The Morning Report — 7/26/22

Good morning, kids. Tuesday and while on the one hand you have the utterly absurd in bloated fraud Bill Kristol touting, of all people, John Legend as the one to replace Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants (Kristol actually referred to him as "our Zelensky" which only underscores the joke considering the Ukie prexy is proving to be a multi-billion dollar scam artist just like S-B S-P), we still have innocent American citizens rotting virtually incommunicado as political prisoners, persecuted/prosecuted as "insurrectionists" by the very people who actually committed insurrection in the theft of the 2020 election. As their lives are ruined, some understandably plead out to coerced forced confessions. Under pressure like that, yet another decent victim of this tyranny has taken his own life.

Last week, Mark Aungst of South Williamsport, PA committed suicide, according to the Coroner Charles E. Kiessling Jr.
Aungst, a gas field well service technician, traveled to Washington D.C. on January 6, 2021, to attend the “Stop the Steal” rally organized by supporters of President Donald Trump. After the rally, Aungst joined thousands of others in marching to the U.S. Capitol.
He did not attack any police officers or engage in any violence. He did not destroy or damage any property in the U.S. Capitol.
Aungst entered the building twice and walked around. Along with co-defendant Tammy Bronsburg, Aungst took images and videos on a cell phone. According to federal prosecutors, he committed the misdemeanor crime of “parading or demonstrating inside a restricted building. . . "
. . . As of several weeks ago, 855 Trump supporters had been arrested by U.S. Department of Justice officials for their involvement in the activities of January 6, 2021. Of that group, 300 have pleaded guilty to criminal conduct and 80 have been imprisoned.
Many of those prisoners have not been convicted in court and have been denied their basic due process rights. These prisoners have also made disturbing reports of mistreatment, assault, and the denial of basic human rights such as medical care. Their prison accommodations have been described as the “D.C. gulag.”
This travesty of justice must end. Republicans in Congress must demand this tyrannical persecution of the participants in the January 6th protests cease before more Americans are jailed or killed.
Unfortunately, this horrific abuse of Trump supporters by the Department of Justice has been mostly ignored by Republican lawmakers. Only a handful, such as U.S. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA), have advocated for better treatment of these defendants. . .
. . . The January 6th protesters are being treated worse than terrorists at Gitmo or the Antifa hooligans who committed 574 violent riots in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd. In those riots, 2,000 police officers were injured, at least six people were killed, and there was billions of dollars in property damage as buildings were ransacked and destroyed nationwide.

Whatever the hell else is going on, vis a vis the intentional, wanton destruction of our economy, borders, national security, culture and society, the fact is we now have political prisons and kangaroo courts. We have degenerated to the very thing thousands of our forebears gave their lives to prevent: lawlessness, the will to power and the hateful nature of tyrants using and really abusing our laws as a tool of political repression. $6.00 a gallon gasoline should piss you off, but what happened to these people and is still happening to scores more is the bitter end. Or it should be.

As the author noted, the complete lack of support from the GOP is a huge tell as to the state of play. No one expects frauds and globalist flunkies like Graham, Romney and Murkowski to say anything, but when Ted Cruz and Rand Paul remain silent, and worse, praise the Capitol Cops who assassinated Ashli Babbitt and Roseanne Boyland, well, you get the picture. Say what you want about Marjorie Taylor Green, but she gets my respect for taking a stand.

If electoral politics still matters in bringing about change, and that situation is still very much in doubt given what the martyrs mentioned above came to DC on 1/6/21 to protest in the first place, then the GOP as it is led and funded right now must be dismantled and filled with Marjorie Taylor Greens, Ron DeSantises and Donald Trumps in every position.

On a personal note, a big thanks to all the well-wishers on the move. Now, to settle in and make the adjustment which no doubt is a lifetime process. At least doing this every day keeps the routine going.

30 Saints of the Day
St. Anne and St. Joachim (1st c. B.C.) are the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the maternal grandparents of Jesus. It is believed that St. Joachim and St. Anne, although wealthy, lived a devout and simple life of voluntary poverty, chastity, and generosity to the poor. According to legend, after long years of suffering from infertility and praying for a child, Joachim and Anne were each separately visited by an angel in their old age, who announced that they would give birth to a very special child. It was from their holy and chaste marriage that the Immaculate Conception was brought into the world. According to tradition, when the Child Mary was three years old, they dedicated her to God and presented her to live in the Jerusalem temple until the time of her betrothal to St. Joseph. St. Anne is the patroness of unmarried women, wives, expectant mothers, pregnancy, women in labor, grandmothers, childless couples, and against poverty and sterility. Women praying to meet their future spouse often turn to St. Anne. St. Joachim is the patron of fathers and grandfathers. Their feast day is July 26th.

