A guy calls his doctor for some test results.
The doctor says, “Well Mr Jones, I have some good news and some bad news.
“The good news is you have 24 hours to live.”
“That’s the good news?! What’s the bad news?!”
“I was supposed to tell you this yesterday.”

There will be no Covid to save Democrats this time. Nor will there be an “October surprise” damaging enough to neutralize Donald Trump. The public knows him too well to be shocked by another Stormy Daniels or Russia collusion fantasy.
Surrounded by serious and talented people like J.D. Vance, his running mate, RFK Jr., who abandoned his own campaign to support Trump, former Democratic congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek Ramaswamy, Elon Musk and other business leaders, Donald Trump’s campaign will be like Patton’s Third Army racing across France in 1944.
That this shit is ‘the best the democrats have’ is a sign of the end of the United States – we are fiddling as it burns.

Here in MT we have our own PBS station–comes complete with the nightly news hour. Locally, we also have two “local” stations. Starting on Monday night the “nightly” local news has been removed for an “election special”. You know one that is “non-biased”. They spend 2/3 of the time bragging how wonderful the three term senate democrat has been and then the mention one or two “non judgmental things” about the younger challenger from the R side. That comes on at 5:30 and runs for most of the half hour with a few minutes for the local weather report. Then we get the PBS channel telling us pretty much the same thing–of course they are not biased–it’s just that well . . . you know . . . This has gone on for three nights now and is so radical it is disgusting! They really believe they are fooling someone!!!

I’m surprised MT isn’t deep red but I suppose Bozeman and Missoula control the state. (I used to live in Bozeman but not as a student)

OMG! They have been bringing in thousands of people from WA state and OR for jobs. Some of those jobs are just payouts from the Democratic party. For example: we have one woman who came in from out of state (AZ) she got “elected” to the state house and while serving there she had a job at the Poverello Center (non-profit homeless shelter for drug addicts, heavily funded by state and county grants). She was supposed to be the boss (has a “law” degree). She never showed up for work at the homeless center. I imagine she didn’t really want to get those nice suits dirty. Ended up getting elected to the state senate and now has a job as boss at the “Senior Center”. Another non-profit heavily funded by state grants. Not to worry–she never shows up there either! The democrats in Bozeman and Missoula are so corrupt it’s hard for them to remeber where they actually are living!

Suppose harris and trump get FAR more popular votes than there are voters?
I mean WAY more votes, and it’s more than obvious massive shenanigan’s have taken place.
IOW, crimes have been committed in creating more votes than voters.
Now what?
John A. FlemingOctober 24, 2024, 11:26 AM
Well, let’s see. T got 76M, the Fraudulent got 81M (?) “votes”, total of 157M. The Feds allowed the invasion of ~20M illegals. If 50% of them “vote”, 10/157 = 6.3%. However, one can estimate the number of true voter increase from the naturalization statistics and the birth rate from 20 years ago and the death rate now. There were 15M “excess” deaths from the kung flu.
Basically, anything over 152M is fraud.

There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth – then lawsuits. 2020 was fair and honest but if DJT wins, it will obviously be fraud and cheat.

Here’s how the big cities that can’t seem to count in a hurry do it, waiting until all the honest precincts have reported. It’s simple math. Say real turnout is 75%, and your guy is losing 60/40. The opponent got 45% of the elegible voters, your loser got 30%. So obviously you need to manufacture another 15% from your crooked precincts. And you only have 25% crooked precincts. Each precinct needs to manufacture another 60% of its ballot totals.
Obviously there’s more details. But somebody has a spreadsheet, they look at the vote totals from all the honest precincts, and make the calls to their crooked ones: Precinct 132, we need you to run through your ballots two more times. Precinct 144, run through your ballots three more times. Precinct 155, we need 237 “found” mail-in ballots that oh-so-magically just so happen to be 100% for the loser.
If they are just trying to manufacture enough votes to put their loser over the top, they don’t care that the final ballot count exceeds 100% of registered valid voters. They know the courts will back them up all the way.
How do we know this? From Jill Stein’s recount in Michigan in 2016. She got them to open up the Detroit precincts’ sealed ballot boxes. Inside were 50 ballots, but the precinct reported 600 votes. When they started seeing that, they suddenly lost all interest in doing a recount in the City of Detroit.
Those weasels have been doing this for a very long time. If the elections were run cleanly (an incredible occurrence), the Demos would lose bigly. They are in the game at all only by the cheat.

