“SUPER-TRUNA-LIMU-NUMA-PRZURE-ALA-DICIOUS!”

Well, it’s Halloween and Joey B began celebrating early when he turned up in Pennsylvania as Willie Wonka.

English? Don’t be silly, “Trunalimunumaprzure” is clearly Oompa Loompasese.

Oompa loompa doopity doo – Michael's TV Tray

It is the native language of the Oompa Loompas originally from Loompaland, a small isolated island in the Hangdoodles. Sounds like Joe’s kind of town.

Little known fact: in the 1964 book version the Oompa-Loompas were little brown creatures from deepest darkest Africa that Wonka took home with him to work in his factory and to give them a better life. They were essentially indentured servants in Willie’s chocolate factory working literally for (cocoa) beans, which were their preferred food.  Oh, and they also enjoyed singing while they toiled in the candy factory.

In the version first published, they were a tribe of 3,000 amiable black pygmies who have been imported by Mr. Willy Wonka from ‘the very deepest and darkest part of the African jungle where no white man had been before.’ Mr. Wonka keeps them in the factory, where they have replaced the sacked white workers. Wonka’s little slaves are delighted with their new circumstances, and particularly with their diet of chocolate.

While not politically correct it certainly seems an accurate re-telling of how the Democrats built their Great Society.

“I love all these chocolate people, although they aren’t as diverse as the jelly-bellies.”

But come on man, you know the thing: SUPER-TRUNA-LIMU-NUMA-PRZURE-ALA-DICIOUS: Translated it means  “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”

Happy Halloween! Beware the Blue Moon, the Werewolves and…

Democrats handing out free stuff.

Oh and for the record: Halloween is in honor of the slaves Willie Wonka used in the building of his candy fortune: free candy for all as reparation.

#Fightback

If half the country weren't in thrall to an epidemic far worse than the Chinese Virus – I’m talking about TDS of course – the outrage meter against the type of bias exhibited by media giants such as Twitter/Facebook/Google would be constantly fluctuating in the red zone. Regardless of which team you played for.

Curses! Foiled Again!: My Rage-O-Meter is Pegged

But like their progressive political partners Big Tech giants are committed to promoting their ideology and they are use to getting their way – by any means necessary.

Thus we have the likes of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey lying to the Senate about his company lifting the ban on the NY Post, (they did so briefly then re-imposed it) and otherwise dripping with disdain for the Senators who dared question him.

(He) explained with an eerie calm that The Post can regain access to its Twitter account anytime it wants — once it deletes a tweet with an image his company has decided violates its standards.

As the Post pointed out:

Dorsey’s words echo the ­assurances offered writers in authoritarian states that they will be allowed to publish their other scribblings . . . just so long as they burn the manuscripts the censors find offensive in front of the censors.

Not a standard of freedom of speech normally hailed by the Fourth Estate but in in the age of We Hate Trump and Will Do Anything To Get Rid of Him, well, as I said, by any means necessary.

Anarchists Respond to Trump's Inauguration, by Any Means Necessary - The  New York Times

And this new standard likewise applies to the selective application of rules: Carrboro town officials refuse to remove Black Lives Matter flags from Early Voting site.

As you can see, Black Lives Matter flags adorn the only early voting site in Carrboro, a town that describes itself as a “progressive haven” and a “remarkable example of a diverse, exciting, town.” As long as that diversity doesn’t entail any actual diversity of thought.

“After consulting with the town attorney, the Mayor and Town Council have chosen to leave the flags in place,” Carrboro officials said in their statement.

Because, as Glenn Reynolds points out, “Lefties see their slogans as nonpartisan symbols of things that are just objectively good. It’s only the right’s slogans that are divisive symbols of hate.”

We will take our slogans to the polls in the form of votes.

Sleep Well, Big Brother Is On the Job

This is the sort of story you shouldn’t watch just before turning in for the night.

Documents gone missing in mid-stream - how did that happen? While it was clear this was a targeted theft I, like the “major overnight shipper,” had no clue how it was pulled off. As often happens in these circumstances, Sundance has a theory, apparently based on personal experience. 

So here’s what I think took place. The package, likely a Fed-X delivery, was intercepted by FBI agents using mechanisms for tracking and surveillance that open targeting through portals connected to DHS.

As an outcome of the U.S. Patriot Act, the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security has an agreement in place with mail shipping companies, public/private services, that essentially allows them a portal to track all in-state and interstate mail deliveries.

Here’s a reminder: between 2011 and 2019, in the middle of a Mormon polygamist enclave in Bluffdale, UT your government built one of the largest data centers ever assembled.

