This Didn’t Happen Over Night
“I’m from the government and I am here to help.” There’s nothing scarier than a madman with an automatic weapon, especially if he works for the government.
It’s been going on in every Democratic regime since Bill Clinton’s when he selected Janet Reno as the first in a line of Heinrich Himmler wannabes to serve as attorney general. In addition to Elian Gonzales, Ms. (not sure if that’s her preferred pronoun) Reno gave us Waco and Ruby Ridge. Unfortunately, the media and the Republican Party stood by and did nothing – the media because it doesn’t attack Democrats and the Republicans have no balls.
Reno was followed by Eric “Wingman” Holder and Janet Lynch. Now we have Merrick Garland. Holder raised weaponizing the Department of Justice and the FBI to an art form. Garland is following in his footsteps. Lynch actually was the best of the lot, which is like being the most honest person at CNN.
The Obama regime also weaponized the Internal Revenue Service with Lois Lerner attacking conservative organizations, removing their tax exempt status and subjecting them to audits. Again, the media and the Republicans did nothing.
Now Biden and the Democratic Congress passed a bill that adds 87,000 agents to the IRS, doubling its size. Anyone who actually believes these new agents will be going after billionaires and multi-millionaire tax cheats has been watching too much CNN. People like George Soros, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and Elon Musk have the funds to hire the best tax accountants. They don’t have to cheat on their taxes. There are plenty of loopholes and their tax people can easily find them. That’s why Buffet and Zuckerberg pay a smaller percentage than a single mom working two jobs to get by.
This expanded IRS is going to be targeting the working class and small businesses, who don’t have the funds to fight back. Expect them to follow Lois Lerner’s footsteps and zero in on conservatives and anyone who speaks out against the government.
We live in a time when most of the world’s leaders – Pope Francis, Klaus Schwab, many “Fortune 500” CEOs, US bureaucrats and most Democrats – oppose democratic forms of government. If we don’t dig in now, it will soon be too late. It’s time for Republicans to realize that Democrats are involved in a death match. Marquis of Queensberry rules won’t work.

Excellent and timely post, bc3b.
That picture will probably be used to train the 87,000 new IRS agents in how to use “deadly force”

What’s the best thing about Janet Reno? She died November 7, 2016, the day before Trump was elected. That was a
goodGREAT week for America.[3]
JR –
This is a photo that I will never forget. Why wasn’t that nut-job fired? You don’t point an automatic weapon at a child and innocent adults.
Why are federal officers carrying automatic weapons when they are persecuting innocent families or when arresting 70-year old Roger Stone whose wife was seriously ill?

As I have said before, a recent Rasmussen poll showed that a plurality of Americans (47%-46%) disapprove of the FBI.
If the Republicans don’t make the DOJ, FBI and IRS major campaign issues, they are even dumber than I think they are.

Here’s the “deadly force’ IRS job posting JR referred to in Post 1:

“This expanded IRS is going to be targeting the working class and small businesses”
My intuition, surely the same as yours, is that there are enough same-thinking gov’t workers who have already coordinated their actions and have already technically violated laws in order to advance Swamp initiatives that they’ll skip right on past “working class and small business” and go directly for “working class and small business who are registered Republican”.
They have each others’ backs, the media won’t print the story and they’ll be perfectly safe to be dishonest partisans.

The reason Jeff Zuckerberg and Warren Buffet pay a lower percentage in taxes isn’t because they are breaking the law, but because the tax laws were written for their benefit. Expect these 87,000 new agents are going to target small businesses and working class Americans, especially any that speak out against the government.
[12]
9,
Imagine what that ‘IRS agent’ will be like…..
* Probably under 40.
* Probably Woke.
* Failed Maths.
* Hates guns, but was given one.
* Has reading comprehension of a 6yo.
My gut says they will never fill all those 87k positions before something horrific happens and Congress is required to act contrary to meeting the original mission.

The White House privately demanded Twitter ban me months before the company did so
Federal officials targeted me specifically; when they met with Twitter in April 2021, “they really wanted to know about Alex Berenson”
Biden Administration officials asked Twitter to ban me because of my tweets questioning the Covid vaccines, even as company employees believed I had followed Twitter’s rules, internal Twitter communications reveal.
In a White House meeting in April 2021, four months before Twitter suspended my account, the company faced “one really tough question about why Alex Berenson hasn’t been kicked off from the platform,” a Twitter employee wrote.
The employee recounted the meeting discussion afterwards on Twitter’s internal Slack messaging system. The message, and others, make clear that top federal officials targeted me specifically, potentially violating my basic First Amendment right to free speech.
The First Amendment does not apply to private companies like Twitter. But if the companies are acting on behalf of the federal government they can become “state actors” that must allow free speech and debate, just as the government does.

