Trump broke them: Antifa model says she’s going to evict parents from home after they voted for Trump

The left are losing it over the majority of Americans voting to re-elect Trump.

While we watched the economy tank, inflation rise, illegals and fentanyl pour across our unprotected border under the Biden/Harris administration, the media had progressives believe that Project 2025 (supposedly Trump’s plan) is going to end the USA as they know it.

Legacy media scared women so much they now want to disown anyone who didn’t vote their way – including their parents. From the Daily Mail:

Antifa model says she’s going to evict parents from home after they voted for Donald Trump

“An ‘anti-fascist’ OnlyFans model says she’s planning on evicting her parents after they voted for Donald Trump. Merrick DeVille went viral on X after she shared that she no longer wants a relationship with her MAGA parents in the wake of Trump’s election win last week. 

‘My parents are downstairs right now – in the house I moved us into and whose bills I pay, watching TV,’ the avowed socialist wrote on X on Monday.

‘They happily voted for Trump. I don’t know how to be anything other than angry. 6 more months on the lease and every day already I am more angry.’

DeVille, who lives in Austin, Texas, claimed her parents’ vote was an attack on her, saying it was ‘like they spat in her face.’

‘They know I have extensive reproductive health issues. They know access to BC (birth control) is the only thing between me and regular hospital visits. They know Trump is a fascist, they don’t even like him,’ she added. ‘They voted for him anyway.’

After realizing her post had gone viral, DeVille thanked supporters and then spoke to the ‘people suggesting [she is] a controlling monster for being upset that [her] parents just voted to make [her] job illegal and hurt my healthcare.’

DeVille then appeared to backtrack, claiming her parents have other living options and would not be left on the street when she kicks them out. ‘I don’t know what I’m going to do yet,’ she wrote.”

Girl, you better get some mental healthcare services. One cannot go through life with so much hate. And one day honey, your parents are going to be gone. Love them (and their right to vote as they see fit) while you have such little precious time in this life with them.

Coping strategy? Psychiatrist tells dems to disown Trump-voting family members

This sounds perfectly normal and healthy. Not.

From Daily Mail:

“A Yale psychiatrist told MSNBC host Joy Reid that it’s fine to disown family members who voted for Trump.  

Dr. Amanda Calhoun, a child psychiatry fellow at the Ivy league school, made the comments during an interview on Reid’s show The Reid Out Friday, while discussing coping strategies for people upset by Trump’s election win. 

‘There is a societal norm that if somebody is your family that they are entitled to your time and I think the answer is absolutely not,’ Calhoun said.

‘So if you are going into a situation where you have family members, where you have close friends, who you know have voted in ways that are against you, against your livelihood, it’s completely fine to not be around those people and to tell them why. ‘To say, “I have a problem with the way that you voted because it went against my very livelihood and I’m not going to be around for this holiday. I have to take space for me.’

Reid had asked the psychiatrist for advise on how to interact with Trump supporters.

‘If you are an LGBTQ person and you know someone in your family voted essentially against your rights, or you’re a woman knowing, you know, that this man was calling people the b word,’ Reid said.

‘JD Vance was literally calling Kamala Harris “the trash.” He said, “We’re going to take out the trash.”

‘I know a lot of black women were incredibly triggered by that.’

Calhoun previously made headlines last year when she said doctors should be forced to wear body cameras to catch the racist ones.”

Trump has broken them. All of ’em.

Gonna keep your promise? Celebs who said they’d leave the US if Trump elected

Hopefully a few of them will make good on their promises to leave!

From Daily Mail:

“A host of celebrities have long been vocal in their opposition to Donald Trump taking office making some bold promises of their own along way: if Trump won, they were out.

The reactions have ranged from playful hyperbole to what sounded like solemn pledges, yet as the dust settles on another Trump election win, will the stars settle into their multimillion-dollar homes on American soil, or leave the country for good?

Following Trump’s victory, dozens of prominent names in the entertainment industry were vocal about their sadness, anger and frustration, but none appeared to be looking for their passports ahead of his upcoming term as the 47th president.

The View’s Whoopi Goldberg, a notable critic of Trump’s political career, refused to acknowledge Trump by name on Wednesday’s broadcast of the ABC chat show. ‘He’s the president,’ Goldberg said. ‘I’m still not going to say his name – that’s not going to change. In the lead-up to the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Goldberg also expressed strong opposition to Trump’s candidacy, saying on The View, ‘Maybe it’s time for me to move, you know. I can afford to go.’

