Much as Chief Justice John Roberts would like to be the finger down the Deep State’s throat to trigger the up-chucking of Mr. Trump from the nation’s gullet, it looks like he won’t get his chance in the new 6-3 disposition of the US Supreme Court. So far, it is Justice Samuel Alito in the lead, preparing a landing zone for the President’s case against the state of Pennsylvania in its shabby-ass attempt to stuff its ballot boxes with iffy mail-in votes. I believe that case is going to be heard, and Justice Roberts’ position will be moot.

The problem over in PA is that its Act 77 bill passed before the election by the state legislature to expand absentee balloting (i.e., mail-in voting) did not comply with the PA state constitution, and required a constitutional amendment, which never happened. Could be pretty cut-and-dried. While the SCOTUS is thought to be reluctant to intervene in state constitutional issues, a case involving federal elections may prove an exception. And then there are other issues with the states of Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, and Arizona. A lot of electoral votes there.

The virtual takeover of US elections by the Dominion vote tabulation company was a stealth operation probably enabled by the connivance of scores of elected officials at both the federal and state levels — senators, congressmen, governors, and on down. It’s been going on for years due to the secrecy of the op and the complacency of the public, with a little help from the Democratic Party’s friends in the news media. Did money change hands? Potential criminal violations abound.

What on earth was Canada-based Dominion, with its grotty Smartmatic software — connected to Venezuela and to George Soros’s would-be world-changing Open Society Foundation, and very possibly to China’s ruling party — doing in charge of counting our votes? Perhaps serving something other than America’s national interest. We’ll soon find out in a way that will make a lot of heads explode.

An awful lot has been churning in the deep background for months before the election. Mr. Trump was onto the mass write-in vote scam enabled by the media-assisted hysteria over Covid-19. The wheels of genuine US intel against national security threats still turned in spite of whatever Deep State perfidy had been aimed at Mr. Trump himself from Day One in office, and the president made use of his own private counter-intel hackers to suss out the game — which was finally to overthrow him by ballot fraud. The result was Executive Order 13848 issued in September 2020, which specified foreign interference in elections as “an unusual and extraordinary threat to national security” and laid out some pretty stringent remedies.

The main one was a requirement for the top executive agencies — DOJ, DOD, Homeland Security, Treasury plus the Director of National Intelligence (Mr. Ratcliffe) — to deliver an assessment within 45 days of the election. We’re now in the sweet-spot of that 45-day delivery period when something has to pop. Looks a little like the AG, Mr. Barr, has been dithering and wriggling painfully over this, and even making noises about resigning. But he may have already surrendered his credibility, with the foot-dragging of the FBI under Christopher Wray and the agency’s apparent lack of interest in election fraud. The consequences of EO 13848 will roll out with him or without him.

The real action was over at the Department of Defense, where the President hastily cleaned house this fall and installed the trustworthy Christopher Miller as SecDef, along with top aide Kash Patel and Ezra Cohen-Watnick as Acting Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security. Mr. Cohen-Watnick had been an assistant to General Michael Flynn, former Director of Defense Intelligence, in his brief tenure as National Security Advisor before getting sandbagged by Barack Obama and James Comey.

Both Mr. Cohen-Watnick and General Flynn are intimately familiar with the apparatus of Defense Intelligence, of course, and have been actively using it to identify DNC and Joe Biden activists who played a role in election irregularities as well as foreign actors. This wasn’t any RussiaGate type bullshit; it was the real deal. EO 13848 includes this provision:

The report shall identify any material issues of fact with respect to these matters that the Attorney General and the Secretary of Homeland Security are unable to evaluate or reach agreement on at the time the report is submitted. The report shall also include updates and recommendations, when appropriate, regarding remedial actions to be taken by the United States Government, other than the sanctions described in sections 2 and 3 of this order.”

The “remedial actions” are interesting. They include pretty severe sanctions against any “persons” (entity or company) involved in or enabling foreign interference in elections: attaching property in the US, blocking trade, and an array of financial restrictions and penalties. The EO does not spell out criminal penalties that might fall under the sedition and treason statutes, but expect these to be activated as the law provides. Quite a few political celebrities and figures in the news and social media may have exposed themselves to liability in this. If it doesn’t mean the end of Facebook or Twitter, it may spell the end of Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey running them. Also include the less-well-known execs at The WashPo, The New York Times, and several cable news networks.

Eventually, Mr. Trump will have to personally deliver the bad news to Joe Biden that he and Dr. Jill won’t be attending the inaugural ball on January 20 (live or on Zoom). Sound too wild to be true? Well, stand by on it. We’ll know soon enough.

    Pro tip, Nancy: When telling the world you are going to “install” your candidate, make your fraud good.

      Zing!

    • kimmasad01 December 7, 2020 at 5:48 pm #

      Only one thing matters- preventing that potted plant from reaching 270. SCOTUS can easily craft a ruling to do just that- sending this election matter to the House for a simple majority vote. Potted plant isn’t at 270 right now therefore potted plant is NOT potus-elect, so SCOTUS won’t be flipping or overturning anything by crafting its rule in such a way.

      K. Harris was smart not to resign her Senate seat. She knows what time it is.

      • Justin December 7, 2020 at 7:08 pm #

        Yes, it is very telling that Kameltow has not resigned her Senate seat.
        She’s obviously not ready to commit her political career to the potted plant yet… LOL

        • kimmasad01 December 7, 2020 at 7:38 pm #

          Declaring, or believing the media declaration, that potted plant is potus-elect only demonstrates just how woefully uninformed/misinformed democrats have become. It also reinforces Alinsky’s propaganda “rules for radicals”, namely rule two, which cautions: never go outside the expertise of your own people. This certainly explains why democrats have little to no natural curiosity left in them.

        I have to agree. Mr. Kunstler is a hell of a fine wordsmith!

  3. NickelthroweR December 7, 2020 at 9:46 am #

    I strongly believe that the Democrats never believed that this fraud would actually work. The plan was to convince their side that Biden won and then scream some nonsense about Trump being a dictator for the next 4 years.

    If Trump has any brains, and I believe he does, he’ll send the entire lot of them to Gitmo. After all, what does he have to lose?

    • SoftStarLight December 7, 2020 at 9:54 am #

      Make Gitmo Great Again 🙂

      • Ron Anselmo December 7, 2020 at 10:05 am #

      They planted the idea that Trump would “do whatever it takes” to remain in power long before the election.

      That was the ground work. The psy-ops prep.

      And the mass-media devouring simpletons ate it up.

      However, inversely, as the Soros/DNC provided pre-election BLM funds and murdering cops stories dried up, the Trump dictator and refusing to concede stories have ramped up. They needed to get angry blacks to the polls. They played the blacks 4 years ago, and they did it again.

      Now they need to get everyone angry about Trump failing to concede.

      I wonder who is getting the $ to manifest this displeasure
      An

      But these same simpletons are unable to see the patterns.

      • Tate December 7, 2020 at 10:50 am #

        An IQ test would weed out the low-IQ voters. But that’s not constitutional, so it requires an outrageous narrative of “literally Hitler” to bring out the ape element.

        • 100th Avatar December 7, 2020 at 11:08 am #

          It is cynicism. It is using an age-old, and rightfully, ingrained belief in a community, the black community, that police are not to be trusted.

          This is generational, and for good reason.

          What makes it rather disgusting is that Soros and the DNC know this. They know that shining a light on their concern, and bringing attention to a widely held and perhaps often ignored belief (police are not to be trusted, the US justice system institutionalizes systemic racism) is a breath of fresh air, and represents a change.

          Now amplify it. Make sure very interaction is amplified, is tailored to overlook the interaction, the details, but lets everyone know that a white officer killed a black person.

          Joe’s on their side. Get out there. Get angry.

          Go vote.

          See ya in 4

          • Ron Anselmo December 7, 2020 at 11:41 am #

            Hey 100 – Agreed, but if Jo(k)e Biden actually gets sworn in, do you really think there will be an election in ’24? Really? If he gets sworn in, this will not stand. It’s now or never.

            The time for being quiet, courteous & polite are over. People realize it. The “We’ll get ’em next time” is over. Done.

          • 100th Avatar December 7, 2020 at 12:05 pm #

            I think you are misconstruing my last sentiments.

            They represent the DNC’s feelings towards black voters:

            Thank you for letting us manipulate you, again, and see you in 4 when we need you.

          • Yohannon December 7, 2020 at 12:27 pm #

            Yeah, he made a different point – his. A conversation. He didn’t allow you to control or manipulate him. So you’re wrong.

          • Ron Anselmo December 7, 2020 at 3:44 pm #

            100 – You’re right. I lost you at the last line. People have repeatedly told me not to start drinking before noon – maybe I should listen…

          • Soul Forensics December 7, 2020 at 4:07 pm #

            Tate,

            With MaryV’s statement that “Plenty of people with high IQs are indoctrinated enough to act like stupid idiots.” I should have highlighted it to start.

            And since I’m here, I’ll expand a bit. It’s true that smart people can sometimes do stupid things. But the key work is “sometimes.” Low IQ people are much more prone to indoctrination, and just not thinking things through, if they are even able to.

            The top 4% may be (not necessarily are) smart, but university followers, who then go out into the world to enact the insanity, are ahistorical nincompoops.

          • bluedog December 9, 2020 at 6:09 pm #

            Hmm it seems that many think this was the first time an election was ever won by crooked means, it’s not and as long as people keep running to vote their own crook into office why it will continue, as if voting mattared for the only ones being fooled are those keeping the scam running.

        • MaryV December 7, 2020 at 11:31 am #

          Plenty of people with high IQs are indoctrinated enough to act like stupid idiots.

          • Beryl of Oyl December 7, 2020 at 11:37 am #

            They are worse, because they have been told how smart and educated they are, that they don’t believe they can be fooled.

          • Tate December 7, 2020 at 12:02 pm #

            True enough, especially when they’ve been incentivized en masse to power-play the hapless. Whether they fully believe their own crapola is another matter.

          • Tate December 7, 2020 at 1:57 pm #

            And of course the big difference between the hapless low IQ fraction & the precious high IQ SJW creeps is the latter don’t actually believe what they feign to believe. Now which of the two should we really be angry with?

          • Soul Forensics December 7, 2020 at 2:28 pm #

            I disagree. James Lindsay has pointed out that about 4% of Critical Race Theorists are hard core creators and interpreters and controlling stars of the opaque bullshit, another 4% are the hard core disseminators and teachers of it, and the rest of the 92% who are supposedly on board with it are either so because they don’t care one way or the other, or secretly disagree with/despise it (don’t want to get ostracized/fired).

            The perpretrators and acolytes of this disease are far less powerful than people give them credit for. As the claims continue in their absurd rationale, and as it affects more and more people in the mainstream, it’ll come undone.

            And this is why Biden and the globalists want to eliminate student debt. To keep the ‘intellectual’ wing of the anti-White male movement going, as well as to bankrupt Western nations even more quickly.

          • Tate December 7, 2020 at 2:48 pm #

            So Soul Forensics, who or what are you disagreeing with?

          • FreddieMars December 8, 2020 at 5:18 pm #

            Yes. The evidence abounds around here.

        • Night Owl December 7, 2020 at 6:07 pm #

          I still can’t believe this has been their line.

          I have never been so entertained by anything political as I have with the McResistance.

          The pages of The Onion literally came to life.

      • MaryV December 7, 2020 at 11:30 am #

        That’s why there needs to be a big reveal. It’s not enough that Trump win, he has to show evidence that jars the Democrat supporters out of their stupid stupor. Otherwise, tantrum throwers and TDS-addled violent freaks they’ve become (thanks to massive brainwashing techniques used on them for 4 years), they are going to cause a LOT of further damage to us.

        • Yohannon December 7, 2020 at 12:29 pm #

          The Left will revolt if Trump wins. The coming riots will be like nothing ever seen before. He will have to declare martial law.

          • draupnir December 7, 2020 at 12:58 pm #

            Why should he blink at that? This must be put down immediately and with enough force to give them pause. It’s about to get too cold to be out making much mischief, so it’s likely to be only the really hard core believers without their shock-troop dilettantes.

          • Soul Forensics December 7, 2020 at 2:32 pm #

            Yes, once DeShawn and LaToya venture out to the suburbs with their rocks and shivs, it’s immediately Civil War 2.0.

          • bluedog December 9, 2020 at 6:13 pm #

            You don’t really think that it’s the idea behind the whole scam do you. I can see the headlines now your new emperor is the one with the orange hair you will now get down and bow down to him.!!

            we can only hope, and that the thrashing will be epic

        • abbybwood December 7, 2020 at 1:34 pm #

          Exactly. Witnesses and their lawyers plus hard evidence needs to be brought out at a giant presser for all the world to see.

          The evidence needs to be so overwhelming that even CNN and MSNBC cannot deny it.

          Rachel Maddow in tears as the press surrounds Biden’s Delaware compound and he is rushed into a car ignoring all questions.

          Watching the reactions of Joy Reid, Chris Hayes, Jake Tapper, Chuck Todd, Chris Wallace, Don Lemon,Chris Cuomo would snap all the TDS sufferers back into reality.

          I can imagine seas of these poor suffering souls watching the news of massive fraud, tears running down their cheeks, starting to mutter “lock them up….lock them up! Lock them up!!!!”

          • abbybwood December 7, 2020 at 1:44 pm #

            When Tucker did the interview with Bobulinski regarding the Joe and Hunter Biden influence peddling scandal involving multiple countries, and The New York Post ran the stories that Twitter and Fakebook censored, I recall thousands of “early voters” who had voting remorse trying to figure out how to change their votes.

            This was a top Google search for weeks. (Some States did allow a vote change).

            “Early voting” and tech censorship makes October Surprises useless.

        • Justin December 7, 2020 at 7:22 pm #

          Yes indeed, there needs to be a big revelation with the evidence to eliminate any doubt of the doubters.
          Regarding the pseudo-intellectual perpetrators and acolytes, it looks like this is what they really are, and what we are dealing with.

      • Justin December 7, 2020 at 12:18 pm #

        That calendar clearing is very interesting since those days were all related to the Khalid Shaikh Mohammad case. Looks like they had to delay those case hearings for some reason?

    • Yohannon December 7, 2020 at 12:24 pm #

      Yes, he will have the ultimate mandate and bully pulpit and he should use it to the max. I’d say Rico both the Democratic Party and the Media. Break up the latter for real diversity of patriotic opinion. The People cannot be subject to Enemy propaganda all the hours and all the day of their life.

    Argentines are really tired of lockdowns:

    https://twitter.com/wes92i_1/status/1334941966170284038?s=19

    • Rulo Deschamps December 7, 2020 at 1:46 pm #

      Third coast, Argentines sure are tired of lockdowns, but also scared and manipulated by the media, same as everywhere. There’s a well oiled machine for delivering subsidies and food to the restless classes. Both bona fide religious run orgs like salvation army and the catholic church AND corrupt backchannels doled out by politicians in pressure cooker slums. Otherwise we’d have seen guillotines around Plaza de Mayo already, with millions out of work. They are raining dole and care packages on the destitute. Buenos Aires is currently at 15 million people, most in ramshackle rings surrounding the city proper, which is a jewel. Street fighting as politics has a long tradition there. Fútbol, Evita & Peron, pro-coup, anti-coup, Falklands, economic crises, even, yes, Maradona’s funeral with a million waiting outside to see the box with Diego inside (would have taken a week) and a decision after the first day to wrap it up. Riot! I suspect the clip may be from that, or any other reason, not the lockdowns (yet). I check Argie news regular & talk to people there, I would know. Funny the same clip appeared in ZeroH, also w a story about lockdown protests. Written by somebody w no understanding of the place or language & no direct knowledge (“somebody sent me this”) of what he was posting. Lately I’ve been having all kinds of creepy experiences on the internet. Things I knew could happen but didn’t think were so common. The viral clip w misguiding info, like this case. The censorship as soon as you finish writing something that the mandarins’ algos don’t approve of. Being locked out of an email acct and toiling in the Kafkian task of “proving you’re not a robot” by clicking on pics of fire hydrants, endlessly (I gave up after a dozen tries, cut my losses and resigned myself to the loss of that acct). Maybe I should look into ham radio, as another poster suggested last week. And Gutenberg printing techniques, movable type and all. This shit is getting too invasive and misleading. Is there a US Luddite party I could support?

        Thanks for that Argie report. It is very interesting for sure.
        Especially that the Salvation Army is participating there.
        That makes them more suspicious than before…
        Like the BLM protests in UK and Europe, which are all very suspicious.
        Follow their money trails, and it will probably explain the mysteries, as it always does.

        • Rulo Deschamps December 9, 2020 at 8:08 pm #

          @benr, yes, Argentina was the 8th economy in the world at one point, attracting million of dispossessed immigrants from all over Europe. Very rich soil in the pampas, cattle & wheat as far as the eye could see. It’s a long an sad story, how it was wasted & squandered. Hate Buenos Aires & love Patagonia myself, but I’m a bit of a misanthrope – cannot live with 15 million all around me. In Patagonia, you have a hard time getting 15 together.

    Just why on earth the public allowed electronic voting systems to ever be implemented is beyond me.

    It’s obvious why government would prefer it (hint: it’s not to save time or manpower, or to be more “accurate”). When they first started rolling machines out a couple decades back I remember pretty much everyone asking how in the hell that would ever be secure or trustworthy…

    That it has become accepted is basically a result of a loss of generational memory. Both in the way things used to be (and why), and the way in which the ginormous tentacular tech entrenchments are regarded in our current societal world view. We’ve come to trust the untrustable.

    They know a lot about us humans, when grouped together. Just takes a generation, maybe two, and all is forgotten. Not only forgotten, but even scoffed at. It’s not just change when it’s planned out in a long game. It’s 4D chess, and we don’t know the rules anymore

    And now we’ll have people lining up for tech to solve all of our other problems…and those of us with a few years under our belts will have to watch in head-shaking consternation as the new freshman classes of our world decide we know nothing…while they willfully put themselves (and us) into the most well-planned, heavily-guarded corner they can imagine.

    Tech is neat. But fuck them all the same.

        Better get the app.

          I’ve gotten by very well without a cellphone all along. If you are new to it, though, it can be a real challenge. When they ask for my cell phone number, I’ve been able to give them my landline number. Stuff like Amazon I am doing whatever I can to avoid as well. It mostly comes down to lifestyle choices, but I’ve travelled internationally until last January. If the COVID panic finishes (it is too effective for them to be reasonable about) and they try to demand electronic appendages from all travelers, their ability to force this Orwellian vice on people who do not want it will get examined in court.
          Fortunately, a lot of people are fed up with the surveillance state and there is a growing movement to ditch cell phones entirely. The greater our numbers the more we can push back.

        Resistance is good.

        But if life is made difficult without a vaccine (denial of flying, cinema, supermarket or the corporate cubicle) then make sure you choose a Non-mRNA vaccine.

        There’s a very significant difference between how the various vaccines produce the desired immune response.

        Here they are:

            I just looked for them on the web and they have a website.

          If you need to keep it turned on, keep it as far away from your body as possible. For a lot of uses, you can use a USB plug to a hardwired device (I don’t know the details since I don’t have one). If you have to have it physically near because you are on call, you can make a partial Faraday cage to reduce the amount of radiation coming your way.

      • jgalt December 7, 2020 at 11:40 am #

        Agree 100%. The vaccine is doubly dangerous, as it is composed of ingredients that they will not reveal to the public, but for which the pharmaceutical companies have been given total immunity, like the tech thugs have been given. Yet, they are even now lining up our military to be the first guinea pigs for their latest brand of poison. Resistance to the evil is our patriotic duty, and also good for our health.

        • abbybwood December 7, 2020 at 2:20 pm #

          As a nurse I found these inserts from the Covid vaccine being rolled out in the U.K. to be very scary.

          One insert is for patients and another is for medical practitioners.

          There are so many ways for idiotic nurses to make a mistake with this vaccine.

          It comes in a multi-dose bottle sub-frozen and has to be diluted with exactly the right amount of saline after only being at room temperature for a max of two hours. ONLY saline without preservative can be used! Naturally they do not send the “right” saline with the vaccine! Incredible.

          Bottle must be rotated 10 times, NOT SHAKEN! (Covid martini) then when the proper dose is drawn up it must be given intramuscularly in the arm but NOT IV!!

          Educated nurses know that when giving any jab the plunger must be drawn back to see if there is blood. If there is it means the needle is in a vein. Oops!

          I have seen many nurses give injections and not draw back!:

      People have come to trust that the government and the ruling plutocrats and tech oligarchs are working on their behalf.

      UBI, vaccines, censorship “fake news”, quarantines, masks.

      In a dystopic tech dependent near-future that William Gibson couldn’t dream up where they won’t be able to leave their home much less their “country” (whatever that will be – a region – on Government Earth?) without a mobile phone/computer, vaccination record, or + social credit account they will not even realize that they are living in China’s present.

      I’m an IT Solutions Architect that has been involved with tech implementations since the late 80’s in projects involving manufacturing, distribution and logistics, financial services, and higher ed. Before that I was a journeyman electrician working my way through college, so I have been thinking in terms of systems and system design for many years. What I’ve learned: tech can be cool and all, but it is only one aspect of a solution design to be considered. A modern enterprise solution has to include careful thought around people, processes, technology and data. All four. I am too old and curmudgeonly to be surprised anymore by the number of people I encounter who believe that technology in itself will solve a complex business problem for them, or the world’s problems for that matter.

      Apparently, the fraudsters needed to spend more time on people, processes, and data in their solution design. That’s where all the discrepancies are showing up.

      • MrMangoOnMyShoulder December 7, 2020 at 11:14 am #

        Agreed.

        As long as those pesky people are required to be involved in the process to show “validity and transparency”, the nature of human participation will leave visible cracks in both of those metrics.

        People are too stupid to realize how stupid they are. The smartest thing I’ve ever realized is that I am not very smart. Put the knowledge of the world at a moron’s fingertips and he will believe he is smart. Quite a brilliant plan actually, if one is viewing it from a nefarious perch.

        “Adjudication” is a Dominion override function that is meant for a marginal number of ballots, not over 100,000.

          Second, the financial consolidation of big media into just a few mega-corporations all dictating the same corporate lines their mouthpieces must follow. (Tucker has spoofed this on his show.)

          Third, the Mockingbird operations of the security state apparatus which has thoroughly infiltrated the so-called ‘Fourth estate’.

        Tate, I think the flower children of the 60’s & 70’s destroyed a lot of things. Things bad and good. After the tantrum they settled into conformism & spent the next few decades celebrating themselves. One of their (negative) achievements was destroying the notion of objectivity. Everything is subjective: morals, the law, politics, communications. So “everything is permitted” if it’s YOUR truth that demands manipulation, suppression of dissent, lies and disinformation. Their truth is rather pathetic: Biden means the Chinese microwave oven & xmas lights supply is secure, plus he’s one of our enlightened generation, plus he makes all the noises we so loved back in the day about the plight of the black and the gay, we still wanna squeeze profit in the face of global environmental disaster & overpopulation, Wall St will love it, the media already loves it, Trump was crazy and good riddance, back to biz as usual, that has worked so well for us since Ronnie R. Let’s not rock the boat. That’s their thinking. Read NYT & be reassured we’re the good people with the added peace of mind of being able to afford many more years in gluttony and with enough to not lose the golf membership. Wrong to generalize & paint a whole generation w a wide brush, I know. Random thoughts of an almost-50. And the scenario that Mr K says has a good chance of happening… I think has a very poor chance, maybe 10%. Consent has been manufactured, all the media and most of the politicians are saying it’s a done deal. I tend to agree. I hope for the spiritual good of this nation JHK is right, although I’m afraid the consequences if he is will be brutal and swift.

          Here’s how it breaks down for me. 60/40 Biden Trump. That is, Biden 60% chance, Trump 40%. Maybe 70/30.

          The problem — if it’s Trump — will be in the aftermath. Because of the siloing of information between two almost equally opposing sides, the Bidenites would be totally shocked because the MSM hasn’t prepared them for that possibility. We would enter a period of paralysis deeper than ever.

          But that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Sure, Trump is a businessman, he knows ‘the bottom line,’ but as a relative newcomer in politics, does he want to do it with one score, or is he willing to “do what’s necessary, whatever’s necessary?

          It’s doubtful.

      For someone advertising they are “gaffefree:, you sure seem to be gaffe prone. Obviously infected by the Trump derangement syndrome. Hopefully, the drugs for covid will clear up your condition permanently. It is also obvious that your deranged opinions are not based on any legal training, since the path to the SC is open and more evidence is being accumulated on an hourly basis. You really should talk to a competent attorney before expressing legal opinions.

