Quiet advances against U.S. voter fraud are poised to overwhelm any fraud in the 2022 election...

 ... or so one fervently prays. And some outcome scenarios.

Everyone,

The MainStream Media has forced our attention on a host of crazy things recently, the Covid scam specifically, but much more besides, all those things that are far, far from the 2020 election voter fraud. Yet a great many average everyday Joe and Jane Americans have not forgotten; they've been ferreting out the truth regarding 2020 and "Phantom Voters". This article at American Thinker by Jay Valentine explains how the phantom voting occurred and how completely nation-wide extensive it was. It is a fascinating article that I highly recommend. This Jay Valentine led the team that built the eBay fraud detection and the technology for the TSA No-Fly List. Here's a short excerpt:

In one Midwestern state, voter rolls costing tens of thousands of dollars were bought by a billionaire leftist every month for over a year.  Why would someone buy a list that doesn't change much?

Voter lists show people who move.  They show people who never or seldom vote. 

The white hat canvassing team built a query for one state: "voters who voted in 2020 who never voted before."  Guess what!  265,000.

In the same state, thousands of people came forward with stories that when they showed up to vote, they were told someone had voted for them.  Get the picture?

In a southwestern state, in its second-largest city, there was a 21-day daily tabulation of cast ballots.  Once a ballot is cast, it should not be changed.  Not here.

When the millions of cast votes across over 21 snapshots were compared, thousands of ballots had been altered.  Some were minor alterations, like a slight name change.  Others were more interesting — like when someone voted in person, but his vote was later changed by an absentee ballot.

It gets better.

Those FOIA requests are mining gold.

AnP again:

Those interested in these incredible revelations I encourage to read the article. My Comments, FWTW, are:

1. Democrats have been stealing elections for generations, and my friend Mike has reported here a number of classic stories told about this, like the one of Lyndon Johnson, when still a representative, and Sam Rayburn, then actual Speaker of the House of Representatives, in a Texas graveyard registering the dead to vote.
2. But this time, in the 2020 election, the Democrats went too far – so far that if you remotely know how U.S. elections work, what "momentum" is, what crowd turnout means, how certain counties always vote for the winner, what incumbents getting X to Y vote percentages against challenger votes in certain regions signify, all that, you know that this election was stolen.
3. If you were watching election returns and saw the reported numbers starting to change in ridiculous fashion, you know it was stolen. Etc., etc.
4. The point is, EVERYONE outside of the idiot thumbsuckers that the U.S. "Educational system" has produced (north of 30 percent of the population) i.e. everyone who can screw in a light bulb, knows the truth, and now that absolute idiot, that Zombie Zhou Biden China boot-licker, who doesn't even know where he is more than half of the time, has produced – technically, the not so shadowy Obama Administration peeps who manage the fool AND the Deep State combined Intelligence apparatus that actually runs the U.S. – has put the American citizens in such dire straights that any half-way serious election reforms or any election that will be monitored by the folks Mr Valentine is talking about – that the Democrats are going to be swept from power on a scale never seen before in U.S. history.
   
5. The Democrat party is in any event destroyed. It is now the true U.S. Communist Party. The Republican Party is in the throws of splitting into the MAGA (Trump) Repubs and the Center-Left "Officials", the "GOPe", as it is called. (Grand Old Party Establishment) The split can only be fully actualized after a smashing Repub victory and the GOPe then pulls out all the stops to betray that victory. That would be the final nail because people are so angry they won't tolerate it.
   

Ergo, either one of two things happens:

One:

• The "Deep State" and their Commie front men seize the U.S. government completely in a full coup d'état before or right after the 2022 election to prevent a Republican clean sweep scenario, as they collectively, if I may so phrases it, "take the mask off".
• If they do, it'll be national suicide. The 50 percent of the people who actually make the national wealth and who make the technology run will go on strike or flee underground as the traditional "social contract" between the self-governing self-managing self-helping  American people and their elected government is "cancelled." Certainly food delivery to the Democrat-controlled urban areas will stop and the economy will collapse. The brutal chaos currently underway in the "sacking of cities" by Antifa and BLM thugs would have been completely unimaginable just a couple of years ago, before George Floyd, and just plain mobs rampaging everywhere 'urban' will become the norm, with the U.S. descending into a Mad Max dystopia. (Raging inner-city mobs raging in the countryside will be shot down en masse. Small-town/rural people: white, black, brown, whatever, will shoot them. Without hesitation. Forced back into cities, the cities will become like the fictional New York in the movie Escape from New York – although they're kinda like that now.)

Option Two:

• The Deep State casts the lots and decide to allow the 2022 elections to occur, and then they go into a 'War of Position', trench-war fighting the new Congress and state governments in a thousand small holding actions, on every front, continually, ever trying to sabotage Republican actions until they can see how the 2024 election is shaping up. This is, of course, exactly what they did to Trump for four years, and Trump foolishly allowed them to get away with it. Trump definitely needed Steve Bannon on his team during those years, but he had let "them" fire Bannon, etc., early on. (And Trump played right into their hands regarding Covid. Bad, bad, very bad indeed, Mr. Trump.)*
  
• But this would be just a holding action. The Deep State cannot allow itself to be abrogated. The NIA, the FBI, the CIA, ATF, DIA, etc., simply cannot let go of power. They killed the two Kennedy brothers in the '60s, they removed Nixon, they installed Carter and tried to assassinate Reagan, eventually tying him up in Iran-Contra. They "Iran-Contraed" Trump for his whole four years! (With Obama's help, they removed, or at least aided in the removal, of Pope Benedict XVI and the installation of that oaf Bregoglio – much like they did with Biden – something many begged Trump to reveal the truth on, but that was another Trump failure.)**
  
• Bottom line: Thugs in power have to be forcibly removed, and these clowns certainly cannot long sustain serious Congressional investigations that a massive change in Congress would entail. That January 6th stage-managed Deep State operation was planned and created by them. The revelation of the truth of that alone would result in calls for their dissolution. A strong Conservative leader might well emerge (DeSantis?) who would actually shut them down and repeal the Patriot Act. 
  
• Yet, as noted, if the Deep State doesn't strike next year, it just puts off the inevitable overthrow of the Federal Government. That, at least, has to happen. It either seizes power and ignites a Dark Age or it will be damned and dismembered. Those are the only two options for it.

Finally: China and Russia

1. Russia seems poised to invade the Ukraine, probably not long into the New Year of 2022. A Winter War. Talk about a War of Maneuver! How much of the Ukraine they seize will shape the response of the Europeans, who, without the backing of the U.S., will let the Russians take what they want. Germany is stuck on the teat of Russian oil, in any event. But the Russians want the Ukraine: for as the old saying goes, Russia with Ukraine is the U.S.; Russia without the Ukraine is Canada.
   
