Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | The Morning Report — 7/23/24Good Morning Kids. Horrendous a human being as Joe Biden is (or was assuming he is still alive let alone compos mentis or compost) what the Democrat Left and the other powers that be did to him and to all of us, regardless of our politics, is every bit as disgusting as what has been done to Donald Trump vis a vis the shampeachments and kangaroo court show trials, let alone the assassination attempt. I get no schadenfreude from it, as it is yet another indication that whatever last vestiges of our nation as founded, and any shred of decency, morality and ethics have been completely eviscerated, or are on the verge of it. Because those who installed Biden after sabotaging and then stealing the 2020 election somehow now feel as if their hold on power and their chance to seize and cement it once and for all sense that that ultimate goal might be slipping away, for a host of reasons, felt it necessary to get rid of him via what was and is in fact a textbook coup.The putschists who prevailed against President Biden therefore err badly in their assumptions, chief among them the belief that the office, not the man, is the singular thing conferring meaning and therefore power. This is an easily arrived-at error in the fantasyland of propositional civics, which replaces people with concepts, and in fact expects the people to conform to the concept: a coerced reversion to the pre-political state. But the truth is that a nation, contrary to propositionalism’s core thesis, is both man and law, both persons and forms. Moreover, the man and the person are the most important elements. In 1798 a predecessor in the presidency wrote to the First Brigade of the Third Division of the Militia of Massachusetts, then preparing to go to war with the French Republic, reminding its officers that “[o]ur Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Solemn affirmations of basic rights are after all commonplaces in the constitutions and laws of nearly every autocratic society. . . . This, the ranks of dead collectivities, is where the United States finds itself under the present regime. The coup d’état of July 21st is merely a dramatic symptom. Note the artifice of it all, shot through with the cant and strictures of propositionalism. We could list the details at length, from the rapid coordination of the involved elites, each pursuing the fiction of reaction to affairs that they themselves authored, to the overthrow of the expressed will of tens of millions of primary voters. That process now lies exposed not as mass democracy, but as mass theater. One of the minor historical ironies here is that when Joe Biden first assumed elected office — a moment in time closer to the existence of a Habsburg Emperor than to now — the American presidential-selection system was undergoing a convulsive change, from party-elder diktat mostly via caucuses, to truly democratic primaries. What we just saw in the coup was supposed to have been rendered impossible back when our grandfathers were in middle age. Now we know better. We saw, and we know.Meanwhile Joe Biden who, despite being pulled out of the race by the powers that be is nowhere to be seen. He is after all still supposedly the alleged president. And as Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in the US neither Biden nor his presumptive replacement Kamala Harris were there to greet him. Despite the fact that this is their function, and that Israel is or at least was a staunch ally, their absence is telling. Even heads of state who visit that are not our allies, and some who are even considered rivals or enemies are traditionally met by the President. The fact that greeting Bibi could lose the Democrats Minnesota and Michigan and the support of those who harass or assault Jews on campuses and even in the streets in broad daylight I'm sure was part of the calculus, as well as not wanting to anger their friends in Tehran. So, Biden and Harris are absent, so who is running the show. Meanwhile, this Kim Cheatle hack got roasted alive on Capitol Hill by the GOP and viciously and surprisingly by the Democrats. Many of whom have called for her resignation. I guess it's good theater. Have a good day.

Because Cheatle will not say that seven shell casings were recovered from the roof, we know there's a second shooter, maybe the killer. Politicians everywhere of either party should be concerned because maybe they're next. Schedule some outdoor political event or rally? I doubt it. Cheatle stonewalling them pretty much guarantees they're gonna use every tool they have to force the truth out. Self preservation means more, in this case, then party loyalty.

Joe can't last as titular POTUS -- FFS, he may already be dead.
So POTUS Kamala, as predicted. Titular only, of course. Obama / Klain have always been running things, it's my belief, with help from their Deep State friends co-opted during Obama's reign from 2008 to 2016. And their well-laid plans have them backed into a corner with only sub-optimal End Game moves to play. Their best sub-optimal move is to install Hillary to boost turnout to save down-ticket seats with the chance that Hillary can win with some cheating. But Obama may not agree. The only other play is to knock over the chess board with an obvious Coup Coup more glorious than the Coup of 2020. Will the Deep State go along? Will Hillary play along? Developing ...

