Thunderous Applause!

Timothy Birdnow

Trump's approval numbers spiked eight points since April, placing them at an all time high (tied with his second inaugural).

From the Blaze News:

At the end of April, a joint national survey by InsiderAdvantage and Trafalgar Group showed that among likely voters, the president held a 2-point advantage in approval versus disapproval. The 1,200-person survey gave a 46% approval rating to Trump, while 44% of respondents disapproved, and 10% were undecided. However, the numbers seemed to only go up from there.

'Americans are relieved they're no longer being treated as second class citizens by their government.'

Fast-forward to Trafalgar's end of May/early June survey, and numbers in support of the president had significantly jumped among likely voters.

A whopping 54% of respondents either approved or strongly approved of Trump's job as president, while 46% disapproved or strongly disapproved.

Moreover, slightly more Democrat voters participated in the 1,098-person survey than Republicans did.

Looking at Rasmussen's presidential approval tracker, Trump sat at 53% on June 2, just 3% shy of his inauguration week numbers. That week, Rasmussen reported Trump had hit record highs in net approval ratings, beating out numbers from his first term.

"President Trump’s approval rating rising suggests growing public support for his policy agenda," MRCTV host Justine Brooke Murray told Blaze News.

Why? Because Trump is doing what he said he would do and because it's working. It's not that complicated.

As George Patton says in the movie of the same name "Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser". Trump is a winner.

And the GOP will be carried along by the wave of success if and only if they get on board and move his agenda legislatively. Their failure to do so in Trump's first term was what led to our long national nightmare as the Democrats took control of the House of Representatives and used their power to assault the President. The GOP seems hell-bent on making the exact same mistake now. If they don't pass the Big Beautiful Bill (B cubed) they risk handing the House back to the Democrats, and all of it comes back - the investigations, the impeachments, the lawfare, the dirty tricks. It can be avoided but this is a seminal moment. B cubed must be passed.

Oh, it's not the best bill by a long shot, but at this moment in time it's an absolutely necessary bill.

They need to move other aspects of Trump's agenda as well. America loves winners and will not tolerate losers.

I really don't know how much clearer it needs to be for the GOP to finally get truly behind Trump and the MAGA movement. But too many are still stuck in the wildernbess, in the RINO wasteland. It was very very good to them in bygone days. So what if the country fails?

Epstein Attorney; Trump Not on List

Timothy Birdnow

Suck on this Musk!

Epstein attorney slams Musk's claim that Trump is 'in the Epstein files'

If there was a shred of truth to any of this the Democrats and their media allies would long ago have exposed it.

Trump is on record admitting he had a few meetings with Epstein early on, but he realized the guy was bad news and cut off all ties. You are going to find a lot of the movers and shakers who have had similar interactions with Epstein; deadheads who were uneasy with the man and got out. But their names will all be on his "list" as they were all targeted by him. But they are no more guilty than a person who calls a photographer to ask about prices for a wedding when the photographer is making forbidden pornography.

Musk was just furious and lashed out with the nastiest thing he could conceive. But it was false and he knows it. It also bespeaks a character flaw in Mr. Musk. It shows his heart isn't in the right place.

What's in a Name?

Timothy Birdnow

I just caught a local debate show with former Missouri House Speaker John Hancock. When asked about the renaming of the U.S.s. Harvey Milk Hancock spouted the idiocy that has kept the Republicans in Missouri from accomplishing much of anything "I don't think that's helpful" he said.

His reasoning is there are more important things to do and that, while he promoted the nuclear family, he didn't see any reason to change the name. "After all" he said "things are named for lots of things".

Is it any wonder why the Right keeps losing with guys like this as their champion? The naming of things is important; it decides what we value and who we honor. And it helps set the stage for our culture.

Were I his opponent in the debate I would ask him why were the names of so many forts or other military things changed in the first place under Biden? The Left has always understood that politics is downstream from culture. Guys like Hancock are blind to this and think it's just about elections. And that is why we are the eternal losers.

