(1015) Cold and windy, had a cold attack again earlier … old codgers need to stay warm 24/7. I have some big screenshots today and other items not for a “roundup”, plus some for a roundup. The eagle-eyed will have noticed a feature post on Old Ireland (colourised) and it loaded fine … all good. Tested it … prats insisted we “sign-in” to their “community” to watch. Goodbye.

8. The rampant election fraud, the open lying

… the punishing of those calling it out, plus no way to redress it … it really must be addressed by some regulatory mechanism:

7. Views the shadow psychos don’t like

There is something totally out of kilter here when someone is treated this way over a viewpoint … is it really THAT threatening to the PTB?

(0639) Morning all … overslept and all lights were out this morning. On now though. (0840)

6. Storm report

Sticking with AP to keep it consistent HERE.

Toodles adds:

James….I need to do a follow up but I glanced at something earlier. According to the writer, our area was hit by a storm Sept. 26, 1958. It was a category 4 storm named Helene.

5. Ha ha, like it at TCW

THIS may come as a surprise, but behind the bluster of Donald J Trump is divine inspiration. The remarkable story of the 45^th President of the US began long before his birth. The year was 1919 and the setting Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis, where one of the worst tragedies in modern British history occurred.A thousand men from the sparsely populated Outer Hebridean terrain of Harris and Lewis (a single island divided by mountains) had died in the Great War. This was a significant loss of labour to the community, which worked hard to survive in a harsh climate. On New Year’s Eve 1918 the surviving soldiers were at last returning from their service on the Western Front.

4. That Ronald Reagan quote on Pelosi

The enemy, naturally, top of ggl rankings … Reuters etc. … has the first few pages of “debunkings” that Reagan ever said it and both Snopes and some Reagan library woman weigh in, in similar vein, using the old “could not find” gambit. Look the other way, say you searched thoroughly and “reluctantly” could find no reference. Means diddly squat.

Left pundits then move it one stage further and say it was never said by Reagan. Of course that means nothing at all. Samuel Johnson said many things to his scribe, many which made it into print. The Oxford Book of Quotations has many “attributed” quotes and that’s the most honest stance to take, provided of course that you have a name to attribute it to.

In this case, there’s not and so the quote is useless. And as a leftist on Quora asked … who cares about Reagan anyway? That’s really not the issue… the issue is how much of it is true. So what does ggl say?

Thomas Ludwig John D’Alesandro Jr. (August 1, 1903 – August 23, 1987) was an American politician who served as the 41st mayor of Baltimore from 1947 to 1959.

Uh huh … plus:

Nancy Pelosi was born in Baltimore, Maryland, to an Italian-Americanfamily. She was the only daughter and the youngest of six children of Annunciata M. “Nancy” D’Alesandro (née Lombardi)^[4] and Thomas D’Alesandro Jr.^[5] Her mother was born in Fornelli, Isernia, Molise, in Southern Italy, and immigrated to the U.S. in 1912;^[6] her father traced his Italian ancestry to Genoa, Venice and Abruzzo.^[5] When Pelosi was born, her father was a Democratic congressman from Maryland. He became Baltimore mayor seven years later.^[7][5][8]

Pelosi’s mother was also active in politics, organizing Democratic women and teaching her daughter political skills.^[9] Pelosi’s brother, Thomas D’Alesandro III, also a Democrat, was elected Baltimore City Council president and later served as mayor from 1967 to 1971.^[7]

Interesting thing is the link would not embed … kept saying “bad request” … you’re following all this I assume. Now note that this is all still enemy territory … haven’t even touched Gab or X on it yet. The prime issue is … is there prima facie cause to keep investigating the notion of c*rr*pt Balti**** politics … city hall, not unlike Tammany Hall … or is there not the slightest reason to dive more deeply?

On the above, given her own subsequent behaviour, there’s plent of reason to deep dive. For example:

“In July, Paul Pelosi, the husband of Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, sold over $500,000 of Visa stock, two months before the Justice Department launched an antitrust lawsuit against the credit card company.”

That’s part of it … there was this too:

Now the issue of one day before or two months before is not all that relevant … DJT is taking an enormous risk if it was not one day before, so our stance here is let’s wait till Pelosi sues Trump to see if she has a case or not. If she does, I’m happy to take down the post item here, along with grovelling apology, along with anything nasty I’ve ever written about Baltimore being corrupt … for all we know, it might be a paragon of virtue.
