The Morning Report - 2/7/22

Good morning, kids. Start of a new week and I guess one thing that we the people and those who seek to enslave us can agree on is the statement that the peasants are revolting. Except the incredible trucker convoy and support of it is a verb to the former, yet an adjective to the latter. And that's just for starters. Yet, as per David Catron at American Spectator:

[So-called quote-unquote "president"] Biden, having already committed to replacing Breyer with an affirmative action hire, is all but certain to nominate a far left radical in order to provoke a confirmation brawl with the GOP as the midterms approach.

Without getting into the weeds over the fact that having promised to nominate a black woman to replace Breyer, if Biden granted a full pardon to Assata "Joanne Chesimard" Shakur and nominated her that every Democrat, perhaps even Manchin too, would vote to confirm her, is this even necessarily top of mind with most people? That is, after unleashing societal neutron bombs on our economy, culture and society, is the inevitable-as-the-sunrise playing of the race card really going to help the Democrats at the polls? Whatever happens next November, even if Dao-Min Yen is not a factor (and that is a dangerous assumption, all things considered) and the GOP destroys the Dems, we are so far beyond the line of demarcation where the Rubicon stood that elections are just not the solution to our problems, present and future.

Shifting back to the situation in Canada, the trucker convoy has reached a point where it actually forced Castro's little bastard Trudeau into hiding. Is he really fearful that he's going to share the same fate as Mussolini and the Ceaucescus? Or is this a ploy as a means to smear the protesters as a danger to their "precious democracy" (vomit) thereby justifying setting the RCMP on them with lethal force? As Trudeau's idol Mao Tse-Tung once said, "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." Looks like he's taking that to heart; Ottawa has declared a state of emergency and is threatening to arrest anyone who gives food or fuel to the truckers. I guess in Trudeau's eyes that constitutes "aid and comfort to the enemy."

Friend of the blog, the estimable Michael Walsh really nails what's been going on these past "two weeks" which have flattened society, as well as what might be just around the corner.

. . . while [Chinese] Covid may finally have been exposed for the non-apocalyptic event it always was, such tyranny is only the beginning until we put a stop to it. Put a stop to extra-legal "emergency" measures that are transparently and insultingly fraudulent, and which are invoked in the name of the "greater good." Put a stop to the notion of judicially sanctioned "protected classes" in a formerly classless society,. Put to stop the notion of a "New Normal" of privation, deviancy, and spiritual and material penury imposed by Leftists as they continue their centuries-old task of undermining every tenet of Western Civilization in the name of "equity" -- in a world in which equality is aspirational at best and equity is impossible.

And, once and for all, put paid to the notion that "when you've got your health you've got everything," the motto of a nation of neurotic hypochondriacs that is fundamentally at odds with every principle of the moral and socially productive life. For under this seemingly anodyne contention lies a wealth of mischief, chief among them the idea that your fellow citizens pose an existential threat to you by their refusal to conform, and thus can and should be restricted, incarcerated, or even killed as the need arises. And all in the name of Socialism, whether National or international. . .

. . . Make no mistake: Covid was only a beta-test, one that a submissive population passed with flying colors. Instantly repealed, without all that pesky business about amending the Constitution, were the first, fourth, fifth, and the eighth articles of the Bill of Rights. (The ninth and tenth, of course, have long since been rendered null, void, and nugatory. You remember them, the ones that reserve all unenumerated rights not mentioned in the Constitution to the people and the states.) This is why former president Barack Obama infamously referred to our founding document as a "charter of negative liberties." Which is precisely what the Founders desired.

Obama is considered one of the elites, mostly by himself and everyone who used him as a slightly more believable animatronic puppet than that of the demented Joey Soft-Serve whose strings and hinged jaw are clearly visible despite whoever the Gerry & Sylvia Andersons are trying to make the herky jerky movements look like Fred Astaire. Victor Davis Hanson demolishes the lot:

An elite is always variously defined.

