The ultimate ghosting.

Have a childhood friend who isn’t cool enough now for the crowd you’re running with? Ghost ’em.

Got a problematic boyfriend or girlfriend? Maybe one you found when you swiped left, swiped right, met for wine, had a fling, and now they’re inconvenient? Ghost ’em.

Run up against someone who makes you uncomfortable, who challenges your beliefs, who invites discourse not discord, but doesn’t agree with you? Ghost ’em.

Have a mother or a father, a sister or a brother, who’s cramping your style? Doesn’t like the friends you hang out with? The significant other or spouse you’ve chosen? Your lifestyle choices? Your politics? Mistakes you’ve made? Ghost ’em.

Have an unplanned pregnancy? Ghost it.

In this digital age that our entire generation is living through now – “generation” in the Biblical sense, meaning everyone alive from babies to grannies – we have all become conditioned to simply turning people off by ghosting them – blocking their calls, their texts, their emails, pretending that they don’t exist when they become a nuisance. It is all too easy to think that they are just a phone number, an email address, or an avatar and forget that a living heart beats behind their digital presence. You can ghost ’em by pressing a button, or once you’re too far gone down that path, by squeezing the trigger of a long-range rifle.

But it is becoming clear that the time in which this generation lives is most certainly the Tribulation. The Tribulation is, and always has been, all of life – frustrating, disappointing, unfair, difficult, but also exhilarating and wonderful. Each human being’s life is the Tribulation story from beginning to end. So humanity has lived in the Tribulation from the dawn of time, but now in the context of quickening events our universal Tribulation is coming to a point of existential crisis.

You can continue to live in Fakey World, the world of social media, of denying biology, of hating those who make you uncomfortable, of popping pills to solve problems, and of leading a cosmetic, materialistic fantasy which excludes those whose very existence challenges the way you want the world to be. Even friends. Even family. Just ghost ’em.

Or you can engage. You can embrace those who love you despite yourself. You can look them in the eye. You can find the point of shared humanity with them regardless of other differences.

It is time to choose sides. It is not about Republicans. It is not about Democrats. Christians or Jews or Muslims or Hindus or otherwise. Blacks or Whites or anywhere in between. It is about loving your neighbor, or not. It is about valuing the gift of Life for ourselves and everyone else, or not. It is about allowing Free Will, Free Speech, Sovereign Individuality, or not. And it is about protecting children, or not – perhaps the most important issue of our times if we as the human race are to have a future.

The only correct ghosting we should practice is seeking the Holy Ghost, the invisible, electric, radioactive spirit of Love which is God, whether you understand Him to be Jesus, or Yahweh, or Buddha, or the Cosmic Muffin.

And no, it is not someone else’s problem any more. It is up to you. Choose Love or Hate, Reality or Fakey World, and choose carefully. Your soul depends on it.

Preparing for the Meltdown

You are in for a big letdown if you approach politics and history like following a football team. Your team might have a good run or two but it is never going to win the Super Bowl. (Especially if “Q” has led you to follow the Tennessee Titans, a team that was snakebitten from the get-go if ever one was). Perhaps that is why so many people do not follow political news, do not vote, do not want to know about it.

Those people, unfortunately, are living in Fakey World. Even moreso than the ones who listen to Joe Scarborough or Sean Hannity and cheer mindlessly for the Blues or the Reds as if they were an NFL team. For politics (which is the making of history) is the weather of our lives and our children’s lives. You better know when to take your umbrella or a raincoat when you go out. You better not plan your exotic vacation during the monsoon season. And if you can do something about the weather, like vote for better weather, you best do so, teach your children to do so, and encourage those around you as well to do so.

In this way political life is slightly better than the weather. There’s not a dang thing you can do to change the weather, Green New Deal notwithstanding. But you just might be able to vote the bastards out of office, as just happened with the Biden junta last November.

Donald Trump: The 21 Century’s George Washington? Or Sulla?

Who? Sulla? Most people think that Julius Caesar was the Roman Empire’s first dictator. But in fact it was a remarkable man named Sulla.

Sulla was a fierce military leader who won several key contests and ended up appointed dictator by the Senate in the late Roman Republic of the early 1st Century B.C. He believed in the traditional republican values that had made Rome great and was distressed by how it was was going astray due to corruption. In a sort of “Make Rome Great Again” movement, he issued a number of fiats designed to get the Roman Republic back on track. As soon as he felt his work was done, setting an example for George Washington after his second term as President, Sulla retired to his plantation.

