Whining from the WSJ

Timothy Birdnow

The Wall Street Journal cries like a teenage girl whose boyfriend asked another girl to the dance in one of the whiniest pieces about Kash Patel and the FBI I have ever had the misfortune of seeing.

FTA (if I had to suffer through it you may as well do likewise):

His first week at the bureau has laid bare the extent to which his tenure could upend the tradition-bound agency and transform its culture, according to interviews with a dozen current and former FBI officials.

Soon after arriving, Patel cleared out all civil-service staff in the leadership suites and replaced them with political associates; ordered 1,500 employees relocated out of Washington without money in place to pay for the move; and broke a promise he made to agents to appoint a deputy from their ranks.
FBI headquarters in Washington.

He also got a second job running another law-enforcement agency, an unusual arrangement given that being FBI director is seen as one of the toughest jobs in government.

Patel’s partisan background as a surrogate for Trump during the 2024 election campaign and open criticism of the agency set him apart from previous FBI directors. Patel and the president share the view that the FBI must be purged of what they perceive as bias against Trump and other conservatives. His ascendance to the job after officials from Trump’s first administration found him unqualified and untrustworthy is a remarkable one.

I would remind everyone that while the Wall Street Journal has a conservative editorial board, by and large (they are Bush-style Republican internationalists who like making money but have always hated Trump's brand of patriotic conservatism) their news department is actually the most biased of all journalistic enterprises SLANTING TO THE LEFT.

The article continues:

"On Friday, his first day on the job, Patel ordered officials to relocate 1,500 employees from Washington to cities with high crime rates including Minneapolis, Detroit and Cleveland. Another FBI official piped in with a harsh reality, according to people familiar with the exchange: Each move could cost up to $100,000, and the bureau didn’t have the funds to cover such a restructuring, the official said. Government agencies generally aren’t allowed to spend money in ways not authorized by Congress, and often don’t have money for basic employee perks like office coffee. Patel was unmoved. Figure out how to do it anyway, and fast, he told them.
Current and former agents have said they support sending more personnel to field offices, but some said they were put off by what they saw as Patel’s insensitivity to the personal challenges and costs agents would face if forced to leave quickly.

I didn't know it was the job of the chief of the FBI to be "sensitive"; I thought it was to enforce laws! Silly me!

Patel is trying to get them to quit, dimbulbs! He wants to winnow the agency down to only those needed to do the job and he isn't allowed to just fire them due to the law, so he's seeing who is willing to fight to stay on. Those hanging around Quantico were probably unnecessary personnel in the first place.

So cry me a river. This has been a long time coming. And it has to be done, and ruthlessly and right now; this is the moment we have to accomplish a restoration of government. Wait until an election year and all the momentum is lost.

Steyn on the German Elections

Timothy Birdnow

Mark Steyn does an analysis of the German elections and says "meet the new boss, same as the old boss".

The "conservative party" and Merz's unwillingness to partner with the AFD means nothing changes in Germany and the country will continue to slide into the ashbin of history.

In fifty years all that will be left of Germany will be the name; the culture and the people will be gone, subsumed into the new Middle East.

What is English?

Timothy Birdnow

A British Indian asks "what does it mean to be English" and decides it's more than just being born in a place but goes to ethnic and cultural roots that transcend the current view of society that Englishness (or Frenchness, or Danishness, or what have you) is conferred just by showing up.

A good read. He makes an argument that used to be standard but is now considered taboo.

Meghan Kelly Has Illness from Covid Shot

Timothy Birdnow

Meghan Kelly was a big promoter of the Covid shot back in he early days of this decade and she bragged when she received it. Now she has an autoimmune disease and is repenting of her earlier advocacy - but it's sadly too late.

From Western Jounranlism:

"Then, he asked Kelly about her own similar experience. The host has admitted several times in the past that she, too, suffered from autoimmune-related problems after getting the Pfizer vaccine and booster.

"Yeah, that I tested positive for an autoimmune condition, though it was undiagnosed or unspecified which one,” Kelly said.
Are you surprised that so many vaccine injuries are appearing?
Yes No

Yes: 5% (34 Votes)
No: 95% (648 Votes)

"Right. OK,” Malhotra replied. "And in your mind you feel it may have been linked [to the vaccine]?”

