Ramen conceded on election night. She knew she had been beaten and wouldn’t advance to the general. And then, miracle of miracles, she got an absolutely massive share of the mail-in ballots and surged ahead of second-place Pratt.
This does not happen in an honest system. The mail-in ballots might very well favor Democrats but they would favor all the Democrats, not just the one the Democrats need to get into second place to guarantee no non-Democrat can win in November. But that is what happened – it was an all-Ramen all the time voter surge…a massive number of Angelenos saved their votes for her and dropped them in the mail just in time to make sure she’d advance.
Statistical improbability is proof of fraud.
And it doesn’t matter how you spin it, it is fraud. Even if it legal under California and Los Angeles law, it is fraud – it is altering the election to favor the Ruling Class. But here come the Never Trump Republicans: “sure it looks bad, but we don’t have proof of fraud”. These morons still don’t get it: our opponents would eat us alive if they thought it would give them power and wealth. There is nothing they won’t do for power – no lie too ridiculous, no skullduggery too low. How are Democrats responding to GOPers still giving the benefit of the (non-existent) doubt? They’re working on axing Hilton from the November contest. They are cheating right in front of us and laughing at us while they do it…Never Trump: “Gee, guys, this looks really bad”. Implying that if the Democrats can make the cheat look a little more honest, it would be ok.
A Republic cannot survive cheating. It just can’t. If the people don’t feel that things are on the level, then they will opt for whatever Caesar comes along to who will at least give them their due…or at bare minimum destroy those who cheated their way into power and money. We cannot endure the fraud we see in California – it is not just a California problem: it threatens the life of our Republic. I do hope Team Trump is looking at this – rumor is they are; what I’d like to see is all of the election workers in Los Angeles arrested on civil rights violations…by participating in a crooked system, they are violating the rights of the people. I do think the laws already on the books would cover this…because, remember, you don’t necessarily have to be a conscious part of the cheat to be guilty of participation in it…if a reasonable person would suspect, then you have to suspect.
But outside of that, our side has to stop giving in to it…not in any way, shape or form. Call it out. Call those defending it liars (because that is what they are). Stop trying to find legal loopholes for them…they won’t find one for you. In fact, they’ll indict you in a heartbeat on totally false charges if they think it’ll help their cause. The Democrats are not normal people – they are insane, dishonest, ignorant and cruel. It doesn’t matter if they fully understand how destructive they are – we must understand it, and act accordingly. They are out to totally destroy us on the false notion that we’re all little Hitlers in the making…we have to destroy them just because of this, lest they destroy us.
Blogs For Victory 
I was curious, so I did a search for “does any other country in the world do mail-in ballots besides the United States?” Apparently quite a few do. Then I added the word “unsolicited” in from of mail-in and got the same articles except at the bottom it noted that the word “unsolicited” was missing. The only exception on the first page of hits was Wikipedia. I don’t think that anyone objects to mail-in absentee ballots for people who are shut in or, for some reason, are not going to be able to vote on election day, but the mass mailing of unsolicited ballots is just stupid, and an open invitation to massive fraud.
Ballot harvesting is also legal in CA and anyone can gather ballots including political activists. There is also no voter id required so it would be impossible to fully prove the fraud and that is by design.
Mark, welcome to my club. I have been saying for quite a while now that Democrats are not our friends or fellow citizens and that we may have to kill them, something of which I am in favor of. Never forget, they threatened the life of Brent Kavanaugh, attempted to assassinate Trump 3x, and actually did assassinate Charlie Kirk. What more do we need to realize that we are at war?
I encourage all MAGA to get in the face of Democrats, argue, fight, intimidate, publicly humiliate, or hospitalize every Democrat you know. Don’t be friends with them or their family and never let them be at peace. I have no more fucks to give.
Perhaps there is another way.
Poll Finds Majority of Democrats Would Prefer Living Outside the United States
According to the Elon University/YouGov America 250 National Survey, 55 percent of Democrats answered “yes” when asked whether there is another country on Earth where they would rather live than America today. By comparison, just 10 percent of Republicans said they would prefer living elsewhere, while 38 percent of independents agreed with the sentiment.
I’m all for helping them. Maybe we should start a GoFundMe account to help in that process – IF they also renounce their US citizenship.

I once worked with a smart-ass college student who was always griping about how awful the United States is, and finally I asked him why he didn’t just leave. He said he would but he couldn’t afford to move to another country. I asked where he would rather live and he replied “India”. (My restraint in withholding comment on that was remarkable.)
I just said if he was serious I would pay his expenses to move to India, and I swear his eyes literally lit up. I reassured him that I was 100% serious. While he was getting all giddy I said as soon as he produced documentation that he had renounced his US citizenship and applied for citizenship in India we could work out the details and he was stunned. He freaked out at being told that the deal depended on him formally giving up his US citizenship so he could become a citizen of another country—-his lip actually started to quiver, especially when I said that with his attitude he was just a liability to the United States so he and the nation would be a lot better off if he just found a country he could respect and maybe actually contribute to.
And this is when I learned where the rubber meets the road—-it’s easy to bloviate all sorts of juvenile surliness, but actually ending a relationship with this country is something else entirely.
I also speculate that at least some of those Republicans are thinking in terms of retiring to another country, often for financial reasons, as Cluster has talked about retiring to Mexico, as countries like Portugal and Costa Rica have thriving ex-pat communities.
Disenfranchisement will be sufficient.
I still think that it would be effective to have a system that forces consequences on voters. That is, if the voters in a given state choose to elect officials who then allow or advocate election fraud and this is proved, not only are those officers held legally liable for election crimes the entire state is disenfranchised as it loses its representation in the Electoral College.
