Sunrise — 7:09.

This morning's heavy fog was hard to capture:

I returned to the same vantage point at 3 p.m. and took a non-sunrise photograph:

The darkroom way to do fog is more the enlarger (distance) while exposing the print.

Dixcus said...

They've already let Trump's third assassination attempt dude out of jail on bail. Imagine if this guy makes a successful kill of Trump after being let go so quickly and on an only $5,000 bail.

I have one question about the Walz pheasant hunting video. Where's the dog? Any pheasant hunter knows, no dog no pheasant. Especially in waist high brush.

Inga said...

And he’s a Republican, just thought I’d mention it…

tim in vermont said...

I think that there is some "fog of war" going on with this one.

tim in vermont said...

Not just "fog of war" but deliberate withholding of relevant facts because the whole story might get fewer clicks.

Anybody blame climate change for so many ass***nation attempts on Trump?

Inga said...

It’s being reported on X that he’s a “good friend” of Michael Flynn. It’s getting stronger and stranger.

Michael K said...

I agree with Inga. Strange does not cover it by halves.

Kai Akker said...

Goes without saying Lem. Much derangement directly caused by climate change. Barometric pressure variations, carbon dioxide concentrations. Rain.
Can make a strong man crumble. Paranoia strikes deep.

"It’s being reported on X that he’s a “good friend” of Michael Flynn. It’s getting stronger and stranger."

You'll swallow anything.

Dixcus said...

And he’s a Republican, just thought I’d mention it…

Anyone can be a "republican." He was also carrying fake Press credentials. Does that make him a "journalist?" He was also carrying a fake VIP pass to the event site. You cannot think, Inga, that real Republicans are trying to murder Donald Trump. That is not happening.

Democrats are trying to murder Donald Trump, and they won't stop until they succeed and when they do you are going to regret it sorely once you see what the response to that event is going to be.

Inga said...

OM, he ran for assemblyman as a Republican, take a look for yourself.

Inga desperately, desperately wants to believe that her beloved Soviet Democrats are not trying to kill Donald Trump.

Of course, Inga desperately wants to believe all kinds of crazy things. That's what Democrat cultists do.

And? John McCain ran for President as a Republican. Mitt Romney ran for President as a Republican. Neither are Republicans. There are many Democrats in the Republican Party. Ask Liz Cheney. Once she was detected as a Democrat mole, she was ejected from the party. It's easy to "fake" being a "Republican."

What's your point, Inga? Why are you so caught up in trying to establish that this assassin was positioning himself as a member of the political party so that he could move around without raising suspicions?

Do you have NOTHING whatsoever to say about someone clearly attempting to murder another American citizen?

What is wrong with you, Inga? Do you not see your illness?

Kai Akker said...

Top chart is the Buffett Indicator, one of his favorite long-term market assessments. It comes from a link Tim in Vermont put up in another thread and speaks volumes. It says, the American stock market is at the highest extreme of valuation in our financial history. Although it doesn't include 1929, other charts show that we are well beyond that extreme too. The second chart is one of those that include 1929. Ha ha little one.

Worth a look IMO.

And the Q Ratio, another look at the same idea of stock market value as a multiple of actual business replacement value. More than two standard deviations off the historical average.

Why is Ivan Raiklin, Stephen Miller and Jack Posobiec hanging around with Vem Miller?

Dixcus said...

^ Same reason Liz Cheney hung out with Adam Schiff.

Aggie said...

I don't know, Inga - and neither do you.

I deleted my prior comment because there's too much unknown at this point. Apparently, the gun wasn't on him. He was found at the perimeter and never close to Trump. Fake press credentials. And already out on bail.

I suspect it wasn't an assassination attempt, per se. We'll see.

Okay Brandon The SCOTUS has made you immune to any consequences as long as you claim its official duty so you got 100 days. Forgive all student debt, stop shipping offensive weapons to Israel, you've been in government for a lifetime,you know what you can now do with the immunity while you have time left.Time for hardball old man, LETS GO BRANDON,,,YOU KNOW THE ORANGE PERP WOULD ..show some aggates! Call the smart people together and tell them to give you a list.

