    Democrats deflated. Still can’t figure out why it wasn’t a Kamala landslide.

    “Tone it down a little?”

    From NBC, Pundit say, “My neighbor said he knew who would win, it was the price of butter at $2 a pound. I said, yeah, sure pal.”
    Female anchor “…It’s Seven dollars.”
    It’s what?”
    It’s seven dollars.”
    “What?”
    “Butter is seven dollars.”
    “What is it? Plated with gold???” Teehee ha ha! So funneeee!

    Uh, yeah, that says it all, doesn’t it? No idea why, no idea prices rise, no idea what price, won’t listen to his own staff, and after he finds out food is up 500% on working people, thinks it’s super-funny. STILL not connecting to reality of what that means. Why should he at $1M per episode? PMCs apparatchiks in action. Finishing interview: “Well I’ve learned something today. But still no idea why Kamala lost! Must be all those black racists.”

    Yeah, uh, could you tone it down a little? “Tone what down?”

    “Emotional President Biden Devastated Over Kamala Loss” –Bbee

    ….And also found the cure for dementia! Wearing a red hat, he was rapping with the reporters in a relaxed and casual way, found, shook all their hands, then did some breakdancing. It’s a miracle! We not only found the cure for dementia, we discovered how to change your height in one day!

    “Democrats Call For Abolishing Popular Vote “ –Bbee

    Aha! You didn’t see that coming! Oh, you did? Oh.

    “Trump Wins 3rd Election In A Row”
    “Nation Excited To Have President Again For First Time In 4 Years”
    “Gender Gap: Woman Only Gets 78% Of The Vote Man Gets
    –BBee

    Why did he win? “Both Candidates Just Glad They Don’t Have To Visit Pennsylvania Anymore “ –BBee

    They write themselves. Like Kamala’s slogan: “Well it ain’t gonna lick itself!”

    “Let’s get the ball rolling against Iran before Trump gets in the WH”

    Good. Then our entire fleet will be sunk, we’ll come home and it will be Biden’s fault. You’re free to not play this game and save those 5,000 sailors. I won’t mind.

    “The law says Trump can’t fire Powell? Well, the U.S. Constitution says The Fed shouldn’t exist!”

    Sure, and then practically speaking, the entire U.S. and US$ would collapse. I’m not against that, just that it’s seriously, galactic business that has to move methodically and carefully. In fact, something like that almost certainly IS planned. But I expect the Fed will still exist, because it’s working FOR America First now. We’ll probably float a Treasury Dollar…

    ….And Pick up exactly where Kennedy left off, making a $2 Silver Treasury certificate.

    Back to the point, I don’t care for the Fed as it causes exactly these problems and corruptions, but I can make a very sound argument that it’s Constitutional. The “Fed” is US Government debt. The Founders had a big argument over it, but had to concede the U.S. would fail the first war if it couldn’t borrow. So U.S. Debt is legal and Bonds, Bills, and DOLLARS are ever-smaller slices of U.S. Government debt. The end. It was created and authorized by Congress. The end. Not my fault if you want to deal in US Debt as money and not silver coins. Clean up your act. …However that would instead make outlawing gold and metals sales taxes illegal and unconstitutional. Lookin’ at you, FDR.

    Galloway: We need Galloway as PM. And what happened to Rees-Moog? Yeah, they’re so Conservative there, they erased his district to get rid of him. Yup, that’s the Tories there. Just like the Republicans here: their job is to HELP the Democrats bring in the Glorious Socialist Revolution. An eternal war against everyone, forever. I mean, how else are you going to get all that boot-stamping?

    “• Trump’s ‘New Conservatism’ Can Bring A Revival of The True American Spirit (RT)

    As in a “Conservatism” that the far LEFT would have agreed on in 1982. Translation, this is Trump’s far LEFT policy and platform. Identical to how he was a Business Democrat in 1985 and hasn’t changed at all. “Conservatism” = “Left” now. But it’s a step.

    “In the aftermath of Trump’s triumph, our expectation is shifting forward, where J. D. Vance is positioned as a fitting successor.”

