The Morning Report — 2/27/24

Good morning, kids. You can measure desperation with leftists in a couple of ways. First, there's violence. Even with a media that acts as both shield and cudgel in terms of advancing a preferred narrative while bashing any strong voices that run contra to same, there's nothing like a Molotov cocktail, riot or even an assassination attempt or two to get the point across. And that seems to be where we are.

The question is, while the violence may be nod-and-a-wink approved of or even actively orchestrated by the Junta in power, will it get to a point where it becomes out of control? My guess is we're about to find out. While each of these several incidents in their own right are worthy of an Ace of Spades flaming skull, the fact that they occurred for all intents and purposes almost simultaneously makes you sit up and take notice.

First, we have a little envelope of white powder, and it is not like Hunter Biden's llello at all:

“It’s just become a little bit too commonplace that this sort of stuff happens,” Donald Trump Jr. told the Daily Caller. “Clearly, if this happened to a prominent Democrat it wouldn’t be tolerated and would drive news coverage for weeks. The media would blame all Republicans and force them to answer for it, But since it’s me, radical haters on the left will largely get a free pass and the media will barely flinch.”

“It doesn’t matter what your politics are, this type of crap is unacceptable,” Donald Trump Jr. continued. “This is actually the second white powder substance envelope that’s been mailed to me. The last time we had this happen, it was during my father’s presidency and my then-wife opened it up with my kids by her side. So, it’s just sad that we live in a society where politics and the left’s hatred of my father would drive people to do such crazy things, but that’s where we are unfortunately.”

As Don Jr. alludes to Ace aphorism #1, "Our speech is violence. Their violence is speech." What's almost as horrifying about this is the fact that the reaction from the Left at best is silence and at worst is to not only wish death on Don Jr.. and his family but to cheer it and defecate on his and his family's graves believing them to be a cancer needing eradication. This is the depths to which they have dragged us.

Case Number 2, and while this one raises an eyebrow for a couple of reasons, it should not be discounted out of hand considering who the supposed target is:

Allegedly, a man named Vasiliev Pyotr Alexievich has been arrested in Moscow under suspicion that he was paid by Ukrainian Intelligence to assassinate independent journalist Tucker Carlson while he was in Russia to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin.

There’s video of Alexievich allegedly confessing to the plot to kill Carlson through a car bomb at the Four Seasons hotel he was staying at. The man was arrested by authorities before he could carry out the terrorist action. .Above, I said “allegedly” because Alexievich’s confession almost seemed scripted. One cannot put it past the Russians to produce propaganda, but we can also not discount these reports as false.

So, okay. Vladimir Putin, an ex-KGB officer and current presiding strongman of Russia knows a thing or two about propaganda, to put it mildly. And Tucker Carlson's recent sit-down with him was less of an interview with interesting bi-play than it was allowing Putin to drone on incessantly as to his side of the Ukraine conflict. But the fact remains that Tucker Carlson is the most prominent actual journalist on the right (his recent foot-in-mouth stupidities about Israel as CBD wrote about the other week notwithstanding). If Zelensky were to take him out, the Dems would openly cheer that as "striking a blow for freedom" or some such rot.

But wait, there's more! Yeah, I know. It's on a bomb planted at the Alabama attorney general's office. Big deal, ho hum.

An explosive device was detonated outside of Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall’s office early Saturday morning, he said in a statement on Monday.

Marshall said that “no staff or personnel were injured by the explosion" . . . The announcement did not say if a motive has been identified or if there are any suspects. . .

. . . When asked if the incident could be related to Marshall’s stance on in vitro fertilization (IVF), Amanda Priest, spokesperson for Marshall’s office, told CNN that media should “not jump to conclusions about a specific issue.”

One day before the incident, Marshall announced that his office had no intention of using a recent Alabama Supreme Court decision to prosecute families pursuing IVF or IVF providers. “[Marshall] has no intention of using the recent Alabama Supreme Court decision as a basis for prosecuting I.V.F. families or providers,” Katherine Robertson, the office’s chief counsel, said in a statement.

In February, the state Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos are considered unborn children under state law and that anyone who destroys them may be held liable under the state’s Wrongful Death of a Minor Act. The ruling has raised complex legal and ethical questions and has sent Democrats and Republicans scrambling to introduce legislation to protect IVF in the state. At least three clinics in Alabama have reportedly paused IVF services following the ruling.

I'm linking a pretty thorough essay right here on this case, in particular on how it obviously redounds, or is intended to redound on Roe, Roe, Roe the Vote! That is, in reality it doesn't but desperate Dems will of course do anything to distract from the disaster of the past three years, most especially that of the erased border which I will get to in a moment.

