In honor of this I give you Armageddon by the rock band Prism, 1979 (the year the Ayatollah came to power.)

There was a full moon over Memphis
National Guard outside
Thousands wait for Elvis
Waitin' ever since he died for a miracle gonna happen
His eminence to restore
The sound of thunder crackin'
Signals the beginning of the war to end all wars
[Chorus]
Armageddon carry me home
Armageddon carry me home
Jerry and Linda in the White House
President sleepin' in his shoes red phones ring in the blackout
Ain't got time to lose U-boats off New England
Enemy submarines
From Boston to Miami
On a red alert, you better scramble all the F-15's
[Chorus]
Armageddon carry me home
Armageddon carry me home
Listen to the song; the funerial music is the real star.

Broken Eggs, Omelets, and Rising Wages
Timothy Birdnow
Tired of winning yet?
Blue-Collar Wages Under Trump Post Largest Increase in Almost 60 Years
This is what happens when you kick out labor that is undercutting the market and at the same time increase the number of jobs. It's basic economics.
BTW I argued years ago at American Thinker that illegal labor was destructive to economic prosperity in the same way slavery was destructive to prosperity in the antebellum south. Read my article Plantation America and it's companion More on Plantation America at American Thinker.
Real wages (adjusted for inflation) are up 1.7% this year.
Slavery destroyed the antebellum economy in the South by depressing wages for poor or working class whites, which is why the South had such a distinct aristocratic nature; nobody but the wealthy could amass any money because no small business could compete with free labor. The end result was the South was primarily agrarian and had almost no industrial base (except here in Missouri, which is why Lincoln ordered his man Nathanial Fox to "keep Missouri in the Union at all cost"). The end result was they had nothing with which to fight. Everyone remembers the scene in Gone with the Wind where Rhett Butler points out that the South had no factories, no arms plants or cannon plants, limited railroads, and all it had was "arrogance". He was right and the South believed that elan and good breeding was enough. That might be helpful but a good old fashioned gun or bomb is better!
America was becoming a huge version of the South, except instead of wanting limited government the ruling class wanted more and more control. But the economy had been hollowing out much the same as the Old South, and for many of the same reasons.
Hopefully this trend will be the long-awaited reversal of decades of decline. The "service economy" never produced what it promised.
I remember a show in the mid two thousands called Jerico. It was about a terrorist attack on the U.S. that took out 25 cities and left the small town of Jericho Kansas isolated. One of the characters was dating this dumb skateboard kid. He didn't know why everyone wanted the old country back. His girlfriend asked him "where will we get our stuff?" to which, after some thought, he replied "we'll get the internet back up and just buy it from there'. That has pretty much been the mentality of moder America for some time. Eventually you can't buy it from there, or don't want to. You have to make your own stuff at some point or you are at the mercy of those who DO make it.
Which was the plan all along. This whole "free trade" and unlimited international trade business mirrored what was done in Europe starting with the Coal and steel treaty between German and France. France wanted to bind Germany's economy intimately with their own so they dared never attack France again. Soon other countries wanted to join and the Treaty of Rome was signed crating the European Economic Community, commonly called the Common Market. This eventually morphed into the European Union we know today. The internationalists used this as a template to try to create a world government, and they sought to intimately bind all national economies together in the hopes the nation-states would wither away and the international organizations - the U.N. the World Court, etc. would become a true world government.
But such a system is gossamer in nature. In fact it was much like this at the end of the Bronze Age; the great powers of that time became too dependent on trade, and when the Sea People showed up and disrupted the trade routes the whole thing fell apart. Most of the Bronze Age nations have long since ceased to exist.
We saw the difficulties of trade during Covid, and are seeing it now with piracy and with Houthi terrorism. A major war between the superpowers would end international trade; we'd better be making our own stuff or we will collapse in any sort of dusrupt, even if it is not a major military engagement.
So there is no good reason to keep outsourcing our jobs to India or China; we need Americans and American jobs. We neither want to outsource nor insource via labor that is below market rate. Both are destructive to our way of life.
But then to many on the Left that is the whole point. Cloward and Piven made that argument. You gotta break a few eggs to make an omelet.

Lewinsky Trashes President Penis
Timothy Birdnow
Here's a blast from the past!
Monica Lewinsky Reemerges to Eviscerate Bill Clinton; Admits He Should Have Resigned
Time has no doubt brought wisdom to the woman, who was a victim of Clinton's abusive behavior as much as her own bad upbringing and loose morals.

Musk Restores Iranian Internet
Timothy Birdnow
Elon Musk has restored the internet to Iran after the Mullahs cut it off to prevent an uprising.
Musk might be a bit on the eccentric side but he sure is doing the Lord's work!

