JHK’s Three-Act Play

The mighty Shakespeare in his direst night sweats could not have conjured up the Clinton family in all their sharp angles and dark corners, but we can try to reconstruct the scene last week on Loretta Lynch’s plane out on the Phoenix airport tarmac. Former president Bill steps aboard:
Loretta: What the fuck are you doing here?
Bill: I just had to tell you what Charlotte did last week.
Loretta: Who the fuck is Charlotte?
Bill: Our grand-kid. She’s turning into a good little earner.
Loretta: We can’t meet like this. We’re about to depose your wife.
Bill: Charlotte gave a speech to the whole Citibank C-suite.
Loretta: I don’t give a fuck. Get off my plane right now!
Bill: Well, I don’t know if ‘speech’ is the right word. She gurgles nice.
Loretta: I guess you didn’t hear me.
Bill: She pulled in fifty grand for that. Of course it was a hundred percent remitted to the foundation. Well, bye now. (Exits plane).
I have a theory about the Clinton family dynamic. Bill does not want Hillary to win because he doesn’t want to live in the White House again. For sure he does not want to live with The Flying Reptile, but he especially doesn’t want to be on display in that fishbowl where folks pretty much can see what you’re up to 24/7. For one thing, “The Energizer” can’t discreetly come and go. But he certainly doesn’t want to concern himself as “First Husband” or “First Gentleman” (title TBD) with deciding which fabric to choose in replacing the East Room draperies. So Bill decided to fix things for sure with that innocent visit to the US Attorney General’s airplane to talk about grand-kids.
It seems to be working. If there was any question that Loretta Lynch could just sit on her hands about Hillary’s email investigation through the November election, it went up in a vapor last week. It also left FBI director on the hot seat because now he will have to either cough up a referral to Justice Department prosecutors, or he’ll have some ‘splainin to do in the heat of a presidential election campaign. If you thought Watergate was a ripe peach, this one is beginning to look like a stinking durian (Durio zibethinus).
Both The New York Times and the WashPo are spinning the Hillary email scandal as being about security protocols, which is to say they are deliberately putting too fine a point on the matter as a ruse to deflect from the deeper issue: namely, did Hillary as Secretary of State use her office to shovel money from sources in foreign lands into her family foundation? It sure looks that way if you match the contributions from foreign lands to the arms sale deals she approved as part of her official duties. In any case, whatever connection there might be between those arms deals and the foundation revenue, is there not under any circumstances some obvious conflict of interest (and legal liability) about a secretary of state doing personal business with foreign governments?
This matter is swelling like an abscess ready to burst just as the Hon (?) Debbie Wasserman Schultz whacks the gavel to open the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Bernie’s troops will be ready to rock and roll both inside and outside the convention, with perhaps some diversionary skirmishes by the Black Lives Matter cadres. Throw in another “Lone Wolf” massacre, say, at a cheese-steak stand and you can kiss the Democratic Party goodbye.
Note that this convergence of bad karma will take place against the background of deteriorating events on the banking scene. The European banks in particular are melting away to nothing while European Union officials wring their hands in prayer. You can bet it’s going to affect all the global banks, daisy-chained as they are in counterparty obligations. Somewhere in a dark subterranean chamber, the magma of financial derivatives is getting ready to blow.
Happy Independence Day everybody! Who needs space aliens when we’ve got Hillary and Trump?

“Somewhere in a dark subterranean chamber, the magma of financial derivatives is getting ready to blow.”
As far as financial issues are concerned, let’s see what happens this fall when the agricultural futures contracts come due. Because of the subsidies associated with these, all other commodities will be sold short if need be to preserve the margins. In anticipation of that late last summer ALL commodities futures (including petroleum futures) were sold short in order to raise the cash needed to honor those coveted agricultural futures contracts. My sense is that this will be repeated again in just a few weeks. And this year the financials might just a tad more brittle that last year.
Let’s see.
I like how in so many places you could see pundits with some variation of head-scratching and a seemingly surprised “Gee, that was really bad judgement on Bill Clinton’s part.” You can only laugh… “Bad Judgement?” Bad judgement is Bill Clinton’s middle name!
But now I think the strange, inscrutable nature of the Clintons’ marriage (political partnership/competition?) may have more to do with Bill’s stunt, as described here. Loretta Lynch: now THAT was bad judgement and borders on illegal. (Or maybe SHE doesn’t want Hillary, either?)
This is going to be a remarkable month. The FBI has get their sh*t together and wrap up this godda*mn investigation.
“Bad judgement is Bill Clinton’s middle name!” Combined with what is generally a shrewd political instinct, which comes from his big head. It’s when he listens to his little head that I worry!
That ties back into our host’s post today. I have my doubts that Bill doesn’t want Hillary to win the White House. I think he actually does. Instead, I think he doesn’t want his wife to win the White House without his actions to help her being noticed. The problem is that he oversteps what is wise and seemly for a political spouse in his efforts to be seen helping her and some of his “help” is counterproductive in assisting Hillary, even if they work very well in focusing attention on himself. Secondary gains and all that.
Of course, if our host is right, then the contest becomes who wants the White House less, the Clintons or Trump. I think Trump may want to be President, but he doesn’t want to do what is necessary to win it or actually do the work. Hillary does, regardless of her husband’s passive-aggressive assistance. Advantage Clinton.
That’s reflected in the polls. Wednesday, a poll showed Clinton leading Trump by seventeen points in Michigan. The next day, another poll showed Clinton leading Trump in Michigan by fifteen percent. Factoring in both those polls, Nate Sillver of FiveThirtyEight gave Clinton a ninety-one percent chance of winning the state, Trump at just over nine percent, and Johnson at two-tenths of a percent. Her “damned emails?” What “damned emails?”
Neon,
As a native Detroiter and one who has been here my entire life, the folks in this town have always been for the Democratic Party From its long history with the UAW. Anytime a politician smiles down on them, they think they have a chance of becoming a house “slave”, and not a field “slave”. The PTB didn’t have to dumb down this populance, it was.
Jim, congratulations on publication of the fourth volume. Now I can complete my set.
The Clintons may be world-champion influence peddlers, but it’s increasingly hard to see why anyone cares. Corruption is a way of life in America. In the Teapot Dome scandal, one guy got convicted of accepting a bribe that no one was ever convicted for offering. Now it’s reached the point where the Supreme Court openly shrugs its shoulders at a governor who sold out the public trust for a ride in a Ferrari. Show me things going the other direction for once, then I’ll act surprised.
The good part of what’s been going on, at least since Trump drank the other Republican candidates’ milkshake, is that the stakes are getting more out in the open every day: in addition to right versus left, it’s now clearly elites (including the center-left) versus everyone else.
You folks on the Left seem to hold more hope that the Clinton racket gets busted than what remains of the ruins of conservatism.
She skates because the arms racketeering was roughly in line with what could be called policy in the District of Lunacy.
See the ending to a great film “Lord of War” a film not given its due because too many of the critics wanted to bury it because the main character was a phony Refusenick from the Ukraine. All white men are not created equal.
I hope she skates and I hope she takes scalps on the left…
It’s not fair to Declinists such as myself that Obama gets to skate away on a phony bubble economy. It is like Jim Jones stepping over the bodies to go live out his life in luxurious exile in Hawaii.
I want you gentle liberal folk to insist upon a third term for his excellency, Paul Ryan will approve.
But I am torn, will the Left’s rhetoric become more unhinged with a third Obama term maybe with Hillary as stand in cult leader or will it come totally unglued with Herr Trump on the golden throne (he likes gold)?
Of course none of you believe me but the rhetoric one reads at places like Kos and DU reads like Jim Jones’ last speech. You really are “thought lead” by people who are like zombie mutant killers, eyes rolled back and teeth a snappin.
Much better an Obama third term than the Wicked Witch of NY. Damn that 22nd Amendment.
Perhaps not a 3rd Obama term but, a Congressionally appointed term for Joe Biden. That would happen only if the Establishment parties fall apart and are unable to present their respective puppets.
The precedent is ancient and Congress would have to reach back to the Virginia Plan, drafted by James Madison in 1787. It foresaw the circus madness of popular election of a POTUS and the evils it would spawn. The Virginia Plan would have Congress elect the POTUS.
Only after looking at what we’ve had for the past century or more, the quality of politics would be vastly superior if the Virginia Plan had been implemented to start with.
I told me so. For the little people like me to take a classified document and cross post it I would never see the light of day ever again, except in the prison exercise yard, if I had those privileges.
I really hope her supporters rub it in the conservative’s faces.
I want the State to lose legitimacy and I want the American Empire gone.
Progressives I want you to lose your rackets. Conservatives I want you to grow up and leave the year 1945 in the past, and damn well stop worshipping uniforms.
Thank you Bill and Hillary Clinton
Obama makes Joseph Nkomo and Robert Mugabe look respectable, and he is the leader of the “free world” and he turns out to be a passive aggressive lunatic.
Thanks folks, really, and you think the Clinton’s are going to take this ruling political coalition and make America better?
Newworld,
I’m on the left and I would love to see the Clintons go down in flames. Just to be clear, seeing both Clintons doing a perp walk in matching orange jump suits would make my day, week, month, year, decade and possibly all of the 21st century.
But I’m realistic enough to know that ain’t happening with the Obama (in)justice department running the show.
So, you’ll get to see her “skate”, but be prepared for 8 years of on-going failed impeachments.
As for “taking scalps”, both Clintons and Obama have used the left like blow-up dolls.
As a right winger I will admit there are many issues I would work with the left on, but since progressiveness is a jobs racket where the players are now convinced it is a zero sum game of loot it before someone else does I think its all toast.
Now we on the Right realize that in the Left metacult the cruelty artists now hold the whip hand.
Life sucks I guess but for you decent folk of the Left you will lose your safe spaces as this goes forward and it won’t be the gated community armed guards cruelty artists that will lose any sleep, psychopaths sleep well, it will be you who is blamed.
My wife was sleeping upstairs as I was reading this latest CFN post, and I think i woke her up by literally laughing out loud!
I totally despise the term “grandkid” as a substitute for “grandchild”. It’s widespread adoption in the past five years or so is a fair indicator of our civilizational decline. How appropriate then that sleazy Bill Clinton, above, calls his grandchild “grandkid”.
Thanks for the excerpt. Not since Manhattan Gothic has writing shone so brightly.
I have to admit that I never got through “A World Made by Hand”, stopping when those psychedelic descriptions amped up, however, I remain a loyal reader.
Hello JHK. I just ordered The Harrows of Spring from Amazon. I loved the first 3 books of the series, despite a few error and debatable points. (It takes a combination of corn meal and flour to make cornbread; cornmeal alone won’t do.) The social and technical aspects of a post-apocalyptic society fascinate me. Your vision looks like the old west circa 1870. In my vision the world looks like Haiti; poor, corrupt, and brutal with a few rich on top.
I guess I’ll have to tell my wife, then, that the excellent cornbread she makes with our home-grown cornmeal alone isn’t really cornbread.
You grow cornmeal~?~
That surely must save time on the old-time grinding process.
I only write this stuff to make myself laugh.
~toktomi~
No one else laughed. The world needs more smart people and fewer smart asses.
I believe Slick Willie wants another turn in the free government housing so he can be the first first husband and notch the four-poster bed in the Lincoln bedroom as many times as his pacemaker and Rodans schedule will permit.
Jim, your projections about the fun and frolic potential in Philly seems rather like you have been either casting bones or talking to some black bag fellers from the Alphabet Soup Company.
Have a happy, safe and sane Independance Day CFNers!
Enjoy this Fourth of July!
Yes, indeed this election looks like two hated/hateful individuals doing everything they can to not hold the Hot Potato of power in the dying empire. With all the things happening to the global financial casino of our making, there’s gonna be some big blow-back and who wants to be in power when that happens. (It’s Advanced Friedmanism)
Trump is a whole subject onto himself with the latest twitter with Hillary, money and the Star of David. Mhmmmmm…..Don’t tell me he wants to be holding the bag…
And Obama looks as happy as can be about leaving….can’t wait.
So when Bill left the WH in 2000 he made a statement that he and Hillary want to make history by getting back into the WH.—But this moment in time may have given him buyers remorse.
Indeed this is a clear case of racketeering and the Trumpmeister is pretty filthy too in his business dealing and not paying people, etc….
I say the idea of statesmanship world wide is dead…..What’s left is technocrats leading the CEO class and bankster oligarchs in the brave new world of the end of democracy everywhere….
No representation for the teeming billions who’s wealth is being extracted.
Oh, lest I forget all this over the death of a living planet in favor of the dead planet Mars by those who think they can escape their sins.
If there was a god it would make it clear—-clean up your mess before you defile another planet.
Putin has all the dirt on Hillary so, he will determine her fate. Now…, under what conditions or political calculation he reveals it is anybody’s guess.
To reveal all the dead bodies and Flying Monkeys NOW would devastate Hillary Rodan but, there would still be enough time to crank up a new crisis or circus to distract We Teh Sheep and make her look “Presidential” again.” It doesn’t matter one whit what We Teh Sheep think. The MSM is, by fiat, the reflection of the common rabble and, if the MSM is fine with Hillary, then that automatically means that Teh Sheep are fine with Hillary.
Perhaps Putin can orchestrate an October Surprise with Hillary Rodan’s e-mails. October is cutting it awfully close and the MSM can do a serious hatchet job on Trump between now and then. If Trump can’t amp up his pathetic organization, vocabulary, and public speaking skills, the Lies will overpower him and Hillary will win on sheer momentum DESPITE Putin releasing all the e-mails.
If the entire race collapses and no candidates from either ZOG-approved party are available, this will give Obama the chance to ask Congress to appoint Joe Biden as President after he leaves office. I’m sure, buried DEEP in Bush and Cheney’s NWO architecture, are provisions to do just that. The entire objective is to repeal the very idea of popular election of the POTUS and orchestrate a total collapse of that process. Thus, conditioning We Teh Sheep to accept an appointed POTUS because some fabricated crisis.
If that were true then I would think Putin would reveal what he knows at the moment that would benefit Russia and her allies the most. The most important thing to Putin is the drive a wedge into dollar hegemony and make America weaker economically and militarily. Unless it would result in war. Our military advantage would linger even if the dollar was no longer the world’s reserve currency. So picking the time is tricky. Non-democratic foreign nations have frequently misjudged our politics.
It seems to me that the best time would be AFTER a Hillary win in November but before she takes office. It might mean she becomes President anyway but as a weakened President who might be impeached.
How did I miss the scenario in your last sentence???
Yes, that is a gamble BUT, a weak Hillary will only give us the same hand puppets that we’ve had already i.e. Obama and GW Bush.
By design, only a candidate who is completely vulnerable to blackmail is permitted to occupy the Oval Office. Who knows what kind of skeletons are in Trump’s closet but, Hillary is sitting on top of the Khmer Rouge’s Mountain of Bones in comparison! We only see the skulls on the surface of the great pile.
But…, its the hidden political treasures deep inside, where the flesh, entrails, and evidence have not been disturbed, those treasures Hillary would keep hidden at any cost. Even if it means her ZOG Handlers blackmail her to drive straight for WW3 and make it look like Moscow started it!
Dmitry Orlov writes that Russia’s weapons technology is far superior to ours. I hope he’s correct.
I am compelled to ask you James that even in your wildest dreams you ever thought it remotely possible that the grand old nation in which we grew up could ever degrade to the point that it has degraded to today? I am certainly depressingly stunned by the slide into retardation. And how about that “rule of law” once touted as the centerpiece of the once mighty Republic? It is far better described today as the “Rule of the Dogs”!
Last week I was compelled to retain an attorney to represent me against my own Township Committee of which I am a member. The flagrant law breaking by this body including acts felony have reached the point of mandated action on my part. In the discussion of what action to take, the possibility of lawsuit itself was quickly dismissed as fruitless after my attorney described an almost identical case he was involved in where the judge (in the next county over) determined that while that Township governing body did in fact break multiple laws, doing so was not all that uncommon by municipal government and therefore for some strange reason acceptable in his estimation.
Yes, it has degraded to the level of the Beverly Hillbillies on Crack.
Far be it from me to defend the Clintons, but let’s get real here for a moment.
Why in the hell did Cheney not go to prison for massaging the facts in a rush to war that left 4,000+ Americans dead in Iraq?
That’s why I could care less about Hillary’s e-mail server. We had a war criminal go free after getting so many in our military murdered, for no reason at all beyond Neocon fantasies of a big Risk-game in the Middle East. Benghazi–on so many GOP rear bumpers–pales in comparison.
I’m more angry at Hillary for voting for the Iraq War, the biggest US foreign-policy mistake since Vietnam, than I am over her mistakes about Libya.
Bro Jobe: “Why in the hell did Cheney not go to prison”?
Because there are two sets of Americans today. These sets are defined by their relationship to the police. There are the ones that the police work for, and everyone else. Anyone interested in the details of how this all works in practice can start by reading Matt Taibbi’s The Divide and go from there.
And the sad and frightening reality of this is that the “law enforcement” agencies exist to ONLY enforce the laws that pertain to the civilian population and NOT the politicians. As a lawmaker myself I swear to you all that there is NO authority that is in the business of enforcing laws that the politicians are supposedly required to obey. The Prosecutor’s Offices refuse to get involved, forget about the police, and the courts no longer even care to consider law enforcement to those who rule. I am NOT making this up, I am actually living it right now and it is FACT! Lawmakers are above the law and the clowns in the black dresses as well as the idiots with the sunglasses and the Uzi’s are all in business to assure that this never changes. Give it up people, the is NO hope, there is only dope and that is available in large quantities for good reason….
It sounds as though you have accepted corruption because Dick Cheney got away with it (he is probably the MOST evil man yet alive today) and I hope I am incorrect because that is what allows corruption to spread, acceptance by the electorate. Sure he was corrupt and so was Bush the First and Regan and Johnson and Nixon and all the rest after the JFK murder. Jimmy Carter may have been a decent fellow, but look how that worked out for us all.
Yes America has accepted corruption as the norm and frankly I cannot be too harsh on her for what choice were we given anyway? Nonetheless, the doom we shall get is the doom we have earned even though we had no choice. Embrace corruption for it is what we do!
Political money is protected by the First Amendment as “speech.” That is not a recent as in Citizens United, but goes back to the 1970s. Furthermore, political corruption itself goes all the way back to George Washington before the US even became a country.
That said, direct bribery (quid pro quo) is still illegal. It is just difficult to discover and even more difficult to prove. But it is not by accident or bribery itself. Rough and tumble (and borderline criminal) politics has always been protected by the Supreme Court, but it’s not that political corruption is never prosecuted or punished. In a 10 year period from the mid 1990s until about 2005 there were over 400 convictions for corruption in Illinois alone.

Addendum: I said the police, but I really mean all law enforcement. When the next financial crisis hits, which it will, a generous portion of the blame will belong to Eric Holder’s Justice department for doing nothing about the causes of the previous one.
He was the worst Attorney General in US History. He openly said he would not prosecute people of his own race when the Black Panthers terrorized White voters. And as soon as he called for a dialogue on race – as if we ever talk about anything else – he immediately called Whites cowards, making any such discussion impossible.
He was no better than Obama, King, or Mandela. A monster.
Really? Holder was worse than John Mitchell? Or is it just that he is black? (non-white)
Obviously he was worse. John Mitchell was just involved in unpleasant party politics. Holder was screwing the entire Nation, except for his blood brothers. But you’re fine with his racism but not ours. Perverse.
John Mitchell spent 19 months in prison for his involvement in Watergate.
And how much time has Holder done?
He did exactly what he was paid to do.
Unbridled capitalism at its finest.
Vincent Bugliosi wrote a nice book, The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder (2008), in which he points out that there is no statute of limitations on murder.
Bro Jobe, Why whitewash Hillary’s exceedingly poor judgment on Libya (and, I’m not talking about Benghazi, which was a very minor incident that the GOP blew way out of proportion). Killing Khadafi and destroying Libya is the gift that keeps on giving. Khadafi had said that without him, there would be a huge invasion of Africans into Europe. Europe is paying the price for Hillary’s totally unnecessary, stupid war.
Not that different from the destruction of Iraq, another gift that keeps on giving.
But when you look at US foreign policy without the distortion of corporate party red vs corporate party blue, you’ll see that there has been no change over at least the last 16 years.
You’re putting together quite a body of work, Jim. Congratulations on the publication of ‘The Harrows of Spring’. (I’m going to try to make it up to Manchester VT next Sat.)
Many writers are pretty much burned out by the time they get into their 60s. Hell, many don’t even make it into their 50s — DH Lawrence, Jack Kerouac, George Orwell, and Malcolm Lowry all died at age 47! Ken Kesey was finished at 30! Paul Theroux, a contemporary of yours (do you know him? I’ve read in person he’s a little misanthropic), also, is still writing interesting books, ‘Deep South’ being his last one; two authors of the same generation who have seen much of life, and despite your political inclinations, have written about it honestly!
This is the last of the ‘World Made by Hand’ series. Is a general ‘summing up’ in the offing, like ‘The Education of Henry Adams’, a look at the past, and predictions for the future?
brh
Was reading a little about one of your heroes, Chesty Puller. One time in Korea, a Priest ordered a busy young man to take charge of four prisoners. The young soldier protested strongly saying he had to get some munitions or something. The Priest insisted. The young soldier then said, These are now my prisoners? The Priest said, Yes. The soldier then sprayed them with machine gun fire. The outraged priest demanded that Chesty arrest him. Chesty complied, only to release him and give him a promotion (“a bar”) a few miles away.
To me this is a fascinating story. Are both Chesty and the young soldier war criminals? Or were they just doing what it takes to win any war? Was the Priest wrong to have commanded him to stop what he was doing? Obviously a mistake, but was he morally wrong? Could any war be won with such priests hanging around?
I know your answer. You say go for it. And you may be right: the West wasn’t won by being nice nor will we keep our country that way. Was there always this conflict? Was it ever any different? Apparently it was: at times war was mostly fought between gentlemen. As General Sherman said, based on what he learned at West Point, he deserved execution for his treatment of the South.
Terror works. There was a General out this way famous for his execution of Indians and the mass killing of horses to clip their wings and keep them from raiding. Everyone hates him now and nitpicks his decisions. He was wrong about a chief he had put to death for example. But how many times was he right? How many lives of Whites did he save?
Muslims are doing the same thing to us in Europe. And Blacks and Hispanics here as well. Truly Satan is the King of this World. And as St Paul said, spirituality is foolishness to the man of the world. You can have Chesty or St Francis, but not both at the same time and place. You have no doubts: Chesty. I see the need for both at different times, and even when going with one, the other must be kept in mind. But we are definitely coming to a Chesty phase. Francis is going to have hide his eyes. We will have much to confess and repent of.
You are correct in what you say of General Sherman in that his instruction at his Rockbound Highland Home included specific disciplines that were intended to prevent military action from transitioning into outright murder. This remained true for our Class of 1976 as well and was evidenced when Stanley McChrystal stated to Old Monkey Ears that “for every civilian casualty he caused in the Middle East he created ten insurgents. Of course Stan was immediately replaced and then quickly retired, clear evidence that when scum takes over the role of government, Robert’s Rules are quickly replaced by Blackbeard’s Rules of Booty. Those of us who took our instruction seriously are now unfit for service to a nation ruled by thieves and so either have to die off or be rooted out and eliminated. Frankly I care not which way they choose for if you ask my opinion it is the nation that is unfit for service to me and not I to it.
But can modern wars be won by playing by the rules? Everything is guerilla or fourth generational now. The only way Germany was conquered was by massive atrocities against the civilian population that broke the people. We don’t have what it takes to do that anymore and that’s not completely a bad thing. It just means we can’t win any wars. Didn’t Washington tell us to mind our own business way back at the beginning?
Folks like BRH can’t accept this because WW2 and guys like Chesty are “IT” for him, the epitome of what America is or should be. As I said above, he’s wrong and he’s right. Or as Emerson said, take what you want, but pay the price. And the price of conquering another people might be your own humanity in the best sense.
It’s universal, not something just for Whites. The great Sioux Holy Man, Fools Crow spoke of the corruptions of war, whether it was against other Indians or White Men; of how he spent countless hours with returned veterans, trying to heal their shattered spirits. And the Sioux were very warlike. How do Holy Men like him reconcile that with the inner part of their own religion? Not easily in any case.
Thus any man who goes out to fight another people, as did the North in the War of Northern Aggression, wars against his own soul. And when it’s over, it isn’t over because the war then continues in his own conscience, what to speak of any other horrors he’s seen or perpetrated. So then he must either admit the Truth, or lie about his own virtue. And we always hate those whom we have wronged as witness the treatment of the South after the war or Germany. Thus one corruption leads hard upon the heals of another – and soon we find ourselves ruled by Monsters like Bush, Obama, or God forbid, Hillary.
No war can be “won” my friend, there are only losers on both sides, it is only a matter of degree. Those who win adopt the negative qualities of those whom they defeat and there will never be a war that ends all war unless it wipe us all out in the process. As JS so aptly replies below, those who war, war against their own soul. I can never argue FOR war and must admit that playing at war was an awful lot of fun. It bonds men in ways that no other endeavor seems to do, and so remains the greatest of all shames that this same ability to work together as a cohesive, like minded unit cannot be had in any other activity of man. Perhaps that is why sports is so popular as it emulates it in many ways. But it is NOT the same, not even close.
Disagree. Defeat against an invasion is terrible and equally galling to the soul – and it involves the fate of one’s entire people. Self defense is noble and necessary. If warriors fail in their attempt, at least they can be at peace insofar as they did their duty and gave their best. Of course they still have to watch the crucifixion of their Nation and all the atrocities that involves as per the Old South and Nationalist Germany.
Krishna’s instructions to Arjuna are very clear in this regard. Christ is silent on this – and we are the poorer for it.
Agree about the moral equivalent of war. That nothing can be found that can unite men so deeply shows we are a fallen race. For some, great projects like the Exploration of Space or Saving the Environment can do it. The Left are obviously better at this since they consider themselves in a permanent state of war – and that too is corruption for them and for the nation and takes us back to the basic question again.
Janos, the silence of Christ regarding war and self-defense was very likely caused by the highly selective process of how the Bible was compiled at the Council of Nicea in the late 4th century. Jesus DID tell his disciples to buy swords, even if it meant selling one’s robe. The backstory of that event, of course, is conspicuously absent.
Both Emperor Constantine and the crypto-Jewish scholars in the Council were only interested in converting the pagans. The Bible was NOT compiled to impart secret wisdom and powerful knowledge to the masses. The crypto-Jews ensured that the Bible presented a theme which asserts that God’s entire focus was on the Jews and nobody else. Whether for good or evil, reward or punishment, the Bible claims that God only spoke through the Jews, gave the Law through the Jews, and, by Levitical right, they have authority above all men.
NO OTHER RELIGION ON EARTH recognizes that extraordinary claim. The West only knows a heavily whitewashed Judaism, that chimera Jewdeo-Xtianity, and Islam. All Abrahamic religions are corrupted to varying degrees. The West hasn’t seen Legitimate Christianity, at large, in a century.
The weapon to break free of the Christian-Jewish-Islamic prison is by extensive reading of the Bhagavad Gita, the Upanishads, and the Vedas. Those ancient and uncontaminated holy books make NO MENTION of Jews or recognition of their extraordinary claims. Just the fact that Divine Mind can be accessed without Jewish permission liberates the mind and open it to an education superior to the Bible i.e. Truths about the soul, karma, rebirth, the nature of divine power, and the universe.
God’s knowledge is all over the world. Ancient European mythologies, ancient Egypt, the monks of ancient Scetis, Tibetan Book of the Dead, American Indian beliefs, the Kolbrin, Swedenborg, etc. Spend your life studying them and you’ll find out what Jesus Christ probably said about a lot of things but, never got published.
Yes, it’s extraordinary how little of Christ’s teaching we have. John says at the end of his gospel that all the books in the world couldn’t have held it – so why didn’t he write a bit more about it? Something is really off. No doubt He was a great Being, but the culture just wasn’t advanced enough to hold what he had to give. Even the Muslims did better with Mohammad, a far inferior Being: they recorded a vast amount of what he said and did. They know Mohammad’s views on an extraordinary range of subjects.
In Christianity’s defense: the Jews were just supposed to be the vehicle not the end all and be all. The Church was now the chosen vehicle. To have reversed this as the Church has done in recent years, is utter heresy and capitulation to the dark powers.
“The West hasn’t seen Legitimate Christianity, at large, in a century.”
This is true, as I noted last week, “Dispensationalism has misidentified the players”. And as noted above, the translators have taken liberties with the texts : to bring honor to Esau and his hordes by impersonation.
“The disciples said, Sire, are you bringing us strife or peace, do you prepare us for battle? Are we to rally the people? Jesus said, Do you still not understand, I am a man of peace and I and unsheath only the sword of the spirit. This is not the easy way, for it is less difficult to change things with the sword than with soft words, and those who oppose us understand that better. But let only those who would use weapons with courage talk about soft words and peace, otherwise better man will justifiably scorn them as cowards. Cowards talk about peace and brave men about war, but I tell you that when brave men talk peace and cowards are sent to war there will be no more strife and a new day will dawn.”

