Just a simple question:
Is the pushback against Trump, BREXIT, Le Pen, Salvini, Orban, et. al just…
The Rich Progressive Globalist Left, clinging to their Status and Quo?
Think about it. They have had their own way for so long, collected so much vig and graft, been comfortable flailing folks with unprincipled law, and indulging their most immoral urges with impunity for so long they lost touch with the bulk of us normal working folks.
Then we reached our limit, grasped our vote, and smote them with it.
Outraged at this “unacceptable” threat to their comfortable nest and government money teat, of course they are going to throw a tantrum.
“Mummy! I want my special Status and my Quo ( and Quid…) back!”
Should that be true, the correct response is to spank their collective bottoms (again…) and send them to bed without their (cushy government) Dinner.
Musings from the Chiefio 
Watching Sargon of Akkad using the odd “woke” required pronoun, I’ve decided I ought to declare “My Pronoun”. I’ve chosen:
“The Wise One”.
So, any SJW Types wishing to refer to me as “he” (or even “she”, “it”, or “they”) relize you MUST use “The Wise One” or be guilty of not using my preferred pronoun…
So, I was wondering about the delay in posts by E. M. Smith. I assume ‘the wise one’ enjoyed the Thanksgiving festivities.
Now I am wondering what ‘the wise one’ thinks of the news that Kelly Mehlenbacher, recently of the Harris campaign, is now with the Michael Bloomberg’s campaign [previously worked on Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign].
By my count that is 3 seriously bad choices.
Kelly Mehlenbacher gets a pronoun of ‘far from wise’, I think.
‘Far from wise’, also know as ‘insanity’, has aired dirty campaign laundry.
Harris will soon drop out of the running.
Bloomberg will go nowhere.
Where will ‘far from wise’ go next?
The public sceptism with all UK politics predates Brexit, maybe commencing with 9/11. The unprincipled laws (and wars – @ USD 8 Trillions is it?) commenced around then. The steady draining of confidence in a system putrid at the top, the latest on Andrew Windsor hastening the process. While instinctively knowing that no real solutions are being offered for our economic malaise that limps along, while castrating honest savers, and requiring constant QE. Not looking good …
(“Huge explosion” just reported all across London).
@Nancg &John H.:
Something about Thanksgiving spread between two houses, cooking the turkey, making 4 vegetables, delivering the warm buns, etc. etc. All while not really sleeping during 24 hours of labor ending with a new graddaughter a bit before midnight… then being awake a few hours after that… then sleeping 15hours to catch up… But sure, I really ought to have worked in more postings. 8-)
As per Kelly M.: Who? ;-)
@Julian Jones:
For real on the explosion thing? Guess I’ll stop binge watching Gutfield and check Sky…
Heard over 50 mile radius … Meteor … Sonic boom … No reports of damage, BBC just reporting ‘loud bang’ …
The Sky News crawler reports a “loud bang” being reported from accross the whole of the country.
Perhaps a meteor?
Looks like RAF aircraft scrambled to respond to a 7700 squawk (in flight emergency) boomed the city.

You asked:

I think that they still want to rescue the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) agreements (really treaties) that if passed would have set up a globalist hegemony of The First World. Both as ‘Treaties’ would have been treated as ‘superior’ to The United States Constitution and would have set up industrial councils that could impose regulations on such things for example as ‘trade in small arms including ammunition’. This is the Etats Uni/European Union aim. Both Brexit and Trump are threats to this. Trump has already withdrawn from them but a 4 year break and a resumption by a socialist US president would make that a bump in the road – except that the TTP and TTIP would need to be passed as a treaty by the Senate, requiring that the socialists get a sweeping victory of the type all thought would occur with Hillary. This is the reason for the unedifying and continual attacks on President Trump and the shenanigans prior to the last election. Getting TTP and TTIP was far more important than quibbles about spying on an opposition party candidate or putting placemen into all departments of state, the TLAs and the armed services. This all took 8 years of hard political slog.
Brexit as led to the same unedifying spectacle more cross party than the USA, as the business oriented Tory grandees were looking at how much money could be made and Labour were in favor of the sinecure jobs in the EUrocracy and the slow but accelerating removal of the trappings of an independent state from the UK. This is why pains were taken by the then US Administration to warn UK that it would be at the back of the lin….. [cough] queue for trade if the population voted for Brexit.
We were so very close to the globalist dreams of unelected members of the Bilderberg group or Club of Rome. Had Hillary won and Brexit vote been Remain, it would all be over now. However, there is one last chance in the next year it requires both Brexit be overthrown and turned into remain and Trump to be defeated in November. Everything is being thrown into these aims by the globalists. Billionaires are literally outspending political parties in their countries (and in the case of Soros in all countries) to get the globalist result. There must be a lot of money and control in it for them.
@Ian W: I concur with most of what you say. I’ve read the text of the TTP, and it attempts to do what you mention. However, the treaty is not Constitutional. The U.S. Government does not have the power to subvert the Sovereignty of the People, and of the States, or of the primacy of the Constitution itself.
Many things are connected. https://www.marxist.com/marxists-join-biggest-ever-climate-strike-for-system-change-not-climate-change.htm
My preferred pronoun is “The one who does not give a damn about your preferred pronoun”. (not in reference to the Wise one).
So take your zir, and zip it.
Seems to fit about here
