This from The Federalist:

" A Census Bureau change enables blue states to keep congressional seats because their population is propped up with illegal aliens."

Yes, they are giving more power to the Democrats using illegal aliens to count as "Americans".

Can Trump reverse this? In time perhaps.

Tthey tried to pull this during Trump's first tenure of office too, I might add, and the media went ballistic over Trump's "census tampering" when it was they who were census tampering by counting illegals and affording them power over the distribution of House seats.

It really frosts me they call what Trump did "interference" when it is they who interfered with the duties of the census bureau in the first place.

House Democrats actually passed a bill to enshrine counting illegals as part of the census and not ask citizenship questions but it stalled in the Senate. The Republican House of Representatives passed a bill restoring the Trump-era policies but of course it never went anywhere. America has been operating under a Biden XO which gives California and other states full of illegals (like Illinois) greater clout in government. (For example, Illinois created a whole district - a very serpentine Gerrymandered district - just for a political hack named Nikki Budzinski, who would be gone if Illinois wasn't benefitting from the illegal alien head-count. BTW Budzinski is a babe but a leftist loon.)

At any rate Biden is trying to cement this into place - now why do you suppose it's so important to him? And why did he leave the border wide open and invite these people in in the first place?

In other illegal alien news, the United Auto Workers union is spending big bucks to get Michigan to give driver's licenses to illegals because, obviously, that's such a great benefit to the American laborer. Isn't training their replacements what UAW members pay dues to accomplish? And how will these replacements get to and from their jobs if they can't drive?

My brother is an auto worker and he sings the praises of the current president of the union. I suspect even he won't be too happy with this move.

It's taken a long, long time but the rank-and-file of the working class is starting to realize their union bosses and their Democrat champions have been screwing them over for decades now.

Here is a lengthy analysis of the pros and cons of "Gain of Function" research. It is worth a read.

My own view is that GOF research is a Frankensteinian form of hubris that could well lead to utter destruction and is best avoided. The benefits of any such research are far outweighed by the dangers.

At any rate, one wonders if the plagues of the Apocalypse are not the results of mad scientists (like Anthony Fauci) playing with forces beyond their understanding. Certainly they seem content to gamble with humanity's existence.

This morning my wife Cathy and I were discussing tthe monstrous bad taste of Jill Biden's "holiday display" as the White House calls it. It is more fitting for a '30's traveling circus than the President's domicile, but such is life.

The point is as Cathy said, why is everyone so exercised about this? We all knew she had bad taste - look who she married.

So let's all wish the Biden's a very Merry Christmas with their Santas with big red noses (he doesn't need Rudolf) and giant clown shoes on the Three Wise Men. No doubt she was trying to make Joe remember his youth when he attended such circuses and at ice cream in the hopes his mind lasts until Jan. 20 when Biden can squeek his way off-stage with his horn and lapel flower.

A bit of Yuletide is coming to Syria this year as the interim government has declared Christmas a national holiday in the wake of a rather unpleasant burning of a Christmas tree by Islamists that spread fear throughout the Syrian Christian community.

The tree burning frightened Christians and other religious minorities because it suggested the new order was signalling it's willingness to oppress non-Muslims.

Maybe there's hope for the region after all!

The Ruling Class in Britain is terrified that what happened in America could happen to them. They are pushing multiple schemes to cement themselves in power.

According to an article in AOl quoting Sky News, we learn the depths to which they are willing to sink. Labor's Lucy Powell said:

"Because we are committed to things like voter 16, which is in our manifesto. (Givng the vote to sixteen year olds.)

"And our manifesto also said that we would look at other issues to make sure that our elections in this country are fair or robust, many of the issues that are undermining our democracy at the moment – like mis- and disinformation, foreign state actions and so on, and making sure that the issues around donations are also fair and robust as well.”

end

There is talk of P.M. Stamer pushing through a law to prevent Elon Musk from helping the Nigel Farage's party. in the upcoming elections, I might add.

