“One of the definitions of sanity is the ability to tell real from unreal. Soon we’ll need a new definition.” — Alvin Toffler
Insurrections galore spark off all of a sudden, and 2023 was just born days ago! Want to know why? Because the business model of the global economy is broken and the supposed remedy for that is centralized control of populations and super-strict regulation of all their activities — that is, techno-tyranny (with Marxist characteristics, as the Chinese like to put it). Not everybody wants to ride that bus, and so an epic economic problem becomes an arduous political struggle, here and elsewhere in the world.
A great mob of many thousands went apeshit in Brazil over the weekend in that country’s weird, geographically isolated capital, Brasilia, a horror of 1960s-style Modernist city planning. They stormed the national congress and trashed the offices within to protest the fishy election of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva over the former incumbent Jair Bolsonaro. As in our own country, the quarrel was over the mysterious behavior of voting machines and the unwillingness of election officials or courts to verify the results. The New York Times offered a thumbnail of Mr. Bolsonaro, who is sitting out the current action in Florida:
"The resulting picture showed an elected leader, first as a congressman and then as president, who has built a narrative of fraudulent elections based on inaccuracies, out-of-context reports, circumstantial evidence, conspiracy theories and downright falsehoods — much like former President Donald J. Trump.”
Get it? There’s no way fraud could have happened, just like in our country. And Bolsonaro is another Trump. It explains everything. All complaints are “baseless,” “false,” and “conspiracy theories.” End-of-story…. Are these shopworn tropes maybe losing their mojo? And is The New York Times embarrassing itself, a little bit, to trot them out as if they are actually arguments against anything?
The truth is more that Mr. Lula is another Hugo Chavez, poised to wreck Brazil with a fresh attempt at nationalizing all enterprise, ramping up a Marxist police state, and inviting China to partner-up in the action, including new Chinese military bases in the western hemisphere — an interesting challenge to the Monroe Doctrine (if anyone remembers what it says). And so, Mr. Lula has arrested hundreds of protesters and declared a national emergency.
Don’t expect it to stop there. The protesters are asking the army to intervene, as Brazil’s constitution actually obligates them to do in election disputes. Also, unlike the USA, Brazil has plenty of prior experience with the army removing elected leaders. Sometimes, electing yourself into tyranny is not the best way to solve economic problems. For the moment, Mr. Lula borrows a page from the American Left’s playbook for destroying a society. It will matter a lot if he doesn’t get away with it. That’s why the US political Swamp, and its errand boys in the news media, look on the action in Brazil with alarm. Unlike the January 6 protest in Washington, the Brasilia mob represents a genuine insurrection aimed at overthrowing a communist seizure of power....
The leftists seem to be working from the same playbook.
The mockingbird reporting on Brasila has been execrable.
And some nations seem Hell-bent on starving their population like Sri Lanka.
Netherlands, for one - with what they’re doing to farmers
If you thought trying to control a corrupt state legislature was difficult, you then found about the central government.
When you thought that controlling that corrupt central government was even more difficult, the marshmallow-major looks want to create a world government. That, boys and girls (nope, those are the only two types of humans), is decades of magnitude more frightening than climate fear porn or COVID fear porn.
Hold on to those weapons & keep ‘em clean.
It has become apparent to many that our electoral and judicial systems have been completely replaced with something else.
There is no way to vote for change in that new system.
“Insurrection Anybody?”
Thanks, but need to take my kids to soccer practice this afternoon.
Maybe next time.
I'd estimate that 98% of all that Americans "know" is the result of a photograph, video, commentary or any combination of the three.
The ONLY people I know that actually READ with critical thinking skills are Bible reading Christians, entering an endeaverance intended to formulate our thoughts as we read and digest what we're reading.
THIS report is brand new imagery (being associated with Jan 6 ala TRUMP, again), because the democrat criminal enterprise is further being exposed and they are not going to go down without swinging.
They will not (imo) amass against us or start shooting . . . they'll shut down banking and communication before that.
MORE POWER IS EXERTED TYHROUGH THOSE ENTITIES THAN BULLETS . . . .cowards still need someone to actually do work for them.
Ypou don't expect THEM to actually work . . . . . . DO you ?
It sets off a wild series of events around the selection of a new vice-president — Barack or Michelle Obama?
Barack could never be VP because he is ineligible to become President again. So, it would have to be Moose.
There are two .U.S constitutional amendments - 12th and 22nd - which together deal with the issue of election of a President & VP.
The 22nd amendment says no person can be elected more than twice as president.
The 12th amendment says no one who is ineligible to become president can be elected as vice-president. Thus, the same would hold true for the selection of a VP who is ineligible to be president.
Other than that, I enjoyed the blog. 🙂
Yes. See Tagline.
Whatever is most damaging to the United States is what they will try to do.
But I honestly do not believe Joe will step down voluntarily. The big guy needs his position to continue his grift.
Aren’t insurrections supposed to have weapons, ordinance, killing people and breaking things?
Like BLM?

Yep, the Georgy Soros/WEF playbook. Happening all over the world.
Benedict Biden’s theft of classified Federal documents is a very SERIOUS CRIME, because unlike with Trump, the VP does NOT have the power to declassify, only the POTUS! He should be IMMEDIATELY IMPEACHED!
Exactly, and with the CCP as the facilitator.
