To quote from the RINO/Never Trump/NeoCon wing: “aaaahhhhhh! We’re all gonna die!!!!”.
That is the sum total of their election analysis.
Guys, as per usual, we don’t know the future. It will be what it will be! But it is very useful to keep in mind that the people who are telling you Trump is catastrophically unpopular are known and egregious liars. All of them. To a man/woman/xir – none of them have any relation with the truth. They lie. They lie all the time. They lie about everything. They even lie when the truth would work better for them. Could it be possible that this one, miraculous time they’re telling the truth? No. Liars are just that: liars. Unless they publicly repent of their public lies – naming the lies and apologizing for them – they can’t do other than lie. Anyone listening to such people is just being a fool – or part of the op to depress GOP turnout.
And from what I have seen, except for North Carolina and Pennsylvania, GOP turnout is great. The latest election analysis out of Texas had to exclude all the Trump +20 counties to get Democrat turnout into a position to say that Talarico has a shot. Yes, they are lying that brazenly. But the reality is that Talarico is being kept afloat by one Democrat billionaire who seems to have been an Epstein client though for some strange reason the MSM is silent on that – the Democrats aren’t actually putting any serious money into Texas. Because they know it is a pipe dream. That is, not the Blue Tsunami we’re being promised.
I see us with 54 Senate seats and 220 House seats after the election. The House could easily flip the other way because it is so narrow. On the other hand, the recent actions against illegals voting is going to make a lot of ballot box stuffers nervous. Sure, you’re safe from California law enforcement, but not the Feds. And even if the Democrats win Congress, Federal law enforcement is still under Trump for more than two years. Essentially, by going after fraud, Trump is going to depress Democrat vote totals…the reverse of what Democrats are trying to do with GOP voters via psy-ops.
In the end, it is a contest between liars and Trump – can the liars stop Trump from getting MAGA to the polls? We find out on the 3rd. If MAGA shows, we win – and might win by some rather spectacular margins.
Side note – the DNC entered October with a net of $4.2 million in hand. The GOP? $97.3 million. House and Senate campaign committees (which have a lot of different funding sources) are more even.
Regarding that voter fraud case – the State of California admitted it has no mechanism to determine if a registered voter is a citizen. This means (as we all already knew) that the claim that voter fraud is rare in California is simply ridiculous. On the results of elections in California hundreds of billions of dollars (federal, State and local) flow. Thieves will not let that money flow honestly if they can in any way divert it – and the best way to divert is to ensure only the most stupid and/or corrupt people are elected, regardless of who votes.
I doubt California has had a truly honest election in the last twenty years.
Trump has the worst poll number at this point in the presidency of any president since polling started. He is holding his rallies in high school gyms and he still can’t fill them, Musk put 167 million of his own money in the Texas race and the polls still show democrats ahead. seriously doubt that Republicans hold both the house and the Senate and there is a very good chance they lose both. I’m guessing Dems end up with 230 seats in the house and 52 in the Senate.
Casper do love him his polls, don’t he? And he never learns. I’ll bet he still has those Harris polls that he loved so much, fondling them lovingly and remembering the good times they had together, the warm fuzzies of their promise of a joyful victory. His wishful thinking is kind of sweet, in a way, like still believing in the tooth fairy. But then you have to believe in magical thinking to vote Dem at all, though with Dems this giddy conviction that their political model will, somehow, in some way, finally bring about something other than economic misery, loss of liberty and (if allowed to go to its natural conclusion) complete tyranny is also mixed with a malignant irrational hatred of an Invented Other. So it’s not just a goofy starry-eyed propaganda-fed yearning for a Big Rock Candy Mountain, it’s also tinged with nastiness and negativity and irrational hatred.
At least he admits he is just guessing, though true honesty would admit to mere hoping.
You know what he never mentions? What his tribal preferences would accomplish to make this a better nation. He never talks about why he prefers a system that consolidates power in the hands of a few elites instead of spreading the authority for running the country among the people, as the Founders intended. He never explains why he would want someone like El-Sayed, with his entire history and family history behind him of hating America and loving and supporting her enemies in our Senate. He never explains why he would prefer to have that weird little anti-Christian troll doll Talarico making decisions for the country.