With the complete lack of any discussion about the snipers that were confirmed by the SS to be in the building and reported on by news agencies left and right but suddenly forgotten about in the same clips discussing the shots, I'm beginning to assume they're foreign agents/military.

- I don't disagree, especially with the weird little pop at the end of the hectic three or four round burst after the first three almost perfectly spaced shots. Pop, pause, pop, pause, pop. And no echo. And then tranny started with the barrage because it was the signal, and then someone shot him. Ten seconds later a SS agent fired for whatever reason.

The game changed abruptly during their lifetimes, as major companies shed defined benefit plans and replaced them with voluntary retirement accounts managed by workers. As this momentous change took place, the urgency of the moment was not impressed upon workers, and generational optimism blinded many to the difficult road ahead.
I am approaching retirement and so I spend some amount of time trying to prepare for my new financial reality. I watch a number of youtube videos from "retirement advisors" and one thing always irritates me is when they do a video called something along the lines of "are you richer than you think". These videos will always go into government reports on what percentage of the population has x dollars saved. Like it matters. If I don't have enough money to reasonably cover my expenses for the rest of my life, it's irrelevant if 90% of the population is worse off.

That 'hearing' the other day was just kabuki theatre. If there were a real opposition party, let alone real intent to govern, there would have been a bill ready to send to the floor for a vote to strip the salaries of Mayorkas and his Secret Cervix Director of their salaries. And there would be subpoenas for the LEOs on duty that day to come and testify.

We'll see if Kamala consolidates and continues forward or if she still gets pitched with another fake or real controversy over the next few weeks.

I've said this before; giving Kamala the Oval Office for the next several months, even if she's not the nominee, gets that historic first black, woman president moniker for the Democrats. That it'd be the shortest term in history isn't relevant to them.
But I agree whoever is tapped to be her VP is a tell on whether they plan another election steal or not. Because that person will likely be the president in 2025 if the Democrats think they can get away with ditching Harris and running that person. Now or later.

Getting roasted alive in Esagila, Babylon DC is what is meant by "taking full responsibility", not resigning, getting fired or actually taking responsibility and being one of several thrown in prison for plotting the murder of PDJT .

Good morning and thanks for the news J.J. You are in my prayers
I have to believe that if God saved Trump from getting shot in the head then he also has a greater purpose for Trump. I don’t know if that is to help steer the country back towards God, I don’t know if it was to bring Trump closer to God, but I do feel that God‘s hand is on Trump and I praying this country as well For the last several years, my prayer every day to God has been that he expose what’s going on in such a way that nobody can deny it. I feel like these prayers are being answered. I also think that the GOP should be raising hell and calling for a transfer of power immediately making Kamala the president. The world is too dangerous of a place to not have at least a figurehead at this point someone who is at least capable of answering a phone call. It baffles me the lack of concern that Biden hasn’t been seen or given a speech. Posted by: Spypeach at July 23, 2024 08:05 AM (UuB/1) 196

Speaking of fidelity, women's infidelity in marriage has risen 40% over the last 30 years...
But that still means 23% of men have physically cheated on their spouse, while 13% of women have. As for emotionally cheating, 45% of men have done so, while 35% of women have done so... So, even with the huge growth in women cheating, men are still physical cheaters 43% more in marriage and emotional cheaters 22% more in marriage than women are. From techreport this year...

The coup d’état of July 21st is merely a dramatic symptom. Note the artifice of it all, shot through with the cant and strictures of propositionalism. We could list the details at length, from the rapid coordination of the involved elites, each pursuing the fiction of reaction to affairs that they themselves authored, to the overthrow of the expressed will of tens of millions of primary voters.
++++ Where was all the flowing prose during the three-year slow-motion coup against Trump? What makes him see them as different, if he does? They are alike in fact.

