Democrat Party Platform

Feel free to copy this Democratic Party Platform and share it as widely and broadly as you can in any and all of your areas of influence.
If the Biden-Harris team gets into power, America as we have long known and cherished her will cease to exist. Vote as if your life depended on it, because it does.
Holy wall of text!
As far as the low income housing , I know they mean it to be minority
but the town I used to live in got around by making the majority
of thier low income housing for Senior Citizens…it was low income
so it met the requirement.
Here’s some more light reading. I can’t wait for volume 2 !

Wonder how many times he uses the word “I” in that masterpiece?
Think that is the title “I”
Why do the dems put something forth that is NOT inclusive of ALL Americans?
Any person with a modicum of sanity will see that this is impossible to even implement. It also turns this nation into a communist regime…
Of course, that’s the point. Just who do you think the Dem Party is? A den of communist iniquity and a front for China and for all the oligarchs and terrorist-world leaders who want to rule the world. Just my opinion, of course!
Ok Fiesty, let’s put the ACTUAL democratic party platform link for folks to see. Your opinionated version is probably a good layman’s take on what they hold dear, but in the interest of factual information, here is the official version, as of August, 2020:

Much thanks Cole.
Guys, please help me – is there a version of this video on YT ? Plan to send it to a Dem friend. (-: Thank you!!
Here you go cornfielddreamer:
I see a pattern…HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Thank you James! Treepers are the best.
cornfielddreamer,
Plus 1000, You are so right Treepers are the BEST ??????
With a diverse community, which is willing to SHARE knowledge, insights, information and comedic relief ?? Which we all (I) appreciate very much.
This is going to be a new hot meme on twitter and everywhere like that woman screaming at the sky.
Yup. Perfect example of libtardation.
She is quite the little charmer. I hope she’s not somebody’s mom…
She is quite the little charmer. I hope she’s not somebody’s mom…
This is terribly disrespectful. Good grief the woman hasn’t even been buried yet.
So many lowlifes on social media. Disgusting, vulgar, dark, empty headed people.
Sad commentary as to where we have fallen to as a society.
nwtex,
Self righteous one ?
Fifty million aborted (butchered) babies were never given the dignity of a proper burial. They were (are) thrown into red bio-hazard bags and incinerated.
Or sold, piece by piece.
Well, nwtex, I prayed daily for Ruth Bader Ginsberg to be removed from the supreme court…I didn’t ask for her death…just her removal…and that God’s will be done…who am I to not be grateful that my prayers were answered?
Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!
The best laid plans of mice and men – Hillary becoming President, RGB retiring and the first woman President getting to nominate another leftist woman Judge as her replacement just wasn’t God’s plan! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
If that isn’t a spoof, she’s too unhinged to be driving. But why does she appear to be driving from the passenger side?
Lives in alternate universe.
Do you notice it’s a right hand drive car? Either she isn’t driving or she is likely not in this country.
Mirror mode. It’s in the USA. Video is shot in mirror mode. It’s used so if you see yourself as you are shooting, you don’t get distracted by the movements that are opposite of what you are doing.
True that.
Since this old buzzard is in the thick of corrupt Dem politics, let’s try every legal means to get him out of our country…

But could we just export every communist

As much as I despise the Turtle on many things, he is steadfast on SCOTUS and some other judicial openings (needs to move faster).
This is my observation as well. It is his legacy.
Pastor Darrell Scott:
Trump will take 25% of the Black Vote
Only 25%?
Obviously there is still much work to be done in de-programming and educating our black citizens in the U.S.
Sounds like something a third-rate third world sh@thole country.
this is a Michigan court of claims ruling… and its mule fritters:
“The Court of Claims is a court of statewide, limited jurisdiction (PA 164 of 2013) to hear and determine all civil actions filed against the State of Michigan and its agencies. These cases include highway defect, medical malpractice, contracts, constitutional claims, prisoner litigation, tax-related suits, and other claims for money damages.”
sorry about your luck; black lib wayne county judge.. this was ruled upon. thanks for wasting docket time, you hack.

