Empiricist Old-Testament Vajrayana, battered enough by life to have grown-up some, in my nearly-6-decades, autistic geek, philosopher who finds that Western philosophers are nowhere near at the level of correct-thinking of the Vajrayana stuff, & will be tearing-into Marx, etc, for their brainos ( Marx found that capitalism alienated workers, so he replaced capitalism with communism, which somehow “didn’t” alienate workers?? I’ve already cracked the underlying error, but that is a long article. It’ll happen. & so will the dismantling of the other philosophers’ bogons, the whole lot of 'em. : )
She was ruthlessly & systematically sabotaged by the Biden establishment, by male-supremacists, AND by white-supremacists.
& the left felt it ought coast on its victorious-feelings, which … handed leverage to their opponents…
She never had a fair chance.

Among MALES, not among females.
There was an article, perhaps the FT, which showed drastic divergance between the 2 populations of the same age.
shows a HARD left-swing for women, XOR a HARD right-swing for men, in the UK, ( both would look the same, on that chart ) only-recently.
That trend, though, is global, male-supremacism hand-in-hand with the upswing of male fascism/authoritarianism.
Males generally back male-supremacy.
Females generally do not.
“journalism” nowadays works hard to NOT show the correct granularity-of-view, showing what’s actually going on: the oversimplifications & dumbing-down are too beloved of the establishment.

seconding this: Ontario, Canada, removed the “duty counsel” obligation from competent working lawyers, & gave that work to lawyers who couldn’t compete as real lawyers ( based on both experience & background information given me by other lawyers ), & now you get “duty counsel” which WON’T DO THEIR ACTUAL JOB, so people who SHOULD have all charges dismissed, don’t get that, unless we hire a REAL lawyer, because the public-defenders won’t do what they’re supposed to do.
Idiocy.
& the whole industry of getting people convicted because they couldn’t afford a real lawyer … why should any jurisdiction which has integrity & LivingValues be doing that??
Obviously, just part of selling-out-more-completely, … bah.
Criminally-irresponsible “management” of our legal-system, in my view.

That’s insane:
Some people can’t get lawyers because they’re abusive scum, & have mis-treated all their previous lawyers.
Those people now get automatically aquitted??
They should have to self-represent, & have access to the required resources ( including books instructing how to do that, audiobooks for dyslexics, & access to the information enabling them to self-rep, checklists for what they have to do to actually accomplish self-rep, etc ) & time.
Sometimes it’ll be economic, sometimes it’ll be because no good lawyer will be abused by them, sometimes it’ll just be because there aren’t enough lawyers to go 'round.
but you CAN’T just acquit the evil ones, on technicalities: you’re in contempt of your responsibility as serving your civilization, if you’re a court doing that.

I think this is the same woman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbJ4ilDvGyc who identified that the receipts only make sense if it isn’t a ballroom, but a datacenter.
& that datacenter, obviously, would have no oversight ( my observation, not hers )
So, the correct title should then be “Trump’s $400M ‘Ballroom’ is necessary for national security”…
So don’t worry: it’ll be part of his backing of ICE’s predation on his enemies, so that’ll be fine, then, right?
& the “checks & balances” in government will prevent him from doing anything bad, just like they already have done so, rightttt?

No Kidding:
It’s strategic of China to grind-down TrueNATO, for the later ( years away ) war between the remnant of TrueNATO ( both Trump & Putin are committed to butchering NATO for their own kingdoms’ significance ) & China’s empire ( which will be being-built the minute that Trump declares war on Canada, using Alaska, Greenland, navy & airforce, to seal-off our country from ALL trade, so the butchery cannot have any help from anybody. 2026, looks-like, now ).
Russia takes the losses, due to ego/ideology, & China only has economic-costs of it,
but the future tilting-of-the-playing-field is fundamentally to China’s advantage, when the East vs West beatdown in WW3 goes live.
With Trump’s 2026 butchering of TrueNATO, Russia is going to be rampaging Europe, with no help whatsoever from the Americas, & doing-so with China’s backing.
Strategic elegance, China definitely demonstrates, in this investment, of theirs…

It absolutely is true that she backed Netanyahu, & that cost her significant support.
I don’t know why, but she did.
Losing the country, however, because of that … doesn’t help the Palestinians.
NEITHER candidate was good for them!!
Trump’s Gaza converted into a resort … isn’t good for them, either!
Maybe, possibly, she could have been got to see the light, on that issue: I don’t know.
The genocide in the US is going to make Gaza’s genocide look … like a civilized sunday picnic.
Trump’s nearly there, all he needs now is the Insurrection Act, & then he can activate his de-naturalization law, to remove citizenship from all the Democrats, & then they all get ICE’d.
Netanyahu’s war against the lives of Palestinians is going to be tiddlywinks, compared with Trump’s war against the hated “woke”, within the US.
Not tens-of-thousands, but millions, will die, in that, soon-enough.
