No Canada (NO More)
Timothy Birdnow
So we may annex part of Canada eh?
Frankly, I don't see why Western Canada has stayed in the Dominion as long as they have. Canada is completely dominated by the leftists in Quebec and Ontario and the other provinces get short shrift.
From the article by Tyler Durden at Zerohedge:
A new bombshell report in Financial Times says that US officials have held recent talks with Canadian separatists seeking to break Alberta, Canada's oil-rich western province, away from Ottawa.
"Officials in the [US President] Donald Trump administration discussed loaning Alberta $500 million to break up Canada and make it the 51st state," one source told the FT.
fin
If Alberta doesn't want to join the U.S. she can surely become an independent country; it has the oil resources to fund it and a willing partner in the United States.
As a nation Canada never made much sense. Underpopulated and underdeveloped it never did develop much in the way of a Canadian culture, but rather mimicked it's southern neighbor. July frist was chosen as Canada Day precisely because it coincided with America's independence day - no other reason. Everything Canadian, from their flag to their national anthem, was astroturfed, designed by committees.
And the people have nothing in common. French Canadians have an entirely different culture than do Anglos in the other provinces. And the French Canadians have threatened to secede and form their own country for decades, nut nobody in Canada has the wherewithal to actually do that. Now Albertans are thinking about doing it; they are sick of being restrained on the development of their oil and gas industry by Ottawa in the Holy Name of Climate.
Alberta would, of course, be a landlocked nation but with a friendly neighbor to the south rail lines and oil pipelines and whatnot will serve. I would encourage the folks in British Columbia to secede too but certainly the U.S. doesn't need another left wing left coast state entering our union.

Tossed Salad
Timothy Birdnow
So Ilhan Omar was sprayed with apple cider vinegar by some nut job who in fact does belong in jail. It's a strange substance to "attack" her with - a pie would be more comical and most especially coconut cream. But then I suppose apple cider vinegar is apt; she is a bad apple and after her word salad I suspect the attacker was just hungry and wanted to add a little dressing...
Funny; there have been many instances of actual assassination attempts on Republicans, like the knife attack on Lee Zeldin a couple of years ago, and the media largely yawned. But throw vinegar on a crooked Somali and it may as well be the Kennedy assassination.
As I said, this guy belongs in jail and I hope they throw the book at him. But there is a comical element to it all for sure. (Not sure why someone would risk their freedom and maybe their life to spray salad dressing on a chick, but there you have it. The guy must be mentally unbalanced. Actually I suspect he's working for Omar, or someone who is also working with Omar, but that's just speculation.)
Of course he obviously wasn't shooting for sauer kraut; Omar isn't German, as far as anyone can tell.

Pretti - America's Sweetheart
Timothy Birdnow
This video shows Alex Pretti going beserk at previous ICE operations, spitting on an officer and kicking the taillight out of one of their vehicles.
Yeah; a peaceful protester, a real Florence Nightingale.
This is ruining the narrative for the Left, which is why there isn't much conversation about the story today. They will trot this back out at campaign rallies and the like but this particular story is now a drag on their narrative and they know it.
They are going to have to go bigger next time.
This is going to keep happening until the governor and mayor and AG knuckle under or are arrested.

