Theory: As the Royal Trump Court cuts back on counterintelligence and policies to insulate itself from collection by foreign adversaries, said foreign adversaries stepped in and learned a helluva lot to play, orchestrate, and turn this administration against our national interests. Just a thought.

Sauron is appearing on the scene as concerns rise about crime among the most wealthy.

‼️Russia: In its “Results of the Year” series of articles, Kommersant brought up the mysterious death of Minister of Transport Roman Starovoit. This unsettled the “elite” in a way previous deaths did not. www.kommersant.ru/doc/8292571

It’s funny but we gotta get serious about the hitler “youth” movement that this is meant to mobilize longterm

It’s worth a try! They’ve ruined democracy!

Stephen Friend was fired from the FBI a couple of years ago for siding with the Jan 6 rioters. Kash hired him back. Now Kash has fired him again for claiming that the FBI is lying about the identity of the Jan 6 bomber, and for ranting about Kash on a podcast. www.ms.now/opinion/kash...

And the real fight right now is whether this "inevitability" becomes the accepted starting point for all future decisions regarding the aggression against Ukraine. End. And now, you know.

They are assumptions presented as realism. Nothing fundamental changed on the ground today. What changed is how time and agency are being described. This is "not peace yet". It is preconditioning.

It makes the framing "slide-in" without resistance. Notice the language that follows when "inevitability" takes hold. "Better to take a deal now." "Coming months." "Battlefield realities." "Reconstruction with Russia’s help." These are not facts.

They make outcomes feel normal before they are examined. People stop asking whether something "should happen" and start discussing "how to live with it". That is why Trump appearing calm and friendly is not reassuring. It removes friction.

Aggression turns into "unfortunate reality" instead of a choice. And the setting matters more than people think. This was not the White House. It was Mar-a-Lago. Dinner. Conversation. Informality. Even the poll got lunch. Informal settings lower defenses.

Negotiations stop being about justice or security. They become about "managing losses". That kind of shift happens quietly. If the future is treated as already decided, resisting it starts to look "reckless". Supporting Ukraine starts to look like "prolonging the inevitable".

"it's almost like Trump is acting like an intermediary, trying to express Putin's wishes to Zelenskyy and to the world, which is what he did after the Alaska summit," @radiofreetom.bsky.social said. "It's what he does every time he gets off the phone with Putin." www.rawstory.com/trump-267483...

Rejecting “blood and soil” made the United States great. Whether someone was born on the wrong side of an ethnic conflict was left behind in the “old country” for a nation of people who commit together to the principles of the Declaration of Independence. It's our American birthright. #WideAwake

In industry after industry from food (Albertson's), to guns, healthcare, real estate, insurance etc etc they pillage & profit, bankrupt businesses yet get endless credit. Feinberg is in charge of $1 trillion Pentagon budget funded by every taxpayer, & just gave a Pentagon *loan* to the Trump family

Forced removal of ethnic, racial, or religious groups is ethnic cleansing – stop calling it 'deportation'. It's also a crime against humanity.

We'll identify a direct correlation between rapists and their AI companion usage. There's zero chance that "I never say no" doesn't warp the brains of men, many of whom have a poor understanding of consent in the first place.

Let's go over Judge Jeanine Pirro's assessment of the pipe bomber filed today in federal court, shall we? First, Pirro claims that there was an "error" with the cell towers on January 5th, but they're sure it's all good now. 1/

Flynn wasn’t always this bad. His early career was marked with some great work and policy, which is why he rose. There are many theories on when it went bad, but it went down really fast. Obama fired him very quickly after seeing what a mess Flynn had become. Unfortunately for the DIA workforce …

they're piloting the president like ratatouille with AI videos..

Times are tough, and some of my paid subscribers have had to cancel lately due to financial hardships. I get it, and I wish for better times for us all. Unfortunately, paid subscriptions are now dipping into unsustainable territory. I am hoping to get eight new paid subscribers before the new year.

Burley takes an unexpected approach to a comprehensive overview of the contemporary hard right here, telling it through the lens of Richard Spencer's attempt at a rebrand - his niche path back to relevance thru a fascist Greco-Roman sun god framework. Useful long form overview for fash researchers.

That was only a preview.

he gets to do this constantly because, in addition to his own cult of personality and a media apparatus in his pocket, we lack an opposition leadership that has chosen to make the strikes a *principled* principle issue of concern to the public.

This golden stuff

"Like the British in Boston, Trumpism holds entrenched positions. It is loud. It is armed with procedural advantages. It thrives on forcing opponents into reckless confrontations. It thrives on resentment. But one year into Trump 2.0, we have not lost."

It's fun and games to sell millions of dollars in silver that doesn't actually exist, until people start hoarding physical silver, and it is suddenly very hard to hide your tracks on all those millions of certificates for silver you never had in the first place. Absolute clown global economy.

I really wanna emphasize how insane it is that a physical metal is effectively short squeezing. There's a lot of reasons why, but at the end of the day it's because like everything on the markets, price is fucking rigged, and the people doing the rigging are now in trouble lol.

Presidential pardon power must be abolished – retroactively from 20 January 2025 forward.

NEW: Sources and internal emails confirm the Epstein files review inMarch (where they spent $1M in overtime & had 1000+ agents working 24-hour shifts) was a review of the NY files. There's no way they "lost" a million more. I'm gong live to discuss in 30 minutes: www.youtube.com/live/rx7Tyhz...
