Men’s Life in Three Pictures:
ANY QUESTIONS?++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
We just returned from our camping trip. This is Lynn's commentary:
Off we went with Abby and family to a campsite in Hollywood, FL near Daniel and family...it was a lot of trial & error and certainly a new experience for us...we arrived at campsite and unbeknownst were not allowed in after 5:00...that did not work for our 7:00 arrival! So off to Daniel’s...luckily the camper was allowed in their gated community and there was a place to park! Succot dinner was prepared by Tammy and was terrific. However, because of the rain, we couldn’t enjoy dinner in the Sukkah. Tammy had already offered me the guest bedroom in case the camper didn’t work so I invited Dick to join me...the kids had also planned to spend the night with Stella....so now to get Abby & Brian situated ...luckily, Tammy’s brother in Law and family joined(along with Anica & David) for dinner and offered them a bed....the next morning Brian set up camp...not exactly what they expected but the day was dreary so we spent it at Daniel’s...breakfast, lunch and dinner included! Lucky us to have such great food! Then we headed to campsite.... and some pictures.
Time for bed in our “pop out” room, Blake in the couch turned into bed, 2nd pop out closet and bedroom, Dagny with Mom on the dining table turned into bed and us and the grandkids.
Fun & lots of laughs!
Next morning breakfast and walk around camp which also had slips for beautiful and ocean going large yachts...many campers looked as if set up for “the season” or permanent park living
... lots of wildlife To be seen....Brian closed it all up then off we went!
Here’s to next time after a great learning experience!

I know very little about propaganda though I have read several books on counterintelligence and did attend a class on same by one of Israel's top Professors in that field.
I do know, when I entered the service, a Captain gave a lecture and as I listened I knew it was all BS but, being an officer, the entire audience felt intimated sat and sucked it up. At the end he revealed who he was and what he was doing. I assume the key to propaganda is reverse the truth or what is an established fact then repeat the hell out of it. If you can do so in a menacing environment or method all the better.
This is why I found a recent article interesting. It told about Seattle teachers telling students to call rioters "freedom fighters."
America's soft-underbelly has always been education. Minds are there to be molded and influenced. Feed them a mush curriculum and you get mushy thinking and that phenomena has extended from grade school all the way up the ladder through college and graduate studies.
What is a better intimidating environment than the class room full of students paying enormous sums to make good grades so they can get even better jobs. They are given those grades by professors who are more interested in getting them to regurgitate than reason. The liberal arts are more conducive than say engineering because, structurally speaking, propaganda will not provide the basis for sustaining a foundation.
Once you have a nation that has supped generously on propaganda, and for an extended period, you basically have that society by the scrotum and it becomes increasingly pliable. Add intimidation and/or physical threat and you still voices even further.
Another key/useful ingredient is students who tend to be guilt feeling tender hearts (liberally inclined, progressive in posture) and the wealthier the better because they have something to give and still have a pile left over.
In America, a superb combustible is our economic success interspersed with a history of racial abuse which Marxists, like BLM, can manipulate.
Second, America's societal freedom allows those of wealth to finance their evil intent using the very laws they wish to destroy as fuel. Use free speech to destroy free speech. Use the right to freely protest to spread chaos. Take an incidence, portrayed by the mass media, of a questionable police occurrence, before facts are revealed, and you can defy law and order and eventually seek the defunding of those who serve and protect.
Finally, the more gullible, insecure and unknowing the society the more intimidation works. This is why the destruction of one's history, the counter culture crap, is so relevant and fits hand in glove with the goals of the anarchists.
Welcome to America - 2020. Welcome to Biden's world. Welcome to the Democrat Party.

Here are other observations for their prurient interest.
I used to think Megyn Kelly was drop dead gorgeous. Then I witnessed another side of her when she was a debate monitor. My entire view of her physical beauty changed and yet, I know, she is still beautiful. Is that another version of the influence of propaganda or does it have anything to do with the word?
When she did something I deemed unfair, I concluded her motive was purposeful so, I replaced her physical beauty with something of verbal substance.
Conversely, when I see someone less endowed with beauty say something beautiful that person becomes enhanced in my eyes.
I guess imagery relates to the whole package.
Finally: I once had the opportunity to go to the San Diego Republican convention and sit in a private box of the friend who helped arrange/plan it all. At the time, I was smitten with Bo Dereck. Lynn wanted to go but I felt it would be inappropriate because we were not big deals and it would be a lot of free loading among people I don't necessarily relate to so we stayed home and watched.
Lo and behold, we would have been sitting , the entire time, with Bo and when I found out she was conservative I moved her to an11.
