And Musk is thinking: How can I tweak their voting machines? How can my minions 'disappear' just enough votes in each district to smooth the curve over so it makes the Republicans win? Heh. Don't think this is not possible. A lot of "not possible" keeps happening.

And if you're curious, don't miss the wonderfully satirical black comedy "The Death of Stalin" (2018) As they all kill each other off, guess who ends up as the next dictator? Little, mild-mannered Nikita Khrushchev. 5 stars. www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9eA...

Yup. It's Miller, not the wayward and random Vance. Miller has a lifelong mission - to control or kill everyone and anyone who disagrees with him. JD just wants to be ..... accepted? Get laid? Reconcile with his couch? Miller will ream Vance and his Silicon friends out. Can't wait for the fun.

Epstein's traitorous mission was to provide blackmailable pressure on EVERY important or potentially influential American, to be used by his spymasters as needed. Everybody. Anything. Note that his co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell is the daughter of Russian asset and creep Robert Maxwell.

I get the impression that he supplied "whatever you like" as his menu of kompromat: A bit of then-illegal marijuana? Something stronger? A non-recourse loan from unknown sources? Laundry? Hookers? Underage virgins? Altar boys? Maybe you'd like someone dead? Yeah. All of it. Whatever it took.

Putin is playing a psychological game of The Great Oz: the mysterious, elusive and powerful figure high in the tower that Zelensky can never actually approach, a dark deity to be feared and obeyed. Putin knows very well that Zelensky would dissolve him into crumbs if they ever actually met.

And I say this knowing some of the exceptional people who maintain the US nuclear arsenal. Amazing people. And knowing something also of Russia's economic culture - everybody steals everything. It's expected. Theft & graft is the real oligarchical currency. All *data* is fake. Pure Trumpism.

If Russia's nuclear stuff is anything like the rest of their oligarch- stolen hull of a fake economy, their *power* is about as impressive as their Lada cars. Puleeze. I'd bet they can't really launch, maintain or deliver something that was long-ago hulled out by graft and greed. It's pure Potemkin.
