(đź§µ) THREAD: Donald Trump is clearly fading mentally and physically. His running mate was handpicked by a Kremlin-agent white supremacist (Tucker Carlson) and two creepy far-right billionaire techno-authoritarians (Peter Thiel and Elon Musk).

This is not the election you think.
1/ No Trump voter is saying that they are voting for Trump because they want J.D. Vance to be president. Or Elon Musk. Or Peter Thiel. MAGA voters believe they will be getting MAGA if they vote red.

They are absolutely not going to get that. They are going to get the *opposite*.
2/ Donald Trump is running to stay out of prison, which he’s entitled to do.

But he didn’t expect to win in 2016 and didn’t enjoy being president. He might not have run this time had he not felt embarrassed about 2020 and been worried about being imprisoned if he loses immunity.
3/ He’s hiding his medical records and looks and sounds unwell. He’s cancelling events due to—his own team says—“exhaustion.” He’s doing fewer events than ever. He’s rambling and mixing up dates and names more than ever before, to the point media is starting to write about it.
4/ He would be the oldest human to be sworn in as president. His wife and daughter have largely abandoned him. He just swayed and bopped silently to his own iPod playlist in front of a crowd for 40 minutes. There’s something wrong with him. Even if he wins, he won’t be president.
5/ All this was known to Musk, Thiel and Rupert Murdoch when they convened in California early this summer (feel free to Google it; it’s uncontested) to figure out who’d be Trump’s running mate. They and their ally Tucker Carlson knew the GOP VP candidate would be de facto POTUS.
6/ Canada just revealed it has evidence that Tucker Carlson is a Kremlin agent. So at least one of the men who chose the MAGA ticket is an agent of an enemy of America.

Obviously this is enough to avoid that ticket like the plague—forever—but that is just the tip of the iceberg.
7/ Peter Thiel is part of a creepy far-right techno-authoritarian cult headed by failed coder and utterly mid “intellectual” Curtis Yarvin.

Yarvin has proposed that he and a group of other tech bros decide which humans worldwide are “productive” and turn all the others into goo.
8/ Oh, you think I’m kidding? newrepublic.com/article/183971…
9/ You’ll notice that the Yarvinist listed in the headline of the preceding article *isn’t* Thiel. No—it’s Thiel’s disciple, Vance, who Thiel *and Yarvin* have been grooming (yes, that is the right word) for years to become president so that Yarvin and Thiel can rule through him.
10/ When they saw that Trump was running not to be president but to avoid jail; when they saw how elderly and infirm Trump had become, and incapable of being POTUS even if elected; when Tucker Carlson convinced Trump that picking anyone but the Yarvinist Vance would cause him...
11/ ...to get assassinated by the Deep State (again, Google it, it’s uncontested that this is how Kremlin agent Tucker Carlson got Trump to pick Vance); they realized this was the moment to make their techno-authoritarian dream come true.

And it has *nothing* to do with MAGA.
12/ Elon Musk will be U.S. co-president if Trump wins... not with Trump, but with Peter Thiel.

J.D. Vance, who—again—is in a cult in which Peter Thiel is his mentor and superior and which is headed by Curtis Yarvin, would simply be the executor of a techno-authoritarian agenda.
13/ MAGAism is far-right populism. Rightly or not, some working-/middle-class voters see it as a political ideology under which they’re finally seen.

That’s no longer the GOP ticket’s agenda.

Techno-authoritarianism—which Musk and Thiel and Carlson are piggybacking atop MAGA...
14/ ...takes exactly the opposite view of the working- and middle-classes. Under Musk and Thiel’s theology—the right word, as they treat tech as a God rather the Father, the Son, or the Holy Spirit—the working/middle classes are good for nothing because they do not “innovate.”
15/ What Yarvin has settled on, in place of the *worldwide genocide he initially advocated for*, is simply *imprisoning* all non-innovators in a virtual reality (yes, like the movie The Matrix!) so that Musk, Thiel, Murdoch, and other rich men can “innovate” in peace.

Google it!
16/ So when Musk leaps about like a jack-in-the-box at his rallies and talks about white people needing to have more babies and government needing to basically go away completely and tries to pretend that is all for the sake of MAGA he is *lying*. He is *conning*. It is a *scam*.
17/ Elon believes government is unnecessary because when *you MAGAs*—and it will be nearly all of you!—are liquidated into goo to fuel buses (the first Yarvin Scheme) or imprisoned forever in a meaningless virtual reality locked away from anything that matters (the second one)...
18/ ...what need will there be for government? Or all your white babies? They will simply be digitized so that Elon, Trump, Murdoch, Carlson, Thiel, Putin and a few oligarchs from each white nation can live in a techno-utopia fueled by...

