ELECTION TAMPERING: In 2021, an election worker tallying votes on paper realized that hundreds of ballots removed from a Dominion’s Image Cast Precinct (ICP) tabulator did not get counted, despite the fact that said tabulator never signaled that a problem had occurred.

Further investigation showed seven of the 18 tabulators used in that election had miscounted hundreds of ballots. The State of Tennessee, the EAC, and the two accredited entities that test voting machines (Pro V&V and SLI Compliance) investigated and were able to repeat the problem, but not find the root cause. So they called in Dominion Voting Systems and determined it was due to “erroneous code” but had no idea how it could have gotten into the system after the software had been certified.

And now, the same problem has been found in 64 out of 66 machines used in Georgia in 2020 and 2021 elections.

Meanwhile, Fulton County, Pennsylvania has filed a lawsuit against Dominion Voting Systems for “breach of contract” after an investigation by Wake Technology Services of West Chester, PA, found numerous significant issues with the machines. These included ballot scanning errors, non-certified database tools installed on the system (!), and log files showing an external IP address had accessed the machines and that an unauthorized “python script” had been installed after the certification date. The latter two significant breaches showed up on the same machines.

FAUXTUS: The old fool is going to release 10 million more barrels of oil from our Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to bring gas prices down a few cents and try to get a few Dems elected in November. This will bring our SPR down to levels not seen since 2010, when Obama did the same damn thing.

The SPR is for emergencies, but Dems, being Dems, figure other people’s resources have only one function – i.e., buy them votes. So he shut down the XL pipeline and is draining our reserves. I’m thinking it’s all a deliberate effort on the part of the Anti-Christ to ensure that, when war breaks out, we’ll be helpless.

FIRST LADY: After airing 10 episodes that got awful reviews, Showtime has canceled plans for a second season. The series may have garnered Emmy nominations from whoever it is that decides such things, but it only had a 43% critics rating and a 44% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I need to remind myself that schadenfreude is a sin.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD: CLICK https://twitter.com/EITC_Official/status/1576967937407057921 [1:29] to see how PP is working to make up income they’re losing because Roe is no more. This is truly evil. Puberty blockers prevent maturation of eggs and sperm, which means sterility. The snake oil salesmen pimping gender transitioning to minors tell the moms and dads that they must get their kids these “treatments” or they’ll off themselves. But the drug company literature lists “increased depression and thoughts of suicide” as common side effects of the drugs, which I’m guessing said salesmen do not point out to the moms and dads.

CLIMATE: They say that 536 CE was the worst year to be alive. Famine was widespread during what has proven to be the coldest year in the last 2300 years. It also inflicted a lot of weird weather on folks around the world. For example, in China, it snowed during the summer, while in South America, they had three months of heavy rain followed by three months of drought. Historians don’t agree on the cause, but we can fershure rule out human fossil fuels!

MEDIA: Two days ago, The New York Slime published a highly slanted piece about a stoopid conspiracy theory that right-wingers in tinfoil hats had about the CEO of a small American election software company named Konnech. Today, said CEO has been arrested for exactly what the “conspiracy nutjobs” said he’d done.

The Feast of Divine Mercy and Yom Kippur

St. Faustina Kowalska (1905-1938) was a simple, uneducated nun from Poland who received numerous messages from Jesus about His Divine Mercy. Jesus called her “the secretary of My mercy” and asked that the image (above) be painted.

He also told her, “I do not want to punish aching mankind, but I desire to heal it, pressing it to My Merciful Heart” (Diary, 1588).

Through her, Jesus promised us, “Souls who spread the honor of My mercy I shield through their entire lives as a tender mother her infant, and at the hour of death I will not be a Judge for them, but the Merciful Savior” (Diary, 1075).

This year, the Feast of St. Faustina coincides with Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement when Jews mark the day God forgave the Hebrews of the Exodus for their sinful creation and worship of a golden calf. The similarity of the themes of Yom Kippur and Divine Mercy are striking.

