The 2020 “(s)election”: most fraudulent in world history?

Actually, it was so damned fraudulent there isn’t even a word in the English language—corrupt, crooked, fake, phony, bogus, bent, rigged, &c—strong enough to adequately describe how ridiculously fraudulent it was.

Providence has a nice sense of irony. Had Trump been president from 2021 to 2024, he could not have accomplished a scintilla of what he has already managed just a year into his second term. The four years he spent as a victim of the Biden administration’s round-the-clock deployment of lawfare – the preposterous indictments, the naked efforts to bankrupt and incarcerate him – all were “teachable moments” he would have missed had he not been made the focus of unhinged Democratic ire. I suspect that, when the dust settles, it will be shown that Trump did, in fact, win the 2020 election. But it is a good thing for the country that he had to wait four years before he took office.

To those who are impatient with this renewed attention to the 2020 election, I advert to the ending of my column here from November 5, 2025. Quoting the commentator Shipwreckedcrew, who posts on X and Substack under that username, I agreed that “the 47th President of the United States, now that he has the tools, has an obligation to examine the 2020 election with the Department of Justice if he concludes that the 46th President failed to do so out of the 46th President’s self-interest to not have his victory called into question.”

Trump, I noted, has so concluded. We are rapidly approaching the denouement of this drama.

Readers may also recall the scene from Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises in which one character asks another how he went bankrupt. “Two ways,” was the answer. “Gradually, then suddenly.” I suspect that something similar is happening here.

A few days ago, the news from Fulton County was everywhere, but there was a certain nervousness or hesitation in the air. Hadn’t we already been here, done that? But then the floodgates started to open.

Why have Georgia election officials filed a court motion to take back the ballots seized by the FBI? No one wants to be called a “conspiracy theorist” or “election denier.” No one wants to be sued for libel, as was Rudy Giuliani. He raised questions about the election results in Georgia. He named names. That cost him $140-something million. I wonder whether that judgment will be revisited now?

Commenting on the tsunami of news crashing out from Georgia, the great Cleta Mitchell, who advised President Trump when he contested the Georgia election results, noted that on the morning of election day, November 4, 2020, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Trump led by 103K votes with only 94K ballots left. “Four days later,” Mitchell noted:

[T]here were 300K more ballots, including 148K absentee ballots from Fulton County. That’s 25,535 more ballots than voters, more than double Biden’s margin. Over 133K ballot images were deleted. Zero of 148 Fulton County tabulators had the required tapes. Nearly 7K fictitious ballots remain certified, and no one investigated.

Then there is the news about Georgia Governor Brian Kemp. Grand jury testimony that was just unsealed revealed that Kemp told the chief of Georgia Bureau of Investigation not to investigation allegations of fraud in the 2020 election, Saying he was a “team player,” the official dropped the case.

The mask is being ripped off as I write. A Gestalt shift in The Narrative is underway. Wikipedia says that Cleta Mitchell “aided Donald Trump in his efforts to overturn the election results and pressure election officials to ‘find’ sufficient votes for him to win.” How long will it be before the site is forced to note instead that she aided the president in his efforts to get to the truth in Fulton County? What happened in Georgia is just one falling domino in the giant reversal that is taking place. A lot of reputedly “impossible” things are in the process of being revealed.

Yep, the formerly ubiquitous “Trump’s baseless charges” bleat is looking more and more like the absurd lie it always was, as time marches ever on. Unfortunately, the truth outing at last will be the only positive result; you can be absolutely certain that not one thing else will change a single iota, that after many encore performances, The Enemy (both Left and “Right”) will at last outdo even their 2020 “(s)election” dumbshow for sheer balls-out chutzpah.

The TRUTH, at last

Lakeside Joe lays it on us straight up, no chaser.

These statements are drafted from today’s National Review, and boy do they make sense. In the article the writer states very clearly that using the term ‘demonstrator’ to describe people like Pretti and Goode is a misuse of the term. ” That’s not what {either of them} was.

