Now Afghanistan Invades Us

First the globalists invaded Afghanistan — now they want to use this as an excuse to have Afghanistan invade us. As journalist Spencer Ackerman (oxymoronically identified as a "national security reporter”) put it recently, he wants the Biden administration to increase Temporary Protected Status access and admit Afghan "refugees by the millions.”

Ecosexuality

This from E. Calvin Beisner

Ever heard of "ecosexuality"?

What does it mean? Is it Biblical? Is it even sensible? How should we respond to it?

Ecosexuality and "Marrying" the Earth; It's Not Your Grandparent's Wedding

Tim adds:

A pervert is someone who grossly abuses their sexuality. This certainly qualifies these people as sick perverts. EVERYTHING now devolves to sex with the Left.

Two questions: 1.how are the happy couple going to find a ring big enough and 2.how is the groom going to carry that big fat bride over the threshold?

Biden Threatens Governors While Americans Remain Trappped in War Zone

Timothy Birdnow

I caught Pretender Biden's news conference yesterday. It was an utter disgrace.

Biden talked about the vaccine and suggested local schools openly defy the laws of their states and force masks on little children. He promised to aid any rebels with Federal money and legal support.

In short, he called for a rejection of the rule of law - and this from the man sworn to uphold the law.

Then, in the midst of the chaos in Afghanistan, he turned and walked away amid shouts of questions. Not one single word about what his policies have caused!

I hope everyone is happy who voted for Joe Biden.

Meanwhile the State Department is telling Americans in Afghanistan they are on their own, that they have to find their own way to the airport to escape.

So much for the old American policy of "nobody gets left behind". Now it's "every man for himself!" with the battle cry "run away!" Monty Python couldn't have made up what we are seeing in Afghanistan. It would be funny except these are real people in real peril.

But Biden is more concerned with forcing kids into masks against against the wishes of state governments and parents.

Oh, and Biden is now claiming he was "handcuffed" by the Trump agreement. As Mr. Trump himself pointed out, the agreement always was based on conditions on the ground and he himself had suspended it when the Taliban violated some of the terms. But more importantly Biden has simply torn up Trump policies he didn't like - such as the deal where people seeking refugee status had to stay in Mexico and apply there. He has had no respect whatstoever for Trump policy and even has ignored Court orders when it has suited him. But now he was "handcuffed" by Trump!

This is a disaster entirely of Mr. Biden's making. And Biden is not even the legitimate President.

What's it going to take for Americans to wake up? Especially you labor Democrats; what must happen before the security of your country, your homes, and your livelihoods overshadows your pact with the Democrats?

In the end you are going to wonder what happened. Well, some of us have known all along.

Monumental Ignorance

Fay Voshell

Sometimes I am without words. Almost. It is the failure to understand the world view of any given country that has paralyzed the administration, committed as it is to a one size fits all woke ideology. Mr. Price's exhortations do not even compute with the Taliban's leaders. I notice he does not say a word about the trapped Americans or former Afghani allies whose lives are now forfeit.


Our State Department's spokesman Ned Price called for "an immediate cessation of all hostilities and the establishment, through inclusive negotiations, of a new government that is united, inclusive and representative – including with the full, equal and meaningful participation of women.”

Questioning The Obligation To Evacuate

James Doogue

People in Afghanistan who worked alongside the US and other allied troops, did so because they didn't want to live under Taliban rule. They were also paid well in a country where 70% of the population live in poverty.

The logic goes that the US and other allied countries now owe those workers and their family members an obligation to accept them as refugees.

Let's be clear, their lives aren't in danger because they worked with Americans, Australians or whoever. They are in danger because the Taliban are brutal and they chose to fight against them.

Anyone in Afghanistan who fought against the Taliban are in danger, including more than 300,000 Afghan military troops. They too technically fought alongside and assisted the US and other allied troops, they just weren't paid as well for their services.

Should all those troops and their families be airlifted out of Afghanistan and relocated into Western countries? Their lives are just as much at risk.

If the West continued to take anyone who has the capacity to cross our borders we will not help the long term cause of the country being fled, nor their the West.

- There is no incentive for people to remain in their own country and fight for a better future.

- The people who are usually able to flee are the wealthier, better educated, better resourced citizens. The very people that country needs to stay and fight for a better future.

- We have seen the West hasn't benefited from this mass movement of people from war torn areas. The Islamist terrorists themselves have used the 'refugee' status to gain entry into the West from which they have carried out terrorist attacks and radicalised Muslim youth.

We should question the media narrative from the Left and Right, that there is an automatic obligation to evacuate anyone who was in the paid employ of our military and embassies while we were in Afghanistan helping the locals fight the brutal Taliban.

The West has already paid the price for that decision economically, and with the lives of troops killed and injured.

