□ [“Starmer Flirts With Rejoining the EU To Sabotage His Challenger’s Chances in by-Election"]

He's trying to win support for an opposing party - the ones against the EU - to hurt his own party member's election chances so that party member can't challenge him to be PM.  Ok, first of all, English politics just sound stupid.  Maybe they'd just do better if they had a king.  It's a shame Elizabeth left without providing one of them.  Second of all, I know it's common for politicians to make ridiculous statements like that, especially hurting their own side and supporting the enemies.  When it works, they get away with it.  When it doesn't, well we probably don't hear of it for the most part.

Next month is the ten year-anniversary of Brexit.  I highly doubt any more people have decided it was a bad idea to leave but I bet a lot more people are glad they did and which it could be more permanent.  Starmer makes it sound even worse by saying "This year, we have another summit with the EU where we’re going to take a really important leap forward in terms of the relationship, bring us closer to Europe."  Uh, you and what army?

There may still be the long-standing disagreement within the UK.  Ireland and Scotland voted to stay, England and Wales to leave.  Just a guess but I'd say it's more about being Irish and Scottish than any actual love for the EU, they have to disagree with England.  And of course London voted to stay.  If anything, they're more willing to get out now, only the illegal immigrants can be bribed to join the EU.  I'm assuming Starmer will be receiving orders to re-join at the summit.  Or he might be gone any day now.

□ [“Democrat Senate Candidate with Nazi Tattoo Caught Making a Repulsive Porta Potty Admission"]

A lot of his social media has been deleted for obvious reasons but, like the SS Totenkopf tattoo, it's not going away.  He claimed the tattoo was just being young and drunk although since-deleted social media posts from 2019 have shown that he knew exactly where the skull and crossbones came from.  Also in 2019, he posted how he loves watching a 2013 video of an American soldier being shot in Afghanistan.  "This never gets old."

So now the people who made sure to copy his social media posts before they were deleted have found a 2017 post he made about sitting in a porta-potty.  You can say 'he's just being a Marine, they're stupid that way' ok, fine.  But Democrats really need to start asking why they need him so desperately as a candidate.  Is this the most competent leftist in Maine?  Is the party really missing that 'certain something' now that Swalwell's gone?

That's where I think the real problem is for Democrats, these are the sort of people they appeal to running for office.  They think they can get away with anything and the party just proves them right about that.  Nobody cares about him now but he's going to become extremely popular once his signature is required to launder millions of taxpayer dollars.  We can also see this with the way Democrats absolutely adored Fetterman *before* he got brain surgery.  Throw in Ilhan Omar and AOC, that's the ever-lowering standards required to be a Democrat candidate.

It's politics so it's not like you get the best for the job anyway but there's still a tangible loss of even pretending to have ability.  Obama presented himself well, Bill Clinton was great at socializing.  Even Joe Biden came off as an energetic outgoing politician, he's an idiot but maybe he can still get things done.  But these people aren't even trying to do that, they're the 'thug' class.  They just want to take more power and benefit themselves that way and are barely even trying to hide it.  No wonder they find the *woke* agenda so useful, just repeat the same nonsense and nobody's allowed to disagree with them.  These are the sort of people who were putting on nazi tattoos a hundred years ago and it worked out well for them, at least for a while.

I guess the primaries are starting for this year's elections.  I don't follow such things but we will see how affective Trump is at getting rid of RINOs.  He just made an official endorsement, waiting 'til the last minute.  Maybe he had showed support earlier, I can't imagine even Trump can make tons of people stop what they're doing and rush out to vote at the drop of a hat.

It's also not clear what effect this will have.  There's just too many possibilities to be certain.  Just a glimpse at Massie's career, he doesn't look horrible.  But I don't follow him so I may be off about that.  The point is it's just not clear how much is getting rid of dead wood and how much is an actual purge.  Massie came out of the Tea Party movement which I'm also ambivalent about.  On the one hand, I did support it at the time and hoped it would put some actual right-wingers in office.  On the other hand, it doesn't seem to have done that very well and even at the time I was worried that it could be 'controlled opposition' by the left.  Ok, but how is that really different from Trump's MAGA movement?

