The future is here!

Or at Hill AF Base, at any rate.

America Airlifts Its Nuclear Future as Pentagon Delivers Microreactor in Historic C-17 Mission
A C-17 Globemaster III lifted off from March Air Reserve Base in California on Sunday carrying cargo that would have seemed like science fiction a generation ago: a next-generation nuclear reactor, bound for testing in Utah. The reactor was flown to Hill Air Force Base in Utah and is expected to be transported to the Utah San Rafael Energy Lab in Orangeville for testing and evaluation, marking a turning point in America’s race to reclaim energy dominance.

The airlift wasn’t just a logistics operation. It was a declaration that the United States intends to win the advanced nuclear race while China builds Generation IV reactors and the rest of the developed world stumbles through energy crises of their own making. President Donald Trump’s executive order to modernize America’s nuclear energy infrastructure and strengthen U.S. national security set this moment in motion, and the Department of War wasted no time executing the mission.

The reactor being transported is part of a collaboration between the Pentagon and Valar Atomics, a California-based startup founded by 25-year-old Isaiah Taylor. The company’s Ward 250 reactor represents a fundamentally different approach to nuclear power: small, transportable, factory-built units that can be deployed wherever they’re needed rather than massive installations that take decades to construct. For military installations that currently depend on vulnerable civilian power grids or diesel generators, the implications are profound.

For the military, reliance on diesel generators when deployed and local electric grids here at home is widely viewed as a significant national security threat. Every forward operating base running on fuel convoys is a target. Every domestic installation tied to the civilian grid is one cyberattack away from going dark. The microreactor solution eliminates both vulnerabilities. These units can be transported by C-17, set up at remote locations, and provide reliable power independent of supply lines or grid infrastructure.

Lots of very intriguing, very enheartening stuff in this one, folks. Bottom line:

The image of a nuclear reactor loaded into a C-17 represents more than technological capability. It represents a shift in how America approaches both energy and national security. For too long, those domains were treated as separate concerns, managed by bureaucracies more interested in process than results. The Trump administration’s executive orders and the military’s execution of programs like Janus reflect a different calculation: that energy security and military readiness are inseparable, and that restoring American dominance in both requires breaking old patterns.

Whether Valar Atomics ultimately succeeds or another company takes the lead matters less than the broader trajectory. The reactor sitting in Utah for testing is proof that America can still move quickly when leadership decides that winning matters more than managing decline. The question now is whether that momentum continues or whether it gets buried under the same regulatory and political obstacles that have paralyzed American energy development for half a century.

Time will tell, as ever. Either way, it’s good to know that SecWar Hegseth is working on it for us in accordance with the tasking set forth by President Trump, with eyes set firmly on the road ahead and not the dim and distant past.

Still smokin’

After his grand-slam speech in Munich, slugger Marco Rubio blasts another one all the way out to the cheap seats.

Rubio’s European Tour Heats Up — WaPo and the Cuban Revolution Take a Beating
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been in Europe this weekend for the Munich Security Conference and to meet with officials in Slovakia and Hungary. To be honest, when I saw his schedule, I thought, this will be a boring trip. I doubt I’ll even write anything about it. Europe bores me these days.

Witchya all the way on that one, cuz.

On Sunday, Rubio traveled to Slovakia to meet with President Peter Pellegrini and Prime Minister Robert Fico. He and Fico took questions from the press after their meeting, and one Washington Post reporter tried to play games with some little gotcha questions about Venezuela — Rubio wasn’t having it.

After asking Rubio a question about Iran, the WaPo reporter then turned to Fico and asked, “On Venezuela, you strongly opposed America’s removal of Maduro by force, saying it demonstrates a deepening breakdown of the international order. Do you still feel that way given where we’re at now? And also, you’ve denied saying that you were worried about President Trump’s psychological state following your meeting with him in Mar-a-Lago. Can you explain how this was potentially misinterpreted?”

(For context, Fico has been one of the more vocal European critics of our capture of Nicolás Maduro, saying it went against international law and calling it an “American adventure,” something about oil, yada yada. As for the talk about Trump’s “psychological state,” Politico did a story last month claiming Fico said he was worried about Trump’s “dangerous” mental state, but Fico has denied ever saying that.)

Anyway, Rubio answered the question about Iran, but before Fico could answer the one about Venezuela, Rubio continued Saturday’s display of unapologetic U.S. swagger. He not only called the reporter out for asking such a question, but he defended the Maduro move and even bragged about it a little.

He did at that, and it’s a thing of beauty to behold. Plenty more where the above came from, of which you want to read the all.

