Perspective: It's Foreign Policy

 Not sure we can buy this in its entirety, but the author makes a good case against Bill Buckley's Interventionism.

After a short discussion of Murray Rothbard's disdain for interventionism:

 ...Rothbard alleged that the modus operandi of fusionism and especially National Review was to excommunicate the non-interventionist right from the mainstream of American conservatism. Little has changed. It appears that today’s attempted Buckleyite and neoconservative excommunications are less because of bigotry or conspiracism, but more because of foreign policy. ...

Hmmmm.

Buckley dissed John Flynn for Flynn's dislike of interventionism.  Then:

 ...National Review also soon began to enforce an orthodoxy about American-Israeli relations. In an article in the November 1956 edition, defending America against the accusation that segregation would reflect on the nation internationally, Guy Ponce de Leon included a line that caught the eye of the University of Chicago’s Leo Strauss: “Even the Jews, themselves the victims of the most notorious racial discrimination of modern times, did not hesitate to create the first racist state in history.”

Strauss sent NR Editor Willmoore Kendall a letter defending the Jewish state as an exemplar of conservative principles, despite its politics at the time being dominated by Labor Zionists. National Review never allowed severe criticism of the state of Israel to grace its pages again. (James Burnham would argue at times that Middle East policy should not be oriented around it, but nobody was able to tell Burnham off.)...

Whaddya know?  Israel!  Next,:

... the excommunication of the John Birch Society is cited as the shining moment of Buckley’s career. There, we are told, conservatism excised the antisemites and the conspiracy cranks. Never mind that Ludwig von Mises was on the Editorial Board of the Society’s publication, American Opinion, and would defend Welch to Buckley. ...

Welch had the gall to campaign against the VietNam war.  So....

 ...Burnham himself, who had held off from the first round of attacks against the John Birch Society, dedicated his column––Third World War––to attacking Welch for his position on Vietnam. The mastermind behind National Review’s foreign policy had never been a fan of Goldwater, always being more of a Rockefeller Republican. But the John Birch Society’s new stand against the Vietnam War (“Get US out!” their publications and billboards cried) bothered Burnham: "Its stand on Vietnam confirms, not for the first time, that any American who seriously wants to contribute to his country’s security and well-being and to oppose Communism will have to stay clear of the JBS.”...

(We concede that Welch was a slightly conspiracy theorist.  But opposition to the VietNam war was not 'daft' at all; nor was it un-principled.)

... The magazine’s interventionist line was not limited to Vietnam. Later, the Manhattan Twelve—the alliance of Buckley, Burnham, Meyer, and other fusionist hawks—revoked National Review’s support for President Nixon. Their contention was that Nixon had opened talks with Communist China and was thus insufficiently hawkish. (Nixon’s failed price controls would come after the Manhattan Twelve issued their documents.) Skepticism of American involvement with Israel met similar punishment. Buckley’s rambling monograph In Search of Antisemitism would give ground for the media and neoconservatives to attack Pat Buchanan for his criticism of the Israel lobby in the United States. Even if one holds that Buckley did not intend to excommunicate Buchanan, he certainly laid the groundwork for the neoconservatives to finish the job. National Review’s “Unpatriotic Conservatives” condemned those members of the right who were skeptical of the American war in Iraq....

Well.........NR is near-death, if not already dead.  They oppose JDVance because he dared speak ill of Israel's policies.  And it is clear that the American public is sick to death of the Perma-War.

Maybe NON-intervention will win the day soon, as it had done from 1776 through about the time of TR and then, catastrophically, Wilson, Roosevelt, Ike, JFK/LBJ, and the Blob Headed By Bushies.

Let us pray. 

Josh Kaul Sues So That All Aliens Get Benefits

 Josh Kaul, Wisconsin's very own Pillsbury Doughboy, joined with 20 other Hard-Left AG's to sue Trump.

Why?

To ensure that all aliens get free food and healthcare subsidies.

You remember that the Hard Left (all Democrats) screeched that their shutdown was only about US citizens getting benefits.  It was not.

 ...After months of Democrats asserting that "illegal" non-citizens don't receive government subsidies, Oregon is suing the Trump administration over changes to the nation’s food assistance program, arguing that new federal guidance unlawfully blocks certain groups of "legal" immigrants from accessing food aid.  When Democrats mention "legal immigrants" they are referring to all asylum seekers....

... In the lawsuit, Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield and the other Democratic attorneys general said the USDA memo goes further than what Congress approved and effectively blocks many lawful permanent residents from the SNAP program even though they qualify under the law.  Those include refugees, asylum seekers and people admitted under humanitarian programs once they obtain a green card and meet the program’s income and residency rules.

Their definition of "legal" non-citizens, however, is irrelevant.  The federal government has broad authority to determine who is here legally and who gets access to federal subsidies including SNAP....

Well, it IS 'relevant', but not because it is correct.

 ...Progressives exploit subsidies as a way to lure migrants to the US and buy their votes once they become naturalized.  The Democrat agenda is clearly to upend the demographics of the country in their favor.  Why would native born Americans allow their money to be used against them as a means to steal their country from them?...

IOW, it is another phase of the Hard-Left's PowerGrab scheme.

To recap:  First, Kaul and his ilk claimed that 'no benefits will flow to non-citizens.'  Then--when the Feds determined that 'non-citizens' actually meant 'non-citizens'-- Kaul and his pasty-faced Lefty pals sued so that non-citizens will continue to get benefits.

Tell Josh to go to Hell next fall. 

"Burn Bag" Goodies To Be Made Public

 No wonder Patel said that Comey is not out of the woods.

 

FBI Director Kash Patel says the contents of the burn bags containing Trump-Russia documents discovered at the FBI building will be made public one way or another. 

“You’re going to see everything we found in that room in one way or another, be it through investigation, public trial, or disclosure to the Congress,” Patel told The Epoch Times in an interview with reporter Jan Jekielek that will air Saturday.  ...

Comey is a shitbag, just like Brennan is.  And Comey's cadre at the FBI are also shitbags, as are the people who were Brennan's cadre.

Naturally, Congress will do its damndest to keep much of that material out of the public's eye, mostly because a lot of Congress members are part of the scheme.

We'll see whether their secret-keeping plan holds. 

DOOM!! DOOM!!--Say the Weather Guys

 Here we go again.

 The "MOST EXTREME COLD ON EARTH!!!!" is going to arrive in the Upper Midwest around the 15th of December.

You are DOOMED!!!  DOOMED!!!, I say!!!

Gather the firewood and shoot-and-skin a couple of bears so you have coats.  Dig 30 feet into the side of a hill for natural earth-warmth!  Take provisions because you never know when all the stores will freeze shut.  Lakes and rivers will freeze solid, so be sure to grab some bottled water.

All for a couple extra revenue-bucks on the weather segment of the Local Nooz. 

"Vetting" Afghans? Not Too Good.

 It looks like "vetting" of Afghan refugees (CIA buddies) was problematic.  Propaganda motives aside, it was a lot of guesswork--and still is. 

One glaring omission from all of these stories?  Mohammedanism as a factor.  There's a reason for that, as we'll see below.

More than 5,000 Afghans brought to the US after American forces withdrew from the country got flagged for “national security” issues, Department of Homeland Security data obtained by The Post reveals.

