Flotsam and Jetsam - Off Year Elections, Tlaib Censured

Ace, Get Out the Vote! Too late. Yesterday was the off year elections in a number of state not named Maryland, including neighboring Virginia. A preview from Stacy McCain, Election Results HQ: The Check Engine Light Is Flashing for ‘Bidenomics’. "Tonight there will be election results in Kentucky, Virginia, New Jersey, Mississippi, Ohio and Pennsylvania. The most closely watched contest will be the governor’s race in Kentucky, where the Trump-backed Republican challenger, Attorney General Daniel Cameron, had a late poll surge and is now tied with Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear. . . " From the Wombat's In The Mailbox: 11.07.23 (Morning Edition)  LI, Virginia: Today’s Election A Big F’ing Deal As Democrats Fear-Monger Abortion, Gun Rights, and MAGA, Oh My!Susie Moore at Red State, LIVE ELECTION RESULTS: Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia. Republican generally unperformed hopes and expectations. Don't we usually? Stacy McCain,  Despite Big Night for Virginia Democrats, “HotWifeExperience’ Loses Election. "Unfortunately for “HotWifeExperience” fans, however, Gibson lost the District 57 seat to Republican David Owen by a margin of about 900 votes out of some 34,000 votes cast. So now Gibson can go back to showing her nasty gash to strangers for money, and I will remain in awe of Daily Wire reporter Luke Rosiak, who got paid to watch the “HotWifeExperience” videos. Nice work, if you can get it." Jazz Shaw at Hat Hair, What Went Wrong in Virginia? One Word, abortion. RedState's 'Bonchie' is pissed off that Republicans Aren't Tired of Losing Yet. And, just for fun, from Twitchy, Virginia Man Ranting at Republican Poll Greeter Gets The Twitter Treatment, Hilarity Ensues.

Beege Welborn at Hat Hair practically burbles Call a Waahmbulance and Get Some Bounty Towels -Tlaib is Blubbering Defending Herself From Censure UPDATE: It's DONE. Althouse, "Twenty-two Democrats voted with 212 Republicans to censure Tlaib, and four Republicans voted with 184 Democrats against the resolution..." ""Tlaib was not required to stand in the well of the House and be rebuked by the speaker, as is traditionally the case.... [T]he resolution mentions Tlaib’s Nov. 3 video post on X, which included the first portion of the phrase 'from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,' a call for the eradication of Israel.... Tlaib responded by saying the phrase is 'an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction, or hate.'" From "House censures Rep. Rashida Tlaib over defense of Hamas, calls to destroy Israel" (NY Post)." As reprehensible as her stand is, I disagree with this. She clearly has her beliefs, as do her constituents. Let them take care of it if they disagree. John Green at Am Think wonders (hopes?) Was October 7 an Earthquake for the Democrats?

Don Surber names 3 reasons why Trump is leading. "The first two don't count because it is the mugshot, stupid." Never-anybody-but-Trump sundance at CTH, sees that Ahead of Miami Debate, Donald Trump Leads Florida GOPe Field with 60% of Primary Vote. Jazz Shaw fears a Political Doom Spiral: What if Both Biden and Trump Died Next Summer?  To misquote Chuck De Gaul  "the graveyards are full of irreplaceable men." "As it turns out, both the RNC and the DNC have reserved significant power for themselves if such an event were to take place. Read Liz’s entire article for the details from the conference rules, but if the nominees were to suddenly be MIA, each conference could hold an emergency meeting and pick a replacement. That’s right… all of the primaries, the debates, and the speeches would mean nothing. A couple of hundred people would huddle up and decide who you get to choose from to be the next president. Does that sound very appealing to you? It doesn’t to me either." At Da Fed, the unsinkable Mollie Hemingway claims The ‘Inflection Point’ For DeSantis’ Campaign Woes Isn’t What He Thinks. "If DeSantis is trying to get his campaign back on track, he should understand how his own comments have made him less attractive to voters." Frankly, I don't think they hear him that much through the noise, and he's a comfortable second choice. 

