In case you don’t know what condition our condition is in, the name for it is a crisis of legitimacy. Four years of seditious harassment by a “Resistance” within-and-without the US Government culminates in the janky election of a mentally incapable grifter… run by whom? Does anyone seek to know who, exactly, is pulling Joe Biden’s strings? My guess would be…duh… Barack Obama and his posse. When will he be outed? Maybe today… or next week at the latest. Heads will explode to see liberalism’s bowling trophy fall off the national mantelpiece. If you think Nancy Pelosi is running around in a hebephrenic fugue state now, just wait.

A crisis of legitimacy means that citizens have lost faith in their institutions, that is, in the armature of agreements and procedures for running this society. Do you have any idea how much damage RussiaGate did to the country? The three-year-long mind-fuck perpetrated by the highest officials of the FBI and the CIA ruined whatever was left of their reputations. Not only are citizens not safe from the powers of life-and-death vested in these agencies, but they know that officials who wield that power recklessly won’t be held responsible when acting outside the law. Are we any better now than the Russians under Leonid Brezhnev?

UkraineGate and the first Trump impeachment it spawned was a CIA operation that used CIA agent Eric Ciaramella and Intel Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson (a former DOJ RussiaGate player) to cover up the influence-peddling crimes of Joe Biden’s family behind a smokescreen of perfidy fanned over the nation by the notorious RussiaGate liar, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA). The State Department assisted in that op, and now the whole country knows that they are also ethically unreliable.

In both of these gigantic flimflams, the president could not get any satisfactory scrutiny of the injuries attempted against him, because the ops were run by the very agencies needed to provide that scrutiny over unlawful official behavior. Did the DOJ and its stepchild, the FBI, show any interest in the recent voting irregularities, or is it just convenient to let it all slide so they can answer to a new president, with a clear and urgent interest in burying the matter?

Is it any wonder that a huge chunk of the population doesn’t believe the election was on-the-level? Federal law enforcement has not revealed the identities of exactly who incited the invasion of the Capitol building — and do you believe who The New York Times and CNN claim it was: white supremacist Nazis? Has it not occurred to the “winner” and his handlers that such a public mood of distrust will thunder through our national affairs going forward?

It’s late in the game but something appears to still be in play, and the Resistance is keenly aware of it: a trove of declassified documents laying out their crimes against their own countrymen. Nothing has stuck to the Resistance because they controlled the levers of adjudication. What if, under the extraordinary conditions of the moment, those levers are transferred to one arm of the government that has not disgraced itself: the military? I wrote in this blog more than once in recent years that political disorder could lead to this. Has that moment come?

Thousands of troops are billeted in and around Washington DC now. Why is that? The figment of more white supremacists coming to reenact last week’s incident at the Capitol? I don’t think so. A BLM / Antifa riot, like the ones staged in cities (including Washington DC) all through the summer and fall? (Weren’t they mostly peaceful?) Or is something else up, something that will mark an epochal shift in the fortunes of the USA?

Did you catch Joe Biden on TV last night? Did his appearance fill you with the sweet, warm unction of reassurance? Or did you get the impression that I got: of a near-mummy in a state of panicky confusion, sent from his hidey-hole out to a podium to give an impersonation of someone in authority? I didn’t believe the performance for a minute. The poor schlemiel is headed straight into history’s discontinued merchandise bin. He will probably wonder what awful vanity propelled him down the memory hole as he descends into the darkness… but his memory preceded him down the memory hole and he will have forgotten how the whole thing started. His exit will be a merciful one compared to the people who trussed him up and shoved him onstage to flesh out their lame narrative.

    Joe Biden: a virtual candidate elected in a virtual election, sworn-in via a virtual inauguration to preside over a virtual presidency. Virtually no one has physically attended any public event with him in attendance since 2019. See also ‘Wizard of Oz.’

    • hmuller January 15, 2021 at 11:15 am #

      You mention “The Wizard of Oz”, a classic in the art of unseen political manipulation. Glinda (aka the Good Witch of the North) maneuvers Dorothy’s house to fall on one witch, killing her. Then maneuvers Dorothy into murdering another witch. When the Kansas crybaby persuades the Wizard to leave Oz forever in order to take her home, the plan misfires.

      So Glinda tells the stranded Dorothy she could have gone home any time by clicking together her ruby red heels together.

      Why didn’t you tell me this earlier?

      Oh, you wouldn’t have believed me.

      Bullshit, you disingenuous, power hungry, glitter fairy!

      All this leaves Glinda large and in charge of Oz, supported by legions of woke, pint sized, singing supporters – no doubt promised more stimulus checks.

      So who is our Glinda? Hillary, Kamala, Michelle?

        And here all along I thought it was just a parable about the gold standard…

        • Yohannon January 15, 2021 at 1:03 pm #

          Glinda was the Gold, and all gold is fool’s gold when it comes to money. You understood, but only in part.

        • Blackbird January 15, 2021 at 1:42 pm #

          Or more widely, a parable about parasitic-capitalism: “I’ll sell you what you don’t need/already have – because I’ve convinced you that you will die screaming if you don’t have it – at a price that may cost you your life/soul.

      • Yohannon January 15, 2021 at 1:02 pm #

        Yes, not all that shines is gold. And not all that doesn’t shine is not gold. Glinda and her sister of the South were evil. The Witches of the North and South were good. Dorothy should have given those shoes back.

        Aragorn looked like nothing but a dirty ranger, but he was the heir of Elendil, the true King.

        The Deplorables are the True Americans, not the Southrons or Easterlings.

      Here is how far Biden/Harris and Co. are going to try to take us:

      https://notthebee.com/article/welp-here-we-go-la-public-schools-will-require-all-students-to-get-the-covid-vaccine

      If 40% of doctors and nurses are refusing the Covid 19 vaccine, how many parents will refuse to get their children an experimental vaccine with so many proven side-effects (including death).

      I hope thousands of parents refuse this edict and elect to homeschool their kids by suing the State of California for the money they need to educate their children.

      I hope they get the signatures they need to recall Newsom and elect a governor who will bring some sense to this state, especially when forcing minors to get a jab for a disease they are 99.9% guaranteed to survive.

      I feel like the powers that be are pushing and pushing and pushing until the straw WILL break the camel’s back and citizens will say, “That. Is. It.”

      Seriously. I feel a breaking point coming and soon.

    A crisis of legitimacy. That’s a good way of putting it.

  3. Disaffected January 15, 2021 at 9:43 am #

    Great post! I remember saying a year or two back on this very blog that the only thing that could save us would be a military coup. Extreme measure and one not to be taken lightly whatsoever, to be sure, but just as true as it ever was, I think. Recent events have proven that, yes, we’re at that point now. The damn civvies just ain’t up to the task anymore.

  4. NickelthroweR January 15, 2021 at 9:49 am #

    Greetings,

    If the very first thing your administration accomplishes is to borrow 2 trillion dollars and give it away just to pay down debt then the end can not be very far off.

    I am furious over this election and I have a strong desire to go fight something or someone over it but at the end of the day, these klowns will destroy themselves much faster than I could ever hope or help.

    The ONLY question to be resolved is this: What happens to the 100 million useless eaters? The long emergency has no place for them.

    • Beryl of Oyl January 15, 2021 at 9:51 am #

      Bill Gates has been buying up farmland in America. I’m sure there’s a plan.

      • akmofo January 15, 2021 at 10:07 am #

        The plan is to grow food exclusively for China. The Communist government has been buying huge tracks of farmland in Africa and Latin America Canada and now the US via its surrogates.

        • bluekayak January 15, 2021 at 10:14 am #

          They’ve got to ship it over a 1,000 miles by rail and truck before it even gets on a container ship… a lotta things can go wrong along the way… just sayin’…

          • akmofo January 15, 2021 at 10:22 am #

            If there’s one thing the Chinese know how to do well, is to do things under the radar. They completely took over Canada and nobody has even noticed.

          • akmofo January 15, 2021 at 10:27 am #

            Meaning, American food stuff will be shipped to our pals in Canada and from Canada their PM TrueDope® will ship it to China.

          • Paul January 15, 2021 at 1:06 pm #

            They won’t get mine! We tore up the tracks thirty years’ ago!

        • thirdcoastlegend January 15, 2021 at 10:20 am #

          Correct.

          Is Bill Gates the biggest US land owner?

          • Beryl of Oyl January 15, 2021 at 12:01 pm #

            I believe so, but I’d have to check that.
            This guy is a problem.

          • JMR January 15, 2021 at 1:20 pm #

            No, that would be the federal government. I’m sure he’s not far behind though.

          • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 15, 2021 at 1:39 pm #

            I believe Ted Turner owns a shitload of land as well.

          • Blackbird January 15, 2021 at 2:08 pm #

            Biggest owner of Farmland anyway…
            ForbesDotCom: “America’s Biggest Owner Of Farmland Is Now Bill Gates” – I got about 10 seconds of reading before the paywall came up…
            From “The Hill”: “Gates has accumulated 242,000 acres of farmland that stretches from Washington to Florida.” Louisiana: “nearly 70,000 acres”, Arkansas: 47,927 acres, Nebraska: 20,588 acres.

          • GreenAlba January 16, 2021 at 11:09 am #

            Not that I have any particular interest in Bill Gates, but I took the trouble to look up what his 242,000 acres of farmland represents in the context of total US farmland.

            So now 0.027% of my brain cells are troubled by this factoid.

            https://www.statista.com/statistics/196104/total-area-of-land-in-farms-in-the-us-since-2000/#:~:text=This%20statistic%20shows%20the%20total,decreased%20to%20899%20million%20acres.

            Recall that 0.027% is still 0.027%, whether it’s applied to Covid deaths or farmland owned by Bill Gates, so people can choose their level of anxiety accordingly, but try to be consistent. Perhaps.

          • Yohannon January 16, 2021 at 12:06 pm #

            Middle aged women are going into uncontrollable and Unceasing (add italics) spasms after taking the vaccine. But don’t worry (or care), it’s only a few.

          • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 16, 2021 at 12:14 pm #

            Alba – I must admit I too would expect the larget farmland owner in the US to own much more than that. Not exactly a takeover.

          • GreenAlba January 16, 2021 at 1:28 pm #

            MrMango

            Indeed. In fact I think Mr Gates would do well not to buy up too much of his country’s farmland – and if anyone ever needed a bit of good PR it’s Mr G, since he seems to get the blame for all the world’s ills (I make no judgement on this as I simply haven’t followed his doings closely enough).

            If he’s got some spare cash, though, perhaps he could buy up some of those meat-processing plants I’ve seen and read about, and clean them up a bit. They need some PR too. Some of them are enough to turn a person vegan. 🙂

          • GreenAlba January 16, 2021 at 3:53 pm #

            Janos

            “Middle aged women are going into uncontrollable and Unceasing (add italics) spasms after taking the vaccine. But don’t worry (or care), it’s only a few.”

            Is that one of those ‘I’ll have what she’s having’ moments?

            I don’t expect to be offered it for months. Hubby’s getting it next Wednesday, so if he goes into an uncontrollable – and possibly italicised – spasm, because of his allergy thingy, I promise to let you know, in the interests of transparency.

            In the meantime, over 3 million people have had the vaccine administered in the UK and we don’t seem to be overwhelmed by adverse reactions. And deaths from the hoax itself are running at around 1200-1300/day. So people can make their own minds up.

            I’ll still be at risk of catching the hoax through my husband’s work, but will get no help from his vaccination, as it seemingly doesn’t affect transmissibility. Perhaps it will lower viral loads among the vaccinated. One can only hope.

          • hmuller January 16, 2021 at 4:28 pm #

            GA, it just seems to me comparing Bill Gate’s farmland ownership to any covid related statistic is irrelevant and useless. You’re comparing apples (not to oranges) but to aardvarks.

            Example:

            Once a year my paperboy mistakenly leaves the Guardian on the neighbor’s doorstep. Oh well, that’s one of the risks of urban living.

            Once a year a syphilitic, escaped convict breaks into my home and rapes me. Oh well, that’s one of the risks of urban living.

          • GreenAlba January 16, 2021 at 4:58 pm #

            I’d be tempted to agree with you, hm, if only because Bill Gates’ farm ownership presumably hasn’t killed lots of people. 🙂

          • hmuller January 16, 2021 at 7:27 pm #

            Maybe Bill Gates knows a lot of people and has inside information on what you call “climate change”. Maybe he knows food will be going up in price and relative value, i.e. the earth’s inhabitants will be spending a larger percentage of their income on food in the future because less will be grown..

            There are some who say the sun is going thru a cooling period and temperatures will be dropping. Maybe you’ve noticed a cold spell here and there lately? https://www.youtube.com/c/Adapt2030/featured

          • GreenAlba January 17, 2021 at 7:05 am #

            hm

            I’ve posted information before about why the current warming isn’t driven by solar changes. I can post it a tenth time if you want me to, but there’s really no point because you won’t read it.

            As for Bill Gates’ hypothetical preparations for ‘what I call climate change’, there’s really no point either in discussing something you don’t think is an issue anyway. If it isn’t happening, we don’t need to worry about the land, do we? And the point remains that 0.027% is still just 0.027%.

            BTW, did you object equally strongly to T. Boone Pickens buying up water rights so that he could sell water to thirsty American cities? He saw something coming too. Although it didn’t work out quite as he planned.

          • GreenAlba January 17, 2021 at 7:07 am #

            And I’ve been noticing cold spells all my life.

            It’s patterns that matter, not spells, hot or cold.

            Global warming brings extremes. All sorts of extremes. More energy in the system means more extremes.

          • hmuller January 17, 2021 at 10:56 am #

            Oh, it’s about more extremes, GA. So if it’s too cold, too hot, too wet, too dry, too windy, too calm; if there’s any kind of weather at all, you are proven correct. Now I understand.

          • hmuller January 17, 2021 at 11:06 am #

            And of course the unproven theory that the sun has a major impact on the earth’s climate – pure right wing conspiracy theory. Disregard it. Toss it down the memory hole.

          • GreenAlba January 17, 2021 at 1:19 pm #

            hm

            I don’t think I treat your posts with the level of disrespect that you show for mine.

            “Oh, it’s about more extremes, GA. So if it’s too cold, too hot, too wet, too dry, too windy, too calm; if there’s any kind of weather at all, you are proven correct. Now I understand.”

            No, you clearly don’t. What you’ve said means nothing, proves nothing, but is a typical straw man. Not worth arguing with.

            “And of course the unproven theory that the sun has a major impact on the earth’s climate – pure right wing conspiracy theory. Disregard it. Toss it down the memory hole.”

            I didn’t say that at all. That’s what I mean by disrespect.

            How could the sun not have a major impact on the earth’s climate? I wouldn’t even insult straw men by including that among their number.

            In the meantime, for those who are not of bad faith, here is why the sun is not considered to be the driver of the current iteration of global warming, even though it continues to warm our amazing globe every single day …

            Tenth time. Probably.

            I’m hoping this won’t go on and on … I am aiming to keep my comments to single figures these days, although I sometimes fail . 🙂

            I don’t know why a comment about Bill Gates taking over American farmland ended up here anyway. Seems to me you might have been aiming at a little provocation, hm?

            It certainly wasn’t me who brought up the climate topic, since I consider it an utter waste of time.

          Well if they took over Canada they didn’t take over much just an off-shoot of England, and they ain’t much either. China does what most other countries do they buy food from others even the U.S.A. when they ain’t having a mental break down .

