Pretty soon the guy who cuts my grass is going to announce
Former Rep. Joe Sestak becomes 25th Democrat to enter White House race
Former Pennsylvania congressman and retired three-star admiral Joe Sestak announced Sunday that he is running for president, becoming the 25th candidate to seek the Democratic nomination. Sestak, a Vietnam War veteran who also served in Iraq and Afghanistan, made his announcement in a video posted to his campaign website.
At his first campaign event in Waterloo, Iowa, Sestak told an audience of four caucus-goers that "Americans want someone they can trust."
"Americans want someone who is accountable to them above self, above party, and above any special interest," Sestak said. "They want a President that has a depth of global experience to restore U.S. leadership to the world and to protect our American dream at home."
Sestak, who served in the Navy for more than 31 years, joins a historically crowded field of Democrats looking to take on President Trump in 2020. In a recent CBS News/YouGov poll of registered Democrats in early primary states, 71% said there are too many choices.
That's a good thing!

Pelosi says White House did not tell her about Iran strike plan
© J. Scott Applewhite/AP Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) meets with reporters before joining congressional leaders at a closed-door security briefing on the rising tensions with Iran, at the U.S. Capitol, on Thursday. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday that she was not informed of President Trump’s plans to strike Iran Thursday night, a military action that he said he called off minutes before it was to occur.
-----------------------------
At a congressional event, Pelosi, second in line to the presidency, was asked if she had been notified by the White House, and she replied, “No.”
Traditionally, House and Senate leadership, and chair and ranking members on the national security-related and other key committees are told about an imminent U.S. military action.
In a statement Friday, Pelosi (D-Calif.) said the United States is “in an extremely dangerous and sensitive situation with Iran. We must calibrate a response that de-escalates and advances American interests, and we must be clear as to what those interests are.”
The speaker added, “we have no illusions about the dangerous conduct of the Iranian regime. This is a dangerous, high-tension situation that requires a strong, smart and strategic approach.”
Senior lawmakers were briefed at the White House about how the United States planned to respond to Iran shooting down an unmanned U.S. drone Thursday afternoon, but no set plans were made at that time.
“During our meeting with the president at the White House, congressional leaders stressed the necessity that we work with our allies and not strengthen the hand of Iran’s hard-liners,” Pelosi said in the statement, adding: “Democratic leaders emphasized that hostilities must not be initiated without the approval of Congress.”
Military action and whether Congress should vote to authorize it have long been a point of contention between Congress and the White House given the constitutionally-mandated authority given to Congress to declare war.

