The Morning Report

The Morning Report — 12/6/24

Good morning kids. Well, here's something different to start the day off, and yet tragically all too familiar, but not for any of the reasons you'll hear from the propagandists in the Leftist-controlled media complex.

Two kindergarteners were critically wounded when Glenn Litton, a monster with a long criminal record and apparent delusions, tricked his way into the school and then opened fire in a small California town.
Glenn Litton lied to gain access to the Feather River Seventh-Day Adventists school by claiming to be the grandfather of a prospective student before opening fire on the children.
The gunman wrote in a note that the shootings of children were “carried out countermeasure in necessitated response to America’s involvement with genocide and oppression of Palestinians along with attacks towards Yemen.”
The media emphasizes that Litton was mentally ill and I’m sure his sense of reality was probably none too grounded, but the note also makes it clear that he had been feeding off pro-terrorist propaganda on social media probably supplemented by media coverage.
Even apart from his recent support for Islamic terrorism, Litton was a poster boy for California’s revolving door criminal justice system.

Well, if I were say Joe Scarborough (God-forbid!), I'd say he'd have to be mentally ill. He should've shot up a synagogue. After all Netanyahu and his pal Trump are both literally Hitler. Doing this only gives Trump a talking point with which to attack us, the good guys, the defenders of our precious democracy!

This happened on the heels of what looks to my non-Kojak eyes as a targeted hit on the CEO of United Healthcare.

Hours after the killing, the NYPD held a press conference and made clear they believe the killing was targeted not random.
NYPD Chief of Detectives Joe Kenny pointed out that the suspect was wearing a “distinctive gray backpack,” black face mask, light brown jacket, and black and white sneakers. He said the suspect “[ignored] numerous other pedestrians,” approached Thompson from behind, and shot him in the back.
Breitbart News noted the suspect in Wednesday’s killing of Thompson allegedly left a message on shell casings which consisted of the words “Defend,” “Deny,” “Depose.”

There are reports that Thompson and other board members are under investigation for insider trading and other major frauds but given the nature of the aforementioned evidence at the scene, and the anti-capitalism of lefties is more likely what triggered this shooting or that the shooter had a personal grudge against the company. When these things elicit public expressions of glee from such psychos as Taylor Lorenz who has been experiencing her first episode of mittleschmerz for almost40 years, with no signs of stopping.

Her near orgasmic glee at the gunning down of this man, and of course the two attempts on Trump just tells you everything you need to know about the Left.

The sick irony here is that the insurance industry, like much of the healthcare industry was essentially completely devoured by the US government with the passage of Obamacare in 2010. So that only compounded their inherent, and primarily government-caused flaws prior to that date, via the vast bureaucratic garbage that lines the pockets of politicians, bureaucrats and go-along-to-get-along C-suite denizens in the aforementioned industries along with of course Big Pharma. Here's your fascism, Leftists, right here! Get it while it's hot. Pro-tip, it's not Trump. It's Democrats and RINOs pointing the gun of big government power at the head of business and forcing them in bed with them. Sadly, some don't need the threat and are eager to play the part of Alfred Krupp to the real literal Hitlers in this re-enactment of pre-1933 election Germany.

In part, Trump's agenda is the dismantling of this hideous, ravenous, gluttonous beast that is sucking the life, freedom and prosperity out of every honest, hard-working decent American. And to our great misfortune, the GOP-E is part of that multi-headed hydra and is working as hard as the Democrats to derail any chance Trump has of ending their reign of terror, error and venality at the public trough.

The key to that of course is derailing his cabinet nominees, among them some of his staunchest allies, not merely personal, but in terms of policy and politics, such as Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel.

Disposing of Collins, Murkowski, and every other miserable bastard RINO in both chambers of Congress should be considered crucial to draining the swamp, every bit as much as legislatively and via starving the bureaucracies of funds so they cannot continue their mission to preserve protect and defend the 100-year counter American Revolution.