There are starting to be places where vaxxed hospitalizations are outnumbering unvaxxed. Isolated outliers or trend?
Saw this posted as explanation. Time will tell.
There are lots of things which point to the spike protein jab causing the immune system to be desensitized to the virus, similar to how “allergy shots” work. When people get infected and their immune systems don’t react properly, you would expect:
— milder symptoms (because cough, congestion, fever, headache, etc. are manifestations of immune reaction)
— higher viral loads (because the immune system isn’t killing the virus)
— more mutations faster (because dead viruses don’t mutate)
— being contagious for much longer (it’s your immune system killing the viruses that ends your ability to infect others)
— people getting infected over and over with the same bug with short breaks in between (if your immune system doesn’t react the first time, it’s going to react less the second time. and third. and fourth. and…)
— if all of those things are present at once you will get to the catastrophe, which is true asymptomatic spread where the jabbed become like typhoid mary unwittingly infecting and killing others because they have no idea that they are infectious.

Zero faith in John Durham.. but
“DEVELOPING: Sources say the FBI agents and officials who were involved in the raid on former President Trump’s home work in the same CounterIntelligence Division of the FBI that investigated Trump in the Russiagate hoax and are actively under criminal investigation by Special Counsel John Durham for potentially abusing their power investigating Trump in the Russian fraud and therefore have a potential conflict of interest and should have been RECUSED from participating in this supposed “espionage” investigation at Mar-a-Lago.”

An interesting and I suspect intentional and timely ‘leak’ from Durham – only if it’s actually true.
Same cabal still at it if true, but given his lack of indictments maybe he can’t or doesn’t have any desire to do anything about it other then leak they’re still under investigation. Me trying to be generous to JD even though I have no fucking reason too at this point.

mpt, 22, 53
Coverage on Tornado Cash is available from this “On The Brink” podcast starting about 11:00.
There are convenient “chapter” links along the left hand side.
If I understand PRP, one significant thing that came out of it was that a S/W Dev was charged for coding Tornado which is not precedented (not covered in the OTB podcast).
It’s a contract on the Ethereum blockchain and like BitCoin there is no corporate office, no one controls Tornado Cash, no one owns it. It has been (apparently) used by NKorea to launder money/crypto obtained via hacks and other fraudulent means. Tornado Cash is very useful for financial privacy. Plenty of innocents have money on the Tornado blockchain and may be cut off from their assets through no fault of their own.

Six Flags CEO: ‘We became a cheap day care center for teenagers’
Six Flags revealed it has shed nearly 2 million customers during the past year – a drop that came partly because of an initiative to weed out “rowdy teenagers,” according to the company’s CEO.
Notice how the comments in the article quickly picked up on the “teenager” euphemism used by the CEO.
[56]
“Six Flags CEO: ‘We became a cheap day care center for teenagers’”
—
You were always a day-care center for teenagers…and not a particularly cheap one at that as my memory serves, though I can’t speak to more recent times/years.
In fact the cheaper option in NJ back in my day was usually Action Park not 6-Flags, but 6flags was more popular cause more roller-coaster\ride focused back then, where as AP was more activity\water park focused. There were always storied of more ‘problems’ at the jackson 6flags then AP. Part of that was back then AP was accessible mostly just by car or chartered bus, where as 6f was more accessible from nyc and nj urban centers via public transport.

Durham is in a tough spot. He is duty bound to protect the agency. Yet he is also chartered to go where the facts take him. Sounds like the classic Trolley Problem of no good choices. He can only avoid this is if he finally has the epiphany “I did not sign up for this sh#$.” and releases the hounds. Which means he might have to indict his own boss — Garland.

As I have noted before, think of any movie you ever seen about someone being kidnapped.
The kidnapper ALWAYS keeps their face hidden…IF they intend to ever release their victim. But, when the kidnapper lets the victim see their face, the victim (and we the audience) knows that the kidnapper has no intention of EVER letting the victim go. The victim is doomed, unless they fight as if their life depends upon it…because it does.
WE are the victims of what the FBI, DOJ, IRS, et al, are doing. And they no longer even try to hide their faces.

The historically prolife Kansas had a presidential level turnout for the statewide abortion referendum and the pro-choice side won by 20%.
the ONLY thing that can potentially stop the red Wave overall this cycle is the prolifers trying to elect the democrats that are within our party.
We also have the three Trump troll candidates Arizona, Georgia, and Penn in the senate that are tanking the GOP senate in particular.
The Trump troll candidates could lead to have Biden having a dem senate in 2024-2026 should he win the election and finally getting his bernie bros agenda passed.

