Morning MM
Yes I’m comparing the EARLY DAYS OF CAREER. Not necessarily their intelligence etc.
Working in corporate world is difficult and going on own is how you prove your value and talent
Tucker front and center.
When you’re working in climate of control who you are is often never seen
A person who make bold statements whether they be racial, anti-Jew , misogyny - oriented will pay the price career wise
Just my opinion fwiw
Those are all excellent Norsky. Sobering truth

Watching @SpeakerJohnson abandon his conservative principles to cut a bad budget deal with Democrats so soon after Kevin McCarthy was ousted for the very same thing should tell you: the GOP does not actually exist.
Our two-party system is a lie.
A new non-corrupt party is needed for the dozen non corrupt politicians that exist. Unfortunately too many don’t care.
It’s MAGA vs Deep State
NEW: Frank Luntz Warns CNN Seizing Donald Trump’s Properties Will Backfire: “You Are Going to Elect Donald Trump”
“He’s going to go up in the polls just like he went up every single time they indicted him.”
“If the New York Attorney General starts to take his homes away, starts to seize his assets, it’s all going to be on camera, pundits are going to sit there and scream about this, and you’re going to create the greatest victimhood of 2024.”
“You are going to elect Donald Trump.”
“Why is Donald Trump beating Joe Biden when he’s got 85 indictments? Felonies? Trump is leading, and in the seven swing states, Trump is up by the margin of error in five out of seven; why is that happening?”
Luntz, who isn’t a Trump supporter, realizes that the American people do not want to see their country turn into a banana republic.
Americans do not want to see the party in power imprisoning political adversaries and confiscating their assets, not for clear crimes like murder or bribery, but rather based on novel and dubious interpretations of the law.
If the legal system can be weaponized against a former president, what hope does an ordinary American citizen have?

Surprise from Maher
Bill Maher SNAPS on Govt and Social Media Companies for Shutting Down COVID Debate
“They have a lot to answer for.”
MAHER: “As the years roll by, now we see that the dissenting opinions on a lot of these things were quite the RIGHT ones.”
SWISHER: “We’re not going to know perfectly, but go ahead.”
MAHER: “Okay. But we should have been able to argue about whether it came from a lab, which we weren’t, things like that, natural immunity, whether it was better to go to the beach and get sun and fresh air, as I would have said as opposed to sitting home and day drinking and putting on weight. They never mentioned that obesity was the biggest factor. They have a lot to answer for.”
Maher added that the doctors who wrote the Great Barrington Declaration (Bhattacharya, Kulldorff, and Gupta) are “not radicals.”
“They were saying things like, ‘We’re going too far with school closures.’ Again, I think has been proved right. My question was always, why are your doctors more important than my doctors, the ones I want to listen to? And the social media companies were in the tank with the government, as opposed to what you were just saying before ... They just did the biding of the government. That’s what the lawsuit [Missouri vs. Biden] is about.”

X post explains the Great Replacement plan: Democrats are using mass illegal migration to create a one-party state
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4226321/posts
Elon Musk recently posted what is — or should be — a devastating video ad (“infomercial?”) by Western Lensman exposing the Democrats plan to utilize The Great Replacement to solidify their power for the foreseeable future.
Please watch the video. It is well worth one minute and thirty-nine seconds of your time.
The video illuminates the Democrats’ Seven-Step Program for winning elections and obtaining a permanent majority, effectively making the United States a one-party state. (Some possible synonyms for one-party state are: authoritarian regime, autocracy, oligarchy, Marxist-Leninist regime, fascist regime, police state, people’s republic, dictatorship, and banana republic, among others.).
Whether this is a formalized plan or an ad hoc one — and I strongly believe it is the former — it is fiendishly clever and already on the verge of success.
It is no exaggeration to say that many of today’s leading Democrats are utterly amoral … if not breathtakingly immoral. Many — if not most — want nothing so much as unchallenged power in perpetuity. This corrosive lust makes them do things like attempt to throw their political opposition in jail and turn on their own citizens.
It is hard for a decent person to believe, but the truth is they are using you and I to get rid of us — or at least render us irrelevant.

