"[Thiel's] theory of mimetic rivalry—that we tend to compete over the things that other people want—spoke directly to some of the pressures I experienced at Yale. But it was his related theory of the scapegoat—and what it revealed about Christianity—that made me reconsider my faith," JD Vance, 2019
The Real Stakes, and Real Story, of Peter Thiel’s Antichrist Obsession
Thirty years ago, a peace-loving Austrian theologian spoke to Peter Thiel about the apocalyptic theories of Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt. They’ve been a road map for the billionaire ever since.

After 9/11 joint terrorism task forces were created to expand awareness, improve communications, make cities safer. Now we're weak. AG Ashcroft barred inter-agency communications before 9/11 saying "competition" was great and cooperation 'weak'. KEY INTEL was ignored, missed then. Here we are again.

European leaders accused Russia of a deliberate incursion by sending drones to invade Polish airspace.

“If the Russians were trying to test NATO, NATO passed that test with flying colors,” an official said.

Yes, this Cabinet — with a Fox & Friends drunk, a Real World airhead, a former heroin addict who beheaded a whale, a dog killer, a Russian stooge, a scandal-plagued wrestling executive, etc — this Cabinet is LITERALLY the best America has ever had.

Thank you for that insight, Elon. Smart as ever.
Elon Musk at Trump's first Cabinet meeting: "I think this is the best Cabinet ever. Literally. So, uh, and I do not give false praise... I think it‘s literally the best Cabinet that the country has ever had."

The GOP passed a budget resolution last night that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

The moment in the cabinet meeting where RFK Jr, acting as the actual head of HHS was asked to respond to a deadly measles outbreak caused by vaccine refusal was one of those out-of-body, waking nightmare moments of the Trump era.

It really is reasonable to ask how we could possibly ever forgive our fellow Americans for voting for what is happening to us right now and what is going to continue to happen for years and years.

I mean the simple answer would be... we just don't, right? Ever? Because some things are unforgivable?

This news truly breaks my heart.

We are calling on HHS to take immediate action. Secretary Kennedy needs to bring back weekly measles tracking from the CDC, rehire the health experts, and roll out a serious vaccine campaign. Our kids' safety is on the line!

hello world?

American here.

I am a citizen of the United States an can wholly attest to the threat of a real constitutional crisis.

It is dire. And feels imminent. Our freedom is at risk.

Some "waking up" but too slow in rustling others.

Please advise.

Something that’s very clear is that Trump is old and checked out. He wants to play the role of president but has zero interest in doing the job and is happy to outsource the real work to Musk, Vought and a crew of feral zealots.

Senate and House Republicans largely agree they need to make President Trump’s 2017 tax cuts permanent. The rest of their budget talks are far from resolved.
Republicans’ agenda battles aren’t over, just changing shape
Trump’s party now has to do a ton of heavy lifting to reconcile its two congressional budgets, with a shutdown deadline also coming up.
