The Morning Report — 9/1/23

bidenhelmetpeek.jpg

Good morning, kids. If there is one overarching theme or characteristic to the horrifying state of the nation and the world in general, arguably it's got to be the attempt at every level to silence any and all voices of dissent and opposition to those who have brought us to said state. A number of stories today (and every day, really) serve to underscore this proposition. First, I've heard of bombing when you tell a joke. But SWAT-ing?

Whatever one may think of the COVID-19 situation, one thing that cannot be denied is that it pushed America to its breaking point. Between the lockdowns, the closures, the runs on stores, the increase in substance abuse, and the online predation of children, and the the impromptu Salem Witch Trials of people seen without socially acceptable masks, it was a rough time in America. And plenty of people tried to inject a little levity into the situation to take the edge off, including Alexandria, Louisiana, resident Waylon Bailey.

The Washington Post reports that in March 2020, Bailey posted the following to his Facebook page:

SHARE SHARE SHARE ! ! ! ! JUST IN: RAPIDES PARISH SHERIFFS OFFICE HAVE ISSUED THE ORDER, IF DEPUTIES COME INTO CONTACT WITH ‘THE INFECTED’ SHOOT ON SIGHT….Lord have mercy on us all. #Covid9teen #weneedyoubradpitt.

Bailey was making a joke. But the Rapides Parish Sheriff’s Office was not laughing. A few hours later, a SWAT team showed up at Bailey’s home without a warrant but with bulletproof vests and brandishing weapons. Bailey was arrested for making a terroristic threat. According to court documents, as Bailey was  handcuffed one of the deputies stated, “…next thing [you] put on Facebook should be not to f*ck with the police.” The other officers laughed. . .
. . . It was also noted that Bailey’s post was in response to another comical post and contained emojis.

The appellate judge ruled that Bailey could continue with his legal action and concluded that the district court was in error when it said that Bailey’s post was not protected by the First Amendment and in granting qualified immunity to Iles and Wood. And then it reiterated that it “REVERSE the district court’s grant of summary judgment to Defendants and REMAND for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.”

. . . I’ve known a lot of cops, and almost every one of them was a stand-up person. That having been said, what happened in Alexandria, Louisiana? The detectives I knew would have put something out on Facebook (had it existed at the time) letting the public know that they were not shooting, arresting, harassing, or otherwise vexing infected people. And then they may well have called Mr. Bailey in to explain himself. They would not have sent a SWAT team to Bailey’s home.

The pandemic brought out the worst in many people. . .

. . . This is unfortunate. We have come to expect that our federal government will co-opt a crisis to expand its reach. It is even more unfortunate when it happens on a local level. It is what happens when people succumb to a crisis, rather than rise to it. Even more chilling is the fact that the post that set the SWAT team into motion was intended as a joke. Compound that with the facts that the district court found that Bailey’s rights had not been violated and shielded the detective and the sheriff, a clear picture emerges as to how dire things are. And not just for Donald Trump and his supporters or for someone who was defending his son outside of an abortion clinic. Even one’s jokes are suspect. Now, an off-hand Facebook comment could land one in Room 101.

That's just it. The "pandemic" – that is the artificially-induced "panic" over what really was bad flu, its origins notwithstanding – or really any other crisis should have brought out the best in us. What happened revealed not so much human nature, but how the greatest society and people on earth, once a beacon of morality and decency flawed though from time to time it might have been, had been so utterly degenerated by the forces of heathen leftist progressivism.

There's always been corruption and crooked cops to one degree or another everywhere, even here in the USA. But as we know all to well, the police have been far from the defenders of our civil liberties as was amply demonstrated during the lockdowns as well as the George Floyd summer of love wave of terror.

In that vein, we move from the police to the prosecutors, judges and worst of all, the juries. That is, our erstwhile fellow citizens in these two cases:

First, for the crime of sitting down and blocking a doorway, this happens:

The Biden Department of Justice successfully swayed a jury on Tuesday to convict five pro-life activists for demonstrating at a controversial abortion clinic, which the DOJ argued violated the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, also known as the FACE Act.

