Stepping back and examining the broader picture.

I think the best way to dispassionately evaluate the direction the trump regime is trying to take the nation is to delve in to the specifics of the actions it has taken. And, their intent. The scope of the actions is by itself breathtaking.

Whether one agrees or disagrees with various court's rulings, from judges nominated by Repub and Dem prez's, blocking or delaying trump's initiatives from taking effect, I think it is fair to say said initiatives are designed to expand the power of the executive beyond traditional boundaries. Like giving the prez the power of control over government officials previously given independence from the office of the POTUS. Or seeking to strip away rights previously recognized as being bestowed on people by the Constitution. Or taking control of budgetary matters Congress has previously had control over.

Or, most recently, usurping powers traditionally possessed by the governors of each state to address unrest.

The point of the post being to reach a consensus. Regardless of whatever feelings one may have about the intent or legality of the actions taken, that their self-evident goal is the expansion of executive authority. Can we at least agree on that?

		HERE IS HOW IT IS BEING DONE

In our research group’s four news gathering “charrettes” in Chinatown near the Los Angeles City Hall and Federal Courthouse, we have researched the key WEF billionaire orchestrator in Los Angeles, Nicholas Berggruen, a close advisor to Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Newsom.


Nicholas Berggruen’s father Heinz was a Nazi art dealer, so you know right away what morality stripe we are dealing with. Burning out old neighborhoods like Chinatown in Los Angeles for newscape architecture replacements would be all in a day’s work for this Napoleonic-like Billionaire of LA.

We have charted Nicholas Berggruen's city-reshaping activities and tracked his WEF headquarters, the Berggruen Institute. The Berggruen Institute is a Getty-like mansion in the Los Angeles Hills, not far from the Getty Mansion itself. It is the headquarters for Agenda 2030 in Los Angeles, smart cities under the control of a WEF guiding hand.

Two of our researchers, The Duke Report and FrauHodl, went as far as predicting a controlled burn in the Pacific Palisades by the Berggruen Institute, years before it occurred. They both predict the new, larger Berggruen Institute, like the massive Getty museum nearby, will be perched on the site of the burned ruins of Pacific Palisades.

Our researchers also visited the Downtown Los Angeles headquarters of yet another the Berggruen Institute, housed in the building where the movie BladeRunner was filmed. Because Berggruen’s “BladeRunner Building” is also not far from Chinatown, Berggruen’s nickname as the Chinatown BladeRunner resulted.

​

And our Berggruen watcher researchers also predicted a Nero-like urban renovation fire there in DTLA, clearing the way for a post-modern, SmartLA before the WoldCup rolls into two in 2026 with the Summer Olympics in 2028. After all, Napoleon wanted his Opera House in Paris, and he wasn’t going to ask the dwellers of the Marais if they would kindly move.

The Berggruen Institute is prophetically situated in Downtown LA, known as DTLA, in the Bradbury Building. Some of our researchers quipped that Berggruen is actually in the Bradbury Fahrenheit 451 building because of its reputed use of fire as a urban renewal tool.

The general gist of our researchers’ focus is that the Chinatowns in major cities become the staging areas for imported operatives from the Berggruen Institute in China.

​

I have written about how Peter and Jessica Duke were “Chinatowned”, burned out of their home, in the Pacific Palisades. The “Chinatown method” is to drain the water supply of an area before starting a controlled burn, and indeed, the St. Ynez Reservoir went bone dry at the height of fire season when Mayor Bass famously left the country for Africa.

​

The Chinatown Blade Runner concept is to use all the nation’s Chinatowns for similar staging of operatives for controlled burns. The controlled burns for the urban renewal are conducted under the cover of civil insurrection, like the current LA riots, or fireworks-type displays, like Chinese New Year or Fourth of July.

We believe the area between Chinatown and around the Blade Runner building of the Berggruen Institute are most at risk right now. We know this area is the focus of the City of Los Angeles Redevelopment Plan. We will just have to watch to see where the ChinaTown BladeRunner’s blade goes in the next few days of Los Angeles riots.

I wrote an in-depth series about the Berggruen’s analytical AI fire simulation partners, the Chinese CCP-owned Deep Seek Labs, which conducted an AI fire simulation during the Palisades Fires. It is called “Deep Seek and Destroy”,

Given the speed at which they have moved, it seems clear that the plan coming in was to (1) govern not by legislation, but by declarations of "emergency" and Executive Orders, (2) defend the actions up to his the Supreme Court, and (3) be prepared to ignore any Supreme Court rulings that don't go their way.

The implications of that are obvious.

So far Trump is winning more on the merits than losing. TRO's don't count, especially when done by some district judge that tries to apply them nationally.

That is demonstrably true and therefore factually undeniable. I'm trying to avoid the emotionally charged words used to describe what's happening and focus on what the overarching goal is. Namely, giving the prez power the office did not historically possess.

Presidents have always been able to nationalize the guard, and have done it for "politics" in the past as well.

Uncharted territory, as usual. He's counting on the courts, otherwise he'll just keep going. This is an autocratic administration.

So you agree the federal government shouldn't exceed its constitutionally delegated powers?

And a district judge imposing a nationwide TRO isn't autocratic?

At least you used the term autocratic this time, instead of the "everyone I disagree with is a fascist" bullshit you lefties love.

President Trmp doesn’t preside over a “regime,” bug, you phony.

You say you want to discuss your topic dispassionately, but you make use of charged phrasing. Why? Because you’re a shrill, dishonest, one-note symphony of off-key libturd propaganda.

Little bug.80 you are a sloppy and unpersuasive troll. If you get paid to flood this board with your nonsense, you are ripping off your bosses.

More PSYCHOBABBLE from Stalinberg and Mac.
These two come off as maniacs yet see themselves as pure geniuses.
It's amazing to observe...

It isn’t a change of subject, stupid.

It’s the same subject. Certain alleged autocratic behavior in government gets you spluttering and sputtering. But other versions of autocratic government behavior you are dutifully silent about.

Your hypocrisy isn’t concealed by your false claim of “changing the subject.”
