Spot on as usual.

If Fauci got away with letting thousands of people die of Aids why would he not believe it to be true with Covid?

Has it not been proven that Covid was a "nefarious" crime committed in cooperation with DOD? I say let the war tribunals commence and staff up the firing squads.

Lisa's avatar

Imagine how much better the world would be today if Fauci had been held accountable for his AZT criminality forty years ago... Accountability is the only thing that keeps sociopaths in line, across the full spectrum - from the petty tyrants to the full blown evil doers. It's only ever been accountability for one's actions that keeps the unethical (and those lacking empathy) in line and it is the lack of any authentic justice for decades now that is destroying our country.

Alan's avatar

James nailed it. The Fauci hearing was just another act in the long demoralization campaign. We have a president who has risked all to fight to save the constitutional republic. Do we have a people who will do the same? Benjamin Franklin wants to know.

JohnAZ's avatar

That is the real question. The Constitution starts with:

We the people. We are responsible for what happens.

P. Robert Thorson's avatar

This is true. The deterioration of the rule of law has been a process underway for decades. In terms of the Presidential office, the slippery slope has gone from Nixon and Watergate (pardoned by forced to resign from office), to Slick Willy Clinton (arguing the definitions of "is" and "sexual relations", impeached but not convicted), to the Plandemic and genocide - where both Trump and Biden allowed the carnage and violation of Constitutional rights to occur on their watches with no fallout. So far.

I don't give a pass to Trump. It's his sworn duty to uphold and enforce the laws of the land. If failing to do so, the responsibility than falls on "We The People". Those guilty of the crime of mass murder either are brought to justice, or the Republic is doomed. The next few months will test the backbone of U.S. citizens.

JohnAZ's avatar

Yes and no.

The Deep State formation since WW2 has removed much of the control the electorate had over their elected officials. DC pretty much runs itself today, with little control from the electorate. 98% of the Congress is returned every election. That allows special interests to rule Congress, not the people.

Right now in this country, the law is made by the lawbreakers. I would be so bold as to say that criminal elements have total control over parts of our government. It is the same over the globe. It is a lesson, when you take away the ability of people to support themselves with work, criminality will flourish. A great example is Prohibition. A huge industry just moved indoors.

No one on the blog talks about where it is all going, they just complain about now. IMO, we are well on our way to WMBH,where good government will lose control of everything as the criminals just take over.

P. Robert Thorson's avatar

I can't argue with you - criminals are running the show. The Plandemic has provided an obvious line in the sand (hill to die on) for Americans. If tolerated by the citizens, it's game over. A form of government that allows genocide to go unpunished is an arrangement not worthy of saving.

We'll find out if this ends with the guilty being punished, Civil War, a Constitutional Convention, Revolution II, violence France 1793-style, or something else. The time for diplomacy and negotiation has <probably> passed.

JohnAZ's avatar

Genocide, by who?

Germany.

Israel?

Iran?

The USA?

Russia?

China?

Britain?

Japan?

Cambodia?

Ruwanda?

Iraq?

Etc.

The purpose of war, genocide, is the eradication of the philosophy of the opposition, is now and always has been. Until the real intent of the ministry of Jesus takes over the people of the world, it will continue, IMO, and I see nothing that shows me a brighter path.

Revelation? Is St. John’s prophesy correct? Will it take eradication of 90% of the world’s population to stop the carnage?

Anon E. Mousse's avatar

For the acronym deficient, what is WMBH?

Yirgach's avatar

The difference is that the criminals won't be human.

IndependentThinker's avatar

What does WMBH stand for? I'm not familiar with that acronym.

Steve's avatar

"98% of the Congress is returned every election."

I see what you did there.

Cindi's avatar

Frankly, I think the Republic is well past doom. The SAVE Act is at least an 80% issue in favor for “we the people” but the tools & clowns in the Senate literally refuse either to debate it & certainly not vote in the affirmative FOR it, in defiance of “we the people”. So….

Steve's avatar

"It's his sworn duty to uphold and enforce the laws of the land."

Sort of. The laws he enforces must be Constitutional. Nowhere in Article I Section 8 is anything remotely like that granted to the legislature, and the executive branch is granted little except war powers and pardons. Trump did not issue the lockdowns, nor did he countermand the states, counties and municipalities which did. Which is right and proper. The 10th Amendment reminds us that power not delegated to the Feds, nor denied to the States, is properly a State power.

Inisfad's avatar

Watergate was a deep state coup to ensure Nixon would resign. It was too close to JFK’s assassination to kill another president.

JohnAZ's avatar

Yup, in retaliation for the gold standard being floated and the Intelligence communities reaction to the recognition of China. The crappy ending of the Vietnam war did not help. 58000 folks was not enough for the MIC.

