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.

Sundance thread (DeSantis)
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1558158571510136833.html
Nice of Sundance to say…..it’s kinda not DeSanis fault because he has few $$$$ options…..I don’t agree…..He shouldn’t be running against Trump to begin with…..shows he IS hust a politician looking out for his own ambitions. He could have waited and when Trump was done he would have had all the funding he needed.
DeSantis has NOT said he’s running for Prez.
My gawd. They throw his name out there on all the Polls for no reason.
Get a grip.
It’s not for no reason. This multi-state rally tour he’s going on is pre-campaign publicity for him. Charlie Kirk (TPUSA) calls him “America’s Governor”. A DeSantis PAC is already running 2024 presidential campaign ads.
DeSantis is most certainly running for President, the only question is which year.
I know.
What I am pointing out is that , for the past couple days, many people here are acting as tho DeSantis has thrown his hat into the ring for 2024.
He has NOT.
And, IMO, it’s a *good* thing that he’s going to AZ. to support the only other GOP Gov who *could* turn out to a good one for the people of AZ.
If he was going to GA. to rally for Kemp, that would be an entirely different matter.
I don’t think it’s a good thing he’s going to AZ. I see this as the official start of the big split. DeSantis inherited a lot of Trump supporters (and Trump supporter donations), but now while Trump and his family are traumatized by the raid DeSantis is doing a rally tour with TPUSA who is already promoting DeSantis as the best Presidential candidate.
As I see it, the left supports DeSantis because they believe he is easier to defeat than our real president, Trump. I don’t think DeSantis will run if Trump decides to. DeSantis is young. There is no hurry for his candidacy. Going against Trump would hurt him and be a fool’s errand. This is all just wishful thinking on the part of the Commies.
I don’t think DeSantis will run if Trump decides to
I pray he doesn’t. Because if he does run then it will tell me that he’s an ass.
Projection. The media does it all the time. By media, I mean commies.
100% agree. See my comment just above.
WTF cares who TPUSA is “supporting for Prez”?
Again, DeSantis has not declared and he’s still on for the next FL. Gov. race.
TPUSA has grown and they’re working with a lot of money now.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/desantis-hit-campaign-trail-rally-support-trump-endorsed-candidates-unite-win
DeSantis will travel to New Mexico, Arizona, Pennsylvania and Ohio this month in support of GOP candidates, including Ohio Republican candidate for Senate JD Vance, Pennsylvania’s GOP gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano, Arizona Republican candidate for Senate Blake Masters and GOP nominee for governor Kari Lake.
Turning Point Action is hosting, and organizing the rallies with DeSantis in an effort to “unite” the Republican Party.
I didn’t think we needed uniting. And I don’t think Kirk’s intention is to unite, I think he is deliberately dividing, aka splitting.
Kirk said he believes Lake “will be the Ron DeSantis of the West
It would be better if she were the Trump of Arizona.
Q: Has DeSantis to date appeared at any 45 ralies?
A: No
Q: Why then would DeSan start campaigning for AF candidates endorsed by 45 if he hasn’t appeared at 45’s rallies where those candidates are appeared with 45’s endorsement?
A: It isn’t about endorsing 45’s endorsed AF candidates. It’s about DeSan kicking off his own presidential run and riding the red wave as his kick start up
Q: DeSant said he wouldn’t run against 45, then why is he kick starting his own presidential run?
A: Because GOPe powers that be have convinced DeSant that 45 will be indicted, convicted, not running under any circumstance, and to distance himself from 45…they will fund him
Q: If DeSan is running for reelection as govenor of Florida, why is he campaigning in Az?
A: Because he running for president.
Lok at what Charlie Kirk said:
“Gov. DeSantis is America’s governor and one of the most popular leaders in America,” Charlie Kirk, founder and president of Turning Point Action, told Fox News. “He has become the model for a new conservative movement that is willing to stand on principle and to actually fight on behalf of the values of his voters.”
DeSantis is the model for a new conservative movement??? We already have a new conservative movement and it’s called MAGA.
I’m going to watch their first rally. If they don’t mention Trump or don’t use the term MAGA, it will be very telling. And off-putting.
Exactly. They are splitting off from 45. DeSantos is making his own pathway.
Any idea how Turning Point Action is different than Turning Point USA?
I hope to see you summary of the first rally. Not sure I’ll watch it. Maybe Sd will review it.
Turning Point Action is also run by Charlie Kirk. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning_Point_Action He has really grown his enterprise from small beans in 2012 to big money now, and I’m sure he’s hoping for more by partnering with DeSantis.
