The Morning Report - 12/22/21

Good morning, kids. Wednesday, and as Rod Serling used to say, "submitted for your approval."

Some time before Tuesday, November 8th, 2022, the junta that is now controlling our government is going to declare a state of emergency, most likely as a result of the Phi Beta Kappa variant of the original Chinese Lung AIDS, and suspend the midterm elections. The reason will be to protect the health and safety of the American people. Naturally, the US military will be called in to use deadly force on anyone who protests, since protesting is a threat to our collective health and safety.

If anyone would have said this even in the run up to 2020, I'd have called them a tinfoil hat nutter. Now? After everything we have been subjected to for the past "two weeks" (91 in human years), that ain't just Kreskin channeling the spirit of Nostradamus. If, and as I always use now as my standard qualifier, Dao-Min Yen is not going to be a factor, the Democrats are facing a wipe out to end all wipe outs at the polls. Having come within one vote of putting the final nail in the coffin that was the Constitution, they are not going to be denied.

Look, these evil maggots telegraphed and outright declared that Donald Trump would not be allowed to be re-elected. Like plutonium-frosted Kaboom, the 2020 election was "fortified" with vitamins and minerals but mostly a healthy dose of agitprop combined with the evisceration of whatever fig leaf of a pretext of a pretense of election security there might have been, and then the last minute emergency ballot dumping at 9PM in 6 states to seal the deal. Stanley McChrystal, a loathsome fiend who once desecrated an American uniform by putting it on, was the chief engineer behind this so-called "orange revolution" that overthrew President Trump and the will of at least 78 million-plus Americans to install the angry, shambling, dotard of a kiddy-diddling Aqualung in the Oval Office.

Another key player in that conspiracy was none other than Hillary Clinton. Despite reports of a fire sale at Clinton Crime Family HQ, as contributions dwindle, reports of her fading away into the wilderness could be premature:

The other day, in an interview with NBC News, Hillary Clinton went public with a warning -- or was it a dog whistle to Democrats and the left? It might be an instance of Hillary's mouth running ahead of her brain, but don't count on it. Hillary is a coldly calculating woman -- and that might be one of her better qualities.

Hillary suggested that if Trump or "someone of his ilk" is elected president in 2024, then American democracy is kaput. Foolishness? Knowing the conceits and delusions that infect her intended audience, her suggestion might not seem ludicrous. Hillary's side listens to her, so her words carry weight.

From National Review, December 13:

"I think that could be the end of our democracy," [Hillary] said. "Not too be too pointed about it, but I want people to understand that this could be a make-or-break point. If he or someone of his ilk were once again to be elected president, especially if he had a Congress that would do his bidding, you will not recognize our country."

Hillary's inference? If Trump or DeSantis (the most likely GOP presidential nominee should Trump not run) wins the presidency -- in a democratic and presumably fair election, no less, and has the backing of an elected Republican Congress -- then the nation has arrived at a "make-or-break point. . . "

. . . Goes the logic, if Republicans assume control of the national government in January 2025, they'll destroy all that we believe in and live by. If Republicans end democracy, as Hillary says, then the normal mechanisms for redress and change (elections, primarily) disappear. What's left? Is the recourse rebellion, armed conflict, war... government overthrow? . . .

. . . Does Hillary want civil war? Doubtful. Her calculations are shorter term and always self-interested. Her comments are a way of recapturing centerstage in her party. Her eye is on a 2024 presidential run, so her words were meant to grab attention and galvanize the Democrat base. Hillary wants to lead the charge, starting with the midterms, to boost her White House prospects.

Whether or not she wants a civil war is irrelevant. Yes, she is making these appearances and statements in the hopes of perhaps positioning herself as the contender that replaces Joe-Blow by some sort of acclamation in Congress, if that is even legal. Not that that matters for much these days, but I digress. But as to civil war, she perhaps knows - as was the subject of yesterday's editorial - that the military, as well as perhaps national and even state and local law enforcement are in the junta's pocket and ready to crush any sort of armed or even unarmed and peaceful resistance.

And then there's this madness from the other contender for the worst woman in the world, Malig-Nancy Pelosi:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sent a letter to Democrat lawmakers on Monday detailing "a full program of events" to remember the January 6 riot in the Capitol.

What happened that day isn't really in dispute. A couple of hundred people breached the Capitol and behaved like idiots. But if what occurred that day was an "insurrection," it will surely go down in history as the most comical and futile attempt to overthrow a government in history -- more ludicrous than the Beer Hall Putsch in 1923.

This begs the question: Why do the Democrats feel they have to portray the events that day as a "rebellion" or a "revolt" when the chances were less than zero that the election results could be overturned? It was a riot, nothing more.

It's all about the narrative, of course. It doesn't matter that there wasn't a serious plot to actually overthrow the government. That's beside the point. If a bunch of drunken Oath Keepers, QAnon kooks, and Proud Boy mouth-breathers conspired in their little fantasyland to keep Trump in power, how is that relevant to national security?

First of all, a hearty fart in the general direction of author Rick Moran for ignoring the fact that the break-in and rioting such as it was, was caused by agents provocateurs of the FBI and even glowies themselves. Meanwhile scores of innocent protesters still remain political prisoners of Biden and Pelosi. But, he does note the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch. Schickelgruber and company turned that day into a combination of Christmas, Easter and Ramadan all rolled into one gigantic state religion complete with blood-soaked flags and uniforms as relics of the martyrs. Pelosi and the junta doing this is akin to zombie Reinhard Heydrich planning a Holocaust Memorial Day. Ludicrous on the face of it, unless of course you get your news and information from the New York Times and CNN. It serves a purpose to further a narrative that "our precious democracy" (vomit) remains imperiled by Trump and his supporters, i.e. 200 million or so American citizens who still revere and want to restore the Constitution as written.

Despite all of this careful or really ham-fisted propaganda and gaslighting. the whole illusion is being shattered by the absolute train wreck of domestic and foreign policy disasters that the Klain/Kalorama Klown Komintern has unleashed on us. People want no more of it and in fact, polling shows Trump kicking Biden's ass in a theoretical re-match. So the whole J-6 as the greatest threat to our democracy is not cutting any ice with the electorate.

What to do, then? Ah yes. Continue to instill fear that not only is a friggin' flu virus going to kill you but that anyone refusing vaccinations, boosters and masks is a threat to your life -- and of course "our precious democracy."

That there is the "x" factor that scares me. And that will be the pretext that lights this whole shithouse up in flames.

On another note, I came to a realization yesterday that while it's great that Manchin torpedoed the Bolshevism Uber Alles act, I have to temper all the "attaboys" and praise by asking where was Manchin when McCain turned his thumb down on killing Obamacare? More importantly, where was he seven years earlier when it came up for the original crooked vote back in 2010? Perhaps torpedoing Obama back then might have saved us from where we are now. Meh, this has been our trajectory since 1913. The best we ever got was Reagan slowing it down and then Trump even stopping it for a while and almost throwing it in reverse. Of course, that was not to be allowed and, as Jimmy Durante said, "deez are da condishins dat prevail."

I'm mortified.
