Another Blanket Injunction from a Democrat Judge Over Mail-in Voting
Timothy Birdnow
It's like a broken record with these judges! And they simply refuse to obey the Supreme Court ruling that they cannot impose nationwide blanket injunctions!
Federal judge blocks Trump administration from restricting mail-in ballots ahead of midterms
From the El Zoro News article:
U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani granted a preliminary injunction preventing the USPS from implementing or enforcing Section 3 of Executive Order 14399 for the Nov. 3 midterm elections, or any earlier federal election.
The ruling prevents USPS from refusing to transmit mail-in or absentee ballots under the challenged section and blocks rulemaking to implement certain regulations outlined in the executive order for the November elections.
The injunction does not prevent the federal government from providing nonbinding USPS guidance on ballot-mail envelopes.
Notice how she has a foreign name - one of many aliens given a judicial seat by the Biden camp, no doubt.
And notice how kind she was in the end, allowing the USPS to read "non-binding guidance from the government" which means exactly nothing as she has already banned any action taken against mail-in ballots.
Hopefully this will be overturned on appeal, but given the Left went judge-shopping and it's in Massachusetts it's going to have an uphill battle.
Question; is the U.S. Postal Service required to deliver all mail? It's not a Federal agency and in fact is a quasi-private organization wholly owned by the United States government. It does not draw money from general revenue - it has to ask if it's in trouble. So how can the courts compel the USPS to disobey Trump on this and think the individual states have a case? Let them run their own program to get mail-in ballots delivered. Maybe cut a deal with Fedex...
Of course Fedex would charge THEM more, and that is the whole point; they want the U.S. taxpayer to underwrite the theft of the election.
We MUST start punishing these lawless judges and rein them in.

Yellowcake in Syria: Proof Saddam Had it?
Timothy Birdnow
I remember when the U.S. invaded Iraq and there was clear evidence of convoys moving from Iraq to it's neighboring Baathist Party-controlled country of Syria. At the time many of us said they were moving nuclear material. The hapless Bush Administration did what Karl Rove always advised - just moved on instead of making an issue of it.
Well...
How, pray tell, did Syria get nuclear material in the first place?
The article states:
The secret nuclear program which had been developed under the Assad regime with the help of North Korean experts in the mid 2000s centered on the Al-Kibar reactor, which was mostly destroyed after Israel bombed it in 2007. However, several research-and-development and storage sites, mostly inactive, reportedly remained.
After the toppling of the Assad regime, the IAEA signed an agreement with the new Syrian government allowing it to visit the Al-Kibar reactor and several other sites connected to Syria’s prior nuclear activity.
One of the facilities Israel was closely monitoring over the past two years was called "Site 99.” According to two Israeli officials, the Assad regime stored nuclear material as part of the Al-Kibar nuclear reactor project.
Maybe they produced some of it on their own and maybe they got some of it from Iraq. Certainly the Syrians - close allies of Iraq - have now admitted to a clandestine nuclear weapons project. Why is it hard to believe the Hussein regime moved their nuclear stockpile into Syria?
Like many of us said all along.
We were told over and over that there was no nuclear material in Iraq and that "Bush lied and people died". But did he? This suggests he did not.
The program was inactive for many years; what does that tell us? The invasion of Iraq undoubtedly unnerved the Assad Regime in Syria, and they thought discretion the better part of valor.
You will note this says the program began in the mid 2000nds, just about the time Saddam Hussein would have moved his material to Syria as the U.S. was invading. It seems unlikely the Syrians would START a nuclear program after seeing what happened to Iraq at this moment in history. More likely they had a clandestine one going and then made a big leap forward when Iraq shipped them the material they needed.
Most of this material was yellowcake uranium. From Chad maybe? At any rate it was unprocessed. The article mentions the laughable "dirty bomb" scenario. Ridiculous and stupid. A "dirty bomb" is just an instrument of terror; it is no more radioactive than an x-ray even at ground zero. Less the farther away you are. The only value in a dirty bomb is to frighten ignorant people because, like, radiation and stuff!
Yellowcake is too valuable to waste on a dirty bomb. If you want one you should go dig up nuclear waste from containment sites.
At any rate I think this proves the claim Saddam Hussein had no yellowcake was probably a lie. But so much was back then.