Conservatives quickly expressed outrage over the case, especially since the activists — Lauren Handy, 28, John Hinshaw, 67, Heather Idoni, 61, William Goodman, 52, and Herb Geraghty, 25, — face 11 years behind bars and were thrown in jail to await their sentences. The activists also each face a $350,000 fine.

“The evil apparatchiks in Washington, DC, are imprisoning these five patriots for this simple act of demonstrating against abortion,” [pundit Michael] Knowles said. “These five pro-life activists  demonstrated in defense of babies at an abortion mill, an infanticide factory, and for that they face more than a decade in prison.”

The activists engaged in a sit-in demonstration at the D.C.-based Washington Surgi-Clinic late-term abortion facility in October 2020. According to reporting from CBN, the demonstrators sang songs, prayed, locked arms in front of the facility’s staff entrance, and attached themselves with ropes and chains to block doors inside the building in an effort to “delay the murder of kids,” the activists said.

I would admit that blocking doors with ropes and chains, regardless of the reasoning, is definitely criminal behavior But does it warrant over a decade in prison and financial ruin, epecially in light of how homegrown and illegal alien murderers, rapists and thieves are dealt with by the same prosecutors, judges and juries?

Ditto this:

Biggs, a 38-year-old U.S. Army veteran of Ormond Beach, Florida, was convicted in May of seditious conspiracy; conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding; obstruction of an official proceeding; conspiracy to use force, intimidation or threats to prevent officers of the U.S. from discharging their duties; interference with law enforcement during civil disorder; and destruction of government property.

During his sentencing hearing, he reportedly admitted that he “messed up” on January 6 while claiming he was “seduced by the crowd” to move forward at the nation’s Capitol.

“I know that I messed up that day, but I am not a terrorist,” he said.

“I wanted to see what would happen,” he said. “My curiosity got the better of me, and I’ll have to live with that for the rest of my life.”“I’m not a terrorist,” he added. “I don’t have hate in my heart.”

Another former leader of the Proud Boys was sentenced to 15 years in prison on Thursday.

Unlike the pro-life protestors who did commit "crimes," albeit of a relatively benign nature, these guys and everyone else who made the mistake of being duped into being invited into the Capitol Building by the FBI and DOJ, were even less "criminal" in their behavior, doing nothing more than getting tricked into the moral equivalent of a panty raid. And for that, they have been ruined and forced to "confess" much in the same manner as those beaten into signing their names for Stalin and Beria. And considering there are multiple confirmed reports of abuse by guards in the jails where scores of people still languish to this day, that is not hyperbole.

But as I stated above, the worst are our erstwhile fellow citizens. Not just on juries either but in our everyday lives who are de facto judges, juries and executioners if we dare commit the crime of wrong-think in their presence:

George Washington University ’24 Law School student Tahmineh Dehbozorgi knows the dangers of a weaponized justice system. Earlier this week, she told me how, as a teenager, she and her family fled from one in Iran in 2015.

Dehbozorgi’s grandfather was among the first targets of the new regime after the fall of the Shah in 1979. He was thrown in prison, where he faced execution without trial. His crime: He worked as a public servant in the previous government before the Islamic Revolution.

The new Islamic regime also used guilt-by-association tactics to prosecute lawyers who represented its opponents. So when the news broke here that President Trump’s legal advisers would be indicted along with him, Dehbozorgi was alarmed.  Earlier this month, she went on Fox and Friends to talk about why the government’s prosecution of Trump’s lawyers should bother everyone, regardless of which side you’re on.

As she later tweeted:

As a law student, seeing attorneys named as co-conspirators and threatened to have their licenses revoked only because they gave legal advice to former President Trump worries me. This is against the very nature of the American justice system I’ve long aspired to be a part of:

— Tahmineh Dehbozorgi (@DeTahmineh) August 16, 2023

As if to prove her point, left-wing “Law Twitter” swiftly reacted warning that she may not be able to pass the character fitness test for admission to the bar. The morning after she tweeted about her Fox appearance, prominent Maryland lawyer and DNC operative Robbie Leonard, tweeted:

If she’s in law school in Maryland, then please put me on her character committee interview.

