Scott Pelley: Did you, well, she had pneumonia. I mean –

Mike Cernovich: How do you know?

Scott Pelley: Well, because that’s what was reported.

Mike Cernovich: By whom? Who told you that?

Scott Pelley: Well, the campaign told us that.

Mike Cernovich: Why would you trust a campaign?

There are four days till election day. Tens of Millions of people have already voted and every single bit of the next four days campaigning both in person and online is to convince you of their message.

The basic Trump message is that we have momentum and the only thing that can keep us from winning is cheating.

The basic Harris message is we’re still in this and the tide is going our way.

Additionally there are a ton of paid surrogates online (For the record I’m not one of them) out to spin people toward these things.

I presume that anyone whose living depending on advancing a narrative is going to earn their money.

So don’t assume anything asserted is automatically true, even if it advances the side you are for and as for the media and spokesmen remember this key phrase from my favorite Yes Prime Minister episode when the PM tell his press secretary to release a statement about some troop movements: EMPHASIS MINE

James Hacker : [phone rings]  Oh, yes, Paul. You know you have an airborne battalion on standby in Germany? Never mind how I know. Well, since it’s not being used, I want them to fly straight off to St George’s Island. Sort of between Africa and India. A goodwill visit. Just showing the flag. They have been invited. Yes. Leave in… six hours. Yes, an instant goodwill visit. Tell your press office to announce it at once. No, no, leave me out of it. A routine visit. All right – a routine surprise visit. Well, say they were invited earlier, but the NATO exercise got in the way. Now they’re not needed, they’re going anyway. All right. Nobody knows it’s not true. Press statements aren’t delivered under oath.

Have faith in God, from all others demand evidence, particularly until things are all over.

It’s the first of the month so that means a new indulgence Calendar

It’s also November so that means that from today Nov 1st all Saints Day to Nov 8th there is a daily chance to earn a plenary indulgence (under normal conditions) if you go to a cemetery and pray for the dead that day.

That’s actually what Halloween is All Hallows Eve the vigil for today, All Saints Day.

Let me note that the indulgence calendars always have blank lines included for each day to add on names. I mention this because Jazz Shaw a rather nice guy has just died and if you don’t want to wait till next month to get an indulgence for him since this month’s calendar was already set you can pencil him in any day you like or for more than one day.

Anyways here’s the Calendar.

The year is 2031.  Kamala Harris has been president for six and a half years, after the Democrats stole their third presidential election in a row. 

Things in the United States are really great for a very small segment of the population.  This small cabal, numbering a few hundreds of thousands, either holds power in the Harris Regime or serve those in power.  These individuals are all zealous Marxists, just like Comrade Kamala.  They are doing well because they are living off the public trough in the open or indirectly.

The rest of the population is suffering through uncounted hardships. 

Not only did Comrade Kamala put an end to the Trump tax cuts, her regime imposed a plethora of new and oppressive tax increases.  The most harmful tax imposed was her ludicrous tax on unrealized capital gains.  That insanity ground the US economy to a halt.

Immediately after taking control of the White House, Kamala ramped up federal spending to an absurd level through unconstitutional Executive Orders.   All of this spending was ‘paid for’ by turning on the printing presses.  The resulting inflation rivaled that of the Weimar Republic.

In a deeply misguided attempt to fight the runaway inflation, Comrade Kamala implemented her price control plan.  The resulting shortages were devastating and universal.

Forget about driving your own car. Kamala banned all gas-powered vehicles. Everyone must drive an EV. Unfortunately, there is no electricity to charge them because all coal and natural gas power plants were closed down. Solar and wind were grossly inadequate.

Free speech is now a thing of the past.  Kamala Harris expanded Biden’s partnership with all social media platforms.  Dissent is now impossible.

Kamala Harris made abortion up until birth the ‘law of the land’ via executive orders.  Any doctor that refuses to murder an unborn child is prosecuted.

All public bathrooms are now unisex, along with all locker rooms.  All women’s sports teams must accept male athletes.

The only way to avoid the horrors outlined in this article, Donald Trump must accumulate enough votes to make a steal impossible.

James Taylor: This is the works! Either we’re out of business or bigger than ever before.

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington 1939

I have said for years that the only reason why Donald Trump won in 2016 was that the Democrat Bosses believed the polls and thought that Trump had no prayer, thus when Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania suddenly were going for Trump on election night the Democrats did not have the apparatus in place to steal the election.

(The tell for this was the VERY long delay in calling the final states to put Trump over the top and the fact that when those states were called, they were all called within a few minutes of each other. Once they realized they couldn’t pull it off, they left the numbers be released.)