Great sentiment, but it has to start on the local and state levels as Mr Soros has amply proven albeit in the wrong direction.

UncleBob9's avatar

At least 75% of us are unwilling to help Trump, either because they either hate him and everything he stands for (either real or imagined), ir because they're too obsessed with their own shit to stick their necks out. Now that I tjink about it, that figure is probably closer to 90%. Meanwhile, the alliance between communists, Islamists, and Democrats is licking its chops at tbe thought of remaking America in their image, with each group firmly believing it will be the ultimate victor.

Skenny's avatar

Indeed, if Fauci had not been a US government employee, he would have been prosecuted as a war criminal by now.

Another thing that has become clear with the diary entries, and which James touches upon:

It seemed that Fauci was like millions of others obsessed with Trump, and "getting" Trump. But the psychotic self-adoring diary makes clear that he was consumed with himself and aura farming. He had no concern for the damage caused by Covid and the associated response; he was obsessed with being associated with Julia Roberts and Joan Baez. He's as crazy as a rabid pangolin.

Ben R's avatar

I just ran into a complete imbecile still pushing the Trump said to drink bleach lie.

Cankerpuss's avatar

Just a few days ago I saw some idiot woman sitting in her car with a black mask on. She was alone in her car. It was 99 degrees here. I know, the covid virus is a super virus. Immune to sunlight, heat and gravity. And it lives for 20 years on surfaces.

Fauci should also be punished for the countless mental illnesses he caused in people, in addition to those who were harmed or killed by his evil leadership.

Steve's avatar

Sadly, there's not much in the way of a crime. Offering his professional opinion is not a crime, and if forced to answer, his lawyers should stress that was what he was doing. The other stuff, like developing a bioweapon, is going to require proving intent.

But I would not mind in the slightest chumming the North Atlantic with him. Or doing a real tarring and feathering, complete with the 3rd degree burns.

Hugh Wayne Black's avatar

Malpractice is a crime, albeit generally considered civil. Medical practitioners have been sued into oblivion for less. Of course, I would never accuse Fauci of being a medical practitioner- a con-man, grifter, hoaxster, etc. without resorting to profanity.

Cankerpuss's avatar

"prove it" they will say. They can't prove it. So, he walks off into retirement flipping us off and laughing in our faces. Amazing isn't it?

Skeptical Actuary's avatar

A friend of a friend made that same comment on facebook a couple of days ago. I gave her a "fact check" link. That one is so dumb you can find liberal fact check sites that debunk it.

Kathy S.'s avatar

I am really hoping that some country or countries haul that murderous freak into an international tribunal.

Do we imagine that the intelligence services of countries around the world don't know where that f*cking virus came from? You and I, Joe and Jane Citizen, may beg for answers like dogs begging for scraps from the dinner table, but you can bet that the world's top intelligence agencies already know all this sh!t. I guarantee Vladimir Putin knows way more about the Fauci/Baric/Daszak gain-of-function activities than we do. The whole world suffered from Operation Covid, so, when are the afflicted citizens of the world gonna get pissed off enough to demand retribution?

Anon E. Mousse's avatar

I have never understood for a minute how it unfolded during the Covid crisis that there was not a peep from the gay community that fought so assiduously for treatment during the plague years.

JohnAZ's avatar

Yeah, AIDS damn near killed them all. It did kill all the hemophiliacs.

Cankerpuss's avatar

Yep. Not only did he get away with it, he's collecting a pension of $400K per year plus the millions he siphoned off Moderna. The depiction our host provided in his essay today, of Fauci, is very apt depiction.

"Who in this land was not mortally depressed watching Rand Paul’s Senate hearing Wednesday starring Dr. Fauci?"

And yet another example of the waste that is the US Congress. Utterly and completely useless. A totally neutered body, devoid of any authority or purpose. Their committee meetings are worthless. The US Congress is the biggest waste of space ever to inhabit the hallowed halls of the US Capitol building. Even if they hold the rat faced fink in contempt, then what? The Congress can't send anyone to prison.

More evidence of how inept the US Government has become. Too big to accomplish anything. The webs are too great, entangling everyone and everything and nothing, not a damned thing that would benefit the people and bring justice can ever be done.

A poem my husband, Christian Naggiar, wrote over 3.5 years ago:

Pandemic Amnesty?!?!

A pandemic amnesty...Are you kidding me!!??...

Why is it that the ones who do the most wrong...

Are quick to sing the same old song...

Of course they are the first to say...

“Let’s move forward, don't look back, it’s going to be OK”...

Forgive and forget?? But they never apologize...

For the cruelty, name-calling, and all the lies...

Accusing us of killing grandma and grandpa! Just to summarize...