“Citing potential postal delays, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson urged voters to return their ballots in person to the clerk’s office or local drop boxes to ensure that they are counted.”

Spot on video. This is what ArmstrongEconomics has been exposing for a long time. I will keep this video to use as needed to forward where needed. Michael Matt is a good narrator.
Question for D*mb F*ck Prince Charles:
Q: what does COVID and future pandemics have to do with the Climate Change?
A: Abso-dam-n-lutely NOTHING! It’s all about control. Period.
Charles has a lot of personal investment in green technologies and wants bigger returns. His kids are in on it, too.
Charles also advocates carbon tax to be levied by the govt. Said so in his UN speech this year. Love how all these elites want to mandate to the plebes how they are gonna live and they are gonna LIKE it.
Mark Steyn nails it again…Watch the video from link
Biden has experience ‘in not actually accomplishing anything’
17/09/2020|12min
The thing about Joe Biden is he has been in Washington for nearly half a century however “he doesn’t actually accomplish anything” according to author and commentator Mark Steyn. “His experience consists of experience in not actually accomplishing anything,” Mr Steyn told Sky News host Chris Kenny. Mr Steyn discussed the Democrat’s stance on President Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem being Israel’s capital. He said while Mr Biden “might have theoretically, ideologically” been in favour of Jerusalem being the capital of Israel, “would he have done anything about it? No”. “What he says today bears no relation to anything from the last 47 years”.
Woman of color for Supreme Court?
Barbara Lagoa. Cuban, Florida, passed easily (80-15) to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals a few months ago, highly intelligent & well-connected.
Represented Elian Gonzalez, unsucessfully blocking his removal to Cuba from the United States by Janet Reno.
_____
https://vettingroom.org/2019/11/15/justice-barbara-lagoa/
Barbara Lagoa, a Justice on the Florida Supreme Court, would be Trump’s first nonwhite nominee to the Eleventh Circuit, and would flip the court to being evenly divided between the genders, a rare case of gender progress on the bench in the last few years.
_____
Background
Barbara Lagoa was born in Miami in 1967. After getting a B.A. with honors from Florida International University, Lagoa joined Columbia University Law School, graduating in 1992. After graduating, Lagoa worked in private practice in Miami, moving between the firms of Morgan Lewis & Brockius LLP, Schulte Blum McMahon Joblove & Haft, Cohen Berke Bernstein Brodie & Kondell, P.A., and Greenberg Traurig.
In 2003, Lagoa became a federal prosecutor with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida. In 2006, Gov. Jeb Bush appointed her to the Third Circuit Court of Appeal in Florida. In 2019, she was elevated by Gov. Ron DeSantis to the Florida Supreme Court.
_____
Overall Assessment
With extensive experience as an appellate judge and as a Supreme Court justice, Lagoa is certainly well-qualified for an appellate seat. While she may draw questions about her conservative jurisprudence, it is likely to be expected that this Administration will put out conservative candidates. As such, Lagoa would likely be confirmed fairly comfortably.
Is she on his lists that he said is going to choose from? I didn’t read all of the names he has presented. She sounds like a good choice.
Battled Janet Reno in 2000.
Nominated by Governor Ron DeSantis in 2019 for Florida Supreme Court.
Nominated by President Donald J Trump in 2020 for 11th District Court of Appeals.
There is a reason she made Trump’s new list.
Politically, Democrats would truly destroy themselves trying to tear her apart. The Hispanics would never understand/accept the opposition and they are a very big voting block the Democrats have mismanaged time and again, mainly because most Hispanics care for family & God and are proud people. That does not compute with Democrats.
Yes,l she is included on President Trump’s new list of potential Supreme Court nominees on September 9th.
_____
https://www.scotusblog.com/2020/09/trump-releases-new-list-of-potential-supreme-court-nominees/
Here is the full list of the president’s additions to his group of potential nominees:
Bridget Bade (U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit)
Daniel Cameron (Kentucky attorney general)
Paul Clement (former solicitor general of the United States)
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.)
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.)
Stuart Kyle Duncan (U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit)
Steven Engel (Office of Legal Counsel, DOJ)
Noel Francisco (former solicitor general of the United States)
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.)
James Ho (U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit)
Greg Katsas (U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit)
Barbara Lagoa (U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit)
Christopher Landau (U.S. ambassador to Mexico)
Carlos Muñiz (Supreme Court of Florida)
Martha Pacold (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois)
Peter Phipps (U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit)

