Shortly after the 2020 election, I predicted that Trump would be arrested within a few months, followed in due course by an ever increasing number of Republicans, and would in due course be Epsteined, executed, or disappeared. It rapidly became apparent that this prediction was on Musk time. The conspirators that stole the election, like the conspirators who murdered Caesar, expected and intended to return to normality by abnormal means. …

Elections and voting
Democracy died on 2020-11-04, so I have been paying no attention to elections, electoral integrity laws, and all that. But, due to normalcy bias, lots of people have: In the run up before the 2020-11-03 election, the Democrats massively escalated all their regular routine fraud, sufficient to deal with a massive Trump landslide. But instead of a massive Trump landslide, they got a colossal Trump landslide, so in the early …
Pushing back on social justice warriors.
Remember how Github went social justice? Well elections have consequences “Coralineâ€, an autogynophilic male to female transexual, competent programmer, and political commissar, recently got purged from Github by the mandarinate. Mandarins are priests, and Social Justice Warriors are priests, but social Justice Warriors are primarily into runaway extreme holier than thou holiness, while mandarins are more into politely conforming to the official religion and emitting all the right social signals. …
The permanent trump crisis
At a gut level, the Cathedral feels the Trump presidency to be illegal, unconstitutional, and improper. They simply know it is illegal, unconstitutional and improper, but cannot come up with any intelligible or coherent explanation of why – or rather any explanation that they can say out loud. All the standard rules that you or I should apply in a conflict with Social Justice Warriors apply in a conflict between …
The psychological benefits of protectionism
Free trade is good on average, but: 1. Protectionism declares production, which is at present condemned as fascist nazi sin against Gaia, to be righteous and good. Protectionism strikes at the moral superiority of progs, who think that shutting down factories, mines, and sawmills is inherently virtuous. 2 . International agreements like the Transpacific Partnership are not free trade, and impair people’s ability to form families and have children, which …
Trump denounces the press
“You are fake news†Trump is able to take on the mass media because he has is own non state power base. He is the Batman’s Bruce Wayne. But the elephant in the living room is Academia. He has small plans to take on Academia over global warming pseudo science and reluctance to subject vaccines to adequate safety testing, but the biggie is degree deflation, and we have not heard …
What the alt right hopes for from Trump
Trump has promised to build a wall, deport millions of illegals, and stop people who hate us from migrating here. Well, that is pretty good, but what we really wish is for Trump to be King and high priest, and his son to be grand inquisitor. That is a mighty tall order, but it would stand a mighty good chance of curing civilizational decay. We need him to be King …
Don’t worry about Trump policy reversals – yet
Trump is reversing himself on pretty much everything. Suddenly he is the cuckservative president. But remember, he does not formally get power until January, and actually getting his hands on the real levers of power will take at least six weeks after that. He will not really have power until March at the earliest. The wonderful smirk on his face gives me strong hope that once he has his hands …
In favor of taking the left on helicopter rides to the Pacific
Trump is our leader, and Trump plans to do this in accord with the spirit of the constitution, which is to say, without helicopter rides to the Pacific. Maybe it can be made to work that way, and if can be made to work that way, its our duty to make it work that way. But the left really are hateful horrible thoroughly nasty people. Notice for example that servants …
Draining the swamp
Trump has promised to drain the swamp. Then in his acceptance speech, he promised not to drain the swamp. This is less worrying than it might seem, since when you purge powerful people, you don’t want them to see it coming. From now till the start of the purge, he is going to be playing his cards very close to his chest. Any predictions made from his behavior between now …
