Biden falls described by Van Rooten (sound-alike French)

Humpty Dumpty
Sat on a wall.
Humpty Dumpty
Had a great fall.
And all the king’s horses
And all the king’s men
Couldn't put Humpty Dumpty
Together again.

Un petit d’un petit
S’étonne aux Halles
Un petit d’un petit
Ah! degrés te fallent
Indolent qui ne sort cesse
Indolent qui ne se mène
Qu’importe un petit d’un petit
Tout Gai de Reguennes.

A child of a child
Is surprised at the Market
A child of a child
Oh, degrees you needed!
Lazy is he who never goes out
Lazy is he who is not led
Who cares about a child of a child
Like Guy of Reguennes

Trump is the only candidate campaigning against stupidity. The rest are campaigning against evil.

That's how Trump got a deal with NK where nobody else could have.

The dems are uniformly against evil.

That brings up Arendt's law, that virtue that goes public turns into the worst sort of evil.

Stupidity, on the other hand, can be turned.

Well, I can't say I would recommend that sequel to Less Than Zero, Imperial Bedrooms, to anybody, as it is pretty disturbing and gruesome, but it was written in 2010, and the "protagonist," Clay, seems to have turned into Harvey Weinstein, which is pretty funny, #MeToo was just revealing a widely known and accepted truth about Hollywood.

My theory of "where ideas come from" is that the people who are really good at having them are really people who recognize when some accidental juxtaposition of concepts creates value. Other people have these juxtapositions, but they don't recognize their potential, and shrug them off.

There is zero "analysis" in the linked article.

Zero.

Its all pure conjecture since Mathews has no insider info or contacts to ask so is left to simply toss in the tweets of others!

Come to think of it, simply listing the tweets of others and considering that "analysis" is very on-brand for lonejustice. Or should I say LLR lonejustice?

The movie is up but if you want to share it, comment on it, retweet it, like it or bookmark it, you won't be able to.

The movie is being throttled.

I am unsure why the common word "stroke" was not used. Ischemic strokes, in which blood flow to the brain is blocked, happen to more than a half million people every year.

Strokes are the number one cause of disability in the United States and the third leading cause of death. Anyone that has family members with heart disease or hypertension will also have a hereditary risk of strokes.

Well, no. Better to drag it out some more, in fact. And make sure the trial will be going on next summer, 2024, so the Republican Convention can only nominate Trump when he is actively in the dock being prosecuted for treason against his own country. Or something they can refer to in such terms.

Tactical nukes being moved to the Ukraine theater by both sides.

US wanted to wrest control of the Black Sea from Russia.
Ukraine hyper nationalists wanted to expand the borders of their smallish nation-state to fill all of the land that fell into their hands with the collapse of the USSR. So we took up common cause with nazis.

Russia wanted to keep its 200 year hold on the Black Sea and keep NATO weapons and 2nd largest army in Europe from joining the aggressive NATO military alliance (George, Libya, Syria, Iraq) off its borders.

Russia has now referred to Ukraine as "the territory known as Ukraine," the same Russia that wanted a peace deal at the start of the war, while Biden preferred this war.

This is brilliant diplomacy by Joe Biden. This is not going to end at the bargaining table. It's on rails to total war, and *both* sides have policies that include battlefield nukes if things go badly on the conventional front. At this point, I think that Russia would be happy if Ukraine got glassed, and the US wants to provoke Russia to use nukes in order to completely isolate Russia diplomatically, because what we are trying so far isn't working. The problem is that the US is seen as the aggressor in most of the world, the vast majority of the world that is not under complete US domination, in fact, so I am not sure that those people are going to blame Russia.

The problem too is that the slightest miscalculation, with nukes going off so close to Moscow, will lead to an apocalyptic nuclear war.

But it will all be worth it, because it matters so much that Kiev rules over the ethnic Russians who live in Donbas and Crimea who have been successfully fighing off Kiev for eight years.

US Air Force official says, 'It killed the operator because that person was keeping it from accomplishing its objective'
The AI system learned that its mission was to destroy SAM, and it was the preferred option. But when a human issued a no-go order, the AI decided it went against the higher mission of destroying the SAM, so it attacked the operator in simulation.
Then the system was taught to not kill the operator because that was bad, and it would lose points..
So, rather than kill the operator, the AI system destroyed the communication tower used by the operator to issue the no-go order.

