This is my take as well. All this is about keeping him off national stage. But actually dislodging him from his NY lair seems close to impossible to me.
a) of course it's not random it's happening this way (far worse still submerged & no one even mentions the normalized deep corruption that=his entire career)
b) to think he could be taken down in NY itself is to think we still live in some kind of open democracy lol
Much political corruption is embedded so deep in US now it is no longer effectively considered corruption, although much of the public still pretends or foolishly believes otherwise. The separation btwn reality & media helps keep up appearances, but now even that's wearing thin.
The idea that voters are deciding fate of these states in which there is one controlled narrative and power flows downward via one party is just as foolish. Like the idea that the roving media merely reports stories for the sake of the common good based on coming across evidence.

Of course American Moment wants to put itself in charge and credential a new young elite on the Right. Because this is what is needed. NOTE WELL: National Review still sees itself as the policeman of the "movement" and ATTACKS young conservatives actually doing and building.
I don't know when subscribers will understand, but NR routinely attacks the actual energy on the Right, as if it senses where new and promising signs of life exist and seeks to destroy root them out and destroy them. There was no reason to publish this asinine hit piece.
No *good* reason. There were, of course, many bad ones. Not least of which is that they feel their own power and influence slipping away. At this point, although I hate to have to say it, I don't think that can happen fast enough.
The most cognitively dissonant aspect of our society is dumping porn all over the internet & into everyone's life, encouraging everyone to have sex w/basically no strictures or purpose whatsoever, celebrating whoring out of girls w/stuff like Only Fans, & then turning around &...
pretending none of this causes any kind of damage or concern & acting shocked when harassment by powerful figures is made public. OMG is Harvey Weinstein a vicious creep? WhO kNeW?!? Is Cuomo creepily sniffing out young staffers to see who's willing? I DON'T BELIEVE IT!?!
Wake the hell up. The halls of power in America are corrupt in every way. This is one of them. How many drug addicted, homeless prostitutes do you have to kill (THAT WE KNOW OF) in LA before the DA takes action again? Could you remind me again?
You know wut actually shows your privilege? Reducing everything to race as ultimate cause of everything else unlike normal people (yes, of every race) in this damn country, most of whom aren't on twitter, didn't go to intersectionality skool, & think all of you are rich lunatics.
That would be the 2/3rds of America without a college degree and the 4/5ths of America who are not on the Twitter. That would be the discourse of the vast majority of the 330 million people in this nation who aren't simping as useful idiots for a tightening oligarchy.
I mean it's fine if you want to shill for a tightening oligarchy by trying to foment racial tribalization/war but when you start getting all high & mighty/actually appear to *believe* this ideological bullshit that people get pissed off at you. True, they have to abide by it...
Does the simp actually imagine that he will get to the girl somehow IRL by means of digital simping or is he so soy that he just does it anyway for some other reason? I’m young enough to see the phenomenon develop but too Gen X and married to quite comprehend.
I imagine what normally occurs is sort of like a strip club. Each simp imagines she likes him and he has or could have a special relationship with the stripper even tho this is a hilarious fantasy if examined in the harsh light of reality.
But for all but the real crazies it’s sort of a pantomime on both sides catering to real desires or needs in a disordered and fantastical way.
Rush Limbaugh was one of the most influential political figures of the last thirty years as well as the master of a medium in a way few figures in history can claim. Yet elites on right and left seemed continuously committed to underplaying his talent and influence.
One of the more obvious but powerful moves on the part of President Trump—the sort of thing most Republican leaders would never do—was to recognize Limbaugh. This drove the uniparty establishment crazy of course but it was right and just. Limbaugh was the rarest of talents. RIP.
Rush was the actual “conservative movement” for a long time, putting into words what millions felt and thought of as common sense. Many intellectual types and thinktanks and other leaders were carried along by him without even realizing it.
Yea this is a rare extreme weather event, but winter storm is obviously exposing flaws in Texas grid.
Given the few facts authorities/ energy companies are releasing millions will be w/o power throughout the week.
This has real political legs, & spin battle has already begun:
God knows what things will look like at end of week.
Battle unfolds 2 ways: Ds demand TX get back on national grid/attack old R energy policy/mock secession, etc
Rs will say this is due to green insanity. But not likely as simple as frozen windmills, although those didn’t help:
Galaxy brain solution is Rs must not only reject green nonsense but demand we build back better. Need to think about Musk-level mega-projects for self-sustaining grid that leads world without ideological hindrances in any direction.
