Snap Elections in France

MACRON ANNONCE LA DISSOLUTION DE L’ASSEMBLÉE

Après le score historique de l’extrême droite aux europeénnes, Emmanuel Macron convoque des élections législatives le 30 juin et le 7 juillet

Le Monde is reporting that due to the historic success of what is considered “the extreme right” in the European elections, French President Macron has dissolved the National Assembly in order to launch new elections at the end of June.

I suspect this may be in order to hold the elections before Russia defeats NATO and the people of France turn entirely against Clown World.

UPDATE: Macron tonight suffered a major defeat after Marine le Pen’s National Rally party took home a projected 31.5% of the vote following the country’s European Union elections. His Renaissance party meanwhile suffered one of the worst ever defeats for a party in French government, taking just 15.2% of France’s vote.

The Thumb on the Scale

The search engines are observably compromised:

The three major search engines—Google, DuckDuckGo, and Bing—have already been set up to favor Joe Biden.

The simple search queries “How to donate to Joe Biden” and “How to donate to Donald Trump” prove this bias. While some of the first place results can be excused by the fact that Trump’s results may have been obfuscated by current events, how is this not the case with Joe Biden, the President of the United States? He’s in the headlines, too.

It’s clear that these companies are putting their thumbs on the scales, but none is worse than Bing, which may as well call itself “Joe Biden’s campaign headquarters.”

The following screenshots exemplify the problem, but, again, none more so than Bing. All failed miserably when it came to Trump. How bad are these results when you ask for a donation page and instead get a news story about Trump being found guilty in NYC?

This is hardly a surprise, but it demonstrates how convergence is inevitable, particularly in tech. Unfortunately, none of the individuals with significant resources on the Right ever seem to place any value in providing non-converged alternatives, focusing instead on commentary and complaints about how unfair life is.

Guilty on All Charges

President Trump was found “guilty” on all 34 charges in one of the most absurd and obviously fake trials in history.

A New York jury on Thursday found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records — the first time a former U.S. president has been convicted of a crime.

The jury reached its verdict in the historic case after 9.5 hours of deliberations, which began Wednesday.

He’ll be sentenced on July 11, four days before the Republican National Convention. He faces penalties ranging from a fine to four years in prison on each count, although it’s expected he would be sentenced for the offenses concurrently, and not consecutively.

Clown World at its finest. Meanwhile, the DOJ still can’t manage to find anything with which to charge Hunter Biden.

The Shameless Hypocrisy of Clown World

As always, it is one law for the satanic clowns, another one for everyone else over whom they seek to rule:

The US is looking into how it could punish Georgia over a ‘foreign agents’ bill which was recently passed in the country’s parliament, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a congressional hearing on Wednesday.

Georgia’s Transparency of Foreign Influence Act would require non-profit organizations, media outlets, and individuals which derive more than 20% of their funding from abroad to register as entities “promoting the interests of a foreign power” and disclose their income and sponsors or face fines of up to $9,500.

The legislation ignited weeks of violent protests and clashes across the country, which is an applicant to both the EU and NATO. Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili vetoed the bill on Friday, but the gesture is considered to be largely symbolic, as the Georgian Dream party has a majority in parliament and is expected to overrule it.

“We are looking very hard at what we can do in response to that, and I anticipate we will take actions, the EU is looking at the impact on the accession process for Georgia, so I would anticipate that there will be things to come because of the impact this law may have,” Blinken told US lawmakers in Congress.

Blinken said the US is “very concerned” about the legislation, which he described as “right out of Moscow’s playbook,” and which “clearly counters” the Georgian public’s desire for “EU integration.”

Despite criticism that the legislation could be used to target the political opposition, the bill does not provide for criminal prosecutions, unlike the US’ Foreign Agents Registration Act, which has been in effect since the 1930s.

However, it’s not the hypocrisy that is noteworthy here, as that is a constant state wherever Clown World is concerned, hypocrisy being one of the core virtues of Clown World. What’s noteworthy is the extreme value the clowns place on their ability to provide external funds to their subversive agents acting within a polity. This is their primary vehicle for subversion, which they have utilized since invading India and “opening” Japan; one can even see it in all of the Minnesota politicians from the 1980s to the 2010s who were born, raised, and educated in New York City.

A city, a state, or a nation that prevents foreign agents from engaging in politics is one that can much more easily resist subversion and eventual submission to Clown World. Which, naturally, is why the Georgian law is being attacked by foreign agents in foreign countries like Antony Blinken, despite the fact that the USA has absolutely no right or business interfering with the parliamentary process in the sovereign and democratic state of Georgia.

Power > Influence

The latest attempt at a color revolution in Georgia will fail because everyone now understands what the price of failing to oppose Clown World regardless of the costs is:

The government of Georgia wants to put the country back in time to its old Soviet Union days, as it signed a controversial new “foreign agents” law that many believe will end Georgia’s young democracy.