Many families and friends no longer speak...

No sign of remorse for calling us freaks...

A pandemic amnesty? You must be joking...

By telling us to take the high road, you're only poking...

The bear, yet you dare...to say the information was not all there...

All this time, you didn't seem to care!!...

Repeating opinions and views...as facts!...

And the fake news...made you heartlessly react...

Pandemic amnesty??...seriously!?...

Not one independent thought in your head...

Telling us if WE didn't get the "vax", YOU would be dead...

Now denying...instead of trying...

To apologize for all the false things you said...

"A pandemic of the unvaccinated"…remember those words??...

We do, that's all we ever heard!!...

You wanted to make us feel...

Like killers and terrorists, but now it's no big deal??...

Pandemic amnesty?...You still don't see!...

V passports, mandates, people getting fired...we are so sick and tired...

Kids forced to be jabbed & wear masks, or they cannot attend school...

Now you want amnesty for being a tyrannical fool...

House arrest for the unvaxxed, trampling our Constitution...

Businesses destroyed under threat...of imprisonment, we did not forget...

That was your solution?...Dividing Americans like never before...

With lies, propaganda, fake news and more...

We don't believe what you tell us anymore!...

Pandemic amnesty? I thought it was a parody...

You really think you have nothing to apologize for??!!...

Ron Neff's avatar

Your husband sums up the situation quite nicely with both poems. And.....one thing that is evident now is that because your husbands views and mine were censored at that time the millions of patriots who questioned the bat shiff crazy stuff coming out of DC were only vilified in order to keep the hesitant doubters from also asking questions. No amnesty for those horrible people.

Kelly Reardon's avatar

Thank you, Ron.

"No amnesty for those horrible people." YES!! 100%

Suzy Cue's avatar

This repetitive posting of your husband’s poem is getting stale. Just sayin’

Kelly Reardon's avatar

Thank you for revealing the type of person you are...Just sayin'

Suzy Cue's avatar

I like the poem. It’s just that it’s everywhere I look. A bit of overkill.

P.S. You’ve no idea what ‘type of person’ I am.

Mtone's avatar

Surely you can easily scroll down to the end of the poem.

I don’t usually have time for comments and this is the first time I’ve seen it.

Kelly Reardon's avatar

So what if you have seen this poem a few times?? Other people may not frequent all the same substacks as you do...they might be seeing the poem for the first time here.

Why can't I post a poem (that some people have thanked my husband for writing and me for posting), without someone like you attempting to influence me to self-censor??

I'm glad that you say/write that you like the poem...but that makes it all the stranger that you would attempt to influence who else besides you is able to read the poem.

Who are you to determine what others should or should not be able to read??

YOU have seen the poem before & you don't want to read it again...That's fine! You could have just skipped it...but instead, you decided to scold me for posting it (to try to prevent others from reading??)

P.S. Contrary to your claims, unfortunately, your attempts to influence me to self-censor absolutely reveal the type of person you are.

Mtone's avatar

First time I’ve seen this poem. Thank you for sharing and thanks to your husband for creating this treasure.

Kelly Reardon's avatar

Thank you for your kind words, Mtone!

Steve's avatar

I, for one, had never seen the poem before.

And if I had, I know how to use the scroll wheel.

Friendly suggestion? Let the criticism go. Some want to spread misery, sure, but some are just having a bad day, or are otherwise dealing with something that puts them on edge.

Kelly Reardon's avatar

Wise words, Steve. Thank you.

I will not give this any more of my time or energy.

Root Causes's avatar

You’re spamming it too much

Cankerpuss's avatar

I leave to our host to decide is someone's postings are becoming repetitive. I'm always amazed at how many people seem to take it upon themselves to police Mr. Kunstler's blog.

Cankerpuss's avatar

I haven't seen it before. Has it been posted here at CFN?

Kelly Reardon's avatar

I do not think I have ever posted this poem here at CFN before....but I am not 100% sure. (There is a small possibility that it was posted once before, on another CFN article, a while ago...but I don't feel like taking the time to go through past articles/comments to check).

I posted a second (different) poem here under this article as well, but it is further down in the comment section. But some people in this comment section have pretty poor reading comprehension skills...they don't seem to be able to tell the difference between 2 different poems...

Cankerpuss's avatar

There is a nasty element that hangs around the comment threads of CFN. To be sure. It's best to simply not engage them.

A one-trick pony of hate for Jews and Israel?

You certainly have no love of America and are about as deep as a puddle and of far less use.

Here's to hoping you stub your toe this morning.

Hannah Arendt used the phrase "banality of evil " to describe how very ordinary functionaries sitting behind desks commit atrocities simply by following or even giving orders while shuffling papers with numbers on them.