Kelly then explained that she asked that very question of her rheumatologist, who replied, "Yes, I do.”

"In New York, you couldn’t travel. You couldn’t do anything unless you proved — it was just ridiculous,” the host recalled. "I wish I hadn’t done it, but I did.”

Hindsight is 20/20. The fact is everyone trusted the medical community and they were lying to us about both the safety and efficacy of the drug, which essentially underwent it's clinical trials in the general population. Kelly assumed, wrongly, that this was a vaccine; it wasn't. It was a radical gene therapy, and the genetic damage done is probably irreversible.

In the interest of full disclosure I allowed myself to get badgered into getting the shot. I was traveling with some of my wife's family and they were pretty adamant about it so I took the plunge. Stupid, especially as I have a number of health issues already. As of yet there is nothing new, at least nothing I can point to and say "this is definitely from the shot". So Kelly is to be forgiven for her previous advocacy - she was lied to and she fell for it.

A lot of people will pay dearly for what they did, if not in this life then in the next.

D.C. Jobless Claims Say it All

Timothy Birdnow

Rememnber, all the job growth we experienced since the Pandemic has been in government or filled by illegal aliens.

DOGE Wins As DC Jobless Claims Soared Last Week

No doubt the media will trumpet to the Heavens the poor employment numbers that will be coming as a result of busting out government jobs (which should never have been created in the first place). Biden took credit for that three letter word - JOBS. But most of the jobs he "created" were just rehirings from the pandemic shutdown. Others were taken by the millions of illegals. And the rest were government jobs - he expanded the Federal workforce by over 6% according to offical statistics (he added 709,000 in 2023 along, according to one estimate, and in fact a quarter of all the jobs he "created" were government jobs.

We have to trim this back, at least to what we had just a few short years ago.We cannot fix our financial problems without firing these people.

CDC, EPA Ignore Trump Orders

Timothy Birdnow

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has simply ignored Trump's order severing all ties with the World Health Organization, along with the FDA.

Trump has pulled America out of the WHO for their horrible rsponse to Covid and the fact the U.S. was being stuck with most of the check for the WHO. But that won't stop the internationalists who have agreed to join a conference by WHO anyway in direct violation of the President's directive.

From the article:

"In a blistering report from the U.K.’s Daily Mail, CDC officials confirmed with the outlet that they have no intention of severing ties with the WHO.
Advertisement - story continues below

A CDC representative confirmed with the Mail that the organization "will be actively participating virtually” at an upcoming WHO conference in London about flu vaccines.

Additionally, the Mail reported that the FDA is also participating in this conference, in further defiance of Trump’s executive order.
Related:

The Mail further added: "But the two government agencies would likely have had to seek an exemption from the Trump administration due to its ban on all communications with the WHO.

"Twice annually, WHO organizes consultations with an advisory group of experts to analyze global flu data, with recommendations issued on the composition of vaccines for the next flu season.”

Neither the CDC nor the FDA made public that they would be participating in this conference.

The Bureaucracy is pulling the same crap it pulled last time Trump was in office, simply disregarding his orders as if they were an independent branch of government. Heads need to roll at both agencies.

Gene Hackman RIP

Timothy Birdnow

Gene Hackman RIP.

Yes, the great Gene Hackman has passed awayy. His wife and dog were also found dead in their Santa Fe New Mexico home. He was 94.

Local law enforcement has not announced a cause of death but confirmed they are not at this moment considering foul play.

Hackman was in innumerable movies, breaking out in the iconic Bonnie and Clyde and starring in such great films as The French Connection (for which he won an Oscar), the Poseidon Adventure, Superman (where he played Lex Luther), No Way Out, Unforgiven, and even a small part in Young Frankenstein, among many others. He was an actor's actor, all about the work and not interested in the glitz and glamour.

He had retired about twenty years ago.

I once read Hackman was voted least likely to succeed by his acting school (the Pasadena Playhouse) and passed with the lowest marks possible - goes to show how wrong people can be. Hackman did well because he was dilligent and really worked at his craft.

Dustin Hoffman was there at the same time and also received this high honor. The two became roommates, both determined to prove their detractors wrong.

