17 Legal insurrection site had a nice clip of Trump giving fries to a couple at the McDonalds in PA and the couplemight have been Asian Indian and the husband is saying something like "Thanks for supporting ordinary people" and Trump's reply was, "You're not ordinary." The wife also said that they were praying for him. I'd post the clip but phone is glitchy. Sorry. The commentator at LI said, "This is a clip about Yrump which the media doesn't want you to see."

Our campaign is going but the Democrats have more money and more tech saavy than we do. If I don't win, they need to find a younger candidate and one who's good on social media.

I read that the knucklehead, Timpon, confessed that both he and Red Kammie were now "fatigued".

Duh, yes the restaurant was technically closed (because you can’t just let another random Joe take a 3rd shot at PDJT) but the man was working the fryer and the drive up window giving out free food to real people (on Trump he said over and over)… the man is comfortable in his own skin.

I've seen that movie so many times but I always enjoyed it. A time when we had Hollywood actors who outwardly were great people. Not everyone was a star for playing in some bit movie, only top billers got to be called that.
Eva Marie-Saint was hot but too young for Grant. The movie also had another favorite of mine, James Mason.

111 In case it wasn't mentioned in the book thread, Malleus Malificarum is not just an evil, unjust book that was also banned by the Church. It also takes quotes out of context and gives inadequate footnotes for them.

My favorite scene in N by NW, Cary drunk at the police station. High-larious.

The locusts leave their blue shitholes because the policies they support make them unlivable. Then then settle down in the 'burbs, and run for city council, county commission, dog catcher, whatever. And immediately start bitching about a lack of the very policies they supported that made their previous home a shithole.

Things like diversity in public schools, supporting the alphabet people, soft on crime, green energy and so on. They badger the local community to "get with the program." Soon, more follow. Some in the community give in and join the locusts.

It never ends, unless "they" end.

210 "If you want to ask my view and many economists' [views], the reason that we saw a spike in inflation, which is now going down, was not because of that; [it was] because of corporate greed. Record-breaking profits on the part of [the] food industry, other corporations charging us off-the-wall prices... I think that had a lot to do with inflation."

Bernie is getting kind of lame at this point. Any economist that thinks a corp can cause inflation needs to be left in the woods to be eaten by bears.

It's not the Yankees players I mind. They all strike me as professionals in performance and demeanor. It's Yankeedom I despise: the bullying media, the loudmouth fans, the front-running podcasters.

Here in seacoast NH, the number of yard signs is down from 2020. There was a noticeable uptick in Harris/Wallz signs, but in the last 2-3 weeks more and more Trump/Vance signs are appearing. NH has a close race for governor as well - Kelly Ayotte vs. Joyce Craig. Congressional seats will remain blue, sadly.

266 Kamala's rallies are bought and paid for. GPS tracking of attendees proves it.

October 10th in Arizona, only about 4300 devices showed up for that. Only 531 of those devices were from Arizona. ... less than 3% of the attendees at that rally were y from AZ

September 12th, rally in Charlotte, North Carolina. Only about 5,000 devices showed up . … 3,600 … nearly 70% of the devices there were bussed in from Georgia, mainly Atlanta and 720 of them from Savannah.

September 30th , Las Vegas about 7,000 devices were there, 834 of them were from the Las Vegas area. +/- 1%?
Over 3,000 came from California, 2,300 were from AZ and 134 were from Mexico.

Deep blue New England here and out of the 20 houses here in my neighborhood, half of them have Kamala signs up. No Trump signs despite the fact that I know that 5 of us are supporting Trump (one of them less than enthusiastically)

I've only seen two Trump signs in my community.

Also, the Kamala signs are objectively annoying as piss. "We're not going back", "Vote for Kamala - Of Course".

The faux intellectual and moral superiority of these people makes me want to plow over their shrubbery with my brush guard. But I'm better people than they.

It's relatively cool here, about 65 F., going up to a humid 77 (so the weather mavens say). Since I did not work out earlier, at lunchtime today I plan to walk the circuit of the park across from my office; I'm wearing jeans and have brought my running shoes and socks to change into. A brisk walk for 1.7 miles (I think that's the distance) should be quite nice. Then I'll have lunch at my desk -- and before I know it quitting time will be here!

I don’t know who this accurate 2020 pollster is, but those results make zero sense. Trump winning PA and MI but not NC and AZ?? If Trump wins PA he wins the election plain and simple… and all indications in that state show a huge groundswell for him.

No one thinks it’ll be a blowout. Reagan 84 and Nixon 72 type landslides aren’t possible in the country now with the divided retarded electorate we have… but I suspect Trump will get around 310 EVs and may come close or even eke out a popular vote win (which is meaningless legally but will shut up a lot of lefties so I hope it happens).

