The Hope is in the Lines

Today we start with the Light from the Magic Wand


We have lots of positives to celebrate this week.

Early voting has started across the country
The blue wave is coming!

Georgia had a record-breaking first day of early voting on Tuesday, October 15. 

Georgia's previous first-day record was for 2020, with a first-day total of 136,000 votes. This year's first day saw a smashing 187,973 by 2 p.m. and by end of day, over 300,000 votes had been cast – more than twice as many as the last record. Amazing!

And one of those votes was by Jimmy Carter, 100-year-old resident of Georgia. He had been holding on to life in order to vote for Kamala Harris. He fulfilled his dream! 

I hope Mr. Carter can see her become elected, and then to be sworn in! 

Another Georgia voter who cast an early vote was 81-year-old Betty Cartledge. Her husband, who discouraged her from voting, died last year. This year Betty voted for the first time. She didn't disclose who she voted for. I hope she voted hard to make up for the dirty her hubby did to her. Go, Betty, go! 

A historic number of first-day ballots was also cast in New Mexico.

Thank you, Big Sister Resister Pagrs, for the photo!

So far, almost 8,000,000 votes have already been cast across the country - with only 19 days to go!

See NBC's graphic below (accurate as of the time this was written), and follow this link for latest numbers. It's a pretty cool tool. You can filter by age, gender, party.

Here's Little Sister Resister watching Georgia's early voting numbers come in.


This is an election of turnout. The bigger the turnout, the better chance for blue. Long lines are exciting!

Must certify
Speaking of Georgia, a Georgia judge ruled that election officials must count and certify the results. They cannot delay or decline to certify, even when they suspect anomalies. The judge stated that it isn't their place to judge or act on any suspected anomalies.

The same judge has blocked the 11th-hour rule that required a hand-count of every precinct's ballots in Georgia. 

And speaking of judges
Judge Tanya Chutkin today denied the Felon's motion to delay the release of the appendix items, i.e., evidence! in the January 6 case. We will get to see it tomorrow (Friday). 

Kamala Harris was strong 
She had an interview on FAUX News and was effective in pushing back against an interrupting, abrasive Brett Baier and his FAUX News talking points.

Showing up to the Snake Pit of FAUX News is a win in itself. But she held her ground in an interview peppered with interruptions and attempts to sanitize the Mango Mussolini's balderdash. The whole interview can be seen here, but these are my favorite bits. This here woman is presidential material!

Plus I love how the Momala in Kamala emerges and explains it real slow and gentle to Brett, Awwww, honey.... It's not supposed to be easy!

Then she lets him have it. Go, Kamala!

 



If you want to see the full clip of the edited version that Brett Baier showed, Kamala posted the full footage, full of "the enemy within" rhetoric, after the interview:


Kamala is showing she is strong and capable. She will assert her views and her words respectfully, but firmly. She will not back down to adversarial rhetoric.

I can imagine her speaking to world leaders about important topics, or in a room with lawmakers negotiating a bill.

This is the person I want in the White House, fighting for Americans and American interests. 


And this tickled me. She's strong everywhere!
Lookie how she handled these hecklers:


It's raining splats and logs
Get out your industrial strength umbrella. Shit keeps coming down fast and furious from the MAGAt side.

Working the fry machine
Doughnald is still obsessed with Kamala's statements that she worked at McDonald's while in college. He just can't get over it. He's about the only person in the United States who cares.

He is making good on his promise to go in to McDonald's and work a fry machine himself. This weekend, in Pennsylvania, he will disrupt the operations of a local McDonald's, don an apron, and dip the taters.

Why? 

The only logical reason is to get a free Supersize Fries and maybe a couple Big Macs too. 

More power to you, baby dude. More power to you. 



And it just keeps going. Li'l Donnie Junior doubled down on Fox: “I think my father knows the McDonald’s menu much better than Kamala Harris ever did," he said. 

Ummmm, ...I don't think that's the brag you think it is. 

The Heath Records
Kamala released her heath records this week. Predictably, they showed she is in excellent health except for occasional hives and some seasonal conjunctivitis and seasonal rhinitis. Translation: she has springtime allergies. 

Private Bonespurs of course refuses to release his records. Even if he did, he would ghost write them like he did in 2015. Remember Dr. Harold Borstein's report? "His physical strength and stamina are extraordinary. If elected, Mr. Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency."

This year, there is more gaslighting from the gasbag. It's all he knows how to do. He commented about why he is not releasing his medical records. On his social media account he posted a couple things: 

…I’ve put out more Medical Exams than any other President in History, and aced two Cognitive Exams (the Doctor stated that my “cognitive exams were exceptional!”). I am far healthier than Clinton, Bush, Obama, Biden, but especially, Kamala. Also, I am far too busy campaigning to take time, from the 22 days left, as I am using every hour, of every day, campaigning, because we have to take back our Country from the Radical Left people that are destroying it. 
…As to her completely desperate request for my Medical Statements, she is dying to see my Cholesterol (which is 180!), I have already provided them, many times, including quite recently, and they were flawless. However, I have just seen Kamala’s Report, and it is not good. According to her Doctor’s Report, she suffers from “urticaria,” defined as “a rash of round, red welts on the skin that itch intensely, sometimes with dangerous swelling.” She also has “allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis,” a very messy and dangerous situation. These are deeply serious conditions that clearly impact her functioning. Maybe that is why she can’t answer even the simplest of questions asked by 60 Minutes, and others. What is this all about? I don’t have these problems…
OMG!  She has hay fever! How can we pull her nomination?! Quick, before she gets the nuclear codes!!

