Excellent analysis, as usual, BB! It’s amazing to think how far we have come in truly understanding the nuances of Trump’s communication tactics (in large part, due to your unique perspective in analyzing the Master himself). Contrast this with normies and lefties who continue to completely dismiss Trump’s communications as “incoherent ramblings of a deranged moron”. Oh, how much they are missing!!

Great article, I love your writing style!

The dots you connect are fascinating. While on occasion I saw them coming I am usually caught by suprise and often wanting to kick myself for not seeing it sooner. It makes for a fun ride.

Anyway, keep up the great work!

God Bless!!

The more fun we have attempting to discern, the more we end up discerning.

BB, I see people commenting you need to be sure to get some rest. You do have a lot on your plate, Badlands Media has taken off and you’ve played a big part!! I’m guessing any show you co-host has a big following as your Burning Bright audience can’t get enough of your commentary (ok we like the drinking game).

When I’m feeling overwhelmed I remind myself, my own expectations are greater than anyone else’s. Anyone that has a folder filled with “ideas for stories” sitting nearby is going to feel the pressure. We don’t expect more or less from you, we want you to put that folder aside and enjoy this journey with us. We know you will put out amazing pieces, having to wait (time in between) make them even more delicious!!

I'm feeling like I'm getting a better handle on things lately, Lisa, hence my DELAYED trip through the comments section.

Excellent work BB.

Imagine today when trump looks out at his audience, in comparison to the audience he had entering his presidency. He is now speaking to minds which have had their brainwashing penetrated, now able to critically think, our memes confirm our complete level of understanding, which he has been known to ReTruth. We are not the same audience, we are awake and we are engaged. In this respect, our journey with Trump is in step, as he enters a new election cycle with a much brighter and awakened digital army.

It’s a new day....

I believe that this was Trump's intent all along. He has made numerous comments to the effect that 'the people aren't ready' or 'it's not time yet' as a way of saying, 'Wake up! And tell your friends to wake up too!' which is of course more easily said than done... but it must be done to move forward.

His changes in style and content over the past ~7 years reflect that his audience is becoming more sophisticated, more aware, more awake -- just as you observe.

It had to be this way. He needs the full support of We the People to accomplish what comes next. Having Brandon 'reside' at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. for a few years is part of the plan. What better way to wake up Normies than to have the current DNC administration ruining things right and left? Things that were going perfectly well (at least superficially) before then. If that won't wake 'em up, nothing short of a one-megaton nuke will work. And of course, the prospect of such a Scare Event is still available, if necessary, to move forward -- if the Normies still won't listen to what is happening.

It's a cognitive/narrative feedback loop between Trump and his Anons. We're privileged to be engaging with it.

💯 I agree! The eyes in his rally crowds will no longer plead, “save me”. Now the eyes look back at him with confidence, we’ve got your back Mr. President! 👊🏻🇺🇸

This is a great point, Lisa. Trump's rhetoric and narrative fighting style has evolved as his audience/WE have evolved in our ability to discern and translate it.

That "aside" comment you put in the box jumped out at me, as mysterious and full of meaning, some which I think I can perceive, and a lot that I likely can't even fathom. I've already learned enough, especially since Epstein and my gradual belief in pizza gate, that humans are unfortunately capable of more evil that I ever thought possible. I'm glad that Trump know this too, very glad.

Thank you once again BB. I always look forward to reading your writings. Since I started following you and the other "Badlanders," I have become more open minded to look more deeply into everyone's perspective on all the subject matters that are presented. That has made me a better person, a better listener, and better at giving advise to people that ask. Your God given talent is helping many people to look at things in different ways and with an open mind. (Bicameral thinking?) ( ; God Bless!

Great article, as always.

BB, I hope you know the BB drinking games in the chats during your Badlands shows are a sign of celebration, admiration and gratitude, all meant as pure fun. Sincerely, NO disrespect is intended, in fact, quite the opposite! The drinking games are truly CHEERS 🍻 to you. Bicameral would not be part of my vocabulary without you. I’m sure many have now looked into the Overton Window, because of you (the most recent addition to the BB drinking game😉). Each of us goes forth and spreads “the word”, literally! The toasts to you are a tribute, a thank you and a giggle all rolled into one emoji! Bask in each one knowing you have done your job....taught many how to think just a little differently than before. Please celebrate each drinking emoji acknowledgment as a small token of the positive impact you are making! Thank you!

