The Biden regime promised the Ukraine a lot of weapons. Trump has relaxed secondary sanctions, something from which I have personally benefited, has not authorised any weapons, but did not, at first, cancel Biden authorised supplies. Now, as part of his program of giving warriors a more significant role in the military leadership, has authorised them to hang on to their stuff — that the Biden promises do not empower …

The Trump Revolution
Hat tip Yarvin’s butterfly revolution. 1. Get the oligarchs on side, and threaten any Republican traitors with big money primary opponents ✔ Done. 2. Defund the left. Under way. Notice how, once Musk seized the inner sanctum at USAID, the Democrats found themselves unable to put a river of meat on the streets. It looks like the microphone for which a thousand shills were the loudspeakers was located there. Their …
Trump thunderbolt of 2025 January 27
With two hundred thunderbolts coming from the president in a week, it is easy to overlook this one in the noise, but he has just struck the heart of the enemy. OPM, the HR of all HR, from which all HRs everywhere in the Global American Empire ultimately derive their power is, as they say in their post on r/fednews, being dismantled. “The non-political civil servants here at OPM are …
Marc Andreessen does not get it
The progs believe that Marc Andreessen is the primary ideologist of the tech oligarch wing of the Trump coalition. This is an odd delusion. Under the New York Times new policy of listening to their enemies for a change, the New York Times interviewed Mark Andreessen. Andreessen is a natural born Havel’s Greengrocer. There is not a political thought in his head. Political thoughts continually explode out of Musk, who …
Days of Thunder
Trump’s inauguration was shock and awe. In his speech he echoed Oliver Cromwell’s address to the Long Parliament, the first Thermidor in the history of English speaking people against the first left singularity. Did he know he was echoing it? Has he been at the history books? Probably at least some of those around him have. But Oliver Cromwell’s coup against the long parliament was only the beginning. Cromwell had …
Pete Hegseth gets it, sort of.
A state exists because its army exists. States exist because armies exist. A state needs a faith, and an army needs a faith. There is always a state faith. And starting with Obama, the faith of woke is currently being imposed on the army — a faith incompatible with the army’s core function, which efficiently killing people and breaking things. It is also incompatible with war production, or production of …
Government Healthcare and the deficit
Healthcare in the US is extraordinarily, ludicrously, bad. It is also absurdly, extraordinarily, ludicrously expensive, both for any individual who is not part of an official victim group, and for the government. The government deficit is about two trillion dollars, and is unsustainable. Economic collapse and hyperinflation looms. The cost of healthcare to the government is about equal to the deficit. Comparing US (corrupt civil service and judiciary) health care …
The Trump program
Howard Lutnik, transition leader for the Trump team, tells us how Trump intends to keep his promises this time around. Trump is likely to win in a landslide. It looks like coup Thermidor has gone through, and they are just waiting to hold an actually free and fair election to make it official and legal. Which does not mean that free and fair elections are back in style, but they …

The dissolution of the Monasteries 2.0
I always talk about Charles the Second, who undid a left singularity and built good economic and religious institutions. But I also frequently comment that fixing the problem requires the dissolution of the monasteries, which is a reference to Henry the eighth I normally do not cover the news of the day, but couple of days ago, Trump proposed the dissolution of the monasteries. A future American ruler is likely …
