Trump Leaves Presidency To Become Even More Powerful District Court Judge

 WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Donald Trump announced this week that he was leaving office in order to take an even more powerful position as a U.S. District Court judge.

After ascending to the presidency twice in the last decade, Trump set his sights on the next rung up the political ladder, with a spot in the federal judiciary proving him with far more authority to rule the nation.

"I love being president. I'm great at it. The best our country has ever had, many people say," Trump told the press. "But after seeing how much power those U.S. District Court judges have, I've decided to resign the presidency and join the judiciary. They seem to really be able to do anything they want."

Trump announced the move after a series of sweeping rulings from judges over the last several weeks, which greatly limited the breadth of the executive branch's powers. Trump said he's been eyeing the move for a while and thinks he'd be a great fit as he's already well-versed in the legal system.

"After going through all that stuff with the corrupt courts in New York, I think I have a pretty good handle on how things work," Trump said. "There can't be that much to it. Just bang the wooden hammer thing and create your own rules and laws all the time. Some are saying I'm going to be the best District Court judge that ever lived. I didn't say it, but some have."

At publishing time, Trump decided he might also try his hand at running for Congress for when he needs to have a break and take a much-needed rest from doing any work.

Israel is winning | Dan Schueftan

“The barbarians strongest weapon is to use our values against us”. A key message of Dr Dan Schueftan, director emeritus of the National Security Studies Center at the University of Haifa. 

Like as in taking hostages and using civilians as human shields. The barbarians count on our values in treating every civilian life as precious, to hold us back. Which has worked. 

This is a tough issue. But if countries face an enemy that takes hostages, and w Ethan make the return of hostages as the single, the highest, the primary aim, you’re in serious trouble. And will have more hostage taking. 

We used to know this. America had a strong “we do not negotiate with terrorists” policy. No longer. They readily negotiate with terrorists. As does Israel. 

There are a few Israelis, not many but a few, who call for the end of this policy. People like Yishai Fleisher. To return to a policy of not negotiating with terrorists. The response, once hostages are taken, is to consider them casualties of war. Try to liberate them. Try hard. But don’t make it the sole, the primary aim. But that’s a long way from where the government and the people are. Which includes handing back a thousand convicted Palestinian criminals, murderers amongst them, in rerun for one Hamas captured IDF soldier. That’s a kind of suicidal empathy.

As they’re always saying about everything: “wwe must have a conversation about this”. As it stands it’s not even remotely in the agenda.

Save for the Fleishers of the world. And people like professor Schueftan.

"Grok 3 is nuts" | Steven Mark Ryan

 

Click above for the video
Do have a look at the above vid. I found it fascinating.

There's a particularly interesting explanation from Elon, areound 35:10, about how they build the xAI facilities so rapidly.

Elsewhere I've written about how quicky Elon has created wealth. Now with xAI, creator of Grok, mergning with X. 

Steven Mark Ryan has the pofcast Solving the Money Problem. He's a major TSLA Bull, but has a lot of good analysis and predictions that have been prescient. 

Nuclear Tourism in China

Da Ya Bay Nuclear Power Station in China, on the Hong Kong coast
This is new, and as far as I know is the only place in the world where you can book a visit to a nuclear power plant. As opposed to other places that have "nuclear tourism" where it's visiting places like Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, or old nuclear test sites, like Maralinga in Australia. IOW, places where things went wrong. 

As far as I can tell China is the only place where you can visit an actual operating nuclear power station. I do hope they're just the first. Given that one of the main reasons people are against nuclear power is fear; fear of the unknown. They ought be given the chance to know more. 

In China. At one of nine plants now open for a visit. And do I recommend it? You bet I do. If you're visiting China or live there, try to make time for a visit. You won't regret. 

I visited the Da Ya Bay Nuclear Power station just north west of us, when I went to China on a rally with the Classic Car Club of Hong Kong, back around 2005. Our Club patron was Sir Michael Kadoorie, a classic car buff, and part owner of the Da Ya Bay plant, via his China Light and Power company here in Hong Kong. 

I rate that visit one of the most fun visits I've ever made. And I been everywhere, man.

I asked Grok about it:

Now you can visit certain nuclear power stations in China, as the country has recently opened some of its facilities to the public as part of a "nuclear tourism" initiative. In August 2024, China General Nuclear Power Corporation (CGN), the nation's largest nuclear power operator, launched an online booking system allowing tourists to plan visits to nine of its nuclear power stations. This move aims to increase public understanding and trust in nuclear energy while promoting its role in achieving China's carbon neutrality goals by 2060.

