“Joe Biden’s” Last Stand

Guest Post by Jim Kunstler

Historians of the future, grilling spatchcocked plovers over their campfires, will need not ponder for even a New York minute who started World War Three in the rockin’ 2020s. They will point straight to the waxy, furtive, larval figure known as “Joe Biden,” by then judged a moral weevil of such epic low degree that he became an embarrassment to all the other sewer-dwelling denizens of the dank DC underworld, including the roaches, the rats, the humble shipworms eating through sunk oaken foundations of buildings long forgotten, the writhing maggots rinsed from a thousand restaurant dumpsters, the slithering hellgrammites, millipedes, silverfish, pillbugs, termites, dung-beetles, woodlice, and, not least, the scaly lawyers spawned out of the infestation beneath K Street called Perkins Coie LLP. Even these would loathe and disdain the thing that came into this world as “Joe Biden.”

Let us agree that the place called Ukraine was never any of America’s business. For centuries we ignored it, through all the colorful cavalry charges to-and-fro of Turks and Tatars, the reign of the dashing Zaporozhian Cossacks, the cruel abuses of Stalin, then Hitler, and the dull, gray Khrushchev-to-Yeltsin years. But then, having destroyed Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Somalia and sundry other places all on a great hegemonic lark, the professional warmongers of our land and their catamites in Washington made Ukraine their next special project. They engineered the 2014 coup in Kiev that ousted the elected president, Mr. Yanyukovich, to set up a giant grifting parlor and international money-laundromat. The other strategic aim was to prepare Ukraine for NATO membership, which would have made it, in effect, a forward missile base right up against Russia’s border. Because, well, Russia, Russia, Russia!

An early beneficiary of these arrangements, you might recall, was one Hunter Biden, the drug-addicted, sex-obsessed, no-account son of Barack Obama’s no-account vice-president then known simply as Joe Biden sans quote-marks — because in 2014, he was a closer approximation of a real person than is sadly now the case. In fact, he was known as “The Big Guy” among Hunter’s business coterie (though listed as “Pedo Peter” on Hunter’s speed-dial). After the 2014 coup, and for years beyond, Hunter pulled a steady revenue stream out of Ukraine’s Burisma Holdings, a natgas distributor (among other things), serving as a know-nothing, no-show board member. When this monkey business came to the attention of President Trump, and he made a telephone inquiry about it, he was instantly beset by swarms of DC swamp vermin hoisting writs of impeachment.

Fast forward through the past eight years and you have Kiev’s persecution of the Russian-speaking Donbas provinces, the constant shelling and harassment by Banderite Nazis. Between that and the ever more strident urgings for Ukraine to join NATO, President Putin of Russia, Russia, Russia apparently had enough. In February of this year, he started the Special Military Operation to put an end to these hostilities. By April, when whole battalions of Ukrainian Nazis had been exterminated, a call to peace talks was issued by Mr. Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister. This was shot-down without ceremony by “Joe Biden” (that is, by the junta behind him). The genius strategists in Foggy Bottom aimed to “weaken” Russia. To what end? (you might ask). Okay: Reasons….

Hence, many hard-fought battles on-the-ground later, Ukraine has lost roughly 70,000 troops killed to Russia’s roughly 6,000 KIA. The USA pours $10-billion-a-month into this venture, including missiles aplenty and other ordnance, in a stupid effort to prolong the conflict and bankrupt our own land. Thus, Mr. Putin has decided to stop pussyfooting around Ukraine, and declared an upgrade in Russia’s effort to put a conclusive end to these shenanigans. He set this forth clearly in a sober speech Wednesday, which included a reminder to the geniuses in the White House basement game room that Russia is a nuclear power.

“Joe Biden” (looking like the ghost of Konstantin Chernenko) answered in a speech to the UN General Assembly the next day, a maundering recitation of sanctimonious bluster, larded with climate hysteria to alarm and bamboozle the UN’s scores of Third World delegates, with not a word about any possible peace talks — because peaceful resolution of the conflict is the last thing that our government wants. It wants war, meaning we citizens of this land will get it, good and hard, if the puppeteers working “Joe Biden’s” mouth get their way. Prepare to live in an ashtray.