62 No one expects frauds and globalist flunkies like Graham, Romney and Murkowski to say anything, but when Ted Cruz and Rand Paul remain silent, and worse, praise the Capitol Cops who assassinated Ashli Babbitt and Roseanne Boyland, well, you get the picture.

This x1000, JJ. Cruz and Paul ought to be thrown out of the GOP (or whatever party replaces it) and told to FOAD.

And before I hear the usual, "one bad call and you want to toss them?", allow me to point out that this is a hell of a lot more than "one bad call." Cruz and Paul not only accepted, without question, the Democrat lie of an 'insurrection,' but put themselves on record praising the very people who set up this false flag and murdered Americans who believed in the lie that they had the right to assemble to protest an unlawful regime.

Cruz and Paul failed their basic duty as representatives, and for their backstabbing, they are no better than Liz Cheney and ought to be treated as the traitors they are.

I call AAA, but as I'm hanging up the state DOTD tow truck fellow pulls up behind me. He jacks up the car, swaps the tires and bolts everything down. I air up the space-saver spare to the 60 lbs. it needs, and am on my way in about 10 minutes. (Yes, I make sure to cancel the AAA service call.)

I'm old enough to remember when Cruz's campaign was primarily on how hard he "will fight for you". I guess no one bothered to ask him what "fight for you" might look like. Clearly fighting for the release of political prisoners and the large swath of the Constitution that is being violated to terrorize these poor people isn't part of that fight profile.

It looks like he's in the clear with the local DA and cops, but there's always the feds. And then the possibility of a civil suit from the murderer's family, frivolous as that may sound.

199 ||At least 21 people have died and 30 others are ill after drinking altered liquor in western India, officials said Tuesday. The deaths occurred in Ahmedabad and Botad districts of Gujarat state, where manufacturing, sale and consumption of liquor are prohibited.

Thus, there is no reason to panic, no reason to impose heavy surveillance of the infected population, no reason to spend gobs of money aggressively researching these strains. COVID has evolved like all previous new flu strains, becoming nothing more than a cold. Right now, the general response from doctors should be, “Take two aspirins and drink a lot of water.”

And yet, the journal Science sees no reason to mention this fundamental fact, that Omicron and the new strains are harmless. Instead, it publishes a screed designed to instill fear (“As Omicron rages!”

276 "America first" is too close to American nationalism and that's no different than Nazis.

The abject ignorance of history is a real problem.

The NAZIs actually weren't actually particularly nationalistic in the traditional sense. Seriously. What mattered to Hitler, was not the country and people of Germany, but the made up "Aryan people" which included Scandies, Austrians, and the like. And did NOT include traditional German core cultural values like Christianity. Seriously - compare the very nationalistic Germany of WWI with the regime of WWII.

Now, at the same time you know what countries embraced good old fashioned nationalism? France, the USSR (as Russians), Britain, and....THE US.

The sad thing is, they will be treated well. We all know this.

A Governor Poppins would bring the FLNG to their houses the moment they entered the door, drag them out in cuffs, throw them on a military transport, dump them off at the border and tell them they will be shot as trespassers if they ever set foot in FL again.

And then, live video presser while personally setting a match to their gasoline-soaked properties.

That's hard to figure.

I don't think it's making nearly the kind of money they had expected from the streaming future. Mulan went premium streaming, and they made a quarter of a billion dollars in a week. And then there were diminishing returns. You'll notice that all the big tentpoles have exclusive theatrical windows again. That's not because streaming was making them too much money.

That sort of entertainment is expensive, and streaming alone couldn't support it. So, is Disney+ losing money? My guess would be no because the balance sheet has been shifted so that the costs of the big movies aren't on D+, but it's not a money machine.

It wouldn't be "giving it back" since the Federal Govm't has owned the land since before those States were created. That's how the situation came about. It's also why Texas is one of the few western (well, southwestern) States where the Feds own almost nothing.

I don't think there's ever going to be a "winner" in the streaming wars. We'll get a handful of services that people mercilessly sign up for and cancel repeatedly to get their fix of whatever show they want at the time.

