In the Name of The Father, and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit, Amen.
Countrymen,
ORBIS NON SUFFICIT

Take Two on this subject is here.
Blindingly fast, spinning, leaping, kicking, throwing, glaring, smiling, … the heat of the dance melts glaciers and ice cracks under its pulverizing steps.

With luck, soon no more of this nonsense
By Scott Wallace, Dayton, Ohio
I understand the Left is not going to stop this. I do understand rounds downrange will, so it really is a testimony to our patience that we allow it. The Left should consider that the next time they call us fascist, because we allow them to be such when we could bring out the arm behind our back and put a stop to it. To all their double standards. Permanently. And quickly.
Instead, we allow them to be bullies and pay for the media and entertainment industries that enable it. Us fascist? Hardly. But I think we are going to be able to test that theory, because quite frankly if we were going to go fascist, the current lawlessness and double standards of the Left, the idiocy of the ideas they both spout and demand no deviation from, ideas which cause people to be less than they could be, idiotic dreams of utopia that only cause misery, would be the trigger — as people realized they either fought, or got ruled. By fools.
As it is, either the DOJ gets involved in this, the same way they stop segregationists from denying people rights, or we need to get the DOJ out of the civil rights business. Either the Federal government protects the rights of the people, or we should not be shocked if the people decide to take care of the matter themselves one day. As to the media — it can go hose itself. It is an enemy of democracy, for it will attempt to allow its preferred faction to do whatever it wants with the minimum of damage. If fascism ever does come to America — and it won’t — well, whether through the Left or the Right, it will be the fault of the idiots of the American media. By enabling it from the Left (which it currently is happy doing), or causing a backlash from others because everybody knew what was going on was wrong and stupid, but the elites would not stop it.

Well, Reich is right that the actors are paramilitaries. Cherie Morrison-Oliver provided relevant details here. Of even more relevance is the support element training, organizing, supplying and directing the kinetic paramilitaries. Reynolds links today to an article at The Daily Beast (!) naming some of those, though I think those named are several orders removed from the financiers. The paramilitaries and their support elements are cannon fodder for the financiers, who probably comprise a list of old favorites, to include domestic and foreign intelligence services.
I think the depth of Reich’s assertion is that he is calling elements in the CIA — which *as an agency* is practiced at violent and non-violent domestic insurrection — patriotic and attributing to them activities characteristic of the CIA’s left-wing, unpatriotic elements — who are usually led by the agency’s political appointees and customarily seen from outside the agency as characteristic of the *agency as a whole.*
In other words, Reich is smearing patriotic elements of the CIA with motivations and activities of the agency’s unpatriotic elements. If in fact that is his doing, it is very clever. It also would parallel a nearly identical phenomenon, but with different principals, from some months ago … and my memory is failing to recall the names in that event.
On Milo Yiannopoulos: He is also a showman, a provocateur, a self-promoter and a garrulous pretty-boy. This is what is known in historical perspective as a flash-in-the-pan.
Alexander the Great Milo is not. He fled the Berkeley venue, which he knew would see trouble, rather than stand his ground, or better, as Breitbart did, move towards the trouble to defeat it.
Milo moves away from contact rather than towards it. Worse, he moves just enough to invite contact then runs away when it materializes. This is what is known in historical perspective as a blustering coward.
Democrats are so accustomed (part two is here) to having the CIA execute for their political needs that when they lose control of the agency they must threaten the agency’s patriotic element against moving on them. Democrats really are a criminal organization.
Executive government by judicial fiat. I think that one goes to the mattresses sooner than later. So, the lawyers create the chaos the haters want. Terrific. How about replacing the current civil service structure with a fresh one?
Not so long ago senior theologians and canon lawyers engaged in behavior like this. One reason for the Reformation, which occasioned halving the population of at least one country (Germany) and nearing that much of others. I expect the same method of purification here now that reason has taken flight from deliberative bodies. Lots of hollow, dry kindling lying about. And Shiva does love Thandava.

This matter is now beyond whatever wisdom or effectiveness is or is not in the original orders. It is simply a test of five things: (1) do we, or do we not, as a people and a people’s government, have the right to control our borders as we see fit (to include closing them completely if we so desire)?; (2) is America to be governed for the benefit of Americans, by Americans, or to be governed so as to install utopic dreams of the Left, as the Left desires them (and that alone)?; (3) does any proposal from the right have to be perfect upon both arrival and execution, or it is mooted by a court, and any from the Left can be as messed up as something is possible to be messed up, and yet cannot be denied or stayed (ObamaCare)?; (4) does having elected representatives matter in America, or merely what the press and DNC and activists/arsonists say?; and (5) can you forever say rights not in the Constitution are in there, inviolable and sacrosanct, and rights actually in there are not anything right-thinking people need to let others exercise?
…..
Well, it already looks like the administration is going to comply with this judge no one has ever heard of, has never voted for. Standard GOP: Stupid enough to charge, stupid enough to retreat.
IANAL, but, it seems to me that the mortal danger from this TRO is its existence, not its content. Its being issued at all feels to me like a headlock on Executive and Legislative authority while a dagger is stuck slowly into their respective necks.
Now a Captain commanding a company in combat, for example, can see his orders restrained in situ by a federal jurist who, upon someone’s representation and his own tastes, believes those orders should be otherwise than they are.
The judge has relieved the Captain from command and declared successors relieved in principle before they can take command. Democrats have created their ultimate chaos. The true Black Bloc has shown itself. And its actions are being treated as … respect-worthy, legal? No, they are violent, far more so than any mere street mob can be.
Why should this TRO be obeyed? It is a species of violence, not of law. It deserves contempt and condemnation and to be ignored, especially because another federal district court has ruled the EO in question legal.

