The All-American Issue

Published by on

Folks…..

The problem with most…..

…..alt-pundit freakazoids, is…..

…..THEY HAVE NO CLUE HOW ANYTHING WORKS.

They ascribe motives that don’t exist…..

See things not there, etc.

It’s magical, medieval thinking.

Moreover…..

In focusing exclusively…..

…..on “geopolitics“…..

…..and/or on alleged, vast secret struggles…..

…..among (or within)…..

…..Western central banks…..

…..or other esoteric matters…..

…..that are conjectural, murky, non-verifiable…..

What they’re doing…..

…..is DELIBERATELY obscuring…..

…..their ignorance…..

…..and lack of understanding…..

…..about things…..

…..you can ACTUALLY SEE.

Dreizin, on the other hand…..

…..knows the U.S. system…..

…..as well as…..

…..(in some cases, better than)…..

…..most people…..

…..who CONSTITUTE the system.

As a Dreizin reader…..

You are one of the ELECT.

This weblog…..

…..is a GIFT and a BLESSING.

(In this issue, we have a special treat for you, a professional-level analysis of SB264, Ron DeSantis’ “No dogs or Chinamen” bill. It’s near the end.)

Just read, listen, and LEARN.

And if you can…..

…..give me some money…..

…..or at least, follow me on Twitter.

First, a quick clarification

I wouldn’t have thought to mention this, except that, one reader got confused, and he’s likely not alone. In my last post, in the audio, where I referred to a leading, Ukrainian psyops command-run, “fake Russian” Telegram channel, I was talking about the Grey Zone channel, NOT the The Grayzone, which is an American website.

Roles and division of labor at World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE)

The next few hundred words…..

…..are NOT about the Ukraine.

They are about…..

…..the U.S. political system.

If you haven’t heard…..

America’s number one “angry closet homo“…..

…..Lindsey Graham…..

…..visited the Ukraine…..

…..on Friday…..

…..and said, it’s great…..

…..and The Big Counteroffensive will be great…..

…..and the U.S. needs…..

…..to open its pockets wider…..

…..and provide more…..

…..of this, that, and the other.

And…..

I quote from video I just saw…..

(Not surprisingly, this was NOT in the MSM—it’s just too CRUDE, and awfully TONE-DEAF and PROVOCATIVE to people back home.)

“And the Russians are dying… It’s the best money we’ve ever spent.”

Folks….

I’ve written about this before.

You gotta understand…..

Graham is NOT the problem.

Graham is merely executing…..

…..HIS PERMANENT TASK…..

…..of holding up…..

…..the military-industrial end…..

…..of the national Republican fundraising effort.

If things get critical…..

…..as they did…..

…..when Republicans won the U.S. House…..

…..and launched some crazy talk…..

…..about “no blank checks“…..

…..for the Ukraine…..

McConnell gets involved.

As he did…..

…..at that time.

Even to the extent of…..

…..attending the Munich Security Conference…..

…..and issuing a brutal statement…..

…..along the lines of…..

…..(not verbatim, but close enough)…..

“We don’t care what our base thinks, we do what we want.”

OTHERWISE…..

…..if things are cool…..

…..then, Graham can handle it…..

…..on his own.

And, if you don’t like…..

…..what he’s saying…..

Well…..

You will hate him…..

…..while OVERLOOKING…..

…..that ALL Senate Republicans…..

…..benefit from his game.

(Because they are one party, just like the wrestlers on WWE are one company, they’re not REALLY individual heroes or villains.)

Likewise…..

Senator Mike Lee.

Lee has long been…..

…..the Republican POINT-MAN…..

…..for H1B visas…..

…..and in general…..

…..anything that brings in…..

…..immigrant labor.

Even though…..

…..this has NO direct relevance…..

…..to the joint committee that he chairs.

He makes the U.S. Chamber of Commerce HAPPY.

He makes the voting base UNHAPPY.

Again…..

If you don’t like it…..

You will hate Lee…..

While OVERLOOKING…..

…..that ALL Senate Republicans…..

…..benefit from his game.

(Because they are one party, just like the wrestlers on WWE are one company, they’re not REALLY individual heroes or villains.)

I could go on!

You see…..

A lightning rod…..

…..benefits the whole house…..

…..doesn’t it?

This game also has…..

…..ANOTHER version.

For example…..

Senator Ron Johnson…..

…..is really big…..

…..on problems with…..

…..(or arising from)…..

…..the vakk-seenz.

This has NO relevance at all…..

…..to the committee he co-chairs.

It’s just a pet project.

He says good things.

I’m not complaining.