Tens of thousands of angry protesters took to the streets of Tbilisi and other cities across Georgia to voice opposition to the new law and were met with a heavy response from Georgian riot police. Estimates vary, but nearly 200,000 people were out in the street on Saturday, a staggering show of force in a country of only 3.7 million people.

The capital has been on edge as angry protesters remain outside the Parliament banging against barricades and smashing barriers that surround the building. Violent clashes between police and protesters continue.

In a show of bipartisan support for Georgia’s struggle for democracy, a group of senators led by Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., and ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Sen. Jim Risch, R-Idaho, condemned the law in a joint statement, calling it “a dark day for Georgian democracy.”

The law requires citizens, non-governmental organizations, media outlets and other civil society organizations that receive over 20% in funding from abroad to register as a foreign agent with the Justice Ministry. The law will impose significant burdens and penalties that many human rights organizations believe will marginalize and discredit opposition voices and have a chilling effect on free speech.

This is, of course, the usual Clown World inversion. First, the USA has a similar “foreign agents” law. Second, people and organizations who are funded by foreign organizations are foreign agents. Third, everyone knows that these NGOs are nothing more than Clown World’s subversion vehicles. Fourth, these “angry protesters” are paid astroturfers; no genuine protest has ever erupted over a technocratic campaign financing law. And fifth, if corrupt U.S. senators are posturing about “democracy”, you know it’s evil nonsense.

Given the price in human lives that Ukraine has paid as a result of the successful color revolution there, it would almost certainly cost fewer Georgian lives to literally execute every single protestor without trial than to submit to the fake moral posturing, back down, and risk Clown World coming to power there again.

The Cost of Taking Sides

Russia is far from the only country that has rejected Switzerland’s false assertion of neutrality:

The leaders of Brazil and South Africa will not attend a conference on Ukraine to be hosted by Switzerland next month, reports have said. The summit, scheduled for June 15-16 at the Burgenstock Resort near Lucerne, is expected to revolve around Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky’s proposed roadmap for ending the conflict with Russia. More than 160 countries have been invited to take part, including members of the G7, G20, BRICS, and the EU. Russia, however, has not been invited to the talks.

China is another major BRICS member which presumably will ignore the Swiss meeting, according to Yury Ushakov, who is assistant to the Russian president for international affairs.

BRICS leaders won’t attend Zelensky’s ‘peace conference’ , RUSSIA TODAY, 17 May 2024

The rejection of Swiss “neutrality” by the BRICSIA nations should have been, but was not, foreseen. And if this isn’t a clear warning to the short-sighted members of the Swiss parliament who have unnecessarily trashed centuries of global confidence and goodwill in a vain attempt to appease the wicked gods of Clown World, at least it should suffice make the gravity of the situation obvious to the Swiss people. It means that voting for the proposed referendum on permanent constitutional neutrality, economic and military, is absolutely necessary no matter what one’s political preferences might be, and no matter what fig leaves and word magic are offered in an attempt to convince the people to let the politicians continue to redefine the concept.

Dominic Cummings Smells the Coffee

One of the UK’s top political minds has finally figured out that the UK is not going to win WWIII:

Former Downing Street chief advisor Dominic Cummings says Ukraine is a “corrupt mafia state” and that the west “should have never got into the whole stupid situation.” Cummings made the comments as he unveiled plans for a new ‘Start-Up Party’ to replace the Conservatives.

The former advisor to Boris Johnson questioned why the government was so slavishly committed to supporting Ukraine. Cummings asserted that the west had been hoodwinked into getting embroiled in an unwinnable war that has only succeeded in pushing Vladimir Putin closer to China and taught him “that we’re a bunch of total fucking jokers.”

“This is not a replay of 1940 with the pumpkin Zelensky as the Churchillian underdog,” he stated. “This whole Ukrainian corrupt mafia state has basically conned us all and we’re all going to get fucked as a consequence. We are getting fucked now, right?” he said.

A lot of politicians across the so-called “democracies” are going to be judiciously attempting to distance themselves from their mindless support for waging war on Russia over the last two years. Dominic Cummings is unfortunately too inclined to get the issues wrong on the substance – such as Covid and the mRNA vaccines – but his fine-tuned political antennae usually tell him what way the wind is blowing sooner than anyone else in the higher political circles.

Of course, it wasn’t the Ukrainian corrupt mafia state that conned the British people, it was the global satanists who still call the shots for both the Conservative and Labour parties as well as the UK media.

A Ticket, Offered

This is what it looks like. This is how they find out who is for sale and who is not:

“I just got a very interesting email. So for those of you who don’t know, I am a critic of the current economy. And recently, I’ve been posting my thoughts on the economy, and, and, you know, obviously, it’s not good. I’m not saying it’s Trump’s fault. I’m not saying it’s Biden’s fault.

I’m not saying it’s anyone’s fault. But obviously, Biden is president and the economy sucks. So, you know, naturally the blame lies on him. And some of these videos of me being extremely critical of the government have gone so viral that I was literally featured at 7 PM on prime time on Fox News the other night. And this morning, I got an email from someone claiming to be from the Democratic party.

