Amsterdam was always a city welcoming diversity and those in need of sanctuary. It has a long tradition of that, going back to the Puritans and even before. But now?
Now we have Muslim gangs rampaging in the streets, hunting down Jews as if they were foxes in an old style English fox hunt.
It is so bad Israel is evacuating any Jew they can find.
Why now? They know Donald Trump will bring the hammer down on them soon.

How can you not love a guy like this?
Trump sent a letter of resignation to McDonalds thanking them for the opportunity and offering to train his replacement!
As he explains he will be taking a new job soon and won't be able to fulfill any more duties at the fast-food restaurant.
Now stand back so as to be out of the splash zone when liberal heads explode.

Tell us about how Trump has no strong women around him Mark Cuban!
Trump Names Susie Wiles as First Female White House Chief of Staff in History
Trump appears to have been ready this time and is rolling like a juggernaut. He's going to go through the bowels of Washington like crap through a goose.

NASCAR had previously fined hate-crime hoaxster Bubba Wallace half a million bucks for r retaliatory contact against race winner Alex Bowman at the Chicago Street Race, hitting Bowman's car in a childish fit of pique. He and his racing team - 23XI Racing - have filed an anti-trust lawsuit against NASCAR in retaliation (see a pattern here?)
And everyone remembers the fake hate crime where supposedly a "noose" was left hanging to intimidate him - which turned out to be a garage door rope, and even the FBI said there was zero merit to Wallace' ridiculous "mee too" claim.
Now we have NASCAR fining Wallace a hundred grand for "race manipulation and actions detrimental to stock car racing." after antics at the Martinsville race. He faked a flat tire to help fellow racer and make competitor Chrisopher Bell swerve to hit the wall.
This guy is bad news; he should be banned from NASCAR, and probably from all racing.
But then he would no doubt sue by claiming racial discrimination. He's the Colin Kapernick of NASCAR.

The Democrats blew $2.1 BILLION to drag Kamala Harris across the finish line - and failed!
Couple that with all the free good press she received and that makes Trump's victory all the sweeter.
Harris outraised Trump by a margin of 5 to 1 and STILL lost!
Most of Mr. Trump's money came from small donations, and that is why they dried up; the tree had been shaken and there was little left to fall. But Harris? Much of her cash was "dark money" meaning it came through superpacs via NGO's that do not have to disclose the source of revenue.
See Election Shatters Records Fueled by Billion Dollar Dark Money Infusion
FTA:
Several major donors reportedly threatened to pause contributions to the hybrid PAC after President Joe Biden’s debate performance in June but money poured in after Harris entered the race.
Future Forward is required to disclose donors to the FEC but its top donor is a closely-tied dark money group, Future Forward USA Action, leaving the ultimate source of over $136.4 million of its funds unknown.
As a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization, Future Forward USA Action is not legally required to disclose its donors and does not voluntarily do so. But investigations have revealed some of the dark money group’s funding sources.
Billionaire media mogul Mike Bloomberg reportedly gave $50 million to Future Forward’s nonprofit arm, according to reporting by the New York Times, along with another $19 million to the hybrid PAC this cycle.
Future Forward’s PAC has also received $10 million from Democracy PAC, a super PAC funded entirely by billionaire megadonor George Soros and gains on the money it has invested. Open Society Policy Center, a nonprofit funded by Soros, has also disclosed steering money to Future Forward USA Action with $20 million during the 2022 election cycle.
In addition to the substantial funding it has received from Future Forward USA Action, other major donors reported by Future Forward’s PAC include billionaire LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, who gave $10 million. Dustin Moskovitz, another billionaire internet entrepreneur who co-founded Facebook, has given $38 million to the hybrid PAC."
According to at least one site Harris raked it over eight and a half times what Trump took in in dark money. And since dark money requires no reporting it seems quite likely this cash is coming from America's overseas enemies. How much did China contribute to Harris? Iran? Russia? For that matter how much money did Ukraine donate? I hae no doubt they were taking American taxpayer dollars given to them by the Biden Administration and donating it to superpacs to tamper with our election.
Follow the money, always follow the money.
Happily the powers of Hell have failed to prevail this time. But it will not be so forever, especially as many Americans will soon forget and go back to bad old habits.

