The Morning Report - 4/29/21

Good morning kids. Thursday and of course the big story is last night, a somewhat ambulatory (when not stumbling up staircases) dementia patient who can't even address an envelope somehow addressed a joint session of Congress. For what purpose, I'm not quite sure. It wasn't a State of the Union Speech because those are usually given in January and the cold, hard truth is there is no more union. But, I'll give the old bastard props, or his medical team for administering the right combination of Resperidone, Memantine and crystal meth. Aside from the trillions of dollars in debt he and his handlers want to saddle us with, Joe Biden delivered with crystal clarity an unambiguous message of power, lies and fear, all rolled into one overarching theme, not just of last night but since time immemorial: Hatred. Hatred of you, me and the nation formerly known as the United States of America.

The tone was set early with a whopper that would have made another famous leftist Josef Goebbels beam with pride. Joe Biden referred to the Capitol Hill protest of January 6th, 2021, as the...

"worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War."

Aside from the fact that we are not a democracy but a representative constitutional republic - or at least we were - and that the "attack" was carried out by agents provocateurs of the Democrats in the form of BLM/Antifa confederates dressed as MAGA rally goers and police who with malice aforethought were either were kept away from the Capitol building or allowed the aforementioned BlaM-tifarians to enter the building and in one case assassinated an unarmed rally goer Ashli Babbitt, the absolute ludicrousness of the statement would be laughable were it not for the fact that a large percentage of our population think 9/11 is a convenience store, Pearl Harbor is a grunge band from Seattle and have no idea what the Civil War is. That's because to know its significance would be to understand that everything their minds are being poisoned with in terms of "critical race theory" and "structural racism" is the titanic mega-mind-fuck to end all mind-fucks.

As for the January 6th event at the Capitol that Biden stunningly called the worst attack since the Civil War, not a single person arrested was armed. The only person killed, Ashli Babbitt, was murdered by a member of the Capitol Police who to this day remains unnamed. That the FBI and DOJ have pretended those present that day were all domestic terrorists is a shocking turn of events. They've even placed some on a no-fly list, which is entirely unconstitutional. Their crimes were petty in comparison to the BLM/Antifa riots that destroyed numerous cities over the summer.
We all knew that Obama had weaponized all the federal agencies, from the IRS to the FBI ,but now we know just how far down the road to Marxism they've gone. We suffered a coup. How else do we explain the feds raiding Rudy Giuliani's residence but refusing to take the copy of Hunter Biden's laptop hard drive which is chock full of child porn among other disgusting things? Hunter Biden gets a job teaching at Tulane and Rudy Giuliani is under investigation! There is so much wrong with this picture.
We are definitely not in Kansas anymore, to borrow a phrase from the Wizard of Oz. We are fast becoming a facsimile of Mao's China or, when we see that vaccine passports may be required, Hitler's Germany. Biden is the dim and clueless tip of the spear of the Alinskyite left's trojan horse. Unless the Republicans develop a collective spine, America and the freedoms guaranteed by our Constitution are soon to be gone.
Sadly, the fact that the timorous Republicans voted to confirm nearly every one of Biden's radical, racist cabinet appointees does not bode well for America's survival. They've put us at the mercy of an almost vicious anti-American left...
...No doubt millions of Americans who bothered to watch Biden's speech were horrified by his claim that the January 6th not-insurrection was the "worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War." It was an appalling statement, a monumental lie that betrayed his administration's contempt for the American people. These people must be defeated.

The actual highlight of the night wasn't Biden but was Senator Tim Scott's rebuttal and refutation of the poisonous bilge that emanated from the so-called quote-unquote "president's" filthy sewer. Most powerfully was his dismantling of the "Jim Crow" smearing of Georgia's new voter integrity laws and the overall theme of the genocidal blood-libeling of white people. Judging by the reactions from the usual suspects, (links below) he definitely touched a nerve:

Today, kids are being taught that the color of their skin defines them again -- and if they look a certain way, they're an oppressor. From colleges to corporations to our culture, people are making money and gaining power by pretending we haven't made any progress at all, by doubling down on the divisions we've worked so hard to heal.
You know this stuff is wrong. Hear me clearly: America is not a racist country. It's backwards to fight discrimination with different types of discrimination. And it's wrong to try to use our painful past to dishonestly shut down debates in the present.
I'm an African American who has voted in the South my entire life. I take voting rights personally. Republicans support making it easier to vote and harder to cheat. And so do the voters! Big majorities of Americans support early voting, and big majorities support Voter I.D. -- including African Americans and Hispanics. Common sense makes common ground.
But today, this conversation has collapsed. The state of Georgia passed a law that expands early voting; preserves no-excuse mail-in voting; and, despite what the president claimed, did not reduce Election Day hours. If you actually read this law, it's mainstream! It will be easier to vote early in Georgia than in Democrat-run New York.
But the Left doesn't want you to know that. They want people virtue-signaling by yelling about a law they haven't even read! Fact-checkers have called out the White House for misstatements. The president absurdly claims this is worse than Jim Crow.
What is going on here? I'll tell you. A Washington power grab. This misplaced outrage is supposed to justify Democrats' new sweeping bill that would take over elections for all 50 states; it would send public funds to political campaigns you disagree with, and make the bipartisan Federal Elections Commission partisan!
This is not about civil rights, or our racial past. It's about rigging elections in the future.

