Power Grab

Defending Democracy(tm)

President Biden is set to announce major Supreme Court reforms on Monday, likely including term limits and an enforceable ethics code. He’s also expected to advocate for a constitutional amendment to limit presidential immunity.

Let’s parse this. Term limits are unconstitutional. Read Art. III, Sec. 1:

The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.

Term limits would require a Constitutional Amendment, not an executive order. Biden can’t legally do shit about term limits.

An ethics code: Biden can’t do that by executive order, either. At the least, it would require an act of Congress, and even then, the court is likely to rule that such an act would be unconstitutional.

Which brings us to the final point- limiting officeholder immunity through Constitutional amendment.

Passing an Amendment is extremely difficult, and it’s meant to be. There is no way that they are going to get the two thirds vote of both houses of Congress, nor are they likely to get the approval of 38 state legislatures. I just don’t see this happening without the left finally admitting that they use COTUS as toilet paper.

They are simply pissed because the court is not ruling in their favor. They will stop at nothing to destroy Trump, and once they do, you are next.

This is Why the US Will Fall

I want you to look at this story. The left entered the House gallery and “protested” in an attempt to derail Congress. Not one of them was charged with interfering with the government before being locked up for years while awaiting trial.

The “protesters” grabbed a cop and dragged him across the ground. None of them were arrested.

The left is going to overthrow the government, and the right will do nothing but sit around arguing about shit that is completely irrelevant. It’s the biggest problem that I have with libertarians, and it keeps rearing its head. The left is using violence to alter an election, again. Meanwhile, the right is busy arguing about semantics.

This is why the left will win.

Astroturf

My social media feeds flipped to being overwhelmingly about THROATUS over the past few days. It’s been overwhelming to the point where social media is unreadable at this point. I am guessing that Kamala is using all of those campaign funding dollars to hire a few people to run thousands of social media accounts to shill for her. It wouldn’t be hard to do.

One person can easily send 30 messages/posts/tweets per hour, all on different accounts. That means a total of 240 messages in an 8 hour workday. If you were to hire 150 people at $15 an hour, if would cost you about half a million bucks per month. During that same month, more than a million messages would be posted in support of you from a million different accounts.

It would look like overwhelming support, and that is assuming you don’t use bots to get even more coverage.

Here it Comes

I continue with my prediction that the left won’t let Trump take office again. With that in mind, here is what THROATUS is saying she wants to do:

Make sure that you have enough guns for you, your friends, family, and a hidden cache as a backup so they don’t get all of them. Make sure you have lots of ammo. It’s coming. I’ve been warning you for four years now- you DID heed my warnings, didn’t you?

You Need a Program to Identify the Acts of the Play

So here it is, to get you caught up:

  1. They tried to smear him in 2016 by claiming Russian collusion. The evidence, as it turns out, was fake.
  2. they tried impeaching him
  3. they tried impeaching him again
  4. they tried suing him into the poorhouse
  5. they filed tons of criminal charges against him, finally getting a conviction on some rather dubious legal grounds. When SCOTUS issued the ruling on Presidential immunity, the court delayed sentencing.
  6. All of the other cases were dead in the water. The left went apoplectic.

Then there was an assassination attempt on Trump’s life. In order for this event to have happened, at least one of two things must be true:

  • The Secret Service is entirely incompetent.
  • The Secret Service was complicit in the attempt.

There are no other possibilities. Where I am leaning is complicity.

In either event, the attempt failed. Then the poll numbers came out, and Trump’s numbers looked even better. It was at this point that Biden reversed course and decided to drop out of the race, citing health concerns. So now there are only two possibilities:

  1. Biden is too addled and mentally incompetent to run for office, which makes him too addled to hold the office of President, and he needs to go under the 25th Amendment. Now.
  2. Or, he resigned because his numbers looked so bad that it was unlikely that he would beat Trump in the election. In this case, the left is guilty of election tampering. The Democrat party can no longer claim to “support democracy(tm)”

No matter which of the above is true, welcome to banana republic status.

Getting Worse

Yes, the first information from a major event is usually wrong. It’s called the ‘fog of war’ and it’s a well known phenomenon. The problem is that the news coming out from Trump’s attempted assassination keeps making the entire even glow brighter as time goes on.

The latest is that the police spotted the shooter on that roof at 5:45, called it in and took a picture of him. Trump didn’t take the stage until 6:05. The shots were fired at 6:11.

So when the suspicious person was called in, why did Trump’s detail still allow him to take the stage? Why didn’t anyone go over there and check it out? Was this incompetence? Complacency? Or something more sinister?

We will never know the truth.

So Far

Here is what we know about the Trump assassination attempt so far:

  1. a random 20 year old acting completely alone walked to within 150 yards of a presidential campaign rally with a rifle
  2. climbed onto a rooftop, fully within the view of two Secret Service sniper teams
  3. even though multiple people told the authorities that there was a man on the roof top with a rifle, only one of the even investigated, and he ran away without telling anyone else once the 20 year old pointed a gun at him
  4. set up his shot and fired without anyone intervening
  5. with no help from anyone.
  6. He once tried to join his school’s rifle club, but his aim was so bad he hit the side wall instead of the end wall where the target was, so didn’t make the team
  7. He was also so politically radical as to attempt an assassination, but not radical enough to have ever posted any political writings or commentary on any social media site, ever
  8. He also wrote no manifesto and left behind no indication about why he did it
  9. The password and encryption on his cell phone is so airtight that the entire Federal government can’t crack it
  10. He committed only two political acts before attempting to kill the Republican candidate, and that was to register as a Republican and donate $15 to Act Blue.

You must believe this and ask no questions about it, or else you are a conspiracy theorist. One thing we know about assassination attempts is that there’s never any conspiring involved.

Things are going to deteriorate at a faster rate. It’s going to seem blindingly fast in retrospect.

Domestic Enemies

The FBI is claiming that the Trump shooting yesterday is domestic terrorism. I don’t like it. It’s becoming more obvious to me that it was a false flag. This wasn’t a psychotic nut bag gunning down a classroom full of kids, this was a directed, determined assassin taking a shot at the candidate who the left already tried to impeach, prosecute, and sue out of the race.

Are they about to play some sort of game where they declare Trump or Republicans to be terrorists?

What is the play here?