Taming the American Elephant

Timothy Birdnow

In Southeast Asia Elephants are used as beasts of burden, and there is a thriving market for strong bull elephants. Elephant hunters capture them, then the beast  has to be tamed. This taming is accomplished by caging the poor creature, then poking it incessantly with sticks; the elephant is not whipped or seriously hurt. The elephant tamer irritates the beast until it submits to his will.

Of all the beasts on the world stage the United States is by far the largest and most lumbering. Very like an elephant, America is a land of great beasts with power but without the will to use that strength.

And like those southeast Asian elephants, America has been captured by tamers, those who seek to force the people of this country to bend to their will.

The coalition of pokers are myriad and include the Islamists, the big corporations, the Chinese.

But ultimately they are those in our own Ruling Class. The politicos, the media, the bureaucrats and plutocrats. The tech wizards and entertainment witches. The educrats and industrialists. The national security appratus.

In short, the very people that President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned us against in his famous farewell address.

What we have been treated to over the last decade has been an endless session of stick poking by our enemies. This includes the BLM rioting, the open border policies of Obama and now Biden, the war on energy by Obama and Biden (which makes it more expensive), the unwillingness to actually fight to win wars, the baseless attacks on President Trump and his double impeachment, the war on so-called "domestic terrorism" which we know is a war on dissidents, the suppression of information on Facebook at Twitter and the rest, and the now seemingly endless Covid lockdowns and attempts to compel everyone to get the vaccine or be cast out.

America has been poked, and poked, and poked. It worked too, as Donald Trump is no longer in office. Not just a few of the people who voted for Joe Biden did so because they wanted to "get back to normal". What they failed to understand is there is no normal and never will be again; this is an attempt by Globalists and socialists to take power by bringing the United States down. Our enemies abroad - primarily China - are salivating at the prospect of America pulled down to grovel hat in hand to foreign powers. Well, we have; Joe Biden, after killing the oil and gas industry in the U.S., has gone to OPEC begging for an increase in oil production. And of course the Biden Junta also begged the Taliban to give them some time before starting the blood bath so as to avoid putting Mr. Biden in political peril.

But all of these things are the sticks of the tamers. These are not isolated incidents. The enemies of America have thought carefully about how to break our will.

It's a psy-op. Lock us up inside our homes, isolate us, force us into msks in public. Take away our restaurants and bars and high school football games and concerts. (And have our professional athletes refuse to stand for our national anthem.)  Make America witness the utter failure of 20 years of blood and treasure in Afghanistan, so we despair. Make prices rise and keep us out of work with the lure of endless unemployment so we don't have money and don't have the pride of honest labor. Shut down our churches. Divide us based on race, and on political beliefs. Burn our cities and tell us nothing can be done.

Despoil our children. Turn our boys into girls and tell the parents they can't stop them from doing it.

And open our borders to a tidal wave of aliens, our replacement citizens.

Then sneer at us for our impotence.

Every step of the way we are being forced to our knees and eventually we will submit.

The public turned against Richard Nixon during the Watergate hearings not so much because they were horrified by the third rate burglary done by some obscure people in the Administration but because the media refused to let it go. People just wanted it to go away. Ditto Donald Trump; a lot of people voted against Trump just to end the drumbeat. (Granted, he still won but was cheated.)

I suspect all of the chaos was planned by the Ruling Class to break our collective will.

What do these people do at Davos, at Renaissance Weekend, etc.? They aren't just drinking martinis, I assure you.

If this is not a psy-op it has all the trappings of one. I don't believe in a series of coincidences, not on the world stage like this.

Stage is the operative word. We've been gaslighted.

Barack Obama promised to fundamentally change America. Before Obama the Universities and the media had been seeking such a champion. We are changing, morphing into a pachyderm every day.

In the end we'll be parading with Ringling Brothers.

Top Down, Bottom Up, Inside Out

Timothy Birdnow

Van Jones, Obama's Green Jobs Czar and an unrepentant Marxist, said at a NOW campaign event how his cadre planned on resetting America:

"Our governing move is three things — top down, bottom up, and inside out. We need to work on the middle and the bottom."

Look at what Mr. Biden has accomplished since taking office. He has spent us into bankruptcy, wrecked our energy industry and made us once again dependent on foreign oil, has opened the border to vast hordes of aliens, has set us at each-other's throats, has promised to enslave us to the masks and the covid restrictions into the forseeable future and is killing all holidays and school events, and now has destroyed twenty years of effort and sacrifice in Afghanistan to break our national will and lead us to despair.

Top down.

Joining him are the throng of scared rabbit businesses and the internationalists like Facebook or Microsoft.

And we have BLM, Antifa, and a host of others lighting our street on fire. Oh, and the invasion of aliens.

Bottom up.

