Well that explains why they've immediately started negotiating with Trump.  It's possible the elites have their own generators but that will make them very obvious targets and at risk for betrayal on their own side.  And if they don't have their own generators, they'd just be looking for a way to protect themselves until they can escape.

Iran isn't falling as quickly as I hoped but a couple months ago, Trump said he hoped to get to Cuba by the end of the year and this is already happening.  He's also gathered as many allies as he can in Central and South America to take out the narco-gangs.  There's been no news from Venezuela for a while so we'll see what happens there.

Gotta admit, I'm just amazed at how Trump is finally getting around to handling some of these long-standing problems.  Cuba has been a problem since my parents were children and nobody's bothered to do anything about it before him.  From there leftists have been able to access the whole region and serve as an entry point for others crossing the Atlantic.  Just as a point of resistance it's a major leftist icon and the people in charge are suddenly helpless.  The left always forgets that the enemy gets a vote too.  They didn't even bother producing any power sources for this nation.

I'm assuming this is made-up just to insult him.  Looking up Ayatollah Jr.'s history, he doesn't seem to have been one of those children of the elites who went to school in western countries so I'm guessing he didn't party with the infidel elites.  There are also rumors about problems having sex with his wife but I'd assume that's the same thing, it's about humiliating him in public.

The goal is to take the mullah regime out.  Not sure how well that's going but Trump is clearly playing on a deeper and wider level than most of his critics realize.  Muslim states are angry that Iran was bombing them, even Hamas spoke out against this.  Al Jazeera just released an editorial on how effective Trump's attacks have been at weakening the regime and separating them from others.  They can cut off the Strait but then they can't ship out their own oil to their own allies, i.e. China.

Not sure how seriously it should be taken but reportedly nations are refusing to send their own ships to the Strait and help us.  It's quite possible they're actually doing it but lying about it in public.  Even there, it's not a good sign for anybody, for our so-called allies refusing to do anything against a real threat and for Trump not getting nations to genuinely side with him.  He can criticize NATO for this but they're not obligated to join in.

She's only famous for protesting fossil fuels and sees nothing wrong with immediately supporting fossil fuels if it helps a tyrannical regime against the US.  That's basically what leftism is for you.  I have no clue what she does regularly, or how she earns a living for that matter, but I think the last time I paid any attention to her it was when she was taking gays over to Palestine to protest Israel.  They were almost there but someone finally realized this may not go the way they expect so they stopped.

The anti-oil movement is going downhill, slowly but persistently.  More than anything, I think people are tired of elites going around on big jets telling the rest of us what we're no longer allowed to do.  You don't think oil companies have spent years researching how to make profitable solar power to make them even richer?  It doesn't work, that's why humanity has never really gone for it.  If it worked, it would have been created ages ago.

□ [“CNN Host Presses Pete Buttigieg:  Why Did the Biden Administration Do Nothing to Stop Iran?"]

They're still asking real questions?  I think several things are going on here.  First of all, CNN and other networks are probably getting desperate.  Their corporate masters have spent tons of money on streaming and still haven't found a real audience so these failing networks need to show that they can actually do something relevant like challenge the Democrat mentality.  The FCC also probably keeps asking why only one party is asked challenging questions from a 'news network.'

They're also trying to help potential candidates get some exercise.  Kamala Harris wouldn't know what to do with a real question and before her was Joe Biden.  Meanwhile Trump is giving so many interviews and answering so many media questions that it's amazing he ever finds time to seize more power and cause more wars while counting his money.  A lot of Democrats feel really burnt by how badly the 2024 primaries went and, if they're honest, the 2020 primaries too.  You don't have to come out like Trump but you need to at least try to appeal to Americans if you want to get their votes.

They're also facing the contradictions of leftism.  They associate with the elites and the world media so they actually see more of what's going on in the Middle East than they can tell us.  Trump is being far more effective than they want to give him credit for and after all these decades, even some Democrats have to wonder why nobody tried this before.  Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, why is Trump helping non-white countries more than liberals ever did?

More than anything else, that's probably the best thing Trump has brought to politics, pointing out that the left is just propaganda and elitism.  When the left is in charge, they deny individual freedom to ignore them and more people see that now.  'I'll call you whatever pronoun I want and don't care if you're offended by it.'  The left and their pet media really have no way to work with that so they're struggling with this.

This just comes off as more like desperation than anything else.  They've been attacking other nations as an attempt to get them to ally with Iran, then they tried to shut down the strait.  Now they're going to check every ship to make sure it's not US or our allies?  How, exactly, will they track which nations are US allies here?  It just seems like the sort of thing that could go wrong in multiple ways.  Meanwhile the US (and allies) can protect our ships.

