I knew the GWOT cabal is/was a huge influence on the GOP but until Sodrock laid it all out, I did not realize just how many of these guys are in high levels of administration
An extensive air campaign in Yemen, air strikes in Iraq and Somalia, and U.S. troops still deployed to Syria despite an end to the civil war. Why has an administration that is made up of so many figures critical of “forever war” continuing “forever war” unabated? I have a theory.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

can't decide if they are knowingly trying to reduce US influence abroad or if they're just so averse to academic language that they can't read between the lines of the program titles. are they confused that they don't see programs titled like "spies" & "bribes" & so on lol
It's so extremely wild to see that in less than 3 months Elon single-handedly is shredding decades of work the CIA did to build economic soft-power bases throughout Africa and Asia.

These bigots openly worship the antichrist and are engaged in acts of human sacrifice
A 24-year-old transgender man from Minnesota who had been missing since December was subjected to violence and torture before his body was found last week in a field in New York, the authorities said. Five people were arrested in connection with his death and charged with murder, the police said.
Trans Man Killed in New York Was Tortured for Two Months, Police Say
The body of Sam Nordquist, 24, was found in a field after he had been reported missing. The district attorney in Ontario County, N.Y., called the circumstances surrounding the death “beyond depraved.”

Elon is not looking for 'waste, fraud & abuse', he's killing the entire dept of education and the anti-scam police (CFPB). It's a deeply corrupt, far-right anti-government fundamentalist project. Any media outlet still pretending he's cutting 'waste, fraud & abuse' is either a dupe or lying to you.
