Friday Talking Points -- Will Trump Take The Bait?
Maybe he'll actually take the bait, who knows?
Maybe Donald Trump's planet-sized ego and rampant unbridled narcissism will convince him that there just is no possible downside to testifying in front of the January 6th House Select Committee. This isn't just idle speculation, as hours after yesterday's hearing New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman posted the following (which has since been similarly reported in multiple media outlets):
Since it became public that the House select committee planned to subpoena Trump for his testimony, the former president has been telling aides he favors doing so, so long as he gets to do so live, according to a person familiar with his discussions. However, it is unclear whether the committee would accept such a demand.
Sounds like a plan. Put him on live television. He'd love it. He'd get great ratings (which is truly all he cares about when appearing on television), since tens of millions would watch. All his MAGA followers would watch to cheer for Trump, and the rest of the country wouldn't be able to resist watching, just to see the fireworks. The nation's strategic popcorn reserves would run dangerously low, that's our guess.
Trump released a letter this morning which is chock-full of invective and insinuation against what he likes to call the "unselect committee" and lefties in general, but any mention of the subpoena or Trump testifying is notable for its absence. So maybe he really is seriously thinking about it?
Of course, if Trump did appear, it would be a three-ring circus from the start. Trump has taken part in literally thousands of lawsuits, but somehow still doesn't have any sort of basic understanding of the legal process or the governmental process or the U.S. Constitution in general.
If Trump did appear, it would be at a congressional hearing. He would be under oath, giving testimony. It would not be a trial. It isn't even an investigation which could lead to an indictment, since a whole separate branch of government is in charge of such things. Trump would not be allowed to "cross-examine" anyone (since he would be the only witness, what's he going to do, cross-examine himself?), and he would definitely not be allowed to call his own witnesses. But, being Trump, he does not understand this even on a basic level. To him, all the world's a stage, and a courtroom merely one type of performance art. To say nothing of a committee hearing room.
The committee would expect to conduct the interview as it has conducted every other interview: the witness would be sworn in, and then the witness would politely answer questions from the committee members. The witness wouldn't get to question the committee, since that's not how the process works (except to clarify certain points about the questions asked).
But that is decidedly not what would happen if Trump did show up. Far from it.
First, Trump would demand to make an opening statement. That much is pretty guaranteed. He would likely ramble on for at least 45 minutes to an hour, venting his spleen as only he can (and he is a master of the spleen-venting art, it must be acknowledged). If the committee didn't let him finish his tirade, he would claim they were "censoring" him and "not being fair" to him and all sorts of other nefarious things.
So let's say the committee does allow him all the time he needs to get all the venting he needs to off his chest. The smart thing for them to do at that point would be to just completely ignore it all and begin questioning Trump, although I could see Bennie Thompson (or perhaps Liz Cheney) actually taking the time to refute Trump's fantastical and made-up claims for a few moments. Either way, though, the next phase would soon begin.
Anyone who has watched any of the hearings so far knows what is supposed to happen next. The committee members (and their lawyers) pose questions to the witness. The witness is allowed to confer with his or her lawyer before answering, and has a number of choices. They can either answer the question fully and honestly, they can answer the question partially (on advice of their lawyers to avoid anything that could fall under "executive privilege," for instance), or they can completely refuse to answer the question on the grounds that the answer is covered by executive privilege. The only other option is to refuse to answer the question entirely, on the Fifth Amendment grounds that it may tend to incriminate them. Those are supposed to be the only options.
Trump wouldn't be limited by that list, of course. Trump would treat the entire thing as if it was a presidential debate, which is to say: "as if there were no rules which applied to him at all." He would talk all over the questioners. He would interrupt, he would yell, he would try to intimidate them, he would bluster, he would ridicule them, he would personally insult them and their families, he would bring up completely unrelated and not-even-tangential issues, he would spend his entire time trying to score points, period. Anyone who has the slightest doubt that this is precisely what would happen should go watch clips of Trump debating, because it wouldn't just be "exactly like that," it would likely be ten times worse.
What Trump would not do is to actually answer any questions put to him. Does anyone really honestly think he would? He will ignore the question. He will answer the question he wishes had been asked, instead. Or he will just sink into the mire of playground taunts. Again: go watch any of his debates if you doubt this.
How would Bennie Thompson react to this tsunami of irrelevancy? It's tough to tell, really. Would he shut Trump's microphone down? Would he attempt to gavel Trump to silence? Would he threaten to hold Trump in contempt of Congress for his childish display of boorishness? Thompson seems like he's got a core of steel but usually doesn't let it show -- instead he displays intelligence and righteousness in a very calm and sobering manner. But how would that stack up against a Trumpnado of bluster and rudeness?
Our educated guess is that at some point during the proceedings -- probably within the first half-hour (just a guess, mind you) -- Donald Trump would completely flip out, lose his cool, stand up, and huffily walk out of the hearing. Nothing like a surprise ending, right? He'd then likely grandstand for the cameras outside the hearing room, just to vent his spleen a little more.
But we do have to admit the entire experience would indeed be "must-see TV." We'd watch. We'd be glued to our set, in fact. And so would (at a guess) at least 100 million other Americans.
Which Trump knows, full well. That's the catnip, for him. That's the bait. A bigger audience than he's had since he was president. All eyes on him. Stellar television ratings. Him getting to "tell his side of the story." Him getting to tell the committee members exactly what he thinks of them in the most scathingly personal terms imaginable, starting with Liz Cheney. Him against the committee, with no holds barred.
Trump also knows full well that no matter what happened in the hearing he would emerge and proclaim himself the victor. He would crow about how wonderful his performance was, how it was the best political performance not just in all of American history, but in all of human history all the way back to the beginning of time, and he would brag about how "perfect" his appearance was right up until the day he died. All of that is pretty much guaranteed.
So what's to stop him? If he can spin anything into a smashing victory against his nefarious opponents, why wouldn't he jump at the chance to do so?
One can only hope....
This was all precipitated, of course, by the House January 6th Select Committee voting unanimously yesterday to issue a subpoena to Donald Trump.
Which was merely one part of a very bad week for Trump's legal team, in the larger universe of legal proceedings against him. One judge ruled that Trump has to sit for a deposition in the case brought against him by E. Jean Carroll, who has accused Trump of raping her. The deposition will likely take place next week.
Without fanfare, the Supreme Court summarily dismissed Trump's appeal in the case of the government documents he stole when leaving the White House, with a terse, one-sentence ruling: "The application to vacate the stay entered by the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on September 21, 2022, presented to Justice Thomas and by him referred to the Court is denied." That one probably hurt the most, out of all the bad legal news this week.
In New York, the state attorney general moved to freeze all the assets of the Trump Organization, although it remains to be seen whether she'll convince the judge to do so or not. If it happens, it would be a body blow to Trump's real estate empire.
More grand jury depositions took place this week, on the January 6th insurrection. These aren't the workings of the House committee, this is the Justice Department's investigation, which has a lot more legal might behind their subpoenas.
It also seems that a worker at Trump's Florida golf resort has been spilling the beans to the F.B.I. and is now talking to the press about having to move boxes of possibly-classified documents from the storage room where they were supposed to be kept to Trump's personal residence.
All of this has added up to quite a few legal bills for Trump, so much so that it is eating up many millions of dollars of donor money that could have been spent on the midterm elections. What a shame!
Once again, Trump has also eaten up most of this week-in-review segment of the column, so we're just going to whip through a few other notable events and then move on to the awards section. And we do have one surprise for readers later: short talking points, for once! So you've got that to look forward to....
Plenty of Republican senators and Senate candidates made news this week, starting with Tommy Tuberville just going full-on racist at a Trump rally in Nevada. He has managed to get away with this, with minor blowback, for two reasons: the media lets Republicans get away with naked bigotry these days, and his own party simply doesn't care since Donald Trump so obviously approves. Democrats, of course, handle things differently, but we're getting ahead of ourselves.
Pennsylvania Senate wannabe Mehmet "Dr." Oz killed puppies. And the Democrats are going to make sure as many people in Pennsylvania hear about this as possible. Because... well... puppies.
Oz also gave a speech this week standing in front of Adolf Hitler's car, complete with swastikas. You just couldn't make this stuff up if you tried!
Herschel Walker continues to crash and burn, in case anyone's interested. The Republicans aren't, they're all standing staunchly with him no matter what. Morally reprehensible? Who cares, in today's Republican Party!
Most pathetic performance of the week was Senator Mike Lee begging Mitt Romney to endorse him, on nationwide television. To date, Romney has not done so.
That's about all the campaign bilge we can stomach for one week. A few positive items from the other side of the aisle, a story of shining achievement for humankind, and one final amusing bit and we're done.
Bob Menendez is leading the charge in the Senate to immediately halt all weapons sales to Saudi Arabia, after they effectively sided with Vladimir Putin by agreeing to decrease oil production. It is rumored that Joe Biden is also interested in sending a message to the Saudis, so this could actually become a reality.
Biden's move to pardon people convicted of simple possession of marijuana in federal court is wildly popular among the public, which should come as no surprise to anyone.
NASA successfully smacked a spacecraft into a small asteroid and by doing so proved its orbit and trajectory could be changed. The results were far beyond what they were hoping for, in fact. We wrote about this earlier in the week, because it is the first "proof of concept" of what could become a planetary-defense system to be used against any threatening comet or asteroid. This is big news for the human race, in other words!
In big news for the feline race, we end with 10 Downing Street's chief mouser, Larry The Cat. Larry is a pretty feisty kitty, and has been seen driving other animals off the property (pigeons, another ministry's cat, etc.). But this week footage emerged of Larry taking on a fox that is easily half again as big as Larry. Larry fearlessly walks up to the fox, the fox attempts to hide in a flowerbed, so Larry takes a literal flying leap at him and lands with all claws drawn. Sadly, the bushes obscure the moment of truth, but the fox soon emerges and flees, with Larry hot on his trail. The fox then (perhaps to save some face) tries again, but Larry stares it down and chases it off once again.
Now that is a First Cat worthy of the name! Go Larry!
There was one Democrat who turned in an impressive performance this week, but an earlier entry was better, so we're only going to give Tim Ryan an Honorable Mention.
Ryan is running for the Senate in Ohio, and he debated his opponent J.D. Vance this week. Earlier, while appearing at a rally for Vance, Donald Trump had mocked him with:
J.D. is kissing my ass! He wants my support so much. I think he's running, J.D., on an "I love Donald Trump" policy. Yeah, he said some bad things about me, but that's before he knew me, and then he fell in love.
So Ryan turned it all back on Vance, right to his face:
I don't know anybody I grew up with, I don't know anybody I went to high school with, that would allow someone to take their dignity like that and then get back up onstage. We need leaders who have courage to take on their own party. And I've proven that. And he was called an ass-kisser by the former president.
Ouch. Later in the debate, Ryan tightened it up into a memorable campaign slogan:
I'm for Ohio. I don't kiss anyone's ass like him. Ohio needs an ass-kicker not an ass-kisser.
That is definitely an award-worthy takedown, folks!
But this week we're retroactively giving the Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week award to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.
We all got a very candid behind-the-scenes look at what Pelosi's leadership looks like yesterday, as the House Select Committee played video of Pelosi and other congressional leaders (of both parties) during the siege and invasion of the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021.
Pelosi (and, to be fair, all the other leaders) are all doing exactly what Donald Trump should have been doing, but refused to. They are desperately trying to get some help to the forces defending the Capitol. They are seen calling the governors of Maryland and Virginia, the Pentagon, the attorney general, and Vice President Mike Pence, begging them all to send in the cavalry.
Throughout it all, of course, Trump was gleefully watching television.
Pelosi stands out in these videos. She is genuinely shocked at the events unfolding, she is determined to get the ball rolling on sending in the National Guard (or anyone else who might help), and she is resolute and direct and decisive throughout it all.
In a word, she showed real leadership.
She kept her head while others about her were losing theirs. She did what she had to do, and she did so as effectively as possible. She stepped into the leadership void that Trump had left behind.
Pelosi did have one moment where she blew off some steam, which is understandable given all she had faced that day. Here's the story:
New footage from Jan. 6, 2021, shows a candid moment when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi threatened to physically strike then-President Trump, should he have joined those protesting at the Capitol.
In the video, which was publicly shared Thursday, Pelosi admits the actions could have resulted in her going to prison -- a consequence she said she would "be happy" to accept.
"I hope he comes, I'm going to punch him out," Pelosi tells her Chief of Staff Terri McCullough, who discourages her boss from making the comments. "I've been waiting for this, for trespassing on the Capitol grounds. I'm going to punch him out."
"I'm going to go to jail, and I'm going to be happy," the speaker added.
Obviously, she was kidding. We think.
Seriously though, Nancy Pelosi is second in line to the presidency. If events had turned out differently that dark day, she might even have become president before the next day dawned. If Mike Pence had actually been captured by the mob, they might have either torn him to bits or frogmarched him out to that gallows they had set up outside the building and hanged him. If the cabinet had moved to declare Donald Trump unfit to serve via the 25th Amendment, Nancy Pelosi might have had to step into the job for the next two weeks (technical note: this section of the 25th Amendment has never been used and is more complicated than people think, so even if it had been invoked, Pelosi might not have become "acting president").
If this had indeed come to pass, those video clips clearly show she would have been up to the task.
So even though these videos are almost two years old now, Nancy Pelosi is definitely our Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week. In a time of chaos and crisis, she showed unflinching leadership. There really is no higher praise than that for any politician.
[Congratulate Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi on her official contact page, to let her know you appreciate her efforts.]
First, allow us to say one final thing, as Tulsi Gabbard officially departs the Democratic Party: "Buh-bye! Don't let the door hit you on your way out!"
Sorry... we just had to get that off our chest.
Snark aside, however, this week's Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week was painfully easy to identify, even though it's pretty far down the food chain of politics.
Early this week, the Los Angeles Times published an exposé based on an audio recording which had been anonymously posted online. Nobody disputed that the audio consisted of a conversation between at least four people: three members of the Los Angeles City Council and one local Labor leader. They were talking about redistricting the city (after the 2020 Census) and plotting to draw the lines to increase Latino representation at the expense of Black and other minority voters. The language used is reprehensible. It is racist, plain and simple. There's no other word for it.
The speaker of the racist lines is City Council President Nury Martinez. The other two councilmembers are Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León. The fourth participant in the conversation is Los Angeles County Federation of Labor President Ron Herrera.
Universally, Democrats condemned Martinez and her odious racism. Everyone from California's governor all the way up to President Joe Biden called for her to immediately resign. The (Democratic) state attorney general is now investigating the entire city's redistricting process. This is all exactly what is supposed to happen when a member of a political party is proven to have done something indefensibly racist.
At first, Martinez somehow believed she could survive the political firestorm. She apologized and resigned her presidency of the city council... but not her seat on the council. She announced she would be taking a leave of absence, in the hopes it would all blow over and die down after a while. She was wrong. A few days later, she bowed to the inevitable and resigned completely.
The Labor leader has also resigned his presidency. Unfortunately, the two other council members have not. They did not make any racist remarks on the recording, but then again they didn't have anything to say to Martinez when she did. They didn't object or push back in any way.
Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León are toast, politically. They are dead men walking. They still somehow think they can brazen it out and continue their political careers, but they are wrong. Condoning (with their silence) remarks like this in the Democratic Party is disqualifying, period.
Kevin de León is probably the most frustrated by this turn of events, because he had a lot of ambition and saw for himself much greater things in the California Democratic Party. He had previously been a member of both houses of the state legislature, including a leadership position in the state senate. He displayed the measure of his political ambition in 2018, when he primaried Dianne Feinstein for her U.S. Senate seat. Feinstein won the two-person runoff in that race, but only by a little over eight percent. De León obviously had bigger and better things in mind for his political future.
But that dream is now over. When the two councilmembers tried to behave as if it were all somehow behind everyone (now that Martinez resigned), the acting president of the city council abruptly cancelled a council meeting scheduled to happen today, and issued a statement: "The people's business cannot be conducted until we have these next two resignations."
As of this writing, the two still have not resigned. But at this point, it is inevitable.
We are handing out Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week awards to all four of the participants of this call. Martinez is guiltiest, of course, but the other three also deserve their political fate as well.
Racist talk may be condoned or even celebrated in the Republican Party these days. But the Democratic Party should speak with once voice in proclaiming such behavior absolutely disqualifying for any Democratic politician. Because America needs at least one party utterly dedicated to the fight against racism.
[Due to their resignations, former City Council President Nury Martinez and former Los Angeles County Federation of Labor President Ron Herrera are now private citizens, and it is our standing policy not to provide contact information for such persons. However, you can contact Los Angeles City Councilmember Gil Cedillo via his contact page, and Kevin de León on his contact page, to let them know what you think of their actions.]
Volume 681 (10/14/22)
We've got a rather unique talking points section this week, for two reasons. The first is that we don't ever recall dedicating the entire section to what is essentially taunting one person. Perhaps we have (with Donald Trump, it's certainly possible, we freely admit), but we don't recall.
Second, it's going to be short. No, really! We know the audience we are trying to reach is easily distracted and favors to-the-point sentences, so that's what we're going to provide. We'll even limit ourselves to a single word as a lead-in, for each of them.
Perhaps this is silly, but at this moment in time it would seem like a goodly thing for all Democrats to focus on taunting Donald Trump. The late-night comics are already going full-steam-ahead in this effort, and it's such a fun game to play we feel that Democrats should get in on the action.
So here are our seven discrete (but never discreet!) talking points, each and every one of them aimed directly at Donald Trump's ego.
Hoax!
Let's start with the basic argument, shall we?
"You said you want to get your side of the story out there, right? So why not expose this gigantic hoax in front of the American people? Why not show us all what a big witch hunt it all is?"
Fun! (Part 1)
Toss the catnip with abandon.
"They'd probably allow you to give an opening statement, and you could make it as long as you liked -- wouldn't that be fun?"
Fun! (Part 2)
A lot more fun that what you've got now....
"Wouldn't it be a lot more fun than just using Truth Social to reach a small audience of followers? I mean, you'd be on teevee! On every channel! Everybody would get to see!"
Weenies!
Nothing like feeding into his instinct to insult and his instinct for self-aggrandizement, right?
"You're smarter than all those pointy-headed weenies on the committee, right? Why not show everyone how much smarter you are by telling them what you think of them to their faces?"
Ratings!
This is the catnip extraordinaire, of course.
"The ratings would be off the charts! It'd draw an audience of, like, half the American population! No president or politician has ever accomplished such a feat! They'd be the greatest ratings ever!!!"
Election!
Why not? Maybe he'll buy it....
"Why not appear right before the midterm election? You could make the case to all the voters how the election was stolen from you and undermine their faith in their vote being counted! Because that'll motivate more of them to vote for your candidates! You could guarantee a Republican landslide by appearing before the election! Why not do so?!?"
Victory!
And finally, we just can't resist....
"Just think of how good it'll feel to walk out of the committee room and proclaim victory to the cameras! I mean, seriously... what could possibly go wrong?"

Maybe Donald Trump's planet-sized ego and rampant unbridled narcissism will convince him that there just is no possible downside to testifying in front of the January 6th House Select Committee.
But wait, there's a definitive downside: It's a crime to obstruct Congress, and lying every time you open your mouth isn't a speech impediment but an actual criminal offense.
It also seems that a worker at Trump's Florida golf resort has been spilling the beans to the F.B.I. and is now talking to the press about having to move boxes of possibly-classified documents from the storage room where they were supposed to be kept to Trump's personal residence.
Definitely classified documents that the employee was ordered by Trump to have moved but only after Trump had already received a subpoena for their return to NARA and after Trump having claimed through an attorney that he had returned them already.
Obstruction of justice with video evidence.
Sucks to be Trump.
Apologies for going off topic, but my wife posed a question this evening that relates to last week's FTP (a subject near and dear to all of our hearts (and lungs)).
So, if Biden guarantees a federal pardon for possession, what happens if I try to take a user-quantity on a domestic flight? Especially if my travel is between two rec-legal states?
Obviously TSA would make my life miserable if I tried, at least in the immediate, but would there be any further repercussions?
She asked an interesting question.
BTW, last week's FTP was one of your best CW. Like I said, near and dear to many of us. I had too many comments to comment. Thank you for that one.
There's live and there's live.... I would strongly recommend that the chairs keep a finger on the broadcast mute button while still recording everything, but maybe they'd have to put him in a sound-proof booth for anyone else to be able to speak. Although... perhaps just turning up everyone else's mics would do the job since his speaking voice isn't particularly strong. But let him rant long enough and he will almost certainly perjure himself or provide good evidence for a prosecution.
No cheering crowd, no stage effects, no amplification, just a row of stony faces. And maybe the horrified expression on the face of his lawyer.
FPC
So.. Let's recap the events from the previous day.. :D
We discovered that Russ The Shitty Husband had cajoled his alleged spouse, who is supposedly a police officer, but there are facts to support that this is not factually accurate. Anyways, Russ The Shitty Husband cajoled his spouse into running a background check on me..
Why would Russ The Shitty Husband do this?? Why would Russ the Shitty Husband ask his spouse to commit a FELONY!!??? Why would Russ The Shitty Husband do something so low down and contemptible??
Well, because at the time (AND continuing to this day) I was kicking Russ The Shitty Husband's ass all up and down Weigantia®, day after day..
So, Russ The Shitty Husband has his (alleged) spouse who is a police officer, run a background check (commonly known amongst LEOs such as myself as an NCIC run..)..
Russ The Shitty Husband brags about this background check here in Weigantia...
As for his work history.... Michale used to claim he was in law enforcement for almost 25 years...but the truth is that IF he was ever in was a LEO, it was maybe for 2.5 years when he was a MP in the military. And based on the background check that was run on him, if he ever was a LEO it is unlikely that he could have been one for long given his record.
-Russ
I mean, honestly.. What kind of moron ADMITS to committing a felony in a public forum!??
Anyways, at the time, I responded to this utterly MORONIC confession from Russ The Shitty Husband with musings that I should file a complaint with the alleged spouse's Department. When a police officer misuses the NCIC system for personal use, it's a felony.. More on THAT later.. Filing a complaint against a police officer for committing a felony is a reasonable and responsible reaction to said felony, no??
Now keep in mind that this all happened over 2 years ago, but Vick The Moron (more on her later :D) dredged it all up again..
WHY would Vick The Moron dredge it all up again, you ask??
Well, because (as with Russ The Shitty Husband) I have been kicking HER ass all up and down Weigantia since my return after my recovery and convalescence..
OK, so here we are... Russ The Shitty Husband cajoled his alleged spouse who is allegedly a police officer into committing a felony by running a background check on me, SOLELY because I was (and continues to) mentally kicking his ass all over Weigantia®..
In response to that I responded to Russ The Shitty Husband with a long comment, part of which said:
I might have to file a complaint with the PD that Russ's husband works for.. Shouldn't be too difficult to ascertain which Department he works for.. Russ has left plenty of clues..
Yep.. I think a complaint is definitely warranted...
Again, a reasonable reaction to Russ The Shitty Husband's confession that he and his alleged spouse had committed a felony.. A complaint was DEFINITELY warranted..
ANYONE here would have done the same faced with the same circumstances...
OK Now lets time travel 2+ years into the future to yesterday where Vick The Moron had dredged this all up..
Now, HERE is where it gets REALLY funny!!! :D
Vick The Moron REALLY earned her moniker here.. :D
This is EXACTLY what Vick The Moron said:
"It is not a crime for a police officer to perform a background check, you inveterate effing uneducated hysterical ranting swamp poon;"
-Vick The Moron
BBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Can ya'all BELIEVE that Vick The Moron would be such a well.. such a moron!! :D
As I am wont to do, I responded to Vick The Moron's unbelievably moronic claim with the FACTS..
Officer Faces Felony Charge For Unauthorized Background Check
November 12, 2019
After running a background check without a permissible purpose, a police officer faces a serious criminal charge.
The Story
A police officer in Peoria, Arizona stands accused of wrongfully running a background check on a citizen. Allegedly, the officer agreed to look up information about a woman at the request of a friend. This friend was reportedly interested in dating a co-worker but first wanted to know if she has a criminal record.
The officer allegedly provided a completed background report to his friend. After reviewing, that friend approached the woman he hoped to date and referenced a personal experience which he should not have known. When asked how he got that information, the man shared the story of what happened.
Soon after, the co-worker called local police and filed a complaint.
Officers are permitted to run license plates while on active duty, but they are not allowed to run background checks on individuals without cause. The officer who stands accused of running an unauthorized background report faces a class six felony charge. He was placed on administrative leave and later resigned.
https://tinyurl.com/kkpeaywf
A police officer was *ARRESTED* for a felony for doing the *EXACT SAME THING* that Russ The Shitty Husband's alleged spouse did..
EXACTLY...
Running an ILLEGAL background check at the behest of a 3rd Party..
That is EXACTLY what happened with Russ The Shitty Husband..
And THAT's where we are today!!! :D
Russ The Shitty Husband is a shitty husband for asking his spouse to commit A FELONY... I mean, WHO DOES THAT!!??? What kind of sick twisted poor excuse of a MAN would ask his spouse to commit a felony!??
And why?? ALL because Russ The Shitty Husband was (and is) getting his ass kicked all up and down Weigantia®
And Vick The Moron??
Claiming that "It is not a crime for a police officer to perform a background check.." when it most certainly is not only a crime, but a FELONY!!!
There is a factually accurate re-creation of the facts from yesterday..
"But today.... is a new day!!!"
-Chicken Little
And it's going to be a FRABJOOUS day... I have LOTS to cover beyond Russ The Shitty Husband and Vick The Moron laughably inaccurate and bullshit statements..
Hold onto yer seats!! :D
OK, so the previous comment was a long read..
Allow me to sum it up for ya'all..
2 years ago (and to this day) Russ The Shitty Husband was getting his ass kicked all up and down Weigantia® by yours truly..
Russ The Shitty Husband cajoled his alleged* spouse into running an illegal NCIC background check on me because of his daily ass-kickings..
I responded with the idea that maybe I should file a complaint with Russ The Shitty Husband's alleged* spouse's PD, because such an action on the spouse's part is a FELONY...
Then yesterday, Vick The Moron made this OUTRAGEOUSLY moronic and fact-less statement...
" "It is not a crime for a police officer to perform a background check.."
-Vick The Moron
Which of course, anyone who has more than 2 brain cells to rub together KNOWS that such an action is not only a CRIME, it's a FELONY!!!
Officer Faces Felony Charge For Unauthorized Background Check