I also find it interesting that DeSantis’ press secretary has quit that job and is now running his campaign. Presumably for his Florida Governor re-election but who knows.
I’m getting a bad taste!
Charlie Kirk has been an unabashed supporter of President Trump since day one. And I have not heard anything to suggest that he would not support him in 2024. Is there anything wrong with supporting both men…the President and the Governor?
Sundance maybe entirely correct, but I choose to wait and see how this plays out.
They weren’t be anything wrong with supporting 45 and DeSantos for president and governor. Problem is, DeSantis is running for gov in FL not AZ, PA and OH.
this reminds me of everyone making excuses for Ted Cruz,
Jeff Sessions, Mike Pence, etc.
We was duped and are in the process of being duped again
DeSantis’ donors are running him. Therein lies the problem.
Yep.
Agree. I think he’s been convinced 45 won’t be running.
He said he wouldn’t run against 45. If 45 is prevented from running….Afterall, the after the RAID, it was announced he was going to campaing with some AF candidates. They seemed strange to me (pre-RAID), not so strange post-raid.
The Florida Primary is Aug. 23.
We are a closed Primary State.
DeSantis is running unopposed in the Repub category- against (for now) 4 Democrats.
Noem is definitely gotten herself ready for the limelight. Botox and boobs
And that awful creature attended Joe’s inauguration and was all smiles
SD pegged her as a maga-light a few years ago and going to be trouble down the road (my paraphrasing). Once again, he’s right.
I find it very disturbing but it makes sense in some world. Not my world… not the one I want to live in anyway. In my world, it doesn’t take “a lot of money” to get elected. It takes convincing the people you want to do good things. It’s naive I know.
How does a good man like DeSantis not continue to build on his success and continue resisting the club? Why is the GOPe plan “better” for DeSantis?
The club will find unending ways to destroy him if he doesn’t comply. They tried to destroy Trump and have consistently failed. They held Trump back in countless ways but they couldn’t end him. That’s the example to follow.
I’m waiting to hear from DeSantis… what’s he going to talk about next?
I don’t assume a Harvard and Yale graduate who served in Congress and became a governor is a “good” man. You can’t be an ethical well-adjusted human and pursue politics as your life’s work. And you can’t make it to a Governor’s mansion in an important state like FL without being compromised.
With the club comes $$$$$$.
Per law.com, “DeSantis reported a net worth of $318,987 as of Dec. 31 [2021]”. Per Business Insider, “He doesn’t trade stocks, still has $21,284.92 in student loans, and doesn’t own property.”
(He’s 43 and was a Congressman for 6 years, right? Why does he still have unpaid student loans???)
I like your world. I believe DeSantis has made a catastrophic error in judgment for his political path, if SD is accurate, and I believe his has assessed the situation accurately. He has been convince there’s no future in politics for 45 so he is taking the GOPe $$$ route. They sell their souls. I never thought DeSantis would do this, but money is something most people can’t resist when they don’t have to earn it for themselves, like 45 did.
IMO, 45 will go down in history, in hindsight down the road, as a phenomenal person on many levels. All the awards they deny him are not suitable for him. He is way beyond those mere secular awards.
Once he signed that law making it illegal for businesses to boycott israel I knew exactly who he is beholden to and it’s not the American people that’s for sure.
Bill… your constant obsession with any and all things related to Jewish is getting old. Stop it. This site is too classy. Your personal Jew hate is not wanted.
I’ll happily sit home and not vote if It’s Noem/DeSantis or DeSantis/Noem. There’s no point in voting for bought and paid for globalists and swamp puppets. I say let the Democrat wing keep the WH – there’s no difference except how fast the collapse and tyranny comes.
See Bush and Patriot Act, and Bush I with the NWO, or Reagan with amnesty, or Nixon ending this gold standard and creating the EPA
And don’t forget war, war, war to fatten all their bank accounts
Well, much as I might have liked to hope Ron would be The Guy (likely as VP in 2024 and then P for 2028/32), I reluctantly have to admit that Sundance is likely right (as usual).
And he WOULD be the perfect guy to fool the much of uninformed MAGA crew, because of his stand up performance during Covid (which was very admirable, whatever the future might bring) as well as for his other actions in the past few years.
SIGH….
On these matters, Sundance’s track record is flawless. From his summary it is clear that de Santis’ life is no longer his own.
We can rationalize but it will not change. No one leaves the family.

