Vote


 

Well, hey there! It is now 1:12 AM, 8 November 2022 - the most crucial, existential Election Day of our lifetimes; one that is right up there with 1932 and 1864. We could lose everything by the time the polls close tonight - and some people a lot smarter than I am are predicting that we might - some are even predicting that we will. Say what you will about the weird times we are living through, they sure as hell aren't boring, Anything but. By this time tomorrow morning we could all be humming a requiem for America. I'm going to keep a harmonica handy just to be on the safe side. We shall see.

"Senator Herschel Walker". Can you imagine? Anything is possible in Idiot Nation. Fasten your seatbelts, kiddies.

A number of years ago, I wrote on this site a piece called "A Message to My Fellow White People". In it, I noted that the shade of America's skin tone was darkening to such a degree that, for the rest of the twenty-first century, the biggest story would be how people who are white reacted to this unavoidable inevitability. All of the craziness that we are currently witnessing throughout the American landscape is about race. It has always been about race in this country. That is the crucial thing you need to understand. Right wing politicians have always needed the boogie man of race to keep white people deathly afraid when they go to the polls on any given Election Day in any given year. The problem for them is this: in a few short years, white people will no longer be the majority in this country. Ain't that something?

I'm not-at-all optimistic about the results of today's election. In recent years, fat and lazy white politicians have seen to it that them darkies will have as difficult time as possible in casting their votes. Even a reprehensible Uncle Tom House Negro on the Supreme Court named Clarence Thomas is making it nearly impossible for democracy to flourish in the United States these days.

I cannot emphasize this enough: if you're a progressive, get out there and vote today like your life depends upon it. Bring as many like-minded friends of yours to the polls with you if you are able to. It you are a conservative: never mind.

It's now a little after three in the morning. The polls  open in less than four hours. Vote.

Strange days indeed.

Tom Degan, Goshen, NY

AFTERTHOUGHT, 8:50 AM:

I finally managed to cast my ballot. They changed the location of my usual polling place and it took me two hours to find it - but I voted, dag nap it! If you haven't managed to already, get out there and vote. This is a big one, folks!

SUGGESTED READING:

  2. It's happened before and will happen again.

    Republicans can win the gerrymandered House and anti-democratic Senate with fewer overall votes than Democrats. Along with the Electoral College, these tragic errors in judgment by the founders will impair, undermine and corrupt our representative republic.

    Like slavery, the founders codified inequalities in the Constitution. (Thanks to the slave states.)

    Americans STILL endure taxation and minority rule without fair representation. Washington DC has more people than Vermont and Wyoming combined. They have no voice in our so-called republic.

    White nationalist Christians are not the majority, but are more empowered than the majority.

    And that's what they want. Minority rule. They will violently revolt against the majority AGAIN, if they lose.

    The Top Five Excuses Democrats Will Use If They Get Annihilated on Election Day.

    Scapegoat #5: Bigotry
    The Democrats will triple down on white Christian “hatred” when the nation soundly rejects a child’s “right” to play transformer and carve up their genitals. There will be no mention of the black Christian vote that rejects this insanity. Hispanic Christians are flocking to the GOP as well. The Democrats know — or should know — they are in trouble when Michigan’s Muslim vote swings toward the Republicans.

    Scapegoat #4: “Misinformation”
    Stacey Abrams is already blaming her loss on black men who are refusing to vote for her. Why wouldn’t black men just automatically cast a vote for Abrams? All black people should obediently vote for a black woman, right?

    Scapegoat #3: “White Supremacy”
    We know there is so little white supremacy in the U.S that Biden allegedly asked the FBI to manufacture some good old hatred. FakeHateCrimes.org has 472 examples of false bigotry, almost all of which are minorities pretending to be victims of racial hatred. Imagine living in a country so lacking in hate crimes that people and the FBI have to fake it.

    Scapegoat #2: The Right Hates Women
    So listen up, ladies: Shave your heads, pierce your business, sticks your arms in a wood chipper–we don’t care. We aren’t concerned if you go to heaven or hell. We just think killing babies a week before birth is grotesque. You can have nine abortions; you aren’t hurting us conservatives.

    Scapegoat # 1: Trump
    Trump has been out of office for almost two years, but the Progressive, leftists socialist and Democrats don't seem to be aware of this.

    Right on cue, a bunch of voting machines are down in Arizona and it isn't even lunchtime. The Steal Is Happening in Maricopa County, Arizona

    What a coincidence Arizona is having election problems with the Democrat secretary of state running for governor and trailing in the polls. Latest guidance for Maricopa County voters:

    If you’ve checked in at a Maricopa County voting location where tabulators don’t work, you should not leave & go to another location without casting a vote. Your provisional ballot at new location likely will not count.

    Anyone want to guess where the voting machines are failing Dem or GOP Precincts?

