Yes, they were. And no, you can't.

Spayberry looks like an All American Boy. I might have been tempted to vote for him myself except for his party affiliation. But then, notice how his collar is upturned and crooked on the side of his neck. And his tie is poking out from under the collar on the other side. Must have gotten dressed in a hurry. I wonder if he even got a shower. Doesn't look like he had to worry about shaving though. Yeah, he'll be popular with the other inmates.

Tim Walz mocked for saying he could ''code talk to white guys''
A manly man for manly men, you betcha.
[NYPOST] Former Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz
...Kamala's smarmy-looking VP running mate, governor of Minnesota and self-admitted knucklehead, who decided to retire rather than to deploy with his National Guard unit, then claimed to have been in Iraq and Afghanistan. One man's socialism is another man's neighborliness....
is being mercilessly mocked after he claimed he was chosen to join Kamala Harris
former senatrix from California, 2020 Dem presidential hopeful and ultimately Joe Biden's intended successor
on the losing ticket because he could ''code talk to white guys.''
"What's he saying?"
"Dunno. I can't decipher it."

The Minnesota governor drew the derision of conservatives after he said on his national tour stop Monday that he was picked because of his ability to ''code talk to [men] watching football, fixing their truck[s]'' and ''put them at ease.''
"At ease."
"I ain't in the army, bub. And you ain't no sergeant major."

Walz added he was the ''permission structure'' to win over white men from rural America to vote for Democrats
...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
.

Walz's critics joked that his coding was not very convincing.

''Tampon Tim Walz thought white guys watching football and fixing their truck[s] would listen to him and vote for Kamala,'' one X user quipped, referring to the political moniker he earned for requiring public schools to provide menstrual products to all students in 4th through 12th grades.

''Tim Walz is DELUSIONAL!'' chimed in Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.).

''Tim Walz says Kamala picked him as a running mate to give 'permission' for white dudes to vote for a radical black/Indian woman,'' wrote conservative pundit Charlie Kirk. ''How'd that work out for you, Tim?!'' he added.

Walz made the comments at a Harvard Kennedy School forum on Monday night on a stop of his national ''listening tour.''

Europe
German spy agency brands far-right AfD as ‘extremist’, opens way for closer surveillance
[IsraelTimes] Report calls Alternative for Germany party a racist and anti-Muslim organization stirring up ‘irrational fears and hostility’; move comes amid soaring support for far right in Europe

Germany’s spy agency on Friday classified the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) as "extremist," enabling it to step up monitoring of the country’s biggest opposition party, which decried the move as a "blow against democracy."

A 1,100-page report by experts found that the AfD is a racist and anti-Moslem organization, a finding that grants the security services powers to recruit informants and intercept party communications.

#8  Yeah, whatever it's original intent and purpose, I'm guessing it became an accepted way to apply pressure to opposition not long before McCain started calling people Hobbits, the kind of retarded slur someone would use who doesn't have the urgency of risk, likely abused to suppress opposition to the Blamtifa Riots, and peak flexed with Biden's Red Background Speech when he called everyone not on board The Machine an inhuman domestic terrorist, a message roundly rejected last election cycle and hopefully is under some scrutiny because if it is casually being abused to do, say, help fabricate the kidnapping of a sitting governor, that is way out of charter.

This looks like next form Patriot Act when instead of hack judges giving permission slips, opposition to policy is officially outlawed, and the conversation we too would be having had "Harris Won". It is a bit more open, to be honest, and has a nifty hat, so there is that.

#10  The "1,100-page report by experts" is so far secret but three quotes from AfD politicians used to substantiate its finding were leaked to the press.

"Vielfalt bedeutet Multikulti. Und was bedeutet Multikulti? Multikulti bedeutet Traditionsverlust, Identitätsverlust, Verlust der Heimat, Mord, Totschlag, Raub und Gruppenvergewaltigung."

"Verfehlte Migrationspolitik und Asylmissbrauch haben zum 100.000-fachen Import von Menschen aus zutiefst rückständigen und frauenfeindlichen Kulturen geführt."

"Wir müssen auch wieder entscheiden dürfen, wer überhaupt zu diesem Volk gehört und wer nicht. Es gehört mehr dazu, Deutscher zu sein, als einfach nur eine Staatsbürgerurkunde in der Hand zu haben."

Deepl translation:

“Diversity means multiculturalism. And what does multiculturalism mean? Multiculturalism means loss of tradition, loss of identity, loss of homeland, murder, manslaughter, robbery and gang rape.”

“Misguided migration policies and asylum abuse have led to the 100,000-fold import of people from deeply backward and misogynistic cultures.”

“We must also be allowed to decide again who belongs to this nation and who does not. There is more to being German than simply having a citizenship certificate in your hand.”


These positions, with which I agree in part are considered to be "extreme right" positions by the Germany federal executive.

For reference the Communist Party of Germany has exercised some political power in unified Germany since 1994.

The CPEG is the organized core of an actual murderous dictatorship.

The BfV, the domestic "spy agency" is an agency of the federal executive of Germany. It is lead by political appointees who serve at the pleasure of the interior minister.

Its presidency is vacant, because the former president resigned in late 2024 to run for a parliament seat for the CDU / Merkel's party, ultimately unsuccessfully.

One of the two vice presidents and current leaders of the BfV is Istanbul born Sinan Selen.

The BfV is not independent.

@9 The foundation of the East German regime was the GSFG/ГСВГ/GSSD.
Nothing exists at present in Germany that could be seen as the strategic equivalent of the GSFG.

