The Morning Report

The Morning Report — 8/16/24

Good morning kids. For quite some time, I've led off so many Morning Reports with the statement that this story while revolting in the extreme still no longer shocks me.

Democrat strategist James Carville during a Thursday podcast said Republicans only characterize themselves as Israel supporters because Jews are more white than Palestinians.
Over 70% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents report having a positive view of Israel, while only 44% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents share this perception, according to Pew Research Center in 2022. Carville, on “Politics War Room,” said “racism” is what motivates the views of Israelis and Palestinians in response to a listener’s question regarding the Republican Party’s alleged embrace of “neo-Nazis,” which the listener suggested is inconsistent with the party’s pro-Israel stance.
“It’s really about the misogyny and the racism that drives the thing, and we got to recognize that. It’s not about any policy prescription. And the reason I suspect that most of these people describe themselves as pro-Israel is because the Jews are whiter than the Palestinians, which I think drives a lot of what they are,” Carville said.
The shocking statement ignores the fact that the majority of Israelis are from non-European origins, and that Israeli Jews are often physically indistinguishable from Israeli Arabs or Palestinian Arabs, with Middle Eastern features.

Is it mere pandering to bolster the Muslim base in Michigan and Minnesota, or is this a telltale indicator that he and the party do in fact fear a lack of enthusiasm from the black base, or worse for them, the latter actually voting for Trump. This is the worst kind of racialist poison as it both plays up the race card and sadly an historic anti-Jewish antipathy of blacks towards Jews. Ditto the youth set Einsatz-Groupies who cheered on the slaughter of Jews after 10/7 and attacked them on campuses across the US, and who are also indoctrinated to hate America as a racist colonial illegitimate nation founded on slavery. Convenient how the professoriate omits the crucial detail of which party was the party of slavery and Jim Crow.

Vile though he is, Carville knows what buttons to push.

Ditto, Kamala when she can get the words out in between the cackles. Here's her big idea: you're suffering because of corporate greed and capitalism. Let's let the government control the economy!

Kamala Harris believes she knows the choice before the public in November.
It is between going “forwards” and going “backwards.”
Since the Democratic nominee is wise about the nature of time she insists that this November America should choose to go forward.
In fact it would good if this country could go back.
To the economy we had before Kamala Harris and Joe Biden entered office
Because the most consequential choice there is in this election is between left-wing economics and right-wing economics.
Between the economics of Biden-Harris and the economics of Trump. . .
. . . Today the Vice President is trying to add some meat onto the bones (such as they are) of her economic plans.
These are reported to include efforts to make housing more affordable, lower the costs of living for families, boost small businesses and take on “corporate excess.”
The last of these is simply a left-wing pandering-point.
Anyone hoping to stir up the left-wing base can always paint big bad capitalists and their excessive salaries as the problem.
As though anything you did to tinker with top Wall Street salaries would do a thing for working class Americans. . .
. . . The Democrats like to pretend that Trump’s tax cuts only benefited the rich.
But again that is not just playing the politics of pointless envy.
It is simply untrue.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017) didn’t just massively spur economic growth, it also saw the average taxpayer receive an on-average tax cut of around $1,500.
Hourly and weekly earnings increased by 1.1% between November 2018 to November 2019 alone.
Again — these benefits helped everyone.
Kamala Harris may enjoy talking about minority communities and how much the state needs to help them.
But when Trump was in the White House, he helped African Americans and others to help themselves.
During the first three years of Trump’s presidency median household incomes rose by 15.4% for black Americans and 11.5% for white Americans.

And during the Trump economic miracle more people, especially minorities, got off the welfare rolls and got decent jobs. And since the Junta took control, with an erased border and millions of foreigners invading us, blacks and other minorities along with Americans across the full spectrum of ethnicity, age and gender, have been displaced in the job market, angering them mightily and fueling latent minority discontent with the Democrats.

So along with stoking racial animosity, we have the typical playbook of blaming capitalism and corporate greed. They create the problems by devaluing the currency, trillions in debt and deficits while business do whatever they can to stay afloat to cover their expenses. When the cost to do business goes up, you raise prices and/or cut services or your costs.

But to Democrats, that's greed. And it demands top down control which is the latest brainwave that has failed every time it's been tried being trotted out.

