Quick Hits (Mostly on America's Molester Dad Tim Walz)

"We all remember the [Black Lives Matter] riots of 2020 in Minneapolis," he said during a press conference in Steinhatchee, Fla., on Tuesday morning. "Those were riots that Harris egged on and raised money to bail out the rioters with the Minnesota bail fund. And they were riots that Tim Waltz, as governor, sat back and let happen. He sat back and let the city of Minneapolis burn. That city has been gutted as a result of those riots. We would never allow that to happen in the state of Florida. So this is a ticket that really represents the spirit of those 2020 BLM riots."
DeSantis continued, "And you have a very vapid San Francisco Democrat, and then you've got an Ilhan Omar-style leftist, Tim Walz, who has the same policies as his fellow Minnesotan, Ilhan Omar. We do not need an America that represents the failed policies of San Francisco or the failed policies of Minneapolis. We do not need to see poop on the street and cities burning down. That is not a prescription for America to work its way back. And I can just tell you, as governor of Florida, particularly in that 2020--2021 period, people fled those jurisdictions. And they'd come to Florida, and they would tell me about the mismanagement, and about letting the inmates run the asylum and how that just destroyed the quality of life. And so I think it was in that period, you were five times more likely to move from Minnesota to Florida than vice versa, and that's a result of people fleeing those failed policies."

Pivoting to the Secret Service: This is getting harder and harder to accept as "just a series of unfortunate errors."

Bodycam footage from local Pennsylvania police reveal that in the moments after last month's attempted assassination of Donald Trump, an officer says he told the Secret Service to cover the warehouse used by shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks.
The new bodycamera footage was released by the Butler County Police Department, showing the officer who confronted the shooter. (Butler County Police Department)
"I f--ing told them that they needed to post guys f--ing over here...I told them that f--ing Tuesday," said a Butler Township officer in audio captured by his body-worn camera and obtained by the Wall Street Journal.
"I talked to the Secret Service guys. They're like, 'Yeah, no problem. We're going to post guys over here,'" the officer continues.

Tim Walz's very first executive order as Minnesota's Dad was to establish a state office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

Tim Walz issued one executive order in his first month as governor of Minnesota.
One. No issue in the entire state of Minnesota rated this much attention, because Walz was addressing a desperate emergency in our state.
Minnesota, you see, didn't have a Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Council, and he needed to fix that. It was so high a priority for him that he made himself its chair in addition to establishing the council.

Our State must be a leader in ensuring that everyone has an opportunity to thrive. Disparities in Minnesota, including those based on race, geography, and economic status, keep our entire state from reaching its full potential. As long as inequities impact Minnesotans' ability to be successful, we have work to do. Our state will recognize its full potential when all Minnesotans are provided the opportunity to lead healthy, fulfilled lives.
Diversity, inclusion, and equity are therefore essential core values and top priorities to achieve One Minnesota.
For these reasons, I order that:
1. The One Minnesota Council on Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity ("Council") beestablished.
2. The Governor will serve as the Chair of the Council.
3. The Chief Inclusion Officer will serve as the Chair of the Council on behalf of the Governor...
[further racialist bullshit ommitted]

As you can see, Walz made this a whole of government approach, and unlike most politicians he has been following through. Racial preferences have expanded into every bit of government. Even when treating a disease like COVID, being "BIPOC" puts you at the front of the line in getting treatment.

As I wrote at the time, Minnesota cited FDA guidance to justify its brazenly illegal scoring system, which was eventually discontinued.

Minnesota's system did not give extra points to men, even though they were more likely than women to die of COVID.https://t.co/4wfBxwfZJG

17 Is it only day two of my Harris/Walz campaign documentary, Cackle Creature: The Ascent of a Fell Beast? Ja, curse the Fates, it is so. Werner has been drinking heavily since early morning to numb himself to the depravity of the last 24 hours. Walz has yet to be interviewed; his staffers say he is working on a press release concerning his role under Henry, Fifth Of His Name, at the fields of Agincourt. Fear of a disquisition on the merits of longbows versus crossbows in this context led me to accept the delay with gratitude.

The Squad are here in force. The shade of Hunter S. Thompson told America's Muppet, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez that the Green New Deal of her longings was in a pail which he held before her, and her head has been stuck in the same bucket for an impressive duration of time. I am beginning to like the Thompson specter. Ilhan Omar sidled over at the bar and told me that I looked like her brother. Begone, Murder Goblin, I told her, there are fire alarms yet unpulled. Dear Gott, there is not enough cognac in the Cosmos.

110 Weird, ugly, unfunny political cartoon by Clay Jones:
https://tinyurl.com/3jyv35h3

the original quote I believe is being misinterpreted. I believe it is meant to have come out as, “weapons of war that I carried,.. (in war are the only places those weapons are at,) not that he was saying he carried a weapon in war.

