NOVEMBER THIRTEENTH ROUNDUP OF NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS

Another look at current events from Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog as we Americans wonder if President Donald Trump will make it to Inauguration Day alive and well. He’s been very open about his plans to limit the power of America’s spy agencies. The last president to do that was John F. Kennedy when he vowed to shatter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter those pieces to the winds. JFK was eliminated.

          Also, in November and December of 2016 anti-Trump fascists tried intimidating the members of the Electoral College into not casting their votes for Trump even though he won the election, even going so far as DOXING those Electors. I mention this because too many people seem to have forgotten the anti-Trump push for “Faithless Electors” 8 years ago.

FEMA SCANDAL ABOUT THE HARRIS-BIDEN REGIME TELLING HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF WORKERS NOT TO OFFER AID AT HOMES WITH TRUMP SIGNS EXPANDS. Looks like the administrator who was fired was just part of the story. These are Chicago tactics.

THE LATEST UGLY REVELATIONS ABOUT CORRUPT REPUBLICAN SENATOR MITCH MCCONNELL. Even more HERE.  

CENTRAL AMERICAN NATIONS FORM REGIONAL COALITION TO WORK WITH TRUMP.

SAUDIS EXPRESS HOPE THAT TRUMP CAN COMPLETE HIS WORK OF PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

DEMOCRATS AT NBC NEWS ADMIT THAT TRUMP REALIGNED THE ENTIRE POLITICAL MAP.

POMPOUS DEMOCRAT “ACADEMIC” JUSTLY RIDICULED FOR HER ELECTION DAY VIDEO SNOBBISHLY STATING HER EXPERTISE TOLD HER KAMALA WOULD WIN. She roundly ridiculed a person she merely SUSPECTED of being a Trump voter. This person embodies what hilariously pretentious asses Democrats are. More HERE.

EVEN MORE DEMOCRAT SNOBBERY FROM “ACADEMIA” (LMAO) – “Educated people vote blue.” Keep it up, Democrats. You drive away more and more voters. 

DEMOCRAT ICON MICHAEL DOUGLAS ADMITS THAT TRUMP HAS MADE HIS PARTY THE “PARTY OF THE PEOPLE” WHILE DEMOCRATS ARE SEEN AS “ELITISTS.” Tell us something we don’t know. Continue reading

FORGOTTEN TELEVISION: ALL THAT GLITTERS (1977)

All that glittersALL THAT GLITTERS (1977) – With the syndicated late-night soap opera satire Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman becoming a cultural phenomenon in the 1970s, Norman Lear launched this oddball, self-consciously “adult” program which added a touch of parallel world sci-fi stories to the soapiness.

All That Glitters was a comedy set in a world where women were in charge and men filled workplace and societal roles filled by women in our world at the time. The humor in this show is painfully dated but the inversion of roles still gives it a certain strange watchability.

All That glitters 2Want to see women running the business world and men serving as secretaries while getting ogled and sexually harassed? This show’s got it! Want to see a tuxedo-clad groom carrying flowers and walking down the aisle toward his intended bride? This show’s got it! Continue reading

“TRUMP SINGLE HANDEDLY TURNED THE GOP POPULIST. WHICH GUTS THE UNIPARTY” SAYS LIBERTARIAN ECONOMIST MURRAY ROTHBARD

THE EMOTIONALLY CRIPPLED DEMOCRATS WHO RUN COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES CANCELED CLASSES SO THAT THEIR PROPAGANDIZED STUDENTS COULD COPE WITH TRUMP’S WIN. Just like in 2016, and NONE of their dire predictions for a Trump presidency came true during his first term. 

TRUMP DEFEATED HARRIS IN ALL SEVEN SWING STATES. The 2024 election is being called “the revenge of the working class” on Democrat intolerance and misrule. More HERE.

OTHER UNIVERSITIES LITERALLY GIVING THEIR “STUDENTS” MILK AND COOKIES TO COPE WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP’S VICTORY. These are not adults in any way, shape or form.

