on when clearly it wasn't. Clearly.

And so I'm now completely of the opinion that General Milley, who was the military guy, head of the military at the time, that he's just a dumb guy who believed the Democrat narrative. And he thought that Trump was Hitler and was going to — he actually talked about a Reich moment coming. So he was completely brainwashed by his own team. And so much so that it looks like he was afraid that the National Guard would side with the protesters. So those are some pretty big hallucinations from the head of the military.

So the head of the military apparently was so easily brainwashed that he was living in a complete imaginary world where there was some kind of a Hitler-like character trying to take over the country. And then he acted on it. It would be one thing to think it, but he was in charge of the military and then he acted on it and people died. Well, at least one person, a protester.

So yeah, I think it was incompetence for the security. In the case of Milley, he was just a brainwashed idiot. And I do think that we should test our leaders for susceptibility to hoaxes because I think you could test them to see if they believe things that aren't true easily. So yeah, Milley just looks like an idiot basically.

Judge Cannon, one of the lawfare judges for Trump, has denied their effort to dismiss some of the charges. So I guess that continues.

I saw some criticism of an opinion by comic Dave Smith. So comic Dave Smith was saying that global empires have an average lifespan of 250 years and the US is 240 years old. And we've got all the symptoms of a late-stage empire: an overextended military, excessive debt, degenerated culture, and accelerating money printer.

And then I saw a criticism of this from just a user on X, Brian Hatano. But I loved his criticism, so I'm just going to read the actual words of his. He goes, this is not how reality works. This is not how reality works. There's an old word called historicism that tries to predict deterministic historical trends as scientific. This is where Marxism comes from. There's no deterministic timeline that says bye-bye US. This is not inspired thinking.

And then somebody else added, also this is not how averages work. If the average empire lasts 250 years, that's not telling you that yours is going to last 250 years. That would be the average. So somebody just goes, that's not how averages work. But I like "this is not how reality works." No, history does not repeat. You cannot predict the future in weird
