The hotly anticipated public reappearance of John F Kennedy Jr (alongside 104-year old former President John F Kennedy Sr and wife Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, according to some sources) failed to materialize for Dallas, Texas-area QAnon fans Tuesday, per video by Protean Magazine publisher Steve Monacelli, taken at Dealey Plaza, the site of John Sr’s death 58 years ago this month. The first part of the clip was taken shortly before the appointed time of the reappearance 12:29 CST (the exact moment of the assassination on November 22nd, 1963) and shortly afterward. No word yet if Abraham Zapruder Jr, Umbrella Lady Jr, or Rafael Cruz Sr were also present on Tuesday, or if Jim Garrison Jr will be scrutinizing every single frame of video taken to see if a man resembling John F Kennedy Jr was lurking anonymously among the crowd.

Why the supposed reappearance was scheduled for November 2nd and not the anniversary of the shooting, November 22nd, or why JFK Jr would reappear at the site of his father’s death and not, say Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts where he actually died doesn’t make a lot of sense, but then again this is QAnon we’re talking about here, so it’s silly to try to make sense of their batfuckery.

Fox News: “New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed legislation Tuesday barring the display of symbols of hate on all public property and equipment after a fire truck decorated with a Confederate flag sparked outrage last year. The bill expands on a law passed by Hochul’s predecessor, disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, that prohibits the display of hate symbols on state-owned property and at state-sponsored events. The new legislation adds towns, cities, villages, fire districts, volunteer fire companies and police departments to the list of institutions subject to the law.”

“Isn’t it amazing that Terry McAuliffe ends his entire campaign with the head of the teachers unions [sic],” Republican Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton says.  “Randi Weingarten is a joke.  Randi Weingarten does not even have children of her own.  What the hell does she know about raising and teaching kids?”

Cotton, who has never taught in a classroom or studied education practices, dismisses the experience of Weingarten, an out lesbian who was a public high school teacher in Brooklyn, New York before getting her law degree and raising through the ranks to become the head of the American Federation of Teachers.

“Campaign Legal Center Action (CLCA) filed suit on behalf of Giffords against the National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund, the NRA Institute for Legislative Action, Matt Rosendale for Montana and Josh Hawley for Senate, alleging illegal coordination through the use of a common vendor between the NRA affiliates and seven candidates for federal office, including [Montana Congressman] Matt Rosendale and Josh Hawley in 2018. CLCA is representing Giffords in this suit to hold the NRA accountable for long-running violations of the laws designed to limit money’s influence on politics” says the intro to the complaint on the CLCA’s website.

“#LetsGoBranden is trending right now because Twitter is censoring the real one” says Twitter user “Jewish Deplorable” under the hashtag “#LetsGoBranden” in the trending items section of the platform. We say “allegedly” censoring as whether or not this is actually the case is unknown and probably unknowable barring any sort of public confirmation from Twitter that they throttled it. We also say they “allegedly” switched because MAGA trolls are notoriously fucking awful at spelling and their failures go beyond mere typos so they could just be spelling it incorrectly.

That said, if the fanboys are correct, it’ll be fun to see what the endgame is after #LetsGoBranden is throttled. Watching them jump from #LetsGoBrendon to #LetsGoBrendan to #LetsGoBrenden, #LetsGoBrennan, then #LetsGoBrennon, #LetsGoBrennen, then maybe #LetsGoBrenda, or #LetsGoBrett, #LetsGoBrianna, #LetsGoBryson, and maybe finally #LetsGoBernie before they realize the whole thing was fucking stupid and move on to whatever’s next in their meme world.

“A California man who planned the bombing of a political rally in Long Beach, California, in 2019 was sentenced yesterday to 25 years in federal prison. On Aug. 11, Mark Steven Domingo, 28, of Reseda, was found guilty of one count of providing material support to terrorists and one count of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction at the conclusion of a five-day jury trial.”

“Domingo has been in federal custody since April 2019. According to court documents and the evidence presented at trial, the investigation into Domingo was prompted by Domingo’s online posts and conversations in an online forum, in which he expressed support for violence, specifically a desire to seek violent retribution for attacks against Muslims, and a willingness to become a martyr. After considering various attacks – including targeting Jewish people, churches and police officers – Domingo decided to bomb a rally scheduled to take place in Long Beach in April 2019” says a Justice Department press release which neglects to mention the nature of the rally that Domingo intended to attack – that it was a Pro-Trump White Supremacist group’s gathering.

Associated Press:  “The Biden administration is rolling out a new initiative aimed at reducing suicides by gun and combating the significant increases in suicides by members of the military and veterans.  The White House is announcing the new plan on Tuesday, which officials say is an unprecedented focus by the federal government on reducing the risk of suicide through awareness and training campaigns and new regulations to increase the availability of gun storage products.

