Argentina’s Javier Milei Says He ‘Deeply Admires’ Trump, Supports Venezuela Naval Strikes
Argentine President Javier Milei emphasized his admiration and support for American counterpart Donald Trump in an interview with the British Telegraphon Monday, praising Trump as a peacemaker and clear-minded leader.

Milei also suggested that he would support American military efforts against the illegitimate narco-regime in Venezuela, led by dictator Nicolás Maduro – and, further, that the demise of both the Venezuelan regime and its patrons in Cuba would bring a net benefit to humanity.

President Trump has authorized significant military action against drug traffickers linked to the Maduro regime in the Caribbean, including “Operation Southern Spear” targeting drug-carrying boats believed to be trafficking cocaine. He also announced in December that he would declare the Maduro regime itself a terrorist organization and blockade Venezuela’s attempts to transport sanctioned oil, citing the expropriation of American company properties by Maduro and predecessor Hugo Chávez.

Milei spoke to the Telegraph in the context of that newspaper’s world leader rankings, which placed Milei in third place; the newspaper has yet to reveal who it placed in the top two spots, though Milei was preceded by Syrian jihadist President Ahmed al-Sharaa in fourth place. Milei responded to questions about his assessment of the second Trump administration and his relationship with the American head of state, asserting that he “deeply admires Trump” and praising him for having “managed to end nine wars.” Milei had revealed in October that he nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize during a visit to the White House. This year’s award ultimately went to Venezuelan freedom fighter María Corina Machado, who dedicated her award to Trump.

Milei assessed that Trump’s strength lay in the fact that “he is someone who is very clear that the enemy is socialism.” Milei himself, the first president anywhere in the world to win the position as an explicitly libertarian third-party candidate, has also spent much of his career condemning socialism as a plague that “infects” the world, one of the many arms of what he refers to as “collectivism” that also includes communism, social democrats, and other variants.

Preach it, Mr President, sir. In another encouraging development elsewhere, Chile has upped its game as well with a liberty-, tradition-, and capitalism-oriented President of its own.

Chile’s new president, Jose Antonio Kast, is good news for the U.S.
Trump is in a position to create a true freedom bloc with his new friend in Chile.

President Donald Trump has rightly put his finger on several countries with poor leadership, especially in the E.U. with its failures controlling illegal immigration, managing its own national defenses, and maintaining a robust domestic economy.

But some good news has emerged in a critical Latin American country that has listened to its voters, and taken back the kind of fundamentally conservative, national priority policies that President Trump stands for.

The U.S. needs smarter partners in the world economy, and Chile has just become one of them: a new potential ally in reasserting a stable international order, based on fundamental principles of national sovereignty and independent strength. Chile’s election also gives confidence to the rest of Latin America that destructive socialist ideology can be successfully defeated.

José Antonio Kast has a strong pragmatic background.

Even the New York Times couldn’t overlook his prospects (“Conservative Wins Resoundingly in Chile’s Presidential Election, December 14th), and that Chile is thereby creating a larger conservative realignment among other neighboring countries including Argentina and Bolivia.

Kast ran on reversing violent crime, and deporting undocumented migrants that, like the U.S., have flooded his country. He remains unapologetic about his larger Catholic values, and has focused on social order and economic development. Chile has a strong pedigree in economic innovation, and those prospects have been reignited.

Good on ya, President Kast. The world needs as many like you as it can get, most especially after the disastrous run of inept, corrupt, and sleazy Leftist national “leaders” we saw over the past several decades.

Time for some truth

Posted on      by     

EXCELLENT rundown of a few historical realities that are sure to stick in certain craws.

So here’s the truth.

The Jews are not foreigners in Israel. They are the world’s oldest continuous nation in the land, with a history there stretching back nearly four millennia. Insofar as their ancient ancestors thoroughly intermarried with their Canaanite predecessors, the history in the land of the descendants of those unions goes back even further: they are literally the original owners of the land. The Jews built kingdoms in that land before Rome — not just the empire but the city itself —existed, they worshiped in Jerusalem millennia before Muhammad, and those in exile prayed for return unceasingly, reassuring one another throughout: “Next year in Jerusalem”.

