Our freedom-hating Putin-loving Mad King is threatening Ukraine to accept his clownish, high school level 28-point peace plan or else

 

Perfidious Mad King Ludwig has continued to work behind the scenes with Russia and without Ukraine and the Europeans on a Ukrainian capitulation plan

Ukraine under pressure amid reports Russia and U.S. have devised a secret peace plan

 

... Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War said that if the reports are true, the 28-peace plan would amount to “Ukraine’s full capitulation and would set conditions for renewed Russian aggression against Ukraine.”

“The reported proposed peace plan would deprive Ukraine of critical defensive positions and capabilities necessary to defend against future Russian aggression, apparently in exchange for nothing,” the ISW analysts said Wednesday.

They noted it would “give this significant land to Russia — apparently for no specified compromise — sparing Russia the time, effort, and manpower that it could use elsewhere in Ukraine during renewed aggression.”

The ISW concluded that the plan, if verified, showed Russia’s maximalist territorial demands on Ukraine had essentially not changed since the initial invasion in 2022. “This reported peace plan is fundamentally the same as Russia’s 2022 Istanbul demands, which Russia presented to Ukraine when the circumstances on the battlefield appeared to favor Russia more heavily.”

It took Mad King Ludwig just one week to heed Cleta Mitchell's ridiculous advice and issue meaningless federal pardons to his fake elector schemers for their state crimes

Trump is still following specious legal reasoning in 2025 just like he did after losing in 2020.

... Among those also pardoned were Sidney Powell, an attorney who promoted baseless conspiracy theories about a stolen election, John Eastman, another lawyer who pushed a plan to keep Trump in power, and Jeffrey Clark, a former Justice Department official who championed Trump’s efforts to challenge his election loss. Also named were Republicans who acted as fake electors for Trump and were charged in state cases accusing them of submitting false certificates that confirmed they were legitimate electors despite Biden’s victory in those states. ...

More. 

 

 

Mad King Ludwig rages against the machine: When Trump pardoned the J6ers, figuring out who deserved it and who didn't was just too hard for him, and so is figuring out Obamacare

 He has no clue what to do about Obamacare, so he proposes murdering it.

It's his solution for everything else, so why not?

Kill the lawfully allocated federal spending, kill the federal workers administering it, kill the agencies they worked for, kill the inspectors general making sure you comply with the federal laws you break with every breath, kill Greenland, kill Canada, kill the Houthis, kill the Iranians, and kill the drug boat operators.

Are Venezuelans next? Nigerians? And how many U.S. citizens swept up in ICE raids will die in custody, like the 20 foreigners who already have? 

Bankrupting the insurance companies overnight as he is suggesting is simply the political equivalent of what Luigi Mangione did to the United Healthcare CEO.

These pronunciamentos he keeps uttering are piling up into one great heap of nothing more than a mountain of irritable mental gestures, if you don't count the actual bodies left behind.

Republicans repealed Obamacare 37 times after 2010, but it's still alive.

They still have nothing.

A sane person observes that the options are limited with a five seat majority in the U.S. House and a three seat majority in the U.S. Senate, but sane does not describe Mad King Ludwig. He is intent on shoving down the throats of the American people whatever he can no less than Democrats did with Obamacare fifteen years ago. The Uniparty, folks.

Everything Trump does is done with the subtlety of a brick. If only he restricted himself to building.

But that is impossible for him, because he has desires . . ..

 

 

 

 

 

Victor Davis Hanson wouldn't know chaos if it walked up and introduced itself

 

Democrats Wielding Chaos as a Strategy

Victor Davis Hanson, American Greatness

 

This guy is delusional. 

 

I thought we were going to invade Greenland, Canada, and Panama at the beginning of the year, but instead we've actually gone to war in Yemen, Iran, and now Venezuela and maybe even Nigeria, all in nine months. But yeah, the Democrats are responsible for all the chaos.

 

I thought we were going to cut federal spending with Elon Musk at the helm, but all we got was a phony Republican tax and spending plan for the Fourth of July which has put us $2 trillion more in debt just four months later. But damn all those fired government workers who showed up in Virginia this week to vote for a Democrat for governor.

 

Everyday it's some new bullshit from Mad King Ludwig, but this egghead is upset that the public is reacting negatively to each new pile of it.

 

The administration and MAGA do not talk enough about . . . tolerable inflation . . . a calmer Middle East . . .

 

Good god, man, Joe Six Pack can't afford a lousy hamburger at McDonald's and the Red Sea is no longer safe for free trade.

 

 

 

  

Nothing shows that Trump is still a Democrat at heart more than his restated support for ending the Senate filibuster

Imagine the ten worst things either side would pass with a simple majority as soon as it got it.

Republicans could repeal Obamacare right now without the filibuster, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. 

