Polls as late as a week ago had Likud getting as few as 18 seats in the Israeli elections. Kalshi had Netanyahu at a 16% chance of returning. Exit polls as the polls closed showed Netanyahu defeated. The reality? 28 Likud seats as of this moment and the consensus is the most likely Prime Minister remains Netanyahu. We’ll see how that shakes out, of course – still a lot of votes to actually count. Israel is also famous for very factional politics with alliances shifting like sand. But the bottom line is that the polls, Kalshi and the exit polls were lies. Not mistakes. Lies. Bald faced, egregious lies designed to obtain a certain result…in this case to demoralize Netanyahu’s coalition in hopes that a surrender caucus of some sort would emerge in charge…some Left-infected group which would figure that just a bit more Israeli surrender would stop the Palestinians from wanting to murder every single Jew in Israel.
Just keep that in mind in this last week before our elections. Also, try to remember how you felt a week out from 2024 – I’ll bet you were nervous. I was. And I had long ago figured them all for liars…but even I wasn’t immune to the relentless barrage of lies. They were so pervasive that they sink into everyone. The Communists learned this a long time ago…just keep lying and lying and lying and never telling anyone even remotely what is going on or what people are thinking. Even the stoutest heart and the most independent mind is caught up in them…as for the mentally weak…well, they’re going to vote Democrat. We don’t know what will happen – but, guys, we’ve already won.
As Kurt Schlichter points out, we’re forever rid of Cormyn, Thillis, Massie, Bacon and Cassidy. Oh, sure, we’ve got a few left in our ranks, but we’re rapidly disinfecting ourselves from the RINOs. The Democrats who only ever ran as Republicans because voter registration showed that was the path to power and to the gravy train…and the means to backstab the base at every opportunity. They’re gone. Even if we’re in the Congressional minority come January, the caucus that represents us will fight a heck of a lot harder against the Democrat than any previous GOP caucus. We won’t have but one or two who will on “principle” vote in favor of the Democrats next clown show impeachment. And this much stronger party will head towards 2028 far more united and willing to battle it out.
But, side note, I don’t think we’re going to lose.
Brazilian patriot Flavio Bolsonaro has obtained asylum inside the United States. The Left in Brazil clearly cheated the Communist tyrant Lula into another term – like our 2020 election, there is just no mathematical way he got as many votes as claimed. And, also like ours, there was gross chicanery in the fact that Lula’s judicial poodle ordered voting extended hours after the polls were supposed to be closed and the ballot boxes all sealed…that is, there was no legal way for anyone to vote by the time the judicial order came down…and all the extra votes poured in from areas controlled by the Brazilian Left.
We’ll have to see how all this plays out, but it looks like we might have to “Maduro” the Lula regime.
The Royal Sonesta is a first rate hotel in downtown Portland, Oregon. I looked at some pictures – it really is quite a fabulous place. Probably, in normal times, way outside my price range. In 2016 it was purchased for a bit more than $108 million. It just sold again for just over $6.8 million. A 93% decline. Why? Because Portland is now a third world garbage dump of crime, drugs and commies. This is what the Left does – it hates and so it destroys. Nobody who destroyed Portland cares that it is destroyed – they are still able to siphon money off the city…to get paid for not working. And being Leftists they have no idea of what beauty is so living in a dump doesn’t seem so bad.
But most of us aren’t Leftists. As I’ve said for some time now, the Constitution requires the federal government to ensure each State has a republican form of government…I am ever more of the opinion – because no free and fair election could result in a government that destroys the political entity it rules – that the Leftist States and localities do not have such form of government. We might eventually have to brace ourselves to reduce the deep blue States to territorial status and create new governments actually responsive to the electorate.
