Harris Interview

 Kamala Harris, when pressed on her “Turn the Page” campaign slogan keeps repeating that the problem is “the past 10 years”, ignoring the fact that 6 of the past 10 years have been presided over by P-BO and Biden/Harris.    What a bizarre notion.


She also insisted that the US was “a democracy”.


She’s not very bright.  I’m shocked that she's been anointed to this role after recieving zero votes.

Idiot Educators

 Up here in the People's republic there is quite the uproar about the upcoming loss of federal COVID funding for schools.   Now, to the best of my knowledge the COVID "threat" is virtually gone and there's no significant risk of future outbreaks on a massive scale.   Yet, several years after COVID ceased to be  problem our schools are still clinging to this increased funding.   They aren't even pretending that it's being spent on COVID related expenses, they just got used to the extra "free" money from the feds and want people from across the country to fund our local schools.   It seems surprising that these districts are so stupid as to have thought that this temporary, emergency, funding for COVID isn't going to last forever and for non-COVID related expenses.

Heaven forbid we look at the damage done to students due to the response to COVID. 

More, More, More

The unmitigated idiocy of DFL politicians and their desire to pander to their captive groups is staggering.  That Clinton thought this was appropriate is simply stupid.

So the Biden/Harris DOJ is suing now to stop Virginia from enforcing a law that has been on the books for 20 years, but they're not interfering with an election or trying to let non citizens vote.

Let me get this straight.  The Biden/Harris administration lied about the employment numbers for months and campaigned on the false numbers, now they've lied about crime statistics and have been campaigning on those lies as well.

Given that so much of "Science" is now analyzing models, it'd probably make sense to start by analyzing what goes into those models.

Harris is an Idiot, and Other Stuff

 https://www.newsweek.com/kamala-harris-plagiarism-claim-smart-crime-1968831

Harris plagiarized sections of her book on criminal justice (ironic that theft is a crime), from Wikipedia and this doesn't seem to bother her rabid supporters.    The fact that she was so lazy as to plagiarize from Wikipedia, just makes it worse.    


https://x.com/wil_da_beast630/status/1845272256899055831?s=51&t=cLq01Oy84YkmYPZ-URIMYw

That so many people are so committed to believing these hoaxed perpetrated by the MSM when they've been dis proven for so long, shows a high level commitment to slavishly believing whatever they are told as long as it comes from the approved sources.

"My experience in conversation with narcissists is that generally they talk about themselves and don’t ask outbound questions. They are almost never interested in your life or what you think. The Trump I’ve seen in longform podcasts comes across as gracious and not self-absorbed. I was surprised to see him asking his interlocutors a lot of questions from a position of actually wanting to learn about their experience/life and what they know. He did this with

. It’s almost like he’s a different person when he’s not in an adversarial interview. You can challenge him, as did about his treatment of Mike Pence / Jan 6 and did about the impact of his rhetoric on the all in pod, but if he’s not in a combative mode, then you get insights and direct answers out of him. The press has for so long framed themselves as the victim vis-a-vis Trump, complaining about how he calls them the “Enemy of the People.” And sure at times he has not treated them kindly, especially at his rallies. But now that the podcasters are having a go and doing the media’s job, it’s pretty clear to me that Trump’s antagonism to the corporate media is almost entirely their fault. To be considered in the good graces of their fellow media elites who saw themselves as the last defensive line of the Resistance, journalists were in chronic performative opposition to him. The result is that he was treated very badly and constantly maligned; many of his policies that were characterized as racist or borne out of bigotry that were rolled forward under the Biden admin, were no longer racist or bigoted. The American people are not stupid. They see through this. Among the fissures that animate this election, one of the major ones is the alternative media world of podcasting vs the mainstream press. Current trends don’t bode well for the latter. America will be all the better for it."

I think this makes a couple of good points.

1. That "Journalism" or what used to be "journalism" has passed into the hands of those outside the traditional media, and that's not a bad thing.

2.  That the image of Trump portrayed in the MSM, may not be completely accurate.

 https://www.dailyjournal.com/article/320947-police-frown-on-s-f-da-s-drug-arrest-plan

So while Harris has a record of jailing low level drug offenders (predominantly black), she also wanted to turn drug offenders loose the first two times they got caught. How anyone can take her seriously at this point is beyond me.  