Btw, the name "Fauci" in Italian means "sickle maker," and we all know who carries a sickle.

Jerri Hinojosa's avatar

Hey, fellow word nerd. I was happy to read: “But when they foundered in 2024”. The use of “floundering” instead of foundering is a literary epidemic and I have a vaccine idea. Whenever a person says “floundering”, everyone in ear shot should flop themselves on the floor and try to flip over. The humiliation will flatten that curve in 2 weeks.

Ron Neff's avatar

I have no doubt that Trump would fight to his last breath to keep our country from being stolen for the DSA and the Dem/Marxists but in order to do that the Supremes will have to decide what is or is not allowed. Sorry to say, I have zero faith in John Roberts and the leftists on the SC and.......not much more faith in the recent additions to the Conservatives on the SC. And.....expect that. as always, the MSM will be the mouthpiece for the Dem/Marxists or are we just going to start calling them DSA or The Communists?

JohnAZ's avatar

What is scary to me is when Trump pulls from the pool of Conservatives in the country to fill positions, they shed their sheep’s clothing and turn into the Deep State wolves they really are. Over and over and over.

Scott's avatar

In terms of judges, he needs to stop listening to the federalist society and start listening to article three project recommendations. This is probably happening. I'm sure Trump is not to happy with ACB in particular

Ludmila Lavrova's avatar

After all, it was the deep state that appointed Trump president.

JohnAZ's avatar

Not hardly. He was elected by folks that fear socialism. However, saying that, something is pushing him towards the Deep State?

Will Trump actually hurt MAGA hopes this fall with his vacillating? Is the country finally over the cliff, in spite of MAGA? Can anything or anybody stop the decline? Vote right, decline continues but slows, vote left, like pouring gasoline on a fire as the gimmes proliferate.

Why work when you can sit back and let a government support you. All you have to do is vote Left. Wait until that Left takes away your freedom.

Lugh's avatar

He's no populist. That should be clear by now with his, Affordability is a Democratic scam, line.

John Schrauth's avatar

At some point Trump will summon his inner Andy Jackson and ask if Mr. Roberts has any means by which to effect his "rulings."

Cankerpuss's avatar

I don't know, JS. Trump is Trump. But is he Andy Jackson? I doubt it. Andy Jackson was a different bread. I don't think there has ever been a tougher, meaner, harsher man born to this earth than Old Hickory. Love him or hate him, he was a badass.

Steve's avatar

IMO, Trump vastly overestimates his skills as a negotiator in terms of matters of state. In his business, if someone is not amenable to a deal, Trump walks away and finds another deal to make. That's not really an option where he is now, whether we are talking making a deal with Democrats, Republicans, the administrative state, the judiciary, Iran... pretty much everything in his ambit now.

The beautiful design that the Founding Fathers left us is continually defaced by statements such as, "AOC will be the Democrat candidate for 2028." A beautifying make-up applying video generator to lead??? And prior to that they offered up Kamala??? At least it looks like "Sparkle Beach Ken / Psycho's Patrick Bateman" Gavin Newsom is being cleared from the game board.

Ron Neff's avatar

We can only hope that "Sparkle Beach Ken" is off the game board but the problem is that the Dem/Marxist bench is quite deep with similar ----totally unqualified people who have accomplished absolutely nothing worthwhile in their life other than getting elected to some elected or appointed office. Look at almost everybody running on the DSA or Dem Marxist tickets for anything and they have zero useful life experiences. Look at mayor, guv, senate or representative hopefuls. Total zeros. The Founding Fathers would seriously suggest a large purchase of rope for use on these idiots.

GAVEMartin's avatar

I hear you. Many of these "elected" officials can't seem to read or count. The good news is the current "election system" is not long for this world and with the money being tracked we should be able to tamp down the number of dim-wits that get through to the offices. We need fewer "offices" locally. The fraud is spread across our communities like a layer of peanut butter.

Hugh Wayne Black's avatar

Sacrificial lambs get slaughtered, not rewarded with $millions in graft nor do they get assigned a staff who gets paid gubmint salaries to actively search out and apply for awards like Fauci had at his disposal.

This is my question as well! It is not a hard question to come up with, so I am doubly perplexed: why has the question not been voiced more often and more vociferously?

IMO, control of the global situation is not in the WH. Trump is trying to pull it back into the US and having a tough time doing it because the Deep State is globalist.

Name a globalist organization and they are probably involved.

One thing I have learned is how non- influential the office of president really is.

And what kind of globalist? The UN type or the Zionist type? The triumph of either spells doom for America and the West.

Personally I still find having three coordinate branches of one government one of the most simple, yet brilliant, ideas in all of human history.

The beauty of it.

