It’s undeniable that PINO – President-In-Name-Only – Joe Biden is massively corrupt in every possible way. From leveraging his position as vice-president for cash to covering up for his meth-addled, stripper-banging, scumbag son – who is currently spilling his Bolivian party powder all over the White House – this senile pervert is a one-man crimewave. And the ruling class simply doesn’t care. If anything, its members are happy about it. This is not something they merely excuse. This is something that they find a positive good. Grandpa Badfinger reset the corruption bar for all of them. Now they too can now freely line their own pockets without fear of shame or prosecution while sending us proles an unequivocal message – we can do whatever we want.
As the gang at the Ruthless podcast (who I’m scheduled to visit next month) observe, this is not about hypocrisy. We’re so far past “Imagine the scandal if Trump did that!” This is about hierarchy. This is to show you that they have power and there is nothing you can do about it.
But I’m unconvinced they are thinking this through.
Granted, it’s bad now and will likely get worse before it gets worse – for them. Let’s understand something. Nothing is ever going to happen to Joe Biden regarding his massive criminal enterprise. Nada. Zip. Asa Hutchinson’s chances in the primaries.
Sure, Crusty is probably going to get impeached somewhere down the road, once the Republicans gather all the evidence they can, and there’s a lot of evidence. It’s damning. And it does not matter because Democrats support the PINO’s graft. While the impeachment will barely squeak through the House on a pure party line vote, it’ll go over and die in the Senate. Not a single Democrat – well, maybe election-year Manchin – will vote for it. Understand that to the Democrat Party, power is more important than any of our norms, rules and/or customs. We constantly hear about “Our Democracy,” despite us being a Republic. Well, Our Democracy, Our Butt. It doesn’t mean a nation run by citizens to them. It means the nation run by them.
So, Joe Biden will skate on being impeached, as will that loathsome Stasi clerk Merrick Garland, and whatever that idiot’s name is who runs Homeland Security and left the border wide open. There will be no accountability because there is no accountability. The ruling class figured out that if they just refuse to abide by the rules that used to exist, there’s no cosmic referee out there who will descend from the sky and enforce them. The regime media certainly isn’t going to do it. You just bullSchiff your way through, you commit a bunch of crimes, and you keep your position and your prestige. That’s great for the elite in the short-term. It’s not so great for Our Democracy in the long term. But the elite does not want citizens to have a say in our government. It does not want us to have a saying in anything. It wants us to be disenfranchised, disarmed, defeated, and sometimes deceased.
Look at all the norms and the rules and the guardrails that have been bulldozed away and you might well wonder what the bottom of this slippery slope is going look like. But those of us with a glancing familiarity with history don’t wonder. We know the answer, and the answer is not particularly nice. In the short-term, America will stumble along under the New Corruption for a while, but over time this is unsustainable. These guys are running our country on the fumes of the empty gas tank of American democracy. They keep going because of inertia, running on the power of default. Normal people want to think everything‘s just going along as it always has, but they can sense that something is wrong. They are troubled when they see the persecution of Donald Trump and other dissidents, of pandemic shenanigans, of Wall Street bailouts and endless wars, but it’s comforting for them to assume that everything is working, that the system is fair and just, and that we aren’t living in a dictatorship of the Whole Foods bourgeoise.
Those of us who are based see the reality and accept it, and that’s why we’re not freaking out when we see Hunter using daddy’s name in vain to shake down Chinese crooks for cash. It’s not a shock. We understand the inherent corruption of the ruling class. We understand that the idea that we live under the rule of law is baloney. We understand that the only thing that matters is power. But the normal people are going to figure that out too. How do I know? Because I know history, and this kind of crap cannot go on forever.
The advantage that patriots have over the people running the institutions is that our garbage ruling class is not composed of impressive people. They didn’t build the institutions they are destroying. They inherited them via their Ivy League credentials – often as legacies, which the left will cry about but not actually change because that is how the ruling class perpetuates itself. These are not accomplished people. These are not smart people. These are not brave people, and these are not tough people. They are cruel and ruthless people, willing to use the existing systems of power to defend their societal sinecure, but their problem and their weaknesses that they rely on the proles to do their dirty work.
Can the elite really rely on them? As I’ve discussed before, they can certainly rely on the leadership of the institutions, like the military, to do whatever they were told to do in order to maintain the power of our garbage ruling class. But an institution is not just its leaders. An institution is also its members. The members are largely normals. And remember that the enemy – and you are the enemy – always gets a vote. Crushing us would be no simple task no matter what F-16 advocates like our PINO say.