Allison Jones Rushing (U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit)
Kate Todd (deputy White House counsel)
Lawrence VanDyke (U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit)
Coming from Columbia U., and appointed by the likes
of Jeb Bush… I am pretty sure she is not a conservative.
So…… NO NO NO!!
Time to stop the silly notion thar gender….and /or skin
color has anything to do with QUALIFICATIONS!
Exactly. I fear anyone who is not KNOWN to be a rabid constitutionalist. So I am for Ted Cruz.
Have you read the articles here on how Cruz is part of the corruption in the SSCI committee?
No, sighhhh. I can’t keep up. Well, I still don’t think he would vote against the Constitution if her were on SCOTUS. That is his passion/calling card/life’s work. Plus then he would be eliminated from Senate and POTUS ambitions forever. Maybe with the carrot/stick of the Senate circus put aside he could just focus on area he excels in. Certainly if he was nominated and declined everyone would know exactly how Black Hat he is.
I have read all about Cruz;) It does take some research. Many refuse to do that.
Ted has already publicly stated he won’t accept.
Obviously (to me) he knows that he loses his ability to cash in on a SCOTUS job, unlike the highly lucrative position he holds as Senator….
#Followthemoney
Mama, so what is “rabid constitutionalist” about this Ted Cruz quote? I thought that We the People had the Right to Freedom of Assembly? The Right for political candidates to meet with voters (ie, rallies)? Ted Cruz aka “rabid constitutionalist” (yeah, right) said that it is the fault of candidate Donald J Trump that his rally attendees were being harassed and assaulted. It was DJT’s fault because of his tone. Ted did not defend YOUR right to Freedom of Assembly and his right to have political events with voters.
HOW EASILY WOULD TED THROW OUT YOUR RIGHTS FOR POLITICAL GAIN? I do not want him any where near the Supreme Court.
“Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said he’s “troubled” by Donald Trump’s campaign rallies and said his Republican rival is at fault for the ensuing chaos at the events.
Cruz said Trump is responsible for setting the tone of his rallies, which have been plagued by a string of violence by protesters. “The protestors are behaving abusively and wrong. But, at the end of the day in any campaign, responsibility starts at the top,” Cruz said during a Saturday appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press.
“I’m troubled by the rallies that Donald holds, where he asks all the people there to raise their hand and pledge their support to him,” Cruz added.”
I don’t know the woman. But not all Ivy Leaguers are flaming anti-conservatives.
True, many are, but I am one of those who aren’t. There are literally thousands who aren’t, but probably the most famous of them all is Justice Scalia who graduated from Harvard Law School.
Nuff said.
She’s Cubana……she is as white as I am….. probably doesn’t even tan well. She would not think of herself as a POC.
Yesterday, I saw a lot of derisive comments about Puerto Rican’s…… regarding the FEMA grants….The Puerto Rican people aren’t the corrupt ones… It’s the governor and politicians.
I think growing up in Florida, as I did, you come in to contact with so many people of different ethnicities. I can tell a Somalian from a Nigerian, I can tell a Cuban from a Guatemalan,, I can tell the difference between the two types of Mexicans, those of European background and those who are mestizos, if you don’t know what I mean, you don’t know many Mexicans, I know the difference between Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese and Thai surnames….. all from people who came to this country and happened to live in Florida. I’m 53….they started teaching Spanish in fourth grade in public school…in northern, rural Florida.
Let’s try to include others, don’t generalize those groups you may not actually be familiar with…. some may be coming here to learn! All Americans, somehow, someway, had to come from immigrants…
She would be number one on my list of contenders.. An excellent choice, based on everything I have read.
How about a true conservative white woman? There’s never been one on the Court! Please don’t tell me Sandra Day O’Connor!
Sandra Day O’Connor was as close as we’ve ever gotten to a conservative white woman Justice. Why your objection?
I don’t believe she was a conservative just a moderate. She was the swing vote in affirming affirmative action, Roe vs Wade, McCain Feingold, ruled the 10 Commandments in Court Houses was Unconstitutional for a start. But that’s just how I look at her. She was close but no cigar! IMHO. I hope the new Justice remains steadfast to her conservative beliefs of the Constitution. To often so called “conservative Judges” go wobbly after getting on the Supreme Court and eventually become a big disappointment for conservatives. Good grief there are enough liberal Judges in our Judicial system, very few real steadfast conservative Judges!
Thats why I wrote “as close as…”
Well I hope and pray we get closer this time!
Lagos: Florida Int’l U. (“international” means “”international”); Columbia Law School (home of the Frankfurt School and “critical legal/race theory”) + Jeb Bush’s support certainly does not suggest she is conservative. Her Cuban heritage (in my experience) does not “automaticamente” make her conservative. This Supreme Court requires a strong advocate for the U.S. Constitution as written. Others have more proven records than she.