The rumors are continuing that the new ayatollah isn't doing so well.  He might be dead, he might be sent to Moscow for medical care, he might be here but delusional.  Did they appoint Joe Biden?  I don't quite get how the ayatollah ranks in the Iranian government.  On the one hand, he's in absolute charge but effectively he's not a governmental figure.  How does that work?  Maybe it's similar to the British government but Queen Elizabeth (or whoever) doesn't expect to be obeyed.

Iran officially says they're getting help from Russia and China.  In one sense I'm sure they are but in another, I'm skeptical.  China would make as much use of them as possible but otherwise I think they'd keep Iran in reserve, not trustworthy.  Russia wants to keep its neighborhood reasonably peaceful, they border Iran through the Caspian Sea and their former territories, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Turkmenistan, so this is probably hassle they don't really want.

□ [“NBC Hack Kristen Welker Confronts Adam Schiff on Live TV for Keeping DHS Shut Down"]

Even pet media sees the problem.  DHS is supposed to prevent attacks like these but Democrats wanted DHS shut down and suddenly these attacks are surging.  Y'think there's any connection?  I can't figure out how this was planned but I'm certain this was part of the timing for the attacks on Venezuela and Iran, lined up with the last Democrat attempt to prevent government funding.  IIRC, DHS is the only one that was hit by this and here we are now.

So you can't spread fear without asking the obvious 'why isn't the government doing anything?'  Iran has been supporting terrorism for a long time so why haven't Democrats done anything about that except support Iran?  Until last week, has Iran ever really said they want peace with us?  The more you look into this, the worse the questions get for Iran and their Democrat allies.

But then there are the RINOs and the Uniparty rushing to support leftism, no matter what they've claimed to believe in the recent past.  I'm sure I've said many nice things about these two but they've just run away so quickly.  It's one thing if you can't handle the fight any more but to stay public and turn against your own side like this, I have to assume that was always the plan.

I really do think the left has developed a level of celebrity that build their careers claiming to be right-wing.  Their mission is to either turn on the people when it's needed most or to lead their followers in the wrong direction, or to just put on a show.  They were supposed to help leftism build but we're at a point where everything is breaking down.

It's one reason I've always thought 'center' and 'edge' was a more accurate term than 'right' and 'left' or 'conservative' and 'liberal.'  There's no way I'll win that argument so I'll stick with the standard terms but there's more movement on the edge and it's easier to fall off.  In the center, there is more stability, that's basically what it comes down to.  Things you can rely on and build from, that's not possible on the edge, no matter what the appeal is.  It's like the old saying, 'everybody is conservative about the things they know the most.'  That's what being in the 'center' is like and they're the ones we rely on for defense in this war.

Woah.  Hamas has always been Iran's front-line troops and even they're saying in public that Iran needs to stop.  This was broadcast on Al Jazeera and Palestinian media, it's got to be legit.  Maybe they're just tired of Israel killing them but this is a big deal.  We already knew other Muslim nations were siding with Trump against Iran but this shows how much he's uniting nations with each other and the US.

Trump has also announced that he's trying to get other nations to send warships to the Strait of Hormuz so shipping can be protected.  This seems a bit iffy, they could just bribe Iran not to attack them, but it still shows the level Trump is trying to work on.  I say "trying" just because we have no clue at our level what chance of success he has but I assume it's greater than zero.  It's possible they've already agreed on this and are just hammering out the final details.

I still think China cares less about who's in charge of Iran than about getting the oil so as long as they're covered on that, they'll support Trump on this.  I have no idea what Russia would want out the deal but there's probably a similar agreement, along with Turkey and Pakistan.  Europe has already shown they're worthless so they need to fix their problems first.

No way to know how this will wind up but wow!  At least for a brief moment, Trump has united the powerful nations of the world against Iran.  Lots of things can go wrong, they've also got a chance to unite against us now.  More problems need to be fixed but removing the mullahs from the equation will help a lot.  Israel has just moved into Lebanon again.  It was deliberately timed and they're going after Hezbollah.  More in the Middle East might be looking for some freedom.

Then there's our other neighbor.  I get the impression this is about some publicity reason.  We're already sending feds in to get the traffickers, there's no much Mexico can do about that.  And they're kind of stuck.  If this is a real Mexican government, they'd need to oppose the cartels just to maintain the monopoly of power.  Otherwise they side with the cartels and are also targets.

This just makes sense, the Monroe Doctrine needs to be reinforced after too many years of leftism.  The impression, and there's no way to verify or disprove it, is that the people are generally supporting this, both at home and abroad.  The left has no way to fight it without admitting that they side with the tyrants and those leftists who aren't in charge had no clue this was even possible.  Trump is slamming the 'new world order' in ways they never conceived of.