Mamdani's Wife Wants NYC Cops on Mideast Vacation
Timothy Birdnow
All she wants to do is dance...
Mamdani's team said NYPD would accompany his wife on Middle East vacation — cops say that's not true
Makes me think of the lyrics of a song by Don Henley, formerly of the Eagles:
[Verse 1]
They're pickin' up the prisoners
And putting 'em in a pen
And all she wants to do is dance, dance
Rebels been rebels
Since I don't know when
And all she wants to do is dance
[Verse 2]
Molotov cocktail
The local drink
And all she wants to do is dance, dance
They mix 'em up right
In the kitchen sink
And all she wants to do is dance
[Verse 3]
Crazy people walkin' round
With blood in their eyes
And all she wants to do is dance, dance, dance
Wild-eyed pistol-wavers
Who ain't afraid to die
And all she wants to do is
All she wants to do is dance
[Chorus]
And make romance
She can't feel the heat
Comin off the street
She wants to party
She wants to get down
All she wants to do is
All she wants to do is dance
Here the song here.

State of Emergency for Election Day?
Still, it does offer food for thought. Root tells the President:
Timothy Birdnow
A national state of emergency on election night to force voters to present I.D.? I love it, even if it will start the hot phase of our civil war.
Of course there would be an immediate emergency injunction from some Biden court.
From X:
Trump won't do that but he'll have fun tweaking the Democrats with the possibility he will. Remember, they think he's the one who is power-mad and believe him capable of anything. So he plays them, gets them all worked up. And he laughs his orange backside off.Aaron Rupar
WAYNE ALLYN ROOT: You have the right to declare a national security emergency for elections. If you do this in the next month, we will get photo ID, proof of citizenship, and a limit to mail ballots
TRUMP: Let me just say stranger things have happened. I'll leave it at
Still, it does offer food for thought. Root tells the President:
Because it’s so hard to get the Senate to do anything— now they’re on recess; they don’t get anything done—if they never get the Save America Act done, you have the right to declare a national security emergency for elections. And the Supreme Court ruled in 1983 under Reagan, INS versus Chadha, that if you declare a national security emergency as the president of the United States, they can’t challenge it. It can only be overturned by a two-thirds vote of both houses of Congress. So if you do this in the next month, we will get photo ID, proof of citizenship and a limit to mail-in ballots.
It COULD be done but it would cause an explosion. Still, I would love for Trump to ram this down the throats of the Democrats and their RINO Republican allies.

