Sick Of and Done With

Guest Post by Jim Kunstler

“Biden is not well. Everyone knows this even those who support him…the difference is they don’t care and that’s the most frightening aspect of this situation.” — Edward Dowd

They’re kidding, right? That “Joe Biden” is capable of being president? Not just for another four-year term, but right here and now? This has got to be the most pitiful case of national gaslighting since 218-AD when the Romans installed 14-year-old Heliogabalus to front for their empire. Like “JB,” he reigned for four years (before the praetorian guard offed him). The Danish historian of ancient Rome, Barthold Niebuhr, said of him: “. . . [He] had nothing at all to make up for his vices, which are of such a kind that it is too disgusting even to allude to them.”

SUMMER THROWBACK: DUMBASS FAT CAT, CRAZY LADY, & SECTION 8 AT THE BEACH

Tomorrow we are headed to Wildwood for our annual vacation. The start of summer wouldn’t be complete without a reposting of this TBP classic from 2011.

UPDATE 2020:  Fat Moe’s days at the shore are over. He left for the big litter box in the sky. The Section 8 couple, skinny Mike and Fat Foul Mouthed Joyce broke up when Mike was sent to State Prison for selling heroin in a school zone. She immediately shacked up with a huge black dude who ended up taking her away to Florida.

We sold the condo in January 2019, so no more Section 8 stories. It was an interesting 12 years as a condo owner. Now we’re just renters.

UPDATE 2021: My real estate acumen has been proven once again. We had the condo up for sale for 3 years without a nibble from 2016 through 2018. We finally sold it for $240,000 – an $85,000 loss after 12 years. The condo above ours just sold for $389,000, two years after we sold. At least I got that big tax writeoff.

Update 2022: Condo in my old complex sold for $489,000 in the last few months.

Enjoy

TBP AS AN ECONOMIC INDICATOR

Based upon the results of TBP as we approach the halfway mark of this year, I would say the economy is in the toilet.

Oddly, page views are up dramatically versus last year, while advertising revenue and donations are in the shitter compared to last year. The charts below are a little hard to read, but show page views year to date are up 16% and are tracking to get back to near the 12 million mark we achieved in 2021 and 2022. In case you’re curious, the month in green was the denial of service attack month when TMWNN rode to the rescue and kept TBP alive. Otherwise this place would not have been around for the last ten years.

The parallel universe the legacy media insist we’re living in

Guest Post by Catte Black

Hey people, are you seeing this?

You might have less money, more debt, massive energy bills, your chickens might be about to be culled, your car rendered unusable, your health permanently destroyed by a safe and effective “vaccine”…

but look, the Princess of Wales is wearing a big hat!

The Death of the Shadow

Guest Post by Todd Hayen

Recently my sister gave me an article written in a weekly magazine that the El Convento Hotel in San Juan, Puerto Rico printed back in 1963. The little magazine was titled The San Juan Diary published once a week. It was chock full of ads (more ads than print copy!) primarily advertising for entertainers, restaurants, cocktail bars, cigarettes, booze, and local venues for a wide variety of attractions playing throughout 1960’s San Juan.

The Ever Widening War

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

British Foreign Minister Says “We must go after everything Russian.”

“We will show Putin that we are completely behind Ukraine: we will chase the money and the oil, we will stop the gas, we will stop the ships,” declared British Foreign Minister Cameron.

The UK is “hunting” companies that do business with Russia “all over the world,” Cameron said. “We will sanction companies in China, in Turkey, in Kyrgyzstan, even in Israel, that we believe are supplying dual-use material” to Russia, he added.

“Freaking Brilliant New Trend”: Write “Vote Trump, End Taxes On Tips!” On Server Checks

Via ZeroHedge

About a week ago, former President Trump floated the idea of canceling taxes on tips at a campaign rally in Las Vegas. By Thursday of last week, Republican lawmakers were delighted by the idea and how it could generate new Trump voters ahead of the November elections.

