Today we have Buer, a Great President of Hell, having fifty legions of demons under his command. He appears when the Sun is in Sagittarius. He teaches natural and moral philosophy, logic, and the virtues of all herbs and plants, and is also capable of healing all infirmities (especially of men) and bestows good familiars. He has been described as being in the shape of Sagittarius, which is as a centaur with a bow and arrows.

Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis was a guest on Jim Bakker’s television program, hawking his forthcoming book, The Deeper State: Inside the War on Trump by Corrupt Elites, Secret Societies, and the Builders of An Imminent Final Empire. I have found it to be a general rule that the longer a title of a book is, the worse it will be. In this case, I have no doubt the rule applies. Anyroad, Mr. Maginnis went on to define Washington D.C. as the very heart of evil. Okay, who’s surprised?

Maginnis explained that there are three levels of influence at work in Washington: the elected officials and government bureaucrats, the lobbyists and interest groups, and the “demonic” forces that “are manipulating the second and the first” groups.

I think you’ll find, Mr. Maginnis, that’s there no need for demons. Simple human characteristics are at work here – the corruption caused by greed and a love of power. In particular, the conservative christians infiltrating government at all levels are the worst of the worst, and they certainly don’t have knowledge or goodness attributed to various rulers of demons. Take Buer*, our example today. He teaches natural and moral philosophy, logic, the virtues of all herbs and plants, and is a healer. Can you name one conservative christian who could do any of that? Or be interested in it? No. Because all they want is the power to oppress and harm. They want to completely subjugate women; they also want to put all people of colour back in their “place”. They’re okay with torturing queer folk. They wish to quash any and all dissent. Stinks of fascism to me.

Maginnis said that since he has been working in Washington for 50 years, having spent the last 15 years at the Pentagon as well as having served as the vice president of policy at the Family Research Council, he knows what he is talking about.

A common refrain of old white men, “I know what I’m talking about! I do!” First, catch your demon. Then we can talk, Mr. Maginnis.

“I’ve personally met people who identify themselves as witches that are in the government,” he said. “I have seen things in the government I will not talk about. But over 50 years, I’ve got a wealth of experience working with the political class, the bureaucracy, the lobbyists … I’ve been in the non-government organizations and then, of course, I’ve been very much involved in the spiritual climate in Washington. So when I talk about those three layers, they’re all very, very clear to me, they’re all interactive and Washington is the heart of evil in the United States, as well as the world.”

Y’know, you strike me as being terribly credulous and gullible, Mr. Maginnis. I can’t help but wonder just how often people were yanking your chain. I doubt I would have been able to resist. Probably would have whispered to you about the secret underground of druids who shape shift their gender just to confuzzle the poor straight people in order to make their lavatory experiences hell or somesuch. The problem, of course, of yanking a chain like yours is that you believe any shit someone pours into your mouth.

As for Washington being the heart of evil, well, right now I wouldn’t argue that one much, but not for the same reasons. It’s people like yourself who are the rotten, decaying stench wafting forth from the seat of governance. A stench so thick, it’s supporting the Tiny Tyrant.

*I have always been extraordinarily lucky when it comes to dogs, getting the best of the best, those one in a thousand companions. Same with rats. As Buer is responsible for good familiars, I suppose I owe some thanks.
