The first part of what you see above is a TikTok video that recently went viral on social media of Claira Janover, a recent Harvard graduate threatening to stab anyone who said “all lives matter.”

She won a huge audience as she intended. But then the narcissistic Harvard alum posted a very different video — the second part above, one that shows her weeping in a near-fetal position.

She fights back tears while complaining how unfair the world had been to her. Her initial TikTok post had earned cruel pushback from the social media jungle she had courted. Deloitte, she sobbed, was mean and hurtful. And she wanted the world to share her pain.

Guess what, Claira?  The world could care less about your pain.  You’re an object of ridicule instead. A sampling of YouTube comments:

The truth is that the COVID-19 epidemic, the lockdown, and the rioting were seen by the Left, the media, and now the Democrat Party as a renewed effort in this election year to do what Robert Mueller, Ukraine, and impeachment had not—abort the presidency of Donald Trump, or make it impossible for him to be reelected.

To that end, almost daily, entire fantasies were birthed, floated, crashed, and then were replaced by new hoaxes. The strategy was that while one lie might be refuted, the bigger and more numerous the lies, the more a continuous narrative could be fabricated.

Consequently, the last two weeks, in succession we were told by the media:

For months, and particularly during the end of June and start of July, Russian politics was centered on ensuring the desired result in the vote on the set of amendments to the constitution to keep him in perpetual power.

By resorting to crude manipulations and fraud, President Vladimir Putin secured his “triumph” and can now claim yet another (his fifth) presidential term in the elections scheduled for 2024.

Economic indicators are also carefully doctored: even as real incomes and household consumption keep contracting, government forecasts continue to predict a fast recovery (Rosbalt, June 30).

Putin cannot order the recession to stop, so he has turned to the area where he used to thrive—foreign policy.  Used to – but not any more.

As the summer of our discontent drags on, the fall of 2020 will bring with it either the fall of America or its rise from the ashes.

This Independence Day, the battle lines were drawn unambiguously, and the fate of our nation truly does rest on the decision of the American voters in November.

It is now a commonplace that every election of our recent history is “the most important” election ever. Even accepting that given, any objective look at the parameters of the national discussion leading into this election makes it clear that 2020 is not only an important election, but indeed, a domestic existential crisis unlike any this country has seen since 1860 on the eve of the Civil War.

I’ve been a avid TTPer for some years now.  In that time I’ve gotten to know Jack, talking geopolitics applying to my specialties as an international lawyer -- offshore banking, international trusts, and asset protection in foreign jurisdictions.

When I told him the other day about one of his favorite countries – St. Lucia in the Caribbean – and its “Coronavirus Passport,” he asked me to tell fellow TTPers about it.  So here we go.

The Coronavirus Pandemic that has been swamping the world the last six months and has brought death, destruction and economic devastation in its wake.  One silver lining in all of this negativity, however, for those seeking to protect themselves and their families, has been in the second passport arena.

This is the hardest thing I have written.

I grew up in a law enforcement family. My father worked his way up to the rank to Captain at the Ft. Smith, Arkansas Police Department. As I kid I remember going with him on Friday to pick up his check and I was in awe of these super heroes he worked around.

They were funny and fun to be around. Men and women of all races all with the same mission, to make the community safer.  After college, I was proud to become a police officer myself.  27 years has passed and if you would have told me the condition of law enforcement today, I would have never believed you.

It’s not that law enforcement has changed for the worse but everything around it has.  This why we are leaving, America.  You’ll soon be on your own.

The 2020 election will be decided in the fall by swing voters in ten or 15 states. Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, those voters were leaning to reelect President Trump, largely on the powers of incumbency and a near-record vibrant economy.

Then came the contagion, the lockdown, the recession, and the collective madness of looting and arson, which in turn led to the present anarchy of statue toppling, cancel culture, name-changing, and McCarthyism 2.0.

Of course, a president is blamed for chaos on his watch even if he did not create the chaos. He either stops it and is praised as a winner or, like Jimmy Carter during the Iran hostage crisis of 1979-1980, is written off as a loser.

The hour of reckoning is here and either Trump will crush the lawlessness and win the swing voters to his side, or he will listen to the trimmers [Jared Kushner, anyone?] and lose the country.

If Donald J. Trump is re-elected to a second term as president, will that victory finally be enough to break the back of a military and policy “elite” who have surrendered to the anti-American mobs and the Democrat Party who made them possible?

It’s a good question.  Here’s more.

Who does our military serve?