At any rate Hackman was an icon of American film and will be missed.

Oath Breakers at DOGE

Timothy Birdnow

Why the "mass resignations" at DOGE don't mean jack.

Pure Gold: DOGE Staffers Resigned, Left Misttake Letter Proving Just How Bad They Really Were

The dirty little secret is that all 21 of these staffers were already employed under the U.S. Digital Service, the Obama creation repurposed as DOGE by the Trump Administration (putting the lie to the claim it has no legal authority.)

Western Journalism pokes the sore point:

"They probably should have re-read that email first, however, before it was leaked.

"We swore to serve the American people and uphold our oath to the Constitution across presidential administrations,” the staffers wrote in the collective resignation email. "However, it has become clear that we can no longer honor those commitments.”

Read that again.

Their job, as civil servants, was to serve no matter who the president was. They knew that when they took the oath. They say that.

They also knew they were working at an agency with a broad and obscure purview, except that it mostly had to do with the digital footprint of the U.S. government. From the "Our Mission” page of the USDS’ website, which is still up despite the repurposing to DOGE: "We collaborate with public servants throughout the government to address some of the most critical needs and ultimately deliver a better government experience to people. We work across multiple agencies and bring best practices from our various disciplines, which include engineering, product, design, procurement, data science, operations, talent, and communications.”

I again pose the Bobs’ question from "Office Space”: What would you say … you do here? Because it sounds like pretty much whatever the government wants you to do at that point in time; the main reason the USDS was established in the first place was because of the trainwreck that was the roll-out of Healthcare.gov, the infamous Obamacare portal. Since then, it’s mostly done whatever digital work suited the administration in charge.

So they swore an oath to uphold the Constitution and do their duties regardless of administration at a vague, distal limb of the Beltway leviathan and now admit, actually, they didn’t really mean it if they’re being asked to be civil servants under a president that makes them do something they disagreed with.

TL;DR: They lied when they took the oath required for their job. They now expect to be treated sympathetically.

Now, this is a non-story; Musk himself noted on X that the staffers were "Dem political holdovers” that "would have been fired had they not resigned,” and the rest of the letter seems to bear that out.

A non-story indeed. But the media seeks anything to divide and to make the American People turn away from Trump (and they first need to put some daylight between Trump and Musk.) So they take some disgruntled Obamabots/Bidenbots and build an attack story around them.

Pruning away dead wood is precisely what DOGE is intended to do; it's a good thing if they prune their own department, no?

Racial InsurrectionistsSueing the Department of Education

Timothy Birdnow

The American Federation of Teachers and the American Scatological, er, Sociological Association are suing the Depatment of Education over a letter it sent to school districts threatening to withhold funding if they continued to promote DEI. Their argument? It violates the First Amendment (the right to free speech) and the fifty (the right to not self-incriminate and to due process). Only a leftist would try to use these in so creative a fashion.

The stronger case is the First Amendment, which states Congress shall make no law "abridging the freedom of speech". But nobody is abridging anyone's freedom of speech - just saying they won't be paid by taxpayers to promote a radical ideology. These teachers are free to talk about DEI all they want on their own time. But they are employees of the schools where they teach, and as employees they cannot teach what they please. That has always been the case.

If they can teach DEI why can't a Christian teacher teach religion in their classes? They can't and the Left would melt down if they tried, but it's fine for them to teach THEIR religion in schools. Then it's suddently a matter of free speech.

There are all sorts of abridgements of free speech in education. You can't teach the Earth is flat. You can't teach kids that the Nazis were the good guys and racism was a wonderful thing. You can't teach kids to snort cocaine. You can't teach kids to break the law.

And you cannot demand taxpayer money for promoting your own views; there are standards and if you break those standards you should expect to lose your job. These folks are telling us they intend to do as they please and we have to pay them to insult us.

The argument based on the Fifth Amendment is utterly laughable; how is this "incriminating themselves"? I suppose their argument is this is a violation of due process, but it's not; it's not a legal matter at all, but an amployment matter. Nobody is being charged with a crime - just not being funded for violating a policy set down by the DOE.

