Tom Luongo did a fascinating 50 minute interview with MelK just the other day, Cutting Through The Fog: As usual, Tom covers a lot of ground. The first 18 minutes deal with Garage Gate. Tom freely admits that there are at least three credible theories for what’s going on, to explain who did the hit on Zhou and why. A key here is that he expresses in his own way what I pointed out just the other day. Recall, I stated that Nothing Is Getting Better For Zhou. Tom points out: This isn’t going away. That’s all driven by the MSM, and it’s a sign that powerful forces are at work behind the scenes. If this were just some rogue actor leaking this information, the MSM would have buried this scandal, just as they’ve done repeatedly in the past when leftist interests were at stake. But
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.
One of the (numerous) quibbles I have w Dimon's view of the world is the lack of respect (common among our Elites -- that's why they are *elites*) expressed for the independence and integrity of those who are not 100% aligned with the American Enterprise: esp Russia, but also Iran, Syria, the other BRICs, OPEC+, etc.
In my view, the US has to learn how to respect other cultures and systems and lead by example and not by force and coercion, let alone wars, coups and regime changes.
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.
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.
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.
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..
It all seems very convoluted and long-winded to me. I think I'll stick with Occam's Razor for the time being: massive in-fighting between a bunch of power-crazed psychopaths.
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.

Off Topic? Red State reports classified documents from Biden's Senate years found Saturday in Biden's
Wilmington home.
Love that meme "The Real Virus". Bullseye.
Dimon? Really?
Milton Friedman: If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years there'd be a shortage of sand.
Dimons Manifesto reads like it was written by a capitalist only to be given as a speech to an auditorium full of collectivists...