In all, the feds uncovered “potential derogatory information” on a total of 6,868 people who came from Afghanistan as part of President Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome in 2021.

Of that number, 5,005 came up with a national security concern, while 956 people had “public safety” concerns and 876 were flagged for fraud, according to the data....

Well, that's a problem.  Fortunately, that number got a lot smaller.

 ...While various US agencies were able to resolve many of the red flags, as of September there were still 885 people with potentially negative national security information – posing a possible threat....

(We are VERY suspicious about "reports" using 'potentially' and 'possible.'  So the Grassley-leaked info looks to be an attempt at propaganda or--if you prefer--'less than totally honest wording.')

But there's something else.

 ...Even while compiling its report, the IGs office noted the feds charged two Afghan nationals, Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi and Abdullah Haji Zada, with planning an ISIS-inspired plot to try to disrupt the 2024 elections in Oklahoma City.

Tawhedi — who came into the US in 2021 on a Special Immigrant Visa and obtained two AK-47 assault rifles and 500 rounds of ammo in 2024 — pleaded guilty in June to providing material support for ISIS and faces up to 35 years in prison. Zada, 19, got a 15-year sentence. ...

IOW, Muslim extremists.  Recall that the D.C. killer reportedly yelled "Allahu Akhbar" as he opened fire on the Guard members.

Official Washington is incapable of recognizing the tribal influence of religion on its adherents.  Bush the Dumber was a classic example of that, as has been the US State Department vis-a-vis the slaughter of Christians Catholics in Nigeria. (Yes, they are CATHOLIC.)  That's because the pro-forma "membership" in churches of the Governing Class of idiots is just that:  pro-forma.  Handy for getting elected, otherwise meaningless.

The Establishment simply cannot grok religious motives.  The single curious exception is the 'religiously-motivated' Zionists in the Middle East, who are granted a free pass to eradicate non-Jews on 'religious' grounds, from areas in which they have lived for hundreds--if not thousands--of years.

Why is that?

 

 

Pp. Leo "Declines to Pray" in Mosque

A startling bit of news.

 According to the AP, the Vatican had briefed the press to expect Leo to hold a “brief moment of silent prayer” at the Islamic place of worship known for its thousands of blue Iznik tiles. However, after being invited to pray by Imam Asgin Tunca in “Allah’s house”, the Pope politely declined. The Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) reported that Leo replied: “No, I am just going to look around.”

Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni later said: “The pope experienced his visit to the mosque in silence, in a spirit of contemplation and listening, with deep respect for the place and the faith of those who gather there in prayer.”...

Both Franny1 AND B-16 did pray at that mosque.

Hmmm. 

Ukraine Truth Gets Uglier

We all know that Ukraine is THE most corrupt country in the West, if not in the entire world.

 Earlier this month Ukrainian businessman Tymur Mindich, co-owner of Kvartal 95 the Ukrainian TV production company Volodymyr Zelenskyy founded before he became president, fled the country as the NABU (National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine) announced results from a widespread corruption probe....

Money given to Ukraine for subsidies was being skimmed from the energy sector by several high-profile government and business officials. The NABU probe and raids on offices to discover document trails of the officials is ongoing....

...I have personally seen these corrupt Ukraine characters (politicians and private sector oligarchs) in action, literally spending tens-of-thousands of U.S. taxpayer funds (in cash) at the Port of Montenegro while I was tracking them in 2023 and 2024.  They were staying in massive suites at the Regent Hotel, expensive boats and exotic cars with each. So please, don’t try to sell me on the honorable Ukraine politician schtick....

Now for the slam:

...notice how quiet the U.S. Senate has been on this explosive story about Ukraine officials being caught skimming money.  The Senate is quiet because almost two-thirds of the senators are taking money from the laundry operation [LIST HERE].It’s not just Ukraine officials making money from the massive EU/USA funding scheme. ...

Conspicuously absent from that list?

Ron Johnson.

Conspicuously ON that list?

Tammy Baldwin.

Draw your own conclusions. 

The POS Kristol.....Again

Surber reminds us about Bill Kristol (mentor to Charlie Sykes):

 ITEM 10: Bill Kristol tweeted during the surrender of Afghanistan on August 16, 2021, “Almost every Afghan refugee will turn out to be so much better an American than Charlie Kirk.”

Reminds me:  is Sykes still vomiting Democrat blather someplace? 

Another EV Maker Bites the Dust

 Never even heard of this bunch.

 

...Bollinger Motors — the Michigan EV startup once hyped for its boxy electric truck designs — has shut down operations, according to internal emails obtained by the Detroit Free Press.

The company's human resources director told employees that November 21 was Bollinger's final day in business....

...Bollinger burst onto the scene in the late 2010s with its retro-styled, battery-powered B1 SUV and B2 truck, both priced over $120,000. 

But neither ever made it to production. ...

It joins a lengthening list of losers:

 ...Several car companies that made bets on EV pickups — including Lordstown Motors, Fisker Inc, and Nikola Trucks — have all collapsed before their consumer pickups hit US roads. 

Meanwhile, Tesla's Cybertruck hasn't met lofty sales expectations, Chevy has had to slow Silverado EV production, and Ford is considering axing the F-150 Lightning. ...

Don't bet that FoMoCo will re-energize the Lightning, either. 

Dear President Trump: Get the Hell OUTTA There!

 We note that 1)  Putin says he will NOT sign any deal with Zelenskiy because the little camo-man is not the legitimate leader of Ukraine; thus, 2)  Zelenskiy said he doesn't like Russia and will not give up any territory (which was a component of the Trump 'peace plan.')

Following that, the EuroWeenie Coalition (all talk, no troops) attempted to sabotage the talks by releasing the content of a call made between Witkoff and the Russkies and they are ramping up measures against the Russians.

President Trump should recall any/all US troops in Europe, stop issuing taxpayer checks to NATO and the EuroWeenie coalition, and send them a note saying "Kiss Our Ass" with a CC to little camo-man.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Tech-Wives Mafia Member Tells All

 She figured it out and tells the tale.  Maybe the local wives will catch on, too.

 

Nicole Shanahan — ex-wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, former running mate of RFK Jr., and someone who personally signed nine-figure philanthropy checks — just went full whistleblower on the entire Silicon Valley “tech wife mafia” and how they were used. Her exact words (full clip attached): “I don’t think many of the tech mafia wives realize… they were used to set the groundwork for what Klaus Schwab calls The Great Reset. Their money especially was being conscripted through a network of NGO advisors, Hollywood, Davos, and their own companies. A really small group of people… completely blind to how their groundwork is being used to enable these Great Reset policies.”

Then she turns the knife inward: “These women find their meaning through philanthropic work. I really believed I was helping Black communities and indigenous communities rise up. But now the problems have gotten worse. Crime worse. Mental health worse. The whole model is broken. At the end of the day they always go: ‘But climate change.’ Social justice + climate change — it gets progressive women 100% of the time.”...

That, and abortion, which was the sole and entire focus of the last two women elected to the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Think her story will turn on the lights in the heads of the North Shore Nancys?  Or the Wauwatosa Wimminfolk?  The Brookfield Barbies?

Maybe.  Prayer works..... 

National Lawyers' Guild Informs Seditious Six

 The National Lawyers' Guild (NLG) is a well-known Communist front organization which has infested the US for several decades.  Here in Milwaukee, they are connected to the Usual Suspects, too.

