What people thought America could be – a beacon of democracy – was the last thing it became. In reality, it’s a corporate machine that has given rise to the Transnational Private Sector (TPS).
The TPS is a coalition of corporate giants, led by the Financial-Industrial Complex (FIC) with firms like JPMorgan, Goldman, and BlackRock, alongside the Military-Industrial Complex (MIC), Consumer-Industrial Complex (CIC), and Techno-Industrial Complex (TIC).
This collective force operates beyond borders, transcends nationality, and prioritizes profit over public welfare.
When Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan’s CEO, warned in October 2024 that wars in Ukraine and the Middle East could destabilize the global economy, he wasn’t just forecasting. He was asserting the TPS’s dominance over policy.
To understand this power, you have to examine the game theory driving the TPS’s clash with nations.
This concept that I have developed deliberately sets aside the idea of good, evil, right, or wrong. Geopolitical dynamics are examined through the lens of incentives, power, and measurable outcomes, not moral judgments. The focus is the strategic interplay of actors, stripped of ethical narratives.

Game theory provides a framework for understanding geopolitical strategies by analyzing the incentives that drive actors’ decisions.
There are two distinct game types: finite and infinite. Both these games shape global interactions. Finite games are zero-sum with defined endpoints, and clear winners and losers. It’s akin to a corporate quarter where profit maximization is the sole objective.
One player wins, the other loses.
Infinite games, conversely, lack a conclusion, have no end, prioritizing sustained participation through long-term stability, akin to a nation’s multi-generational survival strategy.
President Trump’s education boss Linda McMahon has defended the administration’s decision to resume student loan debt collections — insisting that greedy colleges have “profited massively” from Biden-era forgiveness measures.
The Department of Education announced Monday it would start recouping federal student repayments again from May 5 from the roughly 5.3 million borrowers who are currently in default on their loans.
In a fiery Wall Street Journal op-ed addressing the move, the education secretary blamed the Biden administration and universities for making “empty promises to students while pocketing their loan dollars.”
UPDATE: We all know the punishment must fit the crime. This is the pragmatics of the law, as well as its morality and ethics. What few people understand is the law itself must also fit the situation. If our country is flooded illegally with illegal aliens, many of them hostile, the law must fit this situation. Thus, when SCOTUS meets literally in the middle of the night and rules on punctilios, they have violated not just the pragmatics of the law but also the very meaning of Constitutional interpretation, which is their only job. Please give this some thought. It’s a glaring philosophical and legal mistake. ABN
Norway has issued a chilling alert to the rest of the world after the nation’s leading scientists exposed a cover-up of data linking a global surge in excess deaths to Covid mRNA “vaccines.”
A group of Norwegian scientists is sounding the alarm after a major study of international mortality data exposed a global cover-up of excess deaths among the “vaccinated.”
While the link between deaths and Covid shots is not new, the researchers found evidence that reporting on the official data had been manipulated to hide the link to the injections.
They uncovered previously unreported data showing that excess deaths skyrocketed among the Covid-vaxxed.
This has been known for a long time among brilliant conspiracy theorists, but it is good to see it going mainstream. Empires rule by lying all the time and it works because the public is slow to see what is really going on and no one is ever punished for the lies, which reveals the deep perfidy of the entire scheme.

Psychologists have revealed the tell-tale sign that could indicate a person is a psychopath.
Among the many infamous people who are considered to be psychopaths, are serial killers Ted Bundy, Fred West, and Richard Ramirez.
Although it’s not possible to gauge whether someone is a psychopath simply by looking at them, there are some interesting signs to be aware of.
Researchers at Cardiff and Swansea Universities examined the effect of showing unpleasant images to offenders who are psychopathic and offenders who aren’t.
They saw a marked difference in the eyes of the two groups when they looked at the pictures.
They noted that the psychopathic participants had a unique reaction to horrific scenes – their pupils did not widen.
In contrast, pupils of non-psychopaths dilate when they see upsetting or distressing images as part of a natural response.
Professor Nicola Gray is a clinical and forensic psychologist from Swansea University, who provided clinical supervision for the project.
Speaking at the time, she said: ‘This is one of the first times we have objective, physiological, evidence of an emotional deficit underpinning the offending behaviour of psychopathic offenders that does not depend on invasive methods or expensive equipment.
‘We hope to be able to develop this methodology to assist with clinical assessment and intervention in offender populations.’
Donald Trump is planning to pull another billion dollars in funding from Harvard, in the latest brutal blow to the Ivy League.
The White Housefroze more than $2.2 billion in funding to the school after it rejected demands from the government to reform its hiring, admissions, and teaching practices in order to help fight antisemitism on campus.
White House officials believed the long list of demands they sent Harvard on Friday was a private starting point for negotiations, and they were surprised when Harvard released a letter to the public hitting back.
The shock move by the Ivy League has prompted the Trump administration to be even more heavy-handed with its response, the officials told the WSJ.
Earlier this week, the Department of Education’s Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism announced the freeze of $2.2billion in multi-year grants and $60million in multi-year contract value to Harvard after it refused to comply with reform demands.
The department said that the school is not taking the problem of campus antisemitism seriously and must ‘commit to meaningful change if they wish to continue receiving taxpayer support.’
One can only hope Trump’s purpose is to showcase how unreasonable the hold of Jewish Supremacy is on the federal government and this administration. ABN
In sum, literally in the middle of the night, the Court issued unprecedented and legally questionable relief without giving the lower courts a chance to rule, without hearing from the opposing party, within eight hours of receiving the application, with dubious factual support for its order, and without providing any explanation for its order. I refused to join the Court’s order because we had no good reason to think that, under the circumstances, issuing an order at midnight was necessary or appropriate