At the time I warned

However that won’t be the case in 2020,  I’ll wager that in 2020 the bosses in Milwaukee, Detroit, Madison and elsewhere will be ready, we’ll see plenty of mail in ballots and absentee ballots that we didn’t see before in those states and plenty of voters looking to go for the GOP will be in the same spot that Steven Kruiser was on election night.

We have four years to prepare for this so we’d better get ready because as our friends on the left have demonstrated in the past, they play for keeps.

After all you don’t think Soros has been quietly sinking millions into AG races, you know the people who would be protesting election fraud on a local level, just because it’s fun?

And sure enough the Trump White House didn’t take the best advice I had ever given and the steal went forward and state officials and judges dismissed case after case (many times on standing) and (unknown at the time) Federal officials thanks to both action and inaction turned what was going to be a large but peaceful rally on January 6th into an excuse to jail dozens if not hundreds in jail in the hope of setting an example, protest the steal, have your life changed forever.

Now it’s 2024. All the apparatus for the steal is still in place and the preparations made ready long ago but several wild cards came into play that had not been anticipated and the one thing that was, didn’t turn out as expected.

  • Bobby Kennedy decided to run for President and the move to block him from the Democrat primaries and then from the ballot when he decided to go independent drove him to Trump
  • Despite getting the candidate they wanted (Donald Trump) the Democrats discovered that he had learned from his previous mistake and pushed both early voting and ballot harvesting that had been the mainstay of Democrat steal efforts.
  • Joe Biden’s debate performance exposed the entire MSM, already having credibility problems, as liars who had been protecting him for months if not years and blunted them as an effective weapon.
  • The move to push Biden off the ticket angered his team to the point where Biden while being forced to buckle to pressure, threw them a curve and forced them to take Kamala Harris as their leader.
  • The use of lawfare against Trump completely backfired as he completely refused to be cower from the prospect of Jail as did Steve Bannon who went in and came out defiant while people who didn’t like Trump were appalled at the use of the government to imprison political foes
  • Red State Governors like Ron DeSantis exporting their illegals to “Sanctuary Cities” in blue states at a volume where the problem of illegal immigration affected Democrat voter blocs
  • Their move to squash any potential opposition to Kamala outraged many Democrats (particularly I suspect Bernie voters) who realized their votes for Biden in the primary not only counted for nothing, but found there were not going to be given another chance to vote.
  • The (their?) assassination attempt(s) on Trump not only failed but Trump demonstrated a courage and defiance that they had not anticipated completely changing many peoples perception of him.
  • The combination of:
    • Democrats in general and Kamala’s attacks on men in particular
    • Trump’s reaction to the attempt to kill him
    • Illegal immigration finally affecting blue states
  • ….finally started driving Black and Latino voters (particularly men) to him
  • Trump’s outreach to Bobby Kennedy which turned an opponent into an ally.
  • The exceptional choice of J.D. Vance who has proved spectacular on the national stage both as a candidate and a foil to the media
  • The utter ineptness of Kamala Harris as a candidate even in scripted situations.
  • A result so obvious that places like the LA Times, USA Today and the Washington Post are unwilling to endorse the Democrat candidate for the white house

and finally and most importantly

  • Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter and his decision to open the gates of free speech breaking the monopoly of the Deep state/tech state on information

All of this has us in a position where a week away from the election not only is Trump leading in all the swing states with a bunch of early votes banked in many states but he is expanding the map to places where like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan in 2016, the apparatus for a steal is not in place and likely can’t be put in place in time.

In short we are in a position where while the apparatus is in place in key states to steal and election you have a strong likely hood that it would fail because of

  • Increased vigilance
  • A larger margin to overcome
  • A candidate even less credible then LOL 81 million Joe

All of this puts us back to the same formula I postulated 8 years ago:

If 
(Number of votes you can get away stealing) > (Number of votes you might lose by)

Then

Go For it!

Else

Release your vote totals as is

Endif

You will not I have bolded the key phrase get away because we are at a point where it is not only likely that a steal might fail do to the volume of the vote, but the dissatisfaction of the electorate has, in my opinion, reached a point where officials held their noses and went along with the steal last time because they disliked Trump might decide against playing ball.

Furthermore if the steal DOES fail you will not only get a Trump administration with a Trump AG and a bunch of new Trump lawyers at Justice but you will get a Trump administration that has had an election stolen from them hell bent on getting those who did tried to do it to them again.

That is the risk/reward that is now in place for the dishonest and dishonorable undemocratic left. Do they go Jim Taylor and go all in figuring that a 2nd administration in a row will allow them to cement power to the point where Washington will be Chicago forevermore or do they decide to go George Paar the Duke of Duval county figuring they will hold their fire and keep their heads down for the opening they need to return to power.

Regardless of what they dishonest and dishonorable left do we should assume they are going all Jim Taylor and go all out to beat them.