They report that both were killed while “protesting.” This is the most common description of what they were doing in Minneapolis last week. They both got in confrontations with federal immigration agents that ended in both of their shootings.” If Pretti – and Goode – were merely protesters, we need to change the definition.

A protester, as typically understood, is someone who is making a point, often as part of a gathering of other like-minded people and, usually but not always, in opposition to something. A protester might hold a sign outside a coal-fired power plant calling for it to shut down. A prtoestor might go to Union Square Park in New York City to hear speeches from bullhorns whenever something happens that outrages the left. They might march against the Iraq War, or the Vietnam War – or in favor of Hamas.

What we are seeing in Minneapolis, though, is often quite different. Run-of-the-mill protesters don’t seek out federal agents and harass and obstruct them. They don’t follow and block their vehicles or establish a robust communications network to deploy resources creating maximum disruption of their operations.
Put simply, they don’t obstruct law enforcement officers, and in so doing, literally put their lives on the line. Neither of the two killed abstained – they interfered. And, as tragic as it is, they paid with their lives. There are many lessons to be learned from both incidents, if only people are willing to learn…

I’ll just go ahead and say it right out loud, in front of God and everybody: these fucking oxygen thieves are indeed NOT innocent, non-violent “protesters” seeking to exercise their First Amendment right to “petition the government for redress of grievances,” as specified in our Constitution.

In reality, they are Communist revolutionaries whose ultimate gol is to overthrow the current government and replace it with a Marxist dictatorship which arrogates all power, authority, and spoils to itself…ie, THEM.

These faux “protesters” are well-organized, trained to a nicety in insurgency tactics, and drilled in all aspects of revolutionary strategic doctrine—from recruitment, to military-style organization and movement of company-strength and up formations in the presence of an enemy force, to psy-ops, deception, and misdirection, to actual physical combat with their avowed enemies.

That being the case, and it is, I certainly do NOT consider the battlefield deaths of two enemy soldiers as anything remotely like “tragic.” To me, it smells more like…victory. The real tragedy here is that more of the slimy cock-a-roaches haven’t been exterminated. I’m glad that Alex Pretti and Renee Good at least have been put down like rabid curs; hopefully, there will be more to come, until their fellow Red Army squad-mates have been sent to join them in Hell, with the survivors forced to admit defeat and retire from the field, demoralized and disgraced by the thwarting of their nefarious ambitions..

Once again, I refer you all to the blunt, hard-won wisdom of Curtis LeMay.

LeMay-2 (1).

Yes, it’s a damnable shame that we’ve allowed the Left to bring us to this sorry pass. No sane, decent, right-thinking person wanted this, but we are now engaged in a second Civil War, this one much more dangerous and truly existential than the first one was. Affter all, the Southern Confederacy had no desire to overthrow or otherwise destroy the US government, and Southern political and military leaders said so right from the start.

This time, Goosesetppin’ Leftists are openly proclaiming their ultimate goals, including but by no means limited to:

  • Overthrow the US government
  • Establish a Communist dictatorship in its place, along the lines of the USSR, Red China, or East Germany
  • Impose their will on all dissenters: the “transgender” lunacy; the fnal, open rejection of the US Constitution; confiscation of all citizen-owned fireams; their presumed “right” to invade churches, disrupt worship services, vandalize and wreck everything within reach; and intimidate Christians everywhere into docile compliance with the diktats of the angry mob 
  • Reinforce and strengthen the government schools in their primary mission: not education, but indoctrination
  • Hunt down and either imprison or summarily execute every member of the current Trump administration, along with everyone who ever attended a Trump really, wore a MAGA hat or shirt, and rejects the Hard Left plan for suppression and elimination of all opposition
  • Erase the national borders. freely admit and warmly welcome every serial rapist, child molester, indolent thief, and/or welfare leech who wishes to come here

If you find the above program objectionable, even intolerable, congratulations: you are now a priority target on the Left’s “Enemies of the State” list. and will be properly dealt with as soon as possible. Make those plans now, load those magazines, and gird those loins. This ain’t just about Minnesota, or NYC, or Portland, or Ca;ifornia alone. Nope, this one is for all the marbles, kiddies.

