The ULTIMATE Revenge of the Thin Blue Line: 1968 Chicago DNC Redux That Wasn't in 2024

The other night I watched a dad coming from the protest with his little girl, giving a good hard few final snaps on the drum he was carrying, nodding at her in crisp salute, percussing his perspective into her little mind. This is not peaceful. -
Ridiculous John McWhorter a Professor at Columbia University doesn't like drums or dads!

After the Campus Protests this spring, McWhorter was writing about, and the over-the-top heavy-handed response from University Administrators and several Police Departments, Republicans and their Corporate Media allies geared up for the Ultimate MAGA reunion; Making The Chicago DNC 1968 Great Again.


I don't know who is more upset;  the Chicago (and Suburban Police held in reserve) hoping to descend on some protestors and club them like their grand daddies did, Republicans who were hoping to declare Democrat Crime and Democrat Jew-Haters or the Corporate Media who were giddy at the thought of protestors derailing the Harris/Walz freight train towards victory.

Ok! Honeymoons Over! We say it's over! Stop it!
Stop it right now! We in the Media say it's over!!!
The Corporate Media, Republicans, and Reactionaries in the Police wanted their very own Kent State, and their own 1968 DNC in 2024, so the Media could declare the Harris Honeymoon Over and now it's DEMS IN DISARRAY til Election Day and we need a Strongman like Dear Leader DonOld Trump to bring Order to this Nation.

Man you can see how much the Mainstream Press Corps and elite Journalists yearned for chaos and violence in Chicago.  It's dripping from the dozens of pieces they wrote and when it didn't materialize they were reduced to complaining their seats in the United Center were waaaaaaaaaaaay up in the 300 level and their free accommodations were so poor and the free dinner portions were so small!  

Fortunately, the Biden/Harris campaign team seems to have recognized the Corporate Media are not only not neutral, the Corporate Media is actively working for ugly weirdo Traitor Trump and the Republican Project 2025 Agenda.

But, besides the disappoint for the Republican Neo-Nazis, the other great outcome from the DNC 2024 Riots That Weren't was the utter inconsequential Dirtbag Left attack on the Democratic Party.  With the thought that Joe Biden would be accepting the nomination, the DNC and CeaseFire Now groups thought why would have up to 40,000 protestors making things miserable for "Genocide Joe" and the DNC; 

Then came Kamala Harris — and the protest fizzled.


Organizers anticipated there would be 30,000 to 40,000 protesters on hand for Monday’s kickoff. But only a few thousand showed up; police estimated 3,500.


“There were more reporters than protesters,” observed Bennett Weiss. He was there selling Gaza-related buttons, including one that, he said, describes himself: “Self-Ambivalent Jew Against Zionism.”

Instead, perhaps a few thousand showed up, and they were either non-entities or such idiots they made the Chicago Police look good in comparison!  This was a great success for the Chicago Police and showed what can happen with proper planning and training in Police Forces,

“Can we stop talking about 1968?” Chicago police Superintendent Larry Snelling asked at a news conference Friday. “2024 is the new standard, and the men and women of the Chicago Police Department set that new standard out in the field.” 

After their outside agitation failed, these groups demanded a speaking spot at the DNC which was rightly declined because why would anyone give the erstwhile Left a chance to derail the Triumphant Harris/Walz DNC?  

What a colossal failure by the erstwhile Left, I write erstwhile left because this is a group which voted for Trump in 2016, preemptively declared they would never support Joe Biden in 2020, and decided to rebrand on the fly from ABANDON BIDEN to ABANDON HARRIS because like a horseshoe many of those "leftists" hate the Democratic Party as much as Faux News and the rightwing propagandists like Charlie Kirk, Mike Pillow Lindell, and Jack Proboscis trying to desperately to get some soundbite from some Kefir wearing malcontent which they could use to label Doug Emhoff an "anti-Semite".  Instead, Mike Pillow Lindell was fighting with children and Jack Proboscis was reduced to crying don't say any naughty words during my disingenuous podcast!

Meanwhile, soon-to-be President Harris and Vice President Walz continue to take their message of Joy & Freedom, True Liberty & Real Patriotism directly to the American people and the Corporate Media are getting more and more desperate to blunt what looks to be a 21st century electoral blowout of the Dear Leader DonOld Trump.

