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.

They can be rerouted to Martha’s Vineyard.
Or back from wence they came.
Better yet, have the Florida State Police waiting at the border. Stop the bus, inform the bus driver that if the driver doesn’t turn the bus around and return from whence it came, he will be arrested for transporting illegal aliens and the bus impounded as evidence.
RDS did threaten something like this a while back…
I have called for checkpoints to sniff out dope and human trafficking until my fingers bleed.
We are on the verge of a very real housing crisis here in Florida, unlike the toadies in MV.

I feel so unclean now by seeing that image!
For those who don’t know or don’t remember, the staged beach photo of the former president and her husband was timed to coincide with the Monica Lewinsky revelations . . . . When Hillary found out she didn’t really care….nothing new, but was more interested in preserving Bill’s power because that’s the only real power she ever had.
Right. She already had her eyes on that NY Senate seat and knew she couldn’t win if she divorced the creep.
Is that the same trip Bill was seen buying a Black Dog T-Shirt for Monica?
Starr’s report devotes a section to tracking clothing bought for Monica during the Clintons’ 1997 vacation.
Clinton reportedly gave Lewinsky two T-shirts, a hat and a sun dress from the Black Dog.

Clinton visited there in 1993, 1994 and 1997.
I wonder- if they visited in 1999 or afterwards- when JFK Jr plane never made it to Martha’s Vineyard

Remember that huge Bangladeshi RCT mask study that seemed to show a slight benefit to the use of certain types of) masks to prevent Covid? The covidiots jumped all over it as proof of mask efficacy, though it really did not show that.
Well, they did a statistical reanalysis.
“The statistical anomalies of the original Bangladeshi mask study have been revealed and corrected for in this re-examination. Surprise, surprise, masks no longer have a measurable effect.”

Everywhere, the walls are crumbling…..
Aggiegirl is patiently waiting for the class action lawsuits for the damage to the nasal cartilege from all the mandatory mask wearing for long lengths of time!
Sorry, they’re not saying that the results were wrong, they’re saying that it wasn’t a good study. And I want to point out the study only regarded surgical and cloth masks, not N95’s. N95’s work.

The Russians never planned to “conquer Ukraine” and still don’t.
Exactly, Mike.
The West keeps pushing, poking, goading Russia into declaring war. The West ssassinates Russian citizens near Moscow and ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine via missiles and bombs.
The West shovels horrid, lying propaganda via the mass media that Russian soldiers torture and commit mass murder in eastern Ukraine (I just saw that in a report on a Fox affiliate in Milwaukee). Russia targets civilians, they say.

Now apply the 1st Amendment to Alex Jones.
He is being railroaded through kangaroo court show trials in not one, but two states. The judges declared default judgments against Jones in both cases over the extent of what his teams provided in discovery.
These two Jones civil trials are intended to take him off the air, bankrupt his business, and shut up conservative/libertarian voices.
I’m hoping because of exactly that – that the judges declared Jones guilty in both cases without Jones being allowed to have that trial and then the Judges both made the trials into a damages trial – will be immediate grounds for appeal by Jones’ lawyers.
In the Part 1 interview Jones did on Del Bigtree’s The Highwire show (on rumble) there is clear tape where the prosecutors state their entire intent is to run Alex Jones and then others, completely off all airwaves, not unlike that Plouffe tweet where Plouffe said it wasn’t enough to destroy Trump but that they must make sure his kind never arises again – those prosecutors are clearly violating Jones’ First Amendment rights.
That part of the lawfare strategy – keep on pounding until their victim either goes bankrupt so can afford to continually defend themselves or simply give in. Only evil does stuff like that.
Viva Frei and Robert Barnes have been staying on top of the Connecticut trial and providing commentary. This is more than two hours long. I thought it was good. Viva and Barnes pound the facts so that more of the legal and general public can grasp how abusively the courts are acting. If these judges don’t come under strong scrutiny and condemnation, nobody will be same.
What is happening to Alex Jones in our civil “justice” system is Un-American.

First, this confirms that illegals currently CAN be tracked and quickly found. Trump said thats the case without giving specifics. Thank God.
Secondly, their evil motivations can lead to technology that will thwart the GPS tracking they currently use to keep Americans under their totalitarian thumbs.