        Standing is the usual problem, it seems. This has also been Lin Wood’s problem in Georgia.

        That is disappointing because his case – regarding the consent decree – otherwise seemed very solid.

        Though why a citizen who voted should not have standing, I do not understand. Of course there may be perfectly good reasons.

    • Mike Roberts December 7, 2020 at 6:28 pm #

      Yes. Apparently, some here think that no law suits have yet failed, as the losses pile up. Perhaps Trump is thinking of the ratings, planning a dramatic last minute reveal of some evidence (rather than hearsay) which will completely turn this around. Of course, any cancelling of the result wouldn’t keep him in office. His tenure ends on January 20th (or is it the 19th?). If there is no valid elected president by then, I think Nancy Pelosi takes over as acting president.

      If the election is fraudulent, then a new election is needed. Good luck on getting that organised before Jan 20.

      Meanwhile, the Electoral College casts its votes in about a week. Get a move on, Trump!

    • Wizard of the Saddle December 9, 2020 at 8:19 pm #

      The Potted Plant and the Camel will also be one term wonders. The stink of electoral fraud hangs so heavily over them that they will struggle to govern and will surely face a resistance from the Right that will be every bit as dedicated and devious as that which the GGG faced for the past 4 years from the CommieCrats.

      I predict that Libtard joy over stealing this election will prove to be rather short-lived. Trump will still be engaged in the new resistance, as will be the over 73 million (or possibly more), Trump voters who were disenfranchised in this bogus election.

      As the Left is so fond of saying: No Justice, No Peace.

    Since ours is a government “of the crooks, by the crooks, for the crooks”, I don’t share our host’s belief that justice will prevail in this fraudulent election business. Stealing and lying and secret payouts are the order of government procedures. I do hope to be surprised, but I doubt that there will be any kind of justice anywhere in this nation. It’s simply too corrupt.

      If they say, “Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood;
      let us ambush the innocent without reason;
      like Sheol let us swallow them alive,
      and whole, like those who go down to the pit;
      we shall find all precious goods,
      we shall fill our houses with plunder;
      throw in your lot among us;
      we will all have one purse”—
      my son, do not walk in the way with them;
      hold back your foot from their paths,
      for their feet run to evil,
      and they make haste to shed blood.
      For in vain is a net spread
      in the sight of any bird,
      but these men lie in wait for their own blood;

    Trump spokespeople said, based on nothing, that after Nov. 4th the talk about COVID will stop. Instead, it is almost now all we are talk about as things turn nightmarish while waiting for a vaccine.

    Trump spokespeople, based on nothing, said masks were not necessary, and restrictions on gatherings were an affront to our freedom. Instead most of Trump’s non-mask wearing staff and lawyers have COVID, and non-mask wearing states like South Dakota (also hosting motor cycle rallies) have the highest per capita COVID cases in the world.

    Trump spokespeople said that they were sending out the lawyers to expose all the vote fraud in the election – with no evidence. Instead, all but one or two cases were thrown out of court, along with stinging criticism, even from Trump appointed judges.

    Trump spokespeople, and JHK, based on hearsay, kept saying that there would be a bombshell from Judge Durham before the election. Didn’t happen.

    Now we are expected to believe, based on speculation, that the Supreme Court will invalidate the votes of hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvania citizens based on one theoretical statistical analysis. While I have no doubt that Alito, as partisan a hack as ever to be on the court, might do such a thing, it’s tough to see SCOTUS overthrowing an election without HARD evidence.

    It’s instructive to remember that the same people promoting this theory are the same ones who were entirely divorced from reality in the above examples. It’s not a Dem vs Rep thing, but a recognition of reality vs fantasy, no matter how badly one wants the fantasy to be true.

    • MC Hammerabi December 7, 2020 at 10:25 am #

      • HH December 7, 2020 at 10:42 am #

        You are asserting that there are no actual facts that can be the basis of agreement. Such a view is incompatible with forming a functioning government. The fantasy kingdom in which you wish to live would disintegrate as other individuals who claim a right to a personal “reality” would quickly undermine it. Reason is constructive, and can be used to build increasingly complex and useful structures. Irrationality, however emotionally satisfying, is destructive and cannot create anything useful.

        It is a sad fact of modern America that millions of people now regard their irrationality as proof of their personal freedom. These people will not be vaccinated because they “know” that vaccination is a sinister plot of (supply preferred villain). A democracy cannot survive if the people become ignorant and irrational.

        • Tate December 7, 2020 at 11:29 am #

          It’s preferable for the prudent to take a wait-&-see approach to a new vaccine that’s being unprecedentedly rushed into mass distribution & touted as THE answer.

          • HH December 7, 2020 at 1:37 pm #

            Nonsense. The approved vaccines have been tested on tens of thousands of people. Is it prudent for the anti-vaxxers to claim routine vaccinations cause autism? Is it prudent to claim that philanthropic foundations promoting vaccination are part of sinister plots? If everyone takes a wait-and-see approach, we will wait forever, because mass immunity will not be achieved.

          40% of nurses are now saying they won’t take any Covid-19 vaccine.

          There are these pesky little things known as “long term side effects”.

          It takes years of studying these side effects in trial participants to discover what they are. Neurological disorders, narcolepsy and death are just a few of the possibilities. Considering that all of Big Pharma is being given total immunity from liability, I completely understand why anyone would refuse this jab.

          I doubt many doctors will be lining up for this untested vaccine either.

          The normal process of creating and testing a vaccine takes about a decade. Presumably a significant portion of that ten year period is dedicated to assessing the possibility of long-term side effects.

          The Covid vaccines are being rolled out with about 90% of the normal vetting process shaved off. What could go wrong?

      The “cases” we are hearing about result from fraudulent testing which was never designed for that purpose.

      Many people make a lot of money from various aspects of this major fraud.

      South Dakota is doing as well as can be expected, and the worst record in the world belongs to New York and Andrew Cuomo, who won an emmy for acting like a governor who didn’t kill up to 12k elderly people on purpose.

      • HH December 7, 2020 at 2:37 pm #

        The test results are only an approximate measure of the pandemic, but hospitalizations and deaths are very meaningful indicators, and those numbers are heading up dramatically. COVID19 is now the leading cause of death in the U.S.

      • HH December 7, 2020 at 2:42 pm #

        The “vast amount of evidence” has not persuaded any judges so far, which you would view as proof that everyone is in on the conspiracy. Can’t seem to grasp that discrediting the voting process is a kind of poison that Trump has deliberately injected into American society.

        In order to believe Trump’s nonsense you have to accept that the fraud was limited to Biden votes and did not extend to any other races and that the failure to convince state officials and courts is just another part of a massive conspiracy. If half of the public actually comes to believe this rubbish, then democracy in America is dead.

          The Democrat and RINO judges deliberately refuse to give these lawsuits the hearing that they deserve. The remaining judges who are conservative Republicans are terrified of being destroyed by the Democrat power brokers, their media lackeys, and Leftist street thug lunatics if they dare to allow Trump’s suits to advance. Under these circumstances the courts are worse than useless. They are either terminally corrupt or AWOL moral cowards.

          If this country descends into a hot civil war the fault will lie with these judges who chose to ignore the fraud and to deny legal recourse to 74 million disenfranchised voters. If we can’t have rule of law, then don’t be surprised when people start reaching for their firearms. This is known as “self help” in legal circles.

      Actually it was the Dems who said Covid would would go away with Trump. A believe a couple of the governors said that.

    The inescapable counter-argument is why the down-ballot results were not also altered in favor of Democratic candidates. The Dems actually lost seats in the House and failed to take control of the Senate. Although I agree with you that there was all manner of mischief conducted to undermine Trumps presidency, the gross civic vandalism of attempting to destroy public confidence in ALL U.S. voting procedures is inexcusable.

    What kind of country would we be living in if any charismatic leader can declare elections invalid based on rumors and unsubstantiated claims?

      It’s actually pretty simple conclusion:

      Do Trump’s enemies hate him enough to perpetrate fraud? Yes!

      Is the system suspect to fraud? Hell Yes!

      Regardless of what warnings youtube and google add, I believe the election was rigged (and most certainly have been attempts to rig since the very first election).

      Biden can be president. I don’t know for the life of me why DT would want that miserable existence for 4 more years, but I ain’t ever eating that shit sandwich in which the “Weekend at Bernie’s” candidate is the duly elected POTUS.

        Tulsi Gabbard sems more alarmed about rigged elections than most of the Republicans.
        Maybe because the Democrats rigged their primary against her. They rigged it against Bernie too, but he leveraged that in some sort of back room deal, so he’s fine with it.

      “mischief”, HH? That’s like describing the Kennedy assasination as a “road accident”.

      Allow me to direct your attention to a dictionary for clarification of your
      misunderstanding English vocabulary.

      mischief |?m?st??f|
      noun [mass noun]
      1 playful misbehaviour, especially on the part of children.

      HH, how about replacing mischief with a more accurate verb: “treason”.

      noun
      (also high treason) [mass noun] the crime of betraying one’s country, especially by attempting to kill or overthrow the sovereign or government:

      The only winners is this chaos are the Chinese Communist Party and their fifth columnists. That’s the real threat to a happy ending and your chances of determning your future, HH.
      It’s way past the point of either side convincing the other with courtesy, rule of law and critical logic. This is an irreconciable clash of belief systems, flavoured with disappearing lifestyles, trampled rights, unequal opportunities, exponential usury, unbridgled corruption, treason, and high-tech fueled, elite vs debt serf class struggle.

      Nothing less than brute force and subjugation will secure an outcome.

        Well said. Martial Law is coming one way or another. The Left will revolt if Trump wins. And if the Courts fail him, it is his solemn duty to not to leave office and to crush the rebels. And if Biden wins, it will be a permanent covid lockdown, a reign of medicalized terror.

        Even if one just cares about pleasure and good living, Trump is the only answer. His martial law will allow business to go on and bars to open. And it will probably end. Biden’s will never end. It will just morph into Agenda 21.

          Janos, do you still haunt Cambridge? I absconded to South America from there a decade ago…..just an aside.

          Trump’s martial law will be akin to a noble king who looks after his subjects but demands total fealty (to the law, not trump).

          He de facto is obligated to not leave office.

      It is really very sad to see that we have come to the end of a long era in which a tiny minority of rational people have been able to trick the rest of humanity into behaving decently, with a few occasional descents into barbarism. Now mobocracy is rampant on social media, and everone is free to construct their own personal reality.

      It is now a proof of freedom and courage to cling tenaciously to a dogma, no matter what it is, and stoutly resist any contrary evidence. Indeed, the more proof there is denying a dogma, the more fervently it is believed.

      Vaccines cause autism. Climate scientists are corrupt conspirators. Saddam was behind the 9/11 attacks. Chinese communists are planning to rule the world. Bill Gates wants to implant chips in your children. Who cares if these statements are true? The truth doesn’t matter when you are building your own reality. All that matters is how tightly you cling to your beliefs.

    Any objective observer of reasonable intelligence would conclude that the entire voting system has been purposely redesigned to facilitate fraud.

    Dominion: Any digital device with code can be hacked. Any networked device can be violated at the network level.

    Mail-in: Hardly any other transaction of everyday life can be undertaken without an ID, but if you think that applies to voting you are a racist. And let’s have the signature on the envelope, which can be tossed out to prevent verification, shall we?

    And, as always, identity politics are weaponized to keep those who object to a patently idiotic system on the defensive.

    • MrMangoOnMyShoulder December 9, 2020 at 7:31 am #

      Well said. It is rather unbelievable how obvious it is, and has been since the “requiring ID disenfranchises those who don’t have one, or access to one” argument came into play.

      No, it disenfranchises people who either aren’t legal or don’t care enough to get a proper ID to be able to vote (let alone register in time). Those folks can go about their lives happily, all good by me…but when it comes time to vote in an election don’t blame anyone else, because they have disenfranchised themselves.

  19. Soloview December 7, 2020 at 10:44 am #

    Though I consider in the Kraken claims of Powell & Wood to be pathetic sci-fi I have no confidence in the manner the election was conducted and in its results. The mail-in systems are on the whole un-secured and in principle unauditable. It is amazing how few people know the real Achilles heel of the mail-in voting which is the de-coupling of the ballot which cannot be signed to satisfy the constitutional requirement of secrecy and the voter-signed envelope. Performing a hand recount or signature audit of the envelopes after they have been opened is useless, because the signatures cannot be linked backed to the vote of the signing person. That means that if the signatures are non-matching (in audit) then you cannot do any subtracting of votes without injuring one of the parties. So the mass mail-in ballots are by their nature “stuffable” and “harvestable” because the chin-of-custody will always be iffy. I have discussed this with my former colleague and we are in agreement that the only systemic remedy would be the encoding of the voter’s identity in the mailed-in ballot which of course would require to rethink the notion of secrecy. Some sort of hi-tech identity scan can be used to assure that physical specimen of the ballot can be easily linked to a voter if
    needed. But we also agreed that everything in computer tech is hackable. So the only real way to assure high-level integrity is “low-tech” in-person voting and hand counting which works remarkably well in Canada where precincts are small, usually under 5,000 voters. Votes are counted under the supervision of party scrutineers at the precinct and the specimen and counts then delivered to the “ridings” (counties).

    • Pete December 7, 2020 at 10:56 am #

      “Though I consider in the Kraken claims of Powell & Wood to be pathetic sci-fi”

      I would like to read how you’ve reasoned through the math and statistical analysis to arrive at your conclusion. I believe Powell & Wood have a real math, and real statistical analysis to support their claims.

      Though, I cannot confirm the truth of this next claim, there seems to be some traction to the report that a sequestered machine in Ware county, GA is revealing it’s cheating algorithm.

      Your take? Your refuting evidence would be interesting to read.

      • Soloview December 7, 2020 at 1:50 pm #

        Ok, let’s just state the obvious. Sidney Powell claimed in her TV appearances for about week before she filed her suits in MI & GA that the apparently co-ordinated stoppage in counting votes in the night of 3.Nov was caused by an avalanche of votes for Trump which “broke” the vote flipping algorithm, and necessitated a stoppage ostensibly to realculate the frequency of ballot-flipping if Biden was to win. Version of this claim here @ ~40 minute mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fT-udMDpCtU . If Sidney had proof of this, this would have been the (shit) show stopper, no question. If someone told her when it was done, he/she would tell her how it was done, an order would have gone right away to sequester the machines and the software right away and the swindle would have been speedily proven by expert code-whizes.

        What happened instead was that Powell dropped that scenario and instead of broken algorithm her suits argued “mathematical impossibility” theoretically and on high level in the number of votes processed vis-a-vis the ratio of votes btw Biden and Trump. (Google out the affidavit of Dr.Keshavarz-Nia in the MI suit) Why? Why would she abandon her high trump (no pun!) card for a speculative theory that contradicted itself, and which she must have known was going nowhere? Well, guess! There was no “broken algorithm” as there is first no such thing, and an idea that a mathematical formula could be disabled by an unexpected ratio of two numbers, falls into the category “hopeless twaddle”. There are hundreds of thousands (maybe millions) mechanical and electronic gadgets around that calculate normalized or optimized numerical output based on real-time calculations, automatically without the need of stopping the machine and using a hand-crank.

        Second, I said something about a self-contradicting theory that Powell uses. I am apparently the only person on the planet who noticed this but all the same. In some places Powell argues strenuously that Dominion software is “vulnerable” to external manipulation and hacking (yes, it is) and gives Texas’ refusal to certify it as an example. That however does not prevent her from arguing in other paragraphs, that Dominion built these machines expressly to execute fraudulent counts and flip votes based on predetermined, least-suspicious result favoring one candidate. Clearly, the lady protests too much. If I was Chavez, Castro, Khamenei, or Xi-Jin-Satan and designed/programmed US voting machines to flip votes for a guy prone to chase buck-naked the tail of his dog, I would make damn sure that they could not be hacked by the other candidate for the highest office.

        • Pete December 7, 2020 at 3:00 pm #

          Thanks,

          Wouldn’t a ratio, A to B, where B = 0, result in a broken algorithm?

          I can see a scenario, where the switch smoothing code encountered an all Biden or all Trump batch.

          I’m pretty sure division by zero is still undefined by most processors.

          IDK. I’m just someone looking for the truth in a sea of lies.

          • Soloview December 7, 2020 at 3:45 pm #

            “Wouldn’t a ratio, A to B, where B = 0, result in a broken algorithm?”

            No, if B was a divisor you would end up with A being Infinity, which by the rules of machine computing throws up a Division By Zero exception. This is not an example of broken algorithm but an indeterminate result.

            But this is a red herring because the Div#0 does not apply here. If you have 1 million votes cast for Trump and 0 for Biden, you can still assure Biden’s victory “algorithmically” with the desired margin of 4%, if you flip 520,000 Trump’s votes. Any actual situation can be handled by the algorithm, except that the algorithm cannot have vote-flipping constant in its function as Powell claimed. It has to be a variable adjustable throughout the process of counting. It’s the same process as in a thermostat, a car’s cruise control, or a financial calculation attempting to stabilize a share price.

          • Pete December 7, 2020 at 5:17 pm #

            Division by Zero is undefined. If the exception isn’t handled it will break the program at runtime. I’m very confident of that.

      As to mail-in ballots:

      The signatures on the envelopes must be verified PRIOR to opening.

      The name and address are pre-printed on the outside of the envelope with the signature.

      If the registration and signature match THEN the ballot is opened and placed in a count pile. If cameras need to verify all of this for future audits then so be it.

      There should be a federal law legislating that ALL states must update their registration files to be finalized by a date certain. Then only those requesting a ballot to be mailed get one.

      This would eliminate dead people, people who moved, addresses that are bogus, illegal aliens voting etc.

      Obviously ballot harvesting is rife for fraud and should be illegal.

      • rube-i-con December 10, 2020 at 4:02 pm #

        signature verification was wholly dispensed with in some states, and in others, a “30% match” (!) was deemed sufficient for authenticity

      Well, I believe around 50 people shot in Chi the past 3 or 4 days, and here in Ct, in Hartford-New Haven/Hamden area it seems like people have been shot every day; in fact, in New Haven, activists staged a so called ‘Peace Rally’ at the site of one fatal shooting and right around the corner somebody else got shot. People clearly haven’t got the message that Black Lives Matter even after the business districts in 50 American Cities have been burned and looted, and dozens of priceless historical monuments have been destroyed. What does the Deep State have planned? Maybe ramp up the violence, give their Antifa/BLM Red Guard footsoldiers free rein to burn the whole goddam country to the ground, learn Trump supporters once and for all who’s the boss around here.

        • Yohannon December 7, 2020 at 1:07 pm #

          Because they’re not Fascists, but rather Communists. Fascism is the dominance of the State over the private sector – not its destruction as in Communism. And what we really have is of course the opposite: the dominance of the private sector over the State, using Communism as a front to hide behind. Plutocratic Totalitarianism.

          If you need more evidence: Fascism reveres the history and traditions of the Nation. Obviously neither the Communists nor their Globalist masters are for that. If you want a really quick easy definition: Fascism=Nationalism. It’s just a big scary European word for a complete philosophy of nationalism. It’s used as a pejorative and not taught in Academia because the Elite are against nationalism.

        Contrary to your crowd’s dream-world, Act 77 is but a small part of the uproar.
        It’s at least as much about the PA Sec. State, etc.

        “election officials in Democrat strongholds… *exceeded their authority*, in order to give voters preferential treatment, that wasn’t afforded to voters in Republican-leaning areas of the state….

    Remember General Flynn? A full Presidential pardon? This is an interesting piece of news —

    “Emmet Sullivan, who was presiding over the case, refused to dismiss the charges even though there was no one attempting to prosecute the case. The legal process has dragged on through the appeals process, and finally President Trump issued a full pardon on November 25.

    On November 30, the DOJ notified Sullivan of the pardon, but he has still refused to drop the case.”

    So this is what we’re all facing now, like it or not. Sullivan has decided he’s a law unto himself and I don’t think he’ll be the last one to do this. Where is the outrage from both sides of the aisle that judges decide what laws to enforce or ignore?

    Pennsylvania was a perfect example of this manipulation. They ignored their own constitution to do as they pleased and Sullivan ignored a Presidential pardon.

    I found this,

    The plan in Europe is of course for deindustrialization and depopulation..

    In other words, WHITE genocide.

    As to windmills and solar panels in Europe, this short (6:48 min) video, “The Impossibility of Windmills”, very clearly explains why they can’t even pay for themselves.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7PHUMd7PYA

    Heckler notes,

    Windmills, destined to leave western people cold, hungry and living in darkness, while rich who disassemble our grid and destroy oil and coal companies still live in comfort and security inside their mansion, like the new ‘Climate Czar’ John Kerry, who owns 6 mansions, 2 yachts, a dozen automobiles, and a Lear Jet, and plenty of electricity and motor fuel to keep everything powered up.

      it is not white genocide

      it is neanderthal

      they found something in the code

      • 100th Avatar December 7, 2020 at 11:41 am #

        Abstract:
        “Europeans have three times more Neanderthal genes for lipid catabolism than Asians or Africans” is a claim in a reputable journal article. Researchers have concluded that the Neanderthal men and archaic Europeans lived next to each other, and that led to some interbreeding which took place. The archaic Asians (Homo sapiens) probably interbred with the Denisovans (who were hominid contemporaries of the Neanderthals). Hence, the archaic Europeans (Homo sapiens) probably ate more meat than the archaic Asians

        This would lead to evolution and culture of more aggression to catch the meat for regular consumption. This work looks at the current evidences.

        This would explain that other than the Mongols, the other groups that were world leaders (in terms of land mass controlled) came from the European geographical area and the Middle East. This outcome resulted from wars and conquest.”

        • SoftStarLight December 7, 2020 at 12:19 pm #

          Interesting! And It will be interesting to see how all of this changes with the imminent onset of the next ice age. Some scientists believe that process is in play right now. Even as some societies are preparing to reduce their use of fossil fuels ensuring that they will be displaced and may likely disappear.

          You failed to meniion the Mesopotamian and Persian empires.
          Even the inhabitants of the subcontinent were meat eaters until the Gupta period ( ca 5th century wide famine). Irrigation played a large part in food options and conversion from hunter gatherer to agricultural settlements.

          You also failed ot include stats on either Asian archaeic homo sapiens or Denisovans. Tibetan and other central Asian races/cultures are entirely dependent upon animal protein.

          For an excellent account of culture/civilization/social customs and the pursuit of protein, see “Cannibals and Kings” by Marvis Harris.

      Malthuss,
      Depopulation and genocide are not the same thing. We need deindustrialization and depopulation. Everywhere, not just Europe. Through consensus and voluntary agreement, education, economic incentives, etc. Not going to happen. Very remote possibility. Ethnic Europeans everywhere should be vigilant about genocide, as should everybody else. But Whites are one of the smaller groups, between 10 and 15% worldwide. So we should be especially vigilant in the face of massive overwhelming numbers of other ethnicities and much animosity directed towards us. Ideally, all major and minor ethnic groups and sub-groups should agree on proportional numbers reduction. And on more frugality and less consumption. That would be the rational solution. The wise solution. Decisions will be made for us if we don’t make them ourselves.

The odds of the polar bear don’t look too good, even if numbers are, as you say, better than the 60’s. One polar bear is worth how many humans then? Who’s more valuable? That’s the hard question. Supply and demand. I may be wrong. But you really should watch those films I mentioned. Not all’s well on Earth. Earth is in crisis everywhere you look. Even without watching the films, in my lifetime, I’ve seen many places degrade into pollution, extinction, deforestation. That’s my own observation, without others telling me what’s going on.

      I posted this yesterday – it lists the available information on which vaccines contain human cell line lines (mostly from 1973 (HEK293); another from 1985 [PER.C6]). You can check the individual cell line and its origin by googling it or looking on Wiki.

      https://lozierinstitute.org/update-covid-19-vaccine-candidates-and-abortion-derived-cell-lines/

      The table is also broken down by vaccine methodology, so if you don’t want mRNA either, the mRNA vaccines are all together under the fourth heading.

      But it’s worth reading the background to this stuff and bearing in mind what the author of this article says:

      https://securityboulevard.com/2020/10/factcheck-regenerons-use-of-embryonic-stem-cells/

      He’s talking about Regeneron (the drug the Pres. was given in hospital) but the same applies to the vaccines, since it is the HEK293 cell line that is mostly used in them, except that it was only used in testing Regeneron, whereas the vaccines vary according to whether the line was used in design/development, manufacture or testing, or any combination thereof.

