The Big Battle — The People versus The Blob

All the world waits

Babylon Bee

As The Babylon Bee says:

If Trump Is Elected It Will Be The End Of Bureaucracy As We Know It

Politics · Nov 4, 2024 · BabylonBee.com

Other Democrats agreed that another Trump presidency would likely spell doom for lucrative but wasteful government programs, with increased efficiency and reduced tax revenue taken in by the government would have a devastating effect on their ability to become wealthy. “Our system of government has never faced a more imminent threat,” said Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. “The days of elected officials getting rich from kickbacks, secret bribes, and insider trading may be over. Serving the public should never be the motivating factor for entering public service. I fear for our nation… and my life.”

The gap between the media and the voters continues to grow:

https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/rich-noyes/2024/11/05/its-official-2024-campaign-news-coverage-was-worst-ever

Or, to put it another way, the media had to be nicer to Kamala than to any candidate in history

Newsbusters reports that this is the largest media bias they have ever seen. So despite the relentless propaganda, at least half the country think the media are barking mad, or they wouldn’t be doing the exact opposite of what the media wants them to do.

Call me suspicious, but I can’t see the sociopaths with power giving it up easily. Given Mike Benz withering description of 76 years of election rigging influence by US Intelligence agencies, it’s hard to believe they (and all the other beneficiaries) won’t be doing their damnedest to win one way or the other. After all their jobs may depend on it, and they’ve tried impeachment, indictments, assassinations, bankrupting him with legal cases, they’ve put his key supporters in jail, and they’ve disbarred the lawyers who tried to help him last time. What’s one more unthinkable steal? It’s just people protecting democracy, right?

The 65 Project to intimidate and bully lawyers.Such is the weapons-grade demonization of Trump, Politico are having public nightmares that Trump might lose and take power anyway.

Activist groups have been created to defend the Blob

“The 65 Project” is a kind of legal Deathstar, threatening the lawyers who helped Donald Trump in 2020. They want to “deter future abuse of the legal system by “Big Lie Lawyers” (they actually call them that) seeking to overturn legitimate elections.” Legitimate, meaning, their favourite candidate.

Once upon a time, the opposition lawyers were just doing their job, but now they are are horrible unethical people who “risk democracy”presumably by bringing cases before the court that a judge might accidentally agree with. It’s so much more ethical to abandon the unwashed masses and deny them their day in court isn’t it?

It goes without saying that they must be afraid his lawyers might win.

Anyone want to help archive election results?

On the other side, there is a citizens ECop group looking for help to archive election results in 15 minute intervals so audits can be done later.  I don’t know much about them, but it looks good.  They aim to have a type of Election Results WayBack Machine. This would shine a light on any step-wise “jumps” in the vote tally.

For any US voters reading, don’t forget to vote if you still can. The more votes there are, the harder it is to sabotage.

And while you wait, Joe Rogan talks to the most amazing engineer…

As Musk says, this may be the last election if Trump doesn’t win. With mass immigration of welfare-dependent-left-leaning voters into swing states, the swing states become solid Democrat states. Soon the whole US is one big California.

More ominously, if the forces of censorship, data collection and social credit scores are not beaten back, soon the whole West will be one big China.

UPDATE: Elon seems very happy…


 There is a live feed election discussion on Twitter under Elon Musks handle. He is discussing results as they come in.

    Print the reserve currency and inflate the edge currencies assets till it causes inflation wars which are fed using more printing.

    We are almost at the ww3 stage. Nuclear war and the end of most life.

    Can Trump wind back 37 Trillion of debt with drill baby drill and tariffs to get balanced trade and sustainable immigration?

    Over four years this is not fiscally possible.

    Its going to take 20 years. Is Vance the correct choice?

    Harris means certain war.

    Both sides offer Australia nothing. We have made our own mess and are fully deserving of its consequences.

      No Geoff. No. Kamala offers us a bigger stronger UN, support and training for our censors, and endorsement of nutso climate policies.

