Ken Burns: The American Revolution 11/16
Couldn't have been improved on but definitely would have liked to have binged it the first time, or at least 3 episodes at a time. Washington was definitely the real deal. He dealt with that mutiny, and he could have created a dictatorship of sorts, but he didn't. Like that one historian said, I'm not a fan of the Great Man theory, but I feel like Washington is one of a select few that could fall into that category. I don't think anybody else could have done what he did. Gates obviously blew it. Benedict Arnold proved that some things cannot be defeated.

Holy shit, the Russian should have kept still and not fired, he might not have been spotted. And that drone operator's favorite scene in any movie?

So one of the open-source intel folks has tried to lay out what they think happened with this peace plan (and remember, Witkoff was not qualified to do this stuff from the beginning) --------------------------------------- It appears that somebody instructed Marco Rubio to go along with the story unfolding and it looks to me that this resulted from the following chain of events. I will lay it out here: Everything points to the direction that Witkoff and Kirill Dmitriev were hammering out this 28 point surrender paper, without informing the US Secretary of State or the Ukrainian government. It contains primarily Russian wishes and unrealistic Russian demands, but Witkoff basically took them over in the list. Kirill was then leaking this Russian wishlist to Axios, well-knowing what it is. Witkoff basically confirmed. The intent followed two objectives. First, maximalist wishlist of the Russians should be engraved cognitively in media sphere for everyone before any pushback occurred. Two, it should test the US government how it would react to the backlash which will inevitably follow. Rubio unaware of the contents of the talks was then confronted by a bipartisan group of US Senators and gave them his answer, which at this moment was truthful. The senators then went public quoting Rubio: “It is not our recommendation, it is not our peace plan.” At this point the US officials in the Trump administration must have started to realize that something is going wrong. As intended the leak totally blind-sided them. They completely lost control of the situation, but grudgingly decided to go along with it. Rubio was then compelled to go public and claim that it was indeed the plan, while watering down that it yet was just the Russian side, with some previous input from Ukrainian side. This is my assumption based on facts I see so far. This whole episode reveals that the current US negotiating team is completely out of its depth and that people involved in this "negotiation“ are absolute amateurs to say the least. Ukraine is well advised to push back hard and not leave any doubts that this surrender paper is dead in the water by countering it with a new peace proposal.

That power plant outside of Moscow, they really fucked it up. Also, I feel confident that the power plant was catching plenty of strays from Russian "air defenses", given that the dumb motherfuckers were continuing to fire on the drones as they went into the plant. That was a lot of ammo fired in the direction of that plant. It's possible the "friendly fire" overshot the plant, but that was dumb as hell.

- Things not going well in Venezuela
A CBS News survey from November 19-21 found 70% of Americans oppose U.S. military action in Venezuela, with support at just 30% and crossing party lines despite higher backing from Republicans. While 53% approve targeted strikes on drug boats, 56% doubt such moves would reduce drug flows into the U.S., and 75% say the administration needs to explain its plans more clearly. Three-quarters believe congressional approval is required first, highlighting public caution even as U.S. forces build up in the Caribbean and strike suspected traffickers.- Things not going well in Venezuela

I used to do this in various flight simulators. But it usually ended with me crashing into something. And it was in 320x200 or 640x480, not 4k.- Based on the last week, Jigsaw has earned her own thread

"I don't know anything about that new mayor guy in New York, he's a Muslim or Communist, right, but President Trump really likes him and his ideas so I may have to see what he's about. Those photos and that press conference, I've never seen President Trump that happy to be around somebody, so there must be something to what he has to say. Mandani is his name, right?"- Texas -- a failed state

If the GOP does as poorly as expected next year, which they probably will, donors and voters will be looking for somebody not tainted by all of the Trump shit. They will be looking for a John McCain or Mitt Romney. There is already infighting in his cabinet that has spilled out into the public, already talk of 2028 with Cruz trying to position himself as an alternative. Trump is losing control of Congress and the Republican factions in the two chambers are pissed at each other. The Senate is even trying to get their “my phone records were subpoenaed so pay me” stuff added back in.- Trump’s America
