And, the red states will pass abortion laws confirming that it is legal in the first 15 weeks. Upon reflection, most abortion advocates in red states will realize this is a reasonable compromise.

By the time November rolls around, people in California, New York, Illinois, and all the other blue states will realize this ruling has zero impact on their ability to get an abortion. Meanwhile, I expect gas will still cost $5.

The people implicated in all these shady schemes tend to be part of the Democrat power structure. They are either true believers or their employment is contingent in their participation.

^ So, the bar has shifted from “ elections are perfectly safe” to “ sure, there is cheating, but not enough to worry about”.
In Georgia, the Presidential election came down to 10,000 votes. There are enough ballot harvesters, over 100 most with multiple trips to drop boxes, on video to account for those 10,000 votes.

“Ballot harvesting hahaha what a joke, consider the benefit to the penalties wow someone might pay you a few cents for your ballot “
1. Criminals aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed. They commit blatant crimes all the time with the potential penalty outweighing the benefit
2. These crimes are not prosecuted in blue cities with blue police chiefs and blue DAs. Everyone is in on it.

If it were so easy why don't you do it?
1. It’s illegal
2. I’m not part of an inner city “community” where this takes place
If its so blatant why don't you report it?
1. No one I know has anything to do with this illegal activity
Try to sell your ballot next election.
1. No thanks

Here’s another piece of the ballot harvesting scam. All these drop boxes, ostensibly set up for CoVid safety, became the way harvesters turned in ballots. This video from Georgia shows one instance of a harvester dropping off ballots. There are dozens of these videos from Georgia representing thousands of ballots.

In Phoenix, 10% of the homes currently listed for sale are owned by Open Door, the real estate investor. In the last couple years, 33% of homes sold went to investors like Open Door.
It’s another sign that the real estate bubble is bursting. The investors are trying to sell before prices collapse.

About a hundred years ago, the Ivy League was a powerhouse in college athletics. Do you know what schools currently have the wealthiest alumni ? The Ivy League.
In the era of NIL, it’s possible that Harvard and Yale could once again compete for national titles. It’s a crazy world we live in.

^ There was a ballot harvester arrested in Ilhan Omar’s mostly Somali district in Minnesota a couple years ago. That case revealed how it worked. Word went out in the community that you could bring the extra ballots that arrived in your mailbox to the harvester and he would pay $X for each ballot. He had purchased hundred of ballots before being caught.

“this decision was all ABOUT the NIL max money..“
I didn’t know there was a max on NIL. Isn’t the whole point of NIL that that NCAA can’t regulate it ?

When President Biden ordered all 600 federal agencies to “expand citizens’ opportunities to register to vote and to obtain information about, and participate in, the electoral process” on March 7, 2021, Republican politicians, Constitutional scholars, and election integrity specialists began to worry exactly what was up his sleeve.
The administration has refused Congress request for information about this order. We know 2 things. The Executive Branch has no authority to intervene in this manner ( that’s reserved to Congress and the State Legislatures under the Constitution ) and no less than 7 major agencies are carrying out vote drives and other initiatives using our tax dollars.

The pattern of technology acceptance is always the same. Slow. Slow. Slow. A little faster. Then, holy shit, everyone wants one. We’re just now entering the phase where it’s a little faster for EVs. I’m guessing that 2024 will be the holy shit phase.

Building software to control a car automatically on an interstate: straightforward.
Building software to control a car in an urban environment with pedestrians, bikes, jaywalkers, construction detours, parking garages, pot holes, etc: 100 times harder.
We’re about 1% of the way toward a truly autonomous car. Give it another 20 years.

US Manufacturing PMI fell dramatically to 52.4 in June 2022 from 57 in May. This drop is well below the market and economic expectations of 56, and now points to the slowest growth and steepest drop in factory activity in almost two years. Contractions in output and new orders are pushing the index down.
Production and new sales declined for the first since the depths of the pandemic in mid-2020 driven by weak consumer demand. Inflation and a drop in wholesale and retail purchases have lowered purchase orders.

As a practical matter, the New York law meant that gun permits were only given to people who were politically connected with democrats.

I don’t drive a lot of miles so, from an economic standpoint, EVs make no sense. The payback period for the EV vehicle, in terms of energy cost saved, is literally 30 years.
Still, I think it’s likely I’ll buy an EV in the next few years just because some of the new EVs coming out in 2024 are pretty cool.

It would be interesting to see a correlation of
- People concerned about manmade climate change
- EV buyers
It’s my guess there is a strong correlation. Right now, EVs are more expensive and less convenient. If not for environmental concerns, the only people buying EVs would be the minority that always buy the newest tech toys.

“Not a single shred of real proof”
There is lots of proof. States like California mailed out ballots to everyone on the voter rolls. Go look it up.
There are videos from Georgia of people dropping off stacks of ballots at drop boxes. And those same people did that multiple times. All on video.
But, if you get all your news from liberal media, you didn’t know that.

In 2020, several states mailed ballots to everyone who was registered to vote. Dead people. People who had moved. Some apartment addresses got 10, or more, ballots. Ballot harvesters bought these ballots, then filled them in, and deposited them in drop off boxes, a hundred at a time.
That’s how cheating happened.
