The Morning Report — 11/11 /26

Good morning kids. First and foremost today is Veterans' Day,and so to all who have worn the uniform and most especially those who are still serving in our armed forces, I speak for all of us when I say I salute you and offer my gratitude for your service and sacrifices. My father and two uncles of blessed memory served their country during World War Two, one of whom did not return alive from the Pacific, and we honor him and all those who paid the ultimate price on Memorial Day. Today is set aside for all who served and still serve because without their selfless dedication and love of country we would not have made it to 250 years. So thank you and God bless you.

Surprisingly, or sadly I suppose as a reflection of the state of our nation and society for the first time in many years I'm finding a shocking lack of content reflecting on, let alone even acknowledging, what today is and what it means. But there is this one.

Veterans contribute to our communities in unique ways, with their training, leadership, ability to work as a team, and understanding of what it means to serve a cause bigger than themselves. Their military service may be over, but they still have so much to offer our churches, workplaces, neighborhoods, and families.
Our country doesn’t ask every soldier to give his or her life, but every one of them is willing to. Long before any deployment, service members give up time with their families, months of training away from home, and the stability of an ordinary career, stepping up so the rest of us don’t have to...
...What does honor look like in practice? It starts with how we raise the next generation. At American Heritage Girls, one area of focus for troop life is cultivating a girl’s citizenship as a member of her community, state, and country. That same instinct should shape how every family raises its kids. Teach your children why service members’ positions demand reverence, and why that reverence shouldn’t fade once they’ve retired from the service. At a time when we feel divided over nearly everything, Americans can build the kind of unity that begins by honoring those who have faithfully protected and served.

Well, that is a nice sentiment indeed, but as last week's midterms might very well foreshadow, this may be the last official Veterans' Day holiday we actually celebrate or are allowed to celebrate considering those who "WON" the majority last week view this nation and its armed forces as the moral equivalent of the Waffen SS!

And while we're on the subject of what happened last week, just freaking wow!

In 2024, Kamala Harris won 4,835,250 votes in Texas. In 2026, Gina Hinojosa, the gubernatorial candidate from her party, picked up 5,230,929 votes and James Talarico, the Senate candidate, scored 5,445,156 votes.
Where did Texas Democrats find 395,679 more voters than in a presidential election?
In October, Texas Secretary of State Robert Howden announced the big news. Texas had hit a record 19 million registered voters or specifically, 19,041,684 voters.
Not only was Texas up a whopping 17,119,632, nearly 2 million from its 2022 numbers, but there were now 418,000 more voters than there had been in 2024.
. . . The outcome in Texas was the work of a giant political machine in which tax-exempt foundations passed along money to non-profit groups which then funded local non-profit community activist groups: some of which benefit from government funding aimed at helping minorities. Money moved, sometimes illegally, between C3s and C4s and PACs, violating laws against using non-profits for electioneering, while being focused on one thing: registering voters.
How many of those voter registrations were legitimate? How many of those registered were actually citizens? How many local community organizers ensured that they would be getting more grants by finding dead voters or voters who didn’t exist?

Not a smidgen of corruption or fraud and any suggestion that our elections aren't completely fair and free of fraud is MAGA republican propaganda!!!

Elsewhere, this utter abomination is yet another foretaste of what we are facing.

With the stroke of a pen, California Governor Gavin Newsom has delivered a devastating blow to the rule of law and a cruel insult to the families of murder victims.

Well, looking to 2028, with Greaseball Newsom as a potential frontrunner to be at the top of the ticket in the Democrat Party, I had the thought that with this complete debasement of morality and the rule of law Newsom might have spawned a potential Willie Horton 2.0 advertisement!

Of course this presupposes that he actually does win the nomination and that the GOP along with whoever is at the top of our ticket has the brains to weaponize this and use it to devastating effect as Bush the elder did against Michael Dukakis.

It also presupposes that the Democrats won't steal 2028 like they did 2020 and now several key states last week, and if Texas' fully communized state government decides to join that insane national Poplar vote compact, the Electoral College is effectively abolished and we're screwed, seemingly, forever.

Thankfully, we have the GOP.