The winds of change are blowing, and as usual the Left will do anything to hang onto power.

So, according to Joe Biden, Iran may build nuclear weapons because they were weakened by the fall of syria and Israel's prosecution of the war on Hezbollah and NOT because Biden gave them billions of dollars and said "have at it"!

From the U.K. Telegraph:

"Iran could move to build a nuclear bomb after being weakened by wars in the Middle East, the White House has warned Donald Trump.
Joe Biden’s National security advisor said he had briefed the incoming president on the "risk” of Tehran obtaining the weapons.
It comes as Mr Trump is reportedly considering airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities when he becomes commander in chief again.
Jake Sullivan, the White House national security adviser, said he has told the Trump team to be "vigilant” for the threat of nuclear escalation."

end

So it's not that Biden removed sanctions on Iran, orr that he paid them off with cold, hard cash for releasing hostages, or that he unfroze their assets; no sir! It's that they are losing in world affairs!

When Barack Hussein Obama said Biden "efffec up everything" he wasn't wrong.

Iran has continued to advance their nuclear program under Biden with the promise they wouldn't use it. Ri-ight!

Where is Daniel Penny when you need him?

Suspect Accused of Settting NYC Subway Rider on Fire Arrested

Seems a Guatemalan illegal alien set a woman on fire right in front of everyone and nobody acted to stop him - because they feared Alvin Bragg would come after them.

This is what happens when the law protects the criminals and not the citizenry.

The monster actually sat and watched the woman burn, and the police told him to 'move along' when they tried to put her out. (They figured nobody would be so brazen as to remain there.) He was caught only because some high school kids saw him on the train and reported him when he got on another train.

Someone could have stopped this but didn't. Nobody even tried to extinguish the poor woman as she burned out of fear.

These are the fruits of "defund the police" and Soros-backed prosecutors like Bragg.

Trump wants the Panama Canal back - and Panama is resisting. Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino is alleged [https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/12/22/trump-hits-back-panama-president-keeping-canal/] to say "no way me!" and Trump warned him "we'll see about that!"

I like this proposal by Trump. That canal is rightfully ours by virtue of our labor in building it, and by our defending it.

I remember when Jimmy Carter sought to do the canal giveaway and all the liberal newspapers were whining about how we "stole" it from Panama. We did no such thing! There was no Panama then; it was part of Columbia. The Panamanians declared their independence when America showed up because they had the chance, and thus their nation owed it's existence to the canal. We gave them their country. The "gunboat diplomacy" was ours against Columbia, and if anyone should have had first dips on the canal after the U.S. it was Columbia.

The papers also whined about the prospects of terrorism and said we were better off without the canal. And they suggested we build a new canal in Nicaragua, a sea level canal. Of course now the Chinese communists operate the Panama Canal and Nicaragua is run by the Communist Sandanista.

Carter had no right to give away the canal (he sold it for one dollar and agreed to pay ten million a year for the use of the canal to Panama.)
The U.S. had paid $10 million for the canal zone when that was good money, and a yearly payment of $250 grand in perpetuity.

So Trump wants to tear up the deal and take the canal back, and well he should. It was a terrible deal then and it remains a security risk for us now.

We give foreign aid to Panama. Panama enjoys some trade and other economic benefits from the U.S. which it would be a shame for them to lose. But if they don't want us around, then they can go to the Chinese instead. We can pull American companies out of Panama. We can boycott them.

Or they can sell the canal back to us at a profit, and enjoy the protection of the American military. Their choice.

Trump's idea of the U.S. buying Greenland is back.

You may remember,the President suggested we might want to buy the giant frozen island and was sneered at by the media, who cannot fathom the concept of America actually growing and moving ahead. Well,Trump is renewing his call for an American Greenland!

A couple of points on this:

It'sa big, frozen chunk of nothing and offers little in the way of benefit to the U.S. now, but...

