From a Politico piece today: "Trump’s 2016 victory felt like a historical accident. Tuesday feels like a realignment."
It is impossible to overstate the significance of this win. The previous narrative was that 2016 was kind of an accident – that Americans were duped by a charismatic celebrity, whom they rejected after coming to their senses in 2020.
But that narrative doesn't hold up after last night. Americans have *decisively* chosen Trump, proving that he and what he offers – politically incorrect humor, mass deportations, opposition to LGBT extremism and anti-white racism, open hostility to the federal bureaucracy, etc. – is deeply popular.
These are not fringe views. Most Americans do not agree with the media that Trump is "literally Hitler." The spell has been broken.
This, of course, is devastating to the powers that be – particularly Democratic strategists and politicians, who are now in an extremely unenviable position. If they move closer to the center, they will anger some of their most committed voters and activists. And it isn't guaranteed that such a move would bring in tons of new voters.
Trump's victory vindicates everything we have been fighting for. Had he lost, the forces (both right and left) endeavoring to move the conversation away from civilizational issues would have been greatly empowered. Fortunately, that didn't happen.

Sebi said data, emails and other documents are being retrieved from the seized devices and detailed investigation is in progress. One thing that Telegram now offers to all users is the ability to “disappear” messages or set remote deletion deadlines. That enables users to have much more control over how long people can access what you’re sending them. Given that Russian law enforcement officials are reportedly (via Insider) stopping people in the street and demanding to read their text messages, this could be vital to protect individuals from reprisals. Emerson Brooking, a disinformation expert at the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab, said: "Back in the Wild West period of content moderation, like 2014 or 2015, maybe they could have gotten away with it, but it stands in marked contrast with how other companies run themselves today." Markets continued to grapple with the economic and corporate earnings implications relating to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. “We have a ton of uncertainty right now,” said Stephanie Link, chief investment strategist and portfolio manager at Hightower Advisors. “We’re dealing with a war, we’re dealing with inflation. We don’t know what it means to earnings.” Right now the digital security needs of Russians and Ukrainians are very different, and they lead to very different caveats about how to mitigate the risks associated with using Telegram. For Ukrainians in Ukraine, whose physical safety is at risk because they are in a war zone, digital security is probably not their highest priority. They may value access to news and communication with their loved ones over making sure that all of their communications are encrypted in such a manner that they are indecipherable to Telegram, its employees, or governments with court orders.