Very interesting. I’ve never heard of this before. I certainly want to believe it’s genuine. Is there any strong reason to believe it is? I’ll have to look into this more.
Stanley McChrystal lost his career because he wrongly assumed Michael Hastings wouldn’t report on his and his officers insubordinate attitude to their commander-in-chief. At least there’s one principle, civilian control over the military, that remains intact these days.
What country are you from EH that you think the civilians control the military? The defense contractors own the political puppets who do their bidding and buy their products of death utilizing OUR money. Our military is Corporately controlled. I assume you never served my friend did you, for if you did and met with the true owners of our country you could not make such an erroneous observation. The civilian population simply provides the cannon fodder or more correctly the IED fodder to keep the cash flow going.
You make a fair point; the Pentagon is a notrious brothel. The country I come from is Canada, and no, I haven’t served in the armed forces. Still, for what it’s worth I think most of the corruption originates on the civilian side of the relationship, namely in Congress. There’s hardly a district in the U.S. that doesn’t have a stake in the F-35, to name just one grossly bloated program — even Bernie Sanders voted for it.
Elrond, Michael Hastings, there’s a blast from the recent past. And blast is the correct term. Does anyone actually believe that Hastings’ new Mercedes caught on fire by itself late into the LA night? I notice that any investigation into that curious incident was quietly deep sixed.
Janos–
You too are what this day is all about! So shine up those SS collar pins, slip that swastika armband in place, click those spit-shined jack boot heels and give a weeping “sieg heil” of adoration to your portrait of Adolph Hitler! It too is your right as a ‘murkin (as LBJ would have put it!).
And when the mongrel nation in which you have chosen to live gets to you so much that you cannot stand it anymore, there is always the Svbodas in Ukraine, (perhaps not your kind of Slavic fascist, but Slavic fascist nonetheless!).
There is also the Austrian Freedom Party which may not be your kind of Nazi, but they despise any but “pure Aryans” just about as much as do you and they have managed to compel another election in the mountain kingdom after “election irregularities” were found in the most recent one.
And for the Republic of Skorenzy, may I suggest a fitting Anthem of politically correct praise, from Rogers and Hammerstein’s Sound of music:
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss,Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever.
Hey dude! The descendants of black people who built this land with their slave labor ain’t going back to Africa.
Also, the descendants of Chinese who slaved away building the transcontinental railway are not going back to China.
And the the descendants of Latinos whose countries were wrecked by military death squads that our CIA and our US military installed to replace their lawfully elected governments are not going back south of the border.
Neither are the countless Muslims seeking asylum because their already messed up countries we managed to make worse by the past 25 years of unrelenting warfare generating “the worst refugee crisis since WWII”.
And last but not least neither Janos Skorenzy nor his progeny will be returning to east-central Europe or Russia from whence they originated in spite of everything that makes the US less than perfect.
So ooze out your venom, froth your nonsense, and enjoy doing it because that too is what Independence Day means (see first amendment!) Happy July 4th Janos!.
I give a nuanced meditation on some of the aspects of war and this is your response? As Krishnamurti said of Gandhi, “He was an immensely violent man.” So are you.
Btw, Gandhi fought bravely against the Blacks in South Africa and was a decorated veteran in her Majesty’s forces – of which he was very proud. Your Gandhi is a creation of the creatures who control Hollywood and the publishing industry. So are you.
Janos, your nuanced meditation might draw more sympathy if your favoured examples weren’t “the Old South and Nationalist Germany”. Two causes more worthy of defeat could hardly be named.
If you can’t feel sympathy for them, you are simply incapable of any objectivity and goodness. You’re the kind who get upset about a Black being pushed off a train by football hooligans but yawns when he hears about thousands of British girls being sexually abused and enslaved by Muslims.
Please be specific, Janos. How does what I wrote lead to your accusation of the kind of person I am? Calling someone “the kind who” this or that is a thought-terminating cliché if you can’t actually connect the dots.
The Old South was a slave empire embedded within the greater empire of the U.S.A. When the threat arose that slavery would not be extended into newly-settled territories, the slave empire rose up and was defeated at a tremendous cost of lives. The stamping out of slavery was a pure win for humanity, won at a terrible cost. The slaveowners did have another option: they could have recognized the humanity of the slaves, released them and paid reparations. A nuanced meditation on that option might conclude that it was preferable to mass slaughter in order to preserve slaveowners’ privilege.
As for Nazi Germany, it was a belligerent psycho-state that initiated the war in Europe, culminated in genocide, and ended in the utter ruin and dismemberment of its own land as well as others. I have great sympathy for Germans who endured aerial bombardment, post-war forced repatriations, and many other calamities arising out of Nazi warmongering. That sympathy is greater in the case of civilians and lesser in the case of, say, members of the SS. I have sympathy for their victims, too, of whom there were a very great many indeed.
Slavery was doomed in the long run – which may not have been that long btw. The South had its own abolition movement. Pius the lX (I believe) corresponded unofficially with Jefferson Davis. He believed that the Puritan Culture that had mutated into Yankee Capitalism was the greatest threat to the world. Later events proved how prescient he was.
All the forces of Hell descended on Germany – all because they wanted to be free of the Bankers and Internationalists and be their own people again. Same people are now destroying the rest of the West. You’re one of them.
Your “concerns” are all very stereotyped, hackneyed, and officially approved – like they come from Amnesty International’s website or something. The mass rape of European Women by Muslims isn’t officially recognized yet, so it doesn’t exist for you. You are displaying a full retard level of awareness and self knowledge here.
Official psychology refuses to recognize post-abortion syndrome too, but that doesn’t stop it from causing great pain in the good women who experience it.
Elrond,
The history of which you speak is what I learned in high school. But I eventually saw through that, as you haven’t. History is written by the winners, so “official” history should always be questioned. The War of Northern Aggression was much more about trade and Lincoln’s hubris than it was about slavery. Indeed Lincoln said (when campaigning and first elected) that slavery could continue in the South as long as the nation remained whole. Those 800,000 or so lost lives lie on Lincoln’s head. Per the Constitution, the South had every right to secede.
Janos: “All the forces of Hell descended on Germany – all because they wanted to be free of the Bankers and Internationalists and be their own people again.”
Yeah, that’s what’s known as motive. Under the Nazi party, Germany committed the overt act of invading Poland — the guilty act — in furtherance of its agenda to subjugate, colonize and exploit the east — the guilty mind. America’s wars in Vietnam and Iraq each had their reasons and were no less criminal. Here’s a hint if you ever murder someone: in the interrogation room, when the cops say, “He was gonna come at you, right? You had to defend yourself.” they’re not trying to help you explain how you’re not guilty. They’re to trying to help you explain how you are guilty.
Regarding this supposed epidemic of mass rape of European women by Muslim men, make your case. Another hint: You’ll do much, much better if you can cite primary sources. If I see one anti-Semitic cartoon, you lose.
Ha! You know very well it’s happening. Your morality of selected outrage just chooses not to recognize it. In other words, you have no real morality – it’s just a weapon to be used against enemies.
I know no such thing. Everyone’s entitled to their opinions but no one is entitled to their own facts, so lay out something from the public record that can be evaluated. Whatever else you are, Janos, you’re intelligent enough to at least gesture toward an actual case if you felt like it, so I thought I’d give you a chance.
In 1975, there were around 400 rapes in Sweden. In 2015, there were well over 6000. This story was picked up from an Israeli newspaper. Nothing “Nazi” about it, just the simple truth.

There were plenty of skilled slaves in the old South.

“I have my Flocks and my Herds, my Bond-men and Bond-women, and every soart [sic] of Trade amongst my own Servants,” wrote William Byrd II in 1727, who expressed an ideal of being able to “live in a kind of Independence on everyone but Providence.” [EH: Because his slaves’ work belonged to him, you see.]
… “[T]he Planter has Tradesmen of all kinds in his Gang of Slaves, and ‘tis a Rule with them, never to pay Money for what can be made upon their Estates, not a Lock, a Hing [sic] or a Nail if they can avoid it.” In other words, planters expected enslaved people to perform a wide range of jobs that included carpenter, cooper, boatman, cook, seamstress, and blacksmith, to mention only a few of the skilled functions required around plantations. [EH: Infrastructure!]
Just Google “skilled slave labor” if you want more details. You’re welcome.
Uncle Remus too. He was skilled at doing nuthin.
Now they are called employees, skilled and unskilled.

What vladdie [purposely] fails to realize (poor dear), is that your post is a warmhearted and entertaining “portrait”, not a “response”.

Having no sense of humor is a tell-tale sign of psychological dysfunction. Also, the line between irony and hypocrisy can be a thin one not easily discerned by the fanatic.
The greater threat to the US has not been Jewish bankers but the UK. Its interference (as in the civil war provocations of the South) and entangled alliances (WWI and WWII) have gone a long way to strip the US of its treasure and its youth.
Adolph Hitler’s “financial genius” was aided to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars from the likes of the Rockefeller and Morgan (neither of whom were Jewish) banking houses and technological counsel and planning from companies like Ford, GM, Standard Oil and IBM. This at a time when the US was struggling in the throes of the great depression of the 1930’s.
The technological advances that were counseled and overseen by Ford, GM, IBM, and Standard Oil and other US corporations were what brought Germany from the horse and buggy era to the mass production and technologically advanced state it became in the 1930’s.
Some of these US industrialists did so out of a hatred of Jews and communists, but most were drooling at the prospect of making money by selling to both sides of a major world conflagration that they knew was coming.

If you get the book you will note that the author has extensive footnotes documenting his charges against US corporations. What has changed in the past 70 years? Not much.
Poet,
Thanks for the link; I do enjoy those Book TV selections.
…Seems we’re implying that when there’s money and power to be made and seized, lots of bad and evil-smelling shit comes to the fore. Who’da thunk it??
It then follows what I’ve said here before. The surest deterrent to WW3, or imperial proxy war against Russia, is if Putin can GUARANTEE the prompt extermination of ZOG-NATO’s billionaires AND in a short time window.
In other words, inflict the kind of TERROR upon our Top 1% that overpowers their psychoses and compels them to call off their schemes for war. If the billionaires, whether individually or collectively, KNOW that Ultimate Justice will find them speedily, they WILL DO or PAY what it takes to save their own hides.
MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) is no longer a deterrent because the Top 1% feel certain they can ride out the mass genocide in special shelters. They are perfectly willing to wipe out a billion or two if the long term goal of a ZOG World can arise from the ashes. Therefore, by their actions, they have confessed their guilt and approved their execution.
This should be the bumper sticker slogan for the anti-war crowd and humanity in general: “KILL THE BILLIONAIRES OR BILLIONS WILL BE KILLED.” It’s just that simple.
Hitlers speeches.
What did he say? In 1000 words or less.
Complete translations are not readily available and I don’t speak German. I have been able to read bits and pieces of translated transcripts.
Essentially, Hitler called out the very same mafias that plague We Teh Serfs, right here and NOW in ZOG Amerika! He lambasted the moneychangers in London and castigated the Jewish merchants and Jewish playwrights who corrupted the moral fiber of German society with homosexual and interracial plays during the Weimar Republic.
Hitler also called for building the Autobahn and making cars affordable for all Germans so they could travel and enjoy vacations. YES, he said that and made it happen. A LOT of things he called for would resonate with the angry Silent White Majority in ZOG Amerika today BECAUSE we are now experiencing the same ubiquitous and stinking rot that caused desperate Germans to embrace Hitler.
Hitler did NOT want war but, was forced to take preemptive measures because the Jews in London were calling in all their favors to draw Washington into war. Thus helping them put Germany back on to the Rothschild’s assets and balance sheets.
I actually read three academic papers on the Council of Nicea so I could to reply to your earlier post (which is factually incorrect), but I couldn’t find a reply button. Then I see this one about the “Zionist Occupied Government,” proving to me that you aren’t interested in facts anyway. You’re just a nutcase.
“Was the Priest wrong to have commanded him to stop what he was doing?”
I would suggest that a Chaplain, of whatever rank, has no line authority in a combat unit.
Vlad, General Puller might have been reacting to the way the Chinese and NKoreans treated American POWs in that war, the most brutal the US was ever engaged in.
A war of extermination, no quarter asked, none given.
It will be interesting to see what the next Korean War will look like, and how US Armed Forces, with their transvestite, woman and homosexual soldiers and Marines will match up with the 6 million strong NKorean Army, including the 88,000 troops in the highly trained, highly motivated Special Forces. Rest assured these wolves are not concerned with ‘transgender rights’, the glass ceiling, special latrines in well appointed barracks, or the gay agenda. From what I’ve read they are trained killers, nothing else.

“I’m more angry at Hillary for voting for the Iraq War” — Bro Jobe
Technically Hillary voted to authorize funds for war. The Congress must declare war.
George W. Bush illegally and unconstitutionally ordered troops to fight without a formal congressional declaration of war. The executive acted illegally, not Hillary.
The executive acted illegally, not Hillary. – wpa
============
Slowly but surely wpa’s support shifts to Hillary as we all knew it would.
Technically what wpa said is correct. By that standard all wars since WWII have been illegal – which they were.
Authorizing funds is every bit as guilty as the political ritual to permit the crime to go forward. The funds are like fuel in the tank of a bomber. They go together and perform the same act of imperial destruction.
Lord Bush and Viceroy Cheney did what precedence has allowed for since the Korean War. Hillary is every bit as guilty as the Nazi Germany officers in the dock during the Nuremburg Trials.
“The funds are like fuel in the tank of a bomber. They go together and perform the same act of imperial destruction.”
If I put fuel in the tank, no one dies.
If you get into the bomber, fly it over people, and release bombs to kill people, then we are not equally guilty. It is not “the same act”.
You are really straining wpa. One does not load a gun, or fuel a bomber, or fund a war for nothing.
Hillary Rodan a.k.a. Kali-Ma Klinton, is a neocon warmonger and whore for Wall Street. Period.
That is correct, but I will never support any politician who voted in any way, shape or form to make that war possible and Hillary was head cheerleader for the war from corporate party blue.
A short blurb from The Blaze:
Sen. Cory Booker No Longer Denies Being Vetted as Potential Clinton VP
WASHINGTON (AP) — New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker is no longer flatly denying that he’s being vetted as a potential running mate for presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. Booker has said in recent weeks that it was flattering to be mentioned but that he wasn’t being vetted. …
What would possess a politician to tell a lie like this, first thing outta the box?
It has been roughly 8 hours since the news ‘Nigel Farage to quit as UKIP leader in wake of Brexit vote’ in a manner similar to Boris Johnson. I am surprised no one here has even mentioned this.
What’s there to say? The table has been kicked over in exactly the way Farage always wanted. He’s not Boris Johnson — he saw Brexit as his goal, not his stepping stone to the prime ministership — so what better note for him to exit on?
Maybe we did not want to rub it in, Q, but since you brought it up…
Both major Caucasian figures (Boris and Nigel) are lying cowards. The Brexit “referendum” is not even legally binding. It is a non-event.
The U.K. should chose a Muslim P.M. (like London had the good sense to do) … at least Muslims have a good Protestant work ethic and don’t surrender at the slightest challenge like Boris and Nigel did. Muslims have both the intelligence needed for executive leadership and the balls and stamina to follow through. Britain needs more Muslims.
wpa_ccc: ‘The Brexit “referendum” is not even legally binding. It is a non-event.’
You ought to know better than that. Yes, Parliament is sovereign, and therefore no, the referendum is not binding, but get real. If they wanted to, the powers that be in Britain couldn’t invent a more expeditious way to immolate whatever remains of their credibility than trying to either ignore the referendum or undo it with a second one. And the rest of the EU is making it very clear they have no interest in opening up yet more concessions as a way of appeasing Leave voters. Barring some unforeseen turn of events, Brexit is happening.
More than credibility, the actual country is at stake. The UK was already in serious danger of breaking up before this happened. Even after Westminster agreed to devolve power and let Scotland have its own Parliament, Scotland still nearly left and that was before their expressed will to remain in the EU was overruled by non-London English. As a Canadian, I can well sympathize with the UK’s predicament, since my own country was nearly chopped in two a couple of decades back when Québec held its own referendum. We may be about to see three centuries of history coming to an end.
Thank you EH for your intelligent exchange above. It is always a pleasure to banter back and forth with a fellow earthling in a thought provoking manner. One of the true joys of cyberspace!
“…trying to either ignore the referendum…”
There is need to try… there are rules (like 65% approval and 75% voter participation) and the referendum did not meet the minimum requirements for legitimacy. It is not a mandate for Brexit… to the contrary it can be safely ignored.
If it were true that the referendum can be safely ignored, then we would see that happening and several well-known careers would still be on rails. Also, your willingness to blithely disregard the democratically expressed will of the people if it doesn’t suit you speaks volumes.
I am only telling you what is actually happening in real time. As we write the referendum is being ignored.
Not ignoring means no immediate invocation of Article 50, which is legally required to start a two-year long process to end participation in the EU.
Instead we are seeing that article 50 is not being invoked. We are seeing ignoring the referendum, which in any event is non-binding both legally and politically or any other way you what to look at it. Just face reality … instead of fantasizing that something is happening which is clearly not happening. Brexit was a non-event.
Not ignoring means an immediate invocation of Article 50 … Which has not happened. The referendum is being ignored.
Riddle me this: do a majority of the people’s representatives favor leaving or remaining? Hint: remaining.
Today the formidable law firm Mischon de Reya has issued a legal challenge to the U.K. government on behalf of a group of clients saying that invoking Article 50 (which is necessary to trigger a maximum two-year process of exit) without the approval of Parliament is unlawful.
“The Referendum held on 23 June was an exercise to obtain the views of U.K. citizens, the majority of whom expressed a desire to leave the EU. But the decision to trigger Article 50 of the Treaty of European Union, the legal process for withdrawal from the EU, rests with the representatives of the people under the U.K .Constitution” said a statement from Mishcon de

The Brexit vote was a non-event, signifying nothing because it met neither political nor legal requirements.
Can you admit it is not a democracy?
Really? A law firm expressed a legal opinion? And they’re formidable, you say? Well then, by all means that settles it. I’m sure actual judges across Britain are lined up to vie for the historic opportunity to rubber-stamp it.
Although there are contrary opinions I’ve heard of:
http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2016/06/does-invoking-article-50-require-the-approval-of-parliament.html
9. Parliament has no formal say over whether or when Article 50 is invoked, as this lies within the royal prerogative powers that are exercised by government…
10. Parliament will, however, be able to vote on the withdrawal deal, as that will be a treaty.
The fact is, the UK and Europe are in uncharted waters. It’s the most serious crisis to hit the western world since the financial kerplooie. Seriously, neither you nor I are an expert in UK constitutional law, and even if we were, the present situation is absolutely textbook constitutional crisis material and everybody damn knows it — except you, apparently. The way you minimize it and insist on your preferred framing is just, frankly, weird. It looks and smells like pure denial.
Better for White Britain to arouse its comatose racial spirit and forcibly expel all Muslims, Jews, 3rd Worlders, and quislings among them. For every vacancy in housing or work, White Britain should encourage quality White Americans to “come home.”
White Britain has THE INALIENABLE RIGHT to not only survive but, THE RIGHT to order its native lands and its customs in such ways as to foster prosperity for the White British who belong there. White Britain requires MUCH stronger medicine than Rudyard Kipling’s, “THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON.” Britain needs to be saturated with Enoch Powell’s commentaries in the media and Parliament.
I know I know….. all fantasy since BBC is controlled by Jewish Supremacist, Danny Cohen. Also included in the pollution of the BBC are militant feminists, homosexuals, and globalists.
Don’t forget GLOBAL WARMING, which is the BBCs religion.
brh
Stephen Molyneaux, in his incessant YouTube videos, has been saying basically the same thing (although he pretty much leaves the Jews out). Today’s generation HAS NO RIGHT to give away their country’s heritage.
As a brown person all I can say is that the white race is committing racial suicide. Culture was developed as a way to protect a given set of people. Culture allows for those who are in the culture to know immediately those outside the culture. The reason for this is because different races have different agendas.
As a brown person I would never ever commit this kind of racial suicide but for some reason the white race has decided that it deserves to be bred out of existence. The time will come when one of those brown Muslim will not thank you for letting them in but will kill you sllit your throat like a goat being sacrificed during the Eid holy day for being stupid enough to let them in.
A “brown person”? How cool! When my brown friends used to come over to visit my daughters used to call them the “brown guys”! I have always argued that blacks are really brown and that whites are really beige and after all, are these not simply different shades of the same color? Yeah, but I am the asshole, right? In any case look up the You Tube of a young Cassius Clay being interviewed by an English idiot about interracial marriage and see why I always loved that man, God rest his soul.
Yes, the white race has been duped (or sold out) into breeding itself our of existence and if you are really objective about it, we deserve it, for in the end, besides pandering to our own exorbitant lifestyles, what exactly have we done for the planet in the last 60+ years anyway? I never was convinced that Charles Darwin ever said anything about man developing from monkeys, but I am damned certain that he wrote extensively about survival of the fittest. He was right on there, no?
“There is no hope for Ephraim, for he hath loved strangers.”
When my brother first saw Blacks, he cried out to our father, “Look at the monkeys.”
Thank you, brown. What are you ‘xactly? Injun? Mex? Mulatto? In Raspail’s classic “Camp of the Saints”, a few loyal non-Whites fought with the Whites against the Hindoo hordes. And smart Injuns stand guard with the Minutemen. Why? Cuz their lands and treaties are with us, not Mexico.
“When my brother first saw Blacks, he cried out to our father, “Look at the monkeys.”
That was at his high school graduation I suppose? Were there still more dull tools in your family drawer?
“he especially doesn’t want to be on display in that fishbowl where folks pretty much can see what you’re up to 24/7. For one thing, “The Energizer” can’t discreetly come and go.”
I hear that! Your theory is plausible but Bill’s efforts at getting a quickie off of Loretta before her plane took off may not have been a good move.
Now a talented low level factotum with a passion to make the desired outcome of the indictment efforts happen can be identified. Brought front and center the chosen zealot will have an all consuming hatred for Hillary, or he/she will have and all encompassing love for neo-liberal globalization and the privilege of elites.
It all depends on the selection process, as it did in O.J.’s jury selection so long ago. This is how rich men get things done. Not any crazy will do, hiring the right kind of crazy matters.
Doing nothing might have been Bill’s better move unless something was whispered in his ear. We will never know if this were so.
Bill may have not been using the head on his shoulders to do his thinking. But thinking with something he was doing and he may have been thinking he could just turn on some magic man and it would all be good.
Okay, this news analysis from America.aljazeera.com about Hillary wanting to impose a “no-fly” zone over Syria and thus invite Russia to World War 3 really underlines that there is no “lesser evil” in Presidential Election 2016.
Also, if The Donald really wants to win the keys to the Oval Office, why does he have neither the funding nor the organizational structure in place to wage so much as a halfway decent presidential campaign, and why does he keep saying things such as what he said in the wake of the Orlando mass-shooting that only antagonizes likely voters? Some polls have Madame Hillary leading him by twelve points. It makes one wonder what might really be going on.
What to make of the little meeting between Bill and Loretta? I wonder what they discussed. Makes no difference what was said, the real import is that it happened at all, the real message is that neither of them have the slightest worry about it, that neither of them give a shit about appearances.
Was Hillary using her high office to conduct personal bizness? What difference does it make? There won’t be any legal consequence. Will the FBI investigation of her emails come to anything? IMO, no chance, no chance of any investigation or prosecution not getting quashed. Remember, this is the Holderian Age of Too Big to Jail.
Let’s ignore for the moment the millions paid by Oligarchs supposedly for Bill’s and Hill’s wit and wisdom. Even that stupendous amount pales. This isn’t only about giving money to a politician, no matter the cause, charitable or not. Mind you, these are cosmic sized numbers, way beyond cash-stuffed envelopes from greasy businessmen.
Amazing this is, the difficult optics of these seeming quid pro quos requires not just moxy but King Kong sized balls because you can’t hide this stuff and the likelihood of having to brazen out some awkward questions is around 100 per cent. So how do you square this monumental gall with the abject boneheadedness of not following government procedures for electronic communication? This would have been easy. I guess gall and idiocy aren’t opposites, you can have surpluses of both.
I differ with Kunstler, even if friendly media are trying to position the issue as one of mere security protocols, electronic security is no frivolity and this alone should have been enough to destroy her candidacy. Maybe, if the FBI asks nicely, Putin or the Chinese will be good enough to hand over all those missing thousands of personal email messages.
To anyone with a stitch of sense this email fubar should have disqualified the entrant a long time ago. Amazing that it didn’t.
On the contrary, Volodya, in the real world State Dept. servers have been hacked, and data has been stolen.
Hillary’s personal server was safer. She was protecting sensitive information. She should be promoted to the Presidency for her foresighted actions.
Um, what? The idea that a privately-operated server in someone’s basement is likely to be more secure than one operated by security professionals, or able to withstand attackers equipped with the resources of a nation-state, is just laughably stupid. If Wikipedia is to be believed, they weren’t even encrypting the server’s traffic for the first two months, much less giving it the kind of hardening and vetting any remotely serious security application requires. Even after they moved the actual physical server into a data center, it was placed inside a closet next to the bathroom. I wouldn’t be surprised if the servers hosting this very blog had better physical security than that. Your comment is ludicrous.
And what evidence do ou have to support your assertion?
WASHINGTON — A former aide to Hillary Clinton has turned over to the F.B.I. computer security logs from Mrs. Clinton’s private server, records that showed no evidence of foreign hacking, according to people close to a federal investigation into Mrs. Clinton’s emails.
The security logs bolster Mrs. Clinton’s assertion that her use of a personal email account to conduct State Department business while she was the secretary of state did not put American secrets into the hands of hackers or foreign governments.
Wpa’s support for Hillary grows stronger. How long before Bernie is a piece of shit?
A lack of evidence of foreign hacking? I call that a relief, but evidence that isn’t there isn’t proof. Regarding my assertion, I initially relied anecdotally on the exchange transcribed here:
https://www.grc.com/sn/sn-522.htm
Just search for the name “Clinton” on the page. It’s a transcript of the Security Now! podcast where the host, Steve Gibson, seems to be referring to this story:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3201367/Hillary-s-email-firm-run-loft-apartment-servers-BATHROOM-raising-new-questions-security-sensitive-messages-held.html
According to the New York Times, the private e-mail server was initially housed in the basement of Clinton’s home beginning in January 2009. It was later moved (in mid-2013, according to the Daily Mail story) to a site located in Denver, Colorado and hosted by Platte River Networks, a company with ties to the Democratic Party. Their business was run out of a private apartment unit, which is where the closet next to the bathroom was turned into a server room.
So: basement or bathroom, take your pick. Any server needs to be secured, as Jim’s experience with DDOS attacks a couple of weeks ago demonstrates. And I think you’ll agree that Jim’s blog is several orders of magnitude less significant, and less likely to be targeted for penetration, than an e-mail server being used by the Secretary of bloody State. (No offense, Jim!) You don’t take chances with a thing like that — not, that is, if your priority is security. If you have other priorities, you might act differently.
I don’t know what kind of setup they had to prevent electronic penetration of the server, although the idea that they were sending and receiving e-mail in the clear for two months doesn’t inspire confidence. But that aside, ordinary physical security is non-optional. If you don’t have physical security for the server, then you don’t have security, period. All the fancy electronic stuff doesn’t even enter into it if the physical unit is as easy to get to as a high-schooler’s locker.
Only wpa would celebrate Kali-Ma Clinton in the White House.

EH,
Your posts on the security of Hillary’s server are outstanding!
Excellent arguments.
One of my duties as a young U.S. Army Lieutenant was classified document custodian for my organization. I would have “gone to jail” for one percent of the number &/or magnitude of her security violations. It’s a disgrace that it’s even still being discussed or that she’s being allowed to run for office at any level.

It would be good for the nation of Hilary Clinton is indicted for her mischievous ways with email when she was the Secretary of State. Indictment would may result in some unanticipated consequences which could jolt the nation’s framework.
1. She likely would not be nominated for POTUS.
2. Bernie Sanders, or perhaps some other leader with less socialistic tendencies, may be nominated.
3. It may destroy the Democratic Party, which would be very good.
4. It could cause the Republican Party to pause and think about the framework and hopefully re-read, or read, the fundamental documents that led up to the Declaration of Independence and the codification of the Constitution.
5. Citizens may finally realize that the present two-party system is a sham – analogous to the unstable two-legged stool – and the need for a third party of equal weight and power to the present two would be a major force in establishing competent leadership that is not overtly corrupt.
6. Given the likelihood of economic collapse followed by a major depression, by way of a stretch, it may prevent, or minimize, the nasty realities that could occur in a nation with citizens ‘armed to the teeth’.
The next four years may prove insecure, anxiety-ridden, with great uncertainty. Hopefully the citizens-patriots of the U.S.A. will prove up to the long shlog of figuring out how to restructure the nations way of life and business to a form that is sustainable at lower levels of want and consumption.
All Americans are equal in the eyes of the law! Some Americans are more equal than others. I guess the SCOTUS has to redefine the term “separate but equal”.
Our Republic is truly dead if the law does not apply the same to everyone or offer equal protection to everyone.
The fatal flaw of Equality Über Alles is that Evil is free to do what Good will not do by its nature. Equality by decree creates an uneven playing field because unequal natures are not accounted for! Some things do not deserve equal treatment because they are incompatible or even hostile to the design and harmony of the body-politic.
Where man-made Positive Laws lose their way and fail, then a reset must be done on the organic metrics of Natural Law i.e. race, blood, the gods, and the Law of Nations, which provide borders defining a space where the customs and manufactures are protected.
Among many compounding errors over the recent decades, it means reversal of miscegenation and by Force Majeur if the Gordian Knot cannot be unraveled by Due Process.
You and Janos both like this image of slicing through the Gordian Knot to undo social and demographic change you don’t like, and to restore white supremacy through force and fear. What’s more, you’re admirably clear that the Gordian Knot doesn’t refer simply to current political circumstances but to due process and the rule of law themselves. If you all get your way in the end, we can’t say we didn’t have any warning.
Not White Supremacy. That is a classic Straw Man to deflect from the real issue at hand.
Janos and I promote White Self-Preservation and resistance to what has been thrust upon Whites for over 50 years! When the Rule of Law becomes toxic and counterproductive, it is no longer legitimate. Positive Law tends to degrade into tyranny. A reset to Natural Law is necessary until Positive Law can be harnessed to separate peoples and restore harmony.

Ok, I have a better dialog between Lynch and Clinton on the plane:
Lynch: What the fuck is this? A check? You’re going to pay me off with a check from your fucking foundation to get your wife off the hook! Do you think I just came into town on the top of a turnip truck?
Clinton: the check’s good. I mean after all we’ve collected multi-millions in bribes from Wall Street. Giving you a million is just pocket change for us.
Lynch: I want cash you fucking bozo. Do you think I ‘m one of your BJ bimbos. Get off the fucking plane and come back with CASH!

A farewell speech of Nigel Farage, one of the Brexit leaders, to the European Commission in which he openly says that it is the European Union that provoked a war in Ukraine, and now, accusing Russia of unwillingness to accept this coup and submit, trying to provoke a major war in Europe, and thus EU acts in the interests of the Party of War and Hillary Clinton.
Moreover, he points out it is the behavior of the European Commission, in secret attempts to turn the EU into a political union, into the super-state, as the main reason for Brexit.

On Tuesday (tomorrow) President Obama is scheduled to fly on the presidential plane to North Carolina, and now imagine: opening the door of Air Force One, and out of there, together with the president comes the Queen of the Flying Monkeys!!!

ANDREA MITCHELL:
I was told that there was a possible plan for her to fly in on Tuesday with this first Obama meeting to North Carolina on Air Force One, the full embrace, the picture.
Now of course you can guess whether Obama will go for such performance, but it is much more interesting as how she forced him to go for it, and was it the last straw that forced Obama to give the green light for the completion of the FBI investigation.
Positive Anti-War News
Yesterday we all suddenly became aware of the joint military actions of Russia and Turkey against al-Nusra, which Lavrov has recently suspected of preparing to overthrow Assad with the help of Americans, and that American bombers will participate in these joint Russian-Turkish military operations against al-Nusra.
Immediately that coincided with the emergence of rumors about the capture by the Syrian army of the Malach farm, which would cut the supply routes of Al-Nusra to Aleppo.
Moreover yesterday in the American press appeared plenty of articles regarding that the United States in its uncontrolled attempts to “contain” Russia and Putin is actually provoking a war, possibly nuclear.
http://www.upi.com/Top_News/Opinion/2016/07/04/Harlan-Ullman-Is-the-US-planning-for-a-war-with-Russia/8161467391620/
And if to apply the reverse logic to these events, it is natural to assume that the reason for the improvement of relations between Russia and the US are major defeats suffered by election campaign of Hillary Clinton.
And what really catches the eye is the examination by the FBI agents of the former secretary of state, which happened two days after meeting between US Attorney General Loretta Lynch with Bill Clinton, which in theory should disqualify her as an official, that suppose to make the conclusions of this investigation and decide on the presentation of charges to a candidate for US president, who nominated herself on behalf of the Democratic party.
And to answer the allegations of conflict of interest in connection with this meeting, US Attorney General said that she would accept the recommendations of top FBI investigators.
The kindergarten of some sort, unless of course it is an attempt to absolve herself of responsibility for the inevitable withdrawal from the election of Hillary in the case that before the questioning of Hillary FBI briefed US Attorney General to the preliminary findings of the investigation, which is now, after questioning the main person involved can be considered as completed.
I say to hell with Hillary, to hell with Bill and Obama and all the rest!
Today I’m a “Yankee Doodle Dandy”, believing in that grand old flag and sending my regards to Broadway!
Can you picture Obama singing “I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy” or “It’s a Grand Old Flag”? It just doesn’t work! He has no “American” spirit!
Maybe he could do something like “I’m a Muslim loving Meatball”!

Some people sing songs. Others provide 29 million citizens with access to health care and prevent another 9/11 from happening on American soil.

Was I wrong? Hillary is a neo-liberal American exceptionalist war hawk. Do you disagree?
The Current 2016 enrollment numbers: The current enrollment numbers (as on February 2016) are roughly: 12.7 million in the marketplace, and very roughly 20 million total between the ACA between the Marketplace, Medicaid expansion, young adults staying on their parents plan, and other coverage provisions. The uninsured rate remains at an all time low with 9.1% of under 65 uninsured as of 4th quarter 2015 according to CDC.Gov data.
It’s true there are more people insured but they are forced into it by law including fines and coercion. The deductibles on the policies are so high as to be useless to working class people. The only people benefitting from higher insurance enrollment are the corporate hospital oligarchs, pharmaceutical industries, etc.
Judging by inflated out of nothing accusations of Trump in Antisemitism by Clinton-controlled media, things not so hot in the land of the Flying Monkeys – they’re getting desperate.
After Hillary Clinton and her Party of War somehow managed to post on her website the video-endorsement by Obama (made when?), this led to an immediate deterioration of the international situation.
Staff at the State Department immediately began to complain about insufficient quality and quantity of the wars being waged by the United States, demanded(!!) from the president to create a no-fly zone in Syria and US fighter jets really began to fly around the Russian bombers, NATO tanks in large quantities started coming to Romania and the Baltic states, and the press was filled the description of all kinds of miracle weapons, in particular the railgun by “BAE Systems” – main sponsor of PBS – when that very good channel (in the past) in the spring of 2014 suddenly decided to take on the most rabid propaganda of rampant Clintonializm.
Putin will be told what to do or suffer the wrath of Hillary. Putin will fall in line.

