HOLIDAY HYPOCRISY FROM THE UNIPARTY

         So, today (December 24th), we in America are on the eve of yet another holiday which has lost all of its meaning. Christmas in the Postmodern United States has really become one great exercise in evading Reality. Over the previous several years, the Whacko Left Wing of the Uniparty has sought to denigrate any spiritual overtones surrounding the event, while Virtue-Signaling and serving the interests of Wall Street became the New Normal defining the Christmas Spirit. Now that the Reactionary Wing is in power, Christmas is about denying things like, say, the ongoing Genocide in Palestine, the build-up to war to annex Latin America and the Arctic in the interests of the Techno-Fascist Deep State; the deployment of secret police forces and building of Concentration Camps, Smart Cities, etc. To help encourage distractions even further, we've had another release of muh Epstein Files so that partisans of both wings of the Uniparty can clutch their pearls in self-righteous outrage and point fingers at each other. 


          Another story that has somewhat faded but generated some further fake outrage for a time was the story of CBS spiking a documentary on the CECOT Gulag in El Salvador. The Corporate Media---which is still trying desperately to pretend that it has even the slightest shred of journalistic integrity or independence---is getting some sympathy from the Democrats who are howling about the Administration's growing stranglehold over content. They're hoping that nobody will notice that they've been doing the same thing for several years. The Democrats would also probably hope that, by focusing on Epstein, nobody will remember that the US started these inhuman ICE deportations under Biden, with full support from Democrats in Congress; and the Republicans would just as soon nobody ask questions either; since that would undermine their narrative about the Democrats supposedly favoring Open Borders.

       Atrocities in the Police State of El Salvador---whose dictator has visited the White House and been a regular speaker at American Conservative conferences---were not the only story from the region swept under the rug by the Corporate Media. In neighboring Honduras, a de facto US-backed Color Revolution occurred, installing an ally of the White House and (more importantly) the Techno-Fascist Oligarchy. Just as El Salvador is a model for the type of Police State that the Elites wish to impose in the US, Honduras has been a battleground over development of a proposed Smart City, which the Elites also hope to establish in America. Earlier this month, the White House quietly pardoned former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, a backer and partner of Peter Thiel's Prospera Project, which his successor as Honduran President has opposed strongly. The now-deposed Honduran Government deported Hernandez to the US, where he was convicted of smuggling 400 tons of Cocaine into the country. 

     "A Wall Street Journal story reveals that Trump goon Roger Stone explicitly argued pardoning Hernández could 'crush socialism and save a freedom city in Honduras,' calling Prospera a project with 'major implications for U.S. policy and the future of freedom throughout the world.'" Stone is a long-time Deep State operative, a protegee of one of the sleaziest political operators in American History, Roy Cohn. It's not surprising that he would ally with the likes of Thiel, since Thiel and Cohn are very similar characters.

      We're certain, though, that the True Believers and the Denialists will have no end of excuses and rationalizations for all of these crimes; likewise the Controlled Opposition (who are the Democrats) will pretend not to notice and focus on salacious stories and rumors from Epstein Island. Such is the Postmodern State of the Christmas Season---as divorced from the Reality of Christmas as contemporary Christianity is from the actual Gospel.

THE SHUTDOWN AND MARTIAL LAW

      On Wednesday, after some token opposition, the Uniparty agreed to stage yet another 'national emergency;' this time, a shutdown over Congress' inability to pass a Federal Budget. Of course, the objective behind this was to pave the way for further Rule by Decree, Party Purges, and extending de facto Martial Law. 

    Supporters of the Democrat Wing of the Uniparty fantasize that they'll vote their way back into power because muh Epstein Files, and other such nonsense. Of course, their own leaders are salivating at the opportunity to grab all of these 'Emergency Powers' for themselves and be the ones inaugurating the Great Reset. Supporters of the Republican Wing---if not swooning in delight because the Libtards are getting owned---are reacting as they always do during a crisis: looking the other way, going-along-to-get along, grabbing opportunities to profit or shafting their neighbors, etc.

    The day before the 'shutdown,' the figurehead President and the Christian Nationalist Pentagon Chief addressed an assembly of top military leaders for the impending takeover of American cities. Neo-Nazi 'Border Czar' Tom Homan has already begun expanding the number of planned Concentration Camps and has dispatched ICE brownshirts to terrorize neighborhoods with midnight raids, as well as beating journalists and elected officeholders who might try to hold them accountable along the way. As the President explained to the assembled officers, “We’re going to straighten them out one by one and this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That’s a war too. It’s a war from within. Last month, we signed an Executive Order to provide training for a quick reaction force that can help quell civil disturbances. This is going to be a big thing for the people in this room because it’s the enemy from within, and we have to handle it before it gets out of control.”

      Trump singled out Antifa in the previous Executive Order, ignoring the fact that several of his own Cabinet members had no problem with supporting Antifa before. That is apparently no problem for so-called Christian Conservatives either, since most churches and writers on Christian issues dutifully have fallen into line with the Official Narrative. Antifa, and groups like them, reflect one end of the Strategy of Tension, while the ICE brownshirts and the Pentagon's newly-organized State Security Forces represent the other.  