Israel is not a colony. It’s a restoration.

Nor is the modern State of Israel some Zionist invention, or an exercise of British imperial fiat. In 1947, the United Nations voted overwhelmingly to establish Israel, partitioning the remaining 20% of the Palestine Mandate into two states: one Jewish, one Arab. The Jews accepted. The Arabs declared a war of annihilation, just three years after the Holocaust, a war the Jews won.

Why do those two facts alone not settle this once and for all?

Oh, and that other 80%? Already given to the Palestinian Arabs in 1922, the modern Kingdom of Jordan. In 1947, the UN sought to give half the remainder — the 20% set aside for a Jewish homeland — to the Arabs as well. That’s 90% for the Arabs, just 10% for the indigenous Jews.

If those Palestinians who refuse to live in peace in Israel (which they may do), and refuse to live peacefully beside the Jews in the so-called “territories” (which they may also do), wish to live peacefully somewhere, what is wrong with the 80% of Palestine on the East Bank of the Jordan? Do these colonizers really need 100%? And why would anyone agree to such an absurdity?

The Jews did not ask for 100%, or even 50%. The Jews accepted the UN’s terms in peace. The Arabs responded with an attempted genocide, not just by the Palestinian Arabs themselves but also the surrounding Arab states. The Israeli victory is nothing short of a miracle. Nor did the Arabs stop there: they expelled vast Jewish communities from their countries, minorities who had lived continuously in those lands for as much as 2,700 years.

Israel is not a “settler colony.” The State of Israel was founded by and through international law. Virtually the entire world agreed that there must be a Jewish state, just as there must be an Indian state, and a Kenyan state, and a Polish state, and a French state. Israel’s existence rests not on imperial decree but on the consensus of the nations, and on the same principle of self-determination that birthed nearly every nation in the modern world.

By contrast, the Arabs now calling themselves “Palestinians” are not indigenous. Their presence begins with the Muslim conquest, millennia after the Jews. Jews still lived in the land, then and always, even after Rome had expelled many of them. And most of the ancestors of today’s Palestinians are recent arrivals as well, settling in the wasteland the area had become under the Turks only after the Jews began to develop it, “making the desert bloom”. They came to benefit from Jewish enterprise. Now they want to steal what the Jews built.

The irony is glaring: those who arrived by imperial sword now claim the mantle of the native, while the true indigenous people are smeared as colonizers.

But…but…but…butbutbut…THEY HAVE BIG, HOOKED NOSES! AND THEY’RE GREEDY, JUST OBSESSED WITH MONEY!! AND THEY STICK TO THEIR OWN KIND, LIKE SOME KIND OF CLAN OR TRIBE OR SOMETHING!!! AND THEY CONTROL ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!!! AND…AND…AND…

Of Pride and covenants

Posted on      by     

GREAT story here. Almost makes me want to start watching Major League Baseball again…almost.

Dodger Great Clayton Kershaw Makes Quiet Statement About Pride Night, Leftist Heads Explode
Friday the 13th was Pride Night at Dodger Stadium; unfortunately, like other major league baseball teams, the Dodgers have so far neglected to announce when Anger Night, Lust Night, and Envy Night will be. On Pride Night, however, everyone — players as well as fans — is expected to join in the gay (in the old sense as well as the new) celebrations of sexual deviance, perversion, and obsession, trans madness, and all that comes with all those things. This being one of the foremost feast days on the calendar of the leftist religion, dissidents, of course, will not be tolerated, as Dodger great Clayton Kershaw is finding out.

Kershaw didn’t pitch in Friday’s game, but he drew a considerable notice anyway. The Dodgers were requiring their players to wear special caps on which the team’s “LA” logo was rendered in rainbow colors, and Kershaw obliged. He did, however, mount a quiet protest of his own, wearing a rainbow-LA cap on which was written “GEN 9:12-16.”

