Diego Velázquez The Spinners 1655-60 • RINOs Keep Senate As Thune Beats Rick Scott To Replace McConnell (ZH) • Marco Rubio Doesn’t Even Speak M
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle November 14 2024]“McMaken: Congress Should Fire Jerome Powell
WTF? That’s LITERALLY illegal. Does no one even BOTHER anymore? The only (legal) wat to dump Powell is to End the Fed. I mean, okay, but you may not like it.
We’ve had a ton of these this week, like Harris is going to be Sotomayor. I had some words which I then replaced with other words. And the words sounded cool. So, it’s settled then! That’s logic now. Newsflash: THINKING things, or clicking them online, is way easier then DOING things, which are hard, limited and few. Since they’ve lost their minds, they can’t tell the difference.
In other news, absolutely every person Trump has hired sucks donkey. …But then I’m sort of a zealot and very strict on these things. Sure he has DOGE category, and good, but this is still all playing around the margins, to allow the Empire to collapse slowly and on a schedule. …While continuing Empire behaviors, ‘natch. Elon for example now is the GOP version of the “Spoils Crew”: exactly like the DNC have been, handing out money only to friends, and shutting down enemies, they are going to shut down every DNC-infested wing. …And leaving all the MICMAC GOP ones. …So we can continue to have the Praetorian Guard goose-step around the world. That’s what I’m seeing so far, prove me wrong. #*@< that $#!*.
However, just picked Gaetz for AG, which is hilarious. He should have an axe to grind since apparently the DoJ just made up everything to sink him, whole-cloth. Go ahead and arrest everyone, Matt. I’ll watch with popcorn. Anyone heard from Diddy lately?
Tulsi, DNI. Let’s see if they can stove-pipe her, give her bent document in her meetings and stuff. I don’t think she’ll put up with that much.
“Thank heavens Kamala lost. If she’d won, the Jacobins would have cemented their hold on the country, and it would have been “game over”…” CaseySo I’m mad Trump won? Nothing matters? Nope. As that sentence, it just makes things LESS bad and keeps it in play. If Kamala won, it would have been “Game Over”…or rather, since we literally can’t stop fighting since they’d kill us all, a far darker, more desperate play. You can say, well maybe that would change something more fundamentally, but to get from East to West, don’t you still have to traverse every point in-between? So at some point we would be in the situation where we MIGHT try to collapse less fast and rear-guard the Empire, trying to keep up old corrupt patterns that are wrong and outdated. We can choose to do that easy, or go down further, be destroyed far more, and face it later anyway.
I’d rather not. I’d rather have not in 1993, but these guys weren’t ready, they wouldn’t believe it and they wouldn’t look. Can you hear me now? When the UN posts every human should die, should you believe them? (for the good of “The Earth”, an abstraction, of course)
So no, choices were the same: No Kamala, now attack Trump and get the directions changed, get him to go as far as we’re able. …This is the same thing the Squad said, by the way: they’d get Biden in then push him Left. …Except that’s work and principles, and they don’t do that. As Rogan’s guests have said, Bernie again only this week, they abandoned the working man, Medicare for all, and everything else. AOC for instance is a multi-millionaire in 4 years I believe. You can only push Socialism from your FOURTH home, I hear. At sea level.
“Jack Smith To Resign In Defeat Before Trump Takes Office
That’s odd. Wasn’t he never hired in the first place? And had no position? At least Ze was legal ONCE.
Pakistan Hunting down Vaccinators:
Can we do this for Trump and his Warp Speed now? After we move up the tree to everyone below him, we can use it to cut a deal so he doesn’t swing too.
Yes, all this crap is just a way to muddy the waters as Luongo says. I’m not playing games, and I’ve lost my sense of humor over it. Also as they have no imagination, they’re just trying to imitate the problems on the Left, where there’s nothing BUT infighting. Tim Pool put it well. I mean we’ve been watching this non-coalition of opposites, like Muslims and gays, or for some reason Jews and Blacks (don’t get that one), but it finally mattered. Like he says, if you gave me a million dollars and said come up with a plan to fix the Democratic Party, I couldn’t. I mean, I can’t even CONCEIVE of how you can screw anything up that bad. ALL things can be fixed. But he’s right, I’ll have to debrief on this more later since logically it’s impossible, yet here we are.
