The Morning Report - 4/7/22

garlandshh.jpg

Thursday, and when a reliably obsequious junta house organ like See-BS, albeit via the reportage of rare actual journalist Catherine Herridge, is broadcasting to the heretofore shielded and perpetually lied to low-information audience about the astronomical graft of official son of a bitch Hunter Biden, you know that the knives are for sure out for him. How it redounds, or more accurately, how it's supposed to redound on the degenerate cur that spawned him is yet to be determined. A means to oust Joey Soft-Serve via impeachment or, as co-blogger Joe Mannix and others postulate a way to get this out into the news cycle early so as to water it down to the point of drowning it out of future news cycles, especially as the midterms heat up? Whatever the reason, there are plenty of juicy and infuriating links, given their complete embargo for a year and half, below, if that is your cup of tea.

For me, a crucial story that will doubtless get lost in the sauce of Biden graft or the Ukrainian "front" (if you catch my meaning) where Sponge Brain Square Depends came within a few mangled words of openly declaring war on Russia, was the news that a judge has acquitted a January 6th defendant based on the defense that, contrary to the bald-faced lie that he and other so-called "rioters" stormed the Capitol building in an act of violent insurrection, the Capitol Police unlocked the doors and invited them inside. One wonders if See-BS will be trumpeting this news as loud as they are now reporting on the Biden crime family. I wouldn't hold my breath.

But this news is nevertheless both absolutely welcome as it is crucial. It in theory could liberate the Garland Archipelago of the political prisoners being held and abused there for months on end without any due process whatsoever, solely for the purpose of warning anyone the fate that awaits them if they dare utter a peep about the illegitimacy of 2020. Meh, given the stranglehold on social media the junta has, who needs a corrupt DOJ? Still, this is huge.

Alan Dershowitz, who is representing a January 6 defendant facing roughly 20 years in prison, told The Daily Wire in an interview Wednesday that the acquittal of Capitol riot defendant Matthew Martin is “enormously important,” sets a legal precedent, and could swing momentum in favor of his legal team. . .

. . . Brady Knowlton, who Dershowitz is representing, spent 18 minutes in the Capitol on January 6 after he and others passed several police officers walking in their opposite direction, The Daily Wire reported. Knowlton told The Daily Wire that an officer said, “You can go in as long as you don’t break anything,” before watching police and protestors shaking hands.

Dershowitz said that “the subjective intent of the defendant is key,” noting that the judge took Martin’s word over that of the police and the prosecution. The courts “have to look at the state of mind of the defendant,” he said.

“If that’s the rule, we will win,” he said. “Because it’s clear Brady honestly and reasonably believed that he was not violating any rules or laws — that he was being welcomed — as long as he didn’t do any damage.”

It cannot be stated loudly, forcefully and often enough, but let me make this as clear as day for the Johnny Ray Jr.'s and any other sub minimum wage, sub literate trolls out there.

-- Not one single protester/rally goer who was unlucky enough to have entered the Capitol Building was armed. Ergo by definition, they could not and cannot be construed as having an intent to riot, let alone overthrow the government with their bare hands or buffalo helmets.

-- As we have known almost since day one, the protesters inside the Capitol Building - as has now been proven in a court of law - were allowed in by Capitol Police who, after unlocking the doors lectured those they were about to let in to behave, as if they were talking to a group on a guided tour.

-- The only acts of vandalism and violence that occurred were committed by a) known BLM and Antifa plants and confederates dressed in MAGA gear, such as this John Sullivan character, who were loudly exhorting the crowd to riot or b) uniformed Capitol Police officers and undercover FBI/DOJ "glowies" resulting in the death of innocent, non-violent and unarmed protesters including Ashli Babbitr and Roseanne Boyland. The death of officer Brian Sicknick was not because a "MAGA insurrectionist" bashed him on the head with a fire extinguisher but because of a heart attack not induced by any physical contact with anyone. Whatever injuries may or may not have been sustained by law enforcement and other security forces were because of unarmed innocent people defending themselves from winding up like Babbitt and Boyland.

