The Morning Report

The Morning Report — 9/14/23

Good morning, kids. Let it not be said that I never highlight any good news.

Trump celebrated news of Romney’s decision not to run for reelection, posting on Truth Social:

FANTASTIC NEWS FOR AMERICA,THE GREAT STATE OF UTAH, & FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. MITT ROMNEY, SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS PIERRE DELECTO, WILL NOT BE SEEKING A SECOND TERM IN THE U.S. SENATE, WHERE HE DID NOT SERVE WITH DISTINCTION. A BIG PRIMARY FIGHT AGAINST HIM WAS IN THE OFFING, BUT NOW THAT WILL NOT BE NECESSARY. CONGRATS TO ALL. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
. . . Romney was interrupted five minutes into his interview with Politico by a call from [so-called quote-unquote "president"] Joe Biden.
“There are certain calls you do have to take,” Romney said after “speaking with the president for what sounded like a friendly and upbeat conversation,” according to the outlet.

"Friendly and upbeat?" We'll see how long that lasts considering it's not just the name Biden that has been positively linked to the greatest corruption scandal in American history. One of Romney's sons IIRC is also tied at the hip, along with a Kerry and perhaps a Pelosi, to Burisma or the Hunter Biden-directed "investment" firm associated with international influence peddling. It would be just as sweet to see any or all of them take some sort of hit, politically and financially if not criminally. Especially a globalist fake conservative like Romney.

Naturally, given the top to bottom corruption of in and out of government, the odds of any of that happening are slim to none. Yet, the rapidly degenerating brain function of degenerate-in-chief Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants is threatening to expose more and more of, not only his and his party's criminality, but the disaster wrought by their policies and raging incompetence, as our economy, international stature, security and society collapse as a result.

For them to lose a spot at the trough would be bad enough. But collectively, for them to lose political power to a slowly rising tide of populist anger would be unthinkable. There's quite a good piece at The American Conservative (it's behind a paywall) on our disastrous meddling in the Russia-Ukraine conflict vis a vis the aforementioned deleterious effects on the nation, but given our current political divide and unrest, this paragraph jumped out at me for obvious reasons:

Confronted with a weak economy, higher yields and lower prices for Treasury bonds, the Biden [junta] and its partner on Capitol Hill, the Washington “uniparty,” really have two choices: First, cut U.S. and Allied losses in Ukraine, reduce discretionary spending, and focus on domestic emergencies at the Southern Border and in America’s largest cities. Or second, the [junta] and the uniparty can escalate the conflict with Moscow.

Well, they're not "confronted" with those problems since they are the ones that caused them in the first place. At this point, the phrase "wag the dog" comes to mind. But this time, we're not dealing with a third world pushover thug-ocracy. We're dealing with a former super power now a regional power with a nuclear arsenal ranging from suitcase-sized to multiple thermonuclear warhead-equipped ICBMs that can muss even the perfectly Brylcreem-coiffed pate of Gavin Newsom.

I just realized, Saddam Hussein the second time around was not exactly a cakewalk and let's not even talk about Afghanistan. Of course, that too was no fault of the US combat soldier but of a foreign policy and national leadership that goes to war for war's sake and not to quickly and decisively crush our enemies and impose our will on them. That, of course, is racist, imperialist and these days "Islamophobic." But I digress.

We are at an inflection point in history and the New World Order, not of Hitler but of Bush 41, is on the cusp of erasing nearly a thousand years of human development and advancement since Magna Carta and imposing the same old tyranny on the world, that will kill millions in the name of saving humanity. All bets are well and truly off, my friends as was demonstrated in New Mexico just the other day:

. . . although this scenario looks rather like déjà vu all over again, it actually is a bit intriguing.
Why intriguing? Because surely the governor had her finger to the wind and knew exactly what the response was going to be, but she went forward anyway.
Why? Because it’s a probe, providing the strategists who serve our reptilian overlords with some data points. As with the case of COVID, the lizards who orchestrated the pandemic knew it would eventually be discovered that the US federal government funded the creation of it in the Wuhan lab, and we’d eventually learn that the masks, the social distancing, and the lockdowns were all pointless and that the “vaccines” were both ineffective and dangerous.
So why pursue that entire elaborate rococo deception? Because the deep-state lizards wanted to study the public response. And why that? Because our deep-state reptilian overlords are in the process of formulating a plan to fit us all with a totalitarian straightjacket.
Bear in mind that, in 1944. the United States Supreme Court in Korematsu v. United States approved the 1942 Japanese internment, because of “military necessity.” Perhaps that made sense under the circumstances if one believes the hysteria portrayed in the 1979 John Belushi movie 1941, but note that Korematsu fires the lizard quest for an “emergency” sufficient to sweep aside the US Constitution and all its citizen protections in one fell swoop.
It is surely alarming enough that the 17 federal intelligence agencies have developed the technology to surveil us through our underwear, but just why is it that 70 federal agencies are armed with significant firepower?
Let us ponder: What could piggyback on Korematsu? How about martial law?! Martial law has indeed already been imposed some 68 times in US history.

The only thing more vile and repulsive than Lujan-Grisham's l'état, c'est moi declaration that her oath to the Constitution is worth less than Joey's used Depends is the fact that a growing number of citizens have an equal disregard for that sacred document, mostly due to mal- or non-education on its meaning in the first place. As Lenin himself said, "Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted." Well, he and his ilk have had nearly 60, if not longer. And here we are.

Meanwhile, with every amendment under assault – except for the 14th being used to persecute Donald Trump, itself wholly bastardized to being with – it's the First that is really under the gun (no pun):

What a desperately presumptuous act it is for the White House Counsel’s Office to blast out a memo ordering media organizations to apply the blowtorch to Republicans and defend Joe Biden in the impending House impeachment inquiry.
The marching orders went out Wednesday morning under a blaring headline: “MEMO TO EDITORIAL LEADERSHIP AT U.S. NEWS MEDIA ORGANIZATIONS.”
Ian Sams, the grandly titled special assistant to the president and senior adviser and spokesman for White House Counsel’s Office, declared: “It’s Time For The Media To Do More To Scrutinize House Republicans’ Demonstrably False Claims That They’re Basing Impeachment Stunt On.”
Talk about ungrateful.
The White House is making overt what has been covert, and humiliating their media handmaidens in the process.
That section of the media that ought to have been scrutinizing the [so-called quote-unquote "president"] rather than covering him must be scratching their heads, and red-faced with embarrassment.
They don’t need a public rallying cry.
They already know what to do.
They have been carrying water for Joe Biden since he first shuffled out of the basement.
The White House memo insists there’s “simply no evidence that Joe Biden did anything wrong” and offers as evidence that there’s no evidence quotes from a herd of deaf, dumb and blind RINOs, like Ken Buck, (R-Colo.): “The evidence doesn’t exist right now;” and Don Bacon (R-Neb.): “We need to have more concrete evidence.”
The memo was accompanied by a 16-page so-called “dossier” in which the FBI, Washington Post, New York Times, NBC, CNN and Associated Press are quoted liberally back to themselves exonerating Joe Biden in the counterfactual post-truth parsing of language that passes for journalism these days at those formerly august outfits.
As House committees and whistleblowers have piled evidence upon evidence of wrongdoing, corruption and coverup that links back to Joe Biden, these bastions of American journalism have behaved like a combination of Mr. Magoo, Baghdad Bob, Sgt. Schultz and Monty Python’s Black Knight — and maybe with a dose of the Three Wise Monkeys thrown in: “See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.”
The White House wants them to stay that way, so that half the electorate remains in the dark.
Forget the bank records, shell companies, SEC complaints, sworn testimony, IRS whistleblower statements, FBI informant files, emails, texts, WhatsApp messages, photos, speakerphone calls, voicemails, White House visitor logs, Air Force 2 travel logs, Joe’s pseudonym email addresses and a parade of Hunter’s shady foreign benefactors lining up for handshakes with Joe in Beijing, breakfasts at the VP’s residence and dinners at Café Milano, not to mention millions of dollars in filthy foreign lucre for no discernible product or service other than access to Joe.

Emphasis mine in Miranda Devine's essay. I would say what can you expect from a government that would attempt to (and for all we know secretly be operating) institute a Disinformation Governance Board, or whatever the hell it was called? Who needs one when you have a media that instinctively lies about what's going on and silences and/or smears all voices the question the narrative or dare to raise doubts or contrary opinions?