Update! Just gotta throw in this bit, on the doomed Commie shitrapy of Cuba:

At some point between all of these bada** moments, Rubio sat down with Bloomberg News for an interview. The interviewer, John Micklethwait, asked Rubio how long he thinks the Cuban regime can hold out with no oil. As we know, a couple of weeks ago, Trump threatened secondary tariffs on any country that offered the now isolated nation any oil, and Cuba has pretty much run out of it to the point that planes are grounded, ground transportation isn’t happening, people are gathering wood so they can cook, and everything from school days to surgeries have been canceled.

Rubio’s didn’t hesitate to call the situation what it is. “The revolution in Cuba ended a long time ago,” he said.

He continued.

Cuba’s fundamental problem is that it has no economy and its economic model is one that has never been tried and has never worked anywhere else in the world, okay? It just doesn’t have a real economic policy. It doesn’t have a real economy.

Now, put aside for a moment the fact that it has no freedom of expression, no democracy, no respect for human rights. The fundamental problem Cuba has it is has no economy, and the people who are in charge of that country, in control of that country, they don’t know how to improve the everyday life of their people without giving up power over sectors that they control. They want to control everything. They don’t want the people of Cuba to control anything.

So they don’t know how to get themselves out of this. And to the extent that they have been offered opportunities to do it, they don’t seem to be able to comprehend it or accept it in any ways. They would much rather be in charge of the country than allow it to prosper.

While he wouldn’t give the details of what he and President Trump are planning for the future of the island nation, he did say quite confidently that now that it’s not receiving handouts, it won’t survive because it’s never been able to survive without help before.

S’truth, right down the line.

Updated update! Compare, contrast.

Czech Politician Enrages Hillary Clinton in Munich
During the Munich Security Conference, Czech Deputy Prime Minister Petr Macinka pummeled Hillary Clinton with truth. She tried to talk about women’s rights and Ukraine as a digression away from the points he was making.

Macinka began mocking her TDS, which infuriated her.

Hillary wants the US to push the Ukraine war. She destroyed Libya with her approach and learned nothing from it. She wants to “inflict pain.” This is the woman who laughed when Gaddafi was tortured and killed. Torturing and killing aren’t funny.

I wasn’t impressed with the intelligence or comments by the people on this panel, especially Hillary, who can’t control her temper. She isn’t a world leader, why was she even there? She’s a three-time failed presidential candidate and failed miserably as Secretary of State.

At this point, I think it entirely safe to say that Hillary!™ is NOT the future of A) the “feminist” movement; B) the D卐M☭CRAT “Party”; the US of A; D) Western Civ; E) anything at all, frankly. Which, Her Herness© seems to be aware of this, explaining in part why she’s so touchy and ill-tempered of late.

Essentially, she turns out to have been wrong about absolutely everything, leading to her narcissistic ass being left behind on history’s ash heap of discarded lies. Now all’s she can do is sit there amongst the rest of the smelly trash—rotting banana peels, used Kleenex, mouse droppings, watermelon rinds, fish heads wrapped in old newspapers, and road-kill carcasses—muttering angrily to herself as the world continues to pass her by without a backward glance.

Update to the updated update! The bitter old hag might take a page from her former boss on how best to emotionally cope with having misread every sign, blithely skated right past every portent, missed every clue, and ignored every hint: screw up your face all serious-like, look sincerely concerned, poke out your forked tongue, and lie like a cheap rug. Yes, about EVERYTHING.

My favorite Obama “coming together” moment was when him and Hillary financed a phony dossier to sabotage the rightfully elected President https://t.co/rW522q6p7S

See, Hills? Grandmaster Bathhouse Barry, with many, many years of experience at this sort of thing, makes it look easy-peasy. Now all y’all have to do is hope like hell somebody out there still believes y’all’s arrant bullshit…or even cares, for that matter.

Updates, forsooth! Nuts-n-bolts details on Hillary’s™ spectacular Munich self-beclownment, from Nick Arama.

Clinton made a pretty stunning comment that migration had gone “too far, it’s been disruptive and destabilizing.” That’s a big indictment of the Democratic policies over the last several years, whether she understands that or not. The big question was why she was saying it. Was it because she’s trying to paint the Democrats as more moderate than they are as they scream about abolishing ICE? Maybe, but that isn’t going to work, given the mess they made of securing the border and dealing with illegal aliens.

She also appeared to attack the Trump administration’s approach to dealing with the mess that Joe Biden left him, which is a disgraceful thing to do while overseas.

Petr Macinka, a Czech deputy prime minister, took her to task, “First, I think you really don’t like him.”

“You know, that is absolutely true,” Clinton said. Then she tried to tell him what to do when it comes to Trump, “But not only do I not like him, but I don’t like what he’s actually doing to the United States and the world, and I think you should take a hard look at it if you think there is something good that will come of it.” She’s still so burnt that Trump beat her, even ten years later.

