No, Richard Barnett took an empty envelope, but more on that later.

For now, the following excerpt from the charging documents has caught my eye and fancy both. It describes the scene of the federal crimes Barnett has been charged with --   

Video surveillance from a camera positioned outside of the Speaker’s main office door captures individuals entering and exiting the office. At approximately 2:30 p.m., several unidentified individuals appear to try the door to the office however the door is locked.

At approximately 2:33 p.m. an unidentified individual pushes in the door to the office.

Got that? At around 2:30 p.m., several people tried the door to the Speaker's main office and it was locked, according to the complaint. At 2:33 p.m., someone...

The New York Times informs:

At least one National Guard soldier is under investigation for standing in front of a sign on Monday morning bearing the name of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California, with both of his middle fingers extended and posing for photographs taken by about a half-dozen other soldiers, officials said.

The behavior, reported by a person who witnessed it, was confirmed by the National Guard Bureau, which said it was “aware of the incident.”

The soldiers were moving through the Speaker’s Rotunda, an area on the second floor of the Capitol, just before 11 a.m. when the incident occurred. A Capitol Police officer approached...

Today's title is taken from "The OGPU," a chapter in one of the history books I've lately dusted off: Walter Krivitsky's In Stalin's Secret Service.

An early, senior defector from same, Krivitsky uses the phrase to sum up what Yezhov, Stalin's new leader of the OGPU, told a gathering of OGPU leaders in the "club room" of the annex to the Lubianka, as Stalin's old leader, Yagoda, was himself being purged.

It is March, 1937 and Stalin's blood purges -- purges, purges and more purges -- are intensifying in order to eliminate political opposition and all thoughts of political opposition.

Some quotations from the chapter. 

As the Soviet State became progressively more totalitarian, as the Bolshevik Party itself became the victim of what it had created in 1917, the Secret Police gained greater and greater power, terror became an end in itself, and...

When I happened on the Jeffrey Clark story as it was breaking days ago, it seemed clear this was the leading edge of a new assault in national pysops against clean elections, rule of law, free speech and the rest of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights -- oh, and breathing if you happen to be a supporter of any of the above and voted for Donald Trump, which turn out to go together. 

Here is a close reading of the agit prop in Part Two of the new psyop assault. Part One targets Jeffrey Clark, also discussed here. Part Two targets House Freedom Caucus member Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania, thereby framing normal, lawful, ordinary (if you operate at the highest level of national politics) behavior as illegal, just as it would be in a totalitarian state.

Brandon Straka criminal complaint here. 

The regime has The People on the run -- and that's a priority. 

 

The following is excerpted from the criminal complaint lodged against 23 y/o Andrew Ericson of Oklahoma, another very small fry caught up in the DOJ's Investigations into Violence at the Capitol. Nothing about Ashli Babbitt's killer here, however, even though Babbitt is the only individual to have been slain during the protest and by a Capitol Hill policeman. There's "violence" and there's "violence," and apparently killing at the Capitol isn't "violence." But beer-snatching fits the DOJ rubric. Details below.

We are today into the third installment of the latest alchemy by the New York Times to keep the truth bottled up, thus producing explosive "news" to drive the next witch-hunt/purge. Indeed, before I could get my analysis posted today (see below), those three installments had already hit the jackpot: both a DOJ IG investigation and a Senate Judiciary inquiry in Trump/DOJ conversations about what to do about the election fraud that stole the presidency (see NYT reporter tweet above.)

These conversations pertain to what may have been Donald Trump's final thoughts and discussions as President of the United States on ways he might have broken through the Deep State phalanx blocking political and legal investigations into the voluminious,...

Andrew Wrigley is an artist and shoemaker from Pennsylvania. Here is a video of Wrigley talking about his painting; here is a series of videos in which Wrigley talks about making shoes by hand.

On January 8, 2021,a special agent with the Capitol Hill Police Investigations Division Threat Assessment Section received a set of images from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Washington Field Office Intelligence Operations Center. The images were screenshots of photos and videos from Wrigley's Facebook account which Wrigley posted after attending "the protest in DC at the Capitol #stopthesteal." 

Wrigley also updated his page to the effect that he had also entered the building: "At the protest in DC I went inside the capitol building and got tear-gassed," he told his Facebook friends (and the FBI).

Disappointment Update, Jan 20, 7:14am.

I don't understand why Trump didn't pardon political prisoner and Wikileaks publisher Julian Assange. Tucker Carlson relayed from a source that McConnell threatened Trump with a conviction in the Senate if he did. Having had the greatest election landslide in history stolen from, what's a conviction from a court of gangsters? Be that as it may, no "deal" Trump could make with them is a "deal." Could there have been something else on someone else's table? We'll probably never know.

The reason things seem to be happening so fast is because our Cultural Revolution was so far advanced when they pulled the cord on January 6.

The latest Party line seems to be to drive the focus away from Big Tech/Media censorship of the political opposition, including the President of the United States, to high-octane fury against the BIg Tech/Media censors for their incompetence in not censoring sooner and more widely, thus saving lives, democracy, etc. (Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez may have been first out of the box on this.)

All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.

By rights, by laws, by elections, by facts, by courts, by states, by both houses of Congress, we should on this Sunday before Inauguration Day be practically tired of winning. We should be almost past the initial waves of giddiness and relief that should have carried us through the shank of 2020 as we congratulated ourselves and our neighbors on the glorious fact that on November 3, American voted themselves "Trump country," re-electing the president in a historic landslide.