This annual fast day is the highest of holy days in the Jewish calendar. The Chabad web page says, “For the duration of Yom Kippur, we are elevated to an angelic state, one with G-d, each other, and ourselves. At its conclusion, we are confident that our shortcomings have been forgiven by G-d, just as we have forgiven our fellows.”

There was so much “going to hell in a hand basket” news in today’s feed that I decided to stick it all here so you can skip it all in one go.

ABORTION: CLICK (or not) https://twitter.com/katie4louisiana/status/1576980407849046017 [1:15] to see Katie Darling pimp for abortion rights while showing herself giving birth. Yeah, you really want to skip it. She’s running for Steve Scalise’s seat in Congress.

Meanwhile, Michigan’s Gov. Gretchen “COVID Jackboot” Whitmer, who is running for re-election, sent out these two tweets yesterday. Check out the time stamps.

“Our kids are our future — and I’m fighting for them. By closing the school funding gap and investing in public education, we’re giving our students the support they need to thrive. 5:17 PM”

“As long as I’m governor, I will fight like hell to defend access to abortion in Michigan. 6:32 PM”

DRAG PEDAGOGY: The above allegedly scholarly article pretends to present an academic basis for exposing preschool children to men who dress up as women. The authors are an assistant professor of Gender & Sexuality Research in Education and Little Miss Hot Mess, a drag performer and board member for Drag Queen Story Hour, author of the children’s book The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish, and Ph.D. candidate in Media, Culture, and Communication.

Sample: “We propose that DQSH offers a particular kind of queer framework – what we call drag pedagogy – for teaching and learning that extends beyond traditional approaches to LGBT curricular inclusion. The themes within drag pedagogy, applicable beyond the context of drag itself, move away from vocabulary lessons and the token inclusion of LGBT heroes to begin to engage deeper understandings of queer cultures and envision new modes of being together. We emphasize that drag pedagogy resists didactic instruction and is not prescriptive. Instead, it artfully invites children into building communities that are more hospitable to queer knowledge and experience.”

IOW, let’s just skip all that reading, writing, and arithmetic crap and get right down to grooming little kids to be unfit for the Kingdom of Heaven.

GEORGIA: Michael Deon Wash has been sentenced to 75 years in prison after pleaded guilty to the abuse and murder of his 7-year-old daughter, Kamarie. The little girl’s body was found floating in Lake Allatoona. Her hands had been burned in an apparent effort to make it more difficult for her to be identified. Kamarie’s cause of death was determined to have been blunt force trauma. Investigators learned that Wash and his live-in girlfriend had regularly tormented and withheld food from Kamarie. On the day of her death, Wash had beaten her until her jaw broke. Wash has suddenly decided he identifies as a woman. I’m guessing it’s so he can avoid male prison where child predators are universally despised, and enjoy the perks of living with captive sex partners and punching bags.

GERMANY: A gay rights organization in Berlin is about to launch a “Diverse Living Place.” It will feature 69 apartments (69? Ew!) for “homosexual, bisexual, transsexual and intersex (LGBTI*)” people. Among the services will be two daycare facilities to accommodate approximately 90 children in total. They will have a specialized focus on LGBT education. One of three people on the board overseeing the organization is an academic with a lengthy history of normalizing pedophilia.

OKLAHOMA: Brandon Herd is being held on a $210,000 bond after breaking into a woman’s hotel room, beating the woman inside with a gun, then raping her twice … all while wearing women’s clothes. When police apprehended him, he was wearing a black wig with pink headband, floral crop-top, and black skirt. In addition to the rape and robbery charges, Herd is also facing a charge related to failing to register as a sex offender — indicating he has a previous conviction for sex crimes.

