Eeyore makes essentially the same point I tried to get across last night…except he makes a better, more concise, and far more cohesive job of it than I did, or frankly could.

A quick note about Pete Hegseth’s speech to the US military brass the other day.

It’s a sad and terrible sign that it takes 45 minutes to explain what is obviously true, and has been true for all of human history and across all cultures. The merit principle always leads to victory and best results. Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth had to reiterate that basic idea multiple times over 45 minutes. Not because he is inarticulate, but because the US, thanks to communist subversion for close to a hundred years, has inculcated the military and all US and Western institutions with the most failure prone ideas in order to create failure. It has gone so far, that men who simply say they are women can compete against women in sports and use that claim to indulge in sexual fantasies at the expense of unwilling women in bathrooms and changing rooms. Standards have been lowered, which was the real point of DEI, such that any meaningful effort to solve a problem would be increasingly difficult, and should a Western effort come up against a foreign one such as Russia or China where the most obvious truths are still in effect, the Western effort would lose. That is of course, unless Russia and China would allow our Beta males to compete with their women in physical competition. Then we would win. But somehow I can’t…

Preach it, brother, preach it.

Might it come to pass that, years from now, the historic Hegseth Address will be regarded by everyone possessed of a thimbleful of becoming humility, honorable intentions, and a kindly nature as a real turning point in an emergent American Renaissance? To rejigger a phrase originally coined by a certain extravagantly braggadocious and baselessly conceited ex-POTUS of indeterminate sexuality: is this the moment when the Red tide began to ebb, dangerously overheated Leftist tempers began to cool, and the bloody,  battered, and bruised American soul began to heal?

SO. To continue in like vein, then: could this be the moment when the Goosesteppin’ Left began to see, understand, and accept that Real Americans will never A) yield to despair; B) take counsel of their fears and declare themselves well and truly beaten; C) stack arms; and D) formally and fully concede defeat in the long war against neverendimg Progressivist predation, half-clever, poorly thought out, and blatantly hostile Leftiard skullduggery, and the ever-escalating demands spritzed wildly in all directions from the foam-flecked maws of insatiably greedy Lefty loons?

Does our rough-hewn, distinctly American resolve that yes, we will see it through to the very end, even if said end might well be a bitter one; a steely determination which so inspires and enheartens us that we can rise to any challenge, go through, over, or around any obstacle, face down any foe—all these excellent things, in concert with a Brobdingnagian strength of character, body, spirit, and will—does this impressive array of powerful weaponry both conceptual and physical of necessity mean that Leftists must now come up with brand-new strategies, tralblazing tactics, loftier ambitions, and fresh, innovative modes of thought if they seriously hope to retain even a smidge of real influence in American politics, a choice as to how, where, and with whom they shail live, and/or a consequential say in how this nation is to be governed?

i dont know how optimistic I’m prepared to be about the possibility of bringing about real, lasting, and positive change through the political/legislative/judicial/electoral process. But I do know this: I support Pete Hegseth a thousand and two percent. He’s The Man, far as I’m concerned, and whether or not TPTB will allow him to get much of anything done in the relatively short time he has to do it, not to mention the emeti0c cacophonyl of hard-core objection, opposition, and knee-jerk rejection to/of MAJ Hegseth’s words, ideas, goals, plans, even himself personally blariingnonstop from Mordor On The Potomac. Don’t care; let the Dark Lord bring on his mighty legions of trolls, winged Nazgul, and Orcs most foul. STILL don’t care, not the leastt little bit I don’t. Me, I’m behind SecWar Hegseth all the way, no matter what.

DON’T DARE TOUCH THAT DIAL! Stay tuned to this channel for the thrilling conclusion of tonight’s amazing tale of adventure, heroism, courage, and forbidden romance!

Blowing the fuck UP

Kind of a hassle, embedding all these things is, but it simply MUST be done, it ain’t no way no how optional.

 


Last but definitely not least, we have this moving, beautiful remembrance.

