At the Coot Café...

... you can talk all night.

No sunrise photo today, but we were out there on the shore of Lake Mendota at 1:48, watching the coots.

Where are the coots? All I see are some waterfowl.

ABCNews has called Pennsylvania for Harris a full week BEFORE the election.

She got 3,293,712 votes to Trump's 2,997,793 with 100% of precincts reporting.

They came out later and tried to call this a "mistake." And yes, it was a mistake to release the fake election results a week BEFORE the election.

ABC you had ONE JOB.

What’s with Biden biting a baby’s leg?

With all the campaign ads and Medicare open enrollment, a guy can’t find a decent Christmas cologne commercial

How could ANY PARENT allow their kid within a mile of "Creepy" Joe Biden?

Dixcus said...

Dude literally looks for ANY CHANCE he can to put his mouth on children.

Big Mike said...

Biden’s “garbage” comment seems to have taken on a life all its own. It’s almost like a preference cascade — normal people everywhere seem to be thinking and saying the same thing. “Yeah, that’s what these bitches and sons of bitches really do think about us.” To paraphrase Sally Field, “You hate us, you really, hate us.” (All the while accusing us of being the “haters.”)

Now they’re gonna have to make up new results- with only a few weeks left!!!

Mumford and Sons singing up a storm at the Harris rally tonight in Madison!

Inga said...

Oh relax, you’re not garbage, just a bit Grouchy.

Biden’s “garbage” comment seems to have taken on a life all its own.

Nope. I have it on good authority not only doesn't this hurt the Harris campaign, but may even help her by adding new voters.

Dixcus said...

Yeah, I read that on MSNBC, too. Also they claim that putting your mouth on kids you don't know really isn't WEIRD, according to Jeffrey Epstein Island visitor Bill Clinton.

Iman said...

Beyond 9 months is “well-done” in Biden’s book.

Dixcus said...

Kenya's Barack Obama: How'd everything get so divisive?"

Scranton's Joe Biden: "You're all a bunch of garbage Nazi deplorables."

Big Mike said...

Well Jim, we shall see, won't we.

Jersey Fled said...

Damn! He just stuck another baby’s foot in his mouth.

This is really sick.

Josephbleau said...

Coots have red eyes and white beaks. Who among us have been not thus?

Coots and Cormorants. Lake birds. Divers, eat the fish birds, so they do.

Im so sad that lake birds eat fish and I want fish to make rockets to kill birds.






Dixcus said...

This is naked Biden pedophilia and foot fetishism and the networks are filming it. They need to have their broadcast licenses revoked.

CNN, 3 business days before the election:

Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday distanced herself from President Joe Biden’s comments that seemingly referred to Donald Trump’s supporters as “garbage,” setting off a political firestorm a week before Election Day.

Harris told reporters that she “strongly” disagrees with criticizing people based on who they vote for.

But of course when Hillary Clinton called Trump voters "deplorable and irredeemable" Harris agreed with her and never spoke out to "distance herself" from Clinton's remarks.

Point being you have a low-IQ presidential candidate backpedaling 3 days before the election and you have a smart, engaged leader driving a Garbage Truck to his massive rallies while everybody laughs at Democrats.

Trump's campaign finally showed him the real Pennsylvania internals.

"Pennsylvania is cheating, and getting caught, at large scale levels rarely seen before. REPORT CHEATING TO AUTHORITIES. Law Enforcement must act, NOW!" ~@realDonaldTrump

Jim at said...

Well Jim, we shall see, won't we.

Might want to tune up your /sarc meter.

So you *can* hold a rally at the Ellipse without thousands of your supporters being charged with federal crimes.

Who knew?

Would You Like Fascism With That Hat said...

Biden calling Trump supporters “garbage” in a webcam interview is a moral outrage. Here’s why Trump calling Harris supporters “garbage” at a rally is not.

Would You Like Fascism With That Hat said...

"... calling Harris supporters 'vermin,' 'scum,' 'evil,' 'the enemy within,' and 'garbage' is not." 😏

wildswan said...

Those birds don't seem to know there's an election on - I wish I didn't. At this point in every election the suspense becomes overwhelming for me. I can't read any more. No one knows. Trump was extremely amusing with his McDonald's/ Garbage man stunts in response to being called a Nazi. I thought of going into the poll today wearing a garbage bag poncho but I chickened out. I couldn't work out who the people around me were voting for. It was all Wisconsin nice but it made the suspense worse. There's nothing to think about and nothing more to do but wait. What about the illegals voting - who is polling them on how many have voted?

Dixcus said...

It's pretty funny watching the employees of the Washington Post trashing the owner of the newspaper by printing horrible Op-Eds about him and then trying to figure out why people don't TRUST. THE. MEDIA.

If Jeff Bezos doesn't fire these people, then what is the POINT of owning one of the nation's most prestigious newspapers?

STOMP. THE. ROACHES. JEFF.

Dixcus said...

Would the last person left in the White House please tell Joe Biden to quit putting children's body parts in his mouth.

Mary Beth said...

"with only a few weeks left!!!"

Less than one week left!!!

Mason G said...

They might want to remind Kamala, too.

Well, maybe not children, but still...

Levi Starks said...