Some of you will doubtless scoff at my warning of imminent disaster, and bleat that “it could never happen here” with the smug self-assurance of a deluded fool. When the People’s Army comes to arrest snd haut him off to gaol for anti-iimmigrant Hate Tweets and/or seditious Fakebook posts,, he’ll go quietly just as his British counterparts have done. After spending a few godawful months in lockdown, perhaps his attitude will change somewhat.

Update! Just occurred to me that this is a perfect time to refresh our memories regarding  Lenin’s “vanguard” concept. Because this is in fact what these misnomered “protesters” actually are, whether they choose to acknowledge that or not.

Vanguardism, a core concept of Leninism, is the idea that a revolutionary vanguard party, composed of the most conscious and disciplined workers, must lead the proletariat in overthrowing capitalism and establishing socialism, ultimately progressing to communism.

The vanguard works to engage the working class in revolutionary politics and to strengthen proletarian political power against the bourgeoisie.

Vladimir Lenin popularised political vanguardism as conceptualised by Karl Kautsky, detailing his thoughts in one of his earlier works, What is to be done?.[1] Lenin argued that Marxism’s complexity and the hostility of the establishment required that a close-knit group of individuals pulled from the working class to become a vanguard of the greater whole to lead and safeguard the revolutionary ideology within the particular circumstances presented by the reactionary régime. While Lenin wished for a revolutionary organisation akin to the contemporary Social Democratic Party of Germany, which was open to the people and more democratic in organisation, the Russian autocracy prevented this.

In its first phase, the vanguard party would exist for two reasons. Firstly, it would protect Marxism from outside corruption from other ideas, as well as advance its plans. Secondly, it would educate the proletariat in Marxism in order to cleanse them of their “false individual consciousness” and instill the revolutionary “class consciousness” in them.

Our task is not to champion the degrading of the revolutionary to the level of an amateur, but to raise the amateurs to the level of revolutionaries.

If the party is successful in their goal, on the eve of revolution, a critical mass of the working class population would be prepared to usher forth the transformation of society. Furthermore, a great number of them, namely their most dedicated members, would belong to the party cadres as professional revolutionaries, and would be elected to leadership positions by the mass party membership. Thus the organisation would quickly include the entire working class.

Of course, Lenin falls into the same trap that Marx himself did: he firmly believed that the longed-for revolution would be the result of an overwhelming majority of lower-class, semi-literate, mostly-apolitical peasants rising up and overthrowing their bourgeois masters, deceiving themselves that the Glorious Revolution would be an inevitable natural progression rather than a sudden chaotic, bloody rejection of their current oppressive elites.

Problem being, history has never worked that way, not once. Marx was as piss-poor a prognosticator as he was a student of history. His overly-hopeful misreading of history has doomed his pet project of Communism to ignoble failure, economic disaster, and rigid, cruel despotism every time it’s been tried.

As so many mad Leftist ideologues have learned to their chagrin, one of the few things Communism produces in abundance is excuses for its poor performance, its inevitable collapse and finally, its rejection by the very people who originally constituted Lenin’s “vanguard,” now reduced to a disorganized rabble obsessively seeking vengeance against the hated Tsar Nicholas, scion of the Romanov dynasty which had ruled Russia for more than three hundred years. However, compared to the grotesque, inhuman depredations of Lenin, Stalin, and their successors, Russians saw fitt to do some serious re-thinking concerning poor oldt Nicholas II.

Vilified by Soviet historians as a symbol of repression and incompetence, Nicholas has been reassessed more sympathetically in post-Soviet Russia. He and his family were canonised as passion bearers by the Russian Orthodox Church in 2000, following the discovery and reburial of their remains in 1998.