That's the real danger here. Bad enough we have a government trying to enslave us. We also have a so-called private sector that will do the dirty work for them when even the barest of protections and safeguards still extant stand in its way. Worse still, alluding to my earlier depression over a whole new generation(s) of citizens who have no knowledge of, or even hatred, of the Constitution, citizen Stasi ready to rat you out for wrong-think:

Authorities in Los Angeles County are operating an ideologically charged tip line that encourages citizens to report one another to the government for non-criminal “hate incidents.” The project, called “LA vs Hate,” was founded in 2020 and is backed by a handful of corporate sponsors.
LA vs Hate describes itself as a “community-centered creative campaign to encourage and support all residents of Los Angeles County to unite against, report, and resist hate.” The program relies on anonymous reporting online or through a tip line, 211 LA, and is not affiliated with law enforcement.
The organization operates under the authority of the County of Los Angeles Commission on Human Relations and enjoys backing from Kaiser Permanente, Blue Shield of California, and other nonprofits and corporate organizations. It also receives financial support from the American Rescue Plan and local governmental departments. . .
. . . LA vs Hate encourages people to report “hate crimes” and “hate violence,” both of which are defined to include illegal offenses on the group’s website. Critically, however, Angelenos are also told to report “hate incidents,” defined on the site as “an action or behavior motivated by hate but which, for one or more reasons, is not a crime.” Listed examples of “hate incidents” include name-calling, insults, displaying so-called hate material on your own property, posting alleged hate material that does not result in property damage, and distributing materials with hate messages in public spaces.
LA vs Hate did not provide a public definition of “hate” or respond to The Federalist with a definition when asked. Taxpayers, Christians, and Angelenos outside the far left should be troubled by this ambiguity, given recent efforts to use overly broad definitions of hate to smear and punish political opponents. . .
. . . The tip line is not affiliated with law enforcement, so it poses the question: Why bother reporting so-called “hate”? The LA vs Hate website claims reporting is used so “communities can respond with appropriate resources and support” in response to actions “motivated by hostile prejudice.” The ambiguity is intentional but transparent. These tip lines are unenforceable snitch lines that police opinions and dissent with the most effective method: shame. . .
. . . George Orwell describes this state of inescapable orthodoxy best: “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — for ever.”

Yup. Prepare to get your hair mussed. And your face stomped.

13 The NM governor was acting under orders from the white house. This was a trial balloon for a state level second amendment end run. The DNC coordinate the activities with every elected dem, just like they coordinate the activities of the captured press, as seen in the letter sent yesterday demanding press investigations of house republicans on the impeachment committee.

14 How dumb is the White House? The media is totally in their pockets, and happily accepts instructions. But why put it in writing, and then leak it? Now we all know based on documentary evidence what we knew anyway from supposition, and that is that any negative articles from now on criticizing the impeachment are White House-driven partisan BS.

26 Good riddance to Pierre Delecto. DJT had and has an amazing talent for exposing the fakes… or driving them so nutty they expose themselves. Remember Jeff Flake, who at first glance was a “staunch conservative”…. Now Mittens, the “severe conservative” (isn’t that how he described himself?)…. Paul Ryan et al, the list goes on and on.

The conservative/liberal dichotomy is obsolete. Terms more appropriate to contemporary times might be constitutionalist vs statist (that is, do you believe in a constitution which limits the states power or do you believe in a state which grants rights at its discretion)

58 In further news concerning the largest mass shooting in Maryland history, a fourth (or fifth) suspect has been arrested yesterday.

15 year old juvenile.

Arrested two weeks earlier on a separate handgun violation as well.

Meanwhile, the mother of one of the victims unloads at a hearing with a tirade against the police.

She chose tallow her daughter to attend a party in a neighborhood miles away from where she lived.

A party with an apparent history of guns, violence and drug dealers providing the bounce houses and stuff.

A party that was actively hidden on social media from the Police to reduce the likelihood of police presence.

A party where by some estimates, as many as 900 folks were illegally armed that night.

A community that has yet to offer any tips nor evidence to officials in order to solve this mass shooting.

She never once expressed outrage against the actual shooters..only the Police.