Dodgers win the series.
That was an amazing game

Rt41Rebel said...

Election 2024 Pro-tip: For an early prediction on election night, watch what happens in Florida. Since 2000, Florida posts results very early and accurately. Recent Florida polls have Trump up about 9%. If Trump wins Florida by 15% or more, it’s gonna be a landslide, if Trump wins Florida by 7% or less, Harris will have a good night.

rehajm said...

‘One week left’ until election day but how many days until we see a result? Days? Weeks?

wendybar said...

Well, when most of her supporters are the Main Stream Media, the whores of the Hill who are in one big party that the rest of us don't belong to, women who want to murder the babies, and illegal aliens....he is correct.

wendybar said...

THIS comic pretty much sums up Kamala's campaign....

And then LA burned the city down.

You can't hate the lying Progressive media or the Progressive party enough......They hate us, and love and defend their murderous illegal gang members they imported into the country willingly.

The Chicago shooting of a Jewish man is Democratic politics in one tragic act. Biden-Harris open the border, illegal immigrant comes in. Illegal immigrant shoots Jewish man and yells "Allahu Akbar." Chicago's mayor and police say they can't discern a motive.

@BillMelugin_
NEW: Per four law enforcement sources to me & colleague @GriffJenkins, the suspect charged w/ shooting a Jewish man as he walked to a Chicago synagogue on Saturday is a Mauritanian illegal alien who was caught & released in Border Patrol’s San Diego, CA sector in March 2023
Police say 22-year-old Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi walked up to the Orthodox Jew, who was wearing traditional Jewish clothing, and shot him multiple times without saying a word. He then got into a shootout with responding officers, and he was shot himself. He is now charged with 14 felonies.

Fox is told that sanctuary policies in Cook County, IL prohibit local authorities from cooperating with ICE on a detainer request on Abdallahi.

Local Jewish leaders believe this was a targeted hate crime, but no hate crime charges have been filed as of now.
The victim survived the attack.

More details as they come…

Yes, the Democrats let the KKK do it.

Cool. The Band that has only Progressives because the one guy who spoke his mind had to leave the group because he didn't think like a lemming, like the rest of them.

On X: The office of Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold uploaded a spreadsheet to its website that contained a concealed tab with passwords for voting systems.

"Individuals who accessed the Excel file from the website could easily reveal the hidden tab's contents by selecting "unhide."

In response to inquiries from local news, a representative from the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office stated that they are addressing the issue.

The passwords exposed in the hidden tab are BIOS passwords, which provide below-root access to the system. They are a component of the security measures for Colorado's voting equipment.

These passwords are essential for adjusting the system configurations and anyone with access could use them to inject nefarious scripts after disabling security. Insane.

I think they have an Early Bird special.

Britain’s deluded politics are downstream of a deluded public. This country simply doesn’t realise how poor it is; the gulf between public expectations of the state and the state’s means of financing itself has widened to dangerous levels. People on relatively high incomes don’t feel rich and therefore assume that there are plenty of actually rich people who could be squeezed to pay for stuff. Entitlement spending, in particular, is eating British democracy alive. Council budgets are increasingly consumed by social care and special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) spending, with services cut to the bone. Meanwhile in Westminster, successive governments continually forestall capital investment to avoid tinkering with absurd commitments such as the pension triple lock.
- Henry Hill. Change “Britain” to the “US” and adjust some minor country-specific details, and it holds as well.

Thanks Wendy.
Only a few years ago crimes like this were unheard of on the north side. And by north side I mean anything nort6h of Congress st.

Would You Like Fascism With That Hat said...

Trump’s just out on the tarmac having someone drive him around in circles. Why do I feel like this will become the defining meme for his entire campaign?

Hassayamper said...

"Tests" going awry like this happen in every election, and the putative winner is ALWAYS the Democrat.

I don't think it's any kind of a conspiracy, or necessarily has any relation to reality at all. It's a magic rabbit's foot for the mental health of the hyperventilating female interns in the art departments of the various TV stations, whose politics start and end with killing their own babies.

Iman said...

Biden’s just keeping Abortion in teh News!

And that’s the rest of the story. Good day!

Iman said...

Minus the guy with principles.

Hassayamper said...

I think it is more likely he is referring to the 2500 forged voter registration forms in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, as announced at a press conference earlier this week by the county DA. They were reportedly submitted by a Democrat vote-harvesting outfit from Arizona, which is now being investigated for doing the same thing in at least two other Pennsylvania counties.

Where did you hear that?? Crying Morning Mika on MSDNC??

Joe campaigned from his basement and got more votes than Hussein. Why on earth would you EVER believe that?? Gullible, and foolish is a dumb way to go through life.

I have a question. How many celebities have left the US after P-Diddy was arrested?

walter said...

Again, go back to Dark Brandon speech. I know..supposed to forget it.

walter said...

Perfect. Cancel culture set to music.

walter said...

Harris called college age adults stupid, and they will vote for her.

walter said...

If someone goes to polling place wearing a garbage bag, will that be deemed illegal political expression?

walter said...

Harris giving her speech at the WH with sirens going so meta.

Original Mike said...

LOL. I hope it's raining election day. It would give me an excuse to do so.
