“Biden is not well. Everyone knows this even those who support him…the difference is they don’t care and that’s the most frightening aspect of this situation.” — Edward Dowd
They’re kidding, right? That “Joe Biden” is capable of being president? Not just for another four-year term, but right here and now? This has got to be the most pitiful case of national gaslighting since 218-AD when the Romans installed 14-year-old Heliogabalus to front for their empire. Like “JB,” he reigned for four years (before the praetorian guard offed him). The Danish historian of ancient Rome, Barthold Niebuhr, said of him: “. . . [He] had nothing at all to make up for his vices, which are of such a kind that it is too disgusting even to allude to them.”

Dunno about you, but for the first time in a life lived through many decades of purportedly rational post-war Modernity, I’ve developed a sympathetic view of how come people in earlier eras resorted to burning witches. They are obdurate public nuisances. Their “magic” lately is the ability to provoke a mass formation psychosis, an actual “threat to our democracy” or, more precisely, to our republic.

That is a lovely turn of phrase, which I hope to remember.
Also, I observe that the downfall of The Republic began when we abandoned the practice of tar and feathers.
Trouble is, batshit crazy women are exactly what our country is sick of and done with.Hogwash.
The left will take whatever they can get to defeat the 'evil Trump', as he's been labeled (effectively, might I add, to mindless liberals dependent upon the system for everything from their daily psychological fix of 'news' to their monthly check to their other 'benefits'). Those on the left ought be angry as hell that the democrat establishment engaged a fraudulent primary when they knew FULL WELL they'd be replacing him. Frankly, in a normal world those centrists and center left would have steered right. In short, the democrat regime's own actions would have been defeating.
But this is not a normal world: It is one dominated by the DS establishment where we have effectively all been made pawns, especially card carrying, 'npc' democrats.
To assert that the left has steered right is total fantasy.
In fact, it's delusional.
The ‘Seneca Cliff’ episode of the ‘Coffee and a Mike’ podcast posted at kunstler.com is also a must listen.
Yes - but I do see signs that the Deep State’s interests and the Democratic Party’s interests are diverging. The Deep State will happily ride either horse, and Democrats who have had a good long run are starting to forget that.
I’m starting to believe the opposite. Seems the lies are in stone while truth flitters away.
“Cheap Fake” etc.
smh
They play multilevel chess with practically unlimited resources outside the boundaries of law, aligned with the aim of our enemies to replace our Constitution and keep the population subverted, with 100 years of experience in doing so.
democrats are useful idiots, with their ranks now being buoyed with foreign nationals at the behest of DS, and all the pieces in place to make the next plays. You can thank the real po(tu)s, you-know-who.
Again, fantasy...and delusion to believe that they have shifted right.