But I believe he actually did carry a weapon of war in war. VA.org says a "war veteran" is defined as someone who was deployed to foreign waters or soils by any branch of the U.S. armed forces to participate in direct or support activities against a U.S. enemy. There is not a shred of evidence that anything Governor Walz has said is false.

@HarrisWalzWR Let me clear this Tim Walz "weapons of war" debate up. He did, quite literally, carry a weapon of war in war, according to Department of Defense standards.

Also, Pete Buttigieg is a badass.

@PeteButtigieg Come to think of it, denigrating the worth of a soldier’s service based on whether he deployed to a war zone is… kind of like denigrating the worth of a woman’s citizenship based on whether she happens to have children.

170 The sticky-wicket is apparently if you've been divorced and had a name change. Mrs. Cop had to take a copy of her divorce decree from the alcoholic a$$hole she married out of high school to get her "Real ID" compliant ID card.

Posted by: Retired Buckeye Cop is now an engineer at August 08, 2024 06:51 PM

That may be it as she has never been divorced. I had issues when I went to get my real ID drivers license because I used to have a commercial drivers license that I voluntarily surrendered because I could no longer get a health card. That caused some problems with the system and there was talk about me having to get a background check because all CDL liscenes now require a background check.

Sharon, I don't want to insult you by saying you don't know any stupid people, but here's something I've noticed among the bottom-feeeding LIV's in my neighborhood: dumb people in the modern era vote for Their Man, independent of the history of his party or his congressional backers. They feel an inspiration from that personage's aura. Actual government policies, like taxes and benefits, come from "them," as in "I see They're gonna make us sign up for some more stuff." They do not make the connection between Their President and the actions of the government. So they're likely to vote for anything. I wish this was a joke, but at a certain level, that's it.

The part tha baffles me is only 25% or so say the country is moving in the right direction, yet 44% or so think the Biden administration deserves a second term. This is what I mean. They are not voting for a candidate, they are voting for the party that they think aligns with their beliefs. If they believe in transing kids, global warming, unlimited immigration, Gaza is an open air prison, they are going to vote Democrat no matter how bad their prsonal situation is even though those policies have caused their prrsonal situation.
That is why they are stupid regardless of the education level they achieved.

245 PeteButtigieg Come to think of it, denigrating the worth of a soldier’s service based on whether he deployed to a war zone is… kind of like denigrating the worth of a woman’s citizenship based on whether she happens to have children.
Posted by: Intercepted DU Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at August 08, 2024 06:45 PM (ycI94

I'd say Buttyman misses the point even more than usual. The issue isn't whether someone can honorably serve without ever deploying to a war zone. It's whether one who quits the service and revokes his oath the moment he learns that he WILL be deployed to a war zone, and then lies about it for years for personal gain, is a cowardly simp.

249 Bodycam footage from local Pennsylvania police reveal that in the moments after last month's attempted assassination of Donald Trump, an officer says he told the Secret Service to cover the warehouse used by shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks.

-

Setting aside the suppressed fire that was making the two counter-snipers jump around on the roof and appear to want to flee:

The now-dead shooter was almost certainly Yearick and not Crooks, and he probably never got off a single shot.

Think about it. The SS shooters were watching the cops all around that building and knew something was up. They were ready to go the moment he popped his head up to fire. And they did. There's a video clip of the long haired guy looking at the crowd. That was the first opportunity the SS shooters had to see him over the roof, and he was shot.

He never pulled the trigger a single time. Never had the chance.

262 After 12 years of honorable, non-war theater service, I gave up my commission. It was early 2000. Would I have done the same thing in, say, 2002? No. However, I was in an 0-3 billet (captain), was commissioned in 1991, it took 8 years to make captain, and I was really not looking forward to spending several more years at 0-3 while putting in civilian time to do JAG work because our unit was so understaffed, the division JAG section consisted of me, the XO (LTC), and the commander (COL) - no enlisted help and I got to do almost all the officer work, which meant doing it during the week (and it pissed my civilian boss off when I wasn't available on drill weekends). So I said thanks for the memories.

He was well known by a Danish prince, it is reported. A fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.

Now the bartender has told Werner that break-dancing is part of the Olympics. There was a muted cheer audible from under the bucket that still encapsulates Alexandria Ocasio Cortez's cabeza, yet Werner shares not in the merriment, wondering only if competitive yodelling will follow in its wake. There is an uncle of mine, however, who would fare well thusly. In many a Swiss canton he informed the locals that they had just been served and he was quite willing to bring it. Werner has switched to Everclear, which is on short supply with Frau Kamala being in the vicinity. Ach, the horror, the horror.