Macinka explained that what led to Trump winning was how extreme the left had become. “Well, what Trump is doing in America, I think, is a reaction. Reaction for some policies that really went too far, too far from the regular people.”

He then referred to things like cancel culture, the “woke” revolution, and gender ideologies, while Hillary made faces next to him.

Jeezum H CROW. How any sensible person still takes these retarded assclowns, these nitwit juvenile delinquents, even somewhat seriously is beyond my ken. Does it get even better from there, you ask? Why, yes; yes, it does.

Trump’s best hire?

Posted on February 14, 2026February 14, 2026 by Mike

Can only be the remarkable Marco Rubio for SecState. He just went to Munich and demonstrated why.

Rubio on Fire! We Won’t Be ‘Polite and Orderly Caretakers of the West’s Managed Decline’
Rubio told European leaders that the post–Cold War era is over, that the “euphoria of this triumph led us to a dangerous delusion: that we had entered, quote, ‘the end of history;’ that every nation would now be a liberal democracy; that the ties formed by trade and by commerce alone would now replace nationhood; that the rules-based global order – an overused term – would now replace the national interest; and that we would now live in a world without borders where everyone became a citizen of the world.”

He said that this idea was foolish and “ignored both human nature and it ignored the lessons of over 5,000 years of recorded human history.”

While championing the Donald Trump administration’s America-First foreign policy, he also reaffirmed the bond between our nations, saying that the Western Hemisphere may be our home, but we’re a child of Europe, and we share history, culture, and heritage. “We belong together,” he said.

But he also made it clear that the world has reached a turning point and course correction is required. Europe must save itself because, “we in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West’s managed decline.”

“The fundamental question we must answer at the outset is what exactly are we defending, because armies do not fight for abstractions. Armies fight for a people; armies fight for a nation. Armies fight for a way of life,” he said. “And that is what we are defending: a great civilization that has every reason to be proud of its history, confident of its future, and aims to always be the master of its own economic and political destiny.”

Rubio also spoke of how “we can no longer place the so-called global order above the vital interests of our people and our nations,” and how we must reform global institutions. He used the United Nations as an example, explaining that it has potential to be a “tool for good” but right now, it’s basically useless.

Great, GREAT stuff from the man Trump blithely dismissed as “Little Marco,” hurled right into the teeth of the dying Eurolion in his very den. At this point, I’m happy to say that Trump was all wet on that one; as he has shown again and again during his tenure at State, Marco Rubio is anything BUT “little.”

“He builds”

Posted on February 10, 2026February 11, 2026 by Mike

Hey, remember when Trump was basically razing the White House to the ground so he could put up some kind of Trump Ego Museum or some such shite?

Yeah, about all that.

A Ballroom Built the Trump Way
God gave President Donald Trump the drive to move forward on passion projects; he doesn’t wait for permission slips to prove his competence: He builds.

His latest update on White House ballroom project follows a familiar pattern he’s perfected over the years: on budget, ahead of schedule, and paid for without touching taxpayer dollars.

Trump has stated that the Great Ballroom will serve future presidential inaugurations, turning a long-discussed idea into physical reality, funded largely from his own pocket and additional private donations.

The ballroom project spans roughly 90,000 square feet and includes a new East Wing designed to match the White House’s historic scale. Plans include a 22,000-square-foot banquet hall, office space for the first lady, and additional functional areas for state events.

There are echoes from Trump’s past that revive similar skepticism. Long ago, in a completely different New York City than today’s, the city spent years failing to renovate Wollman Rink in Central Park. Trump watched ballooning costs, stepped in, promised completion in months, and delivered ahead of schedule and under budget.

The rink reopened in 1986 and became profitable.

It’s a great example of the government stalling and private execution finishing the job. That pattern remains intact decades later.

Not to nearly as broad an extent as it ought to, but in Amerika v2.0 you takes whatever small favors you gets.

Facts, faced

Posted on February 10, 2026February 10, 2026 by Mike

After many years as one of Our Side’s most astute, judicious, clear-eyed analysts, Brandon Smith gets right down to the nut-cuttin’.

Civil War 2.0 has, in fact, already kicked off in the form of a well funded far-left insurrection much like what happened in 1917 Russia. The lack of conservative organization in response has been less than impressive, and I’m here to give a warning: We are approaching the point of no return.

Activists are funded by a massive shell game of NGOs hidden behind other NGOs. They are coordinated by hidden online discord servers. They receive their orders and share information in the field through encrypted Signal chats. They are trained in agitation and disruption by anonymous online meet-ups run by covert activist coordinators. They have engaged in violent attacks on ICE agents on hundreds if not thousands of occasions and few of them are ever prosecuted. This is not the behavior of a grassroots protest movement, this is the behavior of an army of covert operatives with special protections.