Dixcus said...

This man was in possession of illegal firearms. The law in California is clear: You may possess an unregistered firearm in your home. You may not put it in your vehicle, loaded, and carry it to a Donald Trump rally. That is illegal. The NY Post reports:

"[Police] searched the vehicle and discovered a cache of fake passports and driver’s licenses, along with a shotgun, a loaded handgun and a high-capacity magazine, officials said." Gee, I wonder where you get a cache of fake passports? Fake VIP entrance passes to the event and fake press credentials? Maybe you can get a bunch of fake passports from the US State Department. Since they print them.

The man who murders Donald Trump is going to go down in history the same way that John Wilkes Booth and Lee Harvey Oswald has. He will be remembered forever. That is what is motivating these Democrat assassins.

Inga said...

Aggie, I have not said I know what is going on, but I do know this, there is far more to the story than the this being a third attempt on Trump’s life. Even stranger yet, Sheriff Chad Bianco who said it was an assassination attempt follows Ivan Raiklin on X. Ivan Raiklin and Vem Miller are friends.

Sheriff Chad Raiklin follows Ivan Raiklin on X

I’m beginning to wonder if the good Sheriff didn’t jump the gun so to speak and announced a third assassination attempt on Trump speaking prematurely and without evidence. Or…?

Dixcus said...

You call him Brandon. We just call him Genocide Joe for short. He's helping Israel murder brown people. But yeah, vote for his side chick.

Dixcus said...

Let's examine the evidence:

1) Perp found with illegal unregistered loaded weapons in a vehicle travelling to the Trump event, including a shotgun, handgun and large magazine.
2) Found with fake press credentials and fake VIP credentials to get into the Trump event.
3) Found with a "cache" of forged US passports (arguably one of the most difficult documents you can attempt to forge).
4) Found at a surprise road checkpoint 1/2 mile away from the event venue that police never announced so that they could offset any planning that an assassin might attempt.
5) Extreme political content, to include podcasts and a channel on ROKU.

Yeah, the sheriff totally jumped the gun, Inga.

Dixcus said...

There is not a single video (so far) showing Walz actually firing his gun. At anything, even to test it, since he had extreme difficulty in loading it, suggesting that the gun was rusted out and he couldn't get the shells to seat properly.

His vest was PRISTINE. Obviously bought that morning at Wal-Mart and he's never worn any of that hunting gear ever before (there is not a single photo of him from his past ever hunting, discussing hunting, or even in the vacinity of hunting unless you include the massive burning down of cities in his jurisdiction that he allowed to occur without arrest.

Amazing how all three Trump killers were/are Trump supporters! Even when they aren't.

You know, I find Whitmer interesting in a repellent kind of way. So Shiny. She has those same kind of clean, attractive features of conventional beauty as, what's-her-name, Ilhan Omar. And when you look at her, there's an attractive quality there, from the good looks - and then a realization that you're looking at something that only mimics humanity - as if it's been brought there by some kind of weird natural selection process, to make them successful at preying on humans.

The two of them have the same vibe - and, of course, the same kind of track record, feasting on society. You'd almost expect to see them as sorceresses in a Schwarzenegger 'Conan' pic.

When the Soviet Democrats eventually kill Trump, Inga will say that it was Putin who organized it because Trump welched on a deal or some such nonsense.

It is pretty clear that these people are fanatical and remarkably stupid. The Soviet Democrats play the same game every election cycle. The Republicans are the fascists and they will take away your social security and Medicare.

Snopes agrees that 60 Minutes manufactured answers for Harris.

Matt Taibbi and Walter Kirn call it an "unprecedented" media scandal.

I think this is the moment when the internet won. In other words, the very crown jewel of the Tiffany network itself, CBS, 60 Minutes being the jewel, just revealed itself to be a synthetic diamond. And after this ... and was only caught by virtue of this new medium, social media, which was able to demonstrate the deception before your very eyes. And they’re not answering. That suggests to me a knockout by the new media. Because how do you go back?

Watching VP candidate Tim Walz feeble attempt to load a shotgun tells me if the Harris Walz team fails in their bid to win the White House, Tampon Tim fully capable of joining the Secret Service weapons team. Or becoming the armorer on a Hollywood movie set.

