Normally, people constantly stopping to comment irritate the heck outta me, but when I happened upon this video, I found it not so. I think because he doesn’t spend five minute bloviating an introduction to his comments:

To say that Kahmala is dumber than a box of rocks is an insult to the rocks. She may actually be a psychopath as she has demonstrated that she cares not a whit about We The People, only her accumulation of wealth and power. She is the personification of everything that is wrong with government.
Now Christians are being as dumb about voting as Jews. Who woulda thought it ?
NEW—According to new survey data by George Barna, only 51% of “people of faith” plan to vote this November.
TRANSLATION:
– 41 million born-again Christians WILL NOT VOTE
– 32 million mainline Christians WILL NOT VOTE
This is a five-alarm fire.
The local church must be activated to explain WHY voting is critical and national leaders must not take this group for granted in key issues.
We cannot expect President Trump to have a more Christian ethos if the Church refuses to vote. We cannot expect President Trump to be more pro-life if our own people don’t back him up at the ballot box. The local church MUST be activated.
Christians, you are about to hand the White House to Kamala Harris.
Sadly this doesn’t surprise me at all, if all the normal run of the mill Americans voted we’d never have had Obama in the White House let alone Biden. ~SPITS~
About the O.C. video, I don’t have time to watch it but I saw several excerpts from the 60 Minutes interview and I will say that Bill Whitaker did a fairly good job with his questions but more importantly the follow-ups, often more than one trying to get an answer. Oh and WTH has heard of or ever seen Bill Whitaker? FWIW; Jesse Watters did a pretty good job last night with Kamala’s 60 Minutes disaster. I assume the show can be found on-line.
Oh and Mornin’ Gang
They couldn’t pay me enough to work in this company or industry. This is disgusting.
Race and Culture Unit ? This sounds like Mao’s Red Guard.
Late last week, a group of CBS News employees approached executives with their concerns about Mr. Dokoupil’s handling of the interview, according to two people with knowledge of the events, who requested anonymity to share internal discussions.
Mr. Dokoupil met for an hour with members of the CBS News standards and practices team and the in-house Race and Culture Unit, which advises on “context, tone and intention” of news programming. The conversation focused on Mr. Dokoupil’s tone of voice, phrasing and body language during his interview with Mr. Coates, one of the people said.
Mr. Dokoupil, who joined CBS News in 2016 and became a morning anchor in 2019, is a rising star at the network who recently took on an extra hour on “CBS Mornings.” He is continuing to appear on the air.
53°F !! Yes!!!
67 here but they’re saying 51 on Saturday morning. Way too early for 50’s here.
Alabama Cattleman’s Association unveils ‘60 Savory Stops’
Not surprisingly, Our Place here in Podunk was listed because of their burgers but they also included McLin’s in Daleville for their Ribeye Special. BTW; We used to go to McLins for their fried catfish but we’ve not been back since we retired 5 years ago even though we talk about going often. AND I’m pretty sure the last time I was there was with my folks, sister N husband and my future wife back in 1972, the year I graduated High School. I know, I’m so ashamed. 😉
Spotted over yonder;
The people you refer to as “uneducated hillbillies” are the men and women building back roads and bridges while you wait for someone else to do it! The people you call “dumb rednecks” are the men and women rescuing families with nothing more than a rope and maybe an ATV! The people you like to refer to as “inbred” are the men and women making sure that their “cousin kissing” neighbors have food, clothing and anything else that they need!
So the next time you’re on your “mountain vacation” mumbling snide comments, just remember: We mountain folk get things done, while you wait on someone else to do it! THIS IS A COMMUNITY! THIS IS THE MOUNTAINS!
This popped up over yonder in memories from September 9, 2016.
Good Morning! 67 degrees in Port Lavaca, beautiful morning.
Oh and I’m NOT THERE NOW. But I’d like to be. I wanted to make a Texas 35 Gulf Coast run this fall but I decided to visit daughter instead and of course my NASA buddies, along with El Gordo.
Heh.
Our local Christian school, Faith Academy, broke two six-man football records defeating Valor Prep 148-112.
