THIS IS MORE LIKE IT

       Contrary to what many believe, a lot of us who've opposed the New Right and dare to criticize Trump 47 actually do wish that Trump 45 would come back. Trump's previous term actually did have a strong populist element; and the Globalists, Red Pills, and other assorted extremists were the ones sitting outside the fence throwing stones. That situation has very much been reversed, to put it mildly. 

       Thus when the President signed another Executive Order yesterday, we feared for the worst despite the superficial positive opening. After reading the official statement from the White House and the Executive Order itself (three times to make certain that I wasn't dreaming), it almost felt like 2017 all over again. 

       "Endemic vagrancy, disorderly behavior, sudden confrontations, and violent attacks have made our cities unsafe.  The number of individuals living on the streets in the United States on a single night during the last year of the previous administration — 274,224 — was the highest ever recorded.  The overwhelming majority of these individuals are addicted to drugs, have a mental health condition, or both.  Nearly two-thirds of homeless individuals report having regularly used hard drugs like methamphetamine, cocaine, or opioids in their lifetimes.  An equally large share of homeless individuals reported suffering from mental health conditions.  The Federal Government and the States have spent tens of billions of dollars on failed programs that address homelessness but not its root causes, leaving other citizens vulnerable to public safety threats.

Shifting homeless individuals into long-term institutional settings for humane treatment through the appropriate use of civil commitment will restore public order.  Surrendering our cities and citizens to disorder and fear is neither compassionate to the homeless nor other citizens.  My Administration will take a new approach focused on protecting public safety."

      The 'new approach' is summarized as follows:

• The Order directs the Attorney General to reverse judicial precedents and end consent decrees that limit State and local governments’ ability to commit individuals on the streets who are a risk to themselves or others.  
• The Order requires the Attorney General to work with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, and the Secretary of Transportation to prioritize grants for states and municipalities that enforce prohibitions on open illicit drug use, urban camping and loitering, and urban squatting, and track the location of sex offenders.
• The Order redirects funding to ensure that individuals camping on streets and causing public disorder and that are suffering from serious mental illness or addiction are moved into treatment centers, assisted outpatient treatment, or other facilities.
• The Order ensures discretionary grants for substance use disorder prevention, treatment, and recovery do not fund drug injection sites or illicit drug use.
• The Order stops sex offenders who receive homelessness assistance from being housed with children, and allows programs to exclusively house women and children.

       This move was long overdue. The scourge of homelessness/vagrancy has been a blot on our society for far too long, and the President is correct in saying that the policies pretending to address the problem have failed. Of the number of around 275,000 cited in Executive Order, it's estimated that about 1/2 to 2/3 of that total infest the West Coast. Some cities in California, Oregon, and Washington have become virtually uninhabitable because of it. 

     More to the point, the Executive Order goes beyond the superficial element of enforcement: it emphasizes rehabilitation and treatment for addiction and mental illness---things which none of the progressive policies promoted by the West Coast's Democrat Establishment ever bothered to address. In many ways, it's reminiscent of the successful campaign against the Opioid Crisis which saw overdose deaths and addiction rates decline between 2017-2019.

    Let's hope that this implemented and we'll be watching to see if it all goes off as planned. As was true of the anti-Opioid Program under Trump 45, there were a lot of vested interests who don't want such beneficial policies to succeed. As long as those interests can't interfere, this can nothing but improve Quality of Life for millions. 

WHITHER GOETH NEW YORK?

     This has been one of those weeks where things have happened faster than most of us can keep up with them. The new Operation Warp Speed is speeding us all into the Great Reset much faster than the lethargic Biden Government was doing. This week, the Republicans rounded out filling top posts: among them an operative of BlackRock as policy manager at the State Department. Mark Zuckerberg, one of the latest globalist oligarchs to join Team Woke, contributed a million into the Coronation Ceremonies in January; while WEF linchpin Marc Benioff dedicated an issue of his news outlet Time Magazine to celebrate the Trump Victory. Just four years ago, of course, Benioff dedicated an issue of Time to bragging about how he and Zuckerberg helped Biden 'win,' but these peccadilloes can be overlooked. 

     Trump went to Wall Street today to address the de facto US Government, and likely to still fears swelling among many of the Oligarchy after the assassination of the CEO of United Health Care. The Media has been clutching their bowties nervously because their usual sensationalism about such crimes hasn't had the desired effect. 

      It seems that the public, in this particular case, isn't expressing a great deal of sympathy for the slain CEO. The scum in the Corporate Mainstream Media variously have been trying to explain this phenomenon away by claiming either that such an outpouring of sentiment is "hate-filled extremism" (no doubt fomented by Russian or Chinese operatives) or as "frustration with our national healthcare system." The Controlled Opposition Media---which has a polar opposite reaction whenever a rich guy does the same to a poor one--- is portraying the victim as a heroic martyr just doing his job who was brutally gunned down by an envious Left-Wing Whacko. 

    The whole affair reminded me of an interview with Richard Nixon shortly after Lee Harvey Oswald was shot. Nixon said:

    "The man who was guilty of murdering our president deserved to die, but under our system he was entitled to a trial. Two wrongs don't make a right. As much as all Americans wanted to see the President's murderer brought to justice, under the circumstances, we deplore the law being taken into the hands of a man...It is my hope that all Americans will use that day {Day of Mourning declared by President Johnson} to pledge ourselves to fight this tendency towards hatred and violence that we saw evidenced in the last few days."

   My own thoughts are similar to Nixon's. The CEO of United Health Care meeting his demise in front of a firing squad after a fair trial would have been appropriate. The issue here, however, is that we don't have a functioning legal system like we had in 1963; and back then the Government actually reined in predatory Corporations. Also, the tendency that Nixon described then is a New Normal today---in fact one actually encouraged by the Government. 

   The "frustrations" that Americans feel is not solely with the Health Care System: it is rooted in deep-seated anger against a system in its entirety which no longer represents them or even especially cares about them. In fact, I would say that contempt probably describes the general attitude best that just about anyone in any position of power holds towards anyone who doesn't hold power.