Update 9: Good. Senators Cotton and Perdue working to deflate leftists’ weaponized empathy.
Lefties subvert USA national sovereignty and USA citizens’ lives by asserting, in effect, that the USA Constitution covers every Tom, Dick and Harry on the globe. A very clever case of weaponized empathy. Also, more deeply, a breath-taking claim of global authority for leftists — aka Globalists/Salafists.

Update 12: Principal reason, now, that USA must exit NATO: Eurabia, led by what are now mistakenly called Germany and France.
Follow-on to NATO will be some structure with Russia and the Intermarium to keep Eurabia from heading east. Essentially, swing USA’s European force vector 180 degrees, from east to west.
That will be part of a larger structure, to include India, Mongolia and some Southeast Asian nations, to triangulate or quadrangulate China.
… unless arrogance like von der Leyen’s completely sours Trump on NATO.
May be a good chance of that happening. Germany has been on security welfare provided by USA for how long now? And she presumes to hector her benefactor. Head of NATO did as well last week.
No, NATO is obsolete. It is not 1947, nor yet 1991. von der Leyen is proving the point. I say, “You go, girl!”
Update 13: The notion that refugees and immigrants should be admitted to a sovereign nation without caveat or demurrer is conjured by two essentials of Liberation Theology, itself a successful KGB subversion operation: precarity and what lately is called weaponized empathy (classically: scrupulosity). Both are perversions of Christian doctrine (aka experience) with the end in view of disabling Christian civilization by eliminating citizens’ ability to tell truth from fiction and thereby defend themselves. Moslems, Salafist and Shiite, have taken advantage of the KGB’s success removing from so many Europeans and Americans their ability to discern what is in their interest. Socialists have gone insane from self-induced terror upon learning that more than a few Europeans and Americans retain the ability to think clearly enough to defend themselves. The answer, as always, is hearty laughter.
Update 14: I think these so-called elites are really stupid. Up and down are the reverse of what elites say they are. The elites are the thugs, bottom dwellers, sub-civilized, unrefined boors, lower selves.
The smart ones are those who are tolerant, not ambitious, gentle, kind, fair, careful, loving, studious, who cultivate the happiness of their families, pray without ceasing and accept and savor the circumstances of their life. I think elites have a rendezvous with the confessional, like it or not.
Americans are the smart ones. We have no orders of nobility. We make our way in this breathing world. And a fine way it is.
Ischinger is saying, among other things, that if USA makes bilateral agreements with current EU countries or with Russia without EU concurrence on USA’s side (multilateralism), EU will come fully apart. He is right about that.
And he is also saying that USA going bilateral in Europe and Russia kills NATO and therefore is war on the EU conceived as a unified entity (which it is not). He is right about that, too.
And that is why he and EU mandarins are not reassured by VPOTUS Pence’s language that USA supports NATO and EU. He knows that USA going bilateral in and around Europe ends NATO and EU. And they are right about that, too.
No, looking at it coldly, I’d say the EU/NATO goose is just about home-fried. Better they should prepare to win such war as they feel descending upon them. The actual war descending upon them, did they but know it, is civil war, not inter-nation war. To that fact they are marvelously oblivious.
I just hope the Trump administration does not jump in USA blood and treasure to save the poor dumb bastards from themselves for a third time in a century.
Update 15: Mark Hamilton: You are babbling in ignorance and confusing the issue. Tanks mean nothing. Intent does. Russia has no intent of moving west. Never has except as opportunistically during WWII and through subversion following WWII. But subversion is not armed invasion. Germanics, however, have in recent history moved twice east deep into Russia in armed invasion.
And Trump did not order the ABCT (a pittance force for the land area) to Poland. The Fraud did. A stupid, stupid unzipping of a fly while never meaning to whip out and use the instrument — and everybody knew/knows that. Part of a training exercise portrayed as a bold move. Liars! USA has only three (!) BCTs fit for service due to The Fraud’s hatred of mil.
Moberg, an American patriot, is absolutely correct in each of his points.
Mark Hamilton: “None the less, Russians (in Russia) are knuckle dragging culture – utterly incapable of developing a Democracy or respecting human rights.”
So what? You want to complain that a bear is a bear? Be stupid? Instead, say to the bear, “Hi, Bear, what do we need to do here to ensure you and I do not get hurt? Here is what I would suggest: …… What do you suggest?”
Never hold an interlocutor to a standard you set. You are neither omniscient, omnipotent nor omnipresent, so, you cannot enforce said standard. Acting as if you can is risible. See Putin’s grin ….