□ [“North Korea Fires 10 Ballistic Missiles During U.S.-South Korea Freedom Shield Drills"]

But there's still more.  For almost 80 years, this has been China's testlab, seeing what happens for any idea they want to impose.  I can't even believe a place like this is allowed to exist, I certainly have no clue what to do about it and I doubt Trump really has any way to take it down.  Looking it up, Kim Jong Un has been in charge almost as long as his father, Kim Jong Il, although combined they still aren't close to how long grandpa Kim Il Sung was in charge.

China probably has a 'turn off' switch, they wouldn't have let North Korea go nuclear without a way to control it, but this is spooky and I don't expect it to be fixed before Trump leaves office.  That said, beyond threats and nukes, there's not much they can really do.  Can't let their people learn anything about the outside world so sending soldiers elsewhere is a bad idea and without that, there's just the nukes that can only be used once.

This just seems off the rails.  They just take it as a given that they can't lose any future elections while simultaneously claim they're fighting a tyrant.  More than a few of them accuse him of stealing elections anyway so...  This doesn't add up yet they're doing it anyway.

Of course I'm worried that they'd actually steal elections.  Theoretically the Trump administration should be able to do something about that, they're already investigating California of all places.  I've wondered for a long time if leftists actually steal most/all of the elections in places they're in charge of but that just seems to unrealistic to believe in.  Yet here we are.

This just comes across as an obsession of being obsessed with a girl who ditched you, or who was never interested in you to begin with.  You going to punish the people who took down Maduro?  You going to punish Zelensky and Ukraine?  We already know you're going to punish Israel but at what cost?  Then there's all the effects Trump is having domestically.  Notice that people aren't outraged after the sudden increase in gas prices because there's an actual reason for it and we've just had a year of much cheaper gas to show what Trump can do.

Maybe this is just what Trump Derangement Syndrome does to millions of people.  For all the leftist schemes and delusions and cults, they're willing to throw it all away to get revenge on Trump, and anybody who supports him.  That's just not a smart way to go.  They don't realize that this is what Trump supporters voted for and overthrowing the leftist tyrants.  They just automatically assume victory is around the corner.  Are we going to have to put them in camps until they're cured or dead?

A female is attacking another female to defend men-with-penises.  That says a lot right there about why the gender divide is permanent.  Which of course these people refuse to believe, what a coincidence.  The one who played volleyball as a child says she's way more competitive than this adult female who actually plays in elite competitions and sees first-hand what having to go up with men is like.

I get that the trans movement is desperate to reclaim whatever it control it used to have over society.  I'm starting to wonder how much of it was funded by Iran or other globalists but this is idiotic.  This is the sort of mentality that creates a trophy for participation, diminishing actual accomplishment.  I am not remotely a fan of athletics but even I realize that it requires actual measurable ability.  The best women have no chance of beating the best men but they still have to try as hard as possible to compete against their own gender.  Pushing the transgenders into this just diminishes females in sports and notice that these pretend genders are never good enough to beat the actual men's groups.

And Democrats are just relentlessly pushing this now.  I still cite the Bud Lite ad as where the movement proved it couldn't win yet these advocates are just trying harder and harder.  Scrolling through facebook I notice tons of pro-trans posts.  They're probably mostly posted by 'bots but this will just repulse anyone who isn't insane.  If we can't get way from you when you're not in charge, this does not encourage anyone to put you in charge.  This chick who self-identifies as female is just showing the petty bullying these people will do anytime they get the chance.

How is the left supposed to react to this?  Cuba has been their idol for generations but think they're able to deal with Trump, what does Cuba know that Democrats don't?  They're trying to do something about the War Powers Act to stop Trump from attacking Cuba, don't they see what's going on?  Well, no, Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real thing.

Not just Venezuela, it's been pointed out that Cuba's funding ended when USAID did.  That's something Trump has been able to push throughout the world although it may be a long time before we really see the effects.  US money was being funneled everywhere to support our enemies in countless ways.  By nature Cuba was a long-time stronghold for leftists and it looks like it's ready to fall.  I suspect the dictators are just trying to negotiate their survival.  Since Cuba has no gas anymore, they may be in a rush.

Apparently the bombing has been getting even bigger and today was the biggest bombing ever.  Something like that.  I do support this but we can't just have day-after-day of bombing, that's not going to work.  We've taken out the main leaders but the lower ranks will stay hidden.  If all we're doing is bombing, they can try to wait it out.  I get that there are other things going on but there needs to be progress.

Trump also says the new Ayatollah is "I think he's damaged, but I think he's probably alive in some form."  To me that comes off similar to George W. Bush having little interest in where bin Laden is these days.  I get the point, there's a much bigger battle to face and in the Muslim world, the defeat from the infidel is even more humiliating.  But bin Laden was and the Ayatollah is still the primary target so it doesn't look good to just shrug them off like that.