This suggests that if it were up to him (which it’s not) Dehbozorgi wouldn’t pass her character and fitness exam—essential for bar admission in every US jurisdiction. . .

. . . There was no due process for Dehbozorgi’s grandfather. He sat in prison for months with other employees of the former government until her grandmother finally got him out. Many of his colleagues were killed by the regime without a trial. She says, “nobody, no party, should be using the justice system for their political gain.”

As an aside, now you can understand why our criminal justice system is so utterly fucked up: because our law schools have been pumping out little Roland Freisler's by the bushel for decades now. And that's a microcosm our educational system in general.

In any case, let's compare how one Iranian is being treated, with another very different one, via friend and friend of the blog Robert Spencer:

If a Martian appeared in Washington, D.C. today, made a thorough study of the contemporary scene (which takes Martians about six seconds, ya know), and concluded that a traitor class had captured the U.S. government and was determined to drive the nation into a ditch, how could you convince him or her or xer otherwise? Certainly not from the actions of U.S. Strategic Command (STRATCOM), which just featured as a speaker a former top official of the Iranian regime. Yes, that Iranian regime, the one whose top officials frequently chant, “Death to America.”

The Washington Free Beacon reported Tuesday that STRATCOM “earlier this month hosted a former top Iranian official who came under fire last year for bragging about the hardline regime’s efforts to assassinate American leaders.” STRATCOM’s featured America-hater was Hussein Mousavian, “a former member of Iran’s nuclear negotiating team who works as a Middle East security and nuclear policy specialist at Princeton University.”

Why is a guy from a regime that considers the United States an enemy and has vowed to destroy it working at Princeton University, as well as speaking for U.S. Strategic Command? Because the same America-hating leftism has infected them both. . .

. . . In response to the entirely justifiable outrage, STRATCOM issued the expected mealy-mouthed non-apology: “We always seek in our panelists and speakers a broad array of perspectives, including those which differ from our own. We were aware of Mr. Mousavian’s previous position within the Iranian government and believe that, in the context of the Deterrence Symposium, we would have benefited from that insight into an opposing viewpoint.” Yeah, sure, the Biden regime is renowned the world over for its respect for opposing viewpoints.

As Robert Spencer also reports – which made my heart sink – NYC will make this guy feel right at home just before the 22nd anniversary of when, as Bro-Fo Omar states, "Some people did some things."

Of course at the top of the heap of all this is the Biden Regime's revolting persecution of its chief political rival Donald Trump, both as a distraction from its own real, massive and potentially treasonous selling out of our national security and as a means to put down once and for all the resistance that he, Trump knowingly or not, engendered. And on that note, at the risk of pissing many of you off, it pisses me off that in the face of all of this, Trump of all people goes on as if it's business as usual.

As people in Florida dealt with the fallout of the hurricane, Trump posted about how he got more votes than DeSantis in Florida, though DeSantis was on a midterm ballot and Trump was on a presidential ballot.

“Ron DeSanctimonious is always talking about the number of votes he got in Florida,” Trump posted Thursday in a video. “He doesn’t say that I got a record 1.1 million more votes than him!”

Really, Mr. President? Please, for the love of all that is right and good, stop. Just stop. Meh. He won't. The nation and the world are at an inflection point and this man, despite his foibles, is still an undeniable force to be reckoned with because of the millions of people who appreciate what he did and what he is going through. That includes me. But this kind of stuff is just a turn-off. And that's putting it mildly. Then again, what does it matter? If they are going to try and likely succeed in stealing 2024 like they did 2020, then why should I get so upset? We're gone anyway, right?

Have a good Labor Day weekend. See you tomorrow for the hobby thread. Be there. Aloha.

