The Smell of Goose Cooking

Guest Post by Jim Kunstler

“Joe Biden could go to jail and The New York Times wouldn’t tell anybody he was no longer president.”Peter A. Golden

Reality has become so elastic in America now that it stretches to a cosmic event horizon deep in the Twilight Zone where everything is magically transformed into its opposite. Note The New York Times report on Thursday saying that the House Oversight Committee showed “no proof” in its disclosures of the Biden Family’s international money laundering and racketeering operations.

In fact, the committee outlined a shit-ton of documentation in the form of bank records detailing exactly how gobs of money from foreign lands were washed and rinsed through a dozen shell companies and disbursed to everyone in the immediate Biden family down to the president’s grandchildren. The committee’s preliminary report was precise as to the money’s exact origins, its journey through the laundering apparatus, and the owners of the bank accounts it landed in. Thus: “No evidence of wrongdoing.”

Meanwhile, another whistleblower from the FBI emerged claiming that an unclassified FBI document called an FD-1023 report exists detailing the Biden Family moneygrubbing scheme. Rep James Comer (R-KY) formally requested it from FBI Director Chris Wray, who has declined to furnish it on the grounds that the doc contains info from a “confidential human source” (CHS), and the bureau can’t compromise an investigation, blah blah….

Here’s an interesting take from a reader of this blog for your consideration:

I have had a theory that the FBI made Hunter Biden a Confidential Human Source.
They can pretend that they were monitoring CCP figures in the US and that Hunter
was in a position to provide them with counter intelligence. As with Whitey Bulger,
the whole business was just a scam to keep him out of jail on legitimate charges.
This would explain why the FBI’s Wray is claiming national secrets now that Comer
is closing in on Biden family corruption and influence peddling.

It would also help to explain why Hunter Biden has been untouchable despite clear evidence of firearms felonies, money laundering and influence peddling crimes. All in plain sight for years. This CHS bullshit has been used repeatedly by the FBI and DOJ to shield Democrats and their henchmen from legal jeopardy. Stephan ‘Hamburger’ Halper, Christopher Steele and various other foreign election meddlers have been shielded by the FBI under the pretense of protecting sensitive intelligence, methods and foreign sources.

Would they dare pull this one with Hunter? Why not? The DOJ and the FBI spent years sitting on his laptop stuffed with incriminating docs and videos, obviously shielding him. The people running these agencies must be liable now for a range of crimes running from obstruction of justice to interfering in a presidential election, to acting as accomplices in the Biden Family bribery crimes. Mr. Comer’s Oversight Committee has only just started. Soon, they will be hauling in witnesses, and even if the cable news networks and the big newspapers don’t report about them, there are too many alt-news outlets that can only be stifled by a Carrington Event.

Does the Party of Chaos actually suppose they can keep pretending “Joe Biden” will run for a second term? Articles of impeachment await for bribery, at least, and perhaps treason. At this point, the case couldn’t be more clear-cut. The House is solely in-charge of the impeachment process. The hearings will be brutal. A bill of impeachment would then go to the Senate for trial, as we’ve seen twice before recently. Do you think the mainstream media can avoid covering that?

You must conclude that there is no way that “Joe Biden” will run for president again. He may resign rather than face impeachment. And then what? I’ll tell you what: Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. starts making-over the Democratic Party the way that Donald Trump transformed the Republican Party in 2016. Bobby Kennedy has the tremendous advantage of standing completely outside the matrix of corruption, lying, and Woke mental illness that the Dems have made of themselves, and the voters are going to notice, even if The New York Times doesn’t.

The people of this land are also going to notice how much damage “Joe Biden,” and those running this fake president have done to our country. A federal judge in Florida temporarily stayed the lifting of the Title 42 — the rule put in during the Covid-19 emergency that allowed border officials to turn away migrants on the grounds of preventing the spread of the virus. (Of course, they should be turned away for entering the US illegally, in the first place.) Do you think those tens of thousands waiting now on the Mexican side care about the legal niceties of all that? Watch them bum-rush the border starting today and keep coming for weeks on end, whatever our government says it’s doing.

