Trump couldn't make money owning casinos, stole from his own charity, had his campaign run by two grifters, sold crap on the internet and only god knows how many more #TrumpGrifters are going to jail for running scams. But this..this.. #TrumpScam displays impressive criminality.
Here is another TrumpScam. $18m and some of it went to Citizens United. Back then Trump’s people would issue denials and anguished pleas to not get fooled. rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
What ever happened to this Trump guy? The one that hired Bolton’s and Gary’s ex employees and then was hired by Erik Prince’s pal Christiaan Durrant after the Libya coup mess. Then. Poof! washingtonpost.com/business/econo…
Now a serious question. Did Barr pick non TrumpCrimes to nail Bannon, Nader and maybe very soon Broidy so they can be pardoned before trial? Who else goes in the federal wood chipper before December? wwlp.com/news/may-24-tr…

Understanding Hitler is the key to understanding Trump 2.0. We are in the propaganda and division stage. Leaning into the outrage. Hitler blamed the Jew. Trump blames DEI. (odd, but Antifa and BLM won't pick up the phone) aish.com/understanding-…
"Goebbels was a master at simplifying complex situations in misleading ways and repeating his lies Another facet of Goebbels’s propaganda, is that “it wasn’t important that the individual facts are correct; an item just has to be repeated in the service of a single truth.” Image
"It was a manufactured consensus, a propaganda construct, with repression of political opponents, "racial enemies" and other outsiders as the other side of the coin. The "superman" image of Hitler amounted to the central component of the fabrication." spiegel.de/international/…

The Russian Tail is a statistical anomaly that appears in vote distribution data. In manipulated elections, this curve develops an extended tail, indicating disproportionately high votes for a specific candidate in certain regions or polling stations" lynxotic.com/the-russian-ta…

My thoughts for today; Let Donny roll. Incompetence at speed and scale is historically a healthy thing in the long run. Successful managers respect reality, inertia, logistics, limitations etc. Stupid people think bluster and bullshit trump homeostasis. That leads to...
...an inflection or pivot point. Stability is an enemy to change. Good and bad. Instability is an ideal landscape for change. Pro or con. Let Trump paralyze, terrorize and metastasize the government because it will draw forth change agents to battle his chaos agents.
Trump's reliance on superficial theatrics, threats, insults, and unleashing incompetent subordinates with foolish ideas to disrupt the bureaucratic system we call government will lead to fractures. The much quieter "deep state" understands how the government operates.

Tip: Trump is embracing the Broligarch mantra of "disruption" as in, "move fast and break things." I call it "Smash, Grab and Run" because there are three endstates: 1) Payoffs for corrupt donors, 2) Legacy reshaping and 3) Protection of Trump familial wealth. Image
Trump operates on three levels: 1) rapidly spewing outrage jibberish to keep the media chasing his laser pointer, 2) Echoing donor jingoism to pay bills, and 3) discussing deeply corrupt deals while abusing his office of President.
This is tempered by a) his incompetence (Dunning-Kruger) b) his inability to think strategically and c) betraying his corrupt donors to take the short money instead of the long money. His backers also discard him when he has no beneficial purpose just as he discards his minions.

For those following the fires in California. Fire is a natural part of life here. Santana or devil winds are normal. Wood frame mansions on the edge of brush are common. November 6, 1961 was a similar event. Doesn't minimize the shock or sense of loss. lafire.com/famous_fires/1…
This time we had the jet stream pushed too high. 30 degree variance between day and night. No rain so far (starts in mid-December). Winds out of season. Usually 3 days of hot dry winds from the desert in Sept/Nov. We had a lot of brush grow after two years of great rainfall. Image
The Pacific Palisades is a unique place. Dating back to the 20's. A lot of entertainment people. A lot of Jewish community. The heart of liberal California. Beautiful views and weather. $5M and up. They are going to have a major voice and impact as they get together to rebuild. Image

Back when no one believed that the UK would divorce Europe. Dominic Cummings was not only correct but was behind much of the strategy. economist.com/britain/2016/0…Image
The faces of Leave UK were not your usual politicans.
'A former Vote Leave staffer said that Cummings had a first rate political brain but less developed interpersonal skills. “Some people found him really odd,”. opendemocracy.net/en/opendemocra…
The premise of was false. But that didn't matter. African migrants weren't going to take over the UK. They were already there... from India and the colonies. "I think it’s perfectly reasonable to say ‘Brexit was a mistake and history will prove that’.”newstatesman.com/politics/2021/…
