Good news for the people thinking Alex jones's case didn't set precedent for being punished for destroying the narrative.
....

correct about 1-4 it's due to NPC loving being continuously offended.
5 is the main issue for most American families.
women's rights deserve to be fifth because it's all a moral wedge issue they will never fix until need votes for next time. ( college loan forgiveness)
They must've spent all their money then.
 
Really makes you think what sort of pedal-to-the-medal stuff they're planning to shove through in case the Dems lose control of one or one wings of congress; or what pedal-to-the-medal stuff they're planning from 2022-2024 if they retain control.

I think it depends on whether or not the DNC civil war behind the scenes decides to go full Viking death ship, or if they realize how fucked they are and start negotiating a truce complete with deep sixing Biden/putting a choke chain collar on Kamala to make her impotent in order to avoid Gotterdammerung happening to the DNC with the new GOP controlled Congress.
 
Project Veritas gets an Adams staffer to talk about the shitshow that is NYC's handling of the immigrants being sent there from Texas:

EDIT: Hilariously, the guy in the video is apparently having a rough year - he was mugged at gunpoint back in July.

did you notice she is covering her wine glass?

why, are there *bugs?* I bet there's bugs
 
That assumes he takes the nomination. All the support that I've seen expressed for him has been on the basis that he sticks to his promise to complete his second term as governor, before doing anything presidential. He could flip-flop on anything else, but going back on that particular promise would be political suicide. The GOP are obviously trying to propel him into the nomination, but until he actually indicates he will take it, it's all just talk by people who don't want to face reality.
The push for DeSantis to abandon Florida to run in 2024 is purely to allow the Democrats to reclaim Florida; a critical battleground state that the GOP has fully fortified in recent years. If he leaves Florida to run for President, the long term issue is that the DNC can install a Democrat to the governorship and fuck shit up there to make it a permanent blue state again. Which is worth risking a DeSantis Presidency, given how making Florida perma-blue state is worth the short term pain of a minimum four years of DeSantis in the White House.

I’m going to assume that a lot of this will rely on if 2020 rules can be applied on a rather wide scale since it seems there’s a lot of places where Democrats have a lot of interest in by midterm standards.

Secondly, your post runs on the notion that Biden will be forced out. If anything, the Democrats may be forced to ride that pony to 2024 since Biden leaving office by way of anything other than election loss or death will reveal to his critics and detractors that him being in office was most likely the result of an ulterior motive, be it his family having some kind of legal shield as long as he’s in office, scheming to set up 10 years of Kamala, or something else.

I’m willing to entertain that Biden doesn’t want to resign out of sheer stubbornness or not wanting to accept the realization that he may not be the right man to lead the nation , especially since nobody say him down and brutally told him of his shortcomings, which honestly can be a really hard thing to do, and that resigning will make him come across to history as a failure or a crook, like Richard Nixon (even if a scheme involves President Kamala giving out pardons like candy and Costco samples.)

Honestly, I think a lot of Democrat issues have been caused by Biden (and possibly others) staying in their positions at a point where them just exiting stage left could have spared themselves a lot of trouble if they weren’t obsessed with spiting and destroying their perceived enemies.

Paul Ryan reportedly said he favored DeSantis being the 2024 nominee over Trump.

I'm curious how people are going to rationalize their support of DeSantis now that he's plainly the establishment's pick.

That assumes he takes the nomination. All the support that I've seen expressed for him has been on the basis that he sticks to his promise to complete his second term as governor, before doing anything presidential. He could flip-flop on anything else, but going back on that particular promise would be political suicide.

Would President Ron be a thing the GOP wants though? I get that it’s a way for them to keep Trump out at least temporarily if he doesn’t win the WH again, but for all we know his governorship could just be how he plans to run the country if everything goes his way.