She also is tiny, 5 feet and now in her 70"s I believe. Still lives on Dereck's ranch, loves horses etc.

Biden is a sleaze who accuses others of doing what he does. He is a typical establishment swamp rat and will stop at nothing. He belongs in the Democrat Party and should feel very much at home there and recently admitted he is the party:
Biden Emerges as a Country-Club Snob, Hypocrite
Of all the possible criticisms for Vice President Biden to lob at President Trump in the closing weeks of the presidential campaign, the Democrat has settled on the complaint that the admissions policies at Mr. Trump’s country clubs are too restrictive.
“He’s the same guy who lets you earn a couple bucks parking cars at his country club, but even if you had the money, he wouldn’t allow you to join,” Mr. Biden complained about Mr. Trump during a September 30 campaign appearance in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.
In remarks the campaign had prepared for the candidate’s delivery at the event and distributed in advance, Mr. Biden said, “Look, I’ve dealt with guys like Trump my whole life. Guys who look down on you because they’ve got a lot of money. Guys who think they’re better than you. Guys who might let you park their car at the country club. But would never let you in.”
It’s a strange line of attack for several reasons. There is the novelty of the concept that blackballed country-club applicants nursing grievances are some kind of vast, previously undiscovered demographic category of swing voters. As if, in the midst of a pandemic, racial unrest, police violence, and substantial unemployment, what is really rankling undecided voters is that country clubs are stubbornly refusing to accept their initiation fees.
Any entry barriers that do exist have not impeded Mr. Biden himself. The Wilmington, Delaware News Journal reported in 2014 that Mr. Biden had joined the Wilmington Country Club. That club won’t let just anyone in; in 2001 it went so far as litigating a case involving a member, Louis J. Capano Jr., that it had voted to expel.
The Wilmington Country Club’s most recent tax return, filed in November 2019, reported that the non-profit, tax-exempt organization paid its general manager $435,234 in total annual compensation, its “director of grounds” $279,668, its “director of racquets” $262,808, and its executive chef $192,343.
The club’s 70-page rulebook makes clear that in the club’s dining room “jeans are never considered appropriate.” The club’s past presidents include William duPont Jr. A recent club newsletter advised existing members to search for the “next good member ... individuals who you want to sit at the bar next to you.”
Nor is the Wilmington Country Club the only such institution frequented by the vice president. As recently as October 2019, Mr. Biden held a fundraiser at Fox Hill Country Club in Pennsylvania, where dues are $5,125 a year and there is an additional $1,000 annual food and beverage minimum expenditure for members. Photos of the event show an all-white audience.
The event cost $20,000 to co-chair, $10,000 to co-host, and $2,800 for a private photo with Mr. Biden, according to an account of the event in the Citizens’ Voice of Wilkes-Barre. The newspaper article indicates that, in his speech at the country club, Mr. Biden accused Mr. Trump of “abandoning the working class.”
Mr. Biden’s accusation that Mr. Trump is the one excluding people from country clubs is inaccurate. The reality is that Mr. Trump is the one who was himself barred from clubs in Palm Beach, Florida As a result, he started one with more populist policies.
Here is how the Washington Post, which is the farthest thing from a Trump campaign organ, described it in a 2019 news article: “Trump was shut out of all the private clubs, the heart of Palm Beach social life. ... So Trump opened Mar-a-Lago as a private club in 1995. Unlike the Everglades or Bath and Tennis clubs, which did not admit Jewish members, and the Palm Beach Country Club, which admitted wealthy Jews, Mar-a-Lago was open to anyone. ‘Basically, he didn’t care who came in as long as they could pay for it,’ explains a Palm Beach social expert.”
The Washington Post article continued: “Trump’s open-door policy — his was the first club to accept African Americans and openly gay couples — began the slow process to diversify other clubs in town.”
It’s the same story in New York City, where Trump made money developing, managing, or operating mostly condominium buildings in Manhattan — apartments for people with money but without the references or pedigree or patience for co-op buildings and their arcane interview and approval processes.
As I wrote about Trump back in 2004 in The New York Sun, “There’s a contempt for Mr. Trump among certain of New York’s elites. He has unusual-looking hair and an unpolished New York accent. He’s highly leveraged, he’s in the casino business, he plasters his name on everything, and his family fortune was built on a lot of middle-income housing in Brooklyn and Queens. For an alleged billionaire, he seems to spend a lot of time either going bankrupt or narrowly staving it off.”
Mr. Biden’s attempt to portray Trump as some kind of old-money elitist is, like so much else about the Biden campaign, phony. If it’s the best Mr. Biden can do, the former vice president may find himself on Inauguration Day in 2021 watching the ceremony on television while drowning his sorrows at the bar at the Wilmington Country Club. Just so long as he doesn’t wear dungarees.

