12 >The Person Responsible for Trump's Third Assassination Trump is Trump Himself

13 "I mean, it's pretty rich given that Donald Trump's rhetoric led to January 6," he said. "And we know what Donald Trump's rhetoric leads to because we know many times over how his followers use violence in -- when they follow him."


I guess you missed where it was determined that Jan 6 with a democrat op that was practiced in Boston months in advance.

14 Yes, the process is the punishment as learned from the Left.

Also vandalism is graffiti art if it comes from the Left apparently.

15 They -- hold on to your seats -- excluded obvious cases of left-wing violence from the tallies but include drug dealers shooting each other if they happen to be white nationalists. The supposedly "libertarian" -- really corporate left-wing liberal -- CATO institute does not include 9/11 victims in the count.

All the violence coming from Aryan meth dealers is really making me re-think my traditional conservative pro-crime stance!

16 An arrest warrant has been issued for former FBI Director James Comey
.......

I suggest a 4:00am raid on his house.

17 Trump had it coming. Kirk had it coming. These are their 3rd grade excuses for their Leftist violence.

18 The Prosecution Project is asshoe.

19 They remain obsessed with Jan 6 like John Hinckley at a Jodi Foster film festival.

Totally not a cult.

So Donald Trump's call to be peaceful caused the Dem's false-flag Jan 6th violence...

27 I tried asking some lefties to name the last time someone on the right assassinated a leftwing pol.

The only answer they could come up with this millennium was Walz's boy who killed Walz's main in-party opponent after he claims Walz told him to do it.

The lefties claimed Vance Boelter was pro-life, so obviously he killed one pro-abortion Democrat while working for a different pro-abortion Democrat governor who he...didn't attempt to harm.

The effort was effective because the mainstream GOP leadership hated Sarah Palin and the Tea Party even more than the leftists did, so they helped to cancel them as much as they possibly could.

I think it depends on whether you mean they were positive BEFORE or AFTER sex with The One.

61 Another way the numbers were faked is that the compilers decided that any crime committed by a member of the Aryan Brotherhood - the notorious prison gang - qualified as "Right wing violence" because they had the magic word "Aryan" in their name. Even though they are just a pack of murderers and drug dealers who couldn't care less about political ideas.

62 You know conservatives are always doing drive bys in the ghetto.

63 When you control the dictionary…

It happens incredibly often. Government austerity is defined as spending more and raising taxes. Recessions are defined as when the economy was at its best. The end of a recession is defined as when it is most deep. Government-run price-controlled exchanges are defined as free markets.

Children are defined as up to age 26, which makes them a majority of entry-level workers, which means that children lose health care when jobs drop (usually from unspecified Leftist policies).

Much of it is deliberately hypocritical, as if defining abstinence as drinking more is an excuse for drinking more when abstinence fails.

64 The lefties claimed Vance Boelter was pro-life, so obviously he killed one pro-abortion Democrat while working for a different pro-abortion Democrat governor who he...didn't attempt to harm.

The MN pol was killed because she was the only Democrat to vote WITH Republicans to strip benefits from illegals.

A solid section of modern leftists explain away their violence because the Marxist revolution has taken a backseat, intellectually, to intersectionality.

Intersectionality demands victims and oppressors.

If Trump is a victim of violence, then he deserves political power.

Therefore, he cannot be a victim of violence. Therefore, all attempts on his life were actually done by conservatives who are oppressors.

“Boy Who Cried Wolf” Effect: Why Trump Is A Perfect Conspiracy Theory Subject...The Trump administration’s steady stream of false or misleading statements about general events only creates more confusion, Robertson said.

lol the third "assassination attempt" is just the media trying to make a guy who tripped on a stage in into a martyr again.

No one cares much about this. "Meh, someone tried to shoot Trump again." Even Trump supporters don't seem more concerned about a ballroom.

We knew it was a hoax when it was revealed that the shooter is a black man that was taken in alive.

Probably just a coincidence that when his campaign was hitting rock bottom there was this "assassination attempt" where a bullet barely grazed him and now when his popularity is hitting rock bottom there is another one.

123 Yeah, I know. It's proper to let people self surrender if you believe they will. Rarely an option given to our side.

134 Goldman's one of the dumber non-entities the Dems have these days, which is saying something. Not AOC or Murray or Biden stupid, but not very bright.

That analysis of the "political violence" "studies" by two ridiculous unserious organizations is, as is the norm these days, correct but pathetically weak and understated. It's to the point where if I come across a "conservative" (stupid term) analysis of anything that even comes close to eviscerating this kind of crap in appropriately strong, vituperative terms, and follows the implications of the idiotic distortion they are destroying, it's memorable.

Actually can't think of one lately.

135 As usual the dem/media are all on the same play book.. It's Trump's own fault because of his hateful rhetoric and Chaos...

Trump repeatedly called for peace. The crowd was peaceful until the Capitol Police fired tear gas and concussion grenades into them. They opened the doors and let the crowd enter and most of them were reasonably civilized, other than the left wing agitators that entered and broke windows.

The only people that died that day were at the hands of Capitol Police who shot and beat unarmed women.

He'd have had to held the gun backwards, pressed it against his chest, and pulled the trigger for that to be possible.

245 Trump repeatedly called for peace. The crowd was peaceful until the Capitol Police fired tear gas and concussion grenades into them. They opened the doors and let the crowd enter and most of them were reasonably civilized, other than the left wing agitators that entered and broke windows.

The only people that died that day were at the hands of Capitol Police who shot and beat unarmed women.

And Dems are always forgetting who gets the "benefit of doubt" as to whether they were actually invoking violence. Because "Peacefully ... make your voices heard" SHOLD NOT be received by as short a shrift as Dems who prefer to let that stuff blow right by them like a strong wind.

Posted by: Heroq

That is Schlae's argument in part but it ignores some wider considerations. Basically the reparations scheme where the US banks by loans backstopped Germany who used those loans to pay Britain and France which in turn paid the US broke down. Wall Street drop was a minor influence. And Smoot Hawley had little if anything to do with the breakdown of US trade. And only fractions of a percent of GDP decline.

It was a financial crisis based on WWI and Versailles aggravated by factors like overinvestment into things like electrification and power grids. Financialization and globalization can never actually eliminate real economic losses. It can only paper them over with bad debt.

Unless the party or his counsel is going to destroy evidence, discovery is invaluable. If they're claiming some kind of privilege, eventually a privilege log will have to be produced, and the judge can review the allegedly privileged documents and rule whether they have to be produced.

If they do destroy evidence and get caught, they'll get hit with a spoliation claim. If the attorney was complicit, he'll find himself before the bar association.

Posted by: Harry Vandenburg

Feds tightening money by requiring more reserves caused the bank the fail and yes, I agree with Friedman. The Fed as being run by representatives of the top banks at the time were terrified about the Trans Atlantic defaults on debt payments from UK, France, and Germany.

But instead of loosening credit or some other mechanism to fix or ameliorate the issues for the big banks, they tightened across the US on regular banks at exactly the wrong time.

The truth is that these large American banks should have never been engaged in foreign loans to sovereign countries in the first place.

Same issues arose in the 80's and early 90's. Only investment banks which can be allowed to fail should be involved in such risky measures.

The rhetoric and predictions behind climate change "science" change so haphazardly, it's a sure sign that the entire field of study is fraudulent. If the manufactured hysteria is not enough to clue people in, the failed predictions of Al Gore should do the trick.

Former Vice President Al Gore warned a Hollywood audience this week that a "Gulf Stream collapse" could occur within 25 years, leading to an abrupt and devastating new Ice Age.

Mr. Gore, now 78, appeared at the inaugural Sustainability in Entertainment Honors event, co-hosted by The Hollywood Reporter and the Sustainable Entertainment Alliance at Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles.

331 5 Trump repeatedly called for peace. The crowd was peaceful until the Capitol Police fired tear gas and concussion grenades into them. They opened the doors and let the crowd enter and most of them were reasonably civilized, other than the left wing agitators that entered and broke windows.

The only people that died that day were at the hands of Capitol Police who shot and beat unarmed women.

Well, bear in mind that after the Kirk assassination, the last of the sane functional adult leftists abandoned the left and either became politically homeless or went full-on "far-right" (i.e., moderate) so all that's left now are manbaby/womanbaby toddlers who throw tantrums when they don't get their way. To them, being told "no" is violence, and standing up to their crybullying is genocide.

346 Did someone say Clitzilla?

347 "Imports in 1929 were only 4.2% of the U.S. GNP, and exports were only 5.0%. Monetarists, such as Milton Friedman, who emphasized the central role of the money supply in causing the depression, considered the Smoot–Hawley Act to be only a minor cause of the Great Depression in the United States."

And the truth is world trade was declining anyway due to the breakdown of international banks and sovereign debt crisis. And that cause was the huge wastage of money in WWI by warring powers. All the carry trade on sovereign debt did was to delay the impact until it was apparent that these debts could not and would not be repaid.

But the Fed is what made it worse into a Depression. Prior panics over matters (see the 1870's banking crisis over France losing to Prussia causing the panic in the US) or the later 1890's panic in the US based on European bank failures, provided the impetus in part for a US Fed Reserve. But in a crisis intended for the Fed to act, they failed the test.

Maybe you need to hire an actor to replace yourself in front of the screen and then hire an editor. That way you can ensure your directorial vision is complete until your epics require a producer at least.

He can't bring his former glory and grift back no matter how hard he tries. The new religion du jour of the "elites" is AI, and their shiny new god demands much power, much more than any fake and gay "green energy" scam is capable of providing. The climate doomsday cult conflicts with the needs of the new cult, so Gates et al dropped it like a hot potato. Besides, didn't we save the environment when everyone started driving EVs?

That and more! I keep insisting that he's just as bad as Jessica but in a different way. He doesn't constantly cite polls and he's not as obnoxious, so you have to listen a little more closely to get what he's actually saying. It's always empty mush and his both-sides crap drives me nuts. His performance the other day was just another example and, thankfully, Greg and Jessie were having none of it. Harold was definitely getting hot and bothered for being called out on his BS.

