The Morning Report

The Morning Report — 8/19/24

Good morning kids. Well the Einsatz-groupies of the Democrat Party have kicked off the festivities early. And by festivities, I mean reminding those at the top of the ticket that unless more Jewish heads roll in Israel and here in the states, that it'll be their's that roll, figuratively speaking if not ultimately quite literally.

Fiery anti-Israel protests got underway Sunday on the eve of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, with demonstrators disrupting a delegate party and one warning, “Welcome to hell week.”
Protesters couldn’t wait to confront prominent Democrats over the war in Gaza as hundreds flooded the streets and vowed to “bring the war home,” according to footage across social media.
Demonstrations are expected to happen throughout the week as national Dems celebrate the nomination of Vice President Kamala Harris, 59, and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, 60.
At one point, protesters targeted a delegate party at Navy Pier where one rabble-rouser reached the stage, grabbed the microphone and accused the crowd of “funding a genocide,” according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
“The Harris-Biden administration keeps sending money to Israel,” the protester said before getting dragged off stage, according to a video posted by an anti-Israel group. “Free Palestine!”
Others rallied outside the event and reportedly warned of a “week of justice.”
One organizer, who only gave her name as Jinan, said disruptors were there to confront the Democratic Party over Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.
“Welcome to hell week,” she said, according to the Sun-Times.
“DNC go home,” demonstrators waving Palestinian flags chanted, according to a reporter for the Blaze. “Or we’re gonna bring the war home.”
Others that joined protests on Sunday also called for stronger abortion and LGBTG rights, according to reports.
“She’s not going to take a legitimate stance, so until we can have Kamala Harris actually come to the table and make a legitimate concession actually make a legitimate push to get the Arab and Muslim vote,” said protester Nael, according to ABC 7 Chicago.

Have these Muslims not considered that Kamala's lip service on Israel – pun fully intended – is just taqqiya in action so she can yet retain financial and political support from the self-gassing Jews in name only? And all the others protesting for abortion and the alphabet soup of perversion can all go to Tehran for their free rooftop flying lesson.

Meanwhile, there's this little item, but I don't necessarily think it means the taqqiya is on the other foot:

Vice President Kamala Harris has spent the last 6 months pandering to Hamas supporters and there’s no sign that she’s about to stop. Instead all signs point to matters getting worse. The DNC convention is expected to include an anti-Israel activist as a speaker along with a family of a hostage (presumably a carefully chosen one opposed to Israel continuing the war on Hamas).
And Kamala reportedly met in private with the mayor of America’s Jihad Capital. . .
Kamala appeared open to an arms embargo in a private exchange but her campaign quickly backpedaled. Biden had initiated a partial embargo on his own already.
The more revealing slip here is that Kamala met with Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud. After the Hamas atrocities of Oct 7, Dearborn Mayor Abdullah H. Hammoud had addressed a pro-Hamas rally declaring that Dearborn was “the city of resistance”

Bring the war home, indeed. The war is already home, and has been for decades, as the lat vestiges of America as founded are on the verge of being dismantled forever, in the wake of a decades long counter-American revolution to fundamentally transform us into yet another tyrannical hell on earth.

In that regard, what better example can there be but of Chicago itself:

If the message of this week’s Democratic National Convention is “We’re going to make America more like Chicago” then run for the hills.
After nearly 100 years of Democratic rule, the Windy City is a basket case. Soaring crime, high taxes, crippling debt, crumbling infrastructure, and a declining population are just some of the miseries inflicted on its citizens.
Chicago is the murder capital of America — with someone shot every two hours and someone killed every 17 hours. So far this year, 353 victims, most of them black, have been murdered in Chicago. The homicide rate is five times higher than New York’s.
“Democrats wanted to hold the convention somewhere safer, but Beirut wasn’t available,” quipped one wag. . .
. . . Despite education spending double the national average, at almost $30,000 per student annually, less than one-quarter of Chicago’s students can read at grade level and fewer than one in five are proficient a math — and it’s worse for black students, with just 17% able to read and 8% proficient in math.
Taking her cue from Johnson, Chicago Teachers Union president Stacy Davis Gates blames standardized testing, which she says is “junk science rooted in white supremacy [and] born out of the eugenics movement [which] has always sought to see black people as inferior.”
As a reward for their betrayal of Chicago’s children, the union is demanding pay rises and other perks for its members, totaling another $50 billion that would boost the average teacher’s salary by 50 percent to nearly $145,000.
To pay for it all, Brandon wants to raise taxes. “Seventy percent of large corporations in the state of Illinois did not pay a corporate tax,” he said last year. “And it’s that kind of restraint on our budget that has . . . led to poverty, of course, that has led to violence.”
. . . So, when Kamala Harris and Tim Walz take the stage in Chicago this week, they will feel right at home.
The deep blue city is a showpiece for the policies they want to impose on the rest of the country.

Munchausen's by Progressivism. Create the problem, exacerbate the problem, blame it on others and demand others be held responsible. At least when you're being mugged, you theoretically have the option of "your money or your life." With the Democrat left, it's "your money AND your life." Only then will justice be served and paradise on earth established.

Have a good day.

Harris did not explain how those new homes were to be built in a high-interest-rate environment. She also did not explain whether she meant 3 million units in addition to those that would already have been built, or three million units total. Nearly 1.5 million homes were built in the U.S. in 2023, so 3 million over four years would actually mean construction had slowed down by 50%. Presumably, she meant 3 million additional homes — 750,000 extra per year.

In 2014, Casey invested as much as $50,000 in Janus Flexible Bond A, a mutual fund that in turn held $10.8 million in the China National Offshore Oil Company (CNOOC), China’s largest offshore oil and natural gas company. The Pennsylvania treasury department blacklisted CNOOC in 2010 and 2014 for selling oil to Iran, according to agency records. While Casey’s investment in CNOOC was minimal, it could neutralize the Democrat’s line of attack against his Republican opponent Dave McCormick over a similarly small Chinese investment. Casey has tried to link McCormick, the former co-CEO of Bridgewater Associates, to Humanwell Pharmaceutical, a Chinese drug company that produces fentanyl, a painkiller that has caused a spike in drug overdoses in recent years.

It’s a shame because a great prizefight is still better than a great MMA fight in my opinion. There’s more opportunity for back-and-forth action, and most of the time in boxing, the better fighter wins. MMA is more unpredictable and prone to upsets; there’s no standing eight-count, so if you get caught with a solid shot, it’s a lot harder to recover and continue. In MMA, the better man often wins, but the outcomes seem more random.

21 GM Horde, and thanks again, JJ.

Personally, I'm doubtful that there'll be that much blowback over the Hamas Nazis. Most of the MFM will simply cover it up, rather than covering it. In 1968 the media, while no more honest than now, and also in the tank for Democrats, still wanted dramatic stories. And the riots were clearly that. I'm not at all sure they realized it was hurting them until after 1972.

30 Another U.S. military base under attack: Lackland Air Force Base returns fire on armed group in vehicle

>>>We called the area immediately off-base "Little Mexico" for a reason. SF patrol cars would "just happen" to patrol the streets and often called in the SAPD. Other than that, military personnel were highly discouraged from going into the area, and pretty much every establishment was on the "no-go" list.

So, it's entirely possible that this was an attempt at a foreign incursion, but given the area, it's more likely that it was gang violence spillover.

31 Members are also reportedly irked by Adas Israel’s decision to have Hamilton director Lin-Manuel Miranda, a non-Jewish Democratic activist, headline the synagogue’s Yom Kippur programming in October.
"[T]here are many more Adas members than you might realize, who are put off as well (some of whom are BCC'd here)," wrote the congregants. "I have spoken with a number who are dreading the upcoming high holidays, headlined bizarrely by father and son Miranda (hawking his book no less!)."

