Edward Hopper Christmas card 1928 • Only Seven GOP Senators Vote To Convict Trump (F.) • Trump’s Philly Lawyers Are Facing A Backlash At Home (
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle February 14 2021]Edward Hopper Christmas card 1928
Nice…
It looks as though there is a cross on the left side of the sphere……as the world churns…
I didn’t manage to get a Congressman to cry. I’ll have to settle with watching Pelosi be confounded and miserable. For creating no case, then sending no case to the Senate and losing pointlessly. Again. While she loses by delaying $2k checks to every Democrat and also losing their support.
Congress loses highest profile case
Newsome in serious trouble
Cuomo in serious trouble
Lincoln Project down.There are no good guys, nobody’s doing anything, the people lost, there is no hope. Somebody want to explain this to me?
And naturally McConnell said Trump was completely guilty, so he voted “not guilty”. Because lying and always doing the opposite is what they do.
It has been widely reported that they traded no Assange pardon for an early acquittal, after of course they created a fake impeachment so they could lever said fake acquittal. Like last time, you know. So now that they double-crossed their deal, because, like McConnell: “Politicians,” will the other side considering the deal is off, start highlighting all the info that’s been declassed? Oh and since one of them is not the President, why is he in the news more than the most popular electee in world history? Why is the planet’s most popular man need the barricade for another whole year? First it was riots, then the impeachment, what’s today’s excuse for sitting in an empty city patrolling an empty fence? And has anyone checked which way the gates are facing?
Since the Federales have no case, the claim now is that the States will bring cases, that is, the States have more power and control than the Federal? Does that really compute?
“He told reporters Saturday he received more than 100 death threats.”
Yes, but following through on those threats requires work, so he’s perfectly safe. They only want it done if the government and police do it for them. The only thing that would be safer is if he put a math problem on his front gate. BTW, the FBI is looking into this, right? Unlike 200 days of riots that just happen to be in Urban Renewal tax zones? Along with – everything – can anyone explain what MVDV was doing? None of what we’re seeing makes sense, so reality must be what we’re not seeing.
“ How To Understand The Rage Economy (IC)”
There have always been papers like this, what the people missed was that NBC and CNN have become as radical as Storm Front and the Daily Woker. How they haven’t caught onto this, I can’t imagine, but I guess you have to invest some real time, and people are busy working. That doesn’t make Fox not radical – they’re radically captured – but you see my point here. Again, the citizens: how did you not know? Is that going to be the defense at your Nuremberg trials? You didn’t know Iraq had nothing to do with 911, you didn’t know Assange was a journalist? Because you’re twee wittle babies and believe everything mommy says?
“The traditional model collapsed…” False, the fastest and best channels are those doing exactly what the NY Times used to do, what they won’t do.