Let's be honest; American Thinker's Patricia McCarthy (the first link before Scott's excerpt) is dead on when she condemns the GOP for just rubber-stamping Biden's Maoist radical appointees. And unfortunately, while I do not have the record in front of me and I do not know how Scott voted, I do not recall him voicing any opposition to vermin like Vanita Gupta, Colin Kahl et al. His overall tenure in the Senate too has been a disappointment in terms of advancing the MAGA agenda or defending President-in-Exile Trump.

But last night, his response was dead on. And for daring to speak truth to (illegitimate) power, he gets all kinds of filthy abuse heaped on him. Well they had to do it since there is no rational, reasonable argument that either bolsters Democrats' claims and positions or refutes Scott's statements. Therefore, slime, demean and blood-libel - loudly. And like every person who is either attacked with fists, frozen water bottles, cement hate-shakes or worse, threats to one's job and livelihood for daring to have an opinion counter to the regime, the sliming of Tim Scott is a warning, not just to blacks who dare think for themselves but to anyone who now challenges the cancer that has overthrown the nation.

Psaki-Psircling back, Biden had to compare January 6th to the Civil War. If he didn't, the persecution now of Rudy Giuliani, the dozens of innocent people who did nothing more than show up at the Capitol "singing songs and carrying signs, mostly saying 'hooray for our side'" would not have a pretext, no matter how patently ludicrous the charge, to be put in figurative and literal crosshairs. With the imminent weaponization of "hate speech" codified as anyone the government deems a threat to "our democracy" - meaning it's power - the potential list of criminals now extends to a minimum of 80 million people.

"Everybody look what's going down..." indeed.

THE THING'S SPEECH

"Whoa! Joe Biden thinks that that relatively mild, wholly unarmed breach of the Capitol was the 'worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War!' How historically ignorant are his speechwriters?" (it's not them; it's the general public that are to stupid or brainwashed to know otherwise - jjs) 
"Worst Attack on Our Democracy." Can Biden Really Be This Dumb?

22 I still suspect that this raid on Giuliani is directly related to Biden's April 15th EO saying that if the government suspects that you talked to a foreigner and interfered in an election then they can seize all of your assets, all of your family's assets, and make it illegal for anyone to do business with you.

And Trump's name will be found on a document in Giuliani's possession, and then he and his family will be next.

The raid was for a couple of reason's, pay back for going after Hunter, the general viciousness of the Deep State and most importantly of all to get privileged communications between Giuliani and Trump.

This is the 2nd Trump lawyer who has had their offices raided.

Which tells me they still have jack squat nothing on Trump.

Trump literally has to be the most above the board and honest businessman ever.

Just think about that, the entirety of the LE/IC apparatus working in overdrive for 6 years to take him out on something, and like a Seinfeld episode they got nothing.

Incredible.

40 "Perpetuating victim-messaging and highlighting meaningless disparities will do nothing to lessen the spread of HIV amongst LGBT Americans."

I see this in all of the family practice magazines I have access to. LGBT advocates writing articles and letters to the editor about how doctors have to be sensitive to the "stigma" of being LGBT.

Well, toots, if you're more worried about "stigma" than a disease that ravages through your immune system that renders it Swiss Cheese, then your narcissism will physically kill you.

Gentle reminder that sexual predators in California can give partners HIV/AIDS without telling the partner about it and there's nothing the new AIDS patient can do about it.

55 "Perpetuating victim-messaging and highlighting meaningless disparities will do nothing to lessen the spread of HIV amongst LGBT Americans."

I don't give a shit (haha) about the spread of HIV among LGBT Americans. It's a predictable virus with a known method of spread. It could've been almost completely eradicated except for a handful of cases a year, and it could've been done in the 90s.

It wasn't because it's a noble, wonderful virus, and an honor for gay people to die from it. It's THEIR virus, haters, and how dare you eradicate it with basic techniques that end deadly viruses.

Instead we have 40K cases every year, year in and year out, since the 90s, by the same people who are demanding two year old kids wear masks and stay locked in their bedrooms as protection against a cold virus.

So no, I don't care.

But those are just the biggies. Then you have smaller things like Dominican communists shooting at US embassy staff in Santo Domingo, resulting in a brief conquest on the DR that most people don't even know happened. That was a much bigger deal than January 6th. Extreme weather is a much bigger threat than January 6th. Hell, just heavy weather is a bigger deal.

