Oligarcha in Russia had to win an auction for the various means of production be it mining, energy, defense etc. Basically Putin still held the lease and had the power to fire/imprison or worse.
Likewise, Tesla was the highest bidder in the Trump oligarch auction so Helen's analogy is very good.

The trouble with Kennedy is that the good ideas are entangled with lunacy. In recent months I've researched sugar and wheat and processed foods and the history behind them - these troubles started a long time ago. But Kennedy seems to be like Trump - whatever someone tells him he goes with, so the vaccine fear is something that was whispered in his ear and it lodged (in the hole left behind by the worm). Fluoride is another one of those topics; dentists across America will be tending a lot more children with cavities as their parents continue to feed sugary foods and the fluoride that strengthens tooth enamel goes away.

They're gutting the NPS park rangers right now. There is a group preparing to sue on behalf of the probationary jobs (two years in or less) but I don't know if there is anyone for the full-time vested staff yet.

Yes, Hrothgar. The chances are very slim for RFK Jr to manage to prioritise the health of children over the profits of the wealthy food production people. We all know whose side Trump is on in that fight.

Donuel, I've been comparing the Russian takeover of their country to Trump's efforts. (Note: I haven't studied that history in depth so most of my comments are my own observations.)

The Russians did not have a democracy and their revolution, although it had good intentions, was taken over by a different set of oligarchs who then suppressed their people and focused on their own power and money-making aims. Russian people have limited access to facts and information and anyone who tries to rebel against the people in power are suppressed by whatever means available.

The US is still a democratic country with a long history of democracy and the political and social structures to reinforce that. American people have access to facts and information, and the right to choose which information they want to follow, hence this blip in history where people chose to follow Trump and his hype.

It would be a lot more difficult to stage an American coup than it was to stage and then redirect the Russian revolution towards a different and equally dangerous oligarchy.

I think there is hope for the US, but people need to stand up for their country and defend their democratic rights.

This is not the first time questionable and illegal closures of gov. agencies have occurred. It happened on Nixon's watch. The right has always had a wishlist to eliminate all regulatory laws and agencies that are watchdogs against inhumanity, corruption, and crime.
They say they want a government so small they can drown it in a bathtub. Trump says he wants America to return to 1870. THIS WAS THE GILDED AGE. There were 3 to six billionaires back then. You have heard of Carnegie, Rockafeller, Gould, etc.

The unlimited freedom for wealthy criminals to pursue any corruption for profit is indeed - limitless. With the precedent of WWII it is possible while unbelievable that dehumanization and eradication of expendable citizens for slavery or slaughter could rise again.

Corporations are part of the process. Remember the German Farber corp was only four miles away from Auschwitz. Tesla, Meta, and Amazon have already fallen into line. The stakes are higher than you would want to believe. Yet here we are again.

MaJoC, the health of children is important. The manbaby's health - not so much, IMHO. And he is (supposedly) an adult making (supposedly) adult choices about his diet - or lack thereof. (Speaking of the manbaby, I watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit? again this week. Does Baby Herman remind you of anyone?)

Earlier this week I watched a TV documentary presented by Dr Chris Van Tulleken

That BBC article raises similar issues to those raised in that documentary and another one called What are we Feeding our Kids? which is referred to in the article.

There are a lot of chemicals and compounds in ultra processed food and a lot of the key people in the food production industry are in the business of making as much money as possible and are doing everything they can to avoid being regulated, very much like the resistance of the tobacco industry.

Donuel, pesticides are probably a big part of the problem, but ultra processed foods might be the elephant in the room.

So, RFK Jr may actually make a positive difference to the health of children. But then again, it depends how focused he remains on that issue and whether he can in fact make a positive difference or whether it just gets lost in the rest of his noise.

Trump has purged the artists who were on the board of the Kennedy Center and replaced them with his cronies. The only culture that will come out of there for the next four years will be mold and fungus.

The Great Kennedy Center Purge of 2025. This is from a Substack account called Closer to the Edge.
For years, Trump steered clear of the Kennedy Center like a vampire avoiding a crucifix. The annual Kennedy Center Honors, the Mark Twain Prize—those events were not his scene. Too much culture, too many people who could read without moving their lips. He was a man who thought steak should be well-done and that "Citizen Kane" was about having a really big house. High art and Trump mixed about as well as bath salts and a Florida Wal-Mart.

But now? Now he owns the place.

In a move so brazen it would make a banana republic dictator blush, Trump has appointed himself chairman of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. That’s right—America’s supposed “cultural beacon” is now officially a stage for Trump’s vanity projects, a golden toilet for the arts. If there was ever a symbol for America’s rapid descent into an intellectually malnourished hellscape, this is it.

Pete McMartin in the Vancouver Sun, 3rd February 2025…

”With the shocking messages about his plans for Gaza and the Palestinians, coupled with his ongoing threats of tarrifs and threats to making Canada the 51st state, Pete McMartin of the Vancouver Sun captures what most Canadians are feeling right now. Farewall “My American Cousin”.

“Goodbye, America.

It’s been nice knowing you.
Goodbye New York, and your Jewish delicatessens with corned beef sandwiches stacked as high as your skyline.

Goodbye Detroit, my boyhood neighbour, and so long to Tiger Stadium, the Detroit Institute of Arts and Motown.

Goodbye Bellingham, Seattle and Portland — how I’ll miss my Cascadian cousins with our shared Pacific sensibilities. And while I’m at it, goodbye to the cheap gas and shoreline cottages of Point Roberts, America’s appendix dangling just below the border not a mile from me. What was once so close has never been so far.

Goodbye Stag Leap’s Pinot Noir, Maker’s Mark bourbon, and Hebrew National hotdogs. My tastebuds mourn.