I’ve never even seen a hint of actual thought in any of his mental meanderings, as he collects his masters’ talking points and waddles over here to show them off. He just babbles his scripted “thoughts”.
Wow – you really do just get your news from the TV these days, don’t you?
We’ll just see if you show up the day after the election. As I recall, you didn’t two years ago. Something go wrong?
Seems like a good place to repeat the question I asked Casper last week. I’d give him the benefit of a doubt that he just didn’t see it, but I posted it twice. It was in response to Cluster saying that Casper really didn’t need to comment, because his comments were just rinse and repeat Leftist talking points.
Yes Spook I do comment on other sites. As for why I comment here, there are a number of reasons which I will keep to myself for now. The next year or two will be interesting to say the least. I am curious how all of you will handle the Cognitive dissonance you have to be feeling at this point.
I don’t watch TV news except in passing. The Mrs, for instances, loves the Gutfeld show so I’ll sometimes see a bit of news before or after it is on (I rarely watch the show, myself). Given this, I have nothing but facts to go on…what I can see in actual data points (which are available all over the place if you look for them) combined with my own rather extensive knowledge. I see nothing to indicate a Blue Tsunami. The Democrats are horrifically unpopular. Their policies get like 20% support when they are explained. Only fraud and morons who watch TV keep them afloat – and may, indeed, give them the House. But they aren’t going to win in some sort of crushing fashion…and they will lose in 2028 because they will nominate a completely out of touch idiot.
“Their policies get like 20% support when they are explained.” Which is why they never explain them. When is the last time you saw a Dem running on the actual political philosophy of the Left, which is consolidation of power in a few elites who then impose that power from their massively powerful Central Authority?
Never, is when. They run a huge shell game in which for example the alleged goal is something like “cleaner water” but this is really just a stalking horse for the true agenda of putting unelected political appointees in powerful positions like agency heads, where they can essentially legislate without the participation or even oversight of our only legal legislative body, Congress.
Behind every Leftist platitude is the quest for power. And they know this has to be hidden, so they depend on identity Politics, where people run against people instead of an election that is a choice between models of governance. If they run on that, they lose. So they run on single issues of they can stir up emotion about them, like gas prices. Or they just run as conservatives, wolves draped in costumes to look like harmless sheep when they know as soon as elected those sheep will be dinner.
Cognitive dissonance – LOL. Talk about projection.
To paraphrase Mandy Patinkin’s great line from The Princess Bride, I don’t think that word means what you think it means. In fact, I’d bet that you just thought it sounded intellectual. Thanks for finally answering (sort of), though.
I will say this about the next couple of years. We survived Obama AND Biden. I can’t imagine anything in the next couple of years that could top that. If, at the end of Trump’s term, everything is pretty good, will you promise to stop coming here?
I know exactly what Cognitive dissonance means and I know there are a lot of Trump supporters feeling it right now. Trump is obviously falling apart both mentally and physically. The cognitive test he keeps bringing up is designed to determine whether a person has dementia. His doctors wouldn’t have him take it unless there weren’t concerns.
I’ll take that as a NO.
The cognitive test he keeps bringing up is designed to determine whether a person has dementia. His doctors wouldn’t have him take it unless there weren’t concerns.
And yet he keeps accomplishing more than any president in our lifetimes, maybe ever. And I don’t seem to recall your concern when the same concerns were raised about Biden. And THOSE concerns were REAL!
This is typical of the weasels of the Left: constantly accuse the president of having dementia and then when he chooses to rebut these claims by producing tests proving that he does not they smugly sneer that “His doctors wouldn’t have him take it unless there weren’t concerns.”
First, there is the sly implication that the test was recommended by his doctors, instead of Trump insisting that the test be administered to shut up the toxic flying monkeys of the Left, and of course the ridiculous assertion that doing this somehow “proves” the very thing it disproves.
