Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Palate Cleanser: Leftwing Governors Have 10-Kegger Rager in Shared Party House, While Issuing Lockdown Orders Commanding People to Stay Alone At HomeOkay, so no one looks like the governor he's portraying, but if you get past that, it's a hoot. Compare to the millionaire Jake Tapper -- given an exception to continue working, despite the pandemic -- talking with the billioniare Bill Gates who no longer needs to work (but who gets huge checks anyway) about why small businesses must be forced to close for six months and driven into bankruptcy if it saves only one life.

34: When you cast your ballot for President, you are voting for a slate of electors pledged to vote for a candidate. What's happening here is that both Trump's slate of electors and Biden's slate of electors are meeting and casting votes for their respective candidates. Hence "competing" electors -- only one slate will be recognized by Congress.

Drove out to the next county over on Saturday, to take the dogs to the woods. There were all these signs, "We support Sheriff Brown" and they weren't there the previous week. Turns out that he has said he won't support the latest lockdown or mask mandates. Kinda hard when you've turned the area into a tourist economy, to take even those jobs away. The county I'm in will spend more time enforcing this nonsense than anything else they do.

"We are all in this together" means he is willing to have the government do that.
Provided they not tax his accumulated wealth to do so, of course. "Let them eat cake!" is a historical (though probably msm bullshit of its time) thing. So is what came after, which the lockdown/shutdowners may not want to leave as the serfs only option of redress. Posted by: Bete at December 14, 2020 02:53 PM (Ojki1) I'm all on board with a wealth tax at this point. I want it to hurt as many liberals as possible, so i'm saying something like a 30% reoccurring, annual tax on all wealth over $1 million, including your primary residence. We'll sunset it after 10 years. How about that? Posted by: Harry Paratestes at December 14, 2020 02:56 PM (UPoLF) 100
Dr. Jill Biden is more qualified then him, he's a college drop out who ran a successful software company with literally no medical qualifications at all.

"Appropriate," eh? According to whom? Based on what evidence?
I know, I know. But these folks are going to be in for a rude awakening. I don't know if they know how many restaurants, bars, independent shops and the like were able to survive the first lockdown back in the Spring through a combination of burning through precious capital, hope and massive community support (people - I was one of them - who ate a *lot* of carryout food to help restaurants get over the hump, for example). The capital is gone, the hope has been dashed and the community support for this baloney just isn't there anymore. A lot of folks that survived the first time will *not* survive this time. The closures are already tremendous, at least in my area. I know that the people in charge don't care about killing off these businesses and destroying the owners' lives, but eventually they're probably going to care about crashing tax receipts. They can't print money like the feds can. Granted, the feds can print and give it away to the states, but it won't be enough.

>>hy is Gates speaking on any medical issue? He's about as qualified to give opinions about medical policy as Greta is to speak on climate change "solutions."
Because he created a foundation that has pursuits in this area, and thanks to his many, many millions, he has bought his way into leadership roles in various NGOs and other global bodies, such as WHO.

She basically took public information, connected the dots, and let it sit there in all its glory.

In Calif ICU beds are normally 90% full.
Calif now shuts down totally if ICU beds are 85% full. Because.... science. Posted by: Romeo13 at December 14, 2020 03:00 PM (oHd/0) At the beginning of covid (or maybe even pre covid) I remember reading somewhere that hospitals need to be at something like 85% capacity to make money and they aim to be at 90-95%. Obviously the money makers are elective surgeries and whatnot, and not illegal immigrants in the ER with a tooth ache. That said ... I can't find any information on what the "normal" hospital utilization rate is now. But it is strange that the media as a whole is now using the "ICU capacity" when last time we were hearing the "hospitals are at capacity" stuff it was overall capacity. I suspect it's because most hospitals have small ICU's, but could easily convert other areas of the hospital to function as ICU's if needed. But they don't need to, and overall utilization is likely below normal for this time of year due to all of the cancelled elective stuff.

Two contested slates of electors has happened previously in the 1877 election (and I believe other times in a particular state)--thus, if the state legislature so desires, it can choose an alternative slate, no slate, or even submit both slates and let Congress decide. VP Pence has the duty of opening the E.V.'s and can decide which slate to recognize, if any. The stupidity of the MI State Troopers and SOS/AG/GOV in that state is that the law merely specifies that the electors meet at the Capitol today--not where. If MI legislature selects to allow both slates to go forward, the executive has no role in preventing it.
Ostensibly, the idea is that it preserves PDT's court claims post Dec. 18th and prevents courts from declaring electoral disputes moot. May also reach the standing issue that cause Scotus to shoot down the Texas lawsuit. Posted by: whig at December 14, 2020 03:13 PM (pO7gM) 231

If the billionaires plane and yachts are owned by a company or non profit he controls, he's not paying himself any income to cover the costs of those "business expenses." And the company likely doesn't have a lot of "income" either, it's mostly just sitting on assets (cash, stock, rental property, whatever).

