[PJMedia] The Democrats’ assault on elections took a blow in Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S., who gives the term geriatric a bad name. He blames Afghans for losing Afghanistan.... ’s home state when the Delaware Supreme Court ...the political football known as The Highest Court in the Land, home of penumbrae and emanations... issued its full opinion of its Oct. decision that struck down same-day voter registration and voting by mail. The two initiatives had been approved by Delaware’s Democratic-controlled state legislature, but the justices declared that both were unconstitutional.
State politicians enacted a special voting-by-mail bill in 2020 in the early months of the pandemic, invoking emergency powers. The Delaware General Assembly codified voting-by-mail in June 2022 after they couldn’t get enough Republican support to change the state constitution. The legislature’s actions prompted a lawsuit by Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF).
"The Delaware Supreme Court has issued an opinion that universal mail-in voting and same-day registration violate the constitution," local news outlet WMDT reported. "This past summer, the Delaware General Assembly passed a law allowing universal mail-in voting and same-day voter registration. The Public Interest Legal Foundation then filed a lawsuit against the law, alleging that it violated Delaware’s Constitution."
In its opinion, the Court said that Article V, Section 4A of the Delaware Constitution only lets people vote absentee in specific circumstances. The Court also pointed out that the state constitution sets a deadline for registering to vote.

Hell, proof of a current year tax filing should be a requirement to vote.

...that could be interpreted as a poll tax which is unconstitutional.
Nothing prohibits qualified or prequalified to own a gun as a requirement. If you can't trust them with a gun, you can't trust them with using government as a gun.

We now live in the age of "stakeholders."
Used to be the definition of owning a stake involved buying in. Now, like "gender," you just declare it.

Anyone who votes in a state without filing a tax return should be investigated. That's not a poll tax. It's enforcing state tax codes against people who declare residency but for some reason failed to file.

Take what victories we can. But as long as we have mail-in ballots and computerized (Dominion Made in China) voting machines, we will have doubts about election integrity.

I work the polls sometimes as a voting location manager. In my professional life I have done process engineering for a couple decades. I volunteered to work the polls in 2018 because I wanted to see how robust the system was against cheating. There has always been cheating, but the electronic high volume cheating is new. Here are some changes that can be made at the state level to decouple the big cheating system:
- get your state off of the ERIC system. Having Soros clowns run the electronic voter registry for your state is dumb.
- get rid off sending ballots to people who did not request them.
- get rid of automatic registration. Dirtying the system with non-voters enables the people who control the ballots to assign manufactured ballots to voters after the fact.
- force all the absentee ballots to be processed immediately upon receipt by law
- clean up the voter rolls
- implement a requirement that the absentee ballot request be made and retained with a DL or ID# and signature.
- make laws to require the retention of the signed and ID’d absentee ballot with a by law process for signature match that includes a clause to decert the election if the number of signature match failures exceed the margin of victory.

The in person voting cheating is less of a concern to me except in the stupid places that are voting on flash drives with no paper ballots to count be hand. If there is no paper involved and you are just hoping your vote QR code is accurate, they will be taking advantage of your idiocy.

Also, the idea of turning all the ballots to a centralized counting center is a fraud plan.

[Wikipedia] The Battle of Athens (sometimes called the McMinn County War) was a rebellion led by citizens in Athens and Etowah, Tennessee, United States, against the local government in August 1946. The citizens, including some World War II veterans, accused the local officials of predatory policing, police brutality, political corruption, and voter intimidation.

The usual suspects asked for the governor to send the National Guard. Someone in the capital was smart enough to understand that the Guard would be composed of the same Vets as those in Athens and that the capital wasn't any less corrupt than those officials. Let's not give the boys any ideas now chief.