When you read Casper’s babbling, his connecting of dots that do not exist, his fantasizing about imaginary victories somehow to be accomplished by the least qualified people in politics, his claim that the intellectual dimwits Hirono and Harris are “brilliant” etc. he is the poster child of cognitive dissonance, when you consider the other definition of this, which is refusal to accept facts and insisting on continuing to believe things that are disproved. While simply being glaringly wrong on absolutely everything could be attributed to mere stupidity, the conviction of being right in the face of consistent wrongness is a classic example of cognitive dissonance.
Evidently one of the yellow journalism rags he depends on for his daily injection of hate-driven ignorance used the term, and here he obediently comes waddling in to try to apply it to the very people who illustrate its obverse.
As I have noted, Casper in his dotage appears to have developed the aspiration of becoming increasingly snide and nasty, instead of just dopey and clueless. The thing is, he isn’t even very good at that, instead just constantly stepping on rakes. One might try to excuse him by pointing out his dependence on the lying media, but there are too many blatant contradictions to those lies in plain sight to be able to give him a pass by saying he is just parroting what he is told.
If you look at what he bleats about as “failures” of Trump, and apply logic, this is what you get:
1) Casper prefers to have the United States continue to be represented in formal ceremonies with heads of state by forcing them to eat in tents, with Porta-Potties cluttering up the Rose Garden, rather than in an elegant building that is paid for by donations in which the United States can project class and respect for those heads of state, and at the same time replace a shabby, worn-out ugly old building that has far outlived its usefulness.
2) Casper is big mad at the idea of disarming a nation which has repeatedly stated its intent—not just desire but INTENT—to kill every American and destroy this nation, and he just can’t get over his fury at having a president who is focused on national defense.
3.) Casper not only wants the United States to be represented in state dinners and functions at a level barely above Dogpatch (which might very well reflect his own standards and comfort zone) he wants to continue to have a fetid swamp of foul smelling algae as the centerpiece of our two most important historical monuments. He is simply outraged at the idea of finding this a repellent and inappropriate representation of our nation’s capital city and finding it necessary to remove this stagnant eyesore to be able to replace it.
4) Casper, in a semi-literate misuse of words, is quite fretful at the very idea that a president who is engaging in diplomatic discussions with heads of state who represent nations which have historically not been our friends is doing so in a diplomatic manner. Evidently on Planet Casper “diplomacy” is defined as being rude and belligerent toward people with whom the diplomat is actually supposed to be finding common ground and cooperation. Not totally hard to understand coming from a man with such limited social skills, but still, it is odd to see someone whining that a diplomat is too, well, diplomatic. Evidently in his little bubble, courtesy is defined as “kissing up” to people. Again, given his accelerating descent into increasing rudeness this is not really surprising.
5) Casper seems to think that Trump has ruined or at least damaged relations with our “allies”. Of course he has no proof of this, or even examples, though I imagine he would point to the increasing rift between the United States and the United Kingdom. Susan Kokinda could explain this and justify it, but this would be far beyond Casper’s intellectual bandwidth and it wouldn’t back up the narrative fed to him by his masters. He also has to ignore the new or expanded relationships throughout Central and South America and the Middle East forged by Trump.
6) Casper would rather have attendees at the once-great Kennedy Center have to continue to dodge falling ceilings and tolerate mold, peeling wallpaper and the other signs of decay rather than renovate it.
When you look at how Casper wants the United States to be represented to the world I have to think this is a reflection of his own standards and possibly an unwelcome peek into how he himself lives. He objects to maintenance, he objects to renovation, he objects to improvements, he objects to analyzing problems and then working to solve them. He even seems to object to replacing outdoor toilets with modern plumbing. To use his own words, he finds all of this “negative”
Spook,
I would agree that Trump has accomplished more than any president in our lifetimes,, but I would suggest that most of it is negative. Destroying the White House East wing, The Reflecting pool, and the Kennedy Center. Starting with war that has cost us over twenty dead and hundreds of wounded military personal along with the destruction over over a dozen bases. Wreaking our relationship with our allies while kissing up to various dictators. Not a good record.
You give me a headache, Casper. I’m going to let Amazona, or Cluster, or maybe Mark tackle this mishmash of lies, half-truths, and slander.
