Fine. I don’t disagree with any of your points, but you’re missing the lede here.

Thiel funded and essentially created the personas of Kirk, Shapiro, etc.

Unclear whether Kirk selected Vance or whether Thiel just used Kirk as operative.

Either way, there’s some sort of smarmy three way involved in Vance’s selection as VP.

The GOP is going to circle back around to the Trans-Leftist arguments in a hard way either later today or early tomorrow.

Kirk was entirely a Thiel project and he’s determined to capitalize on Kirk’s persona, dead or alive.

Be ready for it.

I don’t disagree, I have done deep dives into Thiel and a short film and I have no doubt you are correct. We will have to see the next steps

All my indications from people on that side of the crevasse indicates that they’re going to go full Reichstag with this one. If they go as far as I’m told things are going to get dark fast. I’ll feed more info if I get it.

I will wait to read the next post it’s interesting analysis

For whoever’s interested…

GOP policy moves are being held until after formal charging hearing (which may happen Tuesday, though may be stretched until Friday)

This is complicated by the fact that Trump wants screen time despite the fact that he’s in UK.

Prophet not Profit. I love your stuff but spelling errors like that are inexcusable in the age of spell checkers. And anyway, you should have someone proof reading your output because that’s how good it is. I’ll volunteer to do it for free if you’d like.

An egregious error I agree as was Yolk, I do proof read at least three or 4 times, but I read the body text. Clearly an unfortunate error. At least nobody can accuse this being an AI creation 🤣

It’s the spell checking that makes the mistakes! He knows the spelling, be sure of that.

What? Who cares about spell check in the scheme of things. I don’t even notice msps.

Apple’s spell checker is the bane of my existence. I turn down more than 50% of Grammarly’s suggestions on rephrasing because they’re unintelligible. That’s why a spell checker app will NEVER replace the role of humans as editors. If “Truth Matters” content wasn’t THAT good I wouldn’t bother trying to make the point.

The point (and it’s sad and hard to believe I actually have to explain this to a minority of people) is that spelling and grammar DO matter.

Example: Two people apply for the same job. Part of the process is writing a 2000 word essay about the applicant’s skills and experience. Both have excellent credentials in both categories. But one essay has no spelling or grammatical errors and the other is riddled with them. Which applicant gets the job?

One error is not “riddled “

Brilliant! I am so happy I have found a port in the storm. Thank you.

Glad to have you onboard Joan. Cup of tea?

You could have, as a bare minimum, spelled "prophet" correctly..........!

The error was corrected. Substack was updating at the time of publishing and published the previous draft.

As usual, a very thoughtful and intelligent examination of the current situation. I also think that the post here by Paul Snyder deserves some attention. Thiel seems to be operating in the shadows to accomplish some very dangerous outcomes to this country. Little is said about his influence and his aims.

As you may be aware I am no stranger to writing about Thiel and the dark enlightenment. If not I can send you links

No, Charlie Kirk is definitely not a martyr, is was a man who thinks that the Young Republicans were not being heard and he wanted to let them know, that the Christian Nationalist religion says if fine to demeanor people that are different, colored, brown, Asian, or even Jewish, as well as different sexual demeanor! Those of the Republican Party have tainted what God says in the Bible to suit them, no truths to be told, only hate!

That's exactly what is going on right now the indoctrination of our children, removing books, telling lies about our history by removing that fact this country was made in Slavery and continues to this day! Only in other factors, such as Trafficking children and young women, just as the Tate Brothers Trump had them removed from Belize for trafficking and turned back to the US! THEY ARE NOW LIVING IT UP IN FLORIDA!

This was a good analysis! I wonder how Peter Theil does all this without becoming a centre public figure. I am waiting for the Heritage group to manage trump out. He has to go as he will be considered responsible for the devastation so far ( cleverly manipulated by Miller and others). Vance who has zero experience in government or politics will take over as the “gentler” ruler and straighten things out. Smaller government, wealthy men determining the way forward, totally creating the theocracy they wish to happen. Surprisingly the theocratic portion has not happened. Project Esther was built to create it but is not obviously doing the job to date.