Hindu or ?
Straight off the movie transcript for Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Either Sanskrit or Hindu, albeit in English alphabet.
Any Indians here who will translate??? As you translate, imagine Hillary as Kali Ma, wearing a garland of human skulls taken from all the dead bodies that paved the way for the Clinton Crime Syndicate…, all the way back to the Rose Law Firm in Arkansas.
Finca, if this is the case, then Putin can no longer act out the easy part of the popular phrase, “Speak softly and carry a big stick.” Putin will have to swing that stick and do it first to show that Russia and Syria will determine who has access to Syrian airspace.
Remember what Turkey did when Turkish F-16’s pulled a bitch move and ambushed that Su-24 on non-alert recon? They didn’t try to cautiously approach and make the least provocative display necessary to drive the Russian bomber away from Turkish airspace. Turkey ACTED and STRUCK FIRST. Israel does the same thing. It’s time Russia did as well. The world needs a counter-balance to Washington.
Putin will have to send a message to Obama and state in plain English that Assad invited Russian air power to protect his regime and that Russia will STRIKE FIRST at any intrusion by U.S. jets to disrupt Russian operations. Be sure to cite IDF Air Force action as precedence. And make it happen. That means large scale operations and an overt display of war readiness. If the U.S. jets are seen coming in fast, then the MiG-31’s should scramble, form up, and light off their fire control radars. That alone should make U.S. fighters break off. If not, attack with support from the S-400. Just as important to establish Russian resolve is to break the feeling of invincibility that Washington has enjoyed for the past 25 years.
If Washington is determined to provoke war in Syria, then it will happen and it would be better if Russia’s opening gambit demonstrated domination and resolve. It would also be nice if Putin could arrange the expeditious extermination of a dozen billionaires to let TPTB know that Putin will come after them FIRST if they don’t call off the war.
Jim, you sound off just like a bunch of Russian hurray patriots. Thanks, but no thanks. Somebody must act as a grown-up, responsibly.
It is easy to destroy, it is hard to build.
It was well after midnight when I typed that. Stupid f-ing kids were STILL lighting off fireworks and I had to call the cops twice to get them to come and make them knock it off. I was pretty wound up and saw your comment regarding theoretical conflict between Putin and Hillary.
I’ve always been disturbed at the lack of decisive action that demands Washington to respect Russia’s interests in that part of the world. Stupid fireworks that went on after 10PM only goaded me to get on Putin to stop being so respectful of an entity that is consumed with criminal energy.
I agree. The personal is huge. The World’s Elite never face negative consequences. That must end.
Let them give their children into each other’s keeping. That’s how it was done in the old days. The hostage system would help protect the world. Let the children of Jewish billionaires go to school in Moscow and Leningrad and Russian children in New York and Chicago.
Forget about the damn emails… We must stop ISIS from killing Muslims.
Islamic State has carried out a series of bombing and shooting attacks in Saudi Arabia since mid-2014 that have killed scores of people, mostly members of the Shi’ite Muslim minority and security services.
Police and groups of local volunteers increased security near mosques in Qatif after suicide bombings hit mosques in Shi’ite areas last year, killing dozens. Another suicide blast at a mosque used by security forces killed 15 a year ago.
The top Saudi clerical body condemned the attacks.
“They are renegades from the (true) religion who have left behind the Muslim flock and their imam, violating all sanctities,” the Secretariat of the Council of Senior Scholars said in a statement.
“They have no religion,” it added.
“We must stop ISIS from killing Muslims.”
Why must “we”?
Because if America were a human being, it would be a terminal narcissist, and to a narcissist, everything is about them.
What’s more, it would be a narcissist whose most loyal friends were increasingly concerned about its erratic behaviour… at least, those friends who can’t quite understand why they themselves just told their spouse they want a surprise divorce.
Oh God, people,….get over it. The cake is already in the oven and somebody turned the temperature up too high; if any portion of humanity is to survive it will be coincidence of that small number having the cultural advantage of a Western Enlightenment grasp of reality and all the technological and social organizational advantages that it has birthed. Humanity otherwise will necessarily die off, in process of which they will have caused one of the greatest die-offs of other species, leaving no longer habitable for hundreds of years much of the earth’s surface. That’s it, game over. Forget all the prosaic preaching about population redistribution. All the meme’s of the Left about reverse engineering history to correct “injustices” is distracting from the critical reality. Here, where yet we might have a survivable ration of population to resources, we’d better kick aside all the fuzzy feel-good fantasies of being able to absorb the desperate from already overpopulated areas, but especially not people bearing beliefs that can’t align with 21st Century science based objectivity.
This Loretta Lynch story about meeting Bill Clinton doesn’t make any sense. What lawyer and prosecutor would meet with the husband just before the wife subject of a criminal investigation is about to be deposed? And surely Lynch’s staff of lawyers would have warned her. The story smells Fishy. There are many fishy stories these days, such as the Pulse Orlando shooting.
A2/AD
Secretary of Defense Carter said that the United States will play a major role in the formation of a new organization of the Armed Forces of NATO – Very High Readiness Joint Task Force, the size of which will be 40,000 bayonets. Included in the structure of military units should be deployed anywhere in the Euro-Atlantic theater of military operations within 48 hours.
However, most military analysts doubt that the Americans will be able to implement their plans into practice. Most Western experts are very concerned about frightening ability of Russia to quickly create high-performance restricted access zones.
In the West they are called zones of A2/AD (Anti-Access / Area-Denial). American generals complained publicly that “insidious” Moscow inflates over its troop groupings impermeable protective “bubble” with a diameter of hundreds of miles. And it does it, where it wants it, without asking anyone, using unique technologies to block entry into the protected area of any weapon bearers – air, land, surface and underwater.
40,000 bayonets
Finc,
Our bayonets, I would opine, are longer than the Russian issue, and, due to cultural differences, sharper….
We must stop ISIS from killing Muslims.
To do that we mustconfront the new Axis of Evil – Berlin – NSDAP/Bormann trillions of dollars looted from Europe during the 15 years of Third Reich, Riyadh – trillions of petro-dollars and Clinton Cash – trillions of dollars looted from US economy during the Informational Super-Highway/DotCom swindle.
Deutsche Bank follows the path of Lehman Brothers
The last trading day turned to Deutsche Bank shares in the new historical minimum. Experts are finding more similarities with the collapse of Lehman Brothers story.
The resemblance is truly remarkable. If we impose the dynamics of stock charts, doubt not even arise:
http://b1.vestifinance.ru/c/223400.640xp.jpg
For example, when the Korean Development Bank has tried to buy the failing Lehman Brothers, the bank’s shares soared 16%. The head of Lehman, Mr. Fuld has rejected the proposal, because he wanted to sell at a higher price. This is where the shares fell down with a bang.
It is possible that rumors can appear in the media any day now that someone wants to invest into Deutsche Bank.
Until that happens, observers continue to monitor the dynamics of the shares of the largest German bank, which the IMF has acknowledged the major threat to the global financial system. By the way, the US Federal Reserve has not passed the stress tests for the US division of the Deutsche Bank, and the experts say that the US regulator checked not all operations of the bank.
Soros earned on the short sale of shares in Deutsche Bank
George Soros “Fund Management” has taken a short position in Deutsche Bank AG on 7 million shares of the bank against the outcome of the referendum on Brexit. After that, the bank’s shares began to lose in price.
Never let the good crisis go to waste!
Interesting. I guess since the markets are dealing in euros, not deutsche marks, he couldn’t do what he did with the pound.
Saudi Arabia is lighting up, feeling the heat, but no long term desert acclimation can prepare them for the fire to come.
After five years, Juno has arrived at Jupiter, another example of the positive things man can accomplish. Without question, I’ll take the spirituality of science over religion anytime. Oh, I understand the need for religion. As someone once said, you look into the abyss. But then the abyss looks back, and the search for mental and spiritual comfort begins. And so does the mumbo jumbo, the gibberish, the insanity. The killing.
Let’s see how Saudi Arabia goes. Yes, religion may just topple the pillars of science and the pillars of civilization along with it, on a scale unprecedented in the history of mankind. Astounding in its power, frightening in its irrationality.
The “mental and spiritual comfort” is an innate mechanism in the human psyche evolved by evolution. Being an animal that digest sensory input into concepts that make-up the mosaic of whatever “abstract” we “visualize” to be reality, notions of the supernatural (mystical) had to be also conceptualized to cope with the purely empirical evidence of implacably indifferent nature. The human psyche cannot tolerate inability to “conceptualize” a manageable future (linear time being another “concept”), so manufactures super-natural forces that can be cajoled to intervene against those implacable forces. Without that coping strategy humanity wouldn’t have survived because its enormous gas hog neo cortex would burn too many calories suffering anxiety — mental stress which accelerates metabolic burn of calories. The problem in this post Western Enlightenment age is that the secular idealism of the Liberal Left has become a mysticism no less than that of “faith” based beliefs — a psychological “Band-Aid” against empirical evidence of population overshoot. Good luck with that.
Yes. Nice link, secular idealism and “faith” based beliefs.

I have sense enough to accept reality in Kali Yuga.
Does your reality includes a reserved place in a fallout shelter?
With the rise of the divine feminine, and the defeat of patriarchy, the only ones needing a fallout shelter will be men who retreat to their man caves.
Anthropologically, when threat is recognized woman reflexively collect the children and seek a defensive defensible position while males mobilize a defensive barrier — its our natural gender dispositions. What you are arguing for is an emasculated society — “end of patriarchy” is your miss chosen phrase. Exercise a little scholarship on evolutionary zoology and anthropology then maybe you’ll come to recognize how moronic is your narcissistic PC wining.
There is no defeat of patriarchy. The roles are changing a bit, but evolution is a constant and in a broad sense sets the outer limits of gender roles. That is inescapable. That said, we must become a more egalitarian society or we will perish. That too is inescapable.

“The silence of Christ regarding war” !!!!
There is no silence! Read the new testament. Compare the number of times Christ promotes war, killing, and self defense (zero! even including sword references) with the times Christ advocates love (the greatest commandment) and forgiveness. No contest, Pharisees of CFN.
Jesus still loves you, wpa. Even if nobody else does.
wpa-ccc,
Stop taking that Fentanyl please !
Matthew 10:34King James Version (KJV)
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Revelation 19:15King James Version (KJV)
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
Revelation 19:21King James Version (KJV)
21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
As with most other subjects wpa-ccc , you have know idea what you are talking about and mirror but a very strict “liberal” and “Democrat” ideology that confounds and confuses even the most simple and clear cut issues. Did you know that Satan the Devil is the father of confusion and the author of lies?
On a happier note – have any special plans for Eid al Fitr?
The first verse refers to psychology, not foreign policy.
The verses from Revelations were not about nor were they spoken by Jesus.
The message of Jesus was love, including to love your enemies.
You just said Jesus was a warmonger. Your name is Legion for you are many. Why not call yourself Sybil?
Jesus did not advocate violence or war. He called mankind to a higher plane of existence with God the Father and beyond pettiness and demagoguery; which seems to be in excess supply here. When Peter cut off the ear of the Centurion in the Garden of Gethsemane Jesus healed him. When called before Pilate and Herod he did not advocate violence, but became a willing sacrifice for all of mankind.
Thanks for the epistle, Dippy. Meanwhile the Buddhists are driving the Muslims into the sea in Burma. Even if Christ was relatively silent, other great Teachers like Krishna and Buddha eschewed pacifism, except for renunciates.

Will Bill Clinton Help Or Hurt His Wife’s Campaign?

I guess Bill is still needed. Dead or alive.
Do you think that 72 bimbos are waiting for Bill in the Heaven, or wherever the Hell he is going?
James Comey folds. US becomes the land of the flying monkeys.
FBI Director James Comey announced Tuesday that he was referring the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server to prosecutors at the Department of Justice for a “prosecutive decision.”
He said he would recommend to the DOJ that “no charges are appropriate in this case.”
worthless €#!??¿?^
So Bloomberg reports that Comey over yonder isn’t recommending charges over the emails. No surprise there.
Most of the time the way something looks is the way it is. Did the FBI investigation look meaningless? Did Comey’s recommendation look political?
What did you think when you heard that Bill and Loretta had a meeting? How did it look to you? Did the word “fix” cross your mind? Be honest.
Maybe the prospect of a President Trump was too much for the bulls at the FBI, even for a Republican like Comey, maybe ESPECIALLY for a Republican. I mean, after all, Hillary proved herself to be a faithful servant of the Oligarchs, taking millions from Wall Street, bought and paid-for many times over.
How many millions should it take? I don’t know about Hillary, maybe she has ambitions towards being a lady of wealth and taste. But for a small-town hustler like Bill, given his background, the step-son of a violent alcoholic, and given his peccadilloes, and never mind his intellectual exertions, probably not that many. A couple million would keep him up to his neck in junk-food and babes for the rest of his life. I mean, you can take the boy out of Arkansas but you can’t take the Arkansas out of the boy. I think the Oligarchs waaaaay over-paid.
And besides, everyone knows that a hundred yards from Capitol Hill party distinctions are meaningless. They’re all in Oligarch pockets.
Not everyone can be bought. My, what a crass materialist you are. Money does make the world goe round.
“The law mattered. It applied equally to everyone. We demanded that it did, all of us – politicians, the media, and regular citizens. Oh, there were mistakes and miscarriages of justice but they weren’t common and they weren’t celebrated – they were universally reviled. And, more importantly, they weren’t part and parcel of the ideology of one particular party. There was once a time where you could imagine a Democrat scandal where the media actually called for the head of the Democrat instead of deploying to cover it up.
People assumed that the law mattered, that the same rules applied to everyone. That duly enacted laws would be enforced equally until repealed. That the Constitution set the foundation and that its guarantees would be honored even if we disliked the result in a particular case. But that’s not our country today.
The idea of the rule of law today is a lie. There is no law. There is no justice. There are only lies.
Hillary Clinton is manifestly guilty of multiple felonies. Her fans deny it half-heartedly, but mostly out of habit – in the end, it’s fine with them if she’s a felon. They don’t care. It’s just some law. What’s the big deal? It doesn’t matter that anyone else would be in jail right now for doing a fraction of what she did. But the law is not important. Justice is not important.”
We owe them nothing.

Same goes for an oath. Worthless promises. Be happy for Hillary. She has worked all her life to become the first woman president and now it is even more within her grasp. Trump, on the other hand has legal problems, big ones, and political problems. He may resign rather than go to jail.
Dueteronomy 28 = like reading the news.

============
This is my wife to a T. She absolutely detests Trump and besides, Hillary is a woman. That’s all she needs to know. She refuses to watch or listen to anything that reflects negatively on Hillary.
I lost twenty bucks betting with mine about it, not because of that she is more realist than me.
Trump rages that the system is rigged. But of course it’s rigged.
Zerohedge comically declares that Comey’s decision will send “shock waves” through the nation’s capitol. Shockwaves? Why? Who could possibly be shocked? No chance in hell Hillary is facing charges. Not with Trump as her opponent.
See, Trump could be dangerous to the status quo. Imagine if he’s good for his word, upsetting all these cosy trade arrangements that were so profitable for the Oligarchs and their attendant clerisy. There’s just too much money at stake.
Nope, no chance Hillary is facing charges. They will do what they have to do to make sure that Trump and his entourage never stink up the White House. And if by some accident Trump does make it, they’ll make sure his tenancy there will be short.
In two weeks the Republicans will throw Trump out of the party and nominate someone else. And they have the right to do so legally. The RNC is a private organization, not public. The RNC sets its own rules.
My synopsis of the FBI Comey’s speech this AM: “Hillary isn’t a criminal, only a completely inept executive.” I like how he goes on further to explain that even though nothing criminal happened, administrators who engage in this type of behavior face “sanctions & discipline”.
OK, next question: How is Obama going to sanction the presumptive democrat nominee?
See how wonderfully the FBI wilted and withered in its responsibility to the Nation. A system we can believe in!. Comey will be wearing a nice “I’m with Her” lapel button commencing today.
No doubt a real confidence builder for Rodan and Bill. These folks can get away with ANYTHING.
I’m taking wagers that Deval Patrick is going to be her pick for veep. (Then immediately after the Democrats win the election Deval is going to announce that he is channeling Esther Rolle as Florida Evans and in the process of transitioning.)
Please oh please, not Double Patrick , If a man could talk out of both sides of his mouth he would be my man.
http://www.nationalreview.com/article/437454/american-elite-and-american-people
Prosecutor Andrew McCarthy and also a friend of Comey: There was ample cause to prosecute. Lack of intent simply doesn’t matter in cases of gross negligence. The statute is being essentially rewritten to give Hillary a pass.
Lack of intent and gross negligence are basically the same thing.
Rush Limbaugh
A dumb trick by an unworthy man, either overwhelmed with ambition and/or fear for his career or life.
OMG duck! The librarian may come over to say,” Maa’m please control your laughing out loud. This is the library.” First it’s out damn spot (from the dress several years back- poor woman- collateral damage I suppose) Now, it’s out damn e-Mail. How funny is that.
Horror of horrors though, 3 paragraphs in and I’m like, oh no, he’s not going to mention the Trumpster, rhymes with Dumpster. (Guess that’s no coinkeydink). Donald Trump’s slogan should be “MAKE ME GREATER.” F the country. The Dumpster, errr I mean Trumpster talks about getting jobs back in the U.S. Funny, aren’t his shirts and ties and shit made in Bangladesh. What a lying ass S.O.B Course, they all are. They don’t call ’em Po LIE ticians for nothing. Another original. If you don’t, I crack myself up.
About that blog title last week, you know the death to Zombies thing, another coinkeydink (?) that Kanye West’s infamous video comes out with wax dummies of famous people like the Dumpster, himself, Bush and several others sleeping in bed together. What was the subliminal there, that they’re in bed together, or that they’re sleeping, Both could be true. Good luck Chump, errr Trump. You’re gonna need it.
My side hurts.
Listen nutcase, only Trump can save us now from the Evil Warmongering Witch. All others have fallen or are cowed into silence. ONE MAN refuses to bow down. He deserves your confidence, your devotion, and your vote.
Nothin’ doin’ Janos. I’ll die first! I’m a democrat for many other reasons including, you never heard of a good piece of elephant.
I assure you Janos, I’m saner than most. I thought you were vacation. Like that name calling. It suits you.
Janos, barbisbest deserves respect as a woman who posts to CFN. Your name calling and misogynist rhetoric are unbecoming of a gentleman. If you cannot endure the heat, please vacate the kitchen.
Trump deserves to be ignored, since it’s his worst nightmare. If only the whole world could be convinced to give him the silent treatment, he’d crack in under five minutes.
A more likely scenario:
Bill: Hey bitch, wanna phuque?
Interesting take on the “Donald” that I heard recent from a cartoonist that portrays him. He said, “he seems like a hurt person, very difficult to draw.” Wow, what an insight, like impoverished Hitler in reverse. Yikes.
It’s worth repeating, I am a democrat for many more reasons than, you never heard of a good piece of elephant. I’ll die first before I vote for that megalomaniac Trump, whoever the hell you are.
You fear the trunk. Everything follows from that.
The FBI has more resources for fact finding than CFN. Comey said that the FBI could not find a case in the past that would support bringing criminal charges based upon the facts. The bureau did not find clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information or vast quantities of material, or indications of disloyalty to the U.S. or efforts to obstruct justice. Case closed. Be happy for Hillary.
Intent has nothing to do with the governing statute. If one’s negligence could cause harm to the interests of the USA that is sufficient. Judge Napolitano wrote in January: “The Obama Department of Justice prosecuted a young sailor for espionage for sending a selfie to his girlfriend, because in the background of the photo was a view of a sonar screen on a submarine.”
Murder signifies intent. Manslaughter does not, but each is a felony.
Sorry WPA. Not that the Rule of Law has been seen or heard from lately, but today it is undeniably dead and buried.
You want Rule of Law? Vote for Trump. He will deport 20 million lawbreakers so fast it will make your head spin. Fascists are good law makers and enforcers.
Your worship of Law should preclude any notions of love or forgiveness. MANO DURA!
Unfortunately we live in a time of feminine ascendance, possibly with the first woman US president, so Law takes a backseat to humanity. Chill, bro.
So get Brutha O to pardon the poor negligent slobs like the sailor mentioned above.
Yeah, right.
As Celente has said “Justice” means “Just Us.”
He also has said that when people have nothing left to lose, they lose it.
Your feminine ascendancy might be interrupted by those with nothing left to lose.
Cry Havoc, and let slip the dogs of war, and all that… y’know?
Mercy follows repentance. Justice follows defiance.
I’ve got 5 words for Hillary ” Liar, Liar, pantsuits on fire!”
A##ka do the words “Ignorantia legis neminem excusat” mean anything to you? They apply to me and you but I guess not Billary. I swear I saw a barrel behind that curtain when Comey spoke.
wpisssss,
Viva la difference! Your perpetual divisive propaganda is getting weaker by the day. Surrender, Dorothy.

Janos, the feminine is in ascendance in all areas, including the military.
You should work on getting in touch with your feminine qualities. We all, including deities, have both masculine and feminine qualities, so you can pick any deity to help you: Pele (Hawaiian), Brigit (Celtic), Amaterasu (Japanese), Thoth (Egyptian), Mani (Norse), Chandra (Hindu), etc.
The solar feminine expresses creativity, passion, and strength; the lunar masculine provides support, devotion, and protection.
For the past 5,000 years, assertion, rationality, and independence have been considered masculine traits, while compassion, intuition, and interdependence have been relegated to the feminine. Our spiritual development, indeed our survival on this planet, requires an egalitarian and collaborative relationship between masculine and feminine, on both individual and collective levels.
This is being realized in the US military with its LGBT initiatives. It will happen soon in ISIS as well. Put away thy sword, Janos.
You, my friends, must VERY CAREFULLY read and re-read that post by our semi-automated snitch informant on our little community.
Good news: they still haven’t gotten the military! not entirely!!
Bad news: they are no longer afraid to admit that the ISIS is them.
wpa, the Goddess you worship is Lilith and you haven’t explained why the rise of Lilith is a good thing.
Lilith is the Matron of modern Feminism. She takes power that doesn’t belong to her and her works beget anomie and chaos. She takes what others have produced and undermines walls and ceilings that were installed by superior minds and for causes above her understanding.
“Women and children shall rule over them.”
Lilith is the mother goddess of childbirth, children, women, and sexuality. You have demonized her, JiminFlorida, as has the patriarchy.
wpa, you are really straining with your empty defense of Kali-Ma Klinton and her evil spirit, Lilith.
Only the most rabid Wiccan types can stretch time, space, and reality to whitewash the likes of Hillary Rodan and her Guardian Demon, Lilith.
Nothing new, just another cycle of ignorance and chutzpah devouring itself.
“While modern societies typically see history as a linear movement–either ever improving or declining from a past high–ancient and traditional cultures believed time was cyclical, just like the waxing and waning of the moon, the rising and setting of the sun, the birth and death of living creatures, the planting and harvesting of crops, and the seasons of the year. The idea of sacred time as an eternal round and the symbol of the ring or wheel is common to many faiths, including Buddhism and Hinduism. The Old Testament is in many ways the story of a “pride cycle” with repeating periods of renewal, regression, and repentance. And many ancients couldn’t help but notice that times of war and peace seemed to move in a regular cycle as well.”

The first 5 minutes of his speech FBI Director James Comey devoted entirely to ludicrous explanation of the fundamentals of Data Recovery, but the second 5 minutes are implicitly devoted to assigning Hillary Clinton an honorary title “Madam above the Law”.
It remains to be seen see how this cookery will be digested by the rest of Americans, but from now on at any negotiations, when representatives of the United States start talking about democracy and the rule of law, it will be possible and even necessary to get up and leave, the more that even without this recent development any talk of Americans of democracy and the rule of law was tantamount to a declaration of war.
This is certainly an outstanding achievement in the field of diplomacy, and today Russia have greeted it with appropriate fireworks of cruise missiles successfully hitting targets in Syria at a distance of more than a thousand miles.
But I think that the outstanding achievements of American democracy in the field of jurisprudence, especially in the field of international law, are still ahead of us and it’s frightening to think what kind of fireworks will welcome these coming developments and at what distance.
The funny thing is that yesterday, apparently knowing in advance about the findings, to which the FBI would come as a result of many months of investigation, WikiLeaks released more than a thousand of Hillary Clinton e-mails related to the war, that the FBI did not find her private server.

I don’t expect Ms. Lynch to prosecute now, do you? What a relief for Hillary. Now she can pivot and destroy Mr. Trump.
No, my semi-automated snitch informant, I do not. My hopes now lie in a different dimension.
Can you admit it is not a democracy?
Can you admit it was never a democracy… Not even in your beloved 1950s.
Easily. It was a Republic = a nation of Law.
What have we now (since we couldn’t keep it)?
Please consult my remarks above. Following that possibly you’ll grasp that women are inherently more risk averse than are men; in fact, examining the anthropological record you’ll see that women consistently demand from men safety and security (that is, “certainty” — as in minimized anxiety). That’s why under the current illusion of “security nets” ala government women believe male protection no longer has useful shelf life. Subsequently, women feel no need to tolerate the innate tension between gender agenda differences. So stop your verbal masturbation (bitching) about how awful are men and patriarchy in general.
You are fighting ghosts. A republic is a democracy.
REPUBLIC
government in which supreme power resides in a body of citizens entitled to vote
Why then are there two words? Stop making shiite up.
My Country Used to be
Great land of Liberty, to thee I weep.
Land where illegals hide,
Land where Ken-ne-dy died,
From every mountainside
Co-o-rruption rings.
Oh,…so now you’re confessing that the destiny of our nation should be the expressed will of its citizenry,…..not default to however many foreign nationals choose to come here illegally? Does that hold even if the citizenry aren’t on board with all the Liberal Left’s sanctimonious PC/diversity rhetoric?
Wrong again as usual. A democracy leaves no political protection for political minorities. A republic uses representation to mitigate the volatility of direct democracy. Even better would be a parliamentary republic, which not only uses elected representation but, has provisions to protect the 49% from the tyranny of the 51%. The minority power is guaranteed proportional representation as opposed to the Winner Take All system we are under.
What a relief for Hillary. – wpa
=========
Yeah, as if she was actually concerned.
Hillary will not be prosecuted…I assume that prayer had much to do with the decision. I can see it clearly in my mind…Loretta on her knees, Bill with his head bowed…What would Jesus do? Forgive and love thy neighbor… I would expect at the moment of “enlightenment” Bill exclaimed, “THANK YOU SWEET JESUS!”.
We, indeed, live in interesting times….

“Why then are there two words? Stop making shiite up.”
They are called synonyms. I did not make them up. The English language is rich.
As for “Land where illegals hide” … You do not get to decide who can contribute. “Illegals” contribute more than they take. The land belongs to those who want to be here, irrespective of civil status. Stop being a republican bully.
The land belongs to the One who created it. When We the People repent (change mind) about sin (lawlessness), then our chastisement (oppression of the ungodly) will end.
“They are called synonyms.”
This is the part you are making up. The words existed long before you did. Saying they are synonyms does not make them synonyms.
We all live in Arkansas now, even if you have all of your teeth.
Arkansas has changed in the last twenty years, as have Bill and Hillary. . Anti-white stereotypes should also change.
“Is it all that strange that when Washington fixtures write outraged op-eds about the “fascistic” Donald Trump or the “self-harming” Brexit voters, no one seems to listen any more? Does a Hank Paulson — former assistant to John Erhlichman, former CEO of Goldman Sachs (which has given over $800,000 to Hillary’s campaigns as well as $675,000 in speaking fees), former Treasury secretary, and of some $700 million in net worth — ever sense that his assurances that Hillary is presidential and not corrupt are not believable? Or that the effect of his politicking is analogous to angrily waving a Mexican flag at a Trump rally? In a sense, these revolving-door apparatchiks and incestuous couples are bullies, who use their megaphones to disparage others who are supposedly blinkered and ignorant to the point of not believing that a videomaker caused the attacks in Libya, not trusting the Iranians, being skeptical about the theory of sanctuary cities, missing the genius of the European Union, not seeing the brilliant logic in allowing in 12 million immigrants from southern Mexico and Central America under unlawful auspices, panicking about $20 trillion in debt, and incapable of appreciating the wonders of outsourcing. In matters of deception, ostentatious vulgarity never proves as injurious as the hubris of the mannered establishment. So what I resent most about the Washington hollow men is not the sources and methods through which they parlay wealth, power, and influence, or the values they embrace to exercise and perpetuate their privilege and sense of exalted self, but the feigned outrage that they express when anyone dares suggest, by word or vote, that they are mediocrities and ethical adolescents — and really quite emotional, after all.”

Wouldn’t Trump look grand, standing boldly upright with his montera set jauntily and his muleta ready to swirl!