And THAT'S the Cliff Notes version...
*I always say "alleged" spouse because there are ZERO facts to support the claim that Russ The Shitty Husband even HAS a spouse. And there are several facts to support the claim that Russ The Shitty Husband does NOT have a spouse.. So, if it turns out that I am factually accurate (which it usually does and I usually am) then Russ The Shitty Husband would become just Russ Shitty... I dunno.. I'll mull that over. :D
OK.. Now let's address the LAUGHABLE Cardassian 6JC, shall we?? :D
I have been saying ALL YEAR that the 6 Jan Committee (6JC) was nothing but a Cardassian Court.. A barely legal proceeding whose SOLE goal is to create a fantasy of guilt..
And NOW Left Wing rags are saying the EXACT same thing.. :D
Opinion The Jan. 6 committee preaches to the choir
There are few things as irritating as a preacher who just won’t end his sermon until someone, anyone, finally steps forward to confess and repent, regardless of how far most minds long ago drifted off to thoughts of football, afternoon naps and Sunday dinner.
That’s what the tedious Jan. 6 committee feels like, with committee members determined to convince everyone, no matter how tired, uninterested or skeptical, that former president Donald Trump is evil incarnate, that his followers are dangerously wayward enablers, and that renouncing them both is the only road to salvation. Can we get an amen?
Most of Thursday’s presentation was a monotonous rehash of what committee members apparently felt was their most damning and convincing details, all leading to the clear political stunt of issuing a subpoena for Trump, which, if it were a serious move, would have been done at the beginning of the hearings, not the end. As law professor Jonathan Turley was quick to point out, the move comes quite late in the game, and Trump will likely never be forced to comply.

Once again, *I* have been PROVEN dead on ballz accurate...
AGAIN!! :D
Yep.. Today is going to be a frabjous day!! :D
We've got a rather unique talking points section this week, for two reasons. The first is that we don't ever recall dedicating the entire section to what is essentially taunting one person.
Oh there has been PLENTY of those.. :eyeroll:
Just another example of how far things have sunk here in Weigantia®...
The late CW would be abhorred at what Weigantia® has become...
Drowned in the muck and mud of President Trump Derangement Syndrome (PTDS) ...

There's live and there's live.... I would strongly recommend that the chairs keep a finger on the broadcast mute button while still recording everything, but maybe they'd have to put him in a sound-proof booth for anyone else to be able to speak.
And THERE is the quintessential Democrats' view of democracy...
Silence ANY dissenting voice...
Mezzomama.... You would have made a good Nazi...

The Democrat Party and the Nazi Party... Intertwined in ideology and belief.. :eyeroll:

Trump's Truth Social app soars to No. 1 on the Google Play store
After long wait, Trump-owned app scores 100,000 plus downloads in first days in Android marketplace.
President Donald Trump's social media app Truth Social soared to the No. 1 downloaded app on the Google Play store Friday after its long-awaited debut.
Truth Social sat atop the free apps list ahead of such brand names as Tik Tok, Amazon, WhatsApp and Instagram.

The Art of Disagreement
French philosopher Michel de Montaigne once quipped that “there is no conversation more boring than the one where everybody agrees.” My experience is that talking only to people with whom you agree (or only watching people on TV with whom you agree) is not only boring, it makes us more uninformed. I rarely learn anything from talking to people who agree with me.
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2022/10/14/the_art_of_disagreement_148321.html
And THIS is exactly my value here.. Ya'all would be wallowing in a DITTO-HEAD pit if it weren't for me..
Don't take my word for it..
My fellow WEIGANTIA® Founders (there are 3 of us) have said the EXACT same thing on more than one occasion...
So... Yer welcome...
"What can I say except.... YER WELCOME"
Maui, MOANA
:D
Hay Bash...
You forgot a comment...
Finally, it's the ONLY OFFICIAL Weigantia® objective and unbaised news source..
Says who? You?
Says the moderator of Weigantia... It's right up there under MY LINKS..
"DOI!!"
-Vannilope Von Schweetz, WRECK IT RALPH
I am SURE that was just an oversight on yer part..
I mean, you would NEVER ignore the chance to concede how utterly WRONG you were and I, as usual, is totally and completely factually accurate, eh?? :D
But getting back to RCP...
Allow me to relay to ya'all some very simple rules on how to handle disagreement..
The BIGGEST one..
Acknowledge the possibility you are wrong. No one is right all the time; therefore, there will be occasions when your conclusion is wrong. Routinely stop and think about whether that may be the case.
This is the BIGGEST problem ya'all have.. To be fair, not ALL of ya'all have this problem.. Russ The Shitty Husband and Vick The Moron DEFINITELY suffer from this malady... Jean Luc and Liz do not..
NONE of ya'all (NEN) can concede when you are wrong..
The exchange with Vick The Moron yesterday is a PERFECT example..
Vick The Moron said that it is not illegal for a police officer to run a background check.. In the context that we were discussing, it certainly IS illegal to for a police officer to run a background.. Not only is it illegal, it's a FELONY!!
But did Vick The Moron admit she was wrong?? Of course she didn't.. So I had to slam her down BIG TIME..
Had Vick The Moron said, "Yunno, Michale.. Yer right.. I was mistaken in my claim. I apologize.."
I would have responded with a "Thank You, Kick" and ALL of these multitude of comments could have been avoided..
Another perfect example was when Bashi attacked my wife and dragged her into a Flame War...
He was DEFINITLY wrong in doing that..
He KNOWS he was wrong..
Even JL and Liz KNOW Bashi was wrong..
I even TOLD him, "If ya just admit you were wrong and apologize for attacking my wife we can forget ALL about it.. Water under the bridge.. I can forgive a LOT when there is a sincere apology.." *
But Bashi simply COULD NOT admit he was wrong and we are still at each other's throats..
Upwards of NINETY PERCENT of comments and 100% of Flame Wars could be avoided if ya'all (NEN) could just admit ya'all are wrong..
When it happens to me, when *I* am wrong, I readily concede the point and move on..
Too bad ya'all (NEN) don't have the same strength of character and self-respect.. :eyeroll:
* There is a hint and a half to the current Weigantia® moderator.. :^/
Look for evidence that contradicts your own beliefs. Because we don’t like to hear things that negate what we believe, we have a natural tendency to seek out evidence that supports our preconceptions and ignores evidence that does not. So, do the opposite. Look for evidence that questions your opinions. And do it in a good faith attempt to challenge your conclusions. If nothing else, understanding evidence will help you defend your position if you do not change your mind. Every good lawyer looks for holes in their own case.
And here is ANOTHER perfect example of the dis-function here in Weigantia®.. Kinda goes hand in hand with the first..
Even JL and Liz are guilty of this as well.. Not as much as every one else, but it's there..
And, yes.. I have the same problem although a LOT less frequently than ya'all...
Ya'all are SOOOO convinced in your Party slavery that ya'all won't even ENTERTAIN the idea that there is another side...
Only ONE person here (besides me, of course) has admitted that President Trump accomplish some good as POTUS..
Ya'all REALLY need to take a step back and realize that there ARE facts out there that puts ya'all's claims in a different light...
And again, yes.. I am somewhat guilty of that as well.
The difference between ya'all and I is that *I* concede it...
Ya'all never can and never do..
Recognize that two intelligent people of good faith may reach different conclusions. As much as we think of our brains as a computer, they are infinitely more complex. Our opinions and beliefs are the result of a lifetime of continual inputs along with an element of genetic diversity. No two people have exactly the same life experiences or genetic makeup. Those two elements may lead two honest and bright people to look at the same set of data and reach different conclusions. And that is okay. The ability to see different approaches to a problem is a strength of our species.
Once again.. Definitely a problem here in Weigantia®...
JL and Liz are not guilty of this.. I am not guilty of this.. But the rest of ya'all, INCLUDING the moderator, are...
ANYONE who disagrees with ya'all is a liar, a racist, an idiot and just an all around EVIL person..
NONE of ya'all allow for honest disagreement where two people of similar intelligence levels can fundamentally disagree...
THAT is a problem ya'all (NEN) need to work on...
And the final one is the biggest one of all..
There is no reason to hate someone who disagrees with you. This is the most important point. There is no one in our lives with whom we agree on everything. It is a waste of spirit to demonize people who come to a different conclusion. We should always keep in mind the words of former Wyoming Sen. Alan Simpson: “Hatred corrodes the container in which it is carried.”
THIS one is what laid the late CW out...
This one everyone is guilty of except myself, Liz and JL... Ironically the 3 FOUNDERS OF WEIGANTIA®...
Ya'all (NEN) *HATE* President Trump and his supporters..
HATE THEM. Tens of millions of President Trump supporters and YA'ALL (NEN) hate them..
Ya'all (NEN) HATE them so much that ya'all (NEN) will even attack their FAMILIES!!! Ya'all (NEN) have them so much that ya'all (NEN) will attack their FRIENDS!!
Ya'all's hate is much like a Goa'uld.. It's an insidious and evil creature that burrows it's way into it's host and feeds and takes over the host's body..
I know, I know... Goa'ulds claim that nothing of the host survives..
I am hoping that this is not the case.. I am hoping that my old friend CW is still in there some where, fighting off the influence of the evil Goa'uld/hate..
I am hoping the 3 Weigantia® Founders can extract the Goa'uld from the Moderator's host body with having to call the Tok'ra..
If ya'all (NEN) can lose the hate, 90% of the comments here in Weigantia® and 100% of the Flame Wars can disappear...
OVER NIGHT!!
We've done it before.. We can do it again...
Just lose the hate, people...
OK... 20 comments... I am gonna take a break and let ya'all mull over and consider things...
:D
"I was not a fan of that {first} impeachment but by the standards set by Democrats and the media, the argument was that Donald Trump, by asking for an investigation into the notorious corruption in Ukraine that deals with some of our most powerful families, and that because we have a relationship with Ukraine, this constituted a quid pro quo and a meddling in an upcoming election.
Well here we have a letter released that shows that president Biden explicitly asked for help in this election by delaying this outcome of cutting back on oil production. He has publicly announced that he wants to persecute Saudi Arabia or punish them, you know, through some means, whether it's legislative or limiting arms sales, and we have this all publicly. And so by the standards set by Democrats and the media, he obviously should be impeached and he obviously should be immediately convicted if you're going to be consistent."
-Mollie Hemingway
Yep... Yep...
By the standards set by *DEMOCRATS*, Dementia Biden should be impeached..
No other possibility exists..
But I am open to being proven wrong on this point. :D
And, in the JUST WHEN YOU THINK DEMOCRATS COULD NOT BE MORE MORONIC, THEY SUPRISE YOU AND DO SOMETHING EVEN MORE MORONIC segment of our show...
LGBTQ bill on child abuse creates uproar in Virginia and beyond
The bill got a very different description Thursday in a TV report, which said Guzman wanted parents to face criminal charges if “they do not affirm their child’s sexual orientation and gender identity.”
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/lgbtq-bill-on-child-abuse-creates-uproar-in-virginia-and-beyond/ar-AA12YEJr
Get that??
Democrats want to CRIMINALIZE not buying into the whole Democrat gender-bender non-science ideological bullshit..
Democrats want to throw parents in jail for good parenting...
:eyeroll:
Here is a hint and a half for Democrats..
We don't let children smoke of a reason..
We don't let children drink alcohol for a reason..
We don't let children chose to have mutilating and life altering surgery and drugs FOR A FRAKIN' REASON!!!..
There is a *REASON* for all of that..
Why is it that Democrats are too moronic to see this??
I get it.. I really do.. With 2 exceptions (myself and JL) none of you are parents... Ya'all think NOTHING about letting kids have mutilating surgeries and take life-altering drugs..
It's simply PURE and unadulterated ignorance and Party slavery that drives agendas like this...
And simply MORE facts that I was dead on ballz accurate when I said that inflation was going to be with us long after the mid-terms..
There's No Sign of Inflation Easing Up
No one expected the Federal Reserve to be able to smother inflation swiftly. But after seven months of rapidly rising interest rates, the central bank has hardly made a dent.
Thursday’s look at the September consumer price data shows we’re not much better off now than we were in March, when the Fed began its aggressive monetary tightening. Back then, overall consumer prices were up 8.5% year over year. Now, they’re up 8.2%.
Core prices, which exclude volatile food and energy categories and are widely seen as a more reliable barometer of underlying inflation, hit 6.6% annually in September — their highest since 1982.
https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/13/business/fed-interest-rates-inflation-nightcap/index.html
And to those who said Inflation would be gone by November?? Yes, I am looking at YOU MC... :D
Apparently, ya didn't know what ya were talking about, eh?? :D
History may not repeat...
But it surely rhymes...
The Democrats’ Willie Horton Problem
Diana Allocco lays down the facts regarding the Willie Horton case and how Democrats have forgotten the vital lessons from the unfortunate incidents.
The nation’s 2022 top-tier fear is crime. Three quarters of Americans say violent crime is a major problem, and getting worse. Democrats’ cashless bail laws, attacks on police, and other liberal soft-on-crime policies have unleashed unrestrained criminality across the country, particularly in Democrat-run cities, where dangerous criminals are no longer locked up in jail. At all. “Arrested-and-released” is now the most common phrase in every crime article.
And this is not just theory to people, or some kind of political talking point. According to a recent Golden/TIPP poll, a record 16 percent of Americans themselves or a family member have been victims of crime — and the distressing numbers are particularly elevated among African Americans, Hispanics, and urban voters, where close to 25 percent — one in four — are crime victims.
Republicans are campaigning hard for the midterms on the real problem of crime — and gaining traction everywhere. The Democrat response: “That’s racist! It’s Willie Horton all over again! Shut up!”
https://tippinsights.com/the-democrats-willie-horton-problem/
Once again, Democrats lamely try to play the race card.. :eyeroll:
That's the entire Democrat playbook in a nutshell... :eyeroll:
The entire above article is a VERY good read.. I won't quote it in it's entirety here, but ya'all should definitely read it..
It defines PERFECTLY today's Democrats and explains why they are known as the Pro Criminal Party... :^/
OK OK.. I WILL quote relevant portions of the article..
Democrats Revert. With Democrats’ reclaiming full national power in 2020 and capitalizing on their control of big cities — and forgetting the harsh political lessons they were taught by outraged voters over a generation ago — Democrats have eagerly returned to their criminal-coddling roots. True to form, they are letting felons out of prison. Proudly. And everywhere they rule.
They have implemented their favorite leftist soft-on-crime policies, like non-prosecution of offenses. They have commuted sentences. They have eliminated cash bail. They have saved their harshest rhetoric and punitive policies for police. To put it succinctly, Democrats have, in places they run, basically decriminalized crime.
Yep... Yep... Yep....
Democrats' PRO CRIMINAL policies have sunk the Party..
Democrats' HATE COPS policies created the fact that NO self-respect LEO will EVER vote Democrat..
Anyone who supports Democrats are, by definition, cop haters..
But here’s the real reason people are afraid: criminals, unrestrained by conscience or law, have been set free to hurt them. (Just google “random attack” for dismaying examples.)
In 1988, Democrats had a “Willie Horton problem.” Their problem was: Willie Horton. In other words, the Democrats’ problem was the facts of the case, the truth of what actually happened in the real world — the horror — as a direct result of Democrat policies.
In 2022, the Democrats’ problem is the same as before, the predators they let out to prey on the innocent. But now, the Democrats have moved on and moved up. Their criminals aren’t rewarded with a mere weekend furlough — these days they get a forever furlough. These criminals own the streets — and virtually imprison the rest of us.
The results are utterly predictable. As is the voter response, coming November 8.
This part bears repeating...
here’s the real reason people are afraid: criminals, unrestrained by conscience or law, have been set free to hurt them.
THIS is the atmosphere that Democrat Party incompetence and ideological slavery has created...
EVERY attack on LEOs can be laid at the feet of the Democrat Party...
The Democrats' DEFUND, DEMONIZE, DEMORALIZE THE POLICE was and is the DIRECT cause of all the violent crime that occurs in America today...
As will be made PERFECTLY clear in 24 days....
So much for all ya'all's hysterical claims against Walker, eh? :D
Herschel Walker was ‘holding his own’ during debate against Warnock, media admit
Mainstream journalists and even liberal media figures admitted that Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker did better than expected during his Friday night debate against his Democratic opponent Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga.
NBC News contributors, local news commentators, former Daily Beast writers, and even MSNBC anchor Mehdi Hasan acknowledged that the Walker’s debate performance was "not as bad as it could have been."
One claimed that Warnock, the Democratic pro-choice pastor, looked weak and should have fought back harder against Walker’s aggressive criticism, and another even declared Walker the victor.

Looks like Raph Warlock is going down!! :D
And meanwhile in Ohio...
JD Vance Delivers Political KO to Tim Ryan
Vance went right for the political jugular with a brutal statistical smackdown of Ryan on the economy, which remains by far the most salient of this election for voters in Ohio, and indeed nationwide. Vance indicted Ryan’s long tenure in politics by pointing out that “Tim Ryan represents a congressional district that has lost 50,000 jobs just in his time in office.”
On the issue of the economy, Vance also skillfully forced Ryan to own the harsh financial crisis created by Joe Biden for Americans who suffer from both a Biden recession as well as historic Biden-induced levels of inflation. This dreadful combination, unseen since the 1980s in America, forms a new era of stagflation: receding growth but rising prices, placing Ohioans into an economic vise.
Ryan tried to somehow paint Vance as a pro-China candidate, a laughable assertion considering that Vance stands out as one of the most aggressive economic populist nationalists in politics right now, advocating for much harsher tariffs on China to protect American workers from the predatory practices of the Chinese Communist Party.
Unfortunately, Ryan and his bestie Joe Biden have long coddled the CCP, to the great misfortune of Ohio workers. For example, from 2001 until 2016, Ohio lost a staggering 121,000 manufacturing jobs directly due to terrible trade deals with China.

It's very GOOD news for the GOP (and America incidentially) that it will be the economy that decides the mid-terms..
‘Pessimistic’ voters: Crushed by gas prices and fading personal finances
Voters are in a pessimistic mood as they head into the November midterm elections, deflated by rising gas prices and sinking personal finances, according to a memo obtained by Secrets.
Recently hopeful that high gas prices and inflation would be temporary, as the Biden administration had claimed, the switch back to higher prices has voters sour again, and that could result in Democrats paying a price at the polls.
“Voters have been pessimistic about the economy throughout 2022. However, there was a notable decline in pessimism over the course of the summer as gas prices fell. More recently, as gas prices have gone up again, economic pessimism has increased as well,” said the three-page memo.
It was done by pollster Scott Rasmussen’s RMG Research for the influential America First Policy Institute. The focus was the public’s “perception” of economic conditions a month from Election Day.
More than any other issue, RMG said personal finances are driving voters in an election reminiscent of the 1992 contest when former President Bill Clinton’s chief strategist James Carville famously wrote on a campaign office whiteboard, “The economy, stupid.”

So, as I said.. GOOD NEWS for the GOP... And America.. :D
More good news for the GOP... And bad news for Democrats...
Wawa shuttering two Philadelphia stores amid city's retail crime surge
Retail theft is up more than 50% in Philadelphia
A regional convenience store operator is closing two sites in the heart of Philadelphia's business district amid an uptick in retail crime. The stores are located on 12th and 19th and Market Streets in the Center City area.
"Despite reducing hours and investing in additional operational measures, continued safety and security challenges and business factors have made it increasingly difficult to remain open in these two locations," the company said in a statement on Thursday. "All associates from these two stores will be offered continued employment at Wawa."
Wawa, which currently has 40 stores in Philadelphia, did not disclose a timeline for the closures.