          Haven’t thoroughly looked into their background, but the Arbor Day Foundation will give you a bunch of trees (for a $12 “donation”) – suitable for your area. Don’t remember the specifics, but a few Norway spruce (not a native, but considerate, not invasive), great windbreak – the deer don’t eat them like they do my favored white cedar, dogwood (hallelujah, we will be delivered from winter after all!), lilac (again, pushing the immigrants, but his one beautifully scented and perfectly situated to fill the gap in the lilac hedgerow between me and the road). So, if in an area already heavily compromised, and afflicted by harsh winter winds, that doesn’t sound like a bad deal. Of course I expect to be demoralized by subsequent revelations…

          • rainmaker January 15, 2021 at 2:36 pm #

            I salute the Arbor Day Foundation, probably one of the cleanest charities around. I live in the jungles of Missouri. The problem here is not needing more trees, it’s fighting them off so that they don’t swallow your house! If it weren’t for lawnmowers you’d have to hack your way to your front door with a machete.

            They are a good organization after reading JHK’s Long Emergency, I decided I needed food producing plants, trees, bushes. They had great recommendations for fruit and nut tree for my cold region of Western NY. The bushes, tress came in good shape and are doing well for my modest price they charged me.

        When schools shut down last spring, feeding the kids on the free meals program was as big a concern as continuing their classes online.

        The classrooms may have been closed, but the kitchens were up and running. Most districts continued meal service (breakfast, lunch, and after school snack) via family pick up at the school or delivery by school bus in rural districts. The cafeteria ladies (and gents) showed up and got ‘er done, well into summer.

        Not sure how much of the covid relief money went to food programs, but it was a lot. And guess who all those dollars eventually trickled up to? The usual Big Ag players.

        Has anyone pondered just how much styrofoam carry out containers have gone in the trash since last March? Not to mention cups, wraps, bags, plastic flatware, etc. Depressing as hell.

    I don’t know if it’s our persistence or not, but it looks as if those of us who actually still care about the president are getting through, with the advice to declassify everything.

    You’d be surprised at how much resistance this has been met with, even from “conservatives”.

    If it is humanly possibly to declassify a document, President Trump, being a human, certainly can do it.

    He just needed to stop listening to the wrong people.

    He’s still listening to the wrong people, when it comes to pardoning Edward Snowden and Julian Assange.

            Here is what I ask people:

            Do you oppose the national security state?
            Do you oppose undeclared forever wars of choice?
            Do you oppose global crony corporate/banking interests that restrict competition, create barriers to entry and buy governments?
            Do you favor economic policies that promote Main Street over Wall Street?

            If they provide the correct answers they can call themselves whatever they want, I’ll work with them. Disagreements in other areas can be put on hold until we end the Empire and restore the republic.

I told my husband recently that elected officials need to become afraid of their voters… not necessarily in a violent way but perhaps by protesting in front of their homes as was done to Josh Hawley. They need to know that there are consequences for their actions.

        It’s not the choosing so much as it’s the waiting too long to jettison them when it becomes clear that they have no redeeming qualities.

        He likes to bring out the good in unlikely candidates. Ironic for someone who used that snake story in his campaign.

        Someone who cares about him said that his problem is that he gives these people chances, when they don’t play that way.

        His worst decision was his allowing Dr. Fauci and the rest of that crew of “experts” into the White House.

        He did not choose them, VP Pence did, but what they were pushing should never have been signed off on by any American president, and he went all in for it.

        That was a mistake. A yuge one. What was worse is how he was repeatedly urged to rectify that error, by firing these people, but he still kept them in the driver’s seat.

        There was simply no excuse for that, not after it became clear to him what they were.
        Which it did, or he never would have chosen Dr. Scott Atlas to add to the task force.
        So we had the bizarre situation of a task force issuing conflicting information.

        We talk about censorship. Big Tech for some reason has a position on the Coronavirus, and want to suppress any science to the contrary.
        But many Trump supporters, I have found, wanted to suppress the truth that the president allowed this horror show to gain a foothold in this country, he not only didn’t oppose it, he facilitated it, it it was very much a factor in his losing the election.

        Nobody wants the truth. If more of us had acknowledged the president’s very wrong turn, we perhaps could have gotten him to reverse it in time.

        • Yohannon January 15, 2021 at 12:11 pm #

          You don’t believe in the Steal? I do, but I agree his handling of the Covidian Cult has been insane. He let these people get a huge head start and then he jumped in with both feet in order to try to outdo them in the narrative olympics.

          Saying stop the testing before he bothered to say the testing is fake was simply insane.

        • MaryV January 15, 2021 at 12:46 pm #

          It just exasperates me that he had Dr. Atlas – a guy who saw through the scamdemic – as an advisor. Yet he’s gone, and Fauxci remains. Yes I agree: YUGE mistake. He should have refused to go along with the global plandemic.He could have exposed the whole thing for what it is.

    Great post. But I don’t know how President Trump is going to get all of that information out, how it can poke through the walls of disinformation, lies, and obfuscation — let alone blatant cover ups. Or simply be ignored and unpublished by the media. The alt media may not be enough.

    I hope it works. But I think that the Resistance has things sewn up. Too many culpable desperate people in too many halls of government at too many levels.

    My fear, anyhow…

  7. Perimetr January 15, 2021 at 9:55 am #

    In a fascist corporate state where the President is prevented from using social media and the “news” will not report factual stories (e.g. Hunter Biden’s laptop) that go agains the official narrative of the deep state, how much difference will declassifying documents make?

    How can anyone who believes in the Constitution or the Republic not hope that Trump would initiate mass arrests against those who rigged the presidential election — including the CIA and foreign officials who facilitated overseas vote switching. But wait, there is “no evidence of voter fraud”, just ask the papers of record, the NY Times and the Washington Post, just ask all the corporate news outlets, including the “conservative” Fox News.

    We all love your writing, Mr. Kunstler, and we probably all return here more than once to reread your columns because they have given us some faint hope that *finally* justice might be done, the Constitution and the Republic saved/restored while the criminals running the government and the media could be brought to justice. But that faint hope is fading, is it not? The troops surrounding the capitol are the National Guard, under the control of the Democratic governor, not Trump.

    The silencing of dissent prevents us from hearing from General Flynn or Sidney Powell. Not a single ‘high court” in the US would allow the massive evidence of vote rigging to be heard! Congress is completely bought and sold, just as is the judiciary. All dissent goes down the memory hole, just as will any declassified documents.

    I pray to God that I am wrong, but I don’t see any evidence that the “hammer is about to fall” on the criminal cabal of globalists who are about to start their “cleansing” process against more than half the population who voted for and spoke out for Trump. That would probably include you, too, sir.

    • Zoltar January 15, 2021 at 10:23 am #

      Per:

      I agree entirely with both your sentiments and your conclusion. Our nation has been completely captured by an alliance of governmental and corporate power, which is the definition, of course, of fascism.

      Military officers became such because they are committed to following orders, and I don’t believe their orders next week will be coming from Mr. Trump.

      Given the impressive efficacy of today’s government/corporate propaganda, and the immense resources of our militarized police forces I don’t believe any sort of meaningful resistance – with hopes of actually bringing about fundamental change – will be possible until collapse has robbed the powers that be of their advantage.

      And then change will be local or, at most, regional, with wildly different outcomes, depending upon where you live.

      • Yohannon January 15, 2021 at 12:15 pm #

        No, Fascism adores the nation, history, and traditions of the Nation. Do these people love any of that? This is Globalism, or Plutocratic Totalitarianism.

        No viable political philosophy thinks the public and private spheres can be kept separate in the industrial state. That’s a given. But there are other questions from there. Like, Which dominates? And to what end?

          Maybe our traitorous elite have gotten something different than what they bargained for? They consider our people and culture to be despicable. The Chinese consider theirs to be wonderful. So who is going to dominate? A National Socialist can respect a National Socialist of another land and culture. But respect a traitor to his land and culture? Never. They will have to bow to the new order as second class citizens since race is part of National Socialism.

      Last night John Solomon was on with Sean Hannity and he was discussing how The New York Times and The Washington Post had revealed that Intel knew the attack on the Capitol had been planned for weeks mainly by (the irony!) organizing on Fakebook.

      Intel told the House and Senate Sargeants at Arms that there was confirmed intel that rioters were planning to attempt to storm the Capitol. So the Sargeants at Arms begged Pelosi and McConnell for the National Guard to be brought in for extra security but they said no because they “didn’t like the optics”!

      Here is the kicker to this: President Trump was not given this Intel, according to Solomon.

      If this is all true, it means a trap was set for Trump and his supporters.

      They knew Trump would be asking those at his White House speech to go to the Capitol and the “rioters” broke away from the event a half an hour before it ended to make their way to the Capitol.

      Interesting too that both Sargeants at Arms were either fired or resigned.

    Mr Kunstler, I’ve looked at the paintings you exhibited in your gallery and I have to say they do invite one to pause for a while; they have that impressionist touch reminiscent of the 19th Century French painters. Just wondering: why don’t you do some surrealist works along the lines of Max Ernst or Salvador Dali, which portray and satirize our world’s current plight in art the way your blogs do that in words? Think that would be great. Max Ernst’s Europe After the Rain is a great example of that sort of art.

And the man who carries this mirror in his pack will be accused by you of being immoral! His mirror shews the mire, and you blame the mirror!

      “Our culture is surreal enough.” JHK

      Indeed.

      Artistic surrealism died in the early 1930s, to be replaced by a grim, sober, sometimes sarcastic realism in poetry and novels. I’m not as well-versed on painting during this period, but different artistic genres have more-or-less overlapped at other times.

      Satire, as SomeoneInAsia desires, is still alive, but it’s extremely difficult these days. How can you one-up the current outrageous reality? The Babylon Bee, as smart as it is, reads like the expected next-step news.

          Surely you meant martial law, (as in rule by the military), not “marshal law,” which would be Rule by Marshal Dillon. LOL….

          In any event, I don’t see it happening. If Trump wanted to impose martial law and invoke the insurrection act and do a lot of other extreme actions to deal with these Deep State asshats, he should have done it last Summer when they were so clearly in the wrong allowing Antifa and BLM to destroy city after city.

          It’s just too damn late now for last-minute heroic action. Especially in light of the fact that Trump has now been successfully demonized as the greatest threat to American democracy since Adolph Hitler and Joseph Stalin.

    The Market Ticker guy has made a very clear summation of exactly what went on at the Capitol. This is what we knew from the start, that it was a setup.

    What disturbs me about this is how many people not on the media side were fast to blame not just President Trump, but his supporters, whom they seem to hate with a passion.

    Maybe it was the sight of so many grown men, willing to drop everything at a moment’s notice, to stand up for a man and a cause they believed in.

    The 20,000 NG in DC are just there for show; more olive-drab theatrics of the type we’ve been treated to since 9/11. Absolutely nothing will happen; the freakshow of January 6 served its purpose — justifying a further expansion of the omnipresent “Securitate” and pushing the narrative of an ever-present threat of White supremacist insurgents (now that the Islamic terror threat seems a bit long in the tooth).

    The Great Trumpkin has proved himself to be a feckless, self-absorbed spoiled brat, ever ready to leave his supporters twisting in the wind and holding the bag. The best historical analogue is probably that “Bonnie Prince Charlie”, scurrying away dressed as a woman while the highlanders got sliced to ribbons by the redcoats.

      I don”t know where HJK is getting his info. Maybe 4 chan or 8 chan or Qanon chan. I think he’s been compromised. We’ll probably soon hear him on Newsmax or Fox news. I believe the election was on the level unless you say all voter absentee ballots were illegitimate (including Trumps) because of states changing rules due to Covid 19. Read about some of the nuts they arrested already and tell me they don’t have a screw loose. As of this moment they are saying the some of the Capitol mob were intending on assassinating some members of Congress. How the riot took place with all the scanning of social media sites is still unknown. One man was on a domestic terrorist watch list. I guess they didn’t watch him too good. Also not word from the Trumpy or that buffoon Guliani about the 6 dead besides putting the flag at half staff.

      • SoftStarLight January 15, 2021 at 10:46 am #

        You believe the election was on the level. So what do you think about that coordinated “stop” in the counting in the five swing states in the early morning hours on Nov 4? That has never happened before. But the reality is that you believe what you want to believe. What about the 47 people murdered during the BLM/Antifa riots in the summer? Are Kamala and Joe directly responsible for those murders since they supported groups that bailed out rioters and since the supported the riots?

      • jeff2002 January 15, 2021 at 11:16 am #

        And others arrested were confirmed Antifa folks that infiltrated the group. Then there are the videos all over Twitter of police calmly opening the barriers to let in the mob, and people inside the Capitol handing WOOD BATS to people outside, which they used to break windows. The videos don’t lie. There’s much more to this story than what you see through the selective lens of mainstream news.

        • Redneck Liberal January 15, 2021 at 1:40 pm #

          • Redneck Liberal January 16, 2021 at 2:22 pm #

            Benr – the simplest explanation is probably the correct one. How many off-duty LEOs from adjacent States have been identified already?

            But it wasn’t only LEOs collaborating. These new QAnon congresswomen (and who else?) giving reconnaissance tours the day before are collaborators too.

          • Redneck Liberal January 16, 2021 at 2:29 pm #

            Benr – usually, the simplest explanation is the correct one.
            How many LEOs have been identified? These people are from adjacent states and further afield. I’m not surprised…the Trump Virus has been spreading for 5 years, and since October, there’s been a spike in intensity.

            But the in-house collaborators – yet to be identified but quite likely the new QAnon congressional seats – are even more at fault.

            However, this doesn’t fit your narrative which goes something like …”The whole thing was a set-up! Antifa led the riot and did all the damage. The FBI kept the intelligence from the President, so he didn’t know he was sending them to their doom. We’ve been framed!”. All a bit desperate & snowflakes to me.

      You are wrong! The NG are there to intimidate. They are there to send the message that the Deep State is in control of this country and nobody better think or act otherwise.

      The inauguration is the key. Once we get one news cycle beyond the inauguration, their hope is everything will fade away and the Uniparty will be in control. Chances are 90% right now they are right.

      Once in control, Amerika is born.

      Four years later!

      If Hillary had won, this takeover would have occurred in 2017.

      I do not understand how the trolls on this blog can favor the loss of their nation. Shaking my head.

      Once the inauguration is in place, you are going to see a governmental takeover of just about everything. The exodus of corporations will happen when the new tax laws are passed. The collapse bandied about will occur when two things happen

      1. The government finds it has no resources to keep the gimmes in flat screen TVs. This will be ironic as the rich folks that are going to fund all their spending will be long gone, driven away by their tax stupidity.

      2. The Boomers and the following generation retirees want their money from their bonds. There is no money.

      Boom.

        Some years ago, the National Guard was taken from the command of the various governors of states and put directly under the control of the Army and Airforce, and ultimately under the command of the Commander-in-Chief.. They are now the United States National Guard and considered reserve troops of those branches. I remember being slightly alarmed at the time, and opposed that change. I don’t forget much, if I’ve paid any attention to it. I have every confidence they are in DC with Trump’s approval. And such a lot of them too–intimidating indeed, but who is the object of their intimidation? Good, sensible souls, I don’t imagine any of Trumps base is planning on touching that. I do hear that BLM was rioting in front of congress this past Wednesday, though I didn’t hear it on MSM.

