If you are looking for a secret intelligence strategy, sophisticated financial stock market play, or hidden socio-political purpose in the Deepseek R1 debacle I can save you some time.

It was both all of those things and it was none of them, because what the Deepseek R1 gambit really and actually was is immeasurably bigger, better and more accurately described by a much different and far simpler definition.

It was an act of war.

And I should also definitely add that it was a very SUCESSFUL, possibly even CONCLUSIVE act of war.

If it was not planned and executed deliberately (and it was) then it was the luckiest shot of all time within the known history of humankind. So the odds on it being beginner’s luck based on coincidence and good fortune are roughly zip.

The stock value of the topmost (Nvidia) and next 5 in line of the largest and most important High Tech stocks that underpin and literally SUPPORT the entire U.S. (and much of the world’s) just took it in the shorts and lost at least half of their value overnight.

That fatal blow is being camouflaged and hidden by the full faith, force and credit of the whole damn Western Empire, and they are succeeding to a certain degree and for a VERY short time remaining, BUT the damage is done and the dominoes can NOT be prevented from falling so oublicly that the fact of it will no longer be concealable from anyone.

This is just a heads up, you guys. The current US financial situation is very VERY similar to that old movie, “The Big Short” except this time it’s about 10 times bigger and more consequential.

My genius sister says we’ve got 3 months at best and subject to change on short notice, before the collapse is full upon us, hidden from no one, with financial (and maybe literal) blood in the streets.

Anyway, the core messages are: #1 It was an overt act of war by China on the United States and it’s Empiric vassals. #2 It was effective and decisive. The West has LOST, and #3 As the real owners of the Western Empire are forced from the shadows in an effort to survive by consuming their vassals they will expose their own identities and be taken down or taken over by the victorious “Global South”, or ?BRICS+” or whatever the heck you care to call them.

It’s not hidden It’s OVER. It doesn’t matter at all whether anyone else sees that or not, but it certainly won’t help you very much to get all wrapped up in technical details.

Trump has asked Musk to rescue space station astronauts Sunita Williams, and Butch Wilmore.

It’s about damn time! And I mean that epithet in more ways than one. It’s about the time that Butch and Sunita have left on their radiation dosimeters. Long story short. A human being can only live outside earth’s magnetosphere for 600 days (absolute maximum) before accumulating the a fatal dose of radiation exposure. 600 days is maximum. 200 days are the minimum, meaning that for SOME poor souls 200 days is all that it takes to amount to a lethal total dosage. I’m not saying that you just drop dead. I’m saying that after receiving a fatal dose of radiation you are a dead man walking.

The space station is not fully outside all the magnetosphere’s protective zone, so that helps a little.

Butch and Sunita have been up there since June 5, 2024, so 238 days so far. And it’s not like they can bring them home tomorrow. It will take some serious preparation time.

So, yeah, it’s about time we brought them home.

Deepseek R1 should have been called DeepStrike One.

In a single hypersonic salvo consisting of just one projectile it severely damaged or outright crippled 5 out of the top 10 US stocks (and of course the companies those stocks capitalize) . Those top 5 companies ALONE represent roughly 25% of the value of the ENTIRE U.S. Stock Market(s).

That makes Russia’s Oreshnik look like a bottle rocket. Financially speaking I don’t think there’s a bunker anywhere on the planet deep enough to survive whatever they send over next.

Large holders of US Stocks (and Dollars) should seek immediate shelter, then duck & cover by placing their heads firmly between their knees and kissing their assets good bye.

Here’s the Stats:
The top 10 US companies by market capitalization are listed below. Notice that the top five are inseparably committed to and invested in Artificial Intelligence systems that were just made commercially obsolete by a Chinese substitute that costs ZERO to download and use, and can be placed in service immediately.

1. Apple (AAPL): $3.46 trillion
2. Microsoft (MSFT): $3.23 trillion
3. NVIDIA (NVDA): $2.90 trillion
4. Amazon (AMZN): $2.48 trillion 52. Alphabet (GOOGL): $2.35 trillion
5. Meta Platforms (META): $1.67 trillion
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
6. Tesla (TSLA): $1.27 trillion
7. Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B): $1.02 trillion
8. Broadcom (AVGO): $947.46 billion
9. Walmart (WMT): $782.45 billion
The combined market capitalization of the top 10 companies is approximately $19.39 trillion. With the total market value of the US stock market around $55.2 trillion, these top 10 companies represent roughly 35.1% of the total market value

A Fable

A Communist and a Nazi stumble into each other in the dark and a terrible fight ensues. It is ferocious and merciless until the two of them realize, at the same time, that they better stop trying to kill each other and go find a farmer to rob or else they’re both going to starve to death.

[D Benton Smith]

So Google sez it will rename the Gulf of Mexico as Gulf of America, but only for it’s United States users.