2. China: China is such a mess. It has been poised to invade Taiwan since Trump's removal, and as it had its spies in the U.S., especially that defecant General Milley, such an invasion might have worked but also would have given Trump the excuse to clean the Defense Department out. Root and branch. (Along with the Deep State, too, because while that is effective at thwarting American self-government, it is useless at what it is supposed to do: thwart enemy states and protect U.S. national interests.) Also, China's top leadership are in a seemingly endless labyrinthine palace coup knife fight, as Xi tries to retain control and drag his essentially Third-World state into a war that will likely follow the pattern of what happened to Japan 1937-1945, and myriads of factions who loathe him keep trying remove him. Just a mess. And from what I understand, not only are these brutal back-stabbing bureaucrats incompetent, being promoted due to faction ties, but all of them spend their days viewing internet porn. I'd hate to be their janitors, having to clean up their offices! Despite their vast army, their quickly building navy, their missiles and the bio-weapons, grotesque incompetence and obscene immorality do not great leadership make. (Right, Zhou Biden?)

Welcome to 2022 and the Mad Max future!

An Préachán

* After all he had been through, why did Trump trust "Deep Staters" as deep as Anthony Fauci? Faced with constant evidence of Deep State treachery, he seems to have trusted Fauci and his peeps for quite a while. He had NO reason to. Even a cursory review of who Fauci was and his shady past would have revealed Fauci's insanity involving AIDS and HIV. A deeper investigation would have revealed what we now know: Fauci's gain of function research with his U.S. connections and the Chinese. That's simply treason, especially considering China's long-proclaimed bio-warfare intentions.

** For some, this might be one conspiracy theory too far, but all I can say is, after ALL we've been through since Eisenhower gave his last speech warning of the "Military-Industrial Complex", how can anyone honestly say that there's simply nothing the Deep State won't do, or try? I thought the icing on the cake was their attacks on Trump for four years, but Covid "bears the bell away." Besides, Bergoglio and Biden parallel one another nicely. Reagan and John Paul II paralleled nicely, too, at least in overthrowing the Communists. But that exceptional team as re-manifested in Biden and Bergoglio is a freakshow joke. Two doddering life-time incompetents surrounded by sexual deviants. Incredible.

Guess I'm a cat person...!

 An Essay

Friends, Romans, countrymen! All people, like Gaul, are divided into three parts! These are the three personality types that dominate human beings.

Each personality type is named after an animal totem that best exemplifies that type: "'Sheeple', Canines, Felines." Please note that some individuals will exhibit perhaps more than one of the types earlier in life, but one specific type usually comes to eventually dominate, most often early on, and especially as a person ages. However, extraordinary circumstances might "awaken" a sleeping trait, so beware.

"Sheeple", "Canines" and "Felines"

The Sheeple are of course the majority, the sheep-people, bah-bahing through life. They're followers, following each other one-by-one till they form a group, always following their leaders (who are usually Canines, rarely a Feline). Sheeple are by far the most numerous of the three types. Perhaps they're mostly born that way, though I am certain the modern state-imposed educational apparatus does its very best to stamp out any potential Felines (Felines are just too dangerous; see below). The modern educational system is definitely NOT going to turn out Socrates, Aristotle, or Thomas Jefferson, not if it can prevent it. (Richard Feynman, the famous American physicist, has a quote about that, somewhere.)

Sheeple or Buffalo?

Essential to being a Sheeple is that Sheeple don't question orders; they obey. They'll obey people in authority, whether or not those people deserve that authority over others. Any "argument from authority" is OK by them. Or I mean, that's the usual way sheeple are – perhaps a clever Feline can get them to question orders. Perhaps Canines can push Sheeple far enough that they "break" and "stampede." Difficult, to be sure, but not impossible. Sheeple are usually not going to cause trouble, but then again, circumstances can arise – rarely – when the Sheeple turn into rampaging buffaloes. For a short time.

Now, don't get me wrong: Sheeple have minds, souls, the innate dignity of being human; they can be smart or dumb, "educated" in modern society's understanding of "education", or not. They can be knowledgeable about particular things, and competent in keeping a technological civilization running whether as plumbers, technicians, or engineers. They can be good people, they can be bad people, they can be the worst of people, they can be the best of people – well, in absolute moral terms. They can, of course, be the "best" people in a shallow wealthy society sense, naturally enough; but if so, they inherited their wealth and position rather than garnered it by being inventive entrepreneurs. Sheeple just aren't (usually) risk-takers.

Wolf or Guard Dog?

The Canines are either shepherds or wolves. Fewer in number than Sheeple, they dominate – or try to – the other two groups. Canines are always leaders of the Sheeple and are proud they're not Sheeple! But then again, many Canines question their orders no more than the Sheeple do; HOWEVER, unlike the Sheeple, the Canines have a higher likelihood of rebeling against authority. Sometimes moral Canines will do this in order to do what is right and needful because they're good shepherds and moral leaders; alas, usually they rebel in order merely to seize the power of authority for themselves.

Canines have a certain edginess about themselves. They think they're dominant, "top dogs" or "alphas" and "leaders of the pack." Or at least they seem born with the urge to become policemen, soldiers, or those nasty kinds of bureaucrats who love bossing other people about. You've all met the type. (I had an uncle by marriage who was a nice guy except when he put his Army uniform on. Then he became the worst kind of military martinet.) Canines can be smart or dumb as well, they can be good or bad, they serve as your friendly neighborhood cop or, also, the local Stasi agent. (Again and again we've seen regular, everyday American policemen – even elected sheriffs – abuse their authority during the Covid "lockdowns".)

Canines can be exemplary clergymen "leading their flocks" or they can be classic Pharisees. But again, though they take up their time bossing people about, they do not often ask that pesky question: "Why?" (Unless it is: "Why am I following this leader's orders? Why don't I jusr shoot him and become leader myself?")

The Cats

The Felines do ask "Why" because they are the Cats, and, like their whiskered animal totem, they're curious. Few in number, they are inherently driven by the notion that "the unexamined life is not worth living", as Socrates ("patron saint of Felines"), liked to say. Felines want to know the "Why" of everything. And by definition they are more suspicious of authority than either Sheeple or Canines. That's just who they are, who they are born to be – if society doesn't beat it out of them! This curiosity of theirs naturally makes them the utter pests of the Sheeple and the Canines, especially the latter, for the Sheeple are usually clueless about being curious although they find the Cats quite harmless while the Canines are smart enough to know they're lacking something in life. (It's partly why so many Canines are emotionally unbalanced, too, naturally enough!) Also, to be sure, the Canines definitely DO NOT like their shibboleths questioned. My personal experience over 60 years confirms that Canines can become quite aggressive when you question the current narrative (whatever that might be at a given time) whereas Sheeple just smile and say, "Fancy that."

Canines will therefore react badly to pesky Felines, as they did with Socrates himself, after all. They put him to death for, really, just asking questions. (Doesn't this remind you of the current "race" narratives being fostered or Covid situation? It is out of control in politics, where curiosity about, say, the 2020 election can get you into serious trouble with the authorities. Canines are very clearly trying to "shut down" any Felines who question "the Party Line"; we see that in a number of countries and states. It will get worse.)

Felines make up many – though not all, by any means – of the world's philosophers: but I would think they make up most of the artists, the inventors, the gamblers, entrepreneurs, and risk takers. They also make up the quiet dreamer types noted for being an excellent teacher in the classroom or "problem solver" in business. Once upon a time, they made up the majority of journalists and scientists, but that is definitely no longer true. The academic disciplines of science and journalism drive them out as surely as any military or journalism traditionally drives them out, and business will also drive them out, with vengeance.

