History does count.

It's how I made a perfect prediction of the outcome of the election when you, Allan Licthman, Nate Silver and the entire Legacy Media got it wrong.

Does today's news count or is that already in the distant past? Supreme Court ruled (actually only the Trumptards on the court ruled) that Trump couldn't be convicted of anything he ever did. Today, a judge is set to rule on whether to scrap Trump’s conviction.

Fucking crybaby. Trump didn't do anything wrong. Half of those fake cases had already been thrown out or thrown out on appeal.

Your lawfare failed, just as I told you it would from the beginning.

Maybe Democrats will figure out why they're so shit before 2028. But if all they do is point fingers for the next 4 years expect to lose even bigger than you did in 2024.

Trump’s Great Escape

Days before January 6, he was caught trying to commit a crime. There’s no sign the Justice Department is investigating.

At some point, perhaps in ways that we cannot fully envision, and sooner rather than later, the country will pay the price for this dereliction of duty.

(I wrote this in an email 3 years past: When Trump, or somebody just as crazy, Ted Cruz for example, is back in the White House, we are going to regret that Biden was too old, sleepy, and cowardly to prosecute Trump because Biden hopes the voters will do what is actually the Dept. of Justice's duty.)

I'm not kidding when I call you a Nazi and shithead, 6ixStringJack. Thankfully for you and Trump, Biden remains too old, sleepy, and cowardly to prosecute, not to mention kill the wannabe Hitler, your Fuhrer, Donald J Trump.

Yesterday, foolish old Biden was promising Trump a smooth transition, which strongly hints that Biden will be remembered as poorly as President James Buchanan, another old fool, but his crime was doing nothing to stop the Confederates, particularly Jefferson Davis. It would have been easy for Buchanan to kill Davis before he became the Confederacy's President. Jeff Davis was right there in Washington DC, telling everyone what his plans were. But President Buchanan decided to let Lincoln handle Jeff Davis in hopes that things would work out for the best. Didn't happen the way Buchanan hoped. The result? A million dead Americans rather than a Civil War limited to a dead Jeff Davis. In the present day, possible future chaos could be avoided if Biden would kill Trump. But again, Biden is not the kind of guy to do what needs doing. Never has and never will. Definitely Biden was the wrong person for the job of keeping America safe from Nazis, fascists, and Trumptards. He was expecting them to be imposing limits on themselves and open to reason rather than retards full of sound and fury.

You and Biden think talking solves problems. But if the problem person can't be talked into behaving, the correct step is NOT more talking. Lawyers always think that further discussions are the next step after talking has failed. Maybe more talk will finally succeed! (Hint: It won't.)

This is recent history, which explains why Biden didn't command the DOJ to crush Trump nor the DOD to crush Russia:

Biden’s escalation paralysis has devastated Ukraine

(Yes, I mean that Biden should have escalated the prosecution of Trump to the highest priority of all tasks the DOJ has and stomping Russia's ass as the highest priority of the DOD. But Biden lowered the priorities to the medium level of the US government. Biden didn't want to break a sweat.)

By Jonathan Sweet and Mark Toth | 11/14/24 7:00 AM ET

https://thehill.com/opinion/national-security/4988504-biden-administra
tion-ukraine-war/

Bob Woodward’s new book “War” provides a harrowing glimpse into the Biden administration’s national security decisionmaking process. Established early in the war, the White House created its own self-fulfilling prophecy.

President Biden’s self-imposed red line was his evergreen fear of Russian use of tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine.

Then-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley inexplicably told the Kremlin all it needed to know when he asked his counterpart in Russia, Gen. Valery Gerasimov, “under what conditions would you use nuclear weapons?”

Milley was basically asking the Russians, “How far are we allowed to go? What are our limits?” He thus allowed Russian President Vladimir Putin to establish our rules.

