Trying to hide vote fraud makes it easier to detect. What data analysis will show of the 2020 US election.

 Patterns of voting fraud will stand out in data analysis.  Attempts to hide it afterwards will be even easier to spot.   Browse "Election Fraud Hotspots - 10% of the Data are 70% of the Fraud" by Jay Valentine.  The same patterns you find in insurance fraud will show in election fraud.  The bad actors will have recruited friends and family, not strangers to help them.   The faked votes have to match real names and addresses.

Imagine yourself trying to fake 100,000 ballots. Even with some of your pals, lots of them, sitting around tables with pizza and Cokes and #2 pencils, it’s daunting. Every ballot needs to tie to an address. Each ties to a name. This is fraud infrastructure.   While you and your friends are filling out 100,000 ballots with Biden circles, do you think you took the time to use a different, real address for every one of them? Or, more likely, did you use a small group of addresses over and over? You get the picture. 
If you filled out birth dates, did you use a different one every time you thought about it? How about those surnames? They are tied to real people and they better live in Pennsylvania.      
We are getting reports some Secretaries of State are modifying mail-in ballot data to hide the tens of thousands of ballots received before they were sent. 
This is a very bad idea.   .......  We are thrilled people are trying to alter data after the fact. They are leaving tracks like a dinosaur walking through a field of peanut butter.

He goes on to give examples.  There are many signs to spot and many volunteers poring over data already available.

Racism Explained, as the meme goes.

A surgeon wrote that we all look about the same on the operating table, under the skin.
A single organ, the skin, is the biggest information sheet about ourselves.


 

Full Self Driving Car Beta Test in the City: Decide for yourself

 This 13 minute video of real city conditions is awesome and scary at the same time. You follow two drivers in the cab, a display screen, and the straightaways between major decision points are speeded up. Think "Google Voice" five years ago.  A half dozen frightening and puzzling car decisions are embedded in a cautious but nearly flawless execution of other moves.  The men think FSD may be reasonably safe in a suburb but not downtown.  (h/t  smalldeadanimals, sourced at Road and Track).

Does the US have a president? Decide for yourself. Lost man opens mouth while propped before camera.



If you want more, Biden said at the same viewing, "The US should return to the type of filibuster that existed when I came to the senate 120 years ago".  Search to hear this painful clip too.  

If I were China or Iran, I'd be focused on quickly. pushing all boundaries.  Or Russia.  Or North Korea.  Or anyone who smells blood in the water.  I wouldn't want to be living in Taiwan just now.

Power play by a Covid Scold crashes spectacularly in front of Cruz.

Supreme Court Is Part Of The Gentry Class

 "The Supreme Court, like the rest of the judiciary, is fundamentally a Gentry Class institution no matter who appoints its members. That’s why non-textual rights, like abortion, that are important to the Gentry Class get more solicitude than textual rights, like the right to arms, that are not."

Interracial violence: Who's doing it?

Who is attacking whom?   Number 1: Blacks on Whites.  Number 2  Hispanics on Whites.  Number 3 is Whites on Hispanic.Smallest group is Hispanics on Blacks.  Second smallest is Whites on Blacks.  The differences are immense.    The TV and the papers and the politicians pick on just one (White on Black) and ignore the 9 times greater attacks in reverse, Black on White.  They tell it backward.  That means to me, "They are lying".  Remember, this chart is for "Incidents" and doesn't give a rate.  The black communities are smaller than the white ones in America.   Race doesn't cause the different incident totals but it determines what gets reported.


 

Unamiguous Evidence From Wuhan Social Media: Covid-19 started in Wuhan on a couple streets between the two virus research centres.

The first people who sought help from Covid-19 or the Wuhan Flu are mapped.  The City of Wuhan map below shows the first intense cluster from before January 20 2020 was on a couple streets between the two virus research sites. (There was a second site nearby).  The fish market and other early reporting incidents are few in number and scattered far.   The article claims the people in the scattered reports had visited that same two street area.

UPDATE:  The above is from Gateway Pundit's report but it links to an underlying  China-sourced document with extended documentation.  It is published at mdpi as "Exploring Urban Spatial Features of COVID-19 Transmission in Wuhan Based on Social Media Data". (Peng,Wang, Liu and Wu).The data was collected incidental to a larger study and is based on geotags of the people who voluntarily went online to ask for help. (The larger study looks at ages of the reporting patients, and the distribution of cases at later dates, again relying on geotags and cellular phone location data.) During the early spread, medical resources were overstretched and many turned to social media Sina Weibo which built an on-line medical help channel.   This is the only tightly documented mapping I have seen of the early virus spread.


The triptych is from the study, showing Wuhan-based flu social media mapping in three different time frames.  The one on the left covers Dec 20 to Jan 22nd and is reproduced in greater detail below as printed by Gateway Pundit.  The red dot is the notorious sea food market.  The Black Star is the Wuhan institute so often in the news.  The yellow square is a lesser know virus research location near  the former.



Coming Soon: China's Population Smaller Than US Population (Chang)

"China this century is on track to experience history’s most dramatic demographic collapse in the absence of war or disease. Today, the country has a population more than four times larger than America’s. By 2100, the U.S. will probably have more people than China."

The fertility rate is falling fast and stats at every level of governance are fudged to hide it.
The current population and wealth of the nation and surplus of young men mean risks of war are at their peak now, not later.    This is an important article by Gordon Chang.  Flag the topic and watch for corroboration.

Migraine Fix Is Nearer. Watch 3 D molecule explanation.

 Migraine is unlike other headaches and not linked to blood flow.  Instead it stems from signal molecules housed in the the fifth cranial nerve, the trigeminal nerve.  The target molecule is a pain receptor and it's motion can be dampened by a second molecule (CGRP) which allows a couple other types to hitch onto the pain target.  Watch the 3D visualization.  The whole sequence is now understood pretty much at the level of an individual atom.  Next up is a fix to break the chain that binds pain messengers to the target molecule.  Soon!   (Below is an image, not a video, because it's in PIP format.  The link has the PIP video.)

McConnell Makes More in the Minority Selling Votes Than in the Majority Buying Votes.

 This opinion is presented and scrutinized at Conservative Tree House.

"McConnell does not fear being in the minority; the color of the flag atop the spire of the UniParty senate does not matter to those underneath it. McConnell maneuvers with just as much power in the minority as he does in the majority; factually, he makes more money selling his DeceptiCon caucus votes to Chuck Schumer (on behalf of Wall Street) than he does in the majority where he is forced to purchase them."
