The Great Reset

Perhaps the best researcher in North America on “The Great Reset.”
Via WRSA, this bracing piece. It’s about the nature of the Russian Bolshevik revolution, but it could have been written a day ago about America.
Anyone wearing a uniform was a candidate for a bullet to the head or sulfuric acid to the face. Country estates were burnt down (“rural illuminations”) and businesses were extorted or blown up. Bombs were tossed at random into railroad carriages, restaurants, and theaters. Far from regretting the death and maiming of innocent bystanders, terrorists boasted of killing as many as possible, either because the victims were likely bourgeois or because any murder helped bring down the old order. A group of anarcho-communists threw bombs laced with nails into a café bustling with two hundred customers in order “to see how the foul bourgeois will squirm in death agony.”
How did educated, liberal society respond to such terrorism? What was the position of the Constitutional Democratic (Kadet) Party and its deputies in the Duma (the parliament set up in 1905)? Though Kadets advocated democratic, constitutional procedures, and did not themselves engage in terrorism, they aided the terrorists in any way they could. Kadets collected money for terrorists, turned their homes into safe houses, and called for total amnesty for arrested terrorists who pledged to continue the mayhem. Kadet Party central committee member N. N. Shchepkin declared that the party did not regard terrorists as criminals at all, but as saints and martyrs. The official Kadet paper, Herald of the Party of People’s Freedom, never published an article condemning political assassination. The party leader, Paul Milyukov, declared that “all means are now legitimate . . . and all means should be tried.” When asked to condemn terrorism, another liberal leader in the Duma, Ivan Petrunkevich, famously replied: “Condemn terror? That would be the moral death of the party!”
Not just lawyers, teachers, doctors, and engineers, but even industrialists and bank directors raised money for the terrorists. Doing so signaled advanced opinion and good manners. A quote attributed to Lenin—“When we are ready to kill the capitalists, they will sell us the rope”—would have been more accurately rendered as: “They will buy us the rope and hire us to use it on them.” True to their word, when the Bolsheviks gained control, their organ of terror, the Cheka, “liquidated” members of all opposing parties, beginning with the Kadets. Why didn’t the liberals and businessmen see it coming?
[ … ]
In one memorable scene, the hero of Solzhenitsyn’s novel November 1916, Colonel Vorotyntsev, finds himself at a social gathering principally of Kadet adherents, where everyone repeats the same progressive pieties. He soon grasps that “each of them knew in advance what the others would say, but that it was imperative for them to meet and hear all over again what they collectively knew. They were all overwhelmingly certain that they were right, yet they needed these exchanges to reinforce their certainty.” To his surprise, Vorotyntsev, as if under a spell, finds himself joining in. It requires an effort to remind himself that what these progressives say about “the people,” whom they do not know at all, contradicts everything he has learned from his acquaintance with thousands of common soldiers. When Vorotyntsev ventures the slightest discordant observation, “just . . . one little thing . . . they were all on their guard. They fell silent, as they had been speaking, in unison, and their silence was aimed at the colonel.” He retreats and, as if hypnotized, repeats progressive pieties with the rest.
What is this strange political hypnosis? Vorotyntsev gives ground and holds his peace, “not because he felt he was wrong, but out of fear of saying something reactionary,” a word Solzhenitsyn italicizes to suggest that, in other cultures and periods, a different term of opprobrium will play the same role. Soldiers who are brave under fire cower before progressive opinion. For a long time, Vorotyntsev cannot bring himself to voice counterarguments, “and he despised himself for it. . . . It was a contagious disease—there was no resisting it if you came too close.”
This rehearses in stark form what we’ve discussed many times here on these pages, that is, the claim that one is going to be “Gray Man.”
Stay hidden, stay silent, amass your inventory, don’t silhouette on roofline, and when the proper time comes, you’ll oppose tyranny, whether tyranny of language, tyranny of gun control, or financial tyranny. I humor such beliefs with the approval of nom de guerre comments, and in fact have been scolded before by readers who send articles in for publication and commentary for giving out even their first name. So I just now say, “from a reader.”