I think inside out is pretty clear as well. Our most cherished institutions are eaten our from within. Look at things like the Boy Scouts, an organization that no longer exists (it's now called the Scouts and is not in the least the organization it once was). Look at what is happening in the churches these days. CRT and social justice are rotting out our institutions. Our schools now openly defy parents and get away with it. They are helping very young children undergo sex change procedures, and are trying to vaccinate children against their parent's wished.

Inside out.

This is a revolution by the top. The collapse in Afghanistan is one more tool in their war against the U.S., in their psy-op to fundamentally transform this country and to implement the Great Reset.

Do not make the mistake of believing Biden is just a befuddled old man incapable of making good decisions. They want you to believe that. If needed they can replace him via the 25th amendment and run Kamala Harris as an incumbent in the next election. Biden is there to take the fall for some very unpopular policies.

He and the rest know it too which is why they started that "right-wing terrorism" bullsquirt early on, and why they are pushing this fake "insurrection" commission now; they need to be able to completely muzzle the opposition, which is what this is intended to do. They are going to run hog wild for a year then pull in their horns. If Biden is looking to drag the Democrats down with him they will replace him. But the cadre running the junta will remain present and in charge.

This must have been what it was like when the Nazis were rising. I must say I do not like it one bit.

McCarthy and the Modern Democrats

Doug Thurnburn

I used to say Sen. Joseph McCarthy, being an alcoholic, made a lot of false accusations, because that is among the many abuses in which alcoholics engage. But around every set of lies, there is usually a kernel of truth.

Last year, I began pondering the possibility there might have been more than a kernel. After all, while alcoholics inflate their egos by maligning and abusing others, they also take risks others won't take. Loads of war heroes have been alcoholics. The man I view as the true founder of our formerly great nation, Thomas Paine, was a full-on alcoholic. Ayn Rand, who essentially founded the libertarian movement, was an amphetamine addict (explaining her screwy private life and cult of personality, but also the fact she risked writing a novel that took ten years of her life). There have been few revolutionary changes in music, ever, that were not made by an alcohol/ other psychoactive drug addict. Addicts take chances other don't because, aside from abusing others, being extraordinarily successful is a great way to inflate the ego. So they take risks.

I began pondering the inexplicable thinking and policy proposals by Democrats. Conveniently, along came Hunter's laptop. He's pretty fucking clearly compromised. And if he is compromised, so is Joe.

And then came the first seven months of Joe. We have seen open borders, an attack on our energy industry while encouraging foreign foes and not-so-friendly "friends" to take up the slack (after all, their production facilities don't produce "Greenhouse Gases"), setting up the monetary system for complete failure, CRT in schools. More of the dumbing down of Americans. Everything to weaken us internally, morally and ethically; everything to divide us, making us easier to conquer. Nothing to strengthen or unite.

And now, Afghanistan. No other country will ever trust us, at least for the foreseeable future. It cannot be an "accident." They had to know what would happen. We have been eviscerated internally and, now, externally.

Cui bono? The CCP.

Back to McCarthy. Recently, I began reading M. Stanton Evans "Blacklisted by History: The Untold Story of Senator Joe McCarthy and His Fight Against America's Enemies". The first 30 pages says it all: the Soviets had spies and fellow travelers everywhere in government and the media; Evans' meticulous research leaves no doubt. Consider the NYT extolling the virtues of Stalin during the entire 1930s as Stalin murdered and terrorized tens of millions. The Soviets had high-level U.S. scientists on their payroll; hence, the stealing of the atomic secrets during the bomb's development, fast-tracking the Soviets' bomb-making abilities. McCarthy was right.

And yet he was maligned and continues to be to this day. After all, what if McCarthy was right? Is it possible that the continued denigration is designed to ensure that foreign nations' spies, agents and fellow travelers are rarely if ever questioned? Calling out a high level official of the U.S. as a Chinese agent would, after all, be called "McCarthyism."

The Taliban is chummy with the CCP. It is no coincidence that national government policies serving only to weaken the U.S. are being implemented.

The hypothesis that Biden and a host of Democrats around him are being bribed and/or threatened by the CCP makes sense of the otherwise inexplicable.

A Sporting Chance

James Doogue

It's hard to believe 14 years ago next month I was part of the coaching team which saw North Fremantle Colts win the Grand Final. It was one of a number of premierships I enjoyed, but never as a player. 😏

Many of these teenage boys went on to play senior footy at North Fremantle and elsewhere. Many are now fathers. What a different world their children are being raised in.

One thing for sure is that this day will live on as a fond memory for all of them. Not to mention the celebrations later that day and night. 😄

Unfortunately health problems made it difficult for me to continue the coaching commitment. Besides, my boys had stopped playing due to work, study and other ambitions. That year ended my involvement coaching AFL football which started at Auskick 8's Karoonda footy club nearly 15 years earlier.

