America Faces No Greater Threat Than Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Their Assault to Our Borders Is As Great As Their Assault to Free Speech and Free Elections

ELIZABETH WARREN - ANOTHER LYING LAWYER FILLING HER POCKETS WITH HER LIES
BECAUSE MOST LAWYERS ARE SOICOPATHS, THERE IS NO 'TRUTH'. THERE ARE NO LAWS. IT'S ALL GAMED.
LYING PIG LAWYER WARREN LIED TO GET INTO HARVARD LAW. SHE HAS BEEN LYING EVERY DAY SINCE AS SHE HAS FILLED HER POCKETS AND STAGING HERSELF, LIKE LAWYER HILLARY CLINTON, LAWAYER KAMALA HARRIS, AS A BORN AGAIN 'POPULIST'. SHE IS NOTHING BUT A PARASITE LAWYER!
Elizabeth Warren is one of the least impressive figures in American politics today, despite her prominence. A wealthy leftist who made money flipping foreclosed-upon properties, she owes her fame to her Harvard resume, something she achieved by lying about her race; a book she wrote that pointed out the painfully obvious; and a completely erroneous study about medical bankruptcy. It’s no surprise that this faker should be trying to bully Amazon into pulling Alex Berenson’s factually accurate, meticulously sourced books about COVID and vaccines. If you run afoul of Warren’s narrative, she will try to destroy you.
As a teacher, Warren bounced around from law school to law school in the 1970s and 1980s (University of Houston Law Center, the University of Texas at Austin School of Law, the University of Michigan, and the University of Pennsylvania School of Law.) I had her as a professor in Texas and, while I will be the first to admit that I was, at best, an indifferent student in her class, I was not helped by the fact that she was one of those lecturers who never finished one thought before moving inscrutably to the next.
When Warren burst onto the national political scene, it emerged that she had leveraged herself into her job at Harvard by claiming to be Native American. Harvard needed to prove its diversity and she gave it the chance. It was a dirty bargain between leftists.
In 2004, Warren and her daughter gained renown for writing a painfully obvious book pointing out that two-income families were struggling financially, in significant part because the drive to get their kids into good public schools drove up real estate prices. As my kids would say, “Duh.”
A year later, Warren and David Himmelstein claimed that half of the families filing for bankruptcy did so in the wake of a serious medical problem. The book helped justify Obamacare. The problem, though, was that it was wrong because that’s how Warren rolls.
Following the 2008 real estate crash, Warren, that modern-day Marxist fighting for the little people against banks and other even industrialists, made some nice money flipping houses for a profit. Ironically, banks are proving to be evil but that’s not because they do what banks have always done, which is to loan money—often because the government forces them to do so to people who will not be able to pay the loans back—and then foreclose on failed loans. Instead, they’re evil because they’re buying into the same leftist garbage that Warren peddles.
Given Warren’s less than honest and accurate history, it somehow seems apropos that she, of all people, should be trying to censor Alex Berenson’s wildly popular, and completely accurate, COVID pamphlets (emphasis in original):
Last week, Warren sent Amazon a six-page letter complaining that the company is not actively hiding my Unreported Truths booklets - as well as others that present unapproved views about Covid-19 - in its search results.
[snip]
Warren’s letter focuses mainly on the fact that my and other books are prominently displayed in Amazon’s search engine (this is no surprise, given their ratings and sales). But it hints that she would like to go further. It asks Amazon to explain its “existing policies regarding the listing, promotion, and sale [emphasis added] of books and other products containing COVID-19 misinformation on its platform?”
To be clear, the Unreported Truths booklets contain no misinformation. As those of you who have read them know, they are sourced from government data and scientific preprints and peer-reviewed papers. I provide links to the relevant documents so readers can judge them for themselves.
But even if the booklets were completely wrong, their dangers would pale in comparison with the risks of government-fueled censorship. Elizabeth Warren should not be telling Amazon - which essentially controls retail book sales in the United States - what it can and cannot sell.
Warren has had a remarkably successful career for someone who has so little to offer other than trite Marxist prescriptions that have failed whenever and wherever they’ve been tried. In a perfect world, someone like this would never be allowed near power.
However, we do not live in a perfect world and Warren is trying to use her bully pulpit to stifle dissent. Berenson is correct that she needs to be stopped because, if she gets away with censoring information she dislikes, the floodgates are open for all the Democrats’ mediocrities to turn the First Amendment into a nullity.