    In addition to historically low levels of diesel fuel supply and depleted home heating oil reserves in the Northeast that will likely result in a literal winter of death for some, millions of American families will soon be forced to gather around the kitchen table for a depressing and scary conversation regarding how they’ll afford natural gas this winter in Biden’s America.

    In a bombshell Nov. 9 report that the mainstream media has virtually ignored, data from Biden’s U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) indicated that it predicts the price of natural gas prices will skyrocket during the upcoming winter season. Prices are expected to hit at least 10-12-year highs, and that’s based on normal winter conditions.

    More than a dozen Republican minorities were swept away Tuesday by what some are calling the Democratic Party’s “white wave.” In what can only be viewed as a deliberate act of bigotry, Democrats nominated white candidates to run against GOP candidates of color and proceeded to defeat those candidates, thereby excluding them from the halls of power.

    Rep.-elect Josh Brecheen (R., Okla.) will be the only member of the Choctaw Nation in the House of Representatives, and if Herschel Walker defeats Sen. Raphael Warnock (D., Ga.) in next month’s runoff election, there will be more black Republicans in the U.S. Senate than black Democrats.

    FTX
    10 - Late Prepper

    The FTX crypto slush fund run by now-disgraced Sam Bankman-Fried (and his MIT college buddies) laundered money for Ukraine into nearly $40 million worth of campaign donations for Democrats in the 2022 mid-term elections.

    Over the last year, Joe Biden and the Democrats have pushed through well over $50 billion in funding for Ukraine, using US taxpayer money. Internationally, over $100 billion has been donated to Ukraine, according to Devex.com which has compiled worldwide donations and grants to the Ukrainian cause.

    FTX simultaneously processed donations to Ukraine by using its crypto infrastructure. As CoinDesk.com reported in May of this year, “Ukraine Partners With FTX, Everstake to Launch New Crypto Donation Website.”

    In other words, the corrupt Ukraine regime partnered with a corrupt crypto slush fund to take dollars from the corrupt US government and funnel them into the hands of corrupt Democrat candidates to win rigged mid-term elections.

    Is this racism to racist, let's ask Dave, he's the expert on racism.

    Stunning New Survey Shows 52% Of Companies Actively Discriminate Against White Men When Hiring

    A new study published by ResumeBuilder Monday has confirmed what many Americans struggling with employment post-COVID lockdowns have already noticed: in many roles, white men need not apply. Fifty-two percent of companies use ‘Reverse Discrimination’ according to hiring managers, and 1 in 6 are told to ‘deprioritize’ white men. Even worse, 95% of them believe their DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) initiatives are improving their companies.

    In a well-documented, headlong plunge to embrace DEI, many firms have reportedly taken a stance of discrimination against white male job applicants according to a ResumeBuilder study.

    According to our intellectual betters in media and politics, we’re not supposed to believe this because white men are the most privileged class.

  35. Mary Trump: “I think if Donald served any constructive purpose at all, it was that. That he held up a mirror, and he revealed the Republican Party to be what it is and has been for a very long time.”

    Racist crybabies, pretending to be the "real victims" of racism, are like every other racist and Nazi.

    What are the odds that a third of the "hiring managers" are white privileged racist MAGAts? Probably higher.

    "Sixteen percent of hiring managers surveyed say they have been told to deprioritize white men when evaluating candidates, and 14% have been told to deprioritize hiring white women."

    Exactly! Prioritizing white people IS systemic racism. Racists can't see it, of course.

    The good news is that the vast majority of hiring managers ‘somewhat’ (30%) or ‘strongly’ (67%) believe their company has overall good intentions when it comes to DEI initiatives.

    The majority also ‘somewhat’ (35%) or ‘strongly’ (60%) believe that their company has been overall improved by having DEI initiatives and 87% say their company has successfully hired more diverse employees due to these programs.

    White sign language interpreter booted from 'Lion King' gig on Broadway because of his skin color.

    An actor and comedian was removed from his role as sign language interpreter on Broadway's production of "The Lion King" because he is white, according to a discrimination lawsuit filed last Tuesday.

    Keith Wann, 53, has claimed that, back in late March, he was hired to work as an ASL interpreter on "The Lion King," an impressive gig on one of the longest-running shows in Broadway history. The job would have also paid him $1,000 per performance.

    However, a few days later, Wann and another interpreter were reportedly asked to "back out of interpreting the show" after officials with the non-profit Theatre Development Fund — which arranges for ASL interpreters to work on Broadway — determined that it was "no longer appropriate" to have white interpreters sign on behalf of black characters. The organization wanted black interpreters to assume the roles instead.

    INSURRECTION CLAUSE: Wheels in motion to ban Trump from ever holding office again

    Representative David Cicilline is gathering other Members of Congress in support of legislation that would, under the 14th Amendment’s insurrection clause, bar Donald Trump from ever holding office again. He says evidence that Trump helped plan the January 6th attack is a part of the bill.

