European countries should simply either block or tax the parasitic US big tech companies that insist on violating their laws and roiling their internal affairs. Promote local competition. You don’t need these toxic, retrograde companies.

For the record, any assertions that current concerns are just for the “next four years” are fully misguided. We are on a path to permanently breaking existing systems; any fixes will come in building new ones. Prepare for that work, which will take the rest of your life.

Small bit of advice: those telling you something is a “distraction” are often projecting their own limited understanding of the bigger picture onto what they see. This Canada stuff is real; but look at it in terms of effects, not necessarily 100% literally.

📄NEW: "What To Do When There Is Nothing To Be Done"

1/Back in 2015, Alexksandr Dugin played a key role in brokering an agreement between Putin and Erdogan. His ultimate goal is to place the entire Arabian peninsula under Turkiye's sphere of influence. Excerpt from a piece of mine from 2017; links below.

2/"The People Behind Russia’s Dangerous Intentions for the US and Europe" While Dugin is just one of many places to look for insights on the Russian mindset, his 'Foundations of Geopolitics' may offer insights about the future of Syria and the Levant.

November 5 was the day the mainspring of US democracy failed. Today is the day when people will begin to fully realize it. Hold on. It's gonna be a wild ride.

Q: “What is Musk’s role? Who is actually in charge in terms of who you’re actually negotiating with?”

Jeffries: “That’s a good question, and I don’t have a great answer for you on that right now.”

Press conference, just now. 🤦

📄 NEW: "The American Meltdown Begins"
Elon Musk is now running our government, and is executing an agenda that is against our national interests. But many have not yet awakened to the reality that American democracy has been fatally compromised.

As "Trump" mulls replacing Hegseth with DeSantis, it's worth remembering that DeSantis was the Musk/Thiel nominee before they cut a deal with Trump, upon realizing DeSantis couldn't win. The goal here is a decapitation strike at DoD, in fulfillment of Putin's demands.

📄 NEW: Will Elon Musk and Mike Johnson use their influence and power to bankrupt the United States? Republicans who aren't on board with a global catastrophe must prepare to block them.

No one is coming to save us.
Brace for impact.

Anyone still not seeing that Musk is carrying out a Project Russia / Duginist agenda to accelerate American collapse is either dim, on a delusional dose of hopium.