Are they subordinated to some ineffable “conventional wisdom” about justice and racial harmony? Do they march to the beat of a “politically correct” agenda defined by the organizations like Black Lives Matter, Antifa, or to the nostrums of ivy league grandees?

Or are they under the command of the citizen America elects to hold the rank of their commander-in-chief?

Due process is not the strong suit of mobs. Neither is nuance, open discussion, or disagreement.

These inherent defects should be painfully obvious as mobs pull down statues, seize sections of cities, and demand the public approach them on bended knee, literally. Anyone who dares push back, perhaps with a mild tweet saying “All lives matter,” faces immediate censure.

In this perilous environment, the most frenzied voices do more than dominate the public square. They monopolize it by silencing dissent. They have received full-throated support from the tech giants that control electronic discussion and the media giants determined to shape the narrative rather than report the news.

The “thought police” are on patrol and ever-vigilant, twirling the twin batons of guilt and moral superiority.  They need to be defunded.

It’s certainly frustrating to watch a pack of reeking leftist scumbags declare a portion of an American city an “autonomous zone” – what is it with Democrats and their secession fetish? – but do not get frustrated because Donald Trump has not sent the 101st Airborne in to powerwash the human grunge from Seattle’s feces-bedecked streets.

That’s what the Democrats want. And Trump – a better strategic thinker than all the media geniuses, hack politicians, and Afghan War-losing generals who cry about him – is not only not going to give them the victory they crave. He’s going to jam their cheesy plan down their throats.

The libs’ plan to win in November corresponds to Trump’s plan to crush them yet again. Here’s how and here’s why.  You’re going to enjoy this.

When I see the images from Lafayette Square on Monday night (6/22) I keep wondering, where are the conservative leaders who have said so much and done so little to defend our history?

It was a multi-ethnic group of working class DC cops who stood guard protecting Andy Jackson’s statue, their facemasks flecked with the spittle from woke white women. Being taunted by woke white men with man buns. And getting called a traitor to their race.

What I want to see right now more than anything is elected officials and community leaders who are willing and ready to link arms with these cops and physically take part in cleaning up this mess and defying the mob.

When something cannot go on, it certainly will not go on. But what are the symptoms of what cannot go on and when?

There are two historic red lines and our revolution is getting close to both.

When Normal People Grow Weary 

One is when “average” people, both white and nonwhite, who identify neither with Left nor Right, woke nor unwoke, become frightened or appalled by the violence and the anarchy—and thus finally move to dismantle the guillotine as the razor increasingly starts haircutting friends, idols, and compatriots.

Their verdict can be known either by demonstrating themselves, boycotting, voting, or massive civil disobedience. At some point, tonight’s looting rioting hero on on CNN, becomes tomorrow’s commonplace, unnoticed felon.

This is the opening narration of an episode of The Twilight Zone in 1961, written by Rod Serling.  It was called "The Obsolete Man."  Indeed.  He knew the left's mantra: "Logic is an enemy and truth is a menace."

Watching it today is a stark reminder that what we Americans are experiencing, the violence that is tormenting Democrat-run cities throughout America, is not particularly new.  The totalitarian left has forever been trying to eliminate those of us who rage against the dying of the light.

Serling was beyond prescient when he wrote the screenplay for this episode.  He was a true visionary.  He somehow envisioned the future we now inhabit — an era in which those who "have a mind" are deemed obsolete.

Among the most durable of those institutions is what some call “the great American city.” America’s cities are indeed a wonder—built quickly from nearly nothing across a vast continent into a unique story of social and economic success.

We may now be on the cusp of a great reordering of the nation’s population as many people decide it is time to separate themselves and their families from the social, political and moral turbulence of this country’s large Democrat-controlled urban areas.

People with all sorts of political beliefs are going to get out because they are watching Democrat-controlled city after city reach a tipping point of social disorder and political disorganization.

In the past three months it has become clear that modern urban Democrat progressivism is politically incompetent and intellectually incoherent.

Derek Chauvin was a racist cop,

a registered Democrat,

working for a Democrat Police Chief

voted into office by Democrat voters,

in a Democrat controlled city,

in a Democrat controlled state.

He had 18 complaints against him and was let off multiple times by Democrat prosecutor,

now Democrat Senator and failed Democrat presidential candidate Amy Klobuchar.

But somehow, it's all Trump's fault?!

Facts: America is accused of racism, of holding racial minorities back by way of system-wide white supremacism, and yet Jews, black Nigerians, Indian Americans (from India), and Asians are more successful in America than whites, and their respective imprison rates are lower than whites.

