- 51Posted by rhfinle 1 day, 23 hours ago to The USA is all that is standing against World GovernanceDon't forget, though, the consortium of China, the WHO and the liberal American medical industry, including Fauci and the CDC, who tried to take over the world about 5 years ago, when the "Wuhan Flu" reared it's ugly head.
- 52Posted by rhfinle 1 day, 23 hours ago to The USA is all that is standing against World GovernanceMy thoughts too. Considering the current political climate, Reagan and Gorbachev are weeping in their graves. The US Republicans don't ~trust~ Russia, because of old Soviet-era animosities, but the US Democrats LOATHE Russia, because Russia demonstrated, convincingly, that Communism is not viable in the long term, and that doesn't jibe with their political philosophies. It's sad to see that we may never really get along with the one large European country that was once an ally of ours and has never actually attacked us, the way Britain did, a couple of hundred years ago. Mind you, I love England, Ireland and Scotland, and have friends and family there, and we speak the same language, mostly, even if they ~do~ drive on the wrong side of the road...
- 53Posted by CTYankee44 1 day, 23 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 10/13/25 EDITION: Not JUST another shutdownThe list reveals ~ 4,000 non-essential government employees RIFed. That's a great start. But in the scheme of things, how much money is that? Even at $75k/year that's only a mere $300million in annual salary savings. Against a debt of >$30trillion, that less than 0.0001% or $10/million Sure, I'll take it, happily. Because it's pure waste. But it's the programs that are the real source of evil spending.
So I have to ask, are the programs that these 4,000 workers were there to staff also being cut? If so then the real benefit to taxpayers is the number the administration should be crowing about. Not the 4,000 Useful Idiots the Left are going to parade as martyrs. - 54Posted by freedomforall 1 day, 23 hours ago to A better Vaxxed Movie Hit👍👍👍 Thank you, CapnK.
- 55Posted by CaptainKirk 1 day, 23 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 10/13/25 EDITION: Not JUST another shutdownI LOVE that Trump may use this to permanently CUT (RIF) govt employees. he should.
He should also furlough the Federal Judges. So there is no chance they have the time to fight the firings!
Excellent Memes. Keep them coming... - 56Posted by CaptainKirk 1 day, 23 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line Logic@straightlinelogic I've read many of your replies below.
First, you remind me of my wife. Everything Trump does that is NOT PERFECTION is "Simply Proof of X".
Sorry, the real world doesn't work this way. Fort Knox. The gold might be missing. If he was told it was, and he knew that LETTING THAT OUT would basically destroy the economy and the faith people have in the system...
Then I AGREE 100% he should keep that to himself.
Next, please pay attention. First you SOFTEN the target. Then you attack.
Vaccines may NOT be THE cause of Autism.
But you first soften the target by pointing out that MAYBE some things (Tylenol) are LINKED in ways NOBODY discussed before. Discover how the opposition will attack.
Then add your new findings:
https://www.aninconvenientstudy.com/?...
Then show that people are afraid to publish good studies that show Vaccines are LINKED to MANY of our health problems, where unvaccinated children are simply healthier.
This is how you change peoples minds. You grab the POTENTIAL believers and pull them in, get them to ask logical questions. GIVE them info they never had (No Vaccines have been Placebo Controlled Studied??? The one was studied for 5 days, without a control group... WTF?)
Then you BUILD that coalition by giving THESE people room to talk.
Trump has broken reality (Scott Adams Assessment). He proved we had 1 movie with 2 screens. It explains how the left views "Dead Naming" as worse the physical Violence and deserving of physically attacking someone.
With the left. It's dog whistles all the way down.
But KNOW this. The left and the right are CONSTRUCTS used to treat us like rats in cages, so we are more easily manipulated.
Trump is the SINGLE BEST POTUS of my life. I would have crawled over broken glass to vote for him. And I would gladly DIE to keep him in office for all of his term. I believe he is that positive to our futures.
And no. I do NOT agree with him 100% and I think he is too helpful to Israel, and is a bit surrounded by Zionists. I don't need perfection. I need the first president EVER to take the slings and arrows while ASKING MY Questions.