Democrats just can't catch a break, eh? :D
First, allow us to say one final thing, as Tulsi Gabbard officially departs the Democratic Party: "Buh-bye! Don't let the door hit you on your way out!"
And what do you say about all the OTHER Democrats that are leaving the Democrat Party by the MILLIONS??
Hmmmmmm????
Tulsi Gabbard is not alone
Gabbard's comments are certainly reflective of a wider sentiment among many on the liberal Left, myself included, who feel increasingly disenfranchised by Democrats' current policies. A recent Pew Research Center study underlines this political fatigue.
Discontented liberals make up 10% of adults. They are described as holding views ranging from "liberal" to "very liberal" on most social issues. Fifty-seven percent are women, and 83% are under the age of 50. They typically vote Democratic but are less politically engaged than others in the party. For example, this group was 9 percentage points less likely than the average citizen to vote in the 2020 presidential election and 11 points less likely to vote than the average Democrat. Only 3 in 10 identify as Democrats, and about 5 in 10 identify as Democratic-leaning independents. They are more likely to have supported Bernie Sanders in the 2020 Democratic primaries. Most reported feeling like "none of the candidates for public office represent their views well" and that there is little difference in what the two parties stand for.
For the roughly 3 in 4 who report not feeling "satisfied with the way things are going in the country," Gabbard’s message is a reminder that their disillusionment is real. But it also offers hope of change to come.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/courage-strength-optimism/tulsi-gabbard-is-not-alone
Are ya'all happy about all those millions of Democrats doing exactly what Tulsi Gabbard is doing??
Enquiring Minds Want To Know... :D
Biden's Inflation Reduction Act is not reducing inflation
Last summer, President Joe Biden and his entire White House economic team were swearing up and down that inflation was merely "transitory." They brushed off concerns that Biden's unnecessary post-COVID stimulus package was fueling the inflationary fire.
"As our economy comes roaring back, we've seen some price increases," Biden admitted. "My administration understands that, were we ever to experience unchecked inflation in the long term, that would pose a real challenge for our economy. While we're confident that isn't what we're seeing today, we're going to remain vigilant about any response that is needed."
In other words, they knew the risks they were running when they advanced inflationary policies such as Biden's so-called American Rescue Plan, borrowing and spending $1.9 trillion. They knew this year that they were doing more of the same when they advanced the farcically named Inflation Reduction Act, another inflationary bill fueled by deficit spending.
Now, everyone except Joe Biden will pay the price for his fecklessness. This week's data showing inflation stubbornly persisting at above 8% annually — a 40-year high — is a reminder of Democrats' cavalier and dishonest attitude toward this very real problem for middle- and low-income families.
For all their lip service to ideas about so-called "equity" and their feigned concern for the poor, Democrats have pursued a policy platform that brutally punishes low-income earners and disproportionately harms nonwhite Americans. Inflation, after all, is most damaging to people who rent instead of owning homes, lack access to sophisticated retirement savings vehicles, deal primarily in cash (typical of many immigrant populations), and spend a large proportion of their incomes on food, clothing, and shelter.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/editorials/bidens-inflation-reduction-act-is-not-reducing-inflation
Democrats have been WRONG on every economic decision they have made in the last 2 years..
Culminating with the HORRIBLY mis-named Inflation Reduction Act..
And act that actually INCREASED inflation!!
Leave it to Democrats, eh? :eyeroll:
OK OK OK...
Let's talk about the Cardassian 6JC...
And, let's hear from a DEMOCRAT about it, eh?? :D
January 6 and Justice Department Overreach: The Public Rejects Both
The public believes that former President Donald Trump bears significant and perhaps criminal responsibility for what happened at the Capitol on Jan. 6, but also believes that the Justice Department and the FBI are overreaching in their actions against the former president, his aides, and private citizens. The net of all the back and forth so far is that the ratings of Trump seem to have increased and the favorability of the Justice Department and FBI have declined.
Sometimes you have to fight fire with water, not fire. By that I mean when you are up against someone you believe is breaking the rules, strict adherence to the rules in pursuing them is of even greater importance to reestablish the rule of law. That’s not what the public sees happening here.
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2022/09/30/january_6_and_justice_department_overreach_the_public_rejects_both_148265.html
Get that?? The Cardassian 6JC has actually been GOOD for President Trump and BAD for Democrats!!
And THAT is not me saying that.. This is a DEMOCRAT and virulent Trump/America hater saying that...
Kinda puts the Cardassian 6JC all in perspective, doesn't it?? :D
Democrats = Cardassians....
Kinda apropos, eh?? :D
Take the January 6 Committee – could it have functioned if it had been properly constituted with nearly equal members of both parties and subpoena power for the minority as well as the majority? Of course. It would have been contentious, but all sides would have gotten to present their best arguments, and while Trump would have been held accountable for his actions on Jan. 6, Nancy Pelosi would have also had to explain if and why she rejected additional security. But instead, Pelosi pushed her partisan advantage to the limits. Little surprise then that the committee looks partisan and has no credibility with most Americans, even if the TV networks give it more time than the Super Bowl. In the July Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll run after the committee’s eight televised hearings, 55% of respondents, including 60% of independent voters, thought the committee was conducting its business in an unfair way.
This part bears repeating..
Little surprise then that the committee looks partisan and has no credibility with most Americans, even if the TV networks give it more time than the Super Bowl.
Get that?? Even though the Left Wing media gave the Cardassians more exposure than THE SUPER BOWL, the Cardassian 6JC STILL fell flat!!
**SIXTY PERCENT** of Americans think that the Cardassians.. er.. Democrats conducted the 6JC in an unfair manner...
Again.. That's not ME saying this..
That's a dyed-in-the-wool DEMOCRAT saying this...
Just the facts here...
Anyone wanna respond???
{{cccchhhiiiirrrrrppppp}}{{ccchhhiiirrrrpppp}}
No??
"Silence Gives Assent"
-Democrat Mantra
I accept the concession.. :D
Let’s look at the actions of the Justice Department. They could have moved in court to enforce the subpoena and asked a judge to demand that Trump turn over his remaining documents. Such a process would be similar to what happened in the fight over the Watergate Tapes or the Clinton historical tapes (that were ruled as personal, not government records). It would have allowed Trump’s lawyers to make their best arguments before a judge and the country. Instead, the Justice Department went to a low-level magistrate judge operating in a one-sided secret process to send dozens of FBI agents to raid the former President’s home. They used their maximum power, given to them to pursue fleeing cartels, against a former president.
Once again, Democrats prove they are Cardassians..
Worst, Democrats = Cardassians in a Banana Republic...
And, of course, the actions of the Cardassians/Democrats are CHEERED here in Weigantia®..
Another aspect of Weigantia® that has changed drastically since the onset of PTDS... :^(
The FBI and DOJ’s unprecedented method has split the country. Just over half of voters in the September version of the Harris poll say the Mar-a-Lago raid was a politically motivated use of force rather than the “least invasive” way to retrieve presidential documents. Another half say that the DOJ then exceeded the terms of its warrant by taking too much material from Mar-a-Lago. Americans remain unconvinced that a criminal investigation is even necessary: 52% of voters, including 54% of independents, think the former president’s having documents at home should be handled in non-criminal ways.
Six in 10 think that if the DOJ wanted Trump’s documents, it should have asked a judge and argued for its motion in open court rather than obtaining a warrant through a one-sided, closed proceeding. And 58% of Americans think the appointment of a special master to review the DOJ’s retrieved documents – as a federal judge later ordered – is reasonable.
No matter HOW ya'all want to spin this??
Democrats lose.. Democrats come out looking like Nazi StormTroopers...
That's such a GOOD (and accurate) look for today's Democrats... :^/
Since the Mar-a-Lago search on Aug. 8, Trump’s popularity has risen in defiance. Trump is now almost even at 46% favorable and 48% unfavorable, with the gap narrowing three points between the July and September Harris polls. Trump’s 2024 prospects are improving too: 59% of GOP voters in the September poll would pick Trump if the Republican presidential primary were held today – up 7 points from July. Even the recent Washington Post-ABC News poll has Trump beating Biden by 2 points while a majority thinks Trump should face possible indictment over Jan. 6.
Once again... Democrats PROVE that are simply consumed by PTDS... In their zeal to hang President Trump with ANYTHING, they are not only turning the American people AGAINST the Democrat Party...
The Democrats are actually HELPING President Trump's popularity and approval rating..
And is this ever mentioned here in Weigantia®?? Is it ever commented on how BADLY Democrats are frak'ing things up??
Nope... Not at all...
Funny how that is, eh? :^/
"The president's job approval rating is typically ihas been most closely associated with the results [of midterm elections]. Biden is this morning at an average of 42.9% approval rating.
That 42.9% is a tic less than Trump [in 2018], a few points under Obama [in 2010], basically identical to Bill Clinton in 1994.
On this metric, Joe Biden is right in that extreme danger zone for a president 28 days before the midterm."
-Steve Kornacki, NBC News
How embarrassing for Democrats, eh?? Biden's approval rating is LOWER than President Trump's!!
How bad that must hurt...
Aren't ya'all glad I am here.. If it weren't for me ya'all wouldn't know ANY of these facts!!! :D
Crap!! Reposted for clarity...
Gimme a break!! I'm getting old!! :D

Dear GOD you are full of shit!
1. Devon has never run you through NCIC. Doesn't mean another officer taking a Cyber Stalking report did not run you after you threatened to file a false report against Devon. WA State laws are very protective of victims of Cyber Stalking. Your threats of violence on this site, your hostility to being corrected when you post untrue statements, and your politically motivated bigotry all make you a legitimate threat to everyone's safety. By all means, put in a public record request with WA State Patrol for anytime your name has been run by someone in this state. It won't be Devon's name associated with it, I can guarantee you that! Go ahead, your are such the big man running your mouth on here. I encourage you to put the request in... PROVE ME RIGHT OR PROVE ME WRONG...I WANT YOU TO! You won't... because you are a cowardly little liar.
2. You intended to file a false police report because you had no idea whether Devon had run you through NCIC and came up with this notion all on your own. I never claimed that Devon was who I received the information from. Any claims of wrong doing on his part only in your own imagination. So any complaint against him you could have filed would have been a false report. Feel free to file a complaint with his police chief. I welcome it! I straight up DARE you to file a complaint. See the response you'll get back! AGAIN, PLEASE DO THIS! I am dying for you to prove me wrong! Cowardly little man stealing valor with his lies.
You claimed that the info I received was so detailed that it had to come from a report run through NCIC. You still haven't said what that info was.
Ever heard of NEXUS/LEXUS? Your information is easily accessible. Feel free to pay and run your name and see if it doesn't give you the same info that you claim that I have obtained.
You won't, because you know I am telling the truth and you are just a lying coward.
3. It's funny, you've responded to part of my post; but for some reason you did not respond to the part where I asked you why a public records request to FDLE for any information regarding an officer/deputy Michael Worley came back with no records found. So let me ask again... why would a request for records of someone with your name being a member of law enforcement in FL return zero files? WHY? The only answer would be that you were never in law enforcement. Strange that you claimed you were in law enforcement for years on this site and then suddenly changed it and started claiming that you were in "public safety" for 25 - 30 years.
So just to conclude...
You threatened to file a false police report against my husband because I proved you were lying simply using your own statements as proof. You threatened my husband's job and our well being simply because you are a pitiful excuse for a human.
I do not want to date you. The thought of you naked is only used if there is no ipecac syrup available. If your name was run, it was for legitimate reasons.
Any NCIC report that was run on you would be completely justified for the threat that you have made yourself out to be. You want to know if and who ran one, I told you how to obtain that info.
Since you are making threats from a different state than which we live, any investigations into your actions would be done by the FBI... you know, those liberal deep state agents out to get people like you. BOO!
sounds like just about everyone would like to see donald testify live before the committee, on both sides of the aisle. talk about must see tv!
also, would it be physically possible to call a detente on the question of who said what about whose spouse, and for what purpose? it's a waste of everyone's time anyway, so no back and forth, no details, let's just pretend that whole episode never happened, m'kay?
as a character in ally mcbeal used to say:
bygones!
[51]
Not as long as this fictional cop continues to try to make Weigantia all about him/all the time. He's a more sophisticated version of Don Harris and a complete waste of time. And he's a douchebag for stiffing CW out of the $100 bet he lost.
nypoet22
There is no question as to who said what about whose spouse. Michale is the only person to threaten the spouse of a commenter on here. I'm not sure how you would respond to Michale threatening to file a false report with your wife's employer claiming that she committed a crime that she did not do and that only happened in his imagination, but I took it quite seriously. Michale is the first one to tear his blouse falling to his knees screaming that he has been wronged and his loved one's good name attacked if anyone makes a joke that even remotely associates his unnamed wife to the punchline. Yet, no one has EVER threatened his wife in any way. Devon and I are the only two people that I can find looking through past posts where anyone on here has made a real threat to do another person harm. Has anyone ever threatened to take real action against another poster on here that you can recall? And if they did, were they allowed to remain?
I wish it would stop as well. Michale claims that Democrats do not support the police. He's named me, personally, when he makes such hyperbolic and ignorant accusations... so forgive me for feeling the need to correct him. Yes, it causes him to blow up and start ranting like a complete psychopath with no emotional control whatsoever. But you've been here longer than I have and know that Michale simply refuses to have civilized debate. The irony of his posting multiple comments that are all full of name calling against Kick and myself, questioning my relationship to my husband, my husband's honor, all while altering the actual events as they occurred to better fit his dishonest attack against us only to be followed by a post calling for no more nastiness would be comical if it weren't so stomach turning. He wants to attack my marriage while advertising the he seeks men to fulfill his wife's sexual needs that he was not able to fulfill...and despite the plethora of comments I could make regarding his wife's sexual nature... I have never made a single one. I won't get in the filth with him. But I am growing tired of his dishonesty. He won't follow through with any of the ways he could prove that I was lying... because he knows I was telling the truth. And if Chris is OK with him making real world threats against other posters and their family members on here... that's his call. JL, I hope you will encourage Michale to follow through and take the steps to prove me right or wrong by putting in the public disclosure requests
with the appropriate WA State agencies. That'll end all this bickering once and for all. The truth is what all of us want, right? Well, most of us anyways.
Russ
Okay, enough!
This is Chris's place and no place for personal business.
And, THAT is the truth!
i guess there's to be no peace in the middle-east then.
It's also the courteous way to behave when you are a guest in someone's place.
Sometimes, I think, we forget where we are and why we are here. Let's all think about that before we make our next comments ...
why are you up so late on a sunday night?
Ah, no, I'm not drunk ... just thinking a day ahead. Heh.
And, also no, I'm not trying to use up all my stash so I don't have to send it to Caddy ... I'm working on it ...
Still trying to find the right address ...
Caddy?
Russ The Shitty Husband..
Devon has never run you through NCIC.
That's NOT what you said 2 years ago..
The kind of information you CLAIMED to have can ONLY be garnered from an NCIC check..
So, either you are lying now or you were lying then..
Which is it??
You intended to file a false police report because you had no idea whether Devon had run you through NCIC
I had EVERY idea that your alleged spouse ran me thru NCIC because YOU claimed you had it done.. So either you are lying then or your lying now...
Which is it??
Ever heard of NEXUS/LEXUS? Your information is easily accessible.
NOT the kind of information you claimed to have.. THAT kind of information can ONLY be found in an NCIC check..
Feel free to pay and run your name and see if it doesn't give you the same info that you claim that I have obtained.
YOU claimed to have obtained it, you frakin' moron!!
Any NCIC report that was run on you would be completely justified for the threat that you have made yourself out to be. You want to know if and who ran one, I told you how to obtain that info.
AND like Vick The Moron you COMPLETELY ignore the sequence of events.. I only said that a complaint would be warranted AFTER you claimed you had your alleged spouse run an NCIC check on me..
So, either you were lying then and you DON'T have a spouse who is a police officer and NO CHECK was run on me...
Or you are lying NOW...
Which is it, Russ The Shitty Husband??
Russ The Shitty Husband,
There is no question as to who said what about whose spouse. Michale is the only person to threaten the spouse of a commenter on here.
Such a "threat" came ONLY after YOU had claimed you had your alleged spouse run an NCIC check on me..
ANY reasonable person, such as JL or Liz, would responded EXACTLY as I did at the time..
Having your alleged spouse run an NCIC check on me SOLELY BECAUSE you were getting your ass kicked?? He committed a FELONY, Russ The Shitty Husband??
What kind of a low-life of a man would do that to his spouse???
Obviously YOU are that kind of low life of a man..
Devon and I are the only two people that I can find looking through past posts where anyone on here has made a real threat to do another person harm.
If you hadn't stated for the record that you had this alleged "Devon" run an NCIC check on me, then none of it would have happened...
YOU brought this on yourself and this alleged "Devon", Russ The Shitty Husband..
Yet, no one has EVER threatened his wife in any way.
No, you and Vick The Moron and Bashi just horribly attacked her and dragged her into this Flame War...
What kind of a LOW LIFE would do that??
Oh yea.. That's right.. Russ The Shitty Husband kind of low life.. And Vick The Moron kind of low life..
But you've been here longer than I have and know that Michale simply refuses to have civilized debate.
Except JL is ON RECORD as stating JUST THE OPPOSITE.. He KNOWS I am here for civilized debate and has said so on MANY occasions..
YOU are the one who attacks my wife and claims you had this alleged "Devon" run an NCIC check on me..
Now, you CLAIM to want this to stop??
Fine.. Then state for the record that there was NO BACKGROUND/NCIC CHECK ever done..
State for the record that you were lying back then because you were sick and tired of having your ass kicked all over Weigantia®...
Confession is good for the soul, Russ The Shitty Husband...
State for the record that there was NO BACKGROUND/NCIC Check run on me by you or yours and that you were just full of shit back then and apologize for going off like that and we can put this WHOLE mess behind us and never bring it up again..
If you TRULY want it to stop?? THAT's how it is stopped..
Your call... You KNOW I'll be around..
I'll forgo any more discussion on this subject as it pertains to you, Russ until I hear back from you on my offer of truce...
MC
Not as long as this fictional cop
You must be stoned again, MC..
I believe it was YOU who established my bona fides as an LEO back when you were off the drugs and actually acting reasonable..
continues to try to make Weigantia all about him/all the time.
Says the guy who ONLY posts about me, making Weigantia® about me "all the time".. :D
Yep, you must be stoned..
and a complete waste of time.
And yet, here you are commenting about me.. AGAIN..
And I find it hilarious that you ONLY come out after I have closed down for the night..
Wassamatter, MC?? Got no scrot!??
BBBWWHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
JL,
also, would it be physically possible to call a detente on the question of who said what about whose spouse, and for what purpose? it's a waste of everyone's time anyway, so no back and forth, no details, let's just pretend that whole episode never happened, m'kay?
I'll be happy to...
Once Russ confirms and apologizes for LYING about having his alleged spouse run a Background/NCIC check on me, I'll be happy to forget and forgive..
*I* can do that quite easily, once those terms are met..
The only question is, is Russ a big enough man to meet me half way..
I have my doubts, but time will tell...
Liz,
Okay, enough!
This is Chris's place and no place for personal business.
And, THAT is the truth!
And yet, every time Vick and Russ and Bashi grossly and perversely attacks my wife, my kids and my grandkids, THEY make it personal...
Every time Russ and Vick call into question my WELL DOCUMENTED and WELL ESTABLISHED bona fides, they MAKE it personal..
But, as I said.. I am more than willing to let this all be water under the bridge..
But the likes of Russ and Vick and (to a lesser extent) Bashi refuse to let their line of BS go...
So, as long as they continue to make it personal, I will respond in kind..
It's really THAT simple...
But as I have offered Russ a way to end this, it's clear who wants this REALLY to stop and who wants to continue the attacks and flame wars...
The ball is in THEIR court, Liz...
If you want this to end, get them to help end it.. I can't do it on my own..
Well, since I am up, why not start the new day with some new facts.. :D
Looks like Dementia Biden has brought back Creepy Biden for a repeat performance..
Biden blasted for telling young girl 'no serious guys until you're 30': 'Creepy Joe is at it again'
Conservatives blasted Biden online, calling his behavior and comments 'creepy'
President Joe Biden drew criticism from conservatives on social media over a comment he made to a young teenager in California where he told her "no serious guys until you’re 30."
"Now a very important thing I told my daughters and granddaughters — no serious guys until you’re 30!" Biden said to an unknown young woman at an event in Irvine, California.
"Ok," the woman said as the president leaned in close. "I’ll keep that in mind."
Video of the exchange was posted on Twitter by reporter Kalen D’Almeida, who claimed members of the Secret Service tried to prevent him from filming. The video has been viewed almost 3 million times and earned pushback from social media users.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-blasted-telling-young-girl-no-serious-guys-until-30-creepy-joe-again
This is so disgusting..
According to the video, Dementia Biden leans into the girl, sniffs her hair and then says "no serious guys til your 30"...
What kind of sick old geezer DOES this!!???
And look how scared and uncomfortable the poor girl looks..
Groped by a dementia-ridden old guy???
Sick, Sick, Sick.. :^/
"She was 12, and I was 30, but anyway. This woman helped me get an awful lot done. Anyway."
-Dementia Joe Biden
Sick, Sick, Sick... So Biden at 30 thought that a 12 year old was a "woman" who helped Biden "get an awful lot done"..
:eyeroll:
Do we want to know what this 12yr old little girl help 30 yr old Biden got done??
How could Democrats elect such a pervert???

