Statistics say that Jorge Soler’s third-inning home run traveled 446 feet. Statistics lie. Soler’s home run is still flying, still going upward, and as long as Atlanta fans remember this team, that ball will never land.
For the first time in a quarter-century, the Atlanta Braves are world champions once again.
The Braves throttled the Houston Astros 7-0 in Game 6 of the World Series, the first shutout in a final World Series game since 2005 and the final notes of a bravura second-half performance from a team that won fewer games than any other team in the postseason. Soler hit the decisive homer, but this was a full-team performance. Dansby Swanson and Freddie Freeman added bar-the-door home runs, and Max Fried pitched the franchise's finest game of postseason ball since Tom Glavine won Game 6 of the 1995 World Series, the last time Atlanta captured the crown.
Momentum appeared on Houston's side; the Astros fought back from a first-inning Atlanta grand slam to capture Game 5 with authority, and returned the series to Minute Maid Park, where they were 7-2 this postseason. After a travel day, both teams had the opportunity to reset their pitching rotations. The Braves ran out Max Fried on full rest, while Houston opted to go with Game 3 starter Luis Garcia on short rest.
I watched the game instead of the bad news robotics
The Virginia governor’s race remains too close to call, but Democrat Terry McAuliffe – who is trailing Republican Glenn Youngkin – delivered a measured speech.
“I want to thank my campaign staff – it was the greatest team ever assembled,” he said in a speech that sounded adjacent to a concession speech, even though he wasn’t conceding.
“The fight continues,” he said. “We’ve got to make sure we protect women’s right to choose here in the Commonwealth of Virginia. We’ve got to make sure everyone gets quality, affordable health care here in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Everybody’s entitled to a world-class education here in the Commonwealth of Virginia and we are going to continue that fight tonight, and every day going forward.”
Trump said that he won. It's been a fucking year since he lost my a sign margin.
Republican Glenn Youngkin leads Democrat Terry McAuliffe in Virginia's closely watched gubernatorial contest Tuesday, though the race remains too close to call, according to NBC News.
With about 95 percent of the expected vote in, Youngkin is ahead 51.6 to 47.7 percent, or about 1.58 million votes to McAuliffe's 1.49 million.
Meanwhile, in New Jersey, the contest between Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy and Republican Jack Ciattarelli is closer than expected, with NBC News characterizing the race as too close to call with more than half the voted tallied.
McAuliffe spoke to supporters relatively early in the night, neither conceding nor declaring victory.
"We still got a lot of votes to count," he said in an upbeat tone. "We’re going to count all of the votes because every Virginian has a right to have their vote counted."
In blow to Democrats, Republican Glenn Youngkin defeated Democrat Terry McAuliffe in Virginia's high-profile election for governor Tuesday, NBC News projects, flipping control of a state that President Joe Biden won handily just a year ago and suggesting trouble for his party in next year's midterm elections.
The GOP victory, powered by robust turnout in conservative rural counties, improved support in the suburbs, and a message focused on the economy and alleged anti-white bias in school curriculum, will likely serve as a blueprint for Republicans looking to recapture the House and Senate next year.
Youngkin, a former private equity executive and political newcomer, kept just enough distance former President Donald Trump while keeping his base engaged. McAuliffe, meanwhile, was weighed down by his party's post-Trump political fatigue, along with Biden's sinking poll numbers and gridlocked agenda in Washington, but ran a campaign that included damaging gaffes and, critics say, was overly reliant on trying to tie Youngkin to Trump.
Buffalo mayor Byron Brown lost his dem party primary to AOC backed socialist India Walton. He waged a write in campaign that looks like it worked. He's set to have the biggest write in win since L8sa Murkowski in 2010.
Americans are rejecting the socialist liberal agenda in huge numbers.
Biden is Obama in disguise and we spoke out loud last night.
Among the tactics promoted by Obama in common with the Nazis are:
An obsession with race. The Nazis maliciously and falsely claimed that the supposed inferiority of various racial groups throughout Europe was responsible for all the theoretical ills of society. In the United States, the left blames non-existent “systemic racism” by the White population for American society’s theoretical ills.“Identity politics” or the promulgation of grievance-riddled polices by government favored groups against unfavored groups in order to destabilize society. Hitler fomented anger at Jews in Germany and in America the left isolates white, heterosexual Christians.“Wokeism” or “cancel culture.” The Nazis staged book burnings and incessant public and media intimidation to shut down any person, publication or institution that did not align with accepted ideology. In America the left uses incessant social and mainstream media intimidation to do the same.The Nazis manipulated a willingly allied German mainstream media to relentlessly regurgitate outright lies, fabrications and propaganda in order to indoctrinate and deceive the populace. The American Left currently manipulates a willingly allied American mainstream media to do the same. Per Nazi dogma: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. …[as] the truth is the greatest enemy of the state.”Both the Nazis and the Democrats established a financially beneficial rapport with the corporate class. In Germany it was the industrialists and in America Wall Street and Silicon Valley billionaires. Both authoritarian parties did so by promising the corporate class they would be left alone and given near monopoly status if they mindlessly and generously supported the Party. The Nazis mobilized the Brown Shirts to provoke street riots, property damage and gratuitous violence in order to intimidate the populace and marginalize the opposition. Their American counterparts have done the same with Antifa and Black Lives Matter.Both the Nazis and the American left fabricated or grossly exaggerated events, such as the Reichstag fire in 1933 or January 6, 2021, in order to turn the citizenry against their political opposition and justify an expansion of their political and police power.
Among the contemporary end-products of these Nazi-originated tactics is the political persecution and jailing without trial the January 6th defendants charged with simple misdemeanors and the ongoing premeditated abuse of government mandates to exploit the Covid-19 pandemic. Both tactics are aimed at browbeating the citizenry into meekly accepting a quasi-police state.