Beyond that “Joe Biden” induced fiasco loom the ongoing banking collapse, the cratering on-the-ground economy, the humiliation of the failing Ukraine project, and the exposure of the vast harms done by the Covid vaccine crusade.

And the Kennedy tide rolls gathering speed with every passing day:

Your bitterness arises from the fact that the world has moved on and you elected to stay behind.

If you REALLY wanted revenge, you wouldn’t be wasting time voting harderer. You’d already have it.

That’s how Life and Human Nature work.

Bottom line? You’re not nearly as angry as you think you are. You simply haven’t gotten to that point…yet.

To DV bot or douchebag,

The natural human right, codified in America’s founding documents, of secession, was violently prevented in 1865.

Ergo, peaceful change ended in 1865.

BTW, America was the result of secession (however incomplete that secession may have turned out).

In 1960 my great uncle picked JFK up at the airport and drove him to a parade in Joliet, IL. They were passing out those old time straw hats or “Skimmers” with the campaign slogan on them. All of us kids had to stay home except my cousin who was “the big girl” at seven or eight years old. She got one of those hats and the rest of us were fairly upset as only a half dozen six and unders can be. Memories.

I’ve been reading him since’99 (he thought Y2K was going to be the end of modern humanity), I like his writing style and agree with almost all his views, but reading him lately is like Lucy jerking the football away from Charlie Brown. My wife just told me I’m wasting my time here so I told her I need a place to vent and asked her if she would like it if I vented to her and she told me to carry on.

What is the likelihood that by Labor Day we have more of this evil shit to include RPG’s and helicopter gunships? Fucking Technicals?

Ok sure. I believe we heard this very same music over and over with
1. Election fraud. Just wait! The indictments are coming
2. Hillary Clinton and her server. We got her, just hold on the cuffs are coming soon!
And what happened? Absolutely nothing. Disappeared like a fart in the wind.
So what will really happen?
Probably a faked death of Hunter via an ‘overdose’ with a sad good bye letter while he moves on to some tropical locale
Probably Joe having an accident of some kind, or could possibly be he makes all the Deep State wet dreams come true and just really blows a massive aneurysm with zero help from anyone. I mean the guy is a walking time bomb of health issues.
Various other old-ass Bidens dropping dead or having accidents, some maybe real (the old fucks) most probably faked.
Why? Well mission accomplished of course! More division, more polarization, more race baiting, more poverty, less food, less gas, less freedom.
Anyone who thinks all of this was not allowed, nay planned, is delusional. We cannot ever vote our way out of it as the votes are rigged and that is plain as day.
There is the very thorny issue of Klownmala Harris. She got to go and the D’s nor anyone else wants this cackling doofus in real power. If Joe actually kicks for real before the end of the year, it would be the perfect scenario. Klownmala is sworn in but still has to run, and so problem is solved via another rigged election and they can either put in Gavin Hairgel or maybe dig The Queen Lich up for her final swan song who knows. I’m sure The Orange Man will be right in the thick of things to distract and divide. Bernie may strap on his sweater and mittens for one more run too.
Possibly The Pudding Cup in Chief will declare another pandemic, or there’s always war to gin up some kind of patriotic fever against whatever boogey man du jour we want.
There are still plenty of trains to derail, chickens to kill, and food plants to burn down. There are thousands of Hispanic White Supremacists patiently waiting at the border to come on over and get them some illegal guns and shoot up malls.
Hey, at this point just have Tom Brady announce he’s running. Fuck it.

JHK is a very gifted writer. He not only produces powerful, well written essays, he does it with consistency.

That said he is the definitive Boomer, locked into the belief that the system is able to reform itself. He remembers a better America and while he writes fiction about what happens after- excellent novels, fwiw- he doesn’t want to see it happen. He’d rather continue believing that a better day is just ahead.

I remember wanting to convince people of the same things. I looked for every possible way to try and wake people up to the way things were and to warn them about what would happen if they didn’t do something, but that kind of thing is fruitless. The only one who can awaken someone is the conscience of that individual.

The best route is to live the life you’d like to see and let that be enough.