Caspers mind is gone. One thing I have to laugh at is when Democrats try and convince people that everyone hates Trump. Trump is LOVED by 98%+ of those who voted for him, who are now joined by a large contingent of Jews thanks to the rabid antisemitism in the Democrat Party, and I don’t think any other President has kept this large of a devotion amongst his supporters over their terms.
Trump is the best President in my lifetime and Reagan is a distant second.
Good luck with your manufactured narrative Cap.
“Trump is LOVED by 98%+ of those who voted for him,”
No, he is loved by 98% of MAGA which makes up19 to 25% of the American population. Not so much by the rest of us.
You have no idea what “MAGA” is, what it means to people, or how it motivates people who truly do love this country and want to pull it out of the muck and mire of Leftism. You just pull those claims and figures out of your ass, or the Complicit Agenda Media, not that there is much difference.
When you decided to throw sanity overboard, clearly honesty was the next thing to go.
He got 50% of the vote. 77.3 million votes. Eight million more than Barry got in 2008 with the MSM slavishly devoted to him. Given his ability to grow his vote by 2028 if he could run again he’d get 84 million votes.
He’s not unpopular.
He’s also not running, but the zombies are eagerly falling into the trap of howling about how his “numbers are down”. Their ability to focus on the inconsequential and insignificant is astounding. Example: Trump goes to promote a local candidate, in his or her local area, so has a rally in that district for that person—and the Moron Brigade howls its gleeful analysis that his popularity is waning because he is holding rallies in local arenas.
Well, DUH! Why would anyone put on a huge rally in a stadium for a Senate candidate in a specific state? Of course these people have no concept of local vs federal, state sovereignty vs central authority, the different roles of different offices, etc.
The utter stupidity of these people is amazing—or would be, if we didn’t read the dreck they find compelling and get clues to their lack of even basic intelligence and reasoning ability.
“Caspers mind is gone.”
Not true. Unlike Trump I’ve never been asked to take the Montreal Cognitive Assessment.
What is the source of your claim that “someone asked” Trump to take this test? Seriously? You really believe that if a doctor told Trump he needed to be tested for dementia Trump would not only meekly go along with this and then talk openly about the results? You do realize, don’t you, that your ridiculous claim only supports the observation that your mind is “gone”?
As usual, you have everything backwards and upside down. Trump asked to be tested, after the scurrilous and vile accusations made about his mental competence, and then he was quite eager to publicize the results.
You really are a nasty little piece of work, Casper, and in a death spiral of accelerating mental and emotional disintegration. That “strong woman” you are allegedly married to needs to rein you in, like your first wife did—unless she is motivating this descent into deeper delusion and sheer malice and stupidity.
I feel sorry for you Casper. You’re a weird little man.
He used to just be weird. Now he is an ugly weird little man, illustrating his aspiration to become completely honesty-free and depend solely on spite and malice.
As for why I comment here, there are a number of reasons which I will keep to myself for now.
I’ll take a WAG and say “because this time it’ll be different,” and you’re hedging your bets.
Spook, I think you give Casper too much credit
There’s only one reason for Casper to keep coming here, and it’s related to his pathology. He can coyly hint at some reason that is not related to him getting some sick gratification at being insulted or a truly astounding level of being unmoored from reality but when you get down to it he has never, in a single post, brought anything of value or even interest to this blog, and has a pretty unbroken record of just cluttering it up with nonsense and mental excrement. The change I have seen is in his deteriorating mental state but as it is in the direction of becoming a terrible person I can’t feel empathy for him. He has made the choice to seek out the ugly and negative and I just accept that and what it says about him as a human being, and dismiss him.
By going after Social Security fraud he is doing more to preserve the system than any American politician has since FDR implemented it.
https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/social-security-corrects-nearly-50-million-records-largest-ssn-cleanup-agency-history
Reagan, working with Democrat House Speaker Tip O’Neil, fixed Social Security for a generation back in the 80s. Bush 43 had a window of opportunity in the early 2000s to affect a permanent fix, but Democrats blocked it. Since then, Obama, Trump in his first term, Biden, and legislators on both sides of the aisle just ignored the problem. In all fairness, Trump 45 was pretty busy getting impeached and hounded by Democrats and even some in his own party. Now it looks like he seriously wants saving Social Security to be a major part of his legacy. I would think Casper would applaud that.