Moonstruck
Timothy Birdnow
There is an old expression; if you want something done right do it yourself.
Here we go; Nasa is about to turn the Artemis project into another Charlie Foxtrot.
The original name of our space station was Freedom - until we took on international partners and it became the International Space Station (ISS) and it never really amounted to anything because we didn't have full control of it. It was a huge money pit in the sky and now Artemis will be the same.
For those who do not know Artemis is the name given to our plans to build a permanent base on the Moon, a base that could be expanded into a permanent colony.
What do the Indians have to bring to the table? Nothing except some funding; they do not have any experience with any of this. And it will take away control of this station from the United States. In the end we will wind up being "one of many" in just another Charlie Foxtrot.
The point is for US to learn how to live on the Moon, how to exploit lunar resources, obtain power, get water, etc. It is not and should not be a mini-U.N. where all sorts of nations are there and have veto power. We need to develop the Moon for the United States of America. This "for all Mankind" horsepoop sounds lovely but in the end the Chinese and Russians are not going to play that game. They will use the Moon for their national interests. We should too.
And there is nothing wrong with that. Space settlement isn't going to happen based on altruism and international cooperation. Like all things that happen it will be accomplished through money and profit and national interests competing to see who does a better job of settlement. It's how the Western Hemisphere was colonized, after all. Colonization happens anywhere either as a matter of refugees or to make money. Nobody has colonized Antarctica, for instance, except for some scientific stations there because there was no money to be made and nobody running from some oppressive regime or whatnot is going to go to such a place.
There is money to be had on old Luna. Helium III, for example. Unlimited sunlight for power. Hard vacuum for manufacturing. Ore processing for mining, not just lunar materials but for mining asteroids. I could go on and on but the point is made. The Chinese want to go there for this stuff, as do the Russians. They have no intention of joining us in Artemis.
So why do we want to bring the Indians in? There is no good reason.
Robert Zimmerman gives us a clue about why this is happening:
India is already a signatory to the Artemis Accords. This new offer I am sure was issued with NASA’s full cooperation. Coming however from the State Department it indicates a global political aspect beyond building a Moon base with international partners. The offer is probably aimed at driving a wedge between India’s increasing space partnership with Russia. In 2025 India agreed to build its Bharatiya Antariksh Station (BAS) in the same inclination as Russia’s proposed station, and work together on cross astronaut visits. This partnership offer is an attempt to pull India away from Russia and toward the U.S.
But again, so what? How is losing Indian space cooperation to the Russians any great loss to our national security? It's not. And India has long shown itself to not be our friend as a political entity. Why should we scrape and bow to them just to keep them from joining the Russians? I doubt Russia and India together could build such a base, frankly, not these days. Russia is spending all it's time building weapons to attack the Ukrainians. And what are the Indians going to build? I would add the Russians probably won't be too happy sharing close quarters with Indians, whose curry-based diets will stink the join up something awful...
This proves the U.S. State Department is still internationalist and apparently has never gotten the MAGA memo. Rubio should have killed this.
At least the Russians offered technical expertise to the ISS, and the others who went along with us in it offered money. What will India offer? Maybe they can start the first lunar call center?
If you want something done right...

Welcome AT Readers!
Timothy Birdnow
I have a piece at American Thinker this morning. Read it here.
Welcome to all AT readers! Feel free to look around and "set a spell". The Aviary is updated daily, or most days anyway, so be sure to come all back now, ya hear!
(BTW the photo at the top is of the famous Ozark Hilton, the cabin I built out of trash deep in the woods of the Ozarks. It was, uh, rustic and I've told many a tale about the mighty OH in the past. Sadly, due to circumstances beyond my control, I have not visited the cabin in two years and it may well be collapsed by now. A builder I am not.)
This used to be the website of me, Jack Kemp, Dana Mathewson and friends but over the years a lot of people dropped off due to time constraints (as has happened with most of the old time blogs) and it's down to pretty much just me, although Dana does some editing still. But I'll keep it going.
In fact this site used to be pretty influential if small, and had a decent audience. Rush Limbaugh read it, I know; he would occasionally mention stuff he could only have found here. And I used to be linked up to a number of very prestigious sites. But Google changed their algorithms and traffic dropped like a stone. That happened with the Gateway Pundit too.
At any rate I never did make money from this - it's a pure public service.
So do come back, and perhaps leave a comment or two. I would appreciate that.
Cheers!
Tim

Sea Level Rise
Timothy Birdnow
This from meteorologist Chris Martz:
Sea-levels have risen by nearly 400 feet over the past 20,000 years.
For most of the Holocene, sea levels were rising at higher rates 5-10× greater than they are today.
But the climate nancies would have you believe the last 8–12 inches are your GMC Yukon's fault

