How is this for statement of the day:

"Connecting Biden to his corruption is verboten because if the feds start going after actual corruption, the District of Columbia would collapse."

THAT is The United States in a nutshell.

Tony ,you nailed it but why must we Americans rely on foreign journalist reporters to publish?

Back around 2010, I had a housemate who told me about RTV--Russian TV. I liked their objective spin. American media deals ONLY in Dishonesty. If they told the truth, no one would watch them cuz it would show just how much the media has strayed from the truth. I tossed my TV well over 10 years ago and have NEVER looked back. Besides, most of your media is run by homosexuals and a queers whole life is based on dishonesty. That's why they need to show their "Pride."

The Obama deep state must have thought one term of Biden-Harris would secure the downfall of America. They overplayed their hand, although, we must admit they are very close to succeeding.

One miscalculation they made was how much their Biden-Harris puppet picks would destroy their credibility within their own ranks. Even a classic democrat RFK, jr sees them as the enemy. They have made it a lot harder to win another term of destruction - especially with the small - but significant - changes being made in election integrity. There is a LOT more to do for election integrity, but it will be much harder to steal the election in 2024. Not that they won't try.

The American dream of personal liberty is hanging by a thread and the Dems have made it a lot harder on themselves. We need to be many good people doing a million small things to beat this corruption.

Jim, there is much more to do than what has been done but things are being done. Some states have done more than others on election integrity. For a summary on the Ups and Downs (yes, some states may be even worse than before), I include an article from the Heritage Foundation. Some of the states you mention are covered in some form in this article - but not a lot of detail - sorry.

https://www.heritage.org/election-integrity/commentary/election-integrity-2022-review-more-improvements-damage

Here's a twitter piece for Arizona. I don't trust Bill Barr, but it is still a small win for a tough state - especially with Maricopa County.

https://www.heritage.org/election-integrity/commentary/election-integrity-2022-review-more-improvements-damage

Perhaps the biggest win is that 2023 polling is showing that a majority of voters - both parties - believe the 2020 election was not "above board". People are fed up. The states you mention are critical, but election fraud has occurred in every state. It all needs to be addressed.

Are we sure the HF piece isn't wishful thinking if the republic the founders left us was still in existence?

HF sometimes looks to me to be balancing the Neocons with the true conservatives but the article cites real examples, court decisions, and law changes. It certainly doesn't mean the CCP leftists won't find new ways to cheat.

More lessons today. Death by cherries and El Bow.

Here’s an amazing bit of trivia:

When Harrison died, John Tyler took over. Tyler was born in 1790. Harrison Tyler was born in 1928. He is the GRANDSON of John Tyler. Harrison Tyler is still alive.

Someone born in 1790 still has a living grandson!!!!!!

I recall once reading the obituary of a British guy who died in 1970 at age 100, whose brother (actually, half-brother) had been killed at Waterloo -- 155 years earlier. Turned out his father had sired the first son when he was, like, 16, and that son became a drummer boy in the British Army was indeed killed at Waterloo in 1815. The father then lived on and sired a second son in 1870 when he was in his 70's, who was the one who died in 1970. Amazing.....

I get confused, is it fashionable to be older today or not? One minute age and mental acuity is no big deal and now it seems to be changing. What gives? It was okay just a few short years ago in 2020. For me, a senior guy, age is far less important than physical health and mental sharpness. If you have both, use them. If America was really paying attention, we would not be constantly watching reruns of “Mr. Magoo goes to Washington”. I am DJ Trumps age and in great shape but I marvel at how the guy can take the non-stop attacks day in and day out and manage to stay on message with a quick wit. Maybe there really is a Superman after all. Maybe we really have been visited by space travelers😎 Trump 2024.

Don, you're on fire again. Great read this morning.

I don't play chess and I hate checkers, so I don't claim to be a political strategist. It seems to me that an impeachment inquiry (whatever that is) plays into he hands of the Uniparty--it gives them an excuse to get rid of Biden and blame it on the Republicans.

Joe Biden is THEIR problem. THEY put him in there. Let the Uniparty figure out how to get rid of him while keeping Kamala out of the picture without fracturing the fragile coalition of perverts, soy boys, feminists and racial grievance grifters that is the criminal enterprise masquerading as a political party. They need that coalition to hold together because it reduces the amount of ballots they need to generate to stay in power.

This ain't rocket surgery.

We must stop the postal service from interfering/participating in our elections.

If we are encouraged not to mail cash or sensitive documents through the mail because of theft, then why would you want to put your most valuable vote in their hands?

Master keys are being stolen from mail carriers in major cities.

Right before Christmas in my community, the blue metal mailboxes placed outside the local post office to allow drop off Mail were cut into and all the mail stolen.

Vote in person on Election Day.

Here's what's going to happen: Hunter will go to prison before the election. Then Joe Biden is told his son is"suicidal" and needs his dad full-time to help him through his prison plight. If Joe drops out of the race, Hunter is "saved" by his dad's devotion. If Joe doesn't drop out, Hunter pulls an Epstein and Joe wins because people feel sorry for him. Then he dies in office of "natural causes" and then The Powers that currently control Joe have a "chat" with Kamala and explain how things are going to work or else. This scenario sounds like a mob movie but you have to remember that the FBI/DOJ didn't put the Mafia out of business because they were breaking the law, they put the Mafia out of business because they were their chief competitor.

If Hunter is convicted, you can bet Joe will pardon him before leaving office. The history of Dems using pardons to bail their buds and donors out is legendary. I remember the Marc Rich pardon by the Clintons. Mrs. Rich was a big donor and friend of Hillary. In Tennessee, we still remember Gov. Ray Blanton who was so blatant about selling pardons even to convicted murdererers, the courts swore in new governor, Lamar Alexander, three days before Blanton's term was up to keep him from pardoning more violent felons.

In Korea you have 2 career paths - business or government, similar to NY or DC. Since Korea is homogenous, if the businessmen or pols step too far out of line and create shame, they send them to prison, and then pardon them after a few years. Keeps the harmony.
