In order to appeal to disaffected black voters who might lean toward protest voting (Kanye) or not voting (2016), Democrats ingeniously picked the one black candidate whose parents are not from America, whose ancestors had slaves, and who spent her career locking up black men.

I don’t even know where to begin. This is Byron York, who is a pretty sober guy, reporting this.
Members of the military are calling for the 82nd Airborne to remove Trump from office. And not just any members. Generals. McMaster’s people.
“The clock will strike 12:01 PM, January 20, 2021, and Donald Trump will be sitting in the Oval Office,” they write. “The street protests will inevitably swell outside the White House, and the ranks of Trump’s private army will grow inside its grounds. The Speaker of the House will declare the Trump presidency at an end, and direct the Secret Service and Federal Marshals to remove Trump from the premises. These agents will realize that they are outmanned and outgunned by Trump’s private army, and the moment of decision will arrive. At this moment of constitutional crisis, only two options remain. Under the first, U.S. military forces escort the former president from the White House grounds. Trump’s little green men, so intimidating to lightly armed federal law enforcement agents, step aside and fade away, realizing they would not constitute a good morning’s work for a brigade of the 82nd Airborne. Under the second, the U.S. military remains inert while the Constitution dies. The succession of government is determined by extralegal violence between Trump’s private army and street protesters; Black Lives Matter Plaza becomes Tahrir Square.”

As I read about Tik Tok it looks like it has a key press logger function that ships your keypresses back to China with zero data privacy concerns.
Once in China they can AI evaluate the keypresses and form a social score on you based on your phone activity.
Its said the app doesn’t respect restrictions. Hard to tell how much of it is fluff but it does seem unwise to buy or use Chinese apps.

Not astounding at all really.
These are fully paid up swamp dwellers who’s future cash stream is under threat as they transition from the Military to the Military Industrial Complex. Eisenhower knew a thing or two about these types of general officers and specifically warned about them and their cosy relationship with big business.
They are mostly apolitical skunks who want their turn at the trough of big money defence contracts that has been the style for the past 70 years. There will never be a clean cut between the general officers and industry until there is a mandatory decade long exclusion program for military moving from command to industry.
Byron York is just mirroring the real Democrat fears that they are losing this race and Trump 2020 is the one to beat! You can learn more from the enemy’s fears than you can from the propaganda that erupts from their lips.

From the link I posted
That was wild enough. Now, two retired Army officers writing in a respectable publication are actually, seriously, talking about tanks in the streets of Washington.
The publication is DefenseOne, a part of the Government Executive group. The two former officers, John Nagl and Paul Yingling, write an open letter to Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Mark Milley, beseeching him to use military force — they specifically mention the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division — to remove President Trump from office on January 20, 2021.

IMO we should have physical polling places with voter ID and a call back and SMS verification system.

Reason #265 why we’re leaving Virginia. Just because you don’t have kids, don’t think you can’t pay attention to the school board
This is Thomas Jefferson High School, considered one of the top schools in the U.S. It’s solely for AP students – or was.
In its final meeting last week, the group weighed several options that would gut TJ’s merit-based, race-blind admissions process and replace it with standards that they even admitted in their private meetings would essentially be race-based. They are expected this week to issue several recommendations to the Virginia General Assembly before it convenes in special session next week, including: quotas from every middle school in the county (to boost acceptance from certain middle schools with underrepresented minorities); a second-step lottery in the admissions process; and an admissions bump for students with “socioeconomic disadvantage” (also a backdoor way to increase underrepresented minorities).
Ranked America’s No. 1 public high school earlier this year by US News and World Report, TJ, as students affectionately call their school, had come in the crosshairs of a newly-emboldened army of educational activists who spew the cult of “critical race theory” propaganda, viewing the school’s low percentage of Black, Hispanic and low-income students as evidence of “systemic racism” in the school’s admissions process.

EXCLUSIVE: Trump Turns the Tables on Civil Rights Commission With Appointment of J. Christian Adams
KABOOMSKI!
https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/tyler-o-neil/2020/08/13/exclusive-trump-turns-the-tables-on-civil-rights-commission-with-appointment-of-j-christian-adams-n787758
I’ll see your Arden and raise you an Andrews!
Andrews knocked back offers from Morrison of ADF and Federal Police staff to lock down the COVID high rise hotspots.
(Actually, yesterday he said those Federal offers were never made…..before ending up with a shitload of egg on his face when the Defence Minister produced signed paperwork that stated the offer)
He (or a Minister/bureaucrat that he refuses to name) then hired an Aboriginal security company from Sydney (Unified Security) to secure the Melbourne high rise apartments.
The reason?….because they have a “diversified” workforce, consisting of Aboriginal unemployed youths and refugees from the Middle East.
Not selected by merit….hooo nooo…..this was progressive identity politics writ large!
Now…..this is where it gets interesting.
Unified Security is totally unionised and was selected by an Andrews Minister, the Hon. Martin Pakula, Minister for the Coordination of Jobs, Precincts and COVID-19, and who is affiliated with the National Union of Workers….whose members also include….(drum roll…..Unified Security).
Now, Unified didn’t have enough security guards to fulfil the role they successfully won from the Andrews government, so they subcontracted out by finding other aboriginals and refugees via an App called “WhatsApp”.
Now these guys didn’t have ANY training whatsoever…..but that didn’t matter…..they were enrolled in the Union, given 5 minutes of instruction, and told to start work.
Apparently, someone forgot to tell these people, that “work” does NOT include:-
—having sex with the people who are locked down inside the buildings
—attending parties with the people in lockdown
—sleeping their shifts away in the rooms of the people in lockdown
Then, the same “WhatsApp” security people, having got themselves infected by socialising with the people in lockdown, merrily went home and infected all their families and friends!
Now for the “piece-de-resistance”…..Unified Security DOES NOT have a licence to operate as a company in Victoria!
Any wonder Andrews is trying EVERY trick in the book to avoid answering questions!
The Darwin Award for 2020 proudly submits the aforementioned for favourable consideration your honour!
Arden is of course the NZ PM and is facing re election in Sprtember at a time that the wheels are falling off her socialist campaign