Any one have or buying an EV? Shell is looking out for you
Shell To Close 1,000 Gas Stations: Here’s Why, Company Says: Aims to reallocate resources towards EV charging stations.
Thread by SeekAndFind
One of the nation’s major oil companies says it will close 1,000 gas stations.
Shell made the announcement in its 2024 Energy Transition Strategy report, saying the measure is “in response to customer needs” and aimed at reallocating those resources towards EV charging stations.
Shell said it will close 500 stations in 2024 and the other 500 in 2025.
“We believe growth in oil demand is set to slow in the second half of this decade and could start falling in the 2030s because of increasing vehicle efficiency and growth in electric vehicles,” the company stated in the report. “Today there are around 40 million such vehicles (BEVs and PHEVs) on the roads, with up to 275 million expected by 2030. “
“The availability of charging points will be critical for the growth in electric vehicles.”

Ohio Volunteers Uncover Massive Irregularities in Voter Database
American Thinker Thread by SeekAndFind
In the spring of 2021, volunteer investigators from Ohio acquired publicly available voter data for all 88 counties and started their analysis. Over the next year the researchers found hundreds of thousands of records in their state’s voter rolls with irregular data for which they couldn’t identify consistent explanations, no matter who they asked.
In late summer of 2022, they reached out to Marly Hornik, co-leader of New York Citizens Audit, whose team had identified similar inaccuracies in the New York State data.
[SNIP]
The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 requires election rolls to be accurate. The Ohio team had collected more than a million pieces of evidence of apparent violations of law that called into serious question the accuracy of Ohio’s statewide voter roll database at the time of the 2022 general election and its subsequent certification.
The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution stipulates that only legally qualified voters may vote. The Ohio team uncovered evidence that thousands of voters in Ohio had apparently registered before they were born!

Grief.
The word holds a heavy weight at a time of joyous festivity and lights. Family and friends often cannot understand the need to skip the tradition of gathering at one house, bustling with happy children and family and friends. Coping with raw emotions that may feel like molasses or a tidal wave can feel debilitating and overwhelming. It’s perfectly okay to spend Christmas in a quieter environment with just a few loved ones, perhaps, or alone.
Just Say, “No!”
Normalcy is ideal on most days, except special occasions, events, and especially significant holidays. It’s okay to eliminate putting up the tree and other decorations. No one expects Christmas cards or the usual smells of baked goods emanating from the home. This year, it’s perfectly acceptable to take a break from tradition and engage in activities that provide comfort. Reach out and share your wishes early. It’s essential for family and friends not to challenge the request, but agree.
Plan a Get-Away
A change of scenery can bring inspiration and well-needed reflection. Traveling to the mountains or the beach for an overnight trip or spending a few days visiting several different destinations can bring some solace and a retreat from exhaustion. Escaping pain, even for a short time, often helps.
Honor Your Loved One
Grievers need to say their loved ones name out loud; sharing and hearing stories brings the person to the present. Choose a time and a location to gather, light a candle, and share fond memories. Each person can prepare a way to honor their loved one, whether by poem, story, or artwork. These “normal” moments are well-needed and therapeutic.
A Place of Comfort
A house interior has too many memories, but there is a great spirit to be found among the sky, trees, wind, and flying creatures, like butterflies and dragonflies. Grievers can find a peaceful calm if such a place exists outdoors. In a secluded area, consider creating a place to sit and pray. It may include a bench, plants, and a lantern. In moments when grievers feel the need to connect with their loved ones, a quiet space is steps away!
Connect with Other Grievers
Sometimes a room full of people can feel quite lonely. Grievers often believe they alone hold the burden of a heavy sadness that few understand. It is a gift to meet another person who has a similar story, and together grievers can confirm feelings, identify what is their “new” normal,” and build well-needed connections. Only grievers know if they are ready or want to attend a therapy group. (Ask for help in finding a group to suit your needs.)
Acknowledge Symptoms
Exhaustion consumes the body and triggers waves of anxiety and potentially new symptoms. Many grievers choose to ignore their body’s blatant signals and focus on getting through moment by moment. It’s encouraging when a griever decides to share problems, such as frequent panic attacks, insomnia, or energy loss. It is the initial call for help that a Band-Aid cannot fix. Start talking about solutions to help during those moments and recommend scheduling an appointment with a doctor. By listening and remaining available, family and friends can help to mend a broken heart.
Breathe
Grievers need to actively engage in self-care moments by stopping, closing their eyes, and taking deep breaths. While the world moves at a significant speed, grievers discover their own pace. Reminders, such as “Be gentle with yourself” and “It’s okay to cry!” reaffirm a griever’s need to feel normal.
Be patient, family and friends. Sometimes, a quiet Christmas brings peace!