Perhaps she chose poorly in allowing her daughter to attend this event.

But hey.....

++++
Possibly. I take a somewhat different view of things. We are in the transition period associated with the fall not of Bush 43's post-9/11 realignment or of Bush 41's post-Soviet "end of history" globalist structure, but of the progenitor of both: the Postwar Order. The fall of the USSR should have put an end to the Postwar Order, since it was one of the nuclei around which that Order orbited. Its failure did not result in the failure of the structure, because we both made a successful power play and had laid the groundwork to accommodate it (though unknowingly) in the 70s when we went off gold and reorganized the global economy into the petrodollar and trade flow system.

But the tank is empty. It's not the end of Bush 41's "NWO," it's the end of world as designed at Bretton Woods and Yalta. Will it be global (albeit fractured) tyranny? Entirely possible.

What exactly constitutes being "exposed" in a way that matters, or correlates to proportionate public effect? It already has been exposed in one sense. We may be thinking in some fantastic sense wherein the media, which controls narratives, suddenly accepts and "exposes" the scandal.

After much thought, this memo is the first thing that leads me to believe that the ruling factions may be worried about the immediate future. To this author's - and many people's, including my - point, the press does this anyway. They are all naked propagandists and carry water without explicit instruction. So what gives with this memo?

There are a couple of potential explanations, but one of them is that the factional maneuvering within the Party and State is cascading down to the propaganda complex in some uncontrolled or loosely-controlled way. The shot-callers within the dominant factions of the Inner Party aren't confident that their instructions will actually be relayed to all participants. So making a public demand makes it clear to the propaganda part of the Complex that whatever skulduggery and jockeying for position might be going on, they best remember who is actually in charge and do their damn jobs. If they don't, the dominant faction's loyalists will eviscerate the wobblers or provocateurs.

Just one possibility.

I'd been tracking Romney since his days in Massachusetts, his undistinguished one-term as governor and his failed run against Ted Kennedy. He was always trying to come off as another Reagan, a sunny, forthright and courageous leader, but always in the clutch would revert to the sawdust-filled equivocator and coward who choked in the clutch. So I knew he would lose before he got started. But the cue for me was when he came out and condemned Hillary Clinton's attack on the First Amendment after Benghazi, then totally reversed himself within hours when he caught wind of the media blowback. Gutless loser. He's also messed up with all kinds of Daddy issues. Still, his descent into viciousness has been a revelation.

It is. The end of the world doesn't necessarily mean mega death, fire and brimstone. It can mean those things, but it needn't. The world ends all the time. Hell, this country alone has ended and been reborn a few times in its brief history. By my count, what's waning today is not "America" but "America, Mark IV."

The end of the world is disruptive and, to some degree, destructive. It is not, however, constructed entirely of downsides. Unlike a person, who once dead is dead forever, the world is continually reborn and much of the old carries over into the new. As the world as we know it sputters out, the new world that emerges - by chance or by design or most likely both - brings with it new opportunities. This will not lessen the pain and sorrow involved with the end of the world, but that there is and ever shall be a future is no small thing.

You can see why I have trouble caring about either of them no matter how much I'm told by the people who developed and released the bioweapon that killed 3M-7M people that I should care about them.

Kim shelters in the shadow of whichever horse doesn't seek to trample his ass into the soil. There have only ever been two such horses: Russia and Red China. Recently, the horse least likely to trample him has been in Beijing. That started to change over the past decade. Xi has little apparent patience for Kim, and hasn't been particularly cooperative. China has bigger things to worry about and doesn't need Kim causing trouble.

If Putin is Kim's better bet than Xi - and he apparently is, or else Kim would be in Beijing right now - then it might be a somewhat meaningful realignment. For a man with only two choices, Kim has made the same choice for quite a while now - until this week, anyway...

159 This is the most complacent and apathetic society in history.... Posted by: E. A. Blair at September 14, 2023 08:27 AM (YLqwM)

We're coming off the most comfortable and stable society in history. The rubber band has a loooong long way to stretch yet before the kind of desperation that can drive revolution and revolt sets in. Even now, we're just barely nipping into the kind of territory that not long ago would be considered "normal and not too bad" for most of American history, let alone Human history. It just appears terrible to the people who are closely paying attention because they're paying attention. The average dope sees politicians being politicians, and stuff is a little bit expensive, and house prices are kinda screwy. That's nothing to grab the torches and pitchforks over.

