George Rebane
A zealot is one who identifies intimately with his message, and opposes all efforts to reasonably falsify the message because doing so would also falsify him.
A brief compendium of current observations for the record.
Conservatives are (fascists, racists, white supremacists, … pick one or more) and work constantly to have government limit individual freedoms, diminish America’s liberties, and promote an autocratic government – so goes the progressive/Democrat/lamestream narrative. This is witnessed daily and well documented in progressive activist literature like ‘Don’t Think of an Elephant’ by George Lakoff. The latter is actually a best-selling leftist communication handbook into which is marbled the Marxist/socialist manifesto. What the leftwing elites count on is the ignorance of their audience who cannot connect the dots between an autocratic state and big government based on central planning and control. This deficiency prevents them from seeing that all conservative efforts in governance and public policy are directed in exactly the opposite direction – a minimally funded smaller government with fewer laws and regulations based on federalized maximum local control. Such governments cannot generate and maintain collectivist public policies which need a massive government to enforce and implement. Nevertheless, this Big Lie continues.
America’s Left and their Democrat Party public face are desperately attempting to pass federal voting legislation (HR1, ‘The Voting Rights Act’) that will foster and facilitate the entrenchment of a political monopoly based on Marxist/socialist ideology. The selling point, hysterically touted by Team Biden, is that America’s current election laws limit voting rights, especially those of protected classes. The evidence to oppose this attack on constitutional federalism is abundant and readily available, but totally buried by the lamestream media. Only conservative outlets inform their audiences of how the states’ voting laws compare, and about public attitudes that favor policies which restrict the voting franchise to American citizens, and minimize opportunities for election irregularities and fraud. (more here) Our Left tells Americans that such voter integrity policies are racist/fascist/etc designed to limit voting access to minorities, when nothing could be further from the truth. Nevertheless, this Big Lie continues.
Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine have fallen victim to Mammon and politics of the most reprehensible, insidious, and deadly kind. Both medicines have been widely used worldwide as a prophylaxis and treatment for a number of maladies, including Covid – extensively reported in these pages – but proscribed by our federal government and big pharma. The former to establish precedents and new avenues of government control, the latter to keep effective off-patent medicines out of reach so that high margin patented medicines remain the only alternatives to combatting the pandemic. The effectiveness of IVT and HCQ have been demonstrated in countless studies and clinical cases. It’s now so bad that Covid patients on death’s door cannot be administered either medicine by court order (more here).
The death rate of Covid ‘vaccines’ is another scandalous cover-up by our federal government. In the program to maximize vaccinations, the data on vaccine-related deaths is withheld by the CDC and the FDA. No vaccine is entirely safe, and every one has its own mortality rate due to various complex – mostly anaphylaxis – reactions to the prophylactic. According to government data, the death rate within 14 days of being vaccinated for standard flu is about 120 per 100,000, and for shingles it is about 21 per 100,000. It turns out that for Covid, the equivalent death rate within 14 days of getting jabbed is 190 per 100,000. When this rate is applied to the millions of people vaccinated, then the Covid vaccines have killed over 388,000 Americans alone. And with the incidence of breakthrough infections, the efficacy of the vaccines is yet to be determined. One thing is certain, no government agency wants to talk about this, and all continue to stonewall legitimate queries submitted to them. (more here and here)
The destruction of the FBI by the Left is almost complete – they are now being repurposed as the nation’s new Stasi. As evidence, consider that today the FBI finally acknowledged that last week’s attack on the Texas synagogue was an act of Islamist terrorism. They were the last to know what was immediately obvious to the man on the street across America when informed that one Malik Faisal Akram was the attacker who demanded the release of Aafia Siddiqui, another convicted and jailed Islamist killer. AG Garland did the best he could to bamboozle the American public as long as he could before national ridicule made him tell his FBI lackeys to announce that the attack was “a terrorist-related matter”. No kidding Kemosabe.
A more standard law enforcement fare for today’s FBI is launching domestic terrorism investigations of parents who go on public record to oppose local school boards about the content of the curricula – e.g. the tenets of CRT - taught to their kids. On such matters the FBI is right on the spot ferreting out those subversive parents who don’t toe the line laid down by leftwing dominated teachers unions. Gotta get those parents out of the way of our educators who are concerned first about their students right after they have their pension negotiations in the bag. Actually, there may be an issue or two, like paid days off for Covid safety, that may still consume their attention before they get to the kids.
[18jan22 update] Open and free critique of government is a fundamental principle upon which America was founded. And the continuance of that right has been the mainstay of our republic since its birth in revolution, which itself is the ultimate critique of government by its citizens. All roads to tyranny start with the state proscribing the critique of government. We in the United States have a long history of criticizing our government, its policies, and actions both domestic and foreign. Everyone has exercised that right, built into our founding documents, without second thought of suffering retribution from any institution of government. This is not to say that it hasn’t happened (e.g. the IRS going after conservative 501c3 organizations). But when such illegal retributions have been discovered – usually uncovered by an alert media - they have been roundly rejected by all Americans, resulting in public censure, ending of careers, and even legal actions against the perpetrating scoundrels. Those days are gone. Today, firmly on the doorstep of autocracy, we have the Democrats in power openly deploying federal intelligence and law enforcement organs to punish critics of its rogue and radical politicians and policies, and even those opposing state and local leftwing authorities illegally mandating laws and regulations about schools, the pandemic, academe, border porosity, elections, and corporatist enterprises that seek government favor. (more here) What portends even worse for the republic is that a large share of Americans now favor such government reprisals that formerly were the hallmarks only of communist and fascist governments, and tinpot dictators of backward (e.g. shithole) countries.
So Emery has no problem with Leftist "mobsters" but only takes issue with Right leaning protesters. Leftist riots good.
Repub demonstrations BAD.
So Emery, when the Right takes their bitch to the sourse (the rabid elected) That's criminal in your mind. But the burning of innocent business is just fine. That's protected violence.
You sure have a warped sense of "justified".
Oh.. That's right. You supported BLM in Nevada City. Marxist is as Marxist does.
How many guns were seized in DC Emery? Kinda hard to have an overthrow while UNARMED.
How come the FBI instigators have yet to be arrested?
How come the ANTIFA scum was turned lose, and little old ladies wound up in solitary confinement?
I know, tough questions for Capt. Crickets.
You just keep whining about the meaning of mob.