Like many parents, I got involved in sports coaching, team management, club activities, and so many other roles, because of my kids. Sadly, parental involvement and commitment to voluntary roles in sports clubs was difficult to gain back then. It's even harder today.

The burden of regulations has made the task of running community clubs much harder too. Running food and drink services, fund raising, having meeting and kitchen facilities etc, now involves a bevvy of hurdles and regulations. And club volunteers can't just volunteer, they must be trained and certified.

Alcohol licencing, responsible serving of alcohol certification, food handling regulations, working with children permits, raffle permits, first aid certification, coaching certification, umpire certification, diversity training, the list goes on. All well meaning, but they stifle organic community volunteering.

Unfortunately fewer parents and children are involved in regular sports committments nowadays, which has leads to less healthy children. There are many contributory factors to this decline in Sports participation.

Kids have more choices and parents want them to 'experience' more rather than commit to one sport. So you have kids who have tried lots of things, but stuck with none.

Kids will sometimes not 'feel like' going to training, or they have other choices they would prefer on that day. Like a sleepover, birthday party, going to the beach or whatever. Many kids are stuck to their screens playing games.

Today's parents often seem reluctant to make their child see through commitments they make to a team. "I'm not going to force my child to do something they don't want to do." Yet speak to top athletes in their field very few would have continued, if their parents didn't give them a nudge or remind them of their obligation from time to time.

With both parents working in many families, and with so many single parent families, many children don't have the parental support often needed to participate in regular sports activities. Getting to training and games is a big commitment.

Some researchers believe the decline in sports participation can be blamed on its highly competitive nature, while others blame the 'every player gets a trophy' mentality for failing to develop passion.

We have also seen corporatism of children's sport and leisure. Very large community sports and leisure centres are run by shires or private companies. You pay to attend the venue whether playing or watching. Food and drink services are leased as small businesses. It's easier for parents, but lacks the community spirit of volunteer run clubs and the cost can be an issue.

Sports participation involves fee for membership and per session, and therefore excludes children whose parents can't afford the fees.

I spent years not just with football clubs, but basketball, tee-ball and Tae Kwon do as participant, and/or coach, umpire, manager, committees, water boy, etc. At every club there was always help for kids whose parents couldn't, or wouldn't pay for fees, uniforms or equipment, or who couldn't or wouldn't take them to venues. As a child participant I was a beneficiary of this assistance. It was usually done informally without broadcasting who was the beneficiary of this charity.

Now shires charge ever increasing property rates to employ people to run and maintain sports facilities. It always seems to involve a lot of people who don't actually do much.

Whatever the reason for the reduced participation, kids are missing out on the opportunity for fun, health and lifelong friendships.

COVID-19 hasn't helped!

Ship of Fools and Afghanistan

Timothy Birdnow

A great article from Daniel Greenfield about Afghanistan and why we lost.

From the brilliant Mr. Greenfield:

Afghanistan isn’t a country. It’s a stone age Brigadoon of quarreling tribes, ethnic groups, Islamic denominations, and warlords manned by young men with old Russian and American rifles. Unlike the fiction of a democratic Afghanistan, that is something they will die for.

And in the coming years you will see some of those same soldiers who laid down their guns fighting and dying for tribes and warlords, even fighting the Taliban, in the real endless war.

The forever war isn’t something we invented after 9/11: Afghanistan has always been at war.

Americans are impressed that the Taliban held out for 20 years. They shouldn’t be.

There’s no time in Afghanistan. Two decades of war are horrifyingly incomprehensible to Americans. To Afghans, it’s the way things have always been. We stepped into a place that has been a war zone for centuries, took sides, supplied weapons, and then left as everyone knew we would. The British and the Russians came and went. After us, the Chinese will come and go.

And the forever war will go on endlessly.

Before us, the Russians wanted the Afghans to pretend to be Communists. We wanted them to pretend that they were Democrats. But the Afghans aren’t ‘Afghans’, they’re Pashtuns, Uzbeks, Balochs, Hazaras, Sunni and Shiite Muslims, everything else is just a temporary costume.

[...]

American forces peaked at 25,000 under Bush. Obama quadrupled them to 100,000. That’s the year more American soldiers were wounded than during the entire Bush administration.

1,200 Americans died during Obama's Afghanistan surge, not just because he quadrupled the number of soldiers, but because the military was told to stop trying to defeat the Taliban.

Our soldiers became community organizers with guns who were told not to fight.

No hearts and minds were won. But cemeteries filled up with boys from Texas and West Virginia who weren’t allowed to shoot back because Obama wanted to win Muslim hearts and minds.

The military brass who embraced Obama’s strategy buried and crippled a generation of young men. Countless men and women came home wounded inside. They overdosed or killed themselves.

The surge receded. The military brass pulled back to secure the cities while the Taliban secured the rural areas that we spent so many lives on. All they had to do was wait for us to leave.