So things have a lot more worse to go before the complacency snaps, but when it finally does inevitably snap, the living memory of comfort and safety will be a driving force the likes of which have never been seen.

161 This week: There is no evidence!

FFS, there's enough on Hunter's laptop alone. If this were a criminal proceeding the Bidens would argue that the laptop evidence is inadmissible because of chain of custody issues. But the House hearing isn't a criminal proceeding. Nancy's Kangaroo Kourt rules apply.

From the laptop, Comer & Co already have the bank records that will show that Joe and Doctor Jill took out more from commingled accounts than they put in. Millions more. And a tape that has Joe admitting to crimes.

But if Comer & Co went public with this too early, the Bidens, the Left and Media would claim it was fabricated. Instead Kevin will use the investigation to demand this evidence from the Bidens who won't turn it over. Which will prove in the court of public opinion that the laptop evidence is real.

There's more on the laptop and other evidence that exposes not just the Bidens, but others, including possible Obama. Can't have that ...

No, I didn't. The world is getting pretty sporty recently and losing manpower and intellectual capital for no reason is a stupid play. And it is happening.

I don't know if people who aren't me have noticed it or if it is mere coincidence, but I have noticed that declining work performance correlates strongly with vax/booster schedule adherence. People who were once rock stars are declining. Harder time keeping focus. Fewer effective hours worked. More outages due to illness. Lower performance. Less sharpness.

It could be coincidental, of course, but I have several instances of it that I see on a daily basis. One man's observations makes not a trend, but it worries the hell out of me. This is a monstrously destructive policy and even if it kills more enemies than allies, it is nothing to celebrate.

History says you are right. A large majority of humans have a loss avoidance preference instead of potential gains and they punish those that cause them to lose comforts and stability. A uniparty and ruling class united in plunder inspires no loyalty and a rising anger and contempt at the frivolities of DC courtiers and court life that is targeting creature comforts is something similar to the impetus for the French Revolution.

Possible. Putin would probably rather have Red China assist with manufacturing/supply, but Xi is fickle and may go his own way. If nothing else, have alternate supply online - even inferior supply from the DPRK - is probably strategically sound. Kim has only two masters and plays a fairly small game. Xi has many, many balances of power to maintain and is playing a very big game. Russia is much bigger to the DPRK than it is to the PRC.

203 Every American owes it to their country to sacrifice the blood of the innocent on the altar of The 10%.

Opponents of our senseless, perpetual wars are quislings who don't even think their kids should die to pay off my defense contractor donors, or for Hunter Biden's outré lifestyle, or Mitt Romney's cloth-of-gold ritual undergarments, or DC's bottomless sluice of foreign childmeat. Those are the Blessings of Liberty that define Our Sacred Democracy.

All of them should be shot. Right in front of me, of course, but not before they pay for my oil drums of execution-grade jackoff lotion as restitution for their crimes against eagles, apple pie, and football.

Somebody fetch me a catamite. In American flag body paint. I'm feeling super patriotic right now.

Sheila realizes she has maxed-out her position in the Democrat House Caucus. Unimportant Sub-Committee Chairman. The Dem Leader will never risk her running any committee, no matter how much seniority she piles up.

So she's moving on to greener pastures. Ruling Houston, then running for governor or Senator. I believe that is her plan. I pray it fails, bigly.

Right track/Wrong track is hitting new lows among the population while the media says you never had it so good. Real family income continues to drop due to inflation and insufficient wage gains and the media says that inflation is transitory. And so on. You noting that productivity is declining at your firm is probably what others are noticing. No one other than the hard core supports masking much anymore--covid literally is now the fear of the neurotic more than anyone else. People don't support shipping money to Ukraine and so on.

Concur.

Not everything he did during COVID was actually disastrous and some of it showed real leadership and ability to execute - but the whole involves a lot of nuance and it's arguable as to whether the good parts of his specific, attributable actions outweigh the bad (I don't think they do).

