Whither? Nope. It just gets worse from here. Empires don't recover only get worse 'till collapse. This is why we moved out. Swore I'd never move again after I retired then BLM/covid/2020 happened. Now on cusp of nuclear armageddon so obviously you don't want to be in a country involved with that. If nuclear winter is real they may get us in South America but in general we pose no threat so are not a target.

Soldo has excerpts this morning from an interview with an AfD member who is down, but not out. He seems hopeful that we can still fight for the reality of a nation state in a multipolar world.

Quo Vadis. The question of the ages.

what is drastically apparent is that the Democratic party and Republican party have failed America. This has been an evolutionary process over the last 30 years for sure.

Question : if Joe Biden is not fit to be the Dem candidate then how in the hell is he fit to be president and have control over one of the largest nuclear arsenals on the face of the Earth?

The logic here is impeccable...the answer, of course,

he is not.

It really is time for someone else to replace the two parties. Because what we have now is not working ....

and if past performance is any prediction of future action it is only going to get worse.

The logic is, indeed, impeccable. And it's a case that Trump can make. I quote Michael Tracy to exactly the same effect in the new post.

Once the media starts to realize that they're not going to get Biden out of the race, they're all going to quickly retreat from the past 24 hours and get back on board.

Obama is directing them to do that and giving them the script to use: [just a bad night]

How will the Israeli war lobby push in their candidate? Or is Trump their guy all along.

If Trump sweeps all aside with nary a contest, I’ll be stocking up on iodine pills.

If the deep state pulls shenanigans to hold power then I’ll rest a little easier.

A Great Awakening and an even greater disillusionment.

I thank God for the patriots, including you, and the commenters here, for standing up to it. I admit I get disgusted and sometimes I want to throw in the towel and quit.

I was a True Believer since 1976, when I was 14, and especially at age 18, when I proudly cast my vote for Ronald Reagan.

The more I think about it, I'll be voting against Joe Biden. Yes, Trump will get my vote, but only because I'm voting against Biden. As I said in an earlier post, I'm tired of Trump.

I’m tired of Trump too. I should’ve added that in my reply, but the post really was about Biden and the Dems. I was very disappointed when it appears as if Trump has not learned a single thing since 2020. And or his campaign managers, if you can call them managers, are as dimwitted as, I’m not sure how to describe them. I could go on, but I think I’ve said enough.

I'm quickly moving in your direction regarding Trump.

I agree it sounds like he hasn't learned a single thing and his campaign manages aren't very smart.

The Reps need to step up their game. I have zero confidence in either party, except to constantly disappoint me. (Well, the Reps. I never expect anything out of the Dems and they never let me down.)

He sounds a lot more like a typical politician than he did eight, or even four, years ago.

There are very few politicians I admire anymore. For a while, he was one of them.

Well it's obvious now that Zhou the potted plant is not and never was running the country.

It's a cabal of Demo-Rats in cahoots with some paid off RINOS and Deep Staters.

And replacing Zhou with a newer shinier Demo-Rat won't change one single policy. Newsome, the witch from Mich. we'll get the same crap, open borders, printing money (aka: inflation Weimar Republic style) but are Dem voters (the sheeple) smart enough to to figure that out?

I doubt it. But they got this weeks marching orders.....PANIC! Panic now! ( so we can swap out Zhou for someone who can fool the sheeple for 4 more years.

Election day: Let me see... do I prefer Tweedledumb or Tweedledumber?? Two hollow, alleged human beings. And if the bus does, hopefully, run over Biden, the replacement will just be more of the Zionist butt-kissing sameness. Sorry US, there is not even a glimmer of hope on the horizon. How the mighty are falling, falling, ..... fallen.

The campaign to reelect Biden has fundraised no small amount of money — it has $195 million on hand as of the last time campaign funds were reported. Despite the poor performance, Biden’s campaign is reporting it raised $14 million through online fundraising the night of the debate and the following morning.