Powerful is indeed the word. There just couldn’t possibly be a more fitting celebratory tribute than the traditional Maori posture-dance, a heartfelt gesture of love and respect offered by a clan of righteous warriors to honor their fallen brother.

MAN ALIVE! Anybody else think it got pretty dusty in here all of a sudden? *SNIFF*

Sorry, NO

Ace really says it all in this top-shelf rip, and says it extremely well too.

No, Gleen, it’s not the same. We are not attacking the left for having differences of political opinion. We are not attacking them for having weird beliefs.

We are attacking them for celebrating assassination and murder. We are attacking them for calling for the next “pew pew” against the President Donald Trump.

If Trump goes down — we are at war.

You are right that most words are not violence. But some words are: Specifically those calling for someone to be killed, or praising an assassin for killing someone, with hopes that additional assassins will emerge.

That is what we are condemning. I do grant that some people are making the mistake of attempting to criminalize mere strong political invective — but what we’re really incensed by is that Taylor Lorenz continues to praise Luigi Mangione for his assassination and absolutely zero people in the supposedly “Respectable” media have even so much as chastised her for it.

Indeed, CNN had her on to giggle about it.

Either the left stops openly glorifying violence and calling for Trump or other Republicans to be “pew pewed” — their puerile, cutesy way of saying “shot” — or the right is going to start publishing our own Pew Pew Lists.

This is not a difference of political opinion. We on the right will not have a “debate” about whether leftwing assassins are allowed to murder us, our friends, or our leaders.

That will be a civil war situation.

It’s not up for debate. Leftwingers arguing that it is justified to murder me, my friends, and my family, and my president, are not offering a political position. They are openly conspiring to commit murder, and we don’t debate murderers. We arrest them and, if necessary, we kill them.

The left cannot put itself above the social compact. The bas(e)line, rock-bottom social compact is just “you and I are in the same tribe, the same nation, and I agree to not murder you if you agree (to) not murder me. And we also agree not to incite our more dangerous, mentally-unstable members to kill each other, either.”

If we do not have that, we do not have a country, and we are in (a) state of war. The rules of society do not apply, only the rules of war and violence do.

And there you have it. Nothing more to add from over here.

Update! In the course of making a last quick check to make sure some embarrassing goof or fother hadn’t escaped my notice when it hit me like a brick to the face: “…WILL BE a civil war situation?” Close, but close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, as the ancient gag-line goes. It would be a better, more accurate mensuration of the current predicament to say that “This IS a civil war etc etc,” if you ask me.

Trump threatens thugs in violence-ridden Chicago with ‘Chipocalypse Now’ post
WASHINGTON — President Trump put thugs in crime-ridden Chicago on notice Saturday, promising to send in the newly-renamed Department of War in a threatening Truth Social post.

“Chicago (is) about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR,” the president wrote, referencing his Friday executive order renaming the Department of Defense to its original name.

The post was accompanied by an AI picture of Trump seated with fire and helicopters with the Chicago skyline in the background, dressed as the character Robert Duvall played in the movie “Apocalypse Now.”

In the words of SCOTS frontman, lead guitarist, lead vocalist, and principal songwriter Rick Miller: it’s too much pork for just one fork.

Gentlemen, start your engines. Close and latch all exterior doors and hatches, secure any loose gear, and prepare to roll tanks; this squadron is gonna make a Thunder Run right through the middle of Chicago so wild, wooly, and straight-up ragin’ it’s gonna make the fabled one in Baghdad look like two toddlers playing Pit-A-Pat by comparison.

Took the words right out of my mouth

It’s about damned time SOMEbody said it.

It’s Time For Israel, For Once And For All, To Put An End To This “Palestinian State” Nonsense
No other nation on the face of the Earth has allowed itself to be bullied into aiding its sworn enemies, especially during a protracted state of war against it…

The history goes all the way back to 1916, when Amin al-Hussein launched a series of wars against Jewish migrants who had bought barren and unproductive lands in the British Mandate, and turned them into productive agricultural lands, something that al-Hussein’s Wahhabist “Palestinians” were never able to do – and since 1948, despite massive aid from the UNRWA, have not been able or willing to do.

