The Morning Report — 9/14/22

Good morning kids. Wednesday and happy days are here again! The Inflation Reduction Act has finally kicked in. Except in Soviet America, inflation reduce YOU! The Dow took an absolute shit of over 1,000 points on the "unexpected" news that inflation skyrocketed. Whatever the vicissitudes and idiosyncrasies of the DJIA may be, every time you go to fill up your tank, buy clothing, or go to the supermarket (Food at Home Index Rose 13.5 Percent Over the Last 12 Months, the Largest 12-Month Increase Since the Period Ending March 1979) you feel it. Yet these raging clown-boners who call themselves "experts" are shocked - SHOCKED! - that their predictions are as they say in the trade, "wrong." How long before calling them out on being wrong, just like doctors in California for going against the State in speaking honestly about Chinese COVID, or doing public relations work for oil companies aiding and abetting defilers of Gaia is codified into law as a hate crime?

I'll say this for the junta, their timing is nothing if not perfect. Scheduling an event to officially celebrate a decrease in the inflation rate thanks to its miracle legislation on the same day the stock market tanks in spectacular fashion is karma. Yet, the real question is will their karma run over their dogma? More to the point, will their dogma run over all of us?

This junta — installed against the will of the American people after the theft of a national election — has all but declared war on half the nation as a means to prevent its significant diminution of power come the midterms and then removal from the executive branch two years hence. Oh, fuck it. They've declared war on half the nation to cement absolute power forever. Mar-a-Lago was not a one-off event.

The only potential silver lining to this, as the estimable Julie Kelly notes is that "Joe Biden and the ruling class have a lousy track record at winning wars." My fear is that when it comes to going after us, they're going to be absolutely fanatical.

Nearly 900 Americans face criminal charges for mostly nonviolent participation in the Capitol protest; lives have been destroyed, even ended, as a result of this cruel, vengeful prosecution recently rebranded the “Capitol Siege” investigation by Graves’ office. The weapons used in the first war on terror—secret surveillance, invasive investigation, armed raids, torture, and political prisons to name a few tactics—have been aimed at Trump supporters across the country in a show of force and intimidation.
“Operation MAGA Fascist” appears to be the commander-in-chief’s unofficial name of the regime’s war on terror against millions of Americans, which now is reaching a version of the Battle of Fallujah but without the bloodshed. (Let’s hope.) The unprecedented FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago on August 8 ratcheted up the fever of the war by a considerable measure—the regime’s desired response. . .
. . . MAGA Republicans, Biden claimed, “embrace anger,” “thrive on chaos,” and “live—in the shadow of lies,” descriptions loaded with irony coming from an angry inveterate liar who has thrown the nation into chaos. Without evidence, Biden further warned that MAGA Republicans have “fanned the flames of political violence.”
Yet that is precisely what Democrats hope to see as a consequence of fixating on January 6. In just the next few weeks, the January 6 select committee will hold another primetime performance as it threatens to compel testimony from Trump and former Vice President Michael Pence; the seditious conspiracy trial of several Oath Keepers, an alleged militia group involved in the Capitol protest, will begin in Washington, D.C.; and the committee’s final report is set for an October 18 release—all to provide fodder to again show how Trump’s base is populated with “insurrectionists” who tried to “overthrow democracy” . . .
. . . the goal is to stoke a political uprising in much the same way these interests accomplished what they wanted on January 6, 2021. It follows a familiar pattern of name-calling, false accusations, and blatant cover-ups in the reckless pursuit of power.

And if they can't stoke a political uprising, they'll call on the FBI and perhaps even the Russians themselves (Durham Bombshell: FBI Paid Shady Russian Businessman as a Confidential Informant Against Trump) to help concoct another Gleiwitz radio station incident to declare martial law and all out war on anyone not know to or who will swear fealty to the Junta. Think that that's crazy talk? Then you've been in a coma for the past two years, or longer. Instead of phony pipe bombs the FBI will rig a truck bomb to "accidentally" explode somewhere in red state MAGA country and then railroad some patsies into confessing it was intended for DNC headquarters or Biden's vacation home. Voila!

Even Michael Goodwin is sounding the alarm bells, this time without even any passive aggressive or even direct slaps at Trump.