Stop the madness. Study the basics of populations and the carrying capacity of their environment. Blacks are great like Elrond says. Just leave them alone and they’ll be fine – and more than fine. Stop holding them back with charity!
It was terribly disappointing to finally learn that Hillary will walk on accusations of impropriety. It really irks me when justice doesn’t prevail. The one thing that gets to me is unfairness. I know life isn’t necessarily supposed to be fair, but life is hard enough without people acting badly. To be an avaricious crook taking advantage of others only makes existence nastier than it already is. And when someone gets away with bad behavior, well…
Comey found Hillary “extremely careless”, but not “grossly negligent”. Gross Negligence is extreme carelessness. Also, Hillary had the server installed in her bathroom at her house, which is clearly “Intent”. (Did she not intend to have the personal server at her home?). Comely basically said that Hillary is indictable, but he did not recommend bringing charges. Double-Speak… Insane…. And the announcement comes immediately after Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch met in private “to talk about their grandkids.” It’s going to end very badly.
“But Comey administered an extraordinary tongue-lashing to Clinton and her aides, rebuking them for being “extremely careless” in the handling of classified information and saying the presumptive Democratic nominee should have known an unclassified email system was no place to conduct sensitive government business.
The FBI director pointed out that the probe was tasked with examining whether Clinton or her aides had mishandled classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way.”
Puckered,
You’ve missed the larger picture (as, admittedly, have most).
The purpose of a “private server” is to protect its contents from the FOIA. So now, any evil-doings by evil-doers (a goodly portion of career criminal politicos and their minions) will be hidden from the nosy public by having their ugly dealings subject only to “tongue-lashings” instead of the appropriate jail time. Precedent has been set. Do you see the gradual shaving away of restraints on ruling psychopaths and a tightening of the manacles on the lumpenproles? (This is also why dividing the proles into warring camps is of utmost importance. Why do you think certain posters, long outed as operatives, are so prolific and never-ending? Think, Big Picture!)
If you’ve noticed that I don’t post as often as I used to, it’s because I’ve regretfully come to the conclusion that the comment section here has really deteriorated, and too many posts anger me. I once had an email conversation with JHK in which we discussed evil postings. I requested he consider banning some people, but he believes in free speech.
I believe in free speech, too, but what I’m tired of are the innumerable and unceasing racial and religious comments by some individuals here – we all know who they are – who twist everything anyone posts, no matter the subject, into something anti-Black or anti-Jew without stop, like a fucking broken record. If I say I stubbed my toe, they respond with a comment about Blacks, always trying to somehow link an innocuous comment made by someone else into a racial or religious matter. This so transparent, it’s pathetic.
It’s easy to say just scroll past these people, but in practice it can be hard to ignore (which is why they do what they do).
I’ve noticed how the bigots insinuate themselves into, and take over a conversation such that the original thread is lost. For anyone with a brain, this is very frustrating.
So, in my opinion, I think JHK is making a big mistake by letting this happen without restrictions. It’s not a matter of free speech, it’s a matter of him letting his blog turn into something he doesn’t really want it to be. It’s a shame.
“I believe in free speech” Liar
Yup. Double talk.
Call it Comeyesque.
As they say in the old country: fuck you. You didn’t have the brains to figure out what I was saying. My intent was to show that my complaint had to with the fact that “you guys” always,unceasingly turn most everything into a discussion about race or Jews and Muslims. It had nothing to do with free speech, but I think the difference is totally beyond your ability to comprehend.
Comprehension always seems to be reserved for those that agree with you. Labeling someone with the buzzword “religion” relegates their belief to the realm of fantasy. I agree that not all things are impinged by race, but all things are effected by what we believe (by-live) and are therefore worthy of consideration, even if it is uncomfortable to you. Speak freely and know that your ideas will be weighed.
Mene, mene, tekal upharsin.
Bill, my people will be heard – one way or another. There is a tremendous force behind us. Mr Kunstler is showing Wisdom. Your idea is business as usual: all over the internet comments sections have closed down or are monitored into insignificance.
Where did you get the idea that having a Republic would be easy? That their are no fist fights in Congress like there used to be is a very, very bad sign. It’s become professional wrestling. The internet is where real conversation happens now – and you want to ban it!
if you want a fistfight, I would be happy to oblige. You and I have metaphorically bumped heads for years, so maybe it’s time to take it to the next level.
Let’s get it on Pay-per-view! I’ll Ref.
Would 5% of the gate suffice?
“if you want a fistfight, I would be happy to oblige. You and I have metaphorically bumped heads for years, so maybe it’s time to take it to the next level.”
Bill, with all respect, that statement is as ugly as any I’ve seen on this site.
“…I’ve noticed how the bigots insinuate themselves into, and take over a conversation such that the original thread is lost.”
Beans,
That would be the *whole point*. As I have said, more cynicism and suspicion are quickly becoming ‘assets’ in an age of cloaked agendas, paid propaganda dissemination and manufactured consent. Sorry for that… and yes, we used to discuss real strategies for lower-energy living and resiliency, but that’s been [interestingly] out-shouted. So much for a world made by hand; it will now be a world spun by spiders of deceit.
You’re assuming some kind of unity as a premise that was never actually existent. The Elite aren’t creating racism to divide us – they’re using the natural racism that was already present and using it to inflame the situation. A key distinction that is lost on you. They’re also using electricity against us – did they create that too?
If the various people dwelt apart as is organic and natural – two things you say you’re for – then the Elite would have a much harder time “using racism” against the Nation, right?
No one is stopping from talking about your peas and carrots or your prepping – things I admit you know a lot about. Maybe you’re just not as interested in these things as you wish you were. Maybe they’re just not as interesting as the things we do talk about?
Bait not taken, minion. Keep fishin’.
“The propagandist’s purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human.” — Aldous Huxley
It’s more than blatantly obvious that you’re not trying to convince me of your correctness, you’re just throwing shit up against the wall to gull non-thinkers. I would suggest, regarding myself, that your time would be better spent attempting to go fuck yourself.
“unceasing racial and religious comments ”
Bill,
Unfortunately, those two topics are the salient issues of our time…both potentially existential, and currently capable of degrading the quality of life of us all…on the short term.
If I wake up tomorrow, I could find the electrical grid went down overnight, or that Russian troops are massing on the Polish border. These are potentially existential issues. IMO, fighting over race and/or religion, while nasty, is not existential. And if I’m wrong, then I’m not sure the human race ought to survive.
Bill,
Civil disorder and/or an extremist terrorist action would be the possible situations we would both be unlucky enough to experience.
The Anglo-American legal system is basically a rigorous, logical way of thinking summarized as follows: Legal Issue; Legal Rule; Application of the Facts to the Rule; Logical Conclusion.
Here, Issue: Did Hillary intend to mishandle classified information, or was Hillary grossly negligent in handling classified information?
Rule: Intent = deliberate or willful. Intent can be imputed from an act of the defendant.
Grossly Negligent = extreme carelessness.
Apply Facts to Rule: Hillary knowingly, deliberately kept a personal server in her bathroom at her home.
Comely finds Hillary handled classified information with “extreme carelessness.”
Conclusion: Hillary violated the statute.
No reasonable person could reach a different conclusion.
Yes, he seems to be letting us know the Truth, but is too weak, ambitious, or frightened to do the right thing. It’s up to us now to put her in her place. Vote Trump and perhaps some justice against these people will be had. Just denying her the Presidency is a fine start.

Perfect (mature) love casts out fear.
That and a ‘Co Exist’ bumper sticker and u can hit the road, fool.
I’m not afraid for me, I’m afraid for the human race. To cope with the changes coming down the road, humanity better grow up and mature.
The World is changing, Bill. As Whites awaken, your people will naturally lose their dominance over us. As a lover of humanity, you should feel happy for us. But if that’s not what you’re feeling, then maybe you aren’t the lover that you think you are. Maybe your love is far more provincial, conventional, and ethnically focused.
Or maybe you do love the Human Race except for Whites. That’s what has been taught in Academia for all the decades of your dominance: all Human cultures are great and equal except for the Western which is unspeakably evil. Now obviously that is going to lead to social breakdown in the West – and hardship for your people as well. Ask yourself this: How on Earth did Howard Zinn’s work of hatred get into every college in the land?
You are saying what I am saying. Some call this foolish. They think I am afraid of MY future. Not.

During this year fireworks and celebration, US perform “God Save the Tsar!” – The national anthem of the Russian Empire in Russian.

God, save the Tsar!
If America on its Independence Day makes such performance, not everything’s lost, and the American people will cope with temporary difficulties.
Who will become modern days Lincoln and ask Russian Tsar, once again as in 1863, to send Navy to New York and San Francisco harbors?
Tsar Alexander II, who sent troops to NY and SF for 7 months to support Lincoln’s effort to eradicate slavery, had empathy for the serfs in Russia. He tried to reform the injustice in his country, but the Russian aristocrats didn’t want their cheap labor to disappear.
Being the target of assassination attempts, Alexander sent a heartfelt letter to Mary Todd Lincoln when her husband died.

And how did the Left respond to the Liberator Tsar? They blew him to pieces. How did they treat the last King of France? They kept him naked in cold, dark room, making him sing dirty songs about his parents. He died after about a year of this torment. One of the faithful saved his heart as a relic.
These people are not to be parlayed with, but only stopped before they corrupt the people. As Carlos Castaneda said, just because someone looks human doesn’t mean they are. Two arms, two legs, so what? They aren’t human. If you had psychic vision, you wouldn’t see a normal human aura.

Wikipedia: “American journalist David Neiwert argues that eliminationist rhetoric is becoming increasingly mainstream within the American right wing, fueled in large part by the extremist discourse found on conservative blogs and talk radio, which may provoke a resurgence of lone wolf terrorism.”
Janos: “Two arms, two legs, so what? They aren’t human.”
He means it, people. He and others like him are serious, and more and more of them will act accordingly if decent people allow politics to deteriorate much further.
In other words, you approve of what was done to the Tsar and the torment unto death of the young King of France. And that makes you less than human.
Non sequitur.
Trump understands that in a country where there was a coup, elections are not possible.
Theoretically, Lynch could still indict, delegates could still vote for Sanders, Republicans could still impeach Obama, but realistically – only the Second Amendment.
What solution does the second amendment offer? More violence, more bloodshed, more death.
Then what? Things are magically better?
History does not support the efficiency of second amendment solutions.
“It really irks me when justice doesn’t prevail.” –beantownbill
The FBI investigated. No crime occurred. Real justice therefore requires NO prosecution. To prosecute an innocent person would be an injustice.
Thousands of American soldiers died to stop Sadaam Hussein. Donald Trump sides with Sadaam, praising his sadistic authoritarianism.
“Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee for the Republican presidential nomination, once again lauded deposed Iraq dictator Saddam Hussein during a campaign stop.
Speaking at a rally in Raleigh, North Carolina, on Tuesday evening, Trump praised what he said was Hussein’s innate ability to kill terrorists “so good.” While it’s not the first time he’s mentioned the former leader, this time Trump elaborated that he appreciated Hussein’s authoritarian take on civil liberties.
“You know what he did well? He killed terrorists. He did that so good,” Trump said. “They didn’t read them the rights, they didn’t talk. They were a terrorist, it was over.”
Trump went on to call Iraq the “Harvard for terrorism,” to scattered laughter.”
Donald Trump has the support of millions of Republicans.
Wrong as always, wpa. Thousands of American soldiers were SACRIFICED as expendable cannon fodder to push the Cheney-Rumsfeld-Wolfowitz PNAC agenda forward. Our soldiers are mostly mercenaries (thanks to the Economic Draft) and those who aren’t are suffering varying degrees of self-deception and delusion.
Saddam Hussein had the very difficult task of keeping an artificial nation-state intact. Iraq, like most post-WW1 colonial creations, was an artificial geographic entity that captured incompatible tribes within its borders. Saddam kept order by NECESSARILY using force. Iraq required a classic strongman to quell agitators and keep the tenuous social contract intact.
Democracy is a rare treasure that cannot sustain itself without an inherent and organic demographic harmony i.e. homogeneity, a shared history, a common purpose, AND common religious belief. ALL OF THAT must exist for democracy to succeed.
Diversity yields up all the hell holes of the world because diversity is chaos. Diversity in the U.S exists only because there is still a legacy center i.e. White European and British heritage. But, that center is badly damaged and has been robbed of its gravity to keep the whole in common accord.
Thus, The Donald (despite his grade school vocabulary) is right in that Saddam and Muammar Gaddafi were right to be who they were and that Iraq and Libya could not exist without them. The evidence is out there for all to see.
“Organic Demographic Harmony” – well said. It’s the key to so much, but ideologically driven fools are too proud get off their high horse and consider it. They’d much rather blow the world to smithereens than admit they were ever wrong.
I thought this all blew over?
It never will.
A good explanation of why Hillary should be in jail today written by former US military intelligence officer James Wesley Rawles:
https://survivalblog.com/
Everyone does their part. Prosecutor and personal friend Andrew McCarthy was on Rush today. His tone was even, the outrage of yesterday already gone. “Jim” Comey is still a good man. In other words, his class peers are not going to shun him as he deserves. If they did, what would happen when they got in trouble? Maybe the same thing! Same thing happened when “Jim” Clapper was caught lying.
We’re no better than Blacks now. We now give each other instant forgiveness like Jesse Jackson got from his church when he was caught in adultery. Nuthin changes. The scam must go on at all costs.
An aspect I had not considered: possible or no?
“Failure to recommend Hillary’s prosecution was a SMART move by FBI Director Comey. It leaves the door open for a TRUMP administration to prosecute.
Any such recommendation now would result in a plea deal for a misdemeanor and a Presidential Pardon for her crimes; prohibiting “double jeopardy”. This is the best possible outcome. FOR NOW.
She can run but she cannot hide unless she wins.”
Didn’t someone say our speech should be simple? Our yes’s yes’s, and our no’s no’s? This kind of Machiavellian scheming (even with the best of motivations) is not the job of a public servant. It’s simply not how we got to be where we are.
I assume he failed in his duty through weakness of character, either ambition or fear for his life. Getting her indicted might not lead to a conviction, but it would effectively keep her out of office. Which is more important? Trump could still go after her for other things later on.
He failed maybe via combination of all three? Interesting CV: DOJ (kept Martin Armstrong in jail), Lockheed-Martin, Bridgewater Assos., Columbia Law research scholar (during which time became Director of HSBC in their drug-money-laundering heyday), appointed by Obama as FBI head.
The usual NYC-Money DC-Power breeding ground.
For another take try Wayne Madsden at Infowars. Not Snopes-approved, of course, but we knew that anyway.
Martin Armstrong –is he now working for ‘them’?
Martin Armstrong works for Martin Armstrong.
Comey, the Queen’s pawn, has moved to the eighth rank and will be promoted. Since there is room for only one Queen, he becomes a rook. A rook for the Queen crook.
With guiltless guile, she glides across the board, and with Machiavellian moves, she closes in to checkmate the would be king, abandoned by his knights and bishops.
Yes, I fear it. Shah mat. The would be king is dead. And so is the Republic.
Bean Town Bill. Appreciated greatly your comment up yonder about JHK banning some people from the site. He probably should exercise his prerogative to ban several, in all likelihood, long ago. Ah well. You know.. making your way in the world today takes everything you got, taking a break from it all sure would help a lot. Sometimes you gotta go where everybody knows your name (?) and they’re semi-to minimally glad you came.
Back on the politics subject, we should just refer to it as the battle of the billionaires. Has always been, I guess. Has it come to this, choosing between an egomaniac and a war mongering witch (interchangeable) to govern this country. I read somewhere when a country’s government goes bad, it’s the responsibility of the people to change it, or something like that. We are supposedly the most intelligent species (what?) on the planet, and yet more than half of the people who are in the senate are multi-millionaires. Is this the best we can do.
WPA-CCC thanks too for your defense of me above. Blessings. Many times Janos seems to be on the offense.
Since the nation has selected a reality T.V. host as it’s Republican nominee..Let’s talk Truth or Consequences, that game show. Remember, ‘Cept now it may be Truth and Consequences.

it doesn’t interfere with his flights back and forth from NY-LA
Now for something completely different, in a thrift book store the other day, shelves and shelves of books, walked right up to one written by author Sylvia Browne, who I believe was a gifted spiritualist. The title had to do with the days we are living in. What a beautiful work! It’s not for the narrow minded. In it she writes that the veil is getting thinner between this world and the other side. In the coming decades many people, by various means, will gain knowledge of their past lives. It could account for the increase in psychic experiences, if the veil is getting thinner. Many women, educated ones even, believe that it is. Laugh, consider, deny, call her a nutcase, call whoever one, but the song remains the same. And then there’s the individual who had a near death experience and to this day maintains they felt more alive when they were “on the other side” There you go again.. ah yes, always has to be the spiritual side of things.
(the contents of this rant are not necessarily the view of management)
Elephants are one of the highest species of life on this planet. One woman who runs an elephant orphanage is careful not to let them get too attached to any one attendant. She had baby elephants die of grief when she was away for a long weekend.
In my past lives, I’ve been both a witch and a witch hunter (like Vincent Price). There is great joy in both. What joy to call the quarters and the powers! But there is also joy in breaking down doors, a sword in one hand and a Bible in the other. Evil must be punished, barb.
All major Spiritual Traditions are in agreement that the world is going into a dark age. The so called New Age Movement is commercial for the most part, and when sincere – misguided and allied to the fallen powers of the world, both natural and supernatural.
For the record: I don’t think you’re a nut for being interested in these things. I’m undecided about spiritualism. It may be real, but it can’t go beyond the lower astral planes. There is obviously much illusion and trickery, both by unscrupulous people and by the spirits. Ouija boards are very dangerous because you are inviting spirits into your body to move the planchette. Somehow the Mediums themselves seem to be protected, perhaps by Guardians of the Movement on the other side. Kids fooling around don’t have this protection though. Of course many Mediums are careful Not to invite spirits into their bodies….
It is not your “past lives”, it is simply racial memory. If the word racial offends, simply read it as the memories of your ancestors passed directly through to you via biology. No mystery here.
Janos, somewhere way up in the comments was a quote from the Kolbrin.
I will vouch for the superior spiritual, intellectual, and historical content of that book. The only legitimate publisher is the Culdian Trust and I have a copy of the book. Despite that some of the original content was lost over the centuries, what remains is a magnificent repository of true knowledge. There is a stunning account of a massive comet (dragon) that came through the heavens and how that comet destroyed Mars, took its oceans, and created havoc on the Earth. That comet, after many near misses with Earth, eventually became the planet Venus.
Even though the authors of those books never saw each other or even lived on the same part of the world, the harmony between the books reveals the same transcendental Mind that brought such books into the world.
Kolbrin? Planet X? Add to this posts from Stormfront… This site has gone from being haunted by wackadoos and kooks to being inhabited by them.
You wouldn’t DARE open, let alone study, the Kolbrin and risk having your presumptions to be utterly discredited.
One should NEVER mindlessly accept the Establishment Narrative or stay within the approved envelope of knowledge. It’s always a good idea to hear the dissenting opinion in Supreme Court cases, the side of history from those who lost in WW1 and WW2, and religious knowledge outside of Jewish influence.
But, you won’t do that. You’ll take the opinion of others who’ve never read the ancient texts. You’ll on the well-traveled highway and in good company with the rest of the mob on their way to Perdition.
Frankiti,
Yep, the pollution is complete; nothing of value can live here anymore. (That would be, “Mission Accomplished” and “Heckuva job, Brownie”.)
Note how all “unaffiliated” posters are being told what they think and who they are. Common and effective tactic for division and isolation. Who are the experts in this type of psy-op shit, I ask? Strangely (due to an overabundance of hubris), they think the reckonings will not touch them. Surprises for everyone!
Two motivational words for now and future: ‘Over’ and ‘Next’. They’re all you need for a touchstone to what’s real …and how to deal with it.
Ozone, I call upon all posters to do everything they can to stop these psy-op dividers and isolators. Thank you…
Now watch this drive
Sounds great. I’ll look into it.
“That cmoment after many near misses with Earth, eventually became the planet Venus.”
Venus’ new position snuggled us out via gravity to a larger orbit of 365.4 days per year. Mars meanwhile was slung into an elliptical orbit in which it passed Earth every 54 years. This contributed the the 108 year catastrophes (near passages) described in several ancient texts.
The last passage was an inner passage inside the Roche Limit causing the oceans of Mars (smaller) into conflict with our larger magnetic field. These two magnets interact as magnets and repel or attract one another and the most viscous materials give up first. Gases and liquids rain down into the larger biome and create havoc upon inhabitants unprepared or in disbelief of catastrophic events; lack of systemic awareness.
The lowest altitudes give up their advantages of high heavy Gases as well as terrain to water. Those that retreat quickly or can navigate air or water can manage, many didn’t. The miracle is the timing.
“Bean Town Bill. Appreciated greatly your comment up yonder about JHK banning some people from the site.”
Barb,
Ban them? Why half measures? We should kill the Haters, harvest their organs and sell their families into slavery… All monies generated would be donated to worthy causes….
Comey apparently wishes the Southern illegals to feel at home and comfortable in what for them would be a familiar socio-political environment.
The US has always been corrupt, they just did a better job of swaddling and smothering the infants in flags and jingoistic hyperbole. Nothing confuses and hurts more than seeing through the illusion.
Ouija boards are very dangerous because you are inviting spirits into your body to move the planchette. – Janos
============
Your shitting me, right?
LOL! On the one Janos says he doesn’t believe in spiritualism. Then he warns not to allow spirits into your body, which is an admission he does believe. Unlike Trump he took two sentences to contradict himself.
There is a difference between the flaky New Age “spiritualism” and understanding that quickened entities, not composed of gross matter, do exist.
I’m sure Janos knows the difference and also knows that divine and evil personalities of that dimension exist. As shitty luck would have it, the evil and lesser entities are in a closer dimension to us than the Divine.
“quickened entities, not composed of gross matter, do exist.” –Jim hallucinating in Florida
I am with you on condemning wishy washy new age spiritualism. I don’t believe in invisible spirits of any kind, be they quick or slow.
I don’t believe in invisible spirits of any kind, be they quick or slow. – wpa

But it’s OK that 1.6 billion Muslims grovel 5 times a day before a non-existent spirit (Christians don’t grovel quite as much).
It’s not even groveling. It’s far worse. It’s reflexive, muscle-memory. It’s rote memorization of chants and incantations. There is no thought taking place. It’s reflex born from training. It’s the manifestation of a virus that subdues and subjugates the mind. It’s a sickness.
On the one [fill in the missing word] Janos says he doesn’t believe in spiritualism. Then he warns not to allow spirits into your body, – this is wpa accusing Janos of inconsistency…….. Wow, talk about balls.
Sir, is it possible to do a search at this site and find yr previous comments?
Yes.
Click on Ctrl F then enter your name in the drop down block.
No, I meant you don’t know who you’re talking to. As Swedenborg and other seers have said, there are many lying spirits who enjoy causing trouble and misleading people by pretending to be someone they aren’t. You’re already doing it and you haven’t even died yet. Imagine how much fun you’ll have as a spirit.
Grandpa, how many books have you read?
It’s like if you were to go into Times Square and start yelling “Who wants to come home with me.” Sooner or later, probably sooner, someone would oblige you. But who? You already gave up your right to choose.
Same thing with spiritualism: how do you know who or what is on the line and about to “come in”? It’s like when you go on your sex sites – how do you know that the young nubile you’re chatting with isn’t really Chris Christie sitting in his boxers back home?
It was an outrageous, absurd decision. Comey declares Hillary’s handling of classified information “extremely careless”, but then denies the legal system its responsibility to decide whether this constitutes “Gross Negligence.” Extreme Carelessness is Gross Negligence. It’s all very nauseating. Kierkegaard comes to mind: “The Sickness Unto Death”.
They need to have a Congressional inquiry into this. It stinks all to Hell.

Nixon’s rolling in his grave. He was born fifty years too early. What’s the point of laws? Comey’s interpretation makes about as much sense as what the definition of is, is.
That that is, is; and that that is not, is not that that is.
Maybe Bill was being prescient and coy with his question since now we know IS means The Islamic State, or Daesh.

You Can’t Touch This
Who comes to mind when you hear the description “Extremely Careless”?
Chief Inspector Clouseau?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inspector_Clouseau
They’d have us believe that Hillary is an “extremely careless” bumbling idiot, like Inspector Clouseau.
She was very careful, hence her getting away with it.
Add The Clintons to the list of institutions that are Too Big To Fail. That list is growing by the second and there’s at least a ten year backlog of reservations.
I know that I wouldn’t want to hire Hillary as my lawyer if she can’t keep my email communications to her confidential. In fact, I’m not sure that I would let her into my house unsupervised to do the cleaning given that she shows such recklessness and poor judgment. She might leave the iron on and burn down the house. Normally, when you hire someone for a position of some responsibility you ask for references to guard against inadvertently hiring someone who is either dishonest or “extremely careless.”
“She might leave the iron on and burn down the house.”
Even worse, she may leave it on your nuts while you’re tied up to your couch.
That sounds more like Hillary we all got to know…
Hillary is more than her outward manifestation. More than just Hillary Rodan, the Flying Lizard, she is currently as Kali-Ma. She of Indiana Jones in the Temple of Doom.
But, it’s no movie. It is reality now. Below is the chant when wpa_ccc offers her sacrifice of a White Anglo-Saxon male child, born of a good two-parent nuclear family, to Kali-Ma Klinton a.k.a. Hillary Rodan
Bali mangthi Kali Ma! Shakti degi Kali Ma!
Kali Ma. Kali Ma! Kali Ma, Shakti Deh!!!
Bali chadhau tere aage. Swikar karo.
Mother Kali wants a sacrifice. Mother Kali will give salvation.
Mother Kali. Mother Kali! Mother Kali give me power!!!
I offer sacrifice before you. Please accept.
“Even worse, she may leave it on your nuts while you’re tied up to your couch.”

On July 4 Tchaikovsky overture to the opera “1812” is typically performed, in which the full version includes a performance by the choir “God Save the Tsar”, but this choral piece was never performed until July 2015. And that year it was performed, and in Russian, which can be seen at around 1:28 this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjRlFSfppPg
After the meeting in Ireland that halted the catastrophic development of the Syrian crisis, Obama and Putin were not able to maintain normal contacts, as such contacts could end sadly for Obama from the disastrous political scandal to the meeting in an elevator with an armed man who escaped from a psychiatric hospital (see history of removal of his chief of security, female)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/armed-former-convict-was-on-elevator-with-obama-in-atlanta/2014/09/30/76d7da24-48e3-11e4-891d-713f052086a0_story.html
So contacts were secret in nature and emissaries confirmed their authority by passing into their capitals requirement of partners in the negotiations to confirm their credentials, because at stake was the settlement of the crisis that could’ve lead to a nuclear war against the will of both presidents and the likelihood of manipulation and provocation was great.
On the eve of April 17, 2014 Putin’s emissaries met with President Obama and he gave them a request to President Putin during a nationwide televised interview to answer the question about readiness of Obama to rescue the Russian president if he was drowning, so President Obama could confirm that negotiators that have come in contact with him, really represent Putin.
A similar request President Putin gave to Washington’s emissaries of President Obama, who arrived in Moscow to settle the Ukrainian crisis, in order to confirm their credentials. And the fact that President Putin has asked to perform “God Save the Tsar!” In Russian on the US Independence Day, says that in these negotiations he was not giving up Novorossia.
Generally these negotiations in a sense canceled what Gorbachev signed in Malta – Putin said that since the collapse of USSR, the war is not over, and Clinton insisted that the Cold War was a real war, the peace treaty has yet to be conclude.
But the negotiations are far from being about the Ukraine, with the exception of the need to prevent any provocation there which can disrupt the negotiations on the settlement of the crisis, compared with which the Caribbean missile crisis is a children’s fight in a sandbox over some trinkets.
Cool story, bro
I love the 1812 Overture. It became popular in the U.S. when Arthur Fielder had the Boston Pops perform it for the 4th of July–who can resist the cannons and bells! I’m guessing most Americans think that it has something to do with the War of 1812 (an English/American skirmish).
In reality, it was composed to commemorate the Russians stopping Napoleon’s army in Moscow. Eventually the Russians chased Napoleon back to France and the Tsar set up camp in Paris for a while and helped set up the new world order when Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo.
It was performed in its entirety at the coronation of Tsar Alexander III, and so naturally, there is a “God save the Tsar” piece.

Anyway, short of assuming the viewpoint of CFN that everybody in responsible position of power is either a drooling idiot, or hopeless kleptocrat, so far I gave the only workable hypothesis of the current reality in US Presidential race: at this point Hillary Clinton arranged a coup d’etat in Washington, managing to cease power of White House and several Departments, excluding Pentagon.
Family of President Obama is most likely taken hostage, which is not too difficult to arrange by simply switching their security detail with the Flying Monkeys.
Cool story, bro
Don’t you worry, my friend, I’ll keep ’em coming.

General Shamanov, the reincarnation of Alexey Yermolov, the Russian Imperial general of the 19th century Caucasian War
Just the sound of his name puts the Fear of God into the hearts of Islamist terrorists
Shamanov has an image of an “over-the-top” ruthless man among the other Russian military leaders, with certain insurgency-related sources calling him the “Butcher of Chechnya.” Already during the First Chechen War, the Chechen Insurgency claimed Shamanov to be the reincarnation of Alexey Yermolov, alluding to the Russian Imperial general of the 19th century Caucasian War, who was famous in his time, for his merciless policy towards the local rebel fighters and their supporters among civilians.

“Tsar Alexander II, who sent troops to NY and SF for 7 months to support Lincoln’s effort to eradicate slavery, had empathy for the serfs in Russia. He tried to reform the injustice in his country, but the Russian aristocrats didn’t want their cheap labor to disappear.” == Jen
That happened in 1863, after Alexander made serfs free in 1861.
And the whole history of American Civil war was a big geopolitical play of London (The City) plus Napoleon III of France against the North America and Russian Empire.
The idea of two Russian fleets sent to American Atlantic and Pacific shores was to prevent Great Britain and France to enter the war on behalf of the Confederates.

In October of 1940, when she was still in curls and called Lilibet within the family, Princess Elizabeth made her first national radio broadcast.
It was designed to calm the fears of Britain’s children, as London was being pounded by German bombers for fifty-seven consecutive nights.
She was fourteen. “We know, every one of us, that in the end all will be well,” she said, on the BBC’s “Children’s Hour.” Seventy-five years later, amid the increasingly chaotic aftermath of the Brexit vote, Queen Elizabeth II is trying to do it again.
“Retaining the ability to stay calm and collected can at times be hard,” she conceded, at the opening of Scotland’s Parliament, on Saturday.
“One hallmark of leadership in such a fast-moving world is allowing sufficient room for quiet thinking and contemplation, which can enable deeper, cooler consideration of how challenges and opportunities can best be addressed.”
For Elizabeth, the Brexit vote marks an almost Shakespearean turn.

All this spirit shit is such a crock. The universe, what we’ve learned of it is so awesome in the literal sense of the word, that it can’t help but inspire spirituality in any reasoned being. But then invoking magical entities? I call buullshit. Quoting so-called ancient texts of wisdom, written by superstitious people who had no idea of the cosmos at large, is an obvious sign someone is terrified of existence. Belief in bad vs. good spirits seems pretty juvenile to me. Why not believe in snake charmers and patent medicine? They’re all of a piece. And it’s already too late tonight to even get into the con game known as organized religion. Grow up and face reality: we are all gonna die and cease to exist eventually. Nothingness has its advantages.
“Nothingness has its advantages.” –beantownbill
One of the wisest things I have ever read on CFN. And scientifically valid.
But why wait for death? Enjoy our nothingness right now.
Just dial down to the level of our cells, our molecules, our atoms, and notice we are objectively, scientifically, 99.9999999999% empty space.
Dial out to the size of the universe and again we are nothing. There is no intrinsic meaning to our existence. And no need for any religion at all.
I embrace these truths… I live in awe and wonder at my completely meaningless life without the need to invent any god.
I love life in all its forms, including mine, and refuse to take life even to save my own meaningless life (i.e., no “self defense” … What for, since we are going to die anyway in the blink of an eye. Janos condemns pacifism. I celebrate pacifism.
US police have executed 558 citizens this year. A large percentage have been unarmed Black lives who matter. Police cameras curiously don’t work, they malfunction, when the police assassinate unarmed Blacks.
The cops like killing white people too. Plus, in Chicago black people are mostly killing other black people – this is a problem, do black people know black lives matter? (or is whitey to blame when one black person kills another?)
I’m not that surprised by Comey’s decision. I’m more surprised by all the gyrations on the Left and Right to make Comey’s decision look “statesman like” – despite looking really cowardly to everyone with a brain. Sure, he basically said there is no rule of law in America.
Comey basically fired the “starting gun” on anarchy in America.
(what happens next will partially be his fault)
(brace for impact)
Definitely a coward
Well, apparently, Bill’s “secret” meeting with Loretta Lynch on the tarmac of the Phoenix airport was a resounding success! (No golfing was involved, as Bill asserts. It was 115 degrees, and Bill has a heart condition–are you kidding me??). Do these people really think that we are that stupid? The only question remains: did it take a bribe, or a threat for Lynch and Comey to cave?
This is a complete aside, but has anyone ever noticed that HIllary and Bill rarely, if ever, campaign together? Do they ever appear to be a couple, or show any affection towards each other in public at all? Compare this to Bernie and Jane Sanders, who are always at each other’s side. So that begs the question, what is the arrangement of convenience that the Clinton’s have made with each other? It’s certainly not the conventional definition of husband and wife. This whole charade they put forth is nothing short of bizarre.
They don’t think, they know, as we all do, that Americans are really that stupid. We get the leaders we deserve. There is a lot of bluster about being tough and urged individualism, but in reality, all the average American wants is to be able to plop on the sofa with a french bread microwaved pizza and a white zin and tune out to the newest HBO series full of gratuitous sex and violence. Happiness for them is an AR in the safe, a few hundred in the bank and whoever in office that can keep it that way.

American warplanes were diverted from an offensive launched against the Islamic State last week by U.S.-backed rebels in Syria in order to bomb a more enticing target in Iraq, withdrawing air support at a critical moment and contributing to the failure of the rebel operation, according to U.S. officials familiar with the incident.

Comrades! Our Global Warming Scam, and subsequent mission to scare the shit out of the Proles, and commence de industrializing western countries, cutting them down to size, and transferring their remaining wealth to our 3rd world revolutionary brothers, has been unmasked! It is no use politically to keep it going any longer, and in this I site the law of diminishing returns. Consequently, at the behest of our most experienced Meteorologists, Physicists, and Climate Scientists, who have researched this matter thoroughly, it has been decided all along a warming planet was not the threat, but Global Cooling, and a new Ice Age, is. All mention of Global Warming is to be stricken from the record, and all global warming scientists and activists are to be executed forthwith, and any evidence of their existence here on earth erased.
Comrades, let us mobilize our resources to battle the scourge of Global Cooling and this impending world wide Ice Age! Help us bring about this New Utopia, this heaven on earth. The future of humanity depends on you!

