They are going to replace Biden with Newsom and take Trump off balllets.

All 50 of them? Nah, that's impossible.

They might also do the same as with Hunter and simply delay trial for 7 years so that the Statute of Limitations runs out.

Aaaaaand the trial is over. Guilty on all charges. Still gonna walk somehow?

Conservative commentator Ian Miles Cheong had this prediction for SBF:

“SBF is going to walk. Just watch.”

He will get some misdemeanors and have to serve community service or some crap like that. For appearances sake.

Guilty on all 7. Still think he gets community service or willing to amend the prediction?

I expect Ukraine to be divided up into East and West Ukraine, West Ukraine will be deeply in debt to the IMF. I'm not even certain it will survive as a country. Crimea will remain Russian, I'm not certain to what extent Western Ukraine will be Russian - anything with resources most likely.

The area we call Ukraine has been dominated by other countries since time immemorial.

Covid was an American Chernobyl

I believe that the U.S. is going to collapse just like the USSR did. The similarities between the late 1980s USSR and present day USA are uncanny — the endless lies, the corruption, the hollowing out of institutions, the censorship, and the decrepit leadership that is despised by the public.

So what will that look like going forward?

A century of decline (there is a lot more wealth to extract from the USA than there was from the USSR so the collapse will take longer).

Every city starts to look like the version of Los Angeles depicted in Blade Runner (or Elysium if you prefer) with dysfunction and chronic illness everywhere.

With high unemployment, Universal Basic Income becomes the only way for millions to survive. But UBI will be tied to following the vaccine schedule, SSRI schedule, and birth control schedule so the poor will die anyway.

The mafioso oligarchs gain even more power and dictate all aspects of our daily life but run a constant propaganda campaign to emphasize their benevolence (“Am I not merciful!?”).

Culture becomes even more grotesque with some variation of Squid Game on every channel.

Pharma uses AI to identify future leaders and arranges for their demise before they reach adulthood (Operation Herod).

Pharma openly assassinates political leaders who question their power and blames it, via their control of the media, on a lone gunman (Operation Oswald).

Florida and Texas will eventually get tired of losing elections, so they will withdraw to form their own Republics. The rest of the U.S. will be too sick and tired to bother with a response.

China will take Taiwan and become the new global hegemon.

That’s the present course that society is on. Unless the resistance rises up now and takes power back from the monsters.

The war in Israel could indicate that God will only allow them 10 more years to repent before he returns to set up the new millennial kingdom here on earth.

Kamal Harris will be remvoed as VP. Hillary will be appointed the new VP by Biden. Biden will then step down. All before the Ides of March 2023.

Hillary will then run (and win) in 2024 AND be eligible to run again in 2028.

PeopleUnited says

The war in Israel could indicate that God will only allow them 10 more years to repent before he returns to set up the new millennial kingdom here on earth.

This is misquoted/taken out of context. The original source of this speculation was from the Rapture thread https://patrick.net/post/1378973/?start=-39#last

PeopleUnited says

The war in Israel could indicate that God will only allow them 10 more years to repent before he returns to set up the new millennial kingdom here on earth. (Note: Jesus’ second coming is NOT the end of the world, rather it is the start of a new chapter in which Jesus rules as king on earth for 1000 years together with the help of all believers from all of history who will by then be all resurrected just like Jesus was)
https://www.thepropheticyears.com/enddepravity/have-the-10-days-of-awe-before-the-second-coming-begun.html

The above quote references a blog article with the link you left out, in which the author of the blog speculates that the 2023 Hamas attack of Israel could (as in might be) be a God ordained start of a 10 year period of “awe” aimed at getting the Children of Israel to turn back to God and recognize that their messiah was here 2,000 years ago and their leadership missed Him! (Note many Jews became believers at the time of Christ and the early church including the first disciples and Nicodemus. Most religious leaders rejected Jesus just like most still do today. Even so, today there are more Jews coming to faith. God has promised to give His people to the land between the Nile and Euphrates and that restoration happened in 1948 in part with the restoration of Israel as a nation in a portion of that land.)

So to be clear that 10 years that the blogger spoke of is speculation. But the Bible promises that when the church is removed from the earth in the rapture, that God will give Israel a dramatic rescue from the 7 years of unrelenting deception and destruction that the books of Daniel and Revelation describe. The rapture and tribulation that follows are a promise from God, the 10 year time period/speculation of that blogger is just that, speculation (not a prediction).

Prediction that in 2024 California politicians will attempt to loot the public pension funds by putting California municipal debt into the funds while selling off any viable investments the pension funds own. Unfortunately, they will find that the public appointees to run the funds were grossly incompetent and the pension funds are filled with a lot of worthless paper.

Who coulda possibly foreseen??????

Anyone who owns California municipal securities is gonna lose a bunch of dough.

No. There were no Russia when Kyiv was established ~1500 years ago. And Moscow was established only about 800 years back. The claim if Moscow "owning" Kyiv because at one time some Kyivan prince went North and established the fucking thing is no more valid than the US claiming we "own" London.

Not sure what the whole quip of "repeating history" even means in this context. What exactly is being "repeated"? If it means the military conquest of Ukraine by USSR from 100 years ago I agree - the resemblance is uncanny. It was even timed to be concluded by exact 100s anniversary, but the plan didn't work in the desired timeframe.

PS. Here's a good short summary of the last conquest: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9Gwuu7TXPwI

RWSGFY says

Corrupt oligarchs profiting from foreign wars while the people on both sides suffer.

I can't, in good conscience, support either side.
RWSGFY says

No. There were no Russia when Kyiv was established ~1500 years ago.

True, but Russia was established from Kiev.

“And Oleg sat down, ruling, in Kiev, and Oleg said: ‘Let it be a mother of Russian cities’”. This is how the oldest chronicle, The Tale of Past Years, described how Prince Oleg, one of the first rulers of ancient Rus’, made the decision to designate Kiev as the capital city of the recently established state of Eastern Slavic tribes in the late 9th century.

Oleg came from the north, from Novgorod, where the Eastern Slavs’ statehood originated. Having captured Kiev, Oleg united the two population centers that formed what chroniclers would later call Rus’ (the term “Kievan Rus” was coined by historians only in the 19th century). The people who lived there were called Rus(s)kie (the same as what contemporary Russians are referred to as today). The word “Russkie” and derivatives of it were used for centuries to designate those living in the territory of former ancient Rus’ – meaning, not exclusively ethnic Russians.

Historians and those in charge of ideology in the Soviet Union were quite sensitive to the feelings of various ethnic groups. However, Rus’ and Russkie did seem to pose a problem, as the notions were not directly connected to modern Russians. The official historical account that was included in textbooks asserted that Kievan Rus’ was the first state of Eastern Slavs and the cradle of the so-called “ancient Russian ethnos”. Later, in the modern era, this old super-ethnos gave birth to contemporary Russians, Ukrainians and Byelorussians.

Summary from your video.

Ukraine was right in the center of the violent chaos following the Russian Revolution 1917. After declaring independence the Ukrainian People's Republic was invaded multiple times as the Russian Civil War, the Polish-Soviet War, the Ukrainian-Polish War and the Soviet-Ukrainian War all raged across the country. The Communist victory in the Russian Civil War meant that the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic became a founding member of the USSR.

They saw firsthand how the Kremlin operates just recently such as with its invasion f the towns east of Kiev.

I think perhaps 30% of Ukraine was at least somewhat favorable toward the Kremlin before the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022.

My current estimate is that perhaps no more than 15% of the Ukrainian population is at at least somewhat favorable toward the Kremlin.

I’m already liking 2024. Consequence is itching to return to the American scene. Somewhere around 2016, cause and effect got a divorce. After that, things just happened or unhappened with no further orders of effect, like some brute existence without purpose, meaning, or even awareness, except for the feeling of the lash on your back. ...

We are waking to the stupefying criminality of public life, to the immersive obvious bullshit of people in charge who don’t deserve your respect or compliance. How they got into these positions is only another feature of that totalistic criminality. What was hidden in plain sight will be revealed to those suffering mere hysterical blindness.

It was fitting that the last extravagant political act of ’23 was Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows chucking Mr. Trump off the ballot there because. . . she felt like it. To save our democracy, you understand. That might be the terminal absurdity of the derangement we are leaving behind, the signature for much that has gone down in this country the past three years: women on the verge of a nervous breakdown throwing the crockery of law around the room at Daddy.

