"Who Did You Vote For?"

Politico For Kidz, aka Axios, is psyched about Biden's efforts to boost Hispanic support.

President Biden will use a stop at a Mexican restaurant in Phoenix today

LOL.

to announce a national program to reach Latino voters -- "Latinos con Biden-Harris" -- as his campaign rushes to reverse gains that former President Trump appears to be making with Hispanic voters.

Wow that's some next-level Spanglish right there. Some real poll con arroz sh*t.

It sounds woke to me. Like he didn't want to say "Latinxes para (for) Biden" because that would mean they're like his slaves or employees or something.



Why it matters: Four years ago, Biden won Latino voters 2-to-1 over former President Trump, according to exit polls. But recent polls indicate that Democrats' longtime advantage with Latinos -- the fast-growing segment of the U.S. population -- is diminishing.


...
The campaign also is targeting Black voters with new television ads -- running in swing states and streaming over some of the NCAA basketball tournament's games -- that warn Trump's return would be a "disaster" for Black Americans.

How racist.

But making assumptions about people's habits and preferences based on their race is okay, as long as you're (D)elicate about it.

...

What we're watching: Democrats tend to dismiss polling that indicates their margins with Blacks and Hispanics are collapsing by double digits, with some pointing to the sample sizes of such polls being too small.

But Nate Silver -- founder of FiveThirtyEight who now writes at substack -- takes a different view.

Drawing from aggregated data from Split Ticket, Silver notes that "Biden is now only winning Hispanics by 7 percentage points -- down from 24 points in 2020 -- and Black voters by 'only' 55 points, as compared with 83 points in 2020."

Hispanics -- government name, Latinxes -- are cool to Biden's pandering, because they recognize it as pandering.

Hispanic residents of border states are rejecting President Biden's efforts to shore up support in the 2024 election.

Three Arizona voters joined "Fox & Friends First" on Wednesday to share their discontent with the president's Latinos con Biden-Harris campaign pitch in Phoenix.

"Biden coming to Arizona is just a Band-Aid on a great, big open wound," Monet Flores-Bacs, 25, told co-host Todd Piro. "Despite what President Biden might want us to believe, the Latino community in Arizona is really hurting due to inflation."

Meanwhile, Biden isn't doing much better with liberal urban blacks.

Chicago just voted down a special levy to be imposed on high-value property. Proceeds from the unjust taxation would go to... illegal aliens.

Voters in Chicago have voted against a proposed tax increase that many believe was a backdoor effort to raise money in order to support the city's growing migrant crisis.

During Tuesday's primary election, voters were asked whether they would support increasing levies on high-valued real estate sales to address the problem of homelessness.

The vote appears to have failed by a margin of 54 to 46 percent.

The city's far-left Democratic Mayor, Brandon Johnson, had claimed that the money would be used to tackle the issue of homelessness. However, opponents pointed out that the Chicago City Council maintained the right to spend the money any way it chooses and it would inevitably be used to prop up the tens of thousands of migrants who have arrived in the city.

Via Twitchy, a black woman in Chicago lists all the local funds being commandeered for use by "the migrants." She doesn't like it at all.

One of the black men on the panel -- I'm not sure what kind of panel this is -- asks, "Who did you vote for?"

Everyone laughs, because everyone knows where this is heading.

I imagine that panel was convened to discuss this ballot initiative.

Instead of building businesses or going to college or trade schools, people decided that taking advantage of welfare systems was their path to living in America.

It didn't require much from the individual, but it was relying on the largess of others rather than anything one could build themselves. Largess ends. It always does.

Plumbing, though. It goes on forever.

Ace, I recall a distinction in Spanish grammar between "para" and "por." Not sure of the details now, it's been a while, but there were certain well-defined cases where you used "por" and others for "para."

I'm not saying you used the wrong one; you probably did. What I'm amused by is the notion that F. Joe's team of self-styled geniuses could have picked the wrong one, and would therefore be turning Latino voters off at the very start.

Any bunch of "elites" who can somehow mangle "Yes we can" ("Si [with the accent], podemos!") into "Si say pwadyay" is capable of anything.

It's interesting how squatting is suddenly exploding in blue areas.

Portland's county had a proposal on the ballot to provide "free" legal representation to tenants and squatters fighting eviction, which amazingly lost in a landslide.

I found out yesterday that my wealthy Portland suburb has had its first squatting case. Fortunately, since we still have a functional police force and court system, that was disposed of quickly.

I don't have much sympathy either, because what Biden has done to those black communities was spelled out clearly when he was running for president. He said he wanted to flood the country with as many illegals (excuse me, "migrants") as he possibly could. And that's what he did. Now they're feeling the consequences when they should've thought long and hard about it before voting for that retard.

