White House Occupant Blames Republicans for Democrats Refusing to Raise Debt Ceiling


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 4, 2021 | Sundance | 95 Comments

The Democrats control the White House, the House of Representatives and the Senate.  If Democrats want to raise the debt ceiling they can do so at any time.  However, because media provides them cover; and because the larger American electorate do not seem to understand how Congress works; the White House is attempting to blame Republicans for Democrats not wanting to raise the debt ceiling.  The insanity continues….

Kash Patel Predicts Six Months and John Durham Could Bring Indictments


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 3, 2021 | Sundance | 169 Comments

CTH begins every review of the Durham news with the following disclaimer:  If Special Counsel John Durham was going to reveal what optimistic folks proclaim as possible; how is Durham going to handle the reality that Robert Mueller’s entire existence was in place to hide it?…  Notably, Kash Patel was not asked that question.

Kash Patel appears on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the latest developments in the John Durham probe.   Patel formerly worked on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) with Chairman Devin Nunes, and was one of the key figures who authored the Nunes memo in early 2018.

Mr. Patel is optimistic in his discussion with Council on Foreign Relations member, Maria Bartiromo, and states that from his experience large conspiracy indictments can take several years to assemble.  Patel believes Special Prosecutor John Durham, now 30 months into his investigation, is working his way through the investigative material and could bring indictments against DOJ and FBI government insiders in roughly six months or more.

Patel’s perspective should make the ‘trusty planners’ very happy.   CTH does not have that same level of optimism or positive perspective for the primary reason of Robert Mueller.  However, presumably Kash Patel would know much more accurately about what took place from his central position next to Chairman Devin Nunes (2017/2018/2019), then next to Director of National Intelligence, John Ratcliffe (2020), and then next to Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller (’20/’21).  WATCH:

I would really like to see anyone ask this question:  If John Durham is going to reveal what many folks say is possible; how is Durham going to handle the issues with Robert Mueller and Andrew Weissmann who were put in place to hide it?

Additionally, oddly… or not…. Maria Bartiromo never asked Mr. Patel his opinion on the recently released OIG investigation of FISA files.

Rand Paul & Why


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Oct 3, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who was fully vaccinated, has tested positive for COVID. Obviously, getting the vaccine does not prevent you from contracting COVID or spreading it.

There is something VERY VERY VERY wrong here. This is from the CDC’s website, which clearly has a section on the measles vaccine (MMR), warning that those who have these conditions should NOT be vaccinated.

Now here is the page from the CDC on the COVID vaccine. There is no section whatsoever to warn people who should NOT be vaccinated. Why? Once you have had a disease, you do not get vaccinated against that same disease. There is something seriously wrong here. Nobody will answer the questions, and you are to be fired if you refuse, and there are no exceptions. For every other vaccine, there are exceptions, but not with COVID. This is no longer medical; it is political. The burning question:

Did The Fourth Branch of Government Release SARS-CoV-2 Then Blame China


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 2, 2021 | Sundance | 248 Comments

So much research has been done, we essentially know the majority of the background details.  The SARS-CoV-2 virus commonly known as COVID-19 was made in a lab by scientists.  The virus then went from a lab to the global population in late 2019/early 2020.  The epicenter of the outbreak appears to be one of the labs working on the virus in Wuhan, China.  Those essential big picture items are no longer debated; although the Chinese government does not agree for obvious reasons.

With the ‘where’, ‘when’ and ‘how’ essentially agreed, the question of ‘who’ and ‘why’ remains.

The Chinese have blamed the U.S. Intelligence agencies for releasing the virus.  The U.S. Intelligence agencies have said they don’t know who released it or from where. [LINK] The U.S. Intelligence position is weird and obtuse, then again, the Intelligence Community specializes in being weird and obtuse.

