Staggering Overlap Between States Kamala Won and States with Little to No ID Requirement

Elon Musk tweeted the [above] the other day

Over at Instapundit's Substack, Glenn Reynolds opines — quite rightly and to no one's surprise — that Voter ID law and election integrity should be top priority in new Congress.

 … the GOP should make a national photo ID requirement for federal elections a top priority in the next Congress.  And it should go further.

There are other tools, used in countries we’ve liberated but not in our own country, like dyeing people’s fingers purple so they can’t vote more than once.  And of course, maintaining trustworthy voter rolls, so that when someone shows up claiming to be entitled to vote, there’s good reason to believe that they actually are.  If a person shows up with a photo ID, and it matches a person who is entitled to vote, the odds are very good that they are who they say they are, and they are entitled to vote.

Rules in other countries are generally stricter than what prevails in the United States,as this summary from RealClearPolitics illustrates:

Seventy-four percent of European countries entirely ban absentee voting for citizens who reside domestically. Another 6% limit it to those hospitalized or in the military, and they require third-party verification and a photo voter ID. Another 15% require a photo ID for absentee voting.

Similarly, government-issued photo IDs are required to vote by 33 nations in the 37-member Organistion for Economic Co-operation and Development (which has considerable European overlap). Only the UK, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia currently do not require IDs. Of those outliers: 

  •  … In some countries, even driver’s licenses aren’t considered authoritative enough forms of voter identity verification. The Czech Republic and Russia require passports or military-issued IDs and others use national identity cards. Others go even further: Colombia and Mexico each require a biometric ID to cast a ballot.

    Many countries in Europe and beyond have learned the hard way that fraud can result from looser voting regimes -- and they have instituted stricter voting measures in direct response to it.

  • In the United States, of course, even basic safeguards are wildly controversial among Democrats.  The photo ID requirement, for example, though consistently upheld by courts, is always denounced in the press as racist and claimed to be unconstitutional.  But it’s also favored by huge majorities of, you know, actual voters.

Of course, readers of No Pasarán know that we have been reporting on the same thing as RealClearPolitics for years, now:

• Of the 47 countries in Europe today — the nations and the continent that the Democrats are always telling us to emulate — 46 of them currently require government-issued photo IDs to vote
• Joe Biden, Why Are You Calling Denmark a White Supremacist Country? And You, Barack Obama: Why Are You Calling Africa a Racist Continent?
• Our élites constantly lecture everyone about "disinformation," about "big lies", etc; They're the biggest liars of all, with zero accountability
The January 6 Protest Summarized in One Single Sentence
• Déjà Vu All Over Again in the Banana Republic of Biden: No, the Democrats did not run better campaigns; they cheated, as usual
• Isn’t it strange that in Florida, with all those strict rules against cheating, the GOP red tsunami happened as predicted? The Democrats have again fixed, rigged, and stolen an election
• Let’s dispense with the myth that liberals are really against voter fraud; Voter fraud is actually an essential part of their election strategy
• If the Democrats learned anything from their 2016 debacle it’s that they didn’t cheat nearly enough
• Democrats don't support voter fraud; they just worry about disenfranchising the deceased
• Voter ID: Apparently not allowing minorities to cheat is a form of racial oppression
Isn't America Being Governed by a Mafia Family Dynasty, setting things up so that there will always be Democrats in power?
• Inside of a month, Democrats have redefined riots and election challenges from the highest form of patriotism to an attack on democracy — And by “democracy”, they mean the Democrat Party

"Do You Hear Yourself?!" Besides Martha, Which Other Leftists Deserves JD's Question?

I think both a question mark and an exclamation mark are necessary to drive through JD Vance's reply to ABC's Martha Raddatz. Simply because, like "WTF?!", it is as much — if not more — an exclamation as a question. One which is akin to  "For the love of God, Martha, do you even hear what garbage you yourself are blurting out?!"). Whatever the case, Damian Bennett takes the reply even further and disseminates it throughout the progressives' leftosphere, scattering it to all corners of their inner world:
Let us begin.

Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s wife, Gwen, said she left her windows open to “smell the burning tires” during the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots because she felt it was a “touchstone” moment.

Keep your windows open as the sweet sweet smell of napalm in the morning wafts in from the DNC and the blue cabals and lefty media and the DTDS asylums all going up in flames, and bookmark this...

MARTHA RADDATZABC News: “Senator Vance, I’m going to stop you because I know exactly what happened. I’m going to stop you.The incidents were limited to a handful of apartment complex — apartment complexes and the mayor said our dedicated police officers have acted on those concerns. A handful of problems.
JDV: Only 
 Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs, and Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris’s open border? ... I really find this exchange, Martha, sort of interesting because you seem to be more focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump has said rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs.

