B-Man

I'm young at heart.

Jump in a time machine with me, my friends, as I write a review of the 2024 vice presidential debate before it even begins. There is a very real possibility that this is going on a lot in American media tonight, and I'm just the only one being honest about it. The Democrats' flying monkeys in the mainstream media are forbidden from admitting that the Republican is the winner of a vice presidential debate. Never mind the fact that the Dem candidate rarely wins these things; the hacks have their marching orders from the Democratic National Committee. All the "Walz really delivered some zingers" recaps that you will see tonight are almost certainly being pre-written as we speak. I remember watching Dick Cheney wipe up every floor in the continental United States with John Edwards in 2004, only to spend the next day reading and hearing glowing accounts of Edwards's win. Um...no. As for the 2024 installment, this one was over long before it began. True, the Democrats have been living in an alternate timeline since Madame Veep helped depose her boss, but there is no universe in which the prevaricating goofball Tim Walz will be sharper than JD Vance. He is slightly less incoherent than Kamala Harris, but that's like patting yourself on the back because you don't drink as much Jack Daniels as Keith Richards. As we have seen time and time again throughout this campaign, JD Vance is one cool customer under the glare of the television lights. He absolutely steamrolls the MSM's Dem propagandists when they attempt to hit him with false premises and "Gotcha!" questions. It's rarely any fun watching a Republican politician dealing with the press, but I'd buy a ticket to watch Vance smack down Kaitlan Collins or Jake Tapper. Yes, the questions will be horrible. Senator Vance, why do you favor bombing Haitian migrants, and is it true that you think all babies and kittens are ugly? The Democrats' MSM lapdogs have not had much luck trying to trip up Vance. When Donald Trump first tapped him as his running mate, I wrote that Vance's celebrity status before he got into politics helped him better deal with the hostile press. He's been proving me right ever since. Many people question whether the vice presidential debate means anything at all. I would probably just give it a shrug in a normal election year. This is not a normal election, though. Who knows what might or might not help? It's best to pay a lot of attention to every detail when the future of the Republic is at stake. https://pjmedia.com/stephen-kruiser/2024/10/01/the-vp-debate-hasnt-happened-yet-but-jd-vance-has-already-won-n4932961

Gee, if only the 'mainstream' media would cover this. The New Data on Migrant Crime By John R. Lott Jr. The new data on all the criminal noncitizens coming into the U.S. is shocking. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) checks the background of illegal aliens they have in custody. But, the administration’s letter to Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) shows that as of July 21, 2024, ICE let 435,719 convicted criminals and 226,847 people with pending criminal charges in their home countries into the U.S. Of those cleared by ICE, 13,099 have convictions for homicide, and another 1,845 were facing criminal charges. Some 9,461 have convictions for sex offenses (not including assault or commercialized sex), and 2,659 face pending charges. The convictions include other crimes such as assault (62,231), robbery (10,031), sexual assault (15,811), weapons offenses (13,423), and dangerous drugs (56,533). About 7.4 million noncitizens are in the “national docket data,” so 662,776 is 9% of the total, and if one extrapolates the numbers to the homicide rate in this country, it strongly indicates that the government is letting migrants into this country who commit murder at a rate 50% higher than the rest of the U.S. population. And these numbers clearly underestimate the crime rate of these noncitizens. The noncitizens in the “national docket data” turned themselves in to border agents for processing or were caught. Those who don’t turn themselves in are obviously far more likely to have something to hide from those doing the processing, so-called “gotaways,” who are observed illegally entering the U.S. but not caught or turned back. These figures coincide with other data from the Arizona prison system and show illegal aliens commit crime at much higher rates than Americans or legal immigrants.

Jimmy Carter @ 100 By Steven Haywood To say I was not a fan of Jimmy Carter would be an understatement, but today he turns 100. In comparison to Biden and the progressive death grip on today’s Democratic Party, he looks a whole lot better in retrospect. Cy Vance, Harold Brown, and Zbigniew Brzezinski were head and shoulders above Biden’s senior foreign and defense policy appointees Blinken, Austin, and Sullivan. It is possible to speak well of some of Carter’s deeds (as Phil Gramm does today in the Wall Street Journal), such as deregulating or partially deregulating transportation and other basic sectors of the economy. https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2024/10/jimmy-carter-100.php

We all have memories Tibsy. Yours seems particularly selective today. Trump did speak up against the bill, but the rest of your title is your own B.S. This is from your original thread post.

