Hey, I read that book!

Guardian: Mass Immigration is Easing the Transition to a Climate Friendly Low Birthrate Future
The Guardian thinks immigrants from poor countries will be happy to take care of the old folk in rich countries who chose not to have kids. Or maybe robots will sort it all out.

Turns out it doesn’t work that way.

Demography is destiny. In the 22nd century European deathbed demographics have turned the continent over to the more fertile Moslems. Atheism in Europe has been exterminated. Homosexuals are hanged, stoned or crucified. Such Christians as remain are relegated to dhimmitude, a form of second class citizenship. They are denied arms, denied civil rights, denied a voice, and specially taxed via the Koranic yizya. Their sons are taken as conscripted soldiers while their daughters are subject to the depredations of the continent’s new masters.

It’s SF, and will surely piss off the Lefties… So not for everyone’s taste. But I think Kratman called it correctly.

Oh, great. The Revelations/numerology spammer is back.

This one started a year or two ago, and it comes in waves. They hit every site I admin. Sometimes just a couple of spam comments per site per day. Sometimes twenty or thirty. They’re pushing an actual Revelations/numerology/conspiracy book.

What makes the comments so bad is that they are huge; thousands of words. I suspect they’re actual chapters from the book.

It’s annoying because I like to check the spam folder for mistakenly flagged, real comments before hitting the delete button. But that’s difficult when I have to scroll through thousands and thousands and thousands of lines of utter crap. When this idiot strikes, I just sigh and hit the “empty spam” button. If anything real was there, well, that’s where your legit comment went.

Lemme go check my other sites.

Pondering Elections Audits

Fulton County officials fight tooth and nail, filing motion after motion, to prevent any real audit of ballots.

DItto Maricopa County, where they fought and — mostly — lost, so shifted to lyinn g about the audit process and techniques. Guess what; you don’t have to believe — the procedures are poste publicly. I read them and was even more favorably impressed than I expected.

And of course, aftet admitting that their election network was compromised and that they lacked the passwords to properly conduct their elections, Maricopa is still refusing to fully comply with the senate subpoena.

You gotta wonder why.

More than anything, watching these panic-stricken attempts to stop or discredit audits reminds me of a made-for-TV whodunnit.

You know the sort…

Perfectly healthy wife unexpectedly drops dead soon after not-so-grief-stricken hubby took out a huge life insurance policy on her. He takes the money and marries his 20-year-younger side-bimbo.

And does his best to stop, obstruct, and discredit any attmpts by the police or insurance company to investigate the untimely death.

Police do forensic exams, prove hubby’s a murderer.

Roll credits.

You’d think that folks who honestly believe they ran a fair, accurate election would welcome an outside audit, just to shut up the naysayers. Especially an audit they don’t even have to pay for.

Hey! Free vindication. Have at it!

But no; we get them doing things like ridiculing the use of ultraviolet light to inspect ballots, as if that’s an unscientific fraud. Snake oil.

I think the Secret Service would disagree. Heck, so would any bank teller or store clerk who uses a UV lamp to inspect currency. But magically it’s not supposed to work on ballots?

Forget hundreds of pages of sworn witness affidavits. Forget weird middle-of-the night ballots dumps that conveniently put the then losing candidate ahead. You can even ignore video showing workers running that same pile of ballots through the scanner multiple times without clearing the count between runs.

The urgent need to not have an audit does more to convince me that there was, at the very least, major malfeasance, if not misfeasance.

In a rare case of noticing those two…

Population Control Charity Awards Meghan and Harry for ‘Enlightened Decision’ to Have Only Two Children
Meghan Markle and her husband Prince Harry have been presented with a “special award” from a pro-population control charity for their commitment to only have two children.

I’d have preferred that they stopped at zero.

Maricopa County: A Pertinent Question, and More News

The Gateway Pundit asked a pertinent question yesterday.

Arizona Audit Would Be FINISHED Already If Maricopa County Complied – Why Are They Stalling?!

What follows is pure speculation.

Getting out of the country is fast, easy. Buy a ticket, get on the plane, and go.

Getting out with your assets intact and accessible takes a lot more time. I can imagine a lot of account activity at financial institutions handling the Board of Supervisors’ assets. Accounts closed out, money shifting through various shells… It takes time.

Moving on to a related report:

Arizona Senate Conducting New Count of Maricopa County Ballots
The ballots cast in Arizona’s largest county in the 2020 election will be counted for a third time on orders from the state’s Senate.

Nearly 2.1 million ballots submitted in Maricopa County for the presidential contest were tabulated, as normal, by election officials. They were recounted by hand by audit teams hired by the Arizona Senate in a process that was completed late last month.