Seattle Hospital at over-capacity.
vid at link:
https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/harborview-medical-center-over-130-capacity-no-longer-admitting-non-emergency-patients/RWCWJBD52BHALDH2QFDRDWGNCQ/?utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&ICID=ref_fark
Article is rediculous on so many levels. The hospital administrator “spokesperson” gives as examples patients experiencing abdominal pain or appendicitis as “non-emegency patients” they are turning away.
Abdominal pain generally and appendicitis “attack” specifically are cases you DO NOT ‘turn away’ as “non-emergency”.
Sure, abdominal pain COULD be just “indigestion”, but could also be an emergency, and requires evaluation to detirmine which. As for appendicitis, its a sign of impending rupture of the appendix, leading to sepsis and death, so definetly not a case to turn away as non-emergency, sheesh!
Beyond that, he does not discuss how many hospital staff were fired for refusing the jab, nor the dramatic increase in admisions and deaths from all causes, since the jab was rolled out, and the effect this may be having on “taxing the healthcare system beyond its limits.”
Of.Course. the article/vid is ridiculous!
They have to somehow come up w/ BS to cover up the actual cause.
That said, I have a lot of respect for the nurse at the end of the vid who says , basically, that she is thinking of quitting because of the poor quality of care she feels she’s giving patients since the over-load. Basically, it’s breaking her heart seeing what’s going on up close and personal.
Hyperbole at work. At hospital is a business. Full capacity is great business. Every empty bed is a money loser.
It’s OVER capacity.
The Waiting Room has been turned into a “patients Room”. etc.
Is any of this increase due to vax injuries?
Just wonderin’….
Of course it is.
Lived in Seattle a looong time.
Never heard of such a thing before this.
And WA. was one of the most aggregious States when it came to Covid/Vax Mandates. And the City of Seattle was probably one of the worst in the State.
Something different for you: some remarks on how Leftist rot has infiltrated the Arts in America, in this particular case…musical theater.
The Most Happy Fella is a musical by Frank Loesser, famous for Guys and Dolls.
The Most Happy Fella is a musical with a foot and three toes in the world of opera, in that its musical construction, demands on the orchestra and singers, and its dramatic reach all go beyond the usual toe-tapping tunes typical musicals, even good ones.
Recently, it was given at a concert in Massachusetts at a venue famous for summer opera/musical productions. This was a concert performance (i.e. no sets, no acting, just singing the songs with an orchestra) with “nine non-binary, female-identifying artists.”
Yes, women would be singing the male parts!
Conrad Osborne, a famous opera/Classical Music critic (in his late 80’s or early 90’s) sat through this performance: he has been fighting against Leftist-Communist agitprop being used to replace the plots of famous and not so famous operas and even cantatas. Classic works like Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, are having their texts replaced by…
…rap doggerel!
“On April 7, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, led by Marin Alsop, will take textual intervention one step further. A poem by Baltimore-based rapper Wordsmith will replace Friedrich Schiller’s “Ode to Joy” in a performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. Wordsmith has explained his goals in the rewriting: to use “present-day social issues to highlight the need for positive reinforcement. Encouraging gender equality, cultural acceptance, and living a purpose-driven life are worldly topics I sought to shine a light on during the writing process.”
The result is a radical change of register. Instead of Schiller’s opening stanza:
Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
[Joy, bright spark of divinity,
Daughter of Elysium,
Drunk with fire we tread
Thy sanctuary!]
We get:
Live and love with open mind let our cultures intertwine.
Dig deep down, show what you’re made of, set the tone it’s time to shine.
We must fight for equal rights and share some common courtesy.
While pursuing all your dreams spread your joy from sea to sea….”
See:
https://slippedisc.com/2022/04/alsop-replaces-schiller-with-rapper-in-beethovens-9th/
After sitting through this dreadful performance of The Most Happy Fella, Conrad Osborne wrote this call-to-arms:
(“Post-Dramatists” do not believe that Life has any meaning, that we drift in chaos, and we should get used to it and celebrate it.)
“Post Dramatists advocate for the condition* (i.e. the meaninglessness of Life), think it’s cool and want us to jump into it with them and glide unprotesting to its indeterminate but somehow imminent destination, on pain of being dismissed as derrière-garde, behind the times.
I think it is very important for all of us, but especially all who work in any capacity in the arts, to understand this mindset…
—to understand it in order to see that it is the great task of the arts in the twenty-first century to set it into sharp, brilliantly illuminated relief, and then refute it, decelerate it with all possible braking force, and reclaim personhood for humanity.”
See:
https://conradlosborne.com/2022/08/12/summer-bonus-spaying-the-fella/17/
Another example of “wokeism” ruining a classic, again one by Beethoven:
“…Beethoven has been a particular target for textual revision. In February, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City hosted a production of Fidelio, an Enlightenment paean to freedom and to marital love.
In Beethoven’s version of the opera, a wife disguises herself as a male prison guard to free her husband from a Spanish fortress;
at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Fidelio became a Black Lives Matter critique of mass incarceration. A BLM activist is writing a doctoral dissertation on the Thirteenth Amendment and investigating corrupt “fascists” in the criminal-justice system. In retaliation, racist cops shoot him, and a racist warden of a supermax prison throws him into solitary confinement. The activist’s wife, unable to persuade any lawyers to take up her husband’s case pro bono, goes undercover as a female correctional officer in her husband’s prison.
This change from a male to a female disguise allows for a pleasingly homoerotic revision to the plot…”