        I was married to a man who was career Navy. I know something of the military and I don’t for one second believe they are willing to be bent over and cornholed by the chicoms through their cats paw, Joe Biden. I read a week ago or so, that Xi had ordered the PLA to war footing. They are to be ready at a moment’s notice. For what threat? I can’t believe they would view Obama running a shadow administration for his own purposes, either.

        I imagine organizing the seizure of all main actors in this coup is taking a good deal of planning and coordination. Meanwhile, many of the worst are trapped in DC, right where they are wanted, making bootless attempts at getting things back on track. I imagine a lot of desperate negotiation are going on behind the scenes.

      Me too. My first time to participate in the grand facade of “democracy” was in 1980. It was such a pleasure to my 18-yr old self back then to “fire” Jimmy Carter.

      The joy of voting in elections has consistently declined with every subsequent election cycle since as it became increasingly clear that the UniParty elites continue doing whatever the hell they damn well want and the people be damned.

      After 40 years of this bullshit I’ve concluded in 2020 that elections are for rubes and always have been. But at least in the past the PTB at least *pretended* that the people ruled this country. Not anymore. The fig leaf is long gone and all pretense has been cast away.

    Of course Sniffer/Grifter Joe is a walking dead Zombie as anyone can clearly see. The more important question is, Who or What is pulling the strings?

    The answer to the What is clearly the Deep State, but that is hardly a unified Power. It consists of 14 Spook Agencies, mad billionaires like the late Sheldon Anderson, and Malignant Overlords like the Zootbug, Crazy Bill Gates, and Gengis Bezos.

    But even Malignant Overlords need underlings to pull the strings and distribute bribes. I’d suggest that Team Obama is the prime suspect for that role.

    Remember that the new President in Waiting Harris was so hated during the Primary contests that she could hardly buy a vote? From which she emerged as the most likely victor in the race for Figurehead. Who paid for that transformation from an ugly caterpillar covered with jizz to a shining butterfly soon to occupy a glittering throne? Team Obama was her financial angel during those dark days when she was being dragged naked through the mud by Tulsi Gabbard. And I suspect their ongoing support/ownership is the key to where she is today. In politics such loyalty is the sign of ownership, not of virtue.

    Jim wrote: “It’s late in the game but something appears to still be in play, and the Resistance is keenly aware of it: a trove of declassified documents laying out their crimes against their own countrymen. Nothing has stuck to the Resistance because they controlled the levers of adjudication. What if, under the extraordinary conditions of the moment, those levers are transferred to one arm of the government that has not disgraced itself: the military?

    It’s all wishful thinking as it’s NOT going to happen. It would have happened a LONG, LONG time ago. If Trump really wanted to stir the proverbial pot he would have pardon Julian Assange. Assange along with his pals would then have been given the okay to dig up all the behind the scenes hanky-panky that was going on the last 4 years courtesy of The Swamp and Deep State.

    Instead, Trump decided to stay quiet. Now the Swamp and Deep State are back to running the show and there is a 0% chance they are going to allow anything to get in their way. They also have the Main Stream Media in their back pocket.

    The protest that did get out of hand on January 6th is being treated like the storming of the Bastille. As far as I can tell, no one was armed and the damage (which was wrong) was minimal and Congress finished certifying the election by 4am on the 7th. When the mayor issued a 6pm curfew, the crowd peacefully dispersed. When did BLM or Antifa obey a curfew and peacefully disperse? Yet that’s never mentioned.

        Even though I’m not a real estate investor I have to wonder about what happens to people or companies who own apartments and rent houses if there’s a moratorium on paying rent. How do they make THEIR mortgage payments to the bank? Is this a under- the- radar grab by bigger investors to buy property for pennies on the dollar from the original owners?

        • bluekayak January 15, 2021 at 11:17 am #

          A cascading series of bailouts — renters; then landlords, then banks, then? At the end of the day the federal government (probably through GSA’s like FANNY and FREDDY) will essentially “own” everything. These “assets” in turn will be monetized and acquired by the Federal Reserve in order to support the outlandish borrowing and money printing that’s going on. Eventually, the Fed will liquidate its holdings (at a deep discount, natch), to insiders like BlackRock, who will be the neo-feudal lords of the cicada-hash eating deplorables.

Yet security cameras have to cover every square inch of the Capital so if there was wide spread violence, why are these pictures not shown?

        I don’t think the crowd surging into the building was right and five people needlessly died and that cannot be brushed aside. An investigation into the events by Congress would be pointless as the very people who are in charge are determined to make a bad situation even worse.

        • Yohannon January 15, 2021 at 12:37 pm #

          Three of those were ordinary medical issues. The two criminal cases: was the security or cop shooting Ashli Babitt and a guy throwing a fire extinguisher and hitting a cop in the head, who later died. These need to be investigated carefully. But since the cop was Black and Babitt a Deplorable, he’ll walk. The other guy will probably do twenty to life.

            The officer that shot Ashli Babitt was intentionally trying to kill her. Murder. The person that threw the extinguisher, (my opinion) was not trying to kill someone and just commited a horribly negligent action. It’s not like he had the officer on the ground bashing his head in. Another thing I don’t get is the “Hero” thing. I almost got killed a few times at work. I got paid fairly well for that. If I got killed in a flashover,(been in a couple) oh well bad luck. I certainly would not like to be called a hero for simply doing my job to serve the public. Wrong place right time.Or is it right place wrong time?

    • Sean Coleman January 15, 2021 at 11:48 am #

      According to Gustave Le Bon in The Madness of Crowds (or whatever it was called, 1895), from memory, the mob did not know what it wanted to do. I am not sure they had even set out for the Bastille, where hardly anyone was imprisoned anyway. The governor of the gaol came out and surrendered. They held him without knowing what to do next. Then a butcher’s apprentice appeared on the scene and they got him to cut his head off with his knife before parading it aimlessly through the city.

      So there was a gap between story and reality even back then. I was listening earlier to French historian Reynald Secher talking about the Revolutionary government’s wicked suppression of the Vendée rising in the west of France (1793-4). The Committee of Public Safety (Robespierre) gave the order, and the Assembly approved (1 August 1793), to wipe out the region. He says at least 117k were killed and it was probably as many as 150k, 70% of them children, women and the old. He says it was the only case of genocide carried out government using legal means, or something like that. Even Pol Pot or Stalin did not do that, he says.

      Committee of Public Safety: has a contemporary ring doesn’t it?

      • SW January 15, 2021 at 12:11 pm #

        Robespierre was a man before his time! But he showed a real Orwellian flare naming his committee of assassins before dispatching them to stop those dangerous peasants in their tracks. Depending on guaranteed basic income from the government with plenty of strings attached and restrictions in place will likely stop all dissent here. Perhaps the Committee of Public Compliance.

        Thanks for the information — I had never heard about that genocide.

        • Sean Coleman January 15, 2021 at 6:30 pm #

          One of the interesting things about the story is that it was buried until 1985. I think a document of Babeuf’s turned up (my French is pretty basic) which supported it and Secher then dug up a lot more documents. He says that 95% of his evidence is from the Republicans themselves. It had been completely written out of history and the rising was put down to the local nobility seeking to preserve their priviliges – the usual rubbish.

          i have been looking into bits of history here and there in the last few years: Spanish Civil War, the Enlightenment (especially Voltaire), the French Revolution; Solzhenitsyn on the Jews in Russia and the blackening of the Tsarist ‘regime’. The Copernican Revolution. And others I cannot think of.

          E Michael Jones is very good at filling in some of the gaps. And I discovered Matthew Raphael Johnson fairly recently. I had already come to the conclusion that history has to be written again from start to finish but he has already done a good bi on that. I could attempt a list of the myths he has burst (and I have not covered them all yet) but it would take too long. But let’s just take China. Johnson has pointed out the recent Hong Kong riots, the Opium Wars (in this case, who organized and benefited financially – I won’t say here), the Rape of Nanking (all the contemporary evidence shows nothing of the sort; fake photos and accounts – all done, of course, very clusmsily). And the Tianman Square massacre that never was. Chang and Halliday in their biography of Mao add many more, including the so-called heroic Long March. I studied American – Chinese hisory as part of my history degree and read, among other books, Edgar Snow’s wartime Red Star Over China, portraying Mao’s band as heroes. He must have been either deluded or in collusion.

            I remember reading the Opium Wars were instigated by Great Britain for the noble purpose of flooding China with opium and lining the pockets of merchants selling it. And of course, the land grab of Hong Kong worked out well for them too.

            When I was in Eastern Europe about ten years ago our guide was a young Croatian man who had relatives who now live in Germany. He told me after WW2 his German relatives were forced from their home and marched back to Germany with many dying along the way. I had never heard about that and have only seen one obscure article since then. I have no idea what the history shows, if anything.

It was an extraordinary departure getting the Christian Victorians to acquiesce in forcing China to allow its citizens to become junkies in order to boost exports from British India.

            When I studied history at school one of the topics briefly touched on was the Don Pacifico affair, where Palmerston used gunboats to protect British citizens (yes, Don P., like the Sassoons, was a British citizen, at least in name). I wondered why the teacher covered it, as it was not central (as I thought) to the course. If he just dropped it in so it could be remembered in later life I do not know (the teacher was an Irish priest).

            The treatment of Germans after the war is almost completely neglected (there we go again, like the Vendée they treid not to rememer).

            This just reminds me of French writer Bernard Lugan who wrote about the alleged massacre of Algerians in France one night in 1961 or 62. They werer portesting peacfullly (ha had) on a Parisian bridge and hundreds were thrown off by the French police or military to drown. There are no records in the morgue there or other reliable evidence (he says). He referred to similar massacres of Germanreugees s in Czechoslovakea in 1945 who were also thrown off a bridge by partisans and their bodies were washed up in their dozens or so downriver, but no such thing happened on the Seine.

            I am interested from what might be called a psychological point of view about how everyone can believe stories unsupported by evidence and often ridiculously lurid.

          • Sean Coleman January 16, 2021 at 12:59 pm #

            The argument is that the Opium Wars generated vast sums of cash, which changed the whole dynamic, or greatly accelearted it, and in a bad, corrupting way. I suppose the governments from then on were beholden to their paymasters. That is the argument anyway, I do not know much about it.

            It reminds me of what is said to have happened after the dissolution of the monasteries in England where great financial wealth was made available suddenly. (Raymond crotty argued that that wealth was lost in the bogs of Ireland, the cost of pacifying that unfortuate country.)

    • MaryV January 15, 2021 at 12:59 pm #

      It was a false flag, the purpose was twofold (or more): 1) stop the evidence of election fraud to be read by people who were slated to present it, and intimidate them out of doing so (which happened); 2) use the so-called ‘terrorist attack’ to paint all Trump supporters are domestic terrorists, and then use that as the impetus for the Domestic Terrorism Act the Democrats are trying to pass.

      A win-win for the Dems and their deep state handlers.

      • May Hem January 15, 2021 at 11:33 pm #

        I agree. This recent non-event is simply another side show, designed to fool people into believing there are actually two parties participating in a democracy.

        There has only ever been one party and the rest is acting.

        Trump has played his agreed part and is now probably relaxing and enjoying his large pay-off.

        And what might be happening under all this distraction?

      • Blackbird January 15, 2021 at 3:50 pm #

        I don’t want Trump to run again, or any of his dynasty: Ivanka, Jared, Barron – Tiffany if imprisonment knocks out the top tier – crazy. We need somebody who can not only Talk the Talk, but Walk the Walk. You can’t do that in designer heels.

        I don’t want Trump to run again – but I don’t think there is any legal basis to exclude him, if there were (and it were enforced) most of our government at all levels would be out of office and in jail. (Might be a fair trade actually…)

        In his four years as representative of The Deplorables, Trump’s most lasting achievement has been to make patriotic, law-abiding Americans the target of state-sanctioned discrimination and violence for the next four years – at least.

        I don’t think we can count on anyone above us to reach down to pull us into the ark.

        • MaryV January 15, 2021 at 10:28 pm #

          Sorry – the Democrats did that all by themselves. Trump incited no violence. The Democrats drummed up hatred for 4 years, culminating in actual mental breakdowns of their supporters. Now those people can’t even hold conversations, much less critical ideas.

          Trump didn’t start any wars, bottom line, and didn’t remove any of our rights. Obama removed what remained of them. So pfffft on your ignorance and also your ill-deserved condescension of half the country. That makes you ignorant.

          • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 16, 2021 at 11:07 am #

            MaryV – I agree with your overall point about liberals digging their own holes and creating a massive divide…

            But as far as Trump not being involved in aiding the growth of some of that divide (at the very least indirectly or unintentionally), I’m not so sure.

            His often baffling tweets and blunt statements were amusing (and occasionally agreeable) to many of us leaning right, but they did little to make his largely law-abiding patriotic base look good to the other half of the country.

            I thoroughly expected some of the raw bluster to become instantly more polished and carefully edited after he took office (even if in a noticeably awkward way like with Dubya)…and while like I said above I found it amusing and kind of fresh that he chose not to change his outward communication style at all…many on the left would have at least felt some comfort in him acting “more presidential”.

            So now his supporters, whether they agreed with only 5% of how he presented himself to the world as our President, are being lumped in with everything he ever said or did as far as public opinion goes.

            That was his biggest mistake in my view. If he’d played the role a little more traditionally, while still pushing the envelope when necessary, he’d have won a second term.

        • Redneck Liberal January 16, 2021 at 2:45 pm #

          ’ I don’t want Trump to run again – but I don’t think there is any legal basis to exclude him…’

          There is. It’s in the Fourteenth Amendment:

          “ Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”

          • Redneck Liberal January 16, 2021 at 2:46 pm #

            Some opinions hold that the Conviction of the Impeachment charge is not even necessary to invoke this clause. A simple majority in both Houses will do it.

    • Wizard of the Saddle January 15, 2021 at 2:03 pm #

      @ SW

      Yes, holding a Senate impeachment trial of Trump after noon on January 20th is both unconstitutional and pointless…..unless…….

      ….you are Nancy (Bat-Shit-Crazy) Pelosi, who sees the following reasons to proceed:

      1) So they can keep the fractious Democrat multikulti coalition united by their common Trump hate for just a few months longer.

      2) So Nancy can continue exacting revenge against Trump for all of the ridicule he has heaped on her fragile ego over the past 5 years and for kicking her off that bus a couple of years ago when she wanted to travel on the taxpayer’s dime.

      3) So Trump can be further tar-brushed as “the only president to be impeached twice” and as a president who “led an insurrection.” This, of course, being necessary, to drive down his public support and try to preempt another run for the White House in 2020 by Trump, Grover Cleveland style.

      4) To distract the voters while Biden and the Woke Mob try to ram through as much radical legislation in the first 100 days of the new administration as possible before the inevitable GOP resistance starts getting it’s act together.

      5) To demonize the entire Trump movement as the Second Coming of Jefferson Davis the Confederate States of America, which for Libtards, ranks up their with the Fourth Reich on their list of top leftist phobias.

      So, yeah, there are reasons for the stupidity of this second impeachment Dog & Pony Showtrial.

      • SW January 15, 2021 at 5:30 pm #

        And of course Nancy can stay front and center of the camera.

        I hope everyone stays away from the inauguration and it’s the most peaceful day in history for everyone’s sake. Nothing at all can change this trajectory and a military coup is the last thing this country needs.

      • MaryV January 15, 2021 at 10:30 pm #

        I think – considering the source – being impeached twice and leading an insurrection might be a plus on his resume, in coming times.

    Great post.