       Since ICE's Reign of Terror began, at least 16 people have been killed, thousands have been abducted (including over 8,000 children) and whisked off to Concentration Camps, where hundreds---if not thousands---have disappeared. As the meeting of the Military officers made clear: immigrants aren't the only ones being targeted---in fact, they never were intended to be

      Will our Military leadership go along with this? Of course they will. Just like Academia and Big Media promptly folded when the cash spigot was threatened with a cutoff, the Military will too. With another Christian Nationalist in charge of the Office of Management and Budget, party purges---including that in the Military---will become just another New Normal. In fact, Trump more or less admitted the Uniparty's complicity in the whole scheme:


     

      At the meeting with the Military Leaders, Trump gave us exactly the reason why we'll see no opposition from that quarter and, by extension, why we'll see little to no resistance from the American people: “If you don’t like what I’m saying," he said to the officers, "you can leave the room. Of course, there goes your rank, there goes your future.” 

     This is exactly how arrogant CEOs talk to their middle managers, how Academic administrators talk to teachers and professors, how landlords talk to their tenants, how Government leaders talk to bureaucrats, and even how many parents talk to their children these days. The managerial class, the bureaucratic class, and the academic class, in turn, talk to their employees, subordinates, and students in the same fashion. Americans, because of their near-idolatry of Power, have learned to submit to these insults: and of course, there's the imagery of heavily-armed stormtroopers in the background in case anybody gets the manhood to assert his rights. 

     The Scamdemic proved to the Ruling Class once and for all that Americans would accept any level of tyranny imposed upon them and at least go along with any Official Narrative, no matter how absurd. 

     Do we have high crime and occasional riots in American cities? Of course we have; but the solution to that problem is for the residents there to come out of their dope-induced stupors and empty-headed Virtue Signalling long enough to demand that the police, judges, and politicians start doing their jobs. The solution is not having Pete Hegseth dispatching his Army of God onto the streets with Shoot-to-Kill Orders and sending Palantir in behind to engage in its ideal of Urban Renewal

      The United States has a built-in system making resilience possible, and, although it's barely functioning now, a system of Checks-and-Balances. Despite this, we rapidly are reaching a Point of No Return. As one of the Administration's kindred spirits once proclaimed from the White House: "You're either with us or you're against us." Bush 3.0---which we currently have today under the superficial veneer of Christian populism---is merely an extension of Bush 2.0's philosophy, which in it's turn was an extension of Bush 1.0's proclamation of a New World Order. The program is nearing completion, if we can stop it, we need to start speaking out now while we still can.

CONSERVATIVES SILENT AS THE POLICE STATE EXPANDS

      Here in Upside-Down Clown World, the Neo-Nazis and Christian Nationalists running the State Security Police Department of Homeland Security were trumpeting one of the largest workplace raids to date, at a Hyundai Plant outside Savannah, Georgia. As we can see from the Official Press Release, the prisoners seized obviously look like serious National Security threats.


      The original warrant only listed four “target persons” to be searched, none of whom appear to be Korean; but it appears that many of the Alpha ICE Bullies began noticing that a lot people in a South Korean-owned factory appeared to be Asian and started the mass-roundup. 300 South Korean Nationals were abducted and whisked off to the Concentration Camp in nearby Folkston, Georgia. This area has an infamous history for such institutions, which we're certain went into ICE's location planning. 

      The South Korean Government issued a perfunctory protest; but as Seoul is very much an adjunct of the US Deep State, so it's doubtful that they'll do much else. Hyundai and LG Energy who co-owned the plant are two major corporations which actually are not WEF-connected, which we're certain had nothing to do with making an example of the plant; nor does the fact that Georgia Governor Brian Kemp---an enemy of the New Right---was largely responsible for bringing Hyundai into the State. 

     Emboldened by this move, the White House's Social Media apparatus gave us all a hint of what we can expect next. 

     

      Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker also has issued some rather tepid protests: like his South Korean counterpart, Pritzker probably realizes that he hasn't much of a moral high-ground to stand upon when it comes to comes to pushing back against the Police State. That aside, however, it seems quite interesting how we're seeing this not-so-gradual elision from targeting 'immigrant invaders' to the broader category of enemies within. 


        Much like Bush 1.0's War on Drugs only targeted drug dealers, and Bush 2.0's War on Terror only targeted foreign terrorists, and the Scamdemic power-grabs were only about a public health emergency, we should be assured that Bush 3.0's 'Emergency Decrees' will only target a few foreign criminals. If 'you've nothing to hide, you've nothing to worry about,' right? Incidentally none of the Emergency Powers grabbed during the previous three 'emergencies' have been repealed; even though Marijuana is now legal in most States; the US occupation has mostly left the Middle East; and the Mask of Shame and Vaxx Passports have been shelved. 