Why? In part because the Cats embarrass the "hacks" and "time servers" in business, science or the military, or the propagandists in journalism; and in part if they're ever actually listened to by Canines in government, Felines can change the world.

Canines can't have that. It would disturb the "peace of mind" of the Sheeple, don't you know. (I'm being sarcastic.)

Examples:

The Military:

General Patton and Napoleon Bonaparte are perfect examples of exemplary Cats who engaged in the usually Canine Profession of the Military. They were fantastic generals. Thus, of course, they were not popular with their contemporary generals. They were Felines in the military art and they embarrassed their Canine friends. They were hated. (Napoleon dealt with that by making himself an emperor but failed to establish a lasting regime. He was eventually exiled and died not long after. A wide-spread belief is that Napoleon was murdered. George Patton, however, was murdered even before he went into exile; i.e. retired to the U.S.)

Such leaders are usually few, and they end up badly. This is true in the history of any military, for example, Ancient Rome. But just look at the Japanese military during WWII and consider Admiral Raizō Tanaka and General Tomoyuki Yamashita, the "Tiger of Malaysia". Brilliant military leaders indeed, these two garnered famous victories against impossible odds. (The Americans called Tanaka "Tenacious Tanaka".) However, these two men were loathed by the leaders of Japan's military. And alas, the Canine idiots had the power, and thus they sidelined both of these extremely capable officers. Yamashita was brought back in a hopeless situation toward the end of the war and ended up accused of war crimes and executed in 1946. Admiral Tanaka peaceably retired post war and lived quietly in obscurity until 1969. 

Finally, two quick examples from U.S. history: U.S. Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman were brilliant generals in the American Civil War, but both men had actually been driven out of the Peacetime Army before the war. (The extraordinary circumstances of the war allowed them back in.) The Canines in the Peacetime Army didn't want them because the two cats were just too clever. And also, I am sure, neither Grant nor Sherman liked being bossed about by Canine "hacks", and  the two clever generals were probably utterly bored in the Peacetime Army. (Similarly, had the French Revolution not happened, Napoleon would have never risen to be a colonel of artillery. Canines and Felines take advantage of extraordinary circumstances.)

Examples could be multiplied, but it is also true that we'll never know about all those cats who were caged by canines before they were allowed to gain any recognition for their "catness", or hammered down into the Sheeple.

In Part Two of this essay, I'll consider the situation regarding the discipline of science, because that is affecting all of us at the moment, and will continue to do so, in ever more profound, and dire, ways.

My Review of Mike Lindell's Absolute Prood Documentary

 Amici,

As for Mike Lindell's documentary, I had to watch it over time, over the past day or so. How was it? My opinion isn't worth much, but at least I watched all of it.

Well, on the one hand, I think he's produced an amazing video, but on the other hand, probably one too long for short-attention-spanned Americans to watch. It is no longer available where I originally linked to, BTW, but see it now at Rumble, as here. (The fact that it was so quickly taken down and "masked" is proof that it is making big shots very uncomfortable!) This short (14 minute) review at New American has a great review of it. I trust these guys (one of them interviewed Dr. Lee Merrit, after all).

My own thoughts:

Lindell's video is basically a one-stop, one-shop store for all the evidence that we've all heard bits and pieces of over the past few months, but Lindell holds his own court on it. Depending on you, you might find him a great regular guy, or a boorish loudmouth. He's certainly sincere, but he says "wow" even more than I do!

He interviews a number of people either closely involved on election day itself or who were investigating it afterward. Many of these we've seen before if we've been closely following the tale. The accumulation of all this evidence is devastating, but again, it is long, and leaves the staggering question: if cyber security experts KNEW all this within hours of the election itself, what the heck was going on the past few months??? Why is Zhou Xiden president and trashing the country, female sports, the energy sector, the military, and pretty much anyone who is a native-born American citizen?

The docu is almost two full hours long. But it is at 1:36:20 that the big enchilada comes on: Mary Fanning, National Intelligence researcher and author who explains how it all happened. Fanning says that cyber security experts began collecting terabytes of election fraud info from just before the election, on November 1, and on through election day and afterward. Info on 2995 counties in the Untied States, collected in real time. Obviously, this is the must-listen-to part. However, we're not told who the cyber security experts were. Was Col. Phil Waldron (of the "Battle of Gettysburg 2.0" fame and who appears at 13 minutes in), or who? And WHY IN THE WORLD, didn't Trump ACT on it. We should NEVER had had Zhou Xiden inaugurated. What really IS going on?

I'd sure like to know.

Anyway, this cyber security vote-steal section is obviously what Sydney Powell has been talking all this time about, and if this is truly evidence, she should "clean up" the baddies.

You get to see IP addresses, and protocol addresses, and the owners of the IP addresses who were involved. You see the unique addresses of the computers that interfered in our election and also the TARGETs of the interference. All exposed. You can see the method of intrusion. You can see how they broke through the various firewalls.

Again, if they knew this, why is Chairman Zhou reigning over us.

So: Owner source, ID source, IP target, state target, entry point/owner.

There are thousands of pages, thousands, on 2995 counties. It came mainly from China, but also Iran.

Sometimes they have fake administrators or merely broke through firewalls. And it shows whether they were successful or not (if not, they tried again), and then in final column you can see the votes changed/stolen. These are time-stamped and 100 percent truth. This is forensic evidence, where the invader came from and what computer they entered into, the unique ID of that computer, whether they were successful or not.

You get images of the moving lines represent the IP addresses of the hackers coming and going into the U.S.

Over 66 percent of the intrusions come from China.

They knew, the government knew, in 2016, that our election machines were open to such intrusion, Fanning asserts. James Comey was given a full briefing back then.

After this section, General Thomas McInerney comes on at 1:49 for what he usually says (which I've heard innumerable times), then for a few minutes Terry Turchie comes on at 1:53. Turchie is the former deputy assistant director (I'm not making that title up) of the Counter-Terrorism Division of the FBI. Where was the FBI? Lindell asks the question, Turchie asks the question. I certainly ask the question: where were they. Turchie says simply that the FBI is as probably as compromised as the Democratic party. That's the answer. The government agencies have been penetrated. Well, if that's true, then we're sunk already.

So, anyway, that was Mike Lindell's high point.

There is just no question the election was stolen, it was rigged. There was NO security. So I encourage you to watch it when you can even though it is long. As I say, it is a one-stop shop. However, Lindell should have opened, as I have here, the the biggest show stopper and not saved it to the end because probably few people will sit through all of the documentary. In any case, at least please spread it to everyone you know. It's not a problem of there not being evidence, but rather that the Department of Justice and the FBI refused to investigate it and that judges didn't want to look at the evidence. Or in one case, when a government cyber security agency responsible for investigating this, the agents could only go so far, and then "they met a stone wall".

Bottom line is this: If China did this, then it is an act of war, whether we treat it that way or not. It has to be – along with Covid, of course – the opening shot of their seizure of the West, or should I just say, the REST of the world. Either way (whether it is this Pearl Harbor or whether loonies are lying loudly), we'll find out. If the former, we're all soon to be slaves of China and there is no more racist people on the planet than the ancient Han Chinese. If not, Zhou Xiden will just destroy the county, turning it all into the now nearly failed state of California. In either case, my friends, don't look forward to the election in 2022. After all, even North Korea has elections.

