The Morning Report - 2/23/22

axisofeviltruobabid.jpg

Good morning, kids. Wednesday and it's the Ukrainian blintzkrieg, a.k.a. "squirrel!" and the collapse of our neighbor to the north into a totalitarian police state with the figurative and quite literal bastard child of Fidel Castro at the helm.

Let's get the bullshit of Ukraine out of the way first, although in the cold light of day, when viewed as yet another political calculation of Biden's puppet masters in the Klain Kalorama Komintern, it makes total sense. First, Ukraine was (and may still be to a greater or lesser extent) a pit of corruption so much so that Biden and his son, the erstwhile boyfriend of "Weed Slut 420," made millions off of Burisma and other pay for play influence peddling. Even though there's a different government now than when Biden was "fucking things up" as Obama's gravitas veep, Putin was propagandized as being in bed with Trump, and despite that myth/blood libel being completely exploded, the talking heads are still rubbing that shit into the ground. More to the point, with everything they are doing to this country turning into an abject disaster, the junta is desperate for a win. But as Russia - at the invitation of Biden to execute a "minor incursion" - rolls into the Donbas, the Dumbass in the Oval Office now has to pivot to perhaps the other part of the plan all along. IRAN.

The Ukraine invasion directly benefits the Islamic Republic. That's why, after months of stagnation in Vienna, in the days leading up to Russia's recognition of the separatist enclaves in eastern Ukraine, we are hearing that a deal with Iran is close to being signed.

Biden has alluded to securing cheap Iranian oil as an answer to high gas prices in the United States, a policy which has now been picked up by the media. Biden hit on rising oil prices again in his Tuesday speech, as did Kamala Harris in the course of the Munich conference.

Biden is cynically using Russia's destabilization of the global energy market to argue for the return to appeasement for the ayatollahs.

Ukraine was likely sacrificed well in advance in exchange for a lucrative energy deal and Iran's cooperation in Vienna.

So, strangle American energy production that under Trump made America a net energy exporter for the first time in over 60 years, try to kill off the Israel/Greece/Cyprus pipeline to Europe, then give the Mullahs the green light to nuke up in exchange for Iranian oil to try and ease Americans' pain at the pump.

What kind of a fucking insane, gibbering, drooling gabba-gabba-hey pinhead do you have to be to think this up? No, I'm not aiming that at Biden necessarily because he wouldn't know the time of day even if he was standing in front of a Best Buy and every TV in the window had on "Wapner." This crap was dreamed up by truly disturbed people like Jake Sullivan, Tony Blinken, Victoria Nuland, Ben Rhodes and Obama or some combination of them and others at Foggy Bottom-feeders.

Frankly, I feel sorry for the innocent people of Ukraine, Russia and anywhere else in the world. But it's not America's problem. And for sure, there is no way in hell American troops or other assets should be anywhere near there. Thank you Marsha Blackburn for that original and brilliant moniker of "the Axis of Evil." And a gigantic FUCK YOU to that praline sucking criminal Roger Wicker who is hot and horny to nuke Moscow. Worse, to send American soldiers into combat to die for absolutely nothing at all except to boost his holdings in whatever defense contractor has his seat reserved on its board when he slithers away from DC, or sent to the glue factory after resting in a pine box in the Rotunda.

Axis of Evil. Want to see the Axis of Evil? I'll tell you where it is right now, my friends. It's in DC and Ottawa, and everywhere a Democrat/leftist regime wields the power to crush you mind, body and soul, not to mention wallet. And if you were literally barefoot with only a ratty linen sheet like Mahatma Gandhi and dared state out loud "I protest," you'd be arrested as a terrorist fomenting the overthrow of the government and have your sheet confiscated and sold off. After getting your face stomped by the hooves of the RCMP's horses or the state-sponsored and approved enforcers.

Locations of the Freedom Convoy donors in Ontario, Canada, have been published on Google Maps after the names of those who gave money to the crowdfunding platform GiveSendGo were leaked online.

The Google Maps link contains thousands of pins pointing to locations of donors throughout the Canadian province, with each pin listing their names, donor ID, email address, and the amount they donated, including those as low as $10.