Like Trump’s feeling that God had spared him the assassin’s bullet to do great things in his second administration, Sulla believed that he had been spared by the gods to right the course of the Republic. Thus he dubbed himself “Sulla Felix,” which means Sulla the Lucky.

The problem was, Sulla’s fiats were roughly equivalent to Trump’s executive orders. The reforms he instituted did not outlive his dictatorship. The corrupt Senate and the rest of the government got right back to its former ways which, in a nutshell, amounted to making the rich richer and the common Roman, poorer.

Trump at the Crossroads

God willing Trump will succeed at forging, or in effect forcing, an end to the conflict in Ukraine. If he does, then he will have outwitted the Mephistopheles of Perversion, Pestilence, and War, Lindsey Graham. And God willing, Trump will succeed at reining in Netanyahu so that he stops attacking neighboring countries and just rescues the hapless Gazans from Hamas.

There is no doubt that Donald Trump is the greatest American of this century. He is smart and fearless and committed to winning for the American people. But if he only changes the downward spiral of American culture through a series of executive orders that can be undone by the next administration, or simply a changing of the majority in Congress, then he will go down as America’s Sulla.

Why Epstein Matters

Something is severely wrong with Trump’s repeated and continuing assertions that the Epstein matter is a hoax and his continual attacks on those who will not let the matter rest, even his allies, as “panickans.” What went on at Epstein’s island and other properties is real and to those who want America to break the bonds of special interests manipulating its destiny both within and abroad, it is emblematic of the Deep State and Globalist conspirators who want to bring America down.

No one seems to think that Trump is protecting his own hide as if he had participated in Epstein’s perversion. But clearly, unless he is playing chess on a level at which few believe he is even capable, he is protecting someone or something if not himself. This he must stop. The recent revelations of the perfidy of Bill Barr and Barr’s ties to the Bushes and the Clintons and Obama and the CIA and Mossad, make this more important than ever.

But most of us are mere voters. We can only do so much. It is up to Donald Trump to come clean, institute meaningful longlasting reforms through Congress, or go down in Nixonian disgrace. There is other trouble brewing and we best be prepared if Trump does not outwit the demons of the Left.

The Coming Meltdown

For decades now, the rich have been getting richer and the poor – or at least the “not rich” in America because with all the entitlements, it is almost impossible to be truly poor here – have had an increasingly smaller share of the pie. As the banks and money speculators in general have manipulated property and markets, housing prices have spiked and other basic assets that define independence – like cars, tools, weapons, and such – have gotten out of reach for more and more people. When you have to put your groceries on a credit card, you know you’re in trouble, and more and more people have been doing just that. The rampant, spiking inflation of the Biden term really hammered the nails shut on the coffins of many people’s aspirations for financial independence.

Especially the younger generations’, defined for the moment as anyone from 15 to 45. They have high standards of living (from their long time at home in the suburbs and at college) and low expectations of earning that sort of living themselves. In fact, their parents quite likely inherited that standard of living from their own parents, but there’s the old “shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves” thing, and today’s younger generation is the second “shirtsleeves” in that equation.

One big reason is debt from college. This is a terrible scourge. When this younger generation turned 18, everything was telling them they had to go to college and at the same time, “privacy” laws allowed them to lock their parents out of seeing their report cards and shaping their majors, while college advisors were working with the (newly federally driven) loan industry to have them sign on the bottom line, making them debt-slaves for years to come.

Forgiving all that debt is no solution, unfair to those who paid it off quickly and those who never took it, but the manifold stories of young adults well into their 30s still paying off college debt – or mainly interest on their college debt – are gobsmacking. And it is the reason that out of desperation they will listen to truly idiotic “influencers” like AOC and Beto and other rabble rousers.

Perhaps there could be a debt “trade-down.” Push military, or Americorps, or Peace Corps, or even law enforcement service in exchange for drawing down student loan debt?

Somebody better think of something to solve issues like this or civilization is about to be rocked by an immense amount of upheaval. The funny thing is, this witch’s brew is no different than issues which Sulla and then Caesar had to contend with in the late Roman republic. Somehow it is always about the monied classes squelching property ownership and opportunity for the non-monied classes. America solved that problem for about two centuries by enabling “the pursuit of happiness” aka social mobility for those who took advantage of opportunity.