"Many of you wished me dead. Many of you perhaps still do. But I
hold no grudges and
seek no revenge. I
demand only this...that
you join with me in
building a new Rome, a
Rome that offers
justice, peace and land to all its citizens, not just the privileged few. Support me in this task, and old divisions will be forgotten. Oppose me,
and Rome will not
forgive you a second
time. Senators, the war is over."
Julius Caesar
I just learned an interesting little fact; despite the bad joke about Puerto Rico being "floating garbage" the good people of that Carribean island paradise actually elected a REPUBLICAN as governor - Jennifer Gonzalez Colon, who is currently the non-voting representative for Puerto Rico. Seems the U.S. protectorate is drifting to the right.
No wonder we didn't hear so much talk this time of making Puerto Rico a state; the Dems realize they are starting to lose it and are probably frightened to push for statehood now.
Also, in Florida heavily Puerto Rican areas flipped to Trump. For instance osceola county, a county that is 30% Puerto Rican and which had gone for Biden by 14 points in 2020 flipped to Trump by +1.5, signalling that many PUerto Ricans voted Trump.
So Puerto Ricans seem to be moving from blue to red. Now might be a good time to just float the idea of statehood for Puerto Rico just to watch the Democrats squirm. (Not actually do it now but float the idea to see how they react.)
I suspect the last four years have been a splash of cold water on the faces of many of the traditional Democratic groups and slowly but surely they are starting to realize their interests - and their futures - lie not with the socialist Democrats but with the more traditional GOP.
Certainly Ted Cruz' big win in Texas suggests Hispanics in general are moving to the right. (I think it is myopic to look at Hispanics as a single group; they are as vastly different as Europeans and a person from Ecuador would be insulted at his being characterized as the same thing as a Mexican, say.) Granted, it's hard to tailor a message to every variant of Hispanic, but we need to discriminate a little better if we want to pull in the major groups in that block. But they may well be turning away from the socialist Democrats and for the same reason many of them left their homelands in the first place. No Venezualan refugee wants to put in an anglo version of Hugo Chavez.
lt is often true too that first generation immigrants are liberals and Democrats; they are here with limited resources and the Democrats give them free stuff. But as they rise in the free market system they start to realize that this does not serve them well,but rather keeps them poor and ignorant and that by design. So they start to flip to the GOP as they mature as Americans. I wonder (hope) is this isn't what is happening now? Are many Hispanics growing as Americans and coming to appreciate the need to maintain a free market system and a politically diverse country? Perhaps.
Getting back to Puerto Rico many of them saw the neglect of the Democrats over the years, especially after hurricanes decimated their Island. And they saw it was under Republican leadership they rebuilt, not under Democrats. The Democrats solution was always to move them to Republican states in America and force them to live here. There was little interest in rebuilding by the Dems.
I would add the New Progressive Party is one of the two main parties in Puerto Rico and it actually advocates independence and not statehood. It is considered right of center. THIS is the party of Jennifer Gonzalez Colon. So there remains strong sentiment in Puerto Rico to NOT become a state (precisely why now would be a good time to float the idea by the GOP "if the good people of Puerto Rico so choose".)
Any way you slice it Trump is eating the Democrats lunch and in fact reinvigorating their traditional power base. That's why they so hate the man.
High time. For decades now there has been nobody to speak for Middle America, or any of the marginalized groups (and Middle America is now a marginalized group) and Trump is building a coalition that could well be nigh unto unbeatable. Oh, and the RINO wing is tiptoeing around now. If any group should not have a party it is they, not us. They never considered what we wanted but simply grabbed everything they themselves wanted and told us to like it or lump it. How's that lump taste now, eh?
Julius Caesar and later his nephew Octavius (Augustus) transformed Rome from a corrupt republic in a constant state of civil war into a reasonably peaceful empire and they did so by appealing to the populi - the average person. Caesar's enemies were all patrician types, appealing to the aristocrats and rich men. Caesar and Octavius built a lasting kingdom on the shoulders of Middle Rome. There is great power in the People and both men knew it.
Trump is the American Caesar. He's systematically ingathering the neglected peoples and wedding them to his cause. The Ruling Class - the American Patricians - have most of the advantages, and with technology at their command they seem unbeatable, but so too did the patricians at the time of Caesar. Men like Sulla, or eventually Pompey or Cato, were all from the Patrician class.
Trump, like Caesar, was gracious in victory and put many of his enemies in positions of authority after his triumph. They subsequently killed h im and for the same reasons they have been taking pot-shots at Mr. Trump; Caesar was a reformer who built on the shoulders of the People and that was something the Patricians could not allow.
Octavius would learn the lesson of that; he wiped out his enemies in a series of "proscriptions" which included Brutus and Longinus, two of Julius' assassins, and later he would finish off Marcus Antonious aka Mark Antony, as well as a host of others. He wasn't so much blood-thirsty as he understood better the kinds of vipers he was dealing with.
I wonder at all this; the parallels between the two Caesars and Trump and perhaps his Octavius - J.D. Vance - are rather interesting. Will Trump meet the same fate as Caesar? Certainly that is an attractive prospect to the Demo-Left Patricians. Will J.D. Vance step up as did Augustus? Hard to say.
But I find a striking similarity between then and now. History always repeats. The question is, will Mr. Trump be able to save America as did the two Caesars? Or will they fail and will it all come crashing down? At this stage the salvation of America is a dubious prospect and I am not at all sure it can be done. But Trump is doing everything right and it may be we will see a stronger America emerge. Oh, and Trump is no Caesar; he isn't going to have murder lists like Augustus did. But he can still drive a stake through the Left's heart.
Let us hope anyway. History repeats; first as tragedy then as farce. Let's hope it is neither.