Here's a very compelling essay from author D. Parker, at American Thinker. Can't disagree with a single thing. Yet like so many other authors, myself included, his title leaves us hanging on: "Burying Communism For Good." The multi-trillion dollar and multi-score million victims question gentle reader is of course "HOW?!"

As we have seen with the Left, its willingness and zeal with which it embraces political violence in order to advance its agenda of dissolution and destruction for total control (ditto their allies of convenience in Islam)

Remember, Billy Ayers, Barack Obama's neighbor, benefactor and political mentor/booster once claimed that when he Ayers an his band of Weatherman overthrew the US government, they would likely have to round up and liquidate upwards of 25 million dead-ender Americans who would refuse to bow down and submit to their new new-order, who Obama later referred to as "bitter clingers"

Force is the primary differentiating factor between communistic (or whatever) systems and those based on economic liberty. It's the only way those systems can work, and it’s the reason they need to finally be on the ash heap of history. Because in the 400 years of failure from the concepts that ‘have never really been tried before’ billions of people have been oppressed, and untold millions (we know that at least over 100 million) have been thrown into cattle cars, shipped to concentration camps and gulags, and murdered.
It's been 400 years of running the same experiment on something that “has never really been tried before” — over and over, in every country, and under every possible condition, and it’s failed to work every time. The result has been misery and mass murder. Experiments where a country has been divided, with economic liberty on one side, and socialistic slavery on the other. Where you could easily see which side was free by looking at which side of the wall had graffiti, and which side had anti-personnel mines with trip wires so sensitive that they needed an extra wire so birds wouldn’t set them off.It’s more than obvious that we must be rid of these ideologies, humanity can no longer afford their cost in lives and liberty.

As I commented at the end of the headline in the link: In order to bury Communism for good . . . We are probably going to have to literally bury several millions of Leftists to do it. What they have always had in mind for us. It's not pretty, but the truth seldom is.

Please note, I am NOT condoning anyone commit any unprovoked act of violence. But unless there is some non-violent and legal way to deprogram at least a third of the population and wrest control of Academia and the media for at least the next 50 years. Things are going to get ugly. As if you think they're ugly now!

Thanks and have a great weekend. And remember Pearl Harbor tomorrow, on the 83rd anniversary of the attack.

If draining the game of its remarkable character and making it dull is what Manfred is after, he should institute this rule. He is already embarked on introducing the participation-trophy everybody-wins ethic into the game, greatly expanding the playoff field until the postseason looks like the NCAA basketball tournament, enlarging the bases so that it’s harder to, you know, get somebody out, and generally tinkering in ways that drive those who loved the game as it was straight up the wall.

The Federal Judge overseeing the class action against Boeing has rejected a proposed settlement because the DOJ, as part of the deal, would choose a monitor of Boeing management policies.

This guy's confirmation hearings will be lit! He is an auctioneer by trade (he once filibustered on the floor of the house by calling auctioneer "cadence" for over an hour, IIRC.) He will be wildly entertaining, and he has the chops to really reform.

27 I’m disgusted by the reporting on the murder of the insurance executive in NYC. The MSM shows their ignorance of firearms and ammunition terminology. That speculation about a rare WW II pistol sounds like ignorant speculation by a self-appointed expert. The fuzzy video I could see seems to show a puff of smoke or vapor coming from ejection port of an autoloader on the first shot, followed by the clearing of a jam. The grip angle view of the sh00ter’s fingers doesn’t look like the speculated antique.

28 Dem Rep Goes On Unhinged Rant About ‘New White Seats’ In Texas During Hearing

It sucks that society has progressed to this point, but it's not surprising. Slippery slope and all that.

46 Glenn Litton lied to gain access to the Feather River Seventh-Day Adventists school by claiming to be the grandfather of a prospective student before opening fire on the children.

The gunman wrote in a note that the shootings of children were “carried out countermeasure in necessitated response to America’s involvement with genocide and oppression of Palestinians along with attacks towards Yemen.”

And he somehow thought this was the fault of the Seventh Day Adventists?

