“MIGRANT INFLUENCER” Arrested. “When we last checked in on illegal ‘migrant influencer’ and scam artist Leonel Moreno, he was on the run from authorities after his despicable story went viral. Of course, we’re using the phrase ‘on the run’ rather loosely because Moreno didn’t seem to making much of an effort to hide. He continued putting out “influencer” videos on Instagram after his TicToc account was suspended and he posted on other social media platforms. He posed for selfies in a suburb of Columbus, Ohio, including one where he was standing in front of a police car. But if Moreno thought he was untouchable, his assumption turned out to be incorrect. ICE officers arrested him yesterday and took him into custody. He was still in Columbus and apparently had made no effort to flee. His immediate fate is unclear at this point.”

EVERYTHING IS FINE:

There are 3 overlapping crises happening right now. A cold US civil war, a breakdown of the international order into a 3, perhaps 4 front global conflict and the revollt against 20th century materialist ideology. Everything is shifting and there is a scramble to come out on top.

Human beings assign a low subjective probability to events outside their normal experience, even if historic data assigns it a higher probability. "It can't happen to me". War is one of those things. It is something that happens only in the movies.

THERE’S A REASON WHY A MAJORITY OF AMERICANS THINK OF THE FBI AS BIDEN’S GESTAPO, YOU KNOW: Woman Records Very Creepy Visit by the FBI.

IT WILL BE IF YOU VOTE FOR THEIR TICKET: It’s a death trap, it’s a suicide rap. “Inside the hall, the three presidents sat in matching white armchairs and took the stage to strains of ‘Born to Run’ by Bruce Springsteen, the unofficial bard of the Democratic Party. . . . Three Presidents were sitting in white armchairs before people who’d paid up to $500,000 apiece to sit in the audience in the most beautiful theater in the country. The comments over there are mostly about the fourth President. That guy, Mr. Trump, steals focus from everything. Also stealing attention were the protesters at the 3-Presidents event. They were shouting ‘blood on your hands’ Obama chided them: ‘You can’t just talk and not listen. That’s what the other side does.’ Seems to me protesters on Obama’s side have interrupted more speeches than those on the other side.”

Today’s Democratic Party machinery is getting the treatment from the Woke Left that it last got from the New Left in 1968. And as always, the talk of “blood on your hands” comes from the people with bloody-handed fantasies.