I find it hard to believe that Fauci was illegally funding gain of function viruses in a Chinese lab without the blessing and direction of a higher power. Likely the CIA, but to what end?

Assuming the US Government was aware of his activity, and that this activity was being done with China, my guess is they were trying to release the virus to "prune the hedges", i.e. get rid of the elderly who were more likely to succumb to the virus, thus saving both countries billions in health care costs, or.... they wanted to interfere in the 2020 election by allowing the expansion of mail-in ballots, etc., or.... both.

Peabody's avatar

With these type of ops, years in the making and requiring vast coordination, I assume there are many agendas. One that’s often overlooked is it was an exercise in gauging the gullibility of the average person. The unfortunate answer they got is ridiculously high. Also the willingness for people to both follow tyrants unquestionably and become petty tyrants themselves. Same answer.

Lugh's avatar

Yes! Thus Democracy is a joke; a scam run by the elite since nothing is more easy to move than the mob. Thus Democracy is not Democracy. America was not set up to be a Democracy and that's a good thing. The ascendant economic elite got hold of our education system in order to convince people otherwise. Obviously only a few should be voting: White males of proven character with a record of service.

JohnAZ's avatar

Used to be you were drafted to put in two years of service for the USA. Vista, Peace Corps or military. When that died, the decline in pride in America started. Today’s youth are too stupid and inexperienced to vote. Why do we have kids wait until 21 to smoke or drink. To allow them to mature to handle both responsibly. Now let’s talk about voting.

Hugh Wayne Black's avatar

Worse yet, many Democrats are advocating for lowering the voting age to 16. Jeez! I remember me as a 16 year old… 🥴

Lugh's avatar

Nice. One caveat: About one in three women in the Peace Corps ended up getting raped. Don't send women to these horrible lands. Let them do their service here at home. Either that or early marriage.

Lugh's avatar

Well that's the provision the Founders put in. We could do a bit better. No sense people buying land just to vote. Financial solvency, a clean record, and a record of service. Testing to see if you know the basics too.

The WSJ opined that Fauci hasn’t done anything that should land him behind bars. Here are a few things that they should consider: he lied about the efficacy of Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine, resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands of; he lied about the efficacy of the MRNA vaccine and its safety, leading to the deaths of thousands; he misled the country about the need for lockdowns, causing enormous economic damage, destroying small businesses and the people who owned them and worked for them.m; he destroyed the education of millions of students.

These weren’t all mistakes. They were deliberate lies for his personal benefit or the benefit of his political allies.

Elizabeth Holmes went to jail for defrauding investors. Her lies didn’t actually kill people like Fauci’s did. Yet, the WSJ doesn’t think he belongs in prison. Why?

Bookoodinkydow's avatar

I’m saying the disconnect between the WSJ and you is that the WSJ has serious journalists who understand what happened, what didn’t happen, what is a crime, etc.

Thank goodness Fauci and his ilk were thrown out, and now the FDA is overseen by folks like RFK who tell you the truth about ivermectin and covid like… well…

You, admittedly, don’t know what you’re talking about. Therefore, you simply discount what I presented because you don’t like the implication. By the way, the WSJ may not agree with my conclusions, but I doubt that will disagree with the facts.

Fauci's diary is over a thousand pages of him masturbating to a photo of himself. Somehow you expect a power-mad genocider who wreaked havoc and death on the world to have at least a few deep thoughts on the ramifications of his actions, but no, he's as shallow as a puddle, gushing and cooing and preening.

And clearly unused to 'the process is the punishment' applied to himself. I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I am so hungry for justice that even the crumbs taste good.

$$ quote: “the Covid-19 episode and the operations around it, were aimed at setting up conditions to get President Trump bum-rushed out of office in favor of the vacant and pliable tool that was “Joe Biden?” “

Contend that was the whole purpose of the Covid scam in the first place; just an easy, convenient way to get rid of Trump. All the mail in balloting was not codified by legislative action which - in the various states - it is necessary to be considered law. No, it was just rushed thru willy nilly with the media banging the drum over “safety”. No questions were asked nor allowed to be, after all “it was THE MOST secure election in American history.”

Well - if you believe that - then I’ve got some terrific ocean front property for sale in AZ cheep!

complex Craftsman's avatar

Oh but it was 'the most secure election in American History ', the outcome, in advance , in their favor , that is , because as " Joe Biden " pointed out " We have , I believe , created the most extensive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics " . Its all a variation on something that Mr Kunstler often often touches on in his indicting articles about this den of clever thieves whom have held sway over our national political conversation for so long / slimy double talkin " Loya's " , 'Lawfare Ninjas' in Kunstler parlance , like Bill Clinton with his " it depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is " or " at this point what does it matter ", or "we've got to sign the bill into law to find out what is in it "and other assorted master works of linguistic slight of hand . Billy Shakespeare's character in Henry the sixth actually had it right by accident when he offered " first thing we do lets kill all the lawyers " . I suppose those true believers still left out there will also claim like Gemini just did to me about Biden's voter fraud organization comment , that Molly Ball actually just misspoke( to the tune of how many thousand of words ?) when she penned the article titled " The Secret History Of The Shadow Campaign That Saved The 2020 Election " for Time Magazine publication .