    I might be wrong, but this situation in DC doesn’t add up.

    Latest tally is 26,000 national guard troops called up by Trump. Biden cancelled his plans to come to DC for a rehearsal and no one knows where Pelosi, Biden, and a few others are hiding.

    Trump is releasing the FBI files on Spygate. DC is a fortress, and everyone knows Biden lost the election.

    Storm seems to be moving in. Let’s see!

        So? It’s been closed (to non-essential travel) since March last year.

    • Wizard of the Saddle January 15, 2021 at 2:09 pm #

      @Night Owl

      If Trump suddenly federalizes those NG troops in DC, placing them under his direct command, AND cancels his Air Force One flight to Mar-A-Lago on January 19th…..well, then, and only then, would I be impressed enough to possibly entertain the notion that the jig might be up for the Deep State and their Oligarch masters.

      But I’m still not holding my breath waiting for it to happen. Sorry….

      • abbybwood January 15, 2021 at 4:02 pm #

        I read today that there is a giant loading van outside The White House.

        Maybe Trump will ride shot-gun down to Mara Lago instead of fly?

        At least this way he can stop at Waffle Houses and Mickey D’s on the trip and hang out with some Deplorables.

      • Night Owl January 15, 2021 at 5:22 pm #

        It isn’t about whether you are convinced. No one knows for sure.

        The only other logical scenario is that he is fully neutered. But IMO, it does not make sense. And I have yet to be wrong these past four years, with the exception of Pence’s actions last week. But why Pence did what he did that remains to be seen; and he blocked Saggy Tits from pulling the 25th, too.

        We will all know soon enough.

In that event, can we contribute to a mailing list for that purpose?

    I think that the coming difficulties will make the progressives wish their candidates had lost the election and they could blame all the problems on their favourite boogeyman, a.k.a. the Golden Golem.

    In the immediate future, I expect that Pres. Biden’s administration will vindictively go after Trump and his followers in every way possible. Look for show trials and people dying in custody.

      Not sure you’re aware of how immigration works here, but, very different from what many Americans think, you can’t just decide to emigrate to Canada, and then things move along briskly to where you’re settled and sworn in as a citizen.

      It’s a many-year process, with strict regulations. Marriage to a Canadian helps speed things up.

    Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) undermined the message of “unity” from President-elect Joe Biden and Vice-President-elect Kamala Harris, saying there will be “no return to normal” for America in a message posted to social media Thursday.

    Pressley, a member of the House’s far-left “Squad,” made the remarks a little more than a week after violent riots broke out at the U.S. Capitol.

    I’ve lost faith in both sides, but Biden acted much more “presidential” than Trump immediately following the riot at the capitol. Trump told the rioters he would be with them, then ran and hid in the White House. If Trump had all of this information, and all of this proof about the election being rigged, why hasn’t it come out? The whole world is corrupt and conspiring against Trump?

      The proof is out there if you want to look and see it. The question/problem is that every attempt to get if before a judge for a hearing and thus official and widespread exposure has been tossed out for one ‘reason’ or another, mostly on ‘procedural’ grounds.

      There is NO DOJ, FBI or judiciary left worth a damn so as Jim has said the only institution with even an inkling of legitimacy left is the military.

    Why the 25000 troopers around Capitol ? My wild guess is that this is to convince those who need convincing that the US is in imminent danger of a white supremacist coup. The number is to create the illusion of a planned massive assault by Proud Boys or some such like cackle of idiots who communicate their wicked plans unencrypted over their cell phones. Apart from that, Ariel Pink was Tucker Carlson’s guest last night for his being dropped by a recording company after attending the DC White House rally (he wasn’t at the Capitol). He said that the Dems are “sore winners”. Well, let’s just say that I have never seen “winners” being this scared, and so doubtful of their legitimacy. To me it simply confirms an old observation of shrinks; the desire for omnipotence always brings about the most acute feelings of insecurity.

      While your analysis may be correct never underestimate the power of simple revenge. Joe Biden will shield his son and family and Pelosi and Schumer will gladly assist.

      “Why the 25000 troopers around [the] Capitol ? My wild guess is that this is to convince those who need convincing that the US is in imminent danger of a white supremacist coup.”

      There might well be such a solid political motivation (“Trump supporters are very angry, dangerous, and capable of anything”) – but I expect it is more an over-reaction to the events of 6 January – when law enforcement / domestic military were caught out badly, embarrassed, and have been heavily criticised,

    I don’t know, Jim, I think it is all too little, too late. I think President Trump made the political mistake of his career to organize that crowd on January 6th, and the Deep State must have cackled with glee at how easy it was to open the doors to the Capitol and lead in the justifiably angry and sadly gullible. The political fallout from that event is still reverberating, not because it was the threat it was claimed to be, but because when your opponents control the media even a relative non-event (compared to previous violence this year) can be blown up into Pearl Harbor 2021, etc. Look at the political implications just so far: Republicans fall into line certifying Biden election, calls for persecution of Republicans who questioned the election, the de-platforming of tens of thousands on social media, the shutdown of an entire social media platform (Parler), a second impeachment which somehow promises to extend beyond his actual time in office (is that even constitutional!?). I’m probably missing a few major ones as well. As if anyone is going to care about some illegal spying four years ago, or the Biden family corruption six years ago. Nope, that stuff is only going to live in the memories of a minority of Americans, and when it gets brought up (infrequently) at a social gathering the response will be “Well, Trump tried a coup at the Capitol, we always knew he was Hitler! Shaddup!”

    • Yohannon January 15, 2021 at 1:59 pm #

      Remember he did a lot of firing and hiring among the Department of Defense. He didn’t have the right pieces in place at that point. And he did want to use the military but he was told by one of the generals not to officially ask because the answer would be no.

      I concur, but we also have to stop allowing them to do this in the aftermath. They are trying to make the ‘breach’ = Pearl Harbor, but their narrative keeps falling apart. If it was working, it would still be trending on Twitter all day every day. It really isn’t. They have other things to dangle in front of our faces to distract us.

      The people who showed up on popular Facebook posts about it who tried to further the Democrat narrative on that incident get buried and laughed at. All they have are assigned talking points that fall apart with the least bit of scrutiny.

      @Oregonian

      You are right on all counts.

      If there is any saving grace in this gargantuan mess it is the simple fact that in the age of the 24 hour news cycle, the attention span of the American people is severely limited. They reach a saturation point on any “outrage of the day” in no time flat and soon tune-out and return to watching football, to playing disc golf, or watching porn on the Internet. Anything to relieve the insufferable boredom of the 24/7 MSM outrage over everything Trump does.

      So, give it 6 months. When the ratings drop, the cable channels will find a new enthusiasm. Especially if Trump appears to be all washed up and goes silent.

      In the meantime, patriots should be keeping their powder dry and should bail from social media and start making preparations to survive the tyranny we are sliding into.

        If someone wrote a script with a wish list of all the things you listed, it could not have gone more according to plan. I don’t know that there was an kind of plan but silencing anyone who raised legitimate questions was certainly accomplished. Ron Paul who is a threat to no one, was deplatformed from FB b/c he dared to disagree. As his son Rand tweeted — “where does this end?”

    • Tekapo January 16, 2021 at 1:33 am #

      “… a second impeachment which somehow promises to extend beyond his actual time in office (is that even constitutional!?).”

      By definition, an impeachment trial verdict (in the Senate) to remove someone from office cannot occur after someone’s term ends, or if they resign beforehand.

      However a trial verdict to ban an impeached person from ever holding federal office again is almost certainly constitutional – most legal experts say that.

      It has to be possible – otherwise someone could either run out the clock or simply resign just before the verdict, to escape the ban.

      I assume the Democrats will seek a decision in the Senate to achieve a lifetime ban – it will be interesting to see whether there are 17 Republican senators who really want the party to be rid of Trump – and achieve clear air for 2022 and especially 2024.

      • SW January 16, 2021 at 12:16 pm #

        Thank you for that clarification as it’s been very confusing, at least to me, why the House Democrats were so determined to impeach. Trump would be about 78 in 2024. Surely the Republicans could come up with someone better by then.

        I would support a Constitutional Amendment that states no one over 65 or who would assume office after turning 65 is allowed to run for any political office and must surrender their seat the next election cycle after their 65th birthday.

        Why aren’t Schumer, Pelosi, Sanders, Biden and all the rest mentoring young Senators and Congressmen instead of clinging to power at all costs? But it will never happen as these very people and those like them would never allow it.

        • Tekapo January 17, 2021 at 7:03 am #

          “Why aren’t Schumer, Pelosi, Sanders, Biden and all the rest mentoring young Senators and Congressmen instead of clinging to power at all costs? ”

          It’s a good question … maybe they fear powerlessness more than anything. They don’t seem to want to have 5-10 years of relaxed retirement – playing golf, travel, quality time with grandkids, etc.

          But it’s almost universal … whether its a liberal democracy or a dictatorship, hardly anyone voluntarily resigns; they are kicked out by colleagues or voters, they die in office, or they are deposed and killed. Seems to come with the territory.

          BTW, in the Senate it only requires a simple majority to issue a lifetime ban to an impeached official not two-thirds … my mistake And I agree that Trump would be much better off not trying again.

    A little while ago, I was curious about who would be the Senate Majority Leader in the case of a 50/50 split, and when that might take place since the two senators from Georgia maybe haven’t taken office yet. So I pulled up a Wikipedia page that showed a table listing Senate officers. It showed McConnell as the Senate MINORITY Leader, and Schumer as the Senate MAJORITY Leader. Well, as far as I know, that change hasn’t taken place yet.

    So I hit the edit button and FIXED IT!!!

    “the name for it is a crisis of legitimacy… a crisis of legitimacy means that citizens have lost faith in their institutions, that is, in the armature of agreements and procedures for running this society.”

    Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us twice – and three and four and five and six…. times, shame on US. In fact, shame on all this. Faith is like trust. When it’s gone, it’s gone. The bedrock of social living is faith (in the tribe as a whole and process as a whole), and trust (that each part of the whole is rightfully doing and contributing their part of the whole). When one – or ALL – of the parts of the machine are not functioning correctly, things deteriorate quickly. And no one comes along to put all the parts back together and restore their true functionality.

    “Is it any wonder that a huge chunk of the population doesn’t believe the election was on-the-level?”

    One might also ask… can anyone name ANYTHING today that’s ‘on the level’. The Level is always the first thing to go and the last thing to be restored… if it even can be.

    “Thousands of troops are billeted in and around Washington DC now. Why is that?”

    When everything else is gone, all that remains is the Iron Fist, the Heavy Hand. When any government begins to resort to brute force to protect itself from its own people, what does that say about the health of the nation? And the lack of useful alternatives? This movie has already been run many times in other places. And popcorn won’t make it look or taste any better this time.

    this alone is enough to invalidate the election:

    “Key Battleground States Don’t Require Signature-Matching on Mail-in Ballots
    October 16, 2020 Admin

    by Daniel Payne

    Election rules in multiple key battleground states permit voters to submit mail-in and absentee ballots without having their signatures checked to ensure the vote is valid.

    Five states that have historically been competitive in presidential races — North Carolina, Iowa, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and New Hampshire — do not require signature-matching for mailed voting forms.

    In some cases, state officials have explicitly codified that rule. In August, Karen Bell, the executive director of the North Carolina State Board of Elections, wrote in a memo to all local county boards that a voter’s siagnture “shall not be compared with the voter’s signature on file because this is not required by North Carolina law.”

      that works as a joke.

      Here~s another one:

      “Eight of nine mismatched signatures accepted in Nevada mail-in ballot experiment:

      An experiment testing the veracity of Nevada mail-in ballot signature verification reportedly resulted in an 89% failure rate, raising concerns about the integrity of the state’s rapidly implemented universal mail-in ballot system.

      Las Vegas Review-Journal columnist Victor Joecks said in a Thursday article that he had nine people use his handwriting rather than their own for mail-in ballot signatures.

      “I wrote their names in cursive using my normal handwriting. They then copied my version of their name onto their ballot envelope. This two-step process was necessary to ensure no laws were broken,” Joecks said.

      The result contradicted assurances from Nevada officials that signature verification, the process of matching a voter’s signature on file to the signature on the ballot, would prevent fraudulent ballots from being counted.

      “Eight of the nine ballots went through. In other words, signature verification had an 89% failure rate in catching mismatched signatures,” Joecks said.

      Joecks did not reveal photos of the signatures used on the ballots or the names of those who participated.

      Nevada lawmakers in August changed the law to send a mail-in ballot to every voter on the state’s rolls.

      That resulted in dead voters and voters who had moved receiving mail-in ballots. Photos posted on social media show stacks of mail-in ballots sitting out in the open. Many pro-Trump Nevada protesters told the Washington Examiner last week that they received other people’s mail-in ballots.”

        A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump voted by mail in Florida. They voted in person in Florida in the 2020 general election and voted by mail in the state’s primary election. Also, an earlier version misstated late ballots rules in California. Ballots can arrive up to 17 days after the election and still be counted, according to extensions of state law because of the pandemic.

        – – –

        “More than 150,000 ballots were caught in U.S. Postal Service processing facilities and not delivered by Election Day, agency data shows, including more than 12,000 in five of the states that have yet to be called for either President Donald Trump or his Democratic challenger Joe Biden.

        Despite assurances from Postal Service leaders that agency officials were conducting daily sweeps for misplaced ballots, the mail service acknowledged in a court filing Thursday that thousands of ballots had not been processed in time, and that more ballots were processed Wednesday than on Election Day”

        Glad you liked the joke.

        Trump lost over 50 (is it over 60 now?) court cases on the election issue, and gave him only one tiny win. And the supreme court rejected him again:

        https://apnews.com/article/joe-biden-donald-trump-politics-elections-us-supreme-court-ce563646432dbee937dc5e8f1d677287

        Generally I trust judges because they don’t have to be raising money and securing influence for the next election. Generally I trust the results the judicial system produces because it’s designed to seek out truth. It’s highly imperfect, but it does evaluate based on evidence, precedent and rule of law.

        On top of that, and I hate that it’s the case, but I find myself trusting the judges who threw out all those Trump cases because so many of them are Trump appointees. Trump managed to squeeze three onto the Supreme Court, and fully expected them to come to his rescue in his time of need. They didn’t. And I think that’s because, however much I disagree with their politics, they answer to a higher power: Truth, supported by evidence.

        I trust them more than I do some person on the internet, copy-pasting something some other person on the internet said.

        If there’s any validity to this stuff it can survive examination by courts of law. Rudy had plenty of chances. 50 (or is it 60?) at least.

And this is the first action vested by POTUS to Sec of Defense and patriot Chris Miller; also includes Chair of Public Interest Declassification Board and Special Ops Coordinator Ezra Cohen Watnick (Q-anon) under the Insurrection Act (executive order 13848) and Nov 11 2020 executive order that was activated on Jan 11 2021 at 9:30 am eastern time.

    Get ready for the next action under these vested orders: the arrests! This is going to be like a hundred 2016’s.

    The new party formed out of the ashes will be called the Patriot Party. it will dominate the entire decade.

    James K, you’ve been eager to believe for many weeks/months that Trump has some great bazooka up his sleeve which will blow the Resistance away. But I fear that they’ve won. Do you know what it means when the law-courts are shown surveillance footage of election officers pulling out a suitcase full of fake ballots from under a table in the wee hours of the night, then counting them when no one is around, and yet the courts throw out the case? It means the judges themselves are capable of denying the evidence of their own eyes. It means the rule of law is suspended if it does not favor the liberals. It means the judiciary system (including the Supreme Court) has become an extended arm of the Democratic Party. It means they have successfully subverted all the vital organs of society and are now using them for the achievement of their ends. What can Greek-tragedy-hero figure of Trump do in the face of all this?

