Texas Shooter a Muslim
Timothy Birdnow
The Austin shooter was wearing a "Property of Allah" hoodie and had a Koran in his car, according to the FBI.
The gunman was a naturalized U.S. citizen, naturalized despite a string of crimes. He immigrated from Senegal during the Clinton Administration and was given citizenship under Obama.
When are we going to get serious about terrorism? We know who does it, and it isn't Mormons.

"This is an Illegal War"
This from Daniel Jupp:
This is an illegal war!
The difference between a war and air strikes enters the chat.
92,000 Obama bombs dropped on 7 different countries without a word of protest enters the chat.
Five decades of Iranian sponsorship of terrorism enters the chat
.
The difference between fake WMD’s cooked up by a spin doctor and a real nuclear weapons programme enters the chat.
The illegal war thing always makes me laugh. All the disastrous neocon ones were legal if your only criteria for that is a rubber stamp from the UN.
International law is a joke. The only people who regularly invoke it now are people who ignore the law at home and always back terrorists, criminals and evil causes then hide behind ‘international law’ like spoilt kids hiding behind mummy’s skirt.
I trust Trump not to get tied to a long disaster like Iraq.
I trust any action that offends both Owen Jones and Tucker Carlson to be the right one to take.
But the Woke Reich are right on one aspect of this. Obviously not the Jew hatred or the isolationism. But there is one sense where foreign battles have to be matched by winning at home.
It profits a man nothing to fight Islamic lunatics abroad if Islamic lunatics are running his own cities.
You have to deal with both to save the western world. The Islamic conquest is very advanced and you aren’t going to stop it unless you recognise what Manchester or Birmingham have become in the UK and what New York and Minnesota have become in the US.
By all means topple the mullahs….if you also intend to topple the Mamdani’s.

I'm with you 1000% with the idea of toppling the Mamdanis. If I had my way (and it's probably a good thing that I don't, at least all the time) I'd expand ICE's charter to sweep out all the Muslims in this country too. Which would actually be a shame, because there are a few good ones. There's a couple who live in our development, kitty-corner from us, who don't cause any problems (that I'm aware of) and who keep themselves, their children and their grounds clean and neat. OTOH, a school bus comes to take their kids to a non-standard school, and no good can come of that.

Climate Change Causes Hemorrhoids
Timothy Birdnow
This from Ken Elder:
I wonder if this is connected to climate change....
"Researchers report that people who use a smartphone while sitting on the toilet were more likely to have hemorrhoids than people who do not."
Mr. Birdnow replies:
But of course. We all know climate change causes droughts, and with droughts we have less water to drink. Less water means greater constipation. Couple that with smart phones, which give the constipate something to do there while he waits and voila!
See how easy it is to be one of the Gang Green!
BTW Climate Change doesn't cause hemorrhoids but the people promoting the theory do their best to act like them.

I think you've nailed it with your last sentence.
I used to suffer from those awful things, but a few years ago I had a nice "rear-end doctor" clean up the real-estate behind me and I've had no problems since. That was before I got my smartphone -- which I don't use when I'm sitting on the john, BTW.

I too suffer from them, but not so bad as to require treatment. I mostly get them after bouts of diarrhea.
I don't do anything on the crapper but, well, what the name implies. Never did get that whole reading magazines whil waiting thing..

