The Morning Report — 11/8/22

whatllitbe.jpg

Good morning kids. Well, this is it. Despite all the positive tea leaves that we've been reading over the past few months, and even the past few podcasts with Dave in FL, I'd be lying to you if I said I wasn't even slightly concerned about the potential for the now patented and perfected Democrat voting fraud to throw, if not all of the key races that preserve Democrat control over Congress, then at least a few, so as to preserve the official line/meme that "Well, it's the midterms and 99% of the time the party in power loses control of Congress, but in no way does it mean disaffection/disapproval of our agenda!"

Looking beyond elections to a higher level view of things, I think this is the thing that scares the Left the most. It took them a little over a hundred years to completely overthrow our government as founded as well as upend nearly a thousand years of human progress reflected in our society and culture. And they sure as shit aren't going to let anything upend that, including stupid people believing their lying eyes that every Democrat-Leftist policy inflicted on us leads to disaster. Hell, in that same century, Leftism — really totalitarian tyranny in all its forms because the Left-Center-Right paradigm is a myth — has ground the lives of well over 100 million souls into the ground. But still, they persist because the real "we" of "we are the ones we've been waiting for" are just over the horizon, and they'll make socialism work this time for sure, "even if it short-dicks every cannibal in the fucking Congo!"

And yet growing numbers of traditional Democrat voting blocs are fleeing the party in ever-growing numbers. Uncle Sugar in his Santa Claus suit can't hand out enough walking around money to keep them satisfied. Not when an entire economy is collapsing, criminals are let loose as official policy to run wild in the streets (mostly in perpetually Democrat-controlled fiefdoms), and things like the promotion of homosexuality, transgenderism and other perversions are causing a massive head-on collision and pile-up at the "intersectionality" intersection. That story the other day of Muslims going apeshit on their Democrat overlords in Dearborn-istan about the perversion dressed up as sex education in the classrooms is quite the tell.

What I am driving at is elections or no elections, there is a sea change coming in our society with the rejection of Democrat-Leftist socialism. The problem is, not only the aforementioned refusal of these bastards to give up now when the brass ring is a red nether hair's width from their reach. It's that they control the instrumentalities of government that elections have virtually zero effect over. And that was the revolution starting with Wilson and metastasizing from FDR to LBJ and even Tricky Dick which created the Deep State that is our overlord.

That is who and what we face. But more and more people across all walks of life (the reasonable, rational and heretofore even low-information crowd who do have eyes to see) recognize, if not as we do the who, what and why, the bare minimum that this is not how things are supposed to be.

In any case, before I digress down another rabbit hole of thoughts firing around in my balding head, let me highlight a couple of things about what's scaring me and then riffing on that last bit, what gives me hope.

Analyst Martin Armstrong has warned that there may not be an election in 2024 and that “the United States will not exist after 2032” due to massive societal upheaval and financial collapse. . .

. . . According to the analyst, future elections are in severe doubt of even taking place due to rampant corruption and cheating, along with the likelihood that neither side will accept defeat.

“The cheating in the midterm election next week is going to be so great that it is almost impossible to make a prediction. . . . In a fair midterm election, the Republicans would win the House and the Senate,” said Armstrong.

Revealing that he has received emails from people in Canada saying they had been delivered voting ballots for Pennsylvania, Armstrong is predicting utter chaos.

Warning that the mid-term result will “not be accepted” by one side, Armstrong says Trump won’t be able to run in 2024 because there probably won’t be an election due to a total loss of confidence in the system. . .

. . . “This is a worldwide effort,” he said. “They had to get rid of Trump. The other one who stood in their way is Bolsonaro. . ."

. . .“The United States will not exist after 2032. After 2028 and 2029, we are going to have to redesign a government from scratch. America is being destroyed,” he explicitly warned.

“Where this ends up, who knows? It’s just so corrupt, it is over the top. It doesn’t matter who wins. Nobody is going to accept this thing, and that is the problem,” he said.

