Big Ugly Grifters (BUGS) Are Out to Destroy the Common Man

[Editor’s Note: Big Ugly Grifters are destroying places such as Renovo in rural Clinton County, Pennsylvania and killing the common man with green scam politics and corruption.]
So Moses stretched out his staff over Egypt, and the Lord made an east wind blow across the land all that day and all that night. By morning the wind had brought the locusts; they invaded all Egypt and settled down in every area of the country in great numbers. Never before had there been such a plague of locusts, nor will there ever be again. They covered all the ground until it was black. They devoured all that was left after the hail—everything growing in the fields and the fruit on the trees. Nothing green remained on tree or plant in all the land of Egypt. Exodus 10:13
This was neither the first, nor the last, plague endured by arrogant Egyptians who didn’t want to let the enslaved Jewish people go. Today, the locusts are another form of bug; what I call Big Ugly Grifters (BUGS) and they, too, are devouring everything. They are motivated solely by an insatiable hunger for money and power and are destroying all before them in a quest to quench their desires. They are slowly but surely enslaving all of us, just as the Egyptians did with the Jews. They want everything, from our property to the right to control our very thoughts. Will these Big Ugly Grifters ever harvest the whirlwind? Only, if we flip the script.
Several weeks ago, our colleague, Jim Willis, wrote about how Big Ugly Grifters and their wealthy enablers named Haas and Heinz killed a wonderful natural gas power plant in Renovo, Pennsylvania, to the great distress of locals. Supposing these elitists gave a damn about locals most effected by their action would be naive in the extreme, though. They only don’t care, they just as soon Renovo die and the residents move to some 15-minute city closer to a city where they can be tightly controlled (no unnecessary travel, smaller footprints, meatless diets, etc.). Consider these cruel comments by the grifters:
“Bechtel’s decision to cancel this dangerous plant is a crucial win for the health, welfare and safety of the residents of Renovo, who have been peddled lies about this project’s purported benefits and illegally cut out of the permitting process,” said Joseph Otis Minott, executive director and chief counsel of the Clean Air Council.
“It is a win for Renovo and for all Pennsylvanians when we realize that the fracked gas industry doesn’t make sense – from an economic, energy or environmental health perspective,” said PennFuture’s senior attorney Jessica O’Neill.
“The cancellation of this proposed fracked gas burning power plant helps move us forward to a future powered by wind and solar power,” said Robert Ukeiley, an environmental health lawyer at the Center for Biological Diversity.
Only a trust-dunder socialist type such as Joseph Otis Minott, who seems to have never done anything in real life except grift off government and rich Pennsylvanians to do advocacy, would have the hutzpah to call the killing of economic opportunity for a suffering Renovo a “win.” That’s because he’s never experienced the fear of being jobless and, living in Philadelphia, has no idea what Renovo needs or wants. He couldn’t possibly care less, in fact. He aligns with other Big Ugly Grifters, who, using the green label as cover, treat the Remove residents as just “collateral damage.”
We’re seeing the same sort of callousness and “screw you” attitude everywhere these day. Joe Biden’s Department of Justice just let off his son on a gun charge the same DOJ bragged about getting tough with just a few months ago. We are expected and told by the media to just accept it as natural and ignore the tens of millions the Biden crime family received from foreign countries. Moreover, the corrupt hack Attorney General of the United States has decried any questioning of his actions as a threat to democracy. “Just shut up, you rubes,” he basically tells us.
We’re also seeing the Brexit deal voted in by Brits effectively cancelled by a British Prime Minister chosen via what was nothing less than a coup only weeks after the previous P.M., who advocated for fracking was removed at the apparent orders of Big Ugly Grifters who run the UK’s biggest banks.
We are seeing Republicans collaborating with Democrats to vastly increase spending on Green Eggs and Scam in a budget busting deal that is helping to fuel inflation. Meanwhile, big banks gather in Paris to strategize how they can profit from global warming hoopla, John Kerry dreams of condemning and taking farms, the Dutch parliament considers legislation that force homeowners looking to sell to do so at regulated prices to favored groups and governments everywhere are looking to thwart free speech.
And, on and on it goes. Everyone with the slightest bit of institutional power has joined hands to give the common man the middle finger. We were told lie, after lie, after lie about COVID. then, Big Tech, Big Government, Big Ugly Grifters and those naive enough to believe the liars, collaborated to deny the right to even question the lies. Now, even speech by Presidential candidates is denied, especially if they’re Republicans (e.g., Donald Trump) or Democrats (e.g., Bobby Kennedy) who don’t follow the establishment script.
Through it all, we see an utter contempt by elites for what the common man thinks, needs or wants. Instead, our ruling class members walk like Egyptians, confident they know what’s best for Renovo residents and everyone else below them.
Think about New York, which is subservient to its own set of elites named Rockefeller, Fink, Park, etc. and what the state is doing to both upstate and downstate poor by squelching not only natural gas development but even natural gas use. The Southern Tier is dying. New York City is dying yet again. They couldn’t care less.
Meanwhile, the Mayor, who kowtowed to elitist virtue signaling by proudly proclaiming “sanctuary city”status with regard to illegal aliens, now decides he doesn’t want them after and ships them upstate. Talk about callousness!
Think, too, of the callousness of the Biden Administration in imposing vaccine mandates on our military, even for members who already had COVID, heedless of the impacts on their health or the consequences to their families, all done in collusion with Big Pharma.
But, of course, none of the Big Ugly Grifters, be they of the green or pharma type, simply don’t care. Calling them out for hypocrisy is pointless as it’s a badge of honor for them. They’re better than us, entitled that is, which gets us back to what happened in Renovo. It wasn’t a matter of policies or politics.
Rather, it was an exercise of a raw power by Big Ugly Grifters whose greed knows no bounds and the good people of Renovo were simply in the way. The climate scam must go on, after all, and little people cannot be allowed to stand in the way. So, shills for the ruling class of elites, grabbed the latter’s money and filed lawsuit after lawsuit and manipulated corrupted institutions to kill the deal. They effectively killed the common men and women of Renovo and then danced on their graves.
What can be done now? As we said here earlier, sue the bastards. Sue the agencies, sue the shills, sue the enabler foundations. Sue them for abusing tax-exemption and doing politics as private foundations. Demand support from County Commissioners, local state legislators and organizations who say they represent your interests and don’t. Appear before them and demand answers as to why they’re allowing this to happen and why they aren’t taking action. Cause a ruckus and don’t relent. Be the locusts and flip the script.
