The Morning Report — 10/28/22

Good morning kids. The weekend is here and before we dive in, a bit of a teaser for you; friend and friend of the blog Michael Walsh is our guest on the next episode of the podcast where we discussed his powerful new book Against the Great Reset: Eighteen Theses Contra the New World Order. To paraphrase Walsh, he's "assembled the '27 Yankees of conservative thinkers" for this crucial book. Scan the TOC and it really is a who's who of the crème de la crème of authors and political thinkers. CBD and I went way long and we'll probably have to split it into two parts, but it was for sure one of the best episodes yet. Agree or disagree with him, he's always entertaining and insightful. Check the sidebar or CJN Monday-ish. Be there. Aloha.

Basta cosi. On to the morning meshugas and meshugas is certainly the operative word. So, yesterday, Gloria Retread slid out from the sewer she had been steaming her geriatric, razor strop-consistency piss-flaps in to hurl yet another false accusation at Herschel Walker. The result seems to be that Walker is now clearly pulling away from the Ebenezer Baptist Wife-Beater incumbent with about a week and a half to go.

But wait! There's more!

Desperation is never a good look. Sad! Man, Arizona Democrat gubernatorial candidate Katie Hoobs looks desperate trying to pin a burglary of her headquarters on GOP candidate Kari Lake without any proof. . .
. . . Lake had a fantastic response

.@katiehobbs blames rhetoric from Lake campaign. @KariLake: “I can’t believe that she would blame my amazing people or blame me... I don’t even know where her campaign office is. I’m assuming it’s in a basement somewhere because that’s where she’s been campaigning”
You guys, it gets better. The police made an arrest. They haven’t released any information, but now Hobbs does not want to talk about the incident.
Weird.

Well, "weird" is one way to describe it. Laughable and disgusting are two more words that come to mind. I think Kari Lake is going to win this and there is a very good chance that Mark Kelly, who's only qualification was his wife Gabbie Giffords getting shot at a rally, might lose also to Blake Masters. That race is now officially a toss-up.

Meanwhile, while everyone on the Democrat side is praising the debate "performance" of Lumpy Fetterman, who came off sounding like Chuck Wepner after his head encountered the fists of Muhammed Ali, that is when the paramedics removed the oxygen mask from his face and the ambu-bag from his throat so he could speak, Chuck Schemer was caught on an open mic with Biden. And he was not telling him he'd "have more flexibility after the election."

. . .Democrats were in trouble with just days before next month’s midterm elections.
“That seat, we’re in danger in that seat,” Schumer told Biden, adding a few moments later, “It’s close. We’ll see.”
It’s not clear what seat Schumer was talking about as press poll coverage did not show what was said just prior to Schumer’s remarks.
Schumer then addressed the recent disastrous debate performance from Lt. Governor John Fetterman (D) in Pennsylvania’s U.S. Senate race against Republican nominee Dr. Mehmet Oz.
“We’ll we’re, you know, it looks like, it looks like the debate didn’t hurt us too much in Pennsylvania as of today,” Schumer said. “So that’s good.”

If you read between the lines, Schemer even alluding to "not being hurt" I guess can be interpreted as an admission that the Dem cheat factor perhaps is non-operational, or even that he's deluded himself into thinking Fetterman came across as Justice Jackson at the Nuremberg Trials and that the Dem cheat factor won't have a problem overcoming Oz's actual votes in the event he is ahead when the polls close.

But, the question is who is the mystery senator he is freaking out about: Maggie Hasan in NH? Even with Mitch McChicom pulling money away from Dan Bolduc, he might actually win this one. Or could Lee Zeldin finally give us a big win in New York? The race no one is really covering is blonde Moe Howard-coiffed dipshit Patty Murray who is, perhaps for the first time in her career in actual danger of losing to an appealing GOP challenger Tiffany Smiley.

Another shocker that has popped up, which we mentioned last week was that execrable sack of shit Da Nang Dickweed Blumenthal seems to be in real trouble in what is usually solidly blue Connecticut. His challenger, Leora Levy, was born in Cuba and is a seasoned politico. The reason the race is so close is perhaps due to the rapid exodus of Latinos from the Democrat Party. The city of Bridgeport has a huge Latino population and if they either stay home or vote for Levy in any significant percentage, Blumenthal could be gone.

Look, let's not start producing a venturi effect on our nether regions just yet. Anything can happen in the next 11 days and knowing the Democrats, that is almost certainly guaranteed. I don't think these cheap, transparently phony "surprises" are going to have any effect whatsoever. The destruction wrought by Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants and his handlers in Kalorama have finally been the tonic to open a lot of peoples' eyes and they have seen, and felt, enough.

