#everybody loses except for Joe Biden

[lady-raziel]

It wouldn’t be a good thing and would certainly throw a catastrophic wrench in everything but the next 12-15 hours would be the absolute funniest time for Joe Biden to go on tv and say “actually I’m a Trump supporter now, after hearing about all this for so long I’ve come around to it and think I’m voting MAGA 😎”

Biden campaign to reassure Senate Democrats as George Clooney op-ed implores him to step aside: Live | The Independent

who the hell is This guy George Clooney what the hell is he talking about the same with the other Democrats who the **** are they out of nowhere. Biden has a what do they call those discussion with Trump and it's a debate and he did not fail he did not look stupid and he was not moderating and making dumb noises like Trump was. Acting like a child and was that was Trump was acting like a child and his responses were inappropriate and had no factual input and we're just two or three words like that of a 5 year old child on a schoolyard. America is sick of you **** **** get the **** out of the race trump you suck so bad you're so dumb you should play the tape back you look hilarious like a clown.

-- Who the **** is George Clooney you're nobody you're coming out of nowhere and saying stuff at the 11th hour the elections in like three or four months and you're a Democrat who's **** **** after what 4 years has gone by and the nominees it's too late for a Democratic nominee to be brought in it's far too late where the **** have you been we're going around and licking Trump's **** because you're a **** anybody who sides with this person is going to be labeled a zombie or a stupid person or a treasonous person. I hate to say it but you probably are a trumpster and don't even know it no you're probably a trumpster is a damn stupid thing to be on his side these days because people are just killing them. nancy Pelosi two This is the 11th hour all the kinks were worked out of the system with Biden and the debate was far too late it's like two debates because Trump never would do 1 he's the one who looked like a fool and everybody on Earth can tell except for you two twits and a few other Democrats who are stupid enough to open their mouths you look like **** trump. Yet your talk was **** you didn't say anything you didn't respond with any argument it's just like in court it looks like you're hanging yourself every day and enjoying it and people should know who try and support you this **** is hanging himself not like I want you to give a **** 'cause he's gonna go and I'm gonna take his territory because you're so lame. Holy ****

So they stuffed their head in radiation and they're not really mutants and they're frontal lobe goes first 'cause they don't use the shield. Problem and he's playing it out I understand my problem I was feeling angry and angry at Joe Biden and I probably should no I'm justified in it but our people are acting very rude and screwing around with everybody and nobody has a choice but to employ or deploy people like Biden and Mac daddy because we're not giving anybody a chance to live and we've seen what we're doing to this person that happens to our people it happens to BJA people they just don't want to sit there and put up with us yammering or they're screwing around with while we're screwing around with their money and messing up companies messing up food screwing up traffic screwing with this light controls messing the sidewalk up leaving it open for three weeks or three months. I'm so sick of this **** though it's such a pile of lazy **** nobody's and George Clooney you get off my back you're freak. Your stupid **** your crap you're spent it is so annoying. I don't wanna deal with any of you **** and get the **** out of office if you can't tell he's a Democrat.

LOTS OF NEWS

WF THOUGHTS (5/31/23).

We're back from our most recent "Special Assignment." We've been busy since May 5th.

Except for a few posts during our camping experience at Stone Mountain, I didn't have time to write. We leave for our next adventure in about a week. Between now and then, I should have time to chat with you.

In no particular order, here are some of the things that I would have addressed if I had time during the past few weeks:

1. According to a recent poll, the average American "stops feeling young" at the age of 42. That's why I don't like average Americans. They have bad attitudes.

2. In key battleground states, Liz Cheney is using her political action committee to run ads that attack Donald Trump. I love Liz Cheney. She's not an average American. When Biden is reelected, I hope he appoints Liz Cheney to an important position. The Republican Party should be proud of Liz.

3. With the onset of Covid, the federal government declared a federal "public health emergency" on January 31, 2020. The federal government officially ended the "emergency period" on May 11, 2023. Americans have such short memories. Most Americans forgot about Covid by the middle of 2022. More than 1,100,000 Americans died of Covid. Another 6,000,000 were hospitalized. What's wrong with us? How are we able to forget such a horror show so quickly? Our ability to mentally erase tragedies seems weird to me. What do you think?

4. According to a recent poll, job satisfaction in America has hit a new all- time high. It's at 62%. In 2010, it was 42%. Why the sudden boost? That's easy. Wages have significantly risen. More Americans are now fairly paid for their work. Most Americans like to complain about inflation. Not me. I don't mind paying more if it means that our fellow Americans are paid fairly. Aren't we all better off with a happier workforce?

5. Everybody has an opinion about Joe Biden. I recently read an article that summarized views about Biden. The writer concluded that Biden is like vanilla ice cream. Nobody gets excited about vanilla. On the other hand, nobody dislikes vanilla. That's why vanilla ice cream has stood the test of time. I thought it was interesting (and fun) to think about Biden in terms of ice cream.

6. As the debt crisis loomed, the stock market shrugged. When the market closed on May 18th, the S&P Index hit a new high for 2023. It was up 9.3% for the year. As I write this today, the S&P is up 9.4% for the year. This data confirms the lesson that I always preach. If you're investing for the long term, ignore the news. The market has a mind of its own. Over the long haul, the U.S. stock indexes always go up. If you jump out of the market because of bad news, you'll inevitably miss the next jump up. Don't try to outsmart long term market trends. You'll lose.

I'll stop there for today. I don't want to overwhelm you on the first day back.

By the way, if I had the time I would have done a full post about each of the above items. Yes, you just received six posts for the price of one. You're welcome!

[dhaaruni]

Let me explain this in very elementary terms:

We can’t pack the courts without 60 votes in the Senate thanks to the filibuster.

We can’t get rid of the filibuster without 50 votes, and there are currently about ~7 holdouts (not just Manchin and Sinema), and that’s not including the dozen or so senators who only support a filibuster carve out for voting rights.

Moreover, whenever sitting presidents make big changes, even if they’re well-intentioned like Hillarycare in 1993 or the ACA, the party in power gets demolished like Dems did in 1994 and 2010, or Republicans did in 2018 after Trump tried to repeal the ACA and passed a tax cut for the wealthy.

If Joe Biden comes out in favor of court packing, it won’t happen because of the first two bullets, but it will still cause the media to go into “Democrats are extreme” overdrive and propel Dems into losing the House and Senate and possibly the presidency, so we’d be left with a fully Republican judiciary and no legislative or executive power.

The only solution to this mess is to elect more Democrats so we can have a greater cushion to enact legislation. However, to do that, we need to win in red states which means we need to stop losing white, non-college voters by 70 since the Biden-Harris coalition is flat-out not sustainable, so once again, it’s a math problem that people don’t like the answer to.

Hope that clears things up for everybody who’s pitching a fit at Biden and Hillary Clinton and Ruth Bader Ginsburg and literally anybody except Republicans and third-party voters, who are actually culpable for this situation we’re all in.

[odinsblog]

“Who do you get the chance to vote for? I mean, who decides before you get to vote in a primary, or in a general election? So, you get whoever it is they cough up, and then you get to choose among those people, after the one percent have decided who you’re going to have the option to vote for. So that’s it.

And with the Electoral College, you can have the situation we had in 2016 where the person who gets fewer votes gets to be president. So that’s just not true. That’s a lot of platitudes to keep people happy, or to keep them from complaining too much. I wish the will of the voters is what counted in this country, but it is not.

People want all kinds of things that we’re told we can’t have. We can’t have Medicare for All. We can’t raise the minimum wage. Although I thought it was funny, Trump won Florida, but with a voter referendum they raised the minimum wage. We see some of these contradictory impulses, but most of the things that people need, we’re always told by Republicans and by Democrats that we cannot have them. So when it comes to what we want - this is something we can observe and there have been studies that show even when the person we vote for wins - we still don’t get what we want.

So the system is made to cater to the will of powerful interest groups mostly, and we get the left overs. We’re told that all they can do is nibble around the edges and we should be happy with that.

That’s especially pronounced with Trump being in office.

There’s this mania to just get rid of Trump, just get him out. And once they chose Biden, if you pointed out that he has a cognitive issue, people would get angry. If you raised Kamala Harris’ history as a prosecutor and a jailer, people got mad at you because it was all about getting Trump out. And that’s the saddest thing to me. Now they have buy in from people who ought to know better.

Things have been turned on their head in this country. The voters get blamed if a party loses. Especially the Democrats. They’re not accountable for anything. Four years after Hillary Clinton raised a billion dollars, but then couldn’t manage to get 10,000 more votes in Michigan, it’s Bernie Sanders’ fault, it’s the Green Party’s fault, it’s everybody’s fault except theirs. And the fact that that narrative has been accepted means that it’s still happening now in 2020. So what are we told: we can’t make any demands. So rather than say, “I’m going to withhold my support from you, Joe Biden, unless you can agree to support the following things, or some of these things, so that there can be a point of discussion and perhaps compromise...” but we are told that we can’t do that.

And it’s especially dangerous now, because I think there’s going to be a collective sigh of relief that Trump is gone and the joke now is we’re going to go back to brunch, saying: “Everything’s fine. Crazy orange faced man isn’t here, so there’s nothing for me to pay attention to.” Biden will be able to get away with a lot. He has the potential of being a very dangerous president. Foreign policy is a particular worry of mine. It’s something that doesn’t get attention and most people don’t think about. So I think he can get away with everything, up to and perhaps including, starting World War Three. And anything else.

What are we already being told? “Well, you can’t go too far left.”

Because the race is so close in Georgia, there are going to be runoffs for the Senate seats. Already, Nancy Pelosi says, “You know, you can’t start talking about Medicare For All or anything because we gotta save those seats.” So with the biggest voter turnout in American history, instead of building on that, and talking about how to expand it, they’re already contracting it. They already are saying that we have to minimize what we can possibly discuss. And that puts us all in very grave danger.”

—MARGARET KIMBERLY, answering the question: Is it true that it is the will of the voters and not anything else that chooses the president?

2016: Donald Trump/Mike Pence vs Hillary Clinton/Tim Kaine

2020: Joe Biden/Kamala Harris vs Donald Trump/Mike Pence

The same candidates tend to show up year after year. Not just President running for re-election, but Vice Presidents running for the top slot themselves, incumbents or candidates, successful or not; Richard Nixon (1952, 1956, 1960, 1968), Hubert Humphrey (1964, 1968), Walter Mondale (1976, 1980), Bob Dole (1976, 1996), Al Gore (1992, 1996, 2000)

I would expect John Edwards (D-2004) to try and make a comeback, though he was only a one term senator from North Carolina, so that’s looking increasingly unlikely. The state swung for Obama in 2008, but hasn’t voted blue since (except for governor, but he has no power because the Republicans control the state legislature)

Paul Ryan (R-2012) will be back for sure; he retired from the House in part over of disagreements with Trump, but one doesn’t just give up being Speaker and slink away into obscurity (just look at Newt Gingrich, he refuses to shut up or die), so I think Ryan is just biding his time and hoping the whole Trump thing blows over in the next decade. If the party shifts away from Trump, he might offer himself as a slightly more moderate (“moderate*”) alternative.

