Thing That Never Happens Happening in Maine: Illegals Voting

Let’s list some of the things that the media and Democrat establishment says there’s “no evidence” for. All of these things are actually true, and backed up by the evidence the left claims doesn’t exist. 

  • That the “Russian collusion” Democrats claim Donald Trump engaged in with the 2016 election is just a hoax. Hell, Hillary Clinton arranged for the “Steele Dossier” to be compiled, with its lewd and ludicrous allegations against Trump. 
  • That presidential son Hunter Biden’s laptop was filled with video, images, and records showing Hunter doing hard drugs and frolicking with prostitutes. Twitter banned the country’s oldest newspaper, the New York Post, from the entire platform simply for publishing an investigation. All mainstream media refused to cover the story, or blatantly lied, claiming it was “disinformation.” It was not. All of it was true. 
  • That there were zero election irregularities in 2020, there’s no evidence at all, not even a little tiny bit, that even one vote was not properly accounted for. But, of course, there’s more than enough evidence of electoral shenanigans to justify investigations that will never happen. 

That’s what we’re told by the left: “there’s no evidence.” There’s no evidence for any wrongdoing on the part of any Democrat ever, and nothing a Republican suspects is ever true and it must never be investigated. This is just a lie. It is not a disagreement. It is not a “differing interpretation.” It is a brazen, deliberate lie. 

Being a conservative in 2024 is to be constantly frustrated by the predictable revelations about Democrat malfeasance. Sooner or later, the truth comes out, and the skullduggery they all assured us never took place turns out to have taken place. But by the time we learn about it, it’s a “non-story.” Neither the Democrat establishment nor the mainstream media (entirely leftist) ever have to apologize. They never pay any consequences. 

It appears the same dynamic is starting again in the state of Maine. LibsofTikTok brings us this news:

The newish reporting outlet Maine Wire did the work. They found evidence in government documents that illegal aliens were fraudulently billing Medicaid (that’s your tax dollars). But they also found that some of these illegal aliens were registered to vote. Worse, these aliens cast ballots in elections, for Democrats, naturally.

Records show the legal and illegal aliens billing Medicaid, known in Maine as MaineCare, for hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical expenses. They were provided to the Maine Wire by a whistleblower concerned about potentially fraudulent billing practices at a healthcare provider in Maine.

When the identities of the 18 legal and illegal aliens named in the records were cross-referenced with voting records from the Maine Secretary of State, six of the individuals were registered to vote, five had voted in elections since 2016, and all were registered Democrats.

The individuals range in age from 35 to 74. According to SSN-Check.org, they received their social security numbers at ages ranging from 16 to 58. Four of the individuals received their social security numbers in Maine, while one received their number in Georgia and another received theirs in California.

Let’s see if people on X/Twitter believe this constitutes “no evidence” of illegal alien voter fraud benefiting Democrats. 

Look! Here’s some more “no evidence.”

Jason’s got the right of it. Think about this at scale. 

More non-evidence.

“Queer” Female Commander Sends $100 Million Ship to Davy Jones’ Locker

It’s the kind of story that calls up musical numbers like “Anything you can do, I can do better!” Or maybe the apocryphal quote from Ginger Rogers is more apt, the one about doing everything Fred Astaire did, but “backwards in heels.”

What kind of footwear was Commander Yvonne Gray wearing when she scuttled a $100 million New Zealand battleship? What, if anything, was she doing backward? 

The British lesbian (we’re assured this characteristic is super-very-important in military exercises) was on her first ship command at the helm of the HMNZS Manawanui when the vessel went down on Saturday October 5. The ship ran aground on a reef off the coast of Samoa and caught fire. The crew saw smoke that morning at about 6:30, and by 9 a.m. local time the Manawanui had slipped beneath the surface of the ocean. All of the 75 crew aboard were rescued. 

The New Zealand Navy has started an investigation, of course, but it will take time to figure out all the factors that went into the ship’s loss. 

Commander Gray is said to have been inexperienced, and many people are calling her a diversity hire. Now, there’s nothing about being a lesbian that automatically signals “unfit to command a ship.” But it is true that unqualified people have been placed in senior positions of government and corporations over the past several years because they ticked a diversity box: woman, gay, trans, not-white, etc. This is just plain true, and everyone knows it. 

