May everything this dude says come true.
Apathy is the greatest enemy here. It's being drilled into the people's heads continually.
Obama says you need a magic wand. But there's no magic. Just a will to action. You see, there's folks who've given up. That's no good. Obama is just keeping that discouragement going with that wise crack about magic wands. It's no mystery. There's no magic.

Victory is in sight?
What is the Baba Yaga?
John Wick scene.
So, the Baba Yaga is the boogie-man? Not according to duck-duck go's ai. That query included links to Wikipedia and another source. Not exactly the friggin' boogie man.
But it makes for an interesting movie.
Maybe Hillary is the Baba Yaga. Kamala Harris is too dumb. AOC is even dumber than Kamala Harris, but the young-uns might like her. They've been so dumb-down by the lefties that it would be a surprise if they know how to wipe their own asses, much less run their own lives.
Lani Guinier plus James Carville plus James Talarico means disaster for America
Anybody out there remember Lani Guinier? Her nomination failed in 1993, and was withdrawn by then President Bill Clinton. James Talarico claims to be for checks and balances, but would he agree with James Carville's plan? Why should anybody believe Talarico when he doesn't have any respect for truth himself. The same charge of dishonesty was applied to "Slick Willy" ---Bill Clinton. Events may prove to be worse than most people would like to think. If this happens, America as we have known it, will be destroyed.
Don't let James Talarico skin-suit Texas and America. It is a risk we cannot afford to take.Space program spinning its wheels

Trump didn't end VentureStar, Pres. George W. Bush did. Instead, Bush initiated Constellation, which Obama cancelled. Then the SLS replaced Constellation, and the National program stalled out. Now there's SpaceX, but theDemocrats commies want to cancel out Musk because they're big mad at him for buying Twitter and supporting Trump.
Now there's Robert (Third) Reich, who wants to nationalize SpaceX. You cannot nationalize genius. What a fool. America will lose the race to the moon to China, which is what the commies want anyway. (IF THE COMMIES WIN, DON'T LET 'EM!)

That's why it is stuck in LEO ( low Earth orbit).
The only way space gets conquered is if it can become economical to have it. It was the same story with automobiles. Until Henry Ford produced the Model T, cars were an expensive toy for the rich. The Model T made owning a car affordable for the general public.
There's not much incentive in Washington to reduce the costs of anything. The real incentive is to make everything as expensive as possible. That kind of thinking is what brought us trillion dollar deficits that were shocking four years ago. Now, they are commonplace. At least as long as our credit holds up.
I like Gingrich because I like space and his space initiatives seemed to offer the best chance forward in space. He advocated prizes for space achievements. People respond to prizes, so his idea made good sense. Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic in response to a prize. Gingrich was just advocating the long observed principle of people responding to incentives. People responded to incentives in buying a Model T, it was after all, affordable.
What is the incentive in Washington? To amass more power, that's what. It doesn't do anything but grow budgets and grow debts. Washington is nothing but a big, fat money and power hog.
This SLS system is a big boondoggle. I can't think of anything more stupid- if the idea is to conquer space. If the idea is to spend more money in order to do nothing, then this is your baby. Instead of squandering billions, the intelligent thing to do is to use what already works, instead of spending money you don't have in order to recreate something that already existed 30 years ago.
The VentureStar would have worked, but that was canceled. But the VentureStar would not have taken very much cargo to space. Well, who cares? You don't need to have one ship do every damned thing. The VentureStar could have taken people to space on a regular basis. You can rationalize this on an economic basis- like the Model T. Some say the VentureStar was a boondoggle. Even if it was a boondoggle, it is a small boondoggle. Better to have small ones than a big one like the SLS.
The Model T worked because it wasn't intended to be all things to all people. It worked because it was affordable. If the VentureStar could have transported people to space for an affordable price, it would have been worth every penny spent on it. It could have been the modern era's Model T. It could have worked. If only Washington did.

Here's a GAB AI chat about the film. How many so-called "right-wing" influencers actually use information like this? You won't find this in many places, and you will find it right here.
6/12/26: The original post is below:
This was a movie made several years ago, maybe in 2018. The point being that I know that it isn't new, but it IS new to me.
There's some new information ( once again to me ) presented. Perhaps it may be considered new to others as well.
It's been written many times here that there's no big difference between communists and fascists. So that isn't new to me. The historical view shows that this is actually quite true. Fascism was well-known to be a creature of the left during the time of Mussolini and Hitler. How many folks knew that? I didn't. Just goes to show ya, I guess.
If I, being one who follows politics a lot; didn't know that, then it stands to reason that many folks out there don't know that.
But I suppose these same folks wouldn't care, or wouldn't bother finding out for themselves if this is true.
Indeed, you cannot convince a man who will not be convinced. You CAN convince a man who is mostly convinced anyway.
I write that because it seems to be a rather powerful movie that should have moved the needle, but really didn't. Why do you suppose that is?
Here's a trailer for the film. It is on Tubi. I just watched it for the first time today. Highly recommended.

3rd Quarter GDP Comes in Strong at 3.4% Growth - Even with Massive Increase in Imported Industrial Purchases, "The AI Factor"

Nice write up by Sundance.
Guess I'm going to beat this one to death, but here goes anyway. The political left, as well as Talarico, are running on the fear of AI. But if AI rescues our economy and our nation, we may be destroying our very capacity to help ourselves if we let him win the day with that. Then our situation may well become hopeless.
Talarico is running against hope. Think about what that could mean. But the Bushies are worried about Paxton so much that they may have sabotaged his campaign. If it succeeds, that will help the Bushes, but the Bushies are supposed to be so virtuous doncha know. I smell a substantially large rat.

It is interesting to go through this post as well as the comments.
The same playbook is being used against Paxton. It didn't work on Trump, but will it work on Paxton?
Have to say that I don't think much of the Bush faction, and that is getting more so every day. Reagan made a big mistake in naming George Herbert Walker Bush as his running mate in 1980. If he didn't do that, nobody would ever have known a thing about the Bushes. Bush couldn't get the nomination in 1980, and he probably wouldn't have beaten Carter even if he did. He owed his career, such as it was, to none other than the Gipper. But the Gipper made a mistake. Or was it? If there are so many who cannot discern what is important from what isn't, then what chance do we have?

Looks like this published before I thought it would be.
As for additional commentary, I might want to reiterate that this won't have the affect that is intended. We'll have to see about that. As for me, it only increases my determination. I can't speak for others on this, however. Therefore, that remains to be seen. This article is good to see.
Just because they are desperate DOES NOT MEAN that they should be underestimated. To the contrary. Cornered rats indeed.
Beware the cornered rat!
