The Cuomo Canard

This isn’t about sexual harassment. The reason everyone is jumping on the “impeach/take down Andrew” bandwagon is about advancing the agenda, not defending victims. The Cuomo’s have always epitomized the Leftist political thugocracy. The outcry from the Left is manufactured just like every other meme they create. This one is about countering the Kavanaugh debacle and proving that they “listen to the women”. It’s about being able to say for the 2022 election, “See, we are consistent in demanding justice for women abused by Democrat men too!”

Do you honestly believe the Attorney General of New York, Letitia James, would give a rat’s you know what about the allegations against Cuomo if she weren’t under siege for being a worthless, weak-kneed, political hack AG unwilling to prosecute real crime but ready willing and able to vilify and demonize any conservative or Republican? Having polled her Leftist peers who, against their consciences, supported Cuomo after the nursing home debacle, and having determined that the groundswell against him on the sexual harassment claims was going to build, James ran for the microphone to declare her righteousness. The word had gone out…Cuomo was going to be the sacrificial lamb upon which the Democrats were going to in part depend for the 2020 congressional race.

Next up, law and order. The Left will come up with some new phrase, meme, slogan or whatever to prove to everyone how supporting they are of the police and law and order. They may have wounded themselves so much already that they might even attempt to reverse their idiotic border policy (especially now that they’ve let in hundreds of thousands if not seven figure numbers of illegal aliens).

For the Democrat Left, ANYTHING goes, and when they overstep, overreach, they of course blame everyone but themselves, and will use their skill at creating high-production-value lies and appearances to counter attitudes moving against them. Thus, they will eat their own, they will seek to create the illusion that they are the champions of the electorate, of the People, of the victims, or whatever else suits their immovable goal: The Attainment of Power and Control.

I had to write this blog entry immediately after watching the coverage of the “Cuomo Affair” yesterday and today. The story will vanish by the end of the week, and nothing will happen to Cuomo. The Left, particularly those who have already amassed considerable power, like Cuomo, know exactly how to run out the clock. They know how to weather the storms and wait out the news cycle change. While they have always blamed the Right for Wag the Dog-like sleight of hand maneuvers, it is they who practice that art so skillfully.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if some other “crisis” is manufactured shortly to put the Cuomo affair in the background. Murders on the streets of New York City (which has the added benefit of rubbing Cuomo’s nemesis De Blasio’s nose in the excrement he’s deposited on its streets), perhaps the appointment of a new Border Czar, something having to do with the COVID Delta variant or the new resistant fungus…something will pop up and Cuomo will still be in office, unscathed and untouched, a week, maybe a month from now.

And that’s good. He can serve as a poster boy, typifying what’s wrong with the Left.

I sense, and it’s only a feeling, that the Left’s departure from sanity and the damage it is doing to the country is oozing into the mainstream media. With CNN’s numbers plummeting, the money will dictate that they have to come from the Far Left towards the Center, and as THAT happens, as Fox continues its move to the left, as more and more Newsmax’s and OANN’s arise, things will gravitate to where America really is: Right of Center.

It may take a generation, and the pendulum swing could be accelerated by another major, 9-11-like crisis, but I’m sensing that more and more of America is waking up and starting to recognize the Leftist BS for what it is. Soccer moms now aware of the crap being taught their kids, people fed up with the mask/no-mask, vax’d/not vax’d idiocy, rank and file workers being whipsawed by politically driven, employer compliant, woke policies that are telling them that it no longer pays to work hard, everyone seeing the price of milk and gasoline inexorably rise… increasingly the main stream media will HAVE to cover the “victims” of the Leftist lunacy, and the pendulum will swing the other way.

Hang in there America.

Polls = Nonsense

Please everyone, flip the switch, turn on your brains, put your shields on maximum. The next time you see or hear something like, “The Polls show…” immediately turn it off. Polls are unadulterated nonsense and if you’ve been a faithful reader of this blog you’re not hearing anything you don’t already know. However, it seems the use of polls to create headlines and “news” is reaching an unprecedented decibel level.

Here’s a recent example drawn from the Daily Wire, August 2, 2021.

I have the following questions and proffer some answers:

  • Should anyone care? The answer is “No.”
  • Do polls mean anything, even when they reflect what is obvious to everyone who has half a brain and is awake? “No.”
  • Have YOU ever been polled? Most likely, “No.”
  • Would you agree to participate in a poll if somehow you answered the phone and uncharacteristically gave a pollster enough time to introduce himself? Most likely, “No.”
  • So who is it that participates in these polls? Common sense says it’s people who don’t have anything better to do with their time, are so lonely or affected that having some disembodied voice pay attention to them for five minutes is therapeutic, people who have an agenda that they think will be advanced by participating, or some combination of the above.
  • Can polls possibly represent the productive Traditionalist majority of this country? “No.”

