Trump, Like Lincoln, A Threat To An Established Institution

 

It has lately occurred to me that, much as Abraham Lincoln was considered an existential threat to the pro-slavery South, to the institution of slavery itself, and to the “Deep South State” (to coin a phrase), Donald Trump is seen as an equal threat to the longtime swamp creatures dwelling in and around the capital today. In fact, the similarities are striking.

While Democrats this go around haven’t fired on Fort Sumter, those who consider Trump a threat have fired on him. There was a plan to prevent Lincoln from taking office, much as there have been multiple plans to prevent Trump from doing the same. Sadly, you can bet that today’s Deep Staters will fight a figurative war with Trump and his supporters with the same zealousness and ferocity as the slaveholding, solidly Democrat South fought the free states. Democrats back then sought disunion by literally attempting to secede from it. And by attacking the northern states militarily. Today’s Democrats foment disunion by attempting to divide us by promoting CRT and DEI programs, reparations, and countless other policies, ideas, and programs.

Slavery, the “peculiar institution” of yesteryear, is not dissimilar to the monopoly on power, and indeed mental tyranny, that is the “peculiar institution” beloved of the modern Democrat party. Let us hope that freedom prevails again today.

As Lincoln said to his fellow Springfield residents upon leaving to take office in Washington, D.C., “Let us all pray that the God of our fathers may not forsake us now.”

As Trump prepares to take office next month, a similar prayer seems in order now.

Hillary, Soros To Be Awarded The Presidential Medal Of Freedom

 

Reportedly, ‘President’ Biden will soon present both Hillary Clinton and George Soros with the Presidential Medal of Honor. (I hope you have a barf bag nearby.) Talk about an abuse of power! Is John Hinckley, Jr. next in line for the prestigious award? He came within a half an inch of assassinating Ronald Reagan in 1981 but now lives on his own and has started his own record label! Maybe instead of Biden just granting 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed a plea deal, he could award him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, too. Perhaps Biden will even posthumously award Thomas Crooks the Presidential Medal of Freedom soon. Join the club, Crooks, you’d fit right in. Come to think of it, perhaps Biden and his handlers could bestow the Presidential Medal of Honor on Satan while they’re at it. Old Mephistopheles has been a long-time fan and partner of the Democrat Party since the time of slavery.

Tesla founder Elon Musk was among many on social media that weren’t happy about the reported decisions. He labeled them "a travesty” and shared a video clip of himself on Joe Rogan's podcast saying that Soros "fundamentally hates humanity." Musk elaborated by noting of Soros: "He's doing things that erode the fabric of civilization. You know, getting DAs elected who refuse to prosecute crime.”

There is a difference between being non compos mentis and being possessed by a deranged and demonic desire to reward the most dangerous and despicable anti-American prevaricators extant or otherwise. These decisions reek of Obama-- with perhaps a little Adam Schiff or Nancy Pelosi thrown in for bad measure.

Hillary Clinton is to decency and transparency as Josef Mengele is to Judaism. George Soros, the Hungarian bagman, funds a significant percentage of all the Leftist and anti-American groups and activities in existence. Awarding PMFs to characters like these is demeaning to the American people and all those who value honesty, integrity, and America itself.

These actions perfectly illustrate today’s Democrat Party— with its simultaneous worship of depravity and rabid pursuit of power.

                       

 

 

Music Star Won't Write Songs For Those With Light Skin Colors

 

What’s dividing us and poisoning our culture?

Oh, I don’t know, possibly something like this: Singer/songwriter ‘Muni Long’ recently posted a video clip on Instagram in which she adamantly touted her refusal to write songs for “non-melanated” artists.

The ‘artist,’ whose real name is Priscilla Renea Hamilton, stated that a high-ranking executive at Atlantic Records suggested that she write soul music for non-Black performers. Long ranted: “Me to the president of Atlantic asking me to write ‘soulful’ songs for non-melanated artists. ‘Fuck no! And imma stand on that!’” Sadly, though I couldn’t pick her out in a crowd of two, Long is apparently a Grammy-winning star.

