    Here’s a big one, another monumental step toward Peace and Tranquility. Come to think of it. Whatever happened to Tranquility? Even The Verbose One rarely mentions Tranquility anymore.

    https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-admin-axes-400-million-grants-columbia-university-over-antisemitism-inaction

    (((They))) got this Whole Task Force. My god!

      Members of the US Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism, including the Departments of Justice, Health and Human Services, Education, and the US General Services Administration,

    No DOGE for you ((plural form of you)) Task Force…transparently. Jeaus!
    Where there’s a will there is always away or is it a way???

    There’s no mention of DOGE, Musk or Big Balls yet. Look out Columbia. Fuck ’em. They wait-listed my kid Go. To. Hell. No matter who takes you there, Semites or antisemites.

    No doubt, Linda, no doubt.

    Linda:

      Since October 7, Jewish students have faced relentless violence, intimidation, and anti-Semitic harassment on their campuses – only to be ignored by those who are supposed to protect them,” stated Secretary of Education Linda McMahon.

    Here it’s written often that Israel is unfairly conflated with Jewish and Jewish unfairly conflated with Israel. Yet, SecEdu Linda McMahon exercises her Zionist bonafides, right, without mentioning Zionism’s role in her, his, and their decision to have an October 7th or protest thereof.

    Onward…”chaos” and its twin sibling “anarchy” ride with The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

       The review follows reports of “chaos” and “anti-Semitic harassment” on campus since Hamas’ attack on Israel in October 2023.

    While The Russia special operation in The Ukraine continues against The Ukraine, where no mention is ever made of Anti-Christian Bigotry’s role in provoking 61.8% of Russia’s population or Orthodox Christian white guys to kill several hundred thousand of 74.4% of The Ukraine’s population of Christian white guys.
    How do dey do dat time and again?

    That’s an awkward sentence.
    Dying is awkward too…..

    ….but Linda McMahon is on it and Big Balls can’t be too far behind.
    DOGE, uber alles!
    There’s probably no anti-Christian bigotry there or else we’d read about it here and in Linda’s press releases, daily

    • ‘Party of Insanity and Hate’: US Democrats Show Their True Colors (Bridge)

    Democrats: Peace is a four-letter word. Hate & Anger is their main motivator.
    “When you are hating someone, you lose all perspective, you lose all feeling, you’re consumed.”
    obsessive hatred of Trump
    The Democratic Party has lost its way, it no longer represents the people, its all about secrets and lies.

    DOGE is battling a Tower of Babel, ancient perversity, Sodom and Gomorrah.

    Under the corrupt anti-American Biden regime our country was overrun by millions of invaders while taxpayers were forced to spend trillions of dollars on “national defense” that was used to protect the borders of Ukraine and to expand the borders of Israel.

    It boggles the mind that the government could even manage to cream-off such a fortune out of our nation’s alleged aggregate productivity.
    It was, in reality, money conjured out of thin air: debt.

    … what I want to explain in my point of view is not second-hand.
    It’s not ideology.
    It’s what I’ve seen with my own eyes and experienced during this period.
    I want to share with you my understanding of the events that have befallen Europe in many contexts and I’ll include not only the Ukraine crisis, but also Serbia 1999, the wars in the Middle East, including Iraq, Syria, the wars in Africa, including Sudan, Somalia, Libya. These are to a very significant extent the result of deeply misguided U.S. policies.
    What I will say may well surprise you, but I speak from experience and knowledge of these events.
    These are wars that the United States has led and caused.
    And this has been true for more than 30 years now.
    The United States came to the view, especially during 1990-91, and then with the end of the Soviet Union, that the U.S. now runs the world, and that the U.S. does not have to heed anybody’s views, red-lines, concerns, security viewpoints, international obligations, or any U.N. framework.
    I’m sorry to put it so plainly, but I do want you to understand.

    Suddenly, the MSM and Ukraine are reporting that Russia is “Bombing the Hell out of Ukraine”
    Trying to say,” It’s all the fault of Trump for not helping.”

    Trump. Pause:

    So is that a ceasefire? Sort of. It’s a good-faith effort on our part even if Ukr, EU are going around it.