Earlier in the documentary:

• Russ Ramsland discusses Antrim County, Michigan, where they had 82 percent of the ballots going into the adjudication box, where the poll workers could count those ballots any way they wanted to. (The norm is less than one percent adjudication, and in Fulton county in Georgia, the people running the voting there admitted to a 93.6 percent adjudication rate, "in some cases.")
  
• So a rural Michigan county that usually votes 65 percent Republican to 35 percent Democrat, was flipped, with a reverse tally being logged in. (A man closely involved with the Antrim cases comes on and discusses it in detail at 1:09, and how they did two hand recounts showing the outrageous changes that the machines created.)
  
• Ramsland says his team has gone into two other counties and will be publishing their findings there, and in those cases, the same sort of thing occurred.
  
• But that's just a drop in the wide sea of the steal.
  
• At 41 minutes in, Ramsland discusses what happened in Dallas, Texas, in 2020, and why the bad guys didn't steal the whole state of Texas because of a voter fraud case going back to 2018 revealed too much of their M.O. You just have to see the video.

At 43 minutes in, Ramsland and Lindell discuss a different subject, how the computer systems are corrupt, what Sydney Powell had been talking about. Ramsland discusses the Barcelona connection, via a company called Scytl, and how they own a company called Clarity Election ("Hydrophoric"?), and how Dominion voting and other such report their votes to them. Their server is in Frankfurt, Germany, and a malware called "Q-Snatch" operates in this company, and how it grabs login-in credentials on every county voting system in the U.S., and can therefore look back into those counties and change the votes. (As we later see, they can go down to the precinct. Just incredible.) Out of 15,718 votes in Michigan's small county of Antrim, they flipped 7,060 from Trump to Biden. (This is 100 percent fact, revealed in the hand count.) The MI attorney general is threatening all attorneys who file election lawsuits in favor of Trump or supporting the Voting Fraud story. Challenging elections has gone on for years, across the country, but now, you can't do that any longer in Michigan, not according to the MI A.G. She also threatened criminal charges against state legislators.

Ramsland says one reason why U.S. government sources didn't want to investigate that is because the U.S. government has been changing votes in other countries for years. Revelation of the 2020 steal would reveal those steals, as well. There's also no doubt actual corruption, and of course Chinese influence. Ramsland says, "Why are they going to such incredible links to say there's nothing here when clearly there is. This is almost like Enron. And it's not how these things should work."

At 49 minutes in (till 1:02), Lindell speaks with Dr. Shiva. This is just simply jaw-dropping. You really have to listen to Dr. Shiva, and how he was defrauded out of a win in the Republican primary in Massachusetts by Republicans! The one county that had mostly paper ballots, he won that one by ten percent. Every other one, that had computer voting, he lost (again and again) always by 60 percent to 40 percent against a no-name, hack Republican who didn't campaign (sound familiar, Zhou Xiden?). This testimony by Shiva is important because he emphasizes how it was the Secretary of State in MA who commanded Twitter to close Dr. Shiva down, that government elected officials destroyed Shiva's First Amendment rights. This is a great story, but I wish Lindell let Shiva speak more.

Lindell is a "just regular guy" and will bore or turn off people who might be inclined to watch his report, but who themselves come from a higher social strata and will find Lindell boorish or a "used-car-salesman" type. But that is, of course, just snobbery. And it was just snobbery that made so many despise Trump in the first place.

Also, as I keep saying, if this is true, then the Biden Administration must channel Joe Stalin and create a total police state. They seem to be doing just that. Fox Business has cancelled Lou Dobbs. Dobbs, 75, had the most-watched show on Fox Business. If they can cancel a Lou Dobbs, they can cancel anybody. It makes NO business sense, not remotely, but then, maybe they're not IN business like we think they are. (CNN is probably a CIA front, actually; and the people now running Fox are obviously not interested in making money. Jack Dorsey and Smuckerface and Bozos cost their companies billions. There's clearly something going on beyond "business.")

Mike Lindell's Big Exposé About the Election Steal

 Amici,

Have you seen this? Eric Metaxas interview an exuberant Mike Lindell. It is some interview, I hafta say.

Anyway, I went to https://michaeljlindell.com/ and it is just up!

I'm watching the video now. It is supposed to be the whole enchilada. So, we'll see. Lindell says he's going to reveal the biggest attack (a cyber attack but an act of war none-the-less) in all history.

He says he has the hard evidence (computer server IDs, computers in U.S. I.D.s, etc.) that China stole the election through direct manipulation.

If Lindell is correct, this is an act of war, most definitely, as in the Pearl Harbor Attack or the Firing on Fort Sumter. If Lindell fails to prove his shocking claims, then it's the end of the "Stolen Vote" narrative – at the very least.

An P

A Senator lied to me; and Old and New, and a War Prayer...

 Amici,

I had written to my Congressman (Steve Stivers) and Senator (Rob Portman) about supporting a careful count in the Senate and challenging electoral votes. Portman has actually written me back in a polite "boilerplate" response about although we're all disappointed, we have to accept the vote and move on, etc.; i.e., his office wrote:

The presidential election was contentious and hard fought. Roughly half of America was bound to be disappointed with the outcome. My hope is that all of us, as Americans, regardless of who we supported in the campaign, will be willing to accept the result because a thorough process was followed and the final vote count was clear.

This highlighted bit is a lie. I've been lied to by my senatorial representative. Outright. In my face (not "to my face, ahem, because it was an email). That, or Portman is an utter idiot. The only "thorough" process was the theft! And the final vote was ANYTHING but clear! Portman is, alas, either a fool or a tool. He must be primaried. (I'll try a polite response when I'm not so angry. Always be polite with these people, especially in these post-Reichstag Fire days.)

Yet at least his office did write me back. However, they also included this paragraph:

I also want to commend and congratulate Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, the county boards of elections, and the more than 50,000 Ohio poll workers for conducting a safe, secure, and transparent election in Ohio. It was not easy in the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and I am grateful for their efforts.

This is important, actually. Praising Ohio's handling of the vote. Florida handled it well, too, as did a number of states. We have to work on this, promoting it within Ohio (I saw a headline where they just purged some 97,775 inactive voters from the rolls) and BE VERY CAREFUL because the Democrats will be trying to force national election laws through that turn the whole nation into Philadelphia.

What we're facing is a "war of position" (as opposed to a "war of movement"). We have to fight in trenches, inch by inch. It is a grueling kind of fight. World War I come again. But that's what we've gotten ourselves into because the Communists have been fighting a "war of position" for over 70 years as they've moved through the institutions. It's grim. But there it is.

Under the OLD heading, I'd say, in the way of a Trump Presidency after action report:

1. Trump's first mistake was not firing Comey and much if not all of the staff of the FBI within an hour of taking the oath of office. He had every excuse to say, "As Hillary herself has said, Comey cost her the election by his bad handling of her hidden email server case, so I'm firing him forthwith." How could the Democrats complain? (They would have, of course, anyway, but so what?) Had Trump done that, he'd have kept Gen'l Flynn, and history would have been very different.
2. Relieving the top echelons of the Department of Justice was equally as important, as well, down to those "government" employees that can't easily be fired; those he should have ordered transferred to far outposts. (Do we have any hidey-holes in Kamchatka?)
   