Senate Republicans chose current Majority Leader John Thune as minority leader in January. Oof. No one even challenged him, even though the Democrats flipped seven seats and will likely flip two more. Some senators tried to delay the leadership vote, but that failed.

On a more positive note, at least bipedal piece of shit Tom Massie's attempt to impeach Pete Hegseth went down in flames.

Anyway, God bless you veterans and on that note I bid you all to despite all the horrid news and things we are facing, have a good day.

8 Proposition: if the voting fraud theorists are correct, it would follow, based on the democrats' extraordinary success at installing a national fraud infrastructure, that republicans (or any opposition party) will never win another election. This would seem to meet all the criteria of a Constitutional crisis and demand an immediate response from all branches of government. As Congress has shown no willingness to pass legislation to address the starkly evident threats to our vote and ensure the integrity of elections, and as courts are largely corrupt and undependable, it falls to the Executive branch to take action, and with urgency given the imminent resumption of legislative control by the party responsible for implementing the fraud.

Yet I see from the Executive branch only lamentations about the probability of the fraud, with vague, plaintive calls for someone else (i.e., congress) to take action.

In any case, if the proposition is correct, two years are all the remain to save the electoral process and, essentially, the country.

49 As most know I’ve been pouring over the numbers; and I’ve found that the biggest, easily exploited loophole in Texas election requirements was not illegals voting, but rather Legal Resisent Aliens, who are here legally but aren’t supposed to vote. They are given Texas driver’s licenses and all ID, but are not citizens with voting rights.

Texas has generally only required a Drivers license and/or a utility bill to register to vote , but no proof of citizenship. That was an error that none of the Republican leaders cared to notice.

There are currently 5.8 million resident legal aliens in Texas, and the vast majority are from Hispanic countries. Would not have been difficult to focus on this group and find a million or more votes.

And now that Democrats will be in charge of all state law enforcement, no one will ever look into it.

63 Weimar Germany was wracked with street violence as competing party militias battled for control.

The Nazi's SA was only one of many paramilitaries fielded by Germany's political parties at the time.

When Hitler was named Chancellor, he turned the SA into police, granting state power to their violence while criminalizing the others.

He also nationalized the police, which until then had been creatures of their respective state governments.

All of a sudden, violence became a Nazi monopoly and they applied it most broadly against their enemies, except this time with official, legal approval.

Nazi violence became state violence. What was prohibited became mandatory.

I live in SC. I can't stress enough how many unrelenting swarms of people seem to have moved here in the upstate in the past 10 years. It's been constant. And now the results of that are coming to fruition. We will be stuck with Annie Andrews until she croaks or moves on. Guaranteed. As Jr. Black has noticed, and it seems to hold some water, once a red state starts slipping, then comes the first Democrat US Senator, and then slowly the chipping away at the rest of the state unfolds.

She's been taking a lot of heat for not recognizing the impact of what many believe show substantial fraud in TX, but I believe her stance is that it was the perceived economy and ICE deportations that went too far. Don't hold me to that, but I think that's what I've been reading.

132 Doesn't registering non-citizens to vote constitute a form of voter fraud?

Let me tell you a little secret:

Amnesty passed over a decade ago. In fact, as part of the Amnesty deal, illegals get automatic reduced sentencing, tax exemption, free medical, full voting rights, entitlement perqs, and waiving of all licensing, permitting and insurance requirements.

They didn't have to write it down on paper because everyone knows that a piece of paper doesn't have anything to do with reality—they just agreed to moving illegals and other foreigners ahead of you and not bother to notify you.

145 The Socialists - Democrats have quite a following... a cult. A few self-identifying Democrats who were in local contests for county, state or city elections won. But here in Kentucky we remained (mostly) red.

Yet... on various social media sites like Facebook, you'd think otherwise. The crowing from people here about something that happened in Texas, or North Carolina, or wherever is off the charts. And it's laced with threats of violence.

I'm sure it's not all people from around here, and I'm equally sure it's probably bots... but it speaks to how organized the left is with their messaging. While not illegal, it certainly played a factor in the midterm outcomes. We (Republicans in general) need to work on that.

