    The Road Not Taken
    By Robert Frost
    Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
    And sorry I could not travel both
    And be one traveler, long I stood
    And looked down one as far as I could
    To where it bent in the undergrowth;

    Then took the other, as just as fair,
    And having perhaps the better claim,
    Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
    Though as for that the passing there
    Had worn them really about the same,

    And both that morning equally lay
    In leaves no step had trodden black.
    Oh, I kept the first for another day!
    Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
    I doubted if I should ever come back.

    I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
    I took the one less traveled by,
    And that has made all the difference.

    “Somewhere between approximately 15 to 30 gunshots were fired…In front of the White House”

    Trump is a Globalist, that’s why they keep shooting him. But luckily they’re down to 1 assassination attempt per day.

    This is a danger to the people: if only he would surrender and stop being President, we wouldn’t have to shoot him all the time. Follow Promethean for more predictions on this, they point out the specific anti-London actions that inspire each one.

    I’ve suggested elsewhere that we need a new term for viruses that function as projection screens for spectral images of mass death in the collective imagination. The term I propose for these, in honor of the current candidate for that role, is hauntaviruses.” — Archdruid

    Hilarious.

    “Israel Unleashes New Gaza Strikes Soon After Trump Says Iran Peace Deal ‘Largely Negotiated,’ Hormuz To Reopen As Final Terms Discussed

    Uh-huh. Show me. And is there nothing that can stop Israel? Trump says he’d be the most popular PM there at 99%. Go run there and show me.

    “Jeffrey Sachs: The Baltic States Are Now the “Most Dangerous Place” in the World

    Will you pay me $1000 if they’re not? So Russia is going to invade and level them all now? They haven’t even activated Belarus yet! Yup, after four years Russia is going to attack and activate all NATO. Same as they kept using all those chemical weapons in Syria. Russia why can’t you stop shelling your own bases and nuclear reactors?

    Elon Musk: “Trump is not evil, the real villains are the media and their game of lies.”

    That depends what you think “Evil” is. Ego? You’re paving America and shutting off all the food for your cities, factories, and AI farms. That’s not a great on the ground indicator. That’s nearly as anti-life as your enemies.

    Promethean: From CFR, God forbid we should change the wonderful “Liberal Democracy” actions we’ve had since 1960. It’s been so super-awesome for the American People and regime change around the world. All that nasty income disparity has been plummeting that whole time. And we haven’t got into a habit of attacking anything we feel like or anything, with no restraint or balance of powers in Congress, or with other nations. So yeah, I can see why she’d be super sad any of this would change. “Appeal to the Status Quo.” Because SHE, government laptop jockey PMC, making 6 figures safe at home is doing well, while every working person is crushed that whole time. It’s very, very important her paycheck continue! Since today is an amazing utopia of liberal peace and light.

    “The hostility of the Muslim states toward Israel remains implacable,”

    That seems very difficult to believe since they are indistinguishable in any way over not just the Iran war, but going years back since Abraham. It’s taken as given, but would you like to present any support for this? To me this is a training, persistence-of-vision thing from the 70’s and not true now.

    “The U.S. is the “Great Satan” because its promise of a just society”

    Hahaahahaha! What a dope! No. It’s because we’ve been dicking with Iran since 1900. Rumsfeld Giving Saddam chemical weapons and getting a million killed in the Iraq-Iran war for instance, then doing everything we can think of to keep them in the stone age for decades since, while surrounding them with bases. Yeah, we’re innocent little angels only wanting “Freedom!” 10,000 miles from home. PS the “Little Satan” is 100x worse, which is really saying something.

    We’re not going to get anywhere unless at least ONE side stops lying. I’m not going to stop Iran, so maybe I can hold my own country to account.

    “• Finish the Job, Mr. President (A.j. Christopher)

    As here. PJ Media, the “Conservatives” (as if there are any), the Americans, want everything and everyone in Iran dead. Ok pal, here’s a rifle, we’re parachuting you in tomorrow morning. You still feel the same? Oh it’s all different now that YOU have something at risk? GFY. He’s just as abstracted not from Morality, which is taken for given, but Reality itself. Don’t. This is exactly the kind of approach that is against all things American.

