The USA is about war against the world (including their allies). Trump will double as a General in the war against Americans.

Hi Julian! It appears Trump did learn something as he chose Vance instead of Rubio which enraged the Bush Rs. Perhaps that's also a sign that he'll nominate far more moderate Rs for Cabinet posts. I'm actually pleased he wasn't killed because that would have unleashed a nightmare. The article I published yesterday was actually aimed at my readers who support Trump as it further documents why/how Russia's being made great again. I also just finished reading Simplicius's latest and commented on the points he raised. The real key action will be forthcoming at the BRICS Summit at Kazan where the new BRICS payment regime is sure to be announced as it's going through trails as I type.

I don't usually get exposed to BigLie Media, but needed travel brought me together with my mother-in-law who tunes into FOX News, so I've had that in the background often over the last few days listening to its falsification of history and political reality, which really doesn't differ much from what I conceive as that broadcast by "Liberal" media--neither go to the root cause of the USA's deterioration which is the financialization of the economy that began in the late 1960s, and even earlier when deep history is dug into. And the drama will continue as the Ds purge Biden and nominate who knows who, Newsom is my best guess as Harris is compliant but a turd. I'm voting Stein.

You will find my next two special articles germane I think.

I also highly suggest Hudson's last two items at his website, https://michael-hudson.com/2024/07/all-of-our-wealth-has-been-coming-from-you/

and https://michael-hudson.com/2024/07/nato-focus-from-defensive-to-offensive/

And then there's this essay in English by Karaganov that's also a must read, https://karaganov.ru/en/decades-of-wars/?ysclid=lylxflq7yk981676175

Will NATO act before Trump can do anything is now a major question.

I think it’s true that voters are often led to believe that Republicans and Democrats offer something unique and different. Unfortunately, governments are made up of humans who often focus on the present. If they could think more about the future and actually work together, we might see better outcomes.

Most people fear that which is "unique and different"

'Biden's Neocons will be replaced by Trump's Neocons.'

Yeah, exactly. There's no fundamental difference between the two. They're both equally horrible.

Voters must realize this and vote for 3rd-party candidates!

I was wondering if "Trump 2.0" was J.D. Vance, his veep pick. Ugh. He's been a worthless senator, but I really don't wish him on the rest of the country.

Good luck on the clean up for your new kitty!

Vance is emotionally damaged.

I'd say the artist's depiction of cannons facing off, missed an important detail. Hillary had cannons aimed on Bernie while he stood there paralyzed with his bean shooter.

He will be absolutely terrible on foreign policy for certain he is an absolute tool of the AIPAC crazies. Here is the thing though, shitlibs are an extreme domestic menace, who are literally turning murderous, and who must be stopped. Only Trump can do that, I was going to abstain from voting before the assassination attempt, but the hour is too late domestically to do anything other than totally extinguish the shitlib "progressive" movement. Yes our own people are our own unique responsibility as American citizens, sorry outgroup lovers.

You mistake who was behind the Trump near miss. The kid was set up as a patsy.

I don’t disagree where did you get that impression?

A lot of places.

He's the exact type they pick: outcast, misfit nerd (won highschool math & science $500 award), bullied, friendless

Connection: Was featured in a Blackrock commercial in 22 or 23

Ability: Such a bad/dangerous shot he was removed from school gun group on his 1st day.

He probably didn't even fire the near miss.

Evidence: There was 1 shot they know of fired from ~500 yards. Were there others?

Access: Ladder to roof left in place. SS/cops inside bldg instead of on top. Witnesses: saw Crook approach, climb, crawl across roof & reported to police. Who failed to radio & get Trump out

Apologies for double post. Connection intermittent. Tried to remove 1: both disappeared. Reposted, 1 returned. 😵🤣 I give up!

A superior post — concise, with a reference to Brian Berletic telling insight.

I’d just add: there have been, and always have been, disagreements between the elites (“factions”). There have been differences of opinion between Talmudic rabbis for two thousand years.

The uniparty benefits from a rich palette of alternative tactical choices for sowing societal chaos and the ensuing (from their standpoint, richly deserved) opportunity to buy (or seize) assets on the cheap.

I wonder what conspiracy theories you're referring to vis a vis the assassination attempt. There's video footage of the shooter crawling across the roof and people trying to get the police to do something about it! They managed to spot and kill him quickly enough once he'd fired off a few shots at Trump. These are the kind of events that make people who DON'T see the collusion/incompetence look like conspiracy theorists