Following Luongo:
“Trump’s win caused a political earthquake in Berlin as the German government collapsed after Chancellor Olaf Scholz tried to meet a cash call to his creditors on Ukraine. FDP Finance Minister Christian Lindner refused to approve another 6 billion euros to Ukraine. But Germany is out of money this fiscal year and it needed to go to the Bundestag. So Scholz fired him and Lindner pulled the FDP out of the coalition.”
That was the part I missed, was not emphasized: it’s not JUST a budget spat. It’s because they OWE CREDITORS. Who? Button, button, Who in Europe’s got the button?
“Davos’ whole project depended on using the generational imprint of everyone post-WWII to manufacture political realities at odds with the self-interests of those people. But that puts a time limit on the project. It had to happen before the generations that fought WWII and grew up in the rebuilding phase died off.”
Ding! Ding! Ding! This is what I call the “Social Engineers”. I have trouble with this because I’m logical and not (very) susceptible to it, that’s why it really stands out for me in others. IF they got delayed, like missed by “1984”, got delayed by Trump, etc, THEN they’re hosed. Might as well not bother. IF they can’t get pre-primed, Bolshevik Millennials (wymen) to burn everything down and kill everyone, including their own children, the window is closed. They have to do it against all winds.
What do I mean? Much as Trump sucks, he was put in over a Cruz by YOUNG people. Too.
“”Grand Political Theatre” – FBI Raids Home Of Polymarket CEO; Seize Phone, Electronics
Still at it. Still just harassing political enemies, making enemies of everyone who formerly didn’t care. Okay, you arrested FOR WHAT? Okay, and as a Mob move, you informed them first of the consequences, and told them not to cross the Don? I don’t think so. So Polymarket is supposed to read your f’ing mind, obey orders and warnings you never adequately gave? Even if you’re a mob boss, we’d STILL Have to take you out and collapse you, merely to put in a BETTER mob boss in that case. …And in this case, you’re not supposed to be f—–g mafia, you’re supposed to be the FBI.
…Hey anyone remember just a few years ago when there was no such thing as the Mafia? Even the government said they didn’t exist? Good times, good times. (This was allowed to convert at the time of the “Godfather” Then, a year later, everybody always knew! They had always existed!)
“Schoolhouse Limbo: How Low Will Educators Go To ‘Better’ Grades?
Well, they’re already sleeping with the students and not getting in trouble. No better motivation than that, so what do you want from the poor guys?
“Switzerland: 67% Of Prisoners Are ForeignersWhat? That’s ridiculous, AOC says immigrants are wildly MORE obedient than actual citizens. She’s come to attention recently, still confounding the basics, like this one (Yes honey, crossing the border IS a crime and felony; that makes them all “Criminals” by definition) but also this gem: She’s out asking all Trump supporters (how would they ever hear her?) what blogs and podcasts they listen to. Um. Why? Why are you asking? And you can find out yourself by looking.
Again, premise: All People are only minions and only take orders. Therefore, she is trying to identify the order-givers. She can know this only if SHE is also one of the people who only follow orders. …Which we know since she was recruited as an actress by the Justice Democrats, at an open audition. Meaning? …Meaning THEY give her a script. Who are the script-writers?
So they’re not done being dangerous. She only wants to know so she can target and kill them all.
“• Advertisers Plan Return To X To Get In “Good Graces Of Elon” (ZH)
Soooo….a bribe. That’s all they know. Their plan for cheating, lying, and attempted murder, is bribery and suck-up. God I hate these guys. When can we get competition so they all cease to exist? What does this mean? They’re all core criminals and untrustworthy in any capacity, them, or their brands. Avoid them.
“• Heritage Picks Up the Pieces With Trump After Project 2025 (Wegmann)
Showing the Overton Window remains left of Mao, this is a THINK TANK. Making up a bunch of policies is what think-tanks DO. They have big ones, they have small ones. They have popular ones, they have fringe ones. Hey, if you go to a restaurant and don’t like onion rings, you don’t order them. You don’t boycott and shutter the restaurant because they’re listed on the menu. I don’t see what they did wrong here except “Conservative” = Bad. Which isn’t Heritage’s fault. Are they supposed to tiptoe around and pretend Conservative is bad, only print policies as far Right (or Left) as Mitt Romney? All these people are insane, don’t have core principles.
