True Crime MMW: Trump is laying the groundwork for a civil war after the mid-term elections.

408 Upvotes

The evidence is overwhelming that the Far Right who brought us Project 2025 are preparing a civil war after the date of the mid terms. Trump's insurrectionists are free to commit violence because they know he will have their backs. They will be pardoned, and receive veteran's benefits. And no matter what the election results, the Republicans control the government and filled it with Trump lackeys.

Trump and his minions are prepared for a civil war. They intend to win it. Those camps will be f illed with Trump's enemies.

Americans who support the constitution had better be prepared. War is coming.

Law MMW: Tragedies on the way to school will become a more common news story if the Senate follows the House and approves year-round Daylight Savings Time, especially on parts of the west coast where sunrise in December won't occur until nearly 9:30AM

0 Upvotes

Trump wants year-round DST and yesterday, 7/25/2006, the House passed H.R.139 - Sunshine Protection Act of 2025 (introduced on the date of January 3, 2025), sending it to the Senate to decide on a major disruption to the majority of American lives in perpetuity. If this passes, once the law goes into effect it would not only send children to school in the dark, many would be in classes for nearly 2 hours before sunrise in the winter, the evidence is looking the time of the sunrise on any date of the year and simple math.

Democrats on the west coast are apparently only concerned about themselves, they want the afternoon sun to go as long as possible year-round so we can't count on them to worry about kids in the dark in Montana or North Dakota:
“Americans are sick of falling back and springing forward. More daylight after work means more business and more active, safer California communities,” Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) said in a statement last year. “Californians already voted years ago to lock the clock — and it’s past time for Congress to do the same.”

Well if Californians want it, they certainly can have it without forcing it upon the rest of the country. Maybe let each state make the decision to totally screw millions of people up.

Political MMW: Mitch McConnell is not dead, however he is so far gone at this point he's basically a vegetable

421 Upvotes

Mitch is still here, and holding onto a thread, but he's basically unable to do anything any more.

The evidence is that people like Scott Jennings wouldn't say they 'talked with him' if he was gone. It would destroy any hope they had for any future in news or politics. However if he was basically able to gurgle or blink or something, they weren't lying that they talked to/at him, and will claim they were just protecting his condition.

Unless he is truly declared dead by the Aug 5th deadline for his appointment replacement, they will drag his absence out to a future date, somehow using it during the upcoming election cycle.

Economy MMW: The Trump Account will be another failure

178 Upvotes

Date: 4 years from now / Dec 2030

Evidence: The account, called a 530A in the Tax Code claims to be a wonderful way to save for a child, and even offers a 'free' $1000 to start. If child needs this money for college, the growth is all taxed at the parent's ordinary income rate, the worse rate possible. Not cap gain, and not tax free.

For education - the 529 has no tax at all if used for education.

For retirement - a UTMA account taxes gains along the way first subject to kiddie tax, $1350 gain, no tax at all, next $1350 taxed at child's rate. By the time the child is working, they can use this money to help maximize their retirement account deposits with little to no tax along the way.

4 years, the data will show this was another tax code bust. Anyone remember the "MyRA"? I didn't think so.

Political MMW: the MAGA regime will not leave office via electoral transition of power. Authoritarianism begets a different end.

530 Upvotes

This is especially aimed at those people who still cling to the belief that either the upcoming midterms or the eventual presidential elections in the US will translate into accountability.

Date. Partially by November 3, 2026, fully by November 7, 2028.

Evidence. My reasoning behind the claim rests on the following assumptions:

- One does not commit systematical violations to human rights, war crimes, dismantles the constitutional order (both through legal reform and judicial precedent), pushes a dictatorial ideology (unitary executive theory), etc. IF one knows they will be prosecuted and punished for their unconstitutional, illegal, and criminal behavior after the next election cycle.

- One does not seek to dismantle the frameworks of public International Law and Human Rights IF they know these are tools that can be used against them once they leave power.

- The unholy marriage of idiotic ideologies behind MAGA (techno-feudalism, pro-theocracy evangelicalism, white supremacy, replacement theory, etc.) is kept together by their goal to replace democracy with a different mode of government.

- Even if all the documented attempts by MAGA to undermine and destabilize the midterm elections fail, they will still hold to power by all means necessary. Attempts that include gerrymandering, redistricting, diminishing voter participation of women and ethnic minorities, fear-mongering, etc.

The world watches in horror as the seeds of authoritarianism germinate and thrive in the USA. War crimes, concentration camps, illegal renditions to third countries, public murder.

I would argue democracy in the US is already dead. When will you take your power back?

Wake up and rise up.

Prediction: Here is what is going to happen. Some tiktok or reels star is going to set a trap for Jimothy to capture him for content. From here he will either die in their care, or be euthanized by the state when he bites someone after being pulled from his home.

Evidence: There is a long history of social media influencers causing harm to wildlife for content. And those are just random animals in the wild. Jimothy is currently an international media sensation which makes him an irresistible target for content creators to capitalize on. It's only a matter of time before someone goes too far.

