It may become more of a personal journal. This was suggested by a friend. I’m not certain, but I do need to find a new topic. The Wu Flu lock down nonsense is tired. Nobody seems to care. Nobody is rising up against the tyranny of the government overreach.
I might talk about searching for work at an advanced age.
That’ll cheer everyone up.
As stated below, I’m inclined to believe that there was massive election fraud. Biden barely campaigned. Trump has thousands show at his rallies.
I have long thought the Dems added an element of fraud to all elections.
I think they over played their hand. They thought they could win with little interference and then realized late at night they needed to crank up the machines and put out the votes for Biden, creating all the anomalies that people are seeing.
But…
I am hard pressed to believe that Trump is going to convince the typical Biden voter that he won. I’m really hard pressed to believe that Trump will convince enough of them.
But maybe elections will get fixed going forward.
That might be the dumbest sentence I’ve ever typed.
I certainly was wrong on Biden being replaced. Or maybe Nancy’s 25th Amendment noise in October of 2020 was a trail run for getting Biden moved out in favor of the retired sex worker.
Lots and lots of claims about election fraud. Even Sidney Powell has publicly made several claims of outrageous behavior on the part of election officials in various places.
I will admit that these claims fit my priors and biases about the left and big government / deep state.
There may be some proof of this claimed fraud that might persuade some of my typical Dem friends, but not enough to convince the Dem voters at large that Trump won the election. So, yeah…, I think it is pretty much over and that Kamala Harris will be prez in short order.
Kamala as President will be an interesting phenomenon.
Just another kluged up affair in 2020.
I’m trying to avoid the MSM and not get too crazy chasing down bits of info that fly by. There have been reports of vote dumps that are troubling. At some point in the future I’ll track all this down as best I can to see if I concur with reported election results.
As for the moment, we appear to be inside the recount threshold. I fully expect both parties to avail themselves of recounts is they see any advantage. This is going to drag on for a while.
I voted today. Some of my friends and relatives will be pleased to learn this fact. I myself feel somewhat small as I allowed myself to be badgered into voting. I am only happy I didn’t have to wait in line.
I feel somewhat dirty because I take the Mencken position when it comes to voting:
The state—or, to make the matter more concrete, the government—consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can’t get, and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time it is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is a sort of advance auction sale of stolen goods.
I feel this is especially the case with this years presidential election. We have to old men running for the office. The incumbent is a NYC real estate developer. We know he’s a crook just by that fact. But since the press has never said anything about this over the years, due to I believe, he’s the one that bribed all the NY politicians. Neither side is willing to talk about the crimes they committed. The other is a lifelong congress/senate creature that is one of the most corrupt people in all of Washington, DC. He used to be known as the senator from MBNA.
According to Quote Investigator: In 1956 the press of Johns Hopkins University released an important compilation of essays by H. L. Mencken under the title “A Carnival of Buncombe” edited by Malcolm Moos. An essay called “Sham Battle” was published in the “Baltimore Evening Sun” on October 26, 1936, and it has been reprinted in this collection. Mencken presented an uncompromisingly harsh evaluation of the electoral process. Boldface has been added to excerpts.
I see that I have a tag “Biden will be replaced.” One more thing I was wrong about.
I have to admit to a great deal of despair over the retreat on the virus crap. My economic life is centered around talking to people. We are moving in the wrong direction if I’m ever to have a chance of working.
I should be posting a lot of links.
I should do more than complain about pussies like Governor Abbott. I should do more than commit to voting for his opponent even if she’s a communist that has a penis.
But I’m just angry. I’ll get over this soon and will start posting more info.
I was gone for a few days on a road trip. I’ll put up a post on that sometime soon. I guess that with Gov. Abbott closing the bars again today that I’ll start the count over. Today will be Day 1 of House Re-Arrest.
I come back to this: Governor Abbott Orders Bars to Close.
I will actively campaign for Abbott’s next opponent. This is ridiculous.
We have the worst political class ever. I know that the way the media report the news is in order to drive fear and hysteria, but the governor should be above this. It’s a virus. Some people get sick. Don’t shift the liability! Let the virus spread. Let herd immunity happen. Protect the vulnerable. Shutting down commerce is no way to control a public health problem. The wealth created by economic activity is what will allow all of us to deal with the Wuhan Virus.
Starting the trip later this morning.
Take a look here: California may allow businesses to abandon commercial leases.
It looks like June 18th will be an important day in the life or death of that bill.
I will try to keep track of this.
This will be devastating to the California economy. Which will suck because most of the Californians will move to Texas. We already have enough of them here.
My brother-in-law will be thrilled with this news.
Posting will be light. I’m going out on the road and will have limited access to the internet.
So… maybe I should start a new count?