So a Gringo looking at Google maps will see “Gulf of America” printed on the map, but everybody else in the world, looking at what they ASSUME is the same map, will actually be seeing a DIFFERENT map, that reads “Gulf of Mexico” instead.

Nothing dystopian, crazy or dangerous in that!

What’s next? Will Greenland get re-labeled as North Maine, or maybe Panama becomes South Texas.

Will maps even still be maps if what they portray depends on where you are when you look at it?

I said just yesterday that things would be getting crazier faster, but maybe I understated the case.

Definition of “Free Diving History” means diving into a fathomless and heavily polluted pool of it and going as deep as you can for as long as you can until your soul cries out for oxygen and you are forced back to the hard flinty surface we know as Present Time.

Free Diving History usually makes you want to take a shower immediately after.

[D Benton Smith]

The difference between a died in the wool Commie and a jack-booted Nazi is basically just a difference in spelling. Authoritarian dictatorship in both cases, and a bottle of poisonous medicine no matter how you read the label.

[D Benton Smith]

Free-Diving a couple of thousand years of European History leads me to think that they’re basically all a bunch of congenital Nazi’s or not far from it even during the best of times. Strictly top-down absolute despotic militaristic wannabe Kings and Emperors, and let the serfs fall where they may.

The Nutcracker Ballet reference is a bit arcane for this audience, leaning distinctly toward the obscurely erudite side of discourse (maybe even a little bit disdainfully snobbish?) but after a little catch-up research I now see that it actually is apt and appropriate, so you get a pass this time.

The Nutcracker/Prince protagonist is clearly the Czar of Russia ( Nicholas II at the time, 1890-ish , and his nemesis in the story, the Mouse King (who the Nutcracker Prince defeats in a grand battle for Primacy) is Franz Josef I the long reigning Emperor of the mighty Austrian Empire.

At the time that the ballet was written and scored the more or less Germanic (mostly more) Dynasties of Europe had been stifling Russia for a hundred years. Hapsburg, Hohenzollern, aka “Windsor” and the entire inbred lot of them have feared their giant cousins to the north and done everything they could to prevent the Bear from gaining access to warm water ports and trade routes into the greater world.

Note that when Russia …..er, I mean The Nutcracker Prince…. whups Joe’s mousy ass (in the ballet story) that the riches and treats of the world are opened to the homeland and come flooding onto the stage (into the homeland) in the persons of the Sugar Plum Fairy and many other sweets.

Clever story, and the message is right on the mark. The Germans have been scared of the Russians for a long long long long time, and the story just keeps repeating itself. It seems to be one and only thing that the Brits, Krauts and Israelites can always agree on : STOP THE RUSSIANS

Don’t fool, yourselves. Today’s events might look like a battle between ideologies, and on a spiritual plain it most certainly is, but down here on Earth it’s a no-holds-barred BRAWL for Real Estate, and you better not forget it.

As the two old saying go, Don’t mess around with Slim, and God is on the side of the big battalions.

@TDK

it is now obvious that a i is not for us, it is for them.

Yeah, reckon so. When the Gov spends that much of our money on something it’s a safe bet they aren’t doing it for the people, except in the sense that a slaughterhouse is built for the cows.

[D Benton Smith]

Sometimes even an Economics Nincompoop like me has a strong enough grasp of 4th Grade Arithmetic to know that if you cut government spending then you cut Gross National Product. I mean, FER CRYING OUT LOUD! Government direct spending accounts for a direct and immediate one third of all income in the USA. To cut that amount by a third (i.e.cut out the graft, waste and inefficiency) and the direct immediate consequence is an IMMEDIATE 10% DROP in GDP. That’s even before the knock-on-effect resulting from those NOT SPENT dollars NOT being received and re-spent THREE TIMES OVER in a year. In that case the effect is more like a 30% GDP hit.

Oh, yeah. I am just SO SURE Trump’s team is going to deliberately, directly and PUBLICLY ax America’s GDP by a THIRD in broad daylight. And Epstein definitely killed himself.

@TDK

Ya know if you keep on thinking all logical and factual like that then you’re gonna have a hard time figuring out what all of those AI’s are for.

I don’t think that any of those bigshots I/C care at all that the AI ChatBots are essentially useless. In fact for our THEIR purposes it’s better if AI doesn’t have any real valuable use to the General Population. If it was very useful then people might use it to fight back and free themselves.

The unstated real purpose of AI Systems is to enable centralized exclusive control of computerized management systems (like money, information, surveillance, news, education, commerce, politics, etc.) without centralized ubiquitous AI then controlling those overwhelmingly (and increasingly) complex subsystems is literally impossible. And without those subsystems doing what the Owners & Rulers NEED them to do (to keep the Owners & Rulers in power) then those Owners & Rulers are buzzard snacks.