In the furtherance of fascist economic policy of centralized planning and control with a veneer of capitalism, the American left and the Democrat party have become closely aligned with and supported by favored unions and major corporations in pharmaceuticals, banking, finance, social media, health care and the media/entertainment complex. All the while undermining new business creation and destroying existing small businesses as well as major corporations not in lockstep with the regime.
The purpose of “Build Back Better Act” currently winding its way through Congress is to expand control of people’s lives by reshaping and permanently putting control of all aspects of the economy in the hands of politicians and bureaucrats.
Despite decades of unprecedented prosperity and access to information, far too many Democrat voters are among the most gullible people on earth. By mindlessly voting for the Democrats, these same fools are complicit in denigrating the nation’s founding, denying its accomplishments, and degrading the future for their progeny, all the while incomprehensibly ignoring and downplaying how their own world-leading standard of living came to be.
With so many not knowing who or what they are voting for, it is little wonder that the United States faces so many crises today
Unless the Democrats pass the two bills punchbowl news is correct
It’s true that off-year elections are unique, and that Covid-19 pandemic has left American society in a volatile, unpredictable state. Yet Biden’s sagging approval ratings, the unhappy electorate and Republicans’ successful exploitation of cultural fights over “critical race theory,” immigration and vaccine mandates are a harbinger of much more trouble ahead for the White House and the party. As we pointed out yesterday, simply screaming “Donald Trump!” won’t help Democrats keep the suburban voters they won last year.
So today and the days that follow will be particularly rough for House Democrats.
It doesn’t help that the party is in the midst of trying to pass the most progressive piece of legislation in decades. And if you think McAuliffe’s loss will have no impact on that, you’re very wrong.
Numerous Democrats privately have told us they’re uneasy with the contours of the massive Build Better Act despite weeks of intra-party negotiations. They believe the party leadership is rushing through the final stages of these talks. Last night’s loss -- or losses -- won’t end Democrats’ quest to pass the massive reconciliation package, but it will certainly impact it. Pelosi and her leadership team were hoping for floor passage this week. However, Tuesday losses will give new heft to those voices that have been suggesting the speaker slow the agenda down and bring it back to the center.
Remember: After Republican Scott Brown won the late Ted Kennedy’s Massachusetts Senate seat in January 2010, Pelosi and party leaders still pushed Obamacare through the chamber two months later. But Pelosi had a 257-178 vote margin at that point. She only has a three-vote margin now.
Let’s say this, though: You’ll hear moderates say today that the House needs to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill immediately. The House and Senate Democratic caucuses will turn into circular firing squads. That was already happening last night. Moderates will blame progressives, and vice versa.
But know this -- Sen. Joe Manchin’s wing of the Democratic Party will seem much more crowded today. --- The only good thing is that the former President was not a factor yesterday.
But if they pass both bills the election last night might may not matter.
Sen. Joe Manchin has laid out his terms for fellow Democrats to secure his vote on the $1.75 trillion economic package after saying this week that he wouldn’t commit to supporting it just to move forward with a vote on the complementary infrastructure bill. Manchin’s biggest issues? Climate change, taxes, Medicare and immigration. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer says he wants to bring the bill to the floor during the week of November 15 -- a timeline Manchin seems to support. Meanwhile, Senate Democrats have reached an agreement to lower drug costs by empowering Medicare to negotiate prices of certain costly medications. The deal would also cap what Americans pay for insulin at $35 a month. Such provisions were originally in the massive spending bill but were cut to reduce the bill’s price tag.
Last night's results affirm Manchin's and Sinema's position on the Biden Bullshit Better proposed legislation, and it should die a slow and hopefully painful death this week.
I was glad to be proven wrong on the dems effort to steal the seat for McAuliffe (although Fairfax County obviously considered trying), and I can only hope that Terry finds the inner strength and resolve to take his own life within the next few days. Publicly would be a nice touch. Satan would do well to rent a backhoe and start digging a tenth circle of hell just for him. Piece of shit.
If Sloppy Joe didn't shit his pants in front of the Pope this week, he certainly did last night.
The BBB “Reconciliation” bill wasn’t wanted by most people. Pass it at your own pearl.
If you just want to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill the Democrats wouldn’t look like a bunch of clowns.. And you would have had support of most voters.
The Democrats forgot that politics is the art of the possible.
Last night's results affirm Manchin's and Sinema's position on the Biden Bullshit Better proposed legislation, and it should die a slow and hopefully painful death this week.
If the Democrats have the intelligence God gave a gnat, they would run away from this politically toxic bill.
If you just want to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill the Democrats wouldn’t look like a bunch of clowns.. And you would have had support of most voters.
Yep.
Most everyone supported a pure and clean infrastructure bill. A bill limited to actual, you know, infrastructure. Once the radical Marxist left turned it into a fucking Christmas tree, slathering it with their Green Nude Eel bullshit it was destined to fail. And God forbid Manchin and Sinema actually represent the interests of THEIR constituents.
Putting aside Ch UNtruth's to be expected usual propaganda, here's good reporting you can trust from multiple sources, provided at Goddard's politicalwire.com: ____________
A Post-Trump Road Map for Republicans 8:02 am EDT
Aaron Blake: “Not to make everything about Trump, but the GOP’s ability to distance itself from him — and Democrats’ ability or inability to tie Republicans to him — matters in upcoming elections, especially with Trump out of office.
“Youngkin provided a road map for the GOP when Trump isn’t front-of-mind for most people. Whether Trump will stay so out-of-mind ahead of the 2024 election is a very relevant question.
“What also matters is whether Republicans can actually put forward candidates like Youngkin and perhaps Ciattarelli who can effectively craft their own brand. That’s especially true given how much some top GOP Senate candidates have tied themselves to Trump in the service of winning primaries — and how much Republicans might nominate candidates more extreme and with more baggage than Youngkin because they have Trump’s backing.”