 

 "Christians, you have the choice between a non-Christian and an ANTI-Christian. Vote accordingly. God has sovereignly given us the choice between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. The choice is really simple. One of these candidates will be FAR worse for our country than the other one. Kamala will attempt to legalize abortion at any stage of pregnancy at the federal level. Trump wants to leave it to the states. Kamala wants to throw pro-lifers in prison. She wants to indoctrinate, castrate, and sterilize your kids. She wants to flood our nation with immigrants to attain a permanent electoral majority. Trump opposes the weaponization of the DOJ against pro-lifers, he opposes the castration and sterilization of children, and is dead set on closing our border. You’re not voting for a pastor. You’re voting for a candidate who can and hopefully will accomplish some of your political priorities. Trump may not be a Christian, but at least he isn’t Anti-Christian. You have a chance come November 5th to peacefully oppose the rising tide of leftist tyranny. Please do not waste your vote."

When Revered Journalists Go Bad

 Kamala Harris sat for a rare interview with a revered journalism institution, 60 minutes, recently.   As usual her answers were incoherent, and one answer in particular was really bad.  It was so bad that the real journalists at the revered 60 Minutes, a part of revered CBS news, decided that they would edit the answer from a totally different question into the interview as if it was her answer to the question asked.    Now it's been a while since I got me degree in journalism, so I may be wrong, but I seem to remember that this sort of manipulation was a journalistic no-no.   Especially for real journalists with revered journalism institutions.  

What this sounds like, to me, is election interference.  It's a deliberate attempt to portray Harris falsely as a way to help her get elected.   Again, it's been a while, but I'm pretty sure that using the public airwaves for this sort of thing is a journalistic no-no.  

Unfortunately, 60 minutes has a history of this sort of interference.   Remember when they insisted that it was impossible to verify the Hunter Biden laptop?   Well, it was verified, no thanks to folks like those at 60 Minutes.   

It also seems unseemly that someone in charge of a broadcast news division would be donating large amounts of money to Harris.  

Maybe real journalists don't still adhere to the ethics I learned back in the day, maybe it's now perfectly fine to manipulate interviews to benefit one candidate.    Maybe we shouldn't revere these real journalists as much as we do.   Maybe it's significant that about 98% of MSM journalists are left leaning.

Who knows, my faith in journalistic ethics has been shaken.

Holy Context, Batman!!

 "Just as Jesus noted: We will know good trees by their good fruit and we can know good people by their good actions and lives."

 

Except Jesus didn't actually say what Dan claims He said.   

He did say:  "15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them."

 

Jesus was literally talking about "false prophets", yet Dan has twisted Jesus' words to support his hunches.  He was specifically talking about  drawing a distinction between "prophets" who spoke the Truth and were in accordance with Jesus' Gospel, and those who were "false".  


But, what happens when we look at the context, and not just Dan's cherry picked paraphrase.  

"3 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 [c]Because narrow is the gate and [d]difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."

 

Jesus precedes Dan's proof text, with a clear statement that causes problems for Dan and his "almost all people are good"  as well as his hunches about Heaven and Hell.     Clearly Jesus is telling us that few people will find the "way which leads to life" and many will find the "way that leads to destruction".   Now Dan has been explicit about what he believes will NOT happen in Hell, but incredibly vague about what he believes WILL happen.    This raises the paraphrase of Dan's ever present question.   "Will YHWH destroy those "good" people who've only committed a few minor sins?"   Clearly Dan disputes that YHWH will punish people eternally, but he's been silent on destroying them.  


Then Jesus goes on to say:

"

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’"

Jesus seems pretty clear that many people who do "good" things in His "name" will be cast out as people who practice "lawlessness".    So, maybe Jesus is telling us that looking at the "good" things people do, even in His name is not enough to determine whether or not people are "good".     Because it sure sounds like people who "practice lawlessness", is not "good" people even if they appeared to be.

This seems like one more instance of Dan cherry picking a proof text, paraphrasing that text, and using his paraphrase (without the context) to support one of his hunches.

Just curious.  How the hell does George Soros, liberal billionaire, get fast tracked to by 200 radio stations.    Anyone wanna bet how quickly any conservative voices are summarily dropped from those stations?    Anyone wanna bet how much free advertising he'll run before the election if he gats control that soon?

So, let me get this straight.  Biden traded a stoned WNBA player for an arms dealer, who's now selling arms to the Houthis who just attacked the US navy, which Biden doesn't seem to have done much about.  Doesn't that mean that Biden bears some responsibility for Houthi attacks on the US and US interests?