Apparently Iranians are helping guide our drone attacks.  That's good but they need to be more involved.  We can't just maintain air attacks and we don't want boots on the ground so the Iranians need to finish the job.  They deserve it and we're still there to support them, get rid of these tyrants.

We're also seeing gas prices shoot up.  That suck, especially after the last year of low prices.  Trump is trying to do something about that too, releasing 172 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.  Not sure that's a good idea, neither is discussions about removing some sanctions, at least temporarily.  Russian ships that are already at sea have those taken down.  Meanwhile France and Italy have made a deal with Iran to get their ships through.

And just a note, France has another problem.  One of their soldiers in Iraq died from an Iranian drone strike.  When did France get soldiers?  Why am I always the last one to hear about these things?  And wtf are they doing in Iraq?  We are not remotely being told the whole story about this war.

I'm less interested in what they're doing against Hungary itself than about what else they've used this funding for.  That's one of the mazes that needs to be taken down, how the money is passed through NGOs to foreign accounts, cybercurrency, all the ways the elites control.  And then what are they doing with that money?

Americans see this with DOGE, with the cuts to USAID and the exposure of Somali daycare centers in Minnesota.  That's clearly just a small piece of what's going on.  Whatever globalists are named in Hungary's report will probably be found listed elsewhere, imposing their will on the rest of us.  I'm guessing that most of these people, at least the ones who matter, are in the EU and this was the real reason for this war.  They've been trying to infest Russia too so Russia responded the normal way, invasion.

Doesn't sound like there's any peace talks going on so Zelensky doesn't have anything to do.  He's not worried about being re-elected and has consistently lost the war since... well since it started.  But he has nothing to add to any part of this situation.  Trump's even denying Ukrainians being sent in to help against Iranian drones.  That seems odd, the Ukrainians would have experience with Iran's ally, I'd assume they can bring something to the table.  I suspect that it's more about keeping them from getting useful information from us, or Iran for that matter.  They are not to be trusted.

We don't really know how the Muslim world is responding to this and couldn't really trust any response they'd have.  It comes down to the individuals.  I probably have a higher opinion of Islam than most people but it's also clear that sanity is optional for the most determined ones.  How much of the Muslim world are willing to stop these attacks before they happen?  We really don't know if there are any of them and that's going to be a huge problem to face.

25 years after 9/11, I still wonder if the people in charge really did make a long-term plan for this conflict.  Don't know which side they were on but at least on our side, it's basically been impossible to perceive the opponents as a unified force, making them difficult to fight.  With Iran funding Muslim terrorists around the world, now that we've finally taken the mullahs out, we have an opportunity to actually work out who's on which side.  Both sides have a lot of military-aged men who only know a post-9/11 world.

They're trying to push these people out to kill as many as possible and as we see here, it's about death worship.  It might be interesting to look into what ancient societies really believed in made-up genders but the history of civilization has been about getting away from that.  These kids here were obsessed with a mass murderer who had also been obsessed with mass murderers.  It just keeps growing on itself.

So I think this is both the ultimate goal of leftism and also a weapons used by tyrants to make their own side more appealing.  In a strange way, the evil side is more understandable and normal.  It's the left who will always twist everything to encourage the evil side because 'diversity!'  Death-worship is always looming over their heads, something to be inspired to which will automatically encourage everyone else to join in.

If it wasn't enough that we're suddenly in a war, we're also being hit with A.I. and leftist media making up everything they can think of.  I am taking seriously the news articles I comment on but keep in mind there's a decent chance they're completely false.  We're getting all this from the internet which isn't always the best source of truth.

I've heard that Iran's constitution appoints the Ayatollah as the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.  If he can't speak out, they have no leadership.  In some ways that's a good thing but in other ways, Iran might have planned for that and the IRGC is prepared to operate on their own.  No one can command them to stop.  It's not that different from the threats of abandoned Japanese soldiers in the Pacific that went on for decades after Japan's surrender.  They may be prepared to lose but take as many people as possible with them.

Iran is trying to spread this conflict globally.  I'm guessing the US military has prepared for that as much as possible although there's no way to know how in-depth their plans can be.  The Department of Homeland Security has conveniently just been defunded, I hope the military has plans to take over that without a hitch.  In some ways, Trump has already won but in others, the conflict has just begun.  If (God willing) the Iranians finally overthrow the mullahs, the worldwide terrorists and their leftist allies will have nothing to retrain them any longer.

NYC Firefighters Angry After Bosses, Muslim Firefighters Modify 9/11 Memorial Area for Ramadan

Just a note, I'm still trying to think about Marvel and DC Comics' plans over the decades, trying to figure out what they thought they were doing.  The concept of "multiverse" has been around for a long time but I've wondered if Marvel and DC have been using that to oversee their respective IPs.  In a legal sense, each one was effectively in its own universe.