Most points scored by a six-man team (148), and most combined points in a six-man game (260).
Makes me recall all the hours and hours we played football as kids in the neighbor’s front yard.
SO! Where were the 6 players from the other team? Certainly NOT on the field. 😀
The Supreme Court—often derided by progressives as a bastion of far-right extremists—will soon deal a devastating blow to the death penalty.
The court is scheduled to hear oral arguments in the case of Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip on Wednesday, and either way they rule, their decision will rock national attitudes toward capital punishment.
If the court rules in favor of Glossip, it will be acknowledging that a grave injustice has taken place, raising questions over the guilt of anyone on death row. But if the court decides against him, and Oklahoma moves forward with his execution—even though almost every powerful Republican in the state opposes it—the call to end capital punishment in the state will only grow.
It was revealed this weekend that Chinese hackers managed to access systems run by three of the largest internet service providers (ISPs) in the US.
What’s notable about the attack is that it compromised security backdoors deliberately created to allow for wiretaps by US law enforcement …
Apple famously refused the FBI’s request to create a backdoor into iPhones to help access devices used by shooters in San Bernardino and Pensacola. The FBI was subsequently successful in accessing all the iPhones concerned without the assistance it sought.
Our arguments against such backdoors predate both cases, when Apple spoke out on the issue in the wake of terrorist attacks in Paris more than a decade ago.
Any and all power given to any government will eventually be abused against the citizens. This is why qualified immunity needs to go away. Give the feds a back door to ISPs and we will all be under constant surveillance-no warrant required.
Also 53 degrees here this morning, we’re just a couple of miles west of Shannon. Wonderful to go bring in the Chron needing to wear a light jacket. Spouse has the Chron first, so I shall wait until later to dig into it.
Wife is off to Kalifornia via Dallas and Phoenix. There is usually only one stop but sometimes getting into Burbank requires an extra stop and she refuses to fly into LAX and I don’t blame her. When we were there in February, we had to fly out of LAX and that wasn’t much fun TSA lines there really SUX!
Oh and my wife gets back to PC Beach Intl about 8:30 PM on Tuesday the 15th so we decided to spend a few nights at the beach and celebrate her birthday (Oct 17) there. I’ll not mention her age but she is 10 months younger than me. We were both born on the same day and year just different months. 😉
News you can use (or not):
Mark Levin is out with an injury from a fall so KTRH is replaying Michael Berry’s show from 7-9PM for now.
I don’t think I’ve ever been to one but Tomball is getting a Gringo’s Mexican restaurant so yah for us, I guess.
Being the kind, considerate husband I am I volunteered to go to Memphis with the wife for a book opening/signing for Lisa Marie Presley’s biography started by Lisa Marie before her death and completed by daughter Riley. This is Sunday I think then we rented a cabin for a few days in Eureka Springs next week. The following weekend we have a big three day race in the Dallas area but I’m not optimistic our engine guy will get the race car transmission back together by then. People’s and their promises (sigh).
It was 62F in my driveway in Glorious Copperfield about 5:45am.
The crucial French Fry economic indicator.
Americans are revolting against McDonald’s and fast-food chains. That’s hurting french fry suppliers like Lamb Weston.
Lamb Weston, the largest producer of french fries in North America and a major supplier to fast-food chains, restaurants and grocery stores, is closing a production plant in Washington state. The company announced last week that it would lay off nearly 400 employees, or 4% of its workforce, and temporarily cut production lines in response to slowing customer demand.
Shares of Lamb Weston (LW) have dropped 35% this year.
The potato giant is oversupplied at a time when demand is sluggish. Restaurant prices in recent years have increased faster than grocery store prices, leading customers to pull back at fast-food chains.
This shift has taken a toll on Lamb Weston because people are less likely to cook french fries at home. Around 80% of french fries consumed in the United States come from fast-food chains, according to Lamb Weston.
The glass is half full.
First, let’s state the obvious… of course, Trump won in 2020. The statistics are overwhelming. Leftists often try to use statistics to “prove” racial discrimination in all sorts of situations. For some reason, they don’t seem to have the same desires and statistical certitude regarding the overwhelming statistical evidence that Trump won.
