“More Open Threads! More Open Threads!”

by Darryl — Sunday, 8/11/24, 11:43 am

Having my morning coffee and cracking open the newspaper….

Hacked!. Let’s see…I am trying to remember how it goes—something like, “Iran, if you are listening….”

Oh…and then there’s this—Swifties are organizing for Kamala:

…Swifties are figuring out voter registration requirements in every state where there’s a swift concert, making QR codes with voter registration and donation links so people can do both at her concerts….”

Yeah…don’t panic, Трампistas. Just give them a healthy dose of your usual insults and denigration.

Speaking of insults and denigration, a couple of headlines from today: “Donald Trump Privately Rants That Kamala Harris Is a ‘B***h’ as His Polls Plunge” and Vibes matter: Трамп can hardly restrain his jealousy over the Harris campaign’s joy. SAD!

A writer puts things into a British perspective in his description of Трамп.

NPR fact-checked Трамп’s emergency news conference from last Thursday. They found “at least 162 misstatements, exaggerations and outright lies in 64 minutes.” And, yes, the article enumerates and factually debunks all 162 statements.

Last week Elon Musk filed an anti-trust lawsuit against a marketing trade body and the advertisers who were “boycotting” Xitter. Apparently, Musk’s strategy has consequences: more advertisers are fleeing the ailing platform. I’m no lawyer, but if “corporations are people, my friends,” aren’t they fully entitled to First Amendment protections of freedom to assemble and freedoms on matters of conscience? Also, Musk did tell advertisers unhappy with Xitter to “not advertise” and instead “go fuck yourselves,” so this is really just performative litigation that is backfiring on Musk. So sad.

    Why would Americans like
    – Surveillance of pregnant women,
    – rebrand HHS as the “Department of Life”,
    – a national abortion ban,
    – refuse to certify election results,
    – install party zelots in high levels of government. (It so weird how that’s how conservatives used to describe the evils of a communist government, where bureaucrats were chosen for their party loyalty, not merit or skills. It’s like they want to be communists. )

    Democrat Josh Stein leading Mark Robinson 46% to 36% in the race for governor
    It’s understandable. It was fine for Mark Robinson’s wife to chose to get an abortion, but he doesn’t want women now to have that choice.
    Robinson complains that red tape made it difficult for his wife to manage a day care, but he has demanded more intrusive state regulation of what teachers can and can’t say in the classroom.
    Robinson rails against “government ‘charity,’” but his wife’s nonprofit took $57,000 in Paycheck Protection Program cash.
    Robinson preaches fiscal conservatism, but declared personal bankruptcy three times.
    Robinson laments being bullied by classmates as a child for being poor but doesn’t seem to empathize with other marginalized people, including LGBTQ people.
    Robinson says it’s time to “start reading” quotes from fascist strongmen like Hitler and Stalin.
    Is it any wonder Robinson is a loser like trump?

    And what he says are all fine sentiments. But still, the Brits aren’t all that great, either. Colonialism, brutal wars against native populations, Irish repression, modern-day racism, classism, clinging to monarchy, all that. So, they’re not exactly a model to emulate. Preferable to Trump, though. Even the French are preferable to Trump.

    Musk is bringing SLAPP lawsuits. He’s acting like a developer who attends a public hearing on his plans, then sues every citizen who spoke against it. In short, he’s being the asshole everybody already knows he is.

    These lawsuits likely are utterly without merit, but they cost money to defend against, and that’s their purpose. It could backfire the way you suggest: Who’s going to advertise on a platform with a reputation for suing advertisers who leave?

    The single most overwhelming characteristic of today’s Republican Party is that everything they claim to stand for is empty words. Their leader is as far removed from family values and respect for the military as it’s possible to get. Crime? Their leader is a criminal. Immigration? Their leader employs cheap immigrant labor at his golf courses and private Florida sex club. A businessman who’ll set the economy right? All his businesses are financial failures.

    If a Trump-supporting veteran tells me Walz did a terrible thing by saying he “carried a weapon of war,” and I ask him about Trump’s draft dodging and he brushes me off or walks away, that’s a veteran I’m going to ignore.

