Excellent analysis of Biden hubris about election, Google AI anti-white racism, Trump polling data. Biden isn’t sweating because he’s so senile and prideful that he doesn’t know how bad he looks and is loathed. Google anti-white racist AI engine is intentionally racist and they don’t care; get used to being deleted by them, academia and government. One viable fight option left; Trump.

Biden has lied, cheated, plagiarized, and has never been held accountable. Therefore, he thinks he’s untouchable. He even stated that ‘no one f**ks with a Biden.’ His ego is as big as his deceit.

Another great column and narration- thank you Sasha! I must just take tiny issue with your narrow identification of who is all in against Trump. It certainly isn’t just the left, it’s also that faction in the Republican Party which has decided their constituents are just plain too stupid to grasp how awesome they are, and will therefore will take them - kicking and screaming if necessary- down the electoral path of THEIR choosing.

So they sit back, never actively voicing support for the lawfare used against Trump, but doing nothing to stop it either. They throw some bones occasionally- a strongly worded letter here, an indignant press conference or hearing there, hoping to silence MAGA anger a little longer, all the while PRAYING the lawfare will succeed. They’re certain, ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN, that once that happens, simply everyone will raise Nikki on their shoulders chanting,

“Hail to the Queen!” with fawning adoration.

Here’s to hoping we can vanquish these jerk- ALL of them, who disrespect the collective wisdom of the American people- once and for all!🙏🏻

My greatest fear about all of this is that people are slowly becoming immune to life as it currently is in this country. I don't think we're all the way there yet, but close enough to be worrisome. When I see that Biden has even 38% approval in the polls, I really wonder who that 38% actually is? I just hope enough of them eventually realize that it doesn't have to be this way.

I wonder the same thing. The only explanation that makes sense to me is that the bedrock hatred for Trump outweighs any sort of rational decision making. Look at the depths to which people are sinking to keep him out of office.

Our deranged ruling class has an intense hatred and obsession with destroying Trump and MAGA internally and Putin and Russia externally. This obsession has already severely damaged us internally as well as externally. They will not change. They label both as “another Hitler” and are committed to destroying both.

A tip of the hat for the Moby Dick reference. I learned the term "monomania" when I read it the first time. It also made me read the Bible more closely so I could understand all the novel's references to it, a few of which are central to the story.

The "colorless all color" of the atheistic world view or the Buddhist Void is associated with "the whiteness of the whale."

What a book. Trump is to leftists what the white whale is to Ahab.

“Trump is to leftists what the white whale is to Ahab.”

And so is Putin. They speak of both in the same way. Both are “another Hitler.” Both are “totalitarian fascists intent on conquest.” Both are racist “White Supremacists who must be stopped!!!” The left is insane. No doubt about it.

MY 53 year old son just lost his job - not becuase he did anything wrong - indeed he did everything right - but the compqny for whom he worked as owned by two brothers who were utterly corrupt and my son paid the price

my 52 year old daughter also lost her job recently to be replaced by someone who would work for less pay and wasn't disabled by polio - a woman wearing braces and crutches did fit the company image.

I am a political addict =a retiree who doesnt have to worry about the rent or the next meal or where the next job might be for a middle aged white man and disabled 52 year old woman. I try to explain to them the the policies of our government are responsible for both of their plights but right now this is what normal life is for them.

Human nature is too dysfunction to right this ship which is sinking. Only AI can get control of all of our out of control problems leading us to destruction. Humanity has reached the end of the line. We will not survive a WW3 with the nuclear, biological and cyber weapons we now have plus we also have to worry about Mother Nature destroying us with something like a super volcano. We live our lives dangling by a thread over the abyss. This is no way to live.

You keep thinking of AI programmed by humans which is narrow AI. What we’ve got now though are synthetic neural networks similar to a biological neural network that can learn and reason plus watch these little simulated beings in their simulated realities gradually learn to function in their simulated reality which runs a thousand times faster than our reality to train these “agents.” Then the AI scientists can take what these thousands of different little beings have learned, merge it all together, put it into a robot in our reality, and it will be able to function based on what it learned in the simulated realities. Quite amazing and this is moving faster and faster.

Is there anything about the left that isn’t based on a lie?

The propaganda about the National Socialist ‘Democratic’ American Party has always been that they represent the middle class and blue-collar workers.

Now we know that they are doing everything they can to destroy the middle class. The millions of illegal invaders they’re bringing in to cheat in elections are going to be competing for wages, healthcare, housing, and eventually food with the middle-class and blue-collar workers they supposedly care about.

Rank and file leftists somehow think they’re going to get in on the goodies, but history teaches us that never happens. Inflation from the printing of money and the buying of votes is destroying their savings and wages along with everyone else.

Do they think they’re going to be able to get free healthcare, housing, and other government goodies when millions of others will be in line ahead of them?

The dirty little secret of socialism and collectivism in general is that it elevates a small cadre of comrades of a controller class (and no, we’re not going to praise them and call them ‘elite’).

That is the ‘Utopia’ of the fascist far-left – a two-tiered society with a rich collectivist controller class – call them whatever you want – Soviets, Communalists, Nazis, Communists, etc.

While the rest of society is held in poverty by a security apparatus.

Why is it that rank-and-file leftists can’t see this obvious conclusion?

