Disputes over sovereign authority inherently escalate until decisively resolved. Thermidor has unity, because they agree on restoring the Republic — which would be FDR’s version of the Republic, with the president regaining control over the immense, immensely powerful, and lawless, presidency that FDR created. The Republic, however, is dead, and what can be restored is a zombie Republic like that of Augustus Caesar. The founders created three equal branches of …

The Global American Empire in Exile
When the coke addled gnome conspicuously failed to kiss Trump’s ring, and then slobbered all over Starmer’s ring, he was declaring the allegiance of the second most formidable army in Europe to the Global American Empire in Exile. (The most formidable army in Europe being Russia’s.) The Ukraine war has long been a war between CIA funded and run Nazis in Canada continuing Hitler’s war on the Soviet Union. Now …
The Trump Zelensky confrontation
Obviously, the Ukraine needs to sign on to the peace deal, if there is to be a peace deal, and Putin insists that only a plausibly legitimate government can sign, therefore Zelensky needs to be eliminated. So this confrontation serves Trump’s goals. And, because the US is out of ammo, it also serve’s Thermidor’s goals, or at least those of the less insane part of Thermidor. At minimum, they need …
You heard it here first
This blog is not about the news of the day, but the news of the century and the millenium. Which therefore bleeds into the future. So, taking a victory lap. Unnamed “foreign diplomatic sources” are saying the Ukraine peace plan under discussion is a temporary short term ceasefire, followed by an election, followed by an actual peace deal. Reading between the lines, Russian sources. American and Ukrainian “sources” are pushing …
How to make peace in the Ukraine
The Ukraine war is existential for Russia and Russians. Russia has no natural borders, and a long history of the unpleasant consequences of having no natural borders. America’s natural borders are the oceans, and it takes a very dim view of hostile foreign powers on the wrong side of the ocean. Monroe doctrine, Cuban crisis. The Cuban crisis nearly went nuclear, and the Ukraine is likely to go nuclear if …
Autogolpe
I generally do not report on, nor pay attention to, the latest news of the day, because it is best understood years later, or centuries later. And I tend to discourage conversation about such news, because it is noise. The shills send in piles of links to latest noise, and I silently delete them. But the meaning of Trump 2.0 now becomes apparent. So this post is going to be …
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 …
Know your enemy, know yourself
you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle. Because the Woke do not comprehend anything outside their bubble, they drift uncomprehendingly towards war. Because they do not comprehend anyone outside their bubble, they drift towards a …
Condition of the Maidan regime in January 2025
On available data, it looks as during this war, and in the lead up to this war, the Maidan regime recruited and conscripted about two and a half million men. The regime says the current size of its army is nine hundred thousand men under arms, but it looks more like two or three hundred thousand thousand men under arms, because the Russian army has seven hundred thousand men under …
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 …