    Here’s a far more American approach: WTF would we care if the strait is open or closed at all? Is this one of those “Foreign Entanglements” and not “Neutral trade with all” General Washington warned us about? The “Partisanship” that would tear the country apart? He’s “committed” focusing on the sliver in the other guys’ eye, not the beam in ours. Would Iran even BE bad if we hadn’t been f–king them?

    .. the Iranian parliament is drafting legislation to offer a reward of €50 million for assassinating Donald Trump..”

    Well it’s about time they did something. But Starmer and Ursula would give $500M and Ze provided the men, so…

    “Both sides are nearing a “memorandum of understanding” to extend a ceasefire. The problem is that the Iranian regime has broken the ceasefire we have currently many times,”

    As have we. I would give a nickel to which of us broke it faster or more, we’re both peas in a pod.

    ““The New York Post obtained a photo of the gunman and said he believed he was Jesus Christ.“

    And so how is he pointed at Trump and not the local McDonald’s counter? The media maybe?

    “Nasire Best” Ah. A Muslim name. And he was “Pretty, Good, and Best” What are the odds? Who’s next? “Hillary McGunnagain?”

    “The Russia-China strategic partnership, the leaders in the process of Eurasia integration, the leaders of multipolar bodies BRICS and the SCO, have formally endorsed and boosted the drive towards multipolarity”

    He needs a new paradigm, everything is falling out of this one. Arctic routes are not BRIICS at all, they are exclusively Russian. SCO was vital Silk Road, except they all end in Iran, which the BRIICS totally abandoned and rejected. So there is no SCO without them. China is cutting equally strong ties with the U.S. and Pacific Rim, which is Anti-BRIICS, etc. So sure that DID happen, in the Obama/Biden or even the last Trump years as a necessity. Right now, the concepts are dissolving and evolving into something else.

    ““The EU wants to restrict people’s mobility as far down the route as possible”

    This is as violent as possible. Where Trump said “Hey, you’re not going to get free stuff and also get deported” and the flow stopped overnight merely on his words. “Free stuff”. Including shutting off the “Free rapes of any blonde girl” and you’ll see it slow right down.

    So why does Morocco have to put up with this s—t and be the bad guy just because Starmer in Rotherham wants to hand out free Rape Safari passes? Btw, those passes appear to still be current and red-hot with use, UK and Europe-wide, not embarrassed a bit.

    ““The Algerian army allegedly tortured many of them.”

    I’m not making light of this, but what does that mean? They weren’t very, very nice to them? “Torture” used to mean something, now it means they don’t have cable TV and an open buffet in Western Prisons. Needless to say this is not much of a deterrent when living in Prison is better than their daily lives back home. Also did any of them, say 300 migrants try to bum rush the 30 soldiers talking to them? I would. That means the “Soldiers” are not the position of power, and the migrants the designated victims. Soldiers would be terrified and likely to be killed. A lot.

    This is why we have courts and unpack each allegation one by one.

    “• What the Democrats’ Push to Impeach Chief Justice Roberts Is About (Margolis)

    As I said yesterday and since 2016, this is indicated by there being no substance to the impeachments. If he is really that bad, you should have no trouble finding very obvious, easily-proven acts, right? You’re like “I sorta disagree with the way he interpreted his job”. Yeah, that’s a Political problem, not a legal one, or rather to say it’s a tough case to make.

    “When did the Democrats last field anything resembling a quality presidential candidate, even from the rather myopic view of a Liberal Democrat voter?”

    Yes, oddly they are more divided than the GOP and more divided than the nation. Having 20% crazies and 80% low-information voters who think they’re being informed by CNN and the View. I see this out of the relentless Turrets’ virtue-signalers in Europe as well. Stop for a second and you’ll realize the political field isn’t as simple as you pretend it is. They’re on the (new) Gaza Flotilla. Great. That really did f—k -all for anything, “Drawing attention” to something everyone knows. So you tourists intentionally went into a war zone and the nearby governments harassed and arrested you? No s—t, thank them for their service; what are you doing there? If you’re not bringing guns, STFU. THAT would be demonstrating solidarity, not this LARPing.