More Climate Porn
Timothy Birdnow
Another climate doomsday prophecy.
From the article:
California’s Central Valley faces the greatest peril, though flooding, landslides, power outages, and transportation failures could strike every county. "It was always a when, not if,” said Dr. Daniel Swain, a UCLA climate scientist who co-authored the ARkStorm 2.0 study. "Before global warming, that ‘when’ might have been centuries away. Now it’s quite likely to be within my own lifetime.”
Atmospheric rivers normally deliver up to half of California’s annual water supply. When they stall or arrive in rapid succession, however, they become engines of catastrophe.
The strongest can transport roughly 15 times as much water as the Mississippi River at its mouth. The original ARkStorm scenario, developed by the U.S. Geological Survey and other experts in 2010, drew partly on the Great Flood of 1861–62, when storms pounded the state for about 45 days and turned the Central Valley into a lake nearly 300 miles long. Geological records show six even more severe events struck California over the past 1,800 years.
Researchers updated the scenario in 2022 to account for a warmer climate. Swain described one key change as the "expanding atmospheric sponge effect.” For every 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit of warming, the atmosphere can hold about seven percent more water vapor.
"You can essentially just imagine an ordinary kitchen sponge that grows progressively larger with warming,” he said. "It has the capacity to absorb much more water.” When that moisture is released over California, rainfall intensifies dramatically.
And of course it is the elusive "climate change" at fault!
Yet the article has the seeds of it's own destruction in this one paragraph:
The strongest can transport roughly 15 times as much water as the Mississippi River at its mouth. The original ARkStorm scenario, developed by the U.S. Geological Survey and other experts in 2010, drew partly on the Great Flood of 1861–62, when storms pounded the state for about 45 days and turned the Central Valley into a lake nearly 300 miles long. Geological records show six even more severe events struck California over the past 1,800 years.
There was no man-made climate change in 1861 nor for any of the other severe events. How could they happen without global warming?
But, but, but...it's twice as likely, not that it didn't happen!
Well water vapor in the stratosphere has actually been declining not increasing and overall atmospheric water vapor has not grown at the 1% per decade rate that has been theorized (leading many climate researchers adjusting the data from the past to make it conform with their models) and in fact this stands to reason as we see a decline in planetary cloud cover over the last few decades. Nature just isn't cooperating with the models.
So talk of rivers of rain swallowing California are fear porn. While they MAY get hit with a major storm now and then, it has nothing to do with Global Warming and everything to do with cyclical weather patterns. There is a difference between weather and climate.

Foundation of Sand
Timothy Birdnow
He's right but he misses the whole point. They are not just pillagers, they are morally and spiritually empty.
You will notice the author has no solution to this problem. That's because he's looking at it from a purely pragmatic and ideological way. But the problem has it's roots in what these people BELIEVE.
Our problems stem from the rejection of Christianity by the West since the Enlightenment. While it may not be possible to convert everyone around the world our shared Judeo-Christian belief system still gave us the wherewithal to take the necessary steps to contain and control bad behavior. There was a consensus that there was a concrete right and wrong and someone who wanted to plunder another's goods was to be constrained. Now, with moral relativism, we actually sometimes think it is good that people steal because of "systemic racism" or some other such b.s.
Wherever Christianity has taken root it has civilized. That's because if you are Christian you follow the very civilized behavior of Christ. You don't rape or rob your neighbor if you are Christian.
Until we remember who we are, our religious and cultural roots, we will continue to become more and more like these Third World hellholes.
But, but, but..many ghetto areas in the U.S. have a lot of storefront churches and loud-praying people and THEY remain dirt poor! Yes and no. Many of these loud-praying Southern Baptist churches (or whatnot) are actually more about Prosperity Theology than anything else and this takes it's toll. These are people not praying to God for their spiritual improvement so much as seeing God as a cosmic ATM, a great Santa Clause in the sky. They think prayer will earn them good things in this life. But they do not reform their lives.
Some do, but most use it as a sort of magic. It's not about changing into a new creation but in feeding the old.
That is the problem. Most Christianity these days is about the corporal works of mercy, and reject the spiritual. Churches have become mere charity organizations, often very political in nature. They assume the afterlife can take care of itself. But without the fear of Hell and hope for Heaven people will act as they please - and that means they will sink back into the mud from which they crawled. We are all sinful, animals by nature. Christianity offers the way out but you have to accept it and live it.
Fear of the Lord is the beginning of all wisdom, the Bible tells us. The Bible is right. And fear of the Lord is the beginning of all decent civilization is the logical corollary.
So what we need to do to fight the rising socialists and other looters and vandals is to first remember who we are, why we are here, who it is who protects our civilization (America in particular was founded as Christ's refuge and as was pointed out by Otto von Bismarck — 'God has a special providence for fools, drunkards, and the United States of America.'. That was because our Independence was a true miracle, and our defending of this country was likewise. Miracles occurred during the War of 1812, and even the Mexican War was expected to end quite differently, which would have seen American expansion westward stopped as we would have had to give up Texas and other western territories.)
We need to restore the Christian faith to it's rightful place in society, and in so doing we need to make our laws and our customs in line with that belief system. Only then can we expect to succeed.
All other efforts are doomed to failure. We have rebuilt our nations on a foundation of sand.