Anyone awake, intelligent, half-way educated, paying attention knows that the Biden/Harris administration is TRULY illegitimate, incompetent and megalomaniacal. The whole lot of them, the puppets and their puppet masters are not just useless for America, they’re systematically trying to “fundamentally transform” it into a centrally-controlled, collectivist faux-utopia where the few dictate the lives of the many. Where money and power are amassed for their pleasure, narcissistic gratification, conscious or unconscious evil intent.

My advice: whenever the word “poll” is mentioned, simply dismiss the rest of the discussion and go back to whatever of substance you were doing.

PSYOP

A Psychological Operation or PSYOP is one which conveys information and indicators that are intended to influence audiences (enemies in military parlance) in one way or another. The information may be true, selectively true, deliberately false, surreptitiously false, deliberately vague or misleading, intended to incite behavior of one sort or another…you get the idea. We’ve all seen enough movies that involve PSYOPs in the plot to understand what it is. Applying the term to what the Left does may seem inflammatory, but perfectly describes what they’re doing.

I’ve referred previously to the term “production values” as the elements of a message that when skillfully put together evoke strong emotions: heart string pulls, angry reactions, deer-in-the-headlights behavior, etc. Those elements include everything from powerful rhetoric and diction to mood music, visual effects, other “special effects” coupled with the gazillion-watt amplification of social and main-street media, and the allure of money and power that unfortunately drives so much of human behavior.

Production values are a key component of PSYOP. And it works on both sides of the ideological aisle. Go ahead, click on msnbc.com I just did and this is what comes up, among other things:

Now, click on Beitbart and this is what you get:

I place both these sites in the category of what I call “PSYOPs for Money”. These are profit-seeking entities both using PSYOPS to stir their readers/audiences to frequent and patronize their sites so they can maximize advertising dollars.

But what about the PSYOPS that are NOT seeking profit but are intended to mislead even the most plugged in, most savvy investigators, not to mention the public at large. Remember that graphic we saw last November depicting data flowing around the world, supposedly proving that Hammer and Scorecard were used to steal the election?

This and the accompanying data was a fundamental element of Mike Lindell’s exposé “Absolute Proof”.

Turns out, the analysis was provided by a huckster with a checkered past named Dennis Montgomery. (For a full explanation of this whole affair, read the reporting by Gateway Pundit here and here.) Among other skullduggeries Montgomery swindled more than $100k out of Sheriff Joe Arpaio. We still haven’t found out who paid (if anyone) Montgomery to create this narrative, but some day maybe we will.

I am of the firm belief that both Mike Lindell and Joe Arpaio (and Sydney Powell, Michael Flynn, Tom McInerny and others) are among many ardent patriots who were and are trying to get to the bottom of what happened last November 6th. No sane, critical thinking, reasonably objective person believes that Basement/Addled Joe legitimately won 81 million votes.  But my point is that there is so much PSYOP produced information and misinformation out there that we still have not been able to prove without a doubt, or at least prove sufficiently such that it would stand up in court, all of the fraud and shenanigans we rationally believe stole the election for Biden.

And this is what the Left cleverly and evilly want – they can’t prove the election was legitimate so they’re aim is to delegitimize any honest inquiry concerning its illegitimacy by creating CHAOS. THAT, I submit, is exquisitely executed PSYOP.

Unfortunately, as a result of the Left’s success at creating chaos no justice will prevail concerning the 2020 elections for president and the two Georgia senate seats. Admonitions that “the Truth will prevail” represent wishful thinking. It may, but not likely in our lifetimes. Historians will someday, I pray, look back on this episode with conviction that the elections of 2020 were the most corrupt in U.S. history. But the chaos has been so effective that “truth” has gone the way of moral relativism. It doesn’t really exist at all in the minds of many!

So where does this leave us?

1.            The old maxim, “You can’t believe everything you read or see on television” still holds true.

2.            We must stop echoing what we “wish” to believe. Even if true, the general public, including persuadable independents and democrats with brains, don’t want to listen to chest-pounding and angry epitaphs from the Right. It just turns them off.

3.            The Left won’t listen to facts or reason, of course, but at this point that other old maxim, this one from Napolean is also wise: “Never interrupt the enemy when he is making a mistake.” I believe the Left has, characteristically, overplayed their hand and are starting to make complete fools of themselves. Let ’em do it.