The ideal elites, as ancient philosophers argued, were a "natural elite" due to their exemplary character, aptitude, and work ethic. Understandably, a towering few ascended from all walks of life to positions of power, influence, and occasional wealth.

But such a natural meritocracy, for obvious reasons, rarely leads to an equality of result. . .

. . . What counts more, however, is not so much who becomes an oligarchical elite, but what exactly has this newer sort of elite class done for our society at large?

Collectively, this generation's record of leadership, such as it is, has been mostly dismal: no Hoover Dam, no subsequent moon-landing or trip to Mars, no Normandy Beach or Inchon, no polio vaccine, no "Casablanca," "The Best Years of our Lives," or "Shane" movies, and no novels like For Whom the Bell Tolls, The Grapes of Wrath, Tender is the Night, Absalom, Absalom! or Invisible Man -- but plenty of California-like Solyndras and Stonehenge high-speed rails, skedaddles from Kabul and Benghazi, gifting of $80 billion in arms to the Taliban, double-vaxxed and boosted, sorta, kinda short-term immunity, "X-Men" and "Avenger" comic-book films, and How to Be an Anti-Racist best sellers. . .

. . . Elites hate the truckers. We know that from their outrage over the Canadian trucker strike -- and Justin Trudeau's infantile meltdown. They care little for the working moms who lost their jobs when schools closed, and who had to quit work to watch their children. They have no concern for the small businesses that went broke, as the Zoom class made more money than ever during [Chinese] COVID-19. The more we elected credentialed district attorneys, the more crime shot up, the innocent suffered, and the elite shrugged.

The elite gave us the Russian collusion hoax, the beatification of the prevaricator Adam Schiff, the iconization of the disingenuous conniver Alexander Vindman, the neat idea of modern monetary theory, the bold idea of open borders, the beloved idea of critical race theory, and a spiking violent crime wave explained away by critical legal theory.

The only real recent public service of elites has been to persuade us why they were never elites at all.

Two photos should be shoved into the face of every single Karen you encounter. One is moronic lipid mass Stacy "Tank" Abrams maskless in a classroom full of masked children, and the other is Obama, caught maskless in the lens of a paparazzo in front of his under-construction Hawaiian mansion. That would be the danger of General Tso's Sickness AND Global Warming at the same time. Funny how the value of land in places like Malibu, the Hamptons, Palm Beach and Hawaii are through the roof despite the impending doom of being under water within the next 10 years.

Meh. I don't hate Obama or Trudeau or Biden. Just their guts.

Actually she isn't my sister, but a good friend. Someone I kind of know. From twitter.
And she isn't in Ottawa at the moment, but she thinks that if she was in Ottawa, or Canada, she would probably be scared that she would be raped by one of the truckers. That is reason enough to shut it down.

11 Shifting back to the situation in Canada, the trucker convoy has reached a point where it actually forced Castro's little bastard Trudeau into hiding. Is he really fearful that he's going to share the same fate as Mussolini and the Ceaucescus? Or is this a ploy as a means to smear the protesters as a danger to their "precious democracy" (vomit) thereby justifying setting the RCMP on them with lethal force?
++++
In fairness - both to the truckers and to Trudeau - he went into hiding *before* the main demonstration even arrived in Ottawa. He vanished like dew in the morn before the trucks even got there. The entire exercise could have been a wet fart and Trudeau would *still* have gone into hiding (though I reckon he wouldn't still be in hiding).

As for why, I am sure it is a bit of everything. Trudeau's cowardice and incompetence and petulance, the optics of an "insurrection" that "disrupts and shuts down the government," a rationale for a violent escalation, etc.

They are a very shitty elite and I think it's due to an inversion. They aren't in their positions by virtue of being elite, they're elite by virtue of being in their positions.

It is amusing how clueless and stupid they all are.

They printed a story describing the hardships of the workers of Rearden Steel under the present rise in the cost of their living - next to a story describing Hank Rearden's profits, of five years ago. They printed a story on the plight of a Rearden worker's wife trudging from store to store in a hopeless quest for food - next to a story about a champagne bottle broken over somebody's head at a drunken party given by an unnamed steel tycoon at a fashionable hotel; the steel tycoon had been Orren Boyle, but the story mentioned no names.