      Trump, just by being Trump, gets the US out of the Paris-rort, and makes it so much easier for our hapless PM to do that too. It makes our reckless renewables fantasy look so much more ridiculous.

      What’s more, Trump creates some peace and our young men and women don’t have to go die in pointless wars.

      We need Trump as much as the US does.

          If Kamala is elected it will be the end of everything as we know it.
          (and all the foaming-at-the-mouth TDS Kamala voters will get the ultimate wake-up call)

        The 37T is the problem. The only way of winding it back is not going to be good for Australia as Trump must balance US trade with China. China is our main customer for a supply of USD. A lower USD. A higher A$.

        Trump means uncertainty.

        Harris means WW3 and the end of most life.

        We are not prepared for these choices.

        Both will hurt us.

        Its like an Australian election.

        Labor oblivion or Liberal stupidity.

        Small time crooks everywhere versus a few BIG crooks.

        A younger Trump would have meant a better chance. He is 78. He needs to fill the cabinet with people who can think beyond America First.

          ‘The 37T is the problem.’

          They have the gold to back it and BRICS is dead in the water.

          ‘Harris means WW3 and the end of most life.’

          That is hype, the most likely outcome is that Putin will be defeated and China, seizing the opportunity, will reclaim stolen land. Taiwan would be off the agenda.

            The gold has 35+ owners. A potential public audit will get you assassinated. The USD is a petro$ in any case. Drill baby drill can work but not to the tune of 37T. The problem is oil requires a minimum price/BoE to make drilling for light oils in shale profitable. Its just a sugar hit as a US$40/BoE is not sustainable. EVs are too expensive.

            China will go for Taiwan if Harris gets elected.

            Russia will go nuclear if they are being defeated.

            Harris will respond with force.

            A slow moving train wreck is in progress.

              There will most likely be an internal revolt within the Kremlin and out in the streets over the war, so tactical nuclear weapons are useless.

              Harris will maintain the status quo until victory is achieved in Ukraine and Trump might withdraw from NATO, which allows the Europeans to defend themselves for a change.

              Xi needs a rough and tumble businessman to help him get out of economic depression, Trump has the charismatic authority to achieve this outcome and Harris doesn’t.

          Geoff, it’s simple.

          A better world is better for Australia, regardless of what he does with trade, tariffs etc.

      Both sides offer Australia nothing.

      I don’t fully agree Geoff. I believe that with Trump attempting to save America, it will slow the decline of Western Civilisation in general. I think the damage done to America (and the West) by Obama, Biden and others is severe (and deliberate), but Trump’s last term showed that the decline of America could be reversed.

      This time he really needs to “drain the swamp”. Last time I think he was naive and did not realise how deep the swamp went, he even inadvertently employed some swamp creatures. But Trump can’t do it in four years. It will then be up to Vance and his successors. The evil of the Left has to be routed out forever and America returned to its roots of “one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all”.

      The huge debt of the US Government, and other Western countries including Australia is a big problem. There will be severe unavoidable consequences. The only solution is for governments to stop spending on just about everything except law and order, defence, certain basic infrastructure like roads and very few other things (yes, that WILL HURT) and pay done the debt. In addition, freeing up the economy by deregulation will allow much greater economic growth as Trump showed last time which will generate more taxes with which the debt can be paid down.

      With Harris, it’s more of the same, and far, far worse.

      We should forget about ANZUS, remember the poms in WW2, when Singapore was about to be invaded by soldiers ‘who didn’t arrive the way we wanted them to’, help yourself, we’re busy with our own survival, the same thing is happening to the good ‘ol USA, sinking in a morass of its own making.

        When Singapore fell the UK were actually in the middle of a battle that they could have easily lost. I can understand why they didn’t send all their troops to defend it.

        Singapore fell in Feb 1942. At the same time the UK were in the middle of the battle for the Atlantic, shipping was being hammered by the U-boats. In mainland Europe the battle fronts were extensive, Germany reached the peak of it’s territorial gains in 1942.

