“Perhaps history is teaching us that today’s popular leaders like Donald Trump and Marine Le Pen are not the people’s last chance. They are the globalist’s last chance.” — Kurt Schlichter
Yeah Dubya The Dolt. Voted for him 2x. Lesser of two evils. Both he & his old man look really bad in the rear view mirror.
That said reportedly everything @ Epstein Island was videotaped; that could be the crux right there. If Roberts is on video in a compromised position it could very well compromise his position & force his resignation. He’s had a bad odor from the beginning, Dubya just seemed to pull “Chief Justice” out of the air & stick Roberts in it. Maybe we would have been better off with Harriet Myers. Roberts is Dubya’s David Souter.
Dubya was a Deep State president, like his dad. Government, central power first. His nominee has proven to be the same thing. Anything that promotes central control, good. RINO - Establishment GOP - Left of center - country club set - Dem stooge, all good words and DC is chock full of them.
The last president that fought back against the Deep State was JFK. We know what happened to him. Ronnie was okay, first term, but as Bill O’Reilly postulates in “Killing Reagan”, being shot changed the president and # 2 was not so great, with increasing taxes, Iran Gate. Ascendency of Bush1, all supporting the Feds.
Ronnie got the message after he was shot. His mantra was "politics is the art of the possible" and he realized that going too hard against the DS would get him Kennedy'd. 2nd term was all Bush which explains the awfulness. The nation wasn't ready for the DS flush at the time - there was a tight stranglehold on the narrative. Things are different now, more people red-pilled every day, we now know who the bad guys are and what they've been up to.
Hiya, Ben. Got a solution for ya. My plug in hybrid RAV4 uses about $40 dollars in gas every two months and about $30 in electricity per month. We drive 13000 miles per year or so.
Yesterday’s gas prices are gone, and if you believe in TLE, it is going to get worse and never better.
John ---with respect to Dubya and his dad--- my thoughts exactly. Like you, I believe the alternative presented was so much worse. Can you imagine either Prez algore or Lurch? Just as bad as Xiden or maybe worse.
The lesser of two evils is still evil. I am amazed at how tolerant we as a society have become of this. "yeah, this candidate stinks but he doesn't stink as bad as the other guy." Says Joe Conservative. Problem is, the dude still stinks.
Now that you thought about it, what feeling do you have at the thought of slogging through the muck to attain political office?
I have thought about it here locally as I am sick of leftist bullshit but the amount of insanity on display and what it would take to clean up the mess would probably get me assassinated.
Americans [Looney Left AND "Conservatives"] refuse to vote for decent people when they run for office - The great Ron Paul never had a chance. Ditto Pat Buchanan. I pray that Ramaswamy shines in Ohio and then goes medieval on all comers in '28.
Yes, and ACB was nominated by Trump. Two fake conservatives who both hate Trump. When these current cases wind their way to the Supreme Court, don't be surprised if Trump keeps losing on 5-4 votes.
Said this innumerable times: GOP POTUS’s need to stop drawing from the well of the “Ivy League” “elite” schools; they’ve all been copted by the left. You think any judge is going to risk being kicked off the DC cocktail party circuit for a controversial decision? Picking judges from these places is stupidity on steroids. Go outside the norm; moreover no SC justice is required to be a lawyer. They should pick small businessmen, entrepreneurs, I.e. regular folks instead of the born-with-the- silver-spoon-already-in-the-mouth “elite” class. In the end that’s what it is - “elitism”; “we went to better, more respected institutions so we know better than you.”
Correction: they’re supposed to “understand the law” but their history proves otherwise. Businessmen/entrepreneurs- generally, no one is infallible - operate on more of a common sense platform. When you have an SC pick who openly admits she “cannot define what a woman is” then what the hell use is a piece of stamped paper from a “credentialed” institution?
The "law" doesn't matter anymore and hasn't mattered for 75 years. It's pure and brutal power. If you're not willing to take the bull by the horns and put a bang stick to the side of its head, you're just lying to us all.
This Mike Davis (Article III Project) & Senator Chuck Grassley thing stinks. They were a big part of pushing these Trump-hating judges. They are as fake as $3 bills. Obviously Grassley is brilliant at moving things at a glacier's pace. He was feeding Patrick Byrne lines years ago. Lots of dust and then nothing but more damage.
If Providence intervened on behalf of President Trump on July 13, 2024 in Butler, Pennsylvania, then it is beyond cavil that it was for a very good reason. Despite the obstacles he faces (and they are considerable), it would seem that he will prevail against those who seek his political and physical demise. More to the point; that DJT shall fulfill the task(s) that Providence has sought him out for. His will be done.
Mr. Kunstler: There are no certainties in this life, therefore, I cannot state that I know this to be a certainty. However, one can observe and deduce. All that I know is that God made the plants for their simplicity, animals for their innocence, and man to serve him wittily in the tangle of his mind. This may very well be an instance where the creator has a course of action in mind for the nation and has chosen an individual to fulfil his will. I don't know this for certain, but one can at least be open to the possibility. One can have faith.
Or, perhaps, the people have become so corrupted and godless in their hearts that God has given them over to reap the rewards of their actions. Seems to me that wickedness and corruption is having its way with the good and decent these days.
A truly righteous people would not tolerate a wicked government. The fact that the people have allowed their government to become such as it is today speaks volumes to the condition of the general American citizen.
We as a people have become immoral, amoral, anti-God, anti-religion, lovers of ourselves, greedy, selfish, and slaves to our debt. Hey, this sounds just like our own government doesn't it?
God's plan, if he/she has a plan, may be to let humanity stumble through and resolve the mess they themselves have created.
"A truly righteous people" voted - for liars, cheats and traitors. Without reading their minds, we can't know if a politician is worth his salt until he acts. We waited for them to prove themselves, waited for the "white hats" to effect a correction, and chose the only path that does not involve immediate civil war or lynchings: vote for different people. About 60-70% of us voted for better people. That is the contract we've all agreed to. We have something that separates us from France (Le Pen), Brazil (Bolsinaro), Romania (Georgescu), Germany (AfD): a Constitution like no other. It's what is keeping those "truly righteous people" from acting out. It may come to war, but we're yelling as loudly we can, and somebody has acquired the authority to listen and DO something about it. Laura Loomer talked with Trump about what she knew, and he fired 3 NSC people. But there is another aspect of "truly righteous people" that nobody mentions. Humanity are a spiritual beings, above ALL else, for without it, that body you inhabit is nothing but rotting meat. And there is a confluence of positive thought, prayer, intent on an unseen, unrecognized, unacknowledged level that influences everything. It's part of "being awake," and it appears to be working. Think positively. That doesn't mean begging "God" for an outcome, but thinking, encouraging, applauding the good in every way possible. It does matter, and it does make a difference. Why, we have a manifestation of it today: Klaus Schwab quit! What gets more positive than that?
