Mike of Snoqualmie said...: It's supposed to be a La Nina year. That means snow's likely here in King County, WA. Usually two, maybe three storms a year. Nice to look at, often gridlock to drive on. The forecasts have really improved over the last 30 years, so surprise snow storms are very rare. It's the surprise snow storm in the midafternoon that causes gridlock around here. On a weekday. Non-covid years.; 11/24/20, 5:40 PM

Jupiter said...: 'Baris noted a statistical oddity from 2020’s election returns: “Biden underperformed Hillary Clinton in every major metro area around the country, save for Milwaukee, Detroit, Atlanta and Philadelphia.”

Barnes added that in those “big cities in swing states run by Democrats…the vote even exceeded the number of registered voters.” In the states that mattered most, so many mail-in ballots poured in for Biden from the cities that he put up record-breaking numbers and overturned state totals that looked like comfortable leads for President Trump.'

The other pity of his plan is that it's a direct tax, which is unconstitutional. But little items like the constitution don't matter to China Joe. It would also be an infringement of 2A rights.; 11/24/20, 6:39 PM

I think they have some God-level blackmail on him. Whatever it is would destroy him utterly. He'll do whatever the hell they want.

It doesn't make any practical difference, but I just think that's what's going on behind the scenes. There *was* a "John Roberts" on the flight logs to Epstein's Island, after all.

At any rate, I agree, what happens in the 3rd is only going to matter insofar as it does, or doesn't, piss Alito off even more than he already is.; 11/24/20, 6:40 PM

Hey Chuck - THIS is what a carpet bomb looks like.

IV. — The government data report and estimates support that the election result is void.

15. Petitioners have submitted the government data report of their expert Matthew Braynard.

116. — The results show that the election result is void because of illegal votes counted, legal votes not counted, counting errors and election official illegalities.

117, — The estimate of ballots requested in the name of a registered Republican by someone other than that person is 14,426.

118. — The estimate of Republican ballots that the requester returned but were not counted is 12,071.

19. The total of these two categories is 26,497—enough to change the election result.

120. — Further, the estimate of persons who voted where they did not reside is 26,673.

121. —The estimate of electors who avoided Wisconsin Voter ID laws by voting absentee as an indefinitely confined" elector and were not indefinitely confined is 96,437.

122. The estimate of out of state residents voting in Wisconsin is 6,966.

123. — The estimate of people double voting in Wisconsin is 234.

124, — The total, including all categories, is 156,807—enough to change the election result.; 11/24/20, 6:55 PM
WK said...: So apparently Biden received about 10 million more votes this year than Obama did in 2008 (and still counting!). Gives you an idea of how many Democrat racists there are out there.; 11/24/20, 6:56 PM
Qwinn said...: And here comes the motorization of goalposts again, I'm betting.

Cause it used to be: "You can't possibly find enough illegal votes to overturn the election!"

Before this is all over, it's going to become:

"Estimates don't count, it doesn't matter even if it's extrapolated from actual discovered fraud to the total population! You have to list the name and address of every single illegal vote, hundreds of thousands of them, explain in explicit detail exactly how each vote was stolen, have each one of those tens of thousands of illegal ballots individually adjudicated by a court of law, and do it NOW, before we certify in the morning."

"Otherwise, we win. Neener."

I caused to be produced 3,141,592 fraudulent ballots. Hard work, but very satisfying. Heck, it was hard to count them all! Especially when we had to make them to order at 3:30 am after the polls closed, and we figured out how many votes were needed for Comrade Biden.; 11/24/20, 7:51 PM

Achilles said...: Jenna Ellis:

“There are still legal challenges going on and [Biden] is not president-elect and the delegates have not even been selected, much less voted,” she told Newsmax TV host John Bachman. “And the next president for the next four years will be sworn in on January 20, 2021, and … the current president—President Trump—is very very much aware of that, and so he’s focused on the actual constitutional procedures and actually making sure to safeguard election integrity. He’s not out there, you know, just trying this in the court of public opinion and saying things, like Joe Biden, that ultimately do not matter.”