Combine this with the truckload of obvious — and unexplainable — shenanigans across many states and it is clear the rightful winner was Trump.

So, at first glance, this looks like — and felt like — a significant loss for the right and conservatism. Upon their taking office — and in this situation, it really was taking office — Biden and company immediately set out to undo basically everything Trump had done. If Trump’s fingerprints were on it, it needed to be killed. Again, this looks like a loss.
But was it? If Trump’s win had been acknowledged, he would have been President for the last 3.5 years. A whole lot of bad things in this country and across the globe wouldn’t have happened. But they did.
Please read the whole thing; he might be right.
When Todd Graves and Craig Silvey came up with the idea for a restaurant in southern Louisiana that only sold chicken fingers, they probably didn’t expect to get the lowest grade in a startup-pitching assignment for Silvey’s LSU undergraduate business class — or to get rejected for bank loans when they tried to make it a reality.
Yet the concept, which eventually became Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers, propelled Graves to his debut Tuesday on the Forbes 400, a ranking of America’s richest people. He’s reportedly the country’s 107th-richest person, with an estimated net worth of $9.5 billion, largely driven by his ownership stake in Raising Cane’s.
“If people tell you something can’t be done, it makes you strive so much more to do it,” Graves, now 52 and the company’s co-CEO, told students at Nicholls State University in 2009.
Do they own the phony preacher speaker, Kentucky McSwampTurtle and the rest of congress too?
The first-of-its-kind database, which logs sex-change procedures given to children nationwide between 2019 and 2023, catalogs a total of 5,747 minors who underwent sex-change surgeries, along with 8,579 who obtained puberty blockers or cross sex hormones.
Do No Harm believes the problem is likely even bigger than the data shows. The numbers, which are drawn from insurance claims data across all 50 states, do not include self-pay, charity payments, internal Veterans Affairs claims or patients covered by Kaiser Health Plans.
and,
The top four states for sex-change procedures include California, New York, Washington and Ohio, with more than 1,000 children in each state undergoing the procedures. In California, 2,024 children received sex-change procedures, including 1,359 who received surgeries, for a total of $28.9 million in charges.
Some guest on a news show said Republican senators and congressmen in DC were all shocked FEMA was pouring billions into COVID fraud. The authorization for it was in the last Biden/Harris omnibus spending bill that no one was even given a chance to read.

As the highly compromised phony preacher speaker says vote for me and pull my finger to hear me belch and f@rt out roll over Beethoven in 3/4 time.
it’s the only thing the republican’t party is good at besides losing and backstabbing their voters and the country.
This is how FEMA ended up in the open border business.
In the midst of the last major budget crisis in Washington, Democrats diverted money and the legal authority to put the nation’s disaster relief agency into the business of caring for the millions of illegal immigrants who crossed the border on the Biden-Harris administration’s watch. And now both parties seem to be trying to obfuscate the truth.
White House spokeswoman Karine-Jean Pierre took the lead in trying to suggest it was a “conspiracy theory” to suggest the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was using its resources to aid illegal aliens. Republicans countered with surprise and shock that FEMA had routed $640.9 million in grants to nonprofits aiding immigrants, many of whom have crossed into the U.S. illegally.
plus,
A group of Senators who did not vote for the funding measure led by James Lankford of Oklahoma, wrote a letter to President Biden last week raising concerns about how FEMA’s immigration responsibilities could be impacting its disaster readiness.
and,
The letter was also signed by GOP Sens. Josh Hawley of Missouri, Rand Paul of Kentucky, and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin.
These people are not only incompetent, they are lying, cheating bastards.
An August report from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General noted that in 2022, FEMA “estimated that 847 disaster declarations with approximately $73 billion in unliquidated funds remained open.”
Drilling down on that data, the OIG found that $8.3 billion of that total was for disasters declared in 2012 or earlier.
