Gleiwitz incident - Wikipedia

Normally I'd say this is conspiracy brainrot, but Trump is an average man with dellusions of genius, needing to be the smartest person in the room.

He'd think if a false flag served Germany in 1939, he'll use it as well.

Once anyone learns about Markov chains, LLM's are exposed for what they are.
They something astonishingly simple applied in a convoluted manner using brute force.

A parlour trick, really.

That's not a huge risk anymore.

The Danes jaikbroke the F-35.

The risk now is how hackable is the F-35?

If there's a kill switch, that means there's a deliberate back door, on top of exploits discovered and yet to be discovered.

World Cup 2026: Iranian sports minister says country will not play in tournament Iran is not in a position to participate in the 2026 World Cup, says the country's Minister of Sports and Youth.

What a pillock.
YESTERDAY Iran announced they weren't going.

The senile old moron is trying to save face, by lying.

Without a massive public upswell the forces presume a majority are apathetic or in favour.

They will support the regime.

He's a performer, a studied persona, a caricature of a clichΓ©. He says whatever his research staff determines has the greast reach, draws the most viewers, brings in the highest revenue and maxizes profit.

It's business.

He is on a stage, raised above the crowd ... podium applies. The lectern is a mere component of the podium.

These are hidden delay times of a private health care system.

That destroys an oft usd argument against public health care: wait times.

Public health care costs less per capita than private when all-in.

Wait times obvious in public, now appear in private, and you still pay.

Yes, but there had to be massive, nationwide, continuous protests. Think double No Kings every single day day (10 million), surge to 30-40 million on weekends

Exhaust the regime's ability to respond, force the military deployment on the streets and turn them by sheer numbers.

This is the only way.

Now?
This has always been the plan, with ALL homeless.

The regime needed a starting point, trial runs. VA helping veterans seem innocuous.

MAHA "health" camps were promised: homeless, drug addicts, mental illness cases, those using SSRI's etc.

An ever expanding convenient definition.

... a better chance next election with a new party, hoping that new party chooses to take them on as a candidate.

Floor crossing's been done by over 300 MP's, the first in 1868.

It's part of the parliamentary culture.

... an important campaign promise not kept, leadership out of touch and going in the wrong direction.

Floor crossers usually talk to family as well as others in their riding.

Sometime's it's crass politics. The MP knows they've lost their riding in the next election. They have ...

That's what I like about free elections, democracy, and an open society.

If you don't like something, you can get into politics and change it.

Floor crossing is rarely done on a whim, in a fit of pique, or in a vacuum.

Those who do it feel betrayed by the party they've given their lives to,

He'll have an easier time... but not in Canada.
His refugee and permanent resident status are revoked, and all appeals are dismissed.

Since Canada shares criminal record data with the US, he won't be let in there either.

A sample of a Canadian Election Ballot.
It is black with a column of white rectangles with candidate names in bold and party affiliation below in smaller letters.
The second column are white circles, where the voter makes their mark.

Title: Canadian Election Ballot
Candidate Column:
Cabot, John
Political Affiliation / Appartenance politique
Cartier, Jacques
Appartenance politique / Political Affiliation
de Vercheres, Madeleine
Independent / Independent
Secord, Laura

Instructions to the right in the clear area:
You can X, check, or line, or you can fill the circle.
Marking more than one circle or marking outside the circle spoils your ballot.

About "putting it to the voters": If everyone remembers their grade-school civics course, you vote for your MP, not the party they belong to.

look at thr ballot sample.
Note the name is ephasized.
Not the party / political affiliation

Authority?

He has ICE, DOJ, all the enforcement agencies of the federal government, the armed services, and enough of the population behind him, if the armed services sit out.

That's his authority.

Americans waited too long.
This now has a butcher's bill whether he goes or not.

The US has bigger issues than CUSMA.

Trump is effectively a dictator now.

If Democrats are going to win in November he's going to interfere or stop the election.
If the election runs and Democrats win he'll declare it invalid.

Next: civil war or dictatorship.

He has a personal militia: ICE.

US sank an Iranian warship and didn't rescue survivors. Is this legal in war? The law of naval warfare sets out permissions and protections for combatants, civilians and neutral actors engaged in conflict at sea.

Thank you!

Here is an interesting read.

The armed/unarmed doesn't appear the be an issue, and insofar as stopping and rescuing from a submarine, it's likely that the US Navy gave the location to the Sri Lankan Navy.

It's an opinion until it's decided in a court.