In ancient times it was believed that having the name of some god gave you power over them. That is why when Moses asked the burning bush for a name he was told I am Who am" - in other words, none of your business. You will have no power over me

Names are important and all major cultural shifts come with renaming things. There was a song about that once "Take me back to Constantinopl, no you can't come back to Constantinople now it's Istanbul." In fact it was caled Byzantium before Constantinole, but the Turks didn't change it back, they gave it their own name. They did that in most places they went to change the culture. Communists did that too, changing St. Petersburg to Leningrad, for instance.

If we are to restore the America that was we have to restore our traditional names and dump the progressive names given out to change our culture.

Harvey Milk was a homosexual activist and the ship was only named that because Milk had been in the Navy at one time. He had no major accomplishments as a sailor or did anything of note. It was a purely political choice to name the ship the MIlk. (How many actual heroes, people who died in service to their country, were denied this honor while a sodomite was feted?)

This name should never have been given, and yes it IS important to do this. I would add that Sun Tzu admonished generals to "seize that which the enemy holds dear" which is why things like Ft. Bragg were renamed by the Biden Administration in the first place - it was seizing what we hold dear, denigrating our heroes and replacing them with their own.

Yet so many Republicans think like Hancock, want to continue to play the game with the Democrats, a game that has long been rigged against us. He should have better sense.

Until we understand all this we will lose. The Left has long understood all of this, and they move forward in the culture even while we are winning in the political sphere, and eventually the political turns toward the culture. How many people now are in favor of gay marriage? When SCOTUS ruled it a constitutional right (largely plucked out of thin air) a solid majority of Americans were dead set against that. No more. A national referendum would probably make it law now. That is because the Left pushed for decades to desensitize Americans on the subject. Even now we see that; there are gay couples portrayed on commercials now when in times past they didn't do it to avoid any backlash. But now they show men kissing or resting their heads on other men's shoulders. And the Conservatives let them do it and do not respond.

Granted, we can't stop private companies from advertising in this fashion, but we can make it expensive for them to do so. Boycotts for instance. And we can produce our own things like that, only portraying the destructive nature of it. (Granted the networks probably wouldn't air such things.) The reality is homosexuality is horribly destructive; it causes all manner of physical health problems, and psychological ones as well. A major killer of gay people is suicide. That is often blamed on lack of societal acceptance, but this at a time when society IS accepting it. No, it's ultimately the gnawing of conscience at the individual. They KNOW it's a violation of Natural Law and it gnaws at their innards like rats.

But we aren't supposed to say that!

At any rate we c an do things to fight this stuff, and part of that is the naming of names. There is power in names. Oh, maybe not some sort of magical or spiritual power, but it is there.

I would also add Confucious say (he talks a LOT!) that to restore a nation ne first must true the language. Our language is riddled with untruth. Part of that is the renaming of things. DEI, political correctness, whatever one wishes to call it, exists solely to untrue the language.

I can't imagine how someone like Hancock could not see that. But that is the RINO Republican wing; they are not deep thinkers.

I don't cae what they name the U.S.S. Milk so long as it is named after someone deserving. A Navy Aviator, for instance, who died in a plane crash, no matter how lowly, is far more deserving than a gay rights activist. Again, it's all about what we value - heroes or radicals.

A Mind is a Terrible thing

Timothy Birdnow

Illinois Governor J.B. "No Neck" Pritzker wants to run for President. The Trust Fund kid who has held Illinois in his greasy grip thanks to his daddy's money (he's an heir to the Hilton fortune) wants to take his socialist show to D.C.

When asked if she would support the rotund Pritzker she heartily exclaimed "that would be a no-brainer!"

I heartily agree; Pritzker IS a no-brainer. He has fewer brains than a scarecrow.

There used to be a saying in commercials for the United Negro College Fund "a mind is a terrible thing to waste". Sadly the Democratic Party misunderstood and their motto is "a mind is a terrible thing". Pritzker and Duckworth are proof of  that.

Meet the Mess

Timothy Birdnow

I caught Senator James Lankford on Meet the Press this morning. Lankford was defending the President's decision to call out the National Guard in California to stop the riots in L.S., riots which Governor Gavin Nuisance, er, Newsome denies are even happening, calling them "peaceful protests" despite fires and cops being hit by cinder blocks and the like.

