[Well, we can have a lot of fun now dissecting the incompetence and corruption of the Team Biden cabinet nominees.  And I don't think Hunter Biden's escapades are going to go away.  They will be joined by ignoramuses like John Kerry who will be taken to the cleaners by the Chinese as he tries to negotiate environmental issues with them with an empty quiver.  gjr]

    We are going to have a wild six weeks between now and the inauguration of a President from 2020 to 2024. Pennsylvania might be the first want to roll on Tuesday. Georgia is going to have a bunch of problems coming here in the near future. There’s a high likelihood that they bring their legislature back into special session to deal with the election questions. Wisconsin is going to have a tough time too. Big blatantly violating the law to the tune of like 150,000 ballots. We could still be seeing President Trump in six weeks. Constitutionally it’s very interesting. In any event election security is going to be on the front burner in every state for the next two years.🇺🇸

    “I am liking this Lin Wood fellow“. -Duhemorrhoids
    Really? I like Lin Woods, too, on occasional. We have something in common. Lin has a long stellar history in law, specializing in media abuses beyond protected speech for our 4th Estate. They say nobody knows slander and libel laws better and can (and has) knows how to sue media and win, well, the name Lin Woods is the go to man.
    Mr. Woods defended JonBenet Ramsey’s ten year old brother murder case as well as both parents. Other notable cases including taking on a case pro bono and won millions of dollars in settlement cases against the Wa Post, CNN, and some other major news outfit, like NBC and 9 media personalities. Lin warned them and told them to retract and apologize, but no. No way, Jose.
    When Lin Woods prevailed, winning bukoo bucks for his client, the young innocent 16 year who was maliciously slandered and falsely lied about causing immediate death threats to his entire family and Hollywood actresses offering blow jobs to anyone who would smack the minor…the child…in the face. The ruthlessly slandered youth for something he did not do name is Nick Sandmann.
    I like Lin’s work at times. Apparently, so do you, Duhiarrhea. I remember how His Lardass and other wack jobs like Ozz went crazy demonizing the Covington Catholic School boys; kids actually. And all the class warfare and religious bigotry came out in spades from the media and all the Lefties, and all lefty media’s pinholes. Private School! Rich and priviledged private prep school boys like Bret Kavanaugh and evil intolerant Catholics school to boot. The horror, the horror.

    THE WEEK IN PICTURES: MONOLITH MYSTERY EDITION
    “I’ve totally solved the Great Monolith of 2020 Mystery. It’s obvious in fact: they are just Christo’s last, posthumous performance art project. I know, it may be hard to wrap your head around this, but it’s not like Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself or something. But this time the joke’s on Christo, since everyone is going around in a mask in the greatest health performance art stunt ever. And everyone is in on it!”

    THE WASHINGTON POST’S BEEF WITH NEERA TANDEN
    It’s not just conservatives and insulted Republican Senators who are unhappy that Joe Biden has selected Neera Tanden to run the Office of Management and Budget. The Washington Post criticizes her from the left in populist terms:
    “In her nine years helming Washington’s leading liberal think tank, Neera Tanden mingled with deep-pocketed donors who made their fortunes on Wall Street, in Silicon Valley and in other powerful sectors of corporate America.
    Between 2014 and 2019, CAP [the Center for American Progress] received at least $33 million in donations from firms in the financial sector, private foundations primarily funded by wealth earned on Wall Street and in other investment firms, and current or former executives at financial firms such as Bain Capital, Blackstone and Evercore, according to a Washington Post analysis of CAP’s donor disclosures and some of the foundations’ public tax filings. In the same time period, CAP received between $4.9 million and $13 million from Silicon Valley companies and foundations, including Facebook and founder Mark Zuckerberg’s philanthropic organization.“
    Nearly every quality think tank receives corporate donations (as does the Federalist Society), and think tanks are a natural source of expertise for an administration. The current OMB director, Russell Vought, served as vice president of Heritage Action for America, the Post notes.
    This reality may aggravate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and (these days) Tucker Carlson. But I doubt that it bothers the Washington Post……

    SUICIDE OF A CITY
    Most American cities are poorly governed, but some–Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis–are so badly governed that one wonders whether they can survive. Christopher Rufo documents the latest madness in Seattle:
    “In October, the Seattle City Council floated legislation to provide an exemption from prosecution for misdemeanor crimes for any citizen who suffers from poverty, homelessness, addiction, or mental illness.”
    Obviously, a large percentage of crimes are committed by people who fall into one or more of those categories. In fact:
    Under the proposed ordinance, courts would have to dismiss all so-called “crimes of poverty” — which, according to the city’s former public-safety advisor, would cover more than 90 percent of all misdemeanor cases citywide. In effect, the legislation would create a new class of “untouchables,” protected from consequences by the city’s powerbrokers.
    This initiative, if adopted, would make Seattle unlivable:
    “On a practical level, if this ordinance becomes law, it will effectively legalize an entire spectrum of misdemeanor crimes, including theft, assault, harassment, drug possession, property destruction, and indecent exposure. Criminals must simply establish that they have an addiction, mental-health disorder, or low income in order to evade justice. The impact of this measure would be enormous.
    In 2019, the Seattle Police Department reported 25,993 thefts, 8,442 assaults, 6,430 property offenses, 4,194 frauds, 3,910 trespasses, and 1,640 narcotics violations — representing 72 percent of all reported crimes. If the ordinance passes, nearly all these crimes would be permitted under law.”