A Fuhrer, Not a King
Timothy Birdnow
Like we didn't already know this.
Released Docs: Biden Admin Targeted Law Abiding Citizens as Domestic Terrorists
The truly enraging thing is that the Biden Administration, like the Obama Administration before them, are the ones who acted like Kings, circumventing the laws where it pleased them and spying on Americans with whom they disagreed. "No kings" is far, far more applicable to Biden and Obama than to Trump. (Trump, by the way, is FOLLOWING the laws passed by Congress over the border and pretty much everything else. The lawlessness was Bidens in the first place.)

Mayor "Let's Go" Brandon Johnson Wants Reparations
Timothy Birdnow
"investing in black is not a criminal act.”
chicago mayor Brandon Johnson
Not at all, but stealing money from people - white, Hispanic, Asian, Jewish, Native American - to give "reparations" to black people is. It's still theft.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
And most white folks in America didn't even have ancestors here during slavery, and many didn't have them during Jim Crow.
He complains about not retaining memories of this, not forgiving anything. I suppose he wants America to be like the Balkans where they still kill each-other over a dispute a thousand plus years old.
The genius of America is that we have all been able to put such grievences aside and come together as one people. Forgive and forget. Yes, there has always been some tensions between traditional enemies; the Irish and the English got into range wars in the West not so much over cattle as over the old hatred. But by and large most such hatred die within a generation. I'm half Irish, for example, and my wife is half English. It just stops mattering after a point in time. Or it should.
What Johnson is exemplifying is greed masquerading as "equity" and hatred masquerading as justice. But you can put lipstick on a pig and it still squeels.
When I worked in real estate we hired Bosnians to work in the maintenance department. One time we slipped up, hiring a Serb. They HATED him, would do nothing but curse at him. They were all still holding the grudge from the old country. That is what the black leadership wants for America.
As Booker T. Washington observed:
"There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public."
This is the type of black man that founded the NAACP (which was largely founded as a counter to Washington, who advocated working hard and making money to gain acceptance for black folks as opposed to trying to seize political power) and this Mayor is the same such person. Washington had it right, at least where those self-proclaimed leaders are concerned.
Why? There's lots of money in it. It's a whole industry; just look at the money Jesse Jackson made, or Al Sharpton, both mediocrities who built empires on greivance.
Keep in mind there are a great many black folks who bust their tails and earn their places in society - and they are just as victimized by the greivance whores as the Asians or the Hispanics or the White People. This attitude is the enemy of all (including those it ostensibly claims to want to help, who are held in a kind of eternal plantation mentality.)
Earning your way and making your life your own is the essence of being a success. Being given your life, no matter how pleasant, is just another form of slavery.