3. Trump should have been extremely careful to tell all the people he brought in: "Under no circumstances are any of you to enter into any conversation, interview with, or have general discussion involving ANYONE in the larger government without White House counsel present. Period. Trust NO ONE in the Deep State (or the Media). We're here to clean Washington out and they all know that, so they'll be laying traps."
4. He should have, after his election and before his inauguration, consulted with conservative historians and former Cabinet officials and judges about who within any Administration had the most power, were most significant, most dangerous and potentially the most needed in a cat fight. They would have told him the WH Chief of Staff and the Attorney General. Then the Defense Secretary. Then the Secretary of State and others would come below that. So he should have done his utmost to have a ruthless but absolutely loyal Chief of Staff and the same for Attorney General. Of course the Senate wouldn't want to confirm such, but so what? Hold their feet to the fire till they gave in. Those positions were too important to pass off to political hacks like Jeff Sessions (who after decades in the Senate had done almost NOTHING of note.

In none of these bullet points did Trump seem to do what needed to be done. On the very slim chance there's ever another Republican or Nationalist president, he or she must take close heed to this counsel.

Under the NEW heading, I'd say:

• It is never over over until Gabriel sounds his horn, but who among us has the energy to fight? Even were I still residing in Ohio, I'm over 60 and "worn out" in many ways. However, there are plenty of people my age, and older and younger, who WILL fight. Some of them in government (Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan, to name just two who have been there fighting for the past four years (we need to replace Portman with Jordan!), and some of the new Congresspeople just brought in. There are also plenty outside of government, like My Pillow's excellent Mike Lindell. (That guy is quite a patriot, my friends. Support him.) We must support these.
• But also, most significantly, we must realize younger people have been trained – educated – to be clueless. We must NEVER forget the Great Dumbing Down that's been going on for at least three generations.
• That's true in the Church, as you-all know. Were it not for my mother and her excellent Catholic education (she graduated in 1932), and had I not discovered by accident both G.K.Chesterton and C.S. Lewis in high school (and later, Catholic Answers, but that was decades later), I would be as clueless about things ecclesiastical as any average 20 to 50 something "Joe Catholic."
• And therefore as I had to self-educate in all thing "Church" and "Christianity", so I had to do so regarding American history, etc. Such massive "dumbing down" had to be intentional. The takeover was planned three generations or more ago. (I'm sure you-all know about Bella Dodd; well, she had her counterparts in all educational things secular.) 
  

So that's where we're at.

War PRAYER

Rehoboam has come again, Rehoboam and Jeroboam, Ahab and Manasseh, Amon and Jehoikim and Zedekiah. Whether God provides us with a Hezekiah or Josiah, I don't know. 

So...

• For those so inclined to engage in prayer, we must pray against the new administration's goals (the "Joebama" Admin, as Sundance so rightly calls it, as it is just a retread of the Obama Administration, with a Potemkin leader). We must pray it fails in every undertaking (such as their planned destruction of the U.S. economy that Sundance details at the link). Pray for the conversion of the people, but damnation to their goals.
• Truly? Yes! We must pray that the Lord God treats the JoeBama Administration as the thieves, liars and murderers (baby killers/worshipers of Moloch and Xochipilli) they are -- for that is what they are. And indeed, they've broken every one of the Ten Commandments.
  

1. They dishonor God and worship idols (whether their Communist ideology or just themselves) so they break the First Three Commandments.
   
2. They break the Fourth by dishonoring their parents and all elderly via stealing the latters' votes, or having them vote when they're dead, or sending Covid-infected ill people into their rest homes to kill them off. Certainly the old – being as they usually are the repository of ideas of former times such a patriotism, religious faith, and honor – must be removed as soon as possible. Hence their attitude toward the elderly.
   
3. They break the Fifth Commandment, killing babies and taking jobs away from working men and women (to give them to the Chinese, who have paid them under the table to do so) so that these blue color folk commit suicide or die by opiates. Ever and always we must support all politicians who are truly Pro-Life and against Abortion, but also keeping manufacturing jobs in the U.S. is Pro-Life in this way of giving working people hope and meaning. (Also, WEALTH isn't money; it's manufactured things, material things, and by transferring our manufacturing to China, the Democrats and Uniparty-RINOs were literally impoverishing and destroying the United States. It is Hellishly evil on many levels.)
   
4. They break the Sixth Commandment in too many ways even to begin to count, AND via their control of Entertainment, they teach others to do so, echoing Romans 1:32. 
5. They break the Seventh by stealing the election, and with it the entire country! They are in the process of handing the country over to the Chinese Communists as well as hundreds of thousands of Meso-American peasants. They also steal via heavy taxes.
   
6. And of course they "covet" WILDLY things that don't belong to them, especially the property and the other fruits of those who labored in the hope of keeping what they garnered and passing it on to their children.
   
7. And perhaps worst of all, they teach others to covet as well, as Socialism/Communism does nothing so much as it instills covetousness, true envy, of what others have. Indeed, envy is the emotion infamous for bringing no sort of good to anyone whatsoever, yet envy is the single most powerful and worshiped evil that all Socialism produces.
   

So we must pray for the failure of such evil people.

Amen to that!

Under the Mercy!

Is the Reichstag Fire Coup well underway?

 Amici,

Remember the old adage, 'You can vote Socialism in, but you have to shoot it out.'

We are seeing incredible events play out in the U.S. Unheard of, never-before-seen trashings of the Bill of Rights and, well, sanity. I don't know how much longer we'll have the internet with which to communicate to one another for, my friends, the Reichstag Fire Coup is very well underway. Reports are coming in from various American Nationalist sites of massive "lockouts" affecting people from Twitter, Facebook, Instragram and the like, and endless talk of re-education camps and mass extermination of Trump supporters. (Sound absurd? Look what happened to the Jews in Germany – they just couldn't believe that lunatic Hitler with his silly moustache would do anything he said he would – and remember: Germany was the most 'advanced' country in Europe at that time.)

And has not the Political Director of ABC News Talked about "'Cleansing' America of Trump Supporters"? Doesn't that sound like Hitler "cleansing the world of Jews"? Was the guy immediately fired? Hmmm?

All absolute insanity, and utterly, utterly unAmerican and antiAmerican (for American citizens who haven't shut down their brains, it has to be a horror). The First Amendment is being trashed. The Second will soon follow, and that will involve perhaps a true shooting war. But how will we ever know? Unless we're in it.

Right now, one can't be sure one is "shadow banned" or not. I'm sure I'm far too mucn a "small fry" to be noticed, and I've never signed up on Twitter, etc. But Twitter has banned a slew of people, not just high-focus folk like President Trump, Lin Wood and Sidney Powell, but "moderates" like Kevin McCullough. Just incredible. McCullough has been saying "Big Tweet" has been out to get him, and it has. Eric Metaxas writes that although he's still able to post on Twitter, he's losing "thousands" of followers by the hour. That's a classic tactic, of course before one is banned. Taylor Marshall reported the same thing. They're Twitter or YouTube days are numbered. I see Charlie Kirk is still up on Twitter, with him posting yesterday:

"Ayatollah Khamenei is still allowed on Twitter & Instagram but Donald Trump is not. Think about that."

