Side note

One thing about the absolutely jaw-dropping influx of donations I’ve been thoroughly floored by this week: there’s just been so damned many of you fine folks hitting Ye Aulde CF Tippe Jarre that just ain’t no way on God’s green Earth I’m gonna be able to send out email thank-yous to y’uns. This kinda makes me sad, honestly, since kiting a personal, private thanks whenever I receive a particulary generous donation out of the clear blue sky is something I’ve always enjoyed doing, and has long been standard practice around this here websty.

Subscribers, not so much; never could see any justification for spamming peoples’ inboxes once a month, so I never have done it. Moreover, most of my little coterie of “subscribers” are longtime readers I’ve become friendly with over the years, with whom I correspond on the regular outside the confines of the bloggiverse. I’ve even swapped pictures with what you might call the “CF Inner Circle” on occasion: photos of family; spouses; pets; favorite vacation spots; cars, boats, motorcycles, even the (VERY!) occasional airplane, and other such-like things as and when the urge hath struck.

So yeah, with all that goin’ on I figger my subscribers know already how much I truly do love them; no real need to keep rubbing their noses in how awesome they are, I shouldn’t think.

As for you folks who kicked in on this past week’s impromptu, kinda-sorta, not-quite-official fundraiser, please accept this brief missive, impersonal as it may seem, as a sincere expression of my gratitude. Your generosity humbles and awes me; your kind attention restores and renews my determination to keep on keepin’ on with this blog-writing nonsense, to the very limits of my ability, skill, and strength. The CF Pledge remains in full effect: long as y’all keep on reading, I promise I’ll keep on writing for ya. Hopefully, at least some of it will be half-decent, anyway.

Thank you all so very, very much.

Tulsi stumbles

WTAF, Miz G?

What the Hell Was That Tulsi Gabbard Video About?
Let’s talk about nuclear war, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s weird video about nuclear war.

AWWWW! Do we HAVE to, Uncle Steve? JEEZ….

Gabbard got raked over the coals by right-leaning critics, some conflating her remarks with an historically illiterate apology for Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Noah Rothman was one of several who accused her of “all but endors[ing] Barack Obama’s revisionist and ahistorical account of the end of the Second World War,” although I didn’t hear anything like that.

But that’s not to say that Gabbard’s video wasn’t at the very least odd.

At one point, Gabbard claimed that our “political elite and warmongers” are fomenting global thermonuclear war “because they are confident that they will have access to nuclear shelters for themselves and for their families that regular people won’t have access to.”

They still have to come out sometime. Real life isn’t an episode of “Fallout.”

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) — no RINO squish — quipped, “She obviously needs to change her meds,” and I’m inclined to agree.

I’m not the biggest fan of Gabbard on policy — she was strangely buddy-buddy on several occasions with Syria’s Bashar al-Assad and sometimes comes across as a Putin apologist. But I understand Trump’s desire, the nation’s need, and Gabbard’s ability to shake up the D.C. intel community. 

But none of that explains the general weirdness on display here.

Curiously, when Trump met this weekend at Camp David to discuss Iran and Gaza strategy with his “top team,” including “Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, chief of staff Susie Wiles, special envoy Steve Witkoff, CIA director John Ratcliffe and other senior officials,” Gabbard was not in attendance.

There’s also the question of why the president’s DNI would make a campaign-style video.

Is she on her way out — of her own accord or not? I won’t pretend to even have a guess.

Nor will I. Tulsi Gabbard has long walked a very different path than most any other American ProPol you could name, for which habit I’ve always liked more than disliked her. As a confirmed off-the-beaten-track weirdo myself for my whole life, how could it be otherwise? Long as your personal “freak flag” doesn’t involve pedophilia, necrophilia, or bestiality; promoting mental dysfunction by insisting everyone endorse your delusional notion that, in your own head, you are not in fact the biological sex you so clearly are; suppression of others’ right to freedom of expression by means of intimidation and/or violence; shitting in the streets; and any and every other traducement of a free man’s God-given rights as enumerated in the US Constitution, you just go right ahead and let that freak flag of your’n fly, ain’t gonna catch no grief from this ol’ boy about it.

Who the hell even knows what’s going on in the lady’s pretty head this time, but looking at the bigger overall picture we’ve seen of Gabbard, her instincts, and her inclinations, I’m willing to overlook a little weirdness now and then. Certainly, she’s utterly loyal to the Bossman who put her where she is now—more loyal than she’ll ever be to any collectivist ideology; the criminal organization masquerading as a political party pimping it; or the nefarious, sub-rosa skullduggery by which Team Stalin hopes to ram their agenda down Real American throats, whether they will or they nil.