But your free speech rights are the first to go. When the progressives have taken the academy, the police, the military, the churches, the grade schools, the corporations and every other aspect of the culture, it’s too late to go public and defend your home and hearth against tyranny.
The founders used their real names. They knew the stakes. Staying “Gray Man” because you want to prepare is a recipe for failure, or better, a dangerous opioid that may dull the senses into false beliefs.
This isn’t exaggeration. Soldiers who can brave fire often find it difficult to oppose peer pressure, because, after all, “what will people think of me?”
I think you know the answer to that question. You’ve known it for a long time.

Sidney Powell is a great attorney and she has terrific investigators. She is the one, of course, who exonerated Michael Flynn of any wrongdoing and worked the FISA court over for fraud itself.
Having said that, where is this mountain of evidence? Time is short. Why isn’t this mountain of evidence in the hands of the American public? Why hasn’t a lawsuit been taken to the Supreme Court yet? Has such lawsuits made their way through the state and been rejected by the corrupt state supreme courts, as they will?
I have no doubt she is engaging in some truth-telling to power. The problem is that they don’t care any more. That’s how deep the corruption runs. This may be too little, too late. In fact, the failure to see that this was going to happen and stop it before the election may have made all of this moot.
Black Lives Matter has defaced the road with gang markings in front of the White House. I am right here right now but about 50 meters away from that top photo.
Buildings around Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Portland, and many other cities are pasted with “BLACK LIVES MATTER.” Businesses are boarded up to ward off the Flat Screen Rioters (FSRs) encouraged by team-Biden.
Some readers will say, “But Michael! You’re getting political!” Reality check: Osama bin Laden made the attacks on America for religiopolitical reasons. Historical fact. Politics to war.
It is also historical fact that I stood at 0430 this morning in front of the White House on “Black Lives Matter Plaza,” so-named this year, officially. And scrawled the graffiti of racial superiority and violence down the road.
They have murdered people and caused billions of dollars in losses due to theft, arson, and loss of business. Just here last week numerous people were stabbed and beaten. Right here. In front of the White House.
When terrorist groups did this in Iraq, do you know what we did? We hunted them down. I was there as witness. General Petraeus warned not to fly sectarian or other flags, or else.
And do you know what we did in Iraq and Afghanistan when people interfered with elections? I was there for both. We shot them.
I think that’s a good idea. I’m sure, based on the fact that Petraeus is an adulterer and gun controller and aligned with the globalist and leftist agenda, he’d rather those complaining about interfered elections be shot. He and McChrystal both. I know what you’re thinking. What does Petraeus being an adulterer have to do with his position on the constitution? Answer: Unfaithfulness in one thing shows a systemic problem everywhere.
Do you know what we did when we caught terrorists fighting in the streets? We shot them. With rifles. With helicopters. With A-10s. With Hellfire missiles.
And you see why people like me are ready to leave Afghanistan and not get involved in Syria. If we cannot run a simple election in United States, we have no business installing our operating system abroad. President Trump is right. Get us out. Fix our own house.
We’ve got a guy with dementia and his crack-addict son — who clearly have sold out to foreign powers. A crackpot and a crack addict are a crack-pipe away from the White House, after an obviously fraudulent election.
We are so close to civil war that I can smell the gun oil. Ammunition is flying off the shelves by the billions of rounds. First-time gun owners have stripped the shelves. Anti-second amendment people have armed-up and some say explicitly this is to kill people like me who believe in the 1st and 2nd Amendments, and the Constitution in total. Supporting the Constitution is now seen as radical.
I think he’s right on every account. Read the rest here.
This is what they had planned, as well as what went wrong in their plans (via WRSA).
The plan was simple.
Saturate the media with polls showing a blue wave and an inevitable victory. Discourage people from voting in person. And then, after tabulating the paltry votes of those who defied the media to vote in person, dump all the tampered, altered, and harvested ballots for Biden in key cities.
