The Morning Report — 6/27/23

Good morning kids. I've developed a theorem, which is for sure much more provable if not already a rock solid principle of the universe than "climate change." To wit:

The more outrageous the crime and the more backed up by evidence to prove it, the more likely it is that the Democrat-Leftist who committed it will skate.

Naturally, the inverse applies with equal and greater measure for non Democrat-Leftists and their designated enemies. This is not some great genius brainwave but merely what is obvious to anyone who has eyes to see and a brain function somewhere between yogurt and Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants. Yeah, we'll get to his latest magnum opus Kinsley gaffe in a second, but let's first illustrate the point with this "scoop" from fag-hag pinup boy Vanderbilt Poofter, also known as Anderson Cooper, who breathlessly reported:

Monday, CNN aired a recording of former President Donald Trump talking about “highly confidential, secret” documents at his club in Bedminster, NJ.
Cooper said, “We begin tonight with breaking news. We have obtained what is expected to be a central piece of the government’s case against Donald Trump, the actual audio recording of the former president talking as if he’s showing a highly classified document on US war plans against Iran with people not cleared to even know it exists, let alone what’s in it. In a moment only on CNN you will hear what jurors will hear one day.”
. . . The president was aware he was being recorded. It is the first time it is being played publicly.”
In an audio Trump said, “These are bad sick people.”
With the sound of papers moving, Trump continued, “With Milley, let me see that. I’ll show you an example. He said that I wanted to attack Iran. Isn’t it amazing? I have a big pile of papers, this thing just came up. Look. This was him. They presented me this. This is off the record, but they presented me this. This was him. This was the Defense Department and him. We looked at some. This wasn’t done by me. All sorts of stuff, pages long, look. Let’s see here. It’s that amazing This totally wins my case, you know. Except it is, like, highly confidential, secret. This is secret information. But look, look at this. You attack.”
Later in the audio, Trump said, “When I was president, I could have declassified it, now I can’t.”

First of all, it doesn't take a Dr. Bronowski to figure out that this Kathy Griffin sex toy "obtained" this evidence, which under anything resembling normal circumstances would have been kept under the strictest security conditions, by being handed it on a silver platter from Jack Smith, the prosecutor himself. Illegal or at least highly unethical, you say? That alone proves my theorem, or will prove it when Smith is not charged.

Second, it's audio. Vandy himself uses the phrase "talking as if he's showing classified documents." This is the equivalent of rebroadcasting Orson Welles as proof of a Martian invasion in Grovers Mill, NJ. I'm no legal expert but I can't see, pun intended, how this proves the crime, even if Trump supposedly states it's classified. Remember, he's a blusterer.

Third, and it's an aside but IIRC, Trump was averse to using blunt military force to attack Iran. It was Vanilli Milley and the warmongers that were hot and horny to do it, probably in direct opposition to the Jew-hating Farsi fanatics of Foggy Bottom.

Fourth, how do we even know that this recording has not been edited to death, a la the George Zimmerman 911 phonecall or NBC's exploding gas tanks or Iran's photoshopped missiles? How do we even know this phone call isn't fake to begin with? The bottom line for me is Trump had it within his purview until noon on 1/20/21 to declassify whatever the hell he wanted. Period, end of story.

Meh, I can go on and on into realms of speculation, but this is exactly what the propagandists are doing and have been doing since forever. And that is being extremely charitable to individuals who deserve a one way trip to visit the Titanic, without submarine, via a one way ride on Aerolineas Pinochet sans parachute.

What they are trying to establish is that Trump had Sandy Berger magic underwear the size of an 18-wheeler in which he purloined secret documents that were never declassified. Does this make any sense at all? Look, Donald Trump can sometimes or even many times be dumb. But for sure he ain't stupid.

Recall back in the halcyon days (daze) of 2016 when Donald Trump uttered the famous words: "Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing."

