The Morning Report — 1/20/23

etkerrypull.jpg

Good morning kids. As Gracie Slick once sang, "When the truth is found to be lies." The question though is differentiating between the two, and the ensuing consequences once one or the other is established.

The Soviet Union created a false narrative about the October Revolution of 1917 and the occupation of Czar Nicholas’ Winter Palace. Although the Bolsheviks took advantage of a power vacuum in then-Petrograd and virtually walked into the palace unopposed, Bolshevik leader Vladmir Lenin enshrined the moment in a completely fictitious filmed reenactment from 1920 that claimed hundreds of communists were killed taking the Russian summer capitol. That lie became an integral part of Soviet history and the communist mythology that surrounded it. The Soviets repeated the lie so often that it eventually became part of the official record and few people in the West refuted the story.

The Nazis had their Beer Hall Putsch, a failed coup d'état by Adolf Hitler against the Bavarian government that was supposed to expand to a march on Berlin and the assumption of power. Nothing worked out for the Nazis that night, that didn’t stop the Nazis from using this comedy of errors as a source of propaganda, and another Big Lie.

There is a similar kind of misleading going on with the Democrat version of Jan. 6. Are they not promulgating fabled heroes and villains? They ran a series of ridiculous committee meetings around the riot. These hearings were more than vaguely reminiscent of the Stalinist show trials of the 1930s where enemies of the state were paraded in front of the cameras and forced to confess to outrageous charges of treason and sabotage.

America’s once-vaunted national police force and the Department of Justice have become dangerously politicized institutions that seek out, harass and prosecute opponents of the Biden regime.

Recall that a bit over six months prior to that, a hapless career criminal and life-loser named George Floyd was turned into a combination Joe Hill/Horst Wessel and achieved immortality by either dying as a result of ingesting his stash of crystal meth (on top of having a bad heart) after passing a queer Jackson at a convenience store while resisting arrest, or was assassinated in cold blood by a racist cop for no other reason than he was black.

And then, depending how you see it, scores of cities went up in flames and were either willfully destroyed or a justifiably angered mass of oppressed people reacted in "mostly peaceful protests." For sure, too many low-IQ amoral animals, the product of nearly 60 years of Democrat "compassion" that ground their lives and souls into dust, saw that as the green light to go wild. But the matches were lit and the first pre-positioned bricks were hurled by instigators of the professional urban terrorist variety from the ranks of BLM and of course, the progeny of Ernst Roehm, AKA Antifa.

And today, Antifa is at it again, somewhere on the outskirts of Atlanta:

The City of Atlanta has been preparing to tear down a forested area in DeKalb County, Ga., to build a new public safety training center. However, an Antifa group has camped out in the wooded area, making it difficult for the city to clear the land and make progress on the facility.

The left has dubbed the project “Cop City” (akin to calling Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill “Don’t Say Gay"), and earlier this month a judge denied an injunction by protesters using environmental issues as a pretext to stop construction of the facility. Members of the group even refer to themselves as “Forest Creatures” and identify themselves as different animals.

It was a matter of time before the Antifa action would erupt in violence. On Wednesday morning, law enforcement was conducting a “clearing operation” when a state trooper got involved in a shooting match with protesters. The trooper was wounded, but one Antifa member was killed.

Now the group is calling for a “Night of Rage” to reciprocate for the death of the Antifa protester. A Twitter account called “Scenes From the Atlanta Forest” called for vengeful violence.

“Consider this a call for reciprocal violence to be done to the police and their allies. On Friday, January 20th, wherever you are, you are invited to participate in a night of rage in order to honor the memory of our fallen comrade,” read the tweet. . .

. . . The group has also descended on the offices of the contractors in charge of the project and members have reportedly invaded church services where contract employees were worshiping. On his radio show on Thursday, Erick Erickson spoke with a caller who claimed that the group was digging pits in the woods and lighting brush fires in the hopes that firefighters would fall into the pits.

Naturally, this isn’t getting much attention in the national press. You and I both know that if a right-leaning group had threatened violence like this, we would never hear the end of it.

But there’s an interesting wrinkle to this whole story that ties the “Cop City” protesters to two-time Georgia governor loser Stacey Abrams. As PJ Media reported last summer, Abrams serves on the board of the Marguerite Casey Foundation, which gives grants to far-left causes and has called for both defunding and abolishing the police. . .

