You might remember on October 13, 2021, Joe Biden delivered widely carried remarks about specific actions his administration was taking to increase operations at the Port of Los Angeles (POLA) and the Port of Long Beach (POLB).

Here we take a closer look at the claims since the original announcement, and then highlight the actual results from the ports.  The port operations are actually doing worse today than they were in October. They are less efficient, less productive and have offloaded less freight in November than they did in October.  The factual results are exactly the opposite of the administration claims.

The October 13, 2021, White House fact sheet is HERE, “announcing a series of public and private commitments to move more goods faster, and strengthen the resiliency of our supply chains, by moving towards 24/7 operations at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.”  On November 17, 2021, the White House gave an update, “Recent Progress at Our Ports: Moving Cargo and Filling Shelves” and claiming the increased hours of operations were delivering on the White House expectations of increased productivity and offloading capacity.

Throughout these past 11 weeks, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg have been claiming their supply chain task force has been successful in generating exceptional results and removing the backlog at the ports, specifically the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.  However, if we look at the actual records from both ports, we find exactly the opposite:

The already low credibility of media and the political health establishment has collapsed more in the final week of this year than most months preceding it.   Why?

The main cause of this specific moment, an inflection point in the arc of COVID history, was the Omicron “winter of death” narrative pushed by Joe Biden, the COVID taskforce, government health officials, left-wing politicians and media.   The Omicron doom and fear narrative became a parody of itself.   One brilliant videographer has put together a mashup showing what took place in the past ten days.

It all started with ultra-progressive Harris County, Texas, Judge Lina Hidalgo holding a dramatic press conference to report that an unvaccinated man in Houston, who was in his 50s, had died from the omicron variant (pictured left).

However, only one journalist actually called the hospital to check the claim and discovered what progressive Judge Lina Hildago claimed was actually false.  There was no unvaccinated 50-year-old man who died from Omicron in the hospital.  It was all made up by the judicial version of AOC.

Unfortunately, once the media, medical establishment and politicians had that press conference soundbite, FROM A JUDGE – not a doctor, they were off to the races.  This video brilliantly shows what happened next.  WATCH:

This admission is exactly what people have been arguing for two years.  This exact point, and the “with COVID -vs- from COVID” argument within the false narrative, is what justified Big Tech to ban COVID critics from their speech platforms.

I’m not going to comment further; at a certain point these reversals just get silly.  WATCH: 

.

Suddenly, as the magic politics of COVID infection rates turns into a liability, the accuracy of hospitalized COVID tests is something to clarify.

These officials are just throwing magic beans into the audience at this point.  In the past ten days, the CDC, NIH and FDA have jumped so far over the justification shark, the light from where justification shark jumping starts could not catch them for years.

This is an interesting angle to elections having consequences.   Apparently, the ultra-wealthy and affluent in Beverly Hills are rushing to purchase firearms at a jaw-dropping rate as they no longer feel safe.   It’s worth reading the whole article.

[Beverly Hills] – In Beverly Hills, even the purchase of a firearm comes with certain…expectations. The city’s only gun store, Beverly Hills Guns, is a “concierge service” by appointment only, for a largely affluent clientele. And business is booming.

Since opening in July 2020, the store has seen upscale residents from Santa Monica to the Hollywood Hills increasingly in a panic following several high-profile smash-and-grab and violent home invasion robberies. The apparent siege has brought in a daily stream of anxious business owners and prominent actors, real estate moguls and film execs, says owner Russell Stuart. Most are arming themselves for the first time.

“This morning I sold six shotguns in about an hour to people that say, ‘I want a home defense shotgun,’” says Stuart, whose store is discreetly located in a Beverly Hills office building, with no sign on the doors, down the hall from a diamond dealer. “Everyone has a general sense of constant fear, which is very sad. We’re used to this being like Mayberry.”  (read more)

Funny how that happens…

Keep in mind, this is the epicenter of the West Coast donor base for the DNC.

The CDC changed guidance on quarantine times yesterday, highlighting their motive as always driven by politics and money, not public health {Go Deep}.  Many people immediately recognized this, but the visible intent of the change is problematic for the government institutions.

To defend the administrative state, the media -incapable of admitting what is transparently obvious- now need to reconcile the CDC quarantine changes through the false prism of public health.

The result is 100 percent demonstrable gaslighting.  Look at this spin:

(Philly Inquirer) – “The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated its guidelines this week for what people should do if they’re exposed to or contract COVID-19, following new research that shows most transmission occurs early in the course of illness.

The update comes as people return home from holiday gatherings with friends and family, and schools prepare to reopen — as the highly contagious omicron strain continues to spread. The new guidelines, which reduce the amount of time asymptomatic people must quarantine at home after exposure, are an attempt to reduce the risk of transmission while minimizing the disruption to people’s daily routines.” (read more)

Everything about that claimed justification for the quarantine changes is demonstrably and provably false.

Last night Dr. Anthony Fauci openly admitted the only reason the CDC changed the quarantine times was because they needed to help corporate employers reduce sick time, or time “out” of work.  Twitter Video:

The Washington Post, the primary outlet for the Fourth Branch of government operations, is publishing information from the Lawfare operatives that work inside the Jan-6 committee showing their timeline.