        If I were battling the German armed forces in 1942, from the UK viewpoint, I think the outcome for Singapore would have been the same. Sometimes you just have to fight the battle you are currently in before jumping into the ring with another combatant.

      Too pessimistic by half. In Trump’s first term his genius brought world peace and world prosperity: until the Chinese virus emerged and the disgusting, unrelenting sabotage by the demorats and the msm stopped him. Then there was the lawfare. None of the charges against Trump have any basis or validity. It’s time the msm and the swamp bureaucrats where curtailed because they are the biggest threat to the West; not communism or islam.

      Anyway, it’s not just Trump but Elon, Tulsi, Vivek, JD and a cast of the best and brightest and bravest. I don’t think Trump will make his one mistake from his first term: which was to trust swamp RINOs. But there has to be a purging. We’ll see what sort of resistance the demorats put up or whether they are exhausted. I don’t know because they are disgusting people who have continually betrayed the US and the West. They are irredeemable and only exist for power. So I just hope Trump and his great team can head them off because he can fix the damage the demorats have left behind.

        The other problem is the collapse of Neo-Keynesian thought.
        Keynes himself put forward a short time way of correcting the big (1930’s) slump but admitted that this would cause some inflation.
        About the time he died (still trying to work about inflation) NeoKynesians theories ideas were flown that this doesn’t matter as the resultant debt would be relegated to the future, so Governments could spend what they liked and “being in control of the economy”.
        Well we entered the end result of this. No-one will lend money to the Government (largely to employ non-productive public servants) without a short term payback. The government (advised by public servants) is trying to keep going downhill and not trying to boost economic growth. Hence our non-productive policies, higher inflation, rising unemployment and rising dissatisfaction with the ‘Canberra classes”.
        Trump wants to reverse this decline. Whether he can I don’t know but many Americans will be on his side.

    A big, fat, fluffy ginger cat sauntered up to my van today then hopped up on top of a fence-post opposite to where I was parked: he could’ve been a Maine Coon cat he was that big, but I call him Mayor Cat as I’ve seen him strolling around the beach before, looking like he’s the boss.

    As he’s more orange than red, I asked him who would win today. Sage-like he slowly blinked at me and let out an almost human meow… “Trump?” I enquired. He nodded, blinked sagely once more (or was it a wink?) then carried on with his day.

    I’ll take it as a good (if humorous) sign.

      At this stage of the game it would appear Mayor Cat is a very intuitive critter, with The Don leading in the final straight… though the opposition have been known to pull a swifty before.

        Mayor Cat appears to be a very good judge of electoral outcomes. His prognostications may well outperform the pollsters employed by MSM leading up to the US election who said the result was “neck and neck” during the last few weeks. It’s going to be a whitewash- or a “red wash” if you will.

She’ll be hidden away, refusing to do press conferences, her arms, legs and mouth tied to strings pulled by her puppet masters – we’ve seen it all the past 3.5 years.

        Yes, very close.

        Obstacles to be overcome:

        Philadelphia County appears to have stopped counting at 5.8M which is 72%. This is a very strong dem area big enough to flip PA back to the dems.
        Michigan, Wisconson and Arizona are counting slowly. All are currently within stealing range. Arizona officials have warned that their results will not be known for up to a week.
        Republicans are on track to take the senate and are currently +2 in the house but “decision desk” currently projects a dem majority.

        Despite the betting markets now having Trump at 97%, the next hour will show whether the steal is still on.

          I went away from my computer for a few hours and came back to find the presidential steal operation called off. I didn’t expect that.

          The only remaining obstacle is the house where republicans are currently +2. Decision desk now projects a narrow republican win with a reduced majority. But anything other than a dem majority will remove any possibility of the dems blowing the whole thing to hell.

          Now the bigger battle begins. Good luck everybody.