It’s [cite], a very common error. Every time I am about to write cite or site I have to look it up.
Hit ‘control -F’ in search? or where?
First, you are on the CFN site and you have clicked where it tells you how many comments have been made thus far.
If you use Chrome as your browser, simultaneously press the Ctrl key and F key on your standard Qwerty keyboard. A slim empty box will open in the upper right of your monitor (at least that’s where it is on mine).
Type your name Malthuss in the box. (Note: I frequently enter the last date and time to get back to where I left off reading the comments.) On the right side of the box the system will come back with something like 1 of 12. To the right of that are up and down arrows so you can access in regular or reverse order all the comments you have made. If someone mentioned your name in their comment that will appear as one of the 12.
If you are not using Chrome but rather Internet Explorer (as I used to until a year or two ago) go to the upper left of your screen and click on the Edit button. In the drop down box select the word Find. A box will appear….. type in Malthuss, etc etc…. same as described above.
If you are not using Chrome or Internet Explorer I can’t help you but there are enough technical wizards here that someone is bound to have the answer. I would start by asking WPA or Cold N. Holefield.
Addendum:
We have been unable to locate former citizens and noted actor Leonardo DeCaprio, former US VP Al Gore, and former Billionaire Tom Steyer, now considered climate apostates & fugitives. Approach them carefully as they may be armed and dangerous. A substantial award is offered for their capture and arrest. Remember, if you see something, say something.

Comrade, the Thought Police have DeCaprio, Steyer, and former VP Gore under surveillance. As was done with those infamous traitors, Winston Smith, Julia, Jones, Aaron, and Rutherford, the Thought Police are gathering evidence to, not only confirm their guilt but, cure them into confessing that guilt voluntarily. All sch CC-deniers are cured. There is no record of any who failed to repent and be converted for the love of BB.
Continue your efforts at MiniTrue to warn the proles and Party members of CC-deniers and other thoughtcriminals. The very science books of our Omniscient Party PROVE that CC denial CAUSES Climate Change. Thoughtcriminals and CC-deniers will be rounded up.
For the goodthinkers of Airstrip 2, they are not only reassured by the rousing propaganda from MiniTrue but, inspired to find and report CC-deniers, White racism, etc.!

Emails? The Republicans are about to nominate an unstable fascist to lead the free world and people are worried about emails from years ago? Shouldn’t we be more concerned wit rising anti-semitism. Trump can lie about his Star of David on piles of cash… he is unapologetically anti-Semitic and racist. You won’t be academically asking how racism is defined when your racial group is being targeted.
“Trump must also know that white supremacists and anti-Semites have taken great delight in his tweet, as they have in other elements of his campaign. But instead of diffusing the matter, Trump has chosen to effectively say he doesn’t give a f**k about either the carefully penned letter his son-in-law wrote, or about the signals he is giving to racists and bigots.
And that, even more than the initial tweet, says something profoundly disturbing about the candidate.”
Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims ? 1.6 billion members of an entire religion ? from entering the U.S.
The Big Short is available on Netflix. Recommended viewing for all you Hilarians out there.
So it was, finally, a zero-sum game after all…
The Big Short should be required viewing for any and all Americans who have any contact at all with the “financial” system. Of course I suppose that there are plenty of simpletons out there that could care less that they (we) are being cheated, extorted, and robbed out of the fruits of our labors and there is a certain solace that is had once a man accepts his slavery, but it will never be acceptable with me. Every system devised by mankind eventually degrades into a cesspool where the scum rises to the top and the crap falls to the bottom and while there is no actual “escape from the pool itself, I have found that somewhere in the middle the water is the least foul. It is just hard to stay at the correct depth for a long time.
Watch the movie everybody, and see it more than once, it tells all.
Hank Paulson, the $700 Billion Man, is an Hilarian. He says a Trump Presidency is “unthinkable”.
Indeed, what this country needs is less thought! More action!
Fatti Maschii, Parole Femine! (I grew up in Maryland… It’s astounding that the history-police have not yet attacked the State motto as they have descended upon relics of the Confederacy).
“Watch the movie everybody, and see it more than once, it tells all.”
Yeah, maybe they will also write a book about it….
wpa_ccc: “Emails? The Republicans are about to nominate an unstable fascist to lead the free world and people are worried about emails from years ago?”
Hillary Clinton’s use of a private e-mail server to conduct business as Secretary of State was and is a serious abuse of power. There is no legitimate basis for a public official to privatize their official communications. Being charitable, she may have intended just to bypass bureaucracy that may have been genuinely onerous, but which had the very serious purpose of safeguarding both the communications themselves and the public record of them. Being less charitable, she may have been using her office to conduct business for her own private benefit. With this record, now she is the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party and is leading the unstable fascist in the polls.
So yes, people are worried about e-mails from years ago.
“With this record, now she is the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party and is leading the unstable fascist in the polls.”
Did you not want “the” before “leading”?
beantownbill said: Nothingness has its advantages.
How can you be so sure? What is Nothingness? Did you ever see the movie Pan’s Labyrinth? If nothing else, it makes you question and consider the notion of Reality.
The force that was Hitler and the Nazis lives on in the atoms and its constituent parts it interacted with. That residue, or subatomic effect if you will, doesn’t erase easily just as a hard drive doesn’t necessarily erase with the first pass.
Not too many years ago, a French “scientist” in defense of homeopathy claimed that after a substance is introduced into water and then filtered out so there is zero concentration of that substance in said water sample, the water “remembers” that the substance was once in it, and if the substance had health benefits, the water would convey those benefits to people even though it contained zero amounts of the substance. This is, of course is the basic principle of homeopathy – that imbibing something healthy that has been diluted down to a minuscule concentration could still provide those healthy benefits.
Science has thoroughly debunked homeopathy, even though homeopathic solutions still sell in health food stores. If the universe can contain shreds of my one’s memories and persona, then it would have some sort of measurable effect. Not once has this ever been measured, so your statement is wishful thinking. BTW, have any atoms
been observed that carry Nazi forces? That would have caused quite a stir.
There si a book, ‘Idiot Proof’, that has some funny sad stories.
These ‘sugar pills’ are very big in some areas of Europe.
It’s been proven, Sugar Pills work in some cases. All the patient has to do is believe it’s something else and that it will work. And like magic, it does.
Bill, there is no wishful thinking on my part. Are you asserting I’m a Nazi? You’re fucked in your head if you think that’s the case.
My point is, you are so sure, but so too are those who believe the opposite of you. The honest, objective approach is to not be so sure, otherwise, you’re just as religious as they are.
Nah, I don’t believe you’re a nazi. You were the one who brought up the subject wrt nazis and I just responded to the idea of nazi energy.
Religion, by definition has to involve the supernatural. My thinking is that I reject the supernatural as a concept, so I can’t be religious. I may be, however, a staunch rationalist, at least to the extent that anyone can be rational.
Why has no one mentioned the obvious………. the “placebo effect.”
Okay Bill, I’ll accept that. And I can empathize and relate to it. Afrerall, I’m a stanch Anthropologist. Just ask Q. Shtik, he’ll tell you.
How does rationalism deal with this?

Romanian hacker with access to Clinton emails found dead in jail cell
Christian Times Newspaper has learned that Guccifer, the Romanian hacker currently being held on charges for hacking Hillary Clinton’s personal email server, has been found in his Virginia jail cell, dead of an apparent suicide.
http://christiantimesnewspaper.com/breaking-romanian-hacker-with-access-to-clinton-emails-found-dead-in-jail-cell/
Snopes has sniffed and snuffed the story. So not only can it not possibly then be true, it really isn’t.
The Romanian hacker was found with 14 bullet wounds in the back. The warden said it was the worst case of suicide he has ever seen. 😉
So how do you see this Comey caper? As an Italianate farce, something a clownish Berlusconi would pull off? Or as something altogether darker, a Putin-esque scheme designed by a criminal clique to get one of their own off the hook?
No laws were broken. There was no crime committed. The FBI said So. So, is that the end? Oh, no, just the beginning.
Just like there were eight investigations and numerous hearings and millions of dollars spent on Benghazi, there will be numerous congressional investigations of server-gate.
After spending millions more millions of dollars in an attempt to politically damage Hillary she will emerge victorious, just as she has survived untouched by dozens of Republican witch hunts, just as Bill survived when he succeeded in not being impeached by the Republican Puritans.
ServerGate is a political persecution, because no laws were broken.
There is no stopping the Clintons. Resistance is futile. I know because I tried to resist by supporting Bernie and Jill.
The Clintons will occupy the White House again. Eight more years. Like it or not.
Best to take Q’s approach: detached anthropological observation.
“No laws were broken. There was no crime committed. The FBI said So.”
The FBI said so. That’s exactly the problem. (And Comey did not quite say that anyway. “Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information,” he said, “our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.”)
The governing statute is straightforward with regard to intent. Namely, intention has nothing to do with the crime and is not part of the law. Until now.
Glenn Greenwald weighed (waded?) in here:
https://theintercept.com/2016/07/05/washington-has-been-obsessed-with-punishing-secrecy-violations-until-hillary-clinton/
He certainly cannot be lumped in with the Vast Right Wing conspirators. And his POV is that DC secrecy is an abomination anyway.
Lawyers specializing in this field are quoted here:

The administration has in effect established a double-standard depending on the public stature of the accused. Even as it has prosecuted more than other administrations (this probably has much to do with the utter stupidity people will demonstrate with regard to their cell phone use: the sailors taking selfies within classified zones are as mindless of consequences as the petty criminals streaming YouTubes of their crimes).
There may be a constitutional issue with regard to “legislation by agency.” This power is reserved to Congress. We’ll leave that to the ConLaw specialists on the board.
It’s a deep can of worms and maybe deeper than even the Clintons can evade. Was it Lincoln who said you can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you can’t fool all the people all the time?
I think there is the possibility this time they’ve gone too far. The Alt-Media has as much reach as the corporate media if not more. The Establishment BS has been revealed as, well, BS.
Everything Hitler did was LEGAL. Same with Stalin. Neither broke any laws on the books. Kali-Ma Klinton abides by the Satanic laws that give her power. Kali’s critics were greased by professional hit men; even as far back as when she was at the Rose Law Firm. The same tactic used by famous dictators in history.
Bernie’s fecklessness did him in. He never intended to win in the beginning. He was surprised as any when it looked like he could win! Even when he finally took the race seriously, it was too late and he was held back by total cowards, especially Tad Devine. No doubt, the latter was under blackmail by Kali-Ma Klinton’s temple fiends.
As for resisting Kali-Ma Klinton, the only resistance Americans know about is constipation. To exorcise the evil of Hillary requires a thousand Robespierres!
Jill is just a bored activist who wants the excitement of being in a Presidential race. Her otherwise good message means nothing without the Establishment’s approval.
I hope that if Hillary Rodan wins the race, she outlaws the Star Spangled Banner. ZOG Amerika is too cowardly and insane to be entitled to sing it, let alone stanzas 2-4.
here’s Sterling’s arrest history.[Sterling shooting: Protests continue as FBI takes over investigation, WTVM.com, July 7, 2016]:
Sterling’s mother told the media that Sterling had a prior history with police including felony arrests.
Court records show his arrest history includes:
9/09/96: Aggravated battery
10/31/97: Second-degree battery
1/06/98: Simple battery
5/04/00: Public intimidation
9/20/00: Carnal knowledge of a juvenile
9/04/01: Domestic violence
5/24/05: Burglary of an inhabited dwelling place
7/11/05: Receiving stolen things
9/12/05: Burglary of inhabited dwelling place
3/17/06: Simple criminal damage to property, simple robbery, simple theft, drug possession, misrepresentation during booking, simple battery, aggravated battery
4/12/06: Aggravated battery, simple criminal damage to property, disturbing the peace, unauthorized entry
4/04/08: Domestic abuse battery
6/03/09: Resisting an officer, drug possession, receiving stolen things, possession of stolen firearm, illegal carrying of a weapon with CDs, sound reproduct without consent
10/12/09: Illegal carrying of weapon, marijuana possession
8/13/15: Failure to register as a sex offender
4/08/16: Failure to register as a sex offender
6/14/16: Ecstasy and marijuana possession
So, his murderers will not be prosecuted because he has a history?
A history?
That’s quite a history!
Funny none of this was mentioned on CNN, BBC, MSNBC, CBS, or ABC.
He was on his way to a Boy Scout Meeting, where they were mobilizing to help old ladies to cross the street.
brh
He was a criminal long bf that.
His ‘juvie’ record is hidden.
So, are you thinking anyone with a rap sheet can be murdered with impunity?
No, that would be going too far.
They can be murdered but NOT with impunity.
So Malthuss, there are two take-aways from your post:
1. Nobody’s perfect
2. He’s been clean (no arrests) for the last 23 straight days
23 days–hahahahahah.
left behind 5? acknowledged keeds. = leech.
I doubt he ever supported his keeds.
That is quite a record, I wonder where this poor soul was from 1998-01, 2001-05, and 2009-15, I guarantee he was not working a job except maybe stamping license plates. “Some men you just can’t reach”.

So, does it?
Cool story, bro
Did Bill & Hillary play this at their wedding? I bet they did. It’s the perfect song to celebrate their love for one another and their love for all of us.

Probably the same peeps (over at your blog) who want to massacre your wife and kids.
Apparently driving while black with a burned out tail light is grounds for extrajudicial execution by police in this country. Philando Castile was fatally shot by police during a traffic stop in Falcon Heights, Minnesota on July 6, 2106. Mr. Castile had his girlfriend and her daughter in the vehicle with him and this act of violence was done in front of them.
So the next time you are driving black and a police officer stops you and asks for ID, what should you do, God knows? Obviously complying with the officers request will get you shot!
The USA is fast becoming a fascist Orwellian police state of the worst kind.

=============
Really? I was unaware. NOT!!
typo shmypo
Typo is the current world’s excuse for carelessness (I wonder what Hillary’s excuse is.)
Ten years ago I corresponded by email with this gentleman:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Edward_Peters
whose audio book, Jerusalem: The Contested City, I had just borrowed from my local library and listened to.
Several times in the recording my less-than-perfect ears (I am somewhat hearing-impaired) told me that Dr. Peters was mispronouncing two words: sepulcher as sep luh ker and status as stotus. (Note: not only is this sort of thing (this attention to detail) a natural obsession of mine, perhaps genetic, (I seem to have picked it up from my mother as David Foster Wallace did from his mother) but I am a trained auditor with a masters degree and in the era which my career spanned the word typo didn’t cut it as an excuse.)
After giving the good Doctor’s audio book the praise that it deserved I mentioned the mispronunciations and suggested that in future recordings he might want to change those pronunciations, “or not.” In the last sentence of my email I said “Please pardon my Pedantry.”
A reply arrived within the hour and began “Hey Q., no problem, I’m a professor and pedantry is my middle name.”
He went on to tell me about his autobiography (published in 1982) titled “Ours: The Making and Unmaking of a Jesuit” which contained only two footnotes. The one on page 65 concerned the pronunciation of status as stotus.
Here, obviously, was a kindred spirit.
Oh baloney! Please, I did not just fall from the turnip truck. You spin this in to some self-aggrandizing one man crusade to preserve the integrity of the written language. Well, how noble indeed! You are too small, no, too petty minded, to admit the difference between obvious typos and and the more grievous mistakes involving incorrect syntax, or grammar, or non sequiturs and the like. The wise man can see the forest for the trees, the innocent genius of a child, the point of the unlettered man. Get over yourself… you’re nothing.
Q.,
I nominate a member of your immediate family to be the next victim of a psycho cop’s twitchy trigger-finger. (You don’t get to pick which one, sorry.)
Happy days!
In keeping with the militarization of the police, their training has also followed the military’s lead. Just go home, just survive is the ethos. Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6. Training has developed condition responses where mention or presence of a gun results in a muscle-memory response of weapon draw and shot at lost sight of hands. “Hands kill” is the training du jour. No waiting for weapon or threat, just shoot and survive. He doesn’t even know how to act after the murder. Just let him bleed out, and why not, he wasn’t trained past surviving at all costs.
WHITE LIVES MATTER
A white man in Louisiana — the same state where black man Alton Sterling was fatally shot by cops — went on a shooting rampage and was still taken into custody without harm.
Derrick Daniel Thomas, 32, allegedly shot at a father and his 5-year-old son. He managed to shoot out the windshield and rear window of the pickup truck the two were sitting in, NOLA.com reported.
When New Orleans police finally caught up to the shooter and ordered he drop his gun, Thomas allegedly yelled: “No, you drop your (expletive) gun!”
Thomas was eventually taken into custody after police set up a perimeter. No one died.
fffpffttttttttttttttttttttffffffffffffffffffttttttt
The July Force Majeure
Not everything is so smooth with the full and unconditional victory of Hillary. Too much coincidence and the overarching super-strange events, even sensations, but nobody is paying attention to:
1. Brexit suddenly almost coincides with the equally sudden recognition by the Germany of genocide of the Armenians, that inspired Hitler’s holocaust, and President Erdogan wrote a letter to Putin, in which he apologized for shooting down of a Russian bomber, and Putin, who just recently did no want even to consider Erdogan apologies and implicitly and pointedly did not answer his calls, suddenly calls Erdogan to accept his apology in response to attempts of Erdogan close circles to disavow that apology and was discussing something with him for 40 minutes.
2. The next day, in a Turkish airport, which is the main aero-hub between Europe and Asia, supposedly the best friend of Erdogan ISIS punishes the “traitor of the caliphate,” with a large-scale terrorist attack, which in addition to the Russian sanctions could deprive Turkey of a significant part of its budget. As a result, Russia and Turkey really become allies who really conduct joint military actions against ISIS in Syria and Iraq, and the Russians tourists once again flock to Turkish beaches even without their AK-47s.
3. Republican part of the Commission of inquiry of the incident in Benghazi publishes a 400 page report on the results of the investigation, and the democratic part of the Commission, which published its report several days before, immediately begins screaming that the head of the commission Gowdy, which has long been reproaching them for sabotaging the investigation, had hidden from them and from the congress more juicy facts and intends to use them later, when (if) the power will switch again.
4. Putin has ceased to appear in public. He was last seen on July 1 in Finland. Moreover, he allegedly canceled a few pre-planned meetings and visits inside the country, which means either illness or emergency situation.
5. The International Court of Justice in The Hague is now considering a case of a few very small islands in the South China Sea, which China has made into tourism centers, capable of in a few hours to become unsinkable aircraft carriers. But oh and ah, the islands are claimed by the Philippines, Vietnam and Taiwan, and China has already made quite clear that it does not believe in the impartiality of the court and is not going to comply with its decisions. Instead, it is quite clearly demonstrated their technical ability to sink US aircraft carrier groups that are hanging around in the area.
6. On the same day, US Attorney General Loretta Lynch, on whose desk then had to go the FBI investigation of the activities of Hillary Clinton, on the basis of which Loretta Lynch had to make a decision on the indictment of Hillary and removing her from the elections met at the airport with Bill Clinton. As a result, Loretta Lynch forced to speak on television, explaining that she accidentally met Bill Clinton in airport, and then it turns out that he arrived at the airport in a private jet and a few hours delayed flight so that this “chance encounter” would have taken place. This is a classic case of conflict of interest and US Attorney General when called to explain says that she will never to do it again, and promises to stamp the recommendations of the director of the FBI.
7. At that time, Taiwan “accidentally” fires a missile in the direction of China and into the Chinese trawler, killing several sailors, while the Turkish airport still wet with blood after the attack, and in Moscow opposition to American diplomats goes into a physical mode when some spy with diplomatic passport is trying to enter the US Embassy in Moscow and being badly beaten.
8. On the Independence Day during the concert on July 4 is usually performed overture to the opera by Tchaikovsky, in which the full version of Opera includes a performance of the choir “God Save the Tsar”, but this choral piece was never performed until 2015. And in 2015 it was performed on the personal order of President Obama, and in Russian that I interpreted as a sign to President Putin, confirming the authority of the negotiators, leading on his behalf secret talks in Moscow.
But in the 2016 choral part of “God Save the Tsar” performed after the coup of Hillary Clinton and her endorsement by President Obama and I think Putin knows this better than me, and in this situation, when immediately after the notorious endorsement there was a sharp deterioration in the rhetoric of the US representatives toward Russia, and the statements of politicians at the NATO summit in Warsaw are on the level of casus belli, Obama’s ability to ensure the implementation of any agreements is dubious which devalues any of his signs, especially secret.
Nevertheless, the next day Vladimir Putin considered it necessary to call him, and this is his first appearance on the international scene since the first of July.
9. The FBI Director Comey delivers a speech, the first part of which is a proof of almost all, including serious, allegations against Hillary Clinton in connection with her private server for state secret correspondence (one of which is to gain access to sensitive data by hacker Guccifer), then he refuses to put forward against her any charges on the grounds that “the poor girl did it all by chance”.
Guccifer is killed in prison.
10. Vladimir Putin signs a law, which without his signature looks like a writings of a raving maniac, and with his signature looks like a martial law in Russia. What is missing is the right to carry it out on the spot without trial, in accordance with the operational situation.
11. In Moscow arrives Trump advisor Carter Page.
That’s quite a conspiracy theory Finc. It just doesn’t have enough elements however. Check out the recent Boston Globe story on Igor Stravinsky’s plot to change the arrangement of the “Star Spangled Banner” back in the 1940’s.
He was conducting the Boston Symphony at the time and during war time, pretty much every occasion required that the national anthem be sung.
Stravinsky found the anthem to be un-singable and wanted to try a version that would be easier to sing for the common man. The Associated Press had a hissy fit and suggested that the composer be arrested. He backed down and conducted the original version.
“That’s quite a conspiracy theory Finc”
Which part? regarding the martial law in Russia?
I’m having problems with the “God Save the Tsar” element.
So? The the choral piece was never performed until 2015, was performed in July 2015 in Russian and once again couple of days ago – that’s a fact for million of viewers to testify to, not a theory.
I just trying to find a logical hypothesis that all known facts would fit under. You’re welcome to give your version and let’s peer-review.
Finca, is it possible that Russia is greatly compromised by 25 years worth of Western encroachment and that Putin is doing what any good leader would do to mitigate sabotage in time of war?
You betcha! Why do you think Russian troops backed all the way to Moscow in 1941? Sabotage by the top Red Army Generals!
That is exactly what the NATO is counting on – they can’t beat Russia in a fair fight, only sabotage and treason!
Putin’s strength is in 85% support of the Russian people, who would welcome the Martial law for survival of the Nation.
SMERSH
SMERSH – acronym of “death to spies” – was an umbrella organisation for three independent counter-intelligence agencies in the Red Army formed in late 1942 or even earlier, but officially announced only on 14 April 1943. The name SMERSH was coined by Joseph Stalin. The main reason for its creation was to subvert the attempts by German forces to infiltrate the Red Army on the Eastern Front.

Too bad Muammar Gaddafi didn’t have an organization to detect and get rid of CIA and MI6 operatives in Tripoli.
Tony Blair and GW Bush persuaded Gaddafi to drop his guard, give up his nuclear weapons program, allow U.S. advisers, and “open” up the Libyan economy to Western banking practices. To bring Libya back into the civilized world, dontcha know?
Bush and Blair wasted no time infiltrating Gaddafi’s government and armed forces with quislings and CIA-MI6 operatives. As we all saw in real time, our CIA operatives in the armed forces interfered with Libya’s ability to quell a color revolution out of Benghazi. Eventually, when the ZOG-E.U. backed “rebels” marched north to Tripoli, the city’s defenses stood down. Our quisling was in charge of the defense of Tripoli and we told him to stand his forces down.
Like Saddam Hussein’s corrupt military brass, he was easily bribed to betray the Leader who brought Libya out of the Stone Ages and into a modern world of freedom for women and benefits that Americans can only dream about.
When Gaddafi needed his state security to defend the regime, he discovered it was infested with quislings and spies. I hope Russia takes that bitter lesson to heart and NEVER NEVER NEVER trusts Washington for anything!

Never go to the beach without your AK47, even though it does not have the range or the firepower of RPGs. It just gives the illusion of safety.
Happy Independence day. What a fucking joke that has become. Where to start. Last I saw, the CBC (Clinton body count) went up another notch. Supposedly the hacker known as Gucifer that proved that DNC talked about Bitchlary Clinton as the presumptive nominee a year before that first primary and that virtual tie BS in Iowa was found hanged in his jail cell.
This comes after the FBI declines to prosecute the vile cunt. I don’t suppose their sudden rush to let the despicable pig off the hook coincides with the founder of WikiLeaks continued threats to release the vile pig’s e-mail, which Assange said would certainly result in the bitch being indicted? Where the fuck are those e-mails??!! We have been waiting and waiting and waiting to see them, and now the FBI was obviously coerced into letting this piece of shit off the hook.
Recall Martha Stewart went to prison for lying to the FBI and her actions or decisions didn’t result in anyone’s death. Now yet another scandal and this vile, big mouthed, pathological liar gets a get out of jail free card. I would have been happy to see the bitch just drop out of the race and cede to the real winner, Bernie Sanders.
So what can we conclude after this latest, ugly series of events that have unfolded? (Our leaders are corrupt, voting is a joke, the elections are rigged, the system is rigged, we have been sold out, democracy has been hijacked, and the democratic party are a bunch of sell outs, assholes no different than the repugs)
Add to this depressing realization that the 1%, the neocons, the powers that be, intended for this vile bitch to be at the helm in 2016 no matter what because the SOBs know full well the dollar will collapse before or during her regime and when oil exporting nations stop taking dollars for their exports, they can count on this psychotic pig to use violence and the military to intervene and invade and outright steal other nation’s oil when the US gets locked out of the international oil trade. They selected this douche bag well in advance because they know they can count on her to use what Hubbert predicted in his third prediction (social chaos and some half assed military solution) as the bitch supported their other oil wars (Iraq, Libya, Syria, and threatening to nuke Iran). As such, Bernie and Trump never stood a chance. The Pentagon and the secret government decided for us without our consent that the stakes were too high and thus they could not be bothered with such annoying nuisances as freedom, democracy, voting, elections because there is too much at stake, so they took matters into their own hands and could not be bothered with the consent of the people they are supposed to represent.
Like when Saddam grew weary of sanctions being imposed on his country for the WMD he never had and retaliated by dumping the dollar and trading Iraqi oil in euros, the powers that be selected Bush because they knew they could count on him to bring in the military, now than can count on this evil cunt to use violence and killing to try to maintain US hegemony through the military. If not direct US intervention, the neocons like to use their mercenary army,NATO, as a cover to do their dirty work. That is why this “Brexit” will never happen, because it may break up the EU which according to Paul Craig Roberts, was set up by the CIA to control Europe and continue NATO, which should have ended when the former USSR collapsed.
That would also explain why these sporting events are turning into patriotic orgies, complete with troops in uniform, wounded vets, jet fly overs, all the flag waving. They are pep rallies to manufacture consent for their warfare solution to being cut off from the 2/3 of energy they need to import, oil being the life’s blood of industrialized society. Putin has flat out stated that if Bitchlary is selected, there will be war. That would put us on the fast track for WWIII and possible nuclear annihilation, something I am sure few sane people would consent to, yet decisions are being made that are literally life threatening and without our consent.
“…decisions are being made that are literally life threatening and without our consent.”
So, we have no control? That reminds me of the old serenity prayer. Only worry about the things you have some control over.
Bravo! Thanks for taking the time to show the grimness of what Hillary Rodan, a.k.a. Kali Ma Klinton, represents. She is just the boil on the surface that hides a massive festering cancer underneath.
Please inform Finca that Putin can no longer play by the civilized rules of geopolitics that he has known in the past. The magnificence of FM Lavrov means nothing to ZOG-NATO.. Moscow’s appeasement by calling the U.S. its “partner” only goads Washington’s malicious impulses.
Some commentaries assert that, unlike centuries ago when the peasants had a castle to march to, the Global ZOG Matrix is everywhere and cannot be harmed. That is NOT true. it can be harmed by preventing the power and profits from flowing to their intended recipients. The Billionaire Class.
There are only about 1000 true sovereigns in the World (Jewish, Zionist, and Dönmeh Jew billionaires) for whom the ZOG Matrix exists and serves. All Putin has to do is kill the core of the Matrix. The Billionaires. The ZOG Matrix hangs from them like a chandelier hangs from a keystone in an archway. The chain links that go down to the chandelier are the visible Super Rich, their Trustees, appointed chieftains in government and global industry, and elected federal officials of the nation-states. The blocks that make up the archway are the permanent powers i.e. banking families, global central banks, and indispensable corporations that transcend national governments. Destroy the keystone (billionaires or Top 0.5%) and it all crashes down.
Only Russia can field an assassination team to achieve that. Whether they have the WILL to do so remains to be seen. If not for the White populations of the East then, for the survival of Russia. Kill the Billionaires or Billions will be killed. It’s just that simple.
Since you are so erudite, enlighten me. Name the “about 1000” Jewish Billionaires who rule the world. Wait! I’ll give you a break. Name only 100 of the “about 1000”. And after you do, quote me the sources that can prove these 100 are in fact billionaires, are Jewish, and by what criteria they run the world. Also, name me the members of the Zionist government – inquiring minds want to know. Oh, I’m sorry, you wouldn’t read the National Enquirer – it’s too intellectual for you. You are certainly a worthless piece of shit who’s so low you can crawl under a penny and kiss Lincoln’s ass.
Sorry, everybody, I can’t let this pass anymore.
YO, Bill. “Kiss Lincoln’s ass, etc”. I have not heard that one before and believe me I have heard them all at the Firehouse. I laughed out loud. Thanks for an uplift!
RT, you’re welcome.
” You are certainly a worthless piece of shit who’s so low you can crawl under a penny and kiss Lincoln’s ass.”
C’mon Bill, a little decorum?
I’ll meet you halfway bean. Billionaires of any type are very secretive. But, here are three appetizers for you. Hopefully, the credentials meet your requirements.

John Ash, UN former President, dead. [hours before he was to testify?].
Ascendance of the feminine continues as Britain’s next PM will be a woman.
Hardly news in Britain where they’ve had Queens for hundreds of years.
Queens are not elected. Prime Ministers are.
Wpac,
You missed the reference….
What does this Wiccan feminism of yours have to offer? Hopefully, you’ll have something more substantive than, “It’s our turn!”
I want women to take over the parliaments and legislatures of the world. By law any elected body should have 52% women.
If women had been respected in the past, humanity would not have been in such a mess as it is today – because women are half of humanity. Half of humanity has remained undignified, uneducated, deprived of all freedom, all movement. We have hampered, handicapped ourselves. We have destroyed half of ourselves, and if we are in misery then who is to be blamed?
Oh, hogwash and balderdash!
In other words, wpa, all you said was what I predicted. “IT’S OUR TURN!”
Women like you are just carriers for an alien ideology, like politicized Wiccanism and militant feminism. “My Turn!” also includes demands based on statistical representation.
Sometimes, the majority isn’t fit to rule. South Africa is proof of that and ZOG Amerika is rapidly approaching that reality. Woe unto the nation where the masses aren’t fit to rule and the elites are psychopaths. The masses can’t overthrow the Establishment and the Establishment is destroying the host it feeds upon.
I would contend that our woes and angst are caused precisely because venerable tradition was overthrown. Including walls and ceilings put up by enlightened ancestors who knew of the evils that had to be contained.
Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6. – Frankiti
===========
Good line. Did you make it up or read it somewhere?
“Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6”
Q,
That comment is commonly heard around law enforcement personnel…I first heard it back in the ’60’s.
Ed’s not getting it.

