The unravelling of the USA gets its summer steroid booster shot this Thursday when the political twerk-fest known as the January 6th Select Committee commences prime-time televising of its inquiry into the so-called “insurrection” the day that Congress met to tally the 2020 electoral college vote when hundreds of protesters entered the US Capitol illegally, egged on and enabled by a squad of FBI plants larded through the crowd, and by shadowy figures inside the building who unlocked the doors for them.
The objectives of this extravaganza are A) to soften up the remaining “purple” voters before the midterm election, B) to paint former president Donald Trump as an instigator of the uproar and an enemy-of-the-people so he won’t be able to run for office again, and C) to punish former White House employees and Trump partisans with onerous legal fees so as to knock them off the political game board.
The Party of Chaos certainly doesn’t need to reinforce the mass formation psychosis of its base who maintain that the 2020 election was the fairest-and-squarest in US history. The committee members will chant the talismanic phrase “The Big Lie” ad nauseam to ward off reasonable suspicions that they are the ones doing the lying. Since a kind of maniacal stupidity attends all the party’s doings these days, it could easily backfire on them. Even two years later probes are still pending in several swing states, and only a few weeks ago, the documentary 2000 Mules released time-stamped videocam footage of blatant wholesale drop-box ballot-stuffing around the country. ...
The context, of course, as I aver above, is a country that is imploding six ways to Sunday — to paraphrase Chuck Schumer, the Party of Chaos’s Senate leader. At least half the public is already onto the extravagant damage inflicted upon our national life by the beneficiaries of the 2020 election. Thanks to “Joe Biden,” the dollar is hemorrhaging value, we instigated a war in Ukraine that will lead to global famine and mass refugee events, oil and natgas are unaffordable thanks to our destabilizing of global distribution networks, spare parts are unavailable for every imaginable machine in the land, the business model for farming is broken, real estate is groaning under rising mortgage interest rates, the CDC is still pushing Covid vaccines despite proof that they are ineffective and harmful, cities are overwhelmed with criminal violence and psychotic homeless drug fiends, and, as a final indignity — actually, an advertisement to the world of our depraved weakness — the US military is hosting drag queen shows at our European air bases.
The White House Keeps Stoking Covid Fears
“We have a hundred years worth of oil,” he said. “Let them open up the spigots and the price of crude oil will come back down to 55, 60, maybe 65 — half!”
The billionaire supermarket chain owner highlighted the irrationality of the current administration’s policies on the matter.
“Nobody can understand — all the people I talked to — nobody can understand why this obsession with North America,” he said. “[Biden] wants to fly to Saudi Arabia and beg the Saudi Arabians to give us another half a million barrels at $120 a barrel.”
“Does that make any sense at all?” he added. “It makes no sense!”

The Hill: Text Messages Show Hunter Biden Gave Joe ‘Half’ His Salary

If Biden and Trump were to hold a joint press conference, it might look something like this.
Biden makes series of false claims as he addresses labor unions - and gets angry as he slams 'lies about his reckless spending'
In a Tuesday speech before the AFL-CIO convention in Philadelphia, the president's tried to reset the terms of the debate on the economy
Biden's own approval ratings have slid while consumer prices - and the cost of gasoline - have surged
But Biden asserted: 'Since I took office, with your help, families are carrying less debt nationwide. They have more savings nationwide'
But despite the president's pronouncements, data from the Federal Reserve shows that household debt has increased over $1.5trillion since he took office
Inflation is also at a more than 40-year high - which has caused voters to sour on the economy despite a mixed recovery after 2020's pandemic downturn
Chevron CEO Mike Wirth has warned that there may never be another oil refinery built in America again due to Democrat President Joe Biden’s policies.
Wirth said in a recent interview that government policies are a key reason why the oil industry cannot expand in the United States.

Democrat President Joe Biden is begging oil companies for their help in lowering gas prices while threatening to use his “emergency” powers against them if they refuse to comply.
Biden sent desperate letters to the heads of seven oil companies: Marathon Petroleum Corp, Valero Energy Corp, ExxonMobil, Phillips 66, Chevron, BP, and Shell.
In the letters, Biden included a veiled threat to use his “emergency authorities” to force their hand in addressing the situation.

Another problem is that these noble endeavors often end up making life harder for the minorities they are meant to support. In March of this year, Vice President Kamala Harris unveiled a plan to force “home appraisers” to increase their valuations of black-owned properties.
Exhibiting a relationship with reality that is at best detached, Harris said this equity measure would improve “intergenerational wealth” among minorities. Would it also not mean that black people end up poorer because they would be paying more in property taxes on their higher-valued homes? Nobody seemed to care. Equity is about gestures not results.
As part of its multi-trillion-dollar Build Back Better infrastructure agenda, the Biden administration has also suggested destroying interstate highways, not because the roads are bad infrastructure but because they were built by a racist society in the 1960s.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Joe Biden Brags About Getting Ukrainian Prosecutor Fired That Was Investigating His Son
In 2016 Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, in his investigation of corruption involving Burisma Holdings, a natural gas company, identified Hunter Biden as the recipient of over $3,000,000 from the company.
Not wanting this corruption exposed, Joe Biden swung into action, using us loan guarantees as hostages while demanding Skokin be fired.
Amazingly, Joe Biden brags about his actions in this matter.
In 2022 Biden says this: "I think the greatest sin anyone can commit is the abuse of power." the irony of the sentence is of charts!

JOE CALLED HUNTER AFTER A NYT ARTICLE ON HIS CHINESE BUSINESS DEALINGS.