Such developments are part of a larger pattern in which FEMA failed to close out specific grant programs “within a certain timeframe, known as the period of performance (POP),” according to the IG report. Those projects now represent billions in unliquidated appropriations that could potentially be returned to the DRF (Disaster Relief Fund).”
How much of that money on the books actually exists in reality? I suspect that most of it has gone into the pockets of FEMA officials and other connected individuals.
We really need a Javier Millei type to take the chain saw to the federal government. Anybody associated with flying in illegals to the interior is guilty of treason in my book.
Barry Switzer has a side to him that most are unaware of.

My pooter is in Stoopid mode. Gonna take a shower, get something to eat, maybe. Still not hungry, so we’ll see.
Dental appointment this afternoon. Gonna get the last stitches out, so no more hairy gums. This will be the last check-up before the next highly dreaded surgery in early November.

Heh.

Topline: The Biden-Harris administration is eclipsing the $1 trillion mark in improper payments, a new record for wasted money in a four-year term, according to a recent report from OpenTheBooks.com.
Key facts: Improper payments — money sent by the federal government to the wrong person, for the wrong reason or in the wrong amount — totaled over $800 billion from 2021 to 2023, adjusted for inflation.
and,
Medicaid and Medicare accounted for 43% of improper payments last year, but problems were found across the board. Dead people received $295 million, mostly from pension benefits the Office of Personnel Management sent to former federal workers who had passed away. Prisoners were paid $171 million.
The Internal Revenue Service spent $25 billion doling out fraudulent and mistaken tax credits, with some IRS programs reporting mistake rates above 30%.
A rational person would assume there is something wrong with the system. The reality of the situation is that all the wasted, fraudulently spent money is a feature – not a bug. The goal of these Cloward and Piven types is to collapse the Capitalist system so that the glorious (in their eyes) Socialist system can rise in its place.

it’s a good thing the pull my finger party, who actually held the power of the purse the last two years, had our backs otherwise just think of the mess we’d really be in.
In case you didn’t know, there was a relief supply depot established in N Carolina, by locals for locals. Witnesses say there was a slow roll by of some vehicles with dark tinted windows, followed later by either one or two helicopters that “rotor washed” the depot, hovering low over the tents and canopies where the supplies were stacked. It was an attempt to destroy the non FEMA relief effort. Things went flying.
The helicopter has been identified.

I believe that I would have opened fire when that chopper was hovering.
US Secret Service officials have kept federal auditors from Donald Trump’s campaign events to hide “that the former president is not receiving a consistent level of protective assets,” according to new whistleblower allegations.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) revealed the claims in a Tuesday letter to Secret Service Acting Director Ronald Rowe — and demanded immediate answers about whether the protective agency was impeding an internal investigation into the 45th president’s security detail.
“The whistleblower alleges that the Secret Service denied access to [Department of Homeland Security] auditors because the former president is not receiving the full level of protective assets for all of his events, and Secret Service leadership wants to obscure or simply conceal this fact,” Hawley wrote.
Don’t mess with Senator Hawley, US Secret Service.
How did I miss this?! Oh I lived in the south. 😀
Liquid Tire Chain Was Pure GM Innovation
Driving in colder climates where snow, slush, and ice are a constant reality during the winter months can prove treacherous without the right equipment. GM thought it had a magical solution to vexing problem of insufficient traction using regular street tires in winter wonderlands: Liquid Tire Chain. Introduced to the market in 1969 as option V75, shoppers could get the Liquid Tire Chain Traction Dispenser on pretty much the full Chevrolet model lineup.
The way the Liquid Tire Chain Traction Dispenser system worked was actually pretty advanced for the time. The driver could activate a control on the instrument panel, which would turn on two aerosol canisters, each mounted over the rear tires. Contained in those canisters was a polymer developed in the wonders of the space age, designed to make the tire tread pliable enough to grip the cold, slippery surface again.
Also;
It’s not entirely clear whether GM’s Liquid Tire Chain solvent actually improved the grip of regular tires in winter conditions. Some claim it was a marvelous invention, but others say it was just snake oil. You should know only about 2,600 people ordered option V75 for the 1969 Chevrolet model year. Not shockingly, it was those buying full-size models who paid extra for the luxury.
