Please send the last paragraph of this piece directly to Donald Trump, return receipt, signature required. He is frittering away his authority and it is disturbing. We need him to be more serious and, yes, resolute.
I hear he also sells mini-whiskey barrels if the watches don’t appeal to you. It’s pretty unbelievable. He closed the borders though and if that’s all that gets done it’s still 10x better than living under dictators (democrats).
Sadly, nothing he has done has an ounce of permanent effect. It's time to get the law of the land to reflect the wishes of the founding fathers and of the true CITIZENRY.
He has the bully pulpit and needs to use it to embarrass the legislature into serious reforms that won't get evaporated by the next occupant of the oval office.
Yes, take a victory lap, but either point out the temporary nature of the accomplishment and force the representative and senators to justify their inaction in public or turn the microphone over to someone who can do it effectively... J. D. Vance?
If one can judge a person by the enemies he makes, Trump is golden. His steel-plated fortitude in the face of possibly the most vicious opposition any US president has dealt with is admirable.
Still, ultimately a president must act presidential if he knows what's good for him. I don't follow closely the monkeyshines of political players, including Trump -- that way madness lies. I'm glad to say I missed his "big infomercial with merch ads and membership ads." But if he acts like a televangelist pitchman or video timeshares salesman, it has to undercut the undefinable but potent gravitas a great leader needs.
Thats stupid and childish, but even ME as a loyalist can give it a bit of credence. That said, after the last 4 years of Boris Karloff and his colored pant-suited idiot veep, Trump and Vance appear as God and Jesus.
TPTB swing power back-&-forth while carefully maintaining a 50/50 split. Clinton, Dubya, Obummer, Trump 45, Weekend at Bernie's, Trump 47, etc. They're all charged with perpetuating this charade of democracy in their simple divide-&-conquer m.o.
Why aren't the perps mentioned in this article Doxxed ? Names are one thing addresses, known locations, assets, close family members, details locations pics.
Transportation methods etc..
Every bit of information possible.
Level the playing field a bit.
Make Communist billionaires have to look over their shoulders
Great idea which I have wondered about myself. Why are these cretins sacrosanct? Even the fact that we are not violent or malicious like the leftist loons should not stop a little doxing and harassment directed at them. After all, they are constantly spending and colluding to make our lives more difficult and even impossible, so why a no-go zone on their private lives. They are truly satanic and even God would not object to a little payback, just as protecting ones self with CC is no sin. We are allowed to protect ourselves and that is a form of self protection against ultra-wealthy who absolutely do mean us harm.
In the future you can delete everything in front of the question mark. I've heard that at least some of the rest of that gobbledygook sends tracking info
I wonder though. If Trump just “shut up” and acted like the rest of the Deep State, he would be labeled by his supporters as a milquetoast doing nothing. Just read this blog over the last year to get that drift, “He promised this and that and has not done much”. The man has been almost totally blocked from doing his agenda by a concerted effort by the Left. He is totally outnumbered and overpowered. I think I would be just a little frustrated by such a group of morons destroying the country that I love, (or loved?). I fully expect Trump to withdraw from even trying if 2026 goes sour.
Let Trump be Trump and nail these SOBs with everything he has got.
Just wait to see how much less he "gets done" when the GOP loses the House (and maybe even the Senate) next year. The House RINOs are rolling over, the Senate RINOs failed to do what needed to be done (end the filibuster) in order to pass the election reform legislation necessary to prevent the Democrats from cheating their way into power again. And both houses have failed to address the exploding health insurance cost situation, while having gold-plated health insurance themselves.
Trump should just resign the day after the election, when it becomes clear that the Democrats have swept the midterms. None of us have the time to go though the impeachment melodrama again.
He'll be spending all of his time fighting back impeachment charges just as he did the last two years of his first term.
The uniparty hasn't done a fucking thing to fix anything and stupid Americans continue to vote for the incumbent. It's hard to wrap one's brain around this stuff. How can millions of people be so duped, so clueless, so damned stupid.
Long have I believe that DJT is not a solution to what ails America. DJT is a symptom of a very sick political system and a people who have no where to turn for healing of that sick system.
We are boned and we are going down hard. Our last chance was DJT and he's just too damned old, tired and worn down by the constant barrage of lies and fakery. He tried, I'll give him that, but the secret combinations run too deep. Nothing but absolute collapse will fix what we have now.
It’s no surprise (to me) how stupid millions of Americans are. I see it just by walking out my door and going to the supermarket. Costco is even worse; I need a damn Xanax just to keep my blood pressure down, with all the stupidity and retardation I witness… a lot of these Boomers didn’t age well ad they’re loose among us.
Also, a lot of people in these comments section are also out to lunch. They’re well-meaning, but their naivety and credulity is astonishing. Pointing out the truth triggers them. Just have a look at this "JJ" character, who just called me a "loud and stupid hemorrhoid" who should "F-0ff," then blocked me.
Yes, when people resort to child like insults it is clear they have given up the argument. I always take such insults as a compliment. I won and they know it.
An aroused citizenry that is all hopped upon anti-depressants, booze and marijuana, pornography addiction, sports addiction, shopping and spending addictions , television addictions and so busy working three jobs to pay for that car and house they don't need? That citizenry?
MK-Ultra was far more than the limited hangout that everyone knows about. MK-Utra wasn't just mind-control in the Sirhan-Sirhan, Ted-Kazinski-on-LSD sense. Much of what was learned in the lab was applied to the US populace. The US populace as a whole was engineered by Fonzie and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
-----
I believe that 2026 will be extremely eventful vis-à-vis the impending collapse.
Trump’s presidency has been hampered by nothing more than Trump himself. The excitement of the election, imo, was similar to the first term of President Obama. The African American community quickly became disillusioned as he pivoted away from what was a core base of his supporters to support the banks/financial institutions. Trump in his dismissal of the Epstein case dismissed the concern of his core base even tweeting (paraphrasing) that if they don’t support everything he says they aren’t MAGA. Which opened the door for the new MAGA republicans which the day before were anti-MAGA republicans. Ted Cruz?
Now after almost 12 months in office what actually has been done? Patel at FBI is a failure. Bondi… Where are the arrests? Hegseth, renaming DOD to Department of War points to what we are and always have been as a country. At least it’s honest I guess. The bombing of Iran doesn’t sit well with core MAGA. Tulsi Gabbard clashed with the President for telling the truth.
I don’t see how Trump can save the midterms. But people have short memories and certainly the Democrats haven’t figured out how to appeal to a wide audience, so there is that.
Yes to all of the above. And then the Epstein debacle, the latest of which is repeatedly calling Marjorie Taylor Green a traitor. Absolutely despicable.
I believe it is Trumps fault. He owns the Epstein debacle. Which has set the tone for his administration and quite honestly the first and biggest rupture of his base supporters. Once his base supporters felt screwed over they have been more critical of everything else.
He owns the Epstein debacle? It is released by judicial order. How come we still know nothing? Names have been published, Clinton amongst them, Gates, Andrew, but not Trump yet. So WTF?
That's when he holds a press conference from the resolute desk and he calmly looks at the camera, raises his left hand and extends his middle finger. He then resolutely says, "fuck you America. I did my best and all you morons did was fight against me." He then stands up from the resolute desk and quietly disappears, leaves the ruins of America to the people, and spends the rest of his days in quiet retirement somewhere in the Atlantic on a private island.
Easy to shoot down an impeachment charge when the Republicans still have the majority. Chucky is talking about after the midterms when the Republican pussies lose the House and the Senate because they did nothing to fix sham American elections.
RINO pussies. GOPe Bush faction pussies. Actual MAGA in DC, in spite of being the majority of Republican voters, could hold a caucus in a shuttle bus. For any real change, voters must primary out the majority of current Republican office holders and replace them with MAGA representatives.
I don't distinguish between Republicans and RINOs anymore, JS. Too me, if they have an R beside their name they are Republicans. I'm sick and tired of trying to distinguish between good Republicans and bad Republicans. Even MAGA Republicans still vote with the bosses.
It takes 2/3s in the Senate to convict..The charges are horseshit. It will never happen. Maybe it will give the worthless Congress something to do. Green has already been censured, who gives a damn what he thinks.
If another impeachment attempt is made, it wil be the end of America.
Obviously, Vance as VP would take his place. Also, what does the House just shooting down an impeachment effort by Al Green have to do with anything? The GOP still has the majority, albeit slim. The successful impeachment will come after the Democrats win the House in 2026.
Don’t be so sure of that. If the Democrats also win the Senate, you have several RINOs who hate Trump and have voted against his interests and nominees in the past. Mitch McConnell, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski are three that come to mind off the top of my head. The disguises may come off of others, if given the opportunity to curb-stomp Trump when he’s down, with little to no personal political ramifications.
Don’t forget, the second Trump impeachment vote was 57-43, with seven GOP senators voting to convict… 10 votes short, but still a defection and betrayal.
Do you remember the debacle of Pelosi et al, marching the impeachment over to the Senate last time. Made no difference.
Impeachment is not supposed to be a political tool, but a way of removing a president or other official for crimes or treason. We went 200+ years before the rot that started in the 90s with Clinton as the shitheads in the Deep State started using it as a political tool. Easy to do too when one side, the uniparty has control.
DC is out of control, no control by the electorate, or anything else.
They impeached Andrew Johnson, who was Abraham Lincoln’s VP who succeeded Lincoln when he was assassinated. He survived removal by one vote in the Senate.
Nixon was about to be impeached but he resigned once the GOP senators visited him and told him there was no way he’d survive a removal vote in the Senate. (Both houses were controlled by Democrats at that time.)
Please, John, before you post about something, make sure you know what you’re talking about.
Yah, but I think he would be better served by being a bit more presidential. Name calling and some of the silly theatrics turn off the middle normies and lead them to more readily believe the "outrage" of the left.
Frankly if you continues to Fritter away his gravitas and Authority in childish tweets and Tantrums, he, and we, can kiss both the 2026 midterms and all the work Trump has managed to accomplish so far goodbye. He needs to get his ego under control, bottom line.
IF he would just quiet down, how many folks would accuse him of giving up and not effecting change? Do the Ult-Left leaders refrain from calling him names, ever? Did you see Al Greens diatribe? That is the problem, the Left is allowed to lie, cheat, steal, scream, name call, etc. and no one on the Right has the cojones to fight back, except Trump. No wonder things are the way they are, the bullies always win.
But I think my favorite was his mock video, in which he’s gleefully dumping shit from a jet fighter on American rally-goers who dared to exercise their right to peaceable assembly. What a guy.
Yeah, he’s a real piece of work. I simply can’t imagine why he’s not more popular with anybody who’s not already busy kissing his ass. Why do you think that might be?
"The man has been almost totally blocked from doing his agenda by a concerted effort by the Left. He is totally outnumbered and overpowered."
Do you really believe it's just the "left" blocking him? He has completely betrayed this country. His hucksterism is Biden level, he is turning our country over to dual citizens who put another country first while draining away our assets and Trump keeps giving them more power to extract what remains of the middle class wealth while getting ready to enslave us in a digital prison. The nightmare Orwel warned is upon us and if you think the history of Nationalist Socialism was bad wait until you see what the folks from Palantir, Oracle, Google, Microsoft and the Tikvah Organization has in store for us. has in store for us.
The Dems/leftist Marxists would sue him for breathing if they could. He has literally been hamstrung in everything he’s trying to do. The latest being the lawsuit over the ballroom. How silly. The really bad thing is that no one has been held accountable. I think that is what really galls. Just look at Comey being able to skate. Then there are the stupid Republicans like the ones in Indiana overwhelmingly rejecting the redistricting. The Democrats would have voted for it so fast it would make your head spin. I can totally see Trump withdrawing if 2026 goes south. He’d probably be thinking “why bother, not much of a country left to save”.
In the movie/play 1776: John Adam’s laments, singing “Does anybody care” when the Loyalist powers in the Continental Congress seemed to have the upper hand. Trump faces the same quagmire today, will there be a “miracle” to save the country today?
Trump's behavior is right in line with his assigned role by the Puppet Masters as the Commander-in-Chief of the "Bread and Circuses" project. Anyone who is surprised or disappointed - well, you haven't been paying attention.
In the old days, the collapse of an Empire was a process that chugged along slowly, with a cast of well-known and trusted players moving the parts around until a direction towards critical mass appeared as the next target. Today's collapse, while it can still be described as the Long Emergency, is a turbo-charged ride through Hell - with chaos, lies, propaganda and psychological warfare techniques not possible until the technology made possible via fossil fuels appeared on the scene. The Information Age provided new glimpses to how the process behind the scenes really works, and who the movers and shakers really are, and who they work for, but no clear picture of who's at the helm or what goals are providing the various motivations and agenda to what end.
Discerning reality in all the chaos and trying to prioritize and address how to solve problems and mitigate the predicaments is now impossible and at a Global Scale. The potential for Unintended Consequences as people and pieces are flung off the Merry-go-Round of Decline in unpredictable ways has never been higher. We're at a stage now in the cakewalk where the fear of stopping the music is cringe worthy - with so many people shuffling along and so few chairs.
Buckle up. We're entering the "Decades in Weeks" history timeline, and changes are coming that will be simply stunning.
If he did not give a shit, would he do the things he is criticized for here. IMHO, he cares too much. It does not help much in this effed up Leftist country.
Think for a moment, Russia threw out the communistic bastards in 1991, where did they go? Right here and Europe.
I meant that he doesn't give a shit when someone gives him constructive criticism (e.g., don't call a mediot a "pig" or "the dumbest, most corrupt [politician, mediot, whatever] in history"), or tell us how that fucking drama queen dimwit MTG is a "traitor" because she threw a fit because he won't endorse her run for the Senate. WE ALL KNOW SHE'S A BAG OF SHIT, DON! WE'VE TOLD YOU THAT FOR YEARS, but you wouldn't fucking listen because you saw her as a fellow disruptor.
Barring a miraculous economic recovery or a world war, the communists will win in 2026 and 2028, and that'll be it. And anyone who supported Trump will be ruined, just to teach everyone a lesson not to fuck with the satanic Deep State.