Are we all sufficiently Howard Beale yet? Because time is running short and the window of opportunity will not stay open forever because they build the tools with which to lock in a techno authoritarian state as we speak . WTFU America , come out of your hypnotic stupor spell spun by these nuero linguistic masters of deception . The hour is late , and thankfully late for me to have to live thru much of it .

As in PA, it was not codified, but put in place by the judiciary.

What the heck happened to this country? How did the entire judiciary, DC crowd, and press end up being so Left of center.

In a republic, enough disagreement inside parties, Fetterman for example, is required for compromise to happen. When 100% of Democrats just rubber stamp what the DNC and their leaders say, the “bipartisan” ability to find common territory is impossible. We have RINO traitors crossing to the Left with everything that Trump wants, but with one exception, no Democrats. Ever. The republic that was the USA has failed, it is 1856 all over again. One side needs to win and the other destroyed, or at least put into history’s warehouse. Blues vs. Reds, globalists vs. MAGA, communists vs. capitalists, let’s get it on. But be prepared, what if the South had won?

Anon E. Mousse's avatar

With respect to the coalescence to the left, it may be something as simple as the old question about why the thief robbed banks. It's where the money is.

Until very recently the Democrat party was quite wealthy, in ways direct and indirect. Candidate Harris pushed out billions during the few days when she was installed as candidate. Now the cupboard is bare, or very close to bare.

Grieve not, however, for if there is one thing that Democrats are adept at doing it is getting their hands on other peoples' money.

This would be a South American "dirty war." The Civil War here was fought between two nation states. The Confederacy had an elected legislature, it's own currency, diplomatic corps, foreign relations and foreign ambassadors, it's own military etc. This would be Normie being attacked by a Sendero Luminosa, or Antifa, Jose Marti Brigade, Sandinistas, what have you from the shadows, and also aligned with our long list of enemies, many hoping to help destroy us and come in and take what's left. You are in my opinion very correct in the 1856 breakup of the Whigs and Democrats with party realignments analogy.

JohnAZ's avatar

In the book, April 1865, the author presented the idea that if Lee had chosen to go guerrilla instead of surrendering, the war would have gone on forever. We always talk about socialism never succeeding, his observation said that guerrilla war has never failed.

A civil war in the USA will be strange but deadly. We are divided, not geographically, like 1860, but urban and rural, with the suburbs being rural. Every election shows the split. So if the break comes, it will either be short and sweet, with the rural side just cutting off the cities and when the shelves run out, the end comes. Or the cities emptying out to take from the countryside, which could become very bloody. Imagine WMBH with the elements organized with social media.

Left of center? You think they're classical Communists? They love money and want it all for themselves and their class. Nothing Leftist about that you silly goose. They use Leftist propaganda to control the voting mob. Can you at least get clear about that much?

Steve's avatar

While true, that's what leftism/socialism has always been. There's never been a leftist movement that did not have at least an implicit nomenklatura, because as nonsensical as the ideology is, it requires managers to direct society.

Yes, it doesn't work. Thus Communist Russia has become Fascist, North Korea a monarchy, and China, National Socialist. These work!

North Korea is not working they are starving people to death.

A people riddled with parasites.

China has merged Communism and elements of Capitalism based on greed.

As long as they keep people making junk for absurdly low wages, undercutting everyone else, it works.

Their environmental standards are so low everyone will be dying of cancer at younger and younger ages.

The moment living standards rise to a certain point, and people demand better, China will collapse.

"Who in this land was not mortally depressed watching Rand Paul’s Senate hearing Wednesday starring Dr. Fauci?"

I wasn't depressed because I wasn't dumb enough to watch it. Because it's all theater. Have we seen one arrest over Covid? One arrest for Russiagate? Government's MO is to put the population at each other's throats with all these big "reveals" and "scandals" that are really nothing more than teases. It's cover to distract you from everything else they're actually doing.

I didn't watch it either. I have much more effective things to do than watch the clown show that is the US government. That's why I frequent Mr. Kunstler's Substack and read it every Monday and Friday. Thanks James Kunstler.

Was Dr. Fauci an agent of the sinister underworld not unlike “The Man From Uncle” (1964-1968) antagonists in the evil THRUSH organization — THRUSH, the abbreviation for the ‘Technological Hierarchy for the Removal of Undesirables and the Subjugation of Humanity.’