And they said, what would your rate be to post positive videos about Joe Biden? And I replied back, honestly, I know nothing about the economy. I don’t pretend to know about the economy, and I know nothing about politics and I’d rather stay out of it. After all, I’m just a normal guy. I’m not a politician. I’m not a conservative or a liberal talking point. I’m just a normal person.

So they responded back, we understand you’re not a fan of the Democrat party right now. How much would it cost? I was like, you know what?

I wonder how bad they want me to post this. It’s $50 Grand. And they said yes. For those of you that don’t know anything about social media, I have another account that’s massive. And, like, For brand deals on my 3,000,000 follower account, I get like $5 Grand.

They offer me $50 Grand for a video on this account with only like 400,000 followers? I’m not gonna lie. I was very, very tempted, but I didn’t do it.”

This is why you should neither envy nor pursue what looks like mainstream success. Because it’s all fake and manufactured, and if you take the ticket to accept success on their terms, you will find yourself under their control.

They always make that first step very easy, and almost a no-brainer. Why not? What’s the harm? And yet, if you look into the hollow eyes and the weird, modified faces of the most successful, most famous people, they all look as if they are already in Hell.

Another Fake Election

This is one reason why I pay no attention to US electoral politics anymore. They’re more obviously fake than a Malaysian knock-off of a Louis Vuitton bag being sold on the streets of Paris. The media has now begun laying the groundwork for claiming, with a straight face, that the US electorate voted for the series of mask-wearing body doubles pretending to be Joe Biden.

Joe Biden is on course to narrowly win the American presidential election, according to a shock poll.

The US President is marginally ahead of Donald Trump in both the electoral college and the popular vote – but the campaign is ‘on a knife edge’, the survey found.

The polling suggests Mr Biden will win 287 electoral college votes to his predecessor’s 251 when the country votes later this year.

The survey by Stack Data Strategy, shared with the Mail, shows that Mr Biden is on track to win – despite Mr Trump being the bookies’ favourite.

It uses an MRP (multi-level regression and post-stratification) model which has been a more reliable predictor of election results in recent years.

We’ll see if they manage to get away with it again or not. But given how every Republican leader continues to “grow in office”, I find it difficult to believe that it makes any difference anyhow, given the probability that every election since JFK-Nixon has been “arranged” in some manner. The fate of Americans is now being determined in Moscow, Beijing, and Tehran, not in Washington DC, much less at the ballot box.

The Swiss Demand Neutrality

Clown World is going to face an uphill battle trying to convince the Swiss to abandon their historic neutrality now that they’re already seeing how abandoning some of their other historical traditions has worked out for them. Given that giving into US demands has already cost them both Credit Suisse and their postal savings system, one shudders to think what the price of choosing the wrong side in WWIII will be for nations such as Japan, South Korea, and Switzerland.

Switzerland is heading for a popular vote on its long-standing neutrality amid a debate ignited by the the country’s decision to sanction Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.

Activists and the country’s right-wing People’s Party, the largest in parliament, want to enshrine the position of permanent, armed neutrality in the constitution. In addition to preventing Switzerland taking part in any military alliance, the initiative also wants to block participation in non-military coercive measures, which would include sanctions.

The group behind the proposal submitted its petition, backed by more than 130,000 signatures, this week, though the actual vote won’t take place for some time.

Switzerland has traditionally refused to take sides in European conflicts, but decided to adopt European Union sanctions against Russia in 2022. According to critics, that was a departure from neutrality and jeopardized the country’s role as an international mediator.

On the other hand, corporate leaders have been increasingly warning that neutrality is harming the country’s business prospects. Switzerland has been blocking weapon shipments from Germany and elsewhere to Ukraine, drawing international ire.

The People’s Party said this week that there have been “targeted attempts to undermine neutrality,” citing the country’s adoption of EU sanctions against Russia. It said this has undermined the international view of Switzerland as neutral.

The government says sanctions are compatible with neutrality and is trying to revive Switzerland’s relevance by hosting on a conference on peace in Ukraine in June. Russia has already said it won’t attend the meeting.

Both Spain and Switzerland did very well to stay out of WWII. No doubt it will be even more beneficial to stay out of the unrestricted warfare of WWIII.

Considering that Clown World will almost certainly be comprehensively defeated and in full retreat by the time the referendum takes place, the usual arguments about the economic benefits and inevitability of neo-liberal progress toward eine Rasse, eine Welt, ein Reich should appear almost comically outdated by then. The fact that Switzerland has already lost its ability to play host to major international peace talks, to say nothing have having been named a hostile state by the foremost military power in Europe is also going to provide rocket fuel for the referendum.

I expect the government to do its best to pretend to fiddle with the laws, declare the problem solved, and argue that the people putting constitutional limits on its ability to take sides are now unnecessary, but given the way they’ve already played that card with regards to other issues, no one buys it anymore.
