The Morning Report - 9/6/21

weurgeashlibab.jpg

Good morning, kids. Labor Day and the start of a new week and also erev Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year 5782 which begins at sundown tonight. So, l'shona tovah, a good and joyous new year and I hope you all are inscribed in the Book of Life. From what embarassingly little I do remember from Hebrew school regarding the High Holidays, one of its most important prayers encourages us that penitence, prayer and good deeds on your part will ameliorate G-d's judgement. What the Almighty has in store for the world is another story and from the looks of things, the situation is very much in doubt.

Buried in the links is a story that, given everything else that's going on would, no doubt otherwise be overlooked. A military coup ousted the president of the tiny West African nation of Guinea. Considering the titles of its leaders over the past several decades are akin to "President for Life for This Week" the story is not exactly surprising. But the reaction from the White House is what jumped out at me:

The Biden [junta] issued a statement Sunday declaring "violence" and "extra-constitutional measures" would only erode the country's future prospects.

"These actions could limit the ability of the United States and Guinea's other international partners to support the country as it navigates a path toward national unity and a brighter future for the Guinean people," said State Department spokesman Ned Price.

"We urge all parties to forgo violence and any efforts not supported by the Constitution and stand by the rule of law. We reiterate our encouragement of a process of national dialogue to address concerns sustainably and transparently to enable a peaceful and democratic way forward for Guinea to realize its full potential," he added.

I LOL'd for a second or two until I felt the bile and stomach acid move up my gullet and my blood pressure spike.

"Violence" and "extra-constitutional measures" would only erode the country's future prospects.

"We urge all parties to forgo violence and any efforts not supported by the Constitution and stand by the rule of law. We reiterate our encouragement of a process of national dialogue to address concerns sustainably and transparently to enable a peaceful and democratic way forward for Guinea to realize its full potential."

This from an illegitimate junta that used our law enforcement and intelligence agencies to try and sabotage the 2016 election, trump up three separate phony impeachment cases, commit acts of insubordination and mutiny in not faithfully executing a duly elected commander-in-chief's orders, shred the Constitution in the name of a dubious public health crisis that resulted in the rigging and theft of the 2020 election, stage a Reichstag Fire incident on January 6th resulting in the imprisonment of innocent civilians and purging of the military of any potential resistance, and now the attempt to force citizens under threat of de facto internal exile if they refuse to take a vaccine that is at best unnecessary and at worst potentially poisonous. And that's just for starters.

After all that, how do these people have the unmitigated chutzpocritical temerity to tout "national dialogue" when mission number one for them is to wipe out any and all voices of opposition, increasingly "by any means necessary?" Guinea for sure is a basket case. And sadly, we are well on our way to becoming Guineas. What with lockdowns, masking and now forcible vaccinations, it's more like guinea pigs.

Speaking of which, here's another little story that caught my eye this morning that for sure would be lost in the sauce, yet does have cromulence to the Afghan disaster:

Video captures the moment a firebug set aflame a ticket booth at an Italian American festival in Brooklyn last month -- and nearly torched himself in the process.

Adnan Ali Hussein, 28, can be seen at the ticket booth for the 18th annual Feast of Santa Rosalia in Bensonhurst on Aug. 24, according to the FDNY, which released footage of the incident Sunday.

Hussein first applies an "ignitable liquid" to the booth and then pulls an object out of his pocket and lights the booth on fire, officials said. Investigators believe he used a lighter, officials said.

The suspect can be seen on the video then jumping back in surprise when the flames nearly overtake him.

Hussein was arrested Sept. 2 and was charged with arson in the third degree, reckless endangerment and criminal mischief, officials said.

"Arson is not only a serious crime but also an extremely reckless act that can have devastating effects on the entire community," Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said in a statement. "Our Fire Marshals quickly apprehended this individual before he caused any further damage or harm to New Yorkers."

Does anything in that article jump out at you? The festival is the Feast of Santa Rosalia in the heavily Italian and Catholic Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. The man is identified as one Adnan Ali Hussein, who I'm guessing is neither Italian nor Catholic. Of course if I dare put 2 and 2 together and I do not get the Common Corpse Ibram X. Krement answer of 5 by pointing out that Mr. Hussein is probably not Catholic, Protestant, Mennonite, Bhuddist, Animist, Shinto or Jewish but that other religion that is not to be mentioned except as one of "peace", then I will be labeled a hate-monger. Good thing that the NYPD, NYFD and the NY Post didn't do that either, heaven forfend.

Maybe Mr. Hussein was angry because his bracciole was cold. Or because global warming melted his Italian ices. Or because of the Texas abortion law. Then again, he's probably a white supremacist MAGA insurrectionist. Somebody get Mark Potok from SPLC on the blower to clarify this for us. All seriousness aside, while planeloads of American citizens are being prevented from leaving Afghanistan by people who have no relation whatsoever to this Mr. Hussein, the Biden junta is hell bent on bringing thousands of Afghanis here instead -- unvaccinated, unvetted and soon to be unleashed in a Bensonhurst near you.

5 Milley, Austin, Blinken, et al do not need to resign, they need to be prosecuted. The Obama 3.0 under the direction of these men just pulled off another massive giveaway to Iran, Taliban, Al Qaeda and any one they care to share it with. The weaponry left behind is now in the hands of terrorist regimes. And I scoff at the idea that this was incompetence. Too many things were "overlooked" to be sloppy, hurried or inept. Plus Milley and Austin went before Congress to announce the abandonment of Bagram in June.

Sadly, I do not trust our DOJ or what's left in our military to prosecute traitors or those who would destroy Western Civ in order to achieve skittle farting unicorns at the expense of the people they pretend to serve. Their oaths of office are a sham.

10 7 Biden gave them more hostages, and yes, we negotiate with terrorists. This mess cannot be attributed to any sort of carelessness. This was created to increase Islamist power, at the behest of Kalorama and with the intent of hiding the crimes of many politicians and billionaires. It all comes down to money and Obama.

29 Thad McCotter is of course correct in theory. Sadly the Biden/Obama 3.0 regime is not all that concerned with legitimacy and the consent of the governed. Kalorama was wise and crafty enough to realize that "our side" would sell out the nation for cheap labor and some graft and took full advantage of this back in the 2020 selection and installation procedure. Now "our side" is stuck with a choice: defend the nation and admit their complicity, or let things spin out of control and protect themselves as best they can. They will choose the latter alternative and hope to protect their sorry asses and money.

Both sides are in on this mess, and that is why the GOPe response is so tepid and inept. "Trust the plan".

34 We live in a time where about half the population thinks it is possible to guarantee outcomes via political fiat. Many politicians believe this as do most liberals. There is not much evidence in support of locking up well people to prevent the spread of COVID, but it is now the go-to intervention for entire countries. This is the tyranny of the feminine, a belief that everyone must be forced to agree to an idea, and that idea cannot be challenged.

37 Popped down to little place in Texas called Goliad yesterday. In late March in 1836 a group of Texans had the misfortune to surrender to a Mexican army and were then executed, piled up and burned in one grave - 350 souls. This followed by only a few weeks the massacre at the Alamo. The lesson is never surrender, the end is the same, it is how you meet it that matters.

They continue to black out news of the continuing horror show unfolding in Astan. They continue to lie and black out any news in any way that harms this idiot imbecile fraudster in the WH or his wretched, demonic party. These are major, major stories. And they're blocking this news from the American people. Rush always, always said to never expect them to change their ways, never expect them to find their integrity and true purpose as reporters.

100 The only person who will forget about Afghanistan is Biden. But that's only because he also can't remember who put on his socks.

The media may forget about it, but nobody who served, their families, the families of people left behind and anyone connected to it will. It's going to get worse. They are already randomly killing and torturing people. It's now a nexus of major terrorist organizations that are planning against us- and we don't have any assets on the ground. We are back to the pre September 11th days, only they have a better sanctuary and are better armed, thanks to Biden. This doesn't end well, no matter how much they want to hide it.

As a September 11th survivor I can only say this is the worst possible outcome for our country. We are back to the days before that day. We have no eyes and ears inside what is now one of the most lethal hotbeds of terrorism, with no good way to get the bad guys (especially with our citizens in country) and they are also now very well armed. It's a knock down drag out battle of attrition in the Panshir Valley, one of the last resistance strongholds, and this administration won't help them. They are in fact talking about how they can work with the Taliban, which no serious person believes is the least bit plausible. So he's going to get plenty of Islamic Terrorism, thanks to his own ridiculous, incompetent actions.

139 They've destroyed the public health system by politicizing it. That system largely ran on trust. Now very few people trust them. They are still doing it by trying to rush booster shots. When you see good people like those who resigned at the FDA you know this isn't "insane". It's legitimate and truthful. It's also why they don't want to tell the truth, censor everyone who doesn't drink the Kool-Aid, have stifled scientific debate and want to mandate vaccines every chance they get. Any person with a pulse would question that. They are being proven right and truthful on the vaccine efficacy, ill effects, vaccines for children and a lot more. Yet, they keep lying.

I am not anti vaccine, I am anti mendacity. If the vaccine fits your demo and health situation, get it. Nobody wants the Wuhan flu. If you know someone who had it, it can be horrible. I have unvaccinated family members who had it and said they have never been that sick. They were not hospitalized, but it was awful. However now they have the natural antibodies. That is not the route you want to go if immuno compromised or you have other health issues.

172 Forbidden yet highly demonstrable truths.

Covid "cases" aren't a public health threat.
Highly-spun PCR tests aren't even Covid cases.
Deaths "with Covid" (highly-spun PCR case positives) have little correlation with death due to Covid.
Natural immunity is more efficacious than vaccine immunity and more durable.
Children without huge comorbidities are at statistically zero risk of serious illness from Covid.
Any "vulnerable" person has had full opportunity to become vaccinated, and therefore protected from serious complications of Covid.
Asymptomatic spread of Covid is rare.
Outdoor exposure to Covid is without significant risk.
Current therapeutics are highly efficacious to prevent serious complications of Covid.
Vaccine hesitancy is greatest among urban minorities.

The Washington Post observed how brutal the French were in tearing down all that they thought were their contributions to Guinea: "In reaction, and as a warning to other French-speaking territories, the French pulled out of Guinea over a two-month period, taking everything they could with them. They unscrewed lightbulbs, removed plans for sewage pipelines in Conakry, the capital, and even burned medicines rather than leave them for the Guineans."

245 I have a feeling that the State Dept and Xoe brought back all the regular Americans before the Taliban took over. That's why they left Bagram in the middle of the night--don't tell the Afghans!

Like some article asked, why haven't we seen one picture of a returning American? It's all Afghans with dual citizenship.
