The Morning Report — 10/17/24

ksmalakaze.jpg

Good Morning Kids. Well, Kamala Harris' interview with Fox's Brett Baier was an abject disaster for her. For her to agree to go one on one with him means either he too was in the bag as the known hack leftist propagandists from MSNSDAP, XiNN and the legacy broadcast networks for sure are, or else team Harris detected an opportunity to reach primarily white males who they think or have been led to believe are disaffected with Donald Trump. This is kind of a strange calculus since the usual gaggle of idiots in and outside her campaign are openly freaking out that the usually reliable cohort of black males are not only not enthusiastic about Harris but openly jumping ship to Trump. IF Democrats, have to actively campaign for black males even while fielding a black candidate, you can smell their fear. Is it justified is the question.

As far as the interview goes, it seems to be unanimous that at the very least, she did herself no favors. At worst, it could prove to be an own-goal of massive proportions.

Clearly, going on Fox News was a Hail Mary, and it was bad. You could tell right away it wasn't going to go well for her. She was evasive, often filibustering with word salads to run down the clock and prevent Baier from asking questions she didn't want to answer. The shouting was a terrible look for her. So was talking over Baier, refusing to let him finish asking questions, and then proceeding to pivot away and respond with her rehearsed lines, even when they didn't actually answer the question she was asked. If she didn't want to answer a question, she just didn't. 

And she got nasty at times. She even refused to apologize to the families of women who were assaulted and killed by illegal immigrants allowed into the country thanks to Biden-Harris border policies... It's hard to see how anyone could think this interview went well for her. It was really something to watch. What do you think? Did her Hail Mary work, or did she just blow up her campaign?

Really, how bad was it?

Four Kamala Harris staffers waved their arms pleading to end Harris’s much-anticipated but widely panned Fox News Channel’s Special Report interview, Bret Baier revealed Wednesday night. Baier, who interviewed Kamala Harris, made the shocking revelation during the post-interview broadcast, saying he had many questions he was unable to ask Harris before the interview wrapped. “I had to dismount there at the end,” Baier said, describing the chaotic ending to his interview of Harris. “There are so many things, and she maybe should do more of these.”

. . .Harris’s team quickly began framing the interview as a biased attack on the vice president. Senior campaign adviser David Plouffe whined that Baier’s interview was an “ambush” in a tweet minutes after the interview concluded.

Well, compared to the usual fluffers that Plouffe approves of, actually asking direct, unscripted questions that call into question the real record of the interviewee would naturally be called biased attacks." Well, if she felt as such, she should've said so to Baier, instead of dodge them.

Look, I'm no fan of Fox News, especially these days. They were in the early days actually "fair and balanced" both in how they covered hard news stories (as close to what we think real journalism is supposed to be [the who, what, where, when and why]), and in their punditry and editorials giving more or less equal time to both Left and Right perspectives. That was the secret of their success. Naturally to do that earned them the ire of the legacy media since their job was is and always will be to promote and defend Leftism and attack anyone and anything that exposes it/tem for what it/they are. When Trump came along, unfortunately, Fox was not immune to TDS. Small wonder since as we know, the GOP-e and too many on the so-called right get along and go along with the dismantling of America as founded.


And as Harris and Walz seemingly continue to SUNDOWN, pun totally intended, the only thing left for the Democrats is to continue to blood-libel anyone who opposes them and/or supports Trump as literally diseased:

Donald Trump has been nearly assassinated twice, but that didn’t stop the far-left Salon from claiming Trump and his supporters are “infected” with a “contagious disease” called “Authoritarian Violence Disorder” and that Trump “is a massive superspreader.” (I don’t link fake news meant to inspire assassins, which is what this obviously is.)

