IT’S VERY INTERESTING THAT COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD ARE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO HAVE THREE DAYS OF FOOD AND ESSENTIALS ON HAND:  Yes, I’ve Noticed…

Look on your way back from voting, swing by the grocery store, grab your essentials. I don’t think things will go spicy that fast. (Note I’m not say “I don’t think things will go spicy.) But you never know, and better safe than sorry. There’s f*ckery abroad (literally) and it’s being financed by someone. And the someone, self-obviously does not wish us well.

AN UNWILLINGNESS TO HAVE GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS FOR EVERY PROBLEM IS NOT LAZINESS:  Try These, Numbnuts.

It’s respect for freedom and the individual. And yes, if you don’t see that, you deserve to be called Numbnuts. Well, you deserve to be called worse, but Kim is a gentleman, malgre hanging out with the likes of me.

THAT’S BEEN DEMOCRATS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY:  Collins Blasts Schumer, Democrats Over ‘Completely False’ Campaign Ads.

Including the endless prattle about affordability from the same people who called us “treatlers” because we wanted to be able to afford eggs, just three years ago. Don’t be fooled. Vote against the lying bastards. And vote even RINOS like Collins in. Who has the majority matters. The RINOS we’ll deal with by the by, on our own. Recruit, primary, educate. But tomorrow, just VOTE.

DO NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT. IT AIN’T GOOD. AND IT’S AWFUL DARK:  The quisling DNC is real; The violent Islamo-left is real: The most brutal psychopathic illegals — rapists, human traffickers, fentanyl bosslings — will be hired as guards at the re-education camps the lefties have planned for you and me.

ENEMIES OF AMERICA AND ENEMIES OF CIVILIZATION:  Here’s the primer: USAID, the foreign aid agency, had a democracy office. Inside the agency, it was called DRG. Officially, DRG administered “democracy assistance.” They’d go inside countries they thought were sliding into authoritarianism and help the opposition there. That assistance included election monitoring, judicary support, independent media, and civil society building. You may have heard the term “color revolution.” The model comes from Serbia in 2000, where trained student activists brought down Milosevic with the help of Western governments, after sustained protests. With the help of USAID’s democracy office, this model was implemented in many other countries to topple governments: Georgia’s “Rose Revolution” in 2003, Ukraine’s “Orange Revolution” in 2004, and many more. Then last year, DOGE shut down USAID. But the USAID democracy office didn’t stop. They formed a group called the Democracy Renewal Group, the same initials as their office (USAID Democracy, Human Rights, Governance). Their goal: apply their own playbook to the United States itself.

WE’RE VERY CLOSE TO HAVING TIME FOR THE STARS, VOTE TO BUY US A LITTLE MORE TIME:  Time For The Stars.

VOTE AGAINST THE BARBARIANS WHO WANT TO TAKE OUR NATION DOWN:  When they tell you who they really are, listen.

INVESTIGATE ALL HIS OTHER STAFFERS:  Mariam Odeh, a former staffer on Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign, is currently facing federal charges alongside 11 other anti-Israel activists accused of vandalizing the homes of members of Michigan’s Jewish and pro-Israel community and plotting to poison and murder them and their families. Jars containing noxious chemicals were thrown into family homes. Windows were smashed. Homes were marked with the Hamas red inverted triangle, designating them as targets for death.

DESPITE MANY DESPICABLY CONFUSED BISHOPS, CATHOLICS ARE NOT ALL STUPID ON IMMIGRATION:  Meet the Rising Young Catholic Group Pressing for Tougher Immigration Enforcement. Young Catholics for Ordered Migration wants the bishops to hear another view on immigration, one rooted in the Church’s tradition. As its response to the USCCB put it, “We ask only that the second half of Catechism 2241 be preached with the same clarity as the first.”

MOSTLY, A LOT OF RIOTS ARE BEING BOUGHT. NO THAT’S NOT WHAT THE ARTICLE SAYS. IT IS WHAT IT IS:  Catching up with what’s happening in a declining Europe.