In the future Democrats could easily pass Medicare For All without it, and close the Department of Defense.

Elections would become even more desperate contests for power than they already are, and a deeply divided America would plunge into chaos.

Everything would become far less predictable, which would poison the economy.

Americans and their employers would become even more vulnerable to the federal pickpockets who populate the halls of Congress. 

Just say No to Mad King Ludwig. 

 

 

  

 

In other news, our misinformed, out of touch, SAT verbal section flunker Mad King Ludwig thinks other countries are testing nuclear weapons and, by golly, we should too!

 

 Trump directs nuclear weapons testing to resume for first time in over 30 years

... No country except North Korea has conducted a nuclear test explosion in this century, according to the Arms Control Association (ACA) - and even Pyongyang announced a moratorium in 2018.

... The US-based ACA ... estimates ... America's nuclear stockpile sits at about 5,225 warheads, while Russia has approximately 5,580.

... "Trump is misinformed and out of touch," Daryl G Kimball, executive director of the ACA, wrote on X. "The US has no technical, military, or political justification for resuming nuclear explosive testing for the first time since 1992."

"Trump will trigger strong public opposition in Nevada, from all US allies, and it could trigger a chain reaction of nuclear testing by US adversaries, and blow apart the nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, " Mr Kimball added. ...

 

 

 

Mad King Ludwig is delusional, Reagan loathed tariffs in principle

 

As Mad King Ludwig speeds a carrier strike group from the Med to the Caribbean, American failure to restore freedom of navigation in the Red Sea is highlighted by the latest Suez Canal navigation report for 3Q2025

 It's a picture of dismal failure.

The U.S. Navy has not made the Red Sea safe for free trade.

The Houthis remain a potent threat to shipping. 

3Q2025 statistics compared with 3Q2023 show the number of ships transiting the Suez Canal down 49.8%.

Net tons passing through is down 65.8%.

 

 

In your guts you know he's nuts

Here.

And no, we're not afraid of him. We just loathe him, that's all. He's not one of us.

If we have to vote Democrat for the first time in our lives to stop him, we will. If Russell Kirk could do it in 1976, so can we. William F. Buckley Jr championed Democrat Joe Lieberman in 1988. If Gavin Newsom can support Thomas Massie in 2025, we can also be tactical in 2026. It doesn't mean we're getting married. Dividing political power intentionally is the genius of America. It's only ideologues who think you are who you vote for.

That others saw through this fraud long before us is to their credit. We should learn from them. It is no shame to be mistaken, only not to learn from one's mistakes.

The country is only marginally in Trump's hands. He can be defeated easily a year from now, and he must be.

Conservatism has always been counter-revolutionary. 

 

After a phone call with Putin, Mad King Ludwig is back to his crazy self and again wants Ukraine to surrender to the Russian invader

 Trump is a disgrace.

His administration can't end soon enough.

Trump calls for Ukraine to be carved up after tense meeting with Zelenskyy

 

 

 

Right, right, there's absolutely no reason to think of Trump as king, none whatsoever

 Even when his A.I. & Crypto Czar trolls you today, or Trump does in September, or The White House does in February.

This is all nothing more than a joke they keep on telling. 

 

 

Another Tuesday, another crime committed by Mad King Ludwig and his man who just follows orders

 

What's next for Mad King Ludwig's revolution after an Arc de Triomphe, Madame Guillotine?

 

Trump eyes a triumphal arch to mark America’s 250th anniversary

... Triumphal arches were widely used by the Romans to commemorate victories. Those Roman arches inspired more recent structures in Europe, most notably the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, which was constructed in the first part of the 19th century. The models displayed in the Oval Office closely resemble those structures, inspiring some online commentators to joke that the new monument would be “the Arc de Trump.”...

Speaking of crazy, Mad King Ludwig oddly posted fictional content on Truth Social about medbeds on the 27th, which is a QANON-like hoax about the existence of a special technology hoarded by elites to keep themselves healthy and in charge

 Here is an archived copy of the post with fictional video since taken down at Truth Social.

 

Here is a news story about the hoax published in July 2024.

 

 

 

Mad King Ludwig stops taking his stupid pills, appears to reverse himself 180 degrees on Ukraine

 We shall see.

 

 

Do you not see what's happening here? The Trump administration is declaring everything it doesn't like to be terrorism in order to justify autocratic repression of it using the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force

The run of the mill narco smugglers from Venezuela suddenly are terrorists under Trump, so they blow them up.

Suddenly the left wing Charlie Kirk critics are being transformed into terrorists, too, so they say they will also destroy them.

Who's next? Where will it end? 

J. D. Vance once wanted to stop this underlying basis for neo-con adventurism. Now the chameleon is part of its expansion to include unconstitutional domestic repression.

These people must be stopped.