Gerasimov’s response was this: “If there’s an attack on Russia that threatens the stability of the regime — condition one. Second, is if a foreign power attacks Russia with a weapon of mass destruction — so that’s chemical, biological or nuclear. Third, Russia reserves the right to use tactical nuclear weapons in the event of catastrophic battlefield loss.”

That one phone call gave the Kremlin the roadmap for constraining U.S. support to Ukraine — and the Kremlin has been exploiting it ever since. Biden’s escalation paralysis likely began with this call.

Gerasimov’s third condition to Milley explains the Biden administration’s “just enough” strategy for aid to Ukraine and his “just weaken Russia” approach to the war. As we have argued, the administration’s “fear of winning outweighed the fear of losing. Enabling Ukraine to defend itself became the strategy — a war of attrition that eventually would bring both to the negotiation table was seen as the best course of action. Not for Ukraine — but for the U.S.”

Putin has leveraged that weakness ever since. And the U.S. has obliged. Every battlefield success by Ukraine, every new weapons system provided to the Ukrainian military, was countered with a new Russian nuclear threat.

Tactical and strategic nuclear forces exercises, test launches, aides displaying the Russian “nuclear football” and meetings with North Korea — all designed to reinforce the belief that Russia would respond with a nuclear option.

Enabling Ukraine to win has never been an option.

“If we do not fully succeed in ejecting Russia from Ukraine, we will have let Putin kind of get away with something,” Biden said. “If we do fully succeed in ejecting Russia from Ukraine, we face a very strong likelihood of nuclear use because Putin is not going to let himself be routed out of Ukraine without breaking the seal on tactical nuclear weapons. So, we’re stuck. Too much success is nukes, too little success is a kind of uncertain indefinite outcome.”

Biden would later say that “if Putin used a tactical nuclear weapon on the battlefield in Ukraine, the U.S. would not respond with nuclear weapons,” adding that he was not “going to have a nuclear response to battlefield use in Ukraine.” As Bob Woodward concluded, “nuclear weapons were the silent shadow present in all their deliberations.”

The Biden administration chose the easy wrong (arm Ukraine to defend itself) over the difficult but correct decision of arming Ukraine to defeat the Russians and push them out of the country.

According to retired Army Gen. Jack Keane, Putin “is completely determined to take control of Ukraine … he is also determined to expand into eastern Europe and increase the Russian Empire.” The Kremlin is even integrating 11,000-plus North Korean troops into Russian formations in their Kursk counter offensive.

However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is determined to secure Ukraine’s independence, telling NBC’s “Meet the Press” anchor Kristen Welker, “We aren’t ready to give our freedom to this f—ing terrorist Putin.”

Russian casualties are not a showstopper for Putin — he will continue to press, to create carnage. Putin’s “special military operation” is now nearing 33 months. He has incurred 712,610 Russian casualties. During October, Moscow lost an average of 1,500 troops a day. According to the Ukrainian general staff, Russia lost 1,950 soldiers on November 11.

While the Biden administration attempts to “right the ship” in Ukraine during its final months in office, the incoming Trump team is considering cutting aid to Ukraine and getting firmly behind Israel in its conflict with Hamas. But the two are inextricably connected by an “Axis of Evil” led by Russia.

Keane made this connection on Fox News, “China, Russia, Iran and North Korea are colluding and cooperating and coordinating together and they’ve become so much more aggressive and assertive … It’s not isolated that Russia invaded Ukraine. It’s not isolated that Iran operationalized all of its proxies in the Middle East.”

Sen. Bill Hagerty’s (R-Tenn.) comment on “Face the Nation” about cutting aid to Ukraine to “stop the carnage” is not the solution. It will not stop the carnage — rather, it will simply expedite it.

Russia will fire more artillery, launch more cruise missiles and drones, and throw more bodies into the Ukraine meat grinder until Kyiv capitulates. Ukrainian cities and the civilians who reside there will bear the brunt of the slaughter. So too will the soldiers in the trenches, once they have exhausted their ammunition.

