The Morning Report

The Morning Report — 9/18/24

Good Morning Kids. Wow, has it really been eight years since the Morning Report debuted? A lot has happened to me professionally and personally and what a ride it has been for all of us. First and foremost, my thanks and appreciation to Ace for giving me the opportunity to host this forum, to my fellow co-bloggers for their help and support and most crucially to all of you fantastic commenters whose combination of snark, erudition and knowledge make the Morning Report, IMHO, the best daily forum and news aggregation site out there.

I cannot begin to thank all of you for your support and for being here and making this place what it is.

So, let's start off with a literal bang! While given the fact that we can control the weather, is it really any surprise that Israel could pull off one of the most daring, retaliatory strikes in history. If only it could have prevented the events of 10/7 in the first place, but the IDF and the Israeli people are going to have to sort that out for themselves as to who and what is to blame for that equally massive failure. In any case, given who and what is running this country – Kamalorama Hussein Obama-Harris, is this item really surprising:

Israel did not take responsibility for the pager attack that crippled Hezbollah’s comms and took out a chunk of their officer corps. It certainly did not go ahead and describe how it was done for the media. That’s tradecraft. And you don’t reveal it.
But the New York Times had a report detailing how it happened that same evening. I won’t link to it as it carries the byline of fake news fabulist Sheera Frenkel who had previously carried water for Hamas and lied that the Islamic terror group had not kidnapped and killed three Israeli teens.
The report is described as being based on briefings received by American officials.
The material leaked to the Times comes from “American and other officials briefed on the operation” and the “American and other officials spoke on the condition of anonymity given the sensitive nature of the operation.”
. . .Under Obama, leaks of Israeli operations were standard procedure. But if this was Biden-Harris admin policy, it doesn’t just hurt Israel, it hurts America. The leak undermines claims that we didn’t know about it beforehand. And encourages Hezbollah to target our people as the weaker link in the Oct 7 war. Some officials in this junta clearly don’t care, but they could also find themselves in the line of fire.

Which, considering the players involved, puts this story about assassination attempt #2 – with no doubt more possibly in the wings – in a new light:

Ryan Wesley Routh, the 58-year-old man who is suspected of an assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump, had connections in Iran that are leading some security experts to question if there was Iranian involvement. A New York Times reporter who had interviewed Routh last year wrote on Sunday that Routh was working to recruit former Afghan special operations soldiers who had fled to Iran to go fight in Ukraine. . . The reporter, Thomas Gibbons-Neff, wrote that when he was writing an article on volunteer fighters in Ukraine last year, his former Afghan colleague and friend Najim Rahim had put him in touch with Routh, who he had learned about from a source of his in Iran, a former Afghan special operations soldier. A number of U.S.-trained Afghan special operations forces had fled to Iran after the disastrous Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021. Since those forces were trained by U.S. special operations forces, the Afghan commandos’ escape into Iran potentially delivered “closely guarded secrets on U.S. special operators” to Iran, according to Foreign Policy.

Whether the Iranian connection is merely incidental, there's also this connection worth noting:

A Pakistani national with ties to Iran pleaded not guilty on Monday to charges related to an Iranian plot to assassinate former President Donald Trump.
A federal judge in Brooklyn ordered Asif Merchant detained pending trial at the Monday hearing in which Merchant pleaded not guilty to charges of attempting to commit an act of terrorism transcending national boundaries and taking part in a murder-for-hire plot, according to ABC News.
Merchant pleaded not guilty the same day that another man suspected of targeting Trump for assassination appeared in a federal court in West Palm Beach, Florida. That man, who was arrested shortly after allegedly fleeing from a sniper spot at Trump International Golf Course, was arraigned on charges of possessing a firearm as a convicted felon and possessing a firearm with an obliterated serial number.

So, if I even attempt to connect the dots of Routh and Merchant to Iran that would light up the switchboards in the non-existent wink-wink Nina Jankowicz Merrick Garland Ministry of Truth, nein? Forget the fact that the junta in power and the generationally-embedded anti-American ticks in Foggy Bottom have been trying to replace Israel with Iran as the top dog in the Middle East going back at least as far back as Obama, if not before. Considering what's happening in Springfield Ohio and Obama's culinary proclivities, maybe the word dog is inadvisable in this context.

Meh, who needs Iranian, or Pakistani cutouts when you have a slew of psycho trannies running around, armed to the teeth and hopped up on hatred for enemies the media brainwash them into believing are targeting them.

