There are two ways of looking at last nights exercise of the will to power masquerading as a speech by a senile old man:
The Ultimate Exercise of Berg‘s Seventh Law: Brandon, leader of a party whose acolytes have been dismantleing the rule of law nationwide, using administrative power to stifle opposition,and sending bands of thugs out to keep people in line,speaking from an SS-issue black and red stage flanked by Marines, painted half of America – his political opponents – as threats to democracy and domestic terrorists.
A Masterful Diversion: instead of talking about inflation, energy prices, a failing education system, unaffordable health care and education, catastrophic crime rates, the border crisis, national debt, the collapse of America’s foreign-policy, a nationwide mental health crisis, we are all now talking about Donald Trump.
And given how much extremism benefits from extremism, I don’t doubt for a moment that the Branden ministration is hoping last nights “Build back with Triumph of the Will“ address goads some less stable Trumpkin into doing something stupid, accompanied by lavish media coverage, to further deflect the nations attention.
I say, why not both?
Blaze, one of the original ideas of democracy was that government should be run with the interests and values of the common people in mind. Other forms of government ignored the interests and values of common people. It is a topic difficult to address in a blog comment of reasonable length, but I am informed by the Federalist papers. All sovereignty originates with the people, not the ruler, or the ruling class, or tradition. We are our own masters, with all that implies (my Protestantism is coming out, maybe). So you have American government directed by the people of America, God help them.
Does Biden risk a backlash after going on offense against MAGA Republicans in Pa. speech?
President Biden would have been better off sticking to a winning message that works and casts Democrats as the party that supports abortion rights, some analysts said.
rAT! Those faggots at USA Today have gone flaccid. They are casting doubt on #PedoHitler’s brilliant take down of MAGA vermin.
This can’t happen, rAT. The Regime is on the offensive. There can be no retreat!
Do something rAT. Post something someone else said about how badly the GOP is handling things!
So you have American government directed by the people of America,
Do you really believe that is true in any measurable way, UMMP? At least as regards anything that really matters?
It can be done, Blaze. The alternative is too awful to be contemplated. It would be the death of America.
You and I and others have, in the last few days at SITD, written some comments about the idea of nationalism as a governing philosophy.
I think that if you want a real-world example of nationalism, where every nation pursues its own interests with nothing to constrain them, and sees that its gains can only mean the diminishing of some other nation, you end up with Greece before it was conquered by the Romans.
Big polis’s eat little polis’s unless they are allied with bigger polis’s, and nationalism becomes empire.
Oh, shit.
Vulnerable Democrats try to avoid Joe Biden
I was afraid of this. Those smug MAGA vermin are threatening the Regime.
If only they could catch the domestic terrorist that threatened Rep. Swallowell, and left his name and phone number. A MAGA doing the perp walk would help right now.
UMMP, I’m not a believer that pursuing a national interest necessitates diminishing of some other nation. I certainly don’t advocate that.
The nations that are strong today all follow nationalistic policies. China; Israel; Japan; India; Russia, Hungary, Poland and the Baltic’s are homelands for their particular populations. None of them encourage migration, and in the case of Israel, make non-Jewish immigration virtually impossible.
Nations with populations that share culture, history, values, traditions and goals are the ones that will last.

What neo-cons refuse to acknowledge is, a plurality of the US population don’t care about the Constitution, the Federalist papers, what the founders thought or anything else any more…most under 30 don’t know anything about any of that.
We’re being controlled by feckless grifters, who are in turn controlled by people you will never meet, and who don’t want to meet you. People named Rothschild, Soros, Zuckerberg, Schwab, Kohn, Altman.
The border is open because these people want it open. Our culture is being destroyed because it enhances their control.
The country you all think exists out there is already gone, but y’all think you can vote your way back to the good old days.
Good luck with that.