“This tips thing was genius,” Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) said, who was quoted by The Hill, adding, “[Trump] was like, I’d love to tell you it was based on a bunch of research, but it was based on a discussion with a waitress who said, ‘They’re coming after my tips.'”

Cramer said these service workers are “just feeling this assault on their tips” by the Biden administration. This is also happening as Bidenomics inflation crushes the working poor into oblivion.

THIS DAY IN HISTORY – Bob Dylan records “Like A Rolling Stone” – 1965

Via History.com

By the spring of 1965, Bob Dylan’s presence in the world of music was beginning to be felt well outside the boundaries of his nominal genre. Within the world of folk music, he had been hailed as a hero for several years already, but now his music was capturing the attention and influencing the direction of artists like the Byrds, the Beatles and even a young Stevie Wonder.

3 Recession Warning Signs for What’s Left of 2024

From Peter Reagan for Birch Gold Group

Key Takeaways

  • Small businesses are more pessimistic now than during the covid panic
  • The banking sector’s fiscal position may decay further
  • Credit card delinquencies are hitting Great Financial Crisis levels

If you look beyond the corporate media headlines that appear to be campaigning for another Biden term, you’ll notice something disturbing…

Bad economic news is pouring in furiously from many different directions. Here are just a few of many examples:

  • Since January 2021, the Biden economy has been dominated by historic and still persistent inflation.
  • Family food costs have been soaring to all time highs on an annual basis according to the USDA.
  • Some Americans have resorted to skipping meals just to pay their mortgages.
  • Since the economy is interdependent, the inflation problem has started crushing the housing market through high rates and out of control home prices.
  • While GDP might still be staying afloat, economic prosperity is starting to feel like a thing of the past for a growing number of Americans.

Hunter Biden is his father’s son

Guest Post by Alex Berenson

The White House is a hell of a drug; no wonder Joe Biden can’t quit it

Beware the compiler.

For the entirety of his pre-Presidential career, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was never one of Washington’s A-listers. He was always an afterthought, sometimes a joke.

His biggest political achievement was lucking into the Senate at 29 from a toll-booth state and staying until retirement age. He won a grand total of six elections along the way, building a national political career with fewer than one million votes in all six races combined.

Putin On G7 Seized Assets Plan: “Despite All The Trickery, Theft Is Still Theft”

Via ZeroHedge

After on Thursday Group of Seven leaders agreed at a summit in Italy to give Ukraine $50 billion utilizing interest from frozen Russian Central Bank assets, President Putin has addressed the move during a speech before his Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

He once again denounced this as brazen ‘threft’ and described that Western leaders are trying to come up with “some kind of legal basis” for the asset freezes, “but despite all the trickery, theft is still theft and will not go unpunished.”

Greetings to Young Americans: You are Automatically Registered for the Draft Conscription without Representation? Where and WHY are we sending our Kids to War?

Our government is planning a big draft, conscripting millions of young Americans for an even bigger war!

I call to your attention a Democratic amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which was slipped into the almost trillion-dollar Pentagon war spending bill, by voice vote, in the House Armed Services committee.

The Democratic Amendment to H.R. 8070, the National Defense Authorization (NDAA) reads:

Russia and NATO are drifting towards a major war

Guest Post by Ivan Timofeev

It’s not impossible that the Ukraine conflict could eventually lead to a nuclear conflict, in which there will be no winners

Is it possible that NATO forces could become directly involved in the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine? Until recently, such a question seemed very hypothetical given the high risks of escalation of the military confrontation between the US-led bloc and Russia into a large-scale armed conflict. But this scenario should be taken seriously now.

The Washington Post’s self-parody reaches new heights

Guest Post by Alex Berenson

Think Trump Derangement Syndrome is bad? Try Long Covid Derangement Syndrome. No wonder the Post’s readership is crashing. These stories call its basic credibility into question.

I wish I were making this up.

It’s hilarious. But it’s also pathetic in every possible way.

Two weeks ago, the Washington Post graced its readers with this headline, which hits basically the whole woke bingo card at once:

In communities of color, long-covid patients are tired of being sick and neglected
