Oddly enough, nbc left this part out: “Now this… on Friday, in a Federal Court In Atlanta, Georgia, J. Alex Halderman was able to HACK A DOMINION VOTING MACHINE to change the tabulation In Front Of U.S. District Judge Amy Totenberg in the courtroom! Halderman USED ONLY A PEN TO CHANGE VOTE TOTALS!” The way I heard it, he changed the winner of the election from George Washington to Benedict Arnold. Right in front of the judge.

Sounds good. I guess a lot of folks would be for getting rid of some gravity.

Though the least interesting, based on viewership, I thought the Neb. v Minn. match was the most entertaining of the three.

Okay. What are we gonna save it from?

Not much media coverage of this. The report has been sealed by the court for 2 years. BREAKING: Professor and Election Expert J. Halderman Hacks into Dominion Voting Machine in Court on Friday in Georgia in front of Judge Totenberg USING ONLY A PEN TO CHANGE VOTE TOTALS https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/01/breaking-professor-election-expert-j-halderman-hacks-dominion/

When you remember that Bill Buckley said that he would rather be governed by the first few hundred names in the phone book than the Harvard faculty, you realize that it’s not really a new phenomenon.

And it still ain’t enough.

All of this is covered in the posted article. Hinderaker is an excellent and respected lawyer and columnist. He relays Rasmussen’s (a respected pollster) poll just as presented. You have issues, that I’m not concerned about, but don’t have a leg to stand on. If you ever get this sorted out, you’re going to find that Rasmussen indeed set the methodology and received the data as presented.

No doubt about that. It looks like Pendleton has things progressing well. His younger guys look solid, so he’s doing well with recruiting. I tip my hat to them.

Maybe:

They looked a little flat and the ref looked like he didn’t want to be there.

What does second place win?

And that the easiest place to find them is among the poison ivy leaguers.

That explains a lot.

What are the odds they’ll start at 125?

Just like anything else. The majority of people being law abiding, they’d pass a law restricting sales, parts and repairs, and rely on neighbors and family reporting, similar to covid.

I read the question but I was not party to the phone conversations.

You need to get more cerebral, learn to critically think about these things. The pollster didn’t ask if the elitist wanted to turn his air conditioner off. He can do that any time he wants. They want to turn ours off.

They are elitists, they don’t mean ban their air conditioning, only yours.

You see a connection between critical thinking and wiki?

They didn’t call me, either.

POSTED ON JANUARY 20, 2024 BY JOHN HINDERAKER IN LEFTISM, LIBERALS, SOCIALISM ARE OUR ELITES CRAZY? “Pollster Scott Rasmussen conducted two separate surveys, each covering 1,000 “Members of the Elites.” The results are remarkable, not to say shocking. But the starting point is, who was defined as “elite” for purposes of these surveys? Ten thousand people per square mile represents a high-density urban environment. But in that context, $150,000 a year is no princely salary. Nationwide, it takes far more–around $650,000 annually–to be in the top 1% in income. A person who lives in a big city and earns $150,000 is not, in any financial sense, elite. So the key element in Rasmussen’s formula is having a postgraduate degree. Basically, what we are surveying here is people with graduate degrees who live in cities, the large majority of whom don’t make a great deal of money. Many in that group are probably women, although Rasmussen says the survey results were “lightly weighted” by gender, age and race. Rasmussen also defined a subcategory of “Ivy League elites,” consisting of graduates of one of the eight Ivy League schools, plus Northwestern, Duke, Stanford and the University of Chicago. These “elites,” so defined, are living in another world than the rest of us. They are extraordinarily loyal to the regime; 84% of them approve of Joe Biden’s performance as president. I wouldn’t have thought you could get that high an approval rating if you sampled the Democratic National Committee. And 70% of the “elites” trust the government to do the right thing most of the time; that rises to 89% among those who are “the most politically active members of the elite.” These elites even trust journalists: 79% have a favorable opinion of them, as do 84% of the “Ivy League elite.” When it comes to policy, these people are crazy. Forty-seven percent say that America suffers from too much freedom, compared with only 21% who think we have too much government control. Among the Ivy League elite, 55% say America is too free, with only 15% saying we have too much government. So how do the elites want to limit our excessive freedom? A shocking 77% say they favor the “strict rationing of gas, meat and electricity.” That basically means living in a poor, totalitarian state like the USSR. And by 89% to 10%, the Ivy League elites want to see “strict rationing” of these most basic commodities. These “elites” are fascists. Large majorities want to ban gas stoves (69%), gasoline powered cars (72%), non-essential air travel (55%), SUVs (58%) and air conditioning (53%). The Ivy League elites are even worse: the corresponding numbers are 80% for gas stoves, 81% for gasoline powered cars, 70% for non-essential air travel, 66% for SUVs, and 68% want to ban air conditioning. There is no polite way to put it: they are fascists. There is more at the link. The people whom Rasmussen has identified are obviously dangerous to our democracy. If they take over, we are finished. More study needs to be done to figure out who, exactly, they are, so we can root them out and negate their influence. In the meantime, some moderate measures probably need to be taken. Like abolishing the Ivy League.“ https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2024/01/are-our-elites-crazy.php
