Someone made this video and most likely recorded it in a hotel room that costs about $18,000 a night. Was it all for the sake of feeding rumors, or for confusing everyone, or for tricking some overconfident journalist into the ultimate feat of Fake News? The only thing we can say definitively is that based on the room in which it appears to have been filmed, this can’t possibly be the real thing. Probably. But if you know anything at all about where this video came from, or who made it, please do get in touch"""""
After all that still not sure.
Wow
I am starting to see the light.... Epstein and Sean diddy Combs.... hmmmm

Jeff Childers was on a roll this morning, so I'm going to post another excerpt from his news letter today explaining a different perspective on Trump's war on the swamp ..... He is trying to finally end the cold war.
These thoughts are mine: If you love freedom, you will love what's coming .... If you want to be coddled and protected by an invisible government hand you will be scared to death of what may be coming.
The unknowns of what's going to happen with things like AI are scary for everybody, but better we try to control it that sit back and watch China unleash it on us.
Childers:
"Let us now turn to another remarkable “guest essay” in yesterday’s Times, this one headlined, “The End of the University as We Know It.” Superficially, the piece complained about how DOGE defunding massive science grants to big universities is destroying democracy, or something. But more interestingly, it evidenced the theme I introduced in yesterday’s bonus post: we are now shifting into the second phase of Trump’s Swamp-draining.
Looking at last week’s news of new cuts of deep-state agencies that you never heard of, or thought were just stale artifacts, like the Voice of America, I suggested that what Trump is really doing is finally ending the Cold War. Ex-spooks and neocon allies have kept it quietly going for the last fifty years, covertly pouring ever more taxpayer money and engaging in ever more skulduggery and lethal dirty tricks all around the world in the perverse name of “freedom.”
So it was no surprise that this “Universities are dying” article invoked the Cold War. We are finally getting down to the truth. “World War II and the Cold War,” the article earnestly argued, “fundamentally transformed universities into engines of state power, binding research to military and technological supremacy.”
The author argued that as though it were a good thing. “The Cold War effort had demonstrated the strategic value of academic research,” it stressed. “Universities became hubs of government-backed knowledge production. In 1957, funding from the National Science Foundation stood at $40 million; by 1968, it had climbed to nearly $500 million.”
“The modern research university,” it continued, “was of real value — even a great strength of America, as an instrument of soft power.” In other words, they see the University as an essential cog in the military-industrial complex’s endless war. What endless war? The Cold War. And Trump is taking it down. “If, during the Cold War,” the article continued, “the government funded universities as a way of strengthening America, Mr. Trump’s second administration treats them as a threat to be dismantled.”
Indeed. Many of us consider the universities as a threat. It’s not exactly a secret. But even among Republican presidents during the post-Cold War period, only President Trump has been brave enough to really tackle the problem instead of just nibbling around the margins. “Conservatives have been trying” — and failing — “to reshape the American university since the federal government began funding it in earnest in the mid-20th century. But now,” the author breathlessly argued, “the Trump administration appears prepared to destroy it. “
And how is Trump doing this? By taking away unlimited government largesse. “The university,” it admitted, “thrives on public funding. The result, if all goes through, will be nothing less than the permanent diminishment of research universities.”
Late in the piece, as if the author noticed one more sticky note pinned to his draft outline, it finally reminded readers of the other reason for our university system: educating students. But DOGE’s cuts have spared, for now, the horrible student loan problem, which is a separate problem. Withdrawing covert funding for a long-dead war disguised as ’scientific research’ will only help students.
A major strategic prong is emerging from the fog of bureaucratic war, obscured during the last 60 days in the waterfall of Trump’s executive orders, mass layoffs, and rapid-fire agency reorganizations. Trump’s unstated strategy is a war against the Cold War. Trump has always campaigned as a war-ender, and now he’s taking on the biggest war of them all, a war that traps us in perpetual conflict and holds us on the brink of nuclear war with Russia and China.
The Cold War ended everywhere but in America. Trump is finally shutting it down — for good.
If any more evidence were needed, consider this recent presentation by Intellectual Dark Web diva Eric Weinstein, a PhD, classic liberal, mathematical physicist, economist, public speaker, and former managing director of Thiel Capital. The YouTube, uploaded two days ago, was titled, “Why the West is waking up from a 70 year nap (17:22).”
“We are in a situation in which the post-World War II order has fallen,” Eric told the audience. The post-World War II era could also be called the Cold War era. “It’s a very long period of time I’ve called ’The Great Nap,’” he said.
Watch the whole thing. Eric gets around to the main thrust of his argument in the second half of the 17-minute talk (but the first-half buildup is worth it). He quoted a Biden Administration official who had a hot-mike moment last year. In a conversation about regulating the AI industry (to death), the unnamed official told AI venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, “During the Cold War, we classified entire areas of physics and mathematics.”
What? Why? The official explained. “It took these areas out of the research community, and entire branches of physics basically went dark and didn’t proceed. If we decide we need to,” he warned Andreessen, “we’re going to do the same thing to the science underneath AI.”
In other words, the United States government — for national security — classified not just particular projects, but entire fields of scientific thought and academic study deemed too potentially dangerous to pursue. It halted science and brought culture, art, and everything else to a dead standstill. Meanwhile, as we saw in the previous article, year by year it ballooned grants into ‘safe,’ officially sanctioned subjects, sternly steering scientists into safe but unproductive scientific cul-de-sacs.
Did you ever wonder why, as we just found out this year, the last 25 years of scientific research into the causes of Alzheimer’s were moored to a single wrong theory, with any competing ideas squelched, defunded, and canceled? Now you know why. National security. Decided by who? Unelected bureaucrats deeply buried like anonymous termites into the deep state’s Cold War apparatus.
“The US government,” Weinstein declared, “intentionally stagnates science, chooses designated winners, and classifies and destroys the competition.” Which is exactly what the Biden Administration was planning to do to the artificial intelligence industry. For safety.
Weinstein ‘steelmanned’ the government, meaning he attributed the best possible motives and still dismantled it. Even supposing the government has been acting in our best interest, even allowing they’ve successfully created the longest peacetime period in human history, it is still quietly and slowly killing us. As Eric correctly noted, the greatest advancements in human progress, health, and justice have all occurred during or just after periods of violent revolution.
Stagnation causes fertile fields to become swamps. Although it may have begun with the best of intentions, the Cold War has produced the deepest and most dangerous swamp in history. It nearly drowned us all.
Now, at long last, President Trump is draining the swamp.
In spite of the not-so-subtly implied risk, Weinstein remains brilliantly optimistic. Granted, it will be bumpy. Maybe even very bumpy. But — as I speculated in my nearly viral post about our stuck culture — when the government-imposed dam holding it all back finally breaks, it will unleash a tsunami of progress and prosperity unparalleled in modern history. What Weinstein described could fairly be called a “golden age.”
Maybe that’s not just a campaign slogan. Friends, we surely live in the most fascinating of times."

All this theater, and yet not a single "libtard" responsible for all the shenanigan's from 2020-2024 went to jail.
Not a single one is even on notice. (And dont make me laugh on Epstein files)
The whole Trump thing is complete BS.
The globalists needed the conservative crowd to do things they would never do under Democrats, and they surely got it! Just look at the posts here!!!
(And the MIC is salivating at more bombing of brown people in the middle east)

Warning ..... This is NOT satire .... It's an actual bill.
It's starting to look like TDS is not the actual syndrome, it's more of a symptom of a deeper mental problem.
We can clearly see that now, the same folks are exhibiting MDS, or as they call it EDS .... Elon Derangement Syndrome ..... Which seems to be part of the same general mental problem.
They are attempting to better define it so it can be made part of the detection of the woke mind virus that's causing these things.
Hmmmm ..... maybe they can talk pharma into a vaccine for it ...... Ok, that part was satire.

The truth is the toilet was in full flush mode before Trump took office. The question is that whether he claws us back out of the toilet. People that didn't see a problem until Trump took office are either too stupid to listen to or liars not worth listening to.

I put Irans military in the same bucket as Iraq's was huge and pretty much worthless. maybe its time we stomped their shit in a bit.

I think of it as .22LR compared to our .338 lapua mag. I really don't want to get hit by .338 lapua mag. But I also kinda don't want to get hit by .22LR.

I feel like i should show the comparison between the two for those that don't' know.

agreed but if you want to win a war fast you start out taking out the leadership... all of them, every time they move someone else up, you then kill them.I feel like i should show the comparison between the two for those that don't' know.
You keep telling yourself that.

Why be mean, our country was created because of all thoughts. It’s what created the most powerful country in history bar none.