    Perhaps Trump’s supporters will come to his rescue and prepare for civil war? Perhaps they’ll show the Dems that they have teeth and WILL fight back? I’m not seeing any evidence of it. Like you said in a blog post a while back, the general population has been turned into into cowering hostages willing to lie about their convictions to avoid “cancellation.” Moreover, the upper monied classes (the likes of Zuckerberg, who can spare a half billion dollars to subvert the elections), who live in the cities and nerve centers of civilization, control most of the nation’s resources. A war between Trump’s supporters and the liberals is essentially a war of countryside vs city, poor vs rich, average vs intelligent. Just imagine if civil war does break out, if, for example, a militia group forms somewhere in rural Georgia. It’s a small matter for the Democrats to cut the electricity, fuel and supplies to these areas and starve them. This is the great bane of a centralized system: one is robbed of the self-sufficiency which is indispensable to waging a war.

    I had refused to believe it several months back but I fear this is true: men have been undone by decades of peace, prosperity and comfort and can no longer fight, or perhaps they’re too daunted by this new and fearsome enemy, which has emerged not from some foreign land, but from next-door, from school, from one’s own workplace, even from one’s own church. It’s like a tide which has been rising all around us for the longest time and now threatens to drown us. It has caught us completely off guard. How do you defeat an enemy which is mingled in with the population all across the land?

    What people do not understand is that all this madness is part of an ongoing decades-long process of subversion. It started with the KGB sowing the seeds of disunity in American society way back around the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and so on. But at some point, Americans themselves took over the process of demoralization (such as pumping the kids full of Marxist/Leninist ideas in the universities) and guided the snowball into the avalanche which it has now become, and which threatens to bury the entire society.

    • sunburstsoldier January 15, 2021 at 6:08 pm #

      Whatever may happen to Trump’s legacy as president his primal, archetypal mission was accomplished; to bring out in the open how deeply Secular Totalitarianism (the leftist-orientated Deep State) has infiltrated the cultural and social institutions of the West. He accomplished this simply by being someone the Left felt irresistibly compelled to destroy by fair means or foul. Unfortunately for them, in their efforts to destroy him they have inadvertently destroyed their own reputations, while severely damaging the venerable institutions of which they are the current caretakers. From this point forward, although those on the Left may think they are winning, in truth they are losing ground day by day.

      • shox January 15, 2021 at 6:22 pm #

        @sunburstsoldier

        Thanks for the thoughtful comment. I’ve been saying much the same thing myself in my conversations with people. Whatever one may think about Trump and his accomplishments, there is NO DOUBT whatsoever that he has ripped the curtains down and revealed the moral degeneracy and rot at EVERY level of the political establishment and even in supposedly apolitical institutions such as the CDC and the NIH. Revealed it in its full unexpurgated glory for the non-brainwashed half of the population to see.

        I hope patriotic Americans are genuinely stirred to an intense anger over the events of the last few months – with the race riots (“peaceful protests”), the slandering of America and its values, the despicable antics of BLM and Antifa, the cynical, brazen and shameless subversion of the presidential elections, the treason of the media and big-tech as they takes an aggressively anti-American position with all their censorship and lopsided narratives, the despicable cowardice of the GOP to stand up to all this and stamp it out.

        It now falls upon the shoulders of the common man to take matters in his own hands. The freedom-loving part of the American people are truly on their own. The rule of law has come to an end. The law-courts can no longer be trusted to dispense justice in good faith. Lady Justice is no longer blindfolded. No one should hold himself to a standard of law-abidingness which those in power shamelessly flout. It’s time to prepare for civil war, or at the very least civil disobedience. There HAS to be a balance of power, otherwise the abuses we have witnessed over the last few months will intensify unabated.

    • J. Dean January 16, 2021 at 12:35 pm #

      In your comment and all of this I am reminded of free will. It is not just what others “have done to us”, but what we, as a country, have done to ourselves. There is the evil that is without; but also, even more so, the evil that is within.

      Complacency is a small sin but in small increments multiplied over time it eats away the foundation of the house like termites.

      I think Jim’s writing as a whole tends more towards the self-inflicted culture (“we get what we deserve”) as the root problem vs. the conspiracies…but then there are real conspiracies…

      One thing I am nearly certain of: when you have a diluted, dissipated culture such as ours you don’t need any conspiracies to ensure its demise.

            Rubbing and grabbing at a child’s breast, stroking and smelling hair, puling children into his crotch, etc.

            My wife is a social worker and said he would have been grabbed by the cops here in Germany had it occured here.

            Hunter’s tapes are another level, but given what Joe does in public, I have little doubt about what he does in private. And his son was likely abused himself. That is how it works.

      • thirdcoastlegend January 16, 2021 at 10:48 am #

        I think a lot of the dissonance stems from the fact that a lot of people have made and could make a ton of money selling the US to China.

        I mean, look what they did to Trump when he started messing with their cash flow.

        • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 16, 2021 at 11:12 am #

          Agreed. I’m specifically referring to some of our many friends and family that are technically smart…the intellegentsia…people with doctorates and respected jobs…and nearly one and all toe the liberal line with no questioning allowed. “NYT says this, so…” That is a dissonance in itself, to me. Genius doesn’t mean discerning.

            Yes, the mass media mind short-circuit is frustrating and disappointing to see in otherwise decent people.

            The other elite thing Trump messed with was their human and child trafficking operations.

            He had the US Marshals going after trafficking everywhere with nary a peep from the national media, just some brief mentions on local TV news here and there.

      While I disagree with the efficacy of rude public harassment, that is literally what the likes of Maxine Waters has been promoting for years when her supporters see a Republican or cabinet member in public.

      And, I might add, it’s what essentially the entire democrat party (still no caps…again, fuck em) and the big tech companies are actively doing, trying to do, and promoting for every person who ever may have supported Trump since they got the green light to officially be smug pricks with de facto impunity for their hatred and tantrums.

      So it goes both ways…but I love how two or three examples of conservatives being jackasses always supersedes a thousand examples of liberals acting the same (and usually worse).

    Extrapolation!

    Extrapolate where the country will be in four years from today’s trends.

    Covid. Vaccines will partially work, yearly injections or more. Covid plus flu still being a major impact every winter?

    National Debt. Up another 10 trillion to 36 trillion. Retirees cashing bonds could really blow this up.

    Medicare. Trust fund 0. Working off of payroll taxes with either debt skyrocketing or reduced benefits in the form of deductibles.

    SS. Still paying, trust fund declining, too politically violent to do anything about it.

    Obamacare. Will expand as the insurance market continues to become more expensive, This will start running the deficit up faster as premiums increase and subsidies get larger.

    Medicare for all. If this ever passes, medical care will suffer greatly. The capital pool for care will shrink per capita giving less care. Elective folks will wait in line for years.

    Racial relations. The government is going to try to shove cancel culture down the throats of 70% of the US population. This will explode during the four years. This summer is just the beginning.

    Antifa. This anti-government organization funded by the globalist Marxists will continue to grow under Dem control. If Biden ever wises up to what is happening, this could explode again.

    Taxes. Ho Ho! Stand by. If you want to get a job in the next four years, better make it quick. Corporations are going to flee this country fast. Small business will have to pick up the tax burden. Yeah, right!

    Unemployment Already starting to skyrocket due to Covid. Long term unemployment will become a problem again, like with Obama. Taxes will keep new job creation down.

    Climate change. No change as the reality of GND attempts hit home. See also, Michael Moore’s reality show, “Planet of the Humans”. Hopefully, this will finally destroy AOCs credibility.

    Politics. 2022 sees No changes as GOP is going to collapse. Maybe a new party for conservatives to find a home?

    Education. Continued Stupidification of American youth as a culture control by the Deep State. Forgiveness of student loans will push the debt up another trillion. “Free” college will put half of the universities out of business as increased debt due to capital outlays will drive them into bankruptcy. Non availability of loans, banks will no longer make them will crater the universities also.

    Foreign. China becomes number one king of the mountain but 2024. Europe continues downward as the Muslim gimmes destroy Europe’s cultures and economies. China hooks up with Africa, Europe and the Middle East and wins the geopolitical chess game. Latin immigration skyrockets destroying the common culture of the US. Browning increases rapidly. Mexican cartels increase influence as homelessness and despair increases the demand for drugs.

    All extrapolations based on the unavailability of capital domestically to do much of anything. The globalists are going to suck this baby dry under Biden control.

    This is just a small part of The Long Emergency, just the next four years. SSL, now understand why I am so pessimistic.

      Bedpan promises to “decarbonize the US by 2030”. 2030? Does anybody really think Bedpan Biden will be around even 6 months from now ha?

      Decarbonize the US? Run the whole show then on windmills and solar panels, including those massive apartment blocks in the Bronx where the sun never shines and the wind never blows? The ass sucking MSM never ask Bedpan about the details, or whether or not his plan to ‘decarbonize the US’, but still provide enough juice to keep the country going, abrogates basic laws of thermodynamics. No, the media ask him questions like “How wonderful does it feel to be President Elect?”

      If you paid back your student loan, would you get a refund?

      What about student loans going forward? Would they still be made, then automatically forgiven after you got one? They would just be grants instead of loans?

    China, the debt, and SS have been concerns neither party could get a grip on.

    Medicare for all. I’d rather have the government overseeing health care than grotesquely greedy insurance companies.

    Increase taxes on the obscenely rich billionaires and corporations. Disincentives can be put in place to keep companies from fleeing.
    If they insist on fleeing, distribute their assets and give them to patriotic Americans who won’t.

    Climate change must be addressed, not necessarily with the extremities of the GND. For example, serious glacial melt is taking place at the ‘third pole’, the glaciers of the Himalayas and the Tibetan plateau. This will affect the world’s mightiest river systems like the Ganges, the Mekong, the Brahmaputra, the Indus, and the Yangtze, and about three billion people whose lives depend on these rivers.

    The GOP deserves to collapse.

    Medical costs have not decreased to any extent under Trump and may have increased.

    Obama unemployment went from about 10% to a bit under five when he left. And,

    ‘According to Bureau of Labor Statistics data, 6.6 million non-farm jobs were created during Trump’s three years ending 2019, while 8.1 million jobs were created during Obama’s preceding three years.’

    Bringing jobs back? Trump fell flatter than piss on a plate:

    When black mobs crawled up onto US 95 last june, stopping traffic for miles, 10,000 cars headed into NYC, State Troopers accompanied them, ‘taking a knee’ with loud mouth leaders, while the rest of the Mostly Peaceful mob circulated thru the stationary traffic smashing windows, kicking dents into doors, and robbing motorists.

      “Nothing augurs for social harmony like demonizing and ignoring the other side’s legitimate grievances and repressing them.”

      I actually think it’s quite a complex (and tough) call for President Biden and Democrats in general.

      Assuming that unity, healing, and turning down the temperature are a good thing that most people desire (a big assumption?) – does Biden et al move on on, implement an aggressive reform agenda while they hold all the levers, or do they use up limited political capital going after Trump, his family, and his enablers in the Republican Party?

      It’s not a rhetorical question … I certainly don’t have an answer. But I think it depends a lot on Trump himself.

      Even though he never concedes he lost a fair election, and refuses to attend the inauguration or have a cup of tea with Joe Biden on the morning of 20 January, if he fades away quietly and goes play golf – he might avoid the more extravagant forms of investigation and prosecution.

      I think it’s up to him. His more committed supporters are another matter.

        “I actually think it’s quite a complex (and tough) call for President Biden and Democrats in general.”

        I don’t. After the Civil War the North pardoned the South, including the top generals, after 620,000 people were maimed and blown to smithereens over several grueling years.

        If they could do that in the name of “unity and healing” after all that, it should be the tiniest of concessions for Joey NoPulse & Co. to let these most miniscule political bygones be just that. Instead, so far they are choosing to attack, erase and cancel people and their existence in our history. For voting for a guy they thought was a dickhead.

    The Elite seem to have Compartmentalized Personalities?

    For example, George Washington was a fervent believer in Republican ideals, but he lived an ostentatious Baronial lifestyle.

    “ Benioff is not only a member of the WEF’s board of trustees, but he is also the inaugural chair of the forum’s Centre for the Fourth Industrial Revolution, a “revolution” that its architect and WEF founder Klaus Schwab defines as a merging of humans’ physical, digital, and biological identities. Benioff is also the owner and cochair of Time magazine, which recently ran an entire issue focused on promoting the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the WEF-backed Great Reset.
    Benioff also serves on the Council for Inclusive Capitalism, a collaboration between the Vatican and oligarchs to create a “more inclusive, sustainable and trusted economic system” for the twenty-first century. Alongside Benioff on the council are well-known figures such as Lynn Forester de Rothschild (close associate of Jeffrey Epstein and the Clintons), Mark Carney (UN special envoy for Climate Action and former Governor of the Bank of England), and William Lauder (executive chairman of Estée Lauder, nephew of Mega Group member Ronald Lauder) as well as the top executives of MasterCard, Visa, Dupont, Merck, Johnson & Johnson, BP, and Bank of America. Also present are the heads of the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations.

    Benioff and others mentioned in this article are perfect examples of the cross-pollination between groups of oligarchs and their associated foundations and organizations and how these networks are working together to pursue a common agenda. While the push for combining digital identity with vaccination records and economic activity appears, superficially, to be the effort of various organizations and groups, the same individuals and entities appear time and again, pointing to a coordinated push to not only implement such a system but manufacture consent for such a system among the global population.

    The effort to manufacture consent for an all-encompassing digital identification system is notable given that its main selling point thus far has been coercion. We have been told that without such a system we will never be able to return to work or school, never be able to travel, or never be allowed to participate normally in the economy. While this system is being introduced in this way, it is essential to point out that coercion is a built-in part of this infrastructure and, if implemented, will be used to modify human behavior to great effect, reaching far beyond just the issue of COVID-19 vaccines.”

      All of Africa is corrupt not sure if it’s a race issue or a culture issue.

      What is troubling is that now these United States are no better or should I say no longer bothers to hide the corruption rampant in our own government.

      The Republican showed his true colors in that he is now worried about his gravy train and re-election nothing more.

    You said,

    “What if, under the extraordinary conditions of the moment, those levers are transferred to one arm of the government that has not disgraced itself: the military?”

    Say what? In all the years we’ve kept in touch, I’ve never read a comment by you that condemns US military terrorism. Destroying civilians societies all around the globe is terrorism, Jim, and it is crimes against humanity. The military is not a defender of anything, because we are not under attack by anyone. The military serves the banking families’ greed and murders and destructions. As a Vietnam veteran, I take no pride in being just one of the ignorant soldiers who took part in “serving my nation”. I was a dumb schmuck, a pawn, in the US campaign of terrorism against the Vietnamese people. I am so glad that I did not manage to kill any of them.

    The US military today still drops bombs on civilians, trains homeless Takfiri crazies how to use modern weapons to murder civilians in order to rifle their belongings for valuables, and is the world’s Terrorist.

    Estimates of how many civilians the US has murdered are in the tens of millions since WWII.

    During that war, firebombing and nuking cities in Germany and Japan are terrorist crimes against humanity. Reports I’ve read put the number of cities that had their citizens burned up by firebombs and radioactive weapons in the hundreds.