Going after voter fraud, getting rid of illegals, redistricting, all that stuff, Trump is doing everything he can to make a real change in the next election or two.  That's good and I support it but I'm not confident enough to believe it'll work and even if it does, I wouldn't expect it to last very long.  If nothing else, the right-wing finds something else to do with their lives.  We're not going to devote our time to politics and would be indistinguishable from leftists if we did.  We need real motivation to be involved and not just relying on Trump.

But for those who do follow this stuff, this is a good sign.  There will be more in the primaries, then we'll see if it follows-through with the general election.  But the Democrats have to be worried.  Their attempts at fraud will be under heavy observation.  Meanwhile their main supporters will be bored.  They've already spent sixteen months screaming how the tyrant is going to kill us all and there's still almost six months to go before November.  I really hope Trump and his people have plans ready to show actual wins for a change instead of what we're seeing now.

Russia and Belarus Launch 3-Day Massive Drill of Nuclear Forces

□ [“Critics Ravage The Mandalorian and Grogu as a Horrible Mess!"]

Hadn't expected it but I'm surprisingly interested in hearing how the new Star Wars product is doing.  I'm not going to see it unless someone pays me enough money to be worth it but I am genuinely curious how big of a failure it will be.  As usual, nobody is willing to predict a complete bomb but we're only a couple days away so critics who've seen the movie are permitted to start giving actual reviews and it's not looking good.

There's some generic positive reviews, few people seem to say much about the story or the characters.  The negative comments give more details, even from mainstream media critics.  It's been seven years since the biggest franchise in history has had new product for movie theaters and this was the best they could do.  As far as I know, nobody has been mentioning any surprises, guest appearances by celebrities we used to like, or at least their A.I. impersonators.

There's always the rhetoric about how a franchise needs to 'do something different' but that's not how you build a franchise.  You need to stay with what has appealed to people for so many years.  This is a Disney+ tv show put on the big screen which probably got more attention than it deserved, and that's just because it had a Star Wars logo.  And because this is Disney property and they're trying to push the *woke* agenda.

This isn't the end.  I have no clue where Disney will go next but they can't just throw it away.  Maybe they'll hire outside studios to do stuff or pay people to use A.I.  They do have another movie that's supposed to be released soon but that's guaranteed failure.  We'll also be looking forward to the upcoming Avengers movie which might conceivably do better than this but will lose a lot more money because of how much Disney has wasted on it.  They're headed for disaster and are still ignoring any warning.

□ [“Trump Calls Off Iran Military Strikes – 'Full, Large Scale Assault' Ready 'on a Moment’s Notice'”]

If this is true - and it's like everything else in a war, so YMMV - then he says it's because other Mid East leaders asked him to hold off.  He names them so that's probably true.  This makes it look like he's playing the heavy.  He's already proven what his military might can do, the other Muslim countries are - at least officially - on his side, telling Iran to stop fighting back, nothing can stop this guy.  If that's really the case, it's not a bad idea, but I'm just guessing.

In a televised meeting, Iran's President even said the country had been hurt by this war.  He was minimalizing it but the wording makes it clear that this is a big admission.  They really can't stay with insisting they're doing fine and the US is the one with all the damage, their economy and infrastructure is broken.  He could be more honest but the fact that he's admitting this publicly is a big deal.

It's possible the people have finally started protesting, I saw something about that somewhere.  I've also seen that the mullahs are basically out of the way, now the IRCG is in charge.  It's the same as Trump's comments, no way to know how real any of this is, but I've always wanted to believe that we were in this for regime change.  Getting rid of the nuclear program is fine but it's only going to matter if Iran gets a new government.  I still think "Make Persia Great Again" would be the best way to promote this.