When the 1970 model year debuted, the Liquid Tire Chain Traction Dispenser was nowhere to be found on the options list. Nobody seems to know why the technology was dropped, but it was mostly forgotten. Had GM forged ahead with the concept, would we have banished road salt entirely, saving untold numbers of car chassis and rocker panels? We’ll never know.
The propagandist weather channel is talking to the Kammunist right now about the hurricane.
the hell? Had to turn it immediately.
a free campaign ad and the propagandist nbc owned weather channel approves of the message.
Turns out Floridians are desperate, but not THAT desperate! Bud Lights remain completely untouched. 😀
LOLOLOLOL! Gotta keep those man cards active for the after hurricane cleanup!
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) revealed the claims in a Tuesday letter to Secret Service Acting Director Ronald Rowe — and demanded immediate answers about whether the protective agency was impeding an internal investigation into the 45th president’s security detail.
quick. Somone wake up 170 year old chuck grassley so he can send a strongly worded fax too.
But will he remember to plug in his 1948 Deskfax machine this time?
usually his faxes return with an error code of I.D.I.O.T.
josh Hawley demanded immediate answers in his letter by writing pull my finger.
I’m sure that’ll work this time.
Night of the Living Ed: Zombie Public Schools, Drained of Pandemic Lifeblood, Haunt the Land.
When teachers’ unions buy off politicians to prevent school choice, Americans call a moving company and make the choice to leave.
A significant but unknown number of public schools across the U.S., particularly in big cities, have lost so many students in the last half-decade that many of their classrooms sit empty. Gone is the loud clatter of students bursting through crowded hallways and slamming lockers.
The harm from these half-empty schools is inflicted directly on all students in a district. Without enough per-pupil state funding to cover their costs, they require financial subsidies to remain open, forcing district-wide cutbacks in academic programs.
and,
The permanent closure of schools slowed drastically during the pandemic, even though many urban districts suffered a major exodus of students, with double-digit losses in New York City and Los Angeles. Many hollowed-out districts have temporarily sidestepped the tempest of shutting schools because Congress provided them with a historic windfall of pandemic-related funding and wide latitude in spending it, said Georgetown Professor Marguerite Roza, who directs the Edunomics Lab.
Gotta leave soon for the dentist, but here’s the C&C roundup: Hurricane Trump
Good morning, C&C, it’s Wednesday! And here we go again! Hurricane Milton’s windy buzz saw will tear into Florida late this evening, so it’s anybody’s guess whether you’ll hear from us tomorrow morning. But we’ll be back right after the first hot shower. Meantime, this morning’s roundup includes: Hurricane Milton news, updates, and conspiracy theories; FEMA’s couch cushions cough up billions in covert coin despite the agency pleading poverty; Wall Street Journal shocked to find inflation falling but healthcare costs rising anyway, and what are we getting for that money again?; WaPo digs into hurricane politics and finds the same thing we’ve already noticed about what parts of the country these turbo storms have targeted; and multiple national polls show Republican self-identification surges into the lead.
BTW – My ReturnToTradition podcaster is at the hospital today. Despite all indications, his wife didn’t go into labor on her own, so today she is being induced. Induced labors are generally recognized as “harder” labors.
Prayers for Mr. and Mrs. Stine today.
Well the wife is crossing the Mississippi River near Columbia MS, @ 38K feet, 442 MPH, a little slow, been less than 500 MPH the whole trip. ETA Dallas Love 2:48 PM.
A beautiful Fall day is useful for trying to balance the rotgut stuff coming over the nets and news these days from every conceivable source known to man or beast it seems. In some cases the beast sources make much more sense than the net and newspaper sides that are busy making excuses atop excuses that everything is in order by the V. Prez and other anonymous aides.
God bless those folks who are abandoning their homes again to leave
the path of this current and very ugly storm. Those who are staying put are stupid beyond belief. Sadly, there will be bodies and parts of bodies to be counted when this one has passed and finally is dead.