Lankford rightly pointed out that the National Guard would primarily be in support roles.

Of course he could have also pointed out that, given the horrible response of the Golden State to the wild fires in the Pallisades, one cannot trust California and her greasy kid stuff Governor to handle any such crisis.

Welker used this to pivot to the border, and then to the human trafficker Kill More, er, Kilmar Garcia, whom Trump sent to El Salvador and is only now bringing back to the U.S. Welker was indignant: "the court ordered his return in April and it's only now he's coming back" illustrating how she and all the Democrats care more for criminal aliens than Americans. Lankford rightly pointed out that Trump followed the law, going through the whole process step by step - the way it was designed to work. But Welker kept INSISTING that Garcia was denied due process. At least three times Lankford pointed out he was given due process, in much the same way as any illegal alien caught at the border would have been. He pointed out that aliens have different, abrogated due process rights and that was ratified by any number of court decisions over the years. Welker simply ignoreed what he said and kept badgering him to try to get him to agree Trump is denying due process. It's clear she was given talking points to stick with for this interview. Sher was suprised he wasn't playing along.

She also badgered Lankford about his having been a deficit hawk and now supporting the Big Beautiful Bill. He pointed out the CBO numbers assumed a major tax increase - which is what not passing B cubed would be - will not slow economic growth, which of course it will. It would, he argued, cost more to not put the bill in place. He's right.

Meanwhile Senator Corey Booker came on to spin a web of outrageous lies about Trump's calling in the National Guard to Los Angeles.

Anong those lies - a reiteration of the lie that Trump did nothing to stop the J6 riots, and that rioters BEAT police officers, killing several. Both claims have been solidly debunked; the only person who died of violence on J6 was a protester. And Trump did things - he asked protesters to go home, and he wanted to call out the National Guard by Nancy Pelosi - who is in charge of the Capitol Police - nixed that.

But it was Trump's fault according to Booker.

Booker also lied when talking about the B cubed bill; he said 93 MILLION Americans will see massive health insurance rate increases, and 16 million will lose it entirely, for instance. Welker never called him out on this - or on anything.

Booker is calling this a "Paul Revere moment".

Strange; Mr. Booker has never pushed any sort of serious budget cuts and yet now he's a deficit hawk.

Oh, and Booker is also claiming the riots in L.A. - mostly by illegal aliens - are entirely peaceful and that Trump is essentially invading the Golden State.

Spartacus lieth.

And Kristin Welker facilitated him, and refused to fact check him in the same manner she "fact chec ked" Senator Lankford.

Also, during the panel, there was universal praise for Elon Musk. One of the panelists even said Musk brought in "very talented and bright people". Of course just a week ago the whole narrative would have been the exact opposite. Now they love Musk since he's turned on Trump.

Maybe this is a ruse? Maybe it's a way to get the Left to switch sides, then when Musk comes back to Trump they have egg on their faces? I don't know but I hope so.

At any rate Meet the Press is nothing but a show, no more of a news program than Gray's Anatomy is a text about medicine. it's just an act. A con.

Rubbing Raw the Sores of Discontent

Timothy Birdnow

Meet the government agency that ginned up the BLM riots and led to the "mostly peaceful protests" that burned down whole cities.

Title 10 of to the Civil Rights Act called for the creation ofthe Community Relations Service, which goes around the country tamping down information about black on white violence and it is they who created the "mostly peaceful protests" shibboleth.

They also are exempt from FOIA requests, meaning they can do as they please without scrutiny. They pressure news organizations, forcing them to hire minority activists over qualified individuals. And they train leftist activists, working with old Sixties radicals and Saul Alinsky protege's.

FTA:

"The people who ran the organization admitted that the purpose of the organization was explicitly to prevent white America from having any backlash against any minority groups that might do violence against them,” he explains, adding that CRS controls everything "so that there isn't an awareness of the severity of many of these crimes.

