There's a lot to talk about with this painting. Techniques, color choices, the tulip on left of the arrangement, obviously dying, a foreboding for the older gentleman in the chair, the sniper just off canvas being watched by several counter-sniper teams doing fuck-all to prevent him from attempting to take out the older gentleman in the chair.

101 A Bigger Grand Canyon is a 1998 painting by David Hockney consisting of 60 canvases (in a 12x5 arrangement) that produce one large (7.4m-wide) picture. It hangs in the National Gallery of Australia, which bought it in 1999 for $4.6 million.

It is almost a 1 to 1 painting.

689 Obviously that roof should've had some law enforcement on it but I have a question. That building is privately owned, can the owner refuse law enforcement access?

Legally I don't think the government can force a private entity to host law enforcement personnel. If that is the case then it was probably a known security weakness.

120 Partial list of Trump's "violent" statements from DU:

July 2017 — Trump encourages law enforcement to be rough/violent with potential offenders, opines at a rally (publicly) for police to "Please don't be too nice."
October 2019 — Trump asks if migrants can be “[shot] in the legs” and asks for a cost estimate for filling the water where migrants cross with alligators, among other things.
May 2020 — Trump posts on Twitter "when the looting starts, the shooting starts" in response to George Floyd protests.
June 2020 — Trump wants George Floyd protesters outside of the White House shot. "Can't you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something?"
September 2020 — During a Fox “News” interview, Trump praises the law enforcement extra-judicial killing of Michael Reinoehl in Portland, stating “there has to be retribution”.
October 2023 — Trump mocks Paul Pelosi who was violently attacked a year prior, tacitly condoning the violence.
October 2023 — Trump targets Tish James for violence stating “I don’t think the people of this country are going to stand for it … This is a disgrace. And you ought to go after this attorney general.”

“ [Last night] I threw it out. I think it would be very bad if I got up and started going wild about how horrible everybody is and how corrupt and crooked, even if it’s true. Had this not happened, we had a speech that was pretty well set that was extremely tough. Now, we have a speech that is more unifying.

I’ve been fighting a group of people that I considered very bad people for a long time, and they’ve been fighting me, and we’ve put up a very good fight,” Trump said. “We had a very tough speech, and I threw it out last night. I said I can’t say these things after what I’ve been through.”

Hmmm. Not sure I like where this is going.

201 188 If, as is probable, this was an intentional "security failure," then DOCTOR Jill oughta be very nervous. Because Killer Beavis failed miserably, and now Brandon is (somehow) even less likely to make it past the finish line in November.

The two remaining options for the regime at this point are to let Trump win and go into containment mode, or go for the big play - Kirov Option. Whack Brandon, pin it on MAGA, cancel elections, and kick off a three to five year wave of blood soaked political repression.

206 So...I have some thoughts on the politics of things.

The contrast of images between Trump raising his fist and Biden staring off in the middle distance and mumbling nonsense is just too great. There was already an effort to pull $90 million in funding of a pro-Biden Super PAC. Immediately after the shooting, Democrats pulled all of their advertising.

American political parties have been itching for an event with the effect of Watergate for decades. Iran-Contra, Bill Clinton's sex life, Iraq, Benghazi, Trump's ice cream habits, the whole political ecosystem has been looking for events that could cut through the political loop and into the broader culture. Biden's debate performance was top-level of what the politics tended to get. Influential, but not paradigm shifting. Trump's assassination attempt and his rising after it to Fight cuts through it all.

The D Party, which was already in disarray, has to be in shambles now. They know there's no way they can win this without cheating at a level so massive that even DU goes, "Whoa." There's talk of redirecting money from Biden to senate candidates.

I have been black-pilled, but...maybe not anymore.

A Trump presidency won't do as much as his greatest fans wish it will.

However, with the combination of Trump not having to fight his own party out in the open because of Russian collusion, Loper, and the continued erosion of GOPe power within the party at every single level, I suspect more progress made under a second Trump term than the first.

Especially at the state level if down-ballot is going to be as massive as I expect. State level is where cheating happens. State level is where cheating gets fixed.

the one I heard of was on 4Chan, but perhaps that gave the guy better protection ... he gave his name, but they can't prove it was him?

But that claim said they had the assassin in their sights for a minute or two, but were ordered not to shoot till he shot. So they saw him with a rifle taking aim ... ordered "don't shoot till he kills Trump", in essence. Because he got off 3-5 shots.

But that will maybe be confirmed by House Republicans, to ask if they get the right SS people in for questioning.

So I think it may have been a known weakness and they put a cop (or two) over there to keep an eye on things. People started telling the cop that someone is getting on the roof but as it was private property and there is nothing illegal about climbing on a roof he had to get authority from his higher up to enter the property.

My opinion is the owner of the property needs to come out and say clearly if they denied access to the property for law enforcement.

One way to slice through this painting is its masterful use of red-green complimentary colors and their multitude variations. Drilling down, the green grounds everything and gives rise to life blossoming in flowers, and in the case of Sir Webster being instrumental in establishing the Royal Opera House and the flowering of opera and ballet in post world war II England.

Another slice is the use of perpendicular and horizontal planes in opposition expressed in the translucent plexiglass curved chair and the plexiglass rectangular table that absorbs the floor color. Such tension in such simple shapes leave the man floating is space, temporal, while the opaque vase of flowers, steadfast, are enduring.

Oh yeah, would hang this masterpiece.