UK: A serial pedophile named John Stephen Dixon (58) was sentenced for 30 counts of sexual abuse of five girls and two boys between 1989 and 1996. The youngest of the victims was just 7 years old at the time. In 2004, Dixon suddenly decided he identifies as a women and was moved to a women’s prison where he has been housed with women, many of whom have themselves been the victims of child sexual abuse.

Recently, he was transferred to a different wing after it was learned that he had starting an abusive relationship with a woman who suffers from learning disabilities and mental health issues. Many of these trannies moving from male to female prisons are biologically intact and have a history of sexually abusing others. The staff say they simply cannot keep the genuinely female prisoners safe from them. The authorities are way, Way, WAY too focused on being woke to give a crap.

VAXXX: Nothing says “We care about public health” like ridiculing dead people (and ignoring the FACT that a whole lot of vaxxxed individuals are also six feet under now). Tweeters had a few things to say:

  • “I missed a cancer diagnosis.”
  • “I was isolated and felt hopeless.”
  • “I overdosed.”
  • “I was stuck at home with my abuser.”
  • “I was scared to go to the hospital when I needed help.”
  • “My kids are noticeably behind in school.”
  • “I gained 25 lbs.”
  • “Where’s the fentanyl graves?”
  • ”I followed all the precautions, still got it, and was fine a week later.”
  • “Glad they stand with Ukraine. The virtue wouldn’t be complete without it.”
  • “Working for the CDC is not something to be proud of.”

1A: The American Medical Association, American Academy of Pediatrics, and Children’s Hospital Association wrote a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland calling on the Justice Department to “investigate the organizations, individuals, and entities” that are “provoking” outrage at medical personnel who perform radical gender surgeries on minors. Last year, the National School Board Association did the same thing about parents who objected to CRT and mask mandates. This is now the Left’s playbook.

2A: In 2004, Alfred Morin traveled from his home state of Massachusetts to Washington, D.C., with his handgun. He possessed a valid Massachusetts License to Carry Firearms but was unaware that District of Columbia laws prohibited him from exercising his right to carry.

At the American Museum of Modern History, he saw a sign prohibiting firearms and approached a guard to inquire about checking his gun. He was arrested and charged him with carrying a pistol without a license, possession of an unregistered firearm, and unlawful possession of ammunition! Despite the fact that he had a Massachusetts license for his registered-in-Massachusetts gun which (duh) comes with ammo, he pleaded guilty.

In 2018, he applied in his Massachusetts home town for a permit to buy a new gun. I’m guessing he was shocked when his application was denied, because a Massachusetts law imposes a lifetime ban on new gun purchases for anyone who has been convicted of a nonviolent misdemeanor that involved the possession or use of guns. Said misdemeanor, of course, was his ignorant mistake in trying to be a good little Do Be and abide by a (probably unconstitutional) no-gun rule at a museum in D.C. which (also probably unconstitutionally) refused to acknowledge his legal-in-Massachusetts gun.

A federal appeals court upheld the Catch-22 ruling, but now SCOTUS has looked at it and told them to reconsider their finding in light of their landmark June 23 decision in New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. Bruen. In that case, SCOTUS recognized a constitutional right to bear firearms in public for self-defense and struck down New York’s law that required an applicant to demonstrate “proper cause” to obtain a license to carry a concealed handgun in public. The court also found that gun restrictions must be deeply rooted in American history if they are to survive constitutional scrutiny.

Since Bruen, SCOTUS has reversed federal appeals court decisions that upheld gun restrictions in California, Hawaii, Maryland, and New Jersey.

AID: Both Florida Senators and all 16 of Florida’s Republican House members opposed a pork-laden bill that allocated a tiny percentage to Hurricane Ian relief. Leftie jerknalist news sources headlined their opposition as, “Florida Senators Request More Federal Aid Despite Not Voting For Hurricane Relief.”

FAUXTUS: ITA.

FLORIDA: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=761044324983736 [:18]. Hurricane Ian knocked out power to 2.6 million customers across Florida. Since then, crews have been feverishly working and state officials hope that, by Sunday, power will be restored to customers whose power lines were damaged, but not destroyed.