How is it possible in a country that we’re told is riddled with the cancer of white supremacism for those four groups to enjoy a higher standard of living and more success than their all-powerful, white oppressors?

The asking of the question answers the question.

The day after the horrific death of George Floyd on May 25, the rioting began in Minneapolis.  It was violent, destructive, and murderous.  Tragically, the death of this one man at the hands of one particular bad cop became an opportunity for the demolition of the city.  Hundreds of small businesses, many of them minority-owned, were destroyed.

Like previous riots, the rioters have set their own communities back decades.  The riots spread to New York; Washington, D.C.; Los Angeles; Chicago; Santa Monica; Beverly Hills; and elsewhere.  There have been protests in nearly every other city in America.  Hundreds of millions of dollars in losses due to looting and damage to buildings have been incurred.

The question is, where on Earth are the Republicans?

Why has there been no press conference with every Republican in the House and Senate standing together to denounce all this violence?  To passionately defend our police?  Why are they cowering in silence?

In 1987, Life Call took America by storm with TV commercials advertising a necklace for elderly people that had a button on it connecting them to emergency services.  The memorable tagline was "I've fallen and I can't get up."

On Monday (6/08), Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Democrat leadership became the living embodiment of a tagline symbolizing helpless frailty.

[On Sunday May 31, naturalized US citizen from Cameroon in West Africa, Nestride Yumga confronted BLM protestors in Washington DC.  “Black Lives Matter is a joke. You are the racists,” she told them. “Go to Chicago. They don’t have schools, and they die every day. They don’t matter because you can’t get attention from that…  You guys are hypocrites, attention seekers. No one is a victim here. The only victim here is George Floyd.” The video of her went so viral that she was invited to write an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, published yesterday (6/08).  Here is the video – her op-ed follows.]

The “peaceful protests” against the terrible brutalization and death of George Floyd soon either themselves turned violent or, in many cases, were hijacked by Antifa operatives and opportunistic looters or both.

It was certainly not as alleged a “small number” who destroyed swaths of New York, Santa Monica, Minneapolis, or Philadelphia.

After watching hours of such footage of mayhem and destruction, one can glean a few rules that the rioters apparently followed quite religiously. And they are often disconcerting if not bizarre. Here is a sample of 10.

[New York Times journos are in “open revolt” over the egregiousness of publishing a view opposing theirs.  TTP salutes Senator Cotton for his courage.  This op-ed was in the NY Times yesterday 6/03]

This week, rioters have plunged many American cities into anarchy, recalling the widespread violence of the 1960s.

These rioters, if not subdued, not only will destroy the livelihoods of law-abiding citizens but will also take more innocent lives. Many poor communities that still bear scars from past upheavals will be set back still further.

One thing above all else will restore order to our streets: an overwhelming show of force to disperse, detain and ultimately deter lawbreakers. But local law enforcement in some cities desperately needs backup, while delusional politicians in other cities refuse to do what’s necessary to uphold the rule of law.

“Black lives matter until a black woman gets pregnant”

­--observation among pro-life black women

One of the more disturbing images to emerge in the past few days has been of police officers and National Guardsman kneeling — effectively bowing down — before the mob.

These men and women who represent the forces of law and order claim they are kneeling in solidarity, but what they're doing looks remarkably like surrender.

The reason they are doing so is almost certainly because they believe the Big Lie that leftists are selling — namely, that law enforcement is causing a black "genocide."

While it's true that there is black genocide in America, it's not coming from law enforcement.  It's coming straight from Planned Parenthood, the Democrats' most sacred organization.

Coronavirus has been the most searched term on Google in 2020. Suddenly, for the last several days, three-quarters of the top trending Google searches relate to the country-wide riots over the death of George Floyd. Virtually no searches of the Chinese coronavirus.

Twitter provides another barometer. Of the top trending Twitter topics for these days noted above, a third were tied to the riots, but nothing regarding the Wuhan flu.

How could such a black swan event disappear from the news so quickly? This is another example of Rush Limbaugh’s “drive-by media”, quickly driving past a story that is no longer of use or relevance to the DNC media apparatus.

Was the past four months of media hysteria and panic really about the virus? Or was it instead a means to a desired end?

After nearly four years, we’ve arrived at the end game, the final, violent cry of the “resistance” as it continues to try to overturn the results of the 2016 election and tip the United States of America irreversibly toward anarchy and socialism.