It’s important to understand that the “protests” are actually a highly coordinated guerrilla campaign – These are not sincere citizens exercising their civil rights. For now their stated motivation is to stop deportations of illegal migrants, but this is just an excuse for their insurgency. If ICE stopped operations tomorrow, the paid activists would simply fabricate another rationale for tearing the country apart. Placating them will accomplish nothing.

They are hostile combatants trying to assert dominance and grow their numbers through posturing. Their goal is the destruction of the western world. This cannot be allowed.

The clear solution would be for the government to shut down hostile NGOs, however, these institutions are protected by corporate personhood and have the same constitutional rights as individual citizens. The process of investigating them and prosecuting them takes time – time we don’t have.

Even if Trump utilized the Insurrection Act and deployed the military, there are not enough troops to lock down more than a handful of US cities. Those people hoping that martial law will resolve the issue are kidding themselves. By extension, leftists stand to gain greater support: Martial law would represent proof to the rest of the world that the administration is indeed “fascist.”

The course of the war will not depend on government intervention, so don’t hold your breath waiting for effective enforcement. The reality is, most activist arrests end with them right back out on the street anyway. Their support apparatus has to be permanently removed, or THEY have to be permanently removed from the equation.

Everything will be decided by regular conservatives. If they organize in large numbers, if they create a funding apparatus to move people and supplies around the country quickly, and if they form proper leadership and training guidelines, then there might be a chance for peace simply by presenting a formidable deterrent. If not, at least the means to put down the insurgency will be available.

If conservatives stay at home and refuse to protect any piece of territory beyond their front gate, they will lose everything. It’s inevitable. The side that wants to win will always have an edge over the side that “just wants to be left alone.”

If there’s one and only one thing we know for sure and certain about the Goosesteppin’ Left at this point, it’s that they are constitutionally incapable of leaving ANYBODY alone.

How we win

If you stand up to them, they will scurry away like the nasty little cockroaches they are.

It’s hard to believe that all we had to do to change the military was to stop backing down.

We went from a disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan to snatching rogue heads of state in their sleep.

It’s hard to believe that all we had to do to change the military was to stop backing down.

We went from a disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan to snatching rogue heads of state in their sleep.

Ending nuclear threats with stunning precision.

Reducing drug deaths in America by orders of magnitude.

And through it all, the ranks swell with recruits. Why?

Because America loves winning, and responds accordingly.

And the only battle casualties belong to the enemy.

Our standards are unforgiving and the results are unforgettable.

Credit where it’s due to the Secretary of War @PeteHegseth, and the force that remembers what it can do when they’re allowed to do it.

Our current reality is unrecognizable from over a year ago. And for that, I am thankful. And I know I’m not alone in thinking that.

Key line here would have to be “…the force that remembers what it can do when they’re allowed to do it,” in my estimation. As for the plaudits for Hegseth, I have to say they’re richly deserved. Far as I know, the guy hasn’t put a foot wrong as SecWar yet.

Mobocracy

Posted on January 9, 2026January 10, 2026 by Mike

Don’t look now, but we’re living in one.

The Moral Blackmailing of the American People
In Springfield, Illinois, in 1838, a young Abraham Lincoln delivered a powerful speech decrying the “ravages of mob law” throughout the land. Lincoln warned, in eerily prescient fashion, that the spread of a then-ascendant “mobocratic spirit” threatened to sever the “attachment of the People” to their fellow countrymen and their nation. Lincoln’s opposition to anarchy of any kind was absolute and clarion: “There is no grievance that is a fit object of redress by mob law.”

Unfortunately, it seems that every few years, Americans must be reminded anew of Lincoln’s wisdom. This week’s lethal Immigration and Customs Enforcement standoff in the Twin Cities is but the latest instance of a yearslong baleful trend.

On Wednesday, 37-year-old “queer activist” Renee Nicole Good was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Good, who had barricaded her vehicle in an attempt to obstruct an active law enforcement operation, ignored agents’ requests to exit the vehicle and instead directed her car at one of the agents. Good actually then hit the agent, who was briefly hospitalized for his injuries. But before she could do even more damage, the agent shot and killed Good. The federal government has called Good’s encounter “an act of domestic terrorism” and said the agent shot in self-defense.

