Donald Trump Wins 2024 Presidential Election
November 6th, 2024Via: New York Post:
Trump, 78, was on course for an Electoral College landslide over Vice President Kamala Harris after he reversed his 2020 losses in the crucial states of Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin — running up big margins among his white rural and working class base while making significant inroads among ethnic minorities.
Widespread Voting Problems Reported in Two Heavily Republican Pennsylvania Counties
November 5th, 2024Via: New York Post:
Election officials have confirmed widespread problems with voting machines and software on Election Day in two heavily Republican counties in the critical swing state of Pennsylvania.
…
“The Cambria County Board of Election learned early this morning that a software malfunction in the County’s Electronic Voting System has prevented voters from scanning their ballots,” Cambria County Solicitor Ron Repak said in a statement.
…
Election officials have filed emergency paperwork seeking to extend the voting time by two hours to 10 p.m. to rectify the issue and ensure all ballots are counted, according to the petition filed in county court.
A court order seeks to extend the voting time to 10 p.m., two hours past the 8 p.m. deadline for the rest of the state, a GOP source told The Post.
Pennsylvania is perhaps the most important swing state in the election, with both Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris campaigning in Cambria’s largest city, Johnstown.
Nathan Anderson, an IT specialist from Johnstown, said he ran into issues at his voting site when he cast his ballot for Trump this morning.
He said a poll worker put his ballot in a lock box until it can be scanned, but Anderson admitted he had reservations about the issue.
“I was able to turn in my ballot, whether or not it gets scanned, I’ll never know to be honest,” he said.

Washington Activates National Guard, Oregon “Standing Ready”, Heading Into Election Day
November 4th, 2024Via: ZeroHedge:
Washington Governor Jay Inslee is activating the Washington National Guard ahead of election day, according to KING 5, and neighboring state Oregon isn’t far behind.
The action by the governor follows two recent ballot box arsons in Portland and Vancouver, Washington, in late October, which destroyed hundreds of ballots. Officials are still seeking a suspect.
Governor Inslee announced that some National Guard members will assist local law enforcement and the State Patrol, with the exact number yet to be decided.
Homeland Security has warned of potential political violence and threats to election infrastructure ahead of the 2024 General Election. Guard members will be on standby from Monday through Thursday night.
Lawmakers Want Answers from Pentagon Over Failure to Send Absentee Ballots to Active-Duty Service Members
November 4th, 2024Via: Bizpacreview:
Republican House lawmakers are demanding answers from the Pentagon over why some active duty military members have not received absentee ballots to vote in the 2024 election.
In a letter to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin from Reps. Brian Mast (R-FL), Bill Huizenga (R-MI), and Mike Waltz (R-FL), the congressmen express “grave concern over deficiencies in the Defense Department’s protocols” for the armed forces, saying that the stockpile of absentee ballots has been “depleted and had not been replenished.”
“Joe Biden & Kamala Harris are failing to facilitate the right to vote for our men and women in uniform,” Rep. Mast said in a post to X, sharing a copy of the letter. “I’m calling on the Pentagon to mobilize every resource necessary so our nation’s elite warriors don’t miss out on voting for the next commander-in-chief.”

Berkshire Dumps 100 Million Apple Shares As Unprecedented Selling Spree Boosts Cash To Record $325 Billion Dollars
November 3rd, 2024Via: ZeroHedge:
Back in August, when discussing Buffett’s ongoing liquidation of his Bank of America stake, we said that “Berkshire’s rising cash stockpiles merely reflect the firm’s inability to find deals in today’s overvalued and weak economic environment”, little did we know just how accurate that would be, because just one day later we and the rest of the market were stunned to learn that far from only dumping Bank of America, the 94-year-old Omaha billionaire had been busy quietly liquidating his most iconic holding in an unprecedented selling spree that sent Berkshire’s cash pile soaring by a record $88 billion to an all time high $277 billion at the end of Q2.
That was just the beginning, however, and this morning we subsequently learned that through the end of Q3, Berkshire’s unprecedented cash build continued, and the world’s largest conglomerate added another $48 billion to its cash – through both “harvesting” (i.e., selling of existing holdings) and cash from operations, taking it to a record $325.2 billion, or nearly a quarter trillion in cash. As shown for context in the chart below, Berkshire has nearly doubled its cash holdings from $168 billion at the start of the year to a staggering $325 billion 9 months later, up 94%!
“They Are Scrubbing the Internet Right Now”
November 3rd, 2024Via: Brownstone Institute:
Instances of censorship are growing to the point of normalization. Despite ongoing litigation and more public attention, mainstream social media has been more ferocious in recent months than ever before. Podcasters know for sure what will be instantly deleted and debate among themselves over content in gray areas. Some like Brownstone have given up on YouTube in favor of Rumble, sacrificing vast audiences if only to see their content survive to see the light of day.
It’s not always about being censored or not. Today’s algorithms include a range of tools that affect searchability and findability. For example, the Joe Rogan interview with Donald Trump racked up an astonishing 34 million views before YouTube and Google tweaked their search engines to make it hard to discover, while even presiding over a technical malfunction that disabled viewing for many people. Faced with this, Rogan went to the platform X to post all three hours.
Navigating this thicket of censorship and quasi-censorship has become part of the business model of alternative media.
Those are just the headline cases. Beneath the headlines, there are technical events taking place that are fundamentally affecting the ability of any historian even to look back and tell what is happening. Incredibly, the service Archive.org which has been around since 1994 has stopped taking images of content on all platforms. For the first time in 30 years, we have gone a long swath of time – since October 8-10 – since this service has chronicled the life of the Internet in real time.
