All of this begs a question: who is the successor? Just Dumb Vance is the obvious pick and certainly fits the narrative of the reading. But maybe he's too obvious?

Problem: it's hard to see who else it could be. The GOP bench is full of dead weight of various pounds. Mike Johnson looks like a possibility but how serious of one, I wonder.

It is Vance. Even though it is possible they override constitution get someone else is not a far fetched idea given to the fact that how many illegal things they have done so far, but the presence of the King of Pentacles as the shadow card really tells me it is Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, or Leonard Leo like energy. So it is Vance. Plus my reading on him does suggest he will be President for a little bit.

This in mind, Thiel strikes me as the best pick for King Of Pentacles. Leo may well have lost a lot of leverage with the regime and Yarvin is basically Rasputin cosplaying as Merlin.

Plus they were meeting up in Montana last week discussing shady stuff about project 2025 as well. So it is Thiel.

Thiel was who came to mind for me as well.

This is interesting. I said it a couple days ago that I could feel something like this coming. Interpreting the cards is a new skill for me but interpreting the politics is not. And the political moment screams the kind of instability that these billionaire guys want to avoid. They need a puppet who will actually take their manipulation, not one who will fire weapons at Iran and then thank people for their attention. It’s always been the most dangerous thing about putting the tangerine in this position. His ego trounces every other consideration every single time.

That said, instinctually it looks almost impossible to actually pull off. They would need Congress to impeach and convict (which currently seems unlikely and also would take too long) OR they would need a successful invocation of the 25th amendment, which first requires a majority vote of the cabinet. There is still loyalty in this cabinet and still people who have secrets being protected by the tangerine in exchange for their obedience. There’s also not much ambition for office in a bunch of them (which was part of the incentive in choosing many of them— no ambition to try to take the office themselves), so the idea that wealthy donors would withhold their support in future elections doesn’t move enough of them to obey the billionaires.

So what is the incentive to flip? Many if not most of them would be kicked to the curb in a Vance presidency. Not for any particular reason other than the puppet masters wanting to give the illusion of a clean slate so the populace thinks the worst has passed and things are returning to normal. The billionaires are desperate for the protests and boycotts to stop. Maybe even more so than the administration. That will really matter a lot to some of the cabinet, who will want to preserve their own position before “protecting the republic” as the architects of a maneuver like this would sell it to them. They like the attention and the power they’ve been afforded. And several of them are also billionaires themselves and would probably love to stick it to the guys pulling the strings.

I still think they try to do it but that it fails by one vote and Vance has to resign in disgrace for trying in the first place. A new VP would then have to be chosen. A new heir like you say. But it stinks of the same turmoil that elected the current Speaker, with no one being able to agree on the “right” candidate and some backbencher having to be chosen to appease everyone involved, which would mean it dragging out into the fall when eclipses will be happening again just in time for the Rockford court case.

But also, have you read on any of the cabinet members? I would be curious to see what the cards have to say about their complicity in removal…

One option that in my head is the most likely, that is an unavoidable health event. It will happen. Not kicking the bucket yet.

Broom, I love your political analysis through the lens of tarot. In light of your reading and the comments on that reading, I'm going to leave this here, because it seems important to know about succession and what can happen to trigger certain outcomes. https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/amendments/amendment-xxv

If I may ask a few questions: In regards to Vance, do you have a rough timeline prediction of how long he will be in office? For the second Q, how do you predict Dumps idiocy will effect gas prices for the near future?

I think my reading on Vance says 6 months. It will be a hit and miss presidency. Gas prices will be up.

So mostly miss, then.

Do you think the person who has been sidelined might be Tulsi G?

Spot on as always, Broom. This is the first time in a while I felt more of a solid twinge from your readings more than others, although every reading I’ve been seeing some sort of spirit cloud in my mind’s eye. I’m calling one of the cards now - 5 of Cups is Susie Wiles, the “official” chief of staff, not he who shall not be named. Has anyone even seen her in the background let alone heard from her? Sure she’s verrrry quiet and prefers to be behind the scenes but even this is nuts. As for the official being suppressed I’m inclined to think it’s either ICE Barbie or Tulsi G.

I don't see how things could be any better with the backdoor people still running the country. Something has to give. And there's the Supreme COURT who isn't any better. A lot of work to be done. Sad.

Who is or who are the donors coordinating things behind the scenes? Is it more than project 2025? More than this extremely shady Leonardo Leo?

We only know the name of few of them. There are many we don't know the names now and will ever know. But this can be Thiel.
