JDivian Vance, vice president of the United States, is a man of great ambition. He is also a man of great unpopularity. These things generally cancel each other out in the life of a politician. But Vance’s impression of his own importance is so solid that this rule no longer applies. And it appears that he may have found his own conservative Sanhedrin, one willing to pay the 30 pieces of silver it would take to sell out the boss, in the wilds of Montana. From the Associated Press:
Vice President JD Vance on Tuesday made a brief trip to Montana, where he spoke to media mogul Rupert Murdoch; his son Lachlan Murdoch, the head of Fox News and News Corp.; and a group of other Fox News executives, according to two people familiar with the trip. Vance met with the group at the Murdoch family ranch in southwest Montana near Dillon, according to the people. They confirmed the visit to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about it. It’s not clear why the vice president addressed the group or what they spoke about.
Fuck…, this is kinda starting to seem a lot like a standard Thiel style coup. Especially combined with the Trump health reports. On the one hand Vance doesn’t have the popularity to maintain a voter base, but on the other, if he replaces Trump as president he is going to waste no time getting rid of the last remaining scraps of democracy.
Everyone seems to think it was devious, but it’s also possible he went to meet them and then they published out of sheer loathing for the lot of them.
These billionaires hate each other almost as much as we do.
E: this will never not be funny to me
It seems a bit early for him to do this, but he has to kill his papa sooner or later.
“I am sorry, papa. It is time for ze spotlighten to shift to mine self.”
That would be a diabolical way to shift the MAGAts to his side. Just spin the story as him saving them from the one who betrayed them.
It’s the most consistent play in Russian politics. Since Lennin anyways.
geopolitics, firehood of falsehood, conspiracies all traces back to russia.
I said before the inauguration that they’d wait until just over halfway through the term before shuffling Vance in somehow. That allows Vance to have a chance at plausible deniability when the next 2 elections in a row are swung in his favor, thus giving him potentially 10 years to deploy the Curtis Yarvin techno-fascist playbook before even the most devoted acolytes finally accept what’s going on. I still think that is the techbro plan they hope to execute on. And I hope we can resist it.
Thank you for bringing Curtis Yarvin to these discussions. A lot of people don’t know about his involvement in everything we are seeing. Let’s not forget him when the time comes. :)