Even before Election Day, the Democrats knew their plan was going awry. Suddenly, instead of urging their base to use mail-in ballots they were, just as loudly, telling them to vote in person.
Why? Too few Republicans were voting by mail and too many were going to vote in person.
If the Election Day numbers tilted too decisively to President Trump before suddenly going Biden’s way, the election would look rigged, and there would be an outcry from Republicans.
Despite last minute efforts urging Democrats to vote in person, that’s exactly what happened.
Once again, Democrats had overreached, committed a massive crime, and have been left with no choice except to ride the tiger. That’s what happened last time when the Obama administration allied with the Clinton campaign to eavesdrop on its political opponents. And then doubled down with investigations and indictments, not of the perpetrators, but the victims.
Despite the blatant irregularities in key battleground states, they’re doubling down again.
The American Coup is underway. In classic Leninist fashion, its initial goal is to control the propaganda and the process. The media has declared Biden to be the winner while mass celebratory gatherings cheer the new order. Big Tech censors any skepticism about the election.
And the same faction that declared four years ago that casting doubt on an election was patriotic and the best defense of democracy now claims exactly it’s treason.
The only Democrat rule is that it’s patriotic when they do it and treason when their opponents do. That’s not how ‘democrats think. It’s how dictators rule.
All of this is a sideshow. What really matters is the process, not the propaganda. The propaganda is meant to divert attention from how implausible the media’s numbers are.
Republican turnout rose, instead of falling, in in-person voting, and the GOP also went into Election Day with clear leads in mail-in ballots in key battleground states, including Wisconsin and Michigan. The tide of Biden ballots that arrived during the night resulted in implausible turnout figures. The photos, videos, and whistleblower accounts of poll and postal workers tampering with ballots didn’t take long to show up. And just as quickly to be censored.
The odd numbers mostly came out of urban areas run by notoriously corrupt political machines. And the race between those trying to steal and unsteal the election began with a power struggle. In Philly and Detroit, efforts were made to keep Republican observers out of view.
In Philly, it took a court order to even get the observers within sight of the ballots, while the city continued to fight the ruling. In Detroit, windows were covered up with cardboard, and Republican observers were locked out. Potentially tens of thousands of ballots were illegally transposed with no Republican observers. In Pennsylvania, Democrat operatives had been illegally given access to rejected mail-in ballots so that they could arrange for provisionals. And back in Detroit, workers were told to backdate ballots that had arrived after the election.
In Wisconsin, thousands of witness statements may have been illegally altered.
Meanwhile the glitches, errors, and irregularities began piling up.
He encapsulated it very nicely. Once in, they had to “ride the tiger.”
Professor Mann of Penn State was trying to prove something he couldn’t prove about global warming. Most people misunderstand the intent of his seminal (but falsified) paper.
He wasn’t really trying to prove that the globe was warming, although that was one outcome. He was trying to prove that there was correspondence between tree ring data and global temperature (which would then allow him to show global temperature rise). Since global temperature has only recently been measured and tree ring data has been around for much longer, he wanted to show similar graphs.
The trouble for Mann was always that it was false. The tree ring data stayed on course in a relatively similar direction, while global temperature actually decreased during this tree ring data graph. He had to “hide the decline.”
So that’s what he did. For years he refused to release his raw data. Unfortunately for him, it was leaked and researchers finally saw what he had done. He adjusted the data to hide the “hockey stick” decline in global temperatures. He was, and always will be, a complete fraud, just like his global temperature model.
Joe Biden is a fraud, and the hockey stick vote tally, common around the country in swing states, is one more instance of the Mann proposition: If you can’t be truthful and win, just lie.
There’s a group on Facebook (for now – we all know how it goes on Facebook) called Stop the Tires Truckers that is organizing the strike. As of the writing of this article, more than 15,000 people had joined the newly formed group.
