51 Whores Who Sold Their Honor-- Incomparable John Kass on ‘The Letter’

Calling them by that name is an insult to whores the world over.

There are very few columnists whose writings I admire and deeply respect, of whom I make a real effort not to miss a single word they publish as I learn valuable lessons and insights from every one of them. Included — only a small sampling — in this group of the last journalists of the Old School tradition would certainly be Victor Davis Hanson, Roger Kimball, Mark Steyn, Mollie Hemingway, and several of her colleagues at The Federalist. In the top echelon of this seemingly ever-shrinking honor society, an endangered species if ever there was one, is John Kass, formerly of the Chicago Tribune, now the publisher of johnkassnews.com.

His work is, as the title suggests, incomparable. His style ranges from the hard-hitting type of investigative reporting one would expect from a reporter who spent most of his life telling the story of Chicago corruption, to poignant, heart-wrenching, touching, contemplative, and searching stories, such as one of his most famous columns, his Christmas column, “O Holy Night,” first published years ago and updated annually. It is simply beautiful and highly recommended.

He has had multiple health issues, some of which have been life-threatening, and he is just returning to writing again. On Sunday, he published a treatment on the cesspool we are living in under the Biden totalitarian regime (“Hunter, Joe and the Shameless 51”). It is one of the finest pieces I have seen, a reading of which should be required by every single American citizen. And there should be an additional requirement that all the comments on both his website, linked above, and those on X, be read as well, as some of those are quite perceptive.

Here are a few samples from this invaluable article, which has not only gone viral on X but has now been published nationally at RealClearPolitics. I hope they pique your interest sufficiently to open up the link and read it —at least once!

After setting the stage by noting how the corporate media is in total panic, “shrieking of impending doom if their decrepit and corrupt old Joe Biden fades in Thursday’s presidential debate,” and that 80 million of us are justifiably angry at the way the media and Silicon Valley rigged the last election by hiding the truth behind “The Laptop From Hell,” he suggests that we resist our justifiably indignant instincts and pause for a moment:

Instead, give your beloved country a little of your patience and a few moments of honest, quiet reflection. I’m talking of a silence that you might imagine it walking through an American Armed Forces cemetery in Northern France, or sitting in an American graveyard bright with poppies in Belgium. Or perhaps your own backyard. Think of it. Yes, let’s avoid the partisan screaming for a moment and let’s go into a Midwestern backyard on this summer morning in late June. See it. A redwing blackbird sits on the fence, a red male cardinal trills from a white puffy branch of the hydrangea bush. So rather than demand your revenge just now, please think in silence and mourn the greatest nation in the history of the world.

He then briefly goes through the catalog of the 51 criminals of “the intel community” who pulled off one of the greatest con jobs in the history of American politics by writing the infamous letter stating that the laptop had all the earmarks of “Russian disinformation,” giving Biden the perfect tool to use in the final debate before the 2020 election. Polling since that time has been clear that something in the range of (from memory) approximately 16% of the voting public would not have voted for Biden had they known the laptop was legitimate, as was reported in the suppressed article in the New York Post a few days before the election.

There were 51 of them in total, 51 whores who sold their honor. 51 who sold America’s future for a partisan payoff like the cheapest and greasiest of corrupt Chicago aldermen. Should that be taught in the public schools?

*** It was a lie. The Hunter Biden laptop was not Russian disinformation. Biden knew this. The so-called “intelligence officials” knew this. And CNN and other corrupt corporate media carried the Democrat water. *** These are the infamous spies who lied.

There is much more, or, as Kass puts it, “So many rocks under which Obama Deep State schemers have worked their various intrigues.” It is an invaluable source of material about the depth of the rot upon which our “leadership” rests in this nest of tyrants. I will send it to my Congressman, Matt Gaetz, and ask that he enter it into the Congressional Record, along with a request that I be informed why these traitors have not been forced to testify under oath before a congressional committee. As I am not a booker for the Sean Hannity Show, I know I’ll be lucky to get a response from one of his clerks to thank me for my inquiry about agricultural allotments (it has happened before!) but I will give it a shot nonetheless.

Speaking of which — why hasn’t the Republican majority Congress put these thugs under oath and forced them to tell the American public the exact extent of the knowledge they had about the legitimacy of the laptop?

Anyone? Anyone?

What are the chances they will do so before the election? Ice cubes in hell a rough estimate?

God Help us.
