Beautiful , as always. Expect to see the dark and spooky, leaveless trees shots again this winter.
Once in a while, I interact with the solar, credit card, cable tv, callers who always call from India. Others here probably do the same thing, for fun, Lead 'em on for 20 minutes or so, then put them on hold while "I go get my credit card". In the midst of an Energy Cost Reduction and Rebate call, had a great idea. Every few minutes, ask the man to please speak louder due to bad hearing. After three requests, he was screaming his sales pitch to me. Had him on speaker. Mildly entertaining, looking forward to next call
How stupid is Liz Cheney? She endorsed the D in TX senate race. She looks like an embittered former R now. Would have been smart for her to endorse Cruz saying he is an R and she is an R, and keep pressing her case against DJT. That is a Liz own goal.
There is massive infighting among the Maga influencers, everyone accusing everyone else of taking Russian money, lol. They should just admit they all did or would’ve if they had been rabid enough. It’s dribbling out more and more everyday. Big cat fight now between Nikki Haley and Lauren Chen on X, need more popcorn.
Well, well well ... what have we here? Turns out Justice Juan Merchan’s corrupt daughter is on Kamala Harris' payroll, according to Federal Election reports which show that the young Merchan is getting hundreds of thousands of dollars in thinly-disguised payoffs laundered through the campaign.
These people are going to have very, very short careers if Trump ever gets the authority that Barack Obama used to kill American citizens without trial.
Love the first one. It reminds me of the Mediterranean one night in Israel. Update on lawn signs: still no sign of any Harris/Walz at the neighbors or down the road. On the way to town this morning I saw that the lawn that used to have a Kennedy sign now has a Trump sign instead.
Dixcus and the far-right media are employing a double standard here. Federal Judge Aileen Cannon, ignored SCOTUS rulings to the contrary when she dismissed the classified documents case against Trump. Trump appointed her to the 2nd District Federal Court in Florida.
On the other hand, Judge Merchan has moved the sentencing of our jury-convicted felonious ex-president to a date after the election. Merchan's daughter had nothing to do with the jury trial.
Boeing’s Starlink capsule made it back to earth safely, flying in unmanned mode because of concerns over its safety. NASA has scheduled a press conference for 1:30 AM Eastern. Wait, whaaaat? Why hold a press conference at O dark thirty? Something weird goin’ on.
Achilles is right. Give it up Inga. The Russians LOVE Kamala. They LOVED Joe Biden. They are doing whatever they want under this administration, because who is going to stop them?? Inga has Trump and Russia tattooed on her brain. Please get help. You are sounding more and more desperate everyday.
Clandestine @WarClandestine Warmongering neocon, Dick Cheney, endorses Kamala Harris.
This is further confirmation that the old GOP is dead, and Trump has taken over the Republican Party.
-The Cheneys -The Bushes -The McCains -Paul Ryan -Mitt Romney
The old GOP establishment have been booted out of MAGA, and remain loyal to their uniparty cohorts on the other side of the aisle, hence why they all support Kamala.
This proves that a Deep State/Uniparty exists, and confirms that Trump/MAGA are the opposition to this entity.
Dick Cheney endorsing Kamala is a MASSIVE positive for Trump. And it’s also hilarious, because before Trump came along, Dick Cheney was arguably the guy they hated most. They don’t event realize what they have become.
"INTERVIEWER: And when did when did you resign the Democratic Party?
DERSHOWITZ: Well, gradually over time. I think a lot of things pushed me in that direction. Kamala Harris' failure to comply with their constitutional obligation to preside over the Senate and the House Joint Sessions for Netanyahu pushed me a lot over that. And what Joe Biden said pushed me over that. But I think the thing that really pushed me is how the Democrats conducted their convention.
I cannot be associated with the party that features as its speakers, AOC, Sharpton, Liz Warren and Bernie Sanders, that's not my party."
