□ [“CNN Stumps DSA Candidate:  Do You Still Want to Cancel Thanksgiving?"]

A Chinese chick running for Wisconsin governor.  She has tweeted that Thanksgiving should be cancelled forever and of course she won't give a straight yes or no to this question, so everybody knows she still wants it banned.  She also wants to ban police and hates white people and everything else you'd expect, no wonder she got so far in the Democrat primary for governor.

At the moment I'm not sure what I'll write about tonight because most of what I'm looking at are stories about this or that Democrat looking like a lunatic.  A candidate for congress in Hawaii just got into a fight on a beach and was knocked out in one punch.  There are cuts in the video so it's not shown who actually started the fight, only that this politician was agressive.  And had some odd-looking chest tattoos.  Not a candidate but an attorney celebrated by the Obama White House for opposing violence against women was just charged with beating up his girlfriend.  How do they know what a "woman" is?

At the moment it looks like Democrats are caving into DSA.  Maybe that's to be expected but they're worried about the mid-terms.  They need to get all the support they can and DSA is already beating them in "special" elections.  We just assume they're all on the same side anyway and they probably are but they are still different people so we don't know how much they support it and how much they fake it just to get power.

The left and the media are obsessed with the mid-terms, I don't recall seeing so much news on so many candidacies this early.  It's important to the parties, the 'last 100 days,' but normal people don't care.  But they're just going to get worse over the next three months.

□ [“Islamic Call to Prayer Now Blasts Five Times Per Day Across Minneapolis"]

Naturally every Democrat supported this, they've never objected to state-endorsed religion as long as it's their religion.  I'm not even bothering to look at how many of the city council is actually Muslim and how many are just leftists who are easy to puppet.  The result is the same, as far as the Muslim world is concerned, Minneapolis is now Muslim territory.  It's possible for it to be "occupied" by the infidel in the future but it can never be taken away, just like Jerusalem or Spain.

So what is there to do about this?  This is an advantage Islam has always had, you really can't get rid of them.  You can talk about it all you want but it would be impossible to search every home in every city in the country to find all of them to for repatriation.  Extermination might be slightly easier but it's not going to happen, any more than flapping your arms and flying to the moon.  So what then?

That's not even going to get into all the ways Democrats would find to help them out.  Muslims have always known that humiliating men is a good way to gain power, that way the women and children are urged to go in the opposite direction.  Sure explains how the left has worked for the last few decades.  Gotta admit, I can really see the argument for just hoping it hasn't fully happened before I'm dead.  I got no idea how to fight this on a wide-scale, much less beat it.

□ [“Zelensky Dismisses Ambassador to the U.S., Investigated by the Anti-Corruption Agencies"]

I know nobody is paying attention but this war really seems to be like the later seasons of a sit-com where they're still doing the same tired old jokes and throwing in wacky stuff that makes no sense.  Zelensky's still firing people in his government for corruption like it's only just been discovered.  There's still protests going on about the defense minister being fired.  But at least Russia's still moving forward and firing missiles, how exciting.  What else is on?

I do think something is going on with these government firings but it's so disconnected.  The protests for the defense minister are now going on Kiev.  I still don't think an appointed government official is someone who would get a lot of people out in the streets defending him so - assuming these reports are true and that's never a guarantee - they're being paid.  The defense minister would be the most likely suspect, or at least his backers.  But it's also said he was fired for planning to run for president.

Um, Ukraine doesn't have elections so that's not going to happen.  If you win the war, ok, that's something to run on but otherwise, the guy only got this job in January and is supposedly quite "young" for this job.  His supporters are also "young."  So that sounds more like activism than anything else and why haven't they been drafted?  This is what I mean about it making no senes.

As to the US ambassador, my immediate guess is that she had too many connections for the Trump administration to investigate on worldwide corruption.  Beyond that, Zelensky is conducting a purge so there's a lot of targets and she was one of them.  I still think this is probably why Russia didn't just turn the whole country into a parking lot years ago, they're letting whatever this is seep out and be exposed to the world.  And because we can't have nice things, this is why Trump has stayed involved all this time.

□ [“WNBA’s Pro-Trans Stance in Women’s Basketball Is a Loser "]

I've long thought that women's sports would be one important step to oppose the trans movement.  Those women have to work hard and focus on their goals to be as good as they are.  They're also going to realize that they are not able to compete with male athletes in the same sports.  So it is to their credit that they stay focused on their own abilities anyway.  So of course they are the main targets of the trans movement and its supporters.

I haven't paid much attention to what's going on in women's sports because, duh, it's women's sports.  But for a few weeks now, the WNBA has been having problems because some women aren't putting up with it any longer and their own team managers are opposing them.  They are actively supporting biological males against biological females, reducing all these decades about so-called "women's rights" to a sick joke.

Because sports actually require ability and objective rules, most of the people involved are able to see reality for what it is instead of pushing a "narrative."  I'm not sure how serious it is but there is talk about forming an all-trans team precisely to show the league what they're doing.  If they support the trans, they have to support this team but that means every other team is pathetic by comparison.  I get the impression these trans-supporters are totally fine with that.  And this is why the WNBA doesn't get any attention for sports.
