The Morning Report - 1/21/21 [J.J. Sefton]

Good morning, kids. Thursday and I'm numb. I really don't know that I have the koy'ech to do this today, and when I realize I've got another 1,460 days after today I want to go stick my head in an oven. Then again, considering the dreck I'm wading through from yesterday, I'm sure there are quite a few Biden boosters eager to lay their "heeling" hands on my neck and give me a Cass Sunstein patented nudge.

What those who actually decided to torture themselves saw in DC yesterday was Dave "Iowahawk" Burge's saying writ large:

1. Identify a respected institution.
2. Kill it.
3. Gut it.
4. Wear its carcass as a skin suit, while demanding respect.

If that doesn't encapsulate what the Democrat/Enemy has done to this country since time immemorial, and most assuredly yesterday, I don't know what does. Huey Long (ironically a Democrat, and perhaps the Bernie Sanders of his day) once said that fascism would come to this country, but it would appear in another guise. It would come wrapped in the flag claiming to be a savior of democracy. Not that I'm a fan of Long but how right he was.

Katie Hopkins witnessed yesterday firsthand:

It feels numb here, like watching surgery on your own hand when you are anesthetized against the pain, but can still see the knife cutting flesh and watch your own blood flow. That's exactly what it is like in D.C. Without people, there is no emotion. And without emotion, no one can feel anything. And just like surgery, it feels unreal.
It is emotion that makes these events matter. And there is none to be had here. This is a sterilized inauguration in a city sanitized by a garrison of troops. All you can feel is numb.
Biden stepped up to the podium, on an empty stand, addressing a mall void of life and spoke of his hopes for unity:
This is our moment of crises and challenge. And unity is the only path forward... Let's start afresh. Let's start to listen to one another, see one another, hear one another.
I look around at all the facemasks and muted mouths. And feel my eyes roll in their sockets.
We must reject a culture in which facts are manipulated and manufactured.
I remember those suitcases of ballots being hauled out from under tables in Pennsylvania, and the statistically improbably vote dumps in the swing states, and wonder how this old man is not choking on his words.
America has to be better than this. Just look around. Here we stand in the shadow of the capitol dome. We endured. We prevailed.
I look around just as he asks us to do, and I see how barren it all is. This man is all but alone with his lies. Nothing has prevailed here, not joy, not emotion, and certainly not the will of the American people.

Daniel Greenfield also nails it:

There were no crowds, just soldiers. After the military and police contingent, the second largest group there for the inauguration weren't Biden's civilian supporters, but his propagandists. With few people, the media had to work twice as hard to manufacture the illusion that this was a popular leader taking office instead of a usurper imposed by Amazon, Google, Facebook, and the rest of the political, cultural, and economic oligarchy which owns the media on America.
CNN, a subsidiary of AT&T, had already gushed about, "Joe Biden's arms embracing America". MSNBC, a subsidiary of Comcast, compared Biden to God. "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." The only wounds being bound up were those of the ruling class which had temporarily lost electoral power to an army of flyover country workers and peasants, only to reclaim it with sedition, wiretapping, abuse of power, billions of dollars, and soldiers in the street...
...Biden isn't a charismatic leader. He isn't moving the cause forward. He's a placeholder for a ruling class that wants homes in Dupont Circle that it buys by selling out America to China, by ruining our economy with environmental consulting gigs and racial contract quotas, and for all the manifold ways which the swamp is coming back as Biden's wetlands restoration project.
"Hail to the Thief" is as much their anthem as it is Biden's. They fought to keep hold of D.C., the center of their power base not because they care about its history or that of this country, but because it's where they network, collaborate, and do their dirty little deals at our expense.
The troops in the street are their warning to the rest of the country about who is really in charge.

