Uncommon Sense was a Common Vice

Those with knowledge of the United States Marine Corps will recognize the irony of this title. I wish its words were not true, but as I write this, I believe they are.

Currently, there is an effort to cull a significant number of career Special Agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This is an unthinkable action that will gravely undermine the security of the nation well beyond what many of our citizens are aware. For those seeking to raise their awareness, I offer this vignette, free of political bias or moral judgment. It is not about any one person, but an amalgamation of multiple FBI Special Agents.

I am the coach of your child’s soccer team. I sit next to you on occasion in religious devotion. I am a member of the PTA. With friends, you celebrated my birthday. I collected your mail and took out your trash while you were away from home. I played a round of golf with you. I am a veteran. I am the average neighbor in your community. This is who you see and know. However, there is a part of my life that is a mystery to you, and prompts a natural curiosity about my profession.

This is the quiet side of me that you do not know: I orchestrated a clandestine operation to secure the release of an allied soldier held captive by the Taliban. I prevented an ISIS terrorist from boarding a commercial aircraft. I spent 3 months listening to phone intercepts in real time to gather evidence needed to dismantle a violent drug gang. I recruited a source to provide critical intelligence on Russian military activities in Africa. I rescued a citizen being tortured to near death by members of an Outlaw Motorcycle Gang. I interceded and stopped a juvenile planning to conduct a school shooting. I spent multiple years monitoring the activities of deep cover foreign intelligence officers, leading to their arrest and deportation. I endured extensive hardship to infiltrate a global child trafficking organization. I have been shot in the line of duty.

Something else about me, I was assigned to investigate a potential crime. Like all previous cases I have investigated, this one met every legal standard of predication and procedure. Without bias, I upheld my oath to this country and the Constitution and collected the facts. I collected the facts in a manner to neither prove innocence nor guilt, but to arrive at resolution.

I am now sitting in my home, listening to my children play and laugh in the backyard, oblivious to the prospect that their father may be fired in a few days. Fired for conducting a legally authorized investigation. Fired for doing the job that he was hired to do. I have to wonder, when I am gone, who will do the quiet work that is behind the facade of your average neighbor?

My new alternative history theory is that if the Italian Partisans didn't execute and parade around Mussolini, then the US government would have given him a job. In this grim future the "Fash Squad" in congress would be headed be Alessandra Mussolini instead of the horrizontalist leaderless faction that exists now as a tenuous confederation of Bobert, Mace and Greene.

I thank the CLN every day for taking responsibility for for their own country's messes.

Guys the empire is over, we're outsourcing concentration camps and prisons. What's even left of the economy? Is Trump really gonna tell the grandpas of America that they fell out of the guard tower for nothing?

Yes I am a socialist "comedian".

You know Marx Never Predicted(TM) get this bread and circuses, a concept centuries older than him. He didn't have entire volumes written about how religion was the biggest bread and circus that you couldn't blame people for believing.

Treatlerism is not a new concept, it's merely that Matt Christman has explained it to you in brain rot terms so the dumbest comedian could falsely accuse Marx of being stupider than him, while still claiming to be a Marxist.

I'm gonna take a page from the way that the US Forest Service runs it's shitty museums and ask, when have you employed critical thinking and applied abstract concepts to the way you live your life?

This is clearly the most powerful thing music has ever done if you're really putting numbers on the board. An evil bard enchants your presidential candidate to fall flat on her face. This almost makes brat cool again.

Also she performed Guess and half of it was censored.

So I'm watching the Grammies and I see a music video starting, and it's fucking Gaga (Abracadabra was the song). Like Classic Gaga. I fucking hated Andy Worhol Gaga, Tony Bennette and Target PRIDE Gaga. But it was fucking classic fucking Lady Gaga like Fame, and Fame Monster. She was so great, she was giving Griffith Berzerk and Bloodborne in the same fucking video. It was true to her fucking roots in custom couture that you'd mistake for Alexander McQueen.

It's a fucking Mastercard commercial. I'm gonna kill myself.

Look at the fucking Pixels and kerning on the bumper stickers and the "Foo County" badge for the fake Kia Soul.

They're such fucking idiots.

Meet the new head of the DNC.

Watch the video on Ken Klip's page to just hear the sound bite, then look at fun excerpt from Salon which is still a lib rag:

Martin went on to say that it’s important for voters to feel like “we’re not taking money from the people that are working against them,” adding: “There are a number of billionaires in this country that have no interest in helping the working class in this country.” Asked who, specifically, he would not take money from, Martin said: “There’s too many to name.”

“There are a lot of good billionaires out there that have been with Democrats, who share our values, and we will take their money, but we’re not taking money from those bad billionaires,” Martin said.

Wikler responded to the question by saying: “We’re not going to take money from people who are actively union busting. We’re not going to take money from the people who funded Stop the Steal.” He added, “If they try to donate we’re going to send that money back.”

When the whole panel was asked whether any of the candidates would support a blanket ban on campaign contributions from tech executives — the same class of billionaires mentioned by former President Joe Biden in his farewell address as forming an American oligarchy — none of the candidates would commit.

Now for a fun excerpt from Da Hill which is a blue stenographer for power and doesn't question anything:

Martin said in an interview with The Hill last year that he saw a multi-faceted role for the DNC amid a second Trump administration — both resisting “the really extremes and excesses of the Trump administration” and defining the Democrats’ priorities.

“You have to give people a sense of who you are and who the party is, who we’re fighting for, and why and that means, you know, if we’re focused the whole time on just resisting Trump, we’re not giving people a sense of who we are and why they should support us,” Martin told The Hill.

Other Democrats agree that the party cannot be in resistance mode all the time.

“There’s a big difference between being the political opposition party and just pure resistance,” former Sen. Doug Jones (D-Ala.) told The Hill.

They're trying to sell "bipartisanship" as "standing for something" (pretending they "hear you, see you") by saying that they cannot be "da #resistance" but they have to be an "opposition party" which they are classically not.

As a treat enjoy this Ryan Grim prediction / quote-Tweet where Wikler laid out out his platform of austerity for the DNC consultant class.

Edit:

To respect the feelings of our Serbian comrades I would like to point out that this is not representative of the protests at large.

I am literally just trying to say: look at this freak I found. The normal libs are the ones carrying the bloody hand print sign from the ZLF. It looks similar to this. In the pic above it has a QR code. The Opposition in general are attempting to co-opt this protest movement.
