The Non-Independent Fed

One of the biggest lies to come out of Washington is that the Federal Reserve is “independent” of politics.  Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!  As Milton Friedman used to say, a government institution that is independent of politics is as likely as a barking cat.  Not only is the Fed NOT independent of politics, it is not even independent of the Democrat party.  In the latest election cycle Fed bureaucrats gave more than ten times more to Democrat candidates than to Republican candidates ($520,000 to 51,000).  An Independent Review article published a few years ago revealed that on the Fed’s Board of Governors staff there were 97 Democrats and 2 Republicans.  Among the leadership positions on the Board there were 45 Democrats and 1 Republican.  Its research is increasingly about “climate change” and “diversity, equity, and inclusion,” the latest deceptive euphemism for socialism.

It’s time to end the Fed.

First Battle of Trump’s Second Term

McConnell resigned last week as Senate Minority Leader. This forces a vote in the current Senate. The winner is very likely to be the Senate Majority Leader in January. DC RINOs are pushing Thune or Cornyn as Minority Leader, and wanted to do a secret vote. Trump is pushing Scott for Minority Leader.

Thune and Cornyn are neocons on foreign policy and have been openly hostile to Trump in the past. By Ron Paul standards, Scott is rather average. But Scott has promised to expedite Trump’s appointments to the Cabinet, including recess appointments.

It looked like the DC RINOs would do an end run, as early vote projections showed Scott in third place. But now Thune is dropping out and supporting Scott!

The MAGA/MAHA movement is still alive at the grassroots. We are demanding our Senators support Scott and run an open vote for Senate Minority Leader. Let’s know who is supporting the Trump reform efforts and who needs immediate removal at the next primary opportunity.

Veterans Will Eat Good and Cheap Today

If you are a veteran, I hope you will take advantage of all the free or discounted food offers from restaurants today because of Veterans Day. I have already started receiving texts and emails from restaurants, not because I am a veteran, but because they have my contact information. It is too bad that restaurants don’t honor those who actually do something productive for society like garbage collectors, plumbers, mechanics, and landscapers.

I don’t have a Veterans Day article this year, but nothing has changed since I wrote this one last year so you can reread it to understand why we should not celebrate veterans.

Armistice Day: Its True Meaning and Consequence

Veterans Day was originally called Armistice Day to commemorate that at 11:00 0’Clock on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 a formal armistice was concluded ending hostilities of the greatest conflagration and brutal warfare in world history up to that point. This grim sardonic poem, Aftermath, captures the senseless tragedy and banal futility of that conflict.

Aftermath, By Siegfried Sassoon

Have you forgotten yet?…

For the world’s events have rumbled on since those gagged days,

Like traffic checked a while at the crossing of city ways:

But the past is just the same—and War’s a bloody game…

Have you forgotten yet?…

Look down, and swear by the slain of the War that you’ll never forget.

Do you remember the dark months you held the sector at Mametz—

The nights you watched and wired and dug and piled sandbags on parapets?

Do you remember the rats; and the stench

Of corpses rotting in front of the front-line trench—

And dawn coming, dirty-white, and chill with a hopeless rain?

Do you ever stop and ask, ‘Is it all going to happen again?’

Do you remember that hour of din before the attack—

And the anger, the blind compassion that seized and shook you then

As you peered at the doomed and haggard faces of your men?

Do you remember the stretcher-cases lurching back

With dying eyes and lolling heads—those ashen-gray

Masks of the lads who once were keen and kind and gay?

Have you forgotten yet?…

Look up, and swear by the green of the spring that you’ll never forget.

“There Appears to be a Cancer in the Pentagon with Sedition on its Mind.”

“There Appears to be a Cancer in the Pentagon with Sedition on its Mind.”

If this story of a cabal of Pentagon officials meeting to undermine the incoming constitutional commander-in-chief of the U.S. military had been a rumor circulating on X or I’d received in an email from some random source, I would have discounted it. But that’s not the case; it comes from CNN. This suggests that something is deeply wrong in the Pentagon—the same Pentagon that “forgot” to send absentee ballots to U.S. troops serving overseas, a gross violation of their civil rights, and one that ought to result in courts-martial all the way up to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.

According to CNN, Pentagon officials are trying to figure out how to block any orders Donald Trump might issue to protect the Southern border or remove from U.S. soil the millions of unvetted illegal aliens currently occupying the U.S.:

Pentagon officials are holding informal discussions about how the Department of Defense would respond if Donald Trump issues orders to deploy active-duty troops domestically and fire large swaths of apolitical staffers, defense officials told CNN.