At the risk of going off on a tangent, I left the following as a comment on one of the articles I sourced for this morning. That said, it is nevertheless appropriate given some of the completely blind attitudes of some pundits as to how our world has been turned upside down since (s)Election Day: 'We are not voting our way out of this ever again. But the root of the problem was, is and always will be the schools. Yes, the election was stolen and America was overthrown for sure at the ballot box. But that could never have happened had the previous two to three generations of our citizenry not had their minds poisoned from K through post-grad. Anything even remotely socialist in terms of politicians would've been a joke, as it was in 1980 when Gus Hall and Angela Davis ran on the Communist Party line.

But only 29 years later, a man who voted for them became the director of the CIA while his boss, whose father/father-figure was a Stalinist enemy, became President. And here we are 12 years later, in a nightmare that will make 09-16 look like a walk in the park.

Crackpots like Ibram X. Kendi are not outliers; they are mainstream not only in failed urban shit-holes, but in schools all across the country. Unless and until we purge every classroom and lecture hall of his acolytes - who I fear are the majority in academia - we do not stand a snowball's chance in hell. And with virtually every other aspect of our society and government controlled by, beholden to or otherwise cheering on the tyranny, the task may very well be impossible at this point.'

And yet, we are still here. Millions and millions of us. I don't have to invite the Enemy to do their worst; you can bet your life that that is exactly what they are going to do. It will be a testament to our character how we respond.

11 In the coming weeks or months, Biden's gross inadequacies for the presidency will become painfully apparent. We must hold accountable those people who foisted this perverted and demented old man on the American public. Zuckerberg, Google, Bezos, the Democrat party, CNN (AT&T), NBC (Comcast), ABC (Disney). And when Harris takes over and her complete bizarreness is on full display, we must hold them accountable again. Who knows how many people actually voted for Biden, but those who cast honest votes for were fed lies about Trump for five years, while Biden's physical and mental fitness were never addressed, and his decades' long corruption were covered up or ignored.

They had been amping up rumors of an armed right-wing militia attack, something that would have Biden look heroi s and triumphant against thos hick haters.

As they say, the opposite of love is not hate, it is indifference. Biden hollow inauguration day was indifference to the fake celebration, indifference to the assembled celebrities we were meant to see as validating his star power and importance. We don;t have to play along with the press, the influencers, who try to tell us which words have gravity, which people deserve our respect, attention, and affection.

I don't think it matters. Purge them, and more will fill the void. Where "we" screwed up, I'm pretty sure, is not fielding our own propaganda arm to counter theirs. Until "we" do that - I'm pretty sure a loss is inevitable. And I just don't know if the modern right has it in them to play that game.

The quotes around "we" are in the interest of open disclosure. I don't know what qualifies as conservative anymore. Pretty sure I don't make the team photo, though.

They censored the President of the United States. They wouldn't cover speeches, they wouldn't report stories, and they didn't cut into their soap operas when historic peace deals were being signed in the Middle East (that I assume Biden pulled us out of yesterday). They didn't cover Biden's laptop, sexual abuse, Hunter's Russia/Chinese connections, etc, and the Republicans in the House and Senate changed their mind about their opposition as soon as that car exploded in Georgia.

A nobody on Twitter is not going to hold them accountable anywhere outside their home, church, or county*. They're not going to let him.

Overcoming the billions of dollars it can generate is an herculean task. So is forming a new party. And the nature of our political landscape and culture means soon enough, even that party will be corrupted.

to be 105-107 F and has been know drop his pleasant demeanor if outside
that range and admonish those responsible. Tension fills the room as he
enters the tub. One aid offers assistance but Biden, always fiercely independent, refuses. He picks rubber ducky and as settles into the
water a smile come to his wisened face and he breaks into his hearty
laugh. A sigh of relief goes come from the aides , knowing they have

114 My now-former church apparently continued withdrawing money from my bank despite my not sending in a renewal card, so I sent the email I had decided not to send. I told my pastor I felt the church had abrogated its temporal and spiritual duties by complying with unconstitutional and irreligious orders not to gather for worship, and that based on the message I got from church leadership - which, I noted in the email, was the same messaging I got from earthly powers (that's the phrase I used. He's smart, he'll know exactly what I mean) - I knew I was alone in my opinion, so I no longer feel welcome there.

