The Raw Deal (5 September 2022)

While I began with Benjamin Fulford's take on the latest with regard to Ukraine and the EU--where their economies appear to be on the verge of collapse--most of this program was devoted to different assessments of the Biden speech, which I believe marks a turning point in American history. Never before has an American president made such a vicious and slashing attack upon American citizens merely because they supported the candidate of the opposing party--whom he may face again in 2024! Newt Gingrich saw it coming with an address he had given just days earlier, but most of us were unprepared for the event as it unfolded. The best assessment came from Roger Kimball, who evaluated (a) the staging, (b) the content, and (c) the long-range agenda. The staging was as though it had been produced by Leni Riefenstahl, with blood-red lighting on the drapery and two Marine guards flanking Biden (whom, I believe, was impersonated by a hologram, the technology of which has reached a high-degree of perfection). It was too smooth to be the real guy, even when "the real guy" is himself a body doubt. The content was a massive assault upon political conservatives and Trump supporters as though they were an existential threat to democracy and the integrity of the United States--which may be the greatest instance of projection Americans have ever seen! And the long term objective clearly appears to be to control every aspect of our lives. While I addressed other stories, the surprise came at the end when Paul of CA called in, which of course is not an unusual occurrence. We began talking about some of the Biden vs. Trump comparisons (weak vs. strong economy, open borders vs. controlled immigration, energy deficiency vs. energy independence), where Paul maintains there is no real difference between the parties, while I insist that there are major and significant differences between Biden Democrats and Trump Conservatives. When we began talking about immigration, I wanted to make the point that ILLEGAL MASS IMMIGRATION is wrong (because it is massive and illegal), but Paul contends that it's because of the races involved, to which I took exception. I am a student of racial differences in intelligence, on which I have a book; but Paul took it in a different direction. Chicago Brew called in after I dropped Paul for further reflections on the state of the union.