Kamala's Katrina By Monica Showalter It looks like Lahaina was a model, not a muck-up, in the federal response to natural disasters in the administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. The response to the aftermath of Hurricane Helene across 800 miles of ten states suggests it. Get a load of Harris, who has decided that now's the time for an Instagram shoot Fact is, FEMA aid has long been inadequate if not gone in times of natural disaster affecting Americans in part because of the amount of FEMA cash now being used to feed, transport, and house illegals: https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/09/kamala_s_katrina.html

1,000 people reported unaccounted for in North Carolina county hit hardest by Hurricane Helene by Jared Downing More than 1,000 people have been reported unaccounted for in a devastated North Carolina county where 30 people have already been confirmed dead after Hurricane Helene, officials said Sunday. Authorities in Buncombe County reported the horrifying toll in an emergency meeting announcing emergency medical shelters and ongoing rescue efforts in areas almost overwhelmed by stormwater. They also announced a special website to appeal for help finding those unaccounted for — with “more than 1,000 reports so far,” one local official told the live-streamed meeting. https://nypost.com/2024/09/29/us-news/hurricane-helene-leaves-1000-people-unaccounted-for-in-hardest-hit-north-carolina-county/

None of your "whatabout" examples mean a damn thing when you keep pushing this false thread. You know that but you can't admit it. You are too invested The board knows that.

Dominion and Georgia Face Heat in Court by Eric Nelf Questions raised about Dominion voting machines finally got the best form of sunlight today – sworn testimony in open court subject to cross-examination. Election security experts Clay Parikh and Ben Cotton testified in Fulton County (Atlanta) Superior Court today. They testified that they were able to identify the master encryption passwords stored in plain text and unsecured on the databases housed in Dominion voting machines. They further testified that basic security protocols call for these passwords to be kept separate and secret so that only authorized persons can access them. This information was turned over to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in March 2024 at the latest, according to the lawyers at the hearing. The allegations, if true, are explosive and have deep ramifications going back years. Many claims of election voting machine issues have been either overstated or outright fabricated, which has done much to discredit any legitimate attempts to increase election confidence. In fact, the left likely wants the right to make overstated or incorrect claims regarding election integrity. It provides them a weapon to use when legitimate questions are raised. It has the added bonus of likely suppressing voter turnout on the right by dampening enthusiasm. That does not mean our election processes are above scrutiny, however. And today, two experts raised legitimate questions that deserve answers. https://redstate.com/eric-neff/2024/09/30/dominion-and-georgia-face-heat-in-court-n2179992

The decapitation of Hezbollah leaves Iran weighing its options by Patrick Wintour Iran’s reformist-led government has said it has no plans to send troops to reinforce Hezbollah in Lebanon, but it is coming under domestic pressure from hardliners seeking to exploit what they regard as a failure to stand up to Israel – and also hoping to block any discussion with the west over future oversight of Iran’s nuclear programme. Calls for a tougher Iranian response redoubled when it emerged that Brig Gen Abbas Nilforushan, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) deputy commander for Lebanon and Syria, had been killed in Beirut alongside the Hezbollah chief, Hassan Nasrallah. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/sep/30/the-decapitation-of-hezbollah-leaves-iran-weighing-its-options?CMP=share_btn_url .

Tibs proves my point about his dishonesty.

What the hell have you been 'focusing' on ??

Kamala Harris made a comment about 17 years ago when she was the District Attorney of San Francisco that has been making the rounds again these last few weeks. Often those kinds of things come and go, but you can tell this clip is resonating because the Harris campaign (not Harris herself of course) is spinning what she said. This is the clip: https://twitchy.com/dougp/2024/09/30/harris-campaign-desperately-spinning-kamalas-2007-warning-to-legal-gun-owners-in-their-homes-n2401586