The cornerstone of the CTH hypothesis, regarding the ‘who’ and ‘why’ of the COVID-19 virus, is built upon the intelligence communitie’s odd position and one very key circumstantial point that stands out loudly.   The U.S. Pentagon was funding the creation of SARS as a biological weapon in Wuhan, China, under the auspices of national security. “Grants from the Pentagon included $6,491,025 from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) from 2017 to 2020” (link).

♦ Central Point – The Defense Department would not be spending money to develop a biological weapon in Wuhan, China unless they already had developed that weapon in the United States.   The Pentagon would not give a biological weapon to the communist Chinese unless the U.S. already developed it; and unless they already had a countermeasure to the consequences of it.

In the original pdf guidance for the 2014 research pause of into weaponization of SARS viruses there was an important footnote [LINK]:

[FN¹  SOURCE – U.S. Government Gain-of-Function Deliberative Process and Research Funding Pause on Selected Gain-of-Function Research Involving Influenza, MERS, and SARS Viruses – pdf, page 2 – October 17, 2014]

Timeline:

♦ October 17, 2014 – U.S. funding of SARS to create a biological weapon was paused due to the extreme risk of a pandemic.  However, the pause allowed agencies within the U.S. government to continue funding if they determined “the research is urgently necessary to protect the public health or national security.” [LINK]

♦ 2014 through 2020 the Pentagon continued funding research in Wuhan, China. Fear of discovery would explain why many top officials in the U.S. Defense Department were against the Trump administration [with increased severity after the COVID pandemic began]. [LINK]

♦ May 2016 – [An Election Year] – “after thorough deliberation and extensive input from domestic and international stakeholders, the NSABB [National Science Advisory Board for Biosecurity] issued its recommendations. NSABB’s central finding was that studies that are expected to enhance Potential Pandemic Pathogen (PPP) have potential benefits to public health but also entail significant risks. NSABB recommended that such studies warranted additional scrutiny prior to being funded.”  Anthony Fauci is on the NSABB.

♦ January 9, 2017 – [Four Days after the Susan Rice Oval Office meeting with Obama, Biden, Comey, et al] – The Obama Administration re-authorizes funding for the creation of SARS biological weapons.  “Adoption of these recommendations will satisfy the requirements for lifting the current moratorium on certain life sciences research that could enhance a pathogen’s virulence and/or transmissibility to produce a potential pandemic pathogen (an enhanced PPP).“ [LINK]

Given the workarounds, exceptions and plausible deniability for the consequences, built into the original moratorium guidance in 2014, the defense department was operationally permitted to keep funding the biological weapons research in Wuhan, China.  The 2014 ban was a funding moratorium in name only; however, it appears the funding for U.S. research in North Carolina was stopped.

What was reauthorized in 2017, just before President Trump took office, was the need to use “national security” as an excuse to continue the research.  It also appears funding of SARS as a biological weapon inside the U.S. (North Carolina) was now permitted again.

REFERENCES SO FAR:  – 2017 – Policy Guidelines from Obama Administration – 2014 – pdf link of Research Funding Pause – National Science Advisory Board (Wiki) – Pentagon Funding for SARS research 2013 through 2020.

If you accept that the Pentagon would never spend to develop a biological weapon in China (Wuhan Lab) unless they already had developed that weapon on their own (North Carolina Lab), then the question about the release of that weapon starts to take shape.

Remember, the State Department was looking into the origin until Joe Biden shut them down and redirected the goal to the Intelligence Community.  In essence, Biden handed the mission to the Fourth Branch of Government.   Not surprisingly, after a few months the IC said their results were “inconclusive.”

♦ [Excerpt] – […] In one State Department meeting, officials seeking to demand transparency from the Chinese government say they were explicitly told by colleagues not to explore the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s gain-of-function research, because it would bring unwelcome attention to U.S. government funding of it.

In an internal memo obtained by Vanity Fair, Thomas DiNanno, former acting assistant secretary of the State Department’s Bureau of Arms Control, Verification, and Compliance, wrote that staff from two bureaus, his own and the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation, “warned” leaders within his bureau “not to pursue an investigation into the origin of COVID-19” because it would “‘open a can of worms’ if it continued.”