But if we are to believe the historian Samuel Moyn, one form of utopianism survived this end-of-history moment. This was the human-rights movement, which Moyn dubbed “the last utopia” in his 2010 book of that title. Against the background of the failures of communism and postcolonial independence, Moyn argues, human rights emerged out of leftist disenchantment. Organized around a universal, homogenized, and abstract humanity, human-rights activism focused on a minimal politics of negative freedoms, rather than broader social transformation. Indeed, human rights were initially conceived as a prophylactic against the excesses of fascism and communism. If the sort of fundamental societal overhaul envisioned by earlier utopian projects was no longer feasible, people could at least be free from arbitrary imprisonment, torture, and extrajudicial murder at the hands of the state. Limited in scope, this new hybrid of idealism and realism attempted to ensure that innocent victims didn’t suffer the worst forms of human cruelty. Human rights aimed for a morality beyond politics structured by an unassailable moral ledger, in which victims and perpetrators were the primary categories.

43 Thank you JJ as always.

The J6 prisoner topic is one that is almost too painful for me to think about. I sometimes avoid Julie Kelly articles because I only get depressed and angry. 15 and 17 years in prison for some of those defendants; we don’t live in a free country anymore. It’s Beria justice. Same with the abortion protesters… 11 years? Compare and contrast with BLM mostly peaceful burning and looting circa summer 2020….

Finally… Why criticize Trump for being Trump?? It’s who he is and won’t change; appreciate what he has done and continues to do. The pluses way outweigh the minuses; I prefer to focus on the positives. And BTW… he can win.

62 Really, Mr. President? Please, for the love of all that is right and good, stop. Just stop. Meh. He won't. The nation and the world are at an inflection point and a man who, despite his foibles is still an undeniable force to be reckoned with because of the millions of people who appreciate what he did and what he is going through. That includes me. But this kind of stuff is just a turn-off. And that's putting it mildly. Then again, what does it matter? If they are going to try and likely succeed in stealing 2024 like they did 2020, then why should I get so upset? We're gone anyway, right?

Spoilers: the EVs can potentially save a little money, but it's just that. A little. The funniest part is that they really don't save much in maintenance, which is always the big factor cheerleaders point towards - They save roughly $1000 per 45K

(note that they didn't include the expense to install a charger in your home)

One or two thousand dollars over the course of 3 years and 45K miles isn't worth the tradeoff for being able to travel freely wherever and whenever you want with no hassles or significant considerations for refueling, even for people who are on a tight budget.

116 Unlike the pro-life protestors who did commit "crimes," albeit of a relatively benign nature, these guys and everyone else who made the mistake of being duped into being invited into the Capitol Building by the FBI and DOJ, were even less "criminal" in their behavior, doing nothing more than getting tricked into the moral equivalent of a panty raid. And for that, they have been ruined and forced to "confess" much in the same manner as those beaten into signing their names for Stalin and Beria. And considering there are multiple confirmed reports of abuse by guards in the jails where scores of people still languish to this day, that is not hyperbole.
++++
Stalin and Beria were more honest, I think. They took dissidents or suspected dissidents, arrested them, tortured them and then murdered or imprisoned them. It was a fairly straightforward - if deeply evil - transaction. You could confess and repent and not be murdered even though you were innocent, or you could die.

What is going on this country is much, much more dishonest and destructive, more like Red China during the Cultural Revolution than like the USSR during Stalin's reign of terror.

Little Orphan Annie.

The original strip was written by Harold Gray, who despised FDR, even going so far as to kill the character of Daddy Warbucks when FDR won his 4th term in 1944.

The stage musical from the 70s and the subsequent adaptations that kept the setting make FDR a kindly old man who just wants to help the people and convinces Daddy Warbucks to support the New Deal.

Gray died in 1968. The musical started getting written less than a decade after his death.

124 Charging at home, with the advent of “smart meters,” consumers can “program” their vehicles to charge at off-peak power times in order to save money — this same smart meter of course is also recording the time, date, duration of charge, and potentially more data from your vehicle of which you won’t even be aware.

-

A buddy's "smart" thermostat went out recently. Just the thing that hangs on the wall to control his new air conditioner he had installed last year.

$1200.

