I want to briefly go back to my initial reaction to this Deep State hit on Zhou—that it is, in fact, a Deep State coup and that the motive behind it is the unprecedented, existential, crisis of the American Empire.Thanks for reading Meaning In History!
A little off topic but 'coup' related. Have you seen this thread derived from FOIA requests aimed at Barr, and his inaction to investigate anything at all related to election fraud.
Interesting peek at how it all works to compromise people in government. Larry Johnson's bit about Ron Klain possibly seeding documents in Biden's possession, how long ago? It's like placing charges in a building so it can be detonated remotely as needed.
To be honest, I've been too preoccupied to pay attention to Santos. That was an eye-opener. Tx.
Re the rest. Dumping Zhou to get Trump--sounds easy, but it's not really. No guarantee at all, because the two cases are totally different, which Jen should know. Plus, Dumping Zhou really does lead to a lot of big problems.
Doing SCs just to throw a blanket over legal problems? That causes problems, too. Raises questions.
Understood. I found Dyers take interesting to mean maybe Zhou is doing this by design to garner the cloak of an Sec to shield his son from upcoming House inquiries.
Like a father taking one to protect their kid. That’s how I read it.
Whatever the triggers for Zhous removal, between US deep state and our global malign ownership, bet that who or what comes next will still not have America's best interests in mind.
Matthew Continetti sums up the neocon (globolib) amorality nicely. Ukraine lives and wealth massively destroyed at pennies on the dollar to secure Nuland/Blinken/Sullivan whims. What a bargain.
Best punchline ever will be comparing the heads of state before the war with the player roster afterwards. The war to bring back the head of Vladimir Putin has so far blown off the heads of the leaders of Italy and UK(twice). Biden is next on the wall. The final tally will go even higher. With Putin's still firmly attached to his neck.
I did watch the biased "Face the Nation" this morning. What a joke. Did not watch "Meet the Press" however J. Turley's twitter describes Chuck Todd on fire with Senator Johnson. We gotta quit going on these shows.
This all began when WH Counsel Dana Remus (Biden's previous counsel) leaves the WH in Oct for the land of Covington (Gen. Flynn). This occurred in early October 2022 and she was the one who identified the documents in the Biden/Penn office in early November.
What complicates this is Biden's WH counsel is acting as his personal counsel (Sauber) crossing the lines of WH and personal and giving DOJ authorities THE access to the documents after HE's scrubbed them.
So we now are in the hands of an SC to sort this out. Ugly, ugly, ugly. it'll be deep-sixed so much. Those neocons in power will make the decisions going forward. Don't believe Kama Sutra fits in at all.
As we've seen, powerful/influential lawyers and financiers are adjuncts to the Deep State. Facilitators. She can provide a plausible alibi to shield the decision makers. She isn't the one who decided to do a hit on a president.
Great write-up! Perhaps the powers that be have decided to pivot away from Ukraine which will now be thrown to The Bear. This and the rest of the disasters will be laid at the feet of Biden and surrounding idiots. The Pivot to China will be real this time. How hard will they move against Biden? Will they hang China grift around his neck and accuse him of sabotaging our relationship with Russia, a nation we need to try to balance China? Putin would not buy it but would it be enough to allow mutual interests to overcome the recent mismanagement of our relationship with Russia? Mad speculation on my part!
WRT DC politics, my question would be "What is the next headline to look for?" If this is going to unravel quickly, there should be some anticipated 'events' that will happen. Will it be resignations or firings, as you suggest with personnel moves?
I didn't watch any of the Sunday 'news' shows, so I'm in the dark as to what the latest misinformation campaign the MSM is trying to sell the public after a week of Biden-on-the-Rocks.
Fifty years ago Deng Xiaoping was purged, twice, from the ruling hierarchy of the CCP.
One might say our 45th President was also purged.
One way for the leftist to get out from under this mess is to pass it off to President Trump...
A tactical retreat, in order to survive and fight another day.
No matter how this plays out, that is, who remains after the dust settles, the multitude of crises will remain.
