War is Peace, Ignorance is Strength, and Biden is President.
In George Orwell’s masterpiece 1984, he said, “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
To guide you along this path, I bring to your attention implausible things you are expected to believe this week.
Things that are not graft. Outrageously generous book deals to present and former officials.
The Obamas’ $65 million book advances still lead the way to the most lavish, though the notion that even Democrat politicians’ relatives, like Chelsea Clinton, would offer ghostwritten pap worth anything is something you just have to believe.
Generous speaking fees.
The $25 million the Clintons garnered for just six months of speeches in 2014 and 2015, you must regard not as bribes for access and influence, but as well-earned compensation for minutes worth of pearls of wisdom. Not just former presidents and would-be presidents are the recipients of such largesse. Janet Yellen, the Biden pick for Secretary of the Treasury, for example, raked in $7.2 million in speaking fees from Wall Street and large corporations like Citi, Goldman Sachs, Google, City National Bank, UBS, Citadel LLC, Barclays, and Credit Suisse. The Great Iggy (an online friend) must be in error when he questions these fees:
These fees are for what? Some pointless stupid boilerplate speech that does not and cannot, in itself, contain anything of value to the payers. So its value is in the form of access and influence only; which used to be called graft and influence peddling.
Charitable Shakedowns.
You must ignore the suggestion that plea bargains in which the government gives a settlement payment to a bureaucrat’s favorite nonprofit constitutes anything unethical. Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions halted this practice.

Power is not leaving you alone. Power is not searching for truth. Power is forcing you to do what you most despise and saying the most obvious lies.
You Will Be Made to Believe Implausible Things Like Biden Winning the 2020 Election
Like spending trillions and trillions of dollars won’t lead to inflation?
Come on 2022...I hope the backlash against the Sphincter with feet and his entire party of thugs is swift and overwhelming.
I also hope Trump’s judges do their job overturning these many edicts.
We’ll see.
While I will refuse to believe or kow-tow, it matters little...its just me, a tiny smutz. They don’t care.
Like kale tastes good? Like CBD oil is a cure all?

1984 was published in 1949 35 years before doomsday. Dread to think what he would forecast now about 2056!
See 18.

We’ve all been there - either at a lecture, a conference, even a church service where we wouldn’t be able to even repeat anything we just heard. Nor would the “speaker” be able to tell you!!!!!