This makes sense. There is a lone wolf who has been chronicling this for years - a guy named Colin Flaherty has made a whole career chronicling such things (see Don't Make the Black Kids Angry or White Girls Bleed a Lot to name just a few.) It's clear the authorities always downplay and suppress any information about black on white crime, even when it is beyond horror. I remember one case where a white girl had a flammable liquid poured up her nose then was lit on fire. She wandered out into the street with flames coming out of her nose and mouth and eyes, buck naked (as she had been raped) and we never heard a peep about it. Why? Because the monsters who did this were black and she was white. SOMEBODY suppressed this story. Who? Now we know it was the U.S. government.

Supressing such information only allows the bad people to think they can get away with it. If it were not for this we wouldn't have a culture of violence in the black community like we do now. It exists because it's nurtured by these leftists in government. If crimes were simply reorted there would be great pressure to reform the black community and to resist crime. Crime hurts black people even more than it does white. Publicizing these kinds of things is the first step into fixing the problem. Butt the radical left doesn't want to fix the problem; it's been a tool of societal change.

As Saul Alinsky said radicals must "rub raw the sores of discontent". So ruining the black family, ruining society at large, is to the good because it will "rub raw the sores of discontent" making people more amenable to radical societal change.

Why hasn't Trump killed this abomination yet? I know he can't by statute but he can certainly find ways to neuter it.

Kiss and Make Up Already!

Timothy Birdnow

My brother called me last night, all lathered up about the Trump/Musk business. What had him so disturbed was the suggestion that Trump may have had closer ties to Jeffrey Epstein than has been disclosed. Brian rightly surmised that if this is true and if it comes out it will end Trump's presidency - and by extension the whole MAGA mmovement and our last hopes of saving America.

But if this were true the Left would have pulled THAT trigger already, which leads me to doubt it. I have no doubt Trump had some dealings with Epstein - everyone in Washington did, and a lot of people who did had no idea of what Epstein was doing. Trump is on record admitting as much, and he says he cut the guy off as soon as he realized there was something bad going on with him.

IF this is strategic then it could well be a trap for Trump's enemies. Get them all chasing after a will-o-the-wisp and wasting their time and effort on a nothingburger. Trump has done such things before.

If.

Trump has long controlled the narrative in such a manner and every time he was attacked he grew stronger.

But it seems a bit much to me. After all Musk shot off something like 40 tweets attacking the man he helped put in office.

Which brings us to another matter - Musk's culpability. If Musk truly believes that Trump was deep in it with Epstein then he shouold have quit some time ago and gone public with the reasons for his suspicion. He didn't. He did quit now, but never said this was the reason, and he has provided no evidence that convinced him. It's odd given the extraordinary access he and his team were given. Did they find something? If so why hasn't HE presented it?

You can't fly off the handle over one unrelated issue and then drop something like this as an aside; it suggests what you are saying has no credibility.

Reader Bill thinks it's just purely a case of two titanic egos clashing, people who aren't used to being told they are wrong. He may be right. I've read that this is common with Aspbergers Syndrome people, I might add. And Trump has always been like that; he's had feuds his whole career. Anyone remember the brouhaha he had with Rosie O'Donnell before he went into politics? I had an old computer running windows 98 and had a little game I downloaded onto it where Rosie O'Donnell would attack Donald Trump with her long, forked tongue and Trump would fight back by whipping her with his orange hair. These kinds of feuds are your basic Trump.

I had thought he had grown out of this. He employed this tactic much as pro-wrestlers do, to gin up interest. That's fine when you are in the WWE but not so good when you are President of the United States. A little dignity would be nice.

But we always knew who we were getting.

At any rate I hope the bromance between Trump and Musk is healed. Musk has the power to do irrevocable harm to our cause if he so chooses. If he lets his ego get in the way of the good of the country (and world) and goes back to the Democrats we are in a world of trouble. Musk liberating Twitter and spending so much time and money to get Trump elected completely changed the political landscape and for the better. If we lose him now we are going to wind up back where we were, with big tech backing the Democrats and freedom of speech curtailed.

So kiss and make up you two!

Addendum:

Here is a timeline of the feud posted by The Blaze which touches on most of the points I just made. I read it after writing my post and was pleased to see the good people at The Blaze are in agreement.

The Brink of the Apocalypse

Timothy Birdnow

General, you don't have a war plan! All you have is a kind of horrible spasm!