I don't know if I did the right thing. I feel even more alone against the darkness than I already did. I suppose it's just that I've acknowledged what I already knew.

I'm sorry. That sounds painful. Would the pastor be aware of their continuing to withdraw money even if you had not sent in a renewal card?. That sounds like something the treasurer would be involved with. Did the church vote on closure or that was the decision of the pastor by the vote the Parish Council or Administrative Board.

I realize that it's very hard to leave a church after being there for a while, but please consider finding another church. If it's been closed you wouldn't know if other people felt the same way-and granted I'm biased, but I think people of faith need to be in a supportive OPEN church at this time

He covered up and hid evidence and did absolutely nothing at all. Right from the start, the people Trump trusted on the legal side betrayed him.

That to me was his only failing, and it was kind of a big one. That said, when your own alleged party tries sabotaging you when they control Congress, then the treason was baked in the cake. And yet look at what he did all by himself.

167 If it consoles anyone with a bit of justice, any Catholic would have to assume that Joe Biden is very, very busy consigning himself to hell.

First, supporting abortion by word or deed is a mortal sin. Second, you cannot receive the Eucharist with the stain of a mortal sin on your soul. Now for all I know, Biden goes to confession every week and tells the priest he supported abortion and has no intention of ever doing so again and will try very hard not to, and Biden has found a big enough ninny of a priest who will absolve him. But I have never met such a priest, and I don't believe they exist.

This means that Biden receives the Eucharist with the stain of a mortal sin on his soul. This is also a mortal sin, and when you die with mortal sins on your soul, you do not go to purgatory, you do not go to heaven, you do not pass Go and collect your $200. As Catholics (and maybe others too) say, the gates of hell lock from the inside.

And yes, it's quite possible I'm violating Matthew 7:1. But as long as Biden is working diligently to promote grave evil, what else are we to think?

171 How does a newly elected President go scorched earth on both parties in Congress? When he has to get all of his appointees approved through them? Haw does a newly elected President remove the speaker of the House? Both of these questions are in reference to statements posted above because blaming Trump for both of these problems shows the absolute lack of understanding how government works which is one of the first things Ryan said about Trump.

Trump didn't have enough of the popular vote to go scorched earth, especially when impeachment was a major topic on Day 1.

Welcome to Day One of post-Republic America. Nothing screams "Consent Of The Governed" quite like giving a vapid, nothing-burger of a "speech" in front of an empty town from behind barbed-wire and fences, eh? Just a hint of what's in store for us, bothers and sisters. Be well and be safe.

I had a day off two weeks ago and went to a local church. The music was good. The sermon was effective and I got spiritually nurtured and it was a heck of lot better than zooming would be.

It's darkly amusing to note how much the Left hates fundamentalist Christians (of which there really aren't that many), because Leftists are in fact the worst, most hard core fundies of all. Everything they believe they take purely on faith, and any challenge to their dogma is heresy. It truly is a dark religion, and their only "god" is themselves.

Exactly. People who haven't worked in large corporations don't realize that they are basically bureaucracies. The guy at the top isn't Steve Jobs in most cases; he's a slick politician. And the bigger the corporation, the slicker he has to be. All corporate politicans are socialists in the sense that they are all about feathering their nests. And the people they draw to them are birds of a same feather.

It's occurred to me recently that there is really no difference at all between our major corporations and the Narco organizations of Latin America. Both are out to gain as much power and wealth as possible by any means possible. In fact our own corps now may be worse - the narcos only want to get rich, but our corps now want the souls of all of their captive clients.

259 Well, the Episcopal Church where a friend of mine goes on Sunday (He's a retired pastor but not Episcopal) to have communion before coming to our church has some rule that the Rector can be in the building. They can be open because it's a huge building, but you have to have reservations. The rector preaches and officiates at communion, but if the Deacon is scheduled to preach they cannot actually come in the building. They have to broadcast their message. Does this make any sense? It's lunacy. It also sets up a hierarchy. The rector can be there, but the lowly Deacom cannot go in the building. I guess the Deacon has more "cooties" than the Rector. My friend things this is asinine and he tells the Rector so. He's a friend of the Deacon which is why he goes.