Welcome to the Democrat party’s latest edition of assassination porn…Under the headline, “‘Brain flaws’: Understanding MAGA as an epidemic disease” and the subheadline, “Epidemiologist Dr. Gary Slutkin: MAGA is a ‘dangerous and lethal syndrome’ of ‘Authoritarian Violence Disorder,’” we are told Slutkin is “a distinguished epidemiologist, formerly with the World Health Organization.” And under the guise of stopping violence, he fires off this Nazi-style propaganda to inspire violence against Trump and his “diseased” supporters.

Just as Adolf Hitler used “experts” to dehumanize Jewish people as genetically inferior and a dangerous disease, so does Salon use Slutkin…

That's how you get two, or more assassination attempts against Trump in as many months. And we still have a couple of weeks to go until election day and three more months to go until the inauguration. Slightly less until Congress meets to certify the Electoral College results. Just like four years ago.

In a not necessarily unrelated piece:

Scott Hayes, 47, says he lost his job because he defended himself by shooting an anti-Israel attacker who charged through traffic and tackled him in Newton, Massachusetts.
Hayes was charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and released on a $5,000 bail on September 13 after he shot Caleb Gannon, 31, in the stomach the day before. Hayes pleaded not guilty and is arguing that he acted in self defense.
The disabled Iraq War veteran was contracted to provide natural gas leak detection, leak surveys, and inspections for a company that contracts with National Grid, one of the largest utility provider companies in Massachusetts.
National Grid refused to allow Hayes to work on their account after the incident. As a result, his company informed him on Sunday — a month after the attack — that there was no work available, and advised Hayes to file for unemployment.
“National Grid tried to hold me guilty until proven innocent and kept me out of work for one month because of optics,” Hayes told The Daily Wire. “Then, at about the 30-day mark, while I was honoring the hostages, I got a phone call telling me that I should go collect unemployment.”
“As of today, I am jobless,” he added….

At some point, blacklisting will be the least of our worries because with rhetoric like that of this Slutkin, you'll wind up being prosecuted for defending your life while trying to put out the flames on your kids' backs.

REmember, Projetion ain't just a river in Egypt:

So, does VP Kamala Harris think former President Donald Trump will put minorities in camps?

Sure sounds like it according to the answer she gave to a voter during a podcast with Charlamagne tha God.
BOBBY FROM GEORGIA: Could you please respond to Trump’s claim that he’s going to use the alien? Enemies act of 1798 to round up immigrants if he wins the election. This law was last used to put Asian Americans in internment camps during World War II, and I have a sneaking suspicion that if Trump wins, he.’s going to use this law to put anyone that doesn’t look white in camps. And I’m scared.


Remember that quite a few people are still rotting in the Garland Archipelago for merely showing up on 1/6/21 to exercise their first amendment right of free speech to protest what they felt was a stolen election. All the other garbage about insurrection and rioting was just that. The only lives lost were Ashli Babbitt and Roseanne Boyland, murdered by Nancy Pelosi's goons from the Capitol PD and other Deep State agents.

This is where we are heading, folks. And with millions of third world peasants invading us from socialist tyrannies where political repression has been part of the landscape for decades or longer, The Democrats will have lots of help doing the job of Junta enforcers. ¿Can you say Tren de Aragua? Replacement theory, it's what's for desayuno!

Have a good day.

17 The federal judge overseeing the election interference case against Donald Trump directed prosecutors Wednesday to search for and provide to the former president’s lawyers any Justice Department information related to a separate investigation into Mike Pence’s handling of classified documents. Trump’s lawyers had argued that that information could be relevant to their defense o the extent it shows that Pence, Trump’s vice president, had “an incentive to curry favor with authorities” and implicate Trump while facing his own investigation into the retention of classified documents in his Indiana home.

28 I watched the whole interview last night… they put the entire 26 minutes on the Fox News YT site afterwards last night, unedited, no commercials.

My initial reaction: disastrous for her… even discounting substance (there was none), she came across as angry, rude and generally unlikable. No way that swayed any undecideds to her.