Or maybe Sarah Palin (R-2008) will try and reclaim the presidency for herself; she’s a hardcore right wing nutjob, she was a Bush supporter AND a Trump supporter, and she’s still relatively young, so I could see her stepping back into the spotlight to try and “being the country back” to the traditionalism of the early 2000s. Nostalgia is cyclical, so I figure around 2028 or 2032 people will start looking back fondly on the Clinton and Bush years (Clinton more so than Bush, what with 9/11 and the wars and such)

Tim Kaine isn’t even one of the famous senators; there are some senators that everybody knows, even if they’re not from your state, like Chuck Schumer, Joe Manchin, Lindsey Graham, Bitch McConnell, big names with big reputations. Tim Kaine is a nobody, just a bland and inoffensive white dude Clinton picked to be as uncontroversial as possible (she couldn’t pick a woman or a black person because then the ticket would have been “too diverse”). He’s not the future of the Democratic party, but I could see him trying to become part of the Senate leadership. Maybe the whip (vice leader), I don’t think he has what it takes to be leader outright.

I don’t think Mitt Romney (R-2012) will run for president again; that ship has sailed. Moderate Republicans are critically endangered, extinct in the wild, with single specimens in captivity (in Vermont, Massachusetts, and Maryland). After back-to-back losses in 2008 and 2012, I don’t think Republicans will run a moderate candidate ever again. Romney could maybe just maybe become the whip if he so desired, he’s a big enough name with support enough to become their presidential nominee, though he’ll never be the leader; McConnell was their golden goose, he gave hem exactly what they wanted and changed the game to give them an advantage even in minority. They will only ever elect hardliners like him from now on. Romney is too soft; he cares too much about the other side (he’s not liberal by any stretch of the imagination, he’s a Mormon for Brigham’s sake, but he voted to impeach Trump twice which means he may as well be a liberal in the eyes of the public)

Mike Pence has committed political suicide. Democrats hate him for his homophobia, sexism, racism, classism, and weird relationship with his wife who he calls “mother.” Republicans hate him because he didn’t break the law to re-elect Trump. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t. He’s ultraconservative and super religious, so under normal circumstances he’d be a shoo-in for the nomination, but after breaking with Trump in January he’s dead in the water (he didn’t even really break away, there was literally nothing legal he could do; if he had tried anything it would have been struck down by the courts). And besides that, Pence is boring as hell. He’s milquetoast, he’s a saltine cracker without the salt because it’s too spicy, he orders plain hamburgers with ketchup on the side, all his steaks are cooked well done, he gets a boner when he sees a woman’s ankle and has to self-flagellate for penance, he sends back water if it has too much ice because it makes his teeth hurt. He’s the sacrificial lamb they’d nominate specifically to lose so they can save a stronger candidate for later when there’s no incumbent.

Kamala Harris is basically president-in-waiting (or rather nominee-in-waiting; who knows if she can actually win?) Biden ran on the unspoken promise that he would step down in 2024, making her the front runner, but he has recently walked this back and says he plans on running for a second term himself, pushing Kamala back until 2028 at least. She has good PR and has convinced half the country that she’s a progressive instead of a cop, so if she runs she’ll definitely have an edge over Democratic challengers. The media picks the nominee, and in 24 or 28 they’ll pick her for sure.

It’s becoming increasingly harder for people to stay relevant over multiple decades. I can’t imagine any 2004 candidates running in 2024, but Bob Dole managed to get on as Ford’s #2 and come back as #1 himself twenty years later (he lost both times, but still). Richard Nixon beat the odds and actually got elected in 68 after losing the presidency in 60 and the governorship in 62; he was pretty much coasting on Eisenhower’s legacy, selling himself as the anti-Goldwater, who lost in 64 to LBJ in a landslide.

Trump is acting like he’s going to run again, but whether or not he’ll fully commit is up in the air. On the one hand, his least insane niece says that he doesn’t want to put himself in a position where he could lose again, his ego couldn’t take it, he’s so embarrassed he can’t even admit it happened the first time. On the other hand, he’s too proud to accept defeat and just let some other candidate take his spot as leader of the Republican Party; the Republicans haven’t had a leader since Eisenhower, every other president has disappeared after leaving office.

Nixon resigned in disgrace

Ford was elected out

Reagan disappeared in the 90s because he didn’t want the country to see him deteriorate from Alzheimer’s

Bush Sr was elected out

Bush Jr was despised with approval in the 20s (record low), and could potentially have been tried at The Hague if Obama had balls

Now Trump wants to stick around, even though he’s older than Reagan and FAR less healthy. He’ll probably be dead in 15 years anyway; no way he reaches 90. His mind may already be going, but unlike Reagan he isn’t self aware enough to know it, so he might try to stay in the spotlight even after the dementia sets in. Wo knows?

What his niece says, and what I think is most likely to happen, is that he will pretend like he’s running in order to scam donors out of millions of dollars to pay his exorbitant legal fees, but then bow out of the race before the primaries. Whichever candidate he personally endorses will become the nominee and go up against Biden. Biden will win the popular vote, but I don’t know if he’ll win the electoral college; if this happens for the third time in a quarter century, I expect nothing less than chaos in the streets, perhaps even civil war (well, I expected civil war after 2020, and we’re still standing, so again, who knows?). All I know is that congressional Democrats will throw a hissy fit but do nothing to stop the Republicans from sneaking their way into office without a mandate AGAIN.

The last Republican to legitimately win the presidency was George Bush Sr in 1988. Jr lost to Gore, and only got re-elected in 2004 because he invaded Iraq the year prior. Democrats have won 7 of the last 8 elections, including the last 4 in a row. There are more Democrats and left-leaning independents than Republicans and right-leaners. If the Republicans lose-but-win AGAIN, I don’t think the county could take it; there would be phony calls for secession on TV and legitimate whispers behind the scenes, there would be lawsuits, there would be an even bigger assault on the Capitol than January 6, people would riot, the National Guard would attack brown people with impunity while peacefully corralling the white ones with shields and loudspeakers.

There hasn’t been an assassination since 1963, and no assassination attempt resulting in injury since 1981. Someone threw a grenade at Bush Jr in 2005, but they wrapped a handkerchief around it so the lever didn’t release. I think multiple politicians on both sides of the aisle might be targeted in the event of another electoral college screw up.

Trump could face jail time for his tax crimes, though given his high profile I think he’d get off with a slap on the wrist. He has never faced consequences before, so why would they start now?

Biden Law, Five Years Lockdown Plan

2021-02-01 - Monday

Hello Pocahontas

Americans to be placed under Extreme Lockdown House-Arrest for at least 12 months, that is the plan. You will be stuck in your house like they did in China. You will starve to death and die. The plan is to begin this before 2022, as in as soon as possible. Your loved ones will die from Covid Vaccines which is already murdering hundreds to thousands of people. This is a hole straight down to the pits of Hell.

Canada Kidnapping Themselves

2021-02-02 - Tuesday

Biden, Harris, Napoleon Dynamite Voting Meme

When Canadians return to their home country, Canada, they're federally kidnapped, imprisoned in Covid Concentration Camps for many days, and then charged at least $2,000. Wow. Justin is so liberal. Let's all move to the Land of the Moose. 2 masks at least says CDC. Go to their website and read the article.

Try To Withdraw Money

If you try to take your money out of your bank, they'll flag you, stick the IRS up your butt. Just try it, I dare you. When you try to withdraw cash, watch what happens, and don't get me started with if you ask for gold when you try to cash out. Paper money was supposed to be an "I-Owe-You" check which is supposed to be exchangeable for actual gold, a place-holder.

All About Hive Blog

2021-02-03 - Wednesday

Picture of Joey Arnold

Hive is like Facebook except it pays you to post. Did you know Covid is also called SARS-COV-2? Wait a minute, whatever happened to SARS-COV-1? Did we have a pandemic for the first one? How are we already in the second one? Was I sleeping while the first one was going around? How many years ago was the first one? Is China stealing oil from Texas? Why was Joe Biden refused a Pentagon security clearance? There has been documented cases where people were missing over 90% of their brain tissue but where still able to function like a normal person. One person to even had just a thin layer around the inside of the skull. Literally an empty head and yet could still function as a human. They are destroying the second amendment right now. You have no idea.

Alex Jones and DR. STEVE PIECZENIK

2021-02-04 - Thursday

Trump Terminator

Big interview between Alex Jones and DR. STEVE PIECZENIK today, 2nd hour of the show. The dollar could lose over 20% of its value under Lord Biden before 2022 and much more the following 12 months. It is likely the dollar will die sooner or later meaning you must convert your dollars into something else while you still can. This is financial advice. You have been warned. Your money is on fire but not in a good way. You're leaking value each day. You might as well give me your money as you're losing your money each second. You're wasting your money as you let inflation destroy the value of fiat. Was the Burma Election stolen like it was in America? If you think Biden won, then you do NOT know who won in Burma. I don't care what military is doing. Who won the election in Burma? I'm asking who got the most real votes excluding the fake votes. I want to know who really won. Please let the REAL WINNER be the leader of what you call Myanmar. Whoever actually won should be allowed to run that country, period. Military should help whoever got the most legal votes in that nation. Period. I don't know who won. I am just saying let the real winner have the power, good or bad.

Fall or Rise of Empires

This is what Mike Adams said today. He said something bad could happen over night, that is to the extent the dollar crashes, they'll try to blame the crazy Redditters, the conservatives, for destroying the money, they'll come up with crazy excuses, conspiracy theories, and then say how they saved us by giving us Biden Coins or whatever they want to call it. They are trying to have one centralized global digital currency, no cash, no decentralized cryptocurrencies. So, I agree this could happen at any time, especially if three or more stimulus checks come out in 2021, as they spend more and more money, as people demand silver, gold, etc. The centralized banking system could fall in the next few years or sooner. As that happens, either the good guys or the crazy globalists and baby eaters can take over as that happens. So, in other words, we are in a major transition in global history similar to the rise or fall of other great empires like that of Rome, Babylon, Persia, England, China, etc. But I can't say if we are in the middle of the fall or the rise of an evil authoritarian regime.

Are you ready for Weapons of Mass Distraction?

2021-02-05 - Friday

Alex Jones

Happy birthday brother. Are you ready for Weapons of Mass Distraction? In order to buy guns in 2021 in America, you either have to right now or potentially soon will have to pay too many taxes, additional taxes, including gun related taxes, and pass a test which includes questions relating to if you want to own a gun. If you answer you want a gun, you fail the test because only crazy bad guys want guns. If you want a gun, pass a test. The only way to pass the test is to answer you do not want a gun. Once you answer you do not want a gun, then the genie in the bottle comes out and says in the voice of Robin Williams in Disney's cartoon movie, Aladdin, "As you wish." There were at least two 2020 USA General Election court cases which heard evidence meaning the other dozen or more cases were unconstitutionally dismissed by compromised judges. There is one case in Arizona which is leading towards potential ballot auditing. There may be other legal cases pending in other states in the United States of America. New court cases may rise. Others are ongoing. Some may be, if they haven't yet, potentially, refiled or retried. In some cases, you can do that. It's not double-jeopardy in some cases. It depends but you can sometimes do this depending on the details. A federal case for example could be then tried on the state level. That is not double jeopardy. You can pressure your local counties to call for ballot audits today. Join the revolution.

