Perhaps some of you saw the decrepit and senseless President Biden deliver a "State of the Union Address" today that reminded us of the aged leaders of the late Soviet Union Yuri Andropov or Konstantin Chernenko-both of whom were much younger than Biden or Trump are now.
The United States that Biden described is completely unrecognizable for any working American. He described a tremendous American comeback that can only be described as the delusion of an old man, surrounded by old men, who are insulated from the harsh realities of a ruthless society run by private equity firms and IT multinational corporations determined to squeeze the last drop of blood from the last working man, the last working woman; men and women who are struggling under mountains of debt with the sharp blade of unemployment hanging before their bloodshot eyes.
This address was a declaration of war, the start of a war on us that we never asked for.
President Biden ominously reminisced:
"In January 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt came to this chamber to speak to the nation. Hitler was on the march. War was raging in Europe."
Then he stated,
" I address you at a moment unprecedented in the history of the Union.
This obvious reference to President Roosevelt's declaration of war on Japan was not lost on the parasites who roam the Congress. Just one declaration of war and of the corruption and malfeasance of the Democratic and Republican Parties will be swept under the rug. If we are plunged into a world war, that will make the rich richer and give new sweeping powers to politicians and corporations who lack all legitimacy.
I shiver to think of what false flag attack by North Korea, Iran or China will be used as a "new Pearl Harbor" by this desperate and deluded man.
Nor was the threat limited to foreign threats. Biden continued, as cold as a psychopath,
"Not since President Lincoln and the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault here at home as they are today."
He is referring to the MAGA enemy blown out of proportion by Homeland Security that now threatens "freedom and democracy." Such words resemble the noble declaration of the thief in the market, "Stop thief!"
Do not forget that the new predictive programming extravaganza film Civil War will be released on April 12. The point is to get us fighting ourselves in a culture war, a values war, a religious war, any war but a battle against the billionaires.
Surely the bloated Pentagon, intelligence community and the relentless Department of Homeland Security will be delighted to have even more money pouring into their maws, money to passed on to military contractors, and then to the banks behind them.
Did it send a tingle up your spine when President Biden said,
"The are no American soldiers at war in Ukraine. And I am determined to keep it that way."
It should have.
First, it is already a lie. But more importantly, every weapon that President Biden said the United States would not give to Ukraine we have subsequently given to Ukraine. For Biden to say he will not do something is the same as saying that he will do it. There can be no doubt that he is preparing you to have your children drafted and killed in foreign wars. There is no other reading possible.
Biden fell all over himself praising NATO, an unaccountable extra-constitutional military organization that is dragging a group of nations towards world war against the will of their citizens. The manner in which Finland and Sweden have been dragooned into this mercenary army is nothing to boast about. It is the most frightening thing we have seen in our lives.
Biden does not care whether you can feed your family, whether your food and your water is poisoned, whether you are forced to take bogus vaccines for mythical viruses. No! he wants the Congress to pass a bill that gives tens of billions dollars more in tax dollars for foreign wars in Ukraine and Israel.
His cabinet of corporate consultants cannot wait to grab your money for their clients.
And, of course, he had to bring up the threat of "insurrectionists," the myth of an uprising by fascist MAGA extremists who "placed a dagger at the throat of democracy" in an Animal House party of men wearing moose horns which was combined with some hugger mugger by crisis actors to create a constitutional crisis.
The agenda here is clear: Brand anyone who questions vaccines, surveillance by big IT, the control of food by multinationals, or the dumbing down of our population by corporations and government to be a member of MAGA, the home-grown version of Al Qaeda.
I am not saying that Donald Trump won that election in 2020. No one won that flawed and rigged election. But Biden and friends brand anyone who questions his legitimacy to be guilty of treason.
The Biden administration has employed political violence, and the threat of political violence, against its opponents at home and abroad in precisely the manner of the Trump administration. There are differences, but, as far as we are concerned, they are both dangerous criminal organizations that attack each other in an attempt to gain legitimacy for themselves.
And there was President Biden again impudently declaring that "political violence has absolutely no place in America!"
He repeated again with a straight face credit for ending the discredited "pandemic" fairy tale and he praised the deadly vaccines. That in itself if a felony crime—as bad as anything a MAGA follower is guilty of.
His falsehoods about the thriving economy had the dead turning over in their graves. And we learned that "More people have health insurance today than ever before." That Student loans have been "fixed." What great miracles will follow? Halleluiah!
I am feeling a bit faint. I cannot repeat the mythology of Hamas and Gaza that he described, nor his flaccid response to rule by AI.
He did not end by talking about how we will take back our nation from the bankers who are determined to destroy our lives, and our children's lives, for the sake of profit.
All he said in closing, ominously, was,
"May God protect our troops."
That means that war is the only solution he can conceive of for this sick economy.
Forget this sad and aged clown!
Let us join hands, with neighbors and friends and demand an end to the war economy, to the rule of private equity that demands blood sacrifice for it profits. Let us stop the IT, public relations, social media, advertising that dumbs down the population, plants fear and uncertainty, and discourages us from forming our own communities.
End the rule of the billionaires who now control puppets of every shape and color designed to distract and mislead the citizens!
Politicians like Biden and Trump make you mad, sad, frustrated, or isolated—but they will never ever suggest that we can come together to form a more perfect union.
I say to you, join with me, join with your neighbors and let us assess with our own eyes the true state of the union and move forward to drive these charlatans from the gaudy Democratic and Republican houses of horror, from the capital. As Frederick Douglass declared,
"Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