   The reality---which most Americans probably will avoid facing---however, is that this situation is largely self-inflicted. Americans for the most part have abandoned any sense of community or any sense of responsibility to a Higher Power and engaged in a sort of war of all-against-all in the pursuit of egotistical greed and personal narcissistic gain. I would wager that the majority of those calling for the targeting of the CEOs would behave exactly like these executives do if they came into their positions themselves. 

   A Dead White Male spoke of another society much like ours today which it wouldn't hurt to quote here: "They had seen a single lawless will, unchecked by constitutional restraints or ordinary human feeling making sport of the lives and fortunes of men. They had seen the sons of the proudest families selling their ancestral honor for their lives, betraying their nearest and dearest and kissing the hand reeking with innocent blood. They saw that for the last several years, with brief intervals, virtue had been exiled or compelled to hide itself in impotent seclusion, and that power and wealth had been the reward of perfidy and self-abasement."

    That author was describing Ancient Rome under the likes of Caligula and Nero, but the passage was striking because it describes so succinctly the American Culture that we have seen develop since the previous quote from Nixon. The Romans were able to turn themselves around and saw better days for the next few centuries, whether we do or not is another matter. In Rome's case, a group who cared about the direction of their country ejected the ruling dynasty and instituted reforms. They did not do as both wings of our Uniparty want to do: seize power to replace one group of villains with another. 

   Americans have to face the fact that our culture cannot---and never can---function as long as the majority are bent on outsourcing their inalienable human rights to whichever powerful clique favors them. The idolatry of Wealth and Power led to what happened in New York and drove the ruthless exploitation carried out by United Health Care and is also driving the bloodthirsty calls for revenge. If it were anything else, the debate would be focused upon rational reforms instead of one side demanding a police-state crackdown and the other demanding lynch-mobs. 

   Despite what many want to believe, the Incoming Government shows no indication that it has any intention of reversing any of these trends, in fact, in some cases it seems inclined to accelerate them. The Party Platform adopted at this Summer's Convention scornfully rejected everything but top-down solutions and openly embraced Woke ideology; that the appointment of nearly two dozen globalist Oligarchs to key positions (positions liberally salted with Christian Nationalists and other fanatics) ought to tell anybody that change is not coming from the top. It needs to come from within ourselves first and foremost. 

   

   

    

  

THE TRUMP SHOOTING AND THE STRATEGY OF TENSION

       Yesterday, in the middle of a speech outside Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, President-in-Exile Trump and three others were shot by a local dirtbag. One is dead, two in critical condition, and Trump was left with an injury to his ear. The Whacko Left Wing has been all over Social Media displaying their various mental disorders for all to see; while the Controlled Opposition---never letting a good crisis go to waste---is exploiting the tragedy for all of the political capital that they can possibly squeeze out of it. 

     In a degenerated culture like ours, these kinds of events are bound to happen. With both factions of the Uniparty playing to the lowest common denominators in society and to the worst elements in human nature, it should come as no surprise that political violence is going to occur. For the past few weeks, the Corporate Media and the Left in general have been calling for this very thing. Their denunciations of the shooting only add hypocrisy to their other crimes.

    The Controlled Opposition has been playing the hypocritical game too. Despite all of their fake outrage, they not only egg on political violence, they defend it when it actually occurs. Names like George Allen Kelley, or Daniel Perry, or Michael Cassidy, among others, come to mind. 

    Aside from the mendacity and the mercenary attitudes of the Political Class, what we really witnessed on Saturday was another manifestation of the Strategy of Tension.  The Wikipedia site summarizes the Strategy of Tension as "a political policy wherein violent struggle is encouraged rather than suppressed. The purpose is to create a general feeling of insecurity in the population and make people seek security in a strong government."

   This should be concerning to us all as the recently-adopted Republican Party Platform has abandoned, along with most social issues, standing against fiscal responsibility and the growth of the Police State. It should be noted too that the five finalists for Trump's Vice-Presidential selection are all Big-Government, authoritarian-leaning RINOs; and yesterday's shooting should remind us how easily any one of them could assume the Oval Office. 

   We must now especially guard ourselves against Reactionary elements. Two wrongs don't make a right; and our focus should be centered on stopping the elements within our Deep State who profit off of sowing violence and division.

 

DRUG ADDICTS DESTROY SEATTLE ART GALLERY

    Just we thought that things couldn't sink much lower here in the Exceptional United States, news came from Seattle yesterday that some homeless bums high on who-knows-what drugs started a fire in an alleyway which ended up burning the Davidson Art Gallery. The extent of the damage is unknown, but priceless paintings by Rembrandt and Picasso were destroyed. The verminous Seattle Media naturally showed more sympathy for the dope-heads than they did for the irreplaceable cultural losses sustained. Picasso and Rembrandt are only Dead White Males anyway; and the City needs to move on to more pressing things like banning lawn mowers to fight Climate Change.

   In an actually sane society, drug addicts wouldn't be running wild on City Streets and starting fires to begin with. Unfortunately, we're long past that point in the US. Homeless Advocacy is a flourishing business on the Left. The Right wants to get such people off the streets---as long as that doesn't involve actually paying for the facilities needed to do it. With one side profiting off the problem and the other unwilling to do anything about it, tragedies like this will keep happening and likely with greater frequency.

   Midway through January, I don't think many of us are going to argue that 2024 has gotten off to a great start. In fact, it's been like this since the start of this decade, if not the whole of the 21st Century in our corner of the world. Americans seem to have gone through a collective Nervous Breakdown at some point. Four years ago in the same city of Seattle, a gang of Anarchist thugs took over a whole neighborhood, proclaimed it an independent country, and carried out a Reign of Terror for nearly two months. This year, Right-Wing anarchists have gone even further, taking over an entire State. The head of the Pentagon ended up in the hospital without even notifying his own superiors; meanwhile the mighty American military has been humbled by such world-class powers as the Yemeni Army, Hamas, and the Iraqi Resistance Militia. As if to underscore the situation here, the Junta's Foreign Minister Antony Blinken gave a speech to his bosses at the World Economic Forum today claiming that the world wants more US interference. Blinken left the conference two hours later only to find that his Boeing 737 had broken down on the runway. 

