A Warning for WI Dems

The Wisconsin Democrat (DSA) Party wants to institute State-paid "Medicare" for illegals.

Fine.  But here's a warning from Colorado, which did exactly that.

 Colorado Democrats and immigration activists cheered after Gov. Jared Polis (D.) signed a signature 2022 health care law providing coverage to children and “pregnant persons” living in the United States illegally. Four years later, Polis, now a lame duck, is calling to gut the Cover All Coloradans program in his final budget proposal in an attempt to address the state’s spiraling Medicaid costs, and left-wing groups aren’t happy....

 ...Polis released his budget on the eve of the midterm elections—one day after the legally mandated deadline to do so—and proposed $600 million in state Medicaid cuts. He called Medicaid’s growth “unsustainable” and told reporters it was on track to “crowd out everything else, including education.”...

Huh.  Choose one:  Cover the illegals, or pay the teachers.

We know how THAT will turn out. 

 

Did Microsoft Use AI To Update Outlook??

Microsoft's Outlook email system has been down for almost 24 hours and is likely to be down for another 24--or more.  

It's not an attack, says Microsoft.

Well........there's room to speculate that MS used Claude AI to write update code....

Heh. 

How Somalis Handle Problerms

If you're surprised at this story, you are an idiot.

 A Somali-born historian who researched the role of Rep. Ilhan Omar's father in the bloody regime of dictator Siad Barre found his trip to Minnesota canceled this week, allegedly due to the potential for clan violence....

 ...Ali Gaashaan, the president of the Somali Hero Awards, denied Ingiriis's version of events in texts to the DCNF. Gaashaan said that he "has never heard threats of violence against any critic" of Omar....

BUT: 

...Presented with a report by Alpha News detailing online threats by a man tied to Omar, Gaashaan alleged that Alpha News and the DCNF have "an extreme right-wing agenda." Asked why Ingiriis's participation in the event was canceled, Gaashaan did not reply....

Time for Trump & Co. to eject all of them.  Helicopters. 

"Friends & Family" Deals at White House.....Ugly

 If you haven't noticed that Trump is "all about the MONEY," you haven't been paying attention.

But it's only during TrumpTwo that it has clearly become a very serious problem.  For openers....

...In May, Secretary of State Marco Rubio sent President Donald Trump and top Cabinet members a classified memorandum detailing the relationship between the Huangs and the intelligence indicating that Alice Huang was a Chinese spy. The White House directed the Commerce Department to put Alice Huang’s Megaspeed on the entity list of companies that pose national security concerns. Lutnick refused this request in May; he refused a second attempted crackdown order from Trump in August; and on Nov. 5, Lutnick reportedly stonewalled Trump again. And evidently, this wasn’t because Lutnick knew too little. Rather, the Commerce Department spent months last year conducting an investigation into Megaspeed and specifically whether it was illicitly smuggling Nvidia chips into China, only for Lutnick’s direct underling, Jeff Kessler, to invite Nvidia to reach out to Commerce about the case, bringing the department’s inquiry to an effective end. ...

The Washington Examiner is NOT a Salon/Democrat/DSA outfit, by the way.  

It is further reported that both Massie (R-KY) and Khanna (D-CA) dumped Invidia stock just before this story broke.   Hmmmm.

There are rumors that Don Jr. is also grifting millions by investing in companies which--suddenly--are landing large Government contracts. 

I think prison is a good remedy for this.

Side-Note:  are the renewed attacks on JDVance connected to these.....ahhhhh.....eruptions? 

Schimming Keeps His Job, Ignores the Elephant....

You'll notice that Brian Schimming, chair of the Wisconsin Republican Party, intends to keep his job; he does not utter the words "War on Iran" (nor "War in Ukraine") when placing blame for the demolition of Republicans in Wisconsin.

 ...Schimming acknowledged that the national political climate and voters' concerns about kitchen-table issues contributed to the GOP's losses. He says the party has learned lessons it can carry into the next election cycle.

“Certainly, making sure that you're staying close to kitchen-table issues that voters have. I think it’s easy to nationalize some issues in some elections. I think that was certainly the case this time,” Schimming said....

Schimming made the rounds; he spent some time with the insufferable RadioMouth "ME!! ME!! MEEEE!!!" O'Donnell and did the same thing; no mention of Wars of Choice.

But we all know better. 

MPS: 'Less Kids, So Gimme Mo' MONEY!!'

