November 15, 2024 at 12:19 pm #174444poppieParticipantWhile I am logged in, I forgot to tell the story that goes with the picture. When I saw the picture I just had to have it. I tracked down the artist and contacted him. He said he was getting a lot of traffic about it. The Economist owned the rights. If he got permission he would let me know. So it appears the Economist thought they were slandering Trumpy but the work was very popular. Being an autisttard I couldnt let it go. I checked many hits of many searches. days. I found the web page of the art director of the Economist where the cover art of every issue the director had approved had a source write up and a master grade digital copy in the open with no copyright. Personal pride in other peoples work. With an abundance of ethics I did not download a copy. Nor did I have posters made for my friends.

All three are amazing. But speaking of myth and archetype: https://barsoom.substack.com/p/the-cauldron-of-reality
“Trump Will Be The Nail In ESG’s Coffin: Such was the topic of a new Bloomberg op-ed piece”
He has nothing to do with it. More like a marker. However, this is Al Gore’s multi-trillion plan of wealth transfer TO friends and away from enemies. WHILE killing all humans, as we see in Germany right now. #Winning.
We’re merely moved from mass-murdering, world-wide-genocide extreme to, let’s-not-also-PAY-for-the-privilege extreme. There’s quite a ways to go.“FBI Official Who Oversaw J6 Pipe Bomb Probe Lied About Receiving ‘Corrupted’ Evidence
What a shock! You mean we always KNEW who it was talking on a cell phone, planting bombs, in one of the world’s most surveilled cities? But that would mean the government was LYING!
“Insurers are refusing to cover Americans whose DNA reveals health risks. It’s perfectly legal.” –The AtlanticGee, who told you that? And what New England-based magazine said it’ll all be okay? Major multi-national corporations are experts saving you and would never misbehave? Your data is safe with the woldwide global panopticon?
Speaking of:
“Public debate is afflicted by short-term thinking – how did history abdicate its role of inspiring the longer view?” –AeonYou. You did that. I’ve watched magazines do this less and less every hour of my life. We said, “but somebody has to tell the longer story and it’s dumbing people down.” They said, “The New York Times is now at an 8th grade level, and that’s too high because USA Today is at a 4th Grade level and are eating our lunch. More potential readers. And people don’t like to work.” I kid you not. Same as Churches did. “This morality and consequences stuff, mean, boring, and outdated, amirite? What you really need to fill the seats is to NOT have a religion in here…” Uh, no, because drinks are better at the club and bowling is more fun. Channeling Stark Industries, you’re now a Weapons Company…that doesn’t produce weapons. You’re an information company…that doesn’t provide information.
I would just say, “Sure, but SOMEBODY has to be that smarter paper: sell those readers.” This is like the Doonesbury model: a cartoon that is in 100% of papers nationwide, but inscrutable and undecipherable. And funny? Not like Dilbert funny, but depends on your point of view. Here’s the thing: it’s popular BECAUSE it’s smart. You DO have to get up to speed with the code, the information underneath it, that is, daily trends and politics. It’s smart but not for everyone. Just like dumb is not for everyone.
So who was right? Well dumb podcasts are probably more popular, but smart podcasts have an enormous base. Even very, very very long-seeing ones like Althist. The most popular podcast on earth is arguably in the upper 75% smart: Joe Rogan. Who SHOULD be the lower 45% dumb as a boxer.
“…How did HISTORY abdicate?” — Abstraction. Passive tense. No one did that. History Professors are still writing history theses. YOU, the media, magazines and publishers did that. We watched you do it then complain about how dumb Americans were getting. Decade after decade. Classic. Classic Boomers. “How’d these kids get all these participation trophies, the snowflake idiots?” Um, Newsflash: Kids don’t give THEMSELVES trophies. Boomer administrators do. So as narcissists, they have to be the ONLY smart people in the room, in the family. Even if they have to DESTROY all the other members, take away their books and keep them from reading. Aeon.
Conclusion: this is not an accident.

As only yesterday, who was it, the editor of the Guardian said she was cutting off all her friends and family for the holidays, perhaps forever? They’re not Churchianity enough and only attend once a day, the bigots. Don’t they know they hold mass TWICE a day? What are you Satan’s minion? And you could be at Church club reading between masses too, you unwashed heathen scum. You deplorable pustules of unworthiness. You could be Just. Like. Me.

