THE ELECTION AND THE GEOPOLITICAL FALLOUT: PART TWO: THE FOOTBALL
Yesterday, you'll recall, I blogged about what I suspect may be one of the implications or "blowbacks" of the recent federal election, and the January 6th "epiphany" of Biden as President-elect by Congress. But there is another story that readers of this site sent me, and in numbers too significant to ignore, and I can see why. It's an important, huge story, even though it's not getting much attention. Here's one version of the story, shared by M.D.:
Biden urged to renounce sole control of US nuclear weapons
Here's the important parts:
A former US defense secretary has called on President-elect Joe Biden to reform the system that gives sole control of the nation's nuclear arsenal to the president, calling it "outdated, unnecessary and extremely dangerous."
The call from William Perry came the same day US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi spoke with the nation's top military leader about ensuring that an "unhinged" President Donald Trump not be able to launch a nuclear attack in his final days in office.
"Once in office, Biden should announce he would share authority to use nuclear weapons with a select group in Congress," said Perry, who served under President Bill Clinton.
...
Perry and Collina warn that presidents possess the "absolute authority to start a nuclear war.
"Within minutes, Trump can unleash hundreds of atomic bombs, or just one. He does not need a second opinion. The Defense secretary has no say. Congress has no role."
They then ask: "Why are we taking this risk?"
One may advance the argument that perhaps this change in policy is being advocated because of Biden's apparent mental decline. It would stand to reason, since there has been speculation both on the right and the left that Biden was chosen precisely because of that decline, and that he will either resign - or be forced to resign - from office for health reasons. He seems to be under that impression himself, having recently referred to his running mate as "president." Regardless of how one parses the comment, it is in my opinion a legitimate concern.
But I suspect that lying behind the comments and the rush to make the nuclear football part of a "committee" of some sort, lies a profoundly geopolitical reason. Yesterday, you'll recall, I blogged about the potential geopolitical fallout from the election, particularly as the members of "the Quad" nations - India, Japan, Australia, and Russia - are concerned. I argued that, regardless of how one views Biden or where one stands with respect to his incoming administration, his relationship with China and The Ukraine via his son is bound to be a large component of geopolitical calculation on the part of those countries. So while the talk of the article focuses on Mr. Trump, I believe the real concern lurking behind the public explanations is not Trump, but Biden, and the need to reassure those countries. I suspect, also, that this move is also because the deep state might also be concerned about Biden's relationships with China and possibly The Ukraine as well.
There's a further possible geopolitical calculation going on here, and that is that taking the nuclear arsenal out of the sole control of the presidency, and that is that such dispersal might not only be designed to weaken the presidency, but also to confuse potential enemies, particularly if whatever arrangement is designed includes moving the responsibility for the football from person to person, secretly. The expansion of the power of the deep state would be enormous and it would render "decapitation" strikes from potential enemies much more difficult.
In short, what we're watching with articles such as this, is the deeper agenda being laid out.
See you on the flip side...

Russia and StarLink

I found it intriguing that Mexico has brought in Cuban doctors again And is purchasing the Russian vaccine. Perhaps purchasers of the Russian vaccine offer a clue of alignments?
It also occurs to me that Obrador may be putting himself at risk by making these decisions but maybe someone has his back – we’ll see.
Don’t know much about football. When I see a team use the tactic handing off the football repeatedly trying to confuse the defense, my first thought is always, uh oh, look out for Dick Butkus. He always saw through and crushed such silly ploys.

Football, like other cultural icons,
has been covid1984’d.
Take for example, Wheel of Fortune;
it has been de-humanized.
No more shaking hands, pats on backs, no more audience, no more spouses hugging each other after winning the bonus puzzle, no more human action symbolizing closeness.
In football, no more crowds roaring; except on tape, joining other inhuman fixes – like canned laughter.
The fix ; are now in-your-face blatant, on replays – for everyone to see. Referee governance; like State governance, an in-your-face injustice to rule of law.
Audience share dropping like flies.
If it weren’t for illegal sports betting;
it would have been long gone,
w/covid1984 pulling the fatal trigger,
as it’s done to so much/many
w/o remorse.