4.            Finally, we MUST, on the other hand, selectively throw the BS flag on what the Left is spouting. Be careful not to expose just how pissed off you are about what they’re doing. Rather, let the Leftist you’re talking to think you’re either a Leftist yourself or independent and simply ask questions. Scratch your head and ask, for example, “What do you think the implications are of letting in all these illegals through the Southern Border?” Resist the temptation to rip your debate opponent’s head off, but firmly call out their nonsense. And when they devolve into calling you a racist (as they will inevitably do) just express concern and sympathy that your antagonist is suffering from the psychological disorder called Projection. It will both belittle him or her, although I hasten to point out that Leftists are impossible to shame because as collectivists their hive-minds deflect any sense of it, but pointing out their illness will make you feel better as you walk away. Alternatively, you can play the “I know you are but what am I?” children’s game. Either will probably enrage them and at that point, you can also feel good about having kept your own cool and having won the debate.

As an aside, I want to refer my readers to a couple of articles that I found helpful and instructive. The first, How to Fight the Left Effectively, discusses in so many words how PSYOPS have prepared the battlefield for the conflict we’re engaged in, and how not to get conned. The other, The Six Steps To Dealing With Liberal Friends And Family written back in 2008, ( a decidedly different time ) deals with how to walk softly when dealing with Leftist friends and family.

Finally, as I have been preaching since the Spring, don’t be lulled into thinking that the Truth Cavalry is coming or that people will be going to jail for the treason they’ve committed against the country, or that you and your buddies are going to “suit up” for a REAL insurrection. Rather, keep your powder dry, your heads in the game and on a swivel and continue to educate yourselves, using critical thinking to see through the PSYOPs. That, and GET INVOLVED locally. Don’t just stand there and gripe. DO SOMETHING to push the pendulum back the other way like those courageous parents are doing at school board meetings in Loudon County, or Tatiana Ibrahim in Carmel, NY (if you haven’t seen this, you MUST, it’s truly inspiring!)

While You Were Sleeping (Or Otherwise Engaged in Meaningful Things)

The chaos being sown by the Left is so pervasive that much of their evil activities escape our attention. After all, Traditionalists, i.e. normal people, are focused on their jobs, families, communities…you know, the stuff of real life. The Globalists, i.e. those with so much wealth and power that they have nothing better to do, look down upon us mere mortals and try to figure out how to rack up more points on their power/money scorecards in the never-ending competition among themselves. The rules of real life, after all, don’t apply to them.

So here’s one of those tidbits that few normal people pay attention to. How many of us are aware of the just completed “Cyber Polygon 2020” event? Huh? It was a simulation of a “digital pandemic” that took place on July 9th of this year. You can read all about it on the official website here. For a critical look at what was BEHIND this event, however, I refer you to the coverage of it here. And before you reject the latter because it was heralded by The Organic Prepper apocalypse-oriented website, I urge you to read it. Even if you discount what was written by 80%, you have to be concerned, no, alarmed, by what it reveals!

In short, a “Blue Team” of good guys fought a simulated battle against “Red Team” bad guys. 120 teams from 29 countries. (If that isn’t “global” I don’t know what IS!) The Blue Team sought to defend their systems from cyber attacks by the Red Team. Ostensibly, “The experts(*) addressed the latest trends and technological threats, shared their experience in creating cybersecurity ecosystems, talked about the transforming threat landscape…” However, they also “discussed the problem of fake news and how to discern misinformation on the Web” (italicized quotes are from the official website). As the Organic Prepper article points out, “Coincidentally, one of the end goals of Cyber Polygon was to determine how to do a more thorough job of silencing all criticism that goes against the mainstream narrative.”

(*) The “Experts” included Mikhail Mishustin, Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, and Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman, World Economic Forum, the very definition of Globalists!

But here’s the tidbit that really spooks me. According to videos published by the World Economic Forum (the grandaddy of all globalist cabals…the real-life equivalent of SCEPTRE for you James Bond fans, with Klaus Schwab in the role of Ernst Stavro Blofeld), “The only way to stop the exponential propagation of a COVID-like cyber threat is to fully disconnect the millions of vulnerable devices from one another and from the internet.” In short, this would involve the use an internet “kill switch.”

Guess what. They already exist and have been used, in Egypt in 2011 and just this past week, in Cuba! And guess who has the most powerful internet kill switch of all? Yup, the power-addicted, megalomaniacal tech oligarchs and their World Economic Forum buddies.

