OMG😲
I just compared the July 16 Reuters/Ipsos poll to their July 22 poll.
In the July 16 poll:
•33% of Independents were Biden 2020 voters vs. 29% Trump voters (Biden+4)
BUT in the July 22 poll:
•36% of Independents were Biden 2020 voters vs. 23% who voted Trump (Biden+13)
They basically changed the composition of their sample Independents group by D+9 points from last week (July 16) to now (July 22)! 🧐
It also explains why last week's poll had Trump +3 w/ Independents (38% to 35%), but this week's poll had Kamala +8 w/ Independents (30% to 38%)
Simply put, in their latest survey sample, Ipsos/Reuters dramatically increased the % of Independents who voted Biden in 2020 (& decreased the % who voted Trump) in a cheeky attempt at laundering more Democrat voters into the poll without increasing the D vs. R sample weighting.
I don't always respond to people who question (or implicitly challenge) my claims, but I value @ScottAdamsSays opinion & want to maintain my credibility
Claim: From 1993-2013, the CDC found that gun murders per capita declined by 40% yet gun ownership per capita increased by 56%
It's worth noting that, according to Pew Research, Scott's initial incredulity towards my claim was (& likely still is) shared by a majority of Americans.
Source #2: American Enterprise Institute (using data from CDC & Congressional Research Service)
"the number of guns per American increased from 0.93 in 1993 to 1.45 in 2013 (a 56% increase) during the same period when gun violence decreased by 49%"

"Last week’s Census Bureau announcement of serious errors will impact the next decade’s congressional apportionment & delegations. Given the nature of the mistakes, Democrats could hang onto the presidency under controversial circumstances due to the errors"
"The Census Bureau acknowledged that 14 states had significant miscounts in the 2020 census. See if you notice a pattern here:
[Among] the overcounted states: 5 of 6 voted for Joe Biden
[Among] the undercounted states: 5 of 6 voted for Donald Trump
"The likely effects of an accurate count would have overwhelmingly aided red states. Simply put, the revised figures show that (mostly) red states had even quicker relative population growth compared to the rest of the country — and especially compared to (mostly) blue states."
"it’s an “unfortunate coincidence” that the first vulnerabilities in polling equipment reported to CISA affect Dominion machines"
"CISA specifically advises against using the machines as configured in Georgia" apnews.com/article/2022-m…
"The vulnerability could be exploited by someone with physical access or by someone who is able to remotely infect other systems that are connected to the internet if election workers then use USB sticks to bring data from an infected system into the election management system."
"Several other particularly worrisome vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to forge cards used in the machines by technicians, giving the attacker access to a machine that would allow the software to be changed, Halderman said."

"The Constitution of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed."
- Thomas Jefferson, letter to to John Cartwright, 5 June 1824
"The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms."

The U.S. currently has THE LEAST RESTRICTIVE and MOST RADICALLY PERMISSIVE abortion policy in western world.
In fact, most European countries restrict elective abortions after 12 weeks & none allow it after 24 weeks)
Even WaPo had to admit this (thread⬇️)
5 years ago, Washington Post's "Fact Checkers" were surprised to learn that the Trump Administration was actually CORRECT in stating:
“[Only] seven out of 198 nations allow elective abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy.”
In fact, relative to the United States, ONLY 3 countries ON EARTH have fewer restrictions on abortions (North Korea, Vietnam, & China) and they're not exactly paragons of virtue ...