Elise Stefanik @EliseStefanik 🚨🚨🚨 Today I filed a new judicial ethics complaint with the New York State Commission because new evidence on Kamala Harris’ most recent FEC filing shows she hired and paid Acting Justice Juan Merchan’s adult daughter’s company. This is a clear violation of the New York State Judicial Code of Conduct which dictates that a judge must recuse from a case where a relative up to and including the sixth degree has a financial interest in the outcome of the case.
All Trump had to do was start a war to capture the coveted Dick Cheney endorsement. It didn’t even have to be a large war. Attack Belize or Costa Rica or something. Drag it out for a decade or two and Cheney would have been on the campaign trail with Trump.
Hazel Appleyard @HazelAppleyard_ · Sep 3 Yes, that’s right. If your 3yo daughter likes white princesses, she’s rac!st. If she likes non-white princesses, she’s rac!st.
With illegal immigrant gangs taking over inner cities, a fading president has been advised to name a “Gang Czar”. Woke Salad Kammie, seeing the handwriting on the wall ( a little Nebuchadnezzar lingo here), declined the offer in advance.
These illegal immigrant gangs pose a real threat to the Harris campaign. It’s no wonder Dems like Polis are playing it down. By ignoring it, though, they’re likely creating a vigilante response in the affected communities. This would be further proof our government is useless in protecting us right now.
Kamala Harris is promising to "take action" to stop school shootings and protect children. The media have refused to ask her why she hasn't ALREADY taken this action, since she's been in power for 3.5 years.
Also, she won't say what action she will take if we elect her. We have to elect her to find out. The media are reporting this as "news."
Tulsi Gabbard ought to publish her flight schedule as the safest for people to fly on, since they are guaranteed to have at least three sky marshals on board.
Streaming the Packers on the Peacock service is one of the dumbest moves Goodell has made. Last i checked an NFL fan needs four streaming services and cable to watch all the games this season when they built the league on over-the-air free TV, which can still be had in most markets with an antenna (though now the signals are digital).
I would have thought he’d reach further back than that. The Democratic Party has been leaving decent sensible people for decades. Dershowitz has been a pariah on the left for years. If his only complaint is what they’re doing right now, then why doesn’t he stick around and try to fix it?
How quickly Democrats are willing to toss their faith, their heritage away in the name of Democrat optics. Liz is still claiming native but not a peep from the tribal elders- a okay with them. The prominent jewish families still throwing money at Harvard and Columbia without an ounce of complaint. It’s pathetic. Don't count on support next time you need it- fuck. right. off…
Aurora has let it fester since last November when the landlord and property manager notified the city. Only after a tenant was stabbed by gang members for not paying protection did cops get involved. But they have not rid the property of the gang yet either. Because they are illegal aliens parolled by the Biden-Harris plan. Americans are living in terror to keep an inconvenient fact from leaking out about Harris.
This one is easy. Because Starlink became a separate space craft, flight controllers, engineers, and mission managers had to be on console to prepare for departure and return home. They stayed on console for all those hours and for about 2 hours after landing while the vehicle was safed. This was happening on a Friday night. Might as well hold the post mission/daily mission Press Conference right after, instead of going home for a few hours sleep on Saturday to return for a standard 1 or 2 pm Press Conference. It is those engineers on console that create the slides for the Press Conference anyway. Everybody just wants to go home. Trust me, I’ve been there.
Here's something I learned today. AOC before her election was a broke ass bartender.AOC makes 155,000$ a year. She was elected in 2019. Her net worth is 29 million. What?!
"Gov. Josh Shapiro, D-Pa., cautioned hosts of ABC's "The View" on Friday that former President Trump will prove a worthy opponent for Vice President Kamala Harris in their upcoming presidential debate.
Trump and Harris will face off in Philadelphia for the first time on Tuesday, in a debate moderated by ABC News. While Harris taking on the mantle of the Democratic Party’s standard-bearer has indeed shaken up the race, Shapiro told hosts on Friday that doesn’t change Trump’s skillset, one that even his critics should acknowledge.
