Assortment

 Haw! Mollie Hemingway says that the mainstream media's coverage of the usurper, Biden, on inauguration day was "like watching a Jeffrey Toobin Zoom call" (H/T: the sidebar at Ace of Spades, who continues to solidify his blog's position as Resistance Central). 

Now, how could that be? "After Two Weeks the Identity of the Capitol Policeman Who Shot Unarmed Ashli Babbitt Dead Has Not Yet Been Released". That was a rhetorical question, of course. Btw, the linked article has a video of the actual shooting, so you are forewarned. I join friend and commenter Bucky in demanding Justice For Ashli Bobbitt. And, yes, I am aware that justice may well not be done, but we should still demand it; silence is acquiescence. 

Here's an interesting piece on Jewish resistance during the Holocaust. Be advised, I'm not saying we're looking at the same thing in the United States right now (not yet, anyway). But there is a lot of despair making the rounds among normal Americans, and a lot of people think there's nothing they can do to fight the Democrat/Media police state, or that there's no reason to fight, because we're doomed, anyway. I find this statement from the linked article relevant:

Many ghetto fighters took up arms in the knowledge that the majority of ghetto inhabitants had already been deported to the killing centers; and also in the knowledge that their resistance even now could not save from destruction the remaining Jews who could not fight. But they fought for the sake of Jewish honor and to avenge the slaughter of so many Jews [emphasis - Paco]. 

Sometimes, it's about dying on your feet, rather than living (or dying anyway) on your knees. 

 Lest we forget: Donald Trump had many notable accomplishments. 


Angelo Codevilla: "The United States of America is now a classic oligarchy.

Update  "FICUS Biden" (H/T: Smitty, at The Other McCain, who also has a good title for the usurper: Resident).

  1. The Warsaw Uprising came too late. But at which point ought Europe's Jews have taken up arms? Their prior history had taught them that waves of oppression come and go, and the way to survive was to keep their heads down and ride it out. Things always came back to normal.

    Because, after all, a little pogrom here and there notwithstanding, it wasn't like anybody in Europe actually wanted to exterminate them, right? And that was perfectly true - right up to the point it wasn't.

  2. The US is now a classic oligarchy?
    What were the last 4 years but a classic oligarchy responding to a threat to their power?

    They committed felonies and treason, including military leadership ignoring orders from and lying to the putative civilian commander in chief, all with no repercussions whatsoever.
    The GOP defied both their voters and the POTUS supposedly from their own party all in service to the oligarchs' directives.

    The mask if now off our classic oligarchy is the only difference.
