The 2024 US POTUS Election - and now the aftermath

[SilentFeathers]

This whole rally is lies upon lies about Trump, etc., He actually called Trump a convicted rapist, among other things. I honestly can't believe so many people have bought in to this BS.
It's like watching a bunch of mindless zombies watching and listening to a mumbling stumbling fool.

Biden ends the speech saying that he knows how to tell the truth and knows right from wrong......that sums up this video clip quite well......

This 20 minute video is well worth watching, trust me. The Young Turks (Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian) discuss last night's live press conference as soon as it concludes, and Ana goes into full DEFCON 1 meltdown, sometimes pretty much yelling at the camera (and even at her co-host!). The points she makes, however, are 100% valid.

Ignore what they say or claim about Trump (in my opinion! ), and appreciate all the rest. Despite their regular political affiliation (hardcore Democrat), these two are not completely stupid.

The Democrats claim that they must win at all cost in order to save Democracy while they themselves completely destroy Democracy, more importantly, as they themselves destroy the Constitutional Republic of the United States.

I never thought I'd ever see the day TYT's would say anything bad about their Gods....

It is interesting though watching them turn on each other in such a ridiculous and hypocritical way. They are just proving to the masses how fake and what hypocrites they are.

The evidence of two realities is really becoming obviously apparent.

It's a bit heart warming to see how some Democrats/Liberals in the U.S.A. are starting to see how much their party has been hi-jacked by war hawks and corporatist whoremongers.

One fact mentioned here that has really astounded me: the White House has not had a Cabinet Meeting since 2023!!!!! I had assumed that these meetings were held weekly, or at the very least monthly. In the UK, they are held once per week. This is especially interesting in light of the U.S. Constitution's 25th Amendment, Section 4. If the cabinet could see problems in Biden's cognitive abilities, they could remove him from office, giving power to the Vice President.

The Fed boss just gave testimony in the house that he has not been asked to a meeting with the President in over two years. I find that quite revealing too.

At the 16:40 mark Ana goes off on the following rant:


...I’m so sick of our government, abandoning the American people, in order to represent a foreign government instead. That is what the Biden Administration has done when it comes to Israel…it has become incredibly triggering to me. How little our government cares about us and how far they are willing to go for a foreign government—a specific foreign government of course—why is that Cenk? WHY IS THAT! Because all they care about is their donors! They’re worried about APAC—they’re worried about the donors! Every story that’s been coming out now about the maneuvering taking place by democratic leadership behind the scenes has to do with their concerns that their donors are unhappy. BUT DEMOCRATIC VOTERS HAVE BEEN EXPRESSING THEIR DISPLEASURE FOR MONTHS! FOR MONTHS! THEY DON’T CARE!... I'm supposed to sit on this set and provide cover for that party? THAT PARTY DISGUSTS ME RIGHT NOW!


Ahh...sincere question for Ana. You've been covering politics for a living for years and you're just coming to this realization now? That the party you belove so much is not beholden to voters, but to donors?

I typically have a difficult time stomaching any kind of commentary from these two--not necessarily because of their politics--but because of their brand of impassioned cluelessness undergirding the commentary. The above rant has a different vibe. I used think Ana and her ilk were but dishonest gatekeepers propagating a fictitious paradigm--not because they truly believed in it--but because they were disingenuous propagandists. I may have to re-think that a bit. She seems to be having a genuine epiphany here that the party she loves so much doesn't represent her innocent ideals at all. But if so, it's just a little shocking to learn how entrenched in trance she's been. She's really just now coming to understand this?

Now if she can just come to understand why her party doesn't care about their voters--something the 2020 election proved in spades--that for all intents and purposes the voters don't matter at the end of the day because the government she's been ranting about on a daily basis (specifically, the Republican wing of said government) is really one big UniParty that isn't an institution by and for the people, but an institution of organized crime families (not only beholden to a "foreign government"--or "specific foreign government as just seems keen to) by and for oligarchs and a global agenda antithetical not only to her so-called "party ideals", but also antithetical to the free-will of the people and to humanity itself. She's seems half-way to the realization that the so-called democratic process may just theater to keep the plebs at bay.