I’m glad I don’t live downtown any more.
The thugs take any excuse to rumble.
Anarchy in Chicago…where I grew up.
It used to be a wonderful, safe downtown and many other neighborhoods.
Now the unpunished lawlessness is wrecking everything.
In other words- we vote for these policies but they aren’t our problem. We are doing it to turn Texas and Arizona blue.
He’s right.
It’s ridiculous the way that Repubs let the lies of the Left alone. No attempts made to correct rampant mis-information.
And then add Lindsey Graham on top of it all, blowing the issue up again, when it had finally been dying down.
Disgusting.
Its fascinating to encounter people who have, what psychologists refer to, as an external locus of control rather than an internal locus of control.
When bad things happen, external locus of control people react by complaining about vaguely described “others” who they believe control everything or could if they wanted to.
Externals, on the other hand, focus on what they can do rather than relying of these vague, outside, others to save them
Externals remind me of Dorothys before plucky Toto got her to look away from the big screen illusions so she could see reality; reality that had been concealed behind the curtain.
Once Dorothy saw reality, she became an Internal Locus of control person. She stopped focusing on make believe all powerful wizard saviors.
Instead she realized it was up to her and her companions to deal with their wicked witch problems.
And that’s when the wicked witch problems started to be solved.
Thank God for Toto Trump. Thank God for everyone who embraces the reality that they, not TV politician wizards, have the real power to deal with our real wicked witches. Thank God for those willing to allow Him to work with them and through them.
With God, ALL things ARE possible.
He’s wrong. All recent polls show Republicans either moving further ahead where they have been leading, or are closing the gap where they had been behind. Just today, JD Vance in Ohio has increased his lead, and so has Gov. DeWine. Yesterday, it was reported that in GA both Republican candidates had increased their leads over their Democrat opponents.
Too many people who should know better are buying the fake Democrat polls.
Do you agree with the rest of his statement, tho?
Because that’s the part that I think is Extremely. Relevant.
“Do you agree with the rest of his statement?”.
While you didnt ask me, you did ask, so I’ll respond too.
I dont agree with his focus or his implied solution.
In my opinion, he’s still a Dorothy, believing Wizard of DC politicians he sees on TV have the power to deal with our wicked witch problems.
Hopefully, he’ll listen more closely to Toto Trumps words, starting with President Trumps amazing Inauguration Speech. A speech btw, that triggered the assembled politician wizards of DC who were quoted referring to President Trumps words ” crazy talk”.
As with all profound messages, that speech makes so much more sense now than it did when I first heard it on January 20, 2017.
This Inauguration isn’t about transferring power from one party to another. Its about transferring power from DC and returning that power to the American people.
I agree that the Republican Party isn’t doing their job to help candidates win, but which states is Straka talking about?
This poll flies in the face of what Straka is selling.
Only 39 percent of Americans approve of President Joe Biden, while just 25 percent of independents approve of the president, a Wednesday Ipsos poll revealed.
Only nine percent of Americans say Biden’s America is headed in the right direction. Seventy-four percent say it headed down the wrong track.
The poll sampled 1,003 Americans from September 12-13 with a 3.8 margin of error. It included 460 Democrats, 360 Republicans, and 124 independents.
As the midterms approach, the nation’s top issue remains the economy and specifically inflation (30 percent), the poll found. Immigration (8 percent) and crime (8 percent) round out the top three most important issues for Americans. Abortion was only 7%.
And look how many more Democrats were sampled, almost the combined number of R’s and I’s.
And a few more points about this bogus Ipsos poll since it shows Democrats ahead in the generic congressional ballot by 4 points – 37% to 33%.
First, this was a poll of adults, not registered or likely voters. Second, 12% will not or do not plan to vote and are not included in the figures. Third, also not included, are the 15% who claim to be undecided. With 7 weeks before the election, that is a very high number of undecideds and is quite suspect. And lastly, you cannot use a national poll of around 1,000 adults to determine the election of 435 Congress members in local elections, as well as the many Senators up for election this cycle. That’s about two poll sample adults for each district. It would be interesting to know what districts their poll sample included.

