The Morning Report — 2/7/24

Good morning, kids. Boy oh boy the shit is hitting the fan today. First, the GOP once again proves its bona fides as the Grifting Oleaginous Parasites.

The House of Representatives let Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas off the hook for the border crisis created under his watch in a historic 216-214 vote against impeachment.

Reps. Ken Buck (R-CO) and Tom McClintock (R-CA) announced before the vote they would vote against impeachment. They were joined by Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI) in voting with unified Democrats. After the vote was decided, Rep. Blake Moore (R-UT) voted nay, but only for procedural reasons so that the House may vote on the measure again at some point. . .

Buck, who announced last year this would be his final term and has openly expressed a desire to work for [MSNSDAP] or [XiNN], and McClintock, who last year told Breitbart News Daily he believes the impeachment is unconstitutional, were seen as immovable. . .

. . . The defeat is the latest for Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), who inherited a slim majority that has been decimated further by the ejection of Rep. George Santos (R-NY), early retirement of Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), and, temporarily, the absence of Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA), who is recovering from cancer. Johnson may bring the impeachment resolution to the floor again as soon as tomorrow but has not announced his plans.

Meanwhile, as the GOP tries to figure out more ways to try, and mostly fail, to fool us into believing they're a principled opposition party, the Democrats literally wheel in sub-moron Eddie Munster Woof-Woof doppelgänger Al Green, straight from an operating room, barefoot and dressed in a hospital gown to vote "no." Unreal, as in all too real.

Don't get me wrong; I'm not ripping the GOP for not doing the same with Steve Scalise. The point is the Dems will stop at nothing to win, legally if possible, or the other 99.99% of the time, amorally, unethically and criminally. Our side will not. And I don't mean breaking the law or rules to do so but merely fighting as passionately as the scumbag Lefties do, and coming back again and again and again. They don't and won't mostly because they can't. The GOP is controlled by an equally amoral, venal element that cares about one thing: wetting their beak off of, and in service to the Democrat-Leftists' and now corporatists' quest for absolute power via the destruction of the republic.

With that said, while Mike Johnson is turning into a bitter disappointment, what I just stated is likely a huge reason for his failures. In that light, it's kind of a miracle that his controlling of the gavel makes the sham emergency border security bill DOA. About the only positive spin I can put on this is regardless of the propaganda that the GOP and Trump are to blame for the disaster at the border and the refusal to pass this alleged cure for the problem, a very large portion of the public can see right through that.

The case in point is the situation where wet meets back on the Rio Grande, where the potential for shit to get real just got cranked up a few notches. Or has it?

The left has been urging [so-called quote-unquote "president"] Biden to federalize National Guard troops to reopen Texas's border where illegal immigrants have been overrunning the state. It appears Biden has begun the process of doing that by ordering the Alaska National Guard to get ready to deploy to the border in support of the federal government, not the security of the border.  

Texas has been securing the border with layers of concertina wire on top of stacks of shipping containers — a wall, in other words. Texas Gov. Gregg Abbott calls the program "Operation Lone Star." The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in January that the federal government could take down Abbott's razor wire while Texas's rights to prevent an invasion are appealed. 

The announcement of the National Guard deployment plan is a brushback pitch by the Biden Administration to Texas and a signal to his leftist base that he heard them. 

The Anchorage Daily News reports that the deployment of the troops is scheduled for 2025 — after the election.

[T]he Alaska National Guard on Friday said that a memorandum from the federal government had been issued, directing Alaska forces to prepare two LUH-72 Lakota helicopters and 20 guardsmen to potentially be deployed in early 2025. The units would help provide aviation support to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said Alaska National Guard spokesperson Alan Brown. Maj. Ryan Wierzbicki, a spokesman for the U.S. Army’s Joint Task Force North, said in a phone interview that Alaska guard members could be sent to any of four states along the border, including Texas and Arizona. 

But the Guard won't go to help Texas stanch the onslaught of humanity; rather, it will do the federal government's bidding.  "Brown said there are currently no plans for Alaska National Guard soldiers to be deployed in support of [Abbott's] Operation Lone Star," the Daily News reported. 

Abbott claims the new Ukraine funding bill, which claims to be a border bill, removes his and other states' rights to sue the federal government within their own states. The bill requires that all lawsuits against the federal government be heard in the overwhelmingly leftist District of Columbia.