Of course she does. And MyKia Bryant's mother believes that her Stabby daughter was simply trying to persuade her friend in the pink jog suit to join MyKia in her pursuit of world peace as MyKia raised the knife over friend's cowering body.

Arbery was a known thief who went into the under-construction home, without permission of the owner or builder, because he was probably the one who had been burglarizing other homes in the area, and he was looking for something to steal. The white guys who spotted him had been trying to catch this burglar. After seeing Arbery in the under-construction house on the security camera, they called the cops and were trying to follow him and keep an eye on him so he couldn't get away before the cops arrived. Arbery saw them following him, and he got pissed and turned back to confront them. He grabbed the gun of one of them, and that's when he got shot.

Arbery wasn't out innocently jogging, and he wasn't targeted for being black. The federal charges are bullshit.

He's a thoughtful guy and you're lucky to have him. I believe Tim deeply thinks about issues before he comments or responds. I wish more people would be that reflective. People forget he spoke out against impeachment and many of the Democrats other excesses. He's sponsored a lot of good legislation and things like OZ's are key to helping us capture more of the voting community. On race and the police he has been second to none. Is he going to be you're frothy mouthed conservative stalwart? No, that's not his style. But in the end he always stands up for what he believe is right. That's honest and good enough for me. I am just sick of people, trolls, idiots arguing: "well, it's terrible the liberals attacked Tim, but.....". That's not a material argument.

167 From reading the commentary on the speech, it seems righties think Biden egregiously lied nearly every time he opened his mouth. I doubt the left sees it that way. Biden's speech is a great lens into the political division in America: I doubt many people cared about his speech, and going in citizens assumed he is either full of shit or a saintly figure.

173 MSNBC house conservative Nicole Wallace had a rebuttal to his rebuttal and in particular his defense of the Georgua voter law.

She was part of the McCain 2008 campaign from Hell along with that fat ignorant piece of shit, Steve Schmidt. The problem was 897 didn't want anyone running his campaign who would intellectually outshine him and, welp, that didn't leave many choices. The best example was that the Mav chose Sarah Palin whom Nicolle quickly began torpedoing. She is as dumb as a doorknob.

182 Fake pandemic. Not a single hospital had to turn anyone away due to covid. Not a single hospital ran out of respirators due to covid. Tens of thousands of respirators were rushed into emergency production because we were told they would be needed and literally tens of thousands were going to die because hospitals did not have adequate supplies of them but they were not needed and sit idle to this day.

We were told hospitals would be overwhelmed in places like NYC, LA and Chicago. Hospital ships were sent, mobile military hospitals were sent and set up and sat unused. After weeks went by without seeing any patients they left. Millions of $$$ wasted.

We had a total of 1316 flu cases reported to the CDC for the 2020-2021 flu season, normally we have 100,000+. Doctors and hospitals were coding everyone who actually had the flu as covid cases to get the extra Federal $$$ that comes with reporting a positive case.

While states and localities can be saved, there is reason to vote GOP there. Natiobally, there is no need to vote GOP. Even a third party might not be worthwhile because the United States is FUBAR and it is unlikely we ever again have a free and fair election.

It's amazing what happens when the government allows people to turn the lights back on in their businesses.

I think that's what irritates me the most with the "Build Back Better" nonsense. Nothing needs "building back." The economy was booming before these same "build back" people forced it to shut down.

243 My third son was born at the height of the pandemic last year in May. No problem checking in, no shortage of doctors or nurses, no panic in the halls, emergency room or anywhere, inside or out. Just lots of masks and extra rules making it harder to visit. And this was the largest hospital in Atlanta area.

My sister in law had an episode in which she fainted a few months ago. She went to the hospital and called my brother. He called me for transportation and to watch the baby while he went in. The plan was for me to sit in the waiting room, because patients could only have one visitor in a 24-hour period.

But the hospital also had a "patients or sole visitors only in the waiting room" rule. So I got to sit in the car with the baby and wait for a phone call about what I should do next.

That is a level of stupidity that approaches the sublime.

My church (the cathedral) is putting an effort to kickstart the Knights of Columbus again in the diocese. Monseigneur read some stats in his homily a couple of weeks ago about how church attendance, which had already cratered from 50 years ago, was being halved by the covids.

There seems to be real fear in the American church that we're approaching French levels of engagement with the church (and donations, I'm sure).

Yep. I know a young man in SC who signed a contract right before all the COVID nonsense struck, and he was telling me this exact same thing last week. They're getting construction on the development going again and - thanks to construction costs and, more importantly, locusts fleeing the city and buying things sight unseen - his particular one has almost doubled in price already.

