In this political season Democrats are talking about abortions all the time and heck they say stuff like:
"Abortions should safe, legal and rare"
But it looks like the way things are going heck many of the Democrat candidates' campaigns are turning into:

RUSSIAN PRESIDENT SPEAKS IN MOSCOW VLADIMIR PUTIN 10/27/2022
TASS RUSSIA NEWS STORY
AND PUTIN HAS SOME 'RIGHT' LEFT IN HIM TOO WHEN IT COMES TO TRADITIONAL MORAL VALUES OFFENDNG GLOBALISM AGAIN...
"The modern liberalism has change beyond recognition, into absurdity, when alternative points of view are being declared undermining, and any criticism is perceived as 'Kremlin's machinations': "That's delirious, what have they come to."
The neo-liberal model of the world "a la America" is suffering "not merely systemic, but doctrinal crisis": "They simply have nothing to offer the world except for their dominance."
The West's belief in its infallibility is dangerous, because it is one step away from the "desire of the most infallible to simply destroy those they don't like, to 'cancel' them, as they say." But history will set everything straight and will 'cancel' those who somehow thought themselves entitled to order the world culture around on their own whim.
The global civilization is based on traditional societies with their traditional values, which, unlike the neo-liberal ones, are unique to every country. The West is entitled to have "dozens of genders and gay prides," but must not seek to impose it on others."

And why in the Hell do people have this notion of infallibility in them in the first place as Putin noted in his comments.
It's because people are drunk that's my experience what I see in my own life when I was young I used to be in the "Religious Right" with an attitude of perfection and infallibility but I wasn't Sober or Sane.
My experience applies to folks on the Left as well the militant sexualized, racialized zealots out there fellow drunks, brothers and sisters in intoxication In My Humble Opinion.

THE POPE TALKS PORN-THE JESUS QUESTION?
"Warning against the dangers of having 'temptation in hand', Pope Francis has urged nuns and priests to stop watching porn"
POPE FRANCIS TELLS NUNS AND PRIESTS TO COOL IT WITH THE PORN
Pope Francis is a very controversial topic this Pope has his fans and his foes.
A question seems in order to both sides of the debate over Pope Francis.
Jesus confronted IMHO a lot of angry people out there in two different factions each seeing themselves as "Infallible".
One the Pharisees the legalistic conservative faction.
The other the Sadducees the open-minded moderate liberal faction.
And Jesus challenged both their dogmas he was perhaps tougher on the Pharisees but He was G-d trying to get the Truth out there as I have come to understand it.
If He was among us would he ask the question to each faction?
IF YOU ARE LIBERAL, PROGRESSIVE MODERATE AND OPEN MINDED LGBTQI ETC. ETC. ARE YOU USING PORNOGRAPHY AND HAVING SEX WITH YOUSELF TODAY?
IF YOU ARE CONSERVATIVE, RELIGIOUS A DEFENDER OF TRADITIONAL VALUES ARE YOU USING PORNOGRAPHY AND HAVING SEX WITH YOURSELF TODAY?
Based on my lifetime of experience I say people on both sides are able to answer "Yes" to that question as I see it...
Being drunk means a lot of things I say it means being angry intolerant and trying to force one's beliefs on others.
Vladimir Putin has rightly identified this problem in the Western World and I'm sure there are people on his side of the fence who do the same thing.
There are drunk meetings in Russia, in Israel and in Iran that I am aware of not to mention the US, the UK and so on.

SATURDAY NIGHT HERE IN THE USA
Back with you been on the road ate out the dinner was a Roast Beef Club Sandwich with French Fries the cost for it 9.75 I paid 1.99 for my drink.
Money and spending I have been spending record amounts of money on politics this election cycle but limited to candidates associated with COVID Freedom.
I supported US Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin with four small donations totaling over 100 dollars Ron brought the COVID shot (vaccine) injured to Capitol Hill and that meant something to me.
Those shots were not meant for everyone simple as that.
But the bigger donations go first here in Pennsylvania to Doug Mastriano the Republican candidate for Governor I originally figured I would put in about 700 dollars for Doug but I'm going further with his campaign and I will approach 1,000 dollars before it's over.
Doug has no big time corporate support and none from the Republican Governors Association.
Doug is not a RINO lets face it.
THE FIGHT FOR GOVERNOR OF OKLAHOMA
Among other things the Republican Governors Association has to defend Governor Kevin Stitt in Oklahoma facing a strong challenge from Joy Hofmeister who was a Republican elected as Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Now she switched labels to Democrat and is making a run the "McGirt" Supreme Court decision that caused a firestorm over its transfer of court jurisdiction to Indian tribes and the Federal government in Oklahoma in the background.