    The US military is doing the devil’s work and is a disgrace. This is probably why so many ex-soldiers eat their gun. How can anyone live with their brutal acts of cold-blooded murder against unarmed civilian families? The memories must be too much.
    How does a soldier reconcile his realization that instead of being a patriot doing his duty, he was actually a terrorist serving the rich? I wonder especially about those who dropped all the bombs – the pilots. How do they sleep at night?

      Versus how many people the Vietnamese murder?
      How about Communist they have murdered hundreds of millions and shortened the lives of several hundred million more by years from gross mismanagement and corruption of everything.

      What about Muslim raiders for the last 1,500 years they murdered hundreds of millions of people who practiced other faiths.

      How about Christians pretty sure they murdered their fair share over the last 2,000 years.
      What about Japan, China, Russia, Turkey, Iran, aka Persia, Great Britain, France, Spain, Mezo Americans…

      I’m a veteran and up till now I was pretty proud of my service.

      Now with a fraud wracked election and the American people cheated out of a court system even willing to look at the issue what is the point?

    You are writing about things you do not know and have not experienced.

      “Brezhnev time even now is considered Russia golden times, absolute peak of Russia history. And you should know that we actually were free then.”

      Well, some of you were. Have you ever read Irina Ratushinskaya’s book, Grey is the colour of hope? She was sent to prison under Brezhnev for talking about freedom. Including a year in solitary with no heating (-40C). Very free.

      You should read it – it’s a beautiful book, from what I recall all those decades ago.

      I’m not a Putin fan either. Still too many dissidents bumped off, even if the numbers are much lower. And it’s a bit sick being as rich as he is, with his ahem … ‘acquired’ billions, then to raise the age of retirement to where the average male Russian won’t live to see it. (For the Putin fans, one has to ask why so many Russian men still drink themselves to death in their nationalist paradise.)

        Who is Ratushinskaya, Solzhenizin’s sister. Same liar but you still believe lies. Learn Russian, read Russian blogs where Solzhenizin is mentioned. You will learn a lot.
        I am not discussing Putin. He is liberal capitalist. Under this regime if no Putin, there will be someone else and there will be no better. Until Soviet power and socialism established.

    Bottom to top. (Cumulative % increase)

    W. -2%
    Obama 0%
    Bush 1. 1%
    Reagan 3%
    Trump 5%
    Clinton. 8%
    Carter. 12%

    Obama, Bush1, W and Reagan had recessions they were working out of.

    Carter surprised me.

    All of the 7 except Trump continued upward during their terms at about the same slope. Covid dropped Trump to -10% which has recovered to
    To -4%.

    If Trump had not had Covid dropped on his economy, from whatever source, he would have beaten Obama hands down. At 36 months only Carter and Clinton had him beat.

    You are listening to biased reporting.

    They’ll be rolling Beijing Biden out in a fully electric hospital bed surrounded by 4 Chinese soldiers dressed in scrubs, an IV mainlining meth into an open vein giving him that incandescent glow and lifelike hue, with more goddam wires and tubes running in and out of him than a 12 cylinder Jaguar engine. His appearance at the inauguration will be brief; one of his Chinese handlers will pull a lever and Biden’s arm will raise up and give a wave, that’ll be about it.

    His Hollywood backers and MSM suckups will take the show from there, singing, dancing, telling jokes, giving laudatory speeches and patting themselves on the back, IOW a big lefty/media circle jerk.

    How do you like it now, gentlemen?

      “They’ll be rolling Beijing Biden out in a fully electric hospital bed surrounded by 4 Chinese soldiers …”

      Two solid memes from the Trumpian end of the pond, and they don’t seem to go away: (1) that Joe Biden is unwell, unfit, and soon to be parked in the Alzheimer’s Hilton, and (2) that he is the classic Manchurian Candidate, and we might as well give the keys to DC to President Xi Jinping right now.

      Well, it seems to me that Sleepy Joe is about 500% fitter and healthier than junk-food-obese Donald Trump is (he who has a lot of trouble with a glass of water and gentle ramps), and I don’t think Uncle Joe is beholden to Beijing anywhere near to the extent that Trump is in the hole with Russia.

      Don Junior or Eric came right out and said it, in about 2018 – they don’t need US banks, they have a direct pipeline to Russia.

      Anyway, I don’t like Trump or Biden much (both way too old, both with lots of baggage) … it’s just interesting the way these two memes or themes keep getting cycled and recycled.

    I still want to know why the most popular president ever in US history who absolutely received the most votes in US history ever (and if you question it you will be silenced, deplatformed, starved, and exterminated) must be surrounded by over 30,000 troops and razor wire for his virtual inaugaration? And why are we not seeing organic, spontaneous, and exhuberant (not paid for) street celebrations for this most popular leader that has ever existed like there were all the time for the wicked, fascist dictator DJT? And why did the most popular and most voted for political figure ever in human history have far less followers on twitter than the evil fascist dictator DJT? But hey! Out of all this crazy at least we can verify that Mexico is the apparent bastion of free speech!

    • Tekapo January 16, 2021 at 2:38 pm #

      “I still want to know why the most popular president ever in US history … ”

      I have also thought a fair bit about all this.

      I know you’re being sarcastic, but I still consider it a mischaracterisation: Joe Biden isn’t the most popular president, Donald Trump is the most unpopular and people wanted him to be a one-termer.

      Outside of the 40-45% of lifelong Democratic voters who would vote for a tree-stump if it were painted blue, a large number of others (Independents, Republicans) wanted to be rid of Donald Trump, and voted that way. I think it’s pretty clear that there were a lot of anti-Trump votes rather than enthusiastic pro-Biden ones.

      The number of troops seems to keep growing rather rapidly, from 12,000 to 30,000 and counting. But whatever, it’s an extremely sad state of affairs for America – where a big slice of the national capital has to be cordoned off as if a war zone.

      I don’t know how realistic and dangerous the threat from the crazier end of the pro-Trump crowd is, but they are not being indulged this time; not after 6 January … the state is in control this time.

      Donald Trump made four fatal mistakes, in my view:

      1. He downplayed the pandemic all year
      2. He claimed a lost election was a rigged one
      3. He discouraged supporters from using mail-in voting
      4. He incited the storming of the US Capitol

      You can argue whether all these things are “true”, but their truth doesn’t matter much – it is the perception in the popular mind and the mass media that matter most.

      Anyway, in his dotage, sitting around one of his country clubs in a big leather chair, he can bore the pants off his guests about how he coulda been a contender …

      On the issue of where are the adoring Biden crowds, I think that can be explained too. Firstly the Dems take the pandemic seriously – and much more like sensible governments and public figures do in most other countries, and secondly, I think the Dems are on the right track – America doesn’t have an appetite for another president with crazy adoring crowds and mass rallies.

      Perhaps the people want a period of dull, methodical, and a steady ship … after the experience of the Trump years.

  82. Redneck Liberal January 16, 2021 at 12:10 pm #

    Gee, the general mood around here is shifting quite quickly now, to one of despair.

    You Trumpians are moving through the grief cycle. Just know there’s an eventual end to it -once you reach “acceptance” and discover (to your surprise) that the apocalyptic catastrophe of DJT being out of office (and quickly losing space in your heads) is not the end of the world, you’ll feel better.

    • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 16, 2021 at 12:28 pm #

      I would say a relatively small percentage of people here feel this despair you speak of. Or that it’s the end of the world. More like losing a massive poker pot when it was quite obvious the other guy was shifting his sleeves over the table a bit too much while clearing his throat and making nonsensical small talk to distract.

      But politically and culturally, it is very likely the beginning of something worse.

      Folks respecting their constitutional rights (and wanting to keep them without judgment) is becoming seen as a negative trait. Low-class and ignorant (redneck?), even.

      You can feel free to gloat and talk down to others about something over which you had zero control…but societally, you know that trend ain’t good.

      Grief cycle, my butt.

      Understanding of what is coming is what is happening. Knowing your country’s tradition of freedom above government has just died is what has occurred. Disbelief that enough really stupid people were fooled into voting for the largest crime family in US history, the DNC, is causing a lot of shaking heads.

      When this settles down after a few phony news cycles, there will be a re-organization of the conservative movement. I actually hope Trump stays out of it, but it will require a person with enough cojones to fight down this crime family that is in charge right now. New party, I hope, as the GOP is as much of a crime family now as the Dems. Repudiation and elimination of the RINO class. Plans to use alternative communications to tear down the blue wall that exists everywhere, EVERYWHERE.

      It has happened before in 1866. The result then was Lincoln. And CW1.

      The failure is a dictatorship, following the coercion techniques of Adolf Hitler, sorry Marlin, the Nazis and the brown and black shirts. Can’t happen, just look at DC right now, 40000 brown shirts shutting the place down to stop the few hundred protestors that might take action.

      Hope you gimme suckers are happy.

      • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 16, 2021 at 2:03 pm #

        Not to be too much of a stickler…but I presume you meant 1861, not 1866. Though 1866 was a big pile of shit too, just in a much different way…

        And: “Hope you gimme suckers are happy.”

        They are.

        Huh? The National Guard deployment is a ‘brown shirt’ army, imposing dictatorship? This is confusing.

        Our Local Oracle of All “Facts” Dark and Unknowable has already implied that Trump himself ordered their deployment and will use them to stop the Inauguration by declaring the Insurrection Act (some are saying he’s already invoked it…). It’s The Storm coming! The Kraken Released!

        And -“40000” now? That number keeps growing, still…

      • SoftStarLight January 16, 2021 at 2:00 pm #

        It’s a good idea but how do you suspect the party to win elections? It will have to be willing to print ballots, let dead people vote, rescan ballots over and over, hack into voting machines, etc. That’s only something Democrats can do and get away with. The new party will have to be willing to do whatever to win and enforce it. But since the Democrats have all the levers of power and enforce whatever rules benefit them at this point they clearly as we can see will not allow political dissent to exist. So the new party’s first action must be secession. You wll never be able to live with constitutional rights as long as Democrats have power. The entire planet knows that now. Which is an awesome thing if you think about it.

            Yes that is a good reminder. We won’t be able to return to what was because they did get away with the fundamental transformation so now we must leave altogether. There is actually quite a bit of energy out there for such a thing too. I heard recently that after the 2020 elections as many as a quarter of registered voters now think secession is a solution to the political and social polarization that has occurred in the country.

    Colin Flaherty says that the number of white on black rapes never exceeds ten any year (and sometimes there are none) while the other way round it is in thousands. (He says Obama stopped breaking down the statistics by race.) Of course, this is beside the point because rape is all about power so I expect looks do not come into it. Or so the experts say.

    • hmuller January 16, 2021 at 5:08 pm #

      Yes, I agree, Sean. Statistics tell one story; but our mainstream propaganda news industry has another agenda. They take one story and pound on it. Then the Soros mob for hire arrives on buses and begins the rioting, burning, vandalism, and looting.

      “Look at all the moral outrage over injustice in the land” scream the presstitutes.

      They have to beatify career criminals like George Floyd because they have a hard time finding truly innocent black victims of police brutality.

      Yes, on occasion it happens. In a nation of 330 million all sorts of things happen. In fact, white men committing crimes or fleeing there from are shot the same as black men. But those stories never get national attention, they don’t fit the agenda

      And now we stand on the cusp of an Orwellian tyranny and the end of free speech altogether. It really has come down to a war between good and evil. All you trolls supporting the deep state, the globalist corporate one-world agenda, the WOKE culture; you are the evil!

        Yes, I saw video of three smallish buses parked nearby and a claim that they were used to bring in the troublemakers, with a police escort. I cannot say it that is true but, based on what I have heard has been happening throughout the US during the summer, it is credible.

        • SoftStarLight January 17, 2021 at 3:46 am #

          And also keep in mind that billions of dollars in corporate donations have been funneled to BLM and probably to Antifa too before they were labeled a domestic terror group. So they definitely have the resources and training to pull off coordinated and sophisticated covert attacks as well as regular run of the mill overt riots. Allegedly many Antifa people specifically were trained in places like Syria.

          • Sean Coleman January 17, 2021 at 6:15 am #

            I knew about the funding but I did not know that Antifa had been labelled a terror group. I suppose all they have to do is set up a similar organization and Antifa’s members can join that instead. I am surprised they were called terrorists seeing as they are just carrying out the regime’s wishes.

    This principle is that there is a bottom line that must be faced squarely if the state is not to become all- powerful and usurp God’s primacy. We must recognize that there is a bottom line if we are to have real freedom of thought and action at the present time – even if, happily, we never reach that bottom line. If we have not faced the possibility of civil disobedience, if needed, our thinking and action at the present time will lack the freedom they should have….Simply put, the Declaration of Independence states that the people, if they find that their basic rights are being systematically attacked by the state, have a duty to try to change the government, and if they cannot do so, to abolish it.” – Dr. Francis A.

    We’ve reached an odd place.

    Predictions:

    – Every single election (on the national level) will be contested by the losing side from here on out. And with good reason (unless they get the damn computers out of the game, which will not happen).

    – If they don’t also have a majority in both houses, every President will be impeached from here on out.

    – People in the “losing party” will stop voting once their side wins again and they realize that it could’ve been fixed in their favor just as easily…and therefore likely was.

    – Liquor stores and weed dispensaries will do record business, and then before long no one will give a rat’s ass what happens in DC as long as their UBI credit shows up in their account every week.

    – Taco Bell will be the last restaurant standing in the Fast Food Wars (Demolition Man probably wasn’t kidding about everything)

    – There will be an official Department of Social Media within 4 years. And not to regulate it…but to staff the government with those unelected wankers that run so many people’s social lives thesedays.

    Hey Mango I predict the Dems will be so deep in sh#t by next summer they’ll never be able to climb out.

    Its gonna be pretty funny in the spring when Derek Chauvin is acquitted and BLM and Antifa mobs take to the streets, looting, hunting whitey, and burning down every lefty controlled sh#thole city from Portland to Baltimore. Hunting whitey, but whitey is onto the game now and may not be so cooperative this time around.

    I don’t know, maybe Beijing Biden will call on his partner Xi Jingping to help restore order, send in a few divisions of PLA.

      Brh – Can’t argue with you there, well, except for the Chauvin fallout in the streets being funny…it is possible he will be acquitted, as they jacked the charges up to the point it will be much harder to prove.

      I’m out in suburbia, but definitely not far enough to be comfortable if that shit breaks loose. And woe be to those within the inner ring. I certainly don’t want to play that game if it spills out.

      Interesting though…we’d be at an odd place in modern history if they convicted the man just to keep people from rioting. But they just might do that too. I heard an inner city preacher say that someone has to go to jail in this case, or it’ll be absolute mayhem (which he didn’t agree with, he was just stating it as what he knows to be a fact). It’ll be ugly.

      Actually, even if he’s convicted it’ll be ugly. Like when the Lakers win a championship and downtown gets looted and cars set on fire anyway just out of celebration.

      • BackRowHeckler January 16, 2021 at 3:44 pm #

        Well, if Chauvin is convicted — which I seriously doubt — there will be violence too, I agree. A sneaker store looted here, a Walgreens Pharmacy burned out there, nothing too serious. IOW another impromptu urban shopping spree. It will be containable.

        As far as our situation out here, enough of my rich lefty neighbors have BLM signs posted on their front lawns that the violent mobs hopefully will pass us by and move on to the blue collar town up the road, where the mob will meet fierce resistance.