“The loss of the old advertising paradigm simply killed many local news outlets“… False. There are many examples of local news that did their job and remain in circulation under the new advertising. They just want to whine instead of finding models that work and doing their job. The Epoch is one, and many small-town papers, who like AM radio, are churning away just fine. Their major obstacle is that the NY Times even exists and people THINK it’s news, so they don’t buy a real paper instead. They’re clogging the market with free money from the Fed to Wall Street, which prevents capitalism and their bankruptcy, therefore running actual papers out of business while burning half-a-bil a year.
Besides, if they had the slightest notion of being successful and surviving, all conservative news like OAN are straight up despite everything they can do to suppress it. So they know what will sell, they just refuse to do it. So, NY Times, WaPo, it’s not about the money is it? You’re willing to burn a thousand Americas rather than succeed and submit to the people, to the “workers” and the “people” and “democracy” you mouth all the time. That tells me you’re actually religious zealots who only promote your weirdo religion and almost never tell the truth, not journalists at all, which is well-proven every day we read. But despite that all kinds of people can make a go of it, you’re just helpless victims. It’s advertising. “Paying Reader Bad.” Got it. And it’s all from Wall Street merging with government and printing money to hand it to their pals.
No. Since there are NO economic limits or market feedbacks, there is no “business”, there is no “economics” of advertising. if there’s any division, it’s because YOU planted it. Intentionally. Not doing that is a certain profit, but they refuse. They are radically anti-profit, meaning they destroy rather than create.
“India Finally Bans Cryptocurrencies (BTCPeers)”
You can write Bitcoin on a piece of paper. So how are they going to do that? Just like outlawing cash, it’s their mad-scientists’ fun-house petri dish. They experiment on the locals, on the brown people as always again, and as always with Gates-n-co, millions are killed. But like Cuomo, or the Big Short in ‘08, nobody coulda knowd, although we million all had been screaming on the interwebs and completely right for years. Obama chucked a couple million black folks out of their homes. The media cheered and cheers still today. There’s nothing more Nobel-laudable than evicting black folks and droning brown folks. If only we had him back.
We know this one, we’re right AGAIN, and they will fail in their ban but only after killing some folks. I assume from their history they won’t be satisfied until they cause a major famine.
Okay, so where are they going, these 1 Billion people? Um, into gold? You sure outsmarted us this time! Golly.
But really, BTC has moved too fast, a slump here is a good idea.
“the European Union is an unreliable partner”
Yes but only since 1400. And they only killed your entire royal family to steal all Russia’s gold (it had just been loaned to London) and set up a 70-year reign of terror headed by guys from NY and Munich, then collapsed it and dropped life expectancy by +10 years by extracting all wealth in the 90’s to empower violent, anti-Russian oligarchs under national heroes like Browder.
Does the phrase “Not agreement capable” ring a bell? Although that’s the Anglos with any thing, any time, any where, it does apply to Germany and the other Europeans as well.
So…since this is all fair game for the lol’s, shouldn’t Russia really shut off German gas and electric and do the same to them? Fair’s fair, you know. Goose. Gander. No?
Why bother? Europe will collapse themselves with their suicidal, irrational, unmanly decisions. When they are the wasteland they are shopping to be, Russians can graze their sheep there in the peace of what were once cities.

HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE RAGE ECONOMY
In “Postjournalism,” media ecologist Andrey Mir analyzes the way the news economy shapes our perceptions of reality.

(My point of view:
Murtaza Hussain should have done more, “follow the money”)https://theintercept.com/2021/02/13/news-rage-economy-postjournalism-andrey-mir/
Andrey Mir in a new book calls “postjournalism.” Mir’s book, titled “Postjournalism and the Death of Newspapers,”Today established news outlets not only struggle to find advertisers after Facebook and Google swallowed up the market, but they must also compete with a seemingly infinite number of other websites, companies, and even individuals committing “acts of journalism” or just putting out entertainment, thus forcing them to battle for a finite slice of an attention economy that they cannot possibly corner.
A return to the old hierarchical world of news media is highly unlikely, and that’s a good thing on balance. But creating a worthwhile new media landscape will require protecting news organizations from the Darwinian economic pressure that forces them to peddle outrage.
“When one sees enraged users on social media or journalists very selectively covering news in the mass media, it must be understood that these users and journalists are under the influence of the media,” Mir writes in his book.Also, another good catch

Opening the CIA’s Can of Worms
Edward Curtin“With the rise of alternate media and a wide array of dissenting voices on the internet, the establishment felt threatened and went on the defensive. It, therefore, should come as no surprise that those same elite corporate media are now leading the charge for increased censorship and the denial of free speech to those they deem dangerous,…”
This is one example of the censorship underway with much, much more to follow. What was once done under the cover of omission is now done openly and brazenly, cheered on by those who, in an act of bad faith, claim to be upholders of the First Amendment and the importance of free debate in a democracy. We are quickly slipping into an unreal totalitarian social order.
Greenwald says,They do it in part for power: to ensure nobody but they can control the flow of information. They do it partly for ideology and out of hubris: the belief that their worldview is so indisputably right that all dissent is inherently dangerous ‘disinformation.’”
Thus, the old school print and television media are not on the same page as Facebook, Twitter, etc. but have opposing agendas.
In short, these shifts and the censorship are about money and power within the media world as the business has been transformed by the digital revolution.
(I Agree)I commented yesterday with links to UK data listing the reported reactions to the Covid vaccines, including (for the Pfizer vaccine) reports of blindness, deafness, paralysis, immune system disorders…
A clarification for WES, I didn’t mention the number of reported deaths, but it’s listed in the data and article.
“The MHRA received 107 reports of death after the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, 34 after the AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine, and 2 in which the brand of vaccine was unspecified.”I imagine Trump’s lawyers really would experience some backlash from their part in Trump’s impeachment trial in the Senate….for being extremely lousy excuses for lawyers.

Fact
Trump failed to succeed in making an insurrection.
Nobody has been charged with insurrection.

search in table for charges for insurrection – result – zero, nadaOne hell of a work in progress by Patrick Byrne going on at Deep Capture:
As I started to answer Rudy began checking his phones again, literally fumbling with two or three of them again, reading his texts, etc. For the first time I did what I should have done two months earlier: I simply stopped talking. He said, “No no, go ahead.” I stayed silent and just stared at him. He said, “I can’t turn these off, I might get a call from the President.”
@Mister Roboto – I have not followed much of the trial, but I notice the article you linked mentioning the question posed to the Trump attorneys, “When did President Trump learn that the life of his loyal vice president was in danger?’, which sounds a bit like, “When did you stop beating your wife?”.
I was not impressed with the Van der Veen interview. While I agree with his rant that the media has their own agenda in this particular case he seemed triggered by her reasonable question. One could say that her tone of voice minimized the check mark and the date change but her words did not and he could have expanded on what those meant rather than going non-linear. He starts out by saying “Isn’t that enough for you?” He is asking her to make a judgement call and then berates the media for making judgement calls. That said she was a poor interviewer and insisted on talking over him to maker her own points and defend herself.

BeliefsSo California is going to recal it’s state governor for being an idiot or something like it!
Then why isn’t New York recalling it’s governor for being a mass murderer?So India bans bitcoin! How are they going to know if their ban actually works? They can’t even ban gold imports never mind steal temple gold! Indians should be very grateful their government is so incompetent!
Clearly Trump was holding bats in cages in China!
The CIA is a criminal organization. So was the KGB! So is the CCP!
I know from first hand experience, in 1983, the KGB was a criminal organization! A meter was stolen from the tool kit sent with the mining equipment sold to the Russians. Being state property, the police wanted to know what the meter looked like so they could watch for it on the local black market. Obviously the KGB ran the black market!
Now you know how the mafia took over Russia so quickly in 1990s! What else are 2 million unemployed secret police supposed to do? They keep on doing the only thing they know how to do!
I also noticed all the Russian secret police in Siberia carried AK-47s. I can only surmise that it was a dangerous job and many got themselves killed enforcing the state’s will on everyday Russians. I also surmised that the secret police in Siberia must have not got “A”s in secret police school, especially considering how many of them we accidently managed to corner!
Darkmatter:
One really needs to feel sorry for the mass media now that Trump is gone!
What are the media going to do to keep their viewer ratings up, with no Trump?
Oh, I see they are refusing to let Trump go!
I love that graph (or is that graft) of Romes population.
There are 4 interesting points.
First, the peak when Rome’s empire was being governed properly (building (stealing) wealth).
Second, the first downward slope when Rome became all about the 1% (redistributing the wealth).
The third, when the downward slope suddenly kneed downward (Knock-Knock!). Clearly the 1% had left!
The fourth, when Rome’s population exited enmass as there was no wealth left to redistribute!
