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…

Not so fast, Okdrealist. “Sanctions are the strategy of the weak.” And they can very easily and permanently backfire in the case of “The West.™”
Basically, “The West™” consists only of the United States and its cadre of appointed vassals, who still obediently march to every beat of its drum … even when those drumbeasts are contrary to their citizens’ own interests. The USA might have been able to do this when it was “the manufacturer for the world,” but that was a long time ago. Today, this country has “out-sourced” its own soul.
But … Russia didn’t. Their energy resources are vast, as is their territory and their still-preserved manufacturing capability. Therefore, this is anything but “a country on its last legs, about to be defeated by New York bankers and their computers.” Instead, it is a nation that is quite capable of demonstrating to “more than 2/3 of the population of our planet” that there is another way … and of then leading them to achieve it.
The fatal mistake of the United States is very-simply hubris. They adopted this position when they were irrefutably “strong,” but they did not then remain “strong.” Today, the USA cannot even manufacture its own shoes, socks, and underwear. It is quickly running out of various forms of ammunition, and is waiting for the Chinese ships to hurry up and bring more … innocently presuming that they will actually do so.
“Pay no attention to the little man behind the curtain!”
“Very simply, Putin is astute, and he is right.” This is not – this cannot afford to be – “a uni-polar world.” We will never have sustainable peace until several economic engines are healthily running at the same time, checking the inevitable ambitious and cravenness of their respective leaders. There must always be more than one way to trade. Russia sees this and has the sovereign power to be the initiator.
It also still knows what the word, “sovereign,” means, and why this word is so vitally important.
Nations necessarily must cooperate as members of a grand human community, but in doing so they must also remain sovereign. And be willing and able to periodically [peacefully …] remind the other nations of that fact. Because, if we are ever to achieve “world peace,” it must begin here.
Indeed, “the [failure of the …] ‘uni-polar’ experiment” proves this.
“There are all kinds of devices invented for the protection and preservation of countries: defensive barriers, forts, trenches, and the like… But prudent minds have as a natural gift one safeguard which is the common possession of all, and this applies especially to the dealings of democracies. What is this safeguard? Skepticism. This you must preserve. This you must retain. If you can keep this, you need fear no harm.”

Georgia SOS Brad Raffensperger Secretly Hired Salesforce.com to Manage Voter Rolls on the Cloud – Lawmakers Must Speak Out and Resist This Dangerous Move!
By Jim Hoft
Published February 23, 2022, at 8:00am
In a no-bid contract, Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger announced the outsourcing of Georgia’s Voter Registration System to Salesforce.com. The implementation is to be managed by the MTX Group. The new system is called the Georgia Registered Voter Information System (GRVIS).
It sits on Salesforce servers which happen to be cloud services provided by AWS (Amazon/Bezos). Salesforce is a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) vendor that provides online software as a subscription service (SaaS). It allows companies to manage and track their customers, sales leads, and customer support tickets. The users of this service range from car dealerships to clothing manufacturers.
Salesforce has helped only Democrat operatives like Democracy Works to track and register voters, then claim its “non-partisan”. MTX Group has not been in any election-type business. Both groups are now responsible for replacing ElectioNet, Georgia’s current voter registration system.
The election integrity group VoterGA provided a press release on this bizarre partnership. In their live press conference last week, VoterGA, its co-founder Garland Favorito, and its volunteer investigators provided stunning details on Salesforce, CEO Marc Benioff, and MTX. This was a no-bid contract, with no requests for proposals, and no selection criteria.
Benioff is a known liberal activist and opponent of conservatism and Republicans. He is on the Board of Trustees for the WEF (World Economic Forum) founded by Klaus Schwab, which has an agenda provided by George Soros. Salesforce.com is also involved with the “New Georgia Project” and its founder Stacy Abrams.
According to SOS Raffensperger: “County and local elections officials around the state have already been introduced to the new system and will be trained on it in the coming weeks and months”. The public image alone should prevent any rational SOS from partnering with Benioff or Salesforce. Among their numerous political statements, Salesforce and Benioff publicly disparaged Georgia’s new election integrity laws SB202 and HB301.
Knowing all this, Raffensperger still partnered with them. Garland Favorito of VoterGA said: “This makes no technical sense, and it makes no business sense. So then you have to start asking, what sense does it make. The only thing I can think that’s left is that the Georgia Secretary of State has been compromised…..It’s time for the Governor and Attorney General to step up. It’s time for the legislature to ban this”.
According to VoterGA: MTX is a four-year-old India-based company, with no election experience. Their employee list shows one and only one employee in Georgia. After obtaining a no-bid contract in Texas to develop a contract tracing system, workers were found to have used their own personal computers and Email addresses on the project. That raised privacy concerns about data security and the project was criticized by a legislator for having “one fumble after another.”
Also disclosed during the press conference was a 2020 class-action lawsuit by Salesforce customers. Malware had infected Salesforce.com and allowed a breach of their users’ customer data, including credit card information. When Salesforce discovered the was scraped from their system, they did not notify any customers. The data was later found for sale on the dark web.
During the VoterGA press conference, one individual stated: “I’ve read countless studies on cloud computing, either the Amazon platform or countless others, that it’s extraordinarily easy to hack. Anyone with a Sys Admin password or login can get into anybody else’s data that is on the shared server. Is this a ploy by the GA Secretary of State to allow easy access to manipulate voter files? “
Georgia election employees will never know exactly where the voter registration data resides. Salesforce.com might disclose to certain GA officials a city, possibly someplace in California. But every piece of information must be accessed online. Georgia election officials will not be able to walk up to the voter registration server and make a physical inspection, replace a hard drive, and so on. Only those employed by AWS will have this type of access. These AWS people will most certainly not be residents of Georgia, or employees of the Georgia elections department.