    So much on this last week, they tried 50 things, but one was (and related to the non-existent ‘resources’ where we learned the $500B value was invented by Zelensky) but the whole thrust, the end state, was a ceasefire, agreement, where if Russia does ANYTHING, EVER, then the U.S. attacks them and they automatically go into NATO.

    Sirs, we are trying to have a DEAL here. You don’t get a deal by advancing your plan and insulting their intelligence. You have to GIVE something. That did not happen of course, because it’s FECKING RETARDED. And bloodthirsty, which Europe is demonstrating now. Ok, they look serious, how long before “reality” catches up with them making bombs and bullets? As usual they’re making a lot of 5-star catered committee meetings, who’s going to tell them they have no chemical precursor industry?

    The plan was always to NUKE them. Go straight to nukes. First strike. 0-to-Genocide in one. That’s why they don’t have anything.

    “Trump is overriding the entire establishment structure right now to bring peace in Ukraine. Russia was aiming for a complete surrender but is now willing to negotiate. But the opposition are hurdles are numerous as the attacks on Trump will keep being”

    From all the hysterical clickbait videos yesterday, “End of the World!!!” Peace Breaks out. “Terrifying Scramble” as Peace Breaks Out. Must Attack Trump!!! …To Stop Peace Breaking out.

    Elon, explaining what literally everybody knows. Like he’s a smart guy or something. They’re corrupt? Like Maine, make $50M first year? Who knew?

    “No, it’s just a bunch of friends you f**king idiots. We do each others podcasts. They’re trying to figure this out.”

    Genius! And Rogan IS on the Left. They don’t have “Friends” on the left? They need this thing where they don’t ruthlessly and instantly backstab each other.

    “On the other side of the pond, Jeffrey Sachs laments that Europe has no voice of its own, the way it did in the early 1990’s. But it does have that voice: it belongs to Ursula von der Leyen and Kaja Kallas. It’s very much pro-war and anti-Trump and anti-Russia. It’s a voice for which peace is a four-letter word. It’s very eerily similar to that of the US dems.”

    It’s inexplicable, isn’t it? It’s the “Orientation” I call it. It’s either Up, to God, or …elsewhere, but basically that means Man, they are “humanists.” This is associated with say, the Masons and the Enlightenment, on the good side. …But if you have only Man as your reference point, then morality is pinned to nothing. This decays rapidly but at least within a generation. The aspirations of a man-based world are so high and so genuine (while some, the…let’s call them “Satanists” who DO believe in God but reverse it know all along) and logically, there are no flaws with the system, so they keep doing it. Socialism is a man-based, “Science”-based system for example. On Paper there’s no reason it shouldn’t work and work better. That’s just too compelling to intellectuals, the kind of people who are active, persuasive, and like to get things done. So what they get done is killing everyone. …And this tiny cadre that rides at the top knows it.

    Is your orientation Up? Or Down? That is, is it SELF focused, Ego? Or are you small and humble, grasping how small your limits are? It doesn’t have to be God. It can be Nature. It can be the Math of Complex systems. But you have to admit you’re an idiot and Egos can’t do that.

    “• Every Vote for a Democrat Is an Attack on America (Paul Craig Roberts)

    If only that weren’t true, and it hasn’t always been so. It’s only at the end-state here that it becomes both true and apparent.

    NY Post reports that Democrat John Podesta handed out $375 billion in this way”

    Again, that’s $1,000 per American on this ONE thing. This ONE theft. You think that could propagandize a few people to go insane with that? What’s so amazing is how well we resisted it. So if this is only ONE, how many others? Was it $10,000 per person thrown at us? And for 10, 20, 60 years? Uh, yes? Warren Commission, Church Committee?

    “And still American citizens vote for Democrats.” Do they though? Remember us counting how many off-the-cuff votes are probably illegal, like 20 Million, pretty easily proven?

    “ How can a population this stupid be made great again?” Kind of a long question. I see this all the time “This will never happen, if there is a hollowing out, if there is a “Thucydides Trap”, that’s it, it’s over!” No, things run in cycles. All these nations came back. So you CAN, if you want, stop. Obviously people recover. We’ve had geez like 5 Great Depressions, many worse than the 30s?

