Do I dare venture a comment, or just spare everyone the tedium, don my lifejacket, proceed to my lifeboat station, and just wait a bit, hoping that a latter day SS Carpathia will arrive in time? I figure the sinking will take place somewhere between July 4th and Nov. 3rd this year.
Mr. Trump is steering the ENTIRE PLANET toward the iceberg. I have stated multiple times here that impeachment of this monstrosity is utterly futile, but the fact that the Dems refuse to at least "go on record" as having tried simply befuddles me. The Dems have already drilled holes in the bottom of the lifeboat they might acquire as the ship goes down!!
“I can hear Democrats telling me to leave Kamala alone and that the DNC’s actions are nothing compared to Trump and his clown car crew. But do you seriously think that the DNC and the presidential candidates it props up, candidates like Kamala Harris or Pete Buttigieg, are really the answer to the crises we face as a nation?”
We are long past time that any of our data - image, video, email, text, etc - can be considered private. At a minimum, they are for sale to a commercial entity; at worst, they become part of the government panopticon used to monitor and control us. The 4th amendment is just a quaint concept from long ago.
But I suppose there will be many Democrats who say the Democratic panopticon will be kinder and more diverse than the Republican one.
Much of the First Amendment was also put out with the White House trash. I see a CNN headline today about "faith leaders" getting ready to demolish the "wall of separation between church and state"!! Where the hell have they been since Jan. 20, 2025?? That "wall" was also taken out to the curb with the White House trash. Or, the debris was perhaps used as fill beneath the site of the forthcoming Big Beautiful Trump Ballroom! :-(
It's always ironic, isn't it, when our "leaders" tell us we must be opposed to theocratic regimes (mostly in the Mideast), as they're doing much the same here with Christian Nationalists who want a biblical rule of the U.S.
Oh yeah, I've become an Authority on Irony in recent years. It's a fact that the "Christo-Nazis" (wish I'd coined that term, but I learned years ago someone had beaten me to it) have had their plans in place for decades to install a theocracy here in the U.S. Killing Roe v. Wade did not satisfy them, of course, they just keep escalating their assault on the very notion of secular government. They are warring against TRUE Freedom of Religion, which means the right to be FREE from their perversion of morality and their dangerous sway over governmental activities.
I hear that ICE Barbie is now trying to force Google, Meta, and other providers to turn over their gazillions of records, so they can be mined for critical comments about her department, and info about the makers of such comments.
No, I think this is different. In Minnesota, she wanted voter roll information. Now, she has subpoenaed social media companies to discover who's said anything negative about ICE and CBP. If she gets the info, she'll need a much bigger staff to go through the tens of millions of critical comments.
That's right, I had it wrong. Maybe she can get help from the FBI - given the stellar job they're doing with the Epstein files. We are in deep, deep trouble.
Absolutely nothing new here. As Tocqueville wrote in 1831 "As one digs deeper into the national character of the Americans, one sees that they have sought the value of everything in this world only in the answer to this single question: how much money will it bring in?" The only thing that has changed is that you don't have to dig very deep at all these days to see what Alexis said.
I see that AOC went over to demonstrate her knowledge of international security issues and came away looking like a fool - she's clearly ready for a Presidential run in 2028.
Be careful with these AOC’s better stop before it’s too late because the people AOC & Co are representing have a really even more crazy agenda than her…. I regret the day I left Tarrytown and my job in NJC to return to Europe because I believed I would live there peacefully as a retiree… It’s too Clooney and without my Rottweilers here in the South of France, I would been lost… They’re more clear in their heads...
I could believe any agenda from the DNC. My own feeling is that AOC running in 2028, if she does, will be for her to become the VP candidate, as it won't be 'her turn' to go after the big chair until a later election.
I suppose it doesn't matter where you go - you can't escape what's going on.
There was once a study by KGB on the option of exposing populations to an incompetent government. Unfortunately, I can no longer find this study, and I don't believe that the FSB has retrieved anything like this from the archives. But I had to analyze the Green Movement in Germany up close. The best example of these moralists is the woman who loudly proclaimed in the European Parliament as German foreign minister that “we are at war with Russia.” She now holds a leading position in the UN. In that respect, it's true, it does not matter where to go, Palantir & Co will follow…
My advice to the Dems (oddly, they've never hired me as a consultant!) would be to keep Ms. Harris out of view. BTW I know she has at least one book in circulation, if not several already, which would bring her income from royalties. I sure don't want to read them! As for 'Mayor Pete,' he clearly will never be electable as POTUS. Now, it's true I did not believe Obama could win the presidency, so surprises do happen. But really, an openly gay man for POTUS? He'd have to proclaim he had gone on his knees to Jesus and changed his ways!! Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania is still spoken of a lot as a viable candidate for 2028 (boldly assuming there IS an election!), but there's still that "little problem" of being Jewish.
The Question no longer is: “What can be done to prevent a fully functional and operational, autocratic, plutocratic, oligarchic, patriarchal, totally totalitarian Dictatorship from happening in America’s near future?”
The Question now is: “Once that Ruling Political Class/Caste-Deep State Dictatorship happens, what will be the most efficient and effective strategies, tactics, and actions that those who oppose It can take?”
Those who would undertake to confront, combat, defeat, and disintegrate that RPC/C-DS need the equivalent of a "National Security Strategy" of our own.
That of course remains the only course open to us, the system being so thoroughly rigged against genuinely independent candidates. And let us note that Donald Dearest apparently intends to send Fed. officials to "monitor" polling places for the midterm elections, an unmistakable effort to intimidate those not inclined to vote GOP. In my state, I believe we are not required by law to show photo ID at the polls yet in my town it's always demanded. I have never objected to this, as I do feel the need to participate in elections, infuriating as they tend to be. :-(
That assumes, Bill, that there will even BE an election to “vote blue” ~ or red, green, purple, white, black, brown, or yellow ~ in.
What would it take to cancel ELECTION2026? Another 9/11? Another COVID Event? Another 2008-esque financial “¢risi$”? Food, Gas, and Electricity Riots; and not just in the Cities controlled by Democrats?
Yes, thank you Bill! The e-mail list was all Ms. Harris had to sell, having already sold her soul to (that zionist entity which must remain nameless).

"Captain, the ship is sinking!"
"Let's elect a new captain. Perhaps a "diverse" gay one. Pete Buttigieg! Put him at the wheel!"
Searching for a life vest and a life boat as the band plays "Nearer, my God, to thee"
Kinda adds a different twist to "Celebrity Cruise Lines," huh...?

That was part of the proposed deal by ICE Barbie in Minneapolis - turned down. But likely coming to a town near everyone one of us.
No, I think this is different. In Minnesota, she wanted voter roll information. Now, she has subpoenaed social media companies to discover who's said anything negative about ICE and CBP. If she gets the info, she'll need a much bigger staff to go through the tens of millions of critical comments.

We surely are.

"Greed is Good." Tongue firmly in Cheek... I can be had but I'm not cheap...! Politics the dirtiest game in town. Charming as always!
This is even more funny then the Munich Security Conference which feels like peak geopolitical theatre. 🐸☠️

I have her Book Greg "107 Days" Kamala Harris.
Ha!! The full title ought to be "107 WASTED Days"!!
Her email list didn't help her (or us) much, did it?
And to whom did she sell her soul a couple years ago. (notice the absense of a question mark)

The answer is easy, Jeff. Vote blue no matter who! Mayor Pete will save us.

Hell, who knows, Jeff? Almost anything seems possible.
At this stage of The Game, Bill, i'd say that Everything IS possible.