Trump has suggested he would be open to using active-duty forces for domestic law enforcement and mass deportations and has indicated he wants to stack the federal government with loyalists and “clean out corrupt actors” in the US national security establishment.

Trump in his last term had a fraught relationship with much of his senior military leadership, including now-retired Gen. Mark Milley who took steps to limit Trump’s ability to use nuclear weapons while he was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The president-elect, meanwhile, has repeatedly called US military generals “woke,” “weak” and “ineffective leaders.”

Officials are now gaming out various scenarios as they prepare for an overhaul of the Pentagon.

“We are all preparing and planning for the worst-case scenario, but the reality is that we don’t know how this is going to play out yet,” one defense official said.

Trump’s election has also raised questions inside the Pentagon about what would happen if the president issued an unlawful order, particularly if his political appointees inside the department don’t push back.

First, it’s clearly within the federal government’s purview to protect the American border from foreign invasions, whether terrorists, cartels, or the economic refugees amongst whom they hide. That means the president has the authority to order troops to the border. If people in the Pentagon conspire to refuse that order, in the best case, it’s a seditious conspiracy to undermine the president’s constitutional authority. In the worst case, it’s treason. And in any case, if they’re military, that would begin with a court martial.

Second, the president clearly has the constitutional authority to protect Americans on American soil from invaders who have already breached the border. The punishment for obstructive Pentagon officials would range from courts-martial to trials for seditious conspiracy or treason.

Third, the president has the authority under the Enforcement Acts to send troops to hot spots on American soil if there is unrest that is depriving citizens of their civil rights. In addition, even the Posse Comitatus Act, which limits the federal government’s power to use the military on American soil to enforce domestic policies, has several compelling exceptions.

For example, the Insurrection Act allows the president to deploy troops to suppress civil disorder, insurrection, or rebellion. The Attorney General also has the authority to request that the Secretary of Defense provide emergency assistance to ineffective domestic local law enforcement.

Nor is any of the above airy-fairy theory. In the past seven decades, presidents have often called in the military:

  • 1957: Dwight D. Eisenhower sent the Army’s 101st Airborne Division to desegregate Little Rock’s schools.
  • 1962: JFK federalized Alabama’s National Guard to force Gov. George Wallace to admit two African-American students to the University of Alabama.
  • 1965: LBJ used Alabama’s federalized National Guard to quell the Bloody Sunday protests in Montgomery, Alabama.
  • 1967: LBJ called in the Army and National Guard to quell the Detroit riots.
  • 1968: After MLK, Jr. was assassinated, Chicago’s Mayor Richard Daley approved calling in the Army when riots broke out. In D.C., 13,600 troops occupied the city to quell riots. National Guard troops were also deployed across Baltimore.
  • 1970: Richard Nixon called the National Guard to New York City after U.S. postal workers went on strike.
  • 1989: After Hurricane Hugo struck the U.S. Virgin Islands, George H. W. Bush called in the National Guard to stop looting.
  • 1992: Reserve soldiers headed to Los Angeles after the Rodney King verdict sparked rioting.
  • 2021: The National Guard occupied D.C. for Joe Biden’s inauguration.

For a president to quell civil unrest is normal. And for a president to use the military as needed to oust invaders from American soil is common sense. If anyone in the Pentagon blocks the president from doing so…back to those courts-martial, and sedition and treason trials.

The bottom line is that what is allegedly happening within the Pentagon—something that was obviously an authorized leak to a friendly outlet; i.e., CNN—represents the complete breakdown of our non-partisan constitutional military, one that the Founders established to be controlled not by a cabal of officers but by a president whom the American people elect.

When President Trump cleans out the Augean stables of D.C., what’s happening in the Pentagon had better be among the top ten items on his list.

The Fall of the Wall: Jeans as a Symbol of Freedom in Eastern Europe

Thirty-five years ago, I can remember going to a little roadside shed where I sold my old worn-out Levi 501 jeans for quite a sizable sum in order to be sent off to Eastern Europe.

The Fall of the Wall: Jeans as a Symbol of Freedom in Eastern Europe (Updated Article)

Unzipped Staff
Levi Strauss & Co.

This Saturday marks the 35th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the opening up of eastern Europe. The images from that time are full of cultural symbolism, and the most iconic image of all demonstrates how a piece of clothing can represent freedom and independence.

It is the blue jean, of course. But before Berlin, we have to go back a century to discover how this happened.