If Long doesn’t want to write songs for non-Blacks, she should understand if the non-melanated don’t want to attend her shows. And if Caucasians don’t want to work for her. Or wait on her in restaurants. Etc., etc., etc. What if the non-melanated don’t wish to sing for a Black audience? Or Asians don’t want to cook for Native Americans? Or Capricorns don’t want to cut the hair of a Mexican? Or Catholics don’t wish to operate on a gay person? Or vice-versa? What if a comic doesn’t want to tell jokes to an audience of darker-skinned people? What if a grocer refuses to sell food to someone/anyone because of their skin color?” What if …well, you get the idea. Unbridled diversity is a recipe for strife in the best of cases. When race and sexual/gender identity are as relentlessly and needlessly emphasized as they are in as diverse a nation as modern-day America, that nation can be essentially destroyed in no time flat.

Are identity politics and intersectionality good ideas?

“Bleep no! And imma stand on that!”

 

Biden And Allstate? We Are Not In Good Hands!

 

There is tone deaf and then there is Joe Biden. And Allstate CEO Tom Wilson.

Biden, towards the end of a press conference on the New Orleans terror attack that killed fifteen people, said he needed to “get this damn thing done” because the game was about to start. It was obviously quite an annoyance to him to have to update the nation he supposedly still leads on the deadly attack. What really matters is that he gets to watch the whole game.

Allstate CEO Wilson issued a video statement aired during the early stages of the Sugar Bowl, for which Allstate was the official corporate sponsor. He addressed the attack, stating that “tragedy struck the New Orleans community.” No, a vehicle driven by a radicalized convert to Islam struck the New Orleans community, Tom. And, unlike a tornado, hurricane, or flood, this was a deliberate, man-caused catastrophe. Wilson then suggested that we Americans have to overcome our "addiction to divisiveness and negativity." What the bleeping hell does that have to do with the attack, CEO Asshat? I’m pretty sure those killed were not addicted to divisiveness and weren’t obsessed with negativity, given that they were celebrating the birth of the new year…in a very diverse urban area. But Wilson still wasn’t done being an idiot. He actually went on to state that we must "accept people's imperfections and differences." Like their addiction to radical Islamic terror and desire to slaughter as many innocent men, women, and children as they can? Those “imperfections and differences?!”

Diversity is not a ‘value.’ Tolerance is not a ‘virtue,’ at least not necessarily. Neither are ‘Godly.’ As Mark Steyn notes, diversity is where countries go to die. And, as I have often stated, you get what you tolerate. Tolerance of theft, arson, rape, incest, mass murder, etcetera, is bad. And it is disobedience to God. Diversity of incompetence, illness, sloth, and evil is not a good thing.  Our elites’ current focus on diversity and tolerance, to the near exclusion of anything and everything else, could quite possibly lead to our destruction.

Allstate’s commercials urge us all to sign up with the company to be “better protected from mayhem.” Wouldn’t have helped those killed on Bourbon Street. Whatever their imperfections and differences.

Biden and Allstate? We’re not in good hands.

 

Terror In New Orleans (And Elsewhere)-- Enough Is Enough

 

 As per usual in these cases, FBI officials reportedly originally would not say that the Bourbon Street Massacre was a terror attack. What the hell else would you call it, a calm and kindly attack? Was this, perhaps, a hate crime? No, of course not, those can only be committed by whites against blacks. It was certainly not a love crime, therefore it must just have been a regular crime, right? For God's sake, can't anyone in the government-media-complex tell the truth for once? No matter who was responsible for the attack, or “why” they did it, it was obviously a terrorist attack.

However, President Biden tweeted out a hearty “Happy New Year” well after the attack took place. Later, he stated that “nobody should jump to conclusions” as to why the attack took place.

Had the attack been perpetrated by a so-called “far right extremist,” that is all we would be hearing about for days on end in the mainstream news. And how we must deal with the existential threat these mythical monsters pose. However, attacks perpetrated by Islamist radicals are typically blamed on the weapon they used to carry out the attack. After a December 20 terrorist attack at a German Christmas market, mainstream media headlines such as “Car runs over pedestrians” and “Vehicle kills and injured dozens” were rampant. So now, another vehicle, a gas-guzzling SUV, has plowed into revelers celebrating the new year in the Big Easy. Time for a ban on automobiles?

