US Senate Votes to Limit Debate on Amy Coney Barrett’s Nomination for Supreme Court Post

The final vote on 48-year-old Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination as a new justice is expected to be held on 26 October.

Sputnik is airing live from the US Senate, which has held an essential procedural vote on Sunday to limit debate on Judge Amy Coney Barrett's Supreme Court nomination, paving the way for a final confirmation vote slated for Monday.

Congressional Democrats have meanwhile been looking to prevent the conservative judge from being elevated to the top court role, accusing the GOP of rushing the confirmation ahead of the presidential election. Regardless, the nomination for the SCOTUS seat, which was left vacant after the death of prominent liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg last month, is expected to succeed with the support of most Senate Republicans, who hold a majority in the upper chamber of Congress.

'Senate is Very Tough': Trump Doubts Republicans Will Keep Majority in Upper Chamber, US Media Says

The Dems have put Obama’s healthcare reform, referred to as Obamacare, at the centre of their opposition to the nomination of Barrett, who earlier voiced criticism of it.

While the Democrats for their part continue to endorse Obamacare, the Supreme Court is due to hear arguments in the case involving it on 10 November.

Air Force One touched down in Maine at 3:05 p.m. after an uneventful and brief flight, with more colorful fall foliage dotting the landscape on our way in.

The president made brief comments to the pool, but he was some distance away and it was difficult to hear. Pool will circle back when we have clarity on his comments.

We are motorcading at 3:17 and still in the dark on specifics for this stop, though your pooler would note that this local reporter is saying POTUS may be headed for an area orchard:

NYPD Suspends Officer For Saying “Trump 2020” Over Loud Speaker While Being Taunted by Antifa

The New York City Police Department has suspended an officer without pay after he was filmed saying “Trump 2020” over a loud speaker while a member of Antifa taunted him.

NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea said that the incident was “one hundred percent unacceptable.”

In the video, a member of Antifa is heard repeatedly screeching at the officer, calling him a fascist and demanding that he say he supports Trump.

After the video began to go viral, the NYPD News account tweeted that the Brooklyn South Investigation Unit was investigating the matter.

NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea tweeted that “Law Enforcement must remain apolitical, it is essential in our role to serve ALL New Yorkers regardless of any political beliefs.”

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio also commented on the footage on Twitter, saying “Let me be clear: ANY NYPD Officer pushing ANY political agenda while on duty will face consequences. We will act fast here, and this will not be tolerated.”

On Sunday afternoon, the NYPD announced that the officer is suspended without pay effective immediately while he was under investigation.

The Police Benevolent Association, one of the largest police unions representing New York City officers, has enthusiastically endorsed President Donald Trump’s reelection.

I’ve never seen spontaneous outbursts of support like this in my lifetime. The last president that had anything like this was John Kennedy. The irony is that the support is coming from quarters the fake news deny: diverse, thinking, and, yes, truly progressive Americans.

The insane grassroots energy all over the country for @realDonaldTrump is unprecedented. I’ve never seen anything like it in American history where voters are organizing their own parades & rallies in every state. Keep that energy voting and he wins! Don’t believe polls!

Here's more on the spike. Some in notables already.

Searches for “can I change my vote” surged on Sunday evening following the bombshell sex tape and email leaks from Hunter Biden’s laptop, including in the crucial swing state Pennsylvania.

While Google Trends does not provide the exact number of searches, they index them on a scale of 1-100 based on the number of searches above the average.

When looking at interest by region, Utah, Idaho and Pennsylvania had the most searches, respectively, followed by New Mexico, Michigan, Arizona, Missouri, Nevada, Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Interest in people changing their votes surged just before 11 p.m., as Hunter Biden’s laptop contents began to go viral. They included sex tapes, elicit photos, footage of him smoking crack with what appears to be prostitutes, and more.

There were also emails that appear to point to corruption with his father, Joe Biden, and an effort by Hunter Biden to avoid having to register as a foreign agent for his dealings with China.

Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, and Mississippi do allow voters to change their votes after early voting.

Wisconsin: voters who voted early in person can recast their ballot as long as they do so by Saturday, October 31st. The deadline for absentee varies by city. People who wish to change their vote should contact their city clerk for more information.

Minnesota: absentee voters can change their votes up to a week before the election.

Michigan: absentee voters can change their ballots if they have not yet been processed and tabulated. Those who wish to change their ballot should contact their city clerk within a few days of the election.

Pennsylvania; New York; Connecticut; and Mississippi: Contact your city clerk to change your vote.

Big Tech Panicking – Trump’s Grassroots MAGA Army Working Around Platform Controls

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/10/25/big-tech-panicking-trumps-grassroots-maga-army-working-around-platform-controls/

A diverse and patriotic MAGA movement is overwhelming the mechanisms of narrative control; and they are doing it by flooding the zones with a combination of “old school” and “modern tech” workarounds. It’s quite honestly the most remarkable political dynamic since the organic Tea Party erupted in 2009.

Before getting into the details of how this truly organic situation is unfolding it is worth looking at how big tech is freaking out

“A right-wing offensive” is the 2020 narrative equivalent to Clinton’s vast Russian conspiracy theory. The truth is Big Tech is getting their ass kicked by the American electorate and they are freaking out about how visible, in-your-face, unapologetic and dramatic the MAGA activism has become. Thus blame-casting is needed.

You know they are getting their asses kicked when they have to create a political enemy to blame; real or imagined it matters not, the point is to create some “other” in an attempt to avoid confronting reality. Remember, Alinsky created their rule book and process.

Here’s what is happening… really just an affirmation of what everyone is noticing and talking about…. and it is wonderful.

A combination of what I would call “old school” activism is taking place everywhere. Car parades, boat parades, marches, rallies and massive swarms of American MAGA supporters are literally flooding the political space in a scale that makes it impossible to ignore.

To make the marches even more effective a really smart organic approach has started and we now see Trump rallies and marches targeted to the exact event venues where Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are showing up.

The Trump supporters easily outnumber the Biden supporters by 20:1 or more. The magnitude of the MAGAnitude is incredible. This is totally organic, but word has spread and now it is happening everywhere.

Remember Poland circa early ’80’s when it was said: “we took to the streets and realized for the first time there were more of us than them”?… and thus the government control over the Polish people almost immediately started to collapse. Well, the control of the manipulative narrative engineers is suffering a similar fate in this election as the MAGA coalition assembles in astonishing scale.

I cannot even believe I am saying this… but the MAGA movement in-person and in the digital sphere is actually, well, WINNING.