Remember a while ago, I was laughing so hard at the gay movie BROS... How the actor in it was complaining that no one came to see his movie and that ANYONE who didn't want to see it is a homophobic bigot??
Ya'all remember that??
Well, the facts have come out.. No one wanted to see it because it was simply a horrible movie..
Why ‘Bros’ Bombed
The exact right amount of people saw the gay romcom.
The algorithm knows I’m a man and gay, so I’m often served news about Britney, bodybuilding videos, and, more recently, nonstop ads for the Universal movie Bros, written by Billy Eichner.
There are moments when Bros is funny—a self-deprecating lampoon of gay life. But mostly it’s a preachy, self-indulgent dumpster fire. At one point, Bobby harangues Aaron’s mother about the need to teach her second-grade students about queer history. The two long hours are replete with partisan finger-wagging, lamentations about erasure, and performative apologies from Bobby for being a “cis white guy.” Half of this alleged comedy is devoted to Bobby’s cranky monologues.
Turns out, I’m not the only one who felt this way: the romcom flopped opening weekend, earning $4.8 million, “about 40 percent less than the low end of prerelease analyst expectations,” according to the New York Times. Alas, Eichner blamed dismal box-office sales, in a now-deleted Twitter tirade, on “homophobic weirdo” audiences “in certain parts of the country”—which is exactly what we’d expect from the movie’s perennially whiney Bobby.
Here’s the truth: bigotry is not to blame for the failure of Bros. In fact, most Americans don't care whom you sleep with (or marry!) and have seen complex, three-dimensional gay characters on their screens for years, from Milk to Moonlight.
The EXACT problem with BROS is, coincidentally, the EXACT problem with Democrats in general..
Democrats believe that EVERYONE thinks like they do.. And Democrats ALSO believe that those who DON'T think like Democrats do are bigots, racists and all around evil people..
We see this attitude reflected in practically EVERY commentary and practically EVER comment and commenter here in Weigantia®
There are notable exceptions and they know who they are..
And yes.. BROS bombed because it was a gay movie.. But it wasn't because of any gay-hate or bigotry..
BROS bombed because it was created solely and completely to be a political/ideological statement..
That was NUMERO UNO priority.. And actual plot and funny stuff were incidental.. They made a POLITICAL/IDEOLOGICAL movie and then tacked on a plot and laughs as an afterthought.
This part bears repeating..
There are moments when Bros is funny—a self-deprecating lampoon of gay life.
BROS was ONLY funny when it was making fun of gay people...
Let that sink in for a moment..
A gay man thinks that BROS was only funny when it was making fun of gay men and gay lifestyle... In other words, it was FUNNY when it was mocking the gay lifestyle...
Now WHY do you think that is?? Hmmmmm???
BROS bombed because it was created solely and completely to be a political/ideological statement..
That was NUMERO UNO priority.. And actual plot and funny stuff were incidental.. They made a POLITICAL/IDEOLOGICAL movie and then tacked on a plot and laughs as an afterthought.
It's the exact same reason that Discovery's 4th season bombed..
The set out to make a political/ideological movie and then tacked on some Trek as an afterthought..
I mean, honestly..
There was ACTUAL DIALOUGE in the movie where Doc Hobart said, "We have to discuss our feelings!!"....
Gene Roddenberry was rolling in his grave throughout all of S4 of Discovery...
Americans get enough political and ideological crap shoved down their throats in their every day lives....
Americans turn to TV and Movies to **ESCAPE** the political/ideological crap... So any show or movie made for the EXPRESSED PURPOSE of pushing an unpopular and scientifically inaccurate political/ideological agenda??
It's going to bomb.. Sure as night follows day follows night, that show or movie will BOMB...
Americans will show their displeasure with their wallets..
Just like Americans will show their displeasure with their votes in 23 days.. :D
The kind of information you CLAIMED to have can ONLY be garnered from an NCIC check..
No, it can be pulled from any service that does background checks. You are the only one who ever mentioned NCIC checks being run and you were the only one who ever claimed that it was Devon who you believed had run your criminal history. Lexis/Nexis site provides criminal records for a fee.
https://www.lexisnexis.com/ga_criminalrecords/
WOW! So I guess you were wrong about how there was the only one place that I could have gotten your criminal history! You'd think that someone with your vast law enforcement bona ducci's would have known that.
You still have not explained why a public records request for your work history in law enforcement would turn up zero hits with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Could it be that you've been lying this whole time about all your years in law enforcement???
Also, you blew it when you said that the only way I could know that your criminal history would have prevented you from working in law enforcement was to have seen a copy of your criminal record.
Meet you half way? For a lying sack of waste like yourself... no chance! Double down on your lies... it'll just be more humiliating for you in the end.
In keeping with the theme...
Why Did Billy Eichner’s ‘Bros’ Bomb at the Box Office?
Straight People Aren’t Entirely to Blame
The marketing prioritized the film’s importance over the film’s comedy.
When “Bros” was announced to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, the press release for the movie called it “one of the first romantic comedies from a major studio to feature an almost entirely 2SLGBTQIA+ cast.” TV spots for “Bros” prioritized a pull quote calling the film “as hilarious as it is historic.” The point here is that “Bros” marketing worked overtime to sell its importance as the first major LGBTQ studio comedy, but aggressively marketing a movie as a glass-ceiling breaker can make it feel like homework for viewers. Many box office pundits agree Universal leaned too much into the film’s importance instead of marketing some of the film’s comedic set pieces in order to get across that it’s a comedy that’s, well, actually very funny. Rarely did the marketing highlight the film is from the director of popular comedies “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” and “Neighbors,” if at all.
While inclusivity and glass-ceiling breaking are important factors worth celebrating and can stir up interest in a movie, they can’t be the sole focal point of a movie’s marketing. Just look at what happened to Warner Bros.’ “In the Heights,” which didn’t market its storyline or characters and instead went all-in on the movie being a game-changer for Latinx representation on the big screen. “In the Heights” bombed with an $11.4 million opening, though it was also available to stream on HBO Max at the same time (streaming numbers were also reportedly low, however).
Jo Koy’s August comedy “Easter Sunday” also seemed to promote the historic nature of a film that represents the Filipino community over the laughs that would bring in all moviegoers. That film bombed as well, making just over $13 million worldwide on a $17 million budget.
https://variety.com/2022/film/box-office/bros-box-office-bomb-why-billy-eichner-comedy-flopped-1235391341/
Ya'all seeing the pattern here??
When movies and tv shows set out to make a POLTICAL or IDEOLOGICAL movie or tv show and just tack on the most important parts like a plot, clever dialogue, etc etc??
That movie or tv show will bomb...
The facts that prove this beyond ANY DOUBT are as plentiful as they are conclusive..
Russ The Shit Husband
No, it can be pulled from any service that does background checks. You are the only one who ever mentioned NCIC checks being run and you were the only one who ever claimed that it was Devon who you believed had run your criminal history. Lexis/Nexis site provides criminal records for a fee.
You can spew all the BS you want Russ.. It STILL doesn't change the fact of what you did.. And if it HAD been anything but an NCIC check, why didn't you say so at the time??
You didn't say anything at the time because you DIDN'T do it any other way except thru your alleged spouse running an illegal NCIC check..
You're busted, Russ The Shit Husband..
The FACTS clear prove beyond **ANY** doubt that you had your alleged spouse run an NCIC check on me...
I can prove it..
Give me the Department your supposed spouse works for and his badge number... If it is as you say and I am filing a false police report, your alleged spouse has absolutely NOTHING to worry about and *I* will be the one in trouble..
But you won't do that, will you Russ The Shit Husband.. Because you KNOW you are dirty and you KNOW your supposed spouse committed a felony..
But hay... Let's say for the sake of the argument that I am wrong.. I am not and the facts PROVE I am not, but let's pretend...
Even if I AM wrong about your alleged spouse was the one that ran the check..
YOUR SIMPLE ADMISSION THAT YOU RAN A BACKGROUND CHECK ON ME IS DAMNING ENOUGH!!!!
You took a political argument into the realm of real life...
Such a moronic and low-life act would get you banned from ANY respectable forum on the Internet..
You still have not explained why a public records request for your work history in law enforcement would turn up zero hits with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Could it be that you've been lying this whole time about all your years in law enforcement???
And you even went to far as to go thru FDLE!!????
BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You just keep digging your hole deeper and deeper, Russ The Shitty Husband, eh?? :D
Who said anything about being an LEO in Florida??
Do you see how utterly STOOPID you are, Russ The Shit Husband?? You are EYEROLLING stoopid...
Meet you half way? For a lying sack of waste like yourself... no chance! Double down on your lies... it'll just be more humiliating for you in the end.
OK Liz... Jean Luc... I tried.. Russ The Shit Husband simply wants to continue the Flame War... So be it.. :^/ Can't say I am happy about it.. But it's the principle of the thing..
Now let's get back to the gay lifestyle film that bombed..
gay and straight people joining forces to shit on billy eichner and bros is the closest we'll ever get to unity
-@sicksadchris, TWITTER
Those in the gay lifestyle and those who are straight actually AGREE on BROS...
It was simply a BAD movie...
“Bros”???? I just feel like nobody in 2022 wants to go see a rom com in theaters during spooky season led by one of the most polarizing gay white men in Hollywood
I asked my husband if he wanted to go see “Bros” and his first question was “is Billy going to be screaming the entire time?”
Shon!, TWITTER
And here is the big one..
Hollywood, take note: Billy Eichner explicitly said that he didn’t want Gay Republicans or ANY Republicans to see #BrosMovie and it tanked.
If you want to entertain audiences you could start by not actively hating them!
@Rob Smith, TWITTER
Even before it opened, BROS was a luser...
The politics/ideological aspects of the movie were clear from day one...
I wouldn't see the movie Bros if you paid me $1000. It's woke garbage.
-Pamela Hensley, TWITTER
It's WOKE garbage..
And what have I always said that has ALWAYS been proven to be factually accurate??
GO WOKE... GO BROKE....

Now, let's get back to the return of Creepy Joe Biden...
According to the video, Creepy Biden leans into a girl, sniffs her hair and then starts caressing her shoulders..
Creepy Joe is like almost 90 and this girl couldn't have been older than 16....
THIS is the guy ya'all support and defend..
It's mind-boggling...
Here we have YOUR DEMOCRAT LEADER assaulting a girl..
And the reaction from Weigantians®???

'Creepy' footage of Joe Biden with young girl sparks heated debate
https://au.news.yahoo.com/creepy-footage-of-joe-biden-with-young-girl-sparks-heated-debate-041807930.html
OK let's have some heated debate on this, eh?? :D
Naw, there can't be any heated debate here..
First off, no one here (NEN) WANTS to debate anything that puts Democrats in a bad light..
And Secondly... No one here can or will actually DEFEND Creepy Biden in this gross and perverse act...
If President Trump had done something like that, ya'all would be hysterically screamed sexual assault... :^/
Don't bother to deny.. We *ALL* know that is a fact..
Hypocrisy.. It's not a bug in Democrat programming. It's a feature..
Russ The Shit Husband
I can prove it..
Give me the Department your supposed spouse works for and his badge number... If it is as you say and I am filing a false police report, your alleged spouse has absolutely NOTHING to worry about and *I* will be the one in trouble..
I will require a picture of your alleged spouse in full uniform with close ups of his shoulder patch and badge with badge number readable..
I know you will refuse to do that..
And it's likely because this so-called spouse of yours doesn't even exist..
Which makes ALL your claims since the day you arrived here nothing but bullshit..
You were a 911 operator who got fired because he would do some racist thing that your supervisor wanted you to do..

Shit Husband Russ... You really can tell the tall tales, eh?? :D
Biden blasted for telling reporter the economy is 'strong as hell' while eating ice cream in Portland
The comment came a day after Biden was criticized for telling a teen girl in Irvine, California not to date until she's 30
A day after President Joe Biden drew criticism from conservatives on social media for giving unsolicited dating advice to a young teen girl in California, the president is again in hot water for claiming the "economy is strong as hell."
The comment came during a conversation with a reporter at a Baskin Robbins in Portland, Oregon, who asked the president if he had any worry about the strength of the U.S. dollar amid rising inflation.
With a chocolate chip ice cream cone in his hand, Biden answered: "I’m not concerned about the strength of the dollar. I’m concerned about the rest of the world. Our economy is strong as hell."

Obama bashes woke Dems! Former president complains Democrats are BUZZKILLS - who make people 'walk on eggshells' ahead of midterm election campaign
Former President Barack Obama took some shots at his fellow Democrats, calling them 'buzzkills' and lamenting cancel culture in an interview Friday
Obama, speaking to four of his former employees on the Pod Save America podcast, said that not being a buzzkill gives him satisfaction
'Sometimes Democrats are [buzzkills]. Sometimes people just want to not feel as if they are walking on eggshells,' he said
Obama added that his fellow Dems should learn from what he felt were his mistakes as president, like being too professorial
The former president will spend the last few weeks leading into the midterms stumping for some of those Democrats in Georgia and Wisconsin

According to the Washington Post, a 2020 poll by Gallup rated Obama as the second most admired man among Americans, just slightly behind Trump and ahead of President Joe Biden.
Let's play that again...

OK We have an NNL issue here..
Everyone bear with me..

OK That worked..
Hinkle’s verbal decision Wednesday came after testimony from state witnesses including an angry and tearful father
OK THAT'S good..
“de-transitioned”
Test #4
and an endocrinologist
OK Good...
transgender son died of a fentanyl and alcohol overdose, a pregnant woman
NAILED IT!!! :D
Gods, I am sooo good!! :D
Hay Moderator... Your WordPress NNL filters engage with the word 'testostarone' when it is spelled properly...
Just FYI...
OK Now, let's see the whole comment..
Judge Refuses to Halt Transgender Treatment Rule
Hinkle’s verbal decision Wednesday came after testimony from state witnesses including an angry and tearful father whose transgender son died of a fentanyl and alcohol overdose, a pregnant woman who “de-transitioned” after taking testos-terone* as a teenager, and an endocrinologist who maintains that transgender people should be provided mental-health treatment rather than medical interventions.
https://tallahasseereports.com/2022/10/13/judge-refuses-to-halt-transgender-treatment-rule/
Transgenderism is a MENTAL health issue..
Not a physiological health issue...
It's a disease of the mind, not a disease of the body...
It should be addressed with MENTAL HEALTH treatment..
NOT surgeries and drugs...
The SCIENCE is clear on the issue...
Of course Democrat "science" says otherwise..
But, as I have proven beyond any doubt, based on the FACTS, Democrat "Science" is nothing but very thinly disguised Democrat activism..
The proof is all around us..
* Intentionally written incorrectly to evade the dreaded NNL filters.. :D
The judge also heard from Yaacov Sheinfeld, whose 28-year-old transgender son died of a fentanyl and alcohol overdose after taking testos-terone for a decade and having surgery as an adult.
“All I now is … that the system … influenced her into a journey that killed her. She’s dead. I buried her a year ago. And I’m angry,” said a tearful Sheinfeld, whose child had a long history of depression and mental-health problems.
Zoe Hawes, a 28-year-old pregnant woman who also testified for the state, said she was diagnosed with anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and gender dysphoria at age 15 and began taking testos-terone at age 16.
She said her experience was “not great” and that she continued to be suicidal throughout her hormone treatment, which she discontinued four years later.
“I realized that my peace was not going to come from changing my body,” she said.
And there you have it...
Peace for those suffering from Gender Dysphoria doesn't come from mutilating bodies and taking a buttload of drugs..
Peace of trans come from MENTAL health treatments...
The facts are OVERWHELMINGLY conclusive...
OK Back to Creepy Dementia Biden..
The Stagflation President
Column: Joe Biden’s terrible economic legacy
Another month, another bad report. On October 13 the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that consumer price inflation, at an 8.2 percent annualized rate, was higher than expected through September. Americans continue to endure the worst inflation in four decades. They continue to experience a decline in real average hourly earnings. They continue to tell pollsters that the economic recession has arrived. Blerina Uruci, an economist at T. Rowe Price, does not like what she sees. "This is very troubling," Uruci told the New York Times. "The trend is very troubling."
Not at the White House. It doesn’t see any troubles. According to President Biden, the most recent BLS data are superfluous. After all, everybody already knows that "Americans are squeezed by the cost of living: that’s been true for years, and they didn’t need today’s report to tell them that." As a matter of fact, Biden said in a statement, rising costs are "a key reason I ran for President." And anyway, the situation is under control. "My policies—that Democrats delivered—directly tackles [sic] price pressures we saw in today’s report."
https://freebeacon.com/columns/the-stagflation-president/
More ignorant spin from the Groper In Chief... :^/
Wonder how he is going to explain away Dems losing the House and Senate?? :D
OK Let's get to 100 and I'll take a break.. :D
End of story, thank you all very much, nothing to see here, move along, move along.
Just a minute. Biden’s reading of recent economic history is filled with evasions, half-truths, and "yarns." They deserve comment and rebuttal. I don’t remember Biden staking his 2020 candidacy on inflation. He couldn’t have. The inflation hadn’t happened. It didn’t arrive until the spring of 2021. By which time Biden was living—during weekdays, at least—at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Nor do I recall Biden warning the country about the coming threat of rising prices. To the contrary: Varsity Joe was captain of "Team Transitory." The "temporary" inflation would subside, he and his teammates argued, as kinks in the supply chain got worked out and the Federal Reserve tightened the money supply.
They were wrong, of course. Inflation persisted. By the winter of 2022, Biden was blaming high prices on corporate greed and "Putin’s price hike." Now he says inflation is the fault of the opposition party. No reason is provided; this president isn’t into causality. "If Republicans take control of Congress," Biden warns, "everyday costs will go up—not down."
The Groper In Chief blames everyone but who is ACTUALLY to blame.. Him and his incompetent Democrat cronies...
:^/
Not long after Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act, he issued a constitutionally dubious executive order forgiving college debt. It will increase the government’s cost of student loans by an estimated $400 billion. Meanwhile, to lower gasoline prices ahead of the midterm election, he drained the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to its lowest level in 40 years. Now the returns on that strategy are diminishing. The cost of gasoline is rising once again. Is this a chance to deregulate domestic energy production and build more refineries? That would be a serious response. Instead, Biden threatens reprisals against OPEC+ and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Creepy Dementia Biden's and Democrats' actions are a threat to America's security and future..
This moron simply CAN'T get impeached fast enough...
The economy shrank during the first half of 2022. In March, the Federal Reserve began ratcheting up interest rates to squash inflation. The hikes haven’t resulted in price stability. But they have led to the highest mortgage rates in 20 years, growing volatility in debt markets, and the increasing likelihood of a prolonged recession and financial crisis. National Economic Council director Brian Deese likes to say that the U.S. economy is "in a period of transition." The transition is from bad to worse.
By subsidizing demand while restricting supply, President Biden has revived the economic maladies that afflicted the American economy when he entered public life a half century ago. Biden has turned gold into dross and, amazingly, expects to be rewarded for it. "The president and I were talking at lunch today about this," Vice President Kamala Harris said in a recent interview with the Nation magazine. "We are so proud—and I hope I don’t give off any bravado in saying this—but we are so proud that we will end up being the most pro-labor administration probably ever."
Sorry, madame vice president, but your bravado is showing. The unions might be happy. The other 90 percent of the workforce is not. Expect to hear from them in November.
In 23 days, Creepy Dementia Biden will hear the voice of the American people..
And it will NOT be a pleasant sound for Democrats.. :D
Pollster calls Charlie Crist ‘defanged’ after Florida survey shows him badly trailing DeSantis
New poll shows DeSantis up 11 points over Crist
https://www.foxnews.com/media/pollster-calls-crist-defanged-after-florida-survey-shows-him-badly-trailing-desantis
Governor DeSantis is going to use Charlie Crist to mop up the mess from Hurricane Ian! :D
Flakey Flip Flop Crist doesn't stand a chance!! :D
A pollster called Florida gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist "defanged" after a survey showed him badly trailing Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy survey showed Crist trailing DeSantis by an 11-point percentage, so Brad Coker attempted to explain why the Democratic challenger is losing.
The survey was conducted Sept. 28, as Hurricane Ian was putting the Sunshine State in the national news cycle. In an NBC News report, Coker suggested Crist is at a disadvantage because he wasn’t in office during the deadly storm.
"DeSantis is going to be Governor Hurricane for the next couple weeks. The disadvantage Crist has is two-fold: he’s completely out of the news and he never managed a hurricane so he can’t stand up and point to what he did. So Crist is totally, totally defanged," Coker said.
And THAT is all she wrote for Charlie Crist and the possibility that me might be the next Governor of FL... :D
Charlie??? Buh Bye.... :D
And ONE HUNDRED COMMENTS!!!

Teens are pouring milk out in grocery stores in new trend to raise awareness about dairy production emissions
The “milk pours” took place at eight different locations Saturday, including London, Manchester, Norwich, and Edinburgh
The latest environmentalist trend is here: pouring out milk in grocery stores.
All across the United Kingdom, teenagers concerned about the environment are doing "milk pours." The new trend involves going into grocery stores, picking up cartons of cow-produced milk, and pouring out their contents, according to the animal rights group Animal Rebellion.
Videos that have popped up on social media show teens pouring milk onto the floor, over sales counters, and elsewhere in the store.

Democrats Spent $2 Trillion to Save the Economy. They Don’t Want to Talk About It.

Oh yea, that's right..
They DECIMATED our economy!! :^/
And let's go visit Pennsylvania where the Democrat Senate Candidate is disabled by stroke...
Journalist Rushes to Delete Inconvenient Truth About John Fetterman and His Wife
A Rolling Stone journalist committed a mortal sin on Saturday morning, daring to tell the truth about Pennsylvania senate candidate John Fetterman.
The hits have been piling up against the Democrat after an MSNBC interview revealed that he’s far worse off cognitively than his campaign had previously revealed. The reality that he needs closed captioning, and even then, still can’t always understand what he’s responding to, left many voters feeling misled.
For months, the Fetterman campaign had insisted he was generally fine and was on track to recover completely from the massive stroke he suffered back in May. Over the last week, though, the switch flipped as it became impossible to hide the truth. The narrative went from “he’s fine” to “he’s disabled, and you are an ableist bigot if you question his fitness for office” in record time.
On that subject, one of Fetterman’s chief defenders has been his wife, Gisele Fetterman. She actually went so far as to demand there be “consequences” for the MSNBC reporter who exposed her husband’s condition.
https://redstate.com/bonchie/2022/10/15/journalist-rushes-to-delete-inconvenient-truth-about-john-fetterman-and-his-wife-n643528
*I* have had a stroke.. I know how debilitating it can be.. I was dizzy and couldn't speak very well.. I was blinded in one eye and had to forgo carrying my weapon temporarily because I wasn't sure of myself and my ability to respond to a threat...
I SURE AS HELL wasn't in ANY condition to run for Senate!!!
Fetterman should have done the honorable thing and removed himself from the election..
A Democrat?? Honorable??
"Honorable... pfffffttt"
-Jim Carrey, LIAR LIAR
So you are telling me that Fetterman is so brain-damaged and incapable of performing the job he seeks that his wife is actually the puppet master behind the scenes? That sounds awfully familiar to the situation between Joe Biden and Jill Biden, with the latter operating as the formers handler in public, ushering him around and telling him what to say.
What is it with the wives of Democrat politicians and having such naked ambition that they’ll put their husbands through hell to gain and hold onto power? The idea that Gisele Fetterman is a reluctant “political star,” as the article suggests, is laughable. She wants fame and power badly.
Apparently, MRS Fetterman is as power hungry as her husband..
One has to wonder if she had anything to do with Fetterman's stroke..
Here’s the thing, though. Gisele Fetterman is not running for office. She has never been elected to anything and won’t be in November. She is irrelevant, and if she is the “de facto” candidate in place of her husband, then her husband should drop out of the race immediately. It is not endearing or empowering to pretend Gisele Fetterman is something more than what she is.
What Voght’s deleted tweet (and piece) laid out, even though she didn’t mean for it to, is that John Fetterman is not fit to be a US senator. It is obvious to any onlooker willing to be intellectually honest. If he and his wife won’t end this farce themselves, then voters should in a few weeks at the polls. Fetterman is not going to magically get better by January.
Exactly....
Why can't Democrats EVER act with even a SEMBLANCE of honesty and integrity??
Clarence Page: The LA City Council scandal reveals ethnic politics at its worst
Never say anything important to anybody, I once heard a Chicago politician say, without presuming that they’re wearing a wire.
I know some Los Angeles City Council members who should have followed that advice before talking trash about some of their fellow Democrats.
Our best ideas often come out of freewheeling discussions. Unfortunately, so do some of our worst inclinations.
In an uproar that reached all the way to President Joe Biden’s White House, the City Council members who can be heard in an audio recording reported in the Los Angeles Times probably wish their private conversation had stayed private.
The central figures in this October 2021 conversation were City Council President Nury Martinez — who has since resigned from the council — and two fellow council members, as well as a labor ally.

