I won’t blame anyone if they are confused by the actions of the Biden Administration. To any rational person they beggar belief. If these people are supposed to work for the betterment of all Americans how can they act in such openly hypocritical ways?
The first of many executive orders Biden signed on day one of his Presidency was cancel the Keystone XL pipeline. We can argue all day about whether we need Keystone or not. But the market is telling you that we do.
When Biden signed that EO oil closed at $53.13 per barrel. Natural Gas was $2.49 per million BTU and the national averages for gasoline and diesel fuel were $2.379 and $2.696 per gallon.
Today those numbers are $76.10, $5.109, $3.399 and $3.734. In the case of crude oil and natural gas, those numbers are 20% below their peak at the beginning of the month.
Instead of improving the domestic production environment or working with international leaders to improve the global supply and demand mismatch, Biden and company doubled down trying to get the Enbridge No. 5 pipeline from Canada shut down to starve the Great Lakes region of energy this winter.
Now, having stayed the course on Trump’s ridiculous treatment of Venezuela and further deteriorating our relationship with Russia we are now not only more dependent on foreign oil than we’ve been in years but we’re actually more dependent on Russian oil than we’ve ever been.
As a fleet of Russian ships steam their way across the Atlantic, not full of hard-assed, stone-faced Russian marines and Spetsnaz troops, but millions of barrels of Urals grade medium sour to feed those Gulf Coast refineries Venezuela used to keep filled.
I wonder if we pay for that oil with petrorubles. If I were President Putin, I would demand that just for the lulz.
After four years of President Trump’s overly belligerent foreign policy towards China Biden’s team of ‘diplomats’ committed gaffe after gaffe with our biggest trade partner and rival. First at the summit in Anchorage and then multiple times over handling the sensitive issue of Taiwan.
Now, after a series of terrible phone calls, cables and visits by U.S. officials to the Pacific region we are treated to this:
When the protocol-obsessed Japanese and Koreans, whose safety you are supposed to guarantee, refuse to share a stage with you, you basically suck the sweat off a dead man’s balls (H/T Lt. Garlic!).
On relations with Russia, one day they are sending Arch Neocon Victoria Nuland to Moscow who then declares for the first time by a U.S. official that the Minsk agreements the only way forward for Ukraine. The next Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is in Kiev vowing to assist Ukraine in bringing the breakaway republics of the Donbass back under Kiev’s control.
A position reaffirmed by top brass in NATO and the European Union.
Only to have CIA Director William Burns rush back over to try and smooth the Kremlin’s ruffled feathers, mostly to no avail.
Turning to Afghanistan, Biden ran for the office on ending our involvement there. But he did so stranding thousands behind with hostilities towards them raging out of control, surrendering the important airbase at Bagram to the Chinese and leaving behind tens of billions of dollars in war materiel behind only to be captured by the Taliban, who the administration immediately starved of funds and stymied any resolutions in the U.N. to support.
This was one of the most ignominious moments in American history right up there with the Fall of Saigon in 1975, 9/11 and the sacking of the White House by British forces during the War of 1812.
The Biden Administration’s response? It was Trump’s fault.
I haven’t even gotten started on the patently unconstitutional and abhorrent vaccine mandate this man urged private corporations to ignore court rulings against. This is a clear attempt at usurping the courts, local and state governments and common decency itself.
But, then again, that pretty much describes the whole of Joe Biden’s life: corrupt, incompetent, out of touch (well, not always) and incapable of accepting responsibility for his actions.
We have a governing party so at war with itself it can’t overcome the weakest opposition party ever to pass even a simple debt ceiling extension without resorting to incomprehensible games of brinksmanship that belong more in a Mel Brooks movie than on Capitol Hill.
There’s a pattern here and it is a difficult one for most people to perceive, no less even believe, because acknowledging it would change everything.
This isn’t incompetence.
No, in fact, calling the Biden Administration incompetent would be an insult to incompetent people. Because while the incompetent aren’t good at much they are, in fact, good at being incompetent.
But being incompetent doesn’t mean you don’t mean well, it just means you are incapable of performing the task in front of you.
Trump was mostly incompetent at being President. But it was obvious to anyone remotely objective that he was sincere in his desire to make things better. That he couldn’t is forgivable. I wished many times he wasn’t, but I don’t harbor any ill will for his incompetence.
