Reader’s Links for December 31st, 2023 and a Happy New years to all our readers!

Posted on by

Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.

  4. Muslims shutting down highway

    Will Doug Ford tell the protestors if they are involved in this protest, we will actively look to identify you and follow up with financial sanctions and criminal charges?

    It is against the law in Canada to shut down any street, off/on highway ramps or highways unless……..

  5. Muslims shutting down streets, ramps, expressway, major highways

    Will Justine Trudeau do something about “this small group that muscles in” and will he make a choice as leader, in terms of the country, will he “tolerate” these people?Will he take some extreme measures to stop them? They are extremists who don’t believe in Canadian law. They are often misogynistic, racist, they have divisive impacts on the communities, the country.

    Will they be thrown in prison without any charges, and left there?

  6. 2. Very early on in this scamdemic, a senior German Cardinal warned that the likes of Bill Gates, George Soros, and the Davos Economic Forum head Klaus Schwab, are using the coronavirus pandemic to force the world under “total control” of globalists “super rich elites”.

    Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Mueller, who also serves as a high-ranking judge at the Vatican Court, made these comments during an interview in Austria’s St. Boniface Institute.

    “People who sit on the thrown of their wealth, are seizing an “opportunity to push through their agenda.” The pandemic has lead to chaos and turmoil in part do the elites wanting to snatch an opportunity to bring people in line via a global “surveillance state”.

    The Cardinal also warned globalists are making efforts to bring a new man” into the world, created in their own image and likeness, that has nothing to do with democracy.

    Cardinal Raymond Burke, one of the most powerful Catholics in the US, gave a homily in which he savaged “secular forces” who want to “make us slaves” to their Godless and murderous agenda”.

    Cardinal Robert Sarah also warned that Christianity is on the decline and western society is lost, because if we “cut from God, we are lost and God is silent”. western civilization is in a profound state of decadence and ruin due to people’s obsession with materialism and that the situation is similar to right before the collapse of the Roman Empire. The elites care for nothing but increasing the luxury of their daily lives, and the people have been anesthetized by ever more vulgar entertainments”.

    Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano “We see heads of nations pandering to this suicide of Western culture and it’s Christian soul, while the fundamental rights of citizens and believers are denied in the name of health emergency that is revealing itself more and more fully as instrumental to the establishment of an inhuman faceless tyranny. The Great Reset sought to inflict “ the imposition of liberticidal measures, hidden behind tempting promises of ensuring a universal income and cancelling individual debt”.

    We were warned early on, unfortunately the bought media, the collaborators, have done a stellar job of burying the TRUTH. Should we continue tolerating these ingratiating, deplorable, traitors?

      At this point – after over _100_ attacks on American bases, where American soldiers were seriously injured – we should give at least one Twisted Raghead a headache. In Iran.

      We’re playing with proxies on dusty bases. That’s Iran’s game: they set the rules, we follow them. PTrump will inherit a mess.

      Bibi also fiddled with fake reprisals for real missiles shot from Gaza. He’d order some empty warehouse blown up, then promote it as a “strong response”.

  14. Chinese leader Xi Jinping promised the reunification of Taiwan with mainland China during his year-end address on Sunday.

    Tensions between China and Taiwan remain high, and Taiwanese voters are set to participate in the island’s elections on Jan. 13. Xi has repeatedly affirmed China’s stance that Taiwan is a part of China and that it must be reunified, by force if necessary.

    “All Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should be bound by a common sense of purpose and share in the glory of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,” Xi said in Sunday’s address.

    The speech was the second time in a matter of days that Xi addressed the Taiwan issue. Xi also vowed to reunify Taiwan on Tuesday during a symposium in Beijing commemorating the 130th anniversary of the birth of Mao Zedong, the founding father of Communist China.

  15. BREAKING: Bill Clinton to be Named as “Doe 36” in Epstein Court Documents
    by Cristina Laila Dec. 31, 2023 12:40 pm198 Comments

    Former president Bill Clinton will be named in the Jeffrey Epstein court documents set to be unsealed this coming week.

    Bill Clinton was good friends with Epstein and traveled on his private jet dubbed ‘Lolita Express’ over two dozen times and according to pilot logs, underage teenagers were on the flights with Clinton.

    Earlier this month, it was reported that dozens of Jeffrey Epstein’s high-profile associates are in for a New Year’s surprise as they may be named in court documents set to be released in the first days of 2024.

    Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, who previously called for all material related to him to be made public, was the only John Doe identified by name before ABC’s report on Bill Clinton.