      The Paramilitary takeovers of US cities, the mass-deportations, the purging of the Federal Government, the implementation of Digital Currency schemes and Social Credit operations; and the bankrupting of American farms and small businesses in mostly rural areas together form vectors within an interconnected pattern. Prior to the White House meeting with Big Tech Oligarchs last week, recall that there was a previous event held in the Middle East where these same Oligarchs signed Trade Pacts with the Gulf State Royal Families to develop Smart City technologies already underway in these Arab (and Israeli) Police States. 

      WEF Young Global Leaders like Peter Thiel are fully in with that organization's goals of establishing Smart Cities within the next decade. Big Tech originally proposed building new cities, but as the ongoing experiment in the District of Columbia shows, it is simpler and more cost-effective to take over existing cities, ethnically-cleanse them, and upgrade them much like the Zionist Regime plans for Gaza. 

      Sadly, American Christian Conservatives---who were vocal about such usurpations when the Democrats were in charge---are conspicuous for their lack of opposition now that their people are the ones running the Police State. American Churches should be the most vocal in denouncing the New Right and what it intends: but instead, they seem content to look the other way.

IT'S DISTRACTION SEASON AGAIN

      Here in the Prozac Nation, the Corporate Media was compelled this weekend to take a hiatus from the usual hero-worship and drama due to (yet another) catastrophic natural disaster. This time, a massive flood swept through Central Texas with literally hundreds of people dead or missing. Both wings of the Uniparty, which have continued together ignoring the scandalous condition of American Flood Control systems for many years now, reacted to the disaster with finger-pointing; and, as usual, offered no solutions to address the issue. In Postmodern America, building things like more prisons, internment camps, domestic espionage networks, and border walls are considered priority infrastructure spending: actual Public Safety, not so much. 

     With the flooding and too many questions (finally) starting to be asked in the wake of passing the Neocons' Budget-Bill, an urgent distraction from Reality became necessary. Military showboating against Iran and Elon Musk's further antics simply weren't enough. So the US Department of Justice obliged with the single most reliable tactic to divert public attention: a juicy sex scandal.


      Sunday Night's announcement that the Justice Department has found nothing on the long-moribund Jeffrey Epstein Scandal has sent the American Social Media scene into a spiraling meltdown. To recap the story a bit for context here: Jeffrey Epstein was a Wall Street/WEF hedge-fund billionaire who sidelined as a Globalist Deep State Operative. He owned a private island in the Carribbean where he ran Black Budget operations of every description, mostly on behalf of the CIA, MI-6, and the Mossad, although personal vendettas among the rich and powerful were no doubt had for a price too. Epstein Island was an international hotbed of pay-to-play Political and Corporate organized crime activities that certain interests preferred not be done under the scrutiny of government authorities or curious journalists. There are other places like this in the world, Epstein's happened to be most notorious though. 

     As a front for all of these crimes, Epstein ran an operation--- something like a billionaires' playground, and kept a number of young women around for that purpose. In a deeply sex-negative culture like the United States, Epstein's actual crimes could get a free pass, but the thought that men might be engaging in heterosexual activities is intolerable to contemporary Americans. Epstein's mistake was keeping it all private instead of following Andrew Tate's strategy of opening it all to public gaze. Part and parcel of a sexually puritanical culture like ours is that two of our main national past-times are voyeurism and IRL sex: Tate understands this, but Epstein didn't. Hence, Tate gets to be a national hero while Epstein died under mysterious circumstances. The Deep State subsequently picked the woman who managed the Island's hostesses as a human sacrifice and the scandal went away as the Media found new lurid stories to latch onto. 

     



      Some on the New Right are screaming that the DOJ's announcement is tantamount to Treason; the Whacko Left is touting a Conspiracy Theory that Trump is covering up because he's implicated in something. To cut through the Noise Machine, let us just examine a few actual realities here:

       1. If there really was anything incriminating about Trump in Epstein's files, his enemies wouldn't have wasted time and money on stupid witch-hunts, impeachments, and Lawfare over ridiculously trivial issues and allegations with nothing but rumors to support them.

      2. Even if there were anything scandalous about Trump, we should all know by now that most of his supporters are borderline paranoid fanatics who wouldn't care anyway.

      3. It's somewhat absurd to imagine that the Deep State would be transparent about anything involving a high-profile operative like Jeffrey Epstein. Let's be realistic: Pam Bondi (former lobbyist for Jeff Bezos and current operative of the Bush Machine); Kash Patel (former Obama Administration Official); and Dan Bongino (a wholly-owned toady of Rupert Murdoch) are part of the Deep State, as were their predecessors. 

     The self-righteous reaction of the American public to the DOJ announcement is more akin to the anger most of them feel when there's a power failure in the middle of one of their OnlyFans broadcasts. They were expecting high-octane titillation and got a blank screen. The scandal will blow over though (just like it did before) as soon as new one pops up to grab public attention. It is rather sad that Americans are less concerned about the dangers of a couple dozen Campfire Girls getting drown in a flood because of our failure to build infrastructure than they are about the possibly than one of those girls might be seen kissing a boy; but that's where Trash Culture has gotten us.