Shawn Fleetwood at Da Fed points out Court: Democrats Have No Evidence To Challenge New Hampshire’s Voter ID Law. From TNP, Dems In 3 States Face Serious Voter Fraud Charges. "Democrats in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Jersey are facing multiple allegations of election fraud. Several criminal cases have been opened."

Ace rolls over and types Now That Polls Show Biden Losing to Trump, Politico Writes a Hit Piece About Joe Biden's Corruption, "How quickly the Palace Guard switched from protecting the king to arranging for a usurpation!"

Insty, WELL, YES: Some Democrats worry Biden’s team is ignoring political warning signs. "This is from the American Left’s unofficial mouthpiece, the Washington Post: “I am concerned,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) said in an interview. “I was concerned before these numbers. I am concerned by the inexplicable credibility that Donald Trump seems to have despite all of the indictments, the lies, the incredible wrongdoing.”" Eddie Scarry at Da Fed claims Only Kamala Harris Can Save Democrats In 2024, by retiring. Capt. Ed at Hat Hair, "And that will *never* happen. But even if Harris tried it, it wouldn’t work. The hard-Left identitarians will believe — and probably accurately — that the establishment forced Harris into that position."

John D. O’Connor at Am Think thinks Biden is Pro-Israel by Day, Pro-Hamas by Night. Nick Arama at RedState points out Biden Is Asked About Humanitarian Pause, His Response Is Incredibly Weird and Concerning, "Heat pumps?"

At Am Great Steve Cortes says Biden’s Food Inflation Crushes Household Budgets. When do the cheap bugs come out? From WaEx, "FCC commissioner calls Biden equity plan for internet control 'sweeping, unprecedented, and unlawful.'" Capt. Ed comments "It sounds as though Biden’s ‘equity plan’ is Net Neutrality on Stalinist Steroids. And we already have too much government intervention in speech and dissent as it is, thanks to regulatory leverage over Big Tech. This will exponentially increase that leverage." Olivia Murray at Am Think thinks Joe Biden’s menthol cigarette ban poised to open a huge new market for Mexican cartels

At 4:58 PM, detectives conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle driven by the suspect in the city of Simi Valley. The suspect was detained, and until completion of the search warrant and was released at 6:15 PM," Fryhoff continued." Capt. Ed, "Ya think? I’m not a big fan of the ‘hate crime’ designation, but if we have to have it, then this has to qualify — or nothing does." PJM's Vicky Taft thinks What Pro-Hamas Protesters Did After Jewish Man Was Put Into Ambulance Shocks the Conscience, "The pro-Hamas protesters kept chanting with bullhorns, and then they mocked Kessler's blood on the sidewalk."  Ace, Elderly Jewish Man Killed By Pro-Hamas Demonstrator in California; Medical Examiner Rules the Death a "Passionate Homicide."

The attacker then grabbed the student’s sign and shredded it with a knife. The attacker was duly arrested. The university then issued a statement noting that the attacker’s conduct was “reprehensible, illegal, and unacceptable.” It then added, “Antisemitism, Islamophobia, or any form of bigotry have no place in our community.” Also, SHOCKED, SHOCKED, SHOCKED: "Knife-wielding NYC woman arrested for threatening Jewish volunteer who confronted her for tearing down Israel hostage posters."

Powerlifter April Hutchinson
From Insty, OH, CANADA: April Hutchinson @Lea_Christina4 "BREAKING: I now face a 2-year ban by the CPU for speaking publicly about the unfairness of biological males being allowed to taunt female competitors & loot their winnings. Apparently, I have failed in my gender-role duties as “supporting actress” in the horror show that is my #sport right now. Naturally, the CPU deemed MY written (private) complaint of the male bullying to be “frivolous and vexatious.”"