Republican Congressional candidates have nothing to offer the American people but, Lies

"This story was placed by the liberal media and my opponent... All of my deployments are listed as classified, " JR Majewski, just blame the liberal media and continue lying; guaranteed election results.

Tina Forte, J.R. Majewski, and John Gibbs are Republican candidates for Congress.  So, understand they won their primaries.  Now, it appears none of their staff or consultants did a background check or create an opposition research file on themselves.  Literally, none of these people belong anywhere near the US Government or making laws.

But, it doesn't matter because all Republicans have to do is scream Radical CRT Woke Socialist BLM Antifa and that pure unfiltered propaganda garners them support and votes.  And to be clear these 3 wack-job liars aren't the only Republicans running Congress just spouting bullshit, propaganda and falsehoods.  It's all of them.

Tina Forte rose to prominence with her heavy Bronx accent YouTube videos, steroid physique and her veal carpaccio chest screaming about AOC.  

Forte attended the January 6th insurrection and now is running against AOC.  Now Forte won her Republican primary with 1500 votes out of 2200 cast and AOC received over 150,000 in the 2020 general so... this election isn't going to be close and is going to be called with 0% reporting.  

But here's the thing about Tina Forte screaming AOC is going to Defund the Police, her family is a drug dealing and gun smuggling cartel with multiple arrests and run-ins with the law.  But, she gets to run as the Law&Order candidate because the Corporate Media will always find a way to #BothSides this.  AOC supports Police reform while Tina Forte is a Moll or gumar so both sides have a problem with law enforcement (Check out the NewYorkTimes Pitchout for similar ledes)

Meanwhile, J.R. Majewski won his primary by touting his vivid combat experience in Afghanistan being the 1st Air Force Squadron on the ground after 9/11 and he went weeks without a shower and his high-level corporate decision making.  Of course, Majewski never made it to Afghanistan.  Ever.  But, service during the Phony GWoT is no longer an animating principle for Conservatives these days anyway.  As Dan Crenshaw found out when a rightwing troll confronted him on the street to belittle his injuries and combat service.  I've noted for years on this blog and elsewhere that conservatives don't actually support the troops and never had, it's just that had been confined to mocking, attacking, and belittling Democratic or left service members but now Millennial Rightwingers belittle Republicans, too.

Then there is John Gibbs, who worked for the Trump administration in HUD (because Racist Trump thinks blacks should be confined to Urban development) won the Republican primary by ousting Pete Meijer, who had taken over the seat in 2020 but, had done the unthinkable and supported the Jan6th investigation, contempt of Congress charges against convicted criminal Steve Bannon, and voted to impeach Donald John Traitor Trump.  This is anathema to the modern GQP.  

So, Gibbs challenged him and won the Trumpublican nomination for Congress.  Well, back in 2000 and 2001, young master Gibbs attended Stanford where he founded and wrote for conservative group called the Society for the Critique of Feminism, where Gibbs argued that Women's Suffrage wrecked America.  His campaign staff have responded to the reporting by stating Gibbs really didn't believe women shouldn't be allowed to work or vote, he was just Owning the Libs before Owning the Libs was cool.

Will Veterans vote for JR Majewski?  Will women vote for Josh Gibbs?  Will LEOs vote for Tina Forte?  I guess the answers will come inside of 6 weeks.  I haven't felt this depressed about Elections since 2004, when Republicans ran on September 11th, Global War on Terror, Rah rah rah War and "won".

Republicans won and America lost.  Conservatives never really believed their so-called principles.  All their talk of liberty and support the troops and thin blue line has been rhetorical cudgels to bash the left.  What conservatives really want is a White Supremacist Nation run by the Patriarchy.  The ultimate goal for the Rich Republicans is to give conservatives a racist evangelical ethno-state here where domestic dissent by liberals, women, minorities, LGBTQ is ruthlessly quashed by Paramilitary Police forces and an expansive military which goes abroad and secures resources from foreign Nations by whatever means necessary.

Republicans love when children are raped in Ohio

The horrific story of the sexually assaulted child in Ohio.  Her forced march to Indiana to receive immediate necessary life-saving healthcare and the Rightwing descent into pure evil to demonize her and anyone defending her proves that from the vilest on-line Reactionary Edgelord to Congressman Gym 'Blind Eye' Jordan to the Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost one thing you can say about Ohio Republicans is they fvcking love when children are raped. 