But in this instance, the salient point is the planting of a bomb at the offices of the AL AG as, yet again, the ultimate expression of Leftist free speech, which given the completely corrupt nature of our justice system, is absolutely inalienable – but only when it comes from their mouths, or from their Weather Underground pipe bomb factories.

These days, the Weather Underground is above ground and, guess where?!

At least sixteen universities are promoting the book “How to Blow Up A Pipeline,” which outlines for readers how to commit eco-terrorism — oftentimes making it required reading, a Daily Wire investigation found.

The book was published in 2021 by Swedish professor Andreas Malm and calls for terrorism and overthrowing capitalism, acknowledging that people will be killed as a result. “Demolish them, burn them, blow them up. Let the capitalists who keep investing in the fire know that their properties will be trashed,” the book says.

Now multiple state-funded universities took classes that were nominally on unrelated topics, and contorted them into courses that read just four books, including the pipeline manifesto and a communist manifesto. At the University of California-Berkeley, for example, students of Geography & Interactive Biology were required to read the book. Instructors Jake Kosek and Paul Fine took what was ostensibly a biology course and transformed it into one on “decolonization.” The syllabus states that the “class focuses on the scientific practice of modern botanical taxonomy as a colonial formation that conditions our modern relations” and how the names of plants “were often forged to be of service to empire-building.”

The lessons across the country suggest that universities’ support for terrorism extends beyond the students supporting Hamas on many campuses. In fact, the book looks to Palestinian terrorists for inspiration, advising that, “As part of the mass resistance in the besieged Gaza Strip in the spring of 2018, Palestinians invented techniques for sending kites and helium-inflated condoms carrying incendiary materials across the wall to burn Israeli property.”

. . . A New York Times interviewer was taken aback at Malm’s willingness to cause death. “It’s hard to think that deaths don’t become inevitable if there is more sabotage,” the interviewer said.

“Sure, if you have a thousand pipeline explosions per year, if it takes on that extreme scale. But we are some distance from that, unfortunately,” Malm answered.

“Don’t say ‘unfortunately,’” the interviewer interjected.

“Well, I want sabotage to happen on a much larger scale than it does now. I can’t guarantee that it won’t come with accidents,” Malm replied . . .

. . . “If I were part of a group where something like blowing up a pipeline was perceived as a tactic that could be useful for our struggle, then I would gladly participate,” he said. “I have engaged in as much militant climate activism as I have had access to” and “I’ve done things that I can’t tell you or that I wouldn’t tell others publicly.”

Ah yes, the old Eggs v Omelettes argument. Funny how proto-Democrat Josef Stalin said "The death of one is a tragedy. The death of a million is a statistic." But that becomes rather an inconvenient truth, so to speak, when the zapato is on the other foot. Here is odious lipid mass Katie Porker to 'splain you:

University of Georgia police arrested Jose Antonio Ibarra, an immigrant from Venezuela who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border illegally, and charged him with murdering 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley. Porter, who is running for Senate, tried to deflect attention from Ibarra’s immigration status.

“Well, I think what a horrible tragedy likes, like this happens, I think whenever we‘re dealing with violent crime, there is a sense of outrage, of sadness and of loss, but I think the important thing to focus on is any one instance shouldn‘t shape our overall immigration policy, which has so many different facets, including economic choices about what workers to allow and how to create prosperity in America,”Porter told CNN host Erin Burnett. “So the situation is tragic and it‘s a loss and it‘s important to acknowledge that, but also to recognize all the other how all the other parts of immigration policy fit together.”

If only that fat slag read the Morning Report yesterday, she'd have been able to adjust her math to at least FOUR innocent women (War on Women!) who were raped and/or murdered by our Spark-of-Divinity boys. And it's a hell of a lot more than that considering at least a third of all violent criminals behind bars are illegal aliens. If by "creating prosperity in America" Porker means fueling the funeral industry, then for sure open borders is great for the economy!

As for that cupcake who immolated himself in front of the Israeli embassy, he has a rather interesting résumé:

If you had told the average person that an anarchist or an airman had set himself on fire to protest Israel’s campaign against Islamic terrorists, you would get two very different reactions.

Unsurprisingly the media led with the data point most likely to produce a favorable reaction. And Aaron Bushnell cynically played the same game, wearing (the wrong) uniform to his Hamas suicide attempt rather than the Antifa red in which he had been previously photographed.

