The Morning Report — 5/17/23

bobbingand.jpg

Good morning, kids. Yesterday, we reported on Senator Josh Hawley calling for "the end of the FBI as we know it," essentially demanding change in leadership. Over on the other side of the Capitol, Marjorie Taylor has called for the Bennie Hinn-coiffured scalp of the director.

“Under Wray’s watch, the FBI has intimidated, harassed, and entrapped American citizens that have been deemed enemies of the Biden regime. As such, Director Wray has turned the FBI into Joe Biden and Merrick Garland’s personal police force.

The Soviet-style tactics used by the FBI against normal Americans are unprecedented in this country. FBI whistleblower Garret O’Boyle told congressional investigators that the FBI created a terrorist threat tag following the Dobbs Supreme Court decision in 2022. O’Boyle confirmed that the purpose of the tag was to target pro-life individuals. On September 23, 2022, armed FBI agents in tactical gear raided the family home of Mark Houck, a pro-life Catholic and father of 7 young children, because he obstructed access to an abortion clinic,” Greene’s office said in a statement. . .

. . . “Not only has Director Wray persecuted political opponents in an unprecedented and partisan way, but he has also overseen his agency take actions to shield and protect the current President and his family. A senior FBI official left the agency under a cloud of accusations that he shielded a laptop belonging to the President’s son, Robert Hunter Biden, from a criminal probe,” Greene’s office said.

“It is unacceptable for the Director of the FBI or any civil officer to exercise his power in a way that targets one political class while doing favors for the other,” they continued.

I only excerpted her communiqué but MTG is 1,000% correct, but let's just hold this for a moment as we go to another Reichsministerium creating havoc and chaos via our southern border.

“He should be impeached as soon as humanly possible,” Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) told reporters on Tuesday.

Rep. Ben Cline (R-VA) told Breitbart News, “I support beginning impeachment hearings. I’ve said that to chairman [Jim] Jordan. My constituents think it’s long overdue, and I feel as though once we lay out the facts for the American people and for my colleagues in the House, it’ll be inevitable.”

Rep. Barry Moore (R-AL) said in a statement, “Mayorkas has done more to help the cartels and child traffickers than he has to help the American people. It is clear he is intentionally violating the law and he must be impeached.”

The calls come after the Biden [junta] lifted the Title 42 border protection last week, which followed at least two consecutive days of border officials apprehending more than 10,000 illegal migrants per day, the highest single-day totals ever recorded, Fox News observed.

Overall, under Mayorkas’s watch, officials have apprehended more than five million illegal migrants at the southern border, not including an estimated 1.5 million gotaways [sic].

Dismissing calls for his impeachment, Mayorkas told CNN over the weekend, “I am focused on the work in front of us. … I will continue to focus on [DHS’s] work throughout my tenure.”

I'll just bet you are, considering your "work" is the obliteration of our national sovereignty, identity and culture. Crucially important as addressing this is, it's beside the point I want to make regarding both these criminals. So, you impeach Wray and you impeach Mayorkas. What does that really accomplish? How many thousands of nameless mid-level to senior level bureaucrats who talk, think and act exactly like those two tits do you think are there, ready, willing and able to take their place?

Like Lois Lerner and John Koskinen before them, they don't necessarily have to be told what to do by Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants or whoever is shoving the words into his cake hole to spit back. They know what he wants because since the time of the New Deal and for sure The Great Society, they and those in every other unconstitutional bureaucracy, agency and department collectively have been the de-facto rulers of this country and as such, have been the drivers of the Leftist agenda that Grampa Daughter-Doucher, as well as every president since LBJ to greater or lesser extents with the exception of Reagan and Trump, has served as figurehead.

This is why not only the DOJ, DOD and CIA were Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama's co-conspirators as proven and underscored in the Durham Report in the attempt to take Trump out in 2016 but every single department in Washington DC committing covert and sometimes overt acts of insubordination and mutiny in derailing his presidency, culminating in the rigging and then outright theft of the 2020 election.

Trump, as a businessman and true outsider, ran to drain the swamp which he correctly saw as impeding our growth and prosperity at home, and our stature and national security abroad. What he did not see, and really very few of us saw was just how deep and dark that swamp was. The irony is that his greatest achievement, unintentional for sure, was his political assassination at the hands of 9.1 million Eichmanns, little and not so little, that collectively make up the Leviathan. That is, his presence and goals being what revealed this monster for all of us who had eyes to see to recognize and admit its existence.

