If there is one economic dynamic we have talked about on these pages more than the rest, its inflation.  {Background}

The root causes of inflation are two-fold, monetary policy and energy policy.  However, when combined they represent a predictable outcome.  Specifically predictable, when it comes to highly consumable goods that require a lot of industrial effort, labor, distribution and warehousing processes.  Thus, food inflation was/is worst.

Kamala Harris and her boss did this to millions of Americans

Within all of the sectors most vulnerable to upward price pressure as a result of policy (monetary and energy), the main industry impacted by immediate and severe inflation is food, farming and agriculture.  Food, a highly consumable product with a thin supply chain, sees the results of inflation first and fastest.  Durable good inflation lags behind high-velocity consumable goods.

It was with this understanding CTH first warned in 2020 of what would happen coming out of the COVID Pandemic economic crisis.  We predicted and watched in 2020 as one-third of all food supplies were destroyed because 50% of the food supply chain (restaurants, cafeterias, schools, food trucks, essentially food away from home) was shuttered.

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.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

A very simple ballot counting rule was affirmed by the Georgia election board on Friday in a 3-2 vote.

The “hand count” ballot rule (183-1:12) is very basic and simple.  Essentially it says all the paper ballots must be hand counted and matched to the number of people recorded electronically to the vote.  Example, if 1,000 votes are electronically counted, there should be 1,000 physical ballots to match.  This is not complicated and will not take much time.

The ballots are not being checked for voting accuracy, or vote recording/candidate specifics.  Only the number of ballots, the number of physical ballots, that should match the number of recorded voters.  Easy peasy, very simple. Not complex.

However, despite the simplicity of the new rule, the DNC and left-wing activists are furious about the simple process. “This is nothing more than an 11th-hour effort by Donald Trump and his ‘pit bulls’ to slow down the counting of ballots so they can attack and undermine any result they don’t like,” Jamie Harrison, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, said on Friday afternoon. [LINK]

What Georgia election rule 183-1-12 does through the hand count is stop the issue of scanning a ballot more than once to count a single ballot (or batch of ballots) as multiple votes of the batch.  One ballot, one vote, one voter, match the counts and easy peasy.

If you count 100 one-dollar bills, you should have $100.  However, if you count 100 one-dollar bills and your sales report shows $500 sold there’s a problem.  Ballots are the same.

Seeing the leftists go bananas over this single and simple rule enforcement, makes me wonder how much the Clyburn team need to scan batches of ballots multiple times.  If they lose Pennsylvania (Philly and Pittsburgh) as a fraud vector for success, Georgia becomes much more important.  Clyburn has spent a lot of time and resource energy in Georgia.  Suspicious Cat remains, well, increasingly suspicious.

Today, President Donald Trump will head to Wilmington, North Carolina, for a MAGA rally in the Tarheel state.

The Obama team feel confident in their ability to manipulate Michigan and Wisconsin.  However, they also understand that if Kamala Harris loses Pennsylvania, their only chance at electoral victory would be to win North Carolina and Georgia as an offset.  The tenuously slipping Pennsylvania race is why Brian Fallon and the Chicago Marxists are focusing an alternate ‘southern strategy’ approach.

The recent position of the Teamsters has triggered anxiety in the Obama team’s Michigan and Wisconsin confidence. [SEE HERE]  To counter the intent of Team Harris in NC and GA, President Trump is campaigning in key areas to maintain enthusiastic support.  President Trump is expected to speak in Wilmington, North Carolina at 2:00pm ET.  Livestream Links Below:

Andrew Breitbart was well known in the grassroots Tea Party movement for his ability to turn Alinsky psychological weapons against those who deployed them. In fact, the gift that Breitbart carried was not Andrew’s snarky counter approach toward the Obama teams tactics, but rather his ability to understand the purpose of their approach. This naturally gifted insight always made Andrew a threat.

Well before the Obama Marxists fully activated their weaponized government, Breitbart saw the Alinsky “methods” for what they were, the same tactics deployed by professional abusers. He knew we were headed into an era where “We the People” were in an abusive relationship with government.

In essence, Andrew Breitbart understood that if this tribe of Chicago Marxists were successful in the constructs of the government they envisioned, they would manipulate American politics in much the same manner that an abuser would intimidate, threaten and eventually control their victims. Better yet, Breitbart inherently knew how to defeat them and their predictable gaslighting.

The abuser punches you in the face, intending total control and manifest domination. If you stand up against the abuse, your injuries are then positioned as your fault. When we hit back, our abuser immediately takes the victim role; and with the media spectators on the side of the abuser, the victim never stands a chance. Wash, rinse and repeat.

Breitbart took his counter-offensive skills into the field and when the community activists surfaced to promote their abusive agenda, Andrew immediately began calling attention to their intent. He used their own methods against them, ridiculing them, making them live up to their own message, making them uncomfortably small, speaking big truth to their lies in a very matter-of-fact deconstruction of their psychological nonsense. He was incredibly effective.

What we have witnessed in the past 18 years is exactly this rise of Chicago Marxists into positions of power. They spread throughout government embedding into every institution thanks to the open doors provided by Barack Obama, Eric Holder and a host of like-minded fellow travelers.

We are now fully emersed in an abusive relationship with the system of government institutions demanding and enforcing victim compliance. When an individual member of the people rise in opposition, the weaponized agencies of government use their power to target them quickly. The institutions now perpetuate the abusive process. Victims start feeling entirely powerless against the full weight of the abusers.

There comes a moment in the performance of the Marionette when the strings become visible.  Once you see those strings, you can never return to that moment in the performance when you did not see them.

In the bigger picture challenge for Brian Fallon, this visibility always represents a risk.  Yes, people can see the strings and it doesn’t matter who tries to hide them, even Oprah Winfrey.