Is this crackpot nuttery? Look at the statements and proclamations that come out of Davos every time the WEF meets. Hell, look at what Malig-Nancy Pelosi herself predicted, no guaranteed Trump would not win 2016. You all saw the steal in real time on election night. And then there was Molly Ball's infamous boast in Time Magazine going into great detail how the Deep State and media did everything they could to ensure "the right outcome" two years ago.

And now we have Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants spouting this communiqué from Kalorama:

Sunlight is said to be the best disinfectant—and I would propose that the best way you counter conspiracy theories is with absolute transparency. That is what this upcoming election and voters deserve:  A restoration of confidence in their vote.

That is why Joe Biden’s 20-minute fear-mongering speech a week before a midterm election—a speech in which he could tout zero accomplishments of his own even as he conflated the attack on Paul Pelosi with Donald Trump, January 6, and “election deniers,” all while simultaneously warning this election might take days to decide as they did in 2020—is so concerning.

Biden tried to paint Republicans as extremists while hinting ahead of time that they might question this upcoming election as well. It is a heck of a warning. Is it fair to ask if it is part of their strategy? Did he just tell us their game plan?

“Extreme MAGA Republicans aim to question not only the legitimacy of past elections, but elections being held now and into the future. The extreme MAGA element of the republican party, which is a minority of that party” he said, trying to label and downplay an organic populist movement that terrifies Democrats. “It’s the driving force. It’s trying to succeed where they failed in 2020, to suppress the right of voters and subvert the electoral system itself. . .”

. . . as happened on election night in 2020, Biden again seemed to hint that delayed, partisan vote counting is all part of the new process. Not knowing by Tuesday night who won should be expected. . .

. . . Be patient, he says. “This is how it is supposed to work.” Really?

With all due respect, Mr. [so-called quote-unquote "president"], no it is not. Americans should know their winners on election night.

If people go to bed Tuesday night with recovering stroke victim John Fetterman trailing Dr. Oz in the Pennsylvania Senate race or Lee Zeldin crushing the installed Kathy Hochul for New York Governor, only to wake up to a Democrat “miracle come from behind victory,” there will be more questions Mr. [so-called quote-unquote "president"], not fewer.

My only consolation here is that it was Biden making those remarks. His brain function two years ago was at Karen Ann Quinlan level. Today it's about as sharp as a petri dish of mold spores. So maybe he's blathering. Then again, he has, via the Gestapo DOJ been crafting some sort of secret protocols to nationalize state elections. A plan that has been more closely guarded than our nuclear secrets. And it's deja-vu all over again with ABC warning about the "Red Mirage" the day after.

But, as I said, I think the crucial difference this time, if they try and succeed in a steal, a lot more voters, by orders of magnitude, who were eager to dump the Democrats and stop the Kalorama Klowns will now experience what we all saw and felt two years ago. The same people who thought we were sore losers and conspiracy nutters. A sleeping giant will now truly be awakened.

Look, I do not want to be a wet blanket. I just feel I owe it to all of you to call it as I see it. There is also perhaps an equally disgusting aspect in case there actually is a Democrat wipeout today.

RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said that Republicans would work with the Biden [junta] to help Americans if Biden will work with them.

Appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday, McDaniel pointed to the example of former President Bill Clinton, who governed as much more of a centrist after Republicans swept into office with a massive red wave in 1994.

“[W]e need a president that’s going to work across the aisle,” McDaniel said. “None of this happens unless both parties are working together. So, if we win back the House and the Senate, it’s the American people saying to Joe Biden, we want you to work on behalf of us and we want you to work across the aisle and solve the problems that we are dealing with. Bill Clinton did that, right? After ’94, when he lost those midterms, he came across and said, let’s work together. It will be interesting to see if [so-called quote-unquote "president"] Biden does that.”

No, Ronna R-O-M-N-E-Y McDaniel. What we need is for you and everyone who thinks and acts like you to shut the fuck up and get the hell out of our way. We need to stop the genocide of what's left of our society and culture at the hands of the Democrats AND the GOP-e as exemplified by your uncle Pee-Air Defecto. We need to eradicate the political system and bureaucracy that keeps you and yours fat and happy sucking the lifeblood and freedom out of the people you've grifted, grafted and lied to for decades.