293 The schools are surely a major problem, JJ. I think they are also in symbiosis with the press and entertainment media. It makes for a nice commie pincer. You get exposed to formal claptrap in schools and then come home. If your parents are doing their jobs, they will ask you how things went and what you learned and review your homework. They'll see the claptrap and will likely try to correct it. You may listen depending on your disposition.

Then you'll watch some after dinner TV and have a much more subtle form of the same claptrap leak in, reinforcing what you learned.

And it isn't even a conspiracy (outside of education, where the takeover was planned). No one could reasonably come up with such a multi-faceted scheme. It is simply what happens when everyone in the industry (or multiple industries, in this case) is ideologically aligned. There needn't be a grand plan, there need only be a critical mass of alignment. The rest takes care of itself.

307 242 Like on cue, WHO now says that the Covid tests have too many positives and suggests a retest if a positive test does not match the lack of symptoms. Looks like the number of reported Covid cases is going to come down.
"Where test results do not correspond with the clinical presentation, a new specimen should be taken and retested using the same or different NAT technology. ... WHO reminds IVD users that disease prevalence alters the predictive value of test results; as disease prevalence decreases, the risk of false positive increases"

I took two shopping excursions with my brother here in occupied CO over the course of the week. Maskless, we found that the supermarket staff at the big national chain (Safeway) were helpful and courteous until we got to checkout. There, the clerk very shrilly told us we had to mask up to check out. I suspect they were losing inventory when people abandoned their carts willy-nilly in the store. If people abandon at checkout, it makes restocking easier. This would seem to go against your assessment.

On the other hand, excursion two to the Oriental market, went another direction. Same when in the store, but at the check stand the clerk got spooked by the unmasked, walked away, and got her supervisor to come to check us out. That points to your assessment.

So yeah, I dunno. They've done a number, though, that's for sure.

The cases he filed on fraud and material violations of the Constitution were substantive. They were simply never given a hearing. It's the state legislatures who fell down in their responsibilities, that much is clear.

Furthermore, it doesn't look like even the constitutional issues will be addressed. SCOTUS left the Pennsylvania case off their order list again earlier this week.

The two phenomena are distinct, I think. One side is the "there's a grand plan, it's all on purpose" (the Q side) and the other side is, "there's so much evidence writ large of what they did that people are going to go down for this and justice will be served" (the hopium side). These are not the same, though they can intersect.

The latter, which was more common, is rooted not in grand designs and conspiracies but in a faith in American justice. Those subscribing to the hopium track likely couldn't believe that the Republic they cherished and loved was dead, and that law and justice no longer exist. To a true classical patriot, that is an irreconcilable position. Folks like our much (and I think unfairly) maligned JackStraw are, I think, in this position. They believed in American Justice and couldn't accept that it is dead.

376 RE: @320.
Both you and Ian confuse me on this issue. I tried to persuade JS in 2017 of how important it was to have rapid prosecution of individuals for using government spy agencies for political fights. I could not persuade him, because he believes institutional redemption (of FBI/DOJ etc) demands full investigations and following their stipulated rules for prosecutions. Having failed to persuade him, I realized then that a significant part (maybe the larger part) of "our side" still believes in the integrity of our institutions. I do not. So, to me, at this late stage arguing with each other on these points doesn't really serve a goal. Lots of good people still think the FBI et al can somehow be redeemed. But that doesn't make them enemies, and we should focus on the next fight (where we might need them and by which time they might have come around) and not the last one.

I think it's the last one. I suspect that when Trump said that, it was true. It was obvious to anyone who had been paying attention. A lot of people - citizen investigators, not the DoJ/FBI - did a lot of heavy lifting and investigated that case in public (just like what happened with the election). The evidence was out there and known. Trump knew, too, and probably knew a bit more.

But he hit the brick wall of the deep state. The only way to overcome that would have been a purge and dismantlement of large tracts of the government, more than possibly requiring a fair amount of violence. I think he wouldn't play those cards.