Carbon - It's Not Just for Breakfast Anymore
Timothy Birdnow
Gee; I thought it was just human activity that discharged carbon dioxide into the atmosphere...
Turns out these peat bogs and swampy lakes in the Congo are belching more CO2 than Kamala Harris blows hot air.
From the article:
At the center of Africa, the Congo Basin contains one of the largest and most significant of these carbon reserves. Although its peatlands and swamps cover just 0.3 percent of the planet's land surface, they store about one third of all carbon held in tropical peatlands worldwide.
[...]
Ancient Carbon Released Into the Atmosphere
Measurements show that substantial amounts of carbon dioxide are escaping from both lakes into the atmosphere. However, the origin of that carbon was not what scientists anticipated.
While some of the emissions come from recently grown plant material, up to 40 percent of the carbon dioxide originates from peat that accumulated thousands of years ago in nearby ecosystems. Researchers determined this by analyzing the age of the dissolved CO2 using radiocarbon dating (radiocarbon dating).
"We were surprised to find that ancient carbon is being released via the lake," explains lead author Travis Drake, a scientist in the Sustainable Agroecosystem (SAE) group led by ETH Professor Johan Six. "The carbon reservoir has a leak, so to speak, from which ancient carbon is escaping," adds co-author Matti Barthel, research technician in SAE.
How Is the Carbon Being Mobilized?
Previously, scientists believed that carbon stored in Congo Basin peat remained locked away for extremely long periods and would only be released under specific conditions such as extended drought.
Exactly how this old carbon is being freed from undecomposed plant matter remains uncertain. Researchers also do not yet know the precise pathways that allow it to move from peat soils into lake water.
Sooooo
Turns out there are natural reasons for atmospheric carbon dioxide to rise that have nothing to do with human activity.
Oh, this article tries to tie the two, saying "climate change" is triggering this outgassing, but as we didn't even know that was possible until just now why would we believe that? This peat is buried very deep and the modest 1* of planetary warming is hardly going to impact that.
I wish people, especially science writers, would use a modicum of common sense with this stuff.

Dana, science writers are ESPECIALLY not immune from agendas. Some of the most biased, idiotic reporting you will find is in the science magazines. And even when it's not politically motivated it shoots for sensationalism over substance.

World in Crisis
This from Mike:
Aside from the democrats bankers whose cash flow is drying up, I wonder how many people realize that Trump is the most effective president to wage war on the drug suppliers. He has taken the heads from 3 of the snakes running drugs worldwide.
Russia is sending recruits straight from the recruiting office to the front lines. No supplies, no weapons, and above all no hope. Russia is drowning in the Ukraine quagmire.
China just last month purged 2 of its top senior experienced Generals arresting them and and their families. Seems they were getting a little to popular. How many more arrests were made only a few know that as the arrests probably are still continuing. China isnt as stable as we are being led to believe.
One of Trumps and Israels biggest obstacles were the oil producing Arab nations who fear what a free Iran will do to oil prices. They will lose considerable power if Iran is allowed to sell its oil on the free market.
The people of Iran are not the hardcore islamists that media wants you to believe they are. The majority are nonsecular, forced to bow down before an idol. One of the first places that the Iranian people attacked and burned were the mosques to the horror of the media who wouldnt report it. And thats hundreds of mosques across Iran. The people in Tehran were out on the streets in the hundreds tonight celebrating the death of their self made supreme leader. Not an IRGC, cop, or military trying to stop them.The IRGC is mainly composed of foreigners,aka mercenaries from islamist countries. We all need to Thank Jimmy Carter and the French for the IRGC after all they funded them because they didnt want to have to deal with the Shah. Actually they bought them from the Russians just to topple the Shah only for the IRGC to backstab them and buddy back up with the Russians.

Killing Cuba
Timothy Birdnow
This oil embargo was greatly enhanced by the capture of Maduro in Venezuela, Cuba's chief supplier of oil. Now Venezuela is exporting no oil to Cuba and power outages of several hours are an almost daily occurrence.
Recently the Cuban government attacked a boat carrying expatriated Cubans (who were likely going there to join in the soon to come revolution) and killed several. These were American citizens by naturalization or birth.
At any rate Rubio's policies are, of course, Trump's policies, but Little Marco knows how to approach this situation in a way Trump would never think of doing. He knows these people; his parents immigrated from there.
At any rate it's hard to make a communist country collapse because of the way they squeeze their citizenry, like an anaconda But in the end economics is a tyrant and if you cannot provide basic services or food you wind up with what happened in Germany just before the fall of the Berlin Wall, or in the Soviet Union. The Soviet rebellion began when peasants stormed a train to steal FOOD. They were starving.
The CIA analyst who predicted the fall of the U.S.S.R. was a man named Herb Myer. He was an American Thinker writer and I spoke with him on the phone a time or two, plus e-mailed with him. He told me he was eating lunch one day with one of the data collectors who casually mentioned "how about that raid on the train" and Herb had heard nothing about this. He immediately realized what it meant "My God! They're collapsing!" and he had to brief the Director of the CIA personally.
The point of this story is that when people are starving they will face guns and bombs and gulags. Better to risk dying than to let yourself die.
Cuba may well get to that point soon.
Nobody will miss the Communists there. And once they are gone another source of infection will be eliminated in a trouble spot.