FALLOUT FROM THE FOURTH

      So, although our Woke Republicans moved official Independence Day to Juneteenth, the 4th of July is still an observed holiday (for now). In our Government By Social Media, there was a lot of activity leading up to the Main Event, an Ultimate Fighting Championship smackdown in the White House

      First, just three days after the State Department issued a Travel Warning against Americans visiting Haiti, the White House announced an Executive Order ethnically cleansing the Haitian population from the United States. Flanked by Interior Secretary and Bill Gates henchman Doug Burgum, Christian Nationalist Russ Vought, and America's official Tradmom Kristi Noem, the White House ordered that by September 2, 2025, over half a million Haitians, some who have been in the US for over 15 years, to find another legal pathway to remain in the US or face detention and deportation. The issue has been challenged in Court, but, as we've seen, this Administration has learned well from the previous one and found that intimidating the Judiciary works. 


     The inclusion of Burgum was interesting. His old boss Bill Gates is widely suspected of instigating the 2021 coup in Haiti which is responsible for the current state of unrest there. The State Department, both under former chief Antony Blinken and the current one Marco Rubio have proposed Kenyan mercenaries be deployed there as 'peacekeepers.' Kenya is another country where Bill Gates has his fingers in the political pie in a major way; but nobody seems concerned with Gates' influence in this Administration. Likewise, nobody is overly concerned that the anti-Haitian hysteria was fanned by literal Neo-Nazis; everything seems to be justified as long as we own those Libtards. 

    On the subject of Neo-Nazis, the figurehead President with the aforementioned figurehead Kristi Noem in tow jetted off to Florida shortly thereafter to tour the Grand Opening of a Concentration Camp quite appropriately placed in the Florida SwampAt a press conference following the tour, Trump threatened to use the camp not only for undocumented immigrants but also for American citizens. 'Many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too. You want to know the truth. So maybe that will be the next job,”  adding that the prison may be "a little controversial, but I couldn’t care less.” As in the first case, the White Supremacists were overjoyed and even found a way to capitalize on it, much as they did with DOGE merch earlier and are currently doing celebrating the humanitarian disaster brought on by their feverish nightmares and latent homosexual fantasies about racial purity.


      Of course, when the Democrats were threatening camps for the Unvaxxed and calling us the enemy within, and accusing us of contaminating the nation and demanding things like Truth and Reconciliation witch-hunts for their opponents, that was all bad. But when our side does it, it suddenly becomes noble and just.

    Finally, after one of those productive meetings with RNC operatives, the Congress predictably caved in and passed the Budget Act, expanding goals of the Police State which were fashioned under the Biden/Harris Junta, as well as expanding wealth-transfers to Globalist Oligarchs and some cuts to Social Services designed to implement the long-standing goal of creating a Permanent Underclass. 

     These things are the natural consequence of a political strategy that panders to the Lowest Common Denominator while serving an Elite group of Special Interests behind the scenes. The Republicans simply copied the tactics that the Democrats have been employing for years---and, frankly speaking, are working towards the same goals under different labels. The so-called 'New Right' is really only the Reactionary Left, as we've noted here repeatedly. 

     That fact should be obvious given the sheer number of Globalists, Rainbow-Pride activists, and 'former' Democrats that the Administration is overloaded with; as well as the continual promotion of Big Government, top-down solutions, and intimidation of political opponents. Unfortunately, most 'Conservatives' choose to look the other way and pretend that there's really no Uniparty; that the contemporary GOP doesn't really pander to the basest and lowest elements in Human Nature; and that all of these Corporate Oligarchs who were Woke yesterday have had an epiphany and now are working solely and righteously towards to laudable goal of making America Great Again. It should be obvious, but it doesn't seem as though any amount of evidence actually makes a difference to some people. 


       What the Scamdemic was for the Left, this new round of 'national emergencies' is for the so-called 'Right' just as the Scamdemic became the national LARP succeeding the War on Terror and so forth; today we have Big and Beautiful Budgets in place of Building Back Better; MAGA as the follow-up to Hope and Change; etc. It is part and parcel of the Strategy of Tension, and the same social engineers who run that psyop know well the benefit (to them) of the human mind to repeat traumatic experiences. This ongoing program of creating crises, fomenting panics, and then offering solutions is promoted purposely by both the Corporate Media and the Academic Mafia using proven psychological principles which they've weaponized. The object of all of this is the mass-production of apathy and denial, of course ultimately leading to the acceptance of an authoritarian government. 

     Awareness of the Oligarchy's intentions and methods are the best means of resisting their designs. This is one reason why they are ramming through high-tech schemes like Artificial Intelligence and speeding up implementation of things like Digital ID, contact-tracing, and advanced surveillance. It also, incidentally, is why the Democrats are focusing on Social Service reductions and ignoring Civil Liberties reductions in their pretended opposition: they imagine that they will return to power and want a stronger Government that they can use themselves. Most recently we saw that with Obama's expansion of Bush's policies. Like it or not, we have a Uniparty and it works, not for, but against our interests. All the denial, rationalization, and excuses won't change that fact.