Of course I'm not confusing indictments with convictions. You never uttered a peep about the Trumpers chanting "lock her up" with Trump conducting the chants. Trump is now leading the same chant about the good Doctor Fauci at his Arizona rally last week with them chanting "lock him up". Not a word from you about whether leading a chant to lock someone up without an indictment trial and conviction is appropriate coming from the former top law enforcement in the country who wants to run again.

"No, I didn't say that. Look what I said. Go back and read what I said and tell me if you think I called anyone who voted on the side of the position taken by Bull Connor that they were Bull Connor? And that is an interesting reading of English. Yeah, I assume you got it in the journals because you like to write."
Last week, Biden said in his speech about voting rights, "Do you want to be on the side of Dr. [Martin Luther] King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?""
So yes, you DID say that.

Paul.
I did not read your quotes. No need. The seditious conspiracy was in the news a few days ago with the DOJ releasing (unsealing) parts of indictments and numerous legal scholars and former federal prosecutors weighing in…..a few days ago. A week ago? Maybe less. Maybe my feeds are three days ahead of your news feeds.
The indictments came 24-48 hours after the Dems’ heads where exploding because the public had simply tuned out of the Jan 6 hearings (not a priority or concern to most) and the always angry Lefties saw the Jan 6 hearings not doing what they wanted them to do (convict Trump so he never can hold federal office again) and then started screaming at Garland to do something now!! He dropped the indictments lickedy-split.
Paul, I know you have been busy, busy, busy doing the freelance producer thang, but you act like you just discovered the news today or yesterday.
Please tell me something new. We know the Dems only have two arrows in the quiver: make 2022 all about Jan 6 and tar ALL Republican candidates with Jan 6 AND the other arrow is the good ole standby…..the race card as exemplified by Right to Cheat Voting Act.
Not surprising to us without TDS, the Black voters have the highest percentage FOR voter ID at 79% and the overwhelming majority of voters polled do not consider the the filibuster or the ensuing Right to Cheat Voting Act one of their top five concerns.
Talk about Jan 6 all you want, watch CNN, read the Wa Post or NYT and all that stuff, but realize that all the talk in the world cannot mask one big thing when the voters fill up at the gas pumps or go to the grocery store or your new windows you ordered will not available for months. Cardboard works ok if you ordered the new windows and counted your chickens before they hatch. :). Cardboard and tape.
Inflation is the silent killer. Less and less care about Jan 6 and the majority of US citizens do not trust the FBI. Or government. Congress stands at 9% approval, which shows a very healthy distrust of our institutions as envisioned by our founders. Nancy stands quite low in the polls, and Joe Biden is barely above her by an eyebrow.! One point.
I will tell you something new..again, from last week: The then 18 year old who bought the firearm for Kyle Rittenhouse plead guilty in court and received a low class misdemeanor. $2,000 fine for supplying a minor with a firearm and long time no come see. Corrupting a minor or something. Bottom line: the prosecutor wanted a conviction and the court wanted the money. Like a vehicle infraction where you pay the fine, don’t due the time….and to put icing on the cake, no traffic school! No one cares with the Biden economy, inflation, the biggest embarrassment to the USA since the Bay of Pigs, and our President’s rapidly declining mental health. Half-wit he was, half-wit he be.

