Dear friends,

Things are getting quite interesting in the mainstream media. Here and there, something real is seeping through the omnipresent facade.

I read in an opinion paper in the New York Times (author: Maureen Dowd) that Biden was removed from the presidential race through a genuine “coup” or overthrow. It’s just an isolated article amidst the vast sea of media content that upholds the illusion of the day, but it’s still being picked up here and there in the mainstream media.

The content of the original article goes like this: Biden fell victim to an actual conspiracy by Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, and Jeffries. On alternative media, this conclusion was reached much earlier: the way Biden was removed from the race bears all the characteristics of a coup. This conclusion was drawn from a series of factors, including the fact that in the first days after the withdrawal, neither Biden himself nor people from his entourage publicly communicated about the withdrawal from the race, except through a letter signed by Biden “as if with a gun to his head.”

Is it a problem that a number of influential Democratic figures forced Biden behind the scenes to withdraw? Yes, because Biden was indeed democratically elected as the presidential candidate by millions of Democratic Party members. Kamala Harris was not democratically nominated at all.

The choice of Harris is, to put it mildly, remarkable. She initially had little to no grassroots support within the Democratic voter base; her knowledge of crucial aspects of the state system and key societal issues (such as the pressing phenomenon of inflation) seems almost nonexistent; and nature certainly did not endow her with rhetorical prowess.
