Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 12/14/2023 10:17:42 AM

With less than a year to go before Election Day, former president Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden in head-to-head matchups in all seven major swing states. A newly released Morning Consult poll shows Trump maintaining a strong lead over Biden in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia, and North Carolina. Trump’s lead over Biden in Georgia (6 points) and North Carolina (9 points) is outside the margin of error, while his lead in the other five states is within the margin of error and ranges anywhere from 2 to 4 points. The former president bested Biden by 5 points in all swing states combined, well outside the margin of error.

Mea culpa. When the 2024 campaign began I thought it should be a traditional one with GOP candidates making their case and competing for the nomination. I was irritated that Donald Trump refused to participate. I know now that I was wrong. Trump and his ardent supporters were right. He is the nominee. He has the overwhelming support of Republican voters. He also has the support of huge swathes of non Republican voters. He will be the nominee so the other candidates should drop out and support Trump. The focus from now to next November must be on ridding the country of Biden and any Democrat hack who may be selected to replace him.

I was reading a label of a can of Walmart brand pumpkin. The label said "made in China". Why are we buying produce from China. We have farmers in the US who can and do produce pumpkins. What is the government doing to us? We have many concerns. I am tired of supporting the economy of china. I want Trump back and want him to stop this non-sense of buying things from our enemies when they can be grown and produced here in the USA.

5% may be the polling margin for error, but 10% is the margin for manufactured or created ballots.

My difficulty with backing Trump is that he sounds like a powerful person, but he doesn't have real power behind him. The emperors of Rome were powerful because they had the Pretorian guard of loyal, loving warriors who would execute their orders without question. They could intimidate the Senate and any of the pretenders to the imperium. Trump believes that his power comes from the Art of the Deal when, in fact, it comes from the Art of War. If he had been a beloved general in the military or had unquestioned loyalty of the military and police, he would be powerful enough to make a difference. Because he is backed by the divided and powerless Republican egotists, he is an easy target for the left to destroy.

Amid the recent national reckoning on academia and college education, diversity, equity, and inclusion programs have been intensely scrutinized. Many people have finally realized these programs are leftist propaganda that offers no legitimate value to anything. Riding this wave of common sense, Gov. Kevin Stitt (R-OK) issued an executive order to stop funding DEI programs in the state’s agencies and public universities. As part of the order, the University of Oklahoma was required to halt funding of its DEI programs. It’s a move that upset Atlantic contributing writer Jemele Hill, a notorious race agitator and former ESPN host.

Maybe you’ve heard of O’Sullivan’s First Law? This was an idea introduced by John O’Sullivan back in 1989. All organizations that are not actually right-wing will over time become left-wing. I cite as supporting evidence the ACLU, the Ford Foundation, and the Episcopal Church. The reason is, of course, that people who staff such bodies tend to be the sort who don’t like private profit, business, making money, the current organization of society, and, by extension, the Western world. O’Sullivan’s Law was about the behavior of groups and organizations but I thought of it today when I read this article from the left-wing magazine/website In These Times.

Two Georgia election workers who were defamed by Rudy Giuliani were awarded $148 million in emotional and punitive damages by a Washington, D.C. jury on Friday after being vilified and accused of faking election results. Ruby Freeman and her daughter Wandrea Shaye Moss had asked for $24 million, each. They testified in court how their lives were upended and their reputations destroyed after Giuliani claimed they had engaged in election fraud to give President Joe Biden the edge in Georgia over former President Donald Trump during the 2020 election.

IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari announced Friday afternoon that Israeli troops had mistakenly killed three Israeli hostages after mistaking them for enemy combatants during an operation in the Gaza neighborhood of Shejaiya. “This is an area where the soldiers encountered many terrorists, including suicide bombers,” Hagari said, calling the deaths of the hostages a “tragic incident.” The spokesman named two of the three casualties as Yotam Haim of Kfar Aza, and Samar Talalka of Rahat, all of whom managed to flee captivity “or were abandoned by the terrorists who held them,” Hagari explained. The IDF official contextualized the military’s response by highlighting the level of resistance Israeli troops face from Hamas.

Elon Musk’s business prospects changed on May 18, 2022. On that day he Tweeted this: Of course, Musk had already dented his reputation with Democrats and created the conditions under which the Democrats would decide to destroy him earlier, especially when he made his bid to buy Twitter the previous month. By declaring war on the censorship complex Musk put a huge target on his back. As predicted, the dirty tricks campaign did indeed begin almost immediately. Federal agencies demonstrated a newfound…diligence…in their mission to regulate Musk’s companies.