Biden Just Isn’t Very Popular Right Now 7:54 am EDT
Jonathan Bernstein: “You’re going to hear plenty of explanations, but if you actually want to know what happened, it’s pretty straightforward. This is the 11th out of the last 12 times that the president’s party lost the Virginia gubernatorial election — the numbers in New Jersey are similar — and with President Joe Biden currently at 43% approval measured by public opinion polls, the result was pretty much what one would expect.
“If Biden is at 43% or lower a year from now, the chances are very good that Republicans will win big in the midterms. Of course, the next question is why Biden’s popularity has slumped, but the bulk of that is surely about the latest pandemic wave and a mediocre economic quarter. Sure, other things may have mattered on the margins, both for Biden’s popularity and the Virginia and New Jersey elections, and the margins can be extremely important when it comes to winning and losing. But the big picture isn’t very complicated. Republicans are doing well because there’s an incumbent Democrat president, and he’s not very popular right now.”
Geoffrey Skelley: “One inescapable fact about this election is that it took place in an environment that was favorable to Republicans. There’s no better indicator of that than President Biden’s poor approval rating, which stood at about 43% coming into Election Day in FiveThirtyEight’s presidential approval tracker.”
Democratic Infighting Intensifies 7:10 am EDT
New York Times: “Moderate Democrats argued that the defeat was a sign that Congress must immediately pass the party’s infrastructure bill, regardless of what happens with the shrunken version of Mr. Biden’s legislative agenda. The left blamed the failure of the party to push a broader agenda, including overturning the filibuster to pass liberal priorities like bills protecting the right to vote.
“And political strategists fear that the party is failing to adequately communicate what Democrats have already done to help the Covid-ravaged country and why they haven’t delivered on issues important to their base.”
Washington Post: “Democratic officials and strategists said that to counteract what unfolded in Virginia — strong anti-Democratic and anti-Biden energy driving the conservative base and suburban independents to vote Republican — the party needs to significantly improve its economic pitch, engage with young voters, voters of color and women under 50 far earlier and more aggressively than they have this year and renew efforts to recruit a more diverse slate of candidates.”
Youngkin Stayed Close to Trump During Campaign 7:07 am EDT
Washington Post: “Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin and Trump repeatedly spoke by phone over the course of the campaign, according to people familiar with the conversations who were not authorized to speak publicly, allowing the two men to go the length of the contest without saying negative things about each other or clashing on strategy.”
Biden May Have Mattered More Than Trump 6:56 am EDT
Playbook: “According to exit polls, Biden was about as unpopular as Trump in Virginia. But Biden embraced the race as a referendum on his presidency and campaigned in the state while Trump, to his great annoyance, was persuaded to stay away.”
Deja Vu? 6:52 am EDT
Punchbowl News: “This is all reminiscent of 2009, when Republicans swept both states on their way to massive victories in the 2010 midterms. They captured the House that cycle — ending Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s first run atop the chamber — and picked up seven Senate seats. The 2022 Senate map isn’t that good for Republicans, but they’re clearly the heavy favorites to win the House again next year. If the GOP does so, Pelosi would be the first speaker since Republican Joseph Martin to lose the majority twice (1948 and 1954). That’s not a list she wants to be on.”
Playbook: “History strongly suggests that the midterms will deliver the next big blow to the incumbent president. But the more immediate danger for Biden is his precarious legislative agenda.”
New Jersey Governor’s Race Too Close to Call 6:37 am EDT
“In a shocker, the contest, once seen as a shoo-in for Gov. Phil Murphy, remained too close to call Wednesday, with results so far showing the Democratic governor and Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli less than 1 percentage point apart,” NJ.com reports.
Youngkin Wins Virginia Governor’s Race 6:35 am EDT
“Virginia voters chose Republican Glenn Youngkin as their next governor, dramatic reversal for a state that had appeared solidly Democratic in recent years and a significant loss for President Biden and the party’s establishment,” the Washington Post reports.
“Youngkin is now a bright new star for the GOP — a basketball-playing business tycoon who navigated the trickiest path in politics, appealing to moderate voters while still bringing out the most enthusiastic followers of Trump.”
In public he distanced himself from Trump, but in private conversations, he consulted with Adolf Trump.
Washington Post: “Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin and Trump repeatedly spoke by phone over the course of the campaign, according to people familiar with the conversations who were not authorized to speak publicly, allowing the two men to go the length of the contest without saying negative things about each other or clashing on strategy.”
Dems and media still lying that CRT is not in VA schools. Yes it is and I hope dems continue to cling to it. Moderate and Indy voters hate it.
The phrase "Critical Race Theory" appears on the Virginia Department of Education website despite Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe’s repeated claims the curriculum is not taught in Virginia.
On the Virginia Department of Education website, several examples of the department promoting Critical Race Theory can be found, including a presentation from 2015, when Terry McAullife was governor, that encourages teachers to "embrace Critical Race Theory" in "order to re-engineer attitudes and belief systems."
Additionally, superintendent memo 050-19 can be found on the site from February 2019 promoting both Critical Race Theory and the idea of "white fragility."
Also in 2019, under Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam, Superintendent of Public Instruction James Lane sent a memo to Virginia public schools endorsing "Foundations of Critical Race Theory in Education," as an important "tool" that can "further spur developments in education."
City Journal’s Christopher Rufo detailed the revelations in a Twitter thread Saturday taking issues with McAuliffe’s claims that Critical Race Theory is a "racist dog whistle" that has "never been taught in Virginia."
Rufo also posted screenshots from the department’s website citing Critical Race Theory in Education" as a "best practice."