He is my voice. Your NITS are your NITS.
And, FWIW, if he was NOT a controlled insider... What message would the CONTROLLERS want to spread amongst his dearest supporters? (That he was).
So, ask yourself. Did you really come to these conclusions 100% on your own... Or are you being manipulated by those behind the scenes to document the very thing they cannot.
Said otherwise. Did Jane Fonda ever realize she was working against America's Interest? She's probably not smart enough...
But you are! - 57Gandalf quote is perfect! What I have been saying all along. Shut it down, witness no consequences, and wonder why it was ever funded.
More layoffs, more layoffs, more layoffs. Kill the housing market around DC,, which should never have developed! - 58Posted by mccannon01 2 days, 3 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 10/13/25 EDITION: Not JUST another shutdownIt would be great to see this wonderful set repeated again next week! #8 is my favorite this week, especially the hammer and sickle trash! As for the rest, what would you call the permanent layoff of thousands of unconstitutional government jobs? A good start. DOGE at this point is essential, but it never should have had to come to that. IMHO, DOGE is doing what con-gress critters should have been doing all along, but totally shirked that responsibility for their own gain.
- 59Posted by $ allosaur 2 days, 11 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 10/13/25 EDITION: Not JUST another shutdownIt's obvious to even a dino that the Dems stubbornly cling to their demand to spend over $1 trillion for the medical costs of millions of illegals due to their forlorn hope of somehow awarding them all citizenship.
Why? That would pile on so many new Democrat voters that the Jackass Party would produce votes enough to obtain perpetual one party rule.
That was the who idea in the first place for treasonously inviting in such an invasion without giving a damn who gets robbed, raped or murdered.
I heard on Fox News that five Democrats crossing the aisle is all it will take to outvote that $1 trillion plus demand.
Is it possible that such a lust for absolute power can overcome that record 4-year government shutdown?
Dino just wondering. Tick tock tick tock~~ - 60Posted by $ Olduglycarl 2 days, 13 hours ago to IN THE MEME TYME 10/13/25 EDITION: Not JUST another shutdownThread spacing was off in these long planned event Comms, (crumbs), because of the missing pieces, I'm just giving you a shortened version. Most of us are aware of the planning that has gone on over the past 8 plus years.
Charlie Kirk had his finger prints on some of this planned too, not to mention, many others we all know. - 61Sorry to hear that, I have been loosing old friends too of late.
But we must continue on in their absents just the same. Better for the knowing of them in our lives. - 62Posted by $ jbrenner 2 days, 18 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicParts 1 and 2 laid out important facts, to be sure. I will concede that the Deep State is trying to control Trump, and in the first Trump administration, arguably they succeeded. Unless Part Three is way better than anything else that anyone else has revealed, they haven't succeeded in co-opting Trump v. 2. Trump may have delayed releasing certain things until he can achieve greater impact with what he is delaying on. He is several steps ahead of what most people think he is. They have almost succeeded in stopping his agenda a couple of times this term, most notably with regard to his big, pretty ugly, definitely not beautiful, bill. He is willing to take some small victories en route to winning the war. That isn't very Objectivist, but when has Objectivism won on a large scale? Having governed one year as a faculty senate president, I can tell you that governing is a lot harder than most people think. I had to support an agenda item I was personally opposed to because not doing so would have violated someone else's personal liberties.
- 63Posted by $ jbrenner 2 days, 18 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicBut the real point is that the stuff that is coming would already be here had Trump not been elected President. Trump has actively worked against the technototalitarianism, but there are many obstacles (i.e. people mostly but also $) working against him. He is doing the best that he can, but the system that you describe has insulated itself pretty well. It will take a long time to destroy the filth that has been built. In fact, it may be beyond repair.

The rainy season finally ended. Today, we have a high in the low 80's and a low of 66. Bright and sunny. - 66Posted by $ jbrenner 2 days, 20 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicCertainly what is being hidden from us regarding US/Israel surveillance is beyond appropriate, but quite frankly, as someone who once held a security clearance, when you deal with national security agencies like Mossad and CIA, you have to expect that your every move is going to be tracked. I know I did back then, and frankly I still expect it. When you venture onto the Internet, anyone who expects privacy, even with VPN, is delusional. This is exactly why the Gulch had to be behind a electromagnetic interference shielding. Ironically, I am working to develop such an EMI shielding, amongst many other things.
Nations don't have friends. They have interests. I'm not sure which Tom Clancy novel that is from. Gathering, keeping, and sometimes exposing such interests is how nations exert control over their interests. If you don't accept that, then you shouldn't be in the game with the looters, because that is exactly whom you will find in the national security game.
While I feel bad for General Flynn, he should have been more careful when Comey came to interview him. Did Flynn and others have their personal liberties infringed upon? Of course they did. Should they have expected that? Yes.
On the other hand, shadow banning and debanking are evidence of a general "enemies list". As Obama said, we will reward our friends and punish our enemies. Certainly he did, and Biden at least doubled down on it. The difference is that people outside of government should not expect to have their liberties infringed in those ways in America like they would in almost any other country in the world. This is precisely why the American Constitution, and particularly the Bill of Rights, is as critical as it is.
How were your rights infringed upon? Mine were trampled upon in many ways, including having to postpone an invention that could have largely solved the COVID issue for 5 years until this year. I am quite literally a John Galt. While I think that the Epstein/Maxwell situation is important and obviously a cover-up, it really had precious little impact on me, even though I find the sexual exploitation that they perpetrated morally repugnant. This is a serious violation that has an effect on a narrow segment of the population, and thus should be dealt with. What I listed as the most egregious violations of personal liberties are not as morally repugnant as sex slavery, rape, and/or murder, the number of people impacted by what I referred to is innumerable. It quite literally set back the entire society until Trump became president again. Very easily Trump's ascensions to the presidency might never have happened, and we would have never known about Epstein/Maxwell. In that case, the Epstein/Maxwell cancer and all the tumors it generated that I referred to would still have gone unchecked. - 67Posted by straightlinelogic 2 days, 20 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicThat's nickel and dime stuff compared to what's coming. Part Three will be out soon.
- 68Posted by straightlinelogic 2 days, 20 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicThe "most egregious violations of personal liberties in our lifetime" . . . so far. I'd put the Simpsons cartoon in this reply if I could.

- 70Posted by $ Thoritsu 2 days, 22 hours ago to The USA is all that is standing against World GovernanceBorn in Cocoa and grew up in Melbourne. We need a Brenner/FIT road trip.
- 71Posted by $ jbrenner 2 days, 23 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicArguably, the most egregious violations of personal liberties in our lifetime have been a) COVID-related loss of freedom of assembly and speech; b) COVID-related masking; c) shadow banning by search engines and related companies (ostensibly for COVID-related speech, but actually far more general than that), and d) ESG-related debanking, not necessarily in that order. All have been reversed by Trump, albeit not nearly as soon as they should have been.
- 72Posted by $ jbrenner 2 days, 23 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicI will concede that Trump's COVID restrictions were totalitarian, and have said so in this forum on multiple occasions. It is for this reason that I wanted my own Governor DeSantis to win the 2024 primary. DeSantis was the second governor to lift COVID restrictions.
- 73Posted by $ jbrenner 2 days, 23 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicHe got the shadow banning on people like me reversed (very recently) by all the search engine companies and other companies that . While I will concede the point on seeing Fort Knox's gold, I won't concede your point regarding the imposition of technototalitarianism. Trump has actually done quite a lot on this point. While the shadow banning reversal is significant, it actually is minor compared to the ESG situation that Biden et al. got the banks to impose. Now that that has been reversed, too, I don't need worry about being debanked like some people I know were (and Eric Trump said very recently happened to the Trump Organization). Point not conceded here.
- 74Posted by straightlinelogic 3 days, 2 hours ago to Technototalitarianism, Part Two, by Robert Gore at Straight Line LogicHere's another good question. Why, as I point out in both Part 1 and Part 2, has Trump done nothing but encourage the imposition of technototalitarianism? Name one thing he's done to try and stop it.

However, I have a brother who picked up a place outside Titusville so maybe if I find my way back there we can meet for coffee or something if you don't mind.
