The Morning Report - 4/19/21 [J.J. Sefton]
— Ace Open Blog



Good morning kids. Monday and the start of a new week but the same old story. Maxine "Mikvah" Waters, among the most corrupt, venal, manipulative, power-mad degenerates to ever hold office in the nation formerly known as the United States (and that's saying something considering the rap sheets of her cohorts in the Capitol), has now openly called, not for a civil war, but for a pogrom. A civil war implies that there are two sides that are both capable of and free to use violence against their rivals to achieve dominance. In terms of both temperament as well as the realpolitik, I do not think our side comes close to that. We may be seething with rage but I truly believe that most of us, the bravado and bluster aside, abhor violence, certainly to the level of the use of deadly force. 


Yet that said, that situation is not going to last forever. The Enemy have banked on it for decades, but the way things stand, with the nation on a knife edge of going down the shitter when the economy collapses, as it no doubt is bound to happen, all bets will be well and truly off. Hence, their racing pell mell to seize absolute control over all avenues of communication, our ability to defend ourselves via the 2A, the electoral process and law enforcement and national security. Actually, internal security since this junta could care fuck all if the Chi-Coms, Farsis and every other communist or Islamic regime runs wild all over the Risk board. Now psycho quack Fauci, after being pantsed in Congress by Jim Jordan and Rand Paul, has identified guns as the existential crisis that is threatening us; "us" meaning the regime in DC. So with every means of coercion being brought to bear on us, a citizenry of internal exiles in our own nation, via corrupt governmental agencies in the form of the FBI, DOJ and local police departments as well as the unofficial black-clad brownshirts of BLaM-tifa, I ask where is this civil war everyone is talking about? Has the enemy suffered a literal or even a figurative bloody nose? Not in the slightest, and the filthy, shambling toxic waste dump that is Maxine Waters is now openly baying for our blood to run in the streets if Derek Chauvin is not found guilty. 


"We’re looking for a guilty verdict. We’re looking for a guilty verdict. And we’re looking to see if all of this [inaudible] that took place and has been taking place after they saw what happened to George Floyd,” Waters said. "If nothing does not happen, then we know, that we’ve got to not only stay in the street, but we’ve got to fight for justice, but I am very hopefully and I hope that we’re going to get a verdict that will say guilty, guilty, guilty. And if we don’t, we cannot go away.”


When asked about what activists should do if Chauvin is not convicted, Waters said that they must "stay on the street.”


"And we’ve got to get more active. [We’ve] got to get more confrontational,” she said. "[We’ve] got to make sure that they know we mean business.” 


Kind of interesting that in the wake of the stolen election, culminating in the events of January 6th, the only acts of violence were committed by their side, posing as Trump supporters, to create some sort of Reichstag Fire incident. To the extent that all sorts of wildly anti-Constitutional power-grabs are a red pubic hair's breadth from being enacted, mostly on the pretext of preventing "our sacred democracy" (puke) from ever being threatened again, in that regard it worked. And here we are, a vast group of people demonized, otherized and blood-libeled as racially impure and irredeemably evil who must be eradicated from the public discourse, or perhaps simply eradicated. As I said, that's not what a civil war looks like. It's what a pogrom looks like.

47 I had not read the particulars of the street  thug Daunt  Wright  that Horowitz lays out in his link. Worse than I imagined but not surprised. He deserved to be shot, not tasered. Seem like the left picks the worst, thuggish brutes they  can find to stir up the mobs who are often live the same lifestyle (and then complain they have so many problems with the police.) Then they get off shoving their righteous anger it in everybody's  face, daring somebody to call them out on the BS, which no public official dares to do anymore.  This country is on a sick trajectory. You can think of it as Obama's legacy.

63 Chauvin is going down, because the jury members will never live in peace again in Minnesota (and most other places) if he does not.  This trial is an attempt to color this coming conviction in law, but the law matters not at all.  The Antifa/BLM mob has already judged him.  He might get off on appeal, years from now.

There is a pattern of state level GOPs rewarding people from areas who do not vote GOP with leadership.   The same pattern applies at the national level.    Once you accept the GOP/CoC interaction is one designed to hamstring the conservatives from ANY functional political representation at all it makes sense.


From a pure game theory standpoint there is a 13% population that could join with a 28-32% population if it could get over its addiction to "government as daddy" that could safeguard America forever.


Which is why at the end of the day the race card has been thrown so hard the last 20 years.

76 "Pandemic" should be chosen by Time as "Word of the Year." But they'd never give up the scam like that. Use -- or abuse -- of the word has shifted seamlessly into whatever other phantom fear the Ruling Class wishes to wield for power and control. They look across the landscape and see nothing but a Crisis-Into-Opportunity harvest. With the likes of Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell as "leaders," and a sheepish citizenry mewling its compliance to every edict, why not?

