All according to plan

My friend Glenn Reynolds, who also has an excellent Substack you may want to subscribe to, just released a piece called Civilizational Jenga. The main focus of it was the Colorado Supreme Court’s foolish decision to pull Trump’s access to the ballot in Colorado over his supposed “insurrection” on January 6, 2021.
Setting aside the fact that a large percentage of the country, myself included, doesn’t believe the Jan 6. riot was an “insurrection,” it puts the cart before the horse. Trump has yet to be put on trial for insurrection.
For a handful of leftwing judges (and yes, they’re all Democrats) to just arbitrarily decide that he committed insurrection without him being convicted of it at a trial is not much different than deciding he committed murder without proving it at a trial. It’s an obvious attempt to misuse the court system for political reasons and if it were to stick and Trump were to become the nominee, it would practically demand that Republicans pull the same dirty trick against Joe Biden. Does it seem like a healthy precedent for political parties to be trying to win elections by default by illegitimately kicking their potential opponents off the ballot? No, it does not.
This column is not going to attempt to litigate Trump’s various court cases and rule on which ones may be justified and which ones may be political, but there is a very good reason that Americans have diligently avoided charging former presidents with crimes. That’s because it’s inevitably going to be highly controversial, polarizing and it’s dangerous to a Republic for a political party to believe that the only way they can get justice is to be in charge.

There’s no wall at the border.. so there’s one big one.
Uhh.....
The fiat green-inked TP we use for exchange is a “load-bearing wall”. That’s gonna fall soon... tic... tock...
One more big one; Famine, the 3rd horse of the Apocalypse. We’ve had Pestilence, War, now Famine is next, then, Death.

I'm arguing with a Ukie cheerleader over on another thread that stealing Russian money that's been frozen in the Western financial systems is a REALLY REALLY BAD idea.
He seems to think that land and liquid assets are the same thing.
Load bearing walls.
Like the walls of education, home ownership, morality, entertainment, business, politics, the economy, our national defense, border walls, and a hundred other essential American walls.
Forget it Jake. These walls have all crumbled and are falling down at an astonishing pace.
The demographic avalanche we are undergoing will do the trick in time without the hundred other issues that are plaguing us.
What an amazing title.
I thought about this 14 years ago.
I had determined that the USA institution is to well entrenched to fall to the Marxists.
I may have been mistaken.
History and human nature seem to indicate that fat, comfortable and entertained folks will tolerate any political enormity as long as they can remain fat, comfortable and entertained as it happens. So watch the obesity rate and especially the obesity rate of the poor for an indication that our unprecedented societal conditions are changing.

And I was just thinking about walls, in that
Ingenuity is the inventor of opportunity...
because...
When there’s a [stone]wall, there’s a way!
Remember when the Kotel sang, “Crying”?
I was alright for a while, I could smile for a while
Then I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight
When you stopped to say, “Hello”
You wished me well, you couldn’t tell
That *I’d* been crying over *you*
Crying over you
then you said, “So long”
Left me standing all alone
Alone and crying,
Crying, crying, crying
It’s hard to understand
That the touch of your hand
Can start me crying
I thought that I was over you
But it’s true, so true
I love you even more than I did before
But darling what can I do?

Here’s a page with the quote from Josephus about the pillar of stone:
And while not the focus of that page, a popular interpretation is that the monument in question is the Great Pyramid...
... you know, of “Kufu”. And how many opinions and theories are out there about what is was it used for, and how was it built, on and on?
People aren’t only amazed by the ingenuity of the builders (especially because modern man can’t figure the thing out), they keep coming up with ingenious ideas for its construction and operational usage and capacity.
It never ends.

Sooo, what it looks like to me is that the Pyramid of Kufu — the one Wonder of the Ancient World still standing — has been operating non-stop, just as intended from the outset.
An ingenuity-generator, because what’s in a name?
The language of the place named for being the origin of the Sun sez...

A long while back I got the simple idea to de-Babel the languages, and I got right in.
Kind of like that “Aha Moment” of first light.
Most people don’t see any need to pay this stuff any attention, which is why it stays out of the hands of those who would abuse it.*
Genesis 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
“How Many Load-Bearing Walls Have to Come Down Before America Collapses?”
>>>
The line “What’s up, Doc?” was added by director Tex Avery for this film. Avery explained later that it was a common expression in Texas where he was from, and he did not think much of the phrase. But when this short was screened in theaters, the scene of Bugs calmly chewing a carrot, followed by the nonchalant “What’s Up, Doc?”,
went against any 1940s audience’s expectation of how a rabbit might react to a hunter and caused complete pandemonium in the audience,
bringing down the house in every theater.

I think there is only one wall left...
But that wall doesn’t come down...
It goes up and away with all the believers.
AKA “The Restrainer”.
All I know is that the D party deserves a tidal wave of retribution for what they’ve done and what they’re currently trying to do to Trump and to us.
It’s scary
It’s already too late. Put on your hard hats.
Trump and his 2015-today has destroyed the load bearing wall that was the R vs D Con..
The Swamp R team co owns and filled the Swamp in DC and its 50 swamp tributaries, just as much as the Swamp D team..
The R team was infiltrated by Trump and it began to show itself as a Swamp that needed to lose as much as the D team..
Both of their collapses will actually save America..
That’s what draining the swamp and obliterating the Deep State is supposed to do..
Collapse the crooked system and destroy their temple
The reserve currency will last until another entity becomes more reliable than the US which isn’t saying much. With the corruption in the BRICS, for example, no one is going any where for a long while.
