So what happens on this three day weekend? The actions of Israel and the US have been proven to the world to be untrustworthy. I will give Israel credit: they were able to bring both sides of Congress together. Money still talks.
I wonder how much treachery 30 silver coins will buy this time?

I am a hard core American, but I wish Trump would just Shut the F**K Up.
This morning a YouTube channel (The Prepared Homestead) host stated that that someone said there was a flash video o. The Whitehouse website stating that Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security will be stopped and that the government is preparing to do this now. I am paraphrasing here to the best of my ability. So, this guy does this everyday – warns you that the sky is falling Henny Penny. Trump does the same thing. Tactic to control. Create uncertainty. Boogie man is sadistic.
.Why Contradictions Are Manipulative
.Creating Confusion and Doubt One of the most common forms of manipulation through contradiction is gaslighting, where manipulators repeatedly present false or contradictory information to make their victim question their reality. By saying one thing and doing another, manipulators create an environment of uncertainty. For example, someone might claim to care about you while consistently neglecting your needs. This contradiction forces the victim to question their own perception of the relationship.
.”According to Dr. Robin Stern, author of The Gaslight Effect, gaslighters “deny, lie, and contradict themselves to make the victim lose their sense of reality”. By constantly contradicting themselves, manipulators can confuse and destabilize their target, making them more reliant on the manipulator for clarity and guidance.”
Trump hates us. He. Is filled with hate for humanity. My view.
It’s about shaping perception. The Art of the Deal. You know, propaganda.
Remember the old Soviet joke?
A Soviet and an American are seated next to each other on a plane traveling from Moscow to Washington, DC. The American says, I have to hand it to you. Your propaganda is very impressive. The Soviet smiles and thanks him, but replies that it’s nothing compared to American Propaganda. Confused, the American tells him, “but we don’t have propaganda.”
The soviet smiles and says, “exactly.”
War is every bit as much about perceptions, morale and will as it is about blowing things up and killing the enemy.
My perception has been shaped. For decades we were duped. Do you agree? Therefore, the rah rah sis boom bah red, white, and blue was the book cover we were made to believe before the internet was given to the masses. I will not vote. Both sides are guilty of subterfuge against American citizens. Both sides are run by a nationals that have us believing they are working for our better good. Trump, Biden, Obama, Billy boy, Bush, Bush…how far shall we go back? Get ready to suffer much more. Why is know one stating that foreign nationals are selling off their US bonds at a rapid pace. I have stopped believing the Wizards of Oz. Amen.
Everyone outside the fox news swilling, true believer neocon/zionist shill crowd appears to have their perception negatively shaped by the ongoing BSing about what has been achieved with regard to the “usrael” operation in Iran. Partly this is because nobody besides that particular contingent wanted this war to begin with, and partly because the observable reality doesn’t remotely support the statements Trump has been making while breaking his arm patting himself on the back.
Not even the US bullscat media machine cannot so totally manipulate perception that they can successfully counter reality for the overwhelming majority of the masses anymore. Some reality always gets through the propaganda, and we are seeing that now with Trump’s bragging of our “great success” in wrecking Iran’s military capabilities being disproven again and again by their effectively continuing to attack with missiles and drones that he would have us believe no longer exist, having been destroyed by the USMIL. When his public statements are repeatedly disproven over a timeframe of weeks, the scam becomes less and less effective.
We are at the stage where only the most ardent adherents to the orthodoxy that supports Israel (and warmongering in general) is on board with this. Everyone else ranges from moderately skeptical to outright disbelief of any official statement being offered on the status of Iran. Since consent for this can no longer be manufactured at scale, there are only two ways it can go: one is to simply cut loose, downplay our losses, and walk away declaring “mission accomplished”.
The other to continue doubling down on the stupid, all while failing to convince anyone (outside of the neocons/zionists) of the need for, or worthiness of the effort, and end up taking so much damage (i.e., scores of flag draped caskets, and potentially the unleashing of nuclear hell) that the masses actively turn against this admin (which I perceive is already well in progress, if only because of what it has done to the cost of living), and then they are sunk, especially with the midterms incoming. Like it or not, there will be a knee jerk reaction to the fact the republican’ts have utterly failed to do a damn thing widely perceived as worthwhile, while their failures are too numerous to count.
There is also the perception that many of these aren’t even legitimate failures, they were the intentional scuttling of golden opportunities to get things large swathes of the public wanted done, and they instead chose to say, in effect, “screw you all, we aren’t giving you what you want”. Much of the voting public will be in a retributive mindset over that insolence.
You ever been to one of those shows where half the crowd is rooting for one kingdom and half is rooting for the other and in the end depending on if it’s an odd or even one side wins and one side loses but your pocket is still lighter no matter if your side won or lost…That’s politics in a nut shell but you don’t get to even enjoy what made your pocket lighter…And I’m sure most of the Repukes are doing exactly what their Aipac handlers are telling them…
That sums up our political system here, no doubt. It’s the NFL writ large, only the diversity is even more ignorant and less competent than a bunch of lugs chasing a pig skin down a field.
The Israeli’s truly understand the modern day equivalent and power of 30 pieces of silver.
