The Morning Report — 3/6/23

bidensbigidea.jpg

Good morning, kids. Good morning, kids. Ah yes, another week, another domestic terror attack, although the junta's house organ propagandists will attempt to spin it as "mostly peaceful" or "understandable" or even "justified." That is if they deign to even cover it at all, since according to President Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants Antifa is just "an idea" and not a real threat or organized movement. Nudge-nudge wink-wink, burn-burn.

What happened last night is a continuation of the rioting concerning so-called "Cop City," Atlanta's development of its own property into a police training facility. You may do a Colonel Kurtz "the horror!" now.

A few weeks after a shootout with police left an Antifa protester dead and a Georgia State Trooper injured, the “Defend the Atlanta Forest” movement of far-left goons has firebombed the construction site of a future public training facility for the city of Atlanta.

The domestic terrorist action came about as part of a “Week of Action” that the far-left group announced last month. The “action” began as a series of protest marches in Atlanta on Saturday but culminated in the violent act of terrorism that took place on Sunday night. . .

. . . “There was a massive police presence along Key Road in southeast Atlanta early Sunday evening as FOX 5 was told protestors were actively clashing with officers,” reports Fox 5. “Officials said at least one construction vehicle was set on fire.”

The good news is that police have locked down the site and put out the flames, and SWAT crews are in place.

Because it’s Sunday night, we haven’t seen statements yet from the city of Atlanta, Mayor Andre Dickens, or Gov. Brian Kemp.

It's still a developing story, and to his credit (and I give it grudgingly considering his actions/inaction in the electoral arena), Brian Kemp did declare a state of emergency when violence erupted in late January. Antifa, along with BLM is more than merely an idea. They are for sure an organized, loosely or otherwise, violent extremist group whose goal is the overthrow of the United States government. I hate to break it to these maggots but the FBI, DOJ, CIA, State Dept., the entire Federal bureaucracy along with the Democrat Party and their Renfield/Remora/RINO stooges beat you all to the punch in November of 2020.

Of course, it is they who give Antifa "the space to destroy" to quote horrid harridan Stephanie Rawlings Blake. Presumably at any point, it is they who can take it away. Or can they? If Antifa and now to a much lesser extent BLM become too big for the breeches, and decide to, Roehm at will shall we say, how will the junta rein them in? Remember that Antifa at its core is an anarcho-communist movement. To my knowledge their manifesto does not mention what happens when they do tear down society and we begin Year Zero. I assume it would be up to local police departments to do the dirty work, but given the war on police, policing in general and the decarceration movement have utterly devastated police departments, how is that going to play out? Not well, judging by the situation as it stands.

Multiple sources told the [NY] Post the city allegedly has more than 300 vacancies and officers are quitting “because they feel disrespected,” according to the report. The Austin Police Association said 77 more officers are expected to retire before the end of March. Lt. Brian Moon, who retired last month after 23 years of service, said Austin has become like Portland, Seattle, and San Francisco “where if you’re at all conservative or in law enforcement, it’s become a hostile place.” 

The staffing shortage is leading to later response times and 911 calls are being redirected to the non-emergency number “because there aren’t enough cops to solve the crimes,” according to the report. Senior Police Officer Justin Berry told the publication that the department has taken detectives off of cases to act as patrol officers.

“If you come home and find your home burglarized, calls like that are now going to 311,” said police union president Thomas Villarreal. “You’re not getting a police response to many property crimes if it’s not a violent crime that is currently ongoing.”

A former watch commander who goes by the name “Moody,” said the Austin Police Department has changed dramatically since he started in 1999, especially in 2021 when the city saw a record 88 homicides and a rise in violent crime. Moody said he has seen the city’s attitude toward police “shift” and said he did not feel the city was “really appreciating us the way they used to.”

The Austin City Council notably caved to the left-wing “defund the police” crusade in 2020, slashing the budget by $150 million following the death of George Floyd in Minnesota and the resulting protests and riots. Officials also cut 150 officer positions from the budget, according to the report.

It's hard for me to feel any sympathy for places like Austin, or Portland, Seattle, Chicago and New York and half a hundred other cities and burgs that have eagerly and willingly swallowed the bullshit of systemic racism and this mythical war on black males by white or white-adjacent (i.e. the five uniformed animals from Memphis who were all black that beat Tyre Nichols to death) in the wake of the George Floyd incident. Of course, you can always get a pistol and defend yourself. Yeah, right. Meh, you people voted for it when you voted for maniacs like this George Gaviscon. Speaking of whom . . .