    Twenty years ago, I reached out via email to a veteran who served as a lieutenant in my Army unit in Vietnam. Old war buddies reconnecting, you know. He sent me a picture of a dog peeing on a Kerry yard sign. He never heard from me again.

    Veterans are a brotherhood, but only to a point. Political assholery destroys relationships among veterans just as it does among families. It’s one thing to be a passionate supporter of a party or candidate, but being a shithead about it is a colossal turnoff.

    This is why swiftboating Walz will be resonate among MAGA veterans, but won’t get traction among non-MAGA veterans. Attacking a veteran over something as trivial as that is offensive to everyone else.

    There’s a backstory to the swiftboating of Kerry that most civilians don’t understand. Kerry was an officer who got a Silver Star, a fairly high-level valor award. Few enlisted grunts (or swift boat crewmen) got Silver Stars for their battlefield exertions.

    In the Vietnam war there was a class distinction, call it discrimination, in the award of medals. Officers wanted medals to advance their careers. Officers made medal recommendations and approved medals. It wasn’t hard to get a fellow officer to sign off on your medal paperwork. For this reason, medals like Kerry’s Silver Star were considered a joke in the ranks.

    Meanwhile, the grunts were overlooked at headquarters, and underappreciated or outright rejected by civilian society back home. Naturally there was a feeling that many former officers didn’t earn their medals. Some also took Kerry’s antiwar activism as a slap in the face. The resulting resentment played out in the attacks on Kerry’s military service. Politics, of course, played a role in this, too; but it wasn’t just politics, it had origins in how the “real heroes” were mistreated on and off the battlefield.

    With the overall better treatment of veterans today, tapping into this resentment probably is less potent today, but some of it still lingers. Kerry was “swiftboated” during the heat of the Gulf War debates, but veterans of that conflict came home to a far better experience than Vietnam veterans did, and that took a lot of the sting out of it. But the lingering resentments among those who were overlooked never completely went away.

    I can think of two cases in point that exemplify how Vietnam soldiers were treated. During the battle of Dak To, Pfc. John Barnes threw himself on an enemy grenade to save wounded comrades. His battalion colonel refused to recommend him for any medal, saying “men who commit suicide don’t deserve medals.” Higher headquarters thought otherwise, and Barnes was timely awarded a Medal of Honor, presented to his family by President Nixon.

    The other is James McLoughan, a medic who repeatedly carried out rescues under fire of wounded men from the kill zone, despite being wounded several times himself, and refused evacuation because the unit would’ve been left without a medic. For fifty years, the only recognition he received for his heroism was a Bronze Star, the lowest medal for valor. Obama’s secretary of defense was instrumental in getting McLoughan the Medal of Honor he deserved, which was presented to him by Trump.

    Favoritism, and neglecting the troops in the ranks, is where resentment of false valor or “stolen valor” comes from. When Dan Quayle, who only served in the National Guard, put a “Vietnam Veteran” sticker on his briefcase, he was shamed into taking it off. Walz, too, was a National Guardsman who didn’t see combat, and although his embellishment of his service is slight, it pushes buttons.

    It would be a mistake to write off the attacks on his service as purely partisan, even though they’re politically motivated, because there really is a reservoir of resentment among veterans against those who “weren’t there.” Vance gets a pass partly because of partisanship, but also partly because he served on a battlefield, even though he wasn’t a combat soldier and didn’t see combat.

    I’m not writing this as a justification of the attacks on Walz’s service. His 24 years of National Guard service isn’t trivial, and merits respect by all. I’m just stating the way things are, the reality of what exists, and why his service claims provoke some veterans who don’t like his politics to begin with.

    Comparing service is an exercise in futility even among service members serving in the same ranks, units, and conflicts.

    The more time that passes, the more futile the exercise.

AFU forces in Kursk oblast are currently fortifying strategic positions they hold to the north, processing thousands of surrendering Russian POWs and establishing administrative control over the civilian population left unprotected by the Russian state.

