I think the establishment understand he's kind of useless and annoying. Also, he's the perfect neoliberal ghoul to oversee the destruction of infrastructure. He's the soulless husk of a man who'll do anything the capitalists want because that's what he's been trained for.

It is my God given right to drive my car into the ocean. No liberal repair crews can impinge on my freedom of navigation as an American.

I doubt Israel will willingly release all the Palestinians they have locked up on bullshit charges and I think Hamas will try to get as many of them released as they can since Oct 7 was mainly a hostage taking operation from what I remember. A hostage swap is definitely going to happen at some point but I doubt it will fully end the hostilities.

I think that fundamentally too many of the contradictions in Israel have been broken, laid bare, or challenged by Oct 7 and the work of the axis of resistance. Israel can't go back to the previous status quo since that's been delegitimized. However this progresses there will be a new dynamic in the region and that new dynamic is still coming into being even if they somehow get a ceasefire enacted temporarily.

I don't know if I'd got that far. Some payments might be delayed for like a week but they can always use this as an excuse to cut taxes and social programs. The capitalists will get something out of this if there is a shutdown.

Also, oh my fucking God. I just checked to see how long the funding is for. It's for literally six months. In September they get to have this all happen again.

Less than two months before the election we get everything to line up fucking perfectly for a chaotic election. I can see the government shutdown becoming a new crisis that the GOP tries to use to hurt biden. It would be a very suitable crisis for the country and it will layer perfectly well with whatever other BS is happening at the time.

I could see whatever negotiations happen around that possible shutdown determining who wins the presidency.

Honestly I have no idea how I missed it. I mean I guess my media consumption has changed to where i get most of my news from this mega and then I play video games. I've got to catch up on my dumb podcasts probably.

Has ISIS ever really operated in Russia? I don't think I've heard of anything like that before. I did a quick search of "Russia and ISIS" in Google, filtering out today for obvious reasons, and I don't really see anything. I'm just really doubtful off the whole thing with no prior history.

We almost have a shutdown every half a year at this point. No matter what, they exempt or extend military funding before preventing or allowing a shutdown. The war machine always gets to continue.

It's almost comical that the government is close to shutting down and I'm learning about it a few hours before the deadline. We in the US truly live in a failed state if a government shutdown is, in a way, barely news anymore.

Completely reasonable thing for Russia to do. Turkey has been a candidate member or something for about two decades now. The remaining Balkan countries can't even get to the same status as Turkey. Russia doesn't have to do anything since they know EU membership is never going to happen for Ukraine.

It happened almost a year ago that India passed China in the population estimates. Easy to miss or forget.

It's a little weird that points 1-6 are primarily for the US and Russia and then at the end they guess they'll talk about Ukraine. If this is true I'd want to consider this as what the US and Russia are willing to pretend they will concede to the other.

I would expect this to be the starting point for any real negotiations that happen after whatever triggers the legitimate start of negotiations. I would think there would be more granular detail about Ukraine being demilitarized and having responsibilities to protect minority rights.

Militarily, if the treaty is valid to 2040 then Ukraine will only have the young people who have been born shortly before and after the war. There is no ability for them to have any national strength to fight Russia at that point based on demographics. Also, it's reasonable to assume that the relative power of the imperialists has declined by that point as well. We already see the US losing strength in a lot of ways but we can't know how strong they'll be in 2040.

Again, that all assumes this document is real.