I have read rumors that Greenland may be sitting on oil. Black gold.Texas tea. And while Denmark may own the island (called Kalaallit Nunaat by natives) it has done little to develop it. With American know-how we could have an oil boom there that would make the eskimoes who live there rich.

Also,America already has a military base in Greenland, notably at Thule in the very north which has been renamed Pituffic, the Space Force base in the wilds of the north shore. We could theoretically lose that bases at any time if Denmark should so decide. Given the importance of the Arctic for missile launches if the Big One ever hits Greenland would be a very important platform for our national defense.

Also, IF YOU BELIEVE IN GLOBAL WARMING and think we'll have an "ice free Arctic" as so many do (they've been predicting that for decades and it will happen any day now...) then the Northwest Passage would be under American control and not Danish (who cannot control it given they have just 20 ships in their navy, compared to the U.S. which possesses 280. Denmark can only hold Greenland with American help if attacked.

But what I like most about this proposal is that it is forward-thinking, dreaming big, believing America can still grow and do great things. This is at odds with the prevailing liberal view that our last days are behind us and we should learn to manage our decline. This is the spirit that built America.

But the question is, how much will it cost; we are flat broke, having squandered our money on studies of bait fish and gay dating practices in Argentina and a host of other useless things.

But at least when you buy land you buy something real, tangible, and it won't go away. It may be taken from you but it doesn't just disappear. And you never know what will turn up on that land.

The American Left always wants to "Go Green". I say "Go Greenland!"

Tha MF Joe Biden went and did it to the American People.

Biden Commutes Sentences of Nearly All Federal Death Row Inmates

He wasn't content with burning down America while in office, his party gift to us on Christmas is to keep these people alive, people who were sentenced to death for horrific crimes.

Merry Christmas all the families and loved ones of the victims!

I thought it quite mad when Leftists were suggesting he do this and didn't think even Biden was a big enough SOB to try it; turns out I was wrong.

Here is a long and interesting essay that half gets it. I have a number of issues with this writer's views but overall he's starting to awaken.

He argues that the sea change we've seen in America in recent days is largely the work of Barack Obama and while Obama certainly put many of the formal structures in place these tactics predated the coming of The One. While the author admits that he doesn't seem to grasp that this has been a century long project that has labored to implement the Ruling Class dream of world government and international socialism. Obama was merely one brick in that wall.

Obama, with the aid of David Axelrod, simply updated century-old tactics used by Marxists and Fascists the world over, updated these to work in the age of the internet. But what he did was no different than what Hitler or Mussolini did; they all co-opted the big corporations and government, forging a seamless whole that worked tirelessly to promote the new vision for their respective countries. Peer pressure and twisting the educational system, along with the use of the new electronic media, was a hallmark of fascism and naziism and this is essentially no different.

Lies are the natural medium for tyrants and dictators, and gaslighting the public is exactly what they have alwasy done. For example, Gaius Caligula left Rome at the head of an army to much fanfare to conquer Britain. He got a few miles from town, turned around, grabbed some farmers to represent British captives, and then marched triumphantly into Rome, proclaiming he had conquered Britain. The public cheered wildly and pretended to believe what they knew was a lie because the repercussions would be dire.

Caligula was batcrap crazy, of course, and everyone knew this was balogna. But it is fundamentally no different than what this author is discussing; an attempt to make people believe a lie to empower those in a position of authority.

And none of this is much different from the tall tales and legends that grew up around some political leaders. Take "honest Abe" the railsplitter who used his homespun background to great advantage while implementing a rather tyrannical system (Lincoln suspended the rule of habeas corpus, for instance, and imprisoned newspapermen who wrote unflattering stories about him or his government) but who today is "the Great Emancipator" and considered the savior of "democracy". Lincoln knew how to play the game. Other examples are both Roosevelts, who pretty much gaslit the American People. (In fact, Franklyn was in a wheel chair but the media refused to report that to the public).