The push for DeSantis to abandon Florida to run in 2024 is purely to allow the Democrats to reclaim Florida; a critical battleground state that the GOP has fully fortified in recent years. If he leaves Florida to run for President, the long term issue is that the DNC can install a Democrat to the governorship and fuck shit up there to make it a permanent blue state again. Which is worth risking a DeSantis Presidency, given how making Florida perma-blue state is worth the short term pain of a minimum four years of DeSantis in the White House.
Well I can only assume that they hope the Cuban refugees and exiles are in the ground because that’s a solid GOP block if they can be appealed to correctly. Also, as you mentioned, the defenses could be that fortified that the Democrats don’t break through. And assuming Democrats plan long enough beyond the vanquishing of their sworn foe(s).

legit this needs to be shoved down the face of every remaining fence-rider that you're next for causing some elections supervisor to feel bad because you said online that maybe Biden didn't get 110% of the population of the USA voting for him no matter how butthurt you are about Alex Jones and his gay frogs

This is literally Larry Elder running for Governor in California all over again. Of course, Herschel is a strong dude so I know this won’t effect him at all, but this is getting absurdly dumb.
What are “fighting words” in Georgia?

The phrase “fighting words” is a bit difficult to define. The statute criminalizes the use of:
“Opprobrious or abusive words which by their very utterance tend to incite to an immediate breach of the peace, that is to say, words which as a matter of common knowledge and under ordinary circumstances will, when used to or of another person in such other person’s presence, naturally tend to provoke violent resentment, that is, words commonly called ‘fighting words.’”

tbf I'd expect most of The South to have specific legal definitions about what "Fightin' Words" consists of
 
I've always believed that Biden was intended to be a sacrifice, on account of no one with insider information could possibly believe that he was capable of governing anything. I thought that he was going to be killed in order to frame MAGA and demonize populism for another generation, but now I'm thinking that he's supposed to absorb all the anger for the Great Reset plans fucking with everyone's comfort and routine.

So, maybe Obama is going to try and raise his profile a bit to act as the face of the "old" Democrat party so that they can possibly rebuild after Biden's done and gone. IOW, they want to fundamentally change a lot of things in overt ways that will piss people off, but they don't want that to prevent them from getting the power again in the future to fundamentally change things even more.

I know some people are going to say that the Democrats don't have a future, because all of their leadership is decrepit and awful, but they forget that the Dems are the party of big business now. Blomberg may be a shitty little dwarf, but there are dozens of high-profile CEOs who have been sucking gay nigger dick as hard as can be for the past 6 years or more who could move into politics well enough. This is the party of the TPP, and corporate and intel assets are all swirled up in it, ready to expand global corporate totalitarianism.
Biden was never a token sacrifice bid. If they were going to do that, they would have let Warren get the nomination or even Bloomberg. With the former being already groomed for taking over Schumer's spot as head Democrat in the Senate as part of her deal to support Hillary in 2016, she would have been a better sacrificial candidate.

Biden never forgot or forgave being snubbed out of the chance to run in 2016 by the behind the scenes deals struck between Obama and the Clintons. And by all accounts, the turning point towards the behind the scenes war over the direction of the DNC between Obama/the Clintons, was Charlottesville and how Biden basically went straight to Obama to read him the riot act for "allowing Charlottesville to happen" on the basis that he backed the wrong horse when he ordered Biden not to primary Hillary in 2016. And bullied and berated Obama into stop sulking and get back into the game/push hard to make sure Biden got the nomination in 2020 to beat Trump.

Talk about a clean sweep geeze. First, Fredo, then Stelter, recently Don Lemon (right?), and now Acosta? Guess we'll know for sure when we see the new faces.
Lemon supposedly bent the knee to his discovery masters and has sworn to do as he's told, since he needs his CNN paycheck and lawyers to protect him from his sexual harassment lawsuit. Him and Anderson Cooper seem to know the way the wind is blowing and are doing their damnest to keep their jobs.
 
I mean he's a sacrifice, like they set him up to be a martyr. Not that he was a token candidate who was supposed to lose to Trump.
A second Trump term was never an acceptable outcome for either party's leadership.

I don't think he is going to finish out his term. The how an why is still up in the air, but he's going to be used and discarded.
 
I think this might sting a little more than the 2020 fuck up. When people are struggling to feed their kids prattling on about abortion might just leave a particularly sour taste in their mouth. It's probably the absolute worst thing they could focus on, especially when you consider that for most Americans their abortion access has not changed.
it would also shine a light on their retarded demands, not sure they really want people to look too close what the whole debate is actually about...

It's very similar to the "we need an election holiday" point of view, if you think about it (and maybe we do, I'm not arguing either side).

The market is open from 6:30am to 1pm on the west coast, and you have to be up early enough to study the overnight market as well, so during active trading periods I basically wake up when the kids go to sleep
always surprised you guys don't at least vote on a sunday, where, while not everyone, at least the majority is at home.

