Readers!

 

It is now July, time once again to celebrate the start of this webpage in 2010 with my annual July fund-raising campaign.

 

This year I celebrate the fifteenth anniversary since I began Behind the Black. During that time I have done more than 33,000 posts, mostly covering the global space industry and the related planetary and astronomical science that comes from it. Along the way I have also felt compelled as a free American citizen to regularly post my thoughts on the politics and culture of the time, partly because I think it is important for free Americans to do so, and partly because those politics and that culture have a direct impact on the future of our civilization and its on-going efforts to explore and eventually colonize the solar system.

 

You can’t understand one without understanding the other.

 

Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent independent analysis you don’t find elsewhere. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn’t influenced by donations by established companies or political movements. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

 

You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:

 

1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.

 

2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
 

3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:

 

4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Report finds 6.9 million people registered to vote in multiple states.

A cross-check of the voter rolls from 28 states has found almost 7 million duplicate registrations.

Note that the head of the organization that issued this report was one of the conservative individuals harassed by the IRS as well as three other government agencies. I guess the Democrats consider it voter suppression (and maybe racist!) to prevent these 7 million people from voting twice.

Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 

The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

    Remember you can ONLY be racist if you are a Republican!
    if you own and pay for votes from non-Whites,
    ie. a Democratic Plantation Owner of the 21st Century;
    you can NEVER BE RACIST no matter what you Do !

    Or import hundreds-of-thousands, turning into millions, across the southern border. We are being sold down stream by the ruling class.

    There is a basic problem with voter registrations around the nation.

    It all stems from a simple problem. Local elections. In most if not all areas of the country you are allowed to vote in local elections if you are a resident of that area. I.E. own a home or rent a place.

    Lets say you live and work in New York but own a vacation home in Florida. Your allowed in many cases to vote local in both.
    Who actually checks to see if you have lived 6 or more months in each area. No one.

    Once people start voting local in an area is just a simple thing to also include state and national elections in their mind. They intend to only vote in one or the other which ever is convenient but eventually the unscrupulous decide that since its just so darn easy to get an absentee ballot they just go ahead and ask for one from what ever state they are not in and cast a vote in both.

    Pretty soon its habit. No one is getting hurt so its not like its committing a real crime.In their minds.

    And thats just how an average person might do it. Add in a few thousand rabid political hounds and they could end up finding ways to vote 4, 5 or even 6 times or more in each election. Let alone all the votes they can personally influence among their friends and acquaintances at the mental home or elderly care facility.

    With computer technology and digital voting they could easily check each SS number for multiple voting. First check the local election for someone casting multiple votes locally then state wide for multiple counties and then nationally for multiple states.

    All votes are now tied to your SS number. Sorry but its the fastest and safest way.