From an article over at Taki’s place:
“…thus any criticism of Israel is now seen, at least here in America, as anti-Semitic.”
===========
To which I say, “So?”.
The implication, I presume, is that some one some where gets to determine whether actions or speech by others is anti-Semitic or not.
This causes me to ponder that there are miniscule pissants running around with nothing better to do than whine about what someone else says or does. What a dismally poor excuse for a human being that would be.
Peter Navarro, a former Trump administration official, argues that John Kelly, Trump’s former Chief of Staff, was a “traitor within” who undermined the president’s agenda and ultimately failed in his role. Navarro accuses Kelly of obstructing Trump’s trade policies, disobeying the chain of command, and mistreating other members of the administration. He further claims that Kelly was incompetent in his management of the White House, particularly in his interactions with the media and his handling of staff members with past allegations of misconduct. Navarro’s article is a scathing critique of Kelly’s leadership, framed as a betrayal of trust and a deliberate effort to hinder Trump’s presidency.
Here’s the article:
Requiem for a Four-Star Bully and Coward John F. Kelly
Noone knows former Trump Chief of Staff John Kelly better than I. Here’s why this bitter bullying coward of a man should be tossed into the dust bin of history for yet again trashing Donald Trump now just days before the most important election in modern American history.
Here, it may be reasonable to assume a four-star general would make a good chief of staff. Yet, that is a deeply flawed assumption.
Four-star generals like Kelly typically reach the pinnacle of their profession because they are generally the sharpest tools in their military shed. Yet put Kelly in a room in the West Wing with uber-elite civilians drawn from academia, the corporate world, and Wall Street, and Kelly was always the dumbest guy in the West Wing.
On Kelly’s leadership, I would physically have to steel myself every time I got a call from his office as it would inevitably mean some type of abuse or threat. Some men lead by inspiration. Some try to lead by intimidation. Kelly was clearly the latter; and I can’t imagine serving under his command in a combat situation.
Yet, Kelly’s flawed leadership qualities weren’t what was most concerning. Rather, it was Kelly’s utter failure to obey his Commander in Chief — and therefore the chain of command.
Four-star Kelly (along with General Mad Dog Mattis at the Pentagon) knew, above all else, that without an ironclad respect for, and adherence to, the chain of command, the military would fall apart in a heartbeat. Yet once Kelly and Mattis got to the pinnacle of civilian power, they figured no one was above them, apparently not even their President.
Kelly would routinely subvert the President’s trade agenda. If my old boss told Kelly to get an executive order immediately ready to impose steel and aluminum tariffs or tariffs on China, Kelly would invariably slow walk the actions with an extended review process.
Kelly did the same kind of thing whenever the Boss tried to get trading partners like South Korea and Japan to stop screwing us in the trade arena. Both Kelly and Mattis didn’t want to do anything that might jeopardize the military alliances with these countries, oblivious to the reality that if they gutted our economy and manufacturing base, we wouldn’t be able to defend any other country, much less ourselves.
Why else was Kelly so opposed to the Trump trade agenda? Because Kelly had no training in economics, he easily fell prey to the facile Globalism of the globalist wing of the West Wing – principally National Economic Council Directors Gary Cohn and Larry Kudlow and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin – all of whom sought to block POTUS’s trade policy.
Because Kelly had no training in politics, he failed to understand the importance of trade policy in holding the high political ground of Blue Wall manufacturing states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan that Trump had won the election with in 2016.
Because Kelly did not know how to “let Trump be Trump” – as the great Corey Lewandowski once advised – there was no way in Hades Captain Queeq Kelly was going to let anyone with deviant trade policy thoughts anywhere near the Oval Office.
To that end, Kelly regularly eavesdropped on phone calls to POTUS. Kelly also poured over the overnight phone logs and if somebody like me called the boss, we would get threatened with firing.
Kelly was also totally incompetent with the media. Hiring Kelly was like a trucker driving a Formula One car. With his thick Boston accent, a smile always missing in action, and “I don’t suffer fools from the media gladly” tattoos stuck on both his forehead and sleeves, Kelly was simply incapable of messaging anything to the press.
One of Kelly’s most negligent acts was to hide the dirty big secret about Staff Secretary Rob Porter. Porter had two strikes of spousal abuse alleged against him, he couldn’t get a security clearance, yet he was handling documents of the highest national security and interacting with the president on a daily basis. That Kelly hid this alone was a fire able offense.
Kelly invariably hated those closest to Trump. As Chief of Staff, he single-handedly turned Trump allies Omarosa Gault and Anthony Scaramucci into bitter and viperous enemies with his mistreatment of each.
My lasting memory of Kelly was him sitting at my right shoulder on December 2, 2018, at the end of a long table in Buenos Aries, Argentina with President Trump in the center. Across from us were our counterparts from the Chinese Communist trade side.
Before the meeting began, a by-then broken Kelly, no doubt aware of his soon to be exit, apologized for treating me so poorly. In doing so, he further acknowledged he had failed to see what George Bush might have called the real evildoers in the West Wing.
Now, it both saddens and infuriates me to see Kelly play the court jester to the New York Times King of Spin. I thought the Biden-Harris regime’s tragic mishandling of the Afghanistan withdrawal where Kelly’s own son died in combat might have brought Kelly out of his hated-filled and vengeful derangement. But I was wrong. And so is the cowardly bully Kelly about Donald John Trump.

Just read the wiki’s on both. What a miserable pair of human beings. One 74 the other 75, but pretending they are 4 and 5.
The wiki readings quickly became complex with all the names and titles and such. Suffice to say, the business of big gov’t is waaay too complicated for any one person to deal with, and if trust is a bygone thing then the CEO has very little control.
A major dismantling and elimination must occur and just about everybody fired with all benefits rescinded.

My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