That, of course, is the verse in which God makes his pledge to not just Mankind but all the world, promising that never again would He send His flood waters over the Earth, thereby exterminating every living thing on it. The rainbow is the symbiol of said covenant, to wit:

And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”

Naturally, once they’d been informed of what the rainbow logo on Kershaw’s cap signified, the Left reacted exactly as coolly, tolerantly, and rationally as one would expect of them.

In context, this was God pledging to be merciful, and to spare sinful humanity rather than destroying it again, as He did with Noah’s flood. But even a reminder of God’s mercy is enough to set the haters of God into a frenzy, and this time, Kershaw was the target. One X user wrote succinctly: “Clayton Kershaw is a f**king LOSER.”

Without a trace of irony, another X user wrote: “Clayton Kershaw will always be a Dodger great, but it’s things like this that make him a lot less likable. Just wear the hat. Be a tolerant Christian and accept that there are others who believe differently than you.”

Um. Would someone kindly point out to me just where exactly Kershaw uttered Word One stating—nay, even so much as hinting—that he felt otherwise? ‘Cause I’m having trouble locating that bit here. Then again, my search-engine Web Fu ain’t what it used to be, I do confess it.

In the left’s universe, tolerance is a virtue that Christians are required to demonstrate whenever the left wants to force its agenda upon the unconverted and unwilling. It is never, ever a virtue that leftists must display toward Christians.

Imagine, by way of example, a vastly different American culture, in which the Dodgers celebrated “Christian night,” and all the players were required to wear caps featuring little crosses above the LA logo. And imagine if a Muslim player on the team wrote “AN-NISA 157” on his cap, referring to the Qur’an verse that says that Jesus was not crucified or even killed. There is no doubt whatsoever that this dissenting player would immediately become a hero on the left, with Jake Tapper and Don Lemon and the girls at The View lining up to sing his praises. 

But there’s dissent and there’s dissent. Clayton Kershaw doesn’t belong to the left’s favorite traditional religion; he adheres to the one they hate the most. As such, his dissent is absolutely unacceptable. Will the Dodgers discipline him, or at least apologize for his little display? Don’t be surprised.

Nope. The real surprise would be if the Dodgers’ high corporate muckety-mucks didn’t tear him a new asshole for this clear and obvious Hate Crime, and instead decided to back Kershaw’s right to freedom of expression and relligious belief to the hilt. I won’t be holding my breath waiting for it, and neither should you.

Tulsi stumbles

Posted on      by     

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.

“Little Marco” Rubio: another more or less run of the mill, MOR Repugnicrat who suddenly found he had hisself a pair of heavy, clanking Big Brass Ones© swingin’ after taking a cabinet position in the Trump v2.0 admin.

MUST WATCH: Rubio Makes Van Hollen Look Like a Fool During Senate Hearing
Secretary of State Marco Rubio appeared before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations on Tuesday morning. According to the State Department, he was there to discuss the FY26 Department of State Budget Request. Having watched most of the hearing myself, I think he was just there to have old white people and Cory Booker act like condescending jerks.

A few things stood out. One, some of these senators are incredibly ignorant about the way the world works outside of the United States and don’t need to be on any committee related to foreign policy. Two, Rubio is a thousand times smarter than most of these people put together — if it wasn’t so satisfying to watch, I’d be suffering from secondhand embarrassment for some of these senators after watching the secretary wipe the smug smiles off their faces with his facts and inability to be shaken.

But the exchange that stood out the most was the one between Rubio and Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) — you know, the senator whom no one knew existed until he boarded a flight to El Salvador to wine and dine a human trafficker, wife-beater, and gang banger.

Rather than use his time to actually ask Rubio questions — even crazy Tim Kaine managed to actually do that — Van Hollen spent seven minutes berating the Secretary on everything from USAID to revoking visas from students with ties to terrorism and, of course, his favorite topic: Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

He even attacked Rubio personally. “I have to tell you directly and personally that I regret voting for you as Secretary of State,” he said at the end of his remarks.

Rubio — after asking committee chairman Sen. Jim Risch (R-Idaho) if he could respond, given that Van Hollen never actually asked a question — didn’t miss a beat. “Your regret voting for me confirms I’m doing a good job.”