The Washington Post gets around to admitting that Bushnell was an “anarchist” . . . But the Washington Post then misleadingly suggests he was raised in a Christian cult. . . The reality is COJ was a leftist cult that appealed to high-flying liberals.

A 1985 article in Boston magazine characterized the C of J members as a “roll call €¦ from the Social Register and Who’s Who” — executives or children of executives of major corporations, an ex-chairman of the global accounting firm that is now Ernst & Young and former president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, an ex-assistant defence secretary, a former senior editor from Doubleday, family scions of Texas oil and agriculture money, the daughter of a former president of the New York Stock Exchange, a Rockefeller heiress (Isabel Lincoln Elmer, self-styled Cinderella Rockefeller), celebrity Christians such as Jeff and Carrie Buddington, former hippie drug dealers featured in Life magazine…

COJ’s leading ladies appropriated Christianity to found an otherwise generic cult. They were not religious per se until they started to run a faith-healing operation. If you doubt their politics, look at the laudatory New York Times orbit and the fact that most of the critical stories about COJ have come from conservative media outlets like The Boston Herald and Canada’s Globe and Mail.

Who’s the sort of person who would commit suicide in a graphic public way for his politics? Aaron Bushnell was a former leftist cult member who hooked up with anarchist and socialist groups in search of an identity and then killed himself for their approval.

And somehow this guy managed to get into the Air Force unvetted and unchecked. Meh, remember Spenser Rapone, who graduated no doubt with honors from West Point with the Marxist graffiti in his hat? This is the military after being "fundamentally transformed" by Barack Obama. A military that identifies the key threats to our national security as white supremacy and climate change.

Frankly, I'm rather shocked that this Aaron Bushnell psycho didn't strap on a PLO Islami-kaze belt and take out the Israeli embassy instead of just himself.

Meh, that is coming, my friends. For sure that is coming, if not soon then for sure some time this November.

"The Incidence of Myocarditis and Pericarditis in Post COVID-19 Unvaccinated Patients—A Large Population-Based Study


We aimed to study the incidence of post-acute COVID-19 myocarditis and pericarditis. Retrospective cohort study of 196,992 adults after COVID-19 infection in Clalit Health Services members in Israel between March 2020 and January 2021...

We did not observe an increased incidence of neither pericarditis nor myocarditis in adult patients recovering from COVID-19 infection."

36 The book was published in 2021 by Swedish professor Andreas Malm and calls for terrorism and overthrowing capitalism, acknowledging that people will be killed as a result. “Demolish them, burn them, blow them up. Let the capitalists who keep investing in the fire know that their properties will be trashed,” the book says.

If you go down this road or its partner road of simply looting the infrastructure out of the ground for the purposes of selling the scrap metal (the South Africa method), you end up in one of two places:

1. No infrastructure. Enjoy your winter cold, weak harvests, poor transportation and, optimistically, the mid-19th-century standard of living
2. Mercenary armies defending infrastructure. Enjoy your doubled or tripled price and the body counts.

Or, you know, *don't* go down this road. But of course, this last choice isn't a real option. These are revolutionaries.

Now that the NYT has, apparently, run a story about how the CIA set up multiple spying outposts in eastern Ukraine and was running covert operations inside Russia (which supposedly included terror operations) starting around the time that the CIA arranged the coup (or revolution) which put Zelensky's party in power, maybe it's time someone listened to Russia's side of the story.

Biden's 30 x 30 Land Grab

I'm not quite sure where the executive has the authority or power to simply proclaim land off limits but if there is a power of doing, then there should be a power of undoing.

So Trump should simply open up all land that was closed, and while he's at it, he can revert Denali back to Mount McKinley.

67 In the book "The Attack" by Kurt Schlichter he offers up this little nugget; the Islamic terrorists are aided and abetted by rabidly left college age kids. They make crank calls to authorities to confuse the response to the terror attacks, light fires, etc.

In the end they get their just rewards, but IMO Schlicheter's vision of how that plays out is too far fetched.

To add to the madness… he doesn’t even appear to live in Germany.

Not exactly. The latter point is closer to the mark. Some of them aren't stupid - in fact, many of them aren't - but they can't help but put things like this.

Contemporary postmodern academic language is in fact an ecclesiastical language. It's a status, class and group marker. They share this language, know how to speak it and speak it fluently to each other. Like other ecclesiastical and similar languages, it is borderline incomprehensible to normal people.

Academics live, work and socialize in their own language. The more skilled you are with that postmodern monastic language of woke, the better you can do in academia - and the less you can be comprehended outside of it. The quote you provided is not even in that language. It's too clear and straightforward and simple. That quote is just the closest the person could translate it into standard English.