Turns out that the Seditious Six were reading from a script likely written by an NLG member.

... The seditious six video urging military personnel to mutiny came from a script according to Ruben Gallego, a Democrat senator of the far left. But there’s more to this. The National Lawyers Guild (NLG), which is a communist front organization, issued a document about refusing illegal orders on November 11. A week later, on the 18th, the seditious video came out....

 ...NLG has now partnered with Win Without War to advertise seditious–adjacent behavior on billboards. Win Without War has multiple congressional liaisons on their “About page.”

You should know that the National Lawyers Guild has also been a supporter of Antifa, a terrorist anarcho-communist organization....

The likely author of the script is an interesting fellow.  Claims to be published in several Jewish journals.

The NLG in Milwaukee has lots of ........ahhh...........interesting connections, too.  Note that their masthead mentions Art Heitzer, who was a notorious troublemaker when he was a student at the Marquette Law school back in the '60's.  Some things never change.

Other Milwaukee connections?  Sure!!  Casa Maria, Souls to the Polls, the American Federation of Teachers local at MATC, and (surprise!!!)  Ryan Clancy--all "followers".  NLG here also "follows" Voces de la Frontera and David Crowley, not to mention the old standard-bearer, the ACLU.

Other than finding ex-CIA personnel and other detritus serving as "public servants", nothing here should surprise you.  If it did, you have not been paying attention.

Joe McCarthy was right, no matter how much the Professional Left Propagandists (read:  MSM) hate him. 

How It Works

 The objective of the Seditious Six and their thousands of active supporters is an overthrow of the Federal Government.  How they go about getting to that goal is shown here, based on research from the US Army in the 1950's.  It is also the operating manual for the CIA's "color revolutions" so you won't be surprised to learn that the CIA and its Deep State partners (State and FBI) provide elements and manpower to the cause.  Illustration and accompanying essay can be found here.

Naturally, the Cabal does not expect any sort of armed-and-willing-to-kill resistance.  It would be a shame if they encountered it, ain'a? 

 

Charlotte Bishop Grows SSPX!

 The "Catholic" Bishop of Charlotte, NC, has effectively suppressed the Old Rite Mass by shutting down its celebration in four parish churches and moving it to a single 350-seat chapel.  The Mass typically drew 600++ of the faithful so that created a problem.

But it was NOT a problem for the SSPX.  It was a boon.

 

...Jim De Piante, project manager for the new St. Anthony’s Church [SSPX], told LifeSiteNews its chapel has experienced slow but steady growth since Traditionis Custodes was published. The motu proprio, issued by Pope Francis, states that Traditional Latin Masses (TLMs) are not to be celebrated in “parochial” churches, and Bishop Michael Martin accordingly announced in May that the four remaining TLMs in the Diocese of Charlotte were to be suppressed and merged into one new chapel.

The suppression took effect October 2, when families packed the new TLM chapel in Mooresville to overflowing, numbering 625 people. However, the chapel, Little Flower, only seats about 350 people. Martin has admitted it is not meant to fit all the TLM-goers in the diocese. 

Since October 2, the numbers attending the diocesan TLM at Little Flower has plummeted, averaging an attendance of about 370-400 over the past few Sundays. Meanwhile, attendance at the SSPX Mass at St. Anthony’s has grown, as numbers shared by De Piante show. By late October and early November, about 100 more people were attending St. Anthony’s than had been in early July....

Predicting this growth and a resulting new church was as difficult as predicting that rain will fall down.

The SSPX is not subject to that Bishop.  Among other things, that means that the Bishop cannot extract a "cathedrata" (income tax) from that group.  But the Bishop must recognize baptisms and weddings under a decree issued by none other than Franny1, and Catholics may attend Masses celebrated by the SSPX to fulfill their Sunday and Holyday obligations.

Too bad, so sad, Excellency.  

The good news?  Every other Bishop in the US reads the newspapers, too, and they can take a hint.  

Meantime, in Chicago

The usual crime continues both in City Hall and on the streets.

But amidst all that fog of war, we found another interesting number.  A convicted criminal (ex-cop) came out of prison and re-offended, swiping $350K from a little old lady.

But between his first stay at Club Graybar and his upcoming second gray vacay, he was hired by Chicago's Department of Transportation.

... Pecora, who resigned from the police department shortly before heading to prison, has apparently continued his service to the city post-conviction. Municipal payroll records list him as a $51.41-per-hour “asphalt laborer” for the Chicago Department of Transportation. ...

For the math-challenged (read:  Public School grads), that works out to just under $107K/year.

Not bad for slinging hot asphalt, eh? 

The CIA, Oswald, JFK, and Israel

Following the release of 60K+ documents last year, it is clear that the CIA cannot be ruled out of complicity in the assassination of JFK.  Turns out that Angleton was also a ferocious Zionist.  Coincidence?

A few tantalizing bits:

 ...Perhaps the main architect of that cover-up was the CIA spymaster James Jesus Angleton, who, despite being the counterintelligence chief presiding over what was supposedly the worst intelligence failure since Pearl Harbor, wound up deeply involved in the CIA’s official investigation into the assassination. 

Though Angleton insisted that the agency was inattentive to Oswald and unaware of the purpose of his activities leading up to Dallas, it has since been disclosed through unclassified JFK assassination records that Angleton personally maintained a classified 201 intelligence/surveillance file on Oswald for the four years preceding Kennedy’s assassination, strictly controlling which officials inside the CIA were permitted to see it through compartmentalization. 

Angleton’s deceptions to investigators are so numerous that 60 years later they are still being uncovered; in one notable instance only revealed this year, Angleton committed perjury before the House Select Committee on Assassinations, claiming he knew almost nothing about Lee Harvey Oswald before the shooting. In another, Angleton concealed the fact that Oswald had visited the Cuban embassy in Mexico City—a visit the CIA publicly claimed it only discovered after the assassination. As Jefferson Morley, author of The Ghost: The Secret Life of CIA Spymaster James Jesus Angleton, explained, the  counter-intelligence chief “preferred to wait out the Warren Commission rather than explain the CIA’s knowledge of and interest in Oswald’s visit to the Cuban consulate” in Mexico....

 It is correct that Angleton was a raving paranoid.  But that doesn't change the facts about the CIA.

Not off-topic, we find that Angleton was an Israeli asset, too.

... his legacy has been consistently venerated by Israel’s intelligence services. In his memoir, the former director of the Mossad, Meir Amit, famously described James Angleton as “the biggest Zionist of the lot,” adding that “his total identification with Israel was an extraordinary asset for us.” As Morley writes, “Angleton’s loyalty to Israel betrayed US policy on an epic scale,” probably allowing the Israelis to build a nuclear bomb using stolen materials from the U.S.-based Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation (NUMEC) facility at a time when it was the expressed policy of the U.S. government to prevent Israel from acquiring one. ...

Israel's first A-bomb was ready to go in '66 or '67, meaning that the JFK Administration was opposed to that development (as was Ike's.)  Certainly helps to have JFK out of the way, then.

But there's more!!

Turns out that JFK picked all sorts of  fights with "America's Greatest Ally", thus raising the question

 ...whether Israel may have had a role in or foreknowledge of the plot against Kennedy, who spent his final months battling the Israeli government over its nuclear program, its lobby power in the U.S., and the resettlement of Palestinians from the land the Israelis had expelled them from. ...

(You can expect this post to be suppressed for the above item.)

... [Author] Good also highlights how Angleton’s Israeli channel intersected with Lee Harvey Oswald. The Counterintelligence Staff officer assigned to read Oswald’s mail and collect it for the 201 surveillance file that Angleton maintained before the assassination was Reuben Efron—a committed Zionist who had lived in Israel, published on espionage in a World Zionist Organization–affiliated journal, and, as Jefferson Morley notes, sat in on Marina Oswald’s Warren Commission interview with no official role listed.

At the very moment a U.S. president was seeking to restrict Israel’s nuclear ambitions and limit the political power of its lobby in Washington, the CIA official in control of the Oswald file was secretly sharing intelligence channels, assassination communications, and off-the-books operatives with Israel—and lying to both Congress and potentially some of his own CIA colleagues about it. The government spent 60 years redacting those facts and Americans have a right to know why....

Indeed.

Maybe someone should ask Netanyahu.

BTW, it was Trump who released the documents.  Some accuse him of being Israel's Good Servant, but if that were the case, why did Trump release them? 

There Is an "Insurrection Academy"

Based on the record of its graduates, this outfit bears close watching.

 New Politics and New Politics Academy are part of a leftist PAC that is training leftist candidates from the military and other public service agencies like the spy agencies. Ask yourself why. They have recently gotten a large infusion in cash and five, perhaps all six, of the Democrats appearing in the military coup video, were trained by them....

 ...At least five of the seditious six were recruited and trained for office by “New Politics”....

Hmmm.

A brain-dead commenter here took up the New Politics Party Line and called Trump's deployment of USARNG personnel in D.C. "illegal."  He knows the UCMJ and the Constitution backwards and forwards, having been a County Social Worker.  More to the point, he--and a lot of others--take that Party Line as though it were a fact.

There are dangerous people running around loose...... 

 

"Experts" on Your Old 'Stuff'

We've seen a lot of stupidity from "experts."  This one may win the prize for '25.

 ...According to a recent survey by Reviews.org, the average American now holds onto their smartphone for 29 months, a significant increase from the 22-month average in 2016. This trend is not limited to individual consumers; businesses are also holding onto outdated technology for even longer periods to delay the expense of device rollouts.

Experts claim that lost productivity and inefficiency are the unintended consequences of people and businesses clinging to aging technology. Cassandra Cummings, CEO of New Jersey-based electronics design company Thomas Instrumentation, explains that older devices were engineered when internet speeds were much slower, and they often struggle to keep up with the faster speeds available today. This can lead to networks throttling back their speeds to accommodate the slowest devices, resulting in entire sections of networks running slower than they would if all devices were up to the newer standards....

Oh, my!

...Najiba Benabess, dean of the business school at Neumann University, warns that rising prices and sustainability concerns are among the reasons “America’s gadgets are aging out,” but the focus should be on the resulting productivity slowdown, increasing repair and maintenance expenses, and limited access to software updates and efficiency gains. Small businesses, in particular, lose valuable hours each year due to lagging systems, creating what economists call a “productivity drag.” On a national scale, this translates to billions of dollars in lost output and reduced innovation. ...

Billions and Billions and Billions!!!!   

Wonder why nobody ever heard of the Business School at Neumann U?

Slow devices. 

Great! Brits Intercept Classified Phone Call

As most of us know, the British government has no moral guideposts.  So this story comes as no surprise.

 The global intelligence motive (5 Eyes) would be laughable if it were not so transparent.  In an effort to create problems for President Trump and the Ukraine-Russia peace negotiations, an unknown intelligence agency intercepted the call then provided a recording to Bloomberg News.

The intercept was not likely U.S-based, or the leak would be to a different media outlet (WaPo, NYT or Politico). The Bloomberg angle indicates a likely EU intelligence source, with one of the “coalition of the willing” (U.K, France, Germany, or Brussels) the most likely suspect.  Given the nature of the intercept, and the intent behind the leak, the British seem the most likely of sources....

These are the same people who did all they could to prevent Trump from being elected; and after failing that, they did all they could to support his impeachment.

Churchill would be proud! 

The Whole Story on the Afghan/Muzzie Shooter

On occasion, the TDS-deranged will publish a story worth quoting.  He got this from DD_Geopolitics.

 

Everyone is spinning the Lakanwal DC shooting into a left/right blame war. The facts don’t allow for that.

Here’s what’s actually documented:

• He entered the U.S. on a Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) during Operation Allies Refuge, a process that began under Trump, was executed during the Biden withdrawal, and was supported by bipartisan votes in Congress.

• He filed for asylum in late 2024 and was approved in April 2025 under the current administration, but asylum adjudication is handled by career officers following laws written and funded by multiple administrations.

• Both parties expanded, supported, or failed to reform the SIV and asylum systems that allowed this case to unfold the way it did.

Trying to turn this into a partisan attack misses the real issue because this wasn’t a “Democrat failure” or a “Republican failure.” It was a system failure decades in the making, and both sides helped build the system.

Bush started the war, Obama continued it, Trump expanded the SIV pipeline, Biden executed the withdrawal and processed the evacuees, Congress funded it under all four.

If people want accountability, start with the policies, not the tribal talking points.

 You should not be surprised.  "Experts" handled it, just like the "experts" in CDC, or the FBI, or any D.C. bunch--including "expert" judges who cannot figure out what is a woman.

Yet they persist, like STD's. 

FBI to Us on Crooks: "You WIll Get Nothing, and Be Happy"

 That "transparency" thing that Bongino yammered about?

Fuggedaboutit.

... Comer’s revelations are among several disturbing new pieces of information that have emerged about Crooks in the absence of a full report from the FBI on the gunman’s online activity, psychological profile and descent from high-achieving math whiz and high school honors graduate in suburban Pittsburgh to a 20-year-old would-be assassin in declining mental health who had started staying up all night dancing and talking to himself, according to his father....

... Now there are new allegations that Crooks’ autopsy and toxicology report was missing a crucial piece of information; his blood was tested for 12 drugs but not for cannabis....

While Cong. Comer's concerns--voiced in the article--are not overwhelmingly frightening, the FEEBS seem to have been secretive about this guy from the get-go.

The source who provided The Post with Crooks’ digital footprint says that, in the summer of 2019 — when Crooks was in his “pro-Trump” phase before flipping to ­anti-Trump the following year ... On Dec. 12, 2019, Crooks wrote “MURDER THE DEMOCRATS!!” In January 2020, Crooks’ rhetoric suddenly turned anti-Trump until his online presence vanished in August 2020, according to the source....

We dislike Democrats intensely here.  But 'murder them all' is a signal that someone should have followed up on, no?

As to that cannabis thing:

 ...Dr. Ken Finn, a board member of the International Academy on the Science and Impact of Cannabis (IASIC), described the July 22, 2024, autopsy on Crooks as “shoddy.”

The toxicology report showed Crooks’ blood had elevated levels of heavy metals — lead, antimony and selenium, which Finn says is a telltale sign of a chronic cannabis user.

He cites scientific research backing his claim, including a 2023 paper in the journal of Environmental Health Perspectives titled “Blood and Urinary Metal Levels among Exclusive Marijuana Users,” finding that “because the cannabis plant is a known scavenger of metals,” ­users had “statistically significantly higher” levels of lead and cadmium in their blood and urine....

Elsewhere it has been noted that heavy dope-smoking can often result in violent acting-out.  Shooting Trump qualifies as "violent."

  But an even better question is "Why didn't the coroner test for Wacky Weed?"  Did that cost too much?  Was he just a lazy-assed local?  Or was he told not to?.........by whom???

Meantime, we will label this "Bongino Transparency."  You get nothing, and you will be happy. 

"Some Americans Object" Says Dilanian

You have to read it to believe it.  Here's MSNOW (MSNBC) jackwad commenting following the attempted murders of USARNG personnel in D.C.

... “[O]f course, you know, there’s so much controversy happening in the United States right now with ICE, who are also wearing uniforms and wearing masks. And so there’s, you don’t know, people walking around with uniforms in an American city. There are some Americans that might object to that. And so apparently this shooting has happened,” he said during an MS NOW breaking news report....

Gee, Ken.  Some Americans object to YOU, ya'know.  Is that a license to shoot you?

(By the way, Ken-moron:  the shooter is not American.  He's a Biden-Boy Afghan who reportedly yelled Allahu Akhbar before commencing fire.) 

A Touch of Cynicism About Trump

Below we mentioned that Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) was correct when he stated that 'the US does not have the money' for Trump's (inane) proposal to send $2K to every taxpayer earning less than $100K.  The proposal was silly, and perhaps Trump tossed it out there to keep the MSM busy chasing the laser-pointer around the room--it's fun to watch them go crazy, after all.

Others are far more cynical about Trump.

 ...Trump’s closure of the border and continuing modest efforts to deport the tens of millions of illegal invaders is about the only real positive I’ve witnessed in his first year in office. The old “at least he’s not Kamala” mantra is wearing thin and does not explain his exasperatingly stupid decisions and bloviating pronouncements on a daily basis. Those who adhere to the principles of liberty, freedom, transparency, free speech, not policing the world, and fiscal responsibility are extremely disappointed, but not surprised by the results under Trump thus far. His absolute vitriolic hatred for Rand Paul, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie Taylor Greene, who voted with him 90% of the time, tells me all I need to know about Trump’s moral compass and adherence to the Constitution.

Despite the initial publicity campaign (propaganda) for DOGE and the huge cuts to spending which Trump spewed on a daily basis, the national debt increases by $6.5 billion PER DAY, just as it did under the pants-shitting president before him. Future generations are incurring $3.3 billion PER DAY of interest on the now $39 trillion national debt. Trump’s tariff revenue is like pissing in an ocean of debt, as he acts like he is going to send us $2,000 checks with the money he just made us pay by imposing the tariffs. The big beautiful bill cut nothing. Ignoring future recessions and multiple looming wars, the CBO projects the debt to go up by another $23 trillion in the next ten years. I’ll take the over, if the entire Ponzi scheme doesn’t collapse beforehand....

 Well.........both Rand Paul and Tom Massie are doctrinaire Libertarians; they deserve to get slapped up once in a while.  Libertarianism is simply not MAGA; it is the creature that Hobbes would love, and that's not pretty--nor is it within the bounds of the American spirit.

That said, Trump has a lot to address in his (upcoming) budget proposal and the Republicans in Congress must stop being Barbie Doll posers about the criminal grifting going on in D.C.

If they don't do it, it will be done anyway, and they might not enjoy how. 

RoJo Is Right. Drat!

 Ron Johnson (R-WI) is right.

 Wisconsin Republican Senator Ron Johnson says there won’t be $2,000 tariff dividend checks as the President promised because the U.S. can’t afford it.

Trump's proposal would cost around $300 BILLION.

The US could have afforded it if Biden and Trump had not pissed away $250++ BILLION on a war over some land in which the US has zero vital national interests, of course.

Jus' sayin' 

Matt Walsh on Republicans

Did you know that both Tom Tiffany and Scott Fitzgerald sit on the Judiciary Committee in the House?

Did you know that from that perch, either of them could bring impeachment charges against Bo-Ass-Berg?

Matt Walsh has something to say to them.

 

"Low Consumer Confidence," Eh???

The MSM/Democrat Propaganda Machines vomit forth "studies" and "surveys" showing that American consumers are "not confident" in the economy.

Funny, that.  The only "surveys" and "studies" that count are the ones which tell you about consumer spending.

 ...Americans could eat and drink at home, they could bring lunch to work, etc., but they choose to eat out. And despite Americans sour mood, sales at these establishments continue to soar, they shot way past sales at grocery & beverage stores, and the distance between them keeps growing. Sales at restaurants & bars now account for 14% of total retail sales, behind only motor-vehicle & parts dealers (#1) and ecommerce (#2).

Sales at these food services and drinking places jumped by 0.74% in September from August and by 6.7% year-over-year...

There's more.

 

...Visa and Mastercard both reported higher quarterly earnings as consumer spending and card payments stayed resilient across key markets.

Visa said fiscal fourth-quarter net revenue rose 12% to $10.7 billion, helped by growth in payments volume, cross-border payments and processed transactions....

Where the rubber meets the road, the American consumer is perfectly happy.

No doubt the Highly Trained Professional Journalists will catch up with the facts, perhaps in 10 years or so. 

"Government Man" Hagedorn Makes Fool of Self

This twit Hagedorn is a Friend of Scott Walker.  Don't forget that.  He has consistently ruled for the Government's position or interests in any major SCOWI case.  Here, he rules against the US Constitution, along with the six Lefty harridans.  So we have a new, very discordant band:  Hagedorn and the Harridans.  

But as WILL notes, the real objective is chaos, just like the '20 election.

 

The Wisconsin Supreme Court allowed legal challenges to the state’s congressional maps to continue forward, appointing two separate three–judge panels to hear the cases, an action that a top legal organization says violates the U.S. Constitution....

 ...The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty vowed to fight the action, saying it would violate the U.S. Constitution.

“The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) had argued against such an appointment as any attempt to redraw the Congressional district lines in this manner would violate the U.S. Constitution,” WILL said in a news release. “These efforts also threaten to plunge Wisconsin’s election cycle into uncertainty just months before the next election season kicks off.”...

WILL rarely loses cases.  It is settled SCOTUS doctrine that redistricting is a political--not a judicial--matter.  Hagedorn and the Harridans disagree with SCOTUS.

The question is whether they can get away with it again.  They're daring us to do something about it..... 

Have Home Prices Hit Peak??

 There is a lot of anguish over the cost of homes these days.  Factors which drove prices up include high demand from the huge Boomer generation, larger and more-accessory-equipped housing, and Fed-, State-, and local zoning regulations and building-code changes.  Naturally, you will not find the MSM nor the usual "Gummint Knows All" junkies talking about the regulations and building codes--nor the impact that 20 MILLION illegal immigrants have on the demand side.

On the buyer-side, it's rarely reported that payments on college loans compress free cashflow for mortgage payments--another factor never discussed by the Usual Propagandists.  Like cars, homes are often purchased based on the size/affordability of payments.

And yes, we know that home prices have been rising since the 1970's; that's because all of those factors have been in play to a greater or lesser degree for the past 50 years.  

