Option 1) The CHEAT will be so obvious when Kamaltoe is declared the winner. Yet, conservatives will NOT take up arms (nor Molotov cocktails) and storm major US cities (as did BLM) because they have too much to lose and they have learned that the Dems will "lock them up" just as they did innocent grandmothers on Jan 6th. They'll just accept it and hunker down financially in hopes of not going down with the economic catastrophe that is lurking. But their hunkering down will increase the collapse. The shitstorm will follow.
Option 2) The vote for Trump will indeed prove to be To Big To Rig and he will be declared the winner. But inauguration is still over 10 weeks later. Seeing the obvious, China will invade Taiwan and even worse, possibly initiate some kind of first strike against the US (perhaps a hack against the utility infrastructures vs anything militarily). The lame duck (and just lame in general) Biden administration will not risk going up against the (multi-million dollar) hand that has been feeding them and China will be allowed to overthrow Taiwan. The fallout in the US will open them to initiating Martial Law and the "peaceful transfer of power" will not happen. The Swamp will take control (as they have been all along, just now more brazenly). This too will usher in an economic catastrophe and shitstorm.
The ultimate goal is the economic collapse of the US and ending its position as the Superpower. Armageddon maybe? (Just not the one JWs preached about for 100+ years.)

10/31 New York Times, "They’re Giving Scammers All Their Money. The Kids Can’t Stop Them." Has Watchtower scammed your family?
by Balaamsass2 inthe seniors in our family were scammed by watchtower, for over 7 figures.
an interesting read today to give some insight.. one of the most egregious con-artists is watchtower bible and tract society the “legal” entity for jehovah’s witnesses.
many retired jehovah’s witnesses have been targeted over the years to “loan” money for various “special projects” to further the “preaching work”, only to find they are never to be repaid.

We wish to remind you that Jehovah's Witnesses believe in the Bible’s guidance that believers should limit contact with someone who has been removed from the congregation or has withdrawn (see, for example, 1 Corinthians 5:11-13). The exact extent of this limited contact will depend on each individual’s personal circumstances and conscience.
They forgot the assterisk *
* However if their individual personal circumstances and conscience does not move them to shun the person, they will also be "removed" resulting in their being shunned as well.

Searching
by Striker injude 1:9 (kjv) yet michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, the lord rebuke thee.. matthew 4:10 (kjv) then saith jesus unto him, get thee hence, satan: for it is written, thou shalt worship the lord thy god, and him only shalt thou serve.
.
.....my understanding is that you all believe jesus is michael the archangel....... the two verses above describe two different personalities..... the archangel in jude rebuked satan in the name of the father, because he knew it was not his place to rebuke him, he knew that he didn't have the authority to do so, that the only person who possesses this authority is god himself.... while jesus, in matthew 4:10, does not need to invoke the name of the father to rebuke satan, because the father and jesus are one, not michael and jesus..... .... because michael the archangel is not jesus christ our savior.....

The garbage truck photo op was BRILLIANT!
You have to give an attaboy to whoever on Trumps' Team put that idea together. It'd be great to know if it was the same person to come up with the McDonalds french fry op. Kamaltoe doesn't have anyone that sharp.
It totally captivated the news cycle. The "lefties" tried to put it in the worst light, but anyone/everyone watching the event had to be laughing their ass off. It will be one of the best memes of the campaign.

My mom also was so proud to be able to loan to a project that she could never get back when she really needed it.
So was my father not long after his reinstatement. Soon he again was an MS. He was approached (without my mother's presence) and asked if he wanted to just cancel the loan and consider it a gift.
Follow the money!

Bethelites dressing up for Halloween
by neat blue dog inthink about it: they had to go out and buy halloween paraphernalia, then apply makeup & costumes to dress the 'brothers & sisters' up as vampires, witches, mummies etc.
and you know they were probably joking around the whole time.
what a bunch of hypocrites, the last gen gb would be turning in their graves to see such a photoshoot at the 'house of god' 😆.

I think that is Lazarus in the back ground and Jezebel front & center.
Likely just an innocent JW costume party.

WATCHTOWER IS WATERING DOWN BEDROOM SURVEILLANCE?
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/hwzly3fnpdo?si=0p8zd0_9a-lwtb_9.
the study article 2 from the january 2025 watchtower study edition titled “husbands, honor your wife” represents a marked shift from the earlier, stricter watchtower stance on marital intimacy among jehovah’s witnesses.
this article’s language feels more relaxed, with paragraph 17 and its footnote stating, “the bible does not provide details as to what sexual practices between a husband and a wife should be considered clean or unclean.

There views on these very personal relationship matters are now being expressed with much greater tact and diplomacy. I suspect they now have a cunning linguist on the Writing Dept staff.