Cher she had more cosmic aspirations: In June 2015, she tweeted, ‘If he were to be elected, I’m moving to Jupiter,’ but did not appear to have relocated in the years following, in which Trump was elected to office and served.

Cher in October 2023 told The Guardian that she suffered health issues as result of Trump’s previous term, and said this time she was determined to relocate from the U.S. under Trump’s leadership. ‘I almost got an ulcer the last time,’ said Cher. ‘If he gets in, who knows? This time I will leave.’ (As of Wednesday evening, Cher had not said anything since Trump’s election on her social media platforms in regards to her plans.)

Girls creator Lena Dunham told an audience in 2016 that she would ‘100 percent move to Canada’ while appearing at the Matrix Awards in April of 2016 in New York City, the CBC reported.  She said: ‘I know a lot of people have been threatening to do this, but I really will … I know a lovely place in Vancouver and I can get my work done from there.’ Her sincerity seemed real at the time, yet Dunham is still very much in the United States, continuing her work in entertainment and advocacy.

Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston said in a late 2016 interview with The Bestseller Experiment podcast, declaring he ‘would definitely move’ to Vancouver, British Columbia if Trump defeated Clinton. ‘It’s not real to me that that would happen. I hope to God it won’t. It wouldn’t be a vacation. I’d be an expatriate.’ After Trump was elected, Cranston, who publicly endorsed Harris, walked back his statement on Twitter.”

Don’t hold your breath that any of ’em will actually move.

They have more fun with their temper trantums.

Election Day 2024: Pray for minimal shenanigans

The big day is here, folks. Time to take America back from the commies!

Pray that #thesteal will not happen again. There have already been shenanigans with ballots/voting happening in Fulton County (GA), Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, and Colorado. Shocker, not.

Never underestimate the crookedness of the the left to hold on to their power.

Get out and vote today! And pray that a Trump win is too big to rig.

Stop the 2024 steal: Vote in-person if you can!

Demorats are getting nervous. With November 5 coming soon and Kamala trailing, they are getting desperate. Check out what’s already happening:

In Clark County, Washington (and Oregon) drop off ballots boxes are being ignited:

In Virginia Gov. Youngkin is having to go to the SCOTUS to remove noncitizens from their voter roll:

Virginia asks US Supreme Court to block order to reverse voter purge

From the story: “A federal appeals court upheld a judge’s order for Virginia to temporarily halt its process to find registered voters suspected of being noncitizens — which recently changed under an executive order from Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) — and restore the roughly 1,600 registrations canceled since Aug. 7.”

Read the whole story here.

In Nevada:

Nevada Supreme Court Rules Mail-In Ballots without Postmarks Can Be Counted Three Days After Election

From the story: “Nevada’s Supreme Court on Monday ruled mail-in ballots without postmarks can be counted three days after Election Day. Nevada state law allows mail-in ballots with postmarks to be counted up to four days after Election Day. The Nevada Supreme Court on Monday ruled mail-in ballots with postmarks can be counted up to 4 days after the election and non-postmarked ballots can be counted up to 3 days after the election.”

Plenty of time for some un-postmarked, “mail-in” ballots to be dumped in the middle of the night.

The only way for Trump to win is to make his win “too big to rig.”

Vote in-person on November 5 if you can, especially if you live in a blue state. At this point, we cannot trust any blue state election process.

Engineering The World’s Longest Suspension Bridge

I use to work in the engineering field (marketing specialist) and have always had an interest in infrastructure/engineering. The Strait of Messina Bridge scheduled to begin construction next year, will be the world’s longest suspension bridge if they can get through several hurdles.

Located in Italy, the bridge will connect Torre Faro in Sicily with Villa San Giovanni in the Italian Peninsula. Many challenges need to be addressed including the impact of earthquakes, strong currents in the strait, concerns of disruption of bird migration routes, and even the infiltration of mafia groups!

From the YouTube video description:

“The Strait of Messina Bridge, once complete, will become the longest single-span suspension bridge. This ambitious project will take 6 years to complete and aims to connect Sicily to mainland Italy and Europe. However, this project has its own unique challenges; the bridge will be subject to high winds and earthquakes that have never been witnessed at a bridge site before. From the design to the construction process, we will uncover the fascinating details behind this ambitious project. Whether you’re a bridge enthusiast, an engineering student, or simply curious about large-scale infrastructure, this video will provide you with a captivating insight into the world of civil engineering.”

Read more about the bridge here.

This will be quite the engineering feat if they are succesful in their design and construction. Course I don’t think I’d want to drive over this bridge on a windy day!