Was it a due process crime when Ronald Reagan fired PATCO? Was it a due process violation when Clinton fired the U.S. attnorneys, or when he sacked the travel office? Was due process violaed when Barack Hussein Obama fired the military top brass? What about all these other firings of Federal workers by Obama? No because he had every right to fire government employees. This isn't even about firing, just not giving funds to insurrectionist educrats.

The sad thing is they no doubt chose the court they will appeal to carefully and will probably win the first round or two. That's how the Left rolls. And the courts are still utterly corrupted.

The litigants claim the policy is over-broad and vague, but how is that so? We know exactly what DEI entails and what they are promoting. Schools are not forums for radicalization and if that is what they want to be they can stop taking public funding.

Craig Trainor, acting head of civil rights in the DOE, defined it simply enough:

"At its core, the test is simple: If an educational institution treats a person of one race differently than it treats another person because of that person’s race, the educational institution violates the law,”

Now how hard was that?

The plaintiffs argued the letter "radically upends and re-writes otherwise well-established jurisprudence,” yet cites no specific examples. I can think of a few well-established jurisprudences DEI upends - like Title VI of the Civil Rigth Act of 1964. That states:

"No person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance."

What is so hard for these dopes to understand? All that the acting director is doing is enforcing this provision of the law.

The radical Left is furious because they use these laws to their advantage and don't like having to obey them when they are not so advantageous.

Hopefully the DOE will win in the trial but probably not. Not only is common sense gone but so is fairness and the Rule of Law.

They Made the Girl Tranny and there is Nothing the Parent's Can Do

Timothy Birdnow

This is why we need to start impeaching judges. Shoot; in times gone-by this court would have had angry villagers with torches and ptchforks coming for them!

From the Blaze:

The U.S. First Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a previous ruling from 2022 by U.S. District Judge Mark G. Mastroianni and dismissed the appeal filed by parents of a student at Ludlow Public Schools in Massachusetts.

The school argued that their gender protocols were appropriate in order to 'ensure a safe and inclusive school learning environment for students.'

Stephen Foote and Marissa Silvestri filed the lawsuit against the Ludlow school and several officials after the school encouraged their daughter to use new pronouns and a new name without their consent, as previously reported by Blaze News.

The parents had been informed by school officials in Dec. 2022 that their daughter had expressed feelings of depression and poor self-image as well as same-sex attraction. The parents thanked the officials and sought therapy for their daughter.

The parents also emailed teachers to request that they not discuss the matter further with their daughter, but the lawsuit claims that teachers ignored their directive and used her changed name while counseling her on gender change. After the girl emailed teachers requesting they use new pronouns for her, school officials refused to inform the parents and also prevented them from directing the mental health of their daughter.

The decision was based on Ludlow schools following an order issued in 2012 by the state's Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to avoid discrimination on the basis of gender.

PARENTS, not school administrators, not teachers, not judges, have the final word on how their children are to be medically treated and how they are to be educated. This ruling should have been a no-brainer but apparently the judge had less than no brain. Is it possible to have a negative brain?

And you don't let children make life-altering decisions for themselves; they do not know enough and they do not understand some decisions are irrevocable, and they do not understand how much more of life they are facing. As Andy Griffith said, kids will grab the fist shiny thing that comes there way and when they realize there's a hook in it it's too late.

This girl unquestionably came to believe she was transgendered because teachers were telling her she was - and she wanted to please her teachers. It made her feel special, gave her status. She doesn't realize she's throwing away her childhood, that she will never get those years back (and the other kids will never accept her as a boy). Thes education bastards have destroyed this poor girl's life. And the parents lives too.

These teachers and educators will have to answer to God for this,and His judgment will not be easy on them.

A boycott needs to be organized, and picket lines set up in front of this school. The teachers and administrators in question need tobe called out publicly. So should the Fifth Circuit and this Judge Mark G. Mastroianni who made the initial ruling. I hope MAGA legislators are looking into impeaching these clowns and perhaps defunding this school and the district.

Until there is punishment for this sort of radical revolutionary behavior and abuse of children it will continue.

The Language Gene

Timothy Birdnow

Fascinating; new research suggests that humanity's language may be in our genes.

From the Tech Science Daily article:

"The origins of human language remain mysterious. Are we the only animals truly capable of complex speech? Were Homo sapiens the only hominids who could give detailed directions to a distant freshwater source or describe the nuanced purples and reds of a dramatic sunset?

