Truth?

"Iranian women are removing their veils right in the heart of Tehran, rebelling against the Islamic moral police.We are witnessing in Iran perhaps the greatest women's revolution of the 21st century and not a single media outlet is covering this."

But a lot of unconfirmed videos have been proven false in these protests, so TBD if accurate.

Surely Walz has enough sense to realize the optics of him dropping out in light of the current fraud accusations. He's essentially throwing himself (and his party) to the wolves. Why on God's green earth can't the Democrats ever get it right when it comes to messaging? Grow some fucking huevos and stop giving MAGA all the ammo. —And this is coming from a Trump-despising Independant.

I think he knows he's got trouble and is going to take the political bullet for all the Democrats.

There is also no way this is just a Minnesota/Somalian immigrant problem. If there's that much fraud, other people have figured it out. Republicans are looking at other states and I assume Democrats are too.

I disagree. There's a big Senate contest in Minnesota this year, an open seat. We should hold it easily, but not if there's a drag on the top of the ticket.

Walz is doing the right thing. He won't run. By July nobody will remember this issue. MAGA will do their thing, but without Walz in the race, this will be a non-issue and the race will reset to what it almost always is and definitely should be this year: a referendum on the party in power.

Also, I suspect Walz doesn't want to run anymore. MAGA is going after Gus now. Walz has had his terms, and he is probably ready for retirement.

While I agree, just imagine what a MAGA would do: deny it, label it a "Democrat hoax," not cooperate with any investigation... and completely get away with it.
It ain't pretty, but you know it's true.
