BREAKING: War Secretary Pete Hegseth has named @elonmusk to co-lead Project Meridian, a major new Pentagon effort to study and shape the future of warfare.
Hegseth called the three co-leaders some of America’s best minds.
Key details:
• Co-led by Elon Musk, Palmer Luckey and Newt Gingrich
• Led within the department by CTO Emil Michael
• Will bring together private-sector leaders and military experts
• Will map the future of wars, military domains and emerging technologies
• Will identify the areas America must lead and dominate
• Findings are expected within 120 days
• A full public rollout will follow
Elon has repeatedly solved engineering challenges others considered impossible. This is exactly where he belongs, working on the hardest problems with enormous national importance.

In before this and that on a Admin level. Nothing is being done that is concrete and legislative. That is the problem because the next Administration can easily decouple whatever Pres. Trump implemented.
In short, both the HOR and Senate are worthless bodies. Wasted two years, why do dems make great long-term gains when they have two branches but Repubs can never even roll-back the legislation that dems did along with not making great long-term gains at all in their time of power? Tax breaks, LOL. ACA, too scary to roll-back. I am done voting for these wimps and "lessor of two evils". Bring on the socialists, all Repubs are doing is just giving lip service while waiting "for their time" to not make hard decisions of rolling-back fundamentals programs that are decaying scarcity. Repubs need to go the way of the Whigs, limited government/anti-globalist liberty or die citizens need to focus on a new strategy from the representation we vote for.

Because the Democrats, for most of 70 years, has the vast majority of the Media on their side. Most politicians feared the Media more than the opposite politicians.
That has slowly changed in the last 30 years. Now there is some competition in the media. Now, Conservatives have enough media to get much of their message out.

So what is your conclusion about media narratives driving voting habits of weak minds? Are you going to gut the 1st Amendment?
Rush Limbaugh did not change jack squat. He was very entertaining and popular in certain circles that went against those mainstream media narratives but still resided in a niche echo chamber when all was said and done. Your media excuse does not solve the fundamental problem that universal suffrage wrought.
Usury and compound interest (Aided by cheap labor and outsourcing to create optimized shareholders' value) vs. people who vote to tap into the treasury for subsidization/economic social "equity". Both are perverted but both rule the direction of power hungry individuals that play against that greed/materialistic pursuits. The US is not a self-government experiment anymore, its a grifting economic zone on the global stage wrapped in a perverted hegemony that goes against what God deems good.

“shaping” consists of preparatory or strategic activities that set the conditions for future success before a decisive battle or conflict occurs.