Good as that is, it gets even better from there, if you can believe it. Marco Rubio is probably the last guy in the world I ever thought I’d say this about—meek, soft-spoken, and diffident as he’s always come across—but whatever he may or may not have been before, clearly Rejuve Rubio ain’t about to take a nickel’s worth of shit from anybody now, much less a slithering Swamp critter like Chris “Bend Me Over & Make Me Love It, Nancy” Van Hollen (D-Rumpswab). Who knew? Rubio went from “polite, pliable, pushover” to “full-bore firebrand, stay back from cage 20 ft” in zero (0) seconds flat.

Basically, then, this Van Hollen dimbulb made the classic rookie error of bringing a knife to a gunfight, whereupon “Little Marco” wasted not a single moment before implementing the appropriate countermeasures upside CVH’s punkin’ haid, to the delight of rubbernecking loafers, passersby, idlers, and avid, season ticket-holding fans of Team MAGA!™ alike. Well done, Secretary Rubio sir, well done indeed.

Not our allies—NOT!!!

The only genuine, real-deal aliies we have in the ME, actually. Damned (((JooJooJooJOOOOOOOZ!!!!)))

Oh wait, I forgot about Iran. Sorry for the slip-up, shitwits.

Israel Eliminates All Tariffs on U.S. Imports Ahead of ‘Liberation Day’
Israel has announced the removal of all remaining tariffs on imports from the United States, effective immediately. This decision, directed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and implemented by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Economy and Industry Minister Nir Barkat, aims to strengthen economic ties with the U.S. and potentially reduce the cost of living in Israel.

The Prime Minister’s Office, Finance Ministry and Economy and Industry Ministry released a joint statement, saying:

“At the directive of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Economy and Industry Minister Nir Barkat, Israel has cancelled all of the customs duties that have been levied until now on products from the US, Israel’s largest trading partner.

After the approval of the Knesset Finance Committee and the Economy and Industry Minister’s signature on the order, the amendment to the order regarding trade levies and protective measure will take effect and customs duties on all imports from the US will be cancelled.”

The U.S. and Israel have maintained a free trade agreement since 1985, resulting in approximately 99% of U.S. goods entering Israel tariff-free. The newly eliminated tariffs primarily affected a limited number of products, mainly in the food and agricultural sectors. In 2024, Israel’s exports to the U.S. totaled $17.3 billion, with services exports estimated at $16.7 billion.

Prime Minister Netanyahu emphasized that removing these tariffs aligns with his longstanding policy of opening Israel’s market to competition, diversifying the economy, and lowering living costs. He highlighted that this move not only benefits the Israeli economy and its citizens but also reinforces the special relationship between Israel and the United States.

Huh. How reasonable, helpful, and downright democratic of the hook-nosed Kike, eh?

Although Israel and the US have had and always will have their differences, squabbles, and divergences of national interest and/or policy—remember, nation-states don’t have friends, they have alliances, which are constantly shifting and evolving—the above-referenced “special relationship” is of tremendous benefit to both countries, in all sorts of ways. None but a fool, an infantile political naif, or a fanatical Jew-hating ignoramus would ever dream of contending otherwise.

You might not care much for Jews, even actively dislike them, which is jake with me. Certainly, the hardships, persecution, and ceaseless hostility Jews have faced across well over three millennia have inculcated and intensified a fair few unappealing habits of mind and personality traits in the Jewish people—a suffocating, quasi-pathological (albeit understandable, given the historical record) paranoia beng but one of those.

Growing up in the small-town South of the 1960s, my own experience of Jewish people was quite limited, to put it mildly. Until I moved to NYC, I had known precisely one (1) Jewish person my whole life: a downtown-Mt Holly clothing store owner and proprietor name of Julius Goldstein, who was a lovely, gracious, warm-hearted man. Mr Goldstein always had a moment to spare for a kindly, gentle word with a stone-bored young ‘un chafing to be anyplace but trapped in Goldstein’s establishment while my mom browsed through the dresses, blouses, hats, shoes, and such-like rubbish.