Left Think-Tanks have 100 years of policies vowing to kill all humans on earth. Crickets. Perfectly reasonable. When they say “kill all humans on earth” clearly you misunderstand them.
WHY this Overton Window? Look at the article: apparently if you call yourself a “Conservative” that has even READ this paper, you’re unemployable. Aaaaaaaaand that means the Conservative, MAGA movement gets staffed with Soros Antifa members. Again, this is all Meta-meta, pre-conscious assumptions, setting the stage and parameters of discussion. They’re also all illogical and fallacies. Why is everyone so retarded that this works?
“• The Establishment Is Disarming the Trump Insurrection (Paul Craig Roberts)
Yes. But I think he and they know this was only to START doing things.
“Elias is an attorney who has been sanctioned in court and denounced by critics as a Democratic “dirty trickster” and even an “election denier.”
Overton Window. Roger Stone is considered a slimeball and dirty trickster, if you point this out, it sticks and he’s able to be raided by the FBI as if this 70-year-old man is going to jump in the canal behind his home with a Scuba team. (Literally happened) Elias is considered a normal, law-supporting Part Lawyer. Article points out very, very few of a far longer list, that probably – not provably – includes far darker things.
“The point is that it does not have to make sense.” The point of Power is POWER. The reason to get power is to get MORE Power. They literally don’t care about law, sense, principles, anything else. And all I’m saying is, therefore you need to dis-bar them when it reaches that point and stop dealing with them. All the law in the world won’t stop if they have no morals or principles. He’s committed crimes: arrest him.
“• Congress Should Fire Jerome Powell (McMaken)
Back to this. You’re all kidding, right? And why? “Oh, we fire the Fed Chair any time the Dow is 36,000 and rising. We all hate good economies like that.” No. W. T. F. ???? Has everyone lost their minds? This is never even SAID, much less said seriously. Like Cutting rates with no unemployment, Inflation at 10%, Dow at record highs, and a day before an election: NOPE! That’s normal now. EVERY ARTICLE I’ve read since I first started this dismal chasm of pointlessness in finance, they never happened! 100 years of saying that daily, never existed! One day, June 2024, we ALWAYS cut rates with Dow 36,000 and a day before an election. That’s not being “Political” at all!
Have I made my point? Because half the magic trick here is to ASSUME these things aren’t galactic-sized unprecedented anomalies, but perfectly reasonable points of discussion. I think not, but can only move on.
Okay, so WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY, suddenly one day, with Record high Dow and arguably record-high inflation, HAS THE WHOLE WORLD GONE MAD, and desperately, HAS to have Powell cut rates, fire him, or shoot him in office?
Yeah, that. Okay WHO is suggesting this? Not Powell. Not Wall Street, since they run Powell. WHO?
Aaaaaaand then we get to Luongo’s thesis that EUROPE is doing this, EUROPE is collapsing, EUROPE will cease to exist, and all WEF, DEI and every other “Socialist” tyrannical techo-state solution isn’t economical unless money is FREE, or even NEGATIVE (Europe). At anything like “Normal” – and we’re not even CLOSE to normal, which is 5-8% — then all their UN World-domination plans collapse and Capitalism exists again. Ya know: with COMPETITION. And Rates of Return. EROEI.The level of “We’re so screwed, and have so zero leverage, even negative leverage, and are so in a hole, clutching at dust mites to save us, that we need to not do rates, not control the fed, not remove Powell, but merely DEMOTE him,” is ludicrous. That’s like losing Monopoly so you want to have an ice cream break just so the game doesn’t end against you for another 15 minutes. You got nothing. And you SO don’t have anything, and you SO know it you can act in ludicrous ways.
No. And END THESE GUYS for the love of God, before they do something like get Daddy’s gun from the dresser and SHOOT you in the game room rather than lose. They’re unhinged. I’m with Tom: Raise rates to 10% and get it over.
