ANNUAL SEPTEMBER 11th POST

Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog, the Open City of America, takes a look at a parallel Earth today. As usual this is the only site on the ‘net that is truly non-partisan in its criticism of Democrats and Republicans. WE NEED THIRD PARTIES.

Several years ago a big deal was made over whether or not the 9-11 attacks could have been prevented by greater coordination between elements of the forever corrupt intelligence community. Amid the predictable partisan bickering and childish finger- pointing that characterized the 9-11 Commission and its findings an important consideration was overlooked.

That consideration was how events would have unfolded if the attacks had actually been thwarted. Let’s take a quick look at both the Democrat idiocy and the Republican idiocy that would have followed. 

THE DEMOCRAT IDIOCY – 

*** Democrats always feel that the only officially “intellectual” thing to do is to take sides against one’s own country no matter what the situation is. I agree there are plenty of times when reasonable people WILL take sides against their own country, but with American Democrats the rest of us have learned to just yawn and listen with amusement while they twist logic as severely as they have to in order to stick to their apparent loyalty to “everyone who hates America, right or wrong.”

*** The sheer unlikelihood of the 9-11 attacks would have served as the springboard for the Democrats’ attack on the opposition party’s intelligence services foiling those attacks. (And remember, I despise George W Bush, so this is NOT a defense of him.)

*** Democrats would have scoffed at the notion that the attacks could have ever succeeded. They would have ridiculed that possibility and made remarks like: “So the Bush administration would have us believe that this perfectly charming Mr Mohamed Atta and his friends would have succeeded in multiple plane hijackings and then, with the minimal pilot training they had, manage to fly those planes with pinpoint accuracy into the World Trade Center towers! Where- EVER does that cowboy in the White House get such notions?” 

*** The default argument of all Democrats is that the only people in the world that are irredeemably evil are Americans and they feel it is bigotry to ever suspect anyone else of any ugly intentions. They would have insisted the intelligence services nabbed Atta and his accomplices based solely on “xenophobic” or “racist” or “Islamophobic” assumptions. They’d have insisted it was “A Sacco and Vanzetti story for the 21st Century.” 

( By the way, if you’re not sure if you’re an American Democrat or not here’s a quick guide: If you’re condescendingly assuming that other people won’t understand the Sacco and Vanzetti reference then you just might be an American Democrat!)

PRESIDENT TRUMP NOMINATED FOR THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

President Trump and flagBack in 2015 when Donald Trump first announced he was running for president I rolled my eyes and thought “This will last about three weeks.” I’m glad I was wrong. De facto Third Party President Trump has saved the economy TWICE now, has helped the working class and the poor of all colors more than any other president of my lifetime, has overseen history-making peace measures and so much more.

Every day that neither Hillary Clinton nor Jeb Bush are president count as additional gifts that the Trump presidency has brought. The slobbering psychopaths who keep coming up with false smears against the Donald keep lying louder and louder, then seem shocked that only people who never supported Trump in the first place believe them.

president trump saving childrenIt’s no secret that for decades now America has had one of the most corrupt political establishments in the world. Only President Donald Trump has successfully fought that vile establishment, which has brought the full force of its political and propaganda thuggery against him. Already the Democrats have made clear their intention to muddy the 2020 election results with fraud-friendly mail-in voting.

Here’s the MOTHER JONES reminder of the Donald’s heroics: 

mother-jonesHere’s a take from a true working class heroine. Mary Harris Jones, the legendary labor organizer from the 1890s onward, also known as “the Miner’s Angel” and “Mother Jones,” spoke to Balladeer’s Blog yet again, despite being dead since 1930. 

BALLADEER’S BLOG: Well, hello again! I always enjoy our talks.  

MOTHER JONES: I’m glad to hear it, sonny! I continue to be very impressed with the way President Trump – the new FDR and the new Harry Truman – continues to scrap with the same kind of plutocratic oppressors I always fought.

Trump is SerpicoBB: I admit the stench from Washington, DC is amazing. “Draining the Swamp” as Trump calls it, is demonstrating the depth of corruption and outright criminal activity the Democrats and Republicans are responsible for. It took a de facto Third Party President like Trump to take the first necessary steps.

MJ: You know it, young man! No Democrat or Republican would have rocked the boat like this! I think President Trump is like many heroes in one.

BB: Well, I think “hero” might be too strong a word for Trump, but –

MJ: Yes, yes, I know I’m more enthusiastic about him than you are, but I want you to just listen for awhile.

BB: Okay.

Franklin RooseveltMJ: First off, President Trump is like Franklin Delano Roosevelt. FDR was looking out for the working class and the poor, so rich fat cat scum tried to destroy him like they’re doing with Donald Trump. They even tried the VERIFIED Businessman’s Coup plot against FDR.

Right now the way that Democrat rich pigs are trying to steal the upcoming election is disgusting and is a threat to all elections of the future. Democrat fascists plan to drag out the election results for months.

SECOND, President Trump is like Harry S Truman. Harry gave ’em Hell every chance he could and weak-kneed sissy boys like today’s Mitt Romney and Mitch McConnell clutched their pearls and reached for the smelling salts. Trump shocks more Republican and Democrat trash in one week than good old Harry did in his entire presidency!  

