The results of Tuesday’s elections across the United States were a comprehensive and broad punch in the gut for Democrats. But the morons (thank God) don’t seem to have gotten the message. The American public is fed up with the Democrats opening the border to illegal aliens, running up prices while screwing up the supply chain, labeling parents as terrorists for protesting the abominable racist policy of Critical Race Theory and letting crime run rampant.
Gateway Pundit’s Joe Hoft already gave you a great rundown on the Republican sweep of the Governor, Lt. Governor and Attorney General slots in Virginia (Virginia Republicans Not Only Win Big Statewide Races, the House Also Turns Red – Gain Seven Seats from Democrats)
This was not an isolated fluke. Results in some of the bluest districts and states tells a similar story:
Texas district that went for Biden in 2020 flipped to Republican.
A Republican managed to flip a Democratic-held Texas state House seat Tuesday in a district that President Joe Biden won in November by 14 points. . . Republican John Lujan defeated Democrat Frank Ramirez 51 percent to 49 percent on Tuesday to take the Texas House District 118 race, The Texas Tribune reported.
Minnesota rejected defund police.
Minneapolis residents Tuesday voted down a measure that would have removed the city’s police department and replaced it with a Department of Public Safety.
New Jersey–Besides the Republican candidate for Governor getting robbed of a victory, there were other surprises:
Democrat Stephen Sweeney, the second-most powerful elected politician in the Garden State, is trailing behind Republican Edward Durr, a relatively unknown challenger.
New York City and Long Island
While I’m glad that arrogant and opportunistic Terry McAuliffe lost, I’m having trouble getting excited about some uber-rich finance guy from the Carlyle Group as governor. And I don’t expect the Robert E. Lee statue will be returned to its rightful place, where it stood for over a century.*
We have the oligarchs and Deep State running this country (Empire) and U.S. military planners like this gaming out wars with China (we’ve had preemptive wars, can we have preemptive surrenders?):

I am not rich but am less prejudiced against them than you and willing to give the man a chance. I am concerned that the Republicans do not control the state senate. I doubt that the people of Richmond deserve to have Lee’s statue brought back. And, it was cut up in pieces.
We don’t need fights over symbols right now; just substance. The rest will follow.
Er, on those exercises ZH might have been leaving out a few bits – “The US were eventually defeated by a British long-range commando assault supported by fighter jets.”
The Lee quote is good. I only take two sites seriously. One of course is the Colonel’s. The other is run by my Brexit Guru, Richard North. That one is more or less unmoderated so is under spirited assault from assorted European continentals; all convinced to a man that the EU is the solution to all our woes.
This should sort them out – “The consolidation of the states into one vast empire, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of ruin which has overwhelmed all that preceded it.”.
Beats wearisome disquisitions on Target 2 balances or Fiscal Transfer by a country mile. Thanks for the quote.
Apparently the original quote is “One vast republic”. Still works.
Larry,
As seen in New Jersey the pre-loaded votes weren’t enough so by a magicical glitch and late counting 40,000 ballots appear, just in time to give Murphy a win! (In a D+20 state he was allegedly ahead in polling the entire time). It’s getting harder to cover up the corruption. Meanwhile Barrack’s best trainee does exactly like Barack would do: Biden doubles down to change the narrative and further attack the American middle class with his unconstitional OSHA directive finally being put out. I’m sure you don’t need to wonder why they waited until after the election to do that. In further “nothing to see here, move along” news:

It gets worse from there, too. At least none of the 800 private jets flew to the “climate change” conference polluted the Earth. If only they could do a zoom call like America’s school children……
Work still to be done: Royal Limeys dunk woke US Jarheads in desert war games. US Marines needed a time out for their transgender hormone shots, so they surrendered by half time.

Tale of two cities from California: Non-partisan mayor won on potholes, public safety and cleaning up vagrant camps. He got 7000 votes.
One democrats machine city council won her city district claiming voters supported climate change, working families and affordable housing. She got 1000 votes.
City of 90,000 – voter turn out, due to long standing Democrat machine turn-off was dismal. But at least the good guy won at the top and he gets to set the council agenda.