Think of the implications of a flip of the “off” switch. If you think the silencing and canceling being undertaken by Big Tech is bad now, and the brainwashing they’re engaged in can’t be made more virile, what if the ONLY source of information was a Leftist/Globalist/Collectivist news agency broadcasting propaganda 24 hours a day? (Picture “Big Brother’ from Orwell’s 1984)

To top it off, and here’s the kicker, the official website concludes:

“It was not clear until the end of the exercise who would take the first place. Different teams were leading at different stages, which means that none of them could fully utilise the techniques at their disposal.

The exercise allowed the participants to identify their strengths and weaknesses. We hope that the received information will help them create plans for developing the necessary competencies and improve their results in the future.”

Say what??? So not just the Blue Team but the Red Team benefited from the exercise by helping them “create plans for developing the necessary competencies” to improve their results!

The whole simulation was couched in lofty, benevolent terms. The reality is that cyber bad-actors such as ransomware hoodlums had a front row opportunity to survey the landscape/battlefield and devise new strategies for pursuing their evil deeds.

Ok, you can go back to sleep now. Everything’s just fine out there…

Time For A National ID

I know, I know…the intrusiveness, the “Big Brother”, Orwellian, fascist aspects of national identification have affronted freedom-loving Americans since the concept was first conceived of. However, we now have in America millions…I repeat…millions of non-citizens/illegal aliens living and working and taking advantage of us, and the number is growing by the day. Because we are a rich nation, the burden is spread out among us all, although I hasten to add it is far greater on some than others. How do we deal with this ever-increasing problem? Regrettably, and perhaps tragically, call it a “forensic audit”, call it an “honest headcount”, call it what you will, we are rapidly approaching the point where every individual within our borders must be able to PROVE, without ambiguity, that they are here legally. And equally important, voters must be able to prove they are citizens!

The Left, of course, wants to simply make everyone a citizen so they maximize their voting block and thus their power. It cannot be overstated how nefarious the Left’s intentions are. They care little about either the illegal aliens or the people on whose shoulders their burden falls. They care first and foremost about their power. If you have any doubts about this, you’re either completely brainwashed and gaslighted, blind, dumb or simply asleep and probably should stop reading right here.

We already have a national identification system. It’s called a U.S. Passport. It also comes in the form of a U.S. Passport Card issued by the Department of State and is the only federal document that certifies the citizenship of the holder aside of course naturalization papers, certificates of citizenship, etc. which are not meant to be carried on one’s person and which should be sitting in safe-deposit boxes or carefully secured! Even the Real ID feature of driver’s licenses, while more or less* authenticating the legal status of the holder, doesn’t unequivocally authenticate the citizenship of the holder. A non-citizen, foreign national, legal resident, for example, can obtain a Real ID star on his or her driver’s license.

* I say more or less because the documents that must be presented to obtain a driver’s license in some states are easily obtained or forged and do not unequivocally include proof of citizenship! While Real ID may go a long way to demonstrating LEGAL STATUS, it doesn’t mean one is qualified by citizenship to VOTE! (If someone can prove me wrong on this, please do so. Only then will I concede that Real ID substitutes for a U.S. Passport as proof of citizenship!). Certainly, merely presenting a driver’s license DOES NOT!

What the Left are trying to brainwash the entire country into believing, and, unfortunately, many on the Right keep parroting, is that voters need to present ID to vote. WRONG! Voters need to present PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP to vote, and it’s abundantly clear that voter rolls, signature verification and the mail-in ballot process don’t even begin to qualify as certifying the validity of the vote by a CITIZEN.

Back to the “forensic audit” and related initiatives to restore integrity to our vote and reliance on our founding principles… As draconian and Orwellian as it will appear, we’ve gotten to the point where the Left has so putrefied the LEGAL immigration system that we MUST find out who is here and once and for all deal with the sovereignty of our nation! This calls for a comprehensive, multifaceted plan: 1) an HONEST census not just asking who’s living there but legal status as well (and don’t tell me we can’t do that…the current administration is fine to have people show up at your door to cajole or browbeat you to get the vaccine if you haven’t had it!!!) ; 2) It’s not just a matter, however, of figuring out who is here illegally…it’s also having a humane plan for dealing with those who are demonstrably illegal residents/aliens whether through deportation, temporary worker status, or any of many other possible outcomes and 3) federal law that gives authority to law enforcement to demand proof of legal status any time, any place with CONSEQUENCES for those who can’t provide it, 4) elimination of electronic verification, collection and counting of voting ballots, elimination of harvesting and all the other tricks of illegal voting, restoration of voting exclusively in person on election day by paper ballot, signed and authenticated, certifiable mechanisms for permitting mail-in-voting exceptions (such as military overseas).

