Does it say how they did that while unarmed?

He’s equating Trump agenda supporters with Nazis and white supremacists, replete with Confederate swastikas.

Now tone down the rhetoric before somebody gets hurt!

Adventures in Baselessness

Nothing to see here! Look away! Yeah, it’s just election officials all across the country sounding the warning alarm about problems with the USPS that could interfere with our elections. But don’t you dare say that the election isn’t the most secure ever! [More]

Yeah, except the Post Office is saying it “disenfranchises,” setting the stage for Democrats to say the election was stolen..

Speaking of Fact Checkers

How much do those ABC debate “moderators” make again…?

Let’s hope these guys don’t get in trouble.

There’s an App for That

“Voting requires taking time off work or finding childcare, identifying your polling place, finding time to go there, waiting in line, dealing with confused/hostile people working at the polling place, and then driving or walking back to wherever you started. Not surprisingly, few people bother. The solution is simple: If we want more people to vote, we have to make it easier to do so. If voting requires just opening an app, a lot more people will do it.” [More]

Aw, gee, duty requires effort and rights require responsibility.

Democrats really are the party of the lazy and the entitled.

No Debate?

And what hay could be made from that?

His people couldn’t have foreseen who they were dealing with and established better ground rules? That hardly speaks to negotiating skills.

If I were Team Kamala, I would be challenging him to more debates and calling him a chicken if he didn’t accept.

Now that they know her tactics and how she will argue on the topics, countering them should be pre-scripted.

Speaking of Cheeseheads…

But there’s a voter ID-related loophole cheaters can drive a semi truckload of fraud through. In Wisconsin, voters may claim “Indefinitely Confined” status, which allows them to receive an absentee ballot without presenting proof that they are who they claim to be. [More]

Why does the Republican-controlled House and State Senate tolerate that?

Contract Oath-Breakers

An email obtained last week by the Second Amendment Foundation’s Investigative Journalism Project revealed that the “precision micro-influencer” marketing firm People First is hiring veterans to serve as paid social media influencers for the Harris-Walz campaign. [More]

Not just false authority — paid false authority.

All Red

Texas Democratic Senate candidate Colin Allred is featuring his wife in campaign ads to cast himself as tough on the border and immigration. Just four years ago, she sued to secure the release of dozens of illegal immigrants held at federal facilities in California, including one who was charged with assaulting and threatening to kill his girlfriend.

An Old Way Backward

She’ll ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, require universal background checks, and support red flag laws that keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people. [More]

Well, she can try.

Conflicted on voting? I get it.

Think of it as any chair in a bar fight.

An Interesting Admission

I’m on MoveOn.org’s email list, and this solicitation just came in:

Vice President Kamala Harris has taken the lead in national polls. But pollsters have a big warning. Presidential elections are not won at the national level; they’re won in a small number of battleground states that decide the Electoral College. And one survey showed Harris trailing Donald Trump across five battleground states. A pro-Harris Super PAC said their polling “is much less rosy” than public surveys. In a terrifying development, top election forecaster Nate Silver’s model now gives Trump a 55.8% chance of winning the Electoral College, while Harris has only a 44.0% chance of victory. And then there’s the fact that the Electoral College is biased in favor of Republicans and that polls underestimated Trump in both 2020 and 2016. While Harris’s candidacy has electrified the base, Harris remains the clear underdog in the race.

True, we can never tell what these people are claiming is real, and they are trying to fleece the bleaters for more money, but they also source things at the end:

An Indirect Admission

I normally don’t answer the interminable political phone surveys happening before the election, but I was sitting in the drive-through line when the phone rang and had nothing else going on, so I played around after the promise of just two brief questions.

First question: “Is anyone in your household employed by the media…?”

Yes.

“Thank you for your time…”

Trump to GOA

The promise to “listen to GOA” is what we’ll need to remind him of. And he needs to understand there are difference between them and NRA, and why.
