Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | The Morning Report — 8/13/24![]() When the new administration was looking for an attorney general, Ben Crump, the ultimate BLM lawyer who represented the families of George Floyd, Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin and nearly every BLM case, recommended Tony West. Al Sharpton also mentioned West. West, Crump argued, had been the third-highest ranking official in the Obama DOJ, “led various efforts to reduce racial bias, improve procedural fairness, strengthen the relationship between communities of color and law enforcement, and hold police departments accountable.” Or as the New York Times put it, West “launched an investigation into the 2014 shooting death in Ferguson, Mo., of an unarmed 18-year-old black man, Michael Brown, by a white police officer”. Michael Brown had assaulted a store clerk and then the police officer who shot him in self-defense, but West proved to be a crucial link in the chain that unleashed BLM on America. The ‘Ferguson Effect’ and the lies around the shooting of Michael Brown would help cripple policing and lead to race riots and then a crime wave spilling across the nation’s cities. West had helped start the fire that burned down the country and killed thousands of Americans. Crump however pointed out that West had another major asset besides the Ferguson Effect, he was also “the brother-in-law of Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.” While Biden’s inner circle proved wise enough not to bring in Kamala’s family into the cabinet, West wasted no time rushing in to consolidate Kamala’s position during the Biden palace coup. The New York Times described West as her “secret weapon” who, coincidentally, was in Kamala’s residence when Biden ‘dropped out’ and ‘worked the phones’ helping “her reach out to would-be supporters” and “his own network of donors and business contacts”. Since Kamala was in D.C. and West works for Uber in San Francisco (but also has a home on Martha’s Vineyard), thousands of miles away, he might not have just dropped by for a visit. And West indeed worked fast.If you thought Eric Holder was bad, and Merrick Garland the second coming of Lavrenty Beria, Ho-Lee-Fook, this fiend is raw nightmare fuel. And this is how Tampon Timmy Walz viewed the George Floyd riots: Gov. Tim Walz, now the presumptive Democratic VP candidate, blamed the lack of DEI for the George Floyd riots in May 2020. (We searched forever to find the full transcript and video! I want to give you guys the whole thing.) Walz starts his May 31, 2020, press conference by bashing the fact that society hasn’t made DEI a priority:A society that does not put equity and inclusion at the center of it is certainly going to eventually come to the places where we are at. This is a moment of inflection. It is a moment of real change. It is a moment that those fold who are out there demanding this are not going to take a commission or a report. They are going to want fundamental change. And that is what I think, that’s one of the exciting things in the midst of all this. You can feel a sense of optimism coming back. Why not blame the rioters? It’s always someone else’s fault. It’s more proof that we’ll see more DEI/Critical Race Theory intertwined in politics if Harris-Walz win in November.And lest we forget, as a Minneapolis police station was under assault, Walz told the cops who were on the verge of being roasted alive to surrender the station to the thugs. WIth maniacs like this in charge of America, our enemies are wasting their money on nuclear arsenals. Not that we're going to rearm and revamp our military any time soon anyway, not if Harris is Walz'd into office. Have a great day, and today is an election day in a number of states. So do your civic duty, and or kvetch about my cognitive dissonance.

From 1993 to 1994, Tony West served in the Clinton Justice Department as a special assistant to Deputy Attorney General Philip Heymann; West was responsible for the development of national crime policy, particularly the 1994 Omnibus Crime Bill.

Secret Service Failed To Flush Out Assassin For Trump, But BROKE Into Building To Use Bathroom For Harris Event
I loved that story as soon as I heard it because for those who worship government and sniff fed agent jock straps, this had to be one of those moments to hear the rationalization for how somehow these are simply good Ham & Eggers. Secret Service didn't fail to flush out assassin, the Secret Service failed to assassinate Trump. Likewise, the opportunity to stomp all over We The People is just another day ending in 'Y'. This is what happens when citizens voluntarily surrender themselves and their neighbors to the royalty and demand to be serfs. Israel demanded slavery upon themselves when they demanded that Samuel give them a king. Importing slavery minded people from around the globe will do the same.