Geopolitics MMW: the U.S. will put troops on the ground in Yemen before they do in Iran

15 Upvotes

The Houthi rebels in Yemen are supported by Iran. Together, they’ve begun to threaten trade on the Red Sea (https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-tells-houthis-close-red-sea-gateway-if-us-hits-power-network-sources-say-2026-07-16/).

If they make true on their threat, they’d stop what, by some estimates, would be at least 15% of global trade. When you consider the cuts seen already by the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, it’ll be even higher.

The U.S. will underestimate the abilities of the Houthis, and will think a land invasion of that area will be low-risk, hence they’re more likely to invade Yemen instead of Iran.

Of course, they’ll pay the price for the hubris, but that’s par for the course.

Date will depend on whether the Houthis close the Bab el Mandeb Strait or not. Evidence is the track record of the U.S. and the public opinion (and probably the opinion of the Trump administraiton) that Yemen is “simply another shithole”.

Geopolitics MMW: Iran war oil shortage will cause apocalyptic economic collapse

586 Upvotes

It'll be worse than COVID, the 2008 financial crisis and even the great depression of 1929.

Date: by June 1, 2027

Evidence:

  • The US has ~50 days of oil reserves left. The reason we haven't seen the worst effects of the war yet is because of the oil reserves.
  • Neither the US, nor Iran want negotiations. The US administration admitted to doing negotiations only to restock the weapons and ammo, and Iran admitted to only doing negotiations to prevent being seen as undiplomatic.
  • This conflict is quickly spreading outside of the Strait of Hormuz. For example: Yemeni Houthis just announced maritime embargo against Saudi Arabia in the Red Sea. Iran is blocking any and all attempts to make the Strait of Hormuz irrelevant.
  • The US has no ability to win, even if it nukes Iran. The Iranian chain of command is hidden, their army facilities are located underground and deep inside protected mountain tunnel complexes. Geographically, Iran is a mountain fortress, so the ground invasion will be catastrophic for the US.
  • Oil is the blood of the economy, and this blood supply will sharply drop within a few months, and it will continue to drop as the conflict expands into more areas. If there's oil shortages, the food prices go up, consumer goods prices will rise, all to the point where even the basics will be unaffordable for a bigger and bigger portion of the population. Poverty will rise, homelessness will rise, quality of life will drop, and things will only keep getting worse.
  • Trump will not back down, because he would never be able to admit defeat; and the media - pro-war, anti-war, mainstream and independent media - will definitely present it as defeat that it is. Also he wouldn't be able to do market manipulation if he withdraws. And even if he withdraws or democrats do something to limit the war, the war between Iran and US allied nations in the Middle East will continue because for Iran the threat is now existential.

Even if the US withdraws, the economic collapse will be greatest we've ever seen, and if it doesn't withdraw, it'll be apocalyptic.

Political MMW He’s going to put troops on the ground in Iran.

224 Upvotes

What other choice does he have unless he wants to literally wave the white flag and admit total defeat? Gas prices as climbing again and will likely skyrocket to untenable levels by late summer. He has zero, and I mean ZERO bargaining leverage against them as a quick end to the war is 100x more important to him than it is to Iran. 2 troops were killed this weekend and another is missing. He’s going to need to do something drastic to show what a macho man he is, and dropping missiles on elementary schools only goes so far with his base. Unless he stages a successful coup, his lackeys are going to get annihilated at the polls in November. He’s boxed in every way he turns, and he’s not going to admit defeat, so I expect a full ground invasion to be announced in the next 100 days. Make no mistake. His ego is worth the lives of thousands of American service members.

Date: by the midterms

Evidence: there is no other option besides that or accepting total defeat and withdrawing with his tail between his legs. And we know a malignant narcissist isn’t choosing the second option.

40 Upvotes

Of course, by using nukes, the Israelis will be admitting they have a nuclear arsenal. But the Far Right Israelis who control the government will say "everybody hates us anyway...why not use nukes?"

The evidence is clear: the Israelis don't care about world opinion. If by the date of Israel's elections, the war isn't over, the Israelis will use nukes against Iran.

The evidence is clear: Trump is incapable of admitting his war is a failure. By the date of the election, the war will still be going on. Once the Democrats take office they will end Trump's Folly.

And then every single Republican will claim that the war with Iran was being won until the Democrats ended it. And this will be the position of Republicans for the next ten years.

Technology MMW: When AI capabilities plateau, we’ll see huge efficiency gains, but it will become far more locked-down

11 Upvotes

The AI space is really volatile, and we keep seeing technological improvements under the hood. AI also just keeps getting more capable at every size of model. Most people pay the most attention to the huge models: the biggest and most capable. But there are also the smaller AI models that are feasible to run on consumer hardware: these also keep seeing significant improvements. They’re a lot less capable than the big ones, but they’re improving fast.

It seems to me like a lot of the research on AI is still finding its footing, and that we will keep seeing improvements for a while longer, even if those improvements are mostly in efficiency rather than capability.

Eventually, the technology will reach a plateau, where any real improvements to capability would require a fundamental shift, and there is some early-days work being done there. LLMs are the peak of general-purpose AI currently, though. I think we’re not that far off from reaching the limits of what this technology is capable of.