Well, whaddayaknow about that. Tsar Nicholas II was admittedly something of a hapless, ineffectual boob, especially when it came to waging war or restoring a faltering, weak economy back to health and vigor. Even so, the Last of the Romanov tsars started to look pretty darn good next to General Secretary Stalin, Lavrenty Beria, and the grim\ parade of megalomanical ogres that came after.

Over the years, I’ve read much speculation suggesting that the Russian people have this funny way of seeing to it that they will ne ruled by one cold, corrupt, heartless tyrant after another—a mystifying  but nonetheless reiiable quirk for which I have yet to see any explanation proffered, or even attempted, by anyone.

The Russian people themselves blandly accept their lot as simply the judgment of Lady Fate, who is at least thoughful enough to dump such a heavy burden of dissatisfaction, deprivation, and futility on a people long since accustomed to it—a people with a great deal of pride in the inner strength and seemingly innate immunity to despair, self-pity,, or regret. This strength, of mind, spirit, and biody enables them to shoulder that weight without bitterness, anger,, or defeatism. Each new “leader” crowing like a banty rooster about this monh’s sure-to-be-succesful-THIS-time Five Year Plan for Agriculture and Industrial Production is no more than Fate playing her usual games again, and the Russian people gave up on asking questions about the vagaries of that fickle Lady ages ago.

Vodka, and plenty of it, is the only known palliative, restorative agent, and refuge from the mind-rotting daily grind of blocks-long queues for food, toilet tissue, shoes, some seriouslu shitty coffee. heavy winter jackets, and sundry other of life’s necessities, all of which are shoddily constructed of poor materials by disgruntled workers whose sole concern is to meet the day’s posted productiom quota and get the hell out of here and back to his tiny three-room apartment in the heart of a VERY bad neighborhood—one in which no sensible woman of any age or appearance dares go outside after dark unaccompanied.

Back home in his cramped government-assigned rat hole, sitting at the small kitchen table pouring himself a third stiff jolt from a just-opened bottle of freezer-chilled Stolichnaya Elit, he reviews the situation as he feels the vodka starting to kick in: the three kids—the eldest a girl of 12, the youngest a feisty, inquisitive 6 year old boy—share a single bed in the smallest bedroom, Mom and Dad have a double  bed in what serves as a living room next to the barely-functioning old CRT television; Grandma Grigoriev has her own bed amd bedroom, thanks to Grandpa Yuri having passed away almost a year ago now; Uncle Matvey stretches out on the tatty, battered old sofa in the TV room with a blanket and the extra pillow from the closet shelf, entertaining Mom and Dad with a seriously remarkable display of snoring, sleep-farting, bestial groans, sighs, and incoherent muttering, closing out the festivities with a round of sound-asleep ass-crack spelunking, before waking wiith a start and asking what the HELLwas that noise just now, a bomb go off next door or something?

After Mom and Dad have convinced Matvey (an Afghanistan vet whose hideous experiences living among savages with little or regard for human life retell themselves in his baroque nightmares) that there hadn’ been any noise anyplace but in his dreams, he gets up, slips his feet into. a battle-scarred pair of ancient slippers, wraps his worn-out old bathrobe around himself and cinches up the waist belt, then plods into kitchen area to get a pot of that nasty coffee going before shuffling off to the bathroom to enjoy the morning whiz.

Yep, it’s another beautiful morning in the working-class Moscow slums, with early-rising Muscovites getting into their pesonal wakey-wakey rituals to ready themselves for another day of poorly-compensated, unappreciated, pointless paper-shuffling. Meanwhiile, the muggers, crackheads, second-story men, rapists, carjackers, whores, and housebreakers spend their entire day sleeping off last night’s action, not stirring again till sundown.

Disappointment

I dunno, man, it’s always great to see a passel of Lefty screechweasels getting the snot pounded out of ‘em, but I was expecting we’d at least see some teeth, hair, and blood left on that icy sidewalk, if not bone fragments, eyeballs, ears, and/or severed limbs. Do better next time, fellas.


