The regime has a mindset that is two pronged – the deep state/globalists/financial cartel on the one hand and the Progressive zealots on the other. The former are using the latter, but neither of them believe they are wrong and neither will give up; the globalists because they are arrogant masters of the universe and the zealots because of ideology.
It's not as though they thought they had much to fear about us; they must think that we are, in the main, morons. I mean, even we think that. They must think it particularly of Americans, whose general demeanor seems to be less world weary and cynical than the Europeans. And they have reason to. They've just heaped indignity upon indignity for two years straight, overseen a vast transfer of wealth from us to them and the general population have just accepted it. Not only that, but less than 15 years ago, they robbed us again and then bailed themselves out using our money. The Federal Reserve paid out $23 trillion in loans without Congressional approval, spent years trying to ensure the facts were never revealed and, when the whole sorry saga saw the light of day, it made barely a ripple, after all.
Then Snowden and Assange revealed that governments were spying on their citizens, on a massive scale and illegally. The result? One of them is in exile in Russia and the other has been hounded by the US government for over a decade and looks like he will be extradited so that he spend the rest of his days in jail. But, again, we did nothing. So, why should they respect us?
Nonetheless, and despite the fact that the globalists hold all the cards, their judgement is not infallible and their fellow travelers, the progressive left, are not known for their patience. The elites' project, to gain permanent authoritarian control over the Western world (at least) without us noticing, is complicated and must run alongside some prosaic realities and in harness with people who cannot do subtle.
In the States, especially, the timing is tight and things are coming to the boil a little too quickly. Whilst the Progressives will still be in power once the mid-terms have come and gone, there is every chance that they will have lost the ability to make law. In fact, they already have, to a degree. The failure to ram their agenda through Congress, by hook or by crook, is prompting much hissing and stamping of feet. On the other hand, they don't seem particularly concerned by their epic electoral unpopularity. Pelosi, 82 years old, after buying a retirement home in Florida and now facing the prospect of at least two years out of power in the House, has declared that she is going to stay on anyway; perhaps she knows something we don't.
In the meantime, the plan to ensure that they could steal Presidential elections for the foreseeable future while squandering trillions of dollars on 'sustainability' and social justice is stalled and seemingly dead in the water. Not only that, but 'vaccine' mandates are crashing and burning and only 11% of Americans have taken up the kind offer of a booster. You would also think that, sooner or later, enough people will see through the lie and start asking some very hard questions about excess deaths and 'vaccine' injuries. A 40% increase in the mortality rate of working age citizens cannot be blamed on Omicron forever. Even some of the true believers may find that a step too far at some point.
In addition, of course, inflation is running hot, energy of all types is sky-rocketing and the shelves have started to come up empty. Supply chain issues are not going to improve anytime soon, either. It's not so much that these things are happening that's the problem– that is, after all, part of the plan. It's more the fact that not all elements are moving forward in sync. Not only that, but in little known news, Nebraska just became the seventeenth state to pass a resolution calling for what is known as an Article V convention of states which would be:
“limited to proposing amendments to the Constitution of the United States that impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and limit the terms of office for its officials and for members of Congress.”(1)
Apparently, the power to amend the Constitution is enjoyed by the states, as well as the Federales. The same numbers are involved; two thirds are required for a convention (34) and three quarters for an amendment (38). It's never been done before, but that doesn't mean that it won't be. Needless to say, the very last thing that the Progressives want is for the states to circumscribe their power and, while the numbers are not there yet, that sort of thing needs to be nipped in the bud. So, for a variety of reasons, it looks suspiciously like action is going to have to be taken soon.
I appreciate that some of you may think that politics as normal will resume; that the Democrats will reap what they have sown in time-honored fashion. And it's possible that the regime and its backers will chose to take a shellacking at the mid-terms. I don't think so, but they might. It just seems unlikely, given the history and the looming presence of Trump. Additionally, there is always the possibility that the Republicans will continue their internecine warfare and thereby commit political hari-kari in November, but the smart money would bet that they don't.
The Left could not sit still while Trump was in power and the prospect of two more years of impotence, when they are so close, when the 'pandemic' has set the scene, while they have momentum, must be purgatory. They had no option but to snipe from the sidelines and impeach at the drop of a hat when they were in opposition, but they now have the keys to power and I imagine that they'll have to be pried from AOC's lifeless hands, rather than surrendered willingly. Plus, of course, they are already four years late, after yet another bump in the road brought their agenda to a screeching halt in 2016.