Aided and abetted by the mainstream media and the majority of Democrat politicians, the current unrest sweeping the country is being presented as “dissent” and “protest” but is, in fact, insurrection. It’s time to put it down, hard.

Although the media would have you believe otherwise, we’ve been down this road as a nation before, and dealt with insurrection decisively.  It’s time for President Trump to do the same – and there is no question that he has the law on his side.

The Death-by-Cop of George Floyd in Minneapolis was grotesque. That the people of Minneapolis have turned out to protest is understandable.

But is it really the citizens of Minneapolis who have set the city on fire, burning down small businesses as well as the police precinct building, libraries, etc.?  Who are those masked men in black with secret-service quality ear-pieces, military grade gas masks and backpacks full of Molotov cocktails?

They are very likely professional rioters, recruited, transported and paid by the likes of some George Soros front group or other anonymous Cloward-Piven devotees who share Soros’ hatred of America and want to see this nation bought to its knees.

The same Democrats who just a few weeks ago threatened beach walkers, churchgoers, and other disobedient social distancers are giving a wink and a nod to arsonists, looters, and attempted murderers.

Democrats belong to the Party of Lawlessness. No wonder Democratic politicians only give lip service in condemning the looters; they share a mutual contempt for the ideals on which the country was founded and a common mission to fundamentally transform the country and all its institutions to yield to their America-hating point of view.

Why, then, should we be compelled to rescue them as violence continues? Why should we not watch in smug satisfaction as they are hoisted with their own petard?

Even Trump-supporters have wondered about Trump's tweets implying that MSNBC's Joe Scarborough had something to do with a young intern's death in his office when he was still a Florida congressman.

It's true that Scarborough and his co-host and wife Mika Brzezinksi have spent three years accusing Trump of treasonous collusion with the Russians, but Trump's venom still seemed strange.

I, however, don't think it was strange at all.  Trump is one of the most calculating, rational people ever to occupy the White House.

So Trump set a trap.  On Tuesday (5/26), the Twitter mouse took the bait.

There have been several great columns on the debate over mask-wearing in public.  Scott McKay at American Spectator explains why the mask is essentially useless:  The mask is not an adequate defense against the COVID-19 virus, gang.

The virus checks in at somewhere between 0.06 and 0.14 microns, meaning it’s too small for any commercially available mask to effectively filter it out. The pores on an N95 mask, which are the best masks you’re reasonably going to find, are 0.3 microns.

The vast, vast majority of you are not going to have N95 masks but rather cloth masks, which perform far less well.

Over at Powerline, John Hinderaker  writes about how “wearing face masks has become a cultural divide….On the left, mask wearing has become a basic marker of good citizenship, no matter how silly it may be…”

Each day that the Obama administration fades into the past, its wrongdoings manage to wander back into the present.

After years of suppression, all sorts of strange events keep popping up to remind us of what little is left of the Obama. The list is so overwhelming and bizarre that it ensures that anything at any time can now appear.

And the result keeps reminding Americans of how corrupt were the years between 2009 and 2017 and how untruthful was the coverage of such institutionalized wrongdoing. Let us recount all the detritus of the failed Obama Presidency.

Sometimes, a good rant is all a writer can offer. Bear with me.

Last Friday morning (5/15), some 3,500 New Yorkers lined up at a Catholic church in Queens to receive free food hours before it even opened, ­according to the New York Police Department. Catholic Charities has reported a 200 percent increase in demand over the past month and a half.

By prolonging the coronavirus shutdown long after its core mission was accomplished, Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio have plunged tens of thousands of New Yorkers into poverty.

It needs to end. Now.

In the entire 2016–19 efforts to derail the Trump campaign, transition, and presidency, Hillary Clinton, Christopher Steele, and the FBI, Department of Justice, CIA, and other government bureaus have consistently sought to distort reality.

Some of our best and brightest have destroyed evidence, altered documents, lied, leaked, and pled amnesia when questioned about their reprehensible conduct. At each stage, they were aided and abetted by a compliant media.

The dissimulation over the past four years has fallen into four rough categories. Here are a few examples of each.

One has to wonder, do those on the left, including the media, actually think Joe Biden is a viable candidate for president?

Do they not realize that Nancy Pelosi is as senile as Joe?  Like Joe, she often slurs her words, suffers brain freezes mid-sentence, and spews gibberish.  The President was simply saying yesterday (5/19) what everyone can see, that “Pelosi is a sick woman. She’s got a lot of problems, a lot of mental problems.”

