Iâm sorry to say but I think the USA is now the worldâs newest dictatorship. Iâm not sure when exactly the transition happened but itâs certainly how it feels now.

They are doing all they can to eliminate the Democratic party. Many states have now redrawn their districts to favor Republican voters. They are threatening and look to be prepping the groundwork to arrest Dem leaders. The Republicans refuse to return to the Capital to work on ending the government shutdown, that way they can blame Dems. And T continues his âitâs all Bidenâs faultâ rants to cement dislike for Dems in peopleâs minds.
There continues to be talk of his son succeeding him.
Remember, he adores the Arabs. Many of whom have royal families.
When people tried to compare T to Putin, they missed the mark. That isnât who he is emulating.

Here in Europe, we used to have a problem with our Kings. Kind of a Catch 22 thing, known as the âDivine Rightâ. It goes something like this:
I couldnât have become King unless God wanted me to. Therefore:
I am King by the will of God. Therefore;
Anything I say or require has the approval of God. And:
Anyone who opposes my rule opposes the will of God (and is punished accordingly, often in painful and inventive ways).
Basically, it means that once you have a Royal lineage, they can do what they like, and you canât get rid of them.

Uh huh. Just like ancient EgyptâŚand they still have a royal family.
Remember T almost got shot, but didnâtâŚbecause âGod protected himââŚ

Itâs hard to catch the overton window on that one since the shift was based on an absolute mirage founded on fear and confusion.
But there certainly has been one, steadily nudged over the last eight years and not stopped by the people who had the power to do so because there was too much profit in the spin.
Pretty much everything that has been done in this second term has been to push it over that last hurdle, all laid out in a little document they refuse to acknowledge association with but seem to be following to a T.
The only thing they speak truth to is the terrorism happening within the state, which is the complete dismantling of all public safety nets and safeguards by the administration, while they point the finger elsewhere and think Robocop is a factual representation of modern day American âleft leaningâ cities or something.
Itâs painfully obvious when you take a step back and look at the bigger picture of this manâs entire presidential career.
They are and always will be the âI know you are but what am Iâ regime. Just a bunch of insecure adult children projecting their own narrow view of people and the world and their worst desires and deeds onto others and hoping nobody notices.
Everything Trump and trump adjacent allies accuse others of doing or have done are the very things theyâve always done or been caught red handed doing in the past, to the point it feels like I woke up in some absurd and whacky version of reality.
But thatâs reality. The man in what is known as the highest seat in governance is coasting off of the I am Rubber and you are Glue principal.

Itâs an interesting coincidence that I saw this story last nightâŚwhich is three days or so after I was mentioning the armyâs capped over research site out in Idaho. Suffice to say they have had this idea for a looooong time, but dead people buried under a big concrete seal seems to have cramped their style until now.
I wonder what changed? /s

And couple that with the mass exodus of journalists who refuse to report only what they are told toâŚ
If you see an ad for extra income thru patriotic volunteer work, think twice. Especially if it says something about wearing goggles and laying in ditches.
I also read about how they are bypassing many environmental protocol to get the AI data centers up in months rather than years and the need to power them will reach crisis mode quickly as the current grid cannot support them. They need these mini nuke plants ASAP.
There is nothing like experimenting as you go. When your money flows like a river due to billions being available, you can afford to blow a lot of crap up along the way.

Yeah, if you have endless money blowing stuff up usually isnât a problem. Throw up some caution tape barriers, bring in some garbage trucks to haul away the debris, pay off any damaged witnesses, and people by and large will forget pretty quickly that there was ever a problem. The difference here is that previous experience tells us that there can be problems that cannot be cleaned up. An acre of concrete several feet thick in the middle of the desert with a safe stay time on top of the concrete measured in days, as opposed to the minutes or even less before the concrete was poured, will be forgotten but put a similar âclean upâ over some parking area on the outskirts of town and people will be reminded of your errors for several decades.

You do realize the irony in all of thisâŚ.the conspiracy theorists are now in charge which means anyone who can see the path they are laying now sounds like the new conspiracy theorists.
Try to expose any said cover ups, and this is what a person would be portrayed as. The new nuts on the block.

I donât think we qualify as conspiracy theorists until after they blow something up and we cast doubt on their claim that the giant concrete cap where the east side of town used to be is a monument to prosperity.
The insurmountable problem of these âmini reactorsâ is that ALL reactors are basically mini reactors. The active core of a nuclear power plant is a relative pinprick in the total mass. When you look at a nuclear power plant you see generally two very massive things: the cooling towers, which are just there to dissipate the enormous waste heat that you are creating that you cannot catch and use, and the containment building. Inside that containment build is a much smaller building containing the reactor and all of its operating equipment, with the equipment taking up most of that space.
So at the end of the day you can say âwell, we are going for smaller amounts of power, not trying to power the eastern seaboard electrical grid,â but that doesnât reduce the cooling towers or containment building to really manageable size. Sure, they are smaller, but they still arenât going to fit on a truck. To put a reactor on a truck you have to be willing to risk âContainment? We donât need no stinking containment!â

Another factor to bear in mind is economy of scale. A small number of large, fixed reactor facilities allows for pretty robust perimiter and internal security (manpower, buildings, infrastructure, organisation) - something much harder to achieve with a large number of small, potentially mobile, reactors. The hazards of small reactors are just the same as from large ones, and they are equally attractive to bad actors - but small reactors are much harder to secure.

As someone who at one time had a viable plan for stealing a nuclear submarine I agree completely.

Whilst I donât think anyone here is seriously contemplating widespread use of truck-mounted mobile reactors, we are certainly moving in the direction of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs).