Sure, pal. We lower rates with Dow 40k and inflation at 10%, housing unaffordable in 100% of all zip codes. …according to all the textbooks, sure.
So, McMaken, what are you saying here? And why? If anything, I’d fire Powell for LOWERING.
“• The Guardian Accuses Musk Of ‘Racism’ And Quits X (RT)
Guardian calls America’s foremost African-American a Racist. Got it.
Well, let’s be reasonable here: there is Racism ONLINE, so the Guardian should get off the Internet as well! There’s racism in printed PAPER, so they need to stop publishing hard copies too. Be consistent!
…I’m sure Musk is shaking in his moon boots.“• Trump Has ‘Deep Disdain’ For Zelensky – The Hill (RT)
How can he hate the world’s best salesman? And the number of people who have passed through Ze’s office, a million Ukrainians at least. He’s jut jealous he’s never seen $300 Billion dollars – and not in only three years. If only someone had told me murdering 1 million guys was the road to being a $300 Billionaire, he would have done it! But he and his Bugatti, left in the dust. Sad!
“Ukrainian officials admit that Russian forces are advancing in Donbass faster than at any time since the escalation of the conflict,”
That’s why we’re no longer hearing a thing about it. What war? What assassination?
“• Zelensky Insulated From Truth By His Officials – The Economist (RT)
Uh-huh. Sure they are. “Economist” which is the official Rothschild mouthpiece. Because Ze was never leader in the first place, and he’s twice as much not the leader now. So the “People who are really running things haven’t bothered to tell their Press Secretary what to say at the podium lately”. ‘Cause they’re busy. Losing. Translation.
“around 12,000 soldiers and officers have been injured or forced into rehabilitation under the occupation”
This will be a lie – It was said by Israel – but here’s the proportion. Israel: 10M people, many of whom are barely Israeli and will leave in two seconds. Many have. Could be 7M now, but let’s pretend. Proportion, US: 330 Million. So the losses here are equivalent to 400,000 Americans, twice our losses in WWII. In just a few months, and over a war they’re not winning. (Note: these include casualties, may be offset by the amount Israel is lying, but the exercise is to suggest the public PERCEPTION of the war)
IS this a war for their very survival? Despite everything Nutso says, No, and nobody believes that, or at least no more than usual. So you did a WWII for nothing, with no support, no reason, no gain? And this is going to go well, how? …I say keep encouraging them. Send ten Huckabees (so long as you don’t send any arms).
Speaking of, and hard to figure, Amsterdam is so bad, so nuts, APPARENTLY – and amazing claims need amazing proof – Mossad themselves imported on jets Israel’s worst, most bizarro-Nazi supremacists to Amsterdam. Long flight. AND THEN bused them into the street, after a soccer game, at which they started terrorizing all Muslims and Amsterdam in general. Say…um…what??? Yup. And after rampaging for…like an hour…they finally got what they wanted and some random LOCALS, who LIVE THERE, came out to make them stop, since the police wouldn’t. Immediately the police then rounded up all the Palestinian (Dutch), let all the Israeli (foreigners) go, and let Mossad bus them back to the airport to fly home. …Or something. Ask the Gray Zone, a reputable paper who reported this, with their posted links and evidence.
So! That’s where we are now. THAT’S what it takes to have a Pogrom against the Jews now. That’s how anti-Semitic everyone is, I guess, same as Antifa burning 12 cities at $50 billion dollars and killing 50 (mostly black) people. You saw how the Red-Hat MAGA people took to the streets and stopped them in a counter-riot, right? Aaaaaaand so, in Amsterdam. What. The. F—k?
Blumanthal (Huh. Isn’t that a Jewish name?) puts this front page saying his premise is, they arranged this bizarro-riot, as this reinforces the premise of the Jewish ethnostate, particularity with their support (political, but also donors) in Europe. So, money stops flowing in, have yourself a little “Accident.” Probably. Nothing else makes sense with facts like that.
as we look at today’s events an essential filter is to remember the term useleass earter was in use by Henry Kissinger and Newt Gingrich in the era of the Clinton administration.