   The American public response to all of this is reminiscent of a Nervous Breakdown: a general apathy at one disaster after another on the one hand, and outraged hostility at anyone who disrupts the illusion of tranquility and security by pointing out the facts. 

    Recently, I came across an article written during the Scamdemic where a writer suggested that repeated national traumas that we have been exposed to during the last 40-50 years have resulted in what sociologists term Anomia. Anomia, in a clinical sense, is a condition experienced by those who have broken under stressful losses or disruptions: 

   "Anomia exhibits self-centeredness, reduction in altruism and compassion, distrust of others, apathy or hyperactivity or a vacillation between both, and can develop alienation and anger.  Another characteristic is a shortened time depth.  The past is irrelevant as a guide in rapidly changing circumstances where rules are too few or too many and may be in conflict. The future is unpredictable. However, a romanticized nostalgia can develop along with a desire to recreate an idealized by-gone state. The norms attributed to that idealized state represent a comforting order.  They establish true north no matter what the compass indicates. Living in an anomic world, it is each one for one’s self.  Not surprising, one doesn’t have much time or emotional energy for others. Lack of compassion has become a lamented trait in contemporary American society."  

   That description certainly does seem to have become a New Normal in American society. Anomia is deliberately encouraged under our system of Inverted Totalitarianism through the Strategy of Tension. The problem, though, with the Trauma Theory advocated by the author of the cited article is that it overlooks that the 18th, 19th, and early 20th Centuries were also periods of collective stresses and social changes. Some of these were even greater than we face today. Yet Anomia wasn't an American characteristic then---far from it. The earlier periods were characterized by American ability to come together and solve problems and devise new and bold means to do it. 

   Alfred Adler, now another Dead White Male but once a leading social psychologist, pointed out that stress alone could not account for the differences in reactions to it. For example, a girl who grows up in a sexually abusive home may become a hater of all men and turn to prostitution, lesbianism, or radical Feminism. Yet there many others who go the opposite way and become very devoted mothers, model wives, and productive members of society. The common denominator in both situations is that the trauma existed, but the reactions reflect two different drives to cope with it. Adler believed that humans possess an innate awareness of their own inferiority and that human development is a striving to overcome that. His beliefs are paralleled in many religious teachings about human consciousness of sin and the desire to reconcile with God.

   Anomia, on both the personal and sociological levels is induced less by stress and trauma than by what is popularly known as Learned Helplessness. Traumatic events can cause Learned Helplessness, but generally it is almost invariably the product of intentional manipulation. In such a condition, the victim suppresses his innate will to work toward achievement and resigns himself to his fate. In the broader sociopolitical application, Learned Helplessness is the complimentary antipode of the Strategy of Tension. The state of powerlessness is intolerable for a person and is bound to release itself in anger and rage. The manufactured fear and crises encouraged by the Elites provides a managed outlet for that rage. Thus it happens that the majority of Seattle residents and Americans generally can look up the cultural loss of the Davidson Art Gallery with an indifferent shrug, while others take to fighting among themselves while never addressing the situation that give rise to the disaster in the first place. 

   Before the Rent-a-Skeptic crowd chimes in with their eye-rolls and sneers, consider that this dynamic as a deliberate social policy is nothing new. Most of our forefathers lived under exactly such a system. The Royal degenerates of Mediaeval times used to decorate themselves with crowns, expensive clothes and jewels, and live in walled castles high above the common man and travel with elaborate carriage-trains. They hired educated sophists to overawe the population with learned sophistication: all of this was intentionally designed to emphasize that resistance to such superior and powerful beings was futile. 

   The founders of modern self-governing republics liberated themselves and their countries by exposing the illusion of powerlessness and the fraud behind the contrived fears. That is precisely what our generation needs to do; reject these charlatans and understand that we don't need them or their fake solutions.

  This realization is exactly what the Oligarchy most fears, and to that end, their top leaders at this year's World Economic Forum Meeting has declared that restoring faith in institutions is the top agenda item for 2024. Coming on the heels of last year's theme of combating disinformation, one can see that the Elites are growing a little concerned that too many of us are starting to see through their smokescreens and reflecting upon the fates of previous autocratic leaders may be causing them a few sleepless nights. 

   There's no doubt that the Oligarchs are going to react in some form, but what's more important is how we react. Disengage, disunite, disjoin from their programs as much as possible. Reject the Narratives and don't enable them by participating in their farces. If they force you, obey; but never volunteer. Take initiative to deal with problems without them whenever possible. Enough people who take this approach will grind their Great Reset to a halt and encourage others to resist. 

   A good example on an international scale occurred this week when Turkey announced a boycott of the WEF Annual Meeting. In response to a nationwide movement, the Turkish Government also recently cancelled federal contracts with WEF-connected firms like Nestle and Coca-Cola. There are several similar movements throughout the world with online lists of companies to avoid circulating along with encouragement to buy local. We need such a spirit here, too; and if we really hope to make America great again, this is the approach that we must take. 

    

   

    

     

UMM...OK, NOW THE BIDEN IMPEACHMENT

     So, after refusing to challenge the obviously fraudulent 2020 'election', remaining silent while political protesters were locked up for two years under inhuman conditions before being sentenced to long prison terms by kangaroo courts, and generally adopting a go-along-to-get-along policy with the Junta; the Republican Party leadership is growing concerned. Most of their constituency doesn't trust them anymore---which ordinarily wouldn't really concern them too much. The recent Trump Indictment, however, has many of them nervous about saving their own hides because the Trump Drama is proving that nobody is untouchable if they should get in the New Order's way.

   Thus, they've decided to play the 'Impeachment Card' again. Not that Biden isn't guilty of numerous crimes; but the Republicans have to work under the same handicap that they suffered during the previous Clinton Impeachment: exposure of the actual crimes would implicate too many of their own members, so the issue legally has to be vague enough to confound the average Ameroboob while rife with enough gutter-level sexual innuendo and salacious tell-all bedroom stories to grab the usual voyeuristic headlines which fixate American attention.

