The Morning Report - 12/23/20 [J.J. Sefton]

Good morning, kids. It's amazing that even in the face of a stolen election, where the odds of the President having his rightful victory restored are fading fast, the nation doused with gasoline and the propagandist media playing with matches, the Enemy still manages to shoot itself in the face. Despite the suffering and dislocation caused by Hostage Crisis 2: Democrat Lockdown Boogaloo, most Americans took one look at that 5,300-plus page catalog of raw sewage and told Washington DC "LOLGF." The cherry on the parfait was the footnote of an afterthought of a passing fancy of tossing $600 in chump change to each suffering American while, among other insanities, several Latin American third world shit holes will receive hundreds of millions of dollars to study why their own citizens are beating a path to our border. This includes one of our greatest nemeses, Venezuela; the rotten kernel of hominy in the steaming turd of socialism whose involvement via Smartmatic and Dominion in stealing our election technically constitutes an act of war. But I digress.

I bring up the $600 insult because probably the most vile woman in America, Malig-Nancy Pelosi, who spends $600 per pint on her Berries 'n Botox gelato, called it significant - - barely two years after referring to the President's $2,500 tax cut as "crumbs." Now as the day breaks, with Trump insisting on more than tripling the relief payments to $2,000, Pelosi jumped at the offer. She may be dumb but she's not stupid. Even the propagandists who normally provide air cover for their own were getting on her case for delaying any sort of relief until after the election. I direct you to the link where once again, she goes boob to moob with Wolf Blitzer. Also, see the link where she proudly displayed the Democrats' trademark reputation for peace, love, understanding and tolerance where she proclaimed she was going to grab President Trump by his hair and drag him out of the Oval Office come January 20th.

Well, we'll see about that, but in the meantime the President is once again in the driver's seat. Between the lockdowns, the riots, the election theft and every other depredation we have suffered these past 10 months, the American people are in no mood for DC champing at the bit to get back to business as usual. The President should either veto or pocket veto this travesty and demand the Swamp put a one-page bill on his desk that cuts checks to each legal American citizen, period. He has nothing really to lose and much to gain in terms of underscoring one of the main reasons he was elected - AND REELECTED - in the first place. And to hell with the GOP. Only six senators voted against this bill. The other 46 can all die in a fire. If by some miracle the January 6th session to certify the Electoral College vote actually does wind up in Congress for a final determination, it is now well within the realm of possibility that the GOP, at least in the Senate, will stab Trump in the face.

President Trump must veto this monstrosity and shove it back down the collective maw of Congress. It's the smart move, in both the short and long term.

Aside from the usual election theft battles, some interesting links including:

- An interesting analysis that counters the assumption that the Chi-Coms are in the ascendancy.
- Daniel Greenfield on the CDC embracing their inner Mengele.
- Gavin Newson pisses off the racialist bean-counters by tapping a Latino and not a black female to take Kamala Toe's senate seat (did she resign yet?).
- Another West Point cheating scandal.
- PDT pardons 20 before Christmas including George Papadopoulos and Steve Stockman...

And other picture postcards. Have at it.

Think of Trump before he came down the elevator, what would you have said? Vain, egotistical, narcissistic, just to name a few. Do you think he wants a video clip of him conceding the election to Sundown Joe? For all posterity? Of course not. Jan 6 will come & go with Plugs' EC certification rubber stamped.

31 one of which is to fight "health inequities" and another is to "promote justice".

This has ZERO to do with health care and 100% to do with abuse and disrespect of middle class white citizens.

I saw this in school many year ago when we were told that integration would solve all of the problems for black children. And then the next thing you know is that my 4th grade books and 5th grade books were exactly the same. So many black kids could not get through the 4th grade materials that the school repeated the 4th grade and called it the 5th. My parent had the good sense to move.

I've been following the tale of Steve in the annuls of American Thinker; most of the missives written by his wife.

Most wives, upon seeing their husband convicted of some baddity, file for divorce and grab all the assets they can.

She didn't. She has stood by her man, and screamed Injustice at the skies for years now.

Was he a railroaded Repub? Probably.

He certainly wouldn't be the first.

For the legal beagles : if Trump resigns now, like today, is he eligible to run for one v two more terms in the future(ie his having not completed a first term)?????.

If it allows Trump to run for two more terms if he resigns now ....AMF....for now.

199 If by some miracle the January 6th session to certify the Electoral
College vote actually does wind up in Congress for a final
determination, it is now well within the realm of possibility that the
GOP, at least in the Senate, will stab Trump in the face.

During the Obama years, some folks came to the conclusion that significant portions of the GOP weren't all that opposed to the Obama agenda. They came to that conclusion over things like the Corker Amendment and the treatment of the Tea Party. They were called black pilled, delusional, and other such things by those that viewed themselves as realistic and mature about how politics worked.

Some of those black pilled people warned, as early as the day after Election Day 2016, that the GOP would turn on Trump. The same mature folks in the room dismissed this out of hand. The black pilled ones concluded that the retirements of forty something House Republicans were an effort to throw the House to hinder Trump. Again, labelled as nothing more than conspiracy theory fantasy by the self-styled clear eyed realists.

The GOP has settled the debate that has been the source of more confrontation and argument here than anything - including the occasional sessions of revisionist history and virtue signalling when discussing the Civil War. The GOP has revealed its true nature. They've moved beyond Failure Theater. Like Marshall Petain - they have chosen open collaboration.

The total run was about 175 miles, and the instruments returned 31.2 mpg. This is on a big sedan with one lightweight passenger, too.

I swear, as I crossed back into LA from MS, the car looked back over its shoulder like a horse at his cowboy, and said, "Do we have to go back, Boss?"

Back when TFG got elected, I and many others said 'not my president'. In 2016, many Dems said the same about Trump.

But this is so fraudulently different, I suggest this small change --

'not THE president' if SloJoe slides in

Cuz this fucker didn't win. Period.

I just quit paying attention. There's always some tantalizing new scrap of info that's going to turn everything on it's head - and nothing ever happens as a result.

Everything is out there for all to see - its as plain as day. At this point, either people are willing to see it or they ain't. We're not talking logic anymore - we're talking faith in political parties and processes. You can't argue faith. I don't have it and never have. Obviously - quite a few people have it and will never give it up. So be it.

It's about character. If you can't have honor when nobody is looking, you have to doubt whether you had it in the first place. If you've been in, you know there are plenty of opportunities where you are on your own. We have people tossed out or kicked out of training for cheating on things like NAV. Fucking inexcusable. I won't put my life in the hands of some pog like that.