...edit the quære accordingly. Strap in. It's been a long road to N5.
  • Martha Joe, do you hear yourself? March 6, 2024
    JOE SCARBOROUGH, MSNBC Morning Joe co-host & say-absolutely-anything shill, person of privilege: “This is  and I don't  you know what I don't really  start your tape right now because I'm about to tell you the truth. And ‘F’ you if you can't handle the truth. This version of Biden intellectually, analytically, is THE BEST BIDEN EVER. Not a close second. And I have known him for years. The Brzezinski have known him for 50 years. If it weren't the truth I wouldn't say it.
    [NB: 114 days later Joe had this to say
    “In 2024, failure is not an option. So who I love, who I respect, who I revere for their work and their duty to service over their lifetime really is not relevant. It's not relevant for any of us. It's not relevant for Democrat leaders. it's not relevant for anyone. The question is can -- we know Joe Biden can govern. ... He can run the White House. He can run the country effectively...but can he run for president in 2024?
    ]
    • EPIC JOE [Past blast. Strap in.] November 21, 2023: “[Trump] is not a normal candidate. He's running to end American democracy as we know it. He's an authoritarian who a court, ah, in in Colorado two days ago ruled that that he led an insurrection against the United States government. He's charged with leading schemes to help overthrow the United States government. ... When people go, 'Ooh, you can't compare him to any past Nazi leaders. You can't compare him to this past Nazi leader or that past fascist leader, because he hasn't done it.' Wah, what hasn't he done? He hasn't done the things the American judicial system did not allow him to do last time, but may very well allow him to do this time  OR  a judicial system that will be ignored by Donald Trump and ran [sic] over by Donald Trump to create the greatest Constitutional crisis of our lifetimes. Just because he hasn't done it yet, doesn't mean he WON'T do it when he gets a chance to do it! And if he is voted into office then a lot these people that are talking about literal or figurative or whatever the hell they're saying -- you're going to look like idiots. Uh, because he will do, he will get away with, he will imprison, he will execute whoever he's allowed to imprison, execute, uh uh uh drive from the country. Just look at his past. It’s not really hard to read. ...

He’s not joking when he says this stuff, and we’ve seen what happens when people take power proclaiming that kind of agenda. ... For that matter, what convinces you that these massive camps he’s planning are only for migrants? So, yes, I’m worried about me — but only as much as I’m worried about all of us.

    “It’s really about the misogyny and the racism that drives the thing, and we got to recognize that. It’s not about any policy prescription.

[Several hours later.] No matter the intelligence level, the very sad thing about being stupid, being a ridiculous person, is that with a little effort one need not be. Make the little effort, but few stupid, ridiculous people do. There are at least two generations going to the grave stupid. They weren't born stupid. Many are quite possibly highly intelligent. Sadly, these two generations have been taught not to think, yes, intelligentia possibilia undisturbed by thinking. Instead they have learned to vogue, to vogue for applause and smiles and clicks and likes from their fellow possibly highly intelligent voguers. When native intelligence, great or limited, becomes invested in stupidity, stakes its fortunes in stupidity, it becomes hostage to stupidity, and the intelligence forms a trauma bond with its captor. The captor becomes consolatory, the gaol a safe place to be, a nice place to be. Heart emojis, likes, follows, clicks, monetized views, cat videos -- two generations going to the grave stupid. Ah, but within the claque, stupid and happy.

If you are to meet N5 traumatized relatives or friends over the holidays -- at a well-appointed Thanksgiving dinner table, around a festive heavily decorated Christmas tree, clinking flutes of Biden-flated Verdi Spumante on NYE, or wherever, whenever -- emulate John Milton touring the Vatican, no talk of religion (or politics) unless another brings it up for dispute. But once assailed, have at it hammer and tong. Make them cry.

"He Ain't F--kin' Around": Trump Outlines Plan To Decimate The Deep State

Damian Bennett is as excited as I am after reading the news at Modernity.

 Damian Bennett:

He's not f*cking around.

Trump Outlines Plan To Decimate The Deep State* November 8, 2024
10. “Push a constitutional amendment to oppose IMPOSE term limits on members of Congress.”

A man. A plan. It's happening. Keep in mind, determined reformers Elon Musk and RFK-J will be part of this. So, yeah, it's happening.

3. “Totally reform FISA courts which are so corrupt that the judges seemingly do not care when they’re lied to in warrant applications.”

Soviet-style rubber-stamp legal cover for Soviet-style citizen surveillance and prosecutions. Ds love it, Rs reauthorize it.


Duh-huh. To lift a Joe Rogan tweet: You know when your dad used to come home from work and you’re about to get fucked up because you’ve been a little shit all day? Well…

What I voted for. 

Think on this, cosmic political symmetry requires Nancy Pelosi to proportionally fade and shed lumens with every Trump sunburst. I predict a battered, defanged darkling Nancy will not run again in 2026. Uh buh-b-bye.

Modernity

Here are Trump’s ten moves to bury the Deep State.

1. “Immediately reissue my 2020 executive order, restoring the President’s authority to remove rogue bureaucrats.”

2. “Clean out all of the corrupt actors in our national security and intelligence apparatus.”

3. “Totally reform FISA courts which are so corrupt that the judges seemingly do not care when they’re lied to in warrant applications.”

4. “Expose the hoaxes and abuses of power that have been tearing our country apart.”

5. “Launch a major crackdown on government leakers who collude with the fake news to deliberately we false narratives and to subvert our government and our democracy.”

6. “Make every Inspector General’s office independent and physically separated from the departments they oversee so they do not become the protectors of the deep state.”

7. “Ask Congress to establish an independent auditing system to continually monitor our intelligence agencies to ensure they are not spying on our citizens or running disinformation campaigns against the American people, or that they are not spying on someone’s campaign like they spied on my campaign.”

8. “Continue the effort launched by the Trump administration to move parts of the sprawling federal bureaucracy to new locations outside the Washington Swamp.”

9. “Work to ban federal bureaucrats from taking jobs at the companies they deal with and that they regulate.”

10. “Push a constitutional amendment to oppose term limits on members of Congress.”
