The Morning Report — 8/29/23

koolaidhess.jpg

Good morning, kids. As the beatdown continues with no signs of the morale improving, there was a link from yesterday that underscores where we are and what we are facing. It comes out of the effete trou à tarte (pie-hole to you knuckle-draggers) of famed ketchup gigolo and egomaniac extraordinaire John Kerry.

The corporate state is intent, apparently, on ramping up its propaganda against so-called “climate deniers,” presumably to set the rhetorical groundwork for more extreme legal and social action against them in the future. So it dispatched something called its “climate envoy,” John Kerry, to Scotland with that aim. . . Here is the most incendiary portion of his comments:

Without facts or economics on their side, they flatly deny what is happening to our planet and what we must do to save it. They incite a movement against what they falsely label ‘climate change fanaticism,’ as they conveniently forget that the dictionary definition of a cult is the dismissal of facts in devotion to a lie. . .

. . . And while they refuse to accept the facts behind increasingly obvious damages, which the First Minister listed, they lash out at the truth-tellers instead, and label indisputable evidence as hysteria. They compound the already difficult challenge of the climate crisis, by promising to do more of exactly what created this crisis in the first place. So now, humanity is inexorably threatened by humanity itself, by those seducing people into buying into a completely fictitious, alternative reality, where we don’t need to act and we don’t even need to care.

Let’s take the phrase “inexorably threatened” and parse it a bit. Per Merriam-Webster, “inexorable” means “not to be persuaded, moved, or stopped.” What he’s saying — the reason his handlers chose that descriptor — is that there is no longer any need to try to persuade the public of their climate change scam because the “deniers” are individuals who cannot be reasoned with. On a societal level, what does one do with an existential threat that cannot be reasoned with because words are meaningless to it? One goes to war with it.

Humanity, for the record, is, in fact, inexorably threatened by humanity itself in a very real and meaningful sense, but the threat is posed not by “climate change” deniers but by technocrats like John Kerry (assuming he is actually human and not a demonic entity wearing a skinsuit).

John Kerry has made a career out of being a liar, buffoon, hypocrite and wrong about virtually every critical policy position, foreign and domestic, that there can be. His execrable blood-libeling of the average American soldier serving in Vietnam (a war for profit that his party pimped) notwithstanding, it's easy to laugh at his utter Frasier Crane-esque snobbish buffoonery. But we are no longer living in a land where even the most gossamer thin of legal and political safeguards, traditions and custom are in operation. He and others of his ilk are at the figurative and now literal whip-hand with absolutely zero compunction about cracking it.

And with everything else going on, at least we thought this madness was behind us. But here we are, breathing a sigh of relief like Ripley climbing into the suspended animation chamber aboard the Nostromo escape pod, wearing nothing but panties and a nipple-revealing t-shirt, when suddenly . . .

Just in time for back-to-school, not to mention the start of the 2024 presidential primaries, the drabs and trollops of the Corporate Media have begun beating the drums for the Biden regime and the CDC/Big Pharma shills to announce the Return of the Black Death, aka Covid. If you liked the Covid Hoax the first time, you're going to love the redux. The Thing that Destroyed the Trump Administration, ruined our election system, smashed the American economy, wiped out two or three years of schooling, and effectively repealed the First Amendment -- not because of disease, mind you, but via bureaucratic fiat -- now wants back in our lives. . .

. . . The first rumblings started a few weeks ago, but now have mutated into a steady murmur. Like the wannabe screenwriters they at heart are, the media hacks start by planting an idea, gently nourishing it through the rumor stage, spread it around to other outlets to create the illusion of a trend, then start quoting each other to give the story "independent corroboration," and then, like the chestburster in Alien, joyously proclaim its arrival . . .

. . . Still, some doctors are already decrying the possibility:

Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo harshly criticized COVID-19 mask mandates and lockdowns, and urged people to consider "refusing to participate. What do you call re-imposing mask policies that have been proven ineffective or restarting lockdowns that are known to cause harm? You don't call it sanity," Dr. Ladapo posted last week on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. "These terrible policies only work with your cooperation. How about refusing to participate…"

. . . Last Friday, the ever-vacationing Biden announced he was requesting more money in order to develop yet another "vaccine" in his continuing and quixotic attempt to Kellogg-Briand a bug that laughs at face diapers.