A career criminal named James Tubbs is accused of beating a man to death in Kern County, California. Tubbs sought special treatment by calling himself “Hannah” and claiming to be a woman. Prosecutor Shea Sanna wasn’t buying it and Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón has suspended Sanna for “deadnaming” Tubbs, whom he correctly identified as a “predator.”

In 2013, Tubbs was accused of fondling a 4-year-old girl. Six months later in 2014 he attacked a 10-year-old girl in the bathroom of a Denny’s restaurant. In jailhouse phone calls, Tubbs boasted about getting better treatment by calling himself a “tranny.” Tubbs also called himself a “grown-ass man” and joked about making up the gender con. Tubbs is hardly the first criminal to play that game. 

In 1980 in Los Angeles, a man named Rodney Quine gunned down Shahid Ali Baig, a father of three, then stole Baig’s car and $80. Quine was twice-married and had fathered two daughters, but once in prison the murderer claimed to have sought female status since the age of nine. 

A forensic examination of hormones, chromosomes, internal organs, skeletal structure and such would have revealed the truth in short order. Trouble is, the justice system no longer follows the science. Like a mental patient who claims to be God or Napoleon, the murderer’s claim to be a woman was accepted, and then some. 

According to an August 2015 LifeSiteNews report, federal judge Jon Tigar, “assigned himself to Quine’s case and appointed a team of San Francisco lawyers and the Transgender Law Center to represent him.” Tigar claimed that denying a prisoner’s “gender reassignment” surgery may constitute “deliberate indifference” to a serious medical need and, if so, would be unconstitutionally “cruel and unusual punishment.” 

For the Obama judge, convicted murderers have a right to gender reassignment surgery, regardless of cost. In 2015, California became the first state to pony up taxpayers’ money for the sex-change operation of a convicted criminal. On January 5, 2017, Shiloh Heavenly Quine, 57, became the first U.S. inmate to receive state-funded sex-reassignment, at a cost of some $100,000.

“It just made me dizzy and sick,” Farida Baig, the murder victim’s daughter, told reporters. “I’m helping pay for his surgery. I live in California. It’s kind of like a slap in the face.” 

If that quote doesn't crystallize the phrase "you will be made to care, I don't know what does. And while thugs, murderers and terrorists are flooding in from south of the border completely unchecked, along with thugs, murderers and terrorists who were spawned right here in the former good ol' US of A, the Junta is laser-focused on the Phantom Menace: white nationalism:

. . . did you know that, on February 25, America’s neo-Nazi and White Supremacist groups sponsored a national “Day of Hate”? You probably didn’t hear anything about it unless you are Jewish and your inbox was inundated with emails from various Jewish organizations, synagogues, and even local condo boards, warning of “an online campaign by domestic violence extremists, calling for an anti-Semitic “Day of Hate.”

As it turned out, despite the terror this announcement caused in Jewish households and houses of worship across the country and as far away as Israel, the “Day of Hate” passed without incident, as reported in The Forward, a progressive Jewish publication.

It’s good that nothing happened. The last thing anyone wants, including this skeptic, is more violence. But anti-Semitism is on the march, and we must monitor and be aware of it no matter the source—white supremacists, non-white supremacists, Antifa, or Islamic extremists. The problem for Jews and non-Jews alike, as evidenced by the “Day of Hate” that never happened, is that America’s politicians, journalists, and activists are only concerned with anti-Semitism coming from white people.

I immediately noticed that many warnings included the buzzwords “domestic violence extremists“ or “far-right.” While there were no direct or credible threats, we were asked to be vigilant and report anything of concern to law enforcement—which ironically revealed that leftists perceive law enforcement as a force for good only when white people commit crimes. . .

. . . As family emails and texts volleyed back and forth in anticipation of the Day of Hate, I expressed my reservations about the legitimacy of the warnings, which appear to have come from the Anti-Defamation League and a group called the Counter Extremism Project. Did anyone verify that this social media chatter was indeed from real Nazi and white supremacist groups and not disinformation or bots? Or did we all take it at face value and pass on the news, as tenuous as it might have been, like a national game of Operator? . . .