Is ANYONE here surprised that it's Democrats who are the closet (and not so closeted) racists??
I don't know why it would be...
I have been telling ya'all that for over 15 years!
It's nice to be constantly and consistently vindicated, I must say that.. :D
“Here’s the difference between Democrats and MAGA Republicans: When a Democrat says something racist or antisemitic, ... we hold Democrats accountable. When a MAGA Republican says something racist and/or antisemitic, they are embraced by cheering crowds and become celebrated and sought after.”

Something we haven't touched on in a while..
Democrats' open border policies..
‘Root causes’ aren’t behind migrant surge — it’s open borders
As the nation’s “Border Czar,” Vice President Kamala Harris is 20 months into carrying out the White House’s signature “root causes” immigration plan to bring order and security to America’s southern border. The idea behind it was that if America fixes the poverty, physical insecurity, and bad governance that drive emigration from three big sending nations — Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador — its citizens will rather stay home.
Voila! American border squared away.
So how’s that root causes nation-building project working out so far?
Short answer: About as well as the idea worked for European liberals who first concocted the root-causes doctrine in the early 1980s, resurrected it after the catastrophic mass migration of 2014-2015, and have seen it fail miserably ever since. Border Patrol apprehension numbers, widely regarded as the chief indicator of total crossings, is the ultimate progress report.
https://nypost.com/2022/10/13/root-causes-arent-behind-migrant-surge-its-open-borders/
Just like the Demonrat DEFUND, DEMONIZE, DEMORALIZE THE POLICE policies, Demonrat's open border policies are a big reason why Demonrat's are getting Uber Nuclear Biblically Shellacking in 23 days!! :D
President Trump did TONS better on the Border than Demonrats could EVER hope for..
And that's not ME saying that.. That's DEMOCRATS saying that..
Creepy Dementia Biden and Headboard Harris are completely, utterly, unequivocally and 1000% responsible for the huge mess that is the US's southern border..
And, unfortunately for ya'll, it's going to be a BIG reason why Democrats are toast in 23 days...
With an eye on the End Of The Year McGlaughlin Awards....
DeSantis migrant flights may continue, records suggest, including to Delaware and Illinois
Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration may keep flying migrants from the border to Democratic states using Florida taxpayer money, according to newly released public records.

I vote Governors DeSantis & Abbotts BRILLIANT move of exposing the blatany and hypocrisy of Democrats and their Virtue Signaling SANCTUARY communities as the BEST and/or MOST EFFECTIVE POLITICAL MOVE..
These 2 members of THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GOVERNORS really showed up Democrats in New York, Illinois and Martha's Vineyard.. :D
MV especially... Those hypocrits couldn't get rid of the illegals fast enough.. Less then 2 days and all the illegals were rounded up and deported to a military base!!
Hypocrisy.. It's not a bug in Democrat programming.. It's a feature..
Creepy Dementia Biden and the Demonrats are going to try to extend the COVID bullshit to the midterms..
Biden’s never-ending ‘COVID emergency’ is nothing more than a cynical power grab
If President Joe Biden believes “the pandemic is over,” as he declared on “60 Minutes” weeks ago, why on earth did his team just extend the COVID “public health emergency” through mid-January? Pretty clearly because it gives him unilateral power on other fronts.
The most obvious two: his student-loan giveaway and his sudden effort to keep out at least some illegal migrants.
COVID itself has receded into a background threat, much like the flu, that can’t actually justify the massive broadening of executive power that a true emergency entails. But the midterms are coming, so Joe wants to posture — and this transparently cynical power grab enables it.
https://nypost.com/2022/10/14/bidens-never-ending-covid-emergency-is-nothing-more-than-a-cynical-power-grab/
Demonrats know that they can't win a FAIR election.. They cheated and defrauded like CRAZY in 2020 and STILL barely managed to squeek a win...
Demonrats are trying to do the same thing in 23 days..
But they will fail.... :D
Meanwhile, the disastrous impact of Biden’s open-border policy has grown so nationally visible that the White House feels compelled to turn away some migrants, and the handiest tool for that is to use the Title 42 public-health rules — which Team Trump used to deny entry to “asylum seekers,” a policy Biden denounced, largely abandoned and was seeking to formally end until practically yesterday. But, again, no “emergency,” no emergency power.
So COVID must remain officially a threat, lest the prez have to admit that he actually does have the power to turn the hordes away under other laws, when AOC and the Democratic base want the border kept open under the “it’s the law” excuse.
This is cynicism on top of cynicism: Extending a non-emergency so you can temporarily reverse course to help Democrats running tough midterm races while giving yourself the out to “have to” fully reopen the border after Election Day.
This is the old standby. “Never let an emergency go to waste” on steroids: Officially extending an emergency so you can keep on exploiting it for selfish political reasons. The party that keeps talking about “the threat to our democracy” can’t resist trashing the democratic rule of law to serve its own partisan needs. What total frauds.
No matter HOW ya'all want to spin, no matter HOW bad Demonrats cheat...
They are going down!!!
23 days...
Winter's coming
Liz,
Count me in for tonight's Weigantia® Music Fest... :D
I have some really kewl tunes I want to share.. :D
Shit Husband Russ...
I have the PERFECT way to explain things to you in a manner you can understand..
As I have said (ad nauseum) my military bona fides and my LEO bona fides have been WELL established long before you even came to Weigantia® and destroyed all the me and JL and Liz and (of course) CW had built...
CW established my military bona fides and MC established my LEO bona fides.
So my status as a former LEO is well established, well documented and accepted as FACT by everyone with more than two brain cells to rub together...
But irregardless of the established FACTS, let me explain things in a manner you can understand..
I identify as Police Officer.. I have known I was a cop since I was 6 years old..
My pronouns are Officer, Lieutenant, LEO and Sir...
There ya go..
The issue is put to you in a manner that a Demonrat like yerself can understand.
And you HAVE to accept that BECAUSE you are a Demonrat in good standing..
"Are we done here?"
-Todd, STARGATE ATLANTIS
And you HAVE to accept that BECAUSE you are a Demonrat in good standing..
Allow me to be more specific...
You are a cop hating America hating Demonrat in good standing...
fini
And NOW back to violent crime.. One of the BIGGEST issues that is going to sink Demonrats in 23 days..
Pritzker Democrats and the Safe-T Act, Releasing Violent Criminals Upon the People and Pretending There is No Cost
The Democrats are pushing that SAFE-T Act of theirs. It will let violent criminals out of jail and the people of Illinois are supposed to keep their mouths shut about that. If you dare say complain, Pritzker and the Illinois Democrat Party he’s bought, and the corporate legacy media in Illinois will call you a racist.
Who wants to be called a racist? It’s like being called a white supremacist. The next step is a knock on the door from the FBI.
https://johnkassnews.com/pritzker-democrats-and-the-safe-t-act-a-push-too-far-or-more-shut-up-and-take-it/
If Demonrats didn't have the race card, they would have no cards at all..
Being accused of being a racist by a Demonrat is both an honor and a joke...
Because it's clear from all the facts that it is the Democrat Party who is the racist Party..
This is proven very easily..
Demonrats, AS A PARTY, completely and utterly support Affirmative Action...
Affirmative Action is FACTUALLY and DEMONSTRABLY a racist program.. It's an example of only TWO instances of systemic/institutionalized racism left in this country..
Since the Demonrat Party AS A PARTY supports fully and completely Affirmative Action, then that proves that the Demonrat Party is the Racist Party...
QED
“This is not political for me,” Glasgow said. “Jim Rowe and I are Democrats. On September 22 we were the first two prosecutors to file suit to declare this law unconstitutional, which it truly is…Trying to amend this law, because it’s unconstitutional, is like doing a heart transplant on a cadaver.”
Glasgow explained what will happen when no-cash bail becomes the law in January, when it will be too late to reverse course, as the jails are emptied of violent offenders, as the hard left celebrates and makes virtue-signaling tweets.
“The reason I’m able to have peace and quiet in Will County is that I’m able to restrain the volent offenders,” Glasgow said. “When Chicago gang members come to Will County [and commit crime], they usually don’t leave, they’re in the Will County Jail. The word gets to Chicago, they don’t come here anymore.”
But as the Democrat Safe-T Act begins releasing arrestees from jails, Glasgow and other prosecutors will lose that leverage to keep public order.
“I lose that ability and then the violent predators who are terrorizing Chicago, they’re going to branch out,” he said. “It’s always the path of least resistance. We give them maximum resistance in Will County. I’ll lose all that with this new law.”
Only a complete and utter MORON would think that the No Bail law will decrease violent crime..
:eyeroll:
Basically Demonrats in Illinois are creating the PURGE for real in Illinois..
If I recall correctly, I believe even LIZ and JL are opposed to this...
It figures that the 3 Founders would be the only ones with more than 2 brain cells to rub together.. :D
Bashi,
I encountered a bunch of LewDan posts. What a loss for this board. I did not always agree but he had an interesting perspective
Yea.. And one of those "perspectives" was accusing the late CW of being a racist.. Much like MC accused the current moderator of being a racist..
If I recall correctly LewDan was "helped" out the door by ol' CW.. :D I might be mis-remembering that.. It's been known to happen..
I'm just sayin'.. :D
Liz,

Hiya Liz,

Such a "threat" came ONLY after YOU had claimed you had your alleged spouse run an NCIC check on me..
As for his work history.... Michale used to claim he was in law enforcement for almost 25 years...but the truth is that IF he was ever in was a LEO, it was maybe for 2.5 years when he was a MP in the military. And based on the background check that was run on him, if he ever was a LEO it is unlikely that he could have been one for long given his record.
Can anyone find where it says I had Devon run Michael Worley through NCIC? NOPE!
Can anyone find where it says that I, personally, ran a background check on Michael Worley? NOPE! I said based on the info from one that was run on him... but never said that info originated with me.
Michael, it appears that this has all been about me setting up residence in that big empty skull of yours. I didn't have to do anything and just look at you screaming and foaming at the mouth over the things that you made yourself believe that I have done!!!
YOU MADE IT ALL UP AND THEN YOU SWALLOWED IT ALL YOURSELF! How f'd up of a mind do you have?? When you constantly are telling lies, this is what happens when you forget which ones you told and why you told them.
But bless his heart, he sure has gotten his lying ass' blood pressure up going crazy in response to his inability to comprehend what he read... name calling like a spoiled 12yo little girl.
Give me the Department your supposed spouse works for and his badge number... If it is as you say and I am filing a false police report, your alleged spouse has absolutely NOTHING to worry about and *I* will be the one in trouble..
WHO WOULD BE STUPID ENOUGH TO PUT THAT KIND OF INFORMATION ON A WEBSITE FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO HAVE ACCESS TO IT??? Oh wait... whoops... YOU would be that stupid! No, I told you to contact WA State Patrol if you want to see if your name was searched and by whom.
I believe that there have been a few people over the years on this site that have gone to the trouble of running the name and personal information that you so brilliantly posted to this site. A troll stupid enough to tell the world who he is really should not be surprised when people use that info to expose him.
So you were not law enforcement in FL, but in another state? Really? Then why did you claim to have graduated from the DeVry Mall Cop academy in FL? Seeing how state's require you graduate from THEIR police academy to be granted police powers for that state, DART doesn't cut it and it would not make you qualified in any other state either.
Notice I didn't claim to have contacted FDLE myself. I just asked you why a public disclosure request to them for any record showing someone with your name would come back with zero files. Would it be because you lied about being in law enforcement? Apparently, it would. Once again, your lack of reading comprehension comes back to bite you in your lying fat ass!
I love that you are trying so hard to convince yourself that my proving you have lied to everyone here somehow makes me the bad guy! Michael, you lie all the time. I have just allowed you to lie yourself into a corner and then exposed you for the dishonest little troll -- who cannot satisfy his wife sexually -- that you are.
This has been a real treat... watching you ranting, raving and running around like a chicken with it's head cut off. You even decided to make a big deal attacking a gay movie in our honor. Bless your heart! Even with the free room and board included in taking up residence in your mind... it's a nasty hole that needs to be demolished. Try not to be too hard on yourself... you were always WAY out of your league!
Can anyone find where it says that I, personally, ran a background check on Michael Worley? NOPE! I said based on the info from one that was run on him... but never said that info originated with me.
AHHHH So NOW, the story is SOMEONE ELSE ran the NCIC background check..
BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Shit Husband Russ.. Yer digging deeper and deeper.. :D
So, why didn't you say any of this at the time??
No, Shit Husband Russ..
One of two possibilities exist..
You cajoled your alleged spouse into running an NCIC check on me, which is a FELONY..
Or
You made everything up...
The fact that you refuse to offer the PROOF of your claims is proof that the latter is a good possibility..
Then why did you claim to have graduated from the DeVry Mall Cop academy in FL?
Once again, Shit Husband Russ just makes stuff up.. NEVER a fact to support ANY of his claims...
Here are the FACTS, Shit Husband Russ..
You have absolutely ZERO FACTS to even SUPPORT **ANY** of your claims..
Whereas MY Military and LEO bona fides have been established... By your OWN buddy MC, even!!
I love to see you wallow in your BS and dig yourself into a deeper and deeper hole..
What kind of sick psychotic asshole takes a Flame War into real life??
Russ The Shitty Husband, that's what kind of sick psychotic asshole...
Any respectable forum would have BANNED your sick ass already...
Shit Husband Russ..
This has been a real treat... watching you ranting, raving and running around like a chicken with it's head cut off.
Speaking of hysterical ranting and raving..
I have over a hundred comments ALL with varying subject matter to spur debate..
You have 2 or 3 comments and ALL they are are lame bullshit excuses and lies...
It's obvious to EVERY Weigantian® who the hysterical one is here.. :D
Hay Bash..
Nike co-founder Phil Knight declares war on Democrats in Oregon
Knight has invested millions into Democrat Tina Kotek's opponents, and polls show a Republican lead
Nike co-founder Phil Knight says he will do anything to block Democrats from keeping their hold on Oregon's gubernatorial seat Saturday.
Knight, 84, has poured cash into the campaigns of Democrat Tina Kotek's opponents in the governors race. He helped to kickstart a campaign from Betsy Johnson, a former Democrat running as an independent, who is serving as a major spoiler for Kotek.
Johnson's candidacy is giving Republican Christinze Drazan the opportunity she needs in a liberal electorate no longer confident in the state's recent far-left policies.

Looks like Oregon is going red!!
:D
Maybe they can clean up that 3rd world cesspool shithole that is Portland, eh? :D
"One of the political cartoons after our legislative session had a person snorting cocaine out of a mountain of white. It said, ‘Which of these is illegal in Oregon?’ And the answer was the plastic straw."
-Phil Knight
THAT says it all about the 3rd world shithole that is Oregon...
They NEED the GOP to go in there and clean things up...
NYC brazen daylight $17K robbery caught on camera as 66-year-old victim beaten, dragged across pavement
NYPD seeking info on attacker, getaway driver in Queens robbery of 66-year-old man
Shocking footage shows the recent daylight robbery of a 66-year-old man beaten and dragged down a New York City street last week before thieves allegedly made off with a whopping $17,000 in cash.
The New York City Police Department (NYPD) on Saturday released video of the incident that unfolded on Oct. 13 at approximately 1:20 p.m. within the confines of the 104th Precinct.
In it, the 66-year-old victim is seen lying on the pavement, tightly clutching onto an item the suspect is pulling for.