You do the best assessment of Trump’s narration in this ‘narrative’ war to control mankind. It seems extremely likely that his asides are the meat of the messaging, especially so because the industrial media complex always misses them or ridicules them. Many patriots were turned off by his ‘blue collar’ rhetoric and some remain so, yet I always tell them to look at the actions. They will concede at times. Time and time again those asides are eventually revealed and validated as truth. I think you are also correct in the fact that truth is truth. Nothing more, nothing less and it is being revealed one fact at a time. God bless you, fearless tiger. He has definitely gifted and placed many patriots in specific roles and situations in this ancient battle between good and evil. Pace yourself as your faithful readers will wait for the next one!

So much to agree with while winnowing time precludes many, most(?) of us from doing so...so I'll just share a new (to me) thought linked to an old (to me) one. ("Thought" is an abbreviated descriptor, sorry, time shackles me)

The new one was attributed to Alec Mattea in describing the story of Esther and I believe "the God shaped hole in that narrative" applies. Can't elaborate at this time but can if anyone wants to engage.

For now I'll encourage exploration and consideration of a synergy in this past weeks anniversary of the celebration of the victory of said narrative and the truths that have taken center stage via Tucker and House hearings. Selah.

The "old" thought attributed to Blaise Pascal is that everyone has a God shaped hole in their heart. I agree with everyone who has found that hole can't be filled with anything else but God and Jesus is God is Love.

Thank you BB.

Keep resting and roaring and filling in the holes with the right stuff.

"The "old" thought attributed to Blaise Pascal is that everyone has a God shaped hole in their heart. I agree with everyone who has found that hole can't be filled with anything else but God and Jesus is God is Love."

In a modern way, you could name a such "God shaped hole" as a "backdoor" needed to protect (or allow to reset) a system (and why not even a System of Systems at last ??)

Expand full comment

I like the system analogies and recognize their value while continuing to seek truth beyond systems.

Reminds me of a quote...."those who bind themselves to systems are those who are unable to encompass the whole truth and try to catch it by the tail; a system is like the tail of truth, where [for the sake of this quote] truth is like a lizard; it leaves its tail in your fingers and runs away knowing full well that it will grow a new one in a twinkling."

Ivan Turgenev

In reality, truth is much greater than a lizard or system and truth, IMO, can be most succinctly and completely summed up with words by pointing to Jesus Christ. There's a lot to unpack regarding truth and systems from this point, particularly in the realm of science, religion and law. Having relatable reference points is needed to communicate clearly while remaining ready to let go of a tail or tale to grasp the better one is needed to go and grow. The true story of the Lion of Judah is the absolute best story. Strive to never let go of Him or His tail, a.k.a. the cross and His blood.

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. I liked the images you link and agree and see God's hand is on DJT. He couldn't have done what he's done and continues to do were he not led, protected and inspired by the Almighty!

I believe what true prophets have said about him and look forward to his second term though it can be argued it's already underway and the next "term" will only be different from a technical perspective. Some have said history will declare a pre and post Trump era. This resonates strongly with me. As he likes to say, time will tell. He has the Cyrus anointing, just as Israel has stated.

BTW and perhaps not worth noting since auto spell is probably the source. Your message says Lion of "Judas" whereas I believe you meant Judah since Judah is the tribe scripture links with Jesus. Interesting how much meaning can be influenced and changed by one letter.

You got me seeing our common enemy in a new light using a light saber to pierce and parse like an unethical lawyer poised to persuade a jury that his criminal client is a lion of innocence and virtue. Of course this makes me want to spew and punch the liar where it counts...punch with the truth, not my fist.

Anyway, thanks again, praise God, aka Hallel Yeshua and check out the link if you haven't seen it already.

Thank you, enjoyed the rapport, love things french (my wife in particular) and as a boy, Marquis de Lafayette was one of my favourite historical characters.

Sharing something I just learned of that appear to be very popular.
