The Morning Report — 9/ 23 /26

good morning Kids. Well, John Oliver is essentially a talentless, tedious, unappealing yammering coprolite, and yet he has a microphone/megaphone.

Left-wing HBO late-night host John Oliver is justifying the outrageous love leftists have for admitted murderer Luigi Mangione, saying anger over UnitedHealthcare’s policies might excuse the devotion liberals show for the killer... “The very fact that one company controls so much of America’s healthcare is what makes it so infuriating when you see just how bad people’s experiences with it can be,” he added, noting that “telling UnitedHealthcare to go fuck itself has become an entire genre of internet video,” Oliver continued in his efforts to wave away any moral concern over the shocking murder.

now do England, asshole! Perhaps anger at the government's absolute near 80-year-long stranglehold on its failing healthcare system is the reason we have Muslim rape gangs rampaging all over! No, obviously it's something else entirely. And yet, wouldn't it be a laugh riot if Oliver took one in the back as he exited the HBO studios. After all, by Oliver's logic there is one party and political movement in this country that controls so much if not virtually all of America's media and cultural industry is what makes it so infuriating when you see just how bad people’s experiences with it can be.

The very people and society that he and his ilk have mocked and attacked as evil, racist and an existential threat to democracy and the planet have thus far done nothing, except vote for Donald Trump three times. He should count himself lucky to have not wound up like United Healthcare's CEO, slaughtered on the pavement. They all should!

In its latest edition, Liberal Currents asks, “What Are Democrats Thinking?” A lot of them are thinking about a dead President Donald Trump, according to a new poll featured in the left-wing digital magazine.
The poll, conducted in partnership with the Center for Strategic Politics, finds about one out of every three Democrats responding would like to see Trump assassinated while speaking at a rally. The survey of 683 Dem voters found 23 percent would feel “very positive” about the violent scenario posed. Another 8 percent would feel “somewhat positive.”
. . .So much for the peace-loving left. . . But apparently military coups are an acceptable way of restoring said democracy and upholding the Constitution, according to a majority of respondents. To “safeguard the Constitution,” . . . “These attitudes are not fringe — they reflect an emergent assassination culture, grounded in far-left authoritarianism and increasingly normalized in digital discourse,” states the report, titled, “Assassination Culture: How Burning Teslas and Killing Billionaires Became a Meme Aesthetic for Political Violence.”

Elsewhere, President Trump spoke at the UN and ripped Turtle Bay a new one!

And while Trump unabashedly puts America’s interests first, his emphasis on action is a clear indictment of the United Nations’ failure to carry out its primary mission: to confront threats to world peace, such as Iran.
The president was even more explicit about his disdain for Turtle Bay’s efforts to impose a “far-left agenda” and for its “globalists,” “rogue” International Criminal Court, Human Rights Council and UNESCO.
Yes, “the United Nations has great, great potential,” Trump allowed; his criticisms aim to save it.
But that requires a massive shift in UN culture — and leadership.

Have a good day.

You can buy just one share, or a lot. Once you have those, you get a piece of the gouge. I wonder why people don't do that.

For the same reasons why Labor unions failed to invest in the companies they were striking. Its easier to have someone with guns and no morals to loot them for you.

Oil has less of an impact on the price of fuel today than the fact that we lack refineries. Eleven refineries have stopped processing crude oil over the last six years, two - both in California - this year alone. To replace that capacity, we've built exactly 0.

Refineries are running at 98% capacity and when something happens to any of them, even temporarily, as happened with the Exxon refinery in Joliet, Illinois, it has a massive impact.

I know you won't just fuck off but do try to have a passing familiarity with what's going on in the world.

I mean, on one had we're being gaslighted into thinking the left is going to sweep the midterms. On the other hand we've got constant agitation from the left to commit violence to push him and his supporters out.

I suppose they could sweep the elections with fraud, and they might, but what's with the generated hype about killing Trump? It's sort of their default state of mind, so why promote it? Everyone knows it.

80 >> Mike Lawler is a partisan hack and Trump sycophant,”

He’s also going to win his House race. Democrats tried to parachute in a DSA candidate who doesn’t even come from the district. Lawler has name recognition and has even frustrated some Republicans with his positions. But he was the driving force behind restoring SALT and has done a lot for his constituents.

And I don’t believe all this Blue Wave crap. We’ve seen this op before. They and the pills are trying to create a feeling of inevitability and suppress turnout. That’s because the only way republicans lose a lot of these races is if people don’t show up.

I guess you can be mad about gas prices and Iran. But what follows from Democrats isn’t going to make that better. In fact it will be much worse. Gas will go down after the election and Iran will capitulate. But electing Democrats will govern you at least two years of hell from the House members and six from the senate.

121 Your trash pickup may now be doing more than collecting garbage. Dallas has been using AI powered cameras mounted on sanitation trucks to scan curbside properties for potential code violations, and the system has already reviewed about 10,000 properties, resulting in roughly 3,700 notices and 57 citations across 34 properties, according to the city and FOX 4. The technology is provided by City Detect and is mounted on brush and bulky waste trucks, allowing Code Compliance staff to flag issues such as illegal dumping, improper set outs and other property conditions while trucks move through neighborhoods. City documents say the cameras do not make enforcement decisions on their own and that cases are reviewed by staff before action is taken, citations are issued only after an in person inspection and notice to the property owner. The program costs about $852,000 per year, while Dallas City Councilman Chad West has raised questions about privacy protections and said about 70% of citations connected to the system have come from predominantly African American neighborhoods.

"Everything is political. All entertainment is political... It's such a bizarre mentality. It's so cowardly."