Israel has been supplying water and electricity to Gaza since 2005. If those were cut off, Gaza would be finished, because with all of those billions of UNRWA aid, they’ve never managed to build any electrical generation facilities, or water wells – or a desalinization plant. And, of course, they don’t grow their own food or have a fishing fleet, so they’re dependent on UNRWA or Israel for food. Same case for the West Bank, I think, if I’m not mistaken. All of the money went to Hamas, to either enrich its now billionaire founders who now live far outside of “Palestine”, or to buy weapons. And Hamas didn’t get in by free elections, they seized power in a coup in 2006.

“Palestine” is an utterly dependent population. If Israel were to go away “from the river to the sea”, they would end up like Zimbabwe, which is desperately seeking to bring back the English farmers they ran off of their lands, because the natives know only subsistence farming, and are utterly ignorant of how to make productive farms or to maintain agricultural machinery more complicated than a pointed stick. That point could be – and is being – driven home by Israel, because if “Palestine” were anything other than a dependent state, they wouldn’t be having problems with starvation.

It is plainly apparent that Hamas intends to wipe Israel off the map – and that has been their historical intent, first with the Jewish settlers, and then with the State of Israel, since 1920 – over 100 years. And they have periodically declared their intent to do so, the last such statement of intent 8 years ago, in 2017.

To Hamas and its supporters, there is no “two state solution” as plainly and unequivocally demonstrated above, and this is the case for their supporters in Gaza and the West Bank. For Israel to have peace and sovereignty in its own lands, there is no other solution but to drive these avowed enemies out of the lands which they presently occupy – and they have no duty to provide any assistance to, or cooperation with, these people.

Palestinian Arabs – most notably the Bedouins – have peacefully co-existed with Jewish settlers in the British Mandate from the 1890s until 1948, until they were incorporated into the State of Israel, and they have peacefully co-existed ever since. It is the Wahhabist Islamic religious extremists, such as the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and like organizations, who refuse this peaceful co-existence and insist on genocidal jihadi warfare – and to have peace, they must be driven out – just as the Muslim Brotherhood was driven out of Egypt and other Arab countries.

Egg-ZACKLY, right down the line. It’s as the now-classic meme says of shitlibs and conservatives in the US: If the Paleosimians wanted peace, there would be peace; if Israel wanted war, there would be no Paleosimians.

So much for the ***((((Joo))))*** -hatin’ Right’s “our ‘natural allies’ the Mooselimbs” stupid-ass horseshit, also. The time has at long last come for the dream to become reality: from the mountains to the sea, Israel shall be free…of murderin’ Muzzrat savages of whatever national origin—be they fake “Palestinians” or, y’know, what have you.

Have people had a bellyful of it yet?

Looks like the Spaniards may have, some of them at any rate. Heartfelt kudos to those cake-eating civilians for at last r’aring up on their hind legs, angrily screaming “ENOUGH already!!” Next comes the traditional raising of the Middle Digit Of Hate© in the general direction of Established Officialdom at every level, closely followed by aggrieved Serf Class knaves taking matters into their own (unwashed) hands.

Hopefully, it’s not already way too late for the Spanish Peasant Uprising of 2025 to be of much help in the way of significant sociopolitical change, beyond affording the local yokels a fleeting sense of pride, bravery, and honor reclaimed—both personal and national varieties in one fell swoop, as they say.

Big Trouble in Torre Pacheco
For the last few days there has been widespread unrest in the region of Murcia in southeastern Spain. The trouble began last weekend in Torre Pacheco, when a 68-year-old was attacked and wounded by what he said were Moroccan culture-enrichers. Angry groups of native Spaniards then took to the streets looking for Moroccan culprits, and from there the unrest spread to other Murcian cities. There have been multiple reports on the ructions in recent news feeds (see, for example, The Daily Mail, GBNews, Blue News, Brussels Signal, and European Conservative).