"It's not taught in Virginia and it's never been taught in Virginia," McAuliffe said earlier this month about the controversial curriculum which teaches that the United States is fundamentally racist. "And as I've said this a lot, it's a dog whistle. It's racial, it's division and it's used by Glenn Youngkin and others, it's the same thing with Trump and the border wall, to divide people. We should not be dividing people in school."
Black former police captain Eric Adams wins New York mayoral election
Agence France-Presse
November 03, 2021
Democrat Eric Adams won New York City's mayoral race on Tuesday on promises to boost public safety and give voice to working-class residents, drawing on his experience as a police captain and as a Black man who experienced police brutality as a youth.
Adams, the Brooklyn borough president since 2014, was projected the winner by the Associated Press. He will become the city's second Black mayor after defeating Republican Curtis Sliwa, founder of the Guardian Angels civilian patrol.
The 61-year-old Adams takes over in January from Democrat Bill de Blasio, who was term-limited after eight years in office.
Adams will face the task of overseeing the largest U.S. city's nascent recovery from the coronavirus pandemic, as well as confronting wealth inequality, lack of affordable housing and struggling public schools.
He had been expected to win handily in the overwhelmingly Democratic city.
His victory could give President Joe Biden's Democrats some signs of where voters stand as the party strives to maintain a fragile alliance between progressives and centrists in Washington.
Adams prevailed in the party's primary election with a coalition that resembled, in some ways, the voters who helped elevate Biden to the Democratic nomination in 2020, especially his support among more moderate Black voters.
Progressives worry Adams will cater too much to the real estate industry, a powerful lobby that gave generously to his campaign.
Right on 'streets' not 'tweets'
Adams has not been shy about suggesting that his triumph can serve as a blueprint for national Democrats. He has been dismissive of critics of his agenda on the left who he says do not speak for mainstream Democrats.
"I say that it's time for us to stop believing that we should have the right tweets. We should have the right safe streets," Adams told CNN after winning the party's nomination in July.
Portraying himself as a "blue-collar" New Yorker, he said working-class Democrats had been ignored by the party's more liberal wing.
Perhaps no issue has animated Democrats more in the past year than policing, after the 2020 police killing of George Floyd, a Black man, in Minneapolis sparked months of demonstrations across the country.
But a spike in crime has prompted mayoral candidates across the country to call for more investment in policing, not less, as public safety has risen to the top of many voters' list of concerns.
Adams has argued the city cannot make a full economic recovery without addressing violent crime. He bluntly rejected the "defund the police" movement as a product of left-wing activists.
Instead, he has sought to strike a balance between calling for more aggressive policing and vowing reforms, including more diversity in the department's senior ranks.
His personal story helped lend credence to his words. Adams has spoken of being beaten by police officers as a teenager.
Becasu Youngkin won by a decent margin, it will set off a panic among Democrats across the country. A five-point win, for example, would be a 15-point swing from Biden's margin in 2020. The last time we saw more than a four-point swing between presidential and Virginia gubernatorial years was 2009.
Even a narrow win or loss by Youngkin will be an emotional boost for Republicans and a demoralizing gut punch for Democrats. It would suggest that Biden's drag on the party is so significant that even states that he easily carried in 2020 would be vulnerable in 2022.
Of course, federal elections don't swing as much as gubernatorial elections. Even in 2018, a great year for Democrats, the GOP nominee's final margin was within one to four points of Trump's 2016 showing.
I don't think that President Biden will seek a second term.
If they find the right candidate like the new Mayor of New York, not Vice President Harris. She would be blamed for Biden's problems.

The Democrats have to win back the blue collar voters. Biden did quite well, but unless they pass the infrastructure bill, they don't stand a chance.
Tom Cotton https://twitter.com/TomCottonAR/status/1455706419404103685 If you shut down schools, force kids to wear masks, indoctrinate them to hate America, call their parents domestic terrorists, and lecture them about pronouns, don't be surprised when the voters reject your party.
With the elections over, the country’s political focus will return to Capitol Hill and the two big bills that make up the crux of Biden’s legislative agenda, one a bipartisan infrastructure bill, the other a Democratic bill that would help middle-class families and reduce pollution.
Together, the bills include a range of policies on which voters tend to support Democratic positions — like expanding Medicare, Medicaid, pre-K and federal programs to help create good-paying jobs.
But moderate Democrats have so far refused to pass the second bill. And progressive Democrats have refused to pass the infrastructure bill without more confidence that the bill focused on health care, education and the climate would pass. The infighting has contributed to voter frustration that Biden and the Democrats aren’t using their power to help American families.
Before the election, some Democrats warned that a defeat in Virginia could make it even harder for members of Congress to come together on the two bills. Yet it’s not clear what their alternative is. Failing to pass any major legislation would probably contribute to a perception that Democrats can’t be trusted to run Washington.
Congressional Democrats did seem to make progress yesterday, coming to an apparent agreement on a provision that would reduce prescription-drug prices. On the other hand, as The Washington Post’s Karen Tumulty noted, parties that suffer disappointments like the Democrats’ last night “tend to waste a lot of time on recriminations, rather than sober reassessment.”
Whether the party collapses into more infighting — or manages to unify itself — is the biggest political question coming out of last night. I remain optimistic because they know that if the don't take the chance, they will lose everything by 2024. They know that in their minds.
Democrat racism. White nationalist hoaxer Lincoln Project, blackface Gov, blackface LG candidate, neo-racist CRT all got blown away by a diverse, inclusive GOP.
Republicans didn't blame him or antifa. They piunted directly to the unpopular dem party agenda. Moderates and swibg voters hate it. Including moderate democrats.

Statistics say that Jorge Soler’s third-inning home run traveled 446 feet. Statistics lie. Soler’s home run is still flying, still going upward, and as long as Atlanta fans remember this team, that ball will never land.
