In George Orwell’s masterpiece 1984, he said, “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
不定式状语To guide you along this path, I bring to your attention implausible things you are expected to believe this week.
1. Things that are not graft.
Outrageously generous book deals to present and former officials.
The Obamas’ $65 million book advances still lead the way to the most lavish, though the notion 同位语从句that even Democrat politicians’ relatives, like Chelsea Clinton, would offer ghostwritten pap worth anything is something 定语从句you just have to believe.
Generous speaking fees.
The $25 million 定语从句the Clintons garnered for just six months of speeches in 2014 and 2015, you must regard not as bribes for access and influence, but as well-earned compensation for minutes 形容词结构定语worth of pearls of wisdom. Not just former presidents and would-be presidents are the recipients of such largesse. Janet Yellen, the Biden pick for Secretary of the Treasury, for example, raked in $7.2 million in speaking fees from Wall Street and large corporations like Citi, Goldman Sachs, Google, City National Bank, UBS, Citadel LLC, Barclays, and Credit Suisse. The Great Iggy (an online friend) must be in error 状语从句when he questions these fees:
These fees are for what? Some pointless stupid boilerplate speech 定语从句that does not and cannot, in itself, contain anything of value to the payers. So its value is in the form of access and influence only; 定语从句which used to be called graft and influence peddling.
Charitable Shakedowns.
You must ignore the suggestion 同位语从句that plea bargains定语从句 in which the government gives a settlement payment to a bureaucrat’s favorite nonprofit constitutes anything unethical. Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions halted this practice. 状语从句If the new administration reverses this ban, avert your eyes from bad thinking. 状语从句If the government claims a corporation ripped off yourself and fellow citizens illegally, you should be grateful形容词补语 they have to pay up to the agency head’s alumni association or some left-wing advocacy outfit. Why should you be compensated for the harm 分词定语done to you? And from the viewpoint of the defendant, why not grease the palms of the prosecution’s favorites with some small amount rather than go through the expense and aggravation of defending?
Congressional Stock Trading
状语从句If you believed 宾语从句Hillary Clinton made so much money 分词状语investing shrewdly in cattle futures and not out of some manipulation, you will certainly agree 宾语从句that 主语speaker Nancy Pelosi’s $1 million investment in Tesla stock call options shortly 状语从句before the Biden administration announced it planned to make the federal automobile fleet (645,000 cars) electric was just another example of stock trading genius by a high-ranking politician.
There’s certainly no graft in providing lucrative deals for politicians’ families.
Ignore Hunter Biden’s deals with Ukraine and China and Joe’s brother James, 定语从句“who took out $650,000 in personal loans from a company 定语从句that bankrupted local hospitals 分词状语while trading on his brother’s name and connections to the campaign.” Or his brother Frank’s farming for clients for the law firm 定语出价he’s connected with advertising with the not too subtle hint of access.
2. You can Trust Dr. Fauci
Governor Andrew Cuomo’s handling of the China Virus was appropriate 状语从句even though he placed the virus carriers in nursing homes and ignored the presence of the USNS Solace, the Javits Center, and Samaritan’s Purse hospitals 定语从句which were fully staffed and ready to assist.
Dr. Fauci was right to praise him. Ignore the New York Attorney General Letitia James, 定语从句who investigated and announced this week宾语从句 that the Cuomo administration failed to report thousands of COVID-19 deaths of nursing home residents after forcing these homes to admit COVID-19 patients. And you know 宾语从句you can ignore James’s report and credit Dr. Fauci’s praisee of Cuomo’s performance 状语从句because Joe Biden said 宾语从句“Dr. Fauci isn’t just one of our foremost experts on combating viruses — he is a good man and a tireless public servant…. Our administration, and our country, will be stronger because of his guidance.”
Dr. Fauci is one of our foremost experts on combating viruses and is totally nonpartisan. Ignore his waffling and misstatements.
This is the man who dictated coronavirus policy in the Trump administration. 状语从句If mistakes were made, 状语从句as the Biden administration claims, they are Fauci’s. Yet, astonishingly, Fauci told CNN Friday 宾语从句that a “lack of candor” from the Trump administration had cost American lives. 状语从句If people’s lives really were at stake last year, why did he wait 状语从句until now to tell us? Chalk it up to another convenient fib from a habitual fibber, 定语从句who has deceived us on everything from masks to herd immunity. 状语从句Even if you decide these are not lies but lapses of judgment by Fauci, they had potentially lethal consequences. Take, for instance, Fauci’s serenity back on January 21 last year, 定语从句when he assured us 宾语从句that the virus 分词定语convulsing China at the time “is not a major threat for the people of the United States and this is not something 定语从句the citizens of the United States right now should be worried about.” [snip] The following week, he was at it again, vehemently opposing President Donald Trump’s proposed flight ban from China, 定语从句which Biden at the time decried as “xenophobia.” [snip] Then there was Fauci’s advice on masks. Back in March, 定语从句when the coronavirus was decimating New York, he told us 宾语从句masks were useless. “Right now in the United States, people should not be walking around with masks,” he told “60 Minutes.” Three months later, he did a backflip: “Masks work... to prevent you from infecting someone else... but also, it can protect you to a certain degree.” [snip] Turns out he lied about herd immunity, too. In December, Fauci admitted to the New York Times 宾语从句that he had “slowly but deliberately been moving the goal posts” on the percentage of the population 定语从句that needed to be vaccinated before “herd immunity” against COVID-19 was reached. “状语从句When polls said only about half of all Americans would take a vaccine, I was saying herd immunity would take 70 to 75 percent. Then, 状语从句when newer surveys said 宾语从句60 percent or more would take it, I thought, ‘I can nudge this up a bit,’ so I went to 80, 85,” he said. Fauci is not precise with numbers, 定语从句which is odd for a scientist 定语从句who professes to care about facts. For instance, on Biden’s first day last week, Fauci said 宾语从句we would have “100 million people vaccinated in the first 100 days” and specified 宾语从句he meant both “primary and boost” shots, a total of 200 million shots in arms. On Sunday, he was forced to “clarify that, 状语从句because there was a little bit of a misunderstanding. 主语从句What we’re talking about is 100 million shots in individuals.” The 100 million goal is fake anyway, 状语从句since we’re already there. In the week before the inauguration, 912,000 shots were administered per day, according to Bloomberg News’ tracker. On Inauguration Day, it was 1.6 million shots.