59 As was mentioned in the Tech Thread, Rogan is done, he apologized for something he didn't have to apologize for, his apology was rewarded by them digging up past statements that he then further apologized for, which precipitated Spotify to remove 113 episodes, this will be rewarded by them digging up more stuff causing Rogan to grovel more, this will also more than likely scare people off from going on his show and limiting the topics he will cover in the future.

The bottom line is that once the left has picked a target, they do not stop until they have destroyed that target.

66 I don't know a huge amount of the German political parties but given that they have a new chancellor (Olaf Scholz) from the SPD party as opposed to the CDU party (Merkel's party). According to the worst source on the internet (Wikipedia):

SPD: Social democracy, Pro-European, Center-Left, affiliated with "Party of European Socialists"

CDU: Christian democracy, liberal conservatism, Pro-European, Center-Right, affiliated with "European People's Party"

So I get a serious Uniparty vibe from these two based on my cursory research, with the SPD being the worse branch. And the Germans got rid of Merkel in favor of someone even worse. Is my perception on that approximately correct, or am I way off base?

It was obvious, even at the time, that the alliance would not survive the War and that they'd immediately be at each other's throats.

Energy costs are the main cost component in any modern manufacturing facility. Energy in Germany now costs 4 times what it costs in Texas, for example. (there are also other places in the world that are as cheap) Germany now has the highest manufacturing costs in the world, and there is no way they can repair that situation until they abandon their current energy policy - and they're not going to do that.

156 As I said last week, I think Kurt Schlichter is a useless, self-promoting windbag, but he's right on point when he says we have no idea what lengths the left / government / elites will go to in order to hold on to their power. If they feel the armed forces have to go out and kill, they will order it.

And check my link above. If the order to kill the deplorables is given, it will be obeyed. Without question. And the deplorables will fall into line.

i'm not so convinced the orders will be obeyed, it doesn't always happen. In the Russian Revolution, the troops stayed in their barracks. In the Romanian Revolution, the troops fought back against State Security. Trudeau's govm't is not widely liked at any level; as long as the Truckers stay non-violent, I believe that the troops will refuse to take part.

___________

For one thing, Joey Biden doesn't have the power to pardon her.

She was convicted of murdering a NJ state patrol officer, in a state court, under state law. Only NJ can pardon her. The U.S. president has no pardon power over state convictions.

Chesimard was also tried on some federal charges for other shit she did (like robbing banks, kidnapping, etc.), but she was either acquitted or had a hung jury in those various federal cases.

169 OK MPPP I'll take your marker on this.

Well, bear in mind that I am an incurable cynic and always look for the worst in any situation. I think, as someone pointed out above, that the Canadian trucker revolt is going to peter out in a couple of weeks, as the government has already shown it is ready to use deadly force and the truckers don't want to incite violence.

So what next? A national strike? Sadly, I don't see that happening. And I have absolutely no confidence in an American trucker strike.

But YMMV.

In this country, it may feel hateful, but we have to move more slowly and carefully. We have not built up organizations we can count on yet, and institutional control is far too strong still. The Canadian Govm't is no way capable of the kind of heavy handedness that the Chinese Govm't was capable of, but the American Govm't is, and we have to pay respect to the power available to be used against us if we move too openly, too fast.

It causes your cells to create the spike protein. The problem is the spike protein, by itself, is harmful.

236 Johnson is getting hammered for not living by the COVID rules he pushed on Britain.

But...are there any politicians that haven't been caught doing this? I assume ALL of them did the same thing.
Posted by: 18-1 at February 07, 2022 08:44 AM (ESjRY)

They all did it and Johnson is not an exception. The reason they're suddenly going after him while every other politician on earth is immune from criticism over this comes down to how Johnson responded to the problem.

