Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Quick Hits![]() "My basic rule is, if you have supported school choice and you are otherwise relatively conservative, you're quite likely to get my support. If on the other hand, you voted against choice, the odds of getting my support are zero. And I am very likely to endorse your primary opponent. When I do so I don't do so gently. I cut TV ads and radio ads and I come in and we beat you," said Cruz. Earlier this month, 21 Republicans in the Texas House sided with Democrats in killing a school choice proposal. While some of those members have already announced their retirement, Cruz says he is prepared to replace them with more conservative members.Billionaire and former major donor to his alma mater Bill Ackerman says that the presidents of Harvard, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania must "resign in disgrace" over their defense of calls for genocide against Jews. Depending on the "context," you understand. The "context" being: Did a slightly brown person call for the genocide of a slightly lighter-skinned person? In that case, it's an acceptable call for "decolonization.""I'm going to do everything I can to beat those 21 Republicans," he added. Don't click on that link; it's a CNN post, which immediately pulls a Jayapal and says "Buh Elon Musk..." Karine Jean-Pierre continually violates the Hatch Act, which forbids paid government personnel from making political appeals, and no one does anything about it. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre made history on Friday, becoming the first Biden administration official to rack up multiple Hatch Act violations.She just can't stop making history. ... The White House did not return a request for comment. I mentioned this yesterday, but this clip resurfaced by the DeSantis campaign is getting new attention, and will probably be a topic of debate tonight. If the leftwing moderators allow discussion of it, of course. Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley said in an interview that she believes that the law should "stay out of" irreversible, experimental so-called "gender-affirming" care for children and that parents "should handle it." A clip of her remarks in the interview with CBS Mornings began circulating on X, formerly known as Twitter, this week. In the clip, Tony Dokoupil asked Haley: "What care should be on the table when a 12-year-old child in this country assigned female at birth says, 'Actually, I feel more comfortable living as a boy.' And "what should the law allow the response to be?" "I think the law should stay out of it and parents should handle it," Haley responded. In the full interview, Haley added: "This is a job for the parents to handle. And then, if that child becomes 18, if they want to make more of a permanent change, they can do that. But I think, up until then, we see with our teenage kids, they go through a lot during puberty. They go through a lot of confusion. They go through a lot of anxiety. They go through a lot of pressures. We should support them the whole way through, but we don't need to go in and force something in schools. We don't need schools sitting there hiding from the parents what gender pronoun they're using. We don't need to have those conversations in schools. Those are conversations that should be had at home."
Nikki Haley responded with lies: On Wednesday, Haley's campaign sent Townhall the following statement from Nachama Soloveichik, Haley's communications director: "With his poll numbers plummeting and his campaign imploding, Ron DeSantis is desperately throwing lies at the wall, hoping something will stick. Spoiler alert: It won't. Nikki Haley has long said she opposes gender-changing surgeries for minors. Bald-faced lies won't save DeSantis."Yes, we can see in the quote: Nikki Haley supports "reversible" procedures like hormone blockers (which are not actually reversible) for those between 12 and 18 and, for those 18 or older, a "permanent change:" Surgery, of course. It's not a "lie" to say she supports transgender procedures for kids. She just seems to be implying that she wouldn't bless surgery for 12 year olds. Just hormone blockers and "social transitioning." She'll probably be Trump's VP. Washington Post staffers threaten to walk out of work tomorrow. "I covered an insurrection!" one Twitter-Warrior bravely proclaims.
Note that the establishment media does not show the faces of antifa "protesters," just as antifa demands they don't. But they're brave warriors of truth. They covered an "insurrection!" Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Good 🔥 Loftis blasted Disney during the announcement for their “far-left activism” saying they should never participate in boycotts that silence “those with less power and money.” “Disney has abandoned its fiduciary responsibilities to its investors and customers by joining far-left activist in boycotting legal, taxpaying, employment-creating corporations to further Disney’s political agenda.” South Carolina has $105 million in Disney debt instruments that will mature and won’t be replaced.