    Still haven’t heard anything about why you don’t like him except “I don’t like the cut of his jib.” That’s fine to have as an opinion, but doesn’t sway the rest of us without some facts to point at. It’s like “And then a miracle happened.” …”Can you fill in just a little in this part here?”

    “Trump tapped into the psyche of a people weary of perpetual wars and foreign obligations that sapped the nation’s strength and spirit. “

    From Rudyard, let’s set the stage. America is the first revolution and the second one. Let’s say it’s the military class and states 1st, and the bureaucratic elite one, 2nd. We’ve established the Bureaucratic Elite has TOTAL power now, for 100 years. The 1st Layer Americans get their power where? Like Capitalists, they MAKE and DO things: Farming, Mines, Manufacturing, as part of a VOLUNTARY exchange. What does the Second, Bureaucratic Layer do? They take power from the first layer, as they essentially provide nothing useful. Let’s say they’re like the Network, the Internet, “Organizing” things. That DID have economies, back in 1910.

    …But not quite. Because the 1st Layer, the DO-ers would have already revolted. So where does the Permanent Bureaucracy fund at least 1/3, even 2/3rds, of their overhead? FROM FOREIGN WARS, and colonial extraction. The 1st layer, the DO-ers, and the soldiers, they don’t care. Because they don’t NEED anywhere else, any other nations, or any other money. They say this all the time. “I don’t think about you at all” “Let’s bring the boys home” (and totally ignore the world). “We can’t find that on the map”(nor should we).

    Getting the cut now? So they are “America First” and the Permanent Bureaucracy are the “Empire” the Globalists, pan European “Atlanticists”, or at least aligned and agreeing with the Europeans, in the Poison Ivy Leagues on both coasts. So WHY are they doing this and WHY is America First in such a battle with them that they assassinate him twice? AFTER a 30-years War since Clinton first murdered all their Think-Tank in 1994?

    It’s the Global Bureaucracy – leading to a worldwide technocratic totalitarian dystopia they are perfectly open about, aka “Socialism” – or it’s us and the American values. That’s why “We’re just in the way.” They’re not after Trump, they’re after US and Trump is in the way. But they’re not after US, specifically, they are after the GLOBE, and AMERICA is in the way. Which is why they needed to destroy us and nearly have. We’re more sapped out and ruined in Detroit and 500 more American cities than after any war we’ve ever had, even 1865. Hundreds of thousands of more men have died in this war, as Tom Homan says. Over decades longer.

    We’ve got 30,000 deaths per year in ONE avenue alone: Opioids. That’s NOT including other ODs, drugs, just that. We’d have twice that in “Deaths of despair,” easy. 10x that if you include doctors and pharma? We’ve have 5-10x that in food additives, pesticides, etc. So we’re already at a MILLION, easy. It’s easy to make a case for 2-5 million since 2000 GwoT, probably more. “What are Americans doing?” they all ask. Yeah, we’re fighting and dying by the millions resisting this, you fools, what have you been doing lately, on the sunny beaches of the world? Oh you weren’t in Gary, Indiana or Niagara Falls, which is why you get to complain while not lifting a finger except to point at us?

    You can’t kick a couple hundred men out of your country when we’re dying by the millions? Can’t be arsed to swap currencies and stop CocaCola?

    No problem: we’re used to it. It’s what men do. Carry on criticizing while the men work. Later, as they say, everyone will always have been against this. Suddenly they will always have been totally resisting.

    “• The System Worked (Jeffrey Tucker)

    It only worked because everyone came out. And it only worked because everyone was recording and reporting everything. WE did the work, not “them”. WE are America, not the Government. If we abdicate our barest responsibility, yeah, nothing else matters. Nor can some idiotic “White Hat” do that for us. While we sit on the couch. It’s a “Republic if you can keep it.” or it’s we don’t show up and don’t keep it. Those are your only options.

    ““Trump will not be the only defendant to see substantial changes on January 20, 2025. Trump has pledged to pardon those prosecuted over the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot.”