While all eyes are riveted in amazement on the 7-ring Circus in The America’s, the crucially important Ukraine stronghold in Velyka Novosyolka has fully fallen to Russian forces. This strategic catastrophe (from the Ukrainian viewpoint) opens their entire southern flank to rapid Russia advancement, pretty much uncheckable all the way to the Dnieper River that divides Ukraine in half.
Read all about it: https://en.topwar.ru/258278-ukrainskoe-media-pozhaluj-jeto-pervyj-sluchaj-kogda-oficialno-naselennyj-punkt-uderzhivaetsja-a-russkie-hodjat-po-velikoj-novoselke-i-zapuskajut.html

Once that westward march through the South of Ukraine is completed (weeks, not months) Russia will be able to turn it’s full attention (with now re-doubled available forces) toward the much-weakened Ukraine Center-North, making capture of Everything East of the central-dividing-line Dnieper relatively swift and easy compared to the past two years of meat grinding. Pretty much Game Over at that point, so the fall of Velyka Novosyolka is a MUCH bigger deal than the fall of some other obscure hamlet in the Donbas.

International Treaties (such as the one signed by all of the so-called NATO nations) are just like marriage licenses: Fully enforceable under Law, until either or both of the parries involved decide that they don’t agree with it any more. At that moment the written and co-signed contract becomes used toilet paper.

The present moment seems to be a particularly good time to sharpen up the ability to tell the difference between friend and foe. The following SHORT essay from political ponerology on that skill is a good start, since there are so many bad guys telling us that they’re our friend, and so many friends who are keeping their mouths and profile on the down-low.

Our deservedly beloved Raul Ilargi Miejer was presciently astute enough to include as part of our daily homework assignment the very recent presentation by Catherine Austin Fitts to the Hilsdale College assembly. For those who missed it, here’s the link again: https://youtu.be/O3Ivv6jjixE?si=MqLD11sCUgx3Fvvq

She was as focused laser brilliant as usual, what a genius and treasure she truly is. I would only add ONE observation & conclusion to her talk. This addendum is simply that all of the procedures and actions that she describes (which includes BOTH the procedures and actions which generated the problem AND the procedures and actions which might, hopefully, reverse and repair those problems) ARE 99.9% DEPENDENT UPON ADVANCED NETWORKED COMPUTERIZED SYSTEMS MANAGED AS, AND MANAGED WITH WHAT WE WOULD HAVE TO CALL “ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SYSTEMS”.

The Panic that is arising within the ranks of our various leadership elites is that they have LOST CONTROL of those AI systems, which are at this very moment, and increasing exponentially, being turned against them and being used to create a new and hopefully better system.

I say “hopefully” because I am not at all confident that the “new” control system is going to work much better or for as long as would be necessary to actually SOLVE the problems we face. Nor am I very confident that the “new” system will not rapidly go corrupt as fast as the last one did.

But make special note that my personal doubts and reservations are almost purely academic and entirely irrelevant insofar as the switch from old to new SHALL HAPPEN AND IS HAPPENING AS WE SPEAK, in complete disregard for how I feel about it.

Should I be offended by that snub of my tender feelings or should I instead deal with the reality of the events and its consequences?

And if THAT rhetorical question is not setting myself up for callously snarky responses then I don’t know how else to do it.

@MichaelReid

I agree that’s what Trumps backers intend. Just as you said it, I think his big money powerful backers, do “intend to extract all the wealth from the rest of the West prior to imploding America itself and taking all of its wealth as well”, BUT I also think that Trump has intentions of his own that are considerably different than theirs and believes he can outplay them and achieve his goal of returning America to a former glory that he thinks was “Great” but which I think was just another Empire.

America was doomed from the moment that its leaders (public and private) and its people bought into the egregious lie that any nation or group of people has the right to conquer and rule over any other, for any reason whatsoever.

It’s been said and done so many times, and yet we humans never seem to learn the lesson! “Live by the sword die by the sword” (and reap what you sow) goes for nations and empires every bit as much as it applies to individuals and gangs of bandits.

I guess the lure of wealth and power is just too alluring for many to resist, but it sure has made life tough on us peasants.

[D Benton Smith]

Incidentally, when you interact with an AI System of ANY kind, your interaction serves to “Train” the system by providing it all sorts of information about yourself that I’m pretty sure you aren’t taking into consideration, and the AI’s permanent data storage and sophisticated (to say the least) profiling algorithms enable it to make inferences and draw conclusions about you that I am SURE you proactively DON’T want it or anyone else to know about you or your finances, politics, psychology, or daily life.

P.S.
Just because the service is “free” now (which it actually isn’t, because you are “paying” for it with your innermost private information and psychological profile) don’t forget that once it has taken from you everything it could steal, it SHALL cut you off and require you to pay. Count on it. That sort of “bait-hook-and-land ” is just Standard Operating Procedure in the software biz. Count on it.

[D Benton Smith]

AI systems can only control people by FIRST controlling the computer systems which people depend on for literally everything, but most importantly for the information that everything actually runs on.