Last word to friend and friend of the blog Michael Walsh:

Ten years ago, back in the halcyon days when we simpletons believed the Republicans were at least some of the time an opposition party, and that Willard Mitt Romney was a man of probity and character, I wrote the following in the pages of National Review Online about the election that was about to take place. The piece was entitled "Crush Them."

Conservatives have a rare opportunity tomorrow to do something they signally failed to do in the landslide elections of 1972 and 1984: finish the job. Nixon’s victory was vitiated by Watergate and quickly revenged by Woodward and Bernstein, leading to his replacement in 1974 by Jerry Ford, a man who exactly nobody thought was qualified to be president of the United States, probably including Ford himself. Ford led to Jimmy Carter, whose ineptitude and weakness in turn lead to Ronald Reagan, who swept Carter away in 1980 and then smashed Walter Mondale and the Democrats to powder in 1984. . .

 Change only a couple of words and it's déjà vu all over again: shuffling, senile Joe Biden really is the zombified embodiment of Hussein's third term, staggering, one hopes, toward utter electoral disaster later today as long-suffering Americans finally awake and rise up against the tyranny of les aristocrates who have been torturing us these past two years and more. A la lanterne!

As my regular readers know, I have long described the Democrat Party—not just its lawless and fascistic modern incarnation, but going all the way back to its inception when Aaron Burr, the sitting vice president, a member of the Democratic-Republican Party, notorious traitor, and the founder of Tammany Hall, shot and killed Alexander Hamilton in 1804—as "a criminal organization masquerading as a political party." Indeed, I even wrote a small monograph concerning its violent, seditious history, still available on Kindle.

Now, after two years of Biden, everyone can see just how awful the Democrats really are. Not simply the party of slavery, segregation, secularism, and sedition, but (as they were during the Civil War, which they started) a movement actively hostile to the founding principles of the country that continues to give them shelter and legitimacy. Indeed, they have become the Anti-American Party, advocating unfettered abortion, public criminality, political violence, economic destruction, radical egalitarianism, an obsessive racialism that would make a Nazi blush, open and undefended borders, and the abrogation of the Constitution: a document they've long despised and which they are now actively trying to repeal. . .

. . ., let's vote as many of you out of office today as possible. Let's round up and fire en masse the malicious thugs and petty party functionaries and time-serving rent-seekers and the cabal of Ivy League-educated media punks and poetasters who view themselves as part of the Democrat machine and daily proclaim their fealty to the Party. Let's publicly call out the neo- and cultural-Marxists who adhere to the Brezhnev Doctrine and will never willingly take one step back in their pursuit of "social justice." For them, every Democrat executive order is Order 227, for which they are supposed to fight to the end.

I will conclude today by saying what we're facing goes beyond politics and elections because, as the great Andrew Breitbart PBUH stated, "Politics is downstream from culture." And I would add that culture is downstream from education.

In any case, there must be a sea change in the nearly 60-year lobotomization/brainwashing of our children that have turned our society upside down. It is coming, and sadly, like many things, it will require much pain and suffering, if not bloodshed, to get us on the road to an American renewal. Whatever happens, the Democrat-Left have succeeded in making enemies out of so many people that they have suckered for so many years by actually implementing all of the things they never dreamed of doing all at once and at breakneck speed. Our job is to nurture new allies as well as get rid of traitorous scum like the GOP-e and renew America as founded, or something else from the ashes of what was destroyed.

Adding to Walsh's reference of Order 227:

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." - Lao Tzu

"NOT ONE STEP BACK." - Joseph Stalin

GET OUT AND VOTE

    ABOVE THE FOLD, BREAKING, NOTEWORTHY

  • "Identifying the cause (or causes) of the recent rise in murders is complicated by the fact that correlation does not prove causation. Paying no heed to this reality, many media outlets have pinned the blame on [Chinese] Covid-19 and gun sales. However, the data are more consistent with the possibility that the BLM movement is responsible."
    FBI Buries the Data on Murder Rates
  • Michael Walsh: ". . . shuffling, senile Joe Biden really is the zombified embodiment of Hussein's third term, staggering, one hopes, toward utter electoral disaster later today as long-suffering Americans finally awake and rise up against the tyranny of les aristocrates who have been torturing us these past two years and more.