The contrast between the president’s call for unity and the FBI’s partisan putsch is a bloodless version of the baptism murders scene in The Godfather, where Michael Corleone participates in his son’s christening while his goons assassinate the heads of the rival families.
So far, the FBI hasn’t fired a shot at Trump World, but the broad, aggressive subpoena action, which also involved seizing the cellphones of two associates, led even The New York Times to call it a “substantial escalation” of the government’s war against the former president.
As a result, the raid on Mar-a-Lago is beginning to look more like the start of something far more comprehensive and dangerous than a narrow one-off limited to official documents.
The developing pattern suggests Biden is committed to helping Democrats in the midterms by giving the party’s Trump haters a pound of flesh while scaring much of the opposition into silence. Attorney General Merrick Garland increasingly appears comfortable as the [junta's] enforcer, willing to use his power to serve his boss.
The hypocrisy is stunning. Dems accused Trump of trying to weaponize Justice as president but show no qualms about doing exactly that.
Instead of trying to parse their shifting explanations, it’s better to remember what the late John Mitchell once said of the Nixon administration: “Watch what we do, not what we say” . . .
. . . The latest subpoenas come after dozens of other former Trump aides were previously served with demands to provide information on numerous topics, including the planning of the Jan. 6 rally. Separately, state lawmakers and GOP party officials were also reportedly subpoenaed earlier in the summer. . .
. . . In addition, the attempts to criminalize the statements and peaceful efforts to contest the 2020 election made by people close to him, as well as by supporters at the state level, smack of a banana republic.
There is, of course, an ulterior purpose for this madness. For Dems in general, keeping the focus on Trump and what they call “insurrectionists” amounts to an enormous scam of diversion.
They prattle on feverishly and endlessly about extremists and threats to democracy in an effort to distract voters from focusing on sky-high inflation, surging crime and the open border nightmares their policies have produced. If voters focus on those failures, many Dems will be unemployed come January.
For Biden, the stakes are even higher. A Republican-led Congress would mean aggressive investigations of the role the Big Guy played in the access-peddling schemes of his son Hunter and brother Jim Biden.

Honestly, the odds of Biden and anyone in his orbit actually facing real prison time are the same as me going back in time and having a threesome with Ann Margret and Raquel Welch. I think this goes way beyond that. It is to seal absolute power for the anti-American junta forever. Period. As for Goodwin's quoting of Spiro Agnew, I disagree. You have to watch what they do and what they say. Because the former almost always follows the latter.

“We have to kill and confront [the MAGA] movement,” [Ohio Dem Senate candidate Tim] Ryan told host Willie Geist, adding that only “normal mainstream Republicans” are worth working with. He said this moments after (laughably) proclaiming that he’s “one of the most bipartisan members of Congress” and insisting, “I want to work across the aisle.”
Calling for the death of a movement that represents roughly half of America doesn’t seem like a good strategy if you’re touting your bipartisan bonafides, yet Ryan went there.

Heated rhetoric? Tell that to people like Andy Ngo or Steve Scalise, or Justice Kavanaugh and his family. Biden may have the mental capacity of a wilted kohlrabi, but he clearly, loudly and almost maniacally intoned the phrase "clear and present danger" to describe half this nation. More than a description, it was an indictment. What Julie Kelly and Michael Goodwin describe is the next logical progression, because what Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants declared at Independence Hall was indeed war and he gave marching orders.

That being the case, then if the expected drubbing at the polls this November plays out, how can that be legitimate? More to the point, how can elections be allowed to go forward in the first place if the slate of candidates are indeed a "clear and present danger?"

Watch what they say and do next.

20 U.S. judge unseals more portions of FIB affidavit on basis for searching former President Donald Trump's Florida home.

||The newly visible portions of the FBI agent’s affidavit show that the FBI on June 24 subpoenaed for the footage after a visit weeks earlier to Mar-a-Lago in which agents observed 50 to 55 boxes of records in the storage room at the property. The Trump Organization provided a hard drive on July 6 in response to the subpoena, the affidavit says.

The footage could be an important piece of the investigation, including whether anyone has sought to obstruct the probe. The Justice Department has said in a separate filing that it has “developed evidence that government records were likely concealed and removed from the Storage Room and that efforts were likely taken to obstruct the government’s investigation.”||

A Ted Cruz who wasn't a fully bought and paid for member of the Deep State would, the next time he saw a Dem Senate counterpart, go full Preston Brooks on them for shit like that. But Ted's too busy fapping over footage of Ashli Babbitt getting blown away to do a fucking thing.

As I said on the tech thread, this is what the GOP wants. They want the FBI to go after Mike Lindell or anyone else who supports President Trump. They want us arrested, imprisoned and murdered.

But please, tell me how voting for a single one of these ought-to-hang bastards is going to do jack shit.

All Durham is going to do is, maybe, convict a non-US citizen on lying to the FBI. Whoop-dee-doo. In the process he is going to shield TPTB by making it look like they were duped.

I think we're watching what the plan is already, though. Banned from office, only approved and selected representatives can serve. That will make sure that the government remains safe from any budget cuts and layoffs, and the agencies like the EPA and industries that rely on those agencies' continued cooperation with China will follow the correct path.

