Surprise! Liz Cheney Crony Has Carpetbagged to Missouri to Make a Spoiler Run as an "Independent" Candidate for Senate to Siphon Votes from the Republican.
And He's Being Funded by Former Senator and Establishment Grifter John Danforth
Another neocon attempt to elect a Democrat to Teach Conservatives a Lesson.
He carpetbagged from Virginia to run in a state he had no connection to? Wow. He's a real Liz Cheney-style candidate.
A former senior investigative counsel who worked with Representative Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on the January 6 committee recently moved to Kansas City, Missouri from Virginia with the intention of running as an independent in the 2022 U.S. Senate race. John Wood, a close friend of the Cheney family, officially left his position on the committee in late June and rented an apartment in Kansas City. According to The Heartlander, a Kansas City-based news site, he only registered to vote there on June 18.
"I've been friends with her [Liz Cheney] for a long time. I share her conservative views and her conservative values," Wood said in a recent interview. "But I also share her concern about former President Trump, and I believe deeply in democracy and our Constitution."Even though Eric Schmidtt, not Eric Greitens, won the primary and will contend with the Democrat to be the Missouri Senator, the Uniparty is still going forward with its plan to elect a Democrat. And it's being led by former Senator and current Establishment grifter John Danforth.
... Wood announced his candidacy on June 28 as an alternative to the supposedly "extreme" GOP Senate candidate Eric Greitens, who was leading in the polls at the time.
John Danforth, the former Republican U.S. Senator from Missouri, is backing Wood's campaign with millions of dollars of his own money, and as much as $20 million from his political action committee, Kansas City-based author and journalist Jack Cashill reported in the American Spectator on Thursday. Danforth co-authored an exasperating report last month that dismissed GOP concerns about voter integrity, claiming to make the "conservative case" that Trump lost and Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election. As far back as 2005, Danforth was arguing that the Republican Party was too conservative, telling the New York Times that it had become a party "overtaken by conservative Christians."Some of you may wonder why I'm so determined to purge the remaining Establishment liberal neocons from the party. This is why. They fight us harder than they've ever been willing to fight their friends, the Democrats. They tank our candidates, they work to undermine our policies, they spread nasty stories about us to their leftwing media friends, they spread nasty rumors about our candidates to their media friends and Democrat oppo researcher pals. They attempt to get us deplatformed and driven out of our own party. They intend to make us second-class citizens -- at best. It is time we returned the favor. See the rest of Deb's article for more. Of course, Danforth was an Episcopal minister who fought hard for gay marriage, and shames any Christian and/or conservative who has problems with it. And be sure to read Jack Cashill, who got an interview with this Neocon Plant. He sat down with him, along with Michael Ryan of the Heartlander, who'd broken the story.
In a prior article, Mike wrote that Wood had chosen to run because "he thought failed GOP primary candidate Eric Greitens was too 'extreme.' Yet, even with Greitens out of the race, Wood is still in." I asked Wood why he remained in the race and what he hoped to accomplish. He countered by asking whether we were Republicans. Yes, I told him. I added that I had voted for Eric Schmitt, the Missouri attorney general and the winner of the primary, an "extremist" by no known definition. For the record, Trump carried Missouri by 15 points in both 2016 and 2020. "You can't win," I said to Wood pointedly but still politely. "It seems that all you can do at this point is siphon votes from Schmitt." Wood claimed that he expected to take votes from both candidates. Neither of us was buying that BS, and Wood was beginning to suspect he had wandered into political quicksand. With his breakfast on the way, however, he couldn't just up and leave. As I continued to prod, Wood took the position that Schmitt's challenge of the 2020 election results and his closeness to Trump made him essentially unfit for office. When I asked what role Schmitt had played in the election aftermath, Wood cited the fact he supported a lawsuit contesting the election outcome. Schmitt had joined other attorney generals in challenging the results in the four states that had changed voting protocol, allegedly for COVID reasons. "Schmitt went through the courts," I said. Wood was at his most animated when the conversation turned to Jan. 6. When I asked about the summerlong riots of 2020, he said, "Those were bad too." The summer riots were far worse, I explained, but there were almost no consequences for the rioters. Scores of Jan. 6 protestors, I continued, were imprisoned for no greater crime than wandering uninvited around the Capitol. Wood disagreed. He talked about the destruction the protestors wrought. I believe he was about to say they killed a guard but, realizing that canard wasn't going to fly with this audience, he used the word "hurt" instead. He knew who Ashli Babbitt was but insisted the officer who shot and killed her had no choice.Cashill points out that Wood has absolutely zero charisma and is "dough-faced."
By opening the door to a Democrat, I argued, Wood was helping to perpetuate the dual system of justice now facing America. Mike picked up on the Russia hoax. When Wood insisted the FBI acted in good faith, Mike asked how they could repeatedly lie on the FISA applications necessary to keep the sting going. Wood shrugged and mumbled something about a special prosecutor looking into it.
Yes, that's what I would expect a fake conservative neocon Liz Cheney crony to look like. I don't really believe he's a Republican. Cashill calls him a "nominal" Republican, indicating that he doesn't believe it himself.
By the way, I don't think the GOP should only have within it those with one single position on gay marriage. Or abortion. Or immigration. Or any of the other cultural hot buttons. But what I've noticed about the neocons isn't just that they're liberal on these issues -- it's that they're passionately liberal on them. They will defect to the other party over these issues, and have in fact already done so. If you're so devoted to open borders immigration that you will sabotage the GOP and support Democrats for five election cycles in a row to vindicate the open borders position, then yes, you're in the wrong party. You're a liberal Democrat.
If the left-liberal position on these social issues is so central to the core of your belief system that you will turn traitor on your former allies over them -- then yes, you're a liberal Democrat. Get the fuck out of my party. You can be a Republican and be mildly pro-choice. But you really can't be a Republican and be a NARAL Executive Committee member. NeverTrumpers claim they're scandalized by Trump's tweets. But the real thing they were first scandalized over, which most of them will not admit because they won't admit they are fervent believers in the leftist catechism, is his uncouth declaration that it was time to send illegals back to their home countries. They all believe, as the left does, that illegal aliens are Undocumented Citizens and Americans Without Papers and we owe them a Path to Citizenship, bigots! And they hate "Trumpists" for being such bigoted "Blood and Soil" Nazis for insisting on the idea that only people legally granted citizenship or temporary visas should be allowed to be here. They believe, as their friends on the left do, that this position is Actual Racism. If they didn't believe this was Actual Racism, they could have avoided the whole schism in the party -- and, in fact, avoided the Rise of Trump -- by compromising in the issue years and years before. But they absolutely refused to compromise, because they are absolutely convinced of the moral supremacy of the open borders position, and they believe that to compromise with Racist Evil Scum such as rank-and-file Republican Voters is, well, to be guilty of compromising with Racist Evil Scum. When the smaller part of your party refuses to compromise with the much larger part of the party, and block the much larger part of the party from winning on any of their preferred policy choices by dint of the smaller part of the party occupying positions of power and influence -- it's time to purge the unreasonable, uncompromising smaller part of the party from all positions of power and influence. Sorry, that's the way it is.
It's Time to Go Full Buckley and Excommunicate the Neocons From the Party Let's Make Conservatism Conservative Again.

