Let’s Call It Blue State Fraud
The time for gentlemanly “grave regard” for the corrupt monstrosity that is our government sector today is over and done with.
Christopher Chantrill | March 23, 2026
If President Eisenhower were alive today he would doubtless bolster his warning about the Military Industrial Complex -- and that the combination of science and federal money was “gravely to be regarded” -- with a grave regard for the Fraud Industrial Complex of which we’ve heard tell from Nick Shirley.
But I think we can all agree that the time for gentlemanly “grave regard” for the corrupt monstrosity that is our government sector today is over and done with.
What we need is a nice short phrase suitable for printing on the mostly peaceful protest signs that our liberal activist groups churn out by the jillions, something short and sweet. I axed Grok to come up with a sign and this is what it came up with:
It looks almost real, doesn’t it! But Grok being Grok, it provided a fake print-shop sign as well as the fake hand-drawn sign.
So now, whenever you are eating lunch in a lefty lesbian-owned restaurant and you hear the blue-haired staff talking excitedly about their next Indivisible-funded No Kings! peaceful protest you can bellow “Blue State Fraud” as they kick you out for making them feel “unsafe.”
By the way, now that Nick Shirley is encountering threats to his safety as he performs his mild-mannered investigation of Blue State Fraud, he has decided it is time for you to help him hire his own personal security.
Now, I understand that many readers at AT must be shocked that Nick Shirley is getting threatened as he peacefully investigates fraudulent misappropriation of our hard-earned tax dollars by devoted activists. But that is life in the 21st century.
Gosh! I never thought of that: blue-haired lesbians in blue states where Blue State Fraud rears its ugly head! It all connects!
But here is my question. This Blue State Fraud, that has been reported in Blue Fraud State Minnesota and Blue Fraud State Washington and Blue Fraud State California, seems awfully well organized. Nick Shirley finds “learing” centers, presumably run by people that can’t spell. He encounters a whole community of hospice providers all located in a converted motel.
You think that people that can’t even get their signs spelled right have the institutional knowledge to work the Blue State Fraud machine? I mean: here in the City of Seattle a homeowner needs to navigate a vast regulatory minefield in order to get permission to cut down a tree in the planting strip out front. You think that all it takes to open a childcare or a hospice business is signing on the dotted line?
I tell you what I think. I think that after various migrant communities have helped the local Democratic machine get out the vote they get a visit from someone in the know who tells them how and where to qualify for providing childcare or hospice services.
And I doubt if the process is as simple as “go to this office and tell them Gavin sent you.” I expect that the morbidly obese women bureaucrats that spend their days at the office discussing how long till they get advanced from Level 4 to Level 5 would want their union representative to find them a safer job rather than risk disciplinary action.
But what does it all mean, this Blue State Fraud? It is simple really.
Our rulers can’t get elected by shoveling out more money at workers, or pensioners, at the poor, not anymore. I guess that they must have maxxed out the national credit card on that. So now, the only way for them to win elections is by getting innocent asylum-seeking migrants to the polls. And vote by mail. And for that they need skilled people connected to the migrant community and energetic people who can collect ballots and stuff them in the ballot drop boxes of a Tuesday.
So today, our rulers shovel money not at ordinary American voters but at the subordinates of the deep state operatives that keep the rulers in power. And they reward them with childcare grants and hospice businesses.
That, too, is what the NGO Industrial Complex is all about, only the educated class needs to be persuaded not just with money but by the certain knowledge that they are fighting injustice and oppression.
Let me be clear. All the world knows that there is nothing more important for the survival of the human race than that every credentialed educated person be provided with a fulfilling career in the non-profit sector fighting for the oppressed. The alternative is not to be imagined.
And if it takes a bit of Blue State Fraud to get there, too bad, you racist.
Because you know what? Just about every regime on this planet, whether Iranian, European, or our own Blue States, would rather the country be destroyed than give up its grip on power.
