No more days if Biden ascends.

[Thomas Collins]

If Biden cancels the pipeline, I hope people who opposed Trump because he is nasty realize they have substantially increased the odds that subsequent generations will not have the opportunities they have. It's not just Keystone. If Biden does this, it's an indication that his Administration is going full therapy state authoritarian/limit opportunities for advancement so the oligarchs will hold sway for several decades.

There will no doubt be several Biden Administration actions that will be adverse to those who claim they support economic growth but supported the Dems. This one would be a slap in the face to anyone who hopes to leave a better life for those who follow.

And that's the most polite way I can put this.

Ironic, isn't it, Narciso, that if Biden actually does this, he'll be pi$$ing off the Canadiens, to whom our progs so often look for enlightenment.

Chicago & Cook County. (Links to PBS in Chicago)

@chiiium

Like fuckin magic, several counties in Illinois have been moved into tier 2, which means it’s totally safe to go to a casino but if you want to go to a restaurant to eat, or have a drink in a bar, you’ll still be in violation of the mandate. No soup for you!

[henry]

State health officials on Monday lifted the toughest restrictions in place to stop the spread of the coronavirus in Chicago and suburban Cook, Lake, Kane, McHenry and DuPage counties after the Illinois Department of Public Health launched a new plan to add hospital staff and beds where the need is greatest.

However, indoor dining and drinking at bars and restaurants remains suspended throughout the Chicago area.

Fortunately for Lake County, WI bars are open.

It's a Festivus miracle!! America is re-opening.

Got a glimpse of Maxie Boot's column today calling for the cable companies to de-platform Fox News.

Scratch a liberal and find a fascist.

When in American history beyond the Mccarthy era have Americans ever been blacklisted because of their political beliefs?

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

I liked progs and Dems better when they were honest enough to call uppity nigras Uncle Tom's or turn the fire hoses on em.

None of these pointy headed, namby pamby, Foucoultian theories about multiracial whiteness.

[matt - deplore me if you must]

I should have included ordinary Americas as a qualifier. The Hollywood blacklist was one thing, but to de-humanize 50% of the population is something altogether unprecedented.

Joe Biden wants to heal the country by applying the principles of Josef Stalin and Mao Tse Tung.

[matt - deplore me if you must]

Oh, and what really pisses me off is that Congress is on a knife edge. 50/50 in the Senate and a 10-12 vote majority in the House and Biden won by a lousy 5 million votes out of 155 million, and that is highly questionable.

It would seem hard to be a fascist with those kind of numbers.

[Narciso]

Sanity as left the building heck the western hemisphere.

[Jim Eagle]

A pink horizon tonight. A light for photogs.

My baked Enchiladas will be perfect for tonight.

When you think about it, Biden as POTUS could be the death knell for the Dems if he screws like he says he will do. Coming out of a dead economy by disease, he will be the last person to save it.

Save your money and hunker down for 4 years.

Yes, let's have the states engage in a bidding war for vaccines.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

If the progs get their way America will be CA times 57; except there won't really be anyplace to escape to.
And the only people who like CA right now are billionaires and the retarded. Wait until you have a nationwide CA that can't buy power from neighboring states when the lights go out. Wait until you're paying twice as much for gas and electricity but all the good jobs to pay for them are overseas.
Where are small businesses and the middle/working classes going to move to if every state is CA?

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

So the Dems are telling us they are mobilizing the military against us?
This is how they unify and deescalate?
I may have to push up my full on revolt timeline substantially.

This is the last question facing America from its pre 2020 days;
Are the Dems capable of stealing enough elections going forward to prevent the GOP from taking back congress? If so then the Dems will have no incentive to moderate their behavior to retain seats and things will progress [as in all things progressive 'progress' means 'degenerate'] quickly.

Question for the legal eagles out there (and others): The chatter is that Congress will bring DC statehood to a vote. If DC is defined as a “district” in the constitution then can Congress simply vote to make DC a state? Or is it a referendum process?

Patriot or Pay-triot?

I think Chris Murphy’s shock troops will go for the money and not give a shit about us. They all know the alternative is to be cleansed.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

--If DC is defined as a “district” in the constitution then can Congress simply vote to make DC a state? --

LOL
Are you new here?
The way the constitution works is the Dems vote for something blatantly unconstitutional and then the courts say it is constitutional and voila, it is.
Or alternately, on the off chance a court blocks them, they just do it anyway and wait for someone to do something about it. Nobody does and voila, it is.

[Another Bob]

Zman. (Brought it over in order to protect you from a wrongthink link ;) )

“As the military begins the process of installing The Pretender as the figurative leader of the American Empire, it is a good time to take stock of what has happened over the last five years. From the perspective of political psychology, the world all of us inhabit today is a vastly different one from the world of 2015. This includes the dissident right, which has been transformed by the Trump experience. In the before times, politics was all shades of gray, while today it is in black and white.