The following article from the Spanish public broadcaster RTVE, also translated by Gary Fouse, describes recent events in Torre Pacheco:

6 arrests for attacks, damages, and altercations in the unrest in Torre Pacheco (Murcia)
Six persons have been arrested — five Spaniards and one Maghrebian — for assaults, damages, and altercations in a police operation deployed in Torre Pacheco, Murcia, as Mariola Guevara, the government delegate in the community, reported tonight.

Thus, during Sunday, the forces and agencies of state security have arrested another five persons, all of Spanish nationality, in addition to the Maghrebian arrested on Saturday.

Three of those were arrested were for attacking a Moroccan minor and for causing damage to a journalist’s sound equipment; two others were arrested as they were walking around in a group on a public street wearing bicycle helmets in a suspicious manner.

Hmph.  SO, then, let’s recap:

  • Violent retribution against randomly selected Muzzrat immivaders
  • Trashing the (pricey) gear of purveyors of Europropaganda
  • Carrying out a surveillance and intel-gathering mission, as well as intimidating, confusing, and antagonizing the enemy via large groups dressing and conducting themselves “in a suspicious manner,” which sounds like all-purpose legal bafflegab whose meaning is adjustable according to the circumstances; the aspect which pisses off the Spanish Stasi most of all is how the RAYCISS!© thugs evinced not the least concern at the prospect of arrest, jail, fines, and presumably, execution by keelhauling

I dunno; sounds to me as if those Spanish ReichWingNaziDeathBeasts© have their heads screwed on straight—clearly, their hearts are in the right place, and they’ve got their priorities in order. Some regularly-scheduled range time—let’s say, a bare minimum of two (2) hours, thrice weekly—could well be indicated here, before Spanish Leftwits completely outlaw all such terrifying, deadly, and barbaric places and pursuits.

Just in case anybody had forgotten just how long, consistently, and unequivocally Trump has insisted that the Mad Mullahs must NEVER be allowed to join the ranks of the world’s so-called Nuclear Powers.

The White House is bringing receipts about President Donald Trump’s unwavering stance that Iran can not be allowed to acquire a nuclear weapon, shutting down criticism from those who claim otherwise.

“President Donald J. Trump has never wavered in his stance that Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapon — a pledge he has made repeatedly, both in office and on the campaign trail,” a lengthy thread on X shared by the Official Rapid Response account of the Trump 47 White House read. 

The thread contained numerous clips of comments Trump has made on the issue, proving that he’s not the peace-loving hippie that some had pretended he would be when he returned to the White House.

Follows, Tweet after Tweet after Tweet by way of documentary evidence for the above “numerous clips” statement.

Now, I was quite pleased by Trump’s oft-repeated campaign pledge that, as President, he intended to extricate the US from as many as practicable of the futile, open-ended brushfire wars in which we’re currently mired to well above the axles around the globe—wars in which no US national interest of any kind is to be found; wars in which many thousands of good American soldiers will be maimed and/or killed for no good reason; wars in which victory is neither defined nor necessarily even pursued as the end goal; wars whose underlying rationale is not the defense of the nation’s interior land mass, population, wealth, or national sovereignty against an aggressor-nation.

Nor is the underlying rationale the suppression of a hostile rival, nor expansion of its territory, nor securing its national borders. Important considerations all, to be sure, affording ample justification for making war in the Aulden Thymes of Yore. Not so much nowadays, though; wars of conquest, wars for gold, natural resources, or merely because our King and y’all’s King just can’t stand the sight of one another are all pretty much historical relics now. In the modern era, the bottom-line truth of what virtually every war is/was really all about is fattening the bank accounts of certain powerful, top-tier players of the World’s Great Game. Funny how things do change, innit?

Twinned with his most laudable goal of pulling us out of wasteful, costly wars of choice we never should’ve blundered our way into in the first place, Trump also vowed that he would likewise be HIGHLY resistant to jumping into any new Forever Wars as well.

