Vice President Kamala Harris was elected the 47th president of the United States. Two years later, the nation is still marked by political polarization and economic uncertainty. On July 4, 2026, America celebrates 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Perhaps the most striking feature of this alternate 2026 is tonal. The central theme of Harris’ speech at the 2024 Democratic National Convention was “Take Back the Flag,” a message she had touted since her days serving as a senator from California. Since her closing argument during that campaign emphasized “turning the page” on division, it’s safe to say that unity in the name of patriotism would be her paramount goal during the festivities. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The morning begins in Philadelphia, where President Harris delivers remarks from Independence Hall. Behind her hangs the same flag that has witnessed countless presidential speeches. Rather than framing the anniversary as a victory for one political party, she describes it as a milestone belonging to every American. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Harris’ address at the site of the Declaration’s signing does not shy away from America’s contradictions. She references slavery alongside liberty, exclusion alongside opportunity and struggle alongside progress. Instead of presenting history as either flawless or irredeemably broken, she portrays the United States as an ongoing democratic experiment whose greatest strength lies in its ability to reform itself. Harris ends her Philadelphia pilgrimage with a quiet, deliberate visit to the President’s House, where George Washington and John Adams lived during the bulk of their presidencies, and where the structural slavery exhibit still stands as a testament to the nation’s complex foundations. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Back in Washington, D.C., the atmosphere feels less like a presidential production and more like a national family reunion. Instead of the protective fortification of concrete barriers and razor wire, the National Mall is marked by a sprawling, deliberate openness. The air carries the distinct rhythm of go-go music — a genre founded in D.C. —  drifting from a stage near the Smithsonian and mingling with the scent of street food from vendors who have set up shop along paths not too heavily policed. The official semiquincentennial parade down Constitution Avenue is led not by military armor but by marching bands from the nation’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Gospel choirs, country musicians, jazz ensembles, mariachi groups, Indigenous performers, military bands and local community orchestras share stages throughout the city. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The diversity — of people, of music, of food — is intentional and natural: In Kamala Harris’s America, patriotism is defined less by isolated executive spectacle than by systemic civic participation. This broader, decentralized spirit manifests visibly across the country. Libraries host readings of the Declaration of Independence. Museums waive admission fees. National parks feature volunteer service projects. Small towns hold July Fourth breakfasts for first responders and military families, city neighborhoods stage local history walks and the Smithsonian offers nationwide digital exhibits that are accessible all year to nearly every public school classroom. Instead of treating history as a static, unyielding marble monument to be worshiped blindly, the nation is encouraged to treat it as a shared inheritance — one that has been unevenly distributed across generations, but that remains collectively owned. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Harris administration would treat the Fourth as a civic report card: Here is what the country has done, here is who has benefited and here is what still needs fixing before the 300th. In that world, fireworks might be accompanied by announcements about climate resilience projects or summer meal expansions for children. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The reality of July 4, 2026, under the all-too-real administration of Donald Trump, stands in brutal, absolute opposition to the inclusive civic vision that might have been. Rather than allowing America250, the nonpartisan organization Congress established in 2016 to lead a unifying national commemoration, the Trump White House staged a hostile takeover of the anniversary. When the leadership of the America250 Foundation resisted demands to transform the semiquincentennial into a hyper-partisan, campaign-style spectacle centered entirely on the president, the administration simply bypassed them altogether. They constructed Freedom 250 LLC, a shadow corporate entity embedded within the National Park Foundation, effectively hijacking the national celebration to serve a singular man’s vanity, political ideology and private financial interests.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;According to an explosive interim congressional report released by Democrats on the House Natural Resources Committee’s oversight subcommittee, this shadow organization allegedly converted a historic public milestone into a sprawling web of corruption and pay-to-play schemes. Fundraisers for Freedom 250 systematically diverted resources away from the official, bipartisan commission. The report documents instances that may constitute federal wire fraud, revealing that unsuspecting private donors who intended to support the congressionally chartered foundation were apparently surreptitiously handed Freedom 250’s bank account and routing numbers instead. Presidential access was openly commercialized, the report alleges, with sponsorship packages starting at $500,000 and climbing above $10 million, offering wealthy individuals and corporations facing impending federal regulations an “historic photo opportunity” with Trump on the South Lawn of the White House.