Sunday Thoughts July 31, 2022

If it is Sunday, well, it is Sunday. 

August is typically the slowest time of the year for Washington. Congress is on break and the President is traveling or on vacation. Traditionally, August was a good time to send the President on a world tour as it got him away from the American media. The host countries make sure to select only cooperative reporters to ask the President questions. These days with the American media operating as a public relations firm for the political establishment, Biden does not have that issue. 

Even so, it is a rest period for the fall run into the midterms. It is the one time of year when Washington is a pleasant city. That is another reason to suspect that this raid on Mar-a-Lago caper was not run out of the administration and instead was done by others. The mad scramble to get important figureheads like Garland back into the city and provide them with a script suggests they were unprepared. The media was also caught off-guard so they did not have their narrative ready. 

It is easy to forget, but the FBI spying caper was mostly run by junior members. It is clear now that the Obama people did not know what was happening until that kooky CIA director gave them a cock and bull story about it near the end of their time. They knew he was lying, which is why they wrote memos to themselves to that effect, so they could avoid getting caught up in it. The people in charge are not the people in charge. That is the problem, no one is in charge so it is a free-for-all.

That is one of those small signs that suggest we may be closer to the end the American empire than we realize. If the deep state were really in control or the alleged leaders were on top of things, these capers would not be happening with increasing frequency. The war against Russia, sending Pelosi to Taiwan and this Trump caper look to me like a system in crisis, rather than control. People in the system are doing what they want because they have no dear from the top. Behind closed doors, it is chaos.
