“Newspeak” Is the Future

This article was originally published by Peter Foster at The Mises Institute .
George Orwell pointed out that one of the first casualties of socialism is language .
The damage is not collateral , it is deliberate—designed to numb minds and render critical thought difficult or impossible .
The instrument of this dumbing down in Nineteen Eighty-Four was Newspeak , the official language of the English Socialist Party ( Ingsoc ) .
Newspeak was a sort of totalitarian Esperanto that sought gradually to diminish the range of what was thinkable by eliminating , contracting , and manufacturing words .
New @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and “ were intended to impose a desirable mental attitude upon the person using them.
” The meaning of words was often reversed , as was most starkly emphasized in the key slogans of Ingsoc : Nineteen Eighty-Four was written in 1949 .
Its nightmarish fictional world is now thirty-six years in the past , so one might reasonably conclude that Orwell was far too pessimistic , but his great book was less a prediction than a warning and above all an analysis of the totalitarian mentality .
Meanwhile , there is another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ book ’ s appendix on the principles of Newspeak stressed that the corruption of language was a multigenerational project whose fruition would not come until well into the present century .
Ingsoc ’ s objective was to render independent thought impossible by “ about 2050.
” Intriguingly , that is the same year that the world allegedly has to become “ carbon neutral , ” or “ net-zero , ” to avoid climate Armaggedon .
Twenty fifty has become a key date for the UN ’ s “ global governance ” agenda , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and regulate every aspect of life on the basis of a suite of alarmist projections .
The main existential threat is claimed to be catastrophic manmade climate change .
“ Climate governance ” has thus emerged as the “ fourth pillar , ” of the UN ’ s mandate , joining peace and security , development , and human rights .
So far—as with the other three pillars—the UN ’ s climate efforts have been spectacularly unsuccessful .
It has held enormous “ Conferences of the Parties , ” or COPs , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ policies that have had zero impact on the climate .
COP 21 in Paris in 2015 , for instance , was meant to hatch a successor to the failed Kyoto Agreement .
But all it produced was a raft of hypocritical , voluntary , fingers-crossed “ Nationally Determined Contributions.
” The failure of Paris , and of temperatures to rise in line with flawed models , led to a doubling down of “ ambitions.
” One new commitment that seeped out of Paris was for the countries of the world to hold temperatures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Industrial Revolution ( the Original Climate Sin ) .
Staying below that level , UN policy wonks rapidly calculated , would require the world to become carbon neutral , or net zero , by 2050 .
In fact , there is no climate “ crisis ” or “ emergency.
” However , as Orwell noted , the language of fear and panic is one of the main instruments of political control .
Today , just as in Nineteen Eighty-Four , the classical liberal concepts of liberty and equality ( of opportunity ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the values of reason and objectivity .
Liberty and equality were classified in Newspeak as “ Crimethink.

The great economist and philosopher Friedrich Hayek pointed in particular to the Left ’ s use of “ social.
” He dubbed it a “ weasel word ” that not merely sucked meaning from words to which it was attached but often reversed meaning .
Thus , by classical liberal standards , social democracy is undemocratic , social justice is unjust , and a social market economy is antimarket .
We have a prime current example in the phrase “ social license to operate , ” which in fact means a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ non-governmental organizations ( NGOs ) , the stormtroopers of the global governance agenda .
Private corporations were once socialism ’ s enemies ; now they have been co-opted as its partners , agents of “ global salvationism.
” Nobel economist Milton Freidman pointed to the subversive , open-ended nature of “ corporate social responsibility , ” where “ responsibility ” represents another weasel word .
CSR ’ s purpose is to force corporate executives to abandon their responsibility to their shareholders in favor of an endless list of “ stakeholder ” demands .

It sounds so benign , so reasonable , but what it actually means is “ bureaucratically controlled and NGO-enforced within a UN-based socialist agenda.