Pure opposition

For its own sake, and nothing whatsoever else.

vittorio
@IterIntellectus

most political issues nowadays can be explained by understanding that american leftists dont have positions, they have oppositions.

their entire belief system is defined by negation of whatever the right supports.
this is why portland chants “free maduro” while actual venezuelans celebrate in the streets.
they’re not pro-venezuelan or pro democracies, or pro tyrant, or pro maduro, they’re simply anti-american-right.

they’ve outsourced their worldview to institutional narratives for so long that genuine self-reflection would require questioning everything.
for them it’s much easier to just oppose. the beliefs arent coherent because they were never meant to be coherent. they only need to signal tribal membership, and leftist membership is gained by opposing the right.

trump does X?
the left screams and cries because they wanted Y

trump does Y?
the left screams and cries and riots because even if they said they wanted Y, what they meant is that X was the way to go

trump cures cancer?
they’ll argue that the cancer cells are alive have a right of free determination

trump saves lives?
they’ll protest because somehow those lives didn’t matter and should have been ended

no coherent word model. no logic. pure opposition

at some point you just have to stop engaging with it as if it’s a real political position. it’s not. it’s aesthetic opposition wearing the costume of ideology

And the followup:

the tell is they always speak FOR populations who overwhelmingly disagree with them.
“free palestine” from people palestinians would hate.
“free maduro” while venezuelans celebrate.
the pattern reveals the game
it was never about the people, it was about the posture

Yet another reason, as if any more were needed, why the D卐M☭CRAT criminal organization masquerading as a political party needs to be forcibly disbanded, legally proscribed, and destroyed utterly. At the very least, they should be ignored completely, treated as if they are invisible, and if/when they take their “protest”-theater productions out into rush-hour traffic, they should be run over and left bleeding in the street until the garbage truck arrives to shovel up the remains and haul them off to the landfill.

As has been demonstrated again and again and again, Leftists have nothing constructive to say, nothing useful to offer, and nothing needful to contribute. They are parasites; as such, our society has no obligation to tolerate them any longer.

Further thoughts update! These worthless skinbags firmly believe several things which are NOT in evidence:

  1. That they are the smartest people in the room, no matter who else is in there with them
  2. That they are paragons of moral virtue
  3. That they are courageous, caring “warriors” for fairness, decency, and true justice
  4. That we lesser breeds should admire, respect, and honor them for their innumerable virtues, acknowledge their clear, God-like superiority to all other mortals, and do our best to emulate their sterling example

Send in the clowns

Don’t bother, they’re here.

New York magazine writer stumps Zohran Mamdani, top aides with ‘cost of living’ question
A magazine reporter stumped Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and his closest advisers with a question about lowering the cost of living in the Big Apple.

Mamdani and his crew didn’t have an answer when a New York Magazine writer asked for a comparable city as the democratic socialist waxed poetic about his lofty “principle” of bringing down the cost of living in the five boroughs.

“I asked him and some of his advisers if there were cities that had pulled this off that New York could emulate, places that had managed to meaningfully lower the cost of living. None sprang to mind,” the article stated.

“Talk to policy experts, and they find the prospect laughable; the only cities where this has happened are ones where the quality of life dropped so dramatically that no one wanted to live there anymore.”

Point being…? What with the recent mass exodus of the last pitiful handful of sensible, intelligent souls from the ruins, NYC is already sprinting just as hard and fast as it can for the very bottom of that particular fly-blown dungheap. And with commie nitwit Zsa Zsa “A job? ME?!?” Mammyjammy at the wheel, you gotta like their chances. Taking the checkered flag in this particular race is nothing to get excited about, certainly. Even so, purblind City dwellers had better make the most of it and enjoy the Booby Prize while they can—this will be the last victory New Yorkers will have for a long, long time. Après MammyJammy, le déluge.

