The Morning Report — 8/30/24

Good Morning Kids. Well, to be perfectly fair, when Kamala Harris states, in response to the accusations of her flip-flopping on her positions regarding every issue under the sun, her assertion that her "values have not changed" is indeed 1,000% truthful, honest and accurate. That's because she is a committed Marxist-Leninist whose entire adult life has been devoted to the dismantling of this nation as founded, all in service to that goal as she attains power and influence and a prime position on top of the smoldering ruins.

Like every other Leftist politician, flip-flopping on issues, is merely the stock in trade that they see as necessary to convince us despicable, "DEPLORABLE!" rubes in flyover country who "bitterly cling to our guns and Bibles" to not believe our lying eyes and convince us that they're as American as baseball, hotdogs, apple pie and Chevrolet, as opposed to gulags, tree bark soup and drag queen story hour.

Unfortuntately, considering the track records of far too many in the GOP over the course of many election cycles now (even going back to IKE who didn't lift a finger to try and reverse any of the New Deal) who promise the moon if we only vote harder, flip-flopping is not the lone purview of Leftists.

while this pre-canned, pre-digested "interview" of Harris and her emotional support white man was a dumpster fire, the true believers who will still reflexively vote for them and stuff ballot boxes for them will likely not see it that way.

Did you catch Kamala Harris' first "interview" as the Democrat Party nominee for president? It was pretty much everything you'd expect from an interview conducted by CNN. Lots of softball questions, lots of word salad responses.
CNN anchor Dana Bash actually asked some decent questions, but what really struck me about the interview was that Kamala Harris, more often than not, avoided answering most of the questions, and Bash didn't seem to be concerned with getting an actual answer.
You knew things were going to be bad when Harris really struggled to give a coherent answer to the cliché question about what she would do on "on day one."
. . . While Dana Bash asked some decent questions of Harris and Walz, she also asked plenty of softball questions that were a complete waste of time. Now, again, this was 18 minutes of actual interview that was aired, reportedly trimmed down from something longer, so it's no shock that so much of the interview was fluff and softball questions, and it's no shock that Dana Bash never called Harris out for blatantly lying. It's also not shocking that Kamala was never presented with clips of her own words endorsing the exact opposite of what she claims to be about now. And Walz wasn't pressured to explain why he lied about his service, his DUI arrest, and about using IVF. Bash just accepted his longwinded and weak response about his "grammar" sometimes being wrong as a legitimate explanation. . .
. . . Trust me, you'll never see Donald Trump get such an easy interview. Not even from Fox News. Kamala was asked about the "iconic" photo of her giving her speech at the DNC, and Walz got a question about his son being so proud of him at the convention.

The nation, that is to say what still remains of it, would have been better served, Had RFK Jr.s running mate Nicole Shanahan been allowed to say her peace:

But she is a traitor to the counter-American revolution and as such is to be eradicated.

