I’m Jumping Off the Trump Train: Assange Was the Last Straw

Guest Post by James George Jatras

Image result for trump assange

On March 6, 2016, this Deplorable issued a statement formally endorsing Donald J. Trump for the presidency of the United State.

I now hereby withdraw that endorsement.

No doubt this declaration from your Working Boy will be greeted with the same deafening indifference as my earlier less than earth-shattering announcement of support.

Keep calm. The planet will continue to spin on its axis at a 23.44 degree tilt.

As I tweeted on April 4, when it appeared that Ecuadorian President Lenín [sic] Moreno was going to cough up Julian Assange:

“If this comes to pass & #JulianAssange is brought to #US in chains like a Gaulish chieftain in a Roman triumph can we definitively declare that any possible #Trump revolution is over & the #DeepState won?”

A quick perusal of social media since Assange’s arrest shows that many others have reached a similar conclusion.

But why? To be sure, there have been other betrayals. The two strikes on Syria on phony chemical warfare accusations come immediately to mind. Or Trump’s failure to build the Mexican wall, coupled with repeated humiliating defeats in Congress with the predictability of Charlie Brown’s getting suckered by Lucy into trying to kick the football.

At the same time there were excuses. On Syria, maybe the President was fed false intelligence. Or maybe Ivanka was upset: Daaaddyyy, you have to dooo something! Or maybe Trump knew the CW accusations against Damascus were fake but felt he had to act (an ominous sign in itself) to deflect charges of being Putin’s puppet, hence what could be deemed deliberately pinprick pro forma strikes. On the wall, well you can’t trust lawyers’ advice, he just doesn’t understand his legal authority well enough, or maybe he…

But the Assange arrest and his upcoming renditi– – oops! – extradition to the United States are different. There’s no nuance. No excuse. No false intel report. No poor legal advice.

It’s plain and simple. The same entities (Deep State, permanent government, the oligarchy, the Borg, whatever term you like) that targeted Trump with the phony Russia collusion narrative want Assange’s scalp nailed to the wall. It’s one thing for favored outlets like the Washington Post and CNN to disseminate classified information that favors the Deep State, quite another to reveal information contrary to its interests. As the premier dispenser of embarrassing secrets that facilitates online dissidence from the established narrative (also under attack by governments and their tech giant accomplices) an example must be made of Assange pour encourager les autres. He can count on being sentenced to rotting for decades in a nasty Office Space federal prison (the US will gladly waive the death penalty to spare the Brits’ prissy Euro-consciences) but may very well die soon enough of natural causes, perhaps like Slobodan Milošević.

An essential role in Assange’s betrayal by Moreno was played by Trump’s Veep Mike Pence and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Former President Rafael Correa says a direct condition of Moreno’s getting a $4.2 billion IMF loan was Assange’s head on a platter. That’s a lot more plausible than establishment media reports that Assange was ejected for transgressing the Ecuadorians’ fastidious hygiene standards, which (whether based in fact or not) are just cynical defamations to justify his upcoming lynching.

It’s irrelevant whether Trump – who theoretically is the boss of all US agency operatives working with their Brit colleagues to get their mitts on Assange – let the nab go forward because he was unwilling to order his minions to stand down or was powerless to do so. In that regard, it’s similar to pointlessly asking why he has the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad national security team he does. Is it because of “Javanka”? Is it because he’s beholden to a gaggle of oligarchs? (Supposedly his being a self-financed billionaire made him immune from such influences.) Is it areflection of a personality disorder?

In the end it doesn’t matter why, all that matters is what is. With Assange’s arrest Trump is now exposed as the wholly owned subsidiary of the Swamp he ran against. He’s now just a wheel fixed to an axle. All he can do now is it spin.

In my 2016 endorsement I asked the questions – only questions, not predictions – of what Trump might hopefully accomplish:

‘Can we trust Trump? Will he build his wall and secure our borders? Renovate our deteriorating infrastructure? Restore our manufacturing base? Audit the Federal Reserve and defenestrate the banksters? Restore the GOP’s long-lost reputation (now hardly remembered by anyone) as the “Peace Party” that got us out of wars the Democrats started? Sign a bill to defund Planned Parenthood, as long as they continue to perform abortions (which they will)? Exclude actual or potential Islamic terrorists? Dump our freeloading so-called “allies”? Cease the PC trashing of every tradition in which Americans once took pride? Reunite a nation sundered by Barack Obama and the GOP mandarins, with their divide et impera Punch and Judy show of class and racial discord?

‘Can Trump really “Make America Great Again”? Or at least slow our decline and give our country another chance?