For example, locations like the Ningde Nuclear Power Plant in Fujian province and the Fangchenggang Nuclear Power Station in Guangxi have been highlighted as tourist-friendly sites. Visitors can explore the facilities, learn about clean energy, and even enjoy nearby attractions such as tea gardens or scenic islands. CGN has also provided tourist information, including hand-drawn maps, to enhance the experience.

However, access may come with restrictions. While the initiative is open to the public, specific requirements—such as booking in advance through the online system—are necessary. Additionally, some reports from other nuclear-related sites in China (like the Gaoqiao nuclear bunker museum) suggest that non-Chinese nationals might face extra scrutiny, such as higher admission fees or, in rare cases, restricted entry, though this isn’t explicitly confirmed for CGN’s power stations.

To visit, you’d need to check the official CGN booking platform for availability, locations, and any visitor guidelines, such as safety protocols or identification requirements. This reflects China’s broader push to showcase its nuclear technology, which includes 56 operational reactors and 30 more under construction as of early 2025.

xAI acquires X in stock transaction valuing the companies at over $100 Bn.

This is huge news and positions Musk, one of his companies, maybe xAI, maybe Tesla, to be the leader in AGI. See Stephen Ryan's take on it here

Just a few weeks ago I posted that Musk had created yet another Billion Dollar Company, xAI, this one in record time, that was worth, then -- just a few weeks ago -- $50 billion. It's now valued at $80 Billion. So, a company he started two years ago, is now worth $80 Billion. Amazing. The other companies he's started or got involved in at very early stages and driven the development of include: PayPal, $80 Bn. Tesla, $850 Bn, SpaceX $350 Bn, The Boring Company, $6 Bn and Neuralink $8 Bn. 

Total = $1.4 TRILLION and counting. But who's counting? Certainly not Elon. He's too busy building. While his haters are too busy hating. 

Musk is the most prolific creator of Billion dollar companies the United States, the world, has ever seen. 

"Elon Musk and DOGE team give behind the scenes look at their mission" | Bret Baeir

Click above for the video 

This is a fantastic interview. Finding out what's really gong on at DOGE -- the Department of Government Efficiency -- from the people in it, rather than hearing the hyperventilating Musk-haters telling us their hysterical reactions to it. Which are all over the likes of CNN and MSNBC, not to mention Tik Tok. I've seen them, and they're both ignorant and unhinged. Don’t even know why they hate him.

Bret Baier talks to some senior members of the DOGE team, led by Elon Musk, trying to make the US government more efficient in order to save money. In order to reduce the deficit. In order to reduce the debt burden of the US. 

This is an impressive team and they're just a part of the whole. 

You can either believe what they're saying -- which I do -- or believe the unhinged loonies on the streets, torching Teslas, shooting up showrooms, waving their "Elon is a Nazi" signs, and then when confronted with what is it that Elon has done that they think is so wrong, are unable to answer. I choose to believe Elon and this team, not the loonies. 

What these folks are doing is revolutionary. They're trying to make the government more efficient. There's some hair raising stories about just how inefficient the government is. With some legacy systems more than seventy years old. That's right, 70 years old. Systems set up in the 1950s, when I was born, but which have not been updated since because of the weird ways in which the government works (or doesn't). 

More people outside the Fox bubble should see this. But they won't. Because the other bubbles, the likes of CNN, MSNBC, etc... simply do not want to hear the message. It's much better for them to carry on with the Narrative: Elon and Trump bad. Elon and his oligarch cronies just want to gut Social Security and run home with more money. 

Think about it. Elon would have been much better off doing nothing. He's lost billions in stock value because of his commitment to try to help stem the bleeding of the government deficit, to reduce the debt burden. He could've just been doing more at Tesla, Neuralink, SpaceX, X, Boring Company. Instead, the man tries to help the country and what he gets from the Left is hate. 

"No good deed goes unpunished". 

ADDED

CNN doesn't report what the Doge team say it is doing. Instead they moan that the group above is a bunch of Old Middle Aged. White. Men. Yes, that's the most important thing to CNN. Not that Doge is on track to reduce waste in government spending by $1 TRILLION per year. But the genitalia and age of the team. THAT's the most important thing in all this. Right. 

By the way, earlier, CNN were cranky, really mad, that Doge was "a bunch of teenagers"... Really can't win. (Except they are).