This morning I still think the same. But now it occurs to me that her managers didn’t do this to sway undecideds… they know she’s incapable of that. No, this was a continuation of their “energize the base” strategy. They’re still in a mindset of 15-20 years ago when FN was the evil Murdoch conservative bastion. Kamala went in there like a slay queen and smote the dragon!! It excites all the angry cat ladies

Never mind it’s 2024 and most real conservatives can’t stand FN and realize Baier isn’t our friend but he has enough self respect to ask a few obvious questions uncomfortable for her…. If she’s still playing the base card she’s gonna need a ton of cheating…. Think Roy Scheider backing up saying “we’re gonna need a bigger cheat machine”

31 I'd bet the interview *was* an ambush, and that's why Plouffe was so incensed.

There's absolutely no way - in a million years - that Harris's campaign agreed to a clean, unscripted interview.

I haven't seen a Democrat do an unscripted press interview in my lifetime, and they aren't about to start sending their meat puppets in to interviews cold with the least talented politician they've ever fielded.

I suspect someone at Fox said "screw it, we're jumping ship, tell the tubby creep to stick the knife in her back and twist it."

Maybe this is just how the Party's decided to put an end to her abysmal disappointment of a career after all the time, money, and effort they've put into her.

They didn't have to install her in place of Brandon. They didn't have to put that retard Walz in the second spot. But they did these things. After they pulled their last little coup, they could have run Lord Voldemort and the Hamburglar, and it would have been a better ticket than this.

64 42 Democratic Senator Tammy Baldwin has fallen behind Republican rival Eric Hovde for the first time in a new poll. It's just three weeks until the election on November 5, when voters will decide on the next president of the United States and the composition of the Senate.

Harris: Donald Trump has been running for President for 3 and a half years, you know what I'm saying.
Baier: No, actually, I don't know.

I wish Baier had hit back when she went on about Trump dividing us. Still, I suspect it won't have gone over well with the undecided voter, assuming they hear anything about it.

whatever else he did, he respected the hell out of her toughness. His face in the end esp after she told him to quit talking...he knew he was interviewing the next President of the United States.

He was emasculated by a woman of color. A leader. Our Future President. He understands now. He sat across from the new center of power in America, the Modern Woman. Right now, he's home, crying into his scotch.

Anywho, we had one requirement when we relocated (eventually to Northern AZ): NO F*CKING HOA. And lived happily ever after ...

Funny you should mention that:
Ontario College of Psychologists cannot find 'social media expert' to publicly re-educate Dr Jordan Peterson | The Post Millenial
The professional licensing board of the Ontario College of Psychologists (the College) determined that due to his social media posts on these topics, Peterson was not qualified to retain his license as a clinical psychologist in the province and that he must undergo a course of re-education. Yet it has been revealed that "there was not a single available 'social media expert' available at hand to take on the task" of re-educating Dr. Jordan Peterson.

By the time Peterson was investigated by the professional body, he had already been struggle-sessioned out of his tenured professorship at the prestigious University of Toronto for refusing to comply with the policy of using students' "preferred pronouns." . . .
The College put him through public shaming and an expensive, lengthy trial, complete with appeals, before determining that his fate was to be re-educated.

The sequence that really destroyed her, I think, was when she was babbling her usual nonsense and then said, "You know what I mean, Bret. You know what I mean."

"Actually, no. I don't know what you mean."

And everybody in America who has wanted to say that for months cheered.

None of that matters to people who saw or will see snippets. She imploded.

And I'm glad Trump didn't step on his d*ck by putting something out, thereby giving her cover.

As for going on Fox for the white guy vote? I tend to believe it was the remaining women swing vote. Fox having the largest audience and Baier news hour draws probably swing independent voters, more female than male.

On another topic:

Some of you might have seen that fake woke canadian shithead "actor" simu loo's stunt on Canada's version of Shark Tank in which he admonished the owners of a small tea-drink company that is modeled and flavored off of Taiwanese "bubble tea" or whatever it's called.

