On Tuesday, the Kyle Rittenhouse prosecution rested its case after its witnesses once again strongly supported Kyle’s assertion that he only acted in self-defense. In a righteous world, the judge would, on his own initiative, order a directed verdict in Kyle’s favor. Instead, it emerged that there’s a plan to terrorize the jurors (and, by implication, the judge). Also the mainstream media, of course, pretended that the prosecution had actually proved its case. (snip) My concern is that the jurors will keep themselves safe by finding Kyle guilty and the judge will agree. They’ll all assuage their consciences

Over a weekend of discussing politics with like-minded family, we of course discussed Trump and the mean tweets.(snip) Prediction One: The Democrats won’t get the economy on an even keel by 2024. Democrats really need to crank up interest rates to curb inflation (snip) Just in time for the 2024 election. (snip) Prediction Two: The Democrats won’t curb their CRT wokey crazies before 2024, and the American people will be fit to be tied by then. (snip) Prediction Three: You ain’t seen nothing yet. I experience the current populist wave as just the latest in a succession of increasing political revolts CORRECTION*

Watching the shenanigans in the still contested New Jersey gubernatorial election, I have to wonder whether there has ever been a truly honest election in state history. From my own experience, I would say probably not and, as I also learned, there are a thousand ways to cheat.
In 1982, through an odd sequence of events, I found myself with a ringside seat on a routinely crooked Newark mayoral election. I had been offered a job as “associate director” of the 1,000-employee Newark Housing and Redevelopment Authority. This being a recession year, and I needing to finish my Ph.D. dissertation, I took it. This was not a career move.

People are beginning to realize that something is wrong with America's ruling class, and by "people," I don't mean people like you, who are actively engaged in politics. I'm talking about people who want nothing to do with politics or people living in prosperous leftist enclaves (snip) Tucker Carlson's also been thinking about the zeitgeist, and he's concluded that what's driving Joe Biden isn't dementia but is, instead, fear — raw, palpable fear. Biden is aware that he's failing, but rather than step away from the White House, he meekly does whatever his handlers tell him to do. That's where security lies.

Once upon a time President Joe Biden was against vaccine mandates. (snip) Yet here we are, with Big Brother issuing this new edict (snip) Their rationale is to protect workers from themselves, “Unvaccinated workers are much more likely to contract and transmit COVID-19 in the workplace than vaccinated workers.” Maybe, or maybe not.
According to CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky in August, “Vaccines no longer prevent you from spreading COVID.”
This leads to several questions, which the corporate media seems uninterested in exploring or asking.

Procter & Gamble (“P&G”) is one of America’s largest corporations, with over 100,000 employees worldwide. It is putting a vaccine mandate into place for its more than 26,000 America-based employees, which will require them to get vaccinated, meet a “company-approved” exemption, or take weekly COVID tests. Those employees opposed to the vaccine mandate are pushing back. To that end, they released a powerful video warning, not P&G, but all Americans, what will happen if these employees lose their jobs.
It’s unlikely that you’ve navigated through life without ever purchasing a product from P&G.

The Durham special counsel's bust of Brookings Instituttion research analyst Igor Danchenko for lying to the FBI five times about how he helped create the Steele dossier is bound to take bigger fish down, given that the investigation is hardly over.
Might that get as far as Joe Biden? Based on an intriguing book blurb dating from a 2013 anti-Putin book by co-authors Fiona Hill and Clifford Gaddy, it seems possible. (snip) Joe Biden, who's not exactly anyone's idea of a "scholar," served as the glowing book blurb to Hill's and Gaddy's 2012 book, based on an interview by Rolling Stone, which is not exactly a redoubt of Kremlinology fans

On August 25, 2020, 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, armed with an AR-15 and a medical kit, went to Kenosha, Wisconsin to offer first aid and protect businesses against looting and arson. (snip) The trial started this week, and it's been sufficiently fascinating, thanks to mismanaged evidence (including FBI wrongdoing) and an incompetent prosecutor, to merit a short review. (snip) the prosecution's insistent questioning regarding the circumstances of Rosenbaum's death revealed that Kyle was an amiable young man who avoided confrontations and was actively trying to help people; that Rosenbaum threatened to kill him

“FDA advisory panel OKs Pfizer vaccine for children 5 to 11,” announced a recent NBC News headline.
How could a panel that is supposedly composed of rational clear-headed scientists make such an inexplicable recommendation? (snip) Children under 12 years of age are nearly 1000 percent more likely to be killed in a vehicular mishap than to die of Covid-19. (snip) your child is nearly 200 percent more likely to be struck by lightning than to be felled by Covid. (snip) Not only there is no real benefit of doing so, but there are also considerable risks associated with this procedure.

Democrats haven’t grasped this yet, but it’s too late for them. The die is cast. An electoral bloodbath awaits next year, akin to or surpassing what happened to their party in 2010.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s and the Squad’s anti-American leftist politics drive their party, and that’s beginning to register at a gut-level with voters. What voters – critically, that big, pivotal segment known as independents – now feel is revulsion for Democrats in not just one way but many. The intensity of that revulsion is bound to grow in the coming months.

For many Americans, the Marines occupy an almost mythic place in their minds as an invincible force that runs to the guns and fights no matter what. That’s why it was so shocking to learn that, during a joint training exercise in the Mojave Desert, Britain’s Royal Marines inflicted such a shellacking on the Americans that the latter had to surrender halfway through the exercise. This is a direct result of the Pentagon having gone woke under Obama—something that Trump failed to undo—followed by Biden doubling down on Obama’s policies. (snip) Obama purged the officer class of old-timers and brought in progressive ideologues.

The primary reason the United States finds itself in its current predicament is the vast number of credulous and mis-educated Americans who, over the past two decades, have blindly pledged their undying allegiance to the current iteration of Democrat party. They do so because they have been willingly duped into believing that the political opposition, conservatives and Republicans, are the personification of evil who are hellbent on transforming the nation into a dystopian nightmare.
The philosophical underpinnings of the Democrat party or the falsehoods its elected members regurgitate are immaterial to their voters, as long as this dire threat, as personified by Donald Trump in 2020, is vanquished