All of this nonsense is just pure lies. There's nothing else to add. 

Univision Town Hall
DonOld appeared on Univision in a town hall meeting on Thursday. 

Florida citizen Ramiro Gonzalez is my new hero. He posed an important question in a great way. Watch Gonzalez's reactions. He's not buying this load of bullshit. Watch his thoughtful question, the orange turd's response, and Gonzalez's reactions below.

A day of love? A day of love??
Love these women's reactions as they consider this pile of turds:

And thank you, too, Sr. Saralegui, citizen of Arizona. Keep holding his feet to the fire about the dogs and cats!

Here's another bullshit bunch of words strung together for three long minutes in "response" to a serious question about climate change.

And this one. This one got me verklempt. This man probably picked strawberries that went into my very own mouth. He lives just an hour away from me. 

Diaper Don's answer is, predictably, from his same, tattered script. Beyond disrespectful! He doesn't know how to answer the real question. Maybe he didn't even understand the real question. And I hope the millions of Hispanic voters who watched this will see through his drivel.



Side note: can we have the interpreter pretty please read bedtime stories from now until Election Day? That voice! ❤️

Here is the whole Univision town hall with Latino voters. 

I believe this town hall is damaging to Trumplethinskin. Latino voters are a huge block, and this town hall is especially illustrative of this bag of' stinky false choice. 


FAUX News's Faux Town Hall with Women
Let's peek into this week's FAUX News Writers' Room:
Writer 1: Oh, here's a good idea! Let's have a town hall with women voters! 
Writer 2: Yeah, man! Shall we do it with the elusive "undecided" voter, with hard-hitting questions, like the audience at Univision? 

Writer 1: Or, maybe just regular off-the-street people. We could get a cross-section of everyday women's thoughts. 

Producer: Hells to the naw! We're FAUX News, dudes! Let's pack the room with his fawning minions. They should ask "questions" peppered with lines from The Supreme Leader's own screenplay! There's no need to bring substance and thoughtful people in there! In fact..... get the Georgia Federation of Republican Women on the horn. They can help us out! 
Writers in unison: Yayyyy! Keep the gene pool pure! Only Trump supporters allowed!

Producer to marketing team: Shhhh, though. Do not let anyone know that this is a MAGA Town-Hall Tickle-Fest. Just say "all women voters."

Producer to editor: Just make sure to edit out their chants of, "Trump! Trump! Trump!" Remember, we're fair and balanced, man! 
If you want to see this dripping pool of contamination, have at it. I couldn't find the whole event on YouTube, and I am kinda glad I didn't. And if you think I'm exaggerating about the planning meeting, you're wrong. 

I'll share just a couple pieces. I got the icks so bad when he called himself "the father of IVF." WTAF.



And this heartless, disgusting bit. 

The Bloomburg Interview, on the other hand: BRILLIANT
Another hero, not American, and this is probably why he was able to be so bad-ass. Here is intelligent and knowledgeable John Micklethwait interviewing the Traitor Tot in front of an audience of economists at the Economic Club of Chicago. Micklethwait torched him, all while wearing a beautiful British smirk.

Here he is asking about January 6.
And his ignorance of the way tariffs work was on display here:



Uhhhhh.... The question was about Google.


And here is my favey interaction. You can just see the toddler emerging. Arms crossed, slouched back, pouting, saying, "No, YOU'RE wrong!"




Here is the whole interview:


I still can't get over the 39-minute dance party
There is so much bizarro stuff that comes out of that man's holes, all of them, that the media and many of the rest of us just blip over the concerning stuff and shrug it off that it's Baby Hands being Baby Hands. 

It's hard to absorb and hold on to each and every concerning trait. This one, though, this is extra weird.

Can you imagine going in for an interview, and just as the boss was starting the Q & A, you say, "Let’s not do any more questions. Let’s just listen to music. Let’s make it into a music. Who the hell wants to hear questions, right?" And then you stand there, swaying and bopping around for the next half hour. 

Would you hire that person?!

This is insanity!

Vance is not dancing around the question anymore
Remember when he did his awkward and transparent pivot during the VP debate when Walz asked Prince Smarming if Dumpty lost the 2020 election? He's not dancing anymore. 

A reporter asked the direct question, "Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?" Vance answered, "On the election of 2020, I've answered this question directly a million times. No, I think there are serious problems in 2020 so did Donald Trump lose the election? Not by the words that I would use."

President Vance?
I've seen it in more than one place. There's chatter out there that The Heritage Foundation is banking on being able to apply the 25th Amendment or wait until he's convicted of a crime, thus ending a Rancid Cheeto presidency. Then they install their real candidate, JD Vance. This blogger laid out the scenario thoroughly. It's a scary thought. Vance is a scary man. 


Get on your broomsticks and ride, Resisters! We must vote the hell out of this election!!!

I don't say it enough, but deep thanks to my Sister Resisters who send me stuff! It is always appreciated!

And there are not enough thanks to Karenone for making sure all my words make sense and all my hyphens are correct!
