I'm watching the debate with the sound on mute now. Couldn't stand it anymore. Now I'm just glancing up occasionally curious if I will see either one of them having a medical emergency. Sounds morbid but I'm sad that it's accurate.
I felt a lot of empathy for Joe B last night. He's in a position of failing health and mind but the party's situation won't let him retire and rest. It's terrible to push someone that way.
I was struck by the way his eyes weren't seemingly bothered by the lights and also his strange lack of blinking.
Trump just seemed tired and rambling.
It was miserable to watch and I ended up muting it after about 30 minutes.

I know, boring for some of you. Others lost friends and family...
Oxford Professor Carl Heneghan has extracted the main points from Kansas Attorney General's lawsuit against Pfizer, and they're damning.
1. Pfizer used its confidentiality agreements with the U.S. Government and others to conceal, suppress, and omit material facts relating to Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine, including the safety and efficacy of the vaccine.
2. Pfizer used an extended study timeline to conceal critical data – the study was repeatedly delayed, including a delay from January 2023 to February 2024 because of a late vaccination of a single study participant (out of 44,000 participants).
3. The FDA did not immediately make the safety and effectiveness data for Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine available, claiming it would take 55 years, but a federal judge forced them to release 55,000 pages per month rather than 500.
4. Pfizer destroyed the vaccine control group once the FDA approved emergency use authorization in December 2020.
5. In its press release announcing the emergency use authorization, Pfizer did not disclose that it had excluded immunocompromised individuals from its COVID-19 vaccine trials.
6. Pfizer knew its COVID-19 vaccine was connected to serious adverse events, including myocarditis and pericarditis.
7. By March 2021, the United States military and Israel's Ministry of Health detected a safety signal for myocarditis.
8. In August 2021, after Pfizer obtained FDA approval through emergency use authorization to provide its COVID-19 vaccine to 12-15-year-olds, Pfizer decided to study “how often” its vaccine may cause myocarditis or pericarditis in children by testing 5-16-year-olds for troponin I.
9. Pfizer also detected a safety signal relating to strokes. The FDA's and CDC's “surveillance system flagged a possible link between the new Pfizer-BioNTech bivalent COVID-19 vaccine and strokes in people aged 65 and over," and an FDA study found that individuals 85 years or older who received both a flu vaccine and Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine “saw a 20% increase in the risk of ischemic stroke.”
10. Pfizer’s knowledge of a safety signal for increased fatalities. In February 2021, Pfizer’s adverse events database contained 1,223 fatalities after taking Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine.
11. Pfizer only tested the booster shot on 12 trial participants who were in the 65- to 85-year-old age range and did not test it on any participant older than 85.
12. Pfizer did not publicly release adverse event data from its database. By February 28, 2021, Pfizer’s adverse events database contained 158,893 adverse events from 42,086 case reports, including 1,223 fatalities, although Pfizer did not make causality findings. Pfizer was receiving so many adverse events reports that it had to hire 600 additional full-time staff and expected to hire more than 1,800 additional resources by June 2021. Pfizer had such a backlog of adverse events that it might take 90 days to code “nonserious cases.” Pfizer did not know “the magnitude of under-reporting.
13. Pfizer announced a study on pregnant women but omitted the fact that more than one in ten women (52) who received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine during their pregnancy reported a miscarriage, many within days of vaccination. Six women who received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine during their pregnancy reported premature deliveries; several babies died.
14. Pfizer’s February 18th, 2021, press release also did not disclose other adverse effects on the reproductive systems of women who received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine. By April 2022, Pfizer knew of tens of thousands of adverse advents connected to its COVID-19 vaccine, including heavy menstrual bleeding (27,685), menstrual disorders (22,145), irregular periods (15,083), delayed periods (13,989), absence of periods (11,363) and other reproductive system effects.
15. Pfizer’s study on pregnant women failed. They destroyed the placebo control group, and the results were kept secret.
16. Pfizer misrepresented and concealed material facts relating to the durability of protection provided by its COVID-19 vaccine.
17. Pfizer said its COVID-19 vaccine would prevent transmission even though it knew it had never studied the effect of its vaccine on transmission.
18. Despite admissions by Pfizer Chairman and CEO Dr. Bourla and Board Member Dr. Scott Gottlieb that Pfizer did not know if its vaccine prevented transmission, Dr. Bourla warned Kansans on multiple occasions that not receiving a COVID-19 vaccine would affect the lives of those around them, thus implying that Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine prevented transmission.
19. Pfizer worked to censor speech on social media that questioned Pfizer’s claims. On July 19th 2021, Pfizer Board Member Dr. Scott Gottlieb claimed social media companies had an “obligation” and an “affirmative responsibility” to prevent the spread of COVID-19 vaccine misinformation on their platforms. Pfizer Chairman and CEO Dr. Bourla called people who spread misinformation on COVID-19 vaccines “criminals” who have “literally cost millions of lives.”
20. Pfizer worked to conceal and suppress material facts. On August 24th, 2021, Pfizer Board Member Dr. Scott Gottlieb contacted Twitter to complain about a column written by Alex Berenson that criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci. On August 27th, 2021, Dr. Scott Gottlieb had a conference call with Twitter employees to discuss Mr. Berenson. Twitter banned Mr. Berenson the next day. Dr. Gottlieb also contacted Twitter about removing posts related to natural immunity, which "Twitter later slapped with a misleading label and blocked the ability to like or share the tweet."

I was traveling on business. I was really looking forward to watching the debate, and had planned for the consumption of alcohol. I had a couple of microbrews at dinner with friends, and had purchased two Wild Turkey 101 miniatures for sipping during the broadcast whilst in my hotel room. I assumed it would be fun.
Unfortunately, it made me sad and angry. How the **** is Joe allowed to be the president?
Was your own personal perception of Donald Trump's cognitive capacity and fitness for office negatively influenced by his performance at Thursday night's debate?
Trump demonstrated unusual professionalism by modulating his inner *******. He showed mercy and restraint and maturity, all indicators of vitality. He's still the funniest ever, not a sucker, not a loser. Just terrific.

NYT Editorial Board calls for Biden to leave the 2024 presidential race
“The president appeared on Thursday night as the shadow of a great public servant. He struggled to explain what he would accomplish in a second term. He struggled to respond to Mr. Trump’s provocations. He struggled to hold Mr. Trump accountable for his lies, his failures and his chilling plans. More than once, he struggled to make it to the end of a sentence,” the board wrote in an opinion piece published Friday.
“The greatest public service Mr. Biden can now perform is to announce that he will not continue to run for re-election. As it stands, the president is engaged in a reckless gamble. There are Democratic leaders better equipped to present clear, compelling and energetic alternatives to a second Trump presidency. There is no reason for the party to risk the stability and security of the country by forcing voters to choose between Mr. Trump’s deficiencies and those of Mr. Biden. It’s too big a bet to simply hope Americans will overlook or discount Mr. Biden’s age and infirmity that they see with their own eyes,” the Times also said.
I will say, they did a great job convincing everyone that the idea Biden has dimension an he was just a puppet Jill and the deep state were controlling was an extreme-MAGA conspiracy theory for the last 3 years. They had a good run.
