QATARI JETS AND OTHER DISTRACTIONS

       The Mass-Distraction of the Week in our nominally free press has been a raging controversy over President Trump receiving a gift of a luxury airliner from the thugs running the Qatari Government. The President and his entourage of WEF linchpins are in that country today, of which the royal-owned Qatar Investment Authority is a WEF Strategic Partner. That, and the $1.2 trillion investment deal signed by the Oligarchs, however, is not the big story as far as the Left is concerned: the new airliner is.

      Anyone who has the patience to read Democrat-leaning sites will get bored rather quickly. Basically, all of them are recycled rhetoric from Kamala Harris' Campaign: identity politics, January 6th, Trump is working with Russia, etc.,etc. Not a peep out of them about the wholesale sell-off of the Federal Government to WEF/Wall Street plutocrats (they don't want to offend the same billionaires who also donate to them). Nor is there any criticism of the blatant shredding of the Constitution under the pretext of a 'National Emergency.' The Democrats hope to regain power in 2028 and want to use these themselves; much as Obama merely extended Bush Jr.'s powers after 2008 or Biden latched onto the Scamdemic after 2020. 

    Some, especially in light of today's trade deals, may consider the Qatari gift a bribe: which is really laughable considering the outright electoral bribery conducted by the Plutocracy on behalf of both nominal 'political parties.


     Among the Corporate luminaries on this Whirlwind Tour of the Middle East, we find the CEO of BlackRock who famously boasted that he didn't care who won the Election since he had operatives in both parties. LinkedIn CEO Reid Hoffman, Kamala Harris' top Corporate donor, is also on the trip. So are 'former' Democrat donors like Elon Musk and Sam Altman. All of them are there representing the Great Reset Agenda of the World Economic Forum. 

      Maybe we should all be a little more concerned about things like Corporate Hostile Takeovers of the US Government than we are about politicians giving expensive presents to one another. Or, if we're concerned about gifts, we can talk about Foreign Lobbying of both parties in our Congress (Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates rank 5th, 7th, and 8th respectively on the list of Foreign Lobbying Registrants. Israel, of course, tops all of them, but they are exempt from reporting under FARA). Since the Foreign Agents Registration Act became law in 2000, nearly 100 ex-Congressmen have gone through the Revolving Door and worked as foreign lobbyists. Saudi Arabia has an uniquely bipartisan group of lobbyists in its own corner which has done effective work for them in the past

     But focusing on things like the Qatari jetliner provides a useful distraction from such things. This way, we can all pretend that we don't really have a Uniparty working in the interests of an authoritarian Plutocracy; that the American Dream is real; and that we really are superior and exceptional after all.