How is this trend going to turn out? It’s too early to say. But it very likely will get much, much worse. It is not beyond the realm of possibility that Republicans are going to nominate a man for president who the Democrats will throw in jail on trumped up charges – figuratively and literally – before the 2024 election. And then it’s going to occur to even the most unbased people that the rules don’t necessarily apply anymore. Oh, we’re not going to break into some sort of civil war because Trump gets hauled off to Leavenworth. That’s not likely for a number of reasons. But it is going to destroy the illusions of norms for the normals, and the illusion of norms matters. Norms are, in fact, the only real protection those currently engaged in eliminating the norms have.
I’ve often said that Trump is not our last chance but their last chance, and that remains accurate. A backlash is coming. It’s inevitable. Just look at history, which is a giant timeline of rebellions and reformations and revolutions. The idea that the mass of Americans is going to spend the rest of eternity being bullied by a bunch of people with the politics of a divorced Santa Monica wine mom simply goes against everything history teaches us. The question is not if they are stopped but how, and how hard.
Are we going to re-embrace the Constitution? Are we looking at an American Cesar, or an American Franco? These are questions that our ruling class will never ask because they are uninformed of history and uninterested in it. But they’re going to get interested, very interested, in history because history is very interested in them.
‘This is to show that they have power & there’s nothing you can do about it!’ You mean like Caligula’s horse? But the American Baa Baa Sheeple don’t care! They’re got their Baa Baa F#@kin’ Wellfare. So they’e corupt to. As I’ve said before this will only end with the death of hundreds of millions of Americans. Also if F16s don’t work they will simply use nukes.
IF they continue what they have started, eventually the radical ME religion will take them out like they are doing in France and other nations. that welcomed them disproportionately. The ONLY good will be seeing the shock on their ignorant faces as they are led to their hanging.
Appropriate revulsion requires adequate reportage.
Hi Kurt:
The bitter irony is we can’t go back to a government with the original Constitution as its pillar. To do so would be to allow the evil that took us down the first time to do it all over again.
Hope to have you on another podcast soon.
How about we just start enforcing existing law??
EXACTLY!!!It’s called;”Cutting To The Chase”???????????????
If we do that, the whole Biden Crime Syndicate would be behind bars…..which would be a good thing.
True.
Difficult to do, however, with the likes of Biden/Garland running justice in America.
As typical of a third world nation, they go after those who offer testimony of their crimes to the public. I saw this growing up in my home country. One becomes afraid to call the police or complain to a prosecutor for fear or retribution. I personally saw it a lot there. I always saw America as avoiding such corruption. But now it is here in our faces. The jerk smirks when asked about his corruption.
We can’t do that which makes perfect sense. Democommunists don’t know how, or care to, prosecute sensible laws!
You are correct. Our Constitution gave people freedoms. Certain people voted for people who little by little took those freedoms away. Now this gov works with big tech to “censure” anyone with whom they disagree. Freedom of speech no longer exists here when they do that. We have had a slow drift this way of presidents through Clinton. With Obama and now Biden, the fall has been sharp. Elections have consequences. Corrupt elections have particularly terrible consequences.
Amen, you nailed it. We really started to see this with Clinton. It has been a slow descent into hell since then. Trump ripped the ‘band-aid’ off of the corruption so fast that they put the destruction into overdrive. It’s truly remarkable.
God gave us freedom; the Constitution merely codified it. God wants people to be free and eventually the evil bastards in the world will piss him off to the point that he finally takes a major “swipe” at this ball orbiting the sun and thus will begin a thousand years of peace. On which side of the fence will you find yourself?
Since the Wilson Administration the US has been in a 100-year decent into tyranny. Wilson brought us a tax on income and grabbed the Senate away from control by the States. FDR turned what would have been a 2-year recession into a takeover of the economy “to save it”. LBJ used federal dollars to secure a life-long 40-45% voter base, and Clinton sold (for his personal enrichment) our technological superiority to China. Obama began the destruction of our healthcare system and abandoned our allies. We are now seeing Biden and his drag queens destroy our military. It’s almost as if they each doing their part to achieve a “100 year Plan” to over-throw our Constitutional Republic from within. Hmmmm…..
The US Consitution has survived this long and will continue to do so. We can write 5 different versions of a Constitution but if the citizens don’t stand up to enforce a Constitution it will be gone.
In other words, it is up to the people to fight back and fight if we must.
Librivox free audio books: Machiavelli’s: Titus Livius: Discourses on the first decade of Rome:
You will understand just how long bad politicians have been screwing their countries.