    Well for those that actually did Riot, they certainly got time served. 4X the norm, to say nothing of innocents. Like other stuff, it sounds crazy, but it’s really only HALF of the legal norm and standard. Overton.

    “• DOJ Says Policy Is to Not Prosecute Presidents (ET)

    Yeah we noticed since 1963. (Nixon was pursued by Congress)

    “• Musk Joined Trump-Zelensky Call – Axios (RT)

    Why? I can’t imagine unless Ze wants to buy $300B worth of exploding cars. Maybe if you open a second phone line, whoever is in the room with Musk gets to listen in.

    “European political leaders aren’t serving their country’s best interests […] by the policy that they’re pursuing in terms of global politics,” [Putin] noted.

    Yes, they are also in a fight with the Empire, Atlanticists. However, Europe is roughly a has-been, not really taking the field, and also not dying by millions fighting them. Feel free to start at any time.

    “There are $300 billion of Russian assets. Can you give the money to us?”

    Do it! DO it!!!

    “• US Will Abandon Ukraine – Orban (RT)

    This is the GOOD outcome. If America hadn’t abandoned it, we would have raped it, as Larry Fink already did by taking more land than all Russia combined. “To be America’s enemy is bad, but to be America’s ally is fatal” –Kissinger. Too soon? Not a good enough source? WTF do you THINK we mean, and you still do this and talk to us? Jesus, at some point this is your fault, we can’t stop telling you and showing you what we’ll do if you let us in.

    “Hi. I’m your rapist for the night!” “Oh, very well then, come on in.” (opens door, puts on tea)

    “• The Colonization of Europe By The United States (Vasco)

    Sort of, but that would mean we’re getting something. What are we getting? A $200B loss. Soooo…My guess is this isn’t “Colonization”. If it were, Jeep would be buying Stellantis, not the other way ‘round. US Nuclear would be buying Constellation (?) and all France, not the other way ‘round. See? It’s just me, but the Colony doesn’t usually own the colonizer, yes?

    I’ve been thinking about the comment, “Men TRAP Women in Sex! You are in a position to know about lies, drugs, alcohol, date rape and ovulatory urges” And nothing gels here. Men literally can’t trap women in sex, nor do they want to. Not in the sense that they do them to have children, then presume they’ll trap them in the relationship for more marriage. Obviously and overwhelmingly, women cut off sex for any reason and no reason at all. I thought “Sure whatever it happens sometimes” but a SINGLE video on relationships and this had thirty THOUSAND comments from men IN MARRIAGE saying they hadn’t had sex in years. Why? Meh, she didn’t wanna, and didn’t care. This is what men from the previous generations – like 1940 to 1990 – all joked. ALL of them. And then ALL said “Don’t get married.” And also now, clearly. So CLEARLY having a woman as the mother of your child is more likely the way to insure no sex for the rest of your life, and everybody’s so aware of it, it’s a running gag. For centuries.

    Lies, drugs, alcohol? Yeah, what happens when you two party and something happens? The man then gets a 20 year sentence. Judge says, “I don’t wanna hear it.” Don’t care. Every time. I can’t even imagine a theoretical scenario where anything else COULD happen. Again, and the woman? Unlike the man, she gets “a choice”. So 100% opposite, it’s the WOMAN who is ahead by all counts.

    Rape? My God, yes, that’s um, a crime, a serious one. Which is then REPORTED and adjudicated. And not like years later when they can’t remember where or what year. (this happens regularly) I’m not even arguing which party the police will credit 90% of the time (Mattress Girl, who is now a male advocate) merely THAT we already consider it a crime, ALWAYS are very upset about it, and ALWAYS were. I can’t think of a time or place in history where they said, “Yup, sounds good, you man of great moral upstanding.” The best you can get is toleration along with other war crimes, during a war. Men doing this “on the road” are, um, like Highwaymen? That is to say hardened criminals and murderers so: no doubt? Felons gonna felon, surprise? Like, not approved of? And so when you report and we have a process, is there abortion? Yes. Everywhere, on every law. We’re not talking foreign cultures a thousand years ago here, obviously. That’s nowhere in dispute for geez, I dunno, 50 years. Why bring up Mongols except to divert that this is so? I don’t bring up Pleidians from Alpha Centuri. We’re talking about any time “now” and not being that strict about it. Any time in the last 100 years since 1924 in the Western World is fine. You’re saying men constantly raped women and were applauded all that time? What about all our 40s movies?

