Israel’s utter decimation of Hezbollah in Lebanon has confirmed that they have reached the “That’s All I Can Stands I Can’t Stands no More!” stage of existence. In the absence of US leadership Bibi and company has decided to act in their own best interest and take out the trash rather than sit back and appease western governments afraid of angry Arabs.

With Tanks now at the border of Lebanon and the entire command structure of Lebanon gone suddenly the Lebanese is suggesting they will enforce UN resolutions to restrain what’s left of Hezbollah but Israel seems to have decided to take the John Wayne approach from True Grit on rats deciding to kill them rather than let them be.

If I was Iran I’d be damn scared right now.

Speaking of Israel I don’t know what is more embarrassing to me as an American.

  1. That a few days after the Houti’s attacks a group of US warships without any response from us Israel took out their entire oil and fuel reserves at Al Hudaydah port in retaliation for a ballistic Missile strike they conducted against them while they were busy in the north.
  2. That Joe Biden the president when asked about this strike into Yemen strike said this:

This is the man who just over three months ago the entire news media INSISTED was sharp as a tack and anyone who said otherwise was speaking “disinformation”

If you want to understand the difference between a champion and a good player look no further than this exchange when Tom Brady was asked about comments made by the current Tampa Bay quarterback Baker Mayfield concerning how the players wanted him to bring “the joy back to Football” lessening the strees they had during the Brady years.

Brady answered thus:

In fairness to Mayfield he has not done bad in Tampa Bay leading them to one playoff win and having a good start this year. When he manages that first Super Bowl Ring then he can talk.

Let me tell you fans in New England are learning the stress of no Super Bowl Rings these days

Some People are shocked that Hillary Clinton is demanding the MSM attack Donald Trump more which given the level they have hit him so far doesn’t seem possible.

I’m not

She is simply claiming the right to treat her slaves as she wishes.

Finally the Chicago White Sox managed to avoid the worst kind of history winning 5 of their final six to finish 41-121 with a .253 winning percentage. While they did set the record for most losses in a season at 121 which beats the 1962 Mets 160 their 41 wins means their winning percentage is .253 as opposed to the Mets .250 meaning that the Mets remain in a class by themselves.

It’s an even bigger accomplishment when you figure that by taking two of three from the Tigers they forced them into the 6th seed in the playoffs when a single win would have given them home field advantage vs the Royals so they had something to play for.

As the election approaches Democrats are accelerating their censorship efforts

Beginning in the 1960s the Democratic Party was infected by Marxism.  Today the infection is nearly complete.  Like all Marxists, Democrats believe that the ends always justify the means.  Whatever it takes to gain and maintain power is perfectly acceptable.

Censorship has always been one of the most widespread tactics used by the political left.  The Democratic Party has embraced this strategy wholeheartedly. Because they are very worried about the up coming presidential election, Democrats have recently ramped their censorship campaign to a ridiculous level.

A group of Democrat senators is demanding Big Tech embark on a massive censorship campaign to ensure Americans’ speech is neutered ahead of the upcoming presidential election.

Sen. Ben Ray Lujan, D-N.M., led the charge in asking “11 of the largest and most popular social media and encrypted chat companies in the U.S. calling for increased resources toward combatting 2024 U.S. election administration and certificationdisinformation.” He was joined by Sens. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Jeff Merkley, D-Ore.

I believe this is an effort to prevent those of us on the political right from speaking out against the Democrat’s efforts to steal the 2024 Presidential election from Trump, as they did in 2020.

The group of Democrats sent a letter to Google, Meta, TikTok, X, Reddit, Snapchat, Amazon, Discord, Signal, Telegram, and Apple demanding information on how the companies plan to “de-amplify and/or remove election disinformation (whether created using AI or not) and/or user accounts who spread this disinformation, when in violation of their policies,” according to a press release.

They also want major platforms to amplify what they deem to be “official election information” and “increase their “2024 election safety team” and ensure it spans the ten most commonly spoken languages on the platforms.

The Political Right has dominated talk radio for decades.  This makes it much harder for the Democrats to steal the upcoming election.  That is why the Democrat controlled Federal Communications Commission just fast tracked Goerge Soro’s efforts to buy 200 radio stations before the election.

The Democrat majority at the FCC “fast-tracked” a deal to allow leftist billionaire George Soros to acquire more than 200 radio stations despite Republican objections.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules stipulate that foreign company ownership of American radio stations cannot exceed 25 percent; Soros reportedly took foreign investment to make his bid for the 200 Audacy radio stations, which covers 40 media markets, and asked the commission to make an exception to the normal review porcess.

This is reportedly the first time a fast-tracked deal has gone through the commission without a typical national security review process, which normally would take up to a year or more.

Every time I have tried to share the truth about Kamala Harris’ ludicrous tax scheme I was ‘fact checked’ by Facebook.  This is the reason why: Soros Machine Trying to Influence Media on Nutty Biden-Harris Tax Idea (mrcfreespeechamerica.org)

There appears to be no Biden-Harris policy proposal too cuckoo-for-cocoa puffs for the well-oiled Soros machine to spin as a stroke of genius to manipulate its media coverage in a positive light.