MUSK HAS FINALLY LOST IT

       Since the online controversy over Elon Musk's position on H1B visas exploded late last week, it would appear that Musk's already-fragile mental state---which has been teetering precariously on the edge of outright insanity for a long time---has finally tipped. Apparently without sleep and probably bolstered with Amphetamines, the Tech Lord Supreme has been banning anybody from X who questions his will and posting hysterical outbursts about "going to war with MAGA" and other such nonsense. Yesterday, Musk got caught using a voice-changer to fake an interview with himself and today unveiled a new online persona:


     There are times when one just doesn't know what to say. It isn't as though nobody knew; although that sentiment is floating around the Controlled Opposition comments sections a lot. Like this specimen, for example, which has gone viral:


      Like many others, 'DRG' no doubt was quite happy with other people being denied employment or getting censored---it just wasn't supposed to happen to him. The only advice that I give to someone like this is to remember that facts don't care about your feelings; and that his son should remember his personal brand and not protest too much because Big Tech has that covered too. But on the positive side, with the mass-deportations that Conservatism Incorporated and the Prison-Industrial Complex have planned from Day One, there will plenty of jobs for Junior washing dishes, picking strawberries, mixing concrete, etc. 

    

      Vivek Ramaswamy also explained workplace conditions under the New Order, which likewise has seen some pushback:


     Of course, if Chrisman had said this during the campaign, he'd have been labelled a 'Marxist' and envious of people who work hard. Again, he no doubt was quiet during the campaign, content in the belief that Mediaeval-level working conditions were going to be for other people. 

    Maybe it would have been a better idea to start asking questions before November. Instead, though, the so-called 'American Right' chose to ignore all of the blatant warning signs and grab the first gang who supported top-down solutions and magical cures for all of society's problems. If they don't like the way it's going now, they have no one to blame but themselves.

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.

REAGAN-APPOINTED JUDGE SWATS DOWN GREG ABBOTT

     It's a rare thing these days when a Conservative scores a victory for Liberty over the Reactionary Republicans. On Thursday, Federal Judge David Ezra---who was appointed to the Federal Bench by Ronald Reagan---blocked a Texas law scheduled to go into effect next week which drastically would have expanded Police State powers under the pretext of fighting illegal immigration. If the law had gone into effect, it would have authorized any and all law enforcement to arrest, and judges to order removed, anyone merely suspected of having entered Texas without presenting identification papers. 

     "I fear that the United States could become a confederation of states enforcing their own immigration laws. That is the same thing the Civil War said you can’t do," Ezra told the State's attorneys.

    


     A similar law attempted by so-called 'Conservatives' in Arizona was struck down in 2012. Similar laws to Texas' were being proposed by other Neocon thugs in Florida, North Carolina, and Louisiana. What ought to shame American Conservatives is that an Attorney for the Texas ACLU had more of a Conservative statement than they have:

     “The federal court’s decision confirms over a century of Supreme Court precedent, affirming that immigration enforcement is squarely within the federal government’s authority. S.B. 4 is a blatantly unconstitutional attempt to bypass federal law."

    Not only is it not a Conservative value to usurp the United States Constitution whenever it's convenient: it's also hardly a Conservative position to authorize police forces to stop and detain anyone at will and demand they present identification papers. Unfortunately, today, we don't have anything like an actual Conservative party anymore: since the first Bush Administration, Conservatives have felt totally at ease with expanding the Police/Surveillance State whenever one of their gauleiters declare "a national emergency." We saw it again and again: during the Drug War; post-9/11; the Scamdemic---today it's "an immigrant invasion" which is just about as fake a pretext as the others were. 

   The Neocons and their Alpha Alt-Right confederates believe (so they say) in smaller government, so naturally all of these tight new immigration laws they have planned will be farmed out to private prison and security industries, which give this party a lot of financial support. Some of the policies that they've been yakking about during the 2024 campaign would involve a massive expansion of the Police State; including mandatory identification papers, detention camps, criminalizing religious and charitable institutions, and likely facilitate the shift to digital currency "to combat workplaces hiring illegals," of course. 

    A real Conservative position would be to enact sensible immigration laws, with amnesty for those already here and contributing, a stronger presence at our borders, and shutting down swine like George Soros and his Neocon pals who are creating Border surges. But that wouldn't be Alpha enough for our new breed of realistic Republicans: as we saw in our last post, they are just as committed to destroying democracy as the Left is---provided that they get to destroy it and be the power-brokers themselves instead.

CHINESE OPIOID EXPOSE FRUSTRATES US DEEP STATE

    Recently, the Beltway Junta has been trying desperately to paper over reports of increasing Opioid fatalities in the United States. As part of their 'depopulation' agenda, of course, the Oligarchy desires this situation, but the situation has reached such proportions that it's become impossible to hide from the general public. So, both the Junta and the Controlled Opposition have agreed upon a narrative blaming China for the problem---much like they blame Russia for spreading 'disinformation' whenever their crimes are publicly exposed in the alternative media.