IMPLICIT BIAS: Health care workers in some areas are being forced to attend training courses which are grounded in the belief that white people are inherently racist and so will naturally treat white patients better. The solution is for whites to learn to give preferential treatment to non-whites. White doctors, nurses, and health care workers who refuse to attend the course and/or refuse to admit to their alleged racism can not obtain a license or work in the profession.

MEDIA: “Over the last week, the mainstream news media claimed that hurricanes are becoming more frequent & intense, but they’re not, as the data clearly show. What’s more, it’s clear that the media are engaging in *deliberate* misinformation. These aren’t innocent mistakes.” – Michael Shellenberger

For example, an article at the Financial Times claimed that NOAA data show hurricane frequency is on the rise. But NOAA says, “There is essentially no long-term trend in hurricane counts.”

PENNSYLVANIA: Senatorial candidate and stroke-survivor John Fetterman’s campaign praised his sweat suits and tattoos as signs that he is kicking authority in the gonads. CLICK https://twitter.com/JohnFetterman/status/1575658418307735552 [:13].

And when MSNBC’s Chris Hayes asked him how he’s doing, Fetterman responded, “I’m doing fantastic. And, and uh, it’s not about ehh kicking balls uh in the authority.” CLICK https://twitter.com/SteveGuest/status/1576025274004619266 [:13].

SON OF MAN: [7:48] – Fascinating conversation!

Mark 14:62 (NIV): “’I am,’ said Jesus. ‘And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.’”

Daniel 7:13-14 (NIV0: “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.”

VAXXX: In a single study of 10,277 breastfeeding women who got a booster jab, 121 infants had problems afterwards… but the nature of these problems has not been disclosed. The researchers concluded that the boosters are “well tolerated” among lactating individuals. Most of said researchers are sponsored by vaccine companies, two specifically by companies that manufacture the ‘rona jab.

TOLERANCE: On Friday, Richard Harvey (74) was charged with felonious assault, careless discharge of a weapon causing injury, and reckless use of a firearm in the shooting of Joan Jacobson (84), a pro-life activist who was going door-to-door to educate voters. Harvey claims Jacobson had refused to leave their property and was being “hostile, belligerent, and antagonistic” when he fired off a “warning shot.” His second shot, he claims, “accidentally” hit the woman.

Jacobson, who is not only 12 years his senior, but also a mere five feet tall and 120 lbs, says she had begun leaving and was shot just as she turned to ask Harvey’s wife to stop yelling at her. The bullet entered the top of her right shoulder and exited out her upper back near her spine. She says, “They didn’t say anything. I didn’t say anything. I just headed back to my car and tried to ascertain if I could drive … I didn’t feel lightheaded or like I was going to pass out or anything. I thought, ‘I gotta get out of here.’ I got into the car and they were standing by the sidewalk, I looked through the car window, and I had a thought that went through my mind, I thought, ‘This guy is going to shoot me again through the window of the car!’ He didn’t, and I was able to get the car started, get into gear, get on the road.”

Jacobson’s lawyer says, “There was no justification for shooting Ms. Jacobson. Mr. Harvey admitted firing a warning shot, so he knew the gun was loaded when he pointed it at my client. If it was truly an accident, why did neither of the Harveys express any remorse or even offer to assist Ms. Jacobson or call 911 immediately after shooting her? The answer is obvious: it was not an accident and Mr. Harvey should be held accountable.”

BERKLEY: The University of Californication charges parents big bucks to turn their kids into anti-semitic racists. First, they opened The Person of Color Theme House, a five-story, 30-room home for “marginalized students of color.” It has become known for excluding white and biracial-but-too-white guests of residents. Residents are also not allowed to bring relatives into the house if said relatives don’t share the management’s mandated left-think.

