Election Shennigians and Fallout
- Thread starter GURPS
- Start date
Ruh roh! In this morning’s first “great moments in walking it back” story, CNN ran an article yesterday headlined, “Pennsylvania Democratic official apologizes for comments about ignoring election laws.” She must have realized it’s not the pre-2020 world anymore.
I am sure you will recall Bucks County, Pennsylvania’s arrogant, hyphenated Democrat Commissioner Diane Ellis-Marseglia who, while counting illegal votes that the state’s Supreme Court forbade be counted, infamously sneered “People violate laws any time they want.” To drive the stake deeper into her own shriveled heart, she pompously added, for absolute clarity, as though she were the center of the universe, “For me, if I violate this law, it’s because I want a court to pay attention to it.” Then, to clamp shut her own coffin lid, she snidely tossed in for good measure, “precedent by a court doesn’t matter anymore in this country.”
The feckless county commissioner was practically daring Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court to do something about it.
Ms. Ellis-Marseglia rapidly became a woman on a deserted political island. On Monday, following national fury, Democrat Governor Josh Shapiro distanced himself from the debacle saying, “to be clear: any insinuation that our laws can be ignored or do not matter is irresponsible and does damage to faith in our electoral process.” The same day, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ordered all counties (meaning Bucks County) to comply with its previous rulings over undated ballots. Some of the justices blasted Bucks officials for “upending the rule of law.”
In Sunday’s C&C, I observed that Ms. Ellis-Marseglia had placed herself in the crosshairs of potential criminal prosecution as an insurrectionist or worse, an election interferer. There’s no evidence she’s yet been charged but apparently, for some reason, Ms. Ellis-Marseglia has experienced a significant heart change.
At yesterday’s board meeting, Ellis-Marseglia faced a fiery crowd and international news coverage. She began by apologizing. She first apologized that people misunderstood her comment and took it out of context. When that non-apology landed with a thud, Ellis-Marseglia groveled a little further, seeking empathy and blaming her controversial comments on her passion for public service. “The passion in my heart got the best of me, and I apologize again for that," she said.

The day before yesterday, I was complaining about going to BJ's and purchasing 3 items for $116.00 That was 2 cases of Glucerna, which is my breakfast - the brand varies, but BJs no longer carries Atkins - nor does Atkins appear to produce the cases - and 1 case of k-cup Dunkin' Donuts coffee. On the upside, I did pay $3.02 a gallon for regular unleaded; unlike the $3.39 a gallon I paid at WAWA in Prince Fred last week.
Yesterday, I was complaining that the lame duck (in more ways that one) President appointed just started WWIII, and now I'm going to have to try to find a wood and metal school desk to do the duck-and-cover under like we did in the '60s and '70s.
There is a movement (not that kind of movement) in Congress to 25th Biteme, but that's a lot of gas being expelled.
I have a better idea, but you can't say stuff like that out loud, even in today's day and age.
Besides, starting with Obama (if not earlier), they've turned the military into a bunch of "yes" .... persons and soy boys - by design - who would never dream of doing what they should be doing.

Election Be Damned, Google’s Anti-Trump Bias Is Alive And Well
Donald Trump may have overwhelmingly won reelection, but according to Google’s content police, saying anything nice about him is “demonstrably false” and a threat to the “democratic process.”
Do you think we’re exaggerating?
We received notice the other day that our article “Unburdened By What Has Been, Trump Is Poised To Deliver Bigly” contained, according to Google, “unreliable and harmful claims.”
What falls into this category? Content that:
- makes claims that are demonstrably false and could significantly undermine participation or trust in an electoral or democratic process.
- promotes harmful health claims, or relates to a current, major health crisis and contradicts authoritative scientific consensus.
- contradicts authoritative scientific consensus on climate change.
Google didn’t, and never does, provide any specific information on what exactly violated these standards or what a “fix” would entail. But it did strip its ads from that page, costing us money.
[clip]
No. The only reason Google blocked its ads from appearing on that article is because of anti-Trump political bias. (Google is still banning its ads from appearing on a nearly four-year-old editorial – “Trump’s Top-10 Triumphs: A Last Look At A Remarkable Presidency” – calling that one “dangerous and derogatory.”)
The leftist geeks who code whatever algorithm Google uses to sniff out “objectionable” content have programmed it to deem almost any conservative viewpoint as “unreliable and harmful” or “dangerous and derogatory.”
That’s why any time we challenge climate hysteria with facts, or dispute COVID dogma with facts, or talk about election fraud with facts, or criticize electric vehicles with facts, or bring facts to bear on any other item in the woke left’s canon, Google slaps one of those labels on it and strips its ads from those pages.
All in the name of protecting the “democratic process.”
This isn’t about shielding readers from obscene or violent content. It’s not about ensuring that companies won’t have their ads appear next to horrible stuff. It’s about starving conservative viewpoints of money. It’s about censorship by a monopolist, pure and simple.
That’s why we keep calling it out.
