The Vault Dweller said...: Yeah the various talking heads on Left Wing Television media seem to be uniformly bemoaning Kamala now. Combined with First the LA Times and now the Washington Post non-endorsements this feels like the servants are feeling the weakness of the Democrats right now. There must be some very scary polling numbers making the rounds in Democrat apparatus.; 10/25/24, 7:12 PM

In our house we chew cookies. Including cashew cookies.; 10/25/24, 8:07 PM
Big Mike said...: Here’s a selection:

6. David Axelrod: She is word salad city.

5. Scott Jennings: Kamala is a double threat because she can’t answer anything.

4. Jake Tapper: She spent most of the time talking about Trump.

3. Dana Bash: Kamala did not close the deal.

2. Van Jones: The word salad stuff gets on my nerves.

1. David Urban: Kamala lost a one person debate.; 10/25/24, 8:12 PM

Dixcus said...: Guess who is NOT on the front page of CNN:

Kamala Harris

The only mention of her is how badly she's polling against Trump, who is ahead.; 10/25/24, 8:20 PM
Original Mike said...: Polls, meh.; 10/25/24, 8:25 PM
The rule of Lemnity said...: Omg Glenn Greenwald says Kamala regressed at the CNN Town Hall. She got worse. How the heck did that happen? Is it possible Kamala is using and abusing cocaine? There are videos going around social media but I don’t know their provenance.; 10/25/24, 8:29 PM
Original Mike said...: IDK about drugs, but her affect does seem to have changed. It's "flat" rather than "bubbly".; 10/25/24, 8:38 PM
Jimmy said...: Can any of the leftists or anyone on this blog say anything positive about Harris? something she actually accomplished, at anytime in her time in public life? without mentioning trump. Has she actually accomplished anything?
oh, and being endorsed by some celeb doesn't count.; 10/25/24, 8:46 PM
Dixcus said...: She can draw a crowd.

In Texas.

That's something.

Of course, Beyonce needs to be there giving a free concert.

But still.; 10/25/24, 8:47 PM
Mason G said...: From an opinion piece in the WSJ:

"Steve and voters like him tend to be older, low-information, less-educated Trump voters. Come Election Day, we expect them to vote Republican down the ballot."

Yeah, everybody knows Republicans are idiots. Of course, nothing says "hip, educated voter" quite like a Democrat voting for a gibbering fool because she's black(ish), has a vagina and a (D) after her name.; 10/25/24, 8:52 PM

“Russian actors made fake video depicting mail-in ballots for Trump being destroyed, FBI says

YARDLEY, Pa. (AP) — Russian actors were behind a widely circulated video falsely depicting mail-in ballots for Donald Trump being destroyed in Pennsylvania, U.S. officials confirmed on Friday.

The video had taken off on social media Thursday but was debunked within three hours by local election officials and law enforcement after members of the public reported it.

U.S. officials said in a statement sent by the FBI that they believe the video was “manufactured and amplified” by Russian actors. The officials said it’s part of “Moscow’s broader effort to raise unfounded questions about the integrity of the U.S. election and stoke divisions among Americans.”

The information was released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

The Bucks County Board of Elections had identified the video as fake on Thursday, saying the envelope and other materials in the video “are clearly not authentic materials belonging to or distributed by” the board.“; 10/25/24, 8:57 PM
NorthOfTheOneOhOne aka Doug Emhoff's Pimp Hand said...: Big Anniversary day today - October 25, 1944 - Battle of Surigao Strait - RADM Jesse Olendorf's 3rd Fleet decisively defeats Japanese VADM Shoji Nishimura's Southern Force, sinking the battleship Fusō with torpedo fire and severely crippling the battleship Yamashiro and heavy cruiser Mogami with gunfire. The last salvo in the battle was fired by USS Mississippi which fired all 12 of her 14-inch guns. While this was Mississippi's only salvo of the battle it proved to be the last salvo ever fired by a battleship against another battleship.; 10/25/24, 9:20 PM
Democratic Paychecks for Perks/ Dems for Demolition of Democracy/ fake-cares 4-U said...: Sad circumstance when the choice of believability is between Russian actors and the FBI.
The same FBI who manufactured the Whitmer kidnapping scheme (with luring losers using bribes - all flushed out in a court of law) - and the FBI who stated that Hunter's laptop "had all the hallmark's of Russian disinformation." and on and on....; 10/25/24, 9:29 PM
Democratic Paychecks for Perks/ Dems for Demolition of Democracy/ fake-cares 4-U said...: I just heard another clip of Kamala's word salad on the Jesse Kelly show. Wow - I busted out laughing.; 10/25/24, 9:30 PM
Dixcus said...: Well, since Inga is posting this, we know that the Democrats are destroying Trump ballots in Pennsylvania.; 10/25/24, 9:37 PM
Dixcus said...: Tell us more about the Russians faking up Hunter's laptop, Inga.; 10/25/24, 9:38 PM
Dixcus said...: Same FBI that rounded up all those Pedophile Billionaires raping kids on Epstein's Island.