Finally: Biden versus Biden:
TRUMP-BIDEN RINGSIDE
By E. P. UNUM
Well, Round One of the Trump Biden Debates is in the books and it is time to go to the scorecards.
On the surface, that would seem to be a difficult task given all of the interruptions and heated arguments out forth. But, as in most fights, scoring will largely be determined by the number of effective blows landed by each contestant. In the case of Round One of the Trump-Biden Debates, when you sift through the dust and the smoke and the interruptions, the clear winner by a wide margin was President Donald Trump.
Let me explain my scorecard based on facts, not conjecture or suppositions:
1. I do not care who you are, or who you think you are, you do not call the President of the United States a “liar” or a “clown” nor do you act like a tough street hood and tell him to “shut up”. For someone who accuses President Trump of not being “Presidential” (whatever that means) these remarks on a national stage, with millions of people watching from around the country and indeed the world can hardly be considered “Presidential”.
2. Joe Biden refusing to respond to questions about packing the Supreme Court is not at all what you would expect from someone seeking to be the leader of the free world.
3. Joe Biden calling Antifa an “idea” is ridiculous on its face. Antifa is a well organized communist group with origins dating back to the fall of the Weimer Republic in Germany in the 1930’s. They have been filmed handing out weapons in our cities to burn and loot businesses and create turmoil with the objective of achieving transformative change to American society and government. They are a radical group and Joe Biden shaking his head saying “not true”, “not true” is not a sign of leadership. He gave the impression that he really is unaware of what is going on in our country.
4. With respect to the issue of Law and Order, Joe Biden could not respond to questions posed to him about why he would not even say the words “law and order” and could not name a single law and order organization who has endorsed him. Shame on Chris Wallace for pressing a ridiculous question posed to President Trump about whether he would denounce “white supremacist groups”. President Trump has denounced such groups numerous times and that is a fact.
5. I was astounded that there was no discussion whatsoever about the major peace accords reached between Israel and Arab nations in the Middle East and the fact that no such accords were ever reached in eight years of the Obama-Biden Administration.
6. Joe Biden continuously referred to President Trump as a liar. That is really rich. He is a man who has been caught in more lies and exaggerations, plagiarism, and insults directed at people than anyone I have ever seen. His entire life is built on lies and falsehoods.
7. Joe Biden flat out lied when he claimed that he and President Obama was responsible for the success our nation’s economy reached under President Trump.
8. If you listened carefully to the question posed by Chris Wallace about racism in America, Biden said that there was indeed “systemic racism” in America. But if that is the case, when did it start? Joe Biden has been in government for forty seven years and served under Barack Obama, a black President. Why didn’t he address this issue then? Where has he been for forty seven years?
9. On the issue of the economy, Biden clearly indicated that “he represents the Democratic Party and what he says is the Party’s policy”. He denied steadfastly that there was no agreement signed between himself and the Bernie Sanders led coalition. Those are bold faced lies. There are indeed numerous letters of agreement, and in particular, support for the “Green New Deal” although Biden calls it by another name. That plan calls for $100 Trillion in spending…money we do not have….and which will not generate economic returns.
But there is much more. Biden reaffirmed that he will raise taxes on Americans to the tune of $4.0 Trillion next year; that he will “on day one of his Administration, repeal all of the Trump tax cuts”; that he will increase taxes on corporations, on stock market gains, on 401-K plans….and he is going to do all this in a period where people are struggling to make ends meet and find jobs. How does this make any sense? Biden said it clearly. But no one in the media today is speaking about this. And when he rambled on about the programs he intended to launch, he spoke glowingly and great pride that his plan called for retrofitting 40 million buildings across America to make them more efficient and emit less gasses into the environment. He intends to build 500,000 electric charging stations on our highways so that electric cars can be charged on their travels. I listened carefully to this and asked myself…..at what cost? And where is the economic benefit to us? Biden clearly wants to drastically reduce the use of fossil fuels but has he thought about where all this electricity is going to come from?
Finally, on the subject of economics, Biden exclaimed that his plan of increased taxes will magically create an additional $1.0 Trillion in wealth. I have spent over forty five years in finance in the private sector and as a college professor…I would like to review those assumptions and calculations because I am scratching my head as to who “the well known financial executives and economists on Wall Street” Biden mentioned in his remarks endorsed his plan.
