Interesting times… I have stayed away from commenting on immediate events, so I will not comment on these while commenting on them.
Trump’s Assassination Attempt
There are so many aspects to this. “Now he is guaranteed to win in November.” This is one of the funnier lines I have heard in the days since the attempt. That’s over three months away. Who knows the news cycle by then, who knows what will be important to voters. Who knows what shenanigans will be pulled.
“There is no way they can rig the vote now; the gap is too wide.” Another funny one. What happened four years ago was blatant, and we know that blatant only opens the door to something even more blatant. Power doesn’t give up so easily (and settle down, I don’t find Trump to be an antidote to power. He just is a representative of one of the many factions of power fighting for control).
In other words, those who want Trump out aren’t going to take the next three months off.
Oh, yeah. “Trump faked the whole thing.” Look, anything is possible, and I have given up believing the first story about any significant event. But if he faked it, wouldn’t November 3 or so have been a better time to do so?
Meet the Hillbilly
All I know about J.D. Vance is he is considered an outsider, and some rather unpleasant characters are behind him financially. One of these things is not like the other, and in such a case I know which one of these things wins.
Who Is in Charge Here?
This question is being asked often, since Biden has disappeared for several days. But why is it being asked now? And I don’t just mean since his election four years ago. No president has been “in charge” since at least November 22, 1963.
There are many culprits we can point to as the answer to this question, and, likely, the ones we can point to aren’t even the ones in charge. Further, there isn’t such a thing as someone “in charge” – as if there is some hierarchy of deviants. Instead, we have multiple factions each vying for some area of control or vying for a share of the spoils.
Who is in charge of what we refer to as the West, nominally led by the United States? The CIA? The merchants of death? Zionists? The Chinese? Whoever controls the Epstein client list? Klaus Schwab? The World Health Organization? The Bank for International Settlements? The list of suspects is endless.
All of these are, and none of these are. But one thing is for sure: the president hasn’t been in charge, not for decades. If it was the president, would we have had Obama or Biden? Would Kamala be the next heir apparent? Are any of these comparable to the leaders in other major countries today, or presidents from our past? These are jokes foisted on us just to demonstrate that presidents are not in charge – and the plebes can go on fighting about who wins…as if it matters.
Conclusion
On November 6, we are going to wake up to a certainty: whoever wins the election (laughably, we will refer to it in this term), war wins, central banking wins, increased control wins. This will continue to be true until the weight of the system comes crashing down on itself.
Somewhere in the back of our mind, we will remember a line from a song from over fifty years ago: “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.”