Kissinger – The elderly are useless eaters. The population needs to be reduced by 50%.
The one thought that characterized the scorched earth mentality of Kissinger and Gingrich can be summarized in a single Kissinger quote:
“The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer.” ~ Henry A. Kissinger
Gingrich – The Man Who Destroyed Congress or Newt Gingrich-The Man Who Blew Up America.When the current crop of usual suspects speak of a booming economy, they are not speaking about the economy in which you participate,
When any crop of the national security usual suspects speak of defending the nation they are not speaking about the booming economy of which you do not participate.four Kissinger quotes to give some context to the current turmoil:
“Military men are just dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy.” ~ Henry A. Kissinger“An expert is someone who articulates the needs of those in power.” ~ Henry A. Kissinger
“What we in America call terrorists are really groups of people that reject the international system” ~ Henry A. Kissinger
“I can think of no faster way to unite the American people behind George W. Bush than a terrorist attack on an American target overseas. And I believe George W. Bush will quickly unite the American people through his foreign policy.” ~ Henry A. Kissinger
the current playbook is as old as sin
Ecclesiastes 1:9
What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.you do understand that The National Bank of Iran has been declared a terrorist organization and thusly any monetary or economic action taken by The Islamic Repuplic of Iran can be designated a terrorist act?
“It is not a matter of what is true that counts, but a matter of what is perceived to be true.” ~ Henry A. Kissinger

• The Establishment Is Disarming the Trump Insurrection (Paul Craig Roberts)
The battle has not begun, and it never will if Trump cannot put together a fighting administration.
There are about 4,000 political appointees in the Executive branch, 1,200 of which have to be confirmed in office by the Senate.
The confirmation power gives the Senate input in controlling staffing in a presidential administration.
Trump and his transition team do not know 1,200 people, much less 4,000.

• Trump To Appoint ‘Special Envoy’ To End Ukraine Conflict – Fox (RT)US President-elect Donald Trump will appoint a special envoy to lead negotiations on resolving the Ukraine conflict, Fox News reported on Wednesday. Trump had previously said he would speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the near future. “You’re going to see a very senior special envoy, someone with a lot of credibility, who will be given a task to find a resolution, to get to a peace settlement,”
Moscow maintains that any settlement must begin with Ukraine ceasing military operations and acknowledging the “territorial reality” that it will never regain control of the Russian regions of Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, and Zaporozhye, as well as Crimea. In addition, the Kremlin insists that the goals of its military operation – which include Ukrainian neutrality, demilitarization, and denazification – will be achieved.
Moscow has repeatedly denied claims that it is planning to attack NATO countries, with Putin recently describing warnings about Russian aggression towards the EU as “nonsense” aimed at alarming citizens and raising defense budgets in the West.

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/not-funny-onion-buys-infowars-bankruptcy-auctionWait, is this a Babylon Bee article?
Nope.
If The Onion had done this in the 90’s, it would have been awesome epic trolling. Is this the first quasi-funny thing The Onion has managed to do in 15 years?
Imagine if you were a devout Catholic all your life and heard that lots of Church officials were being accused of being pedophiles and then with increasing regularity, scandals involving priests kept coming out? Imagine if news broke that the Catholic Church had been facilitating and covering up for pedophilia for decades?
Would you keep that cross on your wall, say “I still believe” and do a lot of the Catholic things, support the Church even, but vacillate between passive non-involvement and active involvement depending on what negative things have been in the news lately about the Church? Or would there be some point at which your loyalty is really and truly ended?
What if you were proudly “atheist” in the sense of sneering at christianity while being superstitious with your yoga, hollywood version of Zen, vague notions of chakras, tarot and horoscope enthusiasm etc. What if those were not enough and your main focus ended up being politics, the Democrat party, the Wokeist creed?
What if you heard disturbing stories of pedophilia going on with the Democrats? Pizzagate? Would you say hey, that’s just like that stuff I left the Catholic church over. Oh no. Or would you sneer, scoff, have only contempt for such notions?
What if you heard about Epstein, all those flights, all those politicians and movie stars, but nobody goes to jail? You just spent the past 4 years under Democrats and nobody goes to jail….