"Listen, as much as we want to criticize Donald Trump — he’s a liar, he’s all these things … People know Donald Trump. He is a skilled debater. He is a guy who is willing to say anything at any time just to get through a question, and he’s a showman, he’s been on TV before," Shapiro said. "So don’t underestimate Donald Trump."
Gov. Shapiro hews to the party line, calling DJT a liar. Look what comes next, from Alyssa Farah Griggin:
"He added further, "Now, I’ve known Kamala Harris 20 years. She is tough as nails. She’s a prosecutor. She’ll be prepared, as was said before. She’ll be ready to go. But this is going to be a tough debate."
Earlier in the same segment, co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin noted, "Kamala Harris is running a very different campaign than she did when she ran in the 2020 cycle. She’s moving to the center on a number of issues. She’s walked back previously held positions like calling for banning fracking."
Or maybe he's just playing the odds, with eight years of evidence to go on.
BTW, it's not that Trump claims everything is rigged against him - he only says that about things Democrats control. Interestingly, the same seems to be true of poor Vice President Harris, who has not been appropriately positioned for success by her Democrat colleagues.
Blogger is driving me nuts this morning - I tried about eight times to post this as a threaded comment under Rich's "imagine" comment above. The site alternated between simply ignoring my repeated stabbing at the Publish button and telling me that the comment failed to publish. So I scrolled down to publish THIS comment to the POST, and it published my previous comment instead. And now it won't publish this comment threaded under my own comment so here we go again...
Let's try this again and see if you can answer. Rich. How are price controlsd going to help the American consumer? What is taxing unrealized gains going to do to the market place?
Do a fact check on wherever you read that, as there's no actual evidence to claim that net worth. Someone claims Forbes said she was worth $29 mil, but Forbes didn't publish that.
I’ve resigned myself to the fact that there will be certain games this year that I will not be able to watch. And by the way, that game in Brazil was a travesty.
The food fight comes later. The capsule will go to the post processing facility. All the anomalies discovered on orbit that can be assessed will be. Keep in mind, most of the anomalies were on the Service Module, which burned up on its own during entry. Still, lots to review about how safe the capsule actually was for return and how well the heatshield performed, since it was a problem last time. None of that could have been assessed last night, nor really this morning. The ship had to get the capsule back onshore. A lift was needed to put the capsule on some transport. They'll probably take it back Downey or Huntington Beach for post flight analysis, as it is a Boeing made vehicle. Maybe they'll fly it back to KSC since it was a NASA sanctioned flight. Either way, it won't be fully analyzed until it gets back to an appropriate hanger. That's when all the problems will get listed and the food fight begins. Boeing will try to down play and dismiss some of the anomalies as not a real issue, such as the audio pinging noise. And some other ones they'll claim they already solved, such as the autonomous flight software that didn't work last mission, wasn't initially installed this mission, but they reinstalled it to get the vehicle home and "see, it worked!" Maybe, or maybe just good enough like it did last mission. Once the list is finalized, the engineering work will begin to resolve all the issues before another flight is allowed (think FAA grounding SpaceX until they could explain why the last booster fell down). All those issues will need to be resolved before flight rational for any new flight. And let's face it, does anyone, Boeing, NASA, the Astronauts, the public? Does anyone want to see Starliner fly again? Even as a point of pride for Boeing, the next flight will simply be another Crew Flight Test and a reminder that it is the third attempt, and if it goes off perfectly, no one will care and only will remember all the failures. It's not like Boeing is going to make Starliner a commercial space craft, like Dragon.