This was not just a landslide for Donald Trump and the American people; it was an even greater landslide against the criminal gangs leading the Deep State from the depths of the Swamp; the same anti-democratic forces that waged...

An extremely nice shout-out via Twitter as the good ship free speech goes down and patriots are outlawed in the America they resoundingly delivered to President Trump in the stolen election of 2020.

It comes from Richard Poe, a co-author of David Horowitz, and thus especially notable because Horowitz made a decision in 2013 to sacrifice his reputation in an attempt to destroy mine, and, more important, my book, American Betrayal.

As the late M. Stanton Evans explained:

Especially galling to West's critics is her contention that Washington in the war years was so riddled with Communists and Soviet agents as to be in effect an "occupied" city  -- an image that seems to have sparked the greatest anger and most denunciation of her thesis.



Denunication of this thesis by self-professed former communists, that is.

This is a different kind of revolution; overthrowing the president last and at the peak of his political popularity -- a popularity of an intensity that is unique in modern history and probably never exceeded.  

But except for the People who grew to love him more and more -- yes, love him, and what poliitician ever in a million years heard chants of "We love you! We love you!" from crowds larger than rock stars' --  Trump has been alone in Washington, surrounding himself with flimsily-veiled vipers, and from the start. Starting before Inauguration Day 2017 forward, Trump had no foundation or power base inside Washington. His power was always outside Washington, from sea to shining sea, where by dint of infinite charisma and belief in America and America first, he raised the near-dead host and remnant republic to a never-expected point of rennaissance.

This is an important piece of video to watch and share and remember, especially now as re-education media fusion centers are engaged in 24/7 brainwashing to program the American people into believing that the 45th President of the United States "incited" "rioting" at the Capitol to "overturn" the "election," if not the government itself, in a new "Pearl Harbor"-like strike (Newsmax) akin to Islamic terrorism (Andy McCarthy), and must therefore be removed from these dwindling days of office by the 25th amendment or impeachment.

Not second place: What Georgia looked like last night from Air Force One 

--

All caveats aside, here goes a first and only draft of what I think is going on in Georgia, not that I know, but who does?

Some people know. Some people know exactly what is going on. Some people already know the outcome of the obviously rigged Senate run-off race in Georgia, which is happening, or, rather, let's say, finalizing today. Why "obviously rigged"? Because the state government led by the odiosities in charge, Gov. Brian Kemp and SecState Brad Raffensperger, did nothing to fix the state's obviously fraudulent election system.

I can guess, though. I think Kelly Loeffler will win. Why? Because last night, even as President Trump was rallying for her long blonde sorry self in a stadium packed as only Trump can pack a stadium, Loeffler's husband, Jeffrey Sprecher,...

Customarily, when we say goodbye to a year by remembering its signal events, we can cite the news of the previous 365 days as recorded, however imperfectly, by news groups and organizations.

Of course, these reports can be hasty, inadequate, biased or wrong; but they usually contain some vital kernels of information. Even the misinformation -- even the disinformation -- can be instructive. A key quotation, an incident in passing, the eye-witness account -- all of it makes up a larger record that may be compared to other records and judged in the clearer light of many days.

I've written many year-enders over my career. For example, at the end of 2009, I wrote a three column appraisal of "the surge" in Iraq. I took...

Consider the similarities between the Obama document fraud and his constiutional ineligibility for the presidency, and the Biden election fraud and the unconstitutional conduct of key state elections.     

In the simplest terms, omitting much:

1) Barack Obama would not have become president without one fake document, which news media the political stratum protected at all costs. Nor would Obama have become president if the Constitution's eligibility requirements had been adhered to. (See "Remember When Obama Wouldn't Show ID?")

Last night, President Trump explained why he is "so determined to pursue every legal and constitutional option available to stop the theft of the presidential election." The litany of fraud and corruption he lays out is, as he says, "a shame on our Republic." It must be exposed, the injustice corrected, and the perpetrators punished. Please watch and share.

The man's glowing composure, I must add, becomes a winner of the greatest landslide in American history.

Masses of breaking news all around. I am going to start today's necessarily fractional fraud round-up with excerpts from Sidney Powell's interview last night with Jan Jekielek because it is filled with equal parts wisdom, courage and key developments.

On her reaction to the Supreme Court dismissal of the Texas case:

I have a mixed reaction to it. I had some  concern over the standing of the states to raise the issues they were raising to begin with, but I  thought because it was a suit that the court had original jurisdiction of, the court would and  should take it, at least—to look at it and address  it more fully than they did. It has no effect on  our cases, because our plaintiffs are electors who have constitutional standing in the electors and  elections clause of the Constitution. So we will not have standing issues in the four cases that I  brought. The court really must address the merits.

Today's quick hits follow last night's response by the SCOTUS to dismiss the lawsuit filed by the Texas Attorney General, which came as devastating news. However, as Tracy Beanz pointed out, the Texas lawsuit came as an unexpected bolt from the blue this week, and, as such, its setback does nothing to change any of the many strategies and processes already in place and ongoing.

This is true.

I saw varying opinions of the SCOTUS opinion: some legal experts said the dismissal on the point of Texas having not standing made sense; others said it was, as the president's lawyer Jenna Ellis put it, a political whim.