Politics is no place for nuance and the scale of the COVID response disaster is so tremendous that sifting through the rubble for the rare gem is a losing strategy. The entire damn thing needs to be repudiated. Yes, that will involve tossing a few babies out with oceans' worth of bathwater. It is what it is. A disaster of this magnitude cannot be salvaged.

Waitingning for "meaningful trial data" translates into "until everyone dies." Even then he'd fall back on the excuse, "they died from something else, like heart disease, and COVID didn't actually cause the fatality." Too bad so many are going to listen to him will die.

fuck that nonsense! stand by for DeFuckface landing an epidemic squarely within FL bounds! when is it gonna be time to Dunkirk out everyone who wants to leave Florida?

Bit more nuanced than the above quote, e.g., "While Trump refused to say he was “proud” of the program (Vaxx), he said that he “got something done for that specific thing.” He also emphasized that he never supported vaccine mandates. “Some places had… very strong mandates, largely Democratic governors,” he noted. ”I never gave mandates, and people have to make… their own decision as far as I’m concerned.” He also mentions being proud of the effort to get Regeneron (monoclonal antibodies) approved.

The funniest/best part is that it was all preventable. Musk is filling a market that the feds have been paying the big telecoms billions upon billions to get service to since the 90s. Instead of hanging fiber on phone lines with the money and then signing up who knows how many new customers at $100+ per month, the big telecoms just decided to keep the billions and spend a couple of bucks here and there maintaining 1996-era DSL.

294 The law under consideration is Section 1512(c)(2), which carries a maximum 20 year prison sentence for anyone who “obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding.” Though the statute was passed to fight evidence tampering, government prosecutors have reasoned that Lang and Miller, along with many other Jan. 6 defendants, obstructed an official proceeding by attempting to disrupt Congress from certifying the election results.

——-

If I recall, the “proceeding” that was “obstructed” was delayed by Congress before any citizens actually entered the People’s House.

As to the “proceeding” itself. The lying bastard politicians all say the “certification” was merely a formality rubber stamp. So exactly what was prevented so according to their own words all they were doing was essentially a clown show.

People should always use what the political press says as the basis to check into important news by going directly to the source. The Conservative Media TM is as corrupt as most of the mainstream media because if it is free then the question of who is paying for it becomes apparent.

I use JJ's aggregation as a flag for issues important to me and then research them appropriately. Others, I simply take as something to watch out for.

Any good trial lawyer will tell you that there are two sides to every story and the only way to figure out what might be true is to do wholesale review of the evidence and the original source is usually the best one (doctrine of 'best evidence'). Indirect evidence should only be used in the absence of direct evidence.

He truly failed there and the consequences of that are still resonating throughout the nation.

But...you can vote for a Senator or House member that way. Why? Because the blue states are going to elect a leftwing lunatic. So if you do want some middle of the road type policy and you live in a red state to balance out that leftwing lunatic you need to vote for a "right wing extremist".

The federal inspectors reportedly absolved the Biden administration from responsibility for the overwhelming influx of migrants, saying instead that the real culprit in the mess was the city and state.

But, according to an NBC report citing an unnamed source, the report went even further, slamming the city for having “no exit strategy” to ensure migrants get out of the shelter system.

"The program relies on anonymous reporting online or through a tip line, 211 LA, and is not affiliated with law enforcement."

It immediately struck me, that sounds like some of the U.S. DOL "reporting" programs. All complaints - valid or not - drove compilation of data & development of programs. In fact on some occasion, invalid & untrustworthy complaints could lead to interesting 'interventions' in the form of lengthy inspection, substantial fines, and sh*tty press for the target/interventionee.

Glanced quickly at the 2020 Hate Crime Report & saw the Chair of the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors & 1st District representative was & continues to be Ms. Hilda Solis, who was no Reich or Perez but still, a former U.S. Secretary of Labor, 1st O & Joe Administration. So the feds have rolled another program out & into communities & somewhere, somehow the data compiled - believable or not - will continue to drive a sundry of federal agency programs.

Very vampiry.

Peace.

337 Mitt Romney is 76. He should retire. In my denomination we have a mandatory retirement age of 75. Several people get brought back when older and do a fine job, but we all know there are too many cognitively impaired people in the Congress (Feinstein, Fetterman, McConnell and probably others) who should be gone, and yet they're kept on and their aides vote for them. Shameful.