There are no dictionaries of sustainable Newspeak .
Its mavens rely less on new words than on perverting or reversing the meaning of old ones .
One recent clarion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ power is that recovery from the covid crisis must be “ resilient.
” Insofar as that means forcing the use of more expensive , less reliable , and less flexible energy sources such as wind and solar , it will inevitably make economies less resilient .
Thus it promotes the first energy “ transition ” in history that involves moving backward .
Typically , such backward movement is a key part of a “ progressive ” agenda .
The indoctrination of young people was a key strategy of Ingsoc .
Likewise , Agenda @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that emerged from the UN ’ s Earth Summit at Rio in 1992 , declared : “ Students should be taught about the environment and sustainable development throughout their schooling.
” They should learn that “ The world is confronted with worsening poverty , hunger , ill-health , illiteracy , and the continuing deterioration of ecosystems on which we depend for our wellbeing.
” In other words , a catalog of alarmism that has—or should have been—utterly discredited by the evidence of the intervening decades .
However , we tend to see what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Walls may have ears but more important is that ears have walls .
Building such walls was the specific purpose of Ingsoc ’ s Crimestop , or “ protective stupidity.
” The capture of academic institutions has virtually installed Crimestop as a compulsory course .
Meanwhile , not only did Agenda 21 demand that children be indoctrinated , it demanded that the most indoctrinated among them be allowed into political fora to lecture their elders .
This program came to stunning fruition last fall at the UN , when Greta Thunberg , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Swedish teenager , was elevated to the podium to paraphrase Agenda 21 : “ People are suffering .
People are dying .
Entire ecosystems are collapsing .
We are at the beginning of a mass extinction , and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth .
How dare you !
” One is reminded of the Newspeak appendix : “ A Party member called upon to make a political or ethical judgment should be able to spray forth the correct opinions as automatically as a machine @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the political establishment ’ s current watchwords of inclusivity , diversity , and equity are all aimed at perverting truth and concealing real meanings .
Inclusivity and diversity involve excluding white men and conservatives of either sex ( although it is a “ thoughtcrime ” to suggest that there are fundamentally two sexes , as J.K. Rowling discovered ) .
Equity falsely equates the inevitable inequality of outcomes in a free society with moral inequity .
Through all of this , the concept of doublethink , that is , effortlessly holding incompatible beliefs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ Doublethink lies at the very heart of Ingsoc , since the essential act of the Party is to use conscious deception while retaining the firmness of purpose that goes with complete honesty.
” Keep that in mind the next time a public figure cites the climate emergency , intones the existential necessity of sustainable development and sustainable finance , and trumpets the job-creating benefits of a resilient recovery and a transformative green transition to a net-zero future .

WAR IS PEACE FREEDOM IS SLAVERY IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
Nineteen Eighty-Four was written in 1949. Its nightmarish fictional world is now thirty-six years in the past, so one might reasonably conclude that Orwell was far too pessimistic, but his great book was less a prediction than a warning and above all an analysis of the totalitarian mentality. Meanwhile, there is another significant date in Nineteen Eighty-Four. The book’s appendix on the principles of Newspeak stressed that the corruption of language was a multigenerational project whose fruition would not come until well into the present century. Ingsoc’s objective was to render independent thought impossible by “about 2050.”
Intriguingly, that is the same year that the world allegedly has to become “carbon neutral,” or “net-zero,” to avoid climate Armaggedon.
Twenty fifty has become a key date for the UN’s “global governance” agenda, which seeks nothing less than to oversee and regulate every aspect of life on the basis of a suite of alarmist projections. The main existential threat is claimed to be catastrophic manmade climate change. “Climate governance” has thus emerged as the “fourth pillar,” of the UN’s mandate, joining peace and security, development, and human rights. So far—as with the other three pillars—the UN’s climate efforts have been spectacularly unsuccessful. It has held enormous “Conferences of the Parties,” or COPs, which have promoted a morass of uncoordinated national policies that have had zero impact on the climate. COP 21 in Paris in 2015, for instance, was meant to hatch a successor to the failed Kyoto Agreement. But all it produced was a raft of hypocritical, voluntary, fingers-crossed “Nationally Determined Contributions.” The failure of Paris, and of temperatures to rise in line with flawed models, led to a doubling down of “ambitions.” One new commitment that seeped out of Paris was for the countries of the world to hold temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius above levels before the Industrial Revolution (the Original Climate Sin). Staying below that level, UN policy wonks rapidly calculated, would require the world to become carbon neutral, or net zero, by 2050.
In fact, there is no climate “crisis” or “emergency.” However, as Orwell noted, the language of fear and panic is one of the main instruments of political control.
Today, just as in Nineteen Eighty-Four, the classical liberal concepts of liberty and equality (of opportunity) are under relentless attack, as are the values of reason and objectivity.