10 Wrote this four years ago, still true:

Democrats hate white people; men, masculinity, and heterosexuality; Christianity; America, American traditions and history, Western Civilization itself; capitalism and freedom; they hate all that is NORMAL.

Democrats favor non-citizens over citizens; criminals over the law-abiding; the transgressive over the traditional; hysteria over sobriety; superstition over logic.

20 Random thought number 4,403,403,212: Of course Democrats are all in on grooming. Without grooming, Democrat voters wouldn't exist. Which is why Democrats insist all forms of grooming at all levels of public education.

Think about it. Democrats are the party which believes babies are a punishment, they're all in on child sacrifice and, if one must have a child, well, more than one is just too much for Gaia to handle.

All I can say here is something I firmly believe 100%. And that is the Democratic Party and their footsoldiers have utterly destroyed the election process. They've mangled and perverted every security aspect, every avenue to ensure elections free from complete fraud. Trust is destroyed, without a doubt. And I am full-on sick and damned tired of having to factor the fraud into every election. A supposed first world country such as the USA should never, ever have been allowed to devolve into such election madness. They are cheaters and liars. And each major election accelerates that. We cannot go on like this.

85 But, as I said, I think the crucial difference this time, if they try and succeed in a steal, a lot more voters, by orders of magnitude, who were eager to dump the Democrats and stop the Kalorama Klowns will now experience what we all saw and felt two years ago. The same people who thought we were sore losers and conspiracy nutters. A sleeping giant will now truly be awakened.

I would like to believe that, JJ. I really would. But I don't. Or, more precisely, I can't. I do believe the "miracle come-from-behind!" steal will prevail both tonight and over the following days. Our 'betters' like Roma Romney will lecture us about "acceptance" and that insurrection is 'not who we are.' And most people, who can barely keep food on the table, will seethe with the knowledge that another election was stolen and that to even so much as gather on the streets to protest will be to incur arrest and incarceration.

The Biden junta has been starving and breaking people. Most are too busy working and trying to pay their bills to stop the steal in its tracks. And the GOP doesn't give a shit, so long as they get to keep their own phony-baloney jobs.

And how nothing will be done about the obvious fraud in the aftermath. Nothing.

Going back to my point above about how Democrats have ruined the election process in America, at some point, we will have to face the stark truth that we cannot live in a country with people like this. They are insane. And they mean to steal every election that isn't nailed down. We aren't America 1950. We're not even America 1990.

126 In California, which not only leads the nation in “clean energy” production but is leading the rest of us into rolling blackouts, residents pay 24.62 cents per kilowatt-hour for energy, around double the national average.

1000 kWh x $0.13700000
322 kWh x $0.08900000

So Cal is double my peak rate and treble my off rates. It would make my bill almost $600 vs. $250.

Along with altering our global temperature data sets to meet the needs of the political establishment, however, NASA is altering the ocean temperature readings, as well: "When the errors had been corrected, the global-scale cooling trend disappeared."

NASA started this about 25 years ago. If they did not like the reading from a ship or buoy they would go find a old temperature they liked and ADJUST the real temp.

Ettore Boiardi -- another great American by choice. Started working in restaurants in his native Italy at the age of 11. Saved his money and hit Ellis Island at the age of 16. Worked in hotel restaurants and (once again) saved his money until he had enough to start his own. His sauce was so awesome that customers asked for some to take home. He started bottling it.

Eventually sold his company for $5.96 million, which was a lot of money at the time.

It's that they control the instrumentalities of government that elections have virtually zero effect over.

Yup. The Democrats, starting in earnest with Obama, accelerating with Trump and likely compounding mightily today (results pending), are essentially a provincial party now - except that the province is the imperial capital and its major outlying second cities.

It can't stand. One or the other will fail. The Congress can undo a lot of the terrible mistakes they've made over the past century and rein in the executive and deal with some of that permanent government, but I don't see it happening.

I doubt it. Two years is not very long, and elections remain a useful fiction for the central government. Elections for state and local affairs may not be fictional depending on locale, but they largely are for the big offices. The "red wave" that will likely sweep through and overturn congressional majorities will not result in meaningful improvement, but it will make the teamwise voters feel pretty good.