Until recently, Shanahan’s political orientation was Democrat. For 20 years, she’s donated to Democrat candidates and funded Democrat issues. However, she’s also suspicious of big-tech and big-pharm medicine. She distrusts IVF for infertility and thinks that women aren’t getting enough sunlight. (This isn’t as crazy as it sounds. As COVID shows, Americans are sorely lacking in Vitamin D, which is a necessary ingredient in our immune systems.) Also, because her daughter is autistic, she’s interested in non-standard approaches. (As this luminous novel reveals, the scientific community has been awful at autism.)
In March 2024, Shanahan joined Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., as his running mate in his independent presidential campaign. By this time, Shanahan had already witnessed the Democrat party freeze Kennedy out of the primaries, and from March forward, she saw Democrats ensure that Kennedy couldn’t get on most state ballots.
Now that the campaign is over and Kennedy has endorsed Trump, Shanahan has done a few press appearances—with conservatives, everyone from Jesse Watters to Adam Carolla. What’s interesting is that this exposure to actual conservatives, rather than to the leftist caricature of conservatives, is that, as she told Dave Smith, she now understands how the media and the Democrat establishment have consistently lied about conservatives and the MAGA movement:
. . . You know, actually, the best part of joining forces with Trump has been seeing MAGA, which I'm learning so much about. I was completely misinformed about what MAGA is. I don't know if you've taken any deep dives into MAGA-world, but I was just under the impression that they were gun-toting radicals who wanted to come to my doorstep and rip my liberal family out of my house, and, I don't know, do horrible things to liberals. And that's how that's how MAGA has been sold to a huge portion of America by the mainstream media.
And I have to say that what I have learned about MAGA is that they're actually their own party. They're their own grassroots organization that chose Donald Trump. They have so much power in deciding where to point their energy and support.
And they are really, really smart, thoughtful, intellectual people within MAGA. I’ve received beautifully written notes from MAGA supporters, and they were...
You know, our base didn't know how to engage with MAGA. Our base was not, you know, MAGA-oriented in the sense of even knowing who and what MAGA was and what their infrastructure was. In many ways, it's an online, viral movement.

An open mind is a terrible thing to waste. Are Shanahan, and RFK Jr. merely outliers, if this is merely sour grapes at the Democrats for screwing them over, then blasting their erstwhile compatriots, and theoretical fellow travelers seems quite counterproductive in long-term political strategy. Or is there a significant percentage of people out there who are having the scales fall from their eyes, to greater or lesser extents about who and what the source of all the ills of this nation really are?

Regardless of what I still disagree on issue-wise with these two, it's vital to build a bridge and find common ground, now that an opportunity exists with two influential people that do have an audience. Compromise where we can and try our best to not just sway them to our side but convince them we indeed are on the same side vis a vis creating a society that elevates liberty and the individual over the state.

Have a good weekend.

The decision follows two incidents earlier this week.

13 that Daniel Greenfield piece makes a good point:

"The uncomfortable answer is that Joe Biden was never running anything. The system is humming along the same way it did before whether he’s in the White House playing with paper clips and telling old stories or lying on the beach in Rehoboth. If that’s difficult to believe, it wasn’t all that long ago that Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who was on the verge of death, hospitalized and no longer knew where she was, kept signing letters and co sponsoring bills.

No one tried to remove Biden using the 25th Amendment because he didn’t matter anyway."

I agree to a certain extent. But regardless of what they're selling. If someone borrows money to buy it, they are legally and morally responsible to pay back what they borrowed.

The value of College degrees, especially in the bullshit courses, is indeed an issue to be addressed. But If someone borrows X,000,000 to become a doctor or lawyer or engineer or whatever, for them to demand the taxpayer pick up the tab is disgusting.

31 There are millions of people on the other side who are outright disaffected and disenfranchised, or at least bemused by their party and having confusing, humanity-curious urges.

They may disagree with us on many things. But we have more in common with one another than we have in common with the wretched cunts in our """parties."""

On the outside chance that Americans of Humanity can get over the cult programming and join forces, even if just temporarily, then the demonic regime controlling our country is doomed in that moment.

33 "MAHA", or Make America Healthy Again ass Nicole Shanahan put it, persuaded a suburban woman I know (someone who voted for Biden last time around) to take another look at PDJT. Her issue is the food supply, which she thinks is over processed and can be unhealthy, so while this may seem like a fringe issue, it was big to RFK supporters and might just draw in some voters.

Trump, IMHO. made such a stupid error with his new talking points on abortion. There was no reason for him to even be discussing this. Except to say it’s a state issue now. He will not when a single liberal woman’s vote, but he will most certainly lose a lot of evangelical votes. He needed all the enthusiasm he could get going into this election with his base and this took the wind out of the sails for a lot of pro-life voters, me included. I will vote for him still, but these moves to the left makes me wonder if he has learned anything and if he is letting his new “independent/liberal’ friends co-op his platform.