Whether the GOP as constituted can consolidate that into a truly transformational political change is seriously in doubt. The good news, from my perspective, is that there is now a growing number of solid MAGA and, as Misanthropic Humanitarian (or was it CBD?) described as "MAGA curious" candidates in the last podcast who will find it "politically profitable" to do the right thing once in office and buck McConnell and the establishment traitors. Even still, with the unelected bureaucracy actually making laws and controlling government, a dicey-at-best judiciary, a whorehouse propaganda media, and the brainwashing mills of academia, this is going to be a generational struggle.

More challenging still, even with big wins, there is still a hardcore, dead-ender bitter-clinging group of "true believers" that will never change their attitude. And for sure, the Globalist Deep State Left will never surrender their drive to overthrow and/or destroy America and more broadly the advance of humanity for the past 1,000 years.

It was perfectly exemplified in a Facebook post (I lurk there and use it as a kind of barometer) from an old and dear friend from my past:

I don't care if Fetterman has to communicate by blinking his eyes in Morse Code — He's still preferable to Oz.

This was a graphic so I don't think she wrote it, but she did post it. This is not a stupid person. Far from it. And yet, there is not only no critical thinking, there is no thinking, period. That is what we are up against, my friends. As if you needed a reminder. It's not about winning hearts and minds. With some people, even the most reasonable and seemingly intelligent, it's like pissing in the wind. Forget it. Find people that start questioning a few things here and there. That is a sign, small as it may be, that they are at least open to hearing what you have to say. Don't come on like a bull in a china shop. Don't talk about people or personalities. Talk about ideas. Plant the seed and then let the wheels in their mind turn on their own.

Have a good weekend.

Honestly, other than the names Lake and Hobbs I know nothing of substance about either of them other than the tidbits about their campaigns. If it's true the woman has some sort of "condition" you have to stop and wonder about all the many, many people in the political, academic, media and all the other sectors that also demonstrate some sort of mental illness. And are in positions of some power/authority that we know who they are.

This is disturbing.

67 I don't care if Fetterman has to communicate by blinking his eyes in Morse Code — He's still preferable to Oz.

This was a graphic so I don't think she wrote it, but she did post it.

I have to call a foul on claiming we wouldn't do the same thing. We know that a majority matters. So, if the situation were reversed and our candidate had the same medical issues as Fetterman, we'd still vote for our candidate over the democrat. I know I would.

For instance, if Trump had run against someone younger and healthier last election (instead of Biden), and it came to light during the campaign that Trump had a serious heart condition, I still would have voted for Trump over a leftist candidate.

So, it's hardly surprising that hard-core leftists feel the same way about their candidate. The only people the medical issues might sway are the independents who don't really follow politics.

75 This is not a stupid person. Far from it. And yet, there is not only no critical thinking, there is no thinking, period.

One of these days, maybe, for some of you, it'll sink in. Politics, for most people, is an act of faith. Its not rational or reasonable or something you can argue with or change. When you understand that, and accept it, all the madness around you suddenly makes sense.

Here, I think, the problem is the word faith - because its got such an overwhelmingly positive connotation. Strip all that away, and view it in the strictest of meanings; a blind, unshakable belief regardless of evidence.

Once you get that, you get what makes most people tick regarding their politics. You get why arguing politics is useless. You get why people do such shitty things to each other in the name of politics. Its all because of faith.

Whoa. So I went to look up who this Aaron Kheriaty guy is, and holy moly. Professor at UCI School of Medicine and director of the Medical Ethics Program at UCI Health for almost 15 years. Pro-COVID, pro-mask, gave this "white coat address" to incoming medical students:

"We need creative thinking for drive-through blood drives that practice adequate screening and social distancing while continuing to supply necessary blood. You can be the first to donate blood and can help organize these initiatives. You can get the word out on social media... reach out and encourage these companies to donate their N95 masks to your hospital. These essential supplies can literally save lives..."

Then questioned the policies of the school re: vaccinations and natural immunity, was barred from school grounds (and prevented from taking vacation leave while it was sorted out), and was fired.

"House of Commons unanimously agrees to recognize Canada's residential schools [for Indian kids] as act of genocide."

What makes this even worse is that the Leftist-Indian coalition were claiming the boarding schools were an act of cultural genocide a decade ago but are now pretending it was a literal genocide so this means alot more than mere p.c. window-dressing that our Cons have gone along with.