The Sucker's Game
Timothy Birdnow
There is much sloppy thinking and emotional non-analysis of this shooting of this Pretti fellow in Minneapolis, and many ordinary people are being suckered by the media, which, after having lied to us previously in the death of that Good woman who ran over a Federal Agent (and he had interna bleeding to prove it) is now using unclear video footage to argue that ICE 'murdered" this angel of mercy, who was only interested in helping a woman who was knocked down by those evil goose-stepping Browbshirts of the Border Patrol and Customs. This isn't the first time they've lied to us about shootings or other deaths; take a look at "Big Mike" Brown's shooting in Ferguson where we were treated to the lie of "Hands up! Don't shoot!" when in fact that never happened, but rather Mr. Brown punched officer Darren Wilson in the face through his squad-car window and he had the injuries to prove it. Or we had Eric Garner, or George Floyd who died from a police "choke hold" (an entirely legal move) but the coroner said he had double the lethal limit of fentynal in his system. How many lies are we going to fall for? Yet here we are with a lot of Americans believing this fairy tale story about Mr. Pretti, even while the body of Renee Good has barely had time to reach room temperature and we know THAT was a lie. How many times can a boy cry wolf?
That said, the argument is that Mr. Pretti was an American citizen, exercising his right to protest, and was, in fact, trying to help a woman who was knocked down and pepper sprayed by ICE agents FOR NO GOOD REASON and then was set upon by a pack of wolves in riot gear who murdered him because, well, it's just so much fun! He had a gun but was had a permit for that, too, and they shot him after taking the gun off him.
These are all lies or half-truths and the media knows it, as does Governor Walz, Mayor Curley Frey, and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison. (Oh, interestingly enough, al three of these men are implicated in the muti-billion dollar Somali daycare scandal and could wind up with prison time. It's very handy this shooting happened now so as to be able to accuse the Trump DOJ of a politically motivated prosecution and thus avoid it or find a way out of the noose.)
Let us define what it is we are talking about. Mr. Pretti was not just walking down the street but was attending a violent protest, a riot, or near enough. The people who he was standing with were screaming and blowing whistles and whatnot, obviously intended to disturb and distract the officers on the scene. The police were awol at the behest of Mr. Frey and Mr. Walz so these agents were alone in a sea of angry and contentious individuals, and that was by design; they hoped to povooke just such an incident. Mr. Pretti was attempting to interfere in a lawful arrest of a person already given deportation papers and who had a criminal conviction. They were not going after some sweet old grandmother who overstayed her visa; these were the bad people. Yet Pretti felt pretty good about them anyway, since he obviously hated MAGA and the American People. ICE was following the law as written BY CONGRESS. Instead of working to change the law he sought, along with his comrads there, to interfere with law enforcement agents, which is illegal.
He broke multiple laws and put himself in danger. Let me explain.
Mr. Pretti had a carry permit, yes he did. But what is a carry permit? It is a license to carry a firearm. Let me ask, would his behavior have been considered acceptable for any other license?
We're all familiar with driver's licenses so let's look at that. When you get a driver's license (and you don't need one if you drive on private land, just on public roads) you agree to a number of contingencies. You have to be sober. You have to be attentive (you get a ticket and can lose your license for careless and imprudent driving, for instance.) You agree to keep your vehicle in proper working order. You agree to follow the rules of the road, and drive on the right side (or if in Britain on the left). You agree to limit your speed as posted. And you agree to follow all directions given you by law enforcement officers, and to pull over if they hit their lights. And you agree to keep your driver's license on your person at all times, as well as proof of insurance for the vehicle.
If you fail to stop for a police car they will give chase, and if you get out of the car and try to run or make a move that suggests you have a firearm they will shoot you. That is how cops are trained, and rightly so; without that you descend into Mad Max/Road Warrior territory, with the strongest making the rules and the rest of us being dominated prey.
If a police officer says put your hands on the steering wheel you put your hands on the wheel. You don't reach over to the glove compartment or you will get shot. If he tells you to put your hands on the roof of the car you do it; you don't scuffle with him.
If we consider those things it becomes crystal clear that Mr. Pretti was playing with fire. He did NOT have his carry permit on his person as required by state law. He did not disclose he had a firearm to the agents as required by state law He went over to help the woman who was pepper sprayed (and no doubt for good reason) despite not being asked, and in fact while the agents were ordering him to stop. He disobeyed their lawful order and they tried to remove him and he began scuffling with them. He fought so hard, in fact, it took a number of them to restrain him (and in fact they still didn't have him restrained). They found one gun on him and there was no reason to believe he didn't have another and he was still struggling. Oh, and a recent report said it was not one agent but two who fired on him and only after the shooting did they recover the gun, according to CBS News, hardly a friend of the Trump Administration. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/two-federal-agents-fired-their-weapons-during-alex-pretti-shooting-report-congress-says/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab7e&linkId=901725060
So TWO agents felt imperiled by this guy, not just one skittish agent. And at least one of them was an eight year veteran with ICE, not a rookie. Granted, you could argue that these guys were poorly trained because they didn't really do anything before now except facilitate the movement of illegal aliens into the country, and there could be some validity to that, but whose fault is that? Joe Biden's and Barack Hussein Obama's, that's who. They turned ICE into a baby-sitting operation. If they were poorly trained (and I sincerely doubt it) it was by design by the people Trump replaced.
If this shooting were by local cops of a guy they had pulled over and who started scuffling with them while packing heat nobody would say a word; it would be considered a justifiable shooting. But the politics of this is informing all the coverage and the media is twisting it to the advantage of the Democrats, who are more or less in open insurrection against the Federal government, going full Ft. Sumpter with this in the sour apple. This IS an insurrection, unlike the self-guided Capitol building tour which featured minor scuffling with the cops in D.C. (who actually invited many of them inside). Had there been a shooting there nobody would have complained overmuch. Oh, wait; there WAS a shooting there, of an unarmed woman who was just climbing in a window The cop, a guy named Bird, was promoted for it.
Amazing how the media's take on these two events is so shockingly different. They wanted everyone arrested and the key thrown away for the "insurrection" in D.C. but are happy to put Federal agents in danger now. In fact, the media likely wants deaths by ICE shootings; certainly Walz and Frey and Ellison and Ilhan Omar do. They need justification for further violence.
And if the Trump Administration "de-escalates" aka caves on this these riots will swell nation-wide. This is all about political power and the Left is using Saul Alinsky tactics here. They are trying to "rub raw the sores of discontent". In fact, this is standard operating procedure for Communist takeovers of countries and has been for a century. Flood the streets with "protesters" aka rioters then provoke the authorities into shooting someone, call it a "massacre" and then gin up sympathy from the public while isolating the people in power. OH, and they also demand resignations for it, to isolate the President as they did with Richard Nixon.
Anyone who falls for this is either monumentally myopic or just plain lazy. The media has lied to us repeatedly and we still fall for it, like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football. A lot of good Conservative folks are buying this nonsense too.
Anyone who saw any of those videos should immediately understand this was a completely justified shooting. You can't fight with the authorities like Mr. Pretti did and think you have the right to do so. That way leads to anarchy, to a dystopian society. Just because the agents didn't see him pull a gun out to shoot them doesn't matter; he had one and could have had two or three. Oh, and he had a semi-automatic and TWO clips. You don't need that to defend yourself. The sole reason he was carrying that was in case of gunfire, so he would have plenty of ammunition to shoot ICE agents if the situation warranted. He went there planning trouble and it found him.
We have to change the narrative about this and now. This is all about the next election; the Democrats needed a hail-Mary pass and this is it. They hope to sour America on deportation of aliens (which gave them a machine to win eternal power even if they didn't vote, which many of them did) and thus on the GOP in general. Many Republicans are falling dutifully into line too, believing dishonest polling and the Nightly News.
Don't fall for it.

