Yesterday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis had a direct confrontation with CNN narrative engineer Rosa Flores over the roll-out of the Coronavirus vaccine. WATCH:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has organized new rules for the 117th congress. [pdf here]
Within the rules there are punishments for members who would create or promote memes on their social media; there are a host of new subcommittees established including coronavirus; and interestingly, a new “Ombudsman” filtering position within the whistle-blower process that would protect the Biden administration from exposure of corruption.
Diversity is a paramount issue, including an entire office dedicated to ensure that any witness panel to congress would also have diversity. Yes, “witness diversity.”
The new “Whistle-blower Ombudsman” position is clearly a protective move to keep control of any remaining Trump-era officials that might expose corrupt activity.
Using their ever-familiar anonymous sources; which is to say there are no real sources; a very predictable corporate media narrative started earlier today where pro-Trump rally attendees are shaped as domestic terrorists intended to create havoc and violence in Washington DC. As the DC mayor calls-in the national guard to protect the capital from the unwashed masses, the media strike up the domestic terrorist threat.
The corporate media narrative engineering is as transparent as the fraud perpetrated amid our new banana-republic form of government. The dismissive use of “so called first-amendment” is a nice touch amid the typeset. Methinks, the elites doth protest too much.
BLOOMBERG – U.S. lawmakers are receiving urgent security instructions in advance of potential violence in Washington tied to Wednesday’s joint session of Congress to count Electoral College votes, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The precautions distributed Monday to members of the House and Senate include guidance to use underground tunnels while traveling between chambers in the Capitol and to nearby office buildings during the day, the person said, asking not to be named as the information isn’t public.
Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser, who refused to enlist the support of the national guard during the Black Lives Matter riots in the summer of 2020, has called upon the guard to defend the U.S. capitol from patriots arriving to support President Trump.
There is a certain level of typically left-wing irony today as the media create a false narrative about President Trump using the military to stay in office, while simultaneously the DC mayor is using the military to…
WASHINGTON DC – […] According to a U.S. defense official, Mayor Muriel Bowser put in a request on New Year’s Eve to have Guard members on the streets from Jan. 5-7th, to help with the protests.
Mayor Ted Wheeler has allowed wholesale anarchy to run amok in the streets of Portland, Oregon, while using the attempts by President Trump to stop the violence as an excuse to call Trump an authoritarian dictator.
However, with the possibility of a change in administration it is no longer in the interests of the totalitarian state for random acts of violence to be associated with the severe-leftist cause. As a result, Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler now says Antifa violence cannot be tolerated any longer. WATCH:
As Mamet said: “in order for the far-left to advance their ideology they must pretend not to know things”… As soon as their ability to deflect the pretense ends, they shift strategies and then deny they ever supported them in the first place.
All of that said, we know the real reason why Portland is changing direction.
Former Acting Director of National Intelligence, Richard “Ric” Grenell, discusses his own experience within Nevada with officials who would not allow evidence to be gathered. As Grenell states in the interview: “The whole idea we are not providing evidence, is because they [corrupt officials] control the actual physical evidence.”

The one constant in an ever-changing universe is the hypocrisy within the positions of the left-wing ideology.
In an earlier reference, Germany demanded the EU stay united in the Paris Climate Treaty until President Trump withdrew; then, immediately Germany went solo and said they would not adhere to the communal climate dictates they previously demanded.
In the most recent example Angela Merkel goes rogue and orders 30 million doses of COVID vaccine from pharmaceutical company Pfizer. Outside the EU plan for their collective distribution.
“It is known that Germany has placed an order for 30 million doses of the anti-Covid vaccine, bilaterally, with Pfizer and BioNtech”, which will add to the quota of 55.8 million destined for the country. in the distribution of the 300 million doses ordered by the European Union
The spokesman for the German health ministry, Jens Spahn, said in response to a question during the government press conference in Berlin. (link)
Ultimately, each leader should act according to their own nations’ best interests; that’s the essential underpinning of nationalism. However, it is a little beyond hypocritical for Germany to lead the collectivist argument while selectively picking and choosing which of those “greater good” demands they individually choose to adhere to. I digress…
As noted yesterday, a simple COVID relief bill for American workers is really not a big problem… except it is… because the DC system is not structured around simply helping Americans first. The legislative machinery is owned by K-Street and multinationals who pay for the outcomes they alone create.
A people’s president, Donald Trump, cuts through the chaff and countermeasures:
President Trump wants congress to re-write the $900 billion COVID bill to provide $2,000 per person instead of $600 per person. In essence Trump is asking for a stand alone COVID relief bill for $2k/person, then drop the $600/person payment out of the pork-laden COVID relief bill and start that economic relief bill over.
This is not a hard issue to resolve. The only reason UniParty congress is fighting Trump is because the lobbyist and foreign government bribes are part of the $900 billion and will not pass the scrutiny of public opinion if standing alone. Once you see the strings on the marionettes you can never return to that moment in time when you did not see them.
Heavy sigh… (more…)
There has been a great deal of political narrative engineering/fabrication surrounding President Trump’s admonitions to congress about a pork-filled COVID relief package. With a budgetary “shut-down” date looming on Monday, let’s look at the issues.
First, there’s no such thing as a federal government “shut-down”; the only thing that happens if with a budgetary date exceeded is “non essential” government employees told to stay home (reference the prior “sequestration” nonsense).
Second, the jaw-droppingly tone-deaf and pork-filled scheme of spending within the $900 billion COVID relief package is disconnected from the Omnibus spending bill ($1.5 trillion) that was combined into a single legislative construct for convenience only.
The Omnibus bill (non budget spending/allocation) and the COVID bill can be separated, because they are technically separate bills.

In essence Trump is asking for a stand alone COVID relief bill for $2k/person, then drop the $600/person payment out of the pork-laden COVID relief bill and start that economic relief bill over.

President Trump shared a video message today highlighting the scale of pork spending in the COVID-19 relief package. President Trump takes exception to congress giving money to foreign governments and foreign organizations while short-shrifting the American people who have suffered under COVID lockdown regulations.
