    This has to be the single best video of life in the CHAZ so far *chef's kiss* :
    https://twitter.com/NorthernerPNW/st...13465606778882

    As the election campaign starts up, it has been interesting to see how Trump is approaching things this time around. His twitter account posted 2 ad videos (1 since censored by Big Tech) which give an indication of his proposed strategy:

    Ad featuring racially harmonious toddlers: https://twitter.com/sponge_it/status...72126559367168
    Ad with MAGA-hat wearing white helper to a black man in needhttps://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...99790350884864


    Feel-good and heartwarming as this is, unfortunately it only seems to be an attempt to make his voter base feel pleased with themselves: The left are the real racists. We don't even see race. If he continues with this, and ignores the difficult questions reality is posing, he may well lose this. To Biden!

    It does nothing to address the fact that we've actually had violent race riots, and related shootings, and what feels like the build up to something which could only be solved by future balkanization.

    Rather than talk to his voter base about the destructive cultural replacement, and you could argue demographic replacement (border, etc.) he's going with "don't worry - we're the good guys!". He even said "we won on DACA" at the rally...?!

    I hate to say it, but even fucking OBAMA would have been tougher on the recent law and order situation. At least he seemed comfortable (yes, that's an understatement to, say the least) with using the power of the state in illiberal ways to get things done.

    I can't wait for Biden's comments about black people at his rally.

    We have been trying to fix it through the vote for how long now? One side is playing by the rules and the other has no rules of engagement. It is an illegitimate form of voting rigged in their favor.

    From February to May, in the United States, we have had an average of 5%-10% of the populations flee from the most socialist cities. I have talked with many of them and they are still socialists with religious zeal.
    They have gone everywhere in large numbers, but Florida has been impacted the most. In addition, Florida has been impacted by the recent migration of over 500,000 Puerto Ricans fleeing their socialst paradise. It is unlikely that any non-leftist will ever win a vote in Florida again. Florida is seen as a crucial state for determining the presidential election and the power-balance of the nation.

    Return to Bezmenov's videos: We are at war. They have already taken down our names. We are all eternal enemies of theirs. We cannot continue to play by their rules and expect to win.

    We are still playing Judo; If possible, It takes much less energy to redirect your opponent's strike and allow his own momentum to bring him down (CHAZ nonintervention and police sickouts). Give voice to the censored videos. Promote nationalism. Don't fund the leftists.

    Essentially ALL of this violence/rioting/looting is occurring in cities who have voted for Democrat administrations for decades. I completely approve of the President's decision to keep the federal government out of state and local affairs where they have no constitutional authority to intervene. Had Obama intervened, it would have been pure politics, like everything else he did, so it's fine with me if you want to interpret Trump's lack of intervention as election-year politics too. People are learning a lot of important lessons right now -- class should not be dismissed just yet.

    Boats can provide significant social distancing.
    Except in Illinois, where Gauleiter Pritzker said it was OK for a family of 3 or more to drive to a lake with a boat in tow. But only two of that family can sit in that boat together no matter how big it is.

    Only comment is that FLA elected DeSantis, someone the democrats think is a Trump Parrot. He beat a black guy from Tallahassee (who's star is now significantly tarnished).

    IMO, he's handled this covid shit storm as well as could be, especially compared to other governors.

    I'm a little foggy on presidential powers, what is it President Trump should be doing, that he has the power to do?

    Obama would've been given a free pass by every major TV media outlet except Fox News regardless of WHATEVER response he would choose.

    Agreed.

    I believe the context of a surprisingly strong boat market (just as reported today on the “news”) is that expectations were for a suppressed boat market as people are either suddenly unemployed or are cash conservative.

    I am speculating that some sub set of people who are in a financially neutral situation, that are telecommuting at the same compensation as they were pre covid, potentially have real reduced expenses in terms of not commuting (potentially a very large expense), reduced activities, less vacation, entertainment etc, and have actually received additional cash in stimulus, are buying boats (and other luxury items).

    That this would have happened would have been an absurd prediction 3-4 months ago.

    Yes there were many courageous people out of the thousands in Vegas that stepped up and put themselves in harms way to help others. Perhaps 10% of the people in attendance, perhaps more, but hardly most.

    Florida is looking at a 1.39 Rt right now, 4th highest in the US. Probably not the best example.