How does presumptive Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris want to tackle high prices?
Cutting red tape? Stop the government from favoring a few companies? Giving us a 100% free market to open competition?
Silly talk! SOCIALISM!! I mean, uh, price control, of course!
. . . No self-respecting economist agrees price controls work, even Democrats and those on the Left.
Besides, Harris won’t provide details. She’ll likely only shout buzzwords to keep the “vibes” going.
Have you seen what Argentine President Javier Milei has done? He’s pulled back the government. Inflation is down (actually down, unlike ours), and housing options have exploded without rent control.

Wish I could take credit for this gem: "Munchausen's by Progressivism"
The Democrat Left cause the problem and everything they do to correct it only makes it worse by orders of magnitude and cedes more of your freedom to the state.

Every problem, dislocation and all the suffering throughout our history has followed this pattern. Whatever is wrong with this nation is the fault of Leftists, socialism progressivism and its home in the Democrat Party, and everyone whoever went along with it or tried to placate them.

Interesting that I write this 50 years after Richard Nixon was forced out of office. He too tried wage and price controls as well as saddled us with the EPA and OSHA. Sadly, the GOP-e of today sees him as a hero since they too love big powerful central government. They delude themselves into thinking they're better managers and can make a totalitarian monster behave and obey the Constitution.

5 Is it mere pandering to bolster the Muslim base in Michigan and Minnesota, or is this a telltale indicator that he and the party do in fact fear a lack of enthusiasm from the black base, or worse for them, the latter actually voting for Trump.

I suspect it's a recognition that the percentage of the "Jewish vote/dollars" that they stand to lose over betraying Israel, or even the outright call for killing Jews, is less than what will be gained from other avenues.

But wait there is more. They had voter fraud for the Hugo Award itself. They determined that 377 votes were fraudulent. To vote you had to register for the con and pay $100, that's some expensive voter fraud.

In the short term, probably. In the long term, probably not.

China's leaders see everything and everyone as a means to enhancing their personal power. The West's "leaders" see everything and everyone as a means to enhancing their personal wealth.

The people in China have no voice. Increasingly, the only people in the west who have a voice are idiots or in on the game.

I know lots of people love DeSantis but the idea that Florida would refuse extradition is fanciful. Not that it would matter since Trump wouldn't force their hand.

54 The body of Trump shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks has 'gone', a congressman revealed in a report last night accusing the FBI of a 'scorched earth' investigation.

Rep. Clay Higgins, a Louisiana Republican who was appointed to Congress' bipartisan task force reviewing the assassination attempt, tried to view Crooks' body on August 5 as part of his own personal inspection

It was at this point that he learned that the FBI had 'released the body for cremation 10 days' after the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13.

Higgins says 'nobody knew' that the body had been returned to the family, including the county coroner and local enforcement. He writes that the coroner still had 'legal authority over the body' when the FBI made this decision and accuses the agency of 'obstruction'.

Unfortunately, it's not doublespeak. They mean "doing as you please", which is a definition going back to Duns Scotus. (He applied it, though, to Satan's Fall.) Hobbes was the main one to push it into the main definition, with lots of help from Rousseau, Nietzsche, and Sartre.

It is now the primary meaning in most people's minds. The unconstrained Will. The contrary view emphasized self-control and recognition of the good, a view which goes back to the Jews and Greeks. (Most good ideas come from those two sources.)

I don't think he believes it even a little bit. But he understands how to motivate his base that does believe it and win elections.

Democrats have been doing this to Republicans for decades because it works. Calling someone a racist even when it makes no sense immediately changes the argument from one based on facts to one based on emotions. It no longer matters what the actions of the parties involved are, it is strictly about race and emotions and it's very difficult to overcome that with the emotional, low IQ lackwits on the left.

That's why the most dangerous thing for Democrats is a guy like Clarence Thomas and why they attack him so viciously. He exposes the lie and they can't have that.

114 NASA seems to have made the decision to send up the next SpaceX with two empty seats. No big announcement, but that is the only way to play it if the astronauts might need to have that option, so that's what is being done. Boeing can still work on Starliner in the meantime.

129 >>“It’s really about the misogyny and the racism that drives the thing, and we got to recognize that. It’s not about any policy prescription. And the reason I suspect that most of these people describe themselves as pro-Israel is because the Jews are whiter than the Palestinians, which I think drives a lot of what they are,” Carville said.

