Disturbing and ominous!

I haven’t heard much of “camps” in the US. Have heard of planning, stockpiling etc. but no large operational camps where citizens are housed.

ipso facto @ 16:05….WOW, How did you know? You must be psycho!! BOTH!!

She’s usually not so klutzy. LOL!!

Kidding aside, I’m a lucky guy to have such an attentive partner. It sure makes all the difference getting through these tough and stressful times.

Have you heard anything like this on your side of the border? Sounds like FEMA camps to me!

D’oh! How frustrating would that be … to watch your account being looted and not be able to do anything!

Robinhood Users Say Accounts Were Looted, No One to Call

(Bloomberg) — It took Soraya Bagheri a day to learn that 450 shares of Moderna Inc. had been liquidated in her Robinhood account and that $10,000 in withdrawals were pending. But after alerting the online brokerage to what she believed was a theft in progress, she received a frustrating email.

The firm wrote it would investigate and respond within “a few weeks.” Now her money is gone.

Bagheri is among five Robinhood customers who recounted similar experiences to Bloomberg News, saying they’ve been left in limbo in recent weeks after someone sold their investments and withdrew funds. Because the wildly popular app has no emergency phone number, some said they tried in vain to intervene, only to watch helplessly as their money vanished.

lol It’s the label thing I guess. I think guys do it too but with machines and maybe Levi’s.
What’s wrong with making your own car or other machines of you can get American parts. Same thing no longer made in the US.
The only one that they didn’t mind was my g grandmother because she was wanted all over the world by the elite.
Years after she died a elite Hungarian woman from Canada with duel citizenship asked me if I had any of her Hungarian dresses. The Hungarians would gladly pay for it. I wound up with one a but a bit faded now. I will probably donate it to the Hungarians.
Bringing back memories I remember my mom saying making pleats were a bitch.
In those days they were more popular.
I’m glad I got in in time with the elders to learn to make things homemade. From Hungarian to American. Boxes cakes et all came out but they still made them by scratch including noodles. For some reason that didn’t temp them. Just store bought cloths and new home cooking and washing gadgets even newer sewing machines. Some never bothered with dishwashers. By then they didn’t have kids in the house anymore though anyways.

Treefrog@13:57, I’ll take a stab at it….

North Dakota has more traffic accidents to call Covid deaths?

ipso, we have Grizzly bears around here and she suggested we go for a hike….

Posted by silverngold @ 14:54 on October 10, 2020  

Think there could be any connection?????? ;o)

Posted by treefrog @ 13:57 on October 10, 2020  
TODAY IS THE 195TH DAY OF “TWO WEEKS TO FLATTEN THE CURVE.”
if mitigation, social distancing, and masks work, can anyone tell me why north dakota (which bought into the hysteria) has a one third HIGHER covid death rate than south dakota (which did not)?
n.d. – 421 covid deaths / million population
s.d. – 313 covid deaths / million population
(figures as of 10-10-2020 worldometers.info )
…or why the u. s. has 660/mil.pop. versus sweden at 583/mil.pop?

Nice one from 83 y/o Dad this am Alligator story

Posted by Buygold @ 10:14 on October 10, 2020  

Florida woman slows 12 ft gator with .22 pistol!
Florida Woman Slows Alligator attack using just a small 22 caliber Ruger Pistol. Another good reason to have a concealed weapons permit.
This is a story of self-control and marksmanship by a brave, cool-headed woman with a small pistol against a fierce predator.
Here’s her story in her own words: “While walking along the edge of a pond just outside my house in the Villages discussing a property settlement with my soon-to-be ex-husband, and other divorce issues, we were surprised by a huge 12-ft alligator which suddenly emerged from the murky water. It began charging us with its large jaws wide open. She must have been protecting her nest because she was extremely aggressive.”
“If I had not had my little Ruger .22 caliber pistol with me, I would not be here today! Just one shot to my estranged husband’s knee was all it took. The gator got him easily, and I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace. The amount I saved in lawyer’s fees was really incredible and his life insurance was also a big bonus!”

Trafalgar – the only poll that matters and was right in 2016?

Posted by Buygold @ 9:22 on October 10, 2020  

https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1343305/US-election-poll-donald-trump-coronavirus-covid-joe-biden-exclusive-polling

Which brings us to the punchline, and what Trafalgar sees as the outcome on Nov 3. In a nutshell, based on Trafalgar swing state polls, Trumps wins with 275 electoral votes:

What about the the “winner” in the 2016 polling fiasco, the Democracy Institute, and its Latest Poll for September:

  • Only asks likely voters, and asks about so-called ‘shy votes’.
  • Trump leads Biden 46%-45%, nationally.
  • Trump leads in swing states (FL, IA, MI, MN, PA, WI) 47% to 43%.
  • Trump’s swing state leads would give him 320 electoral votes, and Biden 218.
  • 77% of Trump voters would not admit to friends and family.
  • Amy Coney Barrett nomination has little impact on approximately 8 in 10 voters.
  • Law and order is top issue (32%). Economy is second (30%).
  • Voters trust Trump more on economy than Biden: 60% to 40%, respectively

But wait, there’s more shocks, because according to Camelot, Republicans are also likely to retain their control of the Senate.

  • Current Senate makeup is 53 Republicans and 47 Democrats and Independents.
  • 35 Senate seats up for grabs.
  • 23 seats are held by Republicans; 12 held by Democrats.
  • Republicans at disadvantage; need to protect more seats.
  • Most vulnerable incumbents are in: Alabama (Jones-D), Colorado (Gardner-R), Maine (Collins-R), Michigan (Peters-D).
  • Assuming Trump polling in these four states will determine the Senate race: Republicans likely to pick up AL, Democrats likely to pick up CO and Maine – for net gain of one seat in Senate.
  • Outlier Scenarios: Trafalgar polling shows Republican in Michigan (John James) with slight lead; and Democrat in North Carolina with slight lead.
  • Likely November: Republicans keep Senate control with 52 seats.

Finally, in what may be the worst possible news for markets which are now convinced a blue sweep is inevitable, Camelot says that Democrats will continue their dominance in the House, where they have a clear advantage:

  • 2016: RealClearPolitics Average had Democrats +0.6 near Election Day -> Final was Republicans +1.1 -> GOP lost 6 seats; maintained majority 241-194
  • 2018: RealClearPolitics Average had Democrats +7.3 near Election Day -> Final was Democrats +8.4 -> Democrats gained 41 seats; retook majority 235-199
  • 2020: RealClearPolitics Average has Democrats +6.0 during the last week.

Readers curious for more can register for the next Camelot call, which will take place next Tuesday, Oct 13 at the following link.

I’m no fan of Lindsay Graham, but despite the media trying to make it a tight race in SC – there’s no way Harrison beats Graham. Unfortunately, Graham is the only option Republicans have there and when they come out in droves for Trump, they’ll check the box for Graham as well.

This mail-in voting is the only thing that makes me nervous. Otherwise, I think Trump wins in a landslide.
