The Morning Report — 8/12/22

conversationantifa.jpg

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and a story out of my erstwhile hometown has some relevance to the situation we find ourselves in. A buck naked homeless derelict was just strolling through the City Hall subway station the other morning, as commuters walked by like it was nothing. So, what's worse, the naked guy or the non-reaction from the crowd? In the season 2 premiere of the podcast (sidebar and here), CBD posited his concern that like the jaded straphangers, by this November and certainly two years from now, the American people will have become so inured to the economic destruction visited upon them that they're just not going to remember the Gestapo raid on Mar-a-Lago, let alone the theft of the 2020 election. My personal fear is that the American people will have become inured to an increasingly tyrannical government that when the FBI come for their neighbors, they'll just keep their heads down, draw the shades and turn up the volume of The Kardashians to drown out the screams and cries until the sirens fade away.

Whatever one postulates on the reasons behind the raid — the FBI looking to plant evidence, looking for the evidence about its treasonous acts in overthrowing Trump, creating a photo op, or merely sniffing Melania's panties and whacking off to it — this is absolutely unprecedented in the history of this nation. FDR's roundup of Nisei Americans and throwing them into concentration camps is up there, to be sure. But this is an outrage. Meh, why am I getting so worked up about it? I mean, what do you expect from people who will openly and proudly use their power to persecute their political enemies? They literally destroyed our society in 2020 under the pretext of a public health emergency and then the death of a criminal at the hands of police officers doing their duty to create chaos that ultimately undermined our electoral system so as to enable the rigging/theft of a national election.

Did Joe "Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants" know about or even give the go-ahead to Lavrenty Garland and Fey Wray for the raid? Hell, Joey doesn't even know the time of day and shakes hands with the air, but go back to the Halcyon days after the 2010 midterms. Did Barack Obama know that Lois Lerner, John Koskinen and the rest of the IRS, now "fortified" (pun intended) to be bigger than the United States Marine Corps, were going to do everything in their power to sabotage the granting of 501-c3 non-profit status to any political group that was not Democrat or Leftist, specifically any that were affiliated with the Tea Party movement? The salient point is that it didn't matter, the same as it didn't matter if whoever is controlling the drooling paste-eater-in-chief out of Kalorama knew of or gave the order to hit Mar-a-Lago.

White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre had a pre-written response at the ready for when she would inevitably be asked this week whether President Joe Biden had any advance notice that the FBI would be raiding Donald Trump’s home in Florida.

She said no, and that’s probably true. She also repeated the line that the Justice Department works independently. That’s probably true too. And that’s what’s so terrifying.

Democrats and the permanent bureaucracy in Washington are simply following their vindictive impulses. If there’s anything new here, it’s their view that gaining power in 2020 was a license to crush the political momentum that put Trump in office and continues to upset the establishment that preferred things the old way — when their interests were served and to hell with everyone else. . .

. . . The same way Democrats never have to tell the media to write each day that Republicans suck, Biden doesn’t need to tell his Attorney General Merrick Garland or the FBI what to do. He didn’t need to say a word to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. They don’t have private conversations on how they’re next going to stick it to the people they hate. They have a common understanding and, besides, they talk about it in public anyway.

“Is anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future?” — Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, three days after the 2020 election.

“[Trump] must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.” — Democrat Rep. Jim McGovern in June.

“Merrick Garland Do Your Job!” — Democrat Rep. Hank Johnson in June.

When this is how the party talks openly about its opposition, there’s no need for any kind of private direction or assurance. They want everyone to know.

There's also the parallel question of whether or not they understand that Donald Trump is innocent of any crimes, and more to the point, that those who support his agenda and more broadly those who support the ideals of America as founded are also not guilty. At the highest levels, they don't give a shit. It's purely will to power. On the broader level, they are, as the great Eric Hoffer labeled them "true believers." They are so absolutely sure of their righteousness and our evil, that anything is on the table to achieve justice or paradise on Earth. "By any means necessary."

On the belt buckle of every Nazi soldier in the Second World War was the inscription Gott Mit Uns, "God is with us." "To Serve and Protect" and "Fidelity, Bravery, Integrity" also have a nice ring to them, n'est pas?