A former FBI counterintelligence chief who played a pivotal role in launching the Trump-Russia probe was sentenced to just over four years in prison for assisting a sanctioned Russian oligarch after leaving his post in 2019. In August, Charles McGonigal, a 22-year veteran of the bureau’s field office in New York, was found guilty of a count of conspiracy for working with Oleg Deripaska, a Russian billionaire with close ties to President Vladimir Putin. During his stint with the bureau, McGonigal received classified information that Deripaska would be designated a Russian oligarch with close ties to the Kremlin, the indictment alleged.

Last week, there was drama over a letter allegedly from 40+ White House interns released to the media saying they were against the Israel-Hamas war and wanted the Biden administration to call for a ceasefire. There were no signatures on the letter, just a listing of departments the interns supposedly worked in. Since no one had the courage of their convictions to sign it, who even knows it if was real? But it's concerning that you would have people working in the White House undercutting the policy of the United States. How could you trust that things would be secure in such a chaotic environment?

Israel said Friday that the U.S. was “fully aligned on the mission to destroy Hamas,” despite reports that visiting White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan had pushed Israel to wrap up the most intense fighting in the next few weeks. The Biden administration’s preferred timeline happens to coincide with the start of the U.S. presidential election. The Iowa caucuses (for Republicans) will be held January 15; the first Democratic primary has been moved to South Carolina February 3. Israeli government spokesman Eylon Levy told reporters that “the only clock that matters is that every second Hamas exists,” the terror organization is “a ticking time bomb that we must defuse.”

Vice President Kamala Harris has been telling colleagues in the administration that she wants the White House to show more concern publicly for the humanitarian damage in Gaza, where Israel is locked in a bloody and prolonged battle with Hamas, according to three people familiar with Harris’ comments. President Joe Biden is among the officials Harris has urged to show more sensitivity to Palestinian civilians, these people said. In internal conversations about the war in Gaza, Harris has argued that it is time to start making “day after” plans for how to handle the wreckage of the war once the fighting ends, one senior administration official said.

Walt Disney is bracing for a bitter proxy battle as activist investor Nelson Peltz is seeking two board seats, his firm Trian Fund Management said Thursday, pressing ahead with his second board challenge this year. Trian, which owns roughly $3 billion worth of Disney shares, abandoned an earlier bid for one board seat in February when the media conglomerate outlined a sweeping restructuring plan that addressed his criticisms. The firm nominated Peltz and former Disney Chief Financial Officer James “Jay” Rasulo. “As Disney’s largest active shareholder, we can no longer sit idly by as the incumbent directors and their hand-picked replacements stand in the way of necessary change,” Trian said

Cotton had argued the country should call out the National Guard to put an end to Black Lives Matter riots which had broken out around the country. Bennet and his superiors had agreed in advance of publication that Cotton had a legitimate, albeit right-wing, view. But it wasn’t his alone.

Hunter Biden has told friends that he might have to flee the country if Donald Trump is reelected, after already enduring months of deeply personal political attacks and mounting legal woes. Republicans have put him front and center of their efforts to say his father acted corruptly when he was vice president. And he could face almost 20 years in prison if convicted of three felony and six misdemeanor charges brought last week. The result is an 81-year-old father desperately worried about the welfare of a son who has battled drink and drugs, and a son who fears more attacks if Trump wins in 2024.

In a directive Thursday, federal employees were told to rent EVS on official travel when costs are less or equal to comparable gas-powered vehicles and where charging is accessible. Additionally, federal workers were instructed to take rail for trips less than 250 miles when cost-effective and feasible rather than flying.

In an extreme move to address the climate “crisis” and the state’s infamous water droughts, California may be looking to utilize “toilet to tap” conversions. In a tentative vote reportedly planned for next week, the California State Water Resources Control Board may vote on a measure that would allow sewage water to be converted into purportedly safe drinking water. Under the proposed plan, wastewater that is currently treated and released into oceans and rivers, and used for field irrigation, may be “treated at a higher level” and then sent “back into the main water supply over the course of hours to days,” the Washington Examiner reported.

He is survived by a wife and child.

The Senate has pushed off its holiday recess to work on a border security and foreign aid package in what could be a breakthrough on immigration policy - that has not been dealt with by Congress in decades. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said the talks had made 'good progress' on Thursday on a package that would include money for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan and would bolster border security measures in exchange. One idea under consideration is to allow Homeland Security officials to stop migrants from applying for asylum at the southern border if the total number of crossings on a day exceeds 5,000.

A new government-funded study out of Britain, conducted by scientists at the U.K. Center for Ecology and Hydrology, purports to show that “human breathing is contributing to greenhouse gas emissions.” Therefore, the study authors are urging "caution in the assumption that emissions from humans are negligible." The peer-reviewed study published Wednesday in the Public Library of Science's journal PLOS One investigated greenhouse gas emissions of methane and nitrous oxide in human breath, which allegedly "contribute to global warming." Well, there it is! I knew it was coming! Are you serious about stopping global warming? Well, then, just stop breathing! What a boon to depopulationists!