Do we expect anything else?
Kamala Campaign Manager Says She Plans to Kneecap Trump Presidency
OF COURSE they plan to sabotage Trump and make him as unsuccessful as possible. Fortunately I suspect Trump will be ready for that this time around.
The choice of Attorney General is all-important; Trump needs a man who will be completely loyal and at the same time squeaky clean. He needs someone doctrinaire, and someone willing to go after these people to the fullest extent of the law. Oh, and someone from outside the Swamp.
Might I suggest Missouri's attorney general Andrew Bailey? Bailey would probably jump at the chance and he's proven himself to be just the kind of AG that Trump needs. He's been a solid defender of middle America for several years now.
But if not Bailey there are plenty of other folks who would make great AG's; Jay Seculow and Jeanine Pirro are two names that come to mind. Maybe Ron DeSantis would agree to be AG? (Probably not but who knows? I would prefer to leave him in place for the next Senate election.)
But we cannot afford another Bill Barr or Jeff Sessions. Trump was twice suckered by the Swamp and paid a terrible price. Had Sessions not recused himself from the Trump investigation in the first place much of what we endured would have been short-circuited. But he handed the reins over to Rod Rosenstein, a deep-state guy, and thus we suffered endless investigations that tied Trump up in octopodal fashion. The Democrats will try this again; Trump needs to not fall for it.
In fact Trump should recruit from the state level as much as possible and bypass the Washington Beltway dwellers entirely. He was elected by Middle America - he should have an administration that is made up of Middle America.
One thing is certain; we need a real fighter at the helm in the AG's office, a COMPETENT fighter. The Democrats are going to double down on lawfare; so should we.
A side point; it is perhaps time for Clarence Thomas to step down, now while Trump has the ability to appoint a replacement. Thomas is 76 years old - younger than Trump, certainly, but he'll either be retiring or dying in dure course and we don't want him to go at an inopportune time as did Antonin Scalia. We got very lucky, with Trump able to put Neil Gorsuch into office. But the Democrats lost Ruth Bader Ginsburg at a bad time from their perspective and would up with Amy Conehead Barrett, whom the Democrats despised. Granted, she's moved to the Left since taking her seat. But Trump had no way of knowing she would be so cozy with the statists in the "RBG seat".
I hate losing Thomas, I really do. But if we are to lose him eventually I most earnestly hope it is on our terms and not the Democrats.

