Definitely seems like a crackdown on the intelligence deep state.

Did the Chinese embassy sponsor this shit? What the fuck were they thinking???

Brooklyn Nets is owned by 蔡崇信 (Joe Tsai) a Taiwanese partner of Jack Ma in Alibaba. He is, by all accounts, a very decent owner of multiple Sports Franchises.

I know business and government shouldn't mix. But it's really amazing how many guys who become presidents and similar don't seem to be able to read a financial statement in the US.

Trump is always a businessman first and he probably almost got a heart attack when he looked at the expense figures.

That's straight up what Trump is doing lol

And it's no coincidence that's the third world playbook - most third world countries are US vassals with political systems based on US.

You've confused inertia for strength when it comes to institutions. Being unable to fire anyone, no matter how dumb or corrupt and/or if they're a disability hire from a political dynasty, does not make it strong. America has weak institutions with armies of strongly rooted employees, not strong institutions. Strong institutions would be ones capable of self-pruning and learning.

When times are good due to external factors in systems like this, there can be a false appearence of effectiveness. Times are simply not good in many third world countries, and recently not so in US anymore either.

I suspect the Greenland thing is meant as a deal for US to drop its claims on Taiwan without losing too much face. KMT is becoming US' Assad.

Btw US claims it can refuse to update Denmark's F-35s, now I have no idea if Denmark has any engineering prowess by itself, but with a decent level of engineering skill, it is full well possible to restore them to flight despite US objections (essentially making a F-35 fork lol).

DJI can help unlock these F35s

Uh, yeah! The deepest part of Trump's despised "Deep State". He probably blames CIA for a lot of black propaganda against him personally.

And if you want proof then look no further than Tulsi Gabbard.

Before or after the CIA give him the JFK treatment?

You mean the DNI getting the RFK treatment?
Oh wait ...

...and 15 to 45 days to just make plans for declassification.

Yawn, let me know when there's a decent TikTok summary of what's declassified.

At this stage there is literally nothing that can save them from collapse by 2030 (barring something supernatural), everyone can bookmark this post and see.

If there's any time for a 9km tall skeleton above DC, it's now

He’s going to speed up the decline because individual historical figures often have little control over the broader forces and cycles shaping history. For example, after de-industrialization, their GDP now leans heavily on bloated government spending and jobs, which ripple through the economy. All those nonsense jobs that Trump is cutting exist somehow for a reason. This is also why DOGE is complete nonsense - it’s the same principle. They rely on debt to keep the economy and GDP afloat, driving spending and economic activity. If they cut spending to try and pay off debt, their revenues would shrink, sending them back to square one - only now with even more tension. It's the Gordian Knot. At this stage there is literally nothing that can save them from collapse by 2030 (barring something supernatural), everyone can bookmark this post and see.

I don't think Trump is going to cut government spending, I think he's going to do the opposite and spend heavily on building back American industries and force the FED to give low interest loans, it's going to weaken the dollar and help with American exports. If trump could correctly reorient the American economy, they could do pretty well considering most problems Americans have can be solved with just building more stuff like housing crisis. America right now is a lot like post Plaza Japan, over financialized, it's probably best for America to take the similar way out.