On the other hand, though, it must also be noted that simply shrugging off the cold, hard reality that war, awful as we all know it to be, can sometimes be necessary, just, even beneficial isn’t very helpful either. Attempting to implement a foreign policy founded entirely on the blanket, puerile rejection of any and all war, forever and ever amen, is no more practical-minded, workable, or sustainable than Amerika v2.0’s current “Invade the world, invite the world” strategery is.

At least pacifists have a philosophy, if only a half-baked one, to fall back on for an explanation of and/or excuse for how muttonheaded and wrong they are.

Elsewhere, Ace ain’t having any of the “Trump promised no more wars” twipe historical revisionists are currently pitching hissy fits all over the Innarnuts over. A taste:

Apparently when Trump said this over and over and over again, the hyper-isolationists all heard him saying, “I promise I will pursue Barack Obama’s Iran policy and help Iran get a nuclear bomb. And also, again like Barack Obama, when Iran’s regime is fatally threatened, I will step in to save it.”

He never said these things. You made them up. You wanted him to say them, but he never, ever did.

The hyper-isolationists are threatening that Trump doing the things Trump has repeatedly promised to do would “fracture the base.” This is their threat that they’ll abandon and oppose Trump.

Yet they don’t consider that Trump doing what they demand and using our military and economic power to harm Israel to aid Iran would also fracture the base.

I didn’t vote for your fucking queerbait RoN pAuL!!!-cum-Medea-Benjamin gaywad peacenik foreign policy. Trump, as I already wrote, has always said that he thinks the Deep State’s ambition to be at war at all times in all countries is insane and that he would stop that, and that he wants to be known for ending wars rather than starting them.

But he’s also made it clear, as he did when he used missile attacks to all but wipe out ISIS and also assassinate Iran’s top terror commander, that enemy countries which do not accept his open hand will feel his closed fist.

He also has repeatedly stated that he completely supports Israel. I know the Tucker Carlson circle thinks that Israel is The Real Terrorist Enemy and now is literally calling for the US to attack Tel Aviv — Darryl Cooper, the man Tucker Carlson praised and glazed as “the most important popular historian [i.e., ‘Twitter crank’] writing today” expressly called for the US Air Force to bomb Tel Aviv.*

That’s not Trump’s policy. He promised to support Israel, and to stop Iran from getting the bomb.

That is what he said, that is what he promised, and that is what we voted for.

A-yup, that covers it pretty well, I believe. Like it or lump it, ya sniveling losers.

Of Pride and covenants

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.

What the hell took ya so long, anyway

When Jimmeh Peanut sat supinely back and allowed a bunch of Moslem weird-beard revolutionaries to overthrow the Shah and help themselves to Iran’s treasury, natural resources, and military assets and justi basically did nothing to stop or at lest disrupt it beyond barricading himself in the White House to watch America be stripped of its power, position, and international prestige on The TeeWee, he made one of the most damaging, unneccessary, preventable, and boneheaded mistakes any head of any governnent ever has, or likely ever will. When “President” Weakass Moron surrendered to an implacably aggressive, megalomaniacal, and quite frankly batshit insane leadership cabal ever known, well, it pretty much told any astute American patriot everything he would really need to know about the direction the American future was being dragged towards by its rotten to the core career politician case.

For years afterward, Israel’s own feckless ProPol class has expelled gale force levels of hot gas in massive quantities, blustering mightily about the Iran’s tterror-sponsoring leaders won’t be allowed to do this, will face terrible, awful, bad, no good consequences should they foolishly keep ton doing that, and just better damn well stop doing the other. It was all just a great big old pantload of hooey, natch; contra all the empty threats, bluster, and total bullshit issued by Israel, the FUSA, and all the other limp-wristed bunco artists the West can scrape up, Iran has been allowed to get away with doing pretty much anything it wants scot free.