14 days? That is ridiculous. Talk about time to make up fraudulent votes to suit their purpose. They probably are sitting on thousands of mail in ballots already post marked by Nov. 2.
There should be no votes allowed to be counted after midnight on Election Day. No ‘found’ votes after the fact, period. With early voting days there is no excuse for not getting all votes in and counted by Election Day. It’s a farce that all these chances to vote are for the people who just cannot make it to the polls. Plain old Democrat B.S. just like their whining about voter ID. They couldn’t care less about the people who supposedly have problems with either thing.
Our elections and right to a fair vote have become the laugh stock of the world. Banana republic indeed.
Exactly
They’re also allowing vote harvesting, no ID or credentials check of the person delivering the harvested ballots, Sec of State has issued an order that signatures NOT be compared to signatures on the voter rolls, just all sorts of sketchy, sketchy, steal tactics
Couple articles

https://www.breitbart.com/2020-election/2020/09/18/michigan-allows-ballot-harvesting-for-more-than-four-days/
It’s a shame that these rogue judges play politics with something that impacts federal elections. Supposedly the SCOTUS wouldn’t touch these decisions since the states have so much control over their election process. Something’s wrong. Who can stop it? Presumably the state legislature could vote to establish law correcting this mess. If so that needs to happen immediately (wherever it’s feasible…not sure if Michigan has enough R’s to pull it off, same with Pennsylvania).
Although Michigan is majority Republican in both houses, the law would need to be signed by Gretchen the Terrible – think she’s doing that?
I believe you are wrong. Mark Levin has already done part of a radio show on this. No executive signature needed. All power rests with the legislature
Is it true the ballot return envelope is a pre-printed bulk-mail stamp so does not get postmarked?
Nice Rasmussen broke out the numbers somewhat. Black approval way up at 34%
Non white way up at 60%
Which includes Latinos
Gonna take a whole lotta massive cheatin to beat PDJT. I just hope his coattails are long.

That’s why DemoCommunists are pushing mail-in balloting. They realized that they cannot cheat in large enough numbers with illegal alien voting, one person-multiple location voting, bussed-in voting, mysteriously appearing harvested ballots on Election Day, etc. They need the extra days beyond November 3rd to generate the millions of fraudulent votes necessary to overcome Trumps legitimately earned margins.
I am becoming seriously angrier every day I don’t see a coordinated national Republican hard pushback against this blatant crime being committed right before our very eyes.