So, fine, put someone else in there, then, right?
We supposedly did that out of exasperation with Trump’s well-meaning incompetence.
But that’s not what’s going on with the Biden Administration.
Biden’s people, on the other hand, are simply scammers.
Scammers lie. They misdirect. They gain your confidence and then keep you in a bubble of lies and promises they don’t intend to keep. They prey on your good nature and your assumptions of how things work to keep you in their orbit.
They lie to maintain the appearance of being in control. They act like they have the solutions.
But the thing about lies is that they are always inconsistent. There is always a tell. But, you can’t see the tell if you don’t want to. And by the time you do, it’s far too late.
Biden’s folks and the media (and, yes, Davos) can’t tell you the truth about the COVID-9/11 clot shots because the COVID-9/11 pandemic was never about public health.
They can’t tell you the truth about the infrastructure bill they just passed because it was never about rebuilding failing infrastructure.
Similarly, they can’t tell you the truth about the Build Back Better bill because it isn’t about Building anything.
The media refused to cover the Kyle Rittenhouse trial or even the events in question with any honesty because the trial was never about Kyle’s guilt or innocence (and the jury ruled properly). It was an opportunity to grandstand on race relations when none of the men Kyle regrettably had to shoot were black.
And this is the first mistake people make when assessing current events. They believe these people are working with an honest desire to make things better. They refuse to believe malice because incompetence is easier to swallow.
It’s why it’s so easy for them to dismiss the truth as conspiracy.
To believe COVID-9/11 necessitated destroying the social fabric of society.
To make us all poorer with hypocritical energy policy because of Climate Change by destroying the oil industry that literally puts food on everyone’s table.
To eat the same rich people their policies created in the first place.
To divide us into arbitrary groups based on our willingness to get an experimental gene therapy whose only observable real-world effect is to create a whole new strata of autoimmune disorders and possibly short circuit the normal immune response to a coronavirus.
The same people today who would nod their head about my assessment of Trump’s incompetence will immediately say we could say the same thing about Biden. And, that’s true to an extent, but that’s also a cope.
Because the worst thing about scammers is that they make you liars, too. We lie to ourselves that it isn’t their fault, it’s ours. We lie to our family and friends that things can’t be what they are.
Scammers turn the uncomfortable truth into a pacifying lie.
Because with Biden’s team the evidence points to something far different, something far more sinister.
These people are vandals. They are intent on destroying society itself and make us complicit in the lie that there is nothing good or decent left about America or, for that matter, everything that they tell us today (as opposed to yesterday) is unacceptable.
That is the hardest red pill to swallow in the end for too many at this point. The incompetence of the Biden Administration is itself a lie. These people have an agenda and a goal and they have moved with assiduous speed and deftness to implement that agenda.
They are not incompetent, but rather hyper-competent… at being vandals.
This is why COVID-9/11 will never end. This is why when we say no to the clot shot they double down and demand we give it to our kids. This is why when information gets out that proves they are lying they lie even more and suppress the information.
Truth is treason in the empire of lies. The scammer will make the lie bigger and bigger to keep you on the hook. They will never admit they are lying.
This is why I keep saying become #Ungovernable.
So, stop hoping they will find some dignity in the end and admit it so you can feel better. Don’t be afraid of it. Just accept it and the responsibility of it. Only then will you be free.
Only then can we put an end to this.

Yuri Bezmenov – ex KGB agent defector to the Weat warned about the dangers of ideological subversion back in the 80s, yet here we all are.
https://bezmenov.net/lecture/
Because most of us never learn!
Great column! It’s all malevolent lies with the force of the government goons behind them. Stop complying with evil! Say “NO!” the most powerful word in the world.
The woke insane democrats take as a given that they will eat, have somewhere to live, and life will go on even if they completely undermine what makes life possible and what makes day to day reallity happen. The question of working for the betterment of all Americans has gone completely off their radar screen because of their mental preoccupations with stupid stuff, so why should anyone be concerned for their betterment in the future.
Exactly. And sadly, we all will suffer, because they must suffer.
