An article that won’t age well

It’s going to be hilarious to see the Holocaustians do a complete 180 as soon as the conclusive evidence for Democratic election fraud is accepted as proven by the mainstream, given the historical equivalence presented in this Washington Post article:

Scoff. That’s what we did years ago when we each first heard about Holocaust denial, as a Holocaust historian and the child of a survivor, respectively. Dismissing it as the historical equivalent of flat-Earth theory, we reassured ourselves that the Holocaust has the painful distinction of being the best-documented genocide in the world. Who could claim it did not happen? But we soon discovered we were wrong to laugh at it, as the falsehood crept into classrooms, books and even international relations. We have learned — the hard way — to take it seriously.

That is why in recent weeks we have watched with alarm the birth of another powerful disinformation mythology: the false conviction pushed by President Trump and his enablers that the 2020 U.S. presidential election was stolen.

We had wondered whether the definitive vote of the electoral college and the declaration by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) that Joe Biden was the president-elect might provide a final end to Trump’s electoral fraud fantasies. But he has instead redoubled his dangerous disinformation crusade, reportedly even probing the use of the military to further his bizarre theory that the election was stolen.

Call it democracy denial. As students of history, we do not make this comparison lightly.

Consider their implied metric: if the reported results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election were fraudulent, then the Holocaust never happened. I wonder how many Holocaustians are willing to take that bet today?

Important blog concepts

Things that you should know if you wish to comment here. They are inspired, of course, by my favorite scene in the late, great Umberto Eco’s Foucault’s Pendulum.

  • Inquisitional autoimpedimentation: the art of asking me for tech support in order to be able to comment on the blog.
  • Pertinaxic adverselectational taciturnitation: the science of silencing yourself by regularly taking positions that are so predictably contrarian that you get yourself banned.
  • Atromonomaniaical exiliation: The art of removing yourself from the commentary pool by exhibiting an obsessive fixation on a single subject, regardless of the topic being discussed.
  • Civilostentatious animic angustiation: The act of putting your psychological trauma on public display through your commentary.

The Nashville bomb

Pretty much everyone agrees that the bomb at the AT&T building is most likely somehow related to the post-election conflict. Some see it as a successful attack on the NSA’s cybersecurity infrastructure, other rumors suggest that it was a failed attack that was interrupted. Either way, the bombing, combined with the shootings in Miami, Texas, and Portland, appear to suggest that the anti-Trump forces are getting increasingly desperate as the Trump team proceeds with its operations.

The mayor of Nashville’s reaction was certainly strange. He looks and sounds relieved, as well as inappropriately amused by the bombing.

This is not a bad time to make sure that you’ve got two weeks of supplies prepared and on-hand, and to minimize your public exposure. War is already being waged inside the United States, and because it is being fought by a wide spectrum of means by an unknown number of allied factions on both sides, it’s very difficult to know where the hot zones are.

All at once

Rudy Giuliani says Team Trump is accelerating the program:

Starting after Christmas,” the challenge to the validity of the Nov. 3 presidential election results “is really going to blow up,” Rudy Giuliani told listeners in a portentous Christmas Day episode of his podcast Common Sense.

“Because the evidence that these crooked television networks, newspapers, Big Tech and the leadership of the Democrat party have been giving you is false — and you’re gonna find it out all at once,” said Giuliani, President Trump’s personal lawyer. “It’s gonna be very shocking to the country.”

Pay no attention to anyone saying “X must be done by Y”. The only date that matters is January 20. 

Merry Christmas

 “Here is my servant whom I have chosen,

    the one I love, in whom I delight;

I will put my Spirit on him,

    and he will proclaim justice to the nations.

He will not quarrel or cry out;

    no one will hear his voice in the streets.

A bruised reed he will not break,

    and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out,

till he has brought justice through to victory.

    In his name the nations will put their hope.”

– Matthew 12:18-21

There are many messages contained within the miracle of Christmas. But I suggest that the most significant one, and perhaps the most-needed one this particular Christmas morning, is the hope that was given with the dawning of the Light of the World.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Escort or arrest?

An interesting report out of LAX…

I’m currently at Los Angeles international Airport (LAX) and Congressman Adam Schiff was just being escorted back out of a terminal with about 15 LAPD/Airport police!?

If true, that sounds a little heavy for a congressional security team. And I am reliably informed that they do have holding cells in airports….

UPDATE: I don’t know how legitimate this link is, but the name and age appear to be correct:

ADAM BENNETT SCHIFF 60 BURBANK, CA, 91501

From Wikipedia: 

Adam Bennett Schiff (born June 22, 1960) is an American lawyer and politician who has served as the U.S. Representative for California’s 28th congressional district since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, Schiff is currently in his 10th term as a congressman, having served since 2001.

UPDATE: If true, could be significant.

Adam Schiff was taken from LAX international airport to the Los Angeles FBI building and has not exited since going in a little after 10:00 a.m. this morning, my FBI source is telling me! 

UPDATE: I’d say it is looking increasingly dubious at this point.

