The Morning Report — 9/13/24

duckeyevoodoo.jpg

Good Morning Kids. Happy triskaidekaphobia day. Your irrational fear of a 13-sided Triscuit is baseless. As is my Claude Rains shocked face at quite a few of the headlines. Considering the times in which we live and all that we have witnessed, so many things should neither shock nor surprise, but they certainly are nonetheless revolting in the extreme.

I mean, really!

It’s funny just how insanely wealthy our “public servants” are. This is the kind of thing you expect from European royalty, not former American government officials. But how much of a difference is there really?

Jewelry, political mementos and a “stunning collection of American art” once belonging to Sen. Dianne Feinstein are hitting the auction block.

The “Legacy of a Stateswoman” auction from Bonhams, happening Oct. 8 in Los Angeles, will include some of the California Democrat’s most beloved — and glitzy — personal items.

“Legacy of a Stateswoman”. How classy. The legacies of elected officials were supposed to be their deeds. In Feinstein’s case, the legacy was clinging to power and a $65,000 diamond ring.

Among the more than 70 baubles and jewels up for auction is a “dazzling 4.14 carat diamond ring flanked by tapered baguette diamonds,” which is expected to fetch as much as $65,000.

Feinstein, like many Democrats (take a look at the scandal starting to swirl around Eric Adams, Kathy Hochul and others in NYC and state) and quite a few Republicans (Hello Mitch McYertle and his ancient Chinese secret of a wife) are to some extent in the pocket of the Red Chinese. And Feinstein's chauffeur in her employ for decades was an agent of the CCP. Hello Eric Yum-Yum Swalwell! Of course, there's nothing like the perpetual, general domestic graft coming at Congress from K street and elsewhere that can fatten a politician's bank account in no time flat. They either retire or get carried out of the Rotunda in a flag-draped coffin with upwards of five extra zeros at the end of their balance sheets than when they ran for office as mere concerned citizen champions of Joe six-pack and the American dream.

Meh, I wasted way too many pixels on this. Of course I know your jaw will just hit the floor with this revelation that is second only to what we saw watching Geraldo Rivera cracking open Al Capone's vault:

However, there are reports now that an ABC News whistleblower is about to come forward with evidence that Kamala was given sample questions before the debate. . . The reports appear to originate from this post from an X/Twitter user who says he or she will release "an affidavit from an ABC whistleblower regarding the debate." "I have just signed a non-disclosure agreement with the attorney of the whistleblower," the post claims. "The affidavit states how the Harris campaign was given sample question which were essentially the same questions that were given during the debate and separate assurances of fact checking Donald Trump and that she would NOT be fact checked. Accordingly, the affidavit states several other factors that were built into the debate to give Kamala a significant advantage."

Do tell, really?:

A recent fluff piece on ABC’s Lindsey Davis in the LA Times not only proves this to be fact, but she’s bragging about their behind-the-scenes plan to ensure Trump was not able to end Harris’s campaign the same way he did President Joe Biden’s at the CNN debate in June.

“In an era in which misinformation spreads fast and furious, Davis’ real-time fact check cut through the proceedings like a sharp blade,” the LA Times wrote. “Davis, wearing pink glasses while speaking to The Times over breakfast at the Ritz Carlton in Philadelphia, said the decision to attempt to correct the candidates was in response to the June 27 CNN debate between Trump and President Biden, whose poor performance led to his exit from the race.” The outlet added that in the weeks leading up to the debate, everyone involved at ABC played out “various scenarios” in table read-like sessions to ensure their ability to “fact check” in real time to avoid a redo of Trump’s debate against Biden.


And if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, they're on it like a Haitian on voodoo!

In a media advisory, the secretary of state's office noted, "The office’s Election Integrity Unit recently concluded an investigation into the origins of an illegal voter registration form translated into the Haitian Creole language. The Clark County Board of Elections reported this form to our office after rejecting its submission by a local applicant." 

In a memo to election officials, Hun Yi, director of investigations for the Secretary of State's Public Integrity Division, said, “The Board confirmed they’ve only received one of these unauthorized forms, but they rightly recognized it as illegal and worked with my team to track down its source with the help of a county government assistance office."

“The form was erroneously included among others outsourced to a foreign language translation service. It garnered national attention considering the high number of Haitian refugees that have recently migrated to the Springfield area, and it serves as an important reminder that boards and designated voter registration agencies should be vigilant about the use of forms submitted to their office," Yi added. 