Just nice to hear from a much better lawyer than all of the people pretending to be one on this blog.; 11/24/20, 8:27 PM
stephen cooper said...: Biden is facing an existential challenge in the next two weeks, I think. A challenge he will almost certainly fail (sad). I mean, beyond the fact that he is senile, stupid, and has been a subservient fool since he was in his 20s --- sad stuff. This guy is no Kennedy who had such dreams to spend time in the White House with total access to recreational drugs, illegal drugs, and young women who would get carded at most bars. He is an old guy who probably suffers from, in addition to senility, most of the other aches and pains that you can see in his sad Botox-lidded eyes.

Anyway, beyond the fact that he is a human being who publicly rejoices in sin, and who is growing older and more senile every day, he has this problem ....

I doubt he thinks that he actually would have won a fair election. That is a big problem unless you are down in the mud with creeps like Brezhnev and his ilk. Assuming he knows that, does he publicly say --- I support the investigations --- or does he say --- I don't support the investigations?

Right now, there are no investigations at all except from people who are suing the courts to get access to information.
Those people are being harassed and threatened by evildoers in the media, in the political structures, and elsewhere. But those people are doing the Lord's work, and when God is on your side that is all you need ....and if those people fail to get the info on time, but succeed a little too late ---- Biden will be a stinking despised joke for as long as people care about American history.

If those people do get the info on time, Biden will not be inaugurated.

Do you see the old creep's dilemma?

These are not "legal" issues, these are "investigation of fraud issues", specifically "how fast can you investigate fraud under conditions of harassment from the swamp" issues.
Stop looking at the little shiny object of what judges will say , look at what is important ---- how much of the cheating will be exposed in time?

Now, I think it is possible that Biden won Wisconsin (not likely he won Michigan, Pennsylvania, or Georgia, though). The truth will be out there in a year, no matter what happens ----and Biden has to be asking himself right now ---- do I want to be the least respected president in the United States since that guy who was elected president of the Confederacy????

Because that is where our foul-mouthed little protege of KKK Bob Byrd is heading if he supports the blocking of investigations, and if it turns out, as it very may well happen, that those investigations were slowed down enough by the thieving creeps on Biden's side to have succeeded too late. If that happens, Biden's name will rank lower than Jefferson Davis's - at least Jefferson Davis is not considered a thief.

So Biden can say, tomorrow, I support real audits in the four states where there is the greatest suspicion that my supporters cheated and broke the law and stole the vote from old veterans and from good Americans, and gave the vote to thieves. Or he can, as the scared senile little old man he is, give in to his worse self, give in to the creep inside, and not say that.

He won't, I think. He is too far along in puppet-hood, and his puppet-masters will not allow him to save his reputation by trying to be fair.

He is old, and senile, and has never shown much love for the truth. well, at least, if he does spend some time as a despised Commander-in-Thief, he won't hand out as many STDs to innocent young women as Kennedy did.; 11/24/20, 8:52 PM

Qwinn said...: I think Chuck's overconfidence on how the 3rd will rule is born out of an absurd inability to even consider the reality that the judges who have been siding against Trump were in on the steal. They either twisted election law to enable fraud, or go to all the same parties with those jidges who did. It was utterly predictable that they would rule the way they did. None of us supporting Trump were ever counting on them. Hell, they're the ultimate defendants.

He can't even imagine that they ruled that way to cover their own asses. He thinks the only possibility is because Trump's case is weak. And he certainly never bothers looking at ANY of the hundreds of links that have been put up with evidence, he ONLY looks at anything related to the election if some lefty has assured him that a Trump supporter made a mistake he can mock.