Can't WAIT til the GOP throws them out of office... :D
DC tent cities stain the nation’s capital
The marble monuments of the nation’s capital have become neighbors to abject squalor — ever-expanding tent cities that are the most disgraceful examples of a trend bedeviling Democrat-led cities around the US.
In the past two years, homeless encampments have exploded in Washington D.C., as both the city and federal governments lifted enforcement measures during the COVID-19 pandemic — and made it a no-brainer for itinerants to lay down roots by providing for their every need.
A tour by The Post of the district’s major tourist areas this week found at least 35 vagrants in residence at a National Park Service site two blocks from the White House; more than 20 in the green spaces surrounding the State Department complex; and five across the street from the infamous Watergate Hotel.
https://nypost.com/2022/10/15/dc-tent-cities-stain-the-nations-capital/
And ANOTHER perfect example of Democrat run cesspools... er.. cities.. :eyeroll:
The Democrat Party is the worst thing that could happen to this great country...
https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/10/homeless-mcpherson-square-1-copy.jpg?quality=75&strip=all
The Nation's Capital under Democrat governance.. :^/
“Democrat-run cities are being driven into the ground and Washington, DC is no different. Our nation’s capital is one of our main tourist attractions and it’s become embarrassing … but no one from the Mayor to the President seems to care.”
That describes the Democrat Party PERFECTLY...
"Embarrassing"... :^/
And from a Left Wing rag...
Did Saudi Arabia Just Hand the Midterms to the GOP?
Earlier this month, the world’s largest oil producing countries agreed to significant cuts in production as a means of keeping oil prices high as the global economy faces a potential recession in the coming year. The group known as OPEC+, which includes both the OPEC countries and several other petroleum producers not formally in the global oil cartel, said they would cut production quotas by 2 million barrels per day starting in November. The decision, led by top oil exporter Saudi Arabia along with other Gulf countries, was also seen as a slap in the face to President Joe Biden, whose administration had been frantically lobbying the Saudis and other Gulf allies to maintain or increase output and allow prices to continue to fall.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/did-saudi-arabia-just-hand-the-midterms-to-the-gop/ar-AA131maV?ocid=a2hs
Sure looks that way!!! :D
Demonrats... Demonrats... Demonrats...
Demonrats had the chance.. Demonrats had ALL the levers of political power..
And they royally frak'ed up this country...
What happened to your Demonrats, Weigantians®...
I thought ya'all said they were sooo good....
Apparently ya'all were... WRONG... :D
The insult to Biden came just a few months after the president visited Saudi Arabia and exchanged an infamous fist bump with crown prince (and newly appointed prime minister) Mohammed bin Salman. That gesture of friendship with a brutal tyrant was readily interpreted as a nasty bit of realpolitik, with Biden bowing to the fact that he needed Saudi Arabia to keep the oil flowing to keep both inflation and Russia in check. On that visit, Biden secured an understanding from Saudi Arabia and its junior partner, the UAE, to increase production by a total of about 1.25 million barrels per day. The Saudis did ramp up production during the summer, when oil was over $120 a barrel, but backed off as prices began to fall again.
The Saudis stuck it to Creepy Dementia Biden..
Who knows..
Maybe Biden tried to sniff the Prince's hair...
:eyeroll:
Nonetheless, lawmakers in Washington, particularly Democrats, see this latest insult as a sign that Saudi Arabia is an unreliable ally, straying from the U.S. orbit and cozying up to its fellow authoritarian states such as Russia and China. Both the Biden administration and congressional leaders are looking at ways to punish Riyadh for its perfidy. New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, on Monday called for a freeze on all cooperation with Saudi Arabia, including arms sales, “until the kingdom reassesses its position with respect to the war in Ukraine.”
Only "unreliable" when Demonrats are running things..
Saudi is doing what is best for this country..
Removing Demonrats from power...
A savvy operator like Prince Mohammed is surely aware of the political consequences of all his actions, including in the U.S. Whether or not it was his primary motive for cajoling his fellow OPEC leaders into cutting production, he was surely not ignorant of the impact that move might have on the midterms. The Saudi government says the Biden administration asked it to delay the move by a month until after the elections, which is true, is embarrassing for the U.S. Like his buddy Trump, the Saudi crown prince is a practitioner of the politics of domination and humiliation, and in a certain light, the past few months have been an object lesson in that: Biden went to Riyadh hat in hand in July to beg a dictator he once called a “pariah” to keep the oil flowing. He failed to secure a commitment, the Saudis turned their backs on him a few months later, he was reduced to begging again, and they screwed him over anyway.
So Creepy Dementia Biden tried to cajole the Saudis to influence the election..
Something that moron Demonrats impeached President Trump over...
Hypocrisy.. It's not a bug in Demonrat programming. It's a feature...
Back to Demonrat's horrible DEFUND, DEMONIZE, DEMORALIZE THE POLICE policies..
The Democrats’ Willie Horton Problem (continued)
The second part of a two-part series by Diana Allocco on the Willie Horton case and how Democrats have forgotten the vital lessons from the unfortunate incidents.
Lee Atwater, George Bush Sr.’s 1988 campaign manager, is typically blamed for the “racist Willie Horton” campaign tactic, but the truth is, the Republican campaign followed the public emotion, and did not lead it. Atwater himself admitted the anti-crime-coddling intensity emerged via groundswell from the grassroots: “I have never seen an issue take on a life of its own like this issue.” Despite the media history revisionism (and Atwater’s subsequent apology), it was not directed by the Republicans from the jump.
https://tippinsights.com/the-democrats-willie-horton-problem-2/
As usual, Demonrats tried to play the race card.. But epically FAILED because racism was no where near ANY kind of factor...
It was simply good politics and Demonrats ongoing love affair with coddling criminals and hating on cops..
History repeats itself in the upcoming mid-terms.. :D
Democrats Revert. With Democrats’ reclaiming full national power in 2020 and capitalizing on their control of big cities — and forgetting the harsh political lessons they were taught by outraged voters over a generation ago — Democrats have eagerly returned to their criminal-coddling roots. True to form, they are letting felons out of prison. Proudly. And everywhere they rule.
They have implemented their favorite leftist soft-on-crime policies, like non-prosecution of offenses. They have commuted sentences. They have eliminated cash bail. They have saved their harshest rhetoric and punitive policies for police. To put it succinctly, Democrats have, in places they run, basically decriminalized crime.
And we see the result: public fear. To the left, that’s simply due to racist Republicans whipping up false emotion by manipulating voters’ “lizard brain” ignorance. But here’s the real reason people are afraid: criminals, unrestrained by conscience or law, have been set free to hurt them. (Just google “random attack” for dismaying examples.)
Demonrats failed to learn the lessons of history..
And NOW it's coming back to rip the ass off of the Demonrat Party.. :D
Could happen to a more deserving klan of Anti-America lusers.. :D
Ya like that?? I referred to Demonrats as a 'klan' because it was Demonrats who CREATED the Ku Klux Klan... :D
Pretty good, eh?? :D
Looks like Shit Husband Russ ran away... AGAIN.. :D
BBBWWHHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
In 1988, Democrats had a “Willie Horton problem.” Their problem was: Willie Horton. In other words, the Democrats’ problem was the facts of the case, the truth of what actually happened in the real world — the horror — as a direct result of Democrat policies.
In 2022, the Democrats’ problem is the same as before, the predators they let out to prey on the innocent. But now, the Democrats have moved on and moved up. Their criminals aren’t rewarded with a mere weekend furlough — these days they get a forever furlough. These criminals own the streets — and virtually imprison the rest of us.
The results are utterly predictable. As is the voter response, coming November 8.
Winter's coming, Demonrats... Are ya ready??? :D
And now... Sad and shocking though it may be..
I am forced to concede that Odumbo is actually factually accurate about something..
I know, I know.. I didn't believe it either.. But the facts are clear..
Obama is right: Democrats' anti-Trump fixation is killing them
Former President Barack Obama recently pointed out that Democrats are shooting themselves in the foot with their obsession with Donald Trump and the various legal questions surrounding him. They have deluded themselves, as a party, into believing that the rest of the world is as obsessed as they are with Trump, whatever legal battles he faces, and the Jan. 6 committee. In reality, nobody cares about any of this stuff. At all.
Most people don't even know what's happening in that committee. And they certainly don't care about the lawsuits being filed in New York.
"We spend enormous amounts of time and energy and resources pointing out the latest crazy thing he said, or how rude or mean some of the Republican candidates behaved," Obama said on a recent podcast. "That's probably not something that, in the minds of most voters, overrides their basic interests: Can I pay the rent? What are gas prices? How am I dealing with child care?"
Obama is completely right. If Democrats don't listen to him, they are going to be slaughtered in the coming midterm elections.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/obama-is-right-democrats-anti-trump-fixation-is-killing-them
I guess even an old busted up watch like Odumbo can be factually accurate twice a day.. :^/
Demonrats were SOOOO sure of themselves when there militant wing, BLM and AntiFa were tearing apart major cities...
Demonrats encouraged and supported anti-America and the Demonrat's HATE COPS agenda...
Now look where Demonrats are??
BLM has been completely and utterly exposed as the anti-Black con that it was...
And Demonrats in the upcoming mid-terms???
"Toast... toast... TOAST... TOAST"
-Tom Cruise, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE
The Demonrat Party is the Hate Cops Party.. And everyone who supports the Demonrats also hate cops..
It simply cannot be any other way...
So, what ya'all think??
We can hit 150!!??? :D
Sigh.
THAT'S the spirit!!!! :D
Here, Liz.. I'll feed you a straight line..
"Hay Liz!! Are you here to help me out!!??"
One last note for you....and it's kinda important... NCIC does NOT give criminal history when officers run a name through it... it only gives active wants and warrants and protection order info. So unless you had active warrants for your arrest, the info I would have learned was that you came back clear. Anyone with minimal experience in law enforcement knows this. I've let you continue to spew as many wrong statements regarding your police expertise and background as I can put up with. This will hopefully demonstrate once and for all that you know nothing about policing.
Unless you are actively wanted or have unprocessed warrants out on you... or you are the subject of a protection order... you won't show up in NCIC when an officer runs your name! To obtain your actual criminal history officers have to fill out a completely different form giving reasons for the request as well as the active case number for the case that requires the info they are seeking.
The general public thinks that anytime an officer runs their name that their criminal history pops up... it doesn't and your comments on here once again prove you to be a liar. You just don't know when to shut your mouth! I've played along just because I figured you wouldn't be able to help yourself from doubling down and tripling down on your lies... and I know you not used to hearing this -- especially from your wife -- but you DID NOT DISAPPOINT! You keep piling lie upon lie trying to prove you are right and it keeps getting worse and worse for ya!
I find it hilarious because you did not even think of claiming that you were filing a real complaint until two days ago. You started going off about running you through NCIC even though I never made any such claim because I knew it wouldn't return your criminal history. So again, I let you make a fool of yourself.
Give up. Admit defeat and that you lied about your law enforcement experience and stop with the childish nick names... it's pathetic even for you. Oh, and apologize to my husband for threatening to file a false police report against him for everyone to see. You chose to go after my husband and wanted to damage his career as a police officer. It's bad enough you steal the valor of those that serve in law enforcement, but to actively threaten to file a false complaint is just too much. Do these things and I'll drop the subject. IF not, I'll continue to repost how you proved to us all that you don't know anything about law enforcement. You have made a FOOL of yourself and should be ashamed.
Do ya'all wanna know how BAD it is that Demonrats are not listening to Odumbo??
"Yes Michale.. Please tell us.. How bad is it!??"
Well, I am glad you asked, Weigantia®
Perhaps the most amazing illustration of this is the recent poll showing that New York Attorney General Letitia James could actually lose her reelection battle — mostly because of this exact problem. She is completely out of touch with New Yorkers and completely Trump-obsessed in her work. James has essentially neglected her job of prosecuting the criminals preying upon New Yorkers in order to obsess over Trump and build up her profile with blue-checkmark Twitter. The last poll of her race shows her losing against a no-name opponent.
That doesn't mean she will actually lose, but she is losing, even though she should not be anywhere close to losing. And politicians who are as out of touch with the needs of their constituents as she is deserve to lose.
This is where the Democratic Party finds itself now. The party's activist base is obsessed with Trump to the point of insanity. They cannot give him up, two years after he left office. We hear all this talk of election denialism — it is almost as if they cannot accept that they won the 2020 election.
Cops/Trump/America hater Letitta James is likely to LOSE her coming election.. IN NEW YORK of all places!!!
THAT is exactly how BAD it is for Demonrats and their Cops/Trump/America hate agenda...
Letitty James will LOSE to ANYONE... THAT'S how bad it is.. Letousche James would lose to ANY OTHER opponent...
See!?? Aren't ya'all glad ya'all have ME around to keep ya'all informed!?? :D
Of course ya'all are..
Naww, don't thank me..
It's fine.. I don't mind at all!! :D
Shit Husband Russ..
STILL hysterical, eh???
And your IGNORANCE on NCIC is astounding...
I shouldn't be surprised.. You didn't even know what constitutes ASSAULT until I told you..
You think, just because Military Officers are "Commissioned" you figured POLICE Officers were ALSO "Commissioned"..
BBBBWWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHA
Police Officers are SWORN, not COMMISSIONED you ignorant shithead...
You know absolutely NOTHING about LEOs and what they are and do... You even thought that retired LEOs are nothing but civilians with no consideration at all from SWORN officers..
Your ignorance is LAUGHABLE...
Hay.. Weren't you going to tell us the story of how you were a 911 operator who got fired because you wouldn't do something racist your supervisor wanted you to do???
BBBWWHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Face reality, Shit Husband Russ..
I PWN YOU!!!
:D
Obama was obviously off-base when he argued that Democrats could rally around the success of the Biden agenda. "The Biden administration has accomplished a lot," he said. "You've got a historic infrastructure bill that's going to help rebuild America and create jobs all across the country. You've got an inflation control act that is lowered prescription drug prices, has made sure that health care is even more affordable through the ACA, that is looking at lowering energy costs."
Biden's legislative agenda is a joke. It has not reduced inflation, and no one labors under delusions that it has. The new inflation numbers prove how badly he has failed.
Still, Obama was at least right about one thing. Democrats' obsession with Trump is distracting their party from reality. The fatal effects on their election prospects could end up becoming the feel-good story of 2022.
Yes.. As much as it pains me to say.. Odumbo was RIGHT about how Demonrats are going down..
Oh, yea... And Odumbo was ALSO dead on ballz accurate when he said, "Never underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up."
Normally I don't like to use the expletive, but it's a DIRECT QUOTE and direct quotes have always been permissible here in Weigantia®...
:D
Hay JL...
Dunno if ya missed the email about the Quantum Leap Episodes...
Please advise when you have watched them I am DYING to discuss it with ya!! :D
And 150 it is!!!! :D
WOOT!!!!!
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
-July 4th 1776
VERY interesting...
That could very well describe the Demonrat Party for the last 2 years..
The American Constitution is devoted to securing citizens’ inalienable rights and premised on the sober recognition that folly, self-seeking, and injustice are creative and ever-present menaces. Even amid gross abuses of power, shameless policy promiscuity, and the widespread politicization of education, Americans continue to enjoy greater freedom than citizens at most any other time and in most any other place. Therefore, reforming rather than overthrowing American government is not only prudent but also required by the nation’s founding principles.
And again.. Very interesting...
Gross abuses of power..
Demonrats.. CHECK
Shameless policy promiscuity..
Demonrats.. CHECK
Widespread politicization of Education..
Demonrats.. DEFINITE CHECK
Yep... Looks like it's time to "reform" the Demonrats RIGHT out of office!! :D
The logic is IMPECCABLE...
The attempt to frame a presidential candidate as a Russian collaborator, the attempt to overthrow a president using similar illegal and shady tactics, and finally the attempt by our own government to smear and delegitimize the next GOP presidential candidate are beyond anything I would have believed not so long ago.
Although a revolution would be disastrous, and I'm not in favor of it, just witnessing these events is beyond anything I would have believed.
Furthermore, unelected government bureaucrats have done and continue to attempt all of these criminal operations. Elections therefore have no impact, if they are fair.
What options does that leave us with? It's a decision that a dishonest and out-of-control government would make for us.
Let's take stock of what Demonrats are all about..
Demonrats own the violent crime wave.... CHECK
Demonrats own the open border.... CHECK
Demonrats own fentanyl overdoses.... CHECK
Demonrats own ruinous inflation.... CHECK
Demonrats own a transgender and racist blitzkrieg at schoolchildren.... CHECK
Demonrats own 22+ years of Demonrat BLM and AntiFa riots where DOZENS of cops were killed.... CHECK
Demonrats own DEFUND DEMONIZE DEMORALIZE THE POLICE that has turned American cities into 3rd shithole warzones... CHECK
Demonrats own foreign policy disasters including the wholesale capitulation in Afghanistan.... CHECK
Demonrats own that 13 brave American Troops were brutally butchered by the VERY Scumbags that Creepy Dementia Biden had released from custody just days earlier.... CHECK
Demonrats own that over 88 BILLION dollars in top of the line military equipment was given to terrorist groups throughout the Middle East..... CHECK
Demonrats own the political weaponization of the FBI and Justice Department against everyday Americans whose SOLE "crime" is that they love their country... CHECK
Given ALL of the above FACTS....
One has to wonder how ANYONE can vote Demonrat..
Oh let's not forget..
Why Biden officially owns the inflation disaster
By Brad Polumbo October 16, 2022 06:00 AM
President Joe Biden has attempted to blame various scapegoats, from Russian President Vladimir Putin to big corporations, for the nation's inflation woes. But thanks to the latest data and his own promises, the president officially owns the inflation disaster.
We just got yet more alarming metrics from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, showing inflation rising 8.2% from September 2021 to September 2022 — with double-digit increases in key goods from food to energy and beyond. This is the last inflation update we will receive before the November midterm elections, dealing a death blow to whatever hope Democrats had that inflation would ease before voters head to the polls. Remember when it was "transitory?"
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/community-family/why-biden-officially-owns-the-inflation-disaster
Demonrats OWN runaway inflation that hasn't been this high since the WORST American President (til now) Jimmy Carter..
Demonrats are going to be PWND in 23 days!! :D
OK Gonna get some dinner with my lovely wife and watch a movie..
I'll be back later to help Liz kick off the Weigantian® Music Fest.. :D
What's our theme tonight, Liz??
How about American and Canadian Patriotic Songs??
I have got some good ones.. :D
Til then.. :D
“ACCORDINGLY, BY EXECUTIVE order of the President, your government is taking the following actions:
“One, until further notice, all schools and colleges in the country will be closed.
“Two, all businesses except for those providing essential services—the media, health care, food, law-enforcement, and fire protection—will also be closed until further notice.
“Three, all places of public assembly, theaters, restaurants, bars and the like, will be closed.
“Fourth, all interstate travel is suspended until further notice. This means all commercial air travel, interstate trains and buses, and private-passenger automobiles. Trucks carrying foodstuffs will be allowed to travel under military escort. The same is true of essential supplies, pharmaceuticals and the like.
“Fifth, I have activated the National Guard in all the fifty states and placed it under federal control to maintain public order. A state of martial law is now in force throughout the country.

Awesome music, Liz.. :D
Sorry I couldn't make it.. Let's just say I got a better offer. :D
This comments section, more than most even, has depressed me.
I understand.. The Leftist media and the phony Democrat rising polls had ya fooled..
And then I come along and show you the FACTs that the GOP Red Tsunami is still very much alive..
For those who support Democrats, I can understand while it would be depressing..
But look at the bright side..
At least yer not going to be gabberflasted when the GOP takes the House and Senate by a wide margin.. :D
I perform a valuable service here, I am sure you would agree... :D
And Demonrat hypocrisy is full on display this fine and awesome morning...
Media blast DeSantis easing voter rules in areas hit hardest by Hurricane Ian because they are more Republican
Gov. Ron DeSantis expanded early voting access for counties most affected by Hurricane Ian
Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., was accused by several media outlets of politicizing voter access after he eased restrictions in the counties most heavily affected by Hurricane Ian on Thursday.
DeSantis signed an emergency executive order that expanded mail-in ballot access and early voting availability to counties that were heavily damaged by the Category 4 hurricane. According to the order, the decision primarily focused on Charlotte, Lee and Sarasota Counties after "collective feedback of the Supervisors of Elections across the state" and "at the written requests" of these counties’ election supervisors.
Although the order is set to assist tens of thousands of displaced citizens in these counties, some attacked the voter assistance by suggesting that it is politically motivated for the midterm elections.
https://www.foxnews.com/media/media-blast-desantis-easing-voter-rules-areas-hit-hardest-hurricane-ian-republican
Demonrats are ALL ABOUT expanding availability and accessibility for voters...
UNLESS
Unless it's availability and accessibility for REPUBLICAN voters.. :^/
In THAT case, Demonrats are ALL ABOUT curtailing availability and accessibility for voters.. :eyeroll:
Can ANYONE here explain or justify this BLATANT hypocrisy and dis-enfranchising of GOP voters??
Anyone??? Anyone??? Beuhler??
{{ccchhhiiirrrrrppppp}} {{ccchhhhiiiiiirrrrpppppp}}Yea... That's what I thought.
Hypocrisy.. It's not a bug in Democrat programming. It's a feature..
:eyeroll:
And for MORE Demonrat moron'ticity.. :^/
Shortly after the announcement, Washington Post reporter Lori Rozsa wrote that the three counties in question are overwhelmingly Republican as opposed to other damaged countries outside the order.
Those were the counties that had the MOST damage, you ignorant partisan dolt!!
The Demonrat areas received much lighter damage..
:eyeroll:
And now let's travel to PA where Mrs Fettterman is valiantly trying (but failing) to win the Senate seat..
John Fetterman’s health sparks contentious debate in final stretch
WALLINGFORD, Pa. — A few minutes into his rally, John Fetterman told the crowd he wanted to address the “elephant in the room.”
“I had a stroke, you all know that,” the Democratic Senate nominee said here Saturday. “I gotta give a loco — excuse me — local shout out to Penn Medicine for saving my life.”
Fetterman, 53, explained that sometimes he stumbles over his words and has “auditory processing” issues.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/john-fetterman-e2-80-99s-health-sparks-contentious-debate-in-final-stretch/ar-AA131JAp
In other words, Fetterman is disabled.. And it's a disability that DISQUALIFIES him from running for the Senate..
What's he going to do?? Have subtitles in the Senate??
I mean, it's not going to matter much..
Pennsylvania's voters are leaving the Democrat Party by the millions..
Doc Oz will be the next Senator from PA..
And now, for the question of the day...
What The Hell Is Wrong With Democrats?
They say for a drunk to finally seek the help they have to hit bottom first. What happens when there is no bottom? For the left, there is no bottom. Every time it seems like they hit it, someone breaks out jackhammers and goes deeper. There is no bottom for them to hit because the pursuit of their agenda is the overriding feature of their lives, and like a junkie seeking their next hit, nothing is going to stand in their way. Not even common sense or decency when it comes to kids.

Every time it seems like they hit it, someone breaks out jackhammers and goes deeper.
Heh Sounds like our very own Shit Husband Russ, eh?? :D
This is the EXACT problem with Demonrats..
They are SOOO far removed from the positions on the issues of every day Americans...
And Demonrats CONTINUE to dig deeper into their Cop/Trump/America hating hole...
NOW Demonrats are all about grooming young kids to learn about and accept sexuality based mental health issues as the norm..
This is why Demonrats are going to lose and lose BIG in 22 days.. :D
A school district in southern California had planned a “family-friendly” drag show for elementary school kids for Halloween. Why? There is no good reason. It takes a special kind of creep to think the thing missing from a child’s life is adult male genitals in their face as other adults cheer, but that kind of creep thrives on the left.
There is no such thing as “family-friendly” sexualizing of children, nor is there a non-sexual drag show. That’s the point of the “show” part, otherwise, it would just be a dude standing around in dresses. What else are they going to do, give a TED Talk on economics while tucked back further than the bad memories from childhood likely still haunting them?
Exactly.. Nothing about transvestites is "family friendly"...
Absolutely and positively NOTHING...
I mean, if the trans would just stick to making the kids laugh, instead of making the kids uncomfortable, the it would be just a clown show..
But these "clowns" have to sexualize EVERYTHING..
Without the sexualization a Drag Show would be nothing but a Clown show...
But these shows are sexualized to the max...
Why do Demonrats want to expose sexual activities to young children???
Easy.. Because the Demonrat Party is the Grooming Party..
Not to be too cynical, but now that having a “trans” kid is this year’s virtue signal winner for progressive chardonnay clubs' “coolest thing to have to happen,” that confusion is the currency on the left. And speaking of currency, there’s a lot of money in the butchering of children’s bodies, slicing off body parts isn’t cheap. But before this trend, there wasn’t a lot of business. Thanks to Democrats and the Alphabet Mafia, it’s becoming a volume business too. There’s a reason the Halloween Drag Show in San Diego was sponsored by a child-butchering “gender” clinic more than 500 miles away in San Francisco and it wasn’t a concern for kids.
Yep.. For kids, trans are the new WOBs.. Kids pretend their aliens just to get attention..
The only difference is NOW they have "parents" who are so thrilled that they (parents) can virtue-signal, parents are actually condoning and even ENCOUURAGING mutilating their kids with dangerous experimental surgeries and drugs..
"Parents" like that should be locked up for gross and perverse child abuse.
Since everyone complains about my links and such that relay the facts, I am going to try something new..
I am going to paraphrase articles that I read and deliver them without any corresponding bold or links..
Let's start this new format by talking about Fetterman and Demonrats and their refusal to participate in a debates...
Candidates refusing to engage in debates during this election season is a risky tendency in politics in this era of hyper-partisanship and polarization.
These applicants believe they will be hired without having to interview. their reasoning?
The events' sponsor groups are "partisan"..
Now President Trump's debates WERE too partisan and it was only logical and rational that President Trump wanted to forgo the Demonrat lynching disguised as a "debate"..
As an aside, Demonrats are STILL into lynchings, just like their KKK ancestors..
Anyways, some politicians use this repetitive justification to duck difficult inquiries and deal with subjects that might be politically contentious. Every debate has to have candidates go on the record on issues and viewpoints in order to educate voters.
But Demonrats don't WANT to go on the record because Demonrats KNOW that the American people will see Demonrats for what they are..
Cop hating, America hating morons..
So, Demonrats skip debates..
Demonrats are AFRAID to debate...
Of course, such refusal to put their ideas and positions on the record is not only a disservice to American citizens when politicians decline to participate in open debates in nonpartisan forums, but it also exposes another vulnerability in our democracy.
American democracy has a heritage of open debate. They are crucial to a free and fair election.
Voters must have the chance to speak with candidates directly. Debates and forums create a distinctive venue for open interaction and conversation, suited to the needs of the community and the subjects they care about, in local contests with minimal budgets and limited media coverage.
No where was this more illustrated than the 2020 election where Creepy Dementia Biden campaigned hiding in his basement...
Had 2020 been a FAIR election, an election where Demonrats COULDN'T hide their candidate away from voter scrutiny??
Well, President Trump (AND America) would be enjoying President Trump's 2nd term...
But, as I like to say. "OOhh well..." It's time to look to the future and watch President Trump handily trounce the Demonrats' 2024 candidate...
I truly hope it is a re-match of President Trump and Creepy Dementia Biden...
Then we can all see how the 2020 election SHOULD have gone without Demonrat fraud and Demonrat cheating and Demonrat hiding Creepy Dementia Biden from public/voter view...
Well, I think that went pretty well.. :D
Let me know yer thoughts, Liz and JL... I value ya'all's input..
I may not always follow ya'all's input.. :D
But I ALWAYS listen to it and I ALWAYS value it...
And now from the ONLY *OFFICIAL* Weigantian® news source that is unbiased and objective??
Congressional Generic Vote
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/2022-generic-congressional-vote-7361.html
Doesn't look good for the Demonrat team, eh? :D
JL, you wear a MEDIUM T-Shirt?? :D
JL, yer gonna like this one..
So, there is this teacher in California, teaching PRE SCHOOL... Get that?? PRE-SCHOOL...
Of course being California, the Pre-school chain is all about WOKE crap like gender bending and sexualizing toddlers..
So, this teacher (who is quite religious) refused to read a book to the toddlers about gender-bending and LGBQ+ABCXYZEIEIO crap..
She was fired because she refused to sexualize and groom toddlers for later use by Demonrats...
What say you???
This Demonrat works in the PENTAGON fer christ's sake!!
She is pushing books by that racist, Ta-Nehisi Coates...
Here is a passage from one of those books that this Pentagon WOKE 'experts' is pushing...
"They were not human to me. Black, white, or whatever, they were menaces of nature; they were the fire, the comet, the storm, which could — with no justification — shatter my body."
And THAT right there is why Demonrats are going to lose in 22 days...
Their cop hating, America hating woke policies...
I have said it before and I'll say it again..
There is simply NO WAY on this earth that people who support Demonrats can support LEOs as well..
One kind of support is diametrically opposite of the other kind of support..
If ya support Demonrats, you simply CAN'T support LEOs..
It would be like someone who says they support the Demonrat KKK but ALSO support Affirmative Action...
It's simply impossible that BOTH claims of support be factually accurate claims..
You support Demonrats...
Or you support LEOs...
Which is it, people?? Because it sure as hell can't be both...
The FACTS and REALITY simply will not allow it..
However, I would first like to make a special dedication to our Kick. She, indubitbubbly, knows all about this treat but here's a tune just for her ... enjoy, Kick!
Sorry (not sorry :D) to inform you that Vick ran away..
She got caught in a huge lie and she ran away in embarrassment...
Doubt we will see her anytime soon...
OK Let's move over to Arkansas...
The nation’s first trial over a state’s ban on gender-confirming care for children begins in Arkansas this week, the latest fight over restrictions on transgender youth championed by Republican leaders and widely condemned by medical experts.
U.S. District Judge Jay Moody will hear testimony and evidence starting Monday over the law he temporarily blocked last year prohibiting doctors from providing gender-confirming hormone treatment, puberty blockers or surgery to anyone under 18 years old. It also prevents doctors from referring patients elsewhere for such care.
The families of four transgender youth and two doctors who provide gender-confirming care want Moody to strike down the law, saying it is unconstitutional because it discriminates against transgender youth, intrudes on parents’ rights to make medical decisions for their children and infringes on doctors’ free speech rights. The trial is expected to last two weeks.
https://apnews.com/article/health-arkansas-e56522c378fee681f155eb775566ea39
This law is a good law.. Children must be protected even if it means protecting them from their own woke virtue-signaling parents.
I am hoping they stream the trial live.. I would really like to watch that..
“As a parent, I never imagined I’d have to fight for my daughter to be able to receive medically necessary health care her doctor says she needs and we know she needs,” said Lacey Jennen, whose 17-year-old daughter has been receiving gender-confirming care.
Except the gender-bending and body mutilation surgery is NOT medically necessary...
Children are not old enough to "confirm" their gender...
There is a reason we don't let children make life-altering decisions..
If your daughter was so emotionally disturbed and depressed because she KNOWS she can fly, would you let your daughter jump off a cliff??
Well, if there was some ideological or virtue signaling advantage to it, YOU probably would..
But no normal parent who actually LOVES their children more than their ideological status would NEVER consider letting their children jump off a cliff because she identifies as being a bird..
So it is with Gender Dysphoria.... It's a MENTAL HEALTH issue.. Pure and simple...
What your daughter needs is MENTAL Health help...
NOT body mutilation help..
This is what the REAL and ACTUAL science says...
Arkansas was the first state to enact such a ban on gender-confirming care, with Republican lawmakers in 2021 overriding GOP Gov. Asa Hutchinson’s veto of the legislation. Hutchinson, who had signed other restrictions on transgender youth into law, said the prohibition went too far by cutting off the care for those currently receiving it.
Not factually accurate...
The law, as I read it, actually encourages care for these confused children...
It simply prevents EXPERIMENTAL care that is PROVEN to harm children...
The law encourages woke parents and doctors to provide the RIGHT kind of care for their children rather than ideological-based care....
But advocates of the law have argued the prohibition is within the state’s authority to regulate medical practices.
“This is about protecting children,” Republican Attorney General Leslie Rutledge said. “Nothing about this law prohibits someone after the age of 18 from making this decision. What we’re doing in Arkansas is protecting children from life-altering, permanent decisions.”
EXACTLY...
There is a reason why you have to be 21 to drink.. There is a reason why you have to be 21 to smoke..
Because the decision to start drinking or start smoking is a LIFE-ALTERING decision that will likely have adverse effects later in the children's lives...
And children are not mature enough to make an informed decision of the magnitude of mutilating their bodies with experimental surgeries and drugs...
It's obvious that ya'all agree with that, as no one has ever challenged the facts....
There is a reason why you have to be 21 to drink.. There is a reason why you have to be 21 to smoke..
And any parent who allows their children to drink and smoke are PROSECUTED for child abuse and child endangerment...
So it should be with experimental mutilating surgeries and drugs...
The logic is impeccable and the position is unassailable..
Just for those who can't handle big words (Racist MC, Shit Husband Russ, Moron Vick) that means that facts are unable to be attacked, questioned, or defeated.
And, now for the Demonrats are economically killing Americans segment..
Average American is losing $34K and everything else on Biden’s watch
Have you taken a peek at the balance in your 401(k) retirement accounts lately? Here’s our advice: Don’t bother. It will ruin your whole day, week and month.
Here’s why: We’ve now had seven straight months of 8%+ inflation. A year ago we were assured by the White House economic wizards that these rapid price increases in everything from groceries, to rental cars, to gasoline at the pump, to health insurance were merely “transitory.” Whoops.
The most immediate sticker shock from Bidenflation, of course, has been to shrink real take-home paychecks of workers. We have calculated that over the past 20 months, this rise in consumer prices over wages means that the average family in America has lost nearly $6,000 in purchasing power. This from the Lunch Bucket Joe president who promised to help boost the incomes of the middle class. When, exactly?
https://nypost.com/2022/10/16/average-american-is-losing-34k-and-everything-else-on-bidens-watch/
This is what Creepy Dementia Biden and the Demoncrats have done to Americans..
It's no wonder the polls predict an Uber Nuclear Biblical Shellacking in just over 3 weeks.. :D
Not surprisingly, since President Biden took office, monthly savings have collapsed, falling 83%. (We could never understand how Biden could say with a straight face that Americans are saving more. His “transformation” of the US economy has had just the opposite effect.) Many millions of Americans who are living paycheck to paycheck just don’t have the money after paying the inflated bills to save much.
But to add insult to injury, even what has been already saved and invested by older Americans over past years and even over several decades has been erased from these accounts.
Thanks to the thief of inflation.
since President Biden took office, monthly savings have collapsed, falling 83%.
EIGHTY-THREE PERCENT FRAKIN' LOSS!!!!
Answer one serious question, ya'all
WHY would ANYONE vote Demonrat???
OK I'll take a break and let ya'all catch up.. :D
"I feel like we’re just wanting to be heard. And I don’t think that there’s necessarily anything wrong [with that]. I don’t think that makes us fragile. I just think we want to be heard."