Of course the WALL must be completed. Of course border patrols and protection must be drastically beefed up. Of course law enforcement will have to not just be “refunded” but increased many-fold and meticulously trained in preparation for such a program. Of course the Left will have to be muzzled (.sic) and bound to prevent their inevitable histrionics, pushback, open violent revolt (REAL insurrection).

It will be ugly, messy, fraught with problems and to have any hope of succeeding while preserving what’s left of our constitutional principles, it must be done by legislative means, meaning once the Democrats are removed from power. Next year the Right must take back the House and Senate, and by the Right I also mean replacing any unprincipled, wishy washy professional politician Republicans who are “in it” as a career, or for the power, prestige, or pecuniary benefits rather than true allegiance to their oaths to defend the Constitution against enemies foreign and domestic. From 2022 through 2024 the Leftist agenda must be brought to a screeching halt. If the Right is able to obtain super-majorities in Congress, the process of planning and instituting National ID can go forth immediately. If not, then the planning can at least be undertaken in earnest so that it can be implemented in 2024 (2025) when the Right will once again hold both houses and the presidency.

We are losing our country to the Leftist/Globalist cabal and mob and we really have two choices: either continue to surrender our national identity, heritage, traditions, everything we hold dear to them, allowing our freedoms to increasingly be eroded and tyranny to take over, or “gird up our loins” and establish a different kind of “RESET” – one which purges our country of the evil being unleashed upon it and restores the principles and values that made it the most free and greatest nation the world has ever known.

The Left will of course whine that the institution of a MANDATORY national ID is the essence of totalitarianism, and to some extent it touches on tyrrany. But the alternative, as we are already seeing, is far worse. Once a national ID is instituted and the illegal residents of our country dealt with (and again, I emphasize that the consequences of being here illegally will range across a whole continuum from amnesty to deportation), the basic principles of our republic can be re-invigorated, “re-set” if you will, such that we can restore that which served to do the most good for more people on this earth than any other system in history.

Post-Truth

Irrespective of religion, one of the bedrocks of human morality and conduct is the rule, “Thou shalt not lie.” On the Decalogue it was worded “Thou shalt not bear false witness” but only the most ardent cynic would argue that the two phrases aren’t equivalent. Begs one to ask, “What is Truth?”. Regrettably, and sadly, today lying in all its forms is so common that Truth is completely obscured.

Truth is reality. Truth is fact. Truth is truth whether one believes it or not, whether all mankind believes it or not. It is eternal. It is immutable. There is no such thing as “my truth” as one political moron once suggested.

Truth doesn’t come in shades, different colors, isn’t nuanced, isn’t relative. It doesn’t have to be subjected to scrutiny or scientific testing. It is possible that there are truths undiscovered. Consider that as late as the 17th century China still believed the Earth was flat. Irrespective of their BELIEF that the Earth is flat, the TRUTH was and is that it is a sphere. So, the Truth of the Earth’s form wasn’t discovered by the Chinese for millennia but it was still Truth!

Lying, on the other hand, comes in many forms: outright falsehood, omission, misrepresentation, incomplete recounting, deception, misdirection, dissembling, extraction without context, “white”, and today’s favorite form – ‘spin’.

EVERYONE is guilty of lying. As with so many things, however, it is a question of degree. And, I would add, it’s a question of perspective.

I submit the Left utilize lying at a rate and in a quantity many times that of the Right. Consciously, with the argument that “the ends justify the means” continuously in mind, the Left lies almost non-stop. As a group, the class of vermin called professional politicians routinely lie, but the Left does so audaciously, consistently and arrogantly. They believe that if they shout and accuse, bludgeon and scream their words, THAT, in and of itself, creates Truth. They believe that if they say things often enough with catchy phraseology, it will become Truth.

And in the minds of the weak, it does.

Add to the propensity for falsehood the age-old psychological disorder called Projection, the amplification and megaphone aspect of the Internet, the sycophant and pandering broadcast and print media and the addictive and intoxicating dystopian impact of Social Media, and the Left wields far more influence than the Right. Like a steamroller, the Left crushes Truth and replaces it with “their” truth…a demented and sick, narcissistic, megalomaniacal and condescending view of the world that has consistently resulted in enslavement and attempts to suppress free will.

Using its finely honed skill at lying, its legions of mouthpieces all voicing the canon, the Left successfully destroyed the integrity of our election process. They’ve been working on it for decades. They almost got away with it in 2016, and they have provisionally gotten away with it in 2020. In terms of societal destruction, they’ve gone into hyper-drive, seeking to complete the “fundamental transformation” of our country and Western society.