Recall California's Proposition 8 that passed by a handy margin that banned same sex marriage and what happened to the anonymity of its donors. One of them, Brendan Eich, was hounded out of his CEO position at Mozilla, and he was lucky he didn't wind up with his house burned to the ground. That was just eight years ago. Look where we are today. Cities now get burned to the ground simply because cops were doing their job and a black criminal died while resisting arrest (I don't give a rat's ass about the knee on the neck. That was not what killed the thug.). And the government gives its seal of approval. Protest at the Capitol on January 6, 2021 and that's treason and insurrection. Never mind that the violence and mayhem inside the building - a mile away from the rally - was planned and executed by the FBI/DOJ at the behest of the Democrat Party and its allies in the GOP-e.

So, there's a convoy heading to DC and I can see the writing on the wall right now.

Democrat Rep. Ruben Gallego (AZ) called for seizing the trucks of protesters headed to Washington, D.C., and then giving the property to businesses looking to grow.

"Perfect time to impound and give the trucks to small trucking companies looking to expand their business," Gallego tweeted in response to the following news headline: "Trucker convoy could shut down DC Beltway tomorrow."

"Law enforcement agencies in Maryland, Virginia and D.C. are monitoring what could be a number of trucker convoys coming to D.C.," the report said. "Truckers apparently spurred on by the recent protests in Canada want their voices heard, but the extent of the protests and how disruptive they may be is still unclear."


I'm not saying the truckers shouldn't come to DC. It's kind of a damned if you do damned if you don't situation. There has to be protest. There has to be pushback. The problem is, we now have a government in power that is so desperate and fearful as well as drunk on its own power that what happened up in Ottawa is making their mouths water at the prospect of doing it here.

The idea that they can actually strangle any and all voices of opposition - not just in a trucker convoy but all over the country, in the media and right here where we live on the internet - is just way too tempting. Especially now that their agenda and what they have wrought is collapsing in on them.

We are fast approaching a moment of truth here. Yikes.

We either have the right to protest peacefully (we most certainly do), or we do not (as illegally decreed by our overlords). And if we do not, it needs to be explicitly told to the American people by these tyrannical monsters in Washington. Then let the SHTF and see where it all falls politically.

12 Mornin', all! Thanks for the newz, JJ!

I want the truckers to protest because silence is acquiescence. So much of the last couple of years people have used the media silencing of real protests to say shit like, "well, I don't see anyone mad about this." I blame no one who doesn't participate, however. It's all a mess. I'd love to see a real siege of DC, and I don't think it would take long done right, but I fully understand that people who attempt it are putting their lives on the line and should get their affairs in order and their family as secured as possible before they do.

For those wondering, 700 unarmed national guard troops have been approved for road management during the Convoy. 400 from DC and 300 from "elsewhere". None will be armed, but will be there to keep roads open, so I assume the call ups from "elsewhere" focus on truck driving personnel, while the DC ones are "security" and b/c they were the only place publicly they could get easily.

I don't give Biden the credit. This rot started with Don't Ask Don't Tell in the Clinton regime, and had a JATO attached to it under Obama.

Trump was an idiot and injected massive amounts of debt backed money to make it even larger and more wasteful.

I can think of three solid options, any of which might be true:
1. You're a True Believer and genuinely thing - no, you *know* - that this will work because your philosophy and indoctrination all indicate that it will. Just need to stick with it and keep doing the right thing.
2. You're genuinely evil and you want to do everything you can get away with in the service of evil.
3. You're an utter moron (small "m," not the good kind) and are so vastly incompetent and arrogant that you can't help but foul things up at every juncture.

I think it's likely the power of "and." All three kinds have their hands on the controls.

My only minor quibble, but it's noteworthy anyway, is that I simply do not believe they are fearful. They aren't fearful at all. They have all wind at their sails and they know it. They have all the boxes checked, all bases covered, all big tech, all msm, most all corporations, and all major banks behind them should push come to shove. We are being systematically silenced and crushed. And not a bloody peep from the GOP or anyone else to call out what is happening. Everything is at their fingertips, at their disposal, and they have nothing to fear. And they know it.

This is why I've been losing sleep these last few days. I know where this is headed. J6 was a real eyeopener as to what they're capable of. Canada sealed it.

J.J., Mis Hum, CBD, and Jay Guevara talk about the truckers' convoy and how it might be best played out here in America. Good stuff. Though their last segment about Ukraine is hilariously outdated.

It depends on the setting. If you're one-on-one if you are the sole normal person in an entire group of lefty toolboxes, then I agree. There is no point and you will just be frustrated.

If you're in a mixed group, debate or argue with the leftist. Not to try to convince him that he is wrong (that's a pointless exercise), but because your rational, informed argument and his insane gibbering reflexive leftist talking points will *both* be observed by those around you. You don't debate a leftist for his sake or to try change his mind, you debate a leftist for the benefit of the third parties who listen to you.