It seems that when Trump talks about making America great again, that is what he is really trying to get us back to. God help him. Meanwhile, it is smart to recognize that he is a mere mortal, and not a young one at that. The smartest young people will prepare for troubled times ahead and hope and pray that all such preparations do is position them better for the hoped-for good times. At worst a French or Bolshevik revolution is coming; at best, something hard to imagine with AI and corporatism poised to scuttle anything that threatens their hegemony.

Wise Words from James Brown, the Godfather of Soul

“If you stay ready, you ain’t gotta get ready.” James Brown was also known as “the hardest working man in show business.” He had little tolerance for slackers and demanded the highest standards from his band members. His family was another matter. That is always the way it is with great people. As Jesus said, “A prophet is never appreciated in his own home town.” Never mind all that: Stay ready – you never know the time nor the place when being ready is just what is needed.

Stop living in Fakey World. It may be the hardest thing you do in this life, even harder than conquering a substance addiction, but if you want to hold onto your soul and live a life not as a slave but as a free and sovereign individual, put that dad-blasted phone down and walk away from it. It is, and is increasingly proving to be not just through common sense but evidenced by scientific studies, the Ouija Board of the the 21st Century. Put that phone away and you will never be poor.

Buy a piece of land. Any piece of land. Free and clear, with cash. If you look hard, you can still find an acre for less than $2,000. Trade it up and make a profit on it if you can, but always have that piece of land and you will never be poor.

Learn a needed skill. Even if you or your parents spent a gazillion dollars sending you to an elite or not-so-elite college, spend as much time as you can find outside of that underachieving job you might have to take a course at a community college or through a trade union or as a volunteer apprentice to learn something other people will pay for even in a pinch – mechanical or electrical or handyman work, short-order cooking or emergency medicine or roofing by God – and you will never be poor.

Have an escape plan. Even if you have to live in a city, be ready to drop everything and escape at a moment’s notice and you will never be poor.

Store your nuts. If you have extra money, fine, play with the stock market or Bitcoin or whatever, but you better be like a squirrel with enough hard assets to live on and trade with when the grid goes down. Then you will never be poor.

Eschew subscriptions. Heck, if you are wasting your money on Netflix and the Cloud or God forbid, PSLs or their ugly twin brother timeshares, you are already poor. Stop that! Otherwise you will always be poor.

Choose your spouse very, very carefully. All that glitters is not gold. “If you want to be happy for the rest of your life…” Just saying. True love means never having to say you are poor.

Go with God. Don’t be a fool. Seek. And you will find. And thus you will really never be poor.

Mighty Donald at the Bat

Oh, somewhere in this favoured land the sun is shining bright,
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light;
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout,
But there is no joy in MAGAville – mighty Donald has struck out.
-with apologies to Ernest Lawrence Thayer

True, there is not likely anywhere a little black book of Jeffrey Epstein’s clients. The Epstein file can’t even be stuffed into a bulging manila file folder to sit on Pam Bondi’s desk. For the lightly informed, there are various bits and pieces of journalism floating around on the internet that seem to make the whole Epstein issue a minor affair involving a list of a few people like Bill Clinton – and what surprise is there in Bill Clinton’s involvement in salacious things?

It is these lightly informed people whom Donald Trump wants to impress by comparing the “Epstein Hoax” to Russia, Russia, Russia and the other fake stuff that the DNC put out to bring Trump down in his first term.

No, if you were an investigator at the F.B.I., you wouldn’t start looking for a little black book. You would start with a question: How in the heck did this schmuck Epstein go from working in a bookstore to having billions of dollars, owning a private island among other expensive properties, and rubbing elbows with the rich and famous all over the world?

That would lead to other questions, like why was former federal Attorney General Bill Barr’s father the one that plucked Epstein out of the obscurity of the bookstore and set him up in the “financial services” business. And then why was Bill Barr himself the A.G. who ended up prosecuting Epstein? And why did Epstein’s consort, the awkwardly named and currently imprisoned Ghislaine Maxwell, “happen” to be the daughter of one of the Israeli intelligence agency’s chief operatives? And why was she sourcing underage girls for Epstein and his clients among other willing or not so willing sexual partners?

Those questions would lead you to many more, but at this point you would whip out your laptop and set up a spreadsheet to organize a mountain of evidence. One column would be labeled “Johns.” Another would be labeled “Victims.” Another would be labeled “Coconspirators.” Another would be labeled “Known Unknowns.” Another would be labeled “Unknown Unknowns.” And on and on.