Still, if Biden does in fact drop out of the race, the money can only be transferred to one woman: Vice President Kamala Harris. Campaign finance laws do not allow for just anyone nominated by a party to receive funds that were not directly donated to them.

Because Harris is on the ticket, however, she would be the only one who could replace Biden while keeping the pot of cash. This is because the funds were already at Harris’s disposal as she is currently on the ticket.

What I am hearing regarding Joe Biden. Ron Klain and Barack Obama are having a sit down with the President today. Jill Biden is insistent that Joe runs. Kamala is furious that she is not being considered as a replacement (Whitmer and Newsom are). Interestingly my neighbor in…

I saw a report that Kama Sutra is angry that she's being openly passed over in the speculation. Bad news for Dems.

As I understand it, they would need Kamala's assent and active participation to remove Joe under the 25th. Seems she might put some conditions of benefit to her personally around that.

If the 25th was applied successfully, Kamala would become ACTING President only while retaining her title as VP. So no VP minder would be there for her. The 25th seems to be primarily intended to mitigate temporary disabilities. The only way she would become President in fact would be if Biden resigned; then Congress would have to agree on the new VP. At least that is what I understand. In any case, a real mess for the Dems.

Any way you slice it, this is a mess. Which is good. The latest is that fund raisers are POed because Jill assured them Zhou was "ready to go".

Remember the meme (or red herring) “until the November elections?” for Zhou to be perceived as a strong protective valiant war president (ie turn two, even three, ever-escalating dumpster fires into some kind of moral victory). Well last night just gave (predictably) the lie to all that and maybe even more…the Dems: the hoax party. “If we make it through August…”

A lot I agree with in this piece, but not all. I agree that this has been planned for a long time. A plan to throw Biden under the bus. But I am not so sure they have a solid second-down play. (They certainly haven't had one in Ukraine, Israel, nor with keeping China-Russia at odds.) The Neocons pulling the strings are amateurs; and they were on full display last night. If you think 2024 has been a bit out of control so far, I don't think we have seen anything yet. Thanks for all your updates

But amid the Democrats’ rending of garments and gnashing of teeth, an important point has gone largely unnoticed: America essentially has no president right now. Whomever is calling the shots in the White House, especially on foreign affairs, it isn’t Biden. While it’s true that much of American governance has devolved into the hands of an unelected (and unaccountable) administrative bureaucracy, when it comes to foreign policy and decisions about how to respond to crises overseas, the president still plays an important and arguably indispensable role.

But our current president, as the entire world now knows, cannot follow the train of his own thoughts. He seems to have only a tenuous grasp on reality. He can barely walk down a few steps. Clearly, he’s not the one in charge of the White House, which means the presidency itself is remarkably weak right now.

Mark,

After what you've exposed over these past few weeks, the President has never been the one calling the shots. You may as well have BiBi replace Biden. 🤣

Biden could not run a lemonade stand. In all seriousness. Imagine a complex scenario with 3 flavors, 2 cup sizes, and cash-only transactions requiring proper disbursement of change. No way.

Considering that Biden has demonstrating to the world how intelligent he is, with great enthusiasm & smiles at a press conference not long ago before the SMO, admitting how corrupt he really was, done without any hesitancy he exclaimed how he told (black mailed) the Ukraine president Petro Poroshenko which was confirmed In the leaked telephone conversation.

That the President Joe Biden spoke with Petro Poroshenko, who was the President of Ukraine at the time. he admitted boastfully that he told Poroshenko to fire the country's top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, (who had an excellent international reputation especially against corruption) who was investigating Burisma Holdings, an energy company where Biden's son, Hunter Biden, served on the board. Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion in U.S. aid if Poroshenko did not remove Shokin from his position.

At the time Hunter with zero attributes, qualifications or experience had somehow secured such a lucrative position of employ being paid such a sum which equated exactly to one-million-dollar payment, an annual salary, broken down to 12 monthly instillments of $83K/M. Biden what a absolute crook but thick as ...........I find it unbelievable that so many dumb Americans actually support this crook though definitely not 81 million.
