The die is cast. The best defense he has now is staying on the offensive and continuing to dry up the enemy funds. They can try to kill him, but they don't have their shield of plausible deniability without slush funds.
Call me optimistic, but I don't think they bother. Obama and Michael are done. The rumors surrounding their separation are a death knell for Michelle ever entering politics. Obama has literally nothing else he can do. He rallied all he could and the Democrats stabbed him in the back by backing Kamala. Remember, Obama was the first person who decried Kamala, saying she couldn't win. As long as they don't go after him personally, Obama will probably just go away outside of a few rallies. Same with Clinton, she's old. She has nothing left to fight for. There's nothing she can do. If they try to put her in jail, she might not leave to see even half her sentence served. The most Hillary can do is point existing Democrats where to focus on. That's about it. The Democrats though aren't helping themselves. They're shooting themselves in the foot before midterms.

The old guard is dead. They've run their course and everyone knows it. It's only a matter time before a complete Democrat party collapse. It's already internally collapsing. All they can hope for is to find new RINO plants for the midterms. But if Trump's first two years keep up at this pace? I don't see them having any chance. The best thing the Democrats can do is take the next decade to remake the party, find new leaders, and completely reform. And the answer is not Newsom. Maybe he can be your next Chuck Schumer, but that's as far as he'll ever go. The answer ain't David Hogg either. The guy reeks and nobody ever forgot. He lives in meme culture as the biggest fraud and swamp creature.
 
In nature, if you see an ape that is alone you don't assume it was cruelly cast out from its social group for no reason. We don't think of it as the poor victim of bullying. We acknowledge the lone ape is antisocial and potentially dangerous and we keep our distance.
Some bullying is definitely for a reason (and I think most kids experience both being a bully and getting bullied themselves at some point in their childhood) but there are also cases where kids tend to bully a kid who has some sort of disorder who makes them seem too different. They aren't dangerous, they are just badly socialised, they might have mild autism/dyslexia that makes kids assume they are stupid or maybe they are even just highly intelligent and haven't learned how to fit in with their peers. But kids do instinctually tend to ostracise/mock anyone off-putting or annoying.

It's not necessarily always a bad thing, the smart kids need to learn that there's a time and place to sperg about whatever shit they are interested in and it's almost never to a bunch of normies that may never understand what you're going on about. A bit of bullying and being mocked can be how a kid learns to adapt their conversation to the people they are with. But I don't think it helped the kids who were just struggling with things most people found easy and I feel bad about being mean to some of those kids in my class. Much worse than I do about any time I might have had 'bullying' directed at me.
 
I know many people wish he actually was Hitler, but while his policy differs, they are both great men of character cut from similar cloth, that will be remembered for thousands of years to come.
No one except the most braindead troglodytes wants Trump to be Hitler seriously. Hitler betrayed everyone he had agreements with, what little character he had died after WW1.

it was the funniest shit to see them bitching over pronouns
 
Kurt is forcing his chat to watch the full unedited CBS Kamala Harris interview.

She's so fucking empty.
Kill DMCA niggers. Behead DMCA niggers. Roundhouse kick a DMCA nigger into the concrete. Slam dunk a DMCA nigger's baby into the trashcan. Crucify filthy lawyers. Defecate in a DMCA niggers food. Launch DMCA niggers into the sun. Stir fry DMCA niggers in a wok. Toss DMCA niggers into active volcanoes.
 
but if Napoleon was the beginning of the end for glorious war, WWI puts it entirely to rest. This is symbolic of many ways in which modern society could not accommodate a Teddy Roosevelt, he simply would not fit into our times. It's unbearably sad and completely inevitable.
Sounds like Teddy missed the memo on the absolute shitshow that was the 30 years war. So much pointless death and chaos. He should have particularly learned from the example of Gustav Adolphus who, despite being an absolute chad, fucked up his last campaign by dying in a cavalry charge which he elected to lead. Also his son and successor getting shot in the head during a siege by a random bullet. Seeing glory in war is a coping mechanism. At best it is a grim task and at worst it is rape, murder, and plunder, and at it's stupidest it's WW1.

I just remember all the rainbows people were giving out last year. About how the Democrat party will fail, under its own incompetence and how Tump could never take them out. Now we are discussing how their only way back in to any sort of electable state is to basically gut their entire party. It is rather funny.
David Hogg the man who grandstands on dead children to counter any point against him and has the magic ability to horrify anyone he talks too. Newscum, a man so out of touch and unfocused, his golden goose city burns the fuck down around him and he is more concerned about calling the US president Hitler.
Obama/Shillary Almost dead wanabe kingmakers who the modern democrat does not even know who they are.
Then it comes to their batshit policy's. Imagine talking about trannys in women's sports and bathrooms and abortions during a time where people are paying out 300% more for food.

