“When I look at him now I think we're really in trouble.“
Our whole world is in a tailspin and really in trouble. It’s definitely not only America that has severe internal problems. Both India and China also do plus severe economic and environmental problems.
Icke has often been reviled and mocked about his theory that the world is controlled by shape-shifting space aliens and that our emotions, anger, and drama all provide "loosh" (i.e. food for demons). On the other hand, I just finished his newest book and here is a thought-provoking quote from it:
I have been warning about the role of China since the late 1990’s and the plan to bring East and West into conflict with NATO facing off against an alliance dominated by China and Russia. World War III between these nuclear powers, long highlighted in my books, does not have to be, but it will be if we just leave them to it. The war in Ukraine and the response of NATO and Western governments has led to this very coming together of Russia and China both economically and militarily. Financial ‘sanctions’ against Russia harmed Western economies (on purpose) and pushed Russia into closer alliance with China (on purpose). China heads the BRICS group of countries consisting of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa - hence BRICS. These countries represent 26.7 percent of the land surface of Planet Earth and 41.5 percent of the global population. Another consequence of American and Chinese actions is the erosion of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency for international trade. The United States would be in desperate financial trouble if the dollar was displaced from that role. It’s coming and, more than that, it’s happening. Russia agreed in March 2023 to supply much of China’s oil and natural gas, and to use the Chinese yuan currency for trade with increasingly China-dominated Asia, Africa, and South America. Brazil soon followed the trend of using the yuan and not the dollar. China apparently completed its first yuan trade of liquified natural gas with France in the same month and Cult-owned French president Emmanuel Macron said after meeting Chinese leader Xi Jinping that Europe should reduce dependence on the dollar and limit its reliance on the United States.
At the same time, the West, especially the United States and Britain, has been pouring money and military hardware into Ukraine. West and East are at war via Ukraine in line with the plan all along. This was naturally denied. The West was just ‘protecting democracy’ in fascist Ukraine and was not at war with Russia. It was an obvious lie, and this was confirmed by leaked military documents. Jack Teixeira, a 21-year-old IT specialist with the Massachusetts Air National Guard, was arrested for the leak and attacked by the mainstream media for exposing the truth when their job is to suppress it for the Cult that owns them. The New York Times and Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post even tracked down the leaker for the Deep State.
I just ordered his book CHILDREN OF THE MATRIX. It is noteworthy to consider the fact that theoretical physicists now accept that 95% of the universe is made of Dark Matter and Dark Energy.
My advice when it comes to SOTU addresses is - don't watch them! They're nothing but political bullshit spewed out in an attempt to make the speaker look good. They're unnecessary and meaningless. Journalists write articles about them in order to get paid, that's all.
What most Americans probably don't know is that while there is a requirement for the president to make a report to Congress, prior to the Twentieth Century (and the advent of radio), presidents usually made their reports in writing. George Washington addressed Congress but after him few did until Woodrow Wilson came along. FDR made it a regular thing - FDR LOVED to talk on the radio! TV made it worse. It's since become a political circus instead of the president advising Congress on the state of the nation as it is intended.
You're spot on about not watching the SOTU, especially when it's a Demoncat talking. They're so predictable. Always accuse Republicans of doing what the Dems are actually doing. Blame Republicans for anything bad happening due to the Dems policies. And, take credit for anything good happening due to Republican policies/actions. Textbook playbook.
Not sure on what you're basing your hunch. But, if that happens, it will become highly apparent that the election process is, as a lot of us suspect, as corrupt as those in office. Which also begs the question, if Biden is re-installed, what next?
America has already ceased to exist as a country internally which is why it’s becoming ever more ungovernable externally. Both Trump and Biden are too hated by too many to govern plus our cities are experiencing ever worsening social breakdown due to out of control crime and our ever worsening “migrant crisis.” What’s next? Ever worsening social breakdown aka civilizational collapse. Does the world know America is disintegrating? Sure they do. They watch it happening every day online just as easily as we do. How could they not be aware of it?
I base that on the fact that Biden is the incumbent and the incumbent always has the advantage.
Add to that the crucial fact that he has the entire weight of the media complex behind him.
Many Americans are unhappy with Biden, as shown by polls, but many others support him and will do so regardless of how I and other critics feel.
These people believe what the media tells them and that helps Biden because the media is entirely on his side and will do all it can to motivate the president's supporters to vote.
Biden can also depend on local Democratic election officials to manipulate vote totals in his favor, a task made easier by loosened voting laws.
Then there are the Democratic prosecutors waging lawfare against Trump. It's outrageous to see goons like James, Smith and Bragg pursuing Trump but they could yet get a conviction that would damage Trump's chances.