And speaking of Ministry of Truth:

Democrat Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said in 2022 that there is “no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech.” “Yeah, years ago, it was the little things, telling people to vote the day after the election, and we kind of brushed them off. Now we know it’s intimidation at the ballot box,” responded Walz. “It’s undermining the idea that mail-in ballots aren’t legal. I think we need to push back on this. There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech, and especially around our democracy. Tell the truth, where the voting places are, who can vote, who’s able to be there.”It remains unclear if Walz was speaking about censorship on social media or actual government regulations on individuals spreading misinformation.

The problem is who gets to determine what is and what is not the truth. Well, even a cursory look at human history and tragically even American history will inform you of exactly who gets to be the arbiter.

Well, eight years has been a good long run. And while my doctors are optimistic that I have a very good shot at beating the odds of my cancer returning in the next 10 years or perhaps longer, they told me that I likely could die of something totally unrelated. Probably in prison for writing this column after being denied medical treatment, or food and water.

So here's to another eight years. Meh, it was probably wading through the madness on a daily basis to write this that gave me a brain tumor in the first place!

God bless you all, and have a great day.

So, they want to destroy that.

37 Today we find ourselves in a mire of our own making. Our inaction allowed the tyrants and traitors, those hateful characters bent on our submission to them, to ascend to power with nary a whiff of opposition. At least no opposition that made even the slightest scratch in their armor.

The enemy is well entrenched and supplied. The ramparts and pickets will be difficult to overcome, and to make our position more dire, the enemy is supported by oceans of propaganda bending minds of the simple men of labor to their side. Promises of power and control make nominal Christians into demons and The Devil himself is the puppet master.

70 Limited common sense exceptions for "yelling fire in a crowded theater" and libel.

The government cannot punish you for libel, which is what the First says, but you can be sued by the target of your actions - unless you're famous for some reason.

I'm not sure how the crowded theater thing would work out. Insofar as I am aware, that "exception" exists due to musings of some SCOTUS person and not due to any actual litigation. I've no doubt that if anyone were injured that they'd find some way to charge the perpetrator but I would guess they wouldn't charge them with unlawful speech.

It's very upsetting that those racist, sexist, buffoons who favor literally Hitler and are responsible for every covid death since they're probably filthy vax deniers who sit around all day plotting ways to deny women abortions or murder all the trans people would suggest the media might be culpable in spreading a miasma of hate and fear. -- MSM

NEW - Taiwan's Gold Apollo says Hezbollah pagers made by Hungary partner
Taiwanese company Gold Apollo said on Wednesday that the pager model allegedly used by Hezbollah members that simultaneously exploded and killed at least nine people was made by its Hungarian partner.

Gold Apollo has established a “long-term partnership” with Budapest-based BAC Consulting KFT to use its trademark and the model mentioned in media reports “is produced and sold by BAC,” the company said in a statement after the New York Times reported that its pagers were involved in the blasts.

Vote Early, Vote Often.

Allegedly, as you perform your God Assigned Duty to vote, do so as early as possible so that your vote will be noted and your name put in the "Already Voted" list. This is important since instead of trying to win your vote through emails, door-knocks and phone calls, by voting early you notify the technologically savvy Trump team to focus their resources elsewhere.

By voting early you are taking out insurance on Election Day mischief from the criminal Left, and you are saving the Trump campaign money - but most important you should be seeing fewer contacts begging for your vote.

That said I do, 100% agree that we are experience a verson of American Fascism in our time, but in my humble opinion the American constitution, history and experience is so far from the European context that Our Fascism isn't clarified by referencing the European one of 80 years ago.

Notice in Trump's comment about eating dogs he said “they are eating the pets of people who live there”. The Haitians live there too but they aren’t people to him.

I would guess >50% of mail-in ballots are illegal. Not signed, not dated, no witness if required. Then there is the whole matter of mailed, drop boxed, and who exactly touched the ballot. Then there is the issue that it is very easy for criminals to take legal ballots (Think Mogadishu/St Paul) and vote them in mass.

JUST IN: The feds dumped Haitian migrants in tiny Sylacauga, Alabama. Local leaders were not told in advance. This small Southern town does not have the resources to care for the migrants. Sylacauga is a deep red town in a deep red county. The Democrats are dumping illegals into small towns to cause chaos. They want to destabilize the nation.

Demographic change is a weapon. Many of us have always know this, but now it's clear beyond a shadow of a doubt. The government is deliberately dropping the unassimilable groups of people in tiny communities that are unable to cope, simply out of spite.

JUST IN: Springfield, OH mayor Rob Rue says it would be a strain on city resources for Donald Trump or JD Vance to visit, and ask them to stay out.