On the other hand, one thing we’ve all learned on the PDQ about President Donald John Trump v2.0 this time out: he sure knows how to keep ‘em guessing, don’t he? The man’s got a real gift for putting absolutely everybody—be they friend, foe, or disinterested passerby—on the back foot and seeing to it that they stay that way for as long as he needs ’em to be, as my dear old Grampa used to say. Going all the way back to the 2016 campaign, every time you heard yet another pinhead press “corpseman” griping about OMB’s roundabout, meandering way of speaking, how nobody could ever seem to pin The Donald down and force a straightforward, direct answer from him regarding any topic at all—ZOMG what is WRONG with you people can’t you fucking see he is just so stupid stupid stupid he can’t even utter coherent  sentences in correct English, he’s soooooo stupid!!!—it was always my belief that what we were really looking at was Trump maneuvering the pasty, officious dweeb into his patented Figure Four Leg Lock (Rhetorical), only the poor victim wasn’t bright enough to realize he’d just been made a fool of by the better, smarter, more wily man.

AGAIN, I mean.

Let’s get this party STARTED, people!

Bet none of y’all had “kicks off for reals in formerly mellow, laid-back El Lay, duuuude, sparked by illegal-alien cuddling shitlibs violently turning on certain FederalGovCo departments and/or agencies for simply doing their jobs and nothing more” on your Civil War v2.0 bingo card, now didja?

Many Americans express bewilderment to me as to why even the soi-disant Euro-pussies would surrender their homelands to barbarians without a shot being fired. Fair point – except that the pilot programme for this unprecedented civilisational suicide was an American jurisdiction, and once one of the most glittering in the Union. Among forty-nine other states, it was the Golden State; it fired the imaginations not just of Americans but of much of the planet: California, here I come! Won’t you get hip to this timely tip? I left my heart in San Francisco…

Really? If you did, it’ll be sitting in a pile of fecal matter. Even as it happened, the loss of California was not much analysed: The Democrats preferred to take their victory sotto voce, while Republicans were still bleating about “Ronald Reagan’s California”, as if it had not joined the Lost City of Atlantis on the bottom of the seabed. Orange County, said Mr Reagan, is where “all good Republicans go to die”.

Almost right. It’s where the Republican Party went to die. In 1990 the OC was still two-thirds white; now it’s a third, or the same as the Hispanic population. And yet the GOP remains mystified why one of the most Republican strongholds in the country is now just another Democrat county. California has more electoral votes than any other state. Across the country, in another vote-rich state, New York City is now forty per cent immigrant.

In the end, it’s all demography. Yesterday, I quoted from an old column of mine from the immediate aftermath of the 2012 election. But I thought the whole thing could use a replay – because demography killed California, and demographic transformation is not a natural phenomenon.

Did someone mention NYC just now? Why yes, I believe someone did at that.

NYPD vehicles torched in suspected arson attack as cops find undetonated explosive devices nearby
Arsonists torched at least 11 NYPD vehicles in a targeted attack in a Brooklyn parking lot early Thursday — with undetonated explosive devices also found after two masked suspects were seen running away, police and sources said.

Police and FDNY responded to a report of multiple vehicles ablaze at a lot in Bushwick at the intersection of Central and DeKalb avenues — just a block from the 83rd Precinct station house — around 1:30 a.m. Thursday.

Mayor Eric Adams said at an unrelated press conference that 11 vehicles were damaged and 14 were impacted. No injuries were reported.

The NYPD did not immediately give a suspected motive for the attack, however a flyer taped to a wall directly across from the police station accuses officers of the 83rd precinct of breaking up Puerto Rican Day festivities on Sunday night, injuring revelers.

The fliers called for resistance against the police, and tied in the anti-ICE and protests have spread from Los Angeles to New York City and global anti-Israel protests.

“Now is the time for unified, disciplined action — from Palestine to Puerto Rico to Los Angeles, the struggle for freedom continues,” the flier read.

The above-cited reports of outbreaks of organized, coordinated shitlib violence from sea to shining sea are purely coincidental and entirely unrelated, I’m sure.

This land is THEIR land update! So what’s really going on here, you might well ask? Oh, lots. Lots, and lots, and lots, and LOTS.


1830, is it, muchacho? Having to reach kinda far back to make your point, seems to me. Which usually indicates that the point you’re trying to make is not a very good one. To wit:

How US got California, other states from Mexico for $15 million in 1848
The flag of Mexico has become ubiquitous on the streets of America as a protest symbol against Donald Trump and his government’s immigration policies. Which makes sense given that many people in Texas and California have Mexican ancestry. Let’s take a look at when the US purchased California and half of Mexico’s territory in 1848 got California, other states from Mexico for $15 million in 1848

The protests in Los Angeles, a response to the immigration policies of the Trump administration, continue to rage.