See the source imageNSA Data Center, Bluffdale, UT – and that’s just the main building:

http://jto.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/wn20130608a6a.jpgThis is the rest of the complex

Its purpose: to intercept, decipher, analyze, and store vast swaths of the world's communications as they zap down from satellites and zip through the underground and undersea cables of international, foreign, and domestic networks.

It is also critical for breaking codes: financial information, stock transactions, business deals, foreign military and diplomatic secrets, legal documents, confidential personal communications—will be heavily encrypted. As Wired magazine noted 8 years ago, “in the little town of Bluffdale, Big Love and Big Brother have become uneasy neighbors.”

So sleep well tonight in the knowledge that your government’s National Security Agency is monitoring all of your news they think they have the right to know - and doing with it as they please.

YOU GUYS ARE AMATEURS.

Oh, and don’t worry about your mail-in ballot: it’s perfectly secure.

P.S. I would like to go no record as predicting that someday Edward Snowdon and Tony Bobulinski will be identified as hero whistleblowers who both tried to warn the country of great evils.

All the News That Fits Our Agenda, We’ll Print

In a sane world, one ruled by reason, logic and the rule of law, there would be no reason to be nervous about President Trump’s reelection. But we live in a make-believe world created by a deceitful media cabal that has run up a 4 year track record of biased reporting which has racked up a cumulative 92% negative rate of coverage of the President, his policies and his supporters.

But worse than the partisan coverage is the flat out squelching of stories/information that would provide voters with vital information that, yes, could sway the outcome of an election. Even Matt Taibi - of all people – has exposed some of them.

But none of the buried stories have been more egregious than the suppression of the current Bobulinski revelations about the Biden family connections to the Chinese Communist Party. Bobulinski, mind you, is not your run-of-the–mill suspect whistle blower with damaging information against a Democrat candidate. For one thing, he’s a life-long Democrat, as well as a retired Navy lieutenant, an independently wealthy man with nothing to gain and a great deal to lose. In fact he is currently receiving death threats which has forced him to hire a team of former Navy Seals to guard his family while he himself is located someplace else. He did not take this route lightly; I would say he is a credible source.

Tony Bobulinski spoke to Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night in an interview from Los Angeles

But not credible enough for the MSM who have and will most likely continue to give zero amount of coverage to this critical story of a potentially compromised presidential candidate. Because, as Gerald Baker put it, they think the job of media watchdogs is to guard Biden.

All Things, it seems, will not be Considered. In the long and dishonorable annals of journalistic cant, there have been few statements to compete with the one issued by National Public Radio last week explaining why it wouldn’t burden its listeners with any news about Hunter Biden.

“We don’t want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories, and we don’t want to waste our listeners’ and readers’ time on stories that are just pure distractions,” said Terence Samuels, the network’s managing editor for news.

Hence, there will be a media blackout, and with no coverage there can be no scandal. That’s how Obama managed to get by for 8 years “scandal free” as well. If it isn’t covered it’s like it never even happened.

So don’t expect to see any coverage of this huge story before the election anywhere other than Fox because the Legacy Media has determined that their job is to get rid of President Trump at all costs. Even if it means electing a man with dementia, who can’t “work” more than a few hours a day, who can’t or won’t answer any questions about anything other than his favorite milkshake flavor and is up to his ears in a pay-for-play influence pedaling scheme with our country’s greatest global enemy.

The Legacy Media, like the Biden Crime Family will claim “plausible deniability.”

Pray for our country. These people are not simply evil they are dangerously evil.

The Biden Crime Family: Patriarch Joey with lil bro Jimmy, Hunter with “Big Guy”

And by “these people” I include the Legacy Media. They are disgusting - and dangerous to our republic.

Born At The Right Time: A Liberal’s Lament

"A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on." – Carl Sandburg

As you may have surmised over the years Paul Simon is one of my favorite minstrels. Despite his all-in progressive proclivities some of his tunes are among the most poetic, lyrical, beguiling  – insightful even - songs of the later 20th century. This soul-searching selection struck me as somehow appropriate for commemorating Justice Barret’s confirmation last night.

Of course poetry is always open to interpretation but this song’s point seems pretty clear. It’s a sort of classic liberal lament: on the one hand we have the roiling, overpopulated planet to contend with but on the other… the miracle of birth! - the wonder and potential of each innocent child born. It’s a dilemma for sure: what’s a committed-to-sustainability, “save the planet” progressive to do?

That’s the problem with progressives, they never seem to have the correct answer to their own questions.