Pakistan and Afghanistan at War
Timothy Birdnow
Pakistan's defense minister has just stated
they are at war with Afghanistan.
War is busting out all over it seems.
Seems Afghanistan has been harboring Jihadist types who have been waging war against Pakistan, and then the Afghanis aka the Taliban have been launching reprisals against Pakistan for going after these scumbags.
That didn't take long; ever since Joe Biden lost Afghanistan the Taliban has been in power, and they are a particularly grievous bunch of terrorist thugs. Pakistan, hardly a bunch of softies themselves, were too squishy for the Talibani it seems.
We ought to sent the Pakistanis some tools with which to polish off the Taliban for good. Let Pakistan run the place.

9th Circuit Says Trump Can Bust Public Unions
Timothy Birdnow
This is a big win that the media will not cover, or at least gloss over.
For those of you who don't speak Stuff-Shirtese, Defenstrate means literally "throw out a window" and is used to mean vacate or otherwise rid oneself.
In other words, a court of appeal said Trump can get rid of public sector unions.
And it was the infamous 9th Circuuit that made this ruling, too!
FTA:
A federal appeals court will allow the Trump administration to end collective bargaining rights for thousands of government employees, in a blow for public-sector unions.
The Ninth Circuit panel's decision allows the administration to proceed with an executive order that allows some federal agencies to cut union ties for national security reasons.
Six unions representing about 800,000 federal civilian employees sued the administration last year, alleging violations of the First Amendment. A lower court previously found that President Donald Trump's order was designed to retaliate against unions. However, the Ninth Circuit panel ended that preliminary injunction.
The panel noted that Trump's executive order, issued in March 2025, was "the largest single effort to date to exclude agencies and subdivisions from collective bargaining on national security grounds."
This would only apply to public unions and only in matters of national security.
The Republicans stupidly let the Democrats create public sector unions back in the seventies, blissfully unaware that the whole point of unionizing the federal workforce was to permanently tie them all to the Democrats. They have been an integral part of the Democrat machine for fifty years now.
And how can you possibly have a labor union for governmet employees? Who is "mamagement" who will negotiate on the behalf of taxpayers and voters? Look at it this way; imagine a labor union run by the corporation it is supposed to negotiate with. Everyone would say that is insane, yet nobody says it's insane to have two sides of the negotiation being on the same side.
That is why the Democrats are so eager to hire more and more people to work for the government; it means more people who will support growing government at every turn and spending more money because they want to make sure to get their snouts in the trough. And they will vote Democratic because the Democrats hate fiscal discipline and hate smaller government. It was a cog in the Democrat machine and always has been. Nothing more.
That's why SEIU - the Service Worker's union - is so radically left-wing and politically activist. Many of the protests and riots we've seen over the years were fomented and manned by SEIU activists.
Trump is trying to break that and God bless him for it! And now we have at least one appeals court that has agreed he can do it, at least for now. The court did not make a final determination on the legality of this but stayed a lower court ruling. This will wind up at SCOTUS and who knows which way they will Jump, with John Roberts and Amy Conehead Barrett on the court.