Nullifying Federal Executive Orders

North Dakota is planning to nullify (on a state level) unconstitutional federal executive orders. If you're not living in this state, you should either go there or encourage your state to call up North Dakota. Hello Texas, Idaho, Wyoming, Arizona, etc. In the world of rock paper scissor, you can see state and federal power. However, never underestimate the power of the county sheriff which trumps over them. You should make friends with your local sheriffs and talk to them about the rule of law regarding what you have to do in your county, legally speaking. Don't go against the sheriffs. Find out what they expect from you as a citizen of the county you're living in.

Amazon Spies

2021-02-06 - Saturday

Trump

Amazon vans have cameras actively spying on people, as in anybody and everybody as they drive around delivering packages, not just their customers but also neighbors and everyone else as well. They collect the data in order to develop a China Social Credit Score Database. Even if you're not on Facebook, they'll still have your data. If you do something that our overlords deem not right, your social credit score begins to go down and down. A lower Social Credit Score means you will not be able to buy and sell, travel, have food, have protection, have safety, have a job, have schooling, have a house, have children, have parents, have organs, have water, have power, have Internet, have apps, have trash, have doctors, have hospitals, have health care. When you call 911 and say somebody cut off your arm and you are bleeding to death, the operator will answer the phone and say, "Sorry, your social credit score is too low, please raise it to an acceptable level and try your call again. Have a good day. Good bye."

Cronyism Sucks

2021-02-09 - Tuesday

Cronyism Sucks

George Washington did NOT say, "My fellow Americans, read my lips, I hereby grant you some rights which we can then take away if there is a pandemic or if you feel a little unsafe regarding your neighbor's cannons." You can either help your state leave the United States of Satan or you can leave that state. A woman in Vancouver, Washington went to a hospital. Nurses and doctors tried to stick a needle in her arm against her wishes. She said no. The hospital called the police who came and kidnapped her for not breaking the law. No crime. The hospital and the police committed crime against her. And believe all women. And what if I told you she was black and black lives matter. And police are bad. The police might as well sell her to sex trafficking. Don't we want to defund the police? And I am Pro-Choice too. My Body My Choice. And none of your business. Thousands of people go to Oakes Farms Market in Florida daily without masks in 2020 and many of them go there seven days a week because it's the new Disneyland, the happiest place on earth, even some of their staff are 80 years old or older and yet are not getting sick. But if you do want to wear a mask, have at it. Hundreds of new customers come in each day from out of state, some come as far as like New York. You can tell they're new because when they enter the store, their jaws drop like as if they're cartoon characters.

Cash App

My Cash App is $joeyarnoldvn and what is yours? Let's have a party before the dollar dies. Let's come up with backup plans and come together in local communities while we still can. Now is the time. I will invest in a gold-backed cryptocurrency, as much as I can. Is there such a thing yet? Sign up to be a First Responder today, just call, not toll-free, at 1-800-Get-A-Gun-Duh. Don't kill your chickens, wait until they die of old age, say a little prayer to remember the wonderful life Chicken Little had and then get out your knife and prepare for a feast in honor of the life of the little guy. Study shows over 80% of Covid-19 Patients have vitamin D deficiency. Nurses stick stuff inside babies causing hearts to stop. After that, they try their best to restart the infant's hearts. Too many do die. It is covered up. You don't hear about it. Most viruses die in the air within seconds. Over 85 percent of child trafficking related things seem to be happening on Facebook Messenger.

Gold-Backed Crypto

Find me on Instagram at Joeyarnoldvn

Gold and silver are accepted as legal currencies in Utah, Oregon, Colorado, Oklahoma, and Missouri. Before 2030, globalists will most likely murder over 6 billion people. The good news is, number one, we can try to stop some of that, and, number two, regardless, you don't have to be one of them, you don't have to die, there may be only a billion people left on our planet soon. Come join me and survive this coming Holocaust. The greatest Holocaust ever. Save as many people as you can. But at the same time, you don't have to die. Get out of the big cities. Find a farm while you still can. You are running out of time. Find a community of like-minded people and get a room, I mean a community, a neighborhood, a state where you can find like-minded people. Do it while you still can.

Genocide Coming

Because there may be over 7 billion people who support the globalist agenda, they will end up dying most likely in the next few years. You must be prepared for this probability or worst case scenario. Every day you're still not dead yet is precious. You get what you promote. Justice is coming. There are consequences and rewards for the actions we take in life. Will you buy smart underwear which will be connected to the NSA? How do we detox from the lead which is in the soil? I have a friend named Tim Osman. Please don't Google his name. You can make money posting to blockchain social networks, I can help you sign up for free, no credit cards, no money required. I post on these websites and I make money. I did not put any money into them. You can take the money out. You can wire the money to crypto exchanges, banks, wallets.

Protonmail Banned Me on my 36th birthday.

2021-02-11 - Thursday

Protonmail Banned Me on my 36th birthday.

Protonmail Banned Me on my 36th birthday. Step one, find out how many people died annually for the last ten years in your country. Step two, please post those statistics for each individual year including 2020 in your report. We will copy and paste what you find everywhere. Thank you very much. Leftists say you have to say chest, can't say your baby is sucking on your breasts. You have to say human milk. You cannot say it is the milk of the mother. Oh My God. Russia killed the ALL-MIGHTY DOLLAR! I hate you RUSSIA! Are you happy America is becoming Venezuela in the next few years or much sooner because you do nothing, isn't that really cool that you're helping this republic and the world crumble? Are you excited as millions of people die? Do you wake up each morning happy that you don't care about this? Covid Vaccine has over 5 different viruses which it programs and mass produces in your cells to eat up your body from the inside-out, to attack the proteins, to kill your babies, to give you HIV, to kill your immune system and cause you to die from the common cold within months to the extend you're lacking enough essential vitamins.

Regarding Gold-Backed Cryptocurrencies

But the idea of a gold-backed cryptocurrency could at least in theory become a 2-in-1 deal where it might be backed by gold and yet as a fail-safe if all else goes wrong, if governments and others come in to confiscate the gold, you would still have something like Bitcoin or whatever type of cryptocurrency it may be. I see that as a potential two in one deal. Of course the risks, liability, privacy risks of having governments seek to imprison people for having gold which might be connected to a cryptocurrency, I understand that might be too big of a risk in some situations, it may be harder to be anonymous if police were to spot you holding some gold. Finding ways to stay as anonymous online in the mist of tyranny is a worthy cause and that is why I value the 4th amendment of the U.S. constitution. Cartoons and other children shows are actively singing songs and otherwise encouraging toddlers to wear masks, to not shake hands, hug, or get close to other people; to simply not be humans at all, this will scar these kids for the rest of their lives, deep intellectual abuse.

Brother Joined Hive

My brother joined Hive - When I Was Young, Busted Knees, No Helmets, No Limits

Mother cries as insulin for his son who could die without it costs more than $500 even as it only costs pennies to make. Biden did this. Watch the video of this mother in her car video. Listen to her passion as she speaks truth. They say even after everyone on the planet is vaccinated, we still must have lockdown globally, even in ten years from now. Are you happy for living on Planet Wall-E as Fat People stuck in The Matrix? Over ten million starved to death in 2020 thanks to people staying at home and being safe. We kept ourselves so safe, we ended up dying because we had no food. We are so scared, we make the problem worse. The odds of coming up with the exact numbers of the 2020 U.S. General Elections, Mathematician Expert Edward Solomon says there aren't enough stars in the known universe to have it come up by chance apart from electronic manipulation, statistically, it's astronomical, he went on to say there aren't even enough atoms in the universe. Biden won exactly the same percentage points across multiple precincts at designated times a day just long enough to put him in the lead. One example in Fulton County, Georgia on starting at 12:54 AM on Wednesday, the 4th of November of 2020, the percentage was set 5.5555%, and every 30 minutes to an hour plus a few times on Thursday, that is eleven separate times, each time it was exactly 5.555% percent, and that is humanly impossible to replicate by hand without the help of voting software.

Elmo Vaccine

Elmo got the vaccine and people on Sesame Street are locked in their homes like as if they were living in China. Children are being brainwashed. This is worse than sexual abuse. Green means you can travel. Different colors means different things under the Chinese Credit Score which is going to Europe, Australia, Canada, and is also slowly getting into America. If the centralized powers don't like you or your friends, then you can't work, school, travel, buy, sell, have your kids, have Internet, have a phone plan, health care, police care, fire care, water, sewer, garbage, food, etc. There is an alleged James Clapper interrogation audio tape which I'm listening to right now.

Shoveling Snow

2021-02-13 - Saturday

Michelle Obama, "Joe Biden, get your hands off my dick."

Before getting the Covid Vaccine, read the ingredients, the insert. And tell yourself, oh, I am putting this thing in my body, that is awesome. And oh, I am putting this other thing in my body. It is not a vaccine. Ignorance is Bliss. It's cool when you don't know you don't know something. It's cool when millions of people are likely to die or very close to it in 2021 because of Covid Vaccines.

Money is Dying

Cannot wait for the dollar to die. A study found that over 80% of those who got Covid were vitamin-D deficient. And the Flu magically disappeared during the winter. If you're going off the CDC website, you should make a list of the exact numbers.

Happy Valentines Day

2021-02-14 - Sunday

Joe Biden in like 2003

Happy Valentines Day. America has been dead for 209 years. They try to kill people via nano bots which goes into the body to cause flu like symptoms. That is fused with 5G, geoengineering, chemicals, waves, a variety of things working together. You must actively try ten times harder to counter as much of it all as you can, your ignorance is bliss, your children will suffer to the extent you try not to counter things you are yet to know. I repeat, things you are yet to know. Apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons a day but broken up gradually throughout the day, can help you. Encouraging healthy pH blood level balance minimizes cancer, detoxifies the liver, dissolves viruses, and helps the heart. The brain-gut connection. Is it true the last U.S. President to take the oath for the united states for America was back in around 1812? Has America been dead for over two centuries now? Did you know there is a star inside our earth? Biden is telling Americans to wear masks until 2022.

Reducing Zombism

Candida is a type of fungus which helps decompose dead bodies but the problem comes when the people are still alive while Candida is excessively growing and eating up your body even before you are actually dead. Therefore, you want to look at fasting, at starving those little guys at least once every ten years if not as often as you can to minimize how much of them you have inside of your biology. Borax detoxes fluoride from the brain. Inside your body are the bad guys, the fungi, which wants your body to die, and the good guys, which are the bacteria which wants your body to live, that is the civil war within your chemical makeup. The pineal gland in our brain is a spiritual window into the Supernatural Internet which transcends space and time, it truly is the third eye, but fluoride blocks it. Does the earth have two moons?

Party at Five. RINOs are Republican In Name Only and PINOs are Patriots In Name Only. Thousands of refugees are being allowed into California and Texas from Mexico but without being tested for Covid, no masks, no safety. But if you want to go anywhere or do anything, you have to get tested. When immigrants come in, as they do right now, they are NOT being tested for anything really, they can pass on diseases to you and you are not allowed to do anything period.

