Poison Pill?
Timothy Birdnow
Did the Senate purposely put a poison pill(s) in the One Big Beautiful Bill (OB cubed)? Some thinks so.
Senate SABOTAGED Trump's Bill TO KILL IT, Poison Pill May FORCE GOP To BLOCK It Over New Gaming Tax
There are a number of really bad things injected by the Senate into this. It's almost as if they want to bring it down.
(Don't be surprised; theRINO wing of the party controls the Senate and I assure you they will do what they can to stop Trump by any means necessary.)

The Heart of the Minnesota Democratic Party
Timothy Birdnow
Well, this guy pretty much is the base of the Democratic Party these days, isn't he?
Tim Walz’s Education Department Hired Convicted Sex Offender From Kenya
(No, he's not talking about Barack Obama, who has never been convicted.)
Wilson Nduri Tindi came here on a B-2 visa in 2005 and overstayed, making him an illegal alien. He was convicted of rape in 2015, yet managed to rise to the level of division director of the Minnesota Department of Education.
And this was not a date rape, but a bonafide thing. He broke into the apartment and fondled the woman, attempting to pull her pants off.
He received two years in prison but in liberal Minnesota only served 210 days.
He had been accused in 2012 of a similar crime though the victim chose not to press charges.
And yet Tampon Tim's predecessor Mark Dayton hired this guy anyway in 2018.
This is what you get when you put the Demo-left in charge; Dayton too was a member of the Democratic Farm Labor party (the name of the Democrats in Minnesota).

Judge Ignores SCOTUS, Imposes Injunction on Trump Over Haitian Refugees
Timothy Birdnow
Didn't SCOTUS just say these clowns can't do this sort of thing?
Judge Blocks DHS From Terminating Temporary Protected Status for Haitian Immigrants
The Trump Administration should simply ignore this jerk. He's overstepping his authority in a willful manner.
District Court Judge Brian M. Cogan in New York issued the nation-wide injuncttion in spite of new rules put in place by the U.S. Supreme Court banning most nationwide injunctions. He says altering the TPS dates is illegal, even though it is solely an executive order put in place by Biden in the first place.
These radical judges are simply going to ignore the SCOTUS ruling and impose these things anyway, apparently. Judge Cogan should be charged with contept of court.
The judge stated in his 23 page opinion (Why does he need 23 pages when this is cut-and-dried?):
But these are not citizens and this is not a "benefit" but rather a kindness extended by the goodness of our hearts to these people, who have no reason to expect anything more of us. Beggars can't be choosers. We've given them protections but nobody said anything about their staying here permanently. That was never part of the deal.
The article continues:
Oh boo hoo! They had no reason to expect to be able to do this; they have been living in America and knew Trump was serious about deporting aliens. Putting down roots in society is nothing but a scam for many of them. You always hear that in court with criminals "he is a member of the community with a job and a kid in school". And it's wide of the point anyway as this judge is merely trying to tug at everyone's heart strings while ignoring the Americans who have suffered under this invasion of Haitians over the years. Where is his compassion for the Americans stabbed to death bya Haitian immigrant in Fayetteville, North Carolina, for instance? Or for Aiden Clark, the 11 year old boy murdered by a haitian? Odd how he bursts with compassion for the Haitians but not their victims.
Nor does he show compasion for taxpayers who are underwriting these jobs and schools and medical care. Who is representing THEIR interests?
This suit was filed by the Service Employees International Union Local 32BJ. How do they have standing? They only have standing because this judge is a fellow traveller and they both want to screw the Trump Administration.
SCOTUS has previously ruled that Trump may indeed strip TPS status from groups and deport them. This judge does not have a leg to stand on - especially since the Court has ruled these lower courts lack the authority to impose nationwide injunctions of this nature.
Somebody really needs to put a bag full of dog poop on this guy's front porch and light it on fire. That's all he's worth.

FBI Covered for Wray over Chicoms
Timothy Birdnow
I believe the FBI is unreformable and needs to die.
Docs Reveal FBI Interfered With Investigation On Chinese Meddling In 2020 To Cover For Christopher Wray
Wray completely flipped after assuming the post of Directtor of the FBI. I wonder; did they have material they were using to blackmail him? I think it entirelyp ossible. Wray went from hero to zero in record time, immediately biting the hand of his boss.