Robert McNamara ·

The Doomsday Clock is at one minute to midnight.

Roll Out The Nukes: The Risk Level Just Went "Way Up” And Trump Warns "We’ll Be Very, Very Tough” If Russia Doesn’t End The War

We have been fortunate indeed that Putin didn't launch the birds already.

The Russians changed their nuclear launch protocols to say "any attack on infrastructure needed for defense" can be met with a nuclear response, meaning the Ukrainian drone attack would have authorized a launch.

Putin WILL do this if he feels he has no other choice. He's not going to be caught in a spider hole like Saddam Hussein.

Americans are completely clueless about all this. Most think that we are the only ones to have nuclear weapons, and they think our arsenal is top of the line too. None of that is true.

The Russians have a much larger and more modern arsenal than do we. The Chinese arsenal is smaller but not insignificant (at about 200 warheads). If the Russians launch on us the Chinese probably will as well. Better to fry us now that leave us wounded and enraged.

A nuclear war will NOT cause a nuclear winter as the author of this article claims; studies done back in the nineties proved that. But it might cause a "nuclear autumn" and certainly we won't get a crop in that season.

The contamination from fallout will dissipate in about two weeks, but the soil will still be contaminated for a number of years. So will wells. There will be some very difficult problems.

The cities will be gone, by and large. That would be most of the population would be dead (including myself - I live in the city of St. Louis itself, not even in the 'burbs). The only consolation we can take (limited as it is) is that the Democrats will be forever out of power as most of their voters would be dead. Their power base is entirely in the big cities.

One nuclear war can ruin your whole day, even if it gets rid of a few creeps.

At any rate I largely agree and we've been playing with fire since this war began. Without a clear victory (and it wasn't going to happen with Western money and weapons pouring into Ukraine) or a negotiated settlement (which the Biden Administration opposed when it was possible) this thing was destined to grind on year after bloody year, and it was assured to continue to escalate. Now we are on the brink of nuclear war.

And STILL so many people in both parties are beating their chests and calling for more. It's insane.

"Mr. President, I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed. But I do say no more than ten to twenty million killed, tops.”

Musk V. Trump

Timothy Birdnow

Not sure what's happening in this Musk/Trump feud but it seems to me Mr. Musk has somehow lost his South African blood diamond marbles. He is just fierce in going after the President, the man whom he helped elect.

I can't help but think this is some sort of strategic move. Not sure of the purpose of it.

On the other hand I've never trusted Elon Musk, and I'm sure some of my readers (all four of you) may remember my reluctance to invest trust in the man.

BTW Musk has Aspbergers, a cognitive disorder with a number of symptoms including obsessive behavior and trust issues.

I don't know but Musk is way too angry for this to be about spending. He isn't stupid; he knows this is just a start and that Congress can do recissions to eliminate much of this waste. No, this is personal.

And this right after Trump gave Musk a symbolic "key to the White House" just a week or so ago.

Is it because, as Musk claims, Trump's name is on the Epstein files? Well duh! We all knew Trump had met with Epstein a few times; he's admitted as much. He is on record saying that as soon as he realized there was something amiss with Epstein he cut him off. So no doubt he's mentioned in the files. But what do those files say? Musk can't know.

I would like to understand what is happening. I don't see any of this as being helpful.

Maybe Musk wants to get back his old customer base for Tesla? Throwing Trump under the bus would do that.

Democrats Have Lost Men

Timothy Birdnow

A Democratic strategist admits the Donkey Party has lost men and won't be getting them back any time soon.

As he points out the Democrats are clueless about their once traditional power base and are studying them as if they were some exotic species. As he points out the simple solution is to go and hang out with them. But the elitist snobs in the part would never so sully themselves as to do THAT.

In point of fact the Democrats were never the party of the working class, much less middle class. They were good at talking the talk, and they doled out tax money paid by those workers back to them to buy their votes. Oh, and they owned the labor unions, and so many blue collar workers took what the unions said as gospel.