The Winds of War Blow into Persia
Timothy Birdnow
Looks like the Shiite has just hit the fan.
The U.S., along with Israel, launched a series of airstrikes against Iran to finish the work of taking out their nuclear sites and the Iranians - never trusted by their Sunni neighbors - hit five countries with U.S. bases, including Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan and Kuwait.
The Arab countries
are not happy, promising retaliation. Saudi Arabia vowed to give the U.S. it's full support, for example.
The U.S. opened the operations with cruise missiles and followed up with drones and other weaponry. No American servicemen were injured in the retaliatory strikes.
There is an historic opportunity to remove the theocracy of Iran once and for all; they have been the source of infection for the terrorism in the Middle East, and Mr. Trump has personal reasons to go after them as well as they have been caught plotting to assassinate him.
So we can degrade the Iranian's ability to project power outside of their border with this and we can further erode any respect the regime has inside Iran. But ultimately it is up to the Iranian People to overthrow the Mullahs and establish either a republic or reinstate the monarchy. Either of these would be preferable to what they have had to endure in their long national nightmare starting back in 1979.
If Iran is taken off the stage a number of things will happen. Funding will dry up for terrorist organizations like Hizbollah and Hamas, but also for ISIS and many others. This will mean the Palestinian Authority will be defunded and likely lose their grip on Palestine. It also means Russia loses a key ally in the region, and with the opening of Iran Asian oil and gas will be able to bypass Russian territory completely - now Iran and Russia control all territory between Asia and Europe save a tiny corridor through the Caucasus. This will make Russia far less important in terms of energy to the Europeans. This will also facilitate shipping in the Persian Gulf.
What will Iran do? They could potentially close the Strait of Hormuz, choking the movement of huge amounts of oil. Of course this will hurt THEM as much as it hurts us, and it is a measure of last resort, but they might just do it. That would spike the price of oil and don't think they haven't thought about how this will impact the American political system. The public will not be happy if gas prices shoot way up, and no dubt they will do it if this drags out into the late summer/early fall. That's why the moment to strike for the U.S. was now, and Trump knew it.
We could witness an historic realignment in the Middle East. The question is what will the Russians and Chinese do? Russia probably can't do much, but China may not sit idly by while events move that can impact them.
IF China wants to seize Taiwan this would be the time to do it. I doubt they will; patience will give them Taiwan in due course without a direct military conflict, but who knows what they are thinking there? Certainly the Chicoms will take some steps to benefit from this.
We are in a dangerous situation, no question, but this was an issue that had been ignored by all previous administrations and you can only kick a can down the road for so long before you run out of road.
Trump chose to strike now while Iran's ruling theocrats were struggling with serious domestic unrest. It was the time to take action. And it will not require boots on the ground. What it WILL require is that we airlift the Iranian rebels the supplies they need.
I had hoped when George W. Bush invaded Iraq he would rather have been pulling a fake and would invade Iran instead. Iran was and remains the real problem in the region. And after we invaded Iraq we allowed the Iranians to filter in Jihadist fighters, weapons, and all the things necessary to prosecute a nasty guerilla war. I was baffled at the time; why did we let them get away with that? Why weren't WE funneling in fighters, weapons, and materials to the Iranian opposition to overthrow the government there?
Because we listened to dimwits like Colon Bowel, er, Colin Powell, who said "you break it you buy it" a pithy line, certainly but not really true. We could have just broken it and left a strong leader in charge. He might be a thug but he'd be OUR thug. Instead we played these silly games about nation-building and democratizing a region with no experience or interest in that. We thought we could prove we were good guys by building hospitals and schools but the populace just thought we were panzies, buying their support with our filthy Western values. That's how Muslims think. We insulted them by much of what we did in Iraq and in Afghanistan.
As I said at the time, you have to first win the war. Then you can win hearts and mibds all you want AFTER the enemy knows he is defeated. Until that point you haven't won anything and won't.
So Trump can bomb Iran and aid the rebels but he has to stay off the ground there. Many Iranians who see us as friends now will turn against us if we try to go in with troops. Nobody wants foreign fighters on their soil.
This is going to be an interesting spring.

Biden Brags about His Handling of Illegal Immigration
Timothy Birdnow
One of the things about liberal Democrats is their being completely divorced from reality. Take Joe Biden.
Yes, he actually bragged that he was good on the border issue.
Here is the jaw-dropping remark:
"Despite everything you read, despite the fact that COVID drove migration to record levels all around the world, the day I left office, border crossings into the United States were lower than the day that I entered that office”
Uh, COVID REDUCED immigration, it did not increase it. THAT was the only thing that kept the numbers from being even higher.
As the NY Post article points out:
An average of about 2.4 million migrants poured into the country every year of Biden’s only term in office — most crossing into the US illegally.
In the first three months of Biden’s stint in the White House, the surge in border crossings had already surpassed any record from the previous Trump administration.
The former president only moved to shut the border near the tail end of the 2024 campaign.
And if he was stopping illegal immigration why was he flying illegals into the country? And why to red states like Florida or Texas? Why did he do nothing to pressure Mexico into stopping those caravans?
The reality is we were overrun during his Administration and now he hopes to rehabilitate his legacy. And he will if the MAGA movement falters; eventually, like Jimmy Carter, the media will make him into a good man, a solid President overwhelmed by events outside of his control. They did that with Carter (which was not true) and they will try to do that with Biden. As things stand now Biden was the worst President in American history. But once the revisionism gets into full swint that honor will be handed to Donald J. Trump, even if he finds a cure for old age.

