Oh Say Can You See?
“A contemporary nuc can match within the trunk of a compact automotive. When thousands and thousands of individuals can stroll throughout our border with impunity what do you assume the probabilities are we’d catch one thing that measurement?”
– Sam Faddis, Retired CIA
Who was not impressed seeing the sudden and complete collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge after getting its pylon bonked by the container ship Dali a number of hours earlier than the daybreak’s early gentle in Baltimore harbor? In America’s ongoing death-of-a-thousand-cuts, that one actually severed a significant artery, however it could take some time to understand how badly the wounded colossus often called the USA is bleeding out.
“Joe Biden” emerged from his crypt pronto to state that the federal authorities would pony-up the price of constructing the bridge again higher, meant to reassure the general public, you’d suppose. However maybe the actual purpose was to obviate an in any other case requisite investigation of the crash by ship-owner Grace Ocean’s insurance coverage firm — since authorized wrangling over duty would add extra years to the already years-long estimated bridge alternative time frame. And Gawd is aware of what else they could uncover about how the darn factor got here to cross. . . rumors of a Ukrainian captain on the Dali’s helm. . . stuff that the ruling intel blob may not need to get on the market, particularly given the still-murky position of the joint USA-UK black-op blobs within the Moscow Crocus Theater Bloodbath only a week earlier.
The Crocus op, you perceive, was in all probability the worst clusterfuck qua Three Stooges blob operational process in reminiscence, since 4 of the six surviving Tajiki shooters have been nabbed in a automotive enroute to the Ukraine border (the place they’d’ve been whacked into silence, since they did not martyr themselves on the scene-of-the-crime), and by now had absolutely sung their hearts out to persuasive interrogators of Russia’s Federal Safety Service (FSB) — the take-away being that President VV Putin has received to be mighty pissed-off and itching for revenge. Was the FSK Bridge take-down the primary reimbursement for that, plenty of individuals inside and outdoors Blob Central have been in all probability questioning?
You’d additionally should marvel, qua the bridge catastrophe itself, in regards to the implied reverberations by means of the insurance coverage trade. Contemplate that the insurance coverage trade is a significant cog within the equipment of finance and banking, since insurance coverage firm reserves are historically allotted in supposedly protected sovereign treasury bonds. Liquidations anybody? Maritime insurance coverage was already groaning below the burden of all that monkey-business within the Purple Sea, due to Houthi rocket and drone assaults on the transport of Western Civ. Are the banks quaking tougher now? Many throughout Western Civ have been already trembling earlier than the FSK Bridge job.
Whereas the superior spectacle of the bridge collapse traumatized the nation, it additionally dropped at thoughts the improbable move of ten-thousand unlawful border crossings a day, stage-managed by the “Joe Biden” Homeland Safety staff. Did you sort of marvel what number of in that 10K-a-day move could be the identical species of Central Asian mutts who volunteered to slaughter over 150 (to this point) Russian concert-goers? No one is checking who they’re, you understand. They simply step on US soil, get issued smartphones, loaded debit playing cards, walking-around money cash, airplane and bus tickets and, voila, there they’re in your house city tomorrow, searching for one thing to occupy themselves. Thanks a bunch, Alejandro Mayorkas!
Are you questioning what kind of mayhem they could be able to unleashing anywhere from Bangor to Burbank within the weeks and months forward? (And, whilst you’re at it, take into consideration all of the meals processing plant fires, prepare wrecks, and different mysterious tribulations across the nation the previous couple of years.) Contemplate that this very week alone, following the FSK Bridge catastrophe, completely nothing has been executed by our authorities to stem that move of numerous potential saboteurs into the nation. The information media isn’t even speaking about it (after all).
The prospects may look a bit unnerving, wouldn’t you agree? Issues catching fireplace, blowing up, and falling down right here, there, and all over the place. . . extra of these thousand cuts including up. Simply perhaps, the dazed-and-confused (presumably hypnotized) American public, a.okay.a., the “voters,” may put collectively that “Joe Biden” and the Celebration of Chaos that owns him, are literally accountable for the on-going take-down of our nation. After a sure level — now apparently handed — sheer incompetence is not a believable clarification for what you might be seeing.
Oh, one different factor, look out for on-the-ground financial reverberations from the FSK Bridge catastrophe. For example, Baltimore is the USA’s high port for importing and exporting cars. Additionally, earth-moving and enormous farm tools, fertilizer, lumber, coal, and metal. Different preparations have to be made, for years forward, contemplating the trucking hyperlinks. It’s particularly an interruption for trucking between the mid-Atlantic / New England states and far of Dixieland. It would have an effect on the transport of vegetables and fruit to the Washington-Boston hall. Issues are going to value extra and we’re already in an inflationary trouble-zone. How will this thunder elsewhere by means of an economic system which, regardless of the japes of “Joe Biden’s” statisticians, is actively disintegrating? The fluttering wings of this black swan already throw a chill on spring’s incoming zephyrs.