The NW Wisconsin county I live in is 95% white & mostly working class. People here voted for Trump over Biden by almost 2:1. The particular town where I live resembles a miniature version of the Minneapolis suburb I grew up in, Fridley, but Fridley as it was in the 60s and 70s, not Fridley as it is now. The economy is a mix of ag & food processing, resource extraction (stone & wood), and retail.
Basically everyone here is white. The few rich people are white. The vast sea of middle income families and individuals are white. The poor people are white, and despite a labor shortage, there are a significant number of poor people in this county.
Last winter, to kill time, I worked a few shifts each week at a dollar store, so I know who the poor people are.
They are:
Young families, mostly led by single women with one or more children.
Old single people, or singles on disability.
Failed men. These are working class men who are unemployed or drift from low skill job to low skilled job. Alcohol is a problem with these guys. I had discussion with my manager once about these sad sacks. She knew most of them by name, they usually lived in a rented room, earned just enough to pay their rent, and buy some cheap food and some liquor. They worked until they showed up drunk one too many times or missed one too many days of work. Repeat until their rep is so bad no one will hire them, and then they go somewhere else.
My point is that none of these poor people can blame their poverty on racial oppression. It just makes for less social tension. If a guy is arrested after stealing a car or using a stolen credit card, Al Sharpton doesn’t show up to give a press conference, Ben Crump doesn’t fly in to represent the accused, BLM never hears about it.
So obviously I understand the appeal of Blaze Nzimande style nationalism.
But that boat has sailed as far as the US is concerned. For the US I predict a future of disunity and increased ethnic tension. Whoever thought that it was a good idea for the US to have an older population that is rural, white and (relatively) wealthy, and an underclass that is urban, poor, brown, and black should be shot.
^^ Trump didn’t uncover or empower anything; Trump merely acted as the latest conduit for America’s deep natural reserves of shittiness.
No one is making you live in America, Emery. I don’t think that you would be especially missed if you moved to some other country.
Rothschild, Soros, Zuckerberg, Schwab, Kohn, Altman.
Notice the obvious and deliberate absence of names such as Bezos, Gates, Koch, Brende, Clinton, Xi and countless others… It’s like if the world rid itself of the Jooos (even those who do not identify as such and hate them but had the temerity of being born into jewish families – sounds familiar?), all will be right. At least that is the ultimate BN fantasy which he undoubtedly would gladly turn into reality by personally manning the Zyklon B valve.
Woolly—There are a lot of broken people. But once a broken person became president, they all started to celebrate their brokenness.
I think that Blade tends to think in racial & ethnic terms. I tend to think in terms of social class. The problem is not Jews, but the bourgeois, whose values, in the 20th & 21st centuries, tend to overlap more and more with Jewish values. Small families, “cosmopolitanism,” value formal education highly, a heavy financial investment their children, value social class and its markers higher than loyalty to place, etc.
My “anti-bourgeois” feelings make more sense historically. For example, the reformation in England elevated the bourgeois class at the expense of the old feudal system of birth and land ownership rights. But you can’t blame the Jews for the English Reformation, because Jews had been expelled from England in 1290 and weren’t allowed to return until 1657.
^^Emery is talking about Biden again. Seriously, did you even read the New Yorker expose on the Biden & Sheen families I linked to a few days ago? They make Trump’s family look good. Grifters and drunks & mountebanks, the lot of them.
Haven’t you noticed that Hunter seems to wants to damage his father? Sheesh.
Funny how just about all MAGA people insert “Pedo” into their comments — go with what you know, I guess. It’s the 2022’s version of socialist or communist.

Maybe because democrats think its fine for adults to talk about sex with other people’s children?
In Mankato, Trump stepped up his rhetoric against Biden, calling him a “puppet of left-wing extremists trying to erase our borders, eliminate our police, indoctrinate our children, vilify our heroes, take away our energy.”
Speaking to a crowd of several hundred supporters outside an aircraft hangar, Trump alleged that a Biden victory would “replace American freedom with left-wing fascism.”