Your story on Maryland and the bill to prohibit removing homeless camps.

Baltimore's Mayor Brandon Scott (D) has a new proposal to end homelessness in Baltimore.

Why yes, it does involve over $90 million in federal Covid Relief funds.

And taking over two failed downtown hotels.

But hey...we will end homelessness in our lifetime!

Contemplate how you would form your opinion of world events - with only access to the major news channels and your local newspaper.

Shutting down the internet would disrupt every facet of life. Many people don't seem to understand that *everything* uses the internet now. Supply chains, banking, monetary transactions, parts ordering, inventory control, lighting, controls, etc. all need it. The problem with "shutting down the internet" isn't that Twitter or AoS go away, it's that the entire economy essentially grinds to a halt and a lot of core infrastructure will either shut down or be at risk of shutdown very quickly. Even if the power plant isn't on the internet, its gas operator is.

100 My only minor quibble, but it's noteworthy anyway, is that I simply do not believe they are fearful. They aren't fearful at all. They have all wind at their sails and they know it. They have all the boxes checked, all bases covered, all big tech, all msm, most all corporations, and all major banks behind them should push come to shove. We are being systematically silenced and crushed. And not a bloody peep from the GOP or anyone else to call out what is happening. Everything is at their fingertips, at their disposal, and they have nothing to fear. And they know it.

THIS x1000. It's why Sarah Hoyt's "They're doing this because they're scared and desperate" schtick annoys the hell out of me.

I expect the left to be evil. I once expected the GOP to stand against them. No more. In a darkly humorous way, I look forward to him calling the trucker convoy an 'insurrection,' just as that worthless nickelfucker did for J6.

Even if the power plant isn't on the internet, its gas operator is.

This has been war gamed out many times, particularly concerning the power grid too.

They lose control when they don't have the internet or the grid. That is why they are doing all that they can to completely control both. The smart meter shuts down YOUR power, the ISP shuts down YOUR connection.

The move to an all electric fleet of everything is because stored fuel lets you do things that can't be instantly switched off.

And I doubt lifting the Iranian sanctions would add much oil to the supply, since I am confident they are already selling it to the Chinese and others.

All of this is the end game of the rabid Jew-haters in the state department and throughout our ruling elites. They want a powerful Iran to threaten Israel as a way to decrease Israel's influence in the Middle East. And as a bonus maybe Iran will nuke Tel Aviv and they can all celebrate.

141 I think it take about 6 or 7 why is thats? to get to a real answer.

You must have really intelligent neighbors.

I have an informal scale of intelligence I call the Y Factor.
Take an issue/fact and then ask "Why?"

Example: "Why is the junta sanctioning Russia?" Whatever answer you get, then say "Why" followed by the last sentence they uttered.

For a while, the population's Y Factor I figured to be about 2, but a decade later it has degenerated down to 1 on average. That means most people don't know why because their Y Factor is 0 - you will get the "I dunno" pretty much instantly.

142 For those wondering, 700 unarmed national guard troops have been approved for road management during the Convoy. 400 from DC and 300 from "elsewhere". None will be armed, but will be there to keep roads open, so I assume the call ups from "elsewhere" focus on truck driving personnel, while the DC ones are "security" and b/c they were the only place publicly they could get easily.
Posted by: Nova local at February 23, 2022 07:50 AM (exHjb)

you know, it would seem to me, as long as the trucks just form a conga line and slowly drive through and around DC, maybe line up for a gas station every now and again with 50 or 100 trucks at a time, they can't get them for driving around. at least, they shouldn't be able to without making it PAINFULLY obvious.

Posted by: WiNO - The Odds Are Never in Our Favor at February 23, 2022 08:15 AM (EpDzw)

There is a very good reason to fear Iran getting nukes; and that is that they will use them. Israel and Saudi (who probably has gotten a few from Pakistan) will use their's in response. Once the nukes start flying around the middle east, China will not feel constrained from using any of their to pick up some chips on the board, and given Xi's megalomania, it wouldn't be surprising if he took the opportunity to knock out some American carrier groups. Then we would have to retaliate.