          The outcome I forsee for the USA is an endgame where the country is “cut off” from Europe, Asia and the rest of the world except for South America. This is not necessarily a bad thing but one should be aware of this outcome as a possible and not all-together, unwelcome result of the final days of the LE. Especially if it means a New America(s).

        • BackRowHeckler January 16, 2021 at 4:34 pm #

          A few Western European countries will be “cut off” as well. Belgium will be the first country to fall to Islam, but not the last.

    Mr. Mango

    You have hit the problem on the head.

    The Joe six pack human quality has dropped so low and the stupidity so high that the society can no longer regulate its behavior.

    This ALWAYS ends up badly.

    I still cannot believe the two different reactions, last week’s Capitol riot versus the summer BLM riots, and the Leftist reaction to both. Also the RINOs. I believe it is societal schizophrenia. We as a group are nuts.

    It is good we have so many media pundits to do our thinking for us. We do not have the smarts to think for ourselves, it seems.

    • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 16, 2021 at 6:01 pm #

      JohnAZ –

      Isn’t it interesting that the current generations have instant access to nearly every piece of information humanity has ever learned, studied, debated, not to mention millenia of actions taken and their end results…

      And because of that 24/7 access, nearly everyone now has little interest in actually learning anything anymore. You know, as in embedded in their actual gray matter. Except (maybe) how to do their job. And since the concept of holding a job is going out of fashion, well…I’m sure you get my point.

      “This always ends up badly” will likely turn out to be the unheeded understatement of the century.

    “Is it any wonder that a huge chunk of the population doesn’t believe the election was on-the-level?”

    No. Trump has repeated this claim almost continuously for the last two months. Of course that would influence a huge chunk of the population.

          • Dick Tuck 2.0 January 16, 2021 at 6:33 pm #

            It’s an embarrassing question, of course. You see, in the real world, when you make an accusation like that it is customary to also present evidence to support it.

            Of course there is none, as we saw with trump’s crack legal team. So the whole ridiculous mess will soon fade away as real leadership takes over and we forget the orange slob’s name.

            “… the arrival of Tekapo and yet another set of word salads that are disproven with a 2-minute Interwebz search.”

            It seems you’re uncomfortable with reasoned and reasonable opinion that differs from yours, and believe that ad hominem personal attacks are a suitable defense.

            I don’t think I post “word salad”, and have stated a number of times that I don’t like either Trump or Biden, don’t believe that it is “proven” that there was election fraud, and I certainly don’t share the view that the Biden admin will mean TEOTWAWKI.

            It’s just a change from Republican to Democrat, and not particularly earth-shattering, I believe. And of course it would be nice to know what I have said that can be dis-proven with a two-minute search.

      • Mike Roberts January 16, 2021 at 8:23 pm #

        My comment has nothing to do with whether there is evidence or not; it’s about JHK’s words about the people who don’t believe it was a fair election.

        Your comment suggests that you haven’t researched the evidence, which is probably similar to many here. The evidence, as sometimes hinted at here, seems flimsy, at best. At this late hour, not even Trump’s team have seen fit to release all the evidence they supposedly have. It seems few have either been convinced by what evidence there is or have simply not examined it. However, if one believes everything Trump says, then one would not need to be convinced.

      Several months before that, actually, in advance of the election.

      Again…and how many times must this be brought up in reminding everyone currently on the high horse…media, dems and their supporters repeated that claim for four years prior. As you put it, “of course that would influence a huge chunk of the population”…no?

            So, you believe that no one (judges that is) looked at ‘the evidence’ . Not so. You believe what your echo chamber has been telling you for months.

            Check out Saagar & Ball on ‘Rising’ on The Hill channel on YouTube. They actually dissected each case, AND looked at the evidence offered to the various judges, rather a ‘wave of the hand’ “disproven”. They could see where the judges were coming from.

            For decades the system has been controlled by rotten, evil creatures (I’m sure you know the type) who advance those who join “the club”. There’s the carrot and there’s the stick to motivate compliance.

    I’m waiting for the smoking gun that shows this election was a fraud. Trump is probably waiting till the last minute to reveal it.

So, he’s saving it, and probably never will tell us. It’s worth too much to him as a notion, a string to pull to tease his supporters.

      “I’m waiting for the smoking gun that shows this election was a fraud.”

      I think realistically that ship has sailed.

      What I’m most interested in is whether there’s going to be a flurry of pardons over the remaining three days. Presumably there is a legal-admin team working long hours on drafting these.

      And will Donald Trump grant himself a pardon?

      If he does, you would think he almost immediately would be indicted for a federal crime … the Democrats (and presumably the Republicans) would want a Supreme Court ruling that “no-one is above the law” and “no-one can be a judge in their own trial”.

      And you would think both parties would want to beef up the existing DOJ Nixon-era policy that says a self-pardon is not possible.

      • Skunkape January 17, 2021 at 8:42 pm #

        Yeah. I was joking about the smoking gun. I’m surprised that people here and JHK are still holding out for credible evidence of the massive scale of fraud it would take to flip flop a landslide win for Trump into a big win for Biden. You’re right about this being a good time to review certain policies relating to the executive branch. I’m hoping for a review of nuclear weapon launch protocols.

    Home of the Brave–Jody Miller, 1965

    The school board says he can’t come to school no more
    Unless he wears his hair like he wore it before
    The PTA and all of the mothers
    Say he has to look like the others

    Home of the brave
    Land of the free
    Why can’t you let him be what he wants to be?

    The kids all laugh at his hair and his funny clothes
    And more than once he’s gone home with a bloody nose
    He’s not like them and they can’t ignore it
    So they all hate him for it

    Home of the brave
    Land of the free
    Why can’t you let him be what he wants to be?

    It really burns me up when they put him down
    He’s to only one sayin’ something in this whole town
    Instead of all the troubles they hand him
    Why don’t they try to understand him?

    Home of the brave
    Land of the free
    Why can’t you let him be what he wants to be?

    It’s interesting that this song by Grammy winner and country music singer Jody Miller topped out at #25 on the Billboard charts of the day, but never even cracked the country music charts because it was considered too “radical” by the conservative Nashville establishment.

      So he is a tranny? If so, the song commits a hate crime by calling him, him. Or he’s just grown his hair long and put on bell bottoms? A gay hippy thing?

      • Redneck Liberal January 16, 2021 at 11:34 pm #

        ‘So he is a tranny?’

        What an outrageous assumption to make. Even being ‘W’hite isn’t enough for you? For a Jesuit-trained ‘intellectual’, you are very sadly lacking in any connection to reality and so utterly lacking in anything resembling human compassion.

    Text of a Letter to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President of the Senate
    NATIONAL SECURITY & DEFENSE

    Issued on: January 13, 2021
    SHARE:
    ALL NEWS
    Dear Madam Speaker: (Dear Mr. President:)

    Pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, I hereby report that I have issued an Executive Order taking further steps to deal with the threat posed by the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) increasing exploitation of United States capital to resource and to enable the development and modernization of its military, intelligence, and other security apparatuses which continue to allow the PRC to directly threaten the United States homeland and United States forces overseas, including by developing and deploying weapons of mass destruction, advanced conventional weapons, and malicious cyber-enabled actions against the United States and its people.

    Through the national strategy of Military-Civil Fusion, the PRC increases the size of the country’s military-industrial complex by compelling civilian Chinese companies to support its military and intelligence activities. Those companies, though remaining ostensibly private and civilian, directly support the PRC’s military, intelligence, and security apparatuses and aid in their development and modernization. At the same time, they raise capital by selling securities to United States investors that trade on public exchanges both here and abroad, lobbying United States index providers and funds to include these securities in market offerings, and engaging in other acts to ensure access to United States capital. In that way, the PRC exploits United States investors to finance the development and modernization of its military.

    To deal with that threat, I signed Executive Order 13959 on November 12, 2020. Executive Order 13959 prohibits certain purchases involving publicly traded securities, or any securities that are derivative of, or are designed to provide investment exposure to such securities, of any Communist Chinese military company. Those companies are ones the Department of Defense has listed, or will list, pursuant to section 1237 of Public Law 105-261, as amended, or are identified as Communist Chinese military companies or their subsidiaries by the Secretary of the Treasury using similar criteria.

    Today, I signed an Executive Order amending Executive Order 13959. The amendments prohibit certain sales as well as purchases of publicly traded securities, or any securities that are derivative of, or are designed to provide investment exposure to such securities, of any Communist Chinese military company. They also prohibit possession of such securities by United States persons 1 year after a company is determined to be a Communist Chinese military company. And, finally, they allow the Secretary of Defense publicly to list whether a company is a Communist Chinese military company using the criteria in section 1237(b)(4)(B) of Public Law 105-261, as amended by section 1233 of Public Law 106-398 and section 1222 of Public Law 108?375, regardless of whether the Secretary must report that determination under section 1237(b)(2).

    I am enclosing a copy of the Executive Order I have issued.

    Sincerely,

    DONALD J. TRUMP

    Yoho: Well at least he’s firing his cannon as he leaves port. As I said before, maybe he would have done more but the military was just not there for him. The Join Chiefs wrote a letter the other day warning him and everyone else that Biden would be President and that’s the end of it.

    • Tekapo January 16, 2021 at 11:00 pm #

      “Well at least he’s firing his cannon as he leaves port.”

      Assuming the copy is genuine, what would be the purpose? The new administration on 20 January can reverse / cancel every Executive Order in existence.

      I concede though that sometimes reversing them can be politically very awkward

            I know, right? Maybe he liked the deal (dying in jihad, the 70 virgins, etc) so he signed on the jagged line. It’s hard being good and staying good. Dying for a good cause is easier. You could party with tranny ho’s and do blow the night before, and the next day be made clean, your soul as white as snow. Doesn’t that sound good?

            Apparently ISIS usually doesn’t make false claims in this regard.

    Y: get a grip. “Home of the Brave” was written in 1965, for God’s sake, long before sexual identity became a topic du jour. I imagine man-child Donny is feeling some of the same emotions that poor kid felt.. And BTW, Jody Miller is still performing at 79. Some folks can function after 70 it seems.

          “Author documents how half the 1960’s counter culture rock artists came from Intelligence community homes.” — hmuller

          Thomas Pynchon’s novel Vineland (1990) covers this. Pynchon’s perceived now as a prophet instead of whacked out isolationist.

          It’s the old joke: you’re not paranoid if they’re really out to get you.

            One more word on a related topic. Was Weatherman bomber Bill Ayers (Obama’s good buddy in Chicago) ever a genuine threat to the powers that be? He escaped jail time on some legal technicality and has prospered ever since.

            If he were a threat to the intelligence oligarchy, he would have died in his youth. I’m thinking agent provocateur and false flag organizer. He was clearly then a part of the ugly tentacled beast now strangling our way of life.

        January 17, 2021

        Several decades ago my late father, a veteran of the air war in the Pacific, went to an event honoring WW II vets at the huge Constitution Hall in DC.

        A lady speaker talked about this or that battle, units, operations, etc. She talked about the Tuskegee Airmen and went on and on and on, and then on and on some more, and then still more.

        She said nothing at all in recognition of those who fought the air war in the Pacific except for briefly mentioning the atomic bombings and the end of the war.

        I was off in the military myself at the time but later my mother told me how my father came home incensed at all of the praise that the one black unit received and how so many others were completely ignored. He said, “Hell, if they were so great, they should have been sent to the Pacific and the rest of us could have gone home!”

      Which Trump will still be when he leaves office. Something you Leftists will never ever understand, Respect.

      Thanks, EF. I read the linked article, all the comments, went back and read the previous post, then picked something at random from the ‘guns’ section.

      It was a full 40 minutes of engagement with an intelligent, articulate teacher before I even met the first mention of Trump. I had an assumption about his view (based on the referrer). I have no issues with this guy. He has some much more to talk about than the current dramas, which will pass.

        I have thought about cops ever since the Left drew a bead on them last year.

        I have concluded that if you have to deal with the slime of society continuously with your life constantly on the line, it changes your perspective. The real problem with the cops is not the cops, it is the attitude of the punks that they have to deal with.

        I would like to see on-going psych assessment to be done with all police to head off vindictiveness.

        Leftists do not get it at all. The condition of the streets is a war. PTSD affects cops just as much as soldiers. As usual, Leftists do not have a clue and are a continuing indication of the stupidification of the country.

  106. BackRowHeckler January 17, 2021 at 6:25 am #

    I’m not sure how true it is, but I’m seeing that Speaker Pelosi has released a list of words that cannot be spoken in the Halls of Congress, nouns like daughter and grandfather, pronouns like he and she. This is almost too bizarre to be believed. Has the Freak Show reached all the way up to the US Congress?

    And for the past 4 years the MSM has been telling us how President Trump embarrasses us in the eyes of the world. If true, Putin & Xi Jingping have to be getting a good laugh out of it.

      25% of the population of Israel is now vaccinated with Covid. Infection rate seems to be crashing last few days. Funny the vaccine seems to actually work. To think a country has a federal response to vaccinate their people for the good of society. A leader up to the task. Uh WOW!

      • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 17, 2021 at 3:58 pm #

        Um. They have 9 million people in Israel.

        USA has 36 times as many people as Israel does.

        USA has roughly five times Israel’s GDP.

        Math over “leadership”.

        Also – “Infection rate seems to be crashingover these last few days”…

            MrMango

            You strike me as reasonable.

            So I’m guessing you’d agree that whether people choose to take the vaccine, on the basis of their own risk assessment, or choose not to take it, on the basis of the same, that they should be accorded the same respect as sentient people making choices, as long as they’re not making ridiculous, unscientific claims on either side?

            And yes, that too is a run-on sentence, even if Q isn’t here to say so. 🙂

            My husband has a colleague of 35, with no known co-morbidities, who has long Covid. Because of it she is only able to work one session a week, and was bounced from a general practice job she was meant to take up once they found she had long Covid. Especially at this time, GP practices (which are private businesses, contracted to provide services to the NHS) can’t afford to be carrying someone who can’t do the sessions. Sad, but practical.

            I bet she wishes she’d had the opportunity to have the vaccination. She feels her life is screwed.

            About a quarter of the burgeoning Covid hospital cases in the UK just now are under the age of 55. I don’t call positive tests ‘cases’, but hospital cases I most certainly do. And the more people end up in hospital, the more cancer victims and heart and stroke victims are not going to get the care they need, so I bet most of them are grateful for the vaccination programme too, but probably wish it wasn’t going to take so long.

          • GreenAlba January 18, 2021 at 9:59 am #

            “Also, interesting choice of words: “vaccinated with Covid.””

            rocket, you don’t seem to get that there are a whole lot of people don’t want the vaccine, nor think it’s necessary for much of anything. It is, after all, a cold (literal definition of a coronovirus strain). Which apparently does affect some people very badly, and most others not so much at all. There are plenty of other colds and flus that do the same, and always have.

            I get it, I know many people with the same mindset you seem to have that it’s the solution to all the world’s health problems, and it must be embraced.

            Maybe. But you don’t know either.

            And it came out so fast (5-10x faster than any other standard vaccine, no time for any long-term side effect studies) that it puts forth two immediate conclusions:

            1. It is not possibly “safe”, by any historical vaccine standards.

            2. If it has been tested and is “safe”, someone was cooking it up a long time before the pandemic.

            Either idea should bring pause. Especially considering the apparent goal is to vaccinate the entire world with these potions. And right now, at that.