Now the Senate will do its own recount that will provide a number to compare to those from the county and from the auditors.

We’ve heard unofficial, and anecdotal, reports that the auditors were finding significant discrepancies in the number of ballots documented as being in boxes and the number of ballots actually found in them.

That the Senate is buying more gear to do their own third count of the physical ballots implies the discrepancy is real, and pretty bad. Sounds as if the Senate is getting their ducks in a row.

Just remember this magic number: 2,089,563

This should be very interesting.

Gropin’ Joe fired the Social Security commissioner.

U.S. President Joe Biden on Friday fired Social Security Commissioner Andrew Saul, a holdover from the Trump administration, but Saul told the Washington Post he plans to be at work on Monday morning because his term isn’t over.

Let’s say this goes to court. Any presidentially-appointed-for a specific term (life) judge has to think, Gee, what if I was appointed by the prez’s opposing-party predecessor? If I let this fly, will he fire me, too?

And if the firing is upheld… Well, you know the Democrats want Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer to resign, so they can appoint a younger left-winger to extend Dem influence farther into the future.

Breyer, you’re fired.

Added: Looks like there’s quite a bit of — sometimes conflicting — case law on the subject. TL;DR: He couldn’t do it to a judge, but firing a commissioner is a can of worms.

Added, 2: As expected.

‘A Bolt Of Lightning No One Expected’: Fired Trump Appointee Pledges To Sue Biden
“I consider myself the term-protected Commissioner of Social Security,” Saul told The Washington Post. He added that he will attempt to log in to work remotely on Monday, and threaten to sue if he can not do so.

Best One So Far

Folks have been having a lot of fun with the FBI citing the Lego Capitol in one of the 1/6 “insurrection” cases.

Babylon Bee takes first place this morning.

We need a Protection of Lawful Commerce in Legos Act.

Kneepads Harris lives in a very sheltered, privileged world.

Get this. Makes you wonder how long it’s been since she’s had to do something so plebeian as making her own copies.

Harris: Voter ID Could Mean People Have to Copy ID and Send It In and People Live in Areas Where There Isn’t a Kinko’s or OfficeMax
“I don’t think that we should underestimate what that could mean. Because in some people’s mind, that means, well, you’re going to have to Xerox or photocopy your ID to send it in to prove that you are who you are. Well, there are a whole lot of people, especially people who live in rural communities, who don’t — there’s no Kinko’s, there’s no OfficeMax near them.

I suppose they could go to a library, which typically have copiers available. And I still see them in big stores. And offhand, I can’t remember any nondeployment work location that didn’t have a photocopier available somewhere; I would expect that most employers would be willing to let their employees use it for something as important as a civic duty to vote.

Or one could ask a friend or neighbor who has a combo scanner/printer. Personally, I have two; both scrounged when people upgraded and threw the old ones away. That’s how common the things are. These are flatbed scanners, so I sold my old roller feed scanner at a yard sale, for five bucks if I recall correctly.

County or city clerks might do it, too. I’ve gotten copies made that way.

In more than 40 years, I’ve always been able to get to a copier when needed. It used to be that I might have to drive somewhere, or walk a few blocks. But these days, one is sitting on my desk beside me.

If folks can somehow manage to copy their annual tax paperwork (they do keep file copies, right?), I figure they can manage one more copy once every couple of years.

Added: And who uses the term “xerox” anymore? That’s the first time I’ve heard it in years. And Kinko’s?

There hasn’t been a “Kinko’s” for 15 years. And 13 years since it was even Fedex Kinko’s.

Has she made a copy herself since she was blowing Willie Brown?

Wait for it…

I saw this headline and immediately thought, “Yep.”

Grizzly bear still on the loose after pulling woman from tent, killing her in Montana; victim identified as nurse from California

Tent? Check.

California? Check? And as expected…

“The approximately 400-pound grizzly first awakened the campers about 3 a.m., officials said. They took food out of their tents, secured it and went back to sleep, they said.”

Food in the tent. In bear country. Knew it. Folks, in bear country, I don’t keep food in my camp, much less my tent. Even if it isn’t bear country, almost everywhere is ant country.

Weather Alert Reporting Could Be Better

A tornado in my area.

Specifically, it was spotted maybe as far as a quarter mile from my house. Fortunately, it was moving away from here, because by the time I tracked down the location (News4Jax reported it, but based their report on a tweet about a twister in Jacksonville… an hour before), it was headed towards Brunswick.

So that wasn’t rolling thunder after all.

I miss the old Civil Defense sirens. And my weather alert radio never did go off.

Added, 7/8/2021: And the EMS phone warnings finally came in 2 hours after the tornado was confirmed.