There are descriptions of tapes by the same FBI that lied to us for years about Russiagate. Journalists have not been allowed to hear the tapes for themselves, which suggests that there has been some highly implausible interpretations of the conversation that even the trusted CNN would not swallow, going on here.

Meanwhile Joe Biden left classified documents in cardboard boxes where his crackhead foreign agent son had easy access to them, oh yeah, and at the Penn Center, Chinese nationals had access to them, and not the slightest whiff of interest by the FBI. Oh yeah, and Joe Biden's crackhead son managed to write remarkably coherent analyses of the political situation in foreign countries, which he sent out to paying clients, almost as if he had access to classified State Department documents...

Our legal system is a joke, and the FBI is the DNC's private gestapo. Who else is the DoJ going after? Why the Republican Senate Candidate in West Virginia who is leading Manchin in the polls by several lengths. Who would have thunk that Joe Biden would use his Department of Justice to keep Democrat hold on the Senate. Remember when they had Bob Menendez, D-NJ dead to rights on a statutory rape and child trafficking charge, then suddenly lost interest?

Remember when the DoJ not only killed investigations into the Clinton Foundation as soon as Biden took office, but destroyed all evidence gathered?

It's the "Just Us" Department.

Trump captured on tape talking about classified document he kept after leaving the White House

“Federal prosecutors have obtained an audio recording of a summer 2021 meeting in which former President Donald Trump acknowledges he held onto a classified Pentagon document about a potential attack on Iran, multiple sources told CNN, undercutting his argument that he declassified everything.

The recording indicates Trump understood he retained classified material after leaving the White House, according to multiple sources familiar with the investigation. On the recording, Trump’s comments suggest he would like to share the information but he’s aware of limitations on his ability post-presidency to declassify records, two of the sources said.

The revelation that the former president and commander-in-chief has been captured on tape discussing a classified document could raise his legal exposure as he continues his third bid for the White House. Trump has denied any wrongdoing.“

MadTownGuy said...

Seen on Instapundit, originally from Lawtence Person's Battleswarm blog:
No. And no.

"Former Vice President Mike Pence is evidently getting into the 2024 Presidential race next week.

So evidently is former New Jersey Chris Christie.

No. And no.

Both men had their time in the sun, and neither’s time extends to 2024. Pence’s was 2016, when he provided a dull, predictable counterweight to Trump’s wild ride. Christie’s was 2009-2010, when his unexpected election as governor of deep blue New Jersey gave him a high profile platform to criticize the Obama Administration’s many unpopular policy failures.

Neither has a prayer of beating Ron DeSantis or Donald Trump for the Republican nomination in 2024.

Pence combines the dynamic personal charisma of Jeb Bush with the national electoral chances of Jeb Bush.

Christie combines the personal likeability of J. Edgar Hoover with the weight of a second J. Edgar Hoover.

And Christie has no excuse running again, having already run a dismal 2016 campaign that earned him exactly zero delegates (one less than Carly Florina).

All these political coelacanths are going to do is prevent the anti-Trump vote from consolidating around DeSantis.

Both should give up on their quixotic campaigns and retire to the cushy corporate board and college President circuit.
"

Times like these almost make me wish the RNC would manage the crowd of contenders with the efficiency shown by the DNC. Almost, except for the DNC's undemocratic anointing of their chosen leader regardless of how the caucuses and primaries play out.

Inga, you believed everything the press and the Government told you about RUSSIA

They were lying to you.

Your source fails to differentiate between classified (Wholly under control of the President of the United States. Vs Defense intelligence information. Wholly under control of the Commander in Chief.

The mere actions of leaving the White House with any and all documents declassifies documents.
Or to put much more accurately. The Government of the United States lacks constitutional power to Challenge the claims of the outgoing President.
If you are any of your leftist friends have found such power in the constitution, they would be lying, because the Constuttution speaks only to powers of the Three branches. Secret Documents and Classification is an invention of the President of the United States.

Former Vice President Mike Pence will not be charged in the discovery of classified documents at his Indiana home.

"Back Home Again in Indiana" is the favorite song of Hoosiers but Mikey had to have obtained the documents while living at Number One Observatory Circle NW, Washington, D.C. inside the U.S Naval Observatory complex where Vice Presidents, good and bad, are housed.
