The only election in recent memory with any hope on offer. We shall see whether it is a false one for Argentina soon enough.

SEC's tip line: we only listen to former SEC people and their buddies. Like all financial regs, it's just making the scams worse.

The families of the drafted understandably want their sons and fathers to come home. This is likely the beginning of the end, as when these kinds of protests are not listened to, they usually escalate to draft riots the moment a major setback occurs in war.

BONUS: Time Magazine essentially comes out and says it: the war is lost.

Calls the Russia - China - Iran alliance the new "Axis of Evil"

Pretty normal stuff. Interesting that wasting hostages is SOP though:

Blumenthal also emphasized the role of Israel’s notorious “Hannibal Directive,” requiring that Israeli captives must either be killed or rescued to avoid allowing them to be used as bargaining chips

Meanwhile the Biden Regime has ceased openly advocating for genocide, so that's something I suppose.

Doing precisely what one would expect, of course. Despite the Georgian Dream party doing several things to please the Americans over time, this is of course the reward. As usual, there is no negotiation possible with the USA, as only slavish obedience to insane demands is tolerated.

Good chaser to the previous article. Sounds like a full court press against your liberties, as always with the gangsters running the modern state.

UPDATE: EU Commission caught red handed astroturfing for this bill.

USA still in the habit of using its' vassals as a laboratory for tyranny, I see.

As observed, massive discrimination against white men, who form the vast majority of the skilled labor pool. And people are mystified why labor force productivity is going into the toilet.

Good luck with that, lol

Not only can they not find contractors to repair this turkey, I'm sure the readiness reports themselves are fraudulent. Likely 9/10 of these things are boat anchors.

Pretty much the norm in every single city in the USA. Fascinating to see any newspaper dare to say it out loud; I'm guessing the byline is in for a world of hurt soon.

Shoulda looked at having a GAN too, lol

Fierce fighting and further escalation. Outcome remains unclear.

Response is about as expected; what are the Canadians gonna do? Go over there and spank 'em? Please.

"Without risking escalation"

Any excuse to steal

I'm sure they wouldn't dare find anything suspicious about the carlyle group or any other elites. They will however find a way to use it against the punters.

The wages of inflation. Meanwhile, those who can are finally retiring en masse, making our ongoing recession worse.

Very interesting articles on his substack.

1% yield. This will no doubt improve with time. We shall see whether the authorities can restrain themselves from growing slaves as the demographic crisis worsens.

It's obvious these firms, when not enthusiastic collaborators with our fascist vampire regime, are being leaned on to the point of "you will be crushed and driven out of business if you do not comply" judging by the persistence and effectiveness of ChokePoint. Legally, everyone has a right to raise money for any lawful purpose, even to pay for legal defense against crimes you deliberately and obviously committed. The only legal leg these shit bags have to lean on is wartime emergency provisions against "aiding the enemy" of whom there are none, as there is no declared war, just "enemies" lists made by the gangsters and warlords of the alphabet agencies. The fact these firms can legally say "put them on the OFAC shit list or fuck off" and don't tells you all you need to know here. The "money transmitter" license laws are the relevant sword of Damocles they use as a club against any who dare.

High on farts

Here's hoping things work out.

But if we recognizes this as the true sickness that ails us… well, the post liberal narrative rings lackluster. It is not Locke or Jefferson that has robbed our lives of significance. The post liberals could drive the Woke out of public life, annul the words “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” from the public memory, and re-Christianize the entire public sphere, but the essential problem would remain. As long as America is divided between managers and the managed; as long as her culture honors distinctions between experts and the average; and as long as her citizens’ daily lives are decided by rules and regulations made by bureaucrats living far away, then the malaise, atomization, and enervation that the post liberals mourn will continue apace.

Largely mirrors my thinking for many years. The problem remains centralization, and systematic suppression via coercion of all attempts at privately establishing an order of subsidiarity.
