Military recruitment decline portends
catastrophe, in more than one way
Posted By: Hazymac, 10/6/2022 1:12:14 PM
Allow me to concisely interpret, for your convenience, a rather lengthy news item. I may have editorialized just a bit to save space. As Army Officials Report Catastrophic Enlistment Numbers, a Scary Last Resort Just Became Reality (westernjournal.com) The US military is falling seriously short of new recruits. This is dangerously weakening our national security. Many applicants are rejected because they are too fat. Others are too stupid or too poorly educated to pass the dumbed-down qualification tests—including those who are functionally illiterate. Some do not adequately speak the English language. Some are drug addicts. Some are convicted criminals. Some have excessively

After weeks of stuttering on the campaign trail, John Fetterman, the most famous stroke victim in the country and candidate for the U.S. Senate, released his so-called “medical record” from his primary care physician, Dr. Clifford Chen of Pittsburgh’s UPMC, to clear up questions about his ability to serve.
As PJM’s Stephen Green previously noted, it wasn’t actually a medical record at all, just a doctor’s note.
According to Dr. Chen, Fetterman “spoke intelligently without cognitive deficits” and his speech “was normal and he continues to exhibit symptoms of an auditory processing disorder which can come across as hearing difficulty.”
Biden's Closing Moves

We are within three weeks of the midterm elections. Democrats’ control of the White House leaves them in a good position to mitigate anticipate losses by taking action to affect the political environment. President Biden’s handlers seem to me not to have chosen well so far.
The Biden economy inflicts pain on a daily basis. What have they got for that? They served up the Inflation Reduction Act. In other words, they have nothing to mitigate the inflation they ignited. On the contrary, they have more kindling for the fire. And they count on their ability to play on the stupidity of voters abetted by their media adjunct.
CDC Vaccine Advisory Group To Vote on Adding mRNA Vaccines to the Childhood Schedule: (Snip) The presentations and vote on the COVID vaccine for children occur on Wednesday, and the public may comment on Regulations.gov until the vote on October 20. This meeting follows the FDA and CDC expanding the use of the new Omicron jabs for children as young as five. As many, including Dr. Marty Makary from Johns Hopkins, noted, these recommendations are based on tests in mice. In a tweet, Makary said (spacing and punctuation corrected):
It appears the FDA no longer requires clinical trial data. Pfizer & Moderna’s new Omicron vax (tested in 8 mice) was authorized
It is true that I wasn’t particularly impressed with Lake’s recent response to repeated questions about whether she would accept the election results if she loses her election — especially considering how well she handles this subject other times.
When Lake has been asked about being an “election denier,” she quickly makes the reporter regret it. It’s actually amazing that the media hasn’t learned to stop asking that question. But alas, they still think they’ve found the ultimate gotcha question. They simply don’t count on Lake having the receipts to prove that, when it comes to denying election results, Republicans can’t hold a candle to Democrats, who routinely question election results
Who's in Charge of Joe Biden?