I have met Marin Alsop…in NYC at Lincoln Center. She started Too Hot 2 Handel. Which was a striking performance. But this?

Always thought she was way off. Probably part of the plan to destroy our culture.

The solution to online abuse? AI plus human intelligence

First come up with a real definition of what online abuse is. Hurting someones feelings with a differing opinion is NOT abuse regardless of what the wokists say.
That hurts me when you say that. I’m reporting you for abuse.
You’re mean. That offended me. /sarc
lol @ “AI” AI is a set of computer programs written by humans. And some of those humans, while undoubtedly smart, are not necessarily well-versed in how people think or speak, especially if the work was outsourced.

Guilia Valentino (in the black shorts).
Source: Daily Mail
I double checked it was not April 1st or Babylon Bee.
lol at this line in the Daily Mail article:
At the final at the beginning of August, the match referee stopped the game after the first break in play to tell Valentino’s team, ‘the player is a man’, adding it was ‘a problem’.
What’s up with these guys? Aren’t they embarrassed? It would be analogous to an adult female playing against a bunch of 13 year old girls.
Hey, now that I think about it, what’s wrong with me saying I don’t feel like my current age, I’m actually 16? And then I can go to high school and blow all of the other kids away with my grades and test scores, get a scholarship to Hahhhvahhhd, etc.
Back in 2014, Sweden actually had a couple of 21 yr. old+ “Child Refugees” that were playing soccer on Middle School Boys teams.
ALL the girls need to simply walk off the field and ALL this BS would be OVER.
It’s the only thing that will stop it.
Let the freak run around kicking a ball by himself on the field for a couple of hours and see how that goes.
I’m surprised they haven’t done it yet. I realize it’s a hard thing for young people to do, but sadly they are the ones who have to stop this. Just like the gymnasts who were abused by Larry Nassar, it would have been great if just ONE adult would have stopped it, but they had to do it themselves. 🙁
They would have acted sooner on their own behalf if they hadn’t been led to believe that law enforcement, i.e., in this case FIB, was going to act on their behalf.
Which is probably a lesson we should all remember when it comes to the border.
The answers are simple but people are complex. It all boils down to sabotaging ourselves when our self interest overrides common decency, courtesy and respect. We can and should love ourselves without being so bloody selfish all the time.