. . . Now, it’s true that we can’t tie Abrams directly to the protesters who shot a state trooper and are now calling for violence against law enforcement in Atlanta (and other parts of the country), but there’s no denying that her board work with the Marguerite Casey Foundation has laid part of the foundation for what could happen on Friday night.

These people don’t just need to be arrested. Someone needs to lock them up in Gitmo!

Locked up in Gitmo? They should be rounded up, and summarily executed. Mostly peacefully. And as time goes on and the depredations of our alleged law enforcement agencies prove them to be akin to our version of the Gestapo, I'm not going to get all hot and bothered about Miranda rights and due process. Alas, it's not to be. Absolute radio silence from the SPLC, ACLU and of course the DOJ/FBI which have identified the greatest threat to domestic tranquility as white supremacists inspired and/or led by Donald Trump among others.

It still seems like a miracle that Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted in a kangaroo court that could have easily railroaded him into prison for killing one of these Democrat approved or bought-and-paid for street thugs. You better believe your tax dollars among millions from suckers and dupes are finding their way to what can only be described as a terrorist army that, for the time being, is aligned with the short-term political aims of the Democrat Party. Multi-thousand-page Continuing Resolutions, Stimuli, Inflation Reduction Acts, Patient Protection Acts and on and on and on can disguise a hell of a lot of things that come back in the form of hate-shakes to the face, torched pregnancy centers and, of course, "fortified" elections.

But of course Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants declared that Antifa is "just an idea."

Now we have a man in Houston whom the goons want to lynch for the crime against humanity of shooting an armed and dangerous robber at a taqueria.

Funny though how some "ideas" are more equal than others. Some ideas must not be allowed into the discourse because they're "disinformation," such as the truth about the origins of the General Tso's Sickness, the disaster of the lockdowns and face-masks, the near uselessness and even dangers of the vaccines and how common sense and tried-and-tested best practices to mitigate potential pandemics and viral outbreaks were demonized and now, in California, criminalized. And that's just one issue among everything that is driving us towards an abyss to horrid to contemplate, yet clearly in front of us. If we're not in it already.

One overriding principle of the new Democratic Party is asymmetry—or the notion that the Left’s moral superiority earns absolute exemption from the very methods they employ against their opponents.

Disproportionality explains why the historic Mar-a-Lago raid was constructed in bogus fashion as a legitimate search for “nuclear codes.” Yet it would have sparked outrage had the FBI, on rumors of Biden sloppiness, sent armed agents into Jill Biden’s underwear drawers looking for classified papers concerning Ukraine and Iran, or towed away Joe Biden’s Corvette to get access to a garage full of unlawfully stored classified papers, or strewn Biden’s papers across the floor for an FBI concocted photo-op.

The buffoonish protestors and rioters of January 6 were to be jailed for months without formal charges, put in solitary confinement, and often sentenced to the maximum punishment possible. But the rioters, shooters, and killers of 120 days of mayhem and violence during summer 2020 were calibrated as “summer of love” rowdies. Antifa and Black Lives Matter sort of, kind of got a little bit out of hand in torching a police precinct, a federal courthouse, and an iconic Washington, D.C. church, as well as trying to storm the White House grounds, sending the president into an underground bunker.

That Antifa and BLM plotted much of their anarchy and violence on social media unimpeded was unremarked upon. That fact mattered not at all in comparison to the illegal paraders and rioters of January 6. Police who shoot unarmed protestors usually have their identities immediately revealed; yet when they lethally shoot the likes of an Ashli Babbitt, their identities are suppressed, and their questionable conduct lauded. . .

. . . Conservatives should be aware that they are not dealing with the party of JFK and LBJ. The Democratic Party has nothing in common with the agendas of a slick Bill Clinton and is well beyond the “fundamental transformations” of arch-narcissist Barack Obama.

We are faced with a strictly disciplined, no-nonsense revolutionary party, well known from history that aims to change the nation into something unrecognizable by most Americans. And it feels that it has now created the means to do it.

Over time, as is evidenced by the last two paragraphs, the usually even-keeled Victor Davis Hanson is sounding more and more alarmed with each passing essay. And he is dead right about what we're facing.

Have a good weekend.