Thanks Walt for reminding me of another BIG thing on voters minds, especially Hispanics, Latinos, Blacks, and the unprotected folks from Massachusetts to Seattle, from New York to San Francisco, from Philly to LA.
Paul, add crime to the biggest kitchen table list of concerns who find CNN and NPR more boring with each passing day. The Summer of Riots with the decriminalizing of crime….well, talk about Jan 6 till the cows come home. No worries. CA will still be blue. And Frisco and the stink-asses from Berkeley.

The reason that our Good Democrat Leader Biden is doing so poorly is because Paul Emery is such a bad follower. With followers like Paul, it explains why Biden is in the crapper.
‘Joe Biden's Awesome First Year’
“It’s reached the point where MSNBC is permitting guests like Donny Deutsch to say things like, “He seems old.” In a panic, Party spokestool Paul Begala went on the network this week to deliver a real-life version of the old Mel Brooks “the peasants are revolting” joke, saying “the problem for the Democrats… is not that they have bad leaders. They have bad followers.”” Bad, Paul, bad. Try harder.
———
How great was life for Joe Biden a year ago? MSNBC’s John Heilemann compared him to Lincoln; PBS White House correspondent Yamiche Alcindor said the return of the Democrats “felt like we are being rescued from the craziness and now here are the superheroes to come and save us all”; Rachel Maddow went through “half a box of Kleenex” in joy; even Chris Wallace on Fox said Biden’s half-coherent inauguration speech was “the best inaugural address I ever heard,” JFK’s iconic “Ask Not” included.
“Biden looks bad. During the campaign, when he was challenging strangers to pushup contests and doing sternum-pokes in crowds while nervous aides bit their lips, you could make the argument he was merely in steep mental decline, which was okay. Against Trump the standard of “technically alive” worked for a lot of voters. Biden now looks like a man deep into the peeing-on-houseplants stage, and every appearance is an adventure.“

We do not have a failure to communicate. We have been hearing you loud and clear.
“Covid may be mutating into a kinder, gentler form, but there is nothing kind or gentle about the measures that Democrats are prepared to impose on those who disagree with them. Rasmussen finds these shocking numbers:
* 59% of Democrats favor legislation that would confine all unvaccinated people in their homes, except in case of emergency.
* 48% of Democrats think the government should fine or imprison individuals “who publicly question the efficacy of the existing COVID-19 vaccines on social media, television, radio, or in online or digital publications.”
* 45% of Democrats would favor requiring unvaccinated citizens to temporarily live in designated facilities or locations.
* 47% of Democrats favor a government program using digital devices to track unvaccinated people to ensure that they are quarantined or socially distancing from others.
It is hard to say which of these measures is most outrageous. Confining people to their homes; tracking them digitally to make sure they do not interact with others; being moved to temporary camps if they are unvaccinated–all of these proposals can fairly be described as fascist, and all are supported by either a majority or near-majority of Democrats.
But perhaps most chilling is the willingness of 48% of Democrats to throw people in jail who question the efficacy of existing vaccines. In the first place, such thinking evinces a total disregard for the First Amendment and the broader social value of free speech. In the second place, those who question the efficacy of vaccines are right. They don’t keep you from getting covid, they don’t stop the spread of covid, and such effectiveness as they have doesn’t last long. Those facts are, to my knowledge, undisputed, and yet by 48% to 46%, Democrats favor imprisoning those who mention them.