The speed with which the Taliban took the country only seems magical to CNN viewers.

The country was theirs for the taking. The Taliban fought few battles. The various warlords and leaders began switching sides when Biden announced his withdrawal to join the winning team. That’s the Islamic team backed by Pakistan, China, Turkey who are the big boys still standing.

Notice the enemy secured the countryside while we helped the government secure the cities. That was the same mistake made  by Chiang Kai-Shek in the Chinese civil war, and Mao and the Communists were easily able to crush the Nationalist Party by starving them out. (It's the one bright spot here in America; should civil war come our side is still dominant in the countryside while the cities belong to the left, which is why they are trying to colonize the countryside as we speak.)

Daniel hits the nail on the head here:

Having failed to fix Afghanistan, the process is now underway to bring as many Afghans as possible to America. The old plan to bring 100,000 "interpreters” and their family members has been vastly expanded to make any Afghan who did any work for American organizations, from aid groups to the media, eligible to come to America. By the time they’re done, we may end up with a million Afghan refugees in America. Some of them will become Islamic terrorists.

The final act of fighting terrorism is bringing the terrorists to America to create more terror.

So a million more people for the third most populous country on Earth, and almost all of them will be Muslims. We are planting the seeds of our own destruction.

Americans have spent the last century trying to turn the world into America. Let’s spend this century making America what it was always intended to be: a refuge from the rest of the world.

We won’t win wars anymore because we can no longer remember what we’re fighting for. Unable to draw boundaries between the enemy and ourselves, between our nation and the world, we’ve lost touch with the fundamental purpose and even the concept of what a war is.

And we'll never learn it as long as the Progressives control government and the academies teaching military people to be politically correct.

America is not just a ship of fools, she has become the Titanic of fools.

Snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory

This from Sherrie Mathieson:

From Jonathan Ginsburg:
The reality is that during Trump’s tenure and despite the Afghan government’s many imperfections, Afghanistan had made great strides. The government controlled most of the country’s territory. There was real economic growth. Women could work. Children could go to school.

Further, the cost of fostering regional stability by maintaining a stable Afghanistan was well within reason. The U.S. was spending less in Afghanistan in a year than we used to spend in a week. American forces were training and advising Afghan forces. Our troops were not fighting wars and taking casualties. This was clearly sustainable.
And how, in heaven’s name, is Trump to blame for Biden’s disastrous decision to cut and run? Trump was negotiating with the Taliban, but there was nothing wrong with that. The negotiations were conditions-base d, and Trump made clear the Taliban would be held accountable for its actions.
Moreover, Trump’s team made sure that if, in the end, the Taliban proved untrustworthy, the remaining U.S. force had been sized and scoped to present a serious deterrent to the Taliban and be sufficient to protect U.S. interests.
Trump, in fact, handed Biden a problem mostly solved. All Biden had to do was negotiate a lasting settlement from a position of strength or maintain an economy of force presence in Afghanistan if the Taliban failed to deliver. Instead, Biden just decided to call it a day and call the troops home regardless of what the Taliban did on the ground.
The Taliban’s offensive should surprise no one, given the conditions handed to it. Why would it not take advantage of Biden’s abandonment of Afghanistan? It knew full well the odds that this president would try to stop its orgy of murder, rape, forced marriages, and mayhem was near zero.
Of course, Biden will blame Trump. He will blame the Taliban. He can make all the excuses and spin all the narratives he wants, but a narrative can’t stop a bullet. This is a disaster. The situation did not collapse until he withdrew troops—and it is impossible not to conclude this happened because of what he decided.
Here is the bigger problem. This was not a one-off decision. This is part of a pattern of Obama-Biden foreign policy. And that should surprise no one since the current policies are being managed by much the same people.
In Iraq, after spending much time and effort stabilizing the country, former President Barack Obama precipitously withdrew U.S. troops. It was like ordering firefighters who had extinguished a wildfire to not stick around after the wildfire in case the blaze rekindles. ISIS mushroomed overnight, creating the largest and most powerful terrorist state in modern history.
In Libya, Obama insisted on leading from behind. And once Muammar Gaddafi was gone from the picture, he ignored the spiraling decline in the security situation until our diplomatic facilities in Benghazi were smoking ruins.
This is the Obama-Biden playbook. Disengage in dangerous situations, and hope everything doesn’t go to hell in a handbasket. And when those fond hopes don’t pan out? Time to make excuses; shift blame; do anything but deal with the problem—unless there is absolutely no alternative.
In the face of America’s enemies, the default position of Obama-Biden foreign policy default is accommodation and appeasement. Unfortunately, the bad guys are not stupid. They had eight years to study the Obama playbook, and they know what to do with it: exploit the deliberate self-weakening.
Biden is carrying on exactly the same foreign policy. Caving to Russia on Nord Stream 2. Refusing to confront China on the origins of COVID-19. Pleading with Tehran to let the U.S. back in the Iran nuclear deal.