    Not that the Republicans are at all well-informed but they’re asking questions and their map is capable of change, although it’s usually being altered with the hurricane of lies.

    Are there decent, normal Democratic candidates? Undoubtedly. But the first and every action they take they’ll be shouted out by Democratic crazies and can’t get anywhere. Sunk by their own people. Who is the guy doing the rounds suddenly? His organization is merely trying to fill empty seats in local governments, D-R, doesn’t matter who so long as they’re just average, normal people. This is quite true, and at that level it’s very easy to have a D who balances budget and investigates what happened to all the money with the Soros people had in our city. That’s it. Just do normal government.

    Pick one? Jimmy Dore and Joe Rogan could both run on Democratic Platform without much trouble and possibly win. Hundreds of others, I’m sure. The Party itself treats them like cancer because it would uncover their fraud, as in Minnesota. How can I say that? That’s exactly what happened in 2016 and 2024, no primary for either. Bernie was kicked out of CA without one. So what was being protected that you’d expose yourself that badly?

    “All of that was just a setup to what both seemed to really want to talk about, which is President Donald Trump and the Joos.”

    Yup. All fake (and ghey!) until they get down to the real agenda: backstabbing coups. That is to say, they aren’t real, at all, either of them. They are not “good faith actors” so they can’t be trusted with anything and aren’t worth listening to, since they’re both lying snakes. You have no idea what weasels are capable of, you’ll never outsmart the profoundly mentally deranged. It’s impossible for you to imagine the sort of lies they’ll tell. As for instance they’re now close allies and the Laptop thing never happened.

    “That was addiction. That wasn’t corruption.”

    There was a Congressional release of his texts with hookers, because it involves trafficking sex-slaves over state lines. A felony, perhaps? Hmmmmm…. In it, he was constantly paying (and bouncing checks) for $5k/$10k a night. So that may be addiction, sure, but every dollar of the MONEY comes from corruption. You might notice I can’t pay $10k a night to go on dates. The fact the money existed at all is rock-certain evidence of massive, wild, international-scale corruption. I mean, they’re not from the Nvidia Fortune or something, are they?

    “Mexico and the European Union signed a long-stalled free trade agreement on Friday as they seek to decrease dependence on the U.S.”

    Uhhh…the U.S. is the market. They’re signing to sell BMWs to MEXICANS? How does any of that work? WE are the pot of money they need to steal from. Mexico is fine, but don’t have THAT LEVEL of till to rob.

    “they are telling Mexico they will import more chickens, pork, dairy and row crops.”

    Europe – including the people – already rioted over this last fall. They can’t dare crush their farmers, they’ll flip the governments. But this is what happens when your power rests on screwing everybody: “everybody” becomes your enemy, both Peter and Paul.

    “• Disney’s Marvel Comics Faces Mass Layoffs And New Woke Leadership (ZH)

    Conservatives knew full well about this, but they believe in “Free markets” and people making choices. The Left will come to your house and kill you. So obviously in that balance the Right will be out-gunned. And yes, it’s super-sad to lose these great stories and characters but what happens? We make new ones. Free market. And stop mining like “Starsky and Hutch” remakes in 2026.

    Statins, Top 3 Health causes are all the same, and essentially voluntary. Diet. Have to drop sugars, carbs, not to damage your metabolism, gain weight, and eventually top over into full Type II. This is the easiest medical win in world history, saving millions a year for free, so they won’t do it and have no interest at all.

    Russo: and all the other Communist Manifestos, like public school and sex equality, actually. It’s crazy of me to bring it up although they are on every one of them, and both they and the conservatives are on Zero of say, “conservative” planks, regardless of how defined.

    Note, the approach to this is the People are all mindless cattle, existing to serve the rich, the party members, Feudalism. This is the Opposite of the claims Socialism makes about equality and Brotherhood. One is their words, the other their actions.