I just hope something like a Harris/Whitmer ticket won't put her back to sleep...

I've been thinking exactly the some thing. It was like she'd been hit over the head with a hammer, and was suddenly realizing there was something very badly wrong. Her strongly voiced concern about the US was 100% sincere. (And warranted!)

And this can happen to anyone. I don't think she's a 'bad' person at all... just a product of her environment, education (California university degrees), and influence from all the people around her in the Young Turks studio. I'm almost prepared to bet that within a year or so she might be holding a whole bunch of different personal views, and be hosting her own independent podcast.

Peter Navarro, Trump ex-aide jailed for contempt of Congress, will address RNC, AP sources say
BY JILL COLVIN
Updated 4:46 AM BST, July 13, 2024


NEW YORK (AP) — Former White House trade advisor Peter Navarro, who is currently in jail on contempt of Congress charges, is expected to speak at next week’s Republican National Convention just hours after his release.

That’s according to two people familiar with the event’s schedule who spoke on condition of anonymity to share details before they were formally announced.

Navarro is set to be released from a Miami prison on Wednesday, July 17, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons’ online database of current inmates. That would give him just enough time to board a plane and make it to Milwaukee before the convention wraps Thursday.

Something to ponder.

There were spears at the top of Biden's flags at the Big Boy press conference - they indicate court martial, not president.

Ana is just parroting the other anti-Biden lefties right now, I don't believe for a second that she has had some great awakening. Her and Cenk somewhat are constantly playing good cop bad cop so to speak.
In my opinion they just fell in to the anti-Biden branch of the commie lefties. If Ana and Cenk had deep morals and loved this country (and had any common sense) they'd run from the Democratic party.
I may be wrong of course about Ana but I'd bet money she falls right back in line 100% with the lefties once this Biden thing is resolved.

Tulsi Gabbard – The Ultimate Insurance Policy For Trump

BY TYLER DURDEN
SATURDAY, JUL 13, 2024 - 11:40 AM
Authored by Tom Luongo via Gold, Goats, 'n Guns blog,

Having now done literally hundreds of interviews/livestreams/podcast over the past seven years, I’ve learned a few things about media. The first is that this is a lot harder than it looks.

I’ve done it the very hard way, limited success through repetitive failure.

It’s who I am. I’m neither a book nor ear learner. Learning is a kinetic process for me.

For those who aren’t natural public speakers it’s even harder than that. They have to take lessons and ****. And practice. Practice. Practice. I got a small amount of training back when I ran as a Libertarian in 2002. How to dress, reactively listening (Still no clue how to do that), etc.

So, while I’m no expert public speaker, I have become pretty aware of a few things about it: Long form is better than short. Not all media is good media. You have to be willing to ‘get into character.’

Just Be Yourself, Kinda.

Crafting a version of yourself to fit the format is the key to being both a good host and a good guest, both of which I’m still working on. That version/character you craft has a lifespan.

This isn’t to say that the character is artifice necessarily. It isn’t. It is the essence of the lines by T.S. Eliot from The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock:

There will be time, there will be time
To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet;

It’s not artifice to be a gracious host or a respectful guest, in common parlance it’s called “manners.”

And mine, despite my best intentions, are just barely adequate on the best of days.

How well you prepare that face and greet the opportunities to meet new faces with humility, will ultimately determine how far you go. We all have that choice in front of us every day.

It’s why Prufrock is one of my favorite poems in the English language, it so thoroughly captures the embedded schizophrenia of post-modern society.

You can have your script, practice your character, and maintain the lie for a certain amount of time. But eventually, no matter what you say, there you are.

The bigger the deviation that character is from the real you, the more exhausting maintaining that character is, the shorter the lifespan.

And because anyone can fool another person if they only have to put on the corporatist/globalist feedbag for a 2-5 minute fawning media segment, short form media is itself nothing but a potential lie-generation engine.

