Source: J.D. Vance’s Official Portrait via Wikipedia

Trump’s selection of JD Vance as a running mate makes him the De facto heir to MAGA. While a lot of MAGA populism is symbolic and rhetorical, Vance has taken populist positions on trade, anti-trust, and immigration. However, until fairly recently he was a bootstraps Reaganite, who called for austerity on social programs, so I am skeptical of his populism. Vance is also fairly hawkish towards Iran and China, though more dovish on Russia, far from being a non-interventionist. Regardless, a lot of Reaganites are unhappy about Vance’s nomination.

Vance has a background in venture capital with strong ties and backing from the Center-Right of Silicon Valley, including Peter Thiel, David Sacks, Marc Andreessen, and Elon Musk. Besides Thiel, Vance was mentored by Yale Law Professor and Tiger Mom, Amy Chua. While Chua epitomizes the archetypical neoliberal striver, she has hinted that she is open to HBD, and I suspect Vance is probably HBD aware.

It will be interesting to see what direction Vance goes, factoring in his ties to Tech oligarchs. There are trade-offs, as the rightwing of Silicon Valley is open to the more grey tribe, dissident sphere, yet also invested in neoliberal policies like h1b immigrant visas and deregulation. The reality is you need some elite support and this Silicon Valley grey tribe elite is preferable to the old guard GOP donor class like the Koch Brothers. I could see a future post-Trump, tech-oriented GOP that is centrist on cultural issues, for natalism/soft eugenics, pro-high skilled immigration, tech accelerationist, pro-crypto currencies, and for replacing social programs with UBI.

J.D. Vance epitomizes this politics of personal success, a Hillbilly Scotts Irish version of a POC or immigrant striver. While the striver boasts that they overcame the odds, they often don’t do much for their left behind people. The message of Vance’s Hillbilly Elegy was not that Hillbillies or rural White proles were oppressed by the elites but that they were impoverished due to a culture that incentives bad life choices and that they need to lift themselves up from their bootstraps.

source: @JStein_WaPo on X

Vance had previously been critical of MAGA for encouraging poor Whites to adopt a victim mindset. However, Vance had some good ideas in Hillbilly Elegy, such as having a mentorship program between elites and proles. There is nothing wrong with self-improvement but it has its limitations and becomes a problem when it detracts from policy reforms and class exploitation.

Vance grew up in a middle class suburb of Cincinnati and has been accused of misrepresenting his background, though his family were from Appalachia. Vance seems uncomfortable with who he is and pretends to be someone he is not. He alternates back and forth between LARPing as a prole and being an elite striver. He remains in this state of limbo between being a Hillbilly and a Silicon Valley elite. He should decide upon one specific archetype, a firebrand populist or a dissident elite maverick.

Vance just does not come across as presidential in looks and decorum nor is he particularly charismatic. Unfortunately, this excludes a lot of great people with interesting ideas from higher office. I also think that Vance could harm Trump somewhat among female voters. Even if you sympathize with Vance’s comments about childless women, it is an electoral liability.

I think it is cool that I share Twitter/X mutuals with Vance, as Vance followed HBD blogger Steve Sailer, which is a great sign. Also, Matt Pegas a regular co-host of my podcast interviewed Curtis Yarvin, who the media claims is a big influence on Vance. There is a chance that Vance has stumbled across one of my articles at some point.

source: @JulianWaller on X

Vance is intelligent and much more intellectual than the other MAGA figures. While Trump could have selected another boomer or a diversity pic, I can appreciate that Vance is a White millennial male. Trump’s selection of Vance signals that Trump is symbolically aligning with populism and Vance is some flex of the online youthful right. Basically, Vance is the best of a list of uninspiring potential VP candidates.

source: @TKeithPreston1 on X

Besides J.D. Vance, Matt Gaetz is the only halfway decent MAGA Republican from a Dissident Centrist standpoint. This is because Gaetz is more culturally libertarian, has taken economic populist positions such as supporting Lina Khan’s anti-trust against Big Tech, is good on civil liberties opposing FISA surveillance, co-sponsored a bill with AOC to legalize research on psychedelics, is more open to environmentalism rejecting climate denial, and is broadly non-interventionist. However, Gaetz has taken more conventionally conservative stances, such as blaming Medicaid expansion for the opioid crisi s. While Gaetz has this frat bro persona, at least he does not LARP as a peasant as Vance does. Regardless, Gaetz is not a major contender for the heir to MAGA, plus he looked ridiculous in Botox at the RNC Convention.

