Wisconsin is probably the most important State in terms of the next Presidential Election.

In July 2022, the state Supreme Court, then under a conservative majority, held that absentee ballot drop boxes, which were used widely during the 2020 election, were not authorized under state statute and, therefore, the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) guidance encouraging their use was unlawful.

This is the law. Similar to the Chevron case RE Fishing on the East Coast, regulators just cannot make stuff up and then enforce it as law. In that case, among other injustices, they wanted boat operators to pay for the costs of observers on every boat every day they were out of harbor, and to provide them all the essentials of life, including safety.

Here is the lie called out in plain site, in yellow. They are creating a definition, and one that would be astronomically odds against being able to achieve in practice. How would one person do all this? Or does the Municipal Clerk get to delegate his obligation to others, maybe paid by Zuckerberg or Soros?

What are some possible actions? chat

State Supreme Court justices can face various forms of accountability if their actions are deemed to go against the law as written. Here are some mechanisms by which they can be censored, punished, or have their rulings quashed:

1. Judicial Review and Higher Courts

• Appeals to Higher Courts: If a state Supreme Court’s decision is perceived as unlawful, it can sometimes be appealed to the United States Supreme Court, which has the authority to overturn state Supreme Court decisions if they violate federal law or the U.S. Constitution.
• Rehearing Requests: Parties involved in a case can request a rehearing if there is a belief that the court’s decision was based on a misunderstanding or misapplication of the law.

2. Legislative and Executive Oversight

• Impeachment: State legislators can impeach justices for misconduct, including gross dereliction of duty or violations of rights. The impeachment process typically involves charges brought by the lower house of the state legislature and a trial in the upper house.
• Removal by Governor: In some states, the governor has the authority to remove justices for cause, subject to legislative approval or specific procedures outlined in state law.

3. Judicial Discipline Commissions

• Judicial Conduct Boards: Most states have judicial conduct boards or commissions that investigate complaints against judges, including state Supreme Court justices. These bodies can recommend disciplinary actions ranging from censure to removal from office.
• Ethical Violations: Justices can be disciplined for ethical violations, such as conflict of interest, bias, or failure to follow established legal standards.

4. Public Accountability

• Retention Elections: In some states, justices face retention elections where the public votes on whether they should remain in office. A controversial or unlawful ruling can influence the public to vote against a justice’s retention.
• Public Pressure and Advocacy: Public opinion and advocacy groups can exert pressure on justices through media campaigns and public demonstrations, potentially leading to legislative action or influencing judicial conduct bodies.

5. Civil and Criminal Liabilities

• 18 U.S.C. § 242: This federal statute makes it a crime for any person acting under color of law to willfully deprive someone of their rights protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. If a state Supreme Court justice’s actions are found to violate this statute, they could face criminal charges. However, proving such violations in the context of judicial decisions is complex and rare.

6. Quashing Unlawful Rulings

• Federal Court Intervention: If a state Supreme Court ruling is unconstitutional or violates federal law, federal courts can issue orders to quash or overturn the ruling.
• State Constitutional Amendments: State legislatures can amend the state constitution to override judicial interpretations and clarify legal standards, effectively quashing the impact of specific rulings.

Examples

• Pennsylvania Supreme Court Impeachment: In 1994, Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice Rolf Larsen was impeached and removed from office for actions that included improper conduct and misuse of prescription drugs.
• California Supreme Court Recall: In 1986, three justices of the California Supreme Court, including Chief Justice Rose Bird, were not retained in a public vote primarily due to their controversial rulings on the death penalty.

Conclusion

State Supreme Court justices are subject to various checks and balances that can hold them accountable for unlawful actions. These mechanisms ensure that no judicial body operates entirely without oversight or potential consequences for misconduct.

stock here: I got the article summary from Chat, as the article itself kind of rambled about. Orig Substack

https://miri.substack.com/p/putting-the-no-in-hypnosis

Article Summary

The article discusses the use of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and hypnosis tactics during the COVID-19 pandemic and suggests that similar techniques are being used to discourage voting in upcoming elections. The author and NLP trainer, Debbie Williams, describes how repetitive phrases and fear-inducing messages were used during the pandemic to manipulate public behavior. She expresses concern that similar methods are now being employed to dissuade dissidents from voting, thereby maintaining the status quo and benefiting the global elite.