It's one thing if a company manufactures a tire and another company manufactures a windshield wiper and they send their product to Ford to build a car.  It's different in an artistic medium where writers and artists create stories on a monthly basis for characters that go on to make a lot of money in many other mediums.  I can't think of any real precedent.  You might do books or movies putting characters together, the Three Stooges meeting Frankenstein or something, but those are much less important to the audience or the corporations than the original IPs which remain separate.

The DC characters had specific meetings.  They didn't fight each other's villains or interact with their supporting cast otherwise.  Marvel was specifically created to be a franchise.  Spider-Man met the Fantastic Four in Spider-Man #1, cover-dated March 1963, the same month as Fantastic Four #12 where they met the Hulk.  This was maybe a year-and-a-half after the Fantastic Four had first appeared and they were already meeting.

That much is believable for building a franchise.  What I've been trying to figure out is why DC had been rebooting their old characters in the first place.  Flash, Green Lantern and Hawkman are the main examples but if you want to update them, why not just keep the original names and redo the characters for a modern audience?  It finally occurred to me that this might an issue for copyright and trademark.

I don't remotely understand how that works but Superman and Clark Kent both fall under the same rules.  By 1966, those rules were changing, so DC lawyers must have been working on what to do for many years.  If nothing else, that's what they were paid for.  Most businesses didn't have to think about these things but comics companies needed to keep their trademarks active in other ways.  That's when I noticed a few relevant events happening across a few years.

In 1953, Fawcett Comics went out of business.  DC had been endlessly suing them, claiming Captain Marvel was a rip-off of Superman.  It wasn't but they kept paying lawyers until they had the same effect.  These lawyers would have put a lot of thought into what does or doesn't constitute a rip-off.  One lawsuit against Fawcett was that an issue of Captain Marvel had copied the story from an issue of Superman.  The court ruled that this story theft had happened but DC had waited too long to sue so it was invalid.

In 1954, the Comics Code was formed.  The people who ran the various comic companies all got together to impose decency on everyone.  I'll ignore that decision and just point out that these companies now had a reason to talk about the business and how to run things, there's no reason to think they wouldn't have discussed trademark and copyright in the process.  They all had lawyers who thought about this stuff, both as protection from parents groups suing them and trying to negotiate with movies, tv, toys, coloring books, international publications.

In 1955, Mad the comic book quit and became a Magazine.  As with the Comics Code, I'm not looking at the decision itself, but this would be considered in all the legal discussions.  This is a visual medium so the look is very important.  For recurring characters, there must have been discussion about when a parody becomes theft.  Or how far you can go without being a theft.  There's also the need to keep IPs active by using them every so often.

In 1956, DC rebooted the Flash as a new character with the same name and powers but a different secret identity.  It might be based on legal technicalities which few people are remotely interested in but this might be the reason the secret identities were changed.  It was a way to reuse the superhero's name as an IP in a different fashion.

This does line up with the superhero fantasy, having amazing powers but needing to keep them secret for some reason.  This has always been part of the genre and is extremely nerdy, as well as unrealistic.  You have these unbelievable powers and want to help people with them, the costume and the code name are believable to a point but then you go and live two separate lives and nobody ever figures it out?  But this self-absorbed fantasy became a selling point for the IPs.  And now they could be expanded with different copyrights using the same name.  In interconnected stories that took place over years.

Marvel and DC used different policies but the new Flash met the old Flash in "Flash of Two Worlds," cover-dated September 1961.  The Fantastic Four's firs appearance was cover-dated November 1961.  Flash #123 followed by Fantastic 4?  Seriously?  The FF did not have secret identities and didn't even have costumes for the first few issues, they were instead generally a rip-off of Jack Kirby's previous DC comic, Challengers of the Unknown.

This would be testing out the legal efforts put into superhero IPs in a company DC had a lot of control over.  Not only with the threat of lawsuit but they were Marvel's distributor to the newsstands.  They'd know almost as much about what the company was doing as the Marvel publisher, editor and creators.  My main theory was that it was just an experiment and if anybody got hurt, it was just Marvel, no big deal.  There may have been other reasons but I think they'd been developing this for a long time, on a 20-year-or-so basis.

In the early 40s, the two separate companies that would eventually become DC put their IPs together as the Justice Society.  In the early 60s, the rebooted DC characters had formed a rebooted Justice Society, which the DC publisher told Marvel's publisher about during a golf game.  Marvel's publisher went back to the office and told Stan Lee to do a rip-off of Justice League and that's when the Fantastic Four were born.

In the late-70s, early-80s, Marvel and DC had started teaming up their characters, and I still want to know why an adaptation of The Wizard of Oz was the first thing they teamed up on.  Their goal was to do a Justice League/Avengers crossover but that failed to happen.  In the late 90s, they started team-ups again and successfully built up to that crossover in the early 2000s.  And now they're preparing to do another one, after decades of development on these IPs.