It truly has become a world “post-truth”. Not just moral relativism abounds – EVERYTHING is now relative, even gender.

It is madness and while many of us sane people on the Right like to discount the lunacy as transient, to be rectified in 2022 and 2024, the damage being done to our culture and country, even if repaired, will leave scars and doubt for generations to come. It is the pattern of all great civilizations: from struggle for existence to relative peace to conflict of envy to moral decay to economic decline to war to extinction. In America today we’re for the most part watching the death of Good and the rise of Evil as if it were a sitcom…something that’s happening “out there” rather than in our own backyard.

But it IS happening, and part of the Post-Truth era is convincing the weak that the destruction they’re seeing with their own eyes, experiencing in their own lives, is either not really happening or is GOOD for them!

And all of it can be traced back, in large part, to the lies of the Left. From the lies of the 60’s: “Free” love, “Turn On, Tune Out, Drop Out”, “LSD will open your mind man…”, “All you need is love”, to the lies of today: “The crisis at the border is Trump and the Republicans’ fault,” “COVID-19 spontaneously jumped from bats in a wet market to humans”, “Job training (the unions’ welfare plan) equals infrastructure”, “Police are fascists,” etc., the use of high-production-value visuals, music, narrative and clever slogans constitute a tsunami of lies that have successfully brain-washed the weak-minded and elevated the demagogues.

I fear it’s going to take a cataclysmic shock for America to wake up and regain its ability to separate Truth from Lies. Until that time we will continue to live in a Post-Truth, Post-Reality world. Thankfully, mankind has something called “discernment”. If used, along with Free Will, it may yet save itself from a repeat of history.

Led By The Nose

I just had to react to a couple of events that clearly illustrate how inept, incompetent and weak the Biden administration is. They truly can’t see beyond two inches in front of their noses. They are reactive in all things. Two cases in point: Kamala Harris, faced with being completely rendered insignificant and worthless by Trump’s planned visit to the border, schedules a trip to EL PASO, 1,000 miles away from where the REAL problem is. She’s already blown it. She’s already insignificant and worthless. Second, faced with the rapidly increasing crime rates in major cities due to HIS and his party’s stupid policies, Biden reads a worthless speech on crime prevention from the White House that is so lame even dumb-downed Democrats roll their eyes as he tries to stay relevant. But, out in front of the cameras and his teleprompter he goes so that he can kowtow to the Leftist media and the sycophants trudging along behind him as he short-steps away form the podium. And, as usual, his spokesperson (Psaki) utterly fails in her attempt to blame Republicans for the worsening crime statistics.

These people are vile. They care about one thing and one thing only: POWER. As more and more people wake up to the fact that the Democrats are willing to sacrifice and are sacrificing the well-being of the nation, its people, its principles, its pre-eminence and exceptionalism so as to garner more of it (HR1 and S1 being the most obvious examples)…as Biden THREATENS the American people by saying that to take on the government the people are going to need F-15’s and perhaps a nuclear weapon or two (WHAT PRESIDENT SAYS THAT????) the more the greater the backlash will be until a REAL insurrection takes place!

Makes you wonder who is really pulling the strings behind the scenes. I’ll venture a guess that it’s one or two or maybe a handful of people with a nefarious/evil agenda in mind. I say that because Democrats by nature are lemmings/sheep who follow anyone who can tug at their heart strings, coerce them to follow, demagogue them to exhaustion, or simply promise them utopia (with a catchy pop song to accompany it all). Conservatives and Traditionalists, by way of contrast, are individualists by nature and they will not run off the edge of the cliff (like Democrats are wont to do) just because someone commands them to. Thus, it only takes one or two mouthpieces, memes, phrases, speeches, no matter how peurile, no matter how ridiciulous, to get Democrats to go along and repeat the words and mimic the behaviors of their central casted, in full makeup and wardrobe (e.g. aviator sunglasses) so-called “leaders”.

However, if enough nonsense and destruction by the Democrats is exposed…if enough idiocy and incompetence and stupidity is laid bare for EVERYONE to see (e.g. a poor old man falling 3x (3x!!!) up the stairs of Air Force One or a ridiculous, cackling waste of oxygen spilling verbal diarahhea from her mouth), some, not all, but some Democrats will go silent from embarassment and either vote conservatively/traditionally or stay home and note vote at all. Either way, we have a chance to take back our country from the grips of these lunatics.

What An Embarassment!

