California has 10 days (post election) to count and report the vote results. This is more than enough time to produce ANY election results that the powers-that-be want.
There is enough time to: (1) tabulate the "REAL" vote results, (2) decide what election results they "WANT" their different candidates to show, (3) they need to manufacture (utilizing physical printing presses or production quality copiers) the "short-fall" number of physical ballots required to match the results decided in (2 above), (4) they need database operators to load the new manufactured results into a number of different databases (databases at the local voting district "level", county "level", city "level", state "level", etc., (5) they they are legally required to "certify" the total physical ballots (the "real citizen votes" + "manufactured votes") + "the total database tabulated votes" to PRODUCE = A TRUE CONSISTENT VOTE TOTAL. This "true consistent vote total" is then released to the public, to election systems (state & federal), U.S. media, etc.
Then magic happens - "glitches" and "shock": (6) the physical shipment of ALL printed ballots from local voting districts, county, city, state, etc, to "certified secure voting storage facilities" suffers from "glitches". Election Officials are "SHOCKED" that some shipments do NOT ARRIVE at these certified secure storage facilities! Also, some human operators in the "secure certified storage facilities" misplace, loose, or "accidentally throw-away" boxes full of ballots.
In addition, the electronic transmission of data from election databases to other election databases astonishingly suffers from "technology glitches". The database data is now corrupted so you JUST HAVE TO TRUST THAT THE-POWERS-THAT-BE PRODUCED A "TRUE CONSISTENT VOTE TOTAL". State officials will schedule OVER THE NEXT 2 YEARS some public hearings and meetings about vote counting issues within their state....
There is another way. If someone is going to "ram this through" then negotiate for $5 million per year per 500-kV line, with $10 million paid to you UP-FRONT! There are people out there that can arrive at a value that you can extract from Georgia Power & Light for the use (not ownership) of your property.
In addition, (1) you want you and your families health monitored annually with Georgia Power paying the bill for this, and (2) you want your cattle's health evaluated by a veterinarian every year at Georgia Powers expense. If you or your family's health is negatively impacted or if the veterinarian determines that the health of your cattle has been impacted, then you need an exit clause of this contract AND/OR a large settlement.
When Congress people hear about an SEC investigation, they think you are referring to the Southeastern Conference (for colleges) and they respond that they have not violated SEC laws.
When Congress people are told SEC means U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, they REALLY know that these laws do not apply to them... They are safe from this SEC!
The general concept is "FINANCIALIZE EVERYTHING" or "MONETIZE EVERYTHING". Turn ALL HUMAN ACTIVITIES in LIFE into an Earnings Per Share (EPS), Return on Investment (ROI), Return on Assets (ROA), etc. calculation!
Thank you Wall Street Apes for this printer & printing information. HP and other printer/ink businesses can/do charge up to $100 (including tax) for black & colored water!
I am surprised the global drug cartels have not entered the printer & ink business! Think about it, printer & ink is LEGAL, you sell colored water, you sell this colored water in tiny cartridges, and these cartridges cost $50 to $100! The gross profit margins for this business are ridiculous! Being in the printer/ink business is more profitable than selling cocaine or crack on the streets!
Now we have Big INK (Printer INK) joining Big Pharma, Big NGO's, Big Food, etc.
BIG AUTO is NOW in the "FINANCIALIZE EVERYTHING" business. We are seeing a number of monthly recurring charges in new automobiles! Below is BIG AUTO!!!!!
From AI: Common Recurring Monthly Fees on New Vehicles Remote Services: (1) Subscriptions for remote start, lock/unlock, and climate control via smartphone apps. (2) Advanced Driver Assistance: Monthly fees for hands-free highway driving systems or traffic jam assistance. (3) Streaming & Wi-Fi: Recurring charges for 4G/5G in-car Wi-Fi hotspots and data streaming services. (4) Performance & Comfort Upgrades: Pay-to-unlock features like faster acceleration or heated seats/steering wheels. (5) Security & Safety: Stolen vehicle location services and, in some cases, remote panic buttons.
From AI: BIG AUTO Key Considerations (6) Free Trial Periods: Many services are free for a trial period (e.g., 1–3 years) before converting to a monthly fee. (7) Cost Accumulation: These subscriptions can add up, potentially costing thousands over the life of the vehicle. (8) Subscription Models: Some companies now offer "vehicle subscriptions," which are all-inclusive monthly payments covering the car, insurance, maintenance, and taxes.
From AI: "It is highly recommended to ask dealers for a list of features that require a subscription after any complimentary period expires.
- Did she really want to start an open public speculation about this?
Or 2. Was she told to start that discussion to get it out of the way because the internal polls are so bad for the dem's that releasing this news may even help them?
Or 3. Was she told to start this discussion so that ANY FUTURE criticism about/against the dem's will be labled race bias and homophobic?
America First.
