A big question this election is how many voters figure out Kamala and friend are avowed collectivists. Another big question is whether, among that group, their knowledge changes their votes. Still another big question is among the vote changers, which direction do their votes change. From James Rickards at dailyreckoning.com:
When a relatively unknown individual steps on the political stage as a candidate for high office, both sides race to “define” the candidate and stamp his image in the public mind.
Since the Democrats knew they would pick Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota for their VP candidate, they had time to pre-produce the public image.
He’s not particularly fit or good-looking. No problem! They pushed him as a folksy, down-to-earth Midwestern type who could relate to everyday Americans and understand their problems.
Maybe he’s a bit on the heavy side but that’s OK, so are millions of Americans, and it just shows he likes to chow down on popular meals like burgers, hot dogs, chili and whatever else you might find at a barbecue.
Well, it took the Republicans a few days to catch up, do the needed research and tell us about the real Tim Walz. It turns out he is one of the most far-left radical politicians in the history of America.
Some “Moderate”
During COVID, he enforced mask mandates, vaccine mandates and lockdown rules in more draconian ways and for far longer than any other governor. He even set up a “snitch” hotline so citizens could rat out their neighbors for not wearing masks or for going outside for a walk.
This is what we came to expect in communist countries during the Cold War; and under Walz, Minnesota was no different.
He also discarded the traditional Minnesota state flag and replaced it with a new star-on-blue motif that closely resembles the national flag of Somalia (Somalis are a large part of the population of Minnesota, thanks to Obama’s policy of concentrating immigrant nationalities in targeted areas to gain political power. This is how we ended up with politicians like the Mogadishu-born Ilhan Omar.)
The purpose of socialism is communism.

“Many expected that she’d select Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania. After all, Pennsylvania is a key swing state that could help deliver the election to the Democrats. Walz is from Minnesota, which is already a blue state”
There was an oppo article released on Shapiro, a day or two before Walz was announced as the VP pick, and it made me think as soon as I read it that there was a lot more to this story. It concerned the death of a woman in the Philadelphia area which was originally (and obviously) ruled a homicide, but was later converted into a suicide which appears to have been upheld by Shapiro. The woman – Ellen Greenberg – had been stabbed or cut approx 20 times, and this immediately conflicted with common sense, as well as my own personal experience as a cop. Women, in my experience, rarely kill themselves in a way that causes disfigurement. I recall only one such case, and she took a deliberate dive head-first off of a bridge trestle onto an underpass, which cracked open the skull. I had her brain matter on my pants and shoes while directing traffic around her. Women use drugs, and OD, they don’t have the pain tolerance to stab themselves dozens of times.
Secondly, I had involvement in another case in which a woman was sexually assaulted at night, and it turned out that the master keys to these units were copied multiple times, despite the (not very high tech) ‘do not copy’ inscriptions on the keys. These are passed around to maintenance personnel, and to their family members once they are no longer employed, and allow silent access into these units. In other cases, you are going to have moneyed property owners who don’t bother to change locks on the doors when they rent out an apartment, or maintenance personnel who fail to do so, and the previous tenants or their friends ‘come back’. I have also encountered similar crimes where the patio/balcony door is accessed by climbing the brickwork, and these doors are easy to pop open without any apparent damage. The only basis for suicide I noted was the claim that Mrs Greenberg was in therapy, and that the apartment she was in was locked from the inside.
In any event, Shapiro is competent enough to graduate law school, and he had the assistance of LE personnel who have at least as much experience as I do, so everything that is occurring to me would be within their own personal experience as well. It is basically inconceivable to me that you would remotely consider classifying this woman’s clear murder as a suicide, unless you are either grossly incompetent or you are deliberately protecting some sort of misconduct. I cant find much information online about this case (is there a balcony door for instance) and it is an old case now, however it does interest me who / what company owned that property, who they employed, how they managed key access at that time, can the door be locked on exit behind you without a key, etc.. There would be ample damages to a management agency who was negligent (or worse) so all of this needs to be considered. I have to think that, given Shapiro’s duty to provide vetting information, this case could easily be the actual basis that he could not be considered for this position, because I would stake my own personal life experiences on it that this was a deliberate homicide.