Carslon’s act fits squarely within the ethos of a news network that thinks first and foremost about the attractiveness and sex appeal of its on-air female talent. The roving camera high up above Megyn Kelly’s (not coincidentally glass) desk, for instance, is known as a “leg cam.” Fox News Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes once reportedly called a host on air and demanded, “Move that damn laptop, I can’t see her legs!” Carlson has said she wasn’t allowed to wear pants on “Fox and Friends.”
So now we have black snipers killing police in Dallas because white police killed unarmed blacks in Minnesota and Baton Rouge.
Ok, well, I think I am pretty safe down here in Melbourne Australia. We killed of most of our black natives a century ago and we continue to poison the rest with alcohol. (Unless they are good at sport of course)
So let me know how that race war works out for you guys.
you have plenty of non Whites there. Plenty of trouble.
Breaking News –4 dead in Dallas—- and
(INTELLIHUB) Black Lives Matter leader Deray McKesson had two of his email accounts hacked last Friday, along with his Twitter, according to reports.
Reports indicate that the perpetrators successfully hacked into several of McKesson’s accounts after posing as McKesson to a Verizon Wireless Tech Support operator in order to gain access and post a provocative Tweet which endorsed Donald J. Trump for the Presidential bid.
However, the mainline press made no mention of the real purpose for the hack, which was to obtain secret information about a George Soros and Obama Administration sponsored plot, an elaborate operation dubbed the “Summer of Chaos,” which is aimed at shutting down both the Democratic National Convention and the Republican National Convention in order to trigger martial law nationwide, keeping President Barack H. Obama in the White House beyond his allotted two terms under National Security Presidential Directives.
Shockingly, in a private message purportedly obtained and released by the hackers, Samuel Sinyangwe, a Black Lives Matter activist, said that law enforcement officials “will not be ready for the type of crowds” that the group will be bringing which are designed to shutdown the convention and create “disruptions nationwide.”
The group plans to bring more than 10,000 people to create chaos July 18-21 in both Philadelphia and Cleveland, according to the leaked PMs.
Yeah, should be a lot of disruption, but wouldn’t Clinton be good enough for Obama and Soros? Maybe better than Obama?
How petty, you say, to worry about language on a day like this. It’s understandable for anyone to feel that way, but as we witness the breakdown of society, we also witness language itself–the very foundation of rational thought–breaking down.
=============================
Malthus: . . . which are designed to shutdown [shut down] the convention
Shutdown is a noun or an adjective. The shutdown [noun] of public transit caused massive disruption. The system is in shutdown [adjective] mode.
Shut down is a verb followed by an adverb.
===========================
Otherwise, an interesting and provocative post, Malthus.
I just noticed that Malthus used “shutting down” correctly elsewhere in his post, which means that “shutdown” must have been a mere typo.
Sorry, Malthus. You are exonerated from contributing to the breakdown of the English language.
Sorry, Malthus. You are exonerated from contributing to the breakdown of the English language. – sprawl
==========
You are too kind, sprawl. The correct usage was undoubtedly a quote from a source but without Malthuss having signaled attribution with quotation marks. Then again the incorrect use of ‘shutdown’ might have come from a source who couldn’t care less either.
And BTW, Malthuss wrote the following: “The group plans to bring more than 10,000 people to create chaos July 18-21 in both Philadelphia and Cleveland, according to the leaked PMs.”
If 10,000 protesters show up in Philly between July 18-21 they are going to be there between 4 and 7 days too early. But hey, who gives a shit about details??
SBPDL is the source. Anonymous post.
I was going to mention this very point about shutdown but I figured what’s the use, who but you and me gives a shit?
Or is it you and I?
The history of US intervention in Libya indicates Clinton’s fundamental failure to stick to agreements and a beastly bloodlust, which is very inappropriate for the head of the nuclear power.
Moscow Clinton’s fans from political circles are fond of saying that if elected, Trump will have to be negotiated with while “holding a gun on the table.” This may be so, but the problem is that with Clinton to “hold a gun on the table” is useless. To negotiate about something with her and make her comply with the agreement, the same gun will have to cram down her throat, and not only hers but numerous pathological Russophobes that make up her entourage.

Watched it unfold all evening, and heard the usual, tired, lame discourse. “Leadership matters”. “Words matter”. “We have to come together”. “We have to bridge the divide”.
But let’s continue to use the big, muscular boons to make millions, and make much more for the NFL, NBA, and MLB owners. Let them shoot themselves now and then and, in between, display their pugilistic skills on their female companions.
To show that we really are all equal, let us affirmatively move some blacks forward, and then say “see, they’re just like us”!
But let the poor slobs in the inner cities kill each other daily, gangbanging for drug territory, rotting away without hope, dreaming now and then, through clouds of crack, about LeBron James.
They just don’t get it! The social engineering does not work! Separate and equal or separate and unequal, either way!
And now, some dipshit rapper, with the underwear-trousers on your ass thing, will delight his fan base by grabbing his crotch and shouting, “we ain’t fryin’ ’em like bacon, we’re smokin’ ’em with ARs and there’s more in the makin!'”
Isis influenced? What I said stands. Still no description of the perps.
Perpetrators: Yzlamix or Negroes (maybe combined) says the Necromancer.
This vile massacre of the police has all the hallmarks of a big conspiracy; possibly even a false flag op.
A few blocks away from Dealey Plaza (yes, THAT place) just adds to the sinister shadow being cast.
The fuze for the U.S.A. summer of “fun” (pandemonium) has officially been kicked off.
God help us.
“God help us” –pequiste
Have you read the Old Testament? We don’t need that kind of “help”
Depends whose side you are on.
I know, I know wpa-ccc, that whatever gods exist in your pantheon are with you.
“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” Psalm 23:4
God is my Citadel.
I will fear no evil, for you are with me; – peq
===========
I think the old more flowery language — “for thou art with me” — carried a lot more gravitas. The Bible is being dumbed-down.
What is a rod?
Why are a rod and a staff such a comfort?
Are we to assume that God is going to beat the piss out of any attackers with them?
“He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”…He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you…For he will command his angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways…“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him…” Psalm 91:1-16
The kind of help that money can’t buy wpa-ccc.
This summer is shaping up just like I thought it would, one bloody crisis after another.
I don’t think anybody here has even mentioned those bombs going off daily in and around Baghdad, and more strikingly, inside Saudi Arabia.
That NATO meeting Obama is at in Poland right now has to be making Putin a little nervous, which is not a good thing.
Blacks shot resisting arrest, massive violence threatened at the conventions (mentioned above), 11 cops shot in Dallas (why no pics of the shooters?) phew, I’ll be at the river, a line in the water, under a shade tree, drinking a cold beer from the cooler.
brh
Marlin, we are truly in our summer of discontent.
” (why no pics of the shooters?)”
You’ll find them, in color, on the BBC America website home page this date. The suspect(s) stated they wanted to kill whites, and especially police officers. By process of elimination, you can figure that they were neither white nor sworn police. Is there anyone on this site that would want to kill blacks wantonly? I think not. But there is also on the BBC a 2 minute interview with a very inarticulate black man who stated that many of the people attending the demonstration openly justified the killing of the white officers…thought it a good idea. This mindset I first observed in 1968, and, as you might expect, and should understand, little has changed in the last half decade in the blacks’ enmity and disapprobation towards white people.
“half decade”
Half century, of course.
As our host has proclaimed, anything goes, and
NOTHING MATTERS!
Test
It looks like my most recent blog post is right on the mark. Everyone’s scrambling to make sense of the Helter Skelter, but the archaic Mental Models you’re using increasingly have no relevance. Consequently, your vain attempts to make sense of it all make no sense at all. Let’s put it this way — you haven’t seen anything yet and before long, you’ll be completely clueless. The Complexity is reaching Terminal Velocity. The boundaries of Reality as you knew it are about to be breached, but one thing will always be there, unwavering, like the anchor of The Edmund Fitzgerald — Q. Shtik’s Pedantry and complete lack of humility. From that, there is no escape.
Except for the Q part, I totally agree with you. Nice comment.
I threw the Q part in there to lighten the load. Thanks. Manson, as metaphor, is having a Field Day. Apparently, he’s not far enough “down in the hole.”
You Gotta Keep The Devil Way Down IN The Hole
Sorry, I forgot the music to accompany that last comment. Audio to accentuate the visual. Feel The Love — it’s as ubiquitous as the polluted air we breath.
Drop That Wet Noodle, Motherfucker, Or I’ll Blow Your Fucking Brains Out.
I know I will catch hell for concerning myself with the irrelevant amidst the relevant but seriously, how can I help myself?
We all know by now about the latest two black guys shot and killed by police and then the sniper revenge killings of 4 cops and the wounding of 8 others……. the numbers have no doubt changed since I read about this last night…… I’m not up to speed yet this morning.
This article, already revised since I read it last night (link below), appeared on the web and I am going to select a specific paragraph to show you so that I can discuss typos, poor grammar and their effect on understanding.
5 officers dead in Dallas shootout, sniper suspect dead
Black people were shot at 2.5 times the rate of white people, according to the Post’s tally, which also found that less than 10 percent of those killed by police were unarmed, and one-quarter were mentally ill.
Now, I ask you to interpret for me several things in this extremely poorly written paragraph:
1. Were (or are) Black people SHOT way more frequently than white people?
2. Were (or are) Black people shot AT way more frequently than white people?
3. Does the figure “2.5 times the rate of white people” mean that for every 2 white people shot (or shot AT) there were (or are) 5 Black people shot (or shot AT)? In coming up with this 2.5 figure how were the White (63.7%) and Black (12.2%) population percentages in the US taken into account?
4. A source identified as the Post “also found that less than 10 percent of those killed by police were unarmed.” Does this mean Blacks killed by police, Whites killed by police, or both? Based on the pro-Black, anti-White tone of the article I am going to assume that the author is saying that less than 10 percent of Blacks killed by the police were unarmed. Have you got that……….UN-armed. That would mean that more than 90% WERE armed. Does anyone here other than Janos and Malthuss believe that more than 90% of Blacks killed by the police have been armed?
5. The Post’s tally also says that “one-quarter were mentally ill.” Again, we wonder if this means Blacks, Whites or both. And again, I will assume they are talking about Blacks. So, what is the implication to be drawn from this mental illness percentage? ……that the cops, when faced with a gun toting Black should take into account the fact that 1 in 4 Blacks who have previously been killed by police in arrest situations have turned out to have been crazy and it is not fair to shoot armed crazy people. The cops should inquire of the Black in question “before we proceed with attempting to arrest you can you kindly let us know if competent medical authorities consider you to be mentally ill?
Is anyone here getting my point about the importance of accuracy in writing?
As you probably know I believe clear, concise writing is very important. I don’t, however, call people out on their poor writing unless it is so egregious that I cannot understand what they are trying to say. Why? Because learning to write clearly is particularly difficult if one is an adult who has always written poorly. By commenting (criticizing) on a poster’s writing errors, you only get those people mad at you, as defensiveness kicks in. And most importantly, You won’t get them to write better. That makes it a lose-lose situation. Instead, I’d blame our so-called educational system, which does not include clear and rational thinking in their curricula.
The last thing Q. Shtik would ever want is for someone to get mad at him. He lives to please people.
Your sarcasm is really funny.
Bean, I cannot and I must not abandon virtually the entire adult population of the US (and perhaps the world) to the notion that it is OK to communicate so poorly……… to assume that an old dog cannot (or refuses) be taught new tricks……. that they are all so far gone (poorly educated and ill-informed) that they simply DO NOT GIVE A SHIT……. however, if my brother-in-law is any sort of example of what you describe, you are absolutely right.
to be taught
Words can be used to obfuscate not communicate. St Francis said preach the Word of God – and sometimes use words. In other words, there are other ways to communicate besides words. And often those best with words do not use their skill for the benefit of all.
In light of the sanctimony, this bears repeating:
Oh baloney! Please, I did not just fall from the turnip truck. You spin this in to some self-aggrandizing one man crusade to preserve the integrity of the written language. Well, how noble indeed! You are too small, no, too petty minded, to admit the difference between obvious typos and and the more grievous mistakes involving incorrect syntax, or grammar, or non sequiturs and the like. The wise man can see the forest for the trees, the innocent genius of a child, the point of the unlettered man. Get over yourself… you’re nothing.
Blacks aren’t being targeted but they do interact with the police per capita far more than Whites. In other words, they commit crime at a higher rate. Add to that extremely slanted reporting and voila, a lot of poorly informed people take the BLM movement seriously. Hopefully this tragedy will change their minds.
http://www.infowars.com/video-the-truth-about-the-dallas-sniper-attack/
Whites executed by the Police don’t get national coverage.
Maybe, police interact with them more? Perhaps police are preying on them more? As it is, the police mostly prey on poor people. They are easy targets. It’s too difficult picking on the wealthy and powerful, they are influential, have good attorneys on retainer, are politically connected, and so on. They get off for crimes of an order of magnitude exponentially greater than some lifelong loser selling individual cigarettes or, driving with a busted tail light. It’s always about extracting money from those least able to hang on to it, to exert power over those least able to defend against it, to exert influence and repress those you can keep down, keep indebted. But not for Goeebels Skorzeny,, it’s always about the browns and the jooz…
You’re asserting that their crime rate is the same as Whites? And not seven to twelve TIMES the White rate, depending on the crime?
I think you know differently. You may not be the sharpest knife in the draw, but you’re not that dull – so don’t act like you are.
I am pro white police and pro Black Lives Matter.
Racist America will insist that the horrid actions of one shooter is reflective of an entire race, or in this case, a movement that aims to protect an entire race.
But the only thing that this tragedy in Dallas proves, once again, is that one angry person with easy access to guns can incite horror.
Mass shootings in this country are overwhelmingly committed by white men, and yet, have you ever heard someone blame the entire white race for one white person’s crimes?
Well,
The BBC this AM reported that a cornered, armed suspect, in a tense standoff with Dallas Police, was killed by an explosive device that was delivered by a robot. The news article did not elaborate whether the robot was crawling or flying.
I have never before seen nor heard of this methodology used by a civilian agency in the US.
Maybe that’s where it’s all headed. No need for human cops anymore when you can just blow everyone away by remote control with robots. The former cops can open up nail salons or sell real estate in the service economy. Imagine Mark Furman filing & polishing some Mexican’s nails after OJ’s released and is elected Governor of Caleepornia. Don’t laugh — it’s coming — and so much more. I can’t wait. It’s going to be such fun.
The former cops can open up nail salons – Cold

“C’mon Bill, a little decorum?” – EF
I hear ya, but when dealing with trash, sometimes decorum misses the emotional mark.
You have to try Bill – the future of the Republic depends upon rational discussion of sensitive issues – like the probability that Sonia Sotormayor is a crypto or secret Jew. If so, that makes the Supreme Court half Jewish. At a mere 3% of the population, that is a wild over representation. And they actually want to add another Jew on to this!
It’s not right, Bill.

JiminFlorida said: “Kill the Billionaires or Billions will be killed. It’s just that simple.”
Just a point of clarification: kill the white Christian billionaires, too, or just the Jewish billionaires? Should the women billionaires be killed, too? I am confused about whether this is a religious jihad against certain billionaires, or a racial jihad, or a gender jihad, or a class jihad, though different voices on CFN think killing all of them would solve some kind of problem. Kill Jesus and then he’ll never be heard of again!
How is billionaire status to be certified?
Are you sure killing billionaires is going to work? Will we next be asked to kill the millionaires? Do you know where your nearest mental health clinic is located? Do you need a ride?
wpa, If I included all the caveats and conditionalities that would distinguish incorrigible billionaires vs those who would repent and return their ill-gotten gain, my comment would be verbose and unreadable.
If you understood how the world works, especially the U.S-NATO imperial structure, everything exists to serve the interests of the billionaires. Reaganomics and Thatcherism were hatched to wrest nation-states away from the masses and hand over the wealth and control to the Top 1%. You obviously weren’t around when the sales pitch was being made in 1980.
In a nutshell, Reaganomics (and Thatcherism) asserted that the Super Rich are rich because they are better managers and better people in general. The Super Rich would be better at managing the world’s wealth instead of nation-states that guard the well-being of their respective populations. All of the Welfare State benefits that protected domestic Labor markets and domestic businesses represented untapped wealth to be commodified, liquidated, relocated to take advantage of arbitrage, and leveraged to support an explosion of usury-backed currency. Vulnerable interdependent domestic markets are easily blackmailed and shaken down. Who would engineer such a thing but the billionaires and their loyal Toadies like Hillary Rodan and Dick Cheney?
Billionaires are the political and financial equivalent of black holes. The gravity wells of money and power around them grow more powerful as they suck in more of the world’s wealth. The economic rents they live off of require exponentially greater stolen wealth, JUST to finance the usury. At some point, we’ll have global poverty with a tiny percentage of Super Billionaires. The forces in predatory capitalism make it inevitable.
Question WPA, what do you do to break the power of something that cannot shut itself off? Something that is destroying centuries of human progress in the matter of a few decades? You are caught in a giant whirlpool and the BILLIONAIRES who CAN shut the gate valve WILL NOT DO IT because their livelihoods depend on that uninterrupted water flow. On the shore is a man with a gun who can save the day, use it to seize the controls from the billionaires, and shut the gate valve. Which means he may have to shoot a few of them. What are you going to do, WPA???
Wall Street and now Hillary. Fraud – in the case of the former – and the most extreme recklessness and negligence – in the case of the latter – were so thick on the ground that prosecution should have been child’s play. It heaps disrepute on the FBI and the justice system in general.
I see the Comey caper as Putin-esque. You can see taking shape right under your nose an Aristocratic elite that’s above the law because no matter what outrage or fraud or theft or deception, no consequences attach. For the elite criminal life goes on as before or maybe even better. No matter what was done it’s seen as either perfectly legal or, if it’s not, because it’s supposedly so very difficult to prove criminal intent, there’s no prosecution. If you’re an ordinary joe it’s of course a different story.
Never mind the ludicrous carelessness and negligence with Hillary’s emails, this travesty disqualifies Hillary as a candidate and never mind the nonsense of holding your nose and voting Hillary as the lesser of the evils. What reasonable person would think that the Bill and Loretta meeting, right out in the open, wasn’t about a fix? Given the brazenness of this whole affair, you’re fully entitled to think the worst.
“this travesty disqualifies Hillary as a candidate” –Volodya
That leaves Trump.
But Trump is going to be killed by JiminFlorida, as part of his simpleton solution: “Kill the billionaires”
So Trump won’t be alive to vote for.
That leaves Gary Johnson, Jill Stein, or a Bernie Sanders write-in. Since none of them are billionaires, I trust JiminFlorida will not be killing them.

===============
No, I don’t think that will prove to be the case. As Bernie suggested in one of his speeches: “Maybe Trump is broke, who really knows?”
I think that is exactly what we will learn in due time…….that Trump doesn’t have $1 billion much less $10 billion. And in fact I won’t be the least surprised to learn that his wealth is negative. A structure of massive debt supporting assets of questionable value.
Even so it is possible for such a person to maintain a facade if the gold plating on your toilet fixtures is very thin. Who’s to know?
It burns you that someone with such poor speaking skills (according to you) has so much more money that you. He has more money than you, than Q.
It burns you that someone with such poor speaking skills (according to you) has so much more money that [sic] you.
============
If that is what you believe you have no understanding at all of what makes me tick.
You ARE right about the poor speaking skills though. If he wins the presidency I will guess he will be the most incoherent speaker to hold the job, from Washington through Obama. I cringe at the thought of an address before the UN or a State of the Union address.
Fortunately, he will have some articulate flunky as VP to send as his rep to important weddings and funerals.
Did you read the latest Fred? It’s over for Humanity anyway. Tobor was right. Capitalism always was an anti-human system and soon even the dullards will realize it – too late to stop it. An earlier comment I made:
Fred has extraordinary clarity – very rare. And if people don’t like where this all leads, then they shouldn’t have embraced Capitalism with such mindless passion and allowed it to do whatever it wanted to do to our Civilization. But the vast majority only care about their own profit and any clarity they have goes towards achieving that and only that.
The alternative to a guaranteed minimum income? People dying on the streets. Millions in FEMA camps. Revolution. And yes, if they get most people on the dole, they’ll have great power over them. And since the Elite are “green”, they will begin to lower the world’s population in all kinds of different way. Why would they allow useless eaters to use up their resources?
You thought Capitalism was the remedy against this kind of thing. But you failed to discriminate between Late or Corporate Capitalism and what came before. Late stage Capitalism is utterly inimical to the Nation State and thus the rights bequeathed to us in the Constitution
Now back to you, Q. Forgive my rudeness. But I feel strongly for Trump and hold his honor as my own until he prove unworthy of it. Someplace in the Bhagavatam, Krishna warns against machines, saying they will ruin everything.
I’ve learned to keep my comments on point and not cover every single conditionality or exception. It would be too wordy for this forum.
The billionaires, as a distinct class, represent a destructive force that must be arrested at all costs. All the details about who are incorrigible and who would repent and return their ill-gotten gains can be hashed out at the New Nuremburg Trials. I think the vast majority of them will end up in the gallows because the criminal energy in them is too strong.
I don’t believe in Donald Trump because he is pulling the same mega psy-op that Obama pulled in 2008. The Donald is saying a lot of the right things but, so did Obama to a nation ready to vomit out Lord Bush and Viceroy Cheney.
All you can vote for is the propaganda you agree with. Better than voting is for the tattered political estate to exercise Force Majeur and claw back power from the billionaires who brought us to this point.
Did the Billionaires, the Jews and their Media, and the Political Establishment hate Obama like they have hated Donald Trump? Obviously not. And anyone they hate that much can’t be all bad.
Underneath all the glitter and bluster there might well be some gold. Be careful lest you reject the Man of the Hour, the gift of Heaven. Flawed? Certainly. But like Constantine he is not religious but is a barbarian – therefore he is clay that can be molded as opposed to being cast in a worthless mold.
I agree with Volodya, the Comey-Clinton Scandal is Putinesque. So too are the Snipers in Dallas and the Orlando Pulse Nightclub Shooting. Think about it, each of these events helped remove the Spotlight on her. And as we saw with Vince Foster, The Clintons will murder if they have to, to seize and hold power.
Vince Foster suffered from clinical depression and committed suicide. His suicide had nothing to do with the Clintons.
“Foster was found dead in Fort Marcy Park, a federal park in Virginia. He was found with a gun in his hand and gunshot residue on that hand. An autopsy determined that he was shot in the mouth and no other wounds were found on his body.
A draft resignation letter was found torn into 27 pieces in his briefcase. The letter contained a list of complaints, including, “The WSJ editors lie without consequence” and saying, “I was not meant for the job or the spotlight of public life in Washington. Here ruining people is considered sport.”
Q, Brexit was good for the DOW, which today is over 18,000… right now at 18,146.
I guess it is up to me to remind the disingenuous spinmeister, once again, that it was YOU, not me, who felt political break-ups (i.e. the world becoming more granular) was a bad thing that would produce (or was at that moment producing) a market plunge.
I think you should push the Brexit issue to the back burner. It’s going to take a long time to play out.
Apparently wpa_ccc lives on this web site. You may more commonly know him as Asoka, who gathered so much scorn that he eventually took advantage of the web attack, to reincarnate as wpa_ccc. It’s the same tired cliche-ridden bullshit that Asoka used to espouse. He seems to post every 5 minutes, so it’s hard to escape his bullshit. A fact that pleases him, I’m sure. For those of you who want to encourage him, keep replying to his trite postings. Admit it, are any of you surprised by his responses to what you say? How about “Islam is a religion of peace”, that’s just one example of the cliche-ridden bullshit he pounds out on here, and yet you people can’t resist replying to him, like he has an original idea that should be responded to. Everything he posts here is a PC cliche & for some reason, you people buy into it. Face it, the guy lives somewhere in a basement, and posting here is what he does instead of masturbating in the dark. He is a true troll, in every sense of the word. This isn’t someone that you can learn anything from. The guy is a loser, you-all just encourage him. “Oh well, so it goes.”
Exactly, it only lives to post extreme contrarian positions as bait… hoping for some, any, interaction. Don’t feed.
wpa ccc is a female. Her writing and opinions are distinctly that of a tenured Jewish female professor of Women’s Studies at Bryn Mawr.
I can envision our priestess to Kali-Ma Klinton.
wpa ccc is stocky,
has mild case of cankles,
short dark hair tied in a bun,
believes cosmetics exist to oppress womyn,
ALWAYS spells women as “womyn,”
has a poster of Andrea Dworkin in her office,
and has that look of being offended about something.
I hereby pledge to never respond to Asoka, who hasn’t posted here in years! LOL!
Obama swaps Ebola for Brexit:
Media: Obama said that NATO should take action against ISIS, Russia and Brexit
Obama or was it Killary sounding off?
“Kill the billionaires”
Well, well, may be not so fast. If I am correct and Hillary (The Pirates) seized the power in Washington, the City in the near term will be the best Putin’s situational partner and that includes Goldman Sachs.
Finca, to cover all exceptions regarding billionaires distracts from the real message.
The billionaires, as a distinct class, represent a destructive force that must be arrested at all costs. The Financialized Matrix they created is a black hole that is sucking civilization into its maw and destroying all that has been achieved for the past 500 years or more. Unlike a black hole of Nature, this black hole can be turned off BUT, the billionaires who CAN turn it off WILL NOT.
If an exposed power cord has caused somebody to be seized by the electric current, and some psychopath won’t cut the power and is standing between you and the circuit breaker, time is critical, what do you do? Hint::: extreme violence involved.
All the details about which billionaire is incorrigible and which ones would repent and return their ill-gotten gains can be hashed out at the New Nuremburg Trials. I think the vast majority of them will end up in the guillotine because the criminal energy in them is too strong.
QUESTION, does mankind have the time to arrest the billionaire class and follow Due Process before the Matrix they created destroys the fabric of civilization to where it cannot recover?

Bean Town Bill. I know you don’t post too often anymore, but don’t go completely. I know it can be, well, trying. It’s good to see you post. What you said about JHK banning individuals from the site, I think JHK tolerates some of us. Maybe even with a half smile, hopefully. I’m certainly not the spokesperson, but maybe he does “tolerate” some of us. And maybe sometimes he thinks it’s a privilege to have this as a part of our thought life. I think it’s refreshing to have a token spiritualist on the site from time to time.
You know, it does get a little trying sometimes here with all the politics, prejudice, offensiveness, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.. I should have my own blog. Let’s veer for a minute. Things I’m grateful to have experienced on this planet. Okay, I’ll start. The way baby goats cry, at least mine do, when you call them. Or, celery. Celery, stringy, and the string gets between your teeth. Okay… wpa-ccc, what say you? Anything to add. People could actually add that at the end of their post.
I wanted to clarify my review of Sylvia Browne’s work published in 2008. I had never read any of her work heretofore. A prophetess she wasn’t, she’s way off on that! We all have different gifts. Some of the stuff is a little much in it. But, I believe she was a gifted spiritualist. The work is beautiful, insightful and heart comforting for these times we are in. It’s a great read for those who want to expand a little. What she writes about Esperanza, absolutely astonishing! She also wrote about H.G Wells. Fascinating persona, that one. Outline of History by him is most definitely worth a read. If you really want a blast, read Messages from Michael. This commenced in 1979, too. What a year! Messages from Michael, a little about soul groups. I believe that CFN may be one on its own. Some seem irrevocably drawn. We aren’t all knowing, that’s for sure.
Truth #4 – The Kardashians wouldn’t make a Julia Butterfly Hill.
Two years living in a tree so they wouldn’t cut down a
swath of redwood. The Kardashians with their fake lips.
I might add, any person in their 30’s who spent 800,000
to 1 million bucks for each appearance could look pretty
good. I did a little research. A tad excessive?
Truth #5 Juno, who gives a crap about Jupiter when there are
people who may be hungry. We can’t solve problems
here, WTF?
Truth # 6 I can’t think of any more.
And so, only a few questions remain, A) Who profited from the space program? B) Is it really normal for people in the north to have fresh strawberries in winter. C) What was the other one?
Excuse me, I need a double shot of Crown. Then I may stick out my thumb, march to Jerusalem, read signs in Arabic. Keep smiling. 🙂
Bill is Jewish. He doesn’t want any Arabic signs in or near Jerusalem.
It’s funny, the racists have no trouble hating on the arabs, or more specifically, the mussulman cohort, in most situations, but lo and behold, when the jooz are involved, why, the mussulman has unexpected allies.
Jews are very generous at giving away what belongs to others.
Exhibit “A” is Emma Lazarus, whose smarmy poetry defaces the Statue of Liberty. The Founding Fathers, if they had lived to see it, would have ordered that bronze plaque removed and melted down. Emma was toying with dark forces that she had no understanding of.
Sure Emma. What White nations have must be shared but, nobody can touch Israel or call its hypocrisy into question!
Although I agree that far too many dullards, the products of modern liberal american education, conflate codified immigration law, the bill of rights, and the constitution with a mawkish poem on the side of a gauche gifted eyesore (the “whore in the wharf”) with the result that they believe its words as law, its image as a national totem/symbol, I don’t believe that Emma is any less an heir to this bastard’s bastion than you.
Was Emma a US citizen? Any less than you? This country is here for those willing to take it and use it… like that whore in the wharf.
Don’t worry for her, she’s getting paid, that’s all she ever wanted.
Very eloquent and thought provoking. I am torn between what I know to be true vs. what ought to be.
A person, who is a legal citizen by fiat only, is not equal to a descendant of the pioneer stock that gave America its distinct identity. Emma Lazarus’ heritage is the same as that which was chased out of a hundred countries and not without sound reason. Her “generosity” reflects that.
As for what I think ought to be, the birth of the U.S.A benefited from the finest parentage. Primarily of British blood, some European genes, and the beneficiary of Peak Enlightenment. So much promise was lost in 1861 and will never be recovered. The soil, blood, and education that took thousands of years to bear fruit on the Earth has been squandered and lost.
That kind of accumulated spiritual energy will not be found in a Chinese-dominated world of the 21st century. The kind of world fit to be represented by a 305-foot whore in the harbor.
Was Emma a US citizen?
What difference does it make, Stupid?
This country doesn’t belong to anyone, stupid, but those willing to use it. There is no birthright. America is a whore, perhaps if you stopped waving your flag and falling for the jingoistic propaganda, you’d realize that your American “ancestry” means shit, just ask your long lost kin in west virginy. If you’re not making the whore money you’re worthless, we’ll bring in more “Americans” that will. Emma has as much right to this place as you, Juan, Samir, and Li Ping. It’s anyone’s for the taking, that is the way dummy, lest you are confused.
Well said, Frank. Your eloquence expresses your vileness.
Frank, you went from being eloquent to wallowing in New Leftist muck.
“This country doesn’t belong to anyone, stupid, but those willing to use it. There is no birthright.”
A very Jewish way of thinking. Surrender what was wrought at great cost. Discard a lineage that traces its political blood back to the Treaty of Westphalia, the Social Contract, the writings of the Founding Fathers, the Labor struggles to restore the economic value of work. Throw it all away for the sake of our blood-stained war-backed drug-tainted money and the greasy commerce that respects nothing but profit.
I stand on the solid foundation of thought that brought this nation-state into being while you represent the termite-infested drug house that sits atop the foundation.
But, I believe she was a gifted spiritualist
She was a con. And that is that.

Loretta Lynch is trying out her comedy routine. Quoted in Politico:
“We must continue working to build trust between communities and law enforcement. We must continue working to guarantee every person in this country equal justice under the law…”

Will the Elite provide a universal minimum wage? Or do they intent to rely on the Four Horsemen to reduce the excess population of serfs and preserve natural resources? The latter obviously. Why else did Western Europe invite Muslims in? If you really want to save the Poor, you don’t overwhelm the people who are trying to save them. It’s like if someone in a boat was trying to pull a drowning person out of the water, and another person in the boat starts screaming, “So you think you’re better than him because you’re in the boat!” and then pushing the saver into the water. Repeat again and again. Soon the most virtuous person of all has the boat to himself and all his former colleagues are in the water, either treading or drowning.