Impeach Wray and Mayorkas? Even Biden? What good will that do? You are going to have to "impeach" all of DC and every single blue statehouse and legislature, along with the RINO stooges who do their bidding.

I do not see elections, even those that yield legitimate results if those are to ever happen again, as being a solution here. The rot and corruption in government is merely, pace Andrew Breitbart, downstream from the source of the contamination: the schools and the culture. That is going to take time to address – at least a few decades – and we simply are running out of it. And that even assumes that the same kind of evil bastards who run the schools are going to simply hand over control. In fact, they not only do not recognize the absolute authority of parents, but consider parents who object to what is being taught as akin to child abusers and terrorists.

A Hernando County, FL parent is upset about a Winding Waters K-8 school fifth-grade teacher showing her students a pro-LGBTQ Disney movie.

The parent, Shannon Rodriguez, protested fifth-grade teacher Jenna Barbee’s decision during a local school board meeting.

“It is not a teacher’s job to impose their beliefs upon a child, religious, sexual orientation, gender identity, any of the above,” Rodriguez said. “But allowing movies such as this assist teachers in opening a door — and please hear me — they assist teachers in opening a door for conversations that have no place in our classrooms.”

Barbee begged to differ. During an appearance on “CNN This Morning,” the fifth-grade teacher argued parents were stripped of their rights when the child entered a public school system.

“We had played that for the viewers in the introduction, but I just want to give you a chance to respond,” host Poppy Harlow said.

“Yes, so, that’s — what she’s missing and what these parents are missing is, they’re not in the school system. That just shows me that she’s ignorant and has not come and volunteered at all because our — these conversations, these doors, they’re open. These students have one-to-one devices. The amount of things that they’re able to pull up that we have to shut down, they – they — these conversations, these doors that she’s talking about, that’s telling you I’m stripping her rights as a parent, those rights are gone when your child is in the public school system because there are students talking about these things. It’s where they get 90 percent of their socialization for the day. And we can’t shut down every conversation every child has.”

Emphasis mine. Barbee, as in Klaus?

"Impeach." With extreme prejudice.

10 The United Nations officially hosted the Palestinians yesterday for "Nakba" remembrances, condemning the "Disaster" that is Israel. New York City was forced to be the host. So much evil all in one place, and (according the the corrupt terrorists in the Palestinian Authority, its mostly America's fault.

"Britain and the United States specifically bear political and ethical responsibility directly for the Nakba of the Palestinian people because they took part in rendering our people victims when they decided to establish and implant another entity in our historic homeland for their own colonial goals and objectives," Abbas said.

11 So there was a researcher that studies 4000 court cases on terrorism. He was able to get the full records on 1100. Of those 71 were cases of white supremacist domestic terrorism. And about half those cases were white on white crime (probably family).

So way less than 5%. Again I say we have a Big Govt that likes to focus on 2% problems.

12 Picasso: ‘quite adorable’ dog in ‘wonderful red bow’ discovered in painting

The animal was hidden underneath a patch of dark paint in Le Moulin de la Galette, completed by the Spanish artist when he was 19 years old in 1900. It was discovered recently when experts used modern imaging technology on the painting, revealing a brown dog wearing a red bow around its neck.

“What we know is that in many instances, Picasso painted aspects of the composition and then subsequently obliterated them and transformed them into other compositional elements. This was really part of his practice,” she [Julie Barten; Guggenheim sr. conservator] said.

She likened the dog to a “lingering ghost”, pointing out that viewers can see it with the naked eye if they look closely enough.

“There’s red paint showing through in areas and if you look really closely you can see the eyes and the ears. You can see that, when concealing it, he actually left the contour of the head still visible,” she said.

18 Pompeii Sites @pompeii_sites · May 16
New discovery: two skeletons found beneath a collapsed wall in #Pompeii.

Turmoil, confusion, attempted escapes and, in the meantime, an earthquake, showers of pumice, volcanic ash and hot gases.

This was the inferno of the eruption of AD 79, the living hell in which the inhabitants of the ancient city of Pompeii found themselves, including the two victims whose skeletons were recently discovered during the excavation of the insula of the House of the Chaste Lovers.

They were the victims of an earthquake that accompanied the eruption, discovered beneath a wall that had collapsed between the final phase of the deposition of pumice and prior to the arrival of the pyroclastic flows that buried Pompeii for good.