Eventually their duplicity caught up with the Democrats. Blue collar workers were destroyed by so many policies of the Demo-left. Unrestrained immigration, for one, obviously took American jobs and yet the champions of the working man kept pushing for it. Inflation particularly hurt the working class. DEI and "gender" promotions disgusted the working class, who are nothing if not normals (generally you have to be when you work for a living; there isn't time to play these little games.) They didn't want weak national security. They didn't want to become second class citizens in their own country. They didn't want to not be able to, say, start their own business if they chose because of overregulation. They did not want to have their neighborhoods overrun with thugs and criminals as the Biden Administration sought to integrate all neighborhoods, moving thugs into public housing next door to good working folks. They didn't want rampant crime.

It goes on and on. But the Democrats can no longer stop the runaway train of offenses because their coalition was never that strong and there were different groups tugging this way and that. It held together far longer than it ever should because the media helped tampe down anger and were able to gin up fear of the Republicans. But it was the Boy Who Cried Wolf and the working class has now seen that voting Republican didn't lead to the monopoly man lighting his cigars with $100 bills while they lived in tarpapre shacks. The GOP turned out to not be the ogres they always beleived them to be.

All the Democrats can do now is another round of "how do we fool 'em today?" when the trust is irrevocably broken.

I'm sure they may make some headway at some point but I suspect they've lost the male vote for good - and the working class vote. And the Middle Class vote.

This mirrors what happened in the '30's when so man y groups became vassals of the Democratic Party. Blacks had always voted Republican until Roosevelt, for instance; after all it was the GOP that freed blacks. But the GOP took those voters for granted and became obsessed with the monied class. The black people heard Roosevelt and liked what he said. He was going to give people money and when you are poor that's hard to resist. The black community flipped to the Democratic Party and stayed there to the present day. Only now they are starting to wake up to the fact the Democrats don't care about them either.

So big flips DO happen and Roosevelt flipped much of the country. The Roosevelt coalition is finally coming to an end thanks to the radicalization of his party. Roosevelt may have had socialistic tendencies but he never openly advocated for it. The current crop of Democrats have eschewed any pretense they are American. They are international socialists and want to PUNISH Americans. Americans don't like that.

So let us be careful not to alienate this block of voters. I doubt the Dems will get them back, but they will if the GOP returns to it's vomit like a dog and starts promoting the things that the Democrats promote as well.

Ethics Complaint Against Bondi

Timothy Birdnow

The Empire strikes back as a collection of leftists in Florida, including at least one state supreme court justice, file an ethics complaint against Pam Bondi.

The caolition of the whining who filed the complaint are mostly out-of-state attorneys and law professors.

Among the "ethical lapses" they claim for Bindi are that she breached ethical duties in her current role and that "serious professional misconduct that threatens the rule of law and the administration of justice”

Interesting; the article does not cite any particulars being asserted by this group. Just ad-hominem accusations.

They also acc use her of having "sought to compel Department of Justice lawyers to violate their ethical obligations under the guise of ‘zealous advocacy,’” Again, no details.

The Hill article horribly mischaracterizes Trump and Bondi. It claims Bondi is acquiscing to Trump's demands for vengeance "Democrats pressed Bondi amid her confirmation hearing over her ability to push back against Trump, who had repeatedly stated he would come for his enemies and that he has the "absolute right” to do what he wants with her department."

Trump did not ever state he is "coming for his enemies" nor did Bondi say he had an absolute right. Trump wants justice, a justice he was repeatedly denied in the endless lawfare campaign that those enemies indulged. Bondi wants justice, wants the law enforced. To Democrats that appears to be vengeance, because they are so used to flaunting the law and getting away with it. To the Left any pushback is "coming for them" and unethical and illegal. THEY are the rightful rulers of America and THEY and they alone are deserving of legal protections. Trump refused to do the "decent" thing and slink away into the night. And he is now encouraging justice be serv ed. How DARE he!

So now they are yet again using lawfare, this time against the Attorney General and at the state level where they hope to pull it off.

Previous ethics complaints against Bondi have failed in the past.

There should be similar ethics complaints filed against each and every one of these activists who have signed their names to this. This is the REAL ethical lapse, not Bondi investigating crooks and cheats and abuse of power.

