THE GREAT RESET STARTS AT HOME

       So, this weekend the Republican Establishment finished filling the top posts in the incoming Executive Branch. To summarize what the finished product looks like: I think that if Jeb Bush, Klaus Schwab, George Soros, Bill Gates, and Joel Osteen sat around a table and devised a Government, it would look about like what we have. There were one or two good choices: Robert Kennedy at HHS and Lori C. DeRemer at the Labor Department---the RINOs, of course, will never let these nominations see the light of day. Still some people are desperate to keep believing:

     That of course is very wishful thinking. I've always admired Nicole Shanahan's idealism, but we live in an era when ideals are considered old-fashioned and action for the sake of action is admired. This Transition Team isn't even bothering with background checks let alone worrying about what Interest Groups are horning their way into positions of power. As we saw during the whole Electoral Farce, most True Believers didn't much care about who took over either, as long as they weren't Democrats (although several 'former Democrats' seem to have gotten a free pass). Among the New Right of today, winning and taking power is a goal in itself: commitment to Conservatism, not so much.

     To underscore the incoming Executive Branch's deep commitment to the Bush Doctrine of enforcing (very selectively) freedom at the point of a gun, the swine in the Corporate Media have been stoking the public for the next upcoming State of Emergency. Because Americans seem to thrive on the excitement of these National Emergencies and there is no shortage of fanatics willing to carry them out, President Trump---or whoever writes his speeches for him---has already vowed to open a new one even before being sworn in. 

    To this end, (certain) immigrants are being designated as the official scapegoat for all of the failings of our culture. We've already mentioned here before how radically the Police/Surveillance State would have to be expanded to enact this kind of drama; and of course, the 'immigrant invasion' is a complete hoax---just like the Scamdemic (which had a 99+% survival rate); or all of the Terrorist Sleeper Cells (that we've never found); or numerous other national panic-attacks which have resulted in temporary losses of freedoms. 

   These outbreaks of mass-hysteria---while they usually have negative consequences for the public engaging in them---typically enrich Government contractors and other such creatures. Bush Jr. even boasted that National Security was the fastest-growing economic sector during his term; and the Scamdemic was by far the largest wealth-transfer in US history. This is all that the next State of Emergency will accomplish as well.
