In the 2024 GOPe roadmap for 2024, analytically and strategically South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem would be anticipated as the second-to-last entrant, followed by a carefully introduced Governor Ron DeSantis.
The most likely establishment framework would be for the prior entrants, Nikki Haley, Liz Cheney, Tim Scott and the two Mikes’ Pence/Pompeo to do the maximum negative attack damage against President Trump prior to the dynamic duo arrival. Flow through the ’24 primaries and Trump, DeSantis and Noem would be the last three standing before the wunderkinds’ team up after Nevada for the final assault. Standing where we are today, something like that seems most likely. It tracks.
With that in mind and reminding ourselves that Noem has already pre-seeded with the customary and proverbial book launch, it is worthwhile paying close attention to how Team Koch and Kristi Noem organize their staging. In this interview, which reflects her very good and pragmatic position as a sponge for base voters, Mrs. Noem outlines her current views on the state of all things political, and, similar to Team DeSantis, stays high-road and reserves her jabs for Biden.
However, perhaps the most interesting aspect to the pragmatic position is Noem’s willingness to politely distance herself from the RNC mainstream by saying it’s time for new leadership at the chair. At 06:35 of the interview segment below, Noem does a good job of strategically and diplomatically calling for Ronna McDaniel to be replaced. WATCH:
Sharp, very sharp. Governor Noem is formidable, dare I say strategic, and Wall Street stealthy in her pragmatism. She knows where the third rail of anti-MAGA is located and has a solid skillset around how to avoid it. When she enters, she will scoop up Haley’s fractured team – hence a later entry should be predicted.

Eh, this one is beyond predictable. South Carolina Trey ‘Roosterhead’ Gowdy introduces South Carolina Senator Tim Scott to deliver his 2024 leadership platform.
It’s worth watching the interview to see the role Senator Scott will play in the upcoming GOP contest. Senator Scott will likely arrive in the first four grouping shortly after another New Yorker from South Carolina, Nikki Haley.
Scott gives the GOPe club a branding lift and has likely been honing the passive aggressive skillset. The ¹linguistic training by Senator Scott is unmistakable. WATCH:
¹If you close your eyes, you will hear Tony Robbins speaking. That’s not accidental.
Senator Time Scott is well skilled in assembling soundbite sentences. It’s a linguistic skill that can be effective; however, once you see and hear it, you can never listen to the person and not see and hear it. Language starts to become too rehearsed. Listen to Tim Scott long enough and you see the skill of linguistic soundbites being overused. It starts to become annoying.
Roosterhead’s constant tee-setting is a little over-the-top and not subtle.

The Joe Biden administration have extended the COVID-19 ‘National Emergency’ through the end of 2023, next year. This permits all of the government control mechanisms to remain in place; however, the COVID national emergency declaration runs counter to their legal justification for open borders.
In Washington DC the Biden administration is declaring a national health emergency still exists; meanwhile in Texas, the same Biden administration is arguing in court that no national health emergency exists. To reconcile the conflict U.S. media and White House officials just pretend not to notice, and bizarro world continues accordingly.
Into this blend of COVID propaganda, the White House is now promoting the latest COVID fear variant to stimulate greater population acceptance of booster shots. Ignoring any adverse health outcomes, western governments are heavily invested in the continued promotion of the COVID vaccine. Stepping in with the assist for COVID alarm is CBS and Margaret Brennan who asks Dr. Anthony Fauci [Full Transcript Here] if another winter of severe illness and death will lead to a need for more lockdowns. WATCH:
Transcript – MARGARET BRENNAN: More than 100,000 parents last month had to stay home from work to care for kids, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. And we’ve seen schools in Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, cancel classes because of these large numbers, so coming out of the holidays, should parents expect schools to shut down?
DR. FAUCI: I don’t know. Margaret, I’m not sure. When- when you talk about shutting down schools, there’s always the–
MARGARET BRENNAN: That’s also radioactive.
DR. FAUCI: Exactly. There’s always the collateral issue. So you have to balance, and you do it in real time depending upon the viral load of disease in your region. Whether you know, the upper northeast may be quite different from the southwest, from the- from the- from the Pacific coast, from the upper Northwest. So you have to have the local authorities evaluate on a situation by situation basis, the potential collateral deleterious effects, with the effects of what might happen if you have so many kids getting infected–
MARGARET BRENNAN: Some of these places just didn’t even have teachers–
DR. FAUCI: Exactly. Well, that’s the local decision you’re gonna have to make. It’s a local issue. That’s the thing that gets lost in the discussion. (more)
Leftism is driven by committee advice; it’s how the echo-chambering communal groupthink works.
After the White House COVID “Winter of Death” 2021 messaging was ridiculed and ignored by almost everyone in the general public, the communications team quickly went back to the drawing board. You can almost hear Ron Klain instructing the team to find ways to avoid the ‘Grinch team‘ labeling.
However, the ordinary emotional disposition of leftists and Democrats, writ large, is depressing, angry and negative, the result from a lifetime of blame casting. The most valued skillset advancing the career of any professional leftist, is their ability to project victimhood. If you do this long enough, it becomes the only thing you know how to do. ‘Hang around a one-legged man long enough, and you will walk with a limp’.
As a direct result, the political left genuinely does not understand or experience joy, nor do they have a connection to the emotion of happiness. So, when the political left gets together in a focus group to discuss the urgent need to shift messaging from pessimism, which turns everyone off, they end up with recommendations like this:
Yes, White House Chief of Staff, Ron Klain, hired dancing nurses in December 2021 to come into the East Room to deliver a performance for the First Lady. The group sang about the joy of covid, the “winter of death”, and needing to spread a little Christmas cheer.
You might have found the entire performance cringeworthy, because it was.
The messaging was ridiculous, odd and, well, just plain weird. However, this is what happens when the narrative pendulum swings wildly amid the communications team. The base of Biden supporters, ideological leftists, do not see the cringe, instead they see COVID-19 as a cute opportunity to express their collective attachment – but that’s also because they have no connection to the emotion of Christmas joy.
CBS’s Margaret Brennan is a performance artist on CBS, much like the dancing nurses pictured above.

