A defining characteristic of the Left—Liberalism, Progressivism, Wokeism, Establishment Elite Privilege, what have you—is the desire and repeated efforts to abolish the law of cause and effect.
This may or may not be OT, but the following link is the most erudite and open explanation for what is taking place not just here, but throughout the so-called Democratic nations of the West. For those who might get squeamish about an article from a site that writes for Russian Media I'll include a second link for further explanation of this site's motives. I am referring to "The Strategic Culture" blog site.
Thanks, Mark, I am glad you concur. This was my first ever post on your site. I have been reading your site for some time now and find your articles highly informative and the commenters here engaged, but always polite, no raging hate-filled arguments. I look for your updates with much enthusiasm. Great work and much appreciated!
The Elephant in the Room the eGOP is desperately trying to avoid are the 2020 Election Fraud and Jan 6th FBI false flag / casus belli, which is a modern day Reichstag Fire. The eGOP is trying to throw a bit of raw meat to their very upset voters to quiet them down a bit, and have decided Covid is a safe issue, as well as the Domestic Terrorist Letter.
It does not look like this is working out very well:
“Video shot by John Sullivan, also known as Jayden X, shows that Babbitt tried to stop the violence against the Speaker’s Lobby at least four times before she climbed into a broken window and was shot by U.S. Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd. At one point, she was so distressed at the violence, she was jumping up and down in frustration,” Epoch’s Joseph Hanneman reports.
The real problem is most all political officeholders are actually members of the Globalists United Party, they are not blue donkeys or red elephants, they are a bunch of little purple bait fish . . . GUPpies!
Yes, Ray, and I'll go you one better and posit that the Uniparty members in Congress are only now raising these "troubling" issues because the Fourth Branch has given them the green light to do so, because it fits the plan to pivot the Mass Formation from "jabs and masks are wonderful" to "Fauci and co are evil and we need our heroes in Congress and CIA to save us." And it's inevitable that they will try to include Trump in the dock of villains.
Truth. What would 535 GOP members do? Maybe get a sternly worded letter out of an even 20? State politics maaaaay still have some utility but federal is hopeless. Like expecting a bunch of Iraqi parliamentarians to reform Saddam.
With SCOTUS yesterday refusing to halt mask requirements on commercial airlines, you have to wonder if they even keep up with recent events. Then there are the Virginia Karens whining about Governor Youngkin lifting the mask requirement in schools for those who no longer wish to abuse their children.
How does SCOTUS and the Virginia Karens get past this article from the Federalist two days past:
CDC Finally Admits Cloth Masks Were Always Political Theater.

I thought the first article by Alastair Crooke was spot on.
"I thought the first article by Alastair Crooke was spot on."
Yes.

Thanks very much--I used that link extensively in the latest post.
I second that. The quality of comments on this site is superior by far to that of CTH, Malone or Berenson.

Dan Crenshaw's latest statement on the Jan. 6th prisoners was disconcerting.

As well as a Never Trumper (my guess Senator Toomey) letter to a constituent on Jan. 6th:

Why am I not surprised?

I am truly ashamed of my Texas congressional delegation, what a group of jerks, that need to be primaried into outer darkness! More on Crenshaw: https://texasscorecard.com/state/crenshaw-snaps-at-young-attendee-at-montgomery-county-tea-party-meeting/

Ginned up - Lots of truth in what you wrote.
After thinking about the original article Mark referenced, I feel like I am reading Pravda.
Note how it says only a dozen Republican's. Out of what, 266 in the House and Senate?
Sounds like this even luke warm statement on the Jab and labeling parents as terrorists is by less than 5% of the GOP Members of Congress.
Truth. What would 535 GOP members do? Maybe get a sternly worded letter out of an even 20? State politics maaaaay still have some utility but federal is hopeless. Like expecting a bunch of Iraqi parliamentarians to reform Saddam.
You've convinced me. I'll never vote again.
Hahahaha...good one
Preach it, ginned!

Malone has been pretty clear that CIA is heavily involved--and he would know.