Media Mutters
Timothy Birdnow
It couldn't be that small town America, the farmers, the small businesses, the rural miners and whatnot have been decimated by Progressive policies over the years?
Jim Acosta Says the ‘Far-Right Has Infiltrated the Heartland,’ Led Farmers Astray
This is the kind of self-delusion that only an elitist from the coast can indulge.
Middle America has been treated like a bunch of toothless hillbillies by the Ruling Class for decades now and the policies these people have put in place have been horribly destructive. Farms have disappeared at an alarming rate, being purchased by corporations or gobbled up by government. Taxes have strangled middle America. NAFTA and the other so-called "free trade" policies led to exactly what even some Democrats predicted "that giant sucking sound" which took all the better blue collar jobs. Environmental regulations and health and safety regulations eliminated many profitable farming enterprises (anyone remember tobacco farmers?) They have waged war on coal. They have waged war on domestic oil production. They have waged war on fossil fuel powered equipment, making it more expensive (farmers MUST have such equipment or go under.) Fianance too has systematically squeezed the farming community as well as small businesses in general, especially since DEI was implemented and it pushed loans to minorities rather than to those who were actually using the money for their businesses. Cattlemen were driven off public lands, leading to the Bundy standoff in Nevada, for instance. And always there were more and more aliens pouring into the country to replace the native born folks in the heartland. Middle America didn't like being replaced.
Acosta said:
He specifically blamed Rush Limbaugh, whom he sees as a svengali who hypnotized the public. This shows how out of touch he is; Rush was from the Heartland itself - Cape Girardeau Mo. (BTW My family hailed in part from there) and he simply stated what many in Middle America were already thinking but were afraid to say - and lacked the research to back it up.
(Oh, Rush used to read this blog, I might add.)
Acosta is right about one thing; the old news model no longer works. That is in no small part because now everyone has cell phones with cameras and we can see the raw footage and judge for ourselves without it first passing through the filter of the media. People are all now journalists themselves. And with the internet it's possible to post these videos or these news stories that the mainstream neglects.
A great example of this when it first started was the Drudge Report. Drudge was just a guy who started a blog, nothing special. But the story about Monica Lewinsky was being frozen out by the Mandarins of the media; Michael Isikoff had the story already written but his editors wouldn't publish. someone leaked it to Druge and it exploded, roiling the political landscape and leading to the impeachment of William Jefferson Blythe Clinton. This began the revolution which saw the explosion of blogs (like this one, which itself is a spinoff of American Thinker, a Rush approved site as was this.) Social media only made the dissemination of information easier, even while they desperately tried to control news by lots of dirty little tricks (shadow-banning, suspending writers, etc.) The fact is the old model where so-called journalists get news stories from the wire services and rewrite those to suit their own biases is broken. They can't manage the news anymore; it's coming at everyone pretty much in a raw state. And then there are places like The Aviary which puts a different slant on things.
How often have we encountered the groupthink of mainstream media over an issue? The exact same phrase repeated over and over? Anyone remember when George W. Bush was running "gravitas"? Nobody used that phrase until Bush, then they all did. Or how about the way they kept repeating Trump said there was vote fraud without any evidence? EVERY SINGLE STORY about the election inserted that phrase. But it wasn't true then and it isn't true now. Or how about the lie that said Trump praised white supremacists at Charlottesville?? You can see the whole clip, and read the entire transcript and know it is a lie. But the media, while no longer saying it, never fact checks any Democrats who do.
This is the Empire of Lies Acosta gave fealty to and that Acosta seeks to protect.
To those on the Left there is no concrete reality. There are just frames of reference, particular viewpoints. (Heck, George Lucas enshrined this view in Star Wars,for crying out loud!) Reality can be changed by an act of will, and by controlling how any issue is framed. This has served them well for some time, as long as the public has not had access to any other source of information. Now they do and reality is reasserting itself. The media built an empire by twisting reality.
And it goes all the way back to the birth of the Progressive movement, when William Randolf Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer contended for control of the American mind. Journalists all attend the same schools which teach them to be activists, not simply recorders of events. Most kids in journalism school do it because they want to "make a difference" as polling shows (not to present people with the Truth). Well, as Frank Capra said "if you want to send a message try Western Union". Of course Capra's was a minority view in Hollywood.
Actually this business with the press goes back even farther; the Enlightenment was triggered by the invention of the printing press, which the Protestants used as a most effective tool to attack Catholicism. The Philosophe's of the Enlightenment saw this effectiveness and started multiple newspapers to get their sometimes revolutionary views out. They also started schools to teach people to read their newspapers. The French Revolution was the inevitable afterbirth of this, and from that came the rise of Socialism through Rousseau and socialism has been the driving force of civilization ever since, even though it is a horribly bad idea that has never worked for people for more than a generation at most (and in fact not even that.) Every revolutionary movement from Fascism to Bolshevism has at it's roots the philosophy of Rousseau, and has succeeded by control of the press. That machine that inks typeset and puts it on paper overthrew the whole world.
But now the electrons are overthrowing the printing, and the mad king is trembling as they see the writing finger on the wall. They are losing their power and are unwilling to admit why that is so. They have gaslit the whole world for a hundred years or more now.
Eventually, no matter how vivid the dream, one must awaken. We are doing that now.
Our big problem now is AI, which is going to sweep aside the upstart order of blogs and podcasts and a.m. radio. It's centralized and can be programmed to do what the media used to do. We have to find a way to make sure it doesn't just restart the Black Iron Prison. '
The Bible says Christ will "destroy them with the sword of His mouth and the brightness of His coming". What is that but the light of truth over the kingdom of lies we've lived with for so long? If we believe in the Bible we have every reason for ultimate confidence in defeating the system of lies being peddled by men such as Acosta. He will be cut down by a truthful tongue and the bright light of truth.