I want the USDOT to crack down on the size of truck and headlights. Its absurd how big and tall they are getting with 1 million watt LED lights being OEM.
I find Teslas have some of the worst LED lights and basically all cars are blindingly terrible now.
 
Try this link (FCC actually doing something good for a change):

Does this need a local archive or are we good? I'm only thinking that CBS has already shown that they'll DFE at the earliest opportunity...you know, because they're faggots and can't handle criticism.

This is probably the biggest redpill I've taken in my nearly 5 years on KF. Very rarely is someone hated only for being "different".

It also makes me question a large chunk of what we've been told about history, that our ancestors in the benighted Before Times were all moronic, sadistic, supersitious buffoons. C.S. Lewis once called this "chronological snobbery", and it's a pillar of the Current Year fallacy.

My great uncle was KIA in the Battle of the Bulge. His brother, MeatGramps, survived getting zipped by a Nork in Korea.

Thanks in part to them, Jews were spared the ovens and Koreans were spared the gulags.

But some smug, shit-eating Redditor or professor will still look me in the eye and say, "your ancestors were villains", because....people not even related to me who died 200 years owned slaves.

"The chance of them getting their nuclear weapons back is somewhere between slim and none," retired Lt. General Keith Kellogg, special envoy to Ukraine and Russia, told Fox News Digital. "Let's be honest about it, we both know that's not going to happen." "Remember, the president said we're a government of common sense," he said. "When somebody says something like that, look at the outcome or the potential. That's using your common sense."
Kellogg wouldn’t comment on where Trump lands when it comes to backing either Ukraine with a membership in the security alliance or Russia in denying its southern neighbor access to the top coalition. "That’s one of the reasons I’m going next week to Europe, to actually see them face-to-face," he said. "I can bring that back to the president and say, ‘OK, Mr. President, this is their concern. This is what the issues are.’" Kellogg is set to travel to the Munich Security Conference, which runs Feb. 14-16, where he said he will meet with world leaders to discuss Russia’s war in Ukraine and get a better idea of where nations like the U.K., Germany and Denmark, along with other top providers of military aid to Ukraine, stand on negotiations to end the war.
"As you develop the plans to end this carnage, you have to make sure that you've got the feel of everybody in play," Kellogg said. "Once we get to have these face-to-face discussions, then you can really kind of work … on concessions."
 
>80% of Americans don't want transgender people in women's sports; according to CNN

The crazy floor is usually around 28% in my experience. No matter how crazy an idea is or unpopular a politician is, you can usually get at least 28% support from pure "sports team" style political engagement where hardcore partisans support whatever their side says. They've cratered beneath that.

It’s all a pendulum. Trump has his work cut out for him, so he doesn’t need to worry about running out of road, but eventually we’ll be back feeling repressed and some degenerates will be mad about how rare street walking hookers have become, and conservatism will be the enemy again.

It’s just for now, we’ve gone way too far and near infinite artifices have been employed to extend the cultural elasticity because the left was naive enough to believe they could create a new, entirely fiat center through the power of the Overton Window.

But to think we’ve reached some permanent equilibrium is crazy. Equilibrium is an abstract thing that only appears to exist in nature because we don’t live long enough to observe things like the decay of planetary orbits. The sun is constantly ejecting it’s mass as energy, and earth is constantly accumulating meteoritic iron, so the relative gravities are constantly changing and there’s no force in the universe to stabilize things longer than they were designed to remain stable
 
Yet another program we can look back and thank Teddy for. Hands-down one of the greatest if not the greatest in our nation's history. He put every aspect of the country first; its people, and its natural beauty. You also have him to thank for your local Conservation Corps. Those random tree planters lining your sidewalks and parking lots? Teddy.

I don't know exactly which presidents Trump has taken inspiration from, but I hope Roosevelt was one of them. When it comes to his immigration and foreign policy I'm reminded a great deal of what I had read of him. If you're going to be here, you put us first and make us the best on the planet.

Hell, Trump was even shot on stage like Teddy
Teddy immigration policy was basically "You come here and then burn the ships afterwards" which worked out pretty well when it was all Euro's coming over. I don't know how you can recreate that in the modern world expect do massive remittances tax and make English the official language of the country (I want to do both and more).