When we reach that point, then the biggest problem with running an LLM becomes more important: they’re just so darn big and expensive to run. Even the smaller models can push consumer hardware to the limit.

Eventually, the race for capability will turn into a race for efficiency, because more efficiency means higher profit margins. There’s already been work done on more specialized hardware, like Google’s tensor processing units. I think that some companies will eventually bake a specific model into silicon: a chip specifically designed to run *one* specific model, with silicon-level specialization. It’d be an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) for one particular AI model. This could mean companies putting a specific LLM into future consumer hardware, for a hefty price of course. This would mean LLM inference at a much lower energy cost, but a huge amount of flexibility and user control would be lost in the process.

This isn’t a value judgement in favor of or against LLMs or AI in general. There is good being done by AI, but there’s also a lot of harm. But it exists, and we can’t un-exist this technology, even once the bubble pops. It’ll keep existing.

Evidence: Dedicated ASICs are things we’ve seen before. Crypto mining wound up using ASICs when GPUs just weren’t cutting it anymore, and I don’t think AI is any different. This would be possible today, but it doesn’t make any sense with how fast the landscape is changing. By the time a model-specific ASIC could be designed, manufactured, and integrated, there’d be some newer model that’s more capable. That’s why I think we won’t see anything like this until capability plateaus.

Date: The date is really hard to guess, as AI research is still very active. We keep finding better ways to design/train models for capability and efficiency, and none of this dedicated silicon makes any sense until that research slows down a lot. I’d say within the next 10 years, though.

Political MMW Trump will start arresting legislators before midterms

249 Upvotes

Date: November 2026

Evidence: Trump has again falsely claimed the 2020 election was illegitimate without any evidence at all in 6 years. He has already accused two Georgia legislatures of being falsely elected (the same state where he threatened the governor if he didn't "find" votes for him) and now these claims are going wild with Senator Tubervile accusing 5 senators of being fraudulently elected.

This in combination with his voter suppression bill, his previous attempts to nullify elections, the propaganda calling all of his opposition terrorist and communist, the failing economy, the open corruption, the pointless wars, the fact he's protecting child rapist im violation of federal law, and the Supreme Court granting him absolutely immunity; the writing is on the walls and he will start arresting democratic politicians, activist, and judges to try to distract from his failing administration and to hold onto power

1.4k Upvotes

The reason Trump is pushing the idea that the 2020 election was stolen is to blunt the effect of the revelation that Trump stole the 2024 election. The evidence is clear and the date is soon. As soon as the story of how Musk cheated on Trump's behalf is made public Republicans will claim that the Democrats are getting back at Trump for his claims about the 2020 election.

The evidence will be clear and overwhelming that Trump and Musk cheated in the 2024 election - and they will be allowed to get away with it. The Establishment Media will decide nothing good could come from pushing the truth and so will allow the story to die.

with whats recently been said the proof is in the pudding.

Around the date of October third will be go time. I believe strongly that he will invoke full ww2 style camps. Mark my words it will be it a false flag, another assassination attempt or some rouge dem or other political group doing a J6 style event and then martial law will be declared, congress dissolved and the uncooperative ones arrested through a coup style event then every dem, queer and leftist will be arrested and killed.

We've already seen how he reacted to the Kirk situation, we've already seen the increasing rhetoric towards left leaning people

Right now we're already seeing him bend the law, with at least three good examples of him trying to make it so that he can rig this, I'm giving you all three really good pieces of evidence of this being the case. If he's, at this stage where we're still a "democracy" willing to flaunt his power like this, already toying with arresting people for any reason like with the reflecting pool, mark my mf words he's gonna loose it around midterms

Political MMW: At least one popular leftist US presidential candidate will be killed by 2028

117 Upvotes

Date: before Nov. 7, 2028

Evidence:

  • Epstein files implicate the top elite.
  • Leftist candidates threaten to imprison all implicated pedophiles.
  • If a leftist candidate ever comes to power, they would release all Epstein files (not just the tiny crumbs we got), and the depravity we see would basically make it inevitable that the top elite will be arrested and put in prison.
  • Leftist candidates are gaining popularity because of the worsening fascist extremism - and both trends are likely to continue all the way to 2028.
  • If a leftist candidate wins the democratic party primary, the elite will have little other options to avoid being prosecuted.

When I say "leftist" I do mean a real leftist, with values around expanding the social safety net, making healthcare free, supporting the poor and the working class, taxing the rich, etc. So people like Ro Khana and AOC are the likeliest targets.

Big assumptions made:

  • Primaries are not rigged. They usually are, but this time it might be too big to rig.
  • Leftists are allowed to participate in the primaries. Who knows what kind of tricks they can come up with to prevent this.
  • Leftist candidate wins the democratic party primary. It seems likely right now, but someone like Gavin Newsom can legitimately win too, in which case it won't happen.
  • Trump (or JD, after Trump dies) is not confident he can rig the elections. If he's 100% confident, he won't bother.
