I was just playing along with the narrative. They're not incompetent, they're on the doll from some social program. Its good old fashion vote buying. The no ID concept is only pursued so elections can be modified without traceability.

Good thing you're not a member of an ethnic minority.

We post here about watching our constitutional republic disappear because it's cathartic, then go about out day. If the walking dead don't wake up, it's over. Anyone see the last Venezuela elections? Maduro's competition was winning 80/20 and then Maduro stopped the election. Funny enough, Pennsylvania election locations were closing early until a law suit was brought (and won) by Republicans. COPS and fake election officials were all it took to stop voters from casting their ballots.

If 78% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, it would seem like the Democrats might want to rethink their priorities.

Speaking of other-than-mainstream media, a few weeks ago I discussed the fact that The Internet Archive had been down for quite some time, and questioned what might be happening to the data stored within it during that outage.

While it is now back online, it remains in read-only mode. Two things are noteworthy.


One is that, among other gaps in the record, all of x.com remains missing for the period of early 2015 through mid 2017, encompassing the entirety of the 2016 presidential race, nomination, and inauguration.


Another is that no new information has been recorded since Oct 10. Meaning that everything which has been posted and then deleted or edited, by politicians, bureaucrats, candidates, election officials, analysts, media outlets, etc., is all gone forever.

And that's not just X.com, it's the whole internet. There will be no permanent record of anything which took place anywhere on the entire internet during the final month of the 2024 electoral race, the election itself, and who knows how much else.

I took this screenshot a few minutes ago:





This is a worthwhile read, posted Oct 30: https://brownstone.org/articles/they...net-right-now/

It more or less states what I just said, using more words, but it offers some context as well.

Sounds like a YUGE conspiracy theory, which means we'll find out in about three months why the internet wayback machine turned into a memory hole.

Back here on the beach next to Camp Pendleton all I saw today was a four-engine train speeding at 50mph through San Clemente, trailing over 100 flat cars. It's not the usual time for freight trains, and definitely not the usual speed.

Whenever that happens, the cars usually get loaded up with Humvees and tanks and APC's. Wonder where they're going?

Calling Joe Perez -
I’m in CT, just watching the 10:00 news on WPIX(Kaity Tong is still at it!?). They had an ad touting their partnership with NewsNation for election coverage on Tuesday.
Could this be more than mere coincidence? Is your anti-partisanship metastasizing?