This, of course, is the reference to then 2016 Dem presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in the wake of it being discovered – with absolutely ZERO help from the media – that she kept an illegal and un-secure server farm in her Chappaqua home with actual classified documents and e-mails on them from her time as Secretary of State. Considering the value of this information to foreign governments, and considering her and her husband's track record of pay-for-play in the trading of these secrets, you're talking about enough evidence to hang them both about a hundred times over.

But what did the media focus in on? Here's what the NY Times "reporters" wrote in reaction to Trump's damning joke.

"It was an extraordinary encouragement of a foreign powers' espionage."

Really? A joke? Told in the clear to an audience of millions? This is like saying "BE SURE TO DRINK YOUR OVALTINE" is the equivalent of the blueprints to the atom bomb dead-dropped in the dark by Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. And yet, it was the basis for the Russia Collusion smear campaign that lasted for years, and continues to bamboozle the uninformed despite it being completely and begrudgingly debunked in the media. Again, the Sefton theorem in operation.

And with that rather rambling preamble (but I think it really needed the setup ), dig this latest flash of truth, from a mouth that's more twisted than a Picasso portrait, from Joey Choo-Choo:

At a meeting with India’s Prime Minister Modi on Friday, President Biden said something shocking. So shocking that he quickly added that he was joking. But because the “joke” came as he trailed off his words on another subject, one wonders how calculated it was, or if it was a thought that popped into his addled mind:
Biden: “I was just thanking the — anyway, I started off without you, and I sold a lot of state secrets and a lot of very important things that we shared.”
Watch the 14 seconds again, and focus on PM Modi’s face as he hears the shocking words. . . and then smiles as he realizes it is a joke. . .
. . . it’s a very odd joke to make, especially in the presence of the head of government of a rising technology state, one that does not have China’s reputation for technology theft, but which nonetheless must be sensitive about people thinking that it is stealing US intellectual; property. I doubt that PM Modi was amused to even have the possibility of IP theft raised as he sat next to the POTUS.
It was stupid thing to joke about, and appears to have been one of those times when Joe’s internal censor failed him.

Umm, that was no joke. That was sundowning. But let's say it was a joke. Okay. Let's compare and contrast

TRUMP: "Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing."

SHECKY BIDEN: "I sold a lot of state secrets and a lot of very important things that we shared.”

We know how the Times reacted to the former. What do you suppose their reaction will be to the latter? That is a rhetorical question naturally. And they will spin faster than a gaggle of dervishes inside a Farsi uranium enrichment plant full of centrifuges.

The reason for Vandy's breathless reportage of at best sketchy audio about unseen video? Because there are way too many leaks in the dike about the Bidens' blatant, massive, treasonous criminality for them to plug. Treasonous criminality that involves actual state secrets that Biden absolutely beyond any doubt had no right to keep when he was VP and even before that when a mere Senator. Proof that he was shaking down foreign businessmen and governments and selling his office for profit to anyone and everyone including our worst enemies. Delaware garages and think tank offices full of them. Yet nothing but crickets and/or insulting excuses from the propaganda mills.

It is coming out bit by bit, perhaps soon to be in a torrent. Intentional to take him out before 2024? And all things considered, will it really matter vis a vis the election rigging and fraud that is sure to deny VA, GA and WI to the GOP; the three states they must win to get to the minimum EVs (electoral votes, not electric vehicles)?

I just realized, the propaganda machine for sure is going into overdrive to destroy Trump but at the same time they seem to want to derail Biden. Pfft.

I now think that the *only* thing that was keeping the factions in line was the risk that the president would fire their asses if they moved too far without approval.

Don't expect things to make much sense at the moment. The Complex will settle on an actual boss-man (official or unofficial) who can whip them into line, or it will blast itself apart. An unbalanced wheel can't spin ever-faster without disintegrating.

During the COVID stupids, that was pretty common in Denver. People would steal the plates off your car (especially if you parked on the street) and there was no way to replace them because a bunch of services were suspended. So people would print out a sheet reading something like, "STOLEN TAGS - NUMBER 123-XYZ" or scrawl it across a hunk of cardboard.

Those were the good old days. Now in Denver, they'll just steal the whole car.