39 Harris did not explain how those new homes were to be built in a high-interest-rate environment. She also did not explain whether she meant 3 million units in addition to those that would already have been built, or three million units total.

What she says is what she means. She will build 3 million government controlled houses that will be used to move inner city (D)s into the suburbs and force the cost to shelter and feed these people on (R) voters.

News Flash: They have been doing this for generations.

It was in 1995 Alphonso Jackson of the Dallas County Housing Authority spent millions of tax dollars to build 3200 Section 8 units near the then wealthy neighborhoods of Plano. (the wealth went to Frisco and beyond) Allegedly this was "court ordered" to specifically target "predominantly white" neighborhoods. They spent 2x more money on the legal wrangling than they did on actual housing that resulted in only 75 families landing in an area that had zero support for a welfare state.

Didn't they try this once already with busing children away from their neighborhood schools to other side of town to satisfy some weird theory that black students can only learn when they can beat up and steal lunch money from imported white kids?

This is how you bring up "standardized test scores" you bus in loads of "ringers" who somehow can test well with garbage teachers merely because the kids are white.

And that they have never heard about things like pliable tissue found in a T-Rex fossil. Nor the flimsy rescue mechanisms used by the big bangers to explain away such findings.
Or how the JWST has shown us fully formed, even barred, galaxies at distances we were only supposed to be seeing small, clumpy galaxies in their earliest stages of forming.

120 Paul Krugman @paulkrugman Aug 17
Harris’s gouging proposal looks mild compared with the price-control hysteria. But some are writing as if gouging never happens. Has everyone forgotten about the California electricity crisis of 2001, in which power operators deliberately cut production to raise prices?

Michael Shellenberger @shellenberger Aug 18
The reason for the California electricity crisis of 2000 - 2001 was price controls on retail electricity and an insufficient supply of power plants. It’s yet another example of why Kamala Harris’ plan for price controls is idiotic and you’re a partisan hack.

alexandriabrown @alexthechick Aug 18
I don't know how to tell people this nicely. It is pointless to do all these explainers about profit vs profit margin and operating expenses and the like. The people shrieking about price gouging think any profit, any at all, is morally wrong. They won't listen.

Which is profane, that is to say, "On Brand" with them, because "joy" originally is a spiritual term describing a "delight of the mind arising from the consideration of a present or assured possession of a future good". In the Scriptures it is considered a "fruit of the Spirit" a "joy in faith" where the objects are God Himself, the Promises, the Gospel and the prosperity of Christ's Kingdom.

For these demons to hijack this word for its blasphemous means is consistent with all of their other lies, deceptions and perversions.

“This is tricky business that needs to be left to professionals,” Finkelhor said. “We don’t want to encourage non-professionals to get the idea that finding and catching criminals is really something that they should be doing. The whole basis of our judicial system is really that we turn over this function to a set of professionals and experts, because we want it done well. We want it done impartially. We want it done in ways that can be supervised and where accountability can be served. Once you get freelancers going in this space, all that is lost.”

195 Drunk/stoned Kamala thread:
Nichole Liza@nicholelizaq Aug 18
Anyone familiar with alcoholism has to see that Kamala Harris has a drinking problem, right? 🧵

1. She's drunk in public and on video. She's not *stupid* or *awkward* or *joyful* She's drunk. Day drunk. On the job. In front of cameras. In front of kids. She's drunk.

Watch the videos and see for yourself.

2. Her campaign team and the Biden Admin manage her the way families attempt to manage alcoholic parents:

The campaign is hyper-controlling, keeping her from any situation that might expose her secret - hence not allowing her to speak off-script, and refusing press conferences.

The Biden Admin was unhappy with Kamala and reluctant to give her responsibility. Though the administration did not admit it publicly, aides and staff reported it to the press with enough regularity that it was considered basic fact.

3. The ENTIRE *JOY* CAMPAIGN IS AN ELABORATE COVER FOR HER PUBLIC DRUNKENNESS. It's the classic "Mom's not drunk, she's just really happy!" on a national scale.