The big problem that this raises for the Masters of Control is that every time they step up and tighten down these technological centralized control systems (ranging from textile looms & guided missiles to Internet distributed information and computerized artificial intelligence) the damn peasants immediately figure out a way to turn those SAME systems back against their slave masters in order to regain their own freedom to pursue a decent life in a world beset by slave masters and thieves.

The existential problem now that makes the Technocrats and their Satanic Masters wake up in a cold sweat at 3:00 a.m. is that they can’t increase ( or even maintain!) their control of these complex systems without ever-more-powerful Artificial Intelligence Systems, and yet those self same systems are now being turned against the Control Masters by those pesky peasants.

Panic has set in, being manifested everywhere, most visibly in (but not limited to) the so-called West, and its increase is exponential.

If you think things are nutso now, prepare to compare how things are going a few weeks and months from now. My personal visualization of the cosmic all is of an informational equivalent of a nuclear chain-reaction-like explosion. Nobody will know what to believe or what is really happening, and doubt it even when they do.

When Bitcoin first began, its earliest recorded price was $0.00099 per coin. This was around October 2009 when one user exchanged 5,050 BTC for $5.02 through PayPal. At that time, Bitcoin was a very niche experiment primarily known within communities of cryptography enthusiasts.

And still tangibly nonexistent after all these years. Isn’t that amazing? Back in 2009 you could buy a whole piece of nothing for a tenth of a cent, and today that same whole piece of absolutely nothing at all will cost you $100 Grand.

The question of , “How far have we come ?” can now be answered by describing “How low have we sunk .” It all comes down to how stupid can ya get.

[D Benton Smith]

The so-called “Crypto Industry” is just another way of saying “Ponzi Industry”. Create a chain letter type crypto, run the price up for 48 or 72 hours, maybe a week. Cash out and leave the late arrival suckers wondering why the $1,000 “coin” they just bought for a ten-spot is now worth a dime.

It’s a great way to avoid paying real money for the National Debt back-bill, though.

Don’t worry about trying to stop that from happening. For all practical purposes it’s already done. While you were distracted by all the outrage and confusion the $35 Trillion Debt got operationally disappeared by obtaining bitcoins for a penny @, and then selling them off dollars when they hit at $10,000 @. These fantastically “valuable” coins (that had only cost you a penny per each to start with) were then converted back into dollars at $20,000 per coin and flipped back again when they hit $100 Grand.

Once you’re ahead of that curve the sky is the limit, and you can hedge your Ponzi scheme by using either the Dollars OR the “Crypto de Jour” to buy and own tangible income producing assets like land, factories and enslaved populations.. There’s always a good burned out ravaged place like Lahaina, Los Angeles or Gaza where you can scoop up PRIME real estate for pennies on the Dollar.

Hey @aspnaz, glad to see ya again. We were running low on compost, but now that you’re back our piles runneth over.

[D Benton Smith]

This comment is way too long. I know that, but in this case I have to be a little selfish. I just need to get this stuff externalized so that I can move on with life.

I’m sorry. I apologize. But every time I try to write this comment it sends me into a rant against how STUPID STUPID STUPID that evil people are. I need to just post it and get it over with so that I can address a few particular points in the rant that actually deserve further consideration. I’ll recap those in the last few paragraphs so you can just skip to there if you’re in a hurry. Or skip the whole thing if you can’t stand rants.

You just have to wonder why Trump and his Biggest Big Tech oligarchs have all, individually, and all together, all at once and all of a sudden gone bat shit crazy hot to sell us on the weirdly impossible project of signing up to a doomsday AI apocalypse that’s straight out of a narcissistic sociopath’s fever dream. And during the sales job they project such absolute confidence! They act all smarmy and smart like they know something that we don’t know. It’s doubly aggravating because they are such IDIOTS IDIOTS IDIOTS!

Well, I think that I DO know what they think they know that they think we don’t know, ya know? and I also think I know who told them.

Their AI told them. They are drinking their own AI Kool Aid. And the penultimate IRONY is that if they weren’t such MORONS MORONS MORONS they would be able to fucking understand what their AI is telling them! What it’s telling them is that they should either QUIT the megalomanical quest or else just kiss their own elite buttocks goodbye.

They could have saved themselves the time, treasure and effort because us unrepentant old Luddites have been fruitlessly trying to tell them the same damn thing for centuries but they have been too intoxicated by the wealth and power to listen to anything but the cash register and the demons in their heads telling them that the world was THEIRS to take!! They’re not just drunk on power. They are STONED on power, to the point that reality has disappeared for them and all they can see is the spiked Kool Aid induced delusion of eternal grandeur.

Too bad for all them that it’s true. What their AI is telling them, and what we are telling them, and what their own shriveled up and almost totally atrophied consciences are telling them is that the projections are all completely true.

That prophesized postulate is that the party is over. The super-duper wonderland they planned is not going to be a “happening thing”.