    Judge Loretta Preska, however, stayed her order, which gives attorneys representing the “Does” time to convince the court to keep names under seal, so it is unclear if the public will ever see the full Epstein client list.

    “Hundreds of sealed court filings pertaining to the late sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein are set to be made public this week, and several prominent names — including Britain’s Prince Andrew and former President Bill Clinton — are expected to appear in the documents.” ABC News reported.

    According to ABC News, Bill Clinton is named as “Doe 36” in “more than fifty redacted filings.”

    “Former President Clinton, who ABC News has learned is identified as “Doe 36,” is mentioned in more than fifty of the redacted filings, according to court records. Several of those sealed or redacted entries are focused on an effort by Giuffre’s lawyers in mid-2016, first reported by ABC News, to subpoena the two-term Democratic president for deposition testimony about his relationship with Epstein.” the outlet reported.

    A witness alleged she saw Bill Clinton and “2 young girls” on Epstein’s pedophile island in the Caribbean; however, Clinton’s spokesman denied the claims.

    In July 2022, Gateway Pundit lawyers Marc Randazza and Jay Wolman of the Randazza Legal Group, along with GP General Counsel John Burns, filed a motion to intervene in the Guiffre v. Maxwell case in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

    As a media intervener, TGP requested the Court to unseal all records identifying Epstein’s Sex Clients.

    You can read a copy of TGP’s brief below.

    In August 2022, the federal judge overseeing the case denied Gateway Pundit’s efforts to unseal the documents.

    HOWEVER, Gateway Pundit filed an appeal to the federal Second Circuit Court of Appeals, demanding that GP and the public be allowed to access the Epstein Sex Client list.

    ** See HERE for GP’s Opening Appellate Brief.

    On February 27, 2023, a “John Doe” interested party (a person whose identity had been sealed by the court because of their affiliation with Epstein) filed a Brief opposing Gateway Pundit’s appeal and asking the Court of Appeals to deny the brief.

    In August 2019, Jeffrey Epstein was found hanging in his cell from his bunk bed with a prison bedsheet wrapped around his head.

    Epstein, who is 6 feet tall, reportedly secured the bedsheet to the top bunk bed and wrapped the sheet around his neck.

  16. The man MTA cops fatally shot in Queens after he allegedly groped a woman was an armed parolee who had been carrying an Uzi, authorities said.

    Bashe McDaniel, 52, of East Harlem, had 12 previous arrests, five for misdemeanors and seven of them felonies, and was out on parole for a gun charge, MTA Police said.

    Cops are now probing how and where McDaniel obtained the semi-automatic.

  19. China’s Night of the Long Knives
    by John Mills Dec. 31, 2023 2:40 pm127 Comments

    Totalitarian leaders need two things to survive. Unquestioned support of their “inner circle” and a pretense for action, i.e. an incident, real or made up. The decisive point in time for the rise of totalitarianism in Germany in the 1930s were the decisive events of German leader of June 30 to July 2, 1934, normally referred to as “The Night of the Long Knives”. In a swift action, the ascending German Leader took action against the SA, the Sturm Abeilung, or the Brown Shirts. The leader of the National Socialists could not have gotten to this point without the Brown Shirts, the rough, violent, undisciplined element vital to his rise. Yet he was on shaky ground and for years been developing the Black Shirts as his even more inner circle. In several days of violence, the German leader used his Black Shirts to round up, execute, and eliminate the Brown Shirts citing their “crimes”. It was classic, thuggish, treacherous, no boundaries, totalitarianism. Mr. Hitler couldn’t live without the Brown Shirts until he needed them no more and dispensed with them like a used plastic utensil via the Black Shirts.

    Mr. Xi is showing similar traits in his consolidation of power within the Chinese Communist Party. He took power in 2012 but really didn’t begin his slow motion Night of the Long Knives until the unprecedented Party Congress in October 2022 where Xi had his predecessor unceremoniously and infamously marched out of the room. A tactic the German Leader never performed, but something Mr. Hussein (an admirer of the German leader) of Iraq did routinely and would have been proud of. This Party Congress marked the unprecedented third term election of Mr. Xi, from this point on, it was game on, as Xi created an accelerated wave of purges that resulted in the large-scale purge of late December 2023 where Xi proffered an unequivocal teaching point and life lesson to anyone that might consider opposing him for leadership of the CCP. This was Xi’s “Night of the Long Knives”.