. . . I am concerned this might have been a way to further incite hatred against conservatives and Trump supporters—a vile and heinous way of taking advantage of our collective fear of persecution as Jews for rank political ends. . .

. . . Today, in our America, the Wokists are just that dangerous. Their self-righteous, smug arrogance about what are permissible viewpoints, beliefs, values, or morals, and their unquenchable need to target individuals whose views differ, by outlawing their views and opinions, and punishing them through ostracization, cancellation, and even jail…are far more dangerous to the health of the republic and individual feelings of safety and freedom, than a bunch of brown shirts spraying anti-Semitic tropes on a wall and unfurling Nazi banners.

I am absolutely 100% concerned about neo-Nazi violence and the potential for them to rise to power and persecute my family. I am absolutely 100% committed to monitoring such groups.

But, what keeps me up at night is the threat from people already in power who have labeled conservatives like me—like us—”domestic violence extremists”; who will one day kick down my door in the dead of night and haul me away without any Due Process because of something I said or wrote.

Now, the author gets it. Meh, the last thing I, a Jew and child of a survivor of actual Nazi persecution, is concerned about in this country are the KKK, Aryan Brotherhood or any other standard or verifiable neo-Nazi organization. In a nation of about 330 million, the actual number of bona fide people who are confirmed as identifying as the aforementioned are roughly less than 20,000. That's 20,000 out of 330 million

But who were the Nazis? That is an acronym for National SOCIALIST. Look who is in power. Look who is causing the physical acts of violence, mayhem and destruction. Look who is silencing, persecuting, blackballing and driving from the public square all voices that are not socialist. And look who the press and this Junta is going after.

QED.

37 When Communists take over, they kill people in a very specific order. The first people up against the wall are the revolutionaries, the Antifa/Bolshevik types, because they have proven that they can overthrow a society.

The next group fool killed are the intelligentsia, the people who trained the revolutionaries, the Commies don't want more revolutionaries in their society.

The third group fool killed are the Star Trek Socialists, who, when they see what socialism is really like, start fighting back: "Hey what are you doing? This isn't what we wanted."

Only after they are dead do they start coming after people like us, so there will be plenty of time to point and laugh.

--

Kohl's has been on my "do not shop" list of stores for a long time now, but way back when Jr. Black was 5 or 6, when I'd go into Kohl's with him, he'd always remark on their constant "sale" prices within the store because the signs were everywhere. He'd say, "if it's always on sale, isn't it really not on sale and that's the actual price?" He has a masters in accounting today.

They have wanted to federalize the police for quite some time. Considering, how much difference is there between the political SS and the FBI at this point? (not going full equating just yet, but the spirit seems to be there- at least among leadership and loud cases.)

I think its the geophysical surveys they do prior to construction. Sonar, seismic tech drives them crazy and they end up swimming into shipping lanes.

83 Or can they? If Antifa and now to a much lesser extent BLM become too big for the breeches, and decide to, Roehm at will shall we say, how will the junta rein them in?
++++
The same way any other government reins in any other similar group: with brutal force.

There is a reason why sponsoring roving, ideological terrorists to operate in your own country is a bad idea. They can try - and it might even work - to just order them to stand down. Antifa's leadership (and yes, they have it) is aligned with the leftist political structure, and they might listen if ordered to stop. If they don't, then they have to be suppressed violently in their operational centers. Places like Portland will probably require martial law and shoot on sight orders.

The longer they wait to deal with Antifa, the more expensive and deadly its eventual suppression will becomes. We've seen from Antifa's various suburban misadventures that they tend not to proceed in the face of countering action. That will not always be true.

Good. This is true. "Sanctuary" policies are corrosive and dangerous wherever they're implemented and the sooner people realize that, the better.

This supervisor is correct. If you're committed to "sanctuary" policies, then you cannot do anything about this. So drop the policy - and the supervisor.

Since they're long past protester status whatever methods used for riot control are applicable, it merely needs the resolve to employ them. Failure to do so will result in even worse depredations.

This will not always be true. The longer Antifa is allowed to fester, arm up and - crucially - gain real-world practice in operations, the more dangerous it will becomes. There are lots of middle-class fags and junkies in Antifa. It is probably a commanding majority of Antifa members. They can, however, be trained and the group can recruit and train others who are a bit more operationally reliable.

