Well, that ends me needing to watch the thing.
Right, all the events today combined paint a clear picture. Absolute desperation.
1: Chipman being out indicates a total fallout in congress. Not even blaming Manchin, no this was more. This was a hard split in both the house and senate, if it were pinnable on one person then they would. I said before the civil war in the Admin would affect congress, it officially has. This paired alongside the clear attempt to fortify one of the cabal factions indicates the Civil War is no longer preparatory, it's now actively being fought. Again, I said this would occur after Afghanistan, though I admit this is on a faster timetable than I expected. I thought it'd occur after September 11th, so it's a couple of days early.
2: Soros is a main funder of the DNCs, Pelosi personally going to him is very clearly a move to gain funding and support going into the midterms. If they are directly appealing to him, and what is more with what amounts to the only actual Democrat power they have, it means desperation. Means their info for the midterms is -bad-, apocalyptically bad. Soros is a boogyman, the fact she met with him will spread, it's damaging and drives opposition turnout. They would not have been this blatant with it save for the absolute desperation.
3: Kamala supporting Mexico is entirely a bone to the progressives. Same vein as the DOA banking stuff for the Businessmen faction. Shows they are spreading out, trying to reign in the factions. Alongside Chipman going down, this is further proof the civil war is now being openly fought. The Admin publically currying support is interesting. it means they are trying to schmooze the factions. They don't need to do this if the factions still support them.
4: Finally the mandate, the big gun. A BIG lean toward the Establishment faction and doomed to fail. It will be challenged and put everything they have done at risk. It's also an order they know will not be carried out. It's inviting opposition. This doesn't have a purpose on its face. It only works to shore up a falling out.
In short, the evidence across the last few days and especially today says that the hot war is now being openly fought, all the cabal factions have broken with the Admin, and Pelosi is desperately doing a rather literal kow tow to Soros to defend against the midterms. This was the worst-case scenario for the Democrats.