Tim adds:

It was clearly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. I do not believe even Joe Biden is that thick. The people running Biden want to use this as another tool to promote societal evolution and the Great Reset. It's a psy-op on the American People in no small part.

We will now be treated to video of the Taliban waiving their rifles in the air on September 11 on the smoking ruins of our embassy. Doubt that? Well, Joe Biden said in a speech before the Council on Foreign Relations in 1992 Thus, in setting an American agenda for a New World Order, we must begin with a profound alteration in traditional thought" Any questions about who Mr. Biden is working for and why he is taking these seemingly insane actions? Whether it be the draconian Covid response or BLM rioting or wrecking our energy industry or letting millions of illegal aliens in, now wasting 20 years of effort and trillions of dollars in treasure in Afghanistan, every actions this lawless junta takes seems designed to break the spirit and pride of the American People and fit us for the bit in the mouth and the saddle on the back.

Biden in His Own Words

Timothy Birdnow

Joe Biden has always been wrong on nearly everything. And he is as lazy as he is stupid.

Here are a few interesting quotes from Mr. Biden over the years:
I never had an interest in being a mayor ’cause that’s a real job. You have to produce. That’s why I was able to be a senator for 36 years.

Lazy as he is stupid.

No Ordinary American Cares About Their Constitutional Rights

So the Founding Fathers weren't "normal". Why have the Constitution at all then?

I think it is Mr. Biden who is abie something or other. What was that...abbie - normal!

When you're appealing to people's fears and anxieties, you can make some gains.

No wonder Biden wears a mask at pressers and keeps warning about how we are all in mortal peril. No wonder he is jacked up about global warming.

Why does he think it his job to frighten Americans to compel "change"? Is that the role of the President now?

Thus, in setting an American agenda for a New World Order, we must begin with a profound alteration in traditional thought.

Now this is serious as a heart attack and shows why the Biden Administration is acting in the way it is. Biden wants a New World Order, an internationalist world ruled by an intelligentsia. And he wants to do it by changing how Americans think. That is well beyond the scope of the Presidency. It is not his place.

And it shows in every policy, from making us dependent on foreign oil to the fall of Kabul, to the bankrupting of the country, to the draconian Covid restrictions. Everything is designed to have a psychological impact on America, to make us despair, to make us obedient, to make us surrender our liberties and learn to love Big Brother. If you read this quote you will understand exactly where Mr. Biden is heading.

Every single morning since I've been 27 years old, I've got up and someone's handed me a card like the one I have in my pocket with the schedule on it, of all the things I'm gonna do. I don't know what to do if I didn't have that card.

Clearly a self-starter and a guy in charge!

It's easy being vice president - you don't have to do anything.
You know you're a success when you look at your kids and realize they turned out better than you.

(Given his son is a drug-addled, sex addicted loser that's a mighty big admission!)

In presidential campaign I released a 65-page file from the Syracuse University College of Law that showed poor grades, back in college, also. If I were plagiarizing consistently, my grades would have been better.

Setting the bar mighty high, eh? And THIS was the best America could do for a leader?

I agree with Donna Brazile who said about Benghazi: "We got to preven dis from hapinin agen. "

What is it with Democrats and fake black speech?

Well, you know, my shotgun will do better for you than your AR-15, because you want to keep someone away from your house, just fire the shotgun through the door.

What a moron!

He isn't done yet:

Banning guns is an idea whose time has come.

And on taxes:
Obama and Biden want to raise taxes by a trillion dollars. Guess what? Yes we do.

Joe Biden played high school football. I now suspect he never wore a helmet.

He's also been on the wrong side of almost every issue.

"On a personal level is he a friendly guy, but he has empirically had poor judgment particularly on foreign policy ... the examples are numerous,” Robert Charles said Friday on "Fox and Friends."

"Interestingly, Robert Gates in his book who criticizes almost nobody … noted that ‘Joe Biden has been wrong on almost every foreign policy and national security issue for the last four decades.’”

There Never WAS a Pullout Plan

Fay Voshell

From 2016 (!!): "It's going to make Saigon '75 look like child's play if we don't have a plan in place."

— Edward McCallum, U.S. contractor

Here's the short and prophetic article in which Mr. McCallum is quoted. The lack of an evacuation plan was noted as far back as August 2016 and even before that date.

Tim adds:

Which means that Biden went against the advice from the generals and pushed forward with this sans any operational plan in place anyway. Either that or the junta spoke with yes-men military people, which is entirely possible as so many of these Ivy League dopes have no idea at all about how to fight and win a war, much less how to withdraw from one. They are professionals at implementing social policy in the ranks and little more.

With this act of criminal incompetence Biden has made the world safe for war profits. I wish I had invested heavily into arms companies.