Apparently, Trump visiting for one night is a strain, but he and no problem accepting 20,000 migrants into a city with 60,000 residents.

Fortunately my little town is smack dab in the Appalachian mountain range and has highly restrictive zoning which make high density housing almost impossible. If you want to build on the side of a hill you have to control the runoff from the roads, roofs, etc which then eats up half the area they want to build on. The few that have been approved the retaining basins still overflow and flood the roads in a storm.

The next town over on flat land is taking the burden. New housing, no doubt apartments, are popping up everywhere, but little or no parking being provided.

I have bad news for you. Saw Jared Polis on a Sunday morning show, there to talk up Kamala's policies. He was focused on how she would be fixing "the housing crisis." He kept repeating euphemisms like "removing red tape," but when pushed, he let it out that this meant they would be overriding local "barrier" and "red tape" to fast-track building more housing.

Do not have faith in your local regulations and processes - Kamala is planning to have the federal government bypass them as it pleases.

416 Under Obama, leaks of Israeli operations were standard procedure. But if this was Biden-Harris admin policy, it doesn’t just hurt Israel, it hurts America. The leak undermines claims that we didn’t know about it beforehand. And encourages Hezbollah to target our people as the weaker link in the Oct 7 war. Some officials in this junta clearly don’t care, but they could also find themselves in the line of fire.
++++
I don't understand the distinction being drawn here. What is the difference between a leak that changes the risk landscape and burns relationships that happens under Obama, and an equivalent leak that happens under Biden? Or Trump? If leaking is state policy - and the last decade or so has made it clear that it is - then what is the basis of the perceived distinction between one Administration's leaks and another's? How are these different in fact?

418 And now for something completely different:

Reuters: Zimbabwe to cull 200 elephants to feed people left hungry by drought. The El Nino-induced drought wiped out crops in southern Africa, impacting 68 million people and causing food shortages across the region.

Drought means less vegetation for the elephants. They will die slowly of starvation, if the numbers are not reduced. Heartbreaking.

heartbreaking indeed... horrible to think of slaughtering 200 of those magnificent animals much less to eat them? I wonder how many elephants they have in the country?

I love elephants, butt I totally approve that decision. Drought affect the elephant population, and a smaller population is more likely to survive. Meanwhile, failed crops mean people will starve. this is a win-win solution to a crisis.

Poor nutrition. Bad idea in so many ways, least of which is why elephant meat isn’t for human consumption. Avoiding starvation for the hungry can be accomplished with much, much better methods. Murdering elephants for a one-time meal is just plain stupid.

Always and forever on the side of animals over people. Too many people. Not enough elephants.

Fortunately my little town is smack dab in the Appalachian mountain range and has highly restrictive zoning which make high density housing almost impossible. If you want to build on the side of a hill you have to control the runoff from the roads, roofs, etc which then eats up half the area they want to build on. The few that have been approved the retaining basins still overflow and flood the roads in a storm.

The next town over on flat land is taking the burden. New housing, no doubt apartments, are popping up everywhere, but little or no parking being provided.

Posted by: Divide by Zero at September 18, 2024 08:56 AM (RKVpM)

But surely an EV charging point is being installed at each of the limited parking spots, right?

Call me Shirley but if the Leftists are serious about EVs, sooner or later they'll have to include fast EV chargers in office, house, and apartment house building codes. Gosh, that won't add much to everyone's cost burden in Kammie's Opportunity Economy, right? And who pays to repair all the office and apartment building parking lot chargers when they're repeatedly vandalized for fun and copper wire profit?

Just a few more dumb questions.

In those remarks, Prime Minister Fico said the Trump shooting was a “carbon copy” scenario of his own shooting and said political opponents creating a febrile atmosphere of hate bore responsibility for driving easily influenced people to attempt to kill politicians."

Yes, of course.

But take the racism out of the equation. Assume a hypothetical where Zimbabwe was a paragon of racial harmony.

What could Mugabe have done differently? He was a communist. The kulaks had to be purged and their holdings distributed to the beleaguered proletariat.

He would have had to do exactly what he did, and the outcome would have been the same. The deep racism made it easier, and generated the enthusiasm needed to accomplish it and gain tremendous support from Western intellectuals.

Was the Trump Shooting ‘Stochastic Terror’?

If the Democrats dialed-back their screaming that Trump is Evil and Democracy Destruction incarnate, they would lose 99 percent of their current 2024 campaign messaging at every level from city dog-catcher to POTUS.

I don't think it really matters. They took out Kennedy when he was in office. Reagan was shot while in office. Being in office is not going to give Trump some veil of protection he doesn't have now.