The CNN Representative just chimed in
Let’s not forget, the Democrats have not a real primary since 2009. Obama was the incumbent in 2012, Hillary was installed in 2016, and Biden was installed in 2020. Democrats have also rigged elections in IL, OR, WA, and NY … CA is not the only one. The Democrat party and Democrat voters are the biggest threat to our way of life.
Trump just keeps improving things in this country

So much news about fraud and incompetence of Democrats is coming out now, it’s hard to keep up with …. Here’s this
California funneled nearly $369 million in federal aid intended for victims of its deadliest wildfire year to low-income housing developers — without requiring them to house a single wildfire survivor, a California Post investigation found.
The staggering sum was awarded to developers while thousands of Californians struggled to rebuild their lives after the devastating 2018 fires, which killed 103 people and damaged or destroyed more than 24,000 structures.

Maybe there’s a tenth circle of Hell that Dante didn’t visualize for people who would do stuff like this.
Jeff Childers came up with a nifty, 1-page, AI generated election cheat sheet that anyone can use by plugging in their individual precinct info.
He offers this clarifying info about AI:
Casper should read today’s Coffee & Covid. The entire “Essential News & Commentary” segment is devoted to fake polls.
So they want us to believe that even though the media is dishonest in most of their reporting, they are completely honest with their polls? Remember Hillary had a 92% chance of winning and Kamala led by 3 points in Iowa just days before the election. And if you believe that, call me for some great real estate opportunities.
Relevant to Casper and his beloved polls:
“A polling firm that spent months pumping out numbers in key races across the country admitted Tuesday evening that nearly all of them were fake.
Wedgewood Polls now claims the entire operation was a social experiment meant to expose lazy vetting in the polling world. Some election observers aren’t buying that explanation, and the timing of the confession gives them every reason to doubt it.
In its statement, Wedgewood cast itself as a kind of whistleblower. “Having previously worked in the polling and research sector, we watched as the public’s trust in polling eroded alongside a rise in unverified, low-quality methodology,” the firm said.
It then described what it claimed was the project’s goal. “We wanted to test a simple hypothesis: How easy is it for an entirely fabricated polling firm to gain traction, be taken seriously, and expose how little scrutinization exists in media and public commentary? The short answer: Far too easy.”
The statement also turned to the aggregators that published its work. “Despite having no history, formal credentials, or real data behind the vast majority of our releases, Wedgewood Polling was added to major polling aggregators, including The New York Times, FiftyPlusOne, and VoteHub, and repeatedly treated as a legitimate data source,” Wedgewood claimed.
Next, the firm addressed the press. “Our fabricated numbers were given instant credibility across national media platforms—including being cited on air and in reporting by outlets such as MS NOW,” it added. “The ease with which unverified figures were absorbed into mainstream political narratives highlights a systemic breakdown in media vetting and data aggregation.”
Mark Mitchell, the head pollster of The Honest Poll, didn’t buy that explanation for a second.
Cooper Burton, a data scientist at FiftyPlusOne, responded to Wedgewood’s statement within hours.
Once Wedgewood went public, FiftyPlusOne published its investigation early. The report took on the firm’s claim that nobody checked its credentials.
Their statement alleges that FiftyPlusOne, the New York Times, and other poll aggregators did not conduct appropriate vetting of their firm prior to aggregating their polls; this is false. We reached out to them to ask who they were and confirm the methodology statement on their website. We were given two names, Jack Sims and Andrew Prater. We were able to independently confirm that Sims had previous experience in the polling industry and reviewed their methodology statement in detail. It is not atypical for a pollster to leave an existing firm, form their own, and self-fund some surveys to build reputation; we had no reason at the time to believe this case was any different. Wedgewood operated as if it were a legitimate polling firm, including collecting money from donors to conduct crowd-funded polls, and sharing raw survey data (which we now have confirmed was fraudulent) with FiftyPlusOne on Oct. 15, 2026.