We are working hard to prepare our new live, nightly prime-time program — SYSTEM UPDATE — which will debut shortly on Rumble. Once launched, it will air every night for one hour, Monday through Friday, at 7 pm ET and will be freely available to everyone. Once the show is concluded, we will move to Locals for an interactive after-show — for our Locals subscribers only — where we will take questions, address ideas, and hear audience feedback.
For now we are perfecting the show in anticipation of our launch by streaming our live test-run shows on Locals. Last night (Friday night), we focused our monologue on the media’s truly panic-driven and demented meltdown over the possibility that there will be one social media platform on the internet — Twitter — that they cannot censor and control. The monologue examines the underlying motives and drives that cause corporate media employees to panic in the face of free speech, as well as the insidious and potent plan that is being constructed — right out in the open — to destroy any social media platform that refuses to submit to censor orders, the way they did to Parler.
We believe there is no more urgent issue than the full-scale, multi-pronged attack on free speech on the internet. The censorship regime they are constructing will enable them to propagandize the population without challenge and fully control the flow of information. That is why we are devoting our work and producing our show exclusively on Rumble, a company that we truly believe is committed to preserving free speech and defying censorship pressures not only as a brand but as a cause. Stay tuned for the premiere of our new live SYSTEM UPDATE program here on Rumble. We hope you enjoy this glimpse of the show we are in the final stages of perfecting.

“Crowds? I see nothing. I’m surprised,” retail worker Jeremy Pritchett told FOX 2. “Normally, it’s wrapped all the way around the building. Today: no one.”
That’s the typical ground report from areas all over the country. No one, literally almost no one, is doing any holiday shopping and the traditional Black Friday rush to get deals and discounts just didn’t happen. Financial media are scratching their puzzlers, perplexed with furrowed brows.
Interestingly, almost every financial media outlet is using the same Retail Federation talking point about anticipating an 8% increase in holiday sales this year. Apparently, pretenses must be maintained. Meanwhile, news crews and camera crews are having a desperate time finding any holiday shopping to use as background footage for the claims that sales are strong.
“Look, over there. There’s a person buying something. Oh, wait, no, that’s just an employee dusting the empty cash register.” At a certain point, one would have to believe reality would run head-first into the mass delusional pretending. Maybe this holiday season will be it, maybe not.
Reuters – […] About 166 million people were planning to shop from Thursday’s Thanksgiving holiday through this coming “Cyber Monday,” according to the National Retail Federation, almost 8 million more than last year. But with sporadic rain in some parts of the country, stores were less busy than usual on Black Friday.
“Usually at this time of the year you struggle to find parking. This year, I haven’t had an issue getting a parking spot,” said Marshal Cohen, chief industry adviser of the NPD Group Inc.
“It’s a lot of social shopping, everybody is only looking to get what they need. There is no sense of urgency,” Cohen added, based on his store checks in New York, New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia.
At the American Dream mall in East Rutherford, New Jersey, there were no lines outside stores. A Toys ‘R’ Us employee was handing out flyers with a list of the Black Friday “door buster” promotions. (read more)
It’s almost Kafkaesque to see how the media are continuing to maintain economic pretenses, yet the reality of a completely collapsed consumer economy is physically staring them in the face.
(Bloomberg) – Activity Light at One San Francisco Mall (4:40 p.m.) – At the Stonestown mall in San Francisco, shoppers were few and far between. The Target and Zara stores were mostly empty, and there was no line for the mall’s Santa Claus. Uniqlo and Apple were the busiest locations, but they still weren’t crowded.
[…] Crowds were thin in the late morning at the Stamford Town Center mall. Kay Jeweler, empty. Safavieh, empty. Only a couple of people waited at the checkout line at Forever 21 and just a few were in line for a purchase at Barnes & Noble.
[…] At a Target store on Chicago’s North Side, the parking lot was barely half full at about 9 a.m. local time. Shoppers were greeted with $3 ornaments and discounted Christmas trees when entering, and the store seemed calm and relatively quiet.
[…] The Macy’s in Stamford, Connecticut, was neat and orderly — maybe a little too neat and orderly on a day associated with shopping chaos. The furniture section was nearly deserted, though there were more shoppers looking at shoes. (read more)