Twelve hundred dollars for what was done for a $50 unit not five years or so ago, and that was a fancy unit with multiple programs and times. I'm betting you could get a basic one for $10.

But no longer. Because they can't control those.

We're in the phase now when they quit pretending. They don't quit pretending entirely - they will *always* pretend to believe in (and work toward) regular order and rules and law and the like.

They have to pretend to be fair, so that the people can pretend that things are fair.

131 Mere weeks after his reelection DeSantis virtually abandoned the people of Florida to traverse the country in his quest for the republican nomination for president. With a hurricane imminent, he does the right thing and returns to FL to do the job he was elected to do. That's a good thing.

But to criticize Trump because he continued his own presidential campaign during this time, and to claim that he didn't give a damn about the people of Florida is just disingenuous. I guaran-damn-tee you that RDS and his sycophants both here and on Twitter never stopped their attacks on Trump as each salacious indictment was handed down. In fact, many took joy in them.

If we're going to pretend there's still elections, if we're going to pretend one of them is by some f'ing miracle going to beat whatever election fraud the left comes up with, if we're going to pretend any of them, Trump, DeSantis or Ramaswamy is going to have the backing/support of the scumbag cocksuckers of the GOP in taking on the Deep State, then who cares if any of the three challenged one or the other to pistols like Burr and Hamilton and killed each other?
Trump is clueless, DeSantis is just another GOP "conservative" flash in the pan(great at the state level, but gonna make a fool of you at the national......happens all the time in case you haven't noticed for the last several decades) and Ramaswamy? Well all the DeSantis supporters that scream at the Trump supporters for saying DeSantis is a RINO/fraud will in turn do the same shit to Ramaswamy when all he's guilty of, really, is showing DeSantis exactly how he should have been campaigning from the get go. Good thing DeSantis cleaned up the voter rolls in Florida to ensure a 20 point win because the guy sucks at campaigning.

Yeah, I was watching the Huston musical last night, and it just didn't jive.

I've never read the strip, but the main character is a rich industrialist who made his own way. Written in the 30s and 40s, that's not the kind of hero of a long-running comic strip, a format that doesn't amend itself to changes in character, to a strip that would seem all that supportive of FDR and his agenda.

No, FDR has to be a hero, no matter what the source material thought.

It also made figurative gags a hot item, so...

Trump simply cannot be allowed onto a national debate stage to oppose a hot war with Russia. He and RFKJr., whom I otherwise despise, will be silenced in their opposition to a psychotic war.

Look for sane approaches to the Ukraine to be increasingly censored, particularly on social media. It could get worse than comments blocked, too. The FBI has been shooting dead folks in their home of late.

The law student has flushed out something particularly troubling, at least it would have been back when the United States had some semblance of democracy. The frontal assaults on the right to counsel, and silencing critics of these politically motivated arrests of attorneys for doing their fucking jobs, also marks the full descent into a Soviet-style tyranny. There will not be a peep from the National Bar Association, which is down with the police state. Local and state bars also are onboard. This was inevitable after the fishing expedition of Michael Cohen's office and the associated silence.

You no longer has the right to counsel or speech, and enjoy the upcoming nuclear war, peasants.

You can. And he could have bought one of those. Very, very few systems *require* a "smart" thermostat. They're a huge selling feature (Smart! Cool! Hip! Futuristic! Right from your phone!), but a bog-standard thermostat that has controllers for everything in the HVAC system will still usually connect up and work.

I have a very, very good Honeywell thermostat that is usually only available to HVAC installers (the internet is good for some things) that was around a hundred bucks, is not smart, works brilliantly and will probably last for 20 or 30 years. I did that on purpose. When I got my new HVAC system put in this year, one of the things on my requirements list was, "is not 'smart' and has zero dependency, for anything, on a network connection." None of that.

BUT...for actual control of the HVAC system, it is all hardwired.

I can loose internet and the system will continue to operate just fine.

But with all the time we have spent out of state since December, it gives me the peace of mind from remote monitoring and control if I choose.