Hillary Probably Perjured Herself
Timothy Birdnow
Hillary Clinton may well have committed perjury in her testimony to Congress over Jeffrey Epstein.
"I had no idea about their criminal activities. I do not recall ever encountering Mr. Epstein. I never flew on his plane or visited his island home or offices,”
Sounds kind of like "I tell you I do not know the man!" from St. Peter when he denied Jesus, doesn't it? In this case she's denying her own husband, whom she threw under the bus during questioning "you have to ask Bill" she repeated several times.
And she said she only knew Ghislaine Maxwell as a "casual acquaintance.
BUT both Ghislaine and Epstein set up the Clinton Global Initiative and Ghislaine was a guest at the Clinton's daughter Chelsea's wedding. The Clintons stayed at Epstein's Zorro ranch, in addition to Bill's many visits to "slave island".
Hillary said "I don’t know how many times I had to say I didn’t know Jeffrey Epstein,” to reporters afterwards "I tell you I do not know the man!"
According to the Daily Mail the Clintons
were regulars at the Zorro Ranch although they didn't stay at the main house but in the "cowboy town" Epstein had built for guests.
How do you stay at a man's property and not know him? I mean, who accepts free vacations from a person and not actually speak with them?
Of course it is conceivable Hillary didn't know Epstein, but unlikely. As I say, she threw Bill under the bus as he is now on the hot seat; he HAD to know who and what Epstein was and what he was doing. And I rather doubt he keeps much from Hillary.
I think it is possible to find some witness who will say she saw Hillary with Epstein (after all, she was a Presidential contender and there is no way Epstein would have avoided her given the beneficial nature of THAT relationship) and then they have her for perjury. But of course witnesses will be exquisitely aware of the tendency of Hillary whistleblowers to meet with untimely ends...
The Republicans need to keep digging. There is a terrible stench here.
BTW Hillary actually had the gall to say this is a witch hunt to distract from Donald Trump! What a piece of work!

Deep State Spied on Kristi Noem at DHS
Timothy Birdnow
If you think spying on Trump people ended with Biden you are sadly mistaken.
This is what they meant about "Trump-proofing" the machinery of government when they spoke of it before the transfer of power.
Kristi Noem told the PBD podcast:
"I just found the other day a whole room on this campus that was a secret SCIF — secure facility — that had files nobody knew existed. So we just happened to have an employee walk by a door and wonder what it was and started asking questions. We went in there. There was individuals working there that had secret files that nobody knew about on some of these most controversial topics."
[...]
"Elon (Musk) and his team were extremely helpful to me. They helped me identify that some of my own employees in my department had downloaded software on my phone and my laptop to spy on me, to record our meetings. They had done that to several of the politicals."
Now what did they hope to find by spying on Noem and her deputies? They were undoubtedly looking for anything they could leak to the media to destroy her.
This is proof of the existence of the Deep State, as Noem observes:
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem claims her own staff was spying on her — before Elon showed up.
Though the Department of Homeland Security has achieved some success in deporting illegal aliens, it has always been met with resistance — both on the street and in the department itself.
In an interview with podcaster Patrick Bet-David this week, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem revealed the depth of some of the problems her department has been facing and the people who have helped her fight the alleged corruption.
'They helped me identify that some of my own employees in my department had downloaded software on my phone and my laptop to spy on me.'
"You wouldn't even believe what I've found since I've been in this department," Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said on the "PBD Podcast" this week.
"I just found the other day a whole room on this campus that was a secret SCIF — secure facility — that had files nobody knew existed. So we just happened to have an employee walk by a door and wonder what it was and started asking questions. We went in there. There was individuals working there that had secret files that nobody knew about on some of these most controversial topics."
And that's not all:
Noem also claimed that her devices were compromised but that Elon Musk's tech team helped expose the software that was compromising her privacy.
"Elon and his team were extremely helpful to me. They helped me identify that some of my own employees in my department had downloaded software on my phone and my laptop to spy on me, to record our meetings. They had done that to several of the politicals."
So who are these people and why haven't they been arrested yet? Who is organizing them? Funding them? How do they manage to operate so freely?
The fact is we have had a shadow government in this country for a long time and it only became obvious during the Obama era and patently obvious during the Biden era as they became emboldened to the point of no longer really trying to hide. But we never elected any of these people and they have no right to do what they are doing yet here we are. How many elections have these people tampered with? How many policies we voted for have they annulled?
It's a rat's nest and it must be cleaned out and soon, because time is not on our side. They can and probably will just wait us out (as the Left always does) and be back in the driver's seat as soon as President Trump steps out the door of the White House for the last time.
I wouldn't mind so much if they were actually serving our interests but they are parasites who are destroying the country, globalists who see themselves as "citizens of the world' rather than Americans. They take our tax money and blow it on leftist stupidity as part of their quest to establish a new world order.
Heads need to roll. Oh, and once again, God bless Elon Musk!

