Trump Elected: The True MAGA Era Begins, Now What?

Regarding the supposed rift between Trump and Netanyahu, Alexander Mercouris (who I think is one of the most serious and insightful analysts out there - not that I always agree with him, but mostly yes) thinks it's real, and he discusses it at length in one of his recent videos:


Trump doesn't like Netanyahu, and the recent video he posted of Jeffrey Sachs is a clear sign of it, as well as Bibi not going to the inauguration. (At first I thought that, being Trump, he probably didn't watch the video till the end and posted it as soon as he heard Obama was being criticized. :lol: But AFAIK he did not take the video down, so there it is!) That doesn't mean he supports Iran or is against Israel, but he also does not want to start another war, at least not when he is beggining his new term. Just this single item, together with Trump's willingness to talk to Putin, are more than enough good news, especially when considered against the alternative of Kamala Harris! I mean, can you imagine if Harris was to be inaugurated? We'd be looking down the barrel of WW3 from different angles, as well as a sort of dystopian techno-woke-idiocratic-dictatorship or something.

This totally made my week! I think that Trump posted this was another instance of divine intervention via Trump bumbling as he does. It's out there now. Bibi has been covfefed!

Still watching the Tucker interview but Jeffrey Sachs just lays it out so brilliantly so far.

Here is another excellent interview with Sachs. He is so very well informed about the Bibi/Israel problem. He describes the atrocities in Gaza which are so extreme. People need to hear this and maybe Trump will listen since I believe he knows Judge Napolitano, however I'm sure he already knows all about this.

 
According to this Biden made the deal. 🤪

" According to a source familiar with the details" sounds a bit suspect to me, one of those red flags. This is from an Israeli media outlet so not always known for accuracy. More will come out on this and we'll know whats really going on.

When a report starts like this it's a tell that fake news is coming. It's a tactic that DS uses often such as with the NYT's and WaPo. If the sources where solid they'd say what they are. Just for your information and something to look for.

Ahead of Trump’s inauguration, the FBI has shuttered its DEI office.

The agency confirmed to Fox News on Thursday, "In recent weeks, the FBI took steps to close the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI), effective by December 2024."

This comes as Trump has nominated Kash Patel for FBI director, and current FBI head Christopher Wray in December announced that he would resign before Trump took office.

In May, House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan sent a letter to Wray demanding information about the FBI’s use of DEI initiatives. Jordan wrote, "The law enforcement and intelligence capabilities of the FBI are degrading because the FBI is no longer hiring 'the best and brightest' candidates to fill the position of Special Agent of the FBI."

"An increasing number of lower quality candidates—described by one source as 'bread crumbs' because they were rejected by other federal law enforcement agencies—are applying to become FBI Special Agents; and the FBI is selecting those candidates to become FBI Special Agents because they satisfy the FBI's priority to meet Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) mandates."

Senator Marsha Blackburn sent a letter to Wray in early January saying that the FBI’s "radical" DEI practices had "endangered Americans." This came after the New Year’s Day terrorist attack in New Orleans. "I am deeply concerned that—under your leadership—the Bureau has prioritized Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives over its core mission of protecting the American people," Blackburn wrote.

The FBI’s page on diversity and inclusion on its website stated, The FBI is committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive workforce. In 2015, the FBI added diversity as one of the organization's core values."

"We believe that differences in thought and belief, in race and religion, in orientation, and in ability contribute to more effective decision making, drive innovation, and enhance the employee experience. We know that a more diverse workforce allows us to connect with and maintain the trust of the American people. We also understand we have work to do. We stand committed, as today’s FBI, to fostering a culture of inclusivity and diversity." This is a breaking story. Please refresh the page for updates.

The Supreme Court has upheld the law requiring China-based ByteDance to divest its ownership of TikTok by Sunday or face an effective ban of the popular social video app in the U.S.
Although President-elect Donald Trump could choose not to enforce the law, it’s unclear whether third-party internet service providers will support the app.

New York Mayor Eric Adams meets with Trump at Mar-A-Lago
"The mayor looks forward to having a productive conversation with the incoming president on how we can move our city and country forward.”
New York City Mayor Eric Adams flew to Florida on Thursday to meet with President-elect Donald J. Trump at Mar-a-Lago just days before the inauguration.

The Democratic mayor did not announce the trip in advance, but according to The New York Times, his aides said the two men would discuss “New Yorkers’ priorities” when they meet on Friday. Both men are born and raised New Yorkers and spent their careers working to better the city, Adams as a prosecutor, Trump as a real estate mogul.

Last week, Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) met with Trump at his Florida resort and earlier this month liberal prime minister of Canada Justin Trudeau flew down to meet with the president-elect.

The outlet reported that the mayor requested the meeting for a "city purpose.”

Trump and Adams have grown publicly closer since the mayor was indicted last year on federal corruption charges. Adams has claimed that the investigation and indictments are political retribution for his criticism of outgoing President Joe Biden’s immigration policies. Trump previously stated he would consider a pardon for Adams.

The mayor’s spokesman Fabien Levy said, “Mayor Adams has made quite clear his willingness to work with President-elect Trump and his incoming administration on behalf of New Yorkers — and that partnership with the federal government is critical to New York City’s success. The mayor looks forward to having a productive conversation with the incoming president on how we can move our city and country forward.”

