The Morning Report — 9/ 14 /26

Good morning kids. Hope you all had a pleasant, relaxing weekend as we paused to reflect and remember the horrific attack on America 25 years ago last Friday. In many ways we are still dealing with both the root cause and the political/cultural reverberations of 9/11, as we'll delve into in a moment.

But for now I and my fellow sane residents of my state of Wisconsin are breathing a sigh of relief.

“God was watching over us tonight.” That’s how Wisconsin Republican gubernatorial nominee Tom Tiffany described surviving a plane crash Saturday night that ended with him swimming out of a sinking aircraft in Lake Wausau. . . An experience like this reminds you just how precious life is.”

Of course, Madison being one of the evil wellsprings from whence the toxic poison of progressivism emerged and continues to rot away at Wisconsin but the entire nation, as it was an epicenter of the 2020 election theft. Hoping and praying that this incident was perhaps a harbinger of good things and miracles come November for my home state and for the nation as a whole.

And all things considered, we as a nation and society are going to need a run of miracles if we are to survive.

Yeah, elections sure do have consequences. Given the moribund state of the Republican Party in New York City, two socialists, Darializa Avila-Chevalier and Claire Valdez, are virtually certain to enter the House of Representatives next January, and they’re already excitedly making plans for the damage they’re going to do to the nation’s largest city, and the nation as a whole, once they get there... Now, why would a couple of socialists, one of whom (Avila-Chevalier) is a convert to Islam, want to deny the city that sustained the largest jihad terror attack in the history of this country funding to protect itself from further such attacks? Avila-Chevalier has so much contempt for the United States that on Dec. 23, 2019, she wrote: “I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me.” She followed this message with a happy-face emoji.

Well, I'm no longer a resident of New York City and State so that's a minor miracle, at least for now given the Democrats' virtual stranglehold on the Badger State. Then again, sooner or later there may be no place left for any of us to run and hide.

Shelly Headen is running for North Carolina House of Representatives District 62. She believes that Trump supporters belong in Dachau’s crematoria, like Jews during WWII. She posed in front of a backdrop of the actual ovens. Shelly was smiling. She has made similar comments that advocate for attacks on U.S. soil and violence against political opponents. She loves her violence. There is a 2024 Guilford County Sheriff’s Office incident report identifying Headen as a suspect in domestic physical assaults. One alleged assault was against her husband. Now she’s apologizing for her social media posts but also says she doesn’t recall making them. It’s a case of I didn’t do it, but I apologize for it. With some of her posts now deleted, we don’t know the full scope of her malice.

Posing in front of Dachau and wishing your political opponents, who are viewed as an existential threat to life, the planet and "democracy" are shoved into the gas chambers. Considering what happened to poor Charlie Kirk, what nearly happened on at least three separate occasions to President Trump and what happened to America's cities in the summer of 2020 and to churches, synagogues, schools and individuals at the hands of anti-semites, transexuals and abortionists for years now, I take these fiends at their word. The dehumanizing verbiage against us makes it that much easier to hurl the molotov cocktails and bricks, pull the triggers and ultimately send us to the ovens as this evil subhuman slag from North Carolina, and far too many like her in and out of office desire.

On these and all the other horrendous news we have, I bid you all to have a good day.

40 I came across some self described "conservative watchdogs" on the socials who claim Shelly Headen is clinically insane.

She's the one running for office in NC.

True or not, there's increasing evidence to support that many now seeking office are, in fact, mentally ill. And many are, not surprising, women.

Make of that what you will. Inmates running the asylum is, apparently, real life.

I started seeing this story come out over the weekend and while I'm thoroughly numbed by the Left's sickening and demonic nature, I have to admit I was stunned at this woman and what she said. It's so unconscionable, it's hard to believe it's real. There isn't an asylum big enough to hold all of these mad dogs. And the picture of her at Dachau, in front of the ovens...SMILING like she's at some roadside park scenic view is simply unbelievable. Just u-n-r-e-a-l.

Theoretically? There have been dozens of cases, so far, and the people with the power to look further into the matter haven't even started to do so. Every power, every tool, given to the government is not only theoretically possible to abuse, they've all been abused. Every single one.

It's already over $1.2 million. But you just have to see the "artwork" for the page and prepare to be sickened. It's unbelievable! Poor Lindsay Clancy, head down, hands covering her weeping face, as she's surrounded by women in solidarity, holding hands in a circle of support. I...I...just have no words for these crazy women.

Different rules, I'm sure. But most retail stores have a sign in the window. Flock doesn't. I'm not sure if the pressure should be directed at Flock (and the like) or at the municipal entities putting them up.

I worry about our government more than Islamics. All the actions about COVID-19 Wuhan killed and damaged many more people. They are unpunished actions. The inner decision makers that planned this out wanted us very dead, and are planning again.

You need to worry about both. Government Deep Staters plan on using the Musloids to oppress the people of the US. Go to Europe, it becomes apparent. It is a trick old enough that Aristotle describes it, if one is losing a conflict, the best way is to broaden it.

And the left circa Reagan was losing the internal conflict, thus they decided to go abroad to bring in people that would support their view from the Third World where tribalism ruled. Same sort of thing in the Western European democracies.

Oppressing and bankrupting the locals is a job fit for rootless low iq migrants who are often criminals themselves fleeing justice. Leftists really will rule by any means possible even it it reduces society to a dung heap.

I think the worst part of that whole thing is, the more they speak out, the more you realize they had no understanding what the trial was for and what they were determining.