    But really, it’s “Ovulatory Urges”, so I’m so glad you brought it up. When I go home to my wife and say, “But honey, she had Ovulatory Urges! I couldn’t help myself, you understand!” What do you think she’s going to say? Uh, yeah, no. And so when men famously have the same thing, what do they say to us? “Keep it in your pants and pay the judge. 20 Year sentence, bye.” Of COURSE they do.

    But I’m totally with you! If a woman can’t ovulate responsibly, then clearly they can’t VOTE responsibly, amirite? At a minimum, we’d have to exclude all ovulating women from election day. Since it’s secret ovulation, then all women altogether, 1910 here we come!

    You can see that maybe you’re not making the Progressive, pro-woman’s rights argument that you may think you are. Because EVERY word here is the appalling infantilization of women as second class citizens and adult children who need special rules because of their mental weakness and infirmity. I mean, IS that what you’re saying? That’s what everyone else in history said, exactly because of this sort of behavior. Because again, I’m fine with that. THEN THEY CAN’T VOTE. If they are the same as men, they get the same rules, and can vote all they want. Which one do you want? You don’t get both.

    Nor am I particularly mad about it. Like most of us, you may have last reviewed and established this assumption and argument 50 years ago in 1975. It seemed reasonable then, just like Phoenix’s argument that “Women should decide” because they’re in the hot seat and will do what’s best for the children involved. …EXCEPT THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT IS NOT HAPPENING. They’re if anything MORE bloodthirsty and more irresponsible than even these rapist men over history were. As I say, I didn’t see that coming either, and leaning into trusting women was also my inclination. Because as JB, and Nobody, I started from the far-left, progressive view and only adjusted when evidence appeared. Sorry, but 35 years of evidence is back on that, with a social/medical study of like 800 million people. It destroys everyone, with women being at the forefront of it. Children, via terrible non-marriages, are the major victim AFTER the 50 million dead, as many as WWII from us “Trusting their motherly and feminine instincts”. It seems they don’t have any, or certainly not a whit more than men have. The difference is they lie about it.

    So sure, I’ll concede women are little children who need special protection and rules, and can’t be trusted with Ovulation Urges, when you admit the same for men.

    Which argument would you like to take up now?

    Total household debt rose by $109 billion to reach $17.80 trillion, according to the latest Quarterly Report on Household Debt and Credit. Mortgage balances were up $77 billion to reach $12.52 trillion, while auto loans increased by $10 billion to reach $1.63 trillion and credit card balances increased by $27 billion to reach $1.14 trillion. The volume of mortgage originations remained low, primarily due to subdued refinancing activity. Homeowners continued to increase balances on home equity lines of credit (HELOC) as an alternative way to extract home equity; HELOC limits rose by $3 billion, marking the ninth consecutive quarterly increase.  Aggregate delinquency rates remained unchanged from the previous quarter, with 3.2 percent of outstanding debt in some stage of delinquency.” FED of NY Q2-24

    “‘A fatal miscalculation’: masculinity researcher Richard Reeves on why Democrats lost young men” – The Guardian

    Because they openly said men were a cancer on the planet and hated them all for years, openly and proudly, then enacting non-stop aggressive policies to back it up? What got me was that ANY men voted for them, young, old, black, white, Left, Right. Anyone at all. “Vote for us and you’ll be killed” is their call.

    Okay, what does “The Guardian” say, even knowing every word would be a lie or else they’ll burst into flames.

    “In the months leading up to election day, pollsters were fixated on one demographic: young men.”