Yes, their supposed leaders abet this. You want to keep it out of here, get out and vote. Vote against the socialists and their islamist allies. And gain us a little time to get more people in politics that you actually want to vote FOR.

Of course, Truman couldn’t have done it without dropping his share of F-bombs, a reminder of another element of American politics that never changes:

KURT SCHLICHTER: Your Vote for the Republicans Is a Vote Against Tyranny.

You need to go vote for every Republican on your ballot. The election Tuesday isn’t going to be the breaking point for this little experiment we call the “United States of America,” but if the Democrats substantially improve their position, it could haul us a long way down the dark road they seem intent on following to its dead end. And it is a dead end, not only for the country but perhaps for a lot of people, as early as 2029. That may sound alarmist to the Color Revolution Deniers™, but facts are facts. I got grief recently from a glorified blog nobody reads because I was amplifying @DataRepublican’s horrifying research revelations about a potential color revolution here in the United States. Apparently, warning people not to do things that could lead to civil conflict is somehow the same as advocating civil conflict. It’s not.

DEVELOPING: US struck Iran’s Qeshm Island, Wall Street Journal reports.

I DO NOT TRUST THE INTERNET OF THINGS: Shop freezers in seven European countries hit by cyber-attack.

Dozens of supermarkets across seven European countries have been hit by a cyber-attack affecting their refrigerators and freezers.

Around 40 Delhaize supermarkets in Belgium and Luxembourg were affected, while a smaller number of shops were hit in Sweden, Ireland, the Netherlands, Estonia and Finland.

Sabcobel, a Belgian company that manufactures some of the affected refrigerators, said the units’ evaporators were switched to defrost mode, causing them to warm up, in what is believed to be the same method used in last month’s incident that hit hundreds of French supermarkets.

Millions of euros worth of food had to be thrown away in October, local media reported at the time.

Stephan Moelans, the CEO of Sabcobel, which operates Delhaize’s systems, on Monday told the Belga news agency that the incident was a cyber-attack and that the company had been “working all night and morning to disconnect the affected units from the network”.

He said since the French attack in early October, the company had been working to “protect our customers fridges against this vulnerability” but that the units needed physical modifications, not just software updates.

Most supermarkets across Europe are linked to the internet, and maintenance and troubleshooting can be done remotely.

Bad things can be done remotely as well:

Today attackers remotely accessed freezers across 7 European countries and turned up the temperature, destroying loads of food.

There's been losses of millions of euros.

Maybe not a good idea to have freezers connected to the internet.

DISPATCHES FROM THE EDUCATION APOCALYPSE: Former MIT scientist wins $6M defamation verdict against colleague who accused him of sexual misconduct.

A former Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) scientist won a legal victory this week after losing his position following sexual misconduct allegations made by a female colleague.

Dr. David Sabatini, a former MIT biology professor and prominent biomedical researcher, was awarded $6 million in damages Friday after a jury found that his former colleague, Dr. Kristin Knouse, had defamed him.

At the time of the allegations, Sabatini had led a research lab at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for approximately 24 years.

His work focused on cell biology and its connections to neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, aging and cancer.

In 2021, Sabatini lost his position at Whitehead following an internal investigation into allegations made by Dr. Kristin Knouse, a younger colleague who worked at the institute.

The pair met in 2012 and began a sexual relationship in 2018, which ended the following year, according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital. Knouse later alleged the relationship was coerced.

Read the whole thing. As Richard Fernandez says, “Lysenkoism is alive and well and its new name is Wokism. The immense prestige of the Ivy League, Oxbridge and les grand ecoles attract not only the tall trees, but growing in its shadow, also the malignant creepers of envy, deceit and greed.”

That a Nobel mooted institute director in a hard science field could be framed by a seeming cabal of Woke women causing not only the destruction of a leading cancer expert's life but also of the institute itself for the pettiest of motives at MIT is more horrifying than the…