Indeed, much hoopla was made about Gray’s ascension to command—she’s a former teacher whose dream was to open a restaurant—as a “queer woman.” Here’s just one example of the exuberant, gushing, and dare we say, feminine, praise of women in the New Zealand military simply because they are women. 

Even if the investigation determines that Commander Gray acted appropriately and was not responsible for the $100 million disaster, it’s not going to be possible to stop tongues wagging. People are so fed up with incompetent minorities being elevated to positions of power, while competent people are called “racist” and “bigoted” for pointing it out, that no one has any rational reason to trust investigations that find no fault. After all, these agencies and military branches are obviously hiring to fill diversity quotas; why would anyone believe a word they say? 

It’s already starting on social media. 

And some of it is funny as hell. 

Let’s see what others have to say. 

Sorry, but the old guy here is right. 

It’s amazing how closely modern life resembles parodies from 50 years ago.

Harris Husband Emhoff is “Redefining Masculinity” by Allegedly Hitting Women

It’s always been the case that egotistical people are attracted to positions of power. We often remark on how power corrupts, but it’s probably more accurate that positions of power attract the already corrupted, the narcissistic. 

But it’s undoubtedly the case that our society in general today is more narcissistic, and it looks like the percentage of people with strong narcissistic tendencies is greater than it’s ever been in living memory. 

Power-hungry people use many tools to beguile us and extract resources: flattery, lying, manipulation. One of their favorite tools is the “narcissistic reversal.” It’s so simple and straightforward that you may be surprised at how well it works (and it works most of the time). It’s just reversing the truth, calling black white, calling good actions bad actions, calling perpetrators of abuse “victims.” Normal people don’t act this way, and that’s how we’re taken in by the narcissistic reversal. We can’t imagine lying this way, so we incorrectly assume that no one else would.

Therefore, if John says he’s a victim, he must be, right? 

The Democrat Party has been doing one hell of a reversal on the concept of masculinity. Anyone who has watched Minnesota Governor and vice presidential hopeful Tim Walz prance across the stage would not think of him first when talking about the art of manliness. His feet barely touch the floor and he waves frenetically like Jack Tripper, the character in the old sitcom Three’s Company who pretends to be homosexual so the landlord will allow him to room with two girls (oh, remember the days when people cared about propriety?). 

Yet there the blue team is trying to portray Walz as “America’s Dad.” 

It’s not as obviously ridiculous since Kamala Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff has not been observed prancing, but the left is trying to sell us on the idea that Emhoff is “the new masculinity.” What women on the left are doing is reversing the definition of “masculine.” Emhoff appears to be content, as commentator Matt Walsh said recently, to play second fiddle to his wife. That’s what these women really want, and they’re calling that “masculine” to sell it to sane people. 

But even under the old definition of manliness, Emhoff doesn’t look so good. Prolific X user Collin Rugg has this on allegations that Emhoff (who cheated on his former wife and got the nanny pregnant) has a history of abusing women. 

As Rugg said on X, “It’s always the male feminists.”

Let’s see what others had to say. 

Chuck has a good question. 

Eric here is probably going to be waiting a long time.

Union Boss Talks Like a “Godfather” Character, Threatens Americans

Many Americans are generally sympathetic to what unions claim they stand for, honest pay for honest work. Even though they lean in different directions on unions, both liberals and conservatives can imagine scenarios where corporate power gets out of control and becomes exploitative, and it needs to be met with an opposing force.

But it’s a lot harder for most of us to sympathize with union bosses and the corrupt way in which they operate. As the nation sits through the first day of a Longshoreman’s union strike—47,000 dock and port workers on the east coast—that could cripple the supply chain worse than the government-bungled pandemic response, the head of the union is raising eyebrows.

Harold Daggett is the president of the International Longshoremen’s Association (the striking union). He sat down in front of a camera and delivered a list of dire consequences to other industries and his fellow Americans if the union’s demands aren’t met. Auto dealers out of cars? Too bad. President screaming at my guys to go back to work? Too bad. “I will cripple you,” Daggett said, looking and sounding like a movie mafioso, down to the vulgar gold chain.

Listen for yourself:

It gets better. Turns out—surprise!—Daggett has a past.

Daggett makes almost a million dollars a year, owns multiple yachts, and drives a Bentley. To be fair, union bosses aren’t asked to take a vow of poverty, as disproportionate as such compensation might seem.