130 Your trash pickup may now be doing more than collecting garbage. Dallas has been using AI powered cameras mounted on sanitation trucks to scan curbside properties for potential code violations, and the system has already reviewed about 10,000 properties, resulting in roughly 3,700 notices and 57 citations across 34 properties, according to the city and FOX 4.

This is City of Dallas, not HOA, so I'm trying to imagine, other than overhanging brush would trigger a code violation that is identified from a camera in the alley.

Drones on the other hand could spot individuals storing hundreds of used tires, or junk cars and appliances, but that isn't what is reported here.

A guess?
If you're going to steal an election, you need to have set the public's expectation of the win. If the polls showed the GOP candidate ahead, and then suddenly the "found" votes, etc. changed the outcome, it raises suspicion of foul play. Yes, it's still sketchy, but if it conforms with the expected outcome then one figures "well, the Dem was going to win anyway. . ."

Facing widespread and growing opposition to the war in Iran and the malignant cost of diesel and groceries, President Trump attacks the news media. It is classic gaslighting.

Ah, a big splash to the face of cold poetry to start the day. Thanks, JJ. Off and running for a When'sDay.

Really? Widespread an growing? Most people wouldn't even know it was happening but for the media falsely attributing fuel prices to the war.

"malignant cost"

What makes it malignant, dolt? Does it twirl its mustachios and gloat, "Hand over your stinking money, gringos"?

Sneaker company Converse has pulled an ad that was criticized for evoking racist imagery.

Marketing experts and social justice advocates panned the ad as culturally insensitive, with some critics speculating that the spot may have been intentionally crafted to draw attention by sparking outrage.

310 >>“We don’t have a lot of people who are religious here.”
“We’re not a belief-based church.”

What's the point then?

I recall seeing a CNN special on the rise of atheism ~14 years ago, and apparently this has taken over theological schools. For example, Harvard University selected an atheist to be the school’s new chief chaplain in 2021.

It seems there are a lot of people who grew up attending church, have given up on faith, yet still want to go through the motions of a service and coffee hours/potlucks. It's good to have a community, but offensive they pretend their are Christian and the rest of us are not true believers.

311 BTW, because Talarico is winning so bigly, Paxton has agreed to debate him.

Or, more specifically, he agreed to debate but has yet to commit to when, after Talarico begged for multiple debates.

Or, realistically, he's not going to debate him.

Because the race isn't even close.

I keep laughing at the polls showing Talarico in the lead and they're like 600 people.

I think this might be a time when debating him would be a net positive for Paxton.

Trump was roundly - though not universally - condemned as a dummy stupid-head here for debating Biden.

But Trump KNEW that just letting Biden talk to an audience would destroy him.

Likewise, Talarico. Just put a microphone in is face and taunt him once or twice. He'll say what he thinks and that, as they say, will be that.

315 with some critics speculating that the spot may have been intentionally crafted to draw attention by sparking outrage.

I'd be interested if the first complaint that this ad was rayciss came from an alt account for the agency that made it...

316 Good Morning, all. Thanks, J.J.

From above, "Left-wing HBO late-night host John Oliver is justifying the outrageous love leftists have for admitted murderer Luigi Mangione, saying anger over UnitedHealthcare’s policies might excuse the devotion liberals show for the killer..."

John Oliver is a U.S. citizen. He was born in England and originally held only British citizenship, but he officially became a naturalized U.S. citizen in December 2019 after moving to the United States in 2006 and living there on various visas and a green card.

He now holds dual citizenship in both the United Kingdom and the United States. (The U.S. taxes individuals based on citizenship; The United Kingdom taxes individuals based on residence.) Because of the robust US-UK Double Taxation Treaty, mechanisms are in place to ensure such persons would rarely pay tax twice on the same dollar. Instead, they'd generally end up paying the higher of the two tax rates.

317 As a resident of New York and a high-earning television host, Oliver utilizes employer-provided private U.S. health insurance.

Because he is a prominent member of WGA East (Writers Guild of America) and SAG-AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild), he and his family are likely covered by the highly robust SAG-AFTRA Health Plan or the WGA Health Fund.

👉Entertainment industry union plans are notorious for offering excellent nationwide coverage, but they still operate entirely within the private, employer-tied network system that Oliver heavily criticizes on his show.

When visiting the UK, as a dual British citizen, Oliver legally retains the right to free emergency and primary healthcare through the National Health Service (NHS).

He has not publicly declared whether he pays for additional private medical insurance (PMI) in the UK (commonly referred to as "fancier care" via providers like Bupa or AXA Health).

👉 Many wealthy British citizens buy private insurance to bypass long NHS wait times for elective surgeries or specialists, though they still rely on the public NHS for core emergency trauma care.

Guaranteed, he & his aren't getting 'normal' UK medical treatment.

318 Ultimately, while Oliver uses his show to fiercely advocate for a U.S. transition to a single-payer "Medicare for All" style framework, he operates within the premium tier of the existing corporate American healthcare system by virtue of his union employment and wealth. 🎆

Slap that back in his face publicly and frequently.

Good day.

319 A woke “black” and anti-Israel activist has been dubbed the “Palestinian Rachel Dolezal” after she was outed for being a white, Jewish woman who lied about her identity for years. Hannah Gann, a Philadelphia teacher, was forced to confess she was a “white woman of significant privilege and wealth” after fellow lefty activists grew suspicious of her background and confronted her. “I lied about my identity and have been lying for years. I have no Palestinian or Tunisian heritage,” she wrote in a self-aggrandizing apology on Instagram. “I am a white woman of significant privilege and wealth.