Imagine that — Wedgewood took money from donors and handed over raw data it had invented. Sorry, but that’s not a harmless experiment. In fact, these phony numbers did have real-world impact.
El-Sayed leaned heavily on Wedgewood’s polling to sell Democrat voters on his electability. Mallory McMorrow, who ran against him in the Michigan primary, took to X to describe what the stunt cost her campaign. She pointed to a late-June Wedgewood poll that showed her sinking into single digits, numbers she said contradicted her campaign’s internal polling. In the aftermath, her donations dried up, her volunteers were left devastated and begging for direction, and reporters bombarded her with calls to get out of the race.
Without a doubt, a fake poll can affect an election. It can stop a candidate from raising money, boost another candidate, or cause a party to invest in a place it otherwise wouldn’t. And it can lead voters to think the result is already decided before any ballot has been cast.”
And it can spin braindead zombies like Casper into giddy celebrations of imaginary successes and anticipated victories, after defrauding legitimate candidates and contributing to the rigging of elections.
Yes, RIGGING OF ELECTIONS. An element of election fraud, that non-existent fabrication by the Right that still keeps showing up, time after time, in place after place, as the desperate and degenerate Left tries to steal this country. Which they could not do without the help of the willfully stupid, like Casper.
At the end of Childs’ entry is this:
“So, that’s two fake polling companies that imploded in disgrace in the same election cycle. Both pro-Democrat. The unanswered question is: how many more Wedgewoods are there?”
All of them, IMO.
If the product is free, then you are the product. Polls are free – the people are the product. They are not in any way designed to inform but only to cultivate. To make people think things are a certain way – a way desired by whomever is paying for the poll. To me, there was always an inherent bias in the polls. We could see that in 1980 when they had Reagan with a slight lead two days before he totally destroyed Carter. But since 1994, at least, the polls have been designed to deliberately mislead people…they are propaganda. An effort to script a result. The polls this year (as they have been for a while) are designed to get Democrats to vote and GOPers to stay home.
I call them “herding polls” as their purpose is to herd the ignorant into voting a certain way or not voting at all. As you say, they hope to discourage the people from the party that is allegedly losing, so they will just give up and not vote at all, as well as to gin up enthusiasm for the “winning” side. It’s all just a version of election rigging, along with media promotion of one party over another (propaganda).
Casper – “He’s a conman with a long record of grifting”
OK, then prove it or STFU. Don’t just throw this vague shit out there without any documentation. So prove it. I am so fucking tired of people like you.
Maybe he was referring to Slick Willie.
While the adults in the room are talking about serious matters, Casper has temper tantrums, pounding the table in fury because no one wants to join him in his panty-sniffing obsession about things he thinks Trump once did that offend him so deeply it’s like a bleeding wound.
Fraud? BUT TRUMP…!
Election rigging? BUT TRUMP…!
Plotting against the United States? BUT TRUMP…!
Seditious cabals embedded in the highest levels of our military? BUT TRUMP…!
Conspiracies to overturn the Constitution? BUT TRUMP…!
His aspirations peak at constantly elevating his spite and malice, and being able to wallow in his obsessive hatred of Donald Trump.
Talarico just said, “we all know the Supreme Court is corrupt”
PROVE IT!!! What has been corrupt? I am so fucking tired of piece of shit people lobbing false accusations and never held to account. This is what children do Casper ….
This is a great story …
The Wide Awakes were a Republican group of young men organized to escort and protect Republican speakers during the highly contentious election of 1860. The men would wear uniforms hats and march with lanterns to protect Republican speakers in northern states from unruly political opponents.
The organization of mostly young working-class men did not sit home or cower from the political violence of the day.
I am tempted to start a chapter lol. This is the mindset MAGA needs to adopt. We need to circle the wagons and call out the liars and rioters and actually do something with them. MAGA is the party of decency, peace, stability, and growth and for our grandchildren’s sake, we should defend that with our lives

Yesterday Coffee & Covid highlighted DataRepublican’s expose’ of the difference between Conservative charity and Liberal charity. Today she highlight’s her exposure of a massive conspiracy to overthrow our government involving 300 former USAID officials. I know I reference Coffee & Covid a lot, but I believe he is truly doing God’s work.
