When Totalitarians Gather

From the gathering of bastards at Davos, the latest little bit of mischief comes from Oily Little Shit Tony Blair:

“I think there is a huge impetus for a national digital infrastructure, digitisation in healthcare is one of the great game changers, we should be helping countries develop a national digital infrastructure, which they will need with these new vaccines.”

Impetus among statist motherfuckers like Blair, that is.  And from his replacement Commie Bastard in Britishland:

The leader of the opposition Labour Party and the odds-on favourite to become the next prime minister of the United Kingdom, Sir Keir Starmer, said that he prefers Davos over Westminster.
“It’s closed and we are not having meaning… once you get out of Westminster, whether it’s Davos or anywhere else, you actually engage with people that you can see working with in the future. Westminster is just a tribal, shouting place.”

Of course, it’s far easier to enact oppression when there’s no “shouted opposition” — just ask Adolf Hitler, whose favorite political tool was the Enabling Act of 1933.

And you think that the WEF attendees aren’t just drooling for similar legislation in their own countries, you’re deluding yourself.

Why are these fascist bastards still alive?  Asking for a friend.

Machinations

Looks like the Socialists are starting the process of ditching Biden, via the whole “illegal classified documents route” (as opposed to just handing it over to the Clintons for an accident / suicide):

Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) said Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union that President Joe Biden bore “ultimate responsibility” for the classified material found at his home and office.
“Let’s be honest about it — when that information is found. It diminishes the stature of any person in possession of them. It’s not supposed to happen. Whether it was the fault of a staffer or an attorney, it makes no difference. The elected official bears ultimate responsibility.”

Yeah;  slime him, have his disciples quit on him, leave him isolated, start the process of anointing his successor (TBD, but most likely a sitting Democrat Governor).

Textbook political assassination.

Captain Obvious Comes To Town

From John Lott’s guys:

Murders occur overwhelmingly in dense urban areas, many with tough anti-gun restrictions, and far less in suburban and rural areas where firearm ownership is more common, according to a national study of killings.
“This research shows that murders in the U.S. are highly concentrated in tiny areas in the U.S. and that they are becoming even more concentrated in recent years,” said the report from John R. Lott’s Crime Prevention Research Center.

You don’t say.  Next thing you’ll be hearing is that the socio-demographics of these concentrated areas are poor, overwhelmingly Black, and that the guns used to commit the murders have been stolen.

Nah, couldn’t be.  Ask any big-city mayor.

The key to all of this is climate change / racism / white supremacy / thuggish police / all the above.

Except that we all know the truth.

Quote Of The Day

From the always-wrong Paul Erlich:

“I and the vast majority of my colleagues think we’ve had it; that the next few decades will be the end of the kind of civilization we’re used to.”

On this occasion, he’s actually correct — but only if we let the Commies (WEF, Democrats, George Soros etc.) run things.

As for all his quasi-scientific collectivist (“vast majority”) statements and apocalyptic warnings, they’re

…as always.

Got ‘Em

Two men were arrested for allegedly attacking four power substations in Washington state on Christmas Day as part of a plan to shut down electricity and to steal from an unnamed local business.

Matthew Greenwood, 32, and Jeremy Crahan, 40, were charged on Tuesday with conspiracy to damage energy facilities. Greenwood was also charged with possession of unregistered firearms.

Can’t wait to see who these little shits really are, and which local business they wanted to rob.

I have to say that I feel somewhat relieved that they appear to be just ordinary criminals, as opposed to radical eco-terrorists, Muzzies or two of those millions of White supremacists the Gummint is always warning us about.

Early days yet, though, so I’m not making any bets.