‘I don’t know. But I do know that none of the more mannerly politicians served up by the oligarchy will.

‘“Trust not in princes…” (Ps. 146:3) Neither Trump nor any other politician should be accepted on blind faith. Who really can say if Trump can win or if he does how he would govern. Who can say what’s really in his mind and heart or if, in God’s eyes, he’s a good man or a bad one. But given the dire warning from the likes of Mitt Romney, I like the odds with Trump better than with any of the available alternatives. When the character of his enemies is considered – particularly Warfare State neoconservatives (some of whom at least have the honesty to defect openly to Hillary) – my willingness to gamble on him only increases.’

Even in retrospect it was then a gamble worth taking, indeed the only responsible choice given the horrifying alternative. More, given what Trump promised that departed from the usual nonsense served up by the GOP, the fact that Trump got the nomination instead of the NPCs on the shelf was itself perhaps a sign of that the historic American nation still had a fighting chance.

As for what we hoped he might deliver to “Make America Great Again,” we can see now that the answers to all of the above questions are and will remain an emphatic No. Sure, we got a marginally better tax bill passed, something that any Republican White House and Congress would have done. He may have made minor progress on trade. If we are really lucky, he’ll get another Supreme Court pick and Roe v. Wade will be overturned – marvelous to be sure, but it won’t same this country.

Trump has utterly failed to control the border, much less deal with related issues like remittances, birthright citizenship, and aliens illegally voting. As retired Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor observes: “Surely, Trump should have concluded by now that without an Executive Order that commits the US Army to the defense of the southern border and limits cross-border traffic to legitimate commercial activity, mass illegal immigration will not stop… In a word, Trump refuses to take command and match rhetoric with action, then he will join the pantheon of failed presidents that promised the world only, this time, the American Republic’s existence hangs in the balance.”

Unfortunately, Trump’s appointees – uniformly neoconservatives, Bush-era warmongers, and GOP apparatchiki – have better things for our military to do than defending our own country, to which they are at best indifferent. We can be thankful that Trump hasn’t started any new wars, yet, but his underlings’ dogged commitment to regime change in Venezuela and Iran may change that. His outreach to North Korea hangs by a thread in the face of blatant attempts to sabotage it.

One hopes that at least some animal-level gut instinct will preclude Trump’s crossing that dark river and ruining what’s left of his presidency as George W. Bush did in Iraq. If his lunatics are reckless enough to stumble us into a war with Russia, Trump’s reelection will be the least of anyone’s concerns.

Even without a war his remaining time in office will not be the revival of America that he promised. Let’s keep in mind that for many decades now transformative Democratic presidents have not left this country the same way they found it: FDR, LBJ, Clinton, Obama. By contrast, Republican presidents’ tenures have been at best plateaus along our decline (Eisenhower, Reagan) or positively contributed (Nixon, the two Bushes) to the march of what the Left regards as “Progress” toward their abolition of the historic America and birth of a dystopian Cultural Marxist dictatorship of victims: a borderless, multiethnic, multilingual, multireligious, multisexual, ahistorical, fake country.

Perhaps the saddest thing is that even if he survives in office until the 2020 vote (and he might not) Trump still will almost certainly be the lesser of two evils, in the manner to which we have become accustomed. Despite his no longer representing a threat to the Swamp, the critters will continue to hate him anyway as an avatar of the America they seek to destroy: European ethnicity, Christian (culturally if not spiritually or morally), English-speaking, toxically masculine. He might even win, given the Wall Street and Democratic Socialist Democrats’ ripping each others’ guts out and the solid 35 to 40 percent of the folks who think from Trump’s tweets and stump speeches he’s actually delivering on his promises.

Either way, though, the outcome will be the same. The man who had what is almost certainly to have been the last peaceful, political chance save what’s left of the American republic will thrash around for a few more years, having become little more than a catalyst for our nation’s demise and perhaps its dissolution.

This is not to say that there is no hope. Maybe tomorrow Trump will pardon Assange. Maybe he’ll decide to militarize the Mexican border. Maybe he’ll fire his whole national security team and, for good measure, pull us out of Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq – and NATO. Maybe Barr really will hold the FISA miscreants to account. Maybe…

…maybe there will be an outpouring of miracles that match the one that occurred when Trump improbably was elected in the first place. But as is the case with miracles, the odds are not good.

So how does that red pill taste, boys and girls? Can’t just swallow it all at once, it has to be chewed and swallowed in increments. Sometime it gets spit back up and then has to be re-chewed. Hanging on to those little hopes, dreams, beliefs cause the pieces to be spit up. But once those hope, dreams and beliefs are finally, fatally dashed the red pill becomes the bitter pill and the bitter pill becomes the black pill.