The FBI Snake Pit
Timothy Birdnow
The FBI scrubbed their memo on the Chicoms defrauding the voting system in 2020, where they allegedly had obtained large numbers of fake i.d.'s to obtain mail-in ballots to help fraudulently elect Joe Biden President.
This information has been "disappeared" by the FiBers.
From the article:
I remember the big fight over this back then; Big tech scrubbed information from search engines, kept it off Facebook and other social media (I know; I was shadow-banned by them) and news reports ALWAYS used the same phrase "Trump alleges fraud without evidence" (even Fox News used this in any story about voter fraud) and yet we had the FBI itself saying there was some monkey business - then disappearing that down the memory hole to make Trump appear crazy and those of us who actually looked into it appear foolish and brainwashed.
As time went on it became increasingly difficult for me and others to make the argument because it became impossible to find things we had read just a short time before. Providing evidence to the "it was a clean election" folks became increasingly difficult because it was nowhere to be found.
But it was there all the time; just hidden.
The statistician William Briggs did a complicated forensic on the election and showed it was simply not statistically possible to have that particular outcome. But that never seemed to get through people's skulls. And without stuff like this to back it up it was just "he said, she said".
Increasingly we are getting evidence proving there was massive fraud in that election. But readers here already knew that.
Did it change the outcome of the election? That is the real question, isn't it. I am sure it did. Biden was never the legitimate President. (Well,he was insofar as the Electoral College elects the President but attempts to put forward alternate slates of electors ended with those folks being arrested and charged with crimes for trying to uphold the Constitution.)
I suppose this was a good thing; it woke the American People up to the reality of what a Progressive Administration actually means - anti-American, anti-growth, pro-socialism, pro-crime, divisive, and just plain corrupt.
The FBI in particular was terribly corrupted during the Obama years and under the Deep State care during Trump's brief tenure of office the first time. And of course Biden supercharged it's abusive nature.
Now they are exposed. Let's pray Patel and Bongino can clean up that snake pit.
The FBI scrubbed their memo on the Chicoms defrauding the voting system in 2020, where they allegedly had obtained large numbers of fake i.d.'s to obtain mail-in ballots to help fraudulently elect Joe Biden President.
This information has been "disappeared" by the FiBers.
From the article:
The intended purpose, according to the report, was to use the licenses to allow ineligible individuals, including Chinese nationals sympathetic to the CCP, to submit fraudulent mail-in ballots in the 2020 presidential election.
"The fraudulent driver’s licenses would allow tens of thousands of Chinese students and immigrants sympathetic to the Chinese Communist Party to vote for U.S. presidential candidate USPER Joe Biden despite not being eligible to vote in the United States,” the report stated.
The intelligence memo also alleged that the Chinese government obtained real U.S. citizens’ names, addresses, and identification numbers through TikTok data harvesting.
It said that "China had collected private US user data from millions of TikTok accounts, to include name, ID and address,” and used that data to craft driver’s licenses that included "true ID number and true address of US citizens,” making them harder to detect.
Shortly after distribution, the FBI issued a recall notice directing all intelligence agencies to delete the memo and destroy all copies.

Agitprop Media Lies About "Mosstly Peaceful Protests" Again
Timothy Birdnow
How to slant the news:
New Report Shows Just How Biased CNN and MSNBC Are: 48 Peaceful Riots
Lies of omission are still lies, and repeating "mostly peaceful protests" is still a lie.
Over the weekend I heard a conversation between two liberals about this subject. They argued that Fox News kept showing the same three cars on fire and intimated they were the ONLY three, rather than that those three were just the tip of the iceberg and Fox just didn't happen to be on-site to capture the rest. They also argued that L.A. is five hundred some-odd miles in area and these riots are only a small fraction ofthe city. Well, Ferguson was only a small fraction of St. Louis and the riots there ONLY happened along West Florissant avenue, but we all called them huge riots and the National Guard was called out anyway. And what, pray tell, was J6 other than a very localized "mostly peaceful protest"?
A riot in a small area will become a riot in a big area if not stopped.
At any rate the intent is to color people's views on the matter. A few malcontents scuffle with the Capitol Police and it's an insurrection while a big group of rioters burn cars and break windows (something that did NOT happen at the Capitol building) and it's "mostly peaceful". They hypocrisy is astounding.
From Lifezette:
This is how Leftists foment revolutions and have done so since the Revolution of 1848 in Europe, and it has been wildly successful. I would add that there is considerable evidence of funding for this by the chinese via a shadowy billionaire named Neville Singum and others. And no doubt the Tides Foundation and Open Society are intimately involved.
(BTW a Google search for links for stories about Chinese funding of this ran into a brick wall, with an error page showing up almost immeditatley. It was a page I've never seen before too. How CONVENIENT!)
At any rate the Agitprop Media is once again lying by omission at a minimum, pretending there is nothing to see here because polls have shown the American People are on Trump's side and not on the side of a bunch of Mexican and Palestine-flag waving scofflaws.