C’mon, Y’all!!! Nukes are Old School. Rod of God weaponry is much better, as the Nashville incident revealed. A Bad Guys op turned aside….ever hear of people being warned ahead of time to get out before an explosion???
We are in the midst of a Global Operation…..the Pedo Empire, of centuries, is being taken down. This is NOT about personalities….this is about Good vs. Evil! We are staring it in the face & watching it happen, but most Normies are totally unaware of the underbelly of the atrocious evil…..wouldn’t believe it even if they were told about it.
I quote Eleanor Roosevelt here: “Great minds talk about ideas. Average minds talk about events. Small minds talk about people.”
Lou, that’s the part of Q that has us all doubting. If there were some more obvious results to that effect, we might all doubt it less.
As regards Nashville, not sure about weaponry used. Seems like a DEW and a hydrogen cloud inside from batteries with screwed up charging programs a most likely op.
A real basic question – we’re really being asked to believe Trump would be inclined to use nuclear weapons against someone in his last week in office ? Who ? Why ? Huh ?
Trumpy’s last week, before crucifixion, is about decapitating and castrating him, to humiliate the American male.
I take such things humorously, because the horde of feminists have a weak spot. They turn skirts again, instantly, when man is empty inside.
Total emptiness inside is a black hole, that swallows everything. In sci-fi Dune, that is the spot, where no female dare look upon.
It is called “lord of darkness”, in Druidry.
and his word shall carry death eternal to those who stand against righteousness
Plato’s Cave is uttermost warfare, where one engages in total battle, against one’s own instincts, that are hidden deep beneath the road.
The saint, “dýrlingr” in Old Norse, can be reconstructed as “deór-líc-ing” in Old English. The word can be rewritten as, “someone known, as having likeness to animal”.
Binding the wolf, and becoming head of dragon, is the act of mastering these instincts, to what end, one is known as saint.
The uniformed soldier is restrained, by the uniform, whereas Siegfried is unrestrained Geronimo, in European heathenry.
“Arrested adolescence” in uniform is a dangerous thing. That is how all empires are made, by papal filioque.
Papacy had to make a slave camp in America, to achieve an army of “arrested adolescence”, that became lost to its own origin.
Saxons were brought to Britain, precisely to avoid “arrested adolescence”, and the rise of a new empire of Cybermen.
That is why Doctor Who is who he is.

I can just imagine with their swarms of micro drones… FEMA orders 1 billion of them (like they did those bullets)… Presidential orders permit on the hint of a new nasty flu virus (or RNA operating system virus or hack) the immediate launching of said drones to within 10-20 minutes (before we all die, perhaps laughing) of the injection of the COVID-x vaccine operating system update. phew… thanks again Batman.
Yet they all looked so happy on the Starship Enterprise on the TV in the 60’s.
Our so-called elected president Joe the Witless is either a mercenary, demented, definitely corrupt, or all of the first and second. That leaves the party that put this clown up for the office in a pickle it either goes the way of the Whig party good riddance taking the other party with it they are both gebbeth anyone familiar with the Wizard Of Earthsea novel will know what I am referring to.
Marcos, I love it. “Joe the Witless”. Artfully done.

Well, well, well…
“Sheldon Adelson, the transnational casino magnate who is equally well known as a GOP megadonor and prominent booster of Israel, has died. He was 87.”
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/casino-mogul-conservative-megadonor-sheldon-adelson-dead-87
One wonders.
87 is on deaths bed.
But, I wonder if…
it wasn’t rushed ahead, for timing purpose$?
must a been cv1984.
so who has that empire now?
His Israeli wife, who heavily influenced him.
I truly wonder if this request was for altruistic reasons. Pelosi does not appear to have the intellectual framework to play muggins (dominoes), let alone something as complicated as solitaire or checkers. Chess is beyond her scope, and Go, well, let’s not go there at all. But her controllers are intelligent, and may have game planned this ahead. If she, or one of her designates, had received the “football” it is more likely they would be the real threat at the moment. Her “Trump derangement syndrome” is so strong that she deserves to be removed as speaker for the same reasons she demands the removal of Trump. This alone makes her request something to which we all should take notice! In my opinion, this is dangerous. It now increases the likelihood that some “fool” will be equipped with these codes, and, like the Clinton’s emails, will be compromised for the purpose of another “false flag”. Her controllers are definitely capable. Congressional security is definitely breached with all manner of Chinese agents. This is the perfect justification for the exercise of “agreement nullification” by means of a national or foreign tactical maneuver, and, once again, making them “agreement incapable” with the U.S. looking to be guilty. I’m learning now the real meaning of an old conservative observation: “behind the mask of every Democrat, you will find a sorry, rascist a**.” This day, Republicans are not any better.
