So you may have noticed we've got an old school valance at the bottom of this base share instead of a reference to All Means Necessary. Tropical Soulvangelical admonishes the whole lot of you not to think he has somehow changed his mind regarding taking All Means Necessary to achieve needed goals. He has noticed that since the tragedy in Utah, you're hearing less and less of the phrase "You're Next." It seems as though when that kind of inflammatory language gets used, an eventual tragedy becomes harder and harder to avoid on the horizon. At the present time, TSV has been thinking about his health care with respect to the current shutdown, and he keeps looking at the exchange and state sites, and as of this writing they haven't made any impacted announcements. His current bill has a normal balance on it, but he remains vigilant. That said, he also remains defiant against what appears to him to be a general notion by the central donkeys that he give up his opposition to the central donkeys' anti-Biden stance in exchange for health care. He's not going to give up one thing for another. But doing activism the way the anti-Biden central donkeys want him to he sees as getting involved with all the different conflations health care as through the shutdown to things like the Epstein Files and the demolition of the East Wing. Where the demolition is concerned, he hasn't heard whether there's been a challenge in court accordingly, and why such a challenge would be taking place after the fact in such a passive aggressive fashion. The minute people heard -trump- saying he's not going to demolish the East Wing was when those same people TSV tells them to chain themselves to the East Wing so when the steam shovel shows up that morning, the guy at the controls goes, sir, we've got a problem. Oh, and another conflation and one in which TSV also excoriates the complacent populace with had to do with Mike Johnson's refusal to seat that one House Member and nobody challenging that one as undemocratic. It feels undemocratic to TSV at least, but because it's not -trump- doing it, the conventional thinking he's seeing is not that it's undemocratic but just simply improper. He's happy that the AG of Arizona's suing Johnson over it, but he doesn't think that'll rattle Johnson in any way shape or form. TSV believes that Johnson will publicly score the lawsuit as frivolous and in need of tort reform, and TSV doesn't think anyone will challenge him on it with a witty rejoinder. He hopes for quick action on this one in days to come, but he doesn't think people will feel relaxed enough to make witty rejoinders to everything Johnson says for their being so anxious about the future. This is partly how future anxiety in general TSV observes actually -obstructs- effective action rather than promotes it. What was it that Johnson said? That if -trump- were a king, the government would be open already? All that TSV heard in response from the complacent populace is crickets. TSV regards George Santos not as a free man, but as an escapee. TSV sees that Santos has 6 years and 9 months left on his sentence, and TSV has requested that Santos serve the rest of that time in the jail hereafter with the devil as his warden. Escape? Impossible. Same thing with the 1/6 people and the reality TV show actors. A number of them, too, TSV sees as having time left on their sentences, and a number of them he's sure will commit more crimes in the future. Once they get nailed for that, TSV also requests that whatever time they didn't serve because of a pardon or a commutation be added to the time they serve for future crimes while below the max for those crimes. Nobody but TSV (and myself the Happy Bachelor) are saying this.