But the thing about Trump’s denial is that it was so completely obvious in it’s ridiculousness; like when someone is fabricating and they want you to know they are fabricating.

Also the timing. In a hearing on Capitol Hill, the U.S Attorney General acknowledged domestic spying on a presidential campaign. The spying was originated over claims that Trump colluded with the Russians, election hacking, and, in part, WikiLeaks serving an agency of Putin. Or, rather, that is the narrative spun for John Q’s consumption.

Then, the next day after Barr’s bombshell, Julian Assange is arrested on international television.

Was Assange’s arrest a last minute, hail mary maneuver by the Shadow State now cornered by Barr’s public acknowledgement of spying? Because everyone knows that rabbit hole leads to FISA-abuse and more. Is Assange a hostage to help derail that train?

Or, does Team Trump plan on using Assange to red-pill the world regarding Seth Rich?

Again, Trump’s claiming he had nothing to do with WikiLeaks almost seemed like it was for John Q’s consumption as well. He also kept saying all things Assange was under the purview of Attorney General Barr.

Reality? Or reality TV? What’s the difference? In any scenario, the wool is being pulled over someone’s eyes. But whose?

Isn’t it amazing how the audience is kept guessing every week as the plot thickens? Week after week after week.

How’s it gonna end?

Stay tuned and don’t touch that dial. Because they’ll be right back after the next commercial break.

I hope Julian Assange, if not entertained privately in The Star Chamber, or given a fatal “terrible accident”, is able to play these very same videos of The Man From Queens for everyone to enjoy.

Might even prove to be the definitive calling of the Evil Fuckers’ bluff: Wikileaks may have done some extra-curricular historical “information” mining and could very well have some other “naughty bits” for the world’s edification and amusement.

Without that beast there would have been no war crimes, corruption and pure evil to expose.
Sure there are evil people in the world but without the massive machinery and resources of coercive, larcenous governments to which they are drawn like moths to the flame, their crimes and damage inflicted on humanity would be minuscule compared to that of nation states.
Some day humanity must wake up as a species and object to strangers dictating through violence their every behavior and decision in the current statist model of human organization.

After a few years in office, things become clearer.

President Trump likes to win. Knowing this, it is beginning to make sense; his intention is to leave office as a great president. To do so, he must choose with his legacy in mind and to fulfill his many promises, he would run the risk of diminishing his brand, so he makes deals.
It is beginning to look like his latest deal is to offer up Assange to the democrats, for them to have some closure after the Russian collusion fiasco, in return for maybe a few heads of some of the coup plotters (no big fish, just a few mid level working stiff like Comey and McCabe).
For the libs, they get an innocent so called Russian agent whom they can crucify, Trump gets a few trophies so he can claim the swamp is officially drained and we get; nothing. The swamp continues as before, the promises continue unfulfilled and we are left with more rallies.

The Libs are happy, Trump is “winning,” and we get squat.

I hope I’m wrong, it will all come out in a few weeks, but if my predictions ring true, his base will disappear in a heartbeat and his legacy will be more shameful than Obama’s.

I dunno about “a few weeks”.. Assange-as-bargaining-chip could go on for years. The Snowden and Manning situations are still open, afaik.

I still hold out hope that Trump might use Assange to fuck the Democrats, because he could, and it would be bee-yooo-tee-full. But like with the Mueller thing, he would need to let it play out “normally” so he’s not seen having too much influence. Not a fanboi, just day-dreaming. Don-the-Vengeful could win out.

Agreed that Trump is a massive disappointment. His only plus is he’s not Hillary. His chief accomplishments, IMO, are doing in the trans-Pacific trade deal and the Paris Accord on global warming. A case could also be made, perhaps, that his foreign policy blunders are hastening the end of the empire–and that’s good–though that probably wasn’t his intention. He had done well on the N. Korea problem but let Bolton screw that up. Otherwise he’s a complete failure as measured against what he promised. This Assange business is just the latest outrage perpetrated by his administration. He does have time to right some wrongs, and prosecuting the Russiagate brain trust and pardoning Assange would be a great start. I’m not holding my breath.

If you go somewhere without toting a gun you will be dead, and you may well be dead anyhow. Enjoy today, for though tomorrow may be nice it sure as hell won’t be nice within the next decade.

Despite his predicament of being booted from the embassy, the photos looked to me he was a bit jovial and relieved. He is going to be tried and charged for his crimes, but what hes jovial about that they will force him to turn over the same evidence that will bury major players for the deep state. That will lead to a new trial and new charges for the real criminals implicated. My guess is he will do time that makes 7rs at the Ecuadorian embassy look like Club Gitmo.