Indeed. One doesn't need to think long, does one?

About Twitter banning President Trump: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2021/01/08/twitter-permanently-bans-president-trump-account-potus-account-responds-and-is-immediately-deleted/#more-207010

An excerpt:

The justification itself is so bizarre it is Orwellian in nature.  Interpreting the thoughts of a person to determine their violation….  Good grief, you cannot get much more twisted and subjective than that.   This is an alarming statement and directly indicates the Big Tech systems will now define subversive activity.

President Trump sent the following response from his POTUS account, which Twitter quickly took down – (but not until we captured it).

An Préachán again:

No one, NO ONE, can say any of this is good. No one sane, that is. It's insane. What sort of lunatic believes Trump egged on Antifa/BLM to attack the Capitol, or failing that idiocy, who believes a bunch of Born-Again Christians were murdering and looting, for any reason in any location? C'mon.

So, what next? Well, if they are following the Reichstag Fire pattern, and they seem to be, then the sky's the limit. I've gone over to Parler and found Kevin McCullough there, and he's quote Dilbert creator Scott Adams, who wrote, '2020 “was the year the Fake News became so powerful they could tell you there was definitely no election fraud because you aren’t allowed to check. And it worked.”'

There was no election fraud because you weren't allowed to check.

It worked indeed.

Important to remember, of course, is the words of Christ about such times:

And fear not them that kill the body, and are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him that can destroy both soul and body in hell.

Matthew 10:28

Why silence Trump on his way out?

Some, such as Rush Limbaugh, suggest our Puppet Masters are afraid Trump will release hidden documents proving just how bad the Democrats have been, and their interaction and dependence on Chinese Communists. Blog comments on such articles are evenly divided between those who still hold out hope on Trump, and the rest who think he's folding fast. We'll see.

But it is imperative for the Left to demonize Trump and expel him before Potemkin Biden is "sworn in" (in apparently a virtual ceremony, or so rumor has it). We're in for a crazy fortnight, or what's left of it. Then begins "The Darkness" where we're in total lockdown and national mask mandates (a possibility, citing Covid as a reason); will the excellent governors of South Dakotka and Florida tell them to go to Hell? We'll see.

If the internet "goes dark", we can be sure very clever people are working to keep some semblence of communiation possible. It'll be a true Samizdat. The entire "pajamas media" began, remember, when the MainStream Media was promoting that slam Texas National Guard story on George W. Bush during the 2004 election, and average, everyday people, the "Deplorables" of Hillary Clinton, got online and started searching and communicating their findings, completely blindsiding the Left.

Martyrdom

Perhaps something like that will happen again. In the meantime, remember, martyrdom takes many forms, and I expect the version of that the Left has in store for us will be a giant, perpetual, "psych ops". Look at how much you already can't say. What public person, sports star, film star, etc., could say, "Forcing or even allowing 'sex change' procedures on children is horrific child abuse and is literally nothing but a mass sterilization of our children."? That's absolutely verboten. The mask mandates are just a physical manifestation of the larger shutting up of an entire traditional moral world. The Covid restrictions and mask mandates are part and parcel of that.

Please review these three articles by psychological expert Patrick Fagan about what mask mandates are all about.

Friday Reflections on the Political Things

Amici,

I've been seeing any number of reports about what happened, first-person accounts of people who participated in the Trump Rally on January 6th, and I mean well-known Christian activists (Protestants all, I'd guess) who testify that it was definitely Antifa. This was a CLASSIC "false flag" op, and it hurt Trump tremendously – and that's because we can't get through the MSM super-barrier to get the truthful news out. Perception is everything, and these Leftists are past-masters at controlling perception.

And as per that thought of the Reichstag fire, we can now observe the literal howling of the Left about forcing Trump out in shame, etc. (The Devil himself only knows what crazy Executive Orders Biden's Puppet Masters will have him sign.) What a orchestration of lies and outcomes! We're going to have one Infernal region of a time trying to survive the next 13 days (lucky 13) to January 20. And after that, well, true Darkness.

Clearly what the Left is trying to do is "ruin Trump's brand" to prevent him from being a source of leadership after he leaves office; so, we'll have to see if he can stop them in that attempt.

Remember always that these people are unconscionsable. Literally. It is as though they've turned themselves into sociopaths to get what they want. I'm sure their Puppet Masters have "plans" for them to take on new "green" lives as fertilizer when the Puppet Masters have gotten what they want, but you never know. The Masters might end up being the fertilizer. That can happen. 

A sad day, January 6th, but we let it happen; we let the Left just push us around forever, especially about the whole "Oh, Black Folks just can't register to vote like Whites can, so we have to throw out ALL the rules to let 'em vote!" – Hyper-ironic since it was the Demented Democrats who fixed it so Blacks couldn't vote in the first place! 

But the Democrats also pushed us around since Jack Kennedy stole the election from that wimp "Tricky Dick". (Jack laid on Nixon the worse execration Jack had, saying of Nixon, "He has no class.") Then we let that excremental maniac Lyndon Johnson (literally; he used to give reporters interviews while receiving enemas), who killed Jack, sandbag Goldwater and we (Republicans in Congress, in a minority at that time, but still) let Johnson get us into Vietnam.

John Zmirak says that we have not had Republican leaders since Reagan, and he's right. An excerpt (highlights mine):

Since Ronald Reagan left the stage, the GOP hasn’t boasted a single effective popular leader. We had no way to even spot such a figure if he appeared. Instead we made do with scarecrows like George W. Bush, tin men like John McCain, and cowardly lions like Mitt Romney. No wonder that when we heard the great booming voice of Donald Trump, we mistook the man behind the curtain for something … superhuman. When we saw him rally working people, black folks and brown folks and long-scorned “Deplorables” together at massive rallies, it seemed to us like magic. And so we bowed down and worshiped this Wizard as a god. For that, we’re now repentant.
If Trump leaves the scene, we will safely return to voting half-heartedly for the evil of two lessers, for business suits stuffed with newspaper and mannequin heads, like Paul Ryan and Nikki Haley. No chance of mistaking them for anything more than what they are.

John Z is a master of sarcasm.

Should one consider it, American Conservatives or American Nationalists really haven't had a Republican leader – a true leader – since Coolidge. Eisenhower wasn't a Republican, that's for sure (and that probably benefitted him!). Before Coolidge, Theodore Roosvelt was a fantastic leader, before he went crazy after he left the presidency; but like Trump, TR (NO ONE ever called him "Teddy"!) was larger than the Repubican mold. That makes Calvin Coolidge the all-time perfect "Republican". Before TR, Americans had no Repub leaders either (Grant was a fantastic general, a superb horseman – he was nearly a "horse whiserer" and would punch you out if he saw you mistreating an equine – was a better rider than any of the flashy Southern officers – and a remarkable writer/composition artist, but he wasn't much in the way of being president).

