In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Whenever the possibility presents, throw sand into the machinery…

FTA “This latest indictment from Fulton County similarly amounts to charging Trump with mafia-style felonies for the crime of questioning the results of the 2020 election. And like the previous indictment, Georgia’s finest couldn’t help but add a special twist that would cause Orwell himself to drop dead from embarrassment. As with the previous indictment, the Georgia case charges Trump with a conspiracy. In conspiracy law, there are things called “overt acts” which may in themselves be innocent and legal but become illicit insofar as they are determined to further an illegal conspiracy. For instance, if a terrorist is charged with a conspiracy to blow up a building in New York, the terrorist in question purchasing a map of New York, or renting a van, could be considered “overt acts” in furtherance of the terrorist conspiracy, even though purchasing a map or renting a van independently are perfectly legal activities.
Ever eager to twist and contort the boundaries of the law, the flexibility inherent in conspiracy law is a perfect tool for malicious abuse on the part of corrupt and politically weaponized prosecutors. In the Fulton County case, the prosecutor attempts to criminalize First Amendment speech, including Trump’s tweets, by considering them as “overt acts” in furtherance of Trump’s alleged plan to overturn the Georgia election results. As a consequence, the Georgia indictment registers the following tweets as effectively illegal in the context of this ridiculous conspiracy charge.”
I kid you not! WTF! “Whereas the previous federal indictment against Trump came courtesy of the corrupt and politicized Jack Smith, the latest indictment owes to a certain Fani Willis. Behold, the legal genius of dubious literacy selected to be the latest instrument to criminalize any questioning of the 2020 election and neutralize Biden’s opposition for 2024.”
Weissman was charging President Trump with Obstruction of Justice for tweeting that he didn’t conspire with Russia to steal the election and that he was innocent.
Weissman was probably telling the Black Bimbo how to charge President Trump in Georgia!
Let me get this straight if an innocent man is maliciously charged by the DOJ’s corrupt Lawfare division and declares he’s innocent on social media he’s committing a second crime? Conversely our prisons are loaded with guilty criminals who proclaimed their innocence! Should we go back and charge them with another crime denial of guilt? Where in the law is that crime found? Just wondering?
According to the Bolsheviks at Lawfare like Weissman…Yes!

WEF-Linked Bioethicist Called For Genetically Modifying Humans To Induce Meat Intolerance
“We can use human engineering to make the case that we’re intolerant to certain kinds of meat, to certain kinds of bovine proteins” to fight climate change, he says.
By Jamie White | INFOWARS.COM Tuesday, June 22, 2021
https://www.newswars.com/wef-linked-bioethicist-called-for-genetically-modifying-humans-to-induce-meat-intolerance/
A bioethicist linked to the World Economic Forum’s Great Reset called for human beings to be genetically engineered to become smaller in size and meat-intolerant to fight “climate change”.
During a lecture at the 2016 World Science Festival, Dr. Matthew Liao, director of the College of Global Public Health’s Center for Bioethics at New York University, explained his vision of genetically modifying people in the name of saving the earth.
“People eat too much meat. And if they were to cut down on their consumption on meat, then it would actually really help the planet,” Liao said.
(screenshot of X post snipped; includes video that runs 1:04 minutes)
Liao discussed making humans intolerant to meat through chemical and hormonal interventions while also admitting that he loves meat too much to give it up.
“But people are not willing to give up meat. Some people will be willing to, but other people – they may be willing to but they have a weakness of will. They say ‘this steak is just too juicy, I can’t do that.’ I’m one of those by the way,” Liao admitted.
“So here’s a thought. So it turns out that we know a lot about — we have these intolerances,” Liao continued. “For example I have a milk intolerance. And some people are intolerant to crayfish. So possibly we can use human engineering to make the case that we’re intolerant to certain kinds of meat, to certain kinds of bovine proteins.”