Clark County is home to Springfield, Ohio, where as many as 30,000 Haitians have unexpectedly migrated—most of them semi-legally after the Biden-Harris administration extended Temporary Protected Status to 300,000 Haitian migrants in June. 

The mass migration to Springfield has taxed hospitals, schools, and social services as the population went from around 60,000 to more than 80,000 overnight.

For the life of me, I can't understand anyone having kittens over this. Oh wait, phrasing. Bad Juju (gris-gris?), from me, which makes me a bad Jew Jew. And just before the High Holidays! Oh the humanity.

Have a nice weekend.

The problem isn’t the media, Kagan concludes. And it isn’t government. It isn’t a problem with institutions at all: “The problem is and has always been the people and their beliefs.” The thing that’s wrong with America is Americans, full stop. The country works brilliantly, except for the existence of the population.

9 Happy Friday!

I'm no fan of Diane Feinstein, but do you remember the huge public displays of sorrow when she died, her body in the Capitol Rotunda so that citizens could express their grief and respect, and the televised memorial service bringing with DC VIPs? The MSM lovingly reviewing her career as a trailblazing female politician?

Oh wait, no. That didn't happen. McCain got the funeral service that never ends, while DiFi was forgotten within a week. And remind me again, what did she die from? Yes, she was old, but what killed her?

41 Apparently, they plan to keep laughing about Haitians eating people's pets:

In their new live Peacock special New York After Dark, Colin Jost and Michael Che delivered a tease for what “Weekend Update” fans can expect when Saturday Night Live returns on September 28, with some added political humor about the election. . .
Jost remarked, “Nothing sounds more presidential than screaming, ‘They’re eating the cats and the dogs!’ I mean, I think that was Thomas Jefferson, right? And I actually do have to thank our first sponsor, ‘Cats & Dogs: A dog meat for migrants.’”

As he said it, a stagehand gave Jost a bag of dog food with a taped-on “Cats & Dogs” label, which Jost displayed to the crowd. . .

Aida Rodriguez talked about Trump’s viral rant about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio “eating the dogs,” which she said gave her a realization about the state of the race.
“I was like, ‘oh, Donald Trump has lost his white women. That’s why he was like, ‘they coming for your pets, girl.’ And all the white b----es jumped in trucks with guns, and they headed to Ohio to kill my people. .
I’m half Puerto Rican and half Dominican. And I just want y’all to know: we coming for your pets."

Given that the US is the reason the war is going on in the first place, given that the US is desperately trying to escalate the war without it being totally obvious, this isn't surprising. In fact, it's so unsurprising that several commenters here have mentioned that there was a negotiated deal that got scuppered early on.

59 Daniel Greenfield is so good:

Putting together her campaign like a Taylor Swift concert series created the illusion of populism. Republican ineptitude kept her opponents from being able to define her, but instead she disastrously defined herself around vacuous cheerfulness and TikTok memes.

Kamala locked in Gen Z women and locked out male voters.

Democrats and their media are busy blaming sexism, but the issue isn’t resentment of women, but a candidate and a campaign incapable of talking to voters outside of her very narrow social circle and circle of preferences. Biden’s campaign trail behavior could be bizarre, but Kamala’s is just that of a blue city shut in who can’t help condescendingly speaking to everyone else.

Kamala compensates for her inadequacies not by getting to know other people, but by accusing them of racism and sexism. Toward the end of her failing primary campaign, Kamala Harris had complained, “Is America ready for that? Are they ready for a woman of color to be President of the United States?” Whenever Kamala’s campaign hits a wall, it still brings out the same line.


At the debate her inner beyotch was in full view.

When complimented from SpaceX mission control on their achievement, he said "We look for to our friends at the Artemis Program" to take us to even greater heights" to which MC responded "Well said, Dragon".

So, is that tongue-in-cheek? Artemis has spent nearly $100 billion over its seven year life snd hasn't flown a single crew into space. SpaceX, OTOH, flies crewed whenever they are allowed, and uncrewed every day, and sent space tourists to the highest flight in two generations.

79 This may sound snippy, but I don’t care. Kamala Harris did not get married till she was 49. She’s not an unattractive woman. I would guess that despite her sexual skills she just has an unattractive personality that puts men off and no, this is not a general comment about unmarried women. I know women who went through unhappy marriages and did not want to marry again. I also know women whose spouses died in their forties and this was long before internet dating services so they just didn’t meet someone.