There was a lot of disinformation and division being peddled by foreign intelligence agencies that people also bought into. Most people never determined the source of the information they were repeating and whether it was credible. It was then repeated like it was Gospel and fact, when it was none of those things. This is what happens when people's passions are inflamed and they are not thinking logically or intellectually. These are classic techniques in information ops that are used precisely for the reasons you are seeing right now.

I have also noticed with increasing frequency that Twitter will often not render a tweet and give you the "this is not available to you" message when you open a direct link to a tweet in a background tab (sometimes otherwise, too, though rarely). When that happens, I just refresh the page (F5 or CTRL+R or the refresh button) and it usually comes up on attempt #2.

429 As Trump boarded Air Force One for his last presidential flight to Florida, many QAnon adherents - some of whose believers had this month stormed the Capitol in a siege that left at least two QAnon devotees dead and others in jail - began to wonder whether they'd been duped all along.

When one QAnon channel on the chat app Telegram posted a new theory that suggested Biden himself was "part of the plan," a number of followers shifted into open rebellion: "This will never happen." "Just stfu already!" "It's over. It is sadly, sadly over." "What a fraud!"

"It is impossible to thaw tensions with North Korea without buying them off and creating more problems down the road." Jury's out, but it looks like Trump did it.

Could not disagree more. The circular firing squad is necessary. For far, far too long - we have pretended that we are one big happy family on the right, unified in political thought. That is simply not the case. We have Statists who believe in the primacy of the state over the citizen - as long as that state leans to the right. We have true believed in small government - they are not compatible with the Statists. We have GOP apologists, and those who will never support that party again. We have those who still believe i working within the system, and those who want to burn it down.

We are long, long overdue for a good circular firing squad. Because as things stand, our "big tent" can't accomplish a damn thing. How could we ? The only thing we agree upon is a dislike of the left.

And i think Trump supporters- and probably the President himself- never dismissed it because it lent credence to the 4D Chess trope that Trump was a mastermind and was playing the WA establishment like a harp from hell.
And we now know how all of that turned out. there wasn't 4D chess strategy because the game was rigged from the beginning. Trump already started in check and was in defense the entire time.
No. Q was a masterpiece of military psyop. and the stupid "Q Clearance" bullshit was the icing on the cake. Oh- a...Q clearance! He must KNOW things. The soi boi writer figured out there are different security levels besides top secret and went with it- because Q sounds so mysterious!

Posted by: Pierre at January 21, 2021 09:29 AM (EjQ00)

Most successful counter-revolutions or revolutions are big tents composed of people who simply dislike the current regime. This does mean the coalition will disintegrate after success without a unifying leader but doesn't mean they won't succeed.

Equities are but one measure of economic health. There are many others and the stock market doesn't directly correlate to many of them. One important factor is earnings growth, and that is going to take a hit in certain sectors. They are betting tech stocks will keep the run up, but in my opinion many of them are way overvalued. The value they actually bring, and whether that is tangible over the long run is a big question. Jobs are going to take a hit, as are certain industries like energy. When you look at out economic growth over the last few years, hurting that sector will not be a good thing for us. They have also crushed the small business growth engine with this COVID bullshit. Democrats tax and regulation policies will further crush them. Long term, not good.

I get where you are coming from. My response would be this - diversity is not always strength, especially when the same flawed messages from the same flawed messengers are continually followed. Not all opinions are equally valid - and opinions that are demonstrated to be false are not worthy of respect.

The "trust the plan" and "support the GOP" crowd has got quite a bit of play here over the last ten years. I'd suggest its time to pick new voices to listen to. If that requires a circular firing squad - and I think it does - so be it.

Reforrming academia (or really, any failed institution) is impossible, at least for the foreseeable future. The only viable solution is to create new institutions. This is the silver lining of the digital age, which is destroying the old institutions - it makes creating new ones relatively easy. You don't need a big physical campus anymore. You can do most education online. And when the new institutions start producing better graduates than the poor slobs enduring the old ones, people will notice.
