Pence's head-fake with a downright assault smirk is hopium to me.

The only US news channel airing in France on major "TV through internet" offers is CNN. Putting that on, I couldn't help but wince and eww every 10s or so.

I've been careful with my language too, saying "I've seen certain things", that "the rumor goes that...", how the dollar is bound to crash leading to a worldwide crisis if countries around the world lose faith in the dollar and that could happen this month.

Advising friends to "buy for about 15d of food" in case something happens, and if nothing happens then it's all good, but if something happens otherwise I don't want to be a deer in headlights, and neither do I want that for them.

I'd rather take the hopium than sink in the dooming. Hope is more than postponed disappointment.

POTUS said "stand back, stand down".

Do the smart thing.

Not necessarily. If there is a Deep State (there is) then what's to stop him from forming his new administration out of sight of those hacks while being publicly as close as possible to pretending to transmit power to a Biden administration?

He doesn't. He said as much at the recent wall speech.

Morgan Ortagus is Spokesperson of the Dept. of State since 2019.

I'm feet-deep in "all things Q", but my limited understanding would surmise "she isn't part of the plan."

Here's how I believe it would read if it was him:

Duncy Nancy wants to make me even more remembered as the only President to have been impeached TWICE! She will look desperate in the history books, impeaching me days before "leaving" office! SAD!

"Self-preservation is the most basic and fundamental natural right any individual possesses" - Judge M. Tyson

"Violence is not an evil, it is a tool both good and evil can use. Learn to use it, but put it at the back of the tool shed, and pray that your other tools never get exhausted. In case of exhaustion, you'll be thankful it's there rather than not." - Well, that's from me.

This comment neither condones unprovoked violence, aka assault, nor threats of violence.

Edit: I'm surprised this comment hasn't been "moderated", tbh.

Of course I don't want a "shit hole district with an Obama judge" to try these assholes.

I'm simply asking questions. I believe in the rationale that commiting a crime to obtain evidence is still commiting a crime, and I don't want criminals to be prosecuting as a matter of integrity.

Wouldn't any evidence on those stolen laptops be considered fruit of the poison tree?

In France, a private utility business becoming a monopoly is nationalized, meaning the state takes over. The rationale is that if everyone uses the service, then they are at the mercy of the service provider. It was the case for electricity, natural gas, phone lines and the postal system.

Social media require all users use the same one to connect together. It doesn't make sense for them to compete against each other and segregate users. They are by definition monopolies. By definition this leaves the users at the mercy of social media.

The various social media platforms have been shown to be colluding, or at least acting in a standalone complex: they want to control the narrative, and their narrative is globalism. And foreign countries don't want foreign interference.

Normies used to taking words at face value. "Trump's speech? Of course it was concession, I watched it."

People simplify the message and cannot fathom an alternative using the Socratic method. Sure he said there'd be a peaceful transition of power... never said to whom. Sure he said he's pursued every constitutional and legal avenues... never said it's over. Sure he said he's not attending the inauguration... never said if there'd be an inauguration to begin with.

There is a reality where the electoral process gets upended right at the very end and they aren't seeing it. They are used to the status quo: "we have always had a new president inaugurated by the end of January." Hence the doom&gloom.

A conviction for murder necessitates a victim, i.e. the crime has been carried out.

I speculate a conviction for treason necessitates the crime being carried out too.

I must say I'm getting persuaded real hard real fast. Maybe it's just my bias, or me just grasping at a ray of hope amid these troubled times, or it's all real. Either way, hope is more than postponed disappointment.

I'll continue lurking. Carry on.

Let's be cautiously optimistic: hoping for the best and expecting nothing. I think that's the best attitude to hold here.