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Where Harris’s alternate anniversary seeks to engage with the full, complicated tapestry of the American narrative, Trump’s reality imposes a falsified, heavily sanitized history designed to suit a distorted vision of the past. In a move that lays bare the administration’s contempt for democratic norms, an organization previously responsible for planning events surrounding the Jan. 6 insurrection was officially contracted to help orchestrate the nation’s 250th birthday celebrations. Christian nationalist ideology has been aggressively injected into official government events, systematically eroding the constitutional wall of church-state separation. Under loose and unchecked logo licensing, Freedom 250 has allowed deeply racist merchandise to be branded and sold under the official government banner. According to the interim congressional report, the private, personal information of ordinary Americans has been actively harvested; thousands of citizens who signed up through registration systems for free public events, such as a FIFA World Cup Fan Zone on the National Mall, apparently had their data unknowingly fed directly into a Republican political campaign apparatus.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ultimately, what a different outcome might genuinely have changed is more than tonal. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The physical reality of our capital city today reflects Trump’s obsession with gaudy, commercialized authoritarianism. The White House is dominated by fake gold trinkets. The president’s social media feed pumps out deranged artificial intelligence-generated promotional videos. Trump parades his family around in a jet once owned by a foreign country that cost taxpayers $400 million to retrofit. Meanwhile, his ongoing plans to bulldoze his way through destroying the historical and aesthetic integrity of Washington are projected to siphon more than $1 billion of American taxpayer money.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Whether the country’s 250th birthday feels like a rare civic milestone to celebrate or not depends, for many, on acknowledging the harsh truths of our era. While Kamala Harris was not elected in 2024, I can take the smallest comfort in knowing that, back in the reality of Donald Trump’s America, his national boondoggle on the Mall has failed miserably.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35566041</link><pubDate>7/4/2026 5:08:31 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Maple MAGA ] Are There Really 'No Bad Ideas' When It Comes To 'Saving Or Democracy'?

Harris recently opined that there are “ &lt;a href='https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/harris-no-bad-idea-brainstorm-for-dems-includes-packing-scotus-eliminating-electoral-college/ar-AA23e2Fd?ocid=BingNewsSerp' target='_blank'&gt;no bad ideas&lt;/a&gt;” when it comes to brainstorming ways to reinvigorate the Democrat party.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src='https://files.zhedge.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1920,quality=75,format=auto/https://assets.zerohedge.com/s3fs-public/inline-images/0vwxkkx4tbhy1ashylej_640.jpg'&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;During  a May 13th livestream on something called the "Win with Black Women"  podcast, Hic! Harris suggested that the Democrat party prepare an  "expanded playbook" of ideas to help it retake power after the 2026  midterm elections.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Harris  &lt;a href='http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/harris-no-bad-idea-brainstorm-for-dems-includes-packing-scotus-eliminating-electoral-college/ar-AA23e2Fd?ocid=BingNewsSerp' target='_blank'&gt;opined&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;"And  in that no bad ideas brainstorm, we talk about what we need to do and  think about doing around the Electoral College. We talk about the idea  of Supreme Court reform, which includes expanding the Supreme Court. We  invite a conversation about multi-member districts."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;The  old sot suggested that, when Democrats retake the Senate, the Senate  Judiciary Committee should quickly establish rules to "penalize people  for lying" for Supreme Court justices and nominees.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;It is always hilarious when Democrats speak of their dislike for lying … and always lie. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They are to prevarication as Kamala is to drinking, as retrievers are to … retrieving things. They can’t help themselves.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Tipsy One added,&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;“Let&amp;#39;s talk about statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C. These are the things I think that we&amp;#39;ve got to do.”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;She concluded by saying of Democrats:&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;"We gotta fight fire with fire. We gotta be ruthless, too."&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;Democrats &lt;i&gt;start &lt;/i&gt;fires.  (They don’t always put them out, as clearly demonstrated in Los Angeles  County last year.) And Democrats have always been ruthless, whether  they were plantation owners or, more recently, possessed by Trump  Derangement Syndrome (TDS) and the rabid desire to dispense, by any  means necessary, with those with whom they disagree.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;As for the notion that there are no bad ideas?&lt;/b&gt;  How about “Let’s kill all the Jews” or “Islam is totally compatible  with a free, democratic republic?” Or even, “I’ve only had 10 rum and  cokes, I think I’ll take a nice drive in my car?” And let’s be honest,  Kamala doesn’t have brain&lt;i&gt;storms&lt;/i&gt;, she has perhaps a mild squall or minor dust-up on occasion, maybe even a moderate gust of wind, but no brainstorms.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So,  Democrats, just continue to call conservatives Nazis. Keep trying to  imprison all your political opponents. An assassination or two might be  needed here and there to, you know, “save our democracy.” (The problem  is that Democrats actually think the country is &lt;i&gt;their &lt;/i&gt;democracy, and that no one else has a right to govern it.)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Kamala may still have her mind set on Running for President Under the Influence (RPUI), but it is hard to see &lt;i&gt;any&lt;/i&gt; current  likely Democrat heading a ticket the equal of Vance-Rubio or  vice-versa. As sure as water is wet, Democrats will resort to their  time-tested tactics of slander, libel, lies, gas-lighting, projection,  and cheating.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maybe they should just, hic!, forcibly take power via a good, old-fashioned insurrection?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Anything to save their our democracy, right? &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35520765</link><pubDate>5/18/2026 1:58:15 AM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Wharf Rat] [youtube video]</title><author>Wharf Rat</author><description /><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35513353</link><pubDate>5/10/2026 12:39:50 AM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Thomas M.] “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask when imma get mine.”    [X]

A lengthy Dec. 2025 New York Times puff piece on her attempted to dispel that impression but only ended up reinforcing it. The Paper of Record asked: “She was seen for two decades as a future face of the Democratic Party. Is she now suddenly a figure of its past?”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The answer seemed to scream from every pathetic detail the Times adduced to try to show her continuing relevance and viability as a candidate: yes, Harris is done, she was a DEI hire, and the wave of DEI hires has crested; the pendulum even among Democrats is swinging back toward at least the appearance of competence.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Even Harris herself struck an elegiac note, insisting that she was bound for the history books: “I understand the focus on ’28 and all that. But there will be a marble bust of me in Congress. I am a historic figure like any vice president of the United States ever was.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When a politician starts speaking about his or her place in history, you know the electorate won’t have her to kick around anymore, and that seemed to be eminently the case with Harris is more details emerged of the disastrous failures of her 2024 presidential campaign. The left’s attention turned to seemingly more sellable candidates such as Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg (really).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Yet now Harris doesn’t appear to be content to be just another bust in the Hall of Useless Politicians. At the National Action Network on Friday, she told the Rev. Al Sharpton, who would like nothing better than to play king- or queenmaker that she was strongly considering running for president in 2028: “Listen, I might, I might. I’m thinking about it. I’ll keep you posted.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The crowd appeared thrilled to hear this, as Harris’ forty minutes on stage “was peppered with cheers and a standing ovation from attendees.” Politico noted that “the former vice president has toyed with the idea before, but her comments Friday took on a new meaning in front of an audience full of Black lawmakers, influential power brokers and voters at what amounted to the first major cattle-call for the potential 2028 Democratic field.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Harris, after spectacularly botching not only her presidential campaign, but also her tenure in one of the least demanding jobs on the planet, the vice presidency, actually claimed to be the experienced candidate, telling Sharpton: “I know what the job is and what it requires.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Yeah, no. Kamala Harris was an ineffectual and responsibility-evading (remember, she was the “border czar” who never went to the border) second banana to a figurehead president in the throes of dementia. Other people were actually exercising the powers of the presidency; all Harris and Biden did was act as fronts for the real authorities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There is more. Read the rest here.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35487127</link><pubDate>4/12/2026 10:42:17 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Maple MAGA ] koan is leader of the yellow-dog tribalist pack of wolves.