They're doing movies and tv shows which have little in common with the comics characters, or even other movies and tv shows.  Many of the main characters get rebooted and I don't pay enough attention to know how long that lasts.  It clearly degrades the IPs they've had for so many decades but perhaps they're preparing to lose copyright, or to be challenged by A.I.

There are some obvious contradictions - why does the MCU say it's "Earth 616" when that's what the comics have been for so long? - but an argument could be made that this all falls under the legal definitions of 'multiverse' that they've been using all this time.  And that may be why they relentlessly push the secret identity-aspect of the genre, even as they keep switching characters.  They've been thinking about this for a long time, or at least their corporate lawyers have.

□ [“Trump and Rubio Give Final Offer to the Castros and Díaz-Canel"]

If they give up power, they can live in Cuba peacefully.  Otherwise they can join Maduro in jail.  Oh my.  They're having negotiations with Castro's descendants and acolytes and have made this public, I'm guessing it's got a scheduled target date.  I'm also guessing that no one ever bothered to cancel the laws and regulations of the last 70 years so Trump will have all the authority he needs for whatever he's going to do.

I'm ambivalent on if this will work.  Getting rid of the Castro regime is fine but I doubt Cubans will let them just go on with their lives.  The Castros probably know that too.  It's probably closer to the situation Maduro was in just a few months ago, grab what loot you can and get to a plane, you've got one hour left.  If they're not at that stage now, they're very close.

Kind of amusing to realize that the 'new world order' is supposed to be about getting rid of long-time governments and Trump has more success to show for that in the last year than they do.  Makes you wonder what he's going to do to the EU.  I'm not in favor of Trump getting another term but things like this just make it look really appealing.

But as to Cuba, this will be strange to see.  As far as we know, their society hasn't changed since the revolution.  They're still driving the same cars and using the same cellphones.  It's probably less isolated than North Korea but the effect is similar.  Not sure what to expect, freedom itself might be overwhelming.

This just seems odd.  Yes, considering the problems going on everywhere, all protection services should be wary of attacks.  But Iran, drones and California seems a bit off.  From Iran, it seems more likely they'd use their sleeper cells to attack somewhere, and not just California.  Haven't we already taken out as many of their drones as possible?  This is where I'd be worried about Russia, China and anyone else trying something, especially if Iran gets all the blame.

□ [“Tracking Iran’s Suspicious Cryptocurrency Movements"]

Another part of the war that's more believable, even if it's still confusing.  Few people know anything about cryptocurrency but those who do say Iran uses a lot of it to fund terrorism around the world.  They've shut down the internet but are still using crypto.  Not sure how that works but to the extent I understand it, this actually makes it easier to track what the government is trying to do with crypto.

This is another thing that will probably be relevant with other nations.  I'm sure the US government uses crypto as well but for the moment, let's just focus on how BRICS is using it.  This could be a good way to launder money since few people would have any clue how that even works.  Legally or otherwise, you can transfer a few million to an ally or asset around the world without being noticed.

□ [“Liberal Woman Melts Down and Flees After Being Told Basic Facts About Iran and Palestine"]

For at least a few months, there have been numerous videos of people - often non-white, non-male - discussing Israel, Islam and Palestine with leftists who are very shocked at what they hear.  They just seem dazed by the experience, they can't even ask any questions to see if they've been missing something.  Safe to assume they'll forget this ever happened and carry on as always.

That said, I suspect that a number of liberals are finally starting to question what they've been told all their lives.  Anybody can point to things that don't make sense and ask questions about it but only one side refuses to even acknowledge the questions and continues to push their own agenda.  Why do gay groups support Palestine but there are not gay Palestinian groups?  Why are we suddenly glad that gas is getting more expensive when it's still cheaper than it was under Biden and we ignored that?  Is anything being done about the Somali tax theft?

It's almost inconceivable but it really does look like the left lives in a very small bubble yet somehow insists they're the knowledgeable ones about everything.  They've deliberately avoided looking into anything beyond what leftist elites tell them to believe.  That makes no sense and normal people can't believe anybody would do that but it's about the only explanation.  Or the most positive one, they might be the stupidest people on the planet and/or the most evil.

Being smart means you know that you don't know everything and that even experts can be wrong a lot of the time.  At least I'm capable of wondering if these videos are even real.  Maybe they're A.I. generated and I fall for it because they reinforce my opinions.  But the left just accuses everyone else of that and never questions it for themselves.