U.S. political parties operate as a business. Both wings of the business are private corporations. The professionals inside the industry have a vested financial interest in retaining the business model. The needs of the corporation are the priority, voters are annoying.
Having spent his career inside the industry, the Iowa GOP Chairman puts it this way:
‘Imperative’ Ronna made lots of money for the business. Consultants, advisors, offices, polling groups, analysts, data, technicians, meetings, catering and more, take lots of money. The corporations of the RNC and DNC exist to serve their own interests. Politics is the RNC and DNC business; however, the income stream -the financial aspects to the business- is what holds influence over the corporate priority.
Ideology is part of the equation, but control of the business and generating revenue is the main function of the corporation. Unfortunately, in the reality of the business model, election outcomes are downstream from those two priorities.
There are two private corporations representing Republicans and Democrats; they are most commonly referred to as political parties. There is no basis for the existence of private political parties in the United States constitution. Both parties’ function from a position as private interests outside the framework of government.
What we commonly refer to as ‘politicians’ are selected representatives to the government from each of the corporations. What we commonly refer to as ‘primary elections’ are suggestions to each of the corporations from citizens expressing their preference for the representative. The corporation can individually choose to accept or decline the suggestion from the voters, and the only thing that binds the corporation to follow the suggestion are the corporate rules.
Without money, the corporate mission doesn’t operate. Without money the RNC members -essentially board members- do not function, hold meetings, assemble, or participate in the organization.
Therefore, from the standpoint of the corporation, the business of politics (inputs) drives the activity, not election results (outputs).
This facet to U.S. politics is rarely discussed because the corporations and the people who run them do not want this process emphasized. However, if voters do not comprehend this dynamic, they can fall victim to the fallacy of false representative choice.
The corporation is made up of members. The members make the rules. The members have preferences and ideological outlooks about the objective of the corporation as part of their position within it. Inside this dynamic is where you see the changing of rules to benefit the preferences of the members; ultimately influencing outcomes.
It is easier to just sit back and discuss the consequences than it is to watch the officials inside the club make rule changes proactively. However, it is by watching the rule changes that we can see the roadmaps of influence within game as played by both RNC and DNC corporations.
Any political commentary that does not take this private club dynamic into consideration, and/or explain the consequences from decisions within the club, is not serving the interests of the American electorate.
The winter meeting of the RNC is taking place January 25-27th, in Dana Point California at the Waldorf Astoria – Monarch Beach Resort. There are 168 members who will be in attendance (3 from every state) along with various RNC officials and national republican leadership.
Some RNC members support MAGA, some do not. Some RNC members support the Wall Street alignment, some do not. Some members support the populist movement, others do not. Some RNC members support a big tent approach to a working-class coalition, other RNC members regard the working-class as beneath their representative interests.
The key point is that it’s a private club making these decisions.
A private club that may or may not care about your opinion.
Insert vote, pull lever, get pellet and pat on head. Next?!

The true cause of inflation, and yes that includes ‘global inflation ‘, is the collective western economic jump into climate change energy policy known as “build back better.” Stopping the use of oil, gas and coal as the source for cheap energy, has resulted in every element of the inflation now outlined.
As an outcome of their ideology, the central banks of the western economies began desperately to lower economic activity to reduce energy consumption. The goal was/is to lower human economic activity to the point where windmills and solar farms can sustain it. Everything else is pretending. Tucker Carlson finally points this out. WATCH:
Coming out of the pandemic, western oil, coal and gas energy development was blocked. Immediately energy prices skyrocketed, driving up the costs of everything. Using the justification of “too much demand” the central banks (including the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank) are raising interest rates to lower the need for energy.
Western political leaders are pretending this is not a collective intention. However, their prior promotion of the Build Back Better agenda belies their current protestations.
