It’s been reported the Haitians in Springfield have formed a Ducks Unlimited chapter. They jumped at the chance when they saw the word Unlimited.

Deep State Reformer म्हणाले...

While trying to solidify my thoughts on the likelihood of another American civil war I found John Mearsheimer’s essay The Big Question’: Can Trump Beat Back the ‘Deep State’? The tl; dr answer is “No”. Or not bloody likely anyhow. Read Mearsheimer's whole argument if you care to at the link below. All of us boomers and those (mainly WP) in decently paying & benefited corporate and bureaucratic sinecures are in for some very BIG lifestyle changes over the next decade IOW. Untethered by anything like an effective political opposition to stop them and in full Obama-style governance mode the thus empowered Wreckers Party are gonna give us what they voted for, and good & hard too. Perhaps another civil war or just a slow steady collapse are about it as America’s alternatives.

https://www.nj.com/politics/2024/09/jd-vance-offers-proof-of-pet-eating-but-its-proven-false-with-1-phone-call.html

“The Vance campaign provided the Wall Street Journal with a police report to prove their claims about cat-eating Haitians in Springfield. The WSJ spoke to the woman who filed it, who said she later found her cat alive and well in her basement. She also apologized to her Haitian neighbors.” Justin Baragona posted to X with a link to a story in The Wall Street Journal.

Vance was asked in an interview whether he knew the claims were false.

“If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do,” Vance said, quickly clarifying that he “created the focus that allowed the media to talk about this story and the suffering caused by policies.”

“A false claim circulating on social media that Kamala Harris was involved in an alleged hit-and-run in San Francisco in 2011 is the work of a covert Russian disinformation operation, according to new research by Microsoft.

Researchers found that the group created a video, paid an actor to appear as the alleged victim, and spread the claim through a fake website for a nonexistent San Francisco news outlet named KBSF-TV. The Russian group responsible, which Microsoft dubs Storm-1516, is described as a Kremlin-aligned troll farm.

In total, it is estimated the video has been viewed more than 2.7m times.

“Many entities within the pro-Russian ecosystem advanced the video and its claims,” said Microsoft’s Threat Analysis Center.

Microsoft said the discovery was a sign of Russia ramping up its foreign influence efforts ahead of the 5 November presidential election. A spokesperson for the Russian embassy in Washington did not respond to a request for comment from Reuters.”

Harris is leading Trump, and it may be a landslide. “In your gut you know he’s nuts.”

Thomas Miller, a data scientist at Northwestern University is back in the arena for the first time this election cycle since his spectacular calls in the 2020 election. He’s using a similar system to handicap the supposedly super-tight presidential election that will be decided just 48 days hence; it’s based on numbers-crunching that’s arguably a lot more scientific than the voter surveys almost always cited to chart the contest’s trajectory, and second, he achieved pinpoint accuracy four years ago, missing Biden’s win in the electoral college by just 12 votes, tagging every state for the correct column save Georgia.

Miller’s approach vastly differs from most political prognostications by relying on prices established by Americans wagering their dollars on the candidates not polls. He states that while polls tell you about the past, the odds on the betting sites map the future.

As he did in 2020, Miller relies upon the largest U.S. political betting site, Predictit. “You have tens of thousands of people betting on the site at all times of the day,” he says. “Financial markets are forward-looking and incorporate information instantaneously, and Predictit provides the same benefits,” says Miller.

The onstage battle in Philadelphia wrecked the 78-year-old former POTUS. Within a day after the candidates left the podium, Harris had jumped to over 400 electoral votes. The Harris endorsement from Taylor Swift secured the day of the debate and probably helped sink Trump’s chances.

If the situation persists, Trump faces an absolute rout. “It would be somewhere between the defeats of Barry Goldwater by Lyndon Johnson in 1964, and Bob Dole by Bill Clinton in 1996,” says Miller. “We’re talking about a blowout where Harris gets over 400 electoral votes and wins Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and every other swing state.”

Leland, sweetie, I’m just an elderly grandmother from a deep red county in Wisconsin. American taxpayers had to spend far more money to deal with Trump’s Big Lie that the election was stolen. How many more millions are being spent to house all those dupes who followed Trump’s direction to March down to the Capital to stop the certification of the election and to “fight like hell” rioting? Where is the remorse for putting our country through an insurrection attempt?

