Ann Barnhardt's Predictions

If you noticed a cavalier attitude towards the Ferguson and Baltimore class-warfare race riots here at Ushanka, it is because this has all been part of the plan.


Ushanka Logic 101:
Premise #1: Democrats are driven by Communist inspirations,
Premise #2: Civil unrest is one tactic in the Communist takeover strategy,
Fact:  Civil unrest will occur where Democrats rule and where their voters live.
Hence, my less-than-serious reactions to Ferguson and Baltimore.

Those familiar with Ushanka know that I refrain from predictions.  First, offering a prediction on a blog is different than with, say, a cigar buddy.  It's just talk with the buddy.  It is permanent in a blog.  And being a product of the public school system, I know I would be wrong more than half the time.  Besides, how do you top the ultimate prediction: The Commie Obama Hat?  At least I can say I got one right.

Last, I seek out fellow bloggers who are a) honest, and b) bold.  (See blogroll at left)  Even better, if c) they know their history and d) make educated predictions from that knowledge.  Of these, one stands out: Ann Barnhardt. 


Ann posted yesterday that she is 8 for 11 in predictions, and that she stands by the remaining three.  Here are the eight that proved correct:
1.  Caliphate
2.  Cloward-Piven
3.  Inflation
4.  Universal Health Care
5.  Open Borders
6.  Criminalization of Christianity
7.  Civil Unrest (racial)
8.  End of Rule of Law
I would assume most of these are obvious to anyone who has been paying attention.

I think #6 has a ways to go, but I also suspect Ann is looking at the forced funding of abortions by tax-payers as proof of this prediction.  She would be right so far as there are no other religions that claim rigid anti-abortion views.  Right?

Here are Ann's remaining predictions:
9.    Nuclear War in the Middle East
10.  Obama is Assassinated
11.  Chinese "Peacekeeping" Troops Deploy in North America
Go through her old posts and videos to hear her back up and explain each and every prediction in detail.

Her advice has not changed over the years:
When I tell you people to be buying LONG GUNS and ammo, I’m not kidding. Assault rifles and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition...

Click over to read her full post, assuming any of this is important to you.

UPDATED 5.1.1511:30am:

Comrade Diann has a post over at PatriotReport - same 'part of a plan' theme, but with a focus on the Baltimore riots.  With video.

Updated 5.16.15:

Ann adds a prediction.

Admin Changes: Humidor

Despite the Humidor section along the left looking the same, I've made changes today to five of the six links.


Those five links linked to [redacted], a company I've used in the past to mail-order cigars.  Their Project Manager of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) emailed me with this message:
During the website analysis we have detected unnatural links coming from your domains. In order to safeguard [their domain] from any future updates we are cleaning up our back links profile to comply with Google's Guidelines. In pursuit of this objective, we believe that unnatural backlinks existing on your domain [ushanka domain] should be removed. Please remove all links from your domain to ours by 4th May, 2015.
I'm new to this whole Internet thing, but here is what I understand.  A company has three options if/when they change the links to their products:
1) Contact supporters and have them update their links,
2) Contact supporters and demand they remove all links to the business, or
3) Don't tell anyone.
Usually a company hires an SEO expert to drive business to the company's web site.  One part of that effort is to move the company's links higher in the Google search results.  Another rule I've heard: you want to be in the top three spots at Google.  Especially if you sell a commodity product and offer no other differentiating services or savings.  Of course, with everything I type here at Ushanka, I could be wrong.

The company that contacted me to remove their links is at the bottom of this search.


I thought this exercise would be a waste of time, but I found an opportunity to make Lemonade with the emailed lemons.  I'm due for a treat and realized that I have not had a Paul Garmirian cigar in years.  (That is the link that is unchanged.)

A couple facts about Paul Garmirian (PG):
1) Paul selects his resellers personally.  (The company that contacted me above is not one of those selected.)  And,

2) PG's are called "The President's Cigar."  Reagan, Bush I, and Bush II have sought these out while in office.  I'm sure Hillary's husband has used PGs before.  Obama may smoke a PG someday, if his wife decides to share.

