Friends, I don't like to get ahead of myself, but it sure looks as though some pretty damaging evidence is starting to emerge that, at the very least, Hunter Biden sought to monetize his father's political influence by claiming that Dad was in on the grift. Since Hunter and dearest Papa spend a lot of time together, it's getting harder and harder to believe that Joe Biden was oblivious to all this, especially since we've got direct evidence to the contrary. Now, the mainstream media has ignored and/or dismissed all this up to now, and there's no particular reason why they would ever change course (the news is what they make of it), but where things could get interesting is if some of Biden's fellow Dems start to smell blood in the water and go in for the kill. Don't think they won't do it either, if they believe their interests are best served by giving Sleepy Joe the heave-ho, and if they think they can get away with it.
This is one of several scintillating topics that Brian and I discuss on this week's Newsmaker Show. We also cover the extraordinary events in Russia recently and what they portend for U.S. foreign policy and world peace, the media vendetta against RFK, Jr., and the monumental SCOTUS decision allowing state supreme courts to interfere in election redistricting.
When we get to "This Day in History", Brian and I cover the Stonewall Riots and how far the LGBTQ community has come in winning not just acceptance for itself, but cultural domination. We also talk about Charles de Gaulle and the "Free French", the vindication of "Vietnamization" in 1972, and the sober and prophetic warnings of John Maynard Keynes in 1919.
Holy moly! Can you imagine covering that much material in just 20 minutes? Beggars belief, does it not???

Excellent post Dr. Waddy. Agreed, Once the main stream media's White House correspondents are allowed by their bosses to ask legitimate, probing questions - and - print the obvious conclusions on this criminal activity, we'll know it's over.
ReplyDeleteQueuing up the Baha Men might be appropriate "Who let the dogs out!"
Dr.Waddy from Jack Re the broadcast , to which my device deigned to allow me access: RFK Jr.: his speaking is difficult to hear; his voice is quite impaired. No "New Frontier" inaugural heralding Camelot to be expected.
ReplyDeleteDr Waddy from Jack: Re: the French resistance: I was much educated by your comments. I had not considered that there were French who saw the occupation as an opportunity for action against groups toward whom they shared Nazi antipathy. And I was intrigued by your vi ew that the Resistance derived much motivation from the Nazi onslaught on a Soviet Union with which they sympathized ideologically. I learned only recently how close France may have been to civil war after their liberation. Perhaps DeGaulle helped save France from cursed marxism?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Richie! From what I hear, the MSM is just starting to get wind of this whole Biden family grift, and they're just starting to ask questions about it, which makes Joe himself very irate. He's used to a great deal more deference, needless to say. These are early days, though, and it remains to be seen if the anti-Biden forces on the Left will rouse themselves fully.
ReplyDeleteJack: that's awesome that you were able to access the broadcast! See, most technical problems magically fix themselves...
I agree about RFK's speaking voice. It's a major liability. Of course, the media's disdain is a much bigger liability. He won't get a fair hearing on any major network, and he won't be allowed to utilize much of social media either. (You can bet your bottom dollar he won't raise much money, in addition.)
Jack, I'm no expert on Vichy, but Petain was a popular leader and there were strong forces in France that wanted to conciliate Germany, for sure. You can hardly blame them. It must have seemed like a long shot that Britain or the Americans would come and rescue them from Hitler's "New Order". Plus, fascism held a lot of allure for millions of Europeans. It seemed like the best bulwark against Marxism. And yes, the Resistance was almost entirely theoretical before Barbarossa. Not a single German occupier was killed until August 1941. That tells me everything I need to know.
Dr.Waddy from Jack: I was on a carrier in theTonkin Gulf during the Spring'72 offensive. They cleaned us out of the bars in Yokosuka and sent us right back to the line when we thought we were going back to the states.Normally there were three carriers out there; soon there were seven - alot of firepower. Me,I thought I was in for WWIII. Didn't know that Nixon gave the draftees a play on Vietnam.Your reasoning on that is very sound. By '75 there was no political will to go back. The antiamericans got their wishs: they trashed military and veteran morale and assured the ascension of a typically inhuman marxist regime from which they were far removed from its depravity. Too bad; the experience of commie "reeducation"would have been a real trip man although protests would have met a far different and summary response.
ReplyDeleteDr.Waddy from Jack: Last night I discussed your views on the French resistance with one who studied in Paris in the70s and who roomed with a survivor of the resistance for whom the Germans are forever le boche! He said your views have merit and he agrees to a considerable extent. Perhaps its too bad the Romans were unable to conquer the Germans and have the civilizing effect on them that they did have on the blue painted Brits; or if Charlemagne had practiced primogeniture and disallowed a separate Kingdom of Germany. The refining culture of France might have smoothed the hard, hard traits which moved the Germans to the eventual evil they manifested.
ReplyDeleteJack, I bet the events of 1972 seemed portentous, from your perspective! A quick peek at the records indicates that the U.S. lost 759 men in Vietnam in 1972, compared to almost 17,000 in the worst year (1968). I guess even 759 fatalities was too high a price to pay, for some Americans. Of course, in Ukraine, we've decided that 1 would be too high a price to pay. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose?
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be too hard on "the Germans". It's hard to generalize about them. Maybe the Prussians were a cantankerous lot, but many Germans were just along for the ride and would rather have been home drinking beer.
Dr.Waddy from Jack: Please translate the sentence starting "Plus". I am a Philistine.
ReplyDeleteJack, you are anything but a Philistine! If you are a Philistine, you're the Coupe de Ville of Philistines...
ReplyDeleteIt means: "the more things change, the more they stay the same".