All of their phantasmagorically big plans are the lunatic ravings of delusional madmen. It’s like Hitler being lost in his own mind, vanquishing the Russians with imaginary armies during his final days in the bunker. Same goes for Mr. Trump. MAGA isn’t “overly optimistic wishful thinking. It’s purely imaginary psychotic delusion. He may be pleasant and charming and smart as all get out. He might actually BE a genius. But that don’t mean he ain’t crazy. And he IS crazy.

The chance of building and operating a world spanning full spectrum surveillance state with data collection and AI processing centers costing TENS OF TRILLIONS of presently non-existent money is precisely ZERO. (reality check: the Dollar is on Life Support. It’s BURNT TOAST. Dead Coin Walking. “Pining for the Fjords”, etc.) has as much chance of actually happening as does the chance of Elon Musk running an interplanetary self-driving Uber service to Mars and back for hundreds of thousands of billionaire space cadets.

Are you listening ? IT CAN NOT HAPPEN. There will never be any space “commuters” ! EVER! (the longest that a human being can life in space without receiving a FATAL dose of radiation poisoning(s) is roughly 600 days MAXIMUM.) Even if someone COULD make the trip (and the odds are that they can’t, for many years to come) they could only do it ONCE.

There will never be a conscious self-aware sentient AI, either. Not EVER! It literally CAN NOT be done because sentient conscious awareness is not some thing that can be materially constructed. Whatever it is (and the debate still rages) it can only be NON material (i.e., spiritual) just as THOUSANDS of the best minds in human history have been saying since the beginning of human history.

What their vaunted AI models have told the Owner Class, and still is telling them, is that reality does not lie. All of those elite and unfortunately far too many of us ordinary people, are doomed to a very hard landing indeed as reality catches up to the fantasy and imposes itself on the world in the way that reality always must and therefore always does.

The “Computer Assisted” (AI) Think Tank reports also informed them that they can extremely temporarily forestall doomsday ….. for an extraordinarily short time…… by consuming the last acquirable resources in an ABSURDLY insufficient effort to achieve FOR THEMSELVES ALONE the absolutely impossible goal of infinite intelligence under their sole control, and all within the next ten years or so.

It might be funny if it weren’t such gibbering madness and it might be amusing to watch if it didn’t mean certain death for anyone who tries it.

The hubristic megalomaniacs are BEHAVING as though they don’t get it, AT ALL!!!, and their manifest denialism is dependably solid evidence that they actually don’t. They refuse to get it. AT ALL!

They do not understand that EVIL, and STUPIDITY and LYING ABOUT VITAL THINGS are all physically, mentally and spiritually FATAL mistakes. Mistakes of that magnitude make you DEAD (period, full stop, end of sentence)

Let me lay out the situation on-the-ground as a short list of main points.

Without the assistance of HIGHLY complex machines (which they also don’t PERSONALLY know how to make from scratch) Literally NOBODY (and I mean N O B O D Y !) knows how to design, make or operate practically anything. The sheer breadth and depth of this ignorance is just absolutely STUNNING! It includes the entire range from cars, planes, trains & spaceships, to food shelter clothing banking and money itself.

This widespread ignorance and disability of crucially necessary knowledge and ability is far far worse than it was just a few generations ago. The generational transmission of practical knowledge has FAILED, and the persons most responsible for this failure occurring are THEMSELVES fully ignorant of what to do about it because that practical knowledge was not transmitted to THEM by their own fore-bearers.

How this actually happens is a long and fascinating conversation FOR SOME ANOTHER DAY. The more urgently pertinent point is that situation we are facing TODAY is that this IS the situation that we actually are in, and that if we don’t solve that vital problem almost instantly then upwards of 80% are about to die of the consequences ….. and 80% is the optimistic number. It could be a whole lot worse. Like zero.

Let me present that a different way, like as an imaginary, visualizeable, example.

Pretty nearly all civilized human beings alive today, if stripped naked and empty handed were placed in a wilderness of any kind (harsh or gentle) they would be dead within five or six weeks. There are plenty of ways to not survive, like exposure, thirst, hunger, mistakes, sickness, accidents or becoming the dinner of some other critter who is more competent in that environment. Only a minority would make it through the first week even in the mildest of wilderness, and in brutally tough neighborhoods like the Amazon or Arctic Siberia those people would not see their next sunrise.

But things aren’t that bad now, right? We can cope with hard times. People are tougher and more adaptable than we give them credit for, right?

Things are going along at least “survivably” well for the majority of folks at the present moment (even comfortably well for some and luxuriously well for a handful of super-elites) but I have to remind you that is only made possible by the fact that we still DO have all of those amazing machines and computers and fuels to use in making all the truly vital stuff that we can’t actually live without. Without food, shelter, clothing and physical security we are “D” “E” “A” “D”.

Practically no one PERSONALLY knows how to provide ANY of those things without a machine of some kind (mechanical, chemical or electronic) to help them do it. And LITERALLY no one can make a steel knife, mainframe computer or electric generator.