   With great fanfare and 'bipartisan' support, the nominal United States Government officially listed China as a Major Drug Source Country and imposed several pointless sanctions on Chinese companies making pharmaceutical supplies. This, in spite of the fact that China (unlike the US) bans Fentanyl even as a prescription drug. China's officials have been speaking out against this. In an interview with Wei Xiaojun---head of the Chinese equivalent of the DEA---some rare admissions were made as to the state of the Opioid Crisis in China. While it is fairly severe, it pales in comparison to the American problem---and, unlike the US, China has been making substantial progress in suppressing the illegal drug trade.

   The Global Times also went on to publish an investigative report on the Opioid situation here. Americans have been conditioned by our own Corporate Media to sneer reflexively at anything published by China (as if our Media isn't State-disseminated propaganda itself). The most compelling aspect of this article is that is an outsider's view of corrupt, corporatist Western Culture. If this is indeed  Propaganda that the Chinese Government employs to tell it's citizens what to think of the West, it's a very damning indictment that they don't really need to exaggerate or lie much to make their case that postmodern Western Civilization is a sham Democracy; and that most of us are really just slaves to the Corporate Leviathan that rules over us, and seeks to spread it's Empire of Domination over the entire world. It may be 'anti-American propaganda used to prop up a Communist regime'; but if so, it's certainly effective, because so much of it is based on the truth. In fact, it is noteworthy because it cites sources from our own Government-Media Complex.

   

      

     The report states that "the US is plagued with a drug abuse problem more acute than any other countries as 12 percent of global drug users come from the North American country, two times higher than the proportion of its population. Provisional data indicates that nearly 110,000 Americans died of drug overdoses in 2022, the highest of all time, and more than two-thirds of the deaths involved the powerful synthetic opioid fentanyl, as per US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention." 

    This number was going down under the Trump Administration's Opioid Task Force, incidentally; but Orange Man Bad, and we know the rest of the story. Today, dope-pushers are running free again, while our President-in-Exile may likely end up in jail---a perfect metaphor for Americans' social priorities.

    "US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, when visiting China in late August, claimed that US hopes to cooperate with China to tackle the rapidly increasing rates of fentanyl overdoses. However, the country simultaneously keeps scapegoating China on the issue, imposing sanctions and filing criminal charges against Chinese enterprises and individuals."

    It should also be noted that the Trump Administration made an agreement with China to work jointly on eradicating Opium supplies in Afghanistan, and Trump also agreed to end the so-called Freedom of Navigation exercises in the South China Sea so that China could focus more heavily upon suppressing smuggling in the region. The Pentagon ignored both of those orders. 

   China likewise launched military operations in Burma aimed at destroying the Opioid networks illegally operating there. US NGOs backed by George Soros and Bill Gates fought China desperately; framing the narrative as 'ethnic cleansing' against the Burmese Rohingya people---whose population was largely engaged in it. They've promoted a similar narrative against Chinese actions among the Uighurs in Western China who are doing the same things. Coloring anything as 'racist' in the American Media is like a magic incantation---it causes immediate cessation of reasoning. However, that formula never applies when our Media blames all Mexicans for drug trafficking on our Southern Border. 

   The report goes on to trace the sordid history of Big Pharma and US Deep State collusion beginning with the OxyContin scandals of the 1990s. "The pharmaceutical company Purdue Pharma colluded with US medicinal regulators and developed aggressive marketing tactics to promote its brand name product OxyContin, an extended-release form of Oxycodone, as less likely to cause addiction, raking in tens of millions of dollars. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), charged with the responsibility of prescription drug use regulation, gave OxyContin the green light in 1995 even though neither long-term studies nor assessments of its addictive capabilities had been thoroughly conducted."

   I well remember this scandal, and that several officials within the Clinton Co-Presidency were implicated, as noted in the report: 

  "Two principal FDA reviewers who originally approved Purdue's application took positions at the company after leaving the agency. In the following two decades, more FDA staffers involved in opioid approvals left the FDA to work for opioid makers, according to the American Medical Association Journal of Ethics. Purdue offered kickbacks, paid lecturers, and organized free seminar vacations to doctors to incentivize them to prescribe OxyContin, leading to a tenfold increase in prescriptions for less serious pain, from about 670,000 in 1997 to about 6.2 million in 2002."    

  Purdue is now an insolvent corporation; it was formerly headed by a billionaire 'woke capitalist.' (Sound familiar?) The case is still in litigation, mostly over corrupt CEOs and Federal bureaucrats trying to protect their assets. Of course, nobody in our Mainstream Media is going to talk about the revolving-door bureaucracy, 'woke capitalists' in Big Pharma---or about the obvious fact that, coupled with the stated 'population control' agenda of these interests---that our drug crisis is part and parcel of a deliberate, Corporate-Government organized system encouraging addiction and overdose deaths. So, who is the real party here engaging in Ethnic Cleansing and Genocide?