The New Bronze Age

What is Trump's Endgame in Minnesota?
Timothy Birdnow
The MAGA base is extremely worried Donald Trump is going to back down in Minnesota.
They are right to be fearful; it will be the end of Trump's Presidency.
But worse, it will only be the beginning of the violence as the Left will see they can get what they want by throwing a tantrum. It's the reason why it's the policy of the United States not to negotiate with terrorists; give them any sort of victory and they'll go for more.
I suspect Trump understands this but he does often have some big blind spots. I fear he may think this is just another negotiation - it's not. It's a revolution in the making.
In revolutions one side does not seize power from a strong entrenched foe. What happens is power is leached away until nobody listens to the leaders anymore and someone just walks in and takes the government away from them. And that always starts with a tacit admission of weakness, as will be apparent if Trump does not win this fight.
If Walz wins here the Left will start up riots in every major city they control. It will make the BLM riots seem tame
Meanwhile the base will stay home on election day and the Democrats will take power in Congress and then all bets are off; Trump won't be able to move a single piece of legislation through, and he'll be investigated non-stop and impeached four or five more times And remember Trump was never sentenced in his New York conviction and the case was not dismissed with prejudice; they will imprison him if the successfully impeach him, and probably even if they don't. Trump has to win this to survive.
Trump had better understand all this and come up with an appropriate response.
The best thing that could happen here would be a smoking gun video showing the ICE agents made a clean shooting. That is, unfortunately, unlikely to come out and even if it does the Left will call it a deep fake.
Trump should go on television with an address to the nation and explain why this is b.s. and how the state of Minnesota is engaging in full nullification of laws. Don't be bombastic but lay out the timeline of events and show how dirty Walz and Ellison are and how as chief law enforcer he's duty bound to go after these criminals, many of whom are pedophiles and rapists. Trump has been playing it far too coy.
Maybe he has a plan. I hope so.
Oh, and he'd be a fool to let them take out Kristi Noem. That only creates the impression his Administration is corrupt and out of control. This is how they took out Nixon, by isolating him via taking his people out. At the end the people working for Nixon were prepared to throw him under the bus to save their own skins.
I have to think Trump has a masterstroke in the works. We must hope so. Hopefully these "negotiations" are just a ruse.

