The Post-Partisan Emporium

  Going Postal in the Land of Lunacy Criminals, vigilantes, and good Samaritans Donald Jeffries On December 4, United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson was shot and killed outside the entrance to the New York Hilton Hotel. Right in the heart of what’s left of New York City. That seems like a lot of symbolism there. At least it didn’t happen on Wall Street. Don’t want to get those Occupy protesters riled up. Now, I haven’t paid all that much attention to this case. I have been lied to so often by our state controlled media, and every authority figure with a public platform, that I simply assume that these incidents are distorted, misrepresented, or fabricated theater. My first impression was that the gunman had on what appeared be a bizarre, lifelike mask, with a maniacal grin like the Joker plastered on it, reinforcing my innate skepticism. As it turned out, it wasn’t a mask, but the seemingly perpetual smile on the face of the assailant, as shown in all the photos published of him. Th...

  Civil War 2.0 Weather Report: A Date With Destiny “You hear that, Mr. Anderson?  That is the sound of inevitability.  It is the sound of your death.  Goodbye, Mr. Anderson.” –  The Matrix   I heard that Epstein got a clue to the inevitable – the last guard he tried to fist-bump left him hanging. Those who have an opposing ideology are considered evil. People actively avoid being near those of opposing ideology.  Might move from communities or states just because of ideology. Common violence. Organized violence is occurring monthly. Common violence that is generally deemed by governmental authorities as justified based on ideology. Opposing sides develop governing/war structures. Just in case. Open War. Volume VI, Issue 6 All memes except for the clock and graphs are “as found”.  I’ve kept the Clock O’Doom at the same place – though it will notch up quickly if there are any signs of the TradRight stiffening up. This is a moving situation, and thi...

  Hurricane Hell The American Eschaton Came Early to Appalachia Hurricane Helene has devastated the Appalachian region. My wife and I live nearby, in the Raleigh-Durham area of North Carolina. Though only a few hours away, we were thankfully untouched by the storm. My wife’s family lives in northwestern South Carolina. They had to evacuate their homes temporarily, but their homes are undamaged; given the utter devastation that struck just west of them, they are among the fortunate. The aftermath for the less fortunate is visible from space. But the view from space minimizes the damage. Far more has been lost than mere power lines. Entire towns have been washed away as if they never existed. Now, I do not generally cover “breaking news” here on the  Tree of Woe . Even the devastation wrought by Hurricane Helene would not, in ordinary times, have brought me to blog about it. But, as I have said before, we no longer live in ordinary times - we live in extraordinary times, made al...
