How Not to Be a Sh!thole Country: Lessons from South Africa by Joel Pollock (Breitbart editor)
[Amazon] The U.S is on the threshold of radical political change, following months of unrest. Incoming President Joe Biden pledges to "transform" America and "rip the roots of systemic racism out of this country." South Africa has attempted a similar kind of "transformation" since its transition to democracy in 1994. In both countries, a utopian left-wing movement has decided that formal, legal equality is insufficient, and that the constitution is an obstacle to progress. Before the U.S. embarks on a dangerous political journey, it should consider the lessons -- both positive and negative -- of South Africa's experience. This ebook draws on President Donald Trump's infamous alleged quip about "sh!thole countries." Though he denied making the profane comment, it is a useful shorthand for what neither the U.S. nor South Africa would wish to become -- but which "transformation" could condemn them to be.

-Land of the Free
Corporations as Government
[via Bongino Report]

(Site won't let me copy and paste but basically)

A Nevada bill would allow tech companies to form their own local governments. Companies with large amounts of land would be given the same authority as counties, that is, schools, courts, taxes and ordinances.
What could go wrong? Sisolak has obviously never read any SciFi. Just imagine living in Zuckerville.

#6  When we lived in Germany and Belgium we were required to get a national drivers license by the end of the first year of residence, necessary because the international drivers license we got before we left home was only good for twelve months. In both countries we had to provide documents showing legal residence and our current address, and our American license meant we didn’t have to pass the usual tests — a relief in Germany, as I was not at all certain I would be able to pass.

Dividing America : New Bill Allows Tech Companies To Create Governments
Added at 12:50 p.m. ET: The Populist Press piece points to an Associated Press article, which reports:

Planned legislation to establish new business areas in Nevada would allow technology companies to effectively form separate local governments.

Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak announced a plan to launch so-called Innovation Zones in Nevada to jumpstart the state’s economy by attracting technology firms, Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Wednesday.

The zones would permit companies with large areas of land to form governments carrying the same authority as counties, including the ability to impose taxes, form school districts and courts and provide government services.

The measure to further economic development with the “alternative form of local government” has not yet been introduced in the Legislature.

Muscle and blood and skin and bone

Sebastian Gorka: Democrats Working on Amendment for NSA, CIA to Target Americans as Terrorists
[Breitbart] The Biden administration is working with congressional committees to allow intelligence agencies to "target" American citizens as terrorists, Sebastian Gorka, host of the America First radio show, warned on Thursday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow.

Gorka stated, "I was informed yesterday by a private citizen that the Biden administration — and this comes on top of what Austin is doing with the military — but the Biden administration is working with the Senate and House intelligence committees to make amendments to an executive order from the 1980s — it’s called 12333 — to permit the NSA and the CIA to target U.S. citizens as domestic terror threats."

Executive Order 12333, titled "United States Intelligence Activities," lays out parameters for government surveillance of both U.S. citizens and aliens at home and abroad.

Posted by: Besoeker || 02/06/2021 12:28 Comments || Top||

#8  Are we headed down this path?

Without question -- unless the citizens fight back. It will take 2-3 years, but citizens need to persuade wealthy conservatives to fund the creation of an alternative network of technology providers: ISPs, server farms & cloud providers, security vendors, social media sites.

Plus the full panoply of political activists: full-time organizers, local party organizers who identify talent and recruit candidates for office, maintain voter databases and get them to the polls, election monitors.

Plus serious and professional full-time investigative journalists, as well as serious, experienced litigators.

If the above institutional levers are not developed, and fast, then the only options are either the road to serfdom or the bloody path. No use pretending we'll muddle through and come out ok.

#9  It will be the bloody path. There is no time to implement the things you suggest. And, I doubt those currently in power would allow it.
Posted by: Pakvi Roti || 02/06/2021 14:59 Comments || Top||

#10  The process is already started, Boss Shavirt4587. It turns oout America really is an Army of Davids.

Project Veritas is one of many groups already doing investigations and journalism. Michael Yon, Andy Ngo...y’all know even more names. They all take donations and some sell subscriptions. So that side of things is covered.

Parler, MeWe, CloutHub, and a surprising number of others are investing in infrastructure as well as creating new social media sites.

There are websites building lists of conservative businesses and services so those who choose can more easily direct their spending toward mutual support of those the Left is trying to purge from the national economy altogether.

It’s not as easy as despair, but none of this is “last full measure of devotion” hard.

#NY22: Republican Claudia Tenney Ousts Brindisi Leaving Democrats Just a Five Seat Majority
[LI] New York State Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte ended the race for New York’s 22nd Congressional District.

Republican challenger Claudia Tenney defeated Democrat incumbent Anthony Brindisi.
From Syracuse.com:

The ruling represents the most definitive answer to who won in an election saga with many twists and turns, though it’s not entirely over yet. Democrat Anthony Brindisi has promised to appeal at the state court, and he could seek to contest the election results at the House of Representatives itself.