Yet that said, that situation is not going to last forever. The Enemy have banked on it for decades, but the way things stand, with the nation on a knife edge of going down the shitter when the economy collapses, as it no doubt is bound to happen, all bets will be well and truly off. Hence, their racing pell mell to seize absolute control over all avenues of communication, our ability to defend ourselves via the 2A, the electoral process and law enforcement and national security.
The first civil war wasn't really a civil war by strict definition. It was a failed war of independence. If we had lost the Revolutionary War, it wouldn't have been called a British civil war, but a failed colonial rebellion. The South never wanted to take over and seize the Union government, they wanted their own.

That nuance is important given the excerpt quoted above. Civil wars of the traditional type - massed divisions, materiel, command, battles, etc. - require territory. The opposition doesn't have territory (well, not contiguous territory). It is all blended and in suspension together. That means any new conflict will not be a traditional conflict. It will be a guerrilla conflict. It will have to be that way because there is no other real option for the movement of men, supplies and command because of the lack of territorial blocs and mutual loyalty. It will be more like a (much) more violent version of the Irish Troubles than a typical war. There won't be a front and there won't be a theater to be found. Just constant bloody skirmishing along the interfaces between the two groups, wherever they end up scattered throughout the continent.

157 I asked Pooky yesterday what the reason behind this sudden rise in mass shootings was. He said, "Anarchy." People feel trapped financially because of the lockdowns and the force to keep them in check, the police, has been gutted. And thanks to the agitation machine known as our media, people are well aware that there's next to nothing stopping them from obtaining the means of violence and committing violence, usually to enrich themselves. Which is.... anarchy.

It asks the question in the headline and then asks again, this time with more words, but no answer.

If they really want to know, the editors should become regular attendees at a Protestant Church that still teaches on sin, evil and God's Grace.   Sadly, and that is a major reason why there is no discernment nor wisdom in public is because few members of the clergy either don't know the Gospel or are afraid to teach it.

Posted by: Huck Follywood, registered independent at April 19, 2021 08:11 AM (6M/iC)
There is no such thing anymore. Yeats called it (poetically, of course, but also accurately) just over a hundred years ago. The gyre widened indeed, and the center did not hold. The center doesn't exist anymore, and thus there is no such thing as a centrist. The center as we used to discuss it (and still do, to a point) implies a spectrum of belief. There is no spectrum anymore. There is merely a binary now. You can call it whatever you want. For my money, the binary is "communist" and "anticommunist" with the old center being the merely noncommunist.

The Left would have a different interpretation. For them it would be "progressive" and "regressive" and "nonprogressive." But regardless of your bent, the "center" as such no longer exists. The time has come to choose. You can always choose to not choose, of course, but that leaves you nowhere. You will simply be pulled by the currents of those who chose to choose. Your friend - a former centrist - has chosen anticommunism. Good for him.

True. It also highlights why individual states will need to develop and stockpile their own WMD and individual delivery systems.

They already know. They don't need a sermon or a political essay to explain it. They know it deep in their bones just like everyone else does. We are at the point in the progression now where everyone is lying and everyone knows everyone is lying but they won't say it because they don't want to acknowledge the cowardice, unjust motives and deep evil of the entire structure.

Next comes acknowledging it in cagey terms but only to each other. Then comes the increasing speed of collapse, followed by harsh honesty about what they're doing (and have been doing). Then the new system gets born out of the ashes of the old. Plenty of tyranny, blood, starvation and despair awaits us on the road between here and there, though.

183 Good interview with Richard Werner on how economic success depends on small banks making local loans to small business, to grow productivity.  (we always hear about small business in USA being key) ... But policy is now top down, and policy is pushing small banks out and growing BigBank ... and now even government gets into making loans.  (and money flows to them as "trusted" ... )

lots of important details covered, to me it is more indication of the NWO plans to suffocate small business (obvious with the shut downs, but not only that).  Cued to part about small business and productivity being key, and local control.

Are you talking about the Republican Senate that held hours and hours of Russiagate investigations even though the members with security clearances were aware from the start that it was all false?

Or the Republican politicians like Cruz who talk about security and freedom and illegals and jobs and honest and fair elections but who stood with the Chamber of Commerce when Trump wanted tariffs on Mexico, or who didn't stand up and formally say "I think something is fishy with this election and call for an investigation" in order to immediately halt Republican-controlled Senate business and put the election fraud under the microscope?

Y'know how ice ages tend to start? Winters that are slightly longer, and springs that are slightly cooler and slightly wetter than normal. This is the second year in a row of that pattern here where I live. Two years doesn't make a patterns, of course, but man a mini ice age is an existential fear in a way a warming cycle isn't. In a warming cycle, you get weird patterns at desert edges but otherwise you get more arable land and easier survival (to a point, of course). The opposite, though, collapses your arable land and your production on what's left courtesy of a shorter growing season...