They hypocrisy is astounding.
From Lifezette:
A new analysis from the Media Research Center (MRC) shows that CNN and MSNBC collectively referred to anti-ICE protests and riots in Los Angeles as "peaceful” more than 200 times over a recent 48-hour period, even as video footage and official reports showed widespread violence, looting, and attacks on law enforcement.
According to the study released by MRC, between the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. from June 7 to June 11, there were 211 separate instances across the two cable news networks in which reporters, anchors, pundits, or guests described the events in Los Angeles using terms such as "peaceful,” "mostly peaceful,” or "largely peaceful.”
During this time frame, both CNN and MSNBC aired multiple interviews with elected officials from California, several of whom also referred to the events as peaceful despite ongoing reports of store break-ins, arson, and assaults on police officers.

The Ill-Hand of Omar
Timothy Birdnow
Uh, Ilhan grew up in Somalia, a country with essentially NO government. She did not grow up in a dictatorship.
She was just 12 years old when she immigrated, I might add. It's doubtful in a land where you might get four hours of electicity per day she had much contact with the political fighting in her home country.
My question is, if she thinks the U.S. is so terrible, why does she stay? She is welcome to return to Somalia any time she likes.
I would also point out that a dictator would simply arrest her and imprison her in some deep, dark hole, or have her assassintated. A dictator wouldn't let her run her big mouth in this way, nor let her serve in Congress. These are prime examples of how Trump is NOT a dictator.
And how did she find the time, what with her marriage to her brother and all? (It's not as gross as it sounds; she married him to circumvent immigration law and get him into the country; I doubt even SHE is so low as to actually consummate the marriage.)
"I grew up in a dictatorship, and I don’t even remember ever witnessing anything like that,”
"To have a democracy — a beacon of hope for the world — to now be turned into one of the, you know, one of the worst countries where the military are in our streets without any regard for people’s constitutional rights, while our president is spending millions of dollars propping himself up like a failed dictator.”

Khamenei Gives 'Em the Zulfiqar
Timothy Birdnow
Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei with an ominous message:
Ayatollah Khamenei
Kaybar was a great battle where Islam's first Imam - Ali - carried the day with his sword which he called Zulfigar. It is NOT something they do in San Francisco (which was my first thought when reading it.)
Iran plans to fight to the end.

Fraud Scheme in Minnesota
Timothy Birdnow
Here is a rundown on a vote-fraud scheme up in Minnesota, where the DFL (the Democrats + farm labor parties) has worked tirelessly to implement fraudulent voter registration to steal elections.
It's sad; Minnesota USED to be largely above fraud. But no more.Politics is all nationalized these days,most especially where Democrats are concerned.
You will note the two people involved came from Nevada,not Minnesota.
At any rate this is a microcosm of what went on around the country and anyone who tries to deny elections are rigged to no small degree is either a fool or self-deluded. Every day more evidence is produced showing a vast fraud machine.

Jobs Americans Will do After all
Timothy Birdnow
ICE raids a Nebraska meat packing plant, deporting workers from "jobs Americans just won't do". Guess what?
A Funny Thing Happened after ICE Raided a Meatpacking Plant
You guessed it; a flood of native born Americans showed up to apply for the vacated jobs.
Jobs Americans just won't do my a, er, posterior!

Gang Green; It's Never Enough!
Timothy Birdnow
Hew boy! Don't they ever get tired of self-flagellation?
"Climate dread is everywhere: the panic, the guilt, the looming sense that nothing we do is enough.”
Climate hysterics, like all liberals, must live a life of exhaustion and defeat.

Report on Muslim Child RapeGangs

The UK Finally Releases Report on Pakistani Child Rape Gangs; Keir Starmer Delays the Report In Order to Quickly Reverse His Previous Position Against a Full Government Investigation Into the Government's Complicity in the Mass Rapes of Children
Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11
In other words the U.K. government feared a backlash against the hordes of Muslims pouring into formerly Great Britain and wanted their project to make Britain safe for Islamic Jihad continue without disruption.

Trump; Get Out of Tehran
Timothy Birdnow
It looks increasingly bad for Iran.
Trump says all of Tehran should evacuate ‘immediately’ amid intensifying conflict
The Mullahs probably have a nuclear facility buried under Tehran to avoid it being destroyed. That is how Hamas does things; why not the Iranian regime?

Whither Go Iran?
Timothy Birdnow
Well duh!
Iran May Strike Back Through Unconventional Means
The author here is captain Obvious; Iran has ALWAYS struck back through unconventional means.
Only thing is they are going to have to try after losing most of her terrorist network, much of her financial resources, and much of her military infrastructure.
But they will not go quietly into that good night. The Iranian mullahs still think that dude who fell down the well is climbing back out of it soon. (The 12th Imam) and that Armageddon is coming, ushering in the age of Allah.
When that kind of thinking drives your foreign policy you will do whatever it takes.