Man Arrested as Mr Squirts
Timothy Birdnow
So the mad sprayer in Minnesota has been named. He is Anthony Kazmierczak, 55.
He is supposedly an unemployed MAGA guy and his Facebook page suggests he is - but is the Facebook page even real? This article does not link to it.
I found this description quite interesting:
Kelley told the Post that Kazmierczak "has been ‘heavily medicated’ due to a car wreck that impacted his spine years ago.”
The neighbor told the Post that the car accident "left him ‘not very physically able to do much.’”
"He’s also been diagnosed with Parkinson’s,” the neighbor added.
end
Sooo....He wasn't able to do much but he was able to bum rush the stage and spray Omar with some kind of stinky fluid.
What was he trying to achieve? It was not a dangerous chemical or she'd be sick right now (she did not seek treatment). And given the fact Omar is in fairly deep trouble right now with investigations of her sudden, dramatic accumulation of wealth while the scam to steal daycare funds in her own community has broken there would be no sane reason to do this. It only helps Omar and that's a fact.
This guy was sick and unemployed. Maybe they made him some sort of offer?
Generally by the time you are 55 you know better.
I don't believe any of this for one second. Conservatives aren't this stupid.
Also he allegedly did this because he was angry about Omar's national security policies. NOT her corruption, nor her immigration stance. Does that sound right to you?
I went on Facebook to see if I could find his page and read his posts. There were two entries that came up in a search and both of them were full of opinions by other people about this guy, and all of them called him a "Trump supporter". But I never could actually get into his own site to verify anything.
This stinks to high heaven and I suspect if the FBI investigates we'll learn this guy is an agent-provocateur.

The Meese that Roared
Timothy Birdnow
When they lose a mouse like Ed Meese you know it's bad:
Immigration Accountability Project
@iaproject
Former Attorney General Edwin Meese just filed an amicus brief in the birthright citizenship case: "The conventional wisdom, accepted over decades, is that Wong Kim Ark supports absolute birthright citizenship to everyone born in the United States. The holding in this case does not go as far as the conventional wisdom would have you believe. And no matter how long a mistaken interpretation of a Supreme Court case has been around, its longevity does not make it any less mistaken.”
@PILFoundation

Conflict of Interest
Timothy Birdnow
Check this; the judge who ordered the release of the church invaders in Minnesota (a Bush appointee, I might add) is a huge donor to organizations trying to promote the illegal invasion of America.
Hugo Tobay Robles has been outed by Fox News' Bill Melugin:
Bill Melugin
@BillMelugin_
NEW:
@FoxNews
has learned that Patrick J. Schiltz, the Minnesota federal judge who is threatening to hold ICE Director Todd Lyons in contempt of court & is ordering him to appear in court on Friday, appears in a 2019 list of donors & volunteers for the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota, an organization that provides free legal advice and representation for illegal immigrants. Judge Schiltz was appointed by President Bush in 2006.