Well, that's actually the generous interpretation. More likely is that Chuck is also in on the steal and is lying about everything. But let's pretend for a nanosecond that he's not desperately trying to cover up what he very much knows was a stolen election because he loves the result.

The 3rd doesn't have to cover up anything. The 3rd may actually consider the merits of the arguments, something not a single PA judge has even considered doing.

I think Chuck is going to be quite surprised at how the 3rd rules. But even if I'm wrong, the Wrath of Alito is still in play.

Chuck's bluster and overconfidence and insults is something he'll need to be reminded of every moment of every day for the next 4 years, I think.; 11/24/20, 9:00 PM

Mike Sylwester said...: What's The Trump Strategy In Wisconsin?

.... In Wisconsin it's relatively easy to register to vote without presenting a photo ID. HOWEVER, it's not so easy to apply for an absentee ballot without presenting a photo ID. MOREOVER, Wisconsin law explicitly states that absentee voting is a privilege, that all procedures are mandatory -- they must be followed for the purpose of avoiding fraud -- and that failure to comply invalidates the ballot in question.

With that in mind, the way you can vote absentee in Wisconsin while avoiding the normal requirement to provide a photo ID is to self-designate as being “indefinitely confined by age, physical illness, or infirmity, or is disabled for an indefinite period of time.” (We covered this in an earlier post.) Naturally, the county clerks in ultra Left Dane and Milwaukee counties, in the leadup to the election, publicly encouraged people to apply for absentee ballots for the express purpose of avoiding the photo ID requirement. The Supreme Court of Wisconsin ordered the clerks to knock it off--slapping an injunction on them. But of course the harm was already done and no other relief was requested.

SWC believes that it's that class of absentee ballots that the Wisconsin recount is targeting. The recount will seek to lower the margin, and then the absentee ballots will be targeted for those that evaded the photo ID requirement by self designating as indefinitely confined. ...; 11/24/20, 10:26 PM

Kristoferson did a really good job as James Jones, the Thin Red Line writer, in a movie that was sort of Gatbyish, but Kristofferson, back in the day, was too much of the sort of guy who naturally attracted boring women and did not know that with a little more effort he could have been in the big time. So I don;t think he could have pulled off the Gatsby role, but I could be wrong.

Whit Stillman is seriously the only living human I know who could competently direct a Fitzgerald movie. And I have seen all of his movies and he has never hired an actor who could pull off the Gatsby or the Nick characters.; 11/24/20, 11:09 PM

stephen cooper said...: yeah that is why Sarrazin would have been able to do it.

Robert Downey Jr could have done it after his jail term, but by then he was too old, and he had always been too short, not enough natural charisma ---- too much struggling, like Dustin Hoffman. Redford was at his best in buddy movies ---- when his pretty boy act could be toned down by the fact that yes, he had male friends ---- but as a leader, that vacuous look of the pretty boy was always too much to overcome in the better roles, like Gatsby.

Ralph Richardson and Donat would have been perfect, but wrong generation, wrong country.

James Woods is a little too intellectually self-centered, Walken a little too regularly off.

I really don't know enough about Hollywood to know who Whit Stillman would have hired if he had the bucks to hire whoever he wanted. Maybe someone who was famous for a year or two on some TV show? Like that guy on Grays Anatomy that all the young doctor chicks loved so much? Or maybe that guy from 13 hours?

Anyway, it does not matter now. There is zero chance that in the next couple of generations there is going to be anywhere near enough people who care if the role of Jay Gatsby is casted well or casted badly to make any kind of difference at all to the universe.; 11/24/20, 11:23 PM

Been there. In Seattle. You need to find her a mentor outside of the legal system and social services. Who will treat her like an unfortunate commodity. She need a mentor. Something who can build trust with her and work with the medications. The Good Shepard Center there in Wallingford had a WAMI office at one time. Not sure if they still do.