      ” […]

      – The drug was tested using fetal/embryonic cells, but ones almost 50 years old, not new ones.

      – Republicans want to stop using new embryos, the ethical issue here is the continued use of old embryos, which Republican have consistently agreed to.

      – Yes, the drug is still tainted by the “embryonic stem cell” issue — just not in any of the ways that people claim it is, and not in a way that makes Republicans inconsistent.

      Almost all medical advances of the last few decades are similarly tainted.

      • GreenAlba December 7, 2020 at 1:23 pm #

        ‘Contain’ human cell lines’ was probably the wrong way to put it.

        ‘Vaccines in which (old) human cell lines were used in development, manufacture or testing’ is more accurate.

      • Yohannon December 7, 2020 at 1:33 pm #

        What about the vaccines changing our genes? We don’t want to be guinea pigs in their experiements. Or be changed into monsters!

        • draupnir December 7, 2020 at 2:26 pm #

          If you get the shots, you will be a guinea pig, as long-term consequences cannot be known. Your children will be guinea pigs. You’ll probably not start growing extra fingers or toes, or a third eye on your forehead. The way it was explained to me, the vaccine causes human cells to start producing a protein that is not human. I don’t see how this could be considered a good thing. Some of the scientific community are alarmed enough to endanger their careers by issuing warnings. Though video on YouTube is scrubbed as soon as YouTube becomes aware, they are cached on block chain sites. They are concerned with several suspected long-term side effects, including, but not limited to: risk of cytokine storm resulting in death if a vaccinated person goes on to catch the virus, risk of autoimmune disease, risk of long-term, perhaps irreversible infertility in females. Consider this last point and ask yourself if that is not actually a goal and built in function of this vaccine, the point of this charade.

          • Rulo Deschamps December 7, 2020 at 4:28 pm #

            Draupnir, Green Alba, the unthinkable has to be formulated: should we create more ways to enable the total human domination of this planet? Sir David Attenborough an M Moore have recently produced well researched films about the environmental collapse all around us. We’re way past the stage of “let’s save the few whales left”. We’re at a point where we are staring at mass extinctions in the face. A complete re-do of Gaia in our image, with only us, along with a lot of cows and chickens left. I always wondered, surely there’s very smart people in positions of power and influence that see this as well? Maybe they think they are too smart and are willing to play God? Decide who’s born and who’s not? Maybe, as the poster says, infertility could be a feature not a bug in this, or future iterations of vaccines? And, terribly: would those smart fellows be right or wrong? Is there right or wrong when we’re facing collapse? I don’t have the answers, only questions.

    “Eventually, Mr. Trump will have to personally deliver the bad news to Joe Biden that he and Dr. Jill won’t be attending the inaugural ball on January 20….”

    We may very well be heading into two inaugurations next month. A President for the Woke and a President for the Folk. Maybe things don’t stop there and they just go ahead and split the land mass while they’re at it. Let President-elect-What’s-My-Name-Again? have the States boarding the Pacific Ocean, as well as Cuomo-land and Jersey and Red Sox Nation. Throw in Michigan for good measure. President Drain-The-Swamp gets all the rest. Sure might be better than having things fully out in the street. Everybody gets something, trophies for everyone.

    Blueland can have their mask mandates and mandatory vaccines and mandatory Wokeness and sexual fluidity and Right Thinking and lockdowns and closed restaurants and Compliance Officers. Redland can live by the Constitution and the common sense of personal freedom and responsibility free from the Karens and Kens who always know better than you do and claim the right to control your thoughts and behavior at all times in all measurers. Might be the sensible solution to a powder keg of seething anger and mental and financial depression and simmering conflict itching to erupt?

    The Exceptional Nation has been begging to be split up for about 150 years now. The split has long already occurred in the hearts and minds and politics and behaviors of the American people. The only ones who haven’t acknowledged this are those who continue to patch together under the threat of force various groups of people that don’t want to have a damn thing to do with each other. Will it finally be time to let nature takes its course already? Or do They deliberately want it to come to something else?

    I was at a Stop the Steal rally on Saturday and one of the speakers said Trump didn’t just apprentice with his father (an astute businessman) but a political genius named Roy Cohn. Just looked it up. Apparently there’s something to it. Thus when General Flynn came running after the inauguration to tell him about the coming Crisis, Trump calmly said, I know.

          • Rulo Deschamps December 7, 2020 at 8:06 pm #

            Gosh, no. Pinochet was shite. The Chilean drama can be seen from many angles, but when it comes to personal bravery and courage, Allende is the one. Not Pinocho. Allende put on a helmet, grabbed a gun and died fighting, against overwhelming odds, along with his few loyalists left standing. That’s balls. Pinocho had the whole apparatus and power of the army, and used it to torture pregnant women and kill people in order to steal their houses. Nope, it’s Allende for me, although I disagree with his politics.

          • Kim December 8, 2020 at 3:05 am #

            @ Rulo Deschamps

            The heroic Pinochet did what any should have done in many other countries – he acted before the country would come to rue not acting.

            Pinochet killed in the thousands so that the communists would not kill in the millions.

            And if you are a communist or a fellow traveller, and you need to take a ride too, that’s perfectly fine with me.

          • Rulo Deschamps December 9, 2020 at 8:00 am #

            Kim, Pinochet was not heroic. That doesn’t make me a communist. Look for yourself. Lots of corruption there. Lots of private Swiss accts for the apparatchiks. It’s not about ideology. I explained that of Allende, I don’t admire the ideology (radical socialism) but the bravery of his end. Unlike, say, Saddam, he died with dignity. Unlike Saddam also, he was elected by a majority, legally. As I think Trump has in November, except for fraud and media manipulation. The country he (Allende) ran for a bit was chaos, yes, and probably he’d have ended up aligning w Cuba & the USSR, but that’s another story.
            Is there a need to issue threats? Do I need to take a ride? In a Hercules, tossed into the Pacific you mean? I hope not, but we all die in the end. Many who died that way were simply teachers, actors, harmless, just lefty bohemian types. And literally they were robbed of their houses, savings, children besides their lives.
            I get the anger. I’m angry too at the direction of this country. But some of “us” (very wide stroke here… “us” who oppose the lunacy of the corporate left of Davos and Hollywood and Wall St, and thought for a moment that Trump would be the remedy… he tried and did what he could, started a conversation, but others will have to refine it, continue it, and eventually take control to preserve the Constitution), some of “us” I was saying need to control the anger and understand anger is an energy, as Johnny Rotten screeched back in the day. We’ll need it elsewhere, not in civilized forums. In civilized forums, the best argument prevails, not the threat or the insult.

          • GreenAlba December 9, 2020 at 12:28 pm #

            “Pinochet killed in the thousands so that the communists would not kill in the millions.”

            So suddenly the end does justify the means, after criticising your enemy specifically for believing that the end justifies the means.

            Ideological roller coaster, eh … I guess gas chambers and ovens were inevitable.

    i was 24 years of age in 1975

    “when a man could still work and still would” Haggard

    all of the seeds of our current reality had been planted and were beginning to sprout. The populace of the United States had been systematically lied to about their nation’s activities in Southeast Asia for twenty years starting from 1955. Thirty years of consumption lay ahead before we would reach the peak for convential petroleum production. The phrases “America, Love it or Leave It” and “My Country, Right or Wrong” were easily available as bumber stickers. The events at Kent State and the “Hard Hat Riot” in Manhattan were behind us. Elvis was still alive, the first “Test Tube Baby”, the Jonestown Massacre and the Hostage Crisis in Tehran lay ahead. One thing was true above all others, every word that came out of Washington D.C. was couched in half truths. Stated plainly everything that was in the media was a lie, a very comforting lie, still a lie.

    Let us look at the world for a 24 year old citizen of the United States at this moment:

    “when a man can’t work and won’t”

    “Vote Blue, No Matter Who”

    The complete and total corruption of our politcal system has been exposed and the populace is divided into camps based solely on which lie is most comforting to their fragile ego.

    “No evidence of fraud” or “The Democrats want to destroy our nation” Simple strokes for simple folks.

    “The modern Little Red Riding Hood, reared on singing commercials, has no objection to being eaten by the wolf.” ~ Marshall McLuhan

    “Standing next to me in this lonely crowd
    Is a man who swears he’s not to blame
    All day long I hear him shout so loud
    Crying out that he was framed” Dylan

    Destroy a thing to save it? Bullshit now as it was in the day of Calley.

    In other words, you know Biden won through cheating and that Trump is the legitimate President elect. But you don’t care and still want a Democrat. To ease the tension, you crack jokes, hoping the status quo (possession is nine tenths of the law) prevails and that Biden retains the stolen office.

    Not an admirable stance by any means.

  40. rainmaker December 7, 2020 at 2:18 pm #

    So, the Dems and Hillary not accepting the Trump presidency as a legitimate election result is a sign of maturity? You can’t have it both ways, you hypocrite.

    • Sagesse December 7, 2020 at 4:39 pm #

      If they election actually was rigged to the extent that those on this site suggest, the results at that point would have nothing to do with Trump or Biden. It would have nothing to do with Democrats versus Republicans. It would be the toppling of a nation. Our very country would implode upon itself.

      The economic collapse, sickness, death and disorder that would follow the uncovering of such a massive deep state coup would make the pandemic look like a mere child’s toy.

      Now I concede that many a reader here would heartily relish such an outcome, as they have been actively cheering it on, but I am not sure they fully understand what they wish for.

      Could a massive deep state coup have occurred in the 2020 election? So far it would appear no. We have seen no proof beyond the frivolous and anecdotal. I believe Trump and those who represent his election interests in the courtroom are now pretty much 50 and 0.

      But don’t fool yourself, it will either be a Biden Presidency or the the doomsday scenario I presented above.

      There is no just flipping the election to Trump at this point in the process.

      • cbeard December 7, 2020 at 8:23 pm #

        You may have a similar scenario regardless of who becomes President. I, for one refuse to accept Biden/Harris, under the circumstances, that is. If there was any semblance of a fair election, it would be different. I’m not going to get into an argument with anyone else on the particulars, but when you see and hear all of the evidence, plus take the numbers and statistical probability into account, then common sense tells you Trump won. Is RocketDoc still commenting on CFNation. I believe he is from Huntsville, Al. I would like to ask him if he is familiar with a company called Pro V&V, supposedly a voting system testing company out of Huntsville that certified the Georgia voting machines. I hear they have close ties to Dominion.

        • Mike Roberts December 7, 2020 at 8:58 pm #

          What statistical probability are you referring to? If it’s that the bulk of the mail in ballots went to Biden, that seems a near certainty given Trump’s distaste of mail in ballots, urging his supporters to turn up in person. Add that to the fact that more timely counting of mail in ballots was ruled out, in many cases, at Republican request and it ended up with the situation we saw. It’s surprising only because the counting gave the impression of a race with one person far ahead at one time, making it seem unlikely that the other could overtake. However, the election winner is the one with the most votes (for each state), so a winner can’t be known for certain until all votes are counted.

  47. Soul Forensics December 7, 2020 at 3:48 pm #

    “If Trump could give Lavrentiy Beria a job he would.” K-Dog

    So Trump = Stalin.

    Followed by over twenty disjointed non sequiturs stuffed with admonitory abstractions and associational fallacies.

    “Problem is Beria is dead.” K-Dog

    A great day for the Soviet Union. Even Stalin, the most vile creature of the 20th century, did something right by ordering his execution. And it’s heartening to know that there are still enough willing Trump supporters to act as the U.S.’s version of Pavel Batitsky. (And if you don’t know who plays the many potential Berias in this scenario, you’ve either not been paying attention, are a traitorous stooge, or are as bright as an expiring firefly in a mineshaft to Hell.)

    • BackRowHeckler December 7, 2020 at 4:14 pm #

      SF, if I’m not mistaken Beria was liquidated after Stalin went toes up in March, 1953. I could be wrong.

      Brh

      • Soul Forensics December 7, 2020 at 4:49 pm #

        You’re correct, BRH. My mistake. But Stalin had it in for him for quite a while, and had already planned his execution, even while promoting him to his limited circle in 1952. (Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.) He just allowed Beria more rope because it was expedient at the time. The other grandees, except for Malenkov, all hated Beria, too.

        Hilarious add-on. Beria was first official to Stalin’s dacha when So-So was expiring on his lbedroom carpet. The bisexual dwarf was alternately fawning over Stalin when he thought he’d recover, and dictatorial towards the other Central Committee members when it looked as if Stalin was on his last breath.

        • Soul Forensics December 7, 2020 at 5:01 pm #

          I should also add that Stalin wasn’t happy with Beria’s exponentially increasing killing sprees after the purges in ’37 and ’38. Stalin wanted Beria to account for specific murders (individual and group).

          When Stalin appears as the ‘moderate’ in an argument about levels of violence, you know the other side is worse than Satan.

          And it makes a further mockery of K-Dog’s hysterical and stupid Trump-is-Stalin argument. Trump, after all, would want a hundred thousand Berias, doncha know!

          • K-Dog December 8, 2020 at 9:24 pm #

            I am very clear Trump is not like Stalin. Stalin was way smarter. Further Trump is more of a narcissist than Stalin the pig was.

            They both grabbed pussy. Stalin like Trump was without morals. My Trump-is-Stalin argument did not go further than that. You are letting your imagination run amok.

    • K-Dog December 7, 2020 at 7:53 pm #

      Sorry you made a fool of yourself. If I write something I’m not 100% sure of or is pulled from my ass, I google.

      Give yourself a smell test before you publish. It only takes a minute.

      In December 1953, Pavel Batitsky was chosen to execute Beria in a plot by Nikita Khrushchev.

      See how easy it is!

      Live up to your moniker. A ‘Forensic” should be a stickler for details. You can do it!

        I’ve read scores of books about Stalin and the entire Soviet terror regime.

        And I admitted my mistake. I had a brain fart. I’d ask if you could do the same (you DO make mistakes, right?), but first I’d have to know what the hell you were talking about.

            Opposed to the Lenin-lead Bolsheviks, Trotsky was a Menshevik and believed that the ideas of Lenin would end in a one man dictatorship. How right he was. Lenin’s party, restricted to professional revolutionaries was elitist. Trotsky wanted a party modeled after western European social democratic parties. Trotsky believed the revolution had been betrayed. Stalin assassinated him in Mexico.

            So Tate, a simple yes or no will do. Do you agree with Trotsky that the revolution was betrayed.

            They completely miss the point.

            All of the Communist revolutionary leaders were traitors. They betrayed the millions of people they presumed to rule, sending millions to the gulags or the firing squads, or the basement of the Lubyanka.

            but think, what did you do or say to merit that attention?

            In that situation I know exactly what I did. I was talking in a You Tube chat about cell phones, the Michigan governor, Netflix servers, and the FBI. The FBI educated me in their techniques and I was passing the info on. I guess ‘they’ don’t want the ways they do things made common knowledge. I could not have had more clear confirmation that I was spot on.

            I should concern myself about what I may have said in a country with a first amendment why?

    Trump needs only to establish his rightful victory in Pennsylvania and one other state that is contested; even Nevada would suffice, but his best chance is either Georgia, where Ware County Republicans uncovered vote switching programming in the Dominium machines, or Michigan, because Detroit.

    It would be best, I think, for him to claim only two states based on documented criminal activity, thus lessening the mindless liberal outcry.

    With his credentials secure, he can then pursue RICO actions against the Pelosi/Soros cabal.

    Lengthy hearings into vote fraud in all the other swing states would make great theater for the next four years and keep the Dems out of power until they have a chance to reform themselves into a less corrupt organization.

            According to standards employed by Jimmy Carter as an overseas monitor of foreign elections in Third World shithole countries, yes, our most recent election failed to conform to those standards for ensuring a fair and non-corrupted process.

            But now I suppose you will assure us all that Jimmy Carter is just another Trump mouthpiece. Whatever…..

            The fact of the matter is that no rational, honest observer of this process can possibly buy into this massive gaslighting BS that Biden is the greatest vote getter and most popular political figure in the history of US presidential contests.

            If you know of any cases please give us the specifics. – K-Dog

            ============

            Dog, I myself committed election fraud and spelled out exactly how I did it right here on this blog. I repeated the tale at least 5 times. It was ridiculously easy. I sent a letter to the Clerk of Middlesex County, NJ explaining everything to her. I sent copies of that letter to the NYT and the Newark Star Ledger. I handled all the paperwork with rubber gloves on and signed the letter ‘anonymous.’ The fraud involved mail-in ballots that arrived at my home in the name of each of my two sons who haven’t lived here for 20 years. They had long since moved to MD and PA respectively where they received and voted their legitimate mail-in ballots.

            I could see instantly the flaw in the entire mail-in ballot system and that the same flaw existing in NJ was also, more than likely, happening in all 50 states. The signature matching procedure is a total joke. To prove it, when I voted the 2 illegitimate ballots, I signed my son’s names in my own handwriting which looks nothing like either of their actual signatures. This should have resulted in some ‘curative’ process to kick in but it didn’t.

            Q. Shtik,

            I’m not happy you did that no matter who you voted for. If you did.

            Your are kicking up sand and making noise. Even if your particular form of pansy-assed fraud were repeated a million times over it would not have changed the outcome. It is not relevant. If there was fraud that could not change the outcome it is irrelevant and must be ignored.

            Otherwise we let trolls control things. (I’m not calling you a troll). An election is meant to determine the will of the people. What a small number of rabble-rousers do will not matter if it does not change a result. The appropriate thing is to ignore the rabble-rousers altogether in that situation.

            I don’t believe you. I don’t think you would do federal crime without getting something in return. Casting three votes instead of two could get you into very hot water should you be found out.

            And all for contributing to your candidate in a minuscule way.
            I don’t think you are that much of a fool.

      Trump needs only to establish his rightful victory in Pennsylvania and one other state that is contested; even Nevada would suffice – How would this work?

      By my math even if Pennsylvania and Nevada went to Trump, Biden would still have 280 electoral votes. Trump would need at least 3 of the swing states to throw out their certified results in order to win the election.

      • JohnAZ December 7, 2020 at 5:16 pm #

        If the mail in balloting is declared illegal by SCOTUS and suspicion of computer shenanigans are declared possible, SCOTUS may declare the entire election was a sham and throw it into the House.

        Biden loses in the House. Harris loses in the Senate.

        A fitting ending to this very corrupt election.

        I love how the Left uses that Trump lost by 7 million votes. How the heck do they know? The number of illegal votes will be enormous whether by stuffing or computer manipulation.

        Do Biden win by actual votes or manipulation, even you do not know for sure, that is why this corruption must be substantiated or dismissed.

        And definitely not on just your say so.

        • Kim December 7, 2020 at 5:58 pm #

          Trump increased his votes by 11 million from 2016. His win was an utter landslide.

        • cbeard December 7, 2020 at 8:27 pm #

          The mail in ballots constituted fraud and in my opinion, the computer shenanigans aren’t just suspicion but actual cheating.

        • benr December 8, 2020 at 10:47 am #

          Indeed and as I have been telling people here on this board Hillary did not win by three million votes last time because more than that was fraud and provable fraud just in California.
          Time to really look at how we elect and vote for people here in America.

      • James Speaks December 7, 2020 at 7:30 pm #

        Your math is wrong. If Trump were to get Pa and Nv he would have 271 and if Biden got Ga, Mi, Wi, Az and NM he would have 267.

        • Mike Roberts December 7, 2020 at 8:21 pm #

          Trump has 232 electoral college votes, as things stand. PA is 20 electors and Nevada is 6, that would give Trump 258 electors, if he managed to win them. Trump would need another 12. He’d also need to win either Michigan or Georgia, otherwise he’d have to win two of the remainder.

          • Sagesse December 7, 2020 at 8:43 pm #

            Exactly. Thank you Mike.

            This is a a good window into the intellect of those who still believe Trump will find a way to steal the election.

          • James Speaks December 7, 2020 at 9:33 pm #

            Yeah, you’re right. I had “flipped” Virginia in a what-if and forgot to flip it back. (wiping egg off face …)

            So, Trump needs Pa and two others. At this stage I think Ga and Mi are the most likely but Wi would work, too.

          • benr December 8, 2020 at 10:45 am #

            Except it only will take proving fraud in one state on the scale being looked at and the rest of the lection using those machines comes tumbling down like a house of cards.
            There are thousands of people now that are coming forward to say they saw irregularities and swearing to it.
            This election will be over turned or the pitchforks and torches come out.
            Even in California people are pissed and now the proof of the cheating we all knew was going in is out there.
            Fucking Dems have been cheating all along.

          • James Speaks December 8, 2020 at 3:04 pm #

            “Except it only will take proving fraud in one state on the scale being looked at and the rest of the election using those machines comes tumbling down like a house of cards.”

            Given the last minute filing by the STATE of Texas to SCOTUS on purely constitutional grounds, it looks like the fraud issue, though still valid, is secondary to the constitutional issue of elections supervisors and state courts arrogating powers reserved by the Constitution for the states’ legislatures.

    Jim–a fascinating blog post this morning, as always.

    Executive order 13848 was issued in September 2018, not 2020.This makes it even more impressive–the president and his staff were working on getting intelligence resources engaged in election integrity more than two years before the fiasco of the 2020 election. Talk about vision and foresight.Talk about playing 4-D chess.

    What will be more impressive even than this will be if the president is able to use this EO to help him keep the White House.

    I’m hoping for the best, but I’m prepared to be disappointed. If Biden/Harris are inaugurated, they had better be prepared for resistance: giving back to them in full measure what their party and the MSM gave to the Trump administration these past four years.

    • JohnAZ December 7, 2020 at 5:26 pm #

      I hope more than resistance to Biden, the creation of a new populist party favoring the middle class is created and the traitorous RINOs are crushed. The GOP is no longer a viable party.

      Trump would have won in spite of the corruption if not for the Libertarian winnowing of votes plus the actions of the Lincoln group.

    The third suspect in the Fulton County Georgia suitcase scandal has been identified as supervisor Ralph Jones, Sr.

    He is the one who announced the “broken water pipe” to the media.

    https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/12/huge-caught-criminal-conspiracy-revealed-3rd-suspect-ga-suitcase-scandal-also-man-spread-lies-water-main-broke-state-farm-center/

    Ralph Jones Sr is also involved in a scandal where – while an election official – he received payments from Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms’ campaign in the Fulton County elections department during last year’s runoff election.

    The campaign paid more than $3,600 to RJ Mays Consulting, whose registered agent is Ralph Jones Sr., registration chief of the county’s election department.

    The filings raise questions about potential conflicts of interest and what experts called an alarming lack of separation between a top election employee and active political campaign.

    Jones Sr. oversees the elections department’s Registration Division which maintains master voter lists, purges criminal and deceased voters from the polls, verifies petitions and mails absentee ballots.

    https://www.ajc.com/news/local-govt–politics/atlanta-mayor-campaign-paid-firm-registered-election-official/yhLLC8tSFuuYP0c4dWZ1yI/

    In further news, Ralph Jones’ son is the official spokesman for the campaign of Democratic US Senate candidate Raphael Warnock,

    I’ve been watching Biden.. OK, well, not Biden. Whoever is making the decisions for Joe Biden– maybe a committee of composed of lobbyists, lawyers & Newspeak dictionary editors– make the decisions over Joe Biden’s cabinet & departmental choices.

    If you read their biographies, many if not most of these people are DC insiders and/or corporatists who engineered the sundry federal government policy failures such as the Iraq War, the policies behind the 2008 financial crisis, reps for Big Tech, the policies around the failures of US trade policies & the abolition of real US manufacturing jobs. It’s a catalog of decades of overwhelming failure.

    Only in the federal government, could such an inept and bloated permanent bureaucracy not only be rewarded for failure, but be heralded by our State Media as some pseudo-heroic characters, post-Trump.

    The nation is fucked.

        Oops! Just got to the 25 minute mark. Murray’s in over his head when it comes to American politics. Trump needs to establish proof “very fast” of his claim of legit victory on Nov 4? Nope. It takes as long as it takes. After all, the fraud was rampant and deep. And then he says he’s “not convinced” of current “wild claims” of Powell, Wood, Giuliani.

        This is indicative of many leftists who’ve crossed the aisle based mostly on select issues (Crit Race theory, anti free speech) and who still can’t get beyond the left/right paradigm. Rubin’s in the same boat.