Emphasis mine. The Kalorama Klown Komintern understand that the massive invasion of foreigners they intentionally set in motion is the #1 issue with voters. Whatever bullshit agit-prop is being spewed on the usual State-aligned house organs stands in sharp contrast with the optics that reflect the facts on the ground. That is, Governor Greg Abbott by erecting barriers and deploying his state's law enforcement units to interdict the invasion is actually solving the problem. At least the ground invasion route that runs through Texas.

Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants? After denying for months on end that there was no border crisis and then suddenly, with the election looming, shrieking there is one and it's Trump's and Abbott's fault, we need to pass a bill! 370 pages long. With no time to review it. And some of the leaked pages showing (as Abbott notes above) it actually empowers the invasion to continue unimpeded, pays lip service at best to "security," greases the skids for mass amnesty, and sends the overwhelming lion's share of money to Ukraine, Gaza and Israel.

Remember first and foremost that it's Abbott's shipping all those allegedly mythical illegal alien invaders to blue shit hole sanctuary cities that is arguably one of the most effective political moves in decades insofar as making the Democrats eat their words about their sanctuary policies, on top of their defund the police movement that has made the national crime wave 100 times worse and most crucially pissed off an ever increasing percentage of their once rock hard, reliable base.

Thank you, Governor Abbott. Your action negates the bullshit from the junta. That's why they won't deploy forces now to confront you. Yet while Obama seems to be shitting Joey's Depends by delaying the move until after the election, if Biden or Big Mikey Forearms or Kamala "Jaws (Teeth & Tongue)" come out on top of Trump (as in 2020, the word "win" will not be applicable) you better believe they are indeed going to move on Texas. I would not put it past them to even arrest Abbott, Ken Paxton and perhaps the entire Republican side of the state legislature.

It looks as if rank and file CBP agents, at least anecdotally, are up in arms over this bill and by extension their overlords in DC who so far have failed to ram it through. But what of the National Guardsmen or should it come to it actual US military personnel? I believe there are strong proscriptions against their deployment within our borders against the citizenry. But we are dealing with tyrants who have long since abrogated their oaths and sold their souls to Satan. After everything we've been through these past three years, nothing is going to stand in their way. So my question stands.

Before I get into my analysis, I want to make it clear I believe that anyone who wants a civil war to happen in the U.S. is dangerously naïve, insane, or working for one of America’s enemies.  Imagine a Russia-Ukraine-type conflict in the U.S.

Thanks to Hollywood, most Americans believe that rebellions can be started and won by small ragtag groups of patriots, freedom fighters, insurrectionists, or everyday common folk.  All you need are pistols, assault weapons, bows and arrows, and maybe a few Molotov cocktails.  Blow up the Death Star, and the problem is solved.

But that is not how it usually works.  Revolutions require armaments, soldiers, money, something worth fighting for, and popular support.  Unless lives are at stake, few people are angry or committed enough to leave jobs or families to risk going to jail or dying needlessly. . .

The author cites a number of examples of rebellions and the Revolution and Civil War itself. Continuing . . .

. . . You might notice a pattern here. First, important issues divide our country, like independence versus obedience to the king or slavery versus freedom.  Then, either a military skirmish occurs before sides get chosen or sides get chosen before the military gets involved.  Both the Revolution and the Civil War were started by state military organizations, not by groups of armed radicals.

We are at a similar junction in history right now.  Politics has divided the country, and the pivotal issue is unlimited illegal immigration.  Few wanted it.  No one expected it when he voted for Biden.  And now almost no one is willing to pay the price socially or financially to support it.

The White House may have believed that its open border policy would get someone, anyone, to pick up a gun to stop the madness.  It would give Biden an excuse to impose martial law, ban assault weapons or handguns, or both.  But the horde of right-wing extremists the far-left fantasizes about does not exist.

It seems the [junta[ may have gone too far too fast.  The whole country is aware of this issue, and opposition is rising, leading the states to get directly involved. 

The Texas National Guard has been sent to the border to stop the flow of migrants.  Roughly half of the states have declared their support for Texas. If Democrats want to continue unlimited illegal immigration, Biden could nationalize the Texas National Guard, take control, and send it home.