-- The actual "Stop the Steal" protest rally which featured President Trump and other notable politicians and pundits was legal, peaceful and taking place many blocks away from the government-caused mayhem at the Capitol. Yet the rally itself, and its purpose which, again was peaceful and legal, is being painted as the worst attack on "our precious democracy" (*vomit) than the Civil War, Pearl Harbor and 9/11 combined.

-- Considering the malfeasance of Malig-Nancy Pelosi and Muriel Bowser who are in control of the Capitol Cops and DCPD respectively in knowingly providing scant police presence and whose officers allowed the protesters in, and considering the fact that the FBI and DOJ have a record of staging dubious entrapment scams that involve coercion and prosecutorial misconduct to railroad otherwise innocent parties, what happened at the Capitol building was a pre-planned, staged Reichstag Fire event.

As a result, the J-6 kangaroo court in Congress and the scores of political prisoners still being held in deplorable conditions - pun most definitely intended - have been and continue to be used as a means to crush any and all opposition to the junta that stole the election as well as delegitimize and even criminalize GOP candidates, in particular, any non-establishment pro-MAGA candidates and groups. I know I am sounding like a broken record as I have written this time and time again. But given the motives of those in power, the news of the verdict in this one case is pretty damned huge as well as encouraging. Lest we forget, the only reason the junta was emboldened enough to attempt to criminalize parents from protesting at school board meetings was because they did it before with the J-6 prisoners and thought they could get away with it.

While this verdict is certainly good news and hopefully causes the ripple effect Dershowitz describes that ends this nightmare for both the persecuted citizens and political opponents running for office, corrupt law enforcement and government are not going to lick their wounds, declare a mea culpa and beg forgiveness. Quite the opposite, in fact.

Touted as an overdue (if duplicative) law that no one could disagree with, the Emmett Till Antilynching Act signed by [so-called quote-unquote "president"] Biden last week includes a subtle provision that could boost the Biden [junta's] war on wrongthink.

The bill sailed through the U.S. Senate and the House with ease. The tactful naming made the bill radioactive to oppose, which is why 422 congressmen voted in favor while only three opposed.

Rep. Thomas Massie, one of the three who voted against the bill, expressed a handful of concerns, including that there are a limited number of constitutionally specified federal crimes, that lynching is already criminalized, and that “Adding enhanced penalties for ‘hate’ [on top of existing criminal punishments] tends to endanger other liberties such as freedom of speech.”

He also highlighted another potential pitfall of the legislation: “The bill creates another federal crime of ‘conspiracy,’ which I’m concerned could be enforced overbroadly on people who are not perpetrators of a crime” . . .

. . . I’m sure someone will retort: conspiracy to commit a federal crime is already a federal crime. This is not a universally accepted interpretation of conspiracy law, nor does the law’s language or historical precedent justify such a broad interpretation — hence the ostensible necessity for the new antilynching law. Criminalized conspiracies are those plotting “against the United States” – like the Volkswagen executives who attempted to defraud the Environmental Protection Agency by faking emission results and, more recently, the leader of the Oath Keepers who plead guilty to seditious conspiracy for his part in the Jan. 6, 2021 riot. . .

. . . With this new law, the U.S. government has further expanded into the realm of policing thought crimes. Ominously, this law comes on the heels of the Department of Homeland Security’s attempt to broaden the “domestic terrorism” category and expand methods for identifying “threats". . .

. . . “Domestic violent extremism poses the most lethal and persistent terrorism-related threat to our country today,” claimed Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas last spring. A White House press release added: “The two most lethal elements of today’s domestic terrorism threat are (1) racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists who advocate for the superiority of the white race and (2) anti-government or anti-authority violent extremists, such as militia violent extremists.”