Manipulapoll
Timothy Birdnow
I have just one word for this - bullshit.
This Emerson poll says that, despite a series of wins by the President, a lower-than expected inflation and jobs report, and a triumphant State of the Union address as well as a quieting in the Minnesota protests Trump's disapproval rating (note they talk about his "disapproval rating" not his approval rating) has climbed.
According to the article:
President Donald Trump's disapproval rating increased by 4% in the latest survey conducted by Emerson College Polling.
Trump is reported to have a 55% disapproval rating in the February poll published on Thursday (February 26), having previously had a 51% disapproval rating in January. The president was, however, reported to have the same 43% approval rating in January and February, according to the poll.
How? What has happened since January?
They have trotted this thing out because Trump is gaining ground in other polls and they had to find a way to stop that bandwagon, nothing more.
Then there is this:
"Hispanics disapprove of the job the president is doing, 58% to 37%, a significant shift after reporting a near-split rating last month (43% approve to 45% disapprove) following the administration’s military action in Venezuela,” said Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling. "These numbers reflect the broader downward trend previously observed among Hispanic voters.
Again this poll makes assertions but no effort is made to explain WHY this sudden drop in approval among Hispanics. In point of fact there are no reasons whatsoever for this to be happening.
And it is at odds with a recent Trafalgar poll I cited
here which shows Trump at 50.k8% while his disapproval rating is just 46.7%. His "strongly approve rating is at 47.1%, according to Trafalgar.
So one of these polls is way off. Now which one do you think it might be?
The purpose of this is., as I just stated, to try to steal the wind from the Trump sail. It is designed to get the GOP to turn skittish (and that usually works for them) and to encourage the Democrats, who are pretty demoralized. But what it does NOT do is reflect the thinking of the people.
And Trafalgar has been far more accurate in reflecting the will of the People than has Emerson over the last few years.
I do not believe this poll nor any of the others which show Trump seriously under water. But even if he is in the end the public will have to face accepting Trump or choose the Democrows, who have shown themselves to be insane and completely radicalized, and in the end I suspect the public will choose MAGA over that.

Timothy Birdnow
Tim Walz has been
giving extended leave to rioters who have been injured while harrrssing ICE, and they have been enjoying 12 week vacations on the taxpayer dime.
You can't make this stuff up.
This is how the Left succeeds; they use our own money against us.