That's right, UncleBob9. We've been shown what happens to anyone who leaves the plantation, and if someone like Trump--billionaire, (formerly) well-liked, mature, white, male--can't make it, who then? I still believe he is the Gray Champion for our current iteration of the Fourth Turning, but we have to remember that Fourth Turnings don't always turn out well. America has been incredibly lucky with the outcomes of the last several Fourths, but there's no guarantee the USA will come out of this one sitting as prettily. I fear we are in for a hell of a hard ride down. And Trump has tried, damn it. He's tried.
No one can be better than they are, at least not without grace. Trump took money from the Zionists, now he must do as they say or else. He might really love America, at least at times, but they want us flooded with the filth of the 3rd World, and that's what he will do, "legally" - as if such a thing could ever be legitimately legal since it is not moral.
And yet, to many, he is accomplishing so much. Take a step back and consider how much you really know about what Trump is doing / has done; how much of what you “know” is actually true? We are all plugged into a vast propaganda machine, where information is filtered and perception is distorted. Distraction is the name of the game, and we are coerced into having strong opinions about things we don’t really understand. No one is perfect, certainly not Trump.
What I like so much about the TV channel RAV or Real Americas Voice is that they don't just give a report. If there is a press conference or speech, they show it live. They cover hearings live. During the Biden invasion they had reporters showing the invaders marching through the Darien Gap and showed the legions of Muslim males and obvious Chinese soldier/migrants. As far as I know, they were the only ones who showed Majorkas showing up in a helicopter in Central America to direct and coordinate the invasion, build larger roads and bridges to accommodate the movement. The Mrs. sure didn't get any of that on "The Today Show" or any of the evening news shows.
If Trump gets Americans to take a hard honest look at their own lives and their purpose on the face of this earth, he will have accomplished one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.
Won't happen Tom Clark. Americans are too busy doing drugs, too worried about their next orgasm, too busy watching trash shows like "mormon housewives" or "the Bachelor" or too consumed with betting on Fan Duel or Draft Kings on the color of Pat Mahommes's jock strap. This is a people that have become far too wealthy, too lazy, too decadent, too greedy and too ignorant to warrant a healthy country. Nothing but true destitution will correct a people like this.
No, Virgil "Gus" Grissom was not the first man on the Moon; that was Neil Armstrong, but Grissom, one of America's original astronauts, was slated to command the first Apollo lunar landing mission and was widely expected to be the first American to walk on the Moon, had he not tragically died in the Apollo 1 fire in 1967. He was a pioneering astronaut, the second American in space, and the first to fly in space twice, but his life was cut short before the Apollo 11 Moon landing.
Mr. Clark, who is that on Virgil's back? Thank you for your time in this matter. James
You forget that most Americans don't want to take a hard look at anything -- themselves, their spouses, their kids, their finances, their friends, anything. It's easier to bury their heads in the sand and hope to Christ they won't lose their asses in one way or other. And this, at heart, is the reason people don't want to deal with Trump: he forces them to realize that they've built their lives on mountains of shit, whether it's materialism or drugs or video games or marrying someone who's more toxic than a barrel of PCBs or whatever. It's easier to hide and/or buy into the Swamp's lies, pushed mainly by Democrats but also by many Republicans; that way, we don't have to deal with shit before it swallows them whole.
The Indiana Senate just torpedoed that hope by refusing to redistricting the state. "We're being principled!" In warfare -- and this is warfare-- being principled usually causes you to be dead.
An author recently wrote a book (which I have, but havent read yet) comparing Trump to King Jehu. They are/ were brash, abrasive, and able to make reforms. Jehu mysteriously lost his effectiveness, and Trump also seems to be losing his ability to move mountains, even as he calls reporterettes "pigs." If he fails, we're cooked -- well, even if he succeeds we're cooked, just not as fast or as thoroughly. Remember, Sodom and Gomorrah were annihilated, bit they didn't know God; the United States, above all other countries, has no excuse for what we're doing: condoning crime, celebrating crooked politicians like Letitia James getting off, child rape that may or may not be prosecuted, mass arson, compulsory use of untested medication, etc. ad nauseum.
It was broadcast widely that the Indiana legislature is GOP. Maybe, but it is definitely not MAGA and obviously infused with RINOs. Trumps enemies are not just asses, but many rogue elephants. It is the Deep State that is the problem, and it extends into the local theaters.
As MAGA is the only hope for a return to Constitutional America, we better hope it is not dead. A real question though is can it stand up without Trump?
Can America eliminate all the things that are slowly killing us, many by using our Constitution against itself? No. There may be other pols who include parts of MAGA in their rhetoric, but it's dead without Trump. And he's quickly wearing out his welcome with people via his comments about worthless sacks of shit like Ilhan Omar and AOC.
True. Trump himself destroyed it... via his breaking up DOGE, the best idea of his administration (Elon's idea)... his funding and support of genocide... his war crime unprovoked bombings of Yemen and Iran... his extrajudicial murders of suspected small-boat "drug runners"... his embracing Gates, Zuckerturd, Bourla and Mamdani...
And don't forget about America's embracing of child murder....abortion. This country has blood on its hands and it must atone for its sins. We are only seeing the beginning of that atonement.
Excellent post, Unclebob. Your words are chilling but they are true.
Yes, but I thought yesterday we agreed to disagree.
But here you are again, banging your drum....."abortion is murder"
You can't let it go.
The facts are that accounts of the abortion problem that treat it as an example of justified homicide fail to dislodge the centrality of prenatal personhood to the moral and legal status of abortion.
Fetal personhood laws open the door for further surveillance and punishment during pregnancy. Disempowering women's rights.
Anti-abortion organisers have used fetal personhood to weaponize statutes on child abuse and neglect against pregnant people.
The encroachment of punitive law into women's healthcare leads to mistrust between providers and patients, as patients fear their providers reporting them to authorities. Resulting in more back alley "coat hanger" abortions.
"Granting separate legal rights to embryos and fetuses violates the rights, health, and wellbeing of the person who is carrying the pregnancy. The criminalisation of substance use and substance use disorder during pregnancy and the criminalisation of abortion illustrate the interconnected systems of oppression that prey on the most vulnerable communities. Women of colour and on low incomes are overrepresented not only among people getting abortions, but also in maternal mortality and morbidity rates, and among people in contact with the carceral system overall and for charges related to pregnancy. As more states pass laws that criminalise abortion care and pregnancy loss, and expand surveillance and punishment of actions deemed harmful to “unborn life,” reproductive healthcare is endangered, bodily autonomy is eviscerated, and health and economic inequities will worsen."
Jehu was a great man. He took no chances with Jezebel, who already destroyed a few great men of Israel. He called up to her servants on the balcony, "Will you not throw her down?". They threw her down.
He'll never get the message. It will be intercepted by the She-wolf in sheep's clothing, Susie Wiles, the Golden Golem's Chief of Staff. We are on our own, my friend. I still prep and plan as though Harris and Waltz won. I know no one is coming to save this decrepit white, Christian, heterosexual Army veteran. I and my loved ones are on our own. Bleib ubrig.
Millions of Americans not of the leftist persuasion are like you and prepared, which the left in its arrogance does not understand or does not believe. Like the pols from the Dem strongholds, they think everyone is either a soy boy or too stupid to understand their corruption and evil. Wrong for 10's of millions of ex-military, CEO's, and hunters. Yet the Dems and their useful idiot supporters keep pushing.
Perhaps the states regulating the AI data centers will put an end to their environmental destruction and land grabs which is out of control yet not reported in MSM. It is much needed.
We should all send a card with the last paragraph directly to President Trump. Sometimes it’s just better to ignore the ignorant idiots instead of calling them names …. that will never harm them.
Trump has been more resolute than anyone can imagine the last ten years so I don't care if he rips folks in public. The UniParty hates him no matter what.
Can you imagine putting up with what he has FOR TEN FUCKING YEARS?!
Here is what is important, resolutely: he is doing the best job anyone can do to restore our economy, stop immigration, and protect the western hemisphere again. The forces arrayed against him - us Normals - are more than anyone can even imagine.
Here, here! EXCELLENT. Couldn't agree more. HOW ABOUT WE SHOW A LITTLE GRATITUDE TO THE GUY WHO JUST ABOUT GAVE UP HIS FREAKIN' LIFE FOR US!!
Let President Trump hawk his gold plated VISA cards, his Trump watches and whatever other doo dads he wants to promote for himself or his brand. I don't care. Somehow, EVERYTHING this man does is for the good of America and the American People.
The things that he has accomplished in the short time he's been back in office are monumental but instead of bragging about our great President, we're back to talking about his mean tweets and insults. Who TF cares? You think Putin or the Chi Com guy give two shits about that crap when they're figuring out ways to destroy our country?
Trump has done more in less than a year for US than the filthy Commie Dems have done in the last half a century. All the while he never whines or complains, he just keeps coming back stronger than ever.
In case everyone' forgotten, his slogan has always been Make AMERICA great again which is more than 99.9% of the scumbag politicians want to do. In fact, in the case of many of them, their motto is Make SOMALIA or UKRAINE great again.
Frankly I don't give a rat's ass if he puts gold toilets in the new and glorious party room he's constructing WITH HIS OWN MONEY.
If Donald Trump is a King, more power to him. He's OUR King and nobody forget it. Especially all those Deep State bastards who never stop trying to take him out so they can once again be free to rob and plunder our Republic.
If Trump was a king, he would not put up with the traitors in the Deep State. The first thing he would do is ignore the federal judge conspiracy that is freezing the anti- Deep State progress.
I agree with your comment NY Nanny. He certainly didn't NEED to run for office to try and execute the will of the most corrupt and useless Congress in our recent history. One point I have tried to make is that Mr. Trump can only do so much. Beyond EOs he doesn't make law. The President is charged with executing the law. Only Congress can make law. Congress is the sovereign. Congress can override a Presidential veto. Congress controls the spending. CONGRESS, CONGRESS, CONGRESS!
We as a people are too absorbed with one man, whether it be Biden, Obama, Bush or Trump and we expect too much from one man. Under the Constitution the President is nothing but an executor of the will of Congress. Period.
Americans should be furious, pissing razorblades about the condition of the US Congress. All they do is hold worthless committee hearings that provide no results on anything they are yacking about. Utterly absurd. A massive failure.
While we bicker about the President the Congress continues to enrich itself, its benefactors and lobbyists. Want proof? Nancy Pelosi. Need I say more?
Yes, so many ignorant Americans are only focused on the NFL, crap TV shows, stuffing their mouths. Clueless about government policy that affects them long term. It’s truly pathetic and hopeless.
Unfortunately, we aren't saved, Miryamnae. The national debt continues to rage, the wars continue to rage, inflation is still climbing, health insurance is skyrocketing, housing is priced too high, money printing is still happening. At least the border is closed and that is good, but, everything else is not being touched. Not much Mr. Trump can do about this, honestly. Corrections to these problems MUST come from an inept and corrupt US Congress and that WILL NOT HAPPEN as long as Americans continue to glom onto the fucking two party system and continue to swing back and forth between them. God help us.
The sad fact is Cankerpuss; with America's first-past-the-post & winner-take-all voting, and the anachronistic Electoral College with its Superdelegates, there is not even a theoretical chance a Third-Party candidate can be elected POTUS. Explained well here:
It's a systemic problem. Proven in 1992 when Ross Perot challenged Bush and Clinton on a populist platform of slashing the budget deficit. He got 19.0% of the vote ~ but didn’t receive a plurality of voters in any state, giving him ZERO ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES.
Until America changes its method of voting in its President, it's stuck with its Two-Party duopoly. Voting for a Third-Party candidate is the definition of wasting your vote. For the reasons explained above, a Third-Party candidate will never become the POTUS. A third-Party Candidate has never won in 160-years. Is that right?
Since 1800, ~700-proposals to change the election system have come before Congress. None have become law by receiving a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress, or by a convention calling for by two-thirds of state legislatures and then ratified by three-fourths of the states. The framers set the bar too high.
And what we’re seeing is a concept known in political science as Duverger’s Law. The idea that in two-party political systems, voters are loath to “waste” their votes on a third-party candidate unlikely to win.
Very good analysis, Dennis. Washington put out words warning the country about two party systems, you are in excellent company.
The problem is that one party wants the dissolution of the Constitution, it no longer wants America to be a republic. A truly competitive country, economically, is the opposite of what they desire. My number one question is why? Why do these Leftists want to dissolve the Constitution? As I have said many times, what do they have to offer to replace this Constitution? IMHO, nothing but Antifa style chaos.
"In case everyone' forgotten, his slogan has always been Make AMERICA great again which is more than 99.9% of the scumbag politicians want to do. In fact, in the case of many of them, their motto is Make SOMALIA or UKRAINE great again."
That's no worse than Trump's motto: "Make Israel Great Again and Make Russia an Enemy Again."
Amen! A lot of people also take umbrage at him tooting his own horn, but neglect to realize that NO ONE ELSE is doing that, at least who has the benefit of his mega-microphone. If not him, who then?
He HAS to make a big deal about his big deals, otherwise half or more of the country would have no idea, or worse, be left to believe the media constant drumbeat that he’s a dictator and the second coming of Hitler.
The enemy is government by people unfit for office, for people unfit to rule themselves. The U.S.A. is a ship of fools, a nation of exceptional clowns.
I am forced to agree with you, Mun's Frolick. The majority of Americans are dunces of extreme measure. Obsessed with the acquisition of "stuff" and "things" they don't need. So much so that they fund all of their obsessions with debt and credit. Most Americans are liars. Pretending they are wealthy but secretly they are so buried by debt that they will never be free of it.
There is also an element of Americans who are accutely intelligent and intimately aware of what is happening. These people are very intelligent but, unfortunately, don't know what they can do to change things. They know voting doesn't work, Congressional representatives represent only themselves and any protesting action will result in jail without charges. This group, unfortunately, is in the minority.
"The majority of Americans are dunces of extreme measure. Obsessed with the acquisition of "stuff" and "things" they don't need. So much so that they fund all of their obsessions with debt and credit. Most Americans are liars."