But what happens if Texas says no?  Would Biden order the armed forces to disarm or attack the Texas Guard?  Would the use of the armed forces be legal?  Do Democrats care?

No. They don't. They are banking on both the power of the media and technology to control narratives and keep people silent and obedient, if not happy. They think it can trump (heh) the fact that the majority of the citizenry are armed to the teeth, gambling that we'd never use it. What it would take are an economic crash and civil unrest that directly touches their lives – and with the economy on the brink and 8 million invaders in our midst, on top of the 40 million already here, plus an anarcho-terroristic crime wave going strong it's going to do just that. But, it will take a public figure or figures for the citizenry to rally around when indeed all bets are well and truly off.

We're not there yet. God help us if we ever do get to that point but I fear there's no way to stop it, especially if 2024 goes the way of 2020. And with that in mind, here's a little story that caught my eye this morning. See if you can see what this portends vis a vis the current situation at the border:

Squatters are ruining entire neighborhoods in Atlanta and police response to evict is so slow, some homeowners have resorted to paying nuisances to leave.

Brazen squatters even opened an illegal strip club on a property they had taken over — one of the 1,200 homes which has been squatted in the city according to the National Rental Home Council (NRHC) trade group. “I’d be terrified in Atlanta to lease out one of my properties,” Matt Urbanski, who manages a local home-cleaning company, told Bloomberg. Urbanski’s company cleans out homes for corporate landlords, and in some cases has to remove squatter’s posessions. Recently one of his employees was shot after attempting to remove intruders from a property.

Simon Frost, CEO of large-scale landlord Tiber Capital Group, said there have been incidents of unlawful occupants brandishing weapons and threatening neighbors which affects the safety of neighborhoods and other residents, according to Bloomberg. Evicting squatters in Atlanta is tough, involving negotiating court backlogs and strained police resources. Meanwhile, online listings and virtual real estate agents make it easy for squatters to identify vacant properties to break into.

In October, an Atlanta neighborhood found itself at the center of a scandal involving squatters who transformed a home into an illegal strip club, complete with weekend parties and even live horses on the property.

The drama unfolded at in the South Fulton area when, where four individuals — DeAnthony Maddox, Jeremy Wheat, Kelvin Hall, and Tarahsjay Forde — took up residence without permission. Little did the neighbors know, the 4,000 square foot, five-bedroom home with three bathrooms would become a den of illicit activity. The squatters ran the clandestine strip club, held noisy parties and even organized car races in the street, ruining the neighborhood for others, according to local reports.

“They would get live horses. One day they had live horses,” one neighbor told Atlanta station WSB-TV TV2. Eventually a SWAT team had to clear out the house and recovered two stolen cars, a stolen weapon and stolen credit cards from the property, according to the local report.

One neighbor told The Post they are afraid to even go on vacation because if squatters find out the home is vacant they just move right in. “Is this even America anymore? We are homeowners and we can’t even do anything about trespassers?” The neighbor said in frustration.

Atlanta. Georgia. Reminds me of Fani "Gotta-Be-Da-Butt-Bob" Willis. She's otherwise engaged and is also a squatter. Mostly squatting on Darius Wade's penosterous between trying to railroad Donald Trump. Too busy to fight actual crime. Meh, this kind of activity is allowed because of the decriminalization of crime in the name of "social justice."

This garbage with individuals of a melanin content not to be discussed is horrible enough. But that's not what sparked my Spidey-sense to start tingling. Recall a number of blue shit hole governors and mayors offering to pay people to house illegal alien migrant invaders which resulted in a less than enthusiastic response from the citizenry. Bupkis. Less than bupkis. It was bupkis-lite. It was less than the lint bupkis has in its pockets.

So when a sleazy criminal tyrant like for instance Maura "Heal Thyself" Healy doesn't have volunteers, she'll just pick some.

You think the Dems won't just declare some sort of emergency and seize unoccupied homes to "temporarily" house illegal aliens?

Quartering of soldiers? Pfft! The Supreme Court is going to rule on whether unrealized income can be taxed.

What all of this boils down to is this:

Based on what his intentional erasing of our border and of all sane immigration controls has wrought on this nation and its citizenry, I defy anyone to tell me I'm wrong.
