“LATINX” IS A COLONIALIST LINGUISTIC CONSTRUCT: Department of Ed grant $3 million of taxpayer dollars to California university for ‘Latinx’ program.
WOULD HE BE SAYING THIS NOW IF HE EXPECTED KAMALA TO WIN? Mark Cuban says he hasn’t given Harris ‘a penny.’
I’D SAY HE’S DRIVING THEM CRAZY, BUT THEY WERE ALREADY CLOSE ENOUGH TO WALK: As Trump Peaks Democrats Go Insane.
DON’T FORGET THEM, JUST BECAUSE THE PRESS HAS LARGELY LOST INTEREST: Asheville 1 month after Helene faces long recovery.
UM:
NEW: Democrat groups release an ad of a young man m*sturbating in an effort to get people to vote for Kamala Harris.
The Democratic Party: The party of abortion and p*rn addicts.
Progress Action Fund and Defend the Vote have released a $2.5 million ad campaign with the… pic.twitter.com/r8hFYYMnJc

Allegedly this is real. Anyone seen it? The Harris campaign is looking more and more like an electoral version of The Producers.

OPEN THREAD: Ring out the weekend.
FASTER, PLEASE: Breakthrough coming? Iceland could get solar power from space in 2030.
I remember talking about space solar power to people in the eighties and nineties to responses that ranged from skeptical to disdainful. Likewise space tourism. But now that stuff is becoming real.
HAHA: Michelle Obama Scolds Michigan: It’s Not Funny. “To anyone out there thinking about sitting out this election or voting for Donald Trump or a third party candidate in protest because you’re fed up, let me warn you, your rage does not exist in a vacuum… To the women listening, we have every right to demand that the men in our lives do better by us. We have to use our voices to make these choices clear to the men that we love. Our lives are worth more than their anger and disappointment.”
That’s right. The old pitch was to be “man enough to vote for a woman.” The new pitch is “never mind, just be henpecked enough to vote for a woman when your wife or girlfriend demands it, rather than risk her displeasure. Your feelings and desires don’t matter, you’re only men and we Democrats basically hate you anyway. But now we need your vote.”
That should sell.

21ST CENTURY RELATIONSHIPS: I’m a self-made millionaire at 20 — but my X-rated career has ruined my dating life. She does seem to cast the problem as coming from her earning more than boyfriends, which may be part of it, but probably isn’t all of it.
“However, the star, who creates niche, X-rated content featuring her beloved Ford Falcon, said she’s proud of the financial stability she’s been able to create for herself, and won’t make herself smaller for a man’s comfort.”

FOREBODINGS:
I think there's a great disquiet in the world today. People are excited but afraid and rightly so, for no one can say what these towering clouds mean. But we'll find out.

THEY TOLD US THE SCIENCE WAS SETTLED, AND THEN: Shaken Baby Syndrome Has Been Discredited. Why Is Robert Roberson Still on Death Row?
HE DOESN’T SOUND THAT WELL TO ME: ‘Well-man’ thrown from castle identified from 800-year-old Norse saga. “A passage in the Norse “Sverris Saga,” the 800-year-old story of King Sverre Sigurdsson, describes a military raid that occurred in AD 1197, during which a body was thrown into a well at Sverresborg Castle, outside Trondheim in central Norway, likely as an attempt to poison the main water source for the local inhabitants.”
FOLLOW THE “SCIENCE:” Discrimination may cause gut inflammation, digestive woes, study says.
ELECTION STRATEGY STEP ONE: DITCH ISRAEL TO COURT MUSLIM VOTERS IN MICHIGAN. STEP TWO, ER . . . Trump Endorsed by Arab Americans While Campaigning in Michigan. “If you’re in the Harris camp, that’s gotta hurt. Polls show they can’t afford to lose these voters but it looks like it’s too late to turn things around. Some will vote for Stein, some will stay home and there really are some who are moving toward Trump.”
ANN ALTHOUSE: David French writes about courage, Donald Trump demonstrates it. “I am reminded of Elon Musk’s ‘There’s no truer test than courage under fire.'”
EVERYTHING IS GOING SWIMMINGLY: White House Report Card: Biden’s checked out, Harris in panic.
POST-COVID, THOSE WHITE COATS AND STETHOSCOPES NO LONGER STAND FOR TRUSTWORTHINESS TO MANY VOTERS:
This is the Kamala campaign in a nutshell.
She brought up all these doctors to say how much they love and support abortion.
Someone in the crowd had a medical emergency and called for medics.
Not one of the abortion doctors helped them.
Spot on.
