If you thought the lefty heads were going bananas about Mark Zuckerberg going to Mar-a-Lago to bend a knee to President Trump, wait until they find out Justin from Canada is there today.  lol

WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA Nov 29 (Reuters) – Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has arrived in Palm Beach, Florida ahead of a meeting with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort, according to media reports.

Trudeau’s public itinerary does not list a scheduled visit to Florida. Neither Trudeau’s office nor representatives for Trump immediately responded to requests for comment.

Trump on Monday threatened to impose a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico until the countries clamped down on drugs, particularly fentanyl, and migrants crossing the border. (read more)

Too funny.

On October 27th, as the outcome of the Georgia election surfaced in stunning clarity, we warned that the U.S. would fight strongly against the result {GO DEEP}.  Yesterday, unquestionably with the support of Samantha Power – who had vested significant time in the nation, a series of riots against the government surfaced.

The pragmatic and non-pretending people of Georgia saw what the U.S and EU did to Ukraine, and they want nothing to do with it.  Georgians overwhelmingly voted to retain their sovereignty and right to self-determination.  The Biden administration and the EU are furious about it, and immediately the U.S. State Department promised to organize every effort in their interventionist arsenal to challenge the election outcome.

Having spent tens of millions financing an attempted color revolution, and with Samantha Power having traveled to Georgia three times (twice while I watched her), the CIA and State Department were not happy with the result.  As expected, Brussels hit back hard against the rebellious Georgians.

BRUSSELS – […] In a session in Strasbourg, MEPs voted by a margin of 444-72 in favor of a motion to declare the parliamentary election results in the South Caucasus country invalid, arguing they “do not serve as a reliable representation of the will of the Georgian people.” It calls for the election to be re-run within a year under international supervision.

In a statement following passage of the motion, the Parliament said Georgia’s voting process had been “neither free nor fair,” after international election observers expressed concern over pressure on citizens and allegations of vote buying and ballot stuffing.

I made a promise to you that after the President Trump cabinet was assembled, I would review, research and then present my take on what is “most likely” given the nature of the assembly.  My hope today is to take all my notes and research from the past three weeks and put those thoughts into a digestible format.  I’m working on it in the background of so many things :).

There is a general theme visible, one of a large scale, perhaps described as unity; perhaps described as healing; perhaps described as a new era in Americanism.  The Trump Doctrine (which few really understand) in combination with the cabinet assembly, is a great indicator of what lies ahead.

What President Ronald Reagan was to Generation X, President Donald Trump hopes to be for Generation Z; you can see it in everything he does.  A transformative figure that changes the way the American people view and interact with government, with his own unique and modern twist on it.  In essence, what will predictably described as ‘the legacy of Trump‘.

“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”

“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

In this episode of Joe Rogan, Marc Andreessen discusses some very important topics in the world of politics.

Marc Andreessen is a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, investor, and software engineer. He is co-creator of the world’s first widely used internet browser, Mosaic, cofounder and general partner at the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, and cohost of “The Ben & Marc Show” podcast.

Andreessen was also a life-long democrat, and the details of the subject matter he outlines is really quite remarkable. It’s a long discussion; however, if you do not have time use the chapter reference points. Andreessen talks rather fast, and the conversation is being widely discussed.

During an appearance in Kazakhstan today, Russian President Vladimir Putin had a press conference with Russian journalists who asked questions about the current conflict with Ukraine.

Before getting to the video, it is worth mentioning that our western viewpoint of Russia respecting strength; is not entirely accurate. There is something Russians respect more than strength, brutal honesty.

One of the things that separates Russians from their eastern European counterparts, is their keen ability to detect and dismiss bullshit. If you watch Russian engagement, from either inside or outside of Russia, their non pretending is truly an artform. Even the silent space between their words is something remarkable to watch.

In this first video segment, Russian President Putin is asked about the motives of outgoing U.S. President Joe Biden to escalate the NATO conflict with Russia. President Putin responds by outlining genuine, factual and honest motives that political pundits in the USA pretend not to know.  It’s fascinating to watch:

JUST IN: 🇷🇺🇺🇸 Russian President Putin slams US President Biden for trying to escalate the war before Donald Trump is inaugurated to prevent a peace deal.

“If president Biden thinks that by escalating the confrontation, he does anything to prevent the future administration from… pic.twitter.com/dXGoN1yLhW

Why the presser? Why the questions? Why the willingness? Look, I’m no Putin whisperer, but I can see a brutally obvious motive of Vladimir Putin speaking directly to President Trump, through the media. For a myriad of reasons, including the honesty of his responses and statements, this approach seems completely logical and practical.

This next segment is even more interesting.

Having studied the intersections of social connections, culture, politics and DC systems, and after a long careful review of our current state of being, I have come to a conclusion that sets the conversation around the Thanksgiving dinner table in 2024.

I earnestly believe that in the USA, on a social and political level, there are two group assemblies in a transitional period of dynamic opposition to each other.

♦ Those who pretend.
♦ Those who do not pretend.

There are republicans and democrats who pretend, and there are democrats and republicans who do not pretend.

My contention is that what we call “MAGA” is a larger assembly of the non-pretending group. Hence, the cross-party/cross-cultural cross-over, and what is often called the division in our nation.

Everyone watching Mideast politics connected the November 11th visit of Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer to President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home just a day before Dermer sat down to discuss a potential ceasefire agreement with Biden’s Secretary of State Tony Blinken.

President Trump’s resounding win in the November 5th U.S. election changed things.

Without doubt, Israel watched the final weeks of the election and saw Arab and Muslim-Americans supporting President Trump specifically because Trump has expressed very publicly the bloodshed must stop, and it must stop quickly.  President Trump won Michigan in part due to that support.

“Just stop the killing” is a message President Trump has repeated frequently, and not just about the middle east.  The pragmatic and forceful Trump demand to stop killing people and get to the negotiating table also looms heavily over Ukraine and Russia.  However, in the Israeli-Hezbollah conflict, both sides want to be well positioned when President Trump takes office.

That backdrop, the scale of Trump’s presence in the geopolitical dynamic, is admitted by even the most severe of President Trump’s critics at the Washington Post, New York Times and Politico.  The domestic political media may not like Donald Trump, but they cannot deny the impact of his doctrine when it comes to stopping senseless violence and halting hatred.  Both Israel and Lebanon understand this dynamic.  Even Iran knows it is in their best interests to restrain Hezbollah, as the Trump horizon dawns again.
