    The psychology of having China beat us back to the Moon might be all about us being up our own asses but it is still good to prove you can dunk on little brother before he (AND EVERYONE ELSE) decides you don't matter anymore.

    Jan 6 happened. Trump is actively trying to nationalize the elections. I think we have ample reason to fear he will do illegal things to stay in power. I agree taking stock of our fears is counter productive sometimes but risk assessment both negative risk (the crap that can go wrong) and positive risk (the risk of what you give up if you do not act) must be assessed equally.

    While this falls in the relatively innocuous “world politics” bin… The fallout from this is very cross-cutting.

    The things this will unlock! Now I gather that other countries that have Putinist leadership can still step in and block the EU's attempts to fund Ukraine. But, the entire MAGA, Tucker Carlson, Groyper, anti-Semitic, Christian Nationalist weltanschaung took a serious body blow today.

    When you have record turnout like that...you have to think its can't be good for Orban. If he tries to stay, he will be thrown out by the mob.

    Nixon leveraged the "mad bomber" thing pretty well to get out of Vietnam but had Kissinger doing his cold calculating thing to manipulate the rift between the PRC and Soviets. Meanwhile, the people who have grifted and grifted and diddled and diddled do not have a move to make because nobody fears TACO.

    What is awful is the really gross behavior of her ex-husband toward her (having ICE detain her) did not result in dot connecting by any reporters. Wait, it probably did. What happened was it didn't result in any news organizations willing to put that dot connection out in a form the general public could understand.