It started with the cowboy. From the early twentieth century, when novels began to feature independent and free-thinking cowpokes, the man on his horse came to symbolize an unbroken spirit. This was translated into movies, where cowboys wore Levi’s® 501® jeans as they ambled among the sagebrush, or battled outlaws who wore black, not blue denim.

Jeans were the uniform of the cowboy for decades, but in the 1950s they were adopted by another, and more edgy independent hero: the motorcycle rebel.

After World War II, a lot of former soldiers hit the road on their motorcycles, wearing Levi’s jeans, tee shirts and leather jackets. They formed motorcycle clubs to enjoy themselves after four years of combat, but their loud and occasionally rowdy entrances into small American towns spawned fear, and gave Hollywood the idea for a new movie genre. Enter “The Wild One,” a 1953 film about Marlon Brando and his motorcycle buddies terrorizing the citizens of the fictitious town of Carbonville, California. Bad boys they may have been, but in their jeans they represented freedom from the restrictive social conventions of post-war America. Think of it this way: a motorcycle is just a horse with two wheels and an engine.

As Europe was being rebuilt, former enemies in Germany and France began to form a different kind of club: the Cowboy Club of Munich, and the Westerners Corral in Paris. Members dressed up in Levi’s 501 jeans, learned how to ride and rope, and spent their time re-living a historical past that their countries never had, but which represented hope and freedom for the war-weary.

In the Soviet Union, sales of Levi’s jeans were banned, despite being made by Russia’s wartime ally. Nevertheless, the Kremlin did authorize a U.S. trade fair, which was held in Moscow in 1959. Levi Strauss & Co. participated, and brought along boxes of jeans. However, the company was not allowed to sell or give away the jeans. This didn’t stop the clever company employees, however. As denim-hungry Russians came by the booth, staff members would casually turn their backs, and the jeans disappeared into purses and bags.

After the Berlin Wall went up in 1961, eastern Europe was closed to nearly every product or influence outside of the Iron Curtain. By this time, Levi’s jeans had become coveted throughout Europe, but only local off-brands were sold in stores on the other side of the wall. In 1965 a young woman from East Germany escaped to the West because her father would not let her wear jeans of any kind. As soon as she received a small stipend at the refugee center in West Berlin, she immediately went out and bought a pair of Levi’s jeans.

When Russia opened up in the early 1990s, the company began to receive letters from young men and women who were able to buy their first pair of real Levi’s jeans. One was Larisa Popik, a 24-year-old teacher, who said that wearing her jeans for the first time made her feel like a 15-year-old schoolgirl:

Unzipped-Larisa Popik letter

When the Berlin Wall finally came down, television viewers around the world saw young people jumping, climbing, pulling down, and sitting on the wall as nearly twenty years of imprisonment came to an end. They also saw a blending of two important symbols: the destruction of what kept people apart, by men and women wearing what brought them together: jeans.

The Berlin Wall Came Down 35 Years Ago Today

The Berlin Wall came down 35 years ago today. Fragments of the famous border still remain today. – CBS News World

The Berlin Wall came down 35 years ago today. Fragments of the famous border still remain today.

Communist East Germany closed its border in Berlin on Aug. 13, 1961, when it erected a wall that eventually turned into an increasingly elaborate fortification snaking through the city and around capitalist West Berlin.

The heavily fortified border —the Berlin Wall— plugged the last gap between East and West.On Nov. 9, 1989, the border was opened, and the Berlin Wall ceremoniously came down as the world watched. It marked the beginning of the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Communist dictatorship in East Germany, paving the way for German reunification in 1990 and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

Most of the wall was torn down quickly after, but 35 years later, there are still places where visitors can see its remains.

What was the Berlin Wall?

The Berlin Wall was built in 1961 and for 28 years, it stood as the front line of the Cold War between the Western world order, led by the U.S., and the Soviets.

East Germany’s leadership had already sealed off the country’s main border with West Germany, which snaked from the Baltic Sea to Czechoslovakia, in 1952.

The 96-mile-long wall was built by the communist regime to cut off East Germany from the supposed ideological contamination of the West and to stem the tide of people fleeing Germany. It cut through the middle of the city center and surrounded West Berlin.

But not even barbed wire and the Wall could stop people from fleeing. The efforts to perfect the border fortifications in Berlin continued until 1989.

President John F. Kennedy’s pledge for freedom

President John F. Kennedy toured West Germany on June 26, 1963. During a speech to a crowd of about 150,000 people in West Berlin, he pledged that the United States would defend the city’s freedom.

“Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free,” he said. “When all are free, then we can look forward to that day when this city will be joined as one, and this country and this great continent of Europe in a peaceful and hopeful globe.”

“When that day finally comes, as it will, the people of West Berlin can take sober satisfaction in the fact that they were in the front lines for almost two decades,” Kennedy added.

Then he closed with his now iconic phrase: “All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin, and, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words, Ich bin ein Berliner.”

“Tear down this wall!”

President Ronald Reagan, commemorating the 750th anniversary of Berlin, spoke at the base of the Brandenburg Gate, near the Berlin Wall, on June 12, 1987. Due to the amplification system being used, Reagan’s words could be heard in East Berlin.

During his address, the American president made the now famous command, “Tear down this wall!,” addressing the Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev.

Reagan’s speech on that day is considered by many to have ushered the beginning of the end of the Cold War, which culminated with the fall of the Soviet Union.

When did the Berlin Wall fall?

In the late 1980s, the power of the Soviet Union began to waver, particularly when Gorbachev became General Secretary of the Communist Party in 1985. He abandoned the Brezhnev Doctrine, a central political principle of Soviet foreign policy that demanded limited sovereignty of the Warsaw Pact nations.

This allowed the Eastern Bloc of states to shift their own foreign policies, and on May 2, 1989, Hungary dismantled its border fence – making the first hole in the “Iron Curtain.”

In East Germany, a growing protest movement and a migration wave to the West forced the dictatorship there to end in 1989. A new travel law mistakenly announced on Nov. 9, 1989, led to an onslaught of people to rush the Berlin Wall.

How did the Berlin Wall fall?

The Bornholmer Strasse crossing in Berlin was the first to open that night. Border guards, who hadn’t received orders to let anyone pass, gave way under pressure from a large crowd demanding to be let through after an off-handed announcement of new regulations by Politburo spokesperson Günter Schabowski.

New border crossings were created, leaving behind large gaps in the Wall. Border soldiers began dismantling fences and other obstacles.

In June 1990, the systematic dismantling of the Wall began, and pieces of the concrete were sold all over the world. Some sections were placed under protection as historical monuments.

The fall of the Berlin Wall paved the way for the unification of Germany on Oct. 3, 1990, less than a year after the border reopened. The demolition of the Wall ended in 1994.

Where can you see sections of the Wall today?

Today, there is a section of Wall slabs with photos and a series of plaques – including an alert sent by the Associated Press’ Germany service – that stands at the former Bornholmer Strasse crossing in Berlin.

The longest section of Wall remaining in Berlin is in the so-called East Side Gallery, where the once-gray concrete slabs are covered with murals that were painted by 118 artists after the opening of the border.

Otherwise, the Wall has largely disappeared now and much of the former “death strip” — between the exterior wall that faced West Berlin and an interior wall that faced the East — has been built over.

Among the exceptions is a strip of the former border at the Bernauer Strasse memorial site in downtown Berlin, and there are fragments dotted around elsewhere in the city and on its edges.

In most cases, the main East-West German border outside Berlin consisted of heavily fortified fences rather than walls. There were a few exceptions, however: most famously in the village of Moedlareuth, divided between Bavaria and the eastern region of Thuringia, which earned the nickname “Little Berlin.” Part of Moedlareuth’s border can still be seen today.

What is Checkpoint Charlie?

One of the most famous – and most visited crossings commemorating the Wall in Berlin – is Checkpoint Charlie.

The historic U.S.-controlled border crossing between the East and West stood for three decades. There, Allied guards registered members of the American, British and French forces before trips to East Berlin, and foreign tourists could find out about their stay there.

In October 1961, it famously became the scene of a tank confrontation between Americans and Soviet forces who took up position and faced each other with weapons primed.

The checkpoint booth was removed on June 22, 1990, about half a year after the wall opened. The original booth is now on display in the Allied Museum in Berlin-Zehlendorf. A photo of former U.S. Army tuba player Seargent Jeff Harper is part of series of photographs hanging nearby the original location commemorating the last Allied soldiers in Berlin in 1994.

What Happened to Those 20 Million Votes?

The Lying Media Scum have reported that Commie-La got 20 million fewer votes than Brandon did.  My guess is that there are two reasons for this.  Many Democrats were disgusted that such a moron and a clown was their nominee and stayed home.  The rest — probably half — are the fraudulent votes that got Brandon elected.