    We’ve had Utopian Religious manias several times. In the 1770s, 1840s, 1880s, 1960s, all is shows is that the author doesn’t know any history. Can they recover? Sure. But those times didn’t demonstrate any magic bullets about reforming them. Those Hippie Cults broke up and became what, and how? Well, like this:

    “Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, one by one.” 1841 book, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds

    And all this time…the River flowed, from the Romans, to the Kings, to us.

    (Speaking of Copeland, I saw him on a drumming channel and he said, uncharacteristically, that he just does something different each time. He has a hard time remembering what was done on the recording at all. Interesting approach, but I guess someone would be in that category)

    In the UK there is the scandal of both Labour and Conservative governments refusing for 30 years to stop the gang rape of white British children by immigrant invaders.”

    Since England, being consumed with the DOWN Orientation, is Godless, Nihilistic, and therefore deathly suicidal, is STILL refusing to stop the gang rapes. They are posting WHITE mug shots to point out that “Ackshullly,” it is all WHITE guys doing this. Falsely, if you hadn’t guessed. They were indeed criminals and not AI so that’s a pleasant change, but like one raped a horse and that’s not the sort of thing we’re talking about here. Some passed photos and that’s not the sort of thing we’re talking about here. We’re talking about RAPE. GANGS. RACIALLY. motivated. No equivalence at all, and England is going to go down with the ship defending it.

    …And I used to think this “Self-hating X” was a myth.

    “In Sweden, Norway, Germany women are not safe from rapists, “

    Not safe from Rapists? They’re not safe from BOMBS.

    ““When you are hating someone, you lose all perspective, you lose all feeling, you’re consumed.”

    It’s your overall life orientation.

    ““What happened [to the Democratic Party]?” O’Reilly asked. “What happened was Trump hatred,” Just, Hatred. Remember, IT’S NOT TRUMP. They hate US. He’s just in the way. That’s what being that sort of religious fundamentalist and extremist MEANS. Dried up, joyless, loveless, nagging scolding, lemon-sucking church ladies. Tammy Fae Baker looks like a free-love flower child compared to them. You’re outlawing JOKES?

    YOU WENT FURTHER THAN CROMWELL for God’s sake.

    Democratic Reboot: They’re still talking about it, but you see the Party of Old White men again in their DNC head voting, and also put up Hogg as their stirring young blood. And that was WITH them calculating everybody’s race to two digits of representation. The Base, who I’m listening to now, ALSO has no idea, as they are 50% Mao Communists, who as first act of power will burn it all down. Good sales! I’m sure America will love that! If you get in, you’ll kill us? Shut up and take my money! The others are 1) There’s nothing wrong, you just need to vote right and DO WHAT YOU’RE TOLD. 2) We hate everyone, and Trump too 3) We need a change, but I don’t know what and 4) Twenty flavors of “how do we do something practical on the ground” which are all dislocated from each other.

    …That’s not covering their unending ethnic hatred for EVERYONE, Muslims in MI, or white people, or Jews, Cubans, African immigrants, black boys with cancer or whatever. ANY protest or action that has a SINGLE one of these dips present flies right off the rails, so they can’t even March Uselessly™ anymore. I got nothing. I think I said that six months ago, with a Pool video. There’s like literally no way to glue these pieces together. I can’t scrap two and pile the rest, can’t 50-50, can’t start with and exciting, viable core, nothing. It’s going to have to evolve out of itself over time. Essentially what O’Rielly, Carville are saying.

    “When the Soviet Union ended in 1991, the view became even more exaggerated. And I can name chapter and verse, but the view was we [the U.S.] run the show. [Dick] Cheney, [Paul] Wolfowitz, and many other names that you will have come to know literally believed this is now a U.S. world, and we will do as we want.”

    This has a different character when you realize that Reagan ENDED the Cold War, by not Winning it. That was the White Hat’s plan at that frightening time, to get the toys away from a Dulles-like CIA who was CONSTANTLY feeding fake intel to Presidents to make them push the Button. And we know of like 3 near-launch situations, including that sub off Hawaii that sunk on launch. This was right after they all knew the CIA took out Nixon right after taking out St. John. Reagan and the White Hats expended everything to END this escalating standoff, including torching the budget. By changing the rules and NOT winning it, which made eternal enemies of Cheney, Rummy, and the “Crazies in the Basement” Papa Bush and the Neocons. …Problem being, they’re not stupid and are going to figure it out, and no one lives forever…especially when they live in the same house as HW. What are the odds of “Sudden onset dementia” drugs? AFTER another assassination. But HW was the CIA head, I shouldn’t be suspicious like that. What have they ever done? I mean, what did he do after except say NWO on camera 100 times?