I focus on the US because they are the biggest domino. If they fall, the entire West is in the mire and quickly. So what can we expect in 2022. Given that the US is currently the tip of the globalist's spear, the World Economic Forum is a good place to start, especially as they hold a shindig every January, in order that global leaders might get their marching orders for the year ahead. This year, as with the past two years, the general thrust is of interest, but the detail may be subject to sudden change. There is a reason that the WEF is a bellwether; so many of our leaders are alumni of one programme or another. Boris Johnson, Macron, Jacinda Ardern, Trudeau, Putin, Merkel, Gates, Branson and Bezos amongst others. And you're wondering how it all happened in lock-step.
Due to Omicron, the elites didn't commit the same faux-pas as at COP26 and fly to Davos in their private jets and then discuss climate change. They Zoomed everything. Still, they seemed to cover a lot of ground:
“The event will also mark the launch of several Forum initiatives including efforts to accelerate the race to net-zero emissions, ensure the economic opportunity of nature-positive solutions, create cyber resilience, strengthen global value chains, build economies in fragile markets through humanitarian investing, bridge the vaccine manufacturing gap and use data solutions to prepare for the next pandemic.”(2)
Some of that is the usual opaque, corporate blather, which is essentially meaningless. Presumably, 'cyber resilience' is about reliability and resistance to hacking, for instance and the WEF has been softening us up on that score for the past year. They produced a report in November 2020, alerting us to the increasing vulnerability of the global financial system to cyber-attack. It must be true because entities such as the Federal Reserve, The Bank of England, the IMF, JP Morgan and Amazon contributed to it and they are all bywords for integrity.(3)
For the record, I don't doubt that banks and the commercial sector, with their slavish obsession with technology, have made our money more accessible to bad actors. But the WEF doesn't spend time and money on anything that doesn't advance its agenda, so it's worth taking note, especially as one of their recommendations was to promote greater fusion of intelligence services and banks, so that they may better protect the financial infrastructure. What could possibly go wrong with that, other than the advent of social credit scores? Furthermore,
“Their latest prediction of a doomsday event, a cyberattack that stops the current financial system in its tracks and initiates its systemic collapse, if it came to pass, would be the final, necessary step required to bring about the Forum’s desired outcome of a widespread shift to digital currency and increased global governance of the international economy.”(4)
In the early days of this administration there was a spate of ransomware attacks. In fact, there were 48 in the first six months of 2021, affecting everything from oil pipelines to healthcare.(5) This followed on from a bumper year in 2020. Probably just a coincidence. As is the regime's announcement that they wish to bring to bring an end the “haphazard approach” to the regulation of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, as a matter of national security.(6) Nothing to do with the fact that the imposition of their own digital currency on us in the future will be less effective if there are alternatives.
Global value chains are a reference to the practice of manufacturing different parts of a product in different countries and, to nobody's great surprise, the world needs more vaccines. Of the rest, the first initiative (to race towards net zero emissions) is utterly impossible if we continue to use even a small fraction of our current energy consumption. But it's meant to be impossible. It took me a while to work it out and a look at California before I stopped thinking that they were nuts and realised, instead, that the goal is deliberately unattainable. Over the years, as California has transformed itself into a socialist banana republic, various state entities have come up with any number of sustainable energy options, including nuclear, hydro-electric, wind and solar and the environmentalists have fought each and every initiative. There is always a reason why a project despoils something in the environment, whether it be a species of termite or a beautiful view. Nothing is good enough. The whole dynamic behind climate change restrictions is to limit freedom of choice and insufficient energy does tend to restrict activity.
Decisions about infrastructure are the responsibility of governments, but the WEF has come to the realization that private companies are viewed with less suspicion than the state and, in addition, are unburdened by the need to act impartially. In order to leverage that, there will be a concerted effort to open a second front, which we already witnessing with the private sector's enthusiasm for 'vaccine' mandates and the censorship of free speech. The elites don't seem to have realized that the reason for this dichotomy is that the politicians had first dibs on selling the authoritarian product, and thus reaped the whirlwind of distrust, and that CEOs will find the same hostility directed at them in due course. This is already happening. A large poll (36,000 in 28 countries) found that under half the respondents in the US and the UK trusted business to do the right thing about anything.(7) The other half will, hopefully, work it out at some point.
Next we have an emphasis on “zero emissions” and “nature-positive” solutions or, to call it by its true name, stakeholder capitalism. As is the case with 'sustainable energy', it's sold to us as a boon, both morally and practically. The claim is that the shareholder primacy model (the idea that the first priority for a company is to make a profit for itself and its shareholders) has resulted in customers and employees being exploited. So, in a spirit of caring and sharing, these latter groups are also now designated stakeholders in the business. The problem with the concept doesn't come from an incorrect analysis; rapacious businesses have long been known to shaft their own staff and treat customers as walking ATMs. The problem comes from the solution.
According to the Washington Post (as recently as 2019):
“In the... new formulation of corporate purpose, delivering value to customers, investing in employees, dealing fairly and honestly with suppliers, supporting communities and protecting the environment all have equal billing with generating long-term value for shareholders.”(8)
It sounds like a modified form of capitalism, where all parties are treated equally. Aside from the fact that the real world doesn't work that way and that meddling in free markets in this fashion would require considerable bureaucratic oversight, one could half heartedly applaud. But the concept stands or falls by the decision as to who it is that is designated a stakeholder and that's where the WEF wasted little time in revealing their hand. A quoted company has a trifecta of priorities; shareholders, staff and customers. Schwab has his own take on that, updating the Davos Manifesto to state that business must also be stewards of the environment, uphold human rights in their supply chains and pursue sustainable returns that don't sacrifice the future for the present.(9) Quite why the WEF believes it has the right to tell anybody anything is a mystery, but the true intentions behind stakeholder capitalism are becoming a little clearer. There is one more layer of the onion to peel; Schwab's words are relatively benign, but it's how those principles are implemented that reveals all. One more quote, because it's another masterpiece of obfuscation:
“Supporters of the stakeholder capitalism model have identified several benefits of its adoption. By leveraging market-oriented principles like those found in this management model, economies have a better chance of solving deep, systemic problems like inequality, the future of work, and climate change.”(10)
Now we're getting somewhere. What they actually mean is that by forcing companies to do what the WEF and their ilk want (because if they don't they won't have access to finance and nobody will do business with them), the authoritarians can impose their woke agendas and further advance their plan to send the majority of us back to the Stone Age. BlackRock, an investment fund with over $7 trillion under management, is leading the charge and a company's attitude to climate change is their number one question when putting their money to work.(11) It's all part of Building Back Better and there's much more of it on the agenda this year.
It is, nonetheless, my belief that the globalists don't care one iota for the environment. Climate change, as a concept, does not stand up to a moment's scrutiny and they know that. World CO2 emissions have been flat for a decade (12) and global temperature hasn't risen this century.(13) These facts are published by their own propaganda organs and the reason the climate isn't co-operating with the doom mongers is because the science isn't “settled”; it's bogus and always has been. Therefore, the elites are lying and ESG and stakeholder capitalism is about something else.
Lastly, what could they possibly mean by using “data solutions to prepare for the next pandemic.” I think we can probably have an informed guess. I would imagine that 'vaccine' passports and the introduction of biometric data in the form of under the skin chips would feature prominently. And I wonder how soon the next 'pandemic' will appear? They seem to feel it's inevitable, which I suppose it is if they're going to release it from a lab, again.
All things being equal, this is the path the globalists wish to take us down. But, as mentioned, the Democrats have some pressing business to attend to in the meantime. Their strategy contains long term elements that are being implemented as we speak, but which will have little bearing on events in the coming year.
What is becoming known as the Great Replacement is one of the strands. Over the course of the past year, more than 2 million illegal immigrants have been rounded up at the southern border, plus God knows how many who got away. They have been flown from Texas to numerous locations around the country, usually in the dead of night. State and local officials are given no notice, no opportunity to refuse entry. The illegals are comprised of all demographics, all ages.(14) Airport lights are switched off and the flights arrive at three or four in the morning, starting in early Aug 'til end October, at which point reports started to surface in the media.(15)
Not to ignore, of course, 66,000 Afghans who just happened to be on the tarmac at Kabul when it became clear that the Americans were abandoning their ally. And that was the only requirement, to be desperate enough to flood the airport.(16) The plan would then be to amnesty all those non citizens who are already present on US soil and, hey presto, tens of millions of Democrat voters. But it's definitely part of a longer game-plan. If they wanted to provoke a reaction in the here and now, they wouldn't be flying in secret.
There are also plans afoot to require everybody to access their IRS records via facial recognition software (17), for their convenience and security obviously, not so that the regime has an up-to-date picture of every American. Add to that a recent bill (which 80 room temperature IQ Republicans voted for), catchily entitled the “Immunisation Infrastructure Modernisation Act of 2021”, which requires that the states furnish the Feds with information on the vaccination status of all their citizens.(18) There is already a fairly healthy correlation between the less 'vaccinated' states and those with Republican majorities, but it would obviously be handy if each individual refusenik could be identified by name.
Then there are the various attempts to regulate the Second Amendment into impotence, the unequal justice meted out to Lefties and conservatives, activist DAs who refuse to enforce the law and who seek to outlaw cash bail, ensuring that offenders are continually released after arrest and the whole panoply of wokeism that is picking at the seams of American life. But these are all longer term strategies that will not bear fruit within the next year.
In the meantime, there is the effort by the January 6th committee to stop Trump running again (plus the Georgia DA re-investigating an already resolved investigation (19), plus the New York DA trying to manipulate the public into believing the former president guilty of fraud without having to take the trouble to file charges (20)), to talk up the January 6th riot into an insurrection and label any opposition a threat to national security. And any parent who objects to Critical Race Theory being taught in their schools, or to vaccination without parental consent, is a potential domestic terrorist.
The Democrat/Big Media alliance are also keen to speculate on the possibility of an upcoming election coup in 2024 whilst, once again, providing no evidence for this analysis.(21) These several themes are consistent and consistently transparent, but I get the feeling that they don't really care whether they are believed by the people. They still don't believe that the need the consent of a majority; they want to claim 'legitimacy' using the system of committees, tame ex-military sock puppets and the foghorn of the media. They believe that they just need the fig leave of organisational cover. It's not really about convincing anybody new, because Big Media numbers have been tanking for over a year, as are the administration's. They must know that fewer and fewer people are listening to them, but they are pressing on regardless.
They are also taking down the military. What the state has done to them is truly shocking. These numbers come from the Department of Defense database; yet one more example of the regime shooting itself in the foot. Taking the years 2016-2020 as a baseline (and yes, that includes year one of the 'pandemic'), the total incidences of injury figure averages out at 1.7 million a year, every year. 'Vaccines' were mandated in January 2021; by the end of October, the total incidences of injury figure for the year was 22 million. Some specific categories – female infertility, normal average approximately 2,200 yearly, 2021 figure, 11,000. Oesophageal cancer, a pretty niche problem you might think and the usual rate of incidence confirms that; one year 26, the next year 39, but all in the range, except for 2021, when the number was 209.
Lastly, reports of anxiety, which may not seem a particularly serious complaint, unless you happen to be a fighter pilot or a tank commander, when a clear mind would be handy; ordinarily, consistently around 37,000 cases per annum – 2021 number, 931,000. Think about that for a moment; military commanders deliberately incapacitating their own troops. It is inconceivable that the brass doesn't know what they're doing and yet they're still doing it.(22)
The administration also seems to be hell-bent on destroying the economy. One might think that that is what socialists are in existence for, due to their naivety and ideological fixations. But this has a pre-meditated feel to it. The Federal Reserve has vastly over-inflated the money supply, the regime has deliberately placed itself at the mercy of others for their energy needs, supply chains throughout the world are compromised (not aided by the fact that container ships are not being unloaded at American ports), 'vaccine' mandates and excessive benefit payments have decimated the business sector, with millions preferring to warm the couch instead of working and the stock market bubble is on the verge of being pricked; to name just some of the factors that have been maneuvered into position.
Figure 1
But what could be the spark, the event that enables the regime to seize control and shut down normal constitutional life including, perhaps, the postponement of elections. Because if things continue as they are, it is inconceivable that the Democrats will still be effective after November. I think there are four main possibilities.
A financial meltdown, triggered by a stock-market collapse or a ransomware attack.
Yet another pandemic.
A false flag domestic terrorism attack of some magnitude, or a pre-emptive crackdown on 'Far Right extremists'.
A supply chain breakdown of essentials such as food.
There is a fifth possibility. If they actually hold the mid-terms and cheat outrageously, they may succeed in provoking a real insurrection. None of those scenarios feels particularly far-fetched. The dollar is being systematically undermined by the Federal Reserve, the stock market is hugely overvalued, we know that the next 'pandemic' is coming at some point, supply chains woes and empty shelves are already a fact of life and it would be pretty naïve to believe that the intelligence agencies would not stoop to a false flag operation.
And there would have been a sixth possibility, which would be to start a war, (almost certainly with Russia), in the hope that this would distract people from the administration's other tactics, unite the country behind the regime and possibly allow for some kind of lock-down. They have been banging the drum about the Russian 'enemy' since before 2016 except, once more, the majority seems able to see through the lies. In any event, Brandon has almost certainly botched this opportunity with his comical ineptitude, trying to talk up a conflict at the precise moment that Russia and Ukraine were de-escalating.(23)
If a form of martial law is the solution to their woes, the necessary authorizations exist, as does the capacity to deal with 'insurrectionists', real or imagined. The National Defense Authorisation Act, renewed annually and which provides funding for the Department of Defense, this year approved extra funding for the National Guard (for their expected response to catastrophic incidents)(24). This is the same act that Obama weaponized in 2012, adding sections 1021 and 1022, which authorize indefinite military detention, without charge or trial, of any person labelled a “belligerent”. This was allegedly a necessary step in the “War on Terror”, but no exception is made for American citizens:
“These NDAA provisions (which have been re-approved by Congress and signed by President Obama every year since 2012) override habeas corpus―the essence of our justice system. Habeas corpus is the vital legal procedure that prevents the government from detaining you indefinitely without showing just cause. When you challenge your detention by filing a writ of habeas corpus, you must be promptly brought before a judge or into court, where lawful grounds must be shown for your detention or you must be released. Under Section 1021, however, anyone who has committed a “belligerent act,” can be detained indefinitely, without charges or trial, as a “suspected terrorist.”(25)
The curious desire to label any and all opposition a “domestic terrorist” starts to make sense now, doesn't it? Then we have this, from the Secretary of Homeland Security:
“Domestic violent extremism poses the most lethal and persistent terrorism-related threat to our country today. As we work to safeguard our Nation, we must be vigilant in our efforts to identify and combat domestic violent extremism within both the broader community and our own organization.”(26)
It isn't as though there aren't already Executive Orders in existence that can atomize democracy in America in an “emergency”, the declaration of which is entirely within the presidential grip. For instance, EO 13603, yet another Obama era power-grab, made the definition of “national emergency” broader and vaguer and gave the President:
“power over all commodities and products capable of being ingested by human beings and animals; all forms of energy; all forms of civil transportation; all usable water from all sources; health resources; forces labor such as military conscription; and federal officials can issue regulations to prioritize and allocate resources.”(27)
These powers of confiscation apply to private individuals, as well as companies. The wide ranging powers would allow a president to suspend laws, move populations, arrest and detain persons without warrant or trial, suspend the Constitution, seize property, food supplies and transportation systems; you name it, the President could do it. And it's curious, is it not, that it took the ascent of Obama to identify the need for these powers? And curiouser that the insentient man in power now was the VP then.
Of course, there's also the old reliable, the Insurrection Act. An insurrection is quite tightly defined; it's not a mutiny, which applies to open opposition to law within the military. It's not sedition, which is similar to insurrection but less extensive and it's not a rebellion, which is what we tend to think of it as. A rebellion is a revolt or an attempt to overthrow a government. An insurrection, on the other hand, is:
“A rising against civil or political authority; the open and active opposition of a number of persons to the execution of a law in a city or state.”(28)
That is not a particularly high bar to meet, not would it require the execution of the law that was being protested against to be constitutional; it wouldn't be a difficult false flag operation, either. The only fly in the ointment would be that, if the uprising was peaceable, the federal government would technically have no mandate. I wouldn't expect that stipulation to be honored by this regime; they have demonstrated very limited allegiance to the Constitution in other matters and I see no reason why they should suddenly start being sticklers now.
And what of preparations? The National Guard are also subject to 'vaccine' mandates along with the rest of the military, as are at least some metropolitan forces in blue states, so they may not be in the best of shape right now. On the other hand, the federalization of police forces has been ongoing for the past twenty years or so. The federal government has been using tax dollars to militarize local police forces through the device of terrorism grants (via the DHS), with tactical equipment, drones, weaponry and military vehicles.(29) The DHS themselves has purchased 2.2 billion rounds of ammunition, acquired 2,700 armored personnel carriers, thousands of military vehicles and has more than 100,000 armed enforcement agents.(30) They are not the only agency with substantial military resources. Federal courts have also done their bit by standardizing law across states, thus superseding state law and encouraging a federal approach to law enforcement.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), as well as its better known role in disaster management, also has powers with regard to safeguarding the government. It is further responsible for hundreds of camps, scattered across the country; perhaps as many as 800, with the capacity to hold hundreds of thousands of persons. In an entirely unconnected development, in 2016 the CDC awarded itself the right to:
“restrict the freedom of a person entering the U.S. or traveling between states if they believe the person is infected or could become infected with certain kinds of communicable diseases.”(31)
That isn't at all open-ended, is it? And how did the CDC manage this power grab? It did it by the simple expedient of publishing a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on the Federal Register; just like that. Apparently, non elected officials can bypass Congress and create binding law. At least there are some camps where the suspected miscreants can be held.
A lot of effort has gone into acquiring powers that can be activated on the say-so of one man – the President. Does it not seem likely that, having expended the energy, the reward will be sampled? Especially after the experiment of the past two years, whereby the subjugation of the Western world was achieved without a shot being fired. Further, matters do seem to be coming to a head; forces, such as inflation and shortages, have been unleashed and they are not easily recalled. 'Crises' are coming thick and fast.
If it's not the sudden desperate need to resurrect Ukraine's divine right to NATO membership, it's the epidemic of whatever it is (the only thing we can be certain it isn't is Omicron) sweeping China on the eve of the Beijing Olympics which, of course, will still be going ahead regardless. And, all the while, the clock is ticking. If the Democrats can't ballot harvest, ensure their dead electors vote, stuff ballot drop boxes and manipulate voting machines, they will be a lame duck administration in less than a year and without the For The People Act and with a slew of state bills tightening election processes, that's exactly what will happen....if no other circumstance intervenes.
I feel as if I have expressed this sentiment numerous times over the past few months. It all seems too fantastic for words; yet one more conspiracy theory. They may be bad, but surely they wouldn't go that far? Two things to bear in mind; awkward truths are said to start are objects of ridicule, are then acknowledged by virtue of being opposed before finally being accepted as self evident. That truth about such matters as the origins of the virus, the true death rate, the uselessness of the PCR test, the effectiveness of early treatments, the lethality of the 'vaccines (to name but a few) has usually emerged via that parabola.
And secondly, these bad actors have been complicit in the deaths of tens of thousands of people, at minimum, both from the virus and the 'vaccines'. They have done this with their eyes open. We have difficulty accepting this fact, but it is true nonetheless. And if they are capable of that, what else could they do?
In the here and now, remember; it's about what could they do, which is a factual question, rather than what would they do, which is subjective and judgmental. Remember also, the genie may well be out of the bottle. How are they going to reverse inflation or the supply chain issues? How are they going to undo the 'vaccine' injuries and deaths? How are they going recover their electability?
The regime has all the big guns. But there are factors which are beyond their control, even if they believe that they are omniscient. Opposition is growing, they are turning people against them in droves and it's entirely possible that they don't quite realize it in real time. But the possibility that the whole authoritarian plan will be abandoned seems small. If it is to remain on track, however, the elites will probably need to precipitate a crisis or two. The Olympics has ll the makings of a super-spreader event and, if it looks bad enough, it will be very difficult to resist at least an initial lock-down. It might be some sort of false flag terrorist atrocity that can be blamed on anyone right of centre, which would fit that long-running Color Revolution narrative. Or it may be a financial collapse allied to empty shelves. It doesn't feel like we are entering calmer waters, that's for sure.