The System must now be very Corrupt?
Comey was held out as some kind of paragon of honesty and virtue in the FBI. But yet he decided that it wouldn’t be “fair” to Hillary who as US Secretary of State was using her personal server as a Dropbox to solicit money (over $150 million) for The Clinton Foundation by accepting donations to the Clinton Foundation in exchange for US government favors. (For example, US State Department approval to allow the Russians to buy a controlling stake in the US uranium mining industry). Comey basically said that Hillary was indictable under the Gross Negligence (“extremely careless”) prong of the statute, but he said that it wouldn’t “fair” to Hillary since there has only been one precedent case in which a “civilian” has been held culpable under the statute absent a showing of “Intent”. Here, there are lots of precedents involving military people, but Hillary was not in the military. At the time, Hillary was only the US Secretary of State. ( Here, there is at least one precedent case involving a “civilian”. ) So, Comey concluded that it would not be “fair” to poor innocent Hillary who as US Secretary of State (like the Director of the CIA) did not know that she handles classified information every day. Poor Hillary was just “extremely careless”, and Hillary and Bill Clinton should, therefore, be allowed to keep their $150 million, and to again become President of the United States. According to Comey, this is “fair” even though, Comey admits, Hillary violated the statute.
I mean, really, what’s a career bureaucrat to do? He was in with the big boys, the elite, before (HSBC), but if he were to be relieved from his duties after indicting Hillary, could he ever go back? He can’t bite the hand that feeds him, not today’s man… food comes before falling on swords.
Comey may have lied to Congress?
They asked Comey why Hillary had her own server in her house? Comey said: “It was for her own convenience.”
No one followed up the question. But if you think about it, this response makes no sense. What relationship does the sending and receiving of emails have to the physical location of the email server? In fact, it would be manifestly much more inconvenient to set up your own personal server. You’d have to buy a server, hire a bloke to come to your house to set it up, maintain it, etc. Moreover, in Hillary’s case, she had to physically re-type US State Department emails into her personal email system. The only reason that one would endure the significant inconvenience of installing a personal server in own’s home is because they had some nefarious purpose in mind. A reasonable person could conclude that this is evidence of “Intent”.
You’re caught up in the facts but missing the message. Comey clearly divulges in his testimony that Hillary met all the thresholds for criminal indictment. He is directly stating that yes, she broke the law, and no, they are not going to pursue it. I’m almost in agreement with Pat Buchanan on this one; the denouement reveals that the ball is in the public’s, the people’s court… judge her yourselves if you are braver than I.
Q., I said the markets would plunge if UK left the EU. The U.K. has not left and probably never will. Hence, as I stated, not going granular means no plunge.
I, wpa–ccc, of Green Valley, believe the Brexit will never happen, for two reasons.
1) The EU is not allowing the UK any unofficial negotiations, so they have no idea how any of these economic negotiations will go. The UK government is scared to pull the trigger and no one in power wants to be the one to do it.
2) The UK needs free trade with the EU. If they want free trade, they also have to agree to free movement of labor. Stopping free movement of the labor was one of the core reasons the Brexit passed.
Here is what you said:
“Yeah, now we will see just how great it is to get granular as the markets plunge.”
We haven’t gotten granular and the markets are fine… So I stand by what I said.
http://stopsylvia.blogspot.com/
And here is what I said 2 days earlier:
We are less than a day from the Brexit vote. I hope they vote to “Leave” but I doubt they will. People generally fear changing the status quo.
I prefer all things breaking into smaller units………becoming more granular.
Pequiste was wrong. The Dallas shooter was a Christian and an Afghanistan war veteran. Therefore, let’s apply the Trump solution: close the borders to all Christians and immediately deport all war veterans.
Nay -I was right.
Recall my suspicion that Dallas police massacre murderer(s) were either celebrating Eid al Fitr or participating n BLM hysteria.
Turns out the media is reporting that Johnson was lone wolf attacker
and happens to be black.
And I thought it had been a small team terrorist event.
He wanted to kill white people.
Going to be a looong hot summer.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3681287/Police-officers-alert-nationwide-wake-Dallas-shooting.html
Yesterday evening, I was drinking a glass of red wine watching the Dallas race riot on the Internet and thinking about Comey’s testimony before Congress. The TV news reporter was speaking in a very solemn tone eulogizing the murdered Dallas police officers. The scene showed a line of very grave riot police with a group of black teenagers in the background who appeared to be dancing and flashing gang hand signs which appeared to be upside B-signs for “Bloods” (pro-Bloods) and inverted C-signs (anti-Crips).
My wife asked me: “What’s wrong?”
I just slowly shook my head and muttered: “Dear…This whole week…I don’t have the intellectual ability to answer that question in just a few minutes.”
@barbisbest:
I have no plans to leave CFN. Despite my complaints of thread-hijackers, and despite the anti-technology bias of the host, I think this site offers the opportunity to enlighten readers to the dangers facing us as we move forward into the future.
Concerning Sylvia Browne, I don’t know about her spirituality, but I do know she hurt people by giving incorrect psychic readings to persons in dire need. She insisted she was psychic, but obviously wasn’t, yet she charged money for readings. Sorry, Barb, but she’s not on my favorite person’s list.
Re the space program, yes, people are starving all over the world, but I believe your complaint is misplaced. The real culprit is our military spending. We currently spend about 600-800 billion dollars annually on the military, and for what? Useless wars we started that have killed and maimed millions of people. Yet the annual NASA budget is on the order of 20-25 billion, one thirtieth of the military’s budget.
We probably could cut our military spending by half without compromising our security. Think what spending 300-400 billion PER YEAR could do to help starving people.
You ask what the space program has done for us. It has done too much to even begin to list, but I’ll name just one thing: surveying the near-Earth area for space rocks that could collide with our planet and wipe us all out. This gives us time to try to remedy the situation, or at least prepare enough to save countless lives.
See my link.
She was a monster. She gave hope to a family who had a child kidnapped and killed. etc.
Research if you want.
You ask what the space program has done for us.
Blacks dont think so. ‘Whitey on the Moon.’
I remember watching Walter Cronkite broadcasting the moon landing live on July 20, 1969. It was around 1 or 2 am when Armstrong stepped on the surface. I was positively ecstatic; I was in awe; I knew I was living through a once-in–a-lifetime historic event.
I think it was the next day and tv news began doing man-in-the-street interviews. Everyone was so amazed. Then they interviewed a Black man and asked how he was feeing about the moon landing. He said it didn’t mean a thing to him – he wasn’t interested. He was more concerned about what was happening in the Black community. I was shocked – I was just a naive, young adult. I remember feeling deflated. It was in that instant that I realized we were not one society, there were separate cultures in America.
MLKs successor? Abernathy said something like,
‘Man on the moon,that money was wasted, could have fed the poor.’
And Gil Scott Heron, ‘Whiteys on the Moon.’ [song].
The incident you site confirms the ‘they are not like the other races’ line.
The incident you site [cite] confirms the ‘they are not like the other races’ line.
======================
You can do better than this, Malt. Maybe stop using speech recognition software?
Barb was pulled in by your Walter Cronkite style of bland reasonableness. Hoodwinked! Cronkite was a Leftist and you’re an Ethnic semi-supremacist (like me) with a strong love of science and dislike of the spiritual and non-rational. This will be a bitter awakening for Barb: you’re going to go from being a Vater figure to being Enemy Number One.
btb– . . . and despite the anti-technology bias of the host, . . .
===============================================
I am opposed to nuclear war. That does not make me anti-technology. Or anti-science.
It is not all technology about which our host is skeptical, but rather our uncritical uses of technology, and our mistaken belief that adding layer upon layer of complexity to our technologies is progress. This latter error is what our host calls techno-narcissism.
A perfect example is the modern automobile, where relatively simple mechanisms have been replaced with computer chips. This means, among other things, that today’s car can be hacked, rendering operations like acceleration, braking, and steering out of the control of the driver. Progress? I say it is the opposite of progress.
And I disagree. I don’t like unnecessary complexity, either. I’m in agreement with Joseph Tainter: At some point, too much complexity can bring down civilizations. But what some may consider unnecessary complexity is really one step in an evolutionary process.
Take the example you used of an automobile. When they first appeared in the 1890’s, they were considered a novelty. They only went a little faster than a horse, couldn’t travel as far, were noisy, emitted noxious fumes and were uncomfortable. People pointed and laughed when one went by. But look at them now. We can talk about happy motoring and whether or not its evolution is a good thing, but my point is that things do evolve (or devolve), and nobody can really say how those things will turn out. The technology of self-driving cars is not yet perfected, but I can see a future where automobiles actually reduce complexity.
Of course, new uses of technology bring new problems – like hacking. The Internet of things, the latest on-line development, makes everyone subject to identity theft, loss of privacy and more government control. Should we then outlaw computers? In most cases of progress, there’s always something unexpected to deal with. Do we want to be like the people who stayed in their cave when the intrepid explorer returned and asked them to see what was over the next hill? Were they better off?
BTB, you will never educate the masses. They are brainwashed by media. As JHK says :Cheese-doodle eating fat asses: buying scratch tickets by the dozen at the conveniace store. While I wait inline for a quart of Half-n-half.
Speaking of scratch tickets, the Mega Millions was up to $540 million so I ‘invested’ 10 bucks (10 non-scratch tickets). The drawing was last night and not one of the 60 numbers on my slip of paper was a match. I already had a plan in mind how I was going to dole the money out to my kids with a slew of advice and warnings about not letting it fuck up their lives.
While I wait inline [in line] for a quart of Half-n half.
=========================
You people continue to worry me with these word combinations. “Inline” is an adjective. An inline 4-cylinder engine. Or inline skates.
“In line” is an adverbial prepositional phrase, which in this case tells where you do the waiting. “In” is the preposition; “line” is the noun, the object of the preposition.
BTB–And I disagree. I don’t like unnecessary complexity, either. I’m in agreement with Joseph Tainter: At some point, too much complexity can bring down civilizations. But what some may consider unnecessary complexity is really one step in an evolutionary process.
================================
That last sentence contradicts the first two. So, let me edit it:
But what some may consider unnecessary complexity might really be one step in an evolutionary process.
Now it makes sense. And as I often point out: While every improvement is a change, not every change is an improvement.
Now back to cars. Why can’t we buy a car with hand-cranked windows instead of power windows? Going back to my 1940 Buick, I never had a hand-crank window mechanism break. I have spent hundreds of dollars replacing the motor for a power window. The group-thinking oligarchs of the auto industry will not give me the choice of buying a car without power windows. That’s the opposite of progress.
I’ll meet you halfway beantown. Billionaires of any type are very secretive. But, here are four appetizers for you. Hopefully, the credentials meet your requirements.

Then there’s the old problem of crypto-Jews who, by definition, take up foreign religions, like Wahhabism and Roman Catholicism to hide their identities. Saudi billionaires and Gulf State emirs are Dönmeh Jews who use Wahhabism as political cover. Turkey is ruled by Dönmeh Jews as well. Not a good thing for native Turkmen or Armenians.

I envy your lack of concern, even obliviousness, to errors large and small and hence you never mention them except when I mention them. You must sleep well at night… 8 hours minimum straight through.
Do you have children? Do you correct their spoken and written language? Do you fear that if they went through life appearing ignorant they might be less employable? Did you stop giving them the benefits of your acquired wisdom when they hit a certain age like 18 or 21? No, I didn’t think so.
Do you remember when NYC Mayor Ed Koch said that there was a word in common use in the city whose mispronunciation in a job interview could destroy a person’s hiring prospects? The word was “asked” and the mispronunciation was “akst.” I remember thinking how brave Koch was to mention this since it was mainly an ethnicity issue.
Again, there is a difference between typing errors produced on an autocorrecting typing interface viewed on a 4.5″ smartphone screen and intellect. You’re simply far too dim to realize it.
It’s not a mispronunciation if it’s part of the dialect. Language is not dead, not decided… it is alive and continuously evolving.
I’m not a pensioner pawing my balls while scrolling and admonishing for found typos week in and week out. I’m also not concerned with proofreading for a coterie of antisemites, fascists, racists and full fledged wackjobs posting here.
Ah the old small screen smartphone defense.
Ah the old language-always-evolves defense.
How ’bout letting me worry about the coterie of antisemites and you proofread your own stuff?
P.S. In my years as an auditor I noticed that if I raised and reported a half dozen issues the auditee would only respond to one or two. This is what you have done. Smart move. It is almost never possible to defeat all criticisms.
Language is not dead, not decided… it is alive and continuously evolving.

Wrong. In our day, language is degenerating.
Is that what the Romans said?
Clueless… plenty of clueless in these parts.

Are were you suggesting we should celebrate ignorance in language usage because that shows we are “evolving”? That would make you clueless, now wouldn’t it, Frankie? Just axin’.
Situation is tense in New Haven. That New Haven Green, laid out by John Davenport and his Puritan flock from London in 1640 as common ground where cows could be let loose to communally graze, has evolved over almost 4 centuries into a public square where all political grievances and discontents accumulated from at least the past 50 years are acted out and acted upon. Yesterday and last nite it was hundreds of blacks and their scruffy white allies, OWSer types, fiery speeches, then out to the streets closing off roads and stopping traffic. The police, neutralized, did nothing. Finally everybody got tired and went home. That’s the way it is now in this Sanctuary City, once home to the New Haven Railroad and Winchester Firearms, now a 3rd World Welfare Colony in this Banana Republic. My take, stay the hell out of the cities. There is nothing there but violence, filth, poverty and death.
Turns out in Minnesota the guy killed was carrying a loaded handgun illegally and had been arrested at least 50 time previously. The guy killed in Louisiana had 27 priors and was also in possession of a loaded pistol. This is what the police are dealing with.

Question, these people out in the streets across the USA, do any of them work, have jobs to go to, or otherwise employed at something? If not, how do they live? How do you stay up all night chanting and battling the cops and be on the job the next morning at 7:00 am? How can it be done?
brh
Your question is simple to answer BRH – working people of all colours, in the USSA, are paying for the “protesters” to live and play:
– Cash (via check/direct deposit/EBT card) welfare payments.
– W.I.C. program.
– Section 8 housing subsidies.
– Head Start.
– School breakfast and lunch programs.
– Obama phones.
– Earned income credit.
– Medicaid.
– Free dental at county clinics.
– Subsidies for internet service.
– Charter school vouchers.
– Extra payments in each program for each and every child born. (70% + out of wedlock births in the A.A. community. Let’s play ” Who be the baby daddy?”)
Lots more programs exist, but you get the drift. And that is how it is done!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzspsovNvII (must view this!!)
Completely disgusted of paying for all this crap my self. How about the rest of the CFN?
I cannot wait for the EBT system to seize up .- a computer malfunction would do it.
Then we shall see riots the like we have not ever seen in modern America.

Funniest line of the day. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Actually the vile slimebags Maury Povich and Jerry Springer, have made their eternal marks (and more than a few shekels) on (of late) American mass media (TV specifically) kultcha with programs specifically that play that very game.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiRGt_lIfXI (Maury)
I think everyone knows about Jerry.
Incredible to think how this raw sewage from these beasts is rewarded and given media exposure.
“Why would Trump fire his top guy five months before the election if he were not running a sincere campaign? Why bother? Because the campaign was heading for disaster following a succession of blunders. And there’s a huge difference between losing an election and getting wiped out.
Trump’s brand will be enhanced by a run that ends in a standard defeat. You can already hear him playing the victim, claiming the election was stolen, blaming everyone from the Republican National Convention, to the #NeverTrump movement, to the media, to the donor class, all the way down to a cabal of Syrian refugees smuggled over the border with instructions from ISIS to end Christmas.
Trump can sell that. He can sell being the casualty of a conspiracy to rob the American people of his terrific presidency. “This country would have been so great, believe me.”
What he cannot hawk is being the man who leads to the GOP to an historic clobbering, taking a fleet of Congressmen down with him. The race must be kept respectable if not competitive.
It shouldn’t be hard. The polarization of the country means 45 million Republicans would vote for a pot plant if it said it hated Hillary. All Trump has to do is run the traditional Republican campaign — casual discrimination, militaristic bombast and the occasional NRA catchphrase — and tribal voting will take care of the rest.”
There are some people who are so evil that they must be stopped at any cost, even to electing a oaf like Trump.
This will shock you but, I actually voted for Obama in 2012. NOT that I supported him or the crime syndicate behind him. I voted for Obama to keep an even greater evil out of the White House. The plutocrat, Zionist-gofer, and Mormon-Mafia don, Mittens Romney.
I have voted 3rd party for the previous 30 years so, you can imagine the angst I felt when faced with a candidate so evil that putting Obama back in was the only option.
The same case exists for Kali-Ma Klinton, who is currently manifested in this dimension as Hillary Rodan. Indiana Jones should try and face THAT evil!!! The lesser evil is a billionaire blowhard who will not be able to honor his promises. At least we can vote for the propaganda we like.
Civil Despair
First of all I want to say that I think the shooting of Dallas police has nothing to do with racism, but of course there is racism in America, and not only white, but also black. And the fact that the fight against racism drove it deep inside does not make the situation better, as it breaks out in bloody incidents.
And though I have great respect for the American police, who still provide law and order in the country armed to the teeth with all sorts of weapons, I do not exclude that part of the numerous executions of blacks in America that really rocked the country in recent years, was determined by racist sentiments of the police.
When they see that the door of a stopped car opens, they assume that they will be shot upon and it gives them the right to shoot to kill immediately and without warning. One may argue about the justification of this attitude from his fellow men who went to work in the police, knowing that this work is related to very specific risks, but there may simply be no other way – America is full of lunatics, who are ready to use weapons at any time against the police, against the driver of car-service, against anyone just like that.
But here is a very different case. Police was shot by a soldier of the American army who went through Afghanistan, was awarded for service with medals of the US Army and NATO, and the fact that some co-worker accused him of sexual harassment is possibly due to the fact that he just slapped her on the ass – in the US military realities that would be enough.
Moreover, after the service, he was engaged in the care of sick children, and this is a job that requires psychological stability. Nobody takes that kind of work just for the sake of money.
And such a person takes up arms and begins to kill the police. In fact, he declared war on the state, his personal civil war and was ready to die in this war for the sake of the idea, and unsuccessful attempts of the media to pull a wool over its readers head based on likes in Facebook says that he was not a member of the extremist organizations. The only conclusion that I can draw from the incident that it was a consequence of civil despair – complete disbelief in the possibility of improving the situation by legal means.
And Trump, by the way, felt the specifics and was very discreetly talking about the racial factor of this incident, as well as when a representative of his election campaign blamed for what happened Hillary Clinton on the grounds that she was accusing Police of being racist, he immediately distanced himself from these statements.
And not because he was afraid of being charged with a cynical use of this theme in his election campaign. His behavior clearly showed that he was not afraid of such allegations, but that it can happen tomorrow with one of his supporters or supporters of Sanders, who associated with them their hopes, but seeing how these hopes crumbled due to manipulation of the elections, can respond quite inadequately.
But after the director of the FBI all over the country with lots of details described how a candidate for the US presidency grossly and systematically violated the law, and then said that he saw no reasons why she should be charged with any crime, many will feel severely distressed.
Moreover, Madame Secretary forged the primaries and committed the coup in the country clearly not in order to run honestly against Trump in the general election….
The blacks don’t believe that they receive Justice. No Banker goes to jail. Hillary walks while the legal community is dumbfounded at the specious legal reasoning and the audacity of the airport Clinton-Lynch meeting. No jobs for young people. The people believe that the System is rigged. Cynicism abounds. Violence is now tragic, but arguably justifiable. Two tiered Legal system in which the upper class and the poor are treated differently. Rape of Justice (Equality Before the Law). Violence ensues.
The leaders who rape Justice (Equality Before the Law), and the Rule of Law will pay for their arrogance and Hubris. The Greeks said that Life is Tragic.
Nemesis (mythology) In the ancient Greek religion, Nemesis (/?n?m?s?s/; Greek: ???????), also called Rhamnousia/Rhamnusia (“the goddess of Rhamnous”) at her sanctuary at Rhamnous, north of Marathon, was the spirit of divine retribution against those who succumb to hubris (arrogance before the gods).
“First of all I want to say that I think the shooting of Dallas police has nothing to do with racism”
Hmmm, and I suppose that issues with Chechnya have nothing to do with religion?
Islam is just fine in modern days Chechnya, which I can’t say about Islamist terrorists in the pay of Clinton and Riyadh.
Hold the presses!
I just read the name of the officer who shot Castile in Minnesota.
Jeronimo Yanez
Obviously a white hispanic (white indigenous?) name.
“It was in that instant that I realized we were not one society, there were separate cultures in America.”
I was young when I first realized we were not one society. It was at the city limit when I saw the sign that said: “Nigger, don’t let the sun set on you.”
In his January 2008 speech following his defeat in the New Hampshire primary — the one will.i.am set to music — Barack Obama insisted, “We are not as divided as our politics suggest … we are one people, we are one nation.” That conviction, to say the least, has been sorely tested during Obama’s presidency. It has been especially strained during a presidential campaign in which Republicans nominated a race-baiting demagogue for president. And last night, when a gunman murdered police officers during a Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas, it appeared to reach a kind of breaking point. In the feverish late-night heat, race-baiters at the New York Post, Breitbart, and Matt Drudge stoked a race war they clearly craved. It was 1968 again, more than a few observers said. Everything seemed to be coming apart.
But the old, tattered ideal of unity may be healthier than it seemed. The demonstration in Dallas was the very model of a functioning liberal society — a peaceful protest against police conducted under the protection of the police themselves. Even the most radical of the protesters deplored the shootings, and the police honored the right to protest.
Probing deeper, into more tender spots, one could even detect a formative consensus about the underlying cause of the protest: the routine violence by police against African-Americans. Videos of the murders of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile have not only galvanized African-Americans who have grown accustomed to the constant threat of police brutality, but they also shocked no small number of white Americans. “In the era of Facebook Live and smart phones,” wrote the conservative columnist Matt K. Lewis in the Daily Caller, “it’s hard to come to any conclusion other than the fact that police brutality toward African-Americans is a pervasive problem that has been going on for generations.” Leon H. Wolf, writing for RedState, conceded that police brutality against minorities had gone on because “a huge, overwhelming segment of America does not really give a damn what cops do in the course of maintaining order because they assume (probably correctly) that abuse at the hands of police will never happen to them.” They may not agree with Black Lives Matter on the exact scope of the problem, but the two sides have a shared sense of its existence — no small achievement in a country where the two parties cannot even agree on such questions as climate science — and broad moral contours.
Among Republican leaders, the impulse to restore calm prevailed over the impulse to stoke racial hysteria. Paul Ryan praised the values of peaceful protest. Newt Gingrich — Newt Gingrich! — conceded, “It’s more dangerous to be black in America. You’re substantially more likely to be in a situation where police don’t respect you.” Even Donald Trump obliquely, and with a characteristically shaky command of the facts, conceded the need for some solution to police abuse: “The senseless, tragic deaths of two motorists in Louisiana and Minnesota reminds us how much more needs to be done.” –Jonathan Chait
Vladimir Vysotsky, The Woe
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvLIhMJVFR0
Bore my Woe across a stream
Over thinning ice in Spring;
As the ice gave way, the heart all a sudden sank;
Went down water by a stone,
And the burden of my Woe
Wriggled out and by the ledge
Of the crack held back.
Since that very day, my Woe
Noses for me high and low,
Idle Talk and Dirty Wash always hang around;
But a willow, lone and bare,
And a pair of flighty quails
Were the only ones aware
That I did not drown.
If the willow or a quail
Should have had my Prince awake,
Only they had spilled the beans, given me away.
And beside himself with lust,
He set out for me at once,
And the Woe with Gossips latched
With him on his way.
He caught up with me at last,
Hugged and raised me on his arms.
In the seat behind, the Woe, smirked contentedly.
But for long he couldn’t stay.
He could spare one only day,
While instead, the Woe’d remained
With me ever since.
I agree with Bernie and QShtik about Trump, how can you tell how much Trump is really worth?
Business success comes down to generating more cash than you expend and so the essence of it is the same as running a burger stand, you have to have more money in the till at the end of the day than what you started with. And so far Trump has had four business bankruptcies.
In my view, most guys that are successful and rich keep their holes shut and tend to their affairs. OTOH Trump is a 100 decibel loudmouth bullshitter. He tells everyone over and over how rich he is. So automatically you start to doubt. At least I do. How much does he really have?
Another thing, in my view, a lot of rich guys, especially the self-made men, don’t live ostentatiously. Maybe generous allowances for the wife and mistress and kids, but not for them. A lot of these boys have seen how fast fortunes can decline and they don’t want to tempt the gods. So frugal habits are ingrained.
In any case, time will tell. As they say, pride goeth before the fall. And don’t tempt the gods.
Don’t really know how much Trump is worth, but I have no doubt that Hillary is worth trillions
And she still single handedly triggered the collapse of the Lehman Brothers in 2008, and the world-wide financial crisis, despite that she was begged no to do that, just to exert a revenge against the bank that financed the election campaign of Barack Obama.
Trump is born of money, squandered inheritance money on failed businesses, has lived an exclusive Manhattan playboy lifestyle, and avoided military service to his country. Whether or not he is a billionaire, he is a demagogue and an elitist …. A rich elitist with nothing in common with the concerns of Americans. His concern is personal enrichment by manipulating fear.
Trump was begotten of Reaganomics. Hillary was begotten of a much older evil that goes back to 1913.
Trump’s lack of organization reveals his lack of a deep political base to draw from. He is running on sheer personal spending and it’s not being allocated very well.
Hillary has no organic support of the masses but, The Establishment backs her and their Mighty Wurlitzer tells We Teh Sheep that Hillary Rodan is the front runner because she enjoys popular support.
Since the MSM claims to be the reflection of Mass Mind, then, if the MSM says that Hillary is the front runner, it is because THEY SAY that We Teh Sheep follow her.
Hillary knows full well what Karl Rove meant when he said,
“We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.”
Nothing but a bullet to the head will cure such evil.
I’m feeling so sad about current events in the U.S. I wish our country had a spontaneous outbreak of courtesy and truthfulness.

You have to go back to the New Left movement in the 1960’s to find the genesis of modern boorishness. We lept from the light we inherited and into The Pit uncovered by the New Left.
The first ledge we hit was the Summer of Love in Woodstock. The Motion Picture Production Code surrenders and leaves the gate open for the next attack on public decency.
The next landing on the way down was when George Carlin flaunted the Seven Dirty Words you can’t say on TV.
The light is dimmed further when Jane Fonda made slovenly clothing fashionable. Workout clothing was now worn outside the gym to convince random people that you were part of the Fitness Kulture and had just left the gym. Slovenly clothing begets slovenly behavior and a vanity that has no backing.
Decent White people react to other evils afoot. Rush Limbaugh and Neal Boortz take up their cause on the radio. The anger is validated and amplified but, unrequited by the political estate. Thus spawning bitterness at what had been stolen from them and the impotency of talk radio to translate that anger into political remedy.
The pit is dark when the Grunge era arrived. Full blown slovenliness and groaning noise on the radio is the last door passed by a nation beyond redemption. That was the last ledge and, with the rise of Lord Bush, Viceroy Cheney, and the PNAC Gang, we lept into the blackness to fall forever.
We’ve been in free fall down the Abyss; moving too fast to rest for a moment on some ledge. In the blackness are the screams and moanings of our ancestors who labored so hard to set a place for us in the sunlight of The Enlightenment and the dignity of the common man in the early to mid 20th century. We threw it all away for the New Left and what it represented.
ZOG Amerika is cursed and God hates this country by reason of the wicked rulers He set over us.
A modern Divine Comedy…..almost poetic…….quite cynical.
…the genesis of modern boorishness. – JimInFL
============
I have never used the word boor or boorish in writing or speaking because I was certain most people were boorish would assume it meant boring.
Here are some synonyms:
http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/boorishness
When was the age of grace? It slips my mind.
We live in an age when all the horrors of humanity become immediately known and recorded. Instantaneous global outrage.
Humans have always been vile. Vile towards their animal brethren, towards their planet, and particularly towards each other.
This is nothing new.
Men are disturbed, not by things, but by the principles and notions which they form concerning things -Epictetus
People live under the notion that humanity is progressing, that things are getting better with time… in other words; incorrect notions. This ignorance causes sadness. Smarten up.
Hillary walked because she’s widely seen by the oligarch-class as the President come next January.
And as President Hillary Clinton, she will be the pointy end of the fucking stick, said stick to be comprised of trade and tax and social policy, wielded on behalf of the Oligarch class for the purpose of extracting from your orifices every dollar that you’ve got. The Oligarchs won’t be happy until every account of every widow and orphan has been thoroughly combed through.
President Hillary Clinton will need to keep uppermost in her mind who she and Bill owe. Banking a 150 million bucks and walking away from serious charges doesn’t come for free. Yeah, the money that Bill got was a payoff for valuable services rendered while he was Prez. You remember, NAFTA, getting China into the WTO, bank de-regulation, all that. No need for a comprehensive list.
But 150 million is an exorbitant amount and the Oligarch benefactors want to see value for money. Bill did good for his paymasters. Now, Hillary has to keep doing good. Heaven forfend that Hillary doesn’t come through.
Thankfully Trump isn’t a conventional businessman but a Warrior or Ksyatria misplaced in the Vaisya or Business class. He’s not calm, cool and collected, trying to fit in at the club or with his class. He’s a Barbarian, a Chief, a Destroyer, and a Builder. He’s exactly what we need.
You need a greater scope to understand this man. A “business man” is an organization man who wouldn’t buck the whole Establishment on immigration. When he smiles, it’s real. Compare that to Obama’s fake tears or Jimmie Carter’s hideous shit eating grimace smiles.
Pucker, it’s a question of belief, sometimes self-serving belief, converging with reality, no matter if the belief just happens to be self-serving.
Do Blacks receive justice? They believe they don’t, and you can say that this is a self-serving belief, but it also happens to be true – and I can hear the screams from the storm-front types.
Hillary walks. So everyone is agog at the sheer audacity of the airport meeting and the decision to not press charges. It’s a self-serving belief for political opponents of the Clintons to say that the fix is in but it’s impossible to make the case otherwise at least with a straight face. Again belief converges with reality.
A two-tiered legal system? The poor are treated differently? Never mind that it may be a self-serving belief for people that made careers out of social activism, this also happens to be true. After all, you had it all play out right in front of you, Hillary walked, Wall Street was never prosecuted, and so what else could a reasonable man possibly conclude?
“President Hillary Clinton will need to keep uppermost in her mind who she and Bill owe.”
That would be axis Berlin – Riyadh – NSDAP (Black International)
As a total aside…..unrelated to anything in this week’s thread:
I am looking at a photo in the NYT of an artwork titled “Billboard #3” by Alexandre Farto, who also goes by Vhils and I am thinking to myself, if my name was Farto I’d consider going by Vhils as well.
I met this poor bastard in university whose name was Lipschitz. I figured his school life from K to 12 must have been nasty as Shit-lips would’ve been his unavoidable and mocking moniker. The fact that he was a short, skinny, bespectacled Jew who couldn’t have duked it out with his tormentors wouldn’t have helped him either.
Was his first name Ralph? If so, he’s having the last laugh.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_Lauren
No such luck. This guy was Woody Allen-ish.
Woody Allen is also crying all the way to the bank.
Jocks own high school, the nerds own the world.
My daughter worked at Ralph Lauren headquarters in NY for a few years but couldn’t take the pressure and left a couple of years ago. She would occasionally see RL in the building and described him as this tiny nebbishy Jewish man whose marketing people made him look a lot better than he actually looks.
Google says he is 5’6″ tall but let’s assume he lied about his height by at least 1″. Also, he turns 77 in October so let’s subtract another inch for age related shrinkage. That makes Ralph Lifshitz a 5’4″ tall Jewish billionaire from the Bronk (the plural of which is the Bronx).
When I was a wee lad in So. Jersey there was a little girl a couple of doors away whose last name was pronounced Up-a-fanny. They move to CA.
To be more accurate, it was Uppuh-fanny.
Was her first name Jen?
“Farto” is close to Russian “Fartovyi” – which means “The lucky”.
“The lucky” are those not standing too close behind Fartovyi on a crowded elevator.

==============
Correct me if I’m wrong, aren’t last names ending in yi generally Hungarian?
Jen in San Jose, yeah we live in a graceless age and current events are discouraging.
No idea how old you are, but the 1960s and early 1970s were no picnic either, what with miles-deep chasms between generations and races, the Vietnam war raging, the MLK, Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Kennedy rubouts, massive riots, the racist killings of those little black girls in that church, the racist murders of those civil rights activists, the Kent State killings. The 1950s weren’t a lot of fun in a lot of respects either for example with the Korean War and with Joe McCarthy running rampant.
But your larger point is right, right now things are a lot worse for a lot of people, hence the rise of Bernie and Trump. The bi-coastal glitterati sneer that Trump’s support all comes from racism and xenophobia, which of course, is total crap. A vicious self-serving slur if there ever was one.
Neither Bernie nor Trump would have any support if the livelihoods of millions hadn’t been offshored to China simultaneous with millions of immigrants, both legal and illegal, having been let into the country. Support for both comes mostly but not exclusively from the economic distress especially of lower income Americans.
And, to make it worse, the PTB lie about supposed “prosperity” and how the trade deals they’ve signed serve to lift all boats. The trade deals did the opposite, tens of millions have had their lives sunk, with bullshit stats coming from government agencies only serving to rub salt in the wound.
Truthfulness isn’t to be found through people that purport to be our betters, nor on university campuses which purport to nurture the life of the mind. Your “betters” lie to you, the people that claim to “educate” do the opposite. Nope, if you want truth, use your own eyes and ears.
“…if you want the truth, use your own eyes and ears.” –Volodya
Well said.
I was born in 1958. Our family moved from Kansas to the Left Coast in 1966. Right off the bat, I sensed a hardness in my school mates that wasn’t present in the Midwest. In Cupertino, we were the striving sons and daughters of engineers working in the vast armament industry. Every other kid’s dad worked at Lockheed. (My dad was an engineer for AT&T.)