Clearly, the above-mentioned New Yorker hack didn’t get the memo: you never, but NEVER, ask a Socialist a question about economic policy. They know about as much on that subject as famous retard Tampon Timmeh! Walz does about string theory, therefore are sure to make a dog’s breakfast of the whole enterprise.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, gang, but after all the years, all the tears, and all the predictions of imminent doom which turned out to be a trifle premature, New York is truly over and done with. You only get so many spins of the cylinder before a loaded chamber comes up, so many goes at taunting the tiger before the tiger chews you to pieces and spits you out. About three weeks worth of MammyJammy (mis)rule ought to put the final nail in NYC’s coffin. Resilient as the City has proven itself to be time and again, selecting as Mayor a dull-witted, silver-spoonfed Muzzrat Richie Rich who has never worked a day in his useless life is a self-inflicted wound from which Noo Yawk Fuckin’ City will not recover.

Trump must continue to hammer the point home like a broken record: there will be NO bailout, NO federal relief programs, NO FederalGovCo knight in shining armor riding up on his snow-white charger to pull NYC’s chestnuts out of the fire in the very nick of time. New Yorkers, having voted for the assclown MammyJammy overwhelmingly—a landslide romp which, in effect, bestows one of the strongest mandates ever on an egomaniacal muttonhead who is singularly illl-equipped to wield it judiciously—now have no one but themselves to blame for what they’ll soon be getting. Let them get it then, Mencken-style (ie, good and hard), until they’re so completely downcast that the humiliation of this latest and greatest folly in a long and distinguished line of foolish, impenitent acts of municipal auto-annihilation shall be seared into their collective memory forever.

May New Yorkers rue the day they made such an suicidally-unwise choice. May the impending catastrophe scar them so indelibly they will be driven to reconsider…well, damned near everythiing, actually. May the enduring pain of this experience burn away, like a chill morning fog, their abiding arrogance; their deep-seated superiority complex; their ahistorical ignorance; and their counterfactual assumptions. May the sight of their once-majestic City burning all around them—collapsing into violence, lawlessness, and anarchy thanks to their own infantile prejudices and delusions—inspire them at long last to embrace humility, contrition, and thoughtfulness.

And if that doesn’t work out, just build a 40-foot high, razor-wire-topped, concrete wall around Manhattan, post armed guards along the perimeter, shut off the electricity, rename it Manhattan Island Federal Penitentiary. Then, should PoTUS’s chopper go down inside the Wall, send Snake Plissken in to bring the blaggard back out again.

Q&A

The “Q” I’ll put in boldface, in the excerpt; the “A” will follow.

Mamdani-Backed Socialist Trashes July 4, Says Independence Day ‘Means Nothing’
A New York State Assembly candidate who carries the official stamp of approval from Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America is facing heavy criticism after comments resurfaced in which she trashed the Fourth of July and other American holidays. How much more do the people of New York need to see to understand that the far left hates them and the country, values, and way of life they take for granted on a daily basis?

A: A gargantuan majority of NYC dwellers being dyed-in-the-wool Leftards themselves, they not only know already, they also agree a billion kajillion zillion percent with the expressed sentiments which the PJM scribe finds so abysmally shocking. NYC has been one of the principal havens for Goosesteppin’ Leftists and their demented ideology since the 60s at least, if not well before, and it isn’t remotely likely that that will be changing anytime soon, if ever. See also Shitcago, San Fransicko, El Lay, Ausgrim, Seassole, et al.

It’s an urban thang, see; you hicks from the sticks wouldn’t understand, and shouldn’t even try lest you embarrass yourselves horribly.

All this squawk-squawk here lately about Moslem rapefugees failing to adjust and acclimate themselves to the culture they’re overrunning, when practically every lackwit Progressivist baglapper infesting Western Civ is in even worse need of a healthy dose of assimilation their own foul selves.

Leadership

Despite the hair-do (good God, what is UP with that rats’ nest, anyway?!?) I LOVE this guy.