So  basically, that&amp;#39;s bad," explained Harris. "I&amp;#39;ve had time now to reflect,  and I&amp;#39;m thinking I should do that again. Last time, I got to meet Cardi  B and see a yellow school bus. Who doesn&amp;#39;t love a yellow school bus?  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Am I right?"&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Veterans of Harris&amp;#39;s 2024 campaign  expressed interest in losing once more, but in a different way. "Kamala  is deeply unlikable and incompetent, and we think we can leverage that  into another national embarrassment," said former campaign manager Julie  Rodriguez. "We&amp;#39;ve already seen some solid internal polling that shows  Kamala could be in a great position to lose in 2028, maybe even worse  than in 2024. She could lose all sorts of new states. It&amp;#39;s really  exciting to think about."&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;At publishing time, Kamala had announced that she also had yet to rule out ordering a fourth glass of wine.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35485462</link><pubDate>4/10/2026 10:43:04 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Maple MAGA ] Some Questions for Kamala Harris About Eligibility  The  fact that Senator Kamal...</title><author>Maple MAGA </author><description>&lt;span id="intelliTXT"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Some Questions for Kamala Harris About Eligibility&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The  fact that Senator Kamala Harris has just been named the vice  presidential running mate for presumptive Democratic presidential  nominee Joe Biden has some questioning her eligibility for the position.  The 12th Amendment provides that "no person constitutionally ineligible  to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President  of the United States." And Article II of the Constitution specifies that  "[n]o person except a natural born citizen...shall be eligible to the  office of President." Her father was (and is) a Jamaican national, her  mother was from India, and neither was a naturalized U.S. citizen at the  time of Harris&amp;#39; birth in 1964. That, according to these commentators,  makes her not a "natural born citizen"—and therefore ineligible for the  office of the president and, hence, ineligible for the office of the  vice president.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"Nonsense," runs the counter-commentary. Indeed,  PolitiFact rated the claim of ineligibility as "Pants on Fire" false,  Snopes rated it simply "False," and from the other side of the political  spectrum, Conservative Daily News likewise rated it "False." All three  (and numerous others) simply assert that Harris is eligible because she  was born in Oakland—and is therefore a natural-born citizen from  location of birth. The 14th Amendment says so, they all claim, and the  Supreme Court so held in the 1898 case of U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But  those claims are erroneous, at least as the Citizenship Clause of the  14th Amendment was originally understood—an error to which even my good  friend, renowned UCLA School of Law professor Eugene Volokh, has fallen  prey.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The language of Article II is that one must be a  natural-born citizen. The original Constitution did not define  citizenship, but the 14th Amendment does—and it provides that "all  persons born...in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction  thereof, are citizens." Those who claim that birth alone is sufficient  overlook the second phrase. The person must also be "subject to the  jurisdiction" of the United States, and that meant subject to the  complete jurisdiction, not merely a partial jurisdiction such as that  which applies to anyone temporarily sojourning in the United States  (whether lawfully or unlawfully). Such was the view of those who  authored the 14th Amendment&amp;#39;s Citizenship Clause; of the Supreme Court  of the United States in the 1872 Slaughter-House Cases and the 1884 case  of Elk v. Wilkins; of Thomas Cooley, the leading constitutional  treatise writer of the day; and of the State Department, which, in the  1880s, issued directives to U.S. embassies to that effect.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The  Supreme Court&amp;#39;s subsequent decision in Wong Kim Ark is not to the  contrary. At issue there was a child born to Chinese immigrants who had  become lawful, permanent residents in the United States—"domiciled" was  the legally significant word used by the Court. But that was the extent  of the Court&amp;#39;s holding (as opposed to broader language that was dicta,  and therefore not binding). Indeed, the Supreme Court has never held  that anyone born on U.S. soil, no matter the circumstances of the  parents, is automatically a U.S. citizen.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Granted, our  government&amp;#39;s view of the Constitution&amp;#39;s citizenship mandate has morphed  over the decades to what is now an absolute "birth on the soil no matter  the circumstances" view—but that morphing does not appear to have begun  until the late 1960s, after Kamala Harris&amp;#39; birth in 1964. The children  born on U.S. soil to guest workers from Mexico during the Roaring 1920s  were not viewed as citizens, for example, when, in the wake of the Great  Depression, their families were repatriated to Mexico. Nor were the  children born on U.S. soil to guest workers in the bracero program of  the 1950s and early 1960s deemed citizens when that program ended, and  their families emigrated back to their home countries.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So before  we so cavalierly accept Senator Harris&amp;#39; eligibility for the office of  vice president, we should ask her a few questions about the status of  her parents at the time of her birth.