For the first time in a quarter-century, the Atlanta Braves are world champions once again.
The Braves throttled the Houston Astros 7-0 in Game 6 of the World Series, the first shutout in a final World Series game since 2005 and the final notes of a bravura second-half performance from a team that won fewer games than any other team in the postseason. Soler hit the decisive homer, but this was a full-team performance.

The Virginia governor’s race remains too close to call, but Democrat Terry McAuliffe – who is trailing Republican Glenn Youngkin – delivered a measured speech.
“I want to thank my campaign staff – it was the greatest team ever assembled,” he said in a speech that sounded adjacent to a concession speech, even though he wasn’t conceding.
“The fight continues,” he said. “We’ve got to make sure we protect women’s right to choose here in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Trump said that he won. It's been a fucking year since he lost my a sign margin.
Republican Glenn Youngkin leads Democrat Terry McAuliffe in Virginia's closely watched gubernatorial contest Tuesday, though the race remains too close to call, according to NBC News.
With about 95 percent of the expected vote in, Youngkin is ahead 51.6 to 47.7 percent, or about 1.58 million votes to McAuliffe's 1.49 million.
Meanwhile, in New Jersey, the contest between Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy and Republican Jack Ciattarelli is closer than expected, with NBC News characterizing the race as too close to call with more than half the voted tallied.
McAuliffe spoke to supporters relatively early in the night, neither conceding nor declaring victory.
"We still got a lot of votes to count," he said in an upbeat tone. "We’re going to count all of the votes because every Virginian has a right to have their vote counted."
He is not calling it a steal!

By Alex Seitz-Wald and Henry J. Gomez
In blow to Democrats, Republican Glenn Youngkin defeated Democrat Terry McAuliffe in Virginia's high-profile election for governor Tuesday, NBC News projects, flipping control of a state that President Joe Biden won handily just a year ago and suggesting trouble for his party in next year's midterm elections.
The GOP victory, powered by robust turnout in conservative rural counties, improved support in the suburbs, and a message focused on the economy and alleged anti-white bias in school curriculum, will likely serve as a blueprint for Republicans looking to recapture the House and Senate next year.
Youngkin, a former private equity executive and political newcomer, kept just enough distance former President Donald Trump while keeping his base engaged. McAuliffe, meanwhile, was weighed down by his party's post-Trump political fatigue, along with Biden's sinking poll numbers and gridlocked agenda in Washington, but ran a campaign that included damaging gaffes and, critics say, was overly reliant on trying to tie Youngkin to Trump.
Fox News has called the race for Youngkin.
New Jersey is still in play.
Buffalo mayor Byron Brown lost his dem party primary to AOC backed socialist India Walton. He waged a write in campaign that looks like it worked. He's set to have the biggest write in win since L8sa Murkowski in 2010.
Americans are rejecting the socialist liberal agenda in huge numbers.
McAuliffe still won’t concede. That’s two Democrat sore losers to the one GOP.
Biden is Obama in disguise and we spoke out loud last night.
Among the tactics promoted by Obama in common with the Nazis are:
An obsession with race. The Nazis maliciously and falsely claimed that the supposed inferiority of various racial groups throughout Europe was responsible for all the theoretical ills of society. In the United States, the left blames non-existent “systemic racism” by the White population for American society’s theoretical ills.“Identity politics” or the promulgation of grievance-riddled polices by government favored groups against unfavored groups in order to destabilize society. Hitler fomented anger at Jews in Germany and in America the left isolates white, heterosexual Christians.“Wokeism” or “cancel culture.” The Nazis staged book burnings and incessant public and media intimidation to shut down any person, publication or institution that did not align with accepted ideology. In America the left uses incessant social and mainstream media intimidation to do the same.The Nazis manipulated a willingly allied German mainstream media to relentlessly regurgitate outright lies, fabrications and propaganda in order to indoctrinate and deceive the populace. The American Left currently manipulates a willingly allied American mainstream media to do the same. Per Nazi dogma: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. …[as] the truth is the greatest enemy of the state.”Both the Nazis and the Democrats established a financially beneficial rapport with the corporate class. In Germany it was the industrialists and in America Wall Street and Silicon Valley billionaires. Both authoritarian parties did so by promising the corporate class they would be left alone and given near monopoly status if they mindlessly and generously supported the Party. The Nazis mobilized the Brown Shirts to provoke street riots, property damage and gratuitous violence in order to intimidate the populace and marginalize the opposition. Their American counterparts have done the same with Antifa and Black Lives Matter.Both the Nazis and the American left fabricated or grossly exaggerated events, such as the Reichstag fire in 1933 or January 6, 2021, in order to turn the citizenry against their political opposition and justify an expansion of their political and police power.
Among the contemporary end-products of these Nazi-originated tactics is the political persecution and jailing without trial the January 6th defendants charged with simple misdemeanors and the ongoing premeditated abuse of government mandates to exploit the Covid-19 pandemic. Both tactics are aimed at browbeating the citizenry into meekly accepting a quasi-police state.
In the furtherance of fascist economic policy of centralized planning and control with a veneer of capitalism, the American left and the Democrat party have become closely aligned with and supported by favored unions and major corporations in pharmaceuticals, banking, finance, social media, health care and the media/entertainment complex. All the while undermining new business creation and destroying existing small businesses as well as major corporations not in lockstep with the regime.
The purpose of “Build Back Better Act” currently winding its way through Congress is to expand control of people’s lives by reshaping and permanently putting control of all aspects of the economy in the hands of politicians and bureaucrats.
Despite decades of unprecedented prosperity and access to information, far too many Democrat voters are among the most gullible people on earth. By mindlessly voting for the Democrats, these same fools are complicit in denigrating the nation’s founding, denying its accomplishments, and degrading the future for their progeny, all the while incomprehensibly ignoring and downplaying how their own world-leading standard of living came to be.