And down the left side of the spreadsheet you would have over two decades of years listed. Hundreds and apparently even into the thousands of people, guilty and innocent, would be typed into the cells. Cells upon cells upon cells.

So it went. This is how the universe of Epstein files was built. But the prosecution that put Epstein in prison – and led to his “suicide” that was no suicide at all – focused on only a very few victims and johns in order to put him away, get him somewhere he could be conveniently suicided, and deep six the whole shebang. Pun intended. So grand jury testimony involves only a very narrow slice of the entire Epstein story.

The people involved with Epstein were very wealthy, very powerful, and indeed were the kind of people who turned the wheels of the world. Some still do. They misbehaved sexually in manifold ways and Epstein recorded it. And sexual blackmail is the ultimate weapon, kryptonite against not just financial power but especially against political power.

The Epstein “file” that is being concealed is too big for any one book or any one laptop. No doubt it is the kind of thing AI would be useful in tying together. And no doubt it is just one example of how our government has been compromised by enemies both from within and from without, and that is why despite all the other big things going on, any suppression of the Epstein files is as big a deal as big deals get.

That’s the history Trump wants you to think is a hoax. Not a story, history. If the Epstein files have been corrupted, then have the F.B.I. do the forensics, rebuild the files, and arrest the perpetrators in the files, and also those who corrupted the files. There is no hoax about Epstein and what he was doing over years and years with many, many people. Including Donald Trump.

Now that Trump is trying to sweep it all under the rug, it is clear that somehow Donald Trump is damaged goods, and somehow it involves the Epstein files. And it cannot simply be a birthday card. Which explains at least in part why it is six months in and we’re still feeding weapons and money into Ukraine. And why the self-proclaimed peace president just bombed the poop out of a country with whom we are not at war and Israel is bombing countries left and right with lesser bombs which they source from us. And why Hamas still holds hostages. And why not a single arrest has been made for the stolen election, the Biden mental health coverup, or any of the other abuses of power of the Biden years. Trump is owned somehow, by somebody, but not by the people who voted for him.

The time is now to plan for the post-Trump world, before Republicans lose their slight edge in Congress or Trump strokes out for real – he’s not looking so well lately and after all, he is nearly 80. He’s certainly acting erratically, contradicting himself and attacking ideological allies like Thomas Massie and Rand Paul and his own base. Perhaps a third party movement is the answer now. But by all means, we need to make sure J.D. Vance is all there and that the MAGA appointments hold fast. And do everything we individually can to obliviate the vestiges of the Obama/Biden regime.

Trump might still do some good for MAGA ideals before the midterms but most likely his goose is cooked and after that, America’s is.

Because mighty Donald has struck out.

The proper and urgent role of a third party.

Or third parties, plural. Competition is good. But consider a third party that picks up where traditional patriots have gotten left in the lurch.

It is still unclear how Donald Trump got sucked into the production of the new reality show “Dystopia” starring Mephistopheles as Lindsey Graham, but there he is, swinging sticks with Putin and slowly backing off other MAGA priorities.

Meanwhile a host of formerly independent thinkers from Tulsi Gabbard to Robert Malone who formed the bulk of the Biden opposition have been brought into Trump’s government and now face the agonizing decision: Finally in a place where I can make the greatest difference with my talents, do I follow the Commander in Chief like a good soldier, or resign as a conscientious objector? Do I stay on as the face of the modern regime of pestilence, perversion, and warfare while trying to work against it?

It is also unclear what Elon Musk’s recently announced America Party has as its goals other than to unseat legislators who voted for the Big Beautiful Bill. That’s rather narrow and negative and it arouses no great passion, but it does at least reflect dissatisfaction with the traditional two party system.

But disaffected Americans with the values that made America the shining light to the world now have to seek another path.

Third party efforts in the past have tended to center around strong personalities who were shooting for the presidency like Ross Perot or Pat Buchanan. History has shown that is not a winning approach.

To have a chance to succeed, and make a difference, a third party should orient itself instead toward Congress. It should be formed by Congressional candidates – Reps and Senators – who are principled, independent, and idealogically speaking, strict Constitutional contructionists.

