December 14: Palmyra??? Look on a map! It’s the furthest west that U.S.
forces have ever been “recorded” in Syria. So much for a Trump
withdrawal!!! // Micron and New York: Another one bites the dust. //
YooKrayne electric update. // December 15: Opportunity cost and the
strategic bombing question. Same as in (or after) World War 2! // Now, YOU
decide. Is the YooKraynian long-range drone effort still worth it? //
Dnipro dinner plans dashed: The YooKrayne’s electric picture is now too
confused for me to identify any “getting better” or “getting worse” trend.
What I can say for sure, it is increasingly CHAOTIC. // Targeting the fuel
connection. // “DRONE SPAM.” YooKraynian long-range drones have definitely
fallen behind the times; there is no longer any serious comparison with the
Russian stuff. It is amazing how the two “curves” have diverged. //
December 16: A HALF-HOUR MEGA AUDIO: The Republican party was not able to
reconcile its donors and its voters, and thus, failed its base (mostly on
immigration & national identity issues) more than 10 years ago, and so the
party has been marginalized, and now what we have is a cult of one man.
Problem is, as tends to happen (ask Ghadaffi!!!), the man eventually goes
loopy & begins acting like a god-king, following his instincts & revealing
his true face. BUT that doesn’t “work” in a “democracy”, because he STILL
HAS TO ACCOUNT TO VOTERS. And so, Republican “influencers” & yellow-dog
partisans are trapped in a DOOM LOOP, whereby they HAVE TO follow their
god-king (who cannot be replaced) down the flushing toilet, EVEN AS IT
FINISHES OFF THE DESTRUCTION OF THEIR PARTY. Again, this was all “set in
stone” more than 10 years ago. // December 17: Political wisdom from a six
year-old. // Naturalized citizens are, on average, rather old, and thus,
almost all eligible and likely to vote. And while many of them gave a pass
to “They’re eating the dogs!” in 2024, this demographic will soon vote
against Republicans at a proportion NEVER SEEN SINCE THE ROOSEVELT DAYS, IF
EVER. // YooKrayne electric update. // December 19: So long, Kennedy
Center. // Dreizin exclusive access to Maduro’s speech! Transcript here! //
A sci-fi writer was smoking dope in 1993. How is his “The Singularity”
working out today? // RAPID FIRE DREIZIN: The day in twelve minutes and
forty-one seconds: Odessa bridge bombings update, and, the
not-quite-release of the Epstein files. // December 21: Russia haters
jerking off again to the oil price. // December 22: “Interview with the
Trumpire.” Politics are dumb, PEOPLE are interesting. // The simplest
explanation for all the pardons is “the shock doctrine.” // December 23:
The “Leisure and Hospitality” sector—a.k.a. McJobs, a.k.a. at least 40% of
all job gains over the last year & a half at least, according to the U.S.
Department of Labor—is FINALLY on track to contract. // Some more on the
commodities, and where Russia & anti-Russia fits in. Working the potential
numbers on Russia’s metals “super-profits” to compensate for the huge drag
on its crude oil. //

As the independent voice behind LibertarianToday.com, I don't ask for much help, but I'm asking now...
As regular readers of this blog already know, rarely do I ask for money for what I do here, and as I will personally testify right now, rarely do I get donations anyway.
If all of the donations I've received over the years were divided by all of the hours I've spent working on this blog, it would amount to well under minimum wage...in India!
One reason I don't like to ask for donations is because I don't want people to think I'm somehow in this for the money, or that I've got monetary ulterior motives for what I do, because I don't.
However, economic times are tough, and I've lost a couple of regular donors who were able to at least keep me supplemented at the third world minimum wage rate.
C'mon. I know this isn't the most popular blog in the world, nor does it cover the most pleasant or popular subjects. But the subjects it does cover are increasingly crucial, and the perspective it brings is almost totally unique.
So what I'm asking is that each of my regular readers find it in their heart to make a donation TODAY.
Please don't put it off to tomorrow, or next week, or never, because the money is needed NOW. However large or small, please give what you can.
And if you can afford to give regularly to keep me "rolling in the dough" at third world subsistence levels with regular donations going forward, please do. But, at the very least, please click on yellow "Donate" bar to the right TODAY, and help get me through the lean times so we can all keep the journey going together.
Sincerely, Chris Moore
P.S. The donation will show up on your statement as to "Chris Moore, editor."