Close relatives such as the Neanderthals likely possessed anatomical features in the throat and ears that could have enabled them to speak and hear spoken language. They also share with us a variant of a gene linked to speech ability. Yet, only in modern humans do we find expanded brain regions critical for language production and comprehension.

Now researchers from The Rockefeller University have unearthed intriguing genetic evidence: a protein variant found only in humans that may have helped shape the emergence of spoken language.

In a study published in Nature Communications, researchers in the lab of Rockefeller researcher Robert B. Darnell discovered that when they put this exclusively human variant of NOVA1—an RNA-binding protein in the brain known to be crucial to neural development—into mice, it altered their vocalizations as they called to each other.

The study also confirmed that the variant is not found in either Neanderthals or Denisovans, archaic humans that our ancestors interbred with, as is evidenced by their genetic traces that remain in many human genomes today.

I'm intrigued by language; it seems to have stimulated our evolution, and our culture, and it seems that our improvement in culture and technology spurred the devolopment of our language as well. It was a kind of bootstrapping process.

Human beings have Brocca's Region, a rather large lobe in the left hemispheres of our brains. No other animals have that. Brocca's Region is the seat of language (although language appears to inhabit other areas as well. Why did Brocca's Region develop?

But it's not really that simple; animals can and do communicate, and sometimes quite sophisticatedly. I saw a documentary about chipmunks; they had very complex vocalizations and we were able to decode some of it (most of which was too high for us to hear) and it was obvious they had a rather complex linguistic pattern and could impart some information. There appeared to been a specific word for human and words for colors as well.

Does that mean Chipmunks speak as do we? No; undoubtedly their language had nouns and adjectives but lacked the flexibility to get across complex ideas.

Which is why human beings can exist in past and present and can predict the future to a limited degree; we can pass on what we learned.

I had a brilliant cat not so long ago. I often called him the Albert Einstein of cats because he was so smart; he could figure out what things did and how they operated. He figured out how the toilet flushed and took to flushing it to amuse himself; he was fascinated at how it worked (I had left the lid off and he would flush it and watch the water go down.) He would try to operate the door handles but couldn't without thumbs, but he knew how they worked. I tried to harness train him so I could take him out; the harness was supposedly animal proof, with clamps that had to be grabbed from both sides to open. He went under a bush and was free in a matter of minutes. Brillian animal.

And he clearly understood much of what we said. I could tell him "we're going in in fifteen minutes" and he would come up to the door in fifteen minutes. If I just went and got him he's be angry. I could tell him to get my wife out of bed and he'd do it. He would often move his mouth and it was clear he was trying to speak. He could communicate with us in a lot of ways though.

We know chimps and gorillas learn sign languge, too. So there is undoubtedly much more communication in the animal kingdom than we give them credit for, but they still can't think in the abstract way we do.Human speech (and the thinking that comes from it) is a whole order of magnitude above the animals.

Civilization was born of human speech, no question. So this isn't an idle question for academics.

And it's no idle question for modern civilization. Our ability to speak is degrading thanks to terrible education, and the younger generation has been steadily declining in it's ability to elucidate thoughts or even think them. That is the failure of modern education to teach kids to speak properly and read.

Computers have led to the young not reading, and when they do they just read snippets, and this failure to develop the speech centers of their brains has ramifications for the long-term survival of our species. We seem to be devolving back to the Neanderthal/Denisovian era, with speech being entirely direct and unsophisticated.

At any rate I find this discovery of a gene to be an interesting development. The more we understand language the more we understand the human mind.

Judge Blocks Trump Freeze

Timothy Birdnow

A Biden-appointed social justice warrior judge has issued a restraining order to stop Trump's Federal aid freeze.

Until there are real-world consequences for this these activist judges will keep pulling this nonsense.

There is no fundamental right to free stuff and the President has authority to not hand out goodies. It's not that complicated; taxpayer money does not belong to people who come hat-in-hand demanding it.

Willis: "Stop Bullying Me!"

Timothy Birdnow

Cry me a river Fani!