Every other politician has done one of three things:
1. Ignore it
2. Laugh at the peasants
3. Make a lame rationalization about why it's not what it looked like

Not Johnson, though. No, he decided to go down a different road and just repeal COVID restrictions and declare it to be over. That is unacceptable and it is the reason - and I suspect the only reason - why Johnson, unlike every other politician in the world, might be punished for it.

for me I can explain it. it triggered an immune response in my body which was very strong and is still being activated, I can only assume by remaining mRNA molecules in my site arm.

good news is my immune system DOES work. I've had a couple of colds and they went by really quick and easy. so no problem there but who knows how COVID itself would affect me? that could be really bad due to OAS.

From a 2017 article about Moderna:

"It's all vaccines right now, and vaccines are a loss-leader," said one former Moderna manager. "Moderna right now is a multibillion-dollar vaccines company, and I don't see how that holds up."...
His presentation instead focused on four vaccines that the company is moving through the first phase of clinical trials: two target strains of influenza, a third is for Zika virus, and the fourth remains a secret.

The spike protein IS the major inflammatory factor in the disease. If you get COVID, nearly all of the spike protein is bound to the virus itself. Big, clunky, immunogenic. The body deals with it.
With the vaccine, your body releases unbound spike protein to circulate wherever and trigger inflammatory responses in blood vessels, heart muscle, whatever.

265 205 Ottawa Police seize 3,200 litres of fuel being stored in the parking lot of Ottawa Baseball Stadium.
[845 U.S. gallons]

For some reason the MFM never use 'diesel', I'm guessing because they want to give the false impression that explosive gasoline is being unsafely stored. They were whining about propane tanks as well.
Posted by: andycanuck (UHVv4) at February 07, 2022 08:46 AM (UHVv4)

A handy thing to remember; when discussing fuel, news stories use "Barrels" to give real measurements, "Gallons" if they want to make it seem bigger than it is, "Liters" if they are really trying to make nothing sound like something. In this case, 3200 liters about 1 small tanker load of fuel, which means this was a purely symbolic move of no actual impact.

real story - police made a big show of force and confiscated one small truck, then went home.

We had a fiscal supervisor when I was in civil service who loved to work overtime without pay because she had no home life. Overtime in CS is a hard no-no unless pre approved and certified days in advance unless you are deemed "essential". She was not authorized to work overtime but she kept coming in early and staying late. One night when she left the building she tripped on the stairs and fell quite a distance, tore her back and hip up.


They denied her workmans comp claim, made her use up her sick and annual leave while she was out recovering. She quietly retired after that.

I believe it is trying to placate the Karenwaffen. They like rules and process. In talking with these people they seriously follow this sh*t and you'll hear things like;

The governor said we can end the mask mandate if (some metric). And he's being smart because if we don't hit that metric he can keep us safe!

They don't know masks are proven to do nothing about transmission of COVID. And, more importantly, they aggressively don't want to know.

321 From a news item on Daily Mail today (Pentagon absolves everyone from Brandon down from responsibility for the Kabul airport suicide bombing):

"The suicide bombing in Kabul that killed 13 US service members and over 170 Afghans in August was 'not preventable,' the Pentagon announced on Friday following a probe into the attack.

The terror attack, which ISIS claimed responsibility for, occurred in the early morning hours of August 26, during the frenzied evacuation near the US embassy.

'Based on our investigation at the tactical level, this was not preventable,' General Lance Curtis said during a briefing Friday.

'And the leaders on the ground followed the proper measures. And any time there was an imminent threat warning they followed the proper procedures: they lowered their profile, they sought cover and, at times, they even ceased operations at the gate.' "

Gref comment: Maybe the situation was exactly as the Pentagon says. But why should we trust the Junta-run DoD?

That might be true. Let's assume it is, and that there was nothing that could have been done to prevent that final attack of the Afghan war. Even accepting that, there's another very important question that can never be answered because it would require a time machine: "would this attack have happened or been possible had the evacuation base been Bagram instead of the airport?"

377 It is as if they had the plans, and were just waiting for the right trigger.

The western countries ran a massive infectious disease outbreak drill a year before COVID.

