NEWS, MEMES AND POLITICAL CARTOONS ROUNDUP: FEB TWENTY-FOURTH

Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog is back with another current events roundup for all you ladies and gentlemen!

Watching President Trump cleaning up the cesspool of corruption in our political establishment reminds me of a much larger version of the cleanup in New York City’s police department in the 1970s following Frank Serpico’s revelations.

And those revelations were just the tip of the iceberg as you can read in the non-fiction book Prince of the City (NOT the fictional film based on it). The corruption was so pervasive that some were even contemplating bringing in the National Guard to replace the New York City police so that hiring could start from scratch once all the incriminated parties were rooted out.

For another comparison remember the real-life efforts of prosecutors Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino as they tried to end organized crime’s control of Sicily’s governmental figures. They were eventually assassinated after years of having the entire corrupt system against them. The non-fiction book Excellent Cadavers is a great way to familiarize yourself with them.

Long years ago, when I first read that book (full title Excellent Cadavers: The Mafia and the Death of the First Italian Republic) I thought at the time that any real attempt in America to clean up our institutionalized political corruption would resemble that situation. Obviously on a much larger scale, of course. 

The Establishment Sewer is fighting back, and the outcome of this first dedicated pushback against America’s bought and paid for officeholders and bureaucrats is still uncertain. Our repulsive “intelligence agencies” may try anything and “By Any Means Necessary” has long been the motto of America’s fascist Democrat Party.

Even worse, Trump has made some unforced errors and lapsed into foolish distractions like the whole “51st State” nonsense with Canada. He’s still a de facto Third Party President and given the unreliability of A LOT of Congressional Republicans massive betrayal could come at any time.

The most likely danger may not be that dramatic, however, and may instead manifest in the form of the general public’s tendency to pretend “the good guys won” after a major event and go back to ignoring politics while the rot resumes spreading. Interesting times ahead.

DEMOCRAT MEDIA OUTLET MSNBC ABSURDLY MISREPRESENTS THE APPRAISAL EMAIL SENT TO FEDERAL WORKERS. Their reporting shows they didn’t bother reading the actual email.

TRUMP GETS RIGHTFULLY BOOED FOR IDIOTICALLY PRAISING PFIZER’S CEO AT A WHITE HOUSE EVENT. Nobody in Big Pharma deserves praise given that industry’s abuses. Has he forgotten how Big Pharma hated him for helping people who were suffering from their policies during his first term?