10. Chris Wallace asked Joe Biden why he has not spoken out against the violence that is so rampant at many of our major cities, virtually all of them democratically controlled. His response is “Hey, here’s the deal, I am not in government anymore, I am not in office….he’s the guy who needs to take action”. That was a well rehearsed defection but was also a “non-response”. When pressed by Chris Wallace about why Biden did not call governors or mayors to try to get them to take action, Biden responded again that “he is not in office”. In other words….”it’s not my job”. But it somehow it is his job to criticize and second guess the President. Not a good picture because the view is always much different from the cheap seats.
So, on balance, there was an awful lot of compelling issues that surfaced in Round One and while the pundits and newspapers have called this debate “an embarrassment for the country” I have a very different perspective. Yes, I would have liked less interruptions and argument but the substance was extremely informative, and once you get past the fog of conflict, the points made by President Trump were significant.
And:
HOW MANY REASONS
DO WE NEED?
By Hal Morris
I don't need a hundred or five hundred or a thousand reasons not to vote for Biden/Harris ticket. I need only two reasons - if that many.
First, Biden, since 1988, has been exposed many times via television clips and newsprint as a pathological liar.
There are mounds of evidence that support the conclusion that Joe Biden is a liar and plagiarizer. Let's take a look at some examples of his past track record. Biden claimed he attended the historically black college Delaware State University. If that were true, someone should tell Delaware State because a school spokesperson refutes Biden's claim.
The Director of News Service for the University, Carlos Holmes, stated that the vice-president was never a student but was on campus on two occasions for commencement speeches. Biden made his bogus claim while campaigning for the Democratic/Socialist party nomination in South Carolina earlier this year. Biden needed the black vote, so he conveniently claimed that he attended a black university to demonstrate his closeness with black voters. Evidently, Biden wasn't aware that his remarks were video recorded and a matter of record. But consistency in creating videotaped falsehoods, his mantra, enables his lies to be refuted with ease.
While being interviewed and in an exchange with a reporter in 1987, one of his most egregious of many political and career lies occurred when he claimed he received a full scholarship to attend Syracuse Law School (false). He also embellished his academic record and claimed he graduated in the top half of his law class. Untrue, he finished 76th out of a class of 85 and received no commendations or plaudits. On top of that, he claimed that he received three graduate degrees, wrong only received one. But wait, there's more!
Biden claimed he was arrested in Johannesburg, while on a trip to visit Nelson Mandela in South Africa, and that Nelson Mandela was so touched he embraced him. Upon further investigation by reporters, South African police had no record of any arrest.
Biden also fabricated another of his many enhancements, saying that he pinned a medal on a soldier who died after receiving the award while in Afghanistan. Upon investigation, no record of any such incident occurred.
In his attempt for the presidential nomination in 1988, he committed several of the most egregious examples of plagiarism. First, the public learned that he plagiarized material for a 15-page law school paper, then borrowed material for speeches without naming Hubert Humphrey, John Kennedy, and the notoriously British Labor Firebrand, Neil Kinnock, as sources. The public uproar caused him to lose the nomination. Biden is consistent in his naïvety to think that his plagiarism would remain undiscovered. One must wonder if he is naturally stupid or just works hard to obtain that level.
His almost word-for-word plagiarism of Neil Kinnock's political speech demonstrates that he lives in a cocoon separated from reality. In any case, the evidence is documented by video and shown side-by-side, and word-for-word with Kinnock's address. Kinnock is the son of a Welsh coal miner, and Biden was so enthralled with Kinnock's address he even stole his identity and referred to himself as a descendant of coal miners and the first in his family to attend college.
For the record, Biden's dad was a used-car salesperson and attended a private school. To paraphrase a popular song, Biden is not a coal miner’s son!
In a wonderful article in the National Review, Kyle Smith gave insight into Biden's pitch; ("Ignore a half-century record of dishonesty, incompetence, and wretched judgment and think only this: 'Joe is a nice guy who reaches across the aisle.' But then again, as Barack Obama reportedly said in private during this year's primaries, "Don't underestimate Joe's ability to f*** things up." (Wrong Way Joe, Kyle Smith, National Review, 9/21/20).
While none of this is new news, it does demonstrate a consistently flawed characteristic of a man desperate to achieve success at the expense of lying and plagiarizing. Next comes inconsistency!
Biden's filtration with ambiguity relates to his positions on the Iran war. In 1991 he opposed and voted against the war to liberate Kuwait, calling it folly, and predicted it would cost over 10,000 in American lives. It was successful. In the second war with Iraq, he voted for the war but had reservations, so that if it went wrong, he could have said, I told you so. The type of second-guessing people working on the line appreciate.
Flip-flop honorable mention goes to his positions on the Hyde Amendment, a legislative provision barring federal funds for abortion. Hyde banned funds for abortions except for the life-saving of mother and abortion needed for rape. For forty years, Biden strongly supported the amendment but succumbed to the left and now opposes restrictions on the use of federal funds for abortion.
