No Innuendo Needed

AI generated image of Joe Biden

Holy crap, if you didn’t get Nazi vibes after watching President Biden’s speech last night, I have to wonder if we watched the same speech. Between the red backdrop, the hand gestures, the timing with the invasion of Poland, and the military personnel…all of it screamed Nazi Germany. The fact that its not photoshopped still baffles me. Innuendo is supposed to be subtle.

Seriously, who did it better?

Trump wasn’t immune to bad speeches, the worst being his speech early on at the Boy Scout Jamboree. But even this speech made me think “Sheesh, is Trump just that full of himself?”, not “Holy crap, we’re descending into an authoritarian government!” Plenty of people have commented online that Joe Biden just might be off his rocker. I thought it was worthwhile asking an AI what image was conjured with the words “Joe Biden,” and well, its probably not far off.

All the internet comments in the world won’t change the simple fact, as I pointed out during the Virginia elections, that unless you get out to vote, volunteer to help a candidate and donate money specifically to the candidates you like, nothing is going to change. Yet conservatives are far more likely to “go with the flow” and continue to not vote, not volunteer and not donate. Remember all the annoying Obama kids that incessantly knocked on doors? I do. I hated those people, but I bet that they helped tilt the election (that and running a crappy candidate in John McCain).

Joe Biden said all the quiet parts out loud on Thursday. There was no innuendo. It wasn’t subtle. It was in your face for all too see. He’s laid it out for you. So, what will you do about it?

The Biden Speech: It’s not Persuasion, it’s Justification

The Master: Oh, Now I can say I was provoked.

Doctor Who Utopia 2007

A lot of people seem to be looking at the president’s speech and asking why he would give such a speech.

Frankly I think all of this confusion is because people are thinking of it as either:

  1. A political speech to rally the base
  2. A speech to convince the American public that he is on the side of the angels

This is not in fact the case.

You see one of the problems with stealing an election and corrupting justice on a national scale to help cover it up is that the moment your enemies have control of any of the levers of government they have the ability to start getting to the bottom of things.

And God help them if there is a president in power who might appoint an energetic AG with not only the power but the WILL to investigate.

That’s why generally you don’t get the type of large scale steal that we saw this time around. It’s one thing to do something in a one party city or even a one party state. If there is very little turnover you don’t have to worry much.

But on a national level power tends to shift back and forth more frequently which makes what happened last time very dangerous.

I often say to people who say the stolen election stuff is only a “conspiracy theory: ” I’ll believe that the steal of election 2020 is a conspiracy theory when the people who say it’s a conspiracy theory stop acting like they’re part of a conspiracy.”

These people keep acting like they’re desperate DESPRATE to keep Trump out of office. Logically there is no reason to be this afraid of a single Trump term if it’s just a question of graft, or prestige or influence.

BUT if there is the fear of jail, or being broken. of being exposed, disgraced, of losing the comfort they have any tactic is allow.

In my opinion that’s what this speech was about, that’s why he was made to do it (He’s not rallying the base or getting ready to convince the public of a threat, he’s providing the justification to what his administration is going to do over the next two plus years to those of us who support Trump, things that just a few years ago nobody would have dreamed an American government would do to their own people.

If you think these folks have gone over the line or violated all the norms of the republic you ain’t seen nothing less. I suspect things are about to get a whole lot worse and a lot more repressive.

I could be dead wrong, it’s possible that this is just political ineptitude, they certainly have the manpower that radiate it, but I doubt it.

Update Bingo:

Democrats used the FBI as an attack dog to censor Americans on social media during the 2020 election

Most Americans had great respect for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.  That changed for the negative drastically during Obama Administration.  President Obama had a particularly bad habit of injecting progressive politics into all levels of the Federal Government, including law enforcement and intelligence agencies.  Other presidents had done this to some extent, however, Obama proved to be the undisputed grand master.  The FBI became an attack dog for progressives. 

President Trump tried in vain to drain the swamp.  He was unsuccessful at disbanding the deep state, despite his best efforts.  While Trump was in office the deep state  repeatedly tried to undermine his presidency. 

Conservatives and Libertarians claimed vociferously that the Deep State played a major role in the theft of the 2020 presidential election from President Trump.  Confirmation of this came this past week.  Check out this Newsbusters article for the details.

Zuckerberg went on Rogan’s podcast Aug. 25, and Rogan asked him about how Facebook deals with supposed “misinformation,” specifically highlighting the Hunter Biden laptop scandal. Big Tech censored the Biden scandal just before the 2020 election, an action which the Media Research Center revealed helped Big Media and Big Tech steal the 2020 election for President Joe Biden. Zuckerberg readily admitted that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) had pressured his platform to censor content.

Mark Zuckerberg elaborated in great detail about what took place.

“I mean, basically the background here is the FBI, I think, basically came to us, [to] some folks on our team, and was like, ‘Hey, umm, just so you know, like, you should be on high alert. There was—we thought that there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election. We have it on notice that basically there’s about to be some kind of dump of, of—um, uh—that’s similar to that. So just be vigilant.’”

“What we do is we have, um—if something is reported to us as potentially, um, misinformation, important misinformation— We also have a third-party fact-checking program. We don’t want to be deciding what’s true and false. And for the, I think it was, five or seven days when it was basically being, um, being determined whether it was false, um, the distribution on Facebook was decreased, but people were still allowed to share it.”