How strange, you used to be very relevant.  Then you started spending decades telling the world how much better you were than the US and now they don't listen to you.  Yet they still listen to us.  Such a mystery.

He makes one semi-decent point, that the EU leaders are more focused on displaying unity to the rest of the world.  But even there he misses the point, the time and effort spent trying to establish that unity is what shows the rest of the world that the EU is irrelevant.  Yet-another demonstration of how collectivism fails.  If the individuals go their own directions, they can focus on what they're each interested in and succeed or fail on their own.  By focusing on the group, that becomes impossible.

Then he doubles down with an even-stupider suggestion, a “union within the union” where the most important countries will make the decisions for everybody.  It's like the Congress of Soviets electing the Central Committee to run things.  Then the Central Committee establishes the Politburo to run things.  Then the Politburo gets its orders from the General Secretary.  That's what this guy wants to do to the continent.

This is why the EU is breaking apart.  Those less-important nations are increasingly voting right-wing.  Latvia's government has fallen, now it looks like Lithuania is facing the same problems with Ukraine drones.  Angela Markel has spoken out, someone we didn't expect to hear from again, that they should be doing more to talk to Russia.  Andalusia in southern Spain is preparing to vote the socialists out, unless there's election fraud.

There's obviously some big plans in place, at least hopefully.  With requiring IDs to vote, DOGE cutting funding for vote fraud, getting rid of illegals, the redistricting and now these lawsuits, they appear to be pushing really hard to show just how few real Democrat voters there are.  One thing that matters is not just winning these lawsuits, it's that there will be attention on the votes and the counts.  There's whatever the Democrats get and then there's the real tally.

They're finding all sorts of Democrat-favored fraud, thousands of primary ballots sent to the wrong addresses in Maryland is the most recent example.  The acting-AG has just announced that the 2020 election was stolen.  I still think Trump really expected to win but had back-up plans in case he didn't.  We're seeing those plans play out here.

But there's still the obvious problem that nobody's going to believe these results.  Even Republicans have a reason not to trust the winning results just because they've been hit so hard.  Democrats certainly won't believe them.  I'd like to know what can be done to show their leaders that this isn't working and they have to actually win voters over for a change.

I'm still surprised that the trans movement has come and gone so quickly.  Even more interesting given how it's apparently been around leftist elites for a long time but the public could generally ignore it, other than jokes like men wearing dresses.  I still cite the Bud Lite ad as the turning point but whatever the real moment was, it was a very clear, very harsh sense of "no further."  And they're still desperately trying to recover from that.

Maybe that's natural, it's been a few years now and they haven't been able to bring in as many children as they used to.  If you're not going to use biology, got to get the next generation in from somewhere.  Still can't figure out how it's happened but I really think the Trump administration has somehow lured the left into putting all these anti-social elements together, with the trans movement as the apex.  To an extent, they don't know how much they've lost and what they do understand, they think it can just be replaced easily.  They haven't recovered from the operation.

What we should be worried about is that our side will lose this next battle.  That seems unlikely but we're not living in sane times so anything can go wrong.  The left is openly proclaiming their tyranny if they ever get the chance to do it again so we can't assume anything will work out for us.  That's what this candidate will do as soon as he/she/it gets the chance, and everyone else on that person's side.

Then there's this.  It's still very iffy, no reason to think China isn't giving all the orders.  Even if they aren't, their negotiation style is known for making everybody think the deal is set and then they change their minds at the last minute.  Even if Trump can get through that, it's still just the preliminaries.  Maybe China doesn't want a war but they need to keep the threat alive.

□ [“Ukraine Unleashes Massive Drone Barrage Deep Into Russia as Drones Swarm Toward Moscow"]

Ukraine is the least-popular of the ongoing wars so it gets little attention these days.  I'm only noticing this from the timing which makes a few things stand out.  First of all, where did they get all the drones from?  The US is the most-obvious answer but that means Trump is in way too deeply into a war that's none of our business.  And if it's not the US sending these in, then who?  I will say that it's good Ukraine attack Russia directly.  After the recent threats to other countries and Russia insisting they'll protect their people being attacked by other countries, it's nice to have them just getting closer to just fighting each other, the way wars are supposed to work.

