,,,Here you go Wally,,,this is regarding the Georgia state purge,,,It is getting kind of late in the election year to start purging…
“U.S. District Judge Steve Jones initially set a hearing on Fair Fight’s request for Thursday and said the purge should be placed on hold until then, but he later decided to hold a hearing Monday afternoon at the state’s request.
Lawyer Bryan Tyson, representing the secretary of state, told the judge that the window for voter maintenance is narrow because it cannot be done within 90 days before an election, which is why it’s generally done in off years. If it’s not completed by later this month — 90 days before the presidential primaries on March 24 — it can’t be done until 2021 because next year has no 90-day periods without elections, he said.
The voter maintenance program is already running and if it were stopped Monday before it has reached the end, it would have be completed manually, introducing the possibility of human error, he said.
Tyson assured the judge that if people are removed and the judge later decides they should not have been, their registrations can be reinstated within 24 to 48 hours. Once he was convinced of that, Jones said he wants to hear arguments from both sides Thursday about why the voters in question should or should not be removed rather than rushing a decision Monday.
Fair Fight says that over 120,000 people are on the purge list “solely because they have not voted or had any other statutorily-defined ‘contact’ with election officials in the past seven years and have not responded to two notices seeking confirmation of their current address.” The organization says a new law allows voters nine years of inactivity before being removed — compared to seven years under the old law — and is asking the judge to halt the removal of those voters from Georgia’s rolls.”

(Bloomberg) — Americans in every U.S. metropolitan area experienced economic prosperity in 2018, according to a recent report from the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
For the first time in 26 years, no metro area saw per-capita incomes fall that year — the latest available data — and it was only the fourth time since 1970 that every U.S. urban region experienced prosperity.

I, as well as many others, have been puzzled by the alliance of the Left and the Islamics. Seems counter intuitive at first glance. Tossing gays off rooftops, pro-religion verses secular humanity and the like. Just can’t wrap me noggin around the concept. The following may help me understand a wee bit. But, there still remains a big difference between ‘comprehend’ and ‘apprehend’ it fully.
VENEZUELA MOURNS SOLEIMANI
“For many years, people have commented on the seemingly-incongruous alliance between radical Muslims and Communists. In fact, however, there is no mystery: both are hostile to the values of advanced Western civilization and yearn for tyrannies that are not, in practice, particularly different from one another. Thus, while millions of Iranians are celebrating the demise of terrorist leader Qasem Soleimani, we shouldn’t be surprised that Venezuela’s Maduro regime is officially mourning him.
The Venezuelan government offered condolences to the people of Iran for the assassination of Iran’s top general by a US airstrike in Baghdad and praised Iran’s resistance with this poster.
From left to right, the poster pictures Hugo Chavez, Simon Bolivar, Soleimani, Che Guevara and Fidel Castro:
https://i2.wp.com/www.powerlineblog.com/ed-assets/2020/01/13981023134157186_PhotoL.jpg?
The translation is: “Faces, times and countries change, but the goal is the same.” I couldn’t have said it better myself.
One is struck by the fact that American liberals, like Venezuelan Communists, venerate or at least respect Fidel Castro, Che Guevara and Hugo Chavez. (We can leave Bolivar out of it for now.) One of these days, will “woke” American students walk around with pictures of Soleimani on their t-shirts? I wouldn’t rule it out. Guevara was just as bigoted and homicidal, if nowhere near as effective, as Soleimani.”

“Unhinged Alec Baldwin: Trump Voters Caused the ‘Colossal Destruction’ of America”
“It’s conservative Trump supporters who wield the prejudice in all this. He claimed, “It is Trump voters, particularly those who would re-elect him who bear the blame. For the undeniable and colossal destruction of everything that matters to us as Americans that cannot be merely monetized.”
Of course, it’s funny to see Alec act as a moral authority with insane ramblings such as these. It’s also even funnier to imagine that the man with a record for beating up paparazzi, a penchant for calling people “fggt,” and who’s acquired a reputation for physical fights over parking spaces, can blame Trump supporters for America’s moral decline.“

Pocahontas is not one of “us”.
“Sanders’s backers are then supposed to say that “people who support [Warren] are highly-educated, more affluent people who are going to show up and vote Democratic no matter what” and that “she’s bringing no new bases into the Democratic Party.”
This is brilliant. Sanders attacks Warren in populist terms as the candidate of “highly-educated, more affluent people” but in the guise of a raising a pragmatic concern about her ability to expand the Democratic base. The takeaway of most who hear this script would be that Warren is an elitist, who is not “one of us.” It wouldn’t be that Warren can’t expand the party’s appeal.

