It’s appropriate that the 28th annual meeting of the United Nations Climate Summit is called the “Conference of Parties.” Each year, they have a party destroying the liberty of the American people.

Most Americans remain ignorant that the U.S. delegates are among the cheerleaders clapping for the tyranny of the global domination goals to regiment the whole world with environmental controls.

President Biden immediately reversed the Trump Administration policies that slowed this process down. For at least 28 years, the globalist left has consistently put America at the forefront of promoting audacious controls. Do you realize that this past December, throughout COP28, in Dubai, UAE, the U.S. and Western governments pledged suicidal energy policies? All the communists, socialists, and Islamic nations celebrate how naive American delegates are at this Conference of Parties. This action to make America first will economically destroy us.

This action reminds me of a similar scenario going on in the 1937 Soviet Union. Standing in the crowd after listening to an impassioned speech praising Joe Stalin by his deputy, Alexander Solzhenitsyn stood among the fear and terror written on each man’s face, clapping long and loud for one of history’s most prolific and evil mass murderers. Fake enthusiasm, intimidated souls mimicking one another, fearing not to stop. Eleven dreadful long minutes passed. Finally, the director of the paper factory boldly sat down, and all the rest followed, ending the applause. That night, this man was arrested and, after interrogation, given ten years in prison. Their final warning to him: “Don’t ever be the first to stop applauding.” In today’s America, it is concerning that the Democratic left and RINOs do not fake their enthusiasm for these liberty-destroying policies. They never stop applauding.

It is obvious that the goal of President Biden’s policies is not to put America’s interest first. He signed unconstitutional Executive Orders to destroy the energy independence achieved under President Trump. Alex Newman’s TNA 1/29/24 article points out how our delegation to the COP28 Climate Summit puts America last: “Ironically, those coal-fired plants being built across China are powering the very factories producing the economical and environmentally devastating solar panels and windmills subsidized by struggling Western taxpayers — systems that will end up imposing even higher costs on American consumers.” What Hypocrisy? Communist, socialist, and Islamic regimes make oil deals at the UN Climate Summit to phase out fossil fuels, but America must be first!

The New American asks Senators Lisa Murkowski (R – Alaska) and Tom Carper (D-Del) a similar question, “Why does the U.S. government commit economic suicide to “save the climate” even as the regime ruling Communist China keeps building coal-fired power plants at an unprecedented rate?” Of the few answers given, they: “… simply insisted that Beijing should follow suit after the United States jumps off the cliff into economic oblivion.”

Something is terribly wrong when our government, elected by “we the people,” pledges its loyalties to the UNCOP28 plans without the permission of Congress. The silent majority must wake up and speak out when Congress ignores American interests. Contact state and federal representation — Senators and Representatives – with phone calls, emails, and snail mail — to warn them to stop representing the UN’s Agenda 2130 and COP28 pledges.

Within weeks of the Biden Administration embedding itself in the Oval Office (Like a tick), it announced that the Houthi rebels in Yemen were not, as the Trump administration had declared, terrorists. Except they were.

The Houthi movement, which is officially called Ansarallah (or Ansar Allah, for “supporters of God”), brags a slogan which reads: “God is great, death to the U.S., death to Israel, curse the Jews, and victory for Islam.” …

The obvious presumption was that the Bidenistas were tossing Iran’s Proxy and, therefore, Iran a bone, claiming it was about ensuring humanitarian relief. And why not? The Bidenistas hate America and Israel, so it was a better fit than OJ’s glove.

In exchange, the Houthis continued to recruit child soldiers, bomb airports, and kill civilians – they even raided the US Embassy in Yemen before the year was out.

Not much had changed in the intervening years until someone decided to report on the years of “almost peaceful protesting” as if it were something new. Forever wars, distraction from Team Biden failures during a presidential election year, corn pop? Any guess is as good as the next, but the US started bombing Yemen as a matter of policy (so much for the humanitarian aid), and Biden Inc. has had a change of heart on the Houthi. They are to  be rebranded as a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist.”

This decision comes after the group has repeatedly attacked United States interests, including commercial ships in the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea. National Security Official Jake Sullivan stated that this move is aimed at impeding terrorist funding to the Houthis.

This fits (hand-and-glove?) with the Deep State theatrical presentation: we’re mad at Iran for something that reeks of some sort of John Kerry visiting the Mullah co-production stage play. Democrats love Iran and have longed for a shift in regional power away from Saudi Arabia. The distraction is an excuse to increase inflation by throwing billions at weapons makers (who love anyone that gives them money), while the depopulation left gets something the like. Wars kill a lot of people. Sure, they release a lot of carbon into the atmosphere, but someone did some math in case anyone asks.

The number of people killed offsets the CO2 released to kill them or something like that.