What with this bestowal of attention and sincere affection, plus a pocket full of those wonderful old Dum-Dum lollipops in assorted flavors (BUTTERSCOTCH! YESSSS!!!), dear old Mr Goldstein made what would have been an ordeal comparable to a trip to the dentist at least something close to bearable, bless his generous heart.

Years later in NYC I worked for an Israeli Jew who, although I hugely enjoyed wasting half my shift sitting by the front counter soaking up Jack’s colorful (crimson, mainly) reminiscences of his years of wartime soldiering with the IDF back in the Bad Old 1970s Days of nearly continual combat with various Arab states*, before he made the big move to Jew York Shitty (heh, sorry), was clearly and unapologetically an asshole stem to stern. After a few months of that I became friends with a smattering of other Jews my own age over my five-year stint in the Big Rotten Apple; these ones ran the gamut from friendly, personable young men and (mostly, who knows why) women to complete and utter pricks and/or cunts, same as with every other nationality or ethnicity I’ve ever spent any time around.

So yeah, go right ahead and hate on the Jews if you want; although I neither share nor much respect your blanket antipathy, I’m pretty much the last guy on Earth who’s likely to give you a ration of shit about it. Right up to the point, that is, where you start in trying to persuade me that our “natural allies” in the Middle East are actually the murderin’ Moslem savages and their godawful shitrapies. I don’t hold with that horsepuckey, not even a weency bit I don’t, and I never will.

See, I still remember the ghastly mid-morning hours of 9/11/01 MUCH too vividly to ever just sit back and passively listen to Word One of that noisome, toxic guff without positioning the battle-rifle for imminent action; checking my backstop; confirming I have a good, solid cheek-weld; chambering that all-important first round; and returning fire just as fast ’n’ furious as I can possibly manage, sorry.

Sending hot lead downrange in mass quantities: ain’t nothing like it but more of it. Ya feelin’ me here, bubba?

*I think it’s worth delving a little deeper into those endless wars of the 70s. Think of it: a 10 mile wide strip of dusty land, whose military is primarily made up not of full-time professional soldiers but of semi-trained civilians called up in extremis from their jobs, homes, and businesses for however long the war lasts.This ragtag collection of part-timers fought against the national militaries of several Arab nations which were all much bigger, more populous, better-equipped in terms of both quality of hardware and sheer numbers…and not merely held them off, but kicked their scraggly asses all to Hell and gone, again and again and again!

You’d think those bigger, stronger Arab states so thoroughly humiliated by (((Dem Pesky JooJooJooJOOOOZ!))) might have learned from those painful experiences, after eight or ten unsuccessful tries, and finally given up trying to fuck with their indomitable, battle-hardened Israelite adversaries as a bad job. But NOOOO…

The Milei Miracle?

Posted on      by     

Hardly. No, merely the triumph of simple common sense and hard-nosed reality over muzzy “pie in the sky bye & bye” Leftard shitwittery, that’s all. As Limbaugh used to say, it’s worked every time it’s been tried.

Have you heard about the so-called Argentinian economic miracle? I have news: there is no miracle. This is a lie.

I am the chairman of President Milei’s council of advisors, and I want you to know that there is no miracle here at all.

You read that correctly. No miracle whatsoever.

What you are witnessing is the most impressive turnaround in the country’s history.

We slashed wasteful spending that once enriched the few at the expense of the many.

We brought down inflation—a tax that disproportionately burdens the poor. As a result, we lowered poverty rates by more than 11% and lifted millions out of poverty.

We eliminated the thousands of pickets that made travel across the country a nightmare. Imagine the relief of breathing in fresh air after years of suffocating congestion.

Welfare programs? The left’s favorite: they mostly served politicians. They even stole food from the poor. Yes. They stole food from the poor. 

Now, welfare flows directly to those who need it most.

At the core of our strategy, we eradicated the source of the macroeconomic instability that had plagued our nation for so long: we eliminated the fiscal deficit. We now run a fiscal surplus, which has dramatically reduced our country risk—from the 3000s to the 700s.

