Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Thread before the Gardening Thread, October 26Too Many Stories - Trump is Hitler One of our challenges, and one of the challenges for the "other side" right now is that there are so many stories that it is hard for people to focus. Do you ever feel this? Take the "Trump is Hitler" theme in The Atlantic: It is entirely reasonable to think that this was planned as part of a larger psy-op rolling out over several days to justify violence at some point in time if "necessary". James Carville had just threatened insurrection and nobody much seemed to notice. (Piece also touches on some stories you may have missed.) But then the LA Times and the Washington Post refused to endorse Kamala, even though she had confirmed that she was running against Hitler. And Joe Rogan didn't seem to be afraid of Hitler, either. Kind of undercut Kamala's speech and The Atlantic's stories. Let's be unburdened by what has been, okay wokesters? Let's not boycott Amazon Prime to show that we disapprove of WaPo's insufficient hatred of Hitler! We wouldn't want to be like those stupid MAGA types who do boycotts, would we? Okay, maybe we could petition them to change their motto to something that doesn't mention democracy dying in the dark. Maybe something like "What can be, unburdened by what has been". Let's go really Marxist! And maybe Jennifer Rubin could resign. The Economy I think the big story for the weekend was supposed to be that 23 Nobel Prize Winners said that Kamala's economic plan was better than Trump's. At least Friday is when my lefty "friends" on social media picked it up. I have a hard time imagining that all those Nobel Prize Winners really think that taxing unrealized capital gains is going to expand the economy. What an accounting nightmare! Among other drawbacks. I don't know if that made it into Kamala's final written proposal, but her values remain the same, as she repeatedly says. I'm not sure Trump has completely explained his economic plan for the eggheads. Here's one rundown on tariffs, via the 9/26 Morning Report. A Penn-Wharton analysis is also at odds with the 23 letter signers. There have been some problems in the past with tariffs. Bush did a steel tariff which didn't work out. But Trump is not the only one for whom tariffs have worked. For Trump, tariffs have been a negotiating tool, as described by a fellow billionaire. He used tariffs to negotiate the "remain in Mexico" policy, for example. Tariffs were not permanent. Tariffs were a bargaining chip. The story of the eloquent billionaire who described this perspective on tariffs, is remarkable. He lost a brother and employees on 9/11.On the morning of September 11th, 2001, I was taking my son to his first day of kindergarten. My phone kept ringing and disconnecting. I later learned it was my brother Gary trying to call to say goodbye. Cantor Fitzgerald was located on the 101st to the 105th floors of the World Trade Center. We lost 658 people that day, including my brother Gary, who was 36, and my best friend Doug, who was 39. I promised to take care of all the families. They became part of my family. Over the next five years, Cantor Fitzgerald gave the families $180 million and paid for their healthcare for 10 years. Today, the purpose of @CantorRelief is to take care of people who are in need.AMERICA!

They don’t actually have the command and control to launch anything that coordinated, even if some of them wish they did. There’s a great essay on substack, linked on X, by a poster calling himself Bennett's Phylactery. His thesis is: “We've seen a lot of Vulgar Displays of Power in the last few years (COVID, BLM, Epstein, the steal, etc) But they never seem to go anywhere, because USG is not a human institution with goals - it is a fungus.” In other words, the radical Left is huge, and powerful, and invasive, and terrifying. But it has no intelligence, and routinely makes errors that anyone could avoid with even a little bit of thought. (Like nominating Kamala) Worth finding and reading.

Institutionally, official economics has been captured by the Left, along with everything else.

This one guy in Phoenix is not a citizen, but a legal resident. He renewed his license. Then shortly after he got a voter registration card in the mail. He wrote to the elections board and said I’m not a citizen, I can’t be registered. He was ignored. He even filled out a form to in-register. It was never processed.
So he called a local news station and they ran his story. The news station asked for comment from Maricopa County. They said no comment while they are “investigating”. In other words fuck off and let us steal this election for Harris will ya? Posted by: Settled Science at October 26, 2024 11:42 AM (4GhDa) 35

Because economics is not a real science. Just a bunch of fucks who understand statistics a bit, but their understanding cause-and-effect is nil. The fact that there are communist economists is a clue; we've had well over a hundred years of empirical data showing communist economic policies are pure shit, but yet they persist.

Virginia has the names of the noncitizens they wanted to purge from the voter roles. And they should know where they live and, therefore, what precincts they would vote at. So send a list of the names to each precinct and wait with cops to arrest them for voter fraud if they show up and try to vote. Ditto if they try to mail them in.

I will say though, Trump has done a shit job laying out his tax plans and telling voters Harris will raise their taxes by not renewing the Trump tax cuts. Taxes should have been front and center instead of just obvious gimmicks that aren't going to actually become law. First it was no tax on tips, than no tax on overtime, no tax for firefighters, getting rid of SALT limits, now no income taxes at all. You start losing credibility.

You ever notice how the ones who love abortion the most are the ones who were never aborted?
A leftist Oregon politician is running an ad explaining that she was pregnant, but the fetus had no heartbeat, so an "abortion was the right decision".

Wife and I no longer work for a living but I think a winning policy would be to exempt the first $20,000 of a lesser earning spouses earnings from taxation. Call it 'Make work pay'. I'm thinking of spouses who work part time to keep credentials current while kids are little, or are caring for elderly parent.

Posted by: BurtTC at October 26, 2024 12:58 PM (0aVwl) -------- Yea, I get that. I would think (hope) Trump has "matured" in this area and will take a different tact with it. In the last election he relied too much on politicians and/or politically affiliated people who guided him away from a confrontation. How that would have panned out? Who knows.