Where are Napoleon Solo (Robert Vaughn) and Illya Kuryakin (David McCallum), who worked tirelessly to fight evil doers, when we really need them. THRUSH was portrayed as an international criminal organization that aimed to dominate the world through their technological advancements. Who were the COVID-19 operatives?

I was a teenager then too — and I am sure that most of it went over my head. Yet, that theme, powerful (evil) forces in the world, resonates today. Conspiracy theories abound and I have never given them much credence but the odds of mere coincidence (COVID, elections, the left’s will to power, diminished institutions) are implausible — the truth will always out.

Hugh Wayne Black's avatar

Wasn’t it ironic that Napoleon Solo (coolest badass secret agent name ever, BTW) and Illya Kuryakin were USA and USSR agents working together to thwart a much more sinister force? This, in a show produced during the height of the Cold War?

that is simple; the COVID-19 operatives were (are/is) the Medical/Industrial Complex. If it were only a simple confluence of Hospital Chains and Big Pharma money. It goes much deeper and includes Red State farm interests, grain processors and the corporate food industry that are rich off shelf-stable junk. And Blue State media and Madison Ave advertising. They all make money together calling you sick, and worse . . . imposing illness on you and your family.

As the Dems continue to demonstrate, they are truly and completely anti-American and the most pressing danger our nation and patriotic citizens face. Dem merger with the CPUSA, or simply adoption of their manifesto, including potential genocide of their opponents, is now open and obvious. Watching the leftist MSM rush to defend the indefensible from Fauci only reinforces the total rupture of trust between the denizens of reporting fakery and citizens not woke and deranged. The deranged leftists are forcing us into a very dangerous time so take care to assure your safety and that of your families.

JohnAZ's avatar

Hmmm, anti-American? I do not know what that means anymore. Anti-20th century American?

What concerns me more than anything is that America has mutated into the monstrosity that the DSA represents, that the majority of the people, the controllers, are now so dependent on the State that we are indeed a copy of the USSR or Germany or Japan pre-WW2. Just read their proposed doctrine, a totalitarian state out of control.

Wait, WMBH?

And yet in Michigan the Republican candidate is trailing the square faced man jawed female Democrat by two percentage points. The Democrats are alive and well. They have re-grouped and are still a force that is yet to be reckoned with. The Republican Party has yet again pissed away another two years where the people gave them the legislative and executive powers and what have they done? They couldn't even pass the SAVE Act. Fucking Republican filth. No better, no worse than the Democrat filth.

I argue that partisan politics are "completely anti-American and the most pressing danger our nation and patriotic citizens face."

My husband, Christian Naggiar, wrote this poem over 3.5 years ago...His "dramatic" reading of this poem in a video uploaded to YouTube over 3.5 years ago resulted in 2 strikes & YouTube removed the video.

Here's the poem:

Safe and Effective?

"Safe and effective"…Do we all remember those words?...

Repeating them over and over again, that's all we ever heard...

Now that we are allowed to say what we knew back then...

When the shots first came out...so many were full of doubt...

But we couldn't speak up or we would be kicked out...

Of social media and even our job...

All because we refused to follow the mob...

"Safe and effective"…Do you still believe?...

Many people still do, and I can't conceive...

Of what's going through their brain, if they have one at all...

Maybe they will learn after they take the big fall...

"Safe and effective"…Are you serious right now?...Please tell me how?...

You're still taking the shot...even though...all the evidence shows...

It does not...keep you from catching or spreading covid-19...

Don’t tell me you could not have foreseen...

All the disabilities and death from an experimental "vaccine"...

The damage caused by all the mandates is absolutely obscene...

"Safe and effective?"…At this point you're a fool...

Forcing kids to get the shot or they can't go to school?!?...

Giving in to this big lie...without asking why...

"Safe and effective??"…More data keeps coming out...

YOU are all the guinea pigs, without a doubt...

Many of you are just finding that out...

That the FDA and Big Pharma asked for 75 years...

Before releasing any data, hiding our worst fears?...

Something is very wrong around here...

Alienating and humiliating us if we didn't take the shot...

And yet they are NOT...safe or effective...I think we all know by now...

Yet they forced so many of you to take the jab somehow...

The mandates were such a bad call...

But to Big Pharma and our government, it was the best decision of all...

The amount of money they made is absolutely disgusting...

Many people will die because they were trusting...

Our so-called medical and pharmaceutical professionals…such a betrayal...

That proved for so many to be fatal...

All By Design...They have known for a long time...

There’s been a spike…of young and old alike…

“Dying mysteriously,” along with aggressive cancers increasing, & more...

They are purposely destroying Humanity at its core...