I see that in Hollywood. Melissa Gilbert wrote something on X. She said that oh we were woke in the days of Little House on the Prairie on t.v. She just doesn't get it. They cannot tell a story. They start out moralizing because they are the best people in the world. I hope I don't think that about myself! Go look at the self righteous yard sign. IN this house we believe, meaning those that don't are inferior. If you go to a church, they recite a creed. The creed is for the person reciting it, the creed is not for other people. Hollywood will go bankrupt. I know the mind of Blind and they cannot see now.
Christians believe that God has planned everything, and that includes planning for some people to go to hell.
There's nothing you can do about it, since that would go against God's plan. Praying is asking him to change his plan. Telling God he has it all wrong and you have a better idea!
The fact is Christians don't think they're smart enough to live their lives without some sort of divine intervention.
Why would anyone who is intelligent and educated get duped into believing 1st Century/Bronze Age superstition?
Myths based on ignorant men "making shit up" in order to try and understand the natural world.
Without one shred of verifiable, concrete data or experiment-based evidence of a single supernatural "God" or event?
We should stop wasting our time trying to please the supernatural and concentrate on improving the welfare of human beings.
Faith is the most important. So is knowledge wisdom and understanding. All of these qualities followed by works pleases God. Trump is fulfilling this role to make America great again in a morally profound way.
He will prevail as well as those who have faith that God is really in charge but we humans still have the power of choice given to those who wisely choose life.
We're blessed with tape worms, plague, cancer, leprosy, dengue fever, malaria, and mosquitoes that spread diseases. The brain-eating amoeba is a special gift from a creator if you believe in a Creator.
Faith is the deliberate refusal to think critically and the glorification of wilful ignorance that follows. Religion is the permission slip to set aside truthful thought.
"There are no certainties in this life, therefore, I cannot state that I know this to be a certainty."
That applies to absolutely everything that you, or any human, "knows" about anything. Therefore, it also applies to any claim whatsoever about God. It's all belief, and that "fact" is inescapable.
Re: "This may very well be an instance where the creator has a course of action in mind for the nation and has chosen an individual to fill his will."
The infamous Egyptian Pharaoh of the book of Exodus comes to mind. Trump epitomizes the collective greed of society today and one would have to be blind to not see how he has been energized by everything that is thrown at him. The biblical God "hardens" (another good translation is "strengthens") what's already there to make sure that as H.L. Menken has said, "the people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard."
Sometimes doing nothing has a massive impact. Ignoring demons is immensely effective. Praying keeps them away. We can only take care of ourselves and our communities, to a lesser extent. That's not doing nothing.
Zelensky, galaxies far from a great mind, is being manipulated by the EU and the UK, based on their delusional and diabolical motives, to keep throwing wrenches into the ceasefire/peace efforts, convincing him via promises to have his his back based upon pure fairy dust.
The combination of their certifiably insane TDS, and their utter hubris have brought us to the brink of WWIII, and mutually assured destruction.
Ironically, it has only been Putin’s personal resistance to pulling the nuclear trigger that has kept us from crossing that Rubicon.
"God gave man free choice. People's individual choices, and mankind's cumulative choices are why things are the way they are."
Exactly. This principle tells me two things, Socrates.
1. God cannot violate his own laws and therefore cannot get involved which means we humans are on our own to fix the mess our actions and inactions have created.
2. God is not all powerful and cannot intervene. If God intervenes God breaks his own law of human free choice and free will and if he breaks his own law he becomes a liar. If God becomes a liar he loses his authority which comes from his honor and the honor of his creations.
Either way, I don't believe God is going to save us from our wickedness. We made this mess. We need to fix it. We fix it by first fixing ourselves, inwardly. Once we as a people fix ourselves inwardly and turn ourselves back to righteous principles and righteous living, everything else will fall right in line. I truly believe this.
Yes, there seems to be different factions of globalists striving for dominance. Trump is part of the Neo-Con/Israeli faction - and they are terrible warmongers.
"Faith" is the excuse people give when they don't have a good reason to believe something. If they had a good reason, they would offer that as justification for their belief, not "faith".
Faith is the deliberate refusal to think critically and the glorification of wilful ignorance that follows. Religion is the permission slip to set aside truthful thought.
EVERYTHING happens according to God's PLAN Christians will say.
But when SOMETHING tragic happens, the Christian says God gives us FREE WILL.
The age-old trick of constantly moving the goalposts.
Or the cop-out: God moves in mysterious ways his wonders to perform
Hmmm, “The Devil is real”? Could it be he is the cumulative of Man’s evil side, that he represents the “evil” side of our nature, inside our minds and souls, as God represents the “good” side? Is the battle between good and evil within ourselves?
Let’s give Trump a break relative to his being a peacemaker. I think Putin dropped a turd on his idea of what it would take to make a deal to stop the Biden stupidity. IMHO, Putin is using the slowdown from Trump to his advantage and will continue to push his land grab in East Ukraine until stopped. Watch Odessa.
It's amazing how many people understand this that I run into lately! So heartening. I found out a woman I play pickleball with and hike with is a conservative Christian. She didn't advertise, so I didn't know. Once we started chatting about the trans agenda, I knew! A kindred soul. Hallelujah!
Some are claiming Iran already has a nuke or two. They had a lot of help from President Clinton and of course the Shiaphile Obama. One will note every action taken by Obama favored Shiites over any other sect. Curiously favorable agreements made by "towering intellects" like Lurch Kerry surely have not soothed an observer's concerns about the intentions of the Islamic Republic.
Unlike the bufoons preceding him, Trump goes for the win. If he moves against Iran it will be overwhelming and decisive, one and done, but only if he believes there is going to be a nuclear attack from them. None of this boots on the ground and nation building crap. "...and there ain't gonna be no wine tasting after."
I have no idea why some people expect Trump to loudly telegraph his true intentions so enemies can form effective strategies. I recommend Badlands Media show Geopolitics with Ghost for a full analysis of what Trump, Putin, MBS, et al, are quietly up to in the Middle East. The current wars are very connected & will likely both be resolved in a single deal, possibly hosted by Qatar. It very much appears that the deals (including Putin's completion of denazification this summer) have already been made & we're just watching the pre-arranged theatre play out. Right now it seems we're waiting out Netanyahu's demise as his nation teeters on the brink of civil war. And Trump just cranked up the heat on Israel's economy by making them the only country to not receive tariff relief in return for dropping theirs. Oh, & while everyone was distracted by bombing Yemen, Trump very quietly approved Egypt's plan to rebuild Gaza without displacing the Palestinians.
But hey, gloom & doom all you want. Just don't ask me for sources as I am no one's secretary! Go ask Grok to find them for you. Also, I'm no longer in the business of pursuasion, as I can't help anyone anyway if they can't simply sense that the forces of darkness are on the ropes. I can pray for y'all, that's about it.
