They Already Told Us ...
They have taken hold of the election system and they will never let it go. They will force judges into the Supreme Court. They will run one impeachment & false prosecution after another. They will bankrupt the country, open the border & it is open season on women & girls. All those acting like this is just another election are completely blind. They will persecute & torment law enforcement, especially ICE agents and people will be so afraid of them, they will do nothing for the next two years, if Trump lasts that long. If they can impeach him & Vance & put the Speaker of the House in the White House, Hakeem Jeffries will be running the country. And they will go after Trump & his followers with a vengeance. The Jan 6 prosecutions will look like a picnic. They already have lawsuits ready & lists to target. People will be afraid & start to self-censor. How do I know this? They already told us. And we have seen part of this movie before.

I wrote last week that rather than living in “late capitalism,” we were actually living in “late democracy.” Late capitalism is a communist fantasy created over a century ago. Late democracy is very real.
Democracy — even in a democratic republic like ours, rather than pure democracy — is contingent. When you try it in the less developed parts of the world, you typically get “one man, one vote, one time.” And by less developed I don’t mean less economically developed — though that generally applies too — as less morally and civically developed. But now that kind of “less developed” describes us too. . . .
We used to say “politics ain’t beanbag,” but there were limits, on both behavior and rhetoric. The opposition was a political movement to be defeated, not an evil to be extirpated. The stakes in elections may have been high, but they weren’t existential. Nobody feared death or prison just for losing an election.
That sort of thing was for banana republics, like Brazil.
Now we have prominent Democrats talking about throwing their opponents in jail, seizing Elon Musk’s companies — after throwing him in jail for, I dunno, the crime of being in opposition I guess — and enacting various changes, like packing the Supreme Court, adding Puerto Rico and DC as states, and opening the borders to ensure that no election can remove them from power again.
That’s “late democracy.” Very late.
GAS PRICES AND REPUBLICAN DEFEAT
It is pretty firmly established that gas prices drove votes.
Note that in the below graph, the price of gas is inverted so that high prices are represented by the line going down and low prices are shown by the line going up.
It is done this way to show the very close alignment with Trump's approval rate. As the price of gas goes up, Trump's approval goes down.

🇺🇸 Shots fired! Abdul El-Sayed just said, "JD, habibi, there is this delicious irony in the fact that you're constitutionally obligated to swear me in in January," in his projected victory speech. Wouldn't be shocked if these guys literally end up coming to blows. 🤣 Writer: Mhedi https://t.co/I4yhjlgsk1

Abdul El-Sayed to Trump: Donald, look, I know you struggled with my name. So after JD swears me in in January, you can just go on and call me Senator. https://t.co/47FD4QMYUa

Philadelphia anti-Israel groups to stage ‘boycott ride’ past Jewish-owned restaurants on eve of Kristallnacht anniversary
Denaturalize and deport.

Philadelphia anti-Israel groups are planning a bicycle ride targeting Jewish-owned businesses on the eve of the anniversary of Kristallnacht, the 1938 Nazi-orchestrated pogrom against Jews in Germany and Austria.
The “Boycott Ride,” organized by Philly Bike On Your Left in collaboration with Philly Writers Against the War on Gaza, Boycott CookNSolo and Philly Solidarity Calendar, is scheduled for Nov. 8 at 11:30 a.m. at Rittenhouse Square in the heart of Center City. A flier promoting the event states, “No business for Zionists,” adding, “These Zionist establishments must go.”
The flier names several Philadelphia businesses, including Dizengoff, a modern Israeli restaurant; Huda, a sandwich shop; Schlesinger’s Restaurant and Delicatessen, a Jewish deli; Mac Mart, a macaroni-and-cheese kiosk; K’Far Cafe, an Israeli cafe; and Goldie, a kosher falafel shop.
“Ride around Rittenhouse with us as we show these zio business owners that we see them for the disgusting humans they are,” organizers wrote.
The Anti-Defamation League of Philadelphia, American Jewish Committee of Philadelphia/Southern New Jersey, the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia and StandWithUs released a joint statement on Monday calling the boycott ride “Jew-hatred, plain and simple.”
“The ride falls on the eve of the anniversary of Kristallnacht, Nov. 9-10, 1938, when Nazi-organized mobs destroyed thousands of Jewish businesses, homes and synagogues in Germany and Austria, while thousands of Jews were beaten, assaulted and sent to concentration camps,” the groups stated.
“The public targeting of Jewish businesses should alarm every person of conscience,” they stated. “No business should be targeted because of the identity, heritage or perceived political beliefs of its owners.”

All The Smartest Ho's Wear Chokers
A former Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) scientist won a legal victory this week after losing his position following sexual misconduct allegations made by a female colleague.
Dr. David Sabatini, a former MIT biology professor and prominent biomedical researcher, was awarded $6 million in damages Friday after a jury found that his former colleague, Dr. Kristin Knouse, had defamed him.
At the time of the allegations, Sabatini had led a research lab at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for approximately 24 years.
His work focused on cell biology and its connections to neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, aging and cancer.
In 2021, Sabatini lost his position at Whitehead following an internal investigation into allegations made by Dr. Kristin Knouse, a younger colleague who worked at the institute.
The pair met in 2012 and began a sexual relationship in 2018, which ended the following year, according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital. Knouse later alleged the relationship was coerced.
Read the whole thing. As Richard Fernandez says, “Lysenkoism is alive and well and its new name is Wokism. The immense prestige of the Ivy League, Oxbridge and les grand ecoles attract not only the tall trees, but growing in its shadow, also the malignant creepers of envy, deceit and greed.”