“Fascists. They are fascists,” Trump continued, though fascism is a form of far-right nationalism. “Some of them, not all of them, but some of them. But they’re getting closer and closer. We have to win this election. But the proud people of Minnesota will not let this happen.” ~ Donald Trump 2020
Wut. Were there endless discussions on cable news or SiTD? Public outrage? Yeah, me neither.
Probably because Trump speaks like this all the time, especially at his lie-riddled rallies, that no one thought it was worth that much attention.
Until a thoughtful Joe Biden said it.
“They are fascists,” Trump calls Joe Biden and Democratic party extremists
https://westchester.news12.com/they-are-fascists-trump-calls-joe-biden-and-democratic-party-extremists-42509191
Being unable to defend Biden and the Democrats from the charge that they believe it is fine for strangers — even men wearing dresses — to talk to other people’s young children about sex, Emery suddenly wants to talk about . . . Trump!
Wow, never saw that coming!
As I said earlier: Not the first time MBerg and his flock @SiTD has tried to pretend something in plain sight isn’t there.
^^and now reduced to spouting gibberish.
It’s kind of a predictable cycle with Emery, I call it the “circle of fail.”
Biden is right. Political violence is not acceptable, law enforcement should not be attacked, and public figures should not encourage rioting in the streets. The problem is that throughout the long “summer of love” of 2020, it was the Democrats, not the Republicans, who openly cheered while American cities burned, all but directly inciting deadly race riots in the belief that the ensuing chaos, directed at the spectres of “white supremacy” and police racism, would help convince the country to throw the Orange Man out of office.
Whether those riots count as “political violence” is largely a question of semantics. Unlike the January 6th riot, they were not aimed at a specific goal such as intimidating the vice-president, but they were a form of violence that was tolerated by political authorities for nakedly political reasons. So unanimous was the liberal consensus in favour of the riots that two editors were forced to resign from the New York Times after the paper published an op-ed by Senator Tom Cotton calling on Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act to restore order.

“I understand the appeal of Blaze Nzimande style nationalism.
But that boat has sailed as far as the US is concerned.”
Agreed. That’s why the days left to the US are numbered, IMO.
“Notice the obvious and deliberate absence of names such as Bezos, Gates, Koch, Brende, Clinton, Xi and countless others…”
The names I named are all in the leadership of the WEF; look it up, man.
Borge Brende is a politician. He was chosen as an enthusiastic face; he controls nothing. Clinton(?), Xi and countless others have nothing to do with the powers that be.
But, but Bezos is Jewish…how could I have left him out???!!! Because, like Gates, although he’s involved, he’s (as yet) a a B list player.
Instead of tearing your hair out, jpa, why not dispute any of the facts I being to light? It’s because you cannot.
I understand your knee-jerk reaction. But you’re a common sense fellow that is rejecting the truth… Trust me; if there was a cabal of Irish Oligarchs out there pulling the curtain down on Western civilization, I’d be all over them. But the fact is, that a tiny minority of the worlds population are swinging the wrecking ball. In media; in politics; in finance…and most are Jewish. That’s just a fact.
I actually admire Jews; they’re smart, they’re resourceful and they stick together right or wrong. Unfortunately, they’re involved in some heinous shit.
Change my mind, or deal with it.
“In Mankato, Trump stepped up his rhetoric against Biden, calling him a “puppet of left-wing extremists trying to erase our borders, eliminate our police, indoctrinate our children, vilify our heroes, take away our energy.”
Where was he wrong, rAT?
He also said Germany would suffer for their dependence on Russian energy; the German delegation smirked….they’re not smirking now. Trump was right on both occasions.
The names I named are all in the leadership of the WEF; look it up, man.
I did, where do you think I got Brende from? But I see you did not, because you did not include Gore and Yo-Yo Ma either. Should I copy and paste the entire list of BoT, MB and EC of WEF? Hmmm… no mention of Rothschild, Soros, Zuckerberg, Kohn or Altman. Imagine that!