Until now at any rate, thanks to Netanyahu and his big brass ones. While I’m pleased to see Israel’s vigorous response to Tehran’s despotic goobermint, I can’t say that it’s my own belief that we should jump right into the fray with both boots to directly join in ourselves. Not that we don’t owe the Mad Mullahs a serious ass-whupping for decades of verbal abuse, monetary, materiel, and secret sabotage in support of terrorist groups all over the world, I hasten to add. But this ain’t the time; Americans no longer have the strong stomachs and the will to win required to see such a campaign through to total victory; plus, our own military muscle has been sapped by Leftard libertines so badly the reason to just assume an American victory over pretty much anybody, anywhere, remains a foregone conclusion.

T’ain’t so, McGee.

So far, for Israel, it’s going well: they have destroyed the Republican Guard headquarters and killed its commander, General Salami. In other targeted assassinations, the head of the Iranian army is dead, as are more than ten nuclear scientists, and various other bigshots, including at least one potential successor to Ayatollah Khamenei, who for the moment appears to be alive. It’s the biggest military action on the soil of the Islamic Republic since the Iran/Iraq War forty years ago.

~To get the obvious out of the way, what should America do?


That’s probably correct as far as the politics of it is concerned. But the other reason for not getting America involved is, of course, that the Pentagon is totally crap at war. So, if the US is on your side, you’ll lose. See, most recently, Afghanistan and Ukraine – the former an international humiliation, and the latter having been micro-managed from Washington until January 20th with equally disastrous results, at least for the dwindling number of Ukrainians living in Ukraine. US military effectiveness is fading from living memory: for three-quarters of a century now, Washington has been utterly unable to use war to achieve any strategic national objective – despite accounting for forty per cent of the entire planet’s military expenditures. There is nothing to suggest Iran is likely to be an exception to the rule.

Nope, not really. They could be made one, possibly, but without a widespread adjustment of Western shitllib attitudes powerful enough to persuade them of their desperate need to reconsider…heck, pretty much everydamnedthing, I just don’t see any such thing happening.

“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.

Return to normalcy

Posted on      by     

Whatever “normalcy” means nowadays, if anything.

Let Freedom Ring! Trump Restores Liberties, Exposes Fake News, Makes Liberal Heads Melt: WOW Is it FUN!
I have been quite upfront about my alleged visit to the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

These days, I sleep well knowing that Joe Biden and his Marxist myrmidons are gone. I no longer lie in bed fully dressed until 7 a.m. in case the FBI kicks in my door and throws me into a cell without my Constitutional right to a speedy trial. In fact, I actually sleep well and wake up early to gleefully read what Trump said or did after I finished my Manhattan and fell asleep peacefully watching “Sons of Anarchy.” Why can I and other Constitution-loving Americans sleep peacefully? Because Trump is back, and so is the law of the land

Here is the sick part: all Trump has done is to re-establish the normalcy that We the People have come to expect. The fear of being tossed into solitary confinement in a D.C. gulag is, for now, not likely to happen to any American. Trump did that.

We peaceful conservative patriots no longer have to worry that we may be imprisoned for daring to speak freely, like that commie prag from the pinko ice cream company, Ben & Jerry’s.

That Marxist, ice cream-churning swine doggy was far more aggressive than I allegedly acted on January 6, and yet he knows he won’t spend a minute in jail having the guards beat the potato salad out of him. But he is too stupid to thank Trump for that freedom.

The only thing better than sleeping peacefully, drinking less to drown the anxiety, and once again enjoying my Constitutional rights, is watching Trump make the faces of liberals melt like those Nazis in “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”

I have spent much of my adult life in New York City, where I learned a phrase we didn’t have in Detroit, where I grew up: ball busting.

FACT-O-RAMA! Ball-busting, (also called “chopbusting”) is an East Coast phrase meaning, to make fun of someone/something.

Trump is a ball-busting ace. He knows what to say to make the liberals jump, jive, wail, and weep, and it’s wildly entertaining. 

I love waking up to see men in dresses screeching like the little girls they wish they were over a joke Trump made hours after I have fallen into a peaceful sleep.

I laugh like a marijuana-chomping hyena (where it’s legal for hyenas to eat the doobies…) when my few remaining libdolt friends send me Facebook messages screaming, “YOUR president said men can’t have babies! How do you feel NOW, Nazi!?”