Very well said
They have an agenda. To ‘save the world’. But it’s devolved into a self reinforcing madness, continually doubled down upon. Now there’s too many lies, inconsistencies. It’s too late to go back. Will they fizzle out or burn the barn down? We get to watch. Regardless, much damage is done and so therefore, what’s next if we survive?
There are none so blind as those that will not see.
Well sure – America was uniquely free, and its citizenry well-armed.
The Davosians knew that the simple crushing imposition of authoritarian rule would not work – America is not China. Or Australia. Or Austria. Or France. Or Italy. Or the UK. Or Germany. Or Japan. Countries with disarmed citizens, more willing to accept tyranny.
So instead, they enacted Cloward-Piven and Coudenhove-Kalergi. Set Americans at each others throats with a range of false paradigms. Left vs Right. Gay vs Straight. Men vs Women. Black vs White. Christian vs Muslim. Young vs Old.
And now they have installed an imbecile to take the blame for the inevitable societal implosion.
America will cross the event horizon of cultural collapse at the same time as the rest of us, and all of our indoctrinated countrymen will soon beg for global governance.
The Great Reset.
So…………pick your character.
John Galt, or Edgar Friendly?
Societal implosion, cultural collapse. It seems likely. But will anyone benefit? Maybe only those who benefit from death and destruction. It’s not creating anything cohesive.
Not for the Edgar Friendlys, true.
But those who applaud the Davosians as they impose global governance will get all the benefits that the Great Reset can offer.
They will be able to “go back to normal”
And get a universal basic income.
Once they agree to enter the Davosian technogulag.
Ed…something is up….these have been practicing since early am…
https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/aviation/a36478404/watch-first-privately-owned-f-16-take-flight/
Ivor, I choose neither. But I have one question; Who is Henry Bowman?
Great novel…and it’s actually possible. It’s surprising that something like that hasn’t happened already.
Yes the American patriots might rise up I guess, but who will they fight?
The divide and conquer tactics employed in the US have been well designed – the Davosians have created an army of Woken SS stormtroopers and are gambling that either a) rednecks will not fire upon their own children or b) they will.
Heads they win. Tails you lose.
The Davosians are not Maoists per se, but they sure learned a lot from the Cultural Revolution.
You’re wrong on Mr T somewhere. Before 2019 I agreed, but Bannon was part why I jokingly predicted him winning in 2016 and he was clearly weaker without, morally too (I’m not Bannon or a huge fan, but his show had balls, it could be scripted/funded but compared to others). Something flipped him near the 2nd election and it was no mistake. He helped build the surveillance apparatus (see everything on TLAV), gave the WHO money to GAVI, sided with the human rights violating corporations… He triggered all these deranged democrats, as ode to them I blame him for that, why the whole Andrew Jackson act, was that necessary? He mostly hastened things, maybe disorganized them, so things like the vaccines being abject failures maybe wouldn’t have happened without him, that’s all I can say thanks for
There are many things about Trump’s presidency I liked and was grateful for. But in the ways that truly mattered, he was painfully incompetent.
His value lay in exposing the rot, which I am very grateful for as you rightly point out.
But, he never used the Presidency to its full extent to simply flush Capitol Hill and the executive branch agencies of the traitors in them… he lost that war before his first battle was fought. Sad, but true.
Remember, I’m on Trump’s side, but I’m also painfully aware of his shortcomings. And I think today he would be a better president because of his experience. But, as well, there may be better choices for 2024 now.
In a way, it was worth it for the vaccines, it’s a huge personal favor, but everything’s horrible, they’ll have to force me, all I can say is I’ll make it harder every time. 2024 looks really far away. The only one that worked out was Tulsi, a friend predicted her. And the dems probably would.
I still respect him for his balls on a manly level. I wouldn’t say this to his face. But even these guys turned on him (they don’t like me in the comments but they fixed a website complaint): https://aim4truth.org/2021/10/31/donald-trump-traitor-to-america/
This is the perspective that is sorely lacking in the alternative media. People are so conditioned to see absolutes. Patriots feel a need to see Trump as a sort of savior hero who can do no wrong. But we make a grave mistake in failing to admit and confront Trump’s shortcomings. He has to be assessed fairly and realistically. So, for one example, i point to his many many disastrous staffing choices. He seemingly surrounded himself at times with enemies out to destroy him. But we have to concede that he was truly the first real outsider ever elected President, so he had to learn the hard way just how vicious and rotten the Swamp really is. By the end of his term it was pretty clear that the DC federal system is beyond repair or reform. There is no 2024, or even 2022. It has to implode, collapse, and be razed completely with a strictly limited govt in place of the federal behemoth. It may require a new constitution even and a new structure that eliminates the SCOTUS in its current role. What we are ultimately preparing for, then, is the titanic struggle that will commence the minute that the Collapse occurs. The collectivists will try to complete their totalitarian revolution and it will be up to freedom fighters to defeat them.