And it would not take a great number of these third party Legislators and Senators to hold great sway in the political process. After all, the electorate and Congress itself are fairly evenly divided between red and blue. A relatively small number of idealogically aligned third party Congressmen and Senators would hold the deciding bloc of votes on nearly every major issue, from impeachment to spending bills to investigations of corruption, bloat, and the surveillance state.

We know who these people are who are already in Congress: Rand Paul, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Thomas Massie, and Tim Burchett come immediately to mind. Maybe even on the blue side John Fetterman. There are several others, of course.

To qualify as members of this third party – let’s call it the Homeland Party for a working title – anyone running under its banner should sign an oath to commit to certain common standards. For examples: Paper ballots and Voter I.D.; regular order; a line item veto; strong defense but declaration of war for all major military engagement; tight borders but streamlined legal immigration; preeminence of local rule and allegiance to the Bill of Rights; strict campaign funding standards; vigorous anti-trust enforcement; a balanced budget; restriction of federal police and the spooks; and so on.

Whoever the president is, of whichever of the traditional two parties, would have to convince this bloc of Homeland Party office holders to pass legislation. It would help keep the major parties honest and force them to root out the shadow government. It would temper the cult of personality.

There is no doubt that candidates who commit to the Homeland Party will receive support from both Democratic and Republican voters. Everybody is sick of the Uniparty. Everybody abhors the Deep State. MAGA voters in particular are totally disillusioned by the turn that the Trump administration has taken of late. And traditional Democrat voters feel their party had abandoned them for far left wacko tangents like LGBTQETC and the like.

There is still over a year to the midterms. Plenty of time to gitter going. Anybody game?

The buck stops with Trump, not Bondi.

Monitoring the various conservative podcasts, it is clear that even the most ardent MAGA enthusiasts are pretty disturbed over the Epstein thing. But none of the hosts and only a rare guest pundit will point the finger in the right direction. Instead there is much conversation about Kash Patel, Dan Bongino, and Pam Bondi, or protecting the reputations of the innocent, or a years-long special prosecution. But this fiasco lies at the feet of one person and one person only: Donald Trump.

President Trump lost any vestige of plausible deniability when he jumped down the throat of the reporter who dared ask a question about the Epstein case at this week’s cabinet meeting. There has not been a single question about Epstein posed to the president since then. For all the fanfare, it seems the “alternative media” now included in the White House press corps is afraid to lose their new positions.

And Trump has not granted any of the impromptu press gaggles and availability for which he is famous since the cabinet meeting. Instead he has voiced his support for Pam Bondi in his own shucking and jiving Saturday night Truth Social post. Boy, if that isn’t the kiss of death. The operative term is “damning with faint praise.”

As an aside, sometimes hindsight is 20-20. So perhaps the clearest sign that Trump was heading down the primrose path was his meeting with Zelenskyy at the funeral of Pope Francis. Z-man came away practically whistling, he was so happy. It seems in retrospect that at least from that point, the fix was in. Perhaps that is also about the time the Iranian foray got the green light. Enquiring minds want to know.

For those who have been around since the 70s, Trump’s behavior might feel a bit Nixonian. Nixon was an independent thinker, too. And guess what. It turns out that the latest historical analysis is that Richard Nixon was done in by the Deep State. And as Nixon learned the hard way, it’s the coverup that will send you down river.

Blackmail is only effective if there is a coverup. Come clean, President Trump. We all want to know that YOU are the man making the decisions, not your handlers. We’ve had enough of that from past administrations. Your leadership, clean leadership, is desperately needed by this country. Cut the tripe: Come clean and preside over this democracy as your own man, the one we elected you to be. Stop feeding the war in Ukraine. Make peace in the Middle East. Win the midterms by governing well, not as one governed.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It’s make or break time for Donald Trump.

He’s done. Finished. Kaput.

What follows is what is to fear. Nature and evil both abhor a vacuum. Politics is certainly not the natural world, so evil is about to rush in.

It is true that Donald Trump was the great white hope. Not white in the sense of race but in the very sense of hope. Hope to right the ship of the Republic to sail further into a future of American rebirth and righteousness, of freedom and the pursuit of happiness for every sovereign individual making up a sovereign nation to light the way for the rest of the world.

But Jeffrey Epstein and the panoply of demons he represents has risen from the grave or the ashes to grab Trump by the short hairs and drag him down to the nine circles of Hell.