All this accomplishes, of course, is to disgrace authority in general and to turn America into one big broken home, making us a population of frightened runaways clinging desperately to a few square feet of ground, alone under the freeway ramp in the rain. That is no way to live. The way to live is to make yourself useful to your fellow humans and to get paid for it, and to find some joy and meaning in that human fellowship based on fair, consensual transactions — a pretty simple formula that has been supplanted by the evil idea that life is nothing but a shakedown.

The election of 2024, whether it is actually allowed to happen or not, will probably commence the extinction of the DC blob. This entity has made itself malignantly inimical to the proper functioning of self-governing people, and everybody knows it. The blob will die of irrelevance and impotence as the “trust horizon” devolves downward and we are thrust back into the awesome task of reconstructing our local communities. There is so much to do.

I keep hearing figures in the public arena say they have a creepy feeling that something big is going to happen. Well, sure, something’s got to give. So much hyper-complexity has been heaped onto the apparatus of shakedown that just about nothing works in America anymore. The Internet is obviously a major part of that. We’ve allowed digital magic to invade every scrap of territory in our daily doings, to the degree that there is no longer enough for humans to do — but, alas, digital magic is only a pale simulacrum of real human magic. The virtual is not an adequate substitute for the authentic. Why do you think there are so many people barely alive in a haze of opiate drugs splayed on the sidewalks of San Francisco, the epicenter of Internet wealth and power?

The “something big” could well be the Web-down crisis that is nervously tweeted about. If it went on for more than couple of weeks, most everything we depend on would cease to work, from food supplies to clean water to communications to what has been lately operating as “money.” That would be a clarifying interlude for sure. Among the few things that would still work in the event of a massive attack on the Internet are human brains, human bodies, and firearms. That combo could be as much a recipe for order as for chaos. I believe in the fairly short term, most of us would opt for order. As far as I’m concerned, there’s already been enough chaos, just about every bit of it unnecessary.

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. 2024 is on. It’s the time many of us have been waiting for. We’re in it. Stay alert. Make the right choices. Exercise situational awareness. Get ready to walk with consequence. It’s here, and it’s not “queer.”

Zelensky WAS the candidate who won in 2019 on promoting peace with the USSR against an incumbent who was running on building up native defense industry (especially ramping up missile production) and further increasing military spending. The Kremlin cunts were pleased with his victory and cheered his opponent's loss. He started de-mining along the frontlines, pulling troops back, prohibited even responding to incoming fire, stopped all indigenous missile development and instead splurged on roads, parks and such. Dreamed about hosting fucking Olympic games, believe it or not. The idiot thought that if he demilitarized and projected weak image he'll be given Dumb Ass and Crimea back. Then another weak idiot came to power in the USA and Kremling Bellend & Co. smelled blood in the water and pounced. The rest is history.

Si vis pacem para bellum is the only formula that works.

Israel will take over the West bank in time, then probably Gaza then expand into Syria. That's been the 70 year course. Who cares about what is morally right or wrong? The US and Israel nor the world at large don't, not in the slightest. They might PRETEND to, but they don't. It's all virtue signalling nonsense.

Right, Israel unilaterally withdrawing from Gaza a decade ago and the total lack of free elections there is a sign Israel is planning to take over.

They are taking over Gaza now, or attempting to. I didn't expect them to make the attempt this soon though. I expected in within a decade or so from when I made that prediction.

I will bet 100,000 Palestinians are killed in this current conflict. That's 5% of the population. More than 1% of them are dead now. I expect 1/2 the deaths will be due to starvation.

I know it's only 1 year and 10 months in, only 3 years and 2 months to go. Hardly any mention of Ukraine now in "news" - see for yourself.

The US starts a war, it's all the rage in "news" for a bit, then it goes on for YEARS and people just forget there's even a war.
Happened with Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria. Our "news" didn't even bother to report on our bombing of Yemen and Somalia.

And don't think the US isn't in this war directly either. Plenty of "advisors" there, you know, mercenaries, murderers for hire that have no loyalty to the nation and kill without cause other than a paycheck. Be all you can be..
