The Morning Report — 11/18/22

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and honestly, I have no idea what the hell I want to write about. I don't want to diminish the importance of the issue of our legally-rigged election system, but at this point what more is there to say about it? The kabuki-bukkake antics of the GOP miraculously retaking the House in the wake of the aforementioned rigging is equally non-thrilling. Wow. More hearings into the Bidens and Fauci and the FBI which will go nowhere, or else result in wrist-slaps if not book deals and CNN analyst gigs as punishment – for us, not the criminals. And as I stated yesterday, Trump vs. DeSantis is dead with me until further notice. Not until the angle is something substantive and not propaganda machine-driven demoralization pieces.

There are bright spots, such as the averting of a potential World War 3-opening salvo showing that missiles that landed on Polish soil were not fired from Russia, as everyone and his uncle who are hot and horny to light up their Raytheon futures has been shrieking but actually came from Ukraine. Yes, that Ukraine where Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants and his bastard crack addict son are up to their bloodshot eyeballs in graft along with the man everyone thinks is the second coming of Churchill, Zelensky but is in fact getting fat and happy on billions in US aid money. I'm no Putin fan at all, but when the locus of the destruction of this nation and indeed the peace and prosperity that was the 75-year period of the pax Americana – that is, the Democrat Party, the Bush-Cheney wing, the EU and the WEF – are all lined up against him, you'd have to be in complete denial not to at least ask yourself why?

But I digress. Here is one bright spot in the sea of darkness and despair:

After being elected to the school board on Nov. 8, six members endorsed by the parental rights in education group Moms for Liberty banned Critical Race Theory (CRT) and set up a process to eliminate sexually explicit books at their first meeting.
On Tuesday, the Berkeley County School Board in South Carolina passed a resolution 6-2 that prohibits CRT from being taught in the classroom and voted 8-0 to form a committee to review books that have been flagged for sexually explicit content. The board also voted 6-3 to fire the school district’s superintendent Deon Jackson and the district’s lawyer Tiffany Richardson. . .
. . . At the meeting, the board defined CRT using the Goldwater Institute’s definition saying it is “a perspective on modern life — a worldview — that believes all the events and ideas around us in politics, education, entertainment and the media, the workplace and beyond must be explained in terms of racial identities.”

It does a heart good to read this as well as to know that it's not just a lone example. Bit by bit, school boards and community boards are changing hands. The mass crime against humanity that was the panic-demic response unintentionally did some good, in letting parents sneak a peek over their kids' shoulders during remote class sessions only to discover that they were being brainwashed with anti-American agitprop and porn-tinged lessons in every single subject.

That's how Virginia was able to eject Terry McAuliffe and much of (the majority?) of Virginia's legislature. Virginia's proximity to Sodom-on-the-Potomac made its turning blue seemingly inevitable and permanent. And yet we now have Glenn Youngkin, Winsome Sears and others fighting back and wresting control. Funny though how the reaction from "diversity, inclusion, equity" or D-I-E crowd is anything but. The cries of "book banning" and "censorship" would be risible were it not for the fact that educators and lecturers who do not toe the approved line are to be silenced, fired, blacklisted, or worse. And that "worse" was petitioning the junta to criminalize parents as terrorists who stood up and spoke out at school board meetings, which as we all know the junta eagerly obliged.

The Left is all about peaceful coexistence. That is, with us buried in a mass grave and them micturating on it as they sing (shriek) a rousing chorus of "Kumbaya" and "Imagine." Let's face facts. We are in a generational struggle, here. You can look at the coming of Trump, and even Reagan, as one-off flukes or speed bumps in the inevitable decline and fall of America or as opening salvos and rallying cries. At 62, and considering everything we're up against, the odds of me seeing an American rebirth in my lifetime are slim to none. In fact, I fear things are going to get much worse before they get better. But you have to push on and push back no matter the consequences. There really is no choice. School boards, community boards or even having the stones to tell people at work who and what you are and what you believe, no matter the consequences.

As the Left is always fond of saying, "Do it for the children!"

Have a good weekend.

14 The misnamed Recovery Act was a corrupt disaster, but, more relevantly for Democrats, it didn’t deliver anything meaningful and foreshadowed Obama’s transformation from the chosen one to just another politician. While Obama still did a great deal of damage, the FDR moment never came, and without it.