Texas Freezing

2021-02-16 - Tuesday

Girl from Firefly show

A 28 YEAR OLD WISCONSIN MOM DIES DAYS AFTER SECOND PFIZER SHOT. Why are kids sneaking out of the White House? Is Tom Cruise part of an off-planet corporation called Umbrella? You can find really old videos on the Internet of really tall people, some of them may be 14 feet tall or taller as you can see people and horses almost reach the height of this man's knees. Did you really think those videos were fake? Many times you'll find truth hiding in plain sight. Truth is often lying underneath your nose all along. This takes the Mandela Effect to a whole new level. Is the South Pole actually the North Pole? It's below zero degrees in Texas right now, they refusing to turn the power back on as people freeze to death, they're shutting down stores as people starve to death, and they're refusing to plow roads. You can literally watch videos of giant semi-trucks crashing into other trucks, at least three giant trucks, one which was going at least 70 MPH and the others were going pretty fast too, several people died in just that pile up alone.

Who is Oatmeal Joey Arnold?

I am single, 36 years old, I live in Shelton, I am Christian, no kids, I live with my parents, I don't wear a mask ever, I listen to Alex Jones, I love Trump, I am a little bit crazy, I don't work. I don't have a job. I just sit on a computer all day writing on my blog and that is it. Was the inspiration behind the Star Gate movies and shows stolen from the Native American Indians? Weather manipulation meetings at your local town hall in a county or state near you, why are you not there to ask them questions? Things got so bad in India that they created a task force and then ended up banning the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. That's how EVIL India is. Hey folks, how could India keep out our SAVIORS? We all know Bill Gates is the second coming of Jesus Christ. Kissinger wrote a report back in the 1970s regarding how to control the African population.

White Culture Dont Have Any Joke Yes We Do

Texas Dark Winter to last for weeks, people are freezing and starving to death, people are so excited as the globalists take over the world, Biden said the Dark Winter was coming, he was right. Be prepared for a new biological weapon, a new Covid disease, coming either this year in 2021 or at least before 2025. It will kill at least 4 billion people. Don't tell me I didn't warn you. I'm on record trying to tell you how bad things are. If you're reading this, you're guilty of not caring. Please, do something. The clock is ticking. Will China be aiming nuclear weapons at 24 targets across the globe, will it be real, will it be staged, will it be an excuse to lockdown the world, what is going to happen? Will it be exactly 24 different places in different countries around this planet? Will this be a good thing or a bad thing? Will the good guys or the bad guys be able to take control of whatever that might happen in February of 2021? Will it be any day now? Will people fall for false flags? Is there anything we can do right now?

Bill Gates Over Biden

Biden won't speak to world leaders. Boris Johnson said Bill Gates is really the head of the G8. This is how globalism works. They're getting the general population used to the world being run by technocracy. In a secret video, Mark Zuckerberg told his Facebook staff he didn't trust the Covid Vaccine. So, why isn't Mark telling his 2 billion users this? Why keep such a thing a secret? In the 1960s, America asked Russia to start a world war against China but Russia declined. That was declassified.

Photoshop Funny

1776 Put Mask On Americans No Way

Funny story today, somebody used photoshop to try to fool me ahahahahhaaa! Biden is taking over the Texan Power-Grid, red alert, warning warning. We know their plan. We know the patterns. They'll say deadlier strands are out there now. This will likely be by the fall of 2021 if not a lot sooner. The strands will generally be less deadly. But it's extremely coordinated, scripted, they will all try their best to make you gulp down this Kool-Aid of Death. Shifting into Techno-Scientific Dictatorship, they're phasing the general public to accept this shift in world history globally, most people are stuck in a trance and they do NOT even know it. Even if you tell them, they will say to you, "You are crazy." THEY'RE PUTTING CHEMICALS IN THE SKY THAT MAKES THE SNOW GAY. The power grid was an attack on water-power devices, especially in the 1930s. Some people had water-powered devices. They didn't need electricity because they water-powered devices.

Scaring Children to Death

A ten year old was admitted to the hospital because he was losing weight because he was refusing to eat for so long because he was afraid he would get Covid and die. Sergeant Major said they don't call it a Lie-Berry for nothing. Did you know they used to have water-powered mechanical devices? You were not told real history. A lot of stuff covered up. Why not get back to water power? Aren't you even just a little bit curious? People had free electricity thanks to tap water in the early 1900s. So, why would people give that up? What happened? Why trade that in for a monthly electricity bill?

We Need County Coin

2021-02-19 - Friday

Lauren Chen was on Friday Night Tights

Steele mentioned the idea of CountyNet. Also, he mentioned an idea of a CountyCoin which loses value the farther away from the county the coin moves in order to incentivize investing back into the same community as opposed to going excessively and obsessively overseas aggressively, as in too much and too often. I confess I fell for fake news when I thought Babbit died. I was wrong. Steele says Wall Street and others stolen 100 trillion dollars. People in power plants in Texas were ordered to lower down, to power down to zero percent in most cases, the documents are here, you can read the documents, they were ordered to do this on purpose, this is KILLING PEOPLE, and YOU DO NOT CARE. Do you have no friends or family in Texas? 2021-02-14 - Sunday - 08:51 PM EST - The 14th of February of 2021 - DOE Order Number 202-21-1 was issued for Texas (ERCOT), for more info, go to Energy dot gov, their official government website.

Texas Being Murdered

The Department of Energy (DOE) was ordered to turn off the power in Texas which is causing people to die. They're literally murdering people and nobody cares. The evidence is right there, we can all grab and share it. But nobody cares that thousands to millions of Texans are starving and freezing to death. I said, to death. The Department of Energy told Texas they CANNOT produce more energy, that is why people are dying. DOE Order Number 202-21-1 mentions ERCOT (ISO), this document can be read on their official government website, you can go there, you can read it, you can pass it on to your friends, or you can let your friends die in the cold in Texas with no power. Texas electricity bill for your power, just this week now, went from $50 per Megawatt to over $9000 per Megawatt. Breaking News,  Megan Fox is an Anti-Masker which means she is Pro-Vitamin, we are all going to die.

Why is Sweden banning masks?

Why is Sweden banning masks? Many times, they ban people from YouTube but then let other upload the same videos or similar videos and profit from them. The Covid Vaccine is not a remedy but an operating system.

We Stole It Fair & Square

Stores are not legally allowed to discriminate or disrupt commerce which comes from even the customers who refuses to wear masks. Stores can say it's private property. However, because the stores are open to the public, thanks to the 4th amendment, thanks to other things as well, prohibiting customers is discrimination among other things as well. The maskless buyer is not trespassing if he or she is not disrupting commerce. Moreover, when you prohibit customers from stores, then you are engaging in the disruption of commerce which may be illegal among other things as well partly because the customers are part of the free market exchange system which we call commerce. Stopping customers means you are disrupting commerce. That is illegal. You should go to jail for disrupting commerce. It may be many different things, not just that. Stores and states must be held accountable for violating laws. Stores are public. They cannot enforce masks. Churches however are legally considered to be private and can enforce masks.

Sound of Freedom is a great movie. The only preparedness that counts is the preparedness that happens when you don't yet need it. One day without notice, you will wake up and you will go to an ATM and it will not work. You will have no food in your house for many weeks to many months or longer. It takes less energy to walk on two legs than it takes to run four legs. The majority of suicides are from white male adults. Second spot is held by black male adults. Why was Bill Gates thrown out of 32 countries? New monthly vaccines for the virus of the month. Are you excited?

Gina interview. Why did NASA stop looking for life on Mars in 1976, why did they transition after that to geology, to looking for rocks? Trump got over 80 million votes while Biden got less than 40 million. Why are so many world leaders saying Covid-19 is permanent? They refuse to test it on animals because it kills animals or worse. No animals were harm in the making of this post. God save the animals. I'm glad we skipped animal-testing.

Being Dead Due To Birth

Tell Me Your Secrets

The only time your name is written in all uppercase capital letters is on your tombstone and yet that is how it's formatted on birth certificates, when parents sign it IN CURSIVE LETTERS when you are born, that is necromancy. When they say you can't leave the hospital with your own newborn infant baby without signing it, that is theft or worse. Legally speaking, it is a literal death sentence as you are literally selling away your baby. You need to live in groups of at least ten people. Zombies will be coming from the big cities. Protect your family from the walking dead. Why are so many big people being arrested around the world each day? Why?

Who Controls The Military Right Now?

Was an executive order or other items signed officially in 2019 authorizing a former (allegedly incumbent) U.S. President full control of the military even up to 60 days after an alleged inauguration of a alleged new administration (that is the new but fake President of the possibly defunct United Corporate States of America) which would end in or around, approximately, on the 20th of March of 2021? Please let me know such things were not signed. Please let your friends know nothing at all happened in 2019 at all. I'm only asking. I have no idea what happened.

Please tell your friends how awesome this is. Learn To Say No Just For One Day Article. Tree Court Article.

Globalist vs Brazil

In Brazil, they're trying to force the government to not only waive all liability for the Covid Vaccines but also to sign over military bases over to them as well, it's insane but crazy things happen daily if only you knew the half of it. Back to American news. The Supreme Court has committed treason against the constitution and the republic of these American states. They've ruled saying whoever cheats the most in an election gets to be the alleged president of this defunct fake corporation which we illegally call in all caps THE UNITED STATES OF [not 'for'] AMERICA. Cheating is not only allowed but now also endorsed by the highest court of the land.

My-Body-My-Choice No-Mask Sign

My-Body-My-Choice No-Mask Sign

Masks Causes Bacteria Pneumonia. My-Body-My-Choice No-Mask Sign. Their goal is to make all humans unable to naturally reproduce by 2030. Why is South Africa cancelling the Covid Vaccine? There is also related news in Brazil, India, etc. See, people are dying from vaccines. They've been spending billions to trillions of dollars covering up vaccine deaths for decades globally. They murder people who expose this or worse in most cases. You have no idea how bad it is. Bill Gates and others are involved in giving vaccines to people around the world. That is why Bill Gates is banned in so many countries. In other news, there may be someday selling cloned synthetic children meat to encourage people to eat. Hell, they may have it ready already. Celebrity meat actually. The only we defeat this invisible enemy is to decide our own destiny. 80% of people who died of Covid in Canada were in nursing homes. 101 Pocketball Journal Scans Uploaded.

Covid Vaccines Are Murdering People

Why are over 75% of U.S. military troops refusing the Covid Vaccine? Because vaccines kill people. But more than that, the Covid Vaccine is not a vaccine. It utilizes mRNA which turns your cells into virus factories. That is what mRNA is. See, the M on mRNA means MESSENGER. This is Basic Biology & Science 101 For Dummies here. The vaccine literally sends messages or mRNA into the cell nucleus to tell it to make specific items. Covid-19 and the alleged vaccines in response to it are both GMO-like chimera monsters. They're a combination of different viruses, different things, I'm talking Frankenstein on a microscopic level. I've been talking about this many times. That is why so many people and so many countries are saying no to the vaccines. And again, the Covid Vaccines are not even vaccines to begin with. I wouldn't even be surprised if nano-tech is involved among other things in regards to these things which are murdering people right now. Sadly, they're blaming the mRNA deaths on Covid. So, they're trying very hard to make you think that you need to take monthly vaccines. And the more people die, the more they'll say, "Hurry up, you need even more vaccines, etc." Remember, they have spent billions to trillions of dollars covering up vaccine deaths. They murdered many people who tried exposing them. Fake news would never tell you all of this because they're fake news.