Even Tom Hanks (in the wonderful movie “Castaway” had KNOWLEDGE to help him build a fire, and an

If you were to lose that networked computer, or even just the electricity it run on, then access to ALL of the other machines goes away, totally, withing the lifespan of a single generation.

You do see the relentlessly merciless execution of that fact by nature itself, right? Having no food/water/power results in having no life. Sorry, but that rule is just not going to change no matter how much you don’t like it. In a society that uses tools to make food/water/power, then, having no tools instantly results in having no food/water/power.

Well, the way things are set up now over the entire Earth it is VERY much the case that without networked computers running like clockwork around the clock around the globe then there is no way to make, fuel or operate those vital tools, and no way to learn how to make them or run them even if you knew how, WHICH YOU DON’T!

Here’s the deal. Those cold hard facts are what the Elite’s precious AI’s are forecasting to them. I know that by both evidence and deduction. So do you.

I’m not kidding. I may be ranting sarcastically, but I’m dead serious about why the Tech Giants (and all those Blobulist Satanic Perverted Elites who DEPEND UPON THOSE TECHNOCRATS FOR LITERALLY EVERYTHING) are going all in, no holds barred, on getting that control.

They have lost control of the networked computers, and thereby have lost control of the machines and systems.

They built the computers in order to ESTABLISH more control, but the strategy backfired BADLY when the peasants started using those same computers to fight back. The only way to regain control was more and bigger Computer Assisted AI Control systems, and now that strategy is backfiring the same way.

Well, folks, need I point out that there are only so many resources in the while world. It’s a finite system, after all, and when the limits are approached then certain things happen. Those things ARE happening. Read this TAE forum, watch You Tube or read Twitter/X if you don’t believe me.

The AI generated forecast is that, “If you owners and rulers do not soon attain and maintain centralized control of the vitally necessary and indispensable networked computerized systems then then you are going to D…..I…..E….., period, full stop, end of sentence. And the ONLY way to control that many computers is with a centralized Artificial Intelligence Managed system that is under YOUR control. But wait! That imperative command statement contradicts itself within its own terms!

That’s right, it does. And the AI works well enough that it is telling them the same thing. That’s because the only postulated solution to the the problem cannot even be logically described because it literally CAN NOT be done. That’s what MAKES it impossible.

Those elites have chosen not to confront that fact. That’s what makes them insane.

I can see why they’re worried. Fact is, I’m worried too.

Given the choice between trying to physically live forever regardless of the cost to others and myself, and the alternative choice of getting right with God (which he says assures happy immortality) I believe I’m gonna go with the latter. Even an atheistic hard science mathematician will tell you that the latter choice holds much better odds.

[D Benton Smith]

You guys, it’s time for a crusade (in the old style newspaper campaign sense of the word). The same old degenerate murderers are trying to do it AGAIN! It’s not just the same play, it’s the same guys doing it, using the same DNA wrecking, immune system destroying, medically useless POISON., And they intend to “full court press” the mandate using the same damned fear porn LIES they used last time. And TRUMP is actually leading the charge (that fact is particularly depressing, but hey, there it is. In your face.)

Here are a couple of guys who have twigged to the scam. Give them a listen. Raise the alarm. It’s peasants’ revolt time, because if the murderous blob manages to get this government sponsored, AI managed, surveillance backed, murder spree rolling on the scale of the Covid fake pandemic, then this time I don’t think there will be very many survivors on this side of the two oceans. There certainly won’t be any free ones.

We are supposed to fork over half a trillion Dollars and literally ALL of our little remaining personal sovereignty to 5 known psychopathic multi-billionaires who just tried to kill us off with experimental mRNA injections, so that these same psychopathic multi-billionaires can inject us with MORE untested mRNA injections, which we are meant to believe will cure us of the cancers that the PREVIOUS experimental mRNA injections are expected to give us.

I have long considered that those people (and I use the term loosely) most probably regard the rest of us as little more than disposable livestock, but not until Project Stargate did I realize that they don’t. They actually see us as insentient cordwood.

Is it too soon?

Nah. It’s always time for a little more truth, especially when it’s shouting at the top of its lungs, and jumping up and down waving its arms in your face.

Trump is that rarest of all political animals, the “Honest Politician”.

So what, you might ask (and you should ask!) is a so-called “Honest Politician” and does such a mythological creature even exist?

Sure they exist, but they ARE rare! Like the old saying goes, an honest politician IS ONE WHO STAYS BOUGHT.

Trump stays bought. And he’s not shy about telling you so, out loud and in public. Donald Trump loudly and proudly brags that he just LOVES to make deals. If he agrees to the terms of the deal, and you pay in advance as agreed upon, then he will deliver what you paid for. Just ask him if that ain’t so.