Apparently, Leticia James had a real bad day in Appellate Court, and the $450 Million judgement against Trump is going to be reversed. As a side bonus, Ms. James may be disbarred.
Well, it’s about time that appellate judges were reversing the illegal garbage thrown at Mr. Trump. Ms. James certainly should be disbarred. Mr. Trump should sue her now. 🙂
Its beginning to look like Tampa Bay is going to get emptied instead of over run with a nasty storm surge.

You get ten thousand Great Husband points for this one. I pray you won’t have to stand in line for hours considering your health challenges.
I did actually watch the big interview with Elvis’ granddaughter. She appears to be the first generation in the family with some kind of mental stability. Not sure how that happened.
Thanks! From what little I’ve followed, Riley had a lot put on her plate, she is all the sudden the caretaker of all it. Now she has Graceland in her lap and millions of very old and grumpy Elvis fans who very much claim to own his reputation and legacy.
Not to mention a very divided pro/anti Priscilla fan base, half beotching whatever decisions she makes regarding her. One of a few, Priscilla wants to be buried on the grounds.
Just texted my DIL – she’s hunkering down in Orlando, staying to be part of the Disney World hurricane team. She assures me that she’ll be okay. I reminded her that she has a guardian angel. Just in case.
Newsmax reporters are reminding everyone that Florida has had lots of rainfall this year, and the ground is already saturated. Flooding is gonna be quick.
Dental appointment went well – last of the stitches were removed and I’m healing well. The next surgery, Nov. 6, will involve an open wound on my palate as part of a tissue graft. I’m **really** not looking forward to that, and Dr. Lucena is well aware of my anxiety regarding that appointment. He’s had a palate cover made for me and we tried it on today. Again, my teeth must’ve shifted around a bit – it fits, but very tightly and he had to force it a little bit to get it on. Since he had a cancellation tomorrow, I’m going in for an overdue cleaning and he’s going to cast me again for another try at the palate cover.
I kept reminding them that I wanted a cleaning before we ordered the crowns that go on the implants. As I told Dr. Lucena, I don’t want my mouth to look like a quilt when this is all done.
Have I mentioned that I really like my dentist? He is very competent, charming, great bedside manner, and oh, he’s competent.
Nov. 06, the day I complete 65 laps around the sun.
I’ll think of you as they slice my mouth. Well, no. I won’t. I’m sure I won’t. I may be praying for steady hands and a quick recovery.
They’re getting pretty good at track predictions.
But – wow – six/seven hours off on landfall?
These ‘pranksters’ need to get the stupid beaten out of them. Hospital time beating. When a few of them wind up crippled for life, perhaps then they will stop screwing with people.
I like reading the SCW website. They posted a piece about weather manipulation today because there’s been some banter about it the last couple of days and the fit hit the shan.
my observation of the the comment section is that it’s largely infested with dyed in the wool totalitariancrat sheep. The government is their god and the propagandist media is their manna.
We welcome my new grandniece, Hedi Marie to this world! 8lb 4oz and healthy! Thank you Lord.
Another blessing! Congratulations all around!
Yeah we recently had a couple spots open up in the family we needed filled, what a blessing.
MAZEL TOV!
Apparently the Waffle House gauge to disaster areas is in effect. At least I’ve seen several references to it. Harrumph.
What is SCW?
Your favorite weather site, uncklo.
Ah. Space City. Wagonburner’s favorite.
i had to look it up and guess. I can’t stand abbreviations.
Aw man, Big Boy locomotive came thru town a couple days ago and I forgot all about it.
Dude, I wrote it up here. You were supposed to put it on your calendar.
Yeah, we were planning on it from when we first heard of it. Same as last time dangit.
Well the storm just made landfall in Sarasota just south of Tampa Bay. Cat 3 120 MPH winds but hopefully it’ll calm down some as it crosses Florida. Local TV News reports that there is not one Motel/Hotel room available in Dothan. Not sure about Podunk but the KOA across the highway is packed. The Fleabag Hilton next to it looks to be only about half full. Prayers for all the folks in Milton’s path.