Though US President Donald Trump has sent thousands of National Guard troops as well as hundreds of marines, the demonstrators seem to be undeterred.

But how did it all come about? Let us take a closer look.

It all kicked off way back in the 1840s.

Tensions between the two countries had been growing for years.

On the one side you had the US evangelists of the concept of “manifest destiny” – which preached the superiority and the seemingly divine right of Americans to colonise whatever lands they saw fit on the continent – and on the other you had a wary Mexico.

In the meantime hostilities had nearly broken out between the two countries after the US Navy in 1942 – wrongly believing that war had broken out – seized Monterey in California.

While Monterey was immediately returned, it was a harbinger of things to come.

In 1845, outgoing President John Tyler annexed Texas as his final act in the US’ highest office.

By then, Mexico had severed diplomatic relations with the United States.

Polk began with diplomacy – he initially attempted to buy California, New Mexico and land near Texas for $30 million.

In November 1845, he even sent US diplomat John Slidell to open negotiations with Mexico.

However, Slidell was soundly rebuffed – the Mexican government refused to even see him.

But Polk was prepared– he had already sent US Army commander Zachary Taylor to occupy disputed land.

When Mexican troops fired on Taylor and his forces, Polk had the pretext he needed.

Polk immediately moved Congress for a declaration of war against America’s neighbour.

The Mexican-American War would end (with) the US comprehensively defeating its neighbour.

American armies led by General Zachary Taylor and General Winfield Scott, often outnumbered, would defeat Mexican troops again and again in a series of pitched battles.

The US lost more soldiers to infection and disease than actual battle.

Ulysses S Grant and Robert E Lee, the men who would respectively lead the Union and Confederate armies during the Civil War, received their first taste of real combat in Mexico.

And the rest, as they say, is history…like it or lump it, beaners.

The glancing mention of Grant and Marse Robert above is notable, apt, and historically insructive. By and large, Civil War v1.0 would be fought by two national armies whose officer corps had won their respective spurs in the Mex-Ami rhubarb. With the Federal army, the majority of its field-grade officers would be offered their commissions based almost entirely on their Mexican War reputations, which sometimes had been fairly won and other times…eh, not so much.

In the long run, the relative cakewalk South of the US border ended up serving the US and CSA both quite well as a sort of hands-on, non-classroom OCS/practical training course/advanced tactical studies program for the shattering, murderous conflagration soon to get underway North of the border.

Not again update! Another day, another dumpster-dive for those poor Jarheads.

Marines Deployed To Another Third-World Country Full Of Hostile Foreigners
LOS ANGELES, CA — As has become the standard operating procedure for the military branch over the last half-century, 700 members of the United States Marines found themselves being deployed to yet another third-world country that is full of hostile foreigners.

In this latest deployment to a non-English-speaking wasteland, the Marines were supremely confident that they would be able to handle the marauding hordes of foreign nationals, despite the inhospitable conditions presented by the rubble and destruction of the surroundings.

“Same thing, different day,” said Sergeant Heath Parsons. “We know the drill. We train and prepare until the day when our number is called and we have to report to save the world by traveling to some third-world hell-hole to confront foreign hostiles. We’re used to it at this point.”

Though there had already been some skirmishes in which Marines clashed with the angry natives in the area, the presence of the U.S. Military had already had an impact on the war-torn region. “You can catch little glimpses of what this place used to be like,” said another Marine. “It’s part of our job as Marines, in addition to being prepared to fight, to bring a little bit of hope with us from the United States to show places like this what life can be like under better circumstances.”

Some of the foreigners cautiously welcomed the Marines, while others remained combative when faced with English-speaking Americans.

Well, it’s just that, out in the “press 2 for English” sectors of the FUSA, they run across so vanishingly few of the darn things, see. Puts them right out of their reckoning. “Exotic” doesn’t even begin to cover the idea of an American in LA who actually speaks the King’s English.

At publishing time, rumors persisted that the Pentagon was committed to eventually establishing a democracy in the area.

Shhhhyeeeaah, THAT’LL be the day. You’d have a tough time coming up with much more than, oh, eight or ten people—irrespective of ethnicity, nationality, income (if any) and/or educational level, citizenship status, gender, sexual orientation, etc etc who’d be willing to admit harboring even a passing interest in that ”democracy/liberty/prosperity” horsepuckey at this late date, I‘d guess. Well, except for the areas within, say, five-ten minutes’ walk of Ft Irwin, Camp Pendleton, Coronado, Miramar, Seal Beach, and El Centro, perhaps—haven’t been out to any of those places in a long while, but I can’t imagine that the old-time religion of abiding love of country, strong sense of duty and honor, the legacy of traditions and beliefs faithfully passed down from our Forefathers from generation to generation have all just quietly passed not just from existence but even from the memories of our young soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines. No way.

