The Morning Report - 1/18/21 [J.J. Sefton]

pinotche.jpg

Good morning, kids. Monday and I don't think I've had a more profound sense of dread in my life about what the next few days and afterward might have in store. About the only times that come close were the morning after Election Day and then 12 days ago on Black Wednesday, with Election Day 2008 bringing up the rear. In a bit less than 54 hours from the time of this post, the darkest, most malignant and dangerous enemy our nation, such as it was, had ever faced will seize power once and for all and never let go. Neither willingly nor, I fear, peacefully if at all. That enemy as Abraham Lincoln prophesied decades before the strife that tore this nation apart in the first Civil war sprang up amongst us.

We all know what will happen the moment Zhou Bai-Din lift's his filthy hand of The Bible and emits the words "so help me G-d" from a policy standpoint. We had more than a taste of it from 2009-2017. Blanket amnesty and instant citizenship alone for upwards of 30 million illegal aliens, and open borders for millions more mean not only further societal and cultural dissolution, but a permanent political majority for the Enemy's Democrat Party. On the bright side, at least you can be assured that elections will never again be rigged. Mostly because when Florida and Texas turn blue, they won't have to be.

For the past 50-60 years if not longer, the illusion of comity between the two main political and cultural factions, strained and often punctuated by bitter and sometimes violent confrontation, was maintained despite the vicissitudes of electoral politics. What everyone except the most perceptive of individuals failed to realize was that the rot had become so pervasive and so all encompassing that our house divided is now crashing down around us. We are now at a point where actual repression and persecution based on any political belief or opinion that contravenes the accepted meme of "Left = Good, Right = Evil" is not only acceptable but is demanded.

This is based on the so-called "riot" that took place on January 6th at the Capitol. As thousands of peaceful, patriotic Americans gathered to demonstrate their opposition to the certification of a stolen election, a few dozen or so Leftist confederates dressed in MAGA gear (and not very convincingly either) were allowed in by Capitol Police and other insiders, caused a ruckus and broke a few windows. Not exactly the Reichstag Fire in terms of actual damage, the cold-blooded execution of Ashli Babbit by an as yet unknown party notwithstanding. But the pretext was tailor-made to blood-libel two thirds of the nation as well as the President they support. So now, with January 20th almost upon us, is it just me or does anyone else think that another staged event of "right wing fascist white supremacist violence" is about to happen?

The failure to have any semblance of adequate security, despite apparent FBI warnings of possible trouble, is one of the baffling aspects of that day. It's why the Chief of the Capitol Police has resigned, and there needs to be a thorough investigation of how the Mayor of D.C. and others rejected requests for additional help.

Yet what is happening in D.C. now looks more like a military defensive posture than riot control or even an attempt to defend against small groups planning violence.

There are the National Guard troops, and bridges to the city will be shut on Tuesday. The 8-ft non-scalable fences around the Capitol are being replaced with 12-foot fencing. US Citizen and Immigration Services is closing its offices for two days.

AirBnb has declared a moratorium on people coming into the city using their services. Facebook has banned the creation of new event pages for D.C. It's likely these private entities took these actions at the request of security agencies...

...There are some possibilities. One is that this is a deliberate overreaction as a show of force to deter anyone even thinking about causing a problem. In a rational world, given the Capitol Hill riot, that would be an obvious explanation.

But this massive military show of force smacks of protecting against a threat that has not yet been disclosed publicly. They seem to be planning against a military mutiny. That's how it feels.

Something's happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear.

If there is some sort of Enemy action to remove Zhou Bai-Din and install Kamala-Toe or whomever, it's completely unnecessary. The Democrats and their RINO stooges can 25th Amendment his ass the hell out of there in a heartbeat. He's a puppet as it is and will go wherever Obama and Jarrett kick him. What I fear is some act being used as a pretext to declare a national emergency and shut down ALL voices of opposition. That includes not only the handful of patriots like Josh Hawley in Congress but this here website and all the others that are practicing actual journalism.

The sad truth is, given the brainwashing inflicted on at least two to three generations of Americans in the schools, the reinforcement of the messaging in the media and culture, the will to power of our elected politicians, the befehl ist befehl attitude of far too many in law enforcement and the rubber stamp of a corrupt judiciary, a pretext to "destroy the Constitution in order to save it" seems unnecessary. Then again, JFK was much more of an effective tool for the left in death than he ever was for his thousand days in the Oval Office.

