PLANET VALENTI NEWS AND COMMENTARY

It is the duty of every man, as far as his ability extends, to expose delusion and error” — Thomas Paine

(FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE, THE WEEKEND EDITION SEPT. 13-15, 2024) — THE PLANET is like you and most people. We want to be left alone, live in peace, feel safe, have enough for a comfortable life, and want just enough government to assure these rights. The only ones who advocate Big Government are (a) the crooks and crumbs in politics for a living and (b) the ignorant, whom they have seduced.

These are the “greedy leaders” George Harrison sang about in his magnificent post-Beatles song “Beware of Darkness.”

This is Kamala Harris.

———- ooo ———-

What’s interesting to THE PLANET is how people can keep falling for such creepers. She rises on the strength of the casting couch, runs for president, fails to win a single delegate, gets selected (not elected) Vice President primarily because she is black and female, hasn’t run for anything since, and at a late hour gets propped up to head her party’s national ticket.

Harris empty calories, stands for nothing, cowardly avoids the press, speaks in vapid tautologies in a nasally whine, laughs inappropriately, and half the electorate falls for it, dazzled by the Unicorn and Show Pony candidate.

Donald Trump, on the other hand, won the presidency against all odds and fierce opposition from the Old Guard, the Swamp, and gave America one of the most successful four-year terms this country has ever seen. Secure borders. A growing economy. Low inflation. Respect for America. No war. Dialogue not weakness with our “enemies.”

Trump’s effectiveness was and is like no one else because HE IS NOT A POLITICIAN.

The Swamp hates and fears him. They tried the courts to stop him, Harris and Biden adopting the Stalin Model of show trials. That failed. Next up, a bullet to the head. That failed. In reserve, steal another election through manipulation.

And that’s why America has one final chance to right the foundering, floundering ship on Nov. 5 by voting in Donald Trump at America’s 47th president.

———- ooo ———-

THE PLANET now presents this guest column by James Conrad, republished by fair-use permission.

Kamala Harris Called ‘Embarrassing’ After Plagiarizing Biden While Finally Posting Policies
Kamala Harris Called ‘Embarrassing’ After Plagiarizing Biden While Finally Posting Policies

Vice President Kamala Harris has embarrassed herself many times throughout her sham political career. Her latest mistake, however, might take the cake when it comes to her biggest humiliations.

Harris was just caught blatantly plagiarizing from President Joe Biden’s campaign. This came seven weeks after he dropped out of the race, and she was anointed as his replacement.

On Sunday, Harris’ official campaign website blatantly plagiarized policies from President Joe Biden’s campaign website, copying and pasting them onto its “issues” page. Her campaign did this after weeks of Harris being slammed for not having any policies on her official website.

The New Republic, a liberal outlet, called Harris out for plagiarism in an article titled “Embarrassing Copy-Paste Plagues Harris’s Launch of Policy Platform.”

From The New Republic:
Shortly after Kamala Harris released her policy agenda on Sunday evening, users on X spotted something in the metadata: Much of the language appears to have been lifted from Joe Biden’s campaign website. On Sunday night, X user Corinne Green pointed out that the issues section of Harris’s website contained metadata with language urging voters to reelect Joe Biden. This language was visible when links to the campaign site were shared, and in the website’s description on Google searches.

All of this creates the impression that at least some of the Harris campaign’s policy language was copied and pasted from Biden’s documents. That would be an embarrassing miscue from the Harris campaign, which partly came into being because of a perception that a refresh was needed to garner enthusiasm in the Democratic Party. It doesn’t help that the section on her website about her Israel-Palestine policy seems very similar to what Biden’s campaign was saying.

This Sums Up Harris Perfectly

This perfectly sums up both Harris and her campaign. Indeed, there is nothing authentic or original about Harris. Instead, Harris is a sleazy career politician who will do and say anything to win this election.

Ever since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee, Harris has tried to portray herself as a moderate falsely. In reality, Harris is a radical liberal who will undoubtedly go about enacting her own woke agenda if she makes it to the White House.

That’s why it is no surprise that Harris would put virtually no thought into the issues page on her website. She has no intention of letting voters know her radical plans for this country should she come to power.

This is also rich coming from Biden’s vice president, given the fact that he was forced out of the 1988 presidential race for plagiarizing a speech by the British leader Neil Kinnock. After the scandal broke, multiple incidents of plagiarism in Biden campaign speeches and even from his time in law school were exposed to the world.

This humiliating controversy was a major skeleton in Biden’s closet for years. It seems that Harris has since taken a page out of her boss’s playbook for her own presidential campaign. You know what they say about birds of a feather!

In the end, this just goes to show once again how incompetent Harris really is. At this critical time in American history, she’s the last type of person that this country needs in the White House!

And the Republican party fell for it hook line and sinker. This should be a easily a landslide for the Orange man. But and its a big one. The party is run by a bunch of Christian looney birds. They have let Trump rise without challenge and without putting up any one that would challenge him or should I say as crazy as him. This is and will be the downfall of the Republicans again this year. Sorry this imbecile at the top will loose again and which should be a easy victory..