Whatever the 11-dimensional chess that the junta is engaging in to either goad Trump into running thinking he'll get crushed, or more likely to goad a Trump supporter into committing an act of violence that can be used as a pretext to really seize absolute power — and given the nature of the FBI they can just manufacture a false flag quicker than you can say Gleiwitz Radio Station — the salient point remains that this latest abomination will not be the end of it. Along with the additional IRS agents who are not going to be auditing anyone except non-Democrats and punishing them via the process, every other apparatchik in every other agency is going to harass the living shit out of us until we cry Uncle Joe.

So where does this leave us going forward? It's either Balkanization or a civil war that leads to liberation or subjugation. If somehow we are to liberate ourselves from this tyranny, there will still be a sizable group in this country of true believers that will never accept it.

It took the U.S. to forcibly dismantle the Nazi systems of Germany and to force Japan to remake their systems.

It may take another, more powerful nation to disband our totalitarian systems, as well. Barring the return of Christ, it might just have to be Russia or China to make our Deep State agencies go the way of the Cheka, the Stasi, and the God-Emperors of Japan.

No President can do this. It's too entrenched. Overwhelming force must be applied, and no President, not even the most Trumpian, has that kind of force.

So when I get black-pilled and told Russia is fighting the American Empire of Lies, I can only wish them Godspeed, for we obviously share the same enemy. Putin's fighting the American Deep State? My answer? "Good! At least someone is."

  • "Retrenchment has begun on the right. Bereft of a figure like Donald Trump, the right is now moving back toward various old, hollow positions. There is hard work being done to shift the political and intellectual foundation of the right by figures such as Oren Cass, but the inertia has not yet been overcome."
    The Realignment That Failed
  • "The majority of the scientists behind the paper identifying the virus are affiliated with Chinese Communist Party-run scientific institutions, which are notorious for their ties to the regime’s military efforts and biological warfare programs."

  • Glenn Reynolds: "Looking around, it seems pretty clear that this isn’t a problem just for BlackRock and the Democrat Party. All over America — and to a substantial degree, the world — institutions seem to be run on behalf of the people who control them rather than to support their missions or the people they’re supposed to serve."

Everything is an Op.
Everything is bullshit.

Having said that, I think the baseline of all of this boils down to, the Junta/Deep State/Uniparty view Trump as illegitimate, full stop.

He is not to be afforded the honor, perks or deference that other former Presidents are granted, full stop.

He had documents they did not want him to have and by G-d he will will not have them, so they raided his home and took them.

This "does Joe know" stuff reminds me of the ongoing debate during the Obama years -- "Is he a stupid failure or is he intentionally destroying everything?"

I don;t care how broken-brained Joe is, he has been in DC for 40+ and all that time he's been a bully and a jerk, throwing his weight around (see: Tomas hearings). Of course he knew. Trump was mocking and threatening his dear son Hunter for over a year, threatening to expose the ugly underbelly of the Biden pay-to-play business. I bet they had to talk Joe out of ordering this in his first week as POTUS.

This is who the Democrats are, this is who've they've been for many years (remember Ted Kennedy plotting with Russia against Reagan, or John Kerry working with Communists and later Iran?). They are not backing into any of this unintentionally, they are revealing themselves.

22 "Jonah Goldberg makes a lot of 'belief' in our country. But what Goldberg actually believes in is the Beltway." (Liberal Fascism wasn't a warning; it was a love letter - jjs)

That book wasn't so much interesting, as the reaction to it hear was. I read a book and saw, in part, a guy really, really trying to make a subtle case in more than one place that Hillary Clinton's biggest flaw was that she just cared too damn much. The words were right there, in black in white.

But because Ace hadn't signaled the group yet that Jonah was on the outs, I can't tell you how many people argued with me on that. Even though the words were there in black and white, for several pages.

23 In a recent interview, Special Inspector General John Sopko noted that his office was aware of the, "close to $800 million that we've spent in Afghanistan since the collapse of the government last August".

"I guess people don't realize that," he told reporters. "And I think people should realize that."

=================
The only reason the number isn't orders of magnitude larger than this is that the junta is having problems finding out who to pay.

The Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) estimated that 70-90% of the new “revenue” from new audits would come from those making under $200,000. They should take “$206 billion over the 2022-31 budget window.”

Thomas Barthold, Chief of Staff of the JCT, wrote, “As the table shows, MORE THAN HALF of the assessed amounts are estimated to come from taxpayers with reported income between zero and $50,000.”

67 ||The former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich [...]