I have to believe that if God saved Trump from getting shot in the head then he also has a greater purpose for Trump.
So I am studying aspects of what is meant by "Messenger of God" and "Word of the LORD" in the original and one thing that comes out is the The God That Can't Be Seen, and the God that is seen. (eg. Moses at Mt Sinai). In a spiritual sense, there are the Dark Forces that can't be seen and the same Dark Force that can be seen. (eg. demon possession) The Dark Forces that can't be seen used "cut-outs" like the sniper, the parents of the sniper, Mayorkas, Cheatle, CIA recruiters, Doctor Jill, FBI agents, various Party Donors and Stewards, etc. to Be Seen in roles that doesn't make them the prosecutable Shot Caller, but people used by the unseen Dark Forces to effect the too often scene in Revolutions and that is to kill enemies of the Darkness.

Interesting. Thanks. Posted by: Moron Robbie - What about the confirmed SS snipers in the 2nd story window watching the shooter at July 23, 2024 08:12 AM (4NrhA) Yes. Exactly. For men, sex is way less valued emotionally, but is way more physical. For women, it's the opposite. So, if you've decided to sleep with someone else, while a man doesn't think much of it b/c it's a physical action, for a women, it's an emotional betrayal (if done to her) or an emotional break (if she walks and does it elsewhere). I always told my husband if he ever cheated, it was over. There was never gonna be any question. Posted by: Nova Local at July 23, 2024 08:14 AM (exHjb) 248

91%! Why bother even getting married if you live in Portugal.
Posted by: Lady in Black at July 23, 2024 08:13 AM (mupln) ++++ They don't. Marriages are up, but off such a shockingly low baseline that big moves are easy. Age of first marriage is 25 for men and 32 for women. Marriage is dead in Portugal. Even those who opt to in marriage are doing so too late to matter. While improving slightly recently (bouncing around), the fertility rate in Portugal is 1.36, which is down in fertility trap territory. Left unabated, there won't be a Portugal in a hundred years.

Wow. No one showed up to greet him. As for Cheatle, who will fire her, with seemingly no one in charge? Mayorkas, like Cheatle and Biden before him, issued a written statement on DHS's website on Sunday to announce his special commission to investigate.

I always told my husband if he ever cheated, it was over. There was never gonna be any question.
Success in any relationship starts with loving God more than you love the other person. It sounds bad to the uninitiated, but love of God ought to be the pinnacle and everything else flows from that starting point. When one thinks about it, a relationship shouldn't be based on emotions or feelings because If We Are What We Eat, then a pizza could destroy a marriage because food alters brain chemicals which has an effect on emotions (ref Esau and a bowl of chili) So a transcendent quelle must be there. Or in the form of a bumper sticker: No woman is worth an eternity in Hell because of adultery (ref 1 Corinthians 6:9-10) Posted by: Unknown Drip Under Pressure at July 23, 2024 08:23 AM (rHxhM) 294

The judge ruled that the remaining statement — which was also a reference to the board and not Jankowicz, despite showing an image of her as it was said — was not disinformation because it was a factual statement that matched the wording in the board's own charter describing its purpose.

People have sent me a post from Emily Goodin, senior White House correspondent for the DailyMail from July 17th. She documented that the flight time from Vegas to Dover was 3hrs 48 mins—extremely fast—and that AF1 flew so fast the "plane shook." This seems to confirm reports of how urgently AF1 took off out of Vegas. The questions now are: Did Joe Biden have a serious medical event in Vegas that has been covered up? Did that medical event contribute to his decision to pull out of the race? How precarious is Joe Biden's current health condition? Posted by: andycanuck (wse2C) at July 23, 2024 08:45 AM (wse2C) 398

Yeah, there's a difference between real vanilla and the artificial stuff, and of course quantity has an effect.

Nashville is a fledgling prog utopia. The reality of southern neonazism is quite different from that. You *can* find it. It's there. Drive down rural highways in Tennessee for long enough, and you'll see one of its vocal practitioners. Almost all examples of it look the same. It will be a rural area. Most of the houses (or small farms) will be somewhat shabby but well kept. There will be a few examples of decaying wrecks of houses that are one stiff breeze away from collapsing, set in weed-choked lots. If you are going to find KKK or Nazi banners, they will be on one of those houses. You can find Klansmen and neo-Nazis in Tennessee, but not marching through Nashville of all places.