Trump is running explicitly to take down the deep state and they are striking back. They will continue as long as he fights and they will do the same to anyone else who tries.

It might help him to beef up his own private protection detail rather than only relying on the people who hate him.

There has already been some push for people to buy actual food and prepare it themselves - to the maximum extent possible. This will further that drive. Eventually, the only people who will buy manufactured food will be the poor, their health will suffer more, and the government will step in to provide them with more (bad) food and the drugs to deal with the symptoms of their health issues... all in return for their vote.

Fourth Street Foods Addresses Misinformation
Charleroi, PA.— 09/17/24 — Recently, Fourth Street Foods has faced unfounded criticism on social media platforms such as X. Allegations claim the company replaced American workers with immigrants to cut labor costs; this is untrue and a complete fabrication. Fourth Street Foods takes pride in being a long-standing part of the Charleroi community, employing both local and international workers. Our mission prioritizes providing safe and valued employment to all, regardless of origin, without displacing American workers. We regret that recent political attention has cast our town negatively amidst rebuilding efforts. It’s unfortunate that our town was not identified in a more positive light as we continue to rebuild a community previously devastated by the departure of foundational industries. Our company's growth supports the community's fiscal health, and we remain dedicated to offering employment to qualified individuals. We appreciate all our employees and look forward to a positive future for both our company and the Charleroi community. For more information, press only: Fourth Street Foods (724) 483-2000 News@fourthstreetbbq.com

517 Remember when 'infrastructure' was a thing? Schools, roads, hospitals, sewer systems all suddenly overwhelmed.
Posted by: Divide by Zero at September 18, 2024 08:34 AM (RKVpM)
++++
You cannot break the assumptions on which infrastructure is built, and expect the infrastructure to survive it.

Sewer infrastructure is rooted on two assumptions for residential areas:
1. 1-2 persons per bedroom
2. Water use scales approximately linearly with sewer demand

You *cannot* break those assumptions and have the system survive. If you suddenly start piling in 5-7 people per bedroom, the system will collapse and you won't be able to afford to expand or repair it adequately (the rates won't cover it, since they're usually bound to and scaled by water unit consumption).

You can also see this problem in AirBnB-heavy areas, where cabins and houses get way more people than assumed.

And they're organizational tools.

Every person who shows up provides contact information. I've seen previous numbers that said 40% or so were irregular voters, at best.

If there's to be GOTV efforts in swing states, rallies are key to building lists of people to contact and get out to vote.

Combine that with the new effort to encourage voting early, and it could be really effective.

545 Had one of my haunted nights, thinking & worrying but one thing stood out: The young GA mom who, reportedly, died of preventable infection due to state's abortion laws.

Unfortunately, the story is being spun & reported with varying "facts" depending upon media. But the one fact is that she had been several weeks pregnant - with twins & possibly > 20 weeks. Reportedly, she drove from GA to North Carolina to a 'clinic' & received pregnancy-ending pills, mifepristone and misoprostol, which she took at home. 'After a few days,' all of the fetal tissue hadn't expelled & complications set in. She wound up in a GA hospital and, as per People Magazine (09/17/24), "But due to Georgia’s stringent anti-abortion laws, doctors didn't proceed with a dilation and curettage — commonly known as a D&C."
...
"However, ProPublica reports that an 'official state committee' reported that doctors waited for 20 hours to operate while they monitored Thurman’s infection — during which time her blood pressure dropped and her organs failed."

And, "According to Georgia law, “no abortion shall be performed if the unborn child has a detectable human

546 heartbeat except (a) in the event of a medical emergency or medically futile pregnancy.”

(BTW, sometime ago, suddenly collapsed from sepsis 2 months after ventral hernia (C-sections) surgery in an excellent hospital. Back at the same hospital, was in the ER 21 hours for stabilization, the taking of infection cultures (72 hrs was needed for accurate reading of what bacteria for appropriate antibiotic treatment) & to locate a bed for admission. For 3 days, I had a mix of antibiotics but the infection wasn't abating. Finally, from the results from the cultures, an effective antibiotic was found & drains placed. Eight months of antibiotics followed and then a 2nd surgery to remove the mesh from the original surgery, 10 months prior.)

Anyway, not about me. I am haunted about what IS the true story behind Amber Thurman's untimely death; there are too many 'contraries' & Qs surrounding it. Linking her death to 'abortion ban' is a stretch. But since blame is being placed, consider the fact that not all, or even some, be placed upon the responding GA hospital.

Amber Nicole Thurman died August 2022. May she RIP. Perhaps education in her name will save others.