Let me get this right, the dem's will not fund Dept of Homeland Security. They will also not fund ICE, and U.S. Secrete Service, etc. They will not even support the U.S. in its mission to defend itself in our homeland.
Furthermore, the U.S. sends billions of dollars to support Israel, we send billions in military support (across many types of military goods & services).
Now, we are being asked for more money?!??
It is simple: America FIRST. We will worry about others at a later date...
Every time I believe that I have reached the bottom of what I thought was possible in Washington, I am proven VERY WRONG. I am very grateful (and surprised) that Peter Girnus wrote this article. The facts in this document proves that there is no way to reform Washington, it needs to be closed. A complete reboot of the system with ALL new people is required, nothing else will work.
Remember, Washington is one of the largest crime scenes in the history of the world! Furthermore, this crime scene has been active for DECADES (40 years??)!
Elon Musk estimated that as much as 100% of all the outstanding debt of the U.S. was created by government waste, fraud, and theft. He was able to glimpse into the Washington crime scene by participating through the DOGE exercise AND the accounting audit activity during the government shutdown in the fall of 2025. If his estimate ("guess") is correct, then approximately the entire $38 TRILLION of outstanding U.S. debt is due to fraud!
Catherine Austin Fitts is another person that has participated in audit activities in Washington. She was the Federal Housing Commissioner and U.S. Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under President George H.W. Bush. She estimates that the fraud and theft of taxpayer money totals $20 Trillion to $25 Trillion dollars!
This situation gets more infuriating because the people who stole this money are charging U.S. tax payers interest on the money STOLEN FROM US! The interest expense on this fraud in JUST 2026 will be >$1 Trillion! Think about it: Someone steals your car then charges you for the the full price of the car, the maintenance, and gas for that car!
Solution: If ALL of the U.S. outstanding debt is due to theft, then should it be written off as an uncollectible expense? The rules of accounting state that when an expense becomes uncollectible, then it should be recorded as a loss and written off.
Being a great bartender, Occasional Cortex may have confused "Tie One On" with Taiwan.
When AOC was attending the Munich Security Conference in Feb 2026, she was asked about whether or the U.S. should commit troops to defending Taiwan.
This is her literal response from the Economic Times YouTube video:
The transcript for the first 50 seconds of the interview is as follows: (0:00-0:03): "Would and should the US actually commit US troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move?" (0:08-0:22): "Um, you know, I think that uh this is such a uh you know, I I think that this is a um this is of course a uh" (0:23-0:26): "to to all of you and Congressman, I'll start with you. Would and should the US actually commit US troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move?"
The interviewer continues:
(0:26-0:30): "Would and should the US actually commit US troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move?"
(0:33-0:50): "Um, you know, I think that uh this is such a uh you know, I I think that this is a um this is of course a a very long-standing um"

According to AI: "Taxpayers have funded over $17 million in settlements for 268 cases of misconduct on Capitol Hill—including sexual harassment and discrimination—between 1997 and 2017. These payments, often called a "slush fund," were made through the Office of Compliance, and while some cases involve members of Congress directly, others involve their offices, making exact, publicly disclosed totals for member-committed crimes difficult to verify."
- As of 2026, What amount of money was paid for ALL CASES cases of misconduct on Capital Hill from 2018 to 2026 and how many cases were recorded?
- What amount of money and how many cases were paid to cover sexual issues cases from Rep. Eric Swalwell?
- FULL DISCLOSURE from 1997 - 2026: LIST the name of the CONGRESS PERSON and the amount of MONEY PAID for EVERY CASE from 1997 - 2026!
- If a Congress person is guilty of sexual harassment or other misconduct and money is paid to a victim, DOES the CONGRESS PERSON collect ANY PENSION OR RETIREMENT BENEFITS?? IF YES, WHY?????
I need one sentence to answer this question: "I identify as the U.S. tax exempt income race of Red 1/3, White 1/3, and Blue 1/3."
Since any painter can tell you that the color of "skin tone" and the color white are very different, I can therefore ignore any discussion about Mamdani and his personal income taxes based on skin tone (definition below).
Mamdani needed 2 paragraphs to answer this question.
Paragraph 1: Mamdani (according to AI) "identifies as an American who was born in Africa." "He identified as both "Asian" and "Black or African American" on a 2009 college application, he stated this was to reflect his complex Ugandan-Indian heritage, not because he considers himself Black."
Paragraph 2: "In 2025, reports revealed he checked "Black or African American" on a 2009 Columbia University application, which he described as a way to "capture the fullness" of his background."
AI Overview - Skin Tone
Skin tones are determined by the amount of melanin (eumelanin and pheomelanin) in the skin, acting as protection against UV radiation. They are typically categorized by depth (fair to deep) and undertone (warm, cool, or neutral). Genetic variation causes diverse tones, with higher melanin in warmer climates.