This is probably true for now, but dealing with them will get harder and harder as time goes on.

I'm of two minds about that.

On the one hand, the "sanctuaries" are in direct violation of the law and the feds should prosecute the leadership for conspiracy and cut off the funding as punishment - all the funding, for everything - until they get capitulation.

On the other hand, I am generally fond of local nullification of federal law and regulation because I see it as a way to try to get out from under Washington's yoke. That said, though, you can be sure that any non-left-wing nullification will see an immediate response whereas left-wing nullification never does.

Strange that.

Absolutely. And the federal authorities, and most states, are in favor of that, and certainly letting/making it happen.

That's why some state needs to get tough, lead the way for others, and secure their own AO. These people are going to grow more and more bold until they're rolling around like Tonton Macoute in a lot of places.

Nervier leaders might want to consider acting *before* it gets that bad for them, and can't be nipped in the bud. We're at one of the last stages where that's possible.

Yup. Even if there's little or no "direct action" at the moment, go after them hard. Every big city has at least one Antifa cell. Arrest them. Even if they've done nothing, they're part of a terror group. There's a financial fraud, an ill-gotten gain, etc. - there is something, somewhere in that organization. Hit it, and hit it hard. Do it publicly. Invite the news cameras to see the perp walk.

This will likely cause one of two consequences. Either Antifa will decamp (it isn't a soft target) or Antifa will come hard and start "direct action." If the former, problem solved. If the latter, declare a state of emergency, activate the NG and give them shoot-on-sight orders.

I've thought that as the 2024 election approaches that the Dims would realize how unpopular their Kill the Police/Burn Down the Cities/Antifa/BLM Agenda is and -

like Leftist/Progtard/Commie regimes everywhere turn on their attack dogs and neuter them (for certain values of 'neuter"). Usually that means prison.

Buuuut, I guess not.

Either that means:
1) the attack dogs reign of destruction hasn't reached it's goal yet, or
2)the attack dogs are the New and Improved KKK (military wing of the Democrats) and will remain forever or until the Dims are defeated politically and law and order can be restored.

I know, I know.

To a certain extent, all of our fates are tied to the Democrat Voters decisions.
ie. How long are they going to vote for the destruction and burning of their own cities, the molestation and mutilation of their children, the destruction of their economy, jobs, and future, the energy to just live above a dark ages peasant level let alone drive a car or transport of some kind, the collapse of their diet to a subsistence level of 3rd world bug eating?

I respect Paul as being on of the only (or perhaps even the only) senator who has a governing philosophy, who actually believes in things, and stands up for those beliefs. I don't always agree with Paul, but I do respect his apparent integrity. He is a minority of 1 in the Senate.

None of his Fauci skewering matters anymore. There is a time when it did, when Fauci wasn't totally discredited yet. The battle lines have formed at this point, though. More political theater won't skew a single person's opinion on Fauci. There needs to be more and better than that. Prosecution of him and Birx, and a serious budget cut - maybe 100% - of his agencies.

How can someone that foolish get that rich?

I have always been a China skeptic, but there was a time that it was a great place to try to make some money. That time is not now. Not anymore. Xi is not Deng, Xi is Mao and it's been clear for some time. There have been a ton of big, obvious warnings over the past 3-5 years that you should move capital out of China if you had the ability.

The aggressive tech crackdown. The "common prosperity" platform. The "three red lines" policy on the real estate market, that was absolutely going to cause financial system pressure (or even failure - time will tell). The Zero-COVID policy. The water and energy situations.

Even a lot of non-skeptics started drawing down capital when these things happened, and it accelerated under Zero-COVID. Why did this guy leave capital there until the bitter end?

The risk of friendlies in the NG is very real.

My thought is that it is very possible that Antifa is much better armed and much larger than it appears to be. If that's the case, a small action headed by SWAT would be a much bigger gamble than a larger action headed by the militia. And the video cameras rolling as soldiers geared up for actual battle going in to deal with the terror group will have tremendous psychological value.

---------------
Both AntiFa and Black Lesbian Mayors are hired hands from Manhattan, San Fran and Chicago. They have air cover provided by the FBI and are funded by Big Money. They are not numerous but can excite inner city youts to do really stupid things as we saw in Minneapolis, Portland and District of Chazz. The Black Lesbian Mayors got a remarkable payday for stealing the election. AntiFa, from what I've seen did not. AntiFa is basically The Bernie Bots and as we know, the Suits in Dem Party want them dead. So, my guess, you may be seeing a Night of the Long Knives to cleanse the Party of AntiFa. Atlanta would be a suitable stage for this.