   The report also notes the collusion of the Insurance Cartels in promoting the epidemic: "Most insurance, especially for poor people, won't pay for anything but a pill," said Judith Feinberg, a professor at West Virginia University with expertise in infectious diseases associated with drug injection. The US Department of Health and Human Services estimated that about 11 million people in the US consume Oxycodone in a non-medical way annually." 

   In the American Healthcare System, cost-effectiveness has replaced what was once personal care. Medical personnel once felt a responsibility for their patients; today, the primary responsibility is to profit the 'stakeholders' in the Insurance Cartels. Patients are simply commodities. Needless to say, actual treatment for addictions is not an especially high priority to these people. That matter they leave up to their corporate cronies in the Prison-Industrial Complex

   "Addicts are not redeemed." the report notes, "The large, ever-expanding group of drug dependence, without proper social support and intervention, easily became the victims of new, more powerful drugs. Fentanyl, a synthetic opioid which is also FDA-approved, is up to 50 and 100 times stronger than heroine and morphine respectively. Fentanyl, the cheaper to make yet more lethal drug and its close cousins became the biggest drug-related killers in the US in 2016, the Associated Press reported."

     The Trump Administration did make an effort to focus on treatment for addicts, despite considerable obstruction and bristling, even from members of his own Party. Trump's policy cut too deeply into too many profit-margins and since has been scrapped. 

    The very notion of investing in treatment programs often brings a firestorm of fury from many on the Postmodern Right. "No way! Why should we be taxed to pay for someone else's poor lifestyle choices?!?" is one common refrain heard. Aside from the humanitarian aspect---which seems to matter very little to today's new breed of Conservatism anyway---it doesn't occur to anybody that we're already paying a lot for overpriced, for-profit prisons, the crimes committed to support drug habits, and declining quality-of-life in general. Sadly, it's doubtful that such arguments carry much weight. 'Justice' in America today is really more focused on retaliation, revenge, and scapegoating; and advocating rehabilitation is seen as being a soft-on-crime weenie. Contrary to American Media propaganda, incidentally, the Chinese Justice System prioritizes treatment for drug-offenders. 

    


    "With around 4 percent of the world's population, the US consumes 80 percent of the world's opioids. Why is the US? 

    "The US' drug problem, including the current fentanyl abuse crisis, is deeply rooted in the country's lobbying political structure and ideology, said Zhang Yifei, an associate research fellow at the Institute of American Studies under the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. The colossal profits bundle pharmaceutical companies with the FDA, sponsored politicians, academic groups, and the media, making the fentanyl crisis a predictable tragedy in the US that has enriched a few at the expense of many lives lost.

    "Academic institutions provide 'scientific proof,' media and think tanks propagate said proof, and drug makers lobby the government - this is a very complete and mature chain, Zhang elaborated, 'They have various ways to exchange rights and interests through the Revolving Door system.'  

   "Zhang also pointed to 'the pan-liberalism trend in the US, which emphasizes the absolute freedom of individuals.' US governments, be they federal or state, are incapable of exercising effective regulation on many issues, although some of them, like drugs, have endangered the public."  

    Sadly, I don't think that one can argue with any of Zhang's assessment. In fact, it could be added that the American population in general isn't exactly making it difficult for exploitative corporations and corrupt politicians to get away with their criminal activities. Despite annual six-figure casualties from narcotics, the Drug Crisis doesn't even crack the top 10 of voter concerns.  

   As the report showed---and many of us recall---the Opioid Epidemic began first with Big Pharma in the 1990s, and surged after the US Occupation of Afghanistan. According to official sources, "from 1999 to 2017, more than 399,000 people died from drug overdoses that involved prescription and illicit opioids. Those addicted to opioids, both legal and illegal, are increasingly young, white, and female, with 1.2 million women addicted compared to 0.9 million men in 2015. The problem is worse in rural areas." Just as the 'Cocaine Epidemic' of the Bush-Clinton Era  proliferated narcotics among Black Communities, the Opioid Crisis of the Bush Jr-Obama Era targets the White working-class. 

    After the Biden 'Administration' seized power, Afghanistan was abandoned due to increasing anti-drug actions in the region---mostly by China and Iran. Operations were brought back to the United States and compromised Latin American countries. With the downfall of the Trump Justice Department and a complete stranglehold on the American Media, the Oligarchy has no fear of exposure. Since 2021, Opioid overdoses and addiction rates have returned to, and even surpassed pre-2017 levels. 

    The American drug epidemic is the result of an orchestrated policy, the Strategy of Tension, the Depopulation Agenda, and cultivating anti-China sentiments. Most importantly, though, it is also a product of our own making. The American public---which sees the effect of the crisis before its own eyes every day---continues pretending not to see, and so it goes along unabated.

TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK

     Yesterday, according to a notification from Google, this week is National Teacher Appreciation Week. It seems a bit ironic; given the rates of illiteracy, childhood/teen suicide and addiction, gender dysphoria, and violence proliferating our schools that we should have a week dedicated to this. It feels a bit like expressing appreciation to the Japanese for attacking Pearl Harbor. 