Are hospitals really being overwhelmed?
If they are, its not because of COVID. In Tennessee COVID patients are occupying 17.2% of beds. In California, 15.6%. Posted by: Bitter Clinger at December 14, 2020 03:17 PM (Tdp4O) My friend who works ICU in LA says they're swamped with Covid cases, when just a couple of months back they had between 3-5 at any time. == They are swamped this time every year. They stopped testing for flu. Nationally. there isn't enough testing being done for flu to even estimate flu numbers Did you know that covid positive hospitalized respiratory patients test positive for Influenza A and Influenza B if you test them?

Our 15 yr old granddaughter called yesterday asking to come down to visit for a while. She is in Ohio and can't go out, her friends parents are terrified of the Chinese cooties and she can't see them, school is online. She said she just needs a change. So we convinced her parents and she's coming down on the 26th. I feel so bad for the kids of every age, we are making them crazy too.

This is what makes no sense about the decisions (mostly urban) police are making regarding just following orders. When the shooting starts, they've deliberately put themselves between the righteous anger of a heavily armed population and the government enemy, and even if they both prevail and survive, they've chosen the side that is going to print the dollar into oblivion and their pensions will be worthless.

My immediate reaction is to take these people, put them through a wood-chipper, mix the slurry with line, and bury them under a new freeway.
But that's not how the Bible says to treat them. We're supposed to love the sinner and hate the sin. Even as they're literally murdering tens of thousands of our families, friends, neighbors, and fellow Americans. But the Bible says that if we hate other people--even these low-down dirty skunks--we're really saying we hate God. And if we judge them, we're saying we want to replace God's perfect judgement with our own. That's a difficult path to follow; but we know they will be judged according to all their evil deeds unless they repent. I hope I'm tough enough. I pray God will melt MY heart of stone and let me feel compassion for them. So someone send them a Chick or Four Spiritual Laws tract. And let's all of us humble our own hearts, pray for forgiveness, and beg God for revival in America so some more will be saved from what's ahead for sinners...

So we convinced her parents and she's coming down on the 26th. I feel so bad for the kids of every age, we are making them crazy too.

So no income tax at all. That would work just fine. Final value sales tax (no opaque, fraudulent VAT bullshit) of 10% on *new* goods and services. Fine by me. Prebate it if you want to.
The nice thing about sales tax is that it is difficult to avoid, and everyone pays. Yeah, it's regressive, and some argue that that's unfair, but it's also unfair that half of the population pays jack and shit toward the polity, and yet they have a say in how the polity directs the resources toward which they have not contributed.

Trump gives the orders. Joint Chiefs sit on the order and don't disseminate it. Your move. Posted by: rickb223 at December 14, 2020 03:39 PM (fu1JC) I doubt they'd disobey that order. They didn't when GHW Bush invoked insurrection act twice or LBJ 4x. ==== you mean: I doubt they'd disobey that order.

If not already mentioned, my favorite aspect of a consumption tax is that criminals and those who profit in the black market, assuming they live luxuriously and make big ticket item purchases, pay rather than avoid paying taxes (second favorite aspect is it encourages saving).

Nnnnnnghhh..... Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" isn't so great that I have to hear it everywhere I go. Besides, wasn't she a thing like 15 years ago? Posted by: pookysgirl, stuck in the waiting room at December 14, 2020 03:25 PM (nBJch) I can't stand her voice. There's an affected way female pop stars sing these days, I think she sorta started it. All from the diaphragm, belting it out, while going up and down the scale. It's like listening to a chain saw. Posted by: BurtTC at December 14, 2020 03:31 PM (hku12) I much prefer proper singing from the diaphragm, rather than that nasal, from the throat singing that Sheryl Crow, Springsteen et al use. The problem with that modern singing you're describing is that they all want to be Marvin Gaye singing the National Anthem at the NBA finals. HE could get away with it because he was awesome.

Why do you think there's the withholding system? If people had to cut a check for 20%-50% of their income every April, no one would be able to pay and the rage would lead to a general strike in all probability (though, of course, without withholding the tax rates would not be nearly so high).
It only works at all because they hide it by taking it first and making it just a "fact of life." Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at December 14, 2020 03:46 PM (hYcqw) __ Even worse than that. By design HR systems withhold more than they should. So most people get a refund. And a good % of those people think that means they paid no taxes. Even as people are raped by the IRS they're happy to get a $2K check every April that they think is some bonus from the government. Posted by: Asshoes at December 14, 2020 03:49 PM (22mNy) 462

The way you make sure your order gets followed is you talk with a group of loyal colonels and if the general doesn't immediately go tell the people under him to start rounding up antifa and friends you round him up.
The question is whether Trump and his people were making such plans over the summer. Note I was certainly screaming about this - the results of the election were likely to be less important then who controls the loyalty of the military afterwards....