Also, just how long ballet harvesting has been a problem. 2nd decade on that one (I think)
maybe 3rd decade. Listen to all decades, its free.
You will also learn who our founders were reading as they formed our once good government.
Thanks for the reference. I will download it tonight
“Are we going to re-embrace the Constitution?” The Constitution is built on the concept of separation of powers. But Congress has expanded the Executive Branch with countless pieces of legislation that authorized one or another federal agencies to “promulgate” rules which passes power to the president and his Swamp creatures. Since Congress is at the heart of this situation and there are only a couple of dozen patriots in Congress, reform is unlikely until the electorate throws the bums out.
John Adams said, “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
Morality and virtue are the foundation of our republic and necessary for a society to be free.
Today’s America does not qualify.
You need Trump back in the oval office. The first time around,he was naïve,and was taken full advantage of and stabbed in the back by those he thought he could trust and rely on.
Should he get in again,he will know exactly who to go after.
Unfortunately fully corrupt Biden has the also fully corrupt FBI and other services covering up what he and his family really are…And that is pure scum of the earth.
Good luck America.You are going to need it,and much more.
Some clever wag once referred to Joe Bite-Me and them as our ‘garbage elites.” Was that Kurt Schlichter?
Yes, I believe it was Kurt. I have adopted it and find that I use the term daily.
Without the Constitution, what do we have? Replace it with what and by whom?
Committee of Public Safety sounds about right. Let the hangings begin!
“And remember that the enemy – and you are the enemy – always gets a vote.”
A bit of unintentional humor.
That, “One person, one vote” thing didn’t work out so well last time. Voting is, and always has been, an illusion.
TRUTH. I think many eyes were opened to this fact in 2020. It has been an illusion for a long time.
Backlash is a long way off. Life in the USA is still waaaaaaaaay too comfy for anyone to do anything but complain.
Absolutely TRUE. We are a LONG WAY OFF from that reality.
Which means, “it’s going to get worse, much worse” is even worse than we can imagine, now.
In the US, at least, people who end up “the ruling class” get ELECTED to positions of power and authority.
HELLOOOOOOO….anyone out there? Anyone see how that works? And do any of you people who keep electing these individuals to public office see how you might bring it to an end?
It’s not rocket science.
I will say it again, there is no way a Rich person will represent the interests of poor working people. It is a mirage. The select rich people to govern us to make sure the STATUS QUO is maintained and nothing changes. The only thing that will change what is going on is the fall of the the US dollar which is the cause of corruption in the whole world. It is coming soon.
You are making the incorrect assumption that elections are free and fair. That ship sailed a long time ago. And finally, eyes have been opened to how easy elections have been stolen. Those who tally the votes decide the outcome. And when the elected officials deny access to ballots in order to reconcile the tallies, you have the perfect scam.
Great column. My late father always said that we had to beware of “the man on a white horse” and feared our society was falling apart and that we would turn to such a person to govern us. Can’t say he was wrong.
Power corrupts – absolute power corrupts absolutely!
ubstitute Democrats and Socialists for Communist and Communism and you get the idea!
This is the purposeful destruction of America and the great American middle class. Find this on the internet: https://archive.org/details/communist_goals_1963_cong_record
Sorry rino kurt, your angry bravado is meaningless. Your obvious hatred of Trump and refusal to acknowledge the massive democRat/rino election fraud that installed this disaster govornment means you will let it happen again to keep Trump and his true constitutional conservative leadership from trying to Make America Great Again
Good comment but are you sure Kurt is Kurt Kong, the RINO.
They want we the deplorables dead.
Money is power and they have the U.S. Treasury at their disposal to kill us all.
I don’t blame the Jews or the Ukrainians or the Chinese peasants or Cambodians who were murdered in the hundreds of millions in the last century for not rising up, that’s insane. I blame the demons at the top and the elites and clueless liberals supporting them.
Besides, many of us out here are fighting in our own families, our own communities., our schools, and our businesses.
You want things to change? Use the power of the purse. We need to do a “ A MASSIVE BUD LIGHT” phenomenon and remove the patronage. That is not going to be easy to do but, it will work. REMOVE THE MONEY and everything will fall apart. The problem we have in this country is, we have way too many people with the “THAT IS NOT MY PROBLEM” attitude and, until those people start to loose everything they thought they had and, have to look into the faces of their starving children, nothing is going to change.