Now the School of Law has added “No Jews Allowed.” They began this new academic year by amending bylaws to exclude any and all speakers that support Israel or Zionism. Berkeley Law’s Dean Erwin Chemerinsky, a progressive Zionist, has observed that he himself would be banned under this standard, as would 90% of his Jewish students. But I’m quite sure that the divisiveness is entirely the fault of those stupid Jews who won’t stop their wrong-think so they can be all unity and peace with the tolerant Jew haters.

CAPITALISM: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xrf2j0YQFQA to hear a dimwitted college student declare that capitalism doesn’t work. I can easily add my two cents of personal experience to what Ben Shapiro said. In 1965 and again in 1972, I had the incredible privilege of traveling behind the Iron Curtain.

In Budapest, a lady stopped us and asked if the scar on my leg was from the war. I asked my mother, “What war?” She showed me the bullet holes in the building we were standing beside and told me they’d had a war there. The idea of people having to live through a war in their own home town blew my little 11-year-old mind away.

Later, when I was 18, I got to tour Leningrad and Moscow. The tour guide told us how much she hated being forced to work when all she wanted was to be a SAHM to her toddler. And she didn’t even have much choice in jobs. They said, “This or this”, and she said, “I chose tour guide, because I thought I’d hate it less than the other one.” She begged us to give her the paperbacks we’d gotten to read on the plane and the maid in the hotel wanted to buy my clothes. We weren’t allowed to sell anything and I was pretty sure my mom would’ve had a cow if I’d given my brand new clothes to a stranger, but honestly, I wish I’d been able to do it.

The women’s clothing was all so poor in quality and it all looked alike. My current dentist was 5 years old and living in Moscow when I was there. She has told me a little about her life before she and her husband got out, about sharing an apartment with other families, because housing was so scarce. And when she was engaged, she stood in line for hours and hours and hours to get a chance at a wedding dress. Nobody was allowed in with her, not even her mom. And the selection was extremely limited, as in, “Buy it or don’t buy it. But that’s all the choice you’re going to get.” Everybody carried around lists of names and sizes, because whenever you saw a line, you just got in it and bought whatever you could provided it wasn’t sold out before you got there.

FAUXTUS: CLICK https://twitter.com/tomselliott/status/1575902223246278666 [1:42] to see an excellent supercut set to The Wanderer. FYI: I got creeped out by :30 and turned it off.

NORTH DAKOTA: After Shannon Brandt (41) ran down Cayler Ellington (18) for being a “right wing extremist”, he was charged with vehicular homicide and released on bail.

But then investigators found little to no damage to the front of Brandt’s vehicle, while the autopsy showed that Ellington wasn’t killed by being hit with a vehicle, but by being run over by one while he was on the ground.

Also, Ellington’s phone showed he called his mother twice. She says that, at 2:34 a.m., he asked if he should maybe call his cousins or posse, then again at 2:42 a.m. saying something to the effect of they are after me or he is after me.

The Foster County State’s Attorney has upgraded its charges against Brandt to Murder (maximum penalty: life imprisonment without parole). Thankfully, the thug has been re-arrested and is behind bars.

PENNSYLVANIA: CLICK https://twitter.com/DontWalkRUN/status/1566961736271499265 [:47] to hear the post-stroke, Democrat candidate who wears sweats to campaign and has a giant, unexplained lump on his neck say, “Please understand…the stakes in this race, send me to Washington DC, to send, so I can work with Senator Casey…and I can champion the union way of life in…Jersey…excuse me, in DC…thank you, thank you very much, and it’s an honor…I live 8 minutes away from here…and when I leave tonight I got…3 miles away Doctor Oz in his mansion in New Jersey…you’ve got a friend and you’ve got an ally, send me to Washington DC…thank you steelworkers.”

VFAUXTUS: Yes, honey. I can see the end zone from the 50 yard line also. She was at Observation Post Ouellette at Camp Bonifas in South Korea, which is apparently where they take all the politicians. At the link there are photos of Obama, Biden, and Clinton going “ooh ahh look I can see it” with the binocs, as well as photos of Trump, Pence, and Sanders scowling at the coiled razor wire the commies have strung across their border.