The Trump administration came in like a bull in a china shop, immediately cracking down on illegal alien felons, sealing the border, and issuing a string of executive orders that unraveled the manifold ways that Barack Obama’s third term, the illegitimate Biden presidency, had worked to undermine the American way.

And up until and even including in part this past week, Trump has redirected the government away from its wreckage and back to being of, for, and by the people. He nixed the tranny trash. His appointments, especially RFK Jr, were stellar, and already the madness of big pharma has been checked if not stopped. Trump’s other great appointment, Scott Bessent, has done a masterful job implementing the tariffs, all the while quashing inflation. And Marco Rubio has been a brilliant choice for Secretary of State.

All in all, Trump has made great strides in recalibrating the bureaucracy to be value-added rather than value-drained. He at least talked and worked for peace, even if he could not force peace. And just last week, he called Netanyahu’s bluff by bombing Iran’s supposed nuclear facilities, then calling off the dogs.

But the Big Beautiful Bill, while portrayed as a win because of varous high points like funding for the wall, was no win for his base. The spending is astronomical and the saving is only on the come.

The war in Ukraine, an inevitable win for Russia if not a nuclear disaster for the world, rages on and we keep feeding weapons and money into it. The Middle East is still a caldron while Netanyahu regroups to make the case for regime change in Iran, for even without the nuclear threat, the mullahs still feed every kind of mischief and terrorism from Hamas to the Houthis.

Already Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, two megastars of the resistance to the corruption of the DOJ, had been humiliated by claiming that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. It was obvious to any informed observer that they were forced to do so. But then this week there was the embarrassing display at the cabinet meeting by Trump himself, mocking a reporter who asked a legitimate question and acting as if the Epstein story was a trifle, followed by Pam Bondi’s sounding like a teenager shucking and jiving to shift blame away from her own failure to follow through with the Epstein files.

Trump is tough as nails and smart as a whip. He knows, and all Americans know who understand that their government has been hijacked by nefarious interests – call them the Deep State, the globalists, the communists, the corporatists, the technocrats, or what you will – that what went down on Epstein’s Island and elsewhere in his dealings with the rich and powerful, is the very key to untying that Gordian Knot.

With Covid as Trump 45, he was played. With Epstein, he will be owned. The signs are there already in Ukraine, in the Middle East, in the unrestrained spending, in the growing whispers about mass amnesty… The executive orders are just window dressing if the government is not rescued from the unelected special interests and the big things do not get enshrined into law. And the rule of law is a pipe dream if the perps who break it are not prosecuted, no matter their stations in life.

If Donald Trump does not correct his course immediately and irrevocably by coming clean on the Epstein issue, his and our worst nightmare is about to come true: Trump 47 will go down the drain as no more and no less than Biden’s second term. And any hope for making American great again will go with it.

On the contrary: It is Barack’s bunker that Trump is busting.

Well, it certainly appears that Donald Trump did not get rolled in the Iran deal. It was a tremendous success. It seems to have gone down like this:

Netanyahu – whatever all his reasons, whether political or not but certainly at root for the good reason of doing his very best for his homeland and people – decided to force the issue with President Trump by attacking Iran. Trump called his bluff. He sent the bombers. They blew the poop out of whatever Iran had going on. So Israel could not say that America didn’t serve them as a dutiful ally. But then President Trump forced a truce. That is not at all what Netanyahu had in mind.

And by blowing Iran’s complexes to smithereens, Trump called Iran’s bluff as well. After all this time it is apparent that they are not competent to build nuclear bombs nor deliver nuclear bombs. Only Russia or China could get them to that point. And not even they like this idiot Ayatollah and his idiotic theocracy. It’s just that the Iranian regime has been a nest of useful idiots to them, providing all kinds of mischief and threat as a thorn in America’s side. Trump neutralized that as well.

But most of all, Donald Trump’s bunker buster bomb gambit busted Barack Obama’s chops. Obama had more riding on the ayatollahs than anyone. But he is watching his legacy of death and destruction and chaos in the Middle East via the Arab Spring and Isis and the Iran pallets-of-euros deal fall apart even quicker than his God-awful marriage, drowning more certainly even than his “cook,” and he senses the shadow of a bunker buster bomb descending at a high rate of speed directly at his own island bunker. On it are painted the words “truth” and “justice” and it is fueled by a revenant president named Donald J. Trump.

President Trump, are you letting yourself get rolled yet again?