    Anyway, I’m sure Russia realized they were sort of cornered, and COULD probably continue, chose not to and re-aligned internally to end the Soviet plan, which wasn’t working out. Who knew? Maybe someday real Socialism will be tried. So seeing the White Hats on our side, they did what they did, to return to being a NORMAL European country, pick themselves up, and so on. NOPE. The Neocons made a desperate rush out of BOTH parties – where they were pretty strong in either – and did what we now know. Quite probably the USSR would have done something else if they had known, but too late. And so seeing that, they then wrested power away from THEIR people, and THEIR White Hats consolidated in secret (probably mostly ex KGB) people inside. And picked Putin, who the West enthusiastically approved of.

    But getting control of the ship – one, broken ship — is not like taking on the now-united Anglo HyperPower. But, being Russian, they shrugged, went to work, and kicked our -sses with one broken ship. So here we are today, with Cheney going down on the dumbest, most pointless acts ever (J6/Kamala), and Russia being able to level all Europe while drinking tea.

    Sachs brings in Israel? It’s not “Israel”. They’re the Khazars. This is their homeland. This is their old score to settle. If you think they’re Jews, they’re Semites, you won’t understand anything at all. And that’s relevant right now as they’re literally saying they want to set up a literal Israel II in Ukraine. …Using racist, Jew-hating Azovs, you fools? Yes, using that. That is to say, they’re not Jews. Their people never met Moses. They never lived in the Middle East for a single hour until 1948. They are entirely unrelated to the Roman Jews.

    “Trump is angry that they [Europe] appear to be pushing for war..”

    I don’t think “Angry”? “Angry” happens when you’re surprised? Nothing could be more predictable. They like the “Furious” “unhinged” “Bizarre” as adjectives when Trump orders a taco. He’s not angry, he’s probably as bored to tears as I am.

    • Trump Mulls Pulling US Troops Out Of Germany – Telegraph (RT)

    More than mulling, we made actions on the ports there to pull out of Poland too. This is where “We’re Invading CANADA and Greenland Gaahaaaaah!!!!!!” …while moving Not. One. Man. No. We are NOT doing that, because WHEN you do that, troops move. You fecking infantile blubbering blobs. In Germany? He IS moving men, ships, positions… That doesn’t mean it’s over, but it’s the very first step of it being “Reality”.

    We need Greenland (‘s permission) to put our missiles on that are right now in Germany. That’s the other part where we ACTED.

    “• US Business Wants Easing Of Russia Sanctions (RT)

    Show of good faith, like shutting off our satellite data. Russia may have to give something first though.

    “• EU ‘Can’t Afford’ To Support Ukraine – Orban (RT)

    There’s no such thing as “Money”. They “can” print the “money” and tank the currency. Because: Europe, even THAT is too complicated as the ECB isn’t like the Fed and needs buy-in from member states, I forget the details right now. But in theory if Europe – or what seems now to be ONLY Northern Europe – no Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal – wants to, they can TRY to borrow it all by printing with the ECB buying all the bonds these nations issue.

    They could get to €8,800B Euros. None of that will matter a tiny, tiny bit, as they have no steel, no rubber, no chemicals, no neon, no titanium, etc…

    Okay suppose they BUY all that stuff from us and we let them. We’re on a deal with Russia and that would be bad blood, but suppose we sold them everything up to 1995, sadly outdated and useless. What would Europe BUY it with? If they go “war footing” then there are no more domestic retail goods to trade to us with. You want to buy a VW and Audi when Germany may not exist and no parts for 10 years? They need the retail goods as trade to get the other stuff, but if those factories are lit, there are no Factory Part II to build the military goods. Even if they HAD it, the Euro would spiral ever-down, and U.S. would then buy Europe’s Bud and Europe’s Harley and Europe’s Disney at fire-sale unless they totally won against Russia. …Which they can’t, for eleven more reasons I can’t get to.

