another example of mail-in ballot fraud.
🚨 MIDTERM ELECTION FRAUD 🚨 At 8:11am this morning, someone else went IN PERSON to my local polling place and stole my vote. They forged my signature and were able to cast a ballot in my name because we don't ask for VOTER ID. To make matters worse, the ONLY form of verification we apparently ask for in PA is your street address. So did I have to provide my street address? No! They provided it to me. All you have to say is, "yep, that's me." and boom, you get to vote. Why are we still letting this happen in this country!? Get out there and vote, and remember to vote red. The only people that are taking advantage of voter fraud in this way are those that do NOT want legitimate elections. Let's flood the country red and fix this problem once and for all! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 The Democrats might have stolen my one vote but if this message finds you and gets you to go out there and vote RED, we can turn my one vote into thousands!! God bless the USA 🇺🇸 Mid-term elections November 3rd, 2026 Macungie, Pennsylvania District 6 Polling Place: Church of the Good Shepherd

Hey scumbag, I asked for an example and said I am sure there are some. Will you please provide me with them? And show a little respect. I called every race correctly in 2024 while you guys were all reading the POLLZ and justifying voting for an 85 IQ retard for President.
I've been pointing to this guy as a prime example of a grifter who knows he will personally and financially benefit from lies and conspiracy theories about this year's election results if Dems win. Go look at his feed. He has been making pretty indefensible projections and claims about EV data for a few weeks. I argue he has no problem doing this because, if proven wrong, he will just start pretending his previous estimates prove elections were stolen. One thing not to ignore as this all starts spinning up once again: election denial is a business. It has its own economy both for grifters and for candidates. You have the influencers and "experts" who will make money as they travel around the country both from their social clicks, views, and subscriptions and, for some of them, for being hired to investigate or whatever. You also have the candidates. Wendy Rogers and Mark Finchem were basically pariahs in their own party until they started making promises in 2021 about recounts, audits, and not certifying the 2020 election. As a result, their small-dollar donations skyrocketed. And, on top of this and in part because of this economy, there is no such thing as starving these people for attention as they start pushing their lies. "Dont give them any oxygen, just ignore them." Not only will they have the White House on their side, but they also have their own information ecosystem. That is why I think confrontation and correction, even if you know it won't penetrate far within their own audiences, still matter.

Banana republic elections...why do we tolerate this?
🚨 VERY IMPORTANT: DISTURBING REPORT FROM SAN DIEGO BALLOT DROP-OFF LOCATION An eyewitness reports that the ballot drop box at the library on Voltaire Street was so full that voters were being turned away. According to the witness, ballots were on the ground as election workers slowly emptied the overflowing box, filling TWO bags. The witness says one worker then loaded the bags into an unmarked minivan. When she began recording, an election worker allegedly told her to DELETE THE VIDEO. She refused.

Country over party.
There’s a difference between turning against your party because of your oath, vs doing it because you weren’t invited to someone’s event. According to Haley’s own words, she was the latter. THAT is why people are furious.

Mail-in ballot fraud in VA.
Just voted in commie NoVa. Showed up, checked in, were immediately told a mail in ballot had already been submitted for my husband. I cannot overstate how important it is to show up today. This would not have been caught if we had not gone in person. We might not make much of a difference where we live, but like hell are we going to let them take what little voice we do have.

They are literally telling us that if Democrats are winning they will call the races early, but if Republicans are winning they won't call the races until tomorrow or later. That is literally what they are saying, without any exaggeration. They are telling this to us straight up, to our faces.
Democrats are heavily favored in public polling in the House and in several key Senate races. If those numbers prove accurate, it’s possible that NBC News could project control of both chambers on election night. But it’s more likely that determining the winners will take time. nbcnews.com/politics/2026-el…

