Always guilty of what they accuse others of –
In a piece titled “Democrats thumb their nose at the rule of law in Pennsylvania,” the WaPo edito”Democrats would surely protest if a Republican commissioner made the same statement [as Ellis-Marseglia] to justify tipping the scales for their party’s Senate nominee — and they would be right,” the board said. “Elections need rules, established in advance of the voting, and those rules must be applied equally and consistently.”
The op-ed also predicted that the votes “will almost certainly be overturned on appeal, but the mere attempt to defy judicial rulings is corrosive to democracy and invites similar behavior in future elections.”rial board wrote that election rules “must be applied equally and consistently.”
“Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court, by the way, includes five justices elected in partisan elections as Democrats and just two elected as Republicans,” the editorial board noted. “Even if that partisan balance were reversed, however, the court’s authority would be equally legitimate.”
The op-ed also flatly states that Casey “almost certainly lost the race,” and called for Democrats to accept the loss gracefully, “especially if they want to continue claiming theirs is the party of democracy.”
“State law also entitles Mr. Casey to a statewide recount because Mr. McCormick’s margin of victory is smaller than half a percentage point, though not by much,” the op-ed said. “A recount is unlikely to change the outcome.”

“London professor claims geology — the study of rocks — is racist, linked to ‘white supremacy’”
https://humanevents.com/2024/11/16/london-professor-claims-geology-the-study-of-rocks-is-racist-linked-to-white-supremacy
but, not being interested in an editorial, I went to her page.
https://www.qmul.ac.uk/geog/staff/yusoffk.html
which states:
“Understanding geology and race as modes of historical planetary transformation and social change involves a conceptualization of geologic life and subjectivity. This empirical and theoretical research has sort to show how colonial earth practices, overseen by the discipline of geology, transformed the planet into a global entity organized by practices of extraction and racial subjugation. I locate the histories of race and geology as co-terminus and therefore inextricably linked in questions of justice, world making, subject deforming and future building. Geologic Life shows the processes by which race and racialization emerged geologically and shape a contemporary political terrain of power and environments defined by racial geologies.”

Now that a large group of non-fogies made a break for normalcy by electing Trump, what happens to that group of kids damaged by the Democrats?
You’ve got an entire age group immersed in rather nasty men’s fetishes, the evils of Taco Tuesday, crying into cell phones about how Orange Man Bad, having their bits nipped off in some sort of group insanity…what happens to them? They were basically used by the Team Blue elite to build up power, a ready-made street army, but there’s some chance history will pass them by.
So what happens to the crazy kids? Do they heal up? Become next-gen street people? Run for city council in some new attempt at rebuilding the world in their image? My guess is that generations on either side will view them with a combination of disdain and pity.