CNN in Panic over Plan to Debank Illegals
Timothy Birdnow
This is how you do it; take away their ability to access the benefits of American society.
The deliciousness of this is this is exactly what the Biden Administration tried to do to Conservatives, who were native born citizens. They wanted to strip our ability to bank, to obtain loans and mortgages and otherwise financially destroy us. Now we are doing it to illegal aliens who have no business being here in the first place and CNN is freaking out because they know what this means. They were all for it when using it against US.
Not only would this defund illegal aliens it will close a lucrative avenue for money laundering that has been ongoing for years. Democrats were enjoying the fruits of this in Minneapolis, for instance, where Somali immigrants were stealing vast sums of money from taxpayers for "daycare" and laundering it to Somalia, and ultimately to the Democratic Party. Debanking them would make such an enterprise untenable and the good people at CNN know it, which is why they are so upset.
Banks have been partners in money-laundering of taxpayer dollars for years now. They have done that to stay on the good side of government regulators. Now those same regulators are no longer in the service of the Democrat's political machine.
This should have been done during the George W. Bush administration frankly. Bush let the Democrats build a vast political machine which scammed almost every aspect of our society, from illegal alien votes to vote fraud systems to laundering tax dollars to fund the political campaigns of Democrats and he just let them do it. He should have known better; Bill Clinton had been one of the architects of this machine and it almost cost Bush the election of 2000. After they lost they vowed never again and so really ramped up the system. It cost Trump his re-election. Had the Democrats run anyone but Hillary it would have cost him his first election too.
Political machines are extremely difficult to beat. And rarely are they broken up.
Trump is making a full court press, trying to break up the Democrat's political machine. It's not easy. It requires attacks on multiple fronts, from polling companies to banking to immigration to big pharma and big tech. It involves universities and teacher's unions. It involves governments great and small. We as a nation never realized just how vast the machine truly was. Now we are learning and it's staggering.
So Trump is trying to break it and that job won't get done in a few years. But it's a good start.
If we had truly free and fair elections in America Democrats would never get elected. The GOP really is the majority party. Well, actually MAGA is and the GOP struggles with kissing rear ends and doing what the base wants. But they are more likely to actually be elected than Democrats. Sadly they let the Democrats sew up the whole system and now Trump is trying to break the stranglehold.
This is certainly a good start.

No doubt that will be so Dana. What the GOP has never learned to do is have friendly groups file in friendly courts before the Democrats get there to get a favorable ruling on record first. But they never do - the just react. That's all the Republicans ever do. Trump is the only guy with an R behind his name who takes the fight to the enemy.

(D)UMSL is Woke in Missouri
Timothy Birdnow
Open, blatant discrimination at the University of Missouri St. Louis.
UMSL is just down the road from downtown Ferguson.
The sad thing is this university is not under the control of St. Louis but of the state of Missouri, which is and has been solidly in the hands of the GOP.
From the Legal Insurrectionists:
It’s always of interest when we find open discrimination at public universities in red states that have taken a hard line on DEI. Our most recent filing was just such a case, on February 26, 2026, was against the University of Missouri – St. Louis (UMSL).
From the Civil Rights Complaint filed with the Office for Civil Rights of the U.S. Department of Education:
We bring this civil rights complaint against the University of Missouri – St. Louis (UMSL) for offering, administering, and promoting twelve (12) scholarships that discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, and/or sex in violation of Title VI and Title IX, respectively….
The scholarships listed below are currently offered to UMSL students and applicants for admission, according to the UMSL website, and violate Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ("Title VI”) and its implementing regulations4 by discriminating against students based on their race and skin color, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 ("Title IX”) and its implementing regulations5 by discriminating against students based on their sex, or both.6 Because UMSL is a public university, these discriminatory scholarships also violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
The article goes on to list these scholarships:
Rhonda Knehans-Drake Memorial Scholarship in Data Analytics
Preference given to underrepresented minority groups
Sauter, Vicki Endowed Scholarship in Information Systems and Technology
Preference given to underrepresented minority groups
Swain O’Leary Family Accounting Scholarship
Second preference given to underrepresented minority groups
John Works Memorial Scholarship in History
Recipient to be a member of an underrepresented minority, who identified as African or African American
Randy Sanderson Scholarship
Preference given to African American students
Jacobs/Sverdrup Engineering Scholarship
Preference given to minority and women students
Harriett Woods Leadership Scholarship
Preference given to female students
The Hazel L. Kohring Scholarship for Women in Transition
Candidates to be displaced female students 25 years old or older
University of Missouri – St. Louis Women Scholarship Fund
Preferred candidate is a female student
Women in Chemistry Scholarship
Preference given to female students 25 years old or older
Elisabeth Horkits Scholarship Fund
Primary consideration given to women
The Women of AT&T Foundation Endowed Scholarship
Preference given to female students
Why this desperation to bring women and minorities into fields? Why can't academia be satisfied with bringing the best and brightest into the fields and letting people work to that end? There is zero value in "diversity" as a goal of its; own.
When I was in college this whole "diversity" nonsense was gearing up and I knew then it was ridiculous. By "diversity" they meant minority, and of that only approved minorities. An Afrikaaner, say, would not make the cut as "diverse" because he was a white man. Neither would a Christian woman.
It has become so entrenched now that nobody ever bothers to question this assumption, that "diversity is our strength" when in fact diversity is rarely anybody's strength. America has done well DESPITE her diversity, and that because we always used to make people adopt American culture first. Now we don't and we are seeing the same problems that have plagued culturally diverse places like the Balkans.
That the state of Missouri would allow this is infuriating. What is the point of electing Republicans if they act like Democrats? Sadly Missouri's GOP are mostly RINO's and out for their own interests, little more. Few in the Missouri legislature actually try to move the ball forward. Heck; we can't even pass decent tax relief in this state, despite having all the branches of government and a supermajority in the legislature.
That's how you wind up with Democrats in control even when they are out of power; the Republicans are more about increasing their wealth than anything else.
Until we have men and women of character in office this will continue. Sadly I don't see many men or women of character stepping up to the plate, at least not here in the Shw Me State.