I guess this is what Biden meant when he railed against Trump's policy of unilateral action and avoiding military entanglements.

Psy-ops and Losing Wars

From John Conlin:

The lesson that America didn't learn after Viet Nam: Once you start a war there are only two ways you can choose to end it: 1) win 2) lose...Or did we indeed learn that lesson and once again, chose option #2?

Why America Can't Win Wars

We Should All be Appalled by What is Happening in Afghanistan

I replied:

We had the childish policy of "winning hearts and minds" rather than winning the war, and that is done by killing the enemy. We want to fight "kinder, gentler" wars. War is by it's very nature harsh business. It is won or lost oftentimes based on who has the will to win.

We go in with the intent of fighting for a few years and then going home. We play nice, treat prisoners decently, and generally act like visiting uncles. But our enemies are very brutal people who will stop at nothing. The general populace in a country like Afghanistan know we will be gone at some point and the thugs will remember who sided with us. So they have to just bide their time.

I would add that I think the way we fought all these years was wrong, but the way we pulled out was shameful. I do not believe Biden or anyone else is that incompetent (I mean, pulling out of Baghram airbase before evacuating everyone else?)

The Biden junta is composed of extreme radicals and they are the ones running the show (well, the Obama people). I think they wanted this. They want the Taliban celebrating on the smoking ruins of our embassy in Kabul, another way to break the American sense of self and American pride. It's a psy-op. Just like the overreaction to Covid (which has imprisoned Americans in their homes and behind their masks and put us at each other's throats) as well as the BLM race rioting and all the rest; these things ultimately are designed to strike at America's core. Once broken we can then be trained in the Great Reset.

Arguing with Idiots Covid Vaccine Addition Yet Again

Timothy Birdnow

Another argument with a Covidiot on Facebook.

Clinton Webb says:

Did your public school require MMR vaccine? Mine did.

Tom Greer replied:

Our public schools required vaccinations for "natural" illnesses. There were no lab-created viruses when I was a kid, at least none had been released outside of warfare.

Mr. Webb responds:

If there was protection against nuclear fallout and someone was dropping the bomb soon, would you turn it down? I don’t care if it’s lab-made or not, the data has proven over and over that the vaccines are safe and effective. It’s anyone’s choice to get it or not, but it’s silly to turn it down for bad reasons.

I added:

Clinton Webb they did adequate testing on vaccinations before they forced them on us, and even then there were groups exempted for religious reasons. This is quite different; a panic to stampede the public into taking a novel gene therapy for a disease that was created in a lab in China but funded in part by the U.S. In short, the Ruling Class created a virus and then mandates we accept their solution come hell or high water. And they won't even consider other medicines or palliatives. That is a world of difference between taking a vaccine that stimulates your immune system without altering you genetic code.

Mr. Webb replies:

No one has forced you, have they? This is EUA but you're not forced to get it friend. With multiple different vaccines developed in several countries, all approved by medical systems from different countries all over the world, I feel confident it's safer than getting severe covid. You're free to make your own choices, of course.

I reply:

It has NOT been "proven safe" Clinton Webb. We are in the clinical trials now. Nor has it been proven effective. We won't know how effective it is for a couple of years yet. They TELL us something that is not supportable by any legitimate data.

Clint responds:

Takes only a minute to google and you can find data from all sorts of different sources showing more or less the same thing.

I reply:

Uh, Clint Webb, maybe YOU should learn to Google. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2021-07-vaccinated-unvaccinated-britons-dying-coronavirus.html

Furthermore the FDA itself reported that there would be breakout cases in the vaccinated as early as December of last year. https://www.fda.gov/media/144245/download

Page 42

"Among 3410 total cases of suspected but unconfirmed COVID-19 in the overall study population, 1594 occurred in the vaccine group vs. 1816 in the placebo group [who received a saltwater shot].”

Touching the faith you have in mainstream media reporting on this too, as we have been gaslighted with this from the beginning and social media has labored to suppress the dissemination of information that does not promote the jab.

 Also, there is no mention of the many adverse reactions and problems with the vaccination (which really isn't a vaccination but an experimental gene therapy.) Heart inflammation, clotting, and then there is this https://www.lewrockwell.com/2021/08/joseph-mercola/mrna-expert-speaks-out-on-the-covid-crisis/?fbclid=IwAR3dq_CXc-Tle1M1lVlfdfYPF2ry4i2wPlIr-8PTrPEhhe5asqhqYqb23F0 This vaccine opens the blood brain barrier, among other things. https://­www.bitchute.com/­video/2MNeAYblXVVv/Oh, and there is the matter of  Antibody Dependent Enhancement, Every mRNA vaccine prior to this current Covid had this problem with ADE, in which diseases actually are aided in entering cells by the antibodies produced via mRNA vaccine. Look it up.