If Trump elects three democrats despite a red wave election, how is this productive for 2024 when it puts us in danger of Biden with democrats getting all their goodies since they would then have the senate?

Dang, I just checked in, in order to post the ChiTown Weekend Numbers but bc beat me to it, LOL.
re: PRPs (trolling) worries about Trump Senate recommendations, it’s not a big deal.
1) Trump is elderly, he will at most make one more run in 2024, then the media circus and attention will move on to others. No need to focus on Trump.
2) He’s got a better-than-most track record, hey, let him do his thing
3) Even if a Dem is elected here and there, in the long run it’s good to get RINOs out of office and NOT add any more. Mitt, Liz, McCain, Bush, and the horrific Paul Ryan have been our worst nightmare. We get them into office and they sabotage all we hold dear. Who recently printed that saying that goes something like–
“If I only have one bullet left and I’m with an enemy and a traitor I’ll point my gun at the traitor.”
So, yeah, make it clear to the Powers That Be that running RINOs won’t work.
4) We are never going to make progress if Dem lies are allowed to flourish. All Repubs need to standup and say “I support Trump”. It’s completely cray-cray to let the corrupt media and the Dems (but, I repeat myself) dictate who you are allowed to favor.
5) We owe him. What heroism to stand up, open up that Overton Window and put himself, his family and his business at risk.
Did anyone else notice that former Repub candidate for Senate Roy Moore, … who was thrown under the bus by RINOs eager to lick the boots of the MSM and Dems … has won a defamation lawsuit and is owed millions?
That’s a perfect example of why it NEVER pays to fall for the Dems when they claim some Repub is beyond the pale.

JR, mpt and myself need to have a food stored in case an earthquake hits. But now we also need to prep so we’ll survive if truckers stop delivering food to the markets.
AB5 severely limits who can be a contractor. It forces people to sign up and join unions in order to work. They’re applying this to independent truckers. At the same time they are implementing rules to force trucks to upgrade their engines to support global warming.
Kinda like Germany turning off the oil/natgas spigots, shutting down nuclear and thinking that wind and solar are going to work.

Union Sponsored AB 5 Hits Independent Truckers
In the Port of Oakland, 90 percent of the 9,000 trucks serving the port are operated by independent contractors
…
A recent ruling by the California Air Resources Board requires semi-trucks and other diesel commercial vehicles to have engines built in 2010 or newer by 2023. Under this new regulation, an estimated 40,000 trucks in California will have to be retrofit by next year. For independent truckers who own their vehicles and survive on thin margins, this is going to put them out of business. Thanks to the shortage of semi-conductors, there is a shortage of new engines and compliant trucks, making a costly investment even more expensive. The rising cost of diesel fuel has also put a financial strain on truckers.
And now on top of that, California’s 70,000 independent truckers are being hit with enforcement of AB 5, which has redefined “independent contractor.” Under the new criteria, most independent truckers will not be able to qualify. They will be forced to sell their trucks and either retire from the business, or drive as an employee of a shipping company.

The GOP won many senate seats in 2016 off Trump’s coat tails, but then again Trump wasn’t the one picking the candidates in the primary at the time.
-3 senate seats during a red wave caused by Georgia, Penn, and Arizona is catastrophically bad

US SENATE – PENNSYLVANIA (Momentive/SM)
John Fetterman (D) 52%
Mehmet Oz (R) 38%

and the last Fox poll had Fetterman up by 11%

I would add that if the Right wants to target Murkowski and Collins and Romney and some others who are voting to preserve the filibuster, they can barely afford to do such things when Trump is throwing races into the dumpster.

Minneapolis teachers union agreement stipulates White teachers be laid off first, regardless of seniority

I’m of two minds on this. First this is obvious anti-white racism. On the other hand, rubbing liberals’ faces in their own excrement is probably a good thing.

My wife and I are looking to diversify our investment assets and I’ve been looking at nuclear-focused ETFs as it seems like a no-brainer for growth over the next 10 to 15 years. The DRLL ETF looks good as well. I need to find some agriculture-focused ones as well as the leftist trying to starve the world.

ETH is already back to almost 2000. Merge is next month. Probably stays bullish at least up until the merge.
Also Tesla stock split on the 25th keeping some momentum on that.
I was watching cryptobanter at S Korea conference a couple days ago. The Asians tend to be ahead of things. All that was talked about was meta\gaming and to a lessor extend crypto derivative services. I derisked a lot Dec-Jan timeframe when things were exploding but I’ve been rebuilding it.
[117]
Polygon\MATIC is turning in the primary layer one for gaming at the moment and by quite a bit with sol and avax distance second. That’s probably one of the reasons matic had a run lately.
[118]
Fees are finally very cheap on eth right now so easy to build micro cap portfolio at moment.