Iran has demonstrated they can shoot ineffective drones and a couple of rockets which did little damage thanks to the Iron dome.
Iran is toothless which is why they run mouth and do very little.
They lost most of their air defense, lost several missile factories and a few other items I can't remember, and Israeli aircraft did not so much as get a scratch.
It took months for Iranians to actually comment one way or the other which round about proves they got ass handed to them.
Iran is fucked if they don't start making nice and quit with proxy war bullshit.
China and Russia won't do anything for IRAN BUT BLUSTER.
Russia is bleeding out in Ukraine and China does not want direct military confrontation until they go after Tawain.
The Shiite Sunni schism is easily leveraged back into a hot war.
It will happen sooner or later without any prodding they literally HATE each other over grievances that are six hundred years old.
Iran is responsible for massive bloodshed - what the hell are you talking about? First, starting in their own country. They terrorize and murder many in Iran. They also arm and instigate other militants in Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, Judea and Samaria and to bring about death and destruction to many.
As for the USS Liberty, that was a fog of war incident. Israel never intended to and has never attacked Americans. But Iranians have killed Americans deliberately as in the Beirut bombing of the US Marine barracks, which they actively supported. They often talk about destroying the Great Satan. Read the Hamas Charter, Iran's affiliate, and see what the end game is for Islamic jihad, but you refuse to open your eyes or ears.
Rachel Corrie was a troublemaker who put herself deliberately into harm's way where she had absolutely no business and got herself killed.
Get behind me, Satan, with your lying poisonous tongue.
Iran appears eager for the confrontation so who is really pushing for World War 3?
It is not normal for a world leaders to send private letters specifically asking other countries leaders to come to the peace table to hash stuff out if they are intent on another war.
Not like McCain who famously and poorly sang BOMB BOMB BOMB iRAaaaaaaaaAN after suggesting they send Iran an Airmail message it is interesting that I can no longer find the word Iran in this terrible song.
Yeah, I agree with you. Trump, again, has underestimated the power of the Leftists to stop his agenda, especially the judicial side. He needs SCOTUS to stop the overstepping by these Leftist stooges. If he does not get this stopped, we are going to see a re-play of #1. Populist MAGA will be overwhelmed by the Leftist power base that is still in power. Number one is the media, that is overwhelmingly Far-Left, and is the “programmer” of the mind of Joe Average. If they convince the country that Trump is BAD, and 2026 sees a Dem comeback in the House, #2 will be a race to see how fast Trump’s MAGA can be destroyed with ongoing impeachments.
As mentioned here, it probably all depends on John Roberts and his side kick, Amy Barrett.
Since ACB has become Roberts' sidekick, what are the chances that she'll stray from him and vote with the 4 conservative Justices? From the way she looked away from Trump when he greeted her after his SOTU speech, it's not hard to see where her loyalties lie. Super lawyer Robert Barnes warned Trump not to pick ACB after Justice Ginsburg died. Seems he's been proven right.
The Iranian regime, following in the footsteps of Muhammad, has been attacking the US from its beginning. Dealing with them now, belated as it is, isn't WW3 - it's putting down a lawbreaking troublemaker. Your chicken little shtick should be retired.
I am more concerned about Israel's nuclear capabilities (that it has never disclosed) as was John F. Kennedy just before he was murdered in 1963. Iran's desire to defend itself with nukes is logical given that their expansionist neighbor has them. Iranian nuclear capability would create a balance of power in the Middle East. Or the alternative - just let Israel and its co-dependent friend with big bombs and big boats wipe out every perceived threat in the region until it owns everything.
You probably already know this history, but before Ronnie died, he recorded a version of Merle Haggard's Honky Tonk Night Time Man. It appeared on Street Survivors. He also re-wrote the lyrics and recorded a version called Jacksonville Kid. It wasn't released until 2008 on a bonus disc:
Also, Ronnie had plans to collaborate with Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings after the Street Survivors tour ended. What a shame that never happened. The interesting part is that Waylon hated Merle, but somehow Ronnie was able to get them to agree to work together.
Merle would have been the natural fourth member of The Highwaymen, instead of Kris Kristofferson, who didn't have the chops to be in that group, but Waylon wouldn't allow it. Waylon thought Kristofferson was a "fucking communist," but he hated Merle more. Hahaha.
Yep, that's a favorite for sure. When I was in school in Gainesville, none of us ever had a pot to piss in, and couldn't afford to do much, so we'd go bass fishing on the weekends. Mostly to Lochloosa, Cross Creek or the Ocklawaha River, and this song always stuck in my head then.
Ronnie was a prophet, and I knew then that the beauty of those places wouldn't last, so we appreciated them even more. Even then we could see
- the concrete a' slowly creepin' - and that was right at 40 years ago.
You've heard of JJ Grey I'm sure, another Florida Boy from the outskirts of Jax. You'll like this one, if you haven't heard it. Passionate about our area.
Doesn't look good for Trump with Roberts at the helm, not to mention the failure of Amy Coney Barrett, who has largely been a disappointment to constitutionalism.
ACB disappointed yet again, siding with the 3 progressive women in a 5-4 ruling affirming Trump's using of the enemy invasion act to deport criminal illegal aliens. WTF is ACB thinking?
Roberts is never going to protect your constitutional rights folks. He proved that in the horrible ruling on Obamacare and he is the leaker of the Dobbs ruling. He is a snake in the grass unwilling to come out he has to have cover so he has to get one of the newer justices Trump appointed to go with him If the Eisen connections are correct then this further perverts him.
Look Judge Roberts and his wife back in 2000, I believe shirked Irish Law. They adopted 2 children at which time Irish Law said that no one but Irish citizens could adopt Irish children 🤔? Whose palms did they grease back then ?
This Seedy. Corruption. Must be. Erratically ELIMINATED FROM OUR COURTS , OUR CONGRESS + OUR GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS ! DRASTIC MEASURES MUST BE IMPLEMENTED NOW !
Taking on the power of the Courts (lawfare) is long overdue. Trump was on the right track and had the people (at least a slim majority) behind him. But now he's stepped all over himself with these ridiculous and poorly thought-out tariffs. Now he's hemorrhaging support and will have to use up all his political capital trying to defend them. Economist Jeffrey Sachs, on Judge Nap's podcast yesterday, spelled out how misguided these tariffs are. Unless Trump starts a war with Iran, which he might do to deflect from his tariff mistake, they will soon derail the Trump Train. As Gerald Celente is fond of saying: "When all else fails they take you to war."
