#2242: the professionals behind the protests and riots
Elle Purnell _Federalist_
you don’t have to be a legal expert to understand these fundamental things about what makes elections free & secure
"A Morning Consult poll commissioned by the Public Affairs Council last fall found that just 37% of [USA residents] believe the 2024 election «will be both honest and open to all eligible voters». A University of Central Florida exit poll in January found that a third -- 33.5% -- of voters were either «not very» or «not at all» confident the 2024 election would be conducted fairly... Lax policies that make it more likely election officials don't know who a voter is, where he lives, whether he is eligible to vote, or even whether he has already voted invite chaos and undermine order. &Nbsp; Bad actors can more easily take advantage of bad election laws, and innocent Americans can also unknowingly err when the rules aren't clear and precise. When ballot traffickers dump piles of ballots they've supposedly collected from individual voters into un-supervised ballot boxes, it [eliminates] each ballot's chain of custody. When voter registration forms are automatically and indiscriminately mailed, including to people who aren't eligible to vote, it creates room for error or misuse. When voter rolls are bloated and never cleaned, it makes elections messier and therefore less secure. Illegitimate Votes Cancel Out Legal Votes... Sunlight Is the Best Disinfectant... When ballot counters force volunteer poll watchers [observers/ challengers, the term varies from state to state] to stand so far away they can't meaningfully observe tabulation, or allegedly tell them to go home and then secretly start counting ballots again [& sometimes some of them again & again], what is it they don't want the poll watchers to watch? When people push for unsupervised ballot drop boxes, what behaviors don't they think need to be supervised? A good indicator that something is being hidden is the fact that someone is trying to hide it...."
Chain of custody should be ensured by requiring more than one poll/elections worker affiliated with different political parties to keep their eyes on sealed containers of ballots and counter-sign exchange documents and receipts.

estimates of jobs dearth/insufficiency/short-fall/shortage for men (by "race" &/or ethnicity)
For men, the aggregate employed ÷ population ratio (the work rate or employment rate) since 1948 is at about 65.18%, down from the record best of about 88.2%, & up from the record worst of about 57.1%.
For "blacks", the aggregate employed ÷ population ratio is at 61.653%.
For "Asians", the aggregate employed ÷ population ratio is at 69.399%.
For "whites", aggregate employed ÷ population ratio is at 65.515%.
For "Hispanics"/"Latinos", aggregate employed ÷ population ratio is at 72.26%.

For "Asian" men, the employed ÷ population ratio is at about 69.399%.
For "white" men, the employed ÷ population ratio is at about 65.515%.
For "Hispanic"/"Latino" men, the employed ÷ population ratio (employment rate or work rate) is at about 72.26%.

The number being gigged/ temped/ contingently employed/ on short-term contract/ consulting/ scrabbling, the number seeking real/ "traditional" long-term employment and the number of real/ traditional long-term jobs employers are seeking to fill are not reported.
BLS does not track the numbers gigged, temped, bodyshopped, on contract, contingent or consulting positions who would prefer "real", "traditional", long-term employment... though about once every 15-25 years someone writes an article for the _Monthly Labor Review_.
Men constitute 48.75% of the civilian, non-institutionalized population 16-years or older; women 51.25%; "blacks" 13.03%; "Asians" 6.65%; "whites" 76.41%; "Hispanics"/"Latinos" 18.15%.
In 1850 (the year before the American Party, later called the Know Nothings) was founded, USA population foreign-born was 9.68%; in 1860, 13.16%; in 1870, 14.44%; in 1880, 13.3%, by which time the USA frontiers were no more & we had begun to "in-fill", i.e. crowd; in 1890, 14.77%; in 1900, the percentage of population foreign-born was 13.6%; in 1910, 14.7%; in 1920, 13.2%; in 1930, 11.6%; in 1940, 8.8%; in 1950, 6.9%; in 1960, 5.4%; in 1970, 4.7%; in 1980, 6.2%; in 1990, 7.9%; in 2000, 11.1%; in 2001, 11.38%; in 2002, 11.5%; in 2003, 11.7%; in 2004, 11.8%; in 2005, 12.1%; in 2006, 12.1%; in 2007, 12.6%; in 2008, 12.5%; in 2009, 12.2%; in 2010, 12.9%; in 2011, 13%; in 2012, 13.1%... 14.3% (47M) in 2022 April... projected by census bureau to be 15.2% by 2030, 16.1% by 2040.
foreign-born, non-institutionalized population 16 years old and older (both citizens & non-citizens) = 47.089M