    20,

    Governor Walz voluntarily extended his service four years past his earliest full retirement. Most enlisted service members of that era retired as soon as possible. Since 911 it’s grown more complicated because of re-enlistment bonuses, educational bonuses, training opportunities and bonuses, and many new opportunities for advancement in rank. But in 2001 when Walz first qualified for full retirement none of that stuff existed. In fact, it’s probably fair to say that those who served during those decades got the worst pay and benefits available in the all-volunteer era.

    But when asked, and like quite a lot of other senior NCOs at the time, he willingly extended for another four years to help with the anticipated post 9/11 buildup. These guys in their 40s, with young families, mortgages, and civilian careers were offered absolutely nothing in return for that.

    On Saturday, when his 757 nicknamed “Trumpforce One” was denied landing in Bozeman because of previously unpaid landing fees, and diverted to Billings, the 78-year-old convicted felon changed to a Gulfstream 550 jet to make the connecting leg of travel, which caused a 90 minute delay in the itinerary.

    The aircraft bore the tail registration numbers N550GP. FAA records show that the aircraft bearing these tail registration numbers was previously registered as N212JE. N212JE was previously owned by convicted serial pedophile and international child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. It was purchased from the estate liquidation of Jeffrey Epstein in 2020 by a close friend of the 78-year-old convicted felon.

    There are no current filings on record to indicate a campaign donation of the use of the sex-crime associated Gulfstream jet, nor any expense filings indicating campaign payment for its use by the candidate. In 2021 the owner filed a lawsuit against the Epstein estate for failing to disclose during the sale that it had been previously employed in the ongoing conduct of an international criminal child sex ring.

    Owners and insurance experts estimate the costs of the damage exceeded $500 [million] dollars, making it the second-costliest civil disturbance in U.S. history.

    The area most impacted was a 5-mile stretch of Lake Street in south Minneapolis, containing mostly mom and pop businesses, many minority or immigrant owned.

    With his campaign running out of funding, no scheduled events, having lost the free media cycle to his opponents, and in a polling freefall, much is being made right now of the 78-year-old convicted felon’s “guerilla-style” outreach to young toxic males through “influencers”.

    Apparently the kids failed to read the memo.

    A brand new youth poll from the director of Harvard’s Institute of Politics now shows a thirteen point shift among 18 to 29-year-olds since last month in favor of Vice President Harris, who now leads by 9.

    Never fear, MAGA-tards. Some Canadian TikTok influencer you’ve never heard of with zero FEC filings is announcing a “$20 million” campaign soon to be launched “Send the Vote“, to excite young toxic incel males with more tales of sofa sex and cartoonish misogyny. Nothing on the ground yet. And registration deadlines are looming. But a “cool” TikToker from Ontario is on it.

    Hey look, a peaceful protest is happening at THIS location while looting is happening at a completely different location. We need to bust it up because it MIGHT get out of hand. (Ask SPD how well that works)

    The “deleted” video starts about 26 minutes into the ‘live’ broadcast where at several times the Anchors refer to how the National Guard disbursed a protest in one area only to have the protesters reform in another.

    So riddle me this? How can Governor Walz be doing nothing when he’s already sent the National Guard? It is being reported live in that very same ‘deleted’ video that the Guard is on the ground in Minneapolis. But according to “GOP Hype Man” who Dumbfuck doesn’t question, they weren’t there because Walz took no action.

    You don’t even see how this proves that National Guard was called up earlier?

    I do, actually. When Mayor Frey asked for the Guard to be called up, Walz blew him off for a day,

    They show that at 6:28 p.m. Wednesday, Frey’s spokesman, Mychal Vlatkovich, texted a small group of employees in the mayor’s office: “Mayor just came out and said the chief wants him to call in the national guard for help at Third Precinct. Mayor appears intent on doing.” Frey’s policy director, Heidi Ritchie, later updated the group: “He called the governor just now.”

    In a separate text conversation later Wednesday night, Vlaktovich said Frey indicated “Walz was hesitating.”

    Frey said he received no confirmation the National Guard was coming the rest of Wednesday night or the following morning.

    and then called up a wholly inadequate number. So few that the next night, Thursday, there were only 90 National Guard in Minneapolis.