[…] In late March, former Centers for Disease Control director Robert Redfield received death threats from fellow scientists after telling CNN that he believed COVID-19 had originated in a lab. “I was threatened and ostracized because I proposed another hypothesis,” Redfield told Vanity Fair. “I expected it from politicians. I didn’t expect it from science.” (read more)

♦ Washington (CNN) – “President Joe Biden’s team shut down a closely-held State Department effort launched late in the Trump administration to prove the coronavirus originated in a Chinese lab over concerns about the quality of its work, according to three sources familiar with the decision.

The existence of the State Department inquiry and its termination this spring by the Biden administration — neither of which has been previously reported — comes to light amid renewed interest in whether the virus could have leaked out of a Wuhan lab with links to the Chinese military. The Biden administration is also facing scrutiny of its own efforts to determine if the Chinese government was responsible for the virus.

♦ “On Wednesday, Biden issued a statement that he has directed the US intelligence community to redouble its efforts in investigating the origins of the Covid-19 pandemic and report back to him in 90 days.” (LINK)

♦ [WASHINGTON DC] – The intelligence community failed to conclusively identify the origin of the coronavirus following a 90-day investigation ordered by President Biden, but experts are divided on why. 

A report by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) found that officials were unable to rule whether the virus escaped from a lab or spread to humans through an infected animal.  But the ultimate conclusion reached by the $85 billion-a-year community was that it would be unable to pinpoint the origin of the virus if China didn’t fully cooperate.  (LINK)

If you have followed how the U.S. Intelligence Community operates, you can see a pretty clear picture emerge of a strong likelihood surrounding what took place.

The U.S. Defense Dept developed SARS-CoV-2 in North Carolina.  The 4th Branch (Intelligence Community) wanted to use it.  The Pentagon restarts funding for development of SARS-CoV-2 in partnership with Wuhan, China – setting up the cover story.  The 4th Branch (Intelligence Community) then uses the virus by releasing it in/around Wuhan.  Everything after that is simply part of the 4th Branch covering their tracks.  Wuhan, China becomes the patsy.

The IC release of COVID-19 would have two transparent motives for the 4th Branch:  (1) Get rid of Trump via mail-in ballots, and intelligence assistance toward the 2020 election result; and (2) Expand their influence and control operations as the most powerful force in U.S. government.

One of the central players, who likely knows the details behind who exactly executed the release, is former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who has been blaming the Chinese almost exclusively.  [Methinks he doth protest too much.]  Former DNI John Ratcliffe is also a staunch figure pointing at Wuhan, China.  Keep in mind DNI Ratcliffe was the recipient of the 4th Branch Intelligence Community products that pointed to Wuhan, China.

If it sounds like this thesis is too far ‘out there‘, then you may not fully understand how the Fourth Branch of Government operates.

Biden – No More Questions


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Oct 2, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Everyone in the press is starting to notice that Biden is being handled. His staff immediately shuts down any questions, and he walks off the stage when questions come. Rumors are starting to circulate that he has totally lost it, and his state of dementia is so bad they no longer can allow him to take any questions.

This clip is an example of his cognitive decline. There are deep concerns that he really should be removed from office, but they have the perfect puppet who will do whatever they say. He is the perfect candidate to allow foreign powers to run the United States. I fear this is why our computer is showing a Panic Cycle in politics for 2022.

We must understand that from a market perspective, EVERYTHING hinges on confidence in government. A collapse in confidence is what really caused the hyperinflation in Germany. For example, after December 1922, the government confiscated 10% of all assets. Hyperinflation is not caused by printing money, as that is the result of the collapse. So do not listen to those who talk about the collapse of the dollar. There is no other country that is not in the same boat.

When the majority figures out that they are doing this BECAUSE the governments can no longer function under Keynesian economics, that is when everything will go nuts!