Tighten the belt, eat your savings, be set back - but live through it and keep a roof over your head and food on the table. If you do it the other way, you quickly run out of runway and bad things happen and you get to add the loss of all those toys and often your house, too, to the mix - adding the stresses of liquidation and moving to an already bad time.

In 2016 Trump battered 16 professional Republican politicians to win the nomination in the debates and then did the same to the inevitable Hillary. He was too aggressive with Biden in 2020 and it backfired but he actually did very well with Biden a couple weeks ago. He was calm, knowledgable, funny and on point with details.

Hokkaido, Japan. It was noticeable in every public place the country is old and getting older.

Posted by: LenNeal at July 23, 2024 08:57 AM (bFId9) ++++ Japan still has those "safety nets" at least for now. So do we, at least for now. But neither of us can afford it. With no spouses and no children, life is going to get *very* hard for the elderly. Imagine going through health decline or - G-d forbid - dementia with zero support. Even if you have money - either yours or welfare - to keep a roof over your head, there will be nobody to help you. It's going to be very, very hard and I suspect the mortality will be high. Watch the "life expectancy at age 50" figure closely, because the odds are good that it's going to decline precipitously as this new reality sets in.

"He then disappeared from public view for nearly two hours while reporters waited outside the restaurant in extreme heat, pacing along the president’s motorcade and knocking on the car windows to ask staff members for an update." He left tarmac at 3:20pm. Reporters said AF1 traveled so fast back to Delaware that "the plane shook." The oversaturation of coverage about Kamala Harris not only is designed to boost her from a political pariah to KWEEN in a matter of 24 hours but to cover up what appears to be a major medical event suffered by Biden. FURTHER, if accurate, this contradicts reporting that Biden gracefully exited the race to put "country over party." More likely he raged about being able to stay in the race despite his incapacitation. Only until Pelosi threatened to go public with the possible stroke news did he relent.

It's too much to think Kamala is the head of the coup, right? She's mostly the face of it. But it's amazing how quickly they got all the poster designs and campaign slogans going from the first moment on. "The Prosecutor vs. The Felon." Golly gee, I wonder how many weeks of market testing they did to land on that? Funny enough our very own Ellipsis predicted that slogan back on the 11th. Really! "466 So will it be Kamala and a five month tongue bath with her as the Most Amazing President Evar? The tough prosecutor vs the felon?

Inventing a persona for her just to be afraid doesn't help either. When she ran in 2020 she was adored by the media as the female version of Obama. She was showered with fawning media and it was widely thought she was going to be the nominee. Then the debates started. She left the campaign never rising about a couple percent in the polls and before a single vote was cast. The only reason she is in this position is because she survived CA Democrat machine politics and Joe specifically announced he was going to have a DEI black female VP. That narrowed the field a tad. Seriously, go listen to any of her speeches and interviews over the last 3 1/2 years and tell me this woman fills you with dread. Even Democrats don't really like her.

Posted by: Ribbed ======= There is a shot of Rupert Murdoch and his sour grapes attitude when Vance was selected as VP. I am beginning to believe that Fox was more or less the center of global idiocy in the GOP and responsible in part for the turn from sober analysis to idiotic nation building and globalism built on the blood from 9/11. Certainly, the Murdochs are singularly responsible for the continuing political existence and influence of the Texas Toad, Karl Rove and should be reviled for that in and of itself. The disintegration of American industry is in part because the media, tech, etc. are all cloud people floating above the real economy. Time to turn them off permanently and cut the cord. Plenty of other media alternatives including now Twitter to get your news rather than Fox or the other Murdoch ruined properties like the Wall Street Journal.

Kamala Harris has no accomplishments as senator and vice president so Democrats are running on her record as a "prosecutor" and CA AG from years ago. Except her record in both positions was dismal--in some ways she was a Soros prosecutor before being a Soros prosecutor was cool--and she flopped as a presidential candidate. Only the sheep that populate the Democratic Party will buy "the prosecutor v the felon" messaging. She has supported every criminal act from BLM riots and illegal border crossings to the Biden family crime racket. Now Dems are rebranding her as a tough-on-crime warrior? Give me a small break.