I couldn’t be happier with Trump back in the White House. 

Said a mouthful there, Kev. Of all the many fine and wonderful things Mango Man© has done for America That Was this time around, the copious flow of shitlib tears just might be at the top of that ever-lengthening list. Another edifying consequence:

“We Study Fascism, and We’re Leaving the U.S.,” a Wednesday New York Times headline read.

Sure, plenty of well-known Democrats (mostly from Hollywood and the media) vowed to leave the U.S. in the event of a second Trump presidency: Sharon Stone, Cher, Barbra Streisand, Raven-Symoné, Whoopi Goldberg, Elon Musk’s gender-confused son Xavier Wilson, and even Cardi B rank among those who’ve at least hinted at that kind of radical action. But few of them have actually done anything about it.

But even the New York Times knows that nobody takes the vague premonitions of actors, entertainment media figures, and models seriously. To have three Yale professors who actually study the tragic events of the past century leave the U.S. because they think their country is going in the direction of Nazi Germany — well, that’s sensational.

The New York Times piece was a video opinion by history professors Timothy Snyder and Marci Shore who are married, and philosophy professor Jason Stanley, in which the threesome explained that they’d relocated to the University of Toronto, and they thought the U.S. was turning into a fascist state with President Donald Trump as its burgeoning supreme leader.

As I’ve said for a long time now, I could easily wish Trump really was the fascist dictator shitlibs love to weep, wail, and tear their hair out in great hanks about. If it drives idiots like those mentioned above from these shores for good, hey, that’s a plus far as I’m concerned. If this is fascism, then bring it on—all you want of it, plus some.

Forget, hell!

Unreconstructed Southron Baron Bodissey reports—with pitchers—on the ceremony commemorating the anniversary of the Appomattox tragedy/disaster.

Appomattox: Lest We Forget
This afternoon I attended a ceremony marking the 160th anniversary of the surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia (which I often sardonically refer to as “the Confederate Nakba”). It was organized by the Appomattox chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, and took place at the Confederate Cemetery in the Appomattox Court House National Historical Park. The cemetery itself is on a plot of land that isn’t part of the historical park, and is owned by the UDC rather than the federal government. As a result, at that location we unreconstructed Confederates can engage in our customary activities without being busted for hate speech or otherwise interfered with.

The occasion began with a prayer. We then pledged allegiance to all three flags: the US flag, the Virginia flag, and the Confederate battle flag. Yes, I know some of those pledges are mutually exclusive, but nobody seems to care.

Speak for yourself on that one, young feller. Anyhoo. Onwards.

Following that there were a few brief speeches, several songs, and some reading of poetry. UDC members in widow’s weeds placed a rose by each grave, and two little girls set up battle flags next to each headstone. There are nineteen soldiers buried in the cemetery, all but seven of them unknown, including a solitary Union soldier (who got the Stars and Stripes next to his headstone).

Fuckin’ bluebellied Yankee sumbitch. Anyhoo. Onwards.

Then a number of wreaths were presented and placed next to the memorial stone by representatives of the groups that donated them, mostly chapters of the UDC or camps of the Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV). Not all of the groups were local: one of the SCV camps that presented a wreath was based in Honolulu, Hawaii.

All in all, it was an excellent occasion. It was a reminder — at least for me — that the Confederate battle flag is not about slavery or tariffs or even states’ rights, but rather a symbol of resistance to tyranny, and a reminder that Virginia was invaded and devastated by an alien army.

Deo Vindice!

That penultimate paragraph pretty much says it all, far as I’m concerned.

Trump’s got yer pronouns

White House Uses Reporters’ Pronouns, Just Not the Way They Intended
There’s something deeply satisfying about watching the left’s cherished ideological markers being used against them. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is giving the mainstream media a taste of their own medicine, and it’s absolutely glorious.

In a delicious development, the Trump White House press office is flat-out refusing to respond to reporters who display their pronouns in email signatures. 

Heck, yes. I love it.