339 The moment I knew Romney would lose to Obama, despite leading in polls, is when debate moderator Candy Crowley started openly arguing with him, and he was too polite to shred her a new asshole. It was crystal clear he didn't understand what he was up against.
Posted by: Huck Follywood at September 14, 2023 08:07 AM (MCbzQ)

I think he knew exactly what he was "up against". I don't think he ever intended to win. He's a globalist POS and Obama advanced the globalist cause more than Romney could have.

Exit strategy?
In Denver, our mayor is building micro-housing developments, one in each district, with onsite services including mental health, drug rehab and employment assistance. I can't imagine much of an exit strategy once those are established, only the need for more and more. . .

I looked at the Scottish data when they released it for example. The summer they released the clot shot they had 2500 excess deaths over the previous summers, including the ones with COVID.

Son (Tagg I think) runs several opaque hedge funds of which Mitt Romney was the original seed investor which is why you cannot discount personal finances being involved for either of them. Those hedge funds exploded in value after Mitt ran for President in 2012 and was one of the reasons that Tagg was not formally involved in the 2012 campaign where he was in 2008. Mitt joined the funds until 2019 when he became senator.

From the Solamere Fund's website, "Solamere Capital is a $2 billion multi-strategy private equity investment firm founded in 2008 by Tagg Romney, Eric Scheuermann, and Spencer Zwick, and in partnership with Mitt Romney (who stepped down in 2019 to join the U.S. Senate). Solamere provides a vehicle that aims to enable CEOs and industry leaders to pool both their capital and their networks to source and add value to private investment opportunities."

407 >>Dove has gone completely woke. Meet “fat liberation” activist Zyahna Bryant, the new face of the company. She ruined the life of a white student, Morgan Bettinger, over a misheard remark.

Ugh. They've been pushing "body positivity" in their ads for years, but selecting this person as a spokesman. . .?
No.NJNBHN.

409 they’ve even manipulated the definition of recession

Just like the definition of "vaccine" changed in, oh, what was it...2021?

411 392 Dove will probably be fine. They are already the company of woke, homely women. This is very on-brand for them. It probably won't make a lick of difference.

Eh, the most effective thing most 'conservatives' could do is buy generics which bypass and defund the hideous spokesmodels chosen by marketers.

412 For investments the advice is to diversify.

That theory works well for energy production as well, along with a focus on comparative advantage.

If you have dammable bodies of water use that. Southern deserts? Solar can make sense. But in America we have basically an infinite amount of coal, so as long as we have a growing population we should be buildings massive numbers of new coal plants.

415 I remember when there was an analysis of "COVID" deaths and it found that everything from knife-murders to motorcycle accidents were claimed to be COVID deaths. Why? Because the person nominally had COVID when they died.

There was $14K in COVID money per death.

I have mentioned my mind is a sewer for useless info. She was big back in the late 90s and early 00s on the internet.

419 Hillary is "all in" with Biden running for a 2nd term. You have to give it to the Clintons, Pelosis, some other critters; they have no shame.

We're also hours away from autoworkers strike. I'm in a 'f' all mood today.

I assume there are no chain of evidence problems with the FBI's copy of the laptop, as they took the original from the repair shop.
If they haven't bleach bit and hammered it by now.

Fir all Hunter Biden's supposed griftmost of the time according to his accountant he had trouble paying his monthly bills.
As for SCANDAL! I would certainly rank son in law Kudhner's getting 2 BILLION from the Saudis much higher.
Saudis are jacking the price of gas up. Again

[Kurt: The evidence against the Bidens is massive, detailed and confirmed. As for "Kushner" (learn to spell) and the Saudis, we were energy independent between 2017 and 2021 and a net exporter of petroleum products for the first time in decades. Fuel was the cheapest adjusted for inflation since pre-1973. And then Biden was installed and declared war on progress and the economy. Stop drinking diseased semen; it enhances your innate ignorance. Hit my tip jar you cheap bastard - jjs]

430 Good day! This post couldn't be written any better!
Reading this post reminds me of my old room mate! He always kept chatting
about this. I will forward this post to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read.
Many thanks for sharing!