“The plan calls for federal agencies, including the Defense Department, Homeland Security, the Justice Department, Health and Human Services, Veterans Affairs and the Department of Transportation’s emergency medical services office to create public awareness campaigns to encourage safer storage of guns and training for counselors, crisis responders and others.  The effort also includes the Justice Department finalizing a rule that was first proposed in 2016 and would require stores that sell firearms to also offer secure gun storage and safety devices, the White House said.

“In 2019, firearms were the most common method used in suicide deaths in the United States, accounting for nearly 24,000 deaths, or a little over half of all suicide deaths, according to federal health statistics. Experts say many people who take their lives using guns typically have quick access to firearms and have tended to be gun owners or their family members.  As part of the plan, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives will distribute a guide for firearms dealers that spells out both safety steps that are required under the law and additional steps the federal government recommends. The guide will also detail the Justice Department’s focus on prosecuting gun crimes and violations of federal firearms laws.”

“Republican Rep. Larry Bucshon has bought up to $15,000 in the SPAC that is slated to take public former President Donald Trump’s planned social media platform. The Indiana congressman purchased a stake in Digital World Acquisition Corp., or DWAC, on Oct. 25, according to a public disclosure released on Monday. The investment is worth at least $1,001 but no more than $15,000. Bucshon’s investment is the second disclosed DWAC purchase from a member of Congress. CNBC reported last week that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has invested up to $50,000 in the SPAC. It also appears to be the first stock transaction disclosed by Bucshon since 2013, according to Quiver Quantitative, an alternative data firm that tracks Congressmen’s trading activities. Bucshon, who worked as a physician and surgeon, has served in Congress since 2011. He is a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee” – CNBC.

“Police sought a felony child abuse charge against a man who now serves as a Wisconsin legislator after he was accused of leaving 4-inch bruises on his child and told officers the Bible commanded him to strike his children as punishment, according to newly released records. The Brown County District Attorney’s Office never charged the lawmaker, Shae Sortwell, and did not explain its decision until eight years later in response to a Green Bay Press-Gazette inquiry.”

“The police investigation took place in January 2013, before Sortwell was elected to the state Assembly, but by then he was active in state and national politics and had served on the Green Bay City Council. Police were made aware of the alleged abuse after a relative discovered the five bruises while giving the child a bath. The relative took the child to a hospital in Two Rivers, according to 35 pages of documents obtained by the Press-Gazette through an open records request with the Green Bay Police Department” the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

You probably already correctly guessed it but here’s confirmation of what kind of Republican this asshole is in a December 2020 tweet: “We are dangerously close to losing our nation. Consider the collusion by multiple tech companies to shut off conservative speech. Consider how these same companies stepped up their censorship within days of Biden being confirmed the winner. Maybe you’d argue that these are private companies, but these actions seem to show us being dangerously close to an oligarchy Consider that it is still illegal to meet in churches in some states and parts of states. Consider that we’ve accepted that you do not control your body but rather it is owned by society for the benefit of society” and it goes on and on and on.

NBC News:  “Younger, Southern, rural and white.  Those are increasingly the kinds of people who are dying of Covid-19, as the demographics of those hit hardest by the coronavirus have shifted since the pandemic first hit the United States. The country’s most recent, devastating Covid wave, fueled by the highly contagious delta variant, showed the strength of the virus even in the face of mounting vaccinations, with more than 100,000 deaths reported in the past three months.  Many of those deaths were reported in places — and in populations — that had been largely spared the worst effects of the disease until now.

“An NBC News analysis of what changed from the first 100,000 Covid deaths in the U.S. to the most recent 100,000 deaths shows key geographic and demographic shifts in the evolution of the pandemic. Covid  hot spots moved from densely populated cities concentrated in the Northeast and on the West Coast to Southern states and more rural regions. The disease also shifted from disproportionately affecting older adults and people with underlying conditions into a more indiscriminate killer among those who were unvaccinated.  They are deaths that were largely preventable.

‘”This has become a disease of the unimmunized,’ said Dr. James Conway, a pediatric infectious disease specialist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and associate director for health sciences at the school’s Global Health Institute.   The delta variant tore through the South, in particular, where vaccination rates have lagged, especially in more rural regions. Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and West Virginia were among the states that experienced the biggest spikes in Covid death rates during the most recent wave.

“From the first 100,000 deaths to the latest, Florida saw the largest rise in its share of population-adjusted Covid deaths, increasing by nearly 4 percentage points. NBC News’ analysis looked at each state’s Covid death rate adjusted for population and focused on how each state’s share of the country’s overall deaths changed over time. Adjusted for population, Florida’s rate of recent Covid deaths grew  sixfold. Among the states with the largest increase in their share of population-adjusted deaths during the most recent surge, Southern states made up eight of the top 10.”

Good morning. Today is election day in Virginia. Check in if you already voted Republican. Also, if you have family and friends who haven’t voted, please send them a reminder via text or call. Let’s go Old Virginia! Make General Lee proud.

Because you know General Robert E Lee will be smiling from his nice, warm perch of the hereafter if white Virginians don’t elect a guy from the party associated with Black enfranchisement.