John Bolton: the Lefties’ Hail Mary. Hopey for Changey, and yes we can!
John Bolton’s Testimony Would Not Be The Smoking Gun Democrats Need
“You have to give credit to congressional Democrats for one thing: They are an extremely hopeful bunch. After years of Russia investigations aimed at toppling Donald Trump, they came away with what Grandmother would have called “bupkis.” But, not daunted, they quickly latched onto a whistleblower report about a phone call with Ukraine, and launched an up tempo effort, one last-ditch attempt to take the president down.
The result of this exertion did include a vote to impeach Trump, but did not attract a single GOP vote. This is also almost certain to the result in the senate trial as well. But wait! Now former National Security Adviser John Bolton has agreed to testify if called, and the Democrats are racing toward Lucy again, confident this time she won’t move the football.“………
The best plausible testimony Democrats can hope for is that Bolton reveals he expressed opposition, but so did a half dozen people who already testified, and just like them, nobody elected John Bolton to be president. The problem for Democrats has always been here that they cannot prove that Trump’s intent was not to ensure the country didn’t throw good money after bad…..
But, hope springs eternal in the Trump addled minds of the Democrats, maybe just maybe, they think, if they keep this sham process going on long enough something good might happen. They are like addicts at a slot machine convinced they have pulled the lever so many times that they must be due. One thing seems certain. John Bolton is not going to be their jackpot. In fact, they will at this point, almost certainly leave the casino known empty-handed.

“On Soviet gulags: “There’s a reason Joseph Stalin had gulags, right? And actually, gulags were a lot better than what the CIA has told us that they were. Like, people were actually paid a living wage in gulags, they had conjugal visits in gulags, gulags were actually meant for like re-education.”
Gulags are good for you to get your mind right.
Indulge me while I quote again the late Pat Caddell in 1992.
“Caddell saw that Perot’s success was not a unique situation but rather a sign of permanent social discontent now reshaping the traditional political system. He said that David Duke and Vermont’s Bernie Sanders — one the head of the KKK and the other a Jewish socialist, both with rising profiles in national politics — were “supping out of the same pot.”

Now that the hatchet is buried…how about some quotes. Hey, Dan B made the honor roll today.
Insight: “Individual rights are the means of subordinating society to moral law.” —Ayn Rand (1905-1982)
For the record: “On December 6, Second Lt. Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, a member of the Royal Saudi Air Force, entered a building on the grounds of Pensacola Naval Air Station and killed three U.S. sailors and severely wounded eight other Americans. He was killed during the attack. This was an act of terrorism. The evidence shows that the shooter was motivated by jihadist ideology.” —Attorney General William Barr
Upright: “During the Obama administration, the faster wage gains were among the top 10% of earners. We’ve flipped that now. The fastest wage gains are among the bottom 10%. And when you look at number of different measures of how the economy is doing, it’s some people who had less opportunity historically who are some of the really big beneficiaries right now.” —Labor Secretary Eugene Scalia
The bottom line: “The imminent threat was Soleimani having a pulse.” —Dan Bongino
Game, set, match: “I’m glad [House Speaker Nancy Pelosi] finally realized she never had any leverage in the first place to dictate Senate procedure to senators and is giving in to bipartisan pressure to move forward.” —Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Pelosi’s delay with articles of impeachment
Non compos mentis: “There is no better candidate than Cory Booker. There is no better man than Cory Booker. He will continue to do great things. He just doesn’t know any other way. He leads with love. He leads by service. I am always inspired by him.” —Alyssa Milano
Grand delusions: “People are afraid of not just what he can do, but what he’s doing to people, what he’s bringing out in people, the kind of people he’s surfacing in the United States. You have swatting happening and Nazis walking around. It is a scary time. And you look at the polling on what Donald Trump has just done, and rather than make people feel more confident, it’s made people more anxious.” —MSNBC’s Joy Reid
And last… “Bernie Sanders once called for a 100% tax on anyone earning ‘more money than they can spend in a lifetime.’ He defined that as $1,000,000. Despite never working a real job in his life, Bernie Sanders’ net worth today: Over $2,000,000. I wonder if he still supports that tax.” —Charlie Kirk