    Huh? What? Only if you rewrite history into #Oppositeland. I never heard anyone care, think about, or reference young men in generations except to assault, harass, ridicule, and shame them.

    “Democrats’ inability to talk directly to men about their policy platform. He pointed to poorer educational outcomes with fewer men graduating from college and worsening standardized test scores. He also spoke about the worsening mental health, loneliness and suicide crises among this group and the lack of willingness by Democrats to address them directly.”

    “Directly”? What’s Indirectly? We’re so low and untouchable non-entities that they can only talk to the untouchables using the SECOND lowest caste: nagging White Women.

    “When we spoke a few months ago, you made a case for ways in which the Democrats could speak to men and women. It seems like the Democrats went in the opposite direction – they really presented themselves as the party of women.
    Correct. And not only do I think that was a gamble that didn’t pay off…”

    Uhhh…

    “if you’re ever going to have a ticket that could speak to men, for the love of God, it was this one…Even my progressive feminist friends were watching the DNC and saying: “Is there going to be anything for men?”

    Boy you have different friends than I have! All my Progressive friends were “Sadly some men remain alive” and “Men refuse to be FULLY enslaved to female desires, but we’re working hard to change that.” Men, being men, look at them passively doing this and say “Huh.” Is that so? Well, I’ll have to adjust my strategy then. No words. Why bother?

    ““There are so many progressive young women who are worried about the mental health of their boyfriend or brother. There are so many progressive women who wanted a party that would support their reproductive rights and do a better job of educating their son.”

    Speechless. So EVEN in an article about men, the real issue and focus is WOMEN’S issues. Of killing all their male children. So REALLY Progressive Women want Progressive Women things, and also Educate their sons about giving women MORE Progressive women things. Not reading this wrong? When we have an article about badgers, we actually talk about the needs of Giraffes? Because that’s relevant?

    “maybe the reason you’re not voting for us is because you’re secretly a little bit sexist?” Trying to either shame or guilt trip or scare men into voting Democrat was spectacularly unsuccessful.”

    Ya think? GSR plan, “Guilt, Shame, Ridicule”. Boy who doesn’t love that as an argument? Men especially.

    “They benched themselves from the argument about men, because their zero-sum frame meant that they couldn’t address issues of boys and men and still be taken seriously as a party for women.”

    Yes, but that pre-supposes as fact that they only give to women. It can only be zero-sum if they take from men, give to women, AND ALL THE WOMEN KNOW IT. Know that every benefit comes exclusively at the expense of men. Otherwise, the argument doesn’t work: DNC would just say “We’re helping men as we help all Americans” and have zero political liability. …Like everyone always did for 250 years til now. But they can’t.

    Right? Got that? This author JUST SAID that was true, the DNC made it true, and all women THINK it’s true. That’s the only interpretation where the argument works. That’s what that sentence means.

    “On the other side, the Republican zero-sum framing was: you are struggling and we know who’s to blame for that. We have someone to point to: women and Democrats.” Gee: why? Whyever would that argument have any traction at all, ye-author-of-the-previous-sentence? You JUST said it was true AND everyone knows it. Now it’s cray cray to say it’s true and everyone knows it. Why? How? A = A, A ≠ A. At the Same Bat-Time, at same Bat station.

    “The reason that was a politically successful sentiment was because those men’s problems are real, and for a long time they’d been neglected, so they actually did turn into grievances,”

    Why? Because both this expert and this journalist SAY they are true? They ARE neglected, = consensus view? They ARE for so many decades it can be a “grievance”? So openly that even “The Guardian” can say so without blinking?

    “What men heard from the right was: you’ve got problems, we don’t have solutions. What they heard from the left is: you don’t have problems, you are the problem.

    Both hearty-har, (basis that “Achkutally, we all know every person is a Democrat left of Mao”) but also look at that sentence. They are openly confirming the core DNC view is “Men are the problem.” Everybody knows it, even the UK Guardian. And they openly admit it.

    “The Republicans also seemed to successfully detoxify Trump among young men.”

