Da Techguy's (no longer backup) Blog

Yesterday I postulated DaTechguy’s 6th Law of Media Outrage which states:

The degree of protection by or attack of the media on any person is governed by the degree of danger and/or usefulness to the Democrat party’s electoral goals said protection or attack represents

And said that the NYT sudden “discovery” that the Hunter Biden Laptop was real meant the following:

But now it’s 2022 and Joe Biden is becoming increasingly a threat to the electoral prospects of the Democrat left. While nobody in his right mind actually believes he is governing this nation the sheer incompetence of those actually doing the job combined with the fiscal and foreign policy on his administration’s watch are at a point where disaster looms for the left if things continue.

So suddenly the Hunter Biden story instead of being a threat is for the left at worst an old story that can’t make things much worse or can be burred in the news of the war..

Of course at best it might be a means of removing the threat that Joe Biden is.

Meanwhile at American Greatness (via Insty) Roger Kimball sees the same thing with a tiny bit more clarity:

 I wrote a column for American Greatness called “The Coming Dethronement of Joe Biden.” In it, I noted that Biden’s appalling performance as president would sooner or later—and probably sooner, given the ostentatious nature of his multifaceted failure—lead to his removal as president. 

I should have added that it wasn’t Biden’s performance per se that would lead to his downfall. The problem, rather, was the way his performance was undermining his—and therefore his minders’ and puppetmasters’—political power.

Remember the last election wasn’t stolen FOR Joe Biden it was stolen for those who feared a 2nd Trump term might drain the swamp that they have happily thrived in and off of for decades. But now the useful idiot is no longer of use and no longer warrants the protection of the left

 I suspect that Joe Biden is being prepped for ejection. Exactly how it will happen I do not yet know. But he is on the threshold, or possibly has even passed the threshold, where he could appear to govern. His minders understand this. They must be the ones to replace him, otherwise they themselves risk being replaced, which would be intolerable.

Kimball also believes that Biden is not the only target here:

Obviously, Kamala will have to be dealt with first, and she will be. Look for some ground softening stories such as the Times just served up about the laptop. They won’t be long in coming. 

Remember all for the deep state, everything for the deep state and the prerogatives and power that comes from it.