Specific NLP Tactics Identified

1. Repetitive Phrases and Mantras: Phrases like “Trust the science,” “Protect the NHS,” and “Don’t kill granny” were repeated frequently to create compliance through subconscious conditioning.
2. Fear Induction: Continuous fear-mongering was used to place the population in a trance-like state, making them more susceptible to suggestions.
3. Confusion and Amnesia: Confusing messages and mixed signals were used to induce a trance and create amnesia, making people forget initial doubts and follow imposed behaviors.
4. Post-Hypnotic Suggestions: Phrases like “The new normal” were used to embed new behaviors and thoughts that felt natural and self-originated.
5. Learned Helplessness: Similar to the Milgram experiment and rat experiments, constant stress and fear led to a state where people felt their actions were futile, reinforcing compliance and inaction.
6. Soundbites and Memes: Simple, repeatable phrases like “It’s all rigged” and “I do not consent” are used to create a sense of hopelessness and apathy towards voting.

Key Points and Concerns

• COVID-19 Manipulation: The government’s “nudge unit” and the Behavioral Insights Team (BIT) used NLP to enforce compliance with COVID-19 measures.
• Current Use Against Voting: There is a concern that similar NLP tactics are now being used to convince dissidents not to vote, ensuring the continuation of the current political agenda.
• Propaganda Techniques: The article points out how slogans, fear, and confusion are strategically used to influence behavior and suppress dissent.
• Call to Action: Williams urges readers to recognize these manipulative tactics and to research and vote for candidates who align with their values, rather than abstaining from voting out of cynicism or hopelessness.

The article ultimately calls for awareness of these psychological manipulations and encourages active participation in elections to counteract the potential undermining of democratic processes through NLP and hypnosis tactics.

Yes, the term “Chosen” (also spelled “Chosun” or “Joseon”) can be sensitive in a Korean context. It historically refers to the Joseon Dynasty, which ruled Korea from 1392 to 1897. However, during the Japanese occupation of Korea (1910-1945), “Chosen” was used by the Japanese to refer to Korea, and it carries negative connotations for many Koreans because of the oppression and hardships experienced during that period.

Using “Chosen” in certain contexts, especially in reference to Korean people or culture, can be seen as a slur or offensive due to its association with the colonial period and the suffering under Japanese rule.

So did the surrender of Japan to USA on that carrier coincide with Japan relinquishing control over Korea, was that part of the dealChatGPT

Yes, the surrender of Japan to the United States on September 2, 1945, aboard the USS Missouri marked the end of World War II and Japan’s relinquishment of control over Korea. The formal surrender also signified the end of Japanese colonial rule in Korea, which had lasted from 1910 to 1945.

Following Japan’s surrender, Korea was liberated from Japanese occupation. However, the country was subsequently divided along the 38th parallel into two zones of occupation: the Soviet Union occupied the north, and the United States occupied the south. This division eventually led to the establishment of two separate Korean states in 1948: the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) and the Republic of Korea (South Korea).

how long did USA occupying south Korea, and why did we give half to Russia, or maybe it wasn’t a give, but a strong arm maneuver by Russia

ChatGPT

The United States occupied South Korea from 1945 until the establishment of the Republic of Korea (South Korea) on August 15, 1948. The division of Korea along the 38th parallel was not a straightforward “giving” of territory to the Soviet Union but rather a strategic decision influenced by the circumstances at the end of World War II and the emerging Cold War tensions between the U.S. and the Soviet Union.