Thank you Cheezus!
If Nantucket/Davos nominate Brainard, it would support your idea, but if it’s Powell again the reverse isn’t necessarily true. He’s dragging his wingtips on the supremacy of climate calamity. She’s not. Unless they variation-cancel the mid-terms, they have to be worried. Brandon’s utility is fading, Harris’s isn’t viable. They must sideline her(redefining promotion) and replace with Janet yellen, the price-control grandma whose less-than-snappy repartee induces Stage Three anesthesia in seconds. She is quietly loyal to her erstwhile sponsor in Nantucket, good CV, suitably anonymous spouse, not conspicuously ambitious, a stamp collector. And a lady. It’s not easy to imagine her having many critics or enemies, and certainly nobody’s just dropping dead around her. The previous female candidate was none of these things, yet couldn’t believe she could lose to Donald Trump. I’m very glad he won, Gates-Geld bought ’20, and his checkbook is open for upcoming elections. Ideally Trump will drive the Left into a frothing rage with mouthy speculation right up to the last moment, then throw complete support behind the Republican that the Democrats forgot to hate on.
I listen to NPR as part of KYC (KnowYourCommie) and these people are so fascinated with themselves and their wonderfulness and importance, they need to recharge their self-esteem by benevolently controlling the lives of others so that they might be happy. As writers like Twain and Tom Robbins say, happiness doesn’t happen without unhappiness and it’s better to be free than happy anyway. These people are spoiled rotten and display the self-righteousness of secretly knowing they did nothing to deserve what they have. Western Europe has been envious of the United States since the 1800’s, even Goethe (Amerika, du hast es besser)and the elites here wouldn’t mind seeing us brought down to equitable misery either. Doesn’t apply to them, they’re special. As long as there’s Russia and China(and Eastern Europe and South America), the globalists can’t take total control and must ultimately fail. But they can really screw everything up for the rest of us for as long as it takes them to fail. Secession from the US is neither practical or desirable until profound economic upheaval with widespread mortality happens, and then nobody will be interested or able to afford it anyway. Low profile non-cooperation is really all that’s left for those who aren’t sociopaths.
My dual- national niece arrived from Sweden on Monday, got her driver’s license on Wednesday, and bought a new S&W snubby in .22WMR on Friday, it’s still a great country we have here.
CAT… Note date….was he running at this point in time?

I could see Rand as VP (Martin accused him of delaying accusations for his career, it can’t be that bad, sort of like you’re excusing)
I’d throw RFK Jr in there but they’ll shoot him again
I’m so much on the same page with you, Tom, in every single respect including your opinions about Trump, that I could sign my own name to this piece. I have felt in my gut almost since the beginning that what is being labeled incompetence is instead an intentional act to “manage” the nation into destruction. To make room for whatever they hope they can usher in after, I guess?
What supports the idea of intentionality best is that outcomes are continually favoring the same goal, rather than coming down randomly on both sides of the line over time.
Its not just Biden. Pelosi and McConnel have dementia too. Its not just Harris, there are a bunch of marxists in drag in Congress.
More importantly, the entire Federal Bureaucracy views the citizenry as enemies. Its not just AG Garland who thinks all political dissidents are terrorists. The FBI went there first. The law is a joke, it was a DoJ lawyer who tampered with evidence to support Comey / Clapper / Brennan’s attempted coup. Lets not discuss withholding evidence, falsifying evidence, or perjury to the FISA court. The Feds were committing these crimes years before the Rittenhouse prosecution did it.
The federal government needs to be right sized. At least a million pink slips, on top of actual real prosecutions of federal employees / criminals.
Choosing a different dementia patient or a marxist to sit in the oval office isn’t going to solve anything.