82 I am against IVF on principle, so long as it includes the production and culling of "disposable" embryos. At its core, it's creating people and then murdering them in order to get what you want. It doesn't matter if what you want is a nice and happy and lovely thing. It doesn't matter if those people you made and destroyed will never amount to anything. If you need to not only kill, but to create for the express purpose of eventually killing, other people to make that nice and lovely and happy thing happen, you shouldn't be doing that.

Sometimes ends do justify means, but I don't think they do in this case.

I'm also firmly against explosives based terrorism. But you know i'm weird like that.

++++
This kind of thing is far more dangerous that the destruction of pipelines. This is an assault on knowledge itself, and on epistemology and pedagogy.

Taxonomy is one of the greatest human inventions when it comes to sorting, correlating and synthesizing knowledge. Is the unknown item the same as another? If not, what is it most similar to? Does it represent a new class, or a new sub-class? Is it in a different taxonomic tree altogether? Does it represent new branch?

Taxonomy is how we relate things to each other in the world. It helps us make sense of the world in a meaningful and scalable way and once learned, people can do it intuitively. Even children do it in games: "which of these things is not like the other?"

"All X are Y, but not all Y are X" is made consistently comprehensible with taxonomy. Taxonomy is a fundamental tool for developing and sorting knowledge. Hatred of taxonomy is hatred of knowledge as such.

142 Allegedly, a man named Vasiliev Pyotr Alexievich has been arrested in Moscow under suspicion that he was paid by Ukrainian Intelligence to assassinate independent journalist Tucker Carlson

The Ukes assassinated the daughter of one of Putin's advisors in the same way this guy claims he was planning to assassinate Tucker. And the Uke's recently tortured and murdered an American journalist in Ukraine. Also Tucker is on the formal Uke murder list.

So...the weight of evidence would lean towards "true".

They got the name backwards. It is Pyotr Alexievich Vasiliev.

Unfortunately, I don't see who that is. Certainly I don't trust Trump on this point. He has repeatedly shown he isn't clear on just who his enemies are. He had four years which he largely wasted where this threat is concerned. (There was plenty of other, good stuff. But war on the deep state wasn't his thing. He mostly just took its punches.)

Not that I won't vote for him; I will. But he is far from ideal. At best, he can hold them somewhat at bay, until the real hope arrives.

>>The election, I believe, will be stolen, it will be massive and no-one will do anything about it. YMMV.

The Donks control enough of the voting apparatuses in enough locales to "fortify" the election.

The only possible way the GOP candidate at this point could win is if the turnout is so overwhelming that the Donks/Deep State would have to resort to measures that would make it obvious to everyone what was going on.

210 Democrat-passed laws authorizing a 10-day voting season and permanent absentee voting status violate the Delaware Constitution, a state court ruled on Friday.

Writing for the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, Judge Mark Conner determined that legislation enabling early and “permanent absentee” voting in Delaware elections does not comport with the state’s founding document.

About time judges did their job.

215 The left HATES capitalism, however, the number of millionaires and billionaires drops significantly in countries of non capitalist natures.

During the Trump years the FNM reached a crescendo complaining that normal people were getting too rich and uppity. I remember one writer in a Conde Nast article complaining he had to wait behind a plumber...from Ohio!...to get a table at his favorite restaurant in Paris.

So in a mixed, fascist economic system we are collectively poorer (though not as bad as full on socialism) but the powerful and connected become rich and then also have the power to enjoy benefits that normal people are just not allowed to...

233 "But none of those details mattered enough to deter woke-minded auto industry executives from going all-in anyway. What does matter is money, and Mercedes wants to keep making oodles."

Um, no. What matters is the EPA regulations put in place by Obama Administration, set to go into effect in 2025, forced all automakers to go all-in with EVs, because EVs are the only thing which can meet the ridiculous regulations put in place for emissions and fuel economy.

Trump Administration put a halt on the regulations from January 2017 to January 2021. But when the Deep State installed Biden as "President", the first things he did was put those regulations back in place. It was in 2021 when all US automakers then were forced to go all-in with their programs to meet the 2025 regulations. Vehicle programs start 3-4 years in advance of release of the vehicle builds. For planning and development.

If fuel economy targets are not met, thousands of dollars in fines for every 0.1mpg under target for every vehicle in fleet. If emissions targets are not met, companies are banned from selling vehicles.