This is wrong on so many levels.  If I squint real hard, I can see how the State might close churches for a health emergency, if they are doing the same thing for businesses, restaurants and such.  But no way, no how does the State get to dictate what happens within a worship service.  They have no authority to ban the common recitation of the Lord's Prayer.  They have no authority to ban singing.  They have no authority to decide what can or cannot comprise a religious service.

The gunshot was the first shot of the American Revolution and the start of the war. It was called the "shot heard around the world" No one is actually sure who fired the first shot or if it was an American or British soldier

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world.

The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.

On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We set today a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

Spirit, that made those heroes dare
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.

China moving in after the US pulls out is a brilliant idea for the Chinese globopolitics.
Think the US moving into Vietnam after the French pulled out.  
That was a clear signal that the Old Order was dead and that there was a New Big Daddy in town.  There's no better way to announce that there's a New Global Sheriff and his name is China.
And don't think that the Chinese are gonna have any difficulty like the US in Vietnam or Afghanistan.  The Chinese are the most nationalistic, racist dickweeds on the planet.  No protesting this war att home.  This'll simply be the Uighar situation writ large - a war of extermination.  They can flood the country with literally millions of soldiers and wipe out the opposition town by town, cave by cave, mountain by mountain.
After that look for alliances to shift gravity toward China and away from the US.

In my neck of the woods, mask requirements are becoming more relaxed. Only the big chain stores - no doubt at the behest of frightened lawyers - have signs at the door requiring masks. But in places like Lowe's and Home Depot, a hefty proportion of shoppers aren't wearing. Almost none of the independent stores have them. Some few have signs "Please wear a mask".

My church has a 7:00 AM Mass - the one I attend - for "at risk" parishoners, where masks are required. None of the other four Sunday Masses requires them.

They won't fall for the indebtedness scheme the Chinese have carried out on idiot countries in Africa and South America. They don't care, and in the end they will eat the Chinese no matter how many troops they try to amass. Ask the Russian's who are 10 times more brutal and determined. We will keep an eye on things and make sure no additional regional threats build up. Don't forget, we've been there long enough to make our own alliances and networks.

We might have been able to salvage things in 2008 but that didn't turn out good for us, so Trump was our last shot and that's was it.

Things  need to break and break bad before they can even conceivably be put back into order.

China already has a sizable mining operation in Afghanistan, made possible by our military presence.

So the US tax payer is providing security for China to make bank on rare-earths.

So if the US leaves China will be swooping in to fill the void left by the US military.

Which is fine be me since the US tax payer isn't benefiting from rare earth mining.

YMMV.

The real irony is that Brodd did a terrible job testifying on Chauvin's behalf.  The George Floyd supporters should have been thanking Brodd, instead of trashing his (former) house.

321 Idea: make the vaccine passport a precondition for gun licenses and carry permits.
I have never seen a government that is so destructive, so tyrannical and so contemptuous of its citizens, delighting in destroying everything and hurting as many people as possible.

But it is from the heart of pure compassion and love that seeks to jam each and every person with an experimental "vaccine" that is not a vaccine and has no material benefit, but unknown costs.

A government that hates you that much is going to kill you sooner or later, it is folly to beg them for permission to a Right that the Creator God already gave you.     The disarming of America is in perfect harmony of forcing you to take a "vaccine" that may kill you.

I know that there are a lot of idiots here who trust the government completely in the sense that they will gladly seek out a "vaccine".   These same people will fight to be the first to get in the boxcars heading off to the Happy Happy Fun FEMA Camp that they are building under the guise of "Immigrant Shelters".

I was at a racetrack outside of Charlotte on Saturday.  No guns, coolers, beer, etc. allowed.  Pretty much every group had a cooler, half the folks were drinking beer, and I'm certain at least half had a firearm on them.

There were at least 1000 people there sitting on packed bleachers and grass hills surrounding the track, and I counted six masks all day.

Yes, make vaccine passports a precondition for having a gun.  That's bound to work.

Well, we'll see.
I don't see China caring one bit about their little "complex tribal society, with it's shifting ties, loyalties, traditions and alliances".  If you're willing to kill enough people, and they are, all that goes away.  Their ROE will not be anything like the US or even Russia.
Two, if they choose to go in, which I believe they will, they won't lose face by losing for 20 years.  There'll be no better demonstration of the New Big Daddy in clearing things up and winning within 2-3 years.
Yes, yes, I'm sure the bought and paid for Xiden administration will definitely use our "our own alliances and networks. That will serve us well in the future" to oppose China.  What was I thinking?