Yeah, because they’re all f—g cowards. So THEY want to endorse Trump, like 20%-40% of their artist FRIENDS want to endorse Trump, but no one, THEY won’t know because they’re fundamentally cowardly and dishonest. Yeah, that’s great for your art! Cue Standup comedians now. “We hate Trump, amirite? Everyone is stupid, amirite? Huh? Huh?” Yeah, that’s the LOWEST comedy, the worst, not worthy of a elementary school. You don’t have to go TO Trump, but these limitations are the opportunity to show genius, by mocking what is fundamental to all life and humanity. Like “The Great Dictator” or something. The magic allure and innate classiness of Post-Code Hollywood. Cole Porter’s “Let’s Do It”, which rings to the ages. But I mean W.A.P. Totally will too, amirite?
You know how to stop all this? A: Don’t Be a Coward. That’s it. That’s it for all men. Oh, am I going gender on this one? Okay, how do all Women stop this? A: Defend your husbands and children. That’s it. Trashing your family and disowning them for the holidays is the #Opposite of how women (classically) win here. Act like that for a moment, and everyone hates your guts forever. Same as men being roll-over cowards. Compare with a matriarch who does the Opposite, and keeps love with her whole family, despite all. Who wins?
“Charlie Kirk says that Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter saved freedom of speech, elected Donald Trump, and saved Western Civilization.”
Jeez, overstate your case much? Oh wait: The Guardian is LEAVING Twitter, rage-quitting, because bad people exist and wrote stuff. …Not like in the paper or online versions. No. What they’re doing is they HAVE to leave. They HAVE to. Why? BECAUSE ALL TWITTER EXPOSES THEM AS FRAUDS, SHILLS, and PAID LIARS ALL DAY. They literally CAN’T stay, because 100% of their comment responses are how everything they print isn’t true. They’re exposed.
Oh. Right.
So you have a problem with propaganda: there has to be an Iron Curtain. A Berlin Wall. There can be NO gaps, of any kind, anywhere in it, ever. They have to win 100%, every throw. Meanwhile, all Truth has to do is leak in anywhere and they win. Hey you might be working against the Tao and the Will of Heaven here, maybe? Like maybe a strategy that requires infinite energy input, at an infinitely increasing rate collapses after a while? You Humanist Idiots? GOD, the Universe, is larger than you are? You have LESS energy, it has more?
Yeah, that SOUNDS like hyperbole, but in a way it’s not. And so a day after Musk was backing out, Twitter Execs SUED HIM TO MAKE HIM BUY, he said “Okay then” and was on time-track for the election. But Musk never did no good stuff. Like the Turtles, it’s only Bad all the way down.
“1840 French philosopher Alexis de Tocqueville accurately predicted what kind of tyranny democratic modern nations would face”
And he was right (as about most things). He also said if “America ceased to be good, it would no longer be Great.”
“Under the leadership of @elonmusk & @VivekGRamaswamy, @DOGE will now put a stop to that.”
No they won’t. WE will or no one will. That’s OUR job, not theirs.
Yeah, cluephone: speaking of abdicating to bureaucracies to trust they are working for you so you can ignore it all again and sit at home? That problem is not fixed by swapping Comey for Musk. It doesn’t matter WHICH bureaucracy parasites you, it’s anti-Liberty.
““It will be ironic if Kennedy restores our health but Trump’s foreign policy team destroys us in war.”
Yeah, well, problem: They still have a s—t ton of power. The only way to GET them to stop killing Americans by the millions is TO tell them we need healthy kids for a war. …We did exactly this after everyone was too anemic and starving for WWI. The PROBLEM is to double-cross them after and NOT have the war. Since we can get them to sign on to health in the short term, let them. Oh you want to FIGHT them, and STOP the warhawks by having a nation too unhealthy to walk a mile? Wow. #Winning. You’re a genius. No.

