Trump/Gabbard2020

That is the only scenario I would be worried about. She doesn't have enough democrats who would vote for her. Maybe the angry crack pot independents but they won't vote for dems anyway.

Fighting in Kurdish-held Syrian town despite cease-fire

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Associated Press journalists are seeing continued fighting in a Syrian town at the center of the fight between Turkey and Kurdish forces, despite a U.S.-brokered cease-fire.

Shelling and smoke could be seen around Ras al-Ayn on Friday morning, a day after Turkey and the U.S. agreed to a five-day cease-fire in Turkey’s offensive.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a war monitor, reports intermittent clashes in Ras al-Ayn, but relative calm elsewhere since the cease-fire.

The agreement requires the Kurdish fighters to vacate a swath of territory in Syria along the Turkish border, largely solidifying Turkey’s position.

Zarrab was the client whose release Giuliani pushed for between Trump and Erdogan.

Is Barr in charge of SDNY?

I'm wondering if anyone knows if Barr had to sign off on the warrants of Rudy's friends. If he is in charge, I have no hope of anything coming out of this.

My wife thinks Joe Biden is a man of integrity

A man who knows how to show people how much he cares about folks. A man who has the gift of healing, who can heal this nation which is what we are going to need. My wife won't let republican smears work in trying to pick our nominee.

Have any candidates expressed concern for our Kurdish allies?

I know Biden had but have any others? Ignore this issue at your own peril.