The four X posts that DataRepublican has posted so far are worth a read along with the accompanying videos. We are dealing with some serious and dangerous nutcases. Hopefully the DOJ is all over this.
Backing up a little to the immediate post-J6 days, I did an online search for the actual legal definition of “insurrection” and it was basically the same across the board: an effort to overthrow a government and assume its powers. Some sources referenced violence/rioting by noting that a riot is not in and of itself an act of insurrection but is a separate offense if the stated intent of the riot is not to overthrow a government or assume its powers. (And, as we know and even attorney Liz Cheney knew, not a single J6 participant ever stated or even implied a desire or intent to overthrow the government and assume its powers. Only people on the Left have had this agenda.)
Logically, the inverse is also true: that an insurrection can be attempted without violence, without rioting, if the intent of the participants is to overthrow the government and assume its powers. And we saw this agenda testing the waters in 2017 with #RESIST, which was a nonviolent effort to undermine, if not totally “overthrow” the Trump administration and assume its powers. This shameful movement included members of Congress and military officers.
Because this movement was never officially defined as what it was, an insurrection effort, it slipped beneath the radar and has resurfaced in a more detailed, more modern, more well-financed iteration which is less coy in admitting its goal is to overthrow the existing (elected) government and assume its powers.
18 U.S.C. § 2383 – U.S. Code – Unannotated Title 18. Crimes and Criminal Procedure § 2383. Rebellion or insurrection
Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff
Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.
Against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof. Seems pretty clear to me.
It would sure help clear out Congress and the military
“gives aid or comfort thereto” would certainly include all donors and financiers of these insurrectionist movements, expanding the scope of investigation and prosecution. And, if a donor were to be a naturalized citizen, denaturalization with the attendant inability to legally donate to American political parties or candidates.
From your article: “It almost seems unfair. One deaf software engineer from Utah spoiled the careful plans of 300 ex-USAID color revolutionaries, a 1,600-member flag-officer network, the Democratic Socialists of America, and the Washington Post’s anonymous sources— all in under a week. “
This is the most ominous of all the Usual Suspects: a 1,600-member flag-officer network. It looks like time for some courts-martial activity. ( the former military members, who remain subject to military justice, might have even bigger problems (I’m looking at you, Admiral Smith, and your googly Sanpaku eyes). And if any members of Congress, from either house, are involved they need to go, too.
The timing of this was certainly superb – right before the midterms.
It would matter more if Dems didn’t vote based on tribal allegiance, and actually looked at the system they are enabling and supporting and its patters of violating the law, including the Constitution. It would matter more if they CARED
“Beyond Jack Smith’s “smart” theory, the Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C. § 253) doesn’t require any actual riots either. It covers any and making treaties with foreign governments. This reminds us of the Constitution’s Article I, Section 10, which bars states from making “any Agreement or Compact… with a foreign Power” without Congress’s consent, and the plan’s “outreach to foreign governments” looks more like sedition than suggestion.”
The crimes just keep piling up.
And isn’t this ( “unlawful combination, or conspiracy” that obstructs federal law”) a description of refusing federal authority illustrated by every “sanctuary” declaration by every governor, mayor, and/or police chief or sheriff in the country?
It is their last play – and the arrest of Omar (her alleged name) shows they have to move fast…if they can’t force Trump off of this sort of thing, they’re all cooked because they were all in on it.
Another important paragraph:
This ties in directly with her revelation yesterday about Anthropic’s plan to fund “lots of little Soroses”. DOGE cut off their taxpayer funding.
And now the private money is at risk, if the recipients of that money are careless in talking about activities that are actually against the law, such as 18 U.S.C. § 2383, and thereby exposing those donors to prosecution for “giving aid or comfort” to anyone inciting, assisting or engaging in “any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof”.
That could be as simple as buying the bricks the rioters throw at ICE agents as they engage in “rebellion against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof”. Any support for these rebels against the laws of the country, whether it be paying for transportation to riot sites or buying materials used in the attacks or even just paying for lodging and meeting space, could be considered complicity in violating the law. And an aggressive DOJ can certainly do a good job of following the money.