Of other MAGA and GOP populist figures, Thomas Massie is commendable for his hyper-principled non-interventionist stances, but I don’t see him becoming a major player, much like Ron Paul. Vivek Ramaswamy says a lot of the right things and like Vance is more in touch with the youthful dissident energy. However, Vivek comes across as grifty and used to be more of a neoliberal. Marjorie Taylor Greene comes across as kooky and into QAnon-type conspiracy theories while also retaining a lot of mainstream conservative policy positions. Josh Hawley is hawkish on foreign policy and bad on civil liberties, and I hate how sanctimonious and preachy he is. Hawley reminds me of a Bush-era Evangelical in decorum.

I would place Doug Burgum, Glenn Youngkin, and Marco Rubio in a separate category of establishment Republicans who are friendly toward Trump. For Tulsi Gabbard to be a contender as an heir to MAGA, she would have to pivot to the Right. This would seem grifty in contrast with her principled maverick persona, which includes more leftwing stances. Who knows maybe 2028 will be a Vance/Gabbard ticket. However, there is also a high probability that the GOP and MAGA will implode after Trump.

    The sponsorship of J D Vance by openly gay billionaire Peter Thiel, parallels Trump’s rise to fame under the wing of gay Jewish Roy Cohn. Two older wealthy gay men, both political king-makers, found joy in these younger men, Trump and Vance, for ‘some reason’. Vance may be quietly bi-sexual, ‘Gay D Vance’ as the quip goes.

    J D Vance apparently is a heavy user of eyeliner and eye shadow, giving him ‘beautiful eyes’, as Trump declares

    Pickings are slim and Trump had to locate a live body for his ticket so this was what he could find. Why would a hillbilly, even a pretend one, give a crap about Israel at all? The term “donor class” comes up quite a bit, hinting at the fact that corporations and the billionaire class are the ones calling the shots, sponsoring politicians who’ll look out for their interests while projecting some persona or other to the gullible public. The two parties both have an enemy list, the Dems have Russia as their #1 while the Repubs have China. But both are internationally meddlesome, push for conflict and back Israel to the hilt. Vance was scouted out early and sponsored since that point. They wouldn’t have done that unless they thought he was a good investment.

  3. When I lived in northern Appalachia years ago the few hillbillies in the county lived in a collection of junk school buses on a back road. They would take potshots at the car if you happened to drive down “their” dirt road, which we did sometimes in search of fossils in an abandoned strip mine. It’s just in fun, a local told me, they’re not really aiming at us.

    The standard criticisms of “hillbillies” are applicable to poor blacks and for the same reason. Both are subcultures that developed independently of the majority culture because the people in them were judged unworthy of membership in it. For most of us, our cultural ethic is that you work hard for the boss and get ahead; for them the reality is that you work hard for the boss and get screwed. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that these groups have given us the best genres of truly American popular music, which have done so much to liberate us from the stifling inheritance of Puritanism.

    J. D. Vance (his real name Donald Bowman) is a construct, created and promoted by the Jews for war against Muslims, Iran. Vance is no different from his recent predecessors, a puppet controlled by the savage Jewish Puppetmasters who hold America and Americans by the necks. Shame of the American people.

    Of course he’s gay.
    Of course JD wears makeup.
    Of course Hamel-Vance’s propensity to change his last and middle names is consistent and coincident with mascara, eyeliner and ?lipstick?.

    Of course he’s wearing a mask, one of many, the beard being, first and foremost, a mask to obscure his fat face.

    He hates his fat head. The rest of us don’t care about JD’s fat face. JD would say we all hate him for his fat face and fat head.

    Almost identically, Obama’s oversized ears and JD’s jowls are points of emphasis, obsessions in their simple Narcissistic personality disordered minds.

    Where do they find these guys?
    They test for these personality disordered types through mass surveys.
    They sift the information.
    They select candidates.

    Now folk do the work for them by voluntarily taking personality inventories online.

    Hell, they could be brothers separated at birth.

    Why would a “semi-sophisticate” who grew up outside the confines of Appalachia take on the dishonest persona, identity of a hillbilly from “Appalachia”?

    JD Hamel Vance, Yale Law, didn’t think through his scheme thoroughly enough much like the way the writer JD HAMEL didn’t quite contemplate the title of his novel, a work of fiction really, from a very troubled mind.

  7. JD Vance is among the worst possible picks Trump could have made. At best, he does nothing for the campaign; at worst, he’ll be a factor in Trump’s loss.

    I really don’t know what to say anymore. If it wasn’t for the other readers on UR commenting here, I could almost be convinced that I am a dinosaur thinking and believing what I do, or that I was an anomaly. Thank God for this website and its educated readers.