Then you hear about P-Diddy (what’s the P really for? Is Diddy short for Diddler?) All those celebrities preaching the same thing you preach. Uh…
So hundreds of thousands of women PER STATE refrained from voting. 140,000 here, 450,000 there.
“I abstain” right? I do not like how you are administering our Church. I disapprove.
Will they take the cross down from the wall? Or do they say “I still believe”?
NONE of this changes your mind on politicization of everything, of Wokeism, you just need to see the right face with the right, smooth delivery (bring back Obama somehow! That’d be awesome!) and have any problems banished to the periphery of your consciousness – just don’t rub my face in it? Will these hundreds of thousands who, by their abstinence, most definitely made a statement, come crowding back?
I am trying really really hard not to be transformed into a misogynist. My values are Star Trek Next Generation. That said, I keep having the same interaction with the women in my life.
Some heavily politicized bit of media plays, I take maybe 30 seconds to tear it to shreds. I’m not angry. I’m not raising my voice. Most of the time I am joking, laughing at it as I point out its obviously illogical and immoral underlying principles or choplogic nonsense. I am not constantly doing it, just every once in a while.
Nevertheless, the response is “Don’t get political!!!!!!”
It is ok to be bombarded by this political shit and sit quietly on our hands. It is NOT ok to laugh at it or poke holes in it. If I do that, I’m “getting political”
After the Trump victory, the corporate trainer whose favorite part of training is DEI switched her greenscreen background in Teams to a rainbow and one of those overly trite “think good thoughts” type messages. Could I respond by pointing out what she’s doing, what it means, poke a few holes in the belief system, point out why her candidate lost? (you’ve been insufferable mean-spirited killjoys for a decade?) Eh, I’d be super inappropriate and Making It Political. But the political messaging in her background isn’t.
I could respond by putting an american flag as my background, couldn’t I? That’d be the symbol for freedom of speech, leave each other alone, political plurality, people of different political opinions having to talk with each other, honestly debate, live respectfully with each other. You know, nazi kkk right wing stuff. Stochastic terrorism – I would never know which radical who DOES not believe in any of those far right wing fascist things would come after me and in what way at any time in my future with the company. That’s the deal – I tie my hands behind my back and stand still while they punch and dance around me like Mohammed Ali – to make it fair.
Even though SHE opened the door, politicized it.
Even cracking a deflating joke is offensive, “making it political”
Incessant full-spectrum messaging on the other side is NOT political. just what’s right. The way things are.
IF I could have spoken up during the DEI training and said a few things to point out that the basic precepts of the training were
1. You have no soul
2. You have a soul, but you have no knowledge or control over it, Experts who never even met you do, and that is why we rule over you
3. Your “uniqueness” is being part of a blob of millions ie your identity is that of membership in a blob not a unique individualafter the ensuing meltdown to follow, I would have simply stated “Look, part of growing up and being an adult in the united states is realizing, and living with, the fact that other people EAT your sacred cows …WITH KETCHUP and will gladly do so in front of you. Being able to manage your emotions and live and let live under such conditions is part of becoming an actual adult”
Oh, and the other trainer, the black haired bespectacled be-peirced tattooed trainer stated the other day “The only way we learn is by repetition or extreme, intense emotion”
Uh… certainly I’ve seen that play out as a belief for the past 10 years. I refrained from countering with, you know, how people learn.
This morning, all that I heard was propaganda, to convince me that Donald Trump doesn’t know what he is doing and the proof is that all his appointments are ignorant, idiots, not qualified.
Those criticks forgot that in a democracy the majority, (overwhelming), get to tells the minority what will happen and will sets the agenda.
Opposing the will of the majority is a crime/revolution.

He’s a Deep State sellout, a complete moron, which is how he’s a billionaire in the world’s biggest shark tank.
Okay, not SOLD on this, but look at the field: He posts Rubio as the De-facto Bolton. Mini me. 1) Gives NeoCons something to get them off his back. You win! 2) Rubio is from Florida 2b) Florida then appoints a Rubio 2c) Anyone they want 2d) DeSantis owns Florida, an R+14 state. 2e) Rubio the Neocon is out of Congress. 2f) WHERE? Out of the SENATE.