...well, *you*, actually. Your *prison*.
19/ Think this sounds crazy?

It *is* crazy! It is f*cking genocidal! Because these people *are crazy*!

And they will be running America come January without *anyone* vetting their techno-fascist ideas.

So why is media ignoring all of this? I have no idea! It’s all in the open!
20/ My point: let’s say you’ve settled on voting for Trump for some reason, or are still open to it. You need to understand that that’s immaterial *because he won’t be in charge*.

You owe it to yourself, your family, and your friends to look up all of the *actual* ideas in play:
KEY TERMS IN ELON’S ANTI-MAGA TECHNO-FASCISM:

🟥 TESCREALism
🟥 Transhumanism
🟥 Techno-authoritarianism
🟥 AGI^

*Do this research before you vote*.

^This is what will make working/middle-class people expendable to Elon and his digital robber-baron peers.
NOTE/ Project 2025 is still a short-term danger, as the techno-fascists and white supremacists need Christian evangelicals to be duped into voting their way for this dystopian future to be born. So yes, MAGAs *will* get Project 2025’s terrors for a few years before goo or prison.
MORE/ I didn’t get into this aspect of Yarvinism—as the goo-or-prison component of this Thiel/Vance-supported cult is bad enough—but Yarvin also knows America will have to switch from a democracy to a tyranny before you/your family are killed/imprisoned.
vox.com/policy-and-pol…
MORE/ Think Elon’s your friend, tech bros? Think he’s your friend, Elongelicals? You’ll be goo or imprisoned with the rest. These techno-fascists think only a small number of rich men deserve to live.

The rest of us are expendable. Even Trump is, to them. nytimes.com/2024/10/18/mag…
MORE/ The premise of this thread isn’t radical.

Based on uncontested major-media reporting from both right and left, the view inside the GOP is that Trump is ailing; Vance was handpicked by techno-fascists; and Yarvinism wants us dead or imprisoned.

Know what you’re voting for.
PS/ If you can sleep at night knowing it’s actually a Yarvinist ticket (Thiel-Musk) that will run America if Trump wins, rather than Trump—with Vance as its instrument—you have more intestinal fortitude than me. I thought Trumpism was bad; Yarvinism is an extinction-level event.
PS2/ Don’t think this is everything on Trump being sick; Vance being a plant; Thiel, Musk, Murdoch and Carlson being a white-supremacist far-right cabal of digital robber barons who hold meetings.

Use Google—major media only—and you’ll find a lot on this. ft.com/content/cfbfa1…
PS3/ On how Kremlin agent Carlson convinced Trump to pick the Yarvinist Vance—a Thiel/Musk stooge—by using the paranoia Trump is infamous for against him, telling him he would be killed if he didn’t pick Vance.

Where did I read this? *The New York Times*. nytimes.com/2024/07/16/us/…
PS4/ Elon has no interest in MAGA. He’s almost no history of supporting it.

Why is he now all-in? He realized Trump isn’t going to be president and Trump offered him a supra-Cabinet job—a job where he can fire Cabinet members by closing their departments. nytimes.com/2024/10/11/us/…
PS5/ The truth has only just started to come out since July. And yes, I agree with you it’s crazy! None of it makes any sense to any normal person! But these aren’t normal people—you have to understand that.

These ultra-rich weirdos aren’t like any of us. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
PS6/ Why was Elon so concerned about oppo research on *Vance* leaking that he took a step he explicitly said he would never take?

Because Vance is the stooge who will be an instrument of Musk and Thiel. Musk does not expect Trump to be an obstacle to him. newrepublic.com/post/186423/el…
PS7/ MAGAs, why on *Earth* would you think rich tech bros care about you? They explicitly follow a Yarvinist doctrine that has you being turned into goo or imprisoned forever in a virtual reality. They’re *very* open about this. Why would you support them? npr.org/2024/07/17/g-s…
PS8/ For f*ck’s sake, The Cabal *literally held a dinner party in the Hollywood Hills* like supervillains!

Attending were Kremlin agents and apologists, white supremacists, far-right media mavens and techno-fascists.

None of these people are actual MAGA. the-independent.com/news/world/ame…
PS9/ A year from now the headlines will be everywhere—not just on major media but on MAGA podcats, MAGA Rumble vlogs, and MAGA influencer feeds—saying MAGA was betrayed. Trump needed money to help him avoid jail and he sold out MAGA to get it.

The techno-fascists are *not MAGA*.
PS10/ So if you have a friend or family member who is MAGA, share this thread with them or RT it. Stop trying to convince them to not be MAGA. That’s over. And it’s irrelevant, anyway—because MAGA will be dead soon either way.