GRAMMY NOTES: Magritte said his most famous painting was about “the visible that is hidden and the visible that is present.” Me, I see an anti-christ. “Son of Man” is a biblical title for the Messiah, which I believe is what the Anti-Christ will claim himself to be. The man in the painting strikes me as a guy who has taken such a big bite of the Eden apple that he has totally subsumed the face God gave him. The super respectable dress, with right hand in sun, left in shadow, make me think of a con artist.

Ginni Thomas and the J6 Committee

The Kangaroo Court ordered Ginni Thomas, wife of SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas, to appear and answer their questions about her activities in regard to the 2020 election. Her testimony was delayed until this week by her need to recover from hip replacement surgery. Following her opening statement, she answered all the questions the committee asked her.

“I am here voluntarily to answer questions about my activities regarding the 2020 election, which, I think you will find were minimal and mainstream. However, as my counsel has expressed, I am concerned that there may be more than a few questions about my husband’s work, which I do not believe is within the scope of this committee’s jurisdiction.

“Since I was the Nebraska College Republican Chair in my twenties, long before I met my husband in 1986, I have been active in political/public policy work. Moreover, while I have a law degree, I am not licensed to practice law, nor have I ever practiced law, nor have I ever worked on any litigation at the Supreme Court or any court for that matter. I work only in the political lane.

“As Justice Breyer said this last week, it is 2022 and women can have professional and separate careers from their judicial spouses. Since he became a judge in 1990, my husband has only worked in the legal arena, not politics. I can guarantee that my husband has never spoken with me about pending cases at the Court. It’s an iron-clad rule in our home.

“Additionally, he is uninterested in politics. And I generally do not discuss with him my day-to-day work in politics, the topics I am working on, who I am calling, emailing, texting, or meeting.

“Regarding the 2020 election, I did not speak with him at all about the details of my volunteer campaign activities. And I did not speak with him at all about the details of my post-election activities, which were minimal, in any event.

“I am certain I never spoke with him about any of the legal challenges to the 2020 election, as I was not involved with those challenges in any way. And I know he was completely unaware of my texts with Mark Meadows until this Committee leaked them to the press while he was in a hospital bed fighting an infection.

“Let me also add, it is laughable for anyone who knows my husband to think I could influence his jurisprudence – the man is independent and stubborn, with strong character traits of independence and integrity.”

This is what the Meathead got out of all that:

The Left has told us, loudly and often, that questioning the results of the Biden election is treason and that anyone who says Biden is an illegitimate president is an insurrectionist who threatens the very foundation of our democracy. I heard an exorcist say the Democratic Party is infested with a spirit of lying and hypocrisy. Rob Reiner is a case in point. Here are his tweets about Donald J. Trump’s election and administration:

Nov. 4, 2016: The Russians can collude with DT. The FBI can collude with DT. The American people won’t have their democracy stolen from them. HRC WILL WIN.

Dec. 22, 2016: Russia hacks our election to help DT. FBI violates Hatch Act and colludes with Trump. He is an illegitimate POTUS. #Jan20ImpeachmentDay

Jan. 16, 2017: John Lewis didn’t call DT illegitimate in the abstract. He said it because of Russia’s intervention and growing evidence of treason. #MSMdig

Apr. 4, 2017: They stole the election, but they will not steal our democracy. #trumprussia

Jun 27, 2018: The illegitimate POTUS will now try to ram a SCOTUS nominee through before Nov. So much for that McConnell rule. Calling on two principled Republicans to stand up against tyranny.

