The truth of the matter is that they intend to enact Martial Law regardless of whether it's in reaction to an organic event or a manufactured one.
The only difference is that they will be fully prepared and ready for action when they unleash the manufactured event.

I'd definitely read it if one were to be published.
I'd love to learn more about the Southwark Stews (more 16th century really) and the perils of operating or working in a bawdy house during the time of the Shrove Tuesday Riots and Bawdy House Riots.

You know, what would make this even more awesome.

The petition is a cover for data scraping. The bait of 1 million dollars maximises the number of respondents.
We should be asking why Elon needs to have a large database containing the identities of potential voters in this race.
Why didn't anyone ask in 2024?

You're forgetting about the prior data scraping done via his America PAC voting registration service. He shifted focus to the lottery petition after the misdirection and data scraping of Swing State voter information was noticed and publicised.

Elon Musk's PAC is misdirecting and scraping data from unknowing swing-state voters
The right-wing billionaire's election-swaying efforts now include a campaign to data mine and misdirect key voters

Maybe it's my subconscious reminding me how goddamn scary the US is looking right now.
Thanks subconscious brain...I really didn't need the reminder.

Interesting. It has been reported that Opus Dei operatives have infiltrated Australian politics over the past two decades but it looks like they've been just as busy on a global scale.

I'm starting to think that this administration's interest in attacking and/or ceasing mandatory vaccination is actually a covert method of population control.

Not because they represented Hillary Clinton but because they hired Fusion GPS who uncovered Trump's links to Russia via opposition research in the lead up to the 2016 presidential election.
The release of the Steele Dossier was the first time Trump's links to Russia were made public.

This is probably a dumb question but i'm going to ask it regardless. Do you happen to know the family (or genus) of the specimen that left this footcast?

Can confirm. I have a soon to be 12 year old that's ornery, trashes his room every day, eats like there's no tomorrow and has cost me a small fortune in vet bills over the years.

Jokes on them. The fascists don't know anything about them and are just as desperate to find out.
Governments around the world know they exist but don't know much more than that and they intend to keep it that way.
They can't even use any retrieved tech, they can only attempt reverse engineering.

To be fair, they wouldn't be telling Putin anything he hadn't already learned from Trump himself.

They really don't seem to understand that they are dealing with an enemy that doesn't play by the rules and is relying on their unwillingness to break the rules in order to win.

So now you need to figure out what news story he was trying to minimise by flooding the news cycle with Tariff talk.
From now on, whenever he talks tariffs or releases some other deliberately divisive statement, look for the real story he's trying to cover up and amplify it.

Yes, i've watched it all unfold around the world for nearly 20 years. What's happening in the US is part of a global project to destroy democracy using the same methods.
All western democracies are under attack from an enemy adept at waging a non conventional war. I just wish they'd recognise it.

Some people have been trying to warn America for over a decade about this, only to see the warnings remain unheard and events unfold.
Even Australia knew about his close links with OC back in the late 1980's around the time this all started. US intelligence agencies have failed big time.

I find it ominous. They know what they're doing to people and they don't care about repercussions.
So I ask myself, why don't they care about repercussions?
The only answer I can come up with is they think their administration is unassailable, elections no longer matter and people are expendable.