“Covid may be mutating into a kinder, gentler form, but there is nothing kind or gentle about the measures that Democrats are prepared to impose on those who disagree with them. Rasmussen finds these shocking numbers:

But, if you look deep enough into the abyss you will uncover some nefarious motive behind this glaring Red Flag omission. Why, why, why? Yes, I was trying to hide something and I succeeded….until you sniffed it out. Busted.
What I was trying to hide from the reader, my American friend Paul, is reprehensible me hid it in a place you would never look. The second sentence, lol. Oh, you are a funny guy Paul. Keep those hits coming.
No worries Paul. The Union has deactivated that exact same post as presented here not once, but twice since last night, ROFLMAO. Not in moderation, but shut down, erased, done without a trace. Yes, Paul, you are in good company, you rebel you. I omitted the link at the Union because then it would have really got moderated. Don Rogers himself called Rasmussen a right wing outfit. :). Hugs, you big softy teddy bear you.

The survey of 1,016 likely voters, completed on January 5, 2022, found that 59% of Democrats support government forcing Americans to remain confined in their homes if they refuse the COVID vaccine. Only 17% of Republicans supported that idea with 79% opposed."

A variation on pop culture that was sung by 6th graders everywhere if you're the right age. Slightly different words.
You know, somebody really should write a thesis on kid parody songs. Along the lines of "I'm Popeye the sailor man, I live in a garbage can". It's a bit of cultural history that ends up in the memory hole due to lack of documentation. Of course, with the Wokesters rewrite of all things historical, that's the least of our problems.

There is only one poll ever taken that had 100% agreement. That poll question was “do you have a sense of humor?” Every body claimed they did. 100%. Yes, it was a subjective poll based on how one views themselves. o Can’t argue with feeling, but objectively I find it rather hard to find that sense of humor when glancing towards the glum lot. Everything is sooo dramatic. I need to bring out the big magnifying glass. The MOAD of all magnifying glasses.
With all their horse manure, there has to be a sense of humor buried in there somewhere. Or, at the very least, some sense of self awareness. We all have our blind spots.
“I was referring to Bi lls original post……Bad form indeed.” That is not a hill worth defending…if I was the author of that particular prose. But, what do I know?

FBI topic:
‘I watched the FBI become so woke it can’t call out terrorism’
“I was there for the genesis of the FBI’s transformation, when we ceased calling things what they are and began to use nebulous and ambiguous terms so as not to offend.
And my FBI experiences go beyond the tactical realm. I served in mid-level management and was appointed to an acting Senior Executive Service position. That’s the upper echelon of bureau leadership. My final position before I retired in 2016 was the special assistant to the assistant director in charge of the FBI’s New York office. Understand this to be “the last man in the room” when the leader of the FBI’s largest field division made critical decisions.
Here I was a party to FBI headquarters’ directives from Holder’s Department of Justice, where “radical Islamist terror” was hereafter to be referred to as indefinite cases of “combating violent extremism.” This generic term did not align with what we knew of investigations into the San Bernardino terror attack and the Pulse nightclub massacre.“

Aha. Did the FBI ever find the motive behind the Pulse Massacre, biggest one in the US at the time. AG Lynch said was because the shooter was an immigrant and jobs are hard to find and have a difficult time until it was revealed he had a job. Then it was because of the shooter’s isolation….until a it was revealed he had a wife and an uncle here. If fact, the uncle got here as a result of Schumer’s brainchild…the 50,000 immigrant lottery. Then homophobic was ruled out. Last I heard, they never found the motive. On possible theory was he was a closet gay and hated himself…thus he killed gays. I dunno.

"Exactly right Gregory. It was a vanity poll to achieve desired results."
If it was wrong, there'd be a poll from a left wing group to disprove it.
There won't be.
Why? Because they don't want to know. Just like you don't want to know.
Midwittery.

Barry, Chain of custody, auditable or not, gives me the Willies
Put it in the mail and it might sit unmolested, or it might get steamed open and remade, keeping my signature intact. There are no guarantees.
I take my ballot to the Rude Center Dropbox on election "day".

You got that right and Trump rants wont help you one bit -
Friday, former Clinton adviser Mark Penn reacted to polling showing only 17% of Democrats favored former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton being the party’s nominee if President Joe Biden does not run in 2024.
Penn told Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria” that the 17% is a “very weak number.” He added that with Biden’s approval rating at 39% and no enthusiasm around Vice President Kamala Harris, “the Democratic Party is in chaos.”
