We love Troy Balderson...

He didn't come across well when he spoke at Trump's rally, in my opinion. I understand he's not a big fan of Trump (he's said to be a Kay-suck acolyte). Maybe he will change his tune now that Trump generously dragged him across the finish line.

If the balance stays about where it is, the democrats will continue with what they've been doing. If they actually lose seats, they'll start getting their RINO pals to cooperate with them and make deals they figure Trump will accept.

Look at the anti-Trust violation currently taking place as multiple companies act in concert without cause to shut down Info Wars. All the companies involved have two things in common, 1) they're in bed with the democrat fascists in this country and 2) they're cooperating with the Chinese to build censorship into their Chinese versions of their platforms along with "social" scores being tracked for all users.

Trade sanctions are hurting China and they realize they have to either agree with Trump or use some sort of leverage they don't have in the trade sphere. So, they're fighting where they're strong, in the media sphere where they can threaten all the big media companies, that's Internet, Hollywood, US print media, and US broadcast or cable media, and get them to act against Americans exactly the same way the Chinese government acts against Chinese citizens.

There's a major shutdown of Independent media who rely on the major platforms coming and it's being managed by the Chinese who are telling Apple, Google, Twitter, and so on exactly what to do and exactly when to do it. The Chinese paid out huge sums of money for favors they were promised and the democrats are in no position to deliver on those promises. What's worse, the odds of a "blue wave" of sufficient size to totally halt Trump in his tracks are now somewhere between slim & none. What's a disgruntled totalitarian State under the trade sanctions gun to do without the traitors they bought and paid for in place to hobble or coerce the President?

That's where their huge investments in the US come into play. Alex Jones is a shot across the bow, a warning to Trump that the Chinese can take down every outlet that supported trump during the 2016 campaign before the 2018 mid-term elections unless he softens his stance on trade issues and keep those outlets silenced for the balance of Trump's term in office.

Will anyone in Congress give a damn that this is all a clear violation of anti-Trust law, a violation so obvious that's an open challenge to Congress and Trump? You can bet the companies openly thumbing their noses at the law in order to start this censorship campaign have a plan for how to proceed if Congress behaves like cowards, the most likely reaction, as well as a huge media campaign already on the shelf if someone dares to suggest that these companies should obey existing law.

This is a great example of asymmetric warfare being waged.

Alas, most people don't dig any deeper than their emotions take them rather than thinking very deeply about what's going on. Those "Chinese" versions of the major Internet platforms are intended to be the international standard, not China specific, and this is the first step toward that goal.

There's a wild card in the wings, one that will most likely remain in the wings, but never underestimate Donald Trump and the contacts he's made over the past two decades. Contacts that might just come to his aid and upset the carefully maneuvered apple cart of the current big boys who think they're invincible.

As always, JMHo, and we all know what opinions are like.

WE, THE PEOPLE, ARE TIRED OF ACCEPTING THE THINGS WE ARE TOLD CANNOT BE CHANGED.

We deserve better! Our President intends to see WE are at last served. NOT tired of winning!

Thank You, JESUS, for giving us hope that change is possible.
Please, continue Your work in helping us.
Amen!

As of 6:46 AM, Kobach was up by 600 votes with 95% reporting.

I'm not sure why the other 5% haven't yet reported.

I went to the Kansas website but no explanation as why it is taking so long to report a few thousand votes.

I am royally pissed off.
Not at president Trump, mind you. Washington State primary elections were called for the US Senate race by Seattle news outlets not an hour after the polls closed.
If you recall, Washington state has mail-in ballots. That means that any ballot that was mailed today probably won’t be at their individual County elections offices for another day or two. How in the bloody hell can a race be called when not even all of the ballots have been counted yet?

The two candidates that the Seattle news outlets called for the US Senate race were the incumbent, Maria Cantwell, and the former State Republican party chair Susan Hutchinson who was also a Seattle news anchor. Since Washington’s vote count system says that the top two vote-getters, no matter what party they belong to, are the ones that advance to the general election, those two are going on. Except... I really believe they need to let all the votes be counted in case the third-place person, who happens to be a pro-Trump Republican named Keith Swank, who I voted for, actually may get more votes.

I don’t want to see any news outlets call the races until all the ballots have been counted. I personally don’t think Hutchinson, though a Republican, supports President Trump in any way, shape, or form. And yes, I know that this is the Soviet Republic of Washington, but at least I’d like to think that people that support our president might actually have a voice, even in this state.