Stop 'Bullying' Me! It's Black History Month

Yes, Fani Willis is actually accusing Jim Jordan of "bullying" her. She was the biggest bully of all, bringing bogus charges against Donald Trump for political gain.

Sorry but it doesn't matter what month it is; if it's Christmas Day you still have to answer for your actions. Willis has likely broken the law in a number of ways and now she wants to worm her way out of it with accusations of racism and bullying. It no doubt always worked for her in the past.

Willis said:

"Rather than honor and uphold the oath you took, you have chosen to expend your time attempting to bully me, which is a complete waste of your time,"

Cryme a river FAni; you brought it all on yourself by not doing your job and by bending the rules when it suited you. Your letter - and your very existence - is a complete waste of our time.

Mexican President Plays chicken with Trump

Timothy Birdnow

Two people were killed in South Texas from improvised explosive devices (IED's) set by the drug cartels in reprisal for the military crackdown on the border.

So the Cartels are going to go all Hamas on us, eh? You'd think they would have gotten the message from watching what Netenyahu did to Hamas but apparently not. They have declared war on us.

Donald Trump isn't going to play the "whack-a-Mole" game with them (like Biden or prior Presidents did with terrorists); he's going to go into Mexico after them. The Cartels are signing their death warrants.

The Texas Attorney General's Office put out the following statement:

And how is Mexico responding? The Al Dente' El Presidente' is trying to change the Mexican law so as to protect the Cartels.

From the Politico story:

MEXICO CITY — Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum said Thursday she will propose constitutional reforms aimed at protecting Mexico’s sovereignty after U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration designated six Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.

The U.S. designations have stirred worry in Mexico that it could be a preliminary step toward U.S. military intervention on Mexican territory in pursuit of the cartels, something Mexico sharply rejects.

"The Mexican people will not accept under any circumstances interventions, interference or any other act from abroad that could be harmful to the integrity, independence and sovereignty of the nation,” Sheinbaum said.

On Thursday, the designation of eight Latin America-based criminal organizations was published in the U.S. Federal Register, carrying out a Jan. 20 executive order by Trump. The U.S. hopes the designation, something usually reserved for terrorist groups with political rather than economic objectives, will increase pressure on the groups.

Sheinbaum said during her daily press briefing Thursday that Mexico also wouldn’t allow outside involvement in investigations or prosecutions without authorization and collaboration of the Mexican government.

Does Scheinbaum REALLY want to play chicken with Donald Trump?

Trump can hurt Mexico eight ways from Sunday. Mexico owes us billions of dollars in borrowed debt; we can call the loan in any time we please. (And in the crazy world the liberals built we owe MEXICO money they lent us on OUR debt - essentially we are borrowing from ourselves - but nowhere near as much as they owe us.) We also have given them huge amounts of foreign aid through USAID, which is now being cut off (no doubt part of why Scheinbaum is pulling this now.) With ramping up American oil production we can take all of Pemex customers (the governement-owned Mexican oil company.) Much of what we buy from Mexico can be obtained elsewhere. Here are the top exports to the U.S.:

Iron and steel

$5.58B

Pearls, precious stones, metals, coins

$5.46B

Railway, tramway locomotives, rolling stock, equipment
$4.12B

Rubbers
$3.79B

By rubbers I assume they mean rubber products and not condoms, although given the way they have screwd us over the years condoms would be appropriate. You will note that none of this stuff cannot be acquired elsewhere - even made here. Do we really need coins, or farm equipment made in Mexico? And we have plenty of iron to make steel here; we just closed the foundaries and bought from abroad.

The point is they need us and they can be made to damned well understand that fact. Trump won't let them just flip us the bird in this fashion.

Canadians Want a NATO to Contain the U>S.

Timothy Birdnow

So Canadian Leftists want to establish a coalition of nuclear powers to "conttain" the Trump-led United States, and in their debate over who would lead them discussed how to "outwit' Trump (these half-wits couldn't outwit a maple tree if the tree spotted them ten points.)

Conservative Treehouse has the 411:

Canada’s top-four Moonbats held a debate to decide which of the leaders of the Snow Mexicans will take control of the party now that Justin Trudeau is leaving. Chryistia "take your bank account” Freeland is the top contender.

