The unstoppable Force
“There’s a difference between not understanding, but also acknowledging that it exists. And anybody spends time driving around, and you can see the intensity. It’s astonishing.” Fetterman recalled seeing a large display of Trump merchandise when he was at an event in Indiana County, a deep-red area in the western part of the state. The Trump items came in all shapes and sizes, reflecting the deeply held support for the former president. Expand article logo Continue reading “It’s the kind...

Polls reflect a very tight race, including the key swing state of PA. However, a democrat Senator from the Keystone state tells us what he sees & feels:


“There’s a difference between not understanding, but also acknowledging that it exists. And anybody spends time driving around, and you can see the intensity. It’s astonishing.”

Fetterman recalled seeing a large display of Trump merchandise when he was at an event in Indiana County, a deep-red area in the western part of the state. The Trump items came in all shapes and sizes, reflecting the deeply held support for the former President.

“It’s the kind of thing that has taken on its own life. And it’s like something very special exists there. And that doesn’t mean that I admire it. It’s just — it’s real,” he added.

The other day former President Trump used a garbage truck as the bookend to a sputtering Harris campaign. Yesterday Harris faced hecklers at three consecutive events:



Those people that the left invited in have come home to roost. The democrat base is fracturing as the Trump campaign continues to gain momentum by the day. Trump is likely to take the Senate with him. The Senate math is daunting for Democrats. Their caucus now has 51 senators, meaning they can lose only one seat and retain control in a Harris presidency. West Virginia is all but lost because the betrayed moderate democrat Joe Manchin is retiring, and other Democrats tend to lose badly there. In Montana, Jon Tester, the Democratic incumbent, trailed by an incredible eight points in the most recent Times/Siena College poll. A few other Senate Democrats, like Sherrod Brown in Ohio and Tammy Baldwin in Wisconsin, are in tight races and are beginning to highlight the occasions when they agreed with former President Trump.

In 2020 democrats went all out to register every possible human being likely to vote democrat. They were completely successful. This time around Republicans are using the same playbook and Republican registrations are way up. Early voting is beginning to reflect it. Frank Luntz feels it:


I also have a gut feeling. The Harris campaign is running out of time.



In the news:


Palestinian officials claim that Isreal struck a hospital in northern Gaza, destroying recently delivered medical supplies.  The Israeli military, which claims Hamas operates within the hospital, said it was unaware of the strike and was reviewing reports.

Last month, Russia made its largest territorial gain in Ukraine in the past two years.

The Biden administration will invest hundreds of millions to place a semiconductor research facility in upstate New York.

The rapper Young Thug pleaded guilty to participating in criminal street gang activity, ending his role in Georgia’s longest ever trial. He only got time served plus 15 years' probation.

The Harris campaign has truncated Trump's promise to protect women from illegal migrants whether they like it or not , on the pretense that he is referring to something else.

CBS still refuses to release the full transcript of the heavily edited "60 Minutes" interview with Kamala Harris.

New Mexico Territory became the 47 th  state on January 6, 1912. It is the fifth largest geographically and one of the most rural states, with only 17 persons per square mile compared to the U.S. at 87. Long before statehood, New Mexico was a territory of many cultures. This diversity continues to this day. The current population of the state is approximately 49% Hispanic, 11% Native American, 3% Asian, 3% African American, and 36% white, not Hispanic.  Thirty-four percent speak a language other than English at home. Among the 34%, the languages spoken most often are Spanish and Diné.

Americans no longer trust the msm (leftwing media.)

Jeff Bezos wrote a great op-ed on it:

Lack of credibility isn’t unique to The Post. Our brethren newspapers have the same issue. And it’s a problem not only for media, but also for the nation. Many people are turning to off-the-cuff podcasts, inaccurate   social media posts and other unverified news sources, which can quickly spread misinformation and deepen divisions. The Washington Post and the New York Times win prizes, but increasingly we talk only to a certain elite. More and more, we talk to ourselves.

Yes. What he is saying is that, even though they report the truth, the preponderance of people get their news from untrustworthy sources, and as a consequence don't believe the truth when it is presented to them. This is not the fault of the source, but the consumer of the (dis)information.

As is demonstrated here daily, one can scream the truth at the top of their keyboards, yet certain people, lacking in discernment and critical thinking skills, keep spouting the same old bullshit, no matter how thoroughly they have been proven wrong.