BN, I cannot change history. But neither can you. You cannot change millennia of history which saw Jews enslaved, oppressed, exiled, exterminated, denigrated, villified and dehumanized. And yet we survived, Adn thrived. And were taken by the ideals that promised that everyone will be treated the same and that we would no longer be persecuted… right now. Which is what every soci@list dogma preaches but falls critically short in reality. In a fast-paced world, how do you reverse thousands of years of oppression and diaspora? 200 years (and frankly only last 100 counts) of the US experiment is not enough to turn the trend around. And it is anti-semites like you that make it that much harder for Jews to embrace the alternative.
I have asked you the question before and I will do it again – How Does Bringing up the Jooo Boogieman help keep fascism at bay? Do you expect someone to read what you wrote, gather up the brownshirts and go full Crystal Nacht in Crown Heights? Is that your solution? And I think we both understand that neither you, I, or anyone can change what Soros (who may have been born a Jew but today is a more virulent anti-semite than you are) or Schwab do. And while maybe not as rich or influential, there ARE Jews on the right side of history as well.
had to change the comment to get it out of moderation. I apologisze if the other one shoes up as well. The names I named are all in the leadership of the WEF; look it up, man.

I thought I fixed it, but my comment is still in purgatory
Trump’s Russian energy position copied Obama’s statements from 2014….
Obama tells EU to do more to cut reliance on Russian gas
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-eu-summit-idUSBREA2P0W220140326
“Trump’s Russian energy position copied Obama’s statements from 2014….”
Did they smirk at the Light Worker, too, rAT?
Did the Light Worker issue a statement of support of Trump? Perhaps tell the Germans to wipe their smirks off their smug faces?
Must have missed that.
Too bad Pedo Joe already gave our strategic reserve to China. Germany might have liked a taste…#sad
But enough of that, rAT. The mid-terms are at hand. What’s to be done about the traitorous MAGA vermin? tia, rAT!
Lock her up and build that wall. Tremendous policies.
To be fair, I would support, ‘Lock him up’ as a policy.
And lock up State secrets. Also a good policy
5th G&T kicking in, rAT? Nice
You know, I really don’t write many comments about Trump. My goal is to attack the people, like Emery, who attack Trump. It’s absurdly easy to point out that that Emery and people like him have no integrity. Hillary’s “secret server” is A-Okay because it wasn’t shown that the existence of the server had resulted in leaked intelligence, but the mere presence of documents marked “secret” in Trump’s possession should put him in prison. Stacey Abrams months long battle to decertify Brian Kemp’s victory over her is lauded, but anyone who questions Biden’s 2020 victory is an un-American fascist. And there are so many, many other examples of arguments made by democrats in bad faith. It takes real self delusion to simultaneously moan about GOP attacks on “our democracy” while condemning the Supreme Court decision that returned abortion and coal power plant regulation from judges and bureaucrats to actual elected representatives.
There are a few SC cases coming up that challenge the ability of congress to hand off its law making powers to un-elected bureaucrats. If the SC takes regulatory power away from un-elected bureaucrats and returns it to elected representatives, the people howling like mad dogs will be Democrats, not Republicans.
If you believe Biden, and virtually every Democrat, if Trump had somehow prevailed with his court challenges to the 2020 vote, you would think that President Trump, with 74 million recorded votes vs Biden’s recorded 81 million votes would have plunged the world into a new Dark Age. You know, just like the one that they predicted (and did not materialize) when Trump won the 2016 vote.
Remember the tantrums the Democrats threw in 2016 when they had to accept the democratic choice of the people? Riots in DC, unrest in big cities throughout the country? Hillary Clinton, too drunk or too pissed off to give a proper concession speech? The formation of a semi-official “resistance” movement to the Trump administration by establishment figures? The official abandonment of unbiased journalism? The effort to undermine the electoral college to keep Trump out of office?
JPA, I am afraid that under the long view of Christianity and the idea of the secular state it has spawned, there is no room given for Jews as the chosen people of God.