Here are the key points regarding the division and occupation:

1. Division at the 38th Parallel:
   • The division was initially proposed by the United States as a temporary measure to facilitate the surrender of Japanese forces in Korea. On August 10, 1945, two young U.S. Army officers, Dean Rusk and Charles Bonesteel, hastily drew the line at the 38th parallel, partly because it was easily identifiable and roughly divided the peninsula into two equal parts.
   • The Soviet Union accepted the division, and both sides agreed to supervise the disarmament of Japanese forces in their respective zones.
2. Soviet Occupation in the North:
   • The Soviet Union quickly moved into the northern part of Korea, establishing a communist government. This was part of their broader strategy to expand their influence in East Asia and counterbalance U.S. presence in the region.
3. U.S. Occupation in the South:
   • The U.S. occupied the southern part of Korea and aimed to establish a non-communist government. The U.S. military government faced significant challenges, including political unrest and economic difficulties.
4. Emerging Cold War Tensions:
   • The division of Korea soon reflected the larger geopolitical struggle between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. Each superpower supported the development of ideologically aligned governments in their respective zones.
   • Efforts to unify Korea under a single government failed due to the conflicting interests of the U.S. and the Soviet Union, as well as internal Korean political divisions.
5. Formation of Separate States:
   • In 1948, the Republic of Korea (South Korea) was established in the south with the support of the United States, and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) was established in the north with the support of the Soviet Union.

The division of Korea and the subsequent establishment of separate governments marked the beginning of the Korean conflict, which eventually led to the Korean War in 1950. The division was more a product of Cold War geopolitics and power struggles than a simple transfer or “giving” of territory.

when were the nuke bombs dropped on japanChatGPT

The nuclear bombs were dropped on Japan in August 1945:

1. Hiroshima: The first bomb, named “Little Boy,” was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945.
2. Nagasaki: The second bomb, named “Fat Man,” was dropped on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945.

These bombings were pivotal events leading to Japan’s surrender and the end of World War II. Japan formally surrendered on September 2, 1945, aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay.

stock here: more history I didn’t know, that Japan was occupying Korea from 1910 to 1945, see image, which make the NYT article even more inflammatory, as they promote the exploits of the “Chosen Company” since “Chosen” is also a derogatory slur

The article discusses alleged war crimes committed by members of an American-led volunteer unit in Ukraine known as the “Chosen Company.” Key points include:

1. Incident Descriptions:
   • A wounded, unarmed Russian soldier seeking to surrender was shot by a fellow Chosen Company soldier.
   • Another incident involved a Chosen member throwing a grenade at a surrendering Russian soldier with raised hands, captured on video.
2. Verification and Evidence:
   • Grosse, a member of the unit, documented these events in his journal and provided this to The New York Times.
   • The Times verified some incidents with video evidence, showing edited footage released by the Ukrainian military that omitted these war crimes.
   • Text messages from a group chat reviewed by The Times showed Chosen members boasting about killing Russian POWs.
3. Unit’s Internal Reaction:
   • Grosse was disturbed by these events and confronted his commander.
   • Some unit members attempted to enforce silence, warning against speaking to reporters and threatening consequences.
4. Highlighted Individuals:
   • A Greek soldier known as Zeus was central to multiple episodes involving the killing of surrendering Russians.
   • A soldier with the call sign Andok took responsibility for ordering the killings in group chat messages but later claimed he was joking.

The strongest evidence presented includes:

• Grosse’s journal entries.
• Video footage reviewed by The Times.
• Text messages from group chats discussing and boasting about the killings.

The article implies that these incidents could be part of a broader pattern of war crimes by foreign volunteer units in Ukraine, which the mainstream media has largely ignored.

SUMMARY: STATE LAWS REGARDING PRESIDENTIAL BALLOT ACCESS FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION Updated January 2020

==========================================

=============================================

This document provides a summary of the laws in each state relevant to the placement of a candidate for president on the general election ballot, and the
requirements for a presidential candidate to run as a write-in candidate. Generally, a presidential candidate nominated by a political party that meets certain
criteria is placed on the general election ballot. The criteria is often based on a threshold number of votes cast at a recent election for a particular office or offices.
A number of states provide an alternative mechanism for an organization to qualify in order to nominate candidates, for example by filing a petition or having a
certain number of voters affiliated with the organization. Additionally, all states have a procedure for independent candidates, and in some cases individual
presidential candidates of a political organization, to obtain ballot access.

Most states also permit a presidential candidate to be a write-in candidate, and many of these states require that the candidate file a notice prior to the election.

The summary for each state includes the

1) Timeframes for certifying the names of the candidates for president and vice-president and the names of the presidential electors;

2) the requirements for a political party to be eligible to nominate a presidential candidate;

3) the number of signatures required on a petition in order for a presidential candidate to obtain ballot access;

4) a description of any additional ballot access methods where applicable;

5) and the timeframes required for filing a
notice in order to be a write-in candidate for president.

