From my AI discussion:
🧷 THE BUTCHER’S THUMB — SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2026
GENERAL MOOD
The networks are jittery. We’re days from the election, and every producer is terrified of saying something that will age badly or hurt the democrat party. So they retreat into safe zones: polling, “threats to democracy,” economic anxiety, and legal framing. You’ll see a lot of “We’re watching this closely” and “Voters are concerned,” delivered with the usual furrowed brows.
The guest lists show they’re bracing for a chaotic week: Treasury, governors, pollsters, and a heavy dose of “Republicans under scrutiny.” Expect selective coverage, careful wording, and a whole lot of narrative management.
SHOW‑BY‑SHOW ANALYSIS
FACE THE NATION (CBS)
Bessent + Sanders + Shapiro + Becker + Salvanto is a classic CBS pre‑election cocktail.
• Bessent gives them economic framing.
• Sanders provides the progressive moral‑urgency angle.
• Shapiro is the “responsible Democrat governor” archetype.
• Becker suggests CBS wants to touch legal/media issues without getting too specific.
• Salvanto means CBS will push polling anxiety.
Expect CBS to frame the week as: “Economic uncertainty, Democratic stability, and voters worried about extremism.”
FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network)
Ron Johnson + Ro Khanna + Charles Payne is Fox’s attempt at a balanced but punchy lineup.
• Johnson brings investigations, border, and oversight.
• Khanna is the “reasonable Democrat” Fox likes to feature, but in reality, is a unreasonable radical.
• Payne signals a strong economic segment — inflation, markets, energy.
Panel: Jason Riley, Karl Rove, Jessica T.
Expect Fox to push: “Economic mismanagement, Democratic overreach, and GOP momentum heading into the final stretch.”
MEET THE PRESS (NBC)
Pritzker + Tim Scott + Raskin + Kornacki is NBC’s attempt to look balanced while still steering the narrative.
• Pritzker gives them a confident Democratic governor.
• Scott is the safe Republican — optimistic, non‑combative.
• Raskin provides the legal‑Democratic framing NBC loves.
• Kornacki brings the polling panic.
Panel: Val Demings, Nikki Haley, Ryan Nobles, Amy Walter.
Expect NBC to push: “Democracy concerns, legal stakes, and polling volatility.”
THIS WEEK (ABC)
ABC is doing something unusual: a mega‑panel of its own correspondents. They don’t want guests shaping the narrative — they want ABC shaping the narrative.
Second panel: Donna Brazile, Chris Christie, Kevin McCarthy, Heidi Heitkamp.
Expect ABC to push: “Chaos, uncertainty, and the need for responsible leadership — conveniently defined as the Democratic model.”
STATE OF THE UNION (CNN)
Don Bacon + Raphael Warnock is CNN’s attempt at “bipartisan concern.”
• Bacon gives them a moderate Republican voice.
• Warnock provides the moral‑framing sermon CNN likes.
Panel: David Urban, Kristen Soltis Anderson, Karen Finney, David Axelrod.
Expect CNN to push: “Republicans under legal and moral scrutiny, Democrats steady and compassionate.”
SUNDAY MORNING FUTURES (FNC)
Kudlow’s lineup is pure election‑week red meat:
• Sen. Tim Sheehy (R‑Mont.)
• Rep. James Comer (R‑Ky.)
• Lara Trump
• Miranda Devine
• Marc Thiessen
Expect SMF to push: “The real stories the big networks won’t touch — corruption, inflation, and institutional failures.”
⭐ WHAT’S NOT BEING COVERED
1. Brazil Presidential Runoff
Incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva narrowly "'wins" with 51.8% after keeping ONLY Leftist voting districts open way past closing time. Challenger Flávio Bolsonaro refuses to concede and reportedly leaves the country amid corruption investigations. The networks won’t touch the instability angle.
2. Israel Knesset Election Deadlock
Netanyahu’s bloc at 53 seats, opposition short of a majority, and no clear path to a coalition. A major geopolitical story — ignored because it’s too complex for election‑week framing.
3. Poland Constitutional Crisis
Riot police cordon off the Constitutional Tribunal after its president is suspended. President Nawrocki turns his flight around mid‑air to join the standoff. A serious constitutional breakdown inside a NATO ally — no coverage.