Interesting article. I remember hearing about this when I was younger. Those McMinn County boys are still very rough tough folks...same as their great grandfathers. During that time, their grandfathers were Civil War vets and their perspective was greatly influenced by the verbal history they grew up listening to on the front porches and in the living rooms.
[Federalist] After selling out their base on marriage and gun control, Senate Republicans decided to finish out 2022 by helping Democrats pass a $1.7 trillion omnibus spending package on Thursday that will keep the federal government funded through the end of 2023.
Released on Tuesday, the mammoth 4,155-page bill cleared a procedural vote held by the upper chamber later that same day, with 70 senators supporting and only 25 opposing. Despite objections from House Republicans and several of their GOP Senate colleagues, 18 Republican senators joined Senate Democrats in passing the wasteful bill, at a final vote of 68-29.
Among the Republicans who voted in favor are Sens. Roy Blunt of Missouri, John Boozman and Tom Cotton of Arkansas, Susan Collins of Maine, Mitt Romney of Utah, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, John Cornyn of Texas, Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Rob Portman of Ohio, Jerry Moran of Kansas, Mike Rounds and John Thune of South Dakota, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Roger Wicker of Mississippi, Richard Shelby of Alabama, and Todd Young of Indiana.
Three GOP senators — Richard Burr of North Carolina, John Barrasso of Wyoming, and Kevin Cramer of North Dakota — didn’t even bother to vote on the bill.
By helping Democrats pass an omnibus instead of a short-term funding package, Senate Minority Leader McConnell and Senate GOP leadership have erased any and all leverage the House’s incoming Republican majority would have over spending issues for most of 2023. This means conservative priorities, such as fixing President Joe Biden’s manufactured border crisis, will go unaddressed for another year.
"This is an act of extortion being leveraged on the United States Senate right before Christmas," said Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, during a speech on the Senate floor. "This bill, in all 4,155 pages of its glory — or infamy — was negotiated in secret by four or five members of Congress. ... They wrote it utterly in secret with the design of creating an artificial emergency, threatening a shutdown right before Christmas."
Prior to the bill’s passage, Lee proposed an amendment to keep Title 42 — the Trump-era policy making it easier to deport illegal immigrants at the border — in place. The amendment ultimately failed on a 47-50 vote.

Democrats wearing Republican costumes in order to get in office have been activated and thus burned by their creators. I would like to hear Tom Cotton's explanation.
#7
They just wanted to leave for Christmas vacation. To hell with the constituents.

I mean, come on, just look at those names. How can anybody be surprised?

Is it naive of me to hope that Kevin McCarthy will hold Mitch accountable for this? Yeah. Thought so.

MCConnell is compromised. He coordinates our betrayal like a ring master. Every time there is a vote like this, they all poke tgeir heads up like choir of civets singing Hakuna Matata. Each election Mitch leads the effort to encourage us to save Lindsey and whoever. We have seen this last time that he and Rona work against non- corruptible inappropriate candidates that we like. Mitch is not on the ballot in 2024 but we can replace his crew members. He will squeal, but there are so many Dem seats also on the ballot that it is a chance to start clearing out the snakes. Thyme is evidently Mitch’s hand picked successor. No sense firing the organ grinder and replacing him with the monkey.

RE #8: I’m one of those morons who though Cotton was a conservative. My bad. Done with him.
[Breitbart] On Friday’s broadcast of CNBC’s "Squawk Box," Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) stated that he is "proud to support" the omnibus bill, but acknowledged that due to the bill coming to the floor at the last minute, there wasn’t "enough time to fully scrub and understand what other members have put in it." And "I don’t know exactly what every other member of the Senate has put in the bill."
Coons stated, "I voted for the omnibus and I’m proud to support it, but I don’t like the process. And a bipartisan group of senators on the floor of the Senate were talking about how we can change this process going forward. Because frankly...when it all comes to the floor in the last few days and the last few hours, that doesn’t give us enough time to fully scrub and understand what other members have put in it. I understand that I’m responsible and so [are] my colleagues, the congressional delegation, for the congressionally-directed spending for Delaware, but I don’t know exactly what every other member of the Senate has put in the bill. So, frankly, it’s important for us to change the timing, to get back to following what’s in the law in terms of having open hearings early in the year, not late in the year."

It turns out AOC is the lone "Democrat" to vote against it. AOC yesterday replying to Rep. Chip Roy, "Thank you for calling attention to my “pet project” of making New York State a global leader in combating climate change and creating tons of good, high-paying jobs for people in the process. I’m proud of it! What’s your pet project? Being a hater for a living?" She wasn't proud enough to vote for it though.

[PJMedia] On Friday, Nancy Pelosi gave what is likely to be her final floor speech as speaker of the House.
It sure was a memorable one. Not so much because of anything deep and profound she might have said, but because she sounds completely sloshed. In fact, before ending the speech, she gave a typical holiday greeting for a liberal... and totally botched the name of "Kwanzaa."
It seems rather appropriate that in her last speech she would sound drunk and botch the name of a fake holiday, doesn’t it?

An insult instantly forgiven by her urban constituency.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
