Considering GITMO

While this book smells of the kind hastily and fluffily written in the wake of any former administration, there is something uncanny about the following posited allegation.

“Don’t we have an island we own?” the president reportedly asked, eager to keep the U.S.’s numbers low, continuing: “What about Guantanamo?”

The excerpt says aides were stunned, but Trump still brought up the idea a second time before it was quashed by staff members citing the poor optics of housing Americans near the prison.

The book—which is based on interviews with roughly 180 people, including senior White House staffers and government health leaders—is set to be published June 29.

Given all that’s happened and that hasn’t happened, it is plausible that the man who refused to send America’s enemies to GITMO would consider sending Americans there instead. Y’all remember to ask him about this when “resumes office” April 15th, July 4th, August 30th, never.

CPAC Your Bags

It’s a wee bit late for civic nationalist boomer conservatism. That ship sailed (and sank).

Through no fault of my own, I caught a little of Trump’s speech to CPAC this evening. I’m tempted to say the whole conference was pathetic, but it’s more irrelevant. If it was anyone but Trump., I’d say his speech was disgraceful. But the man did perhaps as much as anyone could do. It was probably too late, even for him. He did buy us four years and he laid bare all of the terminal problems. It’s too bad he doesn’t seem to see them now.

I did not like his chastising those whom he said failed to take action after the election theft. That was his job and he failed. The time for any speech was long ago. Up until about noon on January 20th, we needed strong action. And we did not get it. So, the rest – the bragging, boasting, low African-American this and that, muh economy, Judeo-Christ, military, Lee Greenwood, etc – was a pure wasted effort. CPAC is a waste as is conservatism. Total failure.

The hard times are here. If there’s a practical way forward that does not involve all-out war, then it’s most likely via the states. If strong governors can be found who will do what is necessary to either break Washington’s power or break from it, then that will be well. It’s wait-and-see, so we wait and we will see.

Thanks, Donald, but your time is passed. Who’s up for some hard-right Christian nationalism?

That’s it, the advice of the day. I know many have come here, much like during election week, for answers. I have few. In a way, yes, it’s almost a choice between emergency military action (which looks increasingly unlikely – though we can’t be too sure) and descent into a third-world police state and years of civil war. Downright cheery options! Whatever is going to happen on the 20th and afterward is going to happen. If nothing else, Trump managed to expose the rot on all levels and the treason by all parties. What will the people do with that knowledge? I’m not sure. At least we have it and we always have a way forward. Keep the faith and never give up!

*I am still working on a new and revised TPC short. You’ll know it when you read it.

That was admittedly a confusing and slightly disappointing speech from the Lone Star state. “Trust the plan” v that was a goodbye concession. Time will tell. I might make a short video of my thoughts. Of course, I’ll have to come up with the thoughts. And, on that note, I have TWO(!) TPC columns drafted out, neither one of which I like nor that I think would benefit the readership. Hmmm.

Emergency Declared in DC

Is Trump expecting a Storm?

Today, President Donald J. Trump declared that an emergency exists in the District of Columbia and ordered Federal assistance to supplement the District’s response efforts due to the emergency conditions resulting from the 59th Presidential Inauguration from January 11 to January 24, 2021.

The President’s action authorizes the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), to coordinate all disaster relief efforts which have the purpose of alleviating the hardship and suffering caused by the emergency on the local population, and to provide appropriate assistance for required emergency measures, authorized under Title V of the Stafford Act, to save lives and to protect property and public health and safety, and to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe in the District of Columbia.

What catastrophe could that possibly be? Snow on the radar?

Inciting a Peaceful Protest

In the wake of the police shooting and murder of Ashli Babbit (say her name!), an unarmed White Woman, during a peaceful protest for justice by American Patriots at the Nation’s Captial yesterday, a host of pathetic, evil slimeballs have become utterly unhinged. Among these treasonous rodents is a fool who contemplates filing baseless and false charges against the one man who can simply wave his pen and make the charges disappear.

The top federal prosecutor in Washington, D.C., on Thursday pointedly did not rule out charging President Donald Trump in connection with inciting a riot where his supporters invaded the U.S. Capitol complex a day earlier.

Acting U.S. Attorney Michael Sherwin said the Department of Justice will consider lodging criminal charges against anyone who played a role in the riot, which for hours delayed the certification by Congress of Joe Biden’s election as the next president.

Donald Trump should use his pen and his power and preemptively pardon anyone associated with the peaceful protests, including himself and excluding only those who committed the murder of Ashli Babbit and those rats whom the killers protected. In fact, as a parting gift to America (not that he’s necessarily going anywhere), he should blanket pardon all Americans for all federal crimes they have ever committed, ever possibly committed, or have ever been charged with committing. Our Democracy or something is at stake! Then, using the same pen he should declare enemy combatants all those deep state monsters who have oppressed the people and destroyed our nation. He should do it in the name of Ashli Babbit! Say her name! SAY IT!

The online content publisher has blocked the President until…

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Thursday said the company would block President Donald Trump from posting to his Facebook and Instagram accounts for an indefinite amount of time and at least until President-elect Joe Biden assumes the Oval Office.

Who needs the Zuck, right, Mr. President? This is a fine time, so I hereby extend an invitation to Mr. Trump to join the free People at Freedom Prepper Community! The rest of you, minus the trolls, gammas, and idiots, are welcome too.

The fake news is now trying, as predicted, to alter their narrative from “Biden won, case closed,” to “Trump stole the election.” The Washington Post and the AP are now dangerously close to aiding and abetting a coup with their repeated conspiracy theories and utterly baseless claims, lacking any supporting evidence whatsoever (tables, turning…), that Donald Trump, Fidel Castro, or anyone else attempted to rig the November election by merely adhering to the law and preventing the deep state from stealing it. The facts: the Electoral College has certified the election, with a seven-state duality catch sufficient to re-elect the President on January 6th. May the Storm break loose on the 7th.