     Now, the official narrative coming from the RNC is that, following Obama's successful staging of a Color Revolution in Ukraine in 2014, then Vice-President Biden's son, Hunter, bribed off officials of the new Regime to protect Corporate Oil interests (as if Republican leaders weren't guilty of the same thing). In reality, Obama and Biden should have been impeached then; because (I think anyway) it's still illegal for Americans to stage foreign coups on behalf of Corporate interests. 

  18 US Code, para.956: (b) "Whoever, within the jurisdiction of the United States, conspires with one or more persons, regardless of where such other person or persons are located, to damage or destroy specific property situated within a foreign country and belonging to a foreign government or to any political subdivision thereof with which the United States is at peace, or any railroad, canal, bridge, airport, airfield, or other public utility, public conveyance, or public structure, or any religious, educational, or cultural property so situated, shall, if any of the conspirators commits an act within the jurisdiction of the United States to effect any object of the conspiracy, be imprisoned not more than 25 years."

  But---the Red Tsunami which came in in 2010 didn't see fit to do anything, either: so...fast forward to today. According to Head-of-State Biden, neither he nor his son did anything illegal; because, thanks again to a Republican-dominated Supreme Court, in 2016 political bribery effectively became legalized. Biden's actions in 2014, therefore, become an Ex Post Facto crime and are no longer enforceable; hence this Impeachment is going nowhere---in fact, it's probably not intended to. 

  The Impeachment is another publicity stunt, another abuse of the legal system, further dumbing-down of popular discourse and substituting legal chicanery to gain political ends. True, we expect the Whacko Left to resort to such sleazy tactics; but we need to be better than this. Our side needs to start standing up like men; stop pandering to the sordid tastes of the degenerate culture and try elevating it with some constructive solutions, personal responsibility, and standing up for their's (and our's) Rights. 

  I'm not expecting that to happen. It seems that with gasoline at $6/gallon, bread at $5/loaf. butter at $9/lb., bacon at $11/lb., schools and infrastructure collapsing, cancel culture and the Gay Mafia running wild, and out-of-control crime---there are more important things to worry about than listening to lurid stories about Hunter Biden smoking crack cocaine with whores---which is probably what many (if not most) of our own neighbors are doing. 

  Our problems are not going to be solved by litigation any more than they'll be solved by politics. Our national problems are based in issues of character, and are spiritual at their root. A corrupt Government is the outgrowth of a corrupt society; and that is what has to change. 

SEPTEMBER 11th AND THE OUT-OF-TOUCH RIGHT

      Yesterday marked the anniversaries of two important turning-points in American history. 22 years before, in 2001, the greatest mass-murder in American history occurred when four airliners were hijacked and rammed into buildings in New York and Washington. The Bush Administration reacted with an unprecedented power-grab, which continues to this day and his been expanded upon considerably. While previous Presidents also assumed extraordinary powers during times of national crisis; they had limitations on how far or for how long such powers could be extended. The Bush policy was unique in that de facto Martial Law was extended indefinitely and without public oversight.

     Eleven years to the day before, in 1990, the father of the aforementioned Bush gave an infamous address to the nation, basically admitting that the US Deep State was now in charge and that we were entering a New World Order wherein it would be accountable to no one. Pundits of that day were proclaiming the End of History and the Pax Americana, which were academic sound-bites meaning that the US Deep State was now the world power, and on both a global and national scale, submission to their will was to be predestined order of things. Junior's policies post 9/11 were reflections of that very blueprint; and the Democrats of the Clinton, Gore, Kerry, Obama, and Biden variety adopted the same philosophy, although their term for it is Neoliberalism. The 'Great Reset' is the final convergence of the permanent Deep State and Cartel Capitalism, where political and economic power are concentrated in the hands of the few.

       Shortly after President Trump was removed from Office, we said here at the time that the only hope that the Republican Party had---if it ever wanted to be a viable political movement again---was to do two things: 

       1. Repudiate the Neoconservatives and their hangers-on in the Alt Right;

       2. Publicly admit to their own complicity in subverting our republican system; and taking a pledge to undo the policies that they previously promoted; and to restore Constitutional order. 

      Unfortunately, neither of these things have happened; and these yo-yo's are talking blithely about a 2024 'Red Tsunami'. The current leader of the GOP 'candidates' is about to be purged: jailed and disqualified from office; while of the next two 'front-runners;' one is a WEF Young Global Leader and the other is a stooge of the Bush Machine. 

     What's even worse is that the self-styled intellectuals on the Right are the ones pushing the 'double-down' approach. Victor Davis Hanson, for example, graced us all again yesterday with an article titled The Frightened Left. An intriguing, title: frankly, though, I haven't seen much evidence that the Left is especially afraid of doing much of anything. Hanson is fancied by many on the Right as the philosophical heir to William F. Buckley, though the comparison is about as apt as comparing Stephen Colbert to James Madison. 

    The conclusion one draws from all of Hanson's writings is that everything wrong in America suddenly appeared---like Spontaneous Generation---from 2021 forward, and that our only national salvation lies in returning the Neocons to power. I'm certain that all of us remember those halcyon days of the Bush Years: the Government was noted for its transparency; there was no runaway price inflation; human rights and the Constitution were deeply respected; schools functioned perfectly; jobs were plentiful and well-paid, as all the American workers sang for joy in factory and field and all the girls were innocent virgins. Thanks largely to our servile media, and Americans' attention-spans and memories hopelessly being crippled by the concentrations of fat in their brains and their addiction to narcotics that academics can get away with spouting this kind of nonsense. 