Both countries are also hitting each other with media.  Wait, they only now thought of doing that?  Anyway, Russian media reports that Zelensky's right-hand man who's being investigated for money-laundering also practices witchcraft.  Ok, it's Russian media so that's not a selling point but their source is indeed from Ukraine.  And now Russian media is reporting that Zelensky's wife will also be arrested.  The charges aren't mentioned and Ukraine media denies this.  Now that's how a war should go.

But now all of a sudden a lot of US enemies in this hemisphere are on the defensive.  Maybe it's just the media I follow but they seem to be ready to refer to the Cuban regime as 'past-tense.'  It even sounds like their elites are accepting that the game is over and they lost, giving in is the only way they can stay in power, or at least stay alive.  As critical as I am of how Trump is handling some aspects of these wars - and complimentary on other aspects - I am impressed that he seems to have made this one go fairly smoothly, at least so far.

I gotta admit, I'm surprised at all the wars I've been listing that we're involved in.  And keep in mind, these are just the ones there's public knowledge of.  What else are we sending in special operations or something sneaky to deal with?  I've noticed for the last several months that I have roughly the same mental motivation I had in the Army, simultaneously frustrating and invigorating.  A consistent sense that I don't know what's going on, just gotta keep moving forward to accomplish the mission.  That's war for ya...

What is he doing?  He was the SDNY attorney, protected both Clintons from legal problems, ran the FBI in Obama's second term.  He's clearly connected to important people, protecting their illegal activities, but why is he suddenly the spokesman?  And why does the media keep asking to see him, he made this statement on "Meet the Press" this morning.

A few days ago, he went on CNN and said he still keeps in regular contact with people at the FBI.  He's being investigated for publicly making murder threats against Trump - 8647 - but doesn't seem the slightest bit worried about what admitting to his FBI connections says about him.  And here he is giving instructions to prosecutors.

The "deep state," the "shadow government," the "new world order," whatever it is, that's what he's defending.  That's who he's sending these message out to.  He was also part of the GWB administration so he has people everywhere.  Giving that he comes from New York state, he may have been involved with some of the cults in that area.

It's very annoying that almost a year and a half into Trump 2.0, we still don't have any real clue who the enemy is.  Comey is the most obvious target but he's the only one we know of, beyond just pointing at celebrities and blaming them, and he's only just getting prosecuted now.  This is not a good sign of progress.

I guess they couldn't do a 'no kings' rally, what would be the point?  Can't really protest Elizabeth's grandson yet.  But this rally has been protested for a while, I hope it's affective.  The citizens of Europe - and the US for that matter - have been engaging in a 'cold war' against their own governments for a while now.  So of course I always want to see them doing something about this.  Haven't found any comments on the few leftist sites I look at.  Wonder why.

It is good timing with Starmer having his own problems.  Then there's the EU just across the channel which the British were suppose to be better than.  I don't expect anything to come from this rally although I'd like to be wrong.  What I do expect is that more people will be encouraged to stand up and oppose the tyrants.  And possibly at least a few of the elites will be smart enough to see which way the wind is blowing.

The next step?  No idea.  I'm not really a fan of rallies in general - I suspect most right-wingers aren't - but that limits the options for resistance.  I do support going on strike, show those in charge who really matters to keeping the nation working.  Other than that, I really hope the US has been working to import guns and other weapons to these people.  The Labour leaders challenging Starmer openly want to rejoin the EU, they need to be stopped.

I totally support the administration getting rid of the rulers of Cuba but this is annoying.  The guy's in his 90s, he's never going to make it to trial unless you send in the troops today and have a judge ready.  I'm guessing that's not going to happen so what's the point?  I will also admit that given Iran is still a problem, there's no reason to add another issue to deal with.