    “There is no telling how many Congressional & Senate seats, and even Governorships, we’ve lost because of this [election fraud]. They’ve been telling us that the country has been trending blue. It has not. That is an abject lie. We’ve collected the data that’s going to show that, among many other things.”

    This is why they are called poppinjsts and the Enemy of the Prople:
    “The entire story was bolstered by media outlets reporting anonymous sources that didn’t even appear to have direct knowledge of the investigation or any of the allegations, referred to only as “sources familiar with the matter.” After the story was revealed to be false, media outlets and politicians stopped bring it up, but never had to answer for their repeated false claims.”

If 150 people can keep packing out planes, elbow to elbow for hours, then there’s no reason we can’t sit in a pew on Sunday morning. Religious liberty is a fundamental freedom. Flying on a plane isn’t.” —Tony Perkins

All the lying and posturing and phony branding and hypocrisy come with a price, and that price is nobody believes anything or anyone anymore.” —Neil Patel
    For the record: “There is a lot [of people] on that illiberal left that absolutely condescend, patronize, and are arrogant toward the other 50%. Many people … when Trump was voted in four years ago, they were in denial that it was actually real. Some of them were in absolute denial.” —Matthew McConaughey
    The BIG Lie: “The Steele dossier was not used in any way to undergird the judgments that came out of the intelligence community assessment about the Russian actions in the 2016 election.” —John Brennan

    So, the exit question is: Have any of you ever chased a dog trying to pull on its tail? Have any of you good dog lovers purposely yanked on your beloved pet’s tail? Obviously, it’s not something a dog enjoys and a loving master just does not run after a dog trying to pull on pull on the dog’s tail.
    What kind of pet owner does that?? A friggin sicko chases his puppy just to tug on its tail. I can understand unknowingly doing it once. No wonder the pup ran off. What dog wouldn’t? Me thinks Dementia Joe broke his foot trying to stomp on Fido’s tail. Sick shit, man.

    Ok folks, I have had something on my mind for two weeks now that has made me so sick to my stomach that I have not even been able to speak about it or address it for days and days on in. It literally made me ill. Couldn’t even bring myself to talk about it…until now.
    With all the election stuff going down sucking all the air out of the room, this may seem to the casual reader a comment from left field. It’s about Ukraine.
    I had no idea to the extent of the corruption when I said the Dems have no idea what a can of worms they are opening up in Ukraine….are you sure you Dems wanna go there? They did.
    Put for a moment Hunter Biden out of the picture. Ah heck, put Sleazy Joe out of the picture, too. Who was the fired Ukrainian Prosecutor General investigating before Hunter? Who was our government paying millions of dollars to fund a NGO group called Ukrainians Against Corruption or whatever the group called themselves? Funded by our State Department through the US Embassy in Kiev. Millions of dollars, US.
    Answer: the Ukrainian fired prosecutor was investigating George Soros and the group he funded and the US paid quite well, the misnomer Corruption Busters (whatever their front was called ). Seems the axed prosecutor was investigating some serious Soros stuff. Soros pushed to have the prosecutor fired. Soros had a billion dollar business deal pending in Ukraine and by getting the Prosecutor General fired, he also eliminated his completion in the billion dollar business deal.
    When the news of this started to get out, they panicked. Panicked big time. The lid on the corruption, the US role via the State Department in Ukraine concerning Soros and others and all the slime was ready to blow off and see the light of day. Panic time! Time for action plan.
    Whistleblower runs to Schifflips, All the moving parts in place. Impeach Trump now!
    I can’t go on. I have too much repulsion to continue on. I once said (about the Russian Hoax) that all roads lead through Ukraine. I was wrong. Some roads lead through Ukraine and from there…..Holy Smokes. What a can of worms was stumbled upon. Nothing to do with weapons to Ukraine or Hunter.
    I must stop here. Back to Trump and the Lying Dems and the election of 2020.

    Once, many moons ago, I was visiting a great man (now deceased) recovering from knee surgery. Was there to help him move his heavy chair, for fun and for free. Too heavy for the his bride to move, plus I moved his TV closet to the chair. His wife had the sewing circle going in the house with all these great ladies making quilts.
    Anyway, while I was there, this guy pulls up in a older pickup wearing overalls, dropping off a crate of free peaches to his friend and checking in on him as well. The man asked me if I would like to take home some peaches. I declined his offer for the peaches, not something I wanted to haul around all day in a hot truck in a heat wave…with little room and a busy schedule.
    When he left, the person I was visiting told me the peach guy was Chuck Yeager.