An obvious example is Conservative Inc. The Obama years were tough for those rackets, as it became clear to many conservative people that these guys cared more about how the Left thought of them than in advancing their issues. Compounding it was the refusal to address the failures of the Bush years. Even so, they really thought they could keep peddling hyper-violent Progressivism to conservatives, as long as they decorated it with pictures of Reagan.

That racket smashed onto the rocks of the Trump experience. Traffic for the old school neocon sites collapsed. The Weekly Standard folded. These people revealed themselves to be a blend of old school confidence men and petulant, nasty liars who hate the people they claim to represent. They still have an audience of chumps unable to smarten up, but otherwise Conservative Inc. has no audience. They exist because the Left thinks they are useful for now.

Further to that point, Libertarian Inc., a subsidiary of Conservative Inc., has also been exposed as a long con. The stripping of our ancient liberties by global enterprise should have been a great cause for libertarians. After all, systematically stripping people of their ability to exist is pretty much what libertarians claim to oppose, but the major organs were silent. A combination of graft and perfidy kept them focused on echoing Progressive talking points about the evil Donald Trump.

This has revealed something else. The dissident right is not ready to be the Dissident Right, despite the growing numbers. This is a problem that dates to the 1980’s when Conservative Inc. started to purge dissenters from their ranks. Instead of working to build new structures outside of and opposed to official structures, dissidents kept trying to get back inside the official tent. The result has been a ragtag army living on the land outside the walls of the city. It remains so.

Probably the biggest change, one we see evolving in front of our eyes as the military is called in to install The Pretender, is that the parties are a fiction. Until very recent, most dissidents thought the way forward was to work through the two-party system and get “our guys” into office. Again, this dates to the 1980’s. Buchanan tried and failed to unseat the neocon Bush. Perot tried and failed with his third-party to cleanse the land of the neocons. Trump tried and failed to reform the Republican Party.

The reason all these efforts failed is the party system is a fiction. The core of each party holds the same opinions on the important issues. They are bankrolled by the same collection of billionaires and international interests. The parties have tentacles that reach into various camps, but the main body of the system serves the people who bankroll American politics. A politician with close ties to the CCP can maintain his seat because the Chinese are a major backer of both parties.

This is the big change for dissidents. Trump was the last opportunity to keep dissidents engaged in the fiction of democracy. His own perfidy and his treatment by the political class has disabused dissidents of their faith in the system. The people in the streets at the Epiphany Uprising were not there because they still believe in the Republican Party, Donald Trump, or the system itself. They were there, being cheered by tens of millions from home, because dissidents lost their faith in the system.

Further to that, it is finally dawning on dissidents that what motivates the Cloud People is not what motivates the Dirt People. For generations, the Right insisted that the Left is driven by the same logic as everyone else. This was always false, and part of the long con played on the public. This is, in part, why conservatives lost every battle in the culture war. The people on the other side of the barricades, celebrating their victory over us, are not us and they do not think like us.

This is probably the most important lesson of the last five years that is finally sinking into the thick skulls of the dissident right. The Cloud People are not motivated by greed or a lust for power. They have those things. They are motivated by a sense of identity that starts with a hatred of the Dirt People. Their sense of self begins with not being anything like the people over whom they rule. This is why they hated Trump. He was an intruder from the other side injected into their world.

While many are disappointed with the Trump years and Donald Trump the man, the last five years have been a clarifying experience. The anger, emotion, disappointment, frustration, even the violence, are the result of a fog lifting. Five years ago, most people were sure about politics. Now that the fog has lifted, people are looking around and seeing it was always a big lie. The people who perpetrated these lies are on the other side of those barricades, giving the rest of us the finger.”

DEKALB COUNTY, GA!:🚨🚨Documents appear to show one GA County ordered 25,000,000 voter application forms on Nov 11th, more than 2.5x the States population. Other counties shown ordering far less. Dekalb was delayed submitting their Senate runoff election results.

Dekalb County appears to have ordered 250,000k packs of 100 of these forms after the General Election but before the Senate runoff races. In other words 25,000,000 forms, price tag $10,000,000. I’m told prices are paid by the @GaSecofState’s office not the Counties.

Not naive just a realist. Trump could have nipped the Lin Wood insanity in the bud long before the Georgia runoff. Myself and several other posters made the point multiple times that Wood was either batshit crazy or he was acting on inside info. If the former is the truth and the latter was never the case, then the buck stops at Trump for not telling his supporters to ignore Wood. If JOM posters figured out Wood was batshit crazy, surely Trump and his inner circle knew it too.