That's what I thought when I heard her say she completely misunderstood MAGA. What kind of bubble must someone like that live in to come to that realization after all these years? It can't be because the evidence was not out there. We all saw it. She must have willfully ignored it because of the way the MSM portrayed MAGA, and what her peers believe to be true.

Trump is correct about the six week ban being too short. He got asked the question and he truthfully replied.

51 27 If someone borrows money to buy it, they are legally and morally responsible to pay back what they borrowed.

I'm in full agreement, especially since I've done that myself. What we need is a high school guidance counselor to sit these students down and ask "What is your Major going to be?" and "How do you expect to earn a living at it?"

The value of College degrees, especially in the bullshit courses, is indeed an issue to be addressed.

This is where we need The Bobs from Office Space to sit down with colleges.

But If someone borrows X,000,000 to become a doctor or lawyer or engineer or whatever, for them to demand the taxpayer pick up the tab is disgusting.

Especially since there are programs and opportunities available for them to pay off that loan in return for work. Perhaps that can be expanded to other degree fields.

This has been a very hard month. Too many contractors traipsing through, too much waiting for things to be delivered or picked up, too many vet visits, too many doctor visits, too much tragedy. Plus I had three projects to work on and all of them difficult and not in my wheelhouse.

At least the projects have been cleared off. I asked them not to send me any in September. The vet visits are, pray God, over for the moment. We have quotes on the repairs. Some of them are underway. So maybe I can concentrate on getting things back in order and improving my health.

Gay marriage advocates did not drop their support of Obama at all. Why? Because they knew he was on their side, and he was simply saying what he needed to so he can get elected. They got what they wanted from him at the end, of course.

More to the point, until and unless they're more or less forced to interact with large numbers of vocal conservatives, why would they believe you.

141 Gov. Polis' hubby is a peach:
Colorado First Gentleman Marlon Reis deactivated his social media accounts after getting into a howling match about wolves on Facebook over the weekend.

Reis . . . got into a heated exchange in the comments with David Gittleson [a rancher in Walden who for years has dealt with wolves killing his livestock].

“The truth is I don’t care. I don’t care what you do or don’t eat. I don’t care what you think you know or what you think you’re qualified to comment on,” Rais railed at Gitttleson. I don’t care why your family seems to love the limelight and never misses an opportunity to trash talk the Front Range. If you’re proud of being a rancher, act like it. All this complaining is leading nowhere fast,” he continued. You’ve abused the media by stoking fear of wolves. An entire agency is at your disposal for solving disputes. The interference you think is happening is made-up,” Reis said in another comment. “David, I want you to do well. But you have to use the system that’s been set up. No one gets special treatment. The law applies equally to all parties.”

She's a woman of color. Everything she says is inherently worthy of criticism, inherently flawed and wrong and incorrect, just categorically to these people.

She had immediate responses to DB's questions-- good, strong responses. DB seemed uptight and maybe a mite
frustrated because Kamala was "pitch perfect," as you said.

that idiot stefanik bitched because, according to her, the joint interview was an insult to women. See how easy that was?

"Same old tired playbook. Next question please." with a big fat PERIOD! Best answer of the interview. Bash tried to trigger a response about The Felons "she's Asian then all of a sudden she's black" remark. That was fucking SWEET!

She cannot act outraged (even though it's deserved). She has to sort of laugh it off and not go negative. Obama used a similar tactic which was effective, but it’s super frustrating that they cannot call racists racists.

She's not going to let them make this about race.

185 An open mind is a terrible thing to waste. Are Shanahan, and RFK Jr. merely outliers, if this is merely sour grapes at the Democrats for screwing them over, then blasting their erstwhile compatriots, and theoretical fellow travelers seems quite counterproductive in long-term political strategy.

This is my stance as I do not trust them as far as I can throw the Sears Tower. I do not believe they can change their spots this quickly.

I think they're playing a game to gain some power and grow it quietly.

I don't trust them.

What!

