It’s the missiles~

For real though, the only reason any of this impeachment shit is actually going forward is that Trump has proven himself to be a hindrance to our power and interests at the level of the empire, and that power is what all of the good shit flows from.

Proud to see our boys in the IC get their pound of flesh, this is a regime change I can get behind.

Another good rule to live by, besides ‘never fuck with the empire’: never piss off your spies. That’s like rulership 101.

Also when I say ‘all the good shit’ in that first tweet, I’m not saying this is a morally good thing etc etc, but in an empire power and money makes everything go round and you do not ever knowingly mess with that if you call yourself the leader.

You can tell almost by sight who are the stewards of empire; take a hitter like Coats for example. Once dudes like that start playing the great game the internal domestic political disputes seem completely irrelevant to them. They may technically have R or D, but it’s really E~

Anyway as morally bad as empires are all democracies have or want them and engage in lots of ~foreign aid~ to horrible dictatorships, I recommend again ‘The Dictator’s Handbook’ for a professional-grade analysis of how power politics actually works.

Note how there’s hostile to Trump reporting from even Fox and the WSJ so ‘early’ in the scandal.

This is already a done deal. Trump has lost the support of the military and the intelligence community; they’re pulling the plug, and it’s going to happen with impressive speed.

And when I say ‘the military’ I of course include all our companies involved in the imperial project, whose campaign contributions own a ton of politicians of both parties. That’s why you see even the Rubios being quiet and ‘considering the evidence’ instead of defending Trump.

Trump always does the same shit because personality disorders are programmatic.

If he messed with $500m of missile deals, you bet there’s a bunch more confidential important shit the dumbass decided to mess with that’s nonpublic.

Remember ‘withdrawing from Syria’? Etc.