Alex Jones Predicting Covid-19 Back in 2010

Wear a mask or I'm calling the cops. Alright, call the cops. I'm suing them. In 2020, over 40 million alleged votes for Biden were fake. In 2008, it was reported that HAARP was learning how to steer hurricanes via high-atmosphere heat injection, kind of like guiding a kitten with a string. Watch out for Bioterrorism says Bill Gates. Which reminds me, kind of funny how Texas was suddenly colder than Montana. Wow. Out of nowhere. What happened on this day in 1933? Reich Fire. Hitler. Germany. Klaus Schwab says you will ONLY ONLY ONLY eat bugs and will love it.

What is in the Covid Vaccine?

Some of the ingredients for the mRNA Covid Vaccine includes some of the most commonly consumed things including vinegar, salt, sugar, plus a few very common preservatives found in so many food items. Too many people buy processed foods which includes preservatives in them. So, why are these commonly consumed items in the vaccine? It is there to trigger autoimmune responses in your body's immune system. It may takes years for your body to get there, but slowly over time, your body will begin to develop allergies to salt, sugar, vinegar, etc. These allergies may spiral out of control into even worse problems over time. Now, that is just the tip of the iceberg. But it is a good thing to start with and share with others. Don't believe me. Don't take my word for it. Go get a list of the ingredients to these vaccines and post them here. I will wait for your awesome responses. Thank you so much in advance for responding with the real list of ingredients. Prove me wrong. Easy to do. Just show me the ingredients. Show me these items, like salt, is not in the vaccine.

Covid Vaccine Ingredients

Your body will become DEADLY-ALLERGIC to YOUR-OWN-BODY. Why is Pfizer giving their customers one thing but their staff a different thing? Pfizer got a new drug out which is going to help people deal with one of the side-effects of their own vaccines. So, they make money trying to fool you into getting one and then even more money when you have to come back to take some of their drugs to deal with the deadly side-effects. Have fun, kids. You WILL swell up like a balloon. I warned you. Why were thousands to millions of 2020 ballots had computer-printed vote marks as opposed hand-written vote marks all for Biden and none for Trump?

Trump 2024 is Retarded

Downvote because Trump won in 2020. See, they can steal it from Trump in 2024 too. We have to call for FORENSIC-STYLE ballot audits in each county each day. Call people. Email people. You can make a difference. Call the military. Call Congress. Call judges. Write letters. Protest in person. Make videos. Write articles. Share things everywhere. Do something. If you are reading this and you are doing nothing, then you deserve Biden and the Chinese takeover of America.

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY-08) on Twitter.

Don’t be taken in by Republican bullshit about the deficit. Republicans dole out huge globs of tax breaks to their filthy rich contributors and then blame Democrats for the size of the deficit.

If Republicans were really concerned about the deficit they would propose repealing the Trump tax breaks to billionaires passed in 2017.

There’s a clear longterm pattern. Republicans in power give huge tax breaks to their rich buddies. Their fiscal mismanagement then leads to huge deficits and their miscalculations wreck the economy and hurt most people except the rich. Democrats then get elected, raise taxes on the rich, and create programs to help the poor and middle class. And they reduce the deficit or sometimes even create surpluses in the process. The filthy rich are outraged and use lax campaign finance laws to finance a Republican comeback by stoking racial bigotry or resentment towards poor people. Republicans are then returned to power and start giving large amounts of money to the rich again while sometimes throwing token pocket change at everybody else. The deficit rises as a result and they then blame this on social programs.

Following 12 years of Republican presidents with their three recessions, Bill Clinton raised taxes on the rich and the economy saw a boom which lasted both his terms and experienced several budget surpluses. Barack Obama had to clean up after G.W. Bush’s Great Recession (Bush’s second recession) and created growth which Trump then typically lied about initiating himself. Now Joe Biden has to restart the economy which collapsed because of Trump’s criminal mismanagement of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Republicans and some of their allies in the media repeatedly are able to get away with the false claim that they are good for the economy. This is an outright lie.

The economy is not considered a “woke” issue. But progressives need to spend A LOT more time talking about how chronically bad the Republicans are at managing it. We need to drive a wooden stake through the heart of the myth that the GOP is good for the economy. Once that mistaken belief is shattered for good, the Republicans will lose their last respectable appeal to a small but important cohort of swing voters.

[judithbutlersdealer]

not to get too political but Joe Biden is such a dumb bitch like why couldn’t he just enjoy his brand as Obama’s quirky BFF and let everyone love him and then fuck off to retirement for his remaining years...... like what would he have lost? a run for presidency where everybody finds out what a gross person he is and starts to hate him??? a run for presidency that he’s going to lose???? increased public scrutiny after decades of everybody leaving him alone to do his dumb shit except for the memes about how cute he and Obama looked together??? an extremely rapid deterioration of his loveable public persona that he is obviously in no way mentally equipped to handle??? men are stupid 

[wrongfullythinking]

And then there were five...

The numbers say 20.  Or maybe 21.  It’s hard to tell.  But in reality, I think we’re down to five.  Five’s a good number, the same amount you can fit on a basketball floor and really know who is out there.  Let’s face it, nobody but the most die-hard fan knows who bats 8th and plays left.  Five?  Five’s a number we can deal with.  And looking at the state of things, we’re down to five realistic candidates.  Maybe some of the other 15 or 16 will get a nice mike-drop moment, and maybe they’ll get a chance to advocate for a cause they believe in.  But if your party is so oddly out that you need to use the presidential nomination as a way to get your ideas across... well, it worked for the Bern, but rarely do imitators have the same success as the original.

In this piece, I’m going to give brief thoughts on the five candidates, and then assign my own completely arbitrary “chance-of-winning-the-nomination” percentages.

The Frontrunner: Biden (50%) At this point, [5/2/2019], preliminary voters are presented with a choice: Joe Biden, or somebody else?  It is very much Biden vs. the Pack, and if Biden is the nominee, he’ll make it very clear that it is actually TheObamaLegacy vs. EverythingNotObama.  Without an Obama endorsement, that’s a tough one to pull off.  Frankly, I don’t think Joe Biden is the strongest candidate, and I don’t think he will make a great president.  But he’s also not going to go away until the very end of this, and if he loses, it will be because everybody else decides to unite behind another candidate.

There’s this fiction that Biden is the most “electable” candidate.  He’s not, he’s the third-most electable.  The second-most electable is Michelle Obama.  She is a sure-fire nominee and general election winner, pulling southern states, the female vote, Florida and Michigan away from Republicans and guaranteeing there is no red path to 270.  Does Biden do any of that?  Probably not.  He’s not Bill Clinton, with charisma to go with midwestern history.  He’s not Obama himself, with a genuine melancholy and a realist outlook.  He’s a meme more than a politician since 2008.

But let’s get straight what matters about Biden and what doesn’t.  Nobody really cares about what he said to Anita Hill or his tough-on-crimes stance in the 90s.  The media will keep dredging up these issues, and the fact that they’re having to dig this deep to find some pretty thin soil tells you a lot about Biden.  He’s pretty hard to object to, and Trump is very easy to object to.  There is no doubt that Biden will garner the vote of everybody who hates Trump.  But can you win an election with just “Not-Trump?”  Apparently not, if I remember the 2016 final tally.  [But let’s not get started into how Democrats can bungle this thing, if they don’t learn from their “ignore the whites and the heartland, whine incessantly about the other guy, and then say that we should thank them for raising taxes” plan from 2016, they’re hopeless anyways.]

How can Biden win the nomination? The longer everybody else stays in, the more likely Biden wins.  Let’s be clear: Biden is going to be the “least objectionable” candidate in both the Primary and the General.  Biden’s chances also go up every time somebody else goes low, but his years of experience as Washington and his long, long list of friends, combined with strong association with Obama, make him the most resilient and easily-forgiven of the candidates.

How does Biden lose the nomination? The rest of the field unites behind one or two other candidates who pound Biden with policy expertise, passionate speeches, and a presidential air.  Or, frankly, Biden himself disengages.  The more time Biden has to prepare (and hire the best speech-writers), the more Biden is likely to be president.  The more time the media spends showing his off-the-cuff gaffes (and there will be plenty), and we could see a Howard Dean scenario emerge, provided there is another strong candidate.  The other danger to Biden is that the young vote deserts him in favor of another candidate, and the older generation stays apathetic for the days of Obama.

What to expect from a Biden presidency: First, a lot less headlines.  Wouldn’t it be nice to open CNN on any day and see that the webpage’s headline was not about the President?  That’s not a ringing endorsement of Biden, nor will it excite the often-raving-horde of young politicos.  But let’s be honest... young politicos have always been a bit of a raving horde, and this generation really isn’t different.  They just tweet instead of march and browse webpages instead of newspapers. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Biden establish a legacy as the “infrastructure President.”  And that’d be fine with most Americans.  I certainly would love to see some high-speed rails, because **** the airline companies.  They’re terrible.  The American Highway System is a wonder of the modern world, and improving it with a series of electrical refueling stations and solar-powered rest stops couldn’t hurt.  Infrastructure is an easy win, and Biden’s going to take easy wins.  As he should.

The Rabble Rouser: Bernie Sanders, 15% The Bern seems to be a better candidate on paper than he actually is; right now, he’s benefitting from the same early-momentum wave that carried Hillary to the Chair of the Anointed One at the Democratic Convention.  Bernie’s always had bad timing though, and I’m not convinced this is any different.  Had Biden stayed out of the race, I’d put Bernie’s chances at 30 or 40%.  But with Biden in, I’m not sure there are enough Obama-era democrats who actually prefer the Bern.  Sure, the young/gay/urban/unemployed/coastal [pick two] crowd who wants to reshape the country into a Scandinavian one loves him.  But how many of us want to weigh our trash and be charged 6$ for each pound of it the garbage guy has to pick up?  How many of us want to be told by a bank that they can’t offer us a loan, because we didn’t attend a prestigious enough university [coastal degrees only for investment bankers]?  Let’s not even start on 55% tax rates for the middle class or subsidizing a 29-year-old’s NYC apartment as he trucks through a medieval literature degree one-course-at-a-time.  This is obvious hyperbole, but “democratic socialism” starts with “democratic,” and that means “the beliefs of the people” are synonyms with “the will of the people.”  Could some of the Bern’s policies work in America.  Sure.  But there’s no evidence that he can convince any except his already die-hard advocates that they all can, and a policy doesn’t make a system.  I’m not convinced Americans, be they blue or red or the purple-murky-middle, are really excited about this sort of sea change.

How to Sanders win/lose the nomination? If the “woke” wing of the party fails to find a demographic-win in Harris or Buttigieg, and decides to yell loud enough to keep the Obama-era democrats from crowning Biden, or if Biden drops out as well as Harris/Buttigieg, Sanders could end up engaged in a rhetorical battle with Warren that neither of them want, but the country might need.  At that point, it’s a coin-flip and a nasty convention, and lines in the sand may become tracks on the ground, separating the haves-and-have-nots in the Democratic party.  Still, Sanders could emerge in such a scenario with a win, though I’d tip my hand towards Warren.

