October Surprise

“Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’s brand-new VP pick, is a fanatical far-left lunatic wearing the friendly armor of hapless, bloated oaf from the sticks” — Peachy Keenan.

“Normally, Western politics gives us actors who are trying to play the role of politicians. Walz is like an actor who is trying to play the role of an actor trying to play the role of a politician. Almost everything about him is just a few degrees off-centre. He’s like what would happen if you endowed Chat GPT with a human body and sent it off to campaign for political office.” —Eugyppius on Substack.

October Surprise “Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’s brand-new VP pick, is a fanatical far-left lunatic wearing the friendly armor of hapless, bloated oaf from the sticks” — Peachy Keenan

James Howard Kunstler Oct 04, 2024 “Normally, Western politics gives us actors who are trying to play the role of politicians. Walz is like an actor who is trying to play the role of an actor trying to play the role of a politician. Almost everything about him is just a few degrees off-centre. He’s like what would happen if you endowed Chat GPT with a human body and sent it off to campaign for political office.” —Eugyppius on Substack

Tuesday night’s veep palaver could be the last time you see the frightened animal known as Tim Walz for the duration of the campaign. He’s famous for his wild body language — jumping around on stage, flapping his arms — but this time the action was all concentrated in his face. You saw his eyes bug out, dart left and right, as if something fierce was coming at him (it was), and more than a few times, his head jerked around sideways so hard you wondered if it might do a whole three-sixty. His mouth, a pain-inflected frown in repose, turned down so deeply it looked like he had sashweights hanging from the corners. Altogether, his face said more than the embarrassing mishmash of mangled English that came out of it. I expect to see a few Tim Walz masks on the little goblins begging for Kit-kat bars the night of October 31.

That same obvious void of conviction you see on Tim Walz’s labile face is on display with the feds’ response to mass tragedy in the Appalachian hurricane zone. It was a point in my book, The Long Emergency, that our national government would become increasingly impotent, ineffectual, and incompetent as conditions worsened — and now here it is. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), could not bestir itself to aid stricken citizens around the flood-ravaged region in North Carolina and Tennessee. Sec’y Mayorkas of Homeland Security said that FEMA was out of money which, in this season of political weirdness, is especially weird, seeing as how the nation’s fiscal year began Oct 1, and Congress’s continuing resolution for funding US agencies should assure that FEMA’s checkbook is full. What was up with that?

Well, everybody and his uncle has heard by now that FEMA (and many other agencies under Mayorkas’s DHS) commits tons of money to pamper the millions of mutts from foreign lands sneaking over the US border, with lots of assistance from NGO cut-outs funded by your tax dollars, who marshal groups of aliens south-of-the-border for the crossing, and then fly or bus them around our country for the special purpose of distributing them in swing voting districts to then coordinate with other NGOs devoted to registering non-citizens to vote in order to “harvest” their ballots. Quite an operation. Completely lawless and corrupt. And official!

So, no aid for you, baskets of deplorables, shivering in the dark in your hills and hollows of Appalachia, your houses splintered, scant chattels lost, and your beloved hound-dogs carried away in the roaring torrents. The money that might have helped you begin to recover from the complete devastation of your lives is paying for Guatemalans to bunk in the Roosevelt Hotel and order-in quesadillas and churros, and refill their government-issued debit cards so they can afford a few nice things as they wait for mysterious others to cast ballots in their names.

This is the work of your Democratic Party, the party of chaos, party of the Woke mentally ill, party of wrecking the country, of America’s end times. And you’re going to vote for more of it? Of course not. And despite the attempts to knock him out of the arena with scores of utter bulls[**]t lawfare cases, and efforts to shoot him dead, Mr. Trump keeps coming at them, an implacable, relentless force, the true Golden Golem conjured up by their catamite news media. Their inability to destroy him has wrecked their minds.

One surprising October surprise is advanced by whistleblower Mike McCormick on Substack (Midnight in the Laptop of Good and Evil). Mr. McCormick was White House stenographer under Presidents Bush II, Obama, and Trump. His job was to transcribe meetings, speeches, and interactions between major political figures. He was the proverbial fly-on-the-wall for years and years. He has seen and heard a lot and still hears a lot from people who know a lot. He says the Obama-Biden-Harris faction of the Deep State blob is anti-Israel and that Israel understands what this means. He says that Benjamin Netanyahu has told “Joe Biden” (or, let’s say, told errand-boys Tony Blinken and Jake Sullivan) that if the blob engineers a phony victory for Kamala Harris, he will blow up the oil fields in Iran and the anti-Israel Democrats will have to pick up the pieces.....SNIP

No aid for you Appalachian deplorables. The aid is going to your replacements.

I don’t see how I can avoid punching anyone who would vote for Harris. I’ll just stay home until Election Day.

Riveting and darkly funny article. I just hope it is true that Bibi threatened the blob.

This is how arrogant the deep-state/blob/they are.
After 9/11 they said oh yeah, we will put a gay, muslim, communist in the White House... Twice,
oh yeah we will double-down and make people cheer putting boys in a girls locker room,
oh yeah well hold my beer and watch this... we will put the Taliban back in power with Billions of direct and in-direct money and sophisticated gear (Night-vision, comms, etc) after giving Iran billions...
well check this out... we will put a senile, pedophile, career, dip-shit in the White House with 99% of Repubs and Dems supporting him all the while making it obvious he’s braindead...
well, well, well how can we top that... Kamal-toe and triple, dip-shit Walz...
Icing on Cake... no one will do anything but grant unlimited power and a Trillion every 100 days...
THEY ARE WINNING

If Israel indeed blew up Iran’s oilfields, I wonder how long they might end up offline, and what impacts that would have for the USA and the world?

From the article: “...He’s like what would happen if you endowed Chat GPT with a human body and sent it off to campaign for political office.”

I am quite sure ChatGPT would do a much better, and more coherent, job!

It is an opportunity to take away Iran’s ability to finance terrorism.

A strong case of self hate for being white causes that D.C. is the proving ground for it.

The “October Surprise” already happened. Now it has to be fed and nourished for another few weeks. What’s the October Surprise you might ask? It is CNN going after Harris and Walz. This indicates something that many of us are not taking into consideration.

The “Deep State” is afraid of a full leftist takeover of government. When leftists win, (pick a revolution) the first thing they do is kill their purported allies. I don’t think the Deep State was prepared to have this happen as quickly as it did. Cloward-Piven is doing better than expected, the 45 Goals of Communism is nearly complete, and an incompetent DEI selected Marxist Democrat, not nominated by the voting public and a Marxist VP who’s competency is even worse are running for the highest office in the land.

The Deep State got to CNN. They are usually 100% aligned with MSNBC and other leftwing media outlets. Not this time. Same goes with the Washington Compost. They are also hitting Harris/Walz.

Harris and Walz are both dyed-in-the-wool, doctrinaire, hardcore communists.

Harris comes by it honestly, as a red-diaper baby daughter of a hardcore communist theorist who was installed, merit-free, in a communist econ department at a communist university.

Walz is a chronic-loser/oddball/strange background/China-communism loving-creep/hangs out with kids for no good reason.

Walz's bona fides include his flower-child/useful idiot/power-to-the-people misguided loser wife.

Together their candidacy is significant because it is SO in-your-face communist.

Like Odungo's.

Biden was just a placeholder/we-owe-the-old-guard-his-turn POTUS.

From now I would expect nothing but hardcore communist candidates from the Rat party.

No more illusions.