    I have return to an observation on the excesses of the French Revolution explained by Dead White Male and Founding Father Thomas Paine, because understanding this point explains a lot of the actions taken by the current US Government:

   "Let us therefore examine how men came by the idea of punishing others in this manner. They learn it from the governments that they live under; and retaliate with the punishments that they have been accustomed to behold. The heads stuck upon pikes which remained for years on the Temple-Bar differ nothing in the horror of the scenes of the heads being carried about on pikes in the Paris streets: yet this was done by the English government. It may be said that it signifies nothing to a man what is done to him after he is dead; but it signifies much to the living. It either tortures their feelings or it hardens their hearts; in either case, it instructs them how to punish when power falls into their hands. Lay then the axe to the root, and teach governments humanity. It is their sanguinary punishments which corrupt mankind."

   Back during the Post-9/11 Hysteria, many of us warned that the powers being assumed by the Federal Government could someday pass into the hands of the Militant Left and be turned against us. If Hanson had been paying attention back then instead of whooping it up at Country Club Golf Courses and on Luxury Cruises, he might have remembered the policies pursued by the Neocon Establishment were the precedents for everything that he wails about today and imagines were innovations brought in with the Biden Junta.

   Hanson, for example, speaks of the misuse of Impeachment and says: "In modern times, the nation has not rushed to impeach a president without a special counsel investigation to determine whether the chief executive was guilty of Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors. But thanks to the Democrats, recent impeachments now have destroyed all those guardrails." Apparently, Hanson has forgotten that only 25 years ago, the Republicans---for wholly political reasons---launched a ridiculous attempt to impeach President Clinton. 

  What did Paine say again about "it instructs them how to punish when power falls into their hands?" That shameful event was followed quickly by Congress punting their responsibility to settle the disputed 2000 Election into the hands of the Court; and the Democrats learned from the examples our side set that litigation can be weaponized in place of voting and debate. 

  The rest of Hanson's article is a tedious laundry-list of crimes that the Democrats are committing that he wishes that Republicans could still get away with doing. This is why we've insisted that for the GOP to regain any credibility (and time is rapidly running out for them to do this) is to repudiate the Neocon past. Our side complains ad nauseam about the Left 'weaponizing' all of our institutions: yet I can't think of a single example where our side didn't provide them with the weapons to do it with. 

  Like Hitler's rise to power which established Nazi Germany, everything being done to establish the Great Reset is being done according to legal precedent. The Weimar Republic's Constitution technically was in effect until 1945; a dead letter, to be sure, but it was never abolished; and the Third Reich was established according to precedents set during the Weimar Republic. Hitler governed by authority of Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution, which stated: “If public security and order are seriously disturbed or endangered within the German Reich, the President of the Reich may take measures necessary for their restoration, intervening if need be with the assistance of the armed forces.” It also allowed the President to suspend civil liberties guaranteed in the Weimar Constitution; and President Friedrich Ebert had invoked it during the hyperinflation of 1923 and President Paul von Hindenburg invoked it on occasion thereafter. Shortly after Hitler was elected in 1933, the Nazi Party in the Parliament passed the Enabling Act of 1933, which allowed the Nazi Government to pass and enact laws without Congressional approval. That law was challenged and upheld by the Weimar Supreme Court. 

  Post 9/11 especially, we saw much the same thing. It was the Bush Administration which normalized the use of torture and the suspensions of Due Process. They normalized Domestic Espionage, they authorized the Executive Branch (i.e. the Deep State) to enact laws, spend tax dollars, and order military interventions without Congressional approval. They established blacklists and surveillance of dissidents. They expanded outsourcing and Private Public Partnerships which helped the Corporate Oligarchy to establish the foothold it has over the United States today. The Bush Administration gave governors the power to declare 'states of emergency' unilaterally and suspend republican government, as we saw during the Scamdemic. They expanded the Government and financial octopus' tentacles into the public schools and universities. 

  As for the Clinton and Obama Administrations, let us not forget that both had majority Republican Congresses and Senates for 6 of their 8-year terms, and that US Supreme Court was a Republican Majority that entire time. 

 No, the Left isn't afraid of us now; and we have no one to blame but ourselves. This owning the Libtards and business as usual strategy will fail, regardless of which Party the Oligarchs choose to govern us in 2024. It's merely continuing the same cycle of bad and irresponsible government that got us where we are.

    

     

A WEEKEND RECAP AND A QUESTION

       This week we've been writing mostly about Summit Meetings and various positive developments abroad. Here's a roundup of what's been happening in our own exceptional nation this week alone, which kind of puts the world situation in some perspective.

      1. Our old friend Willy Gates has a new environmental initiative. In drought-stricken California---where every farm except those growing marijuana have burned to a crisp---Gates is funding a project to raze the remaining California forests and bury the wood. No---we peasants don't even get to turn it into lumber. 

      Frankly, I'm not especially interested in Gates' ridiculous reasons for doing this: whatever he says probably isn't the real reason anyway. The point here is: who authorized him do this? We're talking about a project that is going to cause significant environmental damage. Did anybody in California or anywhere else take a vote on this project? I haven't researched it; but one can't imagine that a project of this scope doesn't violate several USDA, National Forest Service, and EPA regulations. This is just further proof that Gates and other Oligarchs operate entirely above the law.

    2. Speaking of being above the Law, the People's Tribunal convened in Georgia for the purpose of purging the Republican Party, secured it's first conviction. Peter Navarro faces two years in a State Gulag for the crime of having been a presidential advisor. While it's true that the Constitution and other laws have Executive Privilege exemptions, and specify who can try officials for misconduct, we're living in an era where such Rights really don't mean much. With their bloodlust whetted, the Inquisitors employed by the Junta are seeking to expand their persecutions to include sitting elected officials. The failure of American Conservatives to stop the kangaroo court convened over the January 6th protests led to this. This is America's version of the Great Purge, though don't expect Big Media or Academia Incorporated to call it that. Don't expect it to stop with a few protesters or politicians either.

   3. In New Mexico, Governor-for-Life Michelle Lujan Grisham declared a 'Public Health Emergency' over 'gun violence' and used it to suspend gun rights more or less statewide. Well, why not? Grisham gained authoritarian control by using an influenza outbreak to suspend the 1st Amendment; why not use a crime spree as an excuse to suspend the 2nd? 