Then again, though, throw San Fransicko, San Berdoo, Compton, and Oakland into the mix with LA and it would probably be more than enough to tip the scales well back into Team Stalin territory and away from any more of that “democracy” nonsense for good.

Let’s not even go into the impact on this “democracy” discussion Cullyfornia’s military airfields; training bases; rifle, AGM, aerial bombing, and artillery ranges, as well as not-quite-as-venerable but every bit as proud, honorable installations such as Fort St George of Fentanyl, Camp Jordan Neely, and NAS “Bathhouse” Barry Soetero are likely to bring to bear when all’s said and done, ‘kay?

Funny ha-ha

Swiped this ‘un from our boy Ken, just ‘cuz it got a snicker out of grouchy old me.

Heh. Also, *snort, chortle!* On reflection, I suspect the main reason this groaner got me to giggling so was the reminder of how overjoyed I was back when Madeleine began to show the first early signs that her early-toddler-years fascination with godawful puns was beginning to wear off at last.

The Disruptors

A “mostly peaceful” assault against DHS head Kristi Noem by lunatic Dem Senator Alex Padilla—who is now whining that actually, you guys, HE was the real victim here.


Your obligatory “Show more” end run:

BREAKING: Secretary Kristi Noem fires back at Democrat Senator Alex Padilla — who’s now claiming mistreatment after storming a DHS press conference.

“I think his statement is actually ridiculous.”

She laid out exactly what happened from her perspective.

“This man burst into a room, started advancing towards the podium, interrupting an opening statement, elevating his voice, shouting questions.”

“People tried to stop him from interrupting the press conference, he refused and continued to lunge towards the podium and that is when he was removed from the room.”

Then came the reality check:

“So the way that he acted was completely inappropriate.”

“It wasn’t becoming of a U.S. Senator or a public official and perhaps he wanted the scene and that’s what he wanted.”

The rest of country is tired of these charades:

“But I think the American people are sick of this action.”

“I think the American people are tired of this, they just want the truth and they want to know it’s happening and that’s what we were trying to provide.”

Just remember: anyone attempting to govern against the will of the D卐M☭CRATs will pay a heavy price for their balls-out impudence.

Holy Mother of…?!?

So I go into the hospital for a cpl weeks, get cut, sawn, and stitched upon a bit, emerge a good bit the worse for wear, have to go back in for an encore performance, emerge thinking what the hell, Death CAN’T be THIS busy, can he? During this agonizing interregnum, natch, I avoided all things Innarnuts like the proverbial plague, knowing as I do that A) a thorough cleaning-out of the mental pipes is a good and necessary thing now and again, and B) my worn-out, Amazon’s Cheapest wired keyboard and mouse rig was due to give up the ghost at any moment.

When what to my wondering eyes did appear, upon my exit from Hospital Durance Vile and re-entry into what some poor deluded souls are pleased to kid themselves is the Real World, but a PayPal account that had, for reasons unknown to me, absolutely blown the fuck UP over the past weekend, rocketing from a running daily balance of, basically, zero (0) dollars and no (0) cents, up to a pretty hefty surplusage in nothing flat.

Pulled 40 bucks from the slush pile right away and headed back to the ‘Zon to see if a more satisfactory keyboard/mouse siuation might be arranged, whereupon I picked up this sweet little rig. Now all’s I gotta do is get used to the feel of the keyboard, which is definitely nowhere near as stiff and clunky as the old one was—with the added advantage that most, possibly even ALL, of the keys seem to work too. Yowza!

Many, many humble thanks to all you fine folks out there in Blogolandia, for all the many things you do and have always done for me over lo, these many years. Back to regular posting in a trice, soon as my head stops spinning like a spinning top.

Straight, White and Vindicated: Supreme Court Drops the Hammer…

This 9-0 Supreme Court ruling sends a loud and clear message: the DEI house of cards is starting to collapse. First, it was academia. Now, it’s the workplace. The tide is definitely turning – and not a moment too soon.

Do not give up. Do not listen to those that say we can not come back. They are at best a disservice to America, and at worst, on the other side.

SCOTUS 9-0, No dissent

Inner workings

Of an administration that DIDN’T work, in any way, at any level.