The camps and murder will follow. Once their selected victim group is marginalized, disempowered and pushed out, their problems don't magically go away. And those problems must be blamed on someone (since it can't possibly be their fault), so it is blamed on the remaining element. It may be out of public life, but it's still there and still wrecking the plans of the glorious leaders. Escalation is warranted to purge the scourge once and for all.

It will not stop with marginalization and reduction to second-class status. It cannot stop with that. There's a reason this progression so often leads to genocide-scale slaughter.

143 The woman Tucker interviewed who'd been approached by the FBI -- she'd done nothing more than sport a Trump sign in her yard. But a neighbor had reported her. Why? Because the neighbor was triggered, afraid of the "domestic extremist" living on their street. The FBI had no search warrant but she invited them in (mistake?). She felt under duress to prove to them she hadn't been anywhere near the J6 rally (as if merely attending the rally was now proof of seditious criminality).

Simply having a Trump sign now risks an FBI visit. This is how it works now, the world of constant fear they want us to inhabit.

Well, I mean, the indoctrination is so bad, it's funny and off-putting, which is why even the "choir" bails on this stuff. You just need your kid to bail out when they do (after getting "the credit" for showing up). It's actually good it's so bad b/c it becomes something to repel the kids away from it.

Yikes - thankfully, if you avoid the Honors College (and my kid literally turned that down at GMU...and then had to keep turning it down), you avoid "seminars" at GMU and just take core courses, of which you can find non-woke options for all the cores. My kid did a Lit class on Classic Mythology which was as non-woke as can be (now 90% of the core options were woke in Lit, but again, there are options to avoid it if you're not in the Honors College or a Liberal Arts major).

1st kid is School and Science and Music. Next one up in 2 years wants School of Nursing, so so far, so good...

This is incorrect. Uterus and ovaries are primary female sexual organs, and definitional. Secondary sexual characteristics are the external (outward) physical features that help to differentiate male from female on visual inspection, such as facial hair patterns, body fat distribution (including breast fat), pelvic width, depth of voice, muscle mass, etc. Maybe they should have gotten a biologist to write the article.

The only thing that kept Hillary from doing it was her thought that she was going to win in a landslide, if not someone like chelsea or her grand daughter would have mysteriously come down with an illness that killed them days before the election (like how Obama's grandmother he hated just happened to die 2 days before he was set to lose to McCain)

I think this is actually a good thing for our side, for example the Heritage Foundation being pushed into coming up with $5 million for Blake Master's campaign when McConnell wouldn't fund it. McConnell is powerful BECAUSE he controls the sources of funding for so much of the GOP - so, the obvious and only answer is that other sources of funding have to arise which do NOT run through McCarthy and McConnell. (and they just launder corporate donations) By them cutting off some candidates, they themselves are the ones forcing this change to take place.

With the standup of an emergency board, Biden hopes to avoid the additional impact of a rail strike.

Under the Railway Labor Act, the executive order triggers a “cooling off” period intended to keep the parties working toward a negotiated settlement. This means that neither side can make a decision to stop work for the next 60 days (except by mutual agreement).

311 Let me clarify my "I'm not so sure it's going to be outright murder and camps." statement because I'm sure people are wondering "how can he say that and post the link about not going to the camps?"

Someone mentioned normalcy bias above. It's tied to that. Biden gave the game away with his Red Dumb speech. If they can keep the plates spinning and get Good Republicans in office to continue the left's agenda, everything will be fine. If they can quash the MAGA movement by banning campaigns and jailing leaders for thoughtcrimes, everything will die down and be fine. Because be honest, no one* will do anything except gripe and complain. They will continue on as planned with no need for murder or the camps (until they need them, I guess).

* It's the TEA Party all over, except the stakes are higher. But like the normalcy bias mention above, if someone has 500K invested that is now showing $350K, they think "I've still got $350K." They don't think about inflation and that their $500K is now really worth $170K.

They're going to hold onto and cherish what they worked for because it was hard to earn, and the Democrats and Good Republicans know it. They rely on it.

I think one of the more interesting sub-narratives of this whole thing is how this revolution isn't really happening in the Democrat Party.

You can point to Bernie Sanders, leftist populist, but he's completely a tool of the establishment. You can point to the Squad, but they're manufactured by the establishment and exist only in the safest of blue seats.

There is no real groundswell within the Democrat Party for any kind of 1980s level solutions to problems that seem to have become the ideological bedrock of the new populist movement in America. Their "populists" are machine tools without question. Even their issues are the issues of the coastal elites with a thin veneer of populism (like AOC's tax the rich dress at the $15,000 a plate thing).

absolutely. It still amazes me that so many on our side, even here, don't quite grasp yet that we're fighting a two front war right now - the first against the Rad Left which runs all the institutions now, of course, but the 2nd war is against the GOP-e and all the corporations and deep state members that control them. McConnell and McCarthy are in that 2nd group, and they are in very powerful positions BECAUSE they represent the Deep State, in its GOP-e version. The big corps probably like them more than they like the rad left, but never forget that to the corps, China's current system is just perfect. That's what they want.