When asked what specific policies he would advance to make child care more affordable, here is Trump’s response, in full:
“Well, I would do that and we’re sitting down, you know, I was, somebody, we had Sen. Marco Rubio and my daughter Ivanka was so impactful on that issue. It’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about that because the child care is, child care is you couldn’t, you know there’s something you have to have it in this country, you have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to — but they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us. But they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s going to take care — I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time. Coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country. Because I have to stay with child care, I want to stay with child care but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth. But growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just told you about. We’re going to be taking in trillions of dollars, and as much as child care is talked about as being expensive, it’s relatively speaking not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we’re going to be taking in. We’re going to make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people, and then we’ll worry about the rest of the world. Let’s help other people. But we’re going to take care of our country first. This is about America first, it’s about ‘Make America Great Again,’ we have to do it because right now we’re a failing nation. So we’ll take care of it.”
But today, according to the Council of Economic Advisers, import duties bring in only around 2 percent of the federal government’s total revenues. And of course, as the CEA reports and Trumps's last tariff venture showed, much higher import levies “spark retaliatory tariffs that reduce U.S. exports and subsequently induce transfers of collected duties to impacted U.S. businesses.” This means that whenever tariffs are increased, American consumer prices rise, bringing inflation.
In my opinion, the question of whether Tenet Media, Pool and Johnson, etc, knew they were being used as Russian agents is less interesting than considering why they spent so much time before this deal came into place saying things the Russian government would want to amplify.
If the indictment says they didn’t know, they probably didn’t know, they just didn’t have to change anything about what they did to be worth ten million dollars to a hostile foreign power.
Tell us, precisely, what it is the DOJ claims were the issues the russkis wanted amplified.
Then tell us why the ONLY charges are "conspiracy" instead of a detailed and explictly laid out criminal course of events.
Then tell us why the DOJ indicted russkis with UNSEALED records which telegraphs to the russkis never to come to the US or any nation where they can be extradited to the US!
How convenient!
And why isnt Loren Chen in jail awaiting trial?
We all know why.
This is a mirror image deep stater op similar to their BS Concord Management and Consulting "charges" in thir 2016/17/18 russia collusion hoax 1.0.
But surprise surprise! Do you remember what happened with that one?!
You should. Concord Management called the DOJ's bluff and fought the DOJ in court and obliterated them and their conspiracy lies.
Obliterated. And the best part? Concord Managements lawers were appropriately sarcastic and demeaning to Mueller and Mr Reversed 9-0 multiple times Weissman!
This means that whenever tariffs are increased, American consumer prices rise, bringing inflation. No tariff increase during Biden administration. Dollar store up now a buck and a quarter thanks to Bidenomics.. Thanks a million(and a quarter mil.)

Actually, 1 dark thirty, but I wondered about that too.
Are Woeing reps going to be there, too? Maybe NASA is anticipating a food fight.
Not a dollop of concern over your fellow citizens losing their jobs to the wave coming over our open borders, lefties? Well, color me unsurprised.
Inga is one of the dumbest people on the planet.
Falling for the first Russian Collusion Hoax wasn't humiliating enough. Now she is falling for Russian Collusion 2.0.

Still, lots to review about how safe the capsule actually was for return and how well the heatshield performed, since it was a problem last time. None of that could have been assessed last night, nor really this morning.
The ship had to get the capsule back onshore. A lift was needed to put the capsule on some transport. They'll probably take it back Downey or Huntington Beach for post flight analysis, as it is a Boeing made vehicle. Maybe they'll fly it back to KSC since it was a NASA sanctioned flight. Either way, it won't be fully analyzed until it gets back to an appropriate hanger. That's when all the problems will get listed and the food fight begins.
Boeing will try to down play and dismiss some of the anomalies as not a real issue, such as the audio pinging noise. And some other ones they'll claim they already solved, such as the autonomous flight software that didn't work last mission, wasn't initially installed this mission, but they reinstalled it to get the vehicle home and "see, it worked!" Maybe, or maybe just good enough like it did last mission. Once the list is finalized, the engineering work will begin to resolve all the issues before another flight is allowed (think FAA grounding SpaceX until they could explain why the last booster fell down).