Now Baltimore

The areas of the city - where most families do not include fathers - caught fire last night.


Hey!  Who said this?  (answer at the bottom)
These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don't move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there'll be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there'll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It'll be Reconstruction all over again.
Quotes of the Day:

UPDATED 11:30am:

A thought occurred to me:
One of the first items to be looted in Ferguson were hair extensions.  In Baltimore, it was toliet paper.

Does this mean Baltimore thieves don't use hair extensions, and that Ferguson thieves don't use...  oh gross!

Excellent question posted at FB:
How much of the ‪#‎BaltimoreRiots‬ were coordinated on social media by using Obama phones?
I don't know the number, but I can take a stab at the percentage...

Film Actors Guild - Nominees UPDATED and BUMPED

[orig post 4.17 5pm]


The brilliant minds of the Film Actors Guild (F.A.G.) are hard at work to find the best motion picture.  Category: Hillary.

Here are the nominated films:

This week's SNL skit:





This one from YouTube channel, Above Average (WZ):





This golden oldie from the 2008 campaign:





And our own production, also from the 2008 campaign:




The envelope please....

UPDATED and BUMPED 4.25.15 9pm:

Jenna, of "THANKS OBAMA" fame, releases her Hillary commercial.  1 million views in two days!




A History Lesson

Bill Whittle gives a quick history lesson to this year's college graduates. 




Excellent comparisons between our leaders today (Obama and Hillary) and those leaders of mass death (Stalin, Hitler and Mao) of the recent past.  They are not the same, yet....

10:56:
The final ultimate tragedy here is that the people, that idiots like this [professors] protest against, are the ones who are actually trying to protect the lives of idiots like this [liberal graduates] and their right to live in a society comfortable enough to allow them to be so spectacularly stupid. 
So, you want some irony class of 2015?  Here's your irony.  Your peace-loving socialist professors are laying the foundation for the all-powerful state that annihilates individuals like twigs in a bonfire.  

Just look at the NSA spying on every single email.  Or the IRS punishing political enemies.  And film makers thrown in jail to protect the political careers of presidents and secretaries of state.

Bracken on Bugging In

Author, ex-Navy SEAL, FB comrade and hat owner, Matt Bracken, has some advice for the prepper community in the 14-min sound file below.  Warning: serious topics discussed here.

When the EBT card balances hit zero, 
will you bug in or bug out?  

Matt addresses this question and offers some considerations.




His comments that fit the Ushanka narrative start at 9:56:
I think, at some level at the DHS, they are not thinking 'my goal here is to establish tyranny.'  Now, at the Obama level, yes.  Their goal is to turn this into Cuba or Venezuela.  That's what they mean by 'fundamentally transform.' 

[Speaking for Obama:] The Constitution is out the window.  We do what we want for social justice.  [Reasons for tyranny:]  Continuity of government and maintaining law and order.  Putting out social fires.  Being able to come out hard against rioting.

Videos of the Day

Two minutes total.

This one from 90 Miles:




This one from FB Comrade Doc:



This wall is now a display thanks to a president who invested in, and threatened the use of, the US military.


UPDATED 4.22.15 8am:

Oh man, is this a treat or what?!

I shared this post with Comrade Doc and he sent this photo and message via FB:

Karl, here's a picture of my wife in front (or could be behind) the Berlin wall in 1971...before graffiti was invented.
Just some background on Doc (pictured below).  He fought in the last shooting war with the Communists - Vietnam.  He served with Marine infantry as a Navy Corpsman.  He patched up countless wounds and suffered more than one himself.  He's the guy I want by my side when the commies start the next war.


Oh ya, he also has a hat.

Tribute Post: Capt. Jerry Yellin

Army Air Corp Capt. Jerry Yellin, revisiting Iwo Jima after 70 years:




1:48 -
Everybody was at war.  There was a purity of purpose, which was to eliminate evil.