This was the problem with the old argument about not being purists against people who agree with us on 95% of issues.
The problem is that 5% is always their most important thing and they always demand we come to them on it.

If you in any way defend the shooting of Ashli Babbitt, you not only deserve to be driven out of the GOP, you need to be shunned like a leper for the rest of your days.

Use of the term "dough-faced" is amazingly coincidental since it's the same pejorative term used before the Civil War by Republicans against Southern sympathizing Northern politicians. They called them 'doughfaces' back then.

With the exception of Trump, I quit the GOP and all of its candidates in 2014.
There were a lifetime of reasons for that decision, but Chris McDaniel vs. Thad Cochran was a huge one, and the straw that broke the back.
Mitch McConnell and Haley Barbour (who sallied forth out of retirement!) spent huge amounts of money and resorted to some of the filthiest tricks I've seen in American politics to stop McDaniel and keep their loyal walking corpse in the Senate - even though he made 2022 Joe Biden look like a young Jesse Owens by comparison.
I knew then that the GOP was unfixable. You can't fight that. I hope maybe at least a few of the GOP's LIVs are beginning to see the pattern now.

Assuming that the spoiler candidates lose at the ballot box (if such a thing is possible - and I suspect that in MO, it is), that is a great start.
The next is money. Do not give money to the GOP. No money for WinRed. No money for the party. No money for the congressional funds.
Give - even generously - directly to candidate campaign funds if the candidate is okay. To the party or a PAC (in most cases) or an adjunct group or a subdivision of party finance? Not one thin dime.

