Government in Exile

Wokeness

 "Peter" has some thoughts on the "Woke Movement."

The Woke warriors are waging war on America.

 

In the Woke world there is “Good Racism” that excludes whites from college dorms, safe spaces and Federal Aid programs. It prioritizes the illegal immigrant over the citizen. It rationalizes such actions as payback for perceived past sins of the whites, thus accusing the whites of today of being responsible for the sins of their ancestors hundreds of years ago.

 

The Woke brigade believes Americans are spoiled and should be paying much more for gasoline, heating and air conditioning. They believe the national debt doesn’t matter because we can just print more money to pay for it.

The Wokes believe that rich people who bribe a college dean should go to prison, but a black person who loots or murders or burns down buildings should not. Ideology must determine prosecutions, not the law. Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón is a prime example of a woke devotee.

 

The Wokes don’t acknowledge hypocrisy. They want to tell you how to live while living in mansions within gated communities. Elitists and social justice warriors see no hypocrisy in travelling in private jets or luxury cars, while whining about fossil fuels and carbon footprints.

 

The Wokes like homelessness and the border crisis for the same reason: it distracts attention from what they are really doing to further their agenda, spending trillions of dollars for left wing causes disguised as infrastructure and paid for by us taxpayers.

 

The Silicon Valley reign of terror is wokeness at its worst. Rational thought must be strangled in its cradle or people might catch on to what’s really going on. Free speech must be throttled.

 

Half-time Report from the Minneapolis Trial

"Manx" has some thoughts on the Derek Chauvin trial.

(WOW! Things are normalizing here on this board and we’re getting back to a bunch of old codgers sitting around Wendy’s Coffee Shop in El Segundo resolving all the world’s problems. Love it.)

Time for a half-time report on this trial from Minneapolis. Anyone else been watching it? I have. 

Firstly HLN News is the main purveyor on cable TV. Constant interruptions with talking head “experts” floating to the surface like you know what. Fortunately I cut the cord and use various streaming apps to aggregate what I watch. Have to say Black News Channel (BNC)  has been my first choice. Trial broadcast without constant  commercial interruptions. During potty breaks BNC “experts” have led to reduced volume and kept yours truly from throwing the remote through the screen.

So where do things stand as half-time approaches? Minnesota’s attorney general from Mecca is approaching a world of hurt. The defense has been sedate and avoided objections. Why? Let the mixed-martial arts witness speak as an “expert.” Let Minneapolis’ number one in seniority “top cop” with his very small homicide command  come on the stand as Grandpa-top cop-expert. He needs to retire.

The defense has given all the prosecution’s “experts” laughable proverbial rope. Prosecution has allowed so much B.S. into the record defense can enter whatever they want freely when it’s their turn and their real expert witnesses take the stand.

And you thought the O.J. trial was a debacle. At least the Minneapolis judge is no Lance Ito. 

 

China, Beware the Dragon

 

"Peter" has some thoughts about China.

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has stated to the world that they will replace the United States as world economic leader. They have also pledged to surpass us in military strength and projection of power on the sea, in the air and on land. Its no secret that they want to take over the world. Was phase one the Covid infection? We don’t know.

 

If the CCP were able to get their own agent elected POTUS, what would they have him do to further their goals?

Would they have this agent open our southern border to an uncontrolled influx of illegal immigrants, many infected with Covid19 to go forth and infect as many American citizens as possible?

 

Would they have this agent close down our most profitable industry, fossil fuels, with which we are dominant in the world, and throw hundreds of thousands of our citizens out of work, to the advantage of CHINA?

 

Would they have this agent close down the Keystone XL pipeline, throwing thousands more out of work and damaging our relationship with Canada, to the advantage of CHINA?

 

Would they have this agent initiate spending TRILLIONS of dollars on pet socialist programs that offer no return on investment and will cause hyperinflation, to the advantage of CHINA?

 

Would they have this agent initiate huge tax increases on corporations that will be passed along to our citizens in the form of higher prices on EVERYTHING, to the advantage of CHINA?

 

Would they have this agent initiate new laws to control elections to make sure the CCP agents stay in charge until we are defeated?

 

Sound familiar? Is our own government is waging war against us, to the advantage of CHINA?