Having lived a good part of my life overseas, in the Far East as well as Europe, I was appalled by Biden’s performance this week at the G7, NATO and with Putin. Anyone who can look at this man and refer to him as the Leader of the Free World or the Commander in Chief or The Chief Executive of the United States needs extensive therapy, deprogramming or both! My foreign friends thought Trump was many things, including a thug, an inarticulate boob, a narcissist, but they respected him above all for having thrown the BS flag on the leftward creep in America, for unequivocally standing up for the country, and for doing what he promised to do. By contrast, they see Biden as an idiot puppet beholden to the shrill, idiotic voices of the Far Left, a doddering old fool without the slightest bone of conviction in his body for ANYTHING and responsive only to which way the wind is blowing.

Not that I was surprised. He did precisely what so many of us expected: spinelessly double-spoke his way through the meetings with a bulls-eye target on his forehead and a sign hanging around his neck saying “kick me”! Setting aside his cognitive deficit for a moment, which of course didn’t help matters, his inner politician and putrid, almost anti-American ideology spilled out in virtually every way, from body language to the prepared remarks on his 3×5 note cards to his unintelligible off-the-cuff interviews. He proved once again he embodies everything that is vile, corrupt, feckless, condescending, self-serving, narcissistic, opportunistic, pandering and cowardly in the Deep State.

Putin laughed all the way home to Moscow. He got much. We got NOTHING! Biden can’t be so stupid as to think that Putin cares about what his reputation is among Western leaders! This was a talking point obviously written by some of his snowflake and academic, sycophant underlings. To suggest, as Biden did, that the penalty Putin would face would be a diminution of stature was about as weak a threat and about as weak a position as I’ve ever seen an American official, much less the supposed President, put forth!

Add to the list of idiocies his handlers no doubt came up with, Biden gave Putin a list of 16 infrastructure sectors that should be “off limits” for cyber warfare! Are you kidding me? THAT position was so stupid it’s almost not even worth responding to. I was amused, however, that even the MSM talking heads echoed about ten minutes later what I immediately mumbled under my breath when I heard Biden say this, “Moron, shouldn’t cyber-warfare be off limits altogether, or shouldn’t you have said that if Putin doesn’t put a leash on his Russian hackers he might find HIS pipelines and/or grid shut down!” The MSM didn’t put it quite like that but at least they acknowledged the silliness if not outright stupidity of Biden’s gesture.

Wait one second while Biden puts on his aviators…”Mr. President, you sounded very tough out there!” gushes some MSM reporter. Please pass the barf bag I saved from my last airplane trip – I think I’ll use it now.

As I watched/listened to some of the commentary after this trip I found a lot wanting. Commentators continue to walk on eggshells because of Biden’s obvious cognition problem – they are treating him more and more like a victim.

The more I think about his state and the state of affairs of our nation, however, the more I’m hopeful he’ll hang in there at least until after the election next year. It is imperative that we be able to defeat or at least stall his harmful and masochistic agenda. As I noted before and right after the election…the amount of damage he and the Leftist virus (.sic) can do in a couple of years is frightening, and that damage is occurring already. I predict his dementia will cause his virulent frustration and temper to emerge more and more frequently thus exposing the evil that he and his puppet masters are perpetrating. This will ensure victory for The Sane in November 2022. Were the 25th Amendment to be invoked too soon, the installation of a Cackler-in-Chief might prompt the weak-minded sheep to “give her a chance to work with her own kind” and threaten the blow-out victory the Right should have next year.

These are trying times. We are in a cold war such as we have never seen before. Except it’s only cold on one side. On the Left, cities are burning and kinetic war-like destruction is already occurring. Crime is skyrocketing, the multi-headed evil hydra is writhing and seeking to destroy all that is good about our nation. For the moment, our side is remaining cold/cool. How much more of this barely restrained slide down the slippery slope can we or will we take?

Artificial Life

Tech has created a situation where there is so much INPUT coming at us so quickly it is impossible to grasp what’s really going on. Moreover, its ability to shape, color and produce information has put the power in programmers’ hands of defining what is real and what isn’t. Even the old maxim, “are you going to believe what someone is telling you or are you going to believe your own eyes and ears” is challengeable because both sound and video can be doctored or created out of thin air. In short, CHAOS is the only word to describe what is happening around us. There are moments when we think we’ve got a handle on our lives but it’s an illusion. There is no way that an individual can assimilate and process all the information: good, bad, relevant or not…that’s constantly coming at us. So, unfortunately, we conduct our lives based on an artificial reality consisting, often, of what we’ve heard or seen most recently or what has dominated the Input stream and we have abrogated the course of our civilization to those who control the firehose of so-called information sprayed at us.