    Like Ukraine, Europe really needs to know, Hey, we can’t win this. We’ll have to go underground. See you on the flip side, 30-40 years from now. Nope. They ‘can’t” (they would and will collapse, right now) but they also won’t, because they are psychotic retards devoid of reality, locked in an air-tight fart tower.

    I mean, Orban, etc is telling them the very MILDEST stuff. All Britain wants is NOT TO BE RAPED. And no, they are the enemy, imprisoned on sight. They’re being arrested for THINKING THOUGHTS, in their home, too close to an live abortion.

    “The war in Eastern Europe Is a stupid war that only benefits those who aren’t willing to fight”

    No, they need an excuse to DEFAULT. That’s the only thing that matters. Soros has already told us, they will reissue “Perpetual” bonds, that is, bonds that never pay. Honest! They only pay interest, never principle. Armstrong points out, what’s the difference? Government never pay, never intend to, and always default anyway. This is just being honest about the theft.

    “US President Donald Trump has said all countries should abandon nuclear weapons instead of engaging in an arms race.”

    I mean, Obviously what every Hitler says. And cutting army 50%. …Those nukes almost certainly don’t work anyway, so I don’t care. Oreshnik makes them obsolete, so So What?

    “• Poland Should Have Its Own Nukes – PM Tusk (RT)

    Tusk has lost his mind or actually just admitting that he lost it in childhood. He said

    “Europe will have no trouble defeating Russia in EVERY capacity.”

    Oh, so not just winning but SUPER-Winning? Breathtaking.

    Recission = Recession. Well, a big problem. GDP is de-facto all government spending. That’s it right now. But LOWER GDP could lead to GREATER Citizen happiness. Like, GDP was half in 1980, you think people were more satisfied then, letting their kids out to play on bikes like in “Stranger Things”? And it wasn’t all that great then.

    But the NUMBERS, — you optimize what you measure – is the GDP # and the Stock Market. Lose $1 Trillion you have to think those go down, and in a debt-trap that’s self-enforcing. That’s why Europe has to collapse for us so we can cannibalize them with global money flows.

    HOWEVER: We’re talking about money all WASTED. The other money is used to STOP all Industry. Other money is used AGAINST us. The last category is money we never see, is spent all overseas, probably a Trillion. That could vanish and NOT hit us. So what happens there? This is stupidly, like supercomputer complicated, but suppose you were God and had, I dunno, Grok3 and could measure this. You’re SAVING so much money that you then offset the GDP loss with $5,000 checks. So $5k lost domestically, $5k lost overseas, and $5k lost by crushing industry. You can pay $5k with no income tax and still come out $5k ahead – with jobs – because the $5k overseas zeroes out.

    Getting some kind of drift here? We don’t have, not invented the language to describe this yet. Recission is one means. But it needs to be offset completely, and we don’t have time for a test run. Argentina was our test run, and it’s working, but that’s not much to go on.

    “Russia has said it won’t accept the presence of NATO troops on Ukrainian soil, rejecting a proposal by European countries to put together a “coalition of the willing”

    No Russia is not having a ceasefire so Kiev can rearm. And Europe is so broke they had to recycle the PR “Coalition of the willing” from Gulf I because “Certain Death Suicide Tripwire Force” was kind of too on-point.

    “..Macron claimed on Wednesday that Russia poses a direct threat to France and the entire EU. He echoed von der Leyen’s calls for a significant increase in defense spending..”

    Let me repeat this: the end state for the NATO plan — the EU’s Army – was to NUKE Russia. …But it was supposed to be Russia’s / United States’ fault. Poor wee damsel Europe never dun no wrong. That’s why what are the key words for Europe now? Nukes. Forward deploy French Nukes (which ALSO probably don’t work) into 5 minutes from the border. They were supposed to be AMERICAN nukes, so now they’re scrambling.

    What happens then? Russia NUKES somebody, Kiev. Remember all those power plant false flags, etc? Then Europe goes, “Alas! This is beyond the pale! Why I say sir, why, whyever must ye do this to us yon evil communist empire?” (The Left is LITERALLY still calling Russia “communist” for the love of God make it stop) Then NATO activated, force majeure on bonds, world war, 3B dead, reset.