"I am happy to have a debate with people like Max Boot who are the apologists for a failed anti-American establishment which has year after year failed the American people, failed to defend our interests, failed to win wars, failed to reform the bureaucracies, failed to educate our children, people like Max Boot are in fact the representatives of a dying system, and as it starts to die, it grows more desperate," Gingrich told Fox News host Laura Ingraham on Wednesday night.

Gingrich went on to say what he believes is the truth behind Democrat leadership pushing for this raid.

"And what you saw last night at Mar-a-Lago was the desperation of a national machine that knows it's on the edge of being defeated and then being eliminated," he added. "And I think you’ll see more desperation in the weeks to come."||

And that's why the quote you end with is so important. There can be no restoration of liberty is this land that leaves "a sizable group of true believers" whether that's the deep state, the politicians that enable them, the corporate board rooms that do their bidding, or the academicians that program their voters, much less those voters themselves. They all have to go. And Anericans have thusfar shown no interest in even contemplating that, much less acting.

So it will almost certainly have to be Russian/Chinese nukes, or Christ's return.

134 So where does this leave us going forward? It's either Balkanization or a civil war that leads to liberation or subjugation.
++++
The power of "and" isn't off the table. It is also a partial answer to your opening question:

So, what's worse, the naked guy or the non-reaction from the crowd? ... CBD posited his concern that like the jaded straphangers, ... the American people will have become so inured ...

This is what leads to the power of "and." Much of that crowd - probably the majority - is inured. They will indeed keep their heads down when the Gestapo comes. Some of that crowd, though, was not inured. They outwardly had no reaction, but internally they did. So how does a man in that category express himself?

He leaves. He flees. He goes somewhere with the possibility of normality. The amount of internal population movement is enormous and potentially destructive. If the fleeing people are refugees who learned their lesson, we will get Balkanization. If they are colonists who have learned nothing, we will get general compliance everywhere.

I guess it depends on how you define defeat. If you define defeat as "the loss of the Republic" then yes, defeat has been achieved. That is done. America's fourth republic has fallen.

What comes next, however, is still an active battle. It won't be what it was. It might be more or less bad, but that remains to be seen.

I know this writer is trying to make a point but they are stretching the bounds of credulity. Of course it's more terrifying if they are working in concert and allowed to get away with it and call it business as usual.

Independent people would have the excuse or plausibility they are merely trying to do the right thing. Even as ideologues they may one day see the error of their ways or have their mind changed. But people working "together" in this kind of system would know they are corrupt and, like any criminal, believe they are justified and would fight to the death to protect it.

180 There's also the parallel question of whether or not they understand that Donald Trump is innocent of any crimes, and more to the point, that those who support his agenda and more broadly those who support the ideals of America as founded are also not guilty.

Needless to say, this is where the "banality of evil" part comes into play: the prosecution process will wreck the lives of political opponents and the question of guilt or innocence will not matter.

Well here it is: An Issue of National Security.

Obviously, Garland blatantly lied when he said that law and ethics prevent him from stating the purpose of conducting such an intrusive search & seizure (raid) on Trump's residence.
But had he wanted to: he could have pinned the shriveled fig leaf of an excuse that Issues of National Security prevented him from doing so.
But he can't do that, if the search warrant didn't target such materials.

Seems our best hope is still electing state and local American patriots, as well as a larger coalition of anti-communists in DC.

Globalists did seem intent on a (proxy for now) war with Russia, but they are still enriching China, and generally spewing their propaganda. But that may all be more distraction than anything. We made the oligarchs so rich, and TARP and the trillions thrown in to "save the markets" goes almost directly into doubling their riches again.

But the Trump raid along with 87,000 IRS agents hired for willingness to kill harms them politically, if elections are at least marginally free. And recent SCOTUS decisions are favorable to reducing federal control.

The raid on Mar-a-lago doesn't provoke me, it didn't even surprise me. I will not be provoked or surprised if and when they arrest Trump before or after an election, assassinate Trump, arrest MAGA candidates before or after an election. I will not be surprised or provoked if they steal anymore elections. I expect it because I accept what they are. The left tell us every f'ing day who they are, what their intentions are and follow through with action.

If I was ever provoked to the point of doing something it was two years ago watching antifa and BLM in street intersections pointing guns at peoples heads and or beating the shit out of people with LEO standing right there watching and not doing a f'ing thing.

And Joe ordered the raid on Trump because he's paranoid. He believes the latest attacks on Hunter are coming from Trump. He knows there is more, much worse.

The 1st story was Biden didn't know. The 2nd added that it was was not approved by management. Now we have the 3rd story that Garland approved it w/o involving Biden.