Ukrainian plane crash reveals US deals of US-sanctioned Serbian arms dealer

The Serbian arms company Valir DOO, which exported weapons on the ill-fated Meridian Air Cargo flight on Saturday, is at the center of new shocking revelations. The Ukrainian cargo plane crashed in northern Greece, killing all eight crew members on board.
While Tesic has been under US sanctions meaning that he cannot deal with any company in the US, Valir DOO has exported 249 tons of Serbian weapons to the US in 2021 and 2022, according to US Imports data and public records. In 2020 alone the company declared 15.4 million USD annual revenue just a year since its incorporation.

Google’s Earth: how the tech giant is helping the state spy on us

We knew that being connected had a price – our data. But we didn’t care. Then it turned out that Google’s main clients included the military and intelligence agencies. By Yasha Levine
by Yasha Levine
Not long after Brin and Page incorporated Google, they began to see their mission in bigger terms. They weren’t just building a search engine or a targeted advertising business. They were organizing the world’s information to make it accessible and useful for everyone. It was a vision that also encompassed the Pentagon.
Even as Google grew to dominate the consumer internet, a second side of the company emerged, one that rarely got much notice: Google the government contractor. As it turns out, the same platforms and services that Google deploys to monitor people’s lives and grab their data could be put to use running huge swaths of the US government, including the military, spy agencies, police departments and schools. The key to this transformation was a small startup now known as Google Earth.
In 2003, a San Francisco company called Keyhole Incorporated was on the ropes. With a name recalling the CIA’s secret 1960s “Keyhole” spy satellite.
The purchase of Keyhole was a milestone for Google, marking the moment the company stopped being a purely consumer-facing internet company and began integrating with the US government. When Google bought Keyhole, it also acquired an In-Q-Tel executive named Rob Painter, who came with deep connections to the world of intelligence and military contracting, including US Special Operations, the CIA and major defence firms, among them Raytheon, Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin. At Google, Painter was planted in a new dedicated sales and lobbying division called Google Federal, located in Reston, Virginia, a short drive from the CIA’s headquarters in Langley. His job was to help Google grab a slice of the lucrative military-intelligence contracting market. Or, as Painter described in contractor-bureaucratese, “evangelising and implementing Google Enterprise solutions for a host of users across the intelligence and defence communities”.

