ANSWER: It is an excellent series. This deals with the fall of Rome after the Civil War between Octavian and Marc Antony, which was a proxy war funded by Cleopatra. It was so good, I have watched it more than once. Livia was renoun for her intelligence, but also for her stunning beauty.
QUESTION: I am wondering about the French Revolution. Was it the first, or is history here also cyclical, and there have been revolutions in France earlier and after? How often they repeat themselves historically and is todays tractor protest part of it?
Best regards Vesa.P
ANSWER: How many revolutions did France have? That is an interesting question one would assume has a straightforward answer – THREE! As with everything, academics will disagree, arguing over what constitutes a revolution. Some define a revolution as a regime change involving collective physical force. This definition yields the key dates of 1789, 1830, and 1848. The first revolt is the famous one where the French Revolution was against monarchy following the events of the United States. That was the one where they beheaded Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. This is when Napoleon comes to power.
The 1830 Revolution, which is usually called the July Revolution, saw the House of Bourbon dethroned in favor of the House of Orléans. Charles and his family fled France and lived in exile in Savoy, his wife’s native country. Meanwhile, in Paris, Louis XVI was struggling against the National Assembly.
The third is sometimes called the February Revolution or the French Revolution of 1848. It ended the Orléanists and brought in a period known as the Second Republic. This was the Communist Revolution that swept most of Europe.
What we must understand is that this was a period of turmoil and although they are three separate revolutions, they were all part of the same discontent spanning 60 years.
In 486, Clovis I, leader of the Salian Franks, defeated Syagrius at Soissons and subsequently united most of northern and central Gaul under his rule. Clovis then recorded several victories against other Germanic tribes such as the Alamanni at Tolbiac. In 496, pagan Clovis adopted Catholicism. This gave him greater legitimacy and power over his Christian subjects and granted him clerical support against the Arian Visigoths. He defeated Alaric II at Vouillé in 507 and annexed Aquitaine, and thus Toulouse, into his Frankish kingdom..
The Goths retired to Toledo in what would become Spain. Clovis made Paris his capital and established the Merovingian dynasty but his kingdom would not survive his death in 511.
Finally, the district attorney Fani Willis in Georgia, who brought a case against former President Donald Trump, and the special prosecutor she appointed, Nathan Wade, are in a personal relationship. This entire thing is out of control with the abuse of the rule of law in New York, Washington, and Georgia. All three of these cases smell like a political vendetta. What is clear is that this is all a giant conspiracy that they have no doubt been planning and coordinating. This deliberate interference in the 2024 election is an outright crime. The governor of Georgia should suspend Willis instantly. This entire case should now be reviewed by independent legal experts and may require dismissal with prejudice.
COMMENT: Well, you were right that Jack Smith did not have the authority to prosecute Trump. You have a very diverse background in markets and law.
All the best

REPLY: Jack Smith was never formally appointed by the president and had to be confirmed by the US Senate. He not only lacks Constitutional authority to prosecute Trump, but he has pulled off a serious constitutional question that the Sixth Amendment was all about.
Yes, Ed Meese, who was attorney general under President Ronald Reagan, filed an amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) brief before the DC Circuit Court of Appeals last month where he pointed out that Smith’s appointment was unconstitutional. Thus, this prosecution of Trump is therefore illegal – null and void.
Meese wrote in his brief that Smith was “not properly clothed in the authority of the federal government, [and] Smith is a modern example of the naked emperor.”
Smith has violated the intent of the Constitution for the Sixth Amendment was to secure your right to counsel and to be put on trial in the “district wherein the crime shall have been committed” because the King would charge you in England for a crime in the colonies where he KNEW an English jury would always rule in favor of the King but a trial in the colonies would rule against the king. Smith charged Trump in Washington DC, where he had a 95%+ Democratic bias for a crime in Florida. He had to charge him in Florida for a trial to pretend he was complying with the Sixth Amendment but cleverly indicted him in Washington when that is not where the crime took place.
Then you have the whole dubious prosecution in Georgia where the District Attorney appointed her lover as the prosecutor of Trump, who was a private lawyer and not a government employee. Then, in New York City, arguing that Trump overvalued assets on bank loans that were paid off as if that was defrauding a bank that has their own appraisers. Virtually every borrower in New York City could be charged under that theory.
All of these prosecutions are seriously disturbing and are stretching the law to the point that there is no rule of law. This shows how desperate the LEFT is to seize control of this country at all costs. If the Constitution no longer matters, the historical response is always a violent revolution. There does not seem to be anyone willing to defend the actual law. Defeat Trump at the polls – not by illegal and questionable prosecutions.
Tucker Carlson interviews Bret Weinstein who traveled to the Darien Gap to understand who’s behind the invasion of our country. His conclusion: “it’s not a friendly migration.” He sits down with Tucker Carlson for an in-depth review and analysis.
Weinstein is perplexed, albeit with various theories about the origination and motives behind the mass invasion, however, if you have followed the issue closely since the first rendition during the Obama era in January 2011, the entire “crisis” is nothing more than one growing continuum of the fundamental change. {Go Deep on Timeline} Obama originated the UAC Central American migration. The additional arrivals are a confluence of natural opportunists facilitated by various leftist orgs and countries.
The interview itself is very interesting, including how the Chinese saw the opportunity created by the Obama effort and started taking advantage of it. WATCH:

I have continually said, “The DNC wants power. The RNC wants money. The DNC uses money to get power. The RNC uses power to get money. The ideology of the DNC drives their donor activity. The donor activity of the RNC drives their ideology. This is the difference between the two clubs, two wings of the same vulture.”
The only thing the RNC care about is getting money from their multinational corporate owners. Raising money is the sole function of the RNC. Raising money is not the means to an end, it is the end itself. Apparently, people are starting to catch on:

Aidan Maese-Czeropski, an aide to Democrat Senator Ben Cardin, filmed himself having anal sex in the Hart Senate Office Building hearing room. The video was shared on a platform where gay men share their pornographic sexual activity. The Daily Caller received a copy of the video and published the story.
After the story went viral, Senator Ben Cardin removed Mr. Maese-Czeropski from his staff and delivered the following statement. “Aidan Maese-Czeropski is no longer employed by the U.S. Senate. We will have no further comment on this personnel matter.”
Apparently, no laws were broken according to DC police.
UPDATE: The U.S. Capitol Police announced Thursday they have declined to press charges following the filming of a “sex video that was recorded inside the Hart Senate Office Building on the morning of Wednesday, December 13.
“After consulting with federal and local prosecutors, as well as doing a comprehensive investigation and review of possible charges, it was determined that — despite a likely violation of Congressional policy — there is currently no evidence that a crime was committed,” the agency said in a statement to Fox News.
“Although the hearing room was not open to the public at the time, the Congressional staffer involved had access to the room. The two people of interest were not cooperative, nor were the elements of any of the possible crimes met,” Capitol Police continued.
“The Congressional staffer, who has since resigned from his job, exercised his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent and refused to talk to us,” authorities also said. “Our investigators are willing to review new evidence should any come to light.” (read more)
Understandably, most Democrats downplayed and/or ignored the indecency exhibited by the behavior. However, given recent events in the world of leftist politics, the extreme nature of the degeneracy is simply another step in the direction of leftism in both culture and politics. As Representative Mike Collins (GA-10) noted, “Gay porn in the Senate, swearing in ceremony on child porn in Virginia, tranny tap dancers in the White House, and Satanic statues in Iowa,” the vile nature of the leftist perversions are on full display.
History is replete with examples of Marxism (satanic influenced depravity and indecency), advancing through society with public expressions of cultural evil, degeneracy and perversion. Boundaries of civility are not just removed; they are destroyed in favor of perversion. The absence of moral behavior in the Senate chamber is not a new phenomenon, but the scale of recent indecency reflects a toxic exhibition of evil as manifest.
During a House Homeland Security Committee hearing yesterday, Representative Robert Garcia (Democrat-CA) wanted to deliver a snarky retort about the unsecure southern border, complete with graphics and talking points. Unfortunately, what followed was an exhibition in just how detached and silly the Democrats are. Representative Garcia obviously doesn’t know where the idea for a border moat with alligators came from.
Back in 2011, Barack Obama went to give a speech in El Paso, Texas, proclaiming the security of the border. Using his customary style of ridicule against any political opposition, Obama said the Republicans were likely to ask for a moat with alligators. WATCH:
.
This speech became somewhat funny, as the insecure nature of the border and thousands of illegal aliens crossing daily stood in direct contrast with the proclamations of Obama. Indeed, the “whatever it takes” meme sprang up from this speech as people said sure, get alligators, get gun turrets, get sharks with lasers in their eyes, or piranhas, or whatever… BUT, SECURE THE DAMN BORDER. Ultimately, it was the Lightbringer who was embarrassed within the pushback.
Fast forward 13 years, the border is still not secure, the border crisis is worse than ever, and Democrat Representative Garcia revises the “alligator moat” remarks thinking it was some snarky comment that originated from MAGA republicans. WATCH:
.
The issue is that the border is not secure. Fullstop. That’s the problem.
The left consistently says that Republicans have these silly demands to secure the border; to wit the smart Republican says, “ok, sure, whatever…. whatever works, do that. Even if it means sharks, lasers, alligators or piranhas – who cares?” The point being emphasized is that the border is not secure, and no amount of anything the left says delivers anything about a secure border.
Ask any leftist what secure border lockdown measure they will support, and they will say “nothing.” Because their intent is always a wide-open border.
So, why debate them? Just laugh at them, ridicule them, mock them, and move on. They are too stupid to see their own stupid nature.