95 There's not much question that the wealth of this country, the power of this country was built in significant part — not exclusively, maybe not even the majority of it — but a large portion of it was built on the backs of slaves[.]

North had 25 million pop vs. 9 million in South. GDP was about 4x per person North vs. South. North GDP has to be somewhere around 12x to 16x South. So whatever they built, it was not worth much.

Actual transcript? "Maybe you can look into that [why Hunter was appointed to Burisma]?"

But, it doesn't matter: The Dems wanted to believe that was a demand to "manufacture dirt." And so it was.
Here, that they want to believe it means Trump knew he had the documents illegally.

Stop being a hater. It's *everything,* okay? The historical stain of slavery means that everything is downstream from it. Without the slaves, there was no country! They even enshrined this in the Constitution when they legally declared that slaves were less than People - in fact, the white supremacists who wrote that document went so far as to calculate the value of a slave: a mere 3/5 of a free person.

So don't go telling me that some GDP number somehow rescues a slave state or lessens its crimes. Your statistics may be facts, but they are not truth. You cannot boil down a slave society to a number on a page. Slavery and racism permeated the very fabric of American society, as racism still does today. Your cavalier and ill-informed attempts to distract from the reality of it is why radical change is needed to end the perpetuation of that system.

It can be leftist and still be nationalists. The fascists are a great example of that.

The battle isn't between left and non-left or communist and anticommunist, it's the old battle between the internationalists and non-internationalists. There is no truly nationalist faction that I can see from the outside, but some of them are true globalists while others are more pragmatic about internationalism. The pragmatists will probably win by default because the globalist order is in the process of cracking up with or without them.

What were the collections and the evasion losses before switching to cashless tolling? Are they higher or lower now? Toll evasion is not new, it's just a new form of it. How effective is it? Are gross receipts up or down?

They even push that shit here even though Canada [created 1867]; the two biggest colonies that Canada was based on [1841]; and the two earlier colonies [1791] abolished the trade and slavery itself before Britain herself [1804 and 1834 IIRC] including the colony that would become Ontario banning the trade in 1793 [that was pretty much de facto abolition] even beating Revolutionary France to it I've read.

165 It's a documented fact that the municipalities and businesses that own/install/maintain the cameras (and share the revenue) reduced the yellow light times when people weren't adequately running red lights.

It's why honest municipalities (there are a few, here and there) took out red light cameras. They increased accidents. Sometimes because they shortened the yellows, sometimes because people would flatly refuse to run a red even if it was safer to skirt the red than slam on the brakes to stop in time (it often is). The collisions that increase at red light camera intersections are rear-end accidents where the car behind can't stop in time when the car ahead stands on the brake to avoid triggering the camera.

No date, but I personally think it will be a manufactured energy crisis. Stay home, don't turn on the lights or run the HVAC. No traveling. Odd/even grocery shopping and only for certain items. A "real lockdown."

Assuming that any given one is the culprit or any given potential variation of the scheme is the eugenics crowd finally making their big move in consequence has a lot of potential error.

217 Fourth is the cost of regulations. People tend to think they are free. They are most definitely not. Think of the cost of the legislators and staff, analysts, reviewers, agents, accountants, consultants, implementing bureaucrats, overseers, and compliance officers. Nearly half of all healthcare spending goes to bureaucracy, consumed by the regulatory process.

My guess is it over 60% of the cost of college.

247 What's the Republican excuse now that audio has been released? No way he can beat this. It’s clear he was showing military secrets!

Hunter Biden. Hillary Clinton, rinse, repeat. Maybe it was a product of the fake tape department at witch-hunt headquarters?

He was President so could do anything he wanted. Nothing a President does is illegal. Except for Biden, who does everything illegally.

He gave a preemptive defense last week in his "I am pathologically incapable of shutting my mouth" Fox interview. "There were no documents, OK. I had lots of papers..I had copies of newspaper articles, I had copies of magazines"...."I didn't have a document per se"...case dismissed, right???

I believe the official response is to impeach Garland
Someone other than TFG has to be responsible for something according to them.