47 Jurors In Daniel Penny Case Review Crucial Video Evidence In Ongoing Deliberations

If there is a black person on the jury, the best outcome is going to be a hung jury, imo. Sad to say, but the truth is that the vast majority of black people will take revenge on a white person in a criminal case like this. Innocence or guilt from a legal standpoint doesn't even factor into it. Maybe I'm wrong. I've been known to be a wee bit cynical...

I’ve been astonished for at least 30 years now how supposedly educated people can hold the notion the Army cannot be used at our borders. Yet - that same Army can be deployed in un-declared Wars for decades - around the world - and protect their borders.

The law was intended to prevent the military from being used as law enforcement against Americans.

The good news: Ernst obviously feeling the heat from Trump world has started to backpedal saying she just wants a “full and fair vetting” or some such BS. She obviously got signals from Trump’s corner to back off or find herself in the big man’s sights (in a bad way for her)

Mostly, this is because of the rules instituted during the covid op. Many federal offices sent people home, mine did. Then, once the various facilities realized how much they saved on heating, A/C, water, rent, etc. they were, like, "hey... we can take all this extra money and grift our every lovin' hearts out."

Because not one federal office, department, bureau saw any sort of reduction in their budget as a result of people "working from home."

I think that's why the whole "work from home" thing persists.

Whether the feds are actually doing anything productive is debatable. Since we're still being screwed daily by them, some employees must be doing something....

118 ||Gunman Glenn Litton Attempted ‘Child executions’ at California Christian school in response to “America’s involvements in genocide & oppression of Palestinians” authorities say

Authorities in Butte County have identified the gunman who staged an attack Wednesday on a Christian elementary school that left two children wounded and ended with the attacker dead.

On Thursday afternoon, Sheriff Kory Honea identified the shooter as Glenn Litton, 56. He described Litton as a homeless, mentally ill man with a long criminal record who targeted the school due to its affiliation with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the scene of the attack.

Authorities found a statement by Litton saying that “child executions” were imposed at the school in response to “America’s involvements in genocide and oppression of Palestinians” and attacks in Yemen.||

Any "Republicans" who stand in opposition to the Trump administration should never be given our votes or our FINANCIAL support again.

219 Transgender activists broadcast their intrusive takeover of two women’s bathrooms on Capitol Hill on December 5.

The transgender takeover marked an escalation by the mostly male movement in their campaign to demand access to spaces that are used by women to guard their sexual privacy and career opportunities in a diverse society.

The intrusions were done by two groups. One took over a bathroom in the Capitol Hill Visitor Center, and the other group occupied a bathroom in a hallway of a building used for the representatives’ offices.

The second group included Chelsea Manning, a former soldier who claimed transgender status after being convicted in 2013 for leaking secret military information during the Iraq War.

I stopped watching the NFL for an entire year because of the kneeling but then I decided: why should I allow their idiocy to remove entertainment and pleasure from my life. I went back to watching…. I enjoy it, it’s relaxing… they don’t get any dollars from me (I don’t buy merchandise or attend games in person) so I get enjoyment (and nostalgia) they get nothing.

I’ve noticed the quality of the game has gone down. Way too many rules… refs get way too much screen time. Too many penalties and replays. But I still enjoy it. I like college better I think…. My Alma mater might even win the Big 12!!

231 It seems every leftist American politician who trades to Africa over the past fifteen years feels the need to apologize for America’s “Original Sin”.

The last one I can remember doing it was Nancy Pelosi while she was Speaker and Trump was president.

They all pretend that slavery never existed before America “invented” it in their minds, because it’s useful politically to them, at home & abroad.

I don’t see Muslim leaders going around Europe apologizing for their ancestors capturing and enslaving every Caucasian girl they could get their hands on.

I don’t see Mexicans going around apologizing for their ancestor Aztecs enslaving every opposing tribe they came across.

Nope, the only people who I see apologizing for common practices of the entire human species going back thousands of years are leftist Western politicians who have made an art form out of performative regret and apology for events that happened hundreds of years ago.

They do the same thing over “Colonialism”.