Mean is basically a human trait. Domesticated animals can be mean, but that's generally a product of interaction with people who have mistreated them. I suppose if you got close enough for the owl to feel threatened you might regret it but that's virtually impossible. Owls are amazing birds.

315 Trump leading any poll on the economy, much less every other major "meat and potatoes" issue is THE tell tale sign that his campaign is winning.

There are loons out there who will vote for Kamala because she's a woman or because they love killing babies or they love hating Jews, but normies are still the majority and they're more interested in paying for bread and Dr. Pepper.

This race is Trump's to lose, and anyone saying otherwise is only frustrated that he's not a traditional "failure theater" Bob Dole like candidate.

The nature of the charges haven’t been revealed by either the FBI or the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Local NBC affiliate WRC-TV reported that the council member’s car was searched at the scene. The City Paper reported that Mr. White, 40, will be held overnight and arraigned Monday.

385 While abortion access rights may still be a winning issue for Democratic candidates and related ballot measures, according to The New York Times, the Dobbs v. Jackson decision has had a negative impact on the abortion services industry. The ruling has made it far more difficult – and expensive – for abortion providers to do business – even in deep blue states.

The Times notes that many providers who have tried to expand into states with more liberal abortion laws have “faced fierce local resistance” and they’re discovering that “blue states can often be almost as hostile to their presence as red ones.”

As a result of the new challenges, the abortion industry, which “has always been a difficult business, with tiny-to-nonexistent profit margins,” is struggling.

403 '68 was not what has been the conventional wisdom about it. It was an intra-party coup by the New Left. Now there may be a new group attempting the same tactic. I wrote this years ago about the '68 convention.

There were 4 groups involved in this act. The members of the Party as a whole, especially the 1968 convention delegates. The “old left/progressive faction of the Party. The visible and noisy part of the “New Left” that took to the streets to protest and demonstrate in Chicago during the 1968 convention. Lastly the hidden, masked part of the “New Left”. The “Clean for Gene” who cut their hair and beards, donned suits and ties to look the part of respectable young political types while keeping their far left ideology, softer voiced now, fully intact.

A variation on the “good cop, bad cop” routine was played out. The “bad cop” being those crazy protesters in the streets. The “good cop” the leftist politicos, “Clean for Gene”, now McCarthy delegates to the convention able to intimate to others that we (delegates) have to do something, give something, to placate those crazies out there before they destroy the Party.

“More members of the public should understand that they are being victimized by false information disseminated by those whose interests have more to do with money and power than with environmental concerns,” he said. “Answers found in relatively simple mathematics strongly suggest this to be the case.”

Anyone with a Molotov cocktail in hand, now that was "shoot to kill" because Arson is among the most heinous of crimes.

458 Arab American voters still on fence about Harris as Dems convene in Chicago. Harris needs to demonstrate a clear break from President Joe Biden’s approach to Israel’s war against Hamas that’s killed an estimated 40,000 people in Gaza...“She’s been somewhat signaling that she’s not OK with the killing of Palestinians right now, but then the administration announced another arms sale to Israel of $20 billion..."

They think Trump aligns with their values?!?!!! This is NOT the time to try and strong arm ANYONE for a vote.

Where have we heard that befoe? Stein voters in in 2016.

It's a fucking binary choice. One of two people will be the next POTUS. sitting out IS a choice -- for TCF. Only a delusional fuckwit would think that TCF is going to achieve fewer dead Palestinians than Harris.

Perhaps they'd be more comfortable carrying "Sinwar for President" signs. That said, Netanyahu also desperately needs his ass kicked up to his shoulder blades.

She still reports to Biden as the VP. She is on his team until January. To ask her to publicly disavow any Biden policy is disingenuous.

But come next January... https://tinyurl.com/u3fa55uf

You might as well be speaking a foreign language.