With so many not knowing who or what they are voting for, it is little wonder that the United States faces so many crises today
Unless the Democrats pass the two bills punchbowl news is correct
It’s true that off-year elections are unique, and that Covid-19 pandemic has left American society in a volatile, unpredictable state. Yet Biden’s sagging approval ratings, the unhappy electorate and Republicans’ successful exploitation of cultural fights over “critical race theory,” immigration and vaccine mandates are a harbinger of much more trouble ahead for the White House and the party. As we pointed out yesterday, simply screaming “Donald Trump!” won’t help Democrats keep the suburban voters they won last year.
So today and the days that follow will be particularly rough for House Democrats.
It doesn’t help that the party is in the midst of trying to pass the most progressive piece of legislation in decades. And if you think McAuliffe’s loss will have no impact on that, you’re very wrong.
Numerous Democrats privately have told us they’re uneasy with the contours of the massive Build Better Act despite weeks of intra-party negotiations. They believe the party leadership is rushing through the final stages of these talks. Last night’s loss -- or losses -- won’t end Democrats’ quest to pass the massive reconciliation package, but it will certainly impact it. Pelosi and her leadership team were hoping for floor passage this week. However, Tuesday losses will give new heft to those voices that have been suggesting the speaker slow the agenda down and bring it back to the center.
Remember: After Republican Scott Brown won the late Ted Kennedy’s Massachusetts Senate seat in January 2010, Pelosi and party leaders still pushed Obamacare through the chamber two months later. But Pelosi had a 257-178 vote margin at that point. She only has a three-vote margin now.
Let’s say this, though: You’ll hear moderates say today that the House needs to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill immediately. The House and Senate Democratic caucuses will turn into circular firing squads. That was already happening last night. Moderates will blame progressives, and vice versa.
But know this -- Sen. Joe Manchin’s wing of the Democratic Party will seem much more crowded today.
---
The only good thing is that the former President was not a factor yesterday.
But if they pass both bills the election last night might may not matter.
Sen. Joe Manchin has laid out his terms for fellow Democrats to secure his vote on the $1.75 trillion economic package after saying this week that he wouldn’t commit to supporting it just to move forward with a vote on the complementary infrastructure bill. Manchin’s biggest issues? Climate change, taxes, Medicare and immigration. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer says he wants to bring the bill to the floor during the week of November 15 -- a timeline Manchin seems to support. Meanwhile, Senate Democrats have reached an agreement to lower drug costs by empowering Medicare to negotiate prices of certain costly medications. The deal would also cap what Americans pay for insulin at $35 a month. Such provisions were originally in the massive spending bill but were cut to reduce the bill’s price tag.
Last night's results affirm Manchin's and Sinema's position on the Biden Bullshit Better proposed legislation, and it should die a slow and hopefully painful death this week.
I was glad to be proven wrong on the dems effort to steal the seat for McAuliffe (although Fairfax County obviously considered trying), and I can only hope that Terry finds the inner strength and resolve to take his own life within the next few days. Publicly would be a nice touch. Satan would do well to rent a backhoe and start digging a tenth circle of hell just for him. Piece of shit.
If Sloppy Joe didn't shit his pants in front of the Pope this week, he certainly did last night.
War, motherfucker.
WAR.

The BBB “Reconciliation” bill wasn’t wanted by most people. Pass it at your own pearl.
If you just want to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill the Democrats wouldn’t look like a bunch of clowns..
And you would have had support of most voters.
The Democrats forgot that politics is the art of the possible.
The only good thing is that the former President was not a factor yesterday.
Geezus alky, you were even wrong about this. Your track record of 100% WRONG political predictions remains intact...
...by a landslide.
LOL.
Last night's results affirm Manchin's and Sinema's position on the Biden Bullshit Better proposed legislation, and it should die a slow and hopefully painful death this week.
If the Democrats have the intelligence God gave a gnat, they would run away from this politically toxic bill.
As I told Roger, pass it at your own peril.
NYS voters defeated 3 proposals. They would have
Counted illegal aliens in census redistricting
Expanded same day voting registration
Expanded steal by mail voting
Even NY is saying enough is enough
If you just want to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill the Democrats wouldn’t look like a bunch of clowns..
And you would have had support of most voters.
Yep.
Most everyone supported a pure and clean infrastructure bill. A bill limited to actual, you know, infrastructure. Once the radical Marxist left turned it into a fucking Christmas tree, slathering it with their Green Nude Eel bullshit it was destined to fail. And God forbid Manchin and Sinema actually represent the interests of THEIR constituents.

A Post-Trump Road Map for Republicans
8:02 am EDT
Aaron Blake:
“Not to make everything about Trump, but the GOP’s ability to distance itself from him — and Democrats’ ability or inability to tie Republicans to him — matters in upcoming elections, especially with Trump out of office.
“Youngkin provided a road map for the GOP when Trump isn’t front-of-mind for most people. Whether Trump will stay so out-of-mind ahead of the 2024 election is a very relevant question.
“What also matters is whether Republicans can actually put forward candidates like Youngkin and perhaps Ciattarelli who can effectively craft their own brand. That’s especially true given how much some top GOP Senate candidates have tied themselves to Trump in the service of winning primaries — and how much Republicans might nominate candidates more extreme and with more baggage than Youngkin because they have Trump’s backing.”
Biden Just Isn’t Very Popular Right Now
7:54 am EDT
Jonathan Bernstein:
“You’re going to hear plenty of explanations, but if you actually want to know what happened, it’s pretty straightforward. This is the 11th out of the last 12 times that the president’s party lost the Virginia gubernatorial election — the numbers in New Jersey are similar — and with President Joe Biden currently at 43% approval measured by public opinion polls, the result was pretty much what one would expect.