    Walz activated the National Guard at 2:30 p.m. Thursday May 28. But eight hours later, only 90 National Guard soldiers were on the ground across the Twin Cities. By that time, officers had already evacuated the Third Precinct after it was besieged by protesters.

    It took another two days for enough Guard members to show up and calm things down. First request Wednesday. Enough to quell the disturbance Saturday.

    That’s two full days of looting, rioting, and arson enabled by Cut and Run Walz.

    I’d like to thank you, Hops, for the opportunity to expand and explain, in detail, just how weak Cut and Run Walz’ response to the crisis was.

    Because conservatives and Evangelicals are stupid and reactionary and someone needs to know things and be smart.

    The Winged Victory of Samothrace, or the Niké of Samothrace, is a votive monument originally found on the island of Samothrace, north of the Aegean Sea. It is a masterpiece of Greek sculpture from the Hellenistic era, dating from the beginning of the 2nd century BC (190 BC). It is composed of a statue representing the goddess Niké (Victory), whose head and arms are missing and its base is in the shape of a ship’s bow.

    The incredibly famous work is in the Louvre and among other things is the inspiration for Rolls Royce’s hood ornament. It’s also the French being French and thumbing their nose at the Greeks at the Olympics as Greece has been demanding the works’ return.

    Maybe we should attack Vance for not extending. After all, the minute his enlistment expired, he was gone. A couple months later he was going to college on the G.I. Bill; that’s what was in it for him.

    You know nothing about the military. Promotions are based on needs of the service. Always. He was a command sergeant major because they needed a CSM. He wore the rank, had the duties, and that made him a CSM, not whether he finished CSM school.

    When I volunteered for the Army Reserve after Vietnam, I knew a guy who went to Vietnam as a private, was thrown into intense combat, and very soon was a captain commanding the remains of his company. He didn’t go to West Point, ROTC, or OCS. He was field-commissioned an officer based on the needs of the service, which at that time and place were immediate and acute. The Army can do that. No law says it can’t. Only a REMF never-served like you imagines otherwise.

    The Trump campaign also noted that a police officer testified in 2020 that she had heard “thirdhand” that Mr. Walz had said to “give up the precinct”; at the time, a spokesman for Mr. Walz disputed that characterization.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/09/us/politics/tim-walz-fact-check.html

    What is “third hand”? Hearsay upon hearsay. Who was that officer? Anna Hedberg. The governor’s office called bullshit on her claims, too:

    “I was in the command post and I heard it. I heard the governor say, ‘Give it up,'” Hedberg, a Minneapolis Police Federation director, told senators. “Wasn’t directly to me. It was through a phone call of how the governor says, ‘Give up the precinct.’ In an interview after her testimony, Hedberg told FOX 9 she heard the information “third-hand.” She declined to name her source. Seconds after Hedberg made her comments in the Senate hearing, a Walz spokesman texted to say, “that’s not true.” The governor never called the Minneapolis Police Department command center and did not given any orders to police during the unrest, he said.

    Working there was a nightmare. Temperatures in the greenhouses commonly reached triple digits. Workers complained of a lack of water breaks and inadequate safety gear. Some were carted off in ambulances.

    “Despite promising local jobs, the company eventually began contracting migrant workers from Mexico, Guatemala and other countries” — who were sequestered out of sight when politicians like Mitch McConnell toured the facility.

    “On the campaign trail this summer, Vance has promoted an agenda of economic prosperity. During his speech at the Republican National Convention, he talked about his personal record of starting businesses ‘to create jobs in the kinds of places that I grew up in’ and what he called the need to ‘stand up for’ American businesses.” Former employees of this company say that’s bullshit.

    For the record, I actually preferred amphetamines as my drugs of choice. The History Channel did a program about me and my drug use.

    I liked to “grind my teeth and feel better!”

    Trump’s declaration last night that in the event that he loses the election in November he will flee the jurisdiction to a non-extradition countty should be grounds for Judge Merchan to at a minimum seize his passport and increase his release bond.