Leftist Calls for Nuremberg Trials for Ice, Witch Hunts for Sport
Timothy Birdnow
Well, liberals had been calling for Nuremberg trials for "climate change deniers" so why not call for Nuremberg trials for ICE?
The thing is this is a double-edged sword and can be applied against clowns like this as well as against our side. We can have such trials of the people fomenting violence and revolution too.
The first thing the Left does after taking power is hold show trials and wipe out the opposition. Stalin did it, Lenin did it.
Anyway this guy is named Scott Galloway and he's a professor of Marketing at the NYU School of Business. He was on a podcast with a leftie named Kara Swisher. Swisher and swallows nodded enthusiastically in agreement.
Galloway was elected to the World Economic Forum's "Leaders for Tomorrow" in 1999, so you can see where he's coming from. He's also a host for CNN+ streaming.
Oh, did I mention he went to UC Los Angeles and is an atheist?
The nutty professor said:
"I think there should be something equivalent to the Nuremberg Trials once this is all over... to make it clear: once we’re back in power — which we will be — this is going to happen. And the statute of limitations on murder is never.”
Don't write checks you can't cash sir. If you try this then maybe we'll hold our own protests in the same way that you held these, and see how you manage. The public isn't going to stand for show trials, not now anyway.
This is more proof that the Left is tyrannical in nature, the true fascists. They say they will fight "fascism" by being Bolsheviks. Wonderful.
Meanwhile a Democrat District Attorney vows to hunt down ICE agents like Nazis for decades to come.
Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner promised an anti-ICE rally to pursue the agents carrying out lawful orders in a lawful manner as war criminals. This is not in any way befitting the chief law enforcer in Pennsylvania or any other state; it is weaponizing the office and making such threats demands this guy's immediate removal.
These creeps never consider there is a judge who will set things right in the end and that their abuses of others simply for daring to disagree with them is not escaping His eye. These people are inciting violence and will have to answer for that some day.
The left is going insane, more than it already had been. That's because they thought they had the whole game won and learned they didn't and that America really doesn't believe what they do. Both of these men know the arguments from the other side and know they are defending people who have committed crimes, many of them quite heinous, including pedophilia, sex trafficking and rape as well as dealing deadly drugs like fentanyl. But they don't care because all they concern themselves with is the acquisition of power and the creation of their dream socialist utopia. In the case of the professor he's made millions from capitalism while he's pushing an agenda to strip others of that right.
But then this is their religion. I hope they enjoy the end result; it's not going to turn out as they think.