    Sargesse said, “Now I concede that many a reader here would heartily relish such an outcome, as they have been actively cheering it on, but I am not sure they fully understand what they wish for.”

    Strawman.

    I have been warning anybody who would listen for the last 35 years about the laws, policies and institutions that were being used to change our form of government and destroy the American people. John Adams told us:

    “But should the People of America, once become capable of that deep simulation towards one another and towards foreign nations, which assumes the Language of Justice and moderation while it is practicing Iniquity and Extravagance; and displays in the most captivating manner the charming Pictures of Candour frankness & sincerity while it is rioting in rapine and Insolence: this Country will be the most miserable Habitation in the World. Because We have no Government armed with Power capable of contending with human Passions unbridled by morality and Religion. Avarice, Ambition, Revenge or Galantry, would break the strongest Cords of our Constitution as a Whale goes through a Net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

    I have learned that most are not interested, not being given eyes to see or ears to hear. I hold no animosity toward them, or you.

    It is already worse than you know. I welcome the increase in awareness that is upon us, but I am certainly NOT going to enjoy it. “But no chastening at the time seems to be matter of joy, but of grief; but afterwards yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those exercised by it.”

    Why does the Trump legal team come across as so inept, time after time…? I’m guessing there are two key reasons:

    1) They don’t actually CARE what happens, this is all part of the long-term ‘grift’ plan. Keep throwing red meat to the braying crowd (well represented around here) and keep the ‘noise’ going for as long as possible, while Mr. Trump sets up his next gig; and

    2) They’re just lazy bums. They don’t seem to have done any background checking on their “star witnesses”.

    There was the registered sex offender, Daryl Brooks, who claimed to be a poll-watcher and a Philadelphia resident – in fact, he lives in NJ and is well-known as a serial loser in political endeavors:

    https://www.politico.com/states/new-jersey/story/2020/11/09/man-featured-at-giuliani-press-conference-is-a-sex-offender-1335241

    But that Melissa Carone in Michigan the other day is likely the better example. Aside from her slurring, snarky testimony after what appeared to have been a three-martini lunch prior, there’s her ‘revenge porn’ escapade of just a couple of years ago.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdmn7ujx1aQ

    So, the lack of credibility is there right from the top of their cases.

    Firstly, the ‘affidavits’ that even the Plaintiffs admit they cannot verify (they only threw out the ones they could see were OBVIOUSLY garbage);

    Secondly, ‘star witnesses’ with sufficient, publically-available damning information that no lawyer worth his salt would seriously put up to ‘testify’ with any expectation of success (in fact, a Wayne County judge had previously stated he found Carone to be ‘not credible’, but Rudi, the sly ol’ dog, put her up anyway). What a fabulous Freak Show we’re getting now. It’s like watching a slow-moving train-wreck…just can’t look away.

    Thirdly, none – not even the fabled Ms. Powell – can get a suit beyond the first round, the Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss.

    This afternoon, it was a Georgia Federal Judge that tossed out the ‘Kraken’ lawsuit, finding she actually had no standing, among other things (such as filing in the wrong court – she should have gone to a state judge in the first instance). The great Kraken suit in Michigan got the same response yesterday…

    https://www.11alive.com/article/news/politics/elections/sidney-powell-kraken-georgia-election-lawsuit-hearing-today/85-338163f4-ac47-4bdb-8c3b-982b8d174659

    She’s likely to take it to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, but that august body tossed L. Lin Wood’s case out over the weekend, so don’t hold your breath.

    I wonder how her ‘GoFundMe’ page is doing over at “DefendTheRepublic.org”?

    No way of knowing, because unlike a GoFundMe page, there’s no cumulative total. Probably just another grift, and I’m sure she’s managed to suck a few bucks out of pockets around this blog.

        A predictable response. “Never give up!” is your guiding motto, but frankly, there is NOTHING “coming down the pike”.

        As always, when the truth is exposed, your conspiracy simply grows wider & wider – now the courts are also all corrupt. Where will it end?

        Remember when you thought Bill Barr was the most wonderful guy, appointing John Durham, and together they were going to jail Brennan, Obama, and a whole raft of low-life liberal DNC miscreants?

        What is Bill Barr to you now? He’s a Deep State Globalist and a treasonous turncoat, is he not? He’s OBVIOUSLY choosing to NOT SEE the VERY OBVIOUS FRAUD that anyone can see (if they have the right CT Lenses on). What a fucking traitor! Lock him up!

        What’s next? If Rudi’s paycheck bounces and he STOPS his current Klown Kar Act cold, will he be next to be vilified by the inconsolable Trumpian Cultists? You can bet on it.

        No one is immune from ex-communication if that person doesn’t drink all their Kool-aid, like a Good Little Follower, retweet all the conspiracy theories and believe whatever utter twaddle Mr. Trump vomits up next. It’s actually quite a sad and frightening point you’ve all come to.

    Do you remember when you were in Middle School,and you confided in a friend you trusted that you thought a certain girl was pretty? You swore that friend to secrecy,but to your everlasting mortification,when you came to school the next day EVERYONE knew about it,even the Janitor and the Tray Line Lunch Ladies. People Can’t,Won’t,and Don’t keep secrets. So the idea that “scores of elected officials,at both the State and Federal level,Senators,Congressmen,Governors on down” were all involved in a huge conspiracy for years,and somehow adhered to a code of silence and secrecy like a Medieval Monastic order,is not based on any rational assessment of actual human behavior. I really don’t think this could plausibly have happened. People get drunk,and wag their tongues. People get into gambling and financial trouble and sell information to the media for money. People confide secrets in spouses,then go through bitter divorces.People have staff members Privy to information who hate them leak sensitive information. People like to sound really important,so they tell that trusted friend they” have a really big secret-but you can’t tell anybody” .

    • Yohannon December 7, 2020 at 10:32 pm #

      Do you tell your secrets to the bums on the street? No. Any temptation to do so? No. The Elite see average Americans as deplorables. They aren’t even tempted. They deceive via the media their lesser brethren who might not be as hateful and might still know conservative friends or family, telling them that the victory was valid.

      And then also, some contend that the best kept secrets are actually out in the open. Its just that they are well managed and the tellers of the secrets depend on the ignorance and gullability of the hearers who are counted on to not actually hear or see anything. Those who do hear and see and understand and tell are just called crazy. And because the truth is crazy to most it all works out. In many but not all cases of course.

    Sanofi-Pasteur (descended from the Catholic Louie?) is developing a vaccine that doesn’t use baby parts but does use the mRna antigen spike.

    https://cogforlife.org/2020/03/25/much-hyped-moderna-mrna-1273-covid-19-vaccine-uses-aborted-fetal-cells-sanofi-pasteurs-version-does-not/#more-18859

    Thus they care about morality in the past, but not so much right now for us and our descendants. Draupnir cares about the present and the future, but doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the unborn or sins against them in the past. Because that would hurt “women”.

    Is there a vaccine that doesn’t use baby part or the mRNA? Will there be one? And if there is, will “consumers” be given the choice? Right now the rush is so great that you’re only going to get what’s unloaded in your area.

    This is another way of asking: Are they any complete human beings or human being who even desire to be the real deal? I have a lantern and I’m going to roam the streets looking for such a unicorn, such a just man.

      Oh, really. Diogenes? I’m not a feminist, Yohannon, though it is true I support abortion and don’t give a rat’s ass about the unborn. Why should I? They aren’t people and have no rights. The Russian vaccine does not use mRNA.

        • draupnir December 8, 2020 at 9:08 am #

          Why is it always men? If your uncomfortable with it I recommend you don’t have one. Check with the Russian Embassy. I’ve heard they will give it to you for a price, but I haven’t confirmed this. I suspect they still use fetal tissue. I believe it is in all vaccines.

            Abortions are over done and damaging physically and mentally.

            It’s always men, benr. Until you actually have the equipment to give birth, I don’t believe you’re entitled to an opinion on the subject. If you insist on having one, and believe that, because you are offended, the very fact of your offense entitles you to impose your beliefs on others, I suggest you try keeping your legs crossed.

            Who are you tell to me what I identify as or whether or not I have standing in this topic?
            Your opinion is Just that and nothing more.
            I do how ever have fifty years of experience watching women all around me get abortions and all of them regret them and deal with the emotional and physical problems from them.
            I know of one local poke who had so many she can now not get pregnant as a result.
            My own aunt went to Mexico to have at least two and regrets them both now in her 70’s I got her drunk and spent a tearful evening in her regrets. This is the lady who raised me while my own mother was working.
            Case AND point my own mother got knocked up and wanted an abortion but my sainted grandmother said nope since she was only 16 at the time she was not allowed to.
            This topic is near and dear to my heart so to speak.
            I was always VERY careful and knocked up only one women after marriage and regret not having more kids but one was all we could afford and deal with.

            Drapnir Its a shame your own mother did not abort you since you are in favor of others being ended all to tragically.

          • draupnir December 8, 2020 at 5:56 pm #

            Don’t give me that ‘what I identify as’ bullshit. You’re a man and as such can have no standing. I’m sure those women had good reason to end those pregnancies, and if they regret them now, well, everybody is burdened with regrets about something in their life either done or not done. That doesn’t mean they would undo it if they could. Who doesn’t weep into their beer occasionally?

      • MrMangoOnMyShoulder December 9, 2020 at 8:29 am #

        Draupnir, I respect your straightforward honesty on this subject, but I’m also curious if you have kids. I felt that way before I saw what it takes to bring a life into the world. I’m cool with others following the law as they need to, but that experience changed my personal view on the subject from that point on. At least making it something be avoided if at all possible.

    Sorry, but I’m really confused about what is being alleged here. Someone brought up General Pinochet. I’ll start there. After Allende won a close election in 1970, Nixon directed the CIA to engineer President Allende’s overthrow. On September 11, 1973 Allende was killed and replaced by General Pinochet. The CIA supplied the money and weapons. Many Allende supporters were rounded up and killed.

    Thirty years later Smartmatic voting machines infected by CIA software helped Hugo Chavez win in Venezuela??? Dominion later bought the assets and IP of a company, Sequoia, that Smartmatic had sold off a year or two before. Dominion installed the bad Sequoia software into their voting machines before selling them to Georgia, Michigan, and 26 other states. Dominion software architects, developers and quality assurance testers made it work. These people knew what they were doing but not one has spoken out.

    It didn’t look like Biden was going to win the democratic nomination until March, 2020. The Dominion software would have to be updated to replace Chavez with Biden after that. Someone should look into Dominion machines purchased beginning in April and if there were free updates of older machines over the Internet or installed with a USB stick. Real physical evidence or testimony from an honest Dominion software employee would convince skeptics. The mountain of hear-say evidence that the Supreme Court will have to look over may not sway them.

        And how many wartime fighter pilots and test pilots live to be 97?

        Not many for sure, but US fighter pilots had it easy compared to the Germans and Japs,

        To see how tough it was, read the fascinating biography of Hans-Ulrich Ruel, “Stuka Pilot”. Things were real on the Eastern Front!

        Download here:

        https://archive.org/details/RudelHansUlrichStukaPilot

        Hans-Ulrich Rudel (2 July 1916 – 18 December 1982) was a German ground-attack pilot during World War II, in which he was the most decorated German serviceman as sole recipient of the Knight’s Cross with Golden Oak Leaves, Swords, and Diamonds.

        Rudel was credited with the destruction of 519 tanks, one battleship, one cruiser, 70 landing craft and 150 artillery emplacements. He claimed 11 aerial victories and the destruction of more than 800 vehicles.

        He flew 2,530 ground-attack missions exclusively on the Eastern Front, usually flying the Junkers Ju 87 “Stuka” dive bomber.

      A true American legend. A man’s man. Gone to join his compatriots on Pearl Harbor Day. Rest In Peace, Gen. Yeager.

      Impossible to replicate such men in our present-day “woke” nation filled with non-serious girly-men who identify as transgendered snail darter’s of color in need of safe places to smoke legalized weed while they pop Prozac to treat their terminal stage TDS.

      Man, has this country sunk into depravity since the early 1960’s, or what? America is no longer worthy of being graced with the presence of a man like Yeager. God knew that. So he called him home.

    The Splendor of Truth

    Y’all really need to understand how mRNA “vaccines” are designed and executed: You’re not going to like it

    Posted onDECEMBER 7, 2020

    But first, can we agree on the definition of “vaccine?” Assume that we are talking about a totally legit traditional vaccine, one that has been around for years and is safe and effective. Fundamentally, what is it? Can we agree that a vaccine is a substance made from a weakened or dead version of the pathogen which is introduced into the bloodstream to induce an immune response?

    Okay.

    So now understand this: mRNA “vaccines” are not vaccines… No. What we are dealing with here is bio-technology and bio-engineering. In short, it is genetic modification. Imagine the exuberance of the Luciferian Gates-funded pharmas, not to mention Gates himself, in their pursuit of being God.

    So how does it work? When cells divide, the strands of DNA are broken up, and the Messenger RNA (mRNA) replicate the genetic information, copying it forward in a process called Translation. Learn about this process HERE. This thing Moderna/Pfizer/Gates have come up with is a synthetic strand of mRNA, which is programmed to penetrate the walls of healthy human cells and hijack the normal replication process. The previously healthy human cell will now be transformed into a fragment of the actual virus, the so-called ‘spike protein.’ This molecule will be recognized as a pathogen, provoking an immune response.

    The previously healthy human cell will now be transformed into a fragment of the actual virus. You read that correctly. The following is from the first paragraph of the wiki entry on this technology:

    An RNA vaccine or mRNA (messenger RNA) vaccine is a new type of vaccine that transfects molecules of synthetic RNA into human cells. Once inside the cells, the RNA functions as mRNA, reprogramming the cells to make the foreign protein that would normally be produced by the pathogen (e.g. a virus)… These protein molecules then stimulate an adaptive immune response that teaches the body to destroy any pathogen… The mRNA molecule is coated with a drug delivery vehicle, usually PEGylatedlipid nanoparticles,[2] to protect the fragile mRNA strands, and aid their absorption into the human cells.[3][4]

    …little is known about the medium and longer-term side effects[8]

    If you go to wiki HERE and click on View History at the top of the page, then scroll down and click Oldest, that this article was first created on 17 February 2020. How fresh. You will also note that as recently as January 2020, this technology was not even deemed experimental yet. It was deemed theoretical. Wow.

    So many questions. Will the Organic Vegan Non-GMO crowd boycott this biotech, which effectively turns every human who takes it into a walking GMO? I sure hate when logic gets in the way of healthcare decisions. What happens if the warp-speed rush to polish off the biotech results in some of the mRNA sequencing being off, by just a little? I keep thinking of poor Jeff Goldblum in The Fly.

    I also keep thinking of all the fruitless decades of trying to develop a coronavirus vaccine, with countless mice, cats, and kids who died in the trials. You didn’t know about that? Yes, the problem is that these “vaccines” have a tendency to enhance uptake of the pathogen. This effect is called antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), and I posted a long annotated explanation of this problem HERE. Bottom line, this is the reason why there has never been any sort of coronavirus vaccine. But somehow they found one in ten months?

    What about pregnancy, lactation, and the long-term fertility of genetically modified mommies? Ohhh… they don’t want to go there. You want to know how mRNA biotech might interfere with a developing baby, a breastfeeding baby, or mom’s chances of ever getting pregnant again? Too bad, since they purposely avoided trialing any of that, not even in mice. No need to disappear the evidence if no evidence was produced. Then when Pfizer got the UK approval, they issued TEN PAGES of splaining, warnings, disclaimers, etc. HERE

    Bill Gates is on video explaining that he wants to reduce world population by 90%, but I’m the crackpot for suggesting that a vaccine that operates via synthetic genetics might pose fertility risks. Yup.
    Please start explaining this stuff to friends and family.

As Tucker said tonight, it was Russia, Russia, Russia because they were hiding China, China, China. Always they accuse others of the very thing they are doing, or almost since they didn’t accuse Trump of being in bed with China as they are.

    They had a corona vaccine for cats that worked. Once it wore off, they cats had zero defense against the disease and they all died. The vaccine ended up enhancing the disease inside their bodies. Would another dose have saved them? Or would have to always be a larger one? Who knows or cares? There’s money to be made, power to be had, and a population to be reduced.

      So basically at the end day what you are telling me is that we literally have the possibility of being in an I Am Legend type sitch, aside from all the other atrocities this vaccine is going to unleash. The Branch Corvidians should be forced to take it first then as part of their initiation rituals. Let them take the sins of all of the worlds ronas upon themselves. Maybe once they turn into monsters and then crash we can finally have peace? Its probably too good and easy to be true but other more realistic possibilties are equally terrifying to ponder!!

      • Yohannon December 8, 2020 at 12:13 pm #

        No, I’m telling you at the beginning of the Day so you can you know options – if any. Hopefully Trump wins through and doesn’t make us take it. Though I wish he wasn’t on board with it at all. Tucker should do a show on this since Trump seems to follow him.

        The Covidians will take it indeed, willingly, as an offering to their Devil God.

        When the first tested the atom bomb, they thought there was a chance it would set the whole atmosphere on fire, but they went ahead anyway. This is what Man is, tragically and almost hopelessly flawed. We’d be better off without all of this technology I’m afraid. Or as the narrator said at the beginning of some old movie (blanking), What does it profit if our machines grow in power but man himself stays the same?

        • SoftStarLight December 8, 2020 at 3:31 pm #

          Trump won’t make the vaccine mandatory based on everything I have seen. But he has gone along with the vaccine rollouts and by doing so there are likely consequences of that that will go against his beliefs. In that sense it all seems to be politics. The guy has been relentlessly attacked for not doing more about the virus. Remember Obama’s magic wand? Well, “the people” really do believe that the President should possess a magic wand apparently. But should Biden get installed to set the stage for the reign of Kamala then it is hard to see how the vaccine does not become mandatory.

          The heart is hopelessly depraved. Bad things even result from the best of intentions in some cases. I agree with you. Technology is really wonderful in a lot of ways. But if it is going to make our existence a literal prison then I wish it weren’t here either. Maybe we would be a lot happier living like the hunter gatherers did.

    So we have known that the Chinese, and other assorted foreign interests, have been buying our political leaders, corporate and bank executives, media personalities, etc., for decades. And now we know they bought an election and have the full scope of foreign election interference in sight. It’s a totally invalid and compromised election. Plus you have the states which violated their own election laws and procedures, thus invalidating the overall election from a Constitutional perspective. Not to even address the pre programmed voting machines and pre printed ballots. So all else at this point would seem to be window dressing. The inner circle, core of power people and their networks are national security liabilities beholden to and actively collaborating with hostile foreign powers. This core of power is likely profiting from other things, like hmmm, maybe vaccines? And maybe from the mega businesses that have thrived in the lockdowns? You know. Those same mega corporations that fund BLM and their riot reparations. And so on and so forth. I guess big things will come out in the next few days so we’ll see.

    Vigano speaks again:

    https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/vigano-church-of-bergoglio-uncrowns-christ-the-king

    …The Church of Catholics, the Church that loves those who honor themselves with the name of Christian, is the Church that does not retreat before civil authority, thereby making herself an accomplice and courtesan of it, but rather the Church that endures persecution with courage and a supernatural gaze, knowing that it is better to die amidst the most atrocious torments than to offend the Most Blessed Virgin and Her Divine Son.

    She is the Church that does not remain silent when the tyrant defies the Majesty of God, afflicts her subjects, and betrays the justice and authority that legitimizes it. She is the Church that does not yield in the face of blackmail nor allow herself to be seduced by power or money. She is the Church that ascends Calvary, as the Mystical Body of Christ, in order to complete in her own members the sufferings of the Redeemer and to rise again triumphantly with Him.

    She is the Church who assists the weak and the oppressed with mercy and charity, while she stands fearless and terrible in the face of the arrogant and the proud. When the Pope of this Church used to speak, the flock of Christ heard the consoling voice of the Shepherd, in a long series of popes who were unanimous and in agreement in the profession of the one Faith.

    Conversely, the so-called “church” of Bergoglio does not hesitate to close churches, arrogating to itself the wicked right to deny God public worship and to deprive the faithful of the grace of the Sacraments through a wretched connivance with civil power.

    This “church” humiliates the Most Holy Trinity, lowering it to the level of idols and demons with sacrilegious rituals of a neo-pagan religion. It snatches the crown and scepter away from Christ the King in the name of Masonic Globalism; it offends the Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix in order not to annoy the heretics, Her enemies.

    It betrays the duty of preaching the Gospel in the name of dialogue and tolerance. It silences and adulterates Sacred Scripture and the Commandments of God in order to please the spirit of the world. It tampers with the sublime and inviolable words of the Prayer which the Lord Himself taught us. It profanes the holiness of the Priesthood, cancelling the spirit of penance and mortification in clergy and religious and abandoning them to the seductions of the devil.

    It denies two thousand years of history, despising the glories of Christianity and the wise intervention of Divine Providence in earthly affairs. It zealously follows fashions and idelogies rather then molding souls to follow Christ. It makes itself a slave of the Prince of this world in order to preserve its prestige and power. It preaches the blasphemous cult of man and refuses the sovereign rights of God.

    And when Bergoglio speaks, the faithful are almost always scandalized and disoriented, because his words are the exact opposite of what they expect to hear from the Vicar of Christ. He asks for obedience to his own authority even as he uses it to destroy the Papacy and the Church, contradicting all of his Predecessors, none excluded.

    Today the high priests of this modern Sanhedrin outrage Our Lord and His Most Holy Mother, complacent servants of the globalist élite who want to establish the kingdom of Satan; tomorrow they will retreat before the victory of the Virgo Potens, who will restore the Holy Church and will give peace and harmony to society, thanks to the prayers and sacrifices of so many of her humble and unknown children.

    Can they do that, file directly to the US Supreme Court?

I mean…what result…apart from being absurd and antithetical to the idea of law itself? What if the US Supreme Court rules that State election laws regarding the processing of votes don’t matter if the relevant State Secretary of State decides that such laws don’t matter and that the relevant State Secretary of State can act arbitrarily and capriciously in total disregard of the laws pertaining to the processing of votes and ballots?

    This would usher in a very freakish kind of Dystopia?

      And, 9 other states have chipped in, by suing (straight to SCotUS) in the PA case which Roberts made a mess of, see

      I’ll guess that, esp. given the number of related cases emerging, SCotUS will combine most of them, to issue the Ruling of the Century.

    Churchill said in his book The World Crisis w.r.t. German action against the French fortress of Verdun:

    “… the school of formula had vanquished the school of fact, the professional bent of mind had overridden the practical, submission to theory had replaced the quest for reality.”

    Sound familiar? I couldn’ a said it better myself.

    So how is it possible that Trump was elected President? Well, for starters, see what Churchill said above about “expertise”, in that particular case, military expertise, but it applies to experts in general.

    The ruling classes of the US and the Western world got into their heads some truly cockamamie notions about how the world ought to be re-ordered politically and economically, these notions summarized under the term “neo-liberalism”.

    Now, we know that politicians are whores, which is all the political “science” you need for day-to-day application. But, having said that, they realized their limitations and relied on the accumulated wisdom (cough – experts) of those versed in world affairs. No matter, politicians are still whores.

    The re-arrangement of the world economy was justified by those in the economics profession. Now, an economist is someone who couldn’t predict the outcome of a one horse race. Two economists, watching a two horse race between Old Ned the plow horse and Crackerjack the sleek racehorse, would disagree as to the winner.

    Such is this field of academic endeavor. Put some theoreticians from the other ‘ological’ disciplines onto this and you would get the application of ‘logic’, ‘reason’, and ‘observation’ such that you would come away convinced that there were no horses and this wasn’t a race.

    The re-arrangement of the world by whores and idiots gives you the result we have today. No matter the good qualities that Trump brought to the table, and he does have some, he did not have and does not have the chops to undo the mess of two generations of egregious misrule. Even if he manages to stay in the Oval office, what is he going to accomplish with the two factions of the One Ruling Party still in power in Congress and the judicial realm? And never mind the rest of the unelected bureaucracy and the military.

    What does Trump have to show after four years? The southern wall, partly built, which is a good thing, validation of the interests of a large swathe of the American populace previously pissed-on by their purported “betters”, which is an excellent thing, and some other odds and ends. But he gave the rich a gigantic tax cut. WTF?

    The only way to justify four more is the alternative, Crazy Joe, a senile old crook,. The best thing about the last four is that it wasn’t Hillary. Can you imagine?

    Such is the sorry-ass state of affairs.