53 Saint of the Day
Blessed Antonia Mesina (1919-1935) was one of ten children born to a poor family on the island of Sardinia. She had to leave school to help with the family chores after her mother became bedridden, a task which she accepted with obedience, humility, and joy. Antonia's mother referred to her daughter as "the flower of my life." Antonia was also active in her parish, joining the Young Women of Catholic Action organization at the age of ten. On May 17, 1935, while in the forest with a friend gathering firewood, Antonia was assaulted by a teenage boy who attempted to rape her. Her friend ran for help while Antonia bravely defended herself against her attacker. The young man, unable to achieve his goal due to her continuous resistance, brutally attacked Antonia with dozens of blows with a rock. By the time help arrived, it was too late. Antonia died at the age of sixteen. The entire town accompanied her body to the site of her burial. She is considered a martyr of sexual purity, and was beatified by Pope St. John Paul II in 1987. Blessed Antonia Messina is the patron of rape victims. Her feast day is May 17th.

Partly. They dropped the masks (and continue to do so) as they feel that their power is more secure. The Left has always had the masks. This is always who they were. They just realized they had to hide that in order to both recruit fodder, but also in order to get elected. As they believe they have more and more power, the need to recruit fodder turns to other avenues and means and the need to get elected is no longer a consideration.

Why hide any more?

It could be accelerated, but that would require courage among the non-Uniparty crowd in Congress. That crowd is neither large enough nor brave enough to undertake such a mission.

But it won't take decades. We don't have decades. We have a decade (plus or minus a bit) before things start falling apart in earnest. We're stalled and descending fast, albeit from a *very* high altitude. We are not moments from impact yet, but we are firmly into the dive. As the money runs out and things start to fracture, things will change. It may change for the worse (that's entirely possible), but it will not be this. We won't be able to afford it, if nothing else.

Ah, so the "doors" between school and child are open, but the "doors" between parent and school aren't just closed, they don't even exist. The problem as such is in fact the presence of "doors" of any kind between child and non-school. We need total control and full censorship of students to *really* achieve the goal.

Or am I misreading that?

They just realized they had to hide that in order to both recruit fodder, but also in order to get elected. As they believe they have more and more power, the need to recruit fodder turns to other avenues and means and the need to get elected is no longer a consideration.

He was an obvious outsider and he threatened one of the legs- the military kickback industry. Not to mention being skeptical of the entire apparat.

He had to go because he is the first who actually acted more like a small government guy than we have had since... fuck. Goldwater, but he did not exactly make it to the big chair. There is no way they could let that kind of thought take root, so it HAD to be nipped in the bud.

This is a similar reaction to the Palin thing. Love her or hate her, the reaction was almost exactly the same after she just gave one speech. It was the idea of what she was saying and that she was a charismatic individual that HAD to be destroyed.

84 Pay attention to what she actually says here:

“Yes, so, what she’s missing and what these parents are missing is, they’re not in the school system. That just shows me that she’s ignorant and has not come and volunteered at all these conversations, these doors, they’re open. These students have one-to-one devices. The amount of things that they’re able to pull up that we have to shut down, these conversations, these doors that she’s talking about, that’s telling you I’m stripping her rights as a parent, those rights are gone when your child is in the public school system because there are students talking about these things. It’s where they get 90 percent of their socialization for the day. And we can’t shut down every conversation every child has.”

The teacher is not saying that parents have no rights. She says the parents are not volunteering in the school, they are not getting themselves involved. Their kids all have smartphones, and TikTok, and talk to each other about LGBTQ bullshit, and the teachers are left to try to sort it out and answer questions.

Well, yes and no...Yes, parents should be more involved in what media their students consume via their devices.

But that doesn't change the fact that schools are actively involved in keeping a number of doors open for students (Church of Satan, transgenderism, LGBTQ+, abortion, etc.), while slamming the door shut on other issues (Christianity, abstinence, pro-life, reading/writing/arithmetic, etc.).

What this teacher is saying is absolutely true. There is no way that a two-income household has the capacity to sow more into their kids than a school does. If you have 168 hours in a week, one-third of those hours are spent sleeping. Another 50 hours are spent either working or commuting to work. The waking hours of the weekends are spent either doing chores or watching kids play sports. Not a lot of time left to inculcate family values. Schools have kids' undivided attention for the majority of their waking week.

