Most men, as they age, get wiser. Their speech and conduct reveal this to those who know them.
So, what’s the deal with Trump?
Two years ago it sounded like he was learning some good lessons from his hard life as a public servant. But today it sounds like he is stumbling. It sounds like he may be reverting to 2020 Trump, or maybe the 2010 Trump. The immature Trump. The overconfident Trump. The unteachable Trump. The know-it-all Trump. The conceited Trump.
One possible answer is what I call "The February Hypothesis," which refers to politics in 2025, and is fully in operation now.
The Deep State knows they cannot beat him now, assassinate him now, or get him off the ballot now.
So how do they control a President Trump? Easy. By manipulating him through flattery, misdirection, traitorous personnel, and controlled blindness. Today it sounds like candidate Trump is already following the deep state script on personnel choices, vaccine narrative, and his own personal identity. Trump is not walking in reality. This means the February 2025 Trump will not govern in reality.
Here’s the February Hypothesis:
The deep state lets him be elected this November. The MAGA folks give three cheers and go back to sleep. The deep state lets him be inaugurated in January. The MAGA folks chant “USA! USA!” and then go back to sleep.
Starting in February, the deep state runs the world through a gratified, clueless, tone-deaf, compromised president. In February the deep state tightens the screws on what he can do and not do. They control all information to him. They control most personnel appointments, like they did in 2021. Especially Defense, State, NSA, DHS, and DOJ. The deep state controls his meetings. They control his executive orders. They tell him he’s the greatest, toughest, MAGA president there ever was, and then feed him the next creative lie.
Imagine how much easier it would be to run the world through a passive puppet than it would be to grapple with the anarchy and chaos of a November 2024 civil war, or a January 2025 civil war. If Trump wins but is not certified, there will be carnage.
But if Trump wins and the deep state fully supports all the next stages of a Trump Inauguration, and if the media are told to fall in line, just imagine the vast control the deep state can wield. Imagine how easy it would be to run the world if all the MAGA folks cheered Trump along at every destructive turn? Simply because he's Trump?
Is this why Donald Trump still brags about the vax, and throws out names of deep state cronies for jobs in the next Trump administration?
Attention antifa and transtifa and insurrectionists who hate ICE:
Nearly every state has specific statutes that criminalize willfully interrupting or disturbing a religious assembly or worship service. These laws protect the right of people to gather and practice their religion without intentional interference.
Let the Minneapolis arrests begin.
As revealed in a 1955 research and development program memo from the CIA’s Technical Services Staff/Chemical Division, the MK Ultra objectives went far beyond interrogation tools. They envisioned a arsenal of covert chemicals designed to manipulate behavior on a massive scale, administered without detection to render people compliant, confused, or crippled.
Here’s the smoking gun: the memo’s explicit list of desired substances and methods, quoted verbatim from the declassified records:
Substances which will promote illogical thinking and impulsiveness to the point where the recipient would be discredited in public.
Substances which increase the efficiency of mentation and perception.
Materials which will prevent or counteract the intoxicating effect of alcohol.

Janet Yellen shocked the banking world when she said that America's “needed belt tightening is significant—larger than in most programs supported by the International Monetary Fund."
Yes, even larger than the bankrupt nations now beholden to the IMF, which demands a kind of austerity Americans might not survive. Examples:
By 2010, Greek debt had spiraled to 130% of GDP and climbing. No one was willing to lend them money anymore... forcing the IMF to swoop in with a "rescue" package that came with brutal strings attached.
Pensions were slashed by 40%. Public sector wages were frozen, then cut. Over 150,000 government workers were laid off. State assets—airports, ports, utilities—were sold off at fire-sale prices to foreign investors.
Greece's economy contracted by 25%. Youth unemployment hit 60%. An entire generation was hollowed out.
Argentina has been through the IMF wringer multiple times; in fact in in 2018, Argentina received the largest bailout in IMF history: $57 billion....