"This is my career suicide note, but it’s also a thank you from someone who is done with careerism. I’m a lifelong member of your party and I’m voting for Donald Trump. Why? It’s not just your industrial-scale censorship or your endless wars or the fact that you disenfranchised millions of Kennedy voters through lawfare. If that were all I had, it would be sufficient, in terms of conscience and rage, but there’s more to this story than anger. Your hatred and censorship has taught me to admire

and to love my fellow working-class Americans, and for that I thank you. This vote is for all the traumatized people who have been canceled and banished just for saying no to the establishment. This vote is for the surveyor, the farmer, the HVAC man, the nurse, the hairstylist, the Deadhead, the veteran, and my fellow adjunct professors who have told me their stories about being bullied by the Democrats in their friends and family and their colleagues at work. This is for the young Black woman in my class last year who, on the day of Kamala Harris’s visit to campus, said, “You’re going to hate me, Dr. Armstrong, but I’m not going. I’m voting for Donald Trump.” Why would she think I would hate her for the way she votes? What has happened to our country? Somehow, Donald Trump has changed my mind. Where I once saw a cartoon white supremacist, warmonger, and narcissist, I now see the man who renegotiated NAFTA and the only president in the twenty-first century not to start a new war. Where I once saw the pal of the neocons, I now see a man who has awoken from his slumber and disavowed Dick Cheney, George Bush, and John Bolton, even as my own party embraces these “men.” Why has the greatest entrepreneur of my generation () risked his career to side with Trump? Why has the most consequential grassroots environmentalist of my time ( ) sacrificed friends, family, and reputation to side with “The Orange Menace?” Why has the most courageous peace activist of the twenty-first century () left our party? Because Tulsi, Bobby, and Elon see what I see. Donald Trump is resilient and he’s risking his life to change the fate of our nation. Trump is transforming the Republican Party into the party of peace, free speech, and the working-class. He has converted George Bush’s billionaire boys club of Big War, Big Ag, and Big Pharma into a party that cares about public health and embraces regenerative agriculture. Now I don’t think the GOP is all the way there yet, but they’re clearly the party that embraces dissent, and dissent—brave speech—is the fuel for evolution. So, for the first time in my life, I’m voting Republican. In the name of peace in Ukraine and free speech here at home, I’m casting my vote, as a Kennedy Democrat, for Donald Trump."

According to CBS news (revered as a practitioner of real journalism) a Yazidi woman who was captured and sold as a sex slave was merely "stranded in the Hamas ruled Gaza strip".

There is no possible way to spin this into something positive. Hamas allowed her to be held as a sex slave for 11 years. The IDF who rescued her, is obviously the villain.  The plight of the Yazidi people in general is one that the MSM has avoided like the plague as it doesn't cast a positive light on the Religion of Peace.

Whoopsie Daisey

 https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/mayorkas-warns-fema-funding-hurricane-season-114449475

 

 

Thank goodness that the federal government is spending billions on illegal aliens and funding Ukraine, yet running out of funds to help US citizens experiencing a crisis from a natural disaster.   

One more excuse to borrow more billions and raise taxes on us, our children, their children, and their children's children.   

Good job Joe and Kamala. 


This must be True because a revered source of real journalism has reported it. 

John 18

John 18 

 

"4 Then Jesus, sknowing all that would happen to him, came forward and said to them, tWhom do you seek?” They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, I am he.”1 Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them. uWhen Jesus2 said to them, I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground. So he asked them again, tWhom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus answered, I told you that I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go.”"

 

Interesting note, in the Greek Jesus' response translates more correctly as "I am", which religious Jews would have instantly recognized as the name YHWH give Moses to refer to Him as.   Three references to Jesus being God in just this one short passage.  

 

 "10 Then Simon Peter, whaving a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant3 and cut off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.)"

 

If, as some claim, Jesus was an absolute pacifist why would one of Jesus' disciples have been carrying a sword and why wouldn't Jesus have told Peter that he should not be carrying a sword?   

 "11 So Jesus said to Peter, Put your sword into its sheath; "

 

Jesus' didn't tell Peter to get rid of the sword, only to sheath it, Jesus clearly didn't seem to object to Peter carrying and using the sword for defense.  

 

 "shall I not drink the cup that the Father has given me?”"

 

Jesus objection to Peter's action wasn't an objection to using violence to defend themselves, it was that Peter's action was or might have gotten in the way of Jesus' reason for being there in the first place.   Peter's action might have also been problematic to Jesus fulfilling His promise noted in verse 9 "This was to fulfill the word that he had spoken: Of those whom you gave me I have lost not one.”".

 

Finally, it seems important to note that Jesus went willingly with his accusers, knowing what the end result would be.   He didn't "slip away" as He'd done in other instances when confronted, He went willingly.  If Jesus' primary goal was to provide physical food to the physically hungry, release all of those physically captive and oppressed, or to alleviate physical suffering, why would He go willingly with those who wanted Him dead?   How would His death have furthered His alleged social objectives?
