Can We Do Anything About America’s Decline?
“The only mystery remaining is how long these Democrat-controlled, racially charged, and corrupt municipalities can sustain their budgets and pension commitments with increasingly declining revenue. One can tax the well off, and perhaps even gouge them as California does. But one cannot insult and ridicule them in the process. Being highly taxed is one thing, being highly taxed while hated is quite another.
How eerie that medievalism—defecting, urinating, fornicating, injecting in the street—is relabeled “homelessness—as if the problem is merely a shortage of apartments or tent cities. Somehow cities developed the notion that it was crueler to be told not to pull down one’s pants and defecate in the street than it was for a pedestrian to step into infectious human excrement.
In the next five years, either cities will seek new governance to reduce taxes, break up municipal unions, mandate charter schools, restore police funding and manpower, recalibrate pensions, and prosecute criminals and corrupt officials—or Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Minneapolis, and a score of others will become Detroit.”

Is Ballot Harvesting Code Speak For Cheating?
Is ballot harvesting code speak for cheating?
The term is euphemistic but much more accurate than most euphemistic terms. A devoted activist creeps into a nursing home and assists the Alzheimer victims in selecting their Democrat choice for office. The harvested ballots are then dutifully returned to drop boxes conveniently located in areas that impede observation. The next day the loyal sharecropper conducts a harvest in public housing, assisting the residents in selecting Democrat choices without interrupting their busy schedules. The following day, ballots are harvested from Non-English migrants. A cornucopia of democracy is celebrated by peasant and king alike.
The Dems win elections mostly because they cheat and ballot harvesting is their primary weapon. The only way the Republicans can win through this method is if they are willing to cheat at levels that the Dems cheat. Only by harvesting the ballots of the incompetent, the illegal, the deceased, and the fictitious, will the GOP reap a larger bounty.
I have heard a few pundits propose installing drop boxes in churches and gun shops as if these places can yield more crops than the fields of plenty fertilized with broken voter rolls. Voter rolls where the Mary Smith who changed her name to Mary Jones still votes. Voter rolls where Mr. and Mrs. Johnson who moved out of state still vote from the house that they lived in 10 years ago. Voter rolls where 23 people with the last name Hernandez vote from a house with plywood windows. Voter rolls where the deceased rise from the dead every election year to loyally check the Democrat boxes. There aren’t enough pews or firing ranges in America to beat the phantom voter.
If we know that the other side is cheating, shouldn’t we reciprocate? The problem with cheating is that cheating escalates and escalates quickly. If a person is willing to nullify another person’s vote, what other level of harm would they be willing to inflict? We all renounce violence, but once a line is crossed, another line is soon crossed, and then another, and then another. Cheating escalates.
If MAGA voters are content to counter-cheat, do they really think they can beat the Dems at their own game? The big city political machines have been doing this sort of thing for decades, refining their skills with each passing election. What would it gain the America-first candidate to collect more votes than there are citizens, only to lose yet another close race to the wily Democrat?
MAGA candidates should be forewarned that their ballot harvesting might be viewed through a different lens than legacy cheating. Think J6 “insurrection.’ Think Hillary’s subpoenaed and deleted emails. Think James Comey and the FBI and Merrick Garland and Alvin Bragg and Soros pawns and our corrupt and broken justice system. Look before you leap.
Is ballot harvesting code speak for cheating? Is counter-cheating the answer to election fraud? Can MAGA match the Dems in chicanery? Will there be blowback to counter-cheating? Who owns the moral high ground when both sides cheat? Does moral high ground matter anymore?
I was hoping for some other resolution.
The Editor.
EDITOR’S NOTES
1. We do not link To Fox News or Fox Business News.
2. We sometimes link to Fox affiliates.
3. We sometimes link to sites that contain a video that might have a snippet from Fox News (usually Tucker Carlson).
4. We try to avoid second hand news stories that are sourced from Fox News or Fox Business News.
5. We try to not link to sites with pay walls. This eliminates NYT and WaPo (who cares?) but also eliminates WSJ and Epoch Times. We hope that Epoch Times changes their business model because they are one of the best news outlets in the English language.
6. We believe it is more important than ever for Americans to monitor world affairs. The most influential man in America is probably George Soros and he is not in America–nor is he an American. Other understated influences on America include World Economic Forum, BBC, and CBC, to name but a few.
7. Most English language newspapers in non-English speaking countries are paid subscription sites. This presents an ongoing challenge to report on world affairs.
8. We try to avoid linking to mainstream media when possible We are not hesitant to link to mainstream sources if the news story involves raw data, such as the daily stock market or weather statistics or sports scores. Even then, we usually provide a “Mainstream” disclaimer.