I've only seen one mention on one website that I can't even remember which one but it says Cubans are starting to protest, similar to what the British are doing in London today.  If that's true, it won't get any attention until it's too late for the Cuban elites and their leftist allies.  If we're lucky, we'll wake up within the next week or so and hear Havana's on fire and the rulers are fleeing.

As always, I assume there's more going on here.  Cuba is less than a hundred miles from Florida, it's been part of US history for a long time.  Then there's the Russian influence, the mafia, everything that's going on in the Caribbean.  This is on our doorstep so it's naturally more relevant to us than whatever's going on across the oceans.  So I understand that the Trump administration is preparing to do something, but this nonsense about Castro?  Get real.

Tell us that you're going after all the children without using those exact words.

In one sense, this is just showing their delusion.  They always expect to get their way and anybody who disagrees is bad.  That's what their arguments always come down to.  It's never about 'just do your own thing and don't bother anyone else,' bothering other people is the main goal.  I don't know what percentage of gays actually just want to live quiet lives but they'd be better off if that was the case.  Instead, at the best, it comes off like a gateway drug, trying to get everyone in on everything else that's even worse.

I'm even wondering if that's the point of the movement.  I've always wondered why the L comes before the G.  Or why there was any distinction, aren't they both just interested in sex with their own gender?  But this is probably a way to use the 'ladies first' mentality that comes from heterosexual society where there's only two genders. Just another way to put a crack in the defense that gets wider.  I can remember when it was just "LGB."

The big worry is that they really do have their hands on our kids - in every sense - so just opposing this movement isn't enough.  That's part of the real problem that this has been put so deeply into every part of society.  Hollywood gets the most blame, along with the school system but it seems to be everywhere.  I don't know what could be done to minimize it, much less remove it from public society.

She says she can't believe Omar didn't know, that's not the same thing.  It's entirely possible that Omar had no clue whatsoever.  The people around her would know, she might have just signed documents whenever she was told to.  This was the fraud that was supposed to buy food for children during Covid.

I'm also wondering how much of the leftist elites avoid signing any documents as much as possible.  This would be avoidance of being caught for fraud but it seems like a general personality trait, put nothing down in writing that you can be caught on.  Omar is "mentioned" a half-dozen times in texts and emails, that's not remotely proof that she knew anything about it.  And without that, unless you have camera or audio recordings, it's just accusations.

This chick also says there were 80-90 other people involved in this fraud, she's the only one punished for it because she's white.  That may be the case although there are others being exposed - the restaurant owner - but at least it's a sign that these people have a reason to turn on each other.  The fact that she's doing this interview and more is coming out suggests it's all going to be exposed.  Minnesota did just pick another white person to bust for fraud to make themselves look good.

It's the EU so there's no reason to trust it but other than that, this looks like they turned a major corner.  They are overwhelmed by too many problems which stem from this mass invasion and desperately need to do something about it.  I'm wondering if their traditional 'soft tyranny' may fade because they'll need to be more harsh if they're really going to get rid of some of these people.

It's probably been publicly known for decades but the UN has a policy that encourages this mass migration, specifically from the 3rd world nations to western civilization nations.  This has been going on for decades.  I would speculate it was started by Russia 50 or 60 years ago and they pushed it through their satellite states until it reached the UN but regardless, it's been going on for a long time.  The Camp of the Saints was published in 1973 and I've wondered it was based on some inside knowledge.

Member states continue having their own problems.  Romanians are demanding their president resign for overstepping his bounds and getting involved in legal issues.  The Latvian prime minister just resigned because Ukraine keeps shooting drones overhead.  That's the excuse she's giving, make of it what you will.  So Eastern Europe is having their problems much like Western Europe.  I'm a bit surprised the EU is still holding together at all.

In Tennessee, a Representative who's been there since 2007 and in the state Congress for twenty years before that suddenly decided he won't run for re-election because he can't win in the newly-drawn districts.  He's a white guy who's been elected in a majority-black district for almost 40 years and *now* he can't win?  Something seems odd about that, maybe he self-identified as "black."