Let there be no mistake. Donkeys aren’t just beasts of burden, they are often ridden–by someone!
Heh! Indeed, they are. Makes one wonder about which (or maybe all) usurping group(s) the traditional loyal opposition democrats are carrying supplies, water, finances, and now, ideologies, for on their backs. Last count there were six groups foraging in the background with rob, replicate, and replace characteristics in red with one in the middle of a name change.
… ‘and Go, well let’s not go there’. Yes,
she makes Dumb & Dumber absolute geniuses
She is absolutely Mad; in all its
permutations and derivative combinations.
Anyone trusting the Democratic Party is being played for dummies. Therefore, this “trust” is all theatre of the absurd.
Behind the scenes are those using this as a nuclear crisis of opportunity. Why, the permutations and possibilities are frighteningly Mad.
Whose ever behind this coup is an enemy of not only the U.S.A.; but other nation states, and mankind himself.
As the election fiasco has broadcast globally; the Democratic Party & Republican Party are both enemies of the State. Other nations are now on notice; that the asylum’s inmates are now de facto, in charge.
Unless Trump’s faction has a few aces up there sleeve, to turn this global game of power around; it’s curtain time for global sanity & the safety “they” keep tooting about.
Since “they’re” habitual liars, it’s a no-brainer that they give two hoot about safety, nor sanity.
That they DON’T give two hoots
about safety, nor sanity!
“Inmates in charge of the asylum” – that says it all.
All this foofarah (a real word) is of course political – to further cast fear and doubt into the public mind. (Loosh generation, also?) It should be treated as such, and cast into the appropriate circular file…
However, there is a serious aspect to this matter. I lived through the Cold War, and mostly on military bases. I learned a lot. The reason One Person held the nuclear football was TIMING. With Soviet ballistic missile submarines just off both coasts, the time-of-flight to the Capitol, missile fields, and such was on the order of 10-20 minutes. During that possible time-of-flight, military types had to observe, verify, cross-check, and pass the info ‘upstairs’ through multiple command layers to enable a response by the Button Pusher. Not much time.
All of the above was why One Person had the command authority to launch. Time. (Lack thereof.) Plus, other nations had to know that the Button would indeed have time to be pushed, if they launched. MAD, in its core function.
So, I regard any attempt to ‘scatter’ that responsibility as extremely dangerous. Other nations could take that move as now-favoring a first strike. Get ’em before the committee can agree to launch.
If there is any treason in the air, I would put this proposal as first in line…
I’m a military brat as well.
I was a military brat, too. My dad was stationed in a small, but critical Central American base during the late ’50s and early 60’s. He was on one of the flights that left from an army base there on a secret mission in uniform without dog tags and a gun without ammunition. Destination unknown. Half-way across the gulf the captain said the mission was aborted due to POTUS executive orders. When I explained to him about Operation Northwoods, he asked for the date. When I gave it to him, he turned white. He was the right size, right skin tone and right age to be confused as a Cuban soldier. When we talked about conspiracies in an analytical way from that point on, my dad listened.
Damn, that’s close to home… (Were you born yet?)
I was not even conceived. I was conceived shortly there after. The question is, had I been born, who would I have been today?
I agree!
Count me in w/the brat pack.
My father was a West Pointer and I had a principal appointment to Annapolis.
Born in San Francisco at Presidio
and on to Fort Worth six weeks later.
Oh, and my father worked a Wright Patterson during the mid-sixties.
He taught at the Air Force Academy
when it was first realized;
teaching a strength & materials class.
RB, a small world! My father and maternal grandfather were army doctors at the Presidio towards the end of WWII. The hospital at the Presidio got most of the wounded coming-back from Okinawa, Iwo Jima, et al. Tens of thousands of mangled servicemen within a year. It must have been soul-searing, working there. I imagine he had his own version of PTSD.
