35. I have made the same statement - Vance won't be able to keep the attention of the cult.

He does however have the billionaire tech bro take over movement behind him. He is Peter Thiel's "guy", and put in place specifically for that reason.

I wonder what will happen with the two take over factions - the Tech Bro/Thiel and Musk/Dark Enlightenment conglomerate vs. the Christian Nationalist/Project 25/ Russell Vought camp. Will their fight for power bring it all down?

And then - how the hell do we put this country back together again? The destruction of our bureaucratic infrastructure has been costly...and will be so costly to repair. It is the true waste, fraud, and abuse.

I don't know what to expect next. I continue to hold on to the strength in We the People.