Disregard the Media’s covering up for Both Cuomo and Fauci.
Janice Dean, 定语从句who lost family members in the New York nursing home mismanagement, must not be listened to. Trust Lester Holt to fairly report.
You should trust Holt to provide a clear account and not bloggers like Yaacov Aplebaum 定语从句who nailed Cuomo’s horrid nursing home policies last May.
3. All the White House efforts on the China virus are based on sound science, not politics
So when the White House calls for Florida restaurants and bars to close their doors, contrary to Governor Ron DeSantis’ directives to stay open, you must ignore Richard Grenell’s criticism of Governor Gavin Newsom and its application to the White House plan for Florida. Logic is now banned thinking.
I’m 79 years old, and all the protocols indicate 宾语从句I should be among the first eligible for the vaccine. 状语从句Although my D.C. ward (3) is mostly white and rich and taxpaying, too many of its residents want the vaccine, so it’s going first to wards 定语从句where people have been most affected by the virus (and are in significant numbers still refusing to take it). 分词状语Having registered at numerous sites, it’s still unavailable to me. On the other hand,状语从句 if I had been a participant in terrorism against the U.S. like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and others 分词定语locked up in Guantanamo Bay, I would be scheduled to get it ahead of most Americans (until backlash compelled them to “pause” that plan). Don’t ask. Don’t question. Surely our leader has good reasons behind this.
4. Show trial and Impeachments are the Way to Unity
Daniel Greenfield explains, for those 定语从句who are slow learners. Questioning an election is now sedition and incitement. A Capitol 分词定语wrapped in barbed wire and with streets 宾补filled with National Guardsmen is not using a fake state of emergency, friends.
The show trial of President Trump and the city 形容词结构full of soldiers is just the opening act to the Great Purge of a domestic terrorism crackdown on anyone 定语从句who ever retweeted the wrong meme. Biden will embed a domestic terrorism office in the NSC, 分词状语making the NSC's former abuses under Obama routine as a system 分词定语meant to track foreign enemies is instead used to surveil domestic political opponents. Heading the effort will be Joshua Geltzman, 定语从句who had formerly falsely claimed, "No, Black Lives Matter is not a terrorist organization." Inside of a month, Democrats had redefined riots and election challenges from the highest form of patriotism to an attack on democracy. And by “democracy,” they mean the Democrat Party. Popular leaders don’t take their false oaths of office in a deserted city 分词定语surrounded by barbed wire and military checkpoints 分词定语manned by 25,000 troops. Nor do they engage in show trials of their predecessors or unroll massive efforts to surveil, arrest, and silence their opponents. That’s not the stuff of healing, but it is 名词从句how you unite a country at gunpoint under your rule. After four years of vowing to remove President Trump by any means from massive riots to illegal eavesdropping to coups, the Democrats declared an emergency 状语从句because a few Republicans had done 10% of the things 定语从句they had been doing, but without dressing up as human genitalia. Democrats had been collecting bail fund donations for mass arrests in post-election protests and even a “separate fund to raise money for the families of anyone 分词定语killed in violence on or around Election Day.” And then they pivoted from prepping body bags to declaring 宾语从句that insurrection was a national emergency 定语从句which will require the National Guard to sleep in parking lots 定语从句where they won’t annoy Democrat House members 状语从句until Biden sees his own shadow. That or the show trials wrap up 状语出价before they get around to mandating 宾语从句that all future elections take place at Democrat campaign offices 分词状语preceded by poll tests about equity and white privilege. Meanwhile the Democrat media went from writing sympathetic pieces about BLM lawyers 宾补throwing Molotov cocktails at the police to demanding a thorough purge of every single person 定语从句who had ever questioned the idea 同位语从句that Joe Biden might not be the most popular politician ever.
Any day now I expect the publishers 定语从句who toss favors at Democrat officeholders to print and distribute gratis Biden’s Little Red Book for us to memorize, or redo paintings of him 状语从句as they did in Russia of the doddering fool Brezhnev bedecked with dozens of medals.