Anyway I came here to ask who I should vote for in PA. Obviously I'll do my own research but I was curious what other kiwis thought about the PA midterm elections.
there's a thread over happenings, might have better info.
 
Here's a fun thing to observe through history. Whichever political faction is the one most in power culturally is always the one most pro-war.
Gehenna, I'm curious: What the fuck do your myriad contacts make of whatever the fuck the Biden Administration is doing on Ukraine with the whole nuclear saber-rattling lately? I know a bunch of not-completely-insane Progs still in the belly of the proverbial beast, and even they are fucking aghast at this shit.

Biden is off his rocker and they are trying to avoid anything too terrible. But he is going to mush before their very eyes.

It's not intentional and is definitely causing some serious worry but... well, what can they do?
 
So here's an interesting occurrence for anyone interested in what's going down in NY:

It's very rare that the Dem establishment types ever feel particularly threatened. They're never completely safe in NYC, but they're generally insulated enough from blastback that they have absolutely zero fucks to give most of the time. At least, that's how it used to be. Something big is going on in the Big Apple, and there's a lot to suggest that there's the beginnings of a shifting tide. My own contacts from my activist days have been telling me of how the general attitude of the staffers of the NYC bigwigs is something between outright delusion and out-and-out panic, depending on which you go for, and for the first time in about 30 years, the Dems are feeling actual pressure.

Hochul, in particular, is fucking cancerous to a degree that she's made people nostalgic for Cuomo.
For fucking Cuomo. Killed thousands of people and left office in disgrace fucking Cuomo.
How she's accomplished this is through ram-rodding through terrible policy after terrible policy in what I can only describe as an attempt to shove through everything the Dems have ever wanted while getting repeatedly bitch-slapped by the courts. Several Dem appointees at the local level are in open revolt at this point, and Hochul continues to be bitch-slapped by the Supreme court, who is sick of her shit by this point.

At the same time, NYC's Attorney General is a fuck-up of biblical proportions. Cashless bail has been a fucking disaster, NYC's crime rate has skyrocketed, even with the city actively cooking the books to hide it, and the city is only now flirting with the idea of rolling back Cashless bail. Meanwhile, you have Lee Zeldin actively campaigning on ending it and firing multiple DAs in NYC, something that the Dems have no real response to.

Adams, if everything, has solidified opposition to the Dems. There was genuine hope he would push things in a better direction: Instead what NYC has gotten is DeBlasio lite: More of the exact same policy while basically acting as a Rubber-stamp for anything Hochul wants to ram-rod through. He is increasingly despised, and to accomplish this when his predecessor was one of the single most-hated politicians in NYC in about a decade is an accomplishment in and of itself.

All of this is while the ground game is decaying, infrastructure is falling apart, people are fleeing NYC in droves, and the Dems have no meaningful response to any of it beyond focusing on asinine shit.

It seems like every single thing is coming together to screw them, and it's glorious to witness. It's a long shot to say they'll lose; you can guarantee that if it even begins to look close, they will pull out every single trick to cook the vote in NYC and there's a damn good chance that even if opposition candidates may otherwise win, they will try to fortify things in the "proper" direction. However, there's legitimate fear amongst their fork-and-spoon operators, something that hasn't been seen in quite a while, and even if they don't take losses in NYC proper, there's a good chance they will in the rest of the state.

New Yorkers voted for this, and New Yorkers deserve this. The only sad part is that they're allowed to leave the city instead of being forced to stew in their own misery until they finally admit that voting for a malicious retard who openly plans to destroy your city is a bad idea.
 
The thing with the strategic reserve is that... people know it's being tapped. They know, in general terms, that the reduction is finite. They don't know how finite or how close to running out it is or how long the drop will be. But by now it has leaked into general consciousness that the drop is finite.

So everyone knows the price is going to skyrocket.

So this isn't even actually gaining them support. It's just kicking the can down the road and hoping to avert one of several electoral disasters.

There's always a plus side - This forces them to live the veritable refugee reality, of trying to flee a hellhole of your own creation and wondering why things don't just magically improve for you when you don't change your behavior in your new area, while dealing with the fact that any possible support network is overburdened by similarly short sighted people, leaving you on your own. Its poetic in its own little way.