It’s a mountain-out-of-a-molehill on par with the “Don’t Say Gay” hysteria. But this one may have far greater consequences down the road as texts, emails, social media posts, and everyday speech are monitored and analyzed by various three-letter agencies to establish the intent of our discourse.

So while the borders are open to drug dealers, rapists and other criminals from south of the border as well as Middle Eastern Religion-of-Peace peaceniks, the FBI and DOJ are focusing laser-like on parents who oppose the mind-, body- and soul-rape of their children and anyone who does not vote Democrat-Socialist while the Defense Department prepares for our greatest long range national security threats, "global warming" and homegrown white supremacy, but mostly homegrown white supremacy. Windmill status: [X] Tilting At, Hard.

If you're wondering how can any of those agencies, large and well funded (with our money) as they may be can police the thoughts of 330 million of us (minus the 40 million foreigners here illegally and soon to skyrocket), they have eyes and ears everywhere, maybe even in your own home.

The Left’s phony Jan. 6 “insurrection” witch hunt isn’t going to die down anytime soon. The Democrats still hope to use it to stigmatize and marginalize virtually all of their opposition as “insurrectionists” that all decent lovers of “our democracy” (that is, the Left’s hegemony) should shun. And although it is now almost a year and a half since the Terrible Event That Was Worse Than 9/11 and Pearl Harbor, there are more Jan. 6 prosecutions all the time, thanks to “citizen sleuths” who are ratting out protestors who were at the Capitol on the fateful day.

There are so many snitches that the system is being overwhelmed. NBC News reported Wednesday that “aided by citizen sleuths who keep identifying Jan. 6 rioters, the Justice Department is finding that it has more cases than lawyers to prosecute them.” Accordingly, “the Justice Department is asking Congress for additional funds to prosecute those cases — a list that keeps growing.” It’s growing because “multiple online sleuths in a network of ‘Sedition Hunters’ working’ to find Jan. 6 participants have told NBC News that they’ve successfully identified to the FBI hundreds of additional Jan. 6 rioters — including dozens who are pictured on the FBI’s Capitol Violence website.” And the feds, of course, are only too eager to act upon the information these rats feed them.

One snitch said nobly that he had plenty more work to do: “There are hundreds still to go,” he said, “speaking anonymously to avoid retaliation from supporters of the rioters.” Yeah, you know, he doesn’t want trouble from those dangerous traitors who were going to overthrow the government led by a few grandmothers and a guy with Viking horns. But however ridiculous it is, the narrative must be perpetuated, and so the “sleuth” remains anonymous. . .

. . . In September 1932, a thirteen-year-old boy, Pavlik Morozov, was found murdered in a Siberian forest; it turned out that he had denounced his father to the secret police, and authorities claimed that his own relatives had killed him. He was hailed as a hero of the Soviet Union. Before Pavlik was killed, he appeared at the trial of his father, Trofim Morozov, who called out to his son in the courtroom: “It’s me, your father!” Pavlik told the judge: “Yes; he used to be my father, but I no longer consider him my father. I am not acting as a son, but as a Pioneer,” that is, a member of the Soviet youth brigade.

Watch for the “citizen sleuths” to become heroes of the new woke order the Left is trying to build if they succeed. Maybe we’ll see statues of some of these slouching Internet nerds replacing the statues of Washington and Jefferson that Antifa and its allies have pulled down. Every civilization, even the most degenerate one, has its heroes.

Now you understand why Nikole Krylon Jeri Curl's 1619 Project and Ibram X. Krement's Jive Kampf crackpot race theory, along with Howard Zinn's bromide People's History of the US is the default curriculum of schools. No surprise why they want to criminalize homeschooling and ultimately replace the nuclear family with the all-powerful State as the parent.

Yes, this court decision looms potentially quite large, as does the impending seating of Kentanji what's her face on SCOTUS.