Don’t let the propaganda from CNN, MSNBC and the network news fool you. They’re scared big time over Donald Trump’s growing and sustained support among Americans of color.
Is it just me or are those numbers CRAZY GOOD?? Like YUUUGE!
Unprecedented good. The polls saying otherwise are pure lies, manufactured . The problem is independents are notoriously unreliable voters. Indies are going to have to actually go to the trouble to vote, maybe stand in line for hours. That’s the question.
Just had an earthquake in Cali. Probably at least a 6.0. God telling Pelosi that she will never be President. Thank you Ruth.
They are saying 4.6 but I think it was higher.
Only 20 miles from me so that is Why it felt bigger.
South El Monti 4.6 earthquake. I felt it about 34 miles away. No aftershocks.
Governor Newsom will probably blame this latest earthquake on climate change just like he blamed it for the devastating fires out here!

15 miles from me. I thought it was a President Trumpquake!
The earthquake must have been caused by the has been Alyssa Milano’s screaming, stomping her feet while pulling out her hair on the death of Ginsburg. Remember, she offered her kidneys before, didn’t she?
Nah. It was Willie and Kamala going at it in a rendezvous.
It woke me up last night…
I never feel the earthquakes. Lol. Everyone in the SoCal valley says the felt it.
FISA Court Confirms The Government Lied In Every Spy Warrant Application Against Carter Page
https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/17/fisa-court-confirms-the-government-lied-in-every-spy-warrant-application-against-carter-page/?fbclid=IwAR281tREL05K4erzDXCKainfID9hrekXTRr2c6tvKU1PsbIutkkt5sh034Y
Excerpt:
A newly declassified ruling from a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court in June demonstrates that the government lied about its legal basis for spying on former Trump campaign official Carter Page.
The ruling states that the information produced by the FBI’s unlawful investigation into Page was illegally obtained and that it “found violations of the government’s duty of candor in all four applications.” The ruling also orders the government that “it must temporarily retain, and potentially use and disclose, the information collected, largely in the context of ongoing or anticipated litigation.
Why isn’t the FISA court recommending criminal charges to the DOJ?

Democrats would stab their own grandmother in the back if it helped gain control of the purse strings. After all, that is all they are interested in.
I am trusting Trumps acumen to ensure that he gets hi SCOTUS nominee.
And on another note, this is a wildly apt time for Don Jr to consider his run for office.
It’s a pity that Trump waited so long but I’m sure he’s going to nail much of his agenda.

I wonder if the ME peace deal will cause a lot of Jewish Americans to vote for Trump. They usually vote democRAT. On the other hand, they don’t seem to really care about Israel.
IMHO Joe Lieberman has almost always been a decent common sense patriotic man despite being a Democrat. He represents the old and now-obsolete JFK Democrats.

Amen!

Not sure why Housley decided to make this point an hour ago?
More….cont….
He continues to be generically vague in all his statements on this topic.
We already know “it” is both big and bad. No news there.
Indictments? He doesn’t propose whether it’s going to be some “big fish”, or just one, or a few, low-level “sacrifices.
Scandal is bigger than we imagine? Guess it depends on who his audience is. I doubt that CTH regulars don’t already KNOW it’s very big (imagining unnecessary). It’s pretty much been laid out in front of our eyes; but for a lack of solid corrective action. Maybe his audience is those that are less clued-in.
I imagine this stringing-along may be a healthy way to generate clicks.
reminds me of certain “alphabet-guy” predictions from coupla years ago
“Something big wil hit Tuesday”
“Something really big”
“Boom”
“Boom Boom Boom”
He reminds me of Dora in Finding Nemo.
Just keeps singing his “We’re Swimming, swimming swimming”, song and never saying anything more.
I like Adam, but he does spread a lot of Hope porn.
At some point, if you are going to shout “Wolf!”, the wolf needs to show up or your just another card carrying member of the Stay Tuned Brigade.
Is Adam Housley Q? Asking for a friend!
A nation can not survive if future generations are taught the nation is racist and evil. It will be destroyed from within.
Trump realizes this and is taking the first steps to right this situation.
The 1776 Commission will teach the real history of America, both good and bad. Children will learn of American heroes and events that shaped the country as the most exceptional and free nation in the world.
Of course this pisses off the communists like Susan Rice. Trump is over the target as usual.
Rice commented on the 1776 Commission saying, ” is the most communist, retro, crazy thing I’ve heard out of Donald Trump’s mouth in a while.”
How they project.
God Bless America!

