The Morning Report - 2/3/21 [J.J. Sefton]

Good morning, kids. Wednesday and the big story is President-in-exile Donald Trump's second "impeachment" trial. On the face of it, it's an absolute farce; Trump cannot be subject to a process the sole purpose of which is to remove him from an elected office that he no longer occupies. If one needs to go beyond that, the "charges" against him are completely baseless, without merit, and defy the timeline of events that occurred on Black Wednesday, January 6th.

Just off the top of my head, these are the events as I have seen, heard and read about them from multiple, reliable eyewitness sources:

1-The overwhelming majority of rally-goers on January 6th were no doubt fired up and passionate about showing up as a way of registering their displeasure at Congress and VP Pence giving the Good Housekeeping seal of approval to the Electoral College vote.

2-In calling for his supporters to come to DC, at no time did President Trump demand, encourage, promote nor even hint at anyone "getting in the faces" of elected officials or being in any way, shape or form destructive.

3-DC Mayor Muriel Bowser and other Democrat elected officials knew in advance that there would be trouble and yet did not call for reinforcements nor did they take any other precautions. There is ample reason to suspect that she and the echelons of the DC cops as well as high level Democrats colluded with Antifa/BLM agitators in advance to stage Reichstag Fire 2: Electric Boogaloo.

4-The actual breaching of the Capitol buildings were led by Antifa/BLM confederates dressed in MAGA gear and in fact were shown to be let in and guided by Capitol Police. It is they who caused whatever minimal damages to property that occurred. John Sullivan, a rabid racialist BLM-tifa leader called for burning the place down on social media whist wearing a MAGA hat and Palestinian terror towel around his neck. Those few dozen who followed them in were seen to be behaving as if they were on a guided tour instead of the mostly peaceful Democrat arsonists who torched a dozen cities over the course of the summer and afterwards.

5-The breach occurred on or about the time Trump started speaking, so he could not have ordered the storming of the Bastille as it was already well under way. Plus, any honest analysis of what he said will show at no time did he tell people to storm Congress or act in any way, shape or form that could be remotely construed as violent.

6-Ashlii Babbitt was shot in cold blood by a Capitol cop and, surprise surprise, no reasonable prosecutor will hold the killer to account. One has to wonder beyond the actions and mindset of the assassin what would be revealed about his higher ups regarding preparations for that day. But that's just conspiracy talk, right? The others who sadly died that day evidently were not as a result of any violent confrontation.

7-When he learned of what was going on in Congress, Trump himself told everyone to disperse and go home as quickly, quietly and peacefully as possible.

I'm not going to even get into the rank hypocrisy of dozens of Democrat politicians, propagandists and others exhorting the Dresdenization of dozens of American cities and towns, as well as verbally and even physically assaulting Trump allies and voters while getting all worked up over what in the end amounted to the equivalent of a college panty raid, the tragic deaths of Babbitt and the others notwithstanding and crucially unrelated to the breach (although Babbitt is for sure another matter). Naturally, all of this has been ignored, twisted and outright censored by the propagandists and Big Brother Tech, and will be ruled inadmissible at the trial. But all of this is a distraction from the real thrust of this story.

This is a classic Soviet-style show trial being conducted by an illegitimate junta who seized power via a hijacked election (the presidency and quite likely a number of down-ballot races over and above the two Georgia Senate seats). It's goals are a) to smear, humiliate and perhaps hold PIEOTUS Trump civilly or criminally liable for the deaths and whatever damage occurred, b) by securing a conviction prevent him from running again in 2024 (as if the election-rigging will not be perfected long before then as well as bolstered by mass amnesty among other things), and c) send an unmistakable dead-fish Luca Brasi Sicilian message to the 80 million of us who voted for him and the millions more who are now prisoners to the New World Order: resistance is not only futile but dangerous to your health.

In a way, my phraseology in referring to Trump as the President-in-exile of the United States actually confers legitimacy on an impeachment trial, and in its own way reveals how the Enemy Junta, beyond its hatred, is scared shitless of him and by extension upwards of two thirds of the population of the nation formerly known as America that it both reviles yet is dependent upon for its existence. That is potentially its Achilles heel, and the key to its downfall.

Let's not kid ourselves; we're up against not only a dictatorship but one that is exponentially more powerful, intrusive and coercive than potentially any in history by virtue of technology. Yet the most powerful tool at its disposal is the eagerness of a not insignificant portion of the populace, perhaps from one third or more, to act as its enforcers. Google, Facebook, the IRS and even the FBI can be thwarted. But your bank, your doctor, your employer, your neighbor and even your own family are another story.