Not necessarily. Reagan got the Three-Legged Stool to work. But something shifted over the following decades. I don't know whether the neocons got too used to being in power in the Republican Party and are throwing a tantrum now that the ground is shifting, or whether there's another cause.

Not one articulated a border policy to complete with Trump's. He's steamrolling them in the primaries and they're all "how much amnesty can I put you down to buy today?"
That's why they are so passionate in calling Trump a racist. Because if Trump isn't racist, then they would have to state their alternative policy: Amnesty.

I think the number of people, left or right, who believe this is quite small.
Mostly, open borders is favored as a way of (1) flooding the country with low-income people who desperately need government programs and will support statists who pledge to hand out goodies and create an ostensible need for expansion of government; (2) a sop to corporations and many private citizens who want cheap labor and services; (3) a way of grinding down the middle class so that it becomes docile.
To the extent that beliefs about race factor into this, it is mostly by people who hate whites and want to see them outnumbered or replaced.

Episcopalians split from the parent Anglicans a while back before it became a thing. Think it was over the ordination of a gay bishop in NH over a decade ago (robinson? maybe). Episcopalians kept the name and the properties but the split off denominations are Anglicans and still affiliated with the worldwide Anglican church.
I think that is the story as I used to know some folks that left to form an Anglican congregation during the split.

I have a slightly different take. The Dem party was a total disaster, yes, but it also finally started cutting out the pretense and being out-and-proud commies about that time. The Neocons were essentially Democrats, yes, but they were generally anticommunist. The Dems' lurch into Red territory pushed a lot of them out of the party and they saw that the Republicans - as much as they didn't like the Reps - were at least anticommunist and understood the need to fight it at home and hold fast against the USSR.
Once the USSR fell - shortly after the neocon explosion happened - they reverted to form.

She's just a mouthpiece to deliver Narrative. That's all.
They knew people would be tired of the Romneys, Obamas, Pelosis, etc badmouthing Trump, and would possibly tune out, so they recruited Cheney and Pence to be the new fresh Voices Against MAGA.
The Pence one is especially painful because it means that he turned out to be an even bigger whore than his successor.

Well they just voted to renounce their support for crisis pregnancy centers, there's that. And the Anglosphere bishops tried to stack the deck at their most recent global conference to make it look like all the bishops were for gay marriage. But there's a little problem with the African and Asian bishops who are not down with the program.
And the Anglo bishops in their white supremacist colonialist way created rules that they thought the dumb PoCs wouldn't understand, to get around them. They failed.

An auto-ban would be a bad idea. There are many ways to accidentally wander into that situation. It's hit me several times now: you click on a post and read it and put a comment in, and by the time you post a comment the thread has been pulled (either for edits or because it was superseded by something). That's not being an idiot, that's making the mistake of trusting that posts are real.
Of course, that involves trusting *anything* which is, of course, a sign of idiocy, so ...

The reason why many blogs closed up is because of scaling costs--either you submit to Blogger's censorship and info on web traffic to and from your 'free' blog or you roll your own as in the early days of this blog.

date it from the end of WW2, - well, really since FDR, with a brief 8 year interregnum when Reagan was in office. But the Deep State began reasserting it's control in his second term.
What we got right now is what it looks like when one of these 70 year old structures is starting to collapse. It goes bad everywhere, in every institution, all at the same time. It's fair to say that it's just as much of a cultural collapse as a political one.

Assuming McConnell is not funding them what is their core value that distinguishes them from GOPe?
Are they modern mercantilists or war fetishists?

The modern setup since the Citizen's United is to use dark money where an independent cmte to support Woods runs all sorts of negative ads about Schmitt to drive down his turnout. There will be a few paltry ads supporting Woods but the whole thing is a media op dreamed up by unemployed GOPe media campaign people.
McConnell does not want a majority and while he cannot be seen working against Schmitt directly, he can tell his corporate fat cat donors that they would not suffer if they donated to Woods dark money Danforth run piece of crap media campaign.
Danforth is an experienced pol and knows exactly what he is doing. He is lying about Woods having a chance to win and this is all about the GOPe deniable splitter strategy that they perpetually use to keep out the riff raff in office. Some priest huh.

You support...civil unions and bans on "discrimination" against homosexuals...but aren't down with making people bake the cake and cutting the balls of kids.
It will take a decade of Roy Moore type politicians having complete control of the government to get us there.
So why the f*ck would you be supporting politicians that want to move the ratchet further left NOW.
And the answer, of course, is that these people are completely onboard with whatever crazy shit the left is in favor of now, and will be in favor of whatever crazy shit the left comes up with tomorrow....just slower.

Yes, and teh GOPe in Missouri including its current Senator and the Dems with their corrupt Soros prosecutor in St. Louis cooperated in kicking Greitens out of office if not in prison.

The Episcopal Church has had the ability to ordain people that don't have any intention of being a rector. Sometimes it works out o.k. in that they will ordain a person a Deacon if they don't want to be in the local church, but say-want to be a hospital chaplain which is a very worthy calling. I suspect Danforth did a nice sounding things about wanting to serve God as a lawyer and he got ordained. The law and politics are **cough cough **** his calling

So now the uniparty has
1) unlimited money to bribe people because they control the treasury
2) Unlimited ability to liable people through control of the FNM

Easier to defeat it by stalling now than go through the gulags/genocide. The Dems have their own problems as it was always designed as a coalition of outs run by elites manipulating them. Occasionally the elites lose their mojo such as Nixon's reelection or the 1896 McKinley race against William Jennings Bryan. They too have their corrupt pragmatists and true believers. Right now, the pragmatists have a slight edge but the true believers are forcing actions on the pragmatists that ultimately lead to a demolition at the polls if the pragmatists and their funders will it to happen. They have their own shadow wing of the Uniparty to keep the Sanders etc. out of office and to minimalize their influence.
Essentially, we have to be water and adaptable to conditions while their contradictions create a crackup likely when the currency collapses through loss of reserve status.

It's what you do if you're desperate to get your base to turn out, or you know you're going to lose and need to throw out as many goodies as possible.
My theory for a while has been that the WH and Congress have played hot potato with the issue.
Congress wanted the admin to do it so that Congressmen wouldn't face the wrath of voters, while the admin wanted Congressional buy-in to any forgiveness. It's part of why I believe that the WH leaked the Dobbs memo: this was gaining momentum back in April and the admin needed a major distraction. It looks like it wasn't enough.

The best part is, those young college students/dropouts mostly don't bother voting in the first place, and probably won't drop the bong and get off the couch to walk a block to the polling station, no matter how much loan forgiveness you throw at them.

The smart play is the play they've been making up until now: continue deferring it en masse. It gets deferred, but not canceled. "If you want that next deferral, you'd better keep returning us to office." Continuous deferral is politically a better tool than actually delivering on forgiveness.
If they're seriously considering it, it strikes me as a desperation move rather than a strategic move.

1. You must have registered to vote from a FIXED address in the constituency in which you intend to run. You must have declared this address your domicile.
2. You must have filed your most recent state tax return from an address within the constituency in which you have registered.
3. You must have a residence history in one or another of the counties touching on the constituency in which you intend to run. That is to say there must have been periods in your life when all of the following were true simultaneously: (a) you were a palpable resident of one or another of those counties; (b) you were in the country lawfully; (c) you were not incarcerated, on probation, or on parole; (d) you were not under an order of civil commitment or adult guardianship; (e) you did not have a formal domicile anywhere else. The foregoing periods must have added up to x years of your life. Making 'x' equal to about 4 years should do.

He probably didn’t expect Thomas to be as conservative—or as independent—as he is. I just read Thomas’s autobiography. It’s worth reading. Were I a beltway Republican back in 1990, without the benefit of that bio, I might very well conclude Thomas to be a grifter like me, or at least easily coopted by the beltway class.

I was around when the term "neocon" was termed (by the people themselves) and I have no idea what its constant use here is supposed to mean. No real relationship to the original meaning, but whatever, language is living, and spoken, as my Russki teachers always emphasized, not set in stone.
And the issue isn't even "immigration" - we have never even gotten to that. The issue is mass lawlessness and institutional collapse with respect to rule of law regarding borders, admissions and immigration. Immigration *policy* is barely touched on (though one could argue policy is the issue WRT H-1Bs). And it's not a "cultural" issue, it's a massive policy issue affecting employment, social mobility, education, national security.