Incompetence, corruption, and the Pelter Principle
The Pelter Principle is similar to the Peter Principle, not only in spelling but in a more important regard. The Peter Principle is a term invented by Laurence J. Peter. He said, "In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence. ... [I]n time every post tends to be occupied by an employee who is incompetent to carry out its duties. ... Work is accomplished by those employees who have not yet reached their level of incompetence."
In other words, if one is good at his job, he gets promoted. If he is good at that, he gets promoted again. Eventually, he may get promoted to a job at which he is not good. Therefore, he will not get promoted again but will tend to remain in a job where he is incapable. Eventually, in any organization, there is a tendency for the people in charge of each and every department to be incompetent. Thus, the organization becomes mismanaged through and through. Only the unpromoted workers get anything done, but their productivity is restricted by the incompetence of those in charge.
A related principle in hierarchies is referred to as the "Impostor syndrome." "Impostor syndrome refers to an internal experience of believing that you are not as competent as others believe you to be." It has been remarked by some social critics that in many cases, the syndrome is a consequence of the Peter Principle — that is, a recognition by someone who has been promoted to his level of incompetence that he is indeed incompetent.
The Pelter Principle is a term coined by me, for homophonic reasons only.
The Pelter Principle applies not to competence, but to official corruption. In recent years, those who closely follow the news have noticed that an astonishingly large number of government officials are, well, astonishingly corrupt — more of them are corrupt than we imagined, and they are far more corrupt than we had thought possible. The presidency of Donald J. Trump revealed them. When President Trump began exposing the Dark State, it could burrow no deeper. Instead, its members began wreaking destruction on the republic in a desperate effort to maintain their power.
The Pelter Principle, then, avers that once a sufficient number of corrupt government officials achieve a foothold, they begin to recruit and promote other corrupt people in a mutually supportive arrangement, a network of corruption. The proverbial exponential increase begins to take effect, mostly unnoticed by the general public. If it remains unnoticed, the entire system becomes saturated with corruption, such that there is no possibility of ever reforming it within the system itself. All the internal machinery of reform has itself become corrupt. It becomes the tool not of reform, but of further corruption and, indeed, of worse corruption.
There are three levels of individual corruption. One is the quest for personal gain, such as financial enrichment. This is the most common. The second is ideological motivation. Illicit sexual gratification is another. Each of these enables the greater corruption, which is that of treachery, even treason. This greater corruption is more than merely a parasitic infection, which weakens the host; it is more like a cancer that seeks to destroy the host, to kill it. One would expect that this fatal form of corruption would be the result of infiltration by a foreign enemy, as a prelude to conquest. Ironically, it can also be an interior attack by those seeking to commit national suicide. They loathe themselves and hate their country.
In contrast to them, those who seek absolute power would normally seek to control, not to destroy, the nation they are corrupting — but here is where the Peter Principle steps in to further complicate matters.
We are now at the stage of American history in which corruption has saturated every level of government, and every level of institutions connected with government. Were those in power competent to gain, use, and preserve it, we would already be a North Korean–style totalitarian state, an Orwellian beast of nightmare proportions. That we are not, at least not yet, is due only to the ineptness of those who would rule over us. Those who would run our lives cannot run their own.
It is cold comfort to lovers of liberty that our overlords can wreck, but not run, our nation. Liberty may arise from its ashes, but the ashes will be measured in terms of human agony.
There must come a proper time to throw off the yoke of tyranny. Too soon, and the effort is crushed, but if we wait too long, we lose the opportunity. Hopefully, there are enough patriots competent to choose the moment and courageous enough to act.
THREE PARASITE LAWYERS: LAWYER JOE BIDEN, LAWYER HUNTER BIDEN LAWYER JAMES BIDEN.
REMEMBER, NO LAWYER CAN OPEN UP HIS FAT MOUTH WITHOUT MORE LIES FALLING OUT.
Biden is, and has always been, a pathological liar of the worst kind, the kind who lies to boost his own ego no matter how easy it is to prove his dishonesty. PATRICIA McCARTHY