Orwell was hardly the first observer to point to the political dangers of linguistic manipulation, which go back to discussions of sophistry in Plato. The great economist and philosopher Friedrich Hayek pointed in particular to the Left’s use of “social.” He dubbed it a “weasel word” that not merely sucked meaning from words to which it was attached but often reversed meaning. Thus, by classical liberal standards, social democracy is undemocratic, social justice is unjust, and a social market economy is antimarket. We have a prime current example in the phrase “social license to operate,” which in fact means a potential veto on corporate activities by radical non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the stormtroopers of the global governance agenda. Private corporations were once socialism’s enemies; now they have been co-opted as its partners, agents of “global salvationism.” Nobel economist Milton Freidman pointed to the subversive, open-ended nature of “corporate social responsibility,” where “responsibility” represents another weasel word. CSR’s purpose is to force corporate executives to abandon their responsibility to their shareholders in favor of an endless list of “stakeholder” demands.
Perhaps the most significant new weasel word to have emerged from the UN’s equivalent of the Ministry of Truth is “sustainable.” Commitment to sustainability is now mouthed by every politician, bureaucrat, marketing executive, and media hack on earth. It sounds so benign, so reasonable, but what it actually means is “bureaucratically controlled and NGO-enforced within a UN-based socialist agenda.”
Like “social,” “sustainable” tends to vitiate or reverse the meaning of words to which it is attached. Thus sustainable development is development retarded by top-down control and whose effectiveness is further compromised by the insertion of a long list of cart-before-the-horse social policy objectives, from gender equity to “responsible consumption.”
Recently, “sustainable finance” has also bubbled up from the UN verbal swamp. What it means, not surprisingly, is stopping the financing of fossil fuels by browbeating banks and investors and rigging the regulatory process.
There are no dictionaries of sustainable Newspeak. Its mavens rely less on new words than on perverting or reversing the meaning of old ones. One recent clarion call heard echoing around the corridors of power is that recovery from the covid crisis must be “resilient.” Insofar as that means forcing the use of more expensive, less reliable, and less flexible energy sources such as wind and solar, it will inevitably make economies less resilient. Thus it promotes the first energy “transition” in history that involves moving backward. Typically, such backward movement is a key part of a “progressive” agenda.
The indoctrination of young people was a key strategy of Ingsoc. Likewise, Agenda 21, the doorstop socialist wish list that emerged from the UN’s Earth Summit at Rio in 1992, declared: “Students should be taught about the environment and sustainable development throughout their schooling.” They should learn that “The world is confronted with worsening poverty, hunger, ill-health, illiteracy, and the continuing deterioration of ecosystems on which we depend for our wellbeing.” In other words, a catalog of alarmism that has—or should have been—utterly discredited by the evidence of the intervening decades. However, we tend to see what we have been taught to believe. Walls may have ears but more important is that ears have walls. Building such walls was the specific purpose of Ingsoc’s Crimestop, or “protective stupidity.” The capture of academic institutions has virtually installed Crimestop as a compulsory course.
Meanwhile, not only did Agenda 21 demand that children be indoctrinated, it demanded that the most indoctrinated among them be allowed into political fora to lecture their elders. This program came to stunning fruition last fall at the UN, when Greta Thunberg, a bright, anxious, and thoroughly indoctrinated Swedish teenager, was elevated to the podium to paraphrase Agenda 21: “People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are at the beginning of a mass extinction, and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. How dare you!”
One is reminded of the Newspeak appendix: “A Party member called upon to make a political or ethical judgment should be able to spray forth the correct opinions as automatically as a machine gun spraying forth bullets.”
Meanwhile, the political establishment’s current watchwords of inclusivity, diversity, and equity are all aimed at perverting truth and concealing real meanings. Inclusivity and diversity involve excluding white men and conservatives of either sex (although it is a “thoughtcrime” to suggest that there are fundamentally two sexes, as J.K. Rowling discovered). Equity falsely equates the inevitable inequality of outcomes in a free society with moral inequity.
Through all of this, the concept of doublethink, that is, effortlessly holding incompatible beliefs, spreads apace. Orwell wrote that “Doublethink lies at the very heart of Ingsoc, since the essential act of the Party is to use conscious deception while retaining the firmness of purpose that goes with complete honesty.”
Keep that in mind the next time a public figure cites the climate emergency, intones the existential necessity of sustainable development and sustainable finance, and trumpets the job-creating benefits of a resilient recovery and a transformative green transition to a net-zero future.

shtfplan--2020-12-11--The Stage Has Been Set For An Epic Battle Between Red States And Blue States At The Supreme Court

Michael Snyder December 11th , 2020 The End Of The American Dream This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog .
We have never seen anything like Texas v. Pennsylvania in the history of the Supreme Court .
A very large group of red states has lined up behind Texas , and a very large group of blue states is backing the other side .
I can not recall another Supreme Court case in which so many states have sought to be involved on some level , and so to me , it would be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to slap this suit away as if it was insignificant .
The U.S. Constitution gives the Supreme Court original jurisdiction over controversies between states , and so if the Supreme Court is not willing to properly deal with the grievances that the red states have there is no other place for them to go .
I believe that the Supreme Court is going to handle this case with the seriousness that it deserves , and that means that we are about to witness an absolutely epic legal battle between red states and blue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ published yesterday , I explained that the Court had required the states of Pennsylvania , Michigan , Wisconsin and Georgia to file their responses by Thursday at 3 PM , and that is precisely what happened .
But a whole bunch of other parties decided to get involved in this case as well .
The following are all of the updates that were posted on the Supreme Court website on Thursday alone… Motion of State of Ohio for leave to file amicus brief not accepted for filing .
( December 10 , 2020 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Response to motion for leave to file bill of complaint and motion for preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order or stay from defendant Wisconsin filed .
Opposition to Texas ’ s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint and its motion for preliminary relief from defendant Georgia filed .
Opposition to motions for leave to file a bill of complaint and for injunctive relief from defendant Michigan filed .
Opposition to motion for leave to file a bill of complaint and motion for a preliminary injunction , temporary restraining order , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Motion for leave to file amicus brief from the District of Columbia on behalf of 22 States and Territories filed .
Motion to Intervene and Proposed Bill of Complaint in Intervention of State of Missouri submitted .
Motion of State of Ohio for leave to file amicus brief submitted .
Motion for Leave to File Brief as Amicus Curiae and Brief for Members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly .
as Amicus Curiae in Support of Plaintiff/Defendants of Members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly submitted .
Motion of Certain Select Pennsylvania State Senators for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Motion of Christian Family Coalition for leave to file amicus brief submitted .
Amicus brief of Bryan Cutler Speaker of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and Kerry Benninghoff Majority Leader of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives submitted .
For Leave to File Complaint-in-Intervention of Ron Heuer , et al .
submitted .
Motion of U.S. Representative Mike Johnson and 105 Other Members for leave to file amicus brief submitted .
Motion of Lieutenant Governor Janice McGeachin , Senator Lora Reinbold , Representative David Eastment , et al .
( Elected State Officials ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Amicus brief of City of Detroit submitted .
Motion for Leave to File and Amicus Curiae Brief of Justice and Freedom Fund in Support of Plaintiff of Justice and Freedom Fund in Support of Plaintiff submitted .
Complaint in Intervention of Ron Heuer , et al .