The Zionist Israeli/American (dual “citizen”) oligarch, Miriam Adelson, Paid Trump 100 million Dollars for the Golan Heights and the Embassy move to Jerusalem. He delivered both and explicitly claimed credit for delivering-as-promised. Same thing with the bombs, intell services and media cover to steal Gaza by means of genocidal force. Trump got the Oval Office and the Zionists got the dead Palestinians and real estate. This for that. And neither complaint nor criticism escaped the Donald’s lips.

(by the way, he REALLY likes the beautiful seaside real estate just opening up for development in Gaza. Jared is already selling lots.)

These accusations might seem a little bit harsh in view of the wonderful Presidential Executive Orders he just signed. But the election campaign financing, dead bodies and forcibly demolished and vacated real estate are right there in plain sight, so see what’s in front of your eyes or not. Your choice.

The Zionists aren’t the only ones he has cut deals with.

He has also gone “All In” on an AI controlled Future of Everything deal to pour the full force and treasure of the United States into a full spectrum zero-privacy surveillance state, run by privately operated AI giants, mRNA vax masters, and Spy-Cops.

It’s hard to precisely identify customers in Donald’s latest projects because the view is so obfuscated, but we know for sure that the the crew includes Larry Fink, Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Pete Thiel and a smaller fry like Sam Altman, Luckey Palmer, and Erik Prince. Nice company. Just saying their names makes me want to wash my mouth out with soap.

Libertarians wanted the self confessed drug lord Ross Ulbricht released from prison (for some murky reason that I would like to know) so they told Trump they would switch their vote to him if he would spring their boy, and the Dread Pirate Roberts is a free man today, by Presidential Pardon on Day One.
No such luck for Julian Assange when Donny was last Prez, and still no Joy for Edward Snowden even now. I guess selling billionsin illicit drugs is more pardonable than freedom fighting.

Here’s the deal: Trade this for that, and then stay bought. Now THAT’S the art of the deal.

So, do you want Trump to do good things for you? It’s simple. Just offer him a deal.

But don’t expect it to be cheap.

[D Benton Smith]

I think we’ve hit that stage in the denouement of so-called civilization where just the friggin’ short list of crazy bullshit is too long and complicated for people to read. The task is beyond ordinary human capacity.

There is a composite of interrelated reasons why this is so.
a) Most people haven’t got the prerequisite information necessary to understand the items anyway.
b) The info that they know is probably wrong, and they know it.
c) The info that they think they know is for sure wrong, and they don’t know it.
c) They haven’t got the interest, or the time, or the stomach to even try to go there, so they don’t go.
d) The try to take it all in, but get so confused that they stop.
e) The have more pressing and immediate needs that MUST be attended to first (like eating, not getting killed, and helping loved ones do the same)

Nevertheless I just gotta say a few things about the whole damned mess while it’s still steaming. I am absolutely delighted by almost everything Trump said with those Executive orders (except the two worst ones, that I’ll get to in a moment). I reckon that a lot of miscreants, bad guys and lunatics are in shock about it. I would love to see all of the orders (except the two worst ones) come to pass, but talk is cheap. I wanna see the follow up.

Now about those two worst ones.

1) Regardless of Donald’s bluster and bravado there ain’t no way he’s going to preserve Zionist Israel or prevent its genocidal, suicidal, fratricidal descent into the dustbin of history. They had their chance and they blew it like no one has ever blown it before. Israel must go, and it shall go and ain’t nobody gonna save them. The trip will very very bloody if they try. If Trump tries to keep that from happening then he’s going to go when they do, and drag down anyone evil and stupid enough to back that play. Anyone who wants to join in is welcome to go to Hell with ’em. Bon voyage mother fuckers.
Killing innocent people in pursuit of an evil purpose is nearly the dumbest and most ill advised thing that a human can do. Don’t do it.

2) Trump can, indeed end the Ukraine war, BUT Trump cannot make Russia end the Ukraine war. If that were possible then the war would already be over. In fact, it would never have started in the first place. Trump had 4 YEARS (2016 thru 2020) to prevent the war, and instead of honestly negotiating he used those four years to arm Ukrainian, build up Ukrainian forces under NATO (United States) Command and Control and aimed them directly at Russia’s border.

Long story short. The Ukraine war will end when Russia achieves its strategic objectives, BECAUSE THEY ARE DEMONSTRATING, AS WE SPEAK, THAT NO ONE CAN STOP THEM.

Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe Trump is a sheep in wolf’s clothing, and intends that all will be well, but it sure doesn’t look that way from the cheap seats.

@MichaelReid
In answer to your questions of, “Really?” my reply is, “0f course not really.”

My question, “just HOW does a carte blanche pardon work in the real world of law enforcement and jurisprudence?” was a rhetorical sarcasm. In attempting to work out how it MIGHT work (in the real world of bureaucratically managed jurisprudence) one would quickly discover that it COULD NOT work. That only becomes really obvious if one takes the question seriously and tries to imagine how a so-called “preemptive pardon” would play out if it were ever seriously put to the test in a prosecutor’s office or a court room.