I needed laugh today!
live now RSBN, (Father) Frank Pavone, Praying for America:
I posted this a few minutes ago on the Goldberg page. I intended it on the President’s Thread. My apologies in advance, so here it is anyway. (No I’m not really sorry; this is too important. IMHO)
You hear some people start a conversation with “I hate to say it, but …” I don’t think I know what that means.
So instead, I’ll start this comment with, I don’t hate to say it, but I will try not to be hate-ful.
Almost everyone on this site knows who and what the Republican Party is made of. And known for a long time. But we continue to think that if we get enough true conservatives elected, we can start to turn things around. Ask yourself this question: do you really believe it?
I have another question: if the date is August the 15th, and you go to your refrigerator to pour a nice cold glass of milk to go with the fresh hot apple pie your mom baked for you, and you reach into the refrigerator and saw two partial gallons of milk on the shelf.
One was dated August 2nd. The other was dated August 7th. Which one would you drink? Would you gladly take the milk dated August 7th to drink with your hot apple pie? After all, it’s just the lesser of two evils.
Does that make sense to anyone here? I think not. Then how can you talk yourself into voting for ……
Nevermind, I’m not going to waste the time to finish asking this question. I think I’d be more disturbed with most of the answers.
OK then! Do you really want change? Are you really ready to sacrifice everything, even your life, your fortune, and your sacred honor?
I think I’ve posted similar comments before to mixed reviews. I think it’s time to post it again.
It is just not that hard to establish a Third Party. Yes there are some hurdles and road blocks along the way, and they’ll throw all sorts of legal trouble at us to prevent us from doing it. But it can be done. It has been done. And I’m willing to tell you how. If you’re willing to learn.
I’m almost certain there are over a hundred people, if not a thousand on this site who have the experience of doing it. A hundred, or a thousand CAN do it. But how about Seventy-five million, hard working, determined, pissed off Patriots, who don’t just gripe and complain about those mean Rino’s who won’t appoint good candidates to public office… but are ready to get off their computers and get out in the streets of neighborhoods across this once Christian America, and do what it takes. Establish a political party where we make the rules and kick out those fakes and charlatans who want to disrupt our apple cart.
The ship of the Republican Party sailed away years ago. There’s no bringing it back. She sunk off the port side. (For you land lubbers, that means she tilted toward the left, and was never able to level off, until she sunk.)
As far as I know, the CTH is the best site in America. I don’t even know who is a close second. I’m just one crying in the wilderness. Without help, a lot of help, I just don’t know how to move this ball forward past this message.
Can someone, maybe ten someones, maybe even twenty, say yes, I have a farm, with a great big barn that would hold five hundred people? Someone will say, that’s a stupid idea. BLM will probably show up and disrupt it. Well too bad for BLM. They would be meeting people of their worst nightmare. Say there are twenty someone’s out there willing to host an event. In twenty locations across this great land? I think; no, I know, this would be the start of something big. Or I should say, Bigly!
Remember this: we already have our candidate; who is not welcome at the Rino Party last time I checked. By this time next year we’ll be calling all the shots. Tell me this is a stupid idea, and I’ll just go away quietly. If there aren’t many thousands on this site who haven’t had this same idea, then I’ve judged you’all wrongly. But if you think it’s a great idea, raise your hand and say “count me in.” Joe Dan has a Bar-B-Que every year for crying out loud. I’m sure he thinks this is a good idea. I may be just an old fool but I think we should be getting at it too.
Years ago, when I was a young fool… we used to play a card game called “Man or Mouse” (two card poker; I’m not recommending it). I’m asking you now; are you a man or are you a mouse? For the men out there (and the women; we can’t do it without the women; my wife won’t let me), there’s still plenty of time to do this. Do you really want to save America? Are you able, and are you willing to try? Can you say with me, “now’s the time?”
Sundance; you’re up!
try again tomorrow. Too many comments to read to get to this point and too late to reach many here. These old folks have already gone to bed except for me because I’m a late “nighter” and read until I finish. 😎
This subject has been discussed many times by many treepers. The response is always no…..too many speed bumps, red tape and other various excuses. President Trump has already taken over the Republican party and too late to change now even though the republican party doesn’t support him. Many of us have changed from republican to unaffiliated so I don’t know what the current attitude is. Try again tomorrow during daylight hours. Maybe you’ll get lucky?
Ukraine KIA Update-
Let’s look at the data points we have showing Ukrainian KIA in the 200-400,000 range.
– Population surveys
– Obituary counts on social media
– Cemetery construction
– Amputation disclosures
– Older, inadvertent official disclosures
– Endless conscription but no army growth
It’s all completely internally consistent, pointing to the same approximate number of casualties in the 2-400k range. This is exactly what you would expect if that was in fact the case – all these secondary indicators are consistent with each other and there is no countervailing data besides the obvious lies of Ukrainian officials.
Given that Mediazona’s count of Russian KIA in the 30,000 range has recently been validated by another inadvertent disclosure on their side (of some 8,500 WIA returned to duty, total, in the entire VDV for the entire SMO) this also points to an absolutely brutal fact: for every Russian soldier killed in this war, somewhere between seven and thirteen Ukrainian soldiers die. That’s apocalyptic for the Ukrainian Army and a disgrace for their Western advisors.