But what about the fact that he’s been charged with racketeering by the Department of Justice (he beat both cases)? What about the fact that one of his co-defendants was found rotting in a car during the trial?

Seems a little harder to sympathize with him knowing that. Let’s see what X users had to say.

Why not start with Space Daddy and X owner Elon Musk?

4% of Haiti’s Entire Population Has Entered U.S. Under Biden-Harris – And That’s Not All

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have been importing an astonishing number of third-world Haitians into the country. That’s right. The administration has been actively arranging and paying for Haitian “migrants” to fly into the U.S. More on this below, but first, we need to prepare the ground. 

It’s astonishing reading news articles in 2024 to prepare for an article like this one you’re reading on Wokespy. Yours truly was a working newspaper reporter about 25 years ago during the very last period in which news organizations still believed, at least partially, in reporting the facts, not editorializing with a political slant. Not so now. In preparing another article about the allegations by Springfield, Ohio residents who claim Haitians are stealing ducks and geese (and household pets) from local parks and neighborhoods, I could not find one story that didn’t sound like a press release from the Democratic National Committee. 

Every single headline and lead sentence said something like, “Vance and Trump repeat baseless claims,” or “Vance claims cats getting eaten without evidence.” There’s a big problem: these claims are not baseless, and it is not true that there is “no evidence.” There is plenty of evidence, and it is the same kind of evidence introduced in actual court proceedings: eyewitness testimony and police reports.

Yet even liberal mainstream media cannot deny every fact. Take this article from Newsweek. The angle is to big up the Biden administration, and Kamala Harris, for an alleged 70 percent drop in illegal border crossings recently. But read carefully. The drop only came after Biden was forced to take action after pressure from Republicans furious at the millions of illegals the administration is welcoming into the U.S. with no vetting. And the drop wouldn’t have been so large in percentage terms if the Biden-Harris admin didn’t let border crossings explode in the first place.

Buried deep in the Newsweek article is this bit of truth. It’s a quote from Customs and Border Patrol: “Through the end of August 2024, nearly 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans arrived lawfully on commercial flights and were granted parole under these processes.”

That’s right. Half a million “migrants” “arrived lawfully” on “commercial flights.” Half a million got a free plane ticket to the U.S. Does any of this sound sane?

There’s another way to look at the numbers that may wake some people up to what’s going on. X (Twitter) user “datahazard” has compiled a chart showing the percentage of each foreign country’s population that has been whisked into the United States.

We’ve brought in six percent of the populations of Nicaragua, Cuba, and Honduras, plus four percent of Haiti’s population. Let’s see what social media users had to say. 

Does the Kamala Express go to Coconut Tree Island, too? 

Jay here is right about Kamala being a joke, but will enough Dems wake up before November to prevent a disaster?

Debra’s post highlights something new, too. Every U.S. state is now a “border state.” It used to be that Texas, Arizona, and California got most of the illegals. But even up here in your faithful correspondent’s northeast state of Vermont, you can literally see the population changing by the week as spanish-Speaking “migrants” show up in greater numbers (most of them speak no English, and most of them are single young men).

Biden Lies About the Second Amendment Again. And Again. And Again.

Have Americans gotten used to being yelled at by our presidents? President Joe Biden seems to believe it’s normal to scream at his audience and the population generally as if he were an angry father. 

The tone of some of his statements during the “pandemic” shocked many observers. In September of 2021, a year and a few months into the “pandemic” that turned into an excuse to abrogate the constitutional rights of Americans, Biden made an address that would have sounded at home in a public service ad about domestic violence. 

“We’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin,” he said. To whom? The portion of the population that had not taken or refused to take the Covid vaccines. It left many of us asking, “Who does this man think he is?”

In our modern era, we’re undergoing a reversal. Politicians and public servants now assume that they’re in a parental or power-over relationship with the citizens. Somehow in recent years, it has become normal for elected representatives or plain old government workers to issue orders to citizens, rather than the other way around.

Nowhere was this more evident than in Biden’s infamous “red speech,” also in September of 2021. Standing in front of Independence Hall that was bathed in blood-red light, Biden yelled and harangued the American people, insulting regular citizens who had voted for Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election.

About ordinary Americans, Biden said, “MAGA Republicans do not respect the constitution,” and that they were “empowering election deniers.”