160 That explanation matches the available evidence more than any other.

I believe that post-modernism and post-enlightenment thinking has removed from today's vocabulary any ability to intellectually process spiritual warfare.

So there are only secular half-baked mechanical reasons to attempt to explain spiritual phenomena.

The Scriptures are rich in associating the rise and fall of empires, kings and nations due to spiritual influences. Not just one-offs, but a continuous live stream of change.

Start with the Garden, pass by Egypt and Pharoah's heart being hardened by YHWH, watch as the Assyrians, Phoenecians, Medes, Persia, Greece and eventually Rome all find their births and deaths through spiritual forces. The parable of the soils is really not different.

It just might be true that spirits introduced and nurtured what appears to be a well orchestrated turn in the former US's destiny.

Specific to Texas

She treats Texas results (including James Talarico’s performance relative to prior Democratic candidates) as consistent with historical midterm/wave patterns rather than evidence of unique or decisive fraud. Talarico outpolling Kamala Harris’s 2024 Texas numbers has a clear parallel in Beto O’Rourke outpolling Hillary Clinton in 2018. Large swings among young voters and Hispanics (which she had flagged in pre-election data) and heavy early-voting shares align with the NGO turnout machine she documents nationally, not with machine hacks or midnight dumps.

Viral claims of an FBI raid uncovering tens of thousands of fraudulent Democratic ballots in a Houston warehouse were widely circulating around Election Day 2026 but were independently debunked by the FBI, local election officials, and fact-checkers...

In short, her consistent position is data-driven skepticism of the most dramatic fraud narratives while highlighting real vulnerabilities (lax verification, NGO scale, opacity) and urging focus on institutional reform rather than post-election non-certification.

191 How anyone can think this is truly legitimate is amazing to me.

We are living in a post-ordered society. "Legitimate" has lost its initial definition and is now more loosely understood as This Is How It Is. Adding "truly" doesn't change it. Maybe, to borrow from Scripture "Just Justice" and Whoopie Goldberg "Rape Rape" to distinguish it from today's redefinitions.

Vote fraud is the Perfect Crime because more often than not, it rewards the perpetrator and there is zero possibility that it would be prosecuted. Its a crime that should be done Each And Every Time there is a opportunity, otherwise you are just a Loser and will have to suffer from the tyranny of those who leveraged it to their own advantage.

We should be thinking in terms of how to out cheat the Cheaters, not whine about a dead and buried concept of honor and character.

Honor and Character mean nothing when you are face down dead in a lime pit.

In October 2009, during the Obama administration, WJR radio reporter Ken Rogulski interviewed people in line at Detroit’s Cobo Center (in Michigan) who were seeking financial help with mortgage and utility bills under stimulus-related or similar government assistance programs. People in the crowd commonly referred to it as “Obama money.”

The key exchange with one woman was:

Rogulski: “Why are you here?”
Woman: “To get some money.”
Rogulski: “What kind of money?”
Woman: “Obama money.”
Rogulski: “Where’s it coming from?”
Woman: “Obama.”
Rogulski: “And where did Obama get it?”
Woman: “I don’t know, his stash. I don’t know. I don’t know where he got it from, but he givin’ it to us, to help us.”

It's something entirely different to take undocumented "voters" and provide them with "documentation" in said van prior to voting.

It's still "organized." And it's still "early." But it's illegal.

Legal/illegal does not matter.

Recall the scene from Batman Begins:

Henri Ducard: The will to act.

Laws mean nothing without people in a position of power with the will to enforce them.

Save for Florida, no one is enforcing election (or immigration) laws anywhere in the country.

I don't think social media makes people dumber, as much as it just reinforces ignorance.

Prior to social media, if you had a dumb idea, it remained with you or your small social circle. And people would think "I think X, but pretty much everyone else around me thinks Y, so I must be wrong." And the dumb idea is contained to minimal people.

After social media, now these dumb ideas are spread across the country and across the world. And then it's just an avalanche. As then you get some people thinking "well, wow, if this many people think this, it must be true" and join with the other people with dumb ideas.

Then there's websites and podcasts and TikToks and Instagrams and whatever else out there reinforcing all of these dumb ideas.