I like the former. Not the latter. I am a big fan of the "smart home" concept and might even pursue it, but *only* if it runs exclusively within the walls of my home. I will run my own server if needed, but my hard and fast commandment for all appliances, switches, locks, etc. - everything that can be even somewhat loosely defined as 'infrastructure' - is "thou shall not go online." The second rule, co-equal with the first, is "thou shall have manual override."

Doing it that way, though, is expensive - which is why I haven't done it yet. Modern IoT smart home stuff is cheap. It's cheap because of both mass production (there is lots of it) and because it spies on (and monetizes) your ass. As a result, it can also be used to control what you can do - even if that is not the original plan.

177 I have a very, very good Honeywell thermostat that is usually only available to HVAC installers (the internet is good for some things) that was around a hundred bucks, is not smart, works brilliantly and will probably last for 20 or 30 years. I did that on purpose. When I got my new HVAC system put in this year, one of the things on my requirements list was, "is not 'smart' and has zero dependency, for anything, on a network connection." None of that.

Yes, probably. Having spare parts might be a good thing. I've been tempted to get another one of these excellent thermostats to keep on a shelf in the garage just in case.

Thankfully, it's fairly easy to bypass things like remote load cutoffs if you're in an area that uses them. But if they have control over your thermostat, that's a much more serious problem if they start getting too pushy with power management.

Of course, the alternative - and the one that they will actually use - is collective punishment. If they can't snipe out loads like A/C, they will just do rolling blackouts - or, as they call it in the country that is our future (South Africa), "load shedding."

What I find fascinating about that - and it has happened to me, and to most drivers with regular routes - is that the "zonked-out driving-on-auto-pilot" phenomenon has been fairly closely studied and it makes no difference to safety. Once you're a truly established driver in familiar territory, the entire activity *can* be pushed to background in normal conditions with no ill effects on safety. You just periodically "wake up" and find yourself much further along than you thought.

204 JJ, Ace and others in the right wing literati are convinced that Trump should drop the constant talk about how the last election was stolen and to move on to what the issues of 2024 are. My opinion is that there is nothing more important than exposing the theft of 2020 and insuring that the same thing never occurs again. Without a basic belief that elections are reasonably fair and accurate, there is nothing else. Fuck tax policy and border security, if the country doesn't believe in the elections the country will crumble.

239 @140 tubal-proof that AoS is monitored by the GOP establishment was the day after the 2022 mid terms when a few nics that I've seen before but hadn't been around for a long while re-appeared full throttle blaming Trump for the lack of a Red Wave. That and the beginnings of Trump Derangement Syndrome by a few here. Blaming the first ever person to campaign on closing the border and taking on the bureaucracy/Deep State as a Republican........then the first GOP career politician that came along echoing MAGA/white trash ideology and all of the GOP shills that were left afloat for four years because of the Big Bad Bully Trump immediately glommed on.
Angry at Orange Man for blowing THEIR opportunity like every other GOP "victory" over the last 40+ years, Reagan, Class Of 94, TeaParty. Tired of showing these useless pricks how to win. Republican Party should have died a long time ago.

The anger and derision for Trump is laughable. If only the GOP uber cons here realized how lucky they were Trump came along otherwise there would be no DeSantis the new GOP Deep State Illegal Immigration Warrior.

Okay. Let's accept the premise that bugs are good (we need food, after all) and raking is bad and that there are no other meaningful considerations.

There aren't enough houses and lots being cleared to matter. The local environment might suffer from too few bugs, but the ecology as a whole will not. Little patches of leaves are removed, not entire forests' worth.

As for President Trump's posts on Truth Social, I get your point and even partially agree but I think a lot of us forget that he is fighting not only the entire Leftist hegemony in America but also at least half of the G.O.P. and their monied corporate masters. And if I was in his shoes, I'd likely keep up what pushback I could against these enemies, who are doing their best to personally destroy him. That's why these posts about his primary opponents, chiefly Desantis, keep coming. He's punching back at both sides, sometimes furiosly.

