The old guard of neocons are clashing with the younger generation that actually believed all their nonsense about decolonization and race communism being awesome. As such they are less than fans of Israeli shenanigans. I suspect the inevitable outcome will be them trying to Color Revolution the USA for not being race communist enough.

It is of course, a proposal of the Russians, those innovators in Tyranny. USG is enthusiastically on board.

I suppose we'll find out whether Peter Duesberg was right about HIV soon.

20 years too late. I suspect this is only because Google got smacked with antitrust. Kind of funny, as the practical outcome will be to strengthen Google's standings in the browser war, as now the Mozilla foundation's means of funding is explicitly illegal.

Very bad idea. I support their measures to remove the preferential treatment and immunity their miners and extractors have enjoyed, but outlawry is moronic. I suspect this is nationalization through the back-door:

Morena and its coalition partners have approved a key exception to the proposed rules meaning that open-pit mining and fracking can be authorised “in rare cases determined by the federal Executive… due to their strategic importance for national development.”

So yeah, force sale of everything and then reissue permits. I'm sure DF will sink in their fangs as part of the deal.

Peronism, which is to say Hitlernomics. In short, "Compassionate Conservatism". We'll get to experience year 24-28 of the Bush II reich. In Officer Harris' defense, that's the likely outcome of the Oranjereich II as well.

UAF invasion of Russia proper was apparently to kibosh a peace deal. Meanwhile, the messaging from the Kremlins remains totally disconnected from reality; they have once again been betrayed by their esteemed western partners.

There is literally nothing short of a nuclear first strike carried out by NATO that would get Moscow to grow anything resembling a spine. They’re cool with the invasion of Russia in Moscow, but it will take them some time to figure out how to spin this development in the media.

There are certainly some holes in both the "Ukraine did it" and the "Murrica did it" narrative, but ultimately it was funded by the USG either way.

I doubt it. Nevertheless, the unrest shows no signs of abating just yet.

Par for the course

Incentivization of unreliable renewables over more important concerns like EROI and robustness of transmission infrastructure. SOP, boondoggles uber allez

Which is to say the vast majority of it over the last 5 years. Like the USA, the Russkies tend to do the right thing, but only when all other options have been exhausted.

I can guarantee you it would not have happened without JRE #2079 popularizing this open secret.

Delta 9 growers predictably crying foul and clamoring for protection from big daddy guv. But the demand is too large at this point; a reality they'll figure out soon with kratom heroin substitutes too.

Of course the FDA will keep it away from practice for at least another decade, if not half-century.

Oldie but Goodie. Good thing to keep in mind what with inflation and political violence being back on the menu. It's the 70s, but with worse music.

UPDATE: The tejano station in town is now playing dance music 24/7. God bless Texas.

Predictably, people are getting upset that the monster is gonna lash out before expiring. They still have their nukes, and their policy remains the "Samson Option" -- holding a gun to the head of the world. We shall see if that bluff gets called and they pull the trigger.

Rothschild bagged Yukos, and then got expropriated. Imagine that's got to sting, but there's still the matter of all the current .RU elites having kids living in London. A million different sharks pulling in opposed directions until there's blood in the water.

As hinted at by Eric in TFA, the divide between the largely austro-german heritage Jews who hew closely to principle versus the Jews of the pale of settlement who largely treat their orthodoxy as a religion of crime due to their "thou shalt go nuts when it comes to the goy" attitude is of the utmost importance. There's no conspiracy that the latter sharks swam towards blood and became the Rothschilds and Korshaks of the world; they were simply the smartest of the hoods. This line of argumentation is how you "attack the Jews from the torah", rather than just going Stormfront on their ass. Such is no better than the way the regime in Israel treats their Judean and Samarian captives; they likely could have peacefully converted most of them had they the the wisdom to try rather than treat them as goy to be ridden roughshod over.

First time they've locked up a POTUS contender since Debs, and first time it's been done to the RNC. From here I presume the game will be DOJ filing in all 50 states to take him off the ballot. Hard to see how this doesn't clinch him either winning the election or people finally having the courage to call the regime totally illegitimate.

Simply murder anyone with standing, so the ruling can't ever be challenged. No Man, No problem.

Pretty much the same way that the mob took over union pension funds back in the day. Like the mob, I'm sure they aren't just using this to shape public opinion (union legbreakers at your local polling place), but to steal.

Once .gov first tasted the forbidden fruit of illegal surveillance, they never gave it up. Ever since the FIB's first illegal taps, this shit has just perpetually escalated until the point we are at now. Dragnet surveillance of practically every form of communication is the norm. The surveillance state dreams that they can use LLMs to read the firehose for them and finally make their East German wet dream real. The DoD can then use this to build CABAL from "Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun" and become a near-omniscient Murder, Inc.

LLM assisted Steganography and chaffing

Technology cannot only be used by the nefarious criminals riding herd on the monster. These tools can make them choke to death on their beloved firehose. Wiretaps will be worthless when not only can you make perfect AI reproductions of your, or anyone's voice, but you can have it spout nonsense 24 hours a day tying up multiple phone lines. Similarly, while meeting with people, you can play prerecorded nonsense, and actually communicate with pen and paper. The truly paranoid will only use synthesized voices, never allowing anyone but their family to know their speech.

One could do the same with digital appearances; a Vtuber morphing like in Michael Jackson's "Black or White" music video. The whole idea is that the only time you communicate anything in which .gov might have interest in, it could with reasonable doubt be said these are just 2 AIs spouting nonsense at each other in a loop like a "numbers station". Via use of TOTP, both parties could easily know which timespan to watch for the relevant message, with .gov powerless to know which is meaningful.

Robocalls to choke the monster

I'm sure there will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth at someone who automates a system which is simply AIs calling each other and engaging in nonstop "terrorist chatter". Things on similar wavelengths to "discussing gambling on kiddie porn competitions to raise funds for self-driving IEDs to send to abortion clinics". In minecraft, mind you. While such behavior is entirely legal, I'm sure it'll raise some eyebrows over at Fort Meade.

Countermeasures such as SARs and other sanction by public-private partnershits should be expected when the feds prove less than amused by such artistry. Even phone calls will end up as heavily moderated as social media, as anyone who knows how to hit them where it hurts here will be quickly banned for life from communicating electronically. Perhaps this will finally put Ol' POTS out of its misery in favor of herding everyone onto more controlled mediums. Let's hope so.

Both the US and JP lie like rugs about this. It's useful to do so to fuel the inevitable betrayal narrative which will fuel re-militarization.

The Israel lobby and the war state had a baby. Listen to him talk to Scott about it here.

Note that many of these names also happen to be people connected to Sid Korshak -- it's also a mafia alliance.
