If they were stolen why did he have them at his home? He would’ve obviously gotten rid of all of them if he was stealing them, but he didn’t…so obviously to read them

Lol

He ran away after just 15 minutes!

Doug Mastriano, panics and flees from his Jan. 6th committee interview after less than 15 minutes in the hot seat — claiming he wants to record it or wait until after the election.

Shapiro has led every poll so far, and led by 10+ in every poll since July.

The lead is even wider for the Dems in the Senate. This sort of surprised me, because Oz is an empty suit while Mastriano has a lot of publicly-stated viewpoints which put him in opposition to the majority of the PA electorate. But there's a lot of evidence that swing voters prefer an honest ideologue of either party to someone who in theory would be more "electable."

The Democrats are going to win big in PA. The republicans shot themselves in the foot with abortion. The silent majority doesn't like that change and will swing hard democratic this time around. No surprise to me. I like Oz, but he has no chance at all. They are making him out to be an extremist with the hate filled ads. Those ads work with women voters and feminine men who vote more on emotion than real policy.

PA is going huge blue. No one's life with change because of it, but that is what we will see happen.

Yeah. The GOP has made it pretty clear that in any state where they have control of the state legislature and the governorship they are going to outlaw abortion now (or at least put in huge restrictions). The majority of the PA electorate doesn't want this (there were traditionally lots of pro-choice GOP voters around Philly - even some in this area) - meaning I can't see a Republican winning again in the state unless/until the Dems lock down the state house or state senate.

It's crazy. There must be something nefarious going on if a nominee loses while pushing policies that the majority of voters disagree with. That just doesn't make sense!!

I agree. The GOP messed up. They are going to get what they deserve. We like freedom. I can’t stand the new bullying Democratic way, but they will win big. My life won’t be affected, but the direction of our country will continue to nosedive. Rising crime homeless everywhere and depression will continue to be the norm.