Another Activist Judge Makes a Bad Ruling
Timothy Birdnow
Judge KK has been a favorite of Democrats employing lawfare to gum up the works and she has ruled against Trump in many other immigration cases, such as his executive order to require proof of citizenship to vote.
While she holds her current position thanks to Bill Clinton she was originally appointed to the bench by Ronald Reagan in one of his poorer appointments. (Remember, Reagan gave us Sandra Day O'Connor, among other disasters.)
So now this rogue judge is saying our government cannot share information because, like, it's totally bogus and stuff.
If you are here illegally you do not have any expectation of privacy.
I would ask, where was she when the Biden Administration was spying on Suzies Wiles or Kash Patel? We never heard any concerns about privacy from her then.
Maybe KK should hook up with Judge Jams Boasberg? They are a match made in Heaven, if you ask me.

Heres a bad decision. A parole board in Ca. let a pedophile loose who was serving 4 life sentences for kidnapping and raping 6 and 7 yr old children because he was 65 and old. Ca. just told the victims to F off because the life old an old ped was more important than justice. Saw this on Gutfeld.

Jack Smith Eavesdropped on Suzie Wiles
Timothy Birdnow
Jack Smith and the FBI
secretly wiretapped Suzie Wiles, then a Trump aid and now Chief of Staff. Allegedly her attorney was aware they were listening but Suzie was not - the attorney denies this allegation (it is a serious offense that would lead to his disbarment at a minimum).
No judge would sing off on such an order; it violates the most basic protections offered to citizens. Conversations with your attorney are absolutely privileged.
The noose is tightening around Jack Smith's neck and I rather suspect he's going to be going to prison at some point. I hope fora along, long time; he's completely abused the public trust.

Is Spamberger a CIA Stooge?
Timothy Birdnow
Spamberger was a former CIA operative and we know the CIA has been meddling with American elections after all. Was she put in office by the CIA?

@DataRepublican
I already generated a dossier on Spanberger, but the most interesting part of it is that she is part of a cohort of 50+ military-intelligence veterans that have been recruited to run as Democratic candidates starting in 2018.
@SomeBitchIIKnow
first hypothesized this, but my new dossier pipeline independently captured them.
A Democrat retires. A CIA member takes over.
Spanberger is part of a much deeper, much more disturbing story here.

Well done! I have a request. At some point do the same for Abigail Spanberger. I believe she is much more likely to claim the 'moderate' lane in 2028, and I think this kind of deep dive would be 'interesting'.

Trump Approval Ratings High
Timothy Birdnow
According to Trafalgar Trump's approval rating is 50.k8% while his disapproval rating is just 46.7%. His "strongly approve rating is a whopping 47.1%.
This is well above average for this time in a President's term, either first or second.
Last year the media was crowing about Trump having low approval ratings, and even into this year. Trafalgar is one of the most accurate polling companