□ [“Noam Chomsky Received $270,000 From Jeffrey Epstein, Described Their ‘Most Valuable’ Relationship"]

Another name to add to the list.  I've never known why but I have known for decades that he's a leftist icon.  How many other names are ready to drop?  And wtf didn't they drop months or years ago?  I don't want to keep harping on that - at least not right now - but Chomsky turns 97 in a few weeks and others involved are also old.  They could drop dead any moment of natural causes.  I would rather avoid that.

The Clintons are definitely targets here.  They just seem very defensive.  Given how blatantly they've lied for years, it's easy to guess why.  I just heard - and don't remember where - that Epstein was at Chelsea Clinton's wedding in 2010, so it's not exactly a distant relationship.  Liberals don't complain that Bill and Hillary were at Trump's wedding to Melania so they'll probably ignore this too, but that won't help much.

[Probably irrelevant but interesting to note, Trump is a little over two months older than Bill and about three weeks older than GWB.  Odd coincidence that all three of them would be almost exactly the same age.]

Because Bill has been around for so long and has been very successful, he's got a lot of ties to a lot of people who can find other ways to work with each other without public knowledge.  The left will defend him out of habit but they must be tired of it, especially when he's caught lying under oath - 'I did not have sex with that child slave' - and just the urge to get rid of these old people.  Those who know Bill are a lot more familiar about what he's into, so they don't want to keep going out to lie for him.

□ [“Pelosi Launches Another Dehumanizing Attack Against Trump After Calling Him 'Vile Creature'”]

Is there a point to doing this or has she just decided it's time to go senile?  I'm guessing she's still basically coherent but what other motivation would there be to decide to go out and talk about Trump and not really have anything to say?  Perhaps her puppet Hakeem Jeffries isn't available now that it's known he got money from Epstein.  Nancy's very rich so she probably wouldn't need that cash.

There's still not a lot to point to but I think we're getting a sense of how the elites have been laundering money all this time.  It's just come out that AOC has been raising money for turkeys every Thanksgiving but the money doesn't go to any charity, it goes straight to her campaign.  She could just buy a few turkeys for a photo op and keep the rest of the money.  How rich is she now?  Meanwhile the DNC just had to get a $15 million loan.

It's not just the Epstein connections, George Soros' son has suddenly moved to Niger, one of the poorest countries on the planet, but one without an extradition treaty to the US.  With Ukraine getting close to finally admitting they lost, all the sources for money laundering for the left are suddenly unavailable.  More than anything, I wonder if that's what Nancy is truly angry about, but she can't admit it in public, so she just yammers on about Trump.

□ [“Sen. Elissa Slotkin Admits Trump Never Issued an Illegal Order – Babbles About hitler and Nuremberg"]

I'm guessing it was pointed out to these people that they were encouraging sedition to disobey orders.  Otherwise what's the point of doing this?  Where were you several years ago when Joe Biden ordered the military to be jabbed with untested chemicals or be kicked out?  Where were you several years ago when Joe Biden ordered the military to not defend the southern border against invaders?  Wow, suddenly 'disobey illegal orders' became a pick-and-choose.

So the goal was most likely to encourage the military to betray their commanding officers.  It's not going to be just the POTUS either.  I'm sure UCMJ is very thought-out on how that does or doesn't work and that's what these people were trying to do.  They want an insurrection and there are serious punishments for this so she needs to rush out and say that's not really what she meant.

The left is really trying to get their revolution going.  Partially it just comes natural to them, they're the left, but also the Trump administration is getting closer to being able to reveal their secrets and they need more defense.  There's still three years of this guy left to go and look at how much damage he's done to leftism in just the last year.

And I'm not sure how likely it is, but doesn't the basic 'disobey illegal orders' apply to everyone else?  Including the left?  Not in the literal UCMJ sense but 'abetting a criminal' is still a crime, even if they're high-ranking Democrats.  They can't anywhere doing this quietly and if they get louder, they're easy targets for the military, the police and the rest of us who are fed up with them.  For almost exactly 21 years, I've known we were headed towards Civil War 2.0 and here we are.

□ [“Putin Supports Trump’s New Peace Deal; Zelensky Pressured To Sign on by Thanksgiving"]

Ukraine has the same incentive they've always had, they're losing.  Russia keeps taking cities, trapping troops, all that stuff.  Those who follow military technology have probably learned a lot about the use of drones in this war.  I can understand that they'd be a useful tool but I still don't get how that's a game changer.  Mostly because anything I can think of that they could do, the other side would be working out a defense.  Push it too far and there's no point to sending out troops and you're left with a real-life video game.  Sorry, got off topic.

The EU really wants to keep this war going but it's tough to figure out how.  We already know they'll send troops in on the first day of peace and probably already have Ukraine ready to join NATO so Russia has no reason to accept anything they have to offer.  Also Trump has promised (yet again) to cut off supplies and weapons if Ukraine doesn't sign this deal, so Europe would also get dumped if they don't back off.

Thinking about it, the Europeans are the real problems here.  They actively support the war and want to get involved but it's been almost four years and they still haven't bothered to improve their pathetic militaries.  They're just relying on the US to handle everything and I hear the Americans are now lead by someone who's not trustworthy, so why is Europe still doing this?

And Russia just has no reason to go with the deal either.  I'm sure Putin wants peace but he's fine with continuing to move forward, with or without Trump.  Russia doesn't yet have all the territory it wants back from Ukraine so why not take that first and then start peace talks?  And why is Trump involved in the first place?  I don't care what other wins he has, I don't think I'll ever get over this nonsense.