    In closing I will confess to you a certain sorrow when I see the MAGA (MIGA) people lapping up Trump’s pompous reality show script. These poor souls are like unto unquestioning puppies drinking up antifreeze served to them by their malicious owner. CivNat cucks and sodomites, dumb white women bowing their heads in reverence for “Waheguru” or whatever that demon’s name is, imbeciles cheering tattooed strippers and negro-mimicking “rappers,” Third World imports insisting “I uhmellikan just rike yoo!” – all sincerely believing Trump and his homo sidekick Vance are “the solution,” somehow.

    It’s like a tragic cartoon. I want to laugh at the spectacle, but when I consider all of the great men who built this country up and the many who lost their lives for it, all I can do is hang my head.

  8. Everybody seems to write caricatures, and it seems expects them to be taken as serious character and position statements and studies. There is not one comment that take the task of obtaining and explaining the essence of Vance.

    The emphasis seems to be-like bar talk-to be entertaining and attention getting to impaired minds.

    Many commenters seize upon a snippet of a life and generalize the entirely of his existence on it.

  9. MAGA is bottom of the barrel Republican trash, so it is probably true that closet homo Zionist scum JD Vance is the best representative of it.

    At this point, I’m not sure Trump will win, though. The removal of Biden just might be enough to give Democrats the edge. Trump cannot win an election against a cardboard box, as we saw in 2020, because he is so universally hated (no, he did not lose because of nebulous unproven “fraud”- he lost because he sucks and moderates greatly dislike him). He stood a chance this year because Biden has also grown to be hated by large segments of his own base, mostly because of his genocide. With Kamala, Democrats have shed the genocide Joe baggage and can once again focus their campaign on being against Trump, which is an electoral winner. The only way Trump wins is with massive fraud IMO (a possibility, since Trump is the Israeli pick).

    Thanks.

    This Vance is the very prototype of the unattractive, insecure homosexual: sponsored by ugly, elderly homosexuals, taking his wife from an alien race, and procreating future neurotic nerds (not being attracted to women, he’ll choose anything as long as his wife doesn’t look down on him – probably sexually impotent too, which doesn’t prevent him from procreating once a year).

    I’m not really familiar with these HBO stories, which seem to be yet another ridiculous fad: Jew Rubenfield’s yellow whore should belong to a Thailand brothel and Vance’s fake wife should be on the banks of the Ganges cooking cow shit. Really in tune with northern Europeans .

    He’s the complete opposite of Trump, a silver spooner who used his billions and celebrity status to change the rotting carnage taking place throughout America, and Vance a poor white growing up seeking a better life for himself , his children and now his fellow countrymen.

    It is a sad fact that I am a confirmed sceptic . JD was chosen not by Trump but by others who are looking years, decades, down the road. They want to be sure that when the Trumpster stops blowing his Trumpet, there will be another puppet to do their bidding. What better mutt than an educated hill billy !

    On the other hand I hesitate to discount Cum Alla. Remember folks, this lady did not become VP by accident. Like it or not she may well become President ! The US needs a Jamaican East Indian Chinese Afro American West Indian with the IQ of an amoeba and a zoological cackle to run the place. Cum Ala also has heavy Jewish backing. Besides, the US is a multicultural society and what better person to bring the country together ? To unite. DEI bros, DEI !

    There are many questions circulating about Vance: (1)

    JD Vance went from no money (student loans) in 2013, to big money in 2020. Everything came via Peter Thiel and Eric Schmidt, but mostly Thiel.

    To understand JD Vance as an Ohio senator, the inflection points in 2013 and the subsequent relationship with billionaire Peter Thiel (Palantir Technologies) from 2013 to now, becomes important.

    Billionaires Eric Schmidt and Peter Thiel are key members of the steering committee of the controversial, closed-door and overtly globalist Bilderberg conference. Newsweek once called Schmidt and Thiel the two most influential figures at Bilderberg.

    Peter Thiel’s company Palantir Tech is the driving force of a global surveillance system using artificial intelligence (AI). Palantir has massive contract interests in US military and intelligence communities.

    Keep in mind, Palantir is the current company creating the tech mechanisms for the U.S government to conduct foreign and domestic surveillance. The actual technology needed by the Deep State to advance their interests, is provided by Peter Thiel.

    Is Vance a true convert breaking away from past links?
    Or, an opportunist who will work for Globalism behind the scenes?

    We have to watch him carefully.

    MAGA would have likely been better served by a Ben Carson pick for VP. As he is not interested in his own run. This would have provided 4 years to further develop the ‘bench’ of potential 2028 candidates.