But it is Biden who does not respect the constitution. Indeed, it is an open question whether he actually understands it. It is unclear which group of people he was addressing on Thursday, September 27, but his message could not have been easier to interpret. Raising his voice like an exasperated dad, Biden told a familiar lie: he claimed that the Second Amendment did not give Americans the right to own a cannon. 

With what has become his characteristic slurring, Biden said, “I taught constitutional law for years. NEVER was the second amendment meant to be absolute. Back when it was passed you could not own a cannon.”

You really need to listen to the audio to get the full, disturbing “vibe” from the angry way Biden spits out his words.

Check out this video clip:


But his tone is not the only problem. He’s just factually wrong. The Second Amendment has never been interpreted to mean that you can’t own a cannon. Biden has repeated this lie many times before; it is simply not credible to believe he is honestly mistaken. Three years ago, the notoriously Biden-friendly Washington Post even conceded that he was telling a lie. 

Here’s the truth. You’re allowed to own a cannon under the Second Amendment. And also; Biden never taught constitutional law.

Let’s see if X users were persuaded by bellicose Biden. 

On this next one? Yes, Biden did indeed say that.

Texas Gunsmith Trolls Lonestar Democrats Hard with Billboard Prank

It’s what the young people today call a “sick burn.” You can bet some blue-no-matter-who people in Texas are hopping mad after someone bought a billboard right beneath another ad urging Texans to “vote Democratic.”

The billboard plugging votes for Democrats sits on a pole that can fit two signs, one above the other. A sign reading “Vote Democratic” was placed on top, with the one below reading “Cooper.”

Cooper is the advertising agency that sells space, and the “ad” is just a placeholder letting people know there’s a spot they can rent for their message. Well, the gentleman who posted the video above noticed and said, “That one right there is still available. Shall we do something?”

And do something he did. Watch below – and get ready to laugh:

It’s not just conservatives or Texans getting a laugh out of that bit of trolling. A rock radio station in Wichita Falls, Kansas, noticed the billboards. Staff writer “Stryker” for 106.3 FM wrote Democrats in Comfort, Texas, are probably having acid indigestion on seeing the perfectly legal and above-board “prank.” 

The original sign urging a Democrat vote was bought and paid for by the Kendall County Democrats.

And who was the stinker who put up the “Just Kidding, Vote Republican, MAGA” sign just below? You’re going to love this. The customer is a gunsmith who owns a business that applies ceramic coating to guns, cars, and more. 

The “ratio” on X (Twitter) in response to the post about the billboard is decidedly in the gunsmith’s favor:

But there’s always at least one blue party pooper:

Goldman Sachs, Wharton Biz School Smack Down Kamala’s Economic Lies

Vice President and presidential hopeful Kamala Harris must believe Americans have just fallen out of a coconut tree. The woman lies more often than she breathes, and her latest whopper brought out some big guns who offered a correction. 

During the September 10 debate with Donald Trump, Harris lied repeatedly, stating as fact long-debunked lies about things she claimed Donald Trump has done. She lied about him praising neo-Nazis at a Charlottesville rally (the “fine people” lie), and she lied about Trump threatening a “bloodbath” if he does not win the presidency (Trump spoke metaphorically about the auto industry). 

But she also lied about herself, or, more specifically, about praise for her alleged economic plan, saying that her vision for the future was supported by economists everywhere. Harris continued this brazen deception during a Boomer-celebrity-packed Zoom call—of all things—hosted by Oprah Winfrey. During the “Unite for America” event, Harris claimed that Goldman Sachs, Moody’s, and the Wharton School of Business, along with “16 Nobel laureates” have “collectively determined after analyzing our plans [that] mine would strengthen the economy, his would weaken it.”

Harris must never have faced any consequences for her lying, because she seems absolutely fearless in telling the exact opposite of the truth. 

Newsweek contacted the Wharton school for comment. An unidentified spokesperson said the school “did not find a positive impact on the economy from her plan in any future year.” By contrast, the staffer said, Trump’s plan would increase Gross Domestic Product “for a few years” but would lower it at the end of a ten-year cycle. 

And what about Goldman Sachs? CEO David Solomon said Harris was really reaching when she said a report from his firm backed her economic plan. He said the report was from an independent analyst first of all, and that it found a tiny difference in predicted outcome between the economic plans of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. How small? Two-tenths of 1 percent. 

Let’s see if social media users were surprised.