I've always found biblical prophecy interesting. Is it a foretelling of a specific event on our timeline ? Or something as simple as a spoiler alert about all the failings of the human condition - and how we constantly bring about our own demise ?

As soon as man progressed far enough to catalogue and count each individual, he's always done so - always with bad intentions as far as I can tell. I always noted that man is a social animal. But the ways he socializes rarely turn out well.

I guess it depends on if you have a literal or poetic view of the Bible. Most people I've met fall somewhere in the middle.

140 But, the question is who is the mystery senator he is freaking out about: Maggie Hasan in NH? Even with Mitch McChicom pulling money away from Dan Bolduc, he might actually win this one.

Hassan was supposed to have at least two debates with General Bolduc. After the first one - which was so little publicized as to have been invisible - she refused to have a second and gave no excuse.

So either she is desperate and counting on the cheat factor (which, since a great deal of NH is simply North Massachusetts, is considerable) to pull her withered ass over the line or the General cleaned her clock, reset it and cleaned it again.

Hassan deserves to lose. I doubt she will, though.

No amount of empirical evidence about natural immunity or vaccine safety and efficacy mattered at all. The University’s leadership was not interested in scientific debate or ethical deliberation. When I was placed on unpaid suspension I was not permitted to use my paid time off ... In an effort to pressure me to resign, they wanted to restrict my ability to earn an income not only at the University but outside the University as well.

190 Your point is taken. But she advocates a brain damaged man who will be used to further our destruction. I would vote for someone who would vote to stop and reverse the destruction.

That's the problem, J.J. Their political faith dictates that you are the destruction and they are trying to stop it.

See where I 'm going with this ? When its posted here, that their violence is speech and your speech is violence - they aren't accepting that in any kind of hypocritical manner. They believe it. What you see as white, they really do view as black.

And so, as earlier stated, both sides really would vote for a Fetterman - if they thought their Fetterman was on the proper political team. In that manner, both ideologies really are just opposite sides of the same coin.

226 In the Whitmer thread yesterday there was a discussion about sociopaths vs. psychopaths.

For a time, I was seeing a woman whom I suspect now may have been a sociopath. She even once said that she tended to control and manipulate people to get what she wanted but she couched it in moral terms. She said it was just a way to protect herself.

And probably the thing most disturbing was her telling me she if I got her pregnant that she would get an abortion and smiling about it, like it was something to look forward to. She had told me that she had gotten one years before and when she told me she screamed it at me.

255 common sense says more interaction, not less, strengthens immune systems in young people (though its hard on parents!), but I too am interested in a professional view.

I remember the good old days, when one of the arguments against home schooling and for day care was the socialization and immune system improvement. Now ? The same folks are all for masks and home schooling supervised by the government.

Why, I even remember folks here, back in March and April, saying that all these quarantines, when finally ended, would lead to a spike in infections.

260 Out of all of Musk's stated plans for Twitter, the one I look forward to most is "verify everybody" and I hope he does it. This will have a number of huge benefits:
1. Way fewer bots with much higher barriers to entry for bot operators (this is the stated reason)
2. Fewer anonymous calls for violence
3. The blue check is no longer a badge of honor and differentiation for celebrities and journalists. Taking the status marker away from them will make them climb the walls

I suppose that's how parties die; they permit themselves to be captured by a wealthy but radical fringe element, which drives normies away. The more the normies leave, the more dependent they are on the Fringe's money.

I've seen this happen to churches, perhaps many of you have as well. In public organizations, often too MUCH money is a far greater curse than too little. It allows the organization to forget that it needs broad based support to survive.

Was reading Philadelphia Magazine, specifically City Life & News article entitled, Philly Today: Dr. Oz has a Google Problem, but Fetterman May Be a Slacker, Oct 7, by Victor Fiorillo. (Fun column in its entirety, IMO.)

So...'The Pennsylvania Senate 2022 Race' on Open Secrets dot org, shows Fetterman's top contributor is Alphabet, Inc., followed by the state's biggest hospital groups.
(Note: Open Secrets includes the following statement regarding contributors: The organizations themselves did not donate, rather the money came from the organizations' PACs, their individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals' immediate families. Organization totals include subsidiaries and affiliates.) But all still very interesting to me.

Also, under the Open Secrets' heading Politicians & Elections/Congress, is 'The Republican National Committee’s battle over Gmail spam filters escalates with lawsuit,' by Taylor Giorno, October 27, 2022.