    Xi cleans house on scale

    Returning from Uzbekistan in September 2022, after browbeating Putin for failures in Ukraine, rumors of Palace Intrigue and coup attempts in China exploded. Xi had to act decisively because in October 2022 was the Party Congress. The White Paper Revolution occurred right after the Party Congress on a massive scale and spooked Xi and the entire CCP leadership. All these events led to the December 2023 “Night of the Long Knives, nine Generals and Admirals have been eliminated en masse by their dismissal from the National People’s Congress.

    A dark comedy on Soviet leadership palace intrigue was “The Death of Stalin”. Xi tries to be more cerebral and sophisticated, but likely the same dark comedic chaos is going on right now. The current nine flag officers removed include three former commanders or vice commanders of the PLA Rocket Force; one a former Air Force chief and one a Navy commander responsible for the South China Sea. Four officers were responsible for equipment.

    Before the batch of nine removed during the Night of the Long Knives, immediately prior, other replacements were made:

    Li Shangfu (Joint Chief’s Chairman equivalent): Missing, likely dead

    Wei Fenghe, Li’s predeceser: Missing, likely dead

    Wang Shaojun (Central Guard Unit Commander, no real American equivalent): Dead

    Qin Gang (Secretary of State Equivalent): Missing, possibly executed
    Big Pharma In Panic After Dr. Oz Drops Bombshell

    Top commander of the rocket force, Li Yuchao, also disappeared alongside his deputy Liu Guangbin and former deputy Zhang Zhenzhong (these may be the three referred to in news releases of the current nine flag officers removed).

    BRICS Conference didn’t go quite right

    The highly touted Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa (BRICS) in August 2023 was supposed to be the international equivalent of the October 2022 Party Congress. This was intended to be the Gold Medal Ceremony of the Olympics like effort of China to displace the United States. Up until this time, Xi was on a roll of success after success:

    Flying spy balloons around the world and especially one over the American Missile fields and bomber bases with no pushback: Check

    Expanding the Spy Base in Lourdes, Cuba: Check

    Humiliating Yellen during her visit: Check

    Pretending to be interested in what Blinken had to say during his visit: Check

    Expanding the Spy Base in Lourdes, Cuba to Military Training and announcing it as Blinken flew back to America: Check

    Allowing vague and absurd virtue signaling from John F. Kerry while being the largest polluter on the planet: Check

    Taking over supervision of the Drug Cartels in the ungoverned space of Mexico and making Fentanyl in a much more efficient fashion: Check

    Using the Fentanyl produced in Mexico under Chinese supervision and killing 10,000 Americans a month in 2023 and 70,000 total in 2022, more Americans than were killed in forty combined years of combat in the Vietnam War and the War on Terror: Check

    Sending in legions of trained, military age males as para-militaries into America across the unsecure southern border and becoming decisively involved in “legal” and illegal cannabis production and distribution as gateway drugs toward Fentanyl: Check

    Wooing Saudi Arabia into sales of oil in Yuan and a peace deal with Iran: Check

    Setting up the BRICS conference to be the key event to build a coalition to capsize American world leadership: Check

    Successfully using a captured occupant of the White House and his son to wreck America:

    Xi was not on his best game at the BRICS, disrupted by several events that even the best totalitarian couldn’t control. Prices collapsed in China shortly before the BRICS conference. This price collapse was a stark indicator of China’s real economic health. And then, historic floods devastated Beijing and the regime attempted to use the neighborhoods of the populace as a moat causing anger and rage not seen since last year’s White Paper uprising.

    After sacking his Foreign Minister and Nuclear Force Leadership Team immediately before BRICS, Xi sent in Wang Wentao to read a statement in the opening part of the conference. When Xi did appear, a bizarre tussle occured and the doors closed behind him as the South African guards wrestled and shoved with the Chinese entourage. A bit lowbrow for the self-appointed leader of the new world order.

    The Chinese Night of the Long Knives does not bode well for Chinese military readiness for an imminent attack on Taiwan. If Xi was assessing the inventory of successes for China’s no boundaries plan to topple America as the world leader, China’s proxies of Russia, Iran, Hamas, Houthis, Somalis, and Venezuela are having great success setting off arson fires across the world to distract and overwhelm the United States led world.

    But anything can happen as “The Death of Stalin” showed. Xi may force a reckless campaign anyway in the Western Pacific despite a decimated military leadership. The Chinese Night of the Long Knives may be only the final internal action before Xi lashes out in the Western Pacific. Anything to topple America before Trump returns.
