Vivek Ramaswamy

I was listening the radio the other day, and the host was interviewing Vivek Ramaswamy. A lot of the things he had to say made sense to me. I thought to myself that I could easily vote for him.

Then I found out that he believes it’s wrong to kill animals for “culinary pleasure” (i.e. eating them). Holding an opinion like that is a deal breaker for me in a Presidential candidate. Why? If he really believes that it is wrong to kill and eat animals, he will be willing to pass and support laws and policies that make it more difficult to eat meat.

I also don’t think it will matter. I think that the elections going forward are rigged, but will continue to vote anyway, because I may be wrong and it costs me virtually nothing to do so.

Look, Squirrel!

The left is busy pointing out that an aide to Clarence Thomas was sent money through the app “Venmo.” They insinuate that it is somehow something unsavory or potential bribery. The amounts involved are not mentioned, but the payments are mentioned as being for a Christmas party. This tells me that the payments were likely less than $200 each. That hardly falls under the same category as the MILLIONS that the Bidens have collected.

This is clearly being done as a means of pulling the bribery spotlight off of the Bidens. Expect the left to continue this war against the Supreme Court. Now that the left has corrupted the electoral process, expect SCOTUS to be packed soon as well.

Michigan and the First Amendment

Democrats in Michigan have proposed a bill that would replace Michigan’s existing Ethnic Intimidation Act and make it a hate crime to cause someone to “feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened.” Under the bill’s framework, “sexual orientation” and “gender identity or expression” are included as classes protected against intimidation. If passed, the hate speech legislation would make violators guilty of a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of $10,000. The law also allows victims of hate crimes to bring civil lawsuits against the offender. Successful plaintiffs can recover three times the actual damages or $25,000, whichever is greater, along with reasonable attorney fees and costs.

What is also a feature is the possibility of “Alternative penalties” under the proposed law.

An alternative sentence may include an order requiring the offender to complete a period of community service intended to enhance the offender’s understanding of the impact of the offense upon the victim and wider community. Community service ordered under this subdivision must be performed with the consent of and in support of the community targeted in the violation.

I can’t see how this isn’t a violation of the First Amendment. Let’s see how it plays out.

Republicans Aren’t The Guys

The Republicans aren’t the party that will defeat Democrats. They are more dedicated to maintaining the status quo than they are to the country or their constituents. Case in point:

Kevin McCarthy and other members of Republican leadership say they will not be impeaching Biden because they don’t want to stoop to democrats level. The rest of the Republican lawmakers are in a dick measuring contest and political infighting to see who will be in charge.

Either Americans need to find another party that is willing and able to represent them, or we are going to lose the entire country, and be forced into a choice between civil war or tyranny.

Trials

As I have been saying since the 2020 election, the left is following the CIA insurgency manual. One of the things that needs to happen is that anyone who poses a risk of organizing a counter-revolution must be eliminated. Leaders, loudly outspoken members of the media, anyone who is a threat.

That’s why Trump has to go. His defense has been gutted by the judge ruling that his lawyers need a security clearance, which they of course have to get from the same government that is trying to prosecute him. As Porretto says, they are denying the lawyers their clearances. This is a show trial that is designed to eliminate DJT.

Be on the lookout for disappearances. That is what comes next. Find prominent conservative citizens in your area and keep tabs on them. If they begin to disappear, you will know that things are moving along. Likewise, get together a list of left wing locals. Keep tabs on them as well. Intelligence is the best tool we have right now.

Technical Details

I spent the morning trying to get Tactical Hermit’s blog moved over to my server. He had an XML backup of the text, but all of the files, pictures, media, etc. are no longer accessible from the old blog because it was nuked.

My advice to all of you is this: As long as your blog is on a server that is owned by an entity that does not respect free speech, it is at risk of being lost. Every day that your blog is on WordPress or Blogger, it is at risk. XML backups only restore the text of the blog, not the pictures, videos, etc. Those are still on the old server.

Moving your blog before you get cancelled will preserve your stuff. Even if you don’t move your blog to here, move it somewhere that will preserve your blog. Every day you wait places your data at risk.

As long as you don’t violate the rules here, I won’t touch your site. I only have one rule with respect to content: Your site can’t be a porn site. Other than that, your site is your site.

Problems

A Twitter personality asked Brittany Griner about her anti-American attitude while she was at the Dallas Airport. Her WNBA provided security detail pushed him away and characterized the incident as a hate attack.

No. Asking questions, even inconvenient ones, is what the press does. Griner took a public stance on a political topic, and she doesn’t get a free pass that prevents her from having to answer questions about that stance.

Likewise, Mr Stein is just as much a member of the press as a reporter for the NY Times. There is nothing that says one must be a member of the government approved propaganda Corps in order to be a member of the press.

Furthermore, anyone whether they are the press or not shouldn’t be physically attacked for asking a celebrity a question. The employees of the WNBA attacked a member of the public ina public place because they were asking questions. Nothing about Mr Stein’s questions merited a physical response. At no time did he present a physical threat to Griner’s person, so I don’t see where the physical response was legally justified. Would the WNBA’s security personnel have pushed a reporter from the propaganda corps? Do they feel justified because he wasn’t asking the right questions? I wonder just how deep the WNBA’s pockets are.

False Flag

The more I see this kind of stuff, the more I am convinced that the entire Jan 6 thing was deliberately done by the swamp.

In the aftermath of the storming of the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters on Jan. 6, new video footage has emerged on social media, showing Antifa activist John Sullivan inciting violence at the federal building under the garb of a Trump supporter.

Sullivan, who was arrested by authorities on Thursday, told Fox News in an interview last week that he was at the protest in the capacity of a video journalist and to film what was happening but did not actively participate in the attack. “It’s just recording, solely, and not being active in it,” he said.