If schools implement biometric technology, how will students’ privacy stay protected?

https://www.rochesterfirst.com/news/education/if-schools-implement-biometric-technology-how-will-students-privacy-stay-protected/
ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Biometric technology is used in our daily lives. Facial recognition on our cell phones, waving your hand to pay at the grocery store. But how can this type of technology be used in schools?
And if it is, how will students’ personal information stay safe and secure?
In a report released by the New York State Office of Information Technology Services (ITS), the different types of biometric technology were laid out, including:
ITS says while these types of technologies can transmit a lot of data and information, schools should only collect and store a small amount of personal data in order to complete necessary educational tasks. Schools are also urged to delete any stored personal data once the assignment is completed.
According to the report, the Lockport Central School District has utilized closed circuit cameras to take biometric measurements of all faces that are in the frames of the cameras.

To test accuracy, schools have the ability to request audits of the face recognition systems’ false positive rates — and can break it down by race, gender, and age.

California Is Testing Controversial Digital ID, Starting With Driver’s Licenses
Major privacy and civil liberties questions are still unanswered.
Issue: August 4, 2023
https://reclaimthenet.org/california-is-testing-controversial-digital-id
The DMV – the Department of Motor Vehicles – in the US state of California is now testing introducing “mobile” driving licenses (MDL) for its residents.
The pilot is at this time extended to about 2,000 drivers, and their job is to “actively use it and provide feedback.”
What’s happening here is that the California DMV has launched a mobile app, currently in a testing phase, and the main features are the drivers’ having the ability to upload not only their license to it, but also their ID.
It looks like a short and forceful “blitzkrieg” here, because the local DMV is telling media in California that more drivers will be included soon – they’re talking weeks – and then comes “a broader public rollout.”
The “mobile” license is marketed as living in a driver’s DMV Wallet smartphone app. And, of course – there couldn’t possibly be any downside to all this.
A PR person for DMV has said so, after all – “(it’s) as an easy, secure, and convenient companion identification to your physical card.”
The push to move people from physical means of identifying themselves, that are in reality not perfectly secure. But still, much more secure than having their personal data pooled in a centralized database, such as “the war on cash,” (general) digital IDs, and now this – is fairly obvious.
These things are happening in concert and clearly with broad policy decisions behind them.
Enter stage right – the TSA (US Transportation Security Administration). To the surprise of absolutely no observer, even the casual ones, this agency is involved in this, and is working closely on advancing the scheme with DMV’s around the US.
At this time, Arizona, Colorado, Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, Hawaii, Ohio, Utah, and Maryland are the states that have the digital (“mobile”) driver’s license implemented.

JUST IN: A federal appeals court has ruled that Washington, D.C. ‘selectively enforced’ their laws depending on who was breaking them.
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: America operates under a Selective Justice System.
City authorities in Washington D.C. treated pro-life protesters much more harshly than they treated Black Lives Matter protesters according to the court.
“In the summer of 2020, thousands of protesters flooded the streets of the District to proclaim ‘Black Lives Matter,'” the court explained. “Over several weeks, the protesters covered streets, sidewalks, and storefronts with paint and chalk. The markings were ubiquitous and in open violation of the District’s defacement ordinance, yet none of the protesters were arrested.”

Presidential Immunity From Prosecution-
Former President Donald Trump cannot be found guilty of the charges against him because he was not first impeached.
45th President Donald Trump cannot be convicted of many of the charges against him, particularly those related to his claims about the 2020 election, because he was not first impeached by Congress and convicted in the Senate in his position as President of the United States.
Recent court decisions to assert that the Supreme Court’s recent Dobbs and Bruen decisions allow for Trump and his lawyers to argue that all actions a president takes while in office must be considered legal unless the chief executive is successfully impeached.
According to NCLU, the legal theory essentially posits, “Could George Washington have been prosecuted if he took similar actions and if the relevant statutes existed while he was President?” The non-profit social welfare organization answers, “If the answer is ‘no,’ then it is equally improper to prosecute Mr. Trump under these indictments, given that Bruen and Dobbs mandate that all constitutional provisions be applied in accordance with their fixed meaning in 1787-1789.”
NCLU Executive Director Gavin Wax told Valiant News the failed attempt to impeach Trump after he left office in 2021 would strengthen the legal theory. “His acquittals only strengthen this case,” said Wax, adding that the legal theory was “articulated in a vacuum.”
Wax posted the legal theory to X, formerly Twitter, including a link to the 17-page legal memorandum. Wax also called it “the best legal strategy” for Trump, and suggested it will “set precedent to prevent this nonsense from happening again in the future.”
In addition to the new federal charges recently introduced by special counsel Jack Smith, the former president was also charged by a Democratic prosecutor in Georgia with claims that he engaged in racketeering and other crimes when contesting the results of the 2020 election.
Trump continues to poll first for the Republican nomination, and more than half of Republicans in the key primary state of New Hampshire said they would vote for the former president even if he were convicted on some or all of the charges against him. Many also said they would support Trump’s presidential bid if he were in prison.