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Were Harris&amp;#39; parents lawful  permanent residents at the time of her birth? If so, then under the  actual holding of Wong Kim Ark, she should be deemed a citizen at  birth—that is, a natural-born citizen—and hence eligible. Or were they  instead, as seems to be the case, merely temporary visitors, perhaps on  student visas issued pursuant to Section 101(15)(F) of Title I of the  1952 Immigration Act? If the latter were indeed the case, then  derivatively from her parents, Harris was not subject to the complete  jurisdiction of the United States at birth, but instead owed her  allegiance to a foreign power or powers—Jamaica, in the case of her  father, and India, in the case of her mother—and was therefore not  entitled to birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment as  originally understood.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Interestingly, this recitation of the  original meaning of the 14th Amendment Citizenship Clause might also  call into question Harris&amp;#39; eligibility for her current position as a  United States senator. Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution  specifies that to be eligible for the office of senator, one must have  been "nine Years a Citizen of the United States." If Harris was not a  citizen at birth, we would need to know when (if ever) she became a  citizen. Her father&amp;#39;s biographical page at Stanford University  identifies his citizenship status as follows: "Jamaica (by birth); U.S.  (by naturalization)." But there is some dispute over whether he was in  fact ever naturalized, and it is also unclear whether Harris&amp;#39; mother  ever became a naturalized citizen. If neither was ever naturalized, or  at least not naturalized before Harris&amp;#39; 16th birthday (which would have  allowed her to obtain citizenship derived from their naturalization  under the immigration law, at the time), then she would have had to  become naturalized herself in order to be a citizen. That does not  appear to have ever happened, yet without it, she could not have been  "nine Years a Citizen of the United States" before her election to the  U.S. Senate.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I have no doubt that this significant challenge to  Harris&amp;#39; constitutional eligibility to the second-highest office in the  land will be dismissed out of hand as so much antiquated constitutional  tripe. But the concerns about divided allegiance that led our nation&amp;#39;s  Founders to include the "natural-born citizen" requirement for the  office of president and commander-in-chief remain important; indeed,  with persistent threats from Russia, China and others to our sovereignty  and electoral process, those concerns are perhaps even more important  today. It would be an inauspicious start for any campaign for the  highest offices in the land to ignore the Constitution&amp;#39;s eligibility  requirements; how else could we possibly expect the candidates, if  elected, to honor their oaths to "faithfully execute the Office of  President of the United States, and...to the best of [their] Ability,  preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States?"&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Dr.  John C.

It’s the final step in a victory for  the pro-life advocate who exposed Planned Parenthood and the abortion  industry for selling the body parts of aborted babies.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The  dismissal ends a nearly decade-long Democrat-led prosecution launched to  silence his undercover videos that exposed Planned Parenthood’s grisly  aborted baby parts trade.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The dismissal fulfills the terms of a  January 2025 settlement in which California dropped all charges against  Daleiden and undercover reporter Sandra Merritt. The agreement required  no jail time, no fines, no admission of wrongdoing and no probation.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The  prosecution began under then-California Attorney General Kamala Harris  after Daleiden’s 2015 videos were released. In the January 2025  statement marking the initial settlement, Daleiden described the case as  political lawfare.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“After enduring 9 years of weaponized  political prosecution, putting an end to the lawfare launched by Kamala  Harris is a huge victory for my investigative reporting and for the  public’s right to know the truth about Planned Parenthood’s sale of  aborted baby body parts. Now we all must get to work to protect families  and infants from the criminal abortion-industrial complex,” he said.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Defense attorney Steve Cooley, former Los Angeles County District Attorney, sharply criticized the long-running effort.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“In  my 5 decades as an attorney, 40 years of which were as a prosecutor, I  have never seen such a blatant exercise of selective investigation and  vindictive prosecution. The California Attorneys General who initiated  this case and pursued it for nearly 10 years should be ashamed for  weaponizing their office to pursue people who were merely exposing  illegality associated with the harvesting and sale of fetal body parts,”  Cooley said.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Daleiden’s videos led to a $7.8 million settlement  in which two companies admitted illegally selling aborted baby parts  obtained from Planned Parenthood abortion centers in Southern  California.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a class='ExternURL' href='https://www.lifenews.com/2026/04/02/final-charge-dismissed-against-david-daleiden-for-exposing-planned-parenthood-aborted-baby-part-sales/' target='_blank' &gt;lifenews.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tom&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35478120</link><pubDate>4/3/2026 3:59:01 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Maple MAGA ] Well, they have one thing going for them...