The tariffs are the only way to deal with our enemies, frenemies and supposed allies who have been ripping off the country for a couple of generations. Trump will restart US industry with the “I do not give a damn” corporations returning to the USA. It also gives him a tool to manipulate world affairs with. There are going to be many Leftist power wags around the world that are going to scream over this. We already see it in the Stock Market. If I have to pay 10% more, I won’t complain, to twist the Liberal economic cojones of the world, that is just fine.
Putting Tariffs on foreign countries who have been ripping off America ever since the DEMOCRATIC NAFTA DEAL is the right thing to do ! When u hire someone to do work for u do u pay them or charge them ? Foreign Countries have been charging us far too long with no respect for us Now. Trump. Has. Said ENOUGH IS ENOUGH ! Jeff Sachsen is a buffoon who cries “ unfair “ anytime America ever got a deal from a foreign country , he’s all about “ give it away , America can afford it !”
Unless a Demoncrap injustice, the wheels of justice grind exceeingly slow, so do not become anxious over the lack of countervailing lawsuits against the leftist creeps. You can be sure that Elon is having skilled trial lawyers prepare suits against the Soros and Hoffman, et al, leftist or marxist creeps. The Department of Justice (now no longer Injustice), is very busy on several fronts, but you can be assured they have a handle on the internal corruption of even Supreme Court Justices if it exists. None of these pillars of destruction and acrimony are beyond the law no matter their position. Kash and Dan are a terrible twosome for the leftist loons, and they are hard on the cases.
Today’s offering is yet another example of JHK’s superb grasp of events, their potential impact on the ability of this country to function as initially intended, and his ability to succinctly lay out the possible machinations working in the background.
It blows my mind how many of our supposed “leaders”, once you turn over the rocks, are nothing but low life sleazes whom we are to honor and to whom we should defer (where has the MSM been for the last many years?). Most of them I would not let in my house, yet amazingly, we willingly give them the power of life and death over us because of their “credentials” and/or offices held. And as Kunstler astutely points out, it is not just a U S phenomenon but world wide in scope. Most telling, however, is the commonality of attitudes and actions undertaken by these self important “players” to ensure their grip on power is not compromised. It goes back to what we have been discussing ad infinitum, about the commonality of human attributes, endeavors and overall lack of character when it affects their “gravy train” financially, reputations or power. Education, codes of ethics and even possible sanctions often are not enough to corral those of questionable character regardless of field of endeavor. It seems, “What’s in it for me?”, is their “Golden Rule”and to which they will cling until their dying breaths! We are truly in for the fight of our lives if we really want to change the status quo.
Nice collective of sleuthing there, James! Bravo. I guess now that it's out in the open, and Trump has the power to do something about it, we may be in for a show starring the unctious Roberts. Loved seeing all the ties these elites have between them and, of course, I have no doubt that the Roberts on the Epstein log is the very same. I mean, it's not as if Epstein would invite just any old John Roberts, eh?
In the immortal words of Reiner Fuellmich (who is now sitting in a German prison for exposing the Covid Op crime against humanity), "Holy fucking shit!!!"
This is one of Kunstler's most important pieces (although I say that a lot).
The icing on the cake is, as always, JHK's brilliant turns of phrase. In this case:
"testosterone (the official hated hormone of the Left)."
"We have got to stop sending jobs overseas. It's pretty simple: If you're paying $12, $13, $14 an hour for factory workers and you can move your factory South of the border, pay a dollar an hour for labor, ... have no health care—that's the most expensive single element in making a car— have no environmental controls, no pollution controls and no retirement, and you don't care about anything but making money, there will be a giant sucking sound going south.
... when jobs come up from a dollar an hour to six dollars an hour, and ours go down to six dollars an hour, and then it's leveled again. But in the meantime, you've wrecked the country with these kinds of deals." Henry Ross Perot
CJ Roberts was nominated by George Bush. Enough said.
Yeah Dubya The Dolt. Voted for him 2x. Lesser of two evils. Both he & his old man look really bad in the rear view mirror.
That said reportedly everything @ Epstein Island was videotaped; that could be the crux right there. If Roberts is on video in a compromised position it could very well compromise his position & force his resignation. He’s had a bad odor from the beginning, Dubya just seemed to pull “Chief Justice” out of the air & stick Roberts in it. Maybe we would have been better off with Harriet Myers. Roberts is Dubya’s David Souter.
Dubya was a Deep State president, like his dad. Government, central power first. His nominee has proven to be the same thing. Anything that promotes central control, good. RINO - Establishment GOP - Left of center - country club set - Dem stooge, all good words and DC is chock full of them.
The last president that fought back against the Deep State was JFK. We know what happened to him. Ronnie was okay, first term, but as Bill O’Reilly postulates in “Killing Reagan”, being shot changed the president and # 2 was not so great, with increasing taxes, Iran Gate. Ascendency of Bush1, all supporting the Feds.
Bush senior was a New World Order flunkie.
Also probably helped orchestrate the JFK hit. He was there! Evil asshole.
And Bush Jr. was a controlled tool with very limited insight of anything justifying his rise to the presidency.
I have that book it's on my read list.
Ronnie was amazing first term second term was a mess.
I remember gas being .75 cents a gallon at a gas station on Kanan Dume road by the freeway.
Filled my Toyota Corona up for less than $10 bucks.
I miss the 80's while being chaotic it was not like now, now insanity rules the land.
Ronnie got the message after he was shot. His mantra was "politics is the art of the possible" and he realized that going too hard against the DS would get him Kennedy'd. 2nd term was all Bush which explains the awfulness. The nation wasn't ready for the DS flush at the time - there was a tight stranglehold on the narrative. Things are different now, more people red-pilled every day, we now know who the bad guys are and what they've been up to.
Hiya, Ben. Got a solution for ya. My plug in hybrid RAV4 uses about $40 dollars in gas every two months and about $30 in electricity per month. We drive 13000 miles per year or so.
Yesterday’s gas prices are gone, and if you believe in TLE, it is going to get worse and never better.
Insanity = Gimme state.
You drove a Toyota during the Reagan Administration? Were you a commie pinko back then?
That photo of Roberts cuddling with Ghislaine in the love seat looks very compromising to me. Guilt by association. Especially cuddling association.
That's enough evidence for me to convict him of conflicts of interest.
When does the investigation on the adoption of his 2 kids commence?
John ---with respect to Dubya and his dad--- my thoughts exactly. Like you, I believe the alternative presented was so much worse. Can you imagine either Prez algore or Lurch? Just as bad as Xiden or maybe worse.
The lesser of two evils is still evil. I am amazed at how tolerant we as a society have become of this. "yeah, this candidate stinks but he doesn't stink as bad as the other guy." Says Joe Conservative. Problem is, the dude still stinks.
Why do we Americans tolerate this?
Because only nuts seek politics and power.
Who is left?
Canker go run for office.
Now that you thought about it, what feeling do you have at the thought of slogging through the muck to attain political office?