    Cicilline, who served as impeachment manager on Trump’s second impeachment — that’s the one for trying to overthrow the United States government by interfering with the outcome of a free and fair election — is contacting other lawmakers to inform them he’s drafted legislation that gathers evidence and testimony to support the conclusion that Trump “engaged in insurrection.”

    The evidence, he says, shows that Trump not only encouraged the attack on January 6th, but helped plan it.

    In the letter, apparently initially sent before Trump’s Tuesday evening announcement, Cicilline says that Trump has “forfeited the right to ever hold federal office again,” through his actions surrounding January 6th. He’s calling for legislators to respond by noon on Thursday, suggesting that he intends to publicly introduce the bill shortly after that deadline — perhaps by the end of the week.

    The Biden administration’s unprecedented raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence is shaping up to be one of the most egregious abuses of power that has ever been committed by a sitting president.

    It is now nearly indisputable that it was a politically motivated raid over a paperwork dispute tantamount not only to blatant election interference into the 2022 midterms, but also a pre-emptive salvo on Biden’s presumptive presidential rival in the 2024 election.

    The FBI’s raid at the behest of the National Archives and Records Administration has not yielded the “nuclear secrets” that the Washington Post reported in August were in Trump’s possession. Instead, days after a highly contested election where Democrats relied in part on the unsubstantiated reports to keep Trump’s name in the news, and thus to turn out its party base, the Washington Post has effectively made a guilty confession: There is “no there, there.”

    The Post is now reporting that a “review by agents and prosecutors found no discernible business interest in the Mar-a-Lago documents, people familiar with the matter said.”

    In other news...Rudy Giuliani cleared

    The Biden administration and the Democrats have gone after anyone remotely tied to Donald Trump. One man they targeted for destruction was Rudy Giuliani. A two-year investigation into possible violations of foreign lobbying ended this week without charges — effectively clearing him of wrongdoing.

  63. The dipshit Vern is plagiarizing is a fascist who thinks the Trump Cartel is above the law.

    The FACT is Trump STOLE secret documents that were NOT HIS.

    Also the FACT the feds dropped their investigation of Rudy's Ukraine activities is a DIRECT rejection of their claim of a "partisan rigged DOJ".

    They LIE.

    Rudy lost his attorney privileges for lying to courts about "massive election fraud". He's also under active criminal investigation in Georgia.

    Radical Right Conservatives LOVE their fellow slimeball liars.

    Knowhatahmean, Vern?

    What aboutism,,,92% of the FTX $40 million was given to Democrats.

    Where Was All The Right-Wing MAGA Political Violence Democrats Warned Would Plague The Midterms? Guess the Dems lied

    Someone forgot about the President being a convicted of plagiarizing. If I were thwt person I wouldn't bring up plagiarizing again.

    DEMOCRATIC RACISM
    More than a dozen Republican minorities were swept away Tuesday by what some are calling the Democratic Party’s “white wave.” In what can only be viewed as a deliberate act of bigotry, Democrats nominated white candidates to run against GOP candidates of color and proceeded to defeat those candidates, thereby excluding them from the halls of power.

  66. Vern seems to think it's racist to vote against Black Republicans.

    Is there anything they don't FEEL victimized about?

    Why does Vern ignore the fact that Republicans can only win the majority of white voters?
    Hmm. Make ya think, doesn't it?

    Another Trump crony sees the light:

    “I personally think that they probably have the basis for legitimately indicting him.” ~ Former Attorney General Bill Barr, on PBS, about Donald Trump’s legal issues.

    Can't afford to heat your home? Pay thousands of dollars for solar panels!

    Can't afford to put gas in your car? Buy a $60k electric vehicle and replace the battery for the low cost of another $30k!

    Can't wait to see how much our culture will improve, how many new scientific developments will be discovered, and all the new medical improvements that those crossing our southern border will bring to us.

    Based on what I've read most of these cultural new citizens are Roman Catholic, which could make them Pro-life. Most of them are fleeing socialism, could they be capitalists? Just what our country needs, a bunch of rabid pro life Christian Catholics, with old fashion morals, anti gay, and who do not believe in gender fluidity.

    How much whining do you think the Left will do when they realize what is happening?
    And to think we can all thank Joe Biden.

  76. Anonymous Vern is so brainwashed with hate and lies he still thinks most Americans support Trump.

    Sad.

    Vern's savior: "I love the poorly educated!"

    Vern's savior to his thugs after they terrorized Congress and beat cops: "You're very special. We love you."

    Vern agrees with every racist and neo-Nazi in America, because he's one of them.

    Racism isn't racism to racists.

    Ignorance isn't ignorance to the ignorant.

    A cult isn't a cult to a cult.

    I'm sure there is no racism there.