It is the height of artifice.

Podcast Campaigning

Podcasting, on the other hand, is just conversation. And conversations have their own vibe.

You still, however, have to craft a version of yourself for any conversation, because manners. But ultimately the inverse time function of maintaining a facade rules.

I can hold it together for about an hour, after that fatigue sets in and the persona, however slight it may be, begins to slip.

So, pro tip, podcasters, if you want controlled, normie-friendly Luongo, keep it under an hour. If you want That Mr. Hyde guy, just keep the tape rolling an extra 20 to 30 minutes.

This is why podcasting has taken off the way it has. It’s why Joe Rogan found the magic by accident.



Eventually everyone lets their guard down. Everyone is laid bare for us to truly see. And since we are all desperately crying out for authenticity in a sea of smarm, we gravitate towards the format which gives us the highest probability of getting the truth and the people who bring that to the table consistently.

I keep going back to one of the first blogs I posted on this site, The Authenticity Gap, detailing why Hillary Clinton’s credibility gap was her Achilles’ heel against Donald Trump.

The Democrats have been lying to us about literally everything while the GOPe led by Yertle the Turtle ran cover for them to…

… gin up World War III before Trump takes office to avoid being thrown in jail. This is how sick these people are.

Because, all that matters in the end is their maintaining power, no matter who it hurts or what it costs.

I wrote those words in 2016, before Trump won. They are just as accurate today.

This is why we’ve only seen Joah Bii-DEN! in public here and there, in sound bites and short clips, creating the fiction that he was anything other than a mushroom sporifying in the White House, feeding him a steady diet of bull****-flavored ice cream.

That piece is still relevant today, just replace The Hildabeast with Joe Biden. Trump and Putin are still ‘literally Hitler.” And the Democrats are self-immolating on the altar of their own tenuous relationship with common decency.

Watching Gabbard Gab

Having watched/listened to hundreds of hours of Tulsi Gabbard over the years, I’ve noticed a few things.



First, she’s not a natural public speaker, nor is she really comfortable in front of the camera. So, she has worked very hard on crafting a public persona which is not easy for her to slip into but which is also authentically her.

Because she is uncomfortable, that face begins to slip after a while…. about an hour. I always get the sense that there is a ‘macho military’ version of Gabbard lurking just below the surface, that swears like a mafia don and prays like a priest. And every once in a while it leaks out.

But it will never do so in a six-minute segment on Fox News.

You’ve got to get past that fatigue barrier.

The reason I bring all of this up is because Gabbard was recently on the Keep Hammering Collective podcast with Cameron Hanes for nearly two hours. (I included at end of post)

She did that podcast after spending the day with him doing his triathalon he calls Lift, Run, Shoot which I suggest you watch the video of, especially if your name is Donald Trump.

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=3BDhzT1uudU

Why? You know why. I’ve already made my case for why I thought Gabbard is the ‘box-ticking’ favorite to be Trump’s running mate this fall.

I think, however, in retrospect, that was a little unfair to Tulsi Gabbard.

I, like the Davosians who tried to groom her into their perfect barista of globalism, made the mistake of not really getting past the character she plays, the boxes she ticks. There’s a fiery person underneath that calm face she wears in front of the camera. Her book, which I’ve read, makes this point ad infinitum.

And the rounds she’s making supporting the book are showing us a Tulsi Gabbard hinted at, but she hasn’t really shown us before.

What’s, uh, the VP deal?

Dexter White’s recent post reminded us about why Joe Biden was selected to be Barack Obama’s VP, “the life insurance policy for the first black president…”

Obama thought “…I sure don’t want to get shot, who could I pick for VP that would make even an assassin think twice? Oh, I know, Joe Biden. No one wants that dumbass in charge!”

Over the years, we’ve gotten so caught up in the political game that is choosing a Vice-President we forgot what the actual job description is… to be the person to step into the role should the President not be there, physically, mentally, or otherwise.

I say this to remind the ghost of Al Haig that we still don’t want him in charge.