Trumpublicans will love him even if GOP leadership declared they no longer supported him. Their only escape was during the Senate impeachment trial. If 10 more Senate Republicans had voted to convinct, he'd be banned from running again.

No, they're saying they can't treat you. Here's the thing, and all of these lunatics who cut their dicks off should understand it in advance.

When you have this procedure, you don't get female genitals. I hate to break it to you, but you don't. What you get is a *wound.* A woman's vulva, vagina, etc. are not wounds. They are natural orifices with their own care regimens. Wounds are different and like all wounds, they have different care regimens. A gynecologist isn't going to know what to do with a crotch wound, because it isn't at all the same.

What you need for your ongoing post-op care is not a gynecologist, but a wound-care specialist. Sorry, but it is what it is. What you have is not a vagina and vulva, but an open wound. Go to a doctor that knows how to deal with open wounds.

The name brands won't survive such a scheme. There will still be multiple choices in the stores, they'll just all be the same things because what you *actually* want is illegal. The brands will still be there and the companies that own those brands will still market them and make profits and losses and trade on the stock exchange.

The Inner Party stores will just have the stuff they've proscribed for the proles. This is how it is in Red China, where there is an entire Party Agriculture system. If you're a top Party member in Red China, you can go to your own special supermarkets and get the good stuff. The produce and meat come from good, properly-run farms and is of high-quality and non-toxic. The prepared and packaged foods come from production lines with different oversight to ensure quality instead of substitutions and crap. Being a top-dog Party member is pretty nice.

282 MP4, who, in your opinion, was the most attractive silent-film actress?
Posted by: Bulgaroctonus at June 27, 2023 09:25 AM (7EUFd)

That's an excellent question, and of course, it depends on both period and personal taste. But I would certainly have to put Jewel Carmen right up in my top five, along with Clara Bow, Pola Negri, Miriam Battista and Miss DuPont.

285 Almond milk. Oat milk. They're not milk. They taste like whatever they want it to taste like and you damn sure can't cook with it.

It ain't milk.

It'll be the trendiest fucking milk ever, and the kids will spend $14 a cup of it on campus while bemoaning student loans and how communism will save them from their crippling debt.

For sure. "I want a national divorce" is the battle cry of the terminally impotent. Most of the guys you'll hear whimpering it have already taken it up the back exit from a real divorce lawyer, and ought to know better. It's the incel equiv of warmongering, or coolongering at least. War and divorce are not things you wish for.

290 Tried to watch some TV Tube last night. There was nothing that caught my interest. Did watch a little of the Zodiac movie. I've seen parts of it but was not interested in seeing more. The problem with that movie is there are too many male actors that look the same with too many subplots within them to keep things straight. Also, too many scenes with too much back noise or echoes. Tough one to follow given the story line.

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

Build a monarchy, e.g.

Presidents, members of congress & other elected officials don't go through a traditional background investigation process. The guidelines that apply to the typical security clearance holder do not apply to elected officials - incoming or outgoing. Presidents are also not "read in" or "read out" of classified matters.

Hunt serves as Chairman, World Food Program USA, 2011-2015

The White House: FACT SHEET: U.S. Support for Civil Society. In September 2013, President Obama launched Stand with Civil Society, a global call to action to support, defend, and sustain civil society ...

June '15, OPM announced data breaches in 2013, 2014. +/- 22.1 million records of employees, contractors, families & associates including personal data such as fingerprints, health financial and criminal records, etc.

July '14, CIA Director Brennan issued an apology to leaders of the US Senate intelligence committee conceding that the agency employees spied on committee staff.

2/5/21 - Per FJB, PDT should not receive intelligence briefings customary for former presidents. ("Erratic" Trump...)

292 The American Thinker article on transparency in healthcare costs is ridiculous. The author argues that publishing the costs of procedures would do nothing to bring the prices down. Of course this argument is made assuming nothing else will change and that business will be done exactly as it is now. Cost transparency is essential as the first step to bringing healthcare prices in line.

There are many things that can and should be done, but price transparency is the single most important thing and needs to be done first. There is no market without price discovery.