A miracle, some say? How dare they!

This is not a miracle. This is hard work. This is putting the country first, not politicians.

Why is the opposition protesting so fervently? Not because they care for the people or the nation, but because they fear the truth—that they have been the problem all along. Their time is over.

Again, this is not a miracle.

This is hard work. This is having a vision, formulating a plan, and executing it without fear. This is having the guts to do what is right. This is president @JMilei leadership. 

The jig is up for the left. They have nothing, and they never did. They do not love the poor. They love poverty.

Now, tell me again that this is a miracle.

We didn’t know it was impossible—so we did it.

Viva la libertad, carajo!

Amen, brother-man.

JD Vance is truly a national treasure.

JD Vance to Young Men: Don’t Let Them Turn You Into ‘Androgynous Idiots’
Not too long ago, I decided to try a bold experiment. I returned to the University of Georgia to take some agriculture classes. The reason I considered it bold is that I was old enough to be many of the students’ mothers (had I been an extremely young teen mom, of course). I learned a lot of lessons about this current generation of teens and twenty-somethings and how college has changed since my first go-round two decades prior, but what really threw me was when a professor asked for my pronouns.

My class was given a virtual assignment to upload a video introduction of ourselves to a school website. “Tell us your name, your major, your hobbies and interests, and your pronouns so your classmates can gain a better understanding of who you are.” I’d never been asked to provide my pronouns in my life and had no interest in starting now. Before I uploaded my video, I watched through some of the others, shocked as these young men and women offered up their “hes” and “shes” and “theys” as if this was all perfectly normal.

But there was one guy, let’s call him Tyler, who gave us his name, his major, and his hobbies and interests, but instead of pronouns, he ended the video with “I’m a dude” and a slight eye roll, obviously mocking the pronoun situation. Let me tell you, he’s the only person from that class I even remember, much less ever gained any sort of understanding of who he was.

Well, JD Vance just gave all the other Tylers of the world permission to crawl out from under their rocks of submission and embrace their God-given masculinity.

On behalf of women — well, the ones who enjoy being women — I would like to say thank you to our vice president.

Vance spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Monday and said a lot of great things, some of which even earned him a standing ovation. But it was his message to young people, especially young men, that really stood out.

My message to young men is don’t allow this broken culture to send you a message that you’re a bad person because you’re a man, because you like to tell a joke, because you like to have a beer with your friends, or because you’re competitive. The cultural message…wants to turn everybody, whether male or female, into androgynous idiots who think the same, talk the same, and act the same. We actually think God made male and female for a purpose, and we want you guys to thrive as young men, and as young women. And we’re going to help with our public policy to make it possible to do that.

I don’t know about you, but I could listen to that over and over again. There’s a reason why Donald Trump won 49% of the vote from young men (ages 18 to 29) in November and 54% from men overall. Vance touched on that too.

I think this is why young men in particular are so, you know, they’re so inspired by President Trump is because he doesn’t allow the media to tell him he can’t make a joke or he can’t have an original thought. President Trump just says what’s on his mind; that’s a damn good thing.

Amen to that. “We’re fighting for you,” was Vance’s overall message to young people, and it was refreshing to hear. Our country doesn’t just face international enemies — we’re under attack from enemies within who want to debase and degrade our culture.

They’re the ones who want to tell young men that they can’t be masculine and tell women they can’t be feminine. They’re the ones who demand that boys play girls’ sports, who insist that teachers force gender ideology on elementary school students, and who truly believe there are 72 genders.

Well, yeah. Nice thing is, they’re all complete and total psychopaths, so we got that going for us at least.

Coolest. Gift. EVAR!

Elon Musk is no stranger to using physical props to make a point – After his purchase of social media giant Twitter, which shocked the political left to their core, he famously entered corporate headquarters on day one with a bathroom sink in his hands. “Let that sink in” became a mantra and a meme as Musk proceeded to fire around 80% of the bloated leftist company’s staff without any visible decline in operational ability.

