□ [“French Police Intercept Illegals on Inflatable Boat Trying to Cross the Channel Into the UK"]

They're just moving around as they choose.  It says there's been about a dozen recent incidents like this, the French usually just let them go anyway.  They usually avoid involvement because of the danger and risk to life.  Just shoot the boat!  These people won't be capable of swimming the channel so that will solve the problem.  For all these centuries, the French haven't been able to invade Britain but the people who conquered France are allowed to do that?  Although I guess I'm surprised they aren't just using the Channel Tunnel.

The French prime minister is at least talking about the problems they have, drug gangs who bribe, blackmail or intimidate public officials and police.  Not that they're going to do anything about it but at least he's admitting it.  The implication is that upcoming French elections will be hit by right-wing candidates that actually promise to do something about this.  It sounds nice but this is still France so, well...

Even worse, this is where each of us has our own internal struggles as we watch France and Europe deal with this.  I think very few people are willing to outright say 'they're done, it's over.'  But at some point that's going to happen, anything that is not infinite comes to an end.  As always, the government is doing everything it can to fight the people so that means siding with the invaders.  And face it, other than massacuring all the Muslims and their leftist supporters, what exactly can be done to turn this around?

□ [“James Gunn’s DC Farewell Is Already Written, Per Insiders"]

That should be expected.  The take-over of Warner Bros. going on might be delayed but it will happen.  If it does't, the company is too broken and the collapse will happen anyway, so they need to get rid of their high-paid producers who bring them little besides failure.  Even if they said they'd wait for Gunn's contract to be done, I don't know if he could believe them.

It's still strange to see how much attention I've been giving to DC products which I have no interest in seeing.  I've heard youtube commentary but otherwise haven't seen a DC product since Dark Knight in 2008.  Even the comics characters I used to care about are almost as far away from my interests these days.  But they're still part of my life and are very helpful in illustrating this disaster.

The new Green Lantern tv show has just started.  Reportedly the first episode had good ratings but we also heard Supergirl had a good opening weekend.  Apparently the show is completely *woke* and even Supergirl didn't have that problem.  At this point I have to think half the audience at the opening is there to make videos about how horrible it is, or paid studio shills.

But this is what Gunn has been reduced to.  He was supposed to make a ton of movies and tv shows, very few of which have ever come out.  Or even gotten started.  I don't get why they're bothering to let him get through another Superman movie before his contract is up, it sounds like the sort of thing he'd deliberately mess up just to prove he can.  We'll see how long it take to get rid of him, a lot probably depends on the ratings for the rest of Green Lantern.

It will also depend on how many secrets he has on the other people in charge and I'm sure has a lot.  Look at how defensive everyone was for him after his tweets about raping children came out.  That will help him a lot but there are limits.  It took years for Disney to get rid of Kathleen Kennedy, I doubt Gunn has that much to fall back on or so many high-ranking people willing to protect him to save themselves.

□ [“Jill Biden Entertains the Possibility That Joe Was Drugged Before 2024 Debate"]

She's not really considering it, she's asked about it and answers "who knows?"  In theory she's a doctor but that doesn't mean she knows anything.  She just expresses how worried she was by Joe's performance, then dragged him to a campaign event after the debate instead of getting him checked out.  'Til death do us part' might need a little help.

The elites have seperate version of "marriage" than normal people and that lines up with leftists who seem to oppose the basic concept.  Or at least they want to apply it to everyone.  One man/one woman is Wrong, anything else is perfect.  So far they haven't figured out a way around that but not for lack of trying.  This is why they can enjoy adultery and going through multiple marriages.  It's probably why so many high-ranking liberal women marry men who are obviously gay, like Nancy Pelosi.  This also lets them get incredibly wealthy.

Women are less likely to want to deal with the public scrutiny of fame and power but they like the benefits.  Recently I've been noticing how many of these politicians seem to be doing what their wives want rather than what actually supports the voters.  I've also assumed that's why last year's protest motto was 'no kings' instead of 'no royalty whatsoever.'  No, the queens intend to keep their place, they'll just sacrifice the men to do it.

Of course the queens have to fight it out amongst themselves.  Hillary Clinton, Tipper Gore, whoever John Kerry's married to these days, Michelle Obama, just to name a few.  You could make a case that they've run the show and sent their husbands out to promote the new liberal ideology, abortion, global warming, race, complaining about rich people while being very rich themselves.  There's a reason the queen is the most powerful figure on the chessboard.

But they need to work out who the real queen is, they just don't want the public to know the details.  So here we see Joe is done so Jill has nothing else to fall back on.  Hillary never gets asked why she was so close to Harvey Weinstein, he was just doing his job as her servant, much like her husband does.  And as elitist women, they're always more than a little interested in witches.  Conspiracies build on each other the more you look into it, meanwhile their husbands have to do the actual work and take the blame because that's what men are there for.

□ [“DNC Chair Ken Martin Insists Democrats Are United, Pushes ‘Big Tent’ Talking Point"]

Right, those people who insist on getting rid of the senate are right there with people trying to elect senators.  The depressing part is that they really are on the same side.  They don't give any real thought to what they're saying, no consideration of how they contradict each other, and they'll switch beliefs when they're told to.  Just look at how many rich people support this party.

Everything about Martin comes off as being a puppet but just the fact that everyone agreed to install him in this position indicates some ability.  Specifically that he's able to work with anybody.  Not saying he has any real character but it's gotten him this far and he doesn't need to convince any voters.  Essentially he's just *there* but at least they can rely on that.

To an extent he's just doing what Joe Biden was supposed to do, be a place-holder until they get a new leader of the proper gender and skin color.  It'll probably work out for Martin about the same.  If they can steal enough elections this November, he'll be able to retire as a victor or be pushed out by the 'new wave.'  If the party doesn't win, of course he's done.  The fact that he's going with this 'big tent' rhetoric shows how weak his position is and how much illusion the whole party is running on.  Election fraud is the only hope they have, soon we'll find out if it's enough.