============================
It is important to note that the information in this document is based on a NASS review of relevant state ballot access requirements (in 2020).

This document is intended to provide a general overview of these requirements. It is not intended as an interpretation of those laws, or as a procedure guide or manual for political parties or
prospective candidates with regard to presidential ballot access.

States have a variety of filings and other requirements pertaining to political parties, presidential candidates, presidential electors, and petitions. Additionally, ballot access laws may change at any time based on new state laws and/or court decisions.

Candidates and political parties should contact the relevant state election office and/or legal counsel for information on the specific rules and requirements for each state.

Additionally, where political parties nominate a candidate, the nomination process varies greatly based on the state, the legal status of each party, and the rules
and procedures of each party. Individuals should contact the political parties for information on the party nomination process.

stock here: my last post got a bit long in the tooth. Just check this out. First snippet is for New Jersey, LOL. Info is from:

https://ballotpedia.org/Presidential_election,_2024#Upcoming_dates

This is sure curious, Wisconsin and California are the only 2 states with equal Dem and Rep wins

So I tried to get ChatGPT to actually find each States Election Deadlines, and it crapped out with this fake table. Then I asked it to search specifically for each State one by one, and it only did Alabama of which their deadline is August 15, earlier than the Dem Convention of Aug 19 to 22. Hmmmmm

Certification of Nomination Deadlines for Presidential Candidates in Alabama

For the 2024 presidential election, Alabama has set specific deadlines for the certification of nominations by political parties. Here are the details:

1. Certification Deadline: Political parties must submit their certification of nomination for President and Vice President no later than August 15, 2024. This deadline ensures that the candidates’ names appear on the general election ballot in November.
2. Context: This deadline is crucial because it falls just before the national conventions, ensuring that all necessary paperwork is completed promptly to facilitate ballot preparation.

I found a document from 2020 that already summarized each state, and that is HERE
https://www.nass.org/sites/default/files/surveys/2020-07/research-ballot-access-president-Jan20_0.pdf

Chatty then came up with this:

Alabama: August 15, 2024.

Alaska: September 4, 2024.

Arizona: September 6, 2024.

Arkansas: August 1, 2024.

California: August 9, 2024. {after an hour of research, it was found the real deadline is a soft deadline of August 24th, see below}

“The document provided was from 2020, so it would be disastrous for the dem party to miss the deadline on California, so can you deep dive on California’s deadline for certification? using 2024 laws and regs.” was asked of Chat

https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/upcoming-elections/general-election-nov-5-2024/key-dates-deadlines

They start off with a Climate Scare:

“If you choose Trump, You will all burn up!!!!”

The summary table for California is vague, what is this notice to candidates 73 days before the election, Aug 24. 73 is rather an odd number too, just saying. SPOILER: It took me an hour, but finally got to the meat of the matter, and California just changed their laws this year and that law allows a “soft deadline” of Aug 24 to submit the candidate, unless the national convention had not occurred, and then that party can just submit all presumptive candidates, like Gaven Newsome, with no deadline to ever submit the final choice. Seriously folks, they just changed the law this year, as if they have AI working on “how can we delay and cheat the most”. The details are in 6901.5 as listed far below.

It is fairly odd that the Republican and Democrat parties are so enshrined within California law as to have separate sections of the law define the requirements for each party. The below applies to a “primary election”, and 88 days before would be August 9th in relation to the Presidential election, just saying.

6340.

(a) The Secretary of State shall place the name of a candidate upon the Republican presidential primary ballot when the Secretary of State has determined that the candidate is generally advocated for or recognized throughout the United States or California as a candidate for the nomination of the Republican Party for President of the United States.

(b) On or before the 88th day preceding a presidential primary election the Secretary of State shall publicly announce and distribute to the news media for publication a list of the candidates the Secretary of State intends to place on the ballot at the following presidential primary election. Following this announcement the Secretary of State may add candidates to the Secretary of State’s selection, but the Secretary of State shall not delete any candidate whose name appears on the announced list.

(Amended by Stats. 2019, Ch. 149, Sec. 8. (SB 505) Effective July 30, 2019.)

The procedures for the actual Presidential election do not seem to be defined….but they do seem sincere on being available to and and all the minority groups in California. You can “email” them, but not really…you have to use their form, which is a denial of communication due to too lengthy, and no tracking (like if you used your standard email program in which your outgoing email would be preserved). Form is below the contact page.

Chat has now determined that the Certification date must be August 15th because that aligns with the “randomized alphabet drawing for the order of the candidates”, which is still a leap of logic, since they could take the 5 parties that they have separate sections in the code, in order in the code: Democrat, Republican, American Independent Party, Peace and Freedom Party, Green Party. And do the randomized selection, even if one of those parties failed to send in their certification at a later date.

They publish a General Elections calendar, which is detailed, and cites relevant code. This snippet is an example, but it appears to be for the counties, since you would think the Presidential race details would happen at the State level, by the pHD Secretary of State

Here is the calendar link

https://elections.cdn.sos.ca.gov/statewide-elections/2024-primary/section-08-general-election-calendar.pdf

AH!!! Here it is, 8-22-2024 is the real deadline, although it is a “soft” deadline (if the national convention has not yet been held). Aiyaiyai!!!

Cool, they just amended this section in 2024, Jan 1.

https://law.justia.com/codes/california/code-elec/division-6/part-2/chapter-1/section-6901-5/

“Added by Stats 2023 ch 72 (SB 437),s 1, eff. 1/1/2024.” Cal. Elec. Code § 6901.5

The “Electors” are important, and there meeting after the election and prior to the “Crowning Ceremony” is where the State’s Electoral College points are issued/appointed. They just changed this law too, allowing for the chance of a “State of Emergency” in which case they can meet in any secret place they want to “Elect the President”. Not fishy at all.

And what is this BS on picking that meeting date….is this intentional to throw off AI attempts at summarizing the dates?

(a) The electors chosen shall assemble at the State Capitol at 2 o’clock in the afternoon on the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December next following their election.

OK Here are some other Heavy Hitters in the Electoral College:

California:

• Official Deadline: August 9, 2024.
• Soft Deadline: August 24, 2024.

Texas:

• Deadline: The party’s state chair must deliver the written certification of the names of the party’s nominees for president and vice-president, and the names and residence addresses of the 40 presidential elector candidates to the Secretary of State by 5 p.m. on the 71st day before the presidential election day. This falls around August 26, 2024​ (Texas Secretary of State)​​ (Texas Secretary of State)​.

Florida:

• Deadline: No later than noon on August 24, 2024, the major political party must submit a certified list of the presidential electors who have been selected and sworn to represent the party candidate nominee if the candidate nominee wins the General Election in November​ (Florida Department of State)​​ (MyFloridaElections)​.

LOL Jersey does the same BS confusion

stock here: by putting this out there, maybe we can prevent it from happening, LOL publishing their thought crime in advance to preclude the real crime. We will look at FBI Neo-Nazi Bike Gangs and the Entrapment involved in another article, think Mueller.

It was always suspicious to me that the Communists Democrats put their caucus in late August 19 to 22 in Chicago of all places. Noted that the Republicans do their convention in Milwaukee July 15 to 18. This date comes after the deadline for finalizing a candidate in some states, all states have their own rules. It was claimed a week or two back that the Dem convention would therefore miss the Colorado deadline, but Colorado states the party must submit a certificate of nomination 73 days before the election which is August 24, 2024 so it seems that it could work out. I wonder if the law was changed? Or if the earlier reporter had jumped the gun and the shark?

Some states have strict requirements for changing a candidate as the election comes closer, such as in Wisconsin the only reason that a different candidate could be picked is “Death”. Let’s say that Biden doesn’t die, but is so incapacitated that it is clear he cannot serve another term, much less even start another term, that is 10 states, there is NO DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE. Talk about the outrage factory….this “right wing neo nazi plot” to destroy our democracy, and it was Trump that made Biden go bad by his continuous insults and jabs at this poor old man….and therefore we need to suspend the constitution until a new government can be formed and have proper elections, maybe in spring time (after you peons have gotten used to Marshall law whilst we release another bio-weapon too).