Biden’s last-minute efforts to disburse the remaining $6 billion remaining from the aid package approved by Congress in April, along with $20 billion in loans to Ukraine, will have no effect on the outcome of the war if they do not also provide precision deep strike weapons and the authorization to use them. Doubling down on defensive weapons will not win the war but only prolong it. Why is that lesson so difficult to understand?

Europe is beginning to get it, however.

If elected German chancellor, Friedrich Merz says “he would push for a 24-hour deadline for Russia to end the war. Should this demand go unmet, he would advocate delivering Taurus long-range missiles to Ukraine.”

Even the United Kingdom and France are developing much-needed backbone as the second Trump administration looms. According to The Telegraph, “Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron … will discuss on Monday whether Joe Biden … can be persuaded to give Ukraine permission to fire Storm Shadow missiles deep into Russia.”

Washington’s best course of action is a Ukraine-first policy — defeat Russia. Ukraine is on the edge of a negative outcome if it is not provided with critical weapon systems to defeat Russian and North Korean troops and their weapon systems in Russia. Israel, on the other hand, can hold its own for now against Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran. Once Russia is defeated in Ukraine, its support to North Korea and Iran will wane.

Trump needs to see a winning hand to get behind. Biden has not enabled Ukraine to win — merely to survive. That said, the Trump administration would likewise do well by remembering Captain James Lawrence’s call concerning the fate of the USS Chesapeake in June 1813: “Don’t give up the ship!”

Ukraine is that ship — a vessel of democracy in the Black Sea region, fighting for its survival. A Russian win would encourage others within the “Axis of Evil” to pursue territorial aspirations. Preventing that is very much in the national security interest of the U.S.

Little Nazi 6ix, you should be happy to know that Donald "Adolph Hitler" Trump wants to stack the DOJ’s leadership with his personal lawyers.

Trump has chosen Todd Blanche, the criminal defense lawyer in his New York hush money trial, to hold the No. 2 role in the Justice Department. On Thursday evening, Trump announced that three other lawyers he has close personal ties to will also be nominated to top DOJ jobs. If Biden does NOT get the message that Trump needs to be beaten to a bloody pulp before the inauguration, Biden should never have been President in the first place. Biden's only response will probably be to pray in secret that God guides Trump into enlightenment. Biden could do much more, but he won't, except to, maybe, make a very brief entry into his diary about misgivings on Trump's nominees.

Trump's choice of Matt Gaetz for attorney general ranks next to the story of Roman Emperor Caligula deciding to nominate his horse, Incitatus, as a consul.

It was graphic way for Caligula to express his contempt for the Roman Senate. It was a way of proving that he could not merely bend the Senators to his will, but he could humiliate them as well.

While Gaetz escaped federal prosecution for child sex trafficking, the House Ethics Committee was reportedly on the cusp of releasing a highly critical report about his sexual involvement with minors, his illegal drug use, his misuse of campaign funds, and his abuses of House privileges. Gaetz only escaped that judgment by abruptly resigning from the House.

For those bewildered by why so many Americans apparently voted against the values of liberal democracy, Balint Magyar has a useful formulation. “Liberal democracy,” he says, “offers moral constraints without problem-solving” — a lot of rules, not a lot of change — while “populism offers problem-solving without moral constraints.” Magyar, a scholar of autocracy, isn’t interested in calling Donald Trump a fascist. He sees the president-elect’s appeal in terms of something more primal: “Trump promises that you don’t have to think about other people.”

Trump and his supporters have shown tremendous hostility to civic institutions — the judiciary, the media, universities, many nonprofits, some religious groups — that seek to define and enforce our obligations to one another. He will reject that deliberative process, claiming for himself the exclusive right to define those obligations. If Trump’s first term is any indication, he will likely begin by getting rid of experts, regulators and other civil servants he sees as superfluous, eliminating jobs that he thinks simply shouldn’t exist.
