THE ULTIMATE SUMMATION, BY GRUMPY GEEZER

DOWNFALL!
Bunker Boy starts his run for the Big House


By Grumpy Geezer (Nov. 17, 2020)


No grace, no dignity, no humility, no magnanimity, no class, no morals, no empathy, no soul.

He has no friends, not even a dog.

His wife can’t bear his touch, his daughter can’t avoid it.

Devoid of humour he doesn’t make jokes, he doesn’t laugh. Not ever. An occasional dismal rictus, a necrotic gash in his ochre-lacquered face-bladder signifies nothing more than his satisfaction in transacting another con.

He’s a loathsome coagulation of every human failing with no compensating virtues.

A craven coward.

A sociopath.

A serial rapist.

A racist.

A quisling.

An opportunistic grifter.

An inveterate cheat.

A deceitful toad.

A chronic liar.

A shameless braggart.

An ignoramus who lacks curiosity. He doesn’t read, he doesn’t care.

Trump is a ridiculous, combed-over cartoon villain, a deranged clown with a face sprayed the colour of hang-over piss and toilet paper stuck to his shoe whose wits are defeated by an open umbrella. Rake the forests, nuke the hurricanes, inject the bleach, waterbomb Notre Dame cathedral, trade Greenland for Puerto Rico. Trump’s pompous idiocies are exceeded only by his appalling ignorance.

Crediting the British with the foresight to build airstrips in the war of independence 110 years before the Wright Brothers first took flight, revealing the hitherto unknown Himalayan countries of Nipple and Button, accusing Baltic leaders of starting Balkans wars! This clueless buffoon brags that he was able to keep the crayon inside the lines on his dementia test. Accusing Trump of a lack of self-awareness is like accusing Myra Hindley of poor child care standards.

TRAITOR SAYS WHAT?


Guilty-as-Hell traitor Michael Flynn, who just got a pardon from the Trump, is now calling for a SUSPENSION OF THE CONSTITUTION and MARTIAL LAW because of (nonexistent) election fraud. And this is just the tiniest portion of the absolute insanity that the Far Right have unleashed since their best efforts to steal yet another election out from under the Democrats failed less than a month ago. 

Of course, nobody in the GOP seems to have an issue with any of this. What in the name of highfalutin' HELL is going on with these Republicans?! They are pretty obviously terrified of something being exposed starting January 20th, and based on their behavior, it must be huge, and it must be REALLY fucking bad. 

Any of y'all got any guesses?

SENATOR WHITEHOUSE (D-RI) TRACKS FASCIST DARK MONEY TRAIL TO THE SUPREME COURT

...and what a magnificent job he does of it, too. 

Fully aware that he has a better chance of getting a public blowjob out of Amy Coney Barrett than he does of getting her to spill even 10cc of truth, he ignores her altogether during his time at bat, choosing instead to educate the American public on the specifics of the the dark money trail leading to the coterie of fascist activist billionaires and the organizations they have created and funded in order to, for all intents and purposes, enact a full-blown takeover of the nation's highest, most powerful, Court of Last Resort.

Furthermore, he explains exactly why and how the Republican party's credibility is dying in that room. No exaggeration, no joke. Watch the video, and share it with all your friends.

KEITH OLBERMANN IS BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER!

In this, his fourth video report since his much-appreciated surprise return to the New Fascist International(e) beat, Keith takes on Republican efforts at packing the Supreme Court with dangerous young Far Right activist lunatics. I strongly urge you all to subscribe to Keith's new Youtube channel, and to also go back and watch his first three videos. They're all excellent, information-rich slabs of justifiably outraged polemic.


 If you're still on the fence about whether or not you're ready to pick up the Olbermann habit, allow me to inform you that this particular edition has some hilariously ironic news about the winner of this year's Nobel Peace Prize, which was announced last week, and which didn't really make big waves in the news cycle at the time. Obviously, it wasn't Trump. It would have been big news if he'd won. No, the winner this year is an altogether more modest organization called the World Food Program. 

The long-time board leader of the US branch of this charity?

Hunter Biden.

PAY ATTENTION, AMERICA... IT'S HAPPENING NOW


U.S. Navy veteran Chris David was so disturbed by the images of federal agents attacking unarmed protesters that he decided to visit the protests himself. But he soon became a victim of one of those brutal attacks. Here is an MSNBC interview with Mr David.

AN ONGOING TALLY OF RECENT AMERICAN POLICE BRUTALITY

Thank you, Jesse Dollemore, for doing the legwork in cataloging so many of these ridiculous official abuses of power in a single, easy to reference video (with more forthcoming, sadly).

PLANET OF THE HUMANS ~ A REBUTTAL


Turns out the Michael Moore-produced documentary Planet of the Humans is deeply, seriously flawed... almost to the point where one wonders if the filmmakers involved were behaving in good or bad faith.

Seeing as, looking a couple blog posts down, you can see that I was originally pretty gung-ho about the flick--and there's no denying its effectiveness as polemic, particularly with people who, like me, aren't well versed in all the latest matters ecological--I figured I owed it anyone who might have watched it on my suggestion to post a level-headed, fact-based, good faith rebuttal. 

So here's one:


Here's another one, that gets even deeper into the technological and scientific issues:


By the way, while researching a number of rebuttal articles and videos, I also went back and re-watched Planet of the Humans, and I have to say, the second time around, I caught what felt to me like a number of anti-human, even eliminationist rhetorical tropes sneaking into the text, almost as if the filmmakers were angry at anyone working towards making less damaging forms of energy available to the masses because it pushes their preferred (but of course only implied) solution to the problem--an enforced end to global consumer culture, perhaps followed by some kind of mass, rapid depopulation effort--farther down the field. After all, the film begins with the following question: 
"Have you ever wondered what would happen if a single species took over an entire planet? Maybe they're cute. Maybe they're clever, but lack a certain, shall we say, self restraint? What if they go to far? What if they go way, way, way, way, way too far? How would they know when it's their time to go?"
No direct answer is ever given. After viewing the film in toto, however, the implications are obvious.