If you want the chance of living through an actual, worldwide, nuclear war, letting Iran have the bomb is a good way to start. (and this has been known for at least 40 years now)

205 SAINT OF THE DAY
St. Polycarp of Smyrna (c. 69-155 A.D.) became a Christian in his youth, a disciple of St. John the Evangelist. St. John ordained him Bishop of Smyrna (in modern day Turkey) and from this position Polycarp became one of the most illustrious of the Apostolic Fathers. His closeness with the Apostles, and the long life that he lived, enabled him to protect the Church against heresy. The account of his martyrdom is well-preserved and is one of the earliest in the Church. Knowing the government was seeking his life, he received a vision while praying that he would be burned alive. After his capture he was encouraged to submit to Caesar in order to be released, but he refused. He was then taken to a public arena to be killed. He gave an outstanding testimony, declaring that he had served Christ for 86 years. Witnesses of his execution saw the flames surround his body without burning it, and that Polycarp began to glow and emit a sweet aroma.

206 If you want the chance of living through an actual, worldwide, nuclear war, letting Iran have the bomb is a good way to start

Part of the central idea of MAD was that everyone with nukes was a rational actor.

Iran would clearly be the least rational actor to acquire nukes to this point.

It will also provide the junta an exceptional reason to accelerate the rest of their agenda and further lock us down to prevent an insurrection.

The nukes don't need to target the oil facilities. No one is going to show up for work for a long time if the cities get nuked. Just a couple of months disruption in the ME oil supply will trigger your Mad Max scenario over most of the world. China will burn. I think the Chinese understand this.

213 Touching on the fear from our leaders again, I keep going back to what they've accomplished with nary a drop of blood over the past year. They have literally stolen a US presidency, and while we all sat shellshocked over it, they succeeded wildly and nobody stopped them. Now, up north and here to an extent, they have instituted martial law, brought down the full weight of the gov't on dissenters, regular people who object to their plans. And they succeeded wildly and nobody stopped them. The WEFers and one world govt people probably can't believe how easy it's been. And because it's been so easy, it will accelerate quickly. Who can or will stop them?

230 Biden wasn't done for the day, though. He immediately entered a meeting about "green" energy initiatives, attended by California Gov. Gavin Newsom, among others. As an aside, what genius in the administration thought it was a good idea to go ahead with such an event during a time like this? Regardless, some of the worst optics I've ever seen for a president unfolded.

With an international crisis still playing out in real-time, Biden decided now was a good time to laugh about Russia's invasion, hawk green energy voodoo, and mock reporters who were asking him questions. The lack of self-control was astonishing.

282 laughable AOC propaganda piece came in this bit ..

They don't take me seriously when I put on eyeshadow. People are calling me unintelligent just because I'm dumb. It's pretty funny, but the funniest of all was hearing Sandy Cortez describe herself as a "woman of color." She often does. No one ever dares to challenge that description, but every honest person knows it is hilariously absurd.

There is no place on Earth, outside of American colleges and newsrooms, where Sandy Cortez would be recognized as a "woman of color," because she's not. She's a rich, entitled White lady.

It doesn't matter which shade they are. Apparently, the editors at New York Magazine don't ski. They spend the entire book pretending that Sandy Cortez has just emerged from some teeming favela in the slums of Rio to save the world's poor.

I find Tucker far more informing than Bongino. Bongino has his own TV program, podcast and 15 hours a week of radio.

Everything that he might report on has already been published years ago. he has been coy on anything C19 related with his strongest criticism being "if the masks work so well then why aren't they working". Which is cute but doesn't address any of the policy behind it.

For example, the reason why many schools are requiring children to continue to wear masks is because the schools are receiving federal C19 funds. you won't hear that on his program, just the rhetorical question - which amounts to no information.

337 Regarding Bongino on Durham - what he said was that it is important that the Hillary spying piece was in a conflict of interest memo (which is not an indictment or anything else).

He said that Durham was trying to make the point to Sussman that his lawyers were not necessarily working on his behalf. Which is something I haven't heard from anyone else - most people are too busy spiking the football on "Durham said it was Hillary!" I think that is a valid take on it, but not sure where it goes.

They cling to these quaint notions of how the system will naturally correct itself when we get the right majority in Congress or we get the righteous results of some good-and-proper investigation. It is a basic denial or lack of consciousness of the degree of corruption in which we're immersed and what it will take to deal with the Left.

Ah yes, Jake Sullivan. See below for an AP report from 2013 about the Obama creeps who were sent to secretly negotiate with Iran about a nuke deal. We know where Sullivan is now; Burns is now Director of the CIA. Holy moley, the US is being sold-out everywhere you look.

