Nebraska voters heading to the polls on Tuesday are facing a convoluted Senate primary in which both parties are trading accusations of spoiler candidates intended to manipulate the November general election.

Incumbent U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts (R-Neb.) is up for re-election and defending his seat in the Tuesday primary against several Republican challengers.

Meanwhile, the Democrat primary election has sparked controversy, with candidate Cindy Burbank accusing her competitor, William Forbes, of being a Ricketts plant.

"Pete Ricketts, who is running for reelection, is putting in a candidate loyal to him in the DEMOCRATIC primary — to split the vote against him, so he wins easily. He's running an anti-abortion activist named Bill Forbes, who has posted in support of Pete Ricketts!" Burbank's campaign website states.

Burbank claimed that Ricketts planted Forbes because he is concerned that he will lose his re-election bid in the November general election to independent candidate Dan Osborn.

The Trump administration is investigating the U.S.-funded Ukrainian biolabs that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was previously smeared as "treasonous" and "traitorous" for bringing to the public's attention.

Gabbard issued a video statement while a private citizen in 2022 where she claimed that "there are 25-30 U.S.-funded biolabs in Ukraine. According to the U.S. government, these biolabs are conducting research on dangerous pathogens."

In order to mitigate the risk of breaches at the facilities, Gabbard said that "these labs need to be shut down immediately, and the pathogens that they hold need to be destroyed."

Gabbard was viciously attacked over the video even though days earlier, then-Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland — a woman whose meddling in Ukrainian affairs helped pave the way for the ruinous overthrow of its previous government — admitted that such labs existed.

Joe Biden was stumbling long before he took office. He fell behind in the first three Democratic primary elections of 2020, placing fourth, fifth, and second, respectively.

James Clyburn, South Carolina's lone Democratic congressman, is credited with turning things around for the campaign and propping Biden up by delivering him a timely endorsement and South Carolina's delegates.

Now, Biden's political crutch is poised to lose his own footing.

During a heated meeting on Tuesday, lawmakers on the South Carolina House Constitutional Laws Subcommittee discussed legislation that, if successfully passed by both chambers of the legislature and ratified by the governor, would ultimately redraw the Palmetto State's congressional maps and eliminate Clyburn's district.

New poll reveals 1 in 3 Democrats believe the assassination attempt in April was staged.
Some Democrats refuse to believe their lying eyes, no matter how many attempts are made on Donald Trump's life.

Despite a wounded Secret Service agent, a room full of witnesses evacuated from the premises, and video footage of a gunman on a rampage, a sizeable number of Democrats still do not believe anyone tried to kill President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner last month, a new poll shows.

According to a NewsGuard poll released Monday, 24% of respondents overall and 34% of Democrats believe the WHCD shooting was staged. Even 13% of Republicans believe it was staged.

And that's not all. The poll also revealed that many Americans — 12% of respondents — believe that all three Trump assassination attempts are fake. At 55%, Democrats represent a majority of those who hold that belief.

But they believe the apple cider vinegar squirted at Elevanhan Omar was not staged.

Quote from: DKG on May 12, 2026, 09:58:49 AMAs I have said to cc in the past I will not get drawn into debates on religious texts. But, the problem as I see it with the anti Islam side is they assume all Muslims are devout. There are nominal Muslims just like there are nominal Jews and protestants. I am a nominal Catholic.

I know fundamentalism is dangerous. I have never disputed that. But, just because someone claims a certain religion we should not assume they are in the extremist camp. Everybody is an individual. I know this because I grew up around Muslims.
Brother, your so called Muslim friends secretly hope you get your throat slit.

Quote from: Thiel on May 12, 2026, 01:23:37 PMThe next phase of this should be called Operation Starvation. They will block all Iranian commerce until Iran is forced to return to the negotiating table.

The problem with this strategy is that it can take a few months.
Extending this war will be the reason the Republicans lose the House in November.