What to expect from a Sanders presidency: There’s a small chance we get a lot of everything, and a large chance we get absolutely nothing, depending on how Congress plays out.  It is always amusing to me to watch candidates at this stage talk policy, because, you know... the President doesn’t write policy.  Okay, he [or soon-to-be “she”] does, but not really.  You’ve got to go back to the 70s/80s to find Presidents who were really able to institutionalize their policies in statute, and unless Sanders picks up a majority in both Houses, and even then, it is tough to see most of his ideas actually making it into law.  I’ve critiqued Obama before as being “the Toothless President,” because his “signature accomplishment” of the AHCA is already mostly dust-in-the-wind, and it wasn’t even much of a victory to start with [he didn’t even get a government-based option!].  Sanders’ ideas are likely too big for any political reality, and remember, he’s been in the Senate for a LONG time.  How much of his work do you see in your daily life?

The Best: Elizabeth Warren, 30% One of the strangest (and most chilling) realities of this election cycle is how dismal Warren is polling.  What we’re seeing here is what I call “The Hillary Effect,” where an unlikable-older-white-woman is conjuring up all our memories of nasty assistant principals and that mean piano teacher who kept whacking our fingers.  Warren is neither of those things, but her image is not, at this point, helping her.  Warren needs the rest of the electorate to come to Warren-land, where what matters is your policy chops, and it remains to be seen if the Democratic party (no racism, no slander, no ableism!) allows itself to move past her white-and-rich appearance.

So, let’s have that experiment.  Let’s get past the appearance and the fact that she listed herself as 25% Native American in order to get a law school scholarship.  What do you have left?  What you have left is a woman who can be President.  She’s been a far more successful politician than either Sanders or Biden, and she’s the candidate with the best touch to the realities of the parties from coast-to-coast.  Warren’s policies, although a bit left-of-center, are clearly centered around the groups she wants to elevate: small businesses, Americans with children, and all of us who are willing to work for a living but want to be able to live like we want if we do.  Warren’s the president who believes in exchange: you put in your time with her, and you feel like she’ll give you something back.  That’s a big difference from the Hillary Clinton campaign.  Look at the Clinton slogan: “I’m with her.”  Compare that to Trump’s slogan (Make America Great Again), and we know which one won.  On a slogan level, the second one SHOULD win.  You want a president who is about making the country great.  Warren’s the politician who gets that, and understands how Trump is appealing to people’s needs, rather than setting out for a list of “the world should be like this.”  The fact that her policies are so well-defined and solidly based in the needs of Americans is what sets her so far apart from the rest of the crowd.  I have no qualms in saying that of the current pack, I would much rather have Warren as my president than any other candidate, and it isn’t close.

How does Warren win/lose the nomination? Warren’s path to victory starts by convincing Obama-era democrats that she is more Obama than Biden is.  That’s a tough sell, because she looks more like Hillary... who, let’s not forget, lost a nomination to Obama before she lost to Trump.  Warren needs to separate herself from Hillary and align herself with Obama.  Frankly, an Obama endorsement might be the thing that lands the race in her lap.  Warren also needs the conversation to revolve around policy.  She’s the best at that, and she needs to convince people that she can get her policies not just in front of Congress, but through it.  The less talk is about policy, and the more it is about nebulous ideas or demographics or social media or broad philosophical stances, the worse Warren will do.

What to expect from a Warren presidency. We might get some high-speed rails, but we’ll likely see taxes go up on the rich, stay stagnant on the middle class, and see some supplement for popular welfare-type programs (college aid, family aid, etc.).  I’m not convinced Warren can make a difference in healthcare, and I’m fine if she doesn’t; we’ve wasted 12 years on the topic now and it just may not be the window.  But there are so many other issues that Warren can tackle that would make a difference to Americans.  I’d love a tax credit for putting solar power on a roof, and Warren’s the one I see making that happen, not Sanders.  I’d like to see university students get some more support federally [good job on Summer Pell!] and that is most likely to come from Warren.  Generally, I think we’ll see the “B” versions of her stump-speech policies become realities.  The middle-50% of Americans will pay 20-30% in taxes, not 15, and the highest-1% will pay 40%, not 50 or 70.  Small businesses will get their health care burden for employees subsidized, but won’t be able to write off all debts for a decade.  Farmers may again be able to make a profit off a cow, though we may all pay an extra 25c per gallon for milk and an extra 30c per pound of beef.

((My wish list for Warren: rein in credit card companies and payday loans.  Nobody but a bank should be able to give you a credit card, let’s stop all this “Sears Card, Best Buy Card, Kohls Card” nonsense that keeps American families in debt from their late-teens to retirement.  And banks need transparent policies about awarding credit cards and loans, and be forced to stick with them, not making nebulous decisions about eligibility based on who-the-lending-officer-is and the skin color of their applicant.  /rant end))

Bernie 2.0 or Trump 2.0???: Buttigieg, 3% Buttigieg may have the most energy, but the primary process may be the most damaging to him.  I mean, it let him get into the race in first place, and he does look a bit like a Kennedy, doesn’t he?  And his charisma is first-rate, his qualifications trump Trump’s at this point in the last election cycle [low bar, right?] and he’s just non-white enough [because he has sex with men, so that counts] to keep some of the Democrat’s own bloodhounds off his back.  The weaknesses are also glaring: he doesn’t have the policy of Warren, the political capital of Biden, or the funds and the rabid fans of Bernie.  But he is from a Midwestern state, and the Democrats could do worse than considering that.  The trouble here is that no one really sees the energy lasting for another year.  But hey, it worked for Trump, right?

The trouble is that Buttigieg needs a Trump-like groundswell of support to carry him to the nomination, and right now, that base is going Sanders, and may squash any non-Sanders candidate who should appeal to them simply by virtue of them already having Sanders bumper stickers.  To get it, Buttigeig may have to be the one who starts to go low, and he’s shown a reticience to do so.  At some point, Buttigieg will need to argue that he’s the Midwestern candidate, and the Democrats need the Midwest.  How he makes that argument, who he convinces, and if anybody can be convinced, will all dictate how long Buttigieg stays relevant.

How does Buttigieg win/lose the nomination? Frankly, I don’t see this happening without Sanders dropping out the race, and that likely means a Sanders health problem.  That’s not an exciting prospect for anybody, but if Sanders drops out and then endorses Buttigieg, we could see a late-term surge for him past the other remaining candidates.  He has to raise enough money to be in it for that long, and he’s got to continue to have great town halls and debates, which are two areas where he shines.  I think Buttigieg is going to be a player in the democratic party for years to come, but I don’t think this is his race.

The Californian: Harris, 10% Harris is not likable.  She wants to be Michelle, and she’s not.  Oh yeah, earlier, when I said that Michelle Obama was the second-most electable person in America?  That’s because she’s behind Beyonce.  And let’s be clear, Harris is NOT Beyonce.  That’s not a dig against either of them, it is a reality of the situation: there are a number of high-powered black women easily in the public eye (in addition to the above two, let’s not forget Oprah, Whoopi, and Stacy Abrams), and Harris is less-likeable than all of them.  She comes across brusque, aggressive, and well... a little bit like Trump.  That’s not what we want, right?  Right?  The point is, the Democratic party vilifies unlikeable women, and if Warren is struggling with this, Harris is absolutely going to drown in it.  We can talk about feminism and compare waves all we want, but people are going to pay lip-service to that in public, and in private, quietly mark ballots for Biden.  That’s always a concern of the Democratic party, and I’m not sure Harris is the one that cures it.  I am sure that Harris does not carry the female vote away from Biden, Sanders, or Warren.  She’s not a woman’s candidate.

What’s really difficult for Harris is that she’s not anyone’s candidate.  California?  Sure, why not, but any democrat carries California against Trump.  Who cares?  The black vote?  Last I checked, it was what, roughly 8% of America and not enough to carry Pennsylvania or Michigan?  Nor any of the Deep South (that Obama won) against a Trump campaign.  The nice part of this is that Harris has the potential to make in-roads with a lot of groups.  She’s a professional, she has a presidential air, and she has a prosecutor’s wit.  She’s unashamedly intelligent and not afraid of a big moment, like we saw with the 13,500-to-teachers announcement or the recent Barr hearings.  She’s less good in-the-moment, where she comes across as a lawyer and not a politician, appealing to the paper rather than the audience.  And there’s not a good sound-byte here yet.  But Harris could be all those things.  Maybe.

How does Harris win/lose the nomination? Harris gets 10% here because she may be the one with the most obvious route past Biden, if Sanders and Warren get out of her way.  She needs to improve her on-stage performances (that Town Hall was dismal) and she needs to make sure her focus is where it needs to be, and not get caught talking about things like medical care or Yang’s tech-policies that are clearly not her wheelhouse.  It is a matter of sticking to her lane, and then including as many people as possible in her car.  She wants to pull people towards her, and the better she can do that, and avoid her lawyer’s instinct of defining boundaries of “Yes” and “No,” the better she’ll do.  Harris has the real potential to use this race to grow up from prosecutor to politician, and if she does that, she could be a force.  I don’t see her as a serious challenge to Warren or Sanders if it comes down to them as the final two, but I do see her challenging Biden if it ends up with the two of them.  Harris needs to stay in the race, keep practicing her presence, and start avoiding troublesome questions like a politician, while maintaining a few key clear policies that people can tie to her name.  The bump-for-teachers was a great start, and if she could become “the education candidate,” we might really have something here.

The Rest: 2% I feel like the rest of the field isn’t trying to be President, they’re trying to use the nomination process to make money/crusade-a-cause or just stir up feelings.  I’m disappointed this is happening to democrats, because it keeps the five real potential candidates from offering powerful distinctions.  Does the party want to move towards Bernie-socialism?  Can we believe in Farmers?  Do Democrats actually value the MIdwest (according to Hillary, no... does Biden change that narrative)?  What is the role of the US internationally, specifically with regards to China and a post-Brexit UK?  Was is the reasonable path towards renewable energy, and how does it help me lower my energy bill next January?  Will I be able to claim Social Security, and if the system is poor, how do we fix it [or incentivize workers and companies to start doing a better job with retirement plans]?  What does a rising interest mean for American home-buyers, and do we want Americans to buy homes?  There are so many questions that the candidates differ on, and I worry that we won’t be able to hear from the important candidates on them, because we’ll be hearing somebody’s own hot take on Putin or how Universal Basic Income is something we should pretend to care about for the next 12 minutes.  That’s a disservice to the party and the voters, and I hope the debate moderators, pundits, and press over the next 12 months give us a clear view of where the candidates stand and the differences between then.

