Herschel Walker Implies TIME TRAVEL in Bizarre Admission
Herschel Walker is still trying to defend himself over an allegation that he paid for an ex-girlfriend to get an abortion back in 2009 and the explanations are getting worse and worse. Walker argued in an interview that since the woman making the claim is the mother of one of his children, the $700 check he sent to her could have been intended for child support rather than to pay for the abortion. The only problem for Walker is that the child was born several years after the check was sent. Herschel was on NBC News and said, “she is the mother of my child so you’re going to see my check or somebody giving her a check. So you see what I’m saying? It’s a lie.” Walker was then confronted with a copy of the check. He was asked whether it was his signature, and begrudgingly Herschel said that it was. This means, for Walker’s story to make sense, time travel would have to be involved. The reality, of course, is that Herschel is lying about the entire thing, which is why he can’t come up with an explanation that makes sense.
Republican Hits Stacey Abrams with "Angry Black Woman" Routine
Last night, there was a debate for the Georgia governor’s race between incumbent Republican Brian Kemp, Democrat Stacey Abrams, and Libertarian Shane Hazel. Kemp could not resist implying Abrams was an “angry black woman” at multiple points during the debate. For example, he said, “I know Ms. Abrams is upset and mad,” to which Stacey rolled her eyes, seemingly aware of the trope that was being used. Abrams did exceptionally well during the debate. When asked what the biggest threat facing Georgia was, she said it was Governor Brian Kemp. She explained, “this is a governor who for the last four years has beat his chest but delivered very little for most Georgians. He has weakened gun laws and flooded our streets. He has weakened our privacy rights and our women's rights. He has denied women the access to reproductive care. The most dangerous thing facing Georgia is four more years of Brian Kemp.” Abrams should be up in the race against Kemp by double digits, but sadly, the RCP average of polling has Kemp up 5.5% with three weeks to go before Election Day.

Trump Cracks, Attacks & Warns Jews in Antisemitic Insanity
Donald Trump over the weekend posted antisemitic tropes on Truth Social while complaining about how he doesn’t have higher support from Jewish people. The former president wrote, “No President has done more for Israel than I have. Somewhat surprisingly, however, our wonderful Evangelicals are far more appreciative of this than the people of the Jewish faith, especially those living in the U.S. Those living in Israel, though, are a different story - Highest approval rating in the World, could easily be P.M.! U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel - Before it is too late!” This is a truly disgusting post by Trump, with the idea being that he’s owed something and that something bad will happen to Jewish people if more of them don’t come around to support him. It’s also riddled with lies, as is typical Trump fashion, saying things like he has the “highest approval rating” among Israelis and could be their prime minister if he wanted to. Unfortunately, this antisemitism by Trump has become commonplace so it’s not getting the attention it deserves.

The Most Important Races of 2022
The 2022 midterm elections are now only three weeks away so it’s important to start pinpointing the bellwether and difference-making races that are upcoming. The Pennsylvania governor’s race is a crucial one since if PA is a swing state in 2024, the presidential winner could decide on whether a big lie-supporting Doug Mastriano or a democracy-backing Josh Shapiro is in charge. Luckily, Shapiro is up by as many as double digits in that race. Also in Pennsylvania, there’s a big Senate race that could tip the balance of the upper chamber. John Fetterman is currently up against Mehmet Oz by an average of 3.4% according to the RCP average of recent polling. Another state to watch is Florida. Republican incumbents Ron DeSantis and Marco Rubio have good-sized leads over their challengers, Charlie Christ and Val Demings, but they’re not totally insurmountable. The Senate races in Arizona, North Carolina, and Wisconsin could also tip the balance of power, and so will be key states to focus on during Election Night 2022.