It’s safe to assume at this point that the facts that Joe Biden is not running the White House and that his mental acuity is evaporating are not state secrets. Some say signs of a problem were evident even during his term as Obama’s VP. His latest slip-up Monday during the rollout of the new website designed to stop student loan fraud is just another reminder that Biden’s prime years, such as they were, ended a long time ago. "Biden is so gone that he will literally read ANY WORDS they put on the teleprompter in front of him." (Snip) Biden’s questionable state of mind was at first alarming
“Don’t Trust Experts, Experts Say”
4 replies
I’m worried.
“Is ‘rainbow fentanyl’ a threat to your kids this Halloween? Experts say no,” NPR assures me.
And if there’s one thing we’ve learned in these past few years it’s to believe the opposite of what experts say. The media has given up trying to get people to trust it and now asks it to trust its handpicked experts. And those experts say the same exact things that the media says.
Every subject is now tackled by experts.
Do you think that a Senate candidate who can barely grasp a sentence is worrisome?
“Fetterman’s use of captions is common in stroke recovery, experts say,” the Washington Post wheedles. Experts tend to say that Democrats
Utah Senate incumbent Republican Mike Lee took on independent challenger Evan McMullin on Monday night. Some in the local media were touting the event as McMullin’s last chance to make an impression on voters and were calling the debate for Lee two hours before the event. Lee was forecasted to have an information advantage, but there was some speculation that, since he tends to be loquacious, this would act in McMullin’s favor if he was able to utilize sound-bite answers that could have audience appeal.
The pair took the stage at 6:00 PM Mountain time. The questions were submitted by viewers before and during the event. As predicted, McMullin
CNN’s CEO Chris Licht has reportedly been trying to remake the network back into the news organization it used to be rather than the Democratic partisan organization that it became under Jeff Zucker. In the process, he’s been giving the boot to a lot of the biased old guard, including Jeff Zucker, Brian Stelter, and John Harwood. Don Lemon has also been demoted to the morning. The latest scoop on who might next get the boot was that it is going to be Jim Acosta, although the network has not confirmed that yet.
But given what Jake Tapper just did, maybe he should get moved up on the list if
Two more people have pleaded guilty in the narcissistic soap opera that is January 6, this time a Utah father and his son. Salt Lake City’s Fox affiliate, KSTU is reporting that Eagle Mountain, Utah, resident Bradley Bokoski and his son, Matthew R. Bokoski, of Chicago, both pled guilty to the misdemeanor of, and I quote: “parading, demonstrating or picketing on the Capitol grounds.”
Sentencing is set for January 17.
Parading? Is that really a thing? Are the navel-gazers in the Rotunda so hard up for convictions that they are tapping people for the misdemeanor of “parading?”
No other issue has hurt John Fetterman’s U.S. Senate candidacy more than crime. In recent weeks, Dr. Mehmet Oz has closed the gap in polling largely because of this issue — which, frankly, is hurting Democrats nationwide.
Fetterman has tried to run from his soft-on-crime record and policies, but did you know what issue, of all issues, he said was his top priority?
Last year during an interview, Fetterman was asked “If you had a magic wand and you could wave it and fix one thing, what would it be?”
“Life without parole in Pennsylvania,” he said.
Adding insult to injury, he argued that doing so would save lives!
Ulta may be regretting whatever marketing “genius” came up with this idea. In a recent post on Twitter, Ulta highlighted a podcast with two grown men in makeup and wigs chatting about what it’s like to be a “girl.” The makeup giant’s target audience is obviously women. It’s probably a safe bet that over 90% of Ulta’s customers are women. The choice to put men in drag in the marketing material for a company geared toward women is backfiring big time.
#Womanface and #BoycottUlta are trending on Twitter, and the ratio of angry women telling Ulta they’re taking their business elsewhere is off the charts. It got so bad that Ulta
Olivia Murray’s excellent blog on the latest buzzword in the left’s propaganda quiver, stochastic terrorism, had me scrambling to find an academic publication on the web that explained this term. After a few attempts, up came an article titled “Stochastic Terrorism” by Molly Amman and J. Reid Meloy, published in the October 2021 issue of Perspectives on Terrorism, available in PDF form here.
The end of the article contained impressive info on the authors: (Snip) I was all set to have a look at how the authors explain “stochastic terrorism,” “psychological context,” “history and phenomenology,” “linguistic pragmatics” and “poliregression” until, way at the end of the final sentence,