I told him he should never move in and sell it immediately, and use the original investment to buy a small patch of land to build a house on. He's seriously considering it.

254 While states and localities can be saved, there is reason to vote GOP there. Natiobally, there is no need to vote GOP. Even a third party might not be worthwhile because the United States is FUBAR and it is unlikely we ever again have a free and fair election.

We have 2 things at work here that can't be dismissed.

1. The GOP needs to be reformed, badly. They don't represent us and we all know it. But is there time to chip away and replace them with Constitutional conservatives? I don't believe so.

2. Until our federal elections are free from fraud, and I'm talking massive fraud, it's now all for naught. I will never trust the process until it's gutted and returns to one legal vote per legal person. Can and will that ever happen?

We're in a tough spot and I don't know how to get out of it. As much as I love Marcus (one of my favorite commenters), I just can't get behind voting for these R losers anymore, except on the state level.

The people who were terrified that they were going to catch a cold that they might not ever even know they had and kill thousands of people around them were so scared that they double masked and wore dishwashing gloves while they drove alone in their cars, and guess what? They didn't catch it and they didn't kill thousands of people, all because of the experts guidance and their own caution.

286 I have concluded that Critical Race Theory has become reparations in disguise. The black professors who invented the CRT THEORY - it is still officially called a theory - may not have envisioned it as a form of reparations. Fellow Masrxists have since thermonuclear-weaponized it as such, to achieve what? Helping blacks? No, tearing-down the whites. In other words, Revenge. Or, in their minds, reparations by means other than direct cash to blacks. Of course, if CRT succeeds in destroying white culture and empowering race mongers, cash reparations await at the end of the CRT rainbow.

They wish. The white Dem race mongers are using CRT for their own evil purposes, and see other things at the end of that rainbow; I doubt any of them would be good for blacks under the black one percenters.

So, that's MY theory. Once you see CRT as a means to exact reparations/revenge on whites using BLM and stupid white liberals as the foot soldiers, it all makes sense. My 2 cents worth on a Thursday.

Think bigger. Much bigger.

CRT is merely an imprint of Critical Theory more generally. Critical Theory seeks to bring about the postmodern (that is, neo-communist) utopia through constant critique and subsequent action followed by more critique, the process recycling until we arrive at the destination (the end of history and the new socialist man).

Reparations may be a middle step or that may not happen. It doesn't matter. The actual endpoint of CRT, it's daddy CT and all utopian ideology is the same: slaughter. Industrial-scale mass slaughter of the enemy.

Hewitt went into one of his Foghorn Leghorn spiels of "you've gotta cut spending big, way over what you campaigned on" and you could just about hear Eddie Munster shitting his pants.

Watch places like Slickdeals.net for Lowes gift cards that routinely come up for 10% off (get a $100 card for $90)

Use military discount for the purchase in order to get an additional 10% off. If you don't qualify ask any buddy that's a vet to go with you and you'll buy him a six pack or lunch.

You can save a chunk of money that way.

Most importantly, the government won't do door to door gun confiscation. They'll pass the laws, hammer people found in violation while investigating other crimes, and scare most normies into disposing of guns when inherited from relatives.

sra blaster and I (well mostly her) started looking at that maybe 3 years ago. Took us a while (maybe it took a while for her to convince me) but we are under contract now for 120 acres. We have to wait a bit for appraisal and survey services because there is so much activity in the area. We feel like we are a little bit ahead of the curve now.

My grandfather was a real estate agent, and my mother always said buy land, they aren't making any more of it. If you feel like you should buy property - I will encourage you. Do it. Watch some youtubes titled "7 things to know when buying land" or "here's 4 things I wish I knew before buying land" They are mostly common sense but you know if you haven't bought land before it is different than buying a house.

Some churches were more afraid than others. My denomination didn't do well, but they didn't tell churches they needed to be closed down except for the first couple of weeks, and while we could have been opened earlier we closed down in March and then had outside services starting in May and moved back in in July. Of course, I don't have to deal with hundreds of people or even a hundred which the RCC does..

IMO fast food restaurants are keeping their dining rooms closed because of all the state health department mandates regarding continuous cleaning with disinfectant, six foot spacing for lines, mask mandates that require them to confront customers, and the lack of help.

Good point about it having to be shipped over regardless.

I think single-use would be fine for me, honestly. I haven't gone far enough down the rabbit hole to see what would need to be done before burying half of it, but the exposure to the ground would probably be worse than the seawater.

406 Shipping containers (CONNEX) type are not structurally sound. They're designed to float... for a while. Only the corners are reinforced so they can be stacked.

I looked into getting one for my "undisclosed location" as an underground (buried) vault for storage. There's a lot of work you have to put into making one of those storage containers safe. And rust proof.

That being said, there are outfits that will take one and make it into an off-grid "cabin" that can be trucked or air dropped on your property.