THE TRUMP REGIME'S ONGOING CRIME SPREE


Make no mistake about what happened with William Barr's Justice Department dropping charges against the self-confessed criminal conspirator Michael Flynn this week... this was two things. First, it was a de facto Presidential pardon, only without the potential damage to Trump's re-election bid that having him directly pardon Flynn would have likely sparked. Second, it was the most recent development in the New Fascist International(e)'s ongoing Russiagate conspiracy (acting as both cover for past related criminal activity and laying the groundwork for future criminal acts and cover-ups). Also, it's just plain fucking disgusting.


Here's some pretty good analysis of why this latest move by Barr's now hopelessly tainted DOJ is an example of its breathtaking dishonesty, its institutional hypocrisy (if everyone was given the same consideration as the DOJ intends on giving Flynn re: the "relevance" of his FBI questioning, America's jails and prisons would be empty), its flagrant abuse of power, and its abject mockery of the rule of law:


These are dark days for more reasons than a mere virus, folks. Shit is happening under cover of sickness that is absolutely disgusting, and far more damaging to the body politic than Covid-19 could ever hope to be.

EXCELLENT DOCUMENTARY ON THE SPANISH FLU OF 1918


The Spanish Flu of 1918 was so much worse than what we're going through now, in so many different ways, that it's almost enough to make one ashamed of the extremes to which we're all going to avoid being exposed to Covid-19. Note that I say ALMOST! Because I fully understand why we're self-isolating and shutting down mass public events and all that... it's a necessary sacrifice to help (and I loathe to use these freshly coined neologisms, but) "flatten the curve", so that we spread out the number of people who ultimately come down with Covid-19 over a significant enough span of time that the hospitals will be able to give the best possible care to the maximum number of people who show up presenting with symptoms and needing placement in an Intensive Care Unit. But WOW, man, was that Spanish Flu ever one ugly son-of-a-bitch disease. We're talking a full-on medieval shit-show. So anyway... Enjoy the movie!

BOB DYLAN PRESENTS PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED TRACK "MURDER MOST FOUL"


Some learned friends of mine, bigger Dylan fans than I, are saying this is Dylan's epitaph for America. Not sure I'm feeling that, exactly... but it sure is something.

SO I GUESS IT'S A FIRM "NO" ON THAT PARDON, THEN?

ASSANGE DROPS NUCLEAR BOMBSHELL

Per RawStory (and countless others):
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange claims President Donald Trump dangled a pardon through a Republican lawmaker if he agreed to cover up Russia’s involvement in 2016 election hacking. 
Assange’s lawyer Edward Fitzgerald told a London court Wednesday that former Rep. Dana Rohrabacher had passed along the offer in exchange for testimony that Russia had nothing to do with DNC leaks — and the allegation shocked legal experts and other social media users.
The expected, Trump-style "I barely even know the guy" non-denial denial popped up less than 24 hours after the story of his criminal perfidy first broke. 

Watch where this story goes, how it builds and breaks, because I have a feeling it's going to be one of those predictive stories that foretells how the rest of the dominoes will fall, or whether they will fall at all.

NYT DOC EXPLORES NEW FASCIST INTERNATIONAL(E) DISINFO OPS

First up, meet the KGB spies who invented "Fake News" (then referred to as "Active Measures") during the final decade of the Soviet Union.


Follow that up with a look at the current state of the New Fascist International(e)'s ongoing multi-pronged worldwide War On Truth.


Now it's time to learn about "Operation Infektion", which explores how Russia came to perfect the art of asymmetrical information warfare, and explores some of the methadologies and philosophies in play.


And, finally, there's this segment on the Seven Commandments of Fake News.


This video series, even though it comes from the mother of all mainstream sources, the New York Times,  offers up significant, high quality food for thought and worthwhile information for the few remaining non-co-opted, serious-minded conspiracy researchers and theoreticians out there who continue to fight the good fight, and who try to be honest with their readers, their co-researchers, and most importantly, with themselves.

It isn't easy these days. In fact, the information contained in the four videos above goes a long way towards explaining exactly why it isn't easy these days, what with the so-called "alternative media" landscape being so heavily targeted for co-option, manipulation and takeover by actual criminal, behind-the-scenes power-brokers who have managed to convince the wooliest sheeple on the Animal Farm that they're the only ones who know what's really going on, because instead of believing everything they see on CNN, the Washington Post or the New York Times, they believe everything they hear on InfoWars.com, or from Lou Dobbs, or from whatever full-blown fascist talking head it is that they get their daily supply of talking points.

Anyway, if you're one of the hundred or so people out there still bothering to check out my blog for some reason, please watch these videos and help to spread the word about them. They're quite good.

SENATE VOTES TO ALLOW IMPEACHED PRESIDENT* TRUMP TO SERVE OUT TERM


You know what today's Senate "acquittal" of Donald Trump most reminds me of? The concept of jury nullification as it was practiced in the Deep South during Jim Crow, where juries would refuse to convict White people for crimes committed against Black people, no matter how awful the crime, or how obvious the guilt. 

That, my friends, is what the Republicans just did. Make no mistake. Today, the one-time Party of Lincoln stand exposed as the moral equivalent of, and the heirs apparent to, history's weakest, most pathetic ghosts.
