The Morning Report

The Morning Report — 5/1/23

Good morning, kids. At the risk of beating the RFK Jr. subject to death, considering I've already devoted a couple of columns as well as a segment on the latest podcast with CBD (here and in the sidebar) – and let me once again emphasize that I am in no way, shape or form endorsing him nor will I ever vote for him – his entry into the Democrat primary race I think can be quite useful in both the short- and long-term to the national discourse. As I describe it, he's the proverbial turd in the Democrat punchbowl as he will force the Junta as well as the propaganda complex to go into overdrive to protect attacks on Biden, or whoever the ham sammich-du-jour will be that winds up at the top of the ticket come 2024.

Whether by his preternatural, lifelong Lefty antagonism to corporate America or because he recognized the evil for what it was and is all by itself, his going after Big Pharma and the destructive policies of the COVID lockdowns is to be applauded. As CBD pointed out, his attacks did go back and no doubt were aimed at Trump at the start of this catastrophe. And to be fair, Trump does bear some of the blame for trusting Fauci and Birx and not his instincts when he might have stopped the "two weeks to flatten the curve" at the outset But that's neither here nor there and I'm getting off course.

The ironic thing here is that Big Pharma and Big Corporations, which not so long ago we defended as bastions of the free market have actually turned out to be anything but. Ditto many of our investment houses and banks via ESG and a growing swathe of the corporate sector with the imposition of D-I-E policies. We have devolved into a crony-fascist state in terms of our economic system and are pretty much there in terms of political repression via censorship as well as out and out thuggery from the government-approved stormtroopers of Antifa, BLM and now transgender terrorists, as well as thuggery via law fare from our criminal justice and intel agencies, and the bureaucracy in general.

And while RFK Jr. is also making the right noises about censorship, I have no doubt that were he ever to go all the way to the Oval Office, the temptation to silence any and all voices of opposition to him, especially in the area of "climate change," would be just too great. He has an even greater hate on for fossil fuels and oil companies than he does for Big Pharma. How he could be so right about the latter and so wrong about the former is maddening. And while it's actually encouraging that someone like Naomi Wolf issued a mea culpa not just on Chinese COVID but on Leftism in general, I have my doubts that RFK Jr. will have the scales fall from his eyes as with Wolf.

The fact that Louis "Calypso Louie" Farrakkkhan is somewhat of an ally of him is troubling. And not just on Chinese COVID jabs but as an anti-vaxxer on measles and other real diseases going back several years already.

Farrakhan and Kennedy carried their unlikely alliance through the coronavirus pandemic. During a 2020 speech in which Farrakhan called a vaccine a "vial of death," the preacher urged his supporters to "follow Robert Kennedy." In another speech that year, Farrakhan asserted that Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates had plotted to administer the vaccine across the globe to "depopulate the Earth."
Nation of Islam minister Ava Muhammad said at the event that the goal of the vaccine was to "cull the population of our planet by 2-3 billion" because "white people see their [population] numbers going down, and the numbers of indigenous people, black, red, and brown, going up." The Nation of Islam has cited Kennedy in its claim that the polio vaccine is linked to higher cancer rates in black people.
But Kennedy hasn't always felt so warmly about Farrakhan. According to excerpts of Kennedy's private diary leaked in 2013, Kennedy lamented that civil rights leader Jesse Jackson had a "love affair with Louis Farrakhan and his Jewish xenophobia."

There's an old saying I remember from my days in show biz, "Hollywood would forgive Hitler if he were good box office. Well, maybe not forgive, but they'd forget."

Strange bedfellows, I guess. Again, if the net effect of RFK Jr.'s presence in the race is to make Dem voters and the LIV crowd in general see through the propaganda of the Junta, that's fine by me. In some ways, RFK Jr. is right on some of the issues but perhaps for the wrong reasons. As for our side of the equation, you better believe either Trump or DeSantis is going to pounce on him or use his, RFK's, attacks from the left as weapons of their own. In the short term and perhaps near long term, I'll take all of that. If he does gain traction, it will be interesting to see if he goes after Biden on his corruption vis a vis Hunter's laptop and Burisma (as an aside, what is RFK Jr.'s position on Ukraine?).