Robert F. Kennedy Jr summed it up perfectly about Donald Trump and Covid: Trump got rolled. The supposed Covid pandemic lunged at his presidency like a mugger out of the dark shadows of an alley. It threw him over. He deferred to snakes like Fauci and the public health establishment too much too long. It sucked the momentum right out of his first term, set up the mail-in ballot gambit, and gave the cadaver Joe Biden the election in 2020.

Then it could be said Trump got rolled again going into the inauguration. He knew the result was fraudulent. He should have stood his ground. He had half a million or so souls in D.C. on January 6 who would have backed him up. Instead in the face of a false flag operation and Mike Pence’s lack of spine, Trump had to take the long way round to regain the presidency, waiting four years until he had the deck so stacked against the Left’s thieving ways that they could not pull off another steal. Meanwhile the Biden term undid all the good Trump had accomplished and did yet untold further damage to the republic.

Now, the supposed “peace” president has still not stopped the carnage in Ukraine and the ball is teed up for a nuclear confrontation over Iran. And if the other Islamists like Pakistan and our NATO “ally” Turkey step up, it could all come unraveled like Sarajevo 1914. With our fleet mostly out of the South China Sea, the CCP is licking its chops to solve its economic problems by taking Taiwan.

Yes, Lindsey Graham, the world would certainly be a better place without the Ayatollah. But there are about a billion other whirling dervishes that will pop up in his place if Netanyahu pops a cap on him. Your lust for war is troubling. The Senate would certainly be a better place without you.

And Mark Levin, as enjoyable as you can be when you are right, your shrill tirades are equally despicable when wrong. Your support for the weasel Zelenskyy has tested sane men’s patience, but your over-the-top, Sherman-like march to have Netanyahu start WWIII may cause your listeners to bust a blood vessel if you don’t bust one yourself first. Calm down, man.

President Trump, every true patriot loves you and will support our men and women in uniform no matter your orders, but sometimes your over-confidence is your worst enemy. Back away from this war. Stop the flow of money and munitions to Ukraine. Heck, just give it to Putin. He broke it, he bought it. And we need him as a friend because the CCP is evil, and it is ascendant. Besides, Ukraine is a cesspool akin to Iraq and Afghanistan. We don’t have the money for that.

RFK Jr’s uncle got rolled at the Bay of Pigs by the same harpies who hate you and who are pushing you into this war. Eisenhower had warned him but it was only when he got rolled that JFK fully appreciated the message. Then he tried to push back. Well, that was the end of JFK. And a few years later, the next Kennedy. Today’s Kennedy knows they rolled you with Covid because it hit too close to home for him not to recognize.

Mr. President, the harpies like Fauci and Graham and Levin rolled you once, twice – now don’t get fooled again. Or else having found your Achilles heel, they will kill you in the end, too. They’ve come close enough already. In this case, it’s not just your life and it’s not just the presidency. World peace is at stake.

Democrats: Please take back your party.

Those few times I discuss politics outside this blog with anyone at large, it is usually some Democrat friend who just can’t stand not having somebody to complain about Trump to, so I am it. I try to fend off such conversations because it is never a productive use of time. But getting a Trump-hater to drop the subject is like removing ticks. You can’t brush them off so easy.

I finally hit upon a way out. I simply ask what alternative they have.

The problem is, the Democrats have been kidnapped. No single Democrat I know is in agreement AT ALL with the policies which the vanguard of the party are pushing. They don’t want boys in girls’ sports. They think cross-dressers are lost souls crying for help. And if you really drill down with them, they’re really not that comfortable with gay marriage, certainly not the whole two daddies thing, though they – like nearly all Americans today – think homosexual adults should have their privacy respected and not be persecuted by extremist zealots.

They believe in God. They believe in voter I.D. They believe non-citizens should enter the country legally and those who did not, should be deported. They really don’t like abortion, certainly not partial birth abortion, though they think it’s a necessary evil. They think the killing in Ukraine is madness. They know Joe Biden was an animatronic president and that Kamala Harris a blithering idiot. And Hillary Clinton, for that matter. And Gavin Newsome – a complete phony.

But they hate Donald Trump for evil things he has not done, has not been convicted of, and for all the evidence, never in a million years would do.

These well-meaning but hate-blinded Democrats are like the fellow in Edward Everett Hale’s short story, “The Man Without a Country” – doomed to sail the world rootless and ashamed because the party they belong to has cast them off in all but name.