Even when trying to criticize corrupt politicians like Obama journolist still have severe ingrained reverence for FDR. His policies add 5 to 7 year to the Great Depression!

33 The Billingsley story about Chula Vista, and the grandson of the Black September leader running for Mayor, reminds me of how dangerous is our border. This guy, and his terrorist mosque, are probably hosting arriving waves of terror troops.

no one blames him for Black September. He is, however, a member of a mosque that hosted three 9/11 terrorists, and provided travel money to them. He does live ten miles from the border, the open border, and a number of terror watch list suspects have recently been arrested crossing that border.

The article adds all that together, and maybe unfairly, but you at least ought to be aware of the possibilities. No conclusions are made, which disappoints you apparently, but now you at least know of some possibilities.

No. As I have grown up and watched how the world works, I have come to a very simple, very basic conclusion: Anyone with authority in public institutions or public companies (that is, companies in which any Tom, Dick or Harry can invest) that registers any objection whatsoever to any call for transparency of any kind is up to something.

For years, Egyptologists and archaeologists have thought the Great Sphinx of Giza to be about 4,500 years old, dating to around 2500 B.C. However, some recent studies have suggested that the Sphinx was built as long ago as 7000 B.C.

Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert, a renowned conservative firebrand whose combative style helped define the new right, is likely headed to an automatic recount in her bid to fend off a surprisingly difficult challenge by a Democratic businessman from the ritzy ski town of Aspen.

The Associated Press has declared the election in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District too close to call. AP will await the results of a potential recount to call the race. With nearly all votes counted, the incumbent Boebert leads Democrat Adam Frisch by 0.16 percentage points, or 551 votes out of nearly 327,000 votes counted.

166 The Immunity Debt and Why We're Sicker Than Usual

******

I'm not sure Dr. Jackson makes his case.

1. You can't have it both ways, claiming that masking and social distancing did nothing to stop the spread of SARS-2 while simultaneously saying that those measures induced an "immunity debt" by preventing exposure to other diseases.
2. In a post-COVID world, the health care system is in a heightened state of vigilance. RSV historically is noted within the population (in the northern hemisphere) from Sept to March. It started rising this year in Sept (although there was a transient bump in July.). The typical onset of RSV season is marked by young infants with wheezing (due to bronchiolitis). When ER's start seeing this symptom, they ramp up testing for RSV. Much of the apparent rise in RSV cases can be chalked up to increased testing.

178 Another tidbit about coyotes:

In some rural areas people will just let their dogs run wild. Female dogs will sometimes mate with coyotes. Those offspring are called "coydogs." Likewise male dogs that mate with coyotes are called "dogotes." What's a bit disturbing is that they have the feral instincts of coyotes with a domestic dog's lack of fear of humans. There are other traits as well.

The guy's horse was in a bad position; alone, fenced in, and old. The coyotes cornered him and were able to tear a hunk of flesh out near one of the legs where it attaches to the body of the horse. It will survive.

194 In some rural areas people will just let their dogs run wild. Female dogs will sometimes mate with coyotes. Those offspring are called "coydogs." Likewise male dogs that mate with coyotes are called "dogotes." What's a bit disturbing is that they have the feral instincts of coyotes with a domestic dog's lack of fear of humans. There are other traits as well.

The guy's horse was in a bad position; alone, fenced in, and old. The coyotes cornered him and were able to tear a hunk of flesh out near one of the legs where it attaches to the body of the horse. It will survive.

196 >>We need to stop thinking defensively and start moving into leftist territory. That's what Trump was trying to do.

In the short-term we need to do exactly what Scott Pressler said, start adopting leftists tactics and using them against the left.

Republicans proudly proclaim they vote on election day as a badge of honor. The left has seized on that and made election rules that help them defeat our election day vote and then we sit around and bitch that they are corrupt.

Ballot harvesting and mass mail in voting exists in certain areas and it's not going to change until Republicans take over if ever. So we need to start adopting their tactics and using them. There's no law that says Republicans can't ballot harvest and vote early and that's exactly what they have done in certain districts in CA and they've won.

As Alinsky would say, use their own rules against them and win.