    #WINNNNNNING!!!!!!

    Deagel level activated. Or just imagine if their bioweapon had worked. At all. That many fewer in Europe, with that less commodity demand, Chinese goods demand. Oops. That’s how bad you suck and how much you glue-sniffers can’t even KILL people competently. Instead, no nukes: Oreshnik.

    Anyway: American Army = NATO = Free EU Army. Now all Europe has to raise their OWN army with their OWN nukes.

    Keep meaning to bring it up, but remember that John Wick 4 movie? We haven’t played out the Chinese side of that yet, but wasn’t that really something? That EuroTrash Black Nobility totally got screwed because he didn’t want to take the honorable measure of fighting his own battles, then that totally backfired on him and he died. Funny, what?

    “• New EU Carbon Market Set to Hit Households and Small Businesses (Kennedy)

    WHO does this hit? The Gilet Jeunes. The RURAL, farmers, poor. But they ain’t mad or nothin’, in France, Holland, UK.

    “Do statins really work ? Who benefits? Who has the power to cover up the side effects ?”

    So far as I can tell, NO. And they have a constellation of side effects so the people don’t realize they’re all sick and dying because of the Statins. WHO can cover that up? It’s not covered up, it’s all out there, officially a decade solidly known, 20 years suspected. They just keep prescribing anyway.

    WiFi: He may be more careful, it’s quite possible SOME wavelengths and types do and some don’t.

    Math, I think this is the interview where he talks about math, if not it’s useful anyway, 2/2 Willie

    Problem, math – and he may say that here – the mid math boy can crush the top math girl. For whatever reason, and I’m sure we all grew up with seeing that. It’s probably related to men seeing patterns that aren’t there, in certain paranoias or conspiracy theories: you can see patterns, but you have to be able to test if they’re projected, not real. I’ve met MilIntel guys who were spooky at this. Like, take the letters of their—electric bill or something, turn them into a magic square, adds up to “Kilroy” or “MKULT” or something that has to be totally irrelevant, coincidental and not there. But that same bent of mind seems to be math as well. So you would have Girl Valedictorians struggling to 4.0 math, but boy valedictorians struggle to 4.0 English. Which is exactly what you see.

    On that, so we need ONLY girls in STEM. …I was just reading the stats, it was like, statistically men are 1/10th of the hirings for their demographic size. So it’s 90% weighted against white men right now. Statistical proof, official numbers. ….But not in Colorado of course, I’m sure no one has seen anti-hiring like that anywhere here. This is like how any boy’s Jr Varsity can beat the woman Olympic soccer team. Way, WAAAAAY worse than anyone expected. So IF you move women into STEM, you have instant incompetency. Because you’re going to get all the competent ones in the first half of the first draft pick. Everyone after that is dismal and you’ve got 80% to go before you’ll hire a man. …So say the stats anyway.

    This is part of the woman pilots problem. Let’s just dismiss all past evidence, that they also have slower reactions, poor spatial relations etc, fine. There are like 10x more male pilots for all sorts of reasons, but basically ex-military. So you’re going to run out of top woman pilots before the first hour of the first day. That’s just math. If you have ANY amount of woman pilots represented, then you almost certainly have an incompetent one who should be replaced by a man with slightly more merit. …Not that there aren’t great female pilots, that’s not the issue; the issue is they’re RARE. So anyway, the usual retards that we can aggregate an ethnic group, and then back-conclude to any individuals, which is Logic 101. Something women also fail, statistically.

    Of course, I just added the liability men have for having a divided, math-mind. I could add dyslexia too. No one cares. Women have to be The MOSTEST BETTER EVAH, at EVERYTHING, ALWAYS, you misogynistic bigot. Making fun of or pointing out men’s failings is just average, below average, natural, universal. You need to hate men MOAR than that, sir. You need to just shout it out, randomly, throughout the day, unprompted.

    Trump now says he is close to imposing more sanctions on Russia instead

    He, I guess, realized that he can’t talk (down) to Putin. So, despite his boast, he “doesn’t know how to talk to him”.
    It is still early in Trumps presidency, so we should judge each policy after being fully implemented, so let’s not go over our heads with “so much winning”.