This phenomenon is particularly noted in state-level politics and among general voter registration numbers in certain swing states. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Key Observations&lt;br&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Voter Registration Shifts:&lt;/b&gt; Analysis of voter data in battleground states like Pennsylvania and North Carolina shows the Republican Party significantly closing the registration gap with Democrats, largely through party switchers. In North Carolina, Republicans recently surpassed Democrats in registration for the first time in history, though the largest group remains unaffiliated voters.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;State Legislator Switches:&lt;/b&gt; There has been a notable number of state lawmakers switching parties. Since 1994, 83 state lawmakers switched from Democrat to Republican, while only 23 went the other way. Recent examples from late 2024 and 2025 in Florida and South Dakota have seen House Democrats join the Republican ranks.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Motivations for Switching:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ideology:&lt;/b&gt; Some individuals feel their conservative views are no longer aligned with a Democratic Party that has shifted more toward liberalism.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Political Opportunity:&lt;/b&gt; In "deep red states," it can be difficult for a Democrat to get elected, and switching parties can improve a politician&amp;#39;s chances of re-election.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Policy Disagreement:&lt;/b&gt; Specific policies can also be a factor. For example, one South Dakota representative cited the GOP&amp;#39;s platform on decentralized government and tribal sovereignty as aligning with her principles, contrasting it with what she described as well-intentioned but ultimately undermining Democratic reforms.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;General Trends:&lt;/b&gt; While most voters rarely switch parties, the recent shifts have generally favored the GOP. From 2020 through July 2025, for example, nearly twice as many Pennsylvania Democrats switched to become Republicans than the reverse. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Historical Context&lt;br&gt;Party switching is not a new phenomenon in American politics. Notable historical figures who started as Democrats and later became Republicans include Ronald Reagan and Strom Thurmond. The most significant historical realignment occurred over several decades as white Southern Democrats, disillusioned with the national Democratic Party&amp;#39;s stance on civil rights, gradually became Republicans, transforming the political landscape of the South.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35382468</link><pubDate>1/6/2026 10:34:32 AM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Trader77] An old white dude, who was once a 100% Trump supporting cult member, returns to ...</title><author>Trader77</author><description>&lt;span id="intelliTXT"&gt;An old white dude, who was once a 100% Trump supporting cult member, returns to the Trump cult and the Trump cult goes nuts because so few people support him these days they go nuts anytime someone says they actually support the deranged moron.

Tim Walz  systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring,  threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports.  Instead of partnership, we got the full weight of retaliation by Tim  Walz, certain DFL members and an indifferent mainstream media. It’s  scary, isolating and left us wondering who we can turn to.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In  addition to retaliating against whistleblower, Tim Walz disempowered the  Office of the Legislative Auditor, allowing agencies to disregard their  audit findings and guidance. Media and politicians supporting Tim Walz  or the DFL-agenda attacked whistleblowers who were trying to raise red  flags on fraudulent activities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This is a cascade of systemic  failures leading up to Tim Walz. Agency leaders appointed by Tim Walz  willfully disregarded rules and laws to keep fraud reports quiet - even  to the extent of threatening families of whistleblowers. These same  leaders are not qualified for their jobs, instead getting leadership  jobs via Tim Walz’s friendship so state government were left  floundering. DFL lawmakers refused to acknowledge fraud and deflected  any serious conversation to stop fraud. Biased mainstream media such as  WCCO and MPR showed absolutely no interest in covering fraud happening  in our own state. Programs, especially in behavioral health and  disability services were built without any guardrails against fraud, all  in an attempt to extract more funding from legislature and the federal  government.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As staff, we firsthand witnessed and observed fraud  happening yet we were shutdown, reassigned and told to keep quiet.  Sometimes more. Leadership did not want to appear to discriminate  against certain communities and were unwilling to take action, such as  stopping fraud, that would have an adverse impact on their image. To  date, no single agency leader has been held responsible for their role  in fraud whether it’s Shireen Gandhi, Jess Geil, Jodi Harpstead, Natasha  Merz, Eric Grumdahl or others.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It is a structure created and  maintained by Tim Walz who has created an environment of inter-related  agencies and institutions including the media - that help foster fraud  through retaliation and turning a blind eye in exchange for political  gain in the form of high power agency leadership jobs or other perks. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Fundamentally,  Tim Walz is dishonest, lacks ethics and integrity, has poor leadership  abilities, and has never taken any accountability for his role in fraud.  Instead, Tim Walz deflects by blaming national politics for his own  failings and distracts the public with inveterate lying. These lies  include his reference of a budget surplus under his tenure. Fact is,  Minnesota never had a surplus, we had been given federal ARPA funds that  were conflated as surplus money otherwise, we’d be in a deficit.