Suffice it to say Minnesota’s Democratic establishment does not see it this way.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey responded to the deployment of 2,000 immigration agents in the area and the deadly encounter by telling ICE to “get the f*** out of Minneapolis,” while Gov. Tim Walz called the shooting “totally predictable” and “totally avoidable.” Frey, who was also mayor during the George Floyd-inspired mayhem of 2020, has lent succor to the anti-ICE provocateurs, seemingly encouraging them to make Good a Floyd-like martyr and riot accordingly. As for Walz, he’s right that this tragedy was eminently “avoidable” — but not for the reasons he thinks. If the Biden-Harris administration hadn’t let in untold millions of unvetted illegal aliens, and if Walz’s administration hadn’t conveniently overlooked hundreds of Minnesotans — of mixed immigration status — defrauding taxpayers to the tune of billions of dollars, ICE never would have embarked on this particular operation.

Liberals and open-border activists play with fire when they so casually compare ICE, as Walz previously has, to a “modern-day Gestapo.” The fact is, ICE is not the Gestapo, President Donald Trump is not Hitler, and Charlie Kirk was not a goose-stepping brownshirt. To pretend otherwise is to deprive words of meaning and to live in the theater of the absurd.

But as dangerous as this rhetoric is for officers and agents, it is the moral blackmail and “mobocratic spirit” of it all that is even more harmful to the rule of law.

Most of us assumed this dispute had been settled once and for all by the early spring of 1865, but apparently we were mistaken.

What I most want to know at this juncture is why in the ever-lovin’ blue-eyed world is Tampon “Timmeh” Waltz, after doing everything his little pea-brain can come up with in the way of fomenting insurrection against the US federal G in his sorry-ass State, has not been locked up under multiple charges of treason already.

The underlying problem all along has been that self-dramatizing Leftist morons have been getting away with personal threats, acts of violence against individuals, arson, looting, and wanton vandalism without ever facing Consequence One for any of it. They snarl ferociously about the supposed “evils” of private property, capitalism, and White People generally but have never been called out for any of their patent hatemongering. They must be forcibly made to understand that the Left’s permanent Get Away With It© card has been revoked, so their usual schtick is just liable to get them ventilated from here on out, as should have been the case all along.

Sorry, shitlibs, no more blanket Leftard Exemption for you. The days of having everything your own way are done. Things are different now, and I promise you ain’t gonna like it. In the immortal words of the great Curtis LeMay:

It’s a damnable shame that it’s come to this, but as I’ve told y’all about a blue million times: WE didn’t ask for it, WE didn’t want it, WE didn’t start it. THEY did.

Update! Number One with a bullet on the (S)Hit List.

Smarmy, smug, obnoxious, unlikable, as always. Also just dumb as a box of hair, too.

Updated update! Brother Billy has hisself an idear, and I gotta say I really, REALLY like it.

So I was thinking
A lot of mentions and RUMINT is that there are NOT enough cops out there to do what needs to be done, and that the White House is, per the usual, dithering on #TIA1807 (ie, the Insurrection Act of 1807—M) because smol-hats and ‘reasons’. OrangeManBad doesn’t WANT to be remembered for invoking the act (even tho right now, he really needs to, if only in Minnesota) and deploying Active Duty Troops.

Cowardly as all get out IMO
HOWEVER -I- thought of something. Remember the talk about granting Letters of Marque a few back BEFORE we snatched Maduro? I got idea… an utterly brutal and completely ruthless idea.

Why not just deputize ANY and ALL Veterans who want to volunteer, under a limited Contract, similar to what was done in Iraq. The DotMil didn’t have enough troops to run convoy escorts for quite a spell, so Blackwater stepped in, and did it quite well. Make it that Prior Contracting experience is a plus, and give us very liberal and open-ended Rules of Engagement.

Shoot First, For God Will Know His Own.

As well as enough Federal Legal Coverage that every. single. shoot. will be considered a “good shoot” and the trigger puller in question doesn’t get prosecuted after the fact at the State Level, due to the Federal Primacy Clause.

Also keep a metric shit-ton of irrevocable blank Presidential Pardons on hand…

Just in Case of later DemoncRat Fuckery years later.

I almost guarantee after the first 200-300 stupid fuckers get shot in the head that this shit’ll end so quick it make Soro’s head spin. And oh yes… Give a list of PRIMARY TARGETS that NEED to be “harvested” for the greater good. I’m pretty sure putting a bounty of $1 Million USD on Alex Soro’s head would attract enough attention to remove him and his Dad from the board. Even if he flees to the EU… lots of people there getting mighty poor and hungry these days from what I heard… for the E.U., make it $100 million, so they have enough to possibly even tempt the Soros Bodyguards on turning on him…

Now wouldn’t THAT be a kick in the head.

Vichy GOPers get RESULTS

Posted on December 29, 2025December 29, 2025 by Mike

Just not ones anybody much wants.