Amicus brief of Ga. state Sen. William Ligon et al .
submitted .
Motion of L. Lin Wood for leave to file amicus brief submitted .
Motion of Steve Bullock , in his official capacity as Governor of Montana for leave to file @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seen a flurry of activity like this for any other Supreme Court case .
As you look over that list , you will see that there are all sorts of big names on there , and nearly all states are represented in at least some capacity .
But there is one huge name that is completely missing .
For some reason , Joe Biden has decided not to be involved in this case at all .
I think that Joe Biden ’ s lawyers are telling him that it would give the case @ @ @ @ @ @ @ don ’ t want to do that .
But to me , this is a major tactical mistake on their part .
If Texas wins this case , Joe Biden will probably not be the one sitting in the Oval Office for the next four years .
With so much on the line , if I was a presidential candidate I would want to make sure that my interests were being represented properly in this case .
In any event , this case is moving forward , and the outcome will make history @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Needless to say , Pennsylvania , Michigan , Wisconsin and Georgia are very upset about the suit that Texas has filed .
In fact , Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro went so far as to call the suit a “ seditious abuse of the judicial process ” … Of course that is a bunch of nonsense .
As I detailed yesterday , Texas is alleging very serious violations of the Electors Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment in all four states , and the evidence clearly shows that those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pennsylvania , Michigan , Wisconsin , and Georgia would have us believe that Texas and other red states were not harmed by these constitutional violations , and they would have us believe that the Supreme Court could not possibly take any action even if there were constitutional violations because that would “ disenfranchise ” millions of voters .
But it wouldn ’ t disenfranchise those voters if the Court ordered new elections in those four states , and that is what I believe is the appropriate remedy in this case .
I know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I am sticking with it .
On Thursday , the District of Columbia , 20 blue states , the Virgin Islands and Guam filed an amicus brief in support of Pennsylvania , Michigan , Wisconsin and Georgia .
An amicus brief had already been filed by a coalition of red states on Wednesday , and on Thursday six of them actually asked the court to allow them to become co-plaintiffs… Subsequently , 106 Republican members of the House of Representatives filed an amicus brief in support of Texas .
That has got to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Court .
At this point , the Court is essentially boxed into a corner .
If they throw this case aside very quickly , that will cause a massive uproar on the right .
But if they actually allow oral arguments and give this case the attention that it deserves , that will cause a massive uproar on the left .
Whatever they do , about half the country is going to be exceedingly angry .
And if Texas v. Pennsylvania ultimately results in Trump winning the election , we will witness a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nation to the core .
We have reached one of the most critical moments in American history , and the future of our Republic hangs in the balance .
Historically , the Supreme Court likes to try to find an easy way out , and they may be very tempted to try to dispose of this case very quickly .
But that wouldn ’ t solve anything .
I think that it is a very ominous sign that there is so much open animosity between red states and blue states now .
Just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ War , states are picking one side or the other , and talk of secession is starting to pick up steam .
In fact , it was the top headline on the Drudge Report on Thursday morning .
And if the Supreme Court ignores the clear constitutional violations that occurred during this election , that will only make things a lot worse .
As Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton stated in his complaint , either we have a Constitution or we don ’ t .
That is what Texas v. Pennsylvania is really @ @ @ @ @ @ @ days we will have a clear answer to that question .