Trump attacking with smears or defending Ron from smears is irrelevant:
Ron has to win on his own.
This ain't affirmative action, where Ron needs coddled and boosted.

Ron is free to smear Trump.
Trump is free to smear DeSantis.

365 Insider Paper @TheInsiderPaper
NEW - Cowboys again top Forbes list of most valuable NFL teams

The Dallas Cowboys have once again been named the NFL’s most valuable franchise by Forbes magazine, topping the list for the 17th straight year at a valuation of $9 billion.

The list released by Forbes this week — with the American football season due to kick off on September 7 — estimates the club owned by Jerry Jones is worth 13 percent more than they were last year.

Although the Cowboys have only made the playoffs five times in the past 13 seasons, Forbes put their revenue at $1.14 billion.

The New England Patriots at $7 billion, Los Angeles Rams at $6.9 billion, New York Giants at $6.8 billion and Chicago Bears at $6.3 billion completed the top five.

Jones bought the Cowboys for $140 million in 1989 — when he was 46 years old — from team owner and friend H.R. “Bum” Bright in the largest deal at the time for an NFL team.

I don't think so. I don't think it's about being a victim so much as it is about a soulless robot trying to be relatable. This is common in politicians. They are, to a man, inauthentic. They have to be. They're demons pretending to men. This is one of the reasons Trump did so well. Like him or hate him, Trump is *real.* Everyone else in Washington is a phony and has been for so long that they couldn't identify authenticity if it bit them on the face.

Biden's tales are all about this. He's been there, Jack! He knows the score! He can relate to you because he's real like you are. You have suffered no tragedy and felt no joy that your 'ole pal Joe as not also experienced. He's just like you. He's just like everyone.

At best, the Democrats will cheat so hard that we'll get more ballots than voters nationwide which will enrage the people to act. The courts won't do anything, and the law enforcement has been captured. It has to be the people.

Yup. He won 2016 in Iowa. All of his opponents - left and right alike - showed up pretending to be normal in their flannel shirts and blue jeans like those damn hicks wear.

Trump showed up in a business suit and a helicopter. He wasn't going to pretend to be what he obviously wasn't. But unlike his competitors, Trump's authentic self may not be likable, but it isn't demonic. Most people in Washington can not - ever, for any reason - show their authentic selves. If they did, people would see the demons within and might be duty-bound to fight them.

Not just those formerly tagged as Deplorable but slowly - often quietly as not worthy of MSM - Veterans, professors, lawyers, doctors, clinical psychologists, rabbis, ministers...

When I'm so occupied with & concerned about what's happening in my little world, it's sometimes so difficult to care about the much larger world, especially politics & the next BS presidential election cycle. Wait...Is it planned?!

Today in history, 1939, Germany invaded Poland.

Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) was a prominent Lutheran pastor in Germany. In the 1920s and early 1930s, he sympathized with many Nazi ideas and supported radically right-wing political movements. But after Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933, Niemöller became an outspoken critic of Hitler’s interference in the Protestant Church. He spent the last eight years of Nazi rule, from 1937 to 1945, in Nazi prisons and concentration camps. Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for his postwar statement, which begins “First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out…” US Holocaust Memorial Museum

424 The Biden Department of Justice successfully swayed a jury on Tuesday to convict five pro-life activists for demonstrating at a controversial abortion clinic, which the DOJ argued violated the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, also known as the FACE Act.
Conservatives quickly expressed outrage over the case, especially since the activists — Lauren Handy, 28, John Hinshaw, 67, Heather Idoni, 61, William Goodman, 52, and Herb Geraghty, 25, — face 11 years behind bars and were thrown in jail to await their sentences. The activists also each face a $350,000 fine.

DeSantis is telegraphing (probably unknowingly) that the Left can veto our nominee with show trials and kangaroo courts, and the GOP will go along with it by presenting an alternate candidate. DeSantis and his supporters now carry the same Mark as the Vichy French who collaborated with Nazi occupiers.

You're smarter than me, you're more experienced than me, so i ask: if we allow the left to veto are nominee, why wouldn't they veto every effective Republican we submit for their approval?