Well, moving from ERIC to Salesforce or should I have said U.S. Government. I wonder why?
In order to have the mail-in ballot, you need a Voter Registration Database that can be controlled. Now Electronic Registration Information Center(ERIC) to Salesforce
The Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) is a non-profit organization with the sole mission of assisting states to improve the accuracy of America’s voter rolls and increase access to voter registration for all eligible citizens. ERIC is governed and managed by states who choose to join, and was formed in 2012 with assistance from The Pew Charitable Trusts.
View the ERIC Bylaws and Membership Agreement
The seven states that pioneered the formation of ERIC in 2012 are: Colorado, Delaware, Maryland, Nevada, Utah, Virginia, and Washington.

I am a website, try me. And, of course, I am connected to Otero County only.

Here is the daily registration pattern for Otero County along with the approximate dates that the state joined the voter registration system ERIC, gave the Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) write-access to our rolls, and our Secretary of State (SOS) gave Rock the Vote enhanced access to bypass her website when registering voters. You can see that there is a dramatic increase in the amount of manipulation starting in 2018. There are also no times when voters aren’t being registered, even though until 2020 we had a state statute that required the rolls to be shut down during elections:

Crooked Raffensperger Certified the Stolen 2020 Election, Now He’s Unilaterally Hired Salesforce, Headed by WEF Board Trustee, to Run GA’s Voter Rolls Going Forward

Georgia’s corrupt Secretary of State who was involved in the theft of the 2020 Election is now working on stealing all future elections in the state.
The people in Georgia voted for President Trump in the millions. Unfortunately, the RINO Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, did all he could to help steal the 2020 election, finally squeezing out a 10,000 vote margin for Joe Biden, after days of manufacturing votes after Election Day.
Now Raffensperger is working on stealing the 2022 election from Georgia and all future elections.
How ignorant or corrupt is the Republican Party in Georgia to allow this to happen? VoterGA’s Garland Favorito shared this:

They let Raffensperger win the primary.
The end of the farce of not only voter control of post-election policy, but of the voter control of the vote itself.

However, Bret Stephens is probably required reading at the RNC and for the GOP professional class in DC. In which case, any apology no matter how insincere is unneeded and indeed a detraction.
Unfortunately, among the “vote straight GOP” crowd, it may still excite some hope that conservative voters will just go back to reading their RNC donation letters and stop being so deplorable.

Twitter 2nd quarter loss of $270M.
Hopefully, a prelude of worse to come. By now, Musk has made it impossible to ignore to any company actually spending advertising dollars on Twitter that they aren’t reaching nearly as many customers as they thought. As Nielson ratings drive advertising dollars on TV, REAL Twitter accounts determine true advertising value.
Nielson ratings consistently show the declining size and profitability of TV shows. Hollywood would love to corrupt those numbers but that directly impacts costs to any company that buys advertising time and they have prevented such action. Now Twitter faces the same problem.

Well, it seems utterly inconcievable to me that “real advertisers” – having been for so many decades utterly reliant upon independent services such as Neilson – absolutely abdicated their capability for skepticism. Such that they accepted every single thing that “social media” said about itself, without a second thought. They simply and blindly signed-off on hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of advertising invoices, without ever wondering why.
“What Fools these Mortals Be!” – Puck, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”
Likewise, you simply accepted that you had “thousands or even millions of ‘followers,'” each of them hanging on your every word?
“If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.”
Now, are there any plaintiffs or public prosecutors out there who are ready to pursue Federal cases of: “fraud on the market?”
I think it’s true that amy company still advertising with twitter should be examined for buying political favor via narrative manipulation.