I was listened to a part of Sean Hannity radio today ( I know, I swore I was done with him but he did have some good guests)…he had Alan Dershowitz, one of Trump’s lawyers, and the 2.0 guy he always has on…all lawyers.
But the one thing that was valuable was Dershowitz said there are only 4 requirements in the Constitution to be eligible to run for POTUS: No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States. Dershowitz said there was also a 4th requirement that you must not have been inpeached and found guilty with the requirement specifically that you could not run for office. But I did not see that in the list in the Constitution.
But assuming that is true, it does not matter if they found Trump guilty of anything he could still run from POTUS: he could run from a prison cell if necessary.
Also, he said these espionage statutes are so broad anyone could be indicted on them and they didn’t indict Hillary and she definitely was guilty.
I grabbed this from an online source:
Federal statute 18 U.S. Code 2071 had long banned the removal, concealment or destruction of presidential records. It says “willfully and unlawfully” removing such records can result in a penalty of up to three years in prison and that the defendant “shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.”
Marc Elias, a lawyer who litigates election law cases on behalf of Democrats, highlighted that line about disqualification and tweeted: “The media is missing the really, really big reason why the raid today is a potential blockbuster in American politics.”
But in a subsequent tweet, Elias wrote that there would undoubtedly be a “constitutional challenge to the application of this law to a president. One can speculate how it would turn out, but it is unprecedented and would be fully litigated.”
Rick Hasen, an election law expert at the University of California, Los Angeles, said he doesn’t see a conviction for violating 18 U.S. Code 2071 preventing Trump from running for office.
“That statute cannot trump the Constitution, which sets the exclusive qualifications for President,” Hasen wrote on his election law blog. “So this is not a path to making Trump legally ineligible to run for office.”
This would go to the SC and be overturned. It is clear the FBI was looking for a law that would stop Trump from running, then devised a crime with a pretext to pin it on him to stop him. It could be that Hillary wants to run and feels she would beat Pence, but not Trump in 2024 so she wants him knocked out.
Hillary could be behind this. She owns the DOJ and the FBI.
“shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.”
Looks like this is for WHEN in office. Sequential. First be removed then not not allowed to hold office thereafter.
FOUR YEARS WORTH!
This is the specificity needed to find a crime? Every. Single. Document. of President Trump’s presidency.
It ludicrous. They’re fishing.