Musk could lose control of X. That's the goal of the Biden administration's lawfare against Musk.
I don't like feeling hopeless but I think we are faced with an unprecedented situation where one party, the Democrats, stands a good chance of consolidating a de facto dictatorship.
Think about what you just said here and you’ll understand why I say only AI can save our sinking ship. Many say AI is “scary” as if being ruled by criminally insane fanatics isn’t.
“The 2024 presidential race increasingly looks like it will be decided by lawyers, not voters, as Democrats unveil plans for America's first lawfare election.”
Real Clear Politics. Racket News. Matt Taiibi. Jan 26, 2024
Can’t be done. We cannot coexist. We cannot separate. Too many of them for us to prevail. Too many of us for them to prevail. We are then heading for implosion aka civilizational collapse. I believe only AI can save us. AI sails past most here like water off a duck’s back but I follow it every day and know how astonishing it is and know it’s the only thing powerful enough to save our sinking ship.
He definitely has opinions of his own. His “fiery” speech was fueled by his intensely burning hate for those who oppose him. I think it was VDH in a different article who said Joe only seems to come alive when he talks about Trump and MAGA which he hates and considers “a clear and present danger” to America.
I was highly entertained by the president impersonating an ancient spider monkey overdosing on Red Bull and mashing his slurred words together producing delightfully memorable lines like "TRANSHAMATIONAMOMENT IN HIZZORY!" or "NO PET PALESTINIAN LIVE IN DIGNITY!"...nod to Vodkapundit on those quotes.
Really, the GOP should have just stayed home and told him to deliver his report in writing. What a shit show.
This whole thing has to be some sort of intelligence community psyop to turn ALL of our minds to mush? Right? Ironically, this seems to be the only way to make any of this entire shitshow have any semblance of sanity.
I am shockingly and depressingly embarrassed for our Nation.
The world needs a healthy US, and can't afford this level of cultural, political, and psychological BULLSHIT.
At one time, people believed that a healthy Roman Empire was vital. At one time, people believed the Pope was a Christian. At one time, Brittania ruled the seas. Things change. Amerika, despite its bluster and its attempt to rule the world, is a worn-out wreck. The ship is sinking and the captain is clearly unaware.
I said nothing about 'ruling'. In fact, it's that 'superpower' thing that is a detriment, perhaps fatally. I certainly hope not. What I'm pointing to is the US must adapt, with deft agility, or risk collapse. And that is of vital importance, whether or not you choose to use spelling pejorative or otherwise. Again, the importance of a healthily functioning US is vital. Along with a healthy and functioning Russia, China (Asia), ME, and SA.
There’s a lot of disgraceful moments in the speech. But the attack and threat on the Supreme Court’s conservative justices with cabinet secretaries sitting immediately next to them stood and cheered. I thought the speech at Independence Hall may have been the single lowest point of any American Presidency but these demons keep digging.
"State of the Union" has turned into a circus! President Washington reminded the Senate and the House of Representatives of their duty to the country and stressed the necessity of cooperation to uphold a functioning republic (Only 1,089 words.)
Venezuela emptied their prisons, sent them here and is now refusing to take them back. Well why would they? They’re much better off without them. From now on this nightmare is our problem to deal with. What do the democrats think of this? They think it’s racist to deport them.
“Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is warning agents to be on the lookout for members of a notorious Venezuelan prison gang coming across the southern border -- just as the socialist country is refusing to take its citizens back.”
“Bloodthirsty Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua sets up shop in US as border authorities sound alarm.”
Nate Silver posted polling on State of the Union approval by viewers, a group always strongly biased in favor of the President. Biden's 2024 speech was ranked favorably by 65% of viewers, the lowest in 25 years and the only time a SOTU was ranked favorably by less than 70% of viewers.
President Trump? His 2017 speech was favored by 78% of viewers and his 2019 one by 76%.
Am I alone in seeing something reptilian in Biden's face when he makes his angry face?
It's like They Live when the protagonist sees the space creatures all around him, the system showing its true face.
His savage demeanor is the Blob warning us to obey or else.
That’s caused by repeated face lifts and insane amounts of Botox- vainest and most venal man alive- plus stupid- the Botox got to his brain
Yes, the unnatural tightness brought about by the face lifts and the way his eyes become snake-like when he makes his Angry Face.
Biden was a jerk when I covered him in the 1988 Iowa caucus but at least he didn't look like he'd stepped off the set of Nightmare on Elm Street.
When I look at him now I think we're really in trouble.
“When I look at him now I think we're really in trouble.“
Our whole world is in a tailspin and really in trouble. It’s definitely not only America that has severe internal problems. Both India and China also do plus severe economic and environmental problems.
Many people are having to re-think their opinions about David Icke. Pelosi has the same evil features.
Who is David Icke?
Icke has often been reviled and mocked about his theory that the world is controlled by shape-shifting space aliens and that our emotions, anger, and drama all provide "loosh" (i.e. food for demons). On the other hand, I just finished his newest book and here is a thought-provoking quote from it:

I’m surprised you haven’t heard of him since you mentioned reptilian. Definitely look him up, he’s got some crazy perspectives.
Love VDH!

Yep. It would be far better to send an aide with a written report.
Megyn Kelly's take down of Biden's BS is the best analysis of that trainwreck of a speech I have seen. I urge everybody to check it out.
SOTU? How about STFU!
Got a URL for it?
It is embedded in Sasha's piece above.
I agree that the SOTU speech was horrible and that Biden himself is horrible.
But the most horrible thing of all is my hunch that he will win re-election.
Not sure on what you're basing your hunch. But, if that happens, it will become highly apparent that the election process is, as a lot of us suspect, as corrupt as those in office. Which also begs the question, if Biden is re-installed, what next?

My point is that the fix is in.
The left no longer controls Twitter or X. Hunter Biden laptop suppression helped Joe win. Blatant election interference.
Musk could lose control of X. That's the goal of the Biden administration's lawfare against Musk.
I don't like feeling hopeless but I think we are faced with an unprecedented situation where one party, the Democrats, stands a good chance of consolidating a de facto dictatorship.
In many ways it already has.
I share your concerns, Elon is definitely on the black list
“In many ways it already has.”
Think about what you just said here and you’ll understand why I say only AI can save our sinking ship. Many say AI is “scary” as if being ruled by criminally insane fanatics isn’t.
You see AI as a magic bullet that will solve our problems.
I think AI will simply allow our rulers to oppress us even more.
“My point is that the fix is in.”
Is the Electoral Fix Already In?

It comes down to this: how far are Republicans willing to go to defeat Biden?
It's the same question Sean Connery asked Kevin Costner in The Untouchables. How far are you willing to go to put Capone in jail?
Can’t be done. We cannot coexist. We cannot separate. Too many of them for us to prevail. Too many of us for them to prevail. We are then heading for implosion aka civilizational collapse.

Like HAL 9000 in the movie, AI would save the planet by killing humans. In fact, it is hard to believe that AI is not currently running the USSA.
Fraud reelection anyway
If you can't beat 'em, cheat 'em.
Sad old man who has no clue and has no opinions of his own. The very definition of a sock puppet.
“and has no opinions of his own.”
He definitely has opinions of his own. His “fiery” speech was fueled by his intensely burning hate for those who oppose him. I think it was VDH in a different article who said Joe only seems to come alive when he talks about Trump and MAGA which he hates and considers “a clear and present danger” to America.

Really, the GOP should have just stayed home and told him to deliver his report in writing. What a shit show.

The world needs a healthy US, and can't afford this level of cultural, political, and psychological BULLSHIT.
Sorry to interrupt. It's not the 'world' that needs a healthy United States...it's we, the people of these United States that need a healthy US.
One flows from the other, my man.
Let's get it here and now, first. Then maybe expand the concept.
Agreed 1000%
Not if the world requires Forever Wars. Then we the people of the US get screwed.
At one time, people believed that a healthy Roman Empire was vital. At one time, people believed the Pope was a Christian. At one time, Brittania ruled the seas. Things change. Amerika, despite its bluster and its attempt to rule the world, is a worn-out wreck. The ship is sinking and the captain is clearly unaware.

George Washington and Joe Biden.
The distance between these two people is measured in light years.
I am embarrassed to put these two names together in the same comment.