When it comes to foreign policy, Bill Gates was right on target when he stated that Joe Biden was on the wrong side of every policy decision. For example, when the war cabinet was debating whether or not to give the go or abort the mission to take down Osama Bin Laden, Biden's recommendation was not to go. Biden has a habit of flip-flopping on many foreign and domestic policy decisions, and whichever decision works out, he then justified or excused his actions.
Anyone who has even been in a management or a leadership position is aware that events move fast and frequently change. Sometimes a leader must decide with only perhaps one-third of the facts available. Choosing the salient points or data upon which to decide is critical. Delaying decisions to obtain all the possible information leads to costly delays and losing the opportunity to decide. Can we imagine our President, the supreme leader on critical matters to our country, impotent waiting for all the data to make a crucial decision?
Unfortunately, Biden's actions on enriching his family were not as difficult to decide. Now for dishonesty!
Is it coincidental that when placed in charge of overseeing the U.S. occupation of Iraq, one of his brother's companies secured a $1.5 billion contract to build housing in Iraq?
How about when Joe was overseeing the U.S. response to Russian incursion into Ukraine? Hunter Biden, without any experience in energy, received a $50,000 a month contract from Burisma, a corrupt gas firm. Was that a coincidence?
What about when daddy Vice-President Joe took his son Hunter on a trip to China, where he introduced Hunter to a Chinese businessman, head of a private equity fund? Two weeks later, Hunter found himself with a 10% stake in the business, a coincidence?
Would it be far-fetched to believe that a further investigation of "following the money" would involve Biden himself?
According to Kyle Smith, a good government group dubbed Biden "one of the top five senators paying the most money in salaries or fees to family members." (Wrong Way Joe, Kyle Smith, National Review, 9/21/20.) Looking further into Joe Bidens's maneuverings, it is not tough to see that for all his attempts at being creative and cool, Joe Biden is entirely inept. He is his own worst enemy, yet he is the best candidate the Democratic /Socialist party had to run for the presidency. He seemed the safest. Now for more dishonesty!
The Senate Committee, who investigated Hunter Biden and his Burisma dealings, released its report containing information that FBI officials during the Obama/Biden administration testified under oath that they were so concerned about Hunter's questionable involvements that they personally briefed Biden. Biden had and continues to say publicly to the press that he knew nothing about Hunters' dealings. Molly Hemmingway reported on Fox News that the committee's report also noted that Hunter Biden had received a wire transfer of $3.5 million under questionable circumstances from the wife of the former Mayor of Moscow, a Putin crony.
The facts revealed help us better understand the shock, disappointment, and hateful anger because of Trump's election. The Obama/Biden administration and the "Deep State" was sure that Hillary would get elected, and all the dirty laundry would remain hidden. Biden claims he was a valuable asset to Obama and deeply involved in his administration. Now, suddenly, he seems to have forgotten the extent of his involvement. Is it any wonder why the Democrat/Socialists are so angry at Trump? He foiled their plans. He got elected!
After forty years of trying to become the Democratic standard-bearer and seventy-four years old, Biden pulled the "Devil and Daniel Webster." scenario and sold his soul to the Democratic/Socialist party's extreme left-wing. Not to secure the nomination, he already was tabbed as the best person to defeat Trump. No, he needed to secure funding and protect the left-wing from apathy and not actively working for him during the campaign. To obtain and keep the left-wing of the party in his camp, he virtually kissed the feet of Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. He endorsed their vision of a Green New Deal and a new socialistic society. Biden was now ready to support Globalism!
The Green New Deal, a brainchild of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Globalist far left and George Soros, if enacted, the center-right American Action Forum, estimated that the plan could cost between $51–$93 trillion over the next decade. They estimate its potential cost at $600,000 per household. Current projections of climate scientists and environmentalists are a savings of 1/5 of 1-degree centigrade. (American Enterprise Institute, Benjamin Zycher, 2020.) Remember, the United States only produces 15% of carbon pollution.
The Biden has proposed spending initially, according to the CBO, over $4.2 trillion for expansion of child-care, an increase of health care. His plans would cost over $11 trillion over ten years. He doesn't address the retiring baby-boomers' impact, and the projected deficits in Social Security and other entitlement programs are now operating. To financing his spending plans, he proposes the most significant tax increases in history. (Brian Riedl, The Dispatch, 9/3/20)
His plans call for carbon taxes, wealth taxes,payroll, and personal income tax increases. His finance plan also calls for significant tax hikes for business and corporate taxes and personal income taxes needed for revenue growth. Yet, economists are unsure if the revenues would cover the estimated cost, so the deficits grow and grow.