   As we've pointed out here before, these 'emergency declarations' were made possible by George Bush and a GOP-controlled Congress during our earlier panic-attack over terrorism. That's probably the reason why the GOP has done absolutely nothing to curb these kinds of abuses of power; and in fact have freely participated in them on several occasions.

   4. California's State Assembly, meanwhile, has authorized by a 57-16 vote the State's secret police agency Child Protective Services to break down the doors and seize children and teenagers whose parents or guardians don't obediently toe the Homo Agenda. Of course, agencies like these have been abusing children and young adults for decades now; but nobody cares as long as it only happens to someone else's family.

   5. Not to be outdone, it appears that one of the New America's Party Youth Organizations, the Girl Scouts, have begun issuing Merit Badges in the name of Rainbow Pride. Among the activities the little ones do to earn this award are making a sketch of an admired homo; attending a so-called 'pride event;' and making a music playlist of homo artists. Their counterpart, the Young Pioneers, Boy Scouts were sold out years ago by stalwart Conservatives like Robert Gates and 'Rainbow Rex' Tillerson. 

    Since their conversion into youth movements, enrollment numbers have been declining; however this means nothing to the ideologues behind them. They'll take a smaller number of correctly indoctrinated youth to be groomed for future activism and leadership positions (alongside being groomed for other things) against nonconformists whom they intend to marginalize anyway.

    While we might be inclined to shake our heads at how our culture is decline; we ought to realize that the reverse perspective is also true: these stories represent one week's progress in implementing the Great Reset. We've had many weeks just like it and a lot more coming.

    Despite the Fascists' land-grabs, gun-grabs, political purges, and preying upon the nation's youth, Conservatives---and Americans in general---continue along in blissful ignorance; apparently still not convinced that the people behind the Great Reset weren't joking about what they intend to do: and even worse, about the fact that they've already accomplished many of their goals and are well on the way to completing them. In spite of there having been no electoral reform of any kind and opposition leaders being thrown in jail and organized movements against dissent rapidly taking place; we still have pundits assuring us that polls, elections, and political stunts to own the Libtards actually matter. Even more ridiculous are the keyboard-warriors on the Alt-Right who fantasize about another Civil War: even though the Opposition has a stranglehold on the Military-Industrial Complex and the proponents of this 'Great Uprising' have no organization, plan, or even numbers to back them up. 

    If anyone wants a specimen of where the majority of Americans' minds are, contrast today's top-trending news stories against the ones listed above:

    1. "Patriots owner announces he'll break HOF rule for Tom Brady." 

    2. "Michigan State head coach fired after allegations of sexual misconduct."

    3. "Chris Evans marries Alba Baptista in Cape Cod wedding with his Superhero co-stars as guests."

   4. "Danny Masterson victim shares clip of Ashton Kucher talking about kissing 14- year old Mila Kunis."

   5. "Questions about Melania Trump's whereabouts hit an all-time high ahead of Donald's Iowa appearance." 

  6. "The two marijuana stocks that could jump by 66% and 79% according to Wall Street experts."

  7. "Big Brother spoilers: Season 25's Week 6 veto winner has a huge decision to make after surprise nominations."

  Yes: that really sounds like a populace ready to brace itself firmly against tyranny. Who can doubt that such a well-educated and well-informed public isn't prepared to elect honest leaders committed to the bedrock principles of republican government? We can see from this list that it's 1776 all over again; no doubt these worthies are holding reasoned debates about restoring Constitutional Government and engaging in philosophical discussions about the Rights of Man and how best to achieve them. 

   The course of action that we should be taking is to get out of this fog of denial and start realizing that we are the Counter-culture and not the 'silent majority.' Network with like-minded people. Establish parallel economies and societies wherever possible. Disengage, disunite, disjoin from the Great Reset as much as one can. Engage in passive resistance. If they force you, obey, but never volunteer. The Great Reset, like most such schemes, ultimately will fail but we need to disillusion ourselves of the idea that it will be defeated without effort and without sacrifice. 

JUST A BOMBING, NOTHING TO SEE HERE FOLKS

       So, last Friday, a massive fire broke out in a bum jungle homeless encampment in Seattle, Washington. Now, while to our foreign readers this may seem like shocking news, such events are fairly common in our exceptional paradise that you're supposed to look up to as the world's role model. The fire took place in what's ridiculously termed here as a 'green space' on East Jefferson Street. This is in a part of Seattle that was once an upscale neighborhood called Yesler Terrace and was a few hundred feet from both Interstate Highway 5 and the largest medical facility in the Northwest, Harborview Hospital. 

    Investigators learned over the weekend, the fire was actually the result of a bombing. Apparently, a tent where Fentanyl was being distributed was targeted by a rival drug gang. Unfortunately one of the dealers spotted the device before the explosion, and the pushers escaped, although gunfire reportedly was exchanged. Oh well: at least it was close to a hospital in case there were casualties, though I'd hate to be a patient there with gangs bombing and shooting each other outside the window. Sadly, too, a number of valuable trees were destroyed.

    The mayor of Seattle belatedly decided that it was time to clean out the area and prohibit camping there. Better late than never, we suppose. 

     Here in the exceptional United States, there are an estimated 12,000 'homeless' in Seattle alone; with jungles just like these all down the I-5 Corridor from Bellingham to the California Bay Area. The US Government estimates around 600,000 such cases nationwide; the West Coast alone has about 40% of them. Let's note the numbers in the Pacific Northwest:

Washington: 23,000

Oregon: 15,000

Idaho: 3,000

Alaska: 2,000

    Somehow, it seems as though---given the billions spent on the Military-Industrial Complex to defend black budget sites like Ukraine and Taiwan---that dealing with about 45,000 displaced persons shouldn't be that difficult. Consider that a country as financially strapped as North Korea managed to do it recently in under four months. As an interesting side-note, North Korea doesn't seem to have much of a problem with fentanyl-trafficking gangs blowing up infrastructure in their major cities either. Why can't we deal with it?