Man oh man.....what a way to think about your fellow citizens, Cankerpuss! And of course, you are not a dunce or lair ~ self-appointed maybe.
Dennis, Cankerpuss is not completely wrong. You see evidence of his claims everywhere and everyday, Government schools perpetuate this dystopian system.
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, I'll admit that. Lots of people out there are much smarter than I am. I'm just an obscure average dude with an opinion. I can say, however, that I have no debt and I do not live beyond my means. In that sense, I am NOT a liar.
Humans aren't meant to be ruled. Flawed human beings aren't mean to rule over other humans. It is not in our nature to do so. Humans screw up everything they touch because of the genetic flaw of greed. Greed governs everything a person does and it corrupts everything. Always.
Not all of us are greedy. If you look around, you will see that really only a small percentage and those are the ones ruling over us. The rest of us mostly just want decent income and housing; after that we just want to be left alone to pursue our dreams and raise our family. It's called the Middle Class.
That is a pretty harsh statement considering how many people have common sense and can clearly express their distress over the direction the country continues to lurch.
Not really, Ben, as it is showing right now how the Left still owns a majority of the public, at least at the local level. The American people have transitioned from being the world’s most industrious to a lackadaisical group of do-nothing gimmes.
This is what happens when a people are blessed with too much for too long. They become decadent, lazy, slothful, boastful, arrogant, lovers of themselves. They do not know how to sacrifice. They have no gratitude. They have no sense of purpose. The love of themselves turns into hatred of themselves and their positions of circumstance and they turn to personal "causes" and act out to "make a difference."
What we need as a nation is a harsh war, one that knocks people back into reality, one that takes from them their security and their trinkets and brings them back to humility. A severe economic depression will do the same thing. I believe one or the other is coming.
Can you imagine America if we had an honest media that took its job seriously and held ALL government officials' feet to the fire? The media is like the US Congress. A colossal and abject failure. It needs to be destroyed all the way down to its seeded roots, thrown into the fire and its failures preached as required learning for all students for the next millennium.
Instead these fuckers continue to spew their lies and get paid handsomely to do so by US companies who continue to advertise their rubbish in their programs because we the people still tune in and watch this tripe.
"Can you imagine putting up with what he has FOR TEN FUCKING YEARS?!"
I cannot, Danimal28. Human beings have their limits. Even DJT. Human beings aren't designed to handle massive fame and popularity and enormous wealth. Our souls can only handle so much stimulus before they are damaged. Hence the reason so many wealthy and famous people are sexual deviants, drug addicts, in an out of relationships and generally just miserly and miserable people.
I have long admired DJT and I still do. I appreciate the efforts he has made when he hasn't had any financial reason to do so. He's sacrificed much even if he hasn't been as effective as he could have been. I believe he's finished. His tough facade is starting to crack and it is starting to show. Even he has his limits.
Supporting and funding genocide... importing Chinese students to spy on us? Attacking great conservatives Massie, MTG and Paul? Kissing Bourla's ass in the Oval, when millions have died from his death-jabs (that Trump still pushes)? Serving Israel first? Ignoring the murder of Charlie Kirk?
Thanks for speaking up, Danimal. There’s too much Trump bashing from our side. We’ve had a decade to observe who he is, and that’s not going to change. If James really felt the need to bash our supposed side, he could have wrote a steaming piece on the bi-partisan legislation that just passed the house, an attempt to overturn Trumps EO on federal employee unions. There’s probably enough Republican senators to pass it in the senate if the filibuster wasn’t still in place. Crazy that we have friends like these . . .
I hear you Danimal. But some of it is overboard especially when criticizing people who supported most of his policies and during impeachment as enemies (Massie, MTG).
And I hear you, sir. Remember who is funding Massie. Do some research on Jeff Yass. Globalist. And I think the globalist Koch brothers are paying MTG.
I like Massie and MTG, but the criminal aspects of Sodom on Potomac affect every one of those folks at some point.
Trump is upsetting trillions of dollars back into your pocket and THEY can't have that. Remember that they unleashed a flu virus and illegally kicked him out when you had the highest purchasing power of your life. For once.
Did you forget that the mainstream media has been viciously attacking him constantly ever since he came down the elevator? The lies are beyond insane and many people bought those lies and do not like or trust Trump as a result. His family has also taken a lot of hits and there have been numerous attempts to completely destroy him and some of his family members.
“Did you forget that the mainstream media has been viciously attacking him constantly ever since he came down the elevator?”
Did you notice that all this does is give him energy?
We have had him in our politics for 10 years, and people still don’t know the basics of the shtick. This is a person who thrives off of adversarial interactions.
So… no, I didn’t forget about any of that… but all of what I said is also true. Notice that what you said and what I said don’t contradict each other.
The man has gained fame, money, and power as a result of his political ventures. He’s not suffering.
Thank you, this is something I wish we were all struggling to understand better and keep more in mind. Carroll Quigley wrote his histories, his pupil Bill Clinton had a career which testified to the truth of everything Quigley wrote about the Anglo-American establishment, and yet for 99% of people it's like these admissions never happened.
Of course. Ever since the open rise of the intelligence agencies in the 50s & 60s (though the manipulation goes further back) it's been important to take media stories & cultural narratives w/ a grain of salt. We have to ask: whose purpose does this serve? Why am I seeing this, how does this actually affect my life (and often these things do, just in ugly slow-boil ways)? Now with AI, who knows? We're all Pontius Pilate asking, What is Truth? It's very unpleasant. My guess is we simply cannot trust versions of reality forced upon us, and have to rely on our own hearts & minds, as well as discussion with others who are seeking Truth in good faith.
I want to know who is behind all of the woke advertising. Doesn't matter who the company is or what is being advertised, every ad always has the same type of people in it. Black people who appear to be young, wealthy and happy, usually a bi-racial couple. Or, a woman who is clearly in charge of her pussified white husband. Rarely do we se an ad from any company with a solid, white dude, as the protagonist. Someone is behind all of this woke, anti-white advertising. Would like to know who it is. Probably the same as the MSM?
“What is truth?” Ask What is humanity? What is our purpose? To sit in easy chairs watching robots and AI do everything? AI is the most unsettling situation for humanity since the Resurrection of Jesus.
Boy do I agree with that statement. What is even more unsettling is how many people are embracing this AI without even the slightest understanding that this AI is going to put them on the bread lines.
Calm down Dennis, everything in that video has been known to scholars since - always, at the 54 years I've been at it. Many possibilities exist.
One small observation: ancient peoples understood their world in ways we cannot grasp. More about myth, less about history. Timeless ideas dominated their thinking, quite different than the bean counters we call historians. They didn't think of historical people as better or more real than mythical ones
Also, what we call historians, are, for the most part, 'court historians'. You don't get a professorship at Oxford or its equivalent by presenting non-approved narratives. Or rave reviews for your books. And the next generation of 'historians' get what they're taught by the last lot.
You found the body? I'm impressed. No Easter next year. I've studied religions most of my 70 years. My opinion in short: the results are inconclusive. I recoil from those who issue metaphysical pronouncements as if they sat on the throne of God. Let's all admit we don't know shit; the universe is still a mystery (to me, at least).
Turn your back on as the youth have. The only thing real now is lived experience and to the extent our individual experiences are the same is what is true.
We need to do three things: stop importing third world migrants that hate us, and deport those already here; reduce the size and scope of government dramatically; reduce/eliminate the deficit. If these three items are not corrected, everything will be for naught.
Trump is doing one of those things. On immigration, the man is a star.
The other two things? Not so much. However, when it comes to reducing the scope of government and reducing the debt, he can only do so much. It really is the Congress's responsibility to reduce the debt as they are the ones who authorize and spend the money. They could also reduce the scope of government quickly but the refuse to do so. They won't willingly correct these things. They will eventually be FORCED to correct these things.
Notice how the media is successfully trying to squelch this corruption. It is nation wide at the state level. I wonder how many of those supposed GOP legislators in Indiana are on the corruption payroll.
That explains why I see so many Somali immigrants living in houses bigger than mine and driving around in cars newer than mine. I always wondered how a Somali immigrant with no English skills can afford a $650,000 home and a $50,000 Acura SUV.
He's threatened that a few times. Haven't seen his daughters though. I'm glad, they sound like they are some pretty mean dudettes. Wouldn't want to meet them in a dark alley.
Apparently, Dennis considers not liking abortion to be a personal attack on his abortion providing daughter. It's sad to see nice rich liberals become "Lord of the Flies" if they encounter pushback. They live in their own echo chamber of delusional virtue
Probably they can "afford" it because of some kind of government subsidy or guarantee for the mortgage. And maybe the bank didn't dare refuse them a loan, fearing it would be sued for discrimination against a member of a protected class.
Spot on. I think Trump is starting to get a little over his skis. He needs to focus more on the Homeland now. Let Russia and Europe have it out and be done with it - Ukraine is G O N E, gone!
It is a puzzle. If Ukraine was going to be gone, it would be. People here forget, in their MIC zeal, that Ukraine elected a Russian sympathetic president, and it was a Biden led NATO effort to get him bounced. East Ukraine is Russian, much like the SW USA is Mexican, immigration, and they were invited in. Hmm, Biden again?
Russia has shown restraint over the years of encroachment by NATO, allowing 14 countries, most on their border to form The worthless NATO.
Europe screwed itself by cutting off Russian energy. Let them freeze.
I remember hoping the MIC bullshit about Russia would stop in 1991. It didn’t. It was the Democratic Party that started up what is happening now. Biden, Obama and HRC.
IMHO, one of the greatest lies of the 21st century is that Putin wants to take East Europe. Ask yourself, why would he want them back? The second greatest lie is that Europe gives one shit about NATO. To them, NATO is a USA financed organization, the real reason that Putin has not invaded East Europe is that he just does not want put up with European bullshit, he will allow the USA to have that unfortunate task.
At one point under Bill Clinton there was talk of allowing Russia into NATO which was quickly knee capped.
Russia is not the enemy China is and I wish we would see the common ground more than the regional power trying to have their own form of a Monroe doctrine.
They are less hegemonic by far than the US has been... and BRICS may soon leave us in the dust... especially when the dollar collapses...(happening fast now)...
Russians are white. They are us. They speak a different language but they are of our race. All of the white race should be united as we are a major MINORITY on the global scale and we are facing extinction.
If only. The Russian Federation is comprised of many nations, most of them non-White. White Russians may still be the majority, but not for long. The Muslims will soon overtake them. The cure is National Socialism, which Putin hates with an ignorant passion.
And he would never allow the Muslims to push him around and infect his Society like Germany, France, UK etc. Just like the terrorists in Beslan - he handily deals with the BS they start. If I remember, he took the scum bodies, wrapped them in pig skin and buried them in unmarked graves.
No, helping Nigeria does not help America, but it is a great way to make sure the Republicans lose the mid-terms. No one voted for Trump to make Nigeria great again. . .
If Nigeria becomes a better less corrupt country, they stop trying to flee here and maybe just maybe they begin to go after the all the scammers in that country.
They might also begin to resist the real global enemy China is becoming.
The Nigerians who flee here are just as corrupt as those who stay in Nigeria. The only difference is, the migrants want to be where opportunities for profitable corruption are greater in a richer (pro tempore) US.
Uh huh. So instead of focusing on draining the swamp in DC--you know, the things he campaigned on--he should continue to break those campaign promises and work to help Africa. Yeah, makes perfect sense.
I alternate between getting sick of Trump's ballyhoo and admiring it for its effect of changing the conversation and calling attention to something that might be important.
The vast majority of legislators, bureaucrats, and the judiciary are aligned against the people. The people are taxed heavily, without much in the way of representation. Government spends what isn't there, printing money, deflating wealth of the middle class. Justice is at least two-tiered.
Government has reached "escape velocity." Trump arrived a little too late.
My husband has been saying for a long while and daily, it all seems like a stage play.
I honestly don't believe anything anymore and find myself pulling further and further away from engaging with anything one might call news or journalism. Everything seems to be opinion minus or plus details that make it make sense.
It's exhausting and perhaps that's the EXACT point. It does seem to have driven a very large component of our country crazy.
Trying to discern the reason seems futile except to say Jesus said there'd be days like this.
It's all been done purposely to confuse us so that we no longer know which end is up, so that we don't know who to trust. Hell, there are so many 'actors' onstage now that we don't really know which ones are the real ogs or not. The deception and ability to do this is beyond belief. Most aren't aware that this is even possible. What's done routinely in Hollyweird is being done on the big stage right in front of us.
I have come to believe that it is a "stage play", that the democrats have been perfecting for years, and that the Trump administration and advisors are in the process of mastering it, and out-gaming the opposition.
Like yourself, I eagerly await the day when all news commentary is presented with an honest objective assessment.
A great piece with a sprinkle of disgust with Trump’s focus, or lack thereof, that I made similar observations about this past week. At least 50 times I heard that “we were dead but now we’re the hottest country”, and “only I could have done this, blah, blah,…” as he holds his heads of agencies captive for hours. There are so many things the public wants to see corrected and it seems as though the patronizing of the AG is over the top when we have yet to see justice for the real big criminals, and for the whole conspiracy that began with Clinton, Comey, and Brennan, that is seemingly going unpunished. All we get is that a few more illegals were caught and arrested. Yippee! That’s what makes me question my lifelong commitment of belief in Donald Trump and his crew. How many more are growing discouraged?
Thank you, IAN2364, I truly appreciated the Kitmo News show with Gerald Celente expressing his concern for the economy as we move into the summer of 2026. There was just so much of interest and, as he follows the trends, it’s highly probable that what (and why) he predicts will undoubtedly become a reality. I was glad to share this with others. Actually, the AI explosion may be the trigger for socialism everywhere. Won’t those WEF globalists be happy?!
Indications are that Trump's New Golden Age would be an environment where the population complies with the rule of law, and where a moral group of people treated each other with dignity and respect. In order for this to happen, Trump would need to make accommodations for the issues relating to unemployment and those lacking talent and opportunity. I would like to believe that a format for life could be structured to accommodate this group, but believe that leadership would make the difference between an accommodative or repressive society (consider the Japanese society, where it is my impression that citizens are at peace with their standing in life, and are highly respectful of each other, as well as their environment).
