Once Joe is removed, Kama Sutra is the only thing keeping Kevin McCarthy OUT of the White House......

He is conveniently third in line now after 15 votes tp get him there?

Coincidence?

Payback for the Repubs for going along with removing Trump?

Kevin McCarthy = Paul Ryan.

Deep State.

My gut instinct about Dimon's drivel is that the NY Guys know Davos is road kill & are desperately hoping that we'll just keep limping along in the same ole dysfunctional manner so they - NY Guys - can occupy Davos' seats at the global & domestic tables. His appeals sound tormented to me. Some really high placed people are running for the exit lately - Klain, Ardern. In particular, Ardern went from a person w/all the control to looking like someone who had no control. Why?

I can't speculate on what happens if FJB is shuffled thru the exit door, but I just don't see Kama Sutra, Newsome or Buttplug having a chance. Something's in the air & I'll be open to solutions from outside of the box unless or until one of the proposed scenarios plays out.

"can occupy Davos' seats at the global & domestic tables." Great point. Also, as Mark has noted when discussing the Luongo "Theory of Everything," a successful WEF would mean the end of commercial banking. So for guys like Dimon, the conflict with the WEF is existential.

Same means, different ends?

Shd tear away from screen to prepare for work wk, but a couple of unrelated things that are standing out to me today are that Kamala is ramping up her public appearance schedule.

Also, it's rumored that FBI has nabbed files from FJB's residence going way back to his Senate days? He was Chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Comm just prior to becoming VP. Cd be something, cd be nothing. I just watch.

Most people learn current events via the MSM. Now that is changing due to bloggers with reach. The media told us “what to think” with Nixon. Same with Ron Paul, Trump and Russia, Covid, Ukraine now Zhou with many other examples in between. It seems clear now that what we were told by the government via its media arm was woefully incomplete. The point being the silencing of some people and/or data seems to be squarely in the MSM’s wheelhouse. I currently believe that what I hear in the media is all spin. Regardless of source, they have a reason to tell me and not tell me something. I am upset that this larger picture’s clarity is so new to my thinking.

We are fast splitting into two parallel societies. News provision reflects that divide. Nowadays, all truthful news is broken on the alternative media. So many great analytical blogs to choose from.

Alternate theory for the Biden hitjob. They need to extract themselves out of this Ukraine mess, having gotten all the benefits they are going to get. Putin will not negotiate with Biden (shady election) and so BIden/Harris need to go.

Getting rid of Biden covers a multitude of sins: it gets rid of an increasingly loose cannon who has come to believe that he can actually do stuff; it provides a scapegoat for Ukraine and Covid, and it gives a reason to get rid of Trump. With the "discovery" of the docs and the downfall of Biden, they can now go after Trump for the "same" offence and claim that they are cleaning up DC. They'll probably even claim that they are draining the swamp.

Apparently, it was an FBI visit without a warrant. I wonder what all the Leftists who applauded the raid on Trump will say about that?

Seems like Trump posted a 'Truth' on his network that the raid on MAL facilitated what is happening to Biden now?

Wonder how many more times Biden’s going to use the “oops” excuse. What a frickin disaster this guy is. Only accomplishment he can possibly lay claim to is that his time in office has permanently wrested the title of “Worst President in the history of the country” from all other contenders.

How was it Queen Victoria put it, “We are not amused!”

Biden just implemented or re-instated all the horrible freedom & prosperity robbing dictums from at least the four admins before Trump. They were all worst (each one had a specialty "worst"? 😂), as was LBJ.

As a native (former) Texan, I never thought I'd say or think this of the three Texas presidents, but now I do.

Perhaps the hit job is really on Ron Klain, since he controls Biden as chief of staff.

This way another puppet master, Anita Dunn perhaps, can be installed.

Sundance thinks it’s to pave the way for my amazing Gov hair gel, oops I mean Gavin Newsom, Pelosi’s former nephew in law, and definitely a member of the elite (French Laundry cemented that). If even Biden can get “elected”, I guess the Democrats can install anyone as Potus.

Sometimes reality is stranger than fiction:

Lest we were concerned the puppeteers above the puppeteer that controls the puppet might try anything different puppeteer or puppet-wise?:

"Breaking: Biden has picked former White House COVID Coordinator Jeff Zients as Chief of Staff. Zients, whose net worth is $150 million+, pushed for strict employer vaccine mandates, led the censorship of Americans, and told the unvaccinated they faced “severe illness and death.”

Klain was Obama's 'Ebola Czar' & had some connection to the H1N1 effort as well. Makes me hopeful that what's happening now might have more reach than we're told.

We need to acknowledge the critical role that government plays? Government will never become competent and accountable. We have not only dumped Trump, we no longer have the rule of law. There is now a crisis of confidence and the American people no longer trust elections, the people who 'win' them or the bureaucracy. We need to acknowledge that the American people have to take personal responsibility for their lives, their fortunes and their very survival. The government has its own agenda.

For someone who said that Trump isn't the way forward there is an awful lot of MAGA in what Dimon says. Dimon is not stupid and has several times stated his belief that the American economy (and by extension that of the West) is fossil-fuel dependent for many decades to come. Anyone who isn't stupid agrees. Some of what he says may be Pablum but really, much of it is truly realistic and practical.

The question, to which Gavin alludes, is just who will be their champion and who would the NY boys control in a future administration? Even if they controlled the Congress and the Executive, what about the bureaucracy? What about the intelligence agencies? If Kamala becomes President there will still be a Clintonite or Obama-controlled (essentially Neocon) foreign policy team in place. How will that overcome the WWIII insanity? Lots of questions to be resolved even if the NY boys are our temporary allies.

Mr. Wauck, on 12/19/22 you wrote, "We already have seen strong hints from Jamie Dimon that he’s backing DeSantis because he doesn’t believe Trump is part of the solution. Dimon is also backing Powell. Dimon’s JPMorgan is the most powerful private commercial bank in the world, and Dimon clearly views Davos as an existential threat." Trump was elected in 2016 by telling us he had "no special interests" and was the only person who could stop the bureaucracy. Unfortunately, he did have special interests named Jared and Ivanka whose deeply held views were the opposite of 2016 Trump voters. He made Jared de facto president, the absolute last word in the WH, which included his censoring Covid meetings to make sure Davos narrative prevailed. This should be no surprise considering Soros is a business partner of Jared's. I understand DeSantis is owned by the Deep State war machine, but it turned out, contrary to what he said before election day, that Trump was as well and also a worse neocon than McCain. As you suggest, the topic of Deep State control is likely moot. After all, in Aug. 2017 the House and Senate removed all Russia decisions from Trump and reassigned them to the Senate. Somehow the Deep State was fine with Trump's March 2020 decree of "emergency government" with no end date. In Jan. 2020 Trump was in Davos singing praises of Ivanka's "leadership." The term "Trumpian" applies only to words..

Is RdS really owned by the DS? Maybe he's just being backed by people who don't want to see the whole financial system destroyed by the Dems.