YELLOW VESTS PROTEST MARCH IN PARIS SATURDAY 10/29/2022
As political forces ostensibly opposed to President Emmanuel Macron failed to use their majority to censure his government this week Macron pushed forward advocating for "reform" of pensions in France as a means to cut government spending.
Appearing on "France 2" government television Wednesday Macron was adamant that a mechanism must be found to spend less money on pensions by raising the retirement age or by negotiating larger worker contributions to France's pension system.
Macron signaling that he might not push the retirement age all the way from 62 to 65 if people are willing to pay more for pensions...FRANCE 24 NEWS STORY
When the final push comes in the National Assembly this issue has the potential to unite opposing forces but the certainty of opposition unity seemed to fall apart this week.
There were two censure motions on the government with one proposed by the National Rally supported by its assembly members then in a surprise the censure motion of the "Left" union called "Nupes" was supported by the National Rally.
239 of the 577 National Assembly members united in censure of the government.
But the 60 or so members of "Les Republicans" France's "Mainstream" party of the "Right" opted not to support the censure preventing a majority from being achieved.
National Rally leader in the assembly Marine Le Pen noting their abstention as proof of "Les Republicains" secret support for Macron's agenda.
The government again used its Article 49.3 power this week to override the National Assembly and pass a Social Security budget without a National Assembly vote.
THE NEW PRESIDENTIAL OVERRIDE OF THE ASSEMBLY BROUGHT OUT A SMALL GROUP OF YELLOW VESTS PROTESTERS IN PARIS YESTERDAY (FRIDAY OCTOBER 28TH)...
Censure resolutions put out again with the "Left" failing to unite this time its Socialist, Green and Communist factions did not want a censure resolution on the table that might be supported by the National Rally.
This meant that only Jean-Luc Melenchon's LFI faction of the "Left" endorsed censuring the government.