And now leftist-trained AI has come along to make things worse going forward.

It's also OK when Haitians are dumped in middle America, then start raping and killing the locals and local wildlife.
However, it's NOT OK when a country decides to kill the violent Haitians who killed his citizens.

230 Good morning, and thank you, J.J.

From above,"...whoever is at the top of our ticket has the brains to weaponize this and use it to devastating effect as Bush the elder did against Michael Dukakis."

Great point! The 1988 presidential campaign of "Bush the Elder" has been widely studied in political science as a masterclass in aggressive, highly effective campaign strategy. (In fact, so widely studied it appears the script has now been flipped against the GOP during several presidential election cycles.) 🤷‍♀️

What I most remember running up to the presidential election was that Mikhail Gorbachev, then leader of the Soviet Union, shifted global perception of the Soviet Union by introducing policies like openness & restructuring, releasing political prisoners, and engaging in friendly nuclear disarmament summits with Reagan.

He was extremely popular in Western media.

OTOH, George H.W. Bush had served as Director of Central Intelligence (CIA) Jan. '76 to Jan. '77 under President Gerald Fold.

During his 1988 campaign and subsequent presidency, critics on ALL sides frequently targeted his intelligence background, pointing to the agency's history of covert

Posted by: L - No nic... at November 11, 2026 09:44 AM (NFX2v)

231 operations, involvement in Latin American dictatorships, and secrecy to frame him as an unprincipled "deep state" operative. (Wikipedia; but it's okay.)

Because Gorbachev was actively humanizing the Soviet Union & dismantling the old Cold War threat, a unique rhetorical window opened for domestic critics. For years, it became common to hear that Bush's past at the CIA represented a greater threat to global peace and democratic ideals than Gorbachev's rapidly reforming of Soviet government. (The Miller Center, more.)

While the evil spymaster label stuck from his worse critics, Bush's foreign policy approval skyrocketed after the resignation of Gorbachev on Christmas Day 1991, and U.S. victory in the 1991 Persian Gulf War.

His approval rating had reached a historical 89%!

The U.S. entered an economic recession in 1990. Though the recession officially ended in March 1991, the economic recovery was slow and painful, as they tend to be.

Despite his popularity in many areas, Bush Sr.'s 1992 re-election campaign was derailed by a sluggish domestic economy, a famously broken tax promise, an aggressive third-party challenger, and a perceived disconnect from everyday Americans.

Posted by: L - No nic... at November 11, 2026 09:44 AM (NFX2v)

232 What happened?
👉🏻The sluggish economy and "It's the Economy, Stupid" made famous by Carville for Bill Clinton's election.
"In order to keep the campaign on message, Carville hung a sign in Bill Clinton's Little Rock campaign headquarters that read:
Change vs. more of the same.
The economy, stupid.
Don't forget health care.[4]" Wikipedia

👉🏻 Bush's 1988, Broken "Read My Lips" Tax Pledge. In 1990, he broke the pledge & negotiated a budget compromise with congressional Democrats that included tax hikes.
👉🏻Ross Perot effect. Perot won 18.9% of the popular vote.
👉🏻 "Out of touch" vs. Clinton's "youthful" charisma.

The critics summarized Bush Sr. failed to articulate a compelling domestic vision.

Like classic Disney, the progressives wait a generation or so and re-release parts or whole of the same. Along with substantial changes in voting, it brings in the audience.

239 Worth separating two things in the Schumer story, because most of the coverage blurs them. Sanders and Slotkin are not really arguing ideology. They are arguing that a caucus which flinched on the March 2025 spending bill after calling it dangerous, and then lost a shutdown fight over subsidies it had picked, cannot credibly promise voters it will deliver anything. That is a competence argument, and it is the same one a lot of people on this side made.
What nobody auditioning for the job will say out loud: the remedies being floated, more subsidies, credits, rent caps, move costs around rather than remove what created them. Van Hollen's demand for an actual contest is the most honest note in the chorus and changes the least. Schumer can lose the job and deserve to. That is not the same as naming the cause, and a better spokesman does not retire it.

Between the crosses, row on row,

The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