The afterthought: AOC. Well, we’ve got to talk about her, right?  The thing is, we don’t.  She’s not a political force, she’s a social one.  So, let’s get the obvious out of the way: she’s not eligible to run for President now, though she might be in four years (I’m actually not clear on where her birthday lines up with inauguration day, and I don’t think she’s important enough to check).  The very real flaw here is that AOC is not representative.  No person is.  Yes, I get that she’s non-white and female.  Guess what, our country is about 50% male and somewhere around 50% white.  So by virtue of being not, it is impossible to argue that someone is.  However, the real problem with “representative” is that AOC is coastal and urban, and her perspectives are entirely based on those realities.  This is a shame, because for all that people can tout her LatinX heritage, she is very much out-of-tune with high-LatinX states like New Mexico, Texas, and even the non-coastal parts of California.  Does that matter in an electoral college world?  Maybe not... no Democrat is expected to carry Texas, and no Democrat will fail to carry California.  But she’s not a candidate (like Harris, or Obama) who can expect to pull a huge amount of votes simply based on her demographic information.  That math has never worked out as well as pundits want it to... remember the Palin experiment?  That certainly didn’t persuade the female vote to go Red.  And this is one place where I think the American electorate is sadly underestimated; it is assumed we vote for people who look like us, and I find American voters quite a bit more savvy than that.  AOC doesn’t pull the LatinX vote as a block, and she certainly doesn’t carry Texas.  Alongside the coastal-based policies and city-only mentality she carries, there is no reason to nominate AOC in four years.

[orbemnews]

Analysis: The 35 most outrageous lines from Donald Trump's 'interview' with Sean Hannity I use the word “interview” lightly here because what Hannity did in his capacity as a “journalist” was something short of asking tough questions of a public figure. It was more like having a few beers with an old friend who you were hoping might help you get a job one day. 1. “Well, we’re seeing a lot of people. We’re seeing a lot of good Republicans and a lot of good Americans, in some cases, great Americans. And we are working very hard.” What was the question from Hannity that elicited this response? “You were working as hard as you did when you were in the White House, except you play a little golf more, that you’re keeping an insane schedule, seven days a week. You really don’t stop.” And away we go! 2. “You get impeached for doing nothing wrong. Then you get a second impeachment for doing nothing wrong.” The first impeachment was because Trump asked a foreign power to investigate the son of a political rival and hinted that the country owed him that because of all the aid America provided. The second was because Trump egged on a crowd that went on to stage a violent insurrection at the US Capitol that left five people dead. So, yeah, “nothing wrong.” 3. “And I think we’re — you’re going to see something that will start to take place in ’22 and will culminate in ’24.” Well, this sure sounds like Trump is running again, no? 4. “But I had an instance where on a slippery, slippery ramp, piece of steel, very steep and very long, no railings, no nothing, and it was pouring at West Point. And the last thing I want to do is go down because when Gerald Ford went down, it was not good.” So we’re back on the ramp thing now? 5. “Well, Air Force One is a very big plane. And usually, what they try and do is shield the wind. You know, when they park it you can turn it in angles and so you don’t ever have too much. I’ve never seen too much wind.” …… 6. “Nobody was tougher on Russia. And frankly, getting along with Vladimir Putin is a good thing. And I got along with him very well.” “Trump sides with Putin over US intelligence” — July 16, 2018 7. “So now something’s going on with Taiwan. Something maybe is going on with Ukraine. This never was a big subject when I was president.” Something’s happening here. What it is ain’t exactly clear … 8. “I have a great relationship with a certain man that’s got great power over North Korea.” Who could it be? This game is fun! 9. “The Russian hoax was very, very bad for the relationship that we would have with Russia.” So, uh, it wasn’t a hoax. Like, at all. 10. “The wall, getting the wall built and the wall we — we’re up to almost 500 miles and completing it was very easy.” Know what wasn’t easy? Getting Mexico to pay for it. Which they didn’t. 11. “The wall is imperative. All of the things that go with the wall, the technology that goes into the wall and with the wall is so imperative.” So, if I am reading this right, the wall — I think — is imperative? 12. “One other thing, they’re sending us not their best people. They are sending us people that, in many cases, not in all cases, are murderers, drug dealers, human traffickers, and really bad — rapists, really bad people.” Yes, Trump really said this about Mexico. And yes, it is almost exactly what he said in his announcement speech for president in 2015, which went like this: “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” This time around, Trump didn’t add the “good people” part, though. 13. “Very simple, more liberty, more freedom, of belief in the Constitution, lower taxes, less bureaucracy, constitutionalists on the bench. You want secure borders, legal immigration, energy independence. You believe in law and order, safety and security for every American. Simple stuff. School choice.” This word salad is Trump’s answer to what the “Trump agenda” for the future looks like. Very reassuring! 14. “So many different things that — look, we got 75 million votes. It’s more than any sitting president in history by far.” OK, this is the actual transition Trump made. He was talking (and talking) about the Trump agenda and then — whammo! — right into the whole thing about how many votes he got in 2020. Super normal! 15. “I don’t know if you know, Sean, usually in a second term a president gets less votes. I got 12 million more. It’s the biggest that’s ever happened in history, from 63 to 75. Never happened before. And all of these things are good.” I, just, uh, I have no idea what to say here. I will say that I, too, like good things. 16. “And I don’t know if Joe knows what’s going on with it, because I think you have a cabal, you have a group of people that are sitting around a table just saying do this, do this, do this. They’re giving him these things to sign. It’s hard to believe.” OK, so there is a “cabal” of people just giving a clueless President Biden “things to sign?” That IS hard to believe! 17. “We were supposed to lose 25 seats. I got involved. I called 56 different districts. And we ended up picking up 16 instead of losing 25.” Uh, it’s not that simple. 18. “Lisa Murkowski is a disaster. I mean, she’s a total disaster.” … said the former REPUBLICAN President of the United States. 19. “And I was making calls getting congressmen elected.” Tell me more about these magical calls … 20. “We’ve expanded the Republican Party.” “Quarterly Gap in Party Affiliation Largest Since 2012” — Gallup, April 7, 2021 21. “But I’m at 128 and two when I endorse people, 128 and two.” 22. “You know, I cut taxes more than any president’s ever cut taxes.” For the BILLIONTH time: He did not. 23. “We did a great job. We got very little credit for the great job we’ve done.” Donald Trump on his handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. Yes, really. 24. “I’ll give you a little breaking news. Pfizer is in with the FDA. And what the FDA did with Johnson & Johnson is so stupid.” [“BREAKING NEWS” banner] “Pfizer is in with the FDA.” And, no, I have no idea what he is talking about either. 25. “I said, they want me to do a commercial, some commercial. And they do this pause.” Trump seems to be suggesting here that “they” (the Biden administration? the FDA?) wanted him to film a commercial telling people to make sure to get the Covid-19 vaccine, but he said no because the Johnson & Johnson vaccine was paused? Or something? 26. “You know, I can be liked by everybody. But I won’t be doing a good job.” Important note: Trump is no longer president. 27. “I think it’s very suspect is what they did with Johnson & Johnson, because the only people that are happy about that are Pfizer and Moderna. The only people that are happy about that because what they did is a terrible, terrible thing.” Trump is suggesting — with zero evidence — that Pfizer and Moderna are somehow responsible for the pause in the J&J vaccine. Man, this conspiracy goes deeper than I even thought! 28. “I tell you that at least eight senators would have lost their race. I could name them but I don’t want to embarrass them but that includes Mitch, who is heading south.” The idea that Mitch McConnell would have lost without Trump’s support is, candidly, laughable. 29. “And I’m very popular in Kentucky. I love Kentucky. And they love me.” “I love lamp.” — Brick Tamland 30. “Look, almost everybody I endorse wins.” 31. “But you know what, I love doing it because I help people. And I’ve helped them more than any president with the cutting of taxes, with the regulations, with right to try.” Trump on what he loved about the White House. You owe him, America! Bigly. 32. “And I’ve added something called Space Force. It’s going to be so powerful, so important.” 33. “I got tremendous numbers. Nobody has ever gotten the numbers I got. No sitting president has come even close. There’s more popularity now than there was the day before the election because they see how bad things are at the border.” This is Trump’s answer to whether he is running again in 2024. I like this as his slogan for that race: “I got tremendous numbers. Nobody has ever gotten the numbers I got.” It could work! 34. “I got along great with President Putin. I liked him. He liked me. That’s a good thing, not a bad thing.” “Biden administration confirms Russian agent shared 2016 Trump polling data as part of election interference efforts” — April 15, 2021 35. “Getting along with Russia is a good thing. Getting along with these countries is a good thing, not a bad thing.” “Russia Continues Interfering in Election to Try to Help Trump, U.S. Intelligence Says” — September 2, 2020. Yeah, this feels like a good place to end.

Analysis: The 35 most outrageous lines from Donald Trump's 'interview' with Sean Hannity

New Post has been published on https://appradab.com/analysis-the-35-most-outrageous-lines-from-donald-trumps-interview-with-sean-hannity/

Analysis: The 35 most outrageous lines from Donald Trump's 'interview' with Sean Hannity

I use the word “interview” lightly here because what Hannity did in his capacity as a “journalist” was something short of asking tough questions of a public figure. It was more like having a few beers with an old friend who you were hoping might help you get a job one day.

1. “Well, we’re seeing a lot of people. We’re seeing a lot of good Republicans and a lot of good Americans, in some cases, great Americans. And we are working very hard.”

What was the question from Hannity that elicited this response? “You were working as hard as you did when you were in the White House, except you play a little golf more, that you’re keeping an insane schedule, seven days a week. You really don’t stop.” And away we go!

2. “You get impeached for doing nothing wrong. Then you get a second impeachment for doing nothing wrong.”

The first impeachment was because Trump asked a foreign power to investigate the son of a political rival and hinted that the country owed him that because of all the aid America provided. The second was because Trump egged on a crowd that went on to stage a violent insurrection at the US Capitol that left five people dead. So, yeah, “nothing wrong.”

3. “And I think we’re — you’re going to see something that will start to take place in ’22 and will culminate in ’24.”

Well, this sure sounds like Trump is running again, no?

4. “But I had an instance where on a slippery, slippery ramp, piece of steel, very steep and very long, no railings, no nothing, and it was pouring at West Point. And the last thing I want to do is go down because when Gerald Ford went down, it was not good.”

So we’re back on the ramp thing now?

5. “Well, Air Force One is a very big plane. And usually, what they try and do is shield the wind. You know, when they park it you can turn it in angles and so you don’t ever have too much. I’ve never seen too much wind.”

……

6. “Nobody was tougher on Russia. And frankly, getting along with Vladimir Putin is a good thing. And I got along with him very well.”

“Trump sides with Putin over US intelligence” — July 16, 2018

7. “So now something’s going on with Taiwan. Something maybe is going on with Ukraine. This never was a big subject when I was president.”

Something’s happening here. What it is ain’t exactly clear …

8. “I have a great relationship with a certain man that’s got great power over North Korea.”

Who could it be? This game is fun!

9. “The Russian hoax was very, very bad for the relationship that we would have with Russia.”

So, uh, it wasn’t a hoax. Like, at all.

10. “The wall, getting the wall built and the wall we — we’re up to almost 500 miles and completing it was very easy.”

Know what wasn’t easy? Getting Mexico to pay for it. Which they didn’t.

11. “The wall is imperative. All of the things that go with the wall, the technology that goes into the wall and with the wall is so imperative.”

So, if I am reading this right, the wall — I think — is imperative?

12. “One other thing, they’re sending us not their best people. They are sending us people that, in many cases, not in all cases, are murderers, drug dealers, human traffickers, and really bad — rapists, really bad people.”

Yes, Trump really said this about Mexico.

And yes, it is almost exactly what he said in his announcement speech for president in 2015, which went like this: “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” This time around, Trump didn’t add the “good people” part, though.

