The Morning Report - 5/26/21

Americangulag.jpg

Good morning kids. I know it's been done to death but anyway, congratulations to George Floyd who's now been drug-free for one year. I have faith that he won't fall off the wagon. Ever. Hat-tip to Moron Robbie for that gem (sorry if I'm misattributing but his was the first time I saw it). As per usual these days, we are under such constant bombardment with outrages from all sides that it's difficult to stop and focus in on just one.

But the waste-of-life career criminal formerly known as George Floyd - whose moldering corpse is soon to be dug up and made the centerpiece of a CHAZ-merican Lenin's tomb created from the Jefferson Memorial once all traces of our third president have been jackhammered from the granite - is certainly emblematic of the upside down madhouse in which we are now imprisoned. "Just as every cop is a criminal, and all the sinners saints" is only supposed to be a Rolling Stones lyric, not a blueprint for running society, such as it is.

Literal terrorists burned, looted and murdered their way across several dozen American cities because Floyd died from an overdose of drugs he was trying to stash while resisting arrest for passing a queer Jackson at a convenience store. Yes, he and they were the "freedom fighters." Meanwhile, dozens of folks are rotting in jail after being blood-libeled as "insurrectionists" for committing the crime of showing up at the Capitol last January 6th. Julie Kelly has been on this story and is not letting it rest.

The government, according to Barnett, opened up a shuttered jail facility specifically to house January 6 detainees. The accused are in restrictive housing, ostensibly to protect them from the jail system's general population -- but the conditions are anything but special...

..."First off, all the cells are contaminated with black mold, even the sink we are supposed to drink out of," Barnett said. "The guards gave us some kind of cleaner but it didn't really work." The cells are roughly 70 square feet with a concrete slab for a bed, a toilet, and a sink...

...Detainees are held in solitary confinement conditions for 23 hours a day. Breakfast, Barnett said, arrives at 3:30 in the morning and is inedible "slop." Dinner usually consists of bologna...

...The guards, Barnett said, go out of their way to make life harder for the detainees. "It is purposeful and deliberate collusion, to make every facet of your existence miserable," Barnett said. This includes instances of physical abuse; guards slammed Barnett's face into the concrete floor at one point. After confronting the guards for not following prison rules -- Barnett read the Department of Corrections inmate handbook when he arrived -- and accusing one guard of sexual harassment, Barnett was placed in the D.C. prison's general population as punishment...

...I asked Barnett what he would like to tell the American people about what's happening. "Very simple, pray for the guys who are still in there," he said. "They're not working and have a family to support. Help pay their bills."

Barnett and his lawyers will soon launch a website where people can donate and learn more about his experiences and follow his trial. (GoFundMe, his lawyer said, won't permit accounts to help raise money for January 6 defendants.)

"Freedom is not free," Barnett said.

Unfortunately for dozens of political prisoners held hostage by their own government, freedom appears to be a long way off.

Read the whole thing. It'll make you sick. Yesterday, I had a story about the conditions described in a Chi-Com concentration camp. While what is happening to our own political prisoners is not as bad - yet - the fact that this is happening in the first place should raise deafening alarm bells. I don't know about you, but my blood is boiling. If the officially sanctioned BLaM-tifa goon squads don't get you in the streets for being white, Jewish, Christian or merely not deemed to be raising your fist with enough zeal, a neo-Stasi/Gestapo is going to use the power of an illegitimate state to crush you merely for raising your voice to say "I protest."

There's a number of other hot items in the links, including Fauci now being completely exposed as a liar and a colluder with the Chi-Coms, quite probably helping them create the virus and maybe even ones that really will be on the order of the Andromeda Strain instead of this farce that strains the credibility of the government and media, and the Biden Junta now trying to shut down the probe into the Wuhan lab leak.

But this crap, the degeneration of the former United States into some third world, totalitarian socialist junta is priority one.

NOTE: The opinions expressed in some links may or may not reflect my own. I include them because of their relevance to the discussion of a particular issue.

We're being torn to shreds by an illegitimate government, who stole power right from the hands of The People (Biden did not win). And we just take punch after punch after punch. I'm aghast at everything. I truly feel hopeless.

Ugh, ain't that the truth. My company's queen of HR (at least at this place - unlike my old company - she isn't called the "Chief People Office") sent a lengthy, wordy missive yesterday for Saint Floyd Day that was full of sound and fury.

Her letter called out the great work of the "Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging" group - I've never seen "belonging" tacked on to it before - and how heartwarming it was that Chauvin got convicted. We still, of course, are all awful and there is much work left to be done.

3-4 years. We still have a fair number of old-fashioned retrograde soldiers and junior officers. They're going to be oppressed, marginalized and forced into hiding in place, but they're there. A few more recruitment cycles, though - combined with time for people to cycle out - will ensure adequate concentrations of ideological warriors for domestic duties that offer little threat externally.

Definitely. You got one of the reasons: Fauci is in the ruling class instead of the subordinate class. Beyond that, though, there is another factor. Lying to Congress doesn't matter. People lie to Congress all the time. Recently, no one has lied as egregiously as Big Tech executives, especially Zuckerberg and Dorsey. And what happens to them? Nothing. Even hypothetical Republicans don't get pinched for lying to Congress.

It appears that the official stance of the Federal government and of Congress itself is, "Congress is there to be lied to."

The young man is from Racine WI, and there is a dispute over whether he can be charged with supplying a firearm to an out-of-state minor. Except WI law says that 16 and 17 year olds may possess a rifle. They are trying to say this was a strawman purchase. Another thing I did not know is that Kyle was a lifeguard here in Kenosha, so he does have ties here.

Catholic Priest Who Held Masses In Defiance of Chinese COVID Restrictions Asked To Step Down

___________

For a priest, getting on the wrong side of your bishop is not a good career move. Having said that, I don't know what Fr. Altman is saying that's wrong. It's his bishop who should be saying these things and taking the consequences from the civil authorities cheerfully. But that's what happens when you have managers instead of martyrs.

87 The battle parents face in Loudon County (Va) to keep racism from infecting their kids public schools has taken a very bad turn. Now, the county prosecutor (elected by less than 2 per cant margin after George Soros funded a 7-1 spending advantage) is getting involved in the battle, and teachers are apparently profiling children, spouses and employers of those against the racial agenda.


Given that Democrats are already keeping political prisoners in solitary confinement nearby, these parents are brave as heck. Thank you, Loudon County parents.

105 So I listened to most of the Republican Gubernatorial Debate on 101.5. Jack Ciaterelli is a very polished. He should be. He's been in politics since the 90's or before. He gives the right answers, but he's a RINO and he can dance around and say he always supported Trump's policies, but in 2016 he called Trump a charlatan who was unfit for the Presidency. He sounds better than Singh too because he a lower voice register. It would have been helpful to see them both rather than just hear them, but, as I understand it NJN said Singh had to get a vaccine in order for there to be a live debate and Singh said no

I think Singh is probably about 12-15 younger than Ciaterelli so he sounds more energetic. I also give him credit for being against abortion even in cases of rape or incest, because that line is now going to be used against him till the primary end, but he stood up for his convictions.

I think they both had some good ideas, but I know the big money is behind Ciaterelli and I cannot like politicians who hang around forever.

The young man is from Racine WI, and there is a dispute over whether he can be charged with supplying a firearm to an out-of-state minor. Except WI law says that 16 and 17 year olds may possess a rifle. They are trying to say this was a strawman purchase. Another thing I did not know is that Kyle was a lifeguard here in Kenosha, so he does have ties here.

Nah. This is the IRS. They're far too serious. The woke crap will be during the final confiscatory phase. If they go after retirement savings - which they might not, since they'd be unable to convert them to cash at more than a few cents on the dollar - it will be in the name of "security." They will do so to put retirement savings under federal control to "protect" you from identity thieves, fiduciary non-compliance and of course the "vagaries of the capital markets."

The fact that our federal government is propping him up as some kind of religious deity shows that we need a whole new class of leaders in Washington.

Early in Obama's 1st term there was exploration into the idea of the government creating a giant pool (confiscation) and "managing" all 401ks because it isn't "fair" that some people had 401ks, and others don't, and that some 401ks earn more than others. The government just wants to make sure your 401k is equal or some sh#t. He implemented the first step, a Universal 401k for people whose jobs dont offer one but didn't take it further.

Pretty sure you have to take guns before you take 401ks.

Nah. This is the IRS. They're far too serious. The woke crap will be during the final confiscatory phase. If they go after retirement savings - which they might not, since they'd be unable to convert them to cash at more than a few cents on the dollar - it will be in the name of "security." They will do so to put retirement savings under federal control to "protect" you from identity thieves, fiduciary non-compliance and of course the "vagaries of the capital markets."

I'll take the other side. They probably will. More to the point, they'll pay it happily.

Why? Money (ironically) and power. The mega-industrialists will give up a quarter or a third without caring because the sums they own are so vast that they can afford it, and the resulting situation will further concentrate commerce in their hands. They'll make it back and make it back quickly as people decreasingly have any choice about those with whom they do business. That concentration also increases their power.

What's a few billion in new taxes and expropriation when your friends are doing the expropriating and changing things up to make sure you're more powerful and more rich than you were before anyway? That's not a tax, that's an investment.

Hey, thanks for circling back on this one. That is not what I meant to imply at all and I am sorry if you took it that way.

It is a fact that the problems with COVID-19 did first manifest in a serious way in China, and China was instrumental in those early days of identification and notification. They did yeoman's work on bringing the problem to the attention of global public health authorities and did a lot of the heavy lifting on research. We merely want to encourage our friends in China to be open with their findings as to the true origins of the virus that causes COVID-19.

225 We know Fauci didn't want to promote therapeutics when COVID hit, but this looooong piece also mentions the senators (Willard included) who immediately left the senate committee hearing where a stellar physician researcher and his cohorts were excited to do just that.

This piece details the absolute frustration of brilliant doctors who couldn't fathom why no one would listen to them.

They're fools. Most of the state pension funds are unsalvageable. They're so deeply underwater that there isn't enough money to save them. CALPERS alone can't be saved, and we haven't even gotten to other heavy hitters like Illinois.

I'm not saying that they won't *try* to save those systems by looting everything in sight, but I am saying that such efforts will fail after impoverishing everyone.

I used to get into arguments with my FiL all the time about pensions. Sure, it's a great gig if you can get it, but it's IMPOSSIBLE to maintain. There was one guy he knew that was a civilian contractor in Iraq. When it was all said and done, he was getting over $7k a MONTH in 'retirement,' not including SS. "That's just one guy. How is that even sustainable?"

He would always look at me, flabbergasted as to why I didn't support that man and show my jealousy because it wasn't me.

Hollywood and the Leftists that control the news narrative are the ones responsible for pushing this genital and body mutilation trend. This is a mental disorder. It's pure propaganda and parents need to rise up against it before it's too late. They need to start warning their kids that this is wrong and indoctrination.

It's all about the body count, anything to hurt Trump's chances at reelection. There is on way over 500,000 people died from covid. I doubt there were 150,000 deaths caused by the china flu. Remember the cdc started messing around with the definition of what constitutes a case in May of 2020 and started fudging the numbers and the rest is history. They intentionally put the Country in a panic and it was not done for noble purposes.

Of course she is. She wants to make sure she still gets invited to the good parties after we primary her ass again. Sorry, Lisa, not even Bitch McCockHole and your other DC Swamp frenz helicoptering in cash is gonna save you this time. Murky is Mitt Romney with a natural vag rather than a tucked-in "trap" job.

> the other Arabs didn't intervene. Hell, they didn't even say anything.

Hey, Hamas: maybe it wasn't such a good idea to start sucking Iranian dick after all. I mean, Arabs and Persians have only hated each other's guts for 3,000 years. What could possibly go wrong?

Someone needs to buy copies of Dale Carnegie's book for the "Palestinians", because they sure do suck at winning friends and influencing people.

The numbers are bullshit regardless, but if you look at the CDC they report roughly 250k with COVID and pneumonia, which to me would be the true indicator of COVID deaths over all.

But as I said, I never trusted anything coming out of the CDC or the medical and scientific community regarding the Plandemic.

304 Bloomberg News reports as breaking news that Amazon is buying MGM Studios for $8.45-billion. ...

That's interesting. Disney shelled out half that for Lucasfilm and in exchange they got two valuable franchises: Star Wars and Indiana Jones. The rest is a rounding error and doesn't really matter, those two things are what Disney was buying.

MGM is a bit more robust than Lucasfilm, but their big - really big - cash cow is the James Bond franchise, which is at its modern nadir. There's also a decent back catalogue of other stuff including the somewhat-valuable Rocky franchise and a bunch of stuff that can be considered classics. The problem, though, is that many of the classics aren't Woke and so can't be distributed anymore without wrecking them. Amazon also has a very shitty in-house development and production teams (Amazon Originals usually suck), and MGM is at least competent. But I don't get the pricetag.

Shelling out close to $10 billion for MGM really strikes me as a visceral example of just how much funny money is out there - and how little value that money has to the connected titans.

309 Go long on palm sized smooth stones.And leather slings, too. They increase range and release more kinetic energy.Two things: First, the GOPe has now been revealed to be in on the "elite's" overthrow of our government. They killed the Tea Party Movement back then for the same reasons they refuse to oppose the Dems today. We have to go around them (or through them, I'm not picky) and start demanding they support American values and the Constitution which is based upon them. Put so much pressure on them they'd be happy to resign.
Second, we need a conservative political sugar daddy, like a mirror___ G. Soros. We may have found one in the personage of the Golden Scalpweasel. Where is all the money that we're supposed to have to support our view of our country? Why can't we have somebody who's dedicated to doing the things Teh Anti-Christ does like spend a lot of money backing Constitutionalist candidates nationwide?Naturally, when the coming civil war starts, all this won't matter very much for a while. But it's something to remember after the rubble stops bouncing and progressivism is purged from our society.

There's a dark magic to the spam trap. I get caught about once per day. There are three big things I have found. First is overall length (but that's limited now, and less of an issue). The second is repeated words and phrases, especially acronyms. When I get trapped by the spam filter, I rework it to remove some repeated words and plug in synonyms. The third is line breaks - too many and you get kicked back.

Then there are specific words and phrases that will *always* trigger it - including the word that comes after "trail" in the Portland basketball team. And sometimes it trips anyway, in which case I usually consolidate paragraphs or shorten some part of the post until it gets through.

Did see a youth group, some kind of church group I think, at a playground just off the trail, and 3 or 4 of the tykes were muzzled, out of 20-25. None of the adults or other children..

The GOP is officially irrelevant. Their money will dry up as donors and lobbyists realize they're not getting a good return on their investments. MTG can mouth off all she wants. It won't change the trajectory of the party.

McCarthy has elevated some of the worst, most divisive, and unpopular
voices in the GOP to leadership and then defended them against the
justified wrath of his own voters.


All this is true. What's worse is McCarthy not standing up for liberty and the rights of January 6 political prisoners, but these accusations ought to be enough to take him out of leadership. And, lets not forget his unethical sweetheart deal with Demofascist roomie, Luntz.

382 Hey TJM, if you're still around I have a question. Does a normal remaster and new transfer of a movie (as opposed to something special like Criterion) justify 4k UHD Blu-ray? I only have a VHS copy of one of my favorite movies (Gattaca) and I went to look for a Blu-ray of it and there's a UHD release pending that I can pre-order. If I do that, I will also have to get a UHD BD player. I am willing to do that in principle, but I don't know if it's actually worth it.

Bringing spurious, political criminal charges against a former president sets a horrible precedent. Not that this is something the GOPe is temperamentally willing to do, but still, the Trump administration didn't "lock her up" likely at least in part due to the precedent it would set. If they actually go after Trump, they're opening Pandora's box, but maybe they don't care.

===========

4K UHD is great, but you need a big screen to take advantage of it. Gattaca itself is going to be worth it simply because the Blu-ray is out of print, so the UHD, that comes with the Blu-ray, is the best way to go.

4K is a finicky beast. Gattaca is a great film for the format because of how it was filmed, it doesn't use much in terms of early CGI, and, from what I've read, it just looks great. 4K works best on older stuff, ironically. The stuff made on film. My Fair Lady just came out, and it's apparently an absolute revelation. I wouldn't recommend 4K to everyone, but if you've got the 4K TV, and it's at least 60", yeah, probably.

I've got the TV set. And yes, Gattaca is absolutely beautiful visually and is in my opinion a real work of art, which is the only reason I'm considering spending what amounts to hundreds of dollars to see it better. And yeah - new transfers on good equipment with an artist at the controls really brings out the original material. If the original material wasn't up to snuff, the high-tech reprocessing won't help. You can't turn hamburger into steak, but that one was steak was to begin with. I doubt that the Star Wars prequels would be even remotely improved by 4k, for example, since everything looks like a Playstation cut scene anyway. It was hamburger from the start.

Thanks. I'll strongly consider it.

==========

They're not, and that has to do with how they were filmed. They were filmed digitally, so you'd think that all of the information would be easy to replicate at 4K, but they were filmed naturally at 2K. That 2K was also weird in that each pixel in each grouping of pixels didn't pick up color. It ends up translating poorly to the larger format. Same thing with most CGI from before about 2010. Those shots were usually captured on a larger format (like 70mm), but finished at 2K. Add in the lower resolutions and general quality of CGI, and it just doesn't look good, in fact actively worse, at 4K.

434 Six affidavits now, we had four, now its six. Six affidavits of veteran election officials are alleging that up to 30,000 of these 147 [thousand] ballots are fake, said Fredericks. Somebody printed them up on a machine and ran them through the vote counting machines. Theyre not real. Theyre not attached to anybody.
Another revelation was that the ballots were unfolded and printed on a different paper than the regular absentee ballots, according to Fredericks.

437 Funny how all the masks I can find seem to say a) Made in China and b) not suitable for viral containment.
Similarly, all the vinyl/whatever gloves I can find say a) Made in China and b) NOT for medical use!

All those "N95" masks I see are made in China. Who's to say they don't come pre-loaded with WuFlu virons? That might explain why most of the people with "cases" were mask wearers.

438 Upthread. Putin is still Putin. A communist but at least a straight shooter. The Bidet is a commie too. The similarity ends there.

440 but finished at 2K. Add in the lower resolutions and general quality of CGI, and it just doesn't look good, in fact actively worse, at 4K.

Yup. There's a reason 4k rose to prominence and 2k didn't, and that reason is math (data volume to a lesser extent). 2k requires vast amounts of reprocessing that 4k doesn't. As a straight quadrupling of standard HD (1920x1080) resolution, upconversion is *very* easy for processors to do since you can double in both dimensions. You can't do that in 2k, and the math is extremely difficult and it ends up not looking anything like as good. 2k was a dead end because it is essentially incompatible with prior standards without a lot of work, and was only really useful as an intermediary for superimposing onto film - but that makes transfers really difficult, to the point that they're basically not worth doing.

441 Oh, I dunno. I could believe Asad won an election fairly. He's a monster and an autocrat but he may well be better than a theocrat like Iran or an outright terror warlord like Hamas.

He is the least-worse choice for the Christian and Druze minorities in Syria.

442 Report: Dems considering whether AOC should ... seek a restraining order against Marjorie Taylor Greene

Seriously, has AOC ever read the Constitution.Under the Speech and Debate Clause, a restraining order is unenforceable.

445 federal prisoners being treated worse than what they would have encountered in the Soviet Gulags isn't anything new. Read up on the federal bureau of prisons CMUs (1 in Terre Haute, IN 1 in Marion, Ill) they've been keep politically inconvenient prisoners there for years, American citizen prisoners...