Wow wow wow!!! Pete Hegseth just opened the Jesse Waters show with a perfectly accurate opinion piece about America’s need to return to God and Christianity and the Bible. It was amazing! He even talked about the church getting back to teaching the Bible vs building bigger buildings and trying to mold to culture. Then Charlie Kirk wrapped it up with a bow. I was stunned and thrilled! If they show it later on their website or Rumble, be sure to watch it. I plan to write him a letter. It is exactly what the answer is for our country.👍🏻🙏🏼✝️ 🇺🇸
I don’t want to offend but religion actually isn’t necessary. I’m an atheist. I’m probably more moral than most religious people. I operate on principles, some of which are similar to what’s found in the Bible but mine aren’t Bible-based.
” … religion actually isn’t necessary … ”
For you.
(Fixed it since you didn’t want to offend.)
Christianity wasn’t meant to be a religion nor is it for millions of Christians. Orthodox Christians teasingly refer to Roman Catholics and point out that Christ didn’t come to create an new religion. He came to end the need for religions and priest intermediaries. He came to establish The Way of Life. Will similar in many ways, each persons journey is unique and personal.
However, a Christian foundation, coupled with our Constitutions protections, allows everyone the freedom to have their own opinions.
Thankfully, our Constitution keeps pharisee Christians from turning the Bible into the Koran anf instituting a Christian version of Sharia Law.
Allies, yes. In control? The MAGA answer is, no.
Whoopsie. Othodox Christian tease == Roman Catholics are the first protestants.