The polls ALWAYS say "it'll be REAL close". That's because they have no f-ing clue, and are just taking a guess down the middle. It also supports the narrative for results like 2020, where Biden magically had a razor-thin majority in several "swing states", after a week of manufacturing the necessary number of ballots behind closed doors. The 2020 polls weren't accurate, if they said it was "close".

AZ isn't a genuine "swing state" - it's solid red. NC, VA and even PA might be the same.

It's all about how they're going to undermine the election fraud. It was undermined in 2016 (which also had BS polls), and it's pretty obvious that it will also be undermined in 2024.

The only question is what kinds of shenanigans we'll see as they try to steal it again. It won't be allowed this time.

The mother of a friend of Elon Musk was diagnosed with brain cancer.. her doctor said she only had a few months to live. His friend did some digging…
—— “There’s a drug that’s in trials, where you take this pill and it actually makes the brain cancer go away, literally.. and it cured his mom.”

The drug is called WELIREG… and maybe more people should know about it.

352 Donald Trump, the US presidential candidate from the Republican party, said that he threatened Russian President Vladimir Putin with striking Moscow in the event of an attack on Ukraine. Trump stated this in an interview with The Wall Street Journal.

"I said. ‘Vladimir, if you pursue Ukraine, I will hit you so hard you won't even believe it. I'm going to hit you right in the center of freaking Moscow. I said, 'We’re friends. I don’t want to do it, but I have no choice,’" Trump said in the interview.

According to Trump, Putin responded by saying, "No way."

“I said, 'Way.' I said, 'You’re going to be hit so hard, and I’m going to take those domes right off your head.' Because, you know, he lives under the domes," Trump added.

Former congressional staffers with ties to powerful members of Congress, like Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Republican House Whip Steve Scalise, have worked to influence policy on behalf of Pentagon-designated “Chinese military companies” like DJI, BGI and Huawei. Chinese military companies are those the Department of Defense (DOD) has determined are “directly or indirectly owned, controlled or beneficially owned by” the Chinese military, as well as those that contribute to China’s military-industrial complex.

373 I don't expect a blowout either way, and I don't think most commenters here do, either.

But PA and WI have voted the same way in the eight elections since 1992. And in five of those eight, the GOP vote % has been within a point in the two states. I'd be pretty surprised if they don't vote the same way again, although of course it's possible. And if Trump does win PA, MI, and GA while losing AZ, WI, NC, and NV, and wins ME-2 while losing NE-1, that is an EC tie, I believe. (Someone can correct me if that is wrong.)

And Atlas Intel's polling may have been the most accurate nationally, but some of their state polls were off in 2020, e.g., they had Trump trailing in Florida.

388 During the last week, Vice President Kamala Harris displayed antipathy toward devout Catholics on several occasions. Sadly, her bigoted attitude regarding Catholics is nothing new. In 2018, as a U.S. Senator representing California, Harris questioned Brian Buescher, a nominee for U.S. District Court in Nebraska. According to Harris, Buescher was not qualified to serve on the court because he was a member of the Knights of Columbus. Harris blasted the group for holding “extremist positions,” such as opposing “a woman’s right to choose.”

397 Hundreds of Trump supporters gather in Hanson to protest decision to remove projection on water tower

WCVB.com

HANSON, Mass. —
Hundreds of people gathered in Hanson on Sunday, just down the street from a town water tower that is getting national attention.

The Trump standout in downtown Hanson drew more than 300 supporters, holding Trump flags and signs in support of the Republican nominee.


"This I sense, has hit a nerve with the town," a supporter said.

The standout was sparked by a "Trump 2024" sign that was projected on the town's water tower at night.

When Hanson officials heard about the political ad projected on the municipal water tower, it started fining the anonymous neighbor, now known as Mr. X, $100 a day.

"We just wanted to show our support for Mr. X and his light projection," a supporter said.

The town now uses flood lights to wash out the Trump 2024 projection, adding “the town is going to continue its efforts in trying to dim the image with spotlights and fining the resident each day that the image continues to be projected onto town property.”

Dems are so fearful, they’re now in the Trump-is-worse-than-Hitler stage as Election Day nears

We are now at the Trump-is-worse-than-Hitler stage of the Kamala Harris campaign, with just over two weeks until Election Day.

That’s the word from the Atlantic magazine, where CIA cipher Anne Applebaum wrote another hilarious anti-Trump diatribe last week titled “Trump Is Speaking Like Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini.”