I don't trust polls and I don't trust leftist media so Politico reporting on polls isn't very convincing.  That said, they indicate that a lot of Democrats are perfectly willing to ditch these blacks-only districts if it would win them more elections.  This indicates that black voters are less important than gaining power.  It's also a trap, it's not like they can promise to restore the race-specific districts if they win election because then they couldn't be re-elected.  Maybe they just hope blacks are stupid enough to fall for this but after all these decades, maybe they know better.

She has a nose ring.  That's been getting a lot of attention lately, as people realize that women are showing how easily led they are, like cattle.  I really have to wonder how her fellow party members are dealing with this.  They have to repeat how glad they are that someone so young and outgoing is running for office while inside they're cringing at having to promote this in public.  She's opposed to Trump so you have to support her.

No idea if she's faced a primary yet.  If she has, I guess she's guaranteed to win the seat.  If she hasn't, the party might be desperate looking for candidate that's a bit more normal.  But that's going to be tough to do.  They are so imbedded in this travesty.  The ones closest to the power structure will think this is a good idea, the ones who don't will be further away.

□ [“Trump and Xi Jinping on Red Carpet in Beijing – Leaders Hold Bilateral Talks"]

We might be getting a slight bit close to figuring out wtf this war is about.  Not sure if anything will be resolved from this meeting but it's probably safe to assume there will be some changes.  Who knows, maybe someday we'll even find out what those changes are.  I'm not happy that Trump's going there instead of Xi coming here but I will admit it's certainly in Trump's image to go out and do the work.  There's also precedent, 'only Nixon can go to China' and all that.

It should also be a given that this discussion will be relevant to other parts on the war with BRICS.  Russia has just announced that they will protect their citizens abroad.  There is historical justification for that but for one thing, it doesn't accept that sometimes citizens in another country cause their own problems.  For another thing, this really isn't the time and place for a sudden announcement like this.

And then there's Iran.  I've been quite supportive and I realize that there are a lot of different things going on across the region.  Maybe we were just spoiled by Venezuela being taken out in one day but this is still going on with no signs of ending.  The Iranian people still haven't moved and Trump says he had expected the Kurds to help.  They'd been given support but weren't doing anything either.  This is putting Trump in a position none of us wanted him to be in.

The quickest and easiest solution might be to just wipe out the government and let them all fight to take over.  Not sure that's the best option but unless some agreement with China is reached, that may be the only option.  I still want to think we have planned this out but this is not winning.  The Taliban was able to hold out for twenty years and regain control of Afghanistan, the mullahs aren't even in that weak of a position yet.

□ [“Politico:  Democrats Trying ‘New’ Strategy of Blaming Trump for Everything"]

That's not really "new."  They're just using that word in reaction to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries demanding “maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time.”  But then they got screwed on Virginia so now they have to turn back to what has worked best for them over the last ten years.  And no, you're not permitted to ask how well they've done over the last ten years.

Maybe this is like a rock band realizing nobody is buying tickets to hear their new songs.  Or a Marvel movie, thinking a minute or so cameo from some high-paid actor is enough to interest people.  But at least the rock band and Disney have to actually produce something, this would be Democrats just repeating the same things over and over.  At some point the tyrant needs to stop you from saying bad things about him or he's not much of a tyrant.

It's still quite interesting to see how the left and their moderates try to figure out what to do.  Since leftism means denying reality, they can't even have any honest discussions about the problems so everything gets worse.  Then there's the incompetence, they appealed the Virginia court decision to the Supreme Court and the appeal had multiple typos, including which court they were addressing.

They're really going to need people who have actual legitimate accomplishments they can rely on instead of what they have now.  And they're probably going to get more desperate as they get closer to the mid-terms.  This behavior just leaves them where they were with Harris, and Biden before her, and Hillary before that.  But they're still stuck with a lot of the same people in charge.