3) Gaetz is out of the House. 3a) “McConnell” was nuking him to keep him from taking out another McCarthy, who ss f—ked all the Republicans like A DAY AFTER promising he wouldn’t. 3b) Gaetz is so evil that the naughty-gram the House was releasing on him won’t be released. 3c) Proving it’s not a crime. At all. Not even a bit, or they would refer to FBI. 3d) Pulling out of ring-fencing in the House, a guy who will broadside and sink all Congress like a boss, well then Congress loses a fighter.
4) Gaetz is from Florida. 4a, 4b, and 4c, ditto, above. Trump now has TWO more Congressmen. Trading pawns into Queens.
5) What happens to Mini-me, Rubio? 5b) Rubio does everything he’s told or he gets 3 Scaramuccis and is FIRED. …Leaving ZERO Rubios and zero neocons.
…So Trump is so stupid he traded a Senator for a dipsh—t he can fire, leaving no Neocons in Staff?
SOLD!!!
Etc. Much as it seems like, I am NOT inside baseball, I am 30,000ft view. A ton of such things are happening right now, not that some aren’t indeed stupid and wrong. Just think through their immense complexity. K?

Elon Musk said he will launch a leaderboard to track ‘insanely dumb’ government spending, and business leaders are weighing in
Alice Tecotzky Nov 13, 2024, 9:07 AM PSTAs of Wednesday morning, the post had garnered more than 26 million views, 18,000 comments, and 50,000 retweets. Business leaders were among those reacting to the news and, in some cases, offering suggestions.
Ryan Petersen, CEO of the supply-chain management company Flexport, responded on X asking where to submit programs to cut.
“The US Department of Agriculture runs a foreign language school. I took a Chinese class there. Why does the department of agriculture need to teach Chinese? We have community colleges for that right?” Petersen wrote. The USDA does not offer typical foreign language classes but provides access to language-learning tools through an internal platform.
Bill Ackman, a billionaire hedge fund manager and an outspoken Trump supporter, reposted Musk’s announcement of a leaderboard on X, writing, “It’s becoming exciting again to be an American.” Shaun Maguire, another outspoken Trump supporter and a partner at the venture-capital firm Sequoia Capital, retweeted the president-elect’s announcement that Musk would head DOGE and called it “one of the greatest things I’ve ever read.”
The responses to Musk’s announcement and general appointment as head of DOGE stretched across the partisan tech aisle. Aaron Levie, CEO of the cloud computing company Box, who endorsed Harris, responded to Trump’s announcement of the agency on X.
“There’s a significant opportunity to make the government more capable of delivering for Americans, and ironically it will actually cost less not more,” he wrote.
jb-hb imagine one were to point out the The Enlightenment was planted, sprouted and bloomed in the middle of the Spanish Inquistion. Let someone suggest that the purpose of The Enlightenment was to produce a managerial class that would be amoral enough to not question the human cost of the bounty being extracted from the new world. Consider that now almost the entire human population of the earth has been armed with modern weaponry and the prospects for rapine behavior are greatly reduced. To what degree has western culture become an amoral managerial class? Looking solely at supply and demand would you predict that the size of the western managerial class would be reduced? Less to steal, less to manage. Armed with such a perspective would you still seek a place in the managerial class?
To be less than subtle, The Enlightenment embodies the antithesis of the human social contract.The glorification of the individual, the elevation of the self within the family, the elevation of the personal family above the community, the elevation of satisfying personal desire above courage, honor, respsonsibility and justice is the cornerstone of The Enlightenment. A moment of crass observation, The Glorification of The Selfish Gene. The belief that human life can exist after it has destroyed the cooperative microbiome that is the origin and sustainer of life on this planet.
I will wager that you would never hear such claptrap among graduates and afficianados of Dale Carnegie.
Armed with such a perspective would you still seek a place in the managerial class?When the realization came that the socio/economic, political hierarchy of The Vatican had nothing to do with the philosopy of the Nazarean many an incongruence was resolved. As a cradle catholic, heretic, laborer and asocial outcast the managerial class never held any appeal. I do my best not to harbor any ill will for those held captive and only advise, “Be careful what you wish for”.
i knew that eventually you and i would find a harmonious interval. I too struggle with misogyny for the moment. Different burr in the saddle blankets, similar discomfort.