Listen, you Democrats: You need to take your party back!

The Democrats have a proud history including FDR, JFK, and… Ok, that’s about as far as it goes. They don’t want to discuss McGovern. Or Carter. Or Bubba Clinton. Or increasingly as the film is removed from their eyes, Barack Obama. The one with the big estate in the Hamptons or wherever and who was surfboarding with the cook who mysteriously drowned in shallow water…

But even if Democrats’ leaders have tended to have feet of heavier clay than most, their hearts have always been in the right place – with the little guy. With the average Joe. With the families who sent their sons off to fight for freedom. With the Catholics if not the Presbyterians. And so on.

In these times the Republicans – belonging to a party which is no paragon of virtue itself, but at least not the repository of every nutcase in the country – have to include in their tent such conscientious but impractical people known as RINOs, who really ought to be Democrats. Because even the RINOS cannot get on board with the crazy policies the elected Democrats are pushing. It is making the Republicans less effective in achieving such things as stopping war, reducing government waste and abuse, and improving the economy.

So, Democrats: Get your act together, stop obsessing over Trump, and take your party back. It is the most patriotic and productive thing you could possibly do with your public lives. Then, we don’t care what you do with your private lives. And you can hate on Trump all you want. We’ll just shrug our shoulders. Because we – Democrats and Republicans and Independents alike – will all have our country back.

Illegals: Probable cause is all the due process needed.

As if they have nothing else to do – because they don’t, after gifting us four years of the animatronic corpse Joe Biden as president and then running Frau Kamala Frankenstein to succeed him – leftist demagogues and imprudent jurists have taken up the cause of a Salvadoran thug under the guise of fighting for due process.

This cause célèbre is nearly as ludicrous as the championing of cross dressers in girls’ sports and the military and open borders for the unwashed masses including gangsters, faux cartelistas, pedophiles and sex-slavers galore. The guy in that prison in El Salvador came here illegally and has twice been adjudicated a gang member already – more due process than he deserves – and what’s more, he has been returned to his birth country. Jeez. Louise.

If you actually follow real news, you know that already. This is another fake controversy. But the absurdity of it serves a purpose for good, too. Because the winds have shifted. The American people aren’t buying this tripe any more – none but the Hollywood wannabees, those with tenure, and those who live in smart-phone fog getting their news from Tik-Tok between bets on the lottery and Titans updates.

The reality is, the situation with illegals and the dirtballs among them is Andrew Jackson all over again. The guy who, nowadays in woke revisionist history, was an Indianphobe, a genocidal maniac who was a one man parade marshal for the Trail of Tears. Except, none of that is a true understanding of history.

The truth of the matter is that Andrew Jackson was a problem solver. If he hated anybody, it was the British – the globalist elites of the day – whose brutality led to the death of his brother during the Revolution. And both the British and the French resented the new United States. They constantly plied the Indians with liquor and guns and a heavy dose of chip-on-the-shoulder against the pioneers pushing west and south into Florida and Tennessee and Alabama such that extremists within the tribes would terrorize the new settlers.

Jackson put a stop to the terrorism of his day. Yet one of Jackson’s adopted sons was Lyncoya, an Indian toddler who was rejected by the squaws of his tribe, one of three Indian children Jackson brought home from the Red Stick campaign in 1814 and the only one of the three who survived. Jackson and wife Rachel doted on him, raising Lyncoya at the Hermitage. They sent him to private schools for the best education available. Tragically, Lyncoya died of tuberculosis at age 16.

So it’s clear that Jackson’s motives during the Indian wars were not racist, nor was he genocidal. He wanted security for both Indians and settlers and there was none to be had because of radical elements among the Indians susceptible to influence from the enemy French and British. He separated them out. It was a dirty business. But it solved a problem and saved countless lives, both new American and native American.

Andrew Jackson, the Iconic Tennessean, did not wait around for “due process.” He took action. The probable cause of gang tattoos, illegal entry, and suspicious activities are enough for our Federales to act on to quash the terrorism of our day. Let’s hope they don’t get caught short in the legal tarbaby that is the federal judiciary because leftist agitators have nothing better to do than file lawsuits and cut off their own noses to spite their ugly faces.

And if SCOTUS continues to issue absurd decisions a la this weekend’s midnight stay on deportations virtually “nullifying” the presidency, the parallels with Jackson’s term of office could line up even moreso, complete with a full blown Constitutional crisis.