CBS Paints a Pretti Picture
Timothy Birdnow
It wasn't just one agent who opened fire on Alex Pretti but two of them.
What does that tell us class?
One agent may become skittish and fire in panic, but two? Doubtful. And remember the agent who fired was in fact an eight year veteran, not a poorly trained rookie.
These agents believed they were in immanent peril.
Here is something else interesting:
"The [CBP officer] pushed them both away and one of the females ran to a male, later identified as 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a US citizen," the report said. "The [CBP officer] attempted to move the woman and Pretti out of the roadway. The woman and Pretti did not move. The [CBP officer] deployed his oleoresin capsicum (OC) spray towards both Pretti and the woman."
CBP agents then "attempted to take Pretti into custody," according to the report.
"Pretti resisted CBP personnel's efforts and a struggle ensued. During the struggle, a BPA yelled, 'He's got a gun!' multiple times," the report said.
"Approximately five seconds later, a [Border Patrol agent] discharged his CBP-issued Glock 19 and a [CBP officer] also discharged his CBP-issued Glock 47 at Pretti. After the shooting, a BPA advised he had possession of Pretti's firearm," CBP added. "The BPA subsequently cleared and secured Pretti's firearm in his vehicle."
The new information provided by CBP differs from the initial accounts offered by the Department of Homeland Security, which said in a statement over the weekend that one Border Patrol agent had fired "defensive shots."
In that statement, DHS also said Pretti "approached" the CBP agents with a 9mm semi-automatic firearm. But CBP's report to Congress makes no claim that Pretti tried to reach for his firearm
Notice that FIVE SECONDS LATER the Border Patrol Agent came up with the gun, not before the shooting. That is critical; it means there was a live firearm in the possession of the struggling Pretti when he was shot.
This article tries very hard to divert your attention from that fact by discussing the claim the report does not mention Pretti pointing the gun but the very fact he was struggling and had the gun is ebough to satisfy the law that this was a justified shooting by the Border Patrol. (CBS News is using the magician's trick of misdirection in this article to make it appear the agents did something wrong. If you are armed and struggling with law enforcement it is assumed BY LAW that you are guilty and pose a danger, but See B.S. doesn't want you to know that.)
The article also lies by omission:
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara has said Pretti was a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry.
This is a subtle lie but a lie nonetheless. Yes, Pretti had a concealed carry permit (I assume; haven't actually been able to verify that) but so what? He is required BY MINNESOTA LAW to have that permit on his person while carrying, and he did not do so. Also, there are strict protocols he is supposed to follow in an interaction with law enforcement. He neglected to do so.
Also he was carrying two clips, enough to kill a lot of people.
Then there is this:
It also revealed that U.S. Customs and Border Protection personnel removed and stored Pretti's firearm in a government vehicle, a decision now raising broader concerns about the integrity of the investigation.
According to a CBP report sent to congressional officials, a Border Patrol agent reported taking possession of Pretti's gun immediately after the shooting and later clearing and securing the firearm inside a vehicle. The report does not specify whether the weapon was photographed in place or logged with a documented chain of custody at the scene.
CBS News previously reported that federal investigators have no documented chain of custody for Pretti's handgun, with officials saying the firearm was placed on the seat of a vehicle rather than sealed in a required plastic evidence bag and labeled with standard identifying details such as date, item description, and handler name.
I suppose they were supposed to stop life-saving efforts on Pretti while they tagged and bagged the gun on the scene, a chaotic scene?
The fact is CBS news has no way of knowing whether this is true or not; they are simply making allegations here. They know there is now way to verify this claim.
CBS is trying to gin up rage, to make this look like the Boston Massacre that, well, didn't start the Revolutionary War but certainly added to the anger that led to it. And they are lying.
As far as I can tell these agents acted lawfully and made the best decision they could in a life-or-death situation that required a split second to make. It is only an issue because so many want it to be. Had the Minneapolis police been present they could have dealt with Pretti and the woman he was helping to violate the agent's lawful orders when he was shot, but the Governor and the police chief issued stand down orders. If any authority is to blame it's Walz. Pretti's blood is on HIS hands, not on the hands of the agents involved.

Dem. AG Candidate Calls for Execution of Trump; not an Outlier but a Bellwether
Timothy Birdnow
Leftists seem to be buffoons until they acquire power then they start executing people. We should take this guy at his word.
This is exactly what the Left intends to do to us - murder us to shut our mouths and punish their enemies. This is what communists always do in the end.
Don't just laugh this off as hyperbole; these people are serious about doing this. And we let them get so close to the levers of power that now they are about to go full Bolshevik.
From the Western Journal article:
Democrat Elliot Forhan, a candidate for Ohio attorney general, shredded his nonexistent credibility by vowing to "kill Donald Trump” in a chilling campaign video released Tuesday.
While Forhan tried to soften his death threat with frivolous legalese, his violent, treasonous intent was clear.
The former Ohio state representative’s assassination pledge ignited a social-media frenzy, with numerous people demanding his arrest.
This MAY mean the end of his campaign but it's a tip of a large iceberg. It is just a matter of his saying the quiet part out loud; a lot of his fellow Democrats would be willing to implement his program.
The Secret Service should investigate this guy; making threats against the President MUST be taken seriously - especially when coming from a political rival.
After eight years of Obama and four of Biden and the first Trump Administration being paralyzed by endless lies and investigations and Covid the leftists thought they had won, that it was just a mop-up operation at this point. Trump's election horrified them and now they are showing their true face. They know that this is for all the marbles.
And they weren't wrong; the GOP had no stomach for stopping them before Trump and likely will have none again once Mr. Trump is out. America was well on it's way to being a soviet republic. We just kept the rhetoric and facade of a free nation but they had systematically taken control over all of our institutions, including the most American of them - the Boy Scouts, the churches, the military and military organizations, etc. They had every reason to believe they had won. And they would have won had any other person won the Presidency in 2016 and in 2024. The hiatus during Biden's Presidency only illustrated the corruption and the invisible hand became quite visible. That was because the Demo-left were desperate to nail down their communist utopia before America could rebel and so Biden's Autopen went way too far too quickly and the public rebelled. But of course they still own the media and too many Americans don't understand the true nature of this, but rather think in terms of how things effect them only. They get mad at inflation but don't worry about WHY we have inflation. They wanted fewer aliens in the country but are easily convinced that enforcement efforts is somehow Gestapo tactics. They want cheaper housing but don't want to end the subsidies and other things that drive up the prices. Basically Americans are lazy and don't want to know how the sausage is made. They are easily tricked, as the souring of Americans on ICE after this shooting proves.
So now we have a candidate for Attorney General in a traditionally Republican state calling for the murder of the President under the banner of Bolshevism and the few Americans who even learn about this will dismiss him as a kook when in fact he represents the base of his party. This is where this is leading - the Gulag, public show trials, public executions, assassinations, and murder and mayhem. Ask any of the people who grew up under Communism before the Soviet Union fell about it; they know how bad it will be. America is slipping into Communism as we speak and if we don't take strong action to stop it we will enjoy the fruits of it, which include extreme poverty for everyone but the ruling class, starvation, abuse of the public, both physical and psychological, lies and murders.
This guy isn't an outlier; he's a bellweather.