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.

Escalation

Ahh, le mot juste.


Encore, mes amis.

Pentagon Escalates Investigation into Sen. Mark Kelly for ‘Serious Allegations of Misconduct’
The Department of War (DOW) is escalating its review of Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), a retired Navy captain, to an official command investigation into his participation in a video dubbed “seditious” by President Donald Trump and War Secretary Pete Hegseth.

Hegseth called the video “despicable, reckless, and false,” calling Kelly, Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), and Reps. Chris Deluzio (D-PA), Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA), Maggie Goodlander (D-NH), and Jason Crow (D-CO) the “Seditious Six” in a social media post:

While four of the other participants in the video are former military, Hegseth explained that they are not “retired” so they “are no longer subject” to the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).

“However, Mark Kelly (retired Navy Commander) is still subject to UCMJ — and he knows that,” the secretary stated. “As was announced, the Department is reviewing his statements and actions, which were addressed directly to all troops while explicitly using his rank and service affiliation — lending the appearance of authority to his words. Kelly’s conduct brings discredit upon the armed forces and will be addressed appropriately.”

The investigation could result in further actions, including recalling Kelly to active duty status to initiate “court-martial proceedings or administrative measures,” the DOW said.

Do it. Slap the half-bright boob so hard when he stops rolling, his clothes will be out of style. Y’know, pour encourager les autres.

Fun with Bathhouse Barry ‘n’ Big Mike

No, not THAT kind of fun.


True, dat. Annnnd MOAR fun.


True also. Guess we all ought to stop laughing and cut poor ol’ Barky some slack. Not that he or Mooch-Helle can even hear all that gunfire from inside the walls of their Martha’s Vineyard or Georgetown compounds, mind.

How it is fucking DONE

Looks as if there might possibly be a little life left in the old town yet.

NYC serial spitter bloodied in street-style justice during epic beatdown: ‘Worse than jail’
Anthony Caines — the sicko busted by the NYPD for allegedly spitting in the faces of white women who passed him in Williamsburg — has apparently been on the receiving end of some street-style justice.

Video footage shared on social media showed two men beating and kicking a man who appeared to be accused spitter Caines, 45, outside of a hair salon on Sixth Street.

It was unclear when the footage was shot.

Caines, curled up on the sidewalk in a defensive fetal position, is dealt multiple blows by the two attackers, whose faces are never shown.

The two men laugh to themselves as they kick Caines and stomp on his legs.

Caines is heard wailing in pain during the beatdown.

The clip quickly cuts to an image of Caines with a large gash on his forehead, above his left eye. Blood streams down his face as the men issue a final warning.

Yes, the Post report includes a capture from that part of the clip, and it is GLORIOUS.

“Stop violating these females out here, you heard?” the man filming the footage tells him.

“We’re tired of that s–t,” the man explains. “You’re making us look bad.”

Caines appeared to confirm he understood, before saying, “I went to jail, didn’t I?”

“F–k jail — we’re worse than jail,” the man yells before delivering one last punch to his head.

You tell ‘im, boys. Yawp all you like about “vigilante justice,” but it’s a dead cert that Hell will freeze over before Mr Psycho-Spook hocks another loogie in that locality again. In fact, uness he lives there himself, I very much doubt he’ll ever so much as show his face in Williamsburgh again.

AOC demands Black Friday be renamed ‘Friday of Color’
US—Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was furious today after she learned that retailers and shopping outlets were still referring to the day after Thanksgiving as “Black Friday“.

She has demanded that they start referring to the make-shift holiday next year as “Friday of Color”.

The proposal, touted as a groundbreaking initiative for shopping equality, aims to rectify what AOC perceives as an oversight in the nomenclature of one of the busiest shopping days of the year.

In a press conference that unfolded like a Black Friday midnight madness sale, AOC passionately declared, “We need to recognize the diversity of our shopping experiences and move away from the exclusionary term ‘Black Friday.’ By renaming it ‘Friday of Color,’ we are embracing the vibrant spectrum of shopping desires that exist in our wonderfully diverse society.”