NONETHELESS…..

Having Johnson speak on this subject…..

Allows Senate Republicans to feel like…..

…..“Hey, we’re covering this issue”…..

…..and provides sufficient…..

…..”Republicans are looking into this” material…..

…..for the likes of foxnews.com…..

…..Gateway Pundit, etc.

Even though, in fact…..

…..it’s only ONE of them…..

Which ALSO makes it difficult…..

…..for the MSM…..

…..to tar them ALL…..

…..as “deniers” or “anti-science.”

You see?

Everything is a game with these people.

It’s all ONE BIG ACT.

It’s like “pro wrestling.”

A bunch of “interesting characters“…..

…..but it’s all SCRIPTED and FAKE.

If you buy into it…..

…..you are a MORON.

Debt Ceiling, LOL

After demanding…..

…..HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS…..

…..in WHOLLY UNSPECIFIED…..

…..multiyear spending cuts…..

U.S. House Republican leadership…..

…..has reportedly settled…..

…..on a mere $10 billion reduction…..

…..in the multiyear, $87 billion pot…..

…..of NEW money…..

…..that the prior Congress…..

…..had budgeted…..

…..for the IRS.

LOL.

Also, there will…..

…..supposedly…..

…..be a “freeze“…..

…..on nondefense, discretionary spending…..

…..(not the military, not the intelligence complex, not veterans’ benefits, not Social Security, not Medicare, not Medicaid, not CHIP, not ACA subsidies, not interest on the debt, and of course, not any extrabudgetary items that may be coming, such as additional aid to the Ukraine)…..

…..(In short, the “freeze” covers as little as 1/3 of the Federal budget)…..

…..for fiscal year 2024…..

…..and just a 1% increase in 2025.

Of course…..

What they’re NOT telling you:

In Federal budget-speak…..

A “freeze” NEVER limits…..

…..annual cost-of-living adjustments…..

…..(“a raise”, possibly as high as 5%)…..

…..for Federal employees.

Bahahahaha!

There’s all kinds…..

…..of other gimmicks…..

…..and loopholes.

Such as…..

Government agencies…..

…..still having freedom…..

…..to spend preauthorized, multiyear funds…..

…..to their hearts’ content.

(It’s a game, they will spend as much “old” money as they can, then sit tight and wait for it to “rain” again.)

As for 2025 specifically…..

That’s so far away…..

NO ONE will remember…..

…..or feel obligated to…..

…..what was agreed upon, today.

This is all just “smoke“…..

…..to obscure Republican unwillingness…..

…..to attack SPECIFIC programs…..

…..or spending items.

Folks…..

Remember what I said…..

…..on May 12th?

I said it’s all an ACT.

I said they will FOLD…..

…..as they ALWAYS do.

I said they’re just doing it…..

…..to give their talk radio hosts…..

…..and other shitheads…..

…..something to yap about…..

…..so as to make their retard base…..

…..feel like they’re “doing something“…..

…..or “standing up for something.”

As always.

If you missed it…..

Here’s what I said:

How the Empire Machine REALLY works

I responded as follows…..

…..to a reader…..

…..who is convinced…..

…..that the USA deliberately sows…..

…..instability and chaos…..

…..as the first step…..

…..in reaching…..

…..any given major foreign policy goal.

(Typically, bringing some country under its wing.)

Here’s what I wrote:

You got nothing, just your own conjecture and preconceived notions.

Spend one month working in the broad foreign policy apparatus in DC, then tell me it’s a Chaos Conspiracy.

There’s no “plan” other than leveraging money and various organizational resources to seize turf.

As a spectator, on the outside, it’s hard to appreciate, because you’ve been raised on Hollywood and comics and Internet bullshit…..

…..and you can’t comprehend how the U.S. Government can be so incompetent, over and over…..

…..UNLESS the failure and chaos is by design.

I get it.

There are hundreds of millions of ignorants like you, worldwide.

But, it’s exceedingly simple. Almost every conflict, and every U.S. takeover (or attempted takeover) of a given country, is no different than the “cola wars”, Coke vs. Pepsi.

There may be a “moral” or “ideological” cover for the MSM to broadcast to retard voters (and they are ALL retards)…..

…..but at least 98% of those involved are doing it for a paycheck and career advancement and pension, and nothing else.

The upper 1-2% are doing it for those reasons AND to gain turf and prestige and leave a name for themselves…..

…..AND/OR because, as political appointees, they may be fired if they don’t “gain market share”, or at least, strive to keep their own offices/departments “relevant” (again, turf.)