The fight now is *all* of us against techno-fascism.
APPENDIX A/ This paragraph, on the Yarvinism of Thiel and Musk and Vance, is uncontested. This is the truth they hope no one will tell you over the next 18 days.

Well, I am telling you.

🔗: newrepublic.com/article/183971…Image
APPENDIX B/ And this paragraph, on the Yarvinism of Thiel and Musk and Vance, is *also* uncontested.

(The “he” here is Yarvin—the cult leader. Yarvinism is for tech mavens, not you. It is diametrically opposed to MAGA and is about to steal MAGA from under the noses of MAGAs.)

Hi, I speak Trump Administration fluently and am here to help.

What Steven is saying is that Trump has recently lost weight because he's suffering from a major medical event and ongoing serious medical condition he's hiding from voters.

Just invert the words and you've got it. Image
The other thing to remember about speaking Trump Administration is that the angrier they are, the more important the truth they're speaking by shouting the opposite of it is. So apparently this medical condition is really really bad, and the White House is really scared about it.
Some may ask, Seth, as a journalist, how did you learn Trump Administration? And why can so few in media speak it?

The answer is simple: I spent years reading messaging from Trump's political ops, and observed that the truth is always exactly the opposite of what they say it is.

Hey, @PeteHegseth, just because you were born a shitheel doesn't mean you have to spend your life as one. Accept that you have a problem with drinking and women and that the job you now hold is way beyond you. Accept also that it's on *you* for taking the job, not on anyone else.
Pete needs family and therapy, not one of the highest-stress jobs on Earth. He doesn't engage in self-care because he's such a narcissist that he can't accept his flaws. His anger is self-loathing, his accusations are projection, and he doesn't have the heart of a public servant.
Humanity has thousands of years of data on what makes a good leader: someone who performs best under stress, who has great empathy and self-knowledge, and has both respect for process and temperance. Hegseth has none of these...but may not be smart or courageous enough to see it.

(🚨) COMMUNITY NOTE: All of this is a lie being told by a would-be dictator to obscure the fact that he is kidnapping and exiling US residents without due process. This image is crudely doctored, and no court has ever found Garcia to be an MS-13 member or that he harmed his wife.
1/ Garcia *fled* from gang violence in El Salvador when he was a minor, with a federal court finding in 2019 that he was non-removable to El Salvador on the grounds that he is a *victim* of gang violence likely to be killed if returned El Salvador.

He is a permanent US resident.
2/ Years ago, the US citizen Garcia is happily married to filed for a temporary restraining order, i.e. a court order granted "ex parte"—without both parties present—and without due process. She never pursued it further, so Trump is lying about a court finding he harmed his wife.

This was a potential outcome discussed at length in my pinned report.

The Court demands signs of effort but not a result—a win for the Trump administration, as it appears to confirm its theory that Bukele has control over anyone on his soil.

This is bad. cnn.com/2025/04/10/pol…
Do be careful in reading analysis of this case. Casual observers who aren't familiar with it will tell you this was a win for Garcia—and it certainly will be if Trump and his pal in El Salvador decide to save his life. But as a matter of the law going forward, this is a disaster.
The legal question was whether a human body comes under the control of a foreign dictator the moment that body is put on a plane to that country and the plane leaves the ground.

The implication of this decision is that the answer is yes. Which means the disappearances can start.

OMG... it was all AI.

They didn't even care enough about the American economy to do any of the work themselves.

It almost feels... impeachable?

How could sloppily using AI to create domestic policy, then hiding it, be consistent with the Oath of Office? theverge.com/news/642620/tr…
This explains everything. The bad tariff math, placing tariffs on uninhabited islands, the odd errors that keep popping up in administration texts, the fact that Musk has said he wants to replace the humans in our government with AI, the fact that he *runs an AI company*.... JFC!
So much makes sense now. The website deletions that seem based on the most imbecilic reading of search results, the bizarrely high number of EOs, the obsession with the idea that people don't matter because AI can do everything in government... few if any humans are at the wheel!

Musk is now a bigger fount for toxic, self-aggrandizing bullshit than P.T. Barnum ever was.

He’s an utter 🤡—and that’s both a historical and provable fact. There’s nothing non-journalistic about observing when a man has become infamous for his rank nonsense and foolish gambits. Image
But that’s only the start of the story.

PROOF has outlined—with full sourcing—how Musk for years avoided politics on the advice of his father, and for years avoided revealing his far-right ideologies for fear they would destroy his business empire.

He was right. It’s happening.
In other words, he *knew* his far-right ideologies would be grotesque to consumers.

He *knew* that if he entered politics in America, those ideologies would cause him to become an instant target for hate from a majority of patriotic Americans—who unlike him believe in democracy.