Put the responsibility for election integrity right back on the voters in any given state—it is or at least should be up to them to elect officials who will obey the law and run clean elections. This alone might do more to eliminate Identity Politics than anything else, forcing voters to consider something other than tribal identity or personality quirks when casting their votes in state elections.
Over the past few days I’ve been putting it thusly:
If your election allows common mail in voting; does not have extended time between voter registration and election day; does not require ID; allows ballot harvesting; takes more than 12 hours to count the vote; allows votes to arrive after close of polls on election day – then you have a fraudulent election. Doesn’t matter if all of that is legal and nobody is going outside the law to make it happen…it is a cheat, and designed that way. Its built to allow ballot box stuff with legal cover. This is why I think we must look into the federal civil rights laws as a remedy. Everyone participating in allowing a fraudulent vote is violating the rights of every citizen of the locality and State where it happens. Just need someone to swear out a complaint – “my vote was negated by a fraudulent ballot”. Find just one ballot that wasn’t on the level and then prosecute everyone.
I hope that elitist piece of shit John Thune is paying attention to CA and would get up off his ass and pass the SAVE Act. ANYONE who votes against the SAVE Act is a traitor. Period.
If I were to claim that elections in CA are rigged, would I be considered a racist? Asking for a friend

Are you a white male? Then OF COURSE you are a racist!
It’s inherent LOL
Conservatives understand that we/they can process information, evaluate it, analyze it and understand it without blindly accepting it and becoming committed to every nuance.
This article is a good example of that. There is a lot of interesting information, which I suggest calls for some investigation while bringing up some excellent points of discussion.
I’ve become fascinated by a man I had never heard of—-John Kiriakou. I am getting a lot out of clips from interviews and podcasts and have even started reading a couple of his books, but without agreeing with everything he says.
I admit to liking his personality, and his intelligence is obvious. But I am also impressed by his background—a normal guy joined the CIA, rose to a level of authority in the Agency, associated with the most powerful people in the government, worked as a case officer and field operative, and in general led a fascinating life.
My sense is that his stated political allegiance as a Democrat is more Identity Politics than anything else—at least after watching a lot of video clips and so on I have yet to see him state an objective political philosophy of governance—but he has a lot of harsh observations about the Dem party and even went to prison after being charged with violations of espionage laws when he went public about torture, etc. by the CIA. For someone as obviously brilliant as he is, he sometimes falls short of illustrating this, as in one clip he states that he is adamantly a Democrat but then says he is more of a Libertarian and then goes off on a goofball rambling “explanation” of Libertarianism that makes no sense at all.
He was not a Kerry fan, for example, or an Obama fan, but he loved McCain. But when he talks about his loyalty to McCain it’s always about personality—McCain never stopped supporting him when he was being charged with all the crimes the CIA piled up against him, and I can understand this.
The thing is, I am learning a lot—about the CIA, how government agencies work, how the average CIA operative works in the field, inside dope on political maneuvering, etc. even though sometimes the bias does show through. As a small-town Agri-American I admit to being somewhat starstruck, though about people in power much more that mere celebrity, and am fascinated by the little tidbits dropped into his conversations, of personality quirks of powerful people and anecdotes about them.
I recall how vehement my father was against any idea that I’d join the CIA. I was 18 and just idly rambling on about what I’d do and I had the childish view of 007-style life. Dad was actually kinda angry that I’d even consider it. Would not tell me exactly why he was so opposed but said that there is no way for a truly honest man to work at the CIA.
This wouldn’t be about keeping secrets – Dad kept the secrets entrusted to him. It was about what would be said, earnestly, which was 180 from reality. Now that I’m older and (we hope) wiser I better understand his opposition (and I’ve pieced two and two together and suspect Dad was in the CIA from 1948 to 1958, or at least working with the Agency). Let’s face it, the CIA – like all agencies of government – has told some whoppers over the decades. And the worst part is that some times the lies were the basis for policy. What can we make of Kiriakou? Hard to say – definitely a whistle-blower…but perhaps that whistle was blown on purpose? That is the real problem with CIA – and, indeed, our whole government – so much BS has been piled up over the decades that it is hard to tell at a glance who is part of the op. That his career at CIA was short (only a little longer than Dad’s) indicates to me he might have reached “fed up” levels…but has not, perhaps, fully thought over the implications. Dad did! But Dad was also a very brilliant man.
The more I learn about issues like those raised by Kiriakou the more I realize the inherent weaknesses of large entities. The more complex an organism is the more variables within it, and (I think) the more disruptive the negative elements can be. And the more important it is to understand that some people within an organization can do good things and that others can not only do some bad things but can have an influence out of proportion to their actual authority or number.
I just saw a clip of an interview with him in which he was absolutely furious and adamant about hating “the government”. The interviewer was another former CIA operative, Andrew Bustamante, who was astounded at Kiriakou’s vehemence. He kept saying things like “but your security is due to the government” and that Kiriakou’s gripe was really just with the CIA and Kiriakou was insistent that no, it was with “the government”.
It’s that broad-brush painting of an entire complex entity, the government of 300 million people, that undermines the ability to discern the Good Guys from the Bad Guys. Yes, the CIA has some bad apples and has done some terrible things, but it has also served this nation well in many ways.
TBF, we all have our doubts about “the government”. We all know that if a Democrat gets in after Trump, they’ll open the border, restore all the corruption and DEI will rule. If they get in with a trifecta, the filibuster is gone and the Court is packed (and if they can’t pack the Court, they’ll just ignore any ruling they disagree with). But, of course, that isn’t “the government”, it is the people in it – and I do believe that is crucial for us to keep in mind: the government hasn’t been ruining things…the people in government have. If we can get and keep sane people in there for 20 years, this can all be fixed.