The reality is the press turned hard left long ago, with the PUlitzers and Hearst competing to see who could out-Progressive the other and the two divied up the nation's news outlets. We've had a hundred years of media monopoly. Then when the internet came along the U.S. government funded the creation of Google and probably Facebook too, and these two entities now own most of said internet.

What Obama did was not new; it was just the natural next step.

(BTW Dwight D. Eisenhower warned of the rise of the technocracy in his Farewell Address. Do read it all.)

This author seems to be looking at this too much through the lense of politics and technology but seems to miss the big picture. Groups like the John Birch Society have long chronicled a rising technocratic/commercial conspiracy and were mocked for their troubles. Yet this seems to be what we have seen come in recent years. Cold comfort to the Cassandras in the JBS, I'm sure.

The author says "every form of totalitarianism is unique" but I disagree. They are pretty much all the same, except they have different details that inform how they oppress. But the methods are always the same, and always advancing as technology gives them an ever-tightening grip.

The Nazis were not just about Jew hatred. They were socialists who wanted government's hand in everything and wanted the state to be God. Mussolini - a Fascist, granted, which is different than a Nazi - famously stated "everything within the state, nothing outside of the state" which is the exact same philosophy as any marxist holds. The key difference between Fascism and Marxism is that the state does not own the means of production outright (yet) and believes in using Man's natural spirituality - something the marxists reject in favor of economic determinism alone. But otherwise their goals were the same. Naziism too.

And the Nazis looked quite modern if you understand what they believed. They were big into environmentalism (before the word was coined) and set aside large swaths of land for parks and nature preserves. In fact, part of why they hated Jews was because of this environmentalism; they believed in Darwinian Natural Selection and thought of Jews as an "invasive species" that needed to be weeded out. They also wanted only public education. They also were health Nazis, seeking to control the public diet and force people to exercise. They also wanted to contro the media and ban the Church or seriously regulate it. They hated smoking. They regulated industry to the point where only major corporations under their thumbs were allowed. Many of the Nazis were homosexuals, I might add, and many promoted promiscuity even while holding double standards about how this was practiced.(The double standard was evident in the Nazi relationship to homosexuals; the effeminate types were condemned and mistreated while the butch gays were a sizable portion of the Nazi party, most notably Ernst Rohm.)

All of this is seen in our modern era and also much of it was practiced by the Bolsheviks and many other leftist tyrants.

I would add the Bolsheviks were anti-semitic too, as is our current modern Democratic Leftists.

The author also seems to ascribe to an old, rather riduculous theory, that people did not have internal monologues in ancient times but that this is a mdoern construct of recent centuries. I first encountered this theory in a college psychology course and thought it ridiculous at the time and still do. That the Greeks and Romans and Hebrews don't mention internal monologues hardly disproved their existence. Bicameral mentality is a hypothesis introduced by Julian Jaynes. He claims that ancient humans heard voices like schizophrencs from the right hemisphere of their brains and that was the way the gods came into existence; people assumed they were hearing a separate entity when in fact it was just the right side of their brains talking to them. Somehow this was lost in the rising modernity and we now subsume the right side of the brain. That is utter hogwash without any evidence, if you ask em. How did this change then? It wouldn't have. Oh, and the right hemisphere lacks a language center so cannot speak verbally. People with split brain syndrome show that.

Still his argument isn't wrong; he believes the Left is trying to degrade consciousness and put an outside entity in charge of our thought process. (Well, Orwell and Huxley both said that long ago.) As he puts it, it's institutionalized schizophrenia.

And we see that in the young today, who are always on their smartphones and do not seem to have an original thought that does not come out of a machine. They are the ultimate slaves; their thoughts are not their own.

The author rightly points to Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter as a major turning point; the power of mind control only works as long as everybody is on board. Like a leveee; you can't have one setion open or the flood waters will pour in. Once Musk came into the picture and liberated one of the cornerstones of the leftist media control the dominoes began to fall.