Fake Attack on Ilhan Omar
Timothy Birdnow
Ilhan Omar was attacked recently at a townhall meeting and sprayed with an unidentified substance. While this attack should be condemned in the strongest terms one must wonder at the veracity of the whole thing. There are odd things about the whole event.
Video shows her appearing to nod toward the attacker just before it happened. And she did not seek ANY medical treatment, even though there was no way of knowing what the substance that was squirted on her might be. It could be a biological agent, or a poison of some sort, yet she refused medical care.
We know the Left isn't above faking attacks; just as Jussie Smollett.
Police caught the alleged attacker (and in this case we most definitely call it alleged) but are not releasing names and are saying they can't charge him (!) because he did not inflict bodily harm.
This thing stinks to high heaven.
And since Omar herself is unwilling to press charges and file a police report I assume nobody is facing charges for lying to the police. There is no crime in staging a fake attack as far as I am aware.
So we have yet another blood libel by the radicals against our side and probably nothing will come of it - but some minds may well be changed among the squishy moderates.
IF this guy was MAGA he was an utter fool, but that's why we haven't been given his name.
I would add the attack has been roundly condemned, even by people like Nancy Mace and other MAGA types. Funny how the Left wouldn't even condemn the murder of Charlie Kirk when it happened.
As the election approaches we will see more and more of this kind of fake hate blamed on Trump and MAGA. He's got to get out front on this.
I would thin the FBI can investigate this; it involves a sitting Congresswoman after all. Are you out there Kash Patel?

Dem's Threaten to Impeach Noem
Timothy Birdnow
Knock yourselves out!
If the Democrats could successfully impeach her they could successfully impeach Trump himself - and would have done so before now. They don't have the numbers.
The only worry would be Republican turncoats joining them out of fear. There is no more timid a creature than a Washington Republican. They make fainting goats seem positively bold.

We Keep Getting Suckered
Timothy Birdnow
Alex Pretti, the man who was shot by ICE agents when he was interfering with a lawful arrest operation, had broken a rib in a previous altercation with ICE just a couple of weeks prior.
Don't tell me this guy wasn't there to make trouble.
It's not Alex Jones or The Gateway Pundit saying this - it's CNN.
Meanwhile Citizen's Free Press posted a series of links calling for the firing of Christi Noem and other calls for retreat (where is Charlie Kirk when you need him; his staff is whimping out). Among the links is this Wall Street Journal article calling for Trump to pull back in Minnesota - and there were 5,000 comments on the article, all critical but none critical from OUR perspective. It was a leftie fisk of the WSJ.
Now the WSJ has always wanted open borders and is not happy about kicking all these aliens out. But that's not the point I wanted to make. My point is that I posted a commebt up with ease, and that means these five thousand leftist comments are NOT coming from regulars but are probably being posted by AI. Rush Limbaugh researched that sort of thing years ago and found that computer technology was used by the Left to make it appear there were enormous upswells of popular outrage over events when in fact it was just a handful of guys (and Rush actually identified them, one was a college professor). I suspect these comments were made by AI and are designed to frighten Republicans into backing off of the enforcement policy that is trying to evict criminal illegal aliens.
The could do it because of the open message board policy of the Wall Street Journal.
Citizen's Free Press seems to have fallen for this hook, line, and sinker. I seriously doubt Charlie Kirk would have fallen for it.
This is a common practice in warfare; make your side seem much bigger than it is. Genghis Khan did it all the time, putting scarecrows on horses and parading them past the walls of a city he was besieging. George Washington used to do this when retreating from the British Army; he would have just a few men lighting fires and making noise in camp while he quietly snuck his troops away.
That is what I think is happening now with much of this, and our side is falling for it. If we lose this we lose the President and we lose America.
Our side has got to learn the way the Left operates and stop believing what the media tells us. But we keep getting suckered.