"In November 2013, the Associated Press reported that officials in the Obama administration had been in secret contact with Iranian officials throughout 2013 about the feasibility of an agreement over the Iranian nuclear program. The report stated that American officials, including Deputy Secretary of State William Burns, Senior White House Iran Advisor Puneet Talwar, and Sullivan, had secretly met with their Iranian counterparts at least five times face to face in Oman."

In the world of conservative talk show hosts-
There are but 3 kinds:

1) The Rush Limbaughs - basically a smart guy who can talk about politics in a funny, entertaining, optimistic way for 3 hours/day. Pretty much a category of one though Mark Stein comes very close.

2) The Sean Hannitys - simple, repetitive messaging with a nice everyman schtick. Plenty o'guests. The easiest of talk show hosting gigs. Though not surprisingly Sean Hannity is the King of the Sean Hannitys. Few do it as well as he.

3) The Fake, Mobyesque Libtards Wanting a Paycheck - IMHO someone like Michael Savage IMHO falls into this category, though there are plenty of others.

There you go a handy, easy to read list for identification of talk show hosts in the wild.

This thread looks far beyond "Social Credit" to total control of who may spend money, period.

436 Woman running for Congress from PA-3 is former strip dancer with a line of clothes called "Elect Hoes"

They fired her as a soccer coach because she'd *been* a stripper? Stupid.

But as she is running as a Dem and writing in the PuffHo I bet she is all in on cancelling people she doesn't like...

439 Sour Patch Lids, from Tim Pool's circle (like Neo in the matrix, I am past using the real names of people) thinks that the dem party might be done in less than 10 years.

And to dismantle the one party is to finally be able to bring the other to heel. Ironic when I used to speak positively about the 2-party system.

In ~2008 I would argue regularly with the entire spectrum. I also had a feeling that they come from a school that will be prone to making devastating mistakes and insufficiently self-correct. Implosion, deep embarrassment, and bewildered confusion 20 years hence was what I saw. But how could this be? I mean I don't have a crystal ball.

They just had no self-awareness, and were viciously mean to people that they might have known a long time. That was the sign.

440 Those 700 NG troopers are claimed not be "armed" but you know they're "armed" anyway, right?

As are the 100 or so odd sharpshooters at various vantage points in and around the capitol city.

The junta is treating this as a siege. They renamed J6 "The Capitol Siege" instead of "The Capitol Breech." Any perceived move on DC and it's game on. The junta and its followers want this. They are so close to finishing off the country they can taste it.

441 I think-depending on their politicall POV I'd be more inclined to vote for a former stripper than a woman who just stripped to make a politcal ad.

447 It has to be said: whoever planned the American trucker convoy has sh*t for brains. They learned NOTHING from Jan 6. Why don't you guys just park your trucks and and have a beer? No laws broken. No reason to get arrested and your property confiscated. And you bring the Biden administration to its knees.

But no. Like every other dipsheep for the last 50 years you need your 15 minutes of fame. Well, with your playing into their narrative of 'freedom' being a synonym for 'radical,' you are actually doing the struggle for freedom great harm. Congratulations.

450 DC has already figured out how to reap the most from the potential "threat" of the truckers showing up.
Given that it becomes a game of optics and not much more unless simultaneous demonstrations are held across the country. Wait until gas hits S7 or $8 a gallon for regular and maybe then people will stand up united for freedom.

I agree with this. They just need to park their trucks. Don't waste the diesel or hurt the innocent people in DC who have to live and work there (namely, my 24 year old daughter). Everyone can get behind the trucker parking their trucks and taking the retard down.

452 310 "Dan Bongino seems to stretch about five minutes worth of material into a three hour presentation. I've heard broken records that were less repetitive."

Yes, I used to listen for the nuggets of content he sometimes has, but after a while there was just too much fluff and repetition to wade through. Too many idiosyncratic "gags". You could tell some commenters were trying to wise him up, but he loves own voice too much.

453 Agree with commenters above...just park your trucks.

Don't go into DC for anything...let the groceries run out. Then don't go into VA or MD, let the circle get wider till they finally notice.

This^^^^ And Jesse Waters with his schtick--I can't watch it. He has great insights on The Five but it doesn't stretch into 47 minutes very well.

455 What is happening in Ukraine and on the Mexican border are related. The Mexican cartels have a deal with Putin to smuggle Spetznaz troops into the US and the chaos is excellent cover for that activity. Fit Iranians of military age have also been caught and then released into the country.

If you are not concerned about Ukraine, you should be.