Elections will still be a useful fiction in 2024 and beyond. They will remain a useful fiction until the wheels come off, most likely due to fiscal catastrophe or major war.

You can hire a million poll watchers, and the site supervisor can allow them, and the local party leader will take their calls, and centralized vote-muling and cheating operations will still proceed apace.

There need to be real consequences for playing games with the election. There need to be improvements in roll maintenance, chain of custody, duplicate avoidance, etc. - but those are all changes in law. When you're willing to break a dozen laws anyway, is breaking two dozen unreasonable? The people who do it need to go to prison. For a long, long, long time, and it should roll to the top. If a precinct operator is cheating and the county elections office is notified and it isn't halted and the person involved arrested, the big boss goes down, too. If the state is notified and doesn't intervene, the SoS goes down.

353 Republicans were prohibited from having poll watchers, not from contesting elections.
Posted by: Red Turban Someguy
------------------------
The GOP national party committees were forbidden to do any ballot security programs at the national level and that included funding them. What they also had to do is spend a lot of money to educate local and state parties over the consent decree material.

It was a bit broader than just poll workers RTS. I would suggest reading Mollie's article at the Federalist if you want a summary or the Brennan Center has the original court documents including the filings by RNC and DNC over the consent decree. This was a gross miscarriage of justice by a very partisan NJ Dem trial judge who stayed on senior status for 21 years just to renew the consent decree. Part of this was Ed Rollins, one of Reagan's stupid political operatives who spouted off that the GOP was paying off ministers, etc. not to take their people out to vote among other tales he spun in the press.

Rollins was simply an earlier version of Karl Rove that exists mainly to suck donor funds and leave shit behind.

There are two state constitutional amendments. One removing abortion as a right and the other giving the state legislature more time to dick around during emergencies.

She is a vacuous bubblehead that Trump allowed to stay as a sop to Romney. But in classic GOPe style, she along with uncle Mitt promptly bit the hand that fed her.

Frankly the RNC, RSC, and whatever they call the House committee are there primarily as ideological GOPe gatekeepers to federal office and exist to thwart any attempt by the party base to have any power whatsoever over the party. Designating Ron Paul as an enemy of the party and creating special rules against him and his followers is simply business as usual. Ditto strangling the Tea Party or Trump.

A wild-a$$ guess?
They fear an unusual increase in Dems voting GOP and that threatens to upset the illusion of winning, as well as the cushion for fraudulent counts?

For example, when Philadelphia goes 110% for the Dem, it's less likely noticeable (who bothers checking that turnout when it's ALWAYS 100% Dem), as well as it means they have to produce fewer fake ballots (pad in places where no GOP win is expected). Harder to handwave away a red wave if GOP gets significantly more votes in the bluest of indigo blue cities, right?

Of course I want to see the Democrats suffer a historically humiliating defeat, losing not just the house and senate by large margins, but also state and down-ballot races. But I've seen these "realignment" elections before. Nothing really changes. The Democrats aren't going to sober up and realize there's more to policy than LGBTQ issues and Climate Change. By the same token, it'll be business as usual for the Mc's, who'll dutifully reward their big donors, and roll right on.

389 Looking at the sample ballot there's not much for me to vote on other than the House and Senate races and some county related bullshit stuff (like the jailer). There are two state constitutional amendments. One removing abortion as a right and the other giving the state legislature more time to dick around during emergencies. That one is supposed to curb the governor's power.... like during covid when he locked the state down.

Wonder how busy the polling place is now?

390 For example, when Philadelphia goes 110% for the Dem, it's less likely noticeable (who bothers checking that turnout when it's ALWAYS 100% Dem), as well as it means they have to produce fewer fake ballots (pad in places where no GOP win is expected). Harder to handwave away a red wave if GOP gets significantly more votes in the bluest of indigo blue cities, right?

The idea that the "centrist" Democrats who actually do occasionally make moderate noises losing all power while the radicals that openly call for unlimited spending on everything, trannies and drag queens in every school, and an abortion for every woman no matter what or when will lead to Democratic dominance is some of my favorite wishcasting from the left.