Jan. 8, 2019: The conspiracy heats up. Just when the desperate liar tries to bullshit US with his non existent border crisis, we learn that his campaign chairman was sharing valuable polling data with Russian intelligence. An illegitimate POTUS pushes an illegitimate crisis. #TrumpResign

May 1, 2019: Donald Trump is an illegitimate President. He welcomed the help of a foreign enemy power and aided & abetted in stealing an election. He covered up his 100 contacts with that enemy & obstructs the investigation into that enemy’s attack on US. #ImpeachmentNOW

May 25, 2019: We have an illegitimate President. He is lawless & incompetent. He threatens our security. This Memorial Day let us honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice by fighting to protect our Democracy from this foreign backed domestic enemy. #ImpeachTrump

Aug. 23, 2020: The original sin of America is slavery. The original sin of Trump’s Presidency is a stolen election. For the sake of equal justice, human dignity, and the preservation of Democracy we can not let him steal another. To overcome we must overwhelm. VOTE!

BACK THE BLUE: CLICK https://twitter.com/MrSkweeze/status/1575306709639499778 [:41] to see newly released body camera video showing how a marksman ended a 16-minute shooting spree in Tacoma on Aug. 28. The perp apparently shot at a relative, then when cops arrived, started shooting at them. Christopher Munn ended the gun battle when he took down the shooter with a single bullet shot from 183 yards away.

BORDER: DHS reports that the Venezuelan government is purposely freeing prison inmates and sending them north in migrant caravans. They include rapists and murderers.

The Biden administration has awarded $41.3 million in federal contracts to the Acacia Center for Justice, a Washington-based nonprofit that has also received millions from George Soros’ Open Society Foundation. The Acacia Center helps illegals fight deportation.

FAUCI: Over the span of the pandemic, the Fauci household’s disclosed net worth increased from $7.6 million (Jan. 1, 2019) to over $12.6 million (Dec. 31, 2021). While small businesses were crushed into oblivion by his lockdowns, he was raking in obscene profits. May God have mercy on his soul.

PHILADELPHIA: Democrat and former U.S. Rep. Michael “Ozzie” Myers (79) has been sentenced to 30 months in prison, three years supervised release, and ordered to pay $100,000 in fines for his part in orchestrating ballot stuffing between 2014 and 2018. The judge said the harsh sentence was because Myers had already served 3 years for a similar crime back in the 1980s and had apparently not learned his lesson. Well, why would he bother? The Philadelphia Democrat Machine rewards corruption!

In 1986, Democrat Councilman Lee Beloff was convicted on charges of conspiracy, voting more than once and giving false information on voter registrations to elderly people living in a nursing home. (My, my, doesn’t that sound familiar.) Beloff had previously received a gubernatorial pardon for interfering with a poll watcher so he could run for public office. After serving 6 years of his 10 year sentence, Beloff got out and became a Democrat ward chairman. “We stay loyal to our people,” a local Democratic ward leader said. IOW, cheat good and we’ll take care of youse.

The third guy in the photo above is Bob Brady, Chairman of the Philadelphia Democratic Party. He’s famous for spending 20 years in the House, having won every election with over 80% of the vote. He only stepped down after the FBI found his campaign had paid his opponent $90,000 to drop out of the race. Two of his aides were sent to jail in the case, but not Brady. After getting out, one of the aides went right back to working with Brady and other Democrat leaders on the fight to help Biden win Pennsylvania. Gee, I wonder how they’d go about doing that …

TREASON: The woman and her husband/wife? above have been charged with trying to give sensitive military medical records to a Russian agent who was actually an undercover FBI agent. Major Lee, the Army’s first trans officer, is an internist at Fort Bragg, NC. His/her wife is an instructor of anesthesiology at Johns Hopkins.

VAXXX: The FDA is refusing a FOIA request for autopsy reports for the 9,800 some people whose deaths following a ‘rona jab were reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). They claim “unwarranted invasion of personal privacy,” but any and all identifying information would be easy to redact. Kinda makes you wonder what they’re hiding.

GRAMMY NOTES: I was having a really hard day when this came out of my paintbrush.
