Just turned on overstrike mode on my Windows development machine and could not turn it off.

I hate overstrike, never use it and so I have the key mapped to stop accidentally turning it on. But on occasion...

What? A drunk as SECDEF, a Russian spy as DNI?

Nice, are you making these? AI or hard work?

If so, there is much more Iranian command and control infrastructure operating than we are being told.

Putin really is a piece of work, gets his poodle Trump to start a war with Iran to close the straits so sanctions are suspended and he can sell his oil. Then helps Iran attack US positions.

Perpetrated by a guy I knew online. He used to come into the soc.culture.british group to berate us for not allowing people to have guns. Typical NRA ammosexual.

Yeah, demoted. Trump can't fire her because she knows what is in the Epstein files and that could destroy him.

I doubt it. Trump prefers to ignore unpleasant facts. Nobody gets fired for incompetence in Trumpland, only for disloyalty to the rapist.

Noem was fired for admitting Trump approved the corrupt $120 million Lewandowski contract.

Nah, after repossessing his house, it becomes Mar-Obama-Largo.

Why aren't these acts of terrorism called out for what they are?

So now we find out why Putin told Trump to order the strike. He gets to sell his oil and he gets a much higher price.

We are going to tear down the Epstein Wing AND MAKE TRUMP PAY FOR IT!

Kristi Noem is in trouble,

Her scandals just keep on the double,

She shot her dog,

Even her boss is agog,

Now she has more time for her throuple.

Not going back until they reinstate the DEI policies and apologize for bending the knee to the fascist.

Oh and now the head of DHS has been fired for mentioning that Trump wet his beak on that corrupt Lewandowski contract.

Meanwhile the Director of the FBI always looks like he just watched 2 girls, one cup and can't get it out of his head.

It was Tillis launching into her that finished her off and the murder of the protesters was probably a big reason he did that.

He deliberately goaded her into implicating Trump in the contract corruption knowing Trump would have insisted on wetting his beak.

Trump wants many things, doesn't mean he has the slightest chance of getting them.

Thing about the Senate is that it usually approves an administration's first pick for a cabinet position but is much more likely to dig their heels in on a second.

Very likely DHS is running without either funding or a Secretary of State until after the mid-terms while the country is at war.

Ohhhhh, veeeeery interesting.

Just took a look at the Paramount bonds which are graded BB-, the absolute lowest investment grade. Wall Street is seeing a major default risk.

If the bond rating drops any further, they are no longer investment grade, institutions are forced to sell, deal is off.

But they did approve it when they refused to stop it.

They are also going to have to vote for the bills to fund it.

And the war is going to last until Trump and Vance leave office.

Weeks not months?

Trump's war is going to last until Trump and Vance leave office. Unless both of impeached, the war is going to last years.

It is going to go very badly for the US because the President is senile, the SECDEF a drunk, the DNI a Russian agent and every appointee utterly incompetent.

Shippers might decide to sail ships currently docked in Qatar through the straits rather than risk being stranded there for a war pretty much certain to last till Trump and Vance leave office.

Sailing the other way would be utterly stupid.

Yeah, there is no escalation possible after murdering the head of the regime in a perfidious unannounced Pearl Harbor strike during peace negotiations.

The war is going to last until Trump and Vance leave office. Any empty tanker sailing through the straits to Qatar risks being stranded for three years. So, nobody is going to do that.

Taking a tanker currently docked in Qatar out is much more attractive, that might happen but not in a US convoy.

The get really angry when people point out likely Iranian responses. Of course, Iran is going to try to assassinate Trump, Vance and members of their cabinet. But no, no, they wouldn't dare out of fear of US retaliation.

The fascists have already destroyed CBS news, have just bought CNN and are desperately offended by any publication that calls out their anti-woke agenda as the fascist hatemongering it is.

That particular misery occured back before USB sticks were the go-to. These days I keep a tray of USB sticks handy and I use Linux as infrequently as possible.

This would also explain the rather remarkable fact that Dershowitz has remained outside the Trump circle despite being the most faithful of supporters. Trump knows that with Dershowitz it is always Israel first, last and always.

Putin doesn't need to have the videos of Trump raping kids at Epstein's place; all he needs is for Trump to think he has them.

Trump likely fears Israel and Saud know about his pedophile rapes because he knows Dershowitz, Bin Sulayem etc. etc. likely told their governments Trump is a rapist.

Thing with Epstein is that he was so fucking obvious that I am pretty sure many intelligence agencies worked out what he was up to and started taking note of the men in his social circle.

Once Maria Butina was caught identifying the rapey men in the NRA cocktail parties who might be inclined towards pedophile rape, it was logical to look for the people who were working at the deeper levels in the recruitment funnel.
