USA: GOP and the electoral process

Something like 95% of all GOP running in the midterm are saying that the 2020 elections were stolen, in addition, they are already claiming that the 2022 midterm will be tainted and that there will be fraud on the part of the Democrats.

On the Sunday show, a well-known pollster indicated that he thinks that the 2022 midterm will take months to resolve who has won.  The reason is that in many cases the results will be close, and it has become the go-to solution for both parties (yes, the Democrats too) to say that the election process was tainted by voter fraud.

Even today most of those running for the GOP are saying that if they don't win the election has been stolen, and America, it seems is buying it.

However, this is only mildly interesting when you consider that in the midterm only about 40% of eligible voters bother to vote.  Nearly 60% of eligible voters cannot even be bothered to vote.  They simply don't care.  they pay lip service and say things about their country that they don't actually care about; they care about gun violence, but not enough to do something about it, they care about abortion rights, but again not enough to do something about it, they care about nothing except their latest Soap and Sports.  The rest of the world has this vision of America, that is sold on TV and in the movie that exists nowhere!

That's the real tragedy, Americans don't care about democracy at all!

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Tariffs on inhabited Island

 Two seldom-visited islands, part of Australia, saw a massive increase in the tariffs they will face when exporting to the United States.   The 32,000 residents did not have much to say...being Penguines.   NO kidding, massive tariffs were imposed on Heard Island and McDonald Islands.  According to the Australian government, the last visitor to Heard was about a decade ago.   Never mind the 47% tariff on Madagascar, where the principal export is Vanilla and the GDP per capita is less than $500 a year. Not only a Stable Genus but evidently an administration that took all of two hours to proof the list of countries.    They also treated St Pierre & Miquelon, two islands part of France in the middle of the St Lawrence Gulf...

Britain, France and Egypt

 The voters realize now that the Conservative Praty desire to return to 19th-century dominance has driven its hatred of the EU.  The voters realize now that departure from the EU has accelerated Britain's decline and may soon make it irrelevant.  At best it will have to kiss American arses to maintain its standing.  For this, the conservatives were punished.  The decline of Britain was inevitable, competition from Frankfurt and Germany in Finance was bound to grow.  The core of Europe (aka Germany) is aging quickly Macron seems to be winning his bet, the left alliance that won the legislative elections will not remain united for long, since they disagree on about everything.   The Far right though it was about to assume power is once again relegated to the back of the bus.   It may draw its own conclusions, but not all of these are good for France.  The far-right has won nearly 1/3rd of the electorate, that is not something to be ig...