People should be able to start rolling up their sleeves next month for what officials hope is an annual fall COVID-19 shot. Pfizer, Moderna and smaller manufacturer Novavax all are brewing doses of the XBB update but the Food and Drug Administration will have to sign off on each, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention must then issue recommendations for their use.

Said the doddering octogenarian: “I signed off this morning on a proposal we have to present to the Congress a request for additional funding for a new vaccine that is necessary, that works.

Now he tells us.

Apologies to friend and friend of the blog Michael Walsh for glomming onto the Alien meme but I couldn't resist. In any case someone mentioned that old Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants himself or one or more of his handlers in the Junta stated that vaccination for all 330 million of us is going to be, get this, "mandatory." My initial reaction, as both an American and a native-born Brooklynite is "Yeah? You and what army is going to make me get one?" And then I realized that this is no longer America, and the Army as it stands, along with perhaps the majority of police forces, and worst of all a solid percentage of my erstwhile fellow citizens is hell bent on grabbing my arm and shoving a needle into it.

Just like John Kerry is hell bent on silencing, by force if need be, anyone who dares question the myth of man-made climate change and the Malthusian maniacs who want to not only take humanity back to the supposedly idyllic era before the Industrial Revolution (where life expectancy due to disease and malnutrition was 35) but the even more idyllic Cretaceous Period where no humans existed at all.

Speaking of grabbing my arm and shoving a needle into, I wonder if these fools remember a place called Jonestown in the South American country of Guyana? I mean, they should, because "Reverend" Jim Jones and his People's Temple got their start in the San Francisco Bay Area with the help of the city's and state's Democrat Party. A number of whom are still shambling along in Sacramento and D.C. (hello, Jackie Speier for one), but I digress.

As Daniel Greenfield posits, in an essay that truly is worth bookmarking, these people create nothing. All they do is destroy. And woe betide anyone who stands in their way.

The moral motive force of a deconstructionist society in which nothing is sacred is to be defined by what we are against. Negative outrage, rather than any drive for the good, came to be the highest value. After the fall of Communism, the leftist ideology that transformed the country lacks any credible vision of a better world. The feeble gesturing toward Europe’s health care or China’s rapid trains quickly give way to a movement that is defined by its hatred of what is. . .

. . . Wokeness is an admission inherent in the long failed drives toward ‘True Communism’ in Russia, China and other totalitarian red states that utopia will never arrive. All leftists can do is sign up for an Orwellian perpetual cycle of purges against the enemies of their ideals.

That sort of ‘Oppositionism’ was the inevitable consequence of trying to actively realize an impossible ideal and then, out of the throes of its failure, defining the movement around a perpetual hostility to conservatives and traditionalists with no light at the end of the tunnel.

Oppositionism is what remains in a society where nothing is sacred and all that’s left is hatred of the other. If nothing is truly sacred and there is nothing higher to aspire to, then what defines us is what divides us, and we no longer need to know who we are, only what it is we hate.

The madness of oppositionism leads Democrat moms to take their toddlers to drag shows and buy them copies of Ibram X. Kendi’s ‘Anti-Racist Baby’ board book because these are the things that the people they hate now hate and so it’s incumbent on ‘progressives’ to embrace them.

At the rate we are going, if conservatives came out against child sacrifice, there would be a line all through wealthy woke suburbs to deliver their children to Moloch. In a society where things like human life and the innocence of children are sacred, such things would be inconceivable, but in a ‘nothing sacred’ society, what appears sacred must give way to what we hate.

Nothing sacred, certainly not religion, but not even that which even the most primitive barbaric tribes value, like the protection of women and children, can stand up to the power of hate.

And the need to destroy what we are to differentiate ourselves from that which we hate. . .

. . . The idea that some positive unifying vision would emerge in the twilight of religion was always a delusional fantasy. Religion was replaced by cults of personality, like that of Hitler and Stalin, and more contemporary examples, by a cannibalistic consumerism, and by a politics that pervaded everything.

Leftists promised that their politics could realize what religion only promised in exchange for total commitment and submission. Their failures cost a hundred million lives as a down payment. With the theoretical underpinnings in ruins, the politics is still everywhere, its promise is the destruction of everything else. Only when everything is gone, something better might emerge in some undefined fashion. But no one holds out any real expectation that it will.

This is oppositionism at its starkest, with no hope and no future, only the ruins of victory. . .

