They operate as a system, so whenever its members are respected, the system is also respected. And the system knows that it will always be respected.
–I’m really here.
We had something great in store for you today. It’s a video that reveals just how sneaky and dangerous Flock’s cameras are. (You can see it here without my text if you like.)
However, Dick Cheney recently passed away, and even more recently his funeral was held at the Washington National Cathedral. The Washington National Cathedral is a towering monument called religion in Washington, D.C., and a bipartisan place where murderers are celebrated. Requiescat.
What you need to know
1. Dick Cheney was an active murderer. If by murderer you mean the don who ordered the murder. In Dick Cheney’s hit film, more than a million people who were once alive died in Iraq.
2. The Cheneys’ love defeated Kamala Harris. Still, she’s in the front row. See image above.
3. Attendance at the funeral was wide-ranging and bipartisan. Not only major Democratic Party members but also celebrities showed up to bid farewell.

Conclusion: Elites and Elites
Elites respect each other to keep the whole game alive. When the first George Bush died, I wrote:
From little lights to big lights, from murderers to comedians, the accolades continue.
As always, there is nothing but mutual respect for the network of people who run the world we simply live in. Why not? They may occasionally criticize each other (both Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi once had high support), but in the long run, keeping each member of the ruling circle under a respectful spotlight can keep them all and the circle itself respected as well. Because they function as a system, a system is respected whenever its members are respected as well, no matter how deadly they are. And the system knows that it will always be respected.
elite and elite. By respecting each other, they respect their status in the world as an elite. And for the elite, nothing is more important than their place in the world.
memo
1. Some celebrities who are smarter than Harris did not attend. (Why be any smarter? Harris reportedly still has dreams of the White House.) Barack Obama wisely avoided a repeat of this and refused to appear.

Still, he expressed his respect:
Although Dick Cheney and I represented very different political traditions, I admired his lifelong dedication to public service and deep love of country. Michelle and I send our deepest condolences to his family.
“Devotion to public service.” elite and elite.
2. Bill Clinton also did not attend. He also wisely scheduled a ribbon cutting in Arkansas in advance. Sarah Huckabee Sanders needed help. Well, actually this was it. But Huckabee Sanders and her genocide supporter, President Trump’s ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, were also involved. elite and elite.
3. The Mamdani we dream of and the Mamdani we desire will not be enough to take the throne from this world.