Okay, we’ve gotten an assessment of the situation, I’m curious if Mr.Schlichter has any suggestions for a remedy. We know the corrupt out-of-control federal system gives no quarter to dissent. Does it deserve any less?
I am afraid that the country will just collapse from the debt alone not to mention the corruption and it is the whole government the RINO party is also corrupt they hold hearing after hearing and then do nothing they are covering their own backside .The handful of Republicans that want to do something are stopped cold .The Sniff is the most corrupt person ever to hold office and he thinks he can do as he pleases and he does but he has been on the take for fifty years and has gotten by with it so he is not worried and on top of that he is a senile old fool. It is sickening what the dem/communists have done to the country.
They have done what Nikita Khrushchev said the Communists would do. They continue to destroy our country from within..
And it seems no one who can do anything to change this reality, is doing a damned thing about it!
The whole United Nations was created for a totally Globalists Government all under their thumbs and controlled by their Blue Helmets its just they need to get the U.S. Constitution out of the way and replaced with various UN Treaties singed by traitors/Democrats like John Kerry Bill Clinton Al Gore and Joe Biden
Underlying all the corruption, extreme radicalism, hedonism and what have you is the unrelenting corrosive push to debauch American society to the point of turning this nation into a depraved 3rd/4th world status. The more anarchic we become the easier it is for the elites to force the whole world into a single totalitarian Orwellian system.
THE PLAN IS TO DEGRADE AND BRING THIS COUNTRY TO PAR WITH THE REST OF THE THIRD WORLD. If a worker makes let’s say, $10.00 dollars an hour in Nigeria for example, the American worker will have to be brought down to that level regardless ofThat will destroy the US Standard of Living and wipe out its wealth status and make it conform to the NWO standards.
I’m disabled and living the best life I can……it’s not that great. A few years ago, I had hope. Now, because of bidenflation and other absurdities from the leftist ruling class, I only look forward to my death. If I didn’t have my faith, no one would be reading this because I would have ended it all.
The first people that suffer are the poor and disabled, and there’s a lot of poor and disabled responsible people suffering and dying. Thanks democrats.
And…..if you voted democrat, I think of you as scum, dead and empty inside.
I’m in that sinking boat with you brother. Only my faith keeps me from going postal and letting them end my life. That could change as swiftly as the barometer though. End times are upon us, so look to the heavens for relief. I had a recent near death experience that was so calming and peaceful, but was brought back abruptly?? I guess I still have a purpose here.
The most positive thing to come out of the hell that has descended upon our country is the massive return to FAITH. People are embracing God again. People realize that turning away from our Creator is what led us to this demonic culture of death and destruction. Hold on to that faith and hold on to our Lord. He will sustain us until we meet Him in Heaven. God Bless.
You’re right about leftists but wrong about death. Sight unseen I want you to live and I bet you Know plenty of people who would miss you if you were gone.
Hang in there. Life is a blessing even when it sucks. I know better than most about that. You wouldn’t believe the crap my ex wife put me through and I recently got sucker punched about four times while I was sitting down and not looking, and got into a car collision.
Tomorrow is a different day and it will probably be a better one.
Is a backlash coming? That depends on how ticked off the Dominion voting machines get.
This isn’t news! We’ve known this all along. What I can’t comprehend is the democrats run politics as if they have total control of our government. Why don’t the Republicans stand up to them? Republicans are too timid or too afraid to speak out against the democrats. They are afraid to challenge them. Democrats seem to be in control of Congress because they put up with the administration holding up investigations by the Republicans. They just tell the Republicans to wait on them for what evidence they need and make excuses for their investigations and the Republicans do as they say.
When Pelosi ran the show they didn’t take any excuses for what they wanted from the Republicans. They just went on with the investigation. And they even chose those they wanted in the committees. They do as they please regardless of who is in charge. Wish we had Republicans that were that bold and arrogant!
“Why don’t the Republicans stand up to them?” Because they have no spine and their tiny little sacks are empty. With the exception of a precious few GOP political leaders, they have no philosophical core whatsoever at all. They just want to hold on to their seat with all its privileges, prestige and guaranteed retirement benefits. Thus, the left continues to roll them and get away with whatever they want to get away with.