It’s the least bad of all their options because mushbrains has been such a catastrophe and he’s getting worse. They probably figure they can hold Trump in check for 4 years and if everything collapses while he’s prez all the better for them as he’ll get the blame…… I really believe Biden is so unpopular if they cheat big enough to re-install him their credibility with a huge percentage of the population will be gone. Even authoritarian regimes need some legitimacy so I don’t think they can go that route. Better to obstruct in the shadows….

277 Story that captures the essence of our crazy times on local news: last night's Aurora, CO city council meeting to discuss vote to *not* fund illegals that are bused/dumped in their city (it passed - they said "sanctuary cities" need to deal with them) is interrupted by muslim immigrants/refugees waving foreign flags and chanting "CEASEFIRE NOW!"

Uh, yeah, why would any city want more of them with this demonstration of how little they care for the country/city that is providing them a new life?

306 Donald Trump Jr. receives death threat and white powder in envelope at Florida home

Trumpers trying desperately to play the victim card. He said “Clearly, if this happened to a prominent Democrat it wouldn’t be tolerated and would drive news coverage for weeks. The media would blame all Republicans and force them to answer for it, But since it’s me, radical haters on the left will largely get a free pass and the media will barely flinch.”

Do you really think you're a "prominent repuglikan"?

Well, since Junior isn't the sharpest tack, they'll probably find his fingerprints on the inside of the envelope. Anything to be a victim. Or, It was probably a "delivery" of cocaine that was intercepted by accident.

I doubt it. It's possible, but I think that's unlikely. This is more about priming the tax pump, I suspect.

Seizing retirement investment accounts will do little if any good to the state and cause such an uproar that it might trigger a crisis. The cost/benefit on it isn't very good.

Doing away with those accounts' "tax-advantaged" status, however, will steal it a bit at a time and cause much less uproar. Simply changing the rules to state "all retirement contributions from this point forward are with post-tax income" and simultaneously (or shortly thereafter) doing away with Roth will create a lot more tax revenue all of a sudden since the money that used to be "untaxed" going into the accounts is now taxes, and the money coming back out will be taxed again later. They'll get to chip away at the totals while not crashing the equity and bond markets and people will bristle but take it.

That's entirely likely. What was it, like 2010 she got appointed? That's fourteen years ago, right? I have no faith in the accuracy of either of those propositions.

But the general point is that treating a decade plus in office as "not that long" is not healthy for a representative type of government.

Aaron Bushnell had that Jared Loughner smile. For his Secret security clearance how did they give this guy a pass much less if his AFSC required a TS? If he was cyber security yikes, all we need is would be Google drones filtering things for the military. And his chain of command had to have had a clue, true believers never shut up about their 'faith.'

357 Sal says mortadella means “the death of the beast of burden” (morta della, “the death of it” and that it was a thrifty way to make use of donkeys and horses that pulled the plow. The meat was ground fine and fat was added to counteract its tough, dry consistency. Sounds like a great breakfast treat.

Two of the Andrews Raiders lived within walking distance of my house. There's an often-bandied assumption that Thomas Chapman ("Lawrence") made a study of their work, but since Andrews came out of nowhere and did not survive the venture, I think it unlikely they wrote any manuals for publication.

We also do a lot of pipeline work up this way. My family were partners in a firm that did subterranean conduit maintenance, but...it went under.

In part, This is just the type of infrastructure that the U.S. fossil fuel industry is currently pushing to fast-track under the guise of "emergency independence," in response to Russia's war on Ukraine.

Update: On April 24, 2023, the U.S. DOT denied the renewal of a permit for Energy Transfer Solutions...to transport LNG by rail from Wyalusing, PA to Gibbstown, NJ. (Side note: They'd always rather have it piped until pipeline construction begins, imo.)

376 U.S. had put an official cap on Mexican immigration. In accordance with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Companies, the U.S. Yet by 1924, previously excluded teams like Mexicans, Black Individuals, and Native Individuals had received citizenship rights, and the legislation really solely utilized to Asians. Traditionally house to the Miwok Native People, the 740-acre island had since housed a large Mexican cattle ranch and a U.S. Over many years whereas I was in Congress, I met with scores of employers in my district who faced horrible pink tape simply to be allowed to bring in temporary agricultural workers who would willingly return home as soon as the work was completed. Chinese passenger who arrived by way of boat in San Francisco before they may very well be allowed on land. The Chinese Exclusion Act and related laws allowed entry only to a couple elite occupations, in addition to children of U.S. Although these immigrants made up solely .002 percent of the U.S. 7 % of the full allowable visas to 1 nation. American immigration didn’t actually start until the late 1700s, when the United States turned an impartial nation. The 1924 act resurfaced in the news in September 2017