Disney+ will be around for as long as Disney wants it. If they can balance out the money from theaters with keeping families signed up by providing wanted, cheap content as well as their huge library, it should be able to sustain itself.

The more interesting thing is Netflix becoming just another studio. They've already talked about exclusive theatrical windows of 45 days for new movies coming up.

431 "Illegal aliens are welcomed aboard airliners - using arrest warrants for ID."

Brandon plans to fix this. Your outrage meter will go off-scale when you read this from Daily Mail:

"Kevin McCarthy said President Joe Biden continues to implement policies that make it 'easier' for illegal immigrants to come to the U.S. as the administration works to roll out a program providing I.D. cards to migrants.

'During the worst border crisis in history, the Biden administration is now handing out ID cards to illegal migrants to make it easier to travel throughout the United States,' the House Minority leader told DailyMail.com.

'This is the exact opposite of what he should be doing,' McCarthy added.

The Biden administration plans to launch an initiative giving temporary I.D. cards to migrants awaiting decisions on their immigration proceedings so they can more easily access services and government benefits.

Illegal immigrants and asylum-seeking migrants awaiting final decisions on their cases often have difficulty getting housing, healthcare and transportation without identification cards.

The Left will impeach Trump over a phone call. The GOP in the Senate pretty much told Trump: "Here are the terms of your surrender to the GOP-e". It appears they came to a negotiated deal.

And that is why the DOJ stayed under the control of the Deep State, money and budget deficits still flowed like milk and honey, and not a single program department or agency was ever in fear of any cutbacks or reform.

So yeah. That is how it works until We The People end that game (not likely).

The problem is the Dems have a lot of money so they are able to target a wider audience.

492 I have F&F on in the background right now, and just saw a Dem ad running. (they'll take money from anyone!) Still, it was comical in that it was the most incompetent political ad I've ever scene. It was an anti-MAGA ad that looked exactly like something you would have thought the Babylon Bee had put together. It was absolutely that ridiculous - it made me laugh.

494 Netflix dropped "The Gray Man" into theaters at the same time it premiered on streaming.

So, I guess they're playing with the HBOmax gambit to go with limited theatrical exclusivity.

"The Gray Man" clearly had a bigger budget, better but not great writing, and more big stars than their usual fare.

I think this is a smarter way to get the overseas bucks. And probably, people who don't want Netflix but want to see a particular movie.

That also guarantees that the Election Night 3 am fraud will continue until the last election - which might be in November of this year. The same people with a vested interest in keeping their jobs are probably the same people with the knowledge to take a flash drive into a back office and 'adjust' the results.

I don't think that's quite what he said. Actually... he did not say anything of the sort. His current inner circle is mulling over ways to hamstring 50K or so mid-level federal officials that were responsible for derailing the MAGA agenda during his term. They are federal employees in "policy management" positions that currently have many protections from being fired. See "Schedule F" on the interwebs.

507 Democratic Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, who sponsored a bill to ban corporations from operating PACs, has repeatedly emphasized he does not and will not “take a dime of corporate PAC money.” However, Kelly’s campaign has raked in around $154,000 from Democratic PACs since March 2019 that have hauled in large sums from corporate PACs, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) records reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

That ad is not targeted for groups like the Horde. It is targeted for Dems and Independents now watching Fox, especially Tucker's show. The Dems want to coerce or shame them into returning to the plantation. If no one is watching CNNMSNBC, the Dem propagandists will advertise on what is being watched by their runaway slaves.

522 I know this is a lightening rod, but the people that entered the Capitol on J6 really fucked things up. After all this time I still struggle to see what they thought they were going to accomplish. I get being pissed off. I get that they probably had no real idea what was going on vis-a-vis the FBI, CPD, et al false flag setup... but they sure as f**k should have thought things through. Who would benefit from a riot? Trump? No. Besides them and their families, Trump ended up being the next biggest loser.

I am NOT saying that these people deserve what is happening to them and I am as incensed by the Dems, Garland, the judges, and all the rest of the cast of villains as any of you. What I am saying is that they played right into the hands of the Deep State Satans and their snap decision to was their downfall.

What they did by entering was dumb - in hindsight.

Consider that a) they were unarmed and peaceful if not perhaps boisterous and - crucially - they were INVITED IN by the Capitol Cops who told them to be respectful.

They were dumb but only in the sense of trusting the police who gave them permission. No one "stormed the gates" as it were.

So there you have it.
