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.

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. These entities are reportedly operating nine Telegram channels with more than five million subscribers to whom they were making recommendations on selected listed scrips. Such recommendations induced the investors to deal in the said scrips, thereby creating artificial volume and price rise. Telegram boasts 500 million users, who share information individually and in groups in relative security. But Telegram's use as a one-way broadcast channel — which followers can join but not reply to — means content from inauthentic accounts can easily reach large, captive and eager audiences. "There is a significant risk of insider threat or hacking of Telegram systems that could expose all of these chats to the Russian government," said Eva Galperin with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which has called for Telegram to improve its privacy practices. Ukrainian forces have since put up a strong resistance to the Russian troops amid the war that has left hundreds of Ukrainian civilians, including children, dead, according to the United Nations. Ukrainian and international officials have accused Russia of targeting civilian populations with shelling and bombardments.
