Yeah absolutely. Turnout or lack of it decides everything.
For sure. Kamala getting as many votes as she did shows that the propaganda and fraud machine can get literally anybody close to the finish line. I guess my point is, if Newsome wins, it is likely because everything is already lost anyway. If Vance or whoever else can't form a compelling enough case to beat a candidate of that extremely low quality then there's a fair chance it wouldn't even matter if they won because they arent meaningfully different enough from the swamp anyway.
Newsome is pretty abysmally unpopular. That being said, if we continue at this rate, whoever the other nominee is may not be better and may have a significant number of people refusing to vote for them.
Yeah I agree. The terrible execution of the cover up makes me inclined to believe it was not the initial intention.
We may never know for sure, but personally I think one of the following is true.
-
Trump and company were legitimately 100% ignorant of the likely reality that Epstein was a Mossad sponsored operation and are keeping it under wraps either to protect our "greatest ally" of their own accord or because upon getting in they've been threatened by them to keep it from getting out.
-
The sheer number of high ranking politicians and celebrities that are implicated would potentially cause mass unrest and/or total collapse that orange man does not want to risk or be associated with.
I personally lean toward a variant of #1. Personally I still find it extremely unlikely that orange man himself is implicated. And i do hang on to (perhaps cope) that him and the Bonginos of the world actually intended to release it and something is stopping them from doing so. Their behavior in my opinion is not in any way consistent with them planning from the start to cover it up.
They could have said that right after getting in and most people would have been disappointed but probably would have believed it. Instead we are getting "he killed himself" and "there is no list."
Really want to hear JD comment on this. Not holding out any hope that he won't give the same spiel as the others. But his remarks on it have to be the most clear cut and hard to take back.
A drastic righting of the ship on border policy would at least buy us the time to free us of our other issues later. Lose on the border and it doesn't matter whether patriots or pedophiles rule the country; it will be a shithole regardless.
Putin is right when he says Presidents come and go, but the policy stays the same. Regardless of whatever they come intending to do when they get in, when their term starts men in black suits show up and tell them how things are gonna be run.
Perhaps an exaggeration, but orange man is doing whatever he can to make that look like the full and unadulterated truth lately.
If that's his job, he's doing a terrible job at it. If he indeed has any job from some shadowy entity controlling him, it's to play the hero and do just enough to placate people while still purposely not doing enough to jeopardize their power.
But all that does is establish a potential motive for him to do it. It doesn't overcome all of the circumstances surrounding it.
"Oh, we just happened to take him off suicide watch."
"Oh, the guy in the cell over heard him screaming."
"Oh, the cameras happened to be malfunctioning and the guards were asleep."
Riiiight....
Did the deep state really put up much of a fight to keep them out? Hegseth is really the only one I would say a big fight was put up over. Multiple instances where they tried to sink him with contrived scandals, both before and after his confirmation.
The deep state desperately did not want Gaetz and they got their wish there. Bondi I don't recall any significant opposition aside from democrat partisan stuff.
Here's the thing. I could have potentially believed (but still been skeptical of) that excuse if they immediately went with that from the outset. Instead we got "the list is on my desk" and "there are 10s of thousands of hours of video of children being abused." They've long missed their chance to credibly claim that all the evidence had been destroyed before they got in.
Hell, Kash and Bongino are both trying to assert he killed himself. That is not a "they destroyed the evidence before we could see it" issue. That is a "they are deeply compromised" issue. Or being blackmailed. Functionally the same.
Epstein is like a 95-5 issue. I don't think I've ever met anyone who legitimately believes he killed himself. Many leftoids were happy to be quiet about it for years while Biden was in power, but now that it's Trump in power they will absolutely be loud about it.
And if Trump thinks his supporters will be quiet about it, he is sorely mistaken. The concept of the world being ruled by a cabal of elite pedophiles is a notion many on the right have had before Trump even came on the scene. People won't stop believing that, especially under such sketchy circumstances, at this point.
That all being said, the way this has all gone down is very curious to me. If they had truly planned to cover it up all along, I don't think they would have made a fuss about the fact that they would release it. And I don't think Bondi would have said things like "the list is on my desk" and "there are 10s of thousands of hours of footage of children being abused." Seems way too uncoordinated for it to have been the plan to cover it up from the start.
Makes me wonder if they were legitimately clueless and ignorant to the nature of the Epstein operation and then got approached by Mossad like "don't blow our cover or X, Y, and Z will happen." Indeed, videos have surfaced of Kash and Bongino doing the standard Israel dick sucking routine, so it would make sense.
Just a shit sandwich all around, and supports the notion that there may be no political solution to this, or that if there is, much more control is needed to enact it. Also does more to show that our so-called greatest ally is anything but, but the people who still live in that fantasy land would never believe the obvious fact that Epstein was connected to Mossad anyway.
Yep. Was pretty sure it was a Mossad operation before, but now it would be tough to convince me otherwise.
they're 80 IQ
Feeling generous today I see.
Never heard of this case, but assuming you've represented everything fully and accurately, people virtue signaling over it are retarded and out of line. If you want to take the "porn bad in general" stance that's totally fine, but to treat him as eternally morally reprehensible for what seems like a trivial accident that might not even be his fault is a bit much.
And even if he was aware, the whole "5 days before 18 you're an irredeemable monster but 1 day after is totally cool" thing is blatantly retarded on its face.
I'm not really talking about the concept of certain obvious factors like that contributing to random infant deaths. It should go without saying that very rarely things like that could happen. More so the notion that there is a "syndrome" that just randomly kills infants for no good reason at all. That is asinine. There is always a reason. The term has clearly evolved into something that functions to sweep other issues under the rug.
SIDS
Mark that down as one of those things where I can't help but think "how the fuck are normies actually retarded enough to be gaslit into believing this is an actual thing that just happens." Holy shit how retarded can you get.
This is the thing. People act as if either the BBB passes or some thousand year lolbert Reich of sound fiscal policy will begin, as if those are the two options. The unfortunate reality is either we get some variant of this bill, or we will get something that the swamplords will all agree to override a Trump veto on.
If you want sound fiscal policy, the best way forward is to continue trying to take over the GOP, not making a third party that will just guarantee Democrat control for a few cycles at least.
Doesn't mean the BBB is perfect or even good, but there are good aspects that are quite important. Even the 1% remittance tax that they cucked on to reduce is better than the current status quo.
It's definitely a bit of both. People are retarded and many do indeed keep voting for politicians that champion this. However take Italy for example. Meloni campaigned on being much more anti migrant and there has not been any meaningful slowdown of the invasion. Or if it has, it's been minor. And no major steps have been made to reverse the invasion.
Take Ireland as well. The population overwhelmingly is against more immigrants yet the invasion continues.
They are so insulated from the consequences of their own actions that they will essentially never learn until they are literally getting raped in the street by the very minorities they welcome.
The saddest part is even then some of the dont learn.
Did this study account for the fact that leftoids who have taken 8 boosters are more likely to be obese purple haired cat ladies who will naturally have less children anyway? I would find it very easy to believe the jabs reduced fertility but I genuinely think the subset of women who did not take it would be ones naturally more likely to have more children in the first place.
Yeah they are retarded, but half of the problem is your "opposition" party is barely any better. Okay, maybe a lot better, but still dogshit.
Yeah that's the thing. At this rate, if the shit trajectory continues, it wont be feasible. But if that ends up happening then it probably doesnt even matter anymore because full on accelerationism may become the better option.