He would favor restoring the strangling regulations when repealed stimulated the economy.
You can be sure that if Biden is elected, he will surround himself with far-left liberal radicals. Their first step will be to kill the energy industry and spread California type electrical rolling blackouts throughout the country.
Biden's endorsement of the Green New Deal is an example of decision-making for the wrong reasons. On the one hand, he proclaims that he will restore our post-pandemic economy to Obama levels. He seems to forget that our economic recovery hit all-time highs with employment at high levels under Trump.
His taxation plans to fund his social programs will repress our economic recovery, leading to higher unemployment and business stagnation. Biden's plans for a healthy economy under a socialist government do not exist.
The highest office in the land and the free world leader requires a decision-maker and not a procrastinator. Anyone can make a decision. It's making the right decision in a timely fashion that counts.
There is nothing in Biden's record indicating he or Kamala Harris is a fast processer of complex data and thinks quickly to make timely critical decisions. To verify, Google the press conferences, he has trouble reading the teleprompter in answering the questions he received in advance. This is even too unbelievable to make up.
A vital segment of Biden's left-wing endorsement is the choice of Kamala Harris, a hardened far-left liberal, as his running mate. Examining her record in 2019 alone would reveal that she supported the confiscation of guns, packing the Supreme Court, abolishing the filibuster, and defending the actions of rioting and looting as necessary to send a message to the country.
This is the same Kamala Harris that denigrated Judge Kavanaugh's reputation during his nomination to the Supreme Court while she supported believing any sexual accuser regardless of the evidence.
Interestingly she forgot what she believed in and didn't support Joe Biden's accuser when she presented evidence against Joe Biden for sexual abuse.
Recently on 9/25/20, at a virtual convention of THE NAACP, Harris spoke and lavished praise on BLM. She praised the brilliance of the movement and gave it full credit for the efforts to obtain prison and justice reform. When asked to comment on Time Magazine naming the BLM leaders to the list of 100 most influential people, Harris replied, "Good for Time." Harris is aware that each of the BLM leaders, Cullors, Garza, and Tomati, are avowed and trained organizers and Marxists. She called BLM the most significant agent of change in the country. Right on, Comrade Harris!
Why Harris? First, Warren and Sanders, the leading left-wing radicals, were too controversial; Kamala Harris is an attractive light-skinned black woman and a true far left-wing liberal and Soros disciple. Harris is a globalist. Since Biden and the left-wing supporters know that they need to carry the black vote, Harris was a natural despite her lack of leadership and knowledge.
Biden is deathly afraid of Sanders's supporters staying away from the polls, like the Clinton experience in 2016. Therefore, Harris was chosen by the far-left to advance the socialist agenda and be in a position to become President if Biden is incapacitated. If Biden loses, then the party's far-left socialist wing is in a most favorable place to regain power in the party.
The issue boils down to Joe Biden's age and mental and physical capacity to survive the presidential office's rigors. This country could very well be voting for a Kamala Harris presidency and a socialist victory with Globalist implications. Not a good scenario for our future. Biden and Harris are anything but moderates despite what they falsely pretend. A vote for the Biden/Harris ticket is essentially a vote for President Harris, Globalism, and Socialism. Is that what we want? Heaven forbid!

A lot of my fellow memo readers do not like Trump, some hate him and a few wish he would die. When you ask them to explain their dislike and/or hatred they either have very little to say that is original, they start by telling me about his crudity and then it goes down hill from there. Most have not really thought through their hatred/views , they are simply emotional and respond as if they were a bull charging a red cape.
If you ask them to respond to what he has accomplished they reject facts and tend to curl up into a fetal position because it is like dropping water on fabric that is not waterproof, they just shrivel. This was sent to me by a very dear friend and fellow memo reader:
Subject: You Say You Just Don’t Like Trump
So, you say you just don’t like him.
Well, tell us – what is it about him that you dislike?Do you dislike that he directed the brokering of the first meaningful Mideast peace deal in decades?
Do you dislike that he made cruelty to animals a felony? Or don’t you care?
Do you dislike that he earmarked billions to stop the opioid crisis?
He destroyed ISIS, killed countless terrorists without going to war (even though everyone said we’d be in World War III by now) and kept the peace. Do you dislike that?
Does it bother you that we’re now energy independent and the largest producer of energy in the world?
Do you dislike him because he started to build a wall to keep criminals and drugs from coming into our country and because he respects, honors and defends our country’s borders?

This list is hardly a complete list of what President Trump has accomplished in four years.
