No they are not, nor do they reveal what they're seeing.

It is quite telling that virtually every poster on this forum understands this basic truth through real world experience.  Yet we are to abandon all critical thought and cede our decision making to some liberal idiot bureaucrats whose champion shows up here out of nowhere, completely ignorant when it comes to this same basic truth.

As Reagan kindly and gracefully put it, it's not that they don't know anything.  It is that so much of what they do know is wrong.

I'll also wager @banddag has worked on wiring and/or plumbing without calling a licenses tradesman "to save a buck". And that actually is far more dangerous, particularly to other people, than doing an ultrasound on a cow to see if it is pregnant or not.

Analysis: Joe Biden’s ‘Blue Wall’ Crumbles Under Weight of Donald Trump’s Comeback

Wendell Husebø 4 May 2024

President Joe Biden’s seemingly unassailable “blue wall” appears to be crumbling in the wake of former President Donald Trump’s greatest political comeback in history.

The “blue wall” represents three battleground states: Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Biden must win these states to prevent Trump from winning reelection.

The states are imperative for Biden due to Trump’s surge in the sunbelt states of Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina. In those four states, Trump leads Biden between three and six points in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina, FiveThirtyEight’s polling averages show.

“There’s a clear divide between the Blue Wall states, where the polling is close, and the Sun Belt states, where it isn’t,” wrote Steven Shepard, Politico‘s senior campaign and elections editor and chief polling analyst.

For the first time in 2024, Trump held a narrow lead in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, Tuesday’s Emerson poll showed. Previous swing state polling showed Trump leading in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, with only Michigan leaning toward Biden.

Seven states — Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina — will decide the president, longtime Democrat adviser Doug Sosnik wrote in the New York Times. If Trump wins one or more of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, Biden’s chances of obtaining 270 electoral votes become slim.

My rancher son-in-law has had to stick his entire arm in a cow’s hoohaw to pull out a calf in distress. There ain’t no time to wait for a vet. He’d lose both cow and calf. Every single cattle owner has had to do this at one time or another.
Ranchers love their cattle.  They are devoted to their cattle. Most vets in rural America understand this and will do whatever they can to assist the rancher in becoming somewhat self-sufficient.

Yep.

WSJ: Pro-Palestinian Encampments Trained for ‘Months’; Wespac Denies Role

Joel B. Pollak 4 May 2024

The Wall Street Journal reports that many of the pro-Palestinian activists in campus “encampments” around the nation trained for “months” with veteran activists and groups before launching their invasions last month.

As Breitbart News and others have noted, many of the “encampments” have used similar tactics, and the activists are well-trained in methods such as linking arms to push people (including journalists) out of their enclosures. Veteran activists have been onsite, such as Lisa Fithian, who was recently seen at the Columbia University encampment. And the New York Police Department has stated that funding for the encampments has come from around the world.

The Journal adds depth in its report, adding that National Students for Justice in Palestine (NJSP), which is involved in the encampments, has been receiving funding from a group in New York called Wespac:

    The recent wave of pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses came on suddenly and shocked people across the nation. But the political tactics underlying some of the demonstrations were the result of months of training, planning and encouragement by longtime activists and left-wing groups.

    …

    Though there isn’t a centralized command overseeing the student movement opposing Israel’s invasion of Gaza, there are connections between longstanding far-left groups and the protesters.

    …

    For the last decade, donations to NJSP have been received and administered by the Wespac Foundation, according to Howard Horowitz, Wespac’s board chairman. The donations are passed on to NSJP “for projects in the United States,” he said, declining to provide further details.

Wespac denied being involved in the encampments or coordinating in any way with the participants in the campus protests.