Report: Book Reveals Biden Family Corruption, ‘We’ve Got People All Around the World Who Want to Invest in Joe Biden’
A new book released Monday indicates Biden family corruption schemes sought to enrich son Hunter and brother Jim Biden while Joe Biden was the ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Author of The Bidens: Inside the First Family’s Fifty-Year Rise to Power, Ben Schreckinger, was told by one of Jim’sformer business partners, “Jim’s job is to ensure the lifestyle is good for the family.” The method of doing so reportedly entailed Hunter and Jim acquiring a hedge fund, Paradigm Global Advisors, which was founded and run by cocaine addict James Park.
“Jim and Hunter offered to buy the firm out for $21 million,” an offer inspired by Joe Biden’s plan to run for the Democrat “presidential nomination, and his son’s work for a Washington lobbying firm would be a problem.” Hunter was at that time employed at a lobbying firm that would present a conflict of interest for Joe Biden’s campaign.
“Hunter would have his new job, CEO of Paradigm, with a starting salary of $1.2 million,” Schreckinger wrote in the New York Post. “His experience in the financial sector amounted to a few years on the payroll of a credit-card issuer.”

The position as a hedge fund manager reportedly enabled the Biden family to “tap the global demand for business partnerships with the relatives of a powerful American official,” Joe Biden.
In order to capitalize on the hedge fund with cash to make profitable acquisitions, Jim reportedly told one of his partners, Anthony Lotito, that he should not worry over raising money.
“Don’t worry about investors,” Jim reportedly told Lotito. “We’ve got people all around the world who want to invest in Joe Biden.”
“We’ve got investors lined up in a line of 747s filled with cash ready to invest in this company,” Jim reportedly added.
The report also suggested that while Joe Biden was “preparing to announce his second White House bid,” Jim and Hunter were purportedly seeking to hire a team member who had more financial experience to offset their lack of financial knowledge.
Jim and Hunter soon hired Chuck Provini, who revealed “Jim and Hunter recruited him in part for political reasons. They wanted a non-Biden face atop the troubled firm.”
In Jim and Hunter’s offer to Provini, the two said Provini’s acceptance of the role would play a key part in keeping Joe Biden out of the headlines. “Joe Biden needs to distance himself from this,” Jim and Hunter told Provini, “Would you consider the job?”

In order to convince Provini to take the job, Jim and Hunter apparently attempted to sweeten the pot, telling Provini they will help him find investments from highly sought-after union pension funds.
“I was told because of his relationships with the unions that they felt as though it would be favorably looked upon to invest in the fund,” Provini explained. “They knew nothing about the hedge-fund business.”
Despite Jim and Hunter’s attempts, the hedge fund was unable to acquire profitable companies or raise capital to do so. Notwithstanding the failings, the report also notes, “Hunter and Jim did seek to enlist the family’s political allies as investors in Paradigm. Under their ownership, the firm became entangled in legal disputes and financial scandals before quietly winding down.”
The hedge fund’s inability to show a track record of success reportedly did not stop “unsophisticated” investors from dropping by the fund’s headquarters to drop off small investment checks for the firm to deposit.
Book author Ben Schreckinger recounts what Provini said about the incident:
He recalled one week where a succession of firefighters paraded into the office over the course of a few days and asked to speak with him. They would offer explanations like, “We’re friends of Joe, and we want to invest in the fund.”
…
The executive learned that there was a firefighters’ convention in town, and Jim had been working the room. “Jim told people they could invest in our hedge fund and that would help Joe,” the executive recalled.
Because of legal restrictions on who can invest in hedge funds, and because Paradigm, like most similar firms, insisted that clients fork over minimum investments in the tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, there was nothing he could do with the checks.
The hedge fund was still unsuccessful, despite the appearances Joe Biden helped create to encourage investments, for example, by sending firefighters who wanted to invest, literally into the firm. Ultimately, “Paradigm’s executives searched in vain to find an overseas bank or other foreign buyer to take the business off their hands, including in the banking haven of Switzerland.”
In the end, no entity would buy the fund from the Biden family, ending the hedge fund’s hopes of success.