(In fact, as a boss, you can’t NOT spend money, you’d lose your job. You simply MUST pay for military assistance or democracy seminars in X country, otherwise Congress will say, what the hell is this guy doing, get rid of him and give us someone else.)

The 98+% and most of the 1-2% would just as easily organize military aid to RUSSIA, if ordered to do so, if it made the White House and arms lobby happy. (Just as they did 80 years ago.)

They are not initiated into whatever the fuck chaos conspiracy agenda that you think is going on. There is no initiation. This shit is not taught at the Foreign Service Academy. There are no Illuminati.

Nothing has changed in the last 5000 years of imperialism. There is no more chaos agenda now, than when Egypt was first unified.

It’s sad that you’ve gained no perspective at all, from this blog. It’s just in one ear, out the other. That’s not my goal, here.

If you’d rather go back to Tom Luongo, I understand.

But if you want to keep commenting, you’ll have to give me another five bucks.

I should add…..

It’s MUCH CHEAPER…..

…..to take over…..

…..an ORGANIZED system.

Thus, breaking a country…..

…..the way the U.S. did to Iraq…..

…..is obviously NOT…..

…..the way to go…..

And, if it happens…..

…..it’s merely a result…..

…..of poor planning, incompetence.

NOT any “chaos agenda.”

Contrast Iraq…..

…..with what the USA did…..

…..with the Ukraine…..

…..in 2014…..

…..when it took over…..

…..one of Europe’s largest…..

…..and most populous countries…..

…..in literally a few days.

THAT was classic.

It was CHEAP.

The takeover…..

…..was from the very top.

It did NOT involve…..

…..a decade-long…..

…..”Nicaraguan Contras” type insurgency.

Sure, there were some years…..

…..of fairly laid-back…..

…..”prep work.”

Nothing chaotic at all.

And, when the time was right…..

They just walked in…..

…..and did it.

That’s how you do it.

(Of course, being as confident as the gods of Olympus, and not understanding Russia or Putin, they did not imagine “what comes after.” I told a very good friend, in 2014, that because of the USA coming in and bringing the country under its control, “the Ukraine will be destroyed.” He hadn’t been exposed to that line of thought in his NY Times or Wall Street Journal readings, so naturally, he thought I was nuts.)

DeSantis says: “No dogs or Chinamen!“

This is about SB264…..

The “Chinese, Russians, etc., can’t buy land in Florida” bill…..

…..which has been included…..

…..in DeSantis’ talking points…..

…..about his wonderful…..

…..(quote) RECORD (un-quote.)

Specifically, to provide…..

…..a “foreign policy” angle…..

…..to his “experience.”

You see…..

An American state-level politician…..

…..is ALWAYS at risk…..

…..of being called…..

…..”inexperienced“…..

…..in foreign policy…..

…..when running for Senate…..

…..or the Presidency.

Specifically…..

At a nationally-televised debate…..

…..against a candidate…..

…..who has “foreign policy experience.”

So, this is DeSantis’ attempt…..

…..to preempt that.

“In Florida, we cracked down on China blah blah.”

Experience!!!

LOL.

Of course…..

People are lazy…..

Most “Journalists” are lazy…..

And…..

No one wants…..

…..to sift through legislation.

It’s TEDIOUS!

Fortunately…..

…..this bill is quite short.

And, Dreizin went through it.

I can tell you…..

It’s clearly ILLEGAL.

And, they don’t care.

If it gets tossed by a court…..

Who cares?

That won’t take away…..

…..from DeSantis’ “experience.”

By the time the law…..

…..is fully adjudicated…..

…..in the courts…..

The 2024 election…..

…..will be over already, LOL.

OK, moving on…..

What’s in the law?

The law prohibits…..

…..the sale of any property…..

…..that’s located close enough…..

…..to any type of infrastructure…..

…..(in short, any property)…..

…..to:

Any person who is domiciled in a foreign country of concern (defined as China, Russia, etc.—Dreizin) and is not a citizen or lawful permanent resident of the United States.

Alright…..

Ignore the “domiciled” part.

That’s a tax and business term, irrelevant.

The problem, is…..

There’s a longtime legal tradition…..

…..whereby almost anyone…..

…..present in the USA…..

…..is a “U.S. person“…..

…..and…..

…..non-citizen, non-permanent-resident U.S. persons…..

…..enjoy, among other things…..

…..the SAME protections…..

…..against…..

…..Federal “protected category” discrimination…..

…..(to include, with respect to the “national origin” category)…..

…..as EVERYONE else.

And…..

There is NO WAY…..

…..that some lawyer responsible…..

…..for writing or vetting this bill…..

…..before it was voted on…..

