When Trump lost, the media immediately decided to chase ratings by hyping the danger of a Trump 2024 comeback. When the 1/6 attack ensured Trump had no future, the media ignored this fact, and kept hyping Trump 2024. So the public never figured out the Trump movement died on 1/6.
I spent the days after 1/6 spelling out at the top of my lungs that the Trump movement had just ended. The public finally decided Trump supporters were thugs. Trump lost his Twitter voice. The signs were all there. It was over for Trump. Now it turns out Roger Stone saw it too.
Roger Stone’s gung ho words just before 1/6, captured in this documentary footage, prove him guilty of seditious conspiracy. But his words immediately after the failed Capitol attack are just as revealing, when he admits it’s the worst thing that ever happened to Trump world.
Scary that Stone and I would agree on anything. But it was that obvious that the Trump movement, and any faint hope Trump had for 2024, died the minute the Capitol was breached. The media and pundits all knew it too. But the facts interfered with their long term ratings strategy.
So instead the media has subjected us to fourteen months of total bullshit about how Trump is going to make some magical comeback in 2024 and destroy us all – when even Trump’s own closest allies knew fourteen months ago that it was all over for Trump and his movement.
What have we accomplished by spending the past fourteen months staring at our screens in fear about an imaginary Trump comeback? Nothing. Biden has had to all the work by himself without our help. Putin snuck back up on us. And it’s so obvious now that Trump is long gone.
So what now? Sit around and stare at our screens and fret more? Waste another year doing nothing but driving up the media’s ratings numbers? Or do we learn from this? The media keeps bullshitting us with doomsday narratives. Let’s MOVE ON and become actual activists instead!
Biden’s approval rating is spiking right now, amidst the showdown with Putin. We can win the midterms. They’re just eight months away. Let’s get to work RIGHT NOW on voter registration and outreach.

This is just one poll, and we’ll need more new polling to see the new averages. But this is a HUGE jump for Biden, just as we predicted. Biden is nailing this moment, and most Americans can see it.
Keep in mind Biden’s average approval rating was already in the low forties. The media is flat out lying to you when it quotes his lowest outlier poll (32%) out of context and ignores all the other polls in the average. You’d have to ask the media why it always lies about polls.
But if this new poll is indeed reflective of where Biden’s new approval rating average is, then he’s gone up six points (he was at 41% and now he’s at 47%), which is a big jump for one week.

Now that Roger Stone’s driver has cut a plea deal against him with the DOJ, there appears to be a chain reaction. Documentary makers have suddenly given 1/6 footage to WaPo that proves Stone guilty of seditious conspiracy. If the DOJ didn’t have the footage before, it does now.
Although it got way too little media coverage, and the outlets that did cover it downplayed the impact on Stone, this week’s oath keeper cooperating plea deal against Stone is THE turning point in the 1/6 criminal probe, and proves the DOJ is (methodically) playing for keeps.
Most of the pundit chatter today will be about how awful it is that Stone “is getting away with it all” in spite of video footage proving his guilt – but that’s backwards. This footage surfaced today because the general public found out that the DOJ is targeting Stone.

1) Lots of people are yelling “This is going to end up a world war anyway, so let’s just start one.” But that presumes there’s a 100% chance this will end in world war, which is wildly wrong. For instance, the oligarchs or Russian military could end up taking Putin out.
2) Do you want to do World War III, where most of all of us die, and then it turns out it was for nothing because Russian insiders were going to take out Putin the next day anyway? Does this sound like a smart idea to you?
3) There are so many smarter and safer avenues for ending this mess than “let’s attack Russia and all die in World War III.” Then again, given that starting World War III is literally the dumbest idea in the history of mankind, of course there are far better strategies.

1) Putin’s attempt at blowing up a nuclear reactor in Ukraine is the kind of move you’d expect from a madman who’s expecting to lose the war and wants to make a mess. It would kill many, many Ukrainians (and likely many Russians). But we don’t know that it’ll actually melt down.
2) That said, this is precisely the kind of shift in circumstances that forces NATO and EU leaders to reevaluate whether merely arming the Ukrainians with superior weaponry is the smartest plan to stick with. No surprise Biden is reportedly on the phone with Zelenskyy right now.
3) NATO can fly in and start bombing the Russian troops. But while most people on Twitter who are calling for this are certain it would “put an end” to the whole conflict, that’s far from a given. It could backfire and make the whole thing worse – including worse for Ukraine.

It's been widely confirmed for months that the DOJ has been having Capitol attackers formally affirm in their guilty pleas that Trump incited them to do it. Translation: cooperating witnesses. People saying "I see no signs the DOJ is investigating Trump" aren't looking very hard.
Does this alone prove the DOJ is going to charge Trump? No. It merely proves that the DOJ is collecting cooperating witnesses against Trump. But it does destroy the popular narrative that "there are no signs the DOJ is investigating Trump." Yet pundits keep repeating it anyway.
The only thing we haven't yet seen is the DOJ indicting anyone in Trump's innermost circle. If and when that happens, we'll start to see things leak out about the case, because those who get indicted will get to start seeing some of the mechanics of the overall investigation.

These defeatists couldn’t possibly know what the DOJ is or isn’t doing about the Mark Meadows contempt referral. When they keep claiming to know that “nothing” is being done, they’re just giving away that they make up negative things for attention. The defeatists are con artists.
If the DOJ really were doing “nothing” about the Meadows referral, don’t you think the 1/6 committee would be publicly throwing a fit by now? Of course the defeatists also like to insist the 1/6 committee is doing “nothing” – even though proof to the contrary is abundant.
It’s not a coincidence that on the day the DOJ got Roger Stone’s oath keeper driver to plead guilty and flip on him, the defeatists are yelling doomsday bullshit more loudly than ever. They’re trying to drown out the good news, so they can keep bashing Garland for cheap retweets.