Ahearsa - Hindus Attack Christians
Timothy Birdnow
This is unusual; Hindus are generally peaceable folk.
Over 30 Christians injured in attack by Hindu nationalists wielding axes
Hindus descended on a large prayer meeting wielding axes in a shocking imitation of their Muslim neighbors.
From the Christian Post:
The local police claim the violence stemmed from a personal dispute between two brothers, one Christian and one Hindu, but the Christians involved dispute this claim. They argue:
I don't know but attacking unarmed, harmless folks engaged in prayer is not exactly good for your Karma and probably will result in your being born a dog bred for dog fighting or something.
The police version is just silly; why would so many join with this guy and use axes to attack people they didn't know over a personal dispute?
Hindus don't like Christians. They fear we are trying to impose our culture and values on them. Mother Theresa of Calcutta - who was beloved in India - faced considerable resistance early in her ministry, and only became beloved when she didn't try to preach any Christianity but simply showed God's love to the destitute and dying (her ministry was primarily to take in dying people so they could perish with some dignity rather on the streets, where their bodies were often just left to rot.)
I hate to hear this because I generally have a good amount of respect for Hindus. I am convinced they are wrong, but they can make a good case and they believe it.
Most Hindus practice ahimsa, which says one should be kind to all other living beings. I suppose these guys are practicing Ahearsa, as they believe in butchering other living beings. (A hearse is a hearse of curse of curse...)
Actually they may be followers of Shiva and less so Brahma.
At any rate it's a terrible thing. Why go after Christians when they are natural allies against the Muslims who are always attacking Indians? Foolish.

Over 30 Christians injured in attack by Hindu nationalists wielding axes
Hindus descended on a large prayer meeting wielding axes in a shocking imitation of their Muslim neighbors.
From the Christian Post:
More than 30 Christians were injured when a mob attacked a prayer gathering in India’s Odisha state, and local residents say no arrests have been made nearly two weeks after the incident.
At least 20 people suffered serious injuries and were hospitalized following the assault, which local leaders alleged was carried out by Hindu nationalist groups.
The attack took place in Kotamateru village of Malkangiri district on June 21, when around 20 farming Christian families had assembled to bless seeds before the planting season. Nearly 400 people from nearby villages stormed the area with weapons, including axes, and began what appeared to be a coordinated assault, according to the rights group Christian Solidarity International.

orchestrated the attack. Bajrang Dal district leader Sibapada Mirdha
denied any involvement but said there was growing resistance among
Hindus to what they saw as religious conversions by Christians. He
added that "sometimes there is a spontaneous reaction to this,”
according to the Telegraph.

Trurmp: Prosecute Myorkas
Timothy Birdnow
Donald Trump suggested in his remarks at the newly-opened Alligator Alcatraz that former DHS head Allejandro Myorkas should be arrested and perhaps made an inmate at the facility.
Of course the media is melting down over this, but the fact remains Myorkas was guilty of not only dereliction of duty but has caused untold damage to our country and way of life; he simply refused to take the most basic actions with which he was charged. In fact he was impeached for it but Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer refused to allow a trial. (This article mistakenly says the U.S. Senate acquitted him - the fact is there never was a trial. The senate simply dismissed the charges without a public trial, because if he had been tried what the Biden policies had led to would have shocked and horrified the American People. They simply killed it quietly.)
Joe Biden didn't give Myorkas a pre-emptive pardon.
So I'm all for any sort of legal charges that can justifiably be brought against Myorkas. He has much to answer for - and the American People need to learn just how bad it was.