It was ALWAYS political!
Breaking — Merrick Garland, Jack Smith drop both cases against President Trump.
Now that Trump can pardon himself they are going to cut their losses and move on with some new deviltry.
If they don't drop this it may be Mr. Trump won't drop it either - and that could hurt a LOT! They want to keep this dirty trick in reserve for the next time they are in power.
Trump would be a fool to allow both of these men to just walk away from this. It will only invite more of this down the road.

We knew this was coming!
100+ progressive groups are already working on resisting Trump.
They are going to try to Bork Trump like they did last time. We have to be ready to take the fight to these monsters.
BTW the GOP at most barely held the House and may have lost, and only picked up two seats in the senate. Why? Because Congressional Republicans have been cowards all along and unwilling to fight and this is what happens to cowards. McConnell actively worked against MAGA, and when push came to shove MAGA was less interested in working for an ingrate like that. Ditto the House where Squeeker Johnson has betrayed us repeatedly, despite talking a good game.
You can't expect people to stand with you when you won't stand with them.
The fight has just begun, folks.

Lett us all make today a day of thanks to Almighty God, who heard our plea and defended us against the evil one.
Time to pray in thanksgiving, folks!
BTW I have some turkey thighs and plan to have them with some sweet potatoes for supper - an early thanksgiving in gratitude for what God has wrought today.
At a minimum we all should say a prayer of thanksgiving. This could not have happened without the hand of God. Trump was right; God spared his life to do His work - for US. We should all thank Him!
BTW Half of the pro-abortion amendments passed yesterday. We should all tremble; God is just and it was God who sent those children to us and we will have an accounting for that. My home state of Missouri passed one, and so now abortion on demand is the law of the land up to birth. There will be a terrible price to pay for that.

How could THIS happen?
Fani Willis Somehow Wins Reelection in Landslide
This means Willis will continue her one-woman crusade against Trump, and charges will not be dropped. This further means she could well bring down Trump's presidency.
Now more than ever we need to charge her with crimes and remove her from office. She'll never stop and the Democrats will back her, along with the media. She clearly is dirty, and lied under oath about her relationship with her underling. She needs to be impeached by the Georgia legislature.
How do you maintain a viable republican form of government with an electorate so insane as to vote in this type of partisan hack, a hack willing to defecate on the Constitution just for political power?

Trump won the Catholic vote by a landslide 15 points in a rebuke to Church leadership, which has moved decidedly leftward under the current Peronista Pontiff and the increasingly leftist Catholic Bishops.
High time; Harris supported so very many anti-Catholic and anti-Christian positions (abortion on demand, transgenderism, etc.) and yet we were all supposed to forget that and vote for her anyway because she wants to steal money from some to give to others in a horrible mockery of Jesus' admonishion to be charitable. Apparently Catholics realized she was a leap too far.

Kamala Harris did not speakto her supporters after her crushing defeat by Donald J. Trump in the election last night.
Apparently she was so humiliated by her loss she couldn't be bothered to come out and give a thank you to her people.She had to send a man out to tell the crowd she wouldn't address them. As of 3:30 on the day after the election she is still awol.
This is much like Hillary Clinton, who did the same. I wonder if she's plotting some legal action in a Sore-Loserman, er, Gore-Lieberman style? Maybe. But the numbers are just out of reach no matter how she tries to work them, and there was indeed a lot of cheating but it was from Harris' camp. She cannot dare open THAT can of worms.
At any rate we are well rid of her!
Addendum: as I was writing this Harris finally showed up for her concession speech. Not bad in terms of soaring rhetoric but really just vapid and she continued to laugh and smile in her fake way, proving she has never been a genuine person.
Luckily this should be the last we hear of her. Losing candidates usually disappear by and large and after getting skunked no Democrat will support another run by her.
But her speech with all the talk about "rolling up your sleeves" and "the fight goes on" suggests she may run for Governor of California as a stepping stone to running again for President. So, like Hillary Clinton, we may yet to be shed of her.
Oh, one other thing; on Sebastian Gorka's television show they were flashing a graph showing the voting patterns in the last four elections. Harris performed the same as did all other Democrats EXCEPT Joe Biden who way outperformed in 2020, despite the fact Trump won more votes than anyone in hisotory. It made it plain as day that they cheated last time, with the pandemic rules in place and mail in ballots. The Dems just couldn't pull this off again; a global pandemic is a once-in-a-lifetime gift from God, or in this case Lucifer, for unscrupulous partisans. They just couldn't get away with it.