:eyeroll:
How can ANYTHING this guy says be taken seriously??
Irregardless of that, the problem is he wants to silence everyone who doesn't agree with him in his question to be "heard"....
But the point is he CAN be heard.. He IS being heard..
What he REALLY wants, what all Demonrats want is to FORCE people to hear them... Worse yet, these selfish morons want to FORCE people to accept their twisted ideology as valid..
And let's face reality, people...
ANY guy that looks and dresses like THAT ^^^^ guy above??
Is simply IMPOSSIBLE to take seriously... He's a kook.. Plain and simple...
And let's face reality, people...
ANY guy that looks and dresses like THAT ^^^^ guy above??
Is simply IMPOSSIBLE to take seriously... He's a kook.. Plain and simple...
And for those of ya'all who are gonna hysterically scream "BIGOT!!!!! RACIST!!!!"
Allow me to illustrate my point..
Would you Weigantians® take THIS people seriously if they were talking about not being 'heard'???
https://c8.alamy.com/comp/C5FPRR/robert-sprague-and-his-wife-rawni-at-the-annual-summer-redneck-games-C5FPRR.jpg
Of course ya'all wouldn't... Don't try and con me and say ya'all would listen.. We know ya wouldn't..
You see, Weigantians®??
That's how it works...
An ongoing them for the past year is how former Democrats are leaving the Demonrat Party by the millions..
NOW Democrats have just lost a key constituency...
Female Democrat voters tell NY Times they're shifting to GOP over economic concerns: 'It's all about cost'
Independent voters in battleground states are more aligned with Republicans, according to state polls
Economic concerns and "intense" disapproval of President Biden are giving Republicans an edge with independent voters in the upcoming election, according to recent polling from The New York Times.
A NYT/Siena College poll found independent female voters in particular swung dramatically to the right in the past month, despite Democrats' focus on abortion rights.
"In September, they favored Democrats by 14 points. Now, independent women backed Republicans by 18 points— a striking swing given the polarization of the American electorate and how intensely Democrats have focused on that group and on the threat Republicans pose to abortion rights," the paper reported.
The Times noted that was because the economy was "a far more potent political issue in 2022 than abortion," and a majority of voters trusted Republicans to handle it.
https://www.foxnews.com/media/female-democrat-voters-tell-ny-times-shifting-gop-economic-concerns-all-about-cost
Looks like it's the Demonrat Party that is the Party with a cult of economic failure, eh?? :D
Americans are leaving the Demoncrat Party and trusting the GOP by the 10s of millions.. :D
And keep in mind.. This is the NY GRIME reporting..
Reinforcing this point, the Times talked to Democrat women who were voting Republican this fall. Mortgage loan officer Robin Ackerman, 37, said she was switching because she felt the GOP was "more geared towards business."
Despite strongly disagreeing with the Supreme Court's Dobbs ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, she said it wasn't going to influence her vote.
"But that doesn’t really have a lot to do with my decision… I’m more worried about other things," she told the outlet.
Another Democrat, Gerard Lamoureux, is also looking to the GOP to solve her concerns about rising prices.
"It’s all about cost," the 51-year-old Democratic retiree in Newtown, Conn., told the paper. She added, "The price of gas and groceries are through the roof. And I want to eat healthy, but it’s cheaper for me to go to McDonald’s and get a little meal than it is to cook dinner."
Baby Killing is very VERY low on women's priority list..
These for Democrat women want to be able to feed their families without taking out a 2nd Mortgage...
It's simply an UNDENIABLE FACT that Demonrats have messed up the economy and Americans overwhelmingly believe the GOP is the only ones who can fix it..
End Result??
Uber Nuclear Biblical Shellacking at the mid-terms :D
I have said it before and I'll say it again..
There is simply NO WAY on this earth that people who support Demonrats can support LEOs as well..
One kind of support is diametrically opposite of the other kind of support..
If ya support Demonrats, you simply CAN'T support LEOs..
It would be like someone who says they support the Demonrat KKK but ALSO support Affirmative Action...
It's simply impossible that BOTH claims of support be factually accurate claims..
You support Demonrats...
Or you support LEOs...
Allow me to expand on this..
The Democrat Party is the DEFUND DEMONIZE DEMORALIZE THE POLICE Party...
This is well documented and inarguably factual...
The Democrat Party is ALSO the Pro Criminal Party.. No Bail Party... Coddle Violent Criminals Party..
This is ALSO well documented and inarguably factual..
And, because of the afore mentioned FACTS, cops are being shot and killed at an alarming rate...
Again.. Well documented... FACTUAL... INARGUABLY factual..
So, we have established several facts..
Now, Let's say you have this guy who claims he is married to a cop.. This guy ALSO is a dyed-in-the-wool hysterical Democrat.. One could say he has a SLAVISH support of Democrats and the Democrat Party..
Here's the rub.. If this guy is actually married to a cop, that means he supports the Party that will, as likely as not, get his spouse killed.
And yet, this guy whole-heartedly supports Democrats..
So, given all this info, what can we deduce??
Well, the first obvious deduction is that the guy is lying and he isn't really married to a cop.. That is the most likely scenario here..
Now, secondly, this guy may actually be married to a cop, but obviously doesn't love his spouse very much.. I mean how can this guy claim to love his spouse and yet whole-heartedly support the Party that will, as likely as not, get his spouse killed..
Answer: He can't...
Now some of ya'all might argue, "Well, obviously this guy is not a SINGLE ISSUE guy.. He looks at several different aspects of the Democrat Party and THAT is what explains his slavish and hysterical support of the Democrat Party..."
BBBBBZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Wrong..
When you are married (I know many of ya'all are not so ya'all just can't understand..) the safety and security and well-being of your spouse is not just a Single Issue, it's the ***ONLY*** issue.
ANY threat to one's spouse is a 1000% DEAL BREAKER as far as support goes. At least it is that way with married couples that actually really love each other...
Put another way... My wife is a teacher.. If the GOP supported policies that put my wife at risk of being killed, THAT would be a deal-breaker for me.. I would trash the GOP unmercifully..
I simply COULD NOT support a Party that would, as likely as not, get my lovely wife killed...
This is exactly why I say that it is flat out IMPOSSIBLE for a person to support the Democrat Party and ALSO support LEOs..
It's a complete and utter impossibility...
And if you are MARRIED to a cop (as my lucky wife is.. :D) then there is simply NO WAY IN HELL that you could support the Party that would, as likely as not, get your spouse killed..
The ONLY way that THAT would happen is if the guy really ISN'T married to a cop.. Or, if he is, he is looking for a way to get out of the marriage...
Of course, this is all a hypothetical example to illustrate the disparity of claiming to support the Democrat Party AND claiming to support LEOs...
Any resemblance to actual people or events is entirely coincidental....
Top House Dems continue paying family members thousands of dollars using campaign funds
Maxine Waters pays daughter another $16K, adding to $1.2M in previous payments
FIRST ON FOX: Top House Democrats Maxine Waters and James Clyburn have continued to shell out tens of thousands of dollars in campaign funds to their family members ahead of the November midterm elections.
The re-election campaign for Waters, the U.S. House Financial Services Committee chairwoman, paid a total of $16,000 to the congresswoman's daughter in four separate payments in July and September of this year.
Karen Waters, who has been organizing slate-mailing operations to bolster her mother's re-election since 2003, and her company, Progressive Connections, have received more than $1.2 million from Waters’ campaign over the past nearly two decades.
A Federal Election Commission (FEC) filing this week by Citizens for Waters shows that Karen Waters received a total of $16,000 from the committee this quarter for "slate mailer management fees."

Is there anything more corrupt than a Demonrat???
Nope...
Republicans Gain Edge as Voters Worry About Economy, Times/Siena Poll Finds
Republicans enter the final weeks of the contest for control of Congress with a narrow but distinct advantage as the economy and inflation have surged as the dominant concerns, giving the party momentum to take back power from Democrats in next month’s midterm elections, a New York Times/Siena College poll has found.
The poll shows that 49% of likely voters said they planned to vote for a Republican on Nov. 8 to represent them in Congress, compared with 45% who planned to vote for a Democrat. The result represents an improvement for Republicans since September, when Democrats held a 1-point edge among likely voters in the last Times/Siena poll. (The October poll’s unrounded margin is closer to 3 points, not the 4 points that the rounded figures imply.)
With inflation unrelenting and the stock market steadily on the decline, the share of likely voters who said economic concerns were the most important issues facing America has leaped since July, to 44% from 36% — far higher than any other issue. And voters most concerned with the economy favored Republicans overwhelmingly, by more than a 2-1 margin.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/republicans-gain-edge-voters-worry-114543299.html?guccounter=1
Doesn't look good for Demonrats, eh?? :D
Both Democrats and Republicans have largely coalesced behind their own party’s congressional candidates. But the poll showed that Republicans opened up a 10-percentage-point lead among crucial independent voters, compared with a 3-point edge for Democrats in September, as undecided voters moved toward Republicans.
The biggest shift came from women who identified as independent voters. In September, they favored Democrats by 14 points. Now, independent women backed Republicans by 18 points — a striking swing given the polarization of the American electorate and how intensely Democrats have focused on that group and on the threat Republicans pose to abortion rights.
The survey showed that the economy remained a far more potent political issue in 2022 than abortion.
WHOOAA!! Who woulda thunked it!!???
Who could have POSSIBLY thunked that Baby Killing would *NOT* save Demonrats in 22 days??
WHO?? Who woulda thought...???
Oh... Wait.. :D
I have to say.. President Trump was WRONG..
I am *NOT* tired of winning.. :D
Hay MC!! Ya around?? :D
I feel a spasm of GLOATING coming on and I don't want to waste it.. :D
WOOT!!!!! 200 comments!!!
A personal best...
OK I'll take a break and give ya'all time to catch up.. :D
This election isn't about inflation or abortion. It's about whether democracy can survive
Of course the economy and reproductive rights are important. But in the shadow of fascism, they almost don't matter
https://www.salon.com/2022/10/17/this-isnt-about-inflation-or-abortion-its-about-whether-democracy-can-survive/
Not factually accurate...
This is about whether the United States Of America can survive...
If Demonrats remain in power, then America is unlikely to survive..
Fortunately, it's looking better and better that Demonrats will be booted out on their collective arse.. :D
The midterms will be a referendum on Biden’s record
GOP Rep. Mayra Flores’ surprise win in the special election for the U.S. House seat in Texas’ 34th Congressional District this past June is looking more and more like a canary in a coal mine for the upcoming 2022 midterm elections. Ms. Flores won the race convincingly in a reliably blue district where the Democratic incumbent won with 55% of the vote just two years ago.
When Politico asked recently “Is the Dobbs effect fading?” they really should have asked if the liberal media-fed outrage of Dobbs was fading. Either way, the answer is an emphatic yes. Unfortunately for desperate Democrats, the 2022 election isn’t about the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision and the left’s extreme abortion position any more than it’s about the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The 2022 midterms are about the wrong track America is on under total Democratic control. A Joe Biden-inspired malaise has set in around us — high inflation, high crime, high gas prices, open borders and more pessimism and division among our citizens than ever.
In poll after poll, we see the exact same thing. The most important issue on people’s minds is the economy and the sky-high high cost of living caused by President Biden’s irresponsible out of control spending bills.

I know, I know.. Ya'all HATE these facts..
But they are facts nonetheless..
Demonrats blew it.. They were given a shot and they totally tanked..
Now it's time to put the adults back in charge...
Let's look back and refresh our memories..
Is there ANYTHING that Creepy Dementia Biden and the Demonrats have done that was good for AMERICA??
Oh sure.. Biden and the Demonrats did some good things for DEMONRATS...
But ya'all can't point to a SINGLE act or accomplishment that was good for America...
Remember when Creepy Dementia Biden said he would UNITE Americans???
Biden and the Demonrats have done more to DIVIDE Americans than any Party in recent history...
And THAT says something...
One has to wonder what lengths Demonrats are going to go to to try and remain in power...
We live in interesting times.. :D

Not exactly rocket science since the instant subject supplied his own personal information right here on this blog a long, long time ago. Anyone claiming to be an LEO who would actually take that leap and make the asinine assumption that someone had an actual police officer run them on NCIC versus any of the other multitudes of free sources available is doing nothing more than displaying their ignorance regarding law enforcement. It's the height of ignorance to make such an assumption, let alone repeat it over and over. The information is freely searchable by anyone with an Internet connection and keyboard.
You won't, because you know I am telling the truth and you are just a lying coward.
It's ignorant to make the claims he's making when the information is free to everyone. The vast majority of the indigent Defendant's pathetic life along with his multiple foreclosures are free to peruse. I do not know a law enforcement officer who isn't well versed in the facts regarding easily searchable public records. They call them "public records" because they're available to the public (not rocket science).
So let me ask again... why would a request for records of someone with your name being a member of law enforcement in FL return zero files? WHY?
Because he was never a law enforcement officer in Florida.
The only answer would be that you were never in law enforcement.
At least not in Florida, but he recently made the claim of 30 years, which only last year he claimed was 25 years. You see the problem, of course, and he made the claim he was a cop multiple times on this forum, then made the claim he never said he was a cop (which is an easily provable lie) and now he's suddenly claiming he was in public safety. Here's a tip for you, Mr. "Public Safety": No one can perform any kind of background check on you on NCIC or search your freely accessed county records unless you're dumb enough to post your information on a public forum, which I don't know an LEO or anyone in "public safety" dumb enough to do that.
Strange that you claimed you were in law enforcement for years on this site and then suddenly changed it and started claiming that you were in "public safety" for 25 - 30 years.
Noticed that too, did you? Rhetorical question.
So just to conclude...
You threatened to file a false police report against my husband because I proved you were lying simply using your own statements as proof. You threatened my husband's job and our well being simply because you are a pitiful excuse for a human.
In fact, a simple search of his county records shows unequivocally that the subject is more aptly described as "Defendant."
I do not want to date you. The thought of you naked is only used if there is no ipecac syrup available. If your name was run, it was for legitimate reasons.
He's the only poster on this forum who got his ass kicked so hard that he urged another poster to harm/kill themselves (as if) and also the only poster on this forum who has threatened to harm others by filing false police reports for which he has zero proof. Now I ask you: What kind of law enforcement officer would actually be dumb enough to do any of that?
Since you are making threats from a different state than which we live, any investigations into your actions would be done by the FBI... you know, those liberal deep state agents out to get people like you.
Heh. I wouldn't think we would have to explain the absolute basics to someone who's claimed on multiple occasions his expertise in law enforcement, but here we are (again). :)
Well, gee whiz people.. There is so much BAD NEWS for Democrats, it's hard to know where to begin??
Hunter Biden??
The Trans Issue blowing up in Democrats faces??

OK Trans embarrassment for Democrats it is.. :D
Influencer Oli London explains why he detransitioned back to male, blasts 'hypocritical' haters
Oli London tells Fox News Digital he's 'used to the hypocritical haters' and revealed the reason for his detransition
YouTuber Oli London is a British influencer, actor and singer who has amassed a huge global following over the last few years.
He shocked the world on Friday, announcing that he was in the process of detransitioning back to a man after living as a transgender woman for the last six months.
"I am no longer trans and have gone back to living as a man," he shared on Twitter. "Grateful if everyone could respect my new pronouns- He/Him KOR/EAN. Thank you."
"Six months ago I had facial feminization surgeries, 11 in one day," he exclusively told Fox News Digital.
"I changed my bone structure. I got hair extensions, changed wardrobes, started wearing makeup, had my hair removed. I did it because I thought it would make me happy. I felt happy at the time but over a period of reflection, I felt I was chasing happiness. Being a woman is not for me."
I am no longer trans and have gone back to living as a man

Whaddi tell ya'll...
This trans thing is just a fad.. A lifestyle that people can assume and discard at will virtue-signaling all the way...
It's fun for them to get attention by pretending they are something they are not..
It sure as hell ain't science..
I'm trans and I wanna be a girl!!!
Six months later...
"Naw, I am not trans anymore and I want to go back to being a guy!!"
It's all about virtue-signaling attention.. Nothing more..

Not as long as this fictional cop continues to try to make Weigantia all about him/all the time.
I tend to agree more with MC on this.
He's a more sophisticated version of Don Harris and a complete waste of time.
I disagree he is "sophisticated." In point of fact, his posts reek daily with the stench of prattling repetitive crude ignorance and unsophistication.
And he's a douchebag for stiffing CW out of the $100 bet he lost.
He claimed that Trump received a higher percentage than he actually did so the welcher actually lost more than $100 and thus reneged on your agreement in more ways than one.
Moron Vick,
As with all your comments, it's nothing but spin... And FACT LESS spin at that...
The FACT of the matter is my military and LEO bona fides are WELL ESTABLISHED as factual, both a long time ago when Weigantia® was new and fun and even quite recently with MC...
As far as Shit Husband's Russ' alleged spouse.. Based on the facts that Shit Husband Russ himself stated, a complaint to his spouse's PD was MORE than warranted..
Any normal person would have done the same thing..
What is confusing to EVERYONE here is why you morons would bring all this up NOW??
It was over 2 years ago that this happened..
So, why dredge it all up now?? There is no reason to other than being disruptive here in Weigantia..
As I have pointed out as fact, your actions and Shit Husband Russ' actions would have gotten ya'all banned from any forum on the Internet..
Any form not suffering from PTDS, that is..
But hay.. Ya'all want to bring up this shit again, I am more than happy to slap ya'all down AGAIN.. :D

Oh look.. Creepy Dementia Biden got caught in ANOTHER lie!!! :D
Joe Biden ‘was aware’ and potentially ‘involved’ in son Hunter’s crony business dealings: Whistleblowers
Whistleblower documents reveal the FBI has in its possession 'voluminous evidence' related to Hunter Biden’s potentially criminal business dealings
New whistleblower documents reveal that President Biden "was aware of Hunter Biden’s business arrangements and may have been involved in some of them," Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley said Monday, suggesting that the FBI has "voluminous evidence" related to the potential criminality of those ventures.
Grassley, R-Iowa, sent a letter Monday morning to Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher Wray and U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss detailing new whistleblower allegations that the bureau is in possession of "significant, impactful and voluminous evidence with respect to potential criminal conduct by Hunter Biden and James Biden." Weiss has oversight of the Hunter Biden investigation.
Grassley said the FBI has a series of documents in its possession related to information on Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma Holdings. Hunter Biden sat on the board of that company.
"The documents in the FBI’s possession include specific details with respect to conversations by non-government individuals relevant to potential criminal conduct by Hunter Biden," Grassley wrote.