"The whistleblower says that the FBI asked the Boston branch of the agency to arrest 140 people who rode the bus to DC on January 6th. That’s all they did. Fortunately, FBI agents pushed back against the order, because there was no proof that these people had done anything wrong... The FBI tracked these 140 Trump supporters in Boston down through their bank records.

And the banks complied. The FBI requested personal banking records of anyone who traveled to Washington, DC that day. That’s how they found these 140 individuals who they tried to arrest. They had paid for bus tickets to DC. It’s not even clear if all of them were actually going to the protest."

Chinese labor costs are now increasing; their debt load is over-the-top and other nations are beginning to capably fill the gap. Energy is also expensive and wherever cheap and reliable energy can be obtained, there will be interest there.

I think that the trigger event may be when Pax Americana fails and Jack Sparrow replaces the US Navy in being the master of the seas.

The entire basis of the global trade system is actually quite simple:
"There is no security problem on the High Seas because the United States Navy makes sure there isn't and doesn't play favorites."

The global trade system is complicated, but it rests on that one core assumption. Most of our treaties - especially security guarantees - rest on that assumption, too.

How about we take a different approach and we force prisoners convicted of rape to have transgender surgeries.

Seems like a win-win.

What seems fascinating to me is:
-they tried to cancel the game
-they failed, spectacularly
-yet they continue to dig in. I find it odd, but they seem to have gotten a bit of ego in on this one. If they back down, they risk losing their power (although in this case, the damage is already done, but they insist on throwing more energy at this battle- like Verdun for the Woke (I wish.))

293 Dead whales continue to wash up on NJ/NY shorelines.. 25 since Dec 1.

Philth Murphy hasnt said a word about it and its definitely not the geophysical surveys for the OpenWind turbine farm planned off the coast of Atlantic City.

I don't recall geophysical surveys to search for offshore oil deposits resulting in mass whale kills, back in the sane times when it was routinely done. Surely the usual suspects would have wailed about it incessantly had it happened.

294 Former President Donald Trump can be sued by injured Capitol Police officers and Democratic lawmakers over the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, the Justice Department said Thursday in a federal court case testing Trump’s legal vulnerability and the limits of executive power.

.. if the head of the Executive branch can be sued, so can the DOJ, FBI, DHS and the entire alphabet soup.

296 I think a 25 ton or so whale with no exoskeleton protection to it's brain running into a pier in the open ocean at depth could probably mess them up pretty bad.

Knock them out and then they just drown.

298 199: Huck - You think Trump actually lost to potato head? I don’t…. He won, but the cheaters “fortified” the election
Posted by: LinusVanPelt at March 06, 2023 09:01 AM (M23Y7)
========================
Who is sitting at 1600 Pennsylvania? There's your answer.

Elections may be illusory but they are also utilitarian, by which I mean the winner is whoever sits in the seat at the end. By that definition, Biden "won", and relitigating the cheat is only interesting to the extant it helps in preventing a future loss.

The Passion of Scott Adams


Scott Adams (@ScottAdamsSays)

Turns out I am only "politically" canceled. White Democrats who saw the out-of-context news canceled me completely. Black Americans wanted to discuss it. Conservatives who saw the context never blinked or canceled me anywhere.

White Democrats are a hate group.

300 It's disappointing to see anti-IVF links here. It's unfortunate that some radicals put IVF (which creates babies) in the same column as abortion.

And when I say "disappointing" and "unfortunate", I really mean FUCKING RETARDED.

301 BB says some 23 yr old tried to hook up with a White Supremacy group.

The group is called O9A (Order of the 9 Angels) and I guess it supposedly operates out of Turkey.

Sure seems like a USINT setup of a patsy. Never heard of O9A before and don't know a lot of Turkish skinheads.

302 ““It just made me dizzy and sick,” Farida Baig, the murder victim’s daughter, told reporters. “I’m helping pay for his surgery. I live in California. It’s kind of like a slap in the face.” ”

Farida should have offered to perform the procedure for free, on behalf of the state.
