The future isn't Democrat vs. Republican any more. The left is drawing a new political dividing line right now:
🇺🇸 Americans vs. 🇵🇸 Islamic Communists
Which side are you on?

Also, R2-D2 is a droid Jedi.
Forget light sabers and force pushes, the power of a Jedi is to set their mind to something and then succeed at it. Do, or do not - there is no try. That is the true power of a Jedi.
Think of Anakin leaping from flying ship to flying ship, high in the sky of Coruscant, never once slipping off. Or just swinging your light saber and reflecting each shot from a blaster back at your enemy. Think about going alone, deep into the Death Star to shut down the tractor beam so that the Falcon could escape.
And in this way, R2-D2 is clearly a Jedi. Even in his introduction in Phantom Menace, he succeeds in repairing Padme's ship, while all the other astromech droids were blown away. On Bespin he unleashes a smoke screen and casually rolls through it, laser beams zooming by all around him, but none ever hit him. And oh btw, he discovers that the Falcon's hyperdrive has been sabotaged. On Tatooine he just takes off into the desert in search of Ben, and finds him.
Like a true Jedi, I can't think of a single thing that R2-D2 did - not tried, DID - and actually failed at.

Watch Susan Rice saying out loud "Nice tech company/school/media organization you have there, Trump supporter - it would be a *shame* if someone... held you accountable when the Dems come back into power" like a fuckin' mob boss.
"It's not going to end well for them," she says.
Democrats have been dropping hints out in the open for months about what they'll do if they sweep the midterms. Now @DataRepublican has uncovered the terrifying strategy.
Thousands of internal transcripts and recordings reveal the DSA's operational plan to trigger a "doomsday scenario." They want to manufacture enough street chaos, like we're seeing in France, to force Trump to use the Insurrection Act in 2027. Then, they'll cry "fascism" until they can delegitimize federal authority and hand power to Democratic governors in a color revolution.
THIS IS WHAT THEY’VE ALWAYS BEEN PLANNING. Remember when Susan Rice threatened to hold corporations, law firms, and tech companies that cooperated with Trump "accountable" through subpoenas? And Sen. Elissa Slotkin recently admitted she wants to "scare" young professionals by creating "reputational risk" so nobody wants to serve in a conservative administration. They want to set the country on fire until you have no choice but to yield.

It it’s just a “student social movement” then why don’t you just let them into the museum so they can study all the artwork?
🇫🇷 Chers visiteurs, en raison d’un mouvement social étudiant, le musée est fermé pour le moment. Nous vous prions de nous excuser de la gêne occasionnée.
🌍Dear visitors, due to student strikes the museum is currently closed. We apologise for the inconvenience.

LFG! 🥃🍸
The Supreme Court has agreed to weigh in on the constitutionality of an 1868 federal law that imposes a tax on distilled spirits but also bans home distilleries – that is, the at-home production of spirits like bourbon and whiskey.

Bill Gates spent his money on mosquito nets in Africa.
The Rockefeller Foundation gave massive grants (with Gates) to increase farm yields in Africa, which largely didn’t work or backfired entirely.
Mackenzie Scott spent $ billions on racial issues, LGBTQ causes, climate justice, immigration advocacy.
George Soros gave $ billions to far-left causes and electing communist DAs who let criminals back on the street.
Reid Hoffman funded E. Jean Carrol’s civil lawsuit against Trump. Carroll couldn’t remember the year she was allegedly abused and called rape sexy.
Laurene Powell Jobs’ Emerson Collective bought a far-left prestige magazine and advocates for immigration “justice.”
Bezos funds climate and biodiversity research.
And on and on it goes…
Elon Musk bypasses the NGOs, the grifting consultant class, and the top-down ideological morass of the woke elite, and just pledged to put $10.5 billion directly into the accounts of America’s children.
We will always have elites. We just need better elites. Elon is showing the way. God bless him.
H/T to Michael Dell, also.
Next year, I will give one of my SpaceX shares to every kid in America.
This will be the first of many.

< Men understand that the other guy is a professional just like me, and we should have an open fight by fair rules and both go home at the end of the day. That fight is about establishing dominance within the hierarchy and making the other guy subordinate.
For women - and Democrats - conflict isn’t over until the other side is GONE and they never have to talk to them again - total exclusion from the group. >
When I say that women lack the concept of an honorable enemy, this is what I’m talking about.
Obviously a lot of the Democrats’ new vindictiveness is Trump derangement, but the Great Feminization is part of the story, too.
Men understand that the other guy is a professional just like me, and we should have an open fight by fair rules and both go home at the end of the day.
For women, conflict isn’t over until the other side is gone and they never have to talk to them again.
Men believe in hierarchy, so a fight is about establishing dominance within the hierarchy and making the other guy subordinate.
Women don’t, everything is egalitarian and consensus-driven, so if you do get conflict, the only possible outcome is total exclusion from the group.
It makes sense that the Democratic Party is abandoning old-fashioned ideas about honorable conflict as it becomes more dominated by women.

- In France they leave pallets of glass bottles to use in riots
- During the BLM riots they left pallets of bricks
- During the ICE protests throughout America they left stacks of bricks to throw at law enforcement
Same playbook, same people funding it. It’s a communist takeover

The looters are just looking for a place to sleep and snack and stash their, um, loot before they go back out there into the streets. You know, like a Riot B&B:
BREAKING:
The looters in Marseille have started targeting private homes villas in affluent areas.
They are breaking into large villas in the 7th arrondissement of Marseille.

< Only high-testosterone, high-IQ heterosexual males speak and act as a result of their [own individual] mental model of the system as a whole.
Everyone else just says and does whatever they think will keep them [and the group] safe, and maybe get them a pat on the head. >
Until one day she gets a looted store instead of a pat on the head:
No, she does not realize anything.
No, she will not realize anything.
No, she will not change her belief system.
Because she has none.
Only high-testosterone, high-IQ heterosexual males speak and act as a result of their mental model of the system as a whole. Everyone else just says and does whatever they think will keep them safe, and maybe get them a pat on the head.
Her mental model is not "Diversity is good for France."
Her mental model is "if I say diversity is good for France, others will approve of me".
If you have enough voters who believe things simply because others believe them, democracy becomes irrelevant.
Actual opinion no longer matters, only the illusion of consensus. Because the people who are swayed by the illusion of consensus become the swing voters, and everyone who actually needs to be reasoned with becomes irrelevant.
That's what women's suffrage is really for. That's what immigration is really for. That's what government school systems are for. They are all for generating a critical mass of voters whose opinions are formed outside their heads.
That's why the entire Western political class appears to hate high-T hetero White men suddenly and all at once.
Western high-T hetero White men are the demographic that advances civilization at all, but they are also the greatest impediment to managerial rule. And guess which one the political class actually cares about.
So, no, women are not going to suddenly wake up and reverse course.
You are not going to seize power by changing women's minds.
You must change women's minds by seizing power.

Well duh - the Muslim shop owners were out of beautiful oak doors, as usual, so where else were they going to go to get something to burn?
French journalist Paul Amar:
“They came prepared. They had the addresses of town halls. They had addresses of Jewish shop owners.
In a street in Marseille, all businesses owned by Jews were set on fire. Businesses run by Muslims weren’t”

It seems @DataRepublican has discovered that the Dems & DSA communists have been working on very specific and detailed plans for instigating a coup / regime change / civil war in the U.S. after next month's midterm elections:
< Leading Dems are hatching up the following strategy:
1. After the midterms, use the DSA to incite and carry out violent civil unrest.
2. Make the violent civil unrest so bad that Trump must invoke the Insurrection Act.
3. Use the invocation of the Insurrection Act to create a national sense of illegitimacy.
4. Dem governors will then appear justified in taking the extreme action of refusing to acknowledge federal authority.
5. Push to form a new "legitimate" federal government via various means, including an Article V transformation of the Constitution. >
Let me break down what I'm seeing and hearing here from DR.
I don't know DR's source for these materials , but they appear completely legit and are profoundly disturbing.
These are leading members of the Democrat Party hatching up the following strategy:
1. After the midterms, use the DSA to incite and carry out violent civil unrest.
2. Make the violent civil unrest so bad that Trump must invoke the Insurrection Act.
3. Use the invocation of the Insurrection Act to create a national sense of illegitimacy whereby Democrat governors appear justified in taking the extreme action of refusing to acknowledge federal authority and push to form a new form of federal government via various means, including an Article V transformation of the Constitution.
Maybe there is more to this and it's not as bad as it seems, but right now this appears to be a conspiracy to create the next Fort Sumter.
This is a CIA-style color revolution in real time, on our own soil.
(Of course the legacy media is nowhere near this--it takes us Internet randos to get the word out.)

If France must “pay heed to what they are saying” then why didn’t Macron open his door and let them into his home last night to talk when the mob came a-knockin’ on his front door last night?
NOW - Macron addresses the nation, calling for order and says that the youth of France are "expressing great anguish and concern about the future... we need to pay heed to what they are saying and we must not minimise the hardships that they are facing."

A *tall* tale as old as time - propaganda designed to trigger the bandwagon effect in voters:
We've seen this movie before, it's a very common attempt to manipulate the voter pool.
Phase 1: Bogus polls put the Democrat way ahead during most of the run-up in an attempt to demoralize Republican voters.
Phase 2: Bogus polls are allowed to tighten to a very narrow D lead just before the election. An honest poll would show a huge R lead.
Phase 3: Ballot fraud steals the election. The purpose of the bogus polls was to supply top cover for the fraud.
It's a tale as old as time.