The day Javier Milei was sworn in as president he shuttered 13 ministries and fired over 30,000 government bureaucrats. Argentina’s economy has been a train wreck for almost three decades due to socialist mismanagement and out of control debt spending. The country has been indebted to the IMF for many years and was suffering from multiple bouts of hyperinflation since 2001. Milei ran on a Libertarian platform and his campaign promise was to eliminate government waste. He went on to reduce spending by 30% and cut monthly inflation from 25% down to 2.7%.

By all accounts, Milei’s administration has been a resounding success in terms of economic reform and he has proven that Austrian economics work in practice and not just in theory. His open disdain for the political left was refreshing to see in a political candidate – Much like Trump, he has not been afraid to say what he really thinks of progressives.

After a decade of woke authoritarianism (much of it funded with American tax dollars) it’s hard to argue with anything he says here. Milei’s disdain for the political left is only matched by his disdain for big government. His favorite campaign prop was a chainsaw, representing his intent to chop the fat off the bureaucracy.

The saw blade is engraved with Milei’s catchphrase, “Viva la libertad carajo!,” which roughly translates to “Long live freedom, Goddammit!” Musk wielded the chainsaw on stage at CPAC, swinging it wildly. Thankfully the machine appeared to be inert, otherwise Musk probably would have cranked it into action and run around the stage with it.

The saw is a real beaut; best picture I’ve seen of it so far would have to be this one:

See what I mean? Thanks for all you do, Javier.

Confirmed!

Probably* the most important cabinet position this time around and the one the deep state worked hard to stop.

Kash Patel Confirmed

*perhaps Hegseth at defense is slightly ahead in importance. Perhaps.

Strom sees the Trumpian light. Kinda, sorta, a little bit. What the hey: baby steps, man, baby steps.

I Was Wrong About Trump
No, I am not in love with Trump. He still makes me cringe sometimes, and I still don’t understand the Canada/51st state thing at all, and want nothing to do with Gaza if he is serious about that.

He should make ALL of us cringe sometimes, and anybody who agrees with Trump’s every policy, position, and statement every single time needs to see a shrink and have his head checked. Can’t remember who first coined the phrase (Milton Friedman, maybe? Eh, dunno), but it’s right as rain: if you find yourself agreeing with anyone in the political arena 99 percent of the time, then one at least of you is almost certainly insane…and it’s probably you. True then, true now, true forever.

But there are two vital things about him which I got completely, totally, and without question wrong.

Walter Kirn slapped me in the face (not literally) with a single tweet…

Boom. At least it was a “boom” for me, because I was one of those people who was absolutely certain that Trump was too immature, too narcissistic, and too lacking in self-awareness to put his ego in check and hire the best people and support them. More than that, Trump has withstood weeks of attacks on his “ceding power” to “President Musk.”

And he has shrugged it all off and pushed his collaborators to the front, empowered them, and backed them every step along the way despite the Democrats and the Pravda Media baiting him hourly on how weak he appears.

As the Democrats and the Pravda Media scream about “President Musk,” Donald Trump invites him to give a press conference in the Oval Office with Little X running around. Trump seems so comfortable in his own skin that the richest man in the world waxing about his role in the government isn’t threatening at all; he invited it, and handed the mic over to him.

Same with Kennedy. Same with Gabbard.

I was also wrong about another issue that is perhaps even more important: his competence to take on the Deep State and win.

During his first term, I came to the conclusion that Trump didn’t understand government well enough and that by the end of his term, he hadn’t destroyed the Deep State, but rather they destroyed him. I stand by my assessment of the success of the Deep State. It hobbled him in his first term, which ended with the annus horribilis of 2020. The Deep State ran the United States in 2020, leading to Trump’s narrow defeat in the 2020 election.

As Trump himself has said several times of late, he squandered most of his first term listening to bad advice from people he believed to be his friends but were in actuality no such thing. He has learned from those mistakes, and it shows.