I just donated to support nuclear facts over fear – join me? Nuclear for Australia

I just donated to support Nuclear for Australia's "Facts. Not Fear." campaign, and I hope you'll consider doing the same.

That's after I got an email from Aussie of the Year, famous businessman and environmentalist, Dick Smith:

Hi Peter, it's Dick Smith here.

I've spent my life standing up for common sense — and right now, nothing makes more sense than Australia embracing nuclear energy.

But common sense is under attack.

A powerful $2 million scare campaign is flooding social media with misinformation. They're saying nuclear is dangerous, unaffordable, even calling it a "carbon bomb." 

It's absolute rubbish — and it's designed to scare Australians like us into silence.

There's a wave of misinformation and fear-mongering spreading about nuclear energy – but the truth matters. Nuclear is safe, clean, and essential for affordable, reliable power in Australia. This campaign is fighting back with real facts, expert voices, and community action.

Every donation helps get the truth out – and right now, your gift will be doubled thanks to a generous matching donor, like Dick.

You can donate here

Time to defund Green NGOs | Zion Lights

Click above for the Substack article
Zion Lights criticises Greenpeace support of gas.

Me? I'm an NTN guy. "Natural Gas to Nuclear". Gas is much cleaner than coal, but can fill in until clean and safe nuclear can be built. It really is a good bridge. Though the Greenies hate it, because it's not "perfection", perfection being 100% wind and solar. As always, "perfection is the enemy of the good."

She used to be on the side of radical climate activism, like being a founder member and spokeswoman of Extinction Rebellion. Until she realised that being always against stuff was no good. You also have to be for stuff. In her case she's turned into a vocal advocate of Nuclear. In which endeavour, I support her. 
And so should we all. 

Nuclear is the cleanest, safest, most reliable zero carbon energy on the planet. Bar none. But the Greenies are against it for a bunch of nonsense reasons, the most recent being that "it takes too long". Yeah, well, only because of the obfuscation and interference of Green groups. Where we don't have that, like in South Korea, they can build a 1Gw station in 5 years.

Tesla Terrorism is terrorism porn

Click above for the video
Says Victor Davis Hanson.

TBF, I've been shocked at first of all the level of violence, political violence, aka terrorism*, and second the enabling, the cheering on, of this from senior Democrats and high-flying members of the Left. Do they not see the dangers? That way lies anarchy, confusion, chaos. 

Off the top of my head, I can think of the following who have supported, cheered on, the vandalising of Tesla cars, of shooting up their showrooms, torching their charging stations, of confronting Tesla owners on the streets, threatening them, doxxing all Tesla owners in the country:

Chuck Schumer, Jasmine Crockett, Ilhan Omar, AOC, Bernie Sanders,  Bill Burr, Jimmy Kimmel, Tim Waltz, Michael Steele, Abby Phillip, Cory Booker, Rachel Maddow

That's a mix of politicians and news anchors. There are dozens of others that slip my mind for now, but that I've seen on the legacy media in recent weeks. And there are hundreds more on X. And thousands more morons in the audiences of the people above, like of Kimmel and Waltz, who laugh and clap along, like seals, idiotic things like Waltz praising the damage to a major, innovative American company. It's revolting. I''m revolted by their actions. 

An important aspect that all commenters like VDH above are missing, is the one identified by Andy Ngo, in his talk recently with Winston Marshall. i.e. the Trans Radical angle. Trans folk are disproportionately represented amongst the arrestees. Weird, weird

We have to keep remembering that these attacks are because they don't like that Elon Musk is leading a group in the Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, which is looking at government waste, fraud and abuse. That's all he's doing. Something he was asked to do by Trump, which is something that Trump was elected on. And it's something that senior Democrats used to support as well. They've said in the past "we must tackle waster, fraud and abuse".  In those very words. People like Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumer and Bernie Sanders. All said it. And are all now against it. They're only against it because it's Trump and his team doing it. 

Ok, so hypocrisy's one thing. We all do it; especially pollies. But to go to the next stage? To support terrorism? To attack American companies? Which employ hundreds of thousands of working Americans" Enough's enough. Supporting and encouraging terrorism is not on. At least should not be on. But there seems to be not a single Democrat (perhaps Ro Khanna aside), who will do the right thing and denounce terrorism. 

====================

*All these recent attacks fit exactly the definition of "Terrorism": 

... the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims. [Oxford Languages]

ATTENTION: John Papola. Healthcare systems in the world: which is "best"?