I am so bleeping sick of these attacks and so bleeping sick of the two-tiered way they are portrayed. Combine these with the open-border-related human trafficking, sex trafficking, drug running, violent crime-- and the Venezuelan gangs coming across our border to terrorize a number of our major cities, and it almost appears our way of life is under sustained assault, doesn’t it? Not that anyone in our current government is going to do a damn thing about it, other then gravely warn us against “Islamophobia.” These attacks, like all other evils, will never stop as long as we tolerate them. Period. Hopefully, those in the incoming Trump administration will be true to their promises and start dealing with them forcefully and effectively.

Shamsud Din Jabbar, the alleged perpetrator of the New Orleans slaughter, was, like Nidal Hasan at Fort Hood, a veteran of the US Army. Yet, the vehicle he was driving reportedly sported an ISIS flag, not the Stars & Stripes. No word yet as to whether he shouted the ubiquitous “Allahu Akbar” as he mowed down the innocent celebrants. This is what happens when you purge the US military of those who love their country. This is what happens when you purge the military of patriotic Christian “extremists.” You see, Christian “extremists” don't routinely drive vehicles over as many innocent people as they can. Christian “extremists” don't try to kill their fellow citizens. They try to protect and defend them. This in marked contrast to the other type of extremists, the Islamic ones coming out of the US military. The Muslim extremists of the Obama-Biden military to be precise.

In conjunction with the recent Islamic terror attacks in places like Belgium and Germany, and the ones before those, and the ones before those, might authorities discern a pattern here? Might they say so publicly?

Contra “The Big Guy,” I’m going to jump to a conclusion right now: we have a corrupt government and media, both of whom disdain the American people they are supposed to serve. Whether it's COVID-19, Russian collusion, Hunter Biden's laptop, Joe Biden's mental incapacity, Islamic terror, or drones swarming the skies above us, they prefer to prevaricate. The governments and media of many other Western nations are similarly debased, dishonest, and corrupt. They may believe, ala Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men, that we can't handle the truth. But the truth is, as they themselves have proven-- time and time again-- it is they who cannot do so.

And it is they who are an existential threat to Bourbon Street, Brussels, or Berlin.

 

 

Canadians Exterminating Themselves

 

‘Medically-assisted dying’ accounted for an incredible 4.7% of all deaths in Canada in 2023. The BBC reported, “The country’s fifth annual report since euthanasia was legalized in 2016 showed around 15,300 people underwent assisted dying last year after being successful in their applications.” The ‘Beeb’s’ report went on to say, “The vast majority” of those folks were facing a death deemed “reasonably foreseeable” due to severe medical conditions such as cancer. Reasonably foreseeable? Everyone’s death is reasonably foreseeable.

96% of those offed were white, even though those rascally Caucasians account for only about 70% of Canada’s population. So, The Great White North is getting less white over time. Maybe the previously abundant white supremacists are being overcome with existential guilt.

If I am reading and interpreting the numbers correctly, this puts medically-assisted dying up there with influenza, diabetes, alzheimers, and cirrhosis of the liver as causes of death for Canadians. And, ironically enough, above suicide—though medically-assisted dying is essentially a form of suicide.

Does medically-assisted dying now kill more Canadians every year than does cold weather, snow, and ice? Hard to believe. Canucks may be embarking on societal suicide. Or, given today’s proclivity for assisted suicide, sterilization, abortion, and trans treatments and surgeries, eventual self-extermination.

This macabre reality has come about during the anything but benevolent rule of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Thankfully, Trudeau is now roughly as popular as Lyme Disease or early onset dementia in the nation Mark Steyn has dubbed the ‘Deranged Dominion.’ (If Trudeau were to be diagnosed with early onset dementia, it may help to explain some of his heretofore inexplicable actions and comments.)

Trump (laughingly?) proposed to Trudeau that, if the latter didn’t think his country could survive a potential 25% tariff, Canada should become the 51^st state of the American union, with Trudeau as its ‘governor.’ Which prompted the Babylon Bee to suggest that Trump might name the new state “Gay North Dakota.” (Canadians or Americans, many of us aren’t worthy of Trump-- or The Babylon Bee.)

