"Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is the best guarantee of their loyalty."
I'm mentioning this b/c the folks who hatched the grand theocratic plot to overthrow American pluralist democracy were smart & sophisticated. That's why it's so astonishing that the people they've picked to push the project across the finish line are such blathering idiots.

Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.

People have no idea what a premium we have enjoyed and what losing it will cost us
This piece is a great illustration of how the long-term effect of Trump’s destruction of US institutions won’t be felt in a dramatic market collapse, but rather in permanently worse economic conditions, and lower prosperity.

The fucking gall. She has never been a journalist, and her version of building trust is giving a veto to Stephen Miller (or Donald Trump) about whether they are sending innocents to be tortured in a foreign gulag. The Who-Me destruction of institutions is a pervasive modern cancer in society
Bari Weiss just sent this Christmas Eve email to the CBS News staff about "building trust," which includes her tripling down on spiking the CECOT piece "to make sure it's comprehensive and fair."
One CBS staffer tells me: "She really has no idea how insulting she comes across."

“they divide my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots.”

Psalm 22:18
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Working on my final massive free piece for the end of the year and every sign is suggesting that the people responsible for making sure investments are either entirely ignorant or have trained themselves to be a specific kind of stupid. I am deeply worried.

I think it’s a reflection of their own attitudes. Both Biden and they were trying to live in a fantasy where those 4 years were a return to normalcy as opposed to the most urgent moment in American history to preserve what was left of democracy.

BTW, the Tech Bros think of institutions as “parallel” even if all they do is buy what someone else built & ruin it. X is a prime example. My guess is that they also consider CBS News to be “parallel media” (Tech Bros previously funded Bari Weiss’s The Free Press). Next up is TikTok.
What’s happening with American media, American education, and America’s approach to places like Greenland & Honduras harmonizes with the “network state” movement (backed by Thiel, Lonsdale, Andreessen, etc), which calls for the construction of “parallel institutions” and “parallel societies”. 1/
IMHO, you can’t understand what’s happening to the US if u don’t know about the “network state” movement & its “parallel establishment” strategy, which includes building “parallel societies” (w/ their own physical territories) & “parallel institutions” in media, education, finance, science, etc. 1/

It's important to remember that, in these arrangements, neither the government nor the owners of the media orgs care whether those put in charge of the media orgs are unethical, incompetent, or run them into the ground by losing all their audience. No one cares, as long as they get quiescence.
Wash Post, CBS News, next CNN?, etc are not money makers. The owners give the Trumpists what they want and get favorable treatment for their other businesses in exchange. Owners make money that way. The regime wants quiescence. No one in this exchange cares if the outlets have audience or profits.