It's made all the better because all of those radicals regularly prove themselves to be no more than tools for the establishment anyway, most particularly a few weeks ago when they retracted the letter calling for an end to the war in Ukraine.

454 Republicans will win handily, and then they will blow it for the America because unimaginative, cowardly, political oriented people like McDaniel and McCarthy are what passes for leadership. They will pursue the same weak, vapid, empty and meaningless political goals as a substitute to leading with principled material policies that lead to real positive change. They won't be able to keep this Republican freshman class under their thumb and therefore will spend more time trying to corral the caucus members into their establishment ways then getting things done.

A little off topic, but your comment made me think of this - the media covers political appearances/rallies in black churches all the time, as if it is perfectly legal and appropriate. Why are we not forcing the IRS to take away those churches' tax exempt status? Any time a republican tries to do the same in a white church, hell is raised about how tax-exempt religious organizations are not supposed to be involved in politics.

I'm sick of seeing dems campaign in the pulpit of black churches with no consequences for the black churches. One of the things a republican president has to do is put a stop to that. And I don't care if the answer is that the GOP is scarred of being called "racist" or that doing so will hurt our chances of getting black votes. As long as the dems are allowed to campaign in black churches the dems will continue to have dominance for black votes.

It's made all the better because all of those radicals regularly prove themselves to be no more than tools for the establishment anyway, most particularly a few weeks ago when they retracted the letter calling for an end to the war in Ukraine.

562 The problem with Detroit is the same problem that has gone on for years. Poll workers are hired , told to attend the mandatory class pre- election and they do not. The ones that show up have no clue what they are supposed to do but since they showed up and expect to be paid, whoever is running the show sits them down in front of voters. So the registration rolls are ignored, ballots are run over and over, there is virtually no one tech savvy to work the tabulating machines, the voters are clueless, and in the end when rolls and numbers do not match and the Republican canvassar says she cannot certify the election she is threatened with violence and a judge says she must certify. And today we are voting to make certification mandatory based on numbers whether they are accurate or not.

565 No court has found it unconstitutional.
Posted by: Mehive
--------------------
If I can go to the Sierra club meetings and speak about candidates and keep my non profit, then churches should be able to do the same. Meetings are not the same as advertising on such as tv, radio, or print ads or other such.

The law is not as applied constitutional because it singles out religious institutions among all the host of other non profits that are tax exempt. Meetings have always been treated differently than advertising or signage by the way and you can have a meeting of the Boy Scouts and advocate voting for or against a candidate in that meeting without jeopardizing tax exempt status from simply speaking at a meeting.

I would not use that no court has held it unconstitutional because simply Scotus have never ruled on it and state courts can't rule on a federal regulation. IRS has also been very chary of actually enforcing the regulation which makes it difficult to mount a challenge.

We now live in a time where each election will determine whether we are oppressed and perhaps murdered, a totalitarian system monstrous in all regards and certainly bearing no resemblance to a constitutional republic that guarantees a minimum of freedom. I ultimately blame the Republican Party for the current state of affairs because it was happy to act as controlled opposition. McDaniel is pre-announcing its usual betrayal.

I expect the Republicans will have a good night and the Democrats will steal races in Pennsylvania, at a minimum, to prevent election reforms. Being total idiots, the GOP will think it has been vindicated by all the new voters it brought into the fold and be glad people like me did not participate. Of course, the Left will throw crumbs to tonight's defectors, they will return to vote Democratic, and the GOP will be smaller after all that shakes out because it failed to hold new voters and lost a slice of its traditional voters.

The system has failed.

590 Inspecting the sample ballot online before I go down there. Turns out we have a proposed amendment to the Illinois constitution, which would add union organizing to our bill of rights, and would explicitly prohibit any new right-to-work laws. Imma vote no on that.

That will kill Illinois as a viable state - it hardly is now. Businesses will flee - and new businesses will scratch them off any list they may have put them on. I hope it passes, just so the idiots in Illinois can get it good and hard. They keep voting for it, learn to live with it.