. . . Religion, true ideals, redeem us from this barbaric despair. Oppositionism, when its grandiose promises have failed, plunges societies back into that despair, and offers nothing more than the opportunity to burn it all down in a final funeral pyre in the ultimate act of social suicide.

This is the final end, individual and communal, of a society in which nothing is sacred.

America is turning into Jonestown, right before our very eyes. Whatever the flavor of Kool-Aid they will first ask us to drink – masks, vaccines, no incandescent light bulbs, stoves or gasoline, 57 genders, "love is love," etc. ad nauseam – and then compel us to drink, we dare not resist.

The difference is what happened in Jonestown was the result of the world discovering the insanity of what a "paradise on earth" really was. In our case, our would-be overlords in DC, Davos, Brussels and Beijing want us to drink the Kool-Aid first to supposedly create the paradise on earth.

The result, of course is exactly the same.

Canadian Sheila Annette Lewis died last week because her unvaccinated status denied her a vital organ transplant.  Supporters were raising money on her behalf so that she could go to the United States for the operation.

They didn’t raise enough money.

But the COVID-19 mandate authoritarians are okay with that.

NDP (New Democrat Party) Member of Parliament Charlie Angus says she deserved death, posting on X in a now deleted Tweet, “A woman died because she prefered [sic] to fight for disinformation, anti-vaxx bullshit and conspiracy. Pierre Poilievre says she is a hero and supports a candidate so bogus that Doug Ford kicked him out.”

The reference to the “bogus” candidate is Roman Baber, who fought COVID-19 mandates and will be running as a Conservative in the next federal election.

Shortly after her death on Friday, the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms posted, “Brave Canadian, Sheila Annette Lewis, has sadly passed away today. Our thoughts are with her family, and all other Canadians who have been denied transplants because of unscientific vaccine policies. We will continue her courageous fight for rights and freedoms.”

Tragically, Lewis was from Alberta, where the premier, Danielle Smith, once said the unvaccinated were “the most discriminated-against group” in her lifetime. Yet she did nothing to save this woman.

There is no rational reason for denying the unvaccinated an organ transplant; it's just more bureaucratic inertia from the public health Gestapo. There is growing evidence that the vaccinated are in greater danger of sudden death than those who resisted the monumental pressure to roll the dice and get the vax.

The official reason for rejecting the unvaccinated for new organs is that transplant patients are in greater danger of being infected by COVID. So they may get sick after the procedure – though probably not – but they’ll surely die without it!

Sudbury, ON, resident Garnet Harper died in April from kidney disease because he couldn’t get a transplant. He was unvaccinated as well. 

. . . We are still seeing the fallout from the previous mandates as people are literally dying because they were unvaccinated – but they are not perishing from the coronavirus but from bureaucratic idiocy.

Or the judicial idiocy that has followed Pastor Pawlowski, previously mentioned. 

Pawlowski told me in an interview how the Alberta justice system kept him in prison for 51 days, stripped naked and in solitary confinement at times. He was placed in metal cages, couldn’t talk to his lawyers, and was ultimately shipped to a maximum security facility in Edmonton where the murderers and terrorists usually go. 

That’s about how the Trudeau government and the judicial system in both Canada and the U.S. have treated the unvaxxed: like terrorist trash who can be consigned to the dustbin of history and left to die on a hospital bed while doctors and nurses are forbidden from offering the life-saving intervention that is readily available. 

Get ready for your morale to be improved, comrade. Con gusto.

31 There is something very cart-and-horse about the greenshirts' infatuation that there are "too many people". The population follows technology. More technology means more people can survive, and the population spontaneously goes up in equilibrium. If you put our current population on the Earth all at once five hundred years ago, most would starve to death.

They don't mean that there's too many people. They mean that there's too much technology that isn't theirs and theirs alone to use. They're just shittier Luddites in more expensive suits.

38 Since 'climate denial' is the top topic of your essay, jjs, I just found this at Just The News --

Over 1600 scientists, including 2 Nobel laureates, signed a letter saying that, essentially, the cure is worse than the problem.

And that the whole climate debate has become purely political. If you have this link in your roundup, I apologize. I haven't had the time yet to scan the links or all your essay.

48 The indictment states on page 24 that Trump and Meadows met with John McEntee in December 2020 and requested he “prepare a memorandum outlining a strategy for disrupting and delaying the joint session of Congress on January 6, 2021, the day prescribed by law for counting votes cast by the duly elected and qualified presidential electors from Georgia and the other states.”