     In contrast here in the land of the Ameroboob, we're more focused upon indicting or impeaching each other's leaders than wiping out crime or eliminating poverty. It's a higher cultural value over here to one up the other guy and not be overly concerned with society's losers, even when such terrorism on our city streets is very clearly being orchestrated. The crime and poverty rampant in our Western cities is not accidental at all; it's there by design and grows worse also by deliberate intention---though the policy is greatly facilitated by public apathy and selfish interest. Part of the agenda of the Great Reset is building back better with high-tech concentration camps 'smart cities' and nothing will make people want them more than making our current cities hopelessly unlivable. The human lives washed out by dope and gang violence in the meantime are only collateral damage---pawns to be sacrificed for the greater glory of the Global Financial and Commercial Elite.

    As for the City of Seattle, it isn't going to fix anything and it's not intended that it should. Situations like we saw on Jefferson Street are going to continue and worsen until the American pull their heads out of their dope and media-induced stupors and start standing up to these Great Reset clowns. But nobody's holding their breath waiting for that to happen.

    

WHITHER MEMORIAL DAY?

    Today is Memorial Day, which once upon a time was a day to honor US Military veterans and was also a time when Americans launched a sort of unofficial start to the Summer holidays. As the Corporate Media and politicians have been reminding us, only three years ago, the only 'cookouts' going on were waves of rioters burning down retail stores and homes (many of whom have never been compensated); and the only 'honoring' we saw were the soon-to-be-defunded police kneeling in shame in front of the rioters. Even the 'deadly' Coronavirus stopped spreading temporarily to lend its voice to popular wrath. 

    As for our brave xhes in uniform, President Trump could barely scrape together enough such 'heroes' to defend the District of Columbia. Shortly before the crisis, he'd ordered US troops out of Syria---who also defied him and are still there; illegally 'guarding' Syria's oilfields and forcing locals to work them at gunpoint. Where this oil is going, nobody knows. A few months later, the Pentagon went into full mutiny with the Chief of Staff phoning world leaders and telling them not to panic in case he had to overthrow the Commander-in-Chief by force. This was all followed by sham trials where the policemen involved in the incident touching off the riot were convicted in show-trials and are still rotting in prison. The nominal Head-of-State reminded us on Thursday that we should not forget such things. I agree that we shouldn't: albeit for different reasons. 

   The average Ameroboob probably has memory-holed most of it by now, despite it happening less than 36 months ago. But for those inclined to have cookouts, there are plenty of recipes online for Cannabis-infused barbecue sauce and Memorial Day blowout sales for the holidays. As interesting side-note, the unofficial American holiday of April 20th now is the top-selling retail day, surpassing Christmas, Easter, and Valentine's Day. Coincidentally or otherwise, April 20th is also Adolf Hitler's birthday, and Der Fuhrer was a known drug-addict, sexual deviant, vegan, and deeply into New-Age mysticism and enforcing Cancel Culture. Nothing better symbolizes the state of Postmodern America than that. 

   As for actual Memorial Day itself, I confess to having mixed feelings. When we speak of honoring our military veterans, from roughly the time of the War of Independence to the end of the Cold War I can agree that they should be appreciated. Many forefathers served in the wars of those bygone days. When we're talking forward from the 1st Bush Administration, respect for the US Military becomes a little more problematic. 

   When the Soviet Union collapsed, then-Defense Secretary Dick Cheney systematically began eliminating military offices and farming them out to no-bid private contractors---a policy that he later greatly accelerated as Vice-President. The Clinton Co-Presidency began a systematic purge of officers to fight "the culture of toxic masculinity"---a policy that was amplified radically under Obama. Trump's 'swamp draining' unfortunately left most of the Pentagon untouched: in fact, under James Mattis, the Pentagon Swamp became more deeply entrenched. Since the Junta assumed power, the general direction of the Military seems to be more ideologically concentrated and bent even further towards a merger between National Defense and as both a global and domestic policing agency.

   The First Bush Administration also set the new direction of the Military---focusing less and less upon actually defending the United States and more and more about the interests of the Deep State and globalist financial and economic cartels. Bush began this transformation even before his infamous New World Order speech on September 11th, 1990. In 1989, Bush executed the invasion of Panama after a failed attempt by the CIA to overthrow the government there. Bush ignored a UN Resolution against the Panama Invasion, illegally deported President Manuel Noriega and tried him before a US kangaroo-court, and blatantly committed numerous war crimes which went unpunished and unreported by the servile Corporate Media.

    This action was basically the template for every other US Military action which has followed since. With the exception of the invasion of Afghanistan in 2002, it's doubtful that a single US military operation since that time had the slightest justification and all of them---including the 20-year Afghan Occupation have been rife with corruption, blatant disregard of International Law, and Crimes Against Humanity. 

    Lest we wish to imagine that the Pentagon has confined its crimes to foreign soil, consider their own admission to using Psyops on Americans, their admission to feeding propaganda into the Mainstream Media, and their use against American citizens during Hurricane Katrina and elsewhere. During the Scamdemic, Governors even deployed National Guardsmen to enforce the curfews and lockdowns. It doesn't seem as though the Postmodern Military is especially disposed to uphold their oaths about "defending the Constitution" very much. 

   Thus Memorial Day---like many other holidays---has become something of a meaningless anachronism. It celebrates an America that was, not what American service-xhes represent in the present zeitgeist. In a nation which has become as divided as ours, a Military packed mostly with public-school products chosen for their ability to follow orders and led by a thoroughly politically-corrected officer corps is not something that one can muster much respect for. The Pentagon essentially is nothing but another captured Federal bureaucracy and not really worthy of much more respect than the SEC, the FDA, the IRS, or any other agency of the Deep State.

  I think that we would better served on day like today that, instead of reflecting on the sacrifices of our forefathers, we instead reflected upon what our Military once was versus what it has become. The Military didn't become a crime-ridden collection of 'woke' goose-steppers overnight. Again, it is another problem of our own making. We've had decades of warnings that our Armed Forces were hotbeds of corruption, that Political Correctness and Wokeness were forcing down recruiting standards, and that wars were being fought with little or no justification. Yet, as usual, we turned a blind-eye to all of it then as we disregard it all now. 

