Thoughts and Observations since the election
I’ve been sitting on the sidelines for the last few weeks since the election, watching the wave that was little more than a swell, but still enough to get the House back and stop much of this ridiculous spending. We all have our opinions on why the wave didn’t happen. I pin it on two major things: First, The Dobbs decision and the heavy marketing by the left about it, and second, to Trump teasing an announcement the night before. Yes – I think he needs to stay out of it. And if I sound too “right-favoring” as you read on, I’m actually not. But I have a strong opinion about corruption that is ignored.
I was again appalled to see how Coloradoans viewed scores of ads about how GOP candidates were totally against abortion. Five minutes online would have shown any viewer that those ads were patently false – those views were heavily distorted, wording in interviews clipped (correct snippets were immediately available online), in some cases eight-year-old policies which were long since revisited and changed, etc., were represented as “current positions”. But when you have millions of dollars from large PACs (e.g., Soros plowed tons of money via PACs into Colorado this cycle, buying up over two-thirds of available ad time), all they need to do is buy up enough airtime to win the brainwashing game. My opinion: Coloradoans were played. Don’t take my word for it – actually look things up before you vote. I did.
But what’s happened since the election? Well, let’s see what “strategery” has been saved up for us:
- Layoffs: Over 41,000 layoffs announced starting the day AFTER the election by big tech, like Meta. Those mostly have severances, so they won’t appear on job reports for another 60-90 days. And now we have another 100,000+ layoff warming up in the wings, across industries.
- A possible rail strike – the one Biden took a victory lap on in September for being “resolved”.
- The Strategic Petroleum Reserves have been bled down quickly by Biden to offset prices just long enough to get through the election. Didn’t keep track of that, huh? Well, let me help: He took office at 638 million barrels in the SPR. Today he has sold off almost 40% of it (a massive chunk to overseas interests including China). 75% of that sell-off has been just in the last 10 months (election season). We are passing below 392 million barrels as of a week ago, so you know.
*Fun fact: The SPR is supposed to be used to “reduce the impact of supply disruptions and to carry out US obligations under the International energy program”. I could drone on for days about the leases that are worthless and the refinery permitting that is being slow-boated by his admin for two years, that are all causing those supply disruptions. But you should go look that up, too. Of particular interest is the energy industry statements of fact of what they are facing under his admin’s attacks.
- Over fourteen DOJ and FBI agent whistleblowers have now come forward, to GOP elected officials only (so they are protected), talking about the Washington Field Office of the FBI have purposely weaponized the office and its agents and investigations and deliberately slowed or killed investigations that would possibly harm dem leaders. Go look up Tim Thibault – or better yet, since he resigned before being fired under pressure, take a look at https://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/remarks/grassley-thibault-resignation-and-media-misreporting
- Over one hundred and fifty. Yup, 150. That’s how many SARs have been actually filed with the Federal Government Financial Crimes Enforcement by major US banks (Wells Fargo, Bank of America, and several others) about possible illegal activity and money laundering within the Biden “dynasty” – Joe, Hunter, and Jim. But here’s where it gets interesting: When Biden took office, he changed the rules so congress could no longer receive those SAR reports from the banks. Prior to that, banks could provide that right to congress, even bypassing the DOJ. But Biden changed/blocked all of that as soon as he came in. Bet you didn’t know that, huh? And yes, there was a controversy in 2019 about Deutsche Bank reviewing a possible SAR filing on Jared Kushner, then deciding it was unwarranted. Dem senators pounced on the bank, but the decision held. It was a single set of filings related to a set of real estate transactions with Kushner and Russians, in Russia. That was it.
But Joe’s activities? He blocked them from being exposed. Hopefully until this January, 2023.
Jeffrey Epstein. Bernie Madoff. Sam Bankman-Fried (FTX founder). All huge dem donors, and all highly corrupt. Two are dead. Sam gave over $36M to dem campaigns in the last 3 years – $10M of that to Biden, and a pile to Ro Khanna (D-CA) as well. Now we are learning that money was probably taken directly from client account balances, as this was also similar to a (crypto) Ponzi scheme. George Soros – not accused of any major crimes, to be clear – funneled over $128M to dem campaigns up and down ballots. I give you dozens of District Attorneys elected across the US that are either not prosecuting or under-prosecuting crimes. Colorado (Denver especially) is no stranger to his money.
Corruption exists in a lot of places – but one group in Washington, backed by a lot of power and influence, are very probably the biggest abusers. It’s sad so many of us would rather ignore it and say, “well, at least it’s not Trump”. But again – pay zero attention to what I just wrote. Go … research … it … yourself.
