A Corrupt, Evil Regime Intent on Imprisoning Trump


Gunrunner, never-charged criminal, political hack, and perpetually aggrieved former attorney general Eric Holder is back, bloviating about President Trump being imminently arrested. Given that we live in post-Republic times and that the Department of (in)Justice has exhibited no shame or remorse in its years-long campaign of political persecution and partisan double-standards, I'll take Obama's contemptible "wingman" at his word just this once. So Democrats, Establishment Republicans, and the Deep State Leviathan plan on humiliating President Trump by frog-marching him before the world and tossing him in the clink.

So what? They've been telegraphing this play for months, if not years. We get it. The U.S. government is irredeemably corrupt, we've officially entered banana republic territory, and all the worst tyrants in D.C. plan on rounding up and punishing anyone brave enough to fight back or dissent.

News flash, Deep State: You kind of got your point across when Hillary Clinton's political henchmen and Barack Obama's FBI (political henchmen with badges?) worked with the Intelligence Community to frame candidate Trump as a Russian spy six years ago and none of the perpetrators ended up in prison. You made things quite clear when you gave tens of millions of dollars to Andrew Weissmann to run the Mueller Inquisition, so that he and his Democrat friends could pave over the lawless bureaucracy's Russia Hoax tracks; harass the Trump administration in pursuit of nonexistent crimes; and immunize Hillary, the FBI, and their political agents from prosecution. When you started locking up anybody remotely connected to the president for excrement-laden process crimes that were used as part of a stick-or-carrot approach to suborn false testimony against Trump, most of us understood that America had descended into a Lavrentiy Beria Soviet police State once and for all.

For the slow learners out there, these people made things very easy to understand when they decided to use members of the military (who in the old days would have just been called "double agents" or "saboteurs" but are now venerated as "whistleblowers") to impeach President Trump for a quid-pro-quo hoax in order to damage his re-election campaign and cover up Joe Biden's actual quid-pro-quo scheming in Ukraine, China, and elsewhere. We watched state attorneys general, secretaries of state, and both federal and state courts look the other way while mail-in ballot dumps and suspicious "pauses" in vote-counting (in explicit violation of state statutory laws) were used to flip battleground states days after the 2020 election and hand Biden an inexplicable "victory" over a sitting president who had won nearly every bellwether county across the country by double-digits, expanded his 2016 vote totals by over ten million, and received more votes than any incumbent in history — all feats that had meant certain victory in every past election. We watched as social media networks censored factual information about Hunter Biden's "laptop from hell" — containing evidence of financial crimes and deviant behaviors proving how vulnerable the Biden family remains to blackmail from adversarial nation states and other unscrupulous third parties — at the behest of a politically partisan FBI using the false public statements of former members of the Intelligence Community to justify government propaganda, speech suppression, and outright lies.

If there were anyone left in America who still didn't grasp that these people mean to destroy Donald Trump; his supporters; and anybody who dares to whisper, "Make America Great Again," they've gone out of their way to target Americans who question the legitimacy of the 2020 election farce with threats of criminal charges, job firings, professional sanctions, social "cancelation," forced psychiatric care (straight out of Stalin's Soviet playbook), and censorship. They've taken the unprecedented step of rewriting history by framing a million-American protest against election fraud on January 6 as a "domestic terrorist attack" and hostile "insurrection." They've used ethically challenged and politically partisan undercover agents, prosecutors, judges, and juries to turn simple acts of trespass, unlawful assembly, or criminal mischief (at most) into outrageously ludicrous charges of...

Sinking ship: U.S. manufacturing orders from China collapse


Manufacturing orders from China down 40% in unrelenting demand collapse

Shipping companies are already reacting with “blank” (canceled) sailings and reallocating cargo shipments (“vessel utilization”) to make sure they have full boats before they pull out of port. All this is raising hell with the logistic delivery schedules people waiting on the other side of the pond depend on.
…Carriers have been executing on an active capacity management strategy by announcing more blank sailings and suspending services to balance supply with demand. “The unrelenting decline in container freight rates from Asia, caused by a collapse in demand, is compelling ocean carriers to blank more sailings than ever before as vessel utilization hits new lows,” said Joe Monaghan, CEO of Worldwide Logistics Group.

U.S. manufacturing orders in China are down 40 percent, according to the latest CNBC Supply Chain Heat Map data. As a result of the decrease in orders, Worldwide Logistics tells CNBC it is expecting Chinese factories to shut down two weeks earlier than usual for the Chinese Lunar New Year — Chinese New Year’s Eve falls on Jan. 21 next year. The seven days after the holiday are considered a national holiday.
The shipping industry is feeling the bite as it spooled up with new ships coming online to address the pandemic shipping boom, just as that very business now falls precipitously away.
…″It seems to be a very bad time for the shipping industry. We have the combination of declining demands and overcapacity as new tonnage enters the market,” it wrote.
But what the collapse in demand signals for the larger picture is more the worrying aspect.
…Blank (canceled) sailings data shows the cut in vessel capacity on the transpacific route (China to the U.S.) continues at a significant pace. The 2M Alliance of Maersk and MSC has suspended almost half of its U.S. West Coast services for December. The Ocean Alliance (CMA CGM, Cosco Shipping, OOCL and Evergreen) and THE Alliance (Ocean Network Express, Hapag-Lloyd, HMM and Yang Ming Line) have cut overall vessel capacity by 40-50% up to Chinese New Year.

As a result, space for shippers is considered tight for cargo bound for the Pacific Southwest route and service reliability has declined, with carriers including MSC and Hapag-Lloyd rolling (not accepting) cargo on sailings in an effort to make up time. According to logistics managers, this is creating two weeks of delay. MSC said in its latest notice to clients, “ETAs are indicative and subject to change without prior notice.”
Supposedly some of it can be attributed to Chinese COVID restrictions – orders aren’t being placed because of the uncertainty – but the truth of the collapse in orders is that the U,S. economy is on very fragile ground at the moment, and that has greater implications for the world’s economy at large. As much as they hate us, as the old kids’ song says, we are the head bone they are all connected to. Steve Van Metre of Markets Insider Pro points out:
“…out of the U.S., demands for foreign-produced goods, particularly out of China, are dropping so much that it’s impacting the shipping industry, it’s impacting jobs in China. It’s having a massive impact. And that’s telling us what’s going on in the global economy right now – that demand is falling on its face.”

While U.S. firms like Apple are finally in the process of shifting some or all of their manufacturing out of China, none of that alleviates the present woes. Business friendly alternative countries such as Vietnam have been a favorite of manufacturers in...

Rutgers professor DROPPED for racist AF rant about ‘whiteness ending’ (watch)


We’ve seen a lot of ‘professors’ over the years saying some horrifically and monumentally stupid crap about almost every topic, but this from Rutger’s Professor Crunk (yes, that’s her name) about white people being the villain, whiteness having an end date, and her quite proudly claiming ‘we’ve gotta take these muthaf**kers out,’ takes the racist cake.

Can you imagine if a white professor said this about ANY race?

Watch:


And she thinks whiteness is the problem … alrighty then.

We know, we’re not supposed to believe that anyone can be racist against white people but damn, this is freakin’ racist.


Monumentally ignorant … identity treated as a substitute for a scholarship.

Ouch.

True story.


Oh, absolutely. And there would be riots, Targets looted, statues destroyed, and a bunch of white liberals saying WHITE PEOPLE DESERVE THIS or whatever. See the summer of 2020…