Wednesday Morning Rant

Blink

There is a problem with high-stakes and costly agreements among many parties, whether those agreements are secret or open. They can hold up only so long as everyone involved is willing to hold the line and do what they agreed to do with the other parties. In order to accomplish this, there must be both incentives and long-term gain - and all of the parties have to participate and not fight each other. If the incentives change or become irrelevant, or if the playing field suddenly shifts and throws the old assumptions out the window, or there is major infighting, it creates a major stability problem.

This is a basic problem for cartels. In order for a cartel to work, it has to be able to fix price, and fixing price requires rigid control of supply. This can increase profits for the cartel's members, but it is a dangerous game unless there is absolute control (or, at least, near-absolute control) of supply, adequate incentive to not cheat and for members to not work against each-other. If any of this breaks down, cartel members will cheat or leave the game because it is no longer in the member's best interest to play by the rules or remain in the game. On a long enough timeline, this will always happen and it appears that it just happened with everyone's favorite cartel.

Yesterday, the UAE announced that it was leaving OPEC, and is doing so more or less immediately. The country is withdrawing from the cartel on Friday. OPEC will survive and still represents a significant amount of global oil production - especially if one considers "OPEC+" psuedo-members like Russia - but the loss of its third-largest member is going to have major consequences for the organization. Its ability to control price is going to be even more sorely tested - and seriously questioned - than it already is. Especially because unlike many OPEC members, the UAE has spare capacity - and spare capacity is a major control mechanism. The loss of the UAE is probably a very big deal.

It is also the consequence of two things that have moved rapidly against the cartel's stability. The first is the Iran war. Iran is an OPEC member that has spent more than a month hurling missiles at its fellow cartel members in direct attack and now is interfering with shipping through the Strait of Hormuz - something that has direct negative effects on its fellow members and particularly on the UAE. Iran broke the most basic rule of cartels, which is that you don't attack your fellow conspirators. But it is not just Iran. Iran may have been the final straw, but there are bigger structural problems facing OPEC, namely supply and politics.

OPEC+ ostensibly controls about 80% of global supply, but there are some big asterisks next to that. First, most producers in OPEC aren't all that big and don't have much slack in their production capacity and need to keep pumping to keep their petrostates from collapsing. A lot of the supply is in OPEC, but much of it is in the "must produce" column. Another is policy competition. For a long time, the cartel has had a monopoly in oil-as-policy-tool. There were major non-OPEC members like Russia, but they also didn't usually use oil as a policy tool. That was OPEC's game - until Trump. Trump does use energy as policy, and he has worked to make the US as productive as possible. There is now another party playing policy with energy, and it is a very big party indeed.

OPEC cuts supply? We can raise it and blunt the effect to some degree - and the market will take care of it all on its own. OPEC gives a sweetheart deal we don't like? We'll sanction the country on the receiving end, install tariffs or do other trade-as-policy-tool things to interfere with it. The US is not a petrostate. Oil here is an industry - a hugely important one, but still just one of many. We have flexibility that petrostates do not, and Trump has been using that flexibility. Someone blinking was inevitable, and the UAE clearly sees first-mover advantage in doing so.

The UAE sugar-coated its departure as best it could:

"This has nothing to do with any of our brothers or friends within the group," Al Mazrouei said. "We've been working together for years and years. We have the highest respect for the Saudis for leading OPEC."

The UAE remains committed to market stability and will continue to cooperate with producers and consumers to that end, the Energy Ministry said in its written statement. Its departure from OPEC will give the UAE more flexibility to respond to market dynamics, the ministry added.

"We reaffirm our appreciation for the efforts of both OPEC and the OPEC+ alliance and wish them success," the Energy Ministry said.

"Good luck in your future endeavors." The Saudis want to cut supply given the long erosion in oil price (Iran war notwithstanding), but the UAE does not.

The UAE has the ambition to achieve 5 million barrels per day of capacity by 2027 and wants more freedom of action to pursue that goal, the energy minister added. The decision to leave OPEC is not a response to years of production cuts led by Saudi Arabia, he said.

"We want to increase production and you want us to cut it, but we promise that's not why we're leaving" is such a boldly contradictory statement that one can only laugh.

Some, of course, keep whistling past the graveyard. The Guardian, desperate to maintain the party line, has blamed UAE's departure on ... so-called "decarbonization:"

The shift to low-carbon energy is also likely to have played a role in the UAE's exit. Producers that are able to pump more crude, and can tolerate lower oil prices, are expected to abandon any limits on crude production in favour of monetising their remaining reserves before demand for fossil fuels begin to decline.

The Guardian's Jillian Ambrose missed her true calling as a comedienne. You don't have to go grasping for straws to see what happened here, and it isn't a consequence of the energy-hating envirocommunists. The ground simply shifted, all at once. The global oil market has been changing for years, Iran is shooting missiles at its putative partners, too many OPEC members can't cut production and at least one of the few who meaningfully can no longer wants to help carry the rest at the expense of its own ambitions.

The world changed and it was only a matter of time before someone blinked.