Minnesotans Complained to RINO Congressman Years Ago About Somalis. This Is the Response They Got.
Back in 2023, the Republican Conference in the House of Representatives nominated Rep. Tom Emmer (RINO-Northwest Somalia) to be speaker of the House. Once and future President Donald Trump, however, was less than pleased with the prospect of Emmer as speaker, and said that the “globalist RINO” from Minnesota was “totally out-of-touch with Republican Voters.” Trump worked hard against Emmer’s bid to be speaker, and when Emmer dropped out of the race, Trump took a victory lap, saying: “He’s done. It’s over. I killed him.”

Emmer wasn’t quite politically dead; he didn’t become speaker, but he did become House Majority Whip, a position he still holds. Nevertheless, Trump was right. Emmer was indeed totally out of touch with patriotic voters, as he showed when embattled Minnesota residents tried to bring him their complaints about the massive influx of Somalis into the state. Now that those Somalis have perpetrated a multi-billion-dollar welfare fraud scheme, Emmer’s callous indifference to their concerns looks even worse than it did when he first yawned in the faces of his worried constituents, and chided them for not being more open to diversity.

The Daily Caller reported Monday that back in July 2015, Emmer hosted a town hall event in St. Cloud. Before a packed house in a local bar and grill, one of Emmer’s besieged constituents told the globalist RINO that most of the attendees were there in order to “find out how you feel about assimilation of immigrants.”

The man pointed out the obvious fact that everyone is ignoring, telling Emmer: “We did not ask for those Somalis. Nobody asked us if we, in St. Cloud, want those Somalis. And we understand that social groups, like the Lutheran social service and the Catholic charities, they’re dumping them in areas like St. Cloud.”

That was worthy of a careful and respectful response in itself, but the man continued on, asking Emmer: “OK, and so the question is, how many more are coming? We didn’t ask for these people. Everybody that you read about is talking about this. So that is a main issue in this city. There is no control. The people have no control over any immigration. The mayor doesn’t. I don’t know.”

This was ten years ago, when it was still taken for granted that those who expressed opinions that dissented too sharply from the left’s agenda would be publicly shunned, deplatformed, and silenced. The idea that someone could object to an inundation of unvetted migrants from a jihadi hotspot was still inconceivable in the minds of establishmentarians, and Tom Emmer is and was nothing if not an establishmentarian.

And so Emmer responded to these perfectly reasonable questions and concerns by pushing back against the alleged racism of the questioner. The Minnesota resident must have been suspicious of the Somalis because he was white and they were brown, right? After all, what other possible reason could (he) have had to be suspicious? Emmer went on to insist, in all-out don’t-believe-your-lying-eyes mode, that Somalis were one of “the fastest-assimilating populations.” This prompted groans from his audience, with one man summing up what no doubt many people there were thinking: “Oh, you gotta be kidding me.”

Pure politics as usual…and purely despicable. How much longer will Real Americans allow these reindeer games to go on?

Merry Christmas, Radical Left Scum

Posted on December 25, 2025 by Mike

The funniest President in history lets ‘er rip.

Trump Wishes Merry Christmas to All, Even ‘Radical Left Scum’
President Donald Trump sent Christmas wishes to all Americans on Christmas Eve, singling out the “Radical Left Scum” as recipients.

The magnanimous holiday greetings from Trump included a missive directed at those the president said are holding up his agenda.

His Truth Social post reads:

Merry Christmas to all, including the Radical Left Scum that is doing everything possible to destroy our Country, but are failing badly. We no longer have Open Borders, Men in Women’s Sports, Transgender for Everyone, or Weak Law Enforcement. What we do have is a Record Stock Market and 401K’s, Lowest Crime numbers in decades, No Inflation, and yesterday, a 4.3 GDP, two points better than expected. Tariffs have given us Trillions of Dollars in Growth and Prosperity, and the strongest National Security we have ever had. We are respected again, perhaps like never before. God Bless America!!! President DJT

The most recent in the president’s long string of accomplishments he touted is the 4.3 percent GDP growth posted Tuesday, far surpassing economists’ expectations and the most robust growth since the economy was still rebounding from the pandemic. But the long list of the year’s achievements has given Trump much to be cheerful for this Christmas season.

Not only Trump, but all normal, sane Americans also. Which leaves the Radical left Scum holding a bagful of switches, coal, and…rocks.

Sarah Hucklebee Sanders to anti-Christian dickweeds: GET BENT

Posted on December 25, 2025December 25, 2025 by Mike

The TRUE meaning of Christmas is telling officious, whiny shitlibs to crawl up an armadillo’s ass and die.