Yeah, the fake "cultural appropriation" bullshit. The tea owners of course groveled and apologized, so fuckthem.

But do you think it was a coincidence that Simu Lu just happened to be a guest "shark" in the same episode in which an oriental tea was pitched by white canadians? The whole thing was planned.

You can tell the numbers are off. They are counting people with 2 or 3 jobs (now at an all time record high) as multiple job holders. The participation rate proves the lie. There are seven million men alone between ages 21-50 who are not in the labor force and probably never will be again.

297 She never would have agreed to that interview without a script. Democrats NEVER do that. They sent her fake questions, and then pulled the rug from under her. Why, I don't know. But that's the only possibility.

298 >>I suspect someone at Fox said "screw it, we're jumping ship, tell the tubby creep to stick the knife in her back and twist it."


FWIW, saw Baier on Hannity (I know) after the interview. He said he studied Kamala's past answers on immigration, on what she would have done/plans to do differently, and a few other key issues. Specifically, how she pretended like the GOP tanked the immigration bill when it was 6 Democrats who defected, how there was 3.5 years between efforts while she makes it sound like they could have done something about the border.

Baier definitely crafted his questions to prevent the evasions she's made in the past, and it really tripped her up. For example, the three girls murdered by illegals, he specified that their murderers were all let in under Biden *before* the immigration legislation vote -- so she couldn't blame them on the law not passing. This is why she glitched so hard. He cornered her.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has seen some of the highest outflows of employees, with many choosing to transfer to the Department of Commerce or Department of Energy, where they feel they will receive less scrutiny.

So how the fuck does someone from EPA know what the job is at Commerce or Energy? And how the fuck can they do the job?

I saw that too, before I watched the actual interview and I agree with your take. Emphasizing that Dems controlled both houses of Congress and therefore the first day bill she likes to brag about was defeated entirely by her own party was a smart take. Baier also emphasized that it was then three whole years before they brought another bill forward, and it was in those years the junta let in all the murderers. And he named their victims! Great question crafting there.

It seems like a very NYC event -- all the city's movers and shakers are there. These are Trump's people (he's known them for his whole life) in Trump's city. Sure, a lot (most?) have now turned on him, but it's still a very familiar event and crowd for Trump. They have a shared history, their families have mingled at other events.

354 Holy crap. This is ingenious.

A San Francisco startup, Pembient, is using biotechnology to 3D print fake rhino horns that match the real ones in genetic makeup. Their plan? To flood the Chinese market, where the demand for rhino horns has driven poaching to critical levels, with these synthetic alternatives. By selling these horns at a much lower price, about one-eighth of what poachers would get for real ones, they aim to make poaching less profitable, potentially saving rhinos from extinction.

The CEO, Matthew Markus, claims their lab-grown horns are even purer than those from wild rhinos, free from modern pollutants. Pembient's strategy is innovative, aiming to disrupt the black market by flooding it with affordable, indistinguishable fakes. They're even planning to introduce a beer in China made with this synthetic horn, perhaps to change how the product is viewed culturally.

While this approach could reduce poaching, it also raises questions about promoting the use of rhino horn in different contexts, which might affect conservation efforts in unforeseen ways.

368 Rachel Madcow is busting out her October scandal and it just so insane. She saus Trump is trying to pay Stormy Daniels to STFU. Are we next going to get Russia, Russia, Russia too?

You can call those opinions, but come on."

Harris is the Liar, not Trump. And she is evil.

You have no idea. She's a contributor to Salon, and believes in God (she says) but told my late husband she believes Jesus lived, but was insane and not the son of God. On my husband's last trip to ATL for a meeting, he took her to dinner, as he always did. He returned home and said, "She's still living in another world. There's an old Stacy Abrams sign in her front yard."

Sigh.