The only constant is that each new story insulates Joe. Also, note well, the pretext in each variation is flimsy because it has to be plausible it's low-level enough to NOT involve Joe. But serious enough to raid?

Assume they don't. Assume that Trump had them and that they were still active and valid. Further assume that, once this discovered, the armed forces still did nothing to adjust launch procedures or authentication. This is preposterous, but roll with it.

Now ask yourself a question: does it matter? What can he do with them? Is there a cabal of Trump loyalists with fingers on buttons, unable to launch against declared Trump enemies only because they cannot get authorization?

If so, then the only reason that atomic hellfire wasn't unleashed is because Trump hesitated to use his illicit launch codes. Fore more than for two straight years. This is a mighty vote of confidence in the security and integrity of America's nuclear arsenal, isn't it?

These people are insane.

You are correct. This is called The Coward's Fallacy, and it goes like this - "You must not stand up to tyranny, or you'll only make it worse for the rest of us."

Tyranny is never justified. If you murdered 1,000,000 babies with an AR-15 today, it would not justify the tyranny of confiscating mine tomorrow (he said AR-15 GLOWY!!!).

The tyrant doesn't need an excuse. He's already doing it, or he'll lie and make up an excuse. Either way, those who enable tyranny through their cowardice are just as bad as the tyrant.

252 It took Garland and his DOJ three days to come up with that tepid, empty non-explanation as to why they raided a former president's (and current political opponent's) residence.

Isn't obvious that they would have LOVED to have declared that they can't even say why because of issues of National Security?
Hell yes, they would have!!

The fact they didn't causes me to strongly believe that planting evidence (and thereby fabricating a crime scene at Trump's Maralago compound) is too tall an order for them.
Oh they'd do it if they thought they could get away with it. But then, they would have done that during the bogus Muller investigation also.
Planting evidence is a tall order indeed - and extremely risky for everyone involved.

My personal fear is that the American people will have become inured to an increasingly tyrannical government that when the FBI come for their neighbors, they'll just keep their heads down, draw the shades and turn up the volume of The Kardashians to drown out the screams and cries until the sirens fade away.

If they're smart - and that's a big open question - they won't do this. Let the bloggers with followings be and allow them to continue unmolested.

Instead, go after their followers. Audit the commenters and readers. They'll talk to each other. They'll find that they and their gray box friends are being audited frequently and the occasional trip to places like DU will show that they are *not* being audited. Most of the audience will then probably drift away. Too risky to be an online conservative anymore. The money starts drying up for lack of audience and the blogs just fade away.

307 L.A. J. Paul Getty Museum returning ancient sculptures and other works illegally exported from Italy, dug up in the '70s. [BTW, I'm glad to see that Australia's ABC doesn't use the BCE nonsense.]

||According to the museum, the Getty will return a nearly life-size group of Greek terra-cotta sculptures -- known as Orpheus and the Sirens -- believed to date from the fourth century BC. [...]

In addition to the repatriation of the three sculptures, the museum also is working with Italy's Ministry of Culture to arrange the return of four other objects at a future date.

Those include a "colossal marble head of a divinity" and a stone mould for casting pendants, both from the second century AD, along with an Etruscan bronze incense burner from the fourth century BC and a 19th century painting by Camillo Miola entitled Oracle at Delphi, the Getty said.||

319 The raid on Mar-a-lago doesn't provoke me, it didn't even surprise me. I will not be provoked or surprised if and when they arrest Trump before or after an election, assassinate Trump, arrest MAGA candidates before or after an election. I will not be surprised or provoked if they steal anymore elections. I expect it because I accept what they are. The left tell us every f'ing day who they are, what their intentions are and follow through with action.

I've been saying a variant of this for a long time. It's why Legal Insurrection's immediate go-to of "don't do anything, it's what they want!" pisses me off so much. If we're not supposed to 'do anything' when the fucking FBI raids the home of a former president, armed to the teeth and demanding any recording devices be turned off, then when the hell are we supposed to do something?

You know what would wake the damned left up? A nationwide work strike. A literal million man march. A congress that immediatly shuts everything down (no votes, no quorums, no anything). But no. All we get are feeble calls not to fight back and baby dicks like McCarthy threatening to call an investigation.

Then when the rubber met the road, she revealed who she is.

good point. Also, we do not have a justice system with a "double standard". We have criminals attacking their (innocent) political foes under color of law. And we have the just-us system doing fake investigations on the obviously guilty to cover up the crimes.