It's not a restroom, there's no bed or divan, no recliner, not even a chair usually. It's not even a bathroom. It's a toilet, okay? In homes? There we do have bathrooms with showers and/or baths. There are a myriad of other terms for toilet, from lighthearted loo to crude bog. If we have reached the point that we can say penis and vulva aloud in public with no one blushing then we can say toilet/loo/bog/shitter/pisser/crapper/etc. Rant over.

Faith is not a plan.
A plan, for battle or for correcting an error or for building a dam, requires faith as an ingredient in a complicated series of decisions. Decisions whose summations are used by adult minds to construct solutions to obstacles. Faith in many things; a loving God, the salvation of our wretched souls through Jesus Christ, the correctness of mathematics and engineering, the loyalty and accuracy of those assisting the effort. But faith that Our Heavenly Father will snatch us from a snare is misplaced. It is our duty to prevent entrapment, then if that is not possible, to rescue ourselves. Someone took offense to my remarks on that subject Monday of this week, a person clearly without mature reasoning faculties, who asked "Is calling everybody weak-sister pussies a plan?" Possibly the start of one, yes. Posted by: Clear-Eyed Killer at August 13, 2024 06:54 AM (5mIZs) 42

Would God bail us out, only to see us return to our old habits?
Before Thine eyes, O Lord, we bring our sins and we compare them with the stripes we have received. If we examine the evil we have wrought, what we suffer is little, what we deserve is great. What we have committed is very grievous, what we have suffered is very slight. We feel the punishment of sin, yet withdraw not from the obstinacy of sinning. Under Thy lash our inconstancy is visited, but our sinfulness is not changed. Our suffering soul is tormented, but our neck is not bent. Our life groans under sorrow, yet amends not in deed. If Thou spare us, we correct not our ways: if Thou punish, we cannot endure it. In time of correction we confess our wrongdoing: after Thy visitation we forget that we have wept. If Thou stretchest forth Thy hand, we promise amendment; if Thou withholdest the sword, we keep not our promise. If Thou strikest, we cry out for mercy: if Thou sparest, we again provoke Thee to strike. - St. Augustine Posted by: Hadrian the Seventh at August 13, 2024 06:58 AM (1Nxff) 52

This is the spiritual crisis that Evangelicals get wrapped up in.

He cited Rowan Atkinson's statement from 2012 about free speech. Haven't heard much from him lately. The few stars he cites as fighting either talk for a living , Rogan or Maher or don't have a big enough career to care , ie Rob Schneider. God bless them though.

Only 23 percent of those surveyed believed that journalists were acting in the public’s best interests. The Associated Press said the results “showed a depth of distrust and bad feeling that go beyond the foundations and processes of journalism.”

Britain’s Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, spoke with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian for 30 minutes as part of de-escalation efforts to ease tensions in the Middle East, Sky News reported on Monday.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz appealed to Pezeshkian to do everything possible to prevent a further military escalation in the Middle East in a phone call on Monday, according to a German government spokesperson. ==== Translation: your regime is teetering and we have already done all we can to save you.

If an evangelical is one who believes we are to spread the gospel, then that is me. The view you speak of, on the timing of the rapture in relation to the 70th week of Daniel (pre-trib), is a false teaching. Mentioning that and posting a link to a vid on the same me be what "lost" me longtime, favorite poster here. So be it. That my brothers and sisters know they will go through the time of great tribulation until it is cut short by His return is more important. Posted by: TeeJ at August 13, 2024 07:20 AM (aCV/b) 79

That would be the duty of all believers. Evangelicals, broadly speaking, reject orthodox soteriology, ecclesiology and eschatology and have a DIY form that allows for baptizing pets, throwing "Jesus Parties", embracing pagan numerology, while rejecting key doctrines like the Fall, spirituality (ecstasy is confused as "filled with the spirit"), sanctification, and atonement.