□ [“83-Year-Old Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL) Has Missed 43 Straight Votes In a Month"]

A couple months ago it was a Republican in this situation, now more old people are having problems.  I have to wonder if this is part of the job.  Even if they don't do any real work, they're in the highest positions of the land and that may erode whatever mental capacity they have.  Of course that includes Trump.  I've wondered if some of his bizarre public statements was because of this, or maybe by some hidden method of combatting senility.  Pretty sure the Chief Executive would have that option available.

In Trump's case, it's impossible to tell for sure because he's Trump, he's always been like this.  But for more normal people, it's becoming a recuring problem that so many of the old people in charge are having these problems.  Nancy Pelosi has barely been noticed since it was announced she's not running for re-election anymore.  There's several reason for that but her mental status is one of them.

Experience does count for something, that's part of human nature and will never go away.  But there's also a legitimate point to be made about old people getting less attention and especially being required to give up power.  This is just like the left going after the Supreme Court and other judges but it's still a valid point.  Maybe it's just ongoing problem that will never be solved.

□ [“Liberal Judge Quashes Petition Forcing a Vote on Alberta Independence From Woke Canada"]

Naturally the judge went for a *woke* stereotype, that this didn't consider the requirements of "indigenous people."  Apparently there's some law that says something like this has to go through them first, the people you conquer are really the ones who make important decisions.  Not sure they're even part of Canada but I guess that's not relevant.

It's Canada so I don't expect this to go well but Alberta's premier intends to appeal this decision.  I doubt that will work but Albertans won't be happy.  Nor will other Canadians because they're going to have the same issues that Europeans are facing.  So this independence attempt will probably fail but that will just increase the resistance to the leftist government.

So ultimately this is going in the right direction even if this step goes nowhere.  Canada is essentially where the worst of Europe combines with the worst of the US, at least as far as government is concerned.  They've had decades to rely on the US for protection and I don't think they've even started considering what to do if that changes.  At least the rest of NATO is seeing the problem.  To be fair, Canada is our next-door neighbor so they are more entitled to protection than countries on the other side of the Atlantic.

□ [“EU Climate Cultist Unhinged Rage During Brussels Lecture – Calls Opponents 'Criminals'"]

The left is going insane all around the world.  Well, Western Civilization since that's about the only place they can get away with it.  They've got to punish whatever is right in front of them because that's the best they can do.  Some EU countries are getting away from the 'global warming' agenda, Trump is even planning to sponsor a nuclear power plant in Belgium.  Wouldn't surprise me if that's what made this guy go bonkers right here and now.

But *woke* European leaders are having similar troubles.  In Britain, Starmer keeps losing popularity after last week's local elections.  He tried giving a speech and that just increased the MPs of his own party demanding his resignation.  Even some of his cabinet ministers are saying he should go.  I wonder how much blame he gets for this and how much he's just an easy target and everyone else is hoping to escape the blame but the tides are turning in Britain.

German Chancellor Merz is trying to fix his low popularity rating by giving speeches around the nation, but he just gets booed at, even by the trade unions.  Haven't heard news from France in a while but it has come out that when Macron's wife slapped him at the airplane door last year, it was because he'd been flirting with a young Iranian actress.  Like she expects a French husband to be faithful?  Or looking for someone younger.  Even in wanna-be-EU Ukraine, Zelensky's being hit with similar problems.  A former spokeswoman just said he takes cocaine and other drugs while one of his top officials is being charged with laundering.

The timing is interesting, like people who've kept these secrets safe in Europe have recently found a reason to reveal them, perhaps to save themselves.  I've been complaining about Europe for years and one of the main reasons is because their people haven't been finally standing up to their tyrants.  Well it's barely gotten started but that's what's happening here.  And it's glorious.