    There are democrats (ie, Republicans) working very hard this time to detect any election fraud. I watched the mid-terms with interest to see if the remarkable 2020 late surge of Democrat votes repeated in 2022. It didn’t, which to my mind suggested that there had been fraud in 2020 (the Democrats said the 2020 surge was natural, so it could be expected to repeat). I also read a statistical analysis recently that found probably 200,000 to 300,000 Biden votes were fraudulent in places where he won by less than 100,000. Let’s hope the USA gets a clear-cut honest result this time. They need it.

    HOw do you define a stepwise tally change? It is not like every vote gets added to the tally when it is counted. A booth, an area, a county or whatever will add a number of votes at once. It is all steps and of different magnitudes. You made this error last election.

    US to test hypersonic nuclear missile on Election Day hours after millions cast their vote

    The US military is set to carry out the test launch of a hypersonic missile on November 5 – hours after the polls close.

    An unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) is due to be fired between 11:01pm and 5:01am PT from California’s Vandenberg Space Force Base.

    Despite reports of concerns on the part of some Americans that the missile is being launched so closely to the US Presidential Election, military officials assured worried parties that “test is routine and was scheduled years in advance.”

    The military industrial complex is desperate for a Kamala Harris victory. Through their puppet they will continue to expand international conflicts. People will die. Money will be made. Unless you want your son or daughter to die on a foreign battlefield then you’d be better hope and pray for a Trump victory next week.

    It isn’t a good day for the (D)s but they will be in a world of hurt in four years if they don’t have a meaningful, soul searching, post mortem. That is beyond them, when things go wrong for the left they just go further left.

    In four years:
    When Trump is being seen to hand over power “democracy at risk” will not be a thing.
    Vance (?) is H1tler just won’t have that ring to it. :yawn:
    Ab0rtion will have been a matter for the states for another four years.
    The (R)s will have an embarrassment of riches for candidates, the (D)s will stick with their ‘orribles (Newsom?)
    Surely they won’t go for the trifecta of “first woman”. There go the doctors’ wives and vegan cat ladies.
    Obumma and the Clintons will be history, no more pull.

    I’m as happy as a dog with two tails because it was too big to steal so there is no point to wheeling in the ballots [they will quietly disappear] so there will be no “conspiracy theories” about voting irregularities and the crazies from both sides have no excuse for a riot.

    Await no more. Trump is triumphant. Hopefully he will not be shackled by a Chinese virus which stopped him from finishing his policies last time. And, he has control of the Senate and Congress. BTW Starmer must be spewing- he backed the wrong horse.
    Also, I look forward to seeing Nigel Farage’s reaction.

    Albo has just congratulated Trump on his win , must have hurt more than the ABC who are yet to concede the win to Trump .

      I watched the biased ABC coverage a few hours ago and one of the presenters said it was getting grimmer and grimmer. Everyone in the panel began looking so glum as the scene showed crying Democrat supporters at their headquarters. For me, I went to the fridge to crack a cold one and have a quiet toast to Trump’s victory.

    Meanwhile the ABC is in complete denial, 7:30 stating “several networks have called it for Trump, but the ABC hasn’t”

    The ABC’s belief that they can have an effect on the US election and their “Trump Delusion Syndrome” borders on collective hysteria.

    They are delusional.

    Counting has stopped in Michigan and Pennsylvania with Trump having a clear lead and single digit proportion of the vote yet to count. Trump does not have enough lead for these States to change if Harris gets 70%+ of the remaining vote.

    It was around this time in 2020 that strange things started to happen with Trump going backwards and Biden gaining in big steps.

    I just hope it’s not just a big head fake by the US inteligence agencies and the Fed to install someone to be the sacrificial goat for destroyimg the dollar, sending the world into a depression that will make the 30’s seem like a garden perty in comparison. To be solved by introducing central bank digital currencies, war and one world government. I’m glad Trump is back but too many conspiracy theories have come to be true to retire my tin foil hat just yet. Buy gold & silver,food necesities. Be prepared.