(To this day, I distinguish between ‘small wars’ and ‘serious wars’. Subsequent generations really have no appreciation of the scale of the casualties in WWII – not to mention WWI.)
Oh, and I worked at Wright Patterson during the mid-seventies. One time, I was even in the building ‘reputed’ to have alien remains. Unfortunately (or fortunately), I did not know that at the time. No sleuthing attempted…
My 102 year old mother in-law worked at Wright-Patterson. Her husband was military. Small world indeed.
Yeah, my uncle Kenny was in Iwo Jima as well as some other islands while in the Marines. It was brutal, bodies in the water, on the shore. I found out later in life that he was never the same. He worked for the Forestry Dept but died in a car accident at 50, probably drunk. Lee Marvin was there also and talked about the brutality. He was shot in the rear. He remained true to fellow marines he served with till he died. I think there were about 50,000 that flooded the island, and it that was well dug in by the Japanese.
My uncle Don was a prisoner of war for a few years and he would tell us children about the torture the Japanese did to the prisoners. Very very graphic and brutal. He didn’t sugar coat it.
My husband was born in Iran 1952, his father was stationed there. He recently had to apply for SS. They said he wasn’t a citizen of the u.s. and had to apply for a new SS number. Even though he was in the air force 3 years and paid into social security over 40 years.
Sandygirl: Yeah, I have two brothers who were born overseas while my parents were stationed in that country. They have all the usual paperwork to prove their citizenry, but still get ‘hassled’ when applying-for or renewing clearances. I believe they still have a certain ‘insecurity’ about that aspect…
Don B: Lee Marvin was talking in a late-night show. He said he was no hero; the person who he regarded as a hero was a Beach Master at Iwo Jima who was guiding-in landing boats while exposed under enemy fire. His name was Bob Keeshan. If that name rings a long-ago bell for you, yes, he later became a kiddie favorite: Captain Kangaroo…
Sandy Girl, sorry to hear that. Its a shame that the government is either so mired in detail dogma or lacks the compassion for our military people, who make a lot of sacrifices for the country. My grandfather came here in the early 1900s and joined the military for WWI. He was in the Calvary because of his riding skills in Italy. He raced the nephew of pope XIII(Pecci) when he was 10 years old and lost.
Yes Goshaws I heard about that with Captain Kangeroo. Marvin in one of his interviews said, with self deprecating humor, he was yelling for a medic and someone piped up and said “shut up, everybody has been hit”. A lighter side of the mess.
Agreed. No amount of technical tactics repair the problem of untrustworthy personnel.
How convenient that there’s talk about that famous “football.” Rule changing at any time when it suits an agenda (of the Party, for the Party, and in cahoots with the Party), changes legal fallout on election issues, and clumsily opens communications networks to further exploitation (like there’s not enough vulnerability already), plays into the cyber cons of RU, Iran, N Korea, and, of course, the Party of the east. They’re just the bigger players. The purported incoming administration has already been thrown under the bus, in one’s humble opinion, of course. That weak link is broken.
Note the recent sanctions pertaining to Iran and that infamous mid-eastern “base” that has taken up residency within Tehran. ISIL/ISIS, no doubt, has favor in their ranks, too. When source code is compromised (and has been for months) one can easily speculate who is already peeking into presumably secure networks (that (most assuredly) includes, Big Tech).
The “football” is the shiny object that sparkles to lure a big-mouth-bass to bite. Talk is cheap when they must.
Richard,
Loved your shiny football lure analogy!

Yesterday my wife hit a little jackpot/$222.
Yesterday I was interrupted writing nonstop.

Today, more life interrupted
Yesterday the President was in control[a $ock puppet known as President].
A Frozen faced, botoxed Mandarin puppet, w/Kabuki syndrome; is now playing in a live-in-action horror[sounds like] power play in Swampland. Stranger things have happened; but this is up there in the chem-trailed stratosphere of high octane speculation gone bad, and live at the same time.
Of course; the Mad Magazine, gone video future, is stating that the screaming banshee is saving the day by replacing ‘the good’ orange toupee ‘guy’. Unhinged is the group tested, crated word being used in the mad magazine sewage stream brainwashing narratives.