The Age of Magic
Timothy Birdnow
Here is a rather disturbing development. Witchcraft seems to be taking over our universities.
Not only are occultic practices anti-science and thus by the standard set by the Left irrational, but they are actually dangerous to both body and soul, thus anti-Christian and anti-Humanist.
The article states:
ASU might argue the courses fall under the classification of history and do not promote witchcraft and the occult. But at least one course syllabus does not bear that out. For example, the syllabus for "Witchcraft and Heresy in Europe” says the class will examine how the identity of the heretic and the witch was constructed against its binary opposite, the "orthodox” Christian. It then turns to "religious Othering,” especially "the female as Other,” and asks students to explain how centuries-old witch persecutions continue to shape their own lives.
I have no doubt these courses promote such behavior and do not just explain them to the students.
I ask one simple question; why did Witchcraft disappear in the first place if it - in it's many guises - was so great? It disappeared because people realized it was superstition, or they realized it was actually dangerous. It had a limited appeal - Christianity had much more of an appeal.
And what nations have been governed by principles of wizardry and witchcraft? Haiti comes to mind; a great success story indeed!
Ultimately this is an appeal to Satan for power and success in this life, which is why it is attractive to some; they seek empowerment for one reason or another and offer themselves to demonic forces. Oh, many don't think that's what they are doing but it is. They are ultimately trading their souls for a more pleasing life. That is a terrible price to pay for the fleeting pleasures of this world.
There has long been an undercurrent of sympathy for the old pagan religions, particularly witchcraft, and we've seen it in popular culture for a long time. Remember the t.v. show Bewitched? How about Sabrina the Teenage Witch? The Harry Potter series? It goes on and on, and the purpose of portraying such pagan practices as fun is to attract people. With the spiritual vacuum caused by the erosion of Christianity into a social club there is a real hunger to fill that void and the old magical arts are making a play to do it. It is working to one degree or another.
As I've long said AI is a kind of witchcraft, and so too is the whole transgender business. It's a human attempt to build a tower to Heaven, much as did Nimrod in Babel. Oh, AI is technology, no question, but it's USE is often rooted in magical thinking; many see AI as their god. As for the trans issue, that should be obvious; by an act of will a man can become a woman if he insists loudly enough that he is one. Pure magic. Reality bends to the will of the individual.
We live in an age of magic, and that's not a good thing.
So it should come as no surprise that traditional magical arts like witchcraft are rising. They never fully went away and Christianity is shrinking in this the Great Apostacy. Coupled with technology you have a powerful psychological weapon to wield against the Church and so many are being swallowed in the maw of the magical demon.

The Green Firestarters
Timothy Birdnow
Solar Panels catch fire and could possibly burn your house down.
But then, isn't that the goal of "sustainability", to get everyone into high rise housing projects?
Makes a fellow wonder about all those fires in Canada and in the U.S.; were they started by arsonists or hippies with solar panels?