The promise is that for most procedures, treatment will start within 18 weeks. In March 2010, there were just over 2.4m on the waiting list, of whom 200,000 had been waiting longer than 18 weeks. Of those, 20,000 had waited more than a year.

As the days creep by, it’s now crystallizing for me that the debate helped Trump… not tremendously, but a little bump. It turns out that the moderator bias was so obvious even LIVs noticed. And the one moment that has permeated the social media zeitgeist is the “eating your pets” moment. Trump win

The initial negative reaction by some was I suspect a hope for a knockout punch that was not realized combined with rage at the moderators… but I’ll take the result. It’ll be even better if that whistleblower report turns out to be true

I ran across this today and it runs parallel with the Rebel Capitalist video I posted the other day. Mortgages are being manipulated and certain properties are being targeted politically. Not only are they dumping illegal scum into our towns, but taking over homes, hurting hard-working home owners, in order to dump more votes into districts. Like Charlie Kirk and others have said, this election goes down to a handful of districts. These districts are being targeted.

In addition, We can all get irritable on here, but repeated attack by conservatives on other conservatives here gets to be a bore. It's no wonder some posters are saying that they need breaks from that. We don't have to agree with other conseratives about everything or like their personalities to realize if they're voting against the Dems they're really not the enemy.

There are lots of government officials who are significantly wealthier today than they were in 2022 as a result of the war. It would have been unfair to deny them this wealth. The common "Ukrainians" killed in the fighting are not relevant as they were not government officials. -- Victoria Nuland (probably)

Some snips from National Geographic:

"One common saying is that Haitians are 70 percent Catholic, 30 percent Protestant, and 100 percent voodoo," said Lynne Warberg, a photographer who has documented Haitian voodoo for over a decade.
...
During the ceremony, the houngan or mambo—priest or priestess—sacrifices a sanctified chicken or other animal to the Loa. Participants then ask the spirits for advice or help with problems. More than half the requests are for health.
...
These disembodied spirits are believed to become tired and worn down—and rely on humans to "feed" them in periodic rituals, including sacrifices. "It's not the killing of the animals that matters," Corbett said. "It's the transfer of life energy back to the Loa."

Like this morning. It's trash day. I go to toss my spent Kcup in the kitchen trash and I notice the can is full. Guess who forgot to take the trash bin down to the road. My hint... the kitchen trash isn't empty, like it should be.

So I head out with the bag, and of course it's sprinkling. No worries. Except it's remnants of the tropical storm and it doesn't 'just' sprinkle. Nah... gotta' have a little downpour too.

Anyway... being old and forgetful having hints like this is sometimes the only way I can keep things straight.

Women are choosing those men that are out of their league, having flings for the sexual benefit of the man (in an attempt to secure him by giving it up freely), and then thinking that the prestigious and wealthy and unusually handsome men are her new level that she can attain.

Similar to handing children phones and screens 24/7, this experiment in hookup dating and attempts at relationships has damaged real-world relationship potential, and it will just get worse.

It's interesting when something like the cat memes take off. While I agree with Daniel Greenfield that it's not about cats, it's about the murders, etc.. the cat videos are so effective because they allow us to laugh and let off some steam about something that is stressful. Like gallows humor from first responders, they're not really making fun of tragedies, they need to make some jokes so that the awful things they see every day don't overwhelm them.

Well, Americans are feeling pretty overwhelmed right now with the inflation, unemployment, the increased crime and shortages. I work with Lefties and they are upset, too, but they're simply unable to understand the cause. Cat memes cut through that, a little laugh amidst the horrifying news out of Aurora, Springfield and elsewhere. And hey, if a Lefty who has a nagging feeling that something is not right about the illegal aliens getting gov't benefits and legal exemptions, it effectively boils the issue down to: why do they let people barge in and eat our pets!!!

227 Lloyd Billingsley: Why did Dems not denounce the shooting of 49er Ricky Pearsall as gun violence?

Illegal Procedure

-------------

[From the link:] ... Pearsall was making his way through San Francisco’s Union Square when an armed robber demanded his watch, reportedly a Rolex. Pearsall refused to give it up and in the ensuing struggle the robber shot Pearsall in the chest.

Interesting, hadn't heard about this after ditching the MDM-MSM Progda State Enemedia decades (as well as professional sports in general); however, while listening in the car to a local radio station talking about the Diamondbacks playing at San Francisco -- and the Mariners playing at Oakland and both teams staying in the same hotel -- they mentioned that the coaches were instructing players not to show off their (IMHO should be banned during games -- and get off my lawn!) bling on The Streets of San Francisco lest they get shot for it.