So, really, we've only had a few "great" Republican leaders: Lincoln, of course, the first (and he was a Whig), TR, Coolidge, Eisenhower, Reagan, and Trump. Only Coolidge and "Ike" were universally loved and without serious critics. Lincoln was hated and finally shot to death, TR went nuts and Reagan and Trump were sandboxed in by the Democrats. Funny to think of it, but Newt Gingrich was an excellent Repubican leader in Congress, one of the greats.

So now we just have to suffer.

For balm, John Zmirak has a couple of great columns here, 

and here; both are brilliant and very satrical.

And for those who watch video, Eric Metaxas has three great guests on about what to expect next and what to try to do:

Kevin McCullough "On Where The Country Is Headed From Here". 
 
Charlie Kirk "Processes The Reality Of Joe Biden Taking The President's Chair In The Oval Office"

Charlie Kirk gives a great couple of options about what Mike Pence could have done but didn't, at around the 10 to the 13 minute marks. Excellent. Honestly, Trump should have made sure Pence was on board for this, and then had Pence say, in early December, that he would not approve any slate of Electoral College Electors that the states' legislatures hadn't voted to approve. The state legislatures ARE the ones required to do this, and it would have been easy to call them into session to do so. As it was, Pence could have sent those six states' Elector slates back to them on January 6th, saying he'd accept them when the legislatures voted on them. Instead, Pence failed us all, massively. Kirk makes a great argument. 

Then Lance Wallnau "Looks Into The 'Cosmic Conflict' Side Of Yesterday's Events," i.e. an Evangelical perspective.

This Wallnau, however, also was there at the rally and march and testifies to how Antifa infiltrated the Trump rally.

Haven't found much Catholic comment yet, or at least commentary I'd trust. Taylor Marshall speaks here about "... all three branches of the USA will not held by a single Protestant: they are dominated by "Catholics" in the shape of Pope Francis's global agenda."

And Father James Altman's most recent homily is here. He's always worth listening to! If every Catholic priest preached like this, and served his people as Fr. Altman does, there'd be no Protestants.

Basically, all are optimistic, but guarded. It's going to be brutal for months, but a backlash will build against the Dems, as it always does. They'll also need super-majorities in both Houses to advance their more radical ideas, and the margins are so close in both Houses it is unlikely they'll succeed. But the real problem remains that if the elections are going to be absolutely stolen every time, there's no remedy unless the people force them to be honest. And I think all concerned would say that as time goes on and we see just how fraudulent the election was, there's going to be a storm wind in the USA. Maybe. The Tech Titans and the MSM will do their utmost to keep most people in the dark.

It will be a cosmic judgment on the national character, and Americans are just two different nations now, the halves of which loathe each other.

The Reichstag Fire Redux in 2021

 Amici,

What a day it was yesterday. A disaster for the American Right, right? A smashing (literally) success for the American Left? Trump himself seems to have "ruined his brand" yesterday and now to have made a non-concession concession early this morning Washington time. So is it all over now? 

Oh, no. It's just beginning.

One aspect to this that no one considers

The 2020 election was certainly stolen. I've seen far too much evidence to think anything else (see below). So in the normal course of events, we would see a lot of books, films, research papers, etc., come out about it all, with incredibly mounting evidence. How can Biden/Harris be president when EVERYONE knows they stole the office? How can the powers-that-be in the Congress allow this? How can the Courts have it shown they did nothing to prevent national disaster?

Therefore, to stop the ever-mounting evidence, the puppet masters simply MUST kill the first amendment and free speech. That's already happening on the big social public platforms for the past month. Now the Left has the Executive Power to actually put an end to the Bill of Rights. How can the powers-that-be in Congress allow this? How can the Courts have it shown they did nothing to prevent national disaster?

"The crisis is arrived when we must assert our rights, or submit to every imposition, that can be heaped upon us, till custom and use shall make us as tame and abject slaves."

                                         —George Washington (1774)

Too early to tell much of anything at the moment for certain, and that might be true for some time to come, actually, but I wanted to get this idea to you I had of comparing what happened yesterday to the Reichstag fire back in 1933 (a crazy idea of mine, but I wanted to get it to you-all before much more news breaks).

A tragedy at least it was entirely, although I know it wasn't exactly the evil right-wing fiasco the MainStream Media and the Democrats/Unitparty Repubs are reporting. Evidence seems to be Capitol Hill police were taking selfies with the pro-Trump people and taking down barriers (I've seen video of this) before it got ugly. Evidence shows Antifa getting involved at that point.

So, again, with the caveat that it is far too close in time to the events yesterday for us to know what happened for sure, or even half-sure (for example, about the fatal shooting of Ashli Babbit, who is quickly becoming a martyr), we can draw one startlingly obvious conclusion; i.e.: The Left could turn what happened in Washington D.C. yesterday into a reenactment, Saul Alinsky-style, of the February 27, 1933 Reichstag Fire.

I may be completely wrong, of course, but right now it's just too perfect, so I had to write about it.

Yes, again, it's still too early for anything definitve, and we'll be inundated with articles/interviews like this one from LifeSite News, which is an interview with someone who "stormed the Bastille" about his thoughts and feelings. In any event, with what we know now, I suggest the Reichstag gambit. And if Antifa was indeed involved, then the analogy would be a perfect fit: "Never let a manufactured crisis go to waste!"

From the Wikipedia report on the Reichstagsbrand event (highlights mine):

By the time police and firefighters arrived, the lower house 'Chamber of Deputies' was engulfed in flames. The police conducted a thorough search inside the building and accused Van der Lubbe. He was arrested, as were four communist leaders soon after. Hitler urged President Paul von Hindenburg to issue an emergency decree to suspend civil liberties and pursue a "ruthless confrontation" with the Communist Party of Germany. After the decree was issued, the government instituted mass arrests of communists, including all of the Communist Party's parliamentary delegates. With their bitter rival communists gone and their seats empty, the Nazi Party went from having a plurality to a majority (in the Reichstag), thus enabling Hitler to consolidate his power.

For a long time, it was thought the fire was not a Nazi act, but something they took advantage of, though today I think it generally accepted that the Nazi's had a crack team of the S.A. set the fire. Either way, they took advantage of the incident.

History N.B. In the national German election in November of 1932, the Nazi Party achieved a plurality – not a majority – so they didn't have outright control of the Reichstag, as the Democrats do now of Congress. Would the ambitious Hitler submit himself to be chancellor of a coalition government? You'd better believe he would; he jumped at the chance. Against his instincts, Hindenberg's advisors got the old man to offer Hitler to be chancellor and 'form a government'. Hitler was sworn in as Chancellor and head of the coalition government on January 30, 1933. Staging the Reichstag fire a month later allowed him to get the not-altogether-mentally-there 85-year-old Hindenberg (sound like someone we know?) to issue the emergency degree by what we would call today a presidential "executive order". Hindenburg died a year-and-a-half later, on August 2, 1934, and Hitler had the German presidency abolished forthwith.

Connection to today

Well, well, my friends, ain't that interesting? Whatever the specific details unique to both events, however, it is a perfect game plan to take advantage of what happened yesterday at the Capitol. Pelosi (and maybe Schumer now, too) are:

• Issuing calls for Congressmen and Senators who supported Trump and contested the elector-slate candidates to be ejected from Congress (as Hitler ejected already sitting Communist deputies).
• They're also issuing calls for President Trump to be instantly removed from office!
  