    Biden admin might forgive all or a portion of student loan debt. Not knowing anything about economics or finance, I am curious if this can be done without any consequences to the stability of the US? Also, what about people who have paid off their student debt, will they get a refund, or are they just suckers? And what about loans going forward, will they simply become grants since nobody expects the $$ to be paid off anyway. Finally, if forgiving student loan debt is a positive, why not just forgive mortgage debt, credit card balances and auto loans too? We could could start at year 0, like the Khymer Rouge tried to do in Cambodia in 1975.

      That is one view of what The Great Reset would involve. Cancelling all debt, giving everyone a monthly stipend and housing…in exchange for their sovereignty, rights and for rolling up their sleeves on demand.

      And before some dong says that’s all a Fox News conspiracy theory…the Founder and Chairman of the World Economic Forum Klaus Schwab has called for this by name numerous times in recent speeches, as well as wrote a book *actually titled* “COVID-19: The Great Reset”.

    With all the mad swirling around of evidence of fraud the last month, it is almost amusing how easily it is dismissed as “baseless speculation” by so many.

    The general feeling of that black and white eventuality, after 4+ weeks of eye-rolling, head-shaking and “C’mon Mans” now pervades the minds of our citizens, from left to right. Including myself…not the belief that the claims are baseless…but the feeling that nothing will happen with even solid proof.

    So…what’s left to turn the tide? It seems only a whistleblower can make something happen. And not a whistleblower who said they saw people doing illegal things, or were told to leave while others stayed to keep “tallying”.

    There needs to be a whistleblower that admits they *actually did it*. Anything obviously fraudulent. And then they have to name a few names. Then the dominoes would fall. Until that happens, everything (and I mean *everything*) will be dismissed as biased hearsay by the general public as well as the courts.

      Wow, to my disbelief I was actually with you there for a bit…until you had to blame the persistence of a virus in nature on everyone you disagree with politically. That mentality is why we are not the country we once were. No common ground can be struck when nothing is your fault, ever. It often is, and you know it.

      People wear masks and do plenty of hand-washing where I live, and, shockingly (?!!), some people still get sick. As if that hasn’t been a risk factor of human life for thousands of years…

      Tired of people (like you, assuming you are one) saying “if only those jackasses would wear a fucking mask this wouldn’t be happening.” They are wearing them (for the most part). It doesn’t matter.

        An actual study was done to that effect: 85% of the people who catch covid wore the mask. As do medical personnel of course – often the real deal, a fitted N95. The virus is small than the mesh. Once the droplet dries, it can be either blown out or sucked in by the Suckers.

        A large number of nurses don’t want the vaccine. Probably an even higher number of doctors.

        The Mask is a symbol of submission to the New Order, a hijab basically. And the “vaccine” is the actual baptism.

        • GreenAlba December 8, 2020 at 12:57 pm #

          Niqab, not hijab. You mastered this previously. 🙂

          “An actual study was done to that effect: 85% of the people who catch covid wore the mask. ”

          But perhaps they infected fewer people themselves than if they hadn’t worn one, a study that would be much more difficult to design and run.

          “The virus is small than the mesh. ”

          Neurodoc explained to you that it is not the size of the virus but the size of the droplet that matters.

          “Once the droplet dries, it can be either blown out or sucked in by the Suckers.”

          Er, no … once the droplet dries, the virus dies. You also mastered this previously.

            “The drop may live long enough enter the mouth. Your scope is too small.”

            I think you are referring to the virus, rather than the drop, but who knows what you mean?

            Now we have disembodied virus jumping around on its own? I’d need to ask a virologist about that one. In the meantime I’m happy to help a little if helping a little is all that’s available to me.

            Re your rights, you (probably well before me) all voluntarily bought into a network of shiny, status-y gadgets that was never going to NOT be used to keep tabs on people, and you worry about popping a mask on to go into a shop or on to a bus. None of *them* knows where I am because I stick a mask on to pop into the corner shop.

But there sure are a lot of minions and foot soldiers who are doing their best to enforce the tyranny of the one percent. Do you trust foreign countries in their decision making any way?

    Is “Panache” an English cultural trait? It looks like the early Americans were mimicking the English, particularly in Virginia, but not in New England? I suspect that 50% of George Washington’s “Greatness” was that he had “Panache”?

    George Washington looked like a Leader. Washington was always preoccupied with his wardrobe and looking respectable and fashionable. George Washington had “The Look”.

    George Washington always made a point of trying to appear before his rabble soldiers of frontier whiskey drinking redneck Deplorables mounted upon his big white horse in full uniform and regalia.

    Don’t you think that it’s ironic that George Washington was basically the embodiment of “Royalty”?

    • SoftStarLight December 8, 2020 at 11:08 am #

        George Washington tried to finagle 23,000 acres of prime land somewhere in the Ohio Valley promised to veterans of the French and Indian War, but some British bureaucrat screwed Washington out of the claim on the pretense that the land survey was defective.

    George Washington et al of the founding fathers earned their wealth. They wanted the America’s separated from monarchical systems that wealth followed family lines and was directed by a king. No titles of nobility are allowed here per the Constitution. That is why the political parties and their dynasties are so negative.

    The GOPers resented Trump because he was a political nobody that found a majority of America’s hearts and he whipped up on them. The entire party system, both sides, are based on seniority and legacy rather than merit. Trump will be the guy who is remembered for destroying the “nobility” that had developed, the Clintons and the Bushes. For that alone, he must be thanked.

    Capitalism is the most aggressive economic system as long as it maintains a competitive marketplace. There is the problem, the political process in the US has destroyed that competitive marketplace.

    Closed, single entity markets, like utilities and health care will never be competitive and must be dealt with with regulation. Much to the AMAs chagrin.

    The progressive income tax of the 1950 to 1980 time frame recycled capital from the 1% down the ladder. When Reagan eliminated that, he opened the gates for the wealthy to accumulate and accumulate, leading us to the income inequality we see now with corporations taking over the marketplace and eliminating competition. Conservatives hate the progressive tax but something must equalize capital from corporate America to small business America to avoid the lousy situation we have now. BTW, the economy hummed along during the 50s and 60s.

    Destroyed marketplaces lead to bad economies which leads to governments saving us with totalitarian rule. The economy must self regulate to prevent rule by the one percent.

      The Chamber of Commerce wants unlimited immigration. More consumers! Whole new nations (markets) entering America! The vulgar and vile superficiality of it all. Infinite ignorance. You can’t argue with people like this – you simply need to tell them No. They must make do with the markets and “consumers” (hopelessly vulgar) they have. They need to be afraid of their betters. Of Citizen Soldiers who have spent half their lives in uniform. Of men who actually have the right to vote, unlike most of them.

      No voting without a record of service. And in the New Republic, that will mean military for men, decades of being on call. Such men will carry their rifles over their shoulders as they go to vote. Loaded of course as in Old (now passed) Switzerland.

      The New America will be improved and the Constitution amended. An exact replica of this one would simply lead to the same madness in very short order.

    • Tate December 8, 2020 at 1:27 pm #

      Capitalism requires novelty. It requires change (“turnover”) for the outsize profits it demands. The market economy per se isn’t “capitalism” although capitalism requires a market economy to exist. It’s arguable whether technological change is good — some of it is, some isn’t — but capitalists don’t care how they get their profits. Beyond some of the technological change that it quickens, most capitalism is nothing more than a grift.

      For example, if population growth through immigration enables developers (who control the Chamber of Commerce) to seize the outsize profits they demand, then that’s what the Chamber will support. That’s a big grift.

      The panic induced by “climate change” creates another grift, the carbon-credits scam, an entirely artificially-generated novelty. It’s a product of the financial engineers in Brookings & other neoliberal think-tanks.

      And now this new thing emerging, the Covid casedemic. Big Pharm licks its lips over the action it can suddenly exploit promising to impose a vaccine upon entire populations, thus generating huge profits, even though there’s no real need for it.

    Explosive? Yep.”

    The information Mr. Carlson presents fails to mention that this is the exact method used by the CIA. When Mr. Nixon opened the door to China does anyone believe the skids were not greased with dollars? The Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) was underway, which way did the dollars flow?

    Where did the capital to industrialize China originate? Remember the axiom about pointing your finger.

      I think that a huge problem for the US is that it really has no reason to exist as a country. What does it buy you to be a citizen? People come here to tear off a piece of the US for themselves. No affiliation, loyalty, affection, just gimme, gimme, gimme. This extends all the way to the top of the Deep State, that is why it seems they are selling out the US for their gain.

      Because that is exactly what they are doing.

      • Yohannon December 8, 2020 at 1:09 pm #

        That’s the ethos of Capitalism. Do we vow to end it? Remake human nature? No. Not completely anyway. We vow to regulate it. Little guys will remain largely free. Get bigger, more rules. Get really big and you join Us, or you can take your winning and Go.

        There’s more to life, much more. And we would find it in youth if it is there to be found, and nurture it. Those with no higher instincts will learn to obey. Nothing draconian. They can buy, sell, marry and beget as usual. But they would not dream of asking for open borders and cheap labor. That’s a world that will be dead. And the high men will always be looking for those who would bring it back – such as employers who cheat their employees. That’s a sin that cries out to Heaven for justice. And the high men will hear and offer retribution.

        People who are obsessed with money simply aren’t admirable for the most part, unless and until they grow out of it. Those who are willing to use their knowledge and skill to serve the People can join the ruling class. As I implied, who is more qualified to regulate an industry than one who has risen to the top of it?

        I know, I know – you want a return to mid century America. But Capital centralizes as Marx said. That America isn’t coming back. It was already well on its way out even back then. We can bring back much of domestic tranquility that people yearn for though – but only by my way, not yours.

          “Do we vow to end it? Remake human nature? No. Not completely anyway. We vow to regulate it. Little guys will remain largely free. Get bigger, more rules.” — Yohannon

          Yes, yes, and yes!

          I’ve been saying this for decades. Capitalism, as contrasted with Communism, is infinitely better because it recognizes that greed is inherent in human nature. (Communism, in its advocacy literature, always strives for the delusional ideal.) People can do and create amazing things, at a wide scope, for society, with money as a large, even main driving force. But it’s then easier to game the system once power (i.e. money) ticks a level or two upwards. Harsh regulations, enforced to the letter, and transparently relayed, is what’s needed. Will it ever happen? Maybe that’s the dregs of my own idealism kicking in.

    When I went to school, classes were taught that the US was a benevolent country that saved the world, esp. Europe during WW2 and bailed it out afterwords.

    Today kids are taught that the US is evil, divided, racist, greedy and about every other bad thing.

          • James Kuehl December 8, 2020 at 1:48 pm #

            We were not told the whole truth in grade school. I was taught that the Indians were savages and needed to be exterminated to allow European settlement of North America. Only later did I learn that the people who lived here before Europeans arrived had a sophisticated culture including cities, farms, and trade. I was never told about American reticence to enter WW II, to which we were latecomers to the conflict. I was not taught that Russia did a lot of the heavy lifting in defeating the Nazis, losing nearly 17 million people, or 15 percent of their population. Recognizing that one’s self-image may be incomplete or exaggerated does not mean self-hatred. On the contrary, it indicates the courage to face the truth and start the hard work of self-improvement

          • Yohannon December 8, 2020 at 2:13 pm #

            Any time they started to citify, it tended to be Pyramids (first of dirt) and human sacrifice atop it. Even in North America. The Pueblos had a different line, but there is much evidence of cannibalism at times and of course much war. Though to be fair, it was usually them being attacked.

            The vanished mound builders of the South and Midwest were also cannibals. And of course we have the litany of atrocities gained in first person accounts (evidence) by captured White women and children. Again to be fair, some of the children were adopted and treated well, not wanting to go back to their relatives.

            The old views were probably no more exaggerated than the new views, just in the opposite direction. And yes, the Germans weren’t as bad as we’ve been told and their were Peace movements in America before both world wars.

    • Yohannon December 8, 2020 at 1:16 pm #

      Much of that was lies as per the Fire bombing of Dresden and starving the German People after both wars. And of course Operation Keelhaul, the support of Stalin and Mao, the betrayal of Chiang Kai Shek, etc.

      The Fish rotted from the head and it began early in the 20th Century and even before. America was overthrown with the creation of the Federal Reserve System.

      No new America can be created on the basis of Lies, but only the Truth. But I agree that the most we can hope for is some half assed reform and a return to the noble lies of yesteryear. Any new America will be innundated by minority refugees, what to speak of more “Californians”. Do we have the balls to keep them out? To remember what the Founders REALLY though about non-Whites?

          Your side started the War with your phony treaty with Poland. Hitler allowed your army to escape at Dunkirk and had the deepest admiration for England and her people, founded by the best Aryan stock. His offers of friendship were thrown back in his face by the fiend, Churchill.

          Prince Peter of Poland confronted the Three Amigos and protested the occupation of his Nation by the Soviet Union. Where was your beloved “treaty” then? To his credit, only Churchill seemed ashamed. Stalin grinned hugely. Roosevelt, the vicious crip, stared straight ahead. Only Winnie looked down, knowing himself to be shit.

            I don’t intend to re-enact the war with you, Janos. I just think mention of Dresden should be accompanied by acknowledgement of Coventry, which came first. Often the payback is worse than the first strike, and so it was, sadly.

      Because the Right only care about money (the Capitalist ethos). Thus the Right is not the Right and not right either. This fake Right adopted the idealism of the Left just as a way to get along and make money. There can’t be any racism (love of one’s own race above all others) if you’re bringing in tens of millions of other people for cheap labor and new markets, right? That makes sense, right? Right?

      Thus its now clear to you: We have a Nation or we have Capitalism. We cannot have both. Free enterprise is fine. But if it starts becoming “capitalism” (and it will), it gets regulated, taxed, and threatened into submission. Or it takes its winnings and goes.

      Oh horror. Oh poverty! Oh nothing. Look at the economic miracle of Nazi Germany. The real “secret” they don’t want you to know about.

    • Yohannon December 8, 2020 at 1:18 pm #

      See the post (not mine) at the top of the page. That’s a partial list anyway. So far I think it’s the Russian sputnik and the Salufi-Pasteur one.

      • Yohannon December 8, 2020 at 1:20 pm #

        No, sorry my mistake. The latter is free of baby parts, but is still the new mRNA technology. It’s all new to me.

    • GreenAlba December 8, 2020 at 1:27 pm #

      JohnAZ

      I keep posting this, in the hope that it will be helpful to everyone who is concerned about (a) mRNA or (b) human cell lines. But it seems to me that no-one is interested enough to actually look at it.

      It flags *known* information on the use of human cell lines at various stages (red triangle), and the list is organised according to the vaccine methodology. I think the mRNA vaccines are under the fourth table heading down. They’re all together, so easy to identify.

      Perhaps you could bookmark it, then if someone asks again (they keep asking, and I keep answering …) you can take a turn at passing on the information. 🙂

      • GreenAlba December 8, 2020 at 1:30 pm #

        The Sputnik vaccine, as I have said elsewhere, doesn’t use mRNA but does use a human cell line from 1973, although there is no confirmation that the fetal remains from which the cells were harvested were the result of an elective abortion or a spontaneous one (miscarriage).

            Why does saying that one particular vaccine is the poster boy for inadequate testing mean that the others are necessarily adequately tested? They’re the poster boy, sorry.

            To my knowledge only the Russians have so far started a vaccination programme in the community before completing phase 3 trials. They approved their vaccine on the basis of two trial groups of 38 people each.

            “And I know what a blow it is to you that the Sanofi-Pasteur vaccine does not use the baby parts from long ago.”

            What are you talking about? I counted 20 vaccines in that table that also don’t use ‘baby parts from long ago’, to the knowledge of the compilers of the information (there are question marks where the information just isn’t available – some of those 20 have no question marks).

            Why would that be a blow to me? You are a fantasist. I wish you would quit with your calumnies. They do you no credit.

          • GreenAlba December 8, 2020 at 2:19 pm #

            If I wished to promote the use of fetal cell lines in vaccines, I’d be better NOT having provided people with the information needed to avoid them if they wish, no??

    COVID political hoax

    The concern about antibodies is phony. Antibodies are temporary and the immune system itself destroys the antibodies that initial infection creates. Both the antibodies and excess T cells are destructive to the body.

    Whether long term immunity occurs depends on memory B cells and memory T cells. These are programmed to react quickly if the antigen is detected again. B cells become antibodies and T cells attack chemically.

    It is the presence of these memory cells that determines if the reaction is seasonal or long term.

    We haven’t even Heard this discussed. Will we need shots every year depends on memory cell production and the ability of the virus to mutate.

    The Supreme Court rejected a Republican request to overturn election results in Pennsylvania that had already been certified and submitted.
    Tuesday, December 8, 2020 5:09 PM EST

    The justices said they would not block a ruling from Pennsylvania’s highest court that had rejected a challenge to the use of mail ballots in the state. The Supreme Court’s order was all of one sentence, and there were no noted dissents.

        The ruling doesn’t give a reason, so it could be on merit. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which also threw out the case, did note that the case could have been brought well before the election but, as far as I know, didn’t give that as the definitive reason for rejecting it.

        A gun* on my hip and the right to arrest
        I’m a guy who’s the boss on this highway
        So watch out what you’re doin’ when you’re drivin’ my way
        If you break the law, you’ll hear from me, I know
        I’m workin’ for the state, I’m the highway patrol

        *Model 28 Smith & Wesson aka Saturday Night Special in .357 Magnum

        I’m the highway patrol, the highway patrol
        My hours are long and my pay is low…

        That probably explains the choice of this particular model.

        If you dont mind my asking-did you parents tell you “Children should be rarely seen,never heard” ? Is not it a wonderful advice to abide by when you meet nice BLM/Antifa people fighting for Justice ?

        That is what nice,polite,invisible grown-up children used during the Vietnam War:

        SMITH & WESSON MODEL 39 ‘HUSH PUPPY’

        https://www.thevintagenews.com/2016/03/17/smith-wessons-hush-puppy-used-us-navy-seals-vietnam-war/

        This model is discontinued though.Nowadays US Navy uses Heckler & Koch MK 23, paying $1160 apiece,silencer and laser sight including.

        What is good for US Navy should be good for LE cats like you too.Order one directly from H&K for evaluation.Then keep evaluating,and evaluating,and evaluating…

          John,
          I owned one of the first model 39’s available…not a steel frame, but very early production…1970. The mighty model 28 is IDENTICAL to the model 27, only with a parkerized-type finish rather than polished blue…and a bit of checkering. I currently own both…I mean, a guy I know currently owns both, and there is no difference in function.

          Got rid of the Model 39 years ago…ditto the model 59.

    The truck driving whistleblower — he of the trailer full of pre-filled ballots on his load from NY to PA — was grilled by fed agents about how and why he aligned with lawyer Phill Klein. No questions/concerns about missing trailer, but plenty of veiled threats to what could happen to the trucker’s family if he didn’t back down.

    Steve Bannon asked him if missing trailers ever happened at any time to any of his trucking confreres. The answer: “It doesn’t happen.”

      The antiTrump sentiment is at all levels of government. IOW, all levels of government are against the people supporting Trump. The fools do not realize they are committing suicide for themselves and the country.

    ” I think that a huge problem for the US is that it really has no reason to exist as a country. What does it buy you to be a citizen? People come here to tear off a piece of the US for themselves. No affiliation, loyalty, affection, just gimme, gimme, gimme. ”

    It has always seemed to me that the biggest item in that list is where , for example —

    A person moves from Pennsylvania to South Carolina , but not because it is their dream to live in South Carolina.

    They move to South Carolina NOT because they love South Carolina , it’s people , or its culture.

    On the contrary , they HATE and / or HOLD IN CONTEMPT South Carolina , its people , and its culture.

    Compounding all of this a hundred fold , they do not even see themselves as un-invited foreigners , with any compelling reason to act as gracious guests ,

    but view themselves as being at home , even though they would be by any other definition ( except the most extreme Leftist definition ) hostile invaders.

    And , of course , never ask themselves the question , ” If the place they came from was so fucking great , then why did they leave ? And if this place is so bad , why don’t they go home ? ”

    In this way I would argue the greatest damage was done to the many parts of America by Americans , long before any significant number of Mexicans , Chinese , or other group recognized as foreign , showed up.

    — And STILL does the greatest damage.

    It often seems to me that instead of , or at least before , turning a suspicious eye on foreigners , you should instead take a good hard look at those who , though they have US birth certificates , so obviously in every other way hate the 100 – square mile area they are living in .

    But then that raises the idea that the outcome of the American Civil War maybe was not a positive outcome , and the US empire is not such a good thing.

      Agree with you on domestic movers.

      But both are responsible for the US losing its identity.

      America has no ethnic identity at all, no common culture, just a bunch of late arriving gimmes. It is finished as a nation.

      Biden says unify? Under what banner, all the “nice” people spit on the flag, kneel or burn the flag. For fifty percent of the population, there is no America to be patriotic too.

      And so far, when Biden calls for the people to support an American cause, he will find out from his supporters that there is no America.

      When I was in grade school, they taught us about the carpetbaggers & the scalawags. It’s my understanding they don’t teach about carpetbaggers & scalawags anymore, but it wouldn’t hurt.

      A “carpetbagger” was an opportunist, not necessarily of the small hat variety, who headed into the stricken South after the War of Northern Aggression to reap profits. The scalawags (pronounced “scalliwags”) were turncoat native Southrons waiting with open arms to help them.

      • KesaAnna December 8, 2020 at 7:41 pm #

        Often these days I feel sorry for patriotic Americans.

        Like it or not , Manifest Destiny DOES dovetail nicely with Bolshevik world revolution , which dovetails nicely with Globalist New World Order.

        And if there is nothing particularly out of order about a Floridian moving to Kansas and showing his ass and throwing his weight around with money , then there is nothing particularly out of order about a Pakistani moving to Virginia and showing his ass and throwing his weight around with money.

        Correct recitation of history. Now history repeats. This time illegal aliens are the carpetbaggers. Politicians and their corporate overlords are the scalawags. Trump and his supporters are deemed to be the new Ku Klux Klan attempting to resist the invading scum and their treasonous enablers. And so the wheel turns once more…

    SCOTUS just sent the message that they want no part of this election. Texas’ suit will end up the same. A conservative SCOTUS will not delve into issues they consider state’s rights.

    This voting corruption will be at state level in the future even with federal offices being decided.

    Trump’s job is not done however. He needs to work to block the socialization of the country from outside the beltway. It will be interesting.

    • JohnAZ December 8, 2020 at 7:26 pm #

      And treat the Dems exactly the way they treated him. It should be fun seeing him on a loose rein.

      Start by being in Mar-a-Lago on Inauguration Day. Announcing a 2024 run at a rally at the moment of the swearing in would be sweet.

            I would love to see a 100% boycott of the Biden inauguration/usurpation ceremony. Not one single Republican with a conscience should show up, unless part of a “Stop the Steal” protest march.

            True Americans will not recognize nor take direction from this Potted Plant pretending to be a duly and lawfully elected president.

            Trump should set up shop in Mar-A-Lago. Continue to lead the Real America in opposition and steadfast resistance against the Biden/Harris pretenders. Declare all EO’s issued by Biden as “null and void.” Red States should ignore all unconstitutional laws, EO’s, bureaucratic edicts, etc.

            Biden might be able to govern the Blue States that are all anxious to drop trou and take it up the ass. Red States will opt out of that shit fest.

        JohnAZ – JK’s election was famously shonky, wasn’t it? It was a very narrow margin and quite possibly stolen from Nixon. The dirty old northern Democrats from Chicago & the Northeast knew how to stuff a ballot box, back then.

        Is this déjà vu all over again?

        Kennedy won a 303 to 219 Electoral College victory and is generally considered to have won the national popular vote by 112,827, a margin of 0.17 percent. As Mr. Creosote had it explained to him, “it is wafer-thin…”

I’m sure EO 13848 is the one that will finally stick though, not like Biden abdicating for Hillary or the Georgia recount or Y2k or that time in 2008 peak oil was gonna take center stage but then it didn’t because of shale oil.

    At long last this whole deep state election fraud conspiracy seems to be in its final throes, and as such, the inane chatter here predicting Trump’s Phenix like metamorphosis has begun to wane.

    ****WARNING****

    THE FOLLOWING TEXT IS MORE THAN 25 WORDS LONG, CONTAINS NO REFERENCES TO TELEVISION SHOWS, AND REQUIRES ADULT LEVELS OF READING COMPREHENSION!