Missouri Sheriffs Resisting FBI’s Concealed Carry Weapon Audit

Interesting! It appears AG Eric Schmitt (Trump-endorsed for US Senate) was the person who told them to not provide all of the CCW details. They provided procedural info only.
I’ll admit I really liked Desantis.
But my first thought, after hearing of the raid, on MAL, was “Where is Desantis?” No MAGA Governor is going to just stand by and watch this outrage.
Then I read the Desantis Twitter thread today. Desantis doesn’t have the $ to run for President.
The thought occurred to me that the fake MAGA mask was a VERY cynical approach to leveraging the GOPe to get they’re $.
And it WORKED!
He basically put a President DJT/MAGA gun to their heads and said: Pay me!
Think about the implications of that. The POWER that implies.
Damn, now I’m wondering about Kari Lake.
He apparently has a ton of money for his FL Governor campaign but there’s a rule that he can’t (or isn’t supposed to) use it for a federal campaign, though I think I read someone else did that very thing and got away with it.
I used to hate it when bazillionaires ran for political office. Now I think it’s preferable, they are less likely to be bought.
It’s an ABSOLUTE new level to the MAGA movement.
Pick up the MAGA gun and threaten the establishment with it.
BOOM! You’re a player, rolling in $.
It makes vetting SO MUCH harder.
Another level of political cynicism that I didn’t see coming.
Then you do not know most bazillionaires.
What do you think he could have done?
The Kari Lake statement comes to mind:
Kick the feds out of the state and threaten them with arrest if they return.
We’ll see what what she does when she’s governor.
She is not Gov. yet.
Easier to make statements when whatever you say cannot be tested in reality.
Thus my response to my post above.
So DeSantis should have sent FDLE to arrest the federal agents?
Read it again.
> Kick the feds out of the state and threaten them with arrest if they return.
And if the feds don’t leave MAL? Then what?
Don’t be naive.
I’ll clarify, without insulting your intelligence, announce they must leave the state in a said amount of time and then announce they will be arrested if they return.
That’s a TRUE MAGA response.
Uh huh. And then what?
Success requires a planned response rather than an immediate reaction.
Hillary Clinton used this same defense when defending the perp who raped that little girl back in the 80’s/90’s. Ms. Hill said it was the little girl who , basically, came on to the perp. Hill was ahead of her time.
……” The defence of a man charged with raping a 12-year-old girl has highlighted a growing call to urgently address New Zealand’s consent laws.
A judge, three jurors and a registrar all fought back tears as Tulisi Leiataua was found guilty of 33 charges of sexual abuse against two girls, the youngest of whom was 8 when it started.
It was a harrowing trial in which the defence centred around sex with the oldest girl being consensual and therefore not rape.

That has been the gameplan since the giddyup of this nightmare. The origin and key players are covered in A Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing 2: The Gender Agenda.
No, hers was worse. She said the little girl liked older men because she had a crush on a boy a year ahead of her in school. Hillary laughed about defending this: That little girl was abducted off her bike and gang raped, they left her unconscious for dead in a ditch, she was so damaged she had to undergo emergency surgery and was made unable to have children.
Hillary laughed about this.
DeSantis’ press secretary just resigned?
Oh nevermind. She’s just switching jobs, moving to his campaign.
She needs to lay off the lip filler.
I think she’s incredibly beautiful.
I pity women when they get the “Duckmouth/Joker ” effect.
Put it’s pitched as “a shake up” as if there is some sort of scandal.

TRUE THE VOTE
Saturday | The Pit | Livestream
This Saturday, August 13th, 2022, Right Side Broadcasting Network will be livestreaming our event, called The Pit, beginning at noon eastern.
What is The Pit? The name was taken from the scripture in Psalms 94:12-15
Blessed is the one you discipline, Lord, the one you teach from your law; you grant them relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug. For the Lord will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance. Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.
Attendees include 150+ social media influencers, journalists, researchers, law enforcement, and leading activists. The event will be live-streamed on Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN).
https://www.rsbnetwork.com/featured/exclusive-live-from-the-pit-a-vital-strategy-session-presented-by-true-the-vote
The Pit will be unlike any event we’ve ever hosted. We will share new information, provide solutions, calls to action, and educate about the real enemy we face – the globalist communist movement. They are bringing massive funding, espionage, and disinformation campaigns on both the right and the left.
Our broad goal is to bring a variety of people with critical skill sets together to uphold lawful elections and fight back against the subversion of the left and complacency of the right. There’s no more time to waste.
If you are inclined to support our efforts, we need resources now more than ever. We are providing grants to sheriffs, supporting a citizen led fusion center, and leading as the tip of the spear for honest American elections.
I believe everything we’ve been through has been to prepare for what is coming next. It will be a battle, but if we work together, we can win.
Ever onward-
Catherine

Murkowski Campaign Staff Details Hiding ‘Dark Money’ Support on Ranked Choice Voting From Opponents

I’m still not seeing any advice from Sarah Palin or Paul Begich to conservative voters telling them to make sure they rank Palin and Begich #1 and #2 in their (the voters’) preferred order. If the Begich voters rank Palin #3 or the Palin voters rank Begich #3, there’s a serious risk of losing that seat to the Dem.
The only good thing is that the winner of the Aug 16 special election merely finishes Don Young’s term, which ends in Jan 2023. And the Dems have the House majority anyway so the loss of a seat isn’t a big deal. But if they do make the voting mistake for the special election they’d better not repeat it in November when they elect the person who will take over in Jan 2023 for two years!
Come on Sarah Palin and Paul Begich, help your voters.
lol at a just-published NYT article, “Why Isn’t Biden Ever On TV?” Like they need to write an article about it.