You're seriously comparing Trump to Kamala? That's a take, I guess. It was a 3 hour conversation. Rambling and drifting at times, but overall, I found it entertaining.
Posted by: Duke Lowell at October 26, 2024 12:59 PM (2UnvF) Well, they're both hominids, so there's room for comparison. In this case though, all I'm saying is, I listened to the first 10 minutes or so, and he was rambling. He didn't answer the question Rogan asked, and it's rather odd that he didn't. After a while, with Trump explaining the Civil War, Rogan says "we know all that, what I'm asking though is how YOU felt, in those first days as President," and all Trump could say was "it was surreal," and then went back to rambling.

Who wants LOL's? malaka went on Rogan's podcast -- watch this before Youtube yeets it: https://is.gd/4wDVDX Posted by: Soothsayer at October 26, 2024 02:24 PM (hKYgG) 244
Barron's savvy in helping his dad get on the right podcasts to court the gen z/millennial vote was a savvy move. Bravo Baron.
Will listen to the Rogan podcast today! It's racking up views, good for both of them. Will cement the male vote for him. Hope Kamala has extra wine stored up today for cope drinking. The news that Kamala, the green new deal queen, has broken the world record for shortest flight... taking one from Andrews Air Force base to Reagan, only three miles... sounds too ridiculous to be true. But I get it, that beltway traffic is murder! I'm sure everyone there wishes they could take a plane to work. Posted by: LizLem at October 26, 2024 02:34 PM (QAK8m) 245
The president described to Rogan what it was like to be president on the first day. He told Rogan a story about seeing the Lincoln Bedroom for the first time, and the story included General Robert E. Lee being a bane to Lincoln. Rogan said and now they're going to say you were praising Robert E. Lee. The president nodded and said, "I know." Then the two men moved on to another topic.

leb explained on the ONT last night that "she's the kind of Jew who gives Jews a bad name." Didn't know Jews had a "bad name" until leb trotted that out. I submit leb is the WORST kind of troll. His goal is to post enough antisemitic garbage so that Wiki and others can cite HIS posts to support the proposition that "AoS is a right wing political site, which promotes overt antisemitism in its comments section."

Posted by: AmericanKestrel at October 26, 2024 11:53 AM ---- Recently I was having a discussion with a person that is very religious, and I asked him about the line in the Lords Prayer about lead us not into themtation, but dellver us from evil. I did not understand, as of course God would not lead us to temptation! He said we are led into temptation when we feel that any challenge is beyond the ability of God to deliver us from. It makes sense!! We will all pray for her. A Posted by: Chillin the most at October 26, 2024 03:19 PM (AhKLt) 257

When it rains, it pours... for the DEMs:
Lots of chatter today about how Trump has taken the lead in the average of RCP national polls-- something which is literally unprecedented.* Overlooked is that the GOP now also leads in the "generic Congressional" vote. The GOP is ahead in that too. Think about it: EVEN WITH CA & NY included, more voters say they're likely to vote Republican. If the RCP generic aggregate of all polls is accurate, that means the GOP holds the House, imo. The GOP is already guaranteed to take the Senate... unless the DEMs can beat Ted Cruz in TX! If the DEMs were to flip the House, Trump would have to go fish as far as passing anti-illegal alien legislation. And pretty much everything else, too. I realize the "GOP-controlled" House has been a disappointment to us. But it will seem like the Good Ole Days after 2-4 years of Speaker Jeffries. *(excepting only the time period between the Biden-Trump debate and Biden's withdrawal) Posted by: mnw at October 26, 2024 03:31 PM (NLIak) 259
Voted yesterday, flipping through the candidates - Only R's -
Every vote is for a Republican. Every Republican is important all the way down to City Councilman and Dog Catcher. Trump must have full community support in order to overcome the Democrat machine. That Democrat machine is in your city, in your precinct, that's where it begins, that's where it's nurtured. Nip it in the bud. Posted by: Braenyard at October 26, 2024 03:42 PM (pdiue) 260

Thanks as always, KT! I just read that Douglas Murray essay. It was really illuminating, a great piece on something (Arendt's quote) that I have never really been exposed to beyond the meaning she intended. In fact I have always found the "banality of evil" to be a deep and instructive idea. Mr. Murray is here thorough and thoughtful, a recommended read.

Adolph Eichmann was many things, but he sure as hell wasn't BANAL! His rank was kept artificially low, to avoid attracting attention. He was handpicked by Himmler & Heydrich to organize and command the vast SS Holocaust machine. Arendt attended Eichmann's trial in Jerusalem. She somehow fell hook, line, & sinker for Eichmann's preposterous claim that he was just a minor functionary, i.e., that he was just "a little cog in a big machine."

Senator Fetterman elaborated:
I was doing an event in Indiana County. Very, very red. And there was a superstore of Trump stuff, and it was a hundred feet long, and it was dozens of T-shirts and hats and bumper stickers and all kinds of, I mean, it’s like, Where does this all come from? It’s the kind of thing that has taken on its own life. And it’s like something very special exists there. And that doesn’t mean that I admire it. It’s just — it’s real. And now [Elon] Musk is joining him. I mean, to a lot of people, that’s Tony Stark. That’s the world’s richest guy. And he’s obviously, and undeniably, a brilliant guy, and he’s saying, Hey, that’s my guy for president. That’s going to really matter. Posted by: SMOD at October 26, 2024 05:27 PM (GITLP) 267

After the war we kill the agents of the infection, the source, the leaders. It's not new, it's historic. The set up for the execution changes with the politics of the era but it's always done.