China seems to be a mess right now. They have bad vaccines and because of covid zero they really haven’t had much covid exposure like the USA has had.
Now they are stuck with conundrum of continue covid zero with poor economic results or try to let covid spread freely when they don’t have that much immunity to it and ineffective vaccines.
Oil crashing is probably because of what’s going on in (China and helping Biden out a bit)
I think we might even have negative CPI prints next year if continues.

PRP: “Oil crashing is probably because of what’s going on in China”
US is trying to drive oil down to hurt Russia, of course.
The strong dollar means a bunch of countries are hurting and global econ activity is slowing, thus less oil is needed (that’s where China comes in)
Oil was over 100, then fell to the 80s. Now it is slowing rising back up, it’s in the 90s with I think a bias upward.

China is enforcing a track-trace-lockdown policy. Its all they have. In most cases the lockdowns are city wide in implementation. Port of Xiamen was recently removed from lockdown after nearly a month. Make a fuss and the authorities will weld your entrance door shut.

35% in, 64-31. Take Cheney off the barbie, she’s toast.

Yeah and Cheney would be lower still except for a massive effort by WY Dems to vote in the Repub Party primary.

Saw a finance show on EU energy, esp Germany.
The last 3 German nuclear plants will NOT be shut down after all. I forget the exact number but they’re about 13% of all energy production. Burning wood is rapidly rising as a category. Not a joke.
EU cost for the base quantity of natgas was given as $70 USD. In the states, it’s like $9.50.
“To our European friends: cultivate sweaters and desperation…”
[128]
Cheney should have withdrawn rather than take the shellacking she received last night. Have not seen a rebuke this bad by voters since the election Reagan v Mondale. Any aspirations she had for future offices died last night.
[129]
“To our European friends: cultivate sweaters and desperation…”
That presumes you have the cotton (they are having a major drought) and the energy to process it (RU turned off the gas again). Jim I think all they have left is the desperation.

The tally….

Cheney is not merely delusional…she IS mentally ill.
Ok, and she’s a pig too.

133,
Interesting read. I only disagree with the author on one aspect — saving the FBI. Sometimes to save a tree one has to remove dead or infected limbs. The FBI is so infected. It needs to be disbanded and defunded. It cannot be saved as the rot is too deep.
[135]
We got along without an FBI for many decades.
It’s always been a loose cannon. Time to look at it VERY closely and slim it way down.
The Covid Dissenters keep chipping away. I *think* that many are seeing more deeply into the issue. Hopefully some are troubled about how Gov’t, Media, Big Tech social platforms and medical admins coordinated so strongly to suppress important information.
Maybe the whole issue will go quietly away. Gov’t will give up on forced vaxxing and masks and people will gradually go back to normal.
Perhaps it will be revived after the midterm elections, at least in some geographical areas.
Personally, I’d like to see a set of Nuremburg 2.0 trials.
https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/cdc-admits-they-were-wrong-about
CDC admits they were wrong about a huge safety problem by silently deleting the erroneous text.
I’m typing this in. Apologies for errors. This is what was silently removed.
The mRNA and the spike protein do not last long in the body.
Our cells break down mRNA and from these vaccines and get rid of it within a few days after vaccination.
Scientists estimate that the spike protein, like other protein our bodies create, may stay in the body up to a few weeks.
If you follow the link to the El Gato Malo SubStack, you will read this, amongst other things–
this is a BIG deal as a large part of the safety claim around these drugs was initially predicated on the ideas that
they remained localized around the injection site.
they were rapidly cleared by the body and did not stick around to generate lasting effects.
this was all in service of the basic claim that systemic effects from mRNA innoculant injection would be minor and transitory.
point 1 has long been proven to be false and was known (but not disclosed) from animal data that predates EUA and was never even tested in humans pre-approval despite dire need. it was rapidly abandoned.
point 2 has long been shown to be false as well and it appears that even the CDC is no longer willing to make this attestation.
get worried.
this is a very big deal because the spike protein produced by these vaccines is FAR more dangerous in a great many ways than the spike from covid itself and this is even more true today when compared to more moderate variants like omicron.
the vaccines are highly CG enriched and this is a strong reason to presume that having them linger around for long periods will increase the risk of, accelerate, or outright cause cancer, heart damage, and a number of other extreme ill effects.