It will be much too late by that time. Our country will become just like the European countries that have been taken over by the illegal immigrants. This election is pivotal for determining the direction of America. Do we let the communists and globalists totally destroy our culture or do we take a stand to take back our country. We are on the brink and so many Americans are either looking for big government to take care of them and/or they are brainwashed by the messaging they hear everyday to hate Donald Trump.

Donald Trump’s AGENDA: Project 2025 to remake the U.S.A. into an authoritarian state!

I remember an infamous and disgraced Pittsfield politician’s plagiarism in the year 2012. His name rhymes with Luciforo.

My favorite politicians: Andrea Harrington, Kamala Harris, Joyce Craig, and Maura Healey.

Blogger Dan Valenti’s least favorite politicians: see the names above.

What is the WEIRD legacy of the Republican Party? Answer: Moral Hypocrisy.

I was enjoying some tea and crumpets with my uncle Dennis and his husband Larry, when we began talking about Trump’s Project 2025.

I told them Donald Trump’s AGENDA: Project 2025 will remake the U.S.A. into an authoritarian state.

My uncle Dennis then told me something even more shocking about Donald Trump’s Project 2025.

He told me on Page 451, it diminishes and ultimately ends LGBTQ families like Dennis and Larry and want to replace it back to the “traditional nuclear family.”

This is why I’ll never vote for the MORAL HYPOCRITE Donald Trump.

Well, at least they have stopped calling her stupid and inarticulate. They finally realized that they just couldn’t make that case because it flew in the face of fact.

You’ve really got to ask yourself: why did they spend so much time claiming she is stupid and inarticulate? I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and say it’s because that’s how she was portrayed in the counter-culture media.

You may see the city go into revolt on this one. Those toters are just too small for 75% of families even with diligent recycling. This has Bird scooter and North street toilet plunger stink all over it. Call the mayor and his pet Pete White at their homes if you have concerns as they are the promoters, backers and are the ones jamming this down taxpayers throats.

Of all the things they could have saved money on they chose the one that would hurt the citizens the most.

But splash pads, pickle ball courts, dog walking parks, pump tracks at Springside, new city positions, dozens of new city vehicles, pay raises and planters, trees bushes and flowers all over the city need full funding. WTF

Get out if you can. These are the people in charge of your city and they could give a shit less about you.

I totally agree with you on this one snark shark. These totes are ridiculously small. The city is even admitting they are doing this to force people to spend every waking minute organizing their garbage to fit into various containers. The city even arrogantly admitted that they had the choice of 4 sizes of toters to choose from and they chose the next to the smallest container out of spite for the public it seems. People will have a terrible time of squeezing all their garbage into these totes. Large families and even smaller ones will be forced to pay extra money that the city is squeezing out of them at every turn. Will it take rats roaming all over the city before these politicians wake up and get some common sense?

I hope Dan takes this subject up and let’s us have a full discussion. The people who made the decision on toter size all have city trash receptacles at their disposal. So there you go. The pictures they were showing of the toers from the side were very misleading as to actual room inside of them. Of course.

Prediction…taxpayers befuddled and seriously inconvenienced not knowing what to do with trash. Feeling quite let down by Marchetti and especially White who is supposed to advocate for them. No one really expected that from Marchetti from day one but had a smidgen of hope for White. To no avail.

Casella…aboutto make a fortune,,,getting a much more lucrative deal than they ever dreamed of from Marchetti and White. Felling like they struck gold.

Marchettie and White……same self serving inexperienced nitwits they were before they took the helm. Absolutely no concept of what the working man is going through trying to make ends meet. And apparently could care less.

Morales…not blaming him as he does not make a move without orders from the corner office. He does not have any real power. Never the less it will be him dealing with an obviously unworkable situation. The whole thing is set up to fail and when the snow melts next spring the city will look like a landfill.

What are you supposed to do with a broom? A vacuum cleaner, a plastic lawn chair, a broken lamp, and any number of plastic children’s toys, or overstuffed pillow that will not fit into these toters? There are literally hundreds of items tossed out everyday that will not fit into these toters and if each one has to be trucked to the transfer station consider the hardship and expense.

And what about the week after Christmas or if you have a graduation party or picnic. What about those huge pieces of Styrofoam and other pieces of packing material that come with the purchase of televisions or some furniture?

Those toters may be fine for the elderly couple who have no life day in and day out but in the real world this setup seems to have been designed to enrich a business with the help of political, (or really stupid) politicians.

No private business that provides toters for residential use uses toters this small. What are the names of the people who actually did the research and signed off on the small toters for Pittsfield or would they rather not say?

Larry, can I let you in on a little secret?

The DA does not set bail, the judge does.

The DA only suggests a bail amount. The defense attorney usually asks for personal recognizance “PR,” or no bail.

That little civics lesson was free of charge. Hope you learned a little something.