Oh wait ...; 10/25/24, 9:39 PM

Vance said...: What Inga's trying to say is that only leftists like the Black Panthers are allowed to hang around polling places, and that she wants more of them standing there to beat people's heads in if they don't vote for Kamala...; 10/25/24, 9:54 PM
Dixcus said...: Laws restricting free speech in voting areas are PATENTLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL.; 10/25/24, 9:54 PM
Dixcus said...: And those Black Panthers were armed.

“Voter punches poll worker when reminded Texas law requires removal of MAGA hat at election site.

Officials said Lutzenberger arrived around 6:30 p.m. to vote and put on his hat supporting a candidate. Documents specified it was a red “Make American Great Again” cap, referencing Trump’s campaign slogan.

It’s against Texas election rules, however, to wear badges or attire referencing candidates or measures on the ballot while in a polling place. Salazar said a poll worker at Johnston Library reminded Lutzenberger about the rules, and he removed it before casting his ballot.“

Hopefully you folks check your state laws before wearing your Maga hats to the polls, looking at you Dixcus.; 10/25/24, 9:55 PM

Original Mike said...: Prosecutors in key Pennsylvania county say they've busted a fraudulent voter registration scheme

"Lancaster District Attorney Heather Adams told a news conference that detectives have found about 60% of some 2,500 election registrations submitted in recent days to the county's election office were fraudulent."; 10/25/24, 9:58 PM
Dixcus said...: Was the election offical boarding up the counting room windows again, Inga? If so, then of course they SHOULD be assaulted. And they're going to be. Every single one caught doing it this time around. They're going to get their asses beat.

Also the story you linked says the election official illegally GRABBED the voter who was on his way OUT of the election facility after taking a MAGA hat off. So there is some question as to who assaulted whom and who defended themselves. We'll find out long after the election of course, but since you have a HORRID RECORD of posting propaganda on this site, nobody believes you.; 10/25/24, 10:00 PM
Dixcus said...: I intend to SPEAK FREELY everywhere in the United States, irrespective of any unconstitutional laws you might claim prevent that, Inga. That includes wearing my MAGA hat wherever the fuck I want.; 10/25/24, 10:03 PM
Inga said...: “This wouldn’t be the first time paid canvassers have forged political forms. In Michigan, where candidates must gather signatures from supporters to make the ballot, five Republican candidates were disqualified from running for governor in 2022 after paid petition gatherers forged countless nominating petitions.”

Dixcus said...: Inga is proving that elections can be stolen. Glad she's on Team Trump finally.; 10/25/24, 10:20 PM
Dixcus said...: Inga is also telegraphing that she's received new orders: Cast doubt on the result.

Which wouldn't be her orders unless they know Kamala isn't going to win.

Trump's not going to win either; they'll just murder him. But Kamala isn't going to win.; 10/25/24, 10:21 PM

Balfegor said...: Listening to Trump on Rogan now and I'm reminded of why I find Trump a bit irritating in large doses. He really does digress so much. He eventually does circle back to the question, but it takes him so long.

I don't listen to Rogan, but he's a very . . gentle interviewer. Just lets Trump talk and redirects a bit (25 minutes in). I suppose because he's putting up 3 hour long interviews so he doesn't have to worry about getting it done on a schedule.; 10/25/24, 10:33 PM
Original Mike said...: If there weren't so many holes in the system, we would not be dependent on being lucky they got caught. How many do we not catch?

The system is designed to fail. We are the laughingstock of the world.; 10/25/24, 10:55 PM
Eva Marie said...: This is a really good discussion between Ben Shapiro and 25 Kamala Harris supporters. Really well organized. Both sides made their best points.
