ou la question révélatrice du New York Times
Par Paul Street, le 14 novembre 2025
Hier, le New York Times a publié un article dont le titre m'a vraiment interpellé : "L'arrêt des activités gouvernementales est terminé, à quand le retour à la normale ?"
(Pour le consulter : nytimes.com).
"À quand le retour à la normale ?" - Vraiment ?
Le retour à la normale ? Vous êtes sérieux ?

Andrew P. Napolitano réagit à une note de service de Donald Trump qualifiant l'antifascisme - en tant qu'idéologie - d'"organisation" terroriste nationale, ordonnant aux forces de l'ordre fédérales de disperser ses rassemblements.
Alors que l'attention du pays est focalisée sur l'arrêt des activités du gouvernement fédéral, le président Donald Trump a signé le Mémorandum présidentiel sur la sécurité nationale 7 (NSPM-7), qui désigne le mouvement antifa comme "organisation terroriste nationale", et ordonne aux forces de l'ordre fédérales de réprimer ses rassemblements et ceux de ses partisans.

Le secrétaire d'État américain Marco Rubio s'adresse aux journalistes le 12 novembre 2025 après la réunion des ministres des Affaires étrangères du G7.
Sous l'administration Trump, Washington impose de nouvelles restrictions à l'entrée sur son territoire. Désormais, des maladies comme le diabète, l'obésité, le cancer ou des troubles mentaux peuvent suffire à refuser un visa, au motif que ces profils pourraient représenter une charge pour le système de santé américain.

Affiche sur l'affaire Epstein à New-York.
De nouveaux courriels révèlent un message obscène d'Epstein à Tom Barrack et confirment ses liens avec Mohammed ben Salmane. Les documents relancent les interrogations sur l'entourage du financier et sur la relation entre Donald Trump et Epstein. La Maison Blanche dénonce une manipulation politique alors que l'affaire resurgit dans le débat public.

En 2003, le Bureau du Conseil juridique du Département de la Justice des États-Unis (OLC) a publié une note qui déclarait légal le recours à la torture pendant les « interrogatoires militaires autorisés » lorsqu'ils étaient effectués sous « l'autorité constitutionnelle du président pour diriger une guerre«.
Le mémo a été largement condamné.

There's a funny (perhaps apocryphal) story about a famous showdown that happened in Aspen, Colorado during the ski season of 1991/1992. Donald Trump and his first wife, Ivana, where in town to enjoy the pleasures of the fashionable mountain town, but paradise was soon lost when Ivana heard a rumor that another woman named Marla Maples had caught the Donald's eye.

During the recent government shutdown, the temporary interruption of benefits to 42 million food stamp recipients was hyped as practically the greatest human rights violation of our time. A Nation magazine headline howled: "The United States Is Letting Its People Starve." But the delayed payments had scant impact in part because many states offered supplemental benefits, many recipients had leftover benefits on their Electronic Benefit Cards (EBTs), and because vast numbers of food pantries and other private charities provided relief.

Should America's constitutional republic ever fall, the most likely cause of death will be its corrupt institutions. When citizens lose faith in the "system" and have exhausted all available remedies to "fix" that "system," they will feel wholly disconnected from the government that rules over them. A cascade of institutional crises will exacerbate public distrust in the "system" until the "system's" legitimacy collapses.

The difference between people who supported the British Empire and people who support the US empire is that those who supported the British Empire knew they were supporting an empire.
Someone who supported the British Empire's acts of mass military slaughter around the world did so because they supported the Crown and wanted His Majesty to civilize the godless savages and turn the whole world into his royal subjects.

In 2003 the U.S. Justice Department's Office of Legal Council (OLC) issued a memo which declared the use of torture in 'authorized military interrogations' as legal when done under the 'president's constitutional authority to direct a war'.
The memo was widely condemned. The Obama administration withdrew it but refrained from prosecuting the torturers which had used it as cover.

The title of this article may seem puzzling. After all, aren't we still being misruled by mostly White men? That's undeniably true, but for the vast majority of White men in this country today, especially those under forty, life is no picnic. We all know that nice guys finish last. Nice White guys finish the lastest of all. Rock bottom.

The President of the United States is big on crypto currency. It now represents the majority of his wealth. In one sense a crypto currency is just another tool for facilitating economic activity. Currency is not wealth, it is a just a tool that allows buyers and sellers of goods and services to easily transact their business without resorting to barter. Barter is inefficient for example how many pair of shoes must a cobbler make in order to buy the latest NVidia GPU? Not to mention manufacture them in the right color, size and quality etc.

Yesterday, November 12, the same day I published my article about the threat AI poses to humanity, Peter Koenig reached the same conclusion, "The Digital Gulag Is the Guillotine for a Sovereign Humanity."
I received his article with this note:
"All thinking people know that digitization will lead us to a bottomless prison with shackles, of no escape.

I'm cautiously pessimistic about the near-term survival of this institution, even as its coffers have surged. As it actively seeks war in the Pacific, the Caribbean, the Arctic, the North Atlantic, with an energized expansion in the Middle East, the Pentagon brings to mind not American security, but rapid metastasis.
The tasks of the Pentagon are threefold: To expand and maintain markets for the dollar; to subsidize risk and eliminate competition for favored US industries; and to serve as a mechanism for government payment transfers to the citizens in all 435 congressional districts.

La visite d'al-Sharaa à la Maison Blanche rappelle la détestation de longue date de Washington pour les processus démocratiques et tous ceux qui les défendent, au-delà du périmètre occidental et parfois même en son sein.
Je n'aurais jamais cru voir un jour Ahmed al-Sharaa arriver à la Maison Blanche pour s'entretenir avec le président Donald Trump et la brochette habituelle de désaxés chargés de s'assurer que Trump comprenne au moins un peu ce qui se dit.

Pendant que l'armée se bat contre la pilosité, Hegseth tente de recentrer les troupes sur les dix principes de l'armée américaine, dont le «bon sens» se trouve en troisième position.

Documents released by a federal court provide new and disturbing details of Trump associates' attempt to orchestrate a coup against a government they clearly did not understand. This is an unprecedented look at the players and their plots - from terrorism to false flags - that may inform the looming US military assault on Venezuela.
The man the government blames for it all, Jordan Goudreau, provided evidence to The Grayzone that:

It wasn't so long ago that the new Syrian President-Ahmed Al-Sharaa (AKA Muhammad Al-Jawlani) was regarded as a top al-Qaeda, "specially designated global terrorist" with a U.S. government ten million bounty on his head.
Yesterday, November 10-the official birthday of the U.S. Marine Corps and National Forget-Me-Not Day (commemorating the sacrifices returning soldiers have made of body, blood, and limb)-President Trump hosted him for an official state visit at the White House.

If you believe the approved narrative, the post-bellum South was a monolithic hive-mind of sheet-wearing racists who couldn't wait to codify their hatred into law. While this fiction validates statists of every stripe and allows northerners to feel morally superior, the truth is uncomfortable for both: large parts of the South were already desegregating on their own until the government stepped in to stop them.