The Target Generation – Prologue to Tyranny.


by Tabitha Korol

America will never be destroyed from the outside.  If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves. – Abraham Lincoln.  The weapon in use by the left is Critical Race Theory.

***

I received an emailed flyer, an announcement from an educator, its opening sentence an inquiry asking if we were aware of our biases, attitudes and stereotypes. It reminded me of that unanswerable question, “Have you stopped beating your wife?” Both a “yes” and a “no” condemn.  

I received an emailed flyer, an announcement from an educator, its opening sentence an inquiry asking if we were aware of our biases, attitudes and stereotypes. It reminded me of that unanswerable question, “Have you stopped beating your wife?” Both a “yes” and a “no” condemn.  

This was an outreach to a course that would introduce us to Critical Race Theory (CRT), an anti-American and anti-white/Christian movement that is making great strides through our schools (K-12 plus higher education), our media, news sources, and armed services.  CRT is a Marxist discipline that, by identifying biases and prejudices, regardless of whether they actually exist, sows the seeds of hatred and division, capturing and training the minds of many to fixate on the meaningless and disengage from what truly matters – a good education to navigate and live well in the world.  With only so many hours in the day, the old lessons are being laid aside to allow for the divisiveness to flourish, teaching that there are only two kinds of people, victims and victimizers, oppressed and oppressors, the downtrodden people of color and the exalted, advantaged whites. There are no winners in this dogma; that’s not the intent.  

An associate professor of psychology at a Florida college will be leading the class described as a workshop about Implicit Bias (IB), an unconscious bias toward an individual or group based on race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or gender identity.  The workshop will attempt todefine Implicit Bias; examine its origins; review its effect in education, justice, and management systems; and offer additional resources for studying and evaluating personal Implicit Bias.  The monster is conjured out of thin air and the professors will help us slay it – for a fee and political motive.    

Prior to the introduction of these ideas, people of all ages befriended each other because of common interests and circumstances, which is verifiable by the ever-increasing number of intermarriages and the variety of ethnicities in the workplace and neighborhoods.  But these superficial differences must now be taught in order to denigrate and demolish the past and make way for a new society of compliant drones.    

Left to our own, we naturally form opinions over the years because of our experiences and influences, not unreasonably.  As we grow and live, we are expected to face options and make decisions – our selection of activities, friends, reading material, schools, careers and jobs, marriage partners, homes, stores we patronize and items we purchase – everything!  That doesn’t mean our opinions are set in stone, as each new contact or experience may affect a previous view, but it is expected that by the time anyone reaches adulthood, (s)he should have amassed an immeasurable number of ideas about almost everything.  Sacha Guitrey is credited for saying “Wisdom comes from experience, and our experiences come from our foolishness.” 

But this class purports to be superior to a mere conveyance for wisdom. It is, ominously, a means of manipulating ideas and behaviors, teaching that one’s encounters and ideas must not be accepted carte blanche, that we must disregard our senses and allow others to control the narrative for the greater good.  The so-called “noble purpose” is always wielded to gain control.

This insidious theoryeradicates our G-d-given free will and aims to turn us into mindless, malleable, and obedient subjects of the powerful elite.   If we cannot validate our own opinions, then what have we learned at all?  Should we live day by day and remain incapable of assessing anything?  Should we be so fearful of opining that conversation is discouraged?  And if we think and act alike, would we not have sameness instead of diversity, boredom instead of variety, stagnation instead of the individual’s growth and the satisfaction that comes throughtalent and achievement?  But in the world of CRT, talent and achievement must be neutralizedfor the sake of uniformity and in the dubious interest of equity – equality of outcome.  Call it what they will, this would result in the dominion of tyranny.    