   

     

BACK TO THE FUTURE

     Well, yesterday we all heard that Jeb Bush's hand-picked successor to the Florida Governorship announced a run for the White House. I had deja vu all day, remembering the RNC coronation-parties of 1992 and 2000. Those farces were designed to keep Reaganite populists out of the running; just like DeSantis is being propped up to marginalize Trumpian populism. To anybody who remembers the Bush Machine's policies and electoral tactics, I don't know why this actually needs explaining; but to the pot-soaked attention-spans of 21st Century Americans---to whom anything that happened before 2020 is about as ancient as what happened before Noah's Flood---apparently, it does. 

    The 2000 GOP Primaries fielded a wide range of Conservative candidates: Pat Buchanan, Jack Kemp, Dan Quayle, Alan Keyes, Steve Forbes, and John McCain. The Clinton Co-Presidency was term limited that year, and GOP voters were disgusted with the "Cave-In Congress" that our first modern 'Red Wave' brought us in 1994. It was widely believed that we needed an Executive committed to the Constitution who would at least motivate Congress to fight for the Reagan Legacy and policies, which Bush and Clinton had done their best to unravel.

   The Controlled Opposition Media and the Bush Machine went to work. Squawking that "we can't win on social issues" and that we had "to stop the Clinton Agenda at all costs," (despite slavishly going along with that Agenda for six years), they began beating the drums to draft then Texas Governor George Bush Jr. Astroturf campaigns came out---we know how the story ends. 2024 is being primed the same way. 

   By now, anybody should understand that US Elections on the national level are merely staged events to sow division and create the illusion of choice. Occasionally, the Oligarchy miscalculates like it did in 2016. But overall it's really a matter of indifference to the US Deep State which candidate wins because they own both Parties and look upon things like US Presidents in the same light that Corporate Boards look upon middle-managers. Ron DeSantis is cut from exactly that same mold. Besides being a product of the Bush Machine, DeSantis' background saw his rise to power come from Harvard Law School and the US Navy's Judge Advocate General's Department: both notorious Deep State recruiting grounds. In Congress, DeSantis was closely allied with Establishment obstructionist Paul Ryan---who is rumored to be among DeSantis' Presidential campaign managers.

   

      It ought to be telling that DeSantis announced his candidacy with the blessings of two globalist billionaires: Elon Musk and David O. Sacks. Musk, we've exposed here and on several other occasions. Musk's most recent move of course was appointing a WEF official to head Twitter. Sacks was one of the co-founders of PayPal---one of the WEF's Top 100 Strategic Partners. In 2017, Sacks founded 'angel investment' fund Craft Ventures. Some recipients of Craft Ventures' cash include Facebook (WEF); Uber (WEF); Palantir Technologies (WEF); AirBNB (WEF); and SpaceX. Like Musk, Sacks is part of the shady Silicon Valley circle hovering around billionaire Peter Thiel. DeSantis' largest (known) private donor is billionaire real-estate and aerospace mogul Bob Bigelow, who is an even bigger crackpot than Musk or Sacks. 

    It's no argument to claim that much of what DeSantis has said and done is (at least superficially) at variance with the Deep State/Globalist goals. Most of what he has said and done hasn't accomplished much of anything except to own the Libtards in the public spotlight while maintaining the Status Quo. Before he shifted on the Scamdemic, DeSantis was a brutal lockdown tyrant who abused his 'Emergency Powers' to include things like padlocking churches and arresting ministers. DeSantis even threatened to send the State military to seal the border with Georgia after Governor Kemp lifted the restrictions. Since DeSantis' 180 on COVID, not one of his 'reforms' has dismantled the Emergency Powers provisions. In fact, DeSantis declared another 'State of Emergency' over immigration. He's since threatened to close churches and arrest ministers who help immigrants, and has deployed the military to guard Florida's borders. 

   His feuds with Disney and the Florida Education Establishment have been just as hypocritical. All of DeSantis' speeches and policies seem to have that same kind of double-edge to them; he seems perfectly content with the present system but merely wants a different management and focus. This is at complete variance with a real Conservative approach as we saw with Reagan and Trump. Their focus was on 'draining the swamp', making Government accountable to the people. Reagan enforced antitrust laws and Trump fined, sanctioned, and jailed Corporate criminals. 

  DeSantis' character also evinces a troubling streak of fanaticism, with an accompanying ruthlessness. During his pro-lockdown days, he was positively thuggish in his enforcement measures against dissenters; since he switched sides, he's shown no mercy to the very people who followed his own orders but remained 'true believers.' He's also promoted using agencies like Child Protective Services against parents who believe in the whole 'pride business.' While I do believe that many lockdown proponents should be put on trial for their actions during the Scamdemic; and that children and even legal minors should be protected from homo propaganda, using government stormtroopers and secret tribunals to enforce such policies is off the table, as far as I'm concerned.

   

     As one of DeSantis' opponents summed it up: "Everything he's done as Governor boils down to him being an attention whore. He jumps into every single major culture war topic of the day, like a YouTuber or streamer chasing trends, so he can stay relevant to the news cycle and remind people he still exists. He wants to flex his power as governor, he wants to be the next strongman, and he wants to model his "imperial governorship" for a future imperial presidency."

    We do not need a Right-Wing version of Justin Trudeau or Emmanuel Macron in the United States. What a man like this would do with atomic weapons and the whole US Police/Surveillance State apparatus at his disposal ought to make people pause and think. We're not arguing, of course, that the Biden/Harris Junta doesn't need to be stopped; but think back to 2000. Yes, the Clintons were hostile to Liberty, committed many crimes under the Color of Office, and enacted many unconstitutional and illegal programs. But it's doubtful that anyone will argue that the successor Bush Administration didn't do more damage than the entire decade of the 1990s combined. Sadly, though, it seems that Conservatives learn nothing from history.