I have thought about it here locally as I am sick of leftist bullshit but the amount of insanity on display and what it would take to clean up the mess would probably get me assassinated.
Americans [Looney Left AND "Conservatives"] refuse to vote for decent people when they run for office - The great Ron Paul never had a chance. Ditto Pat Buchanan. I pray that Ramaswamy shines in Ohio and then goes medieval on all comers in '28.
Uh ... Lurch and Dubya both refused to comment on the obvious conflict of interest that they both belonged to Yale's secret society Skull & Bones.
So, you proudly discern and choose the better of Lucifer and Satan?
There is something more evil than the Bush Family?
Doubts.
The Clintons of Course! The Other White meat.
How about the Kennedys. Papa Joe makes a deal with the Mafia to get his son elected president that probably backfired and got JFK killed.
See also: Bay of Pigs, Vietnam, Bobby investigated Sam Giardino, New York Mafia.
Well played.
LBJ was far more horrible and destructive.
Yes, and ACB was nominated by Trump. Two fake conservatives who both hate Trump. When these current cases wind their way to the Supreme Court, don't be surprised if Trump keeps losing on 5-4 votes.
Said this innumerable times: GOP POTUS’s need to stop drawing from the well of the “Ivy League” “elite” schools; they’ve all been copted by the left. You think any judge is going to risk being kicked off the DC cocktail party circuit for a controversial decision? Picking judges from these places is stupidity on steroids. Go outside the norm; moreover no SC justice is required to be a lawyer. They should pick small businessmen, entrepreneurs, I.e. regular folks instead of the born-with-the- silver-spoon-already-in-the-mouth “elite” class. In the end that’s what it is - “elitism”; “we went to better, more respected institutions so we know better than you.”
ACB is from Notre Dame.
No Professors!!! Those who can do. Those who can't teach.
ie: Hillary, Obama, ACB
What about ACB's "book deal." Sure wish I had time to look into that one but you all are way too interesting.
Very well said. If only anyone would listen to you.
Well if he can get Robert’s ass out, imagine a Matt Gaetz? Oh man! And then one of the dark females gets too loopy?
Thanks Dutch!
Note: That elitism is the exact same in America's attitude towards the rest of earth.
They pick lawyers because they understand the law or at least we hope they do.
Average layman not so much.
Correction: they’re supposed to “understand the law” but their history proves otherwise. Businessmen/entrepreneurs- generally, no one is infallible - operate on more of a common sense platform. When you have an SC pick who openly admits she “cannot define what a woman is” then what the hell use is a piece of stamped paper from a “credentialed” institution?
The "law" doesn't matter anymore and hasn't mattered for 75 years. It's pure and brutal power. If you're not willing to take the bull by the horns and put a bang stick to the side of its head, you're just lying to us all.
This Mike Davis (Article III Project) & Senator Chuck Grassley thing stinks. They were a big part of pushing these Trump-hating judges. They are as fake as $3 bills. Obviously Grassley is brilliant at moving things at a glacier's pace. He was feeding Patrick Byrne lines years ago. Lots of dust and then nothing but more damage.
It has to be Article 3 project judges from here on out, no more Federalist nonsense.
Yeah. Bush (R-CT)
I saw CJ Rehnquist as the same - a Darvon addicted tool of the Bushite globalists protecting the Deep State's "interests."
Oh, you mean George NWO Bush.
If Providence intervened on behalf of President Trump on July 13, 2024 in Butler, Pennsylvania, then it is beyond cavil that it was for a very good reason. Despite the obstacles he faces (and they are considerable), it would seem that he will prevail against those who seek his political and physical demise. More to the point; that DJT shall fulfill the task(s) that Providence has sought him out for. His will be done.
It's possible that you don't know that for sure.
Mr. Kunstler: There are no certainties in this life, therefore, I cannot state that I know this to be a certainty. However, one can observe and deduce. All that I know is that God made the plants for their simplicity, animals for their innocence, and man to serve him wittily in the tangle of his mind. This may very well be an instance where the creator has a course of action in mind for the nation and has chosen an individual to fulfil his will. I don't know this for certain, but one can at least be open to the possibility. One can have faith.
“One can have faith.”
Sure beats the alternative.
Faith is a tricky thing.
Or, perhaps, the people have become so corrupted and godless in their hearts that God has given them over to reap the rewards of their actions. Seems to me that wickedness and corruption is having its way with the good and decent these days.
A truly righteous people would not tolerate a wicked government. The fact that the people have allowed their government to become such as it is today speaks volumes to the condition of the general American citizen.
We as a people have become immoral, amoral, anti-God, anti-religion, lovers of ourselves, greedy, selfish, and slaves to our debt. Hey, this sounds just like our own government doesn't it?
God's plan, if he/she has a plan, may be to let humanity stumble through and resolve the mess they themselves have created.
"A truly righteous people" voted - for liars, cheats and traitors. Without reading their minds, we can't know if a politician is worth his salt until he acts. We waited for them to prove themselves, waited for the "white hats" to effect a correction, and chose the only path that does not involve immediate civil war or lynchings: vote for different people. About 60-70% of us voted for better people. That is the contract we've all agreed to. We have something that separates us from France (Le Pen), Brazil (Bolsinaro), Romania (Georgescu), Germany (AfD): a Constitution like no other. It's what is keeping those "truly righteous people" from acting out. It may come to war, but we're yelling as loudly we can, and somebody has acquired the authority to listen and DO something about it. Laura Loomer talked with Trump about what she knew, and he fired 3 NSC people. But there is another aspect of "truly righteous people" that nobody mentions. Humanity are a spiritual beings, above ALL else, for without it, that body you inhabit is nothing but rotting meat. And there is a confluence of positive thought, prayer, intent on an unseen, unrecognized, unacknowledged level that influences everything. It's part of "being awake," and it appears to be working. Think positively. That doesn't mean begging "God" for an outcome, but thinking, encouraging, applauding the good in every way possible. It does matter, and it does make a difference. Why, we have a manifestation of it today: Klaus Schwab quit! What gets more positive than that?
I see that in Hollywood. Melissa Gilbert wrote something on X. She said that oh we were woke in the days of Little House on the Prairie on t.v. She just doesn't get it. They cannot tell a story. They start out moralizing because they are the best people in the world. I hope I don't think that about myself! Go look at the self righteous yard sign. IN this house we believe, meaning those that don't are inferior. If you go to a church, they recite a creed. The creed is for the person reciting it, the creed is not for other people. Hollywood will go bankrupt. I know the mind of Blind and they cannot see now.
Christians believe that God has planned everything, and that includes planning for some people to go to hell.
There's nothing you can do about it, since that would go against God's plan. Praying is asking him to change his plan. Telling God he has it all wrong and you have a better idea!
The fact is Christians don't think they're smart enough to live their lives without some sort of divine intervention.