16 I was just scanning the ONT, and Publius wrote something that caught my eye:

"Right now, the Fed hasn't really done anything. It's jawboning: "Yep, inflation is getting out of hand, and we're going to have to do something. Yessirree, bobtail." They are attempting to talk the market into responding.
If the market doesn't they are going to have to do something themselves, which amounts to pulling the shit ton of money they put in the system out.

If the Fed goes Volcker, the economy is going to crash. It will be Great Depression 2.0. They know it. To save the dollar, a Greater Depression will be required.
Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion (Mzdiz) at April 07, 2022 01:46 AM (Mzdiz)

My belief is that the Feds will *not* be able to seriously respond to increasing inflation because of this. The political system won't dare to risk it. Therefore, inflation will continue to accelerate for at least another year.

80 Re: St. Petersburg

my brother is part of an international aid organization that has operations in many places, not so well known but leads him to interesting places. In recent years they've been supporting some protestant pastors and their congregations in St. Petersburg with food and financial aid. Those pastors are now getting desperate because they're broke and it's almost impossible to get anything through because of all the sanctions in place.

Anyway, he told me yesterday that his contacts in St. Petersburg tell him that everyone is terrified of criticizing their Governments actions, because they fear a new soviet-style crackdown coming on any dissenters. This is why any poll of Russians today should be disregarded; everyone is answering in the belief that Russian security forces are monitoring their responses. Also, he said that all of his contacts believe that Russian casualties in Ukraine have been far, far higher than the Russian government is letting on.

Divided government, at worst, would be a "Pox on all your houses!" outcome. That will all depend on how the new Congressional majorities handle things. If they pass a bunch of bills that would help and force Biden to veto them all, then that will fix the blame on him. (there will never be a veto-proof majority in the Senate) Democrats will still control all the agencies and the bureaucracy, so they will still be the ones who are actually running everything.

I expect the Feds to devolve into total gridlock from 2022 - 2024, and agree that this will be catastrophic. We'll see who plays that dysfunctional political hand better - if both parties fail, the country will be ready for some new, 3rd Force to rise and take control. Possibly not an elected one.

Inflation will continue for a year or 18 months after the Fed and/or the government begin taking concrete steps to deal with it. It takes time for inflation to hit, and it takes time for it to recede.

But to the first part - what will the Fed do - that is the biggest question in the world right now. The Fed always balances the politics against the money and economy, but ultimately their loyalty has been to the money and economy. Will the Fed save the dollar regardless of political cost, or will it ride the train all the way off the cliff and die with the country? I don't know the answer to that question. I suspect they will hold to their historical pattern of waiting too long but will ultimately act, even if the federal government enters existential crisis. I sure don't know, though.

124 Good morning everyone. Thank you J.J.
Saint of the Day
St. John Baptist de la Salle (1651-1719) was born in Rheims, France, to a noble family. His parents took great care over his moral and intellectual training. He entered seminary and was ordained at the age of twenty-seven. In St. John Baptist's era, only the noble and wealthy classes had access to a good education. His work among the poor led him to establish a home and school for rough and illiterate orphaned boys. The institution was successful and soon a second was established. He recruited and trained men to teach in free schools he founded for the poor, which grew into a brotherhood of young men who were attracted to a life of service in teaching and catechesis. This became the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, or Christian Brothers. They took vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. In many parts of France parish priests sent young men to be trained by St. John Baptist to serve as schoolmasters in their villages. St. John Baptist's foundations and methods soon became the standard for education in France and spread internationally. St. John Baptist de la Salle is the patron of schoolteachers.

______________

I think the loyalty is mostly to their personal wealth. If that's what you meant by "money." Because the second the political class sees their personal wealth at risk they'll move to preserve it. At any cost. They've demonstrated this historically too. If things get out of hand and a hard crash is looming I'd almost expect the majority of them to flee rather than have to ride the storm out. They've all got "other living arrangements" anyway.

