Over the course of the midterm election cycle, I noticed some stories from Arizona Democrats grumbling that Krysten Synema was doing no campaigning on behalf of Arizona Democrats, their implication being something like — she’s in it for herself, and is getting the corporate money and running. The question I had was — given her poll numbers amongst her party, did the various Democratic candidates want her? I suppose there was some theoretical room for some theoretical candidate who needed a mass of Republican leaning votes, but it would have to be a damper on any “get out the base” vote on her surrogacy.
She knows the poll numbers. She won’t win a Democratic primary, so she bolts. Just as Arlen Specter did. For rhetorical positioning she can’t step in as a Republican, but I guess the party may just clear the way for her. I don’t know the politics enough to know if her path in a Republican primary is done — we have multiple conservative Democrat switchers who got tagged as socialists and dragged for party line votes in Republican primaries — but then on the other gand… Who is Trump?
What is fascinating is that she did not do this before the Georgia run-off. The “senate in the balance” may be a winning line to sway the electorate — voting as they did for all statewide Republicans not named Walker. But then, I am not entirely certain at the end Herschel Walker was in it — and if asked for such help from Sinema would have just as soon asked for a delay so he could quietly exit on election day (as against the Trump — Lake line of thinking any election that goes against them is invalid). But that is just conjecture.
Update: I initially saw a mistaken report that she was going to caucus with the Republicans. But I guess not. She is Lieberman. She did a Joe Manchhin before Joe Manchin had a chance to — and with less theoretical benefit for the Democrats on the premise — he who said if it’ll help I’ll drop the name Democrat so I can continue to oppose where I do.
… By any reasonable reading of platforms, the Green Party sits opposed to Larouche inc with a greener newer deal than anything any Democrat has, but — Hey! They oppose Ukraine aid so why not?
A curious question on the common phrase, this applied to Sam Sedar who apparently keeps a watch on Jimmy Dore. Is the user trying to make their case for Jimmy Dore’s insignificance?
Nick Brana at next Schiller Institute meet:Awesome, now Dore’s “People’s Party” is herding people into LaRouche recruitment sessions … … … Hilarious how all these dorks hopped onto the LaRouche payroll almost overnight, really want to know where their cash infusion came from
Another thing a Diane Sare campaign gets her, even with non-existent votes, is an in with ex RT America host now podcaster Lee Camp. Looking at his Wikipedia page, it appears just a tad in his describing his show as not getting Russian censorship government or direction — or at the least it is just his personal choice in shutting down guest comments on the Russian government.
And Sputnik of Russian state media does not appear to know the insignificance of the title “ex Senate Candidate“.
Anyways, Louis on the sidewalk had “Lyndon Larouche was right!” and “Bring Back Trump!” and seemed very agitated, and so very very very out of place in the perma-bougie nouveau-riche Premium Mediocre oasis that is Los Gatos, where middle aged and boomer folks with too much disposable income waste it on very milquetoast fashion choices and bland conversations about bond markets and where to get a good eyebrow threading by someone who speaks English good.

To see this gaudy-ass fringe protest dullard do an intense 1000 inch stare between a Thai Restaurant and a Charles Schwab office was bizarre, but seemed like a strange distillation of the id of so many citizens right now:
Conspiratorially transfixed, paranoid, willfully daft AF, but mostly looking dangerously like the political equivalent to a septugenarian incel with a coupon for Paul’s Gun and Grenade Emporium he’s waiting to use.
A little bit like the dilemma with The Onion, where nothing much existed beyond the headline. The lactose intolerance plot story is flat. This proclamation against Pokemon has the problem of being within Larouche literature history. The British Spanking Controversy gives the author away as being interested off of Larouche adjacent partial purveyors of the messages. I guess the highlight is THE SEXUAL IMPOTENCE OF BOB THE BUILDER — showing a knowledge of the history.
The one thing about Kari Lake and Donald Trump as against the Larouchies on this matter — see Trump here — Lake and Trump at least won over 40 percent of the vote.
Question: what other cults “infiltrated” the Democratic Party? And seeing that I myself wouldn’t consider the handful of nominations of Larouchies over the years does not count as infiltration, what is your threshold for “infiltration”?
On this question: How the heck did a crazy LaRoucheite get 34.9% ?
Space Larouche and Geoff Young conciliatory enough to debate the great issues of the day — Trump v Desantis.
XIV. New Mexico
Trump fan, multiple criminal, Larouchite by way of Trump — the lpac linker … Trump just announced for 2024. I stand with him. I never conceded my HD 14 race. Now researching my options. Election results: 73.6 to 36.4
Why is he campaigning for a New Mexico seat in Michigan?
The story behind Caleb Maupin’s relationship with the Larouche movement. I have zero idea where Dore is going. So Caleb first joined with the LaRouche Movement during Occupy Wall street, and this is according to his then roommate or classmate, can’t remember the woman’s name. […]. if you notice Haz, Fox Green ect all claim to not know anything about LaRouche before joining the movement 2 weeks later. Waiting on Jimmy Dore to out himself.
Sigh. Mumia and Saab suck. i never have gotten enough on Peltier’s case to have a judgement, other than his cause always gets lumped in with Mumia’s so I automatically view it as suspect even if it might not be. Gawd, I hate this strain of the Left.
Australian Citizens Party , formerly the Citizens Electoral Council of Australia, is a minor political party in Australia affiliated with the LaRouche Movement which was led by American political activist and conspiracy theorist Lyndon LaRouche. Australian Citizens Party.
XIX. Couple Points from multiple directions
This is a mid-tier use of conspiracy theory. Not good, but there are damned worse. Have it in for Jim Jatras, and find him next to various others you have it in for, and spot A notion he takes a tad more seriously I myself may muse over from time to time.
The #NachDenkSeiten ask me why I write that the once left-wing blog is “going to the right” and “conspiracy ideology”. Serious? But of course I’m very happy to comply with this request. #Thread
I summarized a few points for the
@Volksverpetzer in October. It’s not just about praise for AfD positions on the war against Ukraine, but also about the anti-democratic #Forum in #Plauen :
The #NachDenkSeiten had acknowledged the work of the forum in Plauen in several articles, but they did not go into the alliances with Reich citizens, conspiracy ideologues and lateral thinkers.
Forum leader David Thiele mentioned just a few days ago in a video “our work in connection with reflection pages”, incidentally in the same breath as a reference to a cooperation with the “Schiller Institute” of the political sectarian Helga Zepp-LaRouche:
There are a number of more things to say about #Forum in #Plauen . The editor-in-chief of #NachDenkSeiten , Jens Berger, left my question – like all other questions – unanswered. So once again: Why does the blog make propaganda for right-wing extremists?
The thing is that the discussion on vampires versus werewolves would be a mildly amusing divergence if there were any substance to the candidate otherwise. I suppose there might be something to the fact that no movie appears to match Walker’s spiel, indicating he is blurring some lazily recalled media together — but that happens. Obama once mismatched Star Wars and Star Trek. But then that is one point — Obama did so when explaining how he nor nobody could get all that they want through a congressional system — Walker … Did he have a point?