    Right on! So many on the Right idolize our Founders as some kind of apostles without really considering what they wrote or why. They love to argue how the Founding Fathers would be appalled by what we’ve done with their gifted intelligence. One just has to actually read the Declaration of Independence in light of the time period it was written to know what a money-hungry and power-seeking farce they were. Hamilton immediately established a central bank and Washington was fine with it. What other great men? Lincoln? He destroyed the Republic and gave us an oligarchy. Is it the duped little guy dying on the battlefield for “democracy” who were “great men”? They died for a LIE no different than the Ukrainians being slaughtered in 404. I think many Americans hold these myths because what other history do we have? When our ancestors came here, the price for becoming “American” was their history, their culture, their language, and ultimately even their religion. Ask “What is an American” and no one can define it, because an American is whatever our rulers say he is just like fiat currency. Now, we Americans have no identity, a nomadic people without roots, so desperate many believe Trump can save them.

  39. J.D. Vance is a horrible choice. Vance is a confirmed Jew worshiper who will do everything he can to advance the satanic Jewish agenda; an agenda which is destroying the U.S. and making enemies of the rest of world. All the wars we’ve started for the past 25 years are at the behest of the Jews. Decent White men are dying for the very Jews who hate and despise them. Trump is no better vis-a-vis the Jews. Jews control Trump’s every move.

    We have lost our independence to a Zionist Occupation Government and Deep State, Vance is their servant.

    The Jews are calling the shots more than ever in every facet of our national life. Our current satanic social pathology was invented, propagated and imposed by the Jews:

    Cultural Marxism
    Anti-White animus
    Negro Worship
    Mexican Worship
    Pervert Worship
    Child Tranification and Mutiliation
    Turning Schools into Leftist Ideological Reeducation Camps

    Anti-Christianity
    Anti-Civilization
    The Invasion of Millions of Hostile Third-World Savages
    Victim Culture
    The Litigious Society
    Endless Wars

    All these things and other evil, mentally-ill agenda items have their origins with the Jews, and the Jews control the narrative and policy more than ever. They are the agents of Satan, and have deluded Gentiles into doing their will. The Jews are our most deadly enemies. And the Republican Party is not fighting back at all. The current Republican Party is only allowed to exist in order to keep gullible Whites involved in our evil government; a government that is systematically destroying the very White people that are the ONLY people still keeping this country (barely) functioning.

    One more thing:

    Readership are also reminded that MAGA happens to be a Rally Cry “adopted” by the BoneSpurs Campaign.

    Trump is an Israel-Firster – a MIGA Advocate first and foremost. Sponsored by the Late Mogul Adelstein, Father-in-Law and Grandfather to Tribals, and a Likudnik Sympathizer.

    Yours Truly probably would have been in that “Likudnik Sympathizer” Collective during my Christian Years. Ironically, after I studied Judaism+Hebrew for several years, the Socialpathic Factions of the Tribal Collective and Wannabe Cult Monkies – the Chabad, J4Js, Iranian Mitzrahi/Christian, renegade Synagogues, Christian “Deprogrammers”, Gay Catholics, Moonies, Mormons, JWs, Scientologists, Katherine Kulman, Quakers, Woketards, Black Jesus, and other Cultist intrusions into Career+Studies spiked up.

    Other SoCal Ethnic Enclaves, Multi-year Stalkers, and Copycat Hackers of my IT Work were involved in the Pandemonium(they effectively set up Flash Mobs to screw with in every angle possible for them, because they’re parasite-thieves); but mostly were Christo-Cult based and enabled.

    Strange thing was that the Jewish University Classes allowed their intrusions and harassments. Guess they didn’t have enough Jewish taking their own Courses…

    Only the Modern Orthodox and Sephardi Congregations seem to be of Normal, Serious Congregations.

    Don’t reflect well on the Core Tribal Collective – glad I didn’t Marry into the Tribe; and I’m glad I’m never going to take a Murican for a Wife nor will settle down in California and the rest of Murica…

    Living in Southern California – Land of Nosey Fruits+Nuts – for a few more months…

    Tall Fences make for Good Neighbors.

    I’m saddened by how Murica degenerated so much over the last several decades – squandering opportunities Post Cold-War into disastrous Conquests; but now we know more of the foolish Schemes expressed by the Hegemon-Plutarchy and their Vassal-Oligarchs.

    Likudnik BoneSpurs has at best 4 more Years.

    Hope Non-Mason/Jewish/Catholic/ChristoZionist White+East Asians Murican Patriots can Emigrate or Secede; and if Murica can abolish Political Parties and convert to funding Elections through limited ceiling Crowdfunding matched by Federal+State Funding…

    Majority culture? Their culture represents THE COMMON CULTURE for the vast majority of this country’s existence. Some people left for greener pastures and found them, some left for greener pastures, didn’t find them and returned home, some left for greener pastures, didn’t find them and stayed anyway. Vance’s hometown was, at one time, the land of opportunity for the people settling it. Is your definition of “majority culture” one where all people with a work ethic are rootless cosmopolitans?

    From long and often close personal observation, your description fits with the type of White that Leftists, Corporations, the Jews, and the Deep State groom and promote. These are soulless shells and fashioning these types into soldiers to be used to destroy White humanity seems to be no difficult task. (Like “Manchurian Candidates,” these individuals fit the bill of the etymological origin of the term “cuckold.”)

    I do not know enough about this Republican presidential running mate to judge if your description accurately applies to the specific individual, but I find the implications to be chilling. The profile you constructed is true to life of what appears to be an archetype and key component of our enemy’s genocidal playbook.

  60. MAGA is dead after Trump. It actually never existed to be honest. Trump will give you more war, an even more rushing debt load, and the total sellout of conservative social issues. What is almost comical is that this was all revealed during Trump’s term in office and people still have this unexplainable love for the guy. The woke folks are bat shit crazy, but the MAGA folks are just engaging in massive self deception. They always have been from the get go though. Even before Trump came on the scene. All the GOP has to do is roll out a new face that isn’t connected with the old regime and people fool themselves that this person is different and truly is for them. Thing is these people don’t exist for the most part, and when they do (Buchanan, Paul), the MSM gets the idiots to vote for the bought off mainstream candidate, telling the masses these guys are unelectable. Well guess what? Both men mentioned were frigging Nostradamuses and had very little to no baggage. Bottom line is that Americanus Boobus deserves what he gets. H.L. Mencken was the ultimate Nostradamus, he figured this shit out almost a century ago. People love to engage in self deception as they are lazy and even worse, cowardly. Our government is 1000 times worse than the British colonial government, yet no real call to arms. What did we do?

    When the Democrats eventually get all three houses they will not be able to turn down mass immigration from a country like Haiti that will inevitably have an economic or environmental disaster. They’ll in fact blame Whites for climate change/colonial spirts and tell us that we “only” need to take half the population.

    The US is on a disaster course until it grows up and faces the unfortunate reality of race.

    Unfortunately the Republicans seem to evolving into the opposite – all of the policy vices of Reagan 1980 and Trump 2016, without any of the virtues of either.

    Trump should have picked Kris Kobach as his running mate in 2016. Like Pence, Kobach is an Evangelical Christian and a Midwestern nice guy, but unlike Pence he was ideologically committed to America First, especially with regards to immigration.

    1980 Reagan was similar to 2016 Trump. Both were seen as manifestations of the radical right. Both were opposed by the Republican establishment, the media, and Hollywood. Both won surprise victories despite the odds.

    The big difference is, Reagan successfully stayed the course and followed through. From the very first day of his presidency he consistently fought for his transformative platform. He won the Cold War, controlled inflation, cut taxes and regulations, and began transforming the Supreme Court with conservative appointments such as Scalia. The American people reaped the benefits and rewarded Reagan with a landslide victory in 1984.

    President Trump, on the other hand, did not implement America First. He used the platform as a tool to defeat his Republican primary opponents, and then to defeat Hillary Clinton. But after Hillary conceded, America First seemingly had served its purpose. Instead of the landslide victory which would have rewarded a transformative first term, Trump saw a return to old voting patterns, with 2020 being a virtual repeat of 2012.

  69. Vance is intelligent and much more intellectual than the other MAGA figures.

    Well then that is a pretty low bar.

    Vance depicts himself as ‘Merica First…maybe second and then spends a lot of time on abortion. He also positions himself as representing rural America.

    Well most abortions do not happen in rural America and Republicans would not want to pay the daddy bills of all the Black children that would come forth and multiply as a result of a total ban.

    Vance is just another Fox News conservative. Hannity says we should be focused on abortion right now? OK FOX I WILL DO AS YOU COMMAND.

    He also told us that the US should not become entangled in the Middle East but that Israel needs to be an exception. Well Vance that exception is the entanglement of the whole damn area. It’s like saying I don’t want to get involved in a fight with my wife tonight but I will bring up that issue that always results in a fight.

Obviously, the “Biden” Regime and the greater Globalist sphere are pathologically opposed to Putin and do not care about an escalation to WW3. (They still could cause WW3 as a campaign strategy.) Blustery Trump talks tough and then seduces or coerces deals that typically are innocuous at worst, when he wins. Trump has spoken negatively about NATO, in the past.

    PB laid out what was wrong with modern conservatism and how it needed to be fixed.

    He was ignored and I don’t think most modern conservatives would even understand his message.

    They would translate any populist spending to “socialism” even if you went over the political strategy a dozen times. You could explain how the GOP can’t continue to win on abortion or low taxes and yet they would still look at a populist economic platform and say……..yea but that’s socialism.

    I’ve asked conservatives how they can sell a low tax platform if half the country doesn’t pay income taxes. They respond with comments like “well that is the base of the Democrats” as if I don’t understand how the Democrats get votes. They can’t comprehend the idea of moving towards economic populism while rejecting liberal social degeneracy. They have been too indoctrinated into believing that any government spending is wrong and should be rejected. When they lose it doesn’t even matter to them. They seem to be fine with accepting that conservatism is rejected in many areas.

  75. By picking Vance as his VP, Trump has already compromised serving his MAGA working class political base. Consider:

    In 2020, 25 Silicon Valley high-tech firms specializing in non-essential services (software, artificial intelligence, entertainment, exercise, etc.) provided $90 million to BLM and Soros gave $35 million to Antifa to foment urban riots, arson, crime waves and destruction of the small business sector in big cities that were competing for the same customer market (mom and pop restaurants, gyms, ethnic grocery stores, bowling alleys, vitamin stores, auto repair shops, etc.). Moreover, oligarchs provided funding for selected county prosecutors and judges to exonerate those committing such crimes and releasing them from incarceration. This was a blatant regulatory taking and wealth transfer to oligarch owned corporations without any filing of violations of federal racketeering laws or just compensation in the courts. It was one-sided guerrilla warfare by oligarchs against the working class and independent businesses and contractors.

    It does not appear that the Silicon Valley investment firm that JD Vance worked for was directly involved in this ongoing uncivil war. Nonetheless, Vance is a member of the financier class and he and his wife work for oligarchs and their law firms. How can Trump consider himself as serving the interests of the working class that his VP and some of his largest donors are in an uncivil war with his MAGA political base? Isn’t Trump already a “captured president?” Below is part of a speech delivered by Caius Memmius, Tribune of the Plebians in Rome in 111 BC titled On a Corrupt Oligarchy who opposed and exposed the corruption of the oligarchs:

    “Of mutual trust, or concord, what hope is there? They wish to be lords, you desire to be free; they seek to inflict injury, you to repel it; they treat your allies as enemies, your enemies as allies. With feelings so opposite, can peace of friendship subsist between you? I warn, therefore, and exhort you, not to allow such enormous dishonesty to go unpunished. It is not an embezzlement of the public money that has been committed; nor is it forcible extortion of money from your allies – offenses which, though great, are now, from their frequency, considered as nothing; but the authority of the senate and your own power, have been sacrificed to the bitterest of enemies, and the public interest has been betrayed for money, both at home and abroad; and unless these misdeeds be investigated, and punishment be inflicted on the guilty, what remains for us but to live as slaves of those who committed them? For those who do what they will with impunity are undoubtedly kings”.

The pure and plentiful aquifer water is a big attraction. A Rothschild scion bought a huge vinayard in Argentina and then thought of buying up a lot of land around it for more splendid isolation. It was national patrimony, not private land, so there was a lot of opposition, protests, but then miraculously it evaporated and he got his wish.

    Russia is 111th in abortion rate in the countries of the world [out of 154]. And that figure is declining, as a national all out effort is underway to promote large families. Historically, during the Soviet era, contraceptives were not available, whereas in the West, they were commoditized in the 196os. Thus, abortion was used as a contraception substitution. From over 2 million abortions performed in 2000, to 500 thousand today is a sign of progress.

    Both Putin and JD would not like your slander of the Jewish people. Putin in fact has antisemitism laws to protect them from people like yourself.

    One overriding factor is that Trump is a businessman, who like people that deal in the real of results and outcomes [engineers, surgeons, doctors, project managers, concrete result dependent, etc]. He is known for loyalty, but he also expects it. He is known to be a great friend to have.

They are not Americans by virtue of the very fact they cling to and feel superiority toward us because of their Indian heritage. God help us if they succeed in turning America into another India or France.

    According to Wikipedia, India has just short of 500 medical diploma mills run as businesses that churn out, not doctors, but Indians learning English and grilled in passing the physician’s licensing laws which they’re allowed to take in all 50 states to prevent the necessary medical schools from being built in America that would naturally favor the top white male students. Indians are here to displace equally or better qualified and intelligent white American males, and anyone saying otherwise is full of shit.

    Many if not most graduate with a 5-1/2 year MBBS, or bachelor of medicine/bachelor of surgery, which is probably not equal to a typical nursing program in an American university. According to an English-language blog run by Indian med school professors, India is so corrupt that parents with money can buy their children not only a seat in med school, but their grades as well. No doubt this will be countered by the obvious fact that many Indians are actual competent MD’s, but what about the vast majority practicing medicine in America?

    Reuters ran a series of articles about the abysmal qualifications of Indian doctors, not in relation to America or GB, but as a supposed expose of malpractice in the remote Indian provinces where medical schools often have almost no medically qualified staff to speak of. This sort of parasitism no doubt also applies to the CEO plague and their presence in Wall Street hucksterism as well. They have no place here.

    No, because they aren’t idiots. But Robert Stark keeps dreaming about his free money.

    “Basic income” actually means: Welfare with no demands placed.

    Even Europe’s worst social democrats, i.e. in Sweden, realized decades ago that this is idiotic. Even though they never said openly that the Right was right all along, they quietly changed their policies to place demands on people before they get to live like parasites off other people’s money.

    So that you have to show up to classes if you receive welfare. Classes in how to look for a job. Above all this is to make sure that the welfare recipients don’t just get up late in the day and stay at home. They also have to actively search for a job, and show that they apply. And after they have gone through said classes, they have to take part in job programs, where they work in a store or warehouse in order to get their welfare money.

    But Robert Stark wants his welfare money without doing any of that.

    Finland recently tried “UBI” for 2,000 or so people, but stopped the experiment with the taxpayers’ money after just a few months since it was ridiculous. It didn’t lead to people “accomplishing their dreams” or whatever other fantasies a communist like Robert Stark can come up with. They just took the money and did nothing.

    Following his alleged assassination attempt in which Trump claims he was saved by ‘turning to the right’ is elite-signalling that the country will turn right.

    It’s all coordinated. The Democrats implode with Biden’s announcement that he is stepping down all while the Republicans unite around a fake assassination attempt.

    The baton passes from the Commie left hand path to the Zionist/nationalist right hand path.

Our foreign policy is largely controlled by Israel and its domestic fifth column. Much of our national culture, if it can even be called that, is filthy and rotten. And we Whites are being turned into a despised minority in our own land.

    Will Trump change this? Absolutely not. If anything, he will make some of these problems even worse.

    Forget about trying to revive this country by voting. Anyone who might seriously challenge the status quo will never be allowed by ZOG to get onto a ballot.

    So, worse is better. Political polarization and instability are to be desired. The sooner the country breaks up into territories like the USSR did, the more freedom we will have to form homogeneous communities, each constructed according to the beliefs of its residents. Leftist types can have their multi-racial utopias, White nationalists can have their space, and so on. As a bonus, the world will be safer from ZOG imperialism. (Because numerous US states possess nuclear weapons, such a breakup scenario will not lead to us being conquered by a foreign military.)

    Here’s an example of what MAGA means:

    Trump White House was warned sanctions on Venezuela could fuel migrationThe internal debate over the policy underscores how U.S. financial measures can sometimes lead to unintended consequences

    It means kneejerk reactions like firing cruise missiles into Syria, or short-sighted counterproductive stupidity like sanctions on Venezuela.

    The reason the US talks about ‘rules based order’ rather than ‘international law’ is because the latter is a quagmire, and the US itself either regularly ignores ‘international law’, or supports other nations that do, e.g. Israel — instead the US just does what it wants, then calls that ‘rules based order’, in particular levying financial sanctions against nations the US claims violate ‘rules’ the US makes up to suit itself and its interests.

Amazing how much he’s warmed to Trump’s outlook now that Peter Thiel, Vance’s homosexual, billionaire sponsor, brokered Vance’s Mar-a-Lago reconciliation with Trump in service to Vance’s political ambitions and Thiel’s globalist endeavors.” The observations about the clip are, again, accurate and borne out by the content of the clip. The rest of what I wrote is accurate information about Peter Thiel and his role in Vance’s and Trump’s relationship and political careers. Request supporting documentation if you like, or refute it if you can, but don’t simply wave it off with the very action that you presume to project onto me.

    It looks like intellectual laziness to me, or worse. Even animals with black and white vision are able to see gray.

    I agree; you are fooling no one.

    Since the content of the videos you appended to your previous comment amply supports my observations about said videos, the “evidence, reference, collaboration, or support” you seem desirous of must be in regard to my comments about Peter Thiel, since he’s the only other thing I commented on. The article at the link below should suffice to get the ball rolling in the direction of educating you:

    Fair points, but there are far more european (heavily German) places to live in Brazil, and in much smaller, safer cities.

    I guess these tracking algorithms do a lot. I never watch CNN. But I guess because I clicked on this story to read a few days ago the algorithm recommended a CNN video of a transgender former law school friend of Vance. The person gave CNN email exchanges that took place between them. Personally I think it should be illegal to disclose things like that in public without the party’s consent.
    But alas…. Basically “it” (I think it was born a man) said that Vance and his wife were liberal in law school and they seem completely phony now. I won’t forward the video because I don’t believe in CNN getting views – but it should be prominent if you search for it. So it will be interesting to see if he says the emails are fake or not

    Trump gave a speech on how great the sanctions were and how Venezuela was about to collapse and the U.S. would have taken over…. But then it was Biden’s fault. But yeah its been known for decades now that destabilizing countries causes mass migration

    Obviously he’s a phony prick, opportunistically pursuing advancement at the expense of the country he ostensibly serves.