“one of the biggest comebacks since Lazarus..”
Everybody’s saying this, but it’s not that unusual. We have what, two Presidents in 45? That’s 5% odds, very average, same as hair color? I think this may be because they all use Parliamentary systems where you become a pest and liability if you outstay your welcome, which isn’t at all like ours. Even so, I think this happens regularly in Italy, I wonder what they compare to. “We Make S—t Up” cuz it feels good. This average, center-left President, a rich guy from NY, boy, so weird and odd, right? Unprecedented. The only way he could be MORE average is to be from Ohio. (Eight Presidents)
““President Trump should work to eliminate the need for the Fed to keep interest rates low. He can do this by fighting for massive spending cuts, starting with the military-industrial complex..”
Luongo has already said they can and plan to do this (he thinks: of course he is not on the inside). Wall Street, that is, barely our industrialists, but let’s pretend, need to bring CONGRESS and the Infinite Bureaucracy to heel. …Or they will “Go direct” and install worldwide Soviet Socialist state with a CBDC and no property rights. Duh. So the budget – now $1 Trillion every FIFTY days – plus 5x the budget INTEREST payments, well, the FED, that is: The Wall Street Banks, are in charge. They can have Powell raise to 10% overnight and then Interest payments bankrupt Congress in 10 days. You don’t USE the threat – like Brunson – it may be enough to HAVE the threat to keep them in line. Do you want to tango with Wall Street, boys? As Bane said, “Do you feel powerful now?”
Back to Paul, IF we can get an economy, and IF we can drop $2T from the budget (should be child’s play) THEN we can not only boom, not only attract investment, but SCREW EUROPE HOLLOW with maybe a mere 5%, 7% rates — not 17% -25% rates like we deserve. What happens if all the U.S. and North America have an economy, Emerging-Market, Global South is still in a funk, and Europe is a crater? Oh yeah WE EAT THEIR LUNCH. All investment capital comes here, the US$ stays (mostly) intact. You want German Bonds, with no economy, a bankruptcy, and a continental war at 2%, or U.S. Treasuries with a raging bounceback economy at 5%? Uh, yeah: No bonds for you. Europe is all debt and deficit and collapses. …Which is okay, since that’s what they had planned for us. No Mercy until you stop being the fool and taking about us eating bugs. G. F. Y.

“Mike Huckabee, Trump’s pick for Ambassador to Israel, says the modern nation of Israel was created by the hand of Almighty God. He proclaims eternal belief in an Old Testament command: “God says those who bless Israel will be blessed, and those who curse Israel will be cursed”
Much as I defend Christians, I cannot abide this s—t. Yeah: God ALSO destroyed Israel several times for being a dick. GOD is the one who cursed Israel personally, there are whole BOOKS in the Bible about it, Jeremiah for example. You might have noticed? Since you keep a copy handy?
Former perspective: this is WHY God scattered Israel after Christ and why it’s okay to dump on them and abuse them for centuries. So…no new books of the Bible were printed – what happened? Oh, like the Supreme Court, “We Make S—t Up!” We just changed our minds! One day it’s a legal law, totally logical, next day it’s completely foolish and cray-cray. Then this came to mind, “I keep following the Science that’s following the money.” Totally unrelated, but maybe that helps.

Moscow has also ruled out talks with Kiev as long as Ukrainian troops occupy part of the border region of Kursk.Trump has nominated several critics of Ukraine aid for top government positions, including Senator Marco Rubio for secretary of state, Tulsi Gabbard for director of national intelligence, and Matt Gaetz for attorney general.
The nominations must be confirmed by the Senate, which the Republicans regained control over in this year’s election.

Trump names his defense lawyers for top DOJ and solicitor general rolesPresident-elect Trump announced Thursday he will nominate attorneys Todd Blanche and Emil Bove, who’ve both represented him in several criminal cases, to No. 2 and No. 3 spots in the Department of Justice.
The latest: Dean John Sauer, another of Trump’s attorneys, was tapped for solicitor general after representing Trump in his Jan. 6 case, in which the Supreme Court ruled that presidents have immunity for “official acts.”
The big picture: Trump has vowed to reform the DOJ and will nominate Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) to serve as attorney general to oversee this during his second term.
Trump wants Blanche to serve as deputy attorney general and said in a statement Thursday the lead attorney in his New York hush money trial “will be a crucial leader in the Justice Department, fixing what has been a broken System of Justice for far too long.”
Zoom in: Bove will serve as principal associate deputy attorney general and as acting deputy attorney general while Blanche is in the process of being confirmed by the Senate, Trump said.“Emil is a tough and strong attorney, who will be a crucial part of the Justice Department, rooting out corruption and crime,” he added.
Trump called Sauer a “deeply accomplished, masterful appellate attorney,” and acknowledged the role he played in the Supreme Court immunity ruling.
“Most recently, John was the lead counsel representing me in the Supreme Court in Trump v. United States, winning a Historic Victory on Presidential Immunity, which was key to defeating the unConstitutional campaign of Lawfare against me and the entire MAGA Movement,” he said in a statement.