Boasberg's Amazing Good Fortune

Timothy Birdnow

Missouri's excellent U.S. Senator Eric Schmidt questions the "random" assignment of judges, most particularly the assignment of Judge James Bozobugger, er, Boasburg to Trump cases.

Old clown Shoe Jim keeps getting high-profile cases assigned to him "randomly" even though he has repeatedly shown himself to be a Nevertrumper, and his daughter is a radical left wing activist. She works for an outfit called "Partners for Justice" which is exactly how it sounds, a leftist legal terrorist group. Also he's married to Elizabeth Manson, a heavy donor to the Democrats, having donated more than $11,000 to the Donkey Party. Oh, and she's a founder of an abortion NGO named Grace Reproductive Health and funded by USAID and Soros.

As Mr. Schmidt points out, it is almost statistically imporrible for Boasberg to get this many high-profile cases.

"Judge James Boasberg has somehow been assigned FOUR major Trump cases. A statistical impossibility. That isn’t ‘random.’ It’s rigged,” Schmitt posted.

[...]

Following Schmitt’s remarks, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), joined by Reps. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Chip Roy (R-TX), sent a letter to the Clerk of the Court for the District of Columbia requesting details about the case assignment procedures.

The lawmakers stated that the repeated involvement of Judge Boasberg in matters concerning President Trump "raises serious questions about the integrity of the assignment process and the appearance of impartiality.”

The court, in previous statements, has maintained that the assignment of cases is performed randomly and in accordance with standard procedures.

Bozobooger is Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. It's odd the Chief Judge KEEPS getting these cases.

Among them are a duspute over the use of Signal to discuss national security (Boasberg ruled they have to preserve all of the Signal posts), Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport criminal illegal aliens, and others.

Schmidt said:

And ALWAYS Boasberg rules against the Administration. Looks like a rigged game to me.

BTW did I mention Boasberg was appointed to the FISA court by none other than the swing vote of the Suprme Court and Chief Justice John Roberts?

Character and Butt Wiping

Timothy Birdnow

I beg to differ.

Vermont Democrat Rep: Without Illegals, Who Would Wipe Our *sses?

I don't know about the good people of Vermont, but here in Missouri we are taught as children basic personal hygiene.

Oh, and we do fine without illegal nurses. My wife has been in a facility for months now and has requires such services and guess what? Just about every one of her nurses and aids have no accent at all. Plenty of people willing to do it.

Which is interesting as the hospitals she has been in have had quite a few accented folks, meaning hospitals hire based on DEI. But the private nursing home, which undoubtedly pays less, is pretty much immigrant free. Now why do you suppose that is?

There have never been "jobs Americans just won't do" - employers just need to pay market rates and stop looking for bargain basement employees. And the government should stop encouraging illegal immigration. And they need to relax the stifling regulations that lead employers to look outside the system. And we need to get rid of DEI and the other abominations that masquerade as kindness in America. People will do any job if it's worth it for them to do.

I remember an old comedy bit from when I was a kid. It was a spoof on the old Bic ligher commercial "flick of the Bic sir" where a butler with white gloves asks "pick of the nose sir?" It was intended as humor but it was always possible to find people to be "gentleman's gentlemen" and do jobs "Americans just won't do" (or Brits either.) There was pride in any work, and while today some may think it beneath them there was a whole group of people who proudly did such jobs. An easy job does not give one a sense of pride. Doing a hard or dirty or thanksless job does because only the really dedicated do them.

We need to start teaching those values again. And especially with the young who don't work or bear any real responsibility. Time was the hard and dirty jobs went to teenagers who would learn proper work ethic. From there they would work their way up. But no more; now we think we can just bring in illegal aliens to do this work and our kids can just hang out all day playing on their i-phones.

Well, I did my share of hard and dirty and thankless jobs, starting at age 16 when I could legally work (actually before that as I cut grass and did basic labor for people in the neighborhood.) It was good for me even though I may not have liked it at the time. Built character.

And that is why our young seem so devoid of character these days; they are never challenged, never face tasks that are unpleasant but must be done. If we had had another Great Depression these kids would have been in a world of hurt.

