The Morning Report - 5/3/21 [J.J. Sefton]

Good morning kids. Start of a new week and as is usually the case for a Monday, we're loaded with links so let's dive right into the sewer and unpack it. Certainly, the full frontal assault via the corrupted instrumentalities of government and law enforcement on Rudy Giuliani is indicative of the intimidation and persecution of anyone or anything that has opposed in the past or is perceived as a current threat to the Junta. At the same time, the Armed Militant Wing of the Democrat Party, BLM and Antifa are beating up, setting on fire and threatening death to their enemies, including erstwhile allies such as Ted Wheeler.

On a not unrelated note, the internecine struggle within the Party itself for ultimate control was on full display yesterday as farshimmelt crackpot Commie bull Bernie Sanders, ironically representing the Stalinist/Maoist contingent attacked the merely Trotskyite wing in the form of James Carville for his assertion that the party "can't be more liberal" than Joe Manchin. Skeletor was freaking out about the Woke-ster neo-Cultural Revolutionaries alienating even diehard Democrats and driving them away, if not into the arms of the GOP which couldn't attract flies if it were drowning in an ocean of Maxine Waters' ass-crack sweat, but that's beside the point. Let's face it, Skeletor and his ilk have no problem with the endgame; permanent power and control of the government and the economy. That's been their goal since at least 1913 and perhaps long before then. Their MO has always been via stealth; wrapping themselves in the flag and lying to the American people, and if we're perfectly honest, as history sadly shows us, it's worked. Until now. Or until President in exile Donald Trump's miracle win in 2016.

The problem though is the Democrats have always relied on a vast, discontented underclass, (which their policies created/exacerbated in the first place) sowing economic and especially racial animus while presenting themselves as the saviors of the poor, the non-white and the immigrant (legal or otherwise). In order to do that, it took over 60 years of brainwashing several generations of Americans via the classroom and the boob tube that the country they were born into, and those who support it, are not merely illegitimate but evil incarnate. So now, Gramsci's, Marcuse's and Ayers' chickens have come home to roost. For Carville et al, it's get woke or get out of the way. As for Joe Manchin or Kyrsten Sinema, if you think they don't understand the real meaning behind Derek Chauvin being found guilty or, less subtly, the message sent to Ted Wheeler, think again. The reign of the Clintonistas and their fellow travelers is over. The need to fake sincerity or to "feel your pain" is over. The Maoists are in the ascendency and they won't be faking sincerity because they'll be inflicting the pain on you. Assuming Biden, or more accurately Obama and Valerie Jarrett are the ones pulling the strings, how long before BLM/Antifa get tired of it? Perhaps we are heading for a Night of the Long Knives moment.

It sure seems that way, as Charlie Kirk warns.

Sometimes the most effective way to get what you really want is to tell people that you want the exact opposite. It is a subtle form of manipulation wherein you get the "audience" to hear you say you want one sort of extreme thing; they, in turn, express concern and objection, so you're able to then say, "I hear you. How about if we do this instead?"

That is exactly what is happening when Democrats and BLM leaders tell you that they want to defund the police. As lawlessness and violent crimes continue to escalate across the country, they are hoping that American citizens will speak out and make clear that they need and want police, but of course, they also want to have the imperfections of policing addressed. Once that happens, Squad-types like AOC, Pressley, Tlaib, Omar, and others can stand in front of a microphone and say to the people:

We hear you. That is why today, we are sponsoring legislation that will establish a national police force. This new force will take the place of smaller, ineffective, and poorly trained state and local forces around the country. Every person in every city and state will get the same high-quality, uniform service. All officers will be thoroughly trained in diversity, inclusion, and critical race theory. No longer will you have to fear chaos in your neighborhood. No longer will you have to fear those who are paid to protect you.

With that, they will have accomplished their true objective. They'll have the ability to direct a Gestapo-style law enforcement arm to help them fulfill their quest for complete and total control over every substantive act of American daily life. This is what they are hiding from you when they say, "defund the police."

Power and control. Who will ultimately wield it is another story. Remember that it was Obama and Holder that weaponized local police forces with military surplus gear and then, in the wake of Ferguson, started nationalizing them. Also, I seem to recall during those eight lost and horrible years federal agencies like the EPA and the Ed Dept. suddenly got SWAT teams under their aegises. I get the terrible feeling that there were a lot more guns involved in Fast and Furious and quite a few of them are in storage on this side of the border, just waiting to be accessed. By whom is the question. Looks like the coming shooting civil war will be a three way affair between the Junta, the BLM/Antifa axis and us in the middle firing in both directions.