BrubakerTHIRD, President Trump is like that Robert Redford fella when he played Brubaker! Like Trump, Brubaker was trying to clean out a virtual sewer of corrupt officialdom. Even if the scumbags fighting Trump oust him, it will be like the ending of Brubaker, when the prisoners – or American citizens in Trump’s case – gathered around to pay him respect.

The prisoners giving the departing Brubaker a slow clap of good bye was an acknowledgement that the man had tried to help them and to fight the crooked politicians and rich pigs abusing them. President Trump’s end might be like that if the Establishment criminals succeed in driving him from office.

BB: That’s a very profound comparison. Even if – like Brubaker – President Trump’s bottom line accomplishment is to raise awareness in all of us about the NEED to fight the white collar criminals who have hijacked our political system, there is a certain dignity in that. A dignity that people like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden could never understand.  

MJ: Good lad, Balladeer, but I have plenty more heroes to compare with President Trump, so pipe down. 

BB: By all means, carry on.

SerpicoMJ: FOURTH, President Trump is like Serpico. The real-life Serpico, not the weak sauce movie version of the man. Like Frank Serpico, President Trump is the only one refusing to play business as usual and just get bought off.

And like Serpico, even Trump’s presumed allies – the Republican crooks – would happily set up the Donald to be taken down by even bigger crooks who will be glad to do the dirty work.

BB: Now that’s a bit strong, don’t you thi – Continue reading

CIVIL RIGHTS ICON CLARENCE HENDERSON SAYS TRUMP HAS DONE MORE FOR BLACK AMERICANS IN FOUR YEARS THAN BIDEN HAS IN FIFTY

Clarence HendersonCivil Rights Icon Clarence Henderson added his voice to those of other Martin Luther King People of Courage in praising de facto Third Party President Donald Trump’s accomplishments for black Americans.

Trump never called racist til running against DemocratsHe also contrasted Trump’s successful record with Joe Biden’s abysmal record on the same issues.

Henderson reminded voters that Trump gave a record amount of funding to HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities), created a record amount of jobs for the black community, and passed criminal justice reform through the First Step Act where 91 percent of the inmates released were black. 

trump rosa parks and muhammad ali“These achievements demonstrate that Donald Trump truly cares about black lives. His policies show his heart.”

His praise of President Trump and his policies continued – 

“He has done more for black Americans in four years than Joe Biden has done in 50!” Henderson said. Continue reading

THREE LABOR DAY MOVIES

The Labor Day Holiday is taking on greater significance the more that the white collar criminals called Democrats and Republicans sell out the working class. Bought and paid for office-holders are content to screw over the working class.

MatewanMATEWAN (1987) – This John Sayles film examines the 1920 Matewan Massacre in the West Virginia coal fields. The workers were attempting to form a union and the owners – the kind of people that the one percenters’ beloved New York Times has proclaimed to be “the conscience of the country” used hired thugs to harass – and even kill – the laborers.

On top of that the owners planned to bring in replacement workers who would work for less money and would not expect “luxuries” like worker safety measures and the like. Continue reading

AMERICA: PART OF THE DUNE FRANCHISE

DuneBalladeer’s Blog remains the only site on the web that equally criticizes both Democrats and Republicans, depending on which party has been committing greater offenses at the moment.

Reader reaction to my blog post which depicted America and our corrupt political parties as part of the Alien franchise (HERE) was impressive so here is a tongue in cheek look at the U.S. as part of the Dune franchise.

First, my traditional opening to such posts:

“We’re a world of 7 billion people, 10 billion blogs and 20 billion political poses.”

Paul MuadDibTHE FREMEN – These are American VOTERS who heroically endure the harsh, ugly conditions that the hopelessly corrupt and outdated Houses have imposed on the nation.

The bizarre throwback to a feudal culture resulting from the destructive, self-serving policies of those two Houses has become more and more apparent with each passing year. The gap between the haves and have-nots was never clearer than in the past six months.

Still the Fremen soldier on, trying to eke out a living and preserve what few of their liberties remain to them while striking back at their callous and uncaring oppressors whenever they can. The only hope for the future rests with the Fremen/ Voters, certainly not the would-be aristocrats of the venal Houses.

Baron HarkonnenHOUSE HARKONNEN – Needless to say, these are the DEMOCRATS, the most vile and mercilessly totalitarian of the Houses which treat the voters like peasants and cannon fodder.

The Democrats run rings around their rival Houses with their cynical exploitation of crises and tragedies which befall the nation. The conscienceless trash of this House carry out their strategy of “Oppressing people while posing as the oppressed” in increasingly blatant and brutal fashion. Merely expressing an opinion dissenting from the Democrat Party line is considered grounds for loss of one’s livelihood and access to assorted online tools necessary for modern life.

DEMOCRATS FURTHER INTENSIFY THEIR WAR ON THE REST OF US

Vote for TrumpBalladeer’s Blog is the site for Independent voters, but there is no denying that in recent years it’s been the Democrats who have been dividing the nation with their hatred and violence. Here in 2020 Democrats have expanded their violence – including killing more and more frequently – to the level of an all-out war on the rest of us.