For the Snow Mexicans, the #1 priority is fighting U.S President Donald Trump. No other issue had anywhere near the level of importance or time during the debate. Every facet of the leadership debate centers around how to confront, attack, and "outwit” President Trump.

When you listen to four professional Canadian leftists explain how they will control the Canadian government and what their plans are for the future, you realize just how lost the nation of Canada has become. To wit, hearing Chrystia Freeland explain how she will bring together a nuclear armed international alliance to fight President Trump, is really something special. Here’s a few soundbites:

Has Chrystia Freeland lost her f’ing mind?!?

"The US is turning predator, and so what Canada needs to do is work closely with our democratic allies, our military allies.
I would start with our Nordic partners, specifically Denmark who is also being threatened, and our NATO… pic.twitter.com/D02tGiiYLX

THAT is the level of thinking we are seeing out of the Left these days; they've completely lost their marbles.

Oh, and apparently these sufferers of numbskulliosis don't know that Denmark is not a nuclear power, nor any Baltic country. Oh, and Denmark does't own Greenland; it's a protectorate, an autonomous entity under the protection of the Danes. If the Greenlanders want to leave the Danish Kimgdom and be annexed by the U.S. there is nothing the Danes can do to stop them.

Canada doesn't have nuclear weapons either. And even if they could make them (which is possible but not at the levels they would need) they would be facing off against a country immediately south of their very long border (5,525 mileslong).

It's fun watching leftist heads explode. Sadly there is a real chance these morons will wind up in some positions of authority in the Dominion.

Comey's Honeypot

Timothy Birdnow

Kash Patel is opening an investigation into former Director James Comey, whom he believes was guilty of setting a "honey pot" trap for Donald Trump.

Redstate dishes:

The FBI has now reportedly opened an investigation into a "honey pot” operation that was launched against Donald Trump in 2015. According to the Washington Times, a whistleblower revealed to the House Judiciary Committee in a protected disclosure that this was an "off-the-books” action run by then-FBI Director James Comey.

According to the whistleblower, two female FBI undercover employees infiltrated Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign at high levels and were directed to act as "honeypots” while traveling with Mr. Trump and his campaign staff.

The Patel-led FBI is now looking for the two women undercover operatives.

This was not part of Crossfire Hurricane, this was reportedly a different operation.

The whistleblower agent "personally knew” that Mr. Comey ordered an FBI investigation into Mr. Trump and that Mr. Comey "personally directed it,” according to the disclosure.

The investigation did not appear to target a specific crime but was more of what agents would describe as a fishing expedition to find anything incriminating that could be used against Mr. Trump.

The whistleblower said the undercover operation was obscured from Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz, who investigated misconduct in the bureau’s probe of the Trump campaign.

"The case had no predicated foundation, so Comey personally directed the investigation without creating an official case file in Sentinel or any other FBI system,” according to the whistleblower’s disclosure.

Oh, my, that sounds like it opens up a whole lot of questions.

According to the Times, one media outlet had a picture of one of the women, but then the FBI told them it was an FBI informant who would be killed if they published the picture. That’s pretty vile and manipulative, if true. The operation was shut down after this.

Now, according to the report, one of the people is at the CIA (yikes) and the other got a promotion is now a "high-level FBI executive in a major field office.”

The whistleblower also revealed that FBI employees were warned against talking about this operation with anyone, which the whistleblower took as a threat.

It sounds like finally, we’re going to start seeing some accountability. It can’t be too hard to find the two people, given the information that they have on their present positions. They likely have a lot of information to offer on the matter. If it is true that there was no predicate for launching the operation, that’s potentially problematic, particularly when it involves a presidential campaign.

Comey was very concerned about Trump winning in 2024, as he urged people to get out and voted for Biden (before Biden dropped out).

We all suspected this to be true. Certainly Crossfire Hurricane appeared to be aimed at taking Trump out of the running, and we know Peter Strzok and Lisa Page openly discussed Trump and Strzok assured her "we won't let that happen" meaning Trump get elected. And we know Comey was always a manipulative little punk.

People need to go to jail over this - and the American People need to know exactly what our government has been doing behind closed doors.

The trouble with being a cockroach and hiding in dark, damp basements is eventually the house will get torn down and you will be exposed for all to see.