When I was in 3rd grade nearly 50 years ago I had a teacher that every morning started class with a 30 minute Flag Ceremony. It was truly uplifting and still influences me to this day.
Nice to hear. I had a history teacher in HS who taught me lessons that I pass on to my children today. This is the impact of a great teacher. He was a weird guy and a lot of kids made fun of him (frankly, to my chagrin, including myself TBH) but his lessons were honest and thought-provoking. For instance, he was the man that single-handedly taught me to question the cult of ANY great figure in history … in this case, Abraham Lincoln. We studied the actual words and actions of Lincoln, a great politician, and man, but still only really both of these; and a man hell-bent on “preserving the union” as the PRIME question of civil war and not simply the wise old grandfather character we are sold all through primary school. Even then. Keep in mind, this was not some “War between the states” southern apologist, I went to high school in a tony suburb of Cleveland, OH. The person that reveals to you the actual complexity of humanity and its relationship to power, in particular, is an important person in any man’s life.
Always enjoy not just your great artwork, but your outstanding contributions to the CTH forum as well, Ben. Thanks so much!

Too messy to directly link to a long series of Tweets, so all you need to know is that it is NOT my work …. but very well constructed
argument:
REGARDING THE BS BIDEN RULE: (summarized)
1. Obama nominated Garland just months before an election and insisted the Repub held Senate confirm him despite the timing.
2. Senate Democrats (in fact ALL Democrats) used every tactic at their disposal in an effort to get Garland confirmed.
3. What do you think would have been the outcome IF the Dems were in control of the Senate back then? Yeah, the same thing Mitch wants to do now.
“Elections have Consequences.” (not my words)
“Payback’s a bitch.”
Knowing that the Postal Workers Union has endorsed Biden, I gotta ask: How easy is it to backdate a postmark?
The recent addition of Daniel Cameron (Kentucky attorney general) to President Trump’s supreme court list is quite interesting? ?
Why ?
Timing, being from Kentucky, being black, being so young.
From August 7th 2020
“History Is on the Side of Republicans Filling a Supreme Court Vacancy in 2020”
“History supports Republicans filling the seat. Doing so would not be in any way inconsistent with Senate Republicans’ holding open the seat vacated by Justice Antonin Scalia in 2016. The reason is simple, and was explained by Mitch McConnell at the time. Historically, throughout American history, when their party controls the Senate, presidents get to fill Supreme Court vacancies at any time — even in a presidential election year, even in a lame-duck session after the election, even after defeat.”

Police:2 dead, 14 wounded at party in Rochester, New York
43 minutes ago
Gunfire at a backyard party killed two people and wounded 14 others early Saturday in Rochester, New York, a city that has been roiled in recent weeks by outrage over the suffocation death of Daniel Prude.
“I’m begging everyone to remain calm and exercise deep restraint as RPD investigates what happened here and seeks those responsible,” she said.

