Ruth Bader Ginsburg Dead

Let the games begin.

Update:

Outpourings of grief from the left…

Genius

Joe gonna say no, though:

President Donald Trump says he’s down for a four-hour debate with former Vice President Joe Biden — with podcast host Joe Rogan moderating.
 
The president declared his willingness to participate Monday morning tweet, after seeing a post from retired UFC fighter Tim Kennedy discussing Rogan’s proposal. Kennedy appeared as a guest with Rogan last week during which the host of the widely-listened to podcast offered to referee a 4-hour showdown between Trump and Biden.

This Is CNN

Breitbart;

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) on Sunday night raised concerns that CNN anchor Jake Tapper may be “meddling” in House races beyond the 17th congressional district in Pennsylvania.
 
Responding to a report from Breitbart News on how Jake Tapper attempted to convince rising GOP star candidate Sean Parnell to run in a district other than the 17th, the NRCC raised questions about Tapper’s actions in this case and wondered if he has engaged in activity like this in other districts with other candidates as well. […]
 
The original Breitbart News report quoted sources familiar with Tapper’s actions, in which he — through text messages, direct messages on Twitter to Parnell’s account, and phone calls — tried to steer Parnell towards running in less of a swing district and more a Republican-leaning district. The original cites a number of sources familiar with the matter. Since the publication of the original article, Breitbart News has additionally confirmed Tapper’s activities with at least eight more individuals aware of his behavior in Pennsylvania politics.

“a street fight, not a legal battle.”

Michael Anton;

Democrats are laying the groundwork for revolution right in front of our eyes.
 
As if 2020 were not insane enough already, we now have Democrats and their ruling class masters openly talking about staging a coup. You might have missed it, what with the riots, lockdowns and other daily mayhem we’re forced to endure in this, the most wretched year of my lifetime. But it’s happening.

That would make it their second attempt.

Social Disease

War.

On Tuesday, the Twitter account of famed attorney L. Lin Wood, who has represented Richard Jewell, Nicholas Sandmann, Mark and Patricia McCloskey, and now Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year-old charged with fatally shooting two people in Kenosha, was locked for supposedly violating Twitter’s terms of service. Wood had already posted about raising money for Rittenhouse’s legal defense.
 
Wood, furious, told Fox News that he intended to sue Twitter and its CEO Jack Dorsey, asserting, “I’m going to take Jack Dorsey’s ass down. He has been abusing the First Amendment of this country for his own agenda.”
 
Wood stated that his account was locked for “glorifying violence.” He continued, “I knew they were going to censor me because I’m sending a message of hope. I’m sending a message of truth. And I’m sending a message that Kyle Rittenhouse is innocent.”

Margin Of Fraud

NY Post;

A top Democratic operative says voter fraud, especially with mail-in ballots, is no myth. And he knows this because he’s been doing it, on a grand scale, for decades.
 
Mail-in ballots have become the latest flashpoint in the 2020 elections. While President Trump and the GOP warn of widespread manipulation of the absentee vote that will swell with COVID polling restrictions, many Democrats and their media allies have dismissed such concerns as unfounded.
 
But the political insider, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he fears prosecution, said fraud is more the rule than the exception. His dirty work has taken him through the weeds of municipal and federal elections in Paterson, Atlantic City, Camden, Newark, Hoboken and Hudson County and his fingerprints can be found in local legislative, mayoral and congressional races across the Garden State. Some of the biggest names and highest office holders in New Jersey have benefited from his tricks, according to campaign records The Post reviewed.
 
“An election that is swayed by 500 votes, 1,000 votes — it can make a difference,” the tipster said. “It could be enough to flip states.”
 
The whisteblower — whose identity, rap sheet and long history working as a consultant to various campaigns were confirmed by The Post — says he not only changed ballots himself over the years, but led teams of fraudsters and mentored at least 20 operatives in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania — a critical 2020 swing state.

Remember that thing called the Covid Pandemic?

In last night’s Reader Tips, SDA regular Deplorable Me posted a link to this page on the CDC website. It leads to some interesting reading and very enlightening data (emphaseses mine):

Comorbidities

Table 3 shows the types of health conditions and contributing causes mentioned in conjunction with deaths involving coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per death. The number of deaths with each condition or cause is shown for all deaths and by age groups. For data on comorbidities,

A little more digging will take you to this page showing the cumulative deaths in America involving Covid-19. Here’s a screenshot of the data shown today. Furthermore you can go to this page to download a slightly older dataset which breaks down Covid-19 related deaths by age range. Here’s a screenshot of this dataset’s breakdown by age range.

For those, like most journalists, for whom #MathIsHard, let’s take a look at the numbers:

  • 2020 Covid-19 related deaths in America: 167,558
  • Percentage of Covid-19 related deaths for ages 0 – 54: 8.16%
  • Percentage of these deaths purely caused by Covid-19: 6%
  • Number of Covid-19 related deaths for ages 0 – 54: 13,673
  • Number of deaths for ages 0 – 54, where Covid-19 was the only apparent cause: 820
  • Current US Population: 330,209,500

One can only wonder what historians will think, looking back at these minuscule Covid-19 death numbers of healthy people under 55 years old, asking why on earth much of our working activities were shut down? While one could offer politicians the benefit of the doubt in March and April, now that September is about to begin, why is anything still shut down?

Say It Isn’t So, Joe!

Examiner;

Presidential candidates are supposed to get a post-convention bounce, a small, sharp rise in the polls after the convention that nominated them formally. But this is 2020, when nothing is normal. Joe Biden didn’t get a post-convention bounce after the Democrats’ dour snore fest: His bounce showed up in Trump’s polling numbers. That’s just plain weird. Now, after the Republican convention, it’s a dead heat.

The After Party

Hosted by Joe Biden’s America.

Brandon Straka attacked by homophobic Biden supporters.

Rand Paul assaulted. Again.

Glenn Beck apologizes.

And of course, no Republican event is complete without an obnoxious Canadian.

Or two.

And good advice.

A Theory about what’s going on in America

The past few months have been very confusing. Here’s an evolving theory I’d like to submit for SDA readers to critique:

  • The prime directive of many unsavory characters is to ensure that Donald Trump doesn’t get re-elected.
  • BLM & Antifa members are communists who have seized this unique moment in history to try to force a revolution to destroy capitalism and bring in their ideal Marxist system.
  • Career criminals have realized that with all of the mayhem & confusion abound, this is the perfect opportunity to steal, attack and even murder anyone in convenient proximity.
  • Democrat politicians have conveniently downplayed the disorder and violence under the belief that average Americans would blame Trump for it, thus hurting him and helping their party.
  • The Leftist MSM, who have long been in cahoots with the Democrats, have accepted their marching orders and obscured & spun the narrative and/or outright lied about what has been happening on the streets.  For they know that their NPC audience will lap up every single thing they broadcast, no matter how preposterous.

Please poke holes in this theory or enhance it further.