Note to Canadians: Hey hosers, take a deep breath, have a bite of back bacon and a sip of Molson…and stop trying to get rid of yourselves, eh?! You are good people. You just need to be a little less tolerant.

 

 

Borrowed Time

 

 Heading into my ‘golden years,’ and approaching the New Year, I have caught myself waxing philosophic of late. Upon reflection, it seems odd that young people, with everything in front of them (their greatest achievements, marriage, kids, etc.) tend to be careless and carefree, while those of us who are much older tend to be particularly careful, if not timid. (This after we have long been married, our kids have been raised and have flown the coop, and we may be retired.) At first glance, this appears to be the reverse of what would make sense and be prudent. On the other hand, one shouldn't want to significantly tamp down the exuberance of youth. Perhaps it would be better for those of us who are older, our days dwindling down to a precious few, to rekindle some of the spirit, the mindset, and inquisitiveness of youth.

And it is important for all of us to express gratitude for the good things in our lives, whatever they may be. Even if they are largely behind us now. This year we have something extra for which to be thankful: the election of Donald J. Trump. 45 will now become 47. Four more years. God willing.

Yet of all the gifts we have been given, time is the most important-- as nothing exists without it, and none of us know exactly how much of it we have left. Especially those of us who have received troubling health diagnoses. Time is of the essence. That is certainly true.

There is an old cliche stating, “there is no time like the present.” That, too, is certainly true. But it is perhaps even more important for us to remember that…there is no present like time. Cherish it.

Here’s to auld lang syne. And times to come.

Happy New Year.

 

 

Science, Suppression, And DEI

 

Mollie Hemingway recently ‘tweeted’: "The Biden administration collectively spent $267 million to combat misinformation. Look at the increase in spending from 2017, when just $316,000 was spent on it.” She added, "We have federal agencies engaged in the suppression of speech and debate that the federal government disagrees with. That is in no way the job of the federal government to weigh in on what Americans are saying." Based on the chart accompanying her tweet, it appears that the feds spent a staggering $126.1 million to combat free speech in the high COVID year of 2021 alone. Much of what the government labeled ‘misinformation’ has, of course, proven true. No one was supposed to question ‘science’…or Dr. Fauci, who told us he was science.

But ‘science’ is not executive order or governmental coercion. Science is supposed to foster inquiry…and debate. Both hypotheses and findings are meant to be questioned every step of the way. Science is not supposed to lead to censorship, suppression, and repression. Nor is it supposed to have an ideological agenda. Quite the opposite. Yet some with an ideological agenda are ironically effectively attempting to take science back to the days before The Age of Enlightenment. Not willing to let a (manufactured) crisis go to waste, the Biden administration first blinded us with science (in the guise of Dr. Fauci), and then it bludgeoned us with it.

And now it wants to stuff it full of DEI.

Recent reports indicate that the Biden administration has essentially ordered the federal government to consider ‘indigenous knowledge’ when implementing various rules and regulations. To wit, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Administrator Rick Spinrad had this to say via a media release: “NOAA is excited to team up with the American Indian Higher Education Consortium to accelerate information-sharing aimed at building climate resilience, adaptation and co-production of knowledge in communities across the United States and tribal nations. Indigenous Knowledge has made it possible for Indigenous Nations to persist and thrive for millennia. These knowledge systems are needed more than ever to inform NOAA and our nation’s approach to environmental stewardship.”

I have great respect for Native Americans and their history, but assorted non-Indigenous nations have persisted and thrived for long periods of time, as well. Europeans, in fact, built castles more often than, say, tepees or wickiups, and invented many things that greatly benefited mankind, including Capitalism.

Nonetheless, Biden issued a memo in November of 2022 that directed more than two dozen federal agencies to apply ‘Indigenous Knowledge’ to ‘decision making, research, and policies,' according to a post by Joseph Simonson in The Washington Free Beacon. Simonson said that same memo called on agencies to speak with ‘spiritual leaders’ and reject ‘methodological dogma.'