Here is what the US does to its citizens that no other nation does to theirs.

The US taxes its citizens no matter where on earth they are. If they work and live in another country, they tax the wages they make there. They tax the wealth held there. They require reports on their wealth. They tax unrealized income – they tax your income before you even earn it!

They require all bank accounts be reported. My attorney says it is impossible for a US citizen living abroad to not commit tax crimes, so onerous, contradictory, and difficult to understand are the laws and regs.

And they force the other nation to tell the US which US citizens live there, what bank accounts they have, what wealth they have – even if that person is a citizen of that other nation. If the other country does not so report, it is punished financially. The mechanism is called FATCA.

Does this sound like US citizens are free? Does this sound like the US government is benevolent?

The US government owns you if you are a citizen. Try to leave the US, and discover these truths.

TampaRed – it is urgent you take action in this stuff. Critically urgent.

Hope she is reporting those accounts on an FBAR report. The fine for willful failure to do so is 50% of the balance of the accounts per each year not reported, if the total balances exceed $10,000. Really. No kidding. Willful effectively means she knows about the accounts. And it does not matter if the money is really hers or not – if she has signature authority is all that matters.

If she has not reported these accounts on an FBAR, and has not reported the income from the account, no matter if it is $.01, especially if on her tax return she has not ticked the box saying she has overseas accounts, and if she has been aware of the accounts, she is about to be screwed. And I shit you not. They will look to fine her a huge amount.

If she has not filed an FBAR, and has over $10k total in her name overseas, she needs to immediately get a good tax attorney familiar with overseas tax crime, because if she has done the above she has committed a tax crime. And Germany is going to report her to the US, and the US is going to look for the FBARs.

You are likely about to be put through a serious blender. The IRS is raking in billions via this FBAR law.

Speaking about taxes, the United States is one of two countries on planet Earth that has a tattoo on its citizens’ butts that says property of that country; that requires you to pay taxes wherever you live on planet Earth, wherever you live you have to file your taxes. The other country that does that is the human rights hellhole of Eritrea, which is like ranked dead last on the Reporters Without Borders freedom of the press index. The United States has that in common with the least free country on planet Earth.

Jatras may be in that class of “slow learners,” or perhaps just a victim of his own clouded judgement based on initial false assumptions. Hopium rarely manifests from either and usually ends when the profound 2×4 of reality finally smacks you up side the head. Trump was owned by his handlers from the very beginning and just continued his reality TV role for the entertainment of the masses that were so “hopeful” things would change for the better.
Reality dictates that the cavalry won’t be gallantly riding to our rescue for the simple reason that the handlers of Trump and other past presidents haven’t vacated their posts and are still running the asylum.
What the common people of this nation can’t seem to perceive is that what is happening is all by design. It’s intentional, has always been intentional and always will be until the last of the white European, Anglo Saxon race has been systematically erased from the planet. That’s the primary purpose for all of the ills perpetrated upon an unsuspecting, dumb-downed indigenous populace, that commonly display the survival skills of the now defunct dodo bird.
Illegal immigration was foisted upon us by not the illegals, but by those who either ignored the immigration laws that were already written, or by intentionally altering them and allowing the flood of illegal immigrants to further denigrate our land. Political correctness is just another form of social tyranny designed to silence those who opposed the agenda of dividing and conquering their homeland. Homosexuality, along with other deviant versions of perverse activity has been intentionally promoted in our socialist public fool system. Ask yourselves, who are those that passed favorable legislation giving protected status to those who have always until the present day been vilified and ostracized by the majority of decent folk for their illegal and perverted acts of depravity?
The writing is clearly on the wall. The demise of this formerly great Republic has been intentionally planned and executed with great precision upon a gullible, misinformed, uninformed, dumb-downed, stubborn and stiff-necked people who simply refuse to recognize that their enemy is within the gates. Remember the immortal words of another president that sold his soul to the devil’s kids. FDR once quipped that “nothing in politics happens by accident.” The curtain is now rising on the final act.

The truth in your statement rolled over the narrative like a Panzer ! And you kept firing rounds that hit the bullseye !

annuit coeptis novus ordo seclorum- YES IT’S ALL BEEN PLANNED…..and ‘the devil’s kid’ is who the freemasons (FDR for one of many) want to incarnate !

Oh go and drink some water, James. This has nothing to do with Trump. Assange needed to come in from the cold anyway, a respite if you will. Think of it as a rescue from that shit life he was living — the World was his cage. It’s that goddam Corporal Manning I want to see skinned and tanned. Assange will be better off in a couple years.