The shocking statement ignores the fact that the majority of Israelis are from non-European origins, and that Israeli Jews are often physically indistinguishable from Israeli Arabs or Palestinian Arabs, with Middle Eastern features.

150 I can sympathize with both NASA and Boeing. NASA lost two space shuttles to "unforeseen" circumstances. Both, only in retrospect, can be attributed to bad decisions.

The Challenger accident, arguably, could have been prevented but it was (like Starliner) a political necessity to launch. It also had been delayed.

The Columbia re-entry disintegration was unforeseen, but likely avoidable had precautions been taken. How the crew on that shuttle would have been rescued is up for debate.

If the teams at NASA and Boeing can figure out how to reprogram the capsule for an automated return to earth, and should it survive intact, I think would be the preferred outcome for all involved.

It's her crowning achievement, Planned Parenthood, that is responsible for killing so many black babies.

162 Pew report: 77% of black voters support Harris compared to 64% who backed Biden in July. on AC 360, CNN.

23 percent support trump is too big! We need that down 13 percent at least. In 2020, 92% of Black voters cast their votes for Biden, a Pew Research Center report shows.

Thanks for the context. I'm sure it is a number of things. Harris knows more than we do and hopefully she can move those numbers in the right direction.

one thing is that so many people have opened small businesses and they aspire to be rich like Trump and not pay taxes. Harris needs to appeal to them in a different way.

I talked with a black voter the other day. He was around 23 yo. He said, "I don't wanna pay $9 for a candy bar". Actually, they're $3.50, but I get where he's coming from.

One wild card is men of all races who won't vote for a woman because they’re insecure assholes who try to overcompensate for their shortcomings through displays of toxic masculinity.

Please leave black folks voting percentages alone. The problem is why do the majority of white people vote against their interests and the interests of the country?

I used to listen to former talk host Ken Hamblin, the Black Avenger. He told a story of commuting by subway from Brooklyn to Manhattan seeing groups of young black men hanging around the subway entrance harassing women and just bullshitting and hanging out. Then after his work shift, coming home and seeing the same faces hanging out in the same place. One of the main reason he wanted to work hard and excel is that he didn't want to end up having such a pointless, feral life. He succeeded.

193 In past elections, I’ve always had a pretty good sense a few months out of who was going to win…
84 – Reagan re-elect was obvious
88 – Bush was obvious after the Dukakis tank ride
92 – Clinton was obvious after Perot dropped out and then back in
96 – Clinton was obvious because Dole was a throwaway candidate
00 – I believed all along W would win; can’t say why other than Gore’s unlikeability
04 – W seemed a sure bet after Kerry was “swift-boated” plus the horse face
08 – Obama was anointed and McCain gave up; there was never an election
12 – Romney gave up after the 1st debate; Obama’s re-election was a fait accompli. It was never gonna be any other way
16 – My first surprise. I did not expect Trump to win
20 – Despite all the eventual shenanigans, throughout the fall I was pessimistic and expected Trump to lose

225 In every country historically it is always the same. Whether Cuba, or Rwanda, or Cambodia or Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia, or Yugoslavia or Maoist China ....

First they have to find a scapegoat. Someone to pin all the problems on. The "otherization" of people based on ethnicity or religion or education.

The same pattern or playbook is always shown. The media and academia get out in front on this. I guess they have deduced that while Whitey is still roughly 60 or 70 percent of the population, so that seems a little optimistic, but they have been thoroughly pussified and emasculated enough to get away with whatever.

They are probably correct. I haven't seen anybody or any organization or government lift a finger to stop any of it, get right down to it. This does help explain ammunition and firearm purchases however.

For the most part, they huddled in their homes in fear of one another. That was the genius of the Stasi - using people against each other, instead of attempting to know everything themselves.

I read an interview with a Stasi agent who turned private investigator in the post GDR era. He talked about the hundreds of thousands of informants they ran.

He said that they had a small number who were ideological, and a small number who had valuable enough info to warrant a payoff here and there, but that for the most part, it was just people looking to get one over on a neighbor or coworker or former lover, or whomever they didn't like. And how once they had you, you'd almost always inform again, lest it come out you did it the one time.

>>Hispanics matter to me

Hispanics are potentially reachable with a standard GOP message, but the illegal immigration issue is a tar baby that the GOP has largely resolved by just throwing in with the donks of let them all in and give them green cards.