□ [“Jill Biden Claims Joe Made the ‘Unprecedented Decision’ Not to Seek Reelection in 2024"]

She's promoting a book and I assume she was paid millions of dollars in advance money she won't have to repay if the book bombs.  Ok, she has to say something but she's going with this?  It's easy to look back and see that Biden's decision was to stay in the race.  Everybody else wanted him out.  They didn't want him gone and deliberately ignore that issue but he was toast.  The fact that he was in that situation is evidence that he wasn't the one making any decisions.  The party would have ignored him anyway.

The party had rushed the primaries and the first debate because they knew he couldn't handle the pressure.  The left still tries to excuse his debate disaster that he'd just been travelling and was tired.  They ignore that he had finished travelling a couple weeks earlier and was taking the week off to do nothing except prepare for the debate.  Then he resisted the urge to drop out for the next month.  I still think they were planning to have Trump assassinated and hopefully that would end the discussion about Biden.  That didn't work so finally he was out.

The Clintons defended him until the end.  Obama barely spoke up except to vote 'present.'  At least publicly, Nancy Pelosi appeared to be the decision-maker and she waited a few weeks and then said it was over, he was out.  If George Clooney has any real status in the party, Democrats are in much bigger trouble than they realize but he was speaking out too in the media.  All these people were finally admitting to the problems Biden had which normal Americans had seen for years.  They would have all unanimously supported Harris no matter what but here their excuse were that she was coherent because of senility.

The Bidens have to keep fighting to be relevant but they don't have much to work with.  The party wants them forgotten because it raises questions about how they let this happen.  The Bidens won't be around much longer but the mess Joe made over the last 50 years is still here.  I'm still hoping Hunter will become so desperate for money that he'll just start spilling the beans on everyone involved.

Iran supporters (or ignorant puppets) around the world are starting to make attacks.  The guy who tried to throw bombs into a crowd in NYC has made a statement that Islam takes action when criticized.  There's going to be a lot more attempts to attack something nearby.  If there's any sane leftists out there, they'll have to ask why they're on the same side as Muslim terrorists.  Of course the insane ones will be looking for ways to do the same thing.

□ [“Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CN) Says Briefing on Iran Left Him 'Angry'"]

And those in charge have to figure out how to handle these people.  Blumenthal is 80 years old and has been in public office since Elvis Presley was still alive, he's definitely not one of the normal people.  He's very rich which also helps with Democrats.  But his public statements on this just sound like empty rhetoric, what he's expected to say regardless of the truth.

Oh, he's worried that we'll put boots on the ground despite everything being done so far being about not doing that.  I'm sure there's a chance it will happen but not a big one and it'll be about the Air Force wiping out everything from the shore to wherever the destination is before the troops move in.  Oh but there might be deaths!  Dude, they're government property, that's already accounted for.  And of course he goes on to whining about the "cost" which leftists never care about when it's their orders being given.

And he says Russia and China are also involved.  No doubt, they've been allies with Iran for a long time, they're tied together whether they like it or not.  I'm sure they're actively changing that relationship no matter which way they expect to go and may have already decided whether they'll stick with the mullahs or not.  My guess, no evidence, is that they'd prefer to stick with Iran but won't fight to keep the mullahs around.  If they keep the oil and other economic deals, they'd be fine with a new Persian government.

So Blumenthal's idiocy isn't going to help anybody and it shows the problems the left is having these days.  At least with Maduro, they'll forget about the country as soon as this conflict is over, it's just that Iran is going to take more time than Venezuela did.  In the meantime they have to side with whoever the current Ayatollah is which is tough to do when you're also promoting abortions for transgender homosexuals.

□ [“Iranian TV Says New Supreme Leader Moitaba Khamenei Was Wounded by US-Israel Strikes"]

It's Iranian TV so we can't trust it but they wouldn't have to say anything if *something* hadn't just happened.  Since taking power, he hasn't made any public appearances or even internet videos.  This is not a good time to go on vacation so there's a good chance he's injured or dead.  Doesn't say much about the Supreme Leader if he can't even keep the job for a week.

This is something I don't think we've seen since the early years of this century when we were invading Afghanistan and Iraq.  Muslims believe that God is on their side and have had enough victories in the last 1500 years to justify that but then there's the times where He isn't helping them.  This is also why groups like Al-Qaida and ISIS fall apart so quickly after someone - usually Trump - hits them hard.  Muslims are self-aware enough to realize that if God doesn't protect them, it's their own fault, but that makes it hard to build long-lasting organizations.  [Note:  I was never a scholar of Islam and have forgotten most of the stuff I used to know so I'm not citing anything specific, it's just the overall impression I've had for the last 20-some years.]

□ [“IRGC Says Any Nation Who Expels US and Israeli Ambassadors ‘Allowed’ to Navigate the Strait of Hormuz"]

The mullahs and the standard government are being pushed to the side, to the extent they aren't already crumbling.  The IRGC is calling the shots, it's probably their best chance to survive.  The Straits are quite important so on the one hand, it makes sense that they'd do something to try to keep it, but on the other hand, it seems a bit strange.  You're not going to beat the US military so trying to get some international terrorism isn't going to help.  So then why are you bothering with the Straits in the first place?