145 But to the first part - what will the Fed do - that is the biggest question in the world right now. The Fed always balances the politics against the money and economy, but ultimately their loyalty has been to the money and economy. Will the Fed save the dollar regardless of political cost, or will it ride the train all the way off the cliff and die with the country? I don't know the answer to that question. I suspect they will hold to their historical pattern of waiting too long but will ultimately act, even if the federal government enters existential crisis. I sure don't know, though.

154 From the chivalry article at AG:
The good man should go out of his way to protect a woman, and not simply because she happens to be lighter than he is; otherwise we are back in a fog of confusion, wherein we shrug and we say that such a woman in the middle of the riot might, who knows, be stronger than such a man next to her, and by the time we have decided the matter, the damage has been done.

This loses the plot, I think. The unwillingness to leap in and defend the woman in a riot - or to give a seat on a lifeboat to a woman when a ship is sinking - has nothing to do with this. No man in that situation thinks she is stronger than her attacker or more likely to survive. The man in that situation is unwilling to sacrifice himself for her. Nothing more, nothing less. And why should he? He's been told his entire life that women are not special and don't need men and he is an oppressor. Old-fashioned notions of man as defender of woman are patriarchal and cancerous. He is simply taking that argument at face value, albeit not articulating it.

206 Russia has a yuppie class for the first time in its history. Its members work hard for personal gain and enjoy the fruits of western capitalism. But that requires access to markets, which the sanctions program has rudely severed... No profits mean empty stores.

The yuppie class isn't accustomed to being denied. They haven't lived with the deprivation their parents knew so well. Their sudden loss of privilege is a severe shock.


Interesting point. Russia's rulers are accustomed to blind obedience. Modern Russians may not understand the expectation. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.

This headline should shatter Joe 'Full of Malarkey' Biden's life-long, self-projected, tough guy image. Joe's true character is revealed a little more every day he is in office; it is the inverse of how he's portrayed his character and principles to the voters every day he's been in politics.

You are quite smart. Paul is against the idea that faith in Christ would encourage people in sinning. However, he is remarking that the law -as pastor and Biblical expositor David Jeremiah says- only "brings us to the door. It is grace that gets us in door". The problem of sin is dealt with by Christ.

There is no Redemption unless there is a Law that was transgressed against. But once redeemed, the path to happy citizenship in the City of God is no longer just through rigid adherence to the law alone, but through love of the King who wrote the laws.

Follow the first commandment, and understand John 3:16, or else no amount of ticking boxes on a checklist of shalts and shalt nots will lead you to a complete and happy life in the presence of the one who made you. The law doesn't go away, it's replaced with the understanding that no person can avoid being afoul of it in one way or another, which is why Redemption is necessary.

258 The problem with discussing "racism" is that's it's like discussing "illness." "Illness" covers everything from the sniffles to Stage IV pancreatic cancer.

But because the definition of "racism" has been so whored out and obfuscated as to cover everything from being romantically attracted to a blonde to lynching, one never knows when that term is being flung around just what type, or magnitude of "racism" is being referred to.

Worse, the term "racism" has now conflated two, entirely opposite meanings: (1) the use of immutable, racial characteristics to prejudge the attributes of an individual, and (2) failure to incorporate race into assessment of an individual.

No easy solution once the language and its emotional connotations have become so Fd. But I do think that any time a politician is accused of being "racist" the first question should be along the lines of "I have no idea in what sense that term is being used. If you can be more specific I'd be happy to answer."

Same with "transphobic" "homophobic" "voter repression" and a hundred other miasmic terms the left uses like cudgels.

273 Apparently, Russia has been a bit strapped for cash before the invasion.
Most of their new fighter jets have been prototypes with the hope that some foreign country (think Iran, India, Turkey, etc) would make a big order and then they could start production. Same with missiles and electron-warfare stuff. There are only two industries that produce most of the military supplies. This means that most medium to high-tech stuff is pretty thin. The jets, helicopters, anti-aircaft and electronic warfare offerings have fared pretty badly so far in Ukraine, so don't expect a lot of new business for these products. There was a report that China was very disappointed that a helicopter they were going to buy downed so easily.