It might end up being impossible to tell. They have no paper trail - it was set to automatically delete itself - and they kept poor records and the moved a ton of money all over the place and Sam Bank Fraud probably stole whatever was left in the final hours of his company's existence. I would guess - but that's all it is - that he walked away with at least $50 million and maybe a billion or more (minus however much he is giving to the Bahamas government to protect him for long enough to engineer his escape and hole-up elsewhere).

270 Morning, 'rons and 'ronettes.

Robert Clary of Hogan’s Heroes Fame Dies at Age 96

Trivia: Originally, producer Edward Feldman had the show set in an Italian POW camp, with the show titled Campo 44. However, the setting didn't capture anyone's attention, and so with a tweak and a nod to the movie Stalag 17 the show was reset to Germany.

In the pilot episode (which tells you the year is 1944), among Hogan's 'heroes' is a Russian POW played by Leonid Kinskey. He decided to quit the show after the pilot, saying he simply couldn't participate in a show that took place in Nazi Germany, even if it were played for laughs.

Not really. They were in a hot new space (Crypto), followed the Amazon "get big fast" model, were hip youngsters, opened the money sluices to pour into government officials and protect themselves (and buy favor), were next-gen and high-tech and made all the right mouth-noises to curry favor with the big globalist types.

They are incompetent, lackadaisical crooks who jumped on a mania and got staggeringly rich in a short period of time through luck and fraud, and they kept the ball rolling by buying protection. I doubt FTX was some sort of elaborate Party finance op from jump street. It has all the markings of the kind of shit that happens during manias (and crypto has been a mania a couple of times), blended with some new-fangled political intrigue.

287 I think Peter Navarro tried to aggregate all the vote fraud evidence into website, but I don't think its gained any traction in the popular discussion --certainly nothing that the GOPe has referred to, to respond to the idiot refrain of "no evidence of massive voter fraud."

In just the past week there have been two major stories, with detailed public evidence, of massive voter fraud: one in NJ (NY Post article) and the Milwaukee pol just fired/investigated.

Every "without evidence of massive fraud" article if 100% "disinformation" by present standards. Its really the opposite problem. There is so much evidence, so many stories, videos etc of industrial-scale democrat fraud that the challenge is for someone to put it all together in a neat package, and for everyone else to know where to refer to.

Yeah, that was at the tail end of the Carter years. I'd just moved back in early '79, and I think the King Tut exhibit was on then.

The Carter years might have been lousy, but the times weren't *all* bad. .55/gal. for gas, .69 for a full-size bag of Doritos, $5 for (admittedly cheap) bourbon or blended whiskey, $100 rent for a 1 bedroom, $1.25 for a movie ticket! And you could still lose a job on Friday and start working at another within a week or two; we didn't have endless layers of "Hooman Resources professionals" to work our way through.

304 >>Call me naive or old-fashioned but my visceral reaction to “Republicans should play the ballot harvesting game if they want to win” is an emphatic NO!!

I was of that opinion for years and I've come to the conclusion I was wrong. We will not win in places that have adopted these rules if we don't learn to use the rules that are in place instead of the rules we want to be in place. It's just that simple.

Arizona is a textbook example. The left banked their early votes weeks before the election and when election day rolled around they made sure there was just enough problems in Republican districts to depress the vote. And those rules aren't changing until we take over and we aren't taking over until we win.

My ultimate goal is paper ballots and same day voting for all with voter ID but the reality is we don't live in that world right now. We either play the game with the rules that exist or we lose and I hate losing.

I think you should look at little deeper into SBF's family and some of the staffers at FTX who aren't getting much ink. This was not a random collection of people.

I suppose that depends on who we elect. I think Kari Lake would have. She ran on it and was gearing up for meetings in January to change the rules. She would've won in a walk with fair elections and everyone, particularly the left, knows it.

I think in the areas we keep losing were we shouldn't like AZ, PA, GA, etc. where the rules have been changed to help the left it would be beneficial for our candidates to change the rules because we are already more popular. Democrats adopted these rules because they needed to get around fair elections not because they were more popular.

Damn, sorry to hear this Count.