Pentagon Again Applies Budget Lies To Deliver More Weapons To Ukraine – Jul 26 2024, MoAFourth Time The Pentagon Is Faking The Books For Ukraine
For a fourth time the Pentagon is ‘finding money’ outside of the budget that can be spend on Ukraine.I had previously noticed three occasions in which the Pentagon, on order of the Biden administration, used some or ‘accounting error’ gimmicks to ‘find’ more money for Ukraine.
Here is now another, the fourth, incident of creative budget accounting in favor of money for war in Ukraine:
MONEY TALKS: The Biden administration has more money to help Ukraine than originally thought. All reports previously indicated that there was $4.3 billion left in the Presidential Drawdown Authority account, which reimburses the U.S. armed forces for munitions and equipment sent to Ukraine.
Turns out, the number is actually $7.1 billion, thanks to some revised accounting the Pentagon has done, DOD officials tell your anchor. That extra $2.8 billion isn’t just found money. The way things work is that the Pentagon calculates how much buying replacement goods for what it sends Ukraine will cost. The number crunchers at the Pentagon ran through the lists and discovered that replacement for some items cost less than anticipated.
The plan is for the administration to spend down that whole $7.1 billion by Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20, which is a pretty tall order given the cadence of aid packages being announced roughly every two weeks work between $200 million and $500 million. Those numbers are going to have to go way up, but even then deliveries of that equipment would continue well into the Trump administration, which could turn off the spigot at any time.
Creative accounting like this, i.e. faking the books, is a no-no for commercial entity as it might well end with time spent in jail.I’ll repeat myself:
Any commercial company doing what the Pentagon is doing here would be asking for serious trouble.
One wonder if and when Congress will wake up to this.————

The environmental group Climate Cymru BAME has issued a report instructing the government to create “dog-free areas in local green spaces” as part of an “anti-racist” drive to make the country more “inclusive”.The advice was reinforced by another group, the North Wales Africa Society, which complained that “one black African female stated that she feels unsafe with the presence of dogs” during a focus group meeting.

I also wonder how Trump will manage to get Congress to overturn the rule about keeping so many aircraft carriers on hand, which is a massive hole into which billions are poured annually for an obsolete weapons system.

November 15, 2024 at 9:00 pm #174482citizenxParticipantSix cities were locked down to include only the vaccinated in public indoor places. They were New York City, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. The plan was to enforce this with a vaccine passport.
They did enforce this…it was not just a plan. Seattle was the first city in the US to lockdown and the last to “reopen” – it was Liberal hell and insanity. What I experienced and witnessed from 2020-23 from the cult is unfathomable to most of you, count yourself fortunate. 2024 election just fueled their insanity and hatred.
Vax cards were mandatory for both employment and entry to all public/ private spaces. Libtard Gov Inslee disarmed the public with a weapons and magazine ban. They went full authoritarian group think hive mind consensus ‘reality’. They closed hiking trails and banned being in the Mountains alone….
I will never forgive or forget. Any and all retribution is justified. And now they cry, oh how they cry about Trump and hating America. They are disgusting hypocritical sub human filth.
Don’t Be a Coward. That’s it for all men. Okay, how do all Women stop this? A: Defend your husbands and children.
Behind every great man is an even better woman- Remember that one?
Democrat Liberal women are disgusting, they hate men, torture their children, and blame men as racist and sexist for Trump winning. They are so fucking tone deaf and mentally ill…the real mind virus.When the vax cards became reality I knew it was an act of war and it still continues. When you are behind enemy lines= a partisan, guerilla fighter, dissident, rebel- Continuing to fight and resist with intelligence AND courage are critical- not just courage. Exposing yourself as pureblood around a million of these fuckers was self immolation- better to wait and throw the molotov ie Trumps art than to not throw at all.
Musk and Rogan saved free speech which Liberals hate.
Never forget, liberals want to control OR destroy YOU- or both.
Liberals also hate truth- which is exactly why they want to control speech.From the sword of the crusader to the missionary spin
From the atom of creation to the secrets deep within
Illusions and delusions lead us where we shouldn’t go
Time to disconnect from clutter, time to hit the roadRide out to a bold new horizon
Where the sun may be shinin’
On a place you’ve never seenRide out lift your soul and your spirit
Take a chance and get near it
Everybody needs a dreamIs the media for real do we fake or do we feel
Do we base all our appeal on a model or a myth
It’s a market correction it’s addiction resurrection
It’s the last thing you mention before you knock it stiffRide out where the hills meet the valleys
Far from campaigns and rallies
And the things we do for oilRide out mix the real and imagined
With the lost and abandoned
And bring it to a boilIt takes your breath away
The way we pay and pay and pay and payYou can take it to the masses you can run it up a pole
You can conquer all resistance and believe you’re in control
But the world will be watchin’ there’s a crack in every lie
When it opens like a chasm you can kiss it all goodbyeRide out to the high copper canyons
Past the shacks and the mansions
Where the rivers never endRide out past the peaks and the mesas
To the wide open spaces
You may never see againRide out to a brand new horizon
Where the sun may be shinin’
On a place you’ve never seenRide out lift your soul lift your spirt
Take a chance and get near it