However, this just may be the straw that breaks the camel's back in getting some black people to wake the hell up to what the Democrats have really done to them.

"por" usually means "by" in spanish, para means "for."

The distinction you're talking about I think has to do with giving a reason why an action is done. I think you use "para" when you say I'm doing this thing on behalf of this person, but you use "por" to say I'm doing this thing for this motive/to accomplish this goal.

86 they used "con," with.

"por" usually means "by" in spanish, para means "for."

The distinction you're talking about I think has to do with giving a reason why an action is done. I think you use "para" when you say I'm doing this thing on behalf of this person, but you use "por" to say I'm doing this thing for this motive/to accomplish this goal.

Or vice versa.

Yeah, it's been a long time since my Spanish classes. F. Joe & Co. used "con," but could easily have used one of the other pair. And I would not be surprised if they got it hilariously wrong.

125 Biden just needs to say he’s for reparations to maintain the black vote. Of course that will then require him to also say he’s for amnesty for all Latin immigrants, which then would require him to state his support for Muslims to be considered a minority for affirmative action and support for a two state solution. It will then dawn on him he has to get Schumer to campaign for him saying Trump wants to put Jews in concentration camps again to keep the Jewish vote.

137 Any media outlet that reports ANY immigration story and does NOT first point out that, Retrumplicans blocked their own immigration bill so that they can exploit racism and fascism, is guilty of journalistic malpractice. I would also argue that such media are enabling and supporting racism and fascism.

Well they ARE Republican owned so it's not surprising. people who speak from a position of privilege and comfort say the darnedest things!

They also need to tell the truth about the impact of immigration. They are feeding into the fear narrative. When the reality is that there is a net benefit. Even in Texas as Maria Hinijosa pointed out with data. Talk about the immigrants feeding America, frankly doing work that many Americans don’t want.

Seen on FB yesterday--- I'm still waiting for some American to tell me that they lost their fruit picking job to an immigrant.

Whenever a conservative upstart failed the "electable" test and won a primary, the RNC and other organs would cut them off to some degree. There would be coordinated messaging from establishment figures about how someone like Moreno was just the worst.

This morning RCP had Biden under 40% with a new poll of Adults that had him at 37/58. Just looked now and that poll, new this morning is gone, and now the only polls are RVs and LVs and he is back a t 40%.

158 I think Trump would be well served to put a minority on the ticket, if you can keep the Dems to only like 85% of the black vote, you've won the election.

But the flip side though is, my experience has shown that Hispanics can be pretty racist against black people.

I wonder just from a demographic view if throwing your lot in with Hispanics is the better bet. That woman going off on migrants, she's no conservative and never will be. She's just mad "her people" aren't getting as much of that free shit.

40% Candidate X
40% candidate Y
20% undecided.

So then when the undecideds break, it makes the polling looks way off, but it's not.

That's why I always get nervous when anyone touts a poll and no one is near 50% support. It really can go either way.

235 They also need to tell the truth about the impact of immigration. They are feeding into the fear narrative. When the reality is that there is a net benefit.

Back in the day the argument was that these invaders would take low paying jobs allowing Americans to work at higher paying jobs.

But...they also brought in H1Bs to make it so there were fewer of those higher paying jobs and just starting handing gobs of welfare money to the invaders. This led to a bunch of Americans that used to work scamming SSDI

So...high skill workers salaries are down.
Low skill workers salaries are down.
Taxes are up
Crime is up
And because of bidenflation food and all other bills are way up...even the lettuce the government swore would be cheap if we just brought in migrants to pick it

According to neighbors, the unruly squatters have been seen and heard carrying out home renovations inside the Queens property.

I'm calling it, and I rarely do: op. At least of a sort. These guys were coached and carefully instructed about what to do. I don't know about NYC, but adverse possession law usually requires occupancy of and improvements to the property. They're occupying, and they're making improvements. It's rare to expend resources on improvements within the first month of occupancy (unless it's something you knew about going in - which they didn't, because they're squatters) or if you're a tenant, much less both.

If they're making improvements, they were coached to do so and given instructions. This is a setup, likely a test case to push the margins on "squatters rights" and adverse possession.

during the colonial period those people who were born in the Spanish colonies, even if both parents were Spanish, were generally excluded from high colonial posts. One of the problems Bolivar and San Martin faced was that even though they were of petty noble stock, and they had been educated in Spain as well as serving in the Spanish army, they also were considered "criollos" and were excluded from higher position.

Leftists think that because NBC is owned by a corporation it must be right wing. Yes they really are that stupid.


Yes that's the argument I've seen endlessly.

And it is comical.