Our message is simple and hopefully effective. We fully intend to exercise our rights, and will not have politicians making crippling decisions, that will negatively affect our future and the future of our children.
President Trump has worked diligently for four long years to protect the rights and freedoms of all Americans, and very importantly the blue-collar workers of this country. The blue-collar workers are literally the ones that make the wheels turn! Without truck drivers this country could not survive for long. Our intention is not to harm anyone. We would like to make a point that we do NOT wish for any companies or private truck drivers, supplying any kind of medical supplies and/or services, to participate in our movement.
“We will not participate in the leftist, Biden/Harris Green New Deal. We do not support the banning of fracking. The United States of America operates as a capitalistic economy and OIL is the fuel she survives on. With this being said, we will STOP ALL TIRES for 24 hours on Veterans Day 11/11/20. If this is not effective and our leaders do not respect that blue-collar truck drivers are having to face domestic terrorism, primarily in democrat run cities all over the United States, and that we do not support the banning of fracking in any way, then we will have our second STOP OF TIRES for FOUR full days 11/26/20-11/29/20.
We are calling for all patriots to share this all over the country. We may not last long on Facebook, but please do not be deterred, and continue to share this on any social media or other outlets, that you have available to you.”
Thank you & God Bless America (source)
And as of this writing, the group has over 31,000 members.
The threat is real, prepare your logistics beforehand.
Another day, another refusal to count ballots by the states in play. This isn’t differential equations. This is addition. It’s elementary school mathematics. They know how to do it. They’re working hard to engineer the outcome the deep state wants so it can green light largesse to failed states, the global reset, de-cashing, forced vaccines, and their laundry list of controls.
The mask hasn’t just slipped off. They tore it off and don’t care if you know. Election officials in Michigan and Wisconsin have refused to explain the hockey stick vote tally where hundreds of thousands of Biden votes suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Ballot counters in Detroit are covering up windows with cardboard so that watchers can’t see what they’re doing.
The Philadelphia Sheriff is not enforcing court orders for poll observers. The election fraud is literally everywhere it matters. In my own home state of N.C., they’ve forgotten how to add, and the result has been stagnant for days now.
The good news is that the GOP has shown just what a party of pit vipers and demons they really are. Very few republican congressmen are willing to back Trump on charges of election fraud.
I was watching Newsmax TV a few minutes ago and heard Ted Cruz make very strong statements on election fraud and also supporting Trump, but virtually no one else. The masks have come off in the republican party too.
The constitution doesn’t mandate open elections to determine the presidency. But when laws have been passed that mandate such things, failure to adhere to those laws is oath-breaking. God abhors oath-breaking, and He will not bless this country – this country that has turned from a true republic into a banana republic worthy of Hugo Chavez or Nicolas Maduro.
Oh, make sure to note that Mitch McConnell has already said he is looking forward to “working with” president Joe Biden. You heard that right.
One final thing to note. I hate virtually any television, but if pressed to watch it, there are only two channels left worthy of my time: Blaze TV and Newsmax TV. I just got finished watching Greg Kelly Reports at Newsmax TV. If you don’t mind what I say too much, you’ll like Greg Kelly, a former Marine, unleashed from his awful chains at Fox News.
I’m not as positive as he is. But it’s Matt Bracken, and he’s always worth listening to. I do share his disgust with the GOP establishment.
The soul of the democratic party is wickedness. The GOP simply lacks a soul. They’re just absent of everything except self-serving laziness. They believe in nothing.

This is perhaps an even more dangerous situation than being in an automobile and being attacked by these monkeys.
In my opinion what occurs in this video is assault and battery, and warrants the use of deadly force to stop.
The problem, of course, is that the police would come after you, not the perpetrators. The police know it, the monkeys perpetrating the violence know it, and you know it. No one cares about your loved ones or your safety except you.
Therefore, staying away from these people – or if you find yourself in the middle of something like this, getting away as fast as possible – is the best option.