Now I know why ...

236 Similar to handing children phones and screens 24/7, this experiment in hookup dating and attempts at relationships has damaged real-world relationship potential, and it will just get worse.

I managed it after my divorce, and I was well past 40, though I didn’t use a dating app. He ticks all the supposed necessary boxes, except they forgot to point out even with all that, annoying is still part of the picture at times. If only he was as wonderful as I am at all times. (Don’t stand too close in case of stray lightening).

You're remarkably fit, correct? Even if you're a butterface (which you most definitely are not), you're almost certainly the top 1-5% of women in the dating market at that age. More likely 1-2%. I could see why you would have no problem finding a suitor.

What's happening in dating apps is fairly average 18-22 year old women that are at their peak stage of beauty thinking "I can't find anyone locally, I'm going to expand my zip code to four (or more) hours away."

The average local men are competing against that, and their handsome/wealthy friends are entering their zip codes for women searching for them up to four hours away.

Me being me I didn’t bother responding. She messaged me again a few days later basically calling me an asshole for not responding. So I responded with I wasn’t wasting my time on a rando that was over four hours away from me round trip.

Later I met my wife through a nothing dating service. She worked less than 10 minutes from where I lived and at the time and didn’t live much further away than that and yet our paths would likely never have crossed.

I am laughing so hard at your disclaimer. I am fit now, yes. But at the time, I was a little more than 60 pounds heavier than I am now. I was the “you have a pretty face” girl. Hahahahha. It had to be my magnetic personality. I decided 3.5 years ago, I was tired of being chubby so I changed every last thing about myself physically, and ended up buying a fitness studio as part of that transformation. I am fairly obnoxious about working out now, eating right, all of it. It’s my age denial plan.

278 The way people remember things and make decisions is funny.

It's kinda coming out that, while Harris "won" the debate, after people stew it over in their minds, they are reverting back to their baseline of inclination to support Trump.

And that's why Harris desperately needed a massive viral moment from the debate:
When the glow of the debate wears off, people revert to baseline. And then the brain searches for "memories" to support that.

Instead of being reminded of a Harris moment--and resetting the baseline--they're only seeing Trump moments.
Reinforcing the baseline.

332 Regarding the Springfield, OH city government...

According the mayor's Facebook page, he 'identifies' as a Republican. Just based on appearances, I'd say the town's government is left of center. They likely took a wad of cash, either from the junta or (more likely) the OH governor to 'take in' the Haitians. I'd be curious to know if the circumstances where ever discussed in public, but I'm betting not.

There's also a private, liberal arts college in town that I think is a primary source of income... students and their parents most likely. I'd bet it's probably fairly left of center too. Run by Lutherans IIRC. Or it used to be.

So... conditions on the ground were/are ripe for a 'resettlement' op. The public there probably have no idea what went down... but do now.

It wasn’t this way when I moved here in the 80’s. We had a Dem congressman and Dem WI assembly and senate. Then we got stuck with Walker and gerrymandering.

Milwaukee Irish. Northern Wisconsin has long had pockets of extreme right wingers; very racist against native Americans & people of color.

Let this be a warning. Despite our post-debate elation, the race remains close, and TSF has about 70 milllion cultists who will vote for him no matter what. It won’t take much more for him to win, unless we work like crazy to GOTV.

I live in a rural village in Dunn county that is roughly 52-48 blue...rural areas are bright red with trump signs everywhere. Grew up in Polk County...north and to the West...now hopelessly red...irredeemable

Anyone remember the movie "Rollover?" Ted Turner made it for his wife back in the 80s. The premise was that the Arabs dumped the Dollar in favor of gold, crashing the capital markets.

367 In September, [John Legend and Chrissy Teigen] suffered a pregnancy loss at 20 weeks, and in an emotional Instagram post, Teigen shared intimate photos of herself crying at the hospital, including one of her holding baby Jack in her arms. . . .

**fast forward a few years**

The US model revealed in 2020 that she had lost a baby at 20 weeks, as a result of a pregnancy complication. At the time, the loss was described as a miscarriage. . .She now says she had to make "difficult and heartbreaking" decisions after learning the child would not survive.