President Trump Retweet
Thune can step to hell. He is just another fraud among frauds on the republican side of the fence.
Thune…what a cl*wn…she “loved this country” why she did not liked US CONSTITUTION- and not recommend for new -SOUTH AFRICA- stooooooooopid rino….30 MILLION aborted babies on her COURT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“True patriot”???
She thought our U.S. Constitution was too old (obsolete) to be used as a model for any other country. Fact.
Thune has his thoroughly corrupted head firmly implanted up his graft-fattened azz.
That’s it! ….I’m all misty eyed now….off for prayer then ?
God bless this man greatly and the gal who didn’t have enough money to pay for the diapers.
Dear Lord so many need you…..
NWTex,
Ms. Scharf is right. Acts of kindness like this–LOTS OF THEM–happen every day in this country and get absolutely no coverage whatsoever. Americans are good and patient people and they are generous to a fault. It is only when they finally have had enough of their kindness being abused and taken for granted that they decide it is time to stop being used by grifting criminals.
2020 is going to be a blow out for PT. He is much further ahead than 2016 and his momentum is building like a tsunami.
PT will not allow this election to be stolen in anyway.
I believe him when he says, “I will never let you down”.
And exactly why we need another conservative on the court before the election.
Dear Treepers, I just want to give you guys a little reminder. If you are new here, or you have forgotten the guidelines for commenting, please re-read them. For over a month we’ve had a lot of work to do here, a lot of new people, a lot of shenanigans from WordPress that caused extra work.
When I am checking pending comments that got hung up because they are new, or because they have a word on the blacklist, I’m judging pretty harshly, especially for people who don’t have much of a history here.
If you type all in caps I won’t even read it. If you insult or belittle another commenter it is getting trashed, and if I see you have a history of such behavior I’ll put you in moderation. If you have links with no description I’m going to trash it. A comment with many, many links, same. A long, long comment, especially if it is only one paragraph. if you curse I’m trashing it, and it should go without saying, if you make threats you’re getting trashed. If you spam us with many of the same irrelevant comments, I’ll trash them all.
When we first started this blog, and for a number of years, we were known for the civil discourse we had, which elevated conversations to actually going somewhere. To an extent, we’ve lost control of that because the blog has gotten too big.
If you comment here, you are a contributor to who and what we are. Please think about that and strive to make that contribution a worthy one, whether in debate, humor, discussions, or challenge.
Thanks Treepers.
An addition, just from moderating after this comment. I’m not approving wild conspiracy theories without substance or merit.
Thanks Menagerie.
“Love one another as I have loved you”. The greatest commandment.
A gentle reminder; That’s the 2nd Greatest Commandment (Love your neighbor as yourself, which “is similar to it”). The First and Greatest Commandment is “to Love ADONAI your God with all of your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. Matthew 22:36-40; Deuteronomy 6:5; Leviticus 19:18.
Thank you for keeping it on the rails
Thank you, Menagerie…
“because the blog has gotten too big”…and “ay there’s the rub”, sigh. Y’know, it was kinda neat back in the day when it was just a small group of readers and posters…I’d list the ones I miss, but I might get “moderated” :o)
That being said, it was this blog that got me thru the last campaign for POTUS. From SD’s first endorsement of the Donald in the summer of 2015 thru the posting of voter registration statistics by some diligent contributors, I was able to remain somewhat optimistic of our chances as the maelstrom raged around us. I was even able to smile when my siblings in NJ spoke confidently of President Hillary – they used to wonder why I was not more despondent and I told them to “wait and see”.
I’m happy for SD, ADREM, Menagerie and the rest about the success and notoriety of their blog, but I’m somewhat wistful – I’m reminded of that band that we liked when no one else had ever heard of them and how it was different when everyone got on their wagon, so to speak. I think Yogi said it best when he talked about a certain restaurant: “no one goes there anymore, it’s too crowded”
MAGA onward y’ll…and I’ll see ya on the Mall in January!
“MAGA onward y’ll…and I’ll see ya on the Mall in January!”
Indeed! LOVE that positive attitude. I believe it will be the largest crowd in inaugural history.
Thank you! If anything needs to be said, it is this. Also, I don’t read comments that have many emojis….they are hard to read and are out of control.
No! Ballots must be at the Board of Elections on, or before, Election Day. That is why it’s called Election Day, not Election Month!
It would appear, the big reason for the election of 2016 once again is showing up in our lives. Thank you Lord. Without equivocation the president should make a replacement pick for RBG, win lose or draw. Ask yourself “what would Hillary/democrats do?”
Look for the dummycrats to Paul Wellstone RBG’s death. The mother of all overreaches.They are going to sanctify this woman as if she were omnipotent deity sent to earth to save mankind from well, “man” kind. In reality, she was confused whether or not a boy is a boy or a girl is a girl or a baby is a baby. She can find law from some ethereal source, Marx , that allows our Constitution and Bill of Rights to happily be burnt on the alter of Marxist globalism to enrich “the right people”.
She and her ilk, dedicated swamp rats, are responsible for shredding our legacy to our children and grandchildren to leave a better life, country and future for the generations to come. This was achieved by American Exceptionalism something RBG and all leftist see as arrogant. We see it as things like the Moon Shot, but I digress.
Do yourself a “big” favor, stay away from the MSM. They will be eulogizing this woman night and day…YAK! Clean your garage again, take up yodeling, anything but listening their threats and fantastical tripe 24/7.
Do your job President Trump, make your pick and we’ll back you up sir. Anybody who has a wobbly swamp rat, put the pressure on. As far as the democrats are concerned, screw’em, we have a country to save.
Something that a democrat wouldn’t do and on a pure human level, RIP RBG and prayers to her family. As a free American, time to clean up her mess.
Your post are always clear and spot on Stan.
Don’t Forget…WE elected President Trump to do what is HARD because he took an oath…AND we support him!!!!