Trump has already made a statement on the issue that the US will handle the Straits.  Glad that's settled.  The US and Israel are still hitting Iran where they need to.  Apparently there are disagreements about what needs to be hit but that may just be noise.  Trump has spoken to Putin on the war, as well as Ukraine.  No idea what they actually said but officially Trump basically told Putin to not get involved or share intelligence with Iran.  Under normal circumstances I'd expect Putin to listen to that as long as Russia isn't affected but these aren't normal times so we'll see.

Why can't he do what Aunt Nancy does and invest their money to get richer?  Well maybe that's what the NPOs are for, they handle that for these people.  It's interesting how more attention is going to Newsom even as he tries to move over to winning the 2028 Democrat Primary.  I'm guessing he's going to be hit hard long before getting around to that and he never struck me as the sort of person who could handle that very well.

There hasn't been much attention for a while to the elites looting public funding or any of the scams that had been exposed a few months ago.  I'm guessing (or at least hoping) that those investigations are still on-going, they just aren't getting noticed because Iran is more important.  The information being uncovered will be used at the right time, long before upcoming elections.  At least I hope so, there's been too many other potential reveals in the last however-many years that went nowhere.

□ [“A Panicked Chuck Schumer Says SAVE Act Would Purge Millions From Voter Rolls"]

Meanwhile this is going on over in DC.  I'm ambivalent on the bill itself, the goal is any way which gets rid of people having their illegal votes counted.  But that's what Schumer is promoting by this idiotic opposition.  Most Americans want votes to be trusted and there's been too much fraud discovered to continue as we've been going.

The conflict over this is going on deeper than most of us can see.  We know leftists will oppose it and it's become clear that Democrats heavily rely on these fake votes but then there's the rest of the Uniparty.  I don't recall if any Republicans have been caught using this recently but I'm willing to bet at least some of them do.  It gets even more complicated, the politicians themselves may be partially or entirely ignorant of this, it's their handlers who take care of fake votes and they know what trouble they're in, especially considering DOGE and all the other investigations.

As always, I have to stress that it's taking way too long to release any useful information to the public and it just keeps building.  Trump himself is doing fine but everything depends on him and there's no stable progress to be made that way.  All the enemy politicians are still in power, all their secrets are still hidden and there's no sense that anything will change.  The left is panicking but they always do that.  Something different has to be done and it always seems like Trump falls back on staying quiet and following standard policies just at the time when he could be more like the Trump we know.

Harvey Weinstein Says #MeToo Was Just Greedy Women Chasing Payouts:  ‘March to the Money Pile’

□ [“Transformers Movie Reformat 1986"]

A.I. is quickly becoming better.  And more seductive.  I usually check every night if anybody's put out a decent cover song and although it's getting monotonous, it's still much better than it was six months ago.  It's also nice to hear actual music again, one thing that long-ago pushed me away from listening to much of anything.

I'm much less interested in what they'll do with movies or tv shows, even ones I used to like, but even someone as resistant as me can see potential.  They just put out a remake - or at least an edit - of the 1986 Transformers:  The Movie.  I saw it five times in theaters and had no clue it was a bomb until years later when I started using the internet.  But now there's a full version of the movie with actual good animation, something I never thought I'd see.

I've seen this movie get attention elsewhere on youtube recently and that seems very strange.  Did the few people who actually saw it as kids actually become so obsessed with it that it's the top priority as soon as we get A.I. access?  Even more important than the team-up between Daisy Duke and Kelly Bundy?

It's still quite unnerving how quickly this is growing and how useful it can be with no human interaction.  I criticize A.I. all the time but had no problems using it to look something up when I can't immediately recall specific details.  In general I think I limit it to questions where I'll recognize an answer being totally wrong but even when I see an error, it usually gets fixed when I re-write and re-ask the question.  It's almost spooky to consider where this might be in a year or so.

But I will suggest that it can become somewhat repulsive.  Let's say I come up with a random idea for A.I. to generate, let's say, re-do the conclusion to the Newhart tv show where it's reversed, Bob Newhart wakes up in bed with Joanna and says he just dreamed about being married to Emily.  I come up with ideas like that every day or so, that would very quickly become way too much footage for anyone to watch even if they're remotely interested.

And hundreds, thousands, millions of people are doing the same thing for whatever they come up with.  There'd be too much for anyone to even consider looking at, along with the fact that we aren't actually doing any work to make it happen.  It'll come to a point where we can write a script for it but it's still A.I. doing everything.  I just don't think most people would want to put up with that.