Biden is a lifelong corruptocrat, a known plagiarist, a pathological liar, and a truly mean and evil man.  You can catch a glimpse of just how mean in the film about Clarence Thomas; it was Biden who grilled him mercilessly during the hearings over Anita Hill's phony allegations.

Biden is a racist as well.  Pelosi is a lifelong power-mad lunatic.  They are the twin albatrosses around the neck of the Democrat Party.

It’s been a remarkably dumb week so far even for 2020. One of the highlights was watching the media hacks looking at each other and pretending they have absolutely no idea what Donald Trump is talking about when he repeatedly tweets “#OBAMAGATE.”

Remember, these are the same geniuses who are always wrong yet expect us to pay attention to their special insights into current events. Sheesh. On the upside, it’s becoming clear that we have a good shot at sending Nancy Pelosi back to Scat Francisco.

Plus, I want to intro you to an Army guy who is trying to take a swing seat away from Nancy’s bestest purple district buddy!

It was the model that shocked the world.

In mid-March, British researchers led by epidemiologist Neil Ferguson issued an alarming study that predicted 2.2 million Americans would die of COVID-19 by August without immediate, draconian measures to halt its spread.

As the virus rampaged across the country, more than 80 percent of Americans would be infected, the experts warned, causing massive shortages of hospital beds and intensive care units. Death and misery would be the new norm for months to come.

Ferguson’s computer model is responsible for the entire lockdown pandemic hysteria ever since.  Now it’s being rightly condemned as “the most devastating software mistake of all time, in terms of economic costs and lives lost.”

Should you wear a face mask? Medical authorities have sent confusing messages.

Both the U.S. surgeon general and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention exhorted Americans not to wear masks in January and February, then reversed themselves in April. Mask wearing is now mandatory in many workplaces and public spaces, but how much good does it do?

The science is inconclusive, but probably not much. Here’s why.

It might seem overheated to say electing Joe Biden would turn America and the world over to Communist China, but is it?  Not in the slightest.

Joe, you see, realizes an elementary truth about communism as practiced in China, Russia or wherever it takes power—it exists on corruption. Corruption was and is one of the motors of communist, indeed all totalitarian, societies, second only to nepotism.

Biden already knew this in 2014 when he flew to Beijing on Air Force Two accompanied by his crack-loving, womanizing son Hunter of Burisma fame. Hunter returned with $1.5 billion investment for his BHR Equity Investment Fund Management.

And what might the Chicoms expect their ROI will be?  Especially when they’ve got how the whole deal went down on surveillance camera.

Re: Your Failure to Find Precedent for Flynn Dismissal

Regarding the decision of the Department of Justice to dismiss charges against General Flynn, in your recent call with your alumni, you expressed great concern:

“There is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free. That’s the kind of stuff where you begin to get worried that basic — not just institutional norms — but our basic understanding of rule of law is at risk.”

Here is some help—if truth and precedent represent your true concern. Your statement is entirely false. However, it does explain the damage to the Rule of Law throughout your administration.

The COVID-19 pandemic has served one particular purpose: it has demonstrated for all to see how much the Left bends toward authoritarianism – aka fascism – while the Right fights for freedom.

From the moment Drs. Fauci and Birx (known to wags as “Midget and Scarf”) presented the president with Neil Ferguson's grossly overly alarmist computer model predicting mass death, leading them to advocate for a total shutdown of the economy, the Left's natural inclination to ruthless subjugation reared its ugly head.

So here we are, eight weeks into a national shutdown, and our petty tyrants with swelling chests are all over the place, particularly in the blue states.  It is elected Democrats, from governors to the mayors of small towns, who are giving orders like the drill sergeants they are at heart.

TTP background for Cashill, from the August 3, 2018 HFR:

 “In May of last year, Fox reported that “Murdered DNC Staffer Seth Rich Shared 44,000 Emails with Wikileaks.”  He was infuriated about John Podesta and the DNC rigging the primaries against Bernie Sanders and for Hillary.

Shortly afterwards, the suspicion is, Podesta hired thugs to murder him – then began inventing the cover-up myth that the Russians did it by hacking into DNC computers – impossible as the clock speeds of the email downloads show it was done on the inside, not via an external internet connection.”

“I am reliably informed that the NSA or its partners intercepted at least some of the communications between Mr. Rich and Wikileaks,” wrote attorney Ty Clevenger in a startling letter last week to Richard Grennell, Interim Director of National Intelligence.

Clevenger represents Ed Butowsky, a high-profile author and financial adviser who dared to ask questions about the late Seth Rich and was sued for his troubles.