NEW: Jeffrey ‘Zoomin’ Toobin Out at CNN
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/08/new-jeffrey-zoomin-toobin-cnn/?utm_source=Gab&utm_campaign=websitesharingbuttons
Wonder if he got caught again holding his junkie again.
Any other Florida Treehousers check their mail today and see the fundraising letter from our Governor? The envelope is printed to look like a handwritten letter. near the left corner is a fake hand written notation that reads and I quote “It’s Biden v. DeSantis!!”.. Florida Firewall is the PAC. The fake handwritten letter also has a pic of He, the First lady and the kiddos.
Sounds like someone’s trying to run him out of the Florida Gov. race.
He’s running unopposed for Gov. of Florida in 2022 against a bunch of Dems.
Probably Bushes and friends
Yep. And the whole DNC.
I am just disappointed I haven’t even had a staffer give me or anyone else I know so much as a “Thank you, we will look into it/Thank you for your support and concern” email for all the different correspondence sent to his Office.

The Associated Press: Southern Baptist Convention, the World’s largest Baptist Organization and US largest Protestant Christian denomination, says it is under investigation by US Department of Justice 🙄
DOJ pogrom
Biden just told us that inflation is now at ZERO. So why did they just pass the Inflation Reduction Act of inflation is already at zero? I guess Joe doesn’t need to sign it then.
Don’t know if posted – saw Rushdie – Iranian author – under death threat forever -stabbed 15 times as he got on outdoor stage in upstate Ny – critical condition – attacker arrested – 24 year old Middle easterner fanatic from NJ ! He wasn’t even BORN when Rushdie published his book that caused all the death threats THIRTY years ago ! Unbelievable….
His book didn’t cause deaths, it’s an inanimate object.
Your point ? Trying to be ironic ?
> “Rushdie published his book that caused all the death threats THIRTY years ago”
What’s your point? Are you claiming criticizing the koran justifies violence?
It’s true that the publishing of the book caused the death threats, but Nycjoe isn’t implying that the death threats were warranted.
Thanks , some people can’t read – does JX even know the history ?
The irony is that attacker wasn’t even born when the book was published … comprende ?
I’m fully aware of the history.
The book did not cause deaths or threats, the ideology of insane moslems did.
“Triggered” was probably a better word than “caused”.
Don’t blame the victim. The fault lies with those who answer criticism with violence.
Put the blame where it belongs: islamist ideology.

Man Killed in Standoff After Trying to Break Into Ohio FBI Building Was on Radar of Federal Authorities
feds were investigating Schiffer not because he committed any crimes, but because he attended a pro-Trump rally at Black Lives Matter Plaza in DC on January 5.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/08/man-killed-standoff-trying-break-ohio-fbi-building-radar-federal-authorities-months/
They were also scrutinizing his online comments, which is why I urge people to not write anything that could be twisted by the Dems as violent. I mentioned earlier that I have said “We’re at war” but I didn’t mean that WE were going to be fighting, I meant that the Dems were already attacking us. Of course Dems would interpret it as me being violent. They’re in control right now and they play dirty.
This Independent article has a lot of stuff about Schiffer’s online comments. Little or nothing is alarming to us, but to the Dem Gestapo it’s extreme terrorism.

So the Desantis game is this:
Gut the MAGA movement then wear it like a skin suit.
Pick up the President DJT/MAGA gun, point it at the head of the GOPe… and you can extort them for money and power… as long as you promise to be a good boy establishment shill from here on out.
Of course the skin suit stays put.

