CNN is reporting that in Kentucky, some 21% of black voters have been disqualified from voting by the Republican-led state legislators.

Russian Enemies of Kremlin Meet to Plot Violent ‘Elimination’ of Putin The anti-Kremlin group, which includes several former Russian politicians, met in Poland and discussed staging a civil war, taking up arms, and killing Vladimir Putin. Anti-Russia activists and former Russian lawmakers opposed to Russian President Vladimir Putin have been gathering in Poland in recent days to discuss what removing Putin from power would look like nearly nine months into his war in Ukraine. Some of the scenarios the anti-Russia group discussed include Russians staging a civil war, taking up arms, and killing Putin, according to Euractiv. A guerrilla fight may be the only way to take down Putin, said opposition activist Viacheslav Maltsev. “The main goal is to physically eliminate Putin,” Maltsev said. “The fight against terrorists requires terrorists’ methods,” one politician present said, according to Gazeta Wyborcza. Ilya Ponomarev, a former member of the State Duma and the only Russian lawmaker to vote against annexing Crimea in 2014, arranged the gathering, and has said he is organizing an underground resistance movement in recent months. Some have expressed doubts about whether he actually leads a coalition of rebels, while others have questioned if he has become too radical and violent, as The Daily Beast reported. Allies of opposition leader Alexey Navalny did not participate in the gathering, according to Euractiv. Regardless of Ponomarev’s claims and tactics, though, the gathering in Poland this weekend is just the latest signal that those opposed to Putin are growing more vocal by the day. The chatter of a Putin ouster comes as he struggles to make gains in his war in Ukraine, with dissent for his war growing in Russia. Ukrainian forces have been gaining momentum since they began mounting counteroffensives against Russian forces in the south and northeast of Ukraine, forcing Russians to retreat. And in a push to replace those lost on the battlefield, Putin announced a “partial mobilization” for eligible Russian men—but instead of responding with support, hundreds of thousands of Russians responded with a massive exodus from the nation to flee conscription. Russian officials in St. Petersburg and Moscow have also called for Putin’s ouster in recent months. Elite circles in Russia are also starting to rally behind the idea that Putin needs to leave power, according to a close former aide of Putin’s, his speechwriter, Abbas Gallyamov. https://www.thedailybeast.com/russian-enemies-of-kremlin-meet-in-poland-to-plot-violent-elimination-of-vladimir-putin?ref=home

In all-out war, even if nuclear weapons were not used, conventional "bunker buster" bombs would mean that Kin Jong-Il would die alongside his whole family and retinue. If the strike did not kill him, he would be buried so deep that all in the bunker would never see daylight again.

Trump Insists On Pretending To Be President Again By Holding Rallies In Front Of Fake Air Force One He cannot help it. Trump believes that the more “rich” and “powerful” his entrance is, the more powerful he looks. Perhaps to his crowd, it is true, although it wouldn’t matter if it wasn’t. It is true for Trump, and that is what matters. Just like the President of the United States lands with the powerful and mighty symbolism of the United States’ Air Force One lands, Trump now has to do the best he can. It is literally called Trump Force One:

I need to do a mea culpa. I was zero for two this past weekend and horribly misjudged Rourke's resiliency, not to mention the quality of meds the Lions used on him. Rather than jinx the Bombers fir the pending game, I shall maintain a masterful silence.

Yes, he did. Maier flat-out choked and the game plan he was saddled with was bad, Very bad.

Kim Jung-Un knows, despite his bluster and strutting for attention, that he would be among the first casualties in an all-out war. His personality mirrors Trump almost perfectly and egotists value their own comfort and survival above all.

Hemingway meant this to be his personal opposition to war after seeing the senseless slaughter in WW1 and was pilloried by many for it, but the book and movie still stand the test of time very well.

Trump Uses Florida Rally to Gravely Threaten New York Judge The public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act, which is statistically probable but whose specifics cannot be predicted: The lone-wolf attack was apparently influenced by the rhetoric of stochastic terrorism. “Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?” Attributed to Henry II of England preceding the death of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in 1170. Now compare: “He’s a lunatic judge, radical left judge. He actually ran a newspaper against me (?? Tough to translate), he hates Trump so much, and he’s allowed to make a ruling against me? Study the name Arthur Engoron. He’s a lunatic. He started a process of property confiscation. It’s akin to Venezuela, Cuba, the Soviet Union. Just like in left-wing D.A. in Georgia, who is after me after the perfect phone call…" Why study the name? Why is the name important? Trump whines and plays the victim in every case in which a judge rules against him – which happens a lot, given that he often lacks much of a defense and contests absolutely everything rather than cooperating with the other side to make things go more smoothly in litigation. So we’re used to Trump complaining about the abuse he endures in lawsuits. Why “study the name”? Because, as with everything in Trump’s world, it is all transactional. If someone does something against Trump’s will or makes Trump’s life worse, that person is an enemy, a terrible person. (Melania does the same thing). Now Trump apparently wants revenge. Again, why study the name? If Trump doesn’t actually want anything violent to happen to the judge, it seems certain that Trump wants to make the judge pay for that ruling by putting his security at risk, causing worry about his safety and his family’s safety. This is Trump. He is increasingly panicking. We are moving toward indictments of some kind, either against Trump or the people closest to Trump, who may seek out a deal. Eventually, that lone wolf will rid Trump of this “meddlesome judge,” “meddlesome Senator,” or “District Attorney.” As the stakes increase, it’s all but inevitable. https://www.politicususa.com/2022/11/06/trump-uses-florida-rally-to-gravely-threaten-new-york-judge.html

Probably.

Halftime show taking a Page out of the book.

likely because the analgesia was wearing off. If so, Rourke will be shot up again at halftime and be ok for a while but when it wears off, he will be in a lot of discomfort.

Along that line....I am surprised that Maier hasn't taken off a couple of times to loosen up the pass coverage.

Those sacks on Rourke are gonna add up. They may bring in Tattoo to doctor him.

Good observation by Suitor about Rourke favouring that foot. More freezing at half-time coming up.

Its OK- we understand- you being from Saskatchewan and all.

To be fair- he has played well so far.

BIG screwup by Stamp d-back.

Stove would make a difference for sure- BC has lotsa good receivers.

Looks like Butler is in some difficulty.

Ooooh...that's gonna hurt the Tabbies.

AWWW...that is a nice article about Burnham.

If I cannot have Gregorian chants, I will settle for Slim Whitman.

Dumb penalty.
