Moar Tea Leaves

Is this a tea leaf? Israel's Minister of Defense has pushed the Biden line on Netanyahu, telling him he couldn't "escalate" the war with Iran.

The day of the American election, Netanyahu fires his ass and replaces him with a stronger man.

Almost as if he doesn't have to appease the Obama-Biden-Harris Iran Chorus any longer.

Long time coming..

Israel's Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has been removed, Israel's Foreign Minister Israel Katz will take the position.

Gallant has been on the outs with the Prime Minister and the entire Likud Party for months, acting like a free agent for Benny Gantz, Biden etc. Gallant accomplished some great operations with the IDF but a Defense Minister needs to have a proper relationship with the Prime Minister in Israel, or else he goes.

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Tuesday, citing statements that "contradict the decisions of the government and the decisions of the cabinet." Gallant's firing comes after months of deteriorating relations between him and Netanyahu, including Gallant criticizing Netanyahu's management of the Israel-Hamas (and now Hamas and Iran) War in media interviews and in the Knesset.

RedState:

"In the midst of a war, more than ever, full trust is required between the Prime Minister and the Minister of Defense," Netanyahu stated, as he laid out his rationale for Gantz's removal while the country was over a year into a war with Iran and its proxies; chiefly Hamas and Hezbollah.

"Unfortunately, although in the first few months of the campaign, there was such trust and very fruitful work, over the last few months, this trust has cracked between myself and the Defense Minister," Netanyahu said.

...

On the other hand, Gallant's cozy relationship with Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin may explain why Israel has refused to share military plans with the Pentagon.<

Exit polling suggests GOP has flipped the Guam legislature for the first time in nearly 2 decades.

Supposedly the mood on CNN is grim.

CNN is trying to put on a brave face but they know.

I just heard someone say "this thing is not over" and it's not even 2PM yet lol

CNN is reporting that Trump voters don't want to be interviewed. Because they fear the social terrorism of the left, of course.

So one point for the theory that Shy Trump Voters are causing pollsters to miss Trump's true level of support.