□ [“Democratic Socialists of America Endorse Billionaire For California Governor"]

When it's about getting closer and closer to power, all their supposed beliefs get ignored.  The wealth also helps although they do suggest that *maybe* he's a class traitor.  Ya think?  Funny how they're willing to take the chance with this guy who founded a hedge fund company that made him billions of dollars instead of any of the poorer, less successful candidates who aren't white or male.  At least he's able to say the things they want to hear.  Doesn't have to follow through with them, he just has to say them.

California politics are getting far more nationwide attention than they deserve.  Gavin Newsom seems to be hiding out to avoid attention.  I still think it's the high-speed rail that's really going to show what a failure he is but there's many other things to point to.  Just a few days ago, it came out that he announced this big 'free diapers' plan for parents, something that would make him look great.  Of course by "free" he means "taxpayer-funded" and his wife is on the board of directors for the company that would be getting paid for these diapers.  Gavin didn't think that was worth mentioning?

There's also news about the upcoming Los Angeles mayor race.  I will deliberately avoid looking up the candidate's name but one Republican has been getting a lot of attention.  He's using A.I. to make some clever ads and is clearly inspired by Trump to just address the problems directly.  It's L.A. so there's no reason to think he has a chance of winning but I still expect this to be a good sign to California, how many people in this leftist holy land really don't want to live like this any more?

□ [“Democrat Response to Losing at the Virginia Supreme Court Has Escalated Quickly"]

They tried to get a law that redistricted voters so that Democrats would have ten of the eleven Congressional districts.  But the state supreme court pointed out that was unconstitutional.  So they tried getting a law that would remove every member of the court for being over 52 years old, which was also unconstitutional.  And stupid, even some Democrats in the state congress refused to take part in this and pointed out it had no chance of working anyway.

So now Marc Elias is demanding the Virginia government be gotten rid of.  He's been prominent among Democrats for decades, the counsel for candidates John Kerry, Al Franken and Hillary Clinton, as well as the head of political law for Perkins Coie, where they gave us the 'Russiagate' scandal.  He clearly has influence on the party and is going straight to revolution because he didn't get what he wants.  I'm pretty sure he's aware that the state government is run by his fellow Democrats, this just doesn't sound like anything that he's concerned about.  Not even the fact that the people voted for them matters to Elias.

We might find out soon how many real followers he has, or members of his tribe.  Who's willing to go for this?  This cannot last much longer, we just have to find out how many of the uniparty will really go along with this.  Everybody else will be getting the hell away from these people and the disaster they're bringing on themselves.  They're rushing to this, was it even an issue a month ago?

□ [“Pete Buttigieg and Another Democrat Coached on How to Act ‘Normal’ at a Campaign Event"]

This wasn't a spy using a camera, it was being set up to catch a discussion between them and someone off-camera explained how they needed to talk like normal.  That usually isn't something you need to do for successful politicians, which shows how low the Democrat standards have fallen.  This is where you should be saying 'get out of the race, we'll replace you with real people' but instead they just need to be instructed on how to talk.

It is a valid question how this footage got out.  My guess would be that this is some insider who sees the problem these elitist leftists will bring with them, that they have no clue what normal people think about anything.  So perhaps this footage was released to give the party a splash of sanity, 'what are we doing here?'  The problem is, there's almost as much chance that this was deliberately put out precisely to show these potential candidates how hard they work to relate to voters.  It's also possible they think this leak was a good idea.

Another Democrat had a similar interview problem that will kill his candidacy, I think he's running for California governor but I don't recall.  The reporter was going to ask some tough questions about his career and he explained to her, on-camera, that this interview was about making him look good.  Maybe they'll get to a few serious questions but that's not the priority here.  I don't think her response was included in the footage but the fact that he just openly admitted this shows how unwilling he was to handle any real campaign.

And this is the same problem, maybe he's being sabotaged by someone in the party or maybe they thought this would really help him.  It's almost startling how open they are these days about saying whatever it takes to get power and how destructive they'll be as soon as they get the chance.  They clearly see hundreds of millions of us as pawns who will just accept whatever they do to us.  Instead we're wondering how they got this far and what needs to be done to stop them.