They actually think were they to grant a not-guilty verdict, she would go free and that's absolutely not the case.

They weren't trying her for murder. She already confessed to murdering those three beautiful children. They were only determining whether she was mentally competent at the time of the murders.

She's still going to a mental institution and is not free to roam.

Living life online via social media (younger generations) or vicariously by watching tv (older generations) instead of being out and around leads to being led by lies, half truths, and lies by omission.

We have destroyed the social fabric of society by living vicariously instead of by real life experiences with fellow humans and this has hollowed out our understanding of others into symbols, slogans, and caricatures that we can manipulate from the safety of our bubble.

Same reason that literature, movies, art, have taken a dive. They no longer reflect much of anything real but instead the internal fantasies of a shut in. No wonder our politics are rancid in the West.

Also think it comes from how the Left have gone out of their way to silence any opposing ideas/values. Cancel culture, social media censorship, cutting off friends in family over a single issue, etc.. so that even in the few remaining areas where interesting discussions could happen, they are cut off.

Would but have duties and health issues. First duty is to my declining mother who is in memory care for vascular dementia and now apparently the facility she is in is not delivering great care to her. So I have to make a trip to deal with it or move her. Sister that lives in the same town is literally checked out on the issue.

And the other problem is cost right now. Looking at an endoscopy for a dog that runs about 3K. We have a consult at the state veterinary college because the local vets simply cannot diagnose what is going on. And that requires another trip/stay in the same time frame as going on a long trip for issues with my mother. Recovering from major back surgery is pretty hard already from this spring--function is returning via pt but the pains have not went away as it simply redirected the stress on the upper back to lower damaged vertebrae. Takes about a year to return to somewhat normal according to docs.

As my wife who is employed while I retired would have to drive and take off work, she simply does not have the days nor the ability to shepherd me and flying alone is simply not an option anymore.

217 Feds Expand Criminal Probe Into Newsom Travel, Spending

Federal prosecutors have expanded their criminal investigation into Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom, issuing subpoenas for six years of records covering his international travel, outside funding, and personal expenses, including money spent on his residence and living costs. Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael D. Anderson signed the subpoenas, which concern a criminal investigation in the Eastern District of California.

PJ is a warning sign. Essentially he gave in probably to maintain peace with his neighbors and wife/family. And you see this pattern often enough in GOP politicians--their spouses and children go left and the pol follows them.

That is because the entire education and social apparatus of the US is explicitly leftist--from Art, Theatre, Movies, pop culture commentary magazines like the Atlantic, universities, and our most prominent city life such as Washington and NYC/LA/etc.

To be other than leftist in elite circles requires so much mental effort, strain, and personal cost, it is no wonder that most submit even those who in their salad days were critical of the left.

It is always produces the most fake and gay overexuberance to join the holloi polloi. Mike Appfel, Bruce's early manager who got fired to be replaced by red diaper baby, Jon Landau, mentioned he thought Bruce had the talent to become a memorable artist, instead Bruce wanted to be a Star with fame and riches. And that meant kissing the ass of the liberal establishment which he did right after hiring Landau.

They didn’t worry about bureaucratic red tape, nobody played that shit. Water walkers and “mistakes were made” types were immediately fired. It’s a study in how government can do great things, if it wants to.

264 Perhaps JJ might consider adding a regular feature to the MR showing the number of elapsed days since there was a legit Cocaine Mitch sighting. Kinda like the American hostages in Iran .

Love that idea. The only drawback to losing him is that Beshear will appoint some crazy Democrat to Mitch's term.

Thank you.

It's been an incredible saga since she died. This last week, some of the waters I travel on got smoother, and I are no longer canoeing down Class 4 rapids every day.

Her love shaped and improved me, so I can surf the storm swells.

We do live in an extraordinary time in an exceptional nation. We forget how unhistorical having power based on individual citizens really is.

Sometimes I imagine the USA of A as a top, spinning rapidly. The top can look like it will fall over, yet it returns to an upright axis.

We do have cause for concern, but we have reasons to hope as well.

267 Add in "hates cocktail parties" and you've nailed me.
Posted by: Huck Follywood

Cocktail parties I hate. Had to attend enough faculty socials and political dinners to see enough of that fake shit where people try to fit in. Seen vicious snobbery at them and the absurd fakery in social interactions is beyond belief all based on materialism and social class markers. I usually ended up watching other people attending and listen mostly, commenting little.

I'd imagine soirees above my pay grade in arts or high finance would be even worse.

268 It's obvious they're being played, but they can't seem to figure it out.

Somebody once pointed out it’s easier to fool people than convince them they’ve been fooled.

The neat thing though, the normal folks are the cool kids. It’s the whack jobs that are the uptight squares that can’t deal. They can’t cope, makes them dangerous, but still.

269 So did Mitch address the convention or not?

How appropriate that a do-nothing congress (at a time when our survival is on the line) is led by a guy who probably is no longer even alive.

The left enacts insane crap when in power, then we vote for the opposition, and they do nothing.

I didn't say what the polls were. I said we had poll trolls touting that Trump would lose. You were probably one of them. You are boring.

The ultimate description of the Pandora's box myth. And it fits with Christianity and Logos. There is always hope in the darkest night and there is always darkness in the most glowing of epochs.

I have hope for a better world and belief in a faith that can save me. I have fears that the sacrifices of all of my forefathers did to create this nation might be in vain and that the West itself become cast down into the darkness of Islam and vicious amorality of communism 2.0.