But I digress...

Before my mind wandered, I wanted to segue from Carville vs Sanders to elections. While both of them go at each other about alienating or not alienating Democrat voters, yet again I have to pimp-slap those in the "we'll get 'em good in '22 and '24" crowd. Take for example the case of New York, both city and state, where people wonder how in the hell Angel of Death Cuomo and for sure Bill DeBolshevik can get elected and re-elected over and over again after destroying that city and state. We can for sure blame the well-documented fecklessness and uselessness of the state's GOP as well as non-Democrat voter apathy; DeBolshevik won his races with record low voter turnouts that IIRC were in the low double-digit percentages. But of course, maybe it was something else entirely that played a much bigger role:

Today, political candidates are blocked from even appearing on the ballot due to the nefarious machinations of political insiders.

This is not a Republican issue or a Democrat issue, but an American issue involving all political parties. It is about democratic participation in our political system. It is how potential candidates do not even reach the ballot box and are thwarted by entrenched political insiders in collusion with Board of Elections executives. Thus, the status quo is maintained. It is the undermining of the foundation of the democratic voting process that we the voters trust, which has been usurped by ten political "commissars" in a room.

The nefarious drama took place, as it always does, at 42 Broadway in Manhattan, in the bleak hearing room of the Board of Elections. In this room, the 31 Republican candidates knew their fate was already determined. This is the factual account of 31 Republican candidates, running for public and party offices in Queens, who were recently thrown off the ballot for meaningless technicalities, thereby denying 130,000 registered Republican voters in Queens County, NY a choice in the upcoming June 22nd Primary Election.

A former commissioner revealed some of the shocking details of the insider protection racket at the top tiers of the Board of Elections and party organizations. According to the former insider, the commissioners, general counsel, the party bosses all collaborate to pre-determine the approved candidates to get on the ballot and who they want to knock off. These private "horse-trading" sessions occur prior to the public commissioners hearings, which are carefully pre-scripted to make sure the insurgent candidates do not have ballot access in their party's Primary Election.

With Republicans like this, who needs Democrats, or an H.R. 1? We're not voting our way out of this.

Who's surprised? Not anyone here, I'd imagine. Not one thing in American politics is free from deep corruption and dishonesty. The above also echoes some Democrat bonehead, whose name I forgot, that announced a few months back that it should be a "committee" of sorts that determines who gets to be a presidential candidate, not the actual voters. Who are, of course, too stupid to know what's good for them. We only deserve to get to vote on the ones they've "vetted" for us. Isn't that nice of them? Rancid all the way down.

32 Just was listening to a podcast on literacy. Over a third of American adults, according to this podcast from UVa, are illiterate or functionally barely literate (can read stop signs but not prescriptions). This is the slice of American society Democrats are so busy expanding: work slaves whose presence only justifies more government spending on teachers unions and social program administrators.


We are up against a terrible triumverate: the evil uniparty Deep Staters, like Liz Cheney and John Brennan and Eric Holder, who spy on Americans and imprison political opponents at will; public employee unions, who exist only to get more money and more public employees (so they can get more money); and the Democrat Party (plus their media Propaganda arm). Add fascist economic relations to that mix, with Big Business, and you have a fully weaponized state acting only for its own interests.

35 I am constantly amazed by the idea that not having 100% (or close to it) of Harvard's student body made up of Asians is "discrimination". Asians are about 4.5% of the US population and have over 25% of the slots at Harvard.
No school in the US admits students totally based on test scores, and it's silly to expect them to do so. Based on the equally silly idea that every school should "reflect" the racial and ethnic make up of America as a whole, Asians are over represented at the Ivies.
Schools look at community involvement, special talents (sports, arts, writing), and yes ability to pay and legacy admissions. If we are concerned about businesses making their own rules, we should note that except for a state portion of Cornell, the Ivies are private schools.
What makes this more irritating is that Asian groups near me also believe that Chinese nationals are being discriminated against and should make up an ever greater percentage of admissions to these job camps.