I don't see any escalation because there's no "Red Coat" force in sight.

Government Corruption
FBI Reportedly Places Infamous Censorship Agent Elvis Chan On 'Terminal Leave'
[ZH] Would that it be actually Terminal
Elvis Chan, the FBI’s Assistant Special Agent in Charge in San Francisco, has reportedly been placed on "terminal leave" and has not accessed agency systems for over a month, according to independent journalist Breanna Morello.

Chan has faced scrutiny for his alleged role in coordinating with social media platforms, including X (formerly Twitter), to censor conservatives during the 2020 presidential election, which saw President Joe Biden defeat President Donald Trump. In September 2023, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) issued a subpoena compelling Chan to testify about the FBI’s interactions with tech companies, which Jordan described as potential "coercion and collusion" to censor speech, according to the New York Post.

Chan, who served as a liaison to companies like Facebook and Twitter through the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force, did not attend a scheduled interview with the committee, prompting the subpoena, Jordan said, per the Post.

During a 2023 deposition with attorneys general from Louisiana and Missouri, Chan denied having "internal knowledge" of efforts to suppress a 2020 New York Post story about Hunter Biden’s laptop.

Morello notes:

The controversy surrounding Chan coincides with a 2023 ruling by the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, which found that the FBI, White House, U.S. Surgeon General, CDC, and CISA likely violated First Amendment rights by "coercing or significantly encouraging" social media platforms to censor content.

...

Chan, who identifies with "he/him" pronouns on his LinkedIn profile, still lists himself as the Assistant Special Agent in Charge at the FBI’s San Francisco Bay office, where he has served for over 19 years.

Musk and his DOGE team reveal that our government is operating at African levels of corruption
[American Thinker] One of the best non-fiction books I’ve ever read is Keith Richburg’s 1997 Out of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa. In it, Richburg, who had a three-year stint as the Washington Post’s African bureau chief, explains why he’s so grateful that his long-ago ancestors endured the horrors of the slave ships and the dehumanizing indignity of slavery itself: If that hadn’t happened, he would have been born in Africa and that, he realized, would have been a terrible thing.

One of the chief problems Richburg describes about Africa in the early 1990s is government corruption. According to him, the corruption is so complete that government agencies are incapable of carrying out their mandates, since everything goes into the bureaucrats’ pockets. According to Elon Musk and his DOGE team’s analyses, our government is operating at almost the same level. No country with a government like that can thrive or even survive.

Here's the joke from Richburg’s book:

"So endemic is African corruption—and so much more destructive than its Asian counterpart—that the comparison has even spawned a common joke that goes like this:
An Asian and an African become friends while they are both attending graduate school in the West. Years later, they each rise to become the finance minister of their respective countries. One day, the African ventures to Asia to visit his old friend, and is startled by the Asian’s palatial home, the three Mercedes-Benzes in the circular drive, the swimming pool, the servants.

"My God!" the African exclaims. "We were just poor students before! How on earth can you now afford all this?"

And the Asian takes his African friend to the window and points to a sparkling new elevated highway in the distance. "You see that toll road?" says the Asian, and then he proudly taps himself on the chest. "Ten percent." And the African nods approvingly."

#1  "Ten percent."

Here a company extracting raw materials and its employees pay taxes. The operation that transports that and its employees pay taxes. The manufacturer and the employees who process the product pay taxes. The transportation company and employees who deliver the product pay taxes and taxes on the fuels utilized to move it. The retailer and his employees pay taxes to handle it. The customer pays direct tax at the checkout. Its taxes all the way through. 10%? That's peanuts.

Dem congressman calling for Trump's impeachment was once accused of indescribable act involving 118 beagles in his pharmaceutical lab
[NYPOST] A Democratic congressman who is trying to impeach President Trump was once accused of abandoning 118 beagles inside his pharmaceutical testing lab when it went bankrupt.

Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.), who announced Monday he had filed seven articles of impeachment against Trump, was forced to shutter the New Jersey lab, AniClin Preclinical Services, when the parent company that he owned filed for bankruptcy in April 2010.

Several months later, animal activists became aware that the hounds were still stuck inside the since-abandoned facility, HuffPost reported at the time.

Lab workers had allegedly been jumping the facility’s fences to give the beagles food and water. The scores of dogs were eventually rescued from the lab by animal welfare groups that July and later rehomed.

At the time, Thanedar said the Bank of America was in control of the lab after seizing it during the bankruptcy proceedings.

"It is my understanding that Bank of America made arrangements to assign caretakers for the animals and secure homes for them, but those decisions came from the bank after I left the company," Thanedar told the outlet.

"I am an animal lover and completely understand the sensitivity of this issue."

Critics seized on Thanedar’s decade-old animal history this week after he revealed his impeachment efforts against Trump.

"Shri Thanedar left 100’s of dogs to die in cages after testing chemicals on them when his business went bankrupt. He can spare us on the moral outrage," Sen. Aric Nesbitt (R-Mich.) said in an X post with a link to an old news article.

The alleged impeachable actions include the deportation of alleged gangbanger Kilmar Abrego Garcia, as well as "unlawful" cuts carried out by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency.

Trump, for his part, ripped Thanedar as a "lunatic."
One of the signs of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
"Some guy that I’ve never heard of ... is he a congressman? This guy, he said ... ’Ladies and gentlemen, I am going to start the impeachment of Donald Trump
...So far he's been unkillable, and they've tried....
.’ What the hell did I do? Here we go again," Trump said Wednesday during a rally marking his first 100 days.
