I remember Bannon singing her praises and calling her glorious ACB when she was being appointed. I quit listening to him, I wonder what he’s saying about her now?

Probably afraid that seeing the flag will make people feel more patriotic and conservative.

I sincerely hope the Administration does not comply.

I wonder if the French authorities will try to sanction the RN for this event? This might be hard for Americans to believe, but it’s illegal to display the French flag or its colors at political campaign events. It was hard for me to believe when a French person told me that.

Makes me want to watch Jurassic Park to hear all of Ian Malcolm’s warnings on bringing back long extinct creatures. Here’s the one that immediately came to mind, I did a little paraphrasing:

this isn’t some species that’s been obliterated by deforestation or the building of a dam; the dire wolf had their shot and nature selected them for extinction.

She was raped covering the so-called Arab Spring.

I’ve been thinking a lot about all those politicians who preached free trade and knew our biggest trading partners were taking advantage of us.

The best analogy I could come up with is you let your neighbor beat on you daily and you never fight back or press charges. That’s an analogy even Rand Paul should understand.

I agree, they gouge whenever the opportunity presents itself and suppliers of necessities are the worst offenders. Suppliers of discretionary items can try, but it will hurt their sales.

Admittedly the lines between necessities and luxuries is very blurry anymore. My grandparents believed a landline telephone was a luxury. Today people behave like the next smartphone release is a necessity.

If it’s already happening then businesses are price gouging. It’s next to impossible anything currently in stock already has a the cost of tariffs in its price.

It’s important to realize Bill Clinton was a product the Walton family packaged and sold to Americans for exactly that purpose.

I worked for a company that supplied American manufacturers who sold to Walmart. As soon as Clinton made that decision Walmart started relentlessly beating on those American companies to match Chinese prices knowing full well they couldn’t.

I watched a lot of our customers go out of business. Some of the brands survived by dealing with China, but the damage to American communities was devastating. And, the absolute irony was how many of those long term unemployed people stuck with Clinton and the Dems.

Which was a very long time ago for me.

Sounds like Ackman is a guy staring into a precipice.

There is a price level most consumers won’t pay. Without a doubt most of these big conglomerates put a lot of effort into knowing that price. If they try to pass the tariffs onto consumers it will likely result in a precipitous drop in demand.

This is why they’re so pissed off, they know they will have to absorb these tariffs, not consumers. That is why Range Rover decided to not export cars to the United States, they are unwilling to absorb the tariff to maintain a price that maintains demand levels.

The way these people are acting it makes me think the asymmetric tariff scheme is the keystone that holds the globalist power structure together.

I’m not an Ayn Rand expert. But, I think a John Galt like character decided he didn’t like the idea of a secluded Galt’s Gulch and decided it was better to move into a place referred to as 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

There is one thing worse than no prosecutions, especially for the pedos. What would be worse is having the corrupt judicial system deliver acquittals to these sick bastards.

Until the judiciary is fully exposed and cleansed, it’s too risky to prosecute in civilian courts. And, the only way to move these cases to military tribunals is show the civilian courts aren’t functioning. I’m hoping that’s part of the play with getting these DS judges to issue unconstitutional nationwide injunctions.

I use my family’s daily group text as a barometer of whether something is gaining traction with average people.

The group has varying political affiliations from one person who still believes the Dems are the party if JFK. This person also has a bad case of TDS. Others recently walked away from the Dem Party. And, on the conservative end of the spectrum is me.

Bottom line, no one in this large group is talking about these “protests” taking place. And, our TDS sufferer would typically want to make a big deal out of something like this.

Agree. Like any war there is an end to the active hostilities followed by mopping up operations. Even, if it’s evident the Cabal has fallen this year, there is going to be a period of time where the final pockets of resistance are rooted out.

Great questions. If the timeline in post 3387 is six years to the date it was posted then somehow things need to get wrapped up by mid July. If it is figurative then it should be the end of the year.

Has anyone ever generated a list of objectives that define success and are clearly tied to a drop? That’s really the only way to say success has been achieved.

All, I have is my gut feeling and I think everyone will have some complaints with the way this ends. Even if it’s abundantly clear the Cabal no longer exists and it’s abundantly clear we’ve entered a Golden Age. Probably the biggest complaint will be that there wasn’t enough public prosecutions.

And, I think I’m with you about the midterms being the best barometer. If we enter 2026 without fixing our corrupt election systems, then I’ll be kicking myself for the time I’ve spent on all of this.

I like how Victor Davis Hanson broke this down. I know he doesn’t explicitly say it, but if you are a person or organization melting down over Reciprocal Tariffs, there is a high probability you’re a DS tool.

They don’t fear that he is right, they know he’s right. What they fear is he will have time to show the masses they have been defrauded for decades.

They fear being exposed for pretending to champion free trade, when in reality, they were participating in rigging the system to transfer wealth to other countries.

As someone who doesn’t follow any of these people, does Brian Cates have a sarcastic sense of humor? Or, is laughing at his post an inappropriate reaction?

The reality is Owens, and many others, are the modern equivalent of tabloids. They make their living saying sensational things. And, no matter how well things might be going, they will find reasons to hate it because their revenue depends on always being dissatisfied.

People like her come and go. Sometimes they get exposed as actually working for the opposition. The extreme things they say are done to make their audience look bad and to steer their audience away from deeper, uncomfortable truths.

I’ll finish by saying I’m always skeptical of people who seem to come out of nowhere and she is one of them. If I’m not mistaken it wasn’t that long ago she worked for, or owned, an anti-Trump website.

President not PM.