The greatest hallmark of the modern international left is the constant guilt-trip politics they play merely to keep their diverse electorates, that they themselves create, together in shared victimhood.

Authors here have discussed that getting published by a company is almost impossible unless you have a black gay woman or similar main character.

It was just a few months ago that people were discussing sci-fi book awards and how the winners were all weird woke crap. Because it has to be if you want to be published or see any financial success or contracts outside of self-publishing.

I suspect it is tied to the Blackrock / Vanguard DEI funding that was exposed a few years ago. Remember that? You aren't going to get daily operating cost loans if you don't do what we want, and we want gay.

We are probably going to have to literally bury several millions of Leftists to do it.

Think back to how ubiquitous public smoking was forty years ago.

Regardless of what anyone thinks of why or how it happened, we somehow managed to ban smoking and make smokers pariahs without much (any?) bloodshed.

As ugly as this sounds, we need to stop treating leftism as an alternative viewpoint with any merit and banish it from the public sphere.

There is no merit to leftism. It is bait that is so irresistible to too many minds that it has repeatedly raised armies of useful idiot pawns for tyrants seeking power.

It's a crying shame that the Prussians had a series of good kings with "Frederick" in their names for the entire eighteenth century. Had it not been for that aberration, we would have been righteously burning these asshole leftists at the stake for the witches they are.

275 White students are falling out of higher education more quickly than any other racial group, and recent data suggests that middle- and upper-income white students are skipping college at a higher rate than their lower-income peers. That flies in the face of entrenched narratives about more-affluent white students following a well-marked path to college. Experts can only speculate about why it might be happening. The enrollment declines are coming from the country’s more affluent neighborhoods, and the more affluent the neighborhoods, the steeper the decline, on average.

286 Fitch Ratings anticipates a deteriorating credit environment for U.S. public finance higher education in 2024 relative to 2023. Uneven enrollment dynamics, rising competitive pressures and continuing margin pressures will challenge credit factors across the sector. Public funding has flattened as states return to normalized budgetary means following the pandemic, and net tuition growth prospects are modest at best. This revenue trajectory is unlikely to be sufficient to fully offset still-elevated labor and wage costs, rising capital needs and a sharply uncertain legislative landscape.

I haven't watched Prophecy yet, but it's not like a show all about the Bene Gesserit is out of alignment with the Dune universe.

Heck, Heretics and Chapterhouse are almost entirely about the sisterhood with the Atreides being effectively gone thousands of years into the future.

It's kind of custom-built for modern gender obsessed creatives to not mess with the audience by doing it. And it's always been a female only organization that has shadowy power over male power figures like emperors.

299 Stanford Review: The first two categories are the buckets of questions that I have. So I’ll move on to my first question about Stanford’s educational and political climate at the present moment. In one of my classes, I was randomly assigned a partner to work on a presentation together. He told me that he had not read a book, cover to cover since the third grade, let alone at Stanford. In June, he will graduate with a degree from Stanford. How is this possible?

President Levin: Have you read a book at Stanford?

Stanford Review: I actually have. I’ve read fifty. I’ve counted. Probably at sixty now.

President Levin: I can’t speak to the particular student you worked with and exactly the way he or she has approached things. I think it’s a missed opportunity if you go through Stanford without doing a lot of reading, because at least in many fields, that’s the way to learn. Now, some fields, it’s true at Stanford, you learn in different ways that aren’t necessarily from books, but you know, I certainly would hope that any student who came to Stanford would spend a lot of time reading and thinking and reflecting. So I think it’s a missed opportunity

377 If I recall my history correctly, I believe FDR, among his other New Deal sins along with the war, implemented a Maximum Wage. Not just a minimum, but the most you could be paid per hour or salaried.

So if you worked at Company A, were unhappy with your recompense for the work you were doing, and Company B was hiring? Same pay, different boss. No way to actually get ahead, since the government was preventing you from actually earning more without spending more of your limited time on earth in overtime (except they probably didn't have overtime bonuses).

So how could other companies poach away useful employees to get more productive? Non-monetary benefits. Sure, they couldn't pay you an extra nickel per hour.