Believe it or not, even some normal people are scared enough about change and still trust the Democrats enough to buy the “woe is me” propaganda, but enough people are waking up that the Democrats are in a losing battle. Trump won’t win every fight, but he is wracking up a lot of wins.

I supported Ron DeSantis in the primaries because I thought Trump would have the will to fight, but not a winning strategy.

I was wrong. Trump might still be stopped, but it won’t be due to his inherent weaknesses. He is performing masterfully.

He is at that, and deserves full credit for it.

Update! Even shitlib ABC journalismist Jon Karl is forced to own up to the painful truth:


YEEEEOWTCH! You know saying that had to hurt him like a hydrochloric acid-dipped shiv to the heart.

Jumping the gun

Trump has surely accomplished some remarkable things in his first three weeks in office, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves here, mmmkay? That way lies complacency, and as we all should know quite well by now, complacency is death.


Via Stephen, who quips: “Take the side of the IRS, Dems.” Heh. Indeed.

Update! See what I’m talking about?

Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump order restricting trans care for youths
President Donald Trump signed a sweeping executive order last month that sought to further restrict access to gender-affirming medical care for those younger than 19.

A federal judge on Thursday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order aiming to restrict transgender health care for anyone under 19.

Judge Brendan Hurson of the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland was skeptical of the government’s argument that the order is not a nationwide ban on care, but rather a “general policy directive” and that the plaintiffs — who are trans teens and young adults whose care has been affected by the order — must wait to sue. 

“In this situation, it is clear that these plaintiffs have received phone calls stopping their care, stopping their appointments, stopping their everything,” Hurson said during the hearing Thursday, adding that hospitals stopped care because of the order, which also seeks to prohibit federal funding of transition-related care for minors.  

“I don’t know how you can credibly argue that this is not demanding the cessation of funding for gender affirming care,” he said.

Joshua Block, senior staff attorney for the ACLU’s LGBTQ & HIV Project who represented the plaintiffs, said the executive order had “sown fear among transgender youth and confusion among their providers.”

“Today’s decision should restore both their access to healthcare and protections under the Constitution,” Block said in a statement. “Providers who’ve suspended healthcare for their transgender patients should be left with no doubt that they can lift those suspensions and continue to provide healthcare and act in their best medical judgment without risking their funding or worse.”

C’mon, man, surely you must remember the unalienable “transgender” “right” to “health care” specifically enshrined in the US Constitution, don’tcha? It’s right there in black and white for all to see, in Article…ummm, something-something, Section I forget right now, Paragraph mumble-mumble a-HENH!

Possibly the most entertaining part of the ongoing shitlib hissy-fit has been watching the frantic moonbats pretzel themselves logically in an attempt to deploy a Constitution they have long despised, denounced, and dismissed as antiquated and therefore irrelevant, so as to summon “emanations and penumbras” in support of phantasmagorical rights and freedoms that exist nowhere but in their diseased minds.

Be all that as it may, however, this is by no means the first roadblock set down before the restorative MAGA agenda by a power-drunk, overreaching “hack in black” Leftist judge, nor will it be the last. As such, although the President and his intrepid crew (SEND IN BIG BALLS!!!) are relentlessly advancing us along the road to final victory, apart from the 24 election itself we haven’t actually won a damned thing as of yet. It’s never been more crucial that we all take to heart Bedford Forrest’s sage advice to LT Morton: Get ‘em skeered, and keep the skeer on ‘em.

Updated update! Picked this one up over at WRSA a few days ago but haven’t gotten around to using it yet. In light of all of the above, there probably won’t ever be a more perfect time or place than right here, right now.

Not to be overly pessimistic or a Debbie Downer or an Eeyore or anything, but the sentiment definitely bears remembering.

MOAR fun with Big Balls

Posted on      by     

As the CNN Libtards continue to lapse into conniption fits, Elon continues to have WAAAAYYY too much fun with this.


If nobody’s thought yet to whip up a “Big Balls signal” a la the one Gotham City uses to call for Batman and Robin, I think it’s high time somebody got cracking on it.

"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.

—Frederick Douglass

"Give me the media and I will make of any nation a herd of swine."