Supreme Court Rules 7-2 On 2020 Vote – They Just Reversed 9th Circuit, Refused To Relax Ballot Rules
The Supreme Court voted 7-2 to strike down a 9th Circuit decision in Oregon. The ruling will prevent a group from collecting signatures online, claiming dangers brought on by the pandemic.
The group “People Not Politicians” wanted to put a measure on the ballot to redraw congressional and legislative maps in Oregon.
That meant getting support from locals via signatures. It appears the group claims COVID made it harder to get in-person signatures, so they wanted to circulate their measure online.
The Supreme Court denied them.

University Of Pittsburgh Cardiologist Is Stripped From Fellowship Program After Criticizing Affirmative Action
Norman Wang’s paper, originally published in the Journal of the American Heart Association (JAHA) on March 24 and later redacted by JAHA in August after it elicited blowback, stated that there “exists no empirical evidence by accepted standards for causal inference to support the mantra that ‘diversity saves lives,’” adding, “Long-term academic solutions and excellence should not be sacrificed for short-term demographic optics.”
On August 6, Senior Vice Chancellor for the Health Sciences and Dean of the School of Medicine Anantha Shekhar tweeted:
A peer-reviewed journal recently published an article, authored by a member of the University community, that expressed views against equity and inclusivity. These views do not reflect the values of the University of Pittsburgh and its School of Medicine or our proud pursuit of disseminating knowledge for the public good. … As an institution and a community, we do not condone racism or discrimination of any kind, and we remain absolutely committed to realizing a more inclusive and equitable environment for all.

Well look, Jared quarterbacked this thing under the direction of the President. I mean, this was President Trump’s deal. But this was something very near and dear to Jared’s heart. He spent the last three and a half years cultivating relationships in the region and building trust and confidence in Israel but also in the Gulf capitals and the Arab capitals. And this wouldn’t have happened without Jared and his commitment to the deal working for his father-in-law, the president of the United States. And you know, I think the criticisms of Jared that are out there, I think, they’re unfair. I’ve never seen someone who works harder. He’s there early in the morning. He’s there late at night. He’s working the phones. He’s an extraordinarily charming guy, excellent diplomat, and under any other circumstances, would be hailed as one of the great dealmakers along with the President, in American history. Just you know, look what he did with the USMCA and what he did with criminal justice reform. I mean, he’s taken on hard issues, and the Middle East peace is just the latest in a series of tough issues that Jared’s tackled and done with aplomb. And he got results.

Portland. The meth capitol of the US. No lack of idiots. Hopefully none of them procreated and left kids at home.

Yep. How many of us here watch the “News” anymore? I’ve stopped years ago when it became nothing but liberal screed wrapped up on a thin veneer of “journalism”

After all, that’s what Journals and peer-reviewed papers used to be for. Now, they are apparently position papers supporting the current orthodoxy. In this case, “diverse organizations perform better”.
@ eaglesoars:
… and if this weren’t a fake account: If he was not exhibiting symptoms, then the probability that he had the virus given a positive test is only about 27%. With a reliability rate of 70%, the test is not very conclusive without other supporting symptoms. I really think this is where a lot of the so-called asympomatic crap has originated. “You could have it and not even know it”, is the mantra, the reality is “the test is very unreliable, you could test positive and not have the virus”

I love twitter, I learn a lot. But it’s a prism, not EVER the truth. Unless we’re talking history/academic sites which are pure joy. And agriculture stuff. There are people/interests there that are great. But for U.S. politics, it’s a minefield.
Yesterday there was some Harvard doctor who posted he was late for his rounds and ran some route in Boston with a mask on and #MASKUP!! Posted a pic of his sweet self with the standard blue-doesn’t-do-shit mask on all sweaty after the run.
He got slaughtered. Totally worth it, watching that self-satisfied self-appointed god figure get taken down.
As for the covid stats, they’re having the same issues in the UK. I haven’t seen any reports in any country in the EU about crap results but their media is worse than ours.
Good morning fun seekers.
The Trump team engineers a historic agreement between
Israel and the UAE with huge implications.
How is it recieved? The media diminishes the achievement and
points out that the palistinisns are upset and Biden ridiculously claims credit.in fact Obama and Biden delivered pallets of cash to Iran who laundered it to terrorist groups.

He could cure cancer and they would complain that he pit the oncologists out of business.