57 "The COVID Passport: Fascism at Hand"


Vaccination passports won't be required by a business until it is sure it can at least break-even with only passport holders as customers. And it is sure it has the support of TSA or local law enforcement or whatever outfit can be used to enforce a passport requirement. I also believe the nationwide outfits needing customers through the doors (airlines, grocery store, restaurant and motel chains, big box stores) are going to collude and go 'passports required' at the same time.


Once the 'customers we need have passports' line is crossed, life in the USA may become a lot worse for just about everyone.

The Party Civil War will consume a lot of their own. They always do. The key difference between a Party civil war and a general civil war (though they are often coincident) is who does the dying. The Party elites of various factions slaughter each other, but the Party as a whole - as if the civil war weren't even happening - usually maintains command of the street forces slaughtering the populace.

The marauding throngs keep killing the Party's enemies, though the individual Party leaders instructing them and maintaining records and controls may change. The only time that this distinction will turn into bedlam is when the marauders finish their job before the affairs are settled within the Party conflict. That won't happen here. The Party conflict will be settled quickly. The Maoists win.

It's fully disgusting and completely un-American (whatever that means) to have that police state fortress cordoned off from the American people. And the media could care less. Just imagine if that had been Trump. I do know the reason why it's there, however, and I've said it before. These people know they stole the election. They know they're illegitimate. And in their minds, they're protecting themselves from the fallout of an angry population. At this point, it's full-on paranoia because there may be millions angry, but nobody is doing anything about their stolen takeover.

81 We hear you. That is why today, we are sponsoring legislation that will establish a national police force. This new force will take the place of smaller, ineffective, and poorly trained state and local forces around the country. Every person in every city and state will get the same high-quality, uniform service. All officers will be thoroughly trained in diversity, inclusion, and critical race theory. No longer will you have to fear chaos in your neighborhood. No longer will you have to fear those who are paid to protect you.

Why bother? The local PDs in their strongholds (the big cities) are already in pocket and useful. The locals elsewhere will be overrun by the marauders sent out to abduct, slaughter and destroy enemy areas. And when they need a shot in the arm from the central authority, they have the FBI. It doesn't matter that the FBI is corrupt and illegitimate (indeed, that's what makes them so powerful) - once they arrive, they take control and *will* kill any local who gets in the way.

This won't be needed very often. Their confederated urban locals will be able to handle most of the problems that arise and won't often need to bring in the FBI ringers.

Anyway, my wife commented on "what a weirdo that Luntz character is." She didn't know about his obsession with the White House Oval Office and that he had a replica in his own home.

87 The Horde spends a lot of time bitching about "commies", but wants them streaming in to the country and taking 100% of the spots in the top universities. It's laughable. These are not people "yearning for democracy and freedom", these are people handpicked by Xi's regime. But go ahead and advocate for all the great schools to turn over their admissions to the Chinese, because that's who is clamoring that they deserve them. We are planning to educate the people who want to destroy us? We condemn China Mitch, China Joe and outsourcing, but yes let's hand over the reins of education to the people Beijing sends here.
Years ago, when the Asians here were actual "refugees" they didn't go back and forth to China on extended visits as they were concerned that they'd never get out. I heard stories of people who left China because of political persecution...that's no longer the case. Just like the Iranian "students", those immigrating from China are approved by the regime. Hey, but Fang Fang was hawt, let

I agree with you on the latter, though it might happen sooner - maybe after the next midterm. I disagree on the former. I think that the gangster faction (the Clinton crew) ain't gonna win this. The bureaucrats feathering their nests through cavalier corruption will be able to keep doing so under the Maoists, and the leadership in that faction (the Obama/Jarett crew) won't exactly get in the way of their underlings' beak-soaking. If they Maoist leadership ever changes its mind, it'll be too late for the underlings - but the underlings never think ahead.

I don't understand this, CN. I haven't seen any in the Horde arguing that this is acceptable. I *have* seen (and indeed, I have myself taken this position and I think it's right) that the universities in general - the humanities for political reasons and the hard sciences for reasons of corruption and treason - are a lost cause. The front is closed because the war has been lost. The only option for the universities is to defund them by taxing their endowments and removing all federal subsidies (including in the bankruptcy code). Chinese migration needs to be curtailed across the board.