T he Colorado secretary of state left voting-machine passwords available on a spreadsheet posted to an official government website and only fixed the situation after the issue became public.

Colorado secretary of state Jena Griswold (D), an elected official who pushed for former president Donald Trump’s removal from the state’s ballot, found out about the password leak on October 24, but her office only remedied the situation after receiving public scrutiny, local outlet 9news Denver  reported  Wednesday night.

With the leaked passwords, a person could make changes to the voting machines if given in-person access to them. The spreadsheet lists the machines each county clerk uses and included the serial number, county, model, and vendor.

Last year,  Benson supported  the Colorado supreme court’s ruling barring Trump from the state’s ballot under the Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, which bans individuals who engaged in insurrection from running for office. The U.S. Supreme Court  ruled  9-0 in March to restore Trump to the Colorado ballot, determining that congressional authorization is needed to restrict a candidate’s ballot access for alleged Fourteenth Amendment violations.

Democrats control  a number of battleground state governorships and secretary of state office, and close elections don't have random outcomes like one would expect.  If a party controls those offices in a state, historically their candidate has a much better chance of winning close elections in that state.

The key phrase is close elections.

I place a lot of weight on what Fetterman said and on the fact that Trump is consistently underestimated.

The polls could definitely be off in Trump's favor by a point or two, but if it' really ends up with under a point separating  them, I'll bet on the party in charge of counting the votes.

Nate Silver has it Trump 55% to Harris 45%

Is this the part where you remind us that the polls said Hillary was going to win?

My township is a collection hub for early voting for the county.    They are seeing record numbers of early voters and absentee ballots.    We’ll see what it means but it is unprecedented to say the least.    At least in my county.

I saw reports a couple of weeks ago that Wayne County had the highest percentage of absentee ballots returned in the state of michigan, and it wasn't that close. Hard for me to believe that the citizens of Detroit were the most on their game about returning ballots.  Ballot harvesting can build up a big lead for Democrats.

Donald Trump: "250 MILLION AMERICANS ARE NOT GARBAGE—I CALL YOU THE HEART AND SOUL OF AMERICA!!!"

I wonder how he came up with that 250 million Americans are garbage?

There are only 231 million Americans eligible to vote by age,

only 168 million registered voter's

and only 154 million voted in 2020. 

Only 74 million voted for Trump

Funny that the media feel it is their job to sway an election and not just report the news.  And they wonder why they have lost the audience.  Lack of credibility never seems to cross their mind as a problem.

Bullshit.

Trump and others before him have been harping on the media, aka, "fake news" since the 1990s. It is not  the so-called fake news, it is the constant barrage of people with agendas pushing their brand of "truth" that is the problem. People have at their fingertips the ability to check out stories, yet seem content to just float along their X feed or Tick-tok scroll.

Now, we are at a point where Trump can freely let the most bogus lies and distortions fall from his lips and he gets no response, no pushback from the mainstream media. They just report it and move on. But the Fascist Press led by FOX spreads verifiable distortions and claim that it is just "entertainment", all the while knowing that a large number of people slavishly consume this drivel as if it were manna from heaven.  What a fucking crock of shit the right-wing media have become. The left-wing media is hardly better. Both left and right wing media are pushing a version of reality that is not true, but somehow, the populace either believes one side or the other and not the messy truth. 

News. I want news. Not what some person thinks that their demographic is going to consume. News, labeled as news. Period. 

My estimation of my fellow Americans' is dropping steadily as they gulp up this hateful, divisive rhetoric with the assumption that anyone person has all of the answers or "truths" to be told. 

Trump is fascist. There is no doubt about it. The media in spreading this information is doing their job. Trump is, in my estimation, the culmination of divisive rhetoric and the worst thing to have happened to our country in the past 150 years. 

Fuck Trump. Hard.

When I got to the garden party
They all knew my name
But no one recognized me
I didn't look the same

But it's all right now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can't please everyone
So you got to please yourself

A Trump victory means mainstream media is dead in its current form."

I certainly hope the current all opinion media dies. It's been the catalyst for the rise in populism. We need to get back to fact reporting. I have no stomach for the FoxNews, CNN and MSNBC talking head crap.