“If Biden is at 43% or lower a year from now, the chances are very good that Republicans will win big in the midterms. Of course, the next question is why Biden’s popularity has slumped, but the bulk of that is surely about the latest pandemic wave and a mediocre economic quarter. Sure, other things may have mattered on the margins, both for Biden’s popularity and the Virginia and New Jersey elections, and the margins can be extremely important when it comes to winning and losing. But the big picture isn’t very complicated. Republicans are doing well because there’s an incumbent Democrat president, and he’s not very popular right now.”
Geoffrey Skelley:
“One inescapable fact about this election is that it took place in an environment that was favorable to Republicans. There’s no better indicator of that than President Biden’s poor approval rating, which stood at about 43% coming into Election Day in FiveThirtyEight’s presidential approval tracker.”
Democratic Infighting Intensifies
7:10 am EDT
New York Times:
“Moderate Democrats argued that the defeat was a sign that Congress must immediately pass the party’s infrastructure bill, regardless of what happens with the shrunken version of Mr. Biden’s legislative agenda. The left blamed the failure of the party to push a broader agenda, including overturning the filibuster to pass liberal priorities like bills protecting the right to vote.
“And political strategists fear that the party is failing to adequately communicate what Democrats have already done to help the Covid-ravaged country and why they haven’t delivered on issues important to their base.”
Washington Post:
“Democratic officials and strategists said that to counteract what unfolded in Virginia — strong anti-Democratic and anti-Biden energy driving the conservative base and suburban independents to vote Republican — the party needs to significantly improve its economic pitch, engage with young voters, voters of color and women under 50 far earlier and more aggressively than they have this year and renew efforts to recruit a more diverse slate of candidates.”
Youngkin Stayed Close to Trump During Campaign
7:07 am EDT
Washington Post:
“Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin and Trump repeatedly spoke by phone over the course of the campaign, according to people familiar with the conversations who were not authorized to speak publicly, allowing the two men to go the length of the contest without saying negative things about each other or clashing on strategy.”
Biden May Have Mattered More Than Trump
6:56 am EDT
Playbook:
“According to exit polls, Biden was about as unpopular as Trump in Virginia. But Biden embraced the race as a referendum on his presidency and campaigned in the state while Trump, to his great annoyance, was persuaded to stay away.”
Deja Vu?
6:52 am EDT
Punchbowl News:
“This is all reminiscent of 2009, when Republicans swept both states on their way to massive victories in the 2010 midterms. They captured the House that cycle — ending Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s first run atop the chamber — and picked up seven Senate seats. The 2022 Senate map isn’t that good for Republicans, but they’re clearly the heavy favorites to win the House again next year. If the GOP does so, Pelosi would be the first speaker since Republican Joseph Martin to lose the majority twice (1948 and 1954). That’s not a list she wants to be on.”
Playbook:
“History strongly suggests that the midterms will deliver the next big blow to the incumbent president. But the more immediate danger for Biden is his precarious legislative agenda.”
New Jersey Governor’s Race Too Close to Call
6:37 am EDT
“In a shocker, the contest, once seen as a shoo-in for Gov. Phil Murphy, remained too close to call Wednesday, with results so far showing the Democratic governor and Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli less than 1 percentage point apart,” NJ.com reports.
Youngkin Wins Virginia Governor’s Race
6:35 am EDT
“Virginia voters chose Republican Glenn Youngkin as their next governor, dramatic reversal for a state that had appeared solidly Democratic in recent years and a significant loss for President Biden and the party’s establishment,” the Washington Post reports.
“Youngkin is now a bright new star for the GOP — a basketball-playing business tycoon who navigated the trickiest path in politics, appealing to moderate voters while still bringing out the most enthusiastic followers of Trump.”

In public he distanced himself from Trump, but in private conversations, he consulted with Adolf Trump.

The phrase "Critical Race Theory" appears on the Virginia Department of Education website despite Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe’s repeated claims the curriculum is not taught in Virginia.
On the Virginia Department of Education website, several examples of the department promoting Critical Race Theory can be found, including a presentation from 2015, when Terry McAullife was governor, that encourages teachers to "embrace Critical Race Theory" in "order to re-engineer attitudes and belief systems."
Additionally, superintendent memo 050-19 can be found on the site from February 2019 promoting both Critical Race Theory and the idea of "white fragility."
Also in 2019, under Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam, Superintendent of Public Instruction James Lane sent a memo to Virginia public schools endorsing "Foundations of Critical Race Theory in Education," as an important "tool" that can "further spur developments in education."
City Journal’s Christopher Rufo detailed the revelations in a Twitter thread Saturday taking issues with McAuliffe’s claims that Critical Race Theory is a "racist dog whistle" that has "never been taught in Virginia."
Rufo also posted screenshots from the department’s website citing Critical Race Theory in Education" as a "best practice."
"It's not taught in Virginia and it's never been taught in Virginia," McAuliffe said earlier this month about the controversial curriculum which teaches that the United States is fundamentally racist. "And as I've said this a lot, it's a dog whistle. It's racial, it's division and it's used by Glenn Youngkin and others, it's the same thing with Trump and the border wall, to divide people. We should not be dividing people in school."

The next Barack Obama?
Black former police captain Eric Adams wins New York mayoral election
Agence France-Presse
November 03, 2021
Democrat Eric Adams won New York City's mayoral race on Tuesday on promises to boost public safety and give voice to working-class residents, drawing on his experience as a police captain and as a Black man who experienced police brutality as a youth.
Adams, the Brooklyn borough president since 2014, was projected the winner by the Associated Press. He will become the city's second Black mayor after defeating Republican Curtis Sliwa, founder of the Guardian Angels civilian patrol.
