Marc's Musings

Remember when everyone was concerned about the deforestation of the Amazon and the impact it would have on oxygen levels?

What happened to that issue?

Do you suppose the silence is related to the fact that the Amazon is now being raided for balsa to construct wind turbine blades?

The talking heads still cannot accept that what happened was a referendum against globalist establishment orthodoxy and not a case of 72 million douche-tards being bamboozled by misinformation on social media.

It's funny that all of those people who spent three months telling us all of the reasons Harris was going to win are now experts on why she did not.

Looks like the Russians pulled off another upset!

Who knew they were so good at democracy?

I woke up this morning and thought "Oh, good. Harris is not president." followed by "Oh, God! Trump is president!"

The Colorado Supreme Court is currently hearing arguments that would have elephants regarded as legal persons under the law.

Just because they are elephants, do they have to vote Republican?

Goebbels and Orwell could not even imagine the propaganda campaigns of the U.S. Military.

But I was suppose it was an inevitability since Reagan effectively made the DoD a branch of the CIA in 1981.

"Special Operations Forces (SOF) are interested in technologies that can generate convincing online personas for use on social media platforms, social networking sites, and other online content. The solution should include facial & background imagery, facial & background video, and audio layers."

One day after the commander of US Naval Forces Central Command said that the U.S. cannot stop Houthi raids by force, Joe Biden - or someone using his robopen - dropped the ban on selling offensive weapons to Saudi Arabia.

If can't beat 'em, may as well turn a profit!

Vice Admiral George Wikoff ( I wonder what his vices are?), the commander of US Naval Forces Central Command had admitted that the U.S. Navy cannot stop the Houthi attacks on ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.

So, you are telling me that a military whose budget is more than the next eleven countries combined (including Russia, China, and all of Europe) cannot defeat a bunch of illiterate vandals using their reason for being – the use of force?

… and we think we're going to threaten China

Joe Biden said he was withdrawing from the presidential race to 'save democracy'.

I didn't realize Joe was such a big threat.

Thanks, Joe!

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king persecuted as a heretic and run out of town.

Oh, look - another elitist rich white dude headed to Washington.

So 'drain the swamp' means "old rich white dudes out, young rich white dudes in."

I'm glad this is just another coincidence, otherwise I might think someone is sabotaging the food supply (not just here, but internationally also)

Another reason not to lock your devices with biometrics.

Of course, this ruling comes from the 9th Circuit, which would probably rule that constitutional rights are unconstitutional, if it came to it.

Several states are trying to pre-emptively stop UBI (Universal Basic Income), claiming that it is a vote-buying strategy.

As usual, the politicians have missed the point entirely. UBI isn't about buying votes (although that may be a short-term bonus).

It's about buying control. How long will it be before that free money is tied to your social and purchasing behaviors?

Since the 1970's, the federal government has used federal dollars to influence state-level programs (speed limits, education requirements, etc.)

UBI is an extension of fiscal extortion from the macro level to the micro level. The government will now be able to control individual behavior to an extent not dreamed of by history's tyrants.

The CEO of NPR said today, "In fact, our reverence for the truth might be a distraction that's getting in the way of finding common ground and getting things done."

Coming from someone who is both a WEF Young Leader and a term member of the CFR, I would expect nothing less.

This is what is meant by the term "globalist" – someone who has signed on and been indoctrinated to return the people to peasant status (such cretins having been so uppity since the Magna Carta).

The president’s cabinet cannot remove a president who is subjectively incapacitated – only the Congress can do that.

The cabinet can remove a president who is objectively incapacitated (e.g. coma).