            But sure, screw Trump for not immediately forcing 100% vaccinations in a free country where medical choices are by law left up to individuals.

    Merkel lecturing the US social media companies on free speech.

    Get it? Germany plus lots of others lecturing the US, the light on the hill, on human rights.

    They are right too. Right now, one of the biggest impacts of the election and the DC politics is that these globalist aholes in Silicon Valley now run this country, not our elected officials.

    This Leftist revolution, for whatever cause, changes the US into the monitored dictatorship of Brave New World and 1984.

    The rest of the world, trained by a much saner USA, are showing much more wisdom than the US. They are in fear over the invasion of the Silicon Valley power mongers and I hope put up barriers to their incursions.

          • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 17, 2021 at 4:20 pm #

            I agree that will change, ak…but

            Not until something forces us to do it. We have two, maybe three generations now that haven’t seen any real “traditional historical” trouble in their lifetimes (namely “all-out war”, and the actual implications of that on a people). 9/11 was huge, but more as a mindfuck than changing the way we look at our personal responsibilities, who we once were and now are..

            We’re soft as a whole population, and have come to trust that “other people will make things better” if we let them.

            History says no to that.

            War has got to be the worst thing ever devised. But it apparently gets shit done and turns children into adults for a generation or two…then they die off and if things are good enough people forget what all of that really meant.

          • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 17, 2021 at 4:25 pm #

            What I’m saying is that Elysium, Hunger Games, and eventually WALL-E are much closer on the future calendar than they seemed when we first watched them. At least in the short term. Then people get tired of everything for real and things change. For a while. Repeat.

            We’re not at a good part of that cycle if nobody cares or thinks nothing can happen to their daily normality.

          • MrMangoOnMyShoulder January 17, 2021 at 4:28 pm #

            Not to say we don’t still have plenty of tough people…we do. But they are very much in the minority now.

            Much easier to let someone else deal with the tough stuff. That bodes poorly.

          • akmofo January 17, 2021 at 5:02 pm #

            Mr M

            Yup. It’s not by accident that we are where we are. The fundamental problem is cultural. Everything else flows from there.

            Thanks to Hollyweird, corporate junk/fast phood, video games, infantile education, MSM disinformation, social isolation via fascist urban planning/architecture and the car culture, many Americans have lost their moral compass, have abrogated their civic responsibility allowing commie worms and fascist termites to freely proliferate, and in many cases in the gluttonous pursuit of shekels have tacitly joined the criminal mafia that is the Satanic left.

            It’s very easy to reverse all that. Much easier than most imagine. Don’t patronize people/corporations/institutions that are antithetical to God, your well-being, the Constitution and country. I put up a short list of commie/fascist corporations that should be boycotted. There are many many more names that can be put on such a list. Let’s start with the practical simple step of denying them our goodwill and our money.

  113. JohnAZ January 17, 2021 at 10:46 am #

    Interesting discussion. Bartiromo and Grenell.

    Who is the real enemy of the US, China or Russia?

    Conclusion, the Leftist conversion of Silicon Valley and the Bay Area, Pelosi’s, Feinstein, Swallwell, the social media is allowing the Chinese to buy and politic their way into the US.

    They have done the same thing to Canada and are taking it over from the west.

    Well said!

    I guess if you are a Leftist in this country, everything is just fine. 73 million folks do not think so.

    I consider these domestic people the most formidable foe the US has ever faced and if nor rebuffed will destroy this country.

    The trolls on the blog are counted amongst the enemy.

    • akmofo January 17, 2021 at 10:53 am #

      The real enemy is the one we don’t see and hear about:

      Aha, ignorance number two

      Gun salutes are used between nations to show respect, the military has used them for centuries. 21 gun salute is for a head of state, which Trump will still be. The gun salute at funerals is a mark of respect for the dead.

        Marlin, the browning of America is complete. The illegal immigrants all voted in this election, one way or the other. They will be counted in the census, another Trump defeat. The Dems are locked in now. They got away with the fraud this time. They will not have to worry at all next time as the floodgates are now open and any chance the demographics could elect another Conservative in this country is nil.

        The question for the future is what to do for the conservatives. There are no leaders, they are all Democrats now. Will Trump try to form a resistance to the Dems and RINOs? I hope not for his sake. Honestly, this country deserves what has happened to it.

    • Yohannon January 17, 2021 at 1:53 pm #

      And if one touched a Hispanic hair on their heads, you’d be arrested. By whom? By a cop of one kind of another.

      To you, cops are the Holy Grail. And whom does the Grail serve? Those who sign their checks. So as to whether cops or good or not depends on whether those whom they serve are good or not, right? As to what kind of orders they are given or not given?

      Thus cops are neutrals. Ciphers. Employees. Did I say bad? Or unnecessary? No I did not. Skilled labor, no doubt. One can admire skillful performance in any area without getting into hero worship. Fine for young boys of course, but grown men? Sad.

      They will crush Patriots when told to do so. Unless and until it becomes expedient for them not to do so. That is to say, if and when the Check Signers begin to lose. There was a great clip of the fall of some Communist regime – I can’t remember the City and Nation though. But towards the end, the Capitol was stormed (for real unlike what we just did) and the cops had their hands up. They were escorted away for their own protection. No anger. Professional revolutionaries – their new Check signers.

      Got it? You needed that. I know you’d prefer affirmative grunting, but things can’t always be the way we want. Truth must have its day too.
      And “Cops good!” just doesn’t have sufficient truth value to stand on its own.

    And there’s this:

    Beijing hit with the coldest temps. in 50 years as temps drop to -5° F.

    With that kind of coldness it’s going to be tough for the Climate Czar — John Kerry — to convince Xi Jingping to scrap his coal fired power plants and replace them with windmills because: THE WORLD IS ON FIRE!!

    Xi to John Kerry “Can you run a steel plant with windmills”

      A very interesting observation Brh! Climategate among the many gates meant to keep us in a spiritual, mental, and physical prison. And yet I can’t help thinking perhaps the evil Xi cares more about the well being of his people than Kerry could ever pretend too. Xi is building coal plants everywhere to keep China humming along whether good or bad or we like it or not. Chances are Xi will keep the lights on. Kerry on the other hand could care less if Americans freeze to death in the winter in darkness. He wants us to eat worms and bugs to survive.

    Hang on Patriots… America is going down the biggest rabbit hole this country has ever seen. We are being led by the corrupt anti-American clowns that were just elected. At the end of this rabbit hole is “The Great Reset” (see the World Economic Forum’s charter). The World Economic Forums’ mantra is “Build Back Better”… This is relevant in that it’s the same slogan that Joe, Head of the Biden Crime Family, used during the latter part of his pathetic basement campaign.

    If you want a taste of “The Great Reset”, just research China’s “Credit Scoring System”. America’s new Marxist/Maoist inspired leaders are using Climate Change and now COVID to herd all “Useless Eaters and Deplorables” into a Corporatocracy arrangement where Governments are in collusion with Big Business control everything in our lives.

      I guess that is what Dick Tuck, Scrooge et al really want. They do not care whether liberty exists or not. They must be big time gimmes, willing to trade their freedom for goodies.

      They do not understand that if you do away with freedom, the goodies disappear too. The most arrogant attitude I know right now is that of the Marxists trying to convince people that all those socialistic failures were flukes and they have all the answers to make it work.

      Just like Lenin, Stalin, Kruschev, Castro, Venezuela, Hitler, George 3, Napoleon.

        “There are a lot of things that don’t even come close to adding up. Sit tight.”

        I don’t know what is not “adding up”, but I can’t see how there can be anything game-changing in the few days remaining. There certainly won’t be any military action against Biden – it was always a fanciful idea, and anyway they’re all deployed to protect Biden from the enraged mobs!

        Insurrection Act? EO13848? Something else? Totally unlikely.

        The Ratcliffe DNI Report also seems less than compelling … there might well have been electoral interference (attempted anyway) from Russia and/or China, but in support of whom?

        Anyway, there might well have also been interference in 2016, but it didn’t change the result – Donald Trump was inaugurated.

        I’m more interested in what pardons are going to happen between now and Wednesday morning, and whether Donald Trump is going for a self-pardon. It’s high risk.

        • Night Owl January 17, 2021 at 5:49 pm #

          Yes, little man.

          Trump is sending his MAGA army in from Middle America to swamp the Capitol City. Thousands of families and a few self-styled militia men who the Capitol police would arrest on-site.

          That is why Joe Biden called in 25k in national guard, Ospreys, F16s, armored vehicles with 50 cal. guns.

          Numbers and weapons reserved for a theater of war. Called in by a cabbage with no authority to do so, and who has not even taken office.

          • Redneck Liberal January 17, 2021 at 7:09 pm #

            Here’s akmofo spouting off on the 15th:
            “There will be no inauguration on the 20th in light of the information President Trump is now declassifying and making public. Also on the 20th, President Trump’s presidency will end. The US will then come under Military Rule and Marshal Law, until the election results are properly examined and properly determined to be legal or not.”

            and your most insightful reply:

            A very likely scenario given the latest info.
            We know they can prove the fraud, so a forensic audit will seal it for Trump.
            Biden cancelling the Inaugural rehearsal was a big tip-off.

            “That is why Joe Biden called in 25k in national guard, Ospreys, F16s, armored vehicles with 50 cal. guns.”

            I’m not sure Joe Biden as President-elect has “called in” anything – the Inauguration has been scaled down (primarily for Covid-19 reasons, but also for security concerns following the storming of the US Capitol on 6 January).

            The Inauguration team would be discussing security in great deal with law enforcement – plus DHS and the National Guard. Would you expect anything else after the events of 6 January?

            The Trump administration would have approved (or agreed with) the military and security measures being taken. I trust it will be a storm in a teacup, and there won’t be riots and violence in any state or DC.

    A precedent?

    In 1965, A Democrat, LBJ, used a phony excuse in the Tonkin Gulf to get power for his presidency. We ended up 58000 folks dead and ten years in a war in which we never lost a battle but lost the war. McNamara and history have confessed that the incident was a lie and a set up by the Dems for power.

    Now we have the Capitol riot, just as phony!!

Just like the phony Tonkin Gulf incident, just like Ws weapons of mass destruction etc, etc. In the scheme of things, this riot was nothing compared to the riots last summer. It is just drummed up by the Deep State.

          Are you willing to give up your independence to the whims of the Deep State? I hope not for your sake.

    Sky News in Australia has video of Biden from a few days ago, he appears wobbly and confused, doesn’t seem to know where is.

    What, didn’t see it on CNN?

    How long do you think this guy will be around? Does it matter if the president has dementia? Woodrow Wilson had a stroke 2 years into his 2nd term, after that, executive decisions were made by a political operator named ‘Colonel House’, and his wife. For the past 4 years a group of psychiatrists at Yale have been claiming President Trump is mentally unfit to be president and want him removed; they even wrote a book about it, hoping it would move Congress to invoke the 25th amendment. Will they harass Biden the same way?

    In the last 5 days in an unprecedented and systematic manner Iranian military assets in the Middle East are being eliminated by Israel US Britain Australia UAE Greece Cyprus, dulling Iran’s counter-attack capabilities. This is done in preparation for the elimination of Iran’s nuclear assets in Iran proper. Iran’s reaction so far has been non-existent.

      Why would they want to react to some stunts by the hollywood armed forces of Israel?

      Instead of making peace with Iran.. I have no idea what Israel is thinking.

      What makes you think Iran doesn’t have nukes?

      Ever since the Paks tested theirs, Iran was in fear of its overpopulated neighbour. Being ayatollahs, they would rather use Israel as an excuse.

      And consider an even wider picture. Many in the field in india are Muslims with a deep hatred of pakistan, and India is still VERY close with Iran.

      Modi stunt with u.s is just that. They want to one-up the Chinese and Russia is ok with it.

    How long after Biden the idiot makes an attempt to buddy up with Iran do you think that Israel will take things into their own hands? I would imagine they have MOAB and cave busters now to wipe out the nuclear capability of Iran. Letting John Kerry anywhere near the State Department would be a major disaster for the Middle East which has been settling down over the past year or so.

    Unfortunately, the anti- European slant of the Democrats hates the Israelis. When they take the pro-Iran, anti-Israel position of Obama, Israel will take care of themselves, as they always have.

    • akmofo January 17, 2021 at 10:33 pm #

      The big issue with Iran is not taking out its nuclear sites, the big issue is taking out its counter attack capabilities which are scattered all over the Middle East (missile bases), Europe & Americas (terror cells), and cyber (hackers). My guess is that by the 20th, them Iranian nuclear sites will be taken out.

    Covid-19 doesn’t exist. Or if it does, it’s just another common cold strain. There IS an uptick of poor health, though. The symptoms of so-called Covid-19 are paralleled by those of thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency. Old people gasping for air and dying of “Covid” are actually in the late stages of beri beri, exacerbated by media fear, as overseen by Fauci et al.

        I’ve known a few who’ve caught it. They promptly recovered, as do almost every person under 80 y o that’s relatively healthy.

        A bad cold or flu can be nasty for an older person with co-morbidities.

          I know no one who has caught it.

          German authorities are only testing now if there are flu/cold symptoms present, and they are highly cautious about labelling the result Coroneau.

          The PCR test has officially been labelled unreliable by the WHO.

          I occasionally still see a sad sack or two walking around with a mask on, but it is starting to become a rare site outside of major metro areas where the fearful pod-dwellers reside.

      Easily the most asinine post on this blog.

    Well, Americans the moment I met few back in 1988 never made impression as educated, widely read people with broad views.on every my arguement I only got red propaganda meme.
    Here, 34 years later and it is even worse. You are being dragged face against concrete by capitalistic liberalism gone mad and attribute it to so called “left” who is financed by your beloved olygarchs with goal to divide and rule.
    Mentioning some dissidentes as proof of our lack of freedom in Soviet times is utterly stupid. Now you will have your dissidents who are in vast minority brainwashing and forcing you to accept their degenerate views. Majority has right to protect oneself against such people degenerate minority. but you all being individualistic to the core do not get it. As my commander used to say, from rear end via beating it will get to your head. You are getting into times where you are going to learn or perish. Good luck.
    Regarding Putin telling lies about USSR. It is done so that he and his cronies could keep stolen loot and power indefinitely.

    So, it’s lunchtime in DC on the last day of the Trump Shitshow Administration.

    And despite all the fevered imaginings of perennial losers like Night Owl & akmofo, The Donald is hitching his last free ride on the taxpayers’ dime on AF1 early tomorrow morning.

    The invitations to his big send off party at Andrews have apparently not generated much in the way of RSVPs. Is there a pool on how many will show up? The only people likely to show – the insurrectionists and other delusionals – wouldn’t be invited (too low class!). Maybe Roger Stone? Maybe Rudi (even after being stiffed so publicly)? The Mooch isn’t going, even though he was invited, much to his dismay! Everyone is instructed to bring 5 guests with them. It’ll be his most pathetic “rally” yet.

    I was sort of hoping his departure wouldn’t get any publicity (i.e. tv screen time) – he’d REALLY hate that! – but it’s going to be such a humiliation for him. Surrounded by his soon-to-be-ex-wife and his not-at-all psychotic kids, with a one-man-band playing Hail to the Chief, a 2 pop-gun salute, and some stained reddish linoleum. Who could miss this spectacle?

      Speaking of shit shows look in the mirror you still have some brown stuff on your nose and some anal hair stuck in your teeth so far up ugly kid Joes ass you are.