Someone posted a scientific article - peer reviewed, posted at the NIH or somewhere similar - detailing the presence of COVID-19 in the U.S. in 2018.

They were just waiting for the moment to start the panic.

382 299 I still see people alone in cars driving with masks on.
How very strange.


Why are the performers in movies, TV shows, and commercials made around the world in the past two years not wearing masks? (we all know the reasons) Have any studios with maskless performers been the center of an outbreak? How many non-masked performers caught COVID on the job before vaccines? None for both, to my knowledge. Another good example of stupid rules and double standards by Our Betters.

Transwoman is also a transwolf.

"If you're confused on the math here, let me break it down. This person, Okami, says he is an 'otherkin therian,' which is a term you can expect to hear a lot in the future as it becomes boring and stale to simply identify as transgender.

"But basically, this is a man who wanted to pretend at being a woman in order to fill some neurotic fantasy, but found that wasn't enough, so he now identifies as a wolf. A 'British Columbia' wolf, to be precise, based on 'meditation and research.'"

That's something that a lot of Americans are learning about first hand right now.

Usually when vaccines are developed they are tested in 3rd world sh*tholes and lots of 3rd world sh*thole residents die so that 1st world residents can take a safer injection. This is not a joke or hyperbole. That's how it works. Like child slaves digging up rare earth minerals while people who want electric cars look the other way, that's how vaccines are developed for wealthy nations.

Guess who is getting to be the trial group for this run?

388 FWIW, found this: Aug 30, 2021 ttps://tinyurl.com/yc395dcw

US military leaders knew in advance that a "mass casualty event" was planned at Kabul airport, a Politico report reveals. However, accounts from the troops in harm's way suggest that nothing was done.

The initial bombing didn't take US officials by surprise. The US embassy in Kabul had warned Americans to stay away from the airport due to "security threats" and, in the hours before the suicide attack, Pentagon leaders held a conference call to prepare for an imminent "mass casualty event," according to a Politico report on Monday.

The report says Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin spoke on Wednesday with senior Pentagon leaders. . .Milley warned of "significant" intelligence indicating that ISIS-K, a regional offshoot of the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) terror group was plotting a "complex attack," and the brass in Afghanistan stated that the attack would likely take place at the airport's Abbey Gate, where droves of of Afghans had gathered in the hopes of a spot on an evacuation flight.

"Chinese Olympics fans erupted on social media, furious that California-born skater Zhu Yi defected to China for the games but finished in a disastrous dead last place during her debut for Team China.
Yi, who gave up her U.S. citizenship to become a Chinese citizen so she could compete for the communist government's genocide Olympics, finished with the lowest score for the entire event in Beijing on Saturday, the Daily Mail reported."
A CIA plant, or something?

406 I had the 'Vid last week. Still have some lingering effects (lots of snot and a lot of flavors are still off), but I'm over it. The horse medicine (juice in my case, rather than paste) had an effect very quickly. Within four hours of my first and second doses, I started to improve and be less sick. The final dose didn't have that effect but I was already essentially better by then.

I don't have a time machine and so can't go run through the illness without it, but it sure did seem to help me.

Know what ivermectin is? It's a protease inhibitor. Know what Merck's new, very expensive, FDA-approved "covid treatment pill" Paxlovid is? It's a protease inhibitor.

What are the differences between the two drugs? Well for one thing, ivermectin has anti-inflammatory properties, and Merck's new covid drug does not. Severe inflammatory responses are one of the big dangers of covid infection.

But don't take ivermectin people! Only quacks and fringe elements on Spotify recommend that! Trust your government and Big Pharma (BIRM)! They know best!

Boris has problems with his failed energy policy as well with skyrocketing costs of energy in Great Britain due to 'green policies'.

Evil lives behind a veil of lies and silence, and these are evil times, days that would make even the Sodomites amazed.

The Canadians are showing us the depth and breadth of the actual evil that we face, along with the Complicit Evil going on across what used to be our southern border. Disgusting and fully Evil in both directions, and then to realize that half of our own humble Republic is every bit as derelict and degenerate.