Why would anyone who is intelligent and educated get duped into believing 1st Century/Bronze Age superstition?
Myths based on ignorant men "making shit up" in order to try and understand the natural world.
Without one shred of verifiable, concrete data or experiment-based evidence of a single supernatural "God" or event?
We should stop wasting our time trying to please the supernatural and concentrate on improving the welfare of human beings.
Faith is the most important. So is knowledge wisdom and understanding. All of these qualities followed by works pleases God. Trump is fulfilling this role to make America great again in a morally profound way.
He will prevail as well as those who have faith that God is really in charge but we humans still have the power of choice given to those who wisely choose life.
We're blessed with tape worms, plague, cancer, leprosy, dengue fever, malaria, and mosquitoes that spread diseases. The brain-eating amoeba is a special gift from a creator if you believe in a Creator.
Faith is the deliberate refusal to think critically and the glorification of wilful ignorance that follows. Religion is the permission slip to set aside truthful thought.
"There are no certainties in this life, therefore, I cannot state that I know this to be a certainty."
That applies to absolutely everything that you, or any human, "knows" about anything. Therefore, it also applies to any claim whatsoever about God. It's all belief, and that "fact" is inescapable.
"There are no certainties in this life"
death
But if God informs you, take it to the bank. He is Real, you know.
Re: "This may very well be an instance where the creator has a course of action in mind for the nation and has chosen an individual to fill his will."
The infamous Egyptian Pharaoh of the book of Exodus comes to mind. Trump epitomizes the collective greed of society today and one would have to be blind to not see how he has been energized by everything that is thrown at him. The biblical God "hardens" (another good translation is "strengthens") what's already there to make sure that as H.L. Menken has said, "the people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard."
That attitude allows Dispensationalist Christians to do nothing.
Sometimes doing nothing has a massive impact. Ignoring demons is immensely effective. Praying keeps them away. We can only take care of ourselves and our communities, to a lesser extent. That's not doing nothing.
Zelensky, galaxies far from a great mind, is being manipulated by the EU and the UK, based on their delusional and diabolical motives, to keep throwing wrenches into the ceasefire/peace efforts, convincing him via promises to have his his back based upon pure fairy dust.
The combination of their certifiably insane TDS, and their utter hubris have brought us to the brink of WWIII, and mutually assured destruction.
Ironically, it has only been Putin’s personal resistance to pulling the nuclear trigger that has kept us from crossing that Rubicon.
"God gave man free choice. People's individual choices, and mankind's cumulative choices are why things are the way they are."
Exactly. This principle tells me two things, Socrates.
1. God cannot violate his own laws and therefore cannot get involved which means we humans are on our own to fix the mess our actions and inactions have created.
2. God is not all powerful and cannot intervene. If God intervenes God breaks his own law of human free choice and free will and if he breaks his own law he becomes a liar. If God becomes a liar he loses his authority which comes from his honor and the honor of his creations.
Either way, I don't believe God is going to save us from our wickedness. We made this mess. We need to fix it. We fix it by first fixing ourselves, inwardly. Once we as a people fix ourselves inwardly and turn ourselves back to righteous principles and righteous living, everything else will fall right in line. I truly believe this.
Yes, there seems to be different factions of globalists striving for dominance. Trump is part of the Neo-Con/Israeli faction - and they are terrible warmongers.
"Faith" is the excuse people give when they don't have a good reason to believe something. If they had a good reason, they would offer that as justification for their belief, not "faith".
Faith is the deliberate refusal to think critically and the glorification of wilful ignorance that follows. Religion is the permission slip to set aside truthful thought.
EVERYTHING happens according to God's PLAN Christians will say.
But when SOMETHING tragic happens, the Christian says God gives us FREE WILL.
The age-old trick of constantly moving the goalposts.
Or the cop-out: God moves in mysterious ways his wonders to perform
Hmmm, “The Devil is real”? Could it be he is the cumulative of Man’s evil side, that he represents the “evil” side of our nature, inside our minds and souls, as God represents the “good” side? Is the battle between good and evil within ourselves?
Let’s give Trump a break relative to his being a peacemaker. I think Putin dropped a turd on his idea of what it would take to make a deal to stop the Biden stupidity. IMHO, Putin is using the slowdown from Trump to his advantage and will continue to push his land grab in East Ukraine until stopped. Watch Odessa.
GOD'S will is going to be done. Like it or not. HE has already won this war. The final battles are now being fought.
It's amazing how many people understand this that I run into lately! So heartening. I found out a woman I play pickleball with and hike with is a conservative Christian. She didn't advertise, so I didn't know. Once we started chatting about the trans agenda, I knew! A kindred soul. Hallelujah!
Faith!
I don't see that his post asserts absolute surety. It only postulates a reasonable scenario described using words such as "if" and "seem."
I’m so glad you pointed this out. We need reminding sometimes that keeping the faith in times like these is incredibly difficult but oh so important.
Besides, it's Trump's DNA to fight.
Please, God.
Amen!!’
There were multiple near misses of President Lincoln, one by Booth, until one finally took him down.
Some are claiming Iran already has a nuke or two. They had a lot of help from President Clinton and of course the Shiaphile Obama. One will note every action taken by Obama favored Shiites over any other sect. Curiously favorable agreements made by "towering intellects" like Lurch Kerry surely have not soothed an observer's concerns about the intentions of the Islamic Republic.
Unlike the bufoons preceding him, Trump goes for the win. If he moves against Iran it will be overwhelming and decisive, one and done, but only if he believes there is going to be a nuclear attack from them. None of this boots on the ground and nation building crap. "...and there ain't gonna be no wine tasting after."
The entire 1400-year history of Islam should not reassure any "infidel".
I have no idea why some people expect Trump to loudly telegraph his true intentions so enemies can form effective strategies. I recommend Badlands Media show Geopolitics with Ghost for a full analysis of what Trump, Putin, MBS, et al, are quietly up to in the Middle East. The current wars are very connected & will likely both be resolved in a single deal, possibly hosted by Qatar. It very much appears that the deals (including Putin's completion of denazification this summer) have already been made & we're just watching the pre-arranged theatre play out. Right now it seems we're waiting out Netanyahu's demise as his nation teeters on the brink of civil war. And Trump just cranked up the heat on Israel's economy by making them the only country to not receive tariff relief in return for dropping theirs. Oh, & while everyone was distracted by bombing Yemen, Trump very quietly approved Egypt's plan to rebuild Gaza without displacing the Palestinians.
But hey, gloom & doom all you want. Just don't ask me for sources as I am no one's secretary! Go ask Grok to find them for you. Also, I'm no longer in the business of pursuasion, as I can't help anyone anyway if they can't simply sense that the forces of darkness are on the ropes. I can pray for y'all, that's about it.