Surely, we must learn to judge whether something or someone is good or evil, right or wrong, fair or unjust, so that we might live in harmony with our fellow man.  If we are wrong to judge, then we are as mindless as the lowly amoeba.  God meant us to use our free will and to think, consider the options, and decide our own paths.  We are meant to weigh what to do under various circumstances, including to run from danger, but also to help others in need.  The Commandments caution to not bear false witness, but in order to protect others and contribute to a moral society, we must certainly bear witness.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., advised that we shall judge people by the content of their character.  Today’s Woke authoritarians judge by the color of one’s skin – a superficiality that accords with the selective extermination program of Hitler’s imperialists. 

The course invitation has a negative overtone, using “bias” instead of “opinion”  to put us on the defensive and shut us down. This results in our backing off lest we utter something that will be criticized, just as the Woke politicos have curbed our thoughts, redefined much in our vocabulary, and limited the interchange of ideas on the Internet.  The purpose is to make people feel vulnerable and defensive, choosing to retreat and comply for acceptance,  With all the fearmongering surrounding the covid virus, wearing masks that shroud our expressions, the nearly-mandatory injections while suppressing medicines proven effective, threats of job loss and isolation, there come more control and the surrender of freedom in the name of security. 

I admit to not having the lesson plan, but CRT is based on introducing ways of making people ashamed of what they are, thereby allowing themselves to be intimidated and controlled.

There are many ways of achieving control. Islam does so by keeping its people suppressed and ignorant; Nazism did so by exalting a certain group to the level of ubermenschen/supermen. The ultimate cost to both groups is the loss of humanity.

In America, the first among nations to legalize freedom and equality for all, we have a group of progressives, Marxists, that is working diligently to dominate our society.  The Boards of Education have changed the history books to discredit America and erase the ideals we set for ourselves.  The learning process has been so destroyed that we have finally reached a point where Oregon’s Governor Kate Brown signed into law that students may graduate without proof that they can read, write, or do math.  Students across America are being prepared for nothing but submission to the state for menial, mindless labor and communist social-justice issues.

With the dwindling threat of climate change, since alarming deadlines passed with no discernible disaster, the biases of personal characteristics are always the go-to guarantor of success.  Skin color and religion are the indictments as current today as they’ve been in the past, the attributes that the undereducated respond to most readily.  Presented in every class, all day long, the children are submerged in their differences, what demeans and makes groups vulnerable, each in its own way. The pupils of color are taught that they are worthless victims of the whites, and the whites are taught that they are innately evil and the cause of all wrongdoings.  Everyone is deemed without value and burdened with anxietyabout what it takes to undo their inferiority and liability.  Having already been deprived of God and prayers, of the cohesive family, their heritage, their genders, their desires and ability to produce the next generation, they become willing to self-annihilate, if not yet literally, then figuratively to be the last of their lineage.   

If they’ve dropped climate change, they discuss over-population, with Bill Gates’s assurance that he hopes to depopulate the world and has the means to do it. 

Fears abound: the dangers of food scarcity, while stipulating that we should not be eating beef and its dairy products, chicken and fish.   There’s always vegetarianism, except that Gates and China have purchased enormous acreage of agricultural land.  Gates says we will eat engineered meat from insects, or the migrants who come by the tens of thousands – shades of Soylent Green

The elite have found their niche, and they’re playing it for all its worth. The young are the Target Generation.

If Politics Are Downstream From Pop Culture, Then What is FJB Telling Democrats


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 2, 2021 | Sundance | 322 Comments

Andrew Breitbart famously said that politics was downstream from pop culture.  Andrew’s ability to engage any audience that generally didn’t care about politics, while displaying the Machiavellian manipulators in a way that was brutally effective, made him an enemy to those who avoid sunlight.

What we are seeing amid college football games, and recently any venue where a large audience is assembling, is really quite remarkable.  The cultural shift within the modern political sphere was triggered by Donald Trump; his election was the biggest middle finger to the elites, and ultimately the scale of his support amid a global population that was disenfranchised is why they needed to eliminate him.

