I imagine the newspaper is a small little hobby of his, a fraction of his entire wealth.

I know I'm way behind the game, but I finally got to listen to the Rogan podcast today. What an awesome three hours! Using the long form podcast format to allow President Trump the time to "weave" his points together really demonstrated how his mind works and the intelligence behind his plan.
The media loves to cut him up into sound bites or snippets, and delivered like that he does sometimes sound like he's rambling or "out there". But when you allow the man to articulate the entire thought and bring everything together, you can really see the logic in his process. He's brilliant, he just gets to his conclusions in a different manner than some people.
I'm not sure if Rogan had shared his questions ahead of time or not, but the way that conversation played out it really didn't matter. Trump was engaged for the entire three hours, was straightforward and honest, and I don't think anybody could have scripted it if they'd tried. I heard later that it was only supposed to go for an hour because Trump had prior appointments, but they got to talking and it went on for three.
I've always been in agreement with Trump's policies, but have had some misgivings about him as a person. I've voted for him three times in the General election, but never in a primary. I've already cast my vote for him this year (early voted last week), so I guess in that respect listening to the podcast didn't make much difference, but I now have a much greater respect for the man and confidence in his intellect. Hopefully there are a lot of people out there who listen to that interview and have a greater appreciation for who he is and what he's trying to do when they go to the polls next week.

Everything the DNC and media are doing are STRAIGHT out of the National Socialist playbook from 1930's Germany, and we all saw how that worked out for the world.

Right now President Trump has grounds and support for massive import tariffs. That kills Bezos’ business of bringing cheap shit Chinese goods into America.
Bezos is, undoubtedly, thinking supporting Kamalalalala would be really bad for his business, thus, this every so tiny olive branch to President Trump.
Great point, I hadn't thought about that.

I just saw a political ad on Youtube for RFK, specifically targeting his "MAGA opponent".
The Left is truly diabolical.

When I see things like this, I have to wonder about the accuracy of the rest of the article. Whatever power Eisenhower may have allowed Nixon to have in the 1950s, Nixon really had no power in the 1960s. He held no office until sworn-in in January 1969, 9 months after Dr. King's assassination.
Whatever surveillance Hoover was doing on King and other civil rights leaders in the 1960s, he was doing on his own (something for which he had a reputation), or under the direction of Democrats JFK and LBJ.
Nixon had his faults, as all Presidents have had, but making him the convenient whipping boy for all things bad in the 1960s and 1970s is just lazy in this case. In other cases, it is pure Leftist propaganda.

Former Trump Chief Strategist Steve Bannon was released from prison today one week early before Election Day. Like Peter Navarro, he served a 4 month term for telling the J6 committee to pound sand.

The embarrassment is completely excised.
YT has a pretty strong anti-theft stance on copyrighted music. The artists can have things scrubbed. Presumably AI or other tools scan videos. Don Henley of the Eagles is infamous for squashing any video with his music.
Artists sometimes even find their own performances that they posted of their own music scrubbed!
It would be simple for YT to edit out Springsteen's singing either at his request or on their own initiative.

I'm normally an optimistic guy, then I read something like the article below and know I'm not going to sleep well--not until November 6, but until January 22.
As I write in my forthcoming book Disappearing the President, Democratic Party research and media reports show that many senior party officials and operatives are preparing for the possibility of a Trump victory. Accordingly, planning is focused on undermining the incoming president with enough violence to rock his administration. Prominent post-election scenarios forecast such widespread rioting that the newly elected president would be compelled to invoke the Insurrection Act. With some senior military officials refusing to follow Trump’s orders, according to the scenarios, the U.S. Armed Forces would split, leaving America on the edge of the abyss.
By vilifying Trump as a despotic madman who must be stopped before he can commence his reign of terror, the regime’s propaganda apparatus not only slanders Trump but also pre-emptively threatens the reputation, as well as the livelihood and perhaps the liberty, of current military personnel. The point is to push the military against Trump: When the time comes to act, will you stand for democracy or side with a tyrant who sees the military only as an instrument to advance his personal interests?
quote:
As with the 2020 wargames, the two opposing teams were staffed by former government officials from the Republican as well as the Democrat establishment. The results were announced with a mid-summer media rollout to ready other officials and operatives for likely post-election operations. Four articles were published the same day, July 30 — in the New Republic; the Guardian; the Washington Post, which ran a piece by Gellman; and Brooks herself writing for the Bulwark — showing that Brooks and Gellman’s scenarios, at least those disclosed, assume a Trump victory. The play then is to block.
Disruption, destabilization, and violence are legitimized by a narrative driven by self-congratulatory mirror-imaging and projection in which the so-called defenders of democracy face down an authoritarian Trump.
Brooks and her cohort ignore the evidence of Biden and Harris’s abuse of power and assert that it is Trump who will who use the federal government against his opponents. It is Trump’s CIA and DOJ, according to the wargamers, that will cashier national security officials for “raising concerns about the politicization of intelligence and the pressure to launch ideologically motivated investigations.” It is Trump who will use the IRS to go after nonprofits. It is at Trump’s behest that journalists will be targeted and Democrat-aligned media outlets investigated as the FCC revokes broadcast licenses. And, writes Brooks, the Trump administration will force out top military officials on account of their “objecting to Trump’s cozy relationship with Russia.”
The forecasts read like paranoid fantasy, but they’re carefully scripted inversions of reality meant to to rewrite history and obscure the crimes of the Left that have shaken the pillars of the republic.
The most alarming scenario involves political and military officials “resisting efforts to federalize their national guard units and send them to quell anti-Trump protests in major U.S. cities.” That is, the post-election playbook calls for (or takes for granted) widespread violence so intense that the president invokes the Insurrection Act. The forecast posits a split in the senior ranks of the U.S. military after Trump replaces the chiefs of staff with officers who comply with his order and deploy forces to put down the riots.
This is where the political violence cultivated by the destructive Left is leading: blood-soaked streets and a divided military. The purpose of the Hitler narrative is to force members of the military to turn against Trump. After all, loyalty to the constitution means fighting Hitler, not obeying his orders.
In my opinion, we mustn't shut our eyes to the real possibility of the worst outcome that may happen even in the shadow of a Trump landslide.

Anyone that has not been preparing for major social unrest following the election is not being prudent, IMNSHO. Whether Trump wins or loses, I believe there are forces poised to wreak havoc. The nature, focus, and duration of the mayhem depends on who wins the election, but not the likelihood that bad actors are going to start trouble.