The Enviros Continue to Wage War
Timothy Birdnow
If you thought the green agenda was dead you would be horribly wrong.
The Gang Green is taking an operational pause to consolidate their gains and will resume the campaign as soon as Trump is gone.
They are quietly moving forward now, but they are still moving forward.
From the Wattsupwiththat article:
Last weekend, as wildfires continued to scorch parts of southern Europe, Frank Elderson of the European Central Bank’s Executive Board took to the pages of the Guardian to warn that the "climate and nature crises” now pose a direct threat to "core financial stability” and even "core price stability”. The destruction of ecosystem services, he insisted, is not some "flower-power, tree-hugging exercise” but "core economics”. The ECB, he added, is already deepening its scrutiny of banks’ exposures to nature-related risks, with further analysis due later this year.
This is the same institution that, only 10 days earlier, quietly expanded its "climate factor” in the "Eurosystem collateral framework” to cover non-financial corporate loans. From the end of 2027 at the earliest, loans to companies deemed exposed to "transition shocks” from climate change will face an additional haircut of up to 5%. The July decision and Elderson’s August rhetoric are of a piece: the ECB continues to weaponise climate (and now nature) policy even as the empirical, political and market ground shifts decisively under the alarmist camp.
Like Satan the Left wears many diguises and eco-friendly is one of them. But beneath the green there is red.
And they will now ride this hot European summer like a pony at a school picnic.

The Pope and King Harold
Timothy Birdnow
For all you history nerds out there.
Harold Godwinson is probably my favorite historical figure of all time. A man of extraordinary ability and of good character, he had acted as regent for King Edward the Confessor, who died without an heir. Harold was far and away the best choice to rule England. But there were overseas competitors who were related who wanted to job - Harold Hardrada Sigurdsons of Norway and the king of Demnark as well as Prince William of Normandy. The king of Denmark dropped out of the contest early on, but Harold Hardrada and William were both determined to become king of England and they BOTH invaded within days of each-other! Norway's Harold in the north of England first, and Godwinson had to reform his militia and marc two hundred miles north to face the old Viking. After defeating the fierce Norsemen word came to King Harold that the Normans were invading in the south. So his men marched another 200 miles in just days, with no rest, after making a 200 mile trek north and fighting a major battle, to face William and his invaders at Hastings.
And King Harold almost won. He had the Normans (actually a coalition of troops from all over Europe who came to fight for William with the promise of land in England) pinned down on the beach. In desperation William ordered the archers to shoot up into the air to get around the English shields. One arrow struck King Harold in the eye, went into his brain. But he kept fighting, although he grew weaker and weaker and eventually expired. A sad end for so able and dedicated a man.
With King Harold gone the fight went out of the English and eventually they fell for the very same trick King Harold used on Harold Hardrada - they fainted a retreat and then slaughtered the pursuing English.
The Normans won and took over the whole of the land and changed England forever. A new language was created, a pidgin composed of Old English and French and Latin and a smattering of other languages (thanks to the international coalition William had put together).
At any rate this research paper suggests King Harold backed the wrong man for Pope and so the Pope (Alexander II) backed Prince William in his bid to conquer England. It's why William was able to recruit so many lesser nobles all over the Continent to his cause; it was blessed by the Holy Father in Rome.

A Very Strange Genocide
Timothy Birdnow
I've been arguing with Jew haters on Facebook and they keep insisting Israel is engaged in "genocide". So I did a little research.
Here are stats on population growth in Palestine. It's an odd genocide indeed where the targeted population actually grows:
The current population of Palestine is 5,563,879 people, as of 2026 based on the adjusted UN estimation. The latest officially reported number was 5,413,596 in 2025.
Palestine accounts for 0.07% of the world's population.For the last 20 years, Palestine has had an average growth rate of 3.17% per year.Since 2006, population has increased from 3.41M people to 5.56M (63.3% growth in 20 years).Palestine is projected to reach 11.2M people in 2100.
If the Jews are trying to exterminate the Palestinians they sure are doing a piss-poor job of it.

Ukraine Strikes Deep Inside Russia
Timothy Birdnow
The Ukrainians have just taken the war with Russia to a new level, sending attack drones deep into Russia.
At some point Putin is going to get mad and when he does he's going to stop playing according to the rules of normal warfare.
FTA:
Ukraine's military has conducted a rare, mass casualty attack deep into central Russia. Long-range drones reached Tatarstan, which lies some 1,200km (or about 750 miles) east of the Ukrainian border.
The strikes killed 13 people and wounded at least 75 in what's widely being called one of the most deadly single attacks launched on Russian territory by Ukraine throughout the war.
"According to the latest information, 13 people have been killed and 75 wounded as a result of the drone attack," on the city of Nizhnekamsk, the Tatarstan region's press service indicated Monday.
Nizhnekamsk is an important oil refining hub, and also has a major petrochemical plant, and there have been reports of thick smoke rising above an oil facility near the city. NBC notes that "Ukraine’s General Staff said its forces struck a Taneco oil refinery in Nizhnekamsk, starting a fire."