It would appear that the Georgia 2020 election fiasco, which includes election night, the machine recount, and the hand recount have been proven to be uncertifiable. The patriots I follow on X who have the receipts are @jeffmfulgham, and @kevinmoncla. Additionally there is Joe Rossi. The Dems and the communists there are still obfuscating and trying to cover this up. They had 20,000 more votes for the machine recount than were counted on election night. But everything was on the up and up/S

Saint Croix said...

She's apologized.

It's been shown that Christopher Columbus was a Sephardic Jew, but they still don't know where he was from. I guess the Italians can still claim him. Maybe he grew up on Italy. Or maybe they should rename the Columbus Society to the Vespucci Society. Be interesting to see how this plays out. The Italian-Americans were vehement in the defense of Columbus. Maybe not so much anymore. Perhaps most people are a little confused as to how to respond.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13955985/Vem-Miller-friend-insists-huge-Trump-supporter-no-intention-kill-former-president-Coachella.html

“A friend and business partner of the alleged third would-be Trump assassin Vem Miller has spoken out – telling DailyMail.com he is a full-blown Trump supporter and slamming police for 'not understanding he's one of us'.

Right-wing documentarian Mindy Robinson said Miller has been a MAGA activist for years, had no intention of killing the former president, and said she has been to several pro-Trump events with him.

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, Robinson described Miller as a journalist and documentarian.

That backs up what federal agencies have been saying about the arrest.

Secret Service sources told the New York Post they doubt Miller was going to try to kill Trump and the FBI is not investigating the incident as an assassination attempt.

Miller reportedly called the idea of going after Trump 'complete bulls***.'

'He had no intention to kill Trump,' Robinson added. 'It's ridiculous. To me it feels like a setup, or really inadequate police work. A sh***y excuse to get in a car and try to find something wrong with a Trump supporter or something.'“


Ohhhhh boy! Sounds like a comedy of errors.😄

Dixcus said...

No, she hasn't apologized. Releasing a statement that says, and I quote:

"I'm sorry that you misconstrued what I did in feeding a Dorito chip to a kneeling woman in the exact same way that a male priest would place the Eucharist on your tongue if you were kneeling in a Catholic church."

That in no way is an apology.

It's a doubling down. She's literally placing the "blame" on the viewer of her wicked blasphemy.

It would be the same as if al Qaeda released an apology for flying airplanes into the World Trade Center by saying they're sorry you misinterpreted their attempt at a landing.

This bitch needs to be up against a wall.

Meanwhile - our pathetic collective Dem-hack press are fit to be tied that anything could make the democrat party look bad.

Dixcus said...

Sure. Sure ... all Trump supporters show up at his rallies carrying fake passports, fake press credentials, fake VIP passes, illegal unregistered shotguns, etc. etc.

"Can I get me some fake passports here?" - John Kerry

You know who prints up fake passports? The US State Department, working in conjunction with the CIA.

Inga said...

“Earlier in the day Bianco told The Epoch Times in a text message: “We arrested a man trying to get in the perimeter with two firearms who ended up saying he was going to kill the president.””

Soooo, who is lying? The Sheriff or Vem Miller? WHY would Vem Miller a huge Trump supporter who is now being backed up by many other well known Trump supporters say such a thing?

Dixcus said...

Inga can't even figure out how you control a news cycle leading up to the election.

There's going to be 4 or 5 more "assassination attempts" by "republicans" because every time there is one, Kamala is kicked off the front page.

We're whiplashing them and they can't figure it out.

Thanks for all the info on the 3rd Assassian. Yeah, dont we all take forged VIP and Press passes and loaded firearms to a political rally. I mean whats the fuss. I sure Inga does it all the time. As for him being a "Rightwing Republican" who knows what even means. No doubt he was a "Life long Republican". He also worked in the Entertainment industry. BTW, how many Leftwing internet clowns pretend to "Rightwing" in order to disrupt a show, a discussion group, or rally? But, of course, they'd never do that to assassinate Trump. that wouldn't be fair.