If his administration can survive to implement his agenda, I think he can salvage a terrible situation. I can envision where all the citizens of the countries of the Americas benefit from Trump's New Golden Age.
In 2025, trade schools and vocational training are a central component of Donald Trump's "Golden Age" economic vision. His administration has prioritized a shift away from "college-for-all" toward a system that elevates skilled trades as a prestigious and primary path to high-wage careers.
Trade schools and related vocational initiatives are integrated into this vision through several key 2025 policy actions:
1. The "Talent Strategy" for the Golden Age
In August 2025, the Departments of Labor, Education, and Commerce released "America’s Talent Strategy: Building the Workforce for the Golden Age". This blueprint frames trade education as essential for:
Reindustrialization: Preparing workers for "Made in America" manufacturing and construction roles.
AI Readiness: Integrating AI literacy into vocational programs to ensure workers can lead in new technological frontiers.
Economic Independence: Reducing reliance on foreign labor by rapidly upskilling domestic workers.
2. Executive Order 14278
Issued in April 2025, this order focuses on "Preparing Americans for High-Paying Skilled Trade Jobs of the Future". It directs federal agencies to:
Expand Apprenticeships: Set a target of over 1 million active registered apprenticeships per year.
Overhaul Funding: Review and redirect federal workforce programs toward industry-led, "earn-and-learn" models.
Prioritize Modern Skills: Focus training on critical sectors like energy, cybersecurity, and advanced manufacturing.
3. Structural Reorganization
The administration has actively shifted the federal oversight of career and technical education (CTE):
Department Realignment: Some CTE programs previously under the Department of Education were moved to the Department of Labor to better align education with immediate labor market needs.
Workforce Pell Grants: The 2025 strategy supports expanding Pell Grant eligibility to include short-term job training at trade schools, allowing students to use federal funds for non-degree vocational certifications.
4. "Trade Schools" as Settlement Terms
In a notable 2025 development, the administration announced a deal with Harvard University where the institution would reportedly pay $500 million and operate a series of trade schools focusing on AI and engine technology in exchange for the restoration of federal grants.
"the whole conspiracy that began with Clinton, Comey, and Brennan, that is seemingly going unpunished." Do you actually believe that Trump ever planned to hold any of these people accountable? In hindsight, it looks like a bunch of false campaign promises, nothing more.
Absolutely the strain is getting to him. Trump is, afterall, a human being. I can't imagine being subject to the ridicule, hate, derision and lies that he is subjected to on constant minute by minute basis. You have half the population that absolutely hate the man and all that he does and stands for. You have half the population that look at Mr. Trump as if he is America's savior even though Mr. Trump, as the Chief Executive of the USA has no authority to make law. He can only sign new law or veto it. Too many people are looking to him to resolve every problem facing America when it is the colossal joke, the US Congress, who they should be pointing fingers at.
Yes, the strain is getting to him. He's almost 80 years old. He should sitting on a private beach on his private island in the Caribbean surrounded by naked women as he sits in a beach chair sipping margaritas instead of putting up with the bull shit factory that is the United States of America.
I believe he's done. The Republican pussies will lose the Senate and the House in the mid terms and Trump will spend the final two years of his presidency fighting off impeachment charges.....again. God damned Democrats. Fucking Republicans. I hate them all. The fact that Americans still have faith in this system is mind boggling to me.
I am very concerned that he has allowed certain figures to still be walking the streets. Your knowledge of the layers of corruption and seditious crime is beyond comprehension.
Yet President has not made an example of ANYONE! It’s infuriating that he has not arrested the entire Soros family, the Gates family, the Fauci family. The process of arresting them will scare the shit out of many others. The entire family is the medieval I am speaking of.
He has not arrested the 7 people who told the armed forces to have a mutiny against him and then take over the government! If he has reasons why he can’t do that then maybe he should get rid of the reasons.
Look it’s quite well known that evil destroys evil. That is because evil has two sides. There is good evil meaning it is empowered to destroy a greater evil but for a good reason. Example being WW2. America used the powers of evil to stop the European front and the Asian front. We didn’t go there and negotiate some treaty. We destroyed everything and everyone in our way.
That must be the attitude now.
Trump seems to just negotiate. Maybe that is really all he is capable of. I hope not. Negotiations are garbage if Fauci people are murdering nations legally. Fauci should be publicly executed. All must be executed immediately. Will that make him look bad. Maybe not. Because unless he accomplishes that kind of medieval we are not going to see peace health and prosperity at all in this country.
Everything you say about the democrats is true, but the Tech-Bro Trumpeteers are equally evil, pushing Captain Orange to issue edicts overriding states' attempt to put the brakes on the hallucinating AI juggernaut and silencing American citizens who speak ill of that rogue nation in the mideast that gleefully deploys their Orwellian gestapo tech to scrub Gaza clean of indigenous human life. And what's with this Venezuela craziness, blowing up people by remote control in small boat off the coast of a country 2,500 miles from our shores? And are we pirates now, seizing foreign oil tankers enroute to tiny countries we've been fucking over for more than 65 years? If Mr. Trump wants to go after real drug dealers, I hear Pfizer has several well-funded operations right here in the good ol' USA.
No, we are going after the center of criminal election stealing all over the world as-well as the drug cartels. Venezuela is a major focus of corruption that assists China and Russia in the western hemisphere. The Monroe Doctrine is high on his priorities as well as election fraud even as he brings down some of the sources of wealth (the flawless drug boats) to shut off the money flow. It’s a major operation and you’re hearing only a small part of what’s happening.
This post could have just been titled, “Satan’s Minions.” It’s frightening how many billionaires (who should be all for capitalism, you would think) are financing Marxist, anarchist causes to destabilize the very society that gave them their fortunes. Why would they do that? I see no good reason other than that they have been infected with the satanic mind virus that tells them to “destroy, destroy, destroy.” It seems literally everyone is against us; even people like Elon Musk who are for us are ultimately against us, urging that we must merge with the machines to be still competitive. Rather than mere meat sacks, we’ll be the upgraded “Human 2.0” with technologically and/or genetically enhanced features. One could despair if it weren’t for the knowledge that God, the King of the Universe, is on our side.
Capitalism means competition. Why would those who have won in the past want to allow that now? Risk getting unseated or overwhelmed by a new coalition of go getters? Thus Capitalism destroys itself. Competition becomes a sin in the eyes of the ruling clique.
Thus muse on the madness of conflating this twisted philosophy with conservatism.
God, the King of the Universe, only exists in your head, Shannara?
If he did exist, why has he done nothing for 5,000+ years?
A philosophical argument for God and a ham sandwich combined are worth slightly less than a ham sandwich. You can have as many philosophical arguments for “God” as you like, it doesn't change the fact that there's no evidence that there is one.
There's plenty of evidence, but it resides in the consciousness of those who have had personal, spiritual experience. You don't find evidence for God by looking for it in the material world like detectives in TV crime programs.
Personal experience is not a valid method to determine if something is true.
If it were, we would have no way of determining whose experience reflects reality. Believers cannot rationally reason that personal experiences are the pathway to truth ~ because they don’t accept other people’s experiences as proof of the claims they make with whom they disagree.
Dennis, you are mixing up two different kinds of truth.
For anything in the material world perceived by the senses, personal experience can't be cited as truth. That patch of water ahead on the highway turns out to be an optical illusion. Hearing a voice in the running shower water is another illusion.
But the experience of God, however partial, reported by mystics and those touched by grace is not simply another piece of evidence among others in the world of the senses. It is of a different quality, another level of reality. Mystics have always had trouble describing it because words used for normal everyday reality are inadequate for spiritual experience.
The transcendent quality of an individual's perception is only proof for that person. It can't be shared in its essence with someone else verbally or logically. But for anyone blessed by even a touch of the Absolute, no further proof is needed.
You accept that "this" (all of it) is really happening, right? So if and when you leave you body in conscious astral projection, you will believe that too - no matter who or how many think you are deluded.
Please send the last paragraph of this piece directly to Donald Trump, return receipt, signature required. He is frittering away his authority and it is disturbing. We need him to be more serious and, yes, resolute.
And stop hawking cheap watches on Fox News! Act like a President and not some cheap sideshow huckster!
I hear he also sells mini-whiskey barrels if the watches don’t appeal to you. It’s pretty unbelievable. He closed the borders though and if that’s all that gets done it’s still 10x better than living under dictators (democrats).
There does seem to be a Gene Simmons aspect to Trump.
It takes millions of dollars to defend oneself from the constant invented crimes.
Poor widow Donnie. They're always picking on him.
Poor widdle Phil a martyr in his own time.
Uhhh ... martyrs are dead, Ben. That's the key part of being a martyr.
-----
Ben always telling CFN what I think. You know? Like a selfish 16 y.o. popular, mean girl. Exactly the same.
He closed a few of our obviously porous borders, but to actually address illegal entry? He has no real spine.
Sadly, nothing he has done has an ounce of permanent effect. It's time to get the law of the land to reflect the wishes of the founding fathers and of the true CITIZENRY.
He has the bully pulpit and needs to use it to embarrass the legislature into serious reforms that won't get evaporated by the next occupant of the oval office.
Yes, take a victory lap, but either point out the temporary nature of the accomplishment and force the representative and senators to justify their inaction in public or turn the microphone over to someone who can do it effectively... J. D. Vance?
The Charlie Kirk "memorial" was just one big infomercial with merch ads and membership ads scrolling the screen throughout the whole thing.
If one can judge a person by the enemies he makes, Trump is golden. His steel-plated fortitude in the face of possibly the most vicious opposition any US president has dealt with is admirable.
Still, ultimately a president must act presidential if he knows what's good for him. I don't follow closely the monkeyshines of political players, including Trump -- that way madness lies. I'm glad to say I missed his "big infomercial with merch ads and membership ads." But if he acts like a televangelist pitchman or video timeshares salesman, it has to undercut the undefinable but potent gravitas a great leader needs.
Donald Trump is about as presidential as a steaming bag of feces.
Thats stupid and childish, but even ME as a loyalist can give it a bit of credence. That said, after the last 4 years of Boris Karloff and his colored pant-suited idiot veep, Trump and Vance appear as God and Jesus.
Sacrilege.
-----
TPTB swing power back-&-forth while carefully maintaining a 50/50 split. Clinton, Dubya, Obummer, Trump 45, Weekend at Bernie's, Trump 47, etc. They're all charged with perpetuating this charade of democracy in their simple divide-&-conquer m.o.
Sing it Sonny.
Ignore the troll who hates all things American.
Name a recent world leader outside of Putin who hasn't been a POS in the last 30+ years.
But the vast majority were presidential.
Putin is the finest national leader on the planet.
It can't be done. Putin included.
And you ARE a steaming bag of feces. Say some more and make the proof of what you are irrefutable.
Scroll. bud. My research, logic, analysis, conclusions and commentary are sprinkled generously throughout CFN.
Agreed!
Why aren't the perps mentioned in this article Doxxed ? Names are one thing addresses, known locations, assets, close family members, details locations pics.
Transportation methods etc..
Every bit of information possible.
Level the playing field a bit.
Make Communist billionaires have to look over their shoulders
Great idea which I have wondered about myself. Why are these cretins sacrosanct? Even the fact that we are not violent or malicious like the leftist loons should not stop a little doxing and harassment directed at them. After all, they are constantly spending and colluding to make our lives more difficult and even impossible, so why a no-go zone on their private lives. They are truly satanic and even God would not object to a little payback, just as protecting ones self with CC is no sin. We are allowed to protect ourselves and that is a form of self protection against ultra-wealthy who absolutely do mean us harm.
Ditto.
Rabbit hole.

Yes please!
And "Trump Care" or "TrumpRX" (partnering with Pfizer!)
He makes easier to understand (kinda) the TDS’ers out there with stupid bullSchiff like that.
Very cringe worthy! Wanna puke every time I see it
Have you looked at the price of them things?
They are not a Rolex but they are not cheap in the sense of price tag.
I wonder though. If Trump just “shut up” and acted like the rest of the Deep State, he would be labeled by his supporters as a milquetoast doing nothing. Just read this blog over the last year to get that drift, “He promised this and that and has not done much”. The man has been almost totally blocked from doing his agenda by a concerted effort by the Left. He is totally outnumbered and overpowered. I think I would be just a little frustrated by such a group of morons destroying the country that I love, (or loved?). I fully expect Trump to withdraw from even trying if 2026 goes sour.
Let Trump be Trump and nail these SOBs with everything he has got.
Just wait to see how much less he "gets done" when the GOP loses the House (and maybe even the Senate) next year. The House RINOs are rolling over, the Senate RINOs failed to do what needed to be done (end the filibuster) in order to pass the election reform legislation necessary to prevent the Democrats from cheating their way into power again. And both houses have failed to address the exploding health insurance cost situation, while having gold-plated health insurance themselves.
Trump should just resign the day after the election, when it becomes clear that the Democrats have swept the midterms. None of us have the time to go though the impeachment melodrama again.
He'll be spending all of his time fighting back impeachment charges just as he did the last two years of his first term.
The uniparty hasn't done a fucking thing to fix anything and stupid Americans continue to vote for the incumbent. It's hard to wrap one's brain around this stuff. How can millions of people be so duped, so clueless, so damned stupid.
Long have I believe that DJT is not a solution to what ails America. DJT is a symptom of a very sick political system and a people who have no where to turn for healing of that sick system.
We are boned and we are going down hard. Our last chance was DJT and he's just too damned old, tired and worn down by the constant barrage of lies and fakery. He tried, I'll give him that, but the secret combinations run too deep. Nothing but absolute collapse will fix what we have now.
It’s no surprise (to me) how stupid millions of Americans are. I see it just by walking out my door and going to the supermarket. Costco is even worse; I need a damn Xanax just to keep my blood pressure down, with all the stupidity and retardation I witness… a lot of these Boomers didn’t age well ad they’re loose among us.
Also, a lot of people in these comments section are also out to lunch. They’re well-meaning, but their naivety and credulity is astonishing. Pointing out the truth triggers them. Just have a look at this "JJ" character, who just called me a "loud and stupid hemorrhoid" who should "F-0ff," then blocked me.