4. Alaska Senate Ballot Investigation
DOJ deploys federal law enforcement and files suit to isolate ballots ranking an independent candidate named Dan J. Sullivan after allegations of a voter‑confusion scheme. Networks won’t touch it.
5. Rep. Ilhan Omar Criminal Probe
DHS confirms a major federal investigation into Omar’s immigration history and finances following an FBI raid on her D.C. residence. The shows will bury it.
6. Massive European Civil Unrest
A third straight weekend of youth‑driven protests over inflation: 320,000 in France, clashes in Turin, rallies across 30 German cities. Too damaging to the “global stability” narrative.
7. Record Binance Crypto Heist
North Korea’s Lazarus Group executes a 20‑minute exploit stealing $6.36 billion across 10 blockchains — one of the largest financial cyberattacks in history. Zero coverage.
FINAL THUMB
They’ll talk polls, democracy, Trump, and the economy.
They’ll mostly ignore Brazil’s runoff, Israel’s deadlock, Poland’s crisis, Alaska’s ballot investigation, the Omar probe, Europe’s unrest, and the Binance heist.
As always, the real news is off‑camera.
“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!
2 Timothy 3:16-17King James Version
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
The Fake News telling President Trump what to do to get MAGA out to vote is kinda like Barak telling Trump how to build a five-star-hotel. He knows exactly what he is doing to fire up the troops and get an extra 10% in and wins elections he is not supposed to win while solidifying his base. This feels like his Presidential elections.
PravdABDCN thinks they speak for the American people when in reality they only speak for the most radical minority who most of the country thinks is crazy. He knows the media will never get his story out or tell of any of his accomplishments, so he goes directly to the American people bypassing Old Media. He lists all the things he has accomplished such as a secure border, the lowest crime rates in fifty years, and lowest poverty with the highest employment after firing 400,000 gummit workers and DC is spotless.
Only he can tell of his accomplishments like nobody else since he knows nobody else is going to brag him up. While he is listing his accomplishments around the world he mixes in some of the funniest most interesting stories imaginable along with whatever is on the top of his head to spice things up. He knows good news bad news just get the name spelled right and any attention is better than no attention.
While all the experts are telling the marketing genius what a bad idea these rallies are, the early voting numbers are breaking records for Repubs while even Oregon is generating a huge amount of excitement. Repubs and Indis are treating Drazan like a star as she outshines Kotax and people are smelling a large victory which is starting to make the Marble Cake in Salem nervous.
What does the Baby Killing Party have to run on, making girls race against boys? Every major story about the Dims is either massive corruption like Omar or women getting thrown out of women’s sporting events for supporting women in women’s sports. Like they say, women’s basketball is just like men’s basketball only slower and no dunking.
Their one big issue is killing babies and how Repubs want to stop killing them. Their big scare tactic is to tell women if you vote for Repubs they are against killing babies. Everyone knows killing babies is a basic human Right. Like they say, feminism was invented by a man.
What the experts and campaign managers do not get about the Trump rallies is the people who attend are not just voters, most of them are the GOTV foot soldiers who are knocking the doors. He is firing them up to work twice as hard for twice as long to pound those doors and have the times of their lives fighting for their President. This is the real fight for America against the real enemy.
He is rallying the army who are getting Red Meat like nobody has ever fed like Trump does. He calls it like it is and does not care how many feelings he hurts or feathers he ruffles. Now the vote is coming in and once again it looks like he is going to sweep the swing states even though the experts will predict just the opposite.
Experts have the ultimate scam; they all predict the same thing and when they are wrong, they can all say nobody saw that coming and have perfect cover. Nobody dare go out on a limb by himself since if he is wrong, he will be a loner if the branch is cut off. The groupthink is there to protect the group.
This is how when Trump came down the Gold Escalator and the polls said he was getting 1%, I was writing he would be the nominee. It is also how when those same polls had Hillary chance of winning at a 100% my son had me do a prediction map which I got 48 out of 50 correct. Ignore the experts and trust the crowds. The crowds are excited about Trump and are paid to go watch Barak tell bad jokes.
The people in Oregon are excited about winning like never before. They smell victory and this week is when that victory will happen. Knock the doors, have fun and enjoy accomplishing something that has never happened in Oregon before. Trump and Drazan are bringing back Oregon after 40 years of misery. The only thing standing between becoming the wealthiest state in the union and the poorest is Kotax and her fellow Baby Killers.
