Weird Things Going On In DC

 It seems the military has 20,000 troops guarding buildings in Washington DC in preparation for the installation of the phony president, Joe Biden.  It's a "consciousness of guilt" scenario -- the Dems know that they have committed a treasonous overthrow of our electoral system and are expecting extreme pushback because of it.

Huh? In Chicago, a Black Chapter of the Ku Klux Klan?

A group of black Christians have reportedly started a local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan in Chicago.  The story sounds like something out of the satirical online newspaper, the Onion.

Here's a snippet of the Black Klan story:

Chicago – A group of black men from the South-side of Chicago have started a local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan, saying that local blacks have devastated the area.

Jerome Jenkins, who organized the group, stated, “this area has become a war zone and we are prepared to take back our streets. These pants-sagging delinquents have no respect for anyone, including themselves. We are good wholesome Christian men, who agreed with the message being delivered by the KKK. These hood-dwellers need to be taken down a notch. We’ve held daily prayer for these streets for years, but God is taking too long — I believe he wants us to take action. We are calling on all members of this ravaged community to join our cause. Fight against these people, stand with the KKK, and bring the black race back to a time when we were respected.”

This is great.  Now the Southern Poverty Law Center will embrace the Klan and praise it for its diversity.  More importantly, now I can go ahead with my plans to start a white chapter of the New Black Panthers, and beat up white people who wear their pants too low, take drugs and vote for Democrats.

Weird! London's Olympics Opening Ceremony

Invasion of the Mary Poppins

Last night I watched the opening ceremony in London for the Summer Olympics.  It was utterly bizarre.  Thee were large crowds of actors/participants doing weird things and it all seemed chaotic and pointless.

First a bunch of people dressed like farmers pick up their wooden fences and depart the huge stage area, while another bunch of people dressed like 19th Century workers file into the stage area on the other side.  They busily turn ratchets and levers while smoke stacks rise from the ground to belch smoke.  Meanwhile, a squad of about ten men dressed in top hats and dark suits wander about, making strange motions with their hands and arms.  They looked like something out of "Oliver Twist."  The man in the middle has an unlit cigar in his mouth, and looks about with a very satisfied smile on his face, signifying absolutely nothing (maybe he just likes cigars).

There is a whole scene of music and lights and costumed people celebrating Britain's National Health Service, to the satisfied clucking of the liberal American media hosts, supporting (by implication) Obamacare in their not so subtle way. After all, if it were not for Britain's National Health Service, moms might be giving birth in alleyways rather than the public restrooms of the NHS (because socialized medicine can't produce enough hospital beds).

After much fireworks, reenactments of Peter Pan, Mary Poppins and Harry Potter, Paul McCartney warbles "Hey Jude" (he was not in his finest voice by any means) while the huge crowd sings along, swaying to the rhythm in unison. Following this, there was an interminable succession of scenes with eclectic crowds of disparately-dressed people singing passé and hackneyed modern pop songs, as if the whole world had suddenly decided to play dress-up and congeal into one giant cliché.

Boring! To say the least. Great Britain, with its long and magnificent history, its Lord Nelson, Spitfires, Magna Carta, Oliver Cromwell, William Shakespeare, Winston Churchill, etc, deserved much better.
