If you were good this year, you get President Trump for Christmas. If you were bad, you get Biden.

□ [“Macron in Hot Water for Defending Gérard Depardieu in Array of Rape and Sexual Assault Allegations, ‘He Makes France Proud’"]

French movie stars aren't people I give a whole lot of thought to, although I've at least heard of Depardieu.  But it's France, and it's movies, so yes of course they've been doing this for a long time.  Depardieu publicly stated in 1978 that some girls just want to be raped and he'd been doing that since he was 9.  This is why he stays rich and famous and Macron understands that.

I guess it's possible that this might just be an excuse for him to say he was totally wrong and he'll never do it again, but no one will believe him.  The guy's in his mid-70s and if that's not an excuse to stop, what else is there?  Might as well go after Jack Nicholson or Roman Polansky for all the relevance.

This might be trying to do something about the global elites and their theatrical allies.  Depardieu has other odd parts of his history.  Some sort of alliance with Russia although he does oppose the Ukraine war.  He has become a resident of Belgium, which is the center of this 'new world order' and always has been.  He's also a citizen of the UAE.  Huh?  So he's basically picking countries at random, showing that where you come from is completely irrelevant.  What a French thing to do.

□ [“Governor Newsom Rejects Plan to Block Trump From 2024 California Ballot"]

He's probably just trying to appear rational, that beating people at the ballot is much more fair and openminded than using the courts to get rid of them.  But it's entirely possible that the real reason he's taking this position is because banning people from ballots could be used against him.  He's probably planning to turn against Trump next year, and even blue states aren't going to fight to put him on the ballot if he doesn't get the nomination.

It's not clear how this will go, but it does look like this is is the situation that makes even leftists resist doubling down on this.  Democrats using this weapon which wasn't needed before, to fight someone they supposedly beat already?  And they did ban a previous Republican candidate from the ballot.  This just looks like they're more desperate to keep from losing an election they've already stolen than anything Trump can do.

It just looks like too many things could go wrong and there's no way to know how many people are just trying to go along and how many are actually trying to grab power in their own way.  Newsom has a lot of advantages but nobody wants him so there's a lot of problems too.  He might actually need Trump as the opponent because otherwise he has no chance of stealing enough votes.

□ [“Disney World Employee Arrested and Charged with 32 Counts of Child Pornography"]

More of this just keeps coming out.  Either Disney is about bringing together as many child molesters as possible or the child molesters know how to groom Disney.  I'm guessing the former, just because there needs to have been too many people in charge for too many years for this to just be coincidence.  I could see the argument go either way on if Walt was personally involved in this, but those that came after him obviously were.

But until recently, there was some sort of restraint.  Whatever else Disney and Hollywood got up to in private, they needed to keep quiet about it, but that's no longer the case.  They're already supported by the government so it's not like there's a sudden change in laws.  Pretty sure gay marriage or Obamacare didn't benefit child molesters, neither did handing over authority to the WHO.

But for whatever reason, they're all in on Disney.  Disney isn't even trying to protect itself, they're all in on making sure they have as many child molesters on the payroll as possible.  The Florida legal problems are getting closer to them, so they're probably begging the federal government for help.  Totalitarianism is always the solution for these people, and it gives them more access to children.

Liberal Arts Professor at University of Minnesota Calls to “Decolonize” and “Dismantle” US
December 23, 2023

Based on opening day, the Aquaman sequel is not doing as well as the Captain Marvel sequel.  Maybe it'll get better over the weekend, but it's not starring a woman.  You'd think that alone would be enough to beat any woman anywhere like she deserves.  But no, Captain Marvel is totally victorious so far.

I still hear very few people suggesting that the economy is any reason the superhero movies are failing.  I don't know if it's the main reason but it's definitely one of them, there's no reason to spend a ridiculous amount of money on something nobody wants to see, along with popcorn and such.  But I am trying to figure out if Marvel and DC are doing this deliberately or if they're just getting desperate.

On the one hand, you'd think someone would have had the sense to shut these expensive failures down, so this must have been intentional.  On the other hand, the people in charge are definitely part of the cult, they can get whatever they want up to and including the multiverse.  At this point, all we can say is that we're past the point where we have to guess whether or not these movies will fail.  They're going to bomb, we know it in advance and it's not going to change until someone does something intelligent, which there's no sign of happening soon.

DC has used up whatever interest the audience might have, it's worthless now.  Marvel's having the same problem.  Star Wars has burned itself down.  Every franchise has been destroyed by its corporate masters, there's no way this can be seen as a coincidence or an accident.  So why are they doing this?

□ [“Russian 'Special Flight Squadron' Lands in DC - Russia lays out terms of end Ukraine War"]

No way to know if this is true or not, but one believable part of this is that there's no point in talking to Ukraine about this.  They don't get a say in the matter, so just go straight to the people in charge of them.  Obviously Ukraine has to give everything up and will not be joining NATO.  There's no mention of the sanctions against Russia, which is an odd thing to miss.

So is this believable?  I don't know.  I assume both sides have been negotiating since the start, just to give themselves something to do.  But it is clear that Ukraine has nothing left and any attempt to resist is just killing itself.  You can do that if you want to, but it doesn't hurt Russia.  Maybe the US will tell Ukraine to stop doing that, maybe not, it depends on how much we want them to suffer.

The western elites are the enemy, so that's the point that will determine if this is real.  Will that become known to the rest of the world or not?  There's those who want to ditch the US dollar, there's Russia and China which are already doing that, along with BRICS.  Even if these negotiations aren't real, it looks like the rest of the world has already figured out which side is winning and it's not the US, all thanks to our leftist rulers.