Though Trump is from New York, in 2019 he changed his primary residence from Manhattan to Palm Beach, FL.

In the 2024 election, New York City moved more conservative, as did the rest of the state. Since Trump’s victory, Adams has repeatedly stated that he wanted to work with the president-elect, and not be at odds with him.

Adams also previously met with Trump’s incoming “border czar” Thomas Homan to discuss deporting illegal immigrants who had committed crimes in the city.

Interesting Trump just named Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone, as “Special Ambassadors” to Hollywood. A week ago, an action movie written by Sylvester Stallone dropped their trailer. It’s about human trafficking, run by corrupt government officials and the mob. It looks like Trump is expanding his influence to Hollywood, and I expect the Left to vehemently oppose this movie, just like they did with “Sound of Freedom.”

It was not very clear to me what WASP means even though with the collins dictionary meaning: "WASP is used to refer to the people in American society whose ancestors came from northern Europe, especially England, and who are considered to have a lot of power and influence. WASP is an abbreviation for 'White Anglo-Saxon Protestant'."

I found this more... elaborate definition, I still don't know if it is as Jalife refers it, at first msm glance it could be, but I don't think it is that simple. And Jews are certainly not excluded in this time.

They need money and they have to get it from somewhere, I guess. I was talking to a friend, she works for a Catholic NGO for migrants, despite all the alarms of threats of mass deportation, it will not be soon or easy. For each deportee there is a legal procedure, and being 11 million that he intends to deport, it will take time, unless - to calm the masses - he makes exceptions and deports them without legal process. Anyway, we already know that there will be sad stories, family separations, etc., this is not new.

You do not understand the WASP aristocracy if you do not understand that it was originally constructed not on the exclusion of Catholics or Jews or any of that. The most important demographic that the WASPs defined themselves against… was the southerners.
--
The WASPS were born with the Civil War. They were created by the marriage—often literal marriage—of two groups of people: newly wealthy industrialists (and their financiers) and older grandees and politicos from the Northeastern seaboard.
--
These two groups first joined together for the cause of the Union. First ideologically, then professionally and socially, and finally biologically, the two groups merged, creating a new leadership class. A leadership class for the union.
--
This is betrayed in the names of some of the oldest WASPy institutions, the ones that predate Groton and the rest (google: “Union Club”).
--
The aspiration of this class was to first destroy southern separatism, then weld together the disparate American peoples into an iron whole.
--
With a broken south and undeveloped west it was easy for the leaders of the northeast seaboard to see themselves not only as the leadership class of America, but as the defining *Americans.*
--
The WASPs conflated their peculiar regional flavor of American culture with American culture writ large. Through guns, but more often through institutions, they imposed this culture on just about everyone.
--
The WASPs today are closely associated with the “Americanization” of the immigrant populations in the 1900s-1920s.
--
But this was neither their first nor final attempt on the theme: the WASP saga began with an attempt to “Americanize” the south, and ended with an attempt to Americanize the world.
--
The irony here is that it was the very success of the WASP project—the transformation of the American peoples into a single industrialized nation whose culture and institutions mirrored their own—that paved the way for their displacement as America’s default leadership class.
--
People who fixate on the decline of the WASPs tend to focus on things like Harvard’s decision to use the SAT or the entry of Catholics and Jews in certain country clubs.
--
They would be better off talking about things like the Texas oil boom, or the ethnic composition of the scientists on the Manhattan project.
--
These structural changes in the sources of American wealth and power preceded the opening up of the old WASP redoubts to outsiders. Opening these institutions up was a bid to keep them relevant in a country where the WASPs were losing ground.
--
But the key thing here is that the new elites were all *American* elites. The grandsons of southern secessionists, the sons of catholic immigrants, the tycoons from Texas, the moguls from Hollywood, this flood of people now seizing the reins of power—
--
they too believed in one nation, indivisible. They were thoroughly Americanized. Not entirely—the southerners , midwesterners, blacks, and urban ethnics each still held their own peculiar political attachments.
--
But they largely assumed as bedrock truths so many things that the WASP elites from yesteryear agitated, fought, and died for in eras past.
--
The Bush family is perhaps the greatest symbol of the WASPs in decline. George H.W. Bush’s spiritual guide was a southern evangelical pastor.
--
His son did him one better. He became a southern evangelical himself. W’s conscious decision to reject his Andover roots for the sake of a Texan identity captures what happened to this class.
--
The Bush family joined the enemy—*became* the enemy. So did the entire WASP political arm (“the Republican Party”). But that is exactly the point—those fellows down in Texas were not the enemy anymore. They had been remade on WASPish lines.
--
The WASPs forged a new American nation—and then sunk into their creation. /FIN.

Hmmm, I don't know if "WASP aristocracy" = WASPs, but the KKK is largely southern, are called WASPS, and are commonly stated to be anti-Catholic, anti-Jewish, etc.

The BBC wrote: "Only WASPs could join the Klan. The KKK discriminated against black people, Roman Catholics, Jews and Mexicans."

It might be interesting to note that in the 1920s Charles Lewis Fowler (1877-1974), Baptist minister and educator, used white Anglo-Saxon Protestant when promoting the Ku Klux Klan, an extremist right-wing secret society in the USA