Click above for the video
Dear John,

This is prompted by your recent talk with Jimmy Dore. Talking healthcare, you plumped for the Swiss system.  I think you may also have given Australia an honourable mention. 

I wrote in the Comments that you ought to consider Hong Kong — where I now live. 

Quick background to me: I have lived in: Tokyo (lived 3 years), Rome and Northern Italy (6 years), New York City (3), Bonn, Germany (1), Berne, Switzerland (1), Cape Town, South Africa (1), London (5), Australia (20), Hong Kong (36 and counting). Which ought to add up to around 76.

I've not used the healthcare systems of all equally, of course. In younger years I hardly thought about "healthcare". Whereas lately, in my eighth decade, I hardly stop thinking about it. I'm most familiar with the ones in the UK, Australia, Switzerland, and most of all here in Hong Kong. 

The one here is a mix of private and public, that I think is just outstanding. Which I say from much personal use of it, plus the fact that my first wife was a doctor here, and my best man, an Aussie, was a decade or more an A&E doctor here at our teaching hospital, a world-renowned anaesthetist, who told me that the equipment and teaching (based on UK) was world best. As much as I know, I agree. I've had three heart ops, all done here, with the most wonderful treatment by staff, and the very best of equipment, as far as i could tell. At a price, I'm told by my American mates, was about a tenth of what they thought I would have paid in the US. 

I see you're a Blue Check on X, so you get Grok 3. I suggest, if you're interested, to Grok "Tell me about the Hong Kong [or Switzerland] healthcare system". And if you want a comparison with Switzerland, Grok that as well. I've done so, and consider Grok's conclusions to be a fair summary. 

Here's the cut & paste of Grok's "Verdict", the concluding para of its answer to my Question: "Are you able to give an opinion of which healthcare system is 'better', the Swiss or the Hong Kong?":
Verdict
    • Switzerland's system shines if you value quality, choice, and speed, and can afford it. It's a premium model—high-cost, high-reward—ideal for a wealthy, decentralized nation where individual responsibility is emphasized.
    • Hong Kong's system wins if affordability and basic universal access matter most. It's a leaner, government-driven model that punches above its weight for a dense, urban population, though it sacrifices speed and flexibility.
Which is "better"? If you're a middle-class resident prioritizing top-notch care and don't mind paying, Switzerland's system feels superior. If you're focused on cost-effective coverage with solid outcomes, Hong Kong's public system delivers. Data-wise, Switzerland edges out slightly in quality and consistency (e.g., OECD rankings often place it higher), but Hong Kong's efficiency and longevity stats are hard to ignore. What do you think matters most—cost, access, or outcomes? I can refine this further based on your take!

By the way: Grok seems to think that Life Expectancy and Infant Mortality measures are something of a proxy for determining how good a healthcare system is.

The figures are: 

Life Expectancy: Switzerland: Women 85, men 82. Hong Kong: Women 88. men 85.
Infant Mortality, per 100k births: Switzerland: 3. Hong Kong 1.5

Both are world-leaders, but Hong Kong edges Switzerland.

Best wishes from Discovery Bay, Hong Kong! And keep up the good work. Much appreciated.

Pf etc...

"Profiles in Cowardice" : George Clooney

Click above for the video
Georgie boy! 

George Clooney. What a cool guy. Aging so well. I've loved him in so many films, Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, The Three Kings, Ocean's Twelve. Mr Suave and Mr composed. A wonderful, natural actor. And cool. Did I say he's cool? 

But a shocking politician. A shocking would-be journalist. Give it a break Georgie! 

The only thing he's been good at there is hypocrisy and duplicity. I remember everything of that night when Joe Biden had to be led off the stage by Barack Obama that Ben and Megyn talk about above. And the rest is history. 

This 60-Minutes gig is Georgie trying to rewrite history. He'd be better off just staying cool. 

Megyn Kelly and Ben Shapiro tell it like it is. Like it or not. Love George or not. 

====================

ADDED: Georgie mentions "Profiles in Cowardice", and he as a man "brought up to always tell the truth". Unlike the rest of his cult in the Dem party who were clearly cowards. 

What Georgie is subtly (or not) referring to here is the famous book by president Kennedy, "Profiles in Courage", which I read when I was a kid, in the 1960s, just after we'd arrived in New York. It's a real page-turner. No, I mean it! It's good. At least as I recall it. A tale of JFK's dramatic times in the Pacific war, fighting the Japanese in small gunboats. A war in which my father also fought the Japanese, in his case on the Kokoda Trail in New Guinea (a whole 'nother story).