Of course, there is always the possibility of DC being turned into an armed camp means the military is going to pull a Pinochet and ride to the rescue of President Trump and the nation. If you believe that, I have a bridge over the East River I can sell you. Cheap.

And then the footage rolls of. . . some chuckleheads crowding into the Senate chambers through an open (unbroken) door and then -- gasp! -- sitting in VP's seat, looking at papers left on desks.

Obama's election was disappointing for many reasons, but I could chalk it up to Bush sucking and further tarnishing the Republican brand, and low-info voters (proto wine moms) wanting an historic first. Black Wednesday dread? More just confusion, and "what the hell is going on?", mixed with some mirth thinking about how seething Nancy and her cronies must have been.

2020 is different, and truly dreadful. The blatant stolen election, betrayal of the Republican party, selling out to foreign governments, and hybridization of government and large corporate powers to suppress any dissent. Terrifying.

65 JJ, you give far too much credit to the left. At heart, they are the most incompetent people on the planet, divorced from reality, hiring for diversity instead of competency. I agree they will try to permanently shift control, but they lost house seats, are split 50 50 in the senate, and face opposition from a majority of states with Republican legislatures and governorships. Biden will be one-termer if he makes it that far. We are no longer on the defensive as conservatives. We are on the offensive as insurgents.

Alas, not a chance. For everyone else in America, there is no recourse for a drone flying over your property, annoying and spying on you. It's protected by FAA regulation, and even law enforcement and most military installations have little legal recourse to stop it.

Biden, however, is one of our elite leaders. All the tech that exists to easily stop drones is fully at his guardians' disposal. I hope they have some of the drone catching eagles around...

This whole armed occupation must be in response to some sort of perceived threat, but the only violent groups I know if making threats these days are Antifa/BLM. Could it be the far left is now going to try influencing the Harris administration in the same way they scared the voters, by burning shit down?

85 Were any of the rioters carrying firearms? More importantly, were any of them carrying nuclear weapons? The media calls it an insurrection. Really, if you are hoping to pull off an insurrection against a superpower with strategic bombers and submarine launched missiles, you had better have a few.

Has the media talked about how the insurrectionists were going to get and maintain air superiority?

This is just crazy talk. The military works very hard to impress upon its leaders that they are apolitical, subordinate to civilian leaders, and follow Constitution. They won't get involved in something like this...it's (I hate to say) not an obvious enough rejection of Constitutional norms.

The election may have been stolen, but courts and legislatures have procedures for addressing that, and they let it pass. It's not for the military to overturn that. Now, if states legally rejected the votes and appointed alternate electors, and people tried to kick Trump out anyway, then there's an obvious refusal to follow the process they could resist.

That may be, idk, but it's not like leftists or maybe a handful of real "white nationalists" saw the Q movement and decided this was their chance to glom on to a real grass roots thing. imo that happened to the Tea Party ... started mostly about fiscal control, then others jumped in and co-opted it, either from the right or the left.

Too bad there's nobody interested in examining just what the fuck happened to the Tea Party because if the derp state censors have their way any future accounting will be badly misstated. There were plenty of bad actors besides Cocaine Mitch to torpedo it, like establishment turds like Dick Armey trying to co-opt it.

Indeed. Among the Patriots, it was more like an "unguided walking tour". I saw a 60 Minutes clip of Nancy Pelosi showing of her "trashed" office. It was immaculate, except for a broken mirror - she said "broken glass was everywhere". They showed a video of "rioters", and it was just people milling about - nobody destroying ANYTHING, despite there being plenty to trash. A guy sat in her chair. No broken glass on the floor, but a few random papers. The only mirror in the scene wasn't broken.

Post-America 2021 requires that her family remain very quiet and keep their heads low. To do otherwise, to question anything, to bring attention to any facet of her murder, will garner serious death threats to her family. They will have to go underground.

229 The media keeps saying 5 (or 6) people were "killed" at the protest. Nobody knows who or how. They are still conflating a cop who was hit with a fire extinguisher with another cop who went back to the station and had a stroke. No information on any others beside Babbitt.
Posted by: jwest at January 18, 2021 09:13 AM (/BlEx)

Interesting. I heard that one protestor simply died from a heart attack, and they include THAT in the death toll from the "violence". It sounds like another was crushed in a crowd, for lack of crowd control by LE. If I ever heard what the third died from, I forget.

