Tx for posting the Widburg! I do agree that “somebody is managing this” and has decided that Zhou’s use-by date has expired (due to his worsening cognitive decline? that, as a result, he can’t be trusted to follow the script from 2 years ago? Covid certainly can’t protect him now! Getting the team players at NARA involved again could tar and feather Zhou so he can resign or give up running in 24. Nice how all this comes out just before the SOU in early Feb. And of course this whole scandal engulfs Zhou, his son and brother in international money laundering and illicit/illegal transactions (Ukraine again), evidence of which is on the laptop in abundance if only puppet Garland cared to take a look (and Bluto before him). It’s a tangled web - a vengeful, icy determination to hold on to power - since now, as has been pointed out, the Uni-monsters ultimately decide who hangs his (or her) hat in the Oval Office.

I wonder if we will ever find out who is driving this, and the why…

It's not just that it seems so orchestrated; it's weird that Biden is being done for the exact same thing Trump was raided for just months previously. If you are attempting to tarnish Trump wouldn't you make doubly sure your guy couldn't be tarred with a similar brush? I can't help but wonder if the Mar E Lago raid wasn't linked to this current thing in some way. Maybe I'm reaching but isn't this too coincidental and convenient? Joe can hardly say it's no biggy having made such a song and dance about Trump.

And Pence just found top secret documents at his home:

And note how he notified the national archives.

Per Andrew McCarthy, if I understand correctly, that’s breaking the law:

Thinking about the Luongo theory (it was the NY banks ultimately behind it), the Pence discovery could be construed as the executive fighting back. How long until TS documents are found at the Cheney's?

The severity of the crime will be diminished with each new discovery... Everyone was doing it, what will we do, arrest everyone?

Smoking gun that is transitioning into dumpster fire. If true, resignation unavoidable.

The falling from grace of President #46? Not too far a drop, sadly to say. I will , however, offer some skepticism on this being 'end-game for Biden Presidency'. Hunter's laptop and much of it's contents have been 'out' for quite a while. Further, the several trips Hunter joined his VP dad on that upon return produced spectacular benefits and business deals for 'Hunter' were not really unseen. A billion and 1/2 'investment management' buck$ (if a 1% fee were charged that's around $150 mil/year, I believe) for a drug-addled loser seemed much more significant than the treatment it received. That said, exposure and 'possible dealings using these suddenly-found documents' can be downplayed, when necessary and their diversion complete since DOL maintains 'control' of investigations.

Mark, you know way better than I there's plenty of legitimate investigators in service @ DOL *sorry DOJ. (Too many fight with DOL in my truckin' years, I guess). Yet, by using DC office 'investigators' Mar A Lago was raided. I suggest Florida office staff wouldn't have engaged the show as it was done, even if they were convinced investigation was warranted. Granted, 'Biden', but his home(s) aren't being raided by armed, Dark clothed and BP vested military-like groups, such as Trumps' place was... a nicer search was/is being done which polishes that shiny object nicely.

Enough of my long diatribe: my fall-back remains; What to do with Cackles Harris, McCarthy, the gang of 8 and actual truth... If nothing else, the fact these things are going on represents a sad time in History... (Best Regards- WRH)

Math failure! *ONLY 15 mil/year on 1.5 Billion @ 1%.* Shoot, barely walkin' around money for the Biden, Int'l corporation. Serious note: Math aside, I attempted to point out blatant disregard for really obvious 'results'.

*/truthful Sarc on: Lyin-Biden said: "I never talk with Hunter 'bout dem business deals". So our faithful MSM did it's hidin' lyin-biden's behavior thing... (WRH)

I think you might be right. Taken down, no, but pushed out yes. I believe this is an operation to get it done now while they still control the upper chamber, the presidency and the DOJ in order to hide the evidence of not only the Biden families misdeeds, but all the other drip-drip of corruption leaking out. The arrest yesterday of an upper level FBI agent on charges of money laundering can only mean there is more corruption to come and presents our ruling class with a real dilemma. a crumbling administration, internal corruption and lawlessness and an international power grab for wealth and power is failing. the consequences of their panic and desperation could be a terrible outcome for the rest of us.

Hello CTK! Good observation. I'll suggest, the consequences just of their being in power is a terrible outcome - what is happening may prove worse - but... could it be for the better? Hope is a good thing ! Delusion isn't so I'll call it hope for now. Have an awesome day! (WRH)

Thanks, Wayne. Roger that, incompetence is crippling us. While hope is not a strategy you never want to lose sight of it!.