     For some inexplicable reason, the American public operates under the delusion that our educational system is above any criticism. This lack of any oversight or accountability has produced an administrative class rife with corruption and ideological fanaticism. I suspect that there are many reasons for this indifference.

   1. Many parents actually hate their kids;

   2. Many parents were too doped-up in school to remember how bad it was, and are still too doped-up to think about what their kids are going through;

   3. Many parents erroneously believe that the brutality and injustice that children receive prepares them with coping skills for adult life in postmodern America. (Sadly, there's some truth in this, but it's very perverse logic);

   


        Besides 1st Grade in a very small town, I was fortunate enough to escape most of the Living Hell that is public school. I did also attend a larger public school during 4th, 5th, and 6th Grade. I remember learning nothing in 4th Grade. 5th Grade arguably was one of the worst experiences of my life. We had two teachers: both Lesbians who made no secret of their hatred for boys and engaged in some grooming of the girls. Boys were beaten for the slightest offense. They used to take us out in the hallway and scream accusations at us by turns (like Gestapo interrogations in movies). One kid got his mouth duct-taped shut for loaning another a crayon. Every day one poor slob would get singled out for especial gaslighting and torture; and any student who showed any compassion for them got piled on too.

     I recall going "out in the hall" once because, as I was informed, a relative wanted a teacher conference to see why my grades were slipping and I feared going to school (both of which weren't normal me). We had to stand at full position-of-attention in front of these two bitches---at least one of whom carried a wooden paddle that they never hesitated to use on us. Even though I knew nothing about it, I got the full enhanced interrogation as to what I might have been saying out of class and given a warning to "remember that you have to come back here and face us, so it had better go well"---which I actually felt was getting off lightly. 

   In 6th Grade, the teachers really never did anything; they picked out the biggest bullies in the class and let them run things while they went off somewhere. I remember the kid who sat next to me used to deal drugs out of his desk, and pay the bullies a cut. If anybody got too disruptive for the bullies to handle, the teachers would take them to a small room at the end of the hall and beat them with a radiator hose---which was kind of clever of them since hoses rarely leave marks. I still remember a teacher coming in during the middle of class and announcing in front of us all that one girl was going to have to leave because her mother had just committed suicide. That was how that poor kid got the news. 

  These are the kinds of human scum that we're supposed to 'appreciate.' In my case, a Merciful Providence intervened and I got an opportunity to escape to a private boarding school. In the long run, my experience with public schools instilled a lifelong hatred of injustice and abusers of authority. In the short term though, I suffered from chronic insomnia, recurring nightmares, and a tendency for my arm to tremble or go numb in stressful situations, which took a few years to recover from. 


   Today, most schools (on paper at least) don't allow Corporal Punishment, but the bullying, gaslighting, and psychological abuse has gotten even worse. Many of those who actually pay attention have noticed that most postmodern schools are structured like prisons, complete with armed guards, metal detectors, humiliating searches, disregard for human rights, mass surveillance, lockdowns, etc. The situation has only worsened during the Scamdemic and the wake of considerable Media hype about mass-shootings.

   We're all familiar (one hopes anyway) with the abysmal failure of our public schools to achieve any of their stated purposes of actually educating anyone or preparing young people to become responsible participants in a self-governing society. We also are (or should be) well aware that all manner of radicalist propaganda is imposed on young minds and conformity to agendas rigidly enforced. And this is the where the real problem lies: it is categorically impossible that Americans are unaware of the problems---either the abuse or the failures or the corruption that is happening in plain sight of everybody. It's actually so bad that some within our much-maligned immigrant community residing on the Southern Border actually enroll their kids in Mexican schools and hire a bus driver to send them to school and back. I've actually known fathers here who've moved back with their families to countries like Nicaragua and Iraq for the sake of their children and concern over the conditions of the schools here. In fact, contrary to xenophobic 'Conservative' propaganda, Moslems are among the fastest-growing homeschooled population. 

     Unfortunately, our spiritless native-born population hasn't the will to make and enforce necessary changes. The Left is in complete denial that anything is wrong with the system, and chooses instead to throw more tax money at the system and write paranoid editorials about school shootings and 'extremism'. The Right is in denial too, and imagines that harsher discipline and imposing ideology will solve everything. Meanwhile, the system goes along on its merry way; churning out conformists, ignoramuses, neurotics, and addicts while the School Administrators roll around in the loot and laugh up their sleeves at the chumps who maintain their operations.


        What can be done? For most of us, not much. The US (for now anyway) still has lenient homeschooling and alternative schooling laws, so parents should take advantage of those. On a larger scale, there's no popular nor political will to do anything. What really needs to be done is what Bill Bennett suggested 30+ years ago: burn the whole system to the ground and start over---even if that means importing educators from countries with schools that actually function. Not that that's actually going to happen, but it's the best suggestion so far. Instead what will happen is the usual finger-pointing, a few superficial changes here and there, and American parents will go back to their drugs, infotainment, and blissful denial.