The leftist Marxist’s have power.  However, their unquenchable lust for power, specifically showcased in their COVID-19 reaction, has put them in a place where they are in power but losing the cultural argument.

Free people can only tolerate and internalize so much frustration before it starts to come out. Specifically, because frustration is now palpable anger, the sense that screams freedom has become snarky, raw, unapologetic and now often vulgar.

Yeah, it’s a weird thing to find alignment with vulgarity, but when your life and liberty is on the line… well, you fight like the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s ark – and you appreciate anyone that stands beside you.

Russia and China Likely to Introduce U.N. Security Council Resolution Condemning Australia for Human Rights Violations


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 2, 2021 | Sundance | 193 Comments

The headline might seem a little odd; but, then again, isn’t everything upside down as we walk through Alice’s COVID-19 looking glass.

Factually, Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping and the Mullahs in Iran could not purposefully shift the global image of western democracy in the way the leaders of many nations have done all by themselves.  However, as Russian state television provides their viewers with actual scenes on the ground in Australia, there’s a disconcerting irony that starts to become even more worrisome.

Imagine you are a terrorist member of the Taliban, ISIS, AQAP, Hezbollah, the PLO, or executing genocide on behalf of the Lord’s Resistance Army in Uganda.  Or perhaps you lead a Marxist government like Cuba or Venezuela.  Is there anything more valuable than being able to transmit these kind of images as propaganda toward those you victimize?

At least there used to be a difference between brutal dictatorships and western democracies.   Now, however, the world watches as those western nations accept this:

It’s not a surprise to see China, Russia and Iran allowing their citizens to see what is happening in Australia.  If you were a citizen in Taiwan, could China create a more impactful message to manipulate you toward a psyche of resignation?   Think about it….

In this semi-coherent 90 second soundbite below, the content of which flies over the head of the provider, Joe Biden is telling the media about his conversations with Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin.  Biden says that both Xi and Putin are “autocrats” who dictate to the citizens of their nations, and in conversation with them – those leaders have questioned the viability of ‘western democracy‘ in an era where polarization of the electorate is so extreme.

Biden is calling Xi and Putin “autocrats” and trying to defend “western democracy”…. ok, you with me? Now, WATCH:

These actual statements are being muttered by the same guy who just 36 hours earlier told the entire American population that he “has lost patience” with half the nation, and as an outcome, is going to FORCE a mandatory injection (COVID “vaccine”) into the arms of every citizen who wants to work in the United States.

Biden is literally decrying “autocratic governance” today, while being the biggest autocratic executive this nation has ever seen.

Looking carefully at the captured off-the-cuff presser, Joe Biden is not being intellectually dishonest.  In that video segment with the media, he really believes Xi and Putin are autocrats and views himself as a representative of democracy.  He believes that to be true, because he is cognitively disconnected from what just took place 36 hours earlier.  This is evidence that the totalitarian mandate announced from the office of the president was not his policy.

This is like Joe Biden saying, “You will never see me getting out of a red limousine, because all of the world’s most dangerous dictators ride around in red limousines“.  And no one saying, “Mr. President, please sir, turn around – look at your vehicle – you just got out of a red limousine” – and then watch his face as he sees the outside of the car for the first time.

I would prefer that Joe Biden be blindingly hypocritical, and I would prefer to be able to point out his hypocrisy… but this is not that.

This is far more serious and far more dangerous.

Pelosi Lied to Her Own Caucus, Democrat Rep Josh Gottheimer Just Received The Bart Stupak Treatment


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 2, 2021 | Sundance | 129 Comments

At 1:00am on August 25th, Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats came to an agreement on a massive spending proposal.  The Senate previously passed a $1.5 trillion “infrastructure” bill, and a group of 9 House moderates -led by Josh Gottheimer- wanted to see it pass.  However, the far-left progressive caucus wanted their $3.5 trillion spending package which includes Green New Deal spending passed as part of the total budget agenda.