Yes, when people resort to child like insults it is clear they have given up the argument. I always take such insults as a compliment. I won and they know it.
This guy “JohnAZ” is also another great example of cluelessness, pollyanna, and credulity.
Our last chance is an aroused citizenry and the 2nd Amendment.
But that takes selfishness and Courage
An aroused citizenry that is all hopped upon anti-depressants, booze and marijuana, pornography addiction, sports addiction, shopping and spending addictions , television addictions and so busy working three jobs to pay for that car and house they don't need? That citizenry?
Not going to happen.
Right.
Good luck with that.

Not sure I'm following you here, Phil.
MK-Ultra was far more than the limited hangout that everyone knows about. MK-Utra wasn't just mind-control in the Sirhan-Sirhan, Ted-Kazinski-on-LSD sense. Much of what was learned in the lab was applied to the US populace. The US populace as a whole was engineered by Fonzie and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

It's easy. Trump has betrayed the country just like every president since Reagan.
Are you sure you want to?
I cling to shreds of hope. Hoping he doesn't say something like "Apre moi, le deluge."
Trump’s presidency has been hampered by nothing more than Trump himself. The excitement of the election, imo, was similar to the first term of President Obama. The African American community quickly became disillusioned as he pivoted away from what was a core base of his supporters to support the banks/financial institutions. Trump in his dismissal of the Epstein case dismissed the concern of his core base even tweeting (paraphrasing) that if they don’t support everything he says they aren’t MAGA. Which opened the door for the new MAGA republicans which the day before were anti-MAGA republicans. Ted Cruz?
Now after almost 12 months in office what actually has been done? Patel at FBI is a failure. Bondi… Where are the arrests? Hegseth, renaming DOD to Department of War points to what we are and always have been as a country. At least it’s honest I guess. The bombing of Iran doesn’t sit well with core MAGA. Tulsi Gabbard clashed with the President for telling the truth.
I don’t see how Trump can save the midterms. But people have short memories and certainly the Democrats haven’t figured out how to appeal to a wide audience, so there is that.
Yes to all of the above. And then the Epstein debacle, the latest of which is repeatedly calling Marjorie Taylor Green a traitor. Absolutely despicable.
Calling her (or anyone without clear facts) a traitor marks him as emotionally unfit to be president. F—-ing outrageous
High IQ, low EQ. ASD
"Hegseth, renaming DOD to Department of War points to what we are and always have been as a country. At least it’s honest I guess."
Brilliant.
I agree with you 100%, Paul.
Paul, whose fault is that, his or the minions against him.
I believe it is Trumps fault. He owns the Epstein debacle. Which has set the tone for his administration and quite honestly the first and biggest rupture of his base supporters. Once his base supporters felt screwed over they have been more critical of everything else.
He owns the Epstein debacle? It is released by judicial order. How come we still know nothing? Names have been published, Clinton amongst them, Gates, Andrew, but not Trump yet. So WTF?
Now you mention impeachment, someone in Congress (last week) proposed impeachment proceedings against Trump and RFK. The Demonic-Dems never sleep.
It was overwhelmingly defeated.
Because the GOP still has the House majority. You do know how impeachment works, right?
probably better than you.
You seem to be a loud and stupid hemorrhoid...
Why not F-0ff?
He can't just resign they will begin another series of sham court cases against him the instant he does.
That's when he holds a press conference from the resolute desk and he calmly looks at the camera, raises his left hand and extends his middle finger. He then resolutely says, "fuck you America. I did my best and all you morons did was fight against me." He then stands up from the resolute desk and quietly disappears, leaves the ruins of America to the people, and spends the rest of his days in quiet retirement somewhere in the Atlantic on a private island.
Well.......that's what I'd do if I had his money.
He can resign and have Peter Thiel, er... JD Vance... pardon him.
I thought I blocked you. I’ll take care of that now.
The House just overwhelmingly shot down an impeachment effort by Al Green.
Your comment is missing one thing, if Trump resigns, what do you want to take his place?
Easy to shoot down an impeachment charge when the Republicans still have the majority. Chucky is talking about after the midterms when the Republican pussies lose the House and the Senate because they did nothing to fix sham American elections.
RINO pussies. GOPe Bush faction pussies. Actual MAGA in DC, in spite of being the majority of Republican voters, could hold a caucus in a shuttle bus. For any real change, voters must primary out the majority of current Republican office holders and replace them with MAGA representatives.
Nothing will happen until those who want change are ready to die to make it happen.
I don't distinguish between Republicans and RINOs anymore, JS. Too me, if they have an R beside their name they are Republicans. I'm sick and tired of trying to distinguish between good Republicans and bad Republicans. Even MAGA Republicans still vote with the bosses.
It takes 2/3s in the Senate to convict..The charges are horseshit. It will never happen. Maybe it will give the worthless Congress something to do. Green has already been censured, who gives a damn what he thinks.
If another impeachment attempt is made, it wil be the end of America.
Obviously, Vance as VP would take his place. Also, what does the House just shooting down an impeachment effort by Al Green have to do with anything? The GOP still has the majority, albeit slim. The successful impeachment will come after the Democrats win the House in 2026.
Wonderful, no chance of conviction.
Don’t be so sure of that. If the Democrats also win the Senate, you have several RINOs who hate Trump and have voted against his interests and nominees in the past. Mitch McConnell, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski are three that come to mind off the top of my head. The disguises may come off of others, if given the opportunity to curb-stomp Trump when he’s down, with little to no personal political ramifications.
Don’t forget, the second Trump impeachment vote was 57-43, with seven GOP senators voting to convict… 10 votes short, but still a defection and betrayal.
Do you remember the debacle of Pelosi et al, marching the impeachment over to the Senate last time. Made no difference.
Impeachment is not supposed to be a political tool, but a way of removing a president or other official for crimes or treason. We went 200+ years before the rot that started in the 90s with Clinton as the shitheads in the Deep State started using it as a political tool. Easy to do too when one side, the uniparty has control.
DC is out of control, no control by the electorate, or anything else.
They impeached Andrew Johnson, who was Abraham Lincoln’s VP who succeeded Lincoln when he was assassinated. He survived removal by one vote in the Senate.
Nixon was about to be impeached but he resigned once the GOP senators visited him and told him there was no way he’d survive a removal vote in the Senate. (Both houses were controlled by Democrats at that time.)
Please, John, before you post about something, make sure you know what you’re talking about.
Immediately after the vote, Rep. Green was heard to say: "Take Me To The River!" The silvery sweet stylings of Al Green.
Yah, but I think he would be better served by being a bit more presidential. Name calling and some of the silly theatrics turn off the middle normies and lead them to more readily believe the "outrage" of the left.
The pressure of being compromised and controlled by Zionist Israel is melting him down.
Frankly if you continues to Fritter away his gravitas and Authority in childish tweets and Tantrums, he, and we, can kiss both the 2026 midterms and all the work Trump has managed to accomplish so far goodbye. He needs to get his ego under control, bottom line.
IF he would just quiet down, how many folks would accuse him of giving up and not effecting change? Do the Ult-Left leaders refrain from calling him names, ever? Did you see Al Greens diatribe? That is the problem, the Left is allowed to lie, cheat, steal, scream, name call, etc. and no one on the Right has the cojones to fight back, except Trump. No wonder things are the way they are, the bullies always win.
even on this blog.
“Quiet, Piggy”
“She’s ugly, inside and out”
“You’re a stupid reporter.”
“He’s a retard”
But I think my favorite was his mock video, in which he’s gleefully dumping shit from a jet fighter on American rally-goers who dared to exercise their right to peaceable assembly. What a guy.
Yeah, he’s a real piece of work. I simply can’t imagine why he’s not more popular with anybody who’s not already busy kissing his ass. Why do you think that might be?
"The man has been almost totally blocked from doing his agenda by a concerted effort by the Left. He is totally outnumbered and overpowered."
Do you really believe it's just the "left" blocking him? He has completely betrayed this country. His hucksterism is Biden level, he is turning our country over to dual citizens who put another country first while draining away our assets and Trump keeps giving them more power to extract what remains of the middle class wealth while getting ready to enslave us in a digital prison. The nightmare Orwel warned is upon us and if you think the history of Nationalist Socialism was bad wait until you see what the folks from Palantir, Oracle, Google, Microsoft and the Tikvah Organization has in store for us. has in store for us.
It shows what I’ve said for years: Voices and Votes Will. Not. Fix. This.
The Dems/leftist Marxists would sue him for breathing if they could. He has literally been hamstrung in everything he’s trying to do. The latest being the lawsuit over the ballroom. How silly. The really bad thing is that no one has been held accountable. I think that is what really galls. Just look at Comey being able to skate. Then there are the stupid Republicans like the ones in Indiana overwhelmingly rejecting the redistricting. The Democrats would have voted for it so fast it would make your head spin. I can totally see Trump withdrawing if 2026 goes south. He’d probably be thinking “why bother, not much of a country left to save”.
In the movie/play 1776: John Adam’s laments, singing “Does anybody care” when the Loyalist powers in the Continental Congress seemed to have the upper hand. Trump faces the same quagmire today, will there be a “miracle” to save the country today?
I don't think he gives a shit, to be honest. He's done a lot of good, but he won't listen to people who tell him he's fucking up.
Trump's behavior is right in line with his assigned role by the Puppet Masters as the Commander-in-Chief of the "Bread and Circuses" project. Anyone who is surprised or disappointed - well, you haven't been paying attention.
In the old days, the collapse of an Empire was a process that chugged along slowly, with a cast of well-known and trusted players moving the parts around until a direction towards critical mass appeared as the next target. Today's collapse, while it can still be described as the Long Emergency, is a turbo-charged ride through Hell - with chaos, lies, propaganda and psychological warfare techniques not possible until the technology made possible via fossil fuels appeared on the scene. The Information Age provided new glimpses to how the process behind the scenes really works, and who the movers and shakers really are, and who they work for, but no clear picture of who's at the helm or what goals are providing the various motivations and agenda to what end.
Discerning reality in all the chaos and trying to prioritize and address how to solve problems and mitigate the predicaments is now impossible and at a Global Scale. The potential for Unintended Consequences as people and pieces are flung off the Merry-go-Round of Decline in unpredictable ways has never been higher. We're at a stage now in the cakewalk where the fear of stopping the music is cringe worthy - with so many people shuffling along and so few chairs.
Buckle up. We're entering the "Decades in Weeks" history timeline, and changes are coming that will be simply stunning.
Bingo. Spot on.
Highway to Hell! Quick Phil, play a Thousand Clowns.
Wow! Yes indeed.. finally .speaking truth…
If he did not give a shit, would he do the things he is criticized for here. IMHO, he cares too much. It does not help much in this effed up Leftist country.
Think for a moment, Russia threw out the communistic bastards in 1991, where did they go? Right here and Europe.
I meant that he doesn't give a shit when someone gives him constructive criticism (e.g., don't call a mediot a "pig" or "the dumbest, most corrupt [politician, mediot, whatever] in history"), or tell us how that fucking drama queen dimwit MTG is a "traitor" because she threw a fit because he won't endorse her run for the Senate. WE ALL KNOW SHE'S A BAG OF SHIT, DON! WE'VE TOLD YOU THAT FOR YEARS, but you wouldn't fucking listen because you saw her as a fellow disruptor.
Barring a miraculous economic recovery or a world war, the communists will win in 2026 and 2028, and that'll be it. And anyone who supported Trump will be ruined, just to teach everyone a lesson not to fuck with the satanic Deep State.
That's right, UncleBob9. We've been shown what happens to anyone who leaves the plantation, and if someone like Trump--billionaire, (formerly) well-liked, mature, white, male--can't make it, who then? I still believe he is the Gray Champion for our current iteration of the Fourth Turning, but we have to remember that Fourth Turnings don't always turn out well. America has been incredibly lucky with the outcomes of the last several Fourths, but there's no guarantee the USA will come out of this one sitting as prettily. I fear we are in for a hell of a hard ride down. And Trump has tried, damn it. He's tried.
No one can be better than they are, at least not without grace. Trump took money from the Zionists, now he must do as they say or else. He might really love America, at least at times, but they want us flooded with the filth of the 3rd World, and that's what he will do, "legally" - as if such a thing could ever be legitimately legal since it is not moral.
He is f***ing up. He still supports Big Pharma, the Great Satan of our times.
It will soon be illegal to be opposed to Donald Trump. Over anything.
Good.
And yet, to many, he is accomplishing so much. Take a step back and consider how much you really know about what Trump is doing / has done; how much of what you “know” is actually true? We are all plugged into a vast propaganda machine, where information is filtered and perception is distorted. Distraction is the name of the game, and we are coerced into having strong opinions about things we don’t really understand. No one is perfect, certainly not Trump.
What I like so much about the TV channel RAV or Real Americas Voice is that they don't just give a report. If there is a press conference or speech, they show it live. They cover hearings live. During the Biden invasion they had reporters showing the invaders marching through the Darien Gap and showed the legions of Muslim males and obvious Chinese soldier/migrants. As far as I know, they were the only ones who showed Majorkas showing up in a helicopter in Central America to direct and coordinate the invasion, build larger roads and bridges to accommodate the movement. The Mrs. sure didn't get any of that on "The Today Show" or any of the evening news shows.
If Trump gets Americans to take a hard honest look at their own lives and their purpose on the face of this earth, he will have accomplished one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.
Won't happen Tom Clark. Americans are too busy doing drugs, too worried about their next orgasm, too busy watching trash shows like "mormon housewives" or "the Bachelor" or too consumed with betting on Fan Duel or Draft Kings on the color of Pat Mahommes's jock strap. This is a people that have become far too wealthy, too lazy, too decadent, too greedy and too ignorant to warrant a healthy country. Nothing but true destitution will correct a people like this.
Yup, humankind has come a long way since 7/22/69, hasn't it?