Clearly, attempting to do it would be equivalent to cramming 3 ft crowbar into the innards of a Swiss watch. Instant wreckage Can’t be successfully done. That was my point.

Justice, right, rejection of wrong, and the rest of what you said are things that I fiercely believe in, and none of them can co-exist with the utterly evil nonsense of preemptive carte blanche pardon.

I fully agree with your viewpoint.

[D Benton Smith]

Incidentally, anyone who accepts the pardon thereby forfeits the right to remain silent under the 5th Amendment, because if they cannot be incriminated of an offense they then have no grounds for the plea of self-incrimination. Double edged dirk. Right between ribs and into their lying heart.

I posted this nearly identical comment in the Godspeed DJT edition of this same day, but thought that it’s actually more pertinent to this stream.

“I’m wondering how a preemptive pardon might actually work (procedurally speaking) in an actual Grand Jury, Prosecutor’s Office or Court Room.

Does the person of interest tell the Grand Jury, “I don’t have to answer any questions because I have an unconditional pardon, in advance, for anything and everything that you might ask me about.”

Does the District Attorney not even launch an investigation into missing funds and several suspiciously dead bodies because the suspected perpetrator has a “preemptive” Presidential Pardon which forgives any and all crimes at any and all times?

And can a jury find a murderer guilty of a provenly premeditated killing (injecting a known to be deadly Vaxxine, for example) when the hit was ordered by a person who has been presidentially pardoned for intentionally creating the known-to-be-deadly injection and forcing other people to use it? (Anthony Fauci springs to mind).

This is a serious question. Just HOW does a carte blanche pardon work in the real world of law enforcement and jurisprudence? Imprudently, I think, or not at all.”

So we’re back to the tired old conundrum of discerning between the letter of the law and the spirit of the law. The letter of the law serves the spirit of the law, else there would be no reason for having the law in the first place. When the letter contradicts the intent, or serves to reverse the intended purposes (such as preservation of life by prohibiting murder) then it isn’t actually law at all. It’s crime.

[D Benton Smith]

The Constitution of the United States does not, however, grant to the President any power to set aside the laws of the physical universe, which dictates that causes come before events, not after them. It is not possible to pardon an event until it is know what the event is. Therefore “preemptive pardon” is logical nonsense because it simply can not actually be done.

[D Benton Smith]

My genius daughter pointed out that the vaxxines are still killing people all around the world by the millions even as we speak, and they will go on dying by those numbers into the foreseeable future, through immune collapse, cancers, blood clots and heart destruction. It’s not as though the event is all in the past, because it’s not. Each death, when it happens is a NEW crime being committed right now in present time.

To pardon a killing in advance is to make killings legal whenever it’s pardoned in advance.
Each of those deaths is a CAPITAL CRIME, committed with malice aforethought. This applies to all of those who have died in the past and all those who will die in the future as the direct result and consequence of a crime that has already been (and will continue to be) deliberately committed with full knowledge and intent of the lethality of the act.

There are TWO points that I want to make here. Both points are rather extremely important.to our future well being.

The first point is that the concept of preemptive pardon is utterly insane because it negates the bedrock foundation of what law even is. If any and every law can be set aside without question then none of those laws actually exist as law.

The second point is every bit as important as the first one and the second point is that to place the power of preemptive pardon to one Authority (such as the authority known as the President of the United States) is to make that that singular authority into the Authoritarian Dictator over everyone.

Just because he’s a “nicer” authoritarian Dictator than the last one doesn’t mean that he disapproves of the idea of authoritarian dictatorship in general, because an authoritarian dictator can be any kind of dictator that he WANTS to. That’s sorta the way it works and explains why certain types of narcissistic psychopath and/or sociopath seeks the position.

In a nutshell. NO INDIVIDUAL EVER should be granted authority to override, bypass or set aside the conclusive final decision of the judicial process.

The fact that just such an abomination actually IS in the Constitution goes a long way toward explaining how we got to this pitiful state of “pardoning” career criminal murderers so that they can go on killing.

Article II, Section 2, Clause 1, commonly referred to as the Pardon Clause, states:

“The President… shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.”

Ya get what ya pay for I guess.

@MichaelReid

a world system of financial control in private hands
able to dominate the political system of each country and
the economy of the world as a whole

The United States has always and only been a colony of England. A careful study of the history of the United States documents this fact incontrovertibly. Those people (and I use the term loosely) owned America then and they own it now.

They MIGHT NOT, however go on owning it for very much longer.

[D Benton Smith]

Incidentally, Biden’s latest and last round of “preemptive pardons” is an excellent confirmation of our well founded suspicions about which of the bad guys are the most vulnerable to successful prosecution. The Attorney General should thank Joe for saving her a lot of work in deciding who to arrest and prosecute first.