    Did they? Again, meta-reality is that Trump was ever toxic to anyone is the first place. WAS he? Or did you make that up and was only true for a 5% echo chamber of drooling morons? (aka “Reporters”)

    I’m overselling this of course, right? “On [The Joe Rogan Experience], Trump went on these weird rants”

    Um. Did anybody hear that? Anyone? On the planet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flnZzkFV3w8

    “[The journalist and podcaster] Ezra Klein talks about Trump’s disinhibition and that being both his strength and his weakness. I think that for quite a few men, just the injection of a bit of humor, a bit of irony, a reduction in some of the earnestness, a lowering of the stakes, it all helped humanize him.”

    What’s he saying here? NOT LYING is his strength. Allowing jokes and not being a lemon-sucking church lady? Not being a religious zealot and emotional jihadi? Not begin a radical extremist? Yes, that is literally the translation of all those comma clauses. Therefore he seemed more “Human” and “Normal”. Uh, yeah, no shit. We all prefer normal people to unhinged freaks? Yeah, given a choice, give the Button to a guy who isn’t extreme and emotionally unhinged.

    “Why didn’t Harris go on Rogan? Why would she not do that? I mean, literally, the biggest platform in the world. She would have come across as real and human. It’s not that that it would have changed the outcome of the election, but it’s symptomatic of the Democratic attitude.

    Note they stop the article here. Why? No answer. They don’t use their “HarrisTelepathy.” Why? They shamelessly use it for everyone else. So if this lost her the election, then why a sudden fit of no curiosity? What is this “Democratic Attitude” which you gloss over and don’t define? Is it because we all so fully know what that “Attitude” is? ‘Cause I don’t. Tell me. Extreme arrogance compounded with ignorance? Journalists are supposed to TELL and inform you, don’t hint, suggest, imply rumors and leave me hanging.

    Is he saying she wouldn’t go on because Joe Rogan is a male? Don’t make me make it up or I will. She couldn’t bear to be in the same room as an XY, same as she wouldn’t reason with a pig or a goose. They are beneath. So TELL ME, don’t make it up.

    “Trump now needs to deliver for men. The question is: OK, is the CDC now going to actually take male suicide rates seriously and recognize the gender gap in suicide?”

    Oh there’s a fact. First one in the article. And one no one has talked about for 30 years. If anyone was mad about it, they’d have at least said so, right? So therefore they LIKE it; There’s no other conclusion. Is it “Americans”? Well yes, that’s true, however, you get a 20% bump in saying GIRLS shouldn’t kill themselves. Nonesuch for men. Somehow all children dying – which itself barely gets coverage because we’d have to shut off cell phones – turns into “Well, sure, but let’s only save the female ones”. No joke. Yeah, we noticed.

    “A super wonky one for you is, what’s going to happen to the gender policy council in a White House? Now, I may be one of the very few people asking that question today, but I’ve criticized the gender policy council for being one one-sided.”

    What? We have a “Gender policy council” A paperclip council in charge of 2nd paperclips? And as this expert and “The Guardian” say, that is self-evident it is entirely one-sided. Why? I didn’t automatically assume that: they did.

    “One big question is whether Trump will actually work seriously on apprenticeships, …Getting an apprenticeship bill through, redirecting some of the money that currently goes to elite higher education into apprenticeships, trade schools, technical schools – all of that would be fantastic for boys and men.”

    Because men are all neanderthal idiots, suited only for dumb muscle and untouchable dirty jobs while women are permanent managers and order-givers to them. Know your place.

    “What do the Democrats need to learn from this?
    The danger is that they just say all these men became sexist, that they were lured by misogyny. The danger is Democrats believe they just need to double down on attacks on patriarchy and toxic masculinity. That would be disastrous.”

    Well! We’ve certainly solved that one!

    “Instead of going on and on about cancelling student debt, (for the rich and women) which is not a popular policy among men, they should talk more about trade schools and manufacturing jobs.” which is the only thing men are suited for.