History Is on the Side of Republicans Filling a Supreme Court Vacancy in 2020
https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/08/history-is-on-the-side-of-republicans-filling-a-supreme-court-vacancy-in-2020/
Hmmmm, a possible nasty Soros tactic. Rural US house seat. Usually Republican and relatively “cheap”. Soros type folks fund a Republican nominee. Then for general election, the “Republican” convieniently drops out…….
Where did this happen?
Didn’t happen that I know of. Just thinking outside the box like one of them. Think of all possibilities. They only have to do it once to get a California style majority and then pass all three awful laws they want. Remember, Obama got Senate by the Republican dropping out. I recall the Rep had an issue, but was he a RINO who got the nomination by under handed reasons?
it did happen in reverse here in GA just last week. The Dem candidate dropped out for US Rep. To late to be replaced.
Yes, I’m in Georgia and did read about that in North Georgia. Got me thinking about things. I’m also sure 2018 was not the first time dims thought or tried ballot harvesting. I’m sure they had been practicing for 2-3 cycles. Wouldn’t be surprised if they tried/perfected first in dim primaries. Players agree to the tactic for invisible practice to perfect.
We have a presidential candidate that cannot read off of a sheet of paper and is unable to understand the difference between commas for thousands and millions.

Donald and Mitch are going to “git her done”.
It is the right thing to do for our great country and our citizens are owed a fully functioning and operational Supreme Court. No excuses.
Want to see splotty heads go boom.
Mitch should out of respect for the late great RBG adjourn the senate for 2 months.
Mitch you respect full dawg you.
Then President Trump make a Recess Apointment of the hard no frills ideolog possible.
Out of shock Mitch brings the Senate back to take up Presidents Trumps nominee.
The Supreme Court is not an executive branch position that can be filled by a recess appointment. It is the third branch of government.
No, there have been 10 SCOTUS recess appointments.
Problem is they expire within 2 years if not officially confirmed.
It is true that one of the Justices regarded as a giant on the Court’s history, William J. Brennan, Jr., actually began his lengthy career with just such a short-term appointment.