Later this week: Biggest supermoon of the year

This Thursday we’ll have a chance to see “Hunter’s Moon,” the biggest supermoon of the year. According to the Farmer’s Almanac, the October full moon will be the “biggest and brightest” supermoon of the year.

The supermoon will happen on Thursday, October 17, reaching peak illumination at 7:26 a.m.  “It will be below the horizon, so wait until sunset to watch it rise and take its place in the sky,” the Farmer’s Almanac states.

The Farmer’s Almanac explains that the name most likely originates from the fact that the October full moon was a signal for hunters to prepare for winter by going hunting to stock up on food.

According to NASA: “The next full Moon will be Thursday morning, Oct. 17, 2024, at 7:26 a.m. EDT. This will be late Wednesday night for the International Date Line West time zone and early Friday morning from New Zealand Time eastwards to the International Date Line. The Moon will appear full for about three days around this time, from Tuesday evening through Friday morning.”

You can read more about the supermoon on NASA’s website here.

Happy viewing!

Inflation hits McDonald’s suppliers: French fry supplier to close plant in WA

Inflation has hit all Americans hard during the Biden-Harris administration. It’s about to hit employees at a Lamb Weston plant in Connell, Washington, too.

From Yahoo:

A major french fry supplier is cutting jobs as customers continue to count their pennies amid inflated prices at fast-food chains.

Lamb Weston, the largest producer of french fries in North America, announced last week it was closing its plant in Connell, Washington, meaning 375 employees, or 4% of its workforce, would be laid off, according to an earnings report released last week.

“Restaurant traffic and frozen potato demand, relative to supply, continue to be soft, and we believe it will remain soft through the remainder of fiscal 2025,” Tom Werner, Lamb Weston president and CEO, said last week on an earnings call.

Fast-food chains have felt the consequences of inflation as cash-strapped customers have been more careful about patronizing many restaurants. A survey in May revealed that 80% of Americans considered fast food to be a “luxury” because of high prices.”

Read the whole story here.

Inflation has hit us hard, indeed. According to a CBS News price tracker report from last month, since 2019 to to August 2024 potatoes (by the pound) have increased by 34%, a dozen eggs by 126%, and a loaf of bread by 54%. These price increases are unsustainable for the average American.

Remember wisely as you vote next month. Because things could get much, much worse:

Progressive policies in action: Seattle Police won’t respond to alarm calls without “supporting evidence”

Thanks to the liberals’ “Defund the Police” movement in 2020 and BLM’s campaign to disparage police, the Seattle Police Department has lost more than 700 officers in the past five years and is at its lowest staffing level since the 1990s.

The consequences of this? From Fox 13 Seattle:

Seattle Police: Officers won’t respond to burglary alarm calls without evidence

From the article:

“A triggered alarm system at a property in Seattle will soon require more information to get an officer’s attention. Seattle Police Department (SPD) announced a new policy for responding to alarm calls.

SPD’s interim police chief, Sue Rahr, announced the updated standards in a letter dated Sept. 13. She wrote that, beginning Oct. 1, “SPD will only dispatch officers to calls from alarm companies with supporting evidence, such as audio, video, panic alarms or eyewitness evidence that a person is illegally entering or attempting to enter a residence or commercial property.”

“The challenge with that is it’s only two weeks’ notice. We have to notify all of our customers, we have to change how we monitor those alarms, we have to change dispatchers on how they respond to alarms in Seattle,” said Woodman. “We’ve been told that [SPD] has been working on this for eight months, but they never reached out to the industry or the monitoring companies. So, we are asking that they now work with us and just give us some more time.” 

Woodman and others from Washington Alarm gave public comment on Tuesday during Seattle City Council’s Public Safety Committee meeting and full council meeting. They voiced their concerns, not only about the short notice from SPD, but also the impact on customers who don’t have audio or visual capabilities on their systems.

“Law enforcement and the security industry can work together to come up with a solution that benefits our customers in a way that doesn’t leave them stranded and vulnerable at the most dangerous moment,” said Ashley Barber of Washington Alarm.

“Our fear is that the business owner or building owner is going to go down to that building and see what is going on. And with no police there, we could potentially be in a dire situation if there’s actual criminal activity going on at the property and they don’t have police to back them up,” said Woodman. “Other cities that have done this [have seen] the crime has gone up. And we certainly already have an issue in the city of Seattle with crime, and we would not want to see crime go up.”

Yeah, don’t hold your breath waiting for the police in Seattle to back you up. That isn’t how most of us roll:

Alas, in demorat-run Seattle your options are limited. They never learn, do they?