I don't think - and I haven't seen it here, though I am also not on every thread - that any of this acceptable or that it should be cavalierly dismissed. I do think, however, that this front is closed. The war is over. We lost.

It means you're delusional. It used to be an individual achievement, but now it is a team sport. ETS has a lot of issues with security, that are widely published in the UK, but hidden here.

111 This ballot manipulation described above occurs in other states as well. For example, in NJ, the political apparatus of each county party decides which primary candidate to give the "county line" to -- essentially which candidate to list first on the primary ballot. It's been shown over and over that the candidate listed first has a built-in advantage, as many primary voters just pick the first name in the line that they see.

So all of the candidates have to essentially audition in front of the county political bosses and try to "win" the line from them. Generally, this works to the favor of the insider-connected primary candidate over the insurgent.

156 This is not a Republican issue or a Democrat issue, but an American issue involving all political parties. It is about democratic participation in our political system. It is how potential candidates do not even reach the ballot box and are thwarted by entrenched political insiders in collusion with Board of Elections executives. Thus, the status quo is maintained. It is the undermining of the foundation of the democratic voting process that we the voters trust, which has been usurped by ten political "commissars" in a room

157 Posted during the ONT but it bears repeating - During Mass our Priest asked for a show of hands of those whom are willing to get rid of 'social distancing' seating at church. A vast majority raised their hands. He said he'd allow it and reserve a wing of the church for those that still are 'nervous'.

There was much rejoicing and applause - during Mass!

158 It's good to see folks here embracing the "people are too comfortable" line of thought. I believe "comfort" however that's defined by the individual is key. When they become uncomfortable they will look for ways to resolve that situation.

For the whine mom's that may very well be their inability to find boxed wine at a fair price. It may be the urban slime that is relocated into the house next door for "equity's sake." For the average joe it might be the cost and/or prohibition of gasoline or the outlawing of air conditioning to save the planet.

Showed up to mass yesterday to discover that the back 2/3 of the cathedral had been de-social distanced. Monseigneur has hardly worn his neck gaiter for a while, only putting it up when handing out communion, but he didn't even put it up then this week. It was interesting.

Read Biden as Stalin a mean-spirited lackwit with a huge grudge against the smart guys, who was going to stamp everyone out who didn't give him the respect his a-hole ego demands.
He enjoys signing this stuff. and being an angry alzheimer guy, he's probably easy to wind up to get even with whoever provides even minor obstruction, so he signs whatever anti-American legislation they throw in front of him. Cuz it's pro-Joe and Joe is the "new FDR".
So, we get all of the FDR fascism without any of the FDR charm. Same same ala Stalin just slower.

Trump was just the coup de grace, putting match to the kindling the party members already put in place. That kindling built year after years as the voters issues were ignored and the Deep State Uniparty stuck a thumb in their eyes.
By the way, that party is never coming back.

Trump exposed and killed it. He won the election on its putrid corpse. Anyone in Washington who thinks that's coming back (I'm looking at you Kevin McCarthy) should plan their retirement now. By the way- what kind of asshole brings liberal Democrat Frank Luntz the Dunce to advise the NRCC on strategy? Do you really think the party members want the Chamber of Commerce, illegal immigration amnesty guy to set a strategy antithetical to their desires?

For every billion of the USA China buys up, some grifter like Biden/Clinton is getting a million or more through some back door method (Hunter style bagmen, book deals, or other more covert paths). ... And besides the buying in the USA, there is the intellectual theft and influence on our laws and policies.

But my guess is after the DeepState gets their National Police Force ("internal force as powerful and well funded as our military" Barak Obama) ... and other controls, they figure they can then purge the CCP from USA, and give them a seat at the globalist round table (in Brussels?).

I would give the priest the benefit of a doubt. Our pastor wears a mask during communion even though he thinks it is stupid. But, he wears it because some people would not take communion at all if he didn't. We did stop wiping down the communion rail after the CDC finally admitted the truth that you can't CCP Flu from surfaces. Plus, we are about to start dropping masks.

Probably. Until they get "audited" by a group of "professional auditors" who show up with guns on their hips and a steely countenance. Those "auditors" will offer a deal: the doctor gets to live if he discloses all of the doses he faked. He will disclose, and thus delay his own day of reckoning for several months or years.

This is how it works with totalitarianism. All of the dodges and all of the skirting maneuvers work, but only insofar as they are delays. The death squads always come. If you get away with it once, you won't get away with it again (or indefinitely) - even if you're very lucky and careful - because they keep doing things like this. Things like this pay two dividends: increased control/conformity and better dossiers on everyone *and* the ability to identify (and then kill) non-conformists. They always have fresh new ideas of things to do.

They won't. It isn't about you. The Gestapo paying a visit to the doctor to "audit" his records will in all probability have nothing to do with you. Sure, maybe *you* get caught and crack under gentle questioning at the Lubyanka, but it isn't likely. They'll find out by some other means.

It's sort of like the war on drugs, and similar theories apply. They don't usually go after drug users unless it's to find the pusher and run it up the organization (drug charges on their own are pretty rare, and usually a "I'll take what I can get approach" on other crimes).

It's difficult to find every dissident man to man. It's much easier to find the people who enable dissidents and so find lots of individuals. Folks like the doctor are multi-dimensional enablers, and they're the ones who will get visits from the jackboots systematically and when they talk - and they will, for the chance to live another day - that you move up modestly in priority.

226 It reminds me of that story out last week that Bonehead was planning on spending $80 billion to hire more IRS vampires to go after people that have outstanding back taxes. Spend $80 billion to get back $10 billion in back taxes? I have no idea what the actual figure is, but I'd have trouble believing there's actually $80 billion in outstanding taxes to collect that would offset the $80 billion this idiot "president" wants to spend to go get it.

227 I don't know if it's because I walked in right behind an angry black woman without a mask, but when I walked into McDonald's yesterday to pick Dolley up some quick food, no one said a thing about me being maskless.

It has proven to me that people aren't going to bug me, especially right before I was in the Wal-Mart buying mulch, and the manager of the auto section rang me up without saying a thing. I guess too many people are going maskless around here to bother anymore.

228 212 Would love to give the priest the benefit of the doubt. However, the backstory is that these grands are Catholic via their mother and we support them by going to mass with them once a month even as deep water Baptists. The SJW speeches on that Sunday are cringe inducing. Masks during sharing of the Host are to be expected.
-----------------
Took my MIL to a Catholic Church while she was visiting. They had a Priest and Nun from DC do the Mass. The Priest truly believed that there were no Catholics south of the Potomac and made it very clear that he beieved deeply in the Church of Big Gay Al. The nun was clearly a bull dyke. It seems DC is a holding pen for priests and nuns that are unacceptable anywhere else in the country. Man, was that one angry gay Priest. My MIL kept looking at me throughout the sermon. It was a fun experience in a weird sort of way.

She doesn't get it and she never will. She's a communist agitator and always has been. She's just a genteel, western academic communist who thought (as they all think) that *her* brand of communism was going to be gentle. That they would sell it, not impose it. That people would generally follow and comply. That it would be a form of collective governance by all for all with none of tyranny, oppression, mass graves and piles of human corpses this time.

She's a fool at best. That she is now terrified is good - she may survive as a result, and some of her brain-dead fellow travelers might start to question things - but her terror was entirely foreseeable and inevitable, if not for her own sinister yet starry-eyed foolishness.

We had this conversation yesterday. It's as if most people in America never had good personal hygiene- and I think there is an argument for that. Washing your hands, and yes, targeted use of hand sanitizers will prevent the spread of germs. By the way, so will some basic cleaning and general hygienic practices. You don't need the state to mandate that, nor do you need a study. It's demonstrably true those things, refined and practiced over the ages, prevent the spread of germs.

I'm not badmouthing modern medicine in any way here, but I strongly suspect that most - perhaps virtually all - of the increased longevity in the West comes down to three things: sanitation, nutrition and trauma care. Only one of those things is medical. Sanitation is the big one. Clean water and centralizing refuse and cordoning it off from most people (landfills and dumps) is a huge deal for human health.

Places with good sanitation and personal hygiene don't get plagues. Places with poor sanitation - like India, for example, in the news recently - do.

Same here where I am (TN). The city next door has a mask mandate. My county doesn't. The other county my town occupies (it's split) has some weird mandates left, but they're unenforced. They're also unenforced in the city down the way.

All of the corporate stores and a lot of the smaller shops have signs on the door about masks, but I have only once been compelled by the shop owner to don one (outside of Costco, who are tyrants about it). No one seems to care here. When I go into a store, the proportion of antisocial unmasked varies. In hardware stores, I'm in the majority. In places like supermarkets and restaurants, I'm in a significant minority. In places like home goods stores (Karen's Domain), I am in a tiny minority.

And that's fine overall. If you want to mask up, mask up.

353 "But I live in a DC suburb and I have a septic tank
so it isn't all that primitive. And the South in general is not so hot
on natural gas. My mother lives 3 miles from Columbia Metropolitan
Airport (that's the capital city of SC) and natural gas is not available
there.



So, yes, nice to have. But if you want to be independent of the grid, not having a grid is a good place to start!

Yeah I am being picky. But I've lived with septic. Never again. Love me some natural gas, though. I hate cooking on electric and power my back up generator with natural gas.

Which tells you how powerful they are. One thing that really astounded even a cynic like me was when it came out during the Trump administration just how cheaply so many people were bought. When I learned that - if I had the connections, of course - *I* could afford to buy some mid-level guys or the cheaper high-level guys, it was really astonishing.

But there are a lot of them. There aren't a lot of people on the SCOTUS bench. Supply and demand, I suppose.

This might be true now. You'd have to study it. But demographically, white people tend to be richer and more suburban than black people. Richer and more suburban people tend to drive cars more than walk or ride bikes. If you're enclosed in a car, cicada impacts to your person will be minimized.

That does not surprise me. White people who are not antifa or BLM loons don't carry molotov cocktails or cement "milkshakes" or other weapons in their backpacks. They carry books or lunch or sweaters.

363 "it came out during the Trump administration just how cheaply so many people were bought"


some old study on doctors being limited on rewards for prescribing certain (expensive) drugs found that even something small like a free meal (which I guess was within the legal limit) still influenced the process.

It is like the moral compass goes haywire, and any bribe is like a big magnet next to the compass, all thought processes get bent toward the reward.

364 Charlie Kirk stopped short of identifying the real goal of "defund the police."

It's not to establish a federal police force, although that's a stop along the way.

The real goal is to abolish federalism.

What good is a federal police force when local laws differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction?

365 It is a subtle form of manipulation wherein you get the "audience" to
hear you say you want one sort of extreme thing; they, in turn, express
concern and objection, so you're able to then say, "I hear you. How
about if we do this instead?"

370 and I must not be smart enough to see how systemic cheating turns the SAT and ACT into "team sports" so we should ban them Asians from the ivies.

Tighten test security, randomize it, abolish it whatever.

The removal of racial preferences is a good, and the use of them to stop Asians today will have them used against whites by sunset.

Posted by: sven at May 03, 2021 09:44 AM (Lzpvj)

371 Asians overrunning the ivies is the tip of the iceberg.
They get jobs in major corporations/institutions, steal intellectual property or spy on behalf of the CP. Then they sue the United States when they get caught.

That's why.

376 Just reading through some of the articles, the abuses by OUR goverment and you wonder to what lengths the STASI in the US will go wearing the skin of propriety and legality. Warrant to take all electronics from Giuliani, but don't want the Biden hard drives? Which judge signed THAT warrant? Who authorized the violation of his attorney-client priveledge with President Trump by accessing his iCloud account in 2019 (William Barr?)? This is fucking ridiculous, and with the way the "Just Us" department and FIB are going after folks for merely being present at the January 6th rally, while at the same time ignoring all the 800-lb democratic gorillas in the room (Hillary, Hunter, Joe, Kerry, and so forth) plus their blatant creation of false narratives to go after political enemies indicates just how far down the path to autocracy we've gone; we now have the trappings of a Constitutional Republic, but we lack the substance.
Sorry for the long rant. Maybe I'll get a knock on my door later for posting it.

377 Excellent post.

To me... The country is full of statist c.ntz... Both Right and Left....

Neither of whom....give a damn about freedom...sp long as they can tax you and kill you and be the ones in charge of government weapons.

Forget about anyone never having consented to any government ot a constitution that was illegally placed.

All facts.

379 "Defund the Police is a Trojan Horse"

No, it's a "Stalking horse" -- something put out to knowing it will be loudly rejected, so they can be "reasonable" and come to a "compromise", namely the "National Police force".