AI Overview
Apollo 1 - NASA
No, Virgil "Gus" Grissom was not the first man on the Moon; that was Neil Armstrong, but Grissom, one of America's original astronauts, was slated to command the first Apollo lunar landing mission and was widely expected to be the first American to walk on the Moon, had he not tragically died in the Apollo 1 fire in 1967. He was a pioneering astronaut, the second American in space, and the first to fly in space twice, but his life was cut short before the Apollo 11 Moon landing.
Mr. Clark, who is that on Virgil's back? Thank you for your time in this matter. James
You forget that most Americans don't want to take a hard look at anything -- themselves, their spouses, their kids, their finances, their friends, anything. It's easier to bury their heads in the sand and hope to Christ they won't lose their asses in one way or other. And this, at heart, is the reason people don't want to deal with Trump: he forces them to realize that they've built their lives on mountains of shit, whether it's materialism or drugs or video games or marrying someone who's more toxic than a barrel of PCBs or whatever. It's easier to hide and/or buy into the Swamp's lies, pushed mainly by Democrats but also by many Republicans; that way, we don't have to deal with shit before it swallows them whole.
Nor are any of his doubles.
I hope year2 is just trying to win the midterms with more of year 1 in years 3 and 4.
The Indiana Senate just torpedoed that hope by refusing to redistricting the state. "We're being principled!" In warfare -- and this is warfare-- being principled usually causes you to be dead.
An author recently wrote a book (which I have, but havent read yet) comparing Trump to King Jehu. They are/ were brash, abrasive, and able to make reforms. Jehu mysteriously lost his effectiveness, and Trump also seems to be losing his ability to move mountains, even as he calls reporterettes "pigs." If he fails, we're cooked -- well, even if he succeeds we're cooked, just not as fast or as thoroughly. Remember, Sodom and Gomorrah were annihilated, bit they didn't know God; the United States, above all other countries, has no excuse for what we're doing: condoning crime, celebrating crooked politicians like Letitia James getting off, child rape that may or may not be prosecuted, mass arson, compulsory use of untested medication, etc. ad nauseum.
It was broadcast widely that the Indiana legislature is GOP. Maybe, but it is definitely not MAGA and obviously infused with RINOs. Trumps enemies are not just asses, but many rogue elephants. It is the Deep State that is the problem, and it extends into the local theaters.
JohnAZ, enough with the MAGA, my friend. MAGA is dead. It is going the way of the TEA Party. There is no MAGA anymore.
As MAGA is the only hope for a return to Constitutional America, we better hope it is not dead. A real question though is can it stand up without Trump?
Massie and MTG are the true MAGAs.
Can America eliminate all the things that are slowly killing us, many by using our Constitution against itself? No. There may be other pols who include parts of MAGA in their rhetoric, but it's dead without Trump. And he's quickly wearing out his welcome with people via his comments about worthless sacks of shit like Ilhan Omar and AOC.
Please distinguish between Zionist MAGA and America First. Pastor Chuck Baldwin and the Constiution Party have always been clear on this.
True. Trump himself destroyed it... via his breaking up DOGE, the best idea of his administration (Elon's idea)... his funding and support of genocide... his war crime unprovoked bombings of Yemen and Iran... his extrajudicial murders of suspected small-boat "drug runners"... his embracing Gates, Zuckerturd, Bourla and Mamdani...
And don't forget about America's embracing of child murder....abortion. This country has blood on its hands and it must atone for its sins. We are only seeing the beginning of that atonement.
Excellent post, Unclebob. Your words are chilling but they are true.
I thought you wanted this debate to be put to bed yesterday, Cankerpuss.
But here you go again "embracing of child murder....abortion."
Give it a rest, eh! Abortion is not murder.
Abortion is the process of murder.
Anti-abortion folks supporting fetal personhood are doing no more than disempowering women, Carolyn,
Is that what you want? Do you want the gubmint and the church getting between you, your husband and your doctor's decision?
I'm not debating the merits of abortion, Dennis, just stating my opinion and my beliefs. Just as you have done.
Yes, but I thought yesterday we agreed to disagree.
But here you are again, banging your drum....."abortion is murder"
You can't let it go.
The facts are that accounts of the abortion problem that treat it as an example of justified homicide fail to dislodge the centrality of prenatal personhood to the moral and legal status of abortion.
Fetal personhood laws open the door for further surveillance and punishment during pregnancy. Disempowering women's rights.
Anti-abortion organisers have used fetal personhood to weaponize statutes on child abuse and neglect against pregnant people.
The encroachment of punitive law into women's healthcare leads to mistrust between providers and patients, as patients fear their providers reporting them to authorities. Resulting in more back alley "coat hanger" abortions.
https://www.bmj.com/content/388/bmj.r372
"Granting separate legal rights to embryos and fetuses violates the rights, health, and wellbeing of the person who is carrying the pregnancy. The criminalisation of substance use and substance use disorder during pregnancy and the criminalisation of abortion illustrate the interconnected systems of oppression that prey on the most vulnerable communities. Women of colour and on low incomes are overrepresented not only among people getting abortions, but also in maternal mortality and morbidity rates, and among people in contact with the carceral system overall and for charges related to pregnancy. As more states pass laws that criminalise abortion care and pregnancy loss, and expand surveillance and punishment of actions deemed harmful to “unborn life,” reproductive healthcare is endangered, bodily autonomy is eviscerated, and health and economic inequities will worsen."
Take care Cankerpuss.
The hell it isn’t! Shame!
You can’t make me wear a mask, but you can force someone to have a baby they don’t want. Who are these people? What a Country eh!
Jehu was a great man. He took no chances with Jezebel, who already destroyed a few great men of Israel. He called up to her servants on the balcony, "Will you not throw her down?". They threw her down.
Bravo! It sounds like you are getting pretty close to being politically red pilled.
Yes, Mr. Trump, more gravitas will go a long way in garnering solid support for your efforts!
I 2nd this! All in favor? Aye’s have it.
He'll never get the message. It will be intercepted by the She-wolf in sheep's clothing, Susie Wiles, the Golden Golem's Chief of Staff. We are on our own, my friend. I still prep and plan as though Harris and Waltz won. I know no one is coming to save this decrepit white, Christian, heterosexual Army veteran. I and my loved ones are on our own. Bleib ubrig.
Millions of Americans not of the leftist persuasion are like you and prepared, which the left in its arrogance does not understand or does not believe. Like the pols from the Dem strongholds, they think everyone is either a soy boy or too stupid to understand their corruption and evil. Wrong for 10's of millions of ex-military, CEO's, and hunters. Yet the Dems and their useful idiot supporters keep pushing.
Resolute? How about signing an EO to stop the states from regulating the expansion of A/i? Tech terrorism, anyone?
Perhaps the states regulating the AI data centers will put an end to their environmental destruction and land grabs which is out of control yet not reported in MSM. It is much needed.
Trump’s fragile ego is his Achilles heel
We should all send a card with the last paragraph directly to President Trump. Sometimes it’s just better to ignore the ignorant idiots instead of calling them names …. that will never harm them.
Yes. Please.
Trump has been more resolute than anyone can imagine the last ten years so I don't care if he rips folks in public. The UniParty hates him no matter what.
Can you imagine putting up with what he has FOR TEN FUCKING YEARS?!
Here is what is important, resolutely: he is doing the best job anyone can do to restore our economy, stop immigration, and protect the western hemisphere again. The forces arrayed against him - us Normals - are more than anyone can even imagine.
Respectfully,
Here, here! EXCELLENT. Couldn't agree more. HOW ABOUT WE SHOW A LITTLE GRATITUDE TO THE GUY WHO JUST ABOUT GAVE UP HIS FREAKIN' LIFE FOR US!!
Let President Trump hawk his gold plated VISA cards, his Trump watches and whatever other doo dads he wants to promote for himself or his brand. I don't care. Somehow, EVERYTHING this man does is for the good of America and the American People.
The things that he has accomplished in the short time he's been back in office are monumental but instead of bragging about our great President, we're back to talking about his mean tweets and insults. Who TF cares? You think Putin or the Chi Com guy give two shits about that crap when they're figuring out ways to destroy our country?
Trump has done more in less than a year for US than the filthy Commie Dems have done in the last half a century. All the while he never whines or complains, he just keeps coming back stronger than ever.
In case everyone' forgotten, his slogan has always been Make AMERICA great again which is more than 99.9% of the scumbag politicians want to do. In fact, in the case of many of them, their motto is Make SOMALIA or UKRAINE great again.
Frankly I don't give a rat's ass if he puts gold toilets in the new and glorious party room he's constructing WITH HIS OWN MONEY.
If Donald Trump is a King, more power to him. He's OUR King and nobody forget it. Especially all those Deep State bastards who never stop trying to take him out so they can once again be free to rob and plunder our Republic.
Wow! Here, here!
If Trump was a king, he would not put up with the traitors in the Deep State. The first thing he would do is ignore the federal judge conspiracy that is freezing the anti- Deep State progress.
Deep down I think Americans want a king. Always have. They tried to make Washington a king and he refused.
The American people are lemmings now, craving a leader to direct them to the cliff. At least a small majority of them.
Why am I guessing that you think you are not a lemming......right?
Not like you.
I agree with your comment NY Nanny. He certainly didn't NEED to run for office to try and execute the will of the most corrupt and useless Congress in our recent history. One point I have tried to make is that Mr. Trump can only do so much. Beyond EOs he doesn't make law. The President is charged with executing the law. Only Congress can make law. Congress is the sovereign. Congress can override a Presidential veto. Congress controls the spending. CONGRESS, CONGRESS, CONGRESS!
We as a people are too absorbed with one man, whether it be Biden, Obama, Bush or Trump and we expect too much from one man. Under the Constitution the President is nothing but an executor of the will of Congress. Period.
Americans should be furious, pissing razorblades about the condition of the US Congress. All they do is hold worthless committee hearings that provide no results on anything they are yacking about. Utterly absurd. A massive failure.
While we bicker about the President the Congress continues to enrich itself, its benefactors and lobbyists. Want proof? Nancy Pelosi. Need I say more?
AOC and Omar too. Hopefully, Omar is going to pay for her corruption, but I would not bet on it.
She will pay. Trump’s childish, ‘I don’t like her, send her home,’ has incredible implications. She’s packing.
Is she taking the $30 million she has stolen with fraud? Would rather see her in a federal prison locked down.
RIGHT THE HELL ON!!
Yes, so many ignorant Americans are only focused on the NFL, crap TV shows, stuffing their mouths. Clueless about government policy that affects them long term. It’s truly pathetic and hopeless.
Phucking Aye. No one could have saved us or done more common sense right turns in less than a year.
Unfortunately, we aren't saved, Miryamnae. The national debt continues to rage, the wars continue to rage, inflation is still climbing, health insurance is skyrocketing, housing is priced too high, money printing is still happening. At least the border is closed and that is good, but, everything else is not being touched. Not much Mr. Trump can do about this, honestly. Corrections to these problems MUST come from an inept and corrupt US Congress and that WILL NOT HAPPEN as long as Americans continue to glom onto the fucking two party system and continue to swing back and forth between them. God help us.
The sad fact is Cankerpuss; with America's first-past-the-post & winner-take-all voting, and the anachronistic Electoral College with its Superdelegates, there is not even a theoretical chance a Third-Party candidate can be elected POTUS. Explained well here:
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/america-isnt-really-set-up-for-third-party-presidential-bids/
It's a systemic problem. Proven in 1992 when Ross Perot challenged Bush and Clinton on a populist platform of slashing the budget deficit. He got 19.0% of the vote ~ but didn’t receive a plurality of voters in any state, giving him ZERO ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES.
Until America changes its method of voting in its President, it's stuck with its Two-Party duopoly. Voting for a Third-Party candidate is the definition of wasting your vote. For the reasons explained above, a Third-Party candidate will never become the POTUS. A third-Party Candidate has never won in 160-years. Is that right?
Since 1800, ~700-proposals to change the election system have come before Congress. None have become law by receiving a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress, or by a convention calling for by two-thirds of state legislatures and then ratified by three-fourths of the states. The framers set the bar too high.
And what we’re seeing is a concept known in political science as Duverger’s Law. The idea that in two-party political systems, voters are loath to “waste” their votes on a third-party candidate unlikely to win.
Wadda yuh think? Do I have this right?
Very good analysis, Dennis. Washington put out words warning the country about two party systems, you are in excellent company.
The problem is that one party wants the dissolution of the Constitution, it no longer wants America to be a republic. A truly competitive country, economically, is the opposite of what they desire. My number one question is why? Why do these Leftists want to dissolve the Constitution? As I have said many times, what do they have to offer to replace this Constitution? IMHO, nothing but Antifa style chaos.
Yes, Antifa, the storm troopers of the Dems, along with blm and millions of illegal military aged men lurking when not robbing or killing.
Excellent analysis, DM. Well said.
Trusting the American public case and point Al Gore won the majority of votes who would trust that huckster to run anything?
The same results would have happened but the drive to destroy America would have accelerated with Gore at the tiller.
His stance on carbon taxes would have utterly destroyed what little manufacturing still existed.
Blood Gore carbon credit scam!
God help us, yes.
"In case everyone' forgotten, his slogan has always been Make AMERICA great again which is more than 99.9% of the scumbag politicians want to do. In fact, in the case of many of them, their motto is Make SOMALIA or UKRAINE great again."
That's no worse than Trump's motto: "Make Israel Great Again and Make Russia an Enemy Again."
Trump told Netanyahu to get lost some time ago and he is now working with Putin to create a peace deal with Ukraine.
👏👏👏👏👍💯🎯
Amen! A lot of people also take umbrage at him tooting his own horn, but neglect to realize that NO ONE ELSE is doing that, at least who has the benefit of his mega-microphone. If not him, who then?
He HAS to make a big deal about his big deals, otherwise half or more of the country would have no idea, or worse, be left to believe the media constant drumbeat that he’s a dictator and the second coming of Hitler.
As the saying goes, it’s no brag - just fact.
The enemy is the 95% of the media and the fools that believe them. The lack of national education is appalling.
The enemy is government by people unfit for office, for people unfit to rule themselves. The U.S.A. is a ship of fools, a nation of exceptional clowns.