Nicole Shanahan, the vice presidential candidate picked by independent hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr, walked away with more than $1 billion following her divorce from ex-husband and Google co-founder Sergey Brin, according to a report.

Shanahan, the 38-year-old California native who worked as a lawyer in Silicon Valley before entering politics, finalized her divorce from Brin last year. Her split from Brin was reportedly triggered by an alleged affair she had with his longtime friend, tech mogul Elon Musk.

During their five-year marriage, Shanahan attended parties with other tech executives in Silicon Valley where she consumed recreational drugs including cocaine, ketamine and psychedelic mushrooms, according to The New York Times. . . .

SpaceX and X are two completely different companies with different shareholders. I own about 40% of SpaceX, so this absolutely illegal action by the dictator @alexandre improperly punishes other shareholders and the people of Brazil.

I really wonder if that's true. The Democrat Party has always called themselves the Big Tent Party and built their power on a very diverse coalition. This is a party that embraces both Hamas and Jews.

I don't think many of them cared when they started taking actual communists into their party as long as they got their votes. And now communists run the party. Slowly, then all at once.

New England is full of old school Yankee Democrats. Obviously, not my cup of tea but not communists. I lived for years in Boston which is 100% Democrat but it was one of the safest, cleanest and least oppressive big cities around. Conservatives weren't hunted, we were just ignored. We disagreed but they didn't want to exterminate us.

This new group of communists running the Party has almost nothing in common with the old school. These people hate America. The JFK/RFKs weren't my type but they did love this country. I think the Democrat Party is heading for a reckoning.

But that's the thing, it wasn't a long time ago everywhere. Clearly not in SF but Boston was pretty old school up until the last few years. And the cities descent has mirrored the change.

This whole DEI, ESG, race and gender uber alles stuff was percolating in the schools like Harvard but it wasn't mainstream at all. Now it is and the city is starting to come unmoored.

Look at what's happening with The Squad and Michigan. Dearbornistan is not happy with Democrats. New Epic (Democrat) poll of MI out today and Trump is +1. Trump is starting to draw significant union votes and black votes. A lot of Democrats are waking up to find out they have become the baddies.

350 The report revealed that in nearly half of the 327 cases the OIG reviewed, FBI personnel did not comply with mandatory reporting requirements to local law enforcement or social services, which severely undermined the agency’s efforts to protect children.

Our landlord fetched this what looked like a 120 year old doctor who brewed that up, put my mom’s face over the pot it with a towel over her head to breathe the steam and told her to do that 6 times a day.

There's a tendency on our side to believe that because the left is corrupt and controls most of the levers of our society they are unbeatable. That was never true. We just have to fight back.

I will also reiterate that Musk buying Twitter will go down in history as one of the most important acts for saving this country. Many scoff at social media but there's a reason the left fought like hell to destroy Musk.

411 When my dad went to the ER a short time ago, the first thing the rude nurse did was shove a q-tip up his knows and scraped his brain. He didn't like that one bit and his wife asked 'what was THAT for?!?' and was told "COVID!!!!" as the nurse stormed out of the room.

He wasn't sick, showed no symptoms of anything and was there for a completely different reason.

It was funny.

When Mom decided to go to work, cuz we were all in high school or college, it made my Dad a little nuts, because,

they actually lost a significant amount of money each year because her earnings kicked them into a high enough income bracket.

Buuuuut, keeping the wife happy weighs fairly heavily on the Scales of Life.

An enjoyable time was had by all. Was at a cool little amphitheater. Kids got to basically have the run of the place down near the stage.

As soon as "Taylor" popped on stage, daughter ran up to me, snag my phone and now I have a six minute video of some song I don't know.

She hands my phone back, heads back down and before I know it, she's sitting on top of some platform, leaning on stage, dead center.

Don't think she could've had a better time. Hate to say that I'm kind of happy the wife got hit with a migraine but I had a great time.