I hope this is a warning and not providing them a game plan <sarc>

From the link

The video’s first scene is rife with symbolism relating to Monarch programming.

The Sinister Meaning of Taylor Swift’s “Fortnight”

Taylor Swift is in a psych ward-type room and is chained to a bed. Her bed is “floating” in the air, which hints at her dissociative state as an MK slave. Other items in the room are askew or upside down, further conveying the slave’s confused perception of reality due to various techniques, including lots of drugs. Speaking of which, a creepy (upside down) nurse enters the room to give Taylor her dose.

An astute commenter had this to say:

I’m not completely confident that the NWO tyrants will allow elections to take place this November.
I’m very concerned that they’re planning to stage another 911 type event, but far more serious (perhaps a nuclear bomb going off in an American city?).

Or it could be another “pandemic”, but one that is much more lethal. Monkeypox hasn’t exactly worked out for them, but I’m confident they have dozens of other much more serious diseases waiting for deployment, when and if needed.
Carrying out another extremely catastrophic pre-planned event will allow them to instantly declare martial law, “temporarily” suspend the elections… and that will be the end of our freedoms.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they even put a cherry on top by using pre-arranged “assets” that implicate “right wing domestic terrorist groups”, undoubtedly Trump supporters.
I SINCERELY hope I’m wrong, but given that an integral part of the fascist NWO ideology is to massively reduce the number of “useless eaters”, murdering several tens of millions of innocent people to further their agenda isn’t unimaginable.
In their twisted world view it would be considered a benefit, killing two birds with one stone so to speak.
After all, look what they did with covid. They could have never stolen the 2020 election like they did without the almost complete suppression of the old voting system and its replacement with the illegal covid scam version.
If the NWO tools in the democratic party lose big enough in 2024 – and it looks inevitable at this point – it would seriously undermine their efforts to fully take over the country, and then the world.
A rat is the most dangerous when it’s cornered.

stock here: some comments on YouTube are extremely astute. I don’t remember this one, but I used to write my own Star Trek episodes.

A-Eye

Gene Roddenberry was 100% spot on with his Star Trek episode Season 2 Episode 21 ” Patterns of Force”

The “Star Trek” episode “Patterns of Force” (Season 2, Episode 21) is notable for its provocative storyline, where the crew of the USS Enterprise discovers that a Federation historian, John Gill, has imposed a Nazi-like regime on the planet Ekos. This episode explores the dangerous consequences of attempting to use a fascist system to create order, showcasing how such ideologies can be twisted to justify atrocities and totalitarian control.

Plot Summary

The episode begins with the Enterprise arriving at the planet Ekos to investigate the disappearance of Federation cultural observer John Gill. The crew is shocked to find that Ekos has developed a society mirroring Nazi Germany, complete with swastikas and Nazi-style uniforms. They discover that Gill, attempting to bring order to a chaotic society, modeled Ekos’ government after Nazi Germany, believing it to be the most efficient system. However, his intentions are perverted by his deputy, Melakon, who uses the regime to promote xenophobia and genocide against the neighboring planet, Zeon.

Kirk and Spock infiltrate the regime, eventually finding Gill drugged and used as a puppet by Melakon. With the help of the resistance, they manage to awaken Gill temporarily, who then denounces the regime and cancels the planned genocide before being killed by Melakon. The episode ends with the Ekosians and Zeons beginning to rebuild their societies without the oppressive Nazi influence.

Analysis

The episode is a stark commentary on the allure and danger of authoritarian systems, demonstrating how even well-intentioned actions can lead to horrific outcomes when such ideologies are employed. It also critiques the idea of imposing external governance systems on other cultures, highlighting the ethical breaches and unforeseen consequences of such actions.

Reception

“Patterns of Force” was controversial, especially in Germany, where it was banned from broadcast until 1995 due to its depiction of Nazi symbols and themes. This underscores the sensitive nature of its content and the powerful impact of its anti-fascist message.

Overall, Gene Roddenberry’s vision in this episode was to use science fiction as a lens to critique real-world political and social issues, a hallmark of the “Star Trek” series.

For more detailed information, you can check the episode’s summaries and analyses on sources like Wikipedia and Memory Alpha.