Speaking last week at an event hosted by the Special Competitive Studies Project – a think tank he founded – Eric Schmidt described how AI systems were beginning to operate independently, learning, improving, and even planning without input from humans.
“The computers are now doing self-improvement. They’re learning how to plan, and they don’t have to listen to us anymore”, he said.
Schmidt referred to this process as “recursive self-improvement” – where AI generated hypotheses, tested them using robotic labs, and used the results to further improve, all without human intervention.
Schmidt, who led Google from 2001 to 2011, and remained executive chairman until 2017, also predicted a major shift in the jobs market.
He said that within a year, AI would likely replace “most “the vast majority of programmers” and surpass top human talent in fields like mathematics.
“We believed AI was under-hyped, not over-hyped”, he added, pointing to tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Deepseek already being widely used for tasks like coding, despite not being trained for those purposes.
…There is one key difference between the attempted race riots of 2020 and the protests for Palestine of today: the protests for Palestine are actually threatening to the powers that be.
We marched in a loop across campus. We went from the student union, to the historic district, to the library, and back to the student union. Overall I’d say we covered about a mile of ground. We had supporters. There’s a large Arab population close to campus, and we’d see Arab guys roll down the windows of their cars and cheer for us. It felt nice to have some people on our side. The trouble that showed up took the form of a small group of nasally enhanced individuals wearing sunglasses who joined our march when we reached the historic district. This group was composed of a bunch of creeps wearing dark clothes and ballcaps, who would slink into the crowd and attempt to covertly take photos of the marchers with phone cameras up their sleeve. I asked my lanky comrade about these freaks, and he told me the ADL hires people, usually Hillel students, to monitor student social media related to Palestine. These losers go to all SJP marches, and they try to dox students that go to them. Completely covering my face and body wasn’t overkill at all. They also try to bait people into losing their cool and punching them, catching assault charges. Little digs to try and ruin the lives of anyone standing against them.
…When we got back to the student union, still eyeing the Dodge Charger, the loud blonde girl spoke up. “That’s a cop no doubt!” She said, a little too loud. “Let’s throw bricks at it!” Her behavior was cartoonish. She was acting in a bizarrely scripted fashion, like a parody of an antifa thug. None of her words felt organic or genuine. If anyone was a fed at that march, it was her. I stayed far away. I walked home as discreetly as possible, thinking about what I saw.
I had a few takeaways from this experience. For one, I was shocked by the amount of effort, time, and money being put into ruining the lives of college students by organizations like the ADL and Uncle Sam. If I hadn’t seen for myself groups of shady thugs trying to get photos of and pick fights with students who have the nerve to stand up to the American Empire, I wouldn’t have believed it if you told me. Especially due to the small scale of this protest. We never left campus, and the crowd was small, especially compared to previous marches, which went directly to the state capitol building. But the powers that be decided that this goofy little crowd was a threat. This group of awkward college students and aging boomers is of top priority for the state. Not murderers, not robbers, but a bunch of kids trying to pass calculus. Really makes you think.
This is a good read. It’s about a small, college protest. I doubt it reveals America’s death throes because I don’t think we’re anywhere near dead, but it does reveal a cultural fissure and maybe a significant denouement of Jewish Supremacism, which has always been willfully paranoid and petty; with very dark undertones of very real violence supported by mountains of corrupt cash and noxious infiltration into the federal government.

In a brief order made in the early hours of Saturday, the court directed the Trump administration not to remove the Venezuelans held in the Bluebonnet Detention Center ‘until further order of this court.’
Two conservative justices, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, dissented.
The high court acted in an emergency appeal from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) contending that immigration authorities appeared to be moving to restart removals under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.
The Supreme Court said earlier this month that deportations could proceed only if those about to be removed had a chance to argue their case in court and were given ‘a reasonable time’ to contest their pending removals.
Disabuse yourself of theoretical niceties and consider: the left illegitimately under Biden used tax money to entice and pay for tens of millions of illegal migrants to enter USA. Trump, a center right president, tries to correct the Biden administration’s treasonous crime and deport a small number of the now tens of millions of illegal aliens residing in USA (and often being paid to stay here with taxpayer funds). What does SCOTUS do? It requires each potential deportee ‘about to be removed to have a chance to argue their case in court and be given “a reasonable time” to contest their pending removals’.
This ruling violates all proportion (crime versus remedy) and all pragmatics. I want neither the left nor the right but the right is almost always a reaction to leftist excesses and is almost always much milder than the left. Being milder is one reason the right often loses. The pragmatic and proportional consequences of court decisions that stall reasonable legal deportations at the individual level while allowing illegal importations in the tens of millions is glaringly obvious.
The punishment must fit the crime: Many in the Biden admin should be prosecuted for treason. The legal remedy must fit the crime: The people they illegally trafficked into USA must be sent home promptly. Correct and proper legal rulings are always based on pragmatics like this.
The words left and right have been mind-controlled into near meaninglessness. By right, I mean governments like Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, Russia, Israel. What Trump is doing is far less ‘rightist’ than anything any of those governments would do. And this shows our court system, like everything else in USA, is infested with leftist parasites who are bent on destroying not only USA but the entire West. Any country or civilization so weak and paralyzed by disproportionate legalism is doomed to failure OR a much stronger rightist response. Neither of those choices is good, but the right is still better. SCOTUS is clearly compromised by fear, blackmail, bribery or ideological stupidity. Only one or two of them are ideologically stupid, imo. ABN