This is the mafia burning out a business, or beating its owner, for resisting protection money payments. Done openly "as an example to the others".

Any effective efforts to stop the junta is met with FBI infiltration and false flag ops. My guess is Proud Boys and others (Tea Party) were seen as threats so had to be infiltrated and destroyed from within. Efforts to save historic statues are made into KKK hate groups. and so on.

Claiming the White House has no control over DoJ criminal and civil investigations is BS posturing. It lets the Democrats take the moral high ground for public consumption, and it provides plausible deniability for everything the White House orders DoJ to do.

It also positions the Dems to scream Corruption! during a Republican Admin, when they plant rumors that Trump or whomever is pressuring DoJ to do something.

It's a huge task changing the codes, especially since our nuke armed subs have to be updated too. Perhaps that is why Billy C neglected to mention to the Pentagon that he lost his code card for around 2 months; during that time period, there could be no armed and operational nukes.

410 Again, consider the dog that didn't bark yesterday.

Garland would've loved to say that he can't reveal probable cause for the raid on Trump's home because of National Security issues. (It would have been bullshit, but he would have loved to have given that excuse.)

The chances of the FBI attempting to plant document-evidence are very low --- because such efforts are extremely convoluted and to tends to get found out. Oh, they'd love to do it. But they dare not because it will only make their disastrous miscalculation exponentially worse.

I think they expected the GOPe establishment to largely (if tacitly) nod along in agreement. Thankfully that didn't happen.

Force them to have a moment of pause, reflection and what could potentially happen if they keep the shit up. We did nothing of the sort. The left noticed we did nothing so it's full steam ahead. Every time we think they've f'ed up and something might backfire on them they double down. I'm sure they'll double down with something after this Mar-a-lago theater.

424 I found out long ago that their Tories are essentially our Democrats. There is no real analogy between their supposed parties and our supposed parties.

OTOH when looked at through the proper lens, a party that just wants slightly less communism and to increase the divide by enriching the top, blasting the borders wide open, and pushing the white working class down does describe our Republican Party to a tee.

So the only difference between any of the parties is the dose of communism they want to give you, how fast and for what they intend to bankrupt the country and purge its wealth, and when and whether they bother draping themselves in any kind of patriotic nationalism.

466 Saint of the Day
St. Jeanne (Jane) Frances de Chantal (1572--1641) was born in Dijon, France. At the age of twenty-one she married a baron and together they had six children. She was strong in her faith, giving alms to the poor, and skillfully managing her household. After seven years of marriage, her husband was killed in an accident. To protect the estate for her children, she was obliged to live with her ill-tempered father-in-law for seven years. When she was thirty-two she met St. Francis de Sales, whom she had previously seen in a vision after praying for a spiritual director. At the age of forty-five, after meeting her family obligations, she and St. Francis founded a religious institute for women, the Congregation of the Visitation. The Visitation sisters accepted women who were rejected from other religious orders due to age or illness. They were notable for their charitable works. Aristocrats and the nobility flocked to Jeanne de Chantal's reception-room to seek her counsel. She underwent great trials, including the deaths of many of her close family and friends. She established eighty-six Visitation Houses at the time of her death.

467 Ok so I've slept on it and processed everything and here is where I am. Whatever their lie is, they have a good one cooked up. It has been in the works some time.

The raid made sure that the new lie will get sufficient attention.

If they just held a simple press conference to announce, their lie it would get no traction. But a raid makes it juicy and focuses the world's attention on it.

I fully believe it is related to "nuclear" and that that was the plan all along. They have made "nuclear" a big deal this last six months and I've wondered why.

I also believe now that there will be no charges or arrest. Just a lot of swirling innuendo and years long investigation. Which will have the dual effect of eventually seriously disappointing and enraging the leftards who think their own "Durham is Coming".

Exactly. Trump's staff was in constant communication with authorities, had already handed over documents the fibbies wanted more secure, had built a secure room to their specifications for others (and given the fibtards a key, which they lost), and repeatedly said "just ask" if anything else needed doing.

Instead, Mar-A-Lago got Garlanded. For the state terror/intimidation value.

Liz Cheney publicly said the J6 Committee setup by Pelosi was looking for a way to charge Trump with a crime(s) or otherwise "disqualify" him from running. She also said anyone whom was endorsed by Trump or was a political supporter should be ousted from their seat or disqualified from running.

