Good morning kids. Friday and the weekend is here. At the top is the breaking story of a mass shooting that left 8 people dead at an Indianapolis FedEx facility, including the attacker. No real details as to the identity of the aforementioned or motives, but like the Nation of Islam DC Gumball Rally and jihad enthusiast, or the Boulder and Atlanta incidents, this too will be buried by the propagandists if the assailant wasn't a white male Christian MAGA supporter, or cannot be easily transformed into one by the NY Times editorial board. Prayers for the victims and their loved ones. 

Now, onto the continued drive to turn us into a totalitarian vassal state of either the Chi-Coms or the global ummah, whichever one gets the upper hand. So far, the Yellow-Red Peril is in the lead, certainly here in the land of the freebie and the home of the knaves, the latter controlling the instrumentalities of government while firmly in the pocket of Emperor Pooh-Xi.

In February 1946, George Kennan, then-deputy chief of mission in Moscow, responded to a request from the Treasury Department to detail the Soviet situation. The USSR had recently declined to take its supposed place in the postwar international order by declining to endorse the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, among other things.

Kennan's response was as unexpected as it was prescient. In a telegram that exceeded 5,000 words, now justly known as the Long Telegram, Kennan outlined the character of Stalin's regime: its "neurotic view of world affairs," its "instinctive Russian sense of insecurity," its Marxist-Leninist outlook -- "the fig leaf of their moral and intellectual respectability" -- that formed its fear of "capitalist encirclement" and justified the brutality of the five-year plan, and so on. Most importantly, Kennan predicted Soviet efforts to destabilize western nations via the exploitation of preexisting domestic conflicts and thereby erode trust in political institutions and processes. Kennan warned: 

Efforts will be made in such countries to disrupt national self-confidence, to hamstring measures of national defense, to increase social and industrial unrest, to stimulate all forms of disunity. All persons with grievances, whether economic or racial, will be urged to spelt redress not in mediation and compromise, but in defiant violent struggle for destruction of other elements of society. Here poor will be set against rich, black against white, young against old, newcomers against established residents, etc. 

This should sound familiar. China is now evidently adopting this playbook described by Kennan. Through well-timed social media blasts and carefully tailored opinion pieces, Beijing is both spreading its Communist message, (artificially) improving its international image, and exacerbating domestic fissures -- especially racial tensions -- in the American sociopolitical landscape.

Bingo. And whether they actually believe the crap they are spewing or just using it as a means to dupe an already alarmingly duped mass of the citizenry as a means to further consolidate power and accrue total, permanent control is irrelevant. If our so-called "sacred democracy" (puke) faces existential threats from white supremacist or other xenophobic violent fictitious bogeymen, then all bets are off in terms of not just correcting the problems and "restoring" order (as the so-called "moderates" of the tyrannical set allegedly want) but of actually wiping the slate clean and eradicating every vestige of America as founded. That is the goal of the Maoists and Marxists since they believe you cannot restore something that never existed or was evil/illegitimate at the outset. 

Hence, shambling lipid mass and purveyor of raw sewage Jerry Nadler's idiotic, yet still shockingly Orwellian proclamation: 

"Some people will say we’re packing the Court. We’re not packing the Court; we’re unpacking it.” 

No doubt, this turd of an aphorism is going to be repeated ad nauseam from the usual quarters in DC and its house organs. But unfortunately, like "No Justice No Peace" it's going to stick with far too many who don't know any better. Reason, rationality and facts don't distill into catchy little football cheers like "Ooh-Ongawa-Alexis de Tocqueville's got the powah!" Seriously, what good is it for me to shriek for the umpteenth time that we're not supposed to have "balance " on the court between conservative and liberal. We're supposed to have unanimous fealty and respect for the principles and words AS ORIGINALLY WRITTEN of the Constitution, regardless of the personal political preferences of those appointed to the bench. That means, no penumbras and emanations in order to get the outcome of a case that otherwise could never have passed muster either in the voting booth or in Congress, the completely FUBAR nature of both of those notwithstanding. 

One can look at all the horrendous decisions of SCOTUS since its inception, and the perverted pretzel logic used by some truly horrid people to get the political outcome they wanted. But given the state of the nation as it is today - essentially dead - arguably the worst of the lot was John "Julia" Roberts in upholding Obamacare. One can once again fulminate over William O. Douglas' magical "right to privacy" written in invisible ink or Hugo "once you go" Black's "separation of church and state" from the same inkwell, but Roberts literally took a red pen and re-wrote the law by declaring something specifically designed as a "penalty" as a "tax." No wordy rambling pretenses and interpretations of what the framers meant or flowery philosophical ramblings about justice and Magna Carta or the Bible. A naked, shameless and absolutely illegal action that should have jettisoned his career (and him) into the heart of the sun. That it did not speaks volumes of the amoral, unethical and power-mad attitude of 99% of the denizens of DC and other governments around the former United States.

So now, in order to transition to a more perfect disunion, anything goes and everything goes: Packing the courts, federalizing elections and creating the mechanism to insure Democrats win up and down ballot forever, ditto abolishing the electoral college, D.C. and Puerto Rico statehood, plus amnesty and reparations. 

It's funny how the meme that has been pushed for years is that America is or is rapidly becoming a majority liberal-left country. But if that were really the case they wouldn't need to steal elections, give amnesty and Democrat voter registration to millions of illiterate third world peasants. destroy our governmental institutions and push through massive changes that guarantee they control the whole shooting match forever. Yet that's exactly what they're doing. Meh, it's an insurance policy, right? 

And here we are: an overthrown government, a propaganda and educational system that indoctrinates and brainwashes, a corporate sector acting as enforcers to coerce compliance with the regime or ruin the lives of those who refuse, media platforms who readily censor any voices of dissent and opposition, a law enforcement and intelligence service that considers anyone who dissents a threat to national security and order, "vaccine passports" (!!!) and the demonization of an entire segment of the population (which is still the majority) as "enemies of the people."

George Washington warned Americans of this happening in his Farewell Address in 1796.  He said, "One method of assault may be to effect, in the forms of the Constitution, alterations which will impair the energy of the system, and thus to undermine what cannot be directly overthrown."  This was true in Nazi Germany, and it is true in America today.  The Nazi Party couldn't win a de facto majority through elections, so the Nazis passed a bill to seize power.  The Democrat Party can't win a de facto majority through elections, so they propose H.R. 1 and packing the Supreme Court.

Frederick Douglass once said, "The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."  We better tap into vast stores of endurance, because if not, we might as well say, "Heil the Democrat Party."

How do you say "it's deja-vu all over again" in German? Have a nice weekend.