Yet even with that sales figure, it hit the New York Times bestseller list at No. 4. (The Times bestseller list does not disclose its data sources.)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;This follows other second-term Trump books experiencing lackluster sales. “Trump in Exile,” by the Wall Street Journal’s Meridith McGraw, has sold roughly 2,000 copies since its release last August, according to BookScan. Axios’ Alex Isenstadt’s “Revenge: The Inside Story of Trump’s Return to Power,” published in March, has sold around 3,000 copies so far, according to BookScan.

Maddow raised one of the most controversial revelations, where Kamala admitted that she passed over Pete Buttigieg as a potential running mate in 2024 because he’s gay:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We were already asking a lot of America: to accept a woman, a Black woman, a Black woman married to a Jewish man. Part of me wanted to say, Screw it, let&amp;#39;s just do it. But knowing what was at stake, it was too big of a risk. And I think Pete also knew that -- to our mutual sadness.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maddow broached the subject gently but directly. “With you running as, you know, you’re the first woman elected vice president, you’re a black woman and a South Asian woman, uh, elected to that high office, very nearly elected president,” Maddow began, though “very nearly elected” is a point that could easily be disputed. “To say that he couldn’t be on the ticket effectively because he was gay is hard to hear,” said the lesbian host.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you thought Kamala would be prepared for such an accusation, you were wrong. She was clearly taken aback.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“No, no, no,” she insisted. “That’s not what I said, that that’s, that he couldn’t be on the ticket because he is gay.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The problem for Kamala, of course, is that this is exactly how it came across in her own book. And after denying that she ever suggested such a thing, she immediately launched into an explanation that essentially confirmed it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“My point in, as I write in the book, is that I was clear that in 107 days, in one of the most hotly contested elections for president of the United States, against someone like Donald Trump, who knows no floor … to be a black woman running for president of the United States and, as a vice presidential running mate, a gay man, with the stakes being so high, it made me very sad. But I, I also realized, it would be a real risk.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Shall we do a recap? In the span of a few minutes, Harris denied she passed on Buttigieg for being gay, then explained at length how she passed on Buttigieg for being gay.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Classic Kamala.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Naturally, she then tried to frame the decision as painful but pragmatic. “No matter how, you know I’ve been an advocate and an ally of, of the LGBT community my entire life,” she said. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maddow responded, “Oh, to say the least.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“So it wasn’t about, it wasn’t about — yeah, right,” Harris continued. “So it wasn’t about any, any prejudice on my part. But we had such a short—”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“It’s that calculation, though,” Maddow cut in.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“…We had such a short period of time,” Kamala continued. “And the stakes were so high.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;he contradiction in her defense was glaring. She didn&amp;#39;t want people to see her as prejudiced, but her reasoning focused on the public&amp;#39;s perception of Buttigieg&amp;#39;s sexuality. She claimed she had to choose between loyalty to the LGBT movement and the cold political calculus of beating Donald Trump. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So, obviously, she chose Tim Walz as her running mate. &amp;#175;\_(?)_/&amp;#175;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Trashing Buttigieg’s dismal record as Transportation Secretary would have been an easier angle to sell to the left.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This trainwreck of an interview perfectly encapsulates everything wrong with Kamala Harris. She can’t even keep her own lies straight for five minutes. If she can’t handle softball questions from her biggest media ally about her own book, how exactly was she supposed to handle Putin or Xi Jinping?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a class='ExternURL' href='https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2025/09/23/the-kamala-book-tour-is-already-going-off-the-railsand-you-have-to-see-why-n4944005' target='_blank' &gt;pjmedia.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src='/public/3483469_05b4f13567a3e57f8b5f99b8ff3f4f10.jpg'&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35271372</link><pubDate>9/23/2025 10:58:22 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Thomas M.] "Thank you, Diddy."  - Kamala Harris  [X]