Since this is a relatively open thread I have an open question for you all. If things got too bad, which is the best country to which escape? I would like to use the knowledge of everyone here.
This is what the left-wing U.S. News & World Report says:
Canada
Denmark
Sweden
Norway
Switzerland
Australia
Netherlands
Finland
I don’t buy this list.
Heritage has this list:
Singapore
Switzerland
Ireland
New Zealand
Luxembourg
Taiwan
Estonia
Netherlands
I don’t buy this one either. There are some repeats, Switzerland and Netherlands, but I hear it’s very difficult to move to Switzerland.
Chile is very beautiful and has a climate similar to California in many parts and they’re recent election wasn’t too bad.
Any expatriates here to give their input?
If things get too bad then stay and fight. That’s what prior generations did.
We’re 50% of the country.
If you are not currently an American citizen, continue your research and make your best choice.
I am an American. If “things get too bad”, “escape” is not an option for me. If my country is threatened with destruction whether it be from enemies foreign or domestic, I shall take myself out of retirement from the military and will be guided, as I once was, by Executive Order 10631, CODE OF CONDUCT FOR MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES.
Article I states:
I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.
The final line of the Code says:
I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.
I am not the only American who swore to honor that code.
Perhaps your article was satire. Alas, my senior brain sometimes no longer recognizes such things.
There is no escape to another country although moving out of urban areas is prudent.
During this world wide war, immigration desertion is futile.
He who seeks to save his life loses it. Forever.
Biden Regime just appealed. They really, really don’t want the special master to see the 100 documents allegedly labeled classified. Why is it such a big deal? Why can’t the guy have a look and if they really are labeled classified, DOJ can have them back?
Of course they did. Which is why the judge added three explanatory sections at the end of her order.
The Feds have no case, but “this is how Lawfare rolls.” They are trying to protect officials who have committed many crimes. They fear one thing: exposure. But they are running out of rope.
Yup Mike Robinson,
The game clock is running and the feds have no more time outs……….
They tried their “hell Mary Mccord” pass but President Trump batted it to the ground………
“Let’s go Brandon and the doj and the f**!”
Any DOJ appeal around a Judge Cannon ruling goes to the 11th District Court of Appeals.
6 out of the 11 11th District Court of Appeals judges are Trump appointees.
Every Court of Appeals is overseen by a SCOTUS Justice.
Which SCOTUS Justice oversees the 11th District Court of Appeals?
Justice Clarence Thomas.
The trial judge in Trump’s Special Master case ruled against Department of Justice & told Special Master “have at it–ALL the records, look, let Trump’s lawyers see.” DOJ said you’re wrong & we will ask 11th Circuit (appellate court) to overturn your Special Master, and 1/
2/the DOJ said “since you are wrong, “stay” or put on hold your order and don’t let Special Master or Trump’s lawyers see the classified documents. Trial judge said “nope. Carry on Special Master.” DOJ asked 11th Circuit (appellate court) to “stay” order and not let
3/3 Special Master or Trump’s lawyers review the classified materials until the appellate court rules.
THREAD: BREAKING DOJ filed Motion for Stay pending appeal in Eleventh Circuit
2/ Big mistake: Overselling your case in opener.
3/ Ignores Judge’s position that she doesn’t have to trust DOJ on this conclusion.
4/ This is just not a persuasive argument: that a criminal investigation is essential to identifying and mitigating national-security risks.
5/ This is really what DOJ doesn’t want to do: But court required those disclosures to be consistent with protection of material. The idea it is a harm to DOJ is ridiculous–other than harm them in hiding truth or getting Trump.
6/ More bad advocacy: Don’t ignore judge’s argument or mispresent–confront it head on.
7/Just saw this which also cuts against the “months-long delay argument.” On Tuesday, court can set steps for the classified document review.
8/ Gov’t makes this point, but that President has right to have his records available cuts against claim allowing his attorney’s to review is harm to government.
9/ Again, gov’t is giving Trump an easy response by continuing to push this argument:
10/ This strikes me as “the lady doth protest too much.” Gov’t is pretending like Trump’s lawyers wouldn’t have right to review documents that would form basis of charges.
11/11 DOJ is ignoring huge harm to both Trump & public: Trust DOJ/FBI is telling truth.
Post-Twit: So what will Motion’s Panel Do? As the late, great Professor G. Bob Blakey would say: Depends on if he’s a right-knee jerk judge or a left-knee jerk judge.
Will the Appeals Court judge respond to the DOJs request with a “right-knee jerk” or “left- knee jerk”?
No one knows for sure until the knee jerks.
However, out of the 11 Appeals Court judges, 6 are Trump appointees.
Who oversees this Appeals Court? Justice Clarence Thomas.
Marked classified =/= legitimately marked classified or still classified.
Which, of course, they arent.
Hence the DOJs desperation to keep them hidden from a classification savvy, neutral third party Special Master and retired FISC judge.
Rules governing classification, first signed by Obama (lol), are covered in EO 13526 Sec. 1.7.
This EO == the DOJ is screwed unless they can keep the documents hidden.
Fortunately, they cant. They ARE screwed.
Watching Swamp vampires start to realize the Don is rising and OMG there’s no escape is fascinating and provides great intel.
LEARN FROM THE PILGRIMS:
Well, at that time the Pilgrims operated under what is called the “common storehouse” system. In its essence it was basically socialism. People were assigned jobs and the fruits of their labor would be redistributed throughout the community not based on how much work someone had done but how much they supposedly needed.
The only problem with this mode of economics is that it fails every time. Even the Pilgrims, who were a small group with relatively homogeneous beliefs, were unable to successfully operate under a socialistic system without starvation and death being only moments away. Governor William Bradford explained that under the common storehouse the people began to “allege weakness and inability” because no matter how much or how little work someone did they still were given the same amount of food. Unsurprisingly this, “was found to breed much confusion and discontent.”
The Pilgrims, however, were not the type of people to keep doing what does not work. And so, “they began to think how they might raise as much corn as they could, and obtain a better crop than they had done, that they might not still thus languish in misery.” And, “after much debate of things” the Pilgrims under the direction of William Bradford, decided that each family ought to “trust to themselves” and keep what they produced instead of putting it into a common storehouse. In essence, the Pilgrims decided to abandon the socialism which had led them to starvation and instead adopt the tenants of individual responsibility and the free market.
And what was the result? According to Bradford, this change of course, “had very good success; for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been.”
Referring back to the article from yesterday about the Special Master, where does it say in the order that Trump has to cover that cost? I’m going nuts trying to find it. Sundance said it, and there are several media outlets saying it, but I cannot find the text in Cannon’s ruling. Someone please help me. 🙂 Ruling is here: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.618763/gov.uscourts.flsd.618763.89.0.pdf A commenter said the info is in paragraph 14 but I still don’t see it.
FOLK: ICYMI This is hilarious! The Judge ordered the government to basically give Trump back all his documents, other than the ones marked classified!
_____
i. The Government shall do as follows:
aa. Provide to Plaintiff’s counsel copies of documents not marked as classified.
https://mobile.twitter.com/ProfMJCleveland/status/1570773588671893504
14. The Plaintiff (Trump v United States S. D. Fla., 9:22-cv-81294) shall bear 100% of the professional fees and expenses of the Special Master and any professionals, support staff, and expert consultants engaged at the Special Master’s request.
https://mobile.twitter.com/ProfMJCleveland/status/1570573722188410880
Here is the link to the Judge’s ruling which appointed the Special Master, and is where item 14 (Plaintiff bears the cost) is found and the other in item aa. where the govt has to return everything else to PDJT.
The link you provided from court listener is for the Judge’s ruling denying the government’s request for a partial stay that they filed after her ruling granting the Special Master.