The Atlantic has dedicated itself to destroying Donald Trump and all his works since it was bought by Laurene Jobs, the billionaire widow of Apple founder Steve Jobs, who just happens to be one of VP Kamala’s best friends, and who helped mobilize fellow Democratic donors to topple Joe Biden after his disastrous debate performance in June.

But, like so many Trump Derangement Syndrome operations, Jobs’ efforts are falling flat.

I don't like seeing national polling under a 2% lead, but I see small but significant leads in the Blue Wall. I'd say I'm cautiously optimistic.

Harris has worked way harder the last two weeks, and polling is not indicating that her work is helping.

484 An old pal of mine runs a store in Ashville that was severely affected by the floods. She needs her previously approved SBA loans to be paid out so that she can repair the place and bring it back on line.

BUT, apparently the SBA Disaster Loan program is out of funds and nothing can be done about that until Congress reconvenes -

In January after the election.

Your government not at work.

The Left is convinced (or trying to brainwash their LIV followers) that Trump is melting down. Canceling events because he's tired and losing. And bizarrely on stage because he's old and demented. Failing in interviews and exposing himself as dumb.

There have been two each one day surges to $50/oz. One when the Hunts tried to corner the market ~ 1980 and the second in 2011, when I don't know what happened. In the 90's silver was mostly around $7/oz.

520 Trump Vows to Defeat Inflation and Repeal Harris Law That Screwed Seniors with the Biggest Medicare Premium Increase Ever

The Biden-Harris response has been woefully negligent with the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). They promised seniors that prices would come down if it passed. They even got AARP to spend $60 million to convince the swamp to support it. They rammed it through Congress with Harris’ tie-breaking vote delivering it to Joe Biden to sign into law. However, the IRA did nothing to ease seniors’ financial suffering. Instead, the IRA stole hundreds of billions from Medicare to subsidize electric vehicles

541 “Now I have worked at McDonald’s. I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala, she never worked here,” Trump told reporters on Sunday, according to our Joseph Simonson, who was tagging along with the former president.

The New York Times is up with a report about Trump’s campaign stop, too. To describe it as North Korean would not be hyperbolic.

The paper labels Trump’s…claims about Harris’s alleged McDonald’s gig the new birtherism. “Lacking a shred of proof, he has charged that she never actually worked under the golden arches — recalling his earlier false claim that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States. Mr. Trump’s latest allegation also appears to be false,” reporters Heather Knight and Nicholas Nehamas write.

Left out of the Times story is the fact that the Harris campaign’s claims about Harris’s job have shifted—first, they said she worked at McDonald’s to put herself through school. Then, aides were forced to concede she worked there for a summer “to earn a bit more spending money.” The piece makes no mention of the fact that, as the Free Beacon reported, one of Harris’s biographers was unaware of the job.

548 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J.

Speaking of Google and PA, looked up the house on Google maps because I recalled seeing the filming vehicle drive by July 2024. I knew there'd be a picture from three months ago and then also *Nov. 2020, Oct 2018, and Sept 2007.

What I found was yet another new picture, Oct. 2024, showing the 4 PDT v. Harris signs on the front lawn - NOT a July 2024 picture - in addition to the Nov. 2020 pic - that had also been flipped to show the PDT signs after* the last presidential election - and the 2018 & 2007 pics w/o any political signage.

Overnight, wrote Google and asked, "Why did Google go back and take more pictures of the outside of my home after I put Trump signs up? Was it contracted by my Pennsylvania county?"

Early this AM, the most recent pic was from July 2024, as are the closest neighbors, but for: When I 1st call up MY address, Google flips to a different address (just three #s off) but showing my house, my lawn with the Oct. 2024 PDT signs until my actual address reappears with the July 2024 picture.

FYI: The state’s highest Court adopted a new Congressional redistricting map in time for the 2018 elections.

549 And then> WHYY, Election 2019, 'In historic win, Democrats take Delaware County Council in a ‘clean sweep’ Democrats swept the election for Delaware County Council and district attorney#, taking control of county politics for the first time in 150 years. (#Soros $)

Now life is sooo expensive with consultants to imagine everything! The Board of Health, maybe even a county parking garage... And friendly 'advisory groups' formed for everything, even the exquisite name of the hundreds of acres taken from the Catholic church for a county park (slash buffer from the 'lower' side of the county where illegals ARE allowed to 'be'): It's Delco Woods!

Why does it matter? Ethics. Me & others of my ilk are problems in this county with political signage & should it affect, perhaps, even the sale of our homes in the future? However, OTOH, a member of Delco Council - an attorney btw - and executive director of an environment Heritage Area - can provide advertising for a bank using not just name, but also the Delco Council title, and on Fox News (local) in evenings around the time of the Harris-Trump debate? Tis fascinating in 'Joe's pocket.'

All, imo.