    Kunstler – “Jacobins of Paris, 1794… Robespierre… the insane antics of the Woke-Jacobin revolution.”

    The French Revolution initially rejected religion, preferring what was called the Cult of Reason, which had “scandalous scenes” and “wild masquerades” attributed to its practice.

    However, Robespierre rejected atheism, and was instrumental in establishing the Worship of the Supreme Being as the state religion of France in 1794.

    The French People recognize the existence of the Supreme Being and the Immortality of the Soul.

    They declare that the best service of the Supreme Being is the practice of man’s duties.

    They set among the most important of these duties the detestation of bad faith and tyranny, by punishing tyrants and traitors, by caring for the unfortunate, respecting the weak, defending the oppressed, doing unto others all the good one can, and not being unjust towards anyone.

    Less than three months later, Robespierre was executed, and the Cult of the Supreme Being “lost all official sanction and disappeared from public view.”

    Restoring Public Service Loan Forgiveness
    The White House
    March 7, 2025
    By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:

    Section 1. Purpose. In 2007, the Congress established the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Program to encourage Americans to enter the public service sector by promising to forgive their remaining student loans after they completed 10 years of service in those jobs while making 10 years of minimum payments.

    The prior administration abused the PSLF Program through a waiver process, using taxpayer funds to pay off loans for employees still years away from the statutorily required number of payments. Moreover, instead of alleviating worker shortages in necessary occupations, the PSLF Program has misdirected tax dollars into activist organizations that not only fail to serve the public interest, but actually harm our national security and American values, sometimes through criminal means. The PSLF Program also creates perverse incentives that can increase the cost of tuition, can load students in low-need majors with unsustainable debt, and may push students into organizations that hide under the umbrella of a non-profit designation and degrade our national interest, thus requiring additional Federal funding to correct the negative societal effects caused by these organizations’ federally subsidized wrongdoing.

    As President of the United States, I have a duty to protect, preserve, and defend the Constitution and our national security, which includes ending the subsidization of illegal activities, including illegal immigration, human smuggling, child trafficking, pervasive damage to public property, and disruption of the public order, which threaten the security and stability of the United States. Accordingly, it is the policy of my Administration that individuals employed by organizations whose activities have a substantial illegal purpose shall not be eligible for public service loan forgiveness.

    Sec. 2. Restoring Public Service Loan Forgiveness. The Secretary of Education shall propose revisions to 34 C.F.R. 685.219, Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program, in coordination with the Secretary of the Treasury as appropriate, that ensure the definition of “public service” excludes organizations that engage in activities that have a substantial illegal purpose, including:

    (a) aiding or abetting violations of 8 U.S.C. 1325 or other Federal immigration laws;

    (b) supporting terrorism, including by facilitating funding to, or the operations of, cartels designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations consistent with 8 U.S.C. 1189, or by engaging in violence for the purpose of obstructing or influencing Federal Government policy;

    (c) child abuse, including the chemical and surgical castration or mutilation of children or the trafficking of children to so-called transgender sanctuary States for purposes of emancipation from their lawful parents, in violation of applicable law;

    (d) engaging in a pattern of aiding and abetting illegal discrimination; or

    (e) engaging in a pattern of violating State tort laws, including laws against trespassing, disorderly conduct, public nuisance, vandalism, and obstruction of highways.

    Sec. 3. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
    (i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof; or
    (ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

    (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.

    (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

    Sorry, there’s too much going on, and those were philosophical.

    So Robespierre realized they needed God again, and re-inserted him, but sort of a God they made on the spot with no real roots. I’m seeing this right now as every psychologist is popularizing “If only we could just make up a religion as religion is associated with like every good outcome!” …But! Too bad since God isn’t real and Spirit doesn’t exist. Isn’t it like Weinstein or someone associated with him that is ACTUALLY literally trying to do this, invent a new religion that they don’t believe in?

    Newsflash: I’m not going to get off drugs and reject all my sex and hedonism for something that doesn’t exist. Christianity and stuff may be a very mixed bag, but its track record is appropriately long, and the acolytes of it at least say it exists.

    Nature is messy rather than perfect – the idea of spoilt perfection or precarious, super fragile “balance” seems to be an obsession for Leftists. Too much citing of “perfection” in nature.