Stop Democrat ViolenceDEMOCRATS CONTINUE THEIR WAR ON THE POLICE – Patrick Lynch, head of the largest Police Union in the U.S. pulled no punches in the way that Democrats have turned the streets into battle zones.

“The Democrats have walked away from us.” he said. “Democratic politicians have surrendered our streets and institutions …In city after city, they have slashed police budgets. They have hijacked and dismantled the criminal justice system,” he continued. “They have passed laws that made it impossible for police officers to do our job. The violence and chaos we’re seeing now isn’t a side effect.” HERE

NAVAJO NATIONS VICE PRESIDENT PRAISES TRUMP: NATIVE AMERICANS WEREN’T INVITED TO THE AMERICAN DREAM UNTIL DONALD TRUMP WAS ELECTED

Myron Lizer picMyron Lizer, Vice President of the Navajo Nation, has added to the praise of de facto Third Party President Donald Trump. The Donald has done so much to help so many who suffered under “the Old Rules” of America’s hopelessly corrupt political system.

Not only has President Trump done more to help the working class and the poor of ALL COLORS than any other president of my lifetime but Navajo VP Lizer praised the difference that this president has made for HIS people. (Links below, but first some excerpts)

While discussing the way that, until Donald Trump was elected, Native Americans were ignored by Washington, Myron stated:

“You see our people have never been invited into the American Dream. We for years fought past battles with congressmen and senators that were part of a broken system that ignored us. That is until President Trump took office.”

Among Trump’s accomplishments for Native Americans, Lizer cited “$273 million to improve public safety and support victims of crime in the Native American community.” … Trump re-activated the White House Council on Native American Affairs “to promote economic development and rural prosperity in Indian Country.” (Note From Balladeer: Yes, Trump RE-ACTIVATED that council, unlike some of his compassionless predecessors.)

Myron LizerAnd he praised Trump’s decision to set up a task force to investigate the scores of Native American women who have been killed or gone missing. (Note From Balladeer: Point that out to all the YT true-crime hosts when they inevitably complain about how PAST U.S. and Canadian administrations neglected this issue.)

The task force, dubbed Operation Lady Justice, will “review Indian Country cold cases, to strengthen law enforcement protocols, and work with tribes to improve investigations, information sharing and a more seamless response to missing persons investigations.”

Lizer said Trump had made a direct effort to reach out to Native Americans. “Whenever we meet with President Trump he always made it a priority to repair our relationship with our federal family,” Lizer said.

Lizer went on: “I’m excited to endorse President Trump’s reelection …” Continue reading

DEMOCRATS’ WAR ON THE REST OF US OPENS NEW FRONTS IN KENOSHA AND DENVER


Kenosha democrat riotYes, it’s Joe Biden’s America! Burning cars, burning businesses and nightly riots for all!

The 2020 Democrat War continues as the vile little fascists opened new fronts in Kenosha, WI and Denver, CO.

DemocratsDemocrat rioters even burned down a church with a Black Lives Matter sign, but that shouldn’t surprise us coming from the party of slavery, the Ku Klux Klan, KLANtifa, the Trail of Tears, Jim Crow, and so much else. “Silence is consent” the Democrats so often snivel and so we can assume that the silence from Joe Biden and other Democrats means that these riots aka the 2020 Democrat War have their consent.

Obviously the Democrats’ message is “THIS IS NOTHING COMPARED TO WHAT WE HAVE PLANNED FOR NOVEMBER!”

TRUMP GOES UP FOUR POINTS IN RATING AFTER DEMOCRATS’ MULTI-NIGHT NUREMBERG RALLY

democrat platform is hatredWE NEED THIRD PARTIES! In a year when Democrats keep threatening that they will AGAIN refuse to accept a presidential election loss their hate-filled and divisive “Virtual Convention” did the seemingly impossible: it gave Senile Joe Biden’s OPPONENT a positive bounce in his approval rating.

Utterly hilarious, especially since de facto Third Party President Donald Trump was ALREADY higher than Obama was in 2012 at this point. And Joe Biden’s idiotic remark “THERE’S NEVER BEEN ANYTHING WE’VE BEEN ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH WHEN WE’VE DONE IT TOGETHER” did nothing to dispel the public’s concerns about Biden’s obvious senility and/or dementia.

But Democrats, the hate-filled party I’m ashamed to admit I used to belong to before they lost their sanity, continue living up to their new label as “The House Harkonnen of Politics.” Democrat fascists have made repeated threats that they will use the fraud-friendly process of mail-in voting to drag out the election results FOR MONTHS after election day. And will get more and more violent if they don’t get their way. (See Seattle, Portland, Chicago and elsewhere for a small sample of what Democrats have planned for November.)

BY THE WAY, DEMOCRATS – WHO SEEM CONGENITALLY INCAPABLE OF BEING TRUTHFUL – KEEP PRETENDING THAT MAIL-IN VOTING IS THE SAME AS ABSENTEE VOTING, WHICH IT’S NOT.

Democrats just keep adding to the list of ways in which they sink lower and lower. Read on: Continue reading