It was galactically stupid to try and replace Biden after the first debate with Trump.

It would be cosmically stupid to try and replace Biden now.

The RNC committee and President Trump have objected to this strongly, but the Milwaukee city assholes have blown them off. Because they want their little darlings to have "space to destroy" patriots.

And, in contrast, the Leftoids will have the Chicago 'free speech zone' several blocks away from the Pinko Fest. (Those of you hoping for a repeat of the Chicago '68 convention, fuggedaboutit: think instead of the Kerry/Boston DNC, where the Leftoids stayed obediently in a cattle pen quite a distance from the event.

The wildest scenario for retaining power may yet become their best option:

1) Force Biden to resign, making Harris president.
2) Absorb electoral thumping in November.
3) On eve of inauguration, nullify Biden's presidency and retroactively declare Trump president from Jan. 20, 2021 forward.
4) Nullify Trump's "third term" and his electors via 22A.
5) Install the runner-up.

334 They were never getting rid of Biden. It was too late and the process is wholly dependent on Biden himself. What they were hoping for was some kind of inducement or emolument to get him out. It wasn’t working. Grandpa thinks he can still safely drive the car.

When Reagan was shot, he jumped 22 points in the polls. He almost never lost that lead.

3+ months is a long time. But it’s going to be an eternity for Democrats. This is going to go all the way down the ticket. For the most part they don’t seem to be backing off their agenda and changing course on policy. That’s the only thing that might save a few of them. But they’re largely ideologues, thus that’s a bridge too far.

351 When Reagan was shot, he jumped 22 points in the polls. He almost never lost that lead.

3+ months is a long time. But it’s going to be an eternity for Democrats. This is going to go all the way down the ticket. For the most part they don’t seem to be backing off their agenda and changing course on policy. That’s the only thing that might save a few of them. But they’re largely ideologues, thus that’s a bridge too far.

Everything we "know" about this kid is subject to change. Initially there were suggestions it might not actually be him. It appears it was, but then it's uncanny how he resembles the guy who showed up at Trump's rally in 2016 with a weapon.

It's also odd everyone was naming another guy for the first few hours.

I know people don't like to hear this, but there was more than one LH Oswald, and it's very unlikely the fatal head shot was fired by him (it's possible any/all of his shots missed). It's also true Sirhan Sirhan didn't kill RFK.

As I've said, you can use the residency restriction as a way to deflect against someone like DeSantis or Rubio if you wanted to, but if you really wanted one of those two, Trump can quite easily get around it. I don't know if it will be one of those - I suspect no. But sort of a remarkable political turnaround for Rubio that he is now at least being considered.

Conspiracy by omission or commission - for the sake of the country, I'm leaning to the latter.

Just don't give the agents, the money, the time, etc and make it easy for someone to take advantage vs "no, we're actively planning the kill"...

Actual committed ideologues are only about ten percent of the population and roughly split evenly between right and left. A lot of the rich guys like Reid Hoffman or Soros funding this shit are also dweebs in actually doing anything themselves.

So, the hard core ideologue left is divided again between those seeking an actual frigging revolution/coup (antifa and the like) and those that view the Democratic party as the electoral path to socialism--sort of like the old Bolshie-Menshevik split. The Mensheviks are the ones that actual work with jobs/pension/wealth to lose in institutions if things go pear shaped. They are perfectly willing to launch legal coups, fund violent actions by others, have their judges/leos/and da's imprison innocent people, etc.

What the Mensheviks are not willing to do is throw down. The Bolshie wing is but not in power

This is really bad. The inmates are running the country, and I fear it’s going to take more than Trump losing the election to get rid of them.

She has been in for trump since day one. Sweet gift from her for the first day of the RNC.

Now I feel like I've been shot - in the gut. The timing is interesting. Not sure what to make of it. Is she trying to highlight it or bury it?

Well she does it right when the entire nation is distracted by the violence at the Trump rally, so she's obviously trying to hide it.

Highlight it. It's a boost for tRump during the convention!

Dear Jesus. The coup is still underway. The appointment of Jack Smith did not violate the Constitution. The traitors have not stopped. Including six on SCrOTUS.

Trump wisely took her off the gameboard in the wake of the attack to force her into Unity.

She has a platform and a voice whether we like it or not. He just brought her into the fold. She will look spineless whatever she chooses to do next but her best bet is definitely "unity".

Trump has been playing the game of politics since he came down the escalator. He's never been a bull in a china shop.

It's just that his vision of politics (coalitions to pursue policy goals supported by the voters) is very out of alignment with the vision of politics from those in politics (coalitions to pursue graft).

He's been trying to do the former in the face of an entire political class that sees politics as the latter.

592 554 Trump has been playing the game of politics since he came down the escalator. He's never been a bull in a china shop.

It's just that his vision of politics (coalitions to pursue policy goals supported by the voters) is very out of alignment with the vision of politics from those in politics (coalitions to pursue graft).

He's been trying to do the former in the face of an entire political class that sees politics as the latter.

No, it's a movie from the 70s about a man named Stuart Marshal. He grew up in a small coal mining town in West Virginia, where the mine owner owned the local police. When the company owner's n'er do well son killed Marshall's pregnant wife in a drunken hit-and-run, the local cops covered it up and then the company owner fired Marshal to tie off the loose ends.

After a night spent in contemplation, he took vengeance. He imposed Marshal's Law.