Kyle Becker @kylenabecker Dec 4
BREAKING: Douglass Mackey's conviction for making a meme that mocked Hillary Clinton voters is closer to being vacated, as an appeals court has now granted his motion for bond ahead of an appeal. “The Second Circuit Court of Appeals just overruled the District Court in granting our motion for bond pending appeal. This ruling is huge because it means that the appeals court decided that my appeal presents "substantial" and "debatable" issues of law that, if resolved in my favor, will result in my conviction being vacated. The prosecution, on the other hand, argued that my appeal was frivolous and that this was a typical election crime case like any other in U.S. history. This is a very encouraging step towards vindication,” Mackey said on X. This would be a big victory for upholding First Amendment rights if his court battle is successful!

In any event, electoral politics in this Late Republic era are so debased and toxic, I'm almost at the point of saying "just wake me when the revolution starts".
Posted by: Paco at December 06, 2023 06:48 PM (njExo) I get the feeling that like Trump in a lot of cases he made poor choices in who would be running his campaign.

>>I listen to Trump's rally's because it's so pleasant, uplifting, to hear some who is not down in the mouth but defiantly positive.
That's the problem for the other candidates. Whether the supporters of other candidates want to admit it or not Trump is a unique political figure in US history. He came out of nowhere, largely mocked and ignored, and then proceeded to lay waste to a slew of professional Republican politicians and then did the same thing to the inevitable Hillary and along the way he built a movement. Not a took over the GOP mantle, built a new one. He got the most votes of any sitting president in history and none of those people have gone anywhere. And almost all of them will always believe Trump had his election stolen from him in 2020 and they want payback because their lives were way better under Trump in every way. And in Trump they see someone who is taking the shots the left want to give all of us and he never backs down. Nobody was going to beat him in 2024. It was over before it started.

Because " he is a bad guy who has done other bad things (so he must be guilty here), " has, until now, been understood as so highly prejudicial it must be excluded. But not for Trump. And the judge is going to allow it. Watch. All rules must be broken, all norms must be abandoned, all justice must be perverted.... to stop one man from being president.

ah, deatials : "California law says the governor must schedule a special election for a U.S. House seat between 126 to 140 days after it is vacated.
That means the seat would remain vacant until near Memorial Day, with a general election likely on May 20, 2024. First, California will conduct a nonpartisan blanket primary, in which the top two vote-getters, regardless of party, advance to the general election. The winner of the general election would be seated within days of victory. The small window ties the hands of Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA), who would prefer to schedule the election later to keep the reliably Republican seat — which Cook Political Report ranks R+14 — vacant as long as possible."

He got the most votes of any sitting president in history and none of those people have gone anywhere. And almost all of them will always believe Trump had his election stolen from him in 2020 and they want payback because their lives were way better under Trump in every way. And in Trump they see someone who is taking the shots the left want to give all of us and he never backs down.

Lack of some kind of "it factor" / star quality? Humans are dumb primates. Posted by: vmom --------- DeSantis faced a problem where his financial backers wanted him to attack and take out Trump but voters in the GOP mainly wanted to hear how he and Trump would differ on policy. So he by and large stayed silent on Trump and the 2020 election/lawfare/etc and concentrated on demonstrating policy through his command of the Fla legislature regarding transexuals, Disney, etc. probably because he was told to target evangelicals. He also splurged big money on buying cred from bloggers, Salem's properties, Shapiro, etc. and paying people like evangelist Van De Plast in Iowa. His team basically were replicating the Cruz 2016 campaign which is not surprising because many of them were with Cruz in 2016. DeSantis started having problems between his backers and primary voters though when he tried to stake out opinions on Ukraine, foreign trade, industrial policy, and so on which led to waffling probably due to irrecouncilable differences between what GOP voters want and and donors.

304 Trump's pick for VP will not be Musk or Tucker but he will be SOLID.
Posted by: Braenyard -------- Dunno, Trump has a gauntlet of Lawfare to run next year plus age, trying to run a campaign with all sorts of interference from the DOJ and a feckless GOP party. That is what the whale donors are betting on with Nikki and the GOP would gladly parachute her into the nomination if they can. That is why I want DeSantis to stay in and I think that is why he hangs around to at least from IA through NH. From what I understand, DeSantis is focusing on IA and its retail politics and NH but largely relying on momentum to go into South Carolina. Haven't heard squat about NV's caucus this year but that could also render a surprise win for DeSantis. DeSantis still has a path but it will be difficult and depend on a lot of circumstances beyond his and his backers control regarding what is happening to Trump and whether money can buy Nikki some love in the primaries (you might also get some mischief crossover voting from Dems in primaries this year if Biden stays on the ticket.)