CBS Settles with Trump
Timothy Birdnow
Trump wins a big setttlement from Paramount and CBS.
Part of the agreement is supposedly they donate to conservative causes, as well as impose the "Trump rule" which says they must release transcripts and other information in their entirety.
The suit stems from selective editing of an interview with Kamala Harris before the election.
Of course the media has selectively edited multiple statements by Donald Trump over the years to make him look bad. For example, there is the infamous "good Nazis" claim made based on selective editing of Trump's press conference after the riot over Confederat monuments in Charlottesville, Va. Trump specifically condemned white supremacism in his preamble, then said there were good people on both sides - meaning pro-and-con honoring Confederates. The whole rally was to register disapproval of plans to remove long-standing statues of Confederates. But the media cut all but "good people on both sides" then pretended to believe he was saying there were good Nazis and Klansmen, completely ignoring what he actually said. BTW the Wikipedia entry for Charlottesville Unite the Right Rally calls it a "white supremacist rally" which it was not. Of course that lie is at the top of a Google search.
That's how the Left twists and manipulates the news and how the public perceives things; they lie by omission as much as by, uh, mission.
There are pllenty of other examples involving Donald Trump and I can't go through all of them here. His call to the Ukrainian President (for which he was impeached) is another example. If you read the transscript you see there was never a quid-pro-quo offererd, and Trump was simply pushing them to honor their agreement with the U.S. to go after corruption. There are many others.
Omitting details, coloring the facts, etc. is the media's bread and butter and it has worked for decades. How many people knew Barack Obama was in the Communist New Party in Chicago? How many knew he went to Occidental University on a scholarship provided by the U.S. taxpayers - as a foreign exchange student? How many know he has a Connecticut social security number? How many even know what a "community organizer" is or that he worked for ACORN, a now-defunct vote fraud operation? How many know his wife had a very high paying job at a hospital, a no-show job? All of these things were simply not reported. This goes way back too; Franklyn Roosevelt was in a wheelchair and nobody knew it because the American media simply refused to tell the public since they supported him.
At any rate Trump is going to put some of the $30 million towards legal fees and then use the rest for his Presidential library as well as donate it to conservative causes.
God bless him; he's the first guy we've had since Reagan who is willing to fight back against these clowns (and Reagan still avoided tangling with the media). If everyone would do this the media would have no choice but report fairly. But of course most people don't have the resources to fight the media.

Microbiological Coup
Timothy Birdnow
Now why do you suppose they did that?
NIH Funded Hundreds of Genetically Engineered COVID Variants
Naturally a Google search came up with nothing on this.
There was no good reason to breed multiple strains. The only reason was to keep the pandemic and the fear going. It was a microbiolgical coup against Trump and America.
Increasingly it looks like our own government has been waging war against the American People.

Elon Musk - the Ross Perot of the '20's
Timothy Birdnow
Anybody remember Ross Perot? He is the guy single-handedly responsible for two terms of Bill Clinton (who started most of the radicalization of the U.S. although he was moderate in some ways.)
Musk Vows to Take On MAGA, Dems With 3rd Party
All Musk's party can do is be a spoiler, drawing votes from the GOP at a time when we absolutely cannot afford any cracks in our unity.
I get it; Musk isn't happy with all the spending. I'm nott either. But we've made a start and anyone who has half a brain had to know we weren't going to make these really major cuts yet - the margins in the House and Senate are way too thin. Even if they were not we have a lot of stuff we MUST fund - kicking illegal aliens out of the country, rebuilding our military, restructuring our economy. All of that is going to cost up-front capital. Must should understand that.
Musk seems to believe that the cuts to the budget are the important part, but cuts without economic growth will only lead to a shrinking economy and political failure. Trump is all about growing our way out of the mud - something that we didn during the Clinton era, and even the Reagan era to a lesser degree.
As the Bible says "despise not that which begins small" Zechariah 4:10 . Jesus also said the Kingdom of Heaven is like a mustard seed, a very tiny thing at the beginning which grows into a very large plant. Musk apparently never read his Bible.
At any rate I too want to see major cuts, but we have to be practical. The only cut Musk will make with this third party nonsense is to his nose, which will be entirely amputated to punish his face.
I once read a very interesting essay about Dicken's A Christmas Carol. In it the author argued that Ebenezer Scrooge's problem was he was raised under the old Mercantilist system and there was scarcity. The end result was Scrooge didn't look at wealth as something that can be created but rather as something to be saved, squirreled away. He gave nothing away because it was, in his mind, a zero-sum game. He had it and didn't want to lose it to some undeserving person. It never occurred to him that he could make more - and a lot more.
That's why the first thing the Ghost of Christmas Present did was take Scrooge to the markets and to the docks; he wanted Scrooge to see the immense bounty of goods and the wonderful nature of commerce. Scrooge had never really LOOKED at it before! GOC Present wanted Scrooge to understand that wealth is more than money; he didn't get that.
Musk doesn't get that. He thinks wealth and money are the same thing, and he is angry Trump hasn't cut more money from the budget. He fails to understand that a great deal of that excess money will be covered as economic growth brings in a huge bounty of wealth to pay off the debts.
Don't get me wrong; I like much of what Musk has done. He's the little boy telling the Emperor he's naked. But there is very little value in what he is doing right now. A third party would only waste his money and would hand the Democrats power yet again. THEY are the true enemy, not MAGA. If the GOP is spending too much money how much more will the Democrats spend?
For some reason he's blind to this.
We are at a moment of great decision in the U.S. - continue as a constitutional republic where the citizenry are free or turn into a European-style socialist state. Until Trump everything was moving towards the latter. What exactly is there to be proud of, to desire, in becoming Europe? I see little benefit, but many want that and that's what we could easily get if we continue down this road. Musk will facilitate that, even if unintentionally.
Again, remember the Little General, Ross Perot. Had Perot stayed out of two races this country would look very different, and in my opinion much better. Perot actually had a lot of good ideas, but he hated the Bush family (rightly, as it turns out) and preferred to put the Democrats in power than to choke it down and let Bush win (or Bob Dole). His pride and his obstinacy cost America.
Nobody remembers Ross Perot. That will be Elon's fate if he continues down this road. And America will fall.

The end result was Scrooge didn't look at wealth as something that can be created but rather as something to be saved, squirreled away. He gave nothing away because it was, in his mind, a zero-sum game. He had it and didn't want to lose it to some undeserving person. It never occurred to him that he could make more - and a lot more.
That's why the first thing the Ghost of Christmas Present did was take Scrooge to the markets and to the docks; he wanted Scrooge to see the immense bounty of goods and the wonderful nature of commerce. Scrooge had never really LOOKED at it before! GOC Present wanted Scrooge to understand that wealth is more than money; he didn't get that.
Musk doesn't get that. He thinks wealth and money are the same thing, and he is angry Trump hasn't cut more money from the budget. He fails to understand that a great deal of that excess money will be covered as economic growth brings in a huge bounty of wealth to pay off the debts.
Don't get me wrong; I like much of what Musk has done. He's the little boy telling the Emperor he's naked. But there is very little value in what he is doing right now. A third party would only waste his money and would hand the Democrats power yet again. THEY are the true enemy, not MAGA. If the GOP is spending too much money how much more will the Democrats spend?
For some reason he's blind to this.
We are at a moment of great decision in the U.S. - continue as a constitutional republic where the citizenry are free or turn into a European-style socialist state. Until Trump everything was moving towards the latter. What exactly is there to be proud of, to desire, in becoming Europe? I see little benefit, but many want that and that's what we could easily get if we continue down this road. Musk will facilitate that, even if unintentionally.
Again, remember the Little General, Ross Perot. Had Perot stayed out of two races this country would look very different, and in my opinion much better. Perot actually had a lot of good ideas, but he hated the Bush family (rightly, as it turns out) and preferred to put the Democrats in power than to choke it down and let Bush win (or Bob Dole). His pride and his obstinacy cost America.
Nobody remembers Ross Perot. That will be Elon's fate if he continues down this road. And America will fall.

Mamdani is a Marxist
Timothy Birdnow
Zorhan Mamdani wanted pure communism.
Seize the means of production
Forcibly seizing the means of production is not just democratic socialism (where the government owns or controls the means of production) but more naturally fits with Bolshevism (the dictatorship of the Proletariat).
In a party full of crazies this guy is perhaps the craziest of them all.
Of course these schemes have never worked, but try telling him - or the media - that.
Sorehand Mamdani may say he's a "democratic socialistt" but his words speak for themselves.
Zorhan Mamdani wanted pure communism.
Seize the means of production
Speaking in 2021 at the Young Democratic Socialists of America Organizing Conference, Mamdani said his goal is to "continue to elect more socialists” and to be "unapologetic about our socialism.”
He followed that with two key objectives: boycotting Israel and "seizing the means of production.