Tim Walz and his  connections to the Chinese Communist Party, especially after he was  selected by Vice President Kamala Harris as her presidential running  mate last year. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Homeland Security turned over the documents to  watchdog group Judicial Watch, which had filed a Freedom of Information  Act (FOIA) request and sued the government earlier this year, seeking  communications in an agency group chat that allegedly referenced the  probe into Walz. The existence of those messages was shared with the  House Oversight Committee last year by whistleblowers, but&lt;b&gt; the Biden-era DHS resisted turning over responsive documents. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“China  is happy,” one Homeland Security employee wrote in an explosive message  to the group chat called “NST NFT Bi-Weekly Sync” on August 7, 2024,  one day after Harris announced Walz as her running mate, the memos show.  The employee linked a BBC News article detailing Chinese internet  reactions to the choice, which were reported as largely positive. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In  response, another employee, whose name is also redacted, suggested  looping in the FBI due to its responsibility for domestic  counterintelligence, the messages show. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;“[W]ith FBI mission in the CI field i [sic] believe they need to get included,” the employee wrote. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The  documents provide the clearest evidence yet of the alarm bells sounding  in U.S. government counterintelligence circles about the Minnesota  governor’s selection to be Harris’s running mate. &lt;b&gt;Those concerns  stemmed from Walz’s longstanding ties to China and favorable  interactions with its governing Communist Party dating back years.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a class='ExternURL' href='https://justthenews.com/government/security/china-happy-new-memos-shed-more-light-agency-concerns-about-tim-walz-ccp' target='_blank' &gt;justthenews.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tom&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35217900</link><pubDate>8/7/2025 9:02:36 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Thomas M.] A left-wing podcaster refused to air his interview with Kamala Harris before the...</title><author>Thomas M.</author><description>&lt;span id="intelliTXT"&gt;A left-wing podcaster refused to air his interview with Kamala Harris before the election because it made her look so bad.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;[X]&lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;&lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;RELEASE THE TAPES!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This podcaster refused to air his interview with Kamala Harris before the election—it was that bad.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"Her take was really confusing &amp;amp; weird and...not good...I didn&amp;#39;t want to be blamed for her losing...she said bacon is a spice." 🤡 &lt;a href="https://t.co/gjbiSmyunD"&gt;pic.twitter.com/gjbiSmyunD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&amp;mdash; Townhall.com (@townhallcom) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1943416149934510218?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;July 10, 2025&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

He won the electoral vote, which decides the winner, by a resounding 312 to 226.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Several polls before the election had either a tie or Harris on top in the popular vote.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the hypothetical rematch, Harrisheld a significant advantage among those who say they did not vote in 2024.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Among these, 36 percent of respondents backed Harris and 22 percent voting for Trump. Forty-three percent of non-voters surveyed said they still would not vote in 2024.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Limiting to those who voted, Trump&amp;#39;s support is lower than the real 2024 result at a 43-43 tie.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Why It Matters&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Despite her loss in the 2024 presidential race, Harris is viewed as a top contender for the 2028 election, which will likely see a crowded field of Democrats vying for the party&amp;#39;s nomination. Harris hasn&amp;#39;t said for sure she plans to run, and she is also speculated to be considering a run for California&amp;#39;s governorship in 2026.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35137039</link><pubDate>5/15/2025 2:58:16 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Thomas M.] Same ole Kamala ...

Conversely, she talks about people who are exceptionally altruistic—those who go out of their way to help others, often at great personal risk. These individuals are humble, believe in the goodness of others, and are highly empathetic.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She concludes by explaining that acts of generosity have been increasing on a global scale, and how these trends have proven that it is possible for individuals to change their own natural levels of altruism. Through awareness and action, we can build a more caring and helpful society for ourselves and generations to come.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=35108625</link><pubDate>4/18/2025 5:03:04 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>[Broken_Clock] LOL!