The view you speak of, on the timing of the rapture in relation to the 70th week of Daniel (pre-trib), is a false teaching.
That would be Pre-Trib Dispensationalism which is uniquely American in its embrace. Most of the Christian world outside of the US tends to be post millennial or various flavors of amillennial. I'm of the camp "If I knew the Lord were to return tomorrow, I would still plant a tree today". Occupy until He comes, the eschatology should not have people maxxing out their credit cards and sitting on a mountain top to be the first to be Raptured because someone read the entrails or scat of a bovine and based on which way the maggots were moving comes up with the near-by date of the LORD's return. Sadly, a lot of Evangelical "clergy" love to have personal eschatological gnosticism.

I Think it's Happening; The Collapse. This disastrous Musk interview will accelerate things, I think it’s an inflection point. The media can’t ignore it any longer. USA Today is publishing scathing ridicule of Trump. Once the story becomes Trumps fitness, and he’s subjected to incessant ridicule, it’s over for him.
He's been nominated, it's not that easy. Besides, don't you think the GQP should carry that to term? No late term abortions for them! The press will back him up. They're constantly editing everything he says to make him look presidential. They refuse to stop doing it. EXACTLY !!! The M$M is 100% the main reason Benedict Donald is even being talked about. Anyone else in any other G20 nation would've been talked about like they were nuts and thrown out of the race. GQP has an Epstein problem and will have to do this again in 2028 Some will try, but when you've lost USA Today, and they are mocking you openly... Freepers: The greatest tech mind and the greatest political blah blah... talking for 2 hours. This will change things Oddly, despite multiple threads discussing the interview, I haven't seen any quotes?

- "...I would still plant a tree today."
In a manner of speaking, that is how pretty much all of my brothers and sisters, that I know, live. They work, even if retired, in some form - raise families if of that age - and such. And those views that you mentioned such as preterism, amillennialism, postmillennialism and the like didn't come along until a certain Alexandrian started up with his allegorizing of scripture. I hold to historic dispensationalism. Two ages. This current evil age and the Kingdom Age to come. Also that the church will undergo persecution under the reign of the anti-christ until it is cut short by our Lord's return. Both of these views are gaining traction. Slowly to be sure but, as more and more stop just taking the word of the "celebrity preachers" and dig into God's Word for themselves, and just take it for what it says...

"Silly, rolling? Unserious? Unknowing?"
As a Baptist of the sort that can qualify as evangelical, I can believe and detest all of those behaviors he lists. There are some pretty goofy people running churches and Bible colleges right now and it's a war. Mixing legitimate doctrinal debate with stupid and ignorant, self indulgent behavior is disingenuous. And whether Orthodox or Catholic or ecumenical, I'm pretty sure we can find some pretty serious faults in their behavior or doctrines both past and current.

> When if ever have damages been awarded for the misconduct of ham n eggers?
-------- On that note; Trump is suing the DoJ over the Mar-a-Lago raid. He's calling it "politically motivated." It was. Doesn't mean he'll win either. It is, after all, the DoJ we're talking about. Also... Tulsi Gabbard let it fly that she's been under the watchful eyes of the Marshal's Service as a "domestic terror risk." She's a bit torques off about that too. So, I guess my point is that while the DoJ probably won't suffer as there are some pretty high profile people that the junta has identified as being problematic. Those two being only the ones who've come out publicly. I'd like to see someone like Miss Lindsey or maybe Hannity's response to being on a terror watch list. Because I'm certain "nothing will happen" until the movers and shakers in the media and political classes are "put on a proverbial list" as well.

Opera would be very cool if it wasn't for all the singing. Lou Reed was an interesting musician. A lot of his lyrics are about New York City, and drugs, and his pov on life. In the movie 'Trainspotting' there is one of his songs, "Perfect Day" which is about "weekenders" which is apparently some class of drug addicts which only do drugs on weekends. The movie is about the exploits of heroin addicts, mainly to a bad end. Anyway, that's the backstory. Yesterday I came across a YouTube video where he is performing the song... with Luciano Pavarotti. I thought I was tripping. It's real... but not so great.