Zuckerberg then explained how Facebook suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story while the platform’s fact-checkers reviewed it. “The ranking on [Facebook’s] newsfeed was a little bit less,” Zuckerberg said. “So, fewer people saw it than would have otherwise.”

Zuckerberg then attempted to defend Facebook’s biased censorship. “We just kind of thought, hey, look, if the FBI—which, I still view as a legitimate institution in this country; it’s a very professional law enforcement — they come to us and tell us that we need to be on guard about something, then I want to take that seriously.”

Rogan inquired if the FBI had asked for censorship of the Hunter Biden scandal specifically. “Did they specifically say you needed to be on guard about that story?” asked Rogan. “No. I don’t remember if it was that specifically, but it was—it basically fit the pattern,” Zuckerberg answered evasively.

The FBI’s response to this scandal, as documented in this Political Insider article, made this disturbing scandal so much worse.

The FBI issued a statement following Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s admission that Facebook limited exposure of Hunter Biden laptop news prior to the 2020 presidential election after receiving a warning from the bureau to be on the lookout for Russian propaganda.

In their response, the agency casually admitted it “routinely notifies” companies and social media platforms about potential threats.

“The FBI routinely notifies U.S. private sector entities, including social media providers, of potential threat information, so that they can decide how to better defend against threats,”

Representative Thomas Massie was absolutely correct with this tweet:

This is a grave violation of the First Amendment, something the Biden holds in contempt. Check out this article from the Federalist as proof of that statement.

Documents Berenson obtained during the discovery phase of the lawsuit he filed against Twitter illustrate how the government actively works to shut down free speech on issues of public interest. Berenson’s criticisms of the Covid vaccines, which he claimed were ineffective and possibly harmful, came exactly at the time when the federal government, as well as many states and cities, were using every available coercive means at their disposal to force Americans to take them. As such, his speech was deemed extremist and needed to be suppressed to save lives during the pandemic. 

Under the Fedora: Missing Those Pillows, Blackout Futures, Hot Air Countdown, Formally Common Knowledge and Betting vs Cutting

Bed Bath and Beyond make a big fuss about cancelling Mike Lindell and his My Pillow company for calling out the left on both the election and Jan 6th.

18 months later Mr. Lindell is still around and unwavering in his assertions, as for Bed Bath and Beyond:

Fast-forward to the present, and the former home goods giant is on the verge of financial collapse. In addition to the layoffs and closures, it was also forced to secure some $375 million in loans through Sixth Street Partners, a retailer-friendly lender. Bed Bath & Beyond also said it was prepared to sell off an undisclosed number of stock shares, which sent the share price straight to the gutter Wednesday in premarket trading.

As Dinesh DiSousa put it

I hope they like the bed they made for themselves.

Yesterday I talked about the California Law concerning selling 100% electric cars by 2035. There seems to be one small complication to this plan:

California’s energy overseer warned of blackouts starting Wednesday and urged residents to “avoid using large appliances and charging electric vehicles, and turn off unnecessary lights.”

Now remember this is taking place 12 years before the state’s mandate kicks in.

This is taking place at the same time they are blasting dams to save fish.

This is not going to end well for the state, but I’m sure that there will be a fair amount of people who get rich off the graft before reality kicks in and asserts itself.

In just a few more days Allahpundit will be leaving Hotair. If I recall correctly he’s been there from the start or if not from nearly the start.

There was a time when he would have been worth reading but like many others he was broken badly by Donald Trump and now when I visit hot air I make it a point to bypass any piece with is byline.

I’m sure he will find a place at the Bulwark or some other NeverTrump site where his current brand of “conservatism” will be welcome.

It will be nice to visit the site again and not have to deal with all the tripe that I avoid the MSM for. If I wanted the left’s line I’d be going there in the first place. As for Allahpundit, like Matt Drudge I wish him the best of luck.

What’s the old saying? What did socialists use for light before can also wants those thermostats set no lower than 78 degrees.

Called a Flex Alert, the California Independent System Operator says households should “reduce energy use from 4-9 p.m. when the system is most stressed because demand for electricity remains high and there is less solar energy available.”

“The power grid operator,” the notice says, “expects to call on Californians for voluntary energy conservation via Flex alerts over the long weekend.”

And not drive anywhere, I suppose, if you’re the owner of one of the nearly half-million plug-in EVs registered in the Golden State.

I had to laugh when I saw this headline:

Nobel Prize-winning German Biologist: Multiple Genders Are “Nonsense” and “Unscientific”

Now not to long ago this would not be a headline but a simple statement of fact unworthy of a story in any journal.

It is in fact still a simple statement of fact, but so many people have for their own reason pretended otherwise that the statement of this fact is practically revolutionary.

I suspect the say will come when we will have to purge the left’s nonsense from our society in the same way that Germany needed Denazification.

I suspect it will not be prety.

Finally I was listening to sports radio when they had an ad for Draft kings, the official betting partner of the NFL. They made it a point to mention that you had to be 18 to place a bet.

Think about that for a second. A young lady must be 18 to bet on an NFL game but you don’t have to be 18 for this doctor to cut our your breasts.

Yup this is the Left’s Post Christian America, enjoy!