That pretty much says it all..
For Fetterman, it’s not that he’s ill, but trying to hide it
Across the half-century since then, I realize that empathy for someone with a disability is the sine qua non of being human.
But that doesn’t mean that we ignore disability when it has a very real, very relevant impact on issues of importance, issues as who should be going to Washington to represent us in the Senate.
As we all now know, even though it was initially and deliberately hidden by the candidate, John Fetterman suffered a life-threatening stroke in May. He is still in the recovery phase and has refused to release medical records, which would establish just how far along he is in that recovery.
Fetterman continues to insist that he’s gotten a clean bill of health from his physician, the same one he ignored five years ago when told of a serious heart condition that might lead to a stroke. He keeps pointing to a letter from that doctor, a letter that is almost six months old, as proof that he’s fine.
But he’s not fine. You don’t have to be a neurosurgeon or a cardiac specialist like Fetterman’s opponent, Mehmet Oz, to see that he is struggling to communicate and comprehend. He admits to using a teleprompter to help translate questions for him.
https://www.djournal.com/opinion/columnists/for-fetterman-it-s-not-that-he-s-ill-but-trying-to-hide-it/article_b13270a4-a166-5957-9609-197afac0518a.html
Yep.. Yep... Yep... As I said... Fetterman is toast in PA... :D
Any sympathy for Fertterman is tempered by the FACT that he lied, AND CONTINUES TO LIE, about his very real disability..
A disability that would disqualify ANYONE for a Senate Seat...
Putting aside the Americans With Disabilities Act, it's fair to suggest that putting a man with a significant medical disability in such a sensitive position of authority is reckless.
Some point to the fact that Tammy Duckworth, who lost her legs while piloting a helicopter in the military and Madison Cawthorne, who was paralyzed in an accident and used a wheelchair and Arlen Specter, who served while fighting cancer are examples that you don’t have to be perfectly healthy to be able to perform competently.
What they’re forgetting is that Duckworth lost her legs in service to her country, Cawthorne had a freak accident and Specter was completely transparent and forthcoming about his problems.
Fetterman had a stroke very likely because he ignored the advice of his doctor, and covered it up until he couldn’t. That’s a sign of recklessness and a lack of judgment that disqualifies him from office.
And that’s the point.
And that is EXACTLY the point..
It's not so much Fretterman's disability, although THAT is a valid issue...
It's Fretterman's lack of character and integrity that is the issue here...
Based on Fretterman's dishonesty and lack of character and integrity, Fretterman doesn't DESERVE to be in the US Senate..
It's really THAT simple...
It isn’t the disability so much as it is the failure to come clean. It isn’t the disability so much as it is the attempts by friendly media and supporters to deflect attention. It isn’t the disability so much as it is the attempts to turn this whole thing into a referendum on bigotry.
My friend Jason had this to say on the subject:
“After I lost most of my hearing because of meningitis, I accepted the fact that there were some jobs that I simply couldn’t do, such as police officer, which I was on track to becoming until I got sick at 19. Fetterman needs to come to this same realization.”
That shows humility and wisdom, two things Fetterman and his supporters clearly don’t have
And THIS is dead on ballz accurate...
This is EXACTLY the point..

The kind of information you CLAIMED to have can ONLY be garnered from an NCIC check..
You are laughably incorrect. Thank you (again) for proving your ignorance regarding the basics of public information.
So, either you are lying now or you were lying then..
Which is it??
Answer: You're incorrect, and your ignorance is showing again and will be archived for all posterity.
NOT the kind of information you claimed to have.. THAT kind of information can ONLY be found in an NCIC check..
Incorrect.
AND like Vick The Moron you COMPLETELY ignore the sequence of events.. I only said that a complaint would be warranted AFTER you claimed you had your alleged spouse run an NCIC check on me..
I'll let you in on a little secret (not secret) that any moron with a modicum of brain cells can discern here: He actually never said he ran an NCIC check on you; all of us here can read this. You're incorrect claiming the only place the information can be found is through NCIC... laughably incorrect, as anyone with a law enforcement/investigation background already knows.
The only thing you're proving is your (lack of) "expertise" that you keep claiming when you actually have no clue what you're prattling on and on about.
So, to recap: You're providing (repeatedly) the proof to refute your own prattling nonsense. Furthermore, you're making a stupid assumption and an ass out of yourself to claim that this information is only obtainable through NCIC. Your (lack of) "expertise" is (again) showing. You're proving repeatedly that you have no clue what you're talking about.
Moron Vick,
Blaa blaa blaaa... As usual.. long on hysterics and BS with not a fact in sight..
But HERE is one fact..
"It is not a crime for a police officer to perform a background check, you inveterate effing uneducated hysterical ranting swamp poon;"

Saudi prince sends threat to the West after Biden warns of consequences for kingdom
The Saudi prince warned the kingdom is the 'project of jihad and martyrdom'
A Saudi prince related to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's seemingly took aim at President Biden and the U.S., warning leaders not to threaten Saudi Arabia.
"Anybody that challenges the existence of this country and this kingdom. All of us, we are products of jihad, and martyrdom," Saudi Prince Saud al-Shaalan, who is married to one of the grandaughter's of the late King Abdulaziz Al Saud, said in a video that was posted to Twitter Saturday. "That's my message to anybody that thinks that it can threaten us."

No, you and Vick The Moron and Bashi just horribly attacked her and dragged her into this Flame War...
Flame war? Heh. When you use the word "bitch" on this forum, as far as I'm concerned, I'm going to always assume you're talking about yours. If that's an attack, then you're her attacker.
What kind of a LOW LIFE would do that??
Check your mirror for the "LOW LIFE" attacker who posts the word "bitch." You want to talk about your wife; keep posting that word, and I'll assume you want to discuss one. If that's a vile attack on your wife, then you're her vile attacker. None of this is exactly rocket science.
YOU are the one who attacks my wife and claims you had this alleged "Devon" run an NCIC check on me..
No one has attacked your wife except the poster with gossamer thin skin who can't stop himself from posting the word "bitch." Check your mirror for that guy.
Fine.. Then state for the record that there was NO BACKGROUND/NCIC CHECK ever done..
A person can run a background check in multiple hundreds of ways without going anywhere near NCIC. The fact that you don't know this is knee-slapping hysterical. Your (lack of) "expertise" is (again) duly noted.
State for the record that you were lying back then because you were sick and tired of having your ass kicked all over Weigantia®...
The only ass I've ever seen you kick on this forum is your own; you're far too uninformed and demonstrably ignorant of the basics to understand how absolutely devoid of any brains you appear on a regular basis and on multiple occasions. It's painful to watch you making the same asinine retorts as if posting something that is patently false multiple times will somehow magically turn it into a fact. It doesn't. The only thing it does is prove your gullibility and outright lack of basic knowledge.
State for the record that there was NO BACKGROUND/NCIC Check run on me by you or yours and that you were just full of shit back then and apologize for going off like that and we can put this WHOLE mess behind us and never bring it up again..
There was definitely a background check run on you; thank you for proving unequivocally your expertise in "public safety" that would allow anyone with a keyboard and Internet connection to perform said background check without spending a single penny. Obviously, no one ever made the claim it was an NCIC check except you. We cannot help the fact you're ignorant about FOIA and public information and basic investigation techniques; that's your problem and certainly and remotely not ours.
So, to recap: We can't help your hysterical ignorance, but we can damn sure recognize it when we see it.
Blaaa blaaaa blaaaaa....

Boston University researchers claim to have developed new, more lethal COVID strain in lab
Researchers at Boston University added a spike protein from the Omicron variant with the original Whuan strain, which has an 80% kill rate
Researchers at Boston University say they have developed a new COVID strain that has an 80% kill rate following a series of similar experiments first thought to have started the global pandemic that began in China.
The variant, a combination of Omicron and the original virus in Wuhan, killed 80% of the mice infected with it, the university said. When mice were only exposed to Omicron, they experienced mild symptoms.
The research was conducted by a team of scientists from Florida and Boston at the school's National Emerging Infectious Diseases Laboratories.

How the Border Went MAGA
“The Democrats have a really, really big Latino problem.” It was the morning after Mexico-born Republican Mayra Flores won the June special election for a congressional seat in Texas’s Rio Grande Valley, and longtime conservative strategist and co-founder of the Lincoln Project Mike Madrid was incensed by the seeming inattention of Democrats to one of the nation’s fastest-growing demographics. “The incompetence and the disregard, it’s infuriating,” Madrid steamed on an emergency taping of his podcast, The Latino Vote. “This district that just flipped has been in Democratic control since 1870,” he said, before noting it had the second-highest concentration of Latinos of “any congressional district in the entire country, okay?” Losing a district like that constituted “a five-alarm fire for the Democrats heading into the November elections.”

Looks like Oregon is going Red!!! :D
Christine Drazan Is in The Hunt
Thanks to a well-run campaign and Democratic missteps, Oregon’s Republican gubernatorial candidate is in striking distance of victory in November.
Oregon Democrats could be staring at their worst election in decades. The Beaver State’s newly created sixth congressional district—intended “to be a safe blue, Biden +13 fortress in Salem and suburban Portland,” according to the Cook Political Report—was moved from “Lean Democrat” to “Toss-Up” by the political-analytics group on Tuesday. Democrats, who currently control every statewide office and enjoy supermajorities in both chambers of the state legislature, “have struggled to put away the nearby Eugene 4th CD and Bend/suburban Portland 5th CD, also both open seats,” Cook’s David Wasserman noted. Most significant of all, in the governor’s contest, “Republican Christine Drazan has a genuine chance to defeat Democrat Tina Kotek by attacking the status quo on homelessness and crime, in a race scrambled by an independent bid by wealthy ex-Democrat Betsy Johnson.”

How many more facts must ya'all see before ya'all acknowledge what everyone (with more than 2 brain cells to rub together) can see??
Demonrats are going to get their asses handed to them.. No matter what some stoned luser in Weigantia® thinks..
:D
On the PLUS side, maybe the 3rd world shithole that is Portland will finally get hosed down and cleaned up..
Gods know Demonrats sure made a mess of it..
In the roughly one-and-a-half years since Oregon opted to decriminalize all drugs—including crack cocaine, methamphetamine, and heroin—fatal overdoses have jumped about 60 percent, with a body count numbering in the thousands. The decriminalization approach of treating addiction as a disease, not a crime, has proved a dismal failure: less than 1 percent of users ticketed for possession have actually entered treatment.
WOW.. Who woulda thunked that DECRIMINALIZING DRUGS would lead to a massive explosion of drug ODs??
:eyeroll:
Are Demonrats REALLY that stoopid!??
That's ALMOST as bad as Demonrat's being shocked that their DEFUND DEMONIZE DEMORALIZE THE POLICE policies lead to more police killings and more violent crime...
What *IS* it about Demonrats that they are so completely and utterly moronic???
On the OTHER hand we do have a pretty good representation of that here...
Moron Vick.. Shitty Husband Russ... Stoned MC...
So yea.. Demonrats ARE that stoopid and moronic.. Apparently.. :D
In Portland, where the district attorney declined to prosecute 70 percent of cases related to the city’s destructive Black Lives Matter riots in 2020—which cost the city tens of millions of dollars in damage—local authorities appear to have given up on public order. The number of homeless encampments exploded after the municipal government stopped enforcing vagrancy laws, and as of last November, the city had fewer police on the ground than at any point in the past 30 years. In 2021, Portland saw an all-time record number of shootings and killings; the city is on pace to break both records again this year. And last month, the first statewide test scores since 2019 found that “Oregon students’ reading, writing and math skills plummeted due to pandemic-induced disruptions to schooling,” which the Oregon Department of Education acknowledged “could take years to repair and may in some cases never be made up for,” the Oregonian reported.
Jeezus, Bashi!!! How can you be a Demonrat after ALL the crap that Demonrats have pulled that has literally DESTROYED Portland??
Yer like that guy who pretends to be married to a cop and is a hysterical Demonrat supporter even though Demonrat policies will as likely as not, get his spouse killed..
Obviously, THAT moron wants out of his marriage, eh?? :^/
It's just SOOOO incomprehensible that you people are PROUD Demonrats when it's OBVIOUS to anyone how utterly incompetent and destructive Demonrats are...
:eyeroll:
Residents have noticed. A January poll found that 54 percent of Oregonians believe the state is on the wrong track, while just 33 percent believe it’s on the right one.
The outgoing Democratic governor, Kate Brown, has continually polled as the least popular governor in America. Kotek, a close Brown ally, can’t run from her party’s toxic record on the campaign’s defining issues. Kotek backed Measure 110, the November 2020 ballot initiative that decriminalized hard drugs, and she has routinely defended the measure. Despite her recent attempts to memory-hole her record on education, she repeatedly led efforts to block the reopening of Oregon schools during her tenure as speaker of the Oregon House and declined to condemn the teacher-union-led re-shuttering of schools in Portland as late as this year. As Willamette Week noted, “Kotek was chief sponsor of House Bill 3115, which enshrined in state law the right to camp in public spaces—over pushback in Salem from critics who saw the bill as exporting Portland’s policies to the rest of the state.”
As I said... The facts damning Demonrats are as plentiful and overwhelming as they are conclusive..
And the top Democrat regularly sided with rioters over law enforcement during Portland’s BLM uprisings, even penning a letter rebuking police for responding with tear gas when protesters attempted in July 2020 to burn down a police-union building. The crowd-control efforts were “completely unacceptable,” Kotek wrote, apparently in the belief that the building was empty—not that this would excuse such lawless and destructive behavior. And it turned out that two officers had been inside at the time
And here is a PERFECT example of all of ya'all's hysterical Cardassian 6JC BS while, at the same time, IGNORING the FACT that there were DAILY 6 JANs in Portland and all over the country for YEARS!!
Hypocrisy.. It's not a bug in Democrat programming.. It's a feature..
Well, it looks like I am on a roll today!! :D
Change is in the air. A long-demoralized Oregon GOP can smell an elusive victory. Democrats can sense it, too. It’s no wonder that President Biden is traveling to the state—normally a safe Democratic hold—to campaign with Kotek. But with less than four weeks to go until November 8, Drazan is in the hunt, and the president’s efforts may be too little, too late.
One thing is certain...
Oregon is going Red...
Aren't you sooo happy Bashi!!?? :D

You can spew all the BS you want Russ.. It STILL doesn't change the fact of what you did.. And if it HAD been anything but an NCIC check, why didn't you say so at the time??
What part of "background check" is confusing you? You make a total ass out of yourself months and months after the original post by interjecting your own false bullshit into the conversation, and you expect that Russ should have anticipated your future dumbshit assumption and explained it for you?
Here, let me connect the dots for you since you're stuck on terminally ignorant:
(1) Russ never claimed who ran the background check. You prove this every time you quote him.
(2) Russ never claimed it was an NCIC check. That bullshit is yours.
(3) How would a fictional person run any kind of check on anyone?
You didn't say anything at the time because you DIDN'T do it any other way except thru your alleged spouse running an illegal NCIC check..
It's asinine on its face interject the idea that Russ should have anticipated your rank ignorance and explained that the background check wasn't what your future claim would assume it was. It's also asinine on its face to claim that a fictional person has run any type of anything on you.
You're busted, Russ The Shit Husband..
Russ didn't answer your future stupid posts in his original post. Not even a good try.
The FACTS clear prove beyond **ANY** doubt that you had your alleged spouse run an NCIC check on me...
Thank you for repeatedly kicking your own ass.
I can prove it..
Why didn't you prove it when Russ originally posted it?
Give me the Department your supposed spouse works for and his badge number... If it is as you say and I am filing a false police report, your alleged spouse has absolutely NOTHING to worry about and *I* will be the one in trouble..
Only a absolute dickhead without a brain would post his and his family's personal information on a public forum. In the original post you said it wouldn't be that hard to find since Russ has dropped so many clues. Thank you ever so much for proving your inability to obtain the information; you genuinely suck.
But you won't do that, will you Russ The Shit Husband.. Because you KNOW you are dirty and you KNOW your supposed spouse committed a felony..
He knows you're an idiot and a obvious blowhard; you've proven that on multiple occasions. You simply cannot stop yourself from kicking your own ass because you quite obviously cannot connect one simple dot to another.
But hay... Let's say for the sake of the argument that I am wrong.. I am not and the facts PROVE I am not, but let's pretend...
You're already pretending, and you're already wrong.
YOUR SIMPLE ADMISSION THAT YOU RAN A BACKGROUND CHECK ON ME IS DAMNING ENOUGH!!!!
No, it isn't. Not when you've made multiple threats against people on this forum and you were dumb enough to provide your information on multiple occasions.
You took a political argument into the realm of real life...
Your prattling hatred frequently has nothing whatsoever to do with political discourse, and you know it. Running a background check on a lying blowhard who keeps posting threats of violence on a public forum happens practically every day. If you had any knowledge whatsoever in the basics of law enforcement, no one would need to explain that to you.
Such a moronic and low-life act would get you banned from ANY respectable forum on the Internet..
Something someone does outside the forum should get them banned? *laughs*
And you even went to far as to go thru FDLE!!????
So you're saying NCIC isn't the only source for information? Yeah, we already knew that.
You just keep digging your hole deeper and deeper, Russ The Shitty Husband, eh?? :D
Said the self-described "expert" in "public safety" who was fool enough to post his and his family's own personal information on an archived public forum for multiple years and cannot stop himself; talk about digging. You are such a pathetic wannabe, Michael. It's painful to watch your ignorance.

WHO WOULD BE STUPID ENOUGH TO PUT THAT KIND OF INFORMATION ON A WEBSITE FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO HAVE ACCESS TO IT???
Exactly! What kind of person claiming expertise in "public safety" would actually be dumb enough to post his and his family's information on an archived public forum!? Rhetorical question.
Oh wait... whoops... YOU would be that stupid!
Would we call that expertise in public safety!? No, we definitely would not.
I believe that there have been a few people over the years on this site that have gone to the trouble of running the name and personal information that you so brilliantly posted to this site.
His archived threats regarding firearms on this forum is probable cause enough.
A troll stupid enough to tell the world who he is really should not be surprised when people use that info to expose him.
Would we refer to someone who exposed his and his family's personal information on an archived public forum as an expert in "public safety"? I know you would not, Russ, and I assure you without hesitation that that is one piss-poor way to prove your bona fides in "public safety." Duh.
I love that you are trying so hard to convince yourself that my proving you have lied to everyone here somehow makes me the bad guy! Michael, you lie all the time.
He is nothing but a wannabe who cannot seem to stop himself.
This has been a real treat... watching you ranting, raving and running around like a chicken with it's head cut off. You even decided to make a big deal attacking a gay movie in our honor. Bless your heart! Even with the free room and board included in taking up residence in your mind... it's a nasty hole that needs to be demolished.
You obviously are living rent free in his head, Russ. I think Jussie Smollett of Weigantia is just desperate to date you. Note the example he linked to regarding an incident in Arizona; not trying to make you gag, but it's obvious that the EXACT thing he wants is you to want him, and he admitted this when he confessed that the example he provided was the "EXACT circumstances" as this.
Dream on, Bubba Trump Holster!
We are definitely out of his league, and he can't have us. Love you, Russ. :)

One last note for you....and it's kinda important... NCIC does NOT give criminal history when officers run a name through it... it only gives active wants and warrants and protection order info.
Russ! He was making a fool out of himself repeatedly, and you go and give him the facts; you are much nicer than I. I was quite content watching the fool claim that NCIC was the only source that supplied information that it didn't even provide.
So unless you had active warrants for your arrest, the info I would have learned was that you came back clear.
It might divulge his license is (again) suspended... since he's definitely a recidivist perp of DWLS.
Anyone with minimal experience in law enforcement knows this.
Yep. The information he claimed was "only" on an NCIC report isn't actually contained in an NCIC report at all.
I've let you continue to spew as many wrong statements regarding your police expertise and background as I can put up with. This will hopefully demonstrate once and for all that you know nothing about policing.
I was enjoying him making himself look repeatedly ignorant, and there you go and spoil it; you are so much nicer than I.
You just don't know when to shut your mouth!
His wannabe, lying, and ignorance bona fides are well established here.
You keep piling lie upon lie trying to prove you are right and it keeps getting worse and worse for ya!
The self-admitted "dog" can't stop chasing your stick, Russ.
Give up.
He might as well since he's already proven beyond doubt that he obviously sucks at "public safety."
Oh, and apologize to my husband for threatening to file a false police report against him for everyone to see. You chose to go after my husband and wanted to damage his career as a police officer.
In Captain Whorely's defense, he's already admitted he doesn't have the information to do that when he begged you to supply it to him (as if everyone is as effing ignorant as he demonstrably is)... but not before he already stated how it shouldn't be too hard to locate the information since you'd left so many clues; although, apparently not enough clues for an obvious wannabe like him with his level of (lack of) "expertise."
It's bad enough you steal the valor of those that serve in law enforcement, but to actively threaten to file a false complaint is just too much.
There's no excuse for this. Michale's pathetic ass reminds me of the right-wing Q-Anon crazies and white supremacist/fascist insurrectionists who attacked police officers with flags that said: "Back the Blue."
You can claim to "back the blue" and that you're "pro law enforcement" until you're blue in the face, but if you're assaulting them and threatening to bring harm to them, the only person you're deluding with that shit is yourself... because you're sure as hell not deluding anyone here and certainly not me or Russ.
You have made a FOOL of yourself and should be ashamed.
This is exactly what I mean when I say he is too ignorant to understand that he's "kicking his own ass." He's claimed on multiple occasions now (archived herein for all posterity) that NCIC is the only background check that contains the relevant information... when it most certainly does not even.
Here's an idea ...
How about all those who persist in posting off-topic comments (Michale, Russ, Kick et al.) continue posting your rants right here in THIS comments section and leave all of Chris's other headlining pieces free from all of your personal business and asinine name-calling and all other manner of nonsense that really belongs on some whole other blog, to be perfectly frank.
I mean, seriously guys, get a freakin' grip!

And your IGNORANCE on NCIC is astounding...
Nice try, asshat. Russ is correct.
You think, just because Military Officers are "Commissioned" you figured POLICE Officers were ALSO "Commissioned"..
Not all military officers are commissioned. What? You never heard of an NCO?
Police Officers are SWORN, not COMMISSIONED you ignorant shithead...
Police officers are sworn and commissioned, you "ignorant shithead." Not all of them are commissioned, of course, there are still definitely a plethora of bald fat guys policing in podunk towns all over America who have no education/commission and practically zero training, but those idiots are a dying breed.
You know absolutely NOTHING about LEOs and what they are and do... You even thought that retired LEOs are nothing but civilians with no consideration at all from SWORN officers..
Show me a sworn officer who isn't also a commissioned officer, and 8 times out of 10, I'll show you a fat old man with no education in law enforcement... a few of the last vestiges of a dying moronic breed.
Your ignorance is LAUGHABLE...
Laugh it up, asshole; your ignorance is archived. :)

However, I would first like to make a special dedication to our Kick. She, indubitbubbly, knows all about this treat but here's a tune just for her ... enjoy, Kick!
Thank you, EM. I do appreciate that, but you are correct that I've heard it... the day it was released, October 13. It sounds to my ear like it was most likely recorded during the very late 1980s and has a "The Miracle" vibe to it:

I wondered if I'd see you post it, and I do thank you very much for thinking of me. :)
You're welcome!
...waiting for the other shoe to drop. Heh.
No more shoe dropping on this thread from me.
Meet you on the next one. :)
