You are the news now. Handle w/ care.
What a narrative spike! Regardless of opinions about the man - or perhaps because of them - the election of Johnson as Speaker appears to be a rather BIG narrative moment.
While it wasn't quite the 15 vote drama that ushered in McCarthy with Trump's approval and a whole host of Maga-won concessions, the past 3-week period of non-Speakership - coming exactly at the 'right time' to prevent knee-jerk reactions in the House to the Israel situation - feels like it has heightened expectations, emotions and FOCUS.
Lots of pedes are rushing to see, or trying to evaluate - is Johnson a good guy? Is he a bad guy? Is this a win/ Is this a loss?
"His first action was to support Israel! He's a bad guy! IT's a LOSS!"
"Already the Left Liberals are losing their minds! He's a good guy! It's a WIN!"
"Pencil Neck hates him! It's a win! He's a good guy!"
This sort of response is understandable. After all, our pedes are researchers and digital soldiers. We have eyes on things that a much larger majority of Americans, nay, humans, do not have their eyes on. There is a strong tendency among us to want to figure out exactly what is going on, as soon as possible, even though by now most of us recognize the fact that there is a LOT going on that we simply do not know about, in terms of who is directing it and what impact it is happening, or even if it factually IS happening.
There is one thing, however, that I think almost all of us will agree on: whatever is happening NOW - and has been happening for the past 7 years - is monumental in nature. Never has more been at stake, for the US, for the world, for humanity.
And because of that, it's only natural to be emotionally tense and emotionally invested. That's correct and right. If we didn't care, we would not be here.
Another point many of us would agree on is that we are involved in, directly, an information psychological war being conducted using fifth generation warfare. And for that reason, it's important that we examine ourselves, reflect on our equipment, our armor, and our practice.
Our equipment is our mind, our capacity to reason, think, see in and see through. Our armor is our spirit and psychological makeup, which defines our resilience and resistance to disinformation, to psyop manipulation from the enemy, and our own capacity to utilize our equipment to maximum effect.
What brings these both together is our practice. For vets who were tracking Q back in late 2017, 2018, we've had a lot of training, simply due to the reams of experience we've garnered over the years, through trial and error, making mistakes and re-adjusting and learning.
For newcomers, developing our practice is a constant challenge, as this part of the war is far more challenging than the period when Q was posting ever was.
The 48-Hour Rule
One practice we know is the 48-hour rule. But does it apply to Johnson?
The 48 hour rule has been a technique for not jumping on a report and waiting to see whether or not the report is actually factual or not.
Example: Israel bombed the Hospital!!! > 48 hours: Hamas missiled a hospital
The current reports seem rather conclusive that Johnson has been elected Speaker, so I think we can accept that as factual.
However, we are in an information war, actually a 5G war that is taking place on myriad fronts, all the time, one of those being the political front (on various levels, tho).
As to the impact the Johnson will have, whether him being speaker turns out to be a positive for MAGA and America, that might take a bit more time than 2 days. Tactics, strategy, maneuvering, these are all important in the political sphere.
Case in point, a lot of people REACTING to Johnson saying his first order of business will be to support Israel. But I resonate with Professor Patriot's comment which he posted on Telegram:
I can understand why people think that Mike Johnson might have his priorities misplaced when his, “first order of business,” was support for Israel.
I’m just going to lightly disagree.
The first order of business was not truly the first order of business. It was no business at all. It was just a lob. “Hey, Israel, we support you.” No wrangling or heavy discussion. It’s like blowing out the candles.
Business will begin when things like the border, war funding, election interference, impeachment, etc… are addressed, and those topics will require long negotiations and wrangling and beating each other up for position. That could have never happened today.
Johnson took a nice victory lap and threw the crowd a kiss.
Give him more than an hour to address the hard stuff.
We are utterly unrealistic in our expectations.
We need to get away from the practice of reacting to this or that element, rather than observing the strategic unfolding of manoeuvres for eventual gain of territory.
I think all anons who are aware that the DS has been laundering money via their various overseas wars, but the situation in Israel is different from the situation in Ukraine on (what seems) a large number of fronts.
Wins are nice, but not all that look like wins are wins, and not all that appear to be losses are losses. A possible Case in Point: 2020 election being stolen. It looks like a massive loss, but if in fact it was 'allowed' to take place because it was necessary in order to destroy the deep state and the Cabal regime, then is it a loss, or a win (the outcome remains to be seen, 48 hour rule, or 48 month rule, notwithstanding).
Personally, I'm not really that interested in what Johnson himself does over the next few weeks. What I'm really curious about now is why Jordan etc, could NOT gain unanimous support from the Republicans in congress, but why (or how) Johnson could. That's really got me wondering.
Let's watch and observe as things play out. Fruits over time are the clincher. For now, I think we should apply more than 48 hours before deciding if Johnson is our guy or not. I suggest watching DJT and following his lead. He's the five-star general in this confusing, chaotic war.
Maybe they should claim Israeli citizenship. Might speed up the process.