Walz starts his May 31, 2020, press conference by bashing the fact that society hasn’t made DEI a priority:A society that does not put equity and inclusion at the center of it is certainly going to eventually come to the places where we are at. This is a moment of inflection. It is a moment of real change. It is a moment that those fold who are out there demanding this are not going to take a commission or a report.
++++ Well, he wasn't wrong about being at an inflection point. The Floyd riots were the excuse used by Corporate America to go hard at wokeness in all dimensions. They had been building up to it for years, of course, but it was the Floyd riots that emboldened them to do it in public and in a huge way and loose the commissars on their employee populations.

As the Electoral College balances rural and urban nationally we need a system to balance the same within states.
-------- "We" had one. The Supreme Court decided that was unconstitutional. About 1970. "One man one vote". That's why in some states like say, Washington or Oregon the eastern half wants to throw their lot in with Idaho. Leftist fvckery is sometimes slow but grinds exceedingly fine.

It is still worth it - personally - to achieve. Working harder to earn more while keeping one's head down and ignoring the despotism while grumbling about the tax burden still means that the individual person can do better for himself and his family. Working harder and making more does not result in a diminution of status or wealth. Growth gets more marginal each time, but the juice is still worth the squeeze. That's the game, and the balancing act for the despots. It requires two things. First is that one: keep the juice worth the squeeze. The second is: "make sure there's enough squeeze for enough people to keep the wheels on." It's the second that's failing, not the first.

Ever since they kicked out the Colonel, KFC has never quite been able to figure out what they're selling and who to market to.

I've seen this "2033" thing before. Don't even bother to look at it. As far as the thief in the night passage... Even a halfway thoughtful reading of the passage early in 1Thess 5, which is a continuation of Paul's teaching on the rapture in chap 4, shows that He will return as a thief to the unsaved. It should not come as a thief to those who are Christ's because we have been given the signs to look for. Now I must be off to text a good morning to the widow and see what I can do. 82yoa, heart valve replacement in 21, hip replacements in 22 and 23,,, and still gets out and picks up sticks, pulls weeds and looks after others.

Most of this stuff is the Dems giving in to their radical base followed by facing the reality of their decisions. I don't think New York City or Hochul are there.

Musk agreed. “From government overspending, and just not spending taxpayer money effectively,“ including having “so many departments, you can't even name them all.” He later called inflation “a form of taxation.”
Undoubtedly, it would be a great victory if Trump would, like Milei, cut whole government departments (Department of Education and the FBI, for instance), gutting overbloated bureaucracy and saving taxpayers money at the same time. ========================= "Cut whole departments"..."You can't even name them all"....

I think Musk via his X platform makes most of the MSM irrelevant. That sort of pisses them off to no end.
Good. Posted by: Martini Farmer at August 13, 2024 08:57 AM (Q4IgG) ++++ It's why the crackdown on social networks came so hot and fast during 2016 and especially after Trump stormed in. If it weren't for the social networks big and small, Trump probably would never have won. He knew it, and so did the deep state. Trump even said something along the lines of, "having Facebook is better than owning a newspaper." Social networks were not really open for a long time, but the conversion into total censorship networks happened around that election and afterward. Too dangerous. They're a useful intelligence gathering and population control tool, but it is imperative that dissenters *not* get the same access. It's why Musk buying Twitter was a major blow and why they will probably kill him for it. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at August 13, 2024 09:02 AM (HnUIn) 407

Fugelsang: In fairness, the American people have already elected a woman president. But in 2016, the dead slaveowners who’d demanded an electoral college had more power than the American people.
As a Canadian, looking at your country, I sometimes find myself imagining just how progressive and rich and happy a people you'd be if you'd had a voting system based more on the popular vote. I watch your Republican admins splurge and spend on illegal invasions and tax cuts to the wealthy causing recessions. Then watch Democratic Presidents come in and have to spend all their budgets on just fixing the mistakes of their R predecessors. No money to implement their more progressive policy promises. ie. maybe a cross country high speed rail system as one example So Democrats don't show up next time, and R's use their "failures" against them. R's get re-elected, and then drain the treasury again for the next Democrat to fix. Add the increasing presence and domination of RW media to spread misinformation. To the point that a majority of Americans STILL think R's are better with handling the economy than Democrats. Baffling.