    Here is the meat of the text of the Texas complaint anent what is being charged. (Numbering and some change in paragraphing for ease of reading is mine)

    https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/22O155/162953/20201207234611533_TX-v-State-Motion-2020-12-07%20FINAL.pdf

    1. Non-legislative actors’ purported amendments to States’ duly enacted election laws, in violation of the Electors Clause’s vesting State legislatures with plenary authority regarding the appointment of presidential electors.

    2. Intrastate differences in the treatment of voters, with more favorable allotted to voters – whether lawful or unlawful – in areas administered by local government under Democrat control and with populations with higher ratios of Democrat voters than other areas of Defendant States.

    3. The appearance of voting irregularities in the Defendant States that would be consistent with the unconstitutional relaxation of ballot-integrity protections in those States’ election laws.

    All these flaws – even the violations of state election law – violate one or more of the federal requirements for elections (i.e., equal protection, due process, and the Electors Clause) and thus arise under federal law. See Bush v Gore, 531 U.S. 98, 113 (2000) (“significant departure from the legislative scheme for appointing
    Presidential electors presents a federal constitutional question”) (Rehnquist, C.J., concurring).

    Plaintiff State respectfully submits that the foregoing types of electoral irregularities exceed the hanging-chad saga of the 2000 election in their degree of departure from both state and federal law. Moreover, these flaws cumulatively preclude knowing who legitimately won
    the 2020 election and threaten to cloud all future elections.

    Taken together, these flaws affect an outcome-determinative numbers of popular votes in a group of States that cast outcome-determinative numbers of electoral votes.

    This Court should grant leave to file the complaint and, ultimately, enjoin the use of unlawful election results without review and ratification by the Defendant States’ legislatures and remand to the Defendant States’ respective legislatures to appoint Presidential Electors in a manner consistent with the Electors Clause and pursuant to 3 U.S.C. § 2.

  107. Kim December 9, 2020 at 1:14 am #

    Of course, I cannot paste the entirety of the States’ submissions here but – despite its length – I do recommend that readers here download and browse it.

    Here is one of the many different types of evidence and arguments adduced in its pages (original numbering):

    9. Expert analysis using a commonly accepted statistical test further raises serious questions as to the integrity of this election.

    10. The probability of former Vice President Biden winning the popular vote in the four Defendant States—Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—independently given President Trump’s early lead in those States as of 3 a.m. on November 4,
    2020, is less than one in a quadrillion, or 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000.

    For former Vice President Biden to win these four States collectively, the odds of that event happening decrease to less than one in a quadrillion to the fourth power (i.e., 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,0004). See Decl. of Charles J. Cicchetti, Ph.D. (“Cicchetti Decl.”) at ¶¶ 14-21, 30-31. See App. 4a-7a, 9a.

    11. The same less than one in a quadrillion statistical improbability of Mr. Biden winning the popular vote in the four Defendant States—Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—independently exists when Mr. Biden’s performance in each of those Defendant States is compared to former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton’s
    performance in the 2016 general election and President Trump’s performance in the 2016 and 2020 general elections. Again, the statistical improbability of Mr. Biden winning the popular vote in these four States collectively is 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000 5. Id.10-13, 17-21, 30-31.

    • FreddieMars December 9, 2020 at 4:09 am #

      Well, if you’re into “quadrillions” you MUST be right!…wait WHICH ‘commonly accepted statistical test’ is being referred to here, exactly? I ASSUME it’s named in the pleadings. The Justices can the YOUTUBE its debunking. We should have a decision within hours of the case being presented.

    16. In addition to injunctive relief for this election, Plaintiff State seeks declaratory relief for all presidential elections in the future.

    This problem is clearly capable of repetition yet evading review. The integrity of our constitutional democracy requires that states conduct presidential elections in accordance with the rule of law and federal constitutional guarantees.

            1. You did not use “neologism” correctly. LOL is not a neologism. At best, it is an acronym.

            neologism
            n. A new word, expression, or usage.
            n. The creation or use of new words or senses.

            Something strange about that, Kim. I am not one to talk about stuff like this, but I had a gut feeling from early on that Trump may end up on Rushmore. Just a feeling.

            The idea still seems absurd to me on one level, but somehow, I think it may happen. And let’s be honest, no other president would dare do what he is doing. He is fighting a system of corruption that is so entrenched, many would still say the task is impossible.

    It appears that Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and South Dakota will be joining in with Texas in its lawsuit at SCOTUS. This is an outcome determinative case and Scotus is requiring responses from Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin by 3 on Thursday. Meaning it isn’t being taken lightly despite the wishes of the purveyors of the Biden/Kamala mirage.

    And the reporting on the other PA lawsuit today was really swarmed and hijacked by fake noozers. The lawsuit was not tossed at all. Injunctive relief was not granted. That’s all. The case is still before the court. Fraud is still fraud even if certified dummies. and PA made clear they don’t care if invalid votes are certified. So its clear they have no regard for the Constitution as is being alleged in both lawsuits.

        The Attorney Generals within the states are the ones who will be enjoining the states in the lawsuit. Its a national presidential election. State legislatures are the only governing bodies constitutionally permitted to alter state laws regarding elections. State laws in the target swing states were altered by judges and Secretaries of States for this presidential election rather than the legislatures. Such actions do not follow the Constitution and therefore the presidential election has been irreparably compromised. It is really not that difficult to understand. If one state violates its own election laws in an unconstitutional manner then that action can certainly defraud American voters in other states since it is a national election after all.

    The photo and commentary on this is fascinating.

    Russell Lowe, the spy for China who infiltrated Diane Feinstein’s office is now an activist in San Francisco.

    Let’s look at a photo.

    https://mobile.twitter.com/FowlesMurphy

    That’s Lowe on the left.

    “In the middle is Mike Wong. Last year, he told the communist China Daily that the US was stirring up violence in Hong Kong and any US response:

    “would punish Hong Kong for being freer and more democratic than America.”

    “On the right of the photo is Eric Mar, a San Francisco activist and Democrat party politician.

    Mar is a former leader of the hard-left Chinese Progressive Association.

    They recently funded the Black Futures Lab led by Black Lives Matter founder Alicia Garza.

    And Garza?

    She’s best friends with Kamala Harris’ family (see link for one example).

    So there you go.

    Chinese spy Russell Lowe is not only still active in San Francisco, he’s working with people who are very close to Kamala Harris’ inner circle.”

    He wasn’t arrested by the FBI or at least expelled from the country? Huh?

It’s almost like being in the thick of battle and the Commanding Officer runs away? Or, the Minister in the church is openly diddling the kids in the congregation?

            Actually when they flipped the votes from Trump to Biden they subtracted from Trump and added to by as much as double or so the experts are saying.
            It could be as high as 8 million votes so doing some basic math that would make Trump @81 million and Biden @72 million minus the mail in fraud Bidens votes could actually be only in the 60 million range which would make far more sense considering he could not fill a small hall for his pathetic rallies.

  121. freetrapper December 9, 2020 at 10:25 am #

    “A resolving picture” indeed, though perhaps not in the way the tinfoil league of conspiracy theorists here would have it. Those of you who kept insisting on here that things would resolve in favor of Trump in the supreme court, well, let’s just say that if you’ve been contemplating quitting your day job to be the New Nostradamus? Don’t.

    From the latest election coverage, bolds and brackets mine:

    “Trump’s dangerous DELUSIONS about a stolen election represent the most overt attempt in modern history by a President to overthrow the will of the voters. But they have reached the point of no return after the CONSERVATIVE MAJORITY Supreme Court largely crushed what remaining HALLUCINATORY hopes Trump harbored of reversing his defeat…

    The denial of Pennsylvania Republicans’ request to block the certification of their state’s results, for which there were no noted dissents, was a humiliating repudiation of Trump’s fundamental misunderstanding that three justices that HE INSTALLED on the Court would swing him a disputed election. It also showed that EVIDENCE-FREE CONSPIRACY THEORIES MIGHT THRILL THE PRESIDENT’S BASE AND HIS MEDIA PROPAGANDISTS [present company apparently included] BUT THEY DON’T CUT IT IN COURT.”

    It’s sad to see a rare clade of open minded thinkers such as this blog and its readers so recently represented so suddenly join the lunatic, sore-loser, ideologue fringe. On the other hand, this seems to describe most of us today. Left or Right TM we just don’t believe anything we don’t ‘like’ anymore. (Facebook’s fault?) So you’ve got lots of company. And given the high degree to which human beings crave affirmation, this is one positive for you-all. Your old tribe may shake their heads and walk away, but a vast new mullet-sporting, flag-waving, middle-finger thrusting, spittle-foaming, going to the pipe-fitter for advice on their medical issues crowd is right there to enfold you. There will be no uneasy phase of thinking for yourself. Or thinking at all, as the case may be.

          ray – “WTF is wrong with all of you who think he is the guy to save you?? He should be in a mental institution.” Exactly. The fact that so many – present company here included – fail not only to see this, but to have seen it at first glance – is WAY more ominous to me than the reality of Trump as president. Even the people who knew how to think no longer being able to do so. It is like staring at your own death, standing there in the room. That what gold was to be found here on this blog and comments section has so swiftly turned to tin? A chilling harbinger that our doom is truly right in the dooryard now.

          SoftStar – no one’s framing anything in a prejudiced veneer of any kind. We’re just paying attention. As in, “look at the green grass.” It’s not difficult to cut to the chase here. Unless you’re a conspiracy theorist. Then it’s impossible.

            capt.

            You are right about one thing. It is different.

            The Social Security and Medicare systems belong to the people. Those checks are my money that I paid into for 40 years. Those dollars are backed up.

            Think why it was created in the first place. People at the time were too dumb to save for their retirement, living paycheck to paycheck. Most of savings were wiped out, urban economies collapsed, share croppers lost their farms to the tractor, older folks kept their jobs blocking new jobs for young folks.

            SSA was a way to get people to retire and ensure that poor planners did not starve.

            It has been “liberalized” over the years to be expanded to include disability. Good decision? Matter of opinion.

            When the SS lock box is violated by the general fund to pay for healthcare for illegals, that is where SS gets its bad name. The Deep State finances itself on the back of SSA and Medicare. And yes, the SSA fund is a figment of our imagination, being really part of the 26 trillion dollar debt.

            It is a government mandated capital pool created to protect folks from their own stupidity.

            BTW, if I did not get the check, it would be okay.

            Encroaching socialism is what I take exception to, the idea that the very stupid government can make decisions that affect my life is an anathema. The current crop of Lefties want to run our everyday lives, everything. America, the republic, ceases to exist when that happens. We are close.

        • BackRowHeckler December 9, 2020 at 1:53 pm #

          Chauvin was a good cop enforcing laws passed by the legislature and signed by the Governor. Floyd was a criminal dosed on fentanyl and meth, passing counterfeit money and resisting arrest. Chauvin will be acquitted, and I hope he gets back pay and his seniority on the PD restored.

    Are there any philosophical works on the nature and scope of Responsibility?

    The Law basically imposes different degrees of Responsibility based upon the nature of the relationship in question. For example, for some relationships (e.g. Attorney – Client, Trustee – Beneficiary, Doctor – Patient, etc.) there is a “Fiduciary Duty”. The law imposes zero duty of responsibility upon politicians to the citizens. Similarly, newspapers (and the MSM) have zero responsibility to tell the truth to their readers, and they are free to lie their asses off with impunity.

    I’m not sure what the prevailing standard of responsibility is imposed upon Spouses? But it seems rather loose, particularly in the state of California? Do you remember the character, “Little Bill” in the movie “Boogie Nights”? The American voter is a bit like “Little Bill”?

        “Something has to be done…”

        They are private companies and, simply as a matter of fact, they have the right to decide what content goes on their platforms.

        That said, it’s good to see them finally taking some responsibility for the algorithm-assisted propaganda, misinformation and other assorted garbage that they have been profiting from for far too long.

        • Yohannon December 9, 2020 at 5:30 pm #

          Culture is upstream of politics. To whom much is given much is asked. They have a duty to allow free speech on their platforms. Since they will not do the right thing voluntarily, they must be made to do it.

          • HapMan December 10, 2020 at 12:04 am #

            Perhaps they have such a duty. And perhaps they also have a duty to identify and down-regulate misinformation and propaganda on their platforms. The two things can co-exist. And I think attention to the latter is, in the long run, a sensible business decision. And as duties based on good citizenship, not law, they can and should be balanced against one another.

          • Night Owl December 10, 2020 at 3:27 am #

            Sounds nice, but since the focus is on what exactly is labelled misinformation, your argument is based in a lie, as you are a liar.

            In this case, news about election fraud cannot be censored, as there are real legal challenges based on hard evidence playing out in the legal theater.

            To censor such information, and to advocate such censorship is the job of the propagandist and liar.

            As so often, your arguments are easily defeated by the most minor attempts at breaking the surface.

            Because you are a liar.

          • HapMan December 10, 2020 at 6:39 pm #

        Until Section 230 is revised to stop censorship, it will continue to happen, and Twitter, FB, and co. will continue to act as propaganda outlets.

        The problem is far broader than social media though. Personally, I find google’s rigged algorithms far more of a danger to the free and open exchange of information.

      Just sit on the fence for the next 100 years.Experiments are much more fun to watch from afar than to participate in.If one of these days we cant fart in public w/o showing “Covid19 Vaccination ID” then I’ll order this f… ID from Dark Net markets or will buy one on the street.

      Classical example:before WWI nobody in his right mind used vegetable oil for food.Butter,schmaltz,lard,tallow-thats it.Only Dagos used olive oil, not because it was so wonderful but because there were 100 poor Dagos for one scrawny pig in Southern Italy.

      During the WWI somebody came up with margarine. “Crisco ! Better than butter ! And cheaper too !”

      In ’40s and ’50’s people started keeling over from heart attacks en masse.

      New enemy was found – Fat ! All fat is bad ! Lets eat grains !

      Yeah ! Grains are major component of cattle feed.Eat grains and look like cattle !

      Now almost everybody is fat.Or suffers from Alzheimer because the brain is 99% fat.

      F..ck their new-fangled diets,beyond-meat sandwiches,tofu and soy milk which causes rabidity in BLM/Antifa puppies.

          I looked up his bio-Theoretical Physics degree,Princeton;Aerospace Engineering degree,Harvard & Yale School of Journalism.

          In 1955 Ike suffered his first heart attack,doctors put him on Mediterranean diet,Ike started gaining weight and his first heart attack was not his last.At the end of his second term he looked like fat chunky irascible pink-faced baby.

          • GreenAlba December 9, 2020 at 8:17 pm #

            “What about long term testing, “genius”? Why isn’t that part of “the science”?”

            Long-term testing is indeed part of the science. The trial volunteers will continue to be monitored. But logic suggests that unless significant numbers of people take the vaccine that part of the science won’t have much data to go on. That’s the reality.

            My other half, like other health and care workers, was given a number to call to make an appointment if they wish to take up the offer of a vaccination. People are saying they can’t get through (neither could he, nor an acquaintance of mine who’s a care worker), from which we may conclude that demand is reasonably high.

            I’m reserving judgement – which is easy anyway as I doubt I’ll be offered the vaccine until at least next summer. Other half and I are both adults and we make out own decisions. His are more medically informed, of course, but he’s not an immunologist either.

            But the balance of opinion on the docs’ blogs (ordinary, everyday doctors, not WHO officials) seems to be that the theoretical risks of the vaccine are outweighed by the risks of the disease, for most people. And yes, I know that ‘most people’ don’t get the disease badly. So that would mean that the evidence suggests that any ‘bad reactions’ to the vaccine will be even more rare than bad reactions to the virus. Time will tell.

          • Yohannon December 10, 2020 at 12:26 am #

            For most people? It’s a cold, silly. If you said most people over 70, maybe, but you didn’t!

            “For most people? It’s a cold, silly. If you said most people over 70, maybe, but you didn’t!”

            I’m not over 70, but I have reason to believe it wouldn’t necessarily just be a cold if I contracted it. Even more so my husband, who is two years younger than me, but male, which makes him more at risk (I think 70% of deaths are in men). And he has other health issues that put him at risk from the disease (but also some that MIGHT put him at risk from the Pfizer vaccine (but not yet, to my knowledge, from some of the other vaccines?).

            It (the virus, not the vaccine) has killed 120 British doctors and nurses, who are, by definition, not over 70 in almost all cases. Some were in their 30s and 40s, and clearly well enough to work.

            So, just for doctors and nurses, 120 have died of Covid, from looking after their patients. So far, two have had an allergic reaction to the vaccine, but are now perfectly fine. There’s the beginnings of a risk assessment for you, if you were a doctor, nurse or care worker. Others can do their own risk assessment. Sometimes they’ll get it right, sometimes they won’t.

          • GreenAlba December 10, 2020 at 8:01 am #

            Also, with reference to ‘most people’, I specifically pointed out that ‘most people’ were not at serious risk from the virus (but, even in the healthy you don’t always know who the others are – that’s why we talk about ‘risk’ in the first place), but equally, ‘most people’ will not be at risk from the vaccines either.

            How’s it going in Russia? How many allergic reactions? How many other ‘bad reactions’? Just curious as I haven’t read anything about it. I wonder how open they’ll be about it. The UK seems to have told people immediately about the two bad reactions to the Pfizer vaccine. Isn’t that the way it’s supposed to work?

          • Yohannon December 10, 2020 at 12:04 pm #

        “Yeah, just heard on the news, bad reactions in the UK to the vaccine.”

        C’mon, brh, you can do better than that. Why didn’t you mention how many people had ‘bad reactions’? Because it was two. Two people who have in the past had very serious allergic reactions to other substances.

        Nobody in the phase 3 trials had reactions like that, but two health workers have had an allergic reaction (to the adjuvants?) and are perfectly fine.

        But as a precaution, until these cases are looked into, people with existing serious allergies have been advised not to take this particular vaccine for now.

        My own reaction was to ask my husband (who has an allergy) if it was going to change his plans to accept an invitation next week to have the vaccine (he’s a health worker too, and has 3 or 4 reasons to be susceptible to the virus – the virus, not the vaccine).

        His answer to me was ‘Why? Does the vaccine contain prawns?’.

          People like your husband with their “food allergies” make me laugh.

          There you go. How do you like to hear somebody’s health concerns laughed off?

          And

          “But as a precaution, until these cases are looked into,…”

          By whom? By the used-car-dealers who are trying to sell us this wreck?

          And when they find nothing wrong – as assuredly they will – you will be required by law or other constriants to take the vaccine. Against a disease that occasionally typically kills already-sick people in the deep twilight of their lives.

          The entire scheme is total madness.

          It is Lysenko planting peas in the arctic and everyone applauding the genuius of soviet science.

          Even if it had killed twice the numbers that are claimed, the reaction is insanity.

          Once your rights are gone, they don’t come back. Ever.

            “People like your husband with their “food allergies” make me laugh.

            There you go. How do you like to hear somebody’s health concerns laughed off?”

            He wouldn’t be at all offended if you laughed off his health concerns. He has a sense of humour. Even about his allergy. You should hear him on the ‘gluten intolerant’ (as opposed to the gluten intolerant) who don’t even know what gluten is.

            He’s allergic to prawns. Loves them but developed an allergy, as in his head swells and his eyes disappear behind swollen lids. Et cetera. Death, eventually, if nothing was done.

            But he wouldn’t mind if you laughed. If he was an American he wouldn’t go anywhere without an Epipen, but he isn’t so he doesn’t even have one. He just avoids prawns. I asked him if perhaps he should keep one in the house and he just said ‘nah, you gotta die of something’.

            I don’t know whose health concerns you think I’m laughing off. You clearly haven’t read my other comments on Covid vaccination. Or at least not in good faith. But that wouldn’t be unusual.

          • GreenAlba December 9, 2020 at 8:37 pm #

            “And when they find nothing wrong – as assuredly they will – ”

            ‘They’, in this case, are the MRHA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency). I don’t know what ‘nothing wrong’ means in this context. We know that two people with strong allergic reactions to other substances have had allergic reactions to something in the vaccine – most probably the adjuvants. So it will have to be established which substances caused the allergy. In the meantime people with allergies are advised not to get the vaccination. Possibly people with allergies will be advised to wait for a difference vaccine to be available.

            Some people are allergic to penicillin – nobody has suggested we ban penicillin.

          • GreenAlba December 9, 2020 at 8:43 pm #

            In case you missed the point, when hubby said ‘does the vaccine contain prawns?’ that was a joke. It didn’t mean he wasn’t concerned or that he was concerned. Just that he’s Irish and he makes jokes about his own health concerns.

            I’ve just looked again now, and the most I can find is two cases of anaphylaxis and one possible allergic reaction.

            https://www.reuters.com/article/health-coronavirus-britain-vaccine-idUSKBN28J1D1

            Even CBS is saying two people, as far as I can see.

            https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-vaccine-pfizer-shot-uk-warning-people-with-history-of-significant-allergic-reactions/

            My mother had a severe reaction to penicillin once – her tongue swelled up and she thought she was going to choke.

            But penicillin is a life-saver, and there’s no way of knowing that people are allergic to it until they’ve been given it. Life is full of risks. As I said, I don’t know what I’ll do by the time I’m offered the vaccine. I have no allergies and the flu vaccine was fine, bar one night with an arm I couldn’t lie on, which I class as ‘negligible’ in terms of a downside. I think maybe my husband should wait for another vaccine, but it’s his decision.

            But I appreciate you’re not arguing one way or the other, overall, brh. Neither am I, for individuals, who need to make their own decisions.

            Alba,
            Why would you want to keep a prawn in the house? Granted, they are cute, and some have sold their smaller cousins as “sea monkeys”, but how could you avoid it’s recriminatory stare?

          • GreenAlba December 10, 2020 at 2:00 pm #

            EF, haha.

            If it knew what he once did to some of its cousins, BBQ-wise, it would be more than a recriminatory stare, it would be all-out warfare. We took the advice of the guy who sold us the live prawns (langoustines, not Norwegian). Although he offered three alternatives.

            My daughter and I were horrified. My husband and my daughter’s then boyfriend (then a trainee chef) thought it was fine.

            It wasn’t. I hope no other prawn ever finds out about it.

    Man oh man. There’s so much going on now that it makes one’s head spin. It’s impossible to keep track of all the craziness going on in the world except in the most superficial manner. As Lenin once said, “there are decades when nothing happens; & there are weeks when decades happen.” It’s a target-rich environment for news-junkies these days.

    I don’t know who writes opinion for the website ‘revolver’ but they need a new slogan: they are so much more than the “new Drudge” that it ain’t funny. This editorial report {link} of the speech given by the Chinese professor Di Dongsheng with imbedded video on the selling-out of our rulers is worth an extended quote:

    “Tucker is correct here to emphasize the role of the American ruling class, particularly that of Wall Street, in facilitating China’s rise and ability to exploit America. Indeed, it would be easy to watch the video of the Chinese Professor and fume at the Chinese Communist Party for their nefarious influence operations in the United States. But that would be taking away the wrong point, or at least an incomplete one. The real scandal isn’t how wicked the Chinese are. They are just doing what the elites of any country should do — look out for the interests of their country and its people. America is rich and technologically advanced, but its ruling class is corrupt, degenerate, incompetent, dysfunctional, and all-too-eager to sell out yet another morsel of America for short-term financial gain.

    From very early on in his presidential campaign, President Trump would always frame the Chinese threat in these terms. That is, he doesn’t blame China for doing what is best for the Chinese — he blames the stupid, weak, and corrupt leaders of the U.S. for letting them do it.

    The problem with China, then, isn’t really a problem with China at all. It’s a problem with our own unworthy and illegitimate ruling class. It is not as though the American ruling class is patriotic, competent, and intelligent when it comes to most issues, but has some unique blindspot or weakness when it comes to China. If this were the case, it would make sense to emphasize the particular dangers of China in order to direct the hypothetically patriotic, intelligent, and functional energies of the American ruling class to this problem.

    But this is not the case — that is, the American ruling class is not patriotic, competent and intelligent on most issues. Quite the contrary, on just about every issue that has mattered over the past several decades, the American ruling class has been stupid, corrupt, dysfunctional, and parasitic. If China disappeared, they would simply be selling the country out to India, or Saudi Arabia, or Vietnam, or some other rising country (and in fact, they are doing this already, just to a lesser extent). Our ruling class has failed us on China because they have failed us on everything. It follows that there will be no sound China policy that benefits actual Americans until there is a legitimate ruling class in the United States. For this reason, emphasizing the wickedness and danger of China will be less effective than emphasizing the utter failure and illegitimacy of the American ruling class.”