I believe that the Supreme Court is going to handle this case with the seriousness that it deserves, and that means that we are about to witness an absolutely epic legal battle between red states and blue states.
In an article that I published yesterday, I explained that the Court had required the states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia to file their responses by Thursday at 3 PM, and that is precisely what happened.
But a whole bunch of other parties decided to get involved in this case as well. The following are all of the updates that were posted on the Supreme Court website on Thursday alone…
Motion of State of Ohio for leave to file amicus brief not accepted for filing. (December 10, 2020) (corrected motion electronically filed)
Response to motion for leave to file bill of complaint and motion for preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order or stay from defendant Wisconsin filed.
Opposition to Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint and its motion for preliminary relief from defendant Georgia filed.
Opposition to motions for leave to file a bill of complaint and for injunctive relief from defendant Michigan filed.
Opposition to motion for leave to file a bill of complaint and motion for a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, or stay from defendant Pennsylvania filed.
Motion for leave to file amicus brief from the District of Columbia on behalf of 22 States and Territories filed.
Motion to Intervene and Proposed Bill of Complaint in Intervention of State of Missouri submitted.
Motion of State of Ohio for leave to file amicus brief submitted.
Motion for Leave to File Brief as Amicus Curiae and Brief for Members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly. as Amicus Curiae in Support of Plaintiff/Defendants of Members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly submitted.
Motion of Certain Select Pennsylvania State Senators for leave to file amicus brief submitted.
Motion of Christian Family Coalition for leave to file amicus brief submitted.
Amicus brief of Bryan Cutler Speaker of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and Kerry Benninghoff Majority Leader of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives submitted.
For Leave to File Complaint-in-Intervention of Ron Heuer, et al. submitted.
Motion of U.S. Representative Mike Johnson and 105 Other Members for leave to file amicus brief submitted.
Motion of Lieutenant Governor Janice McGeachin, Senator Lora Reinbold, Representative David Eastment, et al. (Elected State Officials) for leave to file amicus brief submitted.
Amicus brief of City of Detroit submitted.
Motion for Leave to File and Amicus Curiae Brief of Justice and Freedom Fund in Support of Plaintiff of Justice and Freedom Fund in Support of Plaintiff submitted.
Complaint in Intervention of Ron Heuer, et al. submitted.
Amicus brief of Ga. state Sen. William Ligon et al. submitted.
Motion of L. Lin Wood for leave to file amicus brief submitted.
Motion of Steve Bullock, in his official capacity as Governor of Montana for leave to file amicus brief submitted.
I have never seen a flurry of activity like this for any other Supreme Court case.
As you look over that list, you will see that there are all sorts of big names on there, and nearly all states are represented in at least some capacity.
But there is one huge name that is completely missing.
For some reason, Joe Biden has decided not to be involved in this case at all.
I think that Joe Biden’s lawyers are telling him that it would give the case credibility if they got involved and they don’t want to do that.
But to me, this is a major tactical mistake on their part. If Texas wins this case, Joe Biden will probably not be the one sitting in the Oval Office for the next four years. With so much on the line, if I was a presidential candidate I would want to make sure that my interests were being represented properly in this case.
In any event, this case is moving forward, and the outcome will make history no matter which way it goes.
Needless to say, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia are very upset about the suit that Texas has filed. In fact, Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro went so far as to call the suit a “seditious abuse of the judicial process”…
The Pennsylvania AG’s office described the Texas suit as a crass political maneuver to extend Trump’s term. ‘Texas’s effort to get this Court to pick the next President has no basis in law or fact. The Court should not abide this seditious abuse of the judicial process, and should send a clear and unmistakable signal that such abuse must never be replicated,’ they urged.
Of course that is a bunch of nonsense.
As I detailed yesterday, Texas is alleging very serious violations of the Electors Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment in all four states, and the evidence clearly shows that those constitutional violations did indeed take place.
Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia would have us believe that Texas and other red states were not harmed by these constitutional violations, and they would have us believe that the Supreme Court could not possibly take any action even if there were constitutional violations because that would “disenfranchise” millions of voters.
But it wouldn’t disenfranchise those voters if the Court ordered new elections in those four states, and that is what I believe is the appropriate remedy in this case.
I know that is a minority viewpoint, but I am sticking with it.
On Thursday, the District of Columbia, 20 blue states, the Virgin Islands and Guam filed an amicus brief in support of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia.
An amicus brief had already been filed by a coalition of red states on Wednesday, and on Thursday six of them actually asked the court to allow them to become co-plaintiffs…
Missouri on Wednesday led a group of 17 states in filing a brief that supported the Texas lawsuit, which alleges that the four key swing states that voted for President-elect Joe Biden violated the Constitution by having their judicial and executive branches make changes to their presidential elections rather than their legislatures. But the Thursday filing led by Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, which also includes Arkansas, Utah, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina, would make those states parties before the court in the case rather than just outside voices weighing in. President Trump’s campaign did the same on Wednesday.
Subsequently, 106 Republican members of the House of Representatives filed an amicus brief in support of Texas.
That has got to carry a lot of weight with the Court.
At this point, the Court is essentially boxed into a corner. If they throw this case aside very quickly, that will cause a massive uproar on the right.
But if they actually allow oral arguments and give this case the attention that it deserves, that will cause a massive uproar on the left.
Whatever they do, about half the country is going to be exceedingly angry.
And if Texas v. Pennsylvania ultimately results in Trump winning the election, we will witness a national temper tantrum that will shake our nation to the core.
We have reached one of the most critical moments in American history, and the future of our Republic hangs in the balance.
Historically, the Supreme Court likes to try to find an easy way out, and they may be very tempted to try to dispose of this case very quickly.
But that wouldn’t solve anything. I think that it is a very ominous sign that there is so much open animosity between red states and blue states now. Just like we witnessed prior to the Civil War, states are picking one side or the other, and talk of secession is starting to pick up steam. In fact, it was the top headline on the Drudge Report on Thursday morning.
And if the Supreme Court ignores the clear constitutional violations that occurred during this election, that will only make things a lot worse.
As Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton stated in his complaint, either we have a Constitution or we don’t.
That is what Texas v. Pennsylvania is really all about, and in a few days we will have a clear answer to that question.