 The Milwaukee Public Schools are educating less than half of the eligible children in Milwaukee, and the decline in student numbers is long-standing.

But at the same time, MPS has increased its tax levy--by a lot--as demonstrated by no less than Mayor Cavalier Johnson (!)

 

...Milwaukee Public Schools $320.2 million in 2023; $414.8 million in 2024, increase of 29.5%...

That increase is BEFORE the schools' $252 million referendum allowing $60++million/year in additional property-tax revenue.

Meantime, 

...Going back only six years to the 2020-21 school year, MPS reported an enrollment of 62,595. This year, MPS' enrollment is down to 53,922 -- a 14% drop over that six-year period.

More than a third of that decline happened over the past year, as MPS reported a 5.8% enrollment decline from the 2025-26 school year....

The repeal of Act 10 will not significantly affect taxes in Milwaukee, because MPS "management" never took health insurance and pension matters off the table; that is, the Teachers' Union in Milwaukee still gets whatever they want.

Next?

They'll get more from taxpayers in Altoona, Neenah, Two Rivers, and Elkhorn.  Their (D) pals now running the State budget ripoff game will see to that.  

It's like your utility bills.  No matter what you do to minimize the cost, the cost keeps going up.  It's the Democrat Party Way.

Religion of Peace: "Kill the Infidel!!"

 Apparently "peace" has alternate meanings in the Muslim world.

 

An Egyptian man who converted to Christianity faces the death penalty after leaving Islam.

As LifeSiteNews previously reported, Said Abdelrazek stands accused of promoting ideas and beliefs that are allegedly “harmful to national unity and social peace” as well as “showing contempt for Islam and challenging its fundamental principles.” However, human rights organizations, including Amnesty International and Coptic Solidarity, report that he is being unjustly persecuted for his conversion to the Christian faith....

Egypt says he's a terrorist.

The Coptics (Christians) say "terrorism" is not the reason; it's his conversion to Christianity. 

How Much Did Tiffany Burn?

 Interesting observation from KellyAnne Conway on the recent debacle.

... KELLYANNE CONWAY: We should talk about it again and again because it won’t stop unless people recognize there’s never been cheaper, less expensive to reach a voter Laura, and we never spent more money doing it.

And you know again in this town, coming candidates often lose, but consultants always win. They skim 1,520% off the top “legally.”

But you’re not reaching people where they are. We have screens, social media, streaming.

Nobody’s home watching these TV ads and by the way, come to billions of dollars on fire. And if you keep running that same ad, in my living room, now I’m angry with you.

You’re irritating me as if I didn’t hear you the first 50 times. So there’s a lot to unpack there....

 We are on "social media" X now and then.  Have never seen a Tiffany ad there.  But we saw his ads a bazillion times on local teeeveee.  But we're not the target that the Pubbies needed.  That target was the young and disaffected--and they live on social media. 

Or at least, that's what it SHOULD have been. 

 

Illegally-Here RN Employed by Jesuit School

Does it surprise you to learn that the Jesuits employ this woman?

 A San Francisco professor and nurse has been held by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for almost two months, with former students urgently demanding her release.

University of San Francisco assistant professor Dr Ann Lawani, 39, was arrested at her home...

Naturally, the Left, the Press, and the Aggrieved Wealthy Mommies (AWFLs) went nuts.  But as usual, ICE had its reasons.

 ...The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said Lawani, from Nigeria, overstayed a visitor visa and had received a final order of removal in 2013.

'She received due process and was issued a final order of removal on August 6, 2013,' the DHS told ABC10.

Whoops!!  Whoopsie!!  

"I forgot to leave when ordered to do so" or "I ignored the order because you'll never catch me and screw yourself!"  is not a legally-compelling case, sweetie. 

Buh-Bye! 

It Has Arrived!

 

Tucker's SCARY SCARY Fable

 We're half-fans of Tucker Carlson.  His interviews of certified Crazies are.....not a good thing.

Nor is this silliness:

 

Americans’ collective credit card debt soared to yet another record high on Tuesday, climbing 4.2% from last year to $1.29 trillion in total, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s latest household debt report.

The average credit card balance per consumer now stands at $6,678, up 2.4% year over year, a separate quarterly credit industry insights report from TransUnion found. The number of people with credit cards also rose 2% to 178 million, and the average interest rate on a new credit card is 24%, according to LendingTree data....

 

OMG!!!  CALL OUT THE ARMY!!!!  DOOM!  DOOM!!!! DOOM!!!!!!

 

Careful readers will note that inflation over the last year has been about 4%, meaning that the DOOM DEBT INCREASE Tucker writes about is..............nothing at all--and the "average" debt is LESS than inflation for the same period--which, to anyone with common sense, is good news.

We are NOT fans of credit cards.  But they can be useful.  Tucker's silliness?  Not always useful. 

Hey, David!! Governing Is Hard!!

David Crowley is going to find out that governing is a lot harder than throwing bullshit at the plebes.

 More from Crowley on doing away with the Electoral College: “This is an opportunity for us to get with it to the times of where we are, to where if you win the popular vote, if you win the majority of those votes, it should go towards that individual who won that state.”  --Scott Bauer

 So Crowley appears--APPEARS--to be saying that he does NOT support doing away with the Electoral College.

Unfortunately for Crowley, both his Ass'y and Senate leaders (vicious women, by the way), think exactly the opposite.  And one of them let him know, in no uncertain terms, that he should STFU, Sit the F Down, and let HER tell HIM how things are going to go.

Maybe the best thing Crowley will get from his election is a better job for his wife. 

Shakespeare Coulda Told You About Barnes' Suit

This will be a pleasant diversion before the (D) quad-fecta (Ass'y, Senate, Gov, and SCOWI) completely demolishes the State of Wisconsin....

 A former candidate for Wisconsin governor filed a defamation lawsuit against Journal Sentinel, Inc. on Tuesday, Nov. 10.

Former Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes is disputing the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's reporting in two articles published on July 30, the same day he dropped out of the race for governor....

 Hmmmm.  Why would the J-S defame a Lefty?  They're on the same side of EVERY policy matter, right?

 ...The lawsuit also indicates a Journal Sentinel political reporter had previously been involved with Barnes. When the campaign discovered this, it was disclosed to The Journal Sentinel and acknowledged. The journalist was removed from the story, and the lawsuit states that they were told other reporters would "re-report" portions of the story. The lawsuit states it was published later that day.

"The Journal Sentinel did not disclose the conflict to its readers. The public was not told that a reporter who participated in reporting on Barnes’s sexual relationships had herself maintained a sexual relationship with him," according to the lawsuit....

Cosgrove, and later, Shakespeare:

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

It is absolutely delicious to see the J-S taken down on a maxim written in 1697. 

 

Our Democrat-Bishop-Warmongers (!!)

A story you did NOT learn in your US History classes.

Yes, you knew that Wilson double-crossed the voters (just as Trump did) about WWI.  Here's the part you didn't learn:

... After the election, Cardinal Gibbons ignored the pleas of Pope Benedict XV to bring an early end to the European war. Instead, the Primate of America threw his support, and that of the American Catholic hierarchy, behind Woodrow Wilson’s war to “make the world safe for democracy.”...

 The Democrats have been perverting "safe for democracy" since 1916--and the US Bishops have been perverting the Faith to support Democrats ever since.

Great. 

Bones of St Nicholas (Santa Claus) Destroyed. Hmmmm.

Not widely reported in the USA, for some reason or another.....

 

French police have arrested a suspect who allegedly stole and burned the bones of St. Nicholas, bishop of Myra, from a basilica in Lorraine on Oct. 28....

 ...The police immediately opened an investigation into the incident. The alleged theft occurred at the Basilica of Saint-Nicolas-de-Port in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department of Lorraine, according to the Brussels Signal.

French police identified the suspect, who has not publicly been named...

Not named by the utterly-PC French cops.

That raises...........suspicions..........right?

St Nick is also known as Santa Claus. 

ONE Cardinal Has--ahhhhhh---Manhood

 This Cardinal has been through the ChiCom mill, so he has courage.  No Fear!

 Cardinal Joseph Zen, bishop emeritus of Hong Kong, in a blog post last week, reflecting on the fruits of the Second Vatican Council, called on Pope Leo XIV to put a stop to the Synod on Synodality and condemned the initiative’s “hidden agendas” on LGBT ideology, female “ordination,” and clerical celibacy.

In his blog post, translated into English on November 6, Zen argued that the Second Vatican Council has not been sufficiently fruitful, namely because it is under “constant attack” by those trying to use it to justify reforms contrary to the faith....

 ...Zen called on Pope Leo to put an end to the Synod on Synodality and these hidden agendas, as well as sending Cardinal Mario Grech, the secretary general of the Synod of Bishops, and Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich, S.J., who was the General Relator of the Synod, on a “long vacation,” and remove Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández as prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith....