Yes and think of all those dead Jews.
Win win in your book.
Thanks, but we've heard all this from the ineffectual Iran appeasement faction too many times already.
Iran has demonstrated they can shoot ineffective drones and a couple of rockets which did little damage thanks to the Iron dome.
Iran is toothless which is why they run mouth and do very little.
They lost most of their air defense, lost several missile factories and a few other items I can't remember, and Israeli aircraft did not so much as get a scratch.
It took months for Iranians to actually comment one way or the other which round about proves they got ass handed to them.
Iran is fucked if they don't start making nice and quit with proxy war bullshit.
China and Russia won't do anything for IRAN BUT BLUSTER.
Russia is bleeding out in Ukraine and China does not want direct military confrontation until they go after Tawain.
The Shiite Sunni schism is easily leveraged back into a hot war.
It will happen sooner or later without any prodding they literally HATE each other over grievances that are six hundred years old.
Iran is responsible for massive bloodshed - what the hell are you talking about? First, starting in their own country. They terrorize and murder many in Iran. They also arm and instigate other militants in Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, Judea and Samaria and to bring about death and destruction to many.
As for the USS Liberty, that was a fog of war incident. Israel never intended to and has never attacked Americans. But Iranians have killed Americans deliberately as in the Beirut bombing of the US Marine barracks, which they actively supported. They often talk about destroying the Great Satan. Read the Hamas Charter, Iran's affiliate, and see what the end game is for Islamic jihad, but you refuse to open your eyes or ears.
Rachel Corrie was a troublemaker who put herself deliberately into harm's way where she had absolutely no business and got herself killed.
Get behind me, Satan, with your lying poisonous tongue.
Iran appears eager for the confrontation so who is really pushing for World War 3?
It is not normal for a world leaders to send private letters specifically asking other countries leaders to come to the peace table to hash stuff out if they are intent on another war.
Not like McCain who famously and poorly sang BOMB BOMB BOMB iRAaaaaaaaaAN after suggesting they send Iran an Airmail message it is interesting that I can no longer find the word Iran in this terrible song.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7s5pT3Rris
Iran is far more comfortable being the turd in the punchbowl with proxy wars where they don't get their dainty little hands dirty.
Israel needs the wars and Trump needs money from Israel's deep pocket managers.
Israel needs wars like you need cancer. Maybe you both do in a larger sense, but you're going to have to do something about it if you can.
No not really but thanks for the opinion.
Its the middle east after all which is always at war.
All one need do is make fun of the "prophet" of Islam and walla war.
Also, for reference Trump leveled tariffs on Israel and Israel caved and very fast.
Yeah, I agree with you. Trump, again, has underestimated the power of the Leftists to stop his agenda, especially the judicial side. He needs SCOTUS to stop the overstepping by these Leftist stooges. If he does not get this stopped, we are going to see a re-play of #1. Populist MAGA will be overwhelmed by the Leftist power base that is still in power. Number one is the media, that is overwhelmingly Far-Left, and is the “programmer” of the mind of Joe Average. If they convince the country that Trump is BAD, and 2026 sees a Dem comeback in the House, #2 will be a race to see how fast Trump’s MAGA can be destroyed with ongoing impeachments.
As mentioned here, it probably all depends on John Roberts and his side kick, Amy Barrett.
Dems + RINOS = Control?
Since ACB has become Roberts' sidekick, what are the chances that she'll stray from him and vote with the 4 conservative Justices? From the way she looked away from Trump when he greeted her after his SOTU speech, it's not hard to see where her loyalties lie. Super lawyer Robert Barnes warned Trump not to pick ACB after Justice Ginsburg died. Seems he's been proven right.
Her loyalties lie in Haiti.
The Iranian regime, following in the footsteps of Muhammad, has been attacking the US from its beginning. Dealing with them now, belated as it is, isn't WW3 - it's putting down a lawbreaking troublemaker. Your chicken little shtick should be retired.
Then— your strategy is to stand by and wait until Iran nukes Israel and us?
I am more concerned about Israel's nuclear capabilities (that it has never disclosed) as was John F. Kennedy just before he was murdered in 1963. Iran's desire to defend itself with nukes is logical given that their expansionist neighbor has them. Iranian nuclear capability would create a balance of power in the Middle East. Or the alternative - just let Israel and its co-dependent friend with big bombs and big boats wipe out every perceived threat in the region until it owns everything.
Not enough substance to base WWIII on…
Since when do megalomaniacs need "substance"?
Wake me up when they start hanging the judiciary traitors.
Thank you. Enough with the "humiliation ritual" congressional hearings, e.g., circus acts.
You're right, Mary. Until something of consequence happens, if ever, it's all theater. That or we really are living in a simulation.
Ron,
You probably already know this history, but before Ronnie died, he recorded a version of Merle Haggard's Honky Tonk Night Time Man. It appeared on Street Survivors. He also re-wrote the lyrics and recorded a version called Jacksonville Kid. It wasn't released until 2008 on a bonus disc:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0xVt9155qQ
Also, Ronnie had plans to collaborate with Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings after the Street Survivors tour ended. What a shame that never happened. The interesting part is that Waylon hated Merle, but somehow Ronnie was able to get them to agree to work together.
Merle would have been the natural fourth member of The Highwaymen, instead of Kris Kristofferson, who didn't have the chops to be in that group, but Waylon wouldn't allow it. Waylon thought Kristofferson was a "fucking communist," but he hated Merle more. Hahaha.
Ron, you probably already know this, but it might be the most beautiful thing Ronnie ever wrote:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmWhq4cXhcc
Thanks, RD.
Yep, that's a favorite for sure. When I was in school in Gainesville, none of us ever had a pot to piss in, and couldn't afford to do much, so we'd go bass fishing on the weekends. Mostly to Lochloosa, Cross Creek or the Ocklawaha River, and this song always stuck in my head then.
Ronnie was a prophet, and I knew then that the beauty of those places wouldn't last, so we appreciated them even more. Even then we could see
- the concrete a' slowly creepin' - and that was right at 40 years ago.
You've heard of JJ Grey I'm sure, another Florida Boy from the outskirts of Jax. You'll like this one, if you haven't heard it. Passionate about our area.

Doesn't look good for Trump with Roberts at the helm, not to mention the failure of Amy Coney Barrett, who has largely been a disappointment to constitutionalism.
No kidding ACB has been a huge disappointment.
ACB disappointed yet again, siding with the 3 progressive women in a 5-4 ruling affirming Trump's using of the enemy invasion act to deport criminal illegal aliens. WTF is ACB thinking?
Is she really anti-abortion or was that just a pose, like Melania's Catholicism?
Did Schumer’s and Antifa Scare Tactics have their desired effect?
Would they on you?
Me personally I would be going to jail if they showed up at my house.