• The Tech Titans have suspended the President's Twitter and other accounts (supposedly for a short time, but long enough that he couldn't broadcast an appeal for order and retreat from the Capitol, so that he can be cast is as bad a light as possible).

We'll have to see how far any of this goes.

How did we get to this mess?

The Left. Ignorant, Godless thugs that they are, they remain both merciless and ceaseless. They plan long, as in generations long, and stay with it, like true Revolutionaries. This is their false religion, their false god, and the rank-and-file believers, at least, are wholly given over to it. Everyone else has a daily life and daily bread to earn and daily prayers to say: but the Left lives, eats, breathes for what they're trying achieve like true zealots.

However, they're also like Bourbon aristocrats in many ways:

• They talk a big show about equality, but as we know from endless examples throughout the Covid Lockdowns, what they mean is "for thee, not me" – they can party hardy, travel to the beach, and get their hair done when no one else can dare do that. They're Bourbons.
  
• They lie, cheat, and steal (for details of stealing the Georgia Senate race, see further below) and they ALWAYS accuse YOU of doing what THEY do with impunity. (For the last four years they accused Trump of doing what THEY do!)
  
• They use tactics from the past, over and over again. For example, today's standard Democrat could be said to be a Menshevik and they are about to be eaten alive by the hard-core Bolsheviks.
• They use sex to compromise the opposition and to mortally weaken the over-all society, while they themselves engage in endless depravities (thanks to the Frankfurt School theories).
  
• The Reichstag fire is a perfect example of the above, as well as a perfect example of using Saul Alinsky approved tactics.
  

Unfortunately for all of us who love freedom, and who admire and/or love the United States of America, Trump played right into their hands. And please note, I'm seeing a LOT of dislike of Trump and Don Jr. in the blogs today, so the Left achieved that, at least. If the Left wanted to discredit Trump in the eyes of his base, perhaps they succeded; it is too early to tell how extensive or permanent this is.

• They knew (as did we all) about Trump's huge march he had called on Washington, and laid their plans carefully.
  
• Antifa and BLM operatives may have indeed infiltrated mass of people and were involved in some degree, one can only hope we find out the details before a Democrat 'emergency degree' is issued and all press and internet is shut down, in inciting the violence at and in the Capitol itself.
  
• At least, of course, that is exactly what they often to and it is what Alinsky encouraged them to do.
• I've read early reports – but again, all too early for any certainty – that visual recognition technology has already identified some Antifa indiviuals in the crowd. I wouldn't be surprised. As noted above, it is what they do.
  

Clearly, all this is to scare the daylights out of milquetoast Republicans (and timid Menshevik Democrats), so it looks like they'll sweep into power on January 20th and our full nightmare will begin. And anyway, so many of the bigshot Republicans are just Uniparty types. We have heard all sorts of things about Mike Pence, but he certainly "punted" yesterday, and wittingly or unwittingly played into the hands of the Godless (which in theory he shouldn't do, being an evangelical Christian). Had he acted as Trump requested, the Supreme Court would have had to hear it. As it is, barring a true miracle, an empty husk in a suit will be sworn in as president.

Now what? Learn to suffer.

So, what now? We'll see. But if the Reichstag fire scenario is followed, or even if we get only the slow, painful insulting slide into Leftist confusion, poverty and misery, we can our expect puppet masters have brain-dead Biden issue Executive Orders to seize guns, arrest a lot of people on the right, control the press and the internet, and issue a national lockdown and mask-wearing regime.

Sound silly? They'll say what they have had the news media say for years, what they've had the FBI say for years, that it is White Supremacists who are the real trouble, and that "Red State America" is the real evil and inherently racist, and they're forced (aligator tears) to suspend the Bill of Rights to handle all us bad guys. (Don't worry; in the re-education camps, you'll be enlightened by Critical Race Theory propagandists galore.)

While you still can, therefore, watch Mark Steyn (alas, on Tucker Carlson) talk for a couple of minutes last night. Mark starts just after 3.33 minutes in. He calls out the galling hyper-hypocrisy of the Left about "law and order" and riots and all the rest. Very good. Watch before it disappears.

The Georgia Senate Vote

Just as old Lin Wood and Sidney Powell said it would be, the run-off election in Georgia was a screaming freak show of in-your-face fraud and theft. Kevin McCullough discusses it here with Eric Metaxas.

Listen to the whole thing while you can. Here's an excerpt I transcribed for you (but whole interview is very informing).

Kevin McCullough Talks About "The Big Takeaway" From Last Night's Runoff Election In Georgia:

"This is the big takeaway, and this is what I've been talking about for the last 60 days. If you have reasonable considerations about doubts of cheating and systems that are bad and possible conspiracies involving other countries and voting substractions and data that just goes missing, it's probably best not to use the same system that created all those doubts from the last election in the next election. What we saw in Georgia is – at least as we are having this discussion right now, as I am able to report the best that I can right now – we are seeing the exact same methodologies that were used on Nov 3 to no one's surprise to be used  used on January 5th in the run-pff in the state of Georgia. And that includes, most specifically – this what I have zeroed in on in the last few days – is the data itself that they will even probably try to certify, show subtractions from Mr Perdue's column, consistently, periodically throughout the night, and then no substractions ever occurring for Mr. Ossoff. I have not studied the Warnock  race as closely because the evidence is starting to pile up in the Perdue case pretty quickly. But I've multiple evidences of video substraction in real time that's happening on multiple Networks: the same amounts, the same decrements are being taken away. You should only have an incremental increase. (ends 2:14 

McCullough then explains how all this is a centralized source showing the changes. It is simply amazing. You really ought to listen it. He stresses how these voting anomalies, these subtractions, ONLY COME FROM ONE SIDE OF THE LEDGER! (Guess which side.)

McCullough ends on this note, a great summation:

17:42 By every statistical anomaly, by every piece of history that we know, everything that I based my maps on, everything that you could see on the ground, all the grassroots work, there was NO WAY by any historical standard, that Donald Trump set to lose on November 3rd. And I don't believe that Georgians voted honestly to elect two of the most radical senators that will be in the Senate last night. Georgia is still far too conservative a state for me to believe that. So how do we explain all that if evil is allowed to prosper at this moment in time? I don't know, but if I were the Church, I'd start to do some serious soul-searching and say 'God, what is it that you are asking of us, because obviously, you don't want to make it easy for us for the foreseeable future.'

Well, Kevin, I, at least, can answer that in one word: Suffering.

Catholics are used to suffering. Or I should say Trad, orthodox Catholics have never forgotten that we live in a Vale of Tears. It's about to get a lot more tearful.

Prepare to be martyrs. Not classic "red" martyrs killed in brutal fashion, or just having our heads lopped off by some honest Muslim. Not some quick, easy way to Paradise; oh, no.

No, we'll be forced to endure endless psychological warfare in a less bloody, but no less effective, strategy as the pagan Japanese used to crush Catholics in 16th century Japan. If you want to know how bad it will get, watch "Silence", the movie by Martin Scorsese. 

Get ready for that, at least.