I saw an analysis that showed the Bezos Post stopped printing negative articles about Amazon/Bezos after he bought them...which isn't a surprise. But in their world Bezos is right wing because he's rich even though he's one of the most important Dem money men in the world (and likely part of the Junta that actually runs the Biden admin)

But then they use that statistic to imply illegal aliens commit fewer crimes than Americans. Which is 1000% bullshit.
Posted by: Montec at March 20, 2024 01:47 PM (4+s9S)

Right. Legal immigrants don't want to lose their greencards, much like legal carry folk are generally much more law-abiding on average.
Posted by: Red Turban Someguy - The Republic is already dead! at March 20, 2024 01:52 PM (eYoxG)
_______

Plus, part of the vetting process for legal immigration is designed to weed out criminals or those likely to become criminals. So legal immigrants are generally more law-abiding than normal just as a matter of selection. El Chapo would never get into the USA legally. But he could just walk across the boarder into TX.

411 The distinction between "por" and "para" must be the kind of thing that comes easily only to native, from-birth speakers of Spanish. At least if they have a little education. They would make the correct choice without thinking much about it.

As, for example, English speakers make a distinction between "hanged" and "hung." In present tense, you "hang" a picture or a man. In past tense, though, you "hung" the picture, but you "hanged" the murderer.

420 I'm calling it, and I rarely do: op. At least of a sort. These guys were coached and carefully instructed about what to do. I don't know about NYC, but adverse possession law usually requires occupancy of and improvements to the property. They're occupying, and they're making improvements. It's rare to expend resources on improvements within the first month of occupancy (unless it's something you knew about going in - which they didn't, because they're squatters) or if you're a tenant, much less both.

If they're making improvements, they were coached to do so and given instructions. This is a setup, likely a test case to push the margins on "squatters rights" and adverse possession.

Of course, cutting the weight also makes the car less safe in a head-on collision with a heavier vehicle (also physics: conservation of energy, conservation of momentum), to anyone in a smaller car will feel a greater "acceleration" upon impact...

The law says "X" and they do "Y". They know the Congress will not punish them because of omnibus budgeting, and Republicans who whine, "we can't shut down the government?", so the junta acts with impunity to break the law, repeatedly.

The Biden junta is nothing more than a massive criminal conspiracy.

I try not to do the latter as long as it doesn't distort my sentence. But there's also the rule that a modifier should be placed as close as possible to its noun, or in this case, verb. "To boldly go . . ." just sounds better than "Boldly to go" (although that's not bad) or "to go boldly."

It's partly true. In California many non-citizens apprehended for looting up-scale houses are Chileans. A while back the State Department /spit/ added Chile to the No Visa Required to Enter US for Tourism list. So any wanna-be thief and some of his pals in Chile who want to rob up-scale homes can come to the US for 60 days, free as a bird, by claiming they are tourists.

If they're making improvements, they were coached to do so and given instructions. This is a setup, likely a test case to push the margins on "squatters rights" and adverse possession.

I don't think it's any big plan. I think the squatters know they can live rent-free in a nice house for probably a year or more while the eviction proceeding drags through the courts. In fact, the squatters are probably making money by charging other "tenants" for rent during the time. Or for prostitution. You see the girl at the door in that pic? I was getting whore vibes. The "improvements" were probably to facilitate extra separate spaces.

adverse possession is a claim that the property was abandoned, and that the squatter was actually improving the property while living there. Happens from time to time around here.

It was a tradition from things my grandfather said, in Scotland, to "walk the boundaries" with your neighbors regularly to verify where the property lines were, grandpa used to say that his mom hated liquor in the house so his dad would "walk the boundaries" with male guests by going to the out-building for a drink

481 Example:

I called my best friend (known him since freshman year of college, so... 31 years?) a few weeks ago. Had not spoken to him in a few months.

So we talked politics and movies a bit, then I remembered:

'What's your daughter's name?' (She'd be maybe 4-5 now.)

'Alice. Why?'

'Oh, well *embarrassed* I've been trying to make a concerted effort to mention people in the meeting with the Boss (God) at night and I realized 'Watch over (Best friend) & Wife, Nicholas (son) and... Mary? Sarah? You know who I mean.' does not work well.'

496 Yeah, the physics of the situation. You can only get so much efficiency out of a heat engine, so to get more MPG, you have to cut the weight. Of course, cutting the weight also makes the car less safe in a head-on collision with a heavier vehicle (also physics: conservation of energy, conservation of momentum), to anyone in a smaller car will feel a greater "acceleration" upon impact...
Posted by: jim (in Kalifornia) at March 20, 2024 02:01 PM (ynpvh)

Thing is, WWD is right, Cars are getting heavier, not lighter, for a given size. Most of the gains in fuel economy are the result of improved fuel management in the engine, allowing the heat engine to perform closer to its theoretical limit. Also we are seeing "cars" being largely replaced by various crossover SUV's, which are heavy. And electric cars can be up to double the weight of their gas-burning counterparts.