Cover bands actually make a lot of sense, and remind me of a guitarist on YouTube reacting to people posting videos of them playing epic guitar solos. He said something along the lines of "there are plenty of great guitarists who can, with a little practice, play these solos well. What's tough is having the ability to play a great solo and compose one that memorable.

I'm not a big fan of concerts/live music, but if you area, a cover band of a favorite band or genre should be a great show.

No, if all you have seen is MSM, and not the sources we see, it is very easy to believe the consistent gaslighting, because it has its own consistency. That gives it the air of reality.

Physicists have been gaslighting everyone, including themselves, about "Conservation of Energy" for 150 years and virtually everyone believes it.

488 485 What kind of bubble must someone like that live in to come to that realization after all these years? It can't be because the evidence was not out there. We all saw it. She must have willfully ignored it because of the way the MSM portrayed MAGA, and what her peers believe to be true.

No, if all you have seen is MSM, and not the sources we see, it is very easy to believe the consistent gaslighting, because it has its own consistency. That gives it the air of reality.

Physicists have been gaslighting everyone, including themselves, about "Conservation of Energy" for 150 years and virtually everyone believes it.

513 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J.

Watched a very brief segment of Harris' interview. Was under the impression she was reading from prepared notes to begin answering the question posed & was also filmed face forward. The camera cut away, to a side stage shot - no papers, cards, etc. could be seen on the table before her - then back to face forward filming, and then she began her standard, nonsensical embellishments w/hand gestures. Like icing on a cake, they'd like us to believe.

Simply put, she's a continuation of the Joey show with 'staff' prepared "responses" that, once they've run out, will always lead to nonsensical theatrics (yelling, whispering, laughing, feigned anger & indignation, venn diagrams).

The Obviously, they've BOTH had the name but not the game. Husk was long touted as 'the' distinguished foreign policy expert, and she the hard hitting, won't back down, enforcer of laws. So, do 'we' like the current direction of the nation?

BTW, off script - or likely pretending as such - BHO was often a 'preview of the future' speaker, i.e. Los Angeles Times, Top of the Ticket, 'Opinion: Was Barack Obama stupid to call Cambridge police stupid? July 23, 2009

514 Cont'd: Louisiana Illuminator, 'Donald Trump says Florida's 6-week abortion law is "too short" by Mitch Perry, August 30, 2024

In part, "Burns then asked Trump, a Florida resident, if that meant he would support the proposed constitutional amendment on the ballot in November that would restore the right to an abortion up until viability (considered to be around 24 weeks).

"I am going to be voting that we need more than six weeks, he replied, not directly answering the question."
---
Imo, a proposed CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT RESTORING THE 'RIGHT' to an abortion UP TO VIABILITY (which is "it depends") is a non-starter. It's already Pennsylvania law & has creeped all the way up to birth.)

However, we MUST deal with the following & other related issues: PBS News, 8,000 women a month got abortion pills despite their states' ban or restrictions, survey finds, May 14, 2024.

Abortion was "sold" under Pres. Clinton, that it should be safe, legal and rare. And while not a wholly honest pitch from Bill - (See EWTN com: 'President Clinton's Record on Abortion') - it should be safe, legal and rare.

515 In part, "The mifepristone and misoprostol regimen can be used up through 12 weeks for an at-home abortion."

(OTOH, this quite concerning: British Pregnancy Advisory Service: The Abortion pill from 10 to 24 weeks. Please note, we are currently not offering this treatment type.)

But this was positive: CNN, 'A long-awaited birth control option for men may be closer to reality' June 5, 2024

And, then there's The Hyde Amendment which we might forget about but the progressives won't. (KFF, The Hyde Amendment and Coverage for Abortion Services Under Medicaid in the Post-Roe Era, Published: Mar 14, 2024)

We desperately need to get our borders and foreign policies in order before they kill us, but also to pick a moderate position for abortion, centered on young women's & men's health. All, imo.

Have a wonderful weekend.