But they aren't fallen yet and the Left will begin anew, make no mistake.

The author (David Samuels) came to his senses over Obama's policies to Iran, and he touts Netanyahu's strong stand as a key to the crunbling of the "permission structure". Perhaps but I think it was inevitable; Netanyahu had to protect his own country and just couldn't continue the farce.

But it was certainly another jenga piece removed from the dark tower.

I wrote about just why the Left loves Muhammed and this explains why Obama (probably Muslim himself) promoted the Ayatollahs to the detriment of the rest of the world. Islam was the model for the Left since socialism was first invented by Rousseau at the dawn of the 19th century. Obama and company naturally seek to support it.

In the end if this "New World Order" with the artificial reality really is finished I would ascribe that to God and not Man. Enough people prayed for Divine intervention, clearly. IF.

At any rate, do read the whole essay; it's worth your time, even if it is a bit too long.

A report says China will build one thousand new nuclear weapons by 2030.

That will increase their nuclear stockpile to approximately 1500, and these will all be new weapons and no doubt superior to our own aging Reagan-era arsenal.

The U.S., by comparison, has 5,428 warheads as esto,ated by the Union of concerned scientists (I've seen lower estimates, as low as 3,000), but many of them are quite old, some predating Reagan, and the missiles still use vacuum tubes, for crying out loud! Our newest weapons were built under Trump,but not that many. I rather suspect China will be our equal with 1500 new weapons as half of ours probably won't detonate when used.

One article from 2015 stated the average age was 27 years,so the U.S. arsenal goes back to the eighties.

Trump tried to reverse that but had to build all new labs and factories to upgrade our weapons systems, and he didn't actually produce many new ones. Sadly Biden killed these programs before they bore fruit (as in mushrooms).

During the obama era Barrack Hussein closed the very last plutonium plant in America, by the way, so we cannot even produce this vital component of nuclear weapons.

BTW the Russian arsenal is 5,580 nuclear weapons and all of them were built in this century, most in 2005 but many later.

Bolth the U.S. and Russia have just 1,600 actively deployed warheads though.

So a Sino-Russian pact could fry the U.S. if it so chose, and we may not be able to shoot back all that well.

This means Trump will have to spend a fortune to retool our nuclear arsenal (along with the fortune he'll spend to deport all the aliens) and hence inflation isn't going away any time soon, alas.

Anyway China is determined to reach parity with the U.S. in terms of nukes and we should be very concerned about that.

How do we stop them? We need to squeeze China economically. Trump's planned tariffs are the key, in my humble opinion.

I've long argued China is a paper tiger that will fold if facing any real competition. Right now it has none,because the Western world likes the cheap goods and likes the pollution being in China and not in THEIR backyards. There was no reason for China to become the behemoth it is now; that was a conscious policy by the internationalists and the Establishment in the West to build a "counterbalance" to the U.S. and to create a cheap manufacturing center. But the Chinese economy has always been a command economy and itt's corporations are not free market at all but owned entirely by the Communists in China. That is not a long-term stable economic model. China itself needs to create millions of jobs each year for those entering the workforce. The whole model is predicated on an ever-expanding economy. If they face true economic hardship they will probably collapse.

Yes,their economy is better than the old Soviet economy, but you may remember there was much talk of the "Soviet miracle" back before WWII too. That was a potemkin village, a mirage, a false front. I think China's economy is as well. We see signs of that now, with the real estate collapse and other such problems. I think one big push will end the Chicom economic dominance. Oh, and India is gunning for them, and they have everything the Chinese had to work with too. India is the coming power in my view and in the view of others.

There is only so much of the pie that Chines enjoys to go around. If India takes a sizable part of China's market shares the Chinese economy will crash.

And that will end their plans for nuking up. Or so we must hope.