D Rich, the 1963 coup in Vietnam is another example of honorable men being sacrificed. Protests were anticipated following the CIA coup that deposed Diem. A squad was formed to put down the expected protests. The men that were sent to end the protests were successful in carrying out their mission and training. Their reward was ignomy. I was twelve, i will never forget the riots in Saigon. Or the burning monk.
Spoiled weak boys sending honorable men to destruction.
Here we go again.Just thinking aloud here in response – I suppose the Enlightenment intrinsically functioned as part of a system that had families, traditions, and religion functioning alongside it.
Kind of like how you can have battery driven vehicles in an oil-powered economy or socialistic policies in a capitalist society – okay, we want these things, we want you to have these things, but they are not monocultures. They existed as part of a system.
Or you can have science IF people are moral and therefore truthful and have integrity, but you can’t have science BY doing science. Clearly – see 2020. There was some deeper base-layer upon which real science depended. Science was not the foundation and cannot be.
I’ve seen a lot of blame cast on the Enlightenment from various corners including the interesting neo-monarchists I’ve come across lately (at least they have different ideas…) not to mention Sargon of Akkad but I haven’t delved too deeply yet. Somehow I feel there’s something missing in the analysis but I am going to have to take a deep dive one of these days soon.

Trump expected to select Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS
The choice will roil many public health experts after his years of touting debunked claims that vaccines cause autism.Kennedy, 70, may still face a steep slope to confirmation after his years of touting debunked claims that vaccines cause autism,
written a book accusing former National Institutes of Health official Anthony Fauci of conspiring with tech mogul Bill Gates and drugmakers to sell Covid-19 vaccines and said regulatory officials are industry puppets who should be removed.My Lai Massacre Coverup
Well thank goodness Smedley, Eisenhower and JFK did not warn Americans over a span of 50 years that US military adventurism was a racket, sending “our boys” off to slaughter and be slaughtered.
What would Americans do with that information had they been told the truth? Oh wait.
1945-1975 Vietnam
1979-2021 Afghanistan
1979-2024 IraqThe Global War on Terror sponsored by the Rogue Terrorist Nation USA- we kill for profit AND pleasure.
Nothing fucking noble about that or any facet of the US military. Fuck all that murder by the US military government incorporated.KILL ANYTHING THAT MOVES– The Real American War in Vietnam
by Nick TurseThere were thousands of My Lai massacres during Vietnam, including chemical warfare and a robust torture program. Same in Iraq and Afghanistan. Plenty of Heroin in Nam and Afghan too.
The entire US military and Govt are a fucking disgrace- those medals are worse than Iron Crosses.
Do not mistake kindness for weakness- or battlefield heroics for a just cause. Stolen valor and disgraceful valor in an unjust war. I’m sure lots of Israeli soldiers are getting medals right now.https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/14/politics/robert-f-kennedy-donald-trump-hhs/index.html
Trump picks Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to be his secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services

Updated 4:12 PM EST, Thu November 14, 2024Kennedy has also floated significant employee turnover at public health agencies. He said in an interview with MSNBC that he would cut workers in “the nutrition departments” at the US Food and Drug Administration. While speaking at a conference in Arizona on Saturday, Kennedy proposed replacing 600 officials at the National Institutes of Health with hand-picked staff.
In an interview with NPR News following the election, Kennedy laid out his areas of focus in Trump’s administration.
“President Trump has given me three instructions,” Kennedy said. “He wants the corruption and the conflicts out of the regulatory agencies. He wants to return the agencies to the gold standard, empirically-based, evidence-based, science and medicine that they were once famous for. And he wants to end the chronic disease epidemic with measurable impacts on a diminishment of chronic disease within two years.”

I am thrilled to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS).
For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in deception, misinformation, and disinformation when it comes to Public Health.
The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country.
Mr. Kennedy will restore these Agencies to the traditions of Gold Standard Scientific Research, and beacons of Transparency, to end the Chronic Disease epidemic, and to Make America Great and Healthy Again!