Goodbye to the cowards on both sides of the border who have demonstrated that whatever fidelity to democratic ideals they profess to have extends only so far as their self-interest. They should get a real job, say, in a chain gang.

Goodbye to anyone, again on both sides of the border, who bends the knee to Trump, rather than standing up to him, as any self-respecting person would and should, and telling him to piss off.

Goodbye to a culture that demands we bend the knee.

Goodbye languid vacations in Maui and Palm Springs. My next winter vacation will be in a sunny climate other than any America can offer, and preferably in a country the U.S. has treated as disdainfully as mine. I’ll have more than a few to pick from.

Most painful of all, goodbye to my American friends, some of whom I have known all my life, and some of whom I’ve collected along the way. I can cross your border but no longer wish to: Your Narcissist-in-Chief has decreed that my countrymen and I have the choice of becoming destitute, vassals or enemies. I’m choosing the latter

Meanwhile, your silence and the silence of all Americans in response to this aggression leaves me disheartened. That silence speaks volumes. I — we — have heard you loud and clear how little our friendship as a country means to you.

Goodbye to the image of America I once held dear — the America of Miles Davis and Cannonball Adderley and James Brown, of George Gershwin and Aaron Copeland, of Norman Mailer and Kurt Vonnegut and Mark Twain, of Martin Luther King and Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Goodbye to what I envied as the country that prided itself on encouraging unparalleled innovation in science, art and business. Any good that remains of it has been overshadowed by rapacity, cheap commercialism and egotism.

Goodbye to that ever-present sense of inferiority I once had when considering the relationship between Canada and America. What doubt I had of our own greatness is gone, and in its place is a certitude that Canada is superior to the U.S. in all the ways that matter. I look across the border now and see a violent, burgeoning autocracy now ever on the edge of civil war, and a population that is either cheering on this new brutalism or quaking in fear from it.

Goodbye to tepid patriotism. If Trump has done us any favour, it is awakening us to the fact that we can no longer take Canada’s existence for granted, that the bad actors in the world have begun to look covetously upon our improbably vast land that is laden with riches, that they want those riches and that niceness as a national character is not enough to dissuade them from taking them. Schoolyard bullies don’t want to be buddies. They want your lunch.

And after a long era of living a geopolitical life of convenient economic and military subservience, we’ve awakened to the fact that we are going to have to relearn our independence and fight any way we can to keep it.

Goodbye to living under the American nuclear umbrella, or any form of American hegemony. Goodbye to negotiation, wheedling, genuflecting or feel-good hands-across-the-border fairy tales. The American government has shown that established alliances mean nothing to it now, and so cannot be trusted. In Trump’s new world order, all the old verities are off the table, so let us make new ones.

Do levy tariffs, as we have promised to do, and do grit our way through the inevitable economic pain that will come. Re-arm as if we were on a war footing, because we are on a war footing. Conduct the mother of all public relation campaigns that let Americans know how badly they are perceived in the world, that they’ve gone from the shining city on the hill to just another empire with the same tired territorial ambitions as Russia or China. Do anything to impress upon Americans that their government is without real friends or allies, and that they, in essence, are alone.

So, goodbye America, it’s been nice knowing you, but I don’t know you anymore. I’ve reached that point in our relationship where any admiration I have had for you has been replaced by a new, angry resolve, which is: I won’t consort with the enemy”

And in case you are wondering who the other ghost is, referred to in the article which Sandra linked to:

"While Kushner was Trump's ghost, Netanyahu's ghost was Bezalel Smotrich, the leader of the Religious Zionism Party and Israel's finance minister. Smotrich and his bloc of support keep Netanyahu in power and Smotrich, who controls the country's budget, is able to ensure the Jewish settlements in the West Bank, widely regarded under international law as illegal, are well funded.

"Without Smotrich, Netanyahu does not have the numbers to remain prime minister. This wouldn't just mean a loss of power but it would open him to the full suite of legal pain awaiting him over criminal charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust."

The article was written by John Lyons whose factual and strategic analysis is always worth reading or watching on Oz TV.

Two ghosts could be heard when Donald Trump announced his Gaza 'plan' Donald Trump's plan to turn Gaza into "the Riviera of the Middle East" is one of the most radical ideas from the White House for many years.

To understand how it came about, it's worth considering some comments made to a forum at one of the most prestigious universities in the United States in February last year.

It was to academics and students of Harvard's Kennedy School in Massachusetts that Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, took part in a discussion about international events.

But what he did, in fact, was float the very idea that Trump has presented in recent days as his new policy for Gaza. Both Kushner and Trump have had careers as property developers, which may well explain the real estate element to this attempt at a shift in foreign policy. (read on)

.... And, as someone has pointed out in the Comments on an ElReg article (which I can't locate atm):

Add in replacing the humans in their Praetorian Guards with gun-bearing robots, and you can see why fürers the world over are showing interest in AI.

If the Preatorian guard are caught between Musk, Trump, and the people, Shakespeare has several versions of that scenario.

US founding fathers tried to devise a system to avoid a Giliad.
They knew it wasn't perfect.

> "Hmm.. why let our enemies ever get to vote
> against us?"

I can't remember where I've seen this meme, but, to paraphrase:

The Gruesome Twosome's end game is to stir up an insurrection against themselves. Once that happens, ManBaby can declare martial law.

And *that* is where "just one more push" came from. All he need do then is keep the Praetorian Guard onside.

This is the Republic of Gilead, and you're welcome to it.

The best you have ever said, good job dave.


The founding fathers knew the evil and frail minds of some men and devised a system to balance goodness with other equal powers.
Republicans have control of every branch of government and intentionally are destroying the balance of our original Constitution.
They are saying this is their best and only chance to gain and keep control.

This is not the time to tune out