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders was feeling the Christmas spirit this week as she gave state employees a generous gift. She announced she would be closing state offices on Friday, December 26th, extending a nice four-day weekend to the state’s employees to spend with their families and celebrate the birth of Jesus.

The birth of Jesus? She can’t say that! She’s a governor.

At least according to the Scrooges at the Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF), an atheist nonprofit organization that, in their words, works to keep state and church separate.

Sarah’s e-mail really got the agitated atheist’s tinsel in a twist.

The angry elves at FFRF couldn’t let this stand, and they jumped into action, pounced, if you will. They sent a letter to the Governor demanding that she rescind the statement, claiming it violated the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause. Going even further, they demanded that she no longer use her office to promote ‘Christian Mythology’ as truth.

Next, this happened.

The @FFRF took issue with me closing state offices to celebrate Christmas and sent a letter demanding I rescind my proclamation.

Christmas isn’t a just a holiday, it’s the celebration of Jesus Christ’s birth. Meaning matters, we won’t pretend otherwise.

Y’know, her dad would’ve benefited tremendously from a lot more of his daughter’s backbone and feistiness back when he was in politics.

“Please know that I will do no such thing.” Epic! Also, LEGEND! I think I maybe came in my pants a little just now.

Parasites

Posted on December 16, 2025 by Mike

And, as parasites always do, the pAntiFa variety is going hell-bent for leather to kill off its host. In fact, that’s for all intents and purposes the characteristic that defines them as parasites and not, say, symbiotes or something else more or less benign.

Here is a pamphlet that is being distributed by the insurgents (pdf warning, but it’s hosted here) at ANTIFA and BLM. It’s called “Why we break windows.” Here is an excerpt:

property destruction is an effective tactic. From the Boston Tea Party to the demonstrations against the 1999 World Trade Organization summit in Seattle, property destruction has been an essential part of many struggles. It can pressure or punish opponents by inflicting an economic cost.

You know what else punishes opponents who would break my shit? Bullets. That doesn’t mean that shooting people is a valid form of discussion or protest. Then the rationalize it thusly:

Shop windows represent segregation. They are invisible barriers. Like so much in this society, they simultaneously offer a view of “the good life” and block access to it. In a polarizing economy, shop windows taunt the poor with commodities they cannot afford, status and security they will accumulate so much wealth at everyone else’s expense. In this situation, never attain. For millions upon millions, the healthy food, medicines, and other goods they need are the breadth of an entire social class away from them, a gulf they will not cross in a lifetime of hard work—a gulf represented by half an inch of plate glass.

Property rights are anathema to commies. They don’t want to work for it, but they want it. So they take it. At the end of the day, that is socialism and communism is- the theft of goods and services, wrapped up in a pretty bow. That’s why so many who espouse these theories imagine themselves as sitting around writing shitty poetry while other, less educated and intelligent folks, slave away in the gulags.

Follows, DiveMedic’s pithy thoughts as to what might be done:

Still, I am not here to psychoanalyze their behavior. The point of this post is twofold:

To show that there is no discussion, reasoning, or changing the minds of those who are trying to overthrow our very way of life, and

To point out that there is only one way out of this, albeit with two possible outcomes

This is the reasoning that they give for breaking windows:

It is not a coincidence that shop windows have been targeted in protests against police violence. Businesses, be they multinational or local, are the tax base that pays for police, and without police they would not be able to addressing protests directly to the police is oblique, for the police answer to business owners and politicians, not to public opinion. It is much more direct to target their bosses, the capitalists themselves. Cost them enough money in smashed windows, and maybe they’ll think twice about what kind of policing they call for.

They are wrong. The police aren’t there to keep the poor people poor. No, the police are there to ensure that the accused receive a free trial. If the police cease protecting society from those who would destroy their property, those who wish to protect their property will simply begin killing those who would destroy and steal their property. The posse rides out in search of the horse thief, then the posse returns with the horse but not the thief.

They sure do seem to be counting on a heck of a lot of assumptions which are not now, nor have ever been, in evidence, don’t they? Fine by me, though; let’s all just see how well that works out for ‘em ere the end.

Echoes

Posted on November 30, 2025November 30, 2025 by Mike

It’s more than just my vanity talking when I say this dude sounds a lot like me.

Apocalypse Now?
I am not prone to doomsday thinking, but neither am I unrealistically optimistic. When President Trump won the election for a second term (against overwhelming odds) in 2024, I understood that the nation had not been “saved” from the radical Left’s destructive policies; we had merely gotten a reprieve. Still, events this year, since Trump 2.0 took office, make me wonder if the polity is too divided, too debased, too indoctrinated, and too detached from “traditional American values” to survive as a democratic republic committed to the rule of law. For the first time in my life, I am concerned about the survival of the United States—not from a foreign threat, but from within.