"It became very clear around halfway through that he would not survive, and that I wouldn't either without any medical intervention," Teigen explained. She said she had only recently come to accept the procedure as "an abortion to save my life for a baby that had absolutely no chance".
Teigen, who is married to singer John Legend, was speaking at a conference session in the wake of the US Supreme Court's recent decision to overturn the Roe vs Wade ruling, which has allowed states to block abortion access.

That's one way to look at it, but I think there's another that is likely closer to the mark: they didn't bother to try.

It's unusual, but sometimes a pregnancy *does* have to be terminated if the mother is to survive. Eclampsia comes immediately to mind.

But there is an alternative to abortion: delivery, by some means. "You will die if we don't get this baby out of you" is not the same thing as "you will die if we don't kill this baby." The baby *might* die. It might even be that the baby will *probably* die. But the right thing to do is to try to save both.

Look how quickly the story about a cartel gang in Aurora, CO has been back-burnered. The local and state governments have shutdown any discussion about it. Springfield wasn't able to. And the pet eating angle has legs. Cartel gangs taking over apartments occupied by illegals, not so much.

But it's a nation-wide issue that few are talking about. The amount of corruption in every level of government in this country is staggering.

Tulsi Gabbard is the only female and (formerly)Democrat woman politician that I think I would-if I were a male- see the appeal of being married to. She's not bad looking and she wised up about the Democrat party.

448 I can't find it anymore (maybe YouTube took it down?), but Jimmy Dore had a video up on the Haitian issues being reported. He showed an NPR clip from not long ago talking about all the Haitian migrants in Ohio. They toured some factory (I think in Springfield) with a manager saying 10% of the workforce was Haitian, and he loved them, because they showed up on time, worked hard their whole shift, etc, and he wished he had more.

453 An Israeli air attack on an underground missile factory in Syria was reported a few days ago. Now it turns out that the air attack was a diversion. Israel inserted special forces via helicopter, captured Iranians, took documents, then blew up the site from the ground.

The IDF continues to show the world how wars are won.

BTW, CNN, Sept. 12, 2024, in part, "The agreement settles a lawsuit brought by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in 2017, which claimed the company misled student loan borrowers and processed their payments incorrectly.

At the time, Navient – which was previously spun off from servicer Sallie Mae – was one of the biggest companies contracted by the Department of Education to service federal student loans."

>BBC, Vladimir Putin draws new red line on long-range missiles, hours ago.

It's getting worse, rather than better, and it's time to take measure of the profitability of the Russian-Ukraine debacle & how long it's going to continue, as many thousand die in & because of war and many thousand are also displaced (likely never to return), yet nothing else but profitability seems to matter. What's the driving force of the Masters? Constant re-arming, rebuilding, keeping bureaucracies working? At some point, it becomes (or has become) quite 1984-like, i.e.,

Reuters, EU official says Biden pause on US LNG exports will not hit supply short-term, February 13, 2024

Reuters, New west-east route keeps Europe hooked on Russian gas, April 3, 2024

Of course, all imo. Cont'd -

462 I love the absurdity of this from Harris -

"But that's not what we heard from Donald Trump. Instead, it was the same old tired playbook that we've hard for years with no plans for how he would address the needs of the American people because you know, it's all about him. It's not about you. Well, folks, I said it then, I say it now. It's time to turn the page that page. Thank you because to your point, America is ready for a new way forward. We are ready for a new generation of leadership that is optimistic about what we can do together. That is why democrats, republicans and independents are supporting our campaign. Over 200 people who worked for President George H.W. Bush, President George W. Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney have endorsed me for president, former vice president. Dick Cheney and Congresswoman Liz Cheney are supporting me as well because as they said, we have a duty as citizens to put country above partisanship and defend our constitution."

Thanks for the info. Lizzy.

Both of them are absolutely repulsive. I didn't think I could dislike them more but as they apparently used a much "lighter" story at the time of the alleged miscarriage & the msm sucked it up, it seems I still have room to grow.

Unfortunately, they're both wealthy and nuts.

Vibe, August 22, 2024, Prince Fans Question John Legend’s “Let’s Go Crazy” Rendition At Democratic National Convention
The Purple One is a hard act to follow, By Preezy Brown

In part, "John Legend‘s Prince tribute at the Democratic National Convention has been one of the most discussed musical moments of the evening, as the reaction to his performance has ranged from lackluster to complimentary."

And, "Legend’s appearance preceded that of Minnesota governor Tim Walz, who accepted the parties nomination for Vice President."

At least they got that timing right.