Tuesday is election day in Virginia (and a bunch of other states too but Virginia is the only race everyone in the media is really keeping a close eye on because nobody cares about New Jersey or a handful of special US House elections for safe Republican or Democrat districts). Republicans confidently guaranteed victory by Republican Glenn Youngkin while Democrats wearily said it will be tight but former Governor Terry McAuliffe will probably be able to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Republicans also hedged against a possible defeat with their hilarious “voter fraud” routine in which it is impossible for their candidate to lose without malfeasance by Democrats.

Election analysts, men (and some women) who are paid by media outlets to make predictions based on public opinion polls, say this is a tight one, and either Youngkin or McAuliffe could win based on which candidate receives the larger quantity of ballots marked by voters with the bubble or checkbox filled in next to their names. Other pundits said the turnout is key, that if one candidate’s supporters leave their homes and submit a ballot – thus “turn out” – then he will prevail over his opponent in the contest. Still others say the “suburbs” are where this election will be won because the rural areas of Virginia will vote for the Republican while the urban areas will vote for the Democrat. Many have even assigned a helpful color-coded visual heuristic to illustrate this assessment in which the urban areas are colored blue, rural areas red, and suburban areas – localities bearing characteristics common to both urban and rural areas – purple.

The purple is particularly intuitive as, on the visual spectrum that particular color is a blend of the two primary colors red and blue, providing a neat representation of the “mixture” of rural and urban that many associate with real suburbs. Most scientific contexts tend to use “violet” however as it is considered a more exacting term to distinguish its position on the color spectrum as opposed to the more colloquial purple. However most laypersons associate “violet” with a species of flowering plant common to North America. Why the dual usage of the word is not widely accepted is unknown, particularly in light of the co-existence of a color orange and a fruit also called an orange.

Arizona State Senate President Karen Fann, chief architect of the much-maligned Cyber Ninjas Maricopa County “Audit” is retiring and won’t seek reelection in 2022, CNN reports.

“It has been a privilege to advocate on behalf of Arizona citizens in my twelve years at the State Legislature and the honor of a lifetime to serve as Senate President. I look forward to a successful session in 2022 advancing policies that benefit all Arizonans, and then enjoying the life my husband and I have built for ourselves in retirement with our family” Fann said in a statement that complete omitted the spectacular failure to overturn the result of the 2020 election in Arizona’s most populous county as she had been commanded to do by the Orange God Emperor.

“The Democrat mantra is vote early, vote often. This is complete and utter BS. Enough with this insane ‘early voting’ crap. ONE DAY. Make it a holiday if you want. ONE DAY, show up in person, or you don’t get to ****ing vote. Exceptions ONLY for people physically out of the state or country.”

– The current top comment on the Breitbart article “Virginia Sees Record Early Voting Numbers Ahead of Gubernatorial Election“, posted early Tuesday. Making election day a federal holiday is a proposed provision of the For The People Act, opposed unanimously by Republicans in Congress.

Daily Beast: “Two MAGA world luminaries who have spent the better part of a year promoting some of the same election conspiracy theories – Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and QAnon-aligned lawyer Lin Wood – are now pitted against each other in a dispute that could put Greene on the wrong side of a campaign finance violation. Wood, the Georgia defamation lawyer who has floated some of the fringiest of fringe theories about ex-President Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss, posted a note on the Telegram messaging app over the weekend blasting Greene and claiming she still owed him for previous legal work. But it turns out that Wood was not representing his former ally in her personal capacity. Instead, his services went to Greene’s campaign committee as it fought two defamation disputes. Worse still for Greene is Wood’s claim that the Greene campaign has never paid him, raising a number of questions about the legality of their arrangement.”

“A spokesperson for Greene, who handles communications for her congressional office and her campaign, did not offer comment. Four campaign finance experts consulted for this article said Greene’s candidate committee – Greene for Congress – appears at minimum to have violated federal financial reporting laws. They also raised concerns about illegal corporate and in-kind contributions, with some experts pointing to two possibilities in other legal realms: breach of contract, and, in a word, ‘theft,’ if Wood were to take an austere line in state court.”

“Chris Coons is not the US Senator from the state of Delaware,” declares former GOP candidate for Senator from Delaware Lauren Witzke declares.  “It’s looking like Lauren Witzke is.  Uh, irrefutable evidence of election fraud, ah, and the stolen election, and I’m asking the Delaware State Police to stand with me to help me retrieve the people’s stolen property.  So that is my plan to reclaim my Senate seat.  And it is, without reasonable doubt that that seat is mine, you know daggone well that I’m gonna take it.”

Witzke lost the 2020 election for the Delaware Senate seat to incumbent Chris Coons by a 59.4% to 37.9%.

Washington Post:  “It’s a question that scientists have been trying to answer since the start of the pandemic, one that is central to the rancorous political debates over coronavirus vaccine policies: How much immunity does someone have after recovering from a coronavirus infection, and how does it compare with immunity provided by vaccination?