    …when Nature is constantly using total kluge solutions. Good enough. ALMOST good enough, like that.

    Human nature is a kluge solution. It naturally follows that a religion that would fit to that would look kluge-ish.

    Basically you have a haphazard nuclear reactor built on a coal plant built on a steam plant built on a wood pizza oven. Pipes going everywhere. Various necessary considerations based on not only the mission of a nuclear reactor, but safety concerns over its own structure, mechanics.

    Christianity works pretty well with all the safety valves, alarms, and feedback loops. A tangle. Disjointed, messy, hard to believe on a literal basis. But for instance, taking the human instinct for scapegoating and both using it for its intended purpose AND making you feel guilty yet fulfilled for doing so AND making the scapegoat not your inferior, your outcast unclean, but your hero, savior, king. Like a lightning rod grounding the worst of the bad energy.

    How could a simple logical system be expected to work that only accounts for 3 variables when there are thousands, for the right sort of people when there are all sorts of people, for a logical, blank slate human when that does not, has not, and will never exist? The prosthetic, to fit the patient, has to be a certain shape. Which will not be some fine-machined standard BMW or Kimber part.

    You are breaking bones, cutting off circulation, driving people mad with misery trying to force what you think ought to be the logical prosthetic. So…anti human then. Policies that kill all humans. Replace humans. (with other humans? how does that fix anything?) Make humans robots. Anything but give humans and human nature consideration.

    James Kunstler does it again. Smacks the ball over the fence where it hits a light-pole and bounces back into a fielders mitt who throws it back into the game for a neat triple-play. What could have been a bases loaded homer turns into three Outs, one man left on base, no runs, and inning over.

    C’mon Jim! Your description of the Democrat Grift Machine (biggest fraud in HISTORY, Just LOOK at that! Nothing else to see here by golly!) leaves out the part about the Democrats (and their RINO accomplices) being mere middle managers of a much much larger and nastier Franchise. Who’s running the Dems, James? Who’s running the Dems?

    I shouldn’t give Kunstler such a hard time. He does good work. But he just “won’t go there” when the bread crumbs (loaves? Bread Trucks? BAKERIES?) start leading to a centralized, organized, deliberate Cabal. I reckon it’s because so many of the Cabal hail from the same tribe. Don’t worry James! They’re not all J**ish. Just most of them. And they’re not actually Jewish in the first place. They are Satanists. They’re hiding behind the cloak of religion because they’ll get strung up for crow bait if they don’t, but they don’t actually believe a word of it, and they’re no more “Semitic” than my Sainted Irish mother.

    Trump now says he is close to imposing more sanctions on Russia instead

    I suspect much of what we see on the surface is for public consumption, while the real work goes on behind the scenes. Putin, who miraculously was able to slowly raise his nation off its knees, while keeping both internal and external enemies in check, is no dummy. He knows the predicament that Trump is in, because he’s been there himself.

    “Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, Here I am, stuck in the middle with you”

    Trump, on the other hand, must say a lot of bizarre things to act as lightening rod for the media (a role he relishes), while his agents pursue his MAGA-ANTI-WWIII-MULTIPOLAR agenda unmolested. He must also throw out the occasional anti-Russian threat to keep the black hats in his own camp off balance, not to mention an unstable population that is still under the spell of eight years of Russia-gate anti-Trump brainwashing. Trump must thread the needle if he wishes to succeed. Attempting to turn the ship of state too quickly could be fatal. Putin knows this, so will play Punch and Judy to the spotlight, while he, Trump, and other sovereigntists, reshape the post-WWII order off stage.

    The beard makes a huge difference for sure!

    One can find various interviews, speeches, debate clips, of him saying “I was wrong” and giving reasons why.

    The past couple decades have really lowered my expectations

    From leaders that mean what they say to leaders who aren’t so retarded or evil or isolated that they have no idea what things to say that would even make sense to normal people

    There was a time when I watched Putin speak extemporaneously for HOURS on various subjects, sounding like he had some kind of grip on reality and morality — as if is all I could say for sure

    Vs the entire west leadership that might as well have been emitting pterodactyl noises – that would have been BETTER than what they were actually saying. In terms of having no grip on reality or morality or how to even properly LIE.