Pray for the Door Knockers
Note: The above opinion is not necessarily my own, but FReeper Bray’s. If you wish to discuss this, please ping Bray.
What I didn't see covered is what I am hearing over and over more and more as we get closer and closer to the election:
It is voiced mostly from the far left driveby networks.
It's something like this:
Dont expect election final results from many of the states by lates Tuesday.Just wont happen,the left needs time to realign the results to look more like what was seen during the phony polling.
I see this happening in a number of states which are all too easy to figure from california on.
https://www.thewrap.com/creative-content/tv-shows/late-night-not-live-midterm-election-results-first-since-2002/ https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2026/10/30/late-night-shows-to-skip-live-election-broadcasts-for-first-time-in-24-years/
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/6175621-midterm-elections-polls-close-results/
Some battleground states in the Midwest, namely Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, may take longer than Election Day to count votes. If races in those states are close, they may not be called until the next day. In Michigan, for instance, DDHQ did not call the 2024 presidential race until Thursday afternoon — two days after the election.
Yes.
We can thank the Supremes for that. Worst decision they could make that absolutely allows stolen elections. Thanks Amy!
What is missing is those who vote for those candidates who represent the best party that has a patriotic vision for the future. And there is only one: the Republicans.
Dems are now invested in destroying what was once a great country and continues to be under our President Donald J. Trump.
The DSA movement which will replace the progressive movement which replaced the liberal movement represents today's democrat. Today its all "Democrat Socialist" which is short for the move to:
COMMUNISM
So those who chose to vote on the dem side are actually siding with the move to communism where the state controls all including:
YOU!!
Good luck you will need it.
Probably zero mention of the British arrests of hundreds outside the US Embassy. The Palestine Action terror group acting up.
They may have an issue with the midnight dump with the DOJ looking over their shoulders.
Well, the economy is apparently thriving in my neck of the woods. I attended the Loachapoka Syrup Soppin event in Loachapoka Al (suburb of Auburn) and there were so many people there that you could barely walk. This little town has a population of around 200, but their annual event draws between 10,000 to 20,000. My cousin and hubby have helped with it for years and she said this is the most people they have ever had. We had to pay $10 to park in one of the few spaces left and then had to walk about a mile to get to the event. I had fun but came home exhausted...lol Anyway, an anedoetical report from Alabama.
Not to mention continuing the democrat habit of sending cash to Iran and hoping they do the right thing with it.
The more states not announcing final results until 2,3 or 4 days later, it becomes easier to draw the conclusion that something nefarious took place. And if its mostly blue states, or ones where blue is running the counting we know what’s coming. The fact the legacies are all predicting a blue wave based on their push polls, if the results go the other way then look out. We may see Sumner of Love replaced by Autumn of Anarchy, which is probably fine with the leftists.
Didn’t set the clock back and got up at 4:30. missed out on sleeping in.
Guys, we have invented the most incredible canvasing system in the country. It took us to only Repubs who vote less than 100% of the time using google maps and QR codes. Completely IR generated and absolutely simple. A five year old can run it.
Yeah let’s hope the DOJ is right there!
Without question we all know the dems have to cheat to win,little change there.
Just another tidbit for the not being covered list, the Haley Stevens/ Abdul El-Sayed kumbaya campaign weekend blew up on Friday and she appears to be destroying the reconciliation with Jewish voters that the con artist was hoping for. His attempt earlier in week to court black male voters by visiting a black barber shop went kaboom too. Maybe if your trying to look like a bro, by sitting in a chair at the wash sink, wasn’t the optic desired. Especially since it showed just how puny you are in stature..both figuratively and literally.
The DOJ has observers in downtown Portland where the Oregon cheat machine does its work. Looking forward to a REpub Governor next week. The numbers are looking very good.
We knocked around 500 doors in 4 hours yesterday with our new system. Only sometime voting Repubs of which most voted.
they are going out of business its so bad.
Of course with us our prime movers and shakers our adv. and promotion people were fired for doing too good a job so this is the result.
FOXNews is starting to carry the stench of being a liberal network with liberals pretending to be 'fair'... and about 15 real conservatives working hard to keep the doors open.