591 HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!! 🤣

I've continually posted on this site and over other sites, how voting Republicans into office won't change a damn thing because I knew - I KNEW! - that as soon as (if) the G.O.P. was victorious, they'd start making excuses about why they weren't fulfilling their campaign promises.

And here's the proof in the last few weeks. First we have Kevin McCarthy (ever the swamp creature we all know he is), stating they won't be using impeachment against Biden, Mayorkas, Ray or ANY of the worst people in this illegitiment administration. And now, here's Rona ROMNEY McDaniel broadcasting loud and clear, the GOPe intention to "work" with Biden. Funny, I don't remember Democrats ever trying to work with President Trump. I just remember them saying NO and being defiant to the point Trump had to use excutive orders to get anything done.

That's YOUR Republican Party! They CAN'T WAIT to work with Democrats to "get things done" and take away more of your freedoms. On top of that, they are going to try to HELP Biden!!! What the utter fuck is the point of Republicans?!?!?

The time for the MAGA divorce from Republicans is NOW.

592 147 Just going to say it and go work the rest of the day.

There is going to be an election in 2024. Just like there is an election in 2022 (despite the confident predictions of many here).

That analyst is just black pilling you. Quit falling for it.

As I said at the end of the podcast, the left, Establishment, and WEF want you to think you have no voice. Because then you let them win by default.

I'd have thought that, after your performance two years ago, you might be a bit less arrogant. But, as Jim Geddes said to Charlie Kane, you'll need more than one lesson.

(BTW, can you get a Jim Geddes bumper sticker?)

595 "I wondered also. Where I grew up it was: "Swing a dead cat. . . " Similarly, the phrase "until the last dog died" was in play. Meaning, until the very end - I imagine it referenced dog fighting."

I first heard the phrase, "can't swing a dead cat without hitting a church" was from reading Huckleberry Finn as a child.

598 The left, right center paradigm isnt a myth. It is simply really dumb people that don't spend five fkn minutes thinking about it that call it that.

Right wing means small Govt
Leftwing means large Govt.

599 Going OT for a second, but I went to my followup doctor’s appointment yesterday and was declared cancer free/cured. They told me to go away, and just see them next year for regular exam.

"GO AWAY!"
"Yep. Oke doke!"

So happy for you.

Just saw the dermotolgist yesterday. She a young twit and when I said go ahead and burn those nasty things off she complied.

The lesions on my body are older than she is. If one is raised and multi-colored I want it gone, she left it up to me, had 3 zapped.

I had 3 burned off and steroid injections for my shebhorric dermitetis on my head, that was a winner. That will drive you nuts scratching it.

She finally said we can inject hydrocortisone to calm it down. Well yes, she did 6 shots there in my skull, didn't hurt like arm shots. I'm just going to assume my prostate cancer is cured, that's the best for my mental health.

Congrats kraken, be well young man.

606 So I'm going to go out on a limb and say that today nobody wants to talk about whether the RSV surge is real of falsely magnified by testing strategies, and whether the Amoxicillin shortage is real and if so is it tied to distorted prescribing practices vs. supply chain problems...

No? Okay, I'll be over here in the corner if anyone needs me.

608 I voted even though there was nearly zero campaign activity, signs, nothing here in Boston. I wrote Anyone Else for any race where there was no R. My asshole congressman, Stephen Lynch could not be bothered to spend a penny or 10 minutes here in his hometown asking for anyone’s vote. It is so depressing when your vote literally doesn’t matter. But I still show up every time cause F YOU that’s why.

I think most of our corruption would go away if we abolished the income tax. Not gonna happen, but it's what built the Leviathan and turned our activists and legislators into whores.

612 "... and that Willard Mitt Romney was a man of probity and character..."

No disrespect meant to Mr. Walsh, but anyone who ever thought that must not have taken a very close look at Willard. Being surprised at Romney's lack of principle is akin to being surprised by Obama's leftism.

613 Nothing to be concerned about. If the GOP wins they'll preen and strut for the cameras, unless someone calls them racist and then they'll run away. It will all just be a giant circus and won't accomplish much, unless it's war with Russia. War is the one thing the GOP can accomplish.
