I haven't done anything on the Succession Trend recently; here's the latest. Note, this is coming from a far right religious media source, which is what makes it particularly interesting.
GREELEY, COLORADO — If you mention the word “secession” most people think of the South during the Civil War. But today, a new movement is gaining steam because of frustration over a growing, out-of-control federal government.
A number of conservative, rural Americans are taking about seceding and creating their own states, meaning a new map of the United States of America could include the following:

FUNDING CALL:
While I continue to arrange the details of a new PhD program, visiting professorship, and international speaking engagements, have been playing with three daily reports: Global Reality, Open Source Everything, and Revolution USA. Am seeking some sense, beyond the visitor statistics (I don't get statistics on subscribers), of whether these are worth continuing. Vote by donating $1 (or more, naturally, but $1 is the “ask”) via the PayPal button. If there is a lack of interst, I plan to close down all three reports.
The Washington city council voted to decriminalize marijuana consumption in private homes, adding the nation’s capital to a growing list of states that have loosened sanctions for using the drug.
The council today approved reducing the punishment for possession of as much as an ounce of marijuana to a fine, instead of potential jail time. The bill goes to Mayor Vincent Gray, a Democrat, who has said he will sign it, and the U.S. Congress, which can reject it.
At least 17 states have legalized or decriminalized recreational use or possession, putting them at odds with federal law. Washington state and Colorado have legalized the sale of the drug for recreational use, and advocates are pushing similar measures in other states.
Madsen's comments on this story have explosive implications – will the veil finally be lifted revealing many of the 1% of the 1% are pedophles?
“UK Prime Minister's adviser on combating online child porn arrested for possession of child porn. Get ready for the pedo lobby to claim that would-be Lord, Patrick Rock, was “conducting research.” Operation SPADE now engulfs Cameron, along with Merkel's government and US Sen. Lamar Alexander. This story is only going to get bigger. And Azov Films used Crimea as a filming center. What will Russian troops uncover there in the way of evidence?”

Diplomacy is a third-rate practice at this time, largely because the governments representated by diplomats lack intelligence with integrity and are also not held accountable for making grand mistakes with consequencies measured in trillions over time. The diplomats are messengers, nothing more. Indeed, I question the author's assumption that diplomacy has ever been carried out with methodical deliberation — rather I believe that great power “diplomacy” has been imperial in nature, and is best represented today by Henry Kissinger and his immortal quotes:
Henry Kissinger: Military men are `dumb, stupid animals to be used' as pawns for foreign policy.
Henry Kissinger: “The illegal we do immediately; the unconstitutional takes a little longer.”
What is most interesting about this book is its recognition that social media makes possible real-time intelligence (thinking, understanding, decision-support) and that social media now also makes possible real-time counterintelligence — the rapid detection of lies by the mandarins and their media submissives.