This is the same CIA and FBI that he has railed against for murdering his father and his uncle. Still, I'll bet he won't say a peep.

And speaking of the CIA, well, lookie here!

Newly released documents revealed Biden-appointed CIA Director William Burns met with deceased financier and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein on multiple occasions after he was convicted of sex crimes in Florida, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reports.
The private calendar and emails show Epstein scheduled three meetings with Burns in 2014 when Burns was deputy secretary of state under President Obama, according to WSJ. Their first meeting was planned for August in the Washington, DC office of law firm Steptoe & Johnson and the next two were booked for Epstein’s Manhattan, New York townhouse, the documents show. Epstein planned on having Burns taken back to the airport after one of the scheduled meetings.
A CIA spokesperson told WSJ Burns met with Epstein as he was preparing to leave the government and did not know anything about him. “The director did not know anything about him, other than that he was introduced as an expert in the financial services sector and offered general advice on transition to the private sector,” CIA spokesperson Tammy Kupperman Thorp told the outlet. “They had no relationship.”
Burns recalled meeting Epstein once in New York after they were introduced by a mutual friend, Thorp told WSJ. “The director does not recall any further contact, including receiving a ride to the airport.”
Burns left government in October 2014 to become president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a prominent foreign policy think tank based in Washington, DC. He was appointed CIA Director by [so-called quote-unquote "president"] Biden in 2021. A career diplomat, he previously served as ambassador to Russia from 2005-08."

A government of thieves, whore-mongers and pedophiles. Funny how the story of the mass document leak from National Guardsman Jack Texeira has all but disappeared from the headlines. Meh, with people like Burns, Biden and so many others, he's the least of our problems. Heck, he might even be a hero.

First Clue??: several neighbors, friends and office mates are packing various self-defense weapons in various ways and cycles. It's not quite the fervor of summer of 2020 when BLM and Antifa went begging to have their faces smashed, but it's similar. Can't quite put my thumb on a commonality.

As for the R side, DeSantis path forward is on the Trump Train, as inheritor of the loyalty of Trump voters. Instead he appears to have opted for the GOPE/Faux Nooz path, the new party golden boy. Ask Paul Ryan about that path. It’s a shame. Oh well

27 So I'm gonna assume simply for the sake of discussion that if one simply removes the brace itself from the buffer tube of an AR-15 pistol, that it then is no longer considered an AR-15 pistol with a brace attached to it.

NEW: Per ICE source, Francisco Oropesa, the Mexican national who police who say fatally shot 5 of his neighbors in TX, is in the U.S. illegally. I’m told he’s been previously deported, has “multiple” illegal re-entries on his record, and was last encountered by ICE in 2016.

BREAKING: FBI says reward is now $80,000 for gunman wanted in Texas shooting

"We don't have any tips right now to where he may be and that's why we've come up with this reward [...] Right now we're just running into dead ends."

andy: The thrice-deported Mexican-illegal shooter's five victims were Hondurans.

Ten people in the house with none of the five victims sharing a common surname so I don't know their legal status.

So keep that in mind for any "Texas man kills five" reports, and personal or internet interactions regarding the shooting you might have.

St. Joseph the Worker
Saint of the Day
St. Joseph (1st c.) was born in Bethlehem in Judea and later settled in Nazareth. By Divine command he became the husband of the Virgin Mary and adoptive father to God Incarnate. We know from Scripture and Tradition that St. Joseph was a virtuous man and a carpenter by trade. It was he who was entrusted with the great mission to guard, protect, and provide for the temporal needs of God's most precious gifts, the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Child Jesus, in the role of husband and father within the Holy Family. St. Joseph's mission continues from heaven as the patron saint of the Catholic Church. He is also the patron of many causes including fathers, laborers, and families. His feast days are: St. Joseph the Husband of Mary on March 19th, and St. Joseph the Worker on May 1st. Pope Pius XII instituted the feast of St. Joseph the Worker in 1955 to emphasize the dignity, meaning, and value of human work in the eyes of God, and to give all laborers a model of virtue as well as a heavenly intercessor and protector.

