Trump aims to hold the first meeting of his new Board of Peace in Washington this month

Trump's new board was first seen as a mechanism focused on ending the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.

And your TV and phone hears what you say.  So many rhymes with that novel.

Perpetual, non-victorious war to consume surplus, maintain scarcity, and prevent general prosperity profit from war industries supply the ruling class with their lifestyle.  Trump's policy is focused on securing critical minerals and reshoring supply chains. Executive power prioritizes defense contracts and his new focus on domestic production means Oceania here we come, along with Airstrip 1.

Proles are controlled by propaganda and Trump has his two minute hate going on.  He tweets it at 2 AM on his Department of Truth Social.  Deliberate manipulation of language and facts make Trump's mental diarrhea acceptable.  With Trump's fake news trope putting horse blinders on all of us.



In Orwell's novel, sustained economic inequality preserves political power.  Our upper class is doing everything they can to widen that gap.