So, I guess what Georgie is kind of trying to get in people's minds here is that he's the John F. Kennedy figure in all this. He's the courageous one; he's the hero in the whole dog's-breakfast mess of the Biden debate meltdown and shoehorning Kackling Kamala in as the replacement. Georgie was a prime player in that! But... according to his narrative, according to Georgie's tale, it's the rest of the Democratic party who are the Cowards. 

I'm sorry Georgie. You were balls-deep in the cowardice; you were balls deep in that steaming cow-pat of hypocrisy. You were balls-deep in it all. 

Georgie porkie, pudding and lies...

The Rogue Robed Resistance

Laura Ingraham is a lawyer herself, of some note. Eg, she clerked for Clarence Thomas on the Supreme Court. 

Hers is a conservative take. For a liberal take, head over to CNN, MSNBC, ABC… or indeed pretty much any of legacy media. 90% anti-Trump stories. So there's plenty. Just not so much on the Other Side. 

Above a good analysis of Lawfare 2.0. The first version being that during the campaign, when the courts were weaponised to try to take Trump off the ballot. When that didn’t work, they went all-in with novel charges against Trump, charges stretched beyond credulity, but aimed to put Trump behind bars for, like, 300 years. 

And now we have a blizzard of injunctions against all of Trump’s agenda. To try to drag it out to the mid terms so that they can then claim “chaos” and “look how little he did”. Biden did have a few injunctions against him. But most he simply ignored — like the one to stop the forgiving of student debt, a regressive policy. Biden simply ignored the injunctions and even the subsequent SCOTUS decision against it. IOW, double standards, much? 

It will all end up in the Supreme Court. Until that happens all the kerfuffle right now is argument, not “constitutional crisis”.

Note, by the way, that Trump EOs always say —all the ones I’ve read, anyway — “to the extent permitted by law”, and the administration is following every injunction, no matter how inane. So the whole thing of “unlawful” Trump is nonsense. Which we’ve heard from every senior Dem, every single one. Chuck Schumer, AOC, Bernie Sanders, Ayanna Pressley, Jasmine CrockettIlhan Omar....

Many of these last-mentioned above are going much further than “Robed Resistance”. They're calling for harm on Elon Musk and now Ted Cruz. They're preaching violence. The atmosphere is febrile. I’ve not seen it like this, ever. No, not even during the anti-Vietnam war days. Not even then by a long way.

 This is hyper split, hyper divided, hyper manic, hysterical, hypocritical, threatening, violent. 

Sigh…

“Trans Murderous CULT!” The Rise of TrAntifa: A DANGEROUS Fusion of Extremism And Trans Ideology | Winston Marshall & Andy Ngo

Click above for the video
Winston Marshall talking to Andy Ngo. I've known both for some time. Andy longer than Winston. I've know Andy since I started following the stories he was posting from the front lines of the riots going on over in the western states, like in Portland, Oregon. Andy did a lot of brave reporting, and nearly got killed for it. He wrote a book, which I've read, called "Unmasked: Inside Antifa’s Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy".

How Winston came into the picture is that he recommended the book to his followers. He was then promptly driven out of the rather famous band that he was founding member of -- Mumford & Sons. He's since made this online career for himself.

A lot of things I didn't know, come out of the above video, for me.

Like:

Trans are only around just under 1% of the population, but they were around 15% of the arrestees during the 2020 BLM riots around the US.

They are a major part of those identified in recent bombings, burnings and shootings of Tesla building and cares.

I didn't know about this Zizian gang. Like a kind of Manson Family, for Trans.

I didn't know that the violent Trans, of which there seems to be lots, are disproportionately smart, top-end academically. Some folks like that make stuff, like Elon Musk. Some folks like that destroy stuff, like the Zizi dude.

This is all like a resurgence of the crazies during the middle of the last century. The Baader-Meinhof gang in Germany, the Red Brigades in Italy, the xxx in Japan, the Weather Underground in the US. All returning, with a vengeance, and with souped up tools via the internet.

From the intro:
Anti-Elon Musk arson and vandalism targeting Tesla’s have erupted up and down America and across the world. Far Left anarchism is back.
And it turns out that Trans are over represented amongst alleged perpetrators. Or as journalist Andy Ngo calls them: Trantifa.
Andy Ngo, a journalist and author, discussed the rise of far-left extremism, particularly the over-representation of transgender individuals in recent attacks on Tesla dealerships across the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Ngo highlights that these attacks, which include arson and bombings.
With Winston they examine to what extent they are coordinated, by Dogequest for example.
Andy also detailed the Zizians, a transgender, transhumanist, rationalist cult linked to multiple violent deaths, including the murder of a Border Patrol agent and a double homicide.
Ngo criticises the mainstream media for downplaying the ideological aspects of these extremist groups and their transgender identities.
And Winston and Andy discuss how their lives have become entangled.