    Bragg should file a motion immediately.

    The entire balance of the Xitter platform was fully operating with no bandwidth problems and no denial of account access throughout the free campaign advertisement that Elmo arranged last night.

    The only part of Xitter suffering any technical issues during the stream were the streaming platform servers.

    When Elmo says the platform was targeted by hackers he is lying again.

    Only the streaming platform crashed.
    Because it’s shit.
    And it’s shit because Elmo is an emotionally crippled nepo-baby who fired all the engineers.

    @138 “Roger, what is your evidence that serial fabricator and weird cult member Tulsi Gabbard is on any list?”

    That’s a very good question. Answer: Because she’s the sort of person who gets put on watch lists, and all the squealing transforms it from a latent suspicion to an overt assumption.

    A wise, thoughtful Democrat can make better use of their time than to elevate and promote the paranoid ravings of serial liars and poseurs like Gabbard or Taibi.

    Happiness means what WE SAY!

    When the Founders spoke of “pursuit of Happiness,” what they meant might be understood today as in essence “pursuit of Blessedness.” That is, an individual must be free to live as his Creator ordained- to flourish. Our Constitution grants each of us the liberty to do not what we want, but what we ought. This pursuit of the good life is found primarily in family-marriage, children, Thanksgiving dinners, and the like.

    @161 How does Trump’s expressed interest in obtaining legal asylum in Venezuela not compromise his ability to conduct foreign policy involving that adversarial state?

    If he’s elected president again, I think it’s reasonable to presume his policy toward Venezuela and Maduro will be colored by his desire to keep his personal asylum options open.

    In particular, he may be tempted to offer Madura’s illegitimate government recognition, support, and lifting of sanctions in exchange for a promise of asylum should he need it.

    This beyond his natural sympathy for authoritarians who steal elections, which he himself readily relates to.

    GOP Senate candidate is suing TV stations for running a Democratic PAC ad accusing him of sheltering his wealth from taxes. Good. That exposes his financial dealings to discovery.

    167,

    Which media?

    Other than Taibi, I’ve seen Gabbard’s paranoid rant repeated in only three or four places, and always in the context of a news bot algorithm auto repeating Taibi with zero independent journalism.

    If you intend to blame the source then name the source. What is your media source?

    172,

    If that’s going to be your ultimate response, that you intend to spend your time here, like the Village Idiot, routinely passing along right-wing nut-o-sphere bullshit for lulz, then you can expect to see it beaten down just like this Gabbard bullshit.

    She made it up. Taibi reported it in a fucking substack. A few bots and one or two Sinclair stations published it to their webpages.

    And you fell for it.

    There is no TSA list that Gabbard could reference. There is no evidence. There is no corroboration. She’s nuts.
    She’s hungry for attention. And she’s part of an attention economy that preys on fools, dipshits, and bots.

    Which one are you?

    The elderly criminal in mental decline lied about Plagiarism Script generated images of Vice President Harris’s crowds when the crowds were real, when HE promoted a Plagiarism Script generated image back in January 25, 2024 with too much soft focus, overly-cinematic lighting, and an anatomically incorrect number of digits. Praying. In a Church. A dead give way right there of a fake image.

    @173 I used Hawaii news sources (2 TV stations and a newspaper) reposted by Yahoo News and MSN) and The Hill. Of course, you’d also find it on Fox and the usual rightwing suspects, but I give such sources no credence. The story seems to have originated with a Canadian investigative journalism blog of indeterminate political bias or reputability.

    @174 “There is no TSA list that Gabbard could reference.”

    She referenced TSA’s “Quiet Skies” program. This is how TSA describes it:

    https://www.tsa.gov/blog/2018/08/22/facts-about-quiet-skies

    Conde Nast did an article on “Quiet Skies” several years ago:

    https://www.cntraveler.com/story/how-tsa-quiet-skies-program-tracks-us-passengers

    The fact the program she referenced exists doesn’t prove she’s on a list, but her extensive foreign travel and contacts would make her a candidate for observation. If you ask me, she should be under observation.
