QUESTION #1: OK. Now what? The Democrats seem to be just vindictive and do not represent all the people. Any thoughts on the future?

QUESTION #2:  Hello Martin.
You and Socrates are the only sane people/AI in a totally insane world for the time being. Thanks for that.
From a Swedish perspective, it is completely absurd what we see unfolding in Washington DC among these corrupt politicians. If Trump leaves without some security guarantees, they will probably chase him and his entire family all the way to hell with various accusations, lawsuits, and maybe even arrests. Maybe he can make an art of the deal with Pence and let him step in 24 hours before noon 20th and pardon Trump and his family against all possible accusations or maybe even make an art of the deal with Biden, for the good of the country, etc.

What do you think and what does Socrates say?

ANSWER: Trump’s biggest flaw is he does not know when to stop. Think a rally would show he had support was not necessary because he had the support and a number of Republicans were going to contest the vote despite the fact it would not win. All the conspiracy theories that Pence would just unilaterally declare Trump the winner were absurd. That was a fringe opinion at best. I stated that once the Supreme Court rejected the Texas suit it was over. The absurd statements that they were telling him how to bring the suit were obviously made up by people that do not understand the law. I do think he should step down, cut a deal with Pence, get a pardon for him and his family. The press will never allow him to come back.

However, the Democrats are exhibiting the same flaw at the very start of their term as Trump. The political winds have shifted masterfully and I would not doubt that someone orchestrated the breach of the Capitol knowing it would discredit all Trump supporters and open a clear path for the Democrats to act like dictators. Rarely does it get more favorable for a party than the Democrats now enjoy! Besides winning control of the White House and both the House and Senate, Joe Biden will get the Cabinet and judges he wants and the path is open to tax changes as well as rules in the Senate to silence the Republicans completely. Media is their lapdog and can be counted on to cheer whatever Biden says and every move he makes. They interfered in the election far more than they accused the Russians. Likewise, BigTech is expecting their payoff in the form of entering banking.

I have warned that “Trumpism” pre-existed Trump – it is the anti-establishment movement that can be traced back to Andrew Jackson. The Republican Party is in shambles because they blame everything on Trump and in the process will disavow the very reforms people have sought. The computer shows an absolutely disastrous two years ahead. The Democrats are blinded by their dictatorial power when in fact they never won a mandate. Nevertheless,  they will push forward to change the face of America and in the process, this is not going to be so easy and they are celebrating right now.

House Democrats failed Monday in their first bid to punish President Trump after his supporters were allowed into the Capitol they wish to characterize as an insurrection when it seemed more like a Woodstock fest with people taking selfies rather than actually overthrowing the government unarmed. Nevertheless, Pelosi is being very vindictive not to just demoralize Trump, but by attempting to make him the first president ever to be impeached twice, she is really trying to discredit. the anti-establishment sentiments in the nation.

Our computer is showing a very choppy year ahead. On top of that, the economy will continue to decline into 2022. What we will see is what I have warned about. Republics are the WORST form of government for they pretend they are democratic, but they are ruthless tyrannical regimes. I continue to warn that you should not be allowed to change the system structurally without a 2/3rd vote. Even to amend the Constitution requires 38 states out of 50 of 76%. Congress should not be allowed to change the rules to end filibusters to usher in an authoritative dictatorship with 50.4% of the vote. This will still lead to violence and the Supreme Court should have ruled on the evidence yes or no. Refusing to take the case leaves both sides convinced about the other. That is not a government that will represent everyone.

Vice President Mike Pence has rejected House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s demand that cabinet members of the Trump administration invoke the 25th Amendment:

Speaker Pelosi will now move forward with article of impeachment in the house tomorrow.

It should come as no surprise the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (CoC) would join hands with leftist democrats & begin withholding financial support for congressional representatives who supported President Trump.   You might remember in August of 2020 when the CoC admitted to supporting far-left democrats in the 2020 election cycle.

WASHINGTON DC – The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the powerful pro-business [multinational] lobbying group, said Tuesday it will halt political contributions to certain lawmakers following the deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol last week.

“There are some members that by their actions will have forfeited the support of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Period, full stop,” Neil Bradley, chief policy officer at the Chamber, said in a press conference.

[…] “It’s also a mistake not to recognize the elected officials who really stood up in very trying and difficult circumstances and we’re going to continue to operate a program that supports them and helps them in our efforts to lead our country,” he said. (read more)

Big Tech Tyrants

While luxuriating in Tahiti, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey made a shameful but bold decision: He removed thousands of conservative voices from his platform, including GrrrGraphics. Our mass violation? We were all pro-Trump. Dorsey lied and said we were promoting violence while he allowed ‘hang Pence’ messages to stay.

Not to be outdone, Jeff Bezos also ‘cleansed’ the Twitter alternative, Parler, from his company’s cloud servers. Trump supporters are now being smeared as ’terrorists’ by the far left mega billionaires.

BREAKING @GRRRGRAPHICS HAS BEEN SUSPENDED FROM TWITTER FOLLOW US ON GAB SAME ID @GRRRGRAPHICS

Throughout 2020, Facebook was busy censoring conservative voices on their platform. Mark Zuckerberg is good friends with China’s President Xi. Zuckerberg speaks Chinese. He asked Xi to name his child. Zuckerberg clearly interfered with the election by refusing to allow any comments or links to Hunter’s notorious laptop. Facebook went the Hillary route of lying and said (with zero proof) that it was ‘Russian disinformation.’

Try using Google for any searches of conservative opinions and you’ll see page after page of leftist opinions stating why conservatives are wrong. Goggle does evil and it’s now nothing more than a socialist propaganda arm—not a search engine.

Many on the left claim it’s perfectly fine for these CEOs to burn conservative opinions. After all, they are private companies and can do whatever they want. Not exactly. They are publicly-held companies. Today Twitter’s stock got slammed and rightfully so. Let’s hope the mega billionaires are all taken down a peg or two, but more importantly, we all need to point out the hypocrisy of the left for blatantly violating our First Amendment.

The lefty mega billionaires know their plans for us are unpopular. Their ideas don’t stand up in the marketplace of ideas, so they want to limit and control that marketplace. They know this is not aligned with our Constitution, but they don’t care. They admire the Chicom system more. Hence their naked display of reckless power.

They must be awfully afraid if they’re resorting to silencing millions of Americans.

It is clear that the police opened the doors and stood by as they allowed protestors into the Capitol. They have now charged some police for allowing people in. That is not grounds to impeach Trump. But Pelosi is doing this to try to tar and feather him to prevent him from ever running again. She is also trying to demoralize anyone who voted for him – a very standard psychological warfare tactic to crush the Republican Party into dust.

This is the same routine they pulled off for 9/11. I have laid it out that while the terrorists hijacked the planes, the government knew that was coming and allowed it to take place to gain tremendous power. The first crew of terrorists were in MCC and even drew the Twin Towers on the wall with planes going into them. It was the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) employee Mr. Kumb who provided the recreation materials they used. The BOP came down to 10 south and filmed everything. They knew what was coming down and used it to expand their power allowing it to happen.

I already receive hate mail blaming everything on Trump supporters, so lock-up 50% of the country. The hatred is pouring out, so I do not see how there will be reconciliation going forward when our computer has Panic Cycles in politics in 2022. That’s why we have Socrates — it will take a computer to shift through all this nonsense.

Project Northwoods was the same scheme, which is on the pro-government site Wikipedia. Kill Americans and blame Cuba to justify an invasion. This “siege” of the Capitol did not appear to be breaking down doors. It will be used to push through the Domestic Terrorist Act and, once again, increase the power of the state, which was written ahead of this event.