    Picking your battles carefully does not make you a phony prick in politics. I could see him splitting the baby on Jewish issues, yes on Israel but no on Ukraine or the other way around. He isn’t going to be leading the charge like Paul Ryan would or Ted Cruz is doing, I hope, but conversely I don’t see him volunteering for any duty on their behalf he doesn’t have to. Maybe that’s me being optimistic.

    He wasn’t warm to Trump’s outlook when he ran for senate in OH? That’s going to surprise my Ohio friends who’ve been calling him a strong Trump supporter for some time.

    I’m inclined to see your comment as sarcasm, but on the off chance that you’re serious, you should know that it’s fairly common knowledge that Vance was a never-Trumper not long ago.

    No, no it doesn’t. Being a phony prick makes one a phony prick.

    I did not criticize Vance for ‘picking [his] battles’; I criticized him for being a phony prick.

  157. my Ohio friends who’ve been calling him [J.D. Vance] a strong Trump supporter for some time.

    You and your Ohio friends are clueless about what J.D. Vance really thought (and likely still thinks) of Donald J Chump. Click on the link below titled ‘JD Vance once branded Trump ‘America’s Hitler’ and called his voters ‘idiots’, and enlighten yourself:

    https://www.the-express.com/news/politics/143273/jd-vance-vice-president-donald-trump-fox-thoughts

    From the article:

    Vance, author of best-selling memoir-turned-movie “Hillbilly Elegy,” said that Trump is a “cynical a**hole” who is “America’s Hitler” that only an “idiot” would vote to the highest office in the country.

    Vance has previously said that he is “a never Trump guy” who “never liked him” and thinks he is a “terrible candidate” who might be “America’s Hitler.” He added that he was a “noxious” and “reprehensible,” “cynical a**hole” and “cultural heroine.”

    “I can’t stomach Trump,” he once said according to The Washington Post.

    He described Trump’s “actual policy proposals,” as ranging “from immoral to absurd” in a 2016 opinion column for USA Today.

    Got it now Curie? Has that ‘cured’ you of your foolishness?

    Scroll up to my comment # 13 in this thread, and watch the video I posted there.
    The brilliant and objective Whitney Webb will tell you all you need to know about Vance.

    SUMMARY: J.D. Vance hates Donald Chump’s guts – and that feeling is reciprocated by the Orang-U-tan.
    But, ZOG has decreed that Vance will be on the ticket – and what ZOG wants, ZOG gets.

    Not sarcasm. My Ohio Trump
    loyalist friend loves Vance, attends his fundraisers and sent me a photo of her with him during Vance’s last election. Another female OH born and bred friend has been all in for Trump since 2016 and was/is enthusiastic for Vance. Do you have a timeline for not long ago? 2016, earlier? I don’t doubt that Vance shifted somewhere in the past but it seems to be old news now.

    The article you cite states this in the headline:
    “JD Vance once branded Trump ‘America’s Hitler’ and called his voters ‘idiots’
    Before being tapped as the Vice President” but offers no dates for the statement either in the headline or the text of the story, probably for a reason. Things change. Ohio Rs seem to love Vance now.

    I agree with the assessment made in this video, regarding President Trump’s commitment to humanitarian peace deals. Once again, this illustrates Trump’s marginal independence of Jewish will, which has been his albatross since the notorious Republican Jewish Coalition Forum speech in 2015. (“You’re not going to support me even though I’m going to be the best thing that ever happened to Israel, and I know why you’re not going to support me, it’s because I don’t want your money.”)

    What I find most lamentable here and elsewhere is the lack of concern or coverage for the situation in the Ukraine. I see the Ukraine conflict as the takeover of a nation for the cause of Greater Israel and I see the death toll as the ethnic cleansing of White people for the benefit of the Jewish people. The parallels and symmetry of the two events are not coincidence. This is a two front war of conquest for Israel. Even with practical concessions given to Russia, the leverage Israel gains with control of the Ukraine is enormous. It will make the Ukraine a heavy wedge aimed at the heart of Europe, opening Europe to invasion by every conceivable Asian and Islamic horde. President Trump can end the ethnic cleansing of the Ukraine, but the global swamp must be drained of Jewish power or Whites will become extinct relatively quickly.

    He has the intellectual maturity of an 8th grader — follow the link to see what Trump recently said about Venezuela and sanctions.

    X/Michael Tracey

    Trump complains that Joe and Kamala temporarily lifted, and then later re-imposed, a subset of Trump-era sanctions designed to crush the Venezuelan economy. He doesn’t seem to have reflected on the wisdom of trying to impose regime change by inflicting mass economic immiseration
