"Mission Accomplished" as far as the tidewater creeps are concerned. I guess we get to see a bunch of Koreans turn each other into hamburger with tube artillery soon too.

If anything, it will be but temporary relief. Remember, the current circuit courts are but the next generation to be SCOTUS after all.

When gangsters run your country, of course they'll legalize their activities and promulgate ideology to justify it to the victims. The "If I'm victimized, it's my fault for being a schmuck" attitude is quite common now, and far inferior to the very simple "you loot, I shoot".

Germline cells in the gametes are what sends (or fails to send) the signal for to cells to repair without growing uncontrollably; similarly to allow the lifeform to die when it has lost reproductive viability.

"Either way, there will be no running water or electricity"

Standards of living on borrowed time

Looks like the oligarchy and military have increasingly aligned against the Zelensky regime. I suspect if the regime's plan to mobilize another half million actually go through, the ensuing draft riots will almost surely be the last nail in it's coffin.

Upon realizing that the Russian regime was a blood-soaked kleptocracy wearing white-guardism as a skinsuit, he did what most people do and doubled down on his hopes. When the reality of systematic falsification of all such metrics became unavoidable, he finally capitulated. In the "hitted too hard way", unfortunately; he sees western liberal internationalism as the way out. He does not yet realize we have the same exact problem. Our system is also a murdering kleptocracy wearing an ideology as a skin-suit to cover for their systematic theft. It's nice that he sees things like the "network state" (which are just re-heated Doug Casey from the 80s) as the way out; ultimately anarcho-capitalism is the only system actually compatible with our ultra-networked future.

Gee, maybe you should have worked on the actual public health crisis in the country like Eli Lilly.

No state allowed to have more autonomy than any other, which is to say Delhi's autonomy (e.g. none at all). "Surely centralizing won't cause a civil war this time, ignore all lessons of history"

From the "It's a big club and you ain't in it" file

They of course forget entirely that .gov policy comprehensively punishes saving and capital formation, while encouraging profligacy. Then they of course demand gibs as the solution. Look, this is entirely driven by Women, who spend 80% of the money in the economy despite earning ~40% of it. The globalization of the sexual marketplace has driven their expectations to the moon, and men won't tell their wives the magic word 'no', as this is commonly grounds for divorce to not keep up with her delusional wants. The savings rate will not recover so long as inflation & buying female votes is the 2 step .gov solution to perpetual reelection.

The pentagram "not asking no questions" RE the ownership of defense contractors is so that the same mobbed up names don't show up in every single transaction. This is actually striking the root of the real problems in US politics. I suppose the Intel aristocracy has finally decided it's time for hot war against the organized crime faction that achieved apotheosis in the 80s. I suppose this is to be expected, as the parties have gone from being heavily infiltrated by both sides to increasingly polarized. I suppose some of it is well meaning, as the rapacious looting of our criminal oligarchy certainly fails to deliver concrete results beyond financial irregularity.

Screaming recession indicator

As anyone who read WJ Sidis' 100 year old book knew already. The difference is now the cosmologists have data screaming at them to look at the wide open holes in their theories they have neglected up to date.

VVP pinkie swears he won't tax those creeps if they de-offshore their operations. Any of the oligarchs with brains will scurry back to Israel and cut their losses, but it appears for now their greed is getting the best of them, as he's offering the carrot of seized western assets. The "stick" of a subsequent oligarch dinner where they are all taken out and shot if they don't pay taxes comes later (if at all, as RU patriots suspect).

As we've mentioned here before multiple times, the feds are "on borrowed time". If they can't get spending under control (spoiler alert) the end comes much sooner than 2050.

How very lincolnesque of this yank. If he actually pulls a nazbol attack off against the USSA's bioleninist regime, he'll be our man of steel(ing things). Stalinist purges but with "your fired!" BLAM! on national TV. Ha! as if. More likely, the ship of state will simply continue to list for the next 20 years until we default.

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.
