It's not that they couldn't make Blazing Saddles now. The secret is they couldn't make it back then either. They've been lying to us all along.

□ [“UK PM Starmer Floats Sending Troops to Greenland for Security to Keep Trump From Seizing It"]

Would these be the troops you want to send to Ukraine or are these separate troops?  Sounds like you're preparing to deploy a lot of young men and still don't have any real justification for it.  And you don't need their consent either.

I do assume there's a genuine reason Trump has been talking about wanting Greenland, probably something to do with the Arctic and hunting down those terrorist-supporting illegal elves Santa has slaving away in his workshop, but I can't stop thinking that this is just a hoax.  Trump is suckering Europe as an excuse to kick the US out of NATO so they can promote their wars without him.  Then they'll find out they don't have any worthwhile military forces and we won't be called to help.

The UK has 18,000 combat capable troops and another 60,000 that don't have the training, equipment or the will to fight.  They can get arrested for praying in silence, why would they risk their lives for this country?  And why aren't the new Muslim citizens eager to enlist?  Why don't you even ask why they're not eager?

I'm pretty sure the UK and EU are on Trump's list of targets, governments that need to be taken down.  I'm sure he's doing what he can to help the citizens do the actual work but these tyrants need to fall.  I'm half-tempted to try making a list of what governments need to fall in the next six months to have a world-wide celebration of the Declaration of Independence.

□ [“Trump Issues a Dire Warning to Cuba as He Cuts Off All Oil and Money to the Dictatorship"]

Oh boy, he's got another target ready.  My understanding is that they've been basically supported by Venezuela since Hugo Chávez took over back in 1999 and they probably didn't expect that to change.  So now they've had problems over the last week or so.  Probably also been cut off from frauded US taxpayer money so they have sudden financial problems in addition to the problems they already had.  The guy who's been in charge for the last six years was born after the revolution and is only the third person to be in charge of Cuba since the revolution.  At least the Castros knew what life was like without them.  Similar to how Gorbachev was the only Soviet leader who had been born after their revolution and he was the last one they had.

As critical as I am on things Trump hasn't gotten done here at home and his foolishly getting involved with other countries, these take-down of tyrants is something I totally support.  I suspect that these tyrants have been attacking the US for a long time anyway so his wiping them out is justified.  No wars, just big hits at the top of their social ladders.  The US will do what we can to help afterwards but otherwise let these nations solve their own problems.  Notice how the media is deliberately not asking any Venezuelans what they think of Trump helping them.  They're also paying very little attention to Iran.

No news about Iran, at least nothing we can trust.  But we're told the protests are huge and all across the country.  The mullahs are ordering them punished and at least some guards are refusing.  If true, it's still more of a sign that their end is near.  So was 2025 about setting up a functional military that could handle these dictatorships and ready to do the work by 2026?

□ [“Feds Release List of Violent Criminal Aliens Arrested in Minnesota — Child Rapists, Sodomizers, Killers Roamed Free for Years"]

One of the reasons for these ICE raids on 'sanctuary cities' which of course the left needs to ignore.  They'll probably be the last people to realize things have changed while everybody else is getting by without having to deal with these criminals.  Or lose taxpayer money to fund them.  Or pay more for businesses to handle them.  This is one of those impacts on society that might be so big it's impossible to see it clearly.

The media is hiding this, the city and state governments are trying to lie about this.  I'm curious what local businesses are doing about these protests.  They might be attacked if they say the wrong things.  So they all keep trying to promote the illusion that there's something justified about attacking ICE - and letting us know that they consider anyone who disagrees with them is a legitimate target - but they really have nothing to fall back on.  It's also becoming increasingly obvious that the majority of these protestors are old white women and their servants.

They've gotten away with this mass self-delusion for years so it's understandable why they think it'll work this time but it's still mind-boggling how they don't see how this will fail them.  I saw a leftist site today trying to convince everybody to go on strike and although some people pointed out how it wouldn't happen, nobody even dared to mention that they were expected to do that for a week November.  All these demands with no basis in reality, yet they completely ignore the results or lack-thereof, which is why these illegal alien criminals had such leeway for so long.

□ [“Peter Doocy Shows Footage of Himself Being Hit By Similar Sonic Weapon Recounted by Venezuelan Soldier"]

Interesting.  This footage appeared to be a directional weapon.  The effect was immense heat.  Not sure how that would be relevant to a sonic weapon but it's certainly a useful tool anyway.  The footage was at Quantico, a Marine base in Virginia.  A Marine was shown at the beginning and someone else looked like a service member but was too covered up to determine what branch but this was 2013 so it makes me wonder if any of my teams at the time had a weapon like this.

I don't think this would be a game-changer to war the way drones are but these weapons do come across as real-life sci-fi.  It does seem kind of strange that it's now becoming public - despite the footage from 2013 - but it may just be time for it to come out.  Can't be using it so heavily and still expect it to be kept secret.  Also makes you wonder what else we've got.

I'll assume other countries have these weapons too.  It might also be too expensive or difficult to power for any major use of it.  It's just interesting that we're finally getting a clue what new technology is being brought to the warzone.
