There are times when the words that come from the mouth of the Moonbats at CNN just need to be emphasized, so we can all laugh.  This is one of those times.

Appearing on CNN to discuss the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay, “journalist” Matt Egan takes parseltongue spin to new levels of professional obfuscation.

During his review of Gay’s plagiarism, Mr. Egan notes Mrs. Gay has not been “accused of stealing ideas,” she has been accused of “copying other people’s writing without attribution.”  Yes, he actually said that.

…”We should note that Claudine Gay has not been accused of stealing anyone’s ideas in any of her writings. She has been accused of sort of more like copying other people’s writings without attribution. So, it’s been more sloppy attribution than stealing anyone’s ideas.”

Prompted:

Someone should tell Matt Egan that “copying other people’s writings without attribution,” is actually plagiarism. 😂🤣😂

There is only one reasonable way to look at this.  The Lightbringer, Teh One, the messiah of all progressive enlightenment, must have changed his mind and acquiesced to the reality that his diminishing ego was more valuable than her demise.  If the Lightbringer had stood firm, she would still be in place.

The Crimson – Harvard President Claudine Gay will resign Tuesday afternoon, bringing an end to the shortest presidency in the University’s history, according to a person with knowledge of the decision. It is not clear who will be appointed to serve as interim president. (more)

Thankfully, the 379 people on the Airbus 350 survived. Unfortunately, 5 of the six people in the coast guard plane were killed.

CCTV Video from the airport shows the stunning moment that JAL flight 516 hits the coast guard plane. It is remarkable that more people were not hurt.

Jan. 2 (UPI) — Five people were killed Tuesday after an incoming Japan Airlines Airbus A350 collided with a Japan Coast Guard aircraft on the runway as it touched down at Tokyo’s Haneda International Airport, authorities said.

All 367 passengers and 12 crew of JAL Flight 516 from Sapporo on Hokkaido escaped without serious injury after the aircraft erupted in a fireball, but police confirmed five of the six crew aboard the Coast Guard plane delivering aid to the earthquake-struck region of Ishikawa were killed.

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

59-year-old South Korea opposition leader Lee Jae-myung had just finished touring a construction site of a new airport on Gadeok Island when he was attacked and stabbed in neck while talking with reporters.

Numerous media outlets captured the horrific attack.

As a presidential candidate, Lee Jae-myung was in favor of normalizing relations with North Korea.

VIA BBC – Lee Jae-myung, who narrowly lost the presidential elections in 2022, was stabbed on the left side of his neck on Tuesday morning.

The male attacker was arrested at the scene.  Lee was transferred to a hospital about 20 minutes after the attack. He was conscious at the time, Yonhap said.

Mr Lee is not currently a member of South Korea’s legislature but is widely expected to run for a seat in the next general election, which will take place in April 2024.

He lost the 2022 presidential elections with a 0.73% difference in votes to current President Yoon Suk-yeol, making it the closest presidential race in South Korean history. (read more)

In his New Year message to the people of China, Chairman Xi Jinping affirms the intention to unify Taiwan with China.

[Full Translation HERE] From the speech:

“We will continue to support Hong Kong and Macao in harnessing their distinctive strengths, better integrating themselves into China’s overall development, and securing long-term prosperity and stability. China will surely be reunified, and all Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should be bound by a common sense of purpose and share in the glory of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.”  ~ Chairman Xi Jinping (link)

This is sure to create anxiety amid the DC interventionists within the U.S. foreign policy establishment.  However, with the USA bogged down in two regional conflicts, Israel/Gaza and Ukraine/Russia, the window for China to influence the Taiwan election is wide open.

In this outline I am going to expand on the details previously discussed {HERE}.  You won’t find this in any financial media discussion, and there’s only a handful of people I know in the west who really understand the ramifications.  Fortunately, one of them is running for President.

First some non-pretending context.  If you are a Friedman-ite, finance major from any traditional academic institute – including Wharton, and/or a person who uses data models to frame analysis about economics and finance, without the capacity to put all of your traditional reference points in the trash heap of irrelevance, then just move along.  We ain’t got time for that.

Consider Austan Goolsbee and Bill Ayers having dinner talking about what would happen if they successfully de-dollarized the globe.  Austan comes at it from one perspective, Bill from another. Bernardine Dohrn smiles, because neither of the Chicago dinner guests has any idea what would really happen in this ideological landscape; no one really does.

I first sounded the alarm on this on March 2, 2022, almost two years ago {SEE HERE}.

In the ideological DoS/CIA/WEF/Western banking frenzy to punish the horrible Russia, I took a different approach. I overlaid the human factor with the geopolitical reality of financial control mechanisms.  I predicted a cleaving outcome, because I carry no assumptions.  That’s the context.

Additionally, I’m not coming at this situational analysis having relied on charts, graphs, trade analysis, Western finance systems or actuarial constructs of monetary manipulation by central bankers.  Nope.  I sat quietly inside small to medium-sized regional banks in Western Europe and listened to the reality of what businesspeople are doing, actually doing, in their operation of their enterprise as it relates to finance and Russia. {Go Deep}

This is where the razor’s edge outcome of the cleaving, the “yellow zone” -vs- “grey zone” construct, meets reality.

What we will witness this year will be one of the biggest stories of 2024 that will impact every American.  However, few people will understand the information that will slowly trickle toward us, because too few people analyze information without historic assumptions.

When the “West” (yellow zone) triggered the sanction regime against Russia, almost no one took a big picture overlay and asked, “What about those nations who do not align with the Western intent; what will they do?”