Boris cucks, Britain chained

To precisely no one’s surprise, the British Prime Minister cucked and agreed to the EU’s terms:

Boris Johnson today declared that a Brexit deal has been done after four years of desperate wrangling – with a furious propaganda war already underway. The PM has made history by sealing future trade terms to avert a chaotic split when the transition period ends on January 1, after Lord Frost and Michel Barnier thrashed out a 2,000-page text.

A Brexit deal is still better than no Brexit, but all this does short-sighted agreement accomplishes is to push forward the inevitable next conflict between the British people and their would-be European rulers. 

No place for fear

Least of all on this, the eve of eves.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

― Ronald Reagan

We are watching it happen in real time. We were taught by Boomers and The Great Generation about how evil the Soviets were and how awful it was that they were reporting on their neighbors, no we’re reporting on the neighbors for breaking the rules and having a party. With family. 

How could they fall for the propaganda they wondered…. We are almost exactly 29 years to the day after the Soviet flag was lowered for the last time over the Kremlin. Fear is a hell of a drug.

― Spacebunny

I spoke with a young Christian man today about a battle for his church that he has been waging, and winning, over the last year. Perhaps the two most important things to keep in mind are these:

  1. The Ride Never Ends
  2. We are not given a spirit of fear. They are ruled by one. So don’t ever hesitate to call out their lies, to expose their evil, and exploit their spirit of fear.

The coming river-crossing

 AC summarizes the recent Byrne interview, which is full of explosive details that may or may not be accurate:

Patrick Bryne does an interview and it was pretty much a bombshell interview. It is a two hour interview, but I have summarized all the salient points here. Again, it is Patrick Bryne, who I feel is likely a spook reading lines from a script, but these lines may be from Q’s and Trump’s script, so it is no less important. First he says they have full electronic tracking of proven fraud, and as one example, he says they have 100{e61d147451bc60549e96d95b5c07be35845e0345eab7ed5d54cc3d49f812ab5c} evidence showing a Dominion Machine in a voting center had a wireless access card installed which was connecting to a smart thermostat in the building to jump on the internet where it was connecting to a computer located in a building in a city in China where state officials for that swing state had major connections to a Chinese company. He says they have an entire binder four inches thick filled with data and hard evidence of incidents like that.

Second he says the upper level staff under Trump are trying to thwart him, and in the meeting with the President and Flynn, Trump’s own White House legal staff would deny that something Trump wanted could be done, and then they would have to pow-wow to come up with a reason why it couldn’t be done. He also said they have cut off President Trump from his allies, refusing to let everyone from Sidney Powell to Mike Lindell get access to him. He said Trump ordered Sidney Powell be named a Special Prosecutor and given a TSCI clearance, and for his staff to give her whatever she needs, and now the staff won’t even let him know she is trying to meet with him or make contact. He says he has never seen anything like it. It was very reminiscent of Reagan ordering an attack on Iran, twice, only to see nothing happen.

He says there are two more stories about the fraud he has not told, one which is massively bigger than the thermostat story and blows it away, and another which he called the MOAB of all stories, from which there is no coming back. He basically said they will be released at the right time….

The interviewer asks Bryne about the idea Pence is legally required to reject slates of electors with questionable certifications, and Bryne made an amused smile, and tilted his head in a way which said, he felt the guys proposing it had their hearts in the right place, but that wasn’t how this was going to play out, and they were spinning their wheels for no reason. It implied he knows the plan, and that is not it. He then made comments to the effect that this wasn’t about Trump winning now – it was about exposing the election fraud in a way that it could be fixed, and prevented from ever becoming as corrupted again. He also seemed to think this will be over by Jan 6th.

This has obviously never been about Trump winning a second term. That’s just a very small, but necessary element of the primary objectives to protect the US Constitution, restore free and fair elections, and remove the evil actors. Read the whole summary there.

Speaking of swampy and disloyal White House staffers, the New York Times reports a potentially informative communications anomaly.

On Tuesday, White House officials sent an email to staff members about departure procedures before a new administration begins Jan. 20.

On Wednesday, a new email: “Please disregard the below message. Updated information will be shared in the coming days.”

Trump vetoes NDA omnibus

The President is on fire of late.

I am returning, without my approval, H.R. 6395, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 (the “Act”).  My Administration recognizes the importance of the Act to our national security.  Unfortunately, the Act fails to include critical national security measures, includes provisions that fail to respect our veterans and our military’s history, and contradicts efforts by my Administration to put America first in our national security and foreign policy actions.  It is a “gift” to China and Russia.

No one has worked harder, or approved more money for the military, than I have — over $2 trillion.  During my 4 years, with the support of many others, we have almost entirely rebuilt the United States military, which was totally depleted when I took office.  Your failure to terminate the very dangerous national security risk of Section 230 will make our intelligence virtually impossible to conduct without everyone knowing what we are doing at every step.

The Act fails even to make any meaningful changes to Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, despite bipartisan calls for repealing that provision.  Section 230 facilitates the spread of foreign disinformation online, which is a serious threat to our national security and election integrity.  It must be repealed.

And he’s just getting warmed up….