Blue states and blue cities that had declared themselves “sanctuaries” for the millions of Third World invaders have now become the epicenter of a secession-like resistance to the enforcement of federal immigration law. Democrats’ frantic efforts to demonize, obstruct, and endanger ICE, with the active assistance of rogue judges, amount to an insurrection. Democrats seek to prevent the deportation of, and to grant de facto amnesty to, the millions of illegal aliens who flooded our borders under Biden—foiling our immigration laws. The only possible explanation is that Democrats hope to transform the electorate with Third World detritus, to whom they intend to grant de jureamnesty (and voting rights), thereby ensuring perpetual political control by presiding over the resulting welfare state.

This is not new—indeed, it has been going on for deacdes in California–but I had hoped the American public would rise up and oppose the Democrats’ Kevorkian-like national assisted suicide when it became apparent that importing the Third World was a conscious strategy to ruin America. Just look at the Somali enclaves in Minnesota and the Muslim enclaves in Michigan. They did not happen by accident. The massive influx of illegal aliens with foreign customs, attitudes, and beliefs—unwilling to assimilate and hostile to our culture–erodes the civic glue that binds us together as Americans. Thus, blue city voters elected a socialist pro-Palestinian Muslim as mayor of New York City, and the radical Left’s reaction to the assassination of a National Guard member by an unvetted Afghan refugee in the nation’s capital is to blame President Trump for deploying the National Guard.

Where is the outrage at widespread predation and fraud by foreign invaders?

Isolated in whatever tiny pockets of old-school Real Americanism that still exist, that’s where. Which indicates that the only realistic answer to the question posed in Pulliam’s title is that, much as we may need one right about now, there is in fact no “apocalypse” coming, neither in the short nor the long term.

Apocalypse now? Apocalypse NEVER, more like.

Lots more yet and, grim and depressing though it surely is, you must read all of this one, folks.

Civics primer

Posted on November 29, 2025 by Mike

A civics lesson in movie-review mufti.

Constitutional purists, in the main, adhere to the judicial philosophy of ‘originalism.’ That is, they do not believe the Constitution and its Amendments are evolving or subject to change in meaning based on the mood of the times. They try to understand the contemporaneous intent of the words by those who wrote them.

Those of us of a certain age will likely think this just too durned obvious for words, while for most of you young whelps out there it will probably come as real news.

Another civics lesson, complete with obligatory CF-style digression, that’s been languishing in the “Local Drafts” folder for a goodish while now, presented in full below the fold.

What Coleman said.

“Please, no lectures about 3000-year-old kingdoms while standing in a US city collecting US benefits. The patience of the people who built this country in record time & still pay for most of the world’s defense & foreign aid is wearing thin.”

PREACH it, bruh.

Off with their masks!

Forcibly, violently, and painfully, thanks to the great and powerful Wizard of Oz Musk.

Elon Musk’s zeal for truth reveals the online frauds aiming to divide us
On Friday Elon Musk, having figured out that a lot of influential X accounts weren’t what they claimed to be, activated an X feature showing where users were actually posting from — and uncovered (at least) a million lies.

Turns out a lot of users claiming to be disillusioned Trump voters, or anti-Israel Americans, are actually foreign frauds.

Like the one that posted: “Trump is Israel First. I’m done with MAGA. I hope Republicans lose.”

Americans turning on Trump over Israel?

Nope. The account was based in Turkey.

Likewise the woke-right “groyper” movement supposedly elevating white supremacist Nick Fuentes seems to be largely a foreign sham, and “Ron Smith, MAGA Hunter,” a prolific anti-Trump poster with a substantial following, turns out to be from Kenya.

Many users billing themselves as “Native American” with accounts specializing in divisive racial attacks on white people are actually foreign, and mostly from Bangladesh.

And so on, and so on.

Awful lot of jihadi weird-beards skulking behind those online guises, same-same with the ostensible Paleosimians whining about being the victims of “genocide” in Gaza from their homes in Turkey, Kenya, or Poland. Crack on Netanyahu, Israel, and (((***Dem JooJooJooJOOOOOOZ!!!***))) all you like, but don’t go acting all shocked and butthurt to learn that the people you’re associating yourself with online ain’t necessarily the people you think they are.

Kudos to Elon for yanking the rug right out from under certain unworthy, deceitful frauds, thereby prompting plenty of long-overdue attitude adjustment into the bargain. Kinda pathetic that so many of us so badly needed reminding of the most basic rule of online existence: Nothing, and I do mean NOTHING, is as it seems here. On the Innarnuts you either take absolutely everything with a YUUUGE grain of salt, or you just aint tall enough for this ride yet, kid.