There have also been suspicious "suicides". One of a Capitol Hill cop who seemed like a pretty happy guy - bot suicidal at all. Supposedly many others have spoken of "hurting themselves". There's another, of an attendee after he went home to GA, and was charged. Also not a suicidal guy. I think somebody said he was the one in Pelosi's chair, but I can't say for sure if that's true.

241 I wonder if we could have a thread where people can relate the real-life fallout of all this political mendacity. I know stories of broken relationships pop up on nearly every political thread, from different people, but I suspect that the majority of posters have some story to tell about friends, neighbors and family who have decisively declared for the other side and are no longer fully connected with any more.


My only remaining close relative, my sister, has broken off all contact with me as of Jan. 6. Even though I had no part in the Epiphany Protest, even though I never even alluded to them in any way, and even though (and this is the kicker) we are both Canadians, living in Canada, and are in no way involved in the political affairs of a foreign country!


The last time this happened, in 2016, we were able to repair the relationship by avoiding all mention of politics, but this time I'm not going to do that. I can't have a relationship with someone who thinks I'm a suitable candidate for the Nuremberg Trials.

252 "Not exactly the Reichstag Fire in terms of actual damage, the cold-blooded execution of Ashli Babbit by an as yet unknown party notwithstanding."

I had heard that it was a Capitol Hill cop who was fired. That's probably a fake story to try to throw people off the trail too. There seem to be some pretty credible accounts that she's really dead, but everything about the video where you see her shot looks fake. The big one to me is that the gun wasn't even aimed upwards, besides diverting to the left before shooting. What was she doing there, with no friends in tow, right next to Antifa types?

But there were two suspicious characters involved - the shooter (who didn't act like any sort of cop, and whose weapon was conveniently in-frame for many seconds) and the guy who appeared on the scene to take charge within a few seconds - a guy who clearly was neither MAGA nor Antifa. Apparently NEITHER has been identified.

If you think otherwise, explain why the 1776 colonists were right but the 1861 Southerners were wrong. This is just one more moronic buy-in of the left narrative on race. Also read what Lincoln thought of Blacks and what he wanted done with freed slaves. Answers: To put it nicely, Lincoln did not believe in White/Black equality and he wanted slaves shipped back to Africa.

283 It is either psychotic, hysterical overreaction--which is the best case scenario--or the beginning of a formally totalitarian police state. Everything we have seen since Nov. 9, 2016, indicates the latter. Take note Esper would not carry out presidential orders when the Trump White House was under siege, but there has been no military hesitancy to turn D.C. into Fort Dodge.

The images flowing from this madness are troubling to the rest of the world and ominous to those of us who live here, how ever much longer that may be. The link about McConnell and Chao, and what we know about Chinese penetration of D.C. and blackmail of the Bidens, may have unsettled some elements of the military. We will know soon enough.

But no one in authority cares ... they seem to like having dirt on China Joe, easy to control him that way?

300 266 So why would Powell release any of her info to the public now? She is being sued by Dominion and that info now is evidence. She has a couple more court cases she has filed pending. Besides what good would it do now? The government will ignore it along with the media. Just like they have the Senate report on Hunter Biden and Joes corruption that was released last week. Where has anything been reported on that besides some internet sites and Newsmax?

Interesting, but at the same time it revisits the question of why somebody like Ashli was in that situation in the first place, and didn't even look to see if it was safe to pass through there - the gun was in plain sight.

The whole thing reeks of an intelligence operation, to me. Ashli's resume (what little we know of it) reminds me a bit of that of Carter Page, who was working undercover for the CIA. Mysterious characters both doing the deed AND extracting her before anybody else can get a good look.

Special Forces did an Op inside that very office. There are no coincidences.

I'd say it's obvious that they're not afraid of Dominion - they're afraid of the Deep State - a Biden DoJ - and the powerful actors behind Dominion. Dominion's first reaction was to practically go into hiding.

They are pretending to be. Q accomplished about nothing, but Nancy passed some silly thing in the House against it for publicity and to get it back in the news. IMO Q is a donk ploy, and was never more.