Tenney, of New Hartford, is ahead of Brindisi by 109 votes. She earned 156,099 votes to Brindisi’s 155,989.

State Supreme Court Justice Scott DelConte ruled that counties and the state elections board are to certify the election, rejecting an effort by Democrat Anthony Brindisi, who occupied the seat until November 2020, to keep the election unofficial until his appeal to a higher court concludes.

In ruling against Brindisi, DelConte argued that the Democrat did not provide enough evidence that certifying Tenney would cause "irreparable harm," given that he still had a remedy at the federal level.

It’s not clear when Brindisi’s appeal will begin. His attorneys announced Friday morning that they will appeal DelConte’s rejection of several hundred ballots that Brindisi wanted counted.

The TCF Center Election Fraud – Newly Discovered Video Shows Late Night Deliveries of Tens of Thousands of Illegal Ballots 8 Hours After Deadline
[GatewayPundit] On Tuesday, November 3rd President Trump was ahead of Joe Biden in the swing state of Michigan by over 100,000 votes. This appeared to be another solid win for President Trump in Michigan with a greater margin than his 2016 victory. The ballot counting in Detroit, Michigan on election night took place at the TCF Center, formerly known as Cobo Hall.

This is the site where Detroit City Officials put cardboard over the windows to prevent the GOP observers from seeing in, where poll workers were militantly hostile to the GOP observers, and where hundreds of affidavits by election observers claim they witnessed voter fraud.

At least three election observers testified in sworn affidavits that they witnessed vehicles delivering fraudulent ballots to the TCF Center early in the morning on November 4th.

The Gateway Pundit requested the TCF video back in December! Last Friday we were sent the requested video.

And what we found is a political bombshell.

** At 3:23 AM The Gateway Pundit has exclusive video of a white van registered to the city of Detroit entering the gate into the TCF Center.

** At 3:25 AM we discovered video from a second camera showing three individuals unloading over 50 boxes of ballots in a hallway inside the TCF Building and just outside the counting room.

** The ballots were then wheeled away on carts into the ballot counting room.

** The van is then seen on video leaving the center about 25 minutes later.

** Then we saw the van returning an hour later, entering the TCF Center again and unloading more boxes of ballots.

** The white van was escorted by a black sports car for both ballot deliveries.

** The white van was allowed through an electronic gate to enter the TCF complex.

This is video proof of the fraud in Detroit, Michigan. It is exactly as the GOP observers described it to us back in November!

One of the big political faction has demonstrated both capability and intent to inflict economically devastating anarcho-tyrannical violence on the US.

The other side is proud of staying law-abiding and peaceful unconditionally.

Courts want to stay out of this and keep the peace so they appease the violent and violate the peaceful.

I'd support a Special Non-Political Investigator appointed by a Supreme courts of each state and vetted by that States actual voters..... not DC.

Let them uncover and publicly display the facts found. All interviews, sworn testimony recorded and accessible by the public. Sort out the ring leaders behind this Organized Coup.

Then present the facts in OPEN COURT allowing the public access via a Publicly accessible website stream to monitor the proceedings live.

Allow those willing to ID the ringleaders to plea out to a lesser charge of Mass Civil Rights Violations. With a sentence of 5 to 10 years and a life-time Ban from Government and any related association to it.

The Treasonous upper level civilians and Commercial ring leaders should get at a minimum 20 to life without Parole or Pardon. Forfeiture of all wealth, voting rights and etc....

In the case of Politicians, if found working as, or with Foreign Agents then maybe the death penalty should be considered?

All Legal courtroom activities to be broadcasted on live of TV just like the OJ trial.

NOTE: We MUST have Fair Honest trial according to the US Constitution. So there is no doubt we still have a Bill Of Rights in America.

-PC Follies
Tucker Carlson Alleges Bank of America Is 'Acting Like an Intelligence Agency
[Townhall] Since the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol Building, the call to hunt down "extremists" and "domestic terrorists" has intensified. In his inauguration speech, President Biden vowed to "confront and ...defeat" the "rise of political extremism, white supremacy, [and] domestic terrorism."

According to Fox News’s Tucker Carlson, the second largest bank in the United States is reportedly assisting federal law enforcement agencies in this effort unbeknownst to its customers.

Bank of America "is actively but secretly engaged in the hunt for extremists in cooperation with the government," he said. "Bank of America is, without the knowledge or the consent of its customers, sharing private information with federal law enforcement agencies. Bank of America effectively is acting as an intelligence agency, but they're not telling you about it."

According to the exclusive evidence his program obtained, BoA allegedly combed through the financial records from its more than 60 million customers looking for those who "fit a specific profile."