Pro-abortion “D-list celebrity” Meghan Markle says she was treated like a “bimbo” and “objectified” while performing as a “briefcase girl” on the gameshow Deal or No Deal.
“Back in 2006, I had a short stint as a briefcase girl on the U.S. version of the gameshow,” Markle explained during Tuesday’s episode of her Archetypes podcast, in which she and Paris Hilton talked about the “bimbo” stereotype.
“My experience on this show, which included holding said briefcase onstage, alongside 25 other women doing the same, it was, for me, fascinating,” Markle added. “I had studied acting in college — and like a lot of the other women standing onstage with me,
Stacey Abrams, the Democratic nominee for governor in Georgia, floated abortion as a solution to voters’ concerns about inflation on Wednesday, explaining to a Morning Joe viewers that “having children is why you’re worried about your price for gas, it’s why you’re concerned about how much food costs.”
Abrams, who lost the 2018 gubernatorial election to incumbent Republican Brian Kemp, was responding to a question about what she would do to address inflation.
“While abortion is an issue, it nowhere near reaches the level of interest of voters in terms of the cost of gas, food, bread, milk… what could you do as governor to alleviate the concerns
An electric vehicle (EV) owner who takes road trips between Cheyenne and Casper in Wyoming has revealed that his first trip of 178 miles took a staggering 15 hours to complete in his electric Nissan Leaf.
“It was very difficult. For example, [it took] 15 hours to get from Cheyenne to Casper,” Alan O’Hashi told Cowboy State Daily, adding that this particular trip wasn’t taken in the beginning of the EV era. It was in May 2022.
One month later, O’Hashi was able to complete the road trip in about 11 hours, he said. To put it into perspective,
Every day, Joe Biden’s rapidly declining mental state becomes more of an issue.
Just yesterday, Biden read out D-O-T instead of saying dot-com, like a normal, mentally-fit human adult person would do.
But today, he went a step further during a Democratic National Committee event in Washington, D.C.
The View" host Joy Behar recently intimated that she finds the economic concerns of voters "sad and depressing” when compared to the threat to democracy she believes Republicans pose.
The ditzy one added that people simply don't know "what the stakes are" ahead of the midterm elections.
When ABC News political director Rick Klein stated that he believes Republicans were likely going to take the House in the upcoming election, Behar sneeringly asked him, "When your reporters say, you know, you tell me they’re [voters] worried about gas, they’re worried about this, they’re worried about that, do the reporters follow up and say
First lady Jill Biden has reportedly wielded influence over President Joe Biden’s decisions, directly participated in vetting White House officials, and worked to protect her husband from lengthy press conferences.
Jill Biden confronted senior members of the president’s staff after Joe Biden spoke at a conference in January, demanding to know who was supposed to end the conference, The New York Times reported Monday, citing a witness to the confrontation.

Journalists and other left-wing activists are freaking out over a New York Times poll that shows Republicans leading Democrats by 4 percentage points among likely voters ahead of next month's midterm elections. They were particularly aggrieved by the poll's finding that Republicans were tied with Democrats at 47 percent among female voters and were supported by 34 percent of Hispanic voters and 18 percent of black voters. Those are terrible numbers for Democrats.
We don't know how the election is going to play out, but at least one thing is guaranteed: If Democrats lose, they are going to blame everyone but themselves for the outcome.
Whoopi Goldberg threw her support behind Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, while admitting she can’t vote in the state, and said she’d prefer to see the Democrat “run for president” rather than governor.
During an interview Goldberg posted on Instagram on Wednesday, Abrams and “The View” co-host talked about all the reasons they said people should pick her over incumbent Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp. (Snip)“Tracy, Election Day is November 8th,” Goldberg said, misstating Abrams’ first name.

Corrupt Justice Department prosecutors believe they have enough evidence to bring obstruction charges against Trump.
According to The Wall Street Journal, the Trump prosecutors have seen enough evidence to bring obstruction charges, “but the path to an actual indictment is far from clear.”
Bloomberg reported:
A group of Justice Department prosecutors believe there is sufficient evidence to charge Donald Trump with obstruction of justice, but the path to an actual indictment is far from clear.
Today’s obsession from various groups on the left with bringing sex up around children has gotten so bad that they’re now openly admitting it’s a goal around any given project. With the writers of the Disney/Marvel “She-Hulk” series, they admit to wanting to make a show that kids could tune in to watch while the characters talk about sex lives and hooking up. Effectively, the writers attempted to create a show that mixes superheroes with “Sex in the City.”
According to Bounding Into Comics, the writers admitted to wondering just how far they could go with talk about sex, with one of the actresses encouraging it to go farther and farther:
With as much tepid enthusiasm as I can muster, I am happy to report that John Fetterman’s chances of being elected continue to dwindle. That’s the good news. In some respects, that’s the only news. Fetterman is unfit, unqualified, and a disaster in the making for this country if he’s elected. We do not need anymore Democrats in the upper chamber. As unlikeable, concerning, and squishy as Dr. Mehmet Oz seems, at least he isn’t his opponent.

Eventually if not much sooner, reality is going to hit this great Nation in the face. If we tolerate everything, we are left with chaos.