The rad left wants Pol Pot style annihilation;
The GOP-e/Deep State wants Chinese style totalitarian control.
those are the two enemies we have to fight simultaneously.

They are following the playbook of all totalitarian governments including using the state against their designated enemies.

Feliks Mats got arrested when he was a student at Indiana University in Bloomington, IN A twenty-six-year-old giving alcohol to a minor may or may not concern voters, but someone has been trying hard to erase all the evidence. Given that both Hernandez-Mats and her husband work in our school systems, the public has a right to know about this arrest.

I wonder who he's talking to. Nobody believes him or that. Those on his side will pretend to believe it but know it's fake and so won't be convinced and those not on his side know it's fake and won't pretend otherwise. Anyone in the middle who might believe him is a low-fo who probably doesn't know who he is and so it doesn't matter in the slightest for that group.

485 I know of a case (close relative was one of the principals) where the amount in question was $100,000. Took years, eventually went to an Appeals Court where my relative "won". Each side spent roughly $500,000 in legal fees for the chance to win $100,000. (no loser did not pay costs)

494 The reason why McConnell, Ronna Romney, and McCarthy have power is that candidates have given it to them. There are two ways to run a campaign--one is to campaign on ideas, rely on volunteer and low paid believers, and run get out the vote campaigns that do not rely on expensive mailers nor expensive ad placements. The second is to become a pet of GOPe where they offer a prepackaged selection of a complete team--manager, strategists, ad placement, legal, and campaign finance. These GOPe approved candidates get this help on the condition that they adopt whatever the donors/RNC/GOPe wants them to say. Essentially, they are actors hired to play a part.

For policy independence in the House or Senate, you have to do a Ron/Rand Paul, MTG, etc. where they are funded directly nationwide by their supporters and have a good ground game. So, this sort of candidate can tell their colleagues to take a flying leap when GOPe tries to pull uniparty shit. That is the real reason MTG was punished with little pushback by McCarthy--he does not want her model to spread to others. That is also why Cheney and Kinzinger despite shitting on their party were not expelled--donors is the reason.

499 @ Tom Servo, Jackstraw-Without rule of law you're not going to get your country back. Your society is fucked. This is basic shit for a functioning society. People on the left not going to jail and/or letting criminals out of jail affects all of us.
Winning elections mean jackshit nothing except maybe locally and that's just for the time being. Trump won two elections look where that got him. Until we have the things I listed in my comment above you guys can do a victory dance for elections that we haven't even won yet. I'll wait and see if these poor MAGA bastards aren't walking into a g-damn trap since they're f'ing terrorists and the greatest threat to democracy and national security.

500 James Taylor is a pathetic hack that the cool boomer kids decided was cool 50 years ago. And because they never mature and remain pathetic and cowardly spoiled brats, they trot him out at their parties to reaffirm to each other how cool they are, and, for the nerds and dweebs in the uncool group, remind them of their status (even if they cop their homework from them.) Thus Mitch McConnell will continue to yearn to be invited to the Taylor parties, but he's just a Kentucky yahoo who will do their bidding then return to his nerduary, uncool and unloved.

And that's exactly what Durham's filing did yesterday.

If it was shown that the FBI made a Russian national they once considered a Russian spy because of his ties to Russian intelligence a paid Confidential Human Source to hide him from scrutiny AFTER they determined the report he wrote and the FBI used to go after a Democrat presidential candidate and then a sitting Democrat president the world would be on fire right now. We can't seem to muster a match. Posted by: JackStraw

The effect is regime legitimacy is going out the window. By so many scandals, essentially now the common populace on the right and left believe all the institutions are corrupted. Only the elites, naked to the world, argue differently.

Essentially, the DOJ has become a protection racket and investigations, sources, etc. are all used to obstruct justice rather than advance it. They rely on these continuing investigations to intimidate whistleblowers, conceal evidence of misdoing, harass political opponents, and for fun/profit.

512 JJ is absolutely right here.

GOPe politicians like the McCain family and Romney were and are cold-blooded attack dogs against conservatives and America First Patriots, but immediately became purring demure kitty cats (if not simply self-inflicted road kill) when up against a Democrat opponent for President.

In the same way, Democrats and their corrupt allies in Government are relentless in their assault on conservatives and American Patriots (any Republican who doesn’t kneel and kiss Biden’s ring); but become bungling fools when up against terrorists and nations who want to murder, loot, and subjugate the American People.