Arkansas woman, 28, sues Hunter Biden for child support claiming he is the father of her baby
Lunden Roberts (shown right with her pregnant sister Randi Jo Bolin), 28, filed suit in Batesville, Arkansas, claiming that Hunter Biden is the father of her child
(Maybe he popped her sister too)
Don't expect to hear much about this from the MSM. After all his father is running for president.
Crack pipe in his rental car, screwing his brother’s wife, just married a woman he knew for only 10 days, and now side babies…and all this is after he got kicked out of the Navy for cocaine use!
Nothing newsworthy here right???
(If this were one of Trump's sons the MSM would have it covered better than skin on an apple)
--------------------
Hunter Biden has been sued in Arkansas by a 28-year-old woman who claims he is the father of her 10-month-old baby
An Arkansas woman has filed a lawsuit demanding child support from Hunter Biden, claiming he is the father of her 10-month-old baby.
Lunden Alexis Roberts, 28, filed the lawsuit in Batesville, Arkansas, last month. It names Biden, 49, as the father of a baby she gave birth to in August 2018, when he was still in a relationship with his late brother Beau's widow Hallie.
Roberts would have become pregnant in the fall of 2017, around seven months after Hunter and Hallie confirmed their controversial romance.
Her lawsuit gives no detail of how she allegedly met the presidential candidate's son and it offers no insight into their apparent relationship other than that they were 'in one'.
The petition, which DailyMail.com obtained on Thursday, is only two pages long.
It gives no details about the infant, referring only to them as 'Baby Doe'.
Lunden's attorney declined to comment on the case.
He told The Arkansas Democrat Gazette that she values her privacy and wants to be left alone but is seeking money from the wealthy, prominent politician's son.
'She really values her privacy. This is a parenting and child support issue between her and Mr. Biden.
'She really does not want this to be a media spectacle. She does not want this to affect Joe Biden’s campaign.
'She just wants this baby to get financial support from the baby’s father,” Lancaster added,' attorney Clint Lancaster said.
He added that they had been in touch with Biden's attorney to settle the issue privately but that that had been 'unsuccessful'.
'We have been in contact with Hunter Biden’s attorney.
'We have attempted to work with Hunter and his attorney to settle this issue but that has not been successful.
'We are attempting to serve Mr. Biden,' he said.
Biden, who made headlines for marrying a South African woman in May after knowing her for just a month, has not commented.
He could not be reached at his company, Rosemont Seneca Technology Partners, on Thursday morning and multiple messages left on voicemails for the many cell phone numbers he is attached to online went unanswered.
At the time the woman became pregnant, Hunter was in a relationship with his late brother Beau's widow Hallie (shown together in August 2017, several months before he is alleged to have impregnated Lunden)
Beau died in May 2015. He and Hallie are pictured in November 2010
Biden married 32-year-old Melissa Cohen in May this year, a month after splitting from Hallie
Arkansas woman says Hunter Biden is the father of her child
The scandal-prone father-of-three was married from 1993 until 2015 when he split with his wife Kathleen.
In court papers, Kathleen accused him of squandering their money on drugs and prostitutes.
TIMELINE OF HUNTER'S RELATIONSHIPS
May 2015: Beau Biden dies of brain cancer
October 2015: Hunter and his wife Kathleen separate formally
March 2017: Hunter and Beau's widow, Hallie, confirm they are dating
April 2017: Hunter and Kathleen's divorce is finalized
Fall 2017: Lunden Roberts becomes pregnant in Arkansas
August 2018: Lunden Roberts gives birth to baby which she says is Hunter's
April 2019: Hunter and Hallie split for unknown reasons
May 2019: Hunter marries Melissa Cohen in Los Angeles a month after meeting her
They separated formally five months after the death of his brother Beau, the adored former Attorney General of Delaware.
He died as a result of brain cancer.
Throughout his treatment, Hunter and his wife Hallie became close.
Friends say they relied on one another for support while going to doctors appointments and helping the family see through the tragedy.
In March 2017, nearly two years after Beau's death and six months after Kathleen and Hunter's formal separation, Hallie and Hunter confirmed they were dating.
Joe Biden and his wife Jill gave the new couple their support, saying they were happy they had found each other in the midst of the sadness since Beau's death.
In April this year, Hallie and Hunter split and the famous family were tight-lipped as to why.
In May, it was revealed that Hunter had married Melissa Cohen, 32, after just one month of knowing one another.
She had been living with a boyfriend until April this year.
Hunter and his first wife Kathleen formally separated in October 2015. She claimed in court records afterwards that he spent their money on prostitutes and drugs

Chris Cuomo sees the handwriting on the wall
Democrats still can't pack an arena like Donald Trump
(But their lead dogs still poll better than Trump)
CNN host Chris Cuomo said it must “mean something” that President Trump is able to pack arenas like his kickoff campaign rally in Orlando on Tuesday while the long list of Democratic presidential hopefuls are still “playing these little clubs in Iowa and New Hampshire.”
Mr. Cuomo opened his show Tuesday night with Sen. Amy Klobuchar, asking the 2020 hopeful, who is polling at less than 1%, whether there’s a lack of enthusiasm on the Democratic side.
“One simple question: Why don’t the Democrats pack stadiums the way this president does?” he asked the senator from Minnesota.
“Oh, but we do,” Ms. Klobuchar responded. “We just have a lot of stadiums we’re packing at the same time with so many people running. I think you’ve seen our candidates throughout the years generate that energy, and you certainly saw it in 2018 when we took back the House.”
Stop here.
I bet 9 out of 10 Americans couldn't tell you who she is. Klobuchar's rallies couldn't fill a phone booth.
Here she is on CNN...really pitiful!

Later in the show, Mr. Cuomo said he disagreed with the senator, saying, “I don’t think Democrats are packing any place the way he is,” Mediaite reported.
“There’s probably 20,000 people at this rally for the president tonight and that is bigger than Democrats are getting so far to be sure,” he said. “Is the size of the rally suggestive of the 60 million plus votes needed to win the next presidential election? No, maybe not. But it has to mean something that as Democrats are playing these little clubs in Iowa and New Hampshire, Donald Trump is playing arenas.
“Yes, this is a sitting president and the Democratic field is largely lesser-knowns, but people were lined up for more than a day in the Florida heat for this rally tonight,” he continued. “We need to see the disconnect between a rally like tonight and reality. This is the only modern president to never see his popularity hit 50 percent and yet he has the biggest crowds at his events.
(Well, Chris...that's because his 50% popularity rating is total bullshit that your network helped propagate)
He’s held almost 60 of these rallies since he took office and it might seem like the only thing he’s done more than these rallies is tweet or play golf.”
Mr. Cuomo went on to argue that Mr. Trump is still able to fill stadiums despite his unpopularity because his divisiveness had “boiled down his base” to the most “ardent and open to the fear and aggression in his message.”
“Pandering to voters’ fears is always a powerful proposition,” he added.
But not as powerful as this:
