Will Trump Put America First?

Simplicius reports on the recent panic in the Israeli media about the possibility that President Trump may have finally given up on the idea that what is good for the Jews is good for Americans, and in doing so, cites Jason Hickel’s apt observation of the obvious:

Palestine is the rock on which the West will break itself.

Put yourself in the shoes of people in the global South. For nearly two years they have watched how Western leaders, who love to talk about human rights and the rule of law, are happy to shred all these values in the most spectacular displays of hypocrisy in order to prop up their military proxy-state as it openly conducts genocide and ethnic cleansing against an occupied people, even in the face of *overwhelming* international condemnation.

What do you think people in the South are supposed to conclude from this? What would *you* conclude from this in their position? Decades of Western propaganda have been shattered, this time in full technicolour. Western governments have made it clear that they do not care about human rights and the rule of law when it comes to people of colour, the global majority. They spit on humanity. 500 years on from the beginning of the European colonial project and they have hardly changed in this regard.

If you think people will be willing to tolerate this going forward, you are mistaken. As Southern states begin to develop the capacity to reject Western hegemony, they will not hesitate to do so. In the 21st century, the West will find itself isolated from the world majority, and the world will move on without them.

Keep in mind that by “the West” what Hickel is really talking about is Clown World, which is the subversive anti-Christian elite that has ruled the West, first indirectly, then directly, since at least 1913 and possibly longer. China has already rejected Clown World supremacy. Russia has thrown off its oligarchs, but there are still some questions about Putin’s connections to Chabad, to which Donald Trump is tied through his daughter.

But while Trump is compromised and conflicted, as Simplicius notes, he also isn’t an idiot and he is not naturally inclined to go down the same futile path to destruction as his presidential predecessors.

Israel is in deep trouble, and has backed itself into an intractable corner. Trump likewise senses his entire legacy hangs in the balance of becoming another in a long line of warmongers, drowned—like past administrations before him—in the endless Mideast conflicts stoked by the perennial Israeli puppeteers. Will he have the courage to make the boldest and most decisive move possible?

Despite resorting to open genocide and ethnic cleansing, Israel still hasn’t been able to defeat Hamas, let alone Hezbollah. Attempts to enshrine Holocaustianity into US law are fanning the flames of genuine hatred, even as the younger generation across the West discovers who were the genuinely responsible parties for the invasion, degeneration, and decline of their societies.

Neocon Mark Levin is sufficiently panicked to say the quiet part out loud.

By the way, neocon is a pejorative for Jew. Unbelievable.

Think about what he’s admitting there. When the substance is intrinsically negative, every label eventually becomes a pejorative, due to the nature of what it is describing.

The truth is that it doesn’t really matter very much whether President Trump decides to do the right thing or if he fails due to a lack of courage. Events are going to take their course, the pendulum has been swinging back for ten years, and it will continue doing so for at least another fifty years, perhaps another century or more.

The Empire That Never Ended will survive, as it always does, hiding in the shadows and in the dark corners of various societies, and in the dark hearts of corrupt men, but its current form, which we know as Clown World, is already collapsing.

Carthago semper delenda est.

Build a Reserve

If the recent blackouts weren’t sufficient warning to rely excessively on your credit and debit cards, this recent announcement by the Spanish government effectively limiting cash withdrawals to EUR 3,000 should catch your attention:

New rules in Spain: cash withdrawals over €3,000 under strict control. From now on, anyone withdrawing €3,000 or more from a Spanish bank must notify the Agencia Tributaria (Spain’s tax agency) in advance. If you’re planning to take out €100,000 or more, you’ll need to give at least 72 hours’ notice. For smaller sums over €3,000, a 24-hour notification is mandatory. The warning must be filed through the tax agency’s official website using a digital certificate, Cl@ve PIN, or electronic ID card. You’ll receive a receipt that must be shown at the bank when withdrawing your cash.

Translation: there may be a significant bank failure on the horizon that will inspire bank runs and other financial issues. I don’t think this is about trying to push everyone toward the cashless society, not so soon after the blackouts there when all the cards were useless.

The Emptiest of Threats

The total emasculation of the European countries and the irrelevance of the US military has never been more obvious than seeing the British Prime Minister and other Clown World puppets shaking their tiny little fists at the Russians.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has ‘called Putin out’ and demanded ‘no ifs or buts’ as he joined world leaders in cranking up pressure on Russia to accept a ceasefire in Ukraine. The leaders of Britain, France, Germany and Poland arrived in Kyiv on Saturday for talks with Ukrainian President Zelensky in a show of unity of the ‘coalition of the willing’, a day after Putin hosted his allies for a Red Square Victory Day parade.

Speaking in a press conference alongside his European counterparts, Sir Keir said Europe is ‘stepping up’ on the 80th anniversary of VE day to secure Ukraine’s long-term future – after Putin called a three-day ceasefire for his Moscow event.

‘Volodymyr, we stand with you to secure the just and lasting peace that Ukraine deserves,’ the PM said.

‘It’s almost two months now since you agreed to an immediate 30 day ceasefire. In that time, Russia has launched some of the most deadly attacks on civilians of the entire war, including here in Kyiv. Normal lives, homes, families, destroyed.