shtfplan--2020-12-11--One of the First Executive Orders Biden Will Pass is Gun Control — Will You Comply?

This article was originally published by Matt Agorist at The Free Thought Project .
On Tuesday , Stef Feldman , the national policy director of Joe Biden ’ s presidential campaign , announced in a meeting put on by the Georgetown Institute of Politics and Public Service , that gun control is at the top of Biden ’ s list .
There will be no vote or democratic process , and like Trump and Obama before him , Biden will use Execute Orders to implement his will .
Feldman pointed out that when he gets in the White House , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , bold changes through executive action , not just on policing and climate like we talked about previously , but in healthcare and education , on gun violence , on a range of issues , ” adding , “ there ’ s really a lot you can do through guidance and executive action.
” This statement should come as no surprise as Biden has been an outspoken gun-grabber and on his campaign website , he ’ s stated that he will use executive action to enforce gun control .
On the site , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ action to “ get weapons of war off our streets.
” Calling an AR-style weapon a “ weapon of war ” is laughable given the fact that Biden , under President Obama , aided in the wholesale slaughter of countless innocent civilians in Afghanistan , Iraq , Yemen , Libya , and Somalia — using actual “ weapons of war ” like drone strikes , hellfire missiles , and sanctions .
Nevertheless , the new boss — who is the same as the old boss , contrary to what many believe — plans @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sale of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.
” Biden also plans to force all legal gun owners to register their firearms with the state , or be forced to turn them in , going so far as to issued an ultimatum .
Biden also plans on instituting legislation that will limit how many guns you can purchase .
On top of that , he plans on telling you how you can purchase them by banning the “ sale of firearms , ammunition , kits , and gun parts online.
” Perhaps one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ regard to controlling guns is his push for “ smart gun technology ” that will require biometrics to fire in an ostensible move to “ prevent unauthorized use.
” In reality , however , this paves the way for bad actors , including the state and hackers , to be able to control , hack , or essentially turn off your gun , making it a paperweight .
Biden also plans to pick up where Trump left off in regard to extreme risk laws , also called “ red flag ” laws .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ is similar to the many plans implemented under Trump , family members or law enforcement officials will be able to make claims — many which involve no evidence — allowing a person ’ s guns to be temporarily taken until that person is declared fit enough to get them back .
But would grabbing guns from people deemed a risk by the state actually have any effect on mass violence ?
Not likely , nor would the stronger background checks that Biden is also pushing for .
Stronger background checks would have little @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most of the mass shooters acquire their guns legally and pass the background checks .
As Reason points out : Citizens who are targeted by these laws will be deemed guilty first and only after their guns are taken , will they have a chance to defend themselves in court .
This is the de facto removal of due process .
As Reuters reports , under the legislation , a family member or law enforcement officer could petition a judge to seize firearms from a person they think is a threat to themselves @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hold a hearing without the targeted person being present and grant a temporary order for 14 days .
Under the fifth and fourteenth amendments , due process clauses are in place to act as a safeguard from arbitrary denial of life , liberty , or property by the government outside the sanction of law .
In spite of what officials and the media claim when a person is stripped of their constitutional rights , albeit temporarily , without being given the chance to make their own case based on what can be entirely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of due process .
And , contrary to what Biden wants , it doesn ’ t work .
We ’ ve seen this play out before already .
Last year , a tragedy unfolded in California as a deranged gunman , Kevin Douglas Limbaugh , walked up on an innocent woman , officer Natalie Corona , pulled out his guns and began shooting her repeatedly until she died .
Limbaugh then fired several more shots at others before turning the gun on himself and taking his own life .
Had more people been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ carried out a mass shooting .
Limbaugh ’ s case is important to bring up due to the fact that — before he killed a cop — he was subject to California ’ s “ red flag ” laws in 2018 .
Limbaugh was given a high-risk assessment that ordered him to turn in his registered weapons to police , the only one being a Bushmaster AR-15 .
On November 9 , Limbaugh turned in the weapon .
Despite being banned from possessing a weapon , he still obtained one illegally and used @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not stop those willing to break them .
What ’ s more , there were already laws on the books that should ’ ve stopped Nikolas Cruz , the murdering psychopath in Parkland Fl , from ever getting a gun as well .
But none of them worked .
Citing Cruz as the reason for advocating the erosion of the 2nd Amendment , the anti-gun activists are claiming he should ’ ve had his guns taken which would have prevented the tragedy .
Sadly , however , they are ignoring the fact that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ multiple people—and should ’ ve never been able to purchase a gun in the first place—but law enforcement failed to act on any of it .
These threats included specifically saying he was going to carry out a mass shooting and threatening to kill individual people .
The reactionary nature of disarming law-abiding Americans because deranged psychopaths kill people is dangerous and only serves to keep the guns out of the hands of law-abiding citizens as the above two cases illustrate .
Moreover , as Biden attacks , guns , he is forgetting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ need guns to cause mass death .
According to a 2015 study , even if all guns were removed from America , in a ten year period , 355 people still would ’ ve been murdered in mass killings .
From 2006 to 2015 , 140 people were murdered by arsonists in mass fires , 104 were stabbed in mass stabbings , and 92 people were beaten to death in mass killings .
To reiterate , these are deaths in which four or more people were killed .
“ People sufficiently enraged to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to find other ways , ” criminologist James Alan Fox of Northeastern University points out .
Despite all this information to the contrary , the left led by Biden and the right led by Trump seems hell-bent on further eroding the rights of the 99.9999999 percent of the innocent people who are not murderous psychopaths .
And all of it will be and has been “ legal ” — due process and innocence be damned .