The Rape-publican Party has nothing to offer the American people.  No plans.  No policies.  No future. Just more and more violence directed against more and more Americans. The Republican war on American women is all about dominating and exerting control over their lives.  As such this is going to lead to terrible results for specific individuals which conservatives are obliged to proclaim are fake news.

So once President Biden mentioned the logical outcome of Republican policies,  i.e. a raped 10 year old being forced by Republican government to carry a baby conservatives knew it had to be a lie.  And so the entire right-wing wurlitzer roared into action to declare this a hoax.

Treasonous Congressman Jim Jordan, The Ohio AG, conservative drones on Twitter who repeat everything spoon-fed to them by the rightwing Wurlitzer, Jesse Watters and the Faux Noise machine all sought a win.  Did they do even a modicum of research? Reflection? No they took to cable, terrestrial radio, social media to declare this a hoax fake News debunked.  And begin a non-stop vicious slur campaign against the 10 year old, the Liberal Media, President Biden and whomever stood in their way of winning.

One of the techniques Republicans have mastered is to get out in front of the news cycle and proclaim this or that incident had been debunked and then rely upon the nature of the ever advancing news cycle to move on to other things.  Once the truth comes out the Republican base will only remember that Rightwing news, on-line provocateurs, and Donald Trump were right.  Even, and especially, when Republicans are spectacularly wrong.  Deplorable was too kind a term to describe conservatives.  Rape-publicans know their bigoted vile brain-dead fascists supporters live in the Eternal Now.  

Therefore, Now is when the #OwntheLibs 

Now is when they troll the Squad.

Now is when they threaten to murder Jan6th committee members.

Now is when attack Joe Biden, or trans persons, or raped 10 year old girls...

Later doesn't matter. Because later never comes...

Additional:

And just like that Conservatives have transitioned in their War of the Eternal Now to attacking Doctor Caitlin Bernard because that women had the temerity to undermine the bullshit agitprop the rightwing was foisting upon the Nation.  Social Media is going to be aflame with conservative trolls smearing and threatening Dr. Bernard.

Trump Neo-Nazi Scottie Nell Hughes grabs facts by the pussy

"Will you please stop saying that word? My daughter is listening." Scottie Nell Hughes, who knew the word she was referring to was "facts".
Trump surrogate and good little bundist Scottie Nell Hughes caused a bit of a furor this December when she stated,
"One thing that has been interesting this entire campaign season to watch, is that people that say facts are facts - they’re not really facts. Everybody has a way of interpreting them to be the truth or not true. There are no such things, unfortunately, as facts. So Mr Trump’s tweets, amongst a certain crowd, a large part of the population, are truth."
Hughes was clearly eliding Darth Cheney who famously stated, Raygun "proved deficits don't matter". Trump's election "victory" proves facts don't matter.

This is not the first time a conservative has stated "there are no such things as facts", No less a luminary than Ronnie Raygun himself stated "facts are stupid things." And Karl Rove was sickeningly prescient when he spoke of the of the RepublicaNazi reality, "[W]hen we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities..."

Scottie's comments are just conservatism distilled down to it's basest form; pure propaganda. There are no facts to right-wingers there is only the ever evolving narrative which conforms to whatever they believe and aids them in quest for Power. The natural end-state of right-wing beliefs is a boot stamping on a human face forever,

In this quest for power, conservative neo-nazis readily believe Trump actually won the popular vote because millions of illegals voted at the behest and urging of Kenyan Marxist Usurper Barack Obama. Those are the facts.

Of course, CNN is doing their best bringing on Trump surrogates and former elected Republicans New Hampshire State Representatives and portraying them as regular everyday white people who when pushed to support their "facts" respond just google it, because anything you want to believe can be found by googling it.

Addendum:
A decade ago John Stauber released The Best War Ever about the RepublicaNazi propaganda efforts to dupe the American people into supporting the Iraq War. Stauber talked about incestuous amplification that the Bush/Cheney cabal began to believe their own propaganda as the war dragged on and did not conform to right-wing lies of Mission Accomplished and ended up fooling themselves.

What Stauber and most people didn’t appreciate, myself included, is the Bush/Cheney cabal didn't end up deluding themselves, they always knew they were spreading lies.