I feel bad for the President's legal team, no access to the courts, not even a hint of validation by that great bulbous hero, Barr (who even piled on after 1/6/21).
Now we have Cruz and Hawley being "cancelled" by the left, while people who incited violence all summer got a pass (including the worthless FBI and DOJ). As for Rudy and the laptop, I'm sure Barr and Wray used every power of intimidation to get it to the FBI where it will be destroyed or just returned to Hunter.
To rail against an oligarchy is fine, but you have to acknowledge the large part played by the DOJ/FBI. Without them, the techies could not have succeeded.

Exactly. Trump has been doing a great many things that would make no sense if he thought Biden was about to come in and immediately reverse them. Take a look at Pompeo's Twitter - it can be VERY interesting.

In one example, Pompeo Tweets all day about Iran, and then the very next day you hear about blackouts in Iran. Gen McInerny tells us Iran was doing some of the election hacking. More recently, he's been Tweeting some rather hostile things towards China. One of Trump's recent actions against China has been described as "an economic declaration of war". Cutting off various kinds of investments in China, that I guess can do some really serious damage to the Chinese economy.

We're practically at war with China - nobody seems to be sitting back and clearing out their desks.

I think it was Q who first warned of the Deep State. I happened upon a Q site on MeWe within the last week or two in looking for Trump-related info. There's some nutty stuff, but it also had the best links to real stuff that I had run across (which is what I wanted). Other sites (including this one) had gone "gray".

It has disappeared recently, part of the Great Communist purge going on.

Of course the Trump appointees are clearing out their desks, the order to do so, came out 1/7 and as for laptops, the appointees are being sent boxes for the official return of those and cell phones as well. Please get out of the clouds and stop spreading nonsense. The Trump people got their order to resign and turn in their equipment, it's just the way it is and no fabulism from Thomas Wictor or the Cates brothers will change that.

313 Further, Jan 16 Trump issued this official document:

"Text of a Notice on the Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to the Southern Border of the United States" ...link goes to whitehouse.gov. https://preview.tinyurl.com/y4rtvoqn

Basically stating that the US is still under a declared emergency, which empowers the President to activate special powers under a crisis.

Also released last week, this document with specific reminders of compliance: FCC ENFORCEMENT ADVISORY: ENFORCEMENT BUREAU REMINDS EMERGENCY ALERT SYSTEM (EAS)
PARTICIPANTS OF COMPLIANCE OBLIGATIONS

319 As far as "clearing out their desks", that was rhetorical. Trump's term ends, constitutionally, on 20JAN, noon. Whatever happens, he'll be out of there, along with anybody else whose term is up by law. The real question is whether they let Biden take the oath - thereby criminally attempting to seize power - or spare us that profanity by nailing him on simple pedophilia.

320 I guess when half the journalists in the country and ardent disciples and another 45% are unapologetic apologists, the optics of 25K armed troops, checkpoints, razor wire and no spectators for a "virtual" inauguration don't really matter. Some are claiming the troop presence is to guard against federal troops descending on the Capitol and taking over. The simpler explanation is that they had to provide some kind of cover for Biden not having anyone show up for the Potemkin inauguration.

323 If all of the military is to thwart the citizenry righteously pissed off at the theft of our election and the murder of our republic by the institutions we trusted to protect it, they needn't have bothered. This would be a poor moment for us. If the military stance is to thwart the military, good luck with that unless they are going to staff the ramparts with only officers commissioned/promoted during the Obama era (the only ones likely to a man to ignore their oaths to the Constitution). If this is something else, I guess we shall see.

328 Things have a funny way of turning in a direction you might not expect.

All this doom and gloom really isn't healthy. It's personally validating I guess but it's neither helpful or healthy. And quite frankly it's immature.

Think about the priorities this nation had as little as fifteen years ago. The political situation at home. The war abroad.

Think about how things developed over that time and at least have some perspective.

329 The funny thing about "conspiracy theories" (apart from their often being true) is that they essentially operate as a society's hypotheses.

It is impossible to know the answer to almost any important question, at the time asked. And so limiting speech to only that which is determined to be "true" (even holding aside obvious bias in who makes that determination) inherently limits discourse only to superficial questions. By design of course.