Again, the GOP is in a bind as the general platform is not racist or ethnocentrically based, so reaching racial and ethnic groups is going to be tricky as the white population declines and you need groups who vote on race and ethnicity to vote for you.

264 Hey where'd the Fight Fight image go? When is the last time you saw it?"

On my lawn. I have a small sign with the image and the sign says " I stand with and am praying for President Trump." I got it from someone who had a pop up shop selling political signs but I'm sure you can get it online. So far, in a heavily Democrat area nobody had done anything to the sign.

Same as any Democrat. They only refrained from claiming Biden won because they were already hedging their bets against the possibility they might have to remove him soon.

Which turned out to be the right move, because Crooks missed, and they had to shift gears in a hurry after that.

277 We are truly at an inflection point. The PTB are going to make an overt choice between good and evil this election cycle.

Make no mistake about it, Kamala and Walz are the face of evil. They are not "misguided" or have a "differing opinion." Both have used the power of the state to let the public know they're in charge.

The weaponization of government against Americans which came into the open with the J6 prosecution will seem like the good old days.

It has been hot the last week but I’ve been running early morning and it’s not too bad… except for a couple mornings where the humidity was sauna-like… what ticks me off (mildly) is the weather people on the radio always give the “feels like” temperature now… just to make it sound hotter I think.

They tried that with Joe. He was forced out of the race days later.

291 The Democrats near abandonment of blacks isn't playing very well. While the left shifts their love over to the Hispanics and Islamists the black community is livid. It's not getting any airtime, for obvious reasons, but being pushed out of the front of the free shit line is making the black community particularly unhappy.

Trump seems to be tangentially aware of this. It's something I think he should dwell on at some point. Because the MSM is not reporting on it. Any unrest is being subdued and swept under the rug. But it's happening.

There very well may be some spillage next week in Chicago. Regardless of the media's focus on Harris/Walz and their "accomplishments."

>>Good points Thomas, but I still think you put too much emphasis on the Black Vote.

I don't necessarily care about the black vote, much like I don't care about the Jewish vote, these groups are going to vote how they are going to vote and nothing the GOP says or does is going to change that, my worry is that increasingly the white vote is splitting and voting donk, especially white women.

So we seem to be approaching a time similar to the 1930's to the 1990's where the democrat party is the main ruling party of the US, and with institutionalized voter fraud, the GOP will be shut out of the Presidency, so we will have total donk control.

Scary times.

Trump will talk with anyone at anytime about any issue because he can. He knows what he's talking about and can defend his positions.

Harris is an idiot. She's the quintessential DEI hire and just spews the idiotic positions she is told to support without a clue how anything works.

Go back and look at her interview where she is asked to describe the Ukraine war. She's a simpleton who melts under the least bit of scrutiny.

I can recall one day decades ago when it hit 106 degrees and that was an insane level of heat.

353 I don't know anything about polling , but for some reason I was more worried about Biden on the ticket, than I am about Harris. Biden's support was real, and he did appeal to significant swaths of the white middle class. Not necessarily college educated, just "regular folk" whose families "always voted democrat." Harris' support and numbers look kinda fake, with 13% D oversampling and shiite like that. They tried the regular Joe, everyone's dad Walz to pick up the loss, and that is blowing up very well. So ...we shall see if the fraud organization feels good to them.

391 >>How did a mid-sized drama ["It Ends With Us"], with no bankable stars (sorry, Ms. Lively) stand up to the summer’s biggest hits?

AwardsDaily.com suggests Swiftie power put the film over the top. The site says Lively’s girl-bond with Taylor Swift gave the film all the marketing momentum it needed. It’s an unconventional way to boost box office but it’s worth noting considering how films like this have struggled at the box office of late.

Think Toto is missing the power of Colleen Hoover's popularity. At any given week, Hoover has several of her books in the fiction top ten list. She is amazingly successful, and started with self-publishing. "It Ends With Us" is her most popular book, and based on her personal experience with domestic violence.

With so much Hollywood crap, this is a movie that has a built-in fanbase, and a story that is likely a lot more authentic than a Woke/DEI, committee-written story. People are craving well-told stories, and the movies produced from popular books - provided Hollywood stays true to what was written - are much better than almost all the rest of Hollywood's content.