As do I. But the alluring Ms Leavitt has her reasons, and as you’d expect they’re well-thought out, logical, and eminently reasonable.

This isn’t just some arbitrary policy. It’s a brilliant statement about truth and reality in journalism.

When confronted about this practice, Leavitt delivered a devastating response: “Any reporter who chooses to put their preferred pronouns in their bio clearly does not care about biological reality or truth and therefore cannot be trusted to write an honest story.”

Fact check: True.

Indeed so. In fact, I’d go a bit further than that: “Any reporter who chooses to put their preferred pronouns in their bio” clearly is a fanatical ideological enemy of this President, his adminstration, the American people, and the United States of America itself. That being so (and it is), who gives a fat rat’s ass what such a one thinks—about anything at all? Ever?

An outcome assured ere the first shot was fired

A little AmRev 101 from our friend and fellow Carolinian Herschel Smith.

What If Britain Had Won The Revolutionary War?
This is a short video that asks a false hypothetical. There is almost no need to respond, but I’ll do it anyway just in case another stupid “historian” is tempted to raise the same question.

England had no chance of winning the American war of independence. Washington had fought Clinton’s troops to a standstill in the North. The only strategy the English saw forward was to send Cornwallis South to the port of Charleston, take S.C. (where they were told that there were loyalists), co-opt the support of the loyalists, retain the South, and then eventually encircle Washington.

It had no chance at all of working. The battle of Kings Mountain proved that. It was a battle of loyalists versus patriots (the over mountain men). The over mountain men had stupidly been told (by the British) that the British were coming for them. The men were harvesting crops at the time and couldn’t go to meet the British (or loyalist forces), so they sent their sons into battle. The women stood on the sides of the streets and sang hymns as their sons went off to battle. They travelled mostly at night, but virtually continuously. The average age of the fighters sent by the families to fight the loyalists was 14 years old.

They lost very few fighters, but the loyalist forces were dealt a staggering defeat. Thus ended Cornwallis’s plan to use the loyalists. His position in S.C. was no more secure. He couldn’t maintain logistics to far flung outposts because fighters using insurgent tactics were harassing them. A number of battles occurred, but eventually it all came to a head at the battle of Cowpens, where Cornwallis lost a third of his army.

Another third was in the infirmary, sick with heat exhaustion, diseases borne by mosquitos, and wounds inflicted by insurgent fighters. Cornwallis took the remaining healthy third of his army to transport the ailing third from the infirmary and headed into N.C., targeting Yorktown for resupply and reinforcements. His forces were harassed all through N.C. on the way to Yorktown, with fighters shooting from behind trees and then melting into the bush, never to be seen again (until the next skirmish, of course).

The French were there waiting at Yorktown to bombard them from the sea, but they may not have been. In the end it wouldn’t have changed the outcome of the war, just prolonged it.

Plenty more to this one yet, of which you simply must read the all.

In all my long years of intently studying American history, both inside the classroom and out of it, I can’t recall ever running across anything like Herschel’s unique take on these epochal, world-altering events, and can find no room to quibble with or contradict his sure-footed reasoning. I CAN attest to the complete veracity of his assessment of South Cackalacky, where I’ve lived the last 4-5 years or so, as “a foreboding place,” particularly the various reasons why that’s the case: dangerous critters from insects to snakes to mountain lions to bears to God only knows what; pestilence-rife swamps, bogs, and/or marshes pretty much everyplace you look; miserable, nigh unbearable summertime heat, and savage humidity the whole year ‘round.

Kinda makes one feel sorry for poor doomed Cornwallis, when you think on it.

—Charles Bukowski

“A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.”

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion.

—Frank Zappa

“The right of a nation to kill a tyrant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea.”
—John Adams

—Bertrand de Jouvenel

"It is terrible to contemplate how few politicians are hanged."
—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. I am left with nauseating near-conviction that I am a member of the last generation in the history of the world that is minimally truly free."

—John Adams

"The limits of tyranny are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
—Frederick Douglass

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