That said, maybe the prices have hit "peak."

 Redfin reports the number of home listings that were pulled off the market rose to a historically high level in September. Many homeowners would rather stay put than accept a low offer, and this increase in delistings is propping up home prices...

Those 'de-listings' may prop up prices for the time being, but are also a sign that demand is decreasing relative to supply.  And we suspect that's going to continue as the huge number of home-owning Boomers finally decide to move to 'senior housing' apartments and/or condos.  Which means that supply is going to grow--significantly--over the next decade, while demand drops as illegals leave AND as much smaller cohorts of US citizens look for housing.

One of life's more important economics lessons is this:  demographics drive nearly everything.

The demographic of Boomers is the one to watch in the housing drama. 

 

Is Cong. McFaul On the Take?

 We all know that a large percentage of USAID money goes right back to "connected" (another word for that is "made") individuals in D.C. and other fetid corrupto-towns.

Is that why Cong. McFaul (R) is so distraught over the death of USAID?

Another good question that will likely never be answered. 

Something Fishy in Kenosha?

 The Feds (not ICE) conducted a few raids in Kenosha, rounding up about 20 child- and sex-traffickers.  Some were illegals, and have been deported.

The interesting part?

 Federal teams from Homeland Security and the FBI staged parts of the operation at the Kenosha Public Safety Building.

Local agencies, including the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office and Kenosha Police Department, were not asked to take part. Officials said federal investigators did not require local assistance due to the scope and sensitivity of the case....

IOW, the Feds shut out the locals.  Totally.

The Sheriff is PO'd.

 " I always appreciate a heads-up when major federal activity takes place in our community. It helps us address concerns, manage local impacts, and support our residents," said Sheriff Zoerner.

Maybe the Sheriff should be asking why the Feds raided the Kenosha Public Safety Building, hmmmmmm?? 

How Swampy is Tom Tiffany?

 We all know that Tom Tiffany wants to be Governor of Wisconsin.

Fine.  But remember this:  he's a Swamp dweller.  That "northwoods folksy" thing is a big act.

How do we know?

Tiffany is a member of the House Judiciary Committee.  He is in the very best place to initiate an impeachment of "Judge" Bo-Ass-Berg, the extreme partisan who ignores the Constitution, law, and ethics to make life impossible for the Administration.

What has Swamp-Tiffany done?

Nada.  Zero.  Zip.

Yah, we know.  It takes a lot of time to run for Governor.  That's his excuse and he's sticking to it. 

What's reality?

Tiffany has no balls. 

Mark Warner, Soft-Handed WarMonger Bitch

 Warner has very soft hands for a guy who talks tough about the only peace plan on the table.

...  it feels like this was a plan that they took almost entirely from the Russians, did no consultation with Congress, no consultation with the Europeans, obviously didn’t read in Zelenskyy and the Ukrainians, and now they’re getting ferocious pushback....

But that "pushback" is only coming from Europeans (who cares?), US Senators (who cares?), and the Deep State (who cares)?  Of course, here "Deep State" actually means State Department striped-pants drones and droolers who were left out for a reason:  they don't get stuff done.  Which plan have they put forward?  For that matter, Marky-Mark, which plan have YOU put forward?

Warner continues to wail and snort because he is ..........offended.

...  the Ukrainians have performed magnificently in the field. And they are reinventing the nature of warfare in terms of use — use of drones. To have this proposal forced upon them, I think as Zelenskyy said, Ukrainian dignity versus giving up a partner, I would hope the president would not be so weak as to try to force this plan on the Ukrainian and our other allies....

No, Marky-Mark.  Weakness is YOUR thing.  Face it, boy, Zelinskiy and Europe do not have to accept the plan.  They just have to finance and fight the war all by themselves.  (Of course, you could go over there and help.  Please take Liiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnndssssseeeeeeeeeeeey along as a room-mate. 

Keep your pinky finger up when drinking the tea, Marky-Mark.  Let real men handle treaties. 

P.S.:  Warner is corrupt as Hell.  He was Senate Select Intel--trying to depose Trump--during the first term. 

The Housing-Cost of Immigration

 The cost has been calculated.

For every 1 million immigrants (legal or not) rent-cost increases 1%.

There are at least 15 million immigrants who showed up in the last 25 years or so.

That's at least a 15% increase in rents, nationally.

Surely the US Bishops will write strongly-worded letters about that, right?? 

Bleating About Ukie Peace Plan

 This deserves a two-word response.

 

There is a lot in that plan that much of Europe will almost certainly find unacceptable.

The two words?

SO WHAT?? 

MKE Worse Than Chicago

 Under Mayor "Corvair" (Unsafe at Any Speed) Johnson, the Milwaukee homicide rate of 22.86 (homicides per 100K population) is worse than the rate in Chicago (18.7 per 100K).

Comparison?

The overall US rate is 5.6 per 100K.

Get the Hell out of there!! 

 

Calling Out Pope Leo

 This young woman hits it out of the park.

 

In a remarkable video, a young woman named “Laura” who converted from Buddhism to Catholicism in 2018 pleads with Pope Leo XVI to be faithful to his role as Christ’s representative on Earth and urged him to stop being “confusing and abstract.” ...

She nails him for his seeming support for all sorts of perverts and his preferred immigration policy for the US (and Europe.)  It is possible that Leo wants to state authentic Catholic teachings, but he can not (or will not) be clear and concise.

Over here, we've given up on Leo as a defender of the Faith.  Almost all his statements can be characterized as Good-Time-Charley-Wanna-Be-Friends??  blather.

Like this:   ☺️

Maybe that's how he should start signing his proclamations. 

You Invest With Schwab? Really???

 Schwab has been running some very expensive commercials lately, touting their investment methods.

Too bad that Schwab's Information Technology group is a problem, eh?  (Yes--that's the 'back-end' which keeps your info confidential and does not screw up your investment selections.)

 

...an insider at Charles Schwab discusses the incompetence of its Indian contractors and how white employees frequently have to clean up their mistakes, as well as their plans to offshore work to India in the coming months. According to him, the entire tech team at Charles Schwab, "which is probably over half of the 30,000 or so employees," is overwhelmingly Indian, and Charles Schwab also contracts out through major bodyshops such as Infosys, Wipro, and TCS, bringing in more Indians. He states that the Indians at Charles Schwab are extraordinarily incompetent, often "[a]sking questions about basic concepts or things that any software engineer with prior experience should know or know how to figure out." Indians at Charles Schwab will typically "bug the more experienced (often white) employees to 'help them out' (aka do the work for them)." Additionally, Charles Schwab is opening a center in India next year, and Americans are being sent there to train the new employees....

You've seen that a million times here:  the H1-B's are NOT 'experts.'  They are largely mediocre louts who don't have a clue what they are doing--and they don't understand business either. 

But hey!  The money Schwab saves by hiring incompetent non-US citizens will pay for more ads, see!!!

 

Establishment Mo' War!! Games From the Senate

 Earlier today, we posted an essay based on a Sundance article.  In that post, Sundance made it clear that Establishment Republicans (and Establishment Democrats) intend to take down the Trump Administration by any means necessary, including losing the '26 mid-terms so Democrats can resume their Impeachment Theatre games.

Here's a clear and obvious example.  