Death by Stupidity
This from Lyle Hancock
I am licensed to carry concealed in 38 states. I've gone through extensive training and qualifications. I spent hours learning to not do what this person did. When carrying, he is held to a higher standard and is required to cooperate with any law officer in a way that reassures the officer that he is not a threat.
Several years ago, I was a witness to a crime. I stayed until the investigating officer was ready to question me. As he approached, I placed my hands on my head and advised the officer that I was carrying concealed and I will follow his instructions. He said, "thank you, now put your hands down, I just have a few questions." He did not ask for me to show him my gun. He didn't seem to care. He just came over and we talked. Had Pretti made an effort to cooperate, he would still be alive.
People want to play armchair quarterback and pretend that they have greater situational awareness than the highly trained officers. They don't. In an altercation, the officers are justified to shoot him upon discovery that he is armed. The reason? If he got his arm free, it would take less than two seconds for him to pull the weapon and kill one or more officers. They can't take that chance, especially if he is still struggling with them. He's dead because he was stupid.

Signal Chat Suggests Walz is Involved in the Rioting
Jack Kemp
DUH. No kidding. You know, those fancy gas masks of theirs cost a lot...
Fay Voshell adds:
Basically, Minnesota has seceded from the United States and is trying to justify its secession by using the courts as its imprimatur.
Other blue states will follow if Minnesota wins, and we will be further engaged in a civil war.
The Trump administration needs to cut the head off the snake.

The Constitution Grants Trump the Power to Enforce the Law in Minnesota
Timothy Birdnow
Dana Mathewson forwards this from Powerline. Apparently Minnesota is arguing in court (in front of a Clinton-appointed judge) that the Tenth Amendment allows them to kick ICE and other Federal Agents out of their state because, like, Federalism and junk!
This is beyond ridiculous. The Tenth Amendment (which the left ignores all the time) is only valid where the Constitution does not specify a power it is expressly granting the federal government. Control of immigration and enforcing the law are both specified as a power of the United States. They don't have a legal leg to stand on (but that never stops the Left).
The Supremacy Clause says federal law trumps state law, and the 14th amendment, which is the basis of "birthright citizenship" says in section one that a person born or NATURALIZED in the United States is a citizen. It says nothing about illegal aliens. And section five of the amendment says the federal government can make laws to facilitate that amendment as needed and they trump state laws. That means immigration laws.
And the power to regulate immigration is vested in the U.S.
The federal government's authority to regulate immigration is primarily vested in the Constitution's Naturalization Clause (Article I, Section 8) and Commerce Clause (Article I, Section 8). In fact the Democrats sued Arizona under Obama for passing a law identical to the Federal statutes and thus using state police to enforce these laws - and Obama won in court. The court agreed that immigration enforcement is a federal matter and the state can only offer assistance to the feds when requested.
This is a no-brainer; Minnesota has nary a legal leg to stand on here.
If Minnesota wins the Trump Administration should cut off ALL federal funds to the state. None of those funds are in the Constitution either. Fair is fair. Of course Walz and Ellison will sue in court to force Trump to keep the spigot flowing and will argue against the very argument they are making here. But when do we ever expect consistency from liberals?
