The State of Corruption Address - Domestic and Global Version

by Scott Creighton

1. Just let congress cheat and commit crimes for the sake of the children.


 'at least let them cheat in the rigged system cus they can't live off their $200k a year, free healthcare for themselves and family for life and all the kickback perks they get. Let em cheat for goodness sake! WONT SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?!?!'

Mike Johnson is making a plea to allow congress critters to keep their practice of being allowed to do insider trading based on information they receive during the course of their congressional duties. Not only is that illegal or used to be, but the implication obviously is... they will make decisions and write bills that can potentially allow them to profit off of them being passed. This is blatant corruption and the Speaker of the House just comes right out and asks the people to stand for it... so these millionaire congress critters, who make over 200k a year PLUS benefits, can steal even more money.

 

2. Trump doesn't care about Americans, just giving Glorious Israel what they want.


 

Donald Trump has doubled down on his statement that he doesn't care how hard things are for Americans right now as long as Iran can't make a nuclear weapon. Meanwhile he has been told over and over again that Iran doesn't want a nuclear weapon by his own intelligence agencies and the obvious fact is... the ONLY country killing women and children right now so they can steal more land and become a stronger nation... is ISRAEL and they already have nuclear weapons.

Here's Ben Gvir saying the quiet part out loud:


 "We have plans to encourage the expulsion of the Palestinian population from Gaza, to promote expulsion from the West Bank and to colonize Lebanon. We are in a period of biblical redemption, so we must not stop and' Ben Gvir

So if Trump knows Iran doesn't want a nuclear weapon... what is he actually saying? He's saying he doesn't give a shit how much American families suffer... just so long as he helps the Jewish Supremacist Zionist steal more land from other nations in the Middle East. That's what he is saying and he is now doubling down on it.

3. Behold what neoliberal IMF 'loans' do to the people everywhere

This is what the IMF does everywhere it goes with its neoliberal economic ideology and crippling austerity measures and that is why it is always supported by thug dictators like Delcy Rodriguez. 

In Bolivia the new leader, backed by the Trump administration, is imposing crippling austerity measures on their own people, ruining lives and harming the working people, in order to show the masters of the universe at the International Monetary Fund how serious they are about getting those wonderful 'loans' that will make the lives of the people better. lol


 But the people clearly don't want the loans or the austerity measures or the global oligarchs picking the corpse of Bolivia clean so they can make billions of dollars. So they are organizing a general strike across the country.

 Miners, teachers, nurses, union members and indigenous people across the country are standing together demanding this regime step down and have been for weeks while NOTHING is said about it over here in the land of the Big PX.


 

4. The biggest threat to the fascists of the Trump administration is the enemy within: Americans opposed to fascism

Yeah you read that right. Trump looks to profit personally at every turn, congress expects to be able to do the same... Big Business is ripping us off left, right and straight down the center... and the biggest fear they have is a growing percentage of the American people who have come to understand that MAGA is just code for FASCISM... and they want no part of it.

So in Trump's new counterterrrorism plan, going after the terrorists of old seems like it's off the table and the only thing that matters is going after... well, to put a point on it... us.

'For a year, White House counterterrorism czar Sebastian Gorka promoted the national strategy he was drafting, saying he was pouring his “life’s work” into a “massive” blueprint that would overhaul the U.S. approach to combating terrorist threats.

The finished product, released May 6 after months of delays, is a 16-page, typo-sprinkled document that ranks threats based on politics rather than intelligence assessments, according to several current and former counterterrorism officials and threat analysts.

Islamist militant groups, the perennial top concern, now come second to Latin American drug cartels. The violent far right, which the FBI has repeatedly called the leading domestic threat, doesn’t merit a mention. Meanwhile, militant leftists, a small subset of extremist violence in the United States, are portrayed as a threat on par with global terrorist networks such as al-Qaida.

“A new type of domestic terrorism has emerged,” the document says, “driven by violent extremists who have adopted ideologies antithetical to freedom and the American way of life.” ...

The strategy’s top threat categories align with the president’s pet issues, including the villainizing of Democrats and leftist dissent...

Rights watchdogs say the strategy hints at ways Trump administration officials will attempt to build terrorism cases against U.S. leftist and Muslim activists through nebulous or nonexistent ties to transnational militant movements. ' ProPublica

Seb Gorka is a clown who I have been laughing at publicly for well over a decade. This document as it stands now is full of grammatical and spelling errors which just goes to show how f-in stupid it is.

It seems to be a cobbled together collection of snippets taken from various NGO boilerplate talking about and proposal pitches and is seriously lacking in any kind of plan or thought out evaluation of where threats come from, how they are manifesting or financed and what to do about them.

Like Gorka, this thing is just drivel but it does go to show just what these corrupt fascists care about and that is anyone who stands opposed to corrupt fascists.

We and the Venezuelans need to take a lesson from the people of Bolivia. I've said it before I will say it again... you can't vote your way out no matter how many times you are told that by your favorite leftie talking head. November is a long way a way and so much shit can and will be done by then might not be anything left to salvage by voting harder.

We need a general strike to get rid of ALL OF THEM. Mike Johnson is just making that perfectly clear at this point. They need to go. Period. A general strike shutting the whole thing down wont take a week to get them gone and from the looks of it, they got something wicked planned for us anyway so we might as well go with the Sampson option while we still can.

Have a nice Saturday folks.