Trump & Co. put a 'peace plan' on the table and told Zelenskiy to take it; if not, all US support would vanish.  Of course, Zelenksiy can continue killing every Ukrainian--but his support would have to come from Europe and Canada.  Neither Europe nor Canada wants that; they want US money, weapons, and--if possible--US troops on the ground.

The Globaloney Crowd (Eurocrats and their US allies) went hair-on-fire over the Trump proposal and are raising Hell about it.

Marco Rubio was forced on the defensive last night after a bipartisan group of senators claimed he told them the US's peace plan for Ukraine was authored by Russia....

... Rubio took the extraordinary step of suggesting online that the senators were mistaken, even though they said he was their source for the information. 

The secretary of state doubled down on the assertion that Washington was responsible for a proposal, which has faced push back in Europe for being so favorable to Moscow.

The widely leaked 28-point US-backed peace plan was, according to the White House, the result of a month of work between Rubio and Trump envoy Steve Witkoff along with input from what it said was both Ukrainians and Russians. 

The plan accepts many Russian demands that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has categorically rejected on dozens of occasions, including giving up large pieces of territory. ...

 Who are these Senators?

Rounds, King and Shaheen are named.  They called "experts" on foreign affairs.

Just as important:  they are speaking from Canada, where they (and other US figures) are attending some Globaloney Get-Along and Hate-on-Trump conference in Halifax.  That's not a coincidence.

 ....about 300 people gather annually at the Halifax International Security Forum held at Halifax´s Westin hotel. The forum attracts military officials, U.S. senators, diplomats and scholars but this year the Trump administration suspended participation of U.S. defense officials in events by think tanks, including the Halifax International Security Forum.

A large number of U.S. senators made the trip this year in part because of strained relations between Canada and the U.S. Trump has alienated America´s neighbor with his trade war and insistence that Canada should become the 51st U.S. state. Many Canadians now refuse to travel to the U.S. and border states like Shaheen´s New Hampshire are seeing a dramatic drop in tourism....

The other reason for making the trip?

To disrupt Trump's initiative.

There is a lot of lying-by-omission going on here.  It's clear that the Russians gave Trump a wish-list and a lot of that was written into the proposal.  But did Russia "write the document" as these pasty-faced elected twits claim?  

Nope.  The US wrote it, as Rubio correctly states.

 

 

Employ Illegals? Go To Prison!

No question that the best way to stop illegal immigration is to jail those who hire them.

Finally, it is beginning, big-time.

 A couple from Michigan just got busted for allegedly hiring over 240 illegal immigrants to work at their commercial plumbing business....

 ...U.S. attorneys say the couple owns Orduna Plumbing Inc., a company based in Michigan with operations spanning several states, including New York, Ohio, and North Carolina. Moises Orduna-Rios serves as the company’s president, while his wife, Raquel, serves as its secretary and treasurer.

....Prosecutors state that between the dates of January 2022 and December 2024, Orduna Plumbing hired 253 people to work for the company. Out of that total, only seven were in the U.S. legally and permitted to work....

 Dollars to doughnuts they were turned in by OTHER plumbing contractors.

Good.  Life inside Club Fed is what they deserve.

And by the way:  that arrest is a warning flag. 

Zelenskiy Demands 'Get Out of Jail Free' Card

 Trump has proposed a 28-point 'peace plan' for the Ukie/Russkie war, and has told Zelenskiy to sign it or else.  Or so we're told.

Zelenskiy has thoughts on that.

... Ukraine President Zelensky is demanding that he receive full amnesty for any stolen financial aid or military aid. He wants the audit in the peace plan removed....

His #2 criminal-assistant has already fled to Israel, (of all places !!) because Israel will not extradite him to the US for prosecution.  Reports are that he left with $100 million or so; rumors are that the thefts are actually in the $$BILLION range.    

(Just remember that Israel is the US' Greatest and Bestest Ally Evah!!, you miserable flyover-country suckers.)

Zelenskiy should be audited and then placed in a shredder after the US gets all its money back. 

Laugh-Line From Joel Brennan

Brennan is going to run for Gov as a Democrat.

He worked for Evers and is proud of Evers' spending of CoVid dollars, (such as that was).

For laughs, read this:

 When asked if his administration would be a continuation of Evers' eight years in power, Brennan said he'd continue some aspects of Evers' leadership...   "I would want it to be an extension of the integrity, of the openness, of the communication...

Oh.

You mean the "integrity and open....communication" of having a secret email account to keep Tony Evers' plotting and planning out of sight of taxpayers and the press?

Cool, Joel.  We get it.

BTW, Fox6 never followed up with an Open Records request for that "Warren Spahn" account.

Ever ask yourself "Why?"  After all, they are "Highly Trained Professional Reporters" there, according to Teddy Perry..... 

Shootings Follow Tree-Lighting in Chicago

 O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,

That's where we do our shootings!

 

Nine people were shot, one of them fatally, in two different incidents following the lighting of the downtown Christmas tree Friday night in Democrat-run Chicago....

 Hark how the guns,

Sweet silver guns,

All bang away!

Santa better have bulletproof clothing. 

Republican Planning for '26 Mid-Terms: Republicans Lose (!)

Let's be honest about this.  The Establishment Republicans still hate Trump.  But he's President for a while, so they intend to lose the '26 mid-terms to make certain that none of his agenda is made into legislation.

You have noticed--right?--that only the Big Beautiful Bill has been enacted.  Which other of his EO's has been made into law?  Hmmmmmmm??

 ...The “anyone but Trump” operation is back in full swing despite the 2024 victory message.

Step #1 in the control process is to lose the 2026 election and put the Republican wing of the uniparty bird back into the minority.  Again, this isolates our people’s president.

However, they can’t just lose 2026 and call it a day.  They still need to manage the problem that President Trump represents for another three years.  There are Trump policies to undermine, Trump executive orders to let sit non-legislatively supported, and all of this inaction must take place while Trump supporters are distracted with maximum shiny things.

This is where the “political influencers” come into play as mercenaries and advanced operative messengers for a very useful dynamic to emphasize – the operation that began as Qatar vs Israel.

Tucker Carlson representing the face of JD Vance’s support network becomes a target for Mark Levin et al.  Candace Owens is labeled as the female face of Nick Fuentes, who, for some odd reason, is being algorithmically boosted by the same tech platforms that banned his account as an identified racist, extremist and antisemitic content producer....

You don't have to go far to find that game being played.  Over the past couple of months, my combox has been visited by a Sykes-Bot who has made it clear that Trump is a property of Israel.  It's a semi-literate bot which cannot spell "yarmulke", but hey......

 ...This Fuentes boosting, again not coincidentally by the same elements who attended that 2016 Sea Island confab including Google, began in July 2025, about a month prior to TPUSA head Charlie Kirk telling his pro-Israel friends (billionaire Bill Ackman) that the content messaging on behalf of the Netanyahu government was backfiring amid Gen-Z.  To wit, Netanyahu said, ‘not to worry’ my good friends of Israel, Larry Ellison and David Ellison, have things under control with TikTok, Twitter and Paramount. CBS’s Bari Weiss announced shortly thereafter....

The objective was--and is--to split Trump voters into two small factions so that the Establishment Republicans (see, e.g., Cruz, or maybe Rubio or DeSantis) can take back their control.  Watch Bush the Dumber's moves.