One thing about the spending is that while Trump (like Reagan) was enthusiastic about the spending, I wonder if there is a missing piece here: If you are doing spending and NOT in conflict, is the spending the same (on R&D, maintenance, etc) the same as when you do that PLUS are actively using the munitions so it is not just about producing new stuff, but setting up a churn to where you are also replacing the stuff that is being used?

We've been fed a lie for well over 100 years that wasn't true. That school boards, elected by the parents, would prevent that.

It's sole intention is to educate just enough to comply without question. To make you a cog, a drone in their factories.

When confronted with a gang, take out their leader first - or are you going to whine about hypotheticals "what does that really accomplish"?

Here is a chance to say "You are not too big to jail"
But it is also not a "Well you got the chief, we are out of the woods now" in the exact same way that taking out Putin doesn't mean that Russia becomes a model nation, but it allows for a different kind of thug to fill in.

149 What It Means To Have a Heart

********

ACOG [American College of OB/Gyn] states further, “What pregnant people may hear is the ultrasound machine translating electronic pulses that signify fetal cardiac activity into the sound that we recognize as a heartbeat.”

This statement is a blatant lie, a misrepresentation of what an ultrasound does. ACOG is trying to split hairs saying that if valves and chambers have not reached an identifiable physical appearance that cardiac activity can not exist.

An ultrasound functions by sending high frequency sound waves into body tissues and then "listening" for the rebound of those sound waves (an echo). The sound waves are shifted when they reflect off moving tissues (blood and muscle) and generate a signal that is detectable and measurable. Electrical signals have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with what the U/S detects.

The last voter did not complete her ballot until 8:25! She took at least 1/2 hour to fill out her ballot! There were 9 of us standing around waiting for her to stop putzing around and finish. It was a major "WTF? moment." She must have waited until she got there in the last minutes to start her research. I was pissed.

This is "go broke, get woke" in action. This movie probably sucks. Nobody went to see it. So they're looking to stir up some controversy and get some hate views to pad the revenue because it's already a dead weight on the books.

Nothing else makes sense. Putting a creepy dude in a dress (and Mulvaney seems to actively cultivate creepiness on purpose) front and center to promote what is, if memory of the book serves, a girls' coming-of-age tale makes no sense. It wouldn't even make sense to the Woke. His "year of girlhood" does not make him a good candidate to promote a story like that and they probably know it. They're baiting controversy and hoping to ride the wave into a few dollars more courtesy of that controversy to make the losses a bit smaller.

meanwhile ... interesting that with all the hoopla here only 23 percent of Philadelphia voters bothered to vote at all? What what what?

but they turn out 100-plus percent for national elections? how can this be?! are they just super lazy at some times?


I heard on KYW radio pre-election some city official discussing how they wanted a clean election and to report any issues. Maybe they know that people are going to go over the results with a fine toothed comb and compare them to 2020 and 2022.

Without even breaking out a calculator or spreadsheet I can tell you that 2020 and 2022 set records for Philly fraud that impacted both Federal and state contests.

Education is to grow healthy adults. Why the F would I want them learning how to be adults from other children?

There is no evidence or studies that show a home schooled child from a traditional family with an active church engagement is worse "socially" than the public school dreck.

The "awkward" kid everyone "knows" is because of home school I guarantee was made that way by the bullying shits they were forced to be around.

I wasn't home schooled and I don't have kids in home school. But I know public schools are a scam and theft of our children and our taxes.

||WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — New Zealand police said Wednesday they believe a fire that killed at least six people in a Wellington hostel was arson and launched a homicide investigation.

Police Inspector Dion Bennett said they haven’t yet arrested anybody but they have a list of people they want to speak to and hope to quickly identify any suspects or persons of interest. He declined to say if they had found accelerant or other evidence of criminal behavior at the scene.

Police said there had been a couch fire at the Loafers Lodge hostel about two hours before the large, fatal fire on Tuesday. They said the couch fire was not reported to emergency services at the time, and they were investigating to see if there was any link between the two fires.|| sock link

Posted by: JROD at May 17, 2023 08:45 AM (IlL6s)

I don't care about Trump's 'personality', 'mean tweets', or 'tendencies toward obnoxity'. At the beginning, middle and end of the day, Trump was an innocent man persecuted by the media, Democrats and government because he committed the unforgiveable sin of loving America and wanting to devote the last portion of his life to restoring it to greatness. If I'm innocent, and persecuted in the way he was, I would react in exactly the same way he is. We all experienced W's persecution, and how he handled it. IIRC, we pretty much thought that wasn't the way to handle it.