So, the NOAA is now expected to rely in part on ‘Indigenous Knowledge.’ Ever notice how Native Americans never get caught out in the rain? And that their crops are always bountiful no matter the weather? What other agencies are to consider Indigenous Knowledge in their ‘decision making, research, and policies?’ NASA, perhaps? I mean, it was only a fluke that Native Americans didn’t get to the moon first…even though they, too, have opposable thumbs. Right?

Common-sense is not rocket science. But we may not have either soon.

All that said, I will take Indigenous Knowledge—and integrity—over ‘progressive’ science and the likes of Dr. Fauci. Any day.

 

 

 

 

 

There Is No Pardoning The Biden Administration

 

This is going to be controversial to many, but I am going to tell it like I see it, so damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead.

The Biden administration, set up as it was by the Obama administration, has been a clear and present danger to the United States of America. In almost every way imaginable. It has tanked an economy that otherwise was on the way to (an almost inevitable) rapid, post-pandemic recovery, causing pain to countless American families. Speaking of the pandemic, its ludicrous lockdown policy, and a host of other counterproductive and destructive policies, caused immeasurable physical, mental, and emotional harm to millions of people—and summarily destroyed many small businesses, particularly restaurants. It fostered a growing oligarchy by ensuring certain government-approved giant corporations prospered while the small businesses were devastated. It nourished this budding fascism even as it took every opportunity to baselessly label Donald Trump and his supporters as ‘fascists.’ Similarly, it incessantly talked of “saving our democracy” even as it tried to destroy it by pushing for the end of the Electoral College and the filibuster, supporting the advent of Congressional representation for Washington, D.C., urging the granting of statehood to Puerto Rico, and, most egregiously, going to any and all lengths to get rid of its chief political opponent, Donald J. Trump. It is still doing all it can to obstruct the will of the people, as was evident in its post-election auctioning off materials for the border wall for pennies on the dollar, as well as in placing various other roadblocks in front of the incoming administration. (In other words, it is doing everything possible to counteract the will of the people. Doesn’t sound very democratic to me.) Leaving the border wide open for years has created the greatest current-- and latent-- security threat the nation has ever faced. Period.

In colluding with the social media giants to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story, or with foreign agents to concoct the Russian-collusion hoax, Democrats have shown, time and again, they will do anything to attain and retain power. The Biden administration made that abundantly clear…seven ways from Sunday.

In its constant use of lawfare and its “accountability for thee but not for me” perversion of the justice system, it has created a two-tiered system of justice that is deeply anti-American and monstrously pernicious. And that is troubling—and frightening—to most Americans.

The Biden administration has helped make a mockery of common sense—if not of reality itself-- with its official inability to define what a woman is, and to simultaneously approve of ‘gender reassignment’ surgeries and procedures (even for the very young)…and biological men in women’s locker-rooms, bathrooms, and on their sports teams. It has done grievous damage to our culture—and unity—by endlessly promoting the absurd ideologies of DEI and CRT.

Its unwillingness to ever be available, accountable, or transparent is only matched by its overwhelming desire and propensity to lie to the very citizens it is supposed to serve. Which we have seen in its attempts to protect itself, smear Trump and his supporters, give a pass to the Chinese spy balloon, and in its flat-out refusal to tell Americans anything resembling the truth about the drone fiasco that has been ongoing for over a month. The non-answers and gibberish that has spewed from the mouths of ‘government officials,’ has been truly mind-blowing…on this and numerous other matters.

As if all of this wasn’t enough, its foreign policy may yet lead to our destruction. It essentially surrendered to goat-herders in Afghanistan, leaving behind billions of dollars of high-end military equipment, more than a dozen dead Americans, and our reputation and dignity. It has bizarrely coddled Iran while playing hardball with Israel, the only liberal democracy in the Middle East. And it seems almost determined to get us directly involved in a shooting war with Russia, if not a nuclear one.

To me, this is far worse than incompetence, more than malfeasance.

To me, it spells T-R-E-A-S-O-N.

Were this an age of reason, what other conclusion could be reached?