War is now a planetary good, so we should expect more of it, but you have to have an antagonist. In Ukraine it’s Russia, in Israel it’s both sides, and in Yemen it is now the Houthi, who Iran may have given up for the sake or perception. Trump winning is bad for Iran and the Democrats, so what’s a few martyrs? They can also find more.

And so another week begins.

Take heart – there will be both a Wednesday and Friday Edition.  Last week’s Friday Edition.

Remember, ridicule and mockery are effective weapons:

1. Ridicule cannot easily be fought
2. Ridicule makes the enemy angry, and angry people make mistakes
3. For those in the “squishy middle” a Thought Splinter (and Part II and Part III and Part IV) can often be hidden inside humor.

Now, let the mockery and mayhem begin.

Mail-In Ballot Fraud Study Finds Trump ‘Almost Certainly’ Won In 2020 | ZeroHedge

A new study has shown massive fraud in the 2020 mail-in ballots (up to 25%) and that means that yes, Trump DID win 2020, and was cheated out of the election by fraud.  The question is this:  Who will actually bring this to bear LEGALLY, and hold the fraudsters (and everyone who covered it up) accountable?  Added: What judge has the stones knowing the kind of firestorm they’d be stepping into?

How sweet is it that Joe Biden’s political career was torpedoed by the man he has used to destroy anyone who got in the way of the Democrat destruction of America? Special Counsel Robert Hur may have published the scathing report on Joe Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, but it was Biden’s buddy, Attorney General Merrick Garland, who signed off on and delivered the damning document to Congress and the world.

Some may say Garland never read the report, but what he signed was worse than if Biden was tried and found guilty of espionage. Garland did his best impersonation of Judas and presented the report that proved to the world that Joe Biden is not mentally competent. Joe Biden, President and leader of the free world, is an old man who lacks the memory recall to defend himself, let alone be within ten feet of the nuclear football.

The White House has been in damage control since the release of the report on Thursday afternoon. The report details why Biden will not be charged with illegal possession of classified documents because no jury would ever find an old, feeble, mentally incompetent Joe Biden guilty of the charges. Karine Jeanne-Pierre, Ian Sams, and the liberal mainstream media did their best to spin and distort the Special Counsel report but failed.

The media defended Biden and crucified Hur, but the evidence is insurmountable. The Dems can tell us till they are blue in the face that Biden is of sound mind, but Thursday’s prime-time press conference was all America needed to see. After Biden’s hapless effort to fend off the newly stoked media, it was evident that Joe Biden was done. Stick a fork in him and start planning his Presidential library. Ensure plenty of room for the Corvette, the broken lamp, and the dilapidated boxes of classified documents from the family garage.

The free-for-all starts on Monday. Biden and Doctor Jill will not quit, but Michelle Obama, Gavin Newsom, and Kamala Harris will be fighting for the top slot on the 2024 Democrat ballot. There are others like Hochul (NY) and Whitmer (MI) who think they have what it takes, but they need to look in the mirror and realize they are not able to manage a state, let alone 50 states and the endless caravan of humanity crossing the Rio Grande.

It is getting late in the game for a passing of the baton. Super Tuesday is coming quickly, as is the convention. The convention in Chicago may resemble a WWE battle rather than a party convention. Newsom will probably emerge as the front-runner. After all, he has been running since 2023. Obama is the only one who can bring them all together, but after twelve years of Obama’s Presidency, do we really want four more with Michelle as the figurehead? With no political experience and an ego that will match any narcissist, the country cannot handle a Michelle Obama Presidency. Let’s face it. The Democrats are screwed, but they did it to themselves when they put Biden in the White House.

David S (reformatted) [GOP Voters are Not Very Good at Voting]
I think the REAL problem stems from the GOP NOT having REAL PRINCIPLES that they both understand AND stick to. Say what you want about libertarian ideals, but they are consistent.

When I ran for office, I may not have known everything about every subject, but when asked about something I didn’t fully know, my response was always in favor of the individual over the collective, getting rid of the government role, increasing freedom, liberty, choice, and personal responsibility.

Sadly, I think that too many in the GOP suffer from the same “internal schizophrenia” (as I call it) that plagues those in the democrat party. They believe in economic freedom but can’t allow personal freedom (or visa versa for the democrats). They NEVER seem to understand that there is ONLY FREEDOM, not two different kinds that can be separated or treated separately.

If you have NO foundation upon which to build your platform or principles, you can easily be led astray by polls, hollow arguments, or simply raw cash.

 

The absence of well-rooted principles continues to be a problem, as does the speed with which those claiming to have them depart from that – at all levels of government.

Note 1: Several runners-up are worthy of additional attention, so I hope to find time to feature them in posts later this week.