Actually if you don’t watch the media and just look around you will see lots of gracious living. My neighborhood is Black, white, red, and brown. No group predominates. There is no conflict. We manage, like the vast majority to share our diversity gracefully.
“…if you want the truth, use your own eyes and ears.” –Volodya
Exactly. Nobody here has reported looking out their living room window and seeing mass shootings. It just ain’t happening in America.
Events plastered on TV for days/weeks are isolated events. For every shooting brh reports in Hartford, there are hundreds of thousands of people getting along peacefully. The minority is highlighted by media who live by “if it bleeds it leads” …
There just isn’t enough drama in all the friendships and love affairs and peaceful day to day business transactions. 364 days a year people shop together in the box stores with no violence and no TV coverage … but if one day someone acts out it will be on your evening news and you begin to generalize about “how bad things are”
Wpac,
Remember your above posted screed the next time you pontificate about gun control….
The Army believes that Hillary is not just a criminal but a traitor, that did not allow the United States special forces to intervene in the event in Benghazi and the army listens to an interview with an American Special Forces soldier, who was in Benghazi and saw how the attack on the US Mission began.
And he said that they were aware of the fact that in Benghazi the US ambassador and his guards were being murdered and were ready in a few minutes to be there, but they were forbidden to interfere by the superiors. And they violated the order and intervened and saved a few people, but divisions in Tripoli and in Croatia, which could arrive in Benghazi in just an hour, did not violate the order and the wounded and dead were evacuated by a private Libyan aircraft that was not afraid to touch down at the Benghazi airport despite the fact that armed to the teeth US Marines “were afraid” to fly in it.
Soldiers listen to this recording as we in the USSR were listening to Vysotsky and draw their own conclusions.
http://media.wrko.com/a/114158650/the-truth-behind-benghazi-3-18-16.htm
Putin should be ready to set up special refugee missions in the U.S. to rescue Whites if Hillary wins. Putin has the opportunity of a thousand years about to drop in his lap and all he has to do is take it.
I think it’s admirable that Putin made a modest but genuine offer to White Britons to homestead the Russian wilderness. But, he must step it up and give White Americans a chance to do the same thing. Putin will have to let it be known UP FRONT that Russia will not be an immigration toilet and take just anybody.
Putin will enjoy a rare privilege to be flooded with requests for White immigration and be able pick those who have something to offer. I’m sure he will give preference to tradesmen, laborers with no criminal record, and Home Ec majors, instead of useless keyboard drones and parasitic feminists.
The internet is the last thing a homesteader needs. It is vital to establish organic community with fellow homesteaders and the internet will only atomize the community into isolated individuals. Thus infecting the project with the same dysfunctions they just escaped from.
Even able-bodied retirees with reliable pensions can live in a Russian village, learn how to speak Russian, and earn their citizenship.
The Negro riots will begin either in Los Angeles or New York, and the order to suppress these riots would be given by the president, which the Army and the National Guard do not respect as in the word AT ALL.

All the bad people hate Trump. No exceptions. Learn from this. The Sons of Belial are usually wiser in their generation than the Sons of Light.
I don’t love or hate Trump. I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop. I do appreciate the rationale of a damaged people who support him and expect a remedy.
I’ll know whether Trump is for real by the VP he nominates! The VP is where the candidate’s Brand is either confirmed or dissipated. It shows whether Trump is serious about this or whether he will take a fall to enable Kali-Ma Klinton (Hillary Rodan in this physical dimension) to become POTUS. We’ve seen both Establishment Parties deliberately put up weak and worthless candidates to enable The Chosen One to be elected or re-elected.
If Trump nominates Newt Gingrich or Sarah Palin to be his VP, then Trump was a fake from the beginning. May he be accursed and driven into crushing poverty with no remedy.
However, if Trump nominates somebody like Senator Jeff Sessions, then Trump is in this for real. Sen. Sessions would be a positive confirmation of Trump’s message and reassure the grassroots support that’s been with him thus far.
Former POTUS candidate, Chuck Baldwin, would be an electrifying but high-risk choice for Trump. The moribund body of legitimate Christianity in ZOG Amerika would have an NDE and be energized because, AT LAST, somebody would represent them.
A very fine answer. Anne is deeply worried as well. If he nominates a conventional Republican, they will sell him out for filthy lucre or political favors. As she says, he is destroying this Party and creating something new – why balk now? And of course, impeachment or assassination are option too if he picks one of the boys. She advises a complete outsider. Sessions would be great, but he is needed where he is.

Trump now has the firm backing of rank-and-file policemen and a large swath of the military. The People view the System as Rigged and Corrupt.
Trump desperately needs to break the opposition’s control over the mass media and the propaganda apparatus which is attacking Trump relentlessly.
Trump has a 60% unfavorability rating. All the angry white men in America can vote for him … but he won’t be elected. I will be surprised if he is even nominated.
There’s no Rule of Law, and the System is Rigged. Fuck the Election.
If there ever was a time to totally defund NPR and PBS, the time is now. They are not even pretending to be objective.
The blacks won’t fight for Hillary. Hillary lecturing white people on White Priviledge is like Larry Flint lecturing high school kids on the evils of promiscuity. Hillary and Bill made big money for the Deep State on privatizing the prison system and incarcerating black males.
The Clinton Plantation made Big Money off the black man!
” Hillary lecturing white people on White Privilege is like Larry Flint lecturing high school kids on the evils of promiscuity”
Puck,
The only difference between the two comments is that Larry Flint would be right….
The local police forces now are heavily militarized. The police could arrest Hillary and just say: “Yeah..We know that under a strict reading of the statute Hillary is not guilty, but we can’t find any legal precedent for holding someone who is NOT guilty, so we don’t think that it would be “fair” to the police to let her go.”
This is the absurd, corrupt System that they’ve created.
We know that genetics is at work here, but questions have to be asked apart from the obvious.
Why, up until the implementation of the civil rights act was there so much less black crime?
In the 1950’s and before, there were realistic jobs for blacks. As the new egalitarian philosophy became the norm, enabling-liberals as well as blacks bought into the notion that they were capable of more. By and large, they were not. But along the way, increased numbers of Hispanics poured into the country supplanting negro labor. This phenomenon was not a problem because blacks, it was held, given the right opportunities, no longer needed to be “kept” at their former levels. And so began the massive programs to make it possible for them to reach their full potential.
The fact that it was never achieved, and for most blacks, never will be achieved, has left them in a kind of limbo.
They cannot go forward, they cannot go back. And this reality must be concealed by ever increasing and varied types of support, supplemented with white blame indoctrination.
We now have a population, therefore, which is largely idle, a people inside a vacuum with little hope of fulfilling dreams once thought attainable. Gone is the relative stability of the 50’s, replaced by the saturation of outside assistance to such a degree as to sap any desire for self determination, independence, or pride in themselves or their community.
A system erroneously thought to be unjust (but actually ensuring order) was removed to promote egalitarian beliefs. The featherless bird was expected to soar.
The laws created to control their worst qualities were removed by those far less wise than the people who instituted them.
Essentially, they now not only have the idle time and lack of restriction, but a jungle-suited genetic nature and a deep resentment for a society in which they cannot effectively function, to act out their worst tendencies.
And this is the state of blacks today.
Black violence will continue unabated despite various monetary solutions implemented to “improve” their lot, while increasing sanctions will be placed on whites. For the negro, failure is not an option from the liberal standpoint.
The end game? UNLESS THERE IS A CONCERTED EFFORT TO REVERSE THE GENOCIDAL FREE FALL THE LIBERALISTS HAVE CREATED, the following in all likelihood is what will take place: Whites will continue to be bled psychologically and financially, while at the same time the power shift will continue as brown and black populations become the majority.
As much as I would like to say otherwise, I do not see a radical upheaval of whites taking place; our law abiding nature will work against us. We will most likely become another South Africa, but the process will be slower.
I earnestly hope I am wrong. Anonymous
Certainly food for thought.
Exactly. We need a War King. And he can do little or nothing unless we are prepared for his coming and what He will demand of us. We must become Fascists and harden our bodies and spirits until he comes.
Our haughty and perpetual disdain of the desperate people of Weimar Germany, for electing Adolph Hitler, has not gone unnoticed by the gods.
Karma will surely rub our noses in the same filth that drove desperate Germans to embrace Adolph Hitler. America will never be able to drag the memory of National Socialist Germany through the mud again. America’s “Walk of Shame” is about to commence.
Whether Trump wants it or not, Karma will arrange events that force him to request Congress to grant him extraordinary emergency powers. NOT FOR HIS OWN SAKE but, to arrest the out-of-control ZOG Machine and the Bush-Obama police state. Just like Hitler had to do with the dysfunctional institutions inherited from the Weimar era.
“It can’t happen here!” That’s what they all say….

Bernie Sanders is expending a lot of effort negotiating to get the DNC and Hillary to commit to renouncing the TPP, free college tuition, and a $15 per hour minimum wage, etc. Given that Hillary will immediately Fart Off these promises once she elected, why does Bernie even bother? Is Bernie Sanders a moron?
funny
Nor does Hillary make any sense to me. If Hillary is elected POTUS, she’ll be 69 years old. For all practical purposes, she’s at the end of her road and dead. Why does she bother with all of This Shit? Hillary abused her position as US Secretary of State to sell favors to foreign countries to raise $150 million for The Clinton Foundation. Is that not enough?! Is it worth it for her to scam young people and scam black people one more time? It’s like those Lawrence Welk shows in which the old Fuckers are still trying to get down with the hot young chick to the sound of defunct big band music. WTF!!!!!
Hillary is obviously insane, right?
Hillary Rodan has the kind of Criminal Energy rarely found among The Living on the Earth. She lives on the Sacrament of destroyed lives and the energy that emanates from souls suddenly robbed of their Earthly abode.
The pedestrian things that you relate to mean nothing to Hillary Rodan and the Dark Ones who walk with her. If she attains to the Throne of Hell on Earth (Washington), she will either live out her term or be sacrificed by her peers. Thus enabling her to evil powers that no mortal can comprehend. Powers that Trickle Down to TPTB still in the flesh.
“It’s like those Lawrence Welk shows in which the old Fuckers are still trying to get down with the hot young chick to the sound of defunct big band music. WTF!!!!!”
Yesss, Sissy and Bobby…I remember them well….
How about this idea: in majority black cities in the US withdraw police departments, then deputize local armed street gangs, let them patrol the neighborhoods. It might work. Even if it would save one life it would be worth it, as the libs like to say. Can Chicago, Detroit or Baltimore be any worse? Certainly police depts. are not effective in those cities and dozens more like it. Their presence is resented. Let’s face it, blacks want to live how they want to live without interference from us white MFs.
Of course the numerous welfare programs, funded by whitey. that sustain their way of life (listed above by P) would have to end. After 150 years of freedom its time they fended for themselves don’t you think?

Die versity.
‘Hate Crimes’ laws create protected classes.
Grievance groups.
The Clinton Crime Syndicate did away with traditional welfare AND enabled the mass exodus of jobs that Blacks used to do. The offshoring of factory jobs started in the 1970’s and the agricultural labor jobs were displaced by importation of Mexicans. I grew up in Old Florida and it was a common sight to see Black orange pickers during the harvest. Fun as hell to sneak into the groves and listen to the banter amongst them! All the working groves of central Florida have moved south and I’m sure there’s nothing but the yammering of Spanish to be heard now.
Blacks have to move back to the farms and the factories have to return to the cities. It will take a systematic dissolution of the giant corporation farms and return them to a kind of sharecropping system. Some sharecropping can be done on a rent-to-own basis. This will absorb MILLIONS of currently unemployed and underemployed Americans. A government-mandated Parity Pricing system will have to be mandated to ensure that independent producers are paid what it costs to bring the produce to market. Yes, prices may go up but, we will then be paying the REAL COST of our food instead of hiding it behind welfare and other negative externalities caused by moving people off the land.
As for low and semi skilled manufacturing jobs, a minimum 15% tariff must be applied to all imports from sweatshop countries. I’m sure pricing controls can be imposed to force the foreign manufacturer to eat the cost, rather than pass it off to the American consumer. An attractive incentive to repatriate the factory back to the U.S. can be arranged as a solution to the tariff. Again, jobs that Blacks can take and earn a decent wage.
The only people who will suffer are the Top 1% who’ve been living off the economic rents that demand maximized profits from their host. It’s time that America start skimming off rents from the Top 1% and put people back to work.
Jim — The citrus belt moved South as I recall beginning in the late sixties (I was in school down here 68-72). It had to do with freezing weather according to the sages then. Now we have citrus greening.
The fact that Spanish (and blaring mariachi music) is now heard in the groves harkens back to the oldest Florida. There was even some French according to F. Parkman, though they did not succeed.
I’m not getting WPA-ish on you — I just find the migration of peoples and languages fascinating. I recently escaped the shameless development of West Central FL for “the Real Florida” as they claim up here (the Red Hills area) in part to be closer to some properties in Alabama.
You may recall that Alabama instituted some restrictive legislation related to illegal immigration a few years ago. We subscribe to the Alabama Farmers journal and there were numerous anecdotes submitted relating to the unintended consequences: the Mexicans disappeared and farmers advertised for labor at $11-12 per hour, well above minimum wage. Whites and Blacks showed up. At best they lasted two days before quitting. The agricultural commissioner penned a mealy-mouthed op-ed which basically said “um, we have a problem here.”
The bottom line is that barring necessity it is not easy to turn back the clock. In an economic environment where roughly 50% of able-bodied people are not in the labor force but receive just enough to pay the rent on the double-wide, the cable/power bills, and Wal-Mart food — why get out in the hot Alabama (or Florida) sun and sweat for a crummy $4-500 per week? As you write above, the real cost of food is hidden behind transfer payments.
The system will go on until it can’t, either owing to internal contradictions or externalities (say, a hack of the EBT system). Distribution runs on net 30 terms and between farm and store shelf, refinery and gas pump, there are numerous credit transactions. Neither the farmers nor the transporters will work for free — because they can’t. The inertia of a $14 Trillion economy will impede the rate of change, but there is a tipping point in view. The hedge-fund MD in the Big Short was two years early betting against the collapse of the housing market. But collapse it did.
It will be vastly interesting, possibly dangerous, possibly not. I think there may be cause for optimism in that there are instances of tribes forgetting their hatred for “the other” and performing the moral equivalent of the soldier falling on the live grenade to save his fellows. I recall the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake and the collapse of the Nimitz freeway in Oakland. Some locals went to the pancaked roadways and tried to rescue the trapped motorists. Yeah, maybe the exception and not the rule. Maybe they wanted to rob the dead, a cynic might opine. I don’t know. I have only my own life-experience as guide, and I was rescued once by one not of my tribe.
A fine quality reply! Sorry to hear that the State of Alabama tried to put its own back to work and failed.
The habit of labor and production must be constantly maintained. We’ve now had a few overlapping generations that have forgotten the ways of honest work and it is a shock when introduced to those who’ve only known keyboard life.
All we can hope for is to encourage and subsidize those who WANT to go back to the land; starting hobby farms with the plan to grow them into working farms in 10 years. A mass migration back to agriculture may not be possible but, the seeds of the classic American family farm can be replanted. Again, it is to put people back to work, localize production as much as possible, and get us reacquainted with where our food comes from.
Farming with 19th century implements and modern organics is damn hard thankless work and the weather and insects and deer don’t care about one’s ideology..
The internal combustion engine makes commercial scale row planting doable but ultimately it takes human fingers to pick vegetables — although AI is close to replicating this so I hear.
In our little redoubt in the Red Hills area the small town has a community garden. In the ideal self-organizing collective no one need be told to do the right thing. In the real world it usually comes down to the 80-20 rule, but our community garden is more like 95-5. There is a pronounced racial dimension to that ratio. Need I say more?
Even in paradise there will be those who expect that, magically, the paths will be weeded, grasses mowed. Dependence on the State/The Man is a hard habit to break.
FPL, I didn’t suggest a reversion to 19th century farming implements.
What was available to farmers in the 1950’s would be sufficient to establish a 40-acre hobby farm and ramp it up to becoming a working farm that can live solely on mandated Parity Pricing markets. If you’ve seen ag-machines lately, they are batshit crazy with high tech bullshit and break down often. I’d rather have farm equipment from the 1950’s-1970’s before any new machine of today.
As far as regular maintenance of weeding, mowing, repairs etc., that’s what resident helpers are for. They live on the farm and earn their keep by being good helpers.
I didn’t have community gardens in mind, either. These new farms I’m talking about sell to commercial and local markets like real farms do. They sell to Parity Pricing markets where their produce is purchased for what it actually costs the farmer to raise, harvest, and bring to market. Governments on all levels must give purchasing priority to these markets, which will force independent buyers to at least match what the government is paying. Moral obligations and food security far outweigh the consumer’s shortsighted desire for cheap throwaway food.
The Free Market is a cruel and niggardly demigod that is not infallible. Left to itself, it destroys producers by driving prices down to where domestic manufacturing and farms go under. Markets for ag products require a regulated market to prevent such destruction. Price floors must be set for good quality. If boutique farmers have superior quality products and want a higher price, then go for it. But, the bulk of food production will come from farms that produce Good Enough food. They will be the engine of food production and the price floors must keep them producing.
I was merely making observations from experience. We tried the “made by hand” approach for a while in Alabama and Nature always wins. Of course, you actually have to be there full time and we are part timers. We are now trying fruit trees. Locals grafted from scion wood.
Air-conditioned tractor cabs would feel very nice in July. Also protection from hornets.
The community garden in FL just happened to be a discovery when we moved up here from Tampa. Since Nature is always calling the shots there is monthly maintenance (weeding/mowing). The participation is typical: always the same people show up. Self-organizing collectives require cultural homogeneity to be truly collective.
“I hope Trump wins. ” –brh
If Trump is nominated and if Trump wins, here is what I think will happen. Trump will have a Vice President, let’s say Newt Gingrich (they get along well).
Within the first year Trump will resign to do more interesting things that don’t get you death threats.
That is how we get President Gingrich (or President Palin or whoever)
Palin does not have a prayer because she is not considered serious by the arbiters of seriousness. Trump is not that tone deaf.
this despite a rather interesting piece run in a glossy WSJ magazine prior to her being contacted by the McCain forces titled: “Running Alaska”. This piece has been buried by the PTB. Maybe it can still be found. I read it by chance, since we were WSJ subscribers at the time. I had no clue who she was. “Running” was a play on her athleticism and propensity to jog.
Surely you would be attracted to a powerful female figure who rose from obscurity to state prominence. Then again maybe not. Wrong letter after the name. We must be carefully taught.

Jim, have you ever asked yourself a question who financed the majority of so-called “alternative media” in the period after 911 and why George W. Bush, a very talented political and military leader, sworn enemy of the Clintons, became a “village idiot” almost openly blamed for 911?
You live in a very complex multi-layer propaganda Matrix, Jim, be careful with your conclusions.
Thanks but, I must try to be concise and hit the most salient points that readers can relate to. I’m already prone to writing lengthy opinions and to account for all possibilities would cause me to lose focus.
I do recall the mass wipe out of independent alternative media at the end of the Clinton regime a.k.a. the dot.com bust. That left a vacuum for MSM-financed “alternative media” to act as Controlled Opposition. Not obvious then but, clear to see now.
It just takes time to figure out who is a truly independent voice with an opinion to express or, whether we’re dealing with Controlled Opposition. Exhibit “A” of what probably started as an independent voice, but got infiltrated and absorbed, was Alex Jones. Without a doubt, he is a highly-controlled agitator but, his rants are carefully designed to leave the listener with no outlet or ability to seek political remedy. That anger gets steered to his sponsors, like eFoods Direct and Midas Resources. Mongers of crappy food and overpriced gold. “Buy my crap and you’ll be safe from the New World Order!!!”
“The point of politics, as Bernie explained, is not to win elections; it’s to win change. But the odd thing is, he’s done both. Coming from nowhere, against the entire party establishment, backed by virtually none of the House members who now insist he sit down and shut up, he came within a whisker of winning the nomination. You would think they’d show, if nothing else, some respect for his political ability.
Especially since that political ability lies in making a deep, real connection with voters. When Democratic politicians jeer him, they jeer those voters, which is a kind of political malpractice. I doubt Bernie cares very much, but the rest of us care.
This is a strange, unpredictable election. Bernie is doing everything he can to make sure the Democrats win, because in 2016 that requires paying attention to the things people care about. The platform, thanks to Bernie, is strong, and it’s getting stronger. Strong enough, maybe, to rescue the very people who are booing.” –Bill McKibben
Bernie’s candidature must be put to a vote in a coming Democratic Convention, so the super-delegates will have to make a conscious decision if they want to implicate themselves by participating in Hillary’s Coup d’état.
Coup d’état is the illegal and overt seizure of a state power by the military or other elites within the state apparatus
I would like to point an interesting fact: Russia continues to rehearse the landing of the paratroopers over the North Pole. This is a demonstration of the capabilities – the path through the Arctic Ocean is the shortest not only for the missiles…
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Robert_H._Foglesong%2C_President_Bush%2C_and_Gen._Vladimir_Shamanov.jpg/1280px-Robert_H._Foglesong%2C_President_Bush%2C_and_Gen._Vladimir_Shamanov.jpg
That makes no sense. The ice cap in inherently unstable because there is no solid land underneath. It would make sense for Russian paratroopers to occupy northern Greenland or the northern Canadian islands.
Perhaps Russia can create a nuclear mine that is tied to the ocean floor at the North Pole and maintains constant radio contact with Moscow. It must be equipped with a hydrophone array to detect any submarine near it.
Nothing what Russians do ever makes any fucking sense to the Westerners, unless it’s too late.

The Global restructuring. Current moment.
It’s time to take the interim results of the global restructuring, which was initiated by the United States.
My model of what is happening:
1. With the development of information technology United States gradually began to lose control of the world trade.
2. For further US domination there is a need to rebuild trade ties in a “star configuration”, the center of which are American trading companies.
3. The global economic crisis was triggered by the US deliberately: goal is to take control of ocean freight as a material component of the trade relations.
4. To achieve the US goal should:
a) buy large ocean vessels and shipping companies at a low price
b) eliminate the possibility of rapid replenishment of merchant fleets of other countries by large vessels
c) organize chaos and riots in the “short” sea routs
d) deprive Russia of the possibility of organizing an alternative land transport channels.
As I see it, at the moment the strategy is suffering a fiasco due to Russia’s actions. The Americans had planned for Georgia and Ukraine to deal a blow along the Black Sea coast of Russia and turn it into a war zone with the subsequent spreading to the Volga-Don transportation hub.
These US plans for Russia were disrupted in 2008 – after the war of 080808 the Georgian army is guaranteed to receive a blow from the rear through the territory of South Ossetia.
In addition, the acute phase of the economic crisis of 2008-2009 has not provoked massive sales of merchant ships and companies – they had to stop the crisis and get into debt to solve the Russian problem.
Russia bought some time to modernize the armed forces and to establish an anti-American coalition with Asian countries, primarily China. The Americans at the same time decided to kill two birds with one stone – to go to the underbelly of Russia through Iran and pave the way for the riots and chaos on the route from the Bab el Mandeb to Gibraltar – they began to create ISIS.
When ISIS got battlefield and financially hardened, the United States once again bet on Ukraine – to create a naval base in Crimea in order to prevent the rear blow from Russia against ISIS from the Mediterranean coast. As a result of Russia’s actions in Crimea and subsequent operation in Syria USA plans were again thwarted.
While the US was working on ISIS, Russia and China have improved transport infrastructure. Pipelines, the Northern Sea Route, the Silk Road, the road to Vladivostok – the list goes on and on. China is expanding its capabilities in shipbuilding and has become a world leader in that area. All these measures are aimed at reducing dependence on ocean shipping and fast compensation of required number of ships in the case of the transfer of existing property to the US companies. And the probability of this is very, very high – BDI has dropped through the floor, the next wave of the crisis will finish off the carriers.
What do we have at the moment? The United States retreats to the next line of attack and erect a barrier to land transportation through Ukraine, Poland and the Baltic States. It starts hitting China in the South China Sea because of the creation of military infrastructure, protecting maritime routs. Without the destruction of land transport and shipbuilding channels globally all the US plans are meaningless and lead to the financial crisis and the collapse of the state!
The position of Russia and its allies – the possible US monopoly on maritime transport is countered; we are building alternative transport channels and protecting them.
The content of this week’s blog leads to this, the oligarchy does what it will. Period. That’s the way it is. I doubt if any of the people responsible for the Johnstown flood, for example, were punished for building a dam on a mountain and killing countless people who lived in the valley below when it broke.

After the tragedies of this past week, other truths come to mind. It is a hope that the world is running out of stuff to make guns.

After contemplation, the following adage came to mind from somewhere. Heaven knows how old it is.. ” It’s always darkest before the dawn!” Maybe the dawn is coming.
Thank you JHK for the great works of fiction and non-fiction, for infinite patience with your posters, for wise advice. “Be kinder”. One doesn’t usually regret kindness. Thank you Sylvia Browne for your work End of Days. What you write about Maria Esperanza, astonishing. That being written, WPA-CCC, we may not need some of the stuff in the Old Testament, but maybe this, from a prophetic book written by a Jewish man. From the first book ever published, The Lord will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places and make her wilderness like Eden, her desert like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness will be found in Her, thanksgiving and the voice of song. Isaiah 51.
Not a nutcase, just human, and privileged to be able to read, and wonder, know and have seen a glimpse. Even if it’s just a candle, the light will win out in the darkness.
They don’t awaken easily. And even when they do, they can never, ever admit that they had been wrong. Thus their immediate subconscious goal is to pretend they always knew.
In any case, she not anywhere near that yet. For now, she defends her beloved Sylvia and transfers her allegiance to wpa.
One often regrets kindness to the wrong people. You choose the Jews over the Palestinians, Women over Men, and everyone over Whites. You simply couldn’t be wronger.
“The Lord will comfort Zion”
Excellent! They sure as hell don’t need us, then, do they? Our issues in the Middle East involve Oil, and Israel was our proxy there since the ’50’s…time to bug out, I’d expect, as there is a long overdue accounting of cost to benefit regarding our support of Israel.
The price is just too high…glad they have other options.

The point of politics, as Bernie explained, is not to win elections; it’s to win change. – wpa quoting Bernie

I have a reputation in my family for making good predictions. My wife, in particular, always turns to me when she wants to know how some future event is going to turn out ever since I predicted the sex of our 3 kids in the era before ultra-sound was commonly used, namely boy, boy, girl. When I insisted with calm assurance that that third child would be a girl she was ecstatic and sure enough….
And I correctly predicted at least the last half dozen presidential elections. But this time (i.e. currently) my uncanny sixth sense has been clueless…. at least until about the last 12 hours. Now there seems to be a tiny whiff of something in the air that runs contrary to the common wisdom. When NYT Op-Ed columnist Maureen Dowd counter-intuitively comes down hard on Hillary like she did today one starts thinking maybe Trump could still pull off a Brexit-like dark grey swan.

Does Hillary take steroids?
“Many police officers are known to use steroids to beef up (see Hoberman, Testosterone Dreams (2005), but steroids also create an uncontrollable aggressive personality. I’m sure some blacks use them as well. Soldiers use them to beef up. I knew a guy, a civilian, who served some time in Iraq providing computer support, and he said steroid use is rampant among the troops. There are countless studies of athletes who use steroids going berserk. A couple of years ago a woman killed her husband in self defense. He had won the Olympic gold medal in 1984; his uncontrollable aggression was the result of years of steroid use. “
When I came to he country in 1988, I began to watch the Sunday political reviews and was impressed by their depth and skill with which they have presented the drama of American politics. I’ve even then come to the conclusion that political commentators have a real influence on the political life of the country.
Hillary Clinton started to pay attention to this area of American life right after she came to the White House in 1993 and almost immediately her deadening breath became palpable in the media, and as a result she is now committing a coup with nothing except control over the Fourth Estate and assassins of the special services. But long ago an old Eagle of the Mountain Nest of Alamut has proved that with the help of Assassins you can defeat regular armies, even while under the occupation.
But evil is such an acid that destroys the bottle containing it, and in 2014 the American Political Science from Science turned into the low-standard propaganda. In all the Clinton political commentary media involved some babes that describe political events in terms of gossip and seems to really believe that the victory of one candidate or another is determined by their manners and their ability to tie a tie. A few remaining truly analytical telecasts languish and learn the Aesopian language.
The best of these is undoubtedly the analytical programs “McLaughlin Group”,

but it stuck at 6 in the morning and only after the terrorist attack in Paris, they were brought back in Sunday primetime. In particular, today’s air, they began with a splash “No justice – no piece!” about how an American soldier shot the American police after the day before police shot two completely innocent black US citizens.
And while all the other Sundays political shows delved into the details of race relations, mostly afraid to say that there is a relationship of Dallas police shooting with the aforementioned murder of innocent blacks, McLaughlin quickly led to the thesis that at such a time the United States has a need in the FBI Director and Attorney General, who could be trusted, then immediately moved to the release of Hillary Clinton from any responsibility for her crimes by the present FBI Director and the US Attorney General.
But the most interesting thing is how he commented on the political events in the past weeks. The old man McLaughlin evidently got whacked over the head for the lack of political correctness in his arguments, and he went to Aesopian language.
Particularly towards the end he usually asks some provocative question and gives members of his group the opportunity to express all these points of view on this issue, which promote (not analyzed) politically correct political commentators in other programs, and then asks them to make predictions that seemed to be irrelevant to the subject under discussion, but in fact are the key to its understanding.
For example two weeks ago due to the beginning of the NATO exercises practically on the border with Russia, he gave all comments on this topic in the sense that “Russia must be stopped” and then asked his experts: “Do you think, whether the US Congress will vote to draft women to the army, “and he himself answered, that it will vote in favor, and the next major war the American women will be called into the US army. So he said to his compatriots: “Do you want a woman president – then do not complain when you are called into the army and sent to war, where you will be raped and killed”.

As a Russian immigrant you may be forgiven for not realizing that “The old man McLaughlin” died some time ago. It is his propped up corpse and fancy TV and cgi technology which makes it appear the corpse is reading questions and answers from a script. Buh bye!
Yeah I can’t believe that guy is still on TV, and still above ground. He must be at least 100.
Wow, just checked, he’s 89….. and still seems to have all his marbles. I enjoy his old fart curmudgeon shtick.
He is as old as Queen E2 by the way. Falling out of the chair on his show. Just like Reagan in the meetings.
The Free Market is a cruel and niggardly demigod that is not infallible. Left to itself, it destroys producers by driving prices down to where domestic manufacturing and farms go under. Markets for ag products require a regulated market to prevent such destruction. Price floors must be set for good quality. – JimInFL
=============
Two things:
1. Price controls never work in the longer term.
2. It’s unwise to use the word niggardly in this day and age.
Price controls are like a hospital for the market. A market that is never entirely out of rehab because, as I said before, The Free Market destroys domestic producers by driving prices down until they are gone.
Price controls fail when they are not applied in a holistic fashion. All bases have to be covered. Even the price controllers must discover what it takes for a producer to bring something to market and cover his labor costs. THAT sets the price; not figure out how high he can sell it OR… sell at a loss to drive his competition out of business.
I didn’t like the word, “niggardly,” but, it was the only one that seemed to fit the argument. If I could go back and edit it, I would use, “capricious,” instead.
Money and fire are equally destructive when allowed to run wild. Both must be contained and FORCED to work on behalf of their masters.
When you compare, side by side, a sociopath with a narcissist the American people will begin to accept that psychopathy really not all that bad. I mean really … you have to be a little nuts to want to be President … right?

Shame on you. You too Elrond and Kdog.

How rude of you, ma-am, not pc at all!
In one sentence you managed to express micro-aggression against immigrants, ethnic Russians and people of older age.
Black Lives Matter!
Raccoon Lives matter!
Est modus in rebus, sunt certi denique fines, quos ultra citraque negit consistere rectum. (Racist police, no justice, no peace!)
Something like that happened in Crimea:
