Biden is on a double precipice of the worst-ever economic depression coupled with imminent explosions of social rage
The
massive psyops is ongoing. Everyone familiar with the
Transition
Integrity Project (TIP) knew how this would imperatively play out. I chose to
frame it as a think tank gaming exercise in my Banana Follies column.
This is a live exercise. Yet no one knows exactly how it will end.
US intel
is very much aware of well-documented instances of election fraud. Among
them: NSA software that
infiltrates any network, as previously detailed by
Edward Snowden, and capable of altering vote counts; the Hammer supercomputer
and its Scorecard app that
hacks computers at the transfer points of state election computer systems and
outside third party election data vaults; the Dominion software system,
known to have serious security issues since 2000, but still used in 30 states,
including every swing state; those by now famous vertical jumps to Biden in
both Michigan and Wisconsin at 4am on November 4 (AFP unconvincingly tried
to debunk Wisconsin and didn’t even try with Michigan); multiple instances of
Dead Men Do Vote.
The key
actor is the Deep State, which decides what happens next. They have weighed the
pros and cons of placing as candidate a senile, stage 2 dementia, neocon
warmonger and possible extorsionist (along with son) as “leader of the free
world”, campaigning from a basement, incapable of filling a parking lot in his
rallies, and seconded by someone with so little support in the Dem primaries
that she was the first to drop out.
The
optics, especially seen from vast swathes of the imperial-interfered Global
South, may be somewhat terrible. Dodgy elections are a prerogative of Bolivia
and Belarus. Yet only the Empire is able to legitimize a dodgy election –
especially in its own backyard.
Welcome
to the New Resistance
The GOP
is in a very comfortable position. They hold the Senate and may end up picking
up as may as 12 seats in the House. They also know that any attempt by
Biden-Harris to legislate via Executive Orders will have…consequences.
The Fox
News/ New York Post angle is particularly enticing. Why are they suddenly
supporting Biden? Way beyond internal family squabbles worthy of the Successionsaga, Rupert Murdoch
made it very clear, via the laptop from hell caper, that he has all sorts
of kompromat on the Biden family. So they will do
whatever he wants. Murdoch does not need Trump anymore.
Nor, in
theory, does the GOP. Former CIA insiders assure of serious backroom
shenanigans going on between GOP honchos and the Biden-Harris gang. Trade-offs
bypassing Trump – which most of the GOP hates with a vengeance. The most
important man in Washington will be in fact GOP Senate majority leader Mitch
McConnell.
Still, to
clear any lingering doubts, a vote recount would be absolutely necessary in all
6 contested states – WI, MI, PA, GA, NV and AZ. Through hand counting. One by
one. The DoJ would need to act on it, immediately. Not gonna happen. Recounts
cost a ton of money. There’s no evidence Team Trump – on top of it short of
funds and manpower – will be able to convince Daddy Bush asset William Barr to
go for it.
While
relentlessly demonizing Trump for spreading “a torrent of misinformation” and
“trying to undermine the legitimacy of the US election”, mainstream media and
Big Tech have declared a winner – a classic case of pre-programming the sheep
multitudes.
Yet what
really matters is the letter of the law. State legislatures decide whose
electors go to the Electoral College to appoint the President.
Here it
is – Article II, Section 1, Clause 2: Each state shall appoint electors “in
such Manner as the Legislature Thereof May Direct.”
So this
has nothing to do with governors, not to mention the media. It’s up to GOP
state legislatures to act accordingly. The drama may roll out for weeks. The
first step of the Electoral College procedure takes place on December 14. The
final determination will only happen in early January.
Meanwhile,
talk of a New Resistance is spreading like wildfire.
Trumpism,
with 71 million + votes, is firmly established as a mass movement. No one in
the GOP commands this kind of popular appeal. By sidelining Trumpism, the GOP
may be committing seppuku.
So what
will Deplorables do?
The
always indispensable Alastair Crooke hits the nail on the head in a powerful essay:
Trump is the President of Red America. And depending on how the scripted
(s)election tragicomedy develops next, the Deplorables are bound to become The
Ungovernables.
Crooke
references a crucial parallel evoked by historian Mike Vlahos, who shows how
the current American saga mirrors Ancient Rome in the last century of the
Republic, pitting the Roman elite against the Populares –
which today are represented by Red (Trumpist) America:
“This was
a new world, in which the great landowners, with their latifundia [the
slave-land source of wealth], who had been the ‘Big Men’ leading the various
factions in the civil wars, became the senatorial archons that dominated Roman
life for the next five centuries — while the People, the Populares, were ground
into a passive — not helpless — but generally dependent and non-participating
element of Roman governance: This sapped away at the creative life of Rome, and
eventually led to its coming apart.”
So as
much as the Dem machine had wanted it, Trump is not yet Imperator Caesar
Augustus, whom the Greeks called Autokrator (autocrat), but was a de facto
monarch. The American Augustus, Tiberius and most of all Caligula is still
further on down the road. He will definitely be a benign, humanitarian
imperialist.
In the
meantime, what will imperial Big Capital do?
The West, and especially the American Rome, is on the edge of a double precipice: the worst economic depression ever, coupled with imminent, myriad, uncontrollable explosions of social rage.
So the Deep State is reasoning that with Biden – or, sooner rather than later, Supreme shakti and Commander-in-Chief Maa Durga Kamala – the path gets smoother towards the Davos Great Reset. After all, to reset the chess pieces, first the chessboard must be knocked over. This will be one step beyond Dark Winter – which not accidentally was evoked by teleprompter-reading Biden himself on the final presidential debate. The script gets ominously closer to the Rockefelller Foundation’s 2010 Lock Step.
Meanwhile,
Plan B is kept in ready, steady, go mode: the lineaments of a global rampage,
focused on “malign” Russia’s sphere of influence to satisfy a “revived” NATO
and the military-industrial complex, which selected the now media-appointed
President-Elect in the first place because he’s no more than a pliant cardboard
figure.