Mark म्हणाले...

Wait until you hear Vance called Trump Hitler back in 2016.

Of course, he got disinvited to dinners and called nuts by people that can't handle the truth, so now he's saying there's a chance for Harris.

As Jim said, there was no insurrection, unless you mean when Nancy Pelosi told the Joint Chiefs of Staff, twice once before Jan. 6th and again on Jan 6th, to ignore the orders of the Commander in Chief, such that JCS had to issue a statement explaining they wouldn't comply with the Speaker of the House. Where is Nancy Pelosi's remorse for usurping the President's Constitutional power? We finally saw Nancy's remorse about not accepting Trump's offer for National Guard protection on Jan. 6th, but she tried to hide it.

Inga, you do remember Saddam used to charge the families for the bullets he used to execute their family members?

Inga म्हणाले...

Leland, sweetie, my question “Who is they?” is asking what “entity” is the “they” that tcrosse is referring to. Or were you referring to the actual assassins Tcrosse when you said “they”? Leland, I’m well aware that there were two separate assassination attempts, done by two different people because one of them is dead.

Inga म्हणाले...

That dirty dog. I wonder if Saddam’s family were charged for the rope he was hung with and the wages of the hangmen.

Who is the entity then Inga? You, not tcrosse, are now implying there is one.

I think this tells you all you need to know about JD Vance the fool.

"A Vance spokesperson on Tuesday provided The Wall Street Journal with a police report in which a resident had claimed her pet might have been taken by Haitian neighbors. But when a reporter went to Anna Kilgore’s house Tuesday evening, she said her cat Miss Sassy, which went missing in late August, had actually returned a few days later—found safe in her own basement."

8,000 Haitians in Springfield have enrolled in Medicaid in the last few years. Enrollment in Medicaid requires that you be at the Federal poverty level, have less than $2,000 in savings, don't own a house. In short, you are poor. So if almost half of Springfield's 20,000 Haitians are in Medicaid, almost half are poor by definition. Bang goes the story that "Haitians flock to Springfield for good paying jobs."
The story is from Reuters cited by Newsmax, Is it true? Maybe they ARE hungry in Springfield.

You randomly resample the data you have to get more fake data that has the same distribution as the real data. and think you know more because your " sample size " is larger. if you create a million resamples without replacement you can get the really extreme outlier cases you want to publicise. but if you are a statistician just calculate the confidence intervals from the original data and you have the whole story without paying for all the electricity for your computer.

Josephbleau म्हणाले...

Yes, the point is not to give them jobs, but to make large payments to pop up organizations favored by politicians who are given millions to provide food and housing, and pay the organization management $300,000 per year salaries and skim 10 percent in contract kickbacks.

Iman म्हणाले...

Trump’s appearance worked well. He did repeat himself a few times, YT he was sharp, focused and - I thought - damn funny. The contrast between Trump and Harris is striking, as Trump is relaxed, in good humor and witty, while Harris comes across as stale and inebriated.

"Jill Biden is going to honor the cast members of the TV show ‘The West Wing’ at the White House on Friday to celebrate the 25 year anniversary of the show.

This is the same administration that couldn’t even be bothered to honor Gold Star families by showing up at Arlington National Cemetery this summer and then had the nerve to criticize Trump for doing so.

This tells you everything you need to know about the Democrats. This is who they really care about. This is who they want approval from."

While the Neo-Nazi Blood Tribe marched and threatened black legalized Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Trump and Vance continued the outrageous lie that Haitians are "pet-eating illegals."

Back at the ranch, God-anointed Speaker, "Moses" Johnson (who God said would calm the roiling sea), is taking orders from MAL, not Heaven, when he proposes to keep the government open only if Democrats agree to swallow a poison pill that makes it harder to register to vote. But all Johnson has proved is that he doesn't have the votes to pass such a weird bill this late in the game.

So the Republican grand strategy is to lie that Democrats are impairing the inoperable GOP-led House when the election happens during a government shutdown - a huge gamble even with help from the Russians.