But back to the original point; given how bad our numbers are (we don't really have a test for covid, just something that sees if we have generated antibodies, meaning we've been exposed to one of the covid viruses at some point) and the diagnosis has often been done based on clinical examination only. The CDC is also pushing a diagnosis of Covid and we know they were paying hospitals to diagnose it. The fact that we didn't have a flu season last year should clue us in to the fact we were diagnosing influenza as Covid.

So we don't know how many people have had it. And we don't know who is dying from it. I am given to understand that CDC guidelines are for doctors to diagnose a Covid-related death as a death from the comorbitity and not the disease itself when a person is vaccinated.

So you can believe your AP article if you wish, but I say again we don't know if this vaccine has saved any lives. It has not been proven effective or safe.

Cheering the Demise

Timothy Birdnow

On facebook there was a story about a crowd cheering the demise of the white majority on Jimmy Falon's show.

My reply got dozens of up votes:

By all means, cheer the demise of the whites. Cheer the end of such racist things as the Constitution, the Magna Carta, the Civil Rights Act. Applaud the end of pluralism and Natural Rights. Cheer for the end of the material bounty made possible by white people, from cheap food to air conditioning, clean water, safe heat, nice clothes, electronics, automobiles, cell phones, computers. Hip, hip, hoorah for the end of schooling! Bravo for the end of science and the university system! Hallalujah for the demise of Judeo-Christian

ethics!

Black Privilege

Timothy Birdnow

On Facebook I had the following discussion:

Steven Chase said:

LAST NIGHT..
Jimmy Fallon on his TV show quipped "the census shows that - for the first time in history - there are less White People in America."

The audience exploded in thunderous cheers and applause.

Nothing further, your honor.

Merv Thompson replied:

Hahahahaha! You guys kill me!!!

Steven Chase replied:

Turn it around. A host says blacks are disappearing and the crowd cheers....

Merv Thompson sneers:

We ain't going nowhere!
Don't look so worried!

I reply:

You aren't Merv Thompson? Do you not understand the concept of double edged swords? What happens when times change. Black people are no different from whites, or from the Native Americans who were here before us. Times change. The Hispanic population is growing in America and you guys already have been displaced as the largest minority. How long before the Hispanic community asserts its politcal power? You may look back nostalgically on the good old days when white people favored blacks over even themselves.

This offended old Merv:

What time period was that, that white people Favored blacks over themselves?

Hopefully you're kidding!

And I hope you don't say that out loud in public!

I retorted:

Merv Thompson, we've been favoring blacks for a number of decades now. Or are you not aware of the multiplicity of programs that give black people an advantage? Do you not know of race norming in federal hiring,where blacks get ten extra points on the civil service exam? Or affirmative action hiring by employers in all businesses? Or preferential acceptance into college? Do you not realize there are special "hate crimes" laws that are designed to offer preferential legal protections? And the Civil Rights Act and Fair Housing Act both fundamentally transformed American society for the benefit of black people.

Before these came the presumption was that any business owner had a right to decide who he was going to do business with. Landlords could decide who they would rent their own property to. Not anymore. We made a huge change and it was entirely a preferential action for the black community.

Do you think we would tolerate the high rates of violent crime in white neighborhoods, or the ambushing of police? That is part of the favoratism for blacks, excusing criminal behavior. 

Do you think a guy like Al Sharpton could get anywhere if he were not black? He led a mob that burned down a Jewish owned business (Freddie's Fashion Mart) as well as framed a prosecutor for rape.

For that matter, do you think for a moment white America would tolerate the kinds of rioting and looting seen in places like Ferguson? If it were just white people involved they would have sent in the Guard and opened fire on the rioters.

I know black people derive their cultural identity from grievance and victimhood, but the reality is every effort has been made by white America (who supported all these laws and policies) to aid and assist the black community. You may not want to admit that, but the reality is white people have bent over backwards to help black folks for over half a century now. Guys like you simply refuse to believe that because it is part of what you see as your birthright.

I would add  the words of a brilliant black thinker named Booker T. Washington:

"There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”

That pretty much defines the modern era.

Do you really think White America was pulled kicking and screaming by black people into all of this? Into our numbers dropping to where we will be a minority? We helped the black population grow by giving them money to have children and to help them raise them. We also changed immigration laws to favor blacks and other non-whites coming here from overseas.

White America has been the kindest, more benevolent ruling class in history, at least for the last seventy five years or so. It is just your willful ignorance that keeps you mired in the quicksand of anger and resentment. The biggest enemy of the black community is it's own sense of self and unwillingness to accept any responsibility for it's own welfare and fate.

Oh yes, it's BLack Privilege. It's very good to be a black person these days, provided you work hard and have half a brain. That is why white people like Rachel Dolezol are pretending to be black; they can get ahead if they are. It's why the only demographic losing life expectancy is white males.