    “I hope that they’ll conclude that they need to win men back by explicitly pitching them, rather than trying to recruit them as allies to the cause of women”

    Jeez, um, does anyone else comprehend the level of raw insanity in that statement? Like “Maybe next time we’ll give black plantation slaves better conditions rather than arguing, they should think and vote because their masters need them.” I don’t know what other metaphor to use, because it’s so foaming insane. “Here, vote for Bush because think of the children in Iraq who need him.” No. OBVIOUSLY people vote their OWN interests and ONLY their own interests. That’s what voting IS.

    “I presume the conclusion [the Democrats] also going to reach is that they can’t run a female candidate for a really long time?”

    What. The. ???? That’s THESE guys saying that. A supposedly Gender expert, MALE gender expert, and a left-of-Mao UK reporter? NO REPUBLICAN SAYS THAT. They’ll run Tulsi in a heartbeat and nearly did. MTG can run, no one would comment at all. Like Colin Powell for President, years ago. You ONLY get these comments from Progressives and Leftists.

    “There’s a reason the General Social Survey stopped asking the question about a female candidate in 2010: because it hit 96% support, and it’s even higher among young men. I suppose it’s possible that those men are secretly sexist or racist and won’t tell pollsters that”

    Their OWN data says that’s totally not true, but THEY know, secretly, you actually are. I am God, and I can see into your heart and tell you who you Ackshully are.

    Nice debt numbers, i wonder if we broke down the holders by gender who would have more debt? Met a lovely women last night, two friends introduced me. Divorced, two young girls, an optometrist (respectful line of work) and has about 400k in debt! Even being an optometrist, trying to raise two young girls, gonna be a nightmare trying to get out from under that. I have no debt, make it a point to be that way. Do i want to take on someone like that?

    The U.S. electorate has “rendered their verdict on President Trump and decisively chosen him to lead the country for the next four years.”
    “They did that with full knowledge of the claims against him by prosecutors around the country, and I think Attorney General Garland and the state prosecutors should respect the people’s decision and dismiss the cases against President Trump now,” Barr said.

    In public events and on social media, Trump often has said that the various criminal cases brought against him were attempts to interfere in the 2024 election.

    The time for incessant lying, hoaxing, and performative hysteria is over.
    On Thursday, in a three-minute speech, the President-elect set out a clear list of measures to reconstruct a national consensus based on reality.
    It includes firing a lot of people in the agencies, dis-embedding all the inspector-generals from the departments they oversee, establishing a “truth and reconciliation commission” to declassify and publish documents “related to alleged deep state activities, including spying, censorship, and corruption,” and finding out who exactly at the CIA / FBI / DHS / and other places has been leaking fables and falsehoods to the news media.
    In other words, clear away a shit-ton of untruth that burdens the consciousness of country.

    “Trump has worked to cultivate a populist image, in the past running on a pledge to “drain the swamp” and promising to end the revolving door and tax Wall Street. Before he left office in 2021, he reversed his own executive order that would have barred his appointees from any lobbying related to their agencies for five years.”

    I have never in my life shot a gun. But I support the 2nd amendment and believe that the populace should have access to guns, even if through accidents and crimes of passion and wackos some people die.

    I have never sought out an abortion. I have only had “unprotected sex” when I was open to welcoming a child. I do not want to ever be put in the position of a pregnancy that is unwanted — because I loathe abortion. But I believe that abortion is the woman’s choice, and that the government should not insert itself into that decision. I believe this even though I know that a small percentage of the population will have abortions for reasons other than rape or incest or danger to mother’s life, and even though I know that there will be a small number of women who will use abortion as birth control. I view the morality of abortion to be between the woman and god.

    It is tyranny to take choices from people because you are afraid that they may use them in ways that you don’t approve. It removes their sovereignty.

    “I know that there will be a small number of women who will use abortion as birth control.”

    How do you know for a fact its a small number? I think what myself and others are arguing, isn’t that: Women bad! It is that society has removed any and all restraints from one gender while bemoaning and blaming the other non stop. Poor choices are rewarded or negated by taking from another person. How can you agree with that?