Find housing close to Harborview and develop a WAMI relationship with a doctor and a counselor. That is probably the best you can do short of moving the person into an isolated nature situation.; 11/25/20, 12:01 AM

Mr. Majestyk said...: I understand it is traditional for for an outgoing president to leave a letter for the incoming president in the top drawer of the Resolute desk. Assuming Cheatin' Joe is inaugurated, what should Trump's letter say? I'll offer some possibilities, but I look forward to hearing what others think.

1. "Go to hell, you cheating bastard."
2. "Hey, congrats on the steal, man. Now go to hell, you cheating bastard."
3. "You will die a horrible, demented death. On the bright side, you'll forget these words in the next 30 seconds. Did I mention you're a cheating bastard?"
4. "Let me be the first to say to you, our Cheating Bastard-in-Chief, that your cheating your way into the Oval Office is a Big Fucking Deal (you cheating bastard)."
5. "Don't crap your Depends, dude, but this job is gonna kill your cheating bastard ass."
6. "Good job on bringing back industry, Joe. But industrial cheating wasn't really what we had in mind, you cheating bastard."
7. "The most important piece of advice I can give you for this job is: never cheat. Oh, yeah, right. I almost forgot. Nevermind."
8. "When you're giving the State of the Union speech, for heaven's sake don't mention (again!) that you put together the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud operation in history to steal the election. Sure, we all know it, but still, mentioning it puts your media lapdogs in a difficult position as they try to cover and otherwise run interference for your cheating bastard ass. Instead, plagiarize some well done State of the Union speech. I'm sure no one will notice."
9. "Keep doing what got your cheating bastard ass here (I mean, besides the massive, industrial-scale cheating). So, more stories about Corn Pop and how the kids like to touch your hairy legs. More insults to average Americans, like calling them "fats" or "dog-faced pony soldier." Definitely more challenges to pushup contests. I suggest the Rose Garden as the venue. Repeatedly mumble nonsensical words and phrases, but but only if you periodically reassure us that you're not losing your mind. Indignantly atack anyone with the temerity to ask you -- the President! -- a question more difficult than what flavor ice cream you bought. And most important of all,say "C'mon, man!" as much as your cheating bastard ass can."

tim maguire said...: Qwinn said...Before this is all over, it's going to become:

"Estimates don't count, it doesn't matter even if it's extrapolated from actual discovered fraud to the total population! You have to list the name and address of every single illegal vote, hundreds of thousands of them, explain in explicit detail exactly how each vote was stolen, have each one of those tens of thousands of illegal ballots individually adjudicated by a court of law, and do it NOW, before we certify in the morning."

"Otherwise, we win. Neener."

Go fuck yourselves.

It doesn’t matter in the slightest what people on either side will say. It only matters what the judges will say and, despite your brushing off the objection to using estimates, it is a devastating critique. The bar to overturning an election is high, as it should be, and votes aren’t going to be thrown out based on estimates. For one thing, you can’t prove your sample is representative—that the fraud you have shown in some locations happened equally in every location. Sorry to say, but the thing you think it would be ridiculous to have to do is exactly what Trump’s lawyers will have to do.; 11/25/20, 5:27 AM

Qwinn said...: tim maguire:

Riiiight. So if 10 unarmed black men are shot by cops in a year, that utterly proves "systemic racism", which justifies the authorities in Democrat districts to allow riots and looting with zero law enforcement for 6 months, all during a pandemic.

But if the number of Wisconsin voters that claim to be "indefinitely confined" (COVID does not satisfy that requirement) goes up from something like 5000 to 100,000 in 2020, all because that allows people to evade voter id, and encouraged to do that by Democrats in explicit violation of the law, that doesn't prove "systemic" anything, right? We have to individually take each of those 100,000 newly minted "indefinitely confined" people to court to prove that the number of "indefinitely confined" people didn't magically explode by a factor of 20 or more in 2020? Suddenly voter fraud can't be systemic.

I already answered that. Go fuck yourself. War.; 11/25/20, 6:23 AM
