Jim Kunstler Fears “Civic Upheaval” From ‘A Final Desperate Diversion’ By Our “Lawless, Faithless, Clueless Government”

Desperation Creeps In

“There is only one way to explain this shambles: Every one of these crises traces back to the Democratic Party’s obsession with taking and holding power more or less indefinitely to suit its hubristic, end-of-history “narrative” of righteous liberal triumph.”

– Patrick Lawrence

That silence you hear these canine days of a wilting empire is the calm earlier than the storm and all people is aware of it.

“Joe Biden’s” closing determined ploy towards the menace of Donald Trump seems to be about on par with the Ukraine spring offensive, hardly even value a “hey, nice try.”

So, the most effective they might do was to cost Mr. Trump with objecting vocally to an election that seemed as rotten as Hunter’s uncapped enamel?

We all noticed what occurred in a single day November 3 and 4, 2020:

• what the numbers seemed like within the swing precincts at midnight and the magic arithmetic that swapped tens of hundreds of votes over from the Trump column to the Biden column (say, whu?) …

• the shutdown of the Fulton County State Farm Arena on account of a supposedly leaking bathroom and the following monkey enterprise with rolly-bags stuffed with ballots underneath the tables captured by the closed-circuit cameras…

• the miraculous wee-hour harvest of ballots in Milwaukee…

• US Postal Service truck stuffed with accomplished ballots out of Bethpage, Long Island, that turned up in Philadelphia…

• Mark Zuckerberg’s $419-million-dollar operation utilizing two entrance orgs, the Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL) and the Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR) to workers precinct election boards with celebration shills and purchase votes…

• the thumb drives and modems within the vote-counting machines….

Special Counsel Jack Smith could discover it troublesome to show that expressing an opinion about all that’s some type of crime. Meanwhile, he’s turned Mr. Trump into the poster boy for the numerous different aggrieved victims of a authorities weaponized towards its personal individuals.

More than half the nation sees precisely what’s happening and no quantity of video footage exhibiting “JB” and Jill holding palms on the seashore goes cowl for that.

We are on the brink of a king-hell nationwide disaster.

Consider: a 27.4% drop in items of all types “roaded-in” on semi-trucks to the northeast USA this summer season. That’s every thing from auto elements to lumber, clothes, and meals. What else do you assume despatched the Yellow Corp trucking firm, 100 years outdated, spinning into sudden chapter this week? Yellow gained’t be purchased and reorganized, both. It owes three quarters of a billion {dollars} in loans to the federal authorities (i.e., to us taxpayers) and untold pension obligations. Next, 22,000 Yellow Corp staff will hit the unemployment rolls. Yellow Corp had a particular function within the provide chain: the LTL (less-than-truckload) area of interest, usually the ultimate journey of a product to the shopper. It was additionally the most affordable. Whoever picks up the work — FedEx, ABF Freight? — will price extra, and so will every thing you must purchase.

Behind this crumbling financial system looms the delicate monetary system of banks, securities markets, a wilderness of derivatives trades, and currencies. How lengthy do you assume it is going to take earlier than that clockwork of debt obligations and ownerships in failing enterprises breaks down? Think: 4 to eight weeks, beginning with when everybody comes again from the seashore or the lake after Labor Day. Banks will resume failing, too, adopted by bail-out efforts that may open a trapdoor underneath the greenback.

The nation will lastly be taught what Bidenomics means.

Money hassle tends to blot out no matter else is occurring to you, so the nation could not even discover that the Ukraine warfare is a misplaced trigger. Not that we really misplaced it, the Ukrainians did, poor buggers. What function did it play in American life in addition to cash laundromat for the Biden household and a handy stash for any variety of bio-weapons labs?  Are you continue to pretending that the warfare we provoked there was a heroic stand for “democracy?” Will the place matter to us when Russia has to take it on as a charity? The solely factor plenty of newly-broke Americans will discover is the greater than $100-billion we pounded down that rat-hole, and the thought is not going to make them really feel heat and fuzzy.

Have you observed the clamor a couple of coming new pandemic virus? The catch is that it doesn’t even need to be some type of lab-grown novelty illness this time. All it is going to take now to take away tens of millions from the voter rolls is an unusual seasonal flu, contemplating what number of Americans are strolling round with wrecked immune techniques from the mRNA vaccines they lined-up for thus giddily.

There will likely be a lot happening this fall that the nation may not even discover the impeachment hearings towards Mr. Biden, AG Garland, and Mr. Mayorkas of Homeland Security. The main media gained’t even cowl the proceedings.

The solely open query round all of these items —a presidential scandal, the Ukraine warfare, an financial prepare wreck, political present trials — is how a lot civic upheaval there is likely to be on-the-ground throughout the land whereas all this performs out, particularly if our lawless, faithless, clueless authorities tries to put a local weather emergency journey on all people as a closing, determined diversion?