Don’t Believe Your Lying Eyes: FBI Says Crime Is Down

By now you’re probably used to being told that what you think you can see with your own eyes isn’t true. Instead, you should trust the experts.

Did you notice changes in your child’s behavior after vaccination? No, you didn’t. The experts say vaccines are totally completely 100 percent honest to goodness safe. 

Do you think you’re spending a lot more on groceries today than you were when Joe Biden took office in 2020? Well, you think wrong, and you can’t add up the dollars you’ve spent, because the experts say President Biden has inflation under control, and it’s only stupid MAGA right wingers that claim eggs were not always $5 a dozen. 

You might even be foolish enough to think you’ve noticed more violent and dangerous behavior, like robbery, shoplifting, or assault out on the streets. Once again, you would be wrong to trust data from your own senses, and even more wrong to believe any stories your friends and family tell about being accosted in what used to be safe neighborhoods. 

No, friends, you haven’t seen what you think you’ve seen. The experts say so. The biggest experts of all, the FBI, can confirm that not only are you not seeing what you think you see, but you’re even crazier than you knew. Violent crime is actually down, you dumb MAGA rabble rouser. See? The statistics say so. 

Mainstream media like NBC are nothing but helpmeets to the federal government now, parroting every fib and misdirection. This articles just repeats the FBI’s implausible claim that murder declined at the steepest rate in 20 years between 2022 and 2023. And you can trust NBC, because they put it in a headline:

Except crime is not down, as anyone with eyes can see. The Biden administration and all the agencies that work under it (allegedly–it might be the other way around) are just lying to us. And according to the Trump campaign, they’re doing it using some of the cheapest tricks in the book. 

The rate of violent crimes the campaign is reporting is significantly higher than what the FBI claims. Why would that be? Well, because reporting is voluntary on the part of cities and states, and the latest FBI crime stats have huge, gaping holes—there is no data from crime in New York City or Los Angeles. 

Besides, states like California that have gone soft on crime are simply not arresting or prosecuting as many crimes as are occurring. This allows them to point to sheer numbers and say “crime is down.” Gee, government work must be nice if you can get it. 

Let’s see what the public on X has to say. Some of them, of course, think the FBI is much more trustworthy than Trump. 

Others see it in the reverse. 

James might need a social media suspension for trusting his own stupid “anecdote” instead of a real expert who knows James’ life better than James does.

Who Promoted Jill Biden to Acting President and Queen Consort?

America does not have royalty. That used to go without saying, but as with quaint concepts like freedom of speech and assembly, modern Americans need more frequent reminders of their political birthright. 

Getting out from under the tyrannical British Crown was the motivation for the American Revolution—the tax on tea was only the proximate cause that set off a long-waiting powder keg of resentment among the colonists. Subjects are not citizens, and the founding fathers wanted a system of government that the people consented to. 

But though we don’t often admit it, Americans have held onto a certain romantic interest in the trappings of royalty. We are as, or more, obsessed with gossip about the British Royal Family as His Majesty’s subjects are. 

We can see this affection for aristocracy in the strange and frankly un-American title we give to the wife of the U.S. President: first lady (no, it’s not capitalized because it isn’t a real title). The United States does not have lords or ladies; that’s the entire purpose behind the American project. We do not officially recognize an elevated status for the wife of the president; she does not become Queen Consort for four years simply because her husband was elected to office. 

That is, unless she is Jill Biden. And that’s DOCTOR Jill Biden to you, serf. Have you noticed how those with Mickey Mouse doctorates like Biden’s—she got hers in the fake field of “education”—are the ones insisting on being called “Dr.” by everyone around them? 

It looks like Jill Biden would very much like us to call her Madam President. Take a look at this remarkable spectacle (click below to watch the video):

This is footage of the first full cabinet meeting President Biden has held in 11 months. That’s no surprise, of course; everyone knows Biden is in the grip of senile dementia and has spent more time flat on his back at Delaware beaches this year than he has spent on doing his job. 

But why is Jill Biden seated at the head of the table where the President should sit? She doesn’t hold any office. No one voted for her. She is quite literally just some guy’s wife.

And why does the new White House stationery bear Jill’s signature underneath Joe’s? 

Let’s see what X users have to say about our new first overlady. 

Ari here has a point—were you able to understand much of what Joe Biden said in the video above?