I have come to the cynical belief that, in modern history at any rate, bubbles are inflated/popped as a way to remove money from the commoners who've managed to save some and put it into the hands of their betters.

Fox News reports this morning that their poll shows Biden 45 Trump 45. So what sort of idiotic voting public do we have in this country that half the people want a demented person for president. And one with a terrible record to boot. Now they are wanting an empty headed woman? I am not sure there is any saving this country. All this is depressing and mind boggling.

>>I really wish people would quit dumping on President Trump. Is he the best? I'm going with "yes" because he's a multi billionaire who could have walked away from all this and let the country burn. He's chosen to lay his life and fortune on the line for America, and, by extension, all Americans.
And through force of will completely took over the Republican Party and changed it from a globalist uniparty to an America First party in 8 years. One of the most remarkable political movements in history. Posted by: JackStraw at July 23, 2024 09:30 AM (LkLld) 647

I love everything you just said and agree. I despise Fox News. Posted by: Ribbed ===== I quit watching them before the end of GWB's term and tuned GWB's worthless ass out in his second term. I turned on in 08 and 12 on election night and the televised midnight panicked run of Karl Rove to the grimy election decision room was a thing of hilarity in a dark comedy that was the 2012 election. Makes me think that Rove really believed the returns would favor the GOP Romneybot rather than TFG. That election was probably dirty as well as TFG was not that popular.

I think the new narrative coming out of the Democrats is going to be something along the lines that the party's are "even" now that both have had a candidate denied the presidency.

Posted by: AnnaS A) turn Fox off--they are controlled opposition and Rupert Murdoch and his clan hate actual conservatives. B) Fox consistently produces outlier polling going back decades and has actually the worst polling results of media polls which is saying something. Fox uses those intentionally bad polls to manipulate the people watching them--either to go doomer or to promote an endless array of the fake conservatives like Ladybugs Lindsay as The Way. Turn them off and cut the cord so they don't get a nickel of ad revenues. Posted by: whig at July 23, 2024 09:34 AM (RcRst) 665

They will stick with kamala since they’re running out of time. After the dnc convention they have less then 3 months to the election. Right now they are ramping up the glorification of kammie and if she’s replaced at the convention that’s less time for the glorification of a potential replacement. Guessing kammie will announce a veep suggestion soon, a strong candidate that will cover a few of her flaws to help boost her run for the nomination. Lastly, Biden is alive, diminished but alive.

572 The big problem with "Deadwood" for all the good stuff was dedicating..what was it?...six(?) episodes to Swearington's kidney issues.
And with no real payoff to the time invested in that episode. I guess the take-away there was having kidney stones in the Old West sucked. Fine, whatever, good thinking there Einstein. Posted by: naturalfake at July 23, 2024 09:15 AM (eDfFs) ———- I believe that arc started at the beginning of the second season, after Swearengen and Bullock hook up and go over the balcony together. Al’s kidney stone issues worsen as a result. I haven’t gotten there yet in the rewatch, but if I recall correctly, Al sort of softens up a bit, personality-wise, as a result of that infliction. So maybe that’s the reason the producers drug it out, to make it stick, Posted by: SpeakingOf at July 23, 2024 09:44 AM (6ydKt) Posted by: FenelonSpoke at July 23, 2024 09:47 AM (oWk6O) 677

The coup d’état of July 21st is merely a dramatic symptom.
++++ Where was all the flowing prose during the three-year slow-motion coup against Trump? What makes him see them as different, if he does? They are alike in fact. The Party operators are in charge and taking out inconvenient executives. The type of inconvenience is quite different, but the basic condition and approach are essentially the same. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at July 23, 2024 08:08 AM I read someone comment somewhere that this is now the 3rd coup in under 10 years. First coup was the Democrat Presidential primary in 2016 to eliminate Bernie Sanders to anoint Hillary Clinton. Second coup was the 2020 election steal to remove President Trump and install Biden/Harris. And now this third coup to remove Biden and install Harris. Combine that with the Plandemic, the Whitmer kidnapping operation and the Jan 6th black op (not to mention undermining the Trump Administration from Jan 2017 to January 2021) and the Deep State has been very busy the past 10 years.
