End of the Line?

In case you have not seen this yet, the following is from Fox News (!)



You know that this was not aired solely on the impetus of Shepard Smith.  This is absolutely beyond anything we could have expected from a doctrinaire Republica news outlet like Fox News.

I see that this morning the Republicans are enlisting right wing judges to try to force electors to cast their votes the way the Republican party wants, despite the clear intent of the writers of the Constitution.  In the unlikely situation where electors actually try to do the right thing, Conservatives will be there every inch of the way, trying to stop them.

Any Republican administration is starting under a cloud now. This is gonna be a weird 4 years. Thx for that clip.

Trump has already said that he is smarter than the generals. Now, I assume he thinks that he is smarter than the intelligence community too. He must have a very low opinion of both the generals and the CIA since most of the works knows that he is dumber than a rock.

The government of my country - a conservative one - has initiated a foreign policy white paper for the first time since 2003, when the Iraq war began. The purpose of this is to establish core imperatives on how the country conducts itself with regard to national security. This takes some time. There was some circling around the precise reason for the timing and it wasn't really spelt out... but it's obvious: our most important ally is on the edge of an abyss. Its sovereignty has been compromised. A person of no rational political inclination, poor intellect, distrust of essential institutions, possessed of a severely disordered personality is to occupy the White House. This goes back to what I wrote the other week: countries around the world are reviewing their assumptions. They have no choice. And this bad for America because it means de facto American leadership of the free world, and trust in it, is quietly collapsing. A hopeful assumption would be that it returns. The contingency is if it does not.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

Image
How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination that worked so we