We did that.  All of us. 

The highlight of my life is serving my country in time of war.
4:16 -
My cycle of life is near its end.  That's what it means to me. 

I'm here willingly and happily, as a last fond memory of this island, where I flew with sixteen guys who didn't come back.  I'm representing them...

... I'm representing a lot of people, and I hope I'm doing humbly and doing it correctly...

Economy Chat

Author Jim Rickards - my preferred source for economic analysis - talks with Hedgeye TV CEO Keith McCullough.  If you have an hour fifteen, this is a good use of your time.

In this interview (posted in mid-March), Jim talks about his CIA work, QE, debt-invoked default, the "knife-edge of serious deflation and hyper-inflation," how the Commerce Dept. distorts quarterly growth rates, Greece, China, interest rates, his philosophy on predicting market moves and more.




McCullough (17:57 mark):
Are people so insecure about what they do in this profession [finance] that all they have left is to try and find something to cling to certainty at this point when they should be doing absolutely none of it?
Rickards: 
The answer is yes.
---

Rickards (55:14 mark) speaking about how Warren Buffet is best prepared against both deflation and inflation:
So Buffet has got all those inflation hedges [hard assets like Burlington Northern], but he has $55 billion in cash, the most cash Berkshire Hathaway has ever had.  That is the most cash they've ever had.  What does it give them?  All those things I said: it reduces volatility and is a deflation hedge.  So Buffet has got his inflation hedge in hard assets, he's got his deflation hedge in his cash.  He's got his optionality so he can pounce when things get in distress.  So he's my portfolio with six more zeros.

Quote of the Day

by our good comrade, Diann, at PatriotReport:
Marxism is a failed ideology. And Marxism is what we have today in what used to be the freest nation in the world. Our Free Market used to drive the world economy. Now our Free Market is being driven into the ground by an incompetent Marxist.

This isn’t a “War on Women;” it is a war on all of us.

And it is being waged in Washington DC.

I don’t believe that simply electing a conservative President in 2016 will be enough to turn this country around.

But I do believe it has to be the first step.
Read it all!

Her post includes her splendid photoshop(?) work:


Check out Diann's cool t-shirts and books!

In 18 Months...


Today's Drudge:

If these six are all we get to choose from next year, it is accurate to say that 66% of the GOP is shit. 

There are only two proven conservative leaders in the bunch.  And knowing the tactics of the establishment GOP - represented by the other four - my two picks will get little opportunity to present a worthy plan.


I'm not throwing in the towel, nor will I ever.  I will vote "R" next year, and every year thereafter. 

But this lineup suggests the GOP lacks a seriousness about ISIS expansion, Russian expansion, Iranian nukes, ObamaCare, NSA abuses, IRS abuses, ATF abuses, failing schools, massive unemployment and a debt load that will reach $22,000,000,000,000 by the time the dear leader is run out of office.

There are two reasons to stay positive:
1) In comparison to the Democrat Party candidates, we look AWESOME.  And,
2) There are some other strong conservatives who can still jump in.

Comment of the Day

Someone posted a photo of their grandfather at Imgur.  A Soviet soldier.


And the Comment of the Day, from vonshang:
Thanks for invading my country in 1968.
That would be the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia in August 1968.
The invasion successfully stopped the liberalisation reforms and strengthened the authority of the conservative wing within the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia (KSČ). The foreign policy of the Soviet Union during this era was known as the Brezhnev Doctrine.
Leonid Brezhnev and the leadership of the Warsaw Pact countries were worried that the unfolding liberalizations in Czechoslovakia, including the ending of censorship and political surveillance by the secret police, would be detrimental to their interests. The first such fear was that Czechoslovakia would defect from the bloc, injuring the Soviet Union's position in a possible war with the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO).
Other comments worthy of honorable mention:

doctorpangloss:
Rapist.
docweird:
Crushing freedom and oppressing people since '63!
Missoura24:
Lol remember when the Russians killed more than the Nazies? Classic.