It is precisely because Kamala Harris was picked to be Biden’s veep for every other reason than the job description that the Democrats and Davos are in the bind they are in as I write this.

It was never about Harris’ competence, capability, or commitment that landed her in the Naval Observatory. It was the boxes she ticked, the perception of her moral fluidity, and her solidification of the black female vote at a time when black men were drifting into Der Trumpenfuhrer’s orbit that made her the center of their Venn Diagram.

Notice how she was never a person to them… just a series of attributes.

For Trump, who has held back his choice for vice-president for months, the big question has been, if he wins the election will the blob/Deep State/Davos/etc. just kill him off before the inauguration?

It’s a real conundrum.

So, I say, turn about is fair play. Biden was Obama’s insurance policy, make Gabbard Trump’s. Because, if there is one person of all the people on the short list to be Trump’s VP that Davos et.al. do not want to see on the ticket it is Tulsi Gabbard.

Because she really is that person who walked away from power, has a strong moral center, and is authentically motivated by service. And that motivation, coupled with their previous shots against her, like they’ve done with Trump, should scare them maybe more than he does.

Remember, Trump’s ultimately a deal-maker. Is Gabbard? Open question.

This is why every trial balloon imaginable has gone up in the past three months for the usual suspects like Skeletor Scott, his separated at birth brotha Tim, Little Marco, Tom Cotton Pickin’ Neocon, etc… They are trying to move Trump to tick boxes rather than choose the whole person.

The only person other than Gabbard that gets their globalist goat more is Gen. Mike Flynn.

But, really, go watch the real Gabbard emerge in the 2nd half of the Cameron Hanes podcast. She knows who they are. She told them to “GFY,” but has too many manners to say it publicly.

Beneath that calm demeanor is someone deeply angry.

Even if she tries to hide the real fire in her belly while she’s auditioning for the role.

And, lastly, she understands the threats and dangers to civilization itself these people represent.

Because Gabbard is the real deal, folks.

I thought it before. I know it now.

You can’t fake what she has. And that’s an insurance policy whose payout is more than even the ghouls at Globalist Central can afford.

Something just happened to Trump in PA, they just dragged him off the stage and it looked like he had a bunch of blood on him. He's alive but appears injured.

Like many people, I'm sure, I've watched all the Trump rallies, and prayed to keep him safe.

Every rally I would pray, and every rally I'd hold my breath, hoping - not tonight, keep him safe!

...I walk out to the kitchen for a moment and when I come back Trump has been shot...
I know I have little influence, but after all those nights, watching and listening to the same old spiel, keeping him safe, and I'm not there at the most important time, pisses me off.

Thank God he is alright!

Tore has been running some algorithms and finding escalated dangers following the assassination attempt on Saturday.

She pleads with everyone to be careful not to become the one they frame for what they want to do next [civil war]. She says they are not looking for a lone assassin type, they are looking for higher profile people who are already public and on record for saying things that can be twisted and construed as calling for war. E.g. even someone like Ann Vandersteel could fit the bill, {or a devout literal Bible bashing Satan condemning 'Christian'}.

The only way they can get the Dems on the ballot in all states, if they switch the candidate, will be for "Biden" to die.


Tore Maras - Sun 14 Jul, 2024: A Tore Says Public Service Announcement
9 minutes - Posted Jul 14, 2024

SHOW NOTES
All modeling and other indications show a real possibility for more violence. Have no doubt, we are at war. A 40% affirmative hit on the algos is strong, this one is 68%. The Trump shooting opens doors for them. Another similar move on Biden during the DNC would solve many problems. It looks like operational planning is taking place. Please don't be the one they frame. Those on the left want civil war to try and taint our patriots. Desperation breeds panic. Let's preempt their plans. And always, pray hard for our country.

[wondering]

I agree with Tore Mara's suggesting that we pray hard. for me it is the perfect opportunity to use the power that we all have in abundance to visualize and intend that Love and Light and Truth permeate our world because good is always more powerful than evil.