The Democrats do have total control of the government. The Wilsonian dream of a professional and permanent administrative bureaucracy based on fascistic Hegelian principles is the core philosophy of the “progressive” paradigm. That is what factually governs the United States today. Elections have no consequence at all because the bureaucracy remains no matter who wins elections. It is what a socialist welfare state is in principle–fascist to the core and established permanently via the New Deal and Great Society programs and all that has followed including the crusader state and its utopian nonsense about “making the world safe for ‘democracy'”. It does not matter who is elected, the bureaucracy remains and their agenda always prevails. And their agenda is the permanent growth of administrative totalitarian government and the drive toward global governance and economic control. That is how Trump got rolled from within by his own administration. His own political and legal ignorance and egotistical hubris allowed it to happen. And the Hell of it is, the ignorant masses voted for it believing that government can actually be a benevolent master providing all their wants and needs while they retain some degree of individual liberty and “democratic” control of government. The two ideas are diametrically at odds. They cannot co-exist and the masses (including the populist Trump cult) does not understand this.
Yes, true. But the Republicans are not victims, they are all in on it, too.
Of course they are. like I said, all they want is to hold on to their seats and all the privileges, prestige and guaranteed retirement benefits that come with it.
Most of therm are, that’s for sure.
Republicans tend to talk a good game but rarely ever follow through. I am disgusted with the liars, phonies and frauds of the Republicraps as well as the Democraps. Damn them all to Hell.
The”Non-Stop Negative”re:TRUMP Worked!!!Now ,we hear Zip,Zero,Ziltch,Nada about The POTUS but We are Getting SCREWED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they say cream rises to the top. so does the scum and it has to be scraped off and drained or it will ruin the whole thing
If Beijing Biden is any example, shit often floats, too.
Spot on. Excellent essay. As for the “F-16” comment; I can see a day when the vast majority of military members, most of whom hail from “fly-over country” and still have a degree of patriotic core about them, decide to mutiny and turn on their elitist masters. The military is having a very hard time retaining good members past one mistaken enlistment as it is. And the junior officer corps is not in much better shape either. How many of these military service members would hang around to honor orders from the politicized elite general staff and political leaders to turn their weapons on their own communities and families? There would be no one present to operate the advanced equipment, thus making an armed rebellion possible with a real chance of success. As things get worse, the possibility of such an outcome becomes more feasible as the left advances their totalitarian tendencies. And governors in the “red states” need to entice the police forces away from “blue states” and their inner city hellscapes with bonus offers to join their police forces where they will once again be respected and honored. This would leave the “blue states” and their teaming, criminally infested, politically corrupt, hellscapes naked and vulnerable. Does anyone believe they can turn to their pampered and excused street thugs, BLM and ANTIFA activists to protect them? Abandon them to experience the consequences of their own ideas. Or we could just call for a peaceful national divorce. After all, we no longer have anything in common and are in effect operating as separate political entities anyway. Let them go their way into their dystopian future while we go our way restoring the constitutional, federated, republic (not a “democracy”).
Those in the military will do what they are told. If they are told to nuke their neighbors, they will do it. It has happened throughout history, since the beginning of time.
As a 20-year navy veteran, I can say that you should not be so sure of that.
Godlessness. Curses. Democrats. Worthless. Filthy actions. Sin. Death. Graves.
The whole Biden is and has always been corrupt
They probably could teach that other famous crime family from Sicily a thing or three
If only the Corleonesi Mafia clan could have harnessed the FBI and DOJ into their operations. They are no doubt jealous of the success of the Biden family criminal and treasonous enterprise. They are asking themselves, “Why didn’t we think of that?” Just get one of the clan elected to the Senate, get the taxpayer to fund it and the sky is the limit.
The Politicians who allowed the sex trade child trafficking business to continue will never get my vote again!
Joe is the fall guy for the progressive DNC bunch that handle him. He never ever had the ability of qualifications to be the POTUS. At present he is there in name only. Now we are blaming dementia but the fact is he could never do the job on his best day.
a reckoning will accour. the rats will switch sides immediately (faster than an Italian army).
hopefully, someone is keeping score with names. will there ever be accountability?
(asking for a friend)
The current corruption and systematic destruction of this once great nation is part the Judgement of Almighty God upon this land because of our corporate sin and rebellion against Him.
Corruption is a part of the Washington D.C. culture for generations. Go back to all the corruption that has taken place in the 19th and 20th century. There are many examples from history books, if you do your research.
The problem is the the House has no powers of prosecution and those sworn to uphold the law, those in the federal government with the guns and badges, are in league with the crooked Briben Crime Family.
There is civil unrest in all nations. This is global rebellion preparing the way for the Antichrist. People face one crisis after another through socialism, and marxism, and governments seem to encourage it. They don’t want to solve anything. Its as though they want the meltdown so nations can be totally controlled by elites and oligarchs, and there is no freedom for the people.