“Me asking Johnny McEntee for this kind of a memo didn’t happen,” Meadows said, noting he had “zero recollection” of the event.

But he confirmed Pence is a whimp.

53 Everything now is of a piece of destruction and dissolution. I note especially the small stories which speak to the larger one story. The Feds are now going after the Amish. The Amish, of course, are self-sustaining and "off the grid." That cannot be permitted. Just like the Feds will go after home schooling soon. Everything is of a piece, and nothing that struggles to remain free of the totalitarian borg will be permitted to exist.

They compound the already difficult challenge of the climate crisis, by promising to do more of exactly what created this crisis in the first place. So now, humanity is inexorably threatened by humanity itself, by those seducing people into buying into a completely fictitious, alternative reality, where we don’t need to act and we don’t even need to care.

I am surprised Kerry and his Fellow Travelers are concerned about it. As humans boil-away, human-caused CO2 release decreases. Eventually the population will reduce to the 300 million the Globalists desire. Climate change will stop then reverse, returning the climate to what it was pre-Industrial Age. The Globalists will live happily ever after. Served by their 299 million serfs.

But then the Globalists would not be able to get what they lust for: Executing 8 Billion human beings.

It's a shame that people who are supposed to be doctors really don't seem to have a clue how the immune system works. Also, don't people who go through a transplant procedure take drugs that reduce their immune system to avoid rejection of the transplanted organ?

67 The denial of transplants to the unvaccinated ain't just in Canada.

A prominent provider of organ transplants in the South has a policy that ALL recipients of organs 'have been vaccinated' for Covid.

I have a genuine question about this for anyone who might know how this works.

Taking all of this at face value, is it still even "COVID-19?" How mutations can there be of SARS-CoV-2 before it stops being SARS-CoV-2? How mutated can it get before it's something else? How many changes can there be before the illness caused by the virus isn't "COVID-19" anymore? Is it already there, which is why it's now just "Covid?" COVID-19 was an acronym. "Covid" is just a proper noun. Has it already happened?

They love them some Nikki Haley over there. Good grief, the only Republican in the race more ridiculous and out of touch with actual voters than Haley is Mike Pence. But the WSJ is desperate to label her serious….

95 Heard a discussion about the Michigan election fraud (GBI strategies, operating in multiple states) this morning. An interesting point was made.

A FOIA request had to be made to get the police report here:

https://tinyurl.com/2y8epmum

that details the information on the clerk calling the police when she noticed fraud and the police, and the police coordinated with state police and the AG.

Police reports hidden under layers and layers of FOIAs. You sort of have to know they exist to request them.

Other police reports are public record, and displayed openly every day for anyone to dig through and for reporters to report on.

That's part of how the entire thing was kept covered up. And, like this one, the FBI investigates voter fraud, and the investigation ends immediately. Poof. Gone. Never happened.

It's a point I've made repeatedly. Space travel, energy, China, Israel, etc. - it's completely schizophrenic. The US government pursues opposed goals in several major areas and possibly in every area (there's just too much to keep up with to find out).

This is because nobody is in charge. Biden is puppet and the bureaucracy is running itself. Everything is rule by committee, and the committee heads are all in competition. All of the members of the politburo are building their own empires, running their own information/intelligence networks, exploiting their own systems of pressure and bribery, etc. The members of the politburo are probably often allied with each other (some of them) into meta-networks, but there are still at least several of those.

There is no real central authority and so our policy is inconsistent and even contradictory.

124 1) the 1st Rule of Propaganda is, "we can't tell you what to think but we can control what you think about."

2) FTX and SBF had nothing to do with taking down a fraud (he was a fraud to be sure) and everything to do with a) shutting down non-established banking alternatives to the global and central banks and b) driving down crypto for when the global and central banks issue their own digital currency and their Bitcoin spot EFT.
It's about forcing the public to stay in their cage where they extract $9 trillion a year in rents for their "trust."

3) I'm just now hearing JP Morgan Chase paid a billion dollar fine in 2020 because they got caught spoofing the gold market. Just last week, the guy doing it got 2 years. His trial, he testified that's what he was taught to and expected to do-- it's company policy.
They and Blackrock and all the rest do this in every market every day all year long.