The demand came after President* Joe Biden said that they should let African Americans shop on days other than Black Friday.

It’s satire, folks. I think.

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.

The perfect response

Another “politics as usual” story I wouldn’t ordinarily give a fiddler’s fuck about, except for this one beautiful thing.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries appeared on CNBC on Friday, expecting another friendly segment where he could blame Republicans for everything under the sun without being challenged. Instead, he ran into Rebecca Quick, who did something that clearly stunned him: she asked real questions, pressed him for real answers, and refused to let him filibuster with recycled talking points. What followed was a live, televised meltdown that revealed just how much Jeffries depends on compliant hosts to keep his political theater afloat.

Quick opened with a straightforward point: If Democrats claim they want to avoid the expiration of key Obamacare subsidies, they need Republican votes. So why not start with something achievable?

“If this is something that you want to satiate, if you want to get done, you are going to need at least some Republicans to come over,” she said. “Why not start with a one-year extension or potentially even a two-year extension?”

Jeffries immediately shifted into campaign mode. He declared, “Leader Schumer offered a one-year extension in the context of trying to end the Trump Republican [sic] shutdown.” He went straight to the past, ignoring the question. Quick stopped him.

“That’s different. I’m talking about what you have now,” she said. “Let’s not go back to what’s done in the past and what has not been extended.”

Jeffries started getting irritated at this point. “You can ask me the question. I’ll provide the answer,” he snapped.

Quick didn’t flinch. “Answer the question instead of going back.”

The dodging, weaving, and dissembling continues from there, until finally Ms Quick’s patience is so thoroughly exhausted by the ongoing barrage of ever-less-persuasive weasel words that she can no longer contain her exasperation, culminating in what would have to be one of the finest moments in the history of journalisming.


Heh. If I was a MSM reporter/anchor/newsreaderperson, the network would can me after my second day on the job, citing my inability to stop pulling that same face throughout the broadcast as justification. There would almost certainly be some girlish giggling involved as well, which wouldn’t help me any.

True Hollywood stories

Al Bundy dishes.

Ed O’Neill has new bombshells about his longtime bitter feud with his “Married…With Children” co-star Amanda Bearse.

The sitcom ran for 11 seasons on Fox, from 1987 to 1997, starring O’Neill, Katey Sagal and Christina Applegate.

O’Neill, 77 starred as family patriarch Al Bundy, married to Peg (Sagal), while Bearse, 65, played Marcy, their neighbor and Peg’s friend.

During a recent appearance on the “Dinner’s On Me” podcast of his former “Modern Family” co-star Jesse Tyler Ferguson, O’Neill shared that he had some “regrets” about his relationship with Bearse.

In a 2013 interview with the Television Academy, O’Neill revealed that he and David Faustino were the only cast members who were excluded from the invite list when Bearse married her wife, businesswoman Carrie Schenken, in 2010.

When O’Neill confronted Bearse about being excluded from her wedding, according to him, “[She said]: ‘This was a very tough call, but I just feel that you would find it amusing that me and Becky would come in tuxedos in a church and walk down the aisle, and you and David would be snickering and finding it funny,’ ” he said, incorrectly recalling her wife’s name.

“I started laughing and she said, ‘See!’ And I said, ‘Well, you know why? Because it is f–king funny, and I’m not going to be the only one that doesn’t think so.’ But it was funny. She had a little white tux and, to me, it was funny. But in other words, she may not have been wrong in excluding me.”

Well hey, at least he can look back on the whole dustup realistically, rationally, and with good humor now. Which won’t ever be enough to dulcify the rage-a-holic bull dagger, her outraged “wife,” or their absolutely furious Big Gay Circle O’ Friends, no matter how many years have flown by since. Still, it’s something, right?

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”

GK Chesterton

"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."