…..did NOT know that.

Hell…..

DeSantis himself, probably knows.

Again…..

This law is ILLEGAL…..

…..and the present suit against it…..

…..WILL succeed…..

…..in Federal court…..

…..REGARDLESS of the partisan affiliation…..

…..of the judge(s.)

But, who cares?

It’s just temporary bubbles…..

…..and colored smoke…..

…..to give DeSantis…..

…..some “foreign policy credibility“…..

…..so that he can stand…..

…..on a debate stage…..

…..with Statesman Trump…..

…..and not look like a child.

This is how it’s done.

This is how it’s always done.

State-level attempts at…..

…..”foreign policy credibility“…..

…..are NOT new.

This one…..

…..just happens to be illegal.

U.S. real estate accelerating into intergalactic space

For a good credit borrower…..

With 10% down…..

The 30-year conventional mortgage rate…..

…..in most states…..

…..is now at or above…..

…..its October high…..

EVEN THOUGH…..

The 10-year Treasury bond yield…..

…..is still…..

…..(as of Friday)…..

…..quite a bit off…..

…..its October high.

What this tells you, is…..

There is MUCH more “borrower risk“…..

…..being priced in, today.

In any case…..

The real estate market…..

…..is so CRAZY…..

…..that if my wife and I…..

…..were to buy another house and lot…..

…..IDENTICAL to our current one…..

The total monthly payments…..

…..would be OVER TWICE…..

…..what we’re paying now…..

…..on the house we’re living in…..

…..that we bought ten years ago…..

…..and refinanced (most recently)…..

…..in 2021.

LIKEWISE…..

If we were to move out…..

…..and rent our home…..

…..to someone else…..

The rent…..

…..would be LESS THAN HALF…..

…..of what the renters…..

…..would pay monthly…..

…..if they BOUGHT our house.

This is nuts.

I don’t understand…..

…..how people can AFFORD…..

…..to buy, today.

Uncle Dreizin Wants YOU!

If you haven’t already, please sign up to my damn MAILING LIST! All this means, is that you’ll get my blog posts, in your email. I DO NOT mass-send anything but that. Please enter your email address, in the box below.

Comments Policy

I really appreciate good comments. Many people come back here, in-between posts, just to read the comments. If you help me entertain them, you’re my hero. A few rules:  This is not a chat board.  Your comment must primarily, largely involve and directly touch upon something that, or someone whom, I wrote about in the post you’re commenting on.  Life reminiscences (if relevant), relating your relevant personal experiences, your job, your commie college girlfriend, your idiot family members, your Ukrainian coworker, etc., if relevant, are all HIGHLY encouraged.  The most interesting content here… is YOU.  The only exceptions to the on-topic requirement, are if you’re calling attention to a technical problem with the site, or briefly stating how much you love the content or this Comments Policy.  Don’t try to “legitimize” an off-topic comment by throwing in some little pre-thought or afterthought about what I wrote. NO DISCUSSIONS THAT STRAY FROM MY TOPICS. My topics are the only common denominator here, and while it may amuse you, most readers have no interest in your thoughts on the Punic wars, or on some guy named Serge, or on how much you generally / generically don’t like the Ukraine and Zelensky; it’s your way to kill your own time, but it adds no value for others. Which means, if you’re responding to someone else’s comment, your response must still relate directly to one of my topics. Doesn’t matter how much you generously donated, these rules apply equally to everyone.  350 word limit, no exceptions, 351 words won’t be published, sorry. No rambling. If you’re not sure what “rambling” is, ask yourself, “Are others likely to understand and appreciate or enjoy my comment, or am I merely jerking off“? Nazis, commies, worshipful groupies of Mercouris/Johnson/etc., Jew baiters/haters, FBI agents-provocateurs, guys who forgot to take their Ritalin, passive-aggressive needling of the sysop or of other commenters (to include, by dipshits who think their attitude will fly if they mention possibly maybe potentially giving me money at some point—yes, “you people” are all the same), random questions that have no bearing on what I wrote (to include requests for my view on some commentator I’ve never heard of), no-punctuation writing by the smartphone generation, silly “Nadsat” lingo picked up from “The Saker” website, use of the BS term “SMO“, ALL CAPS writing (a sure sign of untreated autism), obsessives who just can’t leave a topic alone after they’ve already said everything (and just want to repeat themselves), and autistic bitching about the satanic USA and its evil pedo pervert elites and how they must be killed (or other bile in that vein), will not be tolerated. If you’ve got issues, this is not your “let it go” zone. Don’t write anything here, that your therapist wouldn’t approve of.