If we as a political party will allow an innocent man to be treated the way Trump's been treated, we don't deserve him.

295 Dianne Feinstein does not remember that she's been gone from the Senate. When a reporter asked her what the response from her colleagues had been like since her return, though, the conversation took an odd turn.

“No, I haven’t been gone,” she said. “You should follow the—I haven’t been gone. I’ve been working.”

When asked whether she meant that she’d been working from home, she turned feisty. “No, I’ve been here. I’ve been voting,” she said. “Please. You either know or don’t know.”


this suggests someone else is the reason she has not resigned. Worse yet, we may have a case of elder abuse here. Someone on her staff or in her family does not have her best interests at heart.

the elder abuse conspiracy looks to have started in the comments section of the Daily Mail. That’s the level of tackiness that has now infected the Feinstein haters who want her to hand over her senate seat.

I have plenty I could criticize about his term but for the most part it was excellent. I was wrong about the guy. Though I do not think we are going to have a fair up-n-up election in 24', I still support him. Of course my support is conditional and quite frankly not thrilled with some of the things he's said, done or not done. The townhall thing last week reminds me of why I love the guy. Either way IMO we're all just along for the ride and I hold my breath waiting to see if the guy gets thrown behind bars.

330 Twenty-four Republican governors have responded to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s call for help to secure its border with Mexico.

“The federal government’s response handling the expiration of Title 42 has represented a complete failure of the Biden Administration,” the governors said in a joint statement, referring to the end of the public health authority, Title 42, which expired at midnight on May 11.

Title 42 allowed for the quick expulsion of foreign nationals who’d entered the U.S. illegally during the COVID-19 pandemic. With its end, an estimated 150,000 foreign nationals from all over the world are waiting in Mexico to illegally enter the U.S. at any moment, border officials say.

This is after at least more than 7 million people have been apprehended or reported evading capture by law enforcement since President Joe Biden’s been in office.

Well, maybe the last one isn't evolution.

349 Common pheasant are not native to USA, they are from Eurasia. The biggest pheasant numbers I ever experienced was in Riverdale, the Bronx, right on the Hudson River. I would walk a neighbor's dog, because they didn't have much time for him and he loved to go on the trails through the woods. We would sometimes flush 8 or 10 in a walk. Lovely birds-lovely place.

I've been told they require a particular mix of minerals they'd normally get from pecking at rocks/pebbles. Here in my part of Kentucky there are no such minerals, thus no pheasants. But they do exist south of here, near the TN border.

359 Disgraced Theranos founder and convicted fraudster Elizabeth Holmes looks bound for prison time after an appeals court Tuesday rejected her bid to remain free while she tries to overturn her conviction in a blood-testing scam.

The former Silicon Valley star has also been ordered to pay $452 million in restitution to the victims of her crimes – including $125 million to Rupert Murdoch, one of her biggest investors, AP reports.

Others in line for repayment include Walgreens, an early investor in the startup after agreeing to provide some of the flawed blood tests in its pharmacies in 2013. The company is entitled to $40 million, the judge ruled.

371 Good morning, all, and thank you, J.J.

Delco PA news: Boyd wins 163rd; Democrats keep PA House majority.

Boyd was the district director for U.S. Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, D-PA. The House District seat was "vacated" by Mike Zabel after he was accused of sexual harassment. Her opponent was Army vet Katie Ford, a special education therapist for children; Ford had neither campaigned for nor against abortion. Boyd's platform was largely women's rights to privacy & abortion. Boyd's victory means first-term democratic Governor Shapiro will have agenda support, plus...

Yesterday, President Biden endorsed Boyd saying, in part, "With control of the PA House of Representatives on the line, this race will determine the future of so many fundamental freedoms ..." The bottom-line, this little election in one PA county, has big implications once again.

Also, the 'lid' was lifted last evening & Biden, w/o telling the press, took off for the 2023 EMILY's List national gala in D.C., honoring Nan Pelosi. Special guests & Rising Star Award recipients have significance.

Good day

For 50 years beginning in the 1870's Japan was internationally famous for their slavish copying of European institutions, including the Imperial German constitution.
