rehajm said...: The cabal must still believe Kamala is their front man. Spam text today :This is Kamala Harris with a last-ditch request for a contribution to the Democratic National Committee before their official FEC fundraising deadline comes to a close at midnight.

When this deadline ends, they are legally required to report how much money they've raised. The number of donations they've received will also be public.

Everyone will be watching: the press, the Trump administration,

FormerLawClerk said...: It is STUNNING to me that Virginia Guiffre has been run over by a bus and the media could care less about that story.

The woman who brought down Jeffrey Epstein, who implicated Bill Clinton and the Royal family in a child sex ring ... has been

RUN.

OVER.

BY.

A.

BUS.

And is on death's door and the only story I can find about this is in the NY Post. And they don't say when this occurred. Where it occurred. Which bus hit her. Who was driving it. Who's fault it was. Which police agency responded. If anybody else was injured.

NOTHING.

She is, according to them, on her deathbed. The Post ran a photo that looks like somebody beat the ever loving crap out of her face.

And that's it.

She's just going to go unnoticed and a bunch of very rich pedophiles are going to get away with murder.; 3/31/25, 7:51 PM

Drago said...: John Spencer @spencerguard on X relays:

“Taiwan has not seen such a clear statement from the United States until now,” said Jun-ji Shih, a former vice premier who was an advisory member of Taiwan’s National Security Council until 2020.

Taiwan is reassured that the Trump administration has made deterring a Chinese seizure of the island a military priority, former officials and analysts said Monday, after months of mounting concern that the president would abandon U.S. support."

You would be hard pressed to find a news story more guaranteed to piss off The New Soviet Democraticals, like Rich, than a story demonstrating the Trump admin challenging the dems ChiCom allies.

Eva Marie said...: The earlier post on Richard Chamberlain brought to mind my aunt. She had 2 movie/tv stars she loved. One was Richard Chamberlain and the other was John Davidson.
Davidson was the son of Baptist ministers who became a passionate atheist. He is also a Democrat and wrote a song for Kamala Harris to the tune of Camelot. He is 83 years old and has a home in Sandwich , Connecticut where he has a lounge called Club Sandwich. He spends his summers performing and his winters on his boat on the Mexican coast.
Here’s a video of him reminiscing about the diesel trawler he bought in 1975 and his travels with his family:

This is the song he wrote for Kamela:

FormerLawClerk said...: @Politico

Trump is now laser focused on Harvard University.

"In a statement on Monday, the administration said that it was examining about $256 million in Harvard contracts, as well as an additional $8.7 billion in what it described as ‘multiyear grant commitments.'”

You remember Harvard. That's where the University president was found to be a plagiarist fake who resigned in disgrace ...

... and yet somehow, this plagiarist fakir - Claudine Gay - still works for Harvard. She's making a 7-figure US taxpayer-funded salary lounging around Boston bars. Must be fun being gay. It sure seems profitable.; 3/31/25, 9:32 PM

wildswan said...: Full Moon referred to a story about a list of those supporting the so-called Tesla Takedown. I don't know if the list is correct but it includes one organiation dedicated to ending the fossil fuel industry. Hard to know how taking down a leading e-car manufacturer is going to help end the fossil fuel industry.

"Hello
@ElonMusk and Friends,
You asked who is funding and organizing the #TeslaTakedown protests. I've got answers for you, after .... following the money -- and the data.

Which is expected to be a few years given expected stagflation, according to guy who has made me a LOT of money investing over the last 20 years.

And yes, Drago, I continue to own zero Musk or Zuck businesses ... and still have wonderful results over the last year.; 3/31/25, 10:05 PM

Gee, I am sorry you have such an incompetent financial advisor (is his name LLR-democratical Rich?) that he couldnt see the need for a portfolio rebalancing reflecting a Main Street vs Wall Street perspective.

But then again, you aren't Dumb Lefty Mark for nuttin'!

Did you tell your advisor to take all your assets and short Tesla? Remember, you called Tesla a sure fire loser. Did you do it?....dont hold back now.; 3/31/25, 10:17 PM

Gospace said...: Seems there's a lot of info about lots of spending on the WI SC race, but not a lot of breakdown. And, of course, that doesn't include all the negative publicity the absolutely unbiased news media is giving Elon Musk for trying to buy the election with a one million dollar donation to the Republican party, almost 50% of what George Soros gave the Democrats! Totally unfair he should try to buy an election that Soros has rightfully stolen...

When teh donations are all sorted out, it''ll probably be the Democrats way ahead, though the best I could fins is 50 million for Reps, 40 million for Dems- with 100 million spent so far. Apparently no one has the real numbers. From here:
https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/wisconsin-supreme-court-race-breaks-spending-record-fueled-out-state
Oh, and in their absolutely unbiased news coverage, all the PACs spending for Brad Schimel are from untraceable out of state dark money. All the money some by outside groups for Crawford, well...
But independent groups like super PACs and nonprofits spending untraceable “dark money” favor Schimel by a much larger margin Hmm, dark money directly associated with him, not her.

Schimel is also supported by $4.3 million from Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce, an industry dark money group; More dark money!

but for Crawford: Crawford’s biggest independent support includes $6.2 million in expenditures by A Better Wisconsin Together, a state group with major donations from Wisconsin philanthropist Lynde Uihlein.. Well, heck, it's just totally innocent independent support...

And most people can't identify the slant in reporting, even when it's this obvious. All the other other articles I read showed the same slant- good money going to Crawford, evil money going to Schimel.; 3/31/25, 11:57 PM
gadfly said...: The Trump administration acknowledged in a court filing Monday that it had grabbed a Maryland father with protected legal status and mistakenly deported him to El Salvador, but said that U.S. courts lack jurisdiction to order his return from the megaprison where he’s now locked up.

Trump got him sent to CECOT and Trump can get him and all other legal immigrants out of the dangerous situation he put them in.; 4/1/25, 12:18 AM

Everybody made a LOT of money the last couple of decades with all the asset inflation. Hell, I did, and I didn't even try very hard. Did you think it would last forever?

The immigrant has been returned to his home country.; 4/1/25, 5:59 AM

@ Mark: The Market is the biggest Value Investor of them all. Short-term movements will tend towards value, the magnetic-like force of the central median, while the practiced student of the many splendored composition of value might stay consistently on the value-building side of the street.

The whole point of fighting for this country is so we can all disagree with each other (to include disagreeing over the wars themselves). On another day, we can debate over who screwed soldiers more: the politicians who started VN or the ones who wouldn't let the ARVN win at the end.

For today, though, hooah!
