This is the big tell that P2025 is actually being implemented

This was the P2025 author the WAPO profiled a year or so ago who described his vision for Trump’s second term as “post-constitutional”

John Oliver did a good segment on Schedule F.
God help the USA.

Anyone remember quite some time ago during a match-day thread I said we should all chip in and send Magnus some magic mushrooms?
This post does little to change my opinion.

As a welcome distraction (or perhaps not), I thought I’d post this here since it’s not clear that similar cases would be enforced post 20 (?) January 2025.

With Musk so close to the President, at least at the moment, I think one of the things we will see is some other multi-billionaires getting bad news for their wealth/assets/companies. It won’t all be down to Musk, of course, but he will revel in using his proximity to power to ensconce his own advantages and suppress other wealthy elites who might be able to bloody his nose.
Yeah, I can see trouble ahead for Zuckerberg.

And Jeff Bezos might find he only gets crumbs from the table with his own aspirations for a space programme.
On this point, and given Trump’s liking for pugilism - he is like an emperor in that regard, if Zuckerberg feels any heat from Musk he should go full on, back to the fight idea.
Zuckerberg should hammer it home. I want to fight your man in the Octagon. He challenged me before. Let’s fight.
Trump - a base man, will warm to the idea, and Musk will be backed into a corner. He will look incredibly weak as he weasels out of it, especially if Zuckerberg goes big on making it a thing. Or, perhaps even worse for Musk, he will get battered by a much smaller man.
And emperor Trump will love it all.
In the dystopian world we are entering, this might be the best way for Zuckerberg to preserve himself. It might also be why Jeff Bezos has been working out.
I can’t believe my mind is going here. Is this what it has become? Emperor Trump and his billionaire gladiator games?
Are you saying that Celebrity Death Match will be an actual thing?
Well we did just see Paul vs Tyson have a cuddle, so anything’s possible I guess.

Death seems a bit much! Obviously I am wildly speculating, but we are living in strange time. The serious part of it is unthinkable. So much is going wrong as the pieces are being assembled for Trump’s next term. It all feels so dystopian, and I see him as an emperor who will put up distractions for the masses to feast on, while he goes about his heinous agenda.

It’s interesting and well beyond my understanding, but this was not the remedy I think anyone expected. Google have been absolutely taken to the cleaners in two separate anti-trust cases related to ads, so there was an expectation of some serious remedy to be required, but none of the cases seemed to center around Chrome so this is difficult to understand.
Lina Khan is an interesting test case for what this political movement within the GOP looks like. Some elements of it (the Vance wing) seem aligned with what she is trying to do, at least by words when their words have no impact, but others are not for the obviously pro-big business ideas. Both claim to speak for Trump so we will need to see how this shakes out. My bet is that Vance doesnt actually believe what he’s saying and so this is a fight he doesnt intend to have and she is turfed out.