But they could offer health benefits, like insurance.

That's how the cake got baked. Big fatcat Democrats pushing down the scale, plugging up the works. And people had to get creative in working around the damage. The idea of health insurance as a non-payment benefit to get employees they needed ended up becoming tied to working at a job for someone else.

People decry needing to work for someone to live and not worry about if they get sick. The government did that.

411 I'm conflicted. I have been enjoying the mockery of aged crone Taylor Lorenz, but it may border on cruelty to make fun of her as a nursing home resident.

Well, she's 50, so I guess she's ready for the nursing home.

414 Good morning, all, and thank you, J.J.

Disturbing but also a bit amusing to me, as it's on the line of a sometimes nik, If they'll do it with you, they'll do it to you, too & it also concerns a posh local college & community.

Some background: The Electronic Intifada, 'Students Vote to Divest at Brown, Swarthmore' by Nora Barrows-Friedman. Activism and BDS Beat, 2 April 2019.

In part, "In a historic move, Brown University in Rhode Island has become the first US Ivy League institution to pass a student referendum supporting divestment from companies complicit in Israel’s human rights violations.

The Brown vote follows a similar divestment resolution passed by the student government at Swarthmore College in early March."

It goes on, back & forth, between the students and the administrations for years, of course. Many progressive colleges & universities have followed similar paths.

415 >WITHIN MONTHS: iqna dot ir/en/news (International Quran News Agency), Oct. 30, 2024: 'Swarthmore Faces Allegations of Discrimination Against Muslim Students' IQNA – Swarthmore College is facing a federal complaint over allegations of discrimination against Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim students, filed by CAIR-Philadelphia and other advocacy groups.

>The Phoenix, Independent Newspaper of Swarthmore College, 'CAIR Visits Swarthmore to Discuss Discrimination on Campuses, November 21, 2024, Melanie Zelle

In part, "On Monday, Nov. 18, leaders from the Philadelphia chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) gave a presentation contextualizing the Title VI complaint they filed on Oct. 31. The complaint alleges a widespread culture of discrimination against Arab, Muslim, and Palestinian students, and was the subject of an email response sent out to the campus community from President Val Smith’s office just hours before the CAIR presentation was scheduled to begin. Ahmet Selim Tekelioglu, the executive director of CAIR Philadelphia and a lead presenter, noted the email’s timing wryly, saying, “I understand you all received an email today welcoming us to campus.”...

BTW, it should be known that ^ is the 2nd Title VI complaint filed against Swarthmore College during the calendar year. Pl. see:

February 16, 2024, Re: Title VI Complaint against Swarthmore College.... (National Origin - Jewish)

It began, "I am writing to you as a journalist deeply concerned about anti-semitism at this university since October 7, 2023."
...
"Therefore, I ask the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights to conduct an immediate investigation of Swarthmore."

Swarthmore notified students of the 1st complaint ^ on March 8, 2024: 'Department of Education Title VI Investigation'
---
Both complaints are available online & reading both in entirety is suggested. But where was the msm for the 1st, I wonder.

The Left "...to advance its agenda of dissolution and destruction for total control." Indeed.

Wish all a good weekend. 🙏

417 The sick irony here is that the insurance industry, like much of the healthcare industry was essentially completely devoured by the US government with the passage of Obamacare in 2010.

That almost sounds apologetic toward the insurance industry -- but who is it who wrote Obamacare? Oh, the Dems porked it up past the gills, but the fundamental legislation was the dream sheet of medical insurance, fully giving them a mandate, enforceable under the law, that everyone MUST use their product.

The insurance industry was not devoured by Obamacare; they set the friggin' table for it.

418 On the subject of Biden lamenting America's "original sin of slavery" in Angola, maybe he ought to chastise the Portuguese. They colonized Angola, and at least half of the slaves in the West African trade went to Brazil.

few of the images aren't loading correctly. I'm not sure why but I think
its a linking issue. I've tried it in two different browsers and both show the same outcome.