‘This is what Russia offers in place of peace along with delays, smoke screens, like the current 72 hour ceasefire. And so all of us here together with the US are calling Putin out. 

‘If he’s serious about peace then he has a chance to show it now. By extending the VE day pause into a full unconditional 30 day ceasefire, with negotiations to follow immediately after a ceasefire is agreed. No more ifs and buts, no more conditions and delays. Putin didn’t need conditions when he wanted a ceasefire to have a parade. And he doesn’t need them now.’

This isn’t that hard. Putin wanted a parade. He doesn’t want Kiev to rearm its depleted military. If Kiev is going to rearm during a ceasefire, then there will be no ceasefire. Russia has already been through this twice already and does not intend to do so again.

Who, or what, do these clowns think they’re impressing? I think the only reason the Russians don’t simply hazeltree the lot of them at one of their bi-weekly ritual gatherings is because Putin knows that even if their posturing is tedious and annoying, their ineffectual non-leadership isn’t getting in the way of the Russians achieving their objectives.

It’s like a spin on the old Robin Williams joke. “Sanctions! Now stop, or I shall sanction you again!”

When Society Fears its Veterans

It is a society that no one will defend and is not long for this world. A veteran of the Iraqi War explains that he’s not merely a “right-winger” but a man who was betrayed by his government.

Everyone thinks I’m a right winger but they are wrong. That’s way too simple of an explanation. I’m a product. I’m a result. I’m what happens when society kicks the can of betrayal down the road for too long. I am unfortunately necessary. I will never negotiate with evil. I cannot be bought. I do not care about power. I do not care about money. I do not care about success. My dog in this fight isn’t any of these earthly trinkets everyone is grasping at. I am here for justice. I am here to make amends for the sins I’ve committed. I am here to witness the evil so it can be judged. I am here to be the voice for the weak, helpless, and silent. So help me God.

Meanwhile, the Russians are doing the precise opposite, by putting a plan in place to groom military veterans for political and business leadership, and ensuring they find an honored place in Russian society.

The program “Time of Heroes”, aimed at the development of participants and veterans of the SVO, starts today, its goal is to prepare managers to work in government, Dmitry Peskov said. Requirements for participants of the “Time of Heroes” program: citizenship of the Russian Federation, higher education, experience in managing people, participation in SVO and no criminal record. The program will be mentored by the heads of the presidential administration, governors, members of the government, mayors, heads of leading companies.

This is what is possible when a nation is not ruled by a foreign elite that fears its replacement by a nationalist elite.

They Won’t Protect You

One of the most difficult things for people to understand, and young women in particular, is that neither the police nor the government are there to protect them. To the contrary, all of the evidence demonstrates that they collectively regard young women as expendable whenever it is necessary to protect someone who is well-connected.

Bombshell new evidence in the murder of Julie Ward in Kenya was locked in a safe by Scotland Yard – allowing her suspected killer to escape justice, her family allege today.

The then Kenyan President’s playboy son Jonathan Moi should have been arrested after the explosive new testimony against him. But thanks to an alleged cover-up involving the Yard, the Foreign Office and the Kenyan authorities, he lived as a free man for the rest of his life.

Moi was never properly investigated, let alone brought to trial.

Perhaps most shocking of all is the alleged collusion of the British government and Scotland Yard in the international cover-up.

The police and the government are there to a) maintain public order and b) protect the elite from the masses. They have neither the responsibility nor the ability to protect individuals who insist on making themselves easy and obvious targets for the ill-intentioned. In fact, as the case of Julie Ward shows, they will even go so far as to hide the evidence left behind by the malefactors if the responsible parties are sufficiently well-connected.

Go With the Flow

On last night’s Darkstream I provided some examples of what is possible with the new Suno 4.5 system. It’s definitely an improvement, especially in terms of vocal quality and overall audio quality, and it does a much better job of sticking to the lyrics. Probably the most useful change is that the initial song limit is now 8 minutes, which means that it won’t keep cropping fully-outlined songs short and requiring an extension, although it still can’t do short extensions to simply end a song very well and the Replace Section editor appears to have its selection timing off by a few microseconds.

What impressed me most was the way it finally let me finish SIDDHARTHA in the way I wanted, as no amount of previous extensions and remasterings using 3.0, 3.5, or 4.0 succeeded in producing what I was looking to do. However, 4.5 allowed me to turn out a beautiful five-minute song that combines David Sylvian and Enigma with Herman Hesse, and it turned out so well that I intend to construct a full album around it once I finish the Byronics project this summer. But in the meantime, UATV subscribers can listen to it in higher-quality than any of the audio streaming services provide.

Speaking of UATV subscriptions, this is the right time to get on board with the new subscription-and-payment system if you haven’t started the process yet. I’ve also got the Darkstream up-to-date, and we’ll get Arkhaven Nights caught up sometime next week.

The Controlled Opposition

Fandom Pulse rhetorically jiu-jitsus the cucks and cons who are attempting, again, to read out the real Right and prevent it from influencing the impressionable youth, this time by inventing the nonsensical term “Woke Right”. But while “Woke Right” won’t stick, “Woke Lite” will, because the best rhetoric points toward the truth:

The term “Woke Lite” incisively captures a peculiar and insidious phenomenon within the evolving political landscape of the American Right. The Woke Lite are not conservatives in the traditional sense, nor are they the firebrand populists who fueled the MAGA movement’s ascendance in 2024. Instead, they are former liberals—or at least those steeped in liberal sensibilities—who have drifted rightward, not out of conviction, but out of opportunism and/or discomfort with the left’s excesses. These individuals now seek to control and gatekeep the newly ascendant Right, positioning themselves as arbiters of respectability while now undermining the very coalition that brought victory in 2024.

The Woke Lite did not build the 2024 coalition. That coalition—a vibrant, unruly alliance of working-class voters, cultural dissidents, and principled conservatives—was forged through years of the crucible of grassroots energy, defiance of establishment norms, and a rejection of both progressive overreach and milquetoast Republicanism. The Woke Lite, by contrast, often stood on the sidelines or at times actively opposed this movement. Many of them, still tethered to the aesthetics and instincts of their liberal pasts, recoil at the coalition’s use of power, its willingness to confront the left head-on, and its rejection of the old rules and norms of political engagement. Some even worked to undermine the coalition at key moments, clinging to outdated notions of “civility” or “bipartisanship” that served only to dilute the Right’s resolve.

Perhaps the most damaging aspect of the Woke Lite’s influence is their aversion to wielding power against the left. While the MAGA movement understands that politics is a contest of strength, the Woke Lite preach restraint, caution, and compromise. This creates a lopsided dynamic where the left, unencumbered by such hesitations, wielded power ruthlessly—through institutions, media, and lawfare—to advance its agenda unopposed. By opposing efforts to match the left’s intensity, the Woke Lite effectively ensured that the Right fought with one hand tied behind its back. Their insistence on “playing nice” was not a moral stance but a strategic surrender, allowing the left to dominate cultural and political battles.

There is always a fake controlled opposition being pushed as the only legitimate opposition. Sixty years ago, William F. Buckley was the Woke Lite attacking the “Woke Right” of the John Bircher movement. In the eighties, the neocons were the Woke Lite attacking the anti-NAFTA coalition. Then Richard Armitage and a bunch of attention seekers leaped in front of the Tea Party parade in order to steer it safely into irrelevance before it could threaten the Republican mainstream.

Now Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, the Weinstein brothers, and others in their orbit are trying to play defense for the SJWs by attacking Christian nationalists and anti-globalists. It’s not only the same playbook as previous controlled oppositions, it’s exactly the same play.

Only this time, it won’t work, because everything they have been pushing for the last sixty years is no longer idealistic theory, but failed reality.

It Was Never His

In which a leading Clown World custodian returns his ill-gotten gains to his masters:

Bill Gates has announced he will give away 99 percent of his immense fortune in the coming years, leaving one percent for himself and his children. The tech mogul is shuttering the Gates Foundation by December 31, 2045, effectively ending a lifelong project to give away his multi-billion fortune. He announced on Thursday that he plans to distribute ‘virtually all’ of his wealth, approximately $200 billion, within the next 20 years.

The Gates Foundation, which Gates founded in 2000 along with his ex-wife Melinda French Gates, who left the organization after her divorce with the Microsoft billionaire, pours billions of dollars every year into health, foreign aid and other public assistance programs.

Gates will hold onto just one percent of his wealth – which still equals out to an estimated $1.62 billion. He has three adult children he shares with Melinda – Phoebe, Rory, and Jennifer – whom will most likely inherit the remaining millions in cash Gates has upon his death.

These “charitable” announcements are more correctly read as admissions of how those who are perceived as being successful actually achieved their perceived “success”

Houthis 3, US Navy 0

Another F-18 was lost in the Red Sea, presumably due to its carrier having to take evasive maneuvers after being targeted by land-to-sea missiles from Yemen:

The US Navy has lost another fighter jet in the Red Sea, marking the second incident involving an F/A-18 Super Hornet from the USS Harry S. Truman in just over a week, and the third such loss since Washington intensified operations against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

The aircraft reportedly plunged into the sea after experiencing an arrestment failure while attempting to land on the carrier, forcing both the pilot and weapons systems officer to eject. CNN first reported the incident on Tuesday, citing multiple sources familiar with the matter.

“The arrestment failed, causing the aircraft to go overboard. Both aviators safely ejected and were rescued by a helicopter assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 11,” an unnamed defense official told USNI News. “The aviators were evaluated by medical personnel and assessed to have minor injuries. No flight deck personnel were injured.”

The incident reportedly occurred the same day the Iran-backed Houthi rebel group “took a shot” at the Truman, though it remains unclear whether the two events are connected.

That represents just under 1 percent of the US F-18 fleet lost to the Yemeni military, which is impressive in that Yemen does not even have an air force.

Perhaps more importantly, it tends to give the lie to President Trump’s unexpected claim yesterday that the Houthis have “capitulated” and have opened the Red Sea to the US Navy.