There’s actually more – a lot more.
But hopefully, you get the idea.
Nobody is asking you to love President Trump. Nobody is asking you to be his best friend. In fact, you don’t even have to like him. But just take a moment to give this some mature thought and you’ll find that you’d be less than fair and honest if you did not recognize all that he’s accomplished for America – often against overwhelming odds and with powerful special interests aligned against him.
Is that too much to ask?
If it is then let's try this one on for size:
The IMF (International Money Fund) is warning that “ economies” will contract by $455 billion next year due to the ongoing trade conflict between the U.S., China, the EU and to a lesser extent, Japan.
President Trump will cost the “Global Economy” $455 billion…. because that money will be transferring back to the America First economy.
That’s what happens as MAG Anomics reverses the IMF trade (wealth distribution) model. China and the EU have devalued their currency in an effort to block the impacts from President Trump and the ‘America First’ trade policy. Because those currencies are pegged against the dollar, the resulting effect is a rising dollar value. In essence, the globalist IMF is now blaming President Trump for having a strong economy that forces international competition to devalue their currency.
In the bigger picture is why President Trump is the most transformative economic President in the last 75 years. The post-WWII Marshall Plan was set up to allow Europe and Asia to place tariffs on exported American industrial products. Those tariffs were used by the EU and Japan to rebuild their infrastructure after a devastating war. ..However, and here's the kicker.. There was never a built in mechanism to end the tariffs….
That is until President Trump came along and said: “it’s over”!
After about 20 years (+/-), say 1970 to be fair, the EU and Japan received enough money to rebuild, but instead of ending the one-way payment system, Asia and the EU sought to keep going and build their economies larger than the U.S.
Additionally, the U.S. was carrying the cost of protecting the EU (via NATO) and Japan with our military. The EU and Japan didn’t need to spend a dime on defense because the U.S. essentially took over that role. But that military role, just like the tariffs, never ended.....Again, until Trump.
The U.S. economy was the host for around 50 years of parasitic wealth exfiltration, or as most would say “distribution”. The term*exfiltration* better highlights that American citizens paid higher prices for stuff, and paid higher taxes within the overall economic scheme, than was needed.
President Trump is the first and only president who said: “ENOUGH...”, and prior politicians who didn’t stop the process were “stupid” etc etc. ...
Obviously, he is 100% correct.
For the past 30 years the U.S. was a sucker to keep letting the process remain in place while we lost our manufacturing base to overseas incentives.
The investment process from Wall Street (removal of Glass-Steagal) only made the process much more severe and faster. Wall Street was now investing in companies whose best bet (higher profit return) was to pour money overseas. This process created the “Rust Belt”, and damn near destroyed the aggregate manufacturing industry.
Unfortunately, putting ‘America First’ is now also against the interests of the multinationals on Wall Street; so President Trump has to fight adverse economic opponents on multiple fronts…. and their purchased mercenary army we know as DC politicians.
No-one, ever, could take on all these interests. Think about it… The EU, Asia, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, China, Russia, U.S .Chamber of Commerce, Iran, U.S. Congress, Democrats, U.S. Senate, Wall Street, the Big Club, Lobbyists, Hollywood, Corporate Media (foreign and domestic), and the ankle-biters in Never Trump…. All of these financial interests are aligned against Main Street USA and against President Trump.
Name one individual who could take them on simultaneously and still be winning.. Probably the ONLY person in America. ..DONALD J. TRUMP!!!!
They say he’s one man. They say they have him outnumbered. Yet somehow, as unreal as it seems, he’s the ONE who appears to have THEM surrounded.

Hillary told us to have nothing but contempt for "deplorables." Whether she realized it or not "deplorables" are citizens who vote, who are fed up with what Kim describes below and we are enraged at the elite's hatred, underhanded corrupt manipulation of everything we once believe meant what it is to be an American.
I consider myself a deplorable and I intend to stand in line and vote against every thing I despise about Schumer, Pelosi, Nadler, Schiff, Waters, the crooks in the FBI, the Mueller Team liars and phone wipers, the Brennan's and their ilk in the intelligence agencies, the thugs 'the Clinton's, Obama and Biden brought into government. My vote will feel like a wash cloth wiping the smugness off the faces of those in the mass media and Democrat Party and radicals who speak for them and who want to continue their wrecking of America.
WhiIe I am at it, my vote will also be cast against the rioters, the BLM's, Soro's and Hunter and all the blood sucking corrupt jerks who have lined their pockets at the public trough and for good measure, I will throw in the mix, the hypocrites in Hollywood and corporate technology tycoons who control the destiny of our nation's freedoms.