percentage of native, non-institutionalized population 16 years and older who are employed = 59.6% (down from record high of 88%)
It is also interesting that the employed ÷ population per-centages for those with at least the equivalent of bachelor's degrees, those with some college, & those with HS diplomas or equivalent have been falling for several decades, while the employed÷population per-centages for those without a HS diploma have been generally rising. This is another case where it would have been nice to have such data going back to, e.g. 1900 to have a decent base-lines, but what older statistics exist are incommensurable. (Employed ÷ population per-centages
for those with at least the equivalent of bachelor's degrees were 78.8% in 1992, 79.8% in 1994 Oct, 71.5% in 2023 Oct, 71.4% in 2023 Nov, 70.9%% in 2023 Dec, 71.3% in 2024 April;
for those with some college were 71.0% in 1992, 73% in 1989 Nov, 61.3% in 2023 January, 61% in 2023 Oct, 61% in 2023 Nov, 60.6% in 2023 Dec, 60.4% in 2024 Jan, 61% in 2024 April;

uncounted millions more are being gigged/ temped/ bodyshopped/ contracted/ consultanted, contingently employed, etc. (it sometimes seems they hatch another euphemism, another dodge, another deception every month), but are seeking real, traditional, long-term employment -- career-paths & careers, not gigs.

Andrew R. Arthur _Center for Immigration Studies_
USCIS statistics high-lith focus of Obummer-BiteMe-Harass-Mayorkas regime: it is on getting inadmissible aliens work cards, not worrying about immigrants properly applying for visas, undergoing background investigations, being interviewed to screen them
"...At the end of the third quarter of FY2019, for example, it shows that USCIS had about 330K pending asylum applications (Form I-589), about 753K pending employment authorization applications (Form I-765), more than 1.5M Petitions for Alien Relative (Form I-130), and around 35K Immigrant Petitions for Alien Workers (Form I-140). One year later, at the end of the third quarter of FY2020, the number of asylum applications waiting for adjudication sat near 374K, there were about 604K employment authorization applications, about 1.45M immediate relative petitions, and just over 47K pending I-140s for alien workers... In FY 2022, however, Biden’s first full year in office, apprehensions exceeded 2.2N, and while 1.054 million of those aliens were expelled under Title 42, 1.152M others were processed under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), instead. Most of them (more than 88.5% by my count) were released -- despite the fact that the INA [Immigration and Naturalization Act] requires them all to be detained..."

a better way to counter hatred of Jews at USA schools, colleges, universities
"Perhaps just this one time, rather than focusing on unconstitutional means of policing hateful speech, we could stop letting the haters into the country."

Mike Berry _Daily Caller_
will state & local governments/elections officials take conscientious measures to keep non-citizens from unlawfully voting this year?
"if just 0.4% of these 11M illegally cast a ballot, that would mean roughly 44K illegal votes; put into context, that is approximately the 2020 margin separating the top two candidates in Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin, combined."

Leo Terrell & Victor Davis Hanson on Life, Liberty, & Levin; "Dgwiaz" over 100K people per year in the USA have been dying from fentanyl since the Obummer-BiteMe-Harass-Mayorkas have refused to defend USA borders against invaders, drug importers, hostile foreign operatives, etc.