75 The ironic thing here is that Big Pharma and Big Corporations, which not so long ago we defended as bastions of the free market have actually turned out to be anything but. Ditto many of our investment houses and banks via ESG and a growing swathe of the corporate sector with the imposition of D-I-E policies. We have devolved into a crony-fascist state in terms of our economic system
++++
It's been a radical pivot, actually. As recently as 2019, Big Pharma was not to be trusted and as long as ago as 2020, Big Pharma was not to be questioned.

I think the system-wide pivot over the past 5-7 years indicates that the left was more or less correct on this one for some time: the corporations are evil, they are in cahoots with the government, they are predatory, they are criminal.

Al Gore's is obviously profit as his carbon trade system has made him hundreds of millions.

90 A CIA spokesperson told WSJ Burns met with Epstein as he was preparing to leave the government and did not know anything about him. “The director did not know anything about him, other than that he was introduced as an expert in the financial services sector and offered general advice on transition to the private sector,” CIA spokesperson Tammy Kupperman Thorp told the outlet. “They had no relationship.”

==================
Barclays bought Lehman (JPMC bought Bear Stearns), but your point is exactly right. JP Morgan is huge and is itself a massive risk to America. Once upon a time, bank size was limited by regulation to prevent risk to the financial system (no one bank was too big to fail) and no one bank was so globally focused that it began to impact American foreign policy.

Too Big To Fail is Too Big To Survive.

Repealing Glass-Steagal, mandatory credit ratings for all bonds and allowing the big investment banking majors to become publicly-traded were all disastrous policies, not one of which was addressed during the financial crisis. All the financial crisis did was concentrate risk further. The TBTF banks got even bigger through taxpayer-funded consolidation and risk-shedding.

116 Paul Stanley from Kiss:

My Thoughts On What I'm Seeing

There is a BIG difference between teaching acceptance and normalizing and even encouraging participation in a lifestyle that confuses young children into questioning their sexual identification as though some sort of game and then parents in some cases allow it. There ARE individuals who as adults may decide reassignment is their needed choice but turning this into a game or parents normalizing it as some sort of natural alternative or believing that because a little boy likes to play dress up in his sister's clothes or a girl in her brother's, we should lead them steps further down a path that's far from the innocence of what they are doing. With many children who have no real sense of sexuality or sexual experiences caught up in the "fun" of using pronouns and saying what they identify as, some adults mistakenly confuse teaching acceptance with normalizing and encouraging a situation that has been a struggle for those truly affected and have turned it into a sad and dangerous fad.

I think network failure or bank failure are big and real risks. Bank failure shouldn't be a major factor because of the FDIC and NCUA, but there's a factor there most people don't consider: the FDIC/NCUA guarantees that you will be made whole (up to the limits), but they do not guarantee *when* you will be made whole.

Trump/Covid: 85% of Americans fell for the dupe, Trump was smart enough to go along with YOU ALL. YOU ALL fell for it - yes, many here did not, just using the term as all-encompassing.

I argued Trump should have fired Fauci after he flip-flopped on masks in early March 2020, but YOU would have flogged him for it.

160 The FDIC's standard playbook is to sell a troubled bank over a weekend. It keeps the assets and the buyer assumes the deposit liabilities less a premium for franchise value. Ironically, the franchise value is tied to the customer relationships represented by the deposit liabilities.

This has worked so well for relatively small troubled banks that you don't even hear about it. The premium paid by the buyer is usually enough to cover uninsured deposits.

Large troubled banks have other issues and create systemic risk.

SVB and First Republic had almost all uninsured deposits and less franchise value.

Not really. China had a population about 518 million in 1939, and around 15-20 million died during the War. Then they killed about a quarter million of each other during the civil war that followed.

Then they had the Great Leap Forward and lost about 40 million, maybe more. Then they had the comparatively non-lethal Cultural Revolution and lost 2-5 million more. So assuming no births, they were left with about 445 million people, pessimistically.