13. “Very simple, more liberty, more freedom, of belief in the Constitution, lower taxes, less bureaucracy, constitutionalists on the bench. You want secure borders, legal immigration, energy independence. You believe in law and order, safety and security for every American. Simple stuff. School choice.”

This word salad is Trump’s answer to what the “Trump agenda” for the future looks like. Very reassuring!

14. “So many different things that — look, we got 75 million votes. It’s more than any sitting president in history by far.”

OK, this is the actual transition Trump made. He was talking (and talking) about the Trump agenda and then — whammo! — right into the whole thing about how many votes he got in 2020. Super normal!

15. “I don’t know if you know, Sean, usually in a second term a president gets less votes. I got 12 million more. It’s the biggest that’s ever happened in history, from 63 to 75. Never happened before. And all of these things are good.”

I, just, uh, I have no idea what to say here. I will say that I, too, like good things.

16. “And I don’t know if Joe knows what’s going on with it, because I think you have a cabal, you have a group of people that are sitting around a table just saying do this, do this, do this. They’re giving him these things to sign. It’s hard to believe.”

OK, so there is a “cabal” of people just giving a clueless President Biden “things to sign?” That IS hard to believe!

17. “We were supposed to lose 25 seats. I got involved. I called 56 different districts. And we ended up picking up 16 instead of losing 25.”

Uh, it’s not that simple.

18. “Lisa Murkowski is a disaster. I mean, she’s a total disaster.”

… said the former REPUBLICAN President of the United States.

19. “And I was making calls getting congressmen elected.”

Tell me more about these magical calls …

20. “We’ve expanded the Republican Party.”

“Quarterly Gap in Party Affiliation Largest Since 2012” — Gallup, April 7, 2021

21. “But I’m at 128 and two when I endorse people, 128 and two.”

22. “You know, I cut taxes more than any president’s ever cut taxes.”

For the BILLIONTH time: He did not.

23. “We did a great job. We got very little credit for the great job we’ve done.”

Donald Trump on his handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. Yes, really.

24. “I’ll give you a little breaking news. Pfizer is in with the FDA. And what the FDA did with Johnson & Johnson is so stupid.”

[“BREAKING NEWS” banner] “Pfizer is in with the FDA.” And, no, I have no idea what he is talking about either.

Virginia GOP Censures Lawmaker For Officiating Same-Sex Wedding

Virginia GOP Censures Lawmaker For Officiating Same-Sex Wedding

Original Post: http://ishouldbelaughing.blogspot.com/2020/12/virginia-gop-censures-lawmaker-for.html

Denver Riggleman, a GOP State Representative in Virginia leaving office this year, has been unanimously censured by a House Committee for, ahem, betraying the party’s values.

He officiated a same-sex wedding for two male campaign aides he described as “friends” and that gets you smacked by the GOP … in 2020. A statement issued by the Appomattox County Republican Committee read, in part:

“In July 2019, Denver Riggleman officiated a same sex wedding which in turn goes against the values and principles of the Republican Party betraying and disregarding the concerns for the many Conservative and Christian voters in the 5th district who elected Denver Riggleman to the United States House of Representatives.”

Yes, he officiated at the ceremony nearly 17 months ago; man, the Virginia GOP holds a grudge, except there’s more that he did that is also terrible, for goose-stepping traitorous members of the ReTHUGlican party.

He condemned _____ for his refusal to accept the results of the 2020 election and was one of the first in his party to congratulate President-elect Joe Biden. And the GOP said, of that:

“We will hold accountable all Republican elected officials to stand by the Virginia Republican Creed and National Republican Platform, and to support all our Republican nominees.”

Even when they lose the popular vote.

Even when they lose the Electoral vote.

Even when they lose all of those recounts.

Even when they lose nearly 50 lawsuits in courts all around this country.

Even when they lose at the Supreme Court.

Riggleman was elected in 2018 but lost his re-election bid during a Republican state convention—after performing that same-sex wedding—over the summer, took to Twitter to respond:

“Glad the [Virginia GOP] finally admits they rig a convention because of the wedding. We already knew this, but here’s your sign.”

Shortly after he officiated that same-sex wedding, Riggleman shared his thoughts on same-sex marriage:

“My real belief is that government shouldn’t be involved in marriage at all, but if it is, everybody has to be treated equally before the law.”

Simply, nicely put; but let’s be clear, Riggleman isn’t the LGBTQ+ ally he appears to be; his stance on marriage is simple: everyone should be allowed to be married, but he voted against the Equality Act, a proposed bill that would have added sexual orientation and gender identity protections to existing civil rights law and voted against a resolution opposing _____’s ban of transgender people from serving in the military last year.

So, he doesn’t like The Gays, but he doesn’t have a problem with us getting married, and the GOP, not just in Virginia, has a problem with anything resembling acceptance of LGBTQ+ Americans.

So, I will thank Riggleman for his small step, and ask that he consider the fact that if we are allowed to be married, shouldn’t we also be treated equally under every law in this country? And should we, whether L, G, B, T, or +, be allowed to serve our country if we so choose?

Not so in Virginia, I’m afraid, because Riggleman’s replacement in state government is on ReTHUGlican Bob Good, a self-described “biblical conservative” who called the coronavirus outbreak a “phony pandemic” just this month.

Goddess help Virginians when their own representatives think 317,000+ Americans are the results of a phony pandemic.

There Are FOUR Lights, Douchebag!

By Don Hall

For those who love Star Trek: The Next Generation, the two episodes during the sixth season that puts Gul Madred (David Warner) and Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) in a battle of wills is notable.

"Chain of Command" has Madred use sensory deprivation, sensory bombardment, forced nakedness, stress positions, dehydration, starvation, physical pain, and cultural humiliation to try to gain knowledge of the Federation's plans for Minos Korva. Picard resists. Madred attempts another tactic to break Picard's will: he shows his captive four bright lights, and demands that Picard answer that there are five, inflicting intense pain on Picard if he does not agree.

Listening to Trump's recorded phone solicitation to the Georgia Secretary of State reminded me of those episodes.

TRUMP: The other thing, dead people. So dead people voted, and I think the number is close to 5,000 people. And they went to obituaries. They went to all sorts of methods to come up with an accurate number, and a minimum is close to about 5,000 voters.

RAFFENSPERGER: Well, Mr. President, the challenge that you have is the data you have is wrong. We talked to the congressmen, and they were surprised.

But they — I guess there was a person named Mr. Braynard that came to these meetings and presented data, and he said that there was dead people, I believe it was upward of 5,000. The actual number were two. Two. Two people that were dead that voted. And so that’s wrong. That was two.

TRUMP: So Brad, there can be no justification for that. And I, you know, I give everybody the benefit of the doubt. But that was — and Brad, why did they put the votes in three times? You know, they put ’em in three times.

RAFFENSEBERGER: Mr. President, they did not put that. We did an audit of that, and we proved conclusively that they were not scanned three times.

TRUMP: Do you think it’s possible that they shredded ballots in Fulton County? Because that’s what the rumor is. And also that Dominion took out machines. That Dominion is really moving fast to get rid of their, uh, machinery.

Do you know anything about that? Because that’s illegal.

GERMANY: This is Ryan Germany. No, Dominion has not moved any machinery out of Fulton County.

TRUMP: But have they moved the inner parts of the machines and replaced them with other parts?

GERMANY: No.

TRUMP: Are you sure, Ryan?

GERMANY: I’m sure. I’m sure, Mr. President.

Like Madred, Trump simply keeps repeating his completely unfounded conclusions as fact over and over. I wonder if Rattensperger at some point in the conversation started to believe that maybe there were five lights. I wonder how tempting it would be to cave in just to get the man to stop talking.

Trump, with the help of a slew of GOP operatives and legislators, has managed to convince 68 percent of Republicans that he actually won the race. No evidence of fraud. No proof of the allegation. Thrown out of court over fifty times. Simply repeat the lie over and over until people agree that there are five lights.

The results were seen yesterday as a couple thousand dipshits literally stormed the Capitol. I’d be alarmed rather than disgusted except that instead of the staunch seriousness of revolutionaries with a cause they stopped to pilfer items and take selfies in Nancy Pelosi’s office. These idiots, like the Antifa in Oregon, are merely bored, unemployed assholes who see the burning down of the government as a great way to spend a weekend. Given the photos, it looks more like Animal House than Les Miserables.

Through it all, Trump continued hammering home the Big Lies he’s been spewing forth since November 3rd and the red meat was just too enticing for several thousand wannabe revolutionaries to ignore. If they’d been black, they’d be dead but they were white and managed to storm the Capitol for the first time in over 200 years. Those Big Lies have power.

On a sidenote, did you really expect the police, after being castigated for nearly a year for being fascist, racists monsters, would really step up to stop these buffoons? Are you kidding? And be honest — you are either in favor of violent protest or you are not. I’m not in favor of violent protest without regard to ideological bent.

Expanding out, it seems that Trump is not the only one using this bizarre brainwashing technique to convince people of factless realities devoid of substance but filled with emotional heft. While Trump's version of this game is almost cartoonish (and I'm not one to lightly compare the man to Der Führer) the playbook was written over half a century ago:

All this was inspired by the principle—which is quite true within itself—that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods.

It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.

— Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, vol. I, ch. X

Like Picard, we are bound and subjected to this constant refrain of Big Lies and like Rattensperger we need to hold the line. There are four, not five, lights.

The presidential election was not stolen. There was no voter fraud. You cannot lose a substantial amount of weight in seven minutes a day. What holds you back in America is not your race or sex but your economic class. The customer is not always right. The scientific method is not biased. Merit is a better metric for success than identity. Equality is more important than equity.

THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!

Another sidetone. After watching yesterday’s ridiculous melodrama unfold, I decided to drink rye whiskey and beer and watch the arguments of the Senate to confirm Joe Biden’s electoral victory. And while there were a few I reacted with a simple “Oh. Go fuck yourself you partisan piece of shit.” I also found myself openly weeping at the words of so many of our elected legislators and their love for and belief in this country’s ideals.

God bless America, man. Four fucking lights.

Can we now impeach this motherfucker this week?

January 6, 2021

Over the past few days I’ve led my troop’s first scout meeting of the new year! We played a Kahoot about scouting, and I did pretty well. I got third, losing to Mr Schmidt and Mr Wilhelm. I also had football Tuesday, but I didn’t do too well. I was pretty out of it, probably because I’m tired from going to the gym at 5:00 the past few days. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. We also went and visited Gran Gran yesterday, because she’s not doing very well. She’s not able to walk anymore and she’s still very out of it the same way she has been for the past couple years. She was asleep the whole time I was there, so I spent most of my time there just talking to Grandma and Grandpa. We also saw Mamaw and Papaw for a second because we had to stop at Josh’s house to pick up my mom’s debit card from them. Today was probably the most eventful and chaotic, despite me not doing as much. I got to go to youth tonight, but it was almost canceled after I’d already gotten there because there were COVID rumors. Everything turned out to be okay and we had youth like usual, except Marshall’s gone now. Also, the Capitol building as stormed today in the middle of what I believe was the Senate voting on Joe Biden being president. The security was breached and the building was flooded with Trump Supporters, so that was interesting. Now Instagram is exploding with everybody reposting their political opinions which I absolutely hate, but I can kind of understand it this time.