All those issues will need to be resolved before flight rational for any new flight. And let's face it, does anyone, Boeing, NASA, the Astronauts, the public? Does anyone want to see Starliner fly again? Even as a point of pride for Boeing, the next flight will simply be another Crew Flight Test and a reminder that it is the third attempt, and if it goes off perfectly, no one will care and only will remember all the failures. It's not like Boeing is going to make Starliner a commercial space craft, like Dragon.
Well, Inga, Putin has said publicly he'd like to see Harris win.
Mark. My bad Mark.
See what I did there. I didn't run away, but admitted my mistake. There's a lesson in there.
I said the same thing to my Mom when we saw him this AM on TV.
When asked what specific policies he would advance to make child care more affordable, here is Trump’s response, in full:
“Well, I would do that and we’re sitting down, you know, I was, somebody, we had Sen. Marco Rubio and my daughter Ivanka was so impactful on that issue. It’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about that because the child care is, child care is you couldn’t, you know there’s something you have to have it in this country, you have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to — but they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us. But they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s going to take care — I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time. Coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country. Because I have to stay with child care, I want to stay with child care but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about, including growth. But growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just told you about. We’re going to be taking in trillions of dollars, and as much as child care is talked about as being expensive, it’s relatively speaking not very expensive compared to the kind of numbers we’re going to be taking in. We’re going to make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people, and then we’ll worry about the rest of the world. Let’s help other people. But we’re going to take care of our country first. This is about America first, it’s about ‘Make America Great Again,’ we have to do it because right now we’re a failing nation. So we’ll take care of it.”
But today, according to the Council of Economic Advisers, import duties bring in only around 2 percent of the federal government’s total revenues. And of course, as the CEA reports and Trumps's last tariff venture showed, much higher import levies “spark retaliatory tariffs that reduce U.S. exports and subsequently induce transfers of collected duties to impacted U.S. businesses.” This means that whenever tariffs are increased, American consumer prices rise, bringing inflation.
? Who’s on first?
In my opinion, the question of whether Tenet Media, Pool and Johnson, etc, knew they were being used as Russian agents is less interesting than considering why they spent so much time before this deal came into place saying things the Russian government would want to amplify.
If the indictment says they didn’t know, they probably didn’t know, they just didn’t have to change anything about what they did to be worth ten million dollars to a hostile foreign power.
'My bad' is neither an authentic admission of guilt or a correction.
That's such weak sauce it's not even a sauce.
LOL
Tell us, precisely, what it is the DOJ claims were the issues the russkis wanted amplified.
Then tell us why the ONLY charges are "conspiracy" instead of a detailed and explictly laid out criminal course of events.
Then tell us why the DOJ indicted russkis with UNSEALED records which telegraphs to the russkis never to come to the US or any nation where they can be extradited to the US!
How convenient!
And why isnt Loren Chen in jail awaiting trial?
We all know why.
This is a mirror image deep stater op similar to their BS Concord Management and Consulting "charges" in thir 2016/17/18 russia collusion hoax 1.0.
But surprise surprise! Do you remember what happened with that one?!
You should. Concord Management called the DOJ's bluff and fought the DOJ in court and obliterated them and their conspiracy lies.
Obliterated. And the best part? Concord Managements lawers were appropriately sarcastic and demeaning to Mueller and Mr Reversed 9-0 multiple times Weissman!
"Still, lots to review about how safe the capsule actually was for return and how well the heatshield performed, since it was a problem last time."
On this point, I believe the heat shield problem is on Artemus, not Starliner.

They have to destroy the environment in order to save it.
This means that whenever tariffs are increased, American consumer prices rise, bringing inflation.
No tariff increase during Biden administration. Dollar store up now a buck and a quarter thanks to Bidenomics.. Thanks a million(and a quarter mil.)
Rich. You don't know or you don't want to answer? Not a good Harris recomendation.