The 61-year-old Adams takes over in January from Democrat Bill de Blasio, who was term-limited after eight years in office.
Adams will face the task of overseeing the largest U.S. city's nascent recovery from the coronavirus pandemic, as well as confronting wealth inequality, lack of affordable housing and struggling public schools.
He had been expected to win handily in the overwhelmingly Democratic city.
His victory could give President Joe Biden's Democrats some signs of where voters stand as the party strives to maintain a fragile alliance between progressives and centrists in Washington.
Adams prevailed in the party's primary election with a coalition that resembled, in some ways, the voters who helped elevate Biden to the Democratic nomination in 2020, especially his support among more moderate Black voters.
Progressives worry Adams will cater too much to the real estate industry, a powerful lobby that gave generously to his campaign.
Right on 'streets' not 'tweets'
Adams has not been shy about suggesting that his triumph can serve as a blueprint for national Democrats. He has been dismissive of critics of his agenda on the left who he says do not speak for mainstream Democrats.
"I say that it's time for us to stop believing that we should have the right tweets. We should have the right safe streets," Adams told CNN after winning the party's nomination in July.
Portraying himself as a "blue-collar" New Yorker, he said working-class Democrats had been ignored by the party's more liberal wing.
Perhaps no issue has animated Democrats more in the past year than policing, after the 2020 police killing of George Floyd, a Black man, in Minneapolis sparked months of demonstrations across the country.
But a spike in crime has prompted mayoral candidates across the country to call for more investment in policing, not less, as public safety has risen to the top of many voters' list of concerns.
Adams has argued the city cannot make a full economic recovery without addressing violent crime. He bluntly rejected the "defund the police" movement as a product of left-wing activists.
Instead, he has sought to strike a balance between calling for more aggressive policing and vowing reforms, including more diversity in the department's senior ranks.
His personal story helped lend credence to his words. Adams has spoken of being beaten by police officers as a teenager.

Roger is a fake.
Becasu Youngkin won by a decent margin, it will set off a panic among Democrats across the country. A five-point win, for example, would be a 15-point swing from Biden's margin in 2020. The last time we saw more than a four-point swing between presidential and Virginia gubernatorial years was 2009.
Even a narrow win or loss by Youngkin will be an emotional boost for Republicans and a demoralizing gut punch for Democrats. It would suggest that Biden's drag on the party is so significant that even states that he easily carried in 2020 would be vulnerable in 2022.
Of course, federal elections don't swing as much as gubernatorial elections. Even in 2018, a great year for Democrats, the GOP nominee's final margin was within one to four points of Trump's 2016 showing.
Will The Socialist Democrats, like Roger and his GOD Joe Brandon, reverse course, reverse policies and work for middle and low income Americans
OR
Will they continue to embrace BLM, Antifa, CRT and the damaging Polices of Joe Brandon?
I don't think that President Biden will seek a second term.
If they find the right candidate like the new Mayor of New York, not Vice President Harris. She would be blamed for Biden's problems.

To be clear, Virginia isn't saying Let's Go Brandon... they're saying Fuck Joe Biden.
loudly
With the elections over, the country’s political focus will return to Capitol Hill and the two big bills that make up the crux of Biden’s legislative agenda, one a bipartisan infrastructure bill, the other a Democratic bill that would help middle-class families and reduce pollution.
Together, the bills include a range of policies on which voters tend to support Democratic positions — like expanding Medicare, Medicaid, pre-K and federal programs to help create good-paying jobs.
But moderate Democrats have so far refused to pass the second bill. And progressive Democrats have refused to pass the infrastructure bill without more confidence that the bill focused on health care, education and the climate would pass. The infighting has contributed to voter frustration that Biden and the Democrats aren’t using their power to help American families.
Before the election, some Democrats warned that a defeat in Virginia could make it even harder for members of Congress to come together on the two bills. Yet it’s not clear what their alternative is. Failing to pass any major legislation would probably contribute to a perception that Democrats can’t be trusted to run Washington.
Congressional Democrats did seem to make progress yesterday, coming to an apparent agreement on a provision that would reduce prescription-drug prices. On the other hand, as The Washington Post’s Karen Tumulty noted, parties that suffer disappointments like the Democrats’ last night “tend to waste a lot of time on recriminations, rather than sober reassessment.”
Whether the party collapses into more infighting — or manages to unify itself — is the biggest political question coming out of last night. I remain optimistic because they know that if the don't take the chance, they will lose everything by 2024. They know that in their minds.

He also admitted he is dumping Brandon and the HOE for 2024.
Wow
Huh. Never saw THIS coming - Milley Vanilli's 'woke bullshit' is paying dividends.:
Royal Marines have forced US troops to surrender just days into a training exercise after eliminating almost the entire unit.
The British commandos “dominated” US forces during a training exercise in California, using a new battle structure

I call it 'cause & effect.'
Tell a large swath of the American electorate that they're white supremacists, terrorists, that you fucking hate them, and then you put them out of work, and this is what you get.
This is human nature to us "normals," but rocket science to the left.
Voters have been telling democrats for months that they don't like the energy policies, the border chaos, the wokism, the transgenderism shoved in their faces. They don't like the education policies, the covid policies, the spending. They've been saying it. But dems haven't cared and ignored it all. And they also hav3 no faith is Biden, who is showing himself as a historically weak president.
BRANDON'S Policies have failed.
Spending $4-5 Trillion more is not the fix.
Slamming in the Brakes and stop doing what has not worked for 10 months is the answer.
RRB is spot on.

Guess will have to buy the Brits a pint.
Don’t know whether the Brits were testing their new battle structure and the US troops were the designated Guinean pigs or whether this an abject failure of the command and control.
Fortunately it was a war game with our closes ally.