Someone looks stupid here and it's not Musk
Posted by: It's me donna at August 13, 2024 09:13 AM (IyPmt) ++++ When Musk bought Twitter and said he would open it up a bit, I said that they would kill Twitter. I got that one wrong. They tried to kill Twitter (are still trying to kill Twitter), but failed to do so at least so far. Even Meta's new platform - "Threads," which is under the Instagram umbrella - has languished when it was spun up fast to provide a Twitter alternative for when the former was delegitimized by the Party. It has been remarkably resilient. They've been trying to disregard Twitter, call it out as bad, disparage it, etc. but nothing has stuck so far. Every error message is "evidence of X on brink of failure" the framing is always how disastrous X is now, etc. - but it doesn't match reality. It parallels, in a way, the coverage of the Russia/Ukraine war. Russia is always inches from defeat, yet keeps not being defeated. It's why eventually, they'll pivot and go after Musk himself. If it weren't for SpaceX, he might already be dead. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at August 13, 2024 09:18 AM (HnUIn) 469

------------ Repetition is one of the keys to successful propaganda.

Through deception, by what I would characterize as unscrupulous people, the notion that 100 percent "suffrage" or voting is always an unalloyed Good Thing needs to be laid to rest. To believe it, one has to think that while people tend to be rather thick and ordinary or stupid on average, when they all get together somehow they will choose the best leader?

Having wearied of the struggle to be himself, he has created his own boredom out of his own affluence, his own impotence out of his own erotomania, his own vulnerability out of his own strength; himself blowing the trumpet that brings down the walls of his own city, and, in a process of auto-genocide, convinced himself that he is too numerous, thus laboring accordingly with pill, scalpel and syringe to make himself fewer so as to be easier prey for his enemies, until at last, having educated himself into imbecility, polluted and drugged himself into stupefaction, he keels over; a weary, battered old brontosaurus and becomes extinct."

The top 1 percent’s income share rose from 22.2 percent in 2020 to 26.3 percent in 2021 and its share of federal income taxes paid rose from 42.3 percent to 45.8 percent. Posted by: rhennigantx at August 13, 2024 09:32 AM (gbOdA) 542
I go to Canada frequently. While not poor, it is definitely poorER than the US. It feels less wealthy. Vancouver and Seattle are 2 hrs apart but a world of difference between them.

It’s not an interview when the person asking the questions has endorsed you and is a donor to your campaign ... Oh, that's rich. Is it an interview when you're sitting on air receiving follow-up questions for your guest from Valerie Jarrett sitting in the WH? Is it an interview when then DNC head DWS can contact your t.v. producer and demand you stop it NOW, while it's in progress? Is it an interview when your interviewee decides what will be asked, and what will NOT be mentioned?

The best part about the Musk and Trump chat is folks can listen to the replay and I think Elon is providing a transcript as well. The media can lie all they want about how bad it was but all folks have to do is listen and they can judge for themselves.

If West is out of Uber permanently, it'll be time for the Teamsters to move to unionize all of Lyft, Uber, etc. It's been the idea for years but had to be given a pause for appearances. Beware that Walz, like the husk, has a thousand folksy background stories all just slightly tweaked from the former as he got deeper into politics. NPR, Politics, 'What to know about Minnesota first lady Gwen Walz' August 8, 2024 In part, "She told MPR News that the two of them had collaborated closely during the 12 years that the then-congressman was working largely out of D.C., though she said she often operated behind the scenes. She said they were thrilled to be able to work out of the same space again, more or less." So, more or less, the Brain. Kamala likes? Does it matter 'cause she's getting marching orders, too.

#2 - NPR, The Economic Mind of Tim Walz, By Greg Rosalsky, Published August 13, 2024
In part, "As governor, Walz prioritized increasing the economic security of kids. A couple years back in the Planet Money newsletter, we highlighted how America’s welfare system is pretty generous for the elderly but relatively stingy for kids." Humm. "Working families." "According to (his) needs" policies. IDK but in my PA township/region, school taxes are awful & elderly women are most impoverished. ---- WSJ, Aug. 6, 2024, A Minnesotan Sizes Up Tim Walz During his tenure, student achievement has slipped, crime has surged, and state residents have fled.