I am forced to agree with you, Mun's Frolick. The majority of Americans are dunces of extreme measure. Obsessed with the acquisition of "stuff" and "things" they don't need. So much so that they fund all of their obsessions with debt and credit. Most Americans are liars. Pretending they are wealthy but secretly they are so buried by debt that they will never be free of it.
There is also an element of Americans who are accutely intelligent and intimately aware of what is happening. These people are very intelligent but, unfortunately, don't know what they can do to change things. They know voting doesn't work, Congressional representatives represent only themselves and any protesting action will result in jail without charges. This group, unfortunately, is in the minority.
"The majority of Americans are dunces of extreme measure. Obsessed with the acquisition of "stuff" and "things" they don't need. So much so that they fund all of their obsessions with debt and credit. Most Americans are liars."
Man oh man.....what a way to think about your fellow citizens, Cankerpuss! And of course, you are not a dunce or lair ~ self-appointed maybe.
Take care.
Come on, Dennis. You can do better than that.
Dennis, Cankerpuss is not completely wrong. You see evidence of his claims everywhere and everyday, Government schools perpetuate this dystopian system.
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, I'll admit that. Lots of people out there are much smarter than I am. I'm just an obscure average dude with an opinion. I can say, however, that I have no debt and I do not live beyond my means. In that sense, I am NOT a liar.
Can you say the same my friend?
Lord Acton would remind us "It is not that a particular class is unfit to rule. It is that no class is fit to rule."
Humans aren't meant to be ruled. Flawed human beings aren't mean to rule over other humans. It is not in our nature to do so. Humans screw up everything they touch because of the genetic flaw of greed. Greed governs everything a person does and it corrupts everything. Always.
Not all of us are greedy. If you look around, you will see that really only a small percentage and those are the ones ruling over us. The rest of us mostly just want decent income and housing; after that we just want to be left alone to pursue our dreams and raise our family. It's called the Middle Class.
That is a pretty harsh statement considering how many people have common sense and can clearly express their distress over the direction the country continues to lurch.
Not really, Ben, as it is showing right now how the Left still owns a majority of the public, at least at the local level. The American people have transitioned from being the world’s most industrious to a lackadaisical group of do-nothing gimmes.
This is what happens when a people are blessed with too much for too long. They become decadent, lazy, slothful, boastful, arrogant, lovers of themselves. They do not know how to sacrifice. They have no gratitude. They have no sense of purpose. The love of themselves turns into hatred of themselves and their positions of circumstance and they turn to personal "causes" and act out to "make a difference."
What we need as a nation is a harsh war, one that knocks people back into reality, one that takes from them their security and their trinkets and brings them back to humility. A severe economic depression will do the same thing. I believe one or the other is coming.
Right, it is a measure of the success of the Left over the last fifty years.
Can you imagine America if we had an honest media that took its job seriously and held ALL government officials' feet to the fire? The media is like the US Congress. A colossal and abject failure. It needs to be destroyed all the way down to its seeded roots, thrown into the fire and its failures preached as required learning for all students for the next millennium.
Instead these fuckers continue to spew their lies and get paid handsomely to do so by US companies who continue to advertise their rubbish in their programs because we the people still tune in and watch this tripe.
And round and round we go. Fascinating.
Congress isn't a failure, they have engineered things for themselves to get paid whether they win or lose. :-D
They haven't failed themselves....true. They have definitely and absolutely failed the American people they are supposed to be representing.
Fascinating and fatal.
All mainstream media is run by C I A. This has been true since probably 1945.
And of course, John, you are NOT one of the 95% of fools that believe them.
You are very special. Self-appointed, eh? LOL.
"Can you imagine putting up with what he has FOR TEN FUCKING YEARS?!"
I cannot, Danimal28. Human beings have their limits. Even DJT. Human beings aren't designed to handle massive fame and popularity and enormous wealth. Our souls can only handle so much stimulus before they are damaged. Hence the reason so many wealthy and famous people are sexual deviants, drug addicts, in an out of relationships and generally just miserly and miserable people.
I have long admired DJT and I still do. I appreciate the efforts he has made when he hasn't had any financial reason to do so. He's sacrificed much even if he hasn't been as effective as he could have been. I believe he's finished. His tough facade is starting to crack and it is starting to show. Even he has his limits.
Amen
Ditto.
So true. I wouldn't want to be in his shoes.
Supporting and funding genocide... importing Chinese students to spy on us? Attacking great conservatives Massie, MTG and Paul? Kissing Bourla's ass in the Oval, when millions have died from his death-jabs (that Trump still pushes)? Serving Israel first? Ignoring the murder of Charlie Kirk?
Thanks for speaking up, Danimal. There’s too much Trump bashing from our side. We’ve had a decade to observe who he is, and that’s not going to change. If James really felt the need to bash our supposed side, he could have wrote a steaming piece on the bi-partisan legislation that just passed the house, an attempt to overturn Trumps EO on federal employee unions. There’s probably enough Republican senators to pass it in the senate if the filibuster wasn’t still in place. Crazy that we have friends like these . . .
Lots of people taking that 30 pieces of silver.
I hear you Danimal. But some of it is overboard especially when criticizing people who supported most of his policies and during impeachment as enemies (Massie, MTG).
And I hear you, sir. Remember who is funding Massie. Do some research on Jeff Yass. Globalist. And I think the globalist Koch brothers are paying MTG.
I like Massie and MTG, but the criminal aspects of Sodom on Potomac affect every one of those folks at some point.
Trump is upsetting trillions of dollars back into your pocket and THEY can't have that. Remember that they unleashed a flu virus and illegally kicked him out when you had the highest purchasing power of your life. For once.
“Can you imagine putting up with what he has FOR TEN FUCKING YEARS?!”
The result of the last 10 years for Trump is:
1. that there is no politician in America with a larger and more devoted group of supporters
2. that he is now by far the most influential figure in the GOP
3. that he has gained likely billions in wealth in connection with public office through crypto, foreign deals
Or: more admiration, more power, more money.
This isn’t something he had to suffer through, or even put up with.
Did you forget that the mainstream media has been viciously attacking him constantly ever since he came down the elevator? The lies are beyond insane and many people bought those lies and do not like or trust Trump as a result. His family has also taken a lot of hits and there have been numerous attempts to completely destroy him and some of his family members.
“Did you forget that the mainstream media has been viciously attacking him constantly ever since he came down the elevator?”
Did you notice that all this does is give him energy?
We have had him in our politics for 10 years, and people still don’t know the basics of the shtick. This is a person who thrives off of adversarial interactions.
So… no, I didn’t forget about any of that… but all of what I said is also true. Notice that what you said and what I said don’t contradict each other.
The man has gained fame, money, and power as a result of his political ventures. He’s not suffering.
And thus since he thrives on it, he needs it and looks for it as in his despicable betrayal of Marjorie Taylor Green.
Israel is very lucky to have such a great advocate. The new Cyrus indeed.
Thank you, this is something I wish we were all struggling to understand better and keep more in mind. Carroll Quigley wrote his histories, his pupil Bill Clinton had a career which testified to the truth of everything Quigley wrote about the Anglo-American establishment, and yet for 99% of people it's like these admissions never happened.
Of course. Ever since the open rise of the intelligence agencies in the 50s & 60s (though the manipulation goes further back) it's been important to take media stories & cultural narratives w/ a grain of salt. We have to ask: whose purpose does this serve? Why am I seeing this, how does this actually affect my life (and often these things do, just in ugly slow-boil ways)? Now with AI, who knows? We're all Pontius Pilate asking, What is Truth? It's very unpleasant. My guess is we simply cannot trust versions of reality forced upon us, and have to rely on our own hearts & minds, as well as discussion with others who are seeking Truth in good faith.
This may help clarify just who’s behind the unison MSM propaganda psyop we are subjected to daily:
https://newsletter.amuseonx.com/p/the-invisible-war-room-behind-every?publication_id=840660&utm_campaign=email-post-title&r=kyfzz&utm_medium=email
I want to know who is behind all of the woke advertising. Doesn't matter who the company is or what is being advertised, every ad always has the same type of people in it. Black people who appear to be young, wealthy and happy, usually a bi-racial couple. Or, a woman who is clearly in charge of her pussified white husband. Rarely do we se an ad from any company with a solid, white dude, as the protagonist. Someone is behind all of this woke, anti-white advertising. Would like to know who it is. Probably the same as the MSM?
Excellent. Thanks for sharing this.
“What is truth?” Ask What is humanity? What is our purpose? To sit in easy chairs watching robots and AI do everything? AI is the most unsettling situation for humanity since the Resurrection of Jesus.
Boy do I agree with that statement. What is even more unsettling is how many people are embracing this AI without even the slightest understanding that this AI is going to put them on the bread lines.
Capitalism. Go with the winners. Invest and be part of the victory. Be a pall bearer at your own funeral.
Agreed, John...now ask ChatGPT what the meaning of life is.
The Crucifixion Was a Hoax. And here’s the Proof!

Calm down Dennis, everything in that video has been known to scholars since - always, at the 54 years I've been at it. Many possibilities exist.
One small observation: ancient peoples understood their world in ways we cannot grasp. More about myth, less about history. Timeless ideas dominated their thinking, quite different than the bean counters we call historians. They didn't think of historical people as better or more real than mythical ones
Also, what we call historians, are, for the most part, 'court historians'. You don't get a professorship at Oxford or its equivalent by presenting non-approved narratives. Or rave reviews for your books. And the next generation of 'historians' get what they're taught by the last lot.
You found the body? I'm impressed. No Easter next year. I've studied religions most of my 70 years. My opinion in short: the results are inconclusive. I recoil from those who issue metaphysical pronouncements as if they sat on the throne of God. Let's all admit we don't know shit; the universe is still a mystery (to me, at least).
The older I get the more I realize just how little I truly KNOW. What I used to hold as a firm belief has become more flexible over my years.
Turn your back on as the youth have. The only thing real now is lived experience and to the extent our individual experiences are the same is what is true.
We need to do three things: stop importing third world migrants that hate us, and deport those already here; reduce the size and scope of government dramatically; reduce/eliminate the deficit. If these three items are not corrected, everything will be for naught.
Exactly what Trump is being blocked from doing.
Trump is doing one of those things. On immigration, the man is a star.
The other two things? Not so much. However, when it comes to reducing the scope of government and reducing the debt, he can only do so much. It really is the Congress's responsibility to reduce the debt as they are the ones who authorize and spend the money. They could also reduce the scope of government quickly but the refuse to do so. They won't willingly correct these things. They will eventually be FORCED to correct these things.
Agreed. I hope we can make it to eventually.
How about, $500 billion in welfare fraud to Somalians. Enough to abolish the income tax for 90% of Americans. Instead it goes to fraud.
Notice how the media is successfully trying to squelch this corruption. It is nation wide at the state level. I wonder how many of those supposed GOP legislators in Indiana are on the corruption payroll.
That explains why I see so many Somali immigrants living in houses bigger than mine and driving around in cars newer than mine. I always wondered how a Somali immigrant with no English skills can afford a $650,000 home and a $50,000 Acura SUV.
Go sit down and a have a nice cup of coffee my friend.
You are getting all wound up this morning.
And keeping banging on about what is wrong, is not going to help.
Don't let this stuff live rent free in your head.
Huh?
Hugh?
Or you'll send your daughter to kick his balls? LOL
He's threatened that a few times. Haven't seen his daughters though. I'm glad, they sound like they are some pretty mean dudettes. Wouldn't want to meet them in a dark alley.
Apparently, Dennis considers not liking abortion to be a personal attack on his abortion providing daughter. It's sad to see nice rich liberals become "Lord of the Flies" if they encounter pushback. They live in their own echo chamber of delusional virtue
You have no idea whether my two daughters do abortions.
You POS!
Probably they can "afford" it because of some kind of government subsidy or guarantee for the mortgage. And maybe the bank didn't dare refuse them a loan, fearing it would be sued for discrimination against a member of a protected class.
Spot on. I think Trump is starting to get a little over his skis. He needs to focus more on the Homeland now. Let Russia and Europe have it out and be done with it - Ukraine is G O N E, gone!
The best thing Trump could do is walk away from Ukraine and NATO, never look back.
If only......
And Israel.
It is a puzzle. If Ukraine was going to be gone, it would be. People here forget, in their MIC zeal, that Ukraine elected a Russian sympathetic president, and it was a Biden led NATO effort to get him bounced. East Ukraine is Russian, much like the SW USA is Mexican, immigration, and they were invited in. Hmm, Biden again?
Russia has shown restraint over the years of encroachment by NATO, allowing 14 countries, most on their border to form The worthless NATO.
Europe screwed itself by cutting off Russian energy. Let them freeze.
I remember hoping the MIC bullshit about Russia would stop in 1991. It didn’t. It was the Democratic Party that started up what is happening now. Biden, Obama and HRC.
IMHO, one of the greatest lies of the 21st century is that Putin wants to take East Europe. Ask yourself, why would he want them back? The second greatest lie is that Europe gives one shit about NATO. To them, NATO is a USA financed organization, the real reason that Putin has not invaded East Europe is that he just does not want put up with European bullshit, he will allow the USA to have that unfortunate task.
At one point under Bill Clinton there was talk of allowing Russia into NATO which was quickly knee capped.
Russia is not the enemy China is and I wish we would see the common ground more than the regional power trying to have their own form of a Monroe doctrine.
China is an economic adversary, not an enemy.
They are less hegemonic by far than the US has been... and BRICS may soon leave us in the dust... especially when the dollar collapses...(happening fast now)...
This is a public service announcement:
This poster posted from China.
That is all.
LOL!! You damned moron.
Research and listen to fine patriots Col Macgregor, Jeffry Sachs, Prof Merscheimer, Col Wilkerson, etc.
You might not continue to be such a uninformed eunuch.
Truth hurts ehh comrade?
Yep, Ben needs to start hanging around with a better class of losers.
Globalists are the enemy of us all
Russians are white. They are us. They speak a different language but they are of our race. All of the white race should be united as we are a major MINORITY on the global scale and we are facing extinction.
If only. The Russian Federation is comprised of many nations, most of them non-White. White Russians may still be the majority, but not for long. The Muslims will soon overtake them. The cure is National Socialism, which Putin hates with an ignorant passion.