Reminder to conservatives in Alaska that you need to rank Palin and Begich #1 and #2 in your preferred order for the special election on Aug 16.
There are only 3 candidates instead of 4 because one (Gross) dropped out. So there are Palin (R), Begich (R), and Peltola (D). I’m afraid the Begich voters are going to rank Palin #3, and the Palin voters are going to rank Begich #3. If they do that they risk losing the seat to the Dem.
Here are a couple of scenarios with 100 votes to make the math easier.
====
Here we have emotional voting, Palin voters put Begich #3 instead of #2, and Begich voters do the same with Palin.
48 vote Palin Peltola Begich
27 vote Peltola Begich Palin
25 vote Begich Peltola Palin
Begich is out. Of the people who ranked Begich #1, their votes go to their second choice, Peltola. Peltola wins with 52. Dems win a seat.
====
Now here’s what happens if the Palin and Begich voters rank the candidates #1 and #2 in their preferred order:
48 vote Palin Begich Peltola
27 vote Peltola Begich Palin
25 vote Begich Palin Peltola
Begich is out. Of the people who ranked Begich #1, their votes go to their second choice, Palin. Palin wins with 75. Republicans keep the seat.
====
We need to vote strategically, not emotionally. Sometimes it means voting for someone you don’t like to achieve a greater goal. If you try to punish candidates you risk losing precious seats to Dems. All of the people who voted emotionally in 2018 and gave away that House majority to the Dems not only screwed all of us, they screwed Trump big time.
And in November Alaskans need to vote like this again, not just for the House seat but also for the Senate seat (and hopefully Murkowski isn’t one of the candidates).

So Turning Point Action is sponsoring “Unite and Win” rallies featuring DeSantis in Az, PA and OH.
The GOPe splitter campaign for 2024 has begun.
https://americasvoice.news/gov-ron-desantis-to-headline-unite-and-win-rallies-in-arizona-ohio-and-pennsylvania/
I saw a tweet about one of the rallies, I have to find it again, they were glowing about how the rally was predicted to be so big they needed a bigger venue. It’s like they’re just plagiarizing everything from Trump’s playbook, but it appears (maybe I’m wrong) they’re excluding him. There’s no mention of Trump on their rally posters. DeSantis is where he is because of Trump.
I think Charlie Kirk is fashioning himself as a king-maker.
Oh boy, I just watched a short tweeted video of Kirk and another guy promoting their Arizona event and saying it’s going to be so huge they need a bigger venue. So I looked at the replies to the tweet. There is only one.
Hahahaha
Charlie Kirk is bankrolled by Foster Friess’ family riches.
“Unite and Win” ………. why not use MAGA?
He should be using President Trump’s theme……. GOPe is starting to show through his veil?
He and Desantis may be cut from the same bolt of cloth…….. never trumpster GOPe under the MAGA facade.
If you ain’t MAGA …… you are GOPe.
“If you ain’t MAGA . . . you are GOPe.” EXACTLY!!!!!!
Think about the theme: Unite and Win. Is it implying that 45 is the one that’s caused the division?
I don’t think 45 would attend their rally. It would “confuse” MAGA people into thinking he is behind their rally. He will never give up his rally arena to anyone. He worked to hard to achieve his successful rallies. 45 knows if DeSantos is running. Plus, I don’t think he’s invited He not on the ad.
As Michael Burry (The Big Short) said yesterday: “The FBI lied to the FISA court, altered emails, leaked lies to the press to get Trump. Nothing’s shocking.”
Great movie and it’s perfect to watch again today with all of the parallels. Nothing changes if nothing changes.
Tulsa Gabbard subbing for Tucker tonite. Ugh, she’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Why is a Democrat subbing for Tucker Carlson??? If she were a decent person she would have denounced the Dems already.
DHS watchdog says department’s lawyers are slowing down Secret Service Jan. 6 text probe
Excerpt:
The inspector general for Homeland Security (DHS) has notified Congress that the department’s Office of General Counsel has inserted itself into the independent review of missing Secret Service text messages from Jan. 6, according to congressional correspondence reviewed by CBS News, and this is slowing down the department’s efforts to provide material Congress has requested.
“The Inspector General notified Congress that the Department’s General Counsel has directed DHS components — at least in this matter — not to provide the [Office of the Inspector General (OIG)] requested documents and information directly,” according to an Aug. 2 letter sent to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas from Ohio Sen. Rob Portman, the top Republican on the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