Their only hope for a future lies in the state of Israel. IMHO, nationalism is the hope of both Jews and gentiles.
MP, thank you.
emery obsessed with trump thinking if they kill trump they kill the movement
no dummy the movement came first hes not the leader just the public face
thats why biden put marines in the speech its a threat to kill us all
we need the home address of every federal agent authorized to carry a gun so when civil war too kicks off we can pay their wives and kids a visit
that’s how its done in a real banana republic mister presidnet
you sure you want to go thtere
I see that rep. Jamie Raskin thinks that master spy Donald John Trump may have distributed US top secrets around the world. Shouldn’t news reports about Jamie Raskin always begin with “Jamie Raskin, leader of the January 6 committee, who on January 6 2017 attempted to decertify Trump’s electoral college win . . .”?
“IMHO, nationalism is the hope of both Jews and gentiles.”
Exactly right. What I’ve been saying all along, MP.
Been 5 days now, since Eric Swallowell claimed a MAGA terrorist called his office, said he hated Swallowell, and threatened to come over and AK-47 him.
That’s as serious as it gets.
Said the caller gave his name, and of course they have the number he called from, unless he was using an encrypted sat phone from his bunker.
Pedo Joe just conducted a rally for Party members, warning them about MAGA terrorists out there, looking to topple Democracy. It’s us against them; no malarkey!
5 days have elapsed…..
So, where’s the fed SWAT snipers? Where’s the perp walk or the bullet ridden MAGA corpse?
WTF is going on here?
It all depends on the midterm elections. If Republicans do worse than expected, then maybe the moderate Republicans have a chance. If the Republicans outperform, the party goes further into the abyss. It’s the fact that their financial backers are not forgiving of failure. If the GOP fail, they lose the money.
There is no going back to pre-Trump, Emery, any more than the Dems can go back to pre-Obama. You remember the pre-Obama Dems, don’t you Emery? Against same sex marriage. Against illegal immigration.
This article from Gallup shows just how far left the Dems have moved in the last 2 decades, shedding conservative and moderate Democrats along the way.
https://news.gallup.com/poll/246806/understanding-shifts-democratic-party-ideology.aspx
“Bed Bath & Beyond laid off 20% of their employees on Friday. Yesterday the CEO defenestrated himself out of his lux apartment in Manhattan….evidently, the 20% was just a warm-up.
Was it Pedo Joe’s recession, or the boycott that ensued because of his company’s woke political statements?
Who knows? Who cares? They’re leaping out windows in NYC.
👍
I haven’t heard of anyone jumping out of windows from Trump Towers in Manhattan.
Maybe it’s the complimentary champies…
Evidently, Trump is enjoying an extended vacation at his golf club in New Jersey. Working on his handicap…
That’s just what a guy who is sweating bullets would do.
The only suit Trump fills out is a golf shirt.
If the GOP focused on bread and butter issues rather than all the Trump nonsense, they would make real gains at the midterms.
The local TDS addled troll accuses everyone else of being Trump obsessed, less than a week after the president he voted for, Joe Biden, name checks Trump in a “non political” speech in an attempt to make the mid terms a referendum on Trump, and less than a month after Biden’s FBI raids Trump’s home, and after the Democrat party spends weeks on hearing about Donald J Trump’s actions 18 months earlier.
It’s not a lack of self-awareness on the part of the troll, it’s a matter of idiocy.
Things didn’t seem to go to well in court today for Team FBI.
Maybe the JD could get Mueller out of retirement? He’s tanned, rested, and ready! Also a Republican! Also a war hero!
I think the observation that the court bent over backwards for Trump on every issue is a fair assessment.
You mean a “fair, unbiased, assessment,” Emery?
Your . . . what could be the word . . . pitiabiltiy? is off the scale, emery. If Judge Cannon had decided against Trump and in favor of Biden’s JD, you would have crowed about how even a Trump appointed judge had ruled against Trump’s ridiculous motion.
Jesus, you are a f*cking joke.