The Art of the Deal:
The whopper of all deals, we let you back in DJT, in turn you promise
1) to pull your punches against us, and
2) fix the multitude of crises...
Sundance proposed earlier as part of trying to get out from under, that any investigation should have amnesty for testimony, that amnesty would be the only way to bring sunlight to what had/is happening.
Trump's time has passed. Assuming any patriotic Potus can still right the ship, Trump isn't that guy. If he gets back in, he'll continue to pick deep staters and spend too much time on Twitter wars instead of doing what needs to be done. We need a human wrecking ball in there!
And that will be their downfall. Like any psychopaths, they start on small stuff but then get carried away. When they try on the bigger stuff, people sit up and take notice. They blow their cover.
Important that as info and data flow to remember to trim the thinner-side of your seat...
As we live through this *shameless plug time* Meaning in History Mark shares, do keep in mind some (most) of the on-coming events have major risk with extreme consequences.
As a praying man myself, I find that perhaps it a fit, timely reminder for all observers to be one/become one. Some of the prospective consequences are terminal... (WRH Idaho)
Ukraine is supposedly sending troops here to be begin training on the Patriot missile system. If they have any sense they’ll dessert.
Zelenskyy has been promised more tanks apparently from Germany. Are the Germans going to send them after these warnings? Sounds like Putin is going to be in position to blow them up before they get off the trains and trucks that will deliver them. What if Germany looks around and just says NO?
Normally, the Nat'l/Internat'l politics won't affect our daily lives much. Long term of course; look around at our Alphabet Cancel-culture controlling, junk-media and failed education system culture of 2023 - have been decades in it's demise. However, some of the prospective consequences of 'Ukraine' are life-threatening on a global scale. Above the already huge toll on human life ongoing is a risk of Nuclear engagement due to the incompetent US[s]A's leadership behavior (whoever that is).
President Kennedy had a real cause of concern (as does Putin does similarly). WE are the ones with the 'Armageddon' talk threats and WE (well, officially NATO) are the ones having gone back on agreements w/Russia on security buffers they need. Hate Russia? Okay, but one must confess they've a good argument of 'securing their country' from NATO. Our lies did not help 'our side' of the argument, I'd say.
Shoot, I got my Debbie-Downer thing on and I was wanting to celebrate your fun comment!(Apologies about that). Blessings S'21, Hope your New Year is great! (WHR Idaho)
NATO knows all these things already. It's not complicated. EVERYONE has no other choice but to stay the course to save face. They're just waiting for Russia to "slip up" in order to up the game with armies and a more formal war. So far no Russian missiles have fallen on non-Ukraine countries. Don't expect this to happen either. Therefore everyone's stuck to stay the course.

Big blow to NATO. Thanks, I hafta run in a few minutes.
Best wishes to you and the wife on your multitude of appointments!

And wasn't Austin just over there talking to them?

Dyer came out with a blog this morning. Interesting take on all of this.

Nope.

Risking WW3 would almost be worth it, if it leads to Nuland, Kagan, Blinken and people like Richard Perle getting their just desserts.
Yes!

As we've seen, powerful/influential lawyers and financiers are adjuncts to the Deep State. Facilitators. She can provide a plausible alibi to shield the decision makers. She isn't the one who decided to do a hit on a president.
Agreed. I just hope the stand-in as SC followup this thread with Dana and works back upstream. Try to find out who the real figures are.

That’s a lot of well structured narrative with attitude that gets the point across quickly
Thank you
Four great posts, Mark, TY.
Comments are great, too. Thanks all.

Amnesty for all, even President Trump!

Reminds me of the series Veep.
I like the looks of that limb you’re on. I hope it is firmly attached to a sturdy tree with very deep roots.
Great catch, DF!

I'm investing in scrap metal. Any maybe uranium.

That's all they are capable of - doubling down on failure.
If true, this should sideline HRC for awhile.
Looks like her ox is gonna get gored.
Is she that clever? She lost to Trump and Obama.