Sharp contrast to some other Cardinals (one from the USA) who make ineffective legalistic bleating noises while collecting gifts from the Faithful who hope to see orthodoxy restored in Rome.

Pray for Cdl. Zen.  The ChiComs are not his only enemy, and the enemies in Rome are actually more deadly. 

JDVance the Evil Evil??

Harsanyi's bafflegab about JDVance's economics is--fortunately--contradicted by all the major economic indicators.  The principal problem with the Trump economy is Bidenflation, combined with Trump's penchant for deficit spending--and The Wars.

The Wars are exactly why Harsanyi is compelled to harm Vance.  Harsanyi is a Russia-hater (see the first war) and he is a special pleader for the country benefiting from Trump's second war.  Vance was an early opponent of the War on Persia, and remains so today.

You need look no further than the masthead on his publisher to know about Harsanyi, but knowing that he was a GWB Administration figure helps.

But for real economic facts--including the SUCCESS of the tariffs in re-shoring industry to the US--look at the body of work of Tonelson.  It is noteworthy that Tonelson shares Harsanyi's like for the War on Persia--but Tonelson will not make up lies about Vance

Medicare For All.....and National Bankruptcy, Too!!

 Ticker 's been foaming at the mouth about this forever.  But he's been right about it forever, too.

.... Last fiscal year (ending September 30th) CMS spent $2.733 trillion, up 9.98% (there's that 10% number!) from last year.  Prescription drug spending was up an astounding 22%.  Physicians are whining that their payments are actually down in inflation-adjusted funds which may be true but physician spending in Medicare was up 6.99% last fiscal year which is wildly higher than published inflation.  So who's stealing the money?  The government is spending it and the doctors are not getting it -- someone is stealing it.

Medicaid spend was up 8.2% -- again, wildly above inflation.  That's only part of it since Medicaid pays roughly half at the federal level with the states having to post up the rest.  Who is stealing the money?

This is the very same "Medicare for all" provider set and government funding set that the Democrats will now put forward as "the answer" and try to find a way to force into law.  But doing so will take the balance of the roughly $5.5 trillion in medical spend last fiscal year, the $3 trillion of it that is not currently federal, and force it onto the federal balance sheet.

May I remind you that the additional $3 trillion will all be deficit spending because that is more than all personal income taxes and eight times the total of corporate income tax.  In other words no, "tax the rich" is a lie unless you intend to more than double the current tax rates.

Now perhaps you can try that, but if you don't manage to pull that off then you have an immediate 13% inflation rate....

 Watch this play out.  Democrats will enact "Medicare for All" and are likely to corral the votes necessary to override Trump's veto. BUT....they will not enact it until very late in Trump's term, meaning that they get to brag right through the '28 Presidential election (assuring a (D) President's election" before the roof collapses and the whole cabin goes down the river in the flood.

It's gonna be very ugly. 

To The Screechers.....

Yes, the "righty" screechers.  You know who you are.

 

A Warning About Social Media

If you think that a nom-de-plume like "Dad29" is a cover, put that out of your high-trust mind right now.

Also, if you think that, since you do NOT use social media for political rants, but you did purchase a MAGA hat, you are in the clear, put THAT out of your high-trust mind right now because you are one of 640,000 peeps on whom Jack Smith has 'the goods,' and Jack Smith does not have the only copy of that spreadsheet.

Specifically on social media:  

...What I discovered in this experience was that DHS, and by extension DOJ/FBI and the January 6 investigators, had direct administrative level backdoors into all social media platforms.

Overlay the Twitter files now, and then expand your thinking….

In their quest to prove that I owned a Red Ferrari, traveled to Michigan and had a hit-and-run accident, these investigators outlined to me how the United States Government, through their DHS authority, has employees, agents and contractors with open portals into all social media platforms.

Yes, the federal government is inside the mechanics of the systems (Twitter, Facebook, Meta, Instagram, Google, YouTube, WhatsApp, Zello, etc) and they have administrative access in real time to monitor, review, extract and evaluate everything, soup-to-nuts....

There is a 99/99% chance that those permissions remain active today; and a 99.5% chance that the information will be fed (by a friendly) to some Congressional committee run by DSA types.  The Deep State people never changed stripes just because Trump was elected three times.

Watch your 6.  We'll watch it for you when we can.  Share eyeballs.