Could this be the reason Robert’s helped get The unconstitutional Obama Care Act passed by, with his helpful, this is what they meant to say ruling?
Yep.
The good ole "Potomac Two Step" ! Just like John Brennan's elevation to the Director of said Agency...
https://canadafreepress.com/article/jbjohn-brennana-company-man
Roberts is never going to protect your constitutional rights folks. He proved that in the horrible ruling on Obamacare and he is the leaker of the Dobbs ruling. He is a snake in the grass unwilling to come out he has to have cover so he has to get one of the newer justices Trump appointed to go with him If the Eisen connections are correct then this further perverts him.
Why doesn't Ms. Bondi find the JE videotapes of him and give him the boot?
Because the CIA has the tapes if they haven’t already been destroyed
Someone else who has copies, hidden of course, is John Mark Dougan who is self exiled in Russia. If CIA has them can't they be subpoenaed?
Look Judge Roberts and his wife back in 2000, I believe shirked Irish Law. They adopted 2 children at which time Irish Law said that no one but Irish citizens could adopt Irish children 🤔? Whose palms did they grease back then ?
Big O, as I understand it.
In 2000? He was just a glint in the CIA's eye at that time.
Their favorite pastime....
Jeffrey Epstein from what I've read.
This Seedy. Corruption. Must be. Erratically ELIMINATED FROM OUR COURTS , OUR CONGRESS + OUR GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS ! DRASTIC MEASURES MUST BE IMPLEMENTED NOW !
Taking on the power of the Courts (lawfare) is long overdue. Trump was on the right track and had the people (at least a slim majority) behind him. But now he's stepped all over himself with these ridiculous and poorly thought-out tariffs. Now he's hemorrhaging support and will have to use up all his political capital trying to defend them. Economist Jeffrey Sachs, on Judge Nap's podcast yesterday, spelled out how misguided these tariffs are. Unless Trump starts a war with Iran, which he might do to deflect from his tariff mistake, they will soon derail the Trump Train. As Gerald Celente is fond of saying: "When all else fails they take you to war."
The tariffs are the only way to deal with our enemies, frenemies and supposed allies who have been ripping off the country for a couple of generations. Trump will restart US industry with the “I do not give a damn” corporations returning to the USA. It also gives him a tool to manipulate world affairs with. There are going to be many Leftist power wags around the world that are going to scream over this. We already see it in the Stock Market. If I have to pay 10% more, I won’t complain, to twist the Liberal economic cojones of the world, that is just fine.
Too much too fast, perhaps. Too much chemo will kill the patient along with cancer.
Perhaps, but sometimes the shock treatment is needed just to get everyone’s attention.
Putting Tariffs on foreign countries who have been ripping off America ever since the DEMOCRATIC NAFTA DEAL is the right thing to do ! When u hire someone to do work for u do u pay them or charge them ? Foreign Countries have been charging us far too long with no respect for us Now. Trump. Has. Said ENOUGH IS ENOUGH ! Jeff Sachsen is a buffoon who cries “ unfair “ anytime America ever got a deal from a foreign country , he’s all about “ give it away , America can afford it !”
Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive...Sir Walter Scott
Excuse me while I fly my flag upside down...
Ditto me
Judge Alito, is that you? I thought you were impeached for that along with Justice Thomas…WAPO told me so. 😉
Unless a Demoncrap injustice, the wheels of justice grind exceeingly slow, so do not become anxious over the lack of countervailing lawsuits against the leftist creeps. You can be sure that Elon is having skilled trial lawyers prepare suits against the Soros and Hoffman, et al, leftist or marxist creeps. The Department of Justice (now no longer Injustice), is very busy on several fronts, but you can be assured they have a handle on the internal corruption of even Supreme Court Justices if it exists. None of these pillars of destruction and acrimony are beyond the law no matter their position. Kash and Dan are a terrible twosome for the leftist loons, and they are hard on the cases.
I hope so but I will believe it when they start indicting and hauling these assholes to court in chains if need be.
Yup!! 👍
Today’s offering is yet another example of JHK’s superb grasp of events, their potential impact on the ability of this country to function as initially intended, and his ability to succinctly lay out the possible machinations working in the background.
this is disappointing. Sadly, this is not surprising news. Politics is ugly and it is like a club.
After a while those chosen become more and more the same
Politics is a big club, and you & I ain't members.
True statement and worse over time they become that which they despise.
It blows my mind how many of our supposed “leaders”, once you turn over the rocks, are nothing but low life sleazes whom we are to honor and to whom we should defer (where has the MSM been for the last many years?). Most of them I would not let in my house, yet amazingly, we willingly give them the power of life and death over us because of their “credentials” and/or offices held. And as Kunstler astutely points out, it is not just a U S phenomenon but world wide in scope. Most telling, however, is the commonality of attitudes and actions undertaken by these self important “players” to ensure their grip on power is not compromised. It goes back to what we have been discussing ad infinitum, about the commonality of human attributes, endeavors and overall lack of character when it affects their “gravy train” financially, reputations or power. Education, codes of ethics and even possible sanctions often are not enough to corral those of questionable character regardless of field of endeavor. It seems, “What’s in it for me?”, is their “Golden Rule”and to which they will cling until their dying breaths! We are truly in for the fight of our lives if we really want to change the status quo.
Nice collective of sleuthing there, James! Bravo. I guess now that it's out in the open, and Trump has the power to do something about it, we may be in for a show starring the unctious Roberts. Loved seeing all the ties these elites have between them and, of course, I have no doubt that the Roberts on the Epstein log is the very same. I mean, it's not as if Epstein would invite just any old John Roberts, eh?
Patiently waiting for more shoes to drop.
In the immortal words of Reiner Fuellmich (who is now sitting in a German prison for exposing the Covid Op crime against humanity), "Holy fucking shit!!!"
This is one of Kunstler's most important pieces (although I say that a lot).
The icing on the cake is, as always, JHK's brilliant turns of phrase. In this case:
"testosterone (the official hated hormone of the Left)."
ZING!!
Hear that GIANT Sucking Sound?
"We have got to stop sending jobs overseas. It's pretty simple: If you're paying $12, $13, $14 an hour for factory workers and you can move your factory South of the border, pay a dollar an hour for labor, ... have no health care—that's the most expensive single element in making a car— have no environmental controls, no pollution controls and no retirement, and you don't care about anything but making money, there will be a giant sucking sound going south.
... when jobs come up from a dollar an hour to six dollars an hour, and ours go down to six dollars an hour, and then it's leveled again. But in the meantime, you've wrecked the country with these kinds of deals." Henry Ross Perot
Ross Perot was 100% correct and how do you turn that around?
One way is to make those cheap labor products more expensive for people to buy so its cheaper to buy products made in your own country.
This is also good for not having to ship products across the world on giant fuel sucking ships.
