Besides France, it's not been a MASSIVE upset in favor of the populist/nationalist right in Europe, it seems.

I know a lot of people will want to celebrate, but the EPP (light blue) is hardly conservative and is, in fact, globalist.

So the gains are limited to the dark blue and black (ECR/ID) groups – currently looking at about one percent up from 2019.

Don't get me wrong, social democrat (progressive) parties are definitely losing the night, but it's not a tidal wave across the continent.Image

This is the most level headed take I’ve seen so far.

🚨BREAKING NOW:

ABOVE THE LAW: Special Counsel Probe Says Biden 'Willfully Retained Classified Material', No Charges Brought Because Joe's an 'Elderly Man With Poor Memory' Who a Jury Wouldn't Convict.



We are adding to this story as we go through the report but this is deeply damning. The details are insane.thenationalpulse.com/2024/02/08/abo…
Folks the details are unreal.

"In his interview with our office, Mr. Biden's memory was worse. He did not remember when he was vice president, forgetting on the first day of the interview when his term ended ("if it was 2013 - when did I stop being Vice President?"), and forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began ("in 2009, am I still Vice President?"). He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died. And his memory appeared hazy when describing the Afghanistan debate that was once so important to him. Among other things, he mistakenly said he "had a real difference" of opinion with General Karl Eikenberry, when, in fact, Eikenberry was an ally whom Mr. Biden cited approvingly in his Thanksgiving memo to President Obama."
"After the vice presidency, Mr. Biden kept these 2 classified notebooks in unsecured and unauthorized spaces at his Virginia and Delaware homes and used some of the notebooks as reference material for his second memoir, Promise Me, Dad, which was published in 2017."

A ghostwriter is also said to have "found" classified material in a rental unit in Virginia, "in a badly damaged box surrounded by household detritus."

Gosh if only someone had gone to this city 6 years ago and made it a major part of their book, warning of what was to come. If only that book was called NO GO ZONES. If only…

Oh wait.
The worst thing about being me is all these political neophytes have no idea how long I’ve been doing this and how much I’ve done across dozens of policy areas…

“Oh hey Raheem is it?”

“Yes.”

“Oh cool you run that website right?”

“The National Pulse yes.”

“Nice. So what did you do before that?”

"It is what it is," Trumps says on Newsmax right now.
"They wanna wear you out, which they can never do... I've never seen anything like it... this is third world country... there were tremendous crowds in Atlanta"
"I went through an experience today that I never thought I'd have to go through..."

Watched Trump on Tucker now gonna watch the debate! Any flash points so far, for those watching?
DeSantis doesn’t sound as nasal as usual and opens strong.
Amusing that Christie and Asa got booed in the intro.

Shit Peter Griffin is low energy from the outset.