It’s time to cut off the heads of the snakes.
I missed this the first time through. It kind of adds a “stupid crooks” angle to the story:
At the end of the day, Leftists, in general, are just not very bright. We even have our own resident poster child who proves that with virtually every post.
And to add icing to the cake, the Washington Post confirms the story, even though they made a lame effort to try to spin away the significance of it.
This morning, Stephen Kruiser writes:
Emotions have always been the cornerstone of what the Democratic Party is all about. Their policies have never withstood intellectual scrutiny, so they manipulate the voters’ emotions in order to polish up the fecal nuggets that they are selling.
It’s been a good gig for them. Democrats aren’t bound by any kind of code that requires honesty, so they are able to promise anything and everything, all the while insisting that taxpayer-funded programs are “free.”
The thing is, the Democrats of yesteryear had a lot of emotions. Here in the Trump era, anger is the only thing that any of them are feeling. Their big policy pitch to the electorate is, “We hate Trump.” Yes, they’re still promising “free” stuff, but even that has taken a back seat to the Trump hate. Most Dem candidates this year can’t string together two sentences without saying “Trump.”
Trump Derangement Syndrome makes that anger bubble to the surface in very ugly ways. It also renders them unable to mask the ugliness, even during an important election year. Here’s an example of that from noted Dem voter Stella Parton, which my Twitchy colleague Just Mindy wrote about. This is from her post:
I think that because most Dems have never had a coherent POLITICAL foundation but have always been guided/manipulated by emotion, they don’t even miss the total absence of even a pretense of actual political content in their campaigns. All they’ve got it hate, and they are perfectly happy with that. The sheer ugliness of Parton’s comment is quite acceptable to her tribe, and probably celebrated.
Kruiser goes on to say: “I think that this mood is permanent. A big victory won’t make the Democrats even a little bit happier. They have a sick gift for finding reasons to be aggrieved under any circumstances.” And that is not only sad but accurate—-the Dem party has become the Victimhood Party, the Hate Party, and as he points out the Grievance Party. And we can see, here and in other places, the kind of person attracted to these identities.
(The term Dung Beetle comes to mind.)
Now that I think about it, there must be a competition on the Left for Most Vicious and Delusional Bitch. Sorry, Stella, but the competition is too fierce even for someone like you. For example, there is Jennifer Welch whose spittle-flying tirade about JD Vance is going to be hard to beat, even among the howling harpies of the Left.
Jen reaches into the toilet of her mind, where she has deposited the excrement she seems to think are “ideas” to display them, and it’s quite a performance. We, of course, know JD as a bright and genial guy who lifted himself out of bone-crushing poverty and a family life of a drug-addicted mother who basically abandoned him to the care of his grandmother. From this, and the economic graveyard of Appalachia, he got himself educated, got accepted to Yale, graduated, started successful businesses, married a lovely woman from India, and has given every indication of being a loving husband and devoted father to their children—one of whom is only a few weeks old. Not to mention that he has been an excellent Vice President to the United States, with grace and good humor and unfailing loyalty.
But Jen has a secret window into the Real Truth about JD Vance, the truth so successfully hidden that no one ever had a clue that it even existed. But she tells us. Boy howdy, does she tell us, with venom dripping from her fangs as she spits out what SHE has been able to discern about him.
JD Vance thinks two years from now he’s going to be president of the United States, and we need to keep firing, pistols firing at all times towards this guy, because he is not fit to be a father. He’s not fit to be a husband. He’s not fit to be a vice president. He is a failed drag queen and a pathological liar to his core.
He’s not just a white supremacist, hiding behind a convenient but fake brown-skinned family, he acts like ” a complete Antichrist-style sociopath”. He is so vile that we should “keep firing, pistols firing at all times towards this guy”. Yes, she advocates killing him because he is, according to her and the screeching voices in her head:
not fit to be a husband
not fit to be a vice president
a failed drag queen (my favorite)
and a pathological liar to his core
Just as other venomous reptiles are immune to their own toxin, it looks like the Dem version is also able to generate and spew poison and still remain above room temperature.
Heh!