This used to be a thing. It was called "conservationism." In a nutshell, the premise was along the lines of, "do what you need to do, but don't be willfully or purposefully destructive. Be careful, reduce environmental damage where you can, be sensible in your hunting, be moderate in your use of chemicals, set up some natural preserves, etc."

All of that is utterly foreign now. Conservationism is dead and has been for generations. It was replaced with environmentalism, and mere moderation has no place in environmentalism.

Consider that it might be true, and question definitions.

What does "opportunity" mean?

If it means "to raise a family well" or "live peacefully" or whatever, then one must question the person's sanity.

If it means, "access to a more diverse economy" or "a higher paycheck," then it could be quite rational. Chicago's economy is larger and more diverse than Denver's and while Chicago is also very expensive and grossly dysfunctional, so is Denver.

They would, and probably will provide actual support for terrorists in the event of an attack. They can drive them to various places, give them food and shelter and even procure weapons for them. They don't have to actually participate in an attack to "feel like they are making a difference."

Rampell said, “It was interesting to me that she seems to have toned down some of the rhetoric that her campaign was putting out earlier this week on the price gouging stuff. If you look at the materials that the campaign had sent out a few days ago to reporters, perhaps you received them as well, Julia, it was about punishing companies for raising prices above their costs and things like that, and echoed some bill text that is currently sitting in the Senate, proposed by Sens. Bob Casey (D-PA) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) that is basically price controls.

530 >>Islamists do have an alliance with the left but their views on actual issues don't align very well.

Islamists align with the Democrats because they are weak and easily manipulated. As for their "tolerance" of the Democrats' stuff like LGBTQ, abortion, etc., you have to understand the concept of "muruna:"

Few Westerners are familiar with the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood revival of the doctrine of muruna, which literally means “stealth” or “flexibility.” It is far worse than taqiyya, since it sanctions all prohibitions that block Muslim interests, even blasphemous ones. Muruna allows Muslims to sow division and confusion in the Western world. . .

Muruna is literally accomplished by permitting behavior normally so eschewed by Sharia that Westerners logically assume a more moderate version of Islam when such prohibitions are suddenly permitted. Westerners’ eyes are, in fact, deceiving them. Muruna is about going to great lengths to gain interests through a much deeper level of deception while simultaneously lowering the guard and gaining the support of the infidels.

540 Looking a little insurrection-ish at Chicago’s United Center all of a sudden as Illinois Governor Jabba the Pritzker orders a wall built around the perimeter to protect the Democratic Party from its very own basket of deplorables — the pro-Hamas, Antifa / BLM nose-ring-for-lunch bunch — with the state’s National Guard “on standby.” The New York Post and other news sources report 100,000 anti-Israel protesters migrating there to liven-up a convention that also has the potential to go off-script inside the arena — since the script was written by a handful of party mandarins, with the gamed consent of the convened delegates, who might be a little ticked off about the deal.

549 503 The "outrage mobs" the Democrats bring to events are not necessarily "paid" to be there. Many of the individuals are staffers who recruit others to go to these events. They are provided free transportation, meals, legal services and given whatever weapons and signage is going to be relevant.

It's play-acting. They do it for the thrill. Most are white, rich kids from social/politically connected families.

They would, and probably will provide actual support for terrorists in the event of an attack. They can drive them to various places, give them food and shelter and even procure weapons for them. They don't have to actually participate in an attack to "feel like they are making a difference."

That they may end up without heads as a result does not even begin to register with them.

The DJIA closed at about 40,660 on Friday — up almost a third from the last day of trading in 2020, when it was 30,606. But inflation has depreciated the dollar by about 20% since the end of 2020, which makes Friday’s DJIA 32,528 in constant dollars.

A 6% return after more than 3.5 years is nothing to brag about but you can bet Harris-Walz will be doing just that.

In the event of a motor failure, oil and fuel may be released into the engine compartment and accumulate near ignition sources, possibly resulting in a fire, the regulator said.

The recall affects SUVs from model years 2020-2022 equipped with 3.3L hybrid and gas engines.
