This is true, but in the modern age many forget that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. The tree of freedom must be watered with the blood of patriots and no one's interested in being the gardener these days. Doing unreasonable things to tamp down on tyrants was explicitly in the American social contract, but people are now so convinced that there will be a tyrant either way that they want to avoid all of that icky fighting and get directly to the part where their guy gives directives from on high and deletes their opposition for them.

Vigilance was surrendered under mass panic, focus on a greater enemy, or grumbling that things can be reversed later - which is probably the worst attribute of democracy: it disarms people by virtue of (supposedly) bringing change with the election of a new leader or party. America hasn't actually experienced a ton of bloody rebellion and unrest outside of localised events due to how disarming the hope of change can be, never mind if you combine "hope" with "contentment", then any reaction involving action is furthest from most people's minds. This'll either lead to nothing ever happening and perpetual decline, or just keep building the pressure until the explosive reaction is far worse than anyone could've conceived of (or it'll just happen so suddenly nobody could've foreseen exactly when it would happen and why/how it would happen).

Loomer is a lunatic. She doesn't have a single opinion or thought outside of what gets her the most attention, and occasionally will just tard out because she's so crazy.
She's openly been this way for over a decade now, and the fact that she is seen as some actual political influencer on the Right, much less one that has/had direct access to the President, is the single biggest showcase of Jewish nepotism on this cursed, nightmarish planet.

"In the coming days, you’ll see weapons flowing at a record level to help Ukraine defend themselves... One of the biggest miscalculations Putin has made is to play Trump. And you just watch, in the coming days and weeks, there’s going to be a massive effort to get Putin to the table."


Ladybug Graham thinks the war is about to ramp up in Slavland.

MAGA is now targetting the Lynch pin state of Virginia.

Its really fascinating to see how Virginia in particular swings given the historical context of the state. Its one of the largest by population and GDP on the East coast, it borders the federal capital and is fraught with historical significance given its unique position as the mother state. Needless to say, the fights for control of Virginia have been brutal throughout US History, and during the Civil War the fight for Virginia killed tens of thousands of Americans.

The new generation of Republicans are targeting the state hard. Also as a weird historical aside, Virginia has its elections on off years because they hold them every 4 years, starting from the first colonial election in 1619. Which means they are completely off kilter from the US Federal Elections that occur every 4 years starting in 1788.

So Virginia's elections are often latched onto as a bellwether in the odd year for the upcoming even year election of the Federal Government.

Luckily for Virginia, Trump fired a ton of Democrat voters who will likely have to leave the state to find a new job.

Well too little and too fucking late cause the VA GOP IS A MESS.

Some back story: In 2021 a dude created the Virginia Project PAC that basically had a couple of simple rules:
1. Run a Republican in very single seat possible, no matter how long the odds
2. Rule Lawyer the fuck out of every single election law to stop election fraud.

With Youngkin focusing on parents rights and being a likeable guy the Republicans actually won the state. Instead of leaning harder into what won they instead went straight back to being old money "Fuck the new Trump people" and started listening to consultants (that get paid whether they win or loose). Youngkin never went hard for school/parents rights and instead blew his political capitual on trying to get the Redskins Stadium in DC (which failed). Since they then the VA GOP has suffered lost after lost (and at one point almost lost a seat to a nurse that got caught doing porn) in every single state election.

Now for 2025 the VA GOP did not even run a primary and instead annotated the black women Lt Gov Winsome Sears who has not really done anything as the Lt Gov (and is a Never Trumper). Right now her campaigns has hardly done any ad and even if there is any ads/communication it always opens up with "As a black women...". Its so bad people are starting to assume the VA GOP is throwing the election for the CIA Spook.

Every time someone who's only identity is Free Palestine does something, it's the most destructive and retarded actions imaginable. I can only assume they're secretly being given orders by Jews who are, without their knowledge, treating them like real life Impractical Jokers.