The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP), fueled with $6,230,000 by leftist billionaire George Soros between 2016 and 2022, pathetically attempted to swat down opponents to the Biden-Harris unrealized capital gains tax proposal for the 2025 budget. “Arguments Against Taxing Unrealized Capital Gains of Very Wealthy Fall Flat,” read the Sept. 11 CBPP headline. If that wasn’t bad enough, the CPBB played word games by spinning that the middle class are “often taxed on unrealized gains” to make the ludicrous proposal appear mainstream.

Springfield: Another Game of 4D Chess Won By Trump vs the MSM

Do remember you are there to fuddle him. From the way some of you young fiends talk, anyone would suppose it was our job to teach!

C. S. Lewis The Screwtape Letters Letter #1

In the days when I was doing Computer Technical Support (which is why this blog is DaTechGuy blog and why I’m DaTechGuy online) one of the things I ran into a lot were people who focused on a particular problem while losing sight of what their actual goal was. You could fix a bug but if you aren’t addressing what the actual goal was you weren’t doing the customer much good. I always established what they were trying to do and if there was a better way of doing it suggest it as I fixed the bug so that the underlying problem, the goal, could be achieved.

Even at my current location which is as far as you can get from tech support when I was occasionally given a new person to train on a simple process like picking items ordered, I never started there. I took them to every part of the warehouse from the receiving docks where the product came in, to the receivers to processed and recorded it, to the group putting to the stations where they were being shipped to the lines where the shipped items were put in their respective bins and back to the docks. The idea was to make people understand that while the task seemed mundane it was a vital cog that worked with all the others to the ultimate goal of getting a product ordered by a customer to their door.

One of the best attributes of Donald Trump is one he shares with both Ron DeSantis who I supported in the primaries, is that the sees things in this way and the entire Springfield business is an excellent example of how this works.

The media/left reacted with glee at Trump bringing up the of pets in Springfield and spent days bashing him over it.

This put the entire countries’ focus on Springfield and while the left was decrying memes showing Trump protecting cats and dogs and stuff like this hilarious image:

The reality was that it became excellent fodder for doing two things, first showing the left for what is it to wit:

And this is classic:

All that is fun but is misses the bottom line which is that now everybody is talking about how the Biden Administration dumped tens of thousand of foreign nationals on a small town doubling it’s population with no support for the town in coping with it.

That’s a subject the left doesn’t want to discuss but it’s the cat and dog business that gave the opening to J.D. Vance when the media tried to play “Gotcha” with him on it:

Or as Ace of Spade put it after posting a NY Times story which included (emphasis Ace):

Mr. Trump’s debate remarks have themselves become a meme on the left since Tuesday, as musical remixes of his comments have ping-ponged around Instagram, TikTok and other social platforms, mocking the pet-eating claims while also prolonging their stay in the news cycle.

The attention has been unwelcome in Springfield, where tensions over immigration have flared since an 11-year-old boy was killed last year when a Haitian immigrant driving without a valid license crashed his minivan into a school bus.

Which caused him to quip

“They’re killing 11-year-old boys, not cats” is not the winning message you think it is, New York Times.

Kurt Schlichter nailed it:

And if Trump ends up going to Springfield and highlights the issue it will be spiking the ball.

Update: JD Vance again:

and again

Who were the winners and losers from Tuesday night’s Presidential Debate?

President Trump won the debate, however, it was not a decisive victory because he was vastly outnumbered on stage.  I expected the debate to be a farce when it comes to journalistic integrity.  The moderators on ABC exceeded my expectations.  Most of the evening Trump was debating Kamala Harris and the two moderators.  Every time Trump had some momentum going he was interrupted with a bogus fact check. 

President Trump did keep his cool for the most part. He exercised a good deal of discipline and self control despite the overwhelming odds.

Kamala lost the debate.  The audience witnessed just how unpleasant a person she really is.  Her tone of voice was harsh and annoying.  Her cackle was prominent.  Unfortunately for Trump she did not let lose any of her word salads.  A week of intensive debate prep paid off big time. 

The whole notion of fair and unbiased debates took a major hit.  The debate was a three way tag team grudge match against Trump.  It was so bad that MSNBC gushed over it.

Truth was the biggest loser during the debate.  Kamala lied with impunity.  She shoveled bovine excrement the entire evening.  She lied about everything and spewed every single hoax imaginable.   21 False Claims & Hoaxes by Kamala Harris that ABC’s Debate Moderators Did Not Fact Check (breitbart.com)

Vice President Kamala Harris issued a slew of false claims and hoaxes that ABC debate moderators did not fact check during Tuesday’s debate against former President Donald Trump.

The American people also lost big time because that was the only debate Kamala agreed to do.  She is too cowardly to risk another debate, especially one where the deck is not overwhelmingly stacked in her favor.