So if Vermont wants illegals to wipe their posteriors then perhaps it's time they build some character in themselves and learned to do the job. At some point everyone has to grow up.

All Hat and no Cattle

Timothy Birdnow

This is hilarious! A white dude in a covid mask says white people deserve to be robbed for stealing land from everyone else and a black guy conversing with him calls his bluff.

White Guy - I Deserve to be Robbed - Guess what Happens Next

Like most liberals the man is all talk. When it comes to his personal stuff he has a very different view.

Radical in Charge of Ethics at IRS

Timothy Birdnow

You can't make this stuff up!

Obama-Era IRS Scandal Figure Now Heads Agency’s Ethics Division

Yes, the person who brought you the targeting of conservatives by the IRS is now running their ethics division!

FTA:

Elizabeth Kastenberg, who was directly involved in overseeing IRS scrutiny of Tea Party-affiliated organizations seeking tax-exempt status, is now tasked with enforcing professional conduct among tax practitioners, preparers, and other third parties.

Her appointment was highlighted in new research conducted by the American Accountability Foundation (AAF), a nonprofit watchdog group, and first reported by the Washington Examiner.

Kastenberg was a central figure during the 2010–2013 IRS controversy, when conservative groups seeking 501(c)(4) nonprofit status were flagged for extra scrutiny.

According to 2013 congressional testimony, Kastenberg was involved in reviewing audits of right-leaning groups and was present at senior-level discussions involving decisions tied to the targeting of those organizations.

A December 2014 House Oversight Committee report stated that Kastenberg was directed by a senior staffer under Lois Lerner—the former IRS official who ultimately resigned over the scandal—to help construct legal grounds to deny tax-exempt status to Tea Party-aligned groups.

We won big, our guy is in power, and yet we STILL get the radicals in charge in our bloated bureaucracy. Why wasn't this chick shown the door when DOJE was busy cutting the IRS budget?

The Left is like Athlete's Foot; you have a devil of a time getting rid of them.

Judge Blocks Terrorist Family Deportation

Timothy Birdnow

Did anyone doubt it for a minute?

Biden Appointed Judge Blocks Deportation of Bouler Attacker's Family

Bear in mind these are all Egyptian citizens; not one of them is an American.

Mohamed Sabry Soliman, the man who doused Jews attending a peace rally, with an accelerant (probably gasoline) and tossed a molotov cocktail at them, incinerating them because they were Jews. Soliman was here illegally, having overstayed his Visa. That means his wife and children were here illegally as well, no doubt.

So how can a Federal judge issue an injunction to prevent DHS from evicting them from the country? It's not a CRIMINAL charge but an immigration enforcement issue.

FTA:

U.S. District Judge Gordon P. Gallagher granted a request from the family of Mohamed Sabry Soliman to block their deportation, after U.S. immigration officials took them into federal custody Tuesday.

"The court finds that deportation without process could work irreparable harm and an order must issue without notice due to the urgency this situation presents," Gallagher wrote in the order.

[...]

"It is patently unlawful to punish individuals for the crimes of their relatives," attorneys for the family wrote in the lawsuit. "Such methods of collective or family punishment violates the very foundations of a democratic justice system."

Fin

This isn't punishing these people for the crimes of their father/husband, it's kicking illegal aliens out of the country.

I refer you to this:

Under expedited removal processes, certain noncitizens are deported in as little as a single day without an immigration court hearing or other appearance before an immigration judge .

This judge is stepping WAY over the line here. The U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed the almost absolute power of the Executive Branch to enforce immigration laws, and have stated in the past that courts have no jurisdiction over the President in this regard. This judge is just making his own law.

In U.S. v Texas the Supreme Court ruled that the courts could not override any immigration priorites set by the President and DHS. At the time this favored the Biden Administration and Allejandro Myorkas, who "deprioritized" deporting anyone. Now that the shoe is on the other foot we are supposed to forget Texas.

I think the Solimon family should be moved into a house next door to judge Gallagher. Then when their makeshift bombs explode he's the one who loses his home.

I thought Trump and the tariffs were going to wreck the economy.

I hope he keeps wrecking it' I'm getting rich off all this bad economic news.