393 NYT: Harris's Debate Prep Is Underway at Howard University. Philippe Reines, a Democratic operative who prepared Hillary Clinton in 2016, is reprising his role as Donald J. Trump in the mock sessions ahead of the prime time matchup on Sept. 10.

IMHO, they over-prepared Biden. He came out spouting numbers he'd memorized instead of going after Trump's lies. If Trump says we approve of post-birth abortions, the solution isn't to point to statistics of how the loss of abortion hurts women. The first answer should be, "What he just said is not true, and he knows it's not true, so he's lying to you." Then, get into statistics.

Actually it should be "You know Don you know it's 'weird' that you would say that kind of lie out loud. She needs to hammer him with the word weird as it's driving him up the wall when she uses it.

No one will fact check Trump, but will check Harris. No moderator has the courage to tell Trump to stop ranting and tell the truth. Harris will be expected to follow the rules and Trump will constantly lie. Hopefully Harris can come up with a 1 liner much like Reagan used on Carter, remember him saying, now there you go again.

Oh yeah, I grew up in Arizona in that dry desert air, cold or hot it’s very light. I remember the first time I came to deep East Texas in the summer, and I was shocked that the air felt like a heavy woolen blanket wrapped all around you.

But West Texas - the Llano Estacado out past Lubbock, the Davis Mountain area, all of that is high dry desert.

399 IMHO, they over-prepared Biden. He came out spouting numbers he'd memorized instead of going after Trump's lies. If Trump says we approve of post-birth abortions, the solution isn't to point to statistics of how the loss of abortion hurts women. The first answer should be,

"What he just said is not true, and he knows it's not true, so he's lying to you."

Then Trump names names of who said it & when.
😂😂😂😂

Kamala is exactly the type of dummy who cannot deliver a line like this. Outside of physical comedy, stupid people are never funny.

Especially when something can so easily be turned on her:

That's weird, when you first ran for Senate you touted your Indian heritage. Where did that go?

That's weird, when I left office inflation was at 1.9% and gas was less than $2. What are they now?

That's weird, the border was almost closed when I left office. How many illegals streamed across during your tenure as border czar?

That's weird, you're suddenly interested in fixing the problems you made worse during the last four years.

Duke’s family had expectations of him: to enthusiastically greet everyone, provide entertainment, and stay awake for at least parts of the day. It’s a lot to ask of a 4-year-old rescue pup.

The family took Duke back to the shelter a few weeks after adopting him, complaining that he was “boring, sleeps all day, and doesn’t get up and greet them when they get home.” It made Duke the first dog to be returned for being “too boring,” according to the shelter that had taken him in.

McCain's family is besties with the Soros family and had some 'dealings' in Ukraine and who knows where else. I would hazard a guess that the most mature republican Senators(12, e.g. Cornyn) that voted for the Inflation 'reduction' Act are guilty of being paid by our communist competition.

Harris is an idiot. She's the quintessential DEI hire and just spews the idiotic positions she is told to support without a clue how anything works.

Go back and look at her interview where she is asked to describe the Ukraine war. She's a simpleton who melts under the least bit of scrutiny.

Just do a search for videos of Trump in front of congress back in the 90's schooling them how bad government policy affects the construction industry. No notes, no prompter. Just him, sitting at a desk rattling off the facts/numbers pertaining to the subject. They all thanked him for his presence. He was no threat to their kingdom back then.

445 Good morning, all. Thanks, J.J.

Unfortunately, as shocking as it is, it's intended to rattle & maybe that's also to have Jewish voters in any number of states (PA, of course) back away from campaigning/voting for Trump.

Carville's a street fighter* but stays slightly at a certain ethical level. With "The Democracy Corps" w/Stanley Greenberg, they've the battleground surveys ("See How Transformed Race Can Deliver Even Greater Change") and other tools. And, as Bannon has his War Room podcasts (UK Guardian, 24 June 2024, Steve Bannon on how his War Room is shaping Republican narratives: ‘We’re relentless. I will never back off’

, Carville & Al Hunt have 'Politics War Room' podcasts.

There's some fabulous political strategists on the "real" right. (Happen to like Stephen Miller though he's yet another tagged by SPLC.) We'll have to trust they're on top of the progressives' twisting of facts & that PDT will have the opportunity to lead us all peacefully to a better USA.
But we all need to do our part volunteering when & where we can, and staying abreast of real news & facts.