"From the far East, I send you one single thought, one sole idea, written in red on every beachhead from Australia to Tokyo – "There is no substitute for victory!"

"Remember thou art mortal"
"Remember thou art mortal"

America has spoken and we win!
Now beware the post-election steal as the Democrats try to deny the GOP House seats, especially in California. And be even more wary of an attempted assassination on Mr. Trump and on Mr. Vance as these people are going to be MOST unpleasant in their death-throes.

More skullduggery in Philadelphia as the city of brotherly gov tells illegal aliens they can vote if they are residents of the City that Screws You Back.
Philadelphia City Commissioner's Office Tells None-Citizens They Can Vote if They are City Residents
The Commissioner denies they did this but Frank O'Keefe has them on tape!
Milton James, the head honcho of the voting division of teh Commissioner's office, has been telling non-citizens they can vote, and he has been sending them across the street to an NGO named Ceriba to set them up with a ITIN Number to facilitate that.(An Itin number is a taxpayer identification number provided by the IRS to aliens. It stands for Individual taxpayer identification number.)
O'Keefe has been all over Pennsylvania and the fraud occurring there.
My question is, what will happen to this guy, or anyone else involved? Probably nothing, even if Trump wins.
Until this country gets serious about vote fraud and punishes anyone who engages in it with more than a wrist slap it will continue. We have to make penalties severe enough that nobody dares try it.
So if we lose Pennsylvania we probably lose the White House, and that could well wind up being aliens who cause that.
The Democrats are pulling out all stops to steal this thing, which says they are not at all confident that Harris is winning.

Here is an article from ABC News about polling bias from an historical perspective.
(ABC stands for "awful bad coverage".)
It's been with us since forever, certainly, but metastasized since the century began, according to this article.
FTA:
For instance, we know that pollsters underestimated Trump’s position in the 2020 presidential election, to the tune of an average bias of about 4 points more Democratic than the real result. In 2016, the bias was similarly around D+3. So we’ve had two straight presidential cycles in which the polls have exaggerated the Democrats’ standing in the polls, which naturally makes people suspicious that we could once again see pollsters undershoot Trump’s actual vote share in 2024.
However, one only has to look a little farther back to see that polling bias does not consistently favor one party or the other. In 2012, pollsters undershot Barack Obama’s result in the presidential race by an average of about 2.5 points. And all told, the average bias in presidential elections dating back to 2000 is about a point more Democratic than the actual outcome. The broader point is, it’s nigh impossible to predict which direction polling bias will go ahead of the election. Pollsters are constantly working to try to overcome the challenges facing their industry, so expecting the past to be prologue when it comes to error and/or bias is a fool’s game."
Of course the elephant in the room is vote fraud, which is why Obama outperformed his polling numbers. In fact fraud has played a pivotal role in every election since Sore-Loserman challenged Bush's win, and even before that during the Clinton era. But the polls are not about reflecting the public opinion but leading them. And they all play by the same rules, hence you get the same results. These guys clearly coordinate their polling.
Doubt that? Democratic pollster Nate Silver has admitted they all do it out of fear of being an oulier. That is, of course, assuming they aren't doing it because they want to place a thumb on the scale.
The case of Obama cited in the article omits the fact that while the race was predicted as close Obama was always ahead. He simply pulled away on election night, probably because of ballot box stuffing.
The GOP was still operating under a plea agreement from 1984 in which they could not challenge suspected vote fraud by the Democrats; Obama had nothing to lose by stuffing the boxes. Donald Trump pulled the GOP out of the agreement in 2018, 34 years later! How many elections were stolen and not just for the Presidency under this?
At any rate even ABC News, whose news service is run by Clinton's political hatchet man George Stephenopoulis, is admitting the polls aren't to be trusted.
Why now? Could it be they are setting up for the big steal and want to be able to justify it when Harris wins by upset?