I can’t help but laugh at this Dr. Strangelove madness gone live-in-action.
This is Cosmic theatre are its Looney tune best.
It’s a mad mad mad galaxy!
I would laugh as well. Like something out of Monty Python. Unfortunately this the real life theater of the absurd.
I went to the orginal post, Yahoo news ( A yahoo is hillybilly for a not so well informed person. We usually use that term while giggling).
Thought I would look into the comment section( I enjoy seeing other thoughts on a subject) and found the following:

‘Cool, Calm & Collected’ Rolling Stone lyrics:
Well she’s very wealthy it’s true
So in that she’s one up on you
She’s dressed all in red, white, and blue
And she always knows more than you
She’s so affected
cool, calm, collected
She knows who to smile to today…
Like the song lyrics

The plot, as they say; thickens.
Robert, one of the reasons for my ire with respect to our nation’s leadership is stated clearly in one of the above remarks. Pursuant to remarks you made days ago regarding “personal experience” having created said attitude, that one is a partial answer. It was never a question of whether military service was an honorable thing. It was a question of whether one’s service could be used in a dishonorable way.
I seen it the good, the bad and the ugly.
I’ve seen and experienced hell.
I seen courage, and it’s counterpart.
I was used; and did unconscionable acts.
I passed the test; only to do a 180.
They couldn’t comprehend my awakening.
I was set-up several times.
Once, a major in the Army CID hit me head on, scrapped my hair clean off the top of my head. I was worried about being bald. The doctor kept telling me it would grow back. It did. When people asked how long I’d been out of the war, I replied, This long – taking my hair & stretching it out arm’s length.
I have more stories, like the $222 today. All true! But, believe me, I don’t tell them, because they are unbelievable!
Robert, I would revere your stories as I do some of the tales of my grandmother who survived the Depression and mothered a dozen children under three husbands. She fought a very different kind of war through her first two, and birthed the bulk of her children in a loving home with the third. With respect to their poverty, some slaves in the Antebellum South had it easier than they. They persevered. My family was dirt poor. This is another one of those reasons why the lessons of history are so very important. Having such fond memories of hers, I would treasure yours as a brother.
Many unsung true heroes w/true grit; braving heart wrenching landscapes; made all the more poignant, when raising families.
Yet, therein is true joy of life:
loving families.
I was thinking more like ‘Sailor Beware’–with Biden and Harris playing the Martin and Lewis roles. I feel generous. I will let you attach which ever political equivalent to each role. I already have my candidates for the job.
Leaders of a nations protected under America’s nuclear umbrella may respond to sharing of The Ball by developing their nation’s own nuclear weapons.
Yep, because their intelligence may know one global plan of the elitist was having the US take a first strike and not retaliate. If several people are envolved in this decision there will be more plausible deniability for why this was done. A sure fire way to eliminate the awakened US giant. This would leave our nucleurless allies at a distinct disadvantage in the future.
Imagine if we took a major hit and our crops became too contaminated to consume for generations to come. We are one of the major bread baskets of the world. How many would starve worldwide?
Say good buy to the Amazon and much of the remaining forests globalists, the people in other countries will do what it takes to feed themselves.
Be sure that scenario has been and is considered. That’s why so many have bunkers built in southern hemisphere. The gambit runs that the prevailing winds will keep the fallout above the equator. That makes Brazil, Argentina, Oz and NZ all the more pivotal in these scenarios.
Sharing authority with a “select group in congress” means a power to veto or sanction would be conferred on this select group acting in the interests of the deep state. Given that the US will no longer be a global superpower according to Klaus Barbie and Co, the concomitant of that in their eyes would be a check on the exercise of its nuclear sovereingty qua the Presidential monopoly. In any event, it appears to be another misdirection when we all know that the real weapons are of the Cuban embassy variety and the new ‘software of life’ operating system. Nuclear is so last century.
If United States is attacked, the President (Trump or Biden) can launch on his own a nuclear attack. In all other cases there is the two man rule. So neither Trump or Biden can launch an attack just because they feel like it.
Either Pelosi is illiterate , or this is just a gimmick to underline how dangerous Trump is.
Pelosi is illiterate and yes it is a gimmick.
Disagree. She’s an insane sociopath.
That too, obvs.