ISRAELI POLITICS: FROM SOCIALISM TO GLOBALISM, THEN AND NOW (ISRAELI ELECTION PREVIEW)
The vision of Israel in the movies of my youth like "Exodus" and "Cast A Giant Shadow" was one of communal farms (Kibbutzim) and indeed the dominant view of those who reached the "Promised Land" up to the time of independence was a socialistic one.
Israel's Parliament was chosen on a proportional basis and the Socialist parties dominated the early elections and the philosophy of David Ben Gurion Israel's first Prime Minister.
In opposition Nationalists getting 15 to 20 percent of the popular vote and Liberals (Free Market Capitalists) an even smaller share.
By 1965 Israel's nationalist leader Menachem Begin was on the move expanding his Herut faction to include Liberals in the "Gahal" coalition. 26 seats won in the 120 seat Knesset (Parliament).
In October 1973 Labor Prime Minister Golda Meir's opposition to a pre-emptive strike before the Yom Kippur War started (under US pressure) would set the stage for Begin's new Likud coalition to win 39 seats in the December 31st, 1973 election...
In the election of May 1977 a 'revolution' in Israel Likud becoming the largest party with 43 seats and leading a government in Israel for the first time with Begin as Prime Minister...ISRAELI ELECTION 1977 VIDEO
Now Nationalists gained more power along with the Pro-Capitalist Liberals in the Likud alliance.
The sea change would help facilitate Israel's military development towards self-reliance with a defense industry of its own.
This would also pave the way for future economic development in Israel including a domestic Pharma industry and a domestic Tech industry.
Now Israel is in the early stages of its own Natural Gas industry coming at a critical time for world energy supplies.
Politics in Israel would move forward into the 21st Century the Labor Party and Likud Party gaining power alternately but eventually Likud under Benjamin Netanyahu's leadership would find itself in power for 12 solid years.
Plenty of scandal allegations along with way involving politicians of all stripes in Israel up to the allegations levelled against Benjamin Netanyahu which find him now involved in a long-running trial.
The once-mighty Labor Party was able one last time with a name change to "One Israel" and the assistance of Bill Clinton political guru Paul Begala to gain a few years of power in 1999 but times were changing.
The party of Israel's traditional labor unions collective farms etc. etc. would find itself up against new realities including mass immigration from Russia following the fall of the Soviet Union and an increasing share of religious Israelis organized politically not to mention new economic developments.
Its decline would become more permanent the Labor Party also associated with the much-reviled Oslo Accords that created the "Palestinian Authority".
Religious Israelis were always organized politically and with their large families and Israel's proportional system of electing its parliaments they would play a significant role in politics.
Some of the religious sticking to traditional lifestyles and dress with others including in their religious faith a mission to settle the new lands Israel acquired after the 1967 Six-Day War particularly in Judea and Samaria (The West Bank).
As Israel entered the "globalizing" world of the 21st Century Centrist political forces emerged in earnest with Ariel Sharon walking from the Likud label in 2005 to be Prime Minister under the new Centrist "Kadima" Party.
Ehud Olmert would follow him as Prime Minister but tensions over retreat from Jewish land settled in Gaza and rocket attacks on Israel would fuel the return of Benjamin Netanyahu to power under the Likud banner.
With various coalitions Netanyahu would serve as Prime Minister for 12 years.
Religious parties representing Orthodox Jews would often be partners in these coalitions but tensions between religious and non-religious Israelis were on the rise.
Journalist and broadcaster Yair "Tommy" Lapid joined the "Shinui" Party in the 1990's which would gain 15 seats in the 2003 election and join the government.
Lapid campaigned openly against religious influence over Israel's governments particularly the spending of government funds for religious activities.
Shunui split up when Kadima took over much of its "Centrist" ideas in 2005.
"Tommy" Lapid died in 2008 but his son media personality Yair Lapid would resurrect the ideals of his father with the new "Liberal-Centrist" "Yesh Atid" party which won 19 seats in elections in 2013.
Yair Lapid became Finance Minister in the next coalition government.
Eventually Lapid would find himself outside of Netanyahu's government and in the opposition.
In the midst of COVID Israel's voters went to the polls in 2021 with the corruption scandal hanging over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and after the vote Netanyahu came up short of being able to form a new government.
Lapid was given the task and eventually was able to forge a new government with tech millionaire and leader of the "Yamina" Party Naftali Bennett.
Bennett was made Prime Minister with Lapid as Foreign Minister and Alternate Prime Minister.
This unusual arrangement included the participation of the United Arab List ("Raam") to help create the narrow 61 seat majority to govern in the 120 seat Parliament.
This marked the first time an Arab party helped form an Israeli government.
What happened was a drifting away of various "Conservative" and "Centrist" factions from Mr. Netanyahu with these groups willing to work with Lapid's "Yesh Atid" and the remaining parties of the "Left" in Israel as well as Arabs in a "Grand Coalition" against Benjamin Netanyahu.
Netanyahu fought back against this new political reality eventually succeeding in prying away a member of parliament here and there to bring the government down emphasizing the Leftist, Secularist and Arab elements of it.
Now the new election and a new Religious-Nationalist party aligned with Mr. Netanyahu's Likud part of a combination that he is hoping will give him 61 seats and leadership of a new government.
Netanyahu plans to bring the two Orthodox religious parties (United Torah Judaism and Shas) into his new government along with a unification of Conservative Religious-Nationalists under the banner of the "Religious Zionist Party".
The party's leading figures Chairman Bezalel Smotrich and lawyer Itamar Ben-Gvir are outspoken personalities who get much media attention and criticism as "extremists".
Both men likely to end up as cabinet ministers in a Benjamin Netanyahu led government if Netanyahu's coalition wins the election.
The Religious Zionist Party also includes the "Noam" faction which advocates for traditional family values and against LGBT activism in Israel.
Polling data ahead of this election gives the Netanyahu grouping 60 seats in an election where any party with 3.25 percent of the popular vote or more is allocated seats in the 120 seat Knesset (Parliament).
The parties aligned with the outgoing government including the Arab "Ra'am" faction only get 56 seats. Another Arab faction "Hadash-Taal" getting four seats in the polling.
As Israel votes the shadow of Russia and Ukraine with the "Globalist" forces led by the United States demanding a united front against Russia and beyond that a more robust opposition to China.
Israel's security cabinet met recently to draft new rules about foreign investment in Israel directly aimed at countering the increasing levels of Chinese investment in Israel.
Israel has been trying to avoid the sale of weapons to Ukraine but just days ago Israeli President Issac Herzog the ceremonial leader doing the job of presenting evidence to the United States of Iranian drone use by Russia in the war in Ukraine.
Mr. Netanyahu is saying he wants to convince Russia to "end the war" in Ukraine and as we see a new Israeli government emerge we have to be on the lookout for what changes if any will surface in Israel's relationship to Russia.
The election on Tuesday (November 1st) and the results emerging into Wednesday November 2nd.

(Updated) Another US railroad union rejecting a tentative contract this week.
The vote by the Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen follows a thumbs down vote by another railroad union earlier this month.
It now appears certain that two other large railroad unions will turn down contract agreements when results are released on November 21st.
The "status quo" periods for the first two unions and the railroads run out on November 19th and December 4th and for the other unions that period is later in December.
The dispute more about working conditions long hours and limited time off for railroad workers than pay.
Earlier this year Joe Biden intervened in the dispute to avert a strike and set up the process now underway.
Events are moving towards a strike by railroad workers or a lockout by the railroads in December.
This would impact freight and passenger railroad traffic nationwide...