Depends what you’re trying to solve.
If you’re trying to demonstrate that national leadership is no longer able to rise to the challenges of the modern world, and we need global governance, imbeciles like Biden, Kamacho, Pelosi et al are exactly what you need?
Its nice if you want to agree with me.
Its unfortunate if you disagree, but that happens.
But ivordeacon you are an imbecile for arguing about something I didn’t write in the first place.
@JamesBond
Yes I realize you’re just saying that the government is too big and growing too fast. And that while it’s going too fast, selecting different speedsters to drive it won’t matter – you need someone that will apply the brakes.
I’m just making a related point – that once the car can no longer stop before the cliff edge, neither braking nor accelerating is of any account.
Those choosing your national leaders now just need someone to blame for the inevitable flaming wreck.
Well said Tom! I’ve been saying a version of the same thing to friends here for months. The vandals have their hands on the handles, to paraphrase an old song. The same thing has been happening here in the Netherlands for years now. The ruling coalition, which are always variations of the same parties, are, among other things, actively destroying the natural gas network with their climate “policy”, immigration continues unfettered despite a structural housing shortage, Covid policy is destroying small business, etc.etc. The country consistently votes majority “right” but somehow we always end up with leftist government, go figger. Keep up the good work!
The vandals are 2.4 million strong in the USA — every federal employee.
From other comments, it sounds like the vandals in Netherlands, Australia aren’t serving their customers either.
We all watched a French man (outside of corrupt Paris) bitch slap Macron. The French vandals don’t care about their customers.
Fire them all. I voted for Trump because he promised to drain the swamp after spending however many years yelling “You’re Fired!!!” on TV. I wanted him to cause a run on pink slips at the federal government.
Twitter is for mental patients. I was never bothered by whatever he wrote there, since no sane person is on twitter in the first place. You twitter fans deserve what you put on your phones.
But fire the bureaucracy. They are called public servants because that is their purpose. If they aren’t going to serve the public, get rid of them. Its way cheaper to have the whole corrupt lot on welfare than on the federal payroll.
Fire the bureaucrats. Slash the pay of those who remain. Hold all of them accountable for their numerous crimes.
Based on plummeting ratings, the media is going to get theirs even if the bureaucrats don’t
It’s way too late for firing people. The federal govt is a criminal Syndicate that won’t be fired or diminished or even held in check. As Yuri Bezemov noted in his talk about communist insurgencies, once a society gets to the final crisis stage, only a military intervention can roll it back. That’s what it will take here. Elections are largely an illusion (see VA governor elect who is stinking more each day). The Fourth Branch of govt won’t allow its power to be threatened, ever.
Deception is the default condition in human relations.
The only goal of government is to rob the treasury for personal profit.
Paid to fail, paid to try again; and fail with any imagination, you’ll get paid three times more to try again.
If you are confused by what you are witnessing these past two years, that is immediately cleared up by realizing all this is right out of the Stalinist playbook.
But … there is hope — the helpless, the stupid, and the criminals among us and in charge of this country usually fail spectacularly, to the general benefit of mankind.
Enjoy the show !
The Democrat party is now becoming widely known to the general public as an anti-white Marxist entity
Obama stewardship of the party has driven it to ruin
Polls indicate that they have lost support of independent voters
Red wave is forming and will wipe them away in nov 22
It is too difficult to use vote fraud in midterms like they did in 20
Davos agenda is DOA in US and I hope that will spread to Europe and Australia
Will they thus now try to collapse dollar debt pyramid?
That would be drastic move
Do they have enough control over the levers of finance?
Excellent article- Biden’s “incompetence” is deliberate and he’s just a puppet of the Deep State.
According to Reiner Feullmich, the COVID hoax was supposed to happen in 2030 but it was rushed to 2019 because the global economy was about to collapse (like 2008 but even worse). That’s why the Great Reset is happening now. Here’s an article that explains what really happened in 2019:
https://thephilosophicalsalon.com/a-self-fulfilling-prophecy-systemic-collapse-and-pandemic-simulation/
Steve Kirsch thinks Biden is vaccine-injured. He says Gavin Newsom is 100% vaccine-injured! Perhaps Davos wants a new puppet and gave Biden a real shot instead of the placebo.