Pelosi Buys Millions in Call Options in Google, Disney, Salesforce , Roblox Days After Insisting Members of Congress Should be Allowed to Trade Stocks
By Cristina Laila
Published December 30, 2021, at 2:42pm
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her hubby Paul bought millions in call options in Google, Disney, Salesforce, Roblox and Micron just days after the Democrat lawmaker insisted members of Congress should be allowed to trade stocks.
A new Business Insider report revealed 49 members of Congress failed to correctly report their stock trades which is required under the STOCK Act.
Lawmakers from both sides of the aisle failed to disclose stock trades.
A couple of weeks ago, citing Business Insider, a reporter asked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi if members of Congress should be banned from trading stocks.
“Should members of congress and their spouses be banned from trading individual stocks while serving in Congress?” a reporter asked Pelosi.
Pelosi defended the herself and other lawmakers.
“No…We are a free market economy. We are a free-market economy and they should be able to participate in that,” Pelosi said.
A few days later, Pelosi extended her stock-buying spree.
The New York Post reported:
Congress is in recess for the holidays — but Nancy Pelosi has kept busy playing the market.
The Democratic majority leader and her husband, Paul Pelosi, recently bought millions of dollars worth of call options for stocks including Google, Salesforce, Roblox and Disney, financial disclosures published Thursday show.
The purchases occurred from Dec. 17 to Dec. 21 — just days after Pelosi insisted in a press conference that members of Congress should be allowed to trade individual stocks despite often being privy to insider information that can move markets.
The Pelosi family’s trades this month include Google and Salesforce call options worth between $500,000 and $1 million each, as well as Roblox call options valued at between $100,000 and $250,000. The duo also bought up between $250,000 and $500,000 in calls for chipmaker Micron Technology and between $100,000 and $250,000 of Disney call options.
Paul Pelosi runs Financial Leasing Services, a real estate and venture capital investment and consulting firm. In recent years he’s made big-money bets on companies his wife is supposed to regulate, including Amazon, Apple and Google.

I’ve wondered if congress exempting itself from all laws violates the equal protection clause in the 14th amendment.
But I think that says all people within a jurisdiction shall be treated equally by the law. So they just claim to be under thier own separate jurisdiction. Apparently the only jurisdiction they are under is their own and they aren’t part of the United States.

A series of uncoordinated mass stabbings, hammer attacks, and cleaver attacks in the People’s Republic of China began in March 2010. The spate of attacks left at least 90 dead and some 473 injured. As most cases had no known motive, analysts have blamed mental health problems caused by rapid social change for the rise in these kinds of mass murder and murder-suicide incidents.
As the Chenpeng school attack was followed by the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in the United States hours later comparisons were drawn between the two.
MY UNIPARTY NIGHTMARE
I have urged conservatives to get active in county level GOP work.
The idea is that MAGA Nation elects precinct and county leaders to gain control of county level GOP organizations. That leads to taking over state GOP, then the Republican National Committee.
That’s the best, probably only, way MAGA Nation can gets its own political party.
But a nightmare came to me.
It’s entirely possible that, in the near future, the Republican and Democrat parties will merge into a single political party. This would ensure that there was almost zero chance of any outsiders every getting elected against this Unity Party monster.
They already colluded in election fraud to keep Trump out of the White House. They already collude in back room deals to divide up the Federal budget. They already are masters of the Kabuki theatre of fake opposition parties that swap who is in “control” every now and then.
An actual Uniparty would relieve the wealthy elites of ever again having to worry about an outsider spoiling their traditional looting of our economy and their pillaging of American values.
Interesting. I’ve always thought that the best case scenario would be for the RINOs and Dems to unite in a single Party.
And then the MAGAs have their own Party.
I think we’d win- if the Voting Sys. was cleaned up.
Most states make it difficult for third parties to qualify to be on the ballot.
A combined Uniparty would no doubt make it even harder.
If that Uniparty still held primaries, MAGA nation probably lacks the numbers to win.
My guess is that party leaders would set candidate qualifications to exclude anyone who doesn’t play by their rules.
Trump has really scared the establishments, and they will do whatever it takes to ensure it never happens again.

So do prosecutors….
The pair of radical lawyers who torched an empty NYPD vehicle amid protests in Brooklyn over the police killing of George Floyd pleaded guilty Thursday to conspiracy charges in a deal struck with federal prosecutors.
The firebug attorneys, Colinford Mattis and Urooj Rahman, each copped to counts of conspiracy to commit arson and to make and possess an unregistered destructive device for firebombing the police van in Brooklyn on May 30, 2020, a spokesperson for the US Attorney’s Office said.
They had previously pleaded guilty to possessing a destructive device – but successfully fought prosecutors’ effort to give them a lengthy sentence under a “terrorism enhancement.”
Under the plea deal cemented Thursday, prosecutors will not seek the enhancement, and will request for a maximum sentence of two years in prison.