I disagree Don SHE MORE DANGEROUS SHE IS STUPID.
You don’t give a child who plays with matches and lights fires a flame-thrower. Likewise, you don’t give a scorned woman the keys to an arsenal to toss a nuclear weapon at a former POTUS. Especially, Pelosi.
that sounds like agreement
she does seem everybit the unhinged, illiterate psychopath who loves to play with matches. so do all her follow ons – AOC, Omar, Cheney, Harris
wow sure would have been nice to have gotten over DNC’s primary voter fraud and gotten a slightly saner candidate in Gabbard up there.
in case anyone is interested:
first section of the war powers act.
50 U.S. Code § 1541 – Purpose and policy
(a)Congressional declaration
It is the purpose of this chapter to fulfill the intent of the framers of the Constitution of the United States and insure that the collective judgment of both the Congress and the President will apply to the introduction of United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, and to the continued use of such forces in hostilities or in such situations.
(b)Congressional legislative power under necessary and proper clause
Under article I, section 8, of the Constitution, it is specifically provided that the Congress shall have the power to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying into execution, not only its own powers but also all other powers vested by the Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof.
(c)Presidential executive power as Commander-in-Chief; limitation
The constitutional powers of the President as Commander-in-Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, are exercised only pursuant to (1) a declaration of war, (2) specific statutory authorization, or (3) a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.
If only Congress were interested…
Nailed it again, Dr. Farrell! There’s no way this is about Trump. It’s much more likely, as you say, out of concern for a dementia-addled Biden (and his soon-to-be successor, the totally unqualified Harris) and/or a Deep State power grab. To the extent it is about Biden/Harris, I’m sure the concern is coming not just from inside the U.S., but from outside it as well.
I wonder if other countries were also concerned at the sight of the candidates for the Dem nomination this time, some of whom may have been even less qualified than Harris. If I were Russia, I’d be somewhat alarmed at the prospect of mental adolescents being in charge of the American nuclear button.
Whew… they’re sure getting a lot of mileage out of Trump’s last few days in office! Next up: a Patriot Act 2.0 to ensure nothing like the “storming” of the Capitol (which I can’t write without laughing…) ever happens again.
“MENTAL ADOLESCENTS”,,,,,perfect descriptive term. An outhouse full of self serving lunatics who would and will and are stopping at nothing to achieve their aims. All should be worried.
Yes, sounds like obfuscation. And by the way, how will a Bidenenko (of Ukrainian fame 🙂 ) Space Force look?
Excellent question/observation!
Hopefully, it won’t exist; except, on paper only.
[Space is the final ‘ring’ of power.
… at least in this near-future time frame
Oops! Mind-Control is up there 2;
After all this time I still can’t rap my mind around how nuclear weapons can be used to actually gain anything other than destroying pretty much every living thing, short and long term. It’s an evil I’ve never been able to fathom.
Fear is their ultimate weapon. Deterrence is the word they use. And they continue to use it because it works.
Generally. Sometimes, these conditions create a different class of monster. Pushed to its limit, it will become deranged–and brutally attack its master with attendant savagery. These people are creating monsters and do not realize it.
So True!
I think they know what they’re doing.
I agree. However, you are thinking about a class of “dooms day” weapons. I don’t think these would be used only as a last resort in response to a global threat. I suspect the use of 4th, 5th or 6th generation nuclear weapons might well be in play now. We are not really sure what each nation state’s arsenal has in their hands with respect to this technology. I also suspect that these same actors use “nuclear” as an umbrella for all types of exotic weapons. At a fundamental they utilize some type of atomic response to external stimuli. Not only will they be used in the next war, I suspect facsimiles of them have already been deployed and utilized in the theater of military action and disguised until other names. In war all tools will be used when needed if they can be disguised.
Definitely an umbrella term[IMO].
Like MADeleine Albright’s
context of high-tech, nxt-gen weapons
What’s the sense of having them
if we don’t use them.
“If we have to use force,
it is because we are America.”
Nukes are/ where gateway technology/ tree ?
& not so much about US …but about the “others” …out there … WE had/ have ta hold/catch up to “them” ( to STOP another tower of Babel “moment” ) cuz folks “they” are on way/coming back (& remember folks neither side was very good to US ) ???
