Not much to discuss.

Now we wait for either a successful assassination attempt or for a coalition of the willing to liberate America and deal with the Southerners better than they did with their last attempt.

Or he dies of natural causes and JD supervises the rats eating each other.

No way you’ll uninstall this with discussion, protests or elections.

This is general strike, or bullet material.

I don’t think assassination is likely (already been tried (or staged) and was so close that I’m certain the secret service has gotten many earfuls and more resources since then) but you’re right that he’s in poor health and old. I bet JD has been looking forward to getting to suddenly be in charge of the domestic fascism, but this war business clearly has him uncomfortable. He’s really not going to want to inherit the shit sandwich if the US military blows its wad in the Middle East and then China takes the opportunity to jump on Taiwan. With their energy capacity growth and manufacturing capability they are well positioned to exert their will and Xi is way smarter than Donny.

Was Bondi fired on the same day as Randy George to keep the zone flooded and distract us from this Operation Epstein Fury development, or because the Epstein Files heat is increasing again with her upcoming April 14th congressional deposition?

I’m not sure if Bondi still has to show up. I don’t know if the subpoena is for the office or the person. I find it interesting on that front that despite her persuading something in the private sector, that she was fired instead of just resigned. Does the firing influence whether she needs to show up for the deposition?

I’m not sure either. If the subpoena is for the office, then having a new person installed now will let them truthfully answer every question with some variant of “I don’t know, I wasn’t there.”

If it’s a personal summons, it’s probably still “helpful” for to have been fired. Maybe her security clearance gets revoked and she uses that as grounds to avoid discussing thorny topics?