From our side, it may just add up — as I said — to plain bluster. The “Joe Biden” regime has already done enough to hurtle the USA and the rest of Western Civ into a new dark age. The nations of the EU have no idea how they will conduct economic activity without the cheap Russian natgas they used to depend on. They are about to get a harsh lesson on the realistic limits of “green energy” they’ve been prattling about for years. So far, it doesn’t look good for them. A few more months of this and the populace from Riga to Lisbon will be stringing up whole parliaments from the boulevard light standards.

Even if “Joe Biden” doesn’t go for the ashtray option, consider the $350-trillion in leveraged financial derivatives orbiting high above the scene like a numberless fleet of death stars primed to blow at the next interest rate uptick. The Euroland stock markets are already tanking hard as I write at 8:30 EDT today. US futures indicate a week-ending bloodbath on Wall Street. This is nature’s way of registering its no-confidence vote in “Joe Biden’s” management of our affairs. All this is on top of the sucking chest wound that Washington DC has become — the necrotic corruption of every agency, the gathering “vaccine” holocaust, the indecent firehose of lies from high places, the Gestapo sleaze of the DOJ/FBI nexus, and the astounding new twists in officially-promoted sexual degeneracy revealed in our schools and hospitals.

Not to put too fine a point on it: the shit has already hit the fan. We are where we were going. If you truly believe those 2020 national election results, then this is what you voted for, America. Feeling any buyer’s remorse yet? Got the feeling that something must be done? Okay then, what?

My father, God rest his immortal soul, once said that We, the people, ought to take the entire US Congress and put them on a big barge on the Potomac, forcing them to sit there doing nothing as they’ve done nothing for decades in office except get paid and grift for money.

Then, my father said, we’d elect another bunch of them to represent us who might not be any better, but you could float that barge within sight of the Capitol Building and it would probably keep them honest, at least until the first bunch died off.

I sent an email yesterday to my two US senators and one congressional representative, all Republicans. I said as a lifelong Republican, I was simply going to vote against any man, woman or child who has scrambled aboard the Ukie funding train to hell. I will vote against them at the mid-terms and I will vote against them at the general election, if we aren’t a glassy sea by then.

The time for “lesser of the two evils” is over. Find a third party you can abide and vote for them. No, they won’t be perfect but the two parties we have are really one so think that you are just supporting the loyal opposition.

I really don’t care anymore, I can’t be bothered to get lathered up over which blowhard (R)(D) wants to be allowed to lie to my face for the next couple of years.

Roll. The. Fucking. Dice.

I’ve been cheerfully voting “third party” in federal elections for decades; I think the tide is finally about to turn! Just kidding, folks, but at least I feel slightly less complicit.

FWIW I take state and local elections a little more seriously, if only because I recognize state and county government as having some degree of legitimacy, which Mordor-on-the-Potomac has not had since the 1860s.

We have long passed the point of no return.

What was their reply to you?
Was there one?
My Congressperson, Lizzie Fletcher (D) District #7, replied to a letter from me with a very antagonistic delivery, bragging to me that she was the co-sponsor of the very legislation I was complaining about!
These people are convinced that they are invincible and that any oppose them not only be erased but ruined as well.
I would not be surprised at all if my Congressional.Representative put me.on.a.list as a future target.

I think reality wee wee’d in his cornflakes. The USD is at all time highs which dampens demand for whatever we still make. Hastens need and desire among foreigners to ditch it as reserve currency. Euro in freefall with GBP following closely. Communist shitheads running around like vermin everywhere screwing up everything they get near. Normie is reaching the resolution stage where he sees a possibility he will need to begin exposing the basement floor.
Democrats are seeing polls sampling majorities of Democrats that show their asses being kicked up between their shoulder blades a few weeks hence. All their faux BS claims, charges and indictments are immediately dismissed as they have cried Wolf! too many times for anyone to even notice anymore while MAGA sees each new lie as confirmation stiifening their resolve.
I predict the Communist Democrat leadership will pull out all the stops, the kitchen sink and things previously unseen in attempts to provoke and disrupt their looming Waterloo.

Frankly, I expect an attempt, perhaps successful, on the life of Sleepy Joe.

Powell Quote:
“We need to act now, forthrightly, strongly as we have been doing. It is very important that inflation expectations remain anchored. What we hope to achieve is a period of growth below trend.”