November 15, 2024 at 10:07 pm #174485jb-hbParticipantI suspect the concerns about what will happen if the spigot for wildly printed money is turned down or off is analogous to education.
If we test our teachers for competency while requiring a passing grade to test, we could have x% teachers fired and how will we educate without teachers.
…when actually, we’re discovering for the first time how many teachers we actually HAD.
How much of the federal dollars pouring into the state fund corruption and waste? How much fraud is there in disabilities, unemployment, etc? So if the printed money slows down, we find out how much STUFF we actually had all along.
But taking a step back further, there’s something really REALLY wrong with our money. There are clearly heaps and heaps of it, galactic sized, being used in a way that essentially creates a command economy, overrules any market action.
Or thought of a different way, wherever the endless waterfall of money is coming from – not just government – it’s like roundup. You spray EVERYTHING including the stuff you want to live, but then you did something that makes just the things you wanted to live survive (monsanto crops)
So you spray everything with infinite money, make sure only your chosen winners stand next to the spigot while everything else perishes despite any all of their free market actions. Everything but your GMO soybeans dies.
So particular people being replaced or retiring from active power won’t cut it. Redistributing money won’t cut it. The money itself has to die. I don’t want to steal all those trillions out there for myself, nor set myself up as dictator re-distributing it morally, I want to put it in a big pile and burn it all.

you really need to put your resume into the Trumpy transition team.
Very respectfully
PoppieNovember 15, 2024 at 11:13 pm #174493aspnazParticipant“..Tesla – the largest EV automaker in the US and the only one not reliant on EV credits for survival..”
Yes, the EV subsidy, but what about all the other subsidies such as the battery manufacturing subsidies? Will they be going too, in which case how will Tesla survive given that it cannot make a profit without these subsidies? The tarrifs on foreign EVs have been set so high that the market price of domestic made electric vehicles in the USA have been able to rise due to the destruction of cheap competition; this allows the inefficient home industries to survive, subsidising their inefficiency through artificial rigging of prices. Tesla yet again proving that it cannot survive without the help of the government teat.
November 15, 2024 at 11:19 pm #174494aspnazParticipant“Gaetz is no milk toast. He is a strong individual, the kind of person needed in such a critical office. My question is: does he have the seasoning..”
A nice idea but how will Gaetz handle the internal politics of running a huge division of the government. Will he know how to fire the people that need to go in order to create a team loyal to his leadership? I very much doubt it. Will he do a Trump, try to convert the team owned by the previous leader, and fail. Same with Tulsi Gabbard. My guess is that these appointments will crash due to a total lack of experience in senior management. We saw the same with Trump in 2016, total lack of experience resulted in him being blindsided by everyone.

So much for budget cuts, one teat closes, another opens up. The USA just can’t tighten it’s belt, too much living in comfort, getting what you want, you will run up the credit card until one day it will all suddenly stop and reality will become real again; until then, reality is unreal, reality is whatever the oligarchs want it to be.