Nevertheless, the new boss — who is the same as the old boss, contrary to what many believe — plans to immediately ban the “manufacture and sale of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.”
Joe Biden will enact legislation to once again ban assault weapons. This time, the bans will be designed based on lessons learned from the 1994 bans. For example, the ban on assault weapons will be designed to prevent manufacturers from circumventing the law by making minor changes that don’t limit the weapon’s lethality. While working to pass this legislation, Biden will also use his executive authority to ban the importation of assault weapons.
Biden also plans to force all legal gun owners to register their firearms with the state, or be forced to turn them in, going so far as to issued an ultimatum.
This will give individuals who now possess assault weapons or high-capacity magazines two options: sell the weapons to the government, or register them under the National Firearms Act.
Biden also plans on instituting legislation that will limit how many guns you can purchase. On top of that, he plans on telling you how you can purchase them by banning the “sale of firearms, ammunition, kits, and gun parts online.”
Perhaps one of Biden’s most ominous moves in regard to controlling guns is his push for “smart gun technology” that will require biometrics to fire in an ostensible move to “prevent unauthorized use.” In reality, however, this paves the way for bad actors, including the state and hackers, to be able to control, hack, or essentially turn off your gun, making it a paperweight.

But would grabbing guns from people deemed a risk by the state actually have any effect on mass violence? Not likely, nor would the stronger background checks that Biden is also pushing for.
Stronger background checks would have little to no effect on mass shootings as most of the mass shooters acquire their guns legally and pass the background checks. As Reason points out:
The elements of that legislation are mostly window dressing that would do little or nothing to prevent attacks like these. The most frequently mentioned policy, “universal background checks,” is plainly irrelevant to these particular crimes, since both the El Paso shooter and the Dayton shooter purchased their weapons legally, meaning they did not have disqualifying criminal or psychiatric records. Nor do the vast majority of mass shooters, who either passed background checks or could have. Neither requiring background checks for private transfers nor creating “strong background checks,” as President Donald Trump has proposed (perhaps referring to the same policy), would make a difference in such cases.
Citizens who are targeted by these laws will be deemed guilty first and only after their guns are taken, will they have a chance to defend themselves in court. This is the de facto removal of due process.
As Reuters reports, under the legislation, a family member or law enforcement officer could petition a judge to seize firearms from a person they think is a threat to themselves or others. The judge could then hold a hearing without the targeted person being present and grant a temporary order for 14 days.

And, contrary to what Biden wants, it doesn’t work.

Even if enough submit to the vaccine , Fauci wants us masked for at least 6 more months .

