During his remarks in Pennsylvania, President Trump described the raid on his Florida home, Mar-a-Lago, by the FBI and DOJ.
President Trump called the raid, “one of the most shocking abuses of power by any administration in American history… a travesty of justice that made a mockery of America’s laws, traditions, and principles before the entire world.” WATCH:

After waiting a full media cycle (26 hours) to evaluate the landscape, the team behind Florida Governor Ron DeSantis coordinated an “exclusive interview” with Laura Ingraham to give his opinion on the divisive speech by Joe Biden.
Carefully navigating the political waters to avoid the terms “MAGA republican” or “Trump,” DeSantis gave a down the middle approved republican rebuttal. WATCH:

Joe Biden has hired John Podesta to be the new Clean Energy Czar [Announcement Here] citing his experience in progressive causes. Hilariously, the New York Times is running with a justification that Podesta holds some prior experience in advancing the climate change agenda. [See Here]
(NYT) […] In bringing on Mr. Podesta, Mr. Biden continues to surround himself with veterans of past Democratic administrations, old hands who can step into challenging positions without on-the-job training.
“His deep roots in climate and clean energy policy and his experience at senior levels of government mean we can truly hit the ground running,” Mr. Biden said of Mr. Podesta in a statement. (more)
If Podesta is the new Clean Energy Czar, it begs the question of what the heck John Kerry is doing now? I digress.
You might remember that Steven Chu was the Obama Climate Change Czar for the first clean energy boondoggle that came as an outcome of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), those shovel ready jobs that didn’t materialize and carried the Solyndra spending nonsense.
John Podesta had nothing to do with the Obama-era clean energy initiatives or energy spending programs. Podesta was inserted into Obama’s orbit in the second term (2013) specifically to watch out for Hillary Clinton’s interests when she left to run for President. Podesta later joined her in 2015 and took over the strategy team.
Bottom line, John Podesta is being now being hired to divvy up the $316 billion in Green New Deal money recently authorized by congress. That is what Podesta specializes in, the distribution of taxpayer money to DNC allied groups and networks in advance of the 2022 midterms. Podesta, Hillary’s fixer, is a bagman, nothing more.
Podesta will now take the $316 billion and distribute the funds according to political priorities. Anyone who says anything different is being intellectually dishonest and obtuse in the extreme.
[White House] – Today, President Biden announced that John Podesta will serve as Senior Advisor to the President for Clean Energy Innovation and Implementation and Ali Zaidi will be promoted to Assistant to the President and National Climate Advisor. In his new role, Podesta will oversee implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act’s expansive clean energy and climate provisions and will chair the President’s National Climate Task Force in support of this effort. Zaidi will step into the role of National Climate Advisor and will be vice-chair of the National Climate Task Force. Gina McCarthy will depart the White House on September 16. (more)

Everything you need to know about the background construct of Biden’s speech against “MAGA republicans,” can be found in the silence of the approved republican who is intended to benefit from it.
It is worth noting and emphasizing the specific target of this effort, lest the motive slips by while many are distracted by the outrage.
Joe Biden, together with and in direct coordination with, the two wings of the DC UniParty system, is not focused on ‘republicans’ as political opposition and domestic enemies. Joe Biden and his various conscripts are focused on a very specific type of republican, the “MAGA Republican.” The same enemy identified by Mitch McConnell and the GOPe donor class. This is not accidental.
While the institutions target Donald Trump himself, the political apparatus that supports the institutions is targeting Donald Trump supporters. Please pay close attention to this, and please pay even closer attention to the voices you do not hear. Silence can be deafening, but only if you are paying attention to it.
Last night’s speech in Philadelphia was a full-frontal assault on MAGA republicans, Donald Trump voters and supporters. There is no parsing or backtracking that can obfuscate the words used and the specific intention of them. Joe Biden would not read the script from the teleprompter if his handlers thought there was no benefit to it. He is saying what he says with purpose, specific intent and motive.
It is in the background of those words, where we should be paying very close attention right now to who remains silent. If you pay attention, you will notice the professional political class, the RNC club and the people who make the decisions about the club agenda, are conspicuously silent. As an example, go look for Ron DeSantis’ response to the Philadelphia remarks, you will notice a curious silence, which, hopefully, people will connect to the other moment of curious silence in the aftermath of the Mar-a-Lago raid.
How long does it take to respond?
How long did it take you to formulate an opinion of those disparagements you heard?
It can be uncomfortable to see, and even more uncomfortable to accept, the nature of what exists in silence…. agreement.
Other than a single rather timid tweet from the personal account of the acceptable republican, there was nothing in the aftermath of the Mar-a-Lago raid. Evaluations were being conducted. Those evaluations are seemingly again being conducted by the management team of the acceptable republican right now. Silence in the face of tyranny is agreement.
Those who have traveled these pages through the years know what it is like to accept discomfort. However, it is in the bigger picture that we can formulate plans to overcome the opposition. You are not the crew who would drag the Trojan Horse into the fortress. You are the crew who would build the kindling underneath it far away from Troy and then watch what happens when lit. You are the people who can see the false constructs.
That said, all is not bad news… In fact, the red speech from Joe Biden is actually awesome news. What this entire effort tells us is that they cannot find a way to get rid of the MAGA uprising, they are getting more desperate. In the background we can be assured the republican brand managers and image consultants are feverously working their polling and focus groups, and discovering they are not making a dent in the effort.
The Republicans are aligned with Left-wing Democrats throwing everything, including the kitchen sink and indictments against Donald Trump, yet his influence over outcomes within the party is unaffected. All of the effort in the world, against the MAGA coalition, is not having the desired effect. This must be making the managers of the approved candidate very frustrated.

The Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS) released the August Jobs Report [DATA HERE].
The topline is a net gain of 315,000 jobs with an increase in unemployment to 3.7%. However, the June and July jobs reports were revised down by 107,000 lower than previously reported, and if you look carefully at the data, you can see a serious problem.
Keep in mind, in the background is a release yesterday showing productivity within the economy dropping in the second quarter by 4.1%. [DATA] Combine the drop in productivity with higher wages of 5.7% and total wage costs per unit of business output are up 10.1%. Now we turn back to today’s employment release, and look at these three points of data:
(1) Unemployment for adult men and unemployment for Latinos increased in August. Adult men and specifically adult Latino men are losing their jobs. (2) The average number of hours worked in August dropped 0.1 hour to 34.5 hours. (3) Total employment amid those aged 16 to 19-years of age increased by 363, 000 in August:
•Total economic productivity drops [biggest quarterly drop since 1948]. •Men and Latinos are losing jobs. •Average hours worked drops. •Teenage employment increases. What do these four facts tell you?
A total of 363,000 more teenagers started working in August, yet the total net gain in employment overall was 315,000 jobs. That should be the headline of the August 2022 jobs report.
(CNBC) […] The unemployment rate rose to 3.7%, two-tenths of a percentage point higher than expectations, largely due to a gain in the labor force participation rate to 62.4%, tied for the highest level of the year. A broader measure of unemployment that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time jobs for economic reasons climbed to 7% from 6.7%.
Wages continued to rise, though slightly less than expectations. Average hourly earnings increased 0.3% for the month and 5.2% from a year ago, both 0.1 percentage point below estimates. (more)
We are quickly reverting back to the Dark Ages. Cooking and keeping warm with fossil fuels may become a luxury as the energy crisis spreads across the West. Reports are growing from Germany that people are stockpiling firewood before the winter season. Google search results for “brennholz” (firewood) peaked this August in Germany as their government announced they would continue supporting Ukraine indefinitely.
Half of German homes are heated by natural gas, while a quarter uses oil. Less than 6% reported using firewood, but that is set to change as even firewood is now in a shortage. Germany’s Federal Firewood Association announced earlier in the summer that wood was becoming scarce. People are now importing firewood from Poland, but people there are also buying up firewood as no one can afford these rising prices. Governments are offering no solutions, and people have reason to fear the future.
Versorgungssicherheit is a word describing the fear of a shortage. Due to this fear, many companies are rationing the number of firewood bundles people are allowed to buy. The Federal Network Agency expects gas prices to TRIPLE by early 2023. The energy crisis spreading across the West will result in growing civil unrest and could trigger a major geopolitical event across Europe as people will be faced with hardships this winter not seen in a lifetime.
The entire West will face higher energy prices due to climate initiatives and Russian sanctions. The British energy regulator Ofgem released a troubling report citing that the average household will pay $4,200 on energy over the next year, compared to the current $2,330 annual average.
The UK raised its energy price cap in April by 54% and is expected to raise it once more this October by 80%. “This will be devastating for many families,” Jonathan Brearley, chief executive of Ofgem, told the BBC. “The difficult news I have to give today is that prices look like they are continuing to rise.” This is a drastic understatement.
An Ipsos poll found that one in 10 people already find it “very difficult” to afford energy costs over the past three months, and two in 10 found it “fairly difficult.” Over a third have installed a smart meter, and two in five have tried price comparison websites to no avail. People are already unable to afford energy costs, and 29% admitted to dipping into savings to do so, while another 15% said they missed payments entirely.
The term “fuel poverty” is now commonplace and is used for households that spend over 10% of their net income on energy bills. The University of York forecast that two-thirds of households in the UK will face fuel poverty by the beginning of next year. Families with children are the most vulnerable. This is a direct result of lawmakers pushing the climate change agenda with ZERO alternative solutions in addition to blindly supporting Ukraine at the expense of their own people.