Boys Will Be Boys
Timothy Birdnow
I mean, who doesn't rape or sexually abuse little girls when the thermometer is above ninety degrees and you are in a swimming pool?
9 Underage Girls Sexually Abused By Syrians At Swimming Pool, Mayor Points To 'Hot Weather'
Strange; "boys will be boys" was supposedly so bad when white feminists were upset with guys oogling them (not like THAT happened much with those hairy-legged shrews). Yet this is the excuse being made now, and only because these are Middle Easternern Muslims.
If we are going to excuse bad behavior because of culture, why do we not excuse Klansmen, or Nazis, or meth cookers? Isn't THAT part of THEIR culture?

Russian Mass Invasion
Timothy Birdnow
Russia has deployed 50,000 troops near the town of Sumy, just a few dozen miles from Donetsk.
The Russian strategy of war by attrition has seen a sytematic nibbling away at the Ukrainians position since the beginning of the year, having expelled the Ukrainians who invaded Russian territory.
Tthe Russians outnumber the Ukrainians 3 to 1 in most battles, plus have more weapons on any given field.
One Ukrainian commander said this:
We know what happens when you outnumber the enemy and can absorb casualties; the enemy loses. Stalin used this same tactic during WWII. During the American Civil War the Union used this tactic, with Lincoln demanding long casualty lists. He kept firing generals who weren't willing to see a bloodbath. Eventually he got Grant and Sherman. Grant at least demanded daily casualty lists. He understood attrition. The Japanese lost in WWII to Americans because, while better fighters than the American G.I.'s, there just weren't enough of them.
So the Russian strategy is sound. Russia has the manpower. Russia also has the raw resources - oil, gas, food, etc. Tthe Ukrainians just can't replace what they lose; their only hope is for outside intervention, an intervention that isn't going to come because despite their sabre rattling the Europeans won't dare muss a hair on the heads of their own. They want the U.S. to do it but we have no national interest and if we did we dare not risk nuclear war.
Eventually Ukraine will fall. Eventually her people will become so exhausted they beg for peace. Eventually this bloodbath will end.
It's too bad; it could have been ended diplomatically long ago. Now everyone is hardened and they refuse to negotiate peace. If Biden had been any sort of leader he would have prevented this from happening.
Now it's going to have to grind it's way to a final, unhappy conclusion.

How to Circumvent the SCOTUS Ruling
Timothy Birdnow
They are already plotting ways around the Supreme Court's ruling against nationwide injunctions.
3 Ways Judicial Insurrection May Circumvent the Supreme Court Ruoing Againstt Nationwide Injunctions
Here's one way; they are going to bring class action suits by all the illegal aliens (in compliance with SCOTUS' decision) which would keep them in the country as the legal battle plays out (over years, no doubt).
Amy Conehead Barrett, who wrote the majority opinion on the Court ruling left wiggle room; a thirty day moratorium on deportations of illegal aliens who are pregnant. so naturally they are going to run with Barrett's stupidity. (How can Barrett legally justify this? She can't; she just decided it was a good thing to do.)
At any rate here is how they plot to circumvent the ruling in Trump v. CASA.
First, there is the matter of class actions. Sam Alito argued this overturns the whole ruling:
Don't think they won't find a judge to rule in their favor either.
Second there is this:
Again, Barrett has screwed us.
Then finally:
This judge should be impeached as this is a willful breaking of the law by this court. But of course the Senate will never muster the sixty votes needed to remove this clown from the bench. congress could simply dissolve this court - something never been tried before - but I suspect that would require cloture of a filibuster. So we are yet again at the tender mercies of the Democrats.
The best thing to do is simply tell these judges disobeying the Supreme Court to go to hell. How can anyone complain about the Administration not obeying a rogue judge when that judge isn't obeying his own superiors? But of course the Democrats will sure try to gin up outrage.
Any way you look at it they aren't going to let this tactic slip quietly into that good night.
Ano0ther thing we can do is go to a favorable court, challenge our own actions, and let a competing ruling be implemented. Of course they have stacked most of teh Federal judiciary. We have far fewer judges than do they.
At any rate this isn't over and we can largely thanks that silly Amy Coney Barrett.