"Why is it that rank-and-file leftists can’t see this obvious conclusion?"

Because they're utopians and fantasies die hard. Many still think the left = unions, Socialism, and up-the-workers when that faction has been abandoned by the DP since Carter lost and the oligarchs decided to adopt Republican greed with a facade of inclusion that fails to disguise the most cynical, racist, backward nonsense to be cooked up by hare-brained academics since Lysenko.

What do you define as ‘Greed’?

For example – what is your personal profit margin?

What does it cost you to do your job?

The price of your schooling amortised over your career wouldn’t be much per day.

The same thing with your other costs – clothing, transportation, etc.

Let’s say maybe 5 -10% of your pay check

Therefore, the rest of your pay is profit, correct?

Doesn’t that make you Greedy?

So essentially, you can’t address that question because it destroys your false assertion of ‘greed.’

Oh, I missed that phrase, which I admit I didn't put too much thought into, it being a hot take and all.

"Republican greed" refers to the typical Republican practice of exploiting the poor, via both the income tax and the ways their capitalist managerial constituents gouge the working poor as documented, for example, by Barbara Ehrenreich in her book "Nickel and Dimed."

This business of taxation is where I part with my fellow Libertarians. If we're going to have an income tax at all, it stands to reason that the more you make the more you ought to pay, proportionally.

There's no ethical reason for anyone making less than 40 K/year to pay the same rate or even more than someone making over 100K per year. Housing prices and the manipulation of rents is another problem with unregulated markets. I personally once rented a one-bedroom apartment in the early 2000s. An initial rent of 800.00/month was raised by $50.00 every other month until I was faced with paying 1200.00/month for the same box or moving to a cheaper box.

I've also been exploited by employers looking to squeeze every last ounce of productivity from me with zero compensation.

How long has it been since we've had an elected President that was able to exercise his presidential powers set out in our Constitution? How long has it been since you felt you were represented by your reps in Congress? A looooong time. Keep the voters divided and make it impossible for anyone with political ambitions to move up the ladder without a mass infusion of capital from the 1%, propaganda from a fawning media, and backing from foreign fascists and oligarchs. In other words, all those who fear their grip on running the show is threatened. Then along came Trump, the ultimate alpha. The bandwagon is falling apart on them. We're lucky here in north Florida to have Matt Gaetz representing the peasants by protecting Trump's right flank. We need more like him. Remember not just the Alpha on voting day, but also the down ballot choices. Time to send the demons scurrying. Trump leads the ultimate labor strike. Hold the line!

At least since the days of "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," it has been "impossible for anyone with political ambitions to move up the ladder without a mass infusion of capital from the 1%, propaganda from a fawning media, and backing from foreign fascists and oligarchs."

The difference now is that all illusions about who actually runs the country have been dissolved. The Emperor is stark naked. Trump pantsed them, beginning with the fawning, mercenary, lickspittle propaganda press. All the rodents hiding in the woodwork came out when the facade began to crumble. He is not a member of the club and he apparently does not give a shit.

Whether his re-election and the advent of Ramaswamy changes the course of the ship remains to be seen. Who knows the depths to which the rich and powerful will sink to keep whatever hold it is they have on events? It feels like we are on the brink of either destruction or renewal.

“It’s OUR country. We really are the ones that have to make it how we want it.”

Many of our “fellow Americans” believe whatever slop the msm tosses out for them to believe plus the fact that many still do get their info from the msm means that when the msm ignores a story many never know about it so to them it never happened. On the other hand though, our ruling class has severely damaged the country and this is impossible to hide. Far too much social breakdown in cities like Chicago plus we now have the ever worsening “migrant crisis” on top of this and it’s common knowledge that this is due to our open southern border. This is a far different country than it was even just a few years ago before Biden was installed in the White House.

There’s more to election tampering than just “harvesting”.

There’s Zuckerbucks.

There’s no IDs.

There’s mass ballot mail-outs.

There’s unverified mail-in ballots.

There’s months long early voting.

There’s hackable voting machines.

There’s no paper trail.

There’s water leaks in Georgia, that shut down monitored ballot counting, only to have ballot “counting” resume after the monitors are sent home (caught on camera).

At present, there are so many ways to cheat, massively, in an election, without consequence, that you wonder if you are being foolish and wasting your time voting. Citizens need to go to a poling place, show an ID, and fill-in a paper ballot, over a period of, say, 2-3 days. No mail-in ballots. No mass mail-outs of blank ballot. Absentee ballots must be picked up personally. Keep it simple. The French are better at elections than Americans are.

" It was never about Trump; it was about the people he brought into the room, people whose needs they did not want to address - people they routinely throw away like human garbage."

Sasha Stone nailed it!

Here is a fascinating Rasmussen survey of the top 1%, those with graduate degrees from elite schools, live in urban areas and make over $150K/year:

77 percent of the elite 1 percent would like to impose strict restrictions and rationing on the private use of gas, meat, and electricity.

72 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning gas powered vehicles.

69 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning gas stoves.

58 percent of the elite 1 percent favor of banning sport utility vehicles.

55 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning non-essential air travel.

53 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning private air conditioning.

35 percent of the elite 1 percent would rather cheat than lose a close election

That's how they want to treat the rest of us. No surprise censorship, lawfare and intimidation are front and center now.