Representative Gottheimer’s group did not concur with the House $3.5 trillion spending proposal and saw no-way for it to pass the Senate.

An internal deal was struck amid the Democrats for Gottheimer’s coalition to agree to advance a rules change with two conditions on that August 25th late night discussion {GO DEEP}:

(1) Pelosi would have to promise to bring the $1.5 infrastructure bill to a vote on September 27th; and (2) Any larger GND/”Human Infrastructure” bill  ($3.5 spending package) would need to be structured to pass the Senate.

Again, back on August 25th, the ‘moderate’ Marxists (for lack of a better term) could see that AOC’s progressive caucus spending bill was unlikely to pass the Senate in its current form.   To get the Gottheimer group on board, House Speaker Pelosi agreed to the two conditions, as negotiated.  To appease the AOC nuts, everyone agreed to tie both the $1.5 trillion infrastructure and the $3.5 trillion spending boondoggle together.

Fast forward through the next four weeks. The Senate struggled to come to any agreement as Senator Manchin (WV) and Senator Sinema (AZ), along with others, balked at the insufferable nature of the $3.5 trillion blueprint that would remake the entire U.S. economy and end up with a massive $5+ trillion deficit.    Eventually both Manchin and Sinema tapped-out, there would be no way to compromise with the far-left moonbat caucus who were dug in.

Because the second point in Gottheimer’s deal (House bill must be able to pass the Senate) was not met, the entire process came unraveled.   Suddenly, Pelosi finds herself having to renege on the promise to bring the $1.5 trillion infrastructure bill to a vote on September 27th.  As the deadline passed, Pelosi tried to save face -en process- by saying the vote would be likely on Friday October 1st.

With public support for the office collapsing at an astounding rate, Joe Biden attempted to insert himself and his weak-sauce leverage at the last minute.  It didn’t help.   The $3.5 trillion spending priority quickly turned into a dead fish, rotting in blueprint outline form without ever making it to ‘reconciliation’ legislative language.

As a consequence, Pelosi’s original agreement with Josh Gottheimer (NJ) leaves him in the same position as Bart Stupak in 2010.

In the aftermath of Nancy Pelosi’s ObamaCare lies, former Representative Bart Stupak (Michigan) and the entire 19 member Blue-Dog caucus were wiped out in the 2010 mid-term election.  Democrats actually lost a total of 63 seats in the U.S. House (biggest crushing defeat since 1938) and lost 6 seats in the Senate during that 2010 mid-term.

The August 25th promise to bring the $1.5 trillion infrastructure bill to the House floor on September 27th was a lie.  Democrats are by nature totalitarian dictators, and just like Bart Stupak, Josh Gottheimer was threatened by Pelosi and House leadership to go along and get his group to vote in support of Pelosi’s massive scheme.

Josh Gottheimer, and the 9 members of the ‘moderate Marxist’ coalition, held up their end of the agreement and supported Pelosi with the two reasonable terms in place.  However, Gottheimer and his group are now left to recognize just how extreme and dangerous the AOC-wing has become.

The Speaker of the House lied to Gottheimer in an effort to manipulate his support.   This is the zero-sum strategy Democrats always deploy.   Pelosi never had any intention of living up to her end of the bargain unless her larger objectives were met.   Democrats are devious and they don’t have boundaries in their fight.  The ‘ends‘ justify any ‘means‘.

Democrats must be taken out of power; they are dangerous….  and, based on increased public sunlight, the current polling indicates an awakened nation is noticing.

In the interim, Pelosi is deploying her familiar UniParty tactic.   She is baiting the Republican and opposition to attack the Democrats for their lack of cohesiveness.   Pelosi wants the nastiest, snarkiest, most hate-filled attacks possible.  Then she will use the attacks against Democrats to circle the wagons and deploy her demand, a guilt and shaming move, to save-face for the entire Democrat political apparatus.

Pelosi’s strategy usually works….  But will it work this time?