This time the Republicans employed 1600 lawyers at polling places.  They reported that there were hundreds of examples of the Republican election judges showing up and being turned back by the local Demo-Bolshevik party machines that run the elections in many areas.  Their response was to say, “We will be in court in 15 minutes” and that was enough to get them to back off.  None of this happened in 2020.  And since the Teamsters Union did not endorse Commie-La maybe there weren’t as many tractor trailers filled with fraudulent ballots showing up at polling places at three in the morning.

Who’s The Boss? Trump, Powell, or the “Market”?

This week, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell was asked if he would step down if President Trump asked him to resign. Powell answered “No.” The law does not permit the president to fire the Fed chairman. Powell didn’t mention, however, that The Federal Reserve is unconstitutional to begin with. No power was ever granted to the federal government to create a monopoly bank that manipulates interest rates and counterfeits money. So the big issue is not who has more authority over the other; the president or the Fed chairman. The issue is that the Federal Reserve should not exist at all!

The Secession Movement in The Land of Lincoln

Seven Illinois counties voted to explore seceding from Chicago/Cook County and forming a new state — along with twenty-one other Illinois counties that voted to do the same in the 2020 and 2022 elections.

If they follow through, will the Illinois governor follow Lincoln’s example and bomb the seceding counties day and night, set fire to their cities and towns, loot and destroy private homes, look the other way while armies commit gang rape and murder civilians?  Or would he be more like the last head of the Communist party in the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, and let them go in peace?

Jimmy Kimmel Cries Like a Baby on His TV Show After the Election

“It was a bad night for our allies in Ukraine and for NATO,” said the Demo-Bolshevik party hatemonger posing as a “comedian.”  And oh yeah, for everyone else on planet Earth as well according to hysterical, weeping, choked-up Jimmy.  The rest of the late-night TV idiots are even more hilarious with their childish whining and crying over the election.

These people are children.  They never grew up mentally.  Would Johnny Carson or Jay Leno ever have behaved in such an infantile manner?!  Leno always just went ahead and made jokes about whoever won the election.  But then he wasn’t a ruthless communist ideologue and propagandist in disguise.  He and Johnny were professional entertainers, unlike these gloomy, moronic Leftist nutjobs.

Speaking of Jay Leno, he said today that he thought the election was “fair and honest” and “a great day for democracy.”

Can Hypnosis Last for Twenty Years?

As everyone knows, Hillary Clinton blamed her loss in the 2016 election to her theory that, years before that, Vladimir Putin personally hypnotized Donald Trump and instructed him to run for president so that he could be a Russian puppet.  I was reminded of this this morning reading how just about all of the bigshot left-wing windbags like Maddow and Olbermann are now saying that “Russia didn’t want Harris to win.”  I guess they’re assuming that Putin’s hypnosis is still intact.  However, I looked it up and the average hypnosis lasts about 90 seconds.  Hmmm.

The Economic B.S. Begins

There are already articles on the internet quoting investment “experts” saying that Trump will cut taxes and that tax cuts will be “inflationary.”  That implies that tax increases should be deflationary.  Let’s try to figure out how that works.  This is classic Keynesian demand-side thinking, so the argument is that taking say, a billion dollars out of the bank accounts of taxpayers and giving it to government bureaucrats to spend instead will cause deflation even though the amount of total spending is exactly the same.  What is different is WHO is doing the spending, in this case government bureaucrats instead of citizens who earned the money in the first place.  Standard Keynesian superstition holds that “aggregate demand” must increase if the price level is to increase (or be higher than it otherwise would have been), but in this case it is not higher but the same.

I’m beginning to doubt these claims that keeping more of your own hard-earned money harms all of society by causing price inflation and that handing over more of your hard-earned money to politicians and bureaucrats always benefits “society.”

CNN Panel of Lying Media Scum Leftists . . .

. . . all had expressions on their faces like they were waiting in line to be hanged in the morning after Trump was declared the victor.  They just could not believe that Commie-La lost.  She was the almost perfect candidate:  A woman (although incapable of defining “woman”); she is half black; she is amoral; she hates Catholics in particular and religion in general; she is a Berkeley communist; she doesn’t seem to know anything or believe in anything.  Almost perfect.  If she was also a lesbian with advanced dementia she would have been absolutely perfect, not just almost perfect.

The topic of discussion of our esteemed CNN panel was whether it was a mistake to ditch the other almost perfect candidate of the Demo-Bolshevik party, the doddering old child-biting and little-girl-hair-sniffing pervert with advanced dementia who can no longer control his bowels (or his mouth).