If I flip the script on this one - a Republican candidate had a debilitating stroke, I'd still vote for the Republican. Heck, 90% of congresscritters don't create legislation of note or debate in any meaningful manner. Any major legislation is always on party lines. We could save a lot of money by replacing them with dogs trained to press a "Yes" or "No" button as directed by the party leader.

With the Dem gov candidate looking to win in PA, it's not a problem for them if Fetterman is elected and leaves office for health reasons as the governor appoints a new senator.

426 One factor in an apparent RSV 'surge' that never gets much mention is the testing strategy being employed. This can become a sort of self-fulfilling prophecy.

Actual total numbers of RSV cases are never directly determined, as not every child with sniffles gets tested. The subset of the population that gets tested is largely those that present to the hospital or clinic and may be symptomatic enough (decreased O2 level, increased work of breathing) to need hospitalization. In a post-COVID society, the rear that has been ramped up by CDC and public health officials has almost certainly led to a lower threshold for taking one's child to the hospital and increased willingness of ER docs to run the test. If you look for it more and harder, you will find it more.

It would not surprise me to find at the end of the day that this year's RSV season is not really substantially worse than typical. Time will tell.

1. A non-US government will force Twitter back into its old mold (I'm looking at you, EU)
2. The US government will persecute Musk through his other enterprises and by intensive investigation and prosecution until he capitulates and returns to the old order
3. Twitter will be destroyed through coordinated effort. The news will stop using Twitter and actively pivot to disparaging anyone who tweets.

There's still plenty of opportunity to cheat in CT, but in the big cities like Bridgeport, New Haven and Stamford (Former Gov. Dan Malloy's stronghold). Bridgeport, however, is the key to CT. If the R's are going to win there, that will be the place it happens.

The valorized spaces of the new megastructures and super-malls are concentrated in the center, street frontage is denuded, public activity is sorted into strictly functional compartments, and circulation is internalized in corridors under the gaze of private police. … The Oz-like archipelago … of pleasure domes—a continuum of tony malls, arts centers, and gourmet strips—is reciprocally dependent upon the social imprisonment of the third-world service proletariat who live in increasingly repressive ghettos and barrios.

Masks incubate bacterial infections making them worse. God/Evolution put mechanism in us for clearing breathed in air but masks disable that function. Clot shots have trashed the immune systems of many people and have created a leap in genetic entropy towards less resistance.

476 460 A few days ago a TikTok circulated about "my average day at Twitter!" and it was . . . Romper Room. No actual work was done, unless you count awesome meetings in which everyone chattered away on Zoom about the awesome 'projects' they were working on. The video showed the awesome cafeteria and the meditation pods and the cabin-themed room with faux wood logs, the awesome wine on tap (which was awesome), the awesome view from the roof, all narrated in the TikTok cadence. It made the Eloi look like Welsh coal miners.

Posted by: Huck Follywood at October 28, 2022 09:14 AM (ZWXR6)

It is possible for the US to cut-loose from the Russian segment. However the docking latches holding the two segments together are powered and controlled from the Russian side. The first of many issues to resolve. The US-Russian separation elephant in the room is the US segment does not have a propulsion system for re-boost and collision avoidance (and a few other things). Rumors are NASA is working with Musk to fix that.

482 commies gotta commie:
The October elections were marred with violence and corruption, and when the initial result showed a 50-50 split, the leftist parties went on a rampage, attacking polling places, town halls, and creating general havoc. The caretaker government did nothing to disrupt this and by the time the counting was done, a close election had turned into a solid Popular Front victory.
Yet even this was not enough. Once they took office, the Popular Front legislators launched a series of investigations into "electoral irregularities", which invariably resulted in recounts and re-votes that flipped solid center-right seats to the Popular Front. By March, the Popular Front had managed to turn a narrow win into a two-thirds majority.

Game rooms, fancy "relaxation spaces" and decent cafeterias are extremely common in big tech. Where the differences between companies is how they're used.

When I worked in the office for a big tech outfit, we had all that crap and it was never used. The foosball table and video game system in the rec room literally had dust on them. The good coffee (and it was truly excellent) was consumed at an alarming rate and the meeting rooms were always full. We didn't have a yoga studio, but if we did it would have been like a museum space.

An RSV booster (not vaccine) exists, but it is (was) incredibly expensive: monthly shots during flu season were about 1K each back in the mid-2000's. My son got them because he was in a high-risk group. It was quite the process: we'd have to verify his weight; the manufacturer would send us the meds express mail (to be kept refrigerated, then a nurse would come to our home, weigh him again, mix the two parts of the booster together, wait for the reaction from the mix, then the shots.