The masks will never go away until people wake up to what they really are: a symbol of submission to the controllers. Fauci declared that face masks are here to stay unless enough Americans get the coronavirus vaccination, and even then it will take at least six months before the masks can be left behind, according to a report by ZeroHedge.
Speaking to Chris Cuomo, Fauci was asked if the masks could come off, to which he replied “Well, the answer is not unless you get the overwhelming majority of the country vaccinated and protected and get that umbrella of what we call herd immunity.”
Are Face Masks & COVID Rituals Occultist Symbols For Submission?
Joe Biden wants Americans to wear the ritualistic shame muzzles for at least the first 100 days of his presidency.
"We as a nation need to continue to wear the mask, to keep the physical distance, to avoid crowds. We're not through with this just because we're starting a vaccine program." – Dr. Anthony Fauci on protecting against Covid-19 while the vaccine is being distributed pic.twitter.com/pSsLJoybYh — CNN (@CNN) December 11, 2020
Wake up. This is about control. It’s astonishing that people can’t see through this disturbing facade.
“There’s still a lot of virus out there,” Fauci declared, adding “So just because you’re protected, so-called protected by the vaccine, you should need to remember that you could be prevented from getting clinical disease and still have the virus that is in your nasopharynx because you could get infected.”
“But until you have virus that is so low in society we as a nation need to continue to wear the mask, to keep the physical distance, to avoid crowds,” Fauci proclaimed.
They Moved The Goalposts…AGAIN!: “It’s Not Over When The Vaccine Arrives”
New guidance from the World Health Organization (WHO) has also suggested that everyone should be wearing a face mask everywhere indoors at all times, as well as outdoors whenever they cannot keep more than a meter away from others.
This is coming as states and countries around the world ramp up their totalitarian controls over the public to attempt to hang onto whatever power they can grab before people figure out what a hoax this whole scamdemic has turned out to be.

Silver’s price is tied with inflation much more than gold’s is. In the 1970s, as inflation raged in the United States, silver rose to $50/ounce, having started the decade at under $2. It was a sensational decade for the white metal.
However, in the 1980s and 1990s, as deflationary forces brought interest rates down rapidly, the metal’s price languished. Today, its price is HALF of what it was in 1980!
Obviously, investing in silver is NOT similar to investing in gold, which does enjoy a long-term appreciation under both deflationary and inflationary environments.
The question, then, is whether or not there’s a potentially interesting trade setting up in silver now that it has doubled from its March lows.
The answer depends on inflationary pressures and inflationary expectations.
We are seeing that the dollar is dramatically weakening, which is the first sign that silver is likely to enjoy momentum.
Here’s the dollar chart as it stands today:
It doesn’t feel like the trend is swinging, either. This seems to be a long-term structural decline. Even the price of oil is back over $50/barrel.
Silver’s price has already tested $30 this year and has shown that in the first stages of a recovery, however weak it may be, it can surge by triple-digits.
In 2009, for instance, it appreciated from $9 to $49 in two short years.
Again, this is a trade that could be capitalized upon, not a buy-and-hold idea.
The price of silver has directly correlated with the price of oil over the years. With oil surging, this could be a critical bullish catalyst for silver.
In the end, silver is an ideal way of betting on inflation.
The Federal Reserve has done the heavy lifting for us. It arbitrarily mandated 2% inflation as some magical number. This means that the street will be bracing for inflation if the FED measures it as such.
Therefore, the smartest move is to watch that 2% gauge from Powell and his buddies.
In our world, we’re reaching a point that we call the DEBT LIMIT, which is the moment when deflating the currency supply by simply adding more debt is not productive.
This moment will change how investors view inflation.
Be prepared for it and study the topic thoroughly in the meantime.

As 2020 ends, here’s what bulls claim:
Yes, the stock market is expensive and, yes, there’s a strong sentiment that resembles the Dot.Com days, but the world today is not like it was back then, since there are fewer investment alternatives outside of the stock market. Therefore, this market can remain expensive. The unprecedented stimulus of 2020 has not yet been felt. In 2021, this fresh currency supply will flow into Main Street, making the recovery stronger, more inclusive and stocks can actually rally big in 2021. Technology, automation, cloud, IoT, and breakthrough medicine are making the world better, more efficient, and more affordable, which, in turn, makes corporations more valuable.
If you’re not buying that, you’re not alone; there are a few bears left out there, and here’s what they say:
Currency printing has inflated asset prices, at the expense of starving the real economy. It’s causing all sorts of societal mass, the introduction of government dependency, historically-high wealth, and income gaps and it’s an “artificial” economy – a balloon that will pop.

Trucks carrying the new COVID-19 vaccine have left a plant in Michigan .
Pfizer ’ s vaccine was unsurprisingly authorized for use on American citizens and the first person in the United States is likely to be vaccinated today .
The military is rolling this vaccine out under Operation Warp Speed and is expected to deliver an estimated 2.9 million doses this week to hospitals and nursing homes in the first phase of the vaccine rollout .

“ Their historic science-driven effort has delivered a vaccine with the potential to help bring an end to the most devastating pandemic in a century.
” FDA scientists “ feel comfortable ” telling the American @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and get the vaccine unless they have known allergies to other vaccines or the Pfizer vaccine ingredients , Dr. Peter Marks , director of the FDA ’ s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research , said Saturday .
“ About 1.6 percent of the population has had a severe allergic reaction of some sort or another to a food or some environmental aspect , ” Marks said .
“ We would really not like to have that many people not be able to receive the vaccine.
” Does anyone actually believe it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ population that had a severe reaction ?