This has been a risk for some time. Each time the press (and sometimes the state) ran the "PANIC! BIGGEST NEW DISEASE EVER!!!!!" playbook, it got less relevant. Bird flu. Swine flu. Bird flu again. It happened probably four or five times in ten years.

Then COVID, where they went whole hog and blew up the world. COVID was likely the last one where it worked. We'll find out as they try COVID Redux, but I think too many people will not participate in the panic. Sure, the blue hives will go full retard and various people will go along with it, but I do *not* think we're going to see the same level that we saw last time. And if there is ever a *real* new plague, then yeah - it won't work then, either. Not unless corpses are piling up like cordwood in a way that cannot be ignored by the man on the street seeing it with his own eyes.

There is always some of that, and there will be in any large bureaucratic system. But with strong central authority, it can be minimized for the big stuff. The USSR had lots of vague and contradictory policy (whaling comes immediately to mind), but they were rigidly consistent on the big stuff.

We can't even get the big stuff done consistently because we have the worst of both worlds: the managerial and motivational problems of leftism *and* warring factions running everything from behind the curtain.

The injection changes the body's natural protective measures from the devices that protect against respiratory viruses being the dominant structures called on for defense to the structures that help stop the sniffles from allergies and pollen and the like being the dominant defensive mechanism.

Meaning there is no meaningful defensive mechanism against respiratory viruses.

It's clever when you see it. They might not even need to release another worse variant because vaccinated people will already struggle so hard to overcome minor flu and cold bugs that were a mild inconvenience previously. Even MSM is finally discussing it. Science dot org

I doubt it. Assume that they were all playing the same games (I think it's a good assumption). Why go after Trump and possibly force the issue? There was another safe option: stand down. Just quietly adjust and let it blow over. It would have.

Yep. Impeached over a phone call, but mainly what the phone call was about. The corrupt were terrified of the clean.

And yes, Romney was involved in the Ukraine money laundering as well. Thick as thieves, because that's what they are:

"Utah Republican senator Mitt Romney’s foreign policy adviser Joseph Cofer Black served on the board of Burisma Holdings alongside Hunter Biden....

Cofer Black, who served as a special adviser on the Romney 2012 presidential campaign, was listed on the Burisma board at the same time as Hunter Biden, according to the Federalist."

I have some neighbors down the bottom of my hill that live along a picturesque creek with ducks in the backyard and trout in the stream. After the remnants of HC Ida rolled through my wife and I took a walk past their home. All of their furniture was in the backyard and they were outside. We gave our condolences but they were cheerful and of the opinion that living there was worth the risk and it was a good 25 years since the last time they were flooded.

I think this is an interesting aspect of the Biden fall-from-grace, in that Uniparty politicos take corruption in stride, as the normal state, and seem to think directing payments to children and grandchildren is just normal, tax-efficient, intergenerational wealth distribution. Biden almost seems bemused sometimes, like "what is the big deal?".

And Romney, Kerry, Pelosi et al aree there with him.

If you assume there was not a massive, ahistorical turn out in 2020, Biden got around 20M fake votes.

I suspect they'll try around 40M in 2024 unless somehow the GOPe gets a Christie or some such as the R nominee.

The vaccine was never really a vaccine. As I understand it, it is a therapeutic designed to suppress the immune response so you did not feel as sick or suffer the symptoms of being sick. However, you can still catch and shed the virus- because it is not a vaccine that produces disease specific anti-bodies that would attack any new infection and keep you from getting sick or being able to shed the virus yourself.

The Junta does not want to explain it with numbers. Because the numbers are bad.

Bidenomics is Macro-Economics. Millions of jobs 'created,' 500,000 EV recharge stations, new computer chip factories a thousand miles away from where they live, and so on.

People care about their individual Micro- Economics. They don't care about a new computer chip plant in Phoenix that will 'create' 10,000 good paying union jobs, or 500,000 EV recharge stations years in the future, and so on, not when they are barely making it to the next payday.

It's no wonder the majority of the population believes Joe is doing a sh1tty job on the economy.

Shortly after their wedding, Mrs Coolidge was inveigled by a book salesman into paying $8.00 for 'Our Family Physician,' one of those sources of medical information that used to be in every household.

But after the book was delivered, Mrs Coolidge was a trifle nervous about the effect the book might have on Mr Coolidge. She decided to say nothing, but leave it on the center-table. Mr Coolidge apparently hadn't noticed it. But one day she glanced inside, and there on the fly-leaf Calvin had written:

"Don't see any recipe for curing suckers. Calvin Coolidge."

Reaganomics was, "if you build a company that generates value we'll stop stealing as much from you so hey its in your interest to do so now"

Bidenomics is, "if you give 10% to the big guy we'll get rid of the your business competitors or give you a big check from the treasury"

Remember that covid is airborne![i[ It probably is time for masks until this surge is over IMHO.

We had an all-staff training day Wednesday. I never stopped masking, but most people weren't. Quite a few of our youngest staff members wore masks, which I thought was impressive.

I checked out Worldometers and TX and Kentucky are NOT even listed! If you go to their individual states they show no new cases! But if you look at the graphs for each state you can see there are many new cases. There is a cover-up by the red states, again, still.

Please do not ever cancel in person classes for k12 ever again! Especially without emergency declaration.

? Don't worry, there was one last time, and I think it's still in effect! Friday, March 13, 2020 the President of the United States declared a National Emergency concerning the Novel Coronavirus Disease Outbreak.

There's a nice pleasant restaurant near me along a scenic canal. They have an elevated deck next to the water. The last time we were there they had a sign to 'Bring your dog'. Someone did. Won't be back. I don't care to eat with dogs 10 feet away slobbering all over the decking as a response to the smell of food. Rather look at some dudes hairy toes in flip-flops.

The point of keeping Trump off the ballot (it would apply to anyone else) is to keep down his national vote total. Trump got more than six million votes in Californian, for example.

They want it to appear less people have been disenfranchised so they can run around the world proclaiming Our Democracy. It won't work and eyes will roll, of course, but we aren't dealing with sane people.

Dogs Kids.

Why in the world would you bring your non-service animal dog into a grocery store where food is sold, prepared, and often consumed on-site?

And management is too cowed to say "Hey, get your sh*t eating, vomit-rolling, dander-flying dog kid out of this store."

I have mentioned it before, but women do not so much have fetishes for feet as phobias for body parts: Feet. Eyes (girl I knew in high school- don't ask.)

The only dude body part women seem to like is either well muscled arms or hands. You know, aside from the normal body parts a woman should be interested in.

Little Caesars is actually fresh pack sauce. Meaning instead of the tomatoes being turned in to paste like with most sauce, it is turned into a higher water content sauce then made into pizza sauce right as the tomatoes are being harvested. It gives the sauce a 'greener' taste than your standard pizza sauce, made from paste.

407 >>I would suggest we said the same thing.

Heh, true.
Was just talking to someone yesterday about a local street fair and how rude everyone was - giving no space/accommodation when passing by, that sort of thing. Gone are the general, automatic niceties.

We notice the big things that have changed in recent years - the crime, the looting, the weird, public verbal confrontations and meltdowns - but there are so many little losses in the way people treat each other, too.

Bullshit. The playbook is there. It has always been there, and will always be there. You just don't like what it says.

In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selective Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: 'If you don't work you die.'

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

School's back. Time to begin the kiddie indoctrinations anew.

Climate can be a 'casualty of the war' in Ukraine & Russia; intense mining in Africa, the Philippines, Australia, etc. Example: DW dot com, 06/07/2023, In part, "In the year following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the war's carbon footprint is similar to the entire emissions of Belgium, conflict emission experts say."

Apparently, that's ok. Even desirable They're taking resources i.e., drastically limiting "carbon footprint" plus $ grabbing from specific regions or nations to 'fuel' their own interests & investments elsewhere, imo. And so, the real 'building back better' comes years from now, again, to keep their interests and investments in good standing.

It's like Obamacare & Education combined. Big profits for many; a driver of bureaucracy, and so many rules for the peasants.

They're not brilliant people as a whole. Next for us could be The Lottery.

Peace.

428 Nikki Haley Hits Back at Vivek Ramaswamy for Using Her Indian Name in Attack: He ‘Should Know Better’

Is she saying using her Indian first name is racist because why? And Vivek (an Indian) is racist against Indians for using it? I don't get it.

If someone called me by my middle name, I wouldn't like it, but I wouldn't make a big deal about it like Niki. Yesterday I got the upteenth UNSOLICITED text on my phone from some Nikki fundraising thing. Got angry, texted back "Fuck Off" before blocking that number too. Fuck all these politicians, especially the ones that keep texting me. That goes for your supporters too, Trump and DeSantis. It should be illegal.