Remember that cute film “Short Circuit” in which a friendly robot (“Number 5”) is constantly running around seeking “Input”. At some point he’s gathered and assimilated sufficient Input that he’s become human. (“Number 5 is ALIVE”!!)

Because our human capacity, unlike Number 5, is limited, we have taken to relying on the Internet, that “big database in the sky” to serve as a sort of mental external disk drive, an extension of our Input storage ability. Evidence of this is in plain sight…”Google” is now a verb*. I too look up things that I should know and keep in my head but instead I rely on the “big database in the sky” to provide me with almost instant answers to any question I might have. Never mind that the information may be faulty or misleading. If it LOOKS good, or SOUNDS good, or SEEMS to come from an AUTHORITATIVE SOURCE, I’m likely to accept it and/or use it to draw a conclusion. (Sound the low register buzzer….)

* I don’t use Google as a search engine anymore. Rather, I use Duck Duck Go, but that hasn’t been turned into a verb yet!

I used to think that we could go back to a simpler life: simpler communication, more black and white and less gray, a better understanding of what’s important in life and what’s secondary, tertiary, etc. It ain’t gonna happen. The influence of tech on every facet of our being is here to stay. We’re so overwhelmed with Input we hardly even have the capacity anymore to turn it off, to choose a life course that’s, frankly, more human than android.

So what do we do? How do we go forth in this world of chaos and live traditional lives when Tech is making that almost impossible? We can’t all escape to the country, disconnect from the Cloud and the Grid and become self-sufficient.

We CAN, however, put the brakes on Tech and recapture our humanity while availing ourselves of some of the Good that tech provides.

How do we do that?

We start by throwing out…yes, THROWING OUT things like iWatches and FitBits! We STOP using the boob tube to keep us company while we make dinner or putter around the house. We READ again, books that are classic, that uplift, that help us cope with one another and the world around us in HUMAN ways, not digitally manipulated ones.

If all this sounds like gobbledygook that’s because the impact of CHAOS on our lives prevents us from seeing the forest for the trees (to use a traditional expression)!

What I’m suggesting is that we pause, take a breath, “Just Say NO” to Input, and ask ourselves what’s REALLY important and meaningful in our lives. Is it the latest installment of whatever we’re binge-watching on Netflix or finding a means and place to hang the scribbled “picture” that our child or grandchild has given us? Questions like these are endless, and we hardly ever ask them in this either/or fashion. We should!

And for the sake of our families, our communities, our nation, our humanity, we must “Just Say No” to this Leftist idiocy. Like the brave moms speaking out at school board meetings against Critical Race Theory and masks, wear the ostracization of the sheep like a badge of honor. Regrettably, we are already beginning to learn who our real friends are and some who have joined the sheep will no longer be. Be cordial, be sympathetic to those feeble-minded or brainwashed souls who are unwittingly buying into the “Great Reset” or just following the other lemmings to their destruction. Stand firm for the values we know to be those of winners and benevolent to society as a whole. And filter, filter, filter the onslaught of Input coming at you!

On Kamala Harris

Steve Feinstein via American Thinker June 10, 2021 so articulately characterized Kamala Harris that I just had to extract from his article. Thank you Steve. Extremely well put.

“With her constant situationally inappropriate hyenalike cackling, her astonishingly unserious, wild proclamations about matters of critical national import (such as her preposterous assertion that “climate change” is a root cause of illegal immigration), and her bizarre narcissistic need for self-promotion as evidenced by her passing out “Kamala Harris” cookies to reporters, it is clear that Harris is nothing more than a hastily cobbled together collection of progressive checked boxes: Person of Color? Check. Female? Check. Victim of discrimination? Check. Radical ideology? Check.

Yet these boxes remain distressingly unchecked:

  • Detailed understanding of economics and taxation
  • Job creator
  • Successful manager in the “take no prisoners” private sector
  • Scientific/technical expertise
  • Awareness of American and world history.
  • Knowledge of military strategy, hardware and weaponry

To be fair, not all great presidents check every single box. But every passable president checks at least a few of them. Harris comes up totally empty.

Exactly when the Democrats will decide to discard Biden like three-day-old bread remains to be seen. Perhaps it will be after the Democrats have passed all the extreme legislation and executive orders they feel they can get away with. That would make some sense: get as many radical policies in place as possible, have them fall on Biden, then get rid of Biden in order to distance and inoculate Harris from Republican attack for those policies in 2024.”