My friend had this palsy as a result of Lyme disease and it was difficult for the doctors to find evidence for it in his blood. Eventually, he also needed to be treated for Babesia (which is some sort of co-infection often accompanying Lyme). Babsia can really do damage.

I've heard a new antibiotic (called Azlocillin) is coming soon for Lyme, if Lyme is involved in your palsy.

No. Participating in Dem-style cheating in cheat-by-mail states is a race to the bottom.

The Republicans ought to do it, and do it as skillfully and completely as they can, but have no illusions that it will result in the problem getting fixed. After all, why do away with such a valuable tool?

The cheat-by-mail states are done for. Elections do not exist there in any meaningful way, and the context will be who can cheat most effectively. The defense mechanism is to prevent cheat-by-mail from being implemented anywhere else.

Posted by: Zombie Robbo the Llama Butcher at November 18, 2022 08:33 AM (906pl)

It will use gravity assist by the Earth and Sun to slowly spiral-out around the Earth until the high-point of its orbit around Earth intersects the Moon's orbit. Then it fires its engine to go into lunar orbit. I can't find a decent diagram of this right now. It is a technique that has long been known and has been used several times. Its benefit is very, very low propellant usage by the spacecraft to get to the Moon's path around Earth.

432 Charles Darwin wrote one book that the current batch of enviro-extremists hate. Remember how they're always screaming that South Pacific islands will sink under the horrible rising seas? One of Darwin's other works was a book long examination of his study of coral reefs. (he was on a long voyage there, but I don't think it was on the Bounty) His conclusion was that Coral Atolls would *always* rise or fall to meet the current level of the ocean no matter what that level was, because they were living things that reacted to their environment. They are constantly growing, shrinking, and adapting.

Just like we do when we look at the stars in the visible light spectrum.

499 Re: Student Loans:

Instapundit has a link by Robert Shibley on first-year college students not even knowing they had federal student loans. 28% of them. Discussion ensured on it, some mention of how the loans are called "Student Aid" and similar, hiding the truth of what is actually a debt, and who owns it.

My mind tied this to the medical field. Government jumps in, spends a lot of cash while getting promises to pay from the users of its so-called benevolence. For college, tuition skyrockets even as quality suffers. Students get a shoddy product with empty promises of future benefits, then a debt they can't discharge because government. There's almost no explanation of what the costs are, or options for clarity in what the expenses are. Just that things are heavily marked up like textbooks, and cartels to prevent price savings (like requiring the newest-year edition of a textbook).

With healthcare, government meddling caused wage controls. Companies snuck around that with health insurance benefits, then government took over insurance. Sure, it's private, as long as they follow all 1 million Federal rules. And you know how much of a black box medical fees are.

500 No the Big Bang was real and it was spectacular, the question you have to ask yourself is are you on Team Dark Energy or Team Dark Matter?

I'm a Team Dark Matter guy myself.

501 Gary Gensler is the current SEC Chairman under the Biden regime.

Gensler was Hillary Clinton’s Campaign CFO and funded the notorious Trump-Russia lie.

Gensler also taught at MIT with Glenn Ellison who is the father of Caroline Ellison.

Caroline is the famous girlfriend of FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried.

502 Seriously? Facebook Censors Bible Verse

'Be still, and know that I am God.' Really? That was considered violent and/or graphic content?

Now do that with Koran verses. I dare you. There are some doosies.

503 so what was the FBI looking for at MAL ?
--------

My theory is that the WH heard about the dispute with the national archives and ordered the FBI to go in, hoping to embarrass Trump. When the backlash came they forced Garland to go out and take responsibility for it, and have been trying to create some sort of justification after the fact.

The needed something to vilify Trump, and hoped to find something, anything to help Letitia James' inquisition of Trump in New York.

506 I feel the exasperation as well, JJ. All I know is my local MN area(pop. 5,000) flipped the school board and city council to republican specifically unrooting any semblance of CRT or LGBTQ furries. All we can do right now. I will be organizing to maximize 'ballot submission assistance' as much as possible for 2024.

507 I agree with you, J. J. The road ahead is rough, but all we can do is live in goodness. Like in 'A Serious Man' the wise rabbi, the wisest man anyone could know, told Larry Gropnik, beset by all the vicissitudes of life: "Be a good boy." That was it. Fate is fate. Be good.