Former White House Physician Drops Truth Bombs About Biden’s Health Cover-Up
During an appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” Rep. Dr. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas)—a man who served as White House physician for 14 years—dropped some major truth bombs that expose what may be the greatest constitutional crisis in modern American history.

Jackson is a doctor with 25 years of medical experience who witnessed the inner workings of multiple administrations firsthand. When he speaks about the cover-ups of Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, Americans should listen.

We’ve noted here at PJ Media that Biden brought Dr. Kevin O’Connor in as White House physician to help facilitate the cover-up of his cognitive decline, and Jackson believes this as well.

“Dr. O’Connor was his physician for eight years when he was vice president; he literally became part of the Biden family,” he said. But it gets worse. According to Jackson, O’Connor “was beloved by Jill Biden” and the Biden inner circle, developing such loyalty that “he would say or do anything that they ask him to do and cover up anything,” and that “they knew that they had somebody that could help cover up anything that might come up.”

This wasn’t about medical expertise—it was about ensuring silence.

Jackson warned that “we need to know, the American people need to know who was making decisions over those last four years. Who had access to that auto pen?”

The constitutional implications are staggering. As Jackson puts it, “If someone was running the country pretending to be the president of the United States and they weren’t, we need to know, and we need to make sure this never ever happens again.”

Best way to do that, of course, would be for Real Americans to hitch up their Big Boy britches, step up to the plate scaffold, and give their peers and like-minded colleagues most responsible for the Bribem Fiasco a real-time, up close and personal visual demonstration of what the phrase “pulling hemp” really, truly means. Failing that, we can only expect that this shit will go right on happening, again and again and again.

Good News – I heard from Mike today…

I checked with the hospital, then sent text to Mike and he responded that they were expecting to send him home from the hospital today or tomorrow.

I’ll let Mike provide details as he wishes when he gets back to his blog. I just know he is breathing and can type out a text complaining about being in bed for a week 🙂

Inflation Drops to 2.1%, Personal Income Tripled Expectations, U.S. Trade Deficit Drops by 46 Percent

It’s so unexpected… It so exceeds expectations…

And yet, these fools that claim otherwise will never, never ever, look at the results of Trump policy term 1 before the deep state shut down the economy to stop the growth lest the average American figure out the con game they are playing.

Read The Good Economic News

And let’s add this bit – growth will allow us to get out of debt, reduce/eliminate the deficit – growth is the key to future wealth – And Trump knows all this…

And 3.8% is just the beginning

Before the cabal of commies ended the Trump miracle Term One I predicted we would end up with growth in the 5-6% range, and that is where we were headed before they shut it down.

Trump is prepared this time, he knows their tricks, and it shows.

President Blasts Federalist Society

Just more evidence that Trump learned a great deal in his first term. I learned that the Federalist Society was a group of power hungry marxists by their judge recommendations. I did not know, until now, if Trump learned that lesson.

Trump Knows the Truth

Hattip: The Liberty Daily

NOW they’re all aquiver about the Autopen

https://instapundit.com/IMPEACH PRESIDENT AUTOPEN:

That’s Chazzzzz Martin, the Fascist who would have had everyone at Coldfury jailed for daring to question the WuFlu Narrative.

These people are execrable.

It was obvious from Day One, after they Frauded the Basement Campaigning Pedo Sniffer Biteme into Office, that he was not in charge of his faculties, his administration OR his bowels.
So, for 4 years these people like Chazzzzz Martin said not a Peep about the fact that SOMEONE else was running the Country. Holding the Nuclear Codes. Screwing America.

Nah, that wasn’t important enough to matter THEN. But NOW, now that Biteme is out and the damage has been done, all of these people are jammering with their panties in a twist about it, like right here and right now, this matters a wit compared to the Lawfare and Insurrection the Judiciary is engaging in. The Resistance.

They can all FOAD and I hope for their FA they get the same FO that the actual perpetrators get. Well, if the actual perpetrators ever “get” anything.
Which is a whole ‘nother rant for another time when my blood pressure is back down.

Neverending nightmare

Look for blogging to continue sluggish to non-existent here, folks, as I’ll be returning to the hospital tomorrow for yet more hacking off of vital body parts at the urgent behest of my physical-therapy nurse. To say I’m dreading this unwelcome encore like an ass-whupping would be a gross understatement; to say I’m the slightest bit happy about it would be a damnable lie. Back as quick as I can be, provided I live through this shite in the first place—by no means a given, I regret to say.

"I predict that the Bush administration will be seen by freedom-wishing Americans a generation or two hence as the hinge on the cell door locking up our freedom. When my children are my age, they will not be free in any recognizably traditional American meaning of the word. I’d tell them to emigrate, but there’s nowhere left to go.