We are first, then China will set its sights on the Eastern 1/2 of Russia for the oil, and Nat. Gas. Not to mention the women and fresh water.
And he would never allow the Muslims to push him around and infect his Society like Germany, France, UK etc. Just like the terrorists in Beslan - he handily deals with the BS they start. If I remember, he took the scum bodies, wrapped them in pig skin and buried them in unmarked graves.
That is of course true, but why?
Trump has allowed the Presidency to go to his head....He needs to stop all this foreign troublemaking and focus on his domestic problems....
Agreed 100%. We did not elect Trump to fix problems in Nigeria. . .
Fixing some of those problems helps stop the drain here.
No, helping Nigeria does not help America, but it is a great way to make sure the Republicans lose the mid-terms. No one voted for Trump to make Nigeria great again. . .
If Nigeria becomes a better less corrupt country, they stop trying to flee here and maybe just maybe they begin to go after the all the scammers in that country.
They might also begin to resist the real global enemy China is becoming.
The Nigerians who flee here are just as corrupt as those who stay in Nigeria. The only difference is, the migrants want to be where opportunities for profitable corruption are greater in a richer (pro tempore) US.
Uh huh. So instead of focusing on draining the swamp in DC--you know, the things he campaigned on--he should continue to break those campaign promises and work to help Africa. Yeah, makes perfect sense.
No he should be doing that as well.
This is not an either or situation.
How much of that swamp has ties to these criminal rackets in Nigeria, Ukraine, Venezuela, Somalia, Afghanistan and countries like that?
Domestic problems? An out of control tech elite that is preparing to destroy the American economy. Stopping that should be no. 1.
I alternate between getting sick of Trump's ballyhoo and admiring it for its effect of changing the conversation and calling attention to something that might be important.
The vast majority of legislators, bureaucrats, and the judiciary are aligned against the people. The people are taxed heavily, without much in the way of representation. Government spends what isn't there, printing money, deflating wealth of the middle class. Justice is at least two-tiered.
Government has reached "escape velocity." Trump arrived a little too late.
THAT looks more and more likely.
That is the absolute truth, Skenny. That is exactly why we are boned. How does the middle class overcome this?
Don't know.
Yup.
My husband has been saying for a long while and daily, it all seems like a stage play.
I honestly don't believe anything anymore and find myself pulling further and further away from engaging with anything one might call news or journalism. Everything seems to be opinion minus or plus details that make it make sense.
It's exhausting and perhaps that's the EXACT point. It does seem to have driven a very large component of our country crazy.
Trying to discern the reason seems futile except to say Jesus said there'd be days like this.
It's all been done purposely to confuse us so that we no longer know which end is up, so that we don't know who to trust. Hell, there are so many 'actors' onstage now that we don't really know which ones are the real ogs or not. The deception and ability to do this is beyond belief. Most aren't aware that this is even possible. What's done routinely in Hollyweird is being done on the big stage right in front of us.
I have come to believe that it is a "stage play", that the democrats have been perfecting for years, and that the Trump administration and advisors are in the process of mastering it, and out-gaming the opposition.
Like yourself, I eagerly await the day when all news commentary is presented with an honest objective assessment.
A great piece with a sprinkle of disgust with Trump’s focus, or lack thereof, that I made similar observations about this past week. At least 50 times I heard that “we were dead but now we’re the hottest country”, and “only I could have done this, blah, blah,…” as he holds his heads of agencies captive for hours. There are so many things the public wants to see corrected and it seems as though the patronizing of the AG is over the top when we have yet to see justice for the real big criminals, and for the whole conspiracy that began with Clinton, Comey, and Brennan, that is seemingly going unpunished. All we get is that a few more illegals were caught and arrested. Yippee! That’s what makes me question my lifelong commitment of belief in Donald Trump and his crew. How many more are growing discouraged?
It appears that justice is in the works: https://www.kunstler.com/p/can-anyone-believe-anything/comment/187093681
... but as you and JHK point out in regard to Trump's conduct, it would be beneficial if Trump set the example.
My concern is that the Trump team does not comprehend the Mamdani movement. https://www.kunstler.com/p/when-they-say-democracy-they-dont/comment/186386596
Thank you, IAN2364, I truly appreciated the Kitmo News show with Gerald Celente expressing his concern for the economy as we move into the summer of 2026. There was just so much of interest and, as he follows the trends, it’s highly probable that what (and why) he predicts will undoubtedly become a reality. I was glad to share this with others. Actually, the AI explosion may be the trigger for socialism everywhere. Won’t those WEF globalists be happy?!
My 2 cents regarding a socialistic format for life is that leadership can make all the difference in the world, and I am starting to wonder if people like Walz and Harris are basically evil people: https://www.kunstler.com/p/can-anyone-believe-anything/comment/187462803
Indications are that Trump's New Golden Age would be an environment where the population complies with the rule of law, and where a moral group of people treated each other with dignity and respect. In order for this to happen, Trump would need to make accommodations for the issues relating to unemployment and those lacking talent and opportunity. I would like to believe that a format for life could be structured to accommodate this group, but believe that leadership would make the difference between an accommodative or repressive society (consider the Japanese society, where it is my impression that citizens are at peace with their standing in life, and are highly respectful of each other, as well as their environment).
More trade schools and a focus on improving infrastructure and standards of living.
Yes, that is all part of Trump's New Golden Age.
If his administration can survive to implement his agenda, I think he can salvage a terrible situation. I can envision where all the citizens of the countries of the Americas benefit from Trump's New Golden Age.

Google AI Overview
In 2025, trade schools and vocational training are a central component of Donald Trump's "Golden Age" economic vision. His administration has prioritized a shift away from "college-for-all" toward a system that elevates skilled trades as a prestigious and primary path to high-wage careers.
Trade schools and related vocational initiatives are integrated into this vision through several key 2025 policy actions:
1. The "Talent Strategy" for the Golden Age
In August 2025, the Departments of Labor, Education, and Commerce released "America’s Talent Strategy: Building the Workforce for the Golden Age". This blueprint frames trade education as essential for:
Reindustrialization: Preparing workers for "Made in America" manufacturing and construction roles.
AI Readiness: Integrating AI literacy into vocational programs to ensure workers can lead in new technological frontiers.
Economic Independence: Reducing reliance on foreign labor by rapidly upskilling domestic workers.
2. Executive Order 14278
Issued in April 2025, this order focuses on "Preparing Americans for High-Paying Skilled Trade Jobs of the Future". It directs federal agencies to:
Expand Apprenticeships: Set a target of over 1 million active registered apprenticeships per year.
Overhaul Funding: Review and redirect federal workforce programs toward industry-led, "earn-and-learn" models.
Prioritize Modern Skills: Focus training on critical sectors like energy, cybersecurity, and advanced manufacturing.
3. Structural Reorganization
The administration has actively shifted the federal oversight of career and technical education (CTE):
Department Realignment: Some CTE programs previously under the Department of Education were moved to the Department of Labor to better align education with immediate labor market needs.
Workforce Pell Grants: The 2025 strategy supports expanding Pell Grant eligibility to include short-term job training at trade schools, allowing students to use federal funds for non-degree vocational certifications.
4. "Trade Schools" as Settlement Terms
In a notable 2025 development, the administration announced a deal with Harvard University where the institution would reportedly pay $500 million and operate a series of trade schools focusing on AI and engine technology in exchange for the restoration of federal grants.
"the whole conspiracy that began with Clinton, Comey, and Brennan, that is seemingly going unpunished." Do you actually believe that Trump ever planned to hold any of these people accountable? In hindsight, it looks like a bunch of false campaign promises, nothing more.
"Perhaps the strain is getting to him."
Absolutely the strain is getting to him. Trump is, afterall, a human being. I can't imagine being subject to the ridicule, hate, derision and lies that he is subjected to on constant minute by minute basis. You have half the population that absolutely hate the man and all that he does and stands for. You have half the population that look at Mr. Trump as if he is America's savior even though Mr. Trump, as the Chief Executive of the USA has no authority to make law. He can only sign new law or veto it. Too many people are looking to him to resolve every problem facing America when it is the colossal joke, the US Congress, who they should be pointing fingers at.
Yes, the strain is getting to him. He's almost 80 years old. He should sitting on a private beach on his private island in the Caribbean surrounded by naked women as he sits in a beach chair sipping margaritas instead of putting up with the bull shit factory that is the United States of America.
I believe he's done. The Republican pussies will lose the Senate and the House in the mid terms and Trump will spend the final two years of his presidency fighting off impeachment charges.....again. God damned Democrats. Fucking Republicans. I hate them all. The fact that Americans still have faith in this system is mind boggling to me.
I am very concerned that he has allowed certain figures to still be walking the streets. Your knowledge of the layers of corruption and seditious crime is beyond comprehension.
Yet President has not made an example of ANYONE! It’s infuriating that he has not arrested the entire Soros family, the Gates family, the Fauci family. The process of arresting them will scare the shit out of many others. The entire family is the medieval I am speaking of.
He has not arrested the 7 people who told the armed forces to have a mutiny against him and then take over the government! If he has reasons why he can’t do that then maybe he should get rid of the reasons.
Look it’s quite well known that evil destroys evil. That is because evil has two sides. There is good evil meaning it is empowered to destroy a greater evil but for a good reason. Example being WW2. America used the powers of evil to stop the European front and the Asian front. We didn’t go there and negotiate some treaty. We destroyed everything and everyone in our way.
That must be the attitude now.
Trump seems to just negotiate. Maybe that is really all he is capable of. I hope not. Negotiations are garbage if Fauci people are murdering nations legally. Fauci should be publicly executed. All must be executed immediately. Will that make him look bad. Maybe not. Because unless he accomplishes that kind of medieval we are not going to see peace health and prosperity at all in this country.
100%
Jim, these folks are trying to kill him for Christ sake!
To hell with decorum. Pedal to the metal!
Everything you say about the democrats is true, but the Tech-Bro Trumpeteers are equally evil, pushing Captain Orange to issue edicts overriding states' attempt to put the brakes on the hallucinating AI juggernaut and silencing American citizens who speak ill of that rogue nation in the mideast that gleefully deploys their Orwellian gestapo tech to scrub Gaza clean of indigenous human life. And what's with this Venezuela craziness, blowing up people by remote control in small boat off the coast of a country 2,500 miles from our shores? And are we pirates now, seizing foreign oil tankers enroute to tiny countries we've been fucking over for more than 65 years? If Mr. Trump wants to go after real drug dealers, I hear Pfizer has several well-funded operations right here in the good ol' USA.
No, we are going after the center of criminal election stealing all over the world as-well as the drug cartels. Venezuela is a major focus of corruption that assists China and Russia in the western hemisphere. The Monroe Doctrine is high on his priorities as well as election fraud even as he brings down some of the sources of wealth (the flawless drug boats) to shut off the money flow. It’s a major operation and you’re hearing only a small part of what’s happening.
Yes, the Smartmatic was headquartered in Venezuela.
This post could have just been titled, “Satan’s Minions.” It’s frightening how many billionaires (who should be all for capitalism, you would think) are financing Marxist, anarchist causes to destabilize the very society that gave them their fortunes. Why would they do that? I see no good reason other than that they have been infected with the satanic mind virus that tells them to “destroy, destroy, destroy.” It seems literally everyone is against us; even people like Elon Musk who are for us are ultimately against us, urging that we must merge with the machines to be still competitive. Rather than mere meat sacks, we’ll be the upgraded “Human 2.0” with technologically and/or genetically enhanced features. One could despair if it weren’t for the knowledge that God, the King of the Universe, is on our side.
God is not going to help you. Or me. It is up to us.
God is always there for His faithful. Sometimes He actively intervenes, sometimes He gives us the strength to persevere in times of trouble.
Capitalism means competition. Why would those who have won in the past want to allow that now? Risk getting unseated or overwhelmed by a new coalition of go getters? Thus Capitalism destroys itself. Competition becomes a sin in the eyes of the ruling clique.
Thus muse on the madness of conflating this twisted philosophy with conservatism.
God, the King of the Universe, only exists in your head, Shannara?
If he did exist, why has he done nothing for 5,000+ years?
A philosophical argument for God and a ham sandwich combined are worth slightly less than a ham sandwich. You can have as many philosophical arguments for “God” as you like, it doesn't change the fact that there's no evidence that there is one.
There's plenty of evidence, but it resides in the consciousness of those who have had personal, spiritual experience. You don't find evidence for God by looking for it in the material world like detectives in TV crime programs.
There is plenty of evidence in the material world, though. Miracles happen every day.
Personal experience is not a valid method to determine if something is true.
If it were, we would have no way of determining whose experience reflects reality. Believers cannot rationally reason that personal experiences are the pathway to truth ~ because they don’t accept other people’s experiences as proof of the claims they make with whom they disagree.
Dennis, you are mixing up two different kinds of truth.
For anything in the material world perceived by the senses, personal experience can't be cited as truth. That patch of water ahead on the highway turns out to be an optical illusion. Hearing a voice in the running shower water is another illusion.
But the experience of God, however partial, reported by mystics and those touched by grace is not simply another piece of evidence among others in the world of the senses. It is of a different quality, another level of reality. Mystics have always had trouble describing it because words used for normal everyday reality are inadequate for spiritual experience.
The transcendent quality of an individual's perception is only proof for that person. It can't be shared in its essence with someone else verbally or logically. But for anyone blessed by even a touch of the Absolute, no further proof is needed.
Sorry Vegan,
I don't believe there is any other reality other than in the material world.
"Mystics"...pfffft.
"those touched by grace" ~ Prove it! Betcha can't.
"the experience of God, however partial"~ more male bovine excrement!
"Spiritual experience"......wtf? Nonsense.
"The transcendent quality of an individual's perception" ~ GMAFB
God does not exist!
Take care.
You accept that "this" (all of it) is really happening, right? So if and when you leave you body in conscious astral projection, you will believe that too - no matter who or how many think you are deluded.
I will let Him know that He doesn’t exist. Pretty sure He’ll get a good laugh out of it.