But from the War through to the mid 70s, the fertility rate was at least 4.5 and often much higher.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to resume sending busloads of migrants to Chicago Monday.

"We simply have no more shelters, spaces or resources," Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot wrote in letter to Abbott asking him to halt the plans.

AG @AGHamilton29 · 10h
If a major city like Chicago doesn’t have the resources to handle a tiny portion of the migrants coming in, how are much smaller cities in TX supposed to manage?

Maybe that means we should be treating this like a crisis & have policy changes that reflect that?

279 I truly fear the next election will be stolen. I see how Red States are passing laws that allow the Legislature or Governor to decide their States voting and I worry that one of them will be the crucial State to decide the Presidency.

The history of political take overs says the majority of the population will acquiesce.

I think eventually the US is splitting into two countries. Working together for some things but separate. The divide is far too great.

I see it splitting into multiple countries, like Yugoslavia. If that happens, Putin wins, and we can't have that happen!

The republicans are going to have to be very, very clever to steal as there will be so much scrutiny all around the nation because of the republican's history of cheating and vote suppression. We Dems will get out the vote and women all over are still upset over the abortion issue.

That is what is so dangerous about Trump's claims. Now no matter who loses the election we can no longer trust the results.

They can't find room for a Clarence Thomas exhibit (likely also no Thomas Sowell displays), but sure, let's pretend Trayvon Martin was a future astronaut whose life was unexpectedly cut short by some random white attacker.

Exit Question: Which side of his family (mom's or dad's) secured related t-shirt sales rights?

296 The exhibit will also include other notable items like the typewriter used by author Octavia Butler, Nona Hendryx's space suit-inspired outfit, and Nichelle Nichols' "Star Trek" uniform.

According to a press release from NMAAHC, the exhibit also aims to tell stories of Black liberation and social equality through objects such as Trayvon Martin's flight suit and dreams of becoming an astronaut as a young boy.

Tragically, the Smithsonian features only fictional accounts of AA "success" in America, when plenty of real stories of hard work and resulting success exist.

Demofascists believe in theatrical stories because cheap bullshit is easy and supports Disney.

297 JJ, listening to Candace Owens series on childhood scheduled vaccines is worth a listen. Well worth a listen.

It's a big Pharma scam.

Each "vaccine" gets on the schedule due to lobbying and shoddy (actual shit studies) "testing."

If I had it all to do over again, my kids would not receive even ONE vaccine.

Even polio.

298 Why would anyone worship Satan? He was the LOSER. Makes no sense.

For the soi Western progressive idiot, it means attacking that which is successful. To show how 'brave' they are 'talking truth to power' and all those other mouth noises.

In Islam, the Muslims got cheated Twice by Jews and hence why they are victims. But still they claim their Allah is the supreme being.

309 Steve Bannon has regularly had Naomi Wolfe on his show.

She has done DEEP dives into the covid vaccine and how it was rushed to market. It's horrifying what they knew and didn't tell.

I can see why an anti-vaccer on Trump's ticket would be necessary when Trump was a dumbass about it.

330 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J.

Early on, RFK jr. is pulling double digits. It takes from Joey could force the progressives to run separate ground games if Trump can run for the presidency again, regardless of what Klaim claims. And remember, Joe & dprof honey-mooned in the Hungarian People's Republic behind the Iron Curtain & on the taxpayer's dime, too.

Don't care for political trackers because objectivity often suffers but looked at Politifact's Campaign Promise Tracker for both our 10%er & PDT w/its record of promises kept, compromised, broken, stalled & in the works. When I think that from almost day one PDT was under impeachment, its surprising the impact he managed to have & where it was. Were some/many things BS? Sure but it runs wide & deep in politics. I'll also note at this point in time, I'm not in support of anyone at national level.

The Global Trends 'series' can be interesting. They're "A Dialogue About the Future with Nongovernment Experts" Reskimmed GT 2015 & looked at GT 2025 anew.

Aloha.