Rascal, your points are well taken and those scenarios make a lot sense. Removal is an action that is likely to have negative consequences for the regime and would seem to be an acknowledgement there are problems of their own making, which even a blind man can see. I sense an awakening among more people to just how corrupt this country has become under the direction of the powerful oligarchs in business and government who are acting for their sole benefit. Self interest is glaringly obvious and the propaganda is beginning to wear thin especially with the USA/NATO war on Russia. So, what gets done about it by the awakening is hard to envision as decades of prosperity and idyllic existence has dulled our senses such that we have become more easily susceptible to acceptance rather that resistance and hope to fix it under the next Republican administration, but that looks like a doubtful as control of elections has been lost for now.

The Regime's focus will be to contain the blow back while evading accountability for the criminality of the Biden's and the failed policies of the NEOCONS and Progressives who are clearly acting on a agenda revenge and hate (Russia and White conservatives) by destroying what we once knew as mankind for some clownish take on The Purge meets Mad Max and that morphs into a Blade Runner future. Where do ghouls like Yuval Hirarril hatch from? Inquiring minds want to know.

Hello again CTK,

For years I'd simply not understood how American citizens could behave/function as is happening. Not being particularly smart, I do see that less God=more Gov't. After millennia of Faith being foundational in human governance (with good and bad times therein, I'll admit; aka Roman Popes gov't controls having poor outcomes, some religious groups burning Protestants at the stake, others burning Catholics at the stake etc., for instance. Religion has always been dangerous: Faith via Relationship with our God works differently, but I digress), I do see the significant undermining of education; (hugely enabled by "The Great Society" of LBJ federalizing public Ed) that's allowed a full-on Marxist ideology take over. It began in college/university levels, when enough ideology was ingrained into the teachers produced, it was a simple path to K-12 ed, 'cause it was Public and of course, for the general good of all (hmmm, that sounds rather socialist to me). Anyways, my ability to understand struggles with it; example is the 'smart' phone... young(er) folk can not do without one. Period. It's not a real value to society or the individual to be provided one by our Gov't when you're being 'cared for' by said Gov't, yet it's one of the first things given to the army of 'Social-Welfare' dependents. Illegal alien or legal resident, what was designed to provide communication to be employable has become 'the Opiate of the People'. Long example and is but one point of many that has taken away the drive for personal responsibility and accountability. Self reliance now seems to mean knowing what Gov't agency to go to for free stuff. Okay, my cynical nature is showing there...

I'll stand on individual responsibility and accountability was core to our national success. That trait is, sadly not encouraged much (certainly not in the Gov't/public forum) and it's absence produces obvious results; look at any inner-city and see the drug-addled, Smart-phone bearing masses of unproductive humanity. Dangerous and much more would further describe them, but I've already used too many words here... Thanks for your considered comments-they certainly got me a-thinking! (WRH)

Mark already observed and notes odd stuff going on, I look forward to his posting on them. My thought always has been the intent not being the ouster of Biden but regaining full control, including his NOT running in 2024. I think ol' Joe started taking himself and his situation seriously, after all he 'is' the President... and his controllers were losing control. Their error(s) may have been thinking what they were/are up to are righteous and would work. Their loss of control won't be fixed by 'reigning in Joe'; it's just something they have some jurisdiction over. I'd note their denial is extensive. Tell 'it's what they wanted to do' to Putin and hundreds of thousand already-dead humans who might disagree with that agenda. And the millions facing starvation and freezing. (*Hope you're having a good week! WRH)

In light of today's events, I won't argue against that. Something big is going on.

RNO, I've blathered a lot of words in Mark's blog today, I'll keep this short (for me).

You are right, altho' some of the posting-mentioned 'contested stuff' may be due to not 'all' being in on the scam. Thieves are jealous associates... Take care, el' Northern Idahoan! (WRH)

So much, as you describe is true yet so conditioned are those in power to it I wonder if it's possible there could be a much-needed reckoning. I can hope, but honestly, it's gone on for so long, has become Global, the amount of bucks involved exponentially large, it may be the program can't be overcome. Global Financial failure, re-alignment of int'l money favoring Russia/China/India etc. with enough suffrage by 'the people' maybe it will happen. *(to lighten this comment)* This consideration is why, if asked about investments I recommend Brass and Silver. Silver coins are of small enough value to work in common barter and, Brass, of the correct calibers may be worth more than just about all typical metals... after all, it can be traded and serve a valuable, life saving function... :^) Peace, TxDude! (WRH an Idaho Dude...)