I lost my sister to turbo-cancer 18 months ago. She was pressured to get the vax. I have friends that were so gung-ho to get the vax that they traveled miles away to get it. One has myocarditis, one has rampant lung cancer, one suffered Guillian-Barre Syndrome, then a stroke, and had to be persuaded by her doctor not to get yet another booster. And God help you if you ever question their actions or Fauci to them.

Darrell Koerner's avatar

Sorry about your sister and friends. May we live to see Fauci behind bars.

William Bogert's avatar

Four friends of mine, all from the same intermarried family, took the vax. All four dead within 3 years, all from pancreatic cancer.

Cankerpuss's avatar

Interesting. On the flip side. My brother-in-law developed lymphoma cancer and he completed his chemotherapy treatments right around the beginnings of the covid hysteria. He got every covid shot and every booster and still gets his annual covid vaccine. It's been 6 years and the man runs the St. George Marathon (among others) every year and is still going strong.

Honestly, I don't know the truth about the covid vaccine. One one hand it is killing people. On the other, it isn't killing people. All I can trust is that I didn't take the damned concoction. I'm still a pure blood and I have confidence that my immune system, you know, the one given to me by my mother, will continue to serve me well until I don't need it anymore.

RMRDVM's avatar

The picture is ghastly, but accurate and if one could see into the spirit realm, the rest of him looks equally creepy. Listening to his MSM defenders, they gloss over the part where he contributed to millions of deaths. This wasn't him just as a mouthpiece, he was actively involved.

THEN THERE's that charming disease they called AIDs that sprung up in the '80s (as he took the reins of NIAID), which was MITIGATED by AZT. 'Ya, just kill them sick ones and the disease goes away.' What, was he raised on a chicken ranch?!?

The first time I heard one of his COVhoax presentations (his forehead 3" above the podium) in '20, I thought, "this guy flunked basic immunology." The 2nd time I listened it occurred to me that 'this guy was purposely filling the ppl's heads with nonsense to confuse everyone'...and when confused, ppl tend to blindly depend on good ol' gov't 'experts' and follow like sheep. THIS SHOCKED ME, especially because this guy was Trump's pick to lead US through it. The worst of it was that ppl were encouraged to flock in for Nasal DNA swabs (the ultimate identity theft) and then the 'toxic slurry' injection, setting up to destroy the immune system (ala, AIDs).

Judy Mikovits told it all on this guy - total weasel. We have found the enemy, and it is us (got me kicked off fb => no loss.)

Cankerpuss's avatar

It was all about fame and fortune for Fauci. This psychopathic fucker feels nothing for what his actions inflict on others, animal or human. I wasn't shocked by any of it and I am still not shocked that that little sumbitch is laughing at this nation. Even the so-called mighty "Congress" of the USA is powerless to do anything with him. Rand Paul looked like the kid in the Oliver Twist saga asking the school ministers for another bowl of gruel.

Pathetic. All of it. American government has become an absurd and unbelievable joke.

paul Vincent zecchino's avatar

Agree, completely. Robert Malone, M.D. said Fauci knows little of immunology, less of virology, and is incompetent as an M.D.

All his edicts were cynically calculated to 'make the monkeys dance, the Elites' old trick played on the serfs, until they could shoot them with the vaccine.

We knew from the outset that this was a hoax. One of the first tells was the hyperbole, 'death rate of five, no ten percent!' 'Spy satellites detect massive cremation fires of covid victims in China!", 'Chinese citizens dropping dead in the streets!'

Who drops dead from a headcold or any other bug? Very few. Bugs drag us down with fatigue.

Cardiac arrests and strokes drop people in the street. He was lying the whole time.

It was very frustrating and disappointing seeing President Trump standing next to this little creep on the dais.

Does it matter as long as his advisers know their stuff and he listens?

RMRDVM's avatar

Because of course, we should always believe some random advisors. If you have no clue about how human life works, how the hell do you choose advisors?

Stupid ass Malone was "advising ppl to get the [toxic slurry injection] for the first year". Hence, he obviously has no understanding of immunology and the basic principle that you don't EXPERIMENT on a populous with an untested biological product, as if a bunch of expendable lab rats. By the time the 'shot' came out it was VERIFIED that the 'virus' was no more lethal than basic flu. And now we have the statistics on just how damaging that injection was. 'Oh, well, oopsie'...but Malone remains a darling to stupid ppl because someone titled him a celebrity uber-doctor. He's just as guilty as Tony for promoting the FRAUD. Real doctors don't make rookie mistakes.

Medicine is f'd up at the level of basic education, that is where the fix MUST be instituted...not by ol' RFK patching up a few problems, palliatively.

I had forgotten about the nasal swab bullshit.