For anyone curious why 90%+ of pilots are male despite the airlines and military pulling every trick in the book to get them to apply and qualify... It mostly comes down to a specific kind of spatial processing and memory that flying demands. It's best thought of as the mental skill of tracking where things are in 3D space while everything is moving. This includes you and your aircraft. It's not just remembering a map or rotating a static shape in your head, but continuously updating positions, directions, and movements in real time. This might mean keeping a clear mental picture of your plane’s attitude, where the runway is relative to you, how fast things are changing and coordinating your hands (and feet) to match all that while the outside world is moving and your instruments change. Military pilot selection has tested this kind of functional spatial tracking and coordination for decades and is probably the most extensive data-set available. On their tests, on average men outperformed women by more than a full standard deviation. That means the average man is scoring much higher than the vast majority of women. Typically you would have to be in the 90th percentile or higher of ability to qualify as an airline pilot. 95th or better for military; higher again for something like a fighter pilot. Given the standard deviation gap above, that means out of 100 men and 100 women applying for civilian piloting, about 10 men might pass but less than one woman per 100. You can’t fix this with diversity hiring, women-only shortlists, coaching / training or even lowering the bar. Most of the difference is attributable to hardwired sex and brain differences. For example, prenatal testosterone is much higher in male babies while still in the womb and permanently changes the connectivity in certain parts of the brain (parietal lobe, hippocampus) to make it better at 3D rotation, navigation, and tracking. Put simply, men evolved for long-range hunting and large-scale wayfinding, so much so that our brains are heavily specialised towards this even before we pop out into the world. It isn't a question of fairness, it's a question of specialisation; you cannot be good at everything. Men evolved to be better at this than women overall.

Happy Birthday to Pat Buchanan, a legend and the intellectual architect of the current patriotic populist movement: “This election is about more than who gets what. It is about who we are. It is about what we believe and what we stand for as Americans. There is a religious war going on in this country. It is a cultural war, as critical to the kind of nation we shall be as the Cold War itself. For this war is for the soul of America.”

Love or hate Trump, he, in every way, has moved the ball down the field. Need I remind you, in the last two years, he: 1. Fixed the border...in like 5 minutes (ho hum) 2. Reversed mass migration (we hit negative net migration for the first time in 50 years). 3. Signed the Laken Riley Act into law. 4. Made the 2017 tax cuts permanent, plus no tax on tips or overtime. 5. Had the balls to nab Maduro in the middle of the night (which aligned us with Venezuelan oil) 6. Shut down USAID (a left wing taxpayer-funded slush fund for woke causes worldwide) 7. Caused the largest drop of prescription drug prices in more than 60 years 8. Decapitated Iran's leadership (the war isn't over, but history will look back on this decision favorably. Stop being so short sighted) 9. Expelled DEI from the federal government. 10. Launched Trump Accounts (every kid now has one, with a $1,000 seed for babies born 2025–28). 11. Pushed China out of the Panama Canal 12. Locked in $11 trillion+ in announced investment commitments. 13. Q3 GDP hit 3.4%, beating forecasts (consumer spending up 3.8%, business investment up 12.7%). I could list so many more accomplishments. But as I said above, Trump has been cooking. Let's give him a rousing final act.

“WE’RE OUT OF TIME!” Those were the chilling final words spoken by the co-pilot of N722BD, a Bombardier Learjet 60, a moment before it crashed into the ground at over 600 MPH on Sunday, November 1, 2026, in Palm Beach County, Florida, killing all nine people aboard. What that pilot said was true in a far more profound sense than she may have realized. The minutes appointed for her life and the lives of the other eight people aboard that aircraft had finally counted down to zero. None of them boarded that plane expecting it to be the last day of their lives. They were on their way to the Bahamas. They had plans, hopes, and things they intended to do tomorrow. But tomorrow never came. The Bible warns us: "For man also does not know his time: Like fish taken in a cruel net, Like birds caught in a snare, So the sons of men are snared in an evil time, When it falls suddenly upon them." (Ecclesiastes 9:12) The same is true for every one of us. Somewhere a blood clot may be forming that will suddenly stop a heart or block an artery in the lungs. Cancer cells may be multiplying unnoticed in a vital organ. A drunk driver may be approaching the intersection we will pass through on our way home tonight. Or an ordinary flight may encounter extraordinary conditions from which there is no recovery. We don't know when or how our time will run out, but we do know that eventually it will. The question is not whether we will run out of time, but whether we will be ready when we do. And the only way to be ready is to have already closed with Jesus Christ by faith, trusting not in our own goodness or righteousness, but in His perfect righteousness and His atoning death for sinners. Jesus Himself promises: "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life." (John 6:47) Notice that He says has, not *might someday receive.* The believer already possesses eternal life in Christ. Death may come suddenly, without warning, but it cannot separate those who belong to Jesus Christ from their Savior. So don't put off the most important decision you will ever make, presuming that there will always be another day, another opportunity, another hour to repent and believe. One day you, too, will be out of time. Make sure you are not out of Christ.