That doesn't mean there isn't a ungodly supply of artillery shells.

I applaud the plan. However, The Junta cannot let it happen. I expect Merit-less Garland will order the FBI to stop the buses once they cross the Texas border, arrest the driver and any Texas officials on-board for kidnapping, then set the illegals free after giving them the same stuff they'd have gotten if they'd been apprehended by Border Patrol.

90% of Republican Congresscritters voted for it. Something like 75% of Democrat Congresscritters voted for it.

It was pretty much the definition of bipartisan legislation, but Republicans definitionally supported it in greater numbers.

The smarter set try to tie it to Dixiecrats, mostly because of Strom Thurmond. I once stumbled across a leftist looking for help on a forum trying to trace the actual history of Dixiecrats after the nascent 3rd party failed. No one was willing to help mostly because all but Thurmond become Democrats again.

the best one can say about it is that with the entire GOP-e still cheering for open borders, it's a nice surprise that at least he felt it advantageous to pay some lip service to the idea.

346 If you separate the spending bills then yes, serious budget cuts, become easy.

Voting against the VA is going to get you voted out as a Rep. Voting against HUD? HAHAHAHA

Which is why McConnell/McCarthy would never allow it.

I'm not that worried about the actual budget (discretionary spending doesn't drive our debt). I'd see it as a vehicle to hollow out the administrative state, their rulemaking without direct Congressional involvement, and the general anti-liberty aspect of the whole thing.

353 No more, "we can't vote against the whole thing because then Defense won't get any money and they'll have to do a bake sale". Instead, "Fine, here's all the money for the Pentagon to waste through their graft. Now, separately, let's half the budget of the Department of Education for lulz."

Exactly. Harry didn't even send up budgets because it was better for Obatears and the libs to just keep spending whatever they wanted.

But wouldn't the "shutdown" in that situation only apply to that one department that was the subject of the funding bill? (i.e., the Department of Education, in the example?)

Restoring regular budgetary order would be a good thing, but I don't think Congress is capable of it anymore. The leadership has learned how to consolidate power into a handful of people at the top, and won't agree to devolve power back to the committee chairs.

My wife follows some Facebook group which is about a hardcore (D) town near us. A lot of bitching and moaning about traffic, lack of parking, parking tickets, and new construction only making matters worse. But do they mention the arrival of millions across our southern border exasperating conditions?

Yeah. I don't see the next Congress doing it at all. They'll have the power, plead poverty, and fundraise. It's the reality of the situation.

The bigger hope is to continue the ground up rebuild of the GOP at the state level.

Get rid of the Omnibus bills. Send up each bill spelled out in detail so that the Libs have to vote against the rational ones and pResident has to veto.

Yeah. Start with departmental budgets and appropriations bills. No CR. No one bill for the whole federal government.

No more, "we can't vote against the whole thing because then Defense won't get any money and they'll have to do a bake sale". Instead, "Fine, here's all the money for the Pentagon to waste through their graft. Now, separately, let's half the budget of the Department of Education for lulz."

Ryan didn't fully go back to regular order budget and appropriations bills when he became Speaker, and I doubt McCarthy will, either. Also, I think the other party has to play the regular order game to some extent or it can't be done per current House and Senate Rules. I could be wrong.

If the GOP re-takes the House, it can write the House rules for the next Congress. Pelosi did this to maximize her power against the Trump admin.

The Senate is another matter, but even the House following regular order would be a good start.

It's even worse... my little town, large in square miles, has successfully set aside 40% of it's area to never be developed. It has been funded by a taxpayer approved initiative. The lefty town, now running out of room looks to *my* town to buy up their small parcels left undeveloped at exorbitant prices.