Oh, she's worse than that. Several years ago (before she needed money from us), she told my husband he needed to be sent away somewhere and be deprogrammed. She looked me in the eye a while back and said, "I'm a proud socialist."

It's sad. She is a brilliant writer, but journo school totally changed her.

I watched a show on the mudslide in Colombia in the 80s that buried the town.
The whole thing was terrible. Tragic.
Mud is awful; it becomes like cement once it stops flowing. You can't free yourself.

Woman speaking was missing one leg below the knee.
Story goes, her and her husband were trapped in the mud. They could not free their legs. He said, "I don't want to live if I don't have my legs." 3 days later, he died. She then got a piece of glass and ... that's how she doesn't have part of her leg any more.

I would put water at the top of the list and you need to consider collection, filtration / purification, and storage. Check your monthly *usage* on your utility bills for the past year, and then compare that to the monthly average rainfall for the same time span...

406 Thanks, J.J. and Good Morning, all.

First of all, we are NOT a classless society. Secondly, here in PA the core of Harris' movement is TDS 24/7 & stoking fear. I'm personally convinced the fear is entirely for themselves, and all that is theirs, after their terrible treatment of those who'd dare over at least the past decade to oppose.

Therefore, at some class levels, fear seems to be from citing selected pieces of the Project 2025 tome, adding 'context,' and using it to stoke the concerns of folks having 'less' - broadly defined - so less $, access to medical and/or school services, and so on.

This morning, I saw >The Philadelphia Inquirer, 'Women and Children First,' by Dain Saint, published Oct. 2024 Project 2025 aims to "protect America's families." What does it mean for Pennsylvanians?

There are several subtopics therein; pages of the Project referenced, context by PPH & perhaps other non-profits, government, etc.

407 *Federal education policy should be limited and, ultimately, the federal Department of Education should be eliminated. "Department of Education, Page 319 of Project 2025

(Also) Project 2025 would -
*Severely restrict children's welfare programs
*Eliminate children's school aid programs
*End federal protections for LGBTQ youth
*Restrict access to abortion
*Severely impact women's right to privacy

Again, EACH point listed within the article may have additional page references from within the Project, statistical data, opinion, fact, and so on.

So onto Bucks County, PA: SLATE, Politics, "Gwen Walz’s Big Book-Club Energy" I went to watch the prospective second lady campaign in Pennsylvania. What I saw was telling. By Shirin Ali, Oct 17, 2024

408 ..his ability, to each according to his needs," Karl Marx in his 1875 Critique of the Gotha Programme.

IMO, and depending upon class, barriers are placed to keep outside threats low. 'Family' homeless shelters, food distribution centers, public transportation, daycare & home health businesses are growing by leaps & bounds in SOME areas. Those neighborhoods are changing: less neighborly, more violent, increasingly overtaxed but with public schools showing signs of failure, closing churches, segregated area. Working from home or moving away is often not an option.

Within days in my formerly 'nice' area: A boy was shot & died in a park; a young pregnant woman shot in a popular store parking lot killing her & her unborn child; a car theft & chase resulted in a terrible crash in an intersection of major roads; two drivers were killed (shot or struck) near the foot of I-95 and I476, and a shooting with injuries in a store parking lot - of a nice, middle class neighborhood.

Burden by what is, we now are.

It's happened before & it'll happen again: areas that become unexpected tinderboxes.

IMHO, keep with current governance, the troubles will increase & spread.

America 1st!

409 The View is being their usual nonpartisan, fair group, labeling Trump supporters as a cult, and using pseudo-quotes to trash him, over and over again.
My husband watches it. He actually is relatively fair, for a Democrat, but he just loves the younger ladies - particularly Hostin (nice hair today), and Griffin (she may be a tool, but she dresses nicely and has good hair).
What can I say?
He's a guy. Which explains the MANY men who haven't a clue just how much of a whacko their wife is until they are married. During the courtship phase, the sexual urge drove all common sense out of them.