Sunday Tab Clearing

Comrades!  My apologies for the recent absence.  I've been busy with my new hobby: buckets of fun mind-numbing work.


Jim Rickards, my preferred source for an honest assessment of our economic uncertainties, adopted a more pessimistic tone on his blog last week:
The same goes for the collapse of the monetary system. It’s the instability of the financial system as a whole. So, when I think about the risks, I don’t focus so much on the snowflake, it could be a lot of things that trigger the event. It could be a failure to deliver physical gold because gold’s getting scarce. It could be a Lehman type of collapse of a financial firm or another MF Global. It could be a prominent suicide. It could be a natural disaster.

It could be a lot of things, but my point is, it doesn’t matter. It will be something that causes the system to collapse. What matters is that the monetary system is so unstable. The blunders have already been made. It’s not as if we’re going to do some bad things that’s going to create risks. The risk is already there. It’s embedded. We’re just waiting for that catalyst.
This week in Communism News is in South Africa as the tyranny there is expected to move into 'Phase Two:"
As South Africa descends into what its radical rulers refer to as the “Second Phase” of their communist revolution, warnings about an approaching genocide and full-blown communist tyranny are growing progressively louder.
Comrade Ann Barnhardt (hat owner) visited with Comrade Andrea Shea King (hat owner) at Blogtalk Radio.  Listen!

A Hearty Ushanka Tip to the anti-communist behind this poster campaign in Brooklyn!  It is in response to the list of prohibited words the Hillary 2016 campaign recently released to the masses. Imagine what we'll be told if she gets elected...


We know the brains behind this one below.  Comrade Diann (hat owner) responded to this week's meeting between our dear leader and Cuba's dear leader.  Here's a comment I never thought I'd write:
While both Cuba and America chose in the early 60's to wait the other out, it was Cuba's decision to wait for America to go communist that paid off in the end.

And last, a very creative, and wonderfully sarcastic response to the recent Rolling Stone fake rape scandal that resulted in 0 firings at the 'journalism' outlet:

Indiana

It's a tale as old as time....
Liberals over-react;
Conservatives spank liberals;
Someone makes a Hitler video.
Indiana Governor Mike Pence recently signed a pro-choice bill into law.  The law restored an old right of businesses to choose who they conduct business with.  For you old seasoned guys and gals, you may remember this:



Steve Crowder did a fine job with this Hitler video:




Some images I've collected along the way:






It isn't about one's sexual preference.

It is about destroying the individual, the work ethic and the values of the independent business owner.

It is about destroying America.

It is about control.

Democrat Maneuver Warfare

The Democrat probing continues.

Democrat senator Feinstein said in 1939 last week:
These documents are not, in my view, protected by the First Amendment and should be removed from the Internet.
The Liberal Progressive Communist senator wants to ban access to The Anarchist's Cookbook. 


Amazon review by Spitzer:
This book is interesting to read for its historical snapshot of late 60's drug induced hippy era idealism and anti-establishment rebellion, but otherwise THIS IS PRETTY DARNED FUNNY !!!!
Before they can begin the attrition phase of their War Communism, the Democrat Party must probe the citizens' defenses with these maneuver tactics.  Burning books is so... Nazi.  We'll call it "restricting access to the socially undesirable."

You can download The Anarchist Cookbook in PDF - here.

Premature Ecommunation



Washington state took the bold, yet premature, step of flying the Chinese Communist flag in front of their state house. 



This is the same state that passed I594, a tyranny bill turning their law-abiding citizens into criminals in the name of the greater good, or something.  Like the citizens in the video above, the WA citizens are fighting back: Ushanka, and Townhall.


Gateway Pundit recommends you call Washington's Democrat Governor Jay Insless to share your feedback about his state's leftward turn: 303-902-4111.

U/T: The citizen arrested for taking the communist flag down in Washington.

Correction 11am:

The gentleman who took the flag down was not arrested.   Kudos to him, regardless.