Born At The Right Time

   Down among the reeds and rushes
A baby boy was found
His eyes as clear as centuries
His silky hair was brown

     Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time

     Me and my buddies we are traveling people
We like to go down to restaurant row
Spend those euro-dollars
All the way from Washington to Tokyo
I see them in the airport lounges
Upon their mother's breast
They follow me with open eyes
Their uninvited guest

     Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time

Too many people on the bus from the airport
Too many holes in the crust of the earth
The planet groans
Every time it registers another birth
But down among the reeds and rushes
A baby girl was found
Her eyes as clear as centuries
Her silky hair was brown

Never been lonely
Never been lied to
Never had to scuffle in fear
Nothing denied to
Born at the instant
The church bells chime
And the whole world whispering
Born at the right time

  Amy Comey Barret, her hand on a Bible held by her husband Jesse, is sworn in as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court by Clarence Thomas, its longest-serving justice, as President Trump looks on.

We’re all born at the right time, some people just seem to take more advantage of that fact than others.

It’s Amazing What You Won’t Find If You Don’t Look

“Anyone who is still clinging to the notion that the mainstream press isn’t a wholly owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party needs to watch the exchange between premier journalist Christiane Amanpour and Republican National Committee spokeswoman Liz Harrington.” - Issues and Insights

Set aside for a moment the MSM’s refusal to mention the Hunter Biden laptop story due to “lack of verification.” The critical exchange in Armanpour’s interview entails whose “job” it is to provide such verification: mind you, that “job” was once assumed to be the Fourth Estate’s primary role in society – regardless of which party it exposed.

Starting at about the 2 minute mark Amanpour condescendingly dismisses the laptop story by saying it is some sort of a Russian disinformation scheme and sneeringly (I&I’s words) tells Harrington:

“As you know perfectly well, I’m a journalist and a reporter and I follow the facts. And there has never been any issues in terms of corruption,” referring to the Bidens. Here is what follows:

HARRINGTON: Wait, wait, wait!
AMANPOUR: The FBI —
HARRINGTON: How do you know that?
AMANPOUR: I’m talking about reporting and any evidence. I’m talking to you now —
HARRINGTON: I would love if you guys would start doing that digging and start doing that verification.
AMANPOUR: Now, we’re not going to do your work for you. I want to ask you a question —
HARRINGTON: That’s a journalist’s job!
AMANPOUR: —contrary to what —
HARRINGTON: It’s a journalist’s job to find out if this is verified!

And there you have it:

According to Amanpour, for the mainstream media to spend time investigating a Democrat for wrongdoing amounts to a violation of journalistic standards. It is “doing Republicans’ work for them.” She just admitted that she believes a journalist’s job is to do the Democrats’ bidding.

For Christiane’s benefit, here’s a brief refresher course in investigative journalism:

Investigative Journalism: Definition & Examples - Video & Lesson Transcript  | Study.com

Investigative journalism is a type of journalism that uncovers what others don't want uncovered. Investigative journalism is also called watchdog journalism. An investigative journalist digs deep into one story, whether it be corporate financial corruption, violent crime, or other topics that might not get covered in everyday news.

One of the main goals of investigative journalism is to spur change. An investigative journalist might spend four years following a politician and uncovering a money laundering crime to protect the people from electing a criminal.

But not now, certainly not at CNN; they can spend four years chasing a manufactured Russian dossier that might get rid of President Trump but they can’t spend four minutes looking at a potentially explosive corruption case that might harm “their” candidate. Or in the words of Jim Treacher’s evergreen tweet:

It is amazing what you won’t find if you don’t look.

Cometh the Hour, Cometh the Man

I can understand people being wary of Donald Trump in 2016. When I’m feeling generous I even forgive them for voting against him because at that point he was an unproved equation. Plus, despite what we thought at the time, the Left had not yet revealed their full depth of veniality. Nor had they fully revealed the danger associated with their absolute hatred for the founding principles of America.

But now, now here comes a man reviled solely because he stood in the way of their power to control us. A man who has survived every piece of crap his enemies have hurled at him since the moment he announced his candidacy. He’s endured four years of ceaseless “grassroots” protests, political and personal attacks by a highly partisan and weaponized media, two coups engineered by political enemies embedded within his own government, impeachment and non-stop, orchestrated public “RESIST everything Trump” rallies beginning the day after the election and continuing to this day; progressing from peaceful Pink Pussy Hat marches through “mostly peaceful” BLM and ANTIFA riots. Nevertheless he persisted.

So OK, the President is a flawed man. If that were the standard no human would ever be elected to anything and we’d still all be either savages or serfs. That Donald Trump does not look or sound like your ideal leader is precisely what makes him the man of the hour. On this great planet, in this great country, in this time…choices must be made. Often that choice comes down to choosing between shades of gray but this time, this election, is a choice between light and darkness. Choose the light, it is the hour.

To every man there comes in his lifetime that special moment when he is figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered a chance to do a very special thing, unique to him and fitted to his talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds him unprepared or unqualified for that which would be his finest hour.  - Winston S. Churchill
