People Behave As Though The Big Steal Did Not Happen!

 

The Steal

By Bill O’Reilly

It was always wrong.  But no one could explain exactly how votes were being corrupted in the 2020 presidential election.  Trump legal people like Rudy Giuliani and Sydney Powell ran around condemning voting machines and promoting shady allegations of fraud.  But they could never produce forensic evidence of wrongdoing - and both have suffered greatly for their advocacy.

Attorney General William Barr publicly stated that election fraud was committed. Then he disappeared.  To this day, President Trump is crazed over the vote. But he and his supporters were on the wrong trail.

I, your humble correspondent, watched closely as the situation unfolded. Corruption in precincts like Detroit, Atlanta, and Philadelphia is not exactly unheard of - is it?

But, again, no hard evidence came forward and I accurately reported that.

Now, a terrible picture is beginning to emerge and ground zero is Silicon Valley, California.

That's where Mark Zuckerberg lives.  The Facebook chief apparently took a very large financial interest in the Trump/Biden race for the White House.  How large? Well, how about $420 million dollars.

According to several reports which have not been denied, Mr. Zuckerberg donated that colossal amount of money to couple of "non-partisan," tax-exempt political operations:  The Center for Technology and Civic Life and The Center for Election Innovation and Research.

Turns out these two "centers" are about as non-partisan as Nancy Pelosi.

Reporter Mollie Hemingway, who works for Heritage, investigated the Zuckerberg situation, and calls it "genius."

Here's how it worked.

"Vote Navigators" were paid well to canvas mostly poor neighborhoods that traditionally vote for Democrats. Often, these ballot mercenaries would go inside the homes of voters.

Even though it is a crime in all 50 states to "electioneer" at polling places where you walk into and vote, it is not a criminal activity for a third party to interfere with a mail-in ballot.  That's the vital loophole.

Thousands of navigators flooded the democrat precincts In Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Virginia - all states that were close between Biden and Trump.

The navigators "assisted" voters in filling out ballots and, at times, "cured" mistakes.  That means they corrected ballots so they wouldn't be thrown out.

Sometimes the hired political guns took the actual ballots from the folks and brought them to polling places.  That is called "bundling."

The result was a much higher vote count for Joe Biden, as citizens who rarely participate in elections did so with the tutoring.

So, now we know why the left loves mail-in ballots so much.  They can easily be manipulated with guys like Zuckerberg donating cash to make it happen.

By the way, Marky Mark broke no laws. What he did was perfectly legal and if the states don't crack down on this colossal con, it will happen again in 2024.

Donald Trump lost some of the states mentioned above by extremely small margins.  So, this is an enormously important story.

But chances are you will not see it on the network news because the fix is in there, as well.  A situation of this magnitude should be front page, lead on TV, for days.

That will not happen and "the steal" could very well continue next time around.  So goes our democracy.

 The three fundamental problems with Roe v. Wade

First, and most importantly, the outcome of Roe is harmful and unjust. Why? The facts of embryology show that the human embryo or fetus (the being whose life is ended in abortion) is a distinct and living human organism at the earliest stages of development. Justice requires that the law protect the equal dignity and basic rights of every member of the human family—irrespective of age, size, ability, dependency, and the desires and decisions of others. This principle of human equality, affirmed in the Declaration of Independence and the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights, is the moral core of western civilization. But the Roe Court ruled, to the contrary, that a particular class of innocent human beings (the unborn) must be excluded from the protection of the law and allowed to be dismembered and killed at the discretion of others. "The right created by the Supreme Court in Roe," observes University of St. Thomas law professor Michael Stokes Paulsen, "is a constitutional right of some human beings to kill other human beings."

 

The second problem with Roe is that it is an epic constitutional mistake. Justice Harry Blackmun's majority opinion claimed that the "right of privacy" found in the "liberty" protected by the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment is "broad enough to encompass" a fundamental right to abortion. There is no reason to think that's true. Roe ruled that the Fourteenth Amendment somehow prevents Americans from doing what the ratifiers of the Fourteenth Amendment actually did. "To reach its result," Justice William Rehnquist quipped in his dissenting opinion, "the Court necessarily has had to find within the scope of the Fourteenth Amendment a right that was apparently completely unknown to the drafters of the Amendment."

That's absurd. "The only conclusion possible from this history," Rehnquist explained, "is that the drafters did not intend to have the Fourteenth Amendment withdraw from the States the power to legislate with respect to this matter."

 

Third, Roe is undemocratic. Roe and Doe v. Bolton together struck down the democratically decided abortion laws of all 50 states and replaced them with a nationwide policy of abortion-for-any-reason, whether the people like it or not. Of course, the Court may properly invalidate statutes that are inconsistent with the Constitution (which is the highest law). But Roe lacked any such justification.

So, these are the three fundamental and intractable problems with Roe v. Wade. The Supreme Court abused the Constitution to usurp the authority of the people by imposing an unjust policy with morally disastrous results. Unjust. Unconstitutional. Undemocratic.

What To Think About Inflation?

 The Turkey Conundrum

 

A few days ago, many of us either had the pleasure of hosting or the gift of attending a Thanksgiving get together. We caught up with friends and family, laughed, maybe watched a little football, and probably had a front-row ticket to a heated debate. At some point though we all gathered around a table and tried to figure out how we could find an angle to get the drumstick, and until science figures out how to make a turkey with more than two drumsticks, there will always be a large demand chasing a limited supply.

 

This scenario is one of the main reasons that we see quick increases in inflation numbers. There is a large amount of dollars chasing after a limited supply of goods and services. Inflation numbers are most often quoted as a year-over-year number comparing the cost of a basket of goods last year to the cost of the same basket of goods this year, and as we know from the discussion around the Thanksgiving table, last year was anything but normal.

 

In fact, the most apt parallel that can be drawn to inflation today in our opinion is what the U.S. experienced after World War II.  We had soldiers returning home, industries retooling back to providing goods for the consumer instead of the war effort, a housing boom, and a high demand for consumer goods and services. After two to three years the supply and demand sides of the inflation equation normalized and even flirted with deflation as supply overshot demand.

 So, What’s Transitory and What’s Not?

 We believe that most of the inflation we are seeing now will be transitory. There are some areas that might be a little “stickier” like finished products and services. Raw (think oil) and semi-finished goods (think lumber) will tend to be more transitory than inflation we see in finished products and services (houses, vehicles, airfares, consumer goods).

 Oil, for example, traded negative on the exchanges early on during the pandemic as there was an oversupply from producers and no one to take physical delivery of the crude oil.  Oil producers scaled back production, laid-off workers, and idled rigs as production became unprofitable. As the world got closer to normalcy and demand picked up, there was a lagging supply of oil and prices increased. Eventually, production will surpass demand as producers overproduce and we will see prices decrease and reach an equilibrium again.

 These stories will play out in countless industries as disruptions get corrected and bottlenecks cleared. It’s important to remember that after these severe disruptions that global supply chains handle like a Freightliner and not a Formula 1 car. They can neither stop or start on a dime, but given enough road and time, they are efficient. We believe that with time and a prudent hand at the wheel (Federal Reserve policy) that inflation will normalize in the future.