    Swalwell & his Chinese paramour, Feinstein & her Chinese chaffeur, & so many others, both the dual passport holders of all nationalities & the craven native-born with no loyalties except to the almighty dollar. Folks, we have been thoroughly sold down the river. I urge you to read the article at the link, & listen to the video. This is why “Trumpism” as our enemies call it, will not die until the Counter-Revolution is complete. And yes, we are in an early phase of it now.

    As the picture resolves, the nation continues to dissolve. Trump is out. Harris-Biden are in. Maybe Georgia will help delay the oncoming drastic, dreadful dissolution after Trump’s dethronement.

    Just when you thought the fraud hysteria was over, Texas sues four states over the election, trying to stop the Trump presidency from going the way of the Alamo.

    He’s got the grip and he’s got the whip. Biden has whipped the Kraken and has the Lefty lash crackin’ with zing and sting across the backs and derrieres of the deplorables. They’ll squeal and yelp, but it won’t much help, and Kamala will be the mistress/master in Dominatrix kinky, enjoying every sound.

    The Democrats can now fine tune and expand their folders of fraud, although they may not need them as much in the future. The demographics will dictate their dominance as open borders, immigration, and amnesty multiply their minions by millions.

    No, it wasn’t ‘Seven Days in May’, it was seven months of Trump in 2020, seven months in which a stupefied public saw ego, arrogance, and narcissism ooze from the president’s every pore, a president who dithered as many died. Would a different approach have guaranteed victory? Who knows, but looking at the numbers in swing states, a victory for Trump seems likely. Yeah, is what it is, which isn’t much consolation.

    Blacks like Christopher Sebastian Parker, dime a dozen, have said that Trump was ‘The Great White Hope’. He was and now he’s gone. But even he could not stop the inevitable. Whites will not be in the majority by the Die Centennial, being somewhere around 40% of the population as compared to about 62% now. White Britons will be a minority by 2070 if current trends continue. Great Britain will be one of the most diverse nations on Earth.

    So the picture is resolving. The Deep State and the globalists have won for now, and their dream of a diverse, harmonious, conforming, and compliantly consuming New World Order comes closer to reality. But how close will the dream ever get to the asymptotes of assimilation and adversity?

    Yes, the picture is resolving, its screen of political pixels becoming clearer as the Democrats work their knavish keyboard. Right now you can see their triumphant victory parade, still somewhat pixelated as they Photoshop the fraud. In the end, the result will be no work of Art. It will be political machine code manipulation only, soulless and inhuman. Resist, fight if you must, but there will be no stopping it until the coming ugly realities destroy the dream and the delusion.

    At the same time, the picture of ‘old America’ and ‘old Europe’ is dissolving. History, monuments and culture are being cancelled as the great achievements of the West and Whites are looked upon with disdain. We didn’t build that, slaves of one form or the other built that. The mighty construct of civilization itself is being transformed into a towering turd world tinderbox.

    How long before the great museums are mauled by the marauders and Turner and Titian and Tintoretto are tossed into the fire? How long before Michelangelo, Matisse and Monet are mutilated and maimed? Before Borromini and Bernini are banished and the great books burned? Before French chateaus are made to crumble and the Paris Opera House obliterated? Watch the demise as the minarets rise.

    The resolving picture will eventually show the gruesome convergence of destructive Leftist policies and the immutable forces dragging us into the coming Die-Centennial. As I said, resist, fight if you must, but no matter what you do you won’t be able to stop what’s coming.

For me, it was when they toppled a statue of Cervantes. A genius, compassionate, witty human who created a masterpiece for the ages, a Spaniard who fought for his kingdom against the Turks, was maimed, captured and enslaved. Toppled, disrespected, canceled. Just for being White.

          “And even if not, the whole electoral system has to be reformed and Biden’s election will go down as a low point in American history.”

          You are right, of course, but I strongly believe that when the God Emperor stands at the dais on Jan 20, before a real audience of perhaps one million (occasionally breaking into spontaneous chants of “We love you!”), he will focus on the opposite.

          He will say that while the election process was brutal and wrong in so many ways – and certainly nothing like it should ever be allowed again – it was nonetheless ultimately a triumph, as it has so convincingly proven the resilence of the Constitution, the wisdom of the Founding Fathers, and the indominatable love of freedom and fairness of the American people and their determination to protect it.

          It will be a speech worthy of Gettysburg.

          I’m having trouble believing that you really believe what you just said. It must have merit because various state AGs have signed on? Would you use the same logic about a lawsuit led by Dem AGs? I think you’re more grownsed up than that.

          The lawsuit is a PR stunt, even more so than many of the others, if that’s possible. Like the others, it will fail, except insofar as it elicits a pardon for the Texas AG, who happens to be under a pretty serious federal bribery investigation at the moment, and street cred for other AGs with their local Rep primary voters.

          The bigger point is that voter fraud is a Big Lie that has been embraced by Trumpist dead-enders and the politicians who pander to them for a combination of emotional and strategic reasons.

          Best to acknowledge that your guy lost, accept there are pretty banal reasons for the loss (botched pandemic response, shit economy, Trump’s repulsion of suburbanites and other normies), and generally seek a healthy relationship with facts and reality.

            If Trump stops the Dems and in effect cancels the election, and it is shown how corrupt the election was, are you still going to say everything was above board.

            I have had discussions on this board for years about how wide spread voter fraud and election fraud really is.
            It has always been leftist shill types that argue with me and I guess because the fraud is mostly in favor of the unamerican Democrat party. Who will lie cheat and steal anything to win and when they don’t win we get to hear them come unhinged for four years and with some light of truth another four years!
            Pull your head out of your ass if the voter fraud can go one way it most certainly can be swung the other and I would be just as pissed about it.

            benr and John,

            The only significant federal election fraud (a crime) involving actual indictments that I know of in recent years was committed a Republican operative in North Carolina working for Republican Congressman Mark Harris. As in, a case where there was a scheme involving a significant number of votes – in that case so significant that the election was re-run.

            In the case of Trump, he declared in 2016 that there were millions of illegal votes for Clinton. If that were true – which it obviously wasn’t – it would be an existential problem for our entire system. So where were the indictments? What did Trump and his DOJ and the numerous state Rep AGs do about it over the next four years? Why didn’t the McConnel/Ryan Congress do something about it legislatively? And why couldn’t Hillary squeeze out a few more supposed illegal votes in PA to win the electoral college? If there were truth to the charge, there would have been a very different reality surrounding it.

            In 2020, he is pulling the same shit. But now their PR plan has to involve frivolous court filings because he lost.

            It’s one thing to support Trump ‘cause you like his policies or the way he owns the libs. It’s another thing to keep buying into his lies hook, line and sinker. Too many Trump supporters don’t understand the basic axiom that when you’re in a hole, the best thing you can do is stop digging.

            And I would add, if a Democrat were trying to undermine the integrity of a national election to stay in power the way he is, you would be calling him a seditionist and a traitor.

            You don’t get it. Even were there zero chicanery in the actual vote tabulations, widespread ballot fiascoes, and machine ops and proprietary shenanigans (of course, there were), the election results are still null and void based solely on Constitutional illegalities pertaining to rules broken and unconstitutional laws set up in the last year (negates your point about “why not 2016?”), while avoiding/squashing/delaying justice by all legislatures in the swing States regarding those rules when challenged in various lawsuits.

            Writing off the reality-based community and trying to overthrow election results is a losing strategy and a dead end for the Republican Party longer term.

        Are you a Constitutional lawyer? Because many that fit that designation have concluded, with chapter and verse, that there are multiple illegalities, by way of unconstitutional abrogation, that are cut-and-dried contraventions from every disputed swing State.

Of course, they can be thrown out. Previous, similarly stated cases already have, by highly motivated Dem and RINO functionaries in other jurisdictions.

    Dr. Ragazzi Weighs in on Covid-19 Vaccines
    MAY 07, 2020 COG FOR LIFE
    A COVID-19 Vaccine Developed on Aborted Babies’ Cells?
    by Maurizio Ragazzi, DPhil

    We are anxious to see a COVID-19 vaccine materialize in the shortest possible time. At least some of us, however, are even more anxious at the prospect that the only vaccine that may eventually become available to us (if not imposed on us) will be an abortion-related vaccine. The ethical problems arising from the research, production, marketing and use of vaccines are not new. For some anti-COVID-19 vaccines under development, Children of God for Life, based in Florida and ably directed by Debi Vinnedge (the leading pro-life NGO on the topic of vaccines), has already sounded the alarm: the vaccine currently under development by the pharmaceutical company Moderna (mRNA-1273) and that of Johnson & Johnson (which receives public funds for its anti-COVID-19 research) use cell lines from aborted babies. All this is in stark contrast to other vaccines and treatments under preparation, such as those of Sanofi Pasteur and AVM Biotechnology, which do not use abortive cell lines.

    But what exactly does the expression “cell lines from abortions” mean? This is what Angel Rodríguez Luño wrote in 2006: “widely used vaccines against diseases such as rubella, hepatitis A, and varicella [chickenpox] were developed with virus strains obtained from human fetuses that had been voluntarily aborted… or were derived by attenuating the virus through successive passes in human diploid fibroblast cultures… which also came from voluntarily aborted fetuses”. The list of these “cultures”, identifying sex and gestational age of the aborted babies whose cells were utilized, is available on the Children of God for Life website, together with a list, which is being regularly updated, of the vaccines related to abortion and their ethical alternatives, when they exist.

    It could be argued, however, that it would be fairly gratuitous to raise moral problems against these vaccines nowadays, decades after the abortions that were at the origin of their development. Furthermore, what is the problem, if these vaccines have done and continue doing much good to their many beneficiaries? Well, neither objection stands, starting from the contention that the abortions relating to these vaccines are merely a thing of the past. In fact, at the end of quite a detailed analysis, Debi Vinnedge remarked that (a) “cultures” are not immortal, and therefore new biological material is required from new abortions to create new vaccines, (b) the use of these vaccines ends up being an incentive to research based on the destruction of fetuses and embryos, and (c) the polio vaccine, just to give one example, became an instrument for getting rid of restrictions imposed on immoral research. And, even conceding the premises of the two above mentioned objections, the first one (the one appealing to the time lapsed since the initial abortions) would be tantamount to suggesting that, after several passages from hand to hand, counterfeit money should be used as if it were good. The second objection (the one justifying these vaccines with the benefits they produce) is a variant of the discredited refrain that a good end justifies a bad means.

    Therefore, however one looks at the question, a significant problem remains. In philosophy and moral theology, this problem is known as that of cooperation in evil. Applied to the issue of vaccines, the problem was summarized in a declaration adopted by the Pontifical Academy for Life in 2005, in response to a question submitted by Debi Vinnedge. In that document, the problem of cooperation was rightly addressed from the perspective of three different categories of people (who may have different moral responsibilities): “a) those who prepare the vaccines using cell lines coming from voluntary abortions; b) those who participate in the mass marketing of such vaccines; c) those who need to use them for health reasons”. The morality of formal cooperation (namely sharing the evil intention to proceed with an abortion) was obviously excluded with respect to all three categories of people. As to material cooperation, the preparation, distribution and marketing of these vaccines were judged to be morally illicit as a matter of principle, because they could contribute to encouraging the performance of more abortions. Likewise illicit was the passive material cooperation carried out by the producers of these vaccines, “if they do not renounce and reject publicly the original immoral act (the voluntary abortion), and if they do not dedicate themselves together to research and promote alternative ways, exempt from moral evil”. (In this respect, Debi Vinnedge has warned that, for some abortion-related vaccines, alternative forms had been produced and marketed in the past, before being discontinued for reasons that had nothing to do with the effectiveness or safety of the ethical vaccines.)

    Regarding material cooperation of vaccine users, the document found that cooperation is more intense on the part of “the authorities and national health systems” that accept their use. In the case of diseases against which there are no ethically acceptable vaccines, “it is right to abstain from using these vaccines if it can be done without causing children, and indirectly the population as a whole, to undergo significant risks to their health”, but these can be used on a temporary basis if there are considerable dangers to health. At the same time, the document called on “the faithful and citizens of upright conscience (fathers of families, doctors, etc.) to oppose, even by making an objection of conscience, the ever more widespread attacks against life and the ‘culture of death’ which underlies them”. Hence the “grave responsibility” to resort to alternative vaccines where they exist and, for vaccines without ethical alternatives, the duty to exert pressure so that ethical vaccines be prepared.

    In this same spirit, while calling Catholics and all men and women of good will to make themselves heard so that vaccines be produced ethically, Mons. Strickland, Bishop of Tyler near Dallas in Texas, could not have been more eloquent in his tweet in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis: “So sad… even with Covid-19 we are still debating the use of aborted fetal tissue for medical research… let me go on record… if a vaccine for this virus is only attainable if we use body parts of aborted children then I will refuse the vaccine… I will not kill children to live”. And his voice has not remained isolated.

    On April 17, 2020, four archbishops and bishops, in their capacity as chairmen of committees and a subcommittee of the US Bishops’ Conference, together with representatives (not all of them Catholic) of various organizations, signed a letter (which was copied to President Trump) emphasizing that it is “critically important that Americans have access to a vaccine that is produced ethically: no American should be forced to choose between being vaccinated against this potentially deadly virus and violating his or her conscience”.

    In other words: an anti-COVID-19 vaccine? Certainly, and hopefully soon. A vaccine at any price? No way. As in all things, moral ways are to be pursued, while immoral ways are to be rejected. Thank you for your courageous witness, Bishop Strickland, and thank you for your firm reminder, signatories of the April 17 letter!

    Yoho: A good presentation of the Catholic pov. But this pov is also against body modification, like tatoos for example. Or plastic surgery. This gene therapy “vaccine” is that on steroids, playing with our basic genetic code. Do we have the wisdom to do so? I doubt it. And then trying to force it on whole populations? Madness. I’m afraid they’re really being slow off the mark here. The gentleman I posted a few days ago got it however. Certainly a Catholic poster, but one not in any official position. Alas, that makes all the difference these days.

    • Yohannon December 10, 2020 at 12:52 am #

      Body modifications as in gratuitous ones. They are fine with surgery of course. And ethical organ transplants as well.

      Any acceptance of this new gene therapy could only come after long, long testing – if then. I don’t want to presume or put words in their mouths.

      • Kim December 10, 2020 at 1:30 am #

        I don’t like to be so personal online but I shall make this comment because I believe that I represent many people.

        Here is a quesion:

        Why the fuck would someone with either a diagnosed or suspected history of auto-immune disease – i.e., millions of people nowadays – allow him or herself to be shot up with a new vaccine that stimulates auto-immune activity?

        Such people – people like myself – already have overactive and damaged immune systems that produce all kinds of mysterious and varied symptoms.

        I myself have ankylosing spondylitis.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankylosing_spondylitis

        This is an inherited autoimmune disease that you really do not want to have.

        This disease is why I retired at quite a young age and do not live in a city. Ten years ago, I would wake up in the morning bent to the left like the letter C. It would take me two hours to straighten up. (You can find pix on line of people with this condition.) I had not had a full night’s sleep in 35 years. And the disease, I could see, was getting to a very critical, apparently accelerating point, including constant pain that makes one wonder if life is worth the effort.

        Now, after ten years of living somewhere where I know the source of every morsel of food that enters my mouth, and appropriate exercise and plenty of sun (astonishingly important), i have substantially halted the progression of the disease and even reversed much of it. My joints no longer ache. My back gives me much less trouble. I am not beset with paralyzing spasms or mysterious, whole-body pain. I can stand up straight. I can pick up things from the floor without having to go down onto my hands and knees. I can spring out of bed like a kid and not have to lower myself to roll in or out. I do not miss steps when I walk. I do not have brain fog. I do not have chronic stomach troubles. I sleep at night. I can walk without limping. I can even run and swim and play sports. And life is good again. I now show only a few residual signs of my condition.

        It is a miracle because I had been informed this could not be done.

        And now they want to force me to taking a fucking vaccine that stimulates the fucking autoimmune system!!!!!

        WTF!

        And I am by no means alone in this situation in the modern world.
        Auto-immune diseases are very, very common.

        An autoimmune disease is the result of a malfunction in the immune system where healthy cells are mistaken for foreign bodies, causing the immune system to attack healthy cells in the body.

        It is estimated that as many as 50 million Americans suffer from some form of autoimmune disease. And there are hundred of conditions and symptoms. Many of them are very odd or hard to diagnose. For example, the skin might chronically peel on the hands and feet. One might have breathing difficulties. And on and on. The list of signs and symptoms is very long.

        “Treatment for autoimmune diseases typically focuses and managing pain and symptoms of the condition.”

        Meaning, they have no fucking idea of how to fix it!

        As to what causes, AS? They say that, while it is inherited, so one must be predisposed, not every one who is predisposed actually developes it. Its onset is probably the result of some insult to the immune system!

        Go fucking figure!

        Can you imagine how infuriated I am by this?

        Signs and Symptoms of Autoimmune Disease
        Autoimmune diseases can develop from a variety of factors with no known definitive causes for the onset of the disease. Some suspected sources are:

        Bacterial or viral infection
        Effects from certain drugs
        Chemical toxins
        Environmental pollutants

        When the immune system determines that healthy cells are foreign, it begins to produce antibodies to fight off the healthy cells it believes to be the source of an illness or infection. When an autoimmune disease is suspected, a rheumatologist will administer tests to determine what antibodies are being produced. There are more than 80 potential autoimmune diseases and some of the most common areas affect can be:

        Joints and muscles
        Red blood cells
        Blood vessels
        Connective tissue

        Most Common Autoimmune Diseases

        1. Rheumatoid Arthritis – Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammation of the lining of the joints, leading to pain and swelling typically in the hands and feet. It can affect anyone, but is most prevalent in women over 40. Rheumatoid arthritis can sometimes affect other organs as well, such as skin, eyes, lungs and blood vessels. As with all autoimmune disorders, treatment focuses on managing pain and minimizing bone erosion and joint damage.

        2. Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis – Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is the most common form of arthritis in children under 16. Symptoms usually include pain and swelling in the joints, and can vary from moderate to severe. In some cases, symptoms will subside over time while others can persist well into adulthood.

        3. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (Lupus) – Lupus can be difficult to diagnose because it shares symptoms with many other disorders. The inflammation resulting from lupus can affect many different areas of the body, from the lungs, heart, joints, skin, kidneys, and brain. Like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus is more prevalent in women and can sometimes be identified by a butterfly-shaped rash on the face, along with photosensitivity, fatigue and fever, joint pain, and other skin lesions that worsen under sun exposure.

        4. Psoriatic Arthritis – People with the skin condition psoriasis sometimes develop arthritis as well, but in certain cases the joint inflammation can occur before the skin rash. The main symptoms of psoriasis are joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. The condition can affect any part of the body, such as the fingertips and spine, and range from mild to severe.

        5. Inflammatory Bowel Arthritis (Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis) – With inflammatory bowel arthritis (or IBA), inflammation affects the intestines. With ulcerative colitis, the colon or large intestine are affected. Crohn’s Disease can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, but usually occurs in either the small intestine or colon or both.

          Kim,

          A sobering story, but I’m glad you got relief. I know how brave is the fight to gain any traction with autoimmune diseases. I have a few. After exhausting research and relentless effort, I’ve made some progress.

          There’s no fucking way any sadistic or paternalistic doc is coming within a barge pole’s length of my body with one of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. There hasn’t been any success with any of the coronovirus precursors to date. And, aside from the terrifying issues that Yohannon and others have brought up, the fact is that it was rushed to market.

          “But it was tested and it passed!” goes the argument. Yeah, and 98% of all pharmaceutical drugs are also passed by the FDA after a quick run-through. Just as Standard & Poor’s gave Bear Stearns a credit rating of AA as late as Nov 15, 2007, so too is the rubber-stamping drug regulatory body in bed with Big Pharma.

          I propose that Andrew Cuomo, Gretchen Whitmer, Gavin Newsom, Tony Fauci, and (here in Canada) Theresa Tam all be first in line for the drug’s first jabs. (Other enthusiastic Covid pro-vaxers can follow.) Then put them in a sequestered room in a laboratory where real doctors can run a battery of tests on them for the next thirty years.

          I’d suggest adding Nancy Pelosi to the list, but what virus is stupid enough to be that intimate with her?

            You really are a quite dishonest person, possibly led by your ideological imperatives, but, given you claim to be religious to boot, I find it quite shocking.

            I told you multiple times I hadn’t decided even for me, and from that you extract calumnies about my views on giving it to other people. And not just giving it to them, but forcing them to take it, something that is anathema to me, as I also explicitly stated.

            I find your chronic dishonesty really quite appalling.

            All I have told you is the balance of opinion among a widespread group of everyday UK doctors (generalists and a variety of specialists) on the balance of risk between the disease and the vaccine. That’s a third-party opinion, in case you are having difficulty understanding. I have no reason to imagine that any of them favour compulsory vaccination.

            My husband has psoriasis, and thinks he may also have spondylitis. And an allergy. But he also has three or four reasons to be concerned about the actual virus. That means he has a risk assessment to do for himself. As he isn’t going to be involved in vaccinating other people, he doesn’t have to do it for anyone else – they can do their own.

            Maybe you could make a New Year’s Resolution to be less dishonest?

          • GreenAlba December 10, 2020 at 10:24 am #

            Many people like to repeat that the pharmaceutical companies have insisted on taking no legal responsibility for any negative effects of their vaccines. That does sound a bit unedifying, but (a) they have been heavily leaned on to produce effective vaccines in a much shorter time than usual, and (b) it’s exactly what the nuclear industry does.

            I don’t know how it works in the US, but here there are NO private insurers willing to take on the risks of the nuclear industry (which, theoretically, could be infinite), so all damages fall on Joe Public. But most people are happy for the nuclear industry to keep functioning.

            Back to vaccines. It seems that here, accountability will fall on the already crushed shoulders of GPs. So, mostly it will be nurses who administer vaccinations, but nobody makes nurses accountable for anything you can dump on a doctor, so there has to be a supervising doctor at any location (as I understand it) where nurses are delivering the injections.

            The doctor (often a GP) won’t know everyone, will only have the information s/he is given about patients (by the patient?), but will be accountable, even though s/he is (a) not an immunologist, (b) isn’t giving the actual injection, and (c) didn’t design the vaccine. But someone has to be found to take the blame, in a blame culture.

            And for that privilege GPs have been offered about £12.90 per vaccination, which wouldn’t even cover their costs, given all the palaver that has to be gone through before and after each one. AND, if people don’t come back for the second dose, the GP won’t be paid for the first one! That’s the plan.

            As far as my husband is concerned, he’s not volunteering (he’s not a practice-based GP) and says they can eff off. He’s already had to make a stand and piss off his managers by refusing to sign off on medications prescribed by nurse practitioners where he hasn’t examined the patient (if he examined the patient there would be zero point in having the nurse practitioner there at all).

            There will always be someone to sue, never fear. Just not always the person with the deepest pockets.

          • Yohannon December 10, 2020 at 12:13 pm #

            You basically said your husband was going to take it. And if he takes it, you wouldn’t – and risk infecting him (your logic, not mine)? In any case, you said everyone should take it (look it up by looking up) and you are included in that, are you not?

            Now see here Money Penny: I see your virtues. I would trust you to teach children grammar. Or to go shopping for me and get what I had indicated; to get good deals within that framework, and to bring me back the correct change. On a higher level of intellect, I would trust you to do my books for me fairly and ably or to edit my authored books.

            On all this you are straight and sound. Your knavery is at a higher level, as indicated in this post. Or back a bit where you chose style over substance, taking refuge in Robert’s Rules of Order to avoid searching for the Truth.

          • GreenAlba December 10, 2020 at 1:28 pm #

            “You basically said your husband was going to take it.”

            I ‘basically said’ a number of days ago that he was going to take it. He was. He called for an appointment and couldn’t get through.

            Then, AFTER THAT, we got the news that two people had an anaphylactic reaction and people with allergies were told NOT to take this particular vaccine. Are you following the timeline here? It’s not that complicated. If it’s too complicated, then use questions instead of assertions and accusations and I’ll fill you in.

            I also told you, with complete honesty, that about six weeks previously he WASN’T going to take it. And it seemed to him that a lot of doctors weren’t going to take it either, from what he was reading and from discussions with colleagues. People who are used to thinking things through don’t just make up their mind about something and refuse to change it. They follow evidence and discussions among people who know a bit about what they’re talking about. None of them know EVERYTHING about this. Like I said, it’s a personal risk assessment.