First, there is the matter of class actions. Sam Alito argued this overturns the whole ruling:
"Putting the kibosh on universal injunctions does nothing to disrupt Rule 23’s requirements,” Justice Samuel Alito wrote in a concurring opinion.
He warned, however, that "district courts should not view today’s decision as an invitation to certify nationwide classes without scrupulous adherence to the rigors of Rule 23.”
If judges do so, Alito warned, "the universal injunction will return from the grave under the guise of ‘nationwide class relief,’ and today’s decision will be of little more than minor academic interest.

Don't think they won't find a judge to rule in their favor either.
Second there is this:
The Administrative Procedure Act of 1946 also provides a way for district court judges to block administration policies.
A footnote in Barrett’s ruling notes that "nothing we say today resolves the distinct question whether the Administrative Procedure Act authorizes federal courts to vacate federal agency action.”
Under 5 U.S. Code Section 706, a court reviewing federal agency action "shall … compel agency action unlawfully withheld or unreasonably delayed; and hold unlawful and set aside agency action, findings, and conclusions to be” in one way or another "not in accordance with law.”
The Supreme Court has not laid out clear precedent about the limits of courts’ ability to vacate agency action under the Administrative Procedure Act. If left-wing groups bring such lawsuits against the Trump administration, these cases may end up before the nation’s highest court.

Again, Barrett has screwed us.
Then finally:
District court judges may also flatly defy the Supreme Court’s clear ruling against nationwide injunctions. It sounds insane, but I frankly can’t rule it out because it has already happened.
Last week, Massachusetts-based District Judge Brian Murphy openly defied the court. He had issued a temporary injunction on April 18, blocking the Trump administration from deporting illegal aliens to South Sudan. He issued a follow-up order on May 21, clarifying and enforcing the injunction.
The Supreme Court struck down his April 18 order on June 23, but he issued another order that same day, stating that the May 21 order remained in effect.

Christmas All Year 'Round
Timothy Birdnow
.The important work our government does.
Male prostitutes and pastries: Your tax dollars at work
Did you get that about the U.S. funding voter i.d. in Haiti? We aren't allowed to have voter i.d. in the U.S. but it's fine for us to spend money to make sure Haiti's elections aren't stolen. And this has been going on since the Obama Administration. And Govtech had this to say about voter i.d.:
But I guess they only play a role in fostering democracy overseas - here in America they cause voter suppression. That's what the Democrats tell us anyway.
I guess we hate Haiti and want her to fail then?
.The important work our government does.
Male prostitutes and pastries: Your tax dollars at work
Under the guise of so-called preventative care within PEPFAR program [The President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief], Americans have been funding the following: $5.5 million to LGBTQ advocacy in Uganda, $800,000 for transgender people, sex workers, and their clients in Nepal; $3.6 [million] for LGBTQ activism, free training in pastry cooking, psychosocial counseling, a cyber cafe, and dance focus groups for male prostitutes in Haiti; $1.1 million to produce gender transformation in diverse social and behavior change report, which advocates against ‘gender blindness.’”
[...]
"Other examples of the type of spending proposed for rescissions are almost comically wasteful,” he continued. "For example, complex crisis funding money went to voter ID in Haiti; development assistance funding has been used for net zero cities in Mexico, electric buses in Rwanda, and cricket powder in Madagascar.”
"Global health money went to the International Planned Parenthood Foundation and UNFPA,” other funds "went to social media mentorship in Serbia and Belarus,” and "the Clean Technology Fund was used for wind farms in Ukraine,” he continued.

Secure, photo-based voter IDs play a critical role in countries around the world in fostering democratic elections.
But I guess they only play a role in fostering democracy overseas - here in America they cause voter suppression. That's what the Democrats tell us anyway.

Carney Caves
Timothy Birdnow
After promising to fight to the death Canada's boss hog has folded like an accordian and rescinded his Digital Services Tax after Trump went to the matttresses.
Maybe the dimwit is finally learning; you can't threaten someone bigger and badder than yourself, not if you want to walk away with all your teeth.
BTW What kind of Canadian is Carney anyway? He is impolite and argumentative. Sets a terrible example for the country that prides itself on being mild and bland.