Hillary: Calling them Communists will Hurt
Tmothy Birdnow
Yesterday I caught a Democrat strategist on one of the cable news shows and he was sayig how calling the DSA people "Communists" was bad and how it was going to cost the Republicans. Yes, we all know how much Democratic strategists worry about Republican political success.
When Hillary Clinton's instincts are right you know the Dems have a serious problem.
America fought a fifty some-odd year war against Marxism. While many young people may believe the Cold War was a fight over Greenland there are still a lot of people who remember it.
From the Zerohedge article:
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told Kara Swisher on the "Pivot" podcast that Republicans are deploying what she called a "very effective" anti-communist attack against the Democratic Party's rising class of far-left candidates, who are increasingly defeating establishment Democrats in primary races.
Clinton told Swisher that Abdul El-Sayed's narrow victory in Michigan's Democratic Senate primary is a wake-up call for the party. She said El-Sayed must unite the party by winning over supporters of moderate Rep. Haley Stevens and reassuring independent voters ahead of his general election contest against Republican Mike Rogers.
"The real fight will be, how do we make sure that people who voted for Haley feel comfortable voting for Abdul El-Sayed, and how do we get independents to feel comfortable," Clinton said.
"It's not just about Michigan, but the Republican messaging is 'communist, socialist.' It's going to be a very effective attack," she warned, adding, "People on the left have to be prepared to answer that and be effective in answering that."
The Clintons, of course, represented the moderate wing of the Democrats and what propelled Bill Clinton to electoral victory was his policy of "triangulation" which was essentially to stake out a position to the right of most Democrats but to the Left of the Republicans. This coupled with his boyish charm and apparent normalcy won the public over (well, sort of; he never won with more than a plurality and wouldn't have won at all had Ross Perot stayed out of the race.) The Clintons were always willing to drop the radical pose to achieve radical ends. Hillary was in fact quite radical (much more so than her husband who mostly was in it for the tail). But even she had the sense (and Hillary always had a political tin-ear) to avoid appearing to be a radical.
Now the Democrats are proudly, defiantly radical and think the American People will elect them. They believe they've already won and no longer have to hide who they really are.
Nancy Pelosi started all this. I remember when she ran for the leadership in the Democrats; she said she wanted to boldly show the "progressive" colors. She did and she started the party moving to the Left, and this is the inevitable result. Now she seems downright conservative next to the lunatic fringe that has become the mainstream of the Democratic Party.
At any rate calling these people out, showing them for what they are, is crucial to winning. "Resist the Devil and he will flee from you" as the Bible says. ""He will destroy them with the sword of His mouth and the brightness of His coming" as the Bible also says, and that means words are weapons and so is light. Satan triumphs in darkness. We have to have the courage to shine light and speak the truth.
We need to remind everyone of the countless murders by Marxists over the last hundred years. Read from The Little Black Book of Communism. Read from The Gulag Archipelago. Remind everybody of just how bad it was. Point to Cuba and Nicaragua and Venezuela now. Then ask if America wants that for our nation.

Stinking Paws on the Internet
Timothy Birdnow
The closure of the Internet and how the Left has co-opted the once free system to put control of information back in their hands.
It's a bit lengthy but quite good.

Israel Rejects BOP Peace Deal
Timothy Birdnow
Israel has rejecte the peace deal put forward by Trump's "Board of Peace" since it would leave Hamas with their weapons but require Israel to withdraw from Gaza.
I don't blame him; it's just another deal that is dependent on Hamas following through when they have no intention of doing so.
This is the same old saw we've seen repeatedly - a deal where Israel gives up land for the promise of peace.