            At this exact moment, I have no idea whether he’s still going to pursue it or wait for another vaccine without the (possibly very small) allergy risk to people who already have a serious allergy problem. I haven’t asked him again since last night, when he didn’t say one way or the other, but just make the joke about the flippin’ prawns. I’m not the KGB.

            Find something dishonest in there and I’m happy to discuss it. My late wee brother once told me I was too honest. I see what he means – people who are themselves dishonest will use your honesty against you.

            “And if he takes it, you wouldn’t – and risk infecting him (your logic, not mine)? In any case, you said everyone should take it (look it up by looking up) and you are included in that, are you not?”

            Point me to the bit where I said everyone should take it, and we can take it from there.

            I didn’t say ‘I wouldn’t’, I said I was sitting on the fence and that was fine, since I won’t be offered it for months, possibly not till next summer or later, since I’m not a health worker and I’m not over 70. How many times.

            Are you being deliberately obtuse? No need to answer that, it’s kinda obvious.

            And how the actual **** would I ‘risk infecting him’ if he were vaccinated himself? We risk infecting each other the whole time at the moment, especially since he’s seeing patients who may unknowingly have the lurgi.

            You really need to straighten out your thought processes. Do that BEFORE you make accusations, ideally.

        Think of the millions of people out there who have “back pain” but examination can show no causes. Are they just malingerers? What proportion of it is autoimmune disease?

        And so many of them – understandably – get onto powerful pain killers.

        Failing to diagnose and cure – and endless courses of “treatment” without cures – are the great cash cows of modern medicine and Big Pharma.

      I don’t think this proves that Dominion software is to blame. All that the machines do is automate the process of tabulation. It would be assumed by the software designers that human checks, safeguards, & control procedures are in place.

      But we already know from all the sworn statements by poll watchers that that wasn’t the case. And we even saw the irregularities play out in real time as the votes were being counted.

      The real problem is that the proper supervisory controls were not observed in the key precincts & counties where the irregularities occurred. This was the result of the Democrat party strong-arm tactics at the polling places, basically widespread hooliganism.

      This was part B of the plan, where they sat down at the table to eat. Part A was put in place months ago with the introduction of mail-in ballots, & other innovations such as the legalization of ballot-harvesting in some states. That’s where they set the table.

          Leaving loopholes in where it can be hacked gives them plausible deniability about the thing in itself. And of course it’s another way to change votes. Their strategy was obviously to use as many tactics as possible so as to create a tangle that could not be untangled.

            overwhelm the country with illegals, lawlessness, debauchery etc. then coddle precisely those defective groups – along with the elections process – and poof! they’re permanently in power

        • Tate December 10, 2020 at 1:43 pm #

          It seems to me that as a commercial vendor, they would have concerns about how inaccessible the software is to “adjudication,” which is the bone of contention in the video. IOW, they don’t want to design in features that make it so hard to adjudicate disputes — where it’s legitimately needed — that no none would buy their system.

          Separate issues would be an algorithm that “weights” votes for preferred candidates, or that allows remote internet access directly to the machines. If these alleged features exist, then obviously that yields a tainted result.

          To me, the real issue is that the Dems are the party of street thugs & the urban/ suburban Repubs are the party of the bourgeoisie with all their attendant values. Who’s going to win out at the polling station in that contest? They’re more concerned about “optics” & don’t want to be seen in physical battles at the polling places with the black hooligans that control those venues in the urban centers.

    https://welovetrump.com/2020/12/09/michigan-rep-cynthia-johnson-removed-from-committee-positions-after-threatening-trump-supporters/

    Well, now it turns out that she also has at least overt ties with (surprise!) the Chinese Communist Party!

    In her role as a China bootlicker, in October 2019 Johnson introduced a bill, HR 188, entitled:

    A resolution to commemorate the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the United States and People’s Republic of China and to declare October 1, 2019, as China Day and October 1-7, 2019, as Chinese Heritage Week in the state of Michigan.

      Of course, as usual, everything they say is a lie.

    So I’m reading that Atlanta is in a state of anarchy, with a BLM friendly mayor and a PD that is unofficially ‘Standing Down’ in the face of anarchy and violence. One would think this situation in Georgia’s largest city would favor Republicans in next months Senatorial elections, but not so fast. In Portland, with even more violence and chaos, Mayor Ted Wheeler was re elected. A ‘CHOP’ like stronghold was set up last week; police moved in to dismantle it, but were driven out by a mob. It wasn’t a good look for the cops, running away like that, retreating with their tales between their legs, as they say. One of the arguments for Gun Control is that we don’t need to protect ourselves because we have police to protect us; this has proven not to be the case, as we are seeing all over the country.

    In a town a little east of here, pop. about 25,000, tues. nite, 100+ cars vandalized, stolen and ransacked, and there are dark rumors they were circulating thru rural areas here the same night. Clearly we are in a new era. What’s different now seems to be the govt is on the side of disorder and anarchy. What to do?

      Given how devout many Muslims tend to be in comparison with other religious groups this is noteworthy. The worldly secular philosophies and messages are cycling through everything now it would seem. The prophecies do say that the entire world will follow after the beast and his system. I was just hoping that maybe there could be a respite since God does say that he can hold off the day of judgement depending on the hearts of the people.

          2 Chronicles 7:13-15 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.

            Well that’s always true. Not part of Prophecy per se. The End is coming, but some say it can be delayed. Would it be better to just get it over with? That seems to go against our better nature. We have to do the best we can in our time and let the chips fall where they may.

            I guess if we’re defeated, we’ll know soon enough. And if things then keep getting worse, it may be time to flee into the wilderness as per prophecy.

    The idea of Eternal Return or Eternal Recurrence has existed in various forms since Antiquity. Put simply, it’s the theory that Existence recurs in an infinite cycle as Energy and Matter transform over Time.

    “This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more; and there will be nothing new in it, but every pain and every joy and every thought and sigh and everything unutterably small or great in your life will have to return to you, all in the same succession and sequence—even this spider and this moonlight between the trees, and even this moment and I myself. The eternal hourglass of existence is turned upside down again and again, and you with it, speck of dust!”

    I wish I would die young like many of my friends-from “lead poisoning” or in car accident.

    Now it is too late.I will watch the Madness of 2020 countless times,over and over and over again…

    It’s interesting that, with regards to Christian support for Trump, I’ve mostly seen pieces expressing befuddlement at how so many people of faith could be taken in by a guy who is clearly not a faithful Christian himself, and whose policies, corruption, and lies violate Christian teachings. Funny, that sounds like so many Christian faith leaders. Trump doesn’t just appeal to televangelists: he IS a televangelist. His rallies are revivals. His depraved hypocrisy just places him more squarely within a well-established tradition. (And I don’t mean to just pick on the Evangelicals – his swagger is all Swaggart, but give him a little lace and you could almost replace his funny orange hat with a red one.)
    And the most televangelist thing of all is the cash grab he’s pulling off right now by appealing to supporters to fund his pie-in-the-sky bid to overturn the election. America not so great for you yet? You must not have enough faith! But you can change that! Send me your money, and when good things happen for me, they’re sure to happen to you, too… assuming you stay faithful.

      Who funds Biden?

      At least the deplorables — you know, the ones who actually have a stake in how the country’s run — donate for their candidate, whatever ad hominems you can think to throw at him.

      You are angry about the lawsuits huh. So aside from him though you know that this is all about so much more than Trump right? In a lot of ways it isn’t about Trump at all. It’s about whether the Constitution means anything at all or if we truly live in a lawless society where anything goes as long as it is backed up with enough force and money.

      • kbird December 10, 2020 at 5:20 pm #

        Softstarlight,
        huh, am I angry about the lawsuit? I don’t think that is the correct word. You and I see two different worlds…and that is what is very scary. No matter what happens, in the courts, in the Supreme court, you will believe what Trump says, that there was election fraud. I do not believe there was, and nothing so far in the courts has shown there was wide spread voter fraud. Everything is so divided right now and nobody knows what to believe anymore, and that is scary.

            Biden is owned by the Chinese and it is being proven.
            Biden could not get a security clearance that most government workers are required to get.

            It is very telling that you believe the likes of the MSM that lied non-stop about Russia collusion and it speaks volumes as to your gullibility.

            Trump is not perfect but he is at least mouthing that he loves this country and wants it to succeed. The same thing can not be said about ANY Democrat and sadly a lot of rinos.

I simply gave my opinion on something that I found interesting. I’m not looking for posting capitol either, just sharing my opinion like everyone else on here. Isn’t that freedom of speech? Come on, there is no need to be so hateful and nasty to people who have different opinions. You never know, you could be sitting out in the lineup and someone you don’t know decides to give you a set wave when it’s their wave. They might even have voted for Biden. Would you think differently of them then? Would you judge them? Would you then just call them a kook? We should all be a little kinder on here, including myself too. I know everyone feels safe behind the computer and can get nasty but were still all human beings, let’s just try to be a little bit nicer even if were on opposite sides. I’m guessing I’m going to get some nasty comments from this now too…

    Who needs Trump to tell them the election was rigged? Not me. There have been plenty of other sources besides the legacy media + social media, which has been consistently biased & that’s electioneering fraud in itself. One-third of Biden voters say they didn’t know about the Biden laptop scandal before now & say they wouldn’t have voted for him if they had known. Now the media is beginning to reticently report some of it now that they think Biden has it clinched.

    What’s concerning is that if & when Trump prevails, the media has evaded their responsibility to accurately report all developments. If this happens, it’s going to shock a lot of people who haven’t been prepared for it. Again, look to our incompetent & dishonest rulers for the cause of our unrest. When they make peaceful revolution impossible, violent revolution becomes inevitable.

  163. beantownbill. December 10, 2020 at 6:14 pm #

    I’m from a working class family and was lucky enough to get a good education. Even so, I have no idea what the truth of the election is. In our hi-tech world, anything can be made to appear true. I have no horse in the game whether or not the dems or repubs control the presidency.

    If I were a gambling man (Ha!) I’d say Biden definitely has the edge. Trump has been declared the loser by the media and other semi-official sources, so he’s at a disadvantage. That doesn’t mean Trump will not prevail.

    I’ve been to court many times, unfortunately, and sometimes I’ve acted as my own attorney (I know I have a fool for a lawyer). I’ve won my cases almost every time, for various reasons. I’m not trying to toot my own horn, but I’ve learned a thing or two about how successful cases work.

    One thing I’ve learned is that many judges don’t like affidavits. They like direct testimony. Those of you who hope Trump wins because he has a pile of affidavits may be very disappointed. Not going to say this will happen, but I’d be prepared for it. Truthfully, I don’t know how the Supreme Court operates, so it may be different at the highest judicial level.

    • Tate December 10, 2020 at 6:22 pm #

      I don’t think the Supreme court tries facts, they try law. If they accept a case, they’ve already assumed the facts are accurate.

      • Tate December 10, 2020 at 6:32 pm #

        That’s why the cases being pursued by Giuliani, Powell, et al may never make it to SCOTUS, but the states’ attorneys-general case now being combined very well may. The latter is a question of law, that of denial of equal protection under the 14th, whereas the former cases are fact-based. Personally, I think the Giuliani, Powell & others cases have been more of a political gambit to beat the drums.

        • beantownbill. December 10, 2020 at 6:52 pm #

          Tate, for what purpose? To mobilize the repubs so they continue to have influence, or to foment unrest?

            I can’t answer. I don’t know the procedures and parameters. Just speculating like you. But ultimately, they can’t throw out the case against the Dems due to the hard evidence of unconstitutionality involved, in which case it would go to the State legislatures who have ultimate authority on federal elections.

        • Tate December 10, 2020 at 7:18 pm #

          Of course, that’s a precondition, that it has merit –that’s true of any court, but for SCOTUS to hear a case, the questions at fact have already been decided. At least, that’s the way I’ve always been led to believe.

      • Yohannon December 10, 2020 at 9:36 pm #

        Good distinction. If we’re not careful, rightly or wrongly, none of this will “fit” what they do and they won’t hear it – which is crazy, but there you go.

        Bill: The election was certainly stolen. Proving it to corrupt state Judiciary is the problem. And meeting the select criteria of the Supremes, a challenge. The latter seems to have been met. The question is now, How corrupt are they? Or, how many of them are corrupt.

        Proving the election was stolen to a statistician? Effortless. To someone who knows about elections and isn’t biased? Not much harder.

        You, Brh, and Ely have chosen to take an agnostic stance because of your own idiosyncrasies. It’s like sports betting: You don’t want to make a bad bet or vote for the losing side.

        • beantownbill. December 10, 2020 at 11:36 pm #

          What you say is true. IMO, the election is bogus, but who really knows? And I don’t trust the SC. But that’s just my feeling.

          I would like to know how the statisticians came up with a quadrillion to one odds. What were the assumptions in the equations – every formula is based on assumptions. I just find it difficult to believe in an accuracy of one in a quadrillion in this case without knowing how the math came out that way.

    • Soul Forensics December 10, 2020 at 6:24 pm #

      BTB,

      But surely the Federal Judiciary operates on a different level than city or district courts, no?

      I haven’t a clue on legal fine points, but my understanding is that preponderance of evidence is valued, and if my side has thousands of witness affadavits that more-or-less corroborate the others’ sworn testimony, this would have to have a lot of sway with the judges.

      And this isn’t to mention the current political make-up of the SCOTUS.

    • Kim December 10, 2020 at 7:36 pm #

      One thing I’ve learned is that many judges don’t like affidavits. They like direct testimony.

      Affidavits are considered direct testimony.

      • beantownbill. December 10, 2020 at 11:04 pm #

        It’s up to the individual judge how to treat affidavits. Yes, they are legal, but the mind of the judge and how and why they make a decision is unknown. A very powerful attorney once told me how some judges feel about affidavits, and my experience tells me he was right.

    The CFN comment section has become an angry arena. Most of the posts are from people fighting back and forth in a hostile manner. It has always been that way to a certain degree, but it has gotten much worse in the past year or so.

    As I said in my last post, I have no horse in this game. I’ve stated many times that it makes no difference who wins – we’ll all end up in the same place. But I notice that the anti-Trumpers have been mad instigators, and the pro-Trumpers have foolishly fired back.

    Posters, you’ve all been bad boys and girls, and it seems like a kindergarten poo-flinging contest to me. I think there’re others who feel the same way. Be polite to each other for Chrissakes! Be respectful of our president and president-elect, not because they deserve it, but because of the office they hold. Calling Trump vile and this and that, and calling Biden a senile, doddering old crook, shows me you disrespect whatever good America has in it.

    It’s becoming wearying. Personally, I don’t care who you like or don’t like, just take the edge of the discussions, please.

Even the republican just elected house speaker in NH who made fun of Covid is dead today at 71. I’m just tired of giving Trump a pass because he is POTUS . I accepted his win in 2016 . But he turned to Presidency into a nepotism lined playpen . He said he hired the best but then fired them all . Flynn . He got rid of him but then pardons him who then says Trump should declare Martial Law . Nope . I will not change my tune about Trump and the republicans who still deny he lost .

      Bill, I’m curious. Those court cases when you acted as your own attorney, were they civil cases? It seems that any kind of criminal case — which I doubt you were ever involved in — you’d want a good lawyer at your side. I’ve never been to criminal court but I have been in civil court a few times and I let my lawyer do the talking, keeping my mouth shut.

      • beantownbill. December 10, 2020 at 10:53 pm #

        Marlin, they were all civil cases. I’m glad because criminal cases are incredibly expensive. Anyway, a few were on personal issues, and the rest business cases. In one case, my business attorney couldn’t make his court appearance at the last minute. He was a very good lawyer. He said that I would be able to handle the proceedings and could defend myself. So I did. The plaintiff’s attorney was very glib and confident, but I knew I didn’t do anything wrong, so I felt all I had to do was tell the truth. I won, and as I was leaving, the attorney came over and growled, “ It isn’t over. We’re going to appeal.” Of course they never did.

    -Fat avuncular Judge Ito meekly admonishes “Can’t we all just get along ??

    -Stupid bitch Marcia Clark prances around the court room in miniskirt

    -Johnny Cochran chants ” IF IT DOES NOT FIT-WE MUST ACQUIT ! ”

    -80% black jury sings along with Johnny Cochran, doing jumping jacks and clapping hands-as they usually do in their cinder block churches

    -Topless photos of Marcia Clark suddenly become relevant to the case

    -Detective Mark Fuhrmann reveals his evil ray-ciss nature and is disqualified from testifying
    …..

    This horror cum farce will never end…

    I actually stood at Charles Bronson’s grave one autumn afternoon, outside Windsor, Vt. Just stumbled upon it, was actually looking for artist Maxwell Parrish.

    Why were you looking for the grave of Maxwell Parrish? What would you do when you found it? Well intentioned curiosity on my part.

    • John1945 December 10, 2020 at 9:36 pm #

      There is no mystery.

      As a young kid you look at the children’s books illustrated by MAXFIELD Parrish.Then you look at Saturday Evening Post covers illustrated by Norman Rockwell,all those kids wearing shoes and clothes 3 sizes bigger,hand-me-downs from older brother.

      Then you discover Dad’s stash of Playboy mags and look at Marylin Monroe wearing nothing but fragrance.

      And it is the end of your formal education.Next you go to basic training and look at the REAL teacher-your DI.

      • BackRowHeckler December 11, 2020 at 4:51 am #

        Yes Maxfield Parrish.

        I was interested in the work of Howard Pyle, an artist from the period just before Parrish and Rockwell. Then when I exhausted Pyle, I looked into Parrish, read his bio, drove up to the Parrish museum in Windsor, Vt. Parrish was part of that Cornish art colony that included Augustus St. Gaudens and the American novelist Winston Churchill (look him up)

        Why search out the gravesite? Make the trip complete and pay my respects. That’s about it.

      They don’t like the Hippocratic Oath because it forbids abortion. But they want to retain the prestige of the Tradition. Solution? Just drop the part they don’t like. Mangle it. Spit on him. Problem solved!

      If they had an ounce of integrity, they’d make up their own Oath and leave his name out of it. Or drop all oaths and tacitly admit they’re just businessmen as you aver.

        His name IS left out out of it, here anyway.

        The GMC publishes advice to doctors on the standards expected of them in the form of the document “Good Medical Practice”. It discusses the duties of a doctor registered with the GMC. This covers many of the principles of the original Hippocratic Oath.

        “Patients must be able to trust doctors with their lives and health. To justify that trust you must show respect for human life and you must fulfil certain duties which the GMC categorises into four domains:

        Domain 1. Knowledge, skills and performance

        Make the care of your patients your first concern.
        Provide a good standard of practice and care:
        Develop and maintain your professional performance.
        Apply knowledge and experience to practice.
        Recognise and work within the limits of your competence.
        Record your work clearly, accurately and legibly.

        Domain 2. Safety and quality

        Contribute to and comply with systems to protect patients.
        Respond to risks to safety.
        Protect patients and colleagues from any risk posed by your health.

        Domain 3. Communication, partnership and teamwork

        Communicate effectively.
        Work collaboratively with colleagues to maintain or improve patient care.
        Teaching, training, supporting and assessing.
        Continuity and co-ordination of care.
        Establish and maintain partnerships with patients:
        Listen to and respond to their concerns and preferences.
        Give patients the information they want or need in a way they can understand.
        Respect patients’ right to reach decisions with you about their treatment and care.
        Support patients in caring for themselves to improve and maintain their health.

        Domain 4. Maintaining trust

        Show respect for patients.
        Treat patients as individuals and respect their dignity.
        Treat patients politely and considerately.
        Respect patients’ right to confidentiality.
        Treat patients and colleagues fairly and without discrimination.
        Act with honesty and integrity.
        Never abuse your patients’ trust in you or the public’s trust in the profession.

        You are personally accountable for your professional practice and must always be prepared to justify your decisions and actions.”

    Almost ten percent of Democrats in the swing states say they wouldn’t have voted for Biden if they had known about his corrupt connect with China via his son, Hunter. Big Tech effectively blocked the story as did the legacy media – except for the NY Post, one of the oldest papers still in existence. Whatever its history, it is now a more significant paper in terms of real journalism than the NY Times.

      What is a demyelinating disease?

      A demyelinating disease is any disease of the nervous system in which the myelin sheath of neurons is damaged.[1] This damage impairs the conduction of signals in the affected nerves. In turn, the reduction in conduction ability causes deficiency in sensation, movement, cognition, or other functions depending on which nerves are involved.

      Demyelinating diseases can be caused by genetics, infectious agents, autoimmune reactions, and other unknown factors. Proposed causes for demyelination include genetics and environmental factors such as being triggered by a viral infection or chemical exposure.
      Organophosphate poisoning by commercial insecticides such as sheep dip, weed killers, and flea treatment preparations for pets, can also result in nerve demyelination.[2] Chronic neuroleptic exposure may cause demyelination.[3] Vitamin B12 deficiency may also result in dysmyelination.[4][5]

      Demyelinating diseases are traditionally classified in two kinds: demyelinating myelinoclastic diseases and demyelinating leukodystrophic diseases. In the first group, a normal and healthy myelin is destroyed by a toxic, chemical, or autoimmune substance. In the second group, myelin is abnormal and degenerates.[6] The second group was denominated dysmyelinating diseases by Poser.[7]

      In the most well known example of demyelinating disease, multiple sclerosis, evidence has shown that the body’s own immune system is at least partially responsible. Acquired immune system cells called T-cells are known to be present at the site of lesions. Other immune-system cells called macrophages (and possibly mast cells) also contribute to the damage.[8]

    A little clarity for Alba.

    The best current application of mRNA vaccines seems to be found in personalized medicine cancer treatment applications, where “vaccines” are customized to teach the body’s immune system to attack and kill cancer cells.

    – A reasonable tolerance risk for mRNA vaccine side effects would be proportional to the mortality risk of the pathogen or disease condition the vaccine is treating. For example, if stage IV cancer kills 80% of patients, and a personalized mRNA cancer vaccine cures 50% of patients while killing 5% of patients, the lives-saved-to-patients-killed ratio is 10:1, which would arguably be a reasonable risk to assume. However, if an mRNA coronavirus vaccine is widely given to healthy individuals who are at very low risk of mortality to begin with, then if the mRNA vaccine kills 1 in 1,000 of those people (for example), the vaccine might cause far higher mortality figures than the pathogen itself.

    • GreenAlba December 11, 2020 at 7:47 am #

      I’m not the one requiring clarity. You seem to think that (2nd) paragraph conflicts with something I’ve said.

      My grandson – and other people’s children of the same age – won’t be getting vaccinated (it won’t be available to under-16s), because their risk is as near to zero as you can get without being zero (a couple of babies with no-pre-existing conditions have died here of Covid, plus a little lad of 13).

      I have a different risk assessment to make, and I will make it in due course. I may have at least six months to make it. And then there are all the people in between, who will make their own decisions.

      So far nobody has died of taking the vaccine, but lots of people have died of the disease. Clearly the cohorts are not comparable, but they may be eventually. So, you need to break that up into age demographics and cohorts of people with various pre-existing conditions – bearing in mind that you can have a pre-existing condition that is no real risk to you while it is under control. And bearing in mind that having a serious allergy to something is a pre-existing condition when it comes to some vaccines.

      If I were 20 or 30, I wouldn’t be getting it either, unless perhaps I had a parent or grandparent unable to take it themselves (e.g. because of an allergy in this particular case), or if I had a child with Type 1 diabetes, or leukemia, or any other serious condition that put them at risk from the actual disease. Or unless it had been tried and tested for a decade and the risk of taking it was provably negligible (to people without pre-existing conditions), in which case it might be reasonable to get it for the general good.

      • GreenAlba December 11, 2020 at 7:55 am #

        And I have repeatedly supplied a list of vaccines using AND NOT USING mRNA technology, with the intention of advising people so that they can pick and choose, if picking and choosing at some stage becomes a possibility, which it clearly isn’t yet. Same with the fetal cell lines. Information is power …

    Reading this in hind sight(Jan 21) just leads me to think how deluded JHK has become. In his attempts to stay current on the goings on of this “Dumbp administration”, he has become one of their psy-op victims. At once decrying their media as tin foil hat wearers, but buying into all of their hokum, hook, line and sinker.

    Either they are making this whole thing up, like most of the initiatives they proffered when “governing” and there is no evidence what so ever, that any of this is even remotely true. Mostly just another score to settle, by a man who doesn’t do much else, other than golf, badly. Or, by extending to vast realms of extrapolation, a case here and there of “voter fraud” is being blown so totally out of proportion as to delegitimize the new president, as he was. Now that trump has lost his platform and his megaphone, he is the only one rendered illegitimate.