Meantime, when your Republican Congress-critter shows his face for "community listening", ask him/her/it which legislation they have written or co-sponsored which will put Trump's EO's into law.  Ask for three examples.

Be sure to record the side-steps, non-responses, and fumbling.  It will be fun! 

Gen. Kellogg OUT! Thank God!

 This announcement is very good for the USA.

 

Keith Kellogg, the U.S. special envoy to Ukraine, is leaving his post in January, a move that comes as the White House shops a proposal to end Russia’s war that would require major concessions from Kyiv.

A White House official, granted anonymity to discuss personnel moves within the administration, confirmed news of Kellogg’s departure Thursday. Reuters was the first to report on the special envoy’s plans....

Kellogg loves him some Ukies and perma-war.

We don't. 

'TelAviv' Levin Goes Over the Edge, KaBoom!

 For a while, one could put up with his shouting and raving.  But that became oppressive--to me--several years ago.

Now it appears that Mark 'Tel Aviv' Levin has simply lost his mind.

 ...[Megyn] Kelly recently scoffed that “literally Mark Levin was calling me a Nazi two weeks ago.”

“That term is grossly overused, it is a joke now, and because of f*ckers like him, they’ve taken a term that has actual teeth to it, and they’re working on diminishing that one, too. It used to be a leftist tactic, with the word racist and bigot. Now, it’s a right-wing tactic by guys like Mark Levin, who have lost it — actually, truly lost it, and need, in my view, psychological help,” she said...

Levin categorically denied that claim.

Too bad it's on tape, Marky-Mark:

... I don’t know where this is going. I don’t know where this Jew hatred from the Marxists, the Islamists, the neo-Nazis, the grifters, I don’t know where they’re pulling us and pushing us. What do they want to do with American Jews? What do they want to do? Where are they taking this country? They’re destroying it. [Tucker] Carlson, [Candace] Owens, Kelly, [Steve] Bannon, the rest of them and others....

Naturally, PowerLine cited the MediaIte article which defends Levin.

Irony alert:  Levin is sponsored by.............TaDa!!............HERITAGE FOUNDATION.

 

H1-B and Massive Fraud in India

 You can watch the video but here's the very short precis:

 ...Jessica Vaughan, Director of Policy Studies, sits down with Mahvash Siddiqui, a U.S. Foreign Service officer, to discuss systemic fraud in the H-1B visa program. Speaking in her private capacity, Ms. Siddiqui shares firsthand experiences from her time as a consular officer in Chennai (Madras), India – one of the world’s largest H-1B visa-processing posts – where U.S. officials adjudicated thousands of nonimmigrant visas, including 220,000 H-1Bs and 140,000 H-4 visas for their family members in 2024 alone.

The episode highlights alarming patterns of fraud affecting the H-1B program, including forged degrees, falsified employment credentials, and the role of third-party staffing companies in bypassing the program’s original rationale of admitting skilled workers to meet temporary shortages. While the Trump administration implemented changes aimed at reorienting the program toward more qualified applicants, Siddiqui emphasizes that widespread political pressure and a very effective Indian lobby here in the U.S. have often undermined quality control....

IOW, Trump gave the Indians all the room they needed to keep things going as they were.

Ask anyone in IT:  the amount of lying and cheating by Indian "programmers" is astounding.  

By the way:  if you've had problems with the Wisconsin DMV's car-title system, ask your Ass'y Rep why the State is contracting with India-based IT contractors. 

Musk vs. God

Elon Musk is a typical genius; disconnected from a lot of realities.

 Working will become optional in just 20 years thanks to advances in artificial intelligence and robotics, Elon Musk has claimed.

The world’s richest man said the decision to work will become like a hobby such as sport or growing your own vegetables....

Good luck with that, Elon.

More Gambling!! Just What WI Needs!!

 Seems like Robin Vos and the gang had a new gambling route all figured out--until someone blew the whistle.  Plus:  a very curious "supporter" of the bill!

 Republican leaders on Wednesday, Nov. 19, pulled back a bill that would legalize online sports betting just hours before it was set to come up for a vote in the state Assembly.

The move came as top Republicans were getting criticized by some conservatives, including on talk radio, and as a right-leaning law firm signaled it would consider backing legal challenges to the bill if it became law.

Currently, gambling is illegal in Wisconsin. It is allowed in tribal casinos through federal law and the tribes' compacts with the state....

Who thinks Wisconsin citizens need a NEW way to gamble (so long as the Tribes get a piece of the action)??

... Introduced by Representatives August, Haywood, Dallman, Anderson, Behnke, Green, Gustafson, Kurtz, Mursau, Novak, Penterman, Prado, Sinicki, Stubbs, Wittke and Stroud;
cosponsored by Senators Marklein, Dassler-Alfheim, Feyen, Spreitzer and Testin...

Who else supports MO' GAMBLING?

The Milwaukee Brewers.  Ain't that interesting?

P.S.  Does gambling count in the "High Cost of Living" bitch-fest??   

Comey's Democrat Lawyers Lied. Shocked??

 Seems that the Comey indictment was legitimate.  His lawyers claimed otherwise--of course.

 

....court filing from the US Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of Virginia on Thursday noted the transcript of the Sept. 25 proceeding before Vaala “conclusively refutes” that there was an issue with the process “and establishes that the grand jury voted on — and true-billed — the two-count indictment.”

“[A]ny assertion that the grand jury ‘never voted on the two-count indictment’ is contradicted by the official transcript,” Halligan’s team responded in the new court papers — directly contradicting claims from Comey’s defense team in court that the charges were void....

Hang that SOB, then hang his lawyers. 

Feds Halt WI DMV CDL Cheating

 This should not come as a surprise at all.

 Federal investigators hit the brakes on what court records described as a scheme in the Milwaukee area to cheat in the process of obtaining licenses to drive some of the largest and most powerful vehicles on the roadways.

According to a complaint filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, an informant tipped off investigators with the U.S. Department of Transportation Office of Inspector General to a cheating operation on commercial learner's permit exams at at least 4 local DMV offices....

Indians, of course.  Ask anyone who works in IT--this bunch cheats ALL the time.

 ...The complaint identified Jaspreet Singh as an individual who orchestrated the scheme, which an investigator described during a Nov 10 preliminary hearing in federal court....

...Mr. Singh was basically the one who were recruited his friends and other associates within the South Asian Indian community, for the purpose of having them cheat and illegally obtain their commercial driver's license," U.S. Department of Transportation Special Agent John Modransky told the court. ...

They hid their Bluetooth earpieces under their "RELIGIOUS NECESSITY" turbans.

The reporter here should follow up, pressing DMV to re-test all the Indians who obtained CDL's in the last 2 years or so.  Will he?

Will DMV? 

Trump Helps US-Born Workers

 We knew it would come out eventually.

... a longer-term study ... shows that since Trump entered the White House and his policies started impacting the economy, the number of foreign born workers has slumped from a record 33.7 million in March 2025 to 32.1 million, a drop of 1.6 million. This has been offset by a slow but consistent increase in native-born workers which had been unchanged for six years since 2019 until the start of 2025, at which point it started to rise again, and has increased from 131.2 million in March 2025 to a new record high of 133.2 million in September....

Trump's work on H1-B admissions will bear fruit next year, too.

(It damn well has to work.)