For the record: “On December 6, Second Lt. Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, a member of the Royal Saudi Air Force, entered a building on the grounds of Pensacola Naval Air Station and killed three U.S. sailors and severely wounded eight other Americans. He was killed during the attack. This was an act of terrorism. The evidence shows that the shooter was motivated by jihadist ideology.” —Attorney General William Barr
Upright: “During the Obama administration, the faster wage gains were among the top 10% of earners. We’ve flipped that now. The fastest wage gains are among the bottom 10%. And when you look at number of different measures of how the economy is doing, it’s some people who had less opportunity historically who are some of the really big beneficiaries right now.” —Labor Secretary Eugene Scalia
The bottom line: “The imminent threat was Soleimani having a pulse.” —Dan Bongino
Game, set, match: “I’m glad [House Speaker Nancy Pelosi] finally realized she never had any leverage in the first place to dictate Senate procedure to senators and is giving in to bipartisan pressure to move forward.” —Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Pelosi’s delay with articles of impeachment
Non compos mentis: “There is no better candidate than Cory Booker. There is no better man than Cory Booker. He will continue to do great things. He just doesn’t know any other way. He leads with love. He leads by service. I am always inspired by him.” —Alyssa Milano
Grand delusions: “People are afraid of not just what he can do, but what he’s doing to people, what he’s bringing out in people, the kind of people he’s surfacing in the United States. You have swatting happening and Nazis walking around. It is a scary time. And you look at the polling on what Donald Trump has just done, and rather than make people feel more confident, it’s made people more anxious.” —MSNBC’s Joy Reid
And last… “Bernie Sanders once called for a 100% tax on anyone earning ‘more money than they can spend in a lifetime.’ He defined that as $1,000,000. Despite never working a real job in his life, Bernie Sanders’ net worth today: Over $2,000,000. I wonder if he still supports that tax.” —Charlie Kirk

PREEMPTION: Here’s a setup story from The New York Times to undermine anything about the Bidens and Burisma so that if something emerges on Joe, it can be written off as “Russian meddling”.

And in a magnanimous gesture to help our Speaker of the House in her dark time of need, President Trump is donating his salary this month to a DC based recovery group to help alleviate the curse of mental illness brought on by chronic alcohol abuse. Gotta move on.

re: Sanders v. Warren
“Pocahontas is not one of “us”.
“Sanders’s backers are then supposed to say that “people who support [Warren] are highly-educated, more affluent people who are going to show up and vote Democratic no matter what” and that “she’s bringing no new bases into the Democratic Party.””
A fairly obvious takeaway is that this is all about the black vote. The hivemind there, as I remember, likes Biden, ambivalent towards Sanders, not big on Warren. Warren, of course, is a pure play in post-Protestant America, and represents the part of the new elite that no one likes.
Truth is, all of these people would say anything to get elected, and it’s the mafia behind them that really matters. Seriously, the GULAG won’t be that bad.

from Señor Fish’s article.
“The South Bend Police Department training material claims all personnel have a measurable Cumulative Perceptual Index (CPI) rating, which measures each officer’s “cultural competence.” They are assumed to be racist, sexist, “sizeist,” and whatever-ist is in vogue at the moment until they can prove their lack of bias.”
lmfao. I’ve never heard of a ‘CPI’ rating. I’m liking this idea.
It makes me wonder what part of the US will be a latter-day Kingdom of Soissons as the craziness expands to fill the rest of the West. My main comfort in life is that plate tectonics will eventually provide a blank slate, the best case scenario would be the Yellowstone Caldera, a lawn chair and a twelve pack.

It’s not Gulags, it’s free education. At least I appreciate his honestly. One thing about the Age of Trump is it’s all being brought into the open. No more hiding behind niceties and whispers. They are finally coming out and telling us what they really think instead of couching words. I find the candor rather refreshing.

It do not expect anyone to watch this 9 min Dan B podcast. No one. It’s not a requirement and as Scenes pointed out once, it’s a hard slog. With the disclaimers out of the way…Good Job Senator Paul in calling witnesses….to be fair to both sides. And, of course, the NYT piece about Russia Russia Russia hacking Burmisa. Odd timing, no? Comes out right out of the blue.

@ 1:27 pm: the Black Vote? Popcorn time, taking down Mayor Pete. It’s getting down to crunch time.
Pete-er Out? Buttigieg Faces Falling Poll Numbers, Protests Ahead Of Iowa Caucus
“Over the weekend, Buttigieg was dogged by Black Lives Matter, who disrupted one of his major events, shouting “anti-black, anti-poor,” as Buttigieg tried to speak at a rally…..
This is the second such disruption. Black Lives Matter derailed a Buttigieg campaign event in California late last week, upending the candidate’s visit to a homeless shelter in the notoriously crime-ridden Los Angeles neighborhood, Watts, per the Los Angeles Times……
This weekend’s protesters say they were bankrolled by an “outside organization,” which indicates Buttigieg is now a target, probably of his more progressive opponents, including Sanders (or at least Sanders’ supporters). If he doesn’t respond adequately, that could mean a deeper hole going into the Iowa caucus, which takes place on February 2nd.“

BillT 224pm – Yes indeed Mr Tozer, you nailed it. Trump being open and letting it all hang out is catching. But then, a lot of people already knew what the Left would have in store for the rest of us unbelievers when they take over. Their playbook hasn’t changed since the Bolshevik Revolution.