Hold Them as a danger to the community.. That is what available to the DA.. They are after all a danger right? Dangerous immigrant gangs?? Maybe a flight risk ya think? Pretty much your own words. Then set a high bail attorney Markus it is attorney today right.
A 58A hearing, also known as a Dangerousness Hearing, is a court proceeding in Massachusetts that determines if a defendant is a danger to the community and should be held without bail. The hearing is held under Massachusetts General Laws.

Hey, thanks for the civics lesson. I hoped the info I provided was beneficial to your chide remark.

I started to argue this back Larry, good points BTW, but you can’t be held as “dangerous” on a theft (non-violent) crime.

Then it dawned on me, if Kamala shut the border down NOW, she is the acting Prez, and stated deporting these criminals NOW, we wouldn’t be having this discussion now would we?

Can’t blame Trump on this one.

The greatest danger I felt was the loss of the barbeque sauces at the checkout aisle. They were safe so I don’t see a dangerous hearing actually. But I’m prejudiced and really don’t care about horse feed.

Dan- Your reference to “Beware of Darkness” brought to mind the scripture verse of Ephesians 6:12
” For our struggles are not against flesh and blood, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against the mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places”
And because of this, we must contend with those “greedy rulers”, those immoral reprobates, who are put in high places of authority, to execute their diabolical rulership over us, Many of our so-called leaders, have been “given over to a depraved mind, since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God, who abandoned them to their foolish thinking, letting them do the things, that ought not to be done”(Romans1)

What we see happening here, in this present political debacle, should not surprise us, with our inability to convince others, (especially our leaders) of the importance of truth/moral thinking, an essential, for our nations ultimate survival. Nothing of what we are seeing play out, with the likes of Kamala Harris, should surprise us, given what God has made clear to us in His word. Though many may scoff at this, we as a nation need to truly humble ourselves before God, our creator, the one who has blessed us greatly since our inception, God has been very patient with us but one can only surmise just how much longer His patience will continue especially as we consider our present day, devolving state of affairs

ToxinChatter- “ 7Do not be deceived: God is not to be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return.”(Galatians)

If Trump becomes President you may finally see(depending upon how hardened your heart has become) the great things he will do to revive and make America great again. If Harris becomes President, you will soon see that everything that has been said/predicted of her will come to fruition. And you will be standing there like a lost puppy , scratching your head and saying, “ Gee what happened” and all those accusatory words you spoke against Trump, will slap you in the face and you will quickly realize the costly and devastating blunder you made voting for such a fraudulent fool as Harris. She will undoubtedly accelerate corruption and with the help of her co-conspirators will completely destroy our Republic and usher in a communist nation, the essence of who, she is truly about.

Biden was declared incompetent , to stand trial for his crimes, due to dementia, by his own corrupt DOJ. Why hasn’t the Laughing Hyena taken over?

I forgot, she’s busy campaigning on fixing the things, she did the last 3 1/2 years:

open borders/criminal alien invasion, energy and food prices unaffordable, politicallyweaponized DOJ and federal agencies, paying criminal aliens more benefits than senior US citizens on social security, dependence on foreign energy rather than being an energy exporter……….

Another assassination attempt on Donald Trump and the media continues to spin the hate machine against him. Kamala Harris called Trump “a threat to our democracy” during the debate when what she really meant is Trump is a threat to her communist/globalist agenda taking down this country. This is why Kamala will not be specific about her agenda and instead says she will create an “opportunity economy”. This is so vague and will undoubtedly benefit illegal immigrants not Americans. The son of the shooter said his dad is a great guy who hated Trump, but he would never resort to violence. Trump is being targeted by assassins and, as a former president, he should now have the same protection as Biden.

Springfield, Ohio just had 15,000 Haitians enter their small city of around 50,000 people. Just imagine if Pittsfield, a similar sized city, has this happen. This is Kamala’s plan for cities and town across the country and all she did was laugh at Trump and his concerns about illegal immigration. The media is making fun of Trump also for even mentioning what is happening in Springfield, Ohio. The media is deceptively saying that Trump’s claims of an invasion of this small city are false, but Fox and Newsmax are showing what is really going on in this city.

The question remains–how does a conservative convince the typical low-IQ/low information voter who the left wing media is targeting with the daily Trump bs to have them give thought to voting for what’s strategically best for him/herself and the
country?

So Im Driving in n y state and come to a red light near the highway and this guy comes out of nowhere rapping on my window. So I’m not to worried as I’m two hundred pounds and can take care of myself. So I put the passenger window down a little while the lights turning green he starts speaking Spanish. I know Spanish very well. He says he wants to go to jail,in Spanish. So as I drove off I pointed to the gas station and he says ,yells gracias,thank you in Spanish.

This illegal immigration is no joke. You don’t know who your dealing with.

Assassins for Biden/Harris.

“It didn’t take long for internet sleuths to get out ahead of the intelligence agencies and the big tech censorship machine who quickly removed any trace of the incredible history of Ryan Wesley Routh, a Democrat donor and, according to the bumper sticker on his vehicle, a Biden-Harris supporter.

Donald Trump Jr. shared the image of the would-be assassin’s truck parked in front of his home with the caption:

That’s an Interesting bumper sticker on Ryan Wesley Routh’s truck.” -TGP