Deep state operative Mary McCord (not named but transparently visible) and administrative insiders tell WaPo, “The rough timeline being discussed among senior committee staffers includes public hearings starting this winter and stretching into spring, followed by an interim report in the summer and a final report ahead of November’s elections.”

The early 2022 hearings will target GOP primary candidates and the effort of Democrats to influence the primary elections.

The summer interim report will be dropped after the primary races are finished and will be intended to influence the summer campaign season.  The final report will drop as the coordinated DNC/Lawfare “October surprise”.  None of this should come as a surprise to those who follow the deep weeds of DC politics.

The coordinated Lawfare and Democrat fingerprints are obvious even in the WaPo report.  The Legislative Branch will work with the Fourth Branch (intelligence apparatus writ large) to blend the senate “federal election reform bill” with the recommendations from the J6 committee:

Friends, this stuff baffles me on many levels.   All around the nation various local media outlets are reporting on this massive influx of people getting tested, or trying to get tested, for COVID-19.  Miles and miles of people suddenly lining up for COVID tests everywhere, it’s weird.

The media is pushing the testing aspect hard right now and hitting the Biden administration for not having a federal system in place to facilitate this massive influx of people needing COVID tests.  Without a doubt, that narrative is why Biden told the media today the states have to solve the issue on their own. [More on that later]

In the interim, I asked the question on the Twitter about why people would be lining up for hours to get a COVID test now. What’s the reason?   Most of the responses are generally of the same mindset as the original question with people also wondering why.  I can identify only a few generally valid reasons, and even then, something still doesn’t make sense.

♦ Some people are required to take a test for work, and with the mandates now beginning to kick in, that seems to make sense.  However, does this mean people have to stand in line for hours before every shift?  [feel free to chime in on this one]

♦ Some people are required to take a test to travel to a destination that requires a negative test.  Again, that seems to make sense, I guess.  However, it still seems silly from the perspective of testing is unlikely to stop any infection that can happen at any given moment.

Other than ‘being required’ to take a test for the two reasons above, why would anyone take one?

In order for the hardline leftists to continue advancing their ideological agenda, they must always, always, pretend not to know things.  Cue Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg…

Pete Buttigieg has promoted open borders and mass illegal immigration as a “basic human right“, those are his words.  However, now he proclaims the process of trafficking people across the border is a violation of human rights.  In this brief public service announcement, Buttigieg urges people to call the authorities whenever they suspect human trafficking might be happening.  WATCH:

You can report Human Trafficking by calling 1-888-373-7888 or Texting BEFREE as one word.

Apparently Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton’s closest aide, has written a book describing her life experience during a time when her husband Anthony Weiner was sending pictures of his penis to various underage girls around the country.  [One of Andrew Breitbart’s Funniest Moments]

Back in 2011, Andrew triggered a series of events that long outlasted his time with us.  Very influential New York Democrat Congressman Anthony Weiner was texting pictures of his penis (amid other things) to underage girls.  Andrew was tipped off and eventually exposed the story.  It was a hot mess of DNC, MSM and the entire Clinton machine circling the wagons to protect Weiner and attack Breitbart.  Andrew won against the entire machine in epic fashion. It was just awesome.

A few years passed, and then Anthony Weiner was caught doing it again, only this time there were criminal charges.  Huma has written a book about her life in the aftermath of Weiner’s exposure and appears on CNN to talk about it.

https://youtu.be/llhObaN-WpI

There is a facet to the Huma Abedin story that no one in the media will discuss, including Dana Bash.   Huma’s husband, Anthony Weiner, tried to cut a deal with federal officials at the Southern District of New York (SDNY) to avoid criminal prosecution.  Weiner offered to give Huma Abedin’s laptop, which included all of Huma’s electronic communication files with Hillary Clinton, to the US Attorney’s office and FBI in return for no prosecution.

The most unqualified person to be installed in the position of Vice President is struggling badly.  Several attempts to rehabilitate her public image have failed miserably.  A new team was hired to try and rebrand her image, that too failed miserably.  Kamala Harris is a profoundly unserious person with few intellectual skills, and she requires constant assistance.  It must be very frustrating for those around her.

Today, CBS correspondent Margaret Brennan tries once again to elevate the image of Harris and fails.  You cannot create in someone a skillset that is light-years from their disposition.  Everything becomes a transparent pantomime, a performance of bad acting with a person who has not rehearsed, doesn’t know the plot, has not read the script, has spent no time with the other actors, and yet attempts to produce a performance.

The interview is lengthy, but I want to just draw your attention to a two minute segment that will highlight everything.  Listen to Kamala Harris discuss the current status of the Build Back Better bill, and the connected inflation that legislative spending creates.  [From 4:56 (prompted) to 7:00] WATCH:

That word salad of nothingness perfectly encapsulates Kamala Harris.  She has absolutely no idea what she is trying to say, because she has absolutely no idea what she is trying to talk about.  It’s not an issue of her being merely unqualified, the problem is much bigger, she’s completely clueless.  The team around her cannot make something out of nothing.

What I am describing above is not just visible to critics like you and me. The problem for Biden and Harris is that the majority of Democrats see Harris in exactly the same way, look at the comments section on YouTube.   Only corporate media and far, far left social justice types -who pretend not to know things- are supportive.  That’s why Harris could only gain 3% support from the Democrat base in the 2020 election.