Whether the committee has the teeth to pull either of those off is debatable, but it does appear others have taken the "suggestions" from them seriously.

Interesting point.

But we'll know if the FBI/DOJ are going to attempt to frame Trump for an intentional breach of National Security.
Suddenly the FBI will descend back upon Mara Lago and secure the ENTIRE compound as sensitive crime scene with National Security implications.
In all seriousness, they'd have to be sure that the site didn't contain other top secret materials hidden in the walls or buried underground.
Again, that's VERY tall order. They'd love to pull it off. But I don't think they'll try.

533 >>I remember all the outrage here at what those two did. Time and subsequent events have changed a few perspectives.

Assange knows who gave him the wikileaks files. He could have stopped the Russia hoax in it's tracks in 2016 but he refused to give it up.

He ruined a lot of lives and put the country through hell for nothing. I'm not all that sympathetic.

534 Brian Sicknick, the Capitol Police Officer whose death was NOT caused by the January 6 "Insurrection", sent a text message to a colleague during the event saying that he believed AntiFa was responsible responsible breaking the windows at the Capitol building.

*begins holding breath, waiting for the MSM to pile right onto this story*

and that's what sets us apart, we're able to modify our views as new information comes in.

but you're right. i was pissed and thought they should hang. I'm still thinking they should. BUT, with everything that's been revealed in the intervening years, i'm thinking there's a LOT of people that should...

537 @477 GnuBreed-Yes, that was done.....one time. I'm talking about a coordinated effort of many at various locations. I'm not talking camping out at the White House where you can be ignored. I'm talking about being camped out at tech CEO's frontwards. Camped out in front of Zuckerbergs front yard. Camped out in front of CNN headquarters, etc, etc. The left has laid out a pretty good template for us to follow. At this point, though I think the time has passed, its all we got minus the lefts violence.

Buffet seems to be one of the first music guys to get into merchandising. I assume he owns his own music, which IIRC was how Led Zeppelin broke the mold and amassed real wealth.

539 496 The Nuclear Code narrative is going to be dragged out by the MSM/Democrat party just like they've done on the Trump/Russia, Russia Russia for the past 6 yrs.
This was the whole point of the raid.

Posted by: redridinghood at August 12, 2022 09:26 AM (NpAcC)


Yeah. I foresee Garland claiming the FBI received info that Trump has COPIES of super-top secret materials, copies made so he could reminisce about events or subjects. (And to send to Putin.)

545 Garland pretty much fell on his sword yesterday, given the early noise about Garland wasn’t involved in “the final decision to green-light the raid”. It's possible that Wray and Garland (and their staffs) talked about a raid, but Wray decided when to go.
Yesterday, Garland could have maintained that niche truth, but decided it would probably leak or be apparent once the warrant was made public that he was involved up to his neck.
This was a "minimal limited modified hangout".

547 The identerfier card that the President carries to ID himself using the Football is commonly called the Biscuit. Its changed when a new POTUS takes office, every 3 months or the second that is unless someone thinks its becomes unsecure. Bill Clinton actually lost one of his. It has never been found.

The loss of the card was only an issue if the need had arisen to have POTUS give a launch order. Its worthless in anyone else's hands.

548 So Trump keeping nuclear documents at his Florida motel is fine with all the "Patriots" here?
Rooting for Russia?
Hoping for collapse of American institutions because of wild-eyed bullshit?
Ok, "patriots". Honk honk

553 Putin is not fighting the American Deep State. He's fighting for his own power, prestige, and bank accounts.

Stop putting your faith in princes.

If you rely on Russia or China to save you, you will be even more disappointed than the people trusting in the Republican Party.

Posted by: spindrift at August 12, 2022 10:51 AM (h5TKJ)

555 Only an imbecile thinks that there are not several classified documents concerning US nuclear capabilities and systems/procedures. That should not be in someone's golf course.

556 "I will not stand by silently when their integrity is unfairly attacked,” calling FBI and DOJ officials “dedicated, patriotic public servants."

No you didn't Merrick, you got on you bully pulpit an lied about it. It's obvious to EVERYBODY with a functional brain that this raid wasn't on the up-and-up. How are Hillary's and Hunter's cases coming along, you jack-wagon?

558 The only brain-dead ignoramuses are the ones who believe anything Trump says and risk their careers, lives, or reputations on his word. Unfortunately some are literally brain-dead at this point bc they're also dead-dead.