Batya calls out AOC nonsense: it’s the Dems who are the party of the wealthy oligarchs.

Click above for the video 
While AOC and Bernie Sanders wander around the country bloviating about “The oligarchy” on their “Oligarchy Tour” (!), they reveal their hypocrisy, for it’s their party, it’s their Democrats, who are the “Party of the oligarchs”. The party of the wealthy. The party of the elites. 

Consider the points by Batya Ungar-Sargon, above. I’ve followed Batya for some years and have both her books — Bad News, about the history of The New York Times, and Second Class, about elites betraying the working class. 

Which is exactly what young, cute, personable, hypocrite AOC does: betray her working class, the class she did indeed rise from, as a bartender in New Jersey. 

Remember: her signature “win” a few years back was to block the opening of an Amazon fulfilment centre, because she didn’t like Jeff Bezos. Or something. Thus denying 10,000 jobs to the working class of her district. Way to go, ditzhead! Not.

Summary from Batya:

  1. Twice as many billionaires supported Harris-Waltz as supported Trump-Vance, in 2024.
  2. 90% of the richest counties in the United States are Democrat 
  3. 65% of Americans with annual salaries over $500,000 vote Democrat 
  4. Trump “crushed” amongst people earning less than $100,000 per year. 

I’ve fact checked them all. They’re all true. Though the first one is a touch exaggerated since the figure from Forbes is 1.6 to 1, vs 2 to 1. Which we can but down to rounding up, and also making a more easily recallable stat, while not misrepresenting the key point — that many more billionaires supported Kamala than Trump, which is the opposite of the BS Bernie and AOC narrative they’re spreading around the country right now as we speak, as I write. 

It's only a *paper* moon...

The Democrats should call out the domestic terrorism of their supporters

Click above for the video
The most important part of Greg Foreman's outrage starts at around 12:00. He is outraged, rightly, that the left, the mainstream media, the legacy media, goes all out when there's some infraction by the conservative side of politics, but goes super soft, goes silent, when there's far more violence on the Left. 

They went crazy over January 6th. That was one event on one day, lasting two hours, in which a minority of protesters were violent, which was criticised by mainstream Republicans. But meantime, nothing is said (and of course this is "whataboutism". But that's just another word for hypocrisy) about the much larger violence of the BLM riots in 2020, in which billions in property was destroyed and dozens of lives taken. Or the violence of the pro-Hamas movement in 2024. Or the violence on the streets today. Outright violence with political aims. IOW, terrorism. 

The whole of the video is worth watching, as are all of Greg Foreman's videos. But the main bit, where he gets outraged starts around 12:00. He is righteously outraged. He is correctly outraged. We should all be as outraged as he. For this is now really a battle for the soul of America. Is it to maintain its freedoms, democracy and rule of law, or is it to descend into the darkness of mob rule, of leftist terror, of the guillotines of gutless gen-G?

Hyperbole? Hysteria? I fear not. Even if it seems so from the front yards of comfortable suburbs. The Bolsheviks, a tiny group, arose and conquered a whole land from the fine manicured mansions of the elites. 

America needs to get a grip on this, or there's bad outcomes ahead.

The Democrats’ 10-point Agenda | Victor Davis Hanson

Click above for the video 
Brilliant summary from this famous historian. 

Is there anything to question or doubt in his 10 points when we look at— as I do, every single day — the media on the Left, MSNBC, CNN, CBC, ABC, The New York Times, WaPo? There is not. 

The anchors like Abby Phillip, Dana BashRachel Maddow, Whoopi Goldberg and her cronies on The View, all follow the professor Hanson-identified Democrats’ playbook.

To a T. Though he may have missed specific mention of Lawfare V2.0. 

Thank you Victor! 

ADDED: Not that it helps much, TBF. I still feel depressed about what’s going on in America. It’s dangerous, deranged, quasi-suicidal.

Consider this: the likes of late-night slimeball Jimmy Kimmel, who once identified as a comedian, urges his audience to vandalise and torch Teslas, to laughter and cheering from the crowd. WTF??