ELECTION DAY PLUS ONE ROUNDUP OF NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS

don it againEarlier today Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog posted my congratulations to President Donald Trump and his populist movement which has upset the American establishment’s cesspool of political corruption even more than in 2016.

           Hopefully parasitic political families like the Bushes, Cheneys and Romneys (Republican) and the Pelosis, Bidens and Clintons (Democrat) will trouble us no more.

PEGGY RYAN’S ITEM ABOUT THE TRUMP PHENOMENON. For just one excerpt, “ … in one of the darkest periods of our country’s history, a man stepped out from the political quagmire to stop the attacks on our Constitution, to save America.” 

GREAT PIECE ON “TRUMP’S ELECTRIFYING, WORLD-CHANGING VICTORY.”

THE MORNING AFTER: TRUMP AND THE PEOPLE WIN THIS ROUND, KAMALA AND AMERICA’S CORRUPT ESTABLISHMENT LOSE

Congratulations to de facto Third Party President Donald Trump, America’s populist leader, for enduring a storm of cowardly, destructive attacks that no president since Abraham Lincoln had to endure from their enemies on the way to another term.

Trump’s incredible fighting spirit and grassroots efforts against the white-collar criminals of America’s political establishment have won so far with election night behind us.

Not to be forgotten are the many legislative and court victories for election integrity since the 2020 debacle. Balladeer’s Blog covered all those efforts to prevent a recurrence of such fraudulent tactics every step of the way. 

As for the other election races around the country, Real Clear Politics has projected Trump’s political party retaking the Senate, but with the final figure on House of Representatives races still undetermined. Continue reading

BEST OF N.E.T. PLAYHOUSE (1966-1972) FORGOTTEN TELEVISION

It is such a waste that so few installments of National Educational Television Playhouse are available despite video copies still being in their archives. For six years, N.E.T. Playhouse offered up some of the most interesting, profound and innovative productions from around the world. That 1966-1972 run puts what passes for educational television today to shame.   

HAMILE (January 15th, 1970) – A Ghanaian adaptation of Hamlet written by that nation’s Joe C. De Graft and performed by actors from the National Theatre of Ghana.

De Graft sets the action in Tongo, changes the names Hamlet and Laertes to Hamile and Laitu, plus he adapts swordplay into traditional Ghanaian wrestling in this 2-hour production.

YESTERDAY THE CHILDREN WERE DANCING (February 26th, 1970) – A 90-minute CBC drama about the 1964 terrorist attacks in Canada launched by Quebec Separatists and plans for further attacks during the federal elections.

The French-Canadien Gravel family falls apart over divisions on the entire issue of independence for Quebec. Adapted from the play by Gratien Gelinas.  Continue reading

THE NAME DONALD TRUMP DOES NOT APPEAR IN THIS BLOG POST ABOUT JANUARY SIXTH

Here at Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog I will leave out one particular name in this blog post because it is unbelievable how many people are either uninformed or lying when they say that anything that happened on January 6th of 2021 could have returned the incumbent to office.

I’m making this post today because from tomorrow onward for who knows how long the election will be addressed, so this is a look at a non-election day matter of basic civics.

For people who get angry just seeing a certain name, rest assured I will not include it in the body of this post, so please consider these words as important information, no matter who you vote for. It’s alarming that so much hysteria has been encouraged over a procedure that a lot of Americans and non-Americans are obviously unclear about. Continue reading

poll remarks

Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog takes another look at current events here in an America where Democrats pretend that Kellyanne Conway, the first woman to manage a successful presidential campaign, doesn’t count because she did it for President Trump in 2016. She sounds like a strong woman to me. And a positive role model for young women.

naomi wolfFEMINIST ICON NAOMI WOLF ENDORSES DONALD TRUMP. Among her comments: “He’s being more inclusive”“He’s speaking out to the concerns of black people, white people, Puerto Rican people, Hispanic people of all kinds, women, men, it doesn’t matter”.    Win or lose, Trump has shown that fighting back against slander from Democrat media outlets needs to be done.
