The dwarven story line is the worst. Absolute drivel. A "modern family" with arguing kids, moms who do all the work, give all the orders in public (yes, really) and simpering dads, plus CHEATING and backstabbing family and all the other things that a low IQ viewers would think is entertainment. Housewives of Khazad-dum.
The other side has always known how to persuade, what do you think SNL is? A comedy show? It's the unit designated to ridicule the opposition so that audience members will feel embarrassed to support them. It's a form of peer pressure and it works. The Right needs to figure that out and counter signal the ridicule with a dedicated team that's well-funded...and actually funny.
The tell is when they say things that shows they aren't worried about winning elections anymore. Lula did it in the debate when he threatened Bolsonaro. I knew it right then. He wasn't worried about the optics of it, he knew he was going to win so he lost his temper. Look for the tells...
My band chart and the scatter plot show the exact same data. Same races, same lines, same numbers. Only the layout is different.
It's important that people understand what they're looking at, so I've laid out the same data both ways: my band chart and the scatter plot.
I created the band chart because I'm a visual person, and I think it tells the story better. The scatter plot is the format statisticians are used to.
Either way, 2018 and 2026 do not look alike, and below you'll see why.
2018: Republicans dropped a little, unevenly.
2026: They dropped a lot, evenly.
Add in that China had been making moves towards Taiwan (very aggressive maneuvers in the strait, testing limits). Taking a decent enough amount of their oil also effectively ended that threat, at a time when we still haven't ramped up chip production domestically.
But agreed, those are all relevant points and all we hear from the low IQ's is "no more war for another nation!" which is just incredibly obtuse.
@sanam78718876@jasoncloninger@MikeBenzCyber Agreed. To those who understand global policy (including weaknesses to the U.S.) this is a no-brainer. Not sure why more people can't figure this out.
@jasoncloninger@MikeBenzCyber You're right, but I'd add that it would cause the collapse of the US as our current reliance on being the global reserve currency would be destroyed. It's about US, not Israel and low info's can't put that together.
@MikeBenzCyber No, you're just letting a minimal amount of information (i.e. you don't get the NatSec briefs...or do you?) cause you to be siding with a low info crowd. Makes you look low info too.
I'm two episodes in and this might be worse than Season 1. The "modern family" crap with Durin is just laughably out of place for what they're trying to do (or should be doing). Hey look! This dwarf kings got the same issues as you suburban families in the 21st Century! Oh, and his wife does most of the work and gives all the orders! Just like the 21st Century! Amirite??
Oh and let's add some Housewives of Beverly Hills shyte with his brother being his wife's ex (really!?) who wants to get her to cheat on him. Fucking unreal.
You know the most damning indictment of stolen midterms? Our MAGA friends, our GOP activists, great patriots spent past 2 years working day and night, door to door, to register over 2 million new Republicans...while Democrats lost over 2 million registered voters. We won the battle- by a mile.
So, there was an almost 5 million voter turnaround since 2024 election- where we won by landslide. 5 million- in our favor. But we lost because 19 million phantom votes turned up out of blue- all for Democrats. In a midterm- where voter turnout is always much lower.
Millions went to our side, millions left Dems. But then Dems suddenly gained 19 million - in a midterm. This is pure fantasy. and fraud. Fairy Tale. I'm a Vegas oddsmaker. Odds of this are -0-.
Awesome straightforward piece about the cheating in elections. Here is the author's background -
I spent almost 30 years supporting, monitoring, and assessing foreign elections, beginning in 1992 as a UN District Electoral Supervisor in Cambodia’s transitional election, and ending in 2021 as Director of the Center for Democracy Rights and Governance in the first Trump administration. As a top professional in my field, I know how to assess election integrity better than virtually any lawyer, government official, journalist, talking head, or politician.

The Dems used over 26 Million illegal voter registrations to steal 15% off the top of the Rep votes, and add the rest to the Dems.
The illegals didn't vote themselves (mostly), but I'm suggesting that the Data Hack used on the machines needed registered voters details to make it work.
This is based on there having been 26 million new voter registrations from 2022-24 (EAC data), and likely more, albeit at a much slower rate, since 2024 (data not yet available).
The likelihood is that they can't just add empty numbers, via a hack, to the machines - they need a person's voter information to achieve this. Therefore they didn't need the illegals to even vote - just that their details be registered!