And, I certainly do not want Kamala to be my next president nor do I want Soros and son pulling the puppet strings any longer. It is time to put a stop to the behind the curtain magicians.
And:
Be careful what you look for. Something else might be there! Photojournalist went undercover to expose white supremacists at riots, but found black bloc anarchists instead

The James Comey Election
His testimony this week was a reminder of everything that enrages Trump voters.
The Comey hearing was a reminder that Americans will be voting this election on more than candidate personalities. They’ll be deciding if they want a return to that swamp.
The political elite remain puzzled—and in agony—over how Donald Trump could still be in the race. A bullying debater! A purveyor of mistruths! A would-be autocrat! How has our country come to this?
The answer sat staring at them on a video link this Wednesday, in the smug countenance of James Comey.
This obvious truth will be missed by the left and the media, which continue to comfort themselves with the fiction that Mr. Trump won in 2016 by preying on the weak and ill-informed. The opposite is true. The businessman was propelled to office on the fury of those who had seen too much. They’d watched for decades as an insulated elected class—Democrat and Republican alike—broke promises, failed to solve problems, and blamed it on the system.
These voters had watched the swamp take over—IRS targeters, self-righteous prosecutors, zealous regulators—armed with stunning powers and a mentality that they were entitled to make the rules, to tell the little people what was best for them. Voters fumed over the double standard. Hillary Clinton deleted government emails with abandon, while a 77-year-old Navy veteran went to prison for building a pond in contravention of “navigable water” rules.
Mr. Comey personifies what enrages those Americans. His testimony this week was a vivid reminder that the election won’t hinge only on the issues as defined by the media elite. Tuesday’s brawl was mostly about the virus, the economy, violence in the streets, the Supreme Court. But November’s vote for many Americans will be a choice between an administration that believes we the people should run Washington, and those who believe the swamp should rule the masses. Mr. Biden wouldn’t challenge the mandarins; he’d unleash them.
Chairman Lindsey Graham hauled the former FBI director in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee ostensibly to answer for stunning new details in the bureau’s Trump-Russia probe. But the hearing more broadly resurrected the breathtaking arrogance of the swamp. This was the crew that in 2016—based on the thinnest of tips—launched a counterintelligence investigation into a presidential campaign, complete with secret surveillance warrants and informants. Mr. Comey triggered the public release of the collusion accusations. He secretly kept memos of his conversations with a president, for future leverage. He leaked them, to provoke a special counsel and two years of hell.
FBI agent Peter Strzok in 2018 lectured Congress that the bureau had too many “safeguards” and “procedures” ever to allow “improper” behavior. Yet this past week provided evidence the FBI leaders blew through red light after red light. We already knew they based the probe on a dossier that came from a rival campaign. We knew the bureau was warned early on that the dossier was potential Russian disinformation. And now we know it discovered that the man who was the dossier’s primary source had been under FBI investigation as a suspected agent for Moscow. The bureau hid all of this from the surveillance court. It even doctored an email to conceal exculpatory information.
Mr. Comey highlighted the double standard again on Wednesday, as he danced around accountability. The probe’s biggest problem was that it was run at the top with no checks or oversight. Yet according to Mr. Comey, the top didn’t include the FBI director. “I can’t recall.” “I don’t remember learning anything.” “I don’t recall being informed of that.” “That’s about all I can recall.” “I don’t know.” “That doesn’t ring a bell.” So responded Mr. Comey for hours. His claims of obliviousness contrast with recent documents showing widespread concern in the FBI about the probe’s problems, with agents and analysts fretting about future “tough questions” and rushing to purchase professional liability insurance.
Mr. Biden has yet to be asked on the campaign trail if he approves of this FBI behavior, including its misrepresentations to a surveillance court. Or what he thinks of Mr. Comey, who has been excoriated in three inspector general reports. Or of former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, fired for leaking and for lying to investigators. But Biden’s failure to voluntarily weigh in on such a consequential scandal may be viewed by voters as evidence that Mr. Biden is fine with it. And why wouldn’t he be? This all took place in Barack Obama’s and Joe Biden’s Washington.
Those eight years featured plenty of other swamp monsters, and don’t underestimate the number of Americans who fear a return to that world. Lois Lerner harassing conservative nonprofits. Supervisors at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives loosing guns in Fast and Furious. The Environmental Protection Agency minions who burned companies with ever-changing rules. The Bureau of Land Management harassment of ranchers and farmers. Energy Department officials steering stimulus payouts to Solyndra and other projects of Obama donors.
No one knows who will win this election. But the Comey testimony warns against thinking this battle will swing on candidate personalities alone. No matter how much the elite media wills it so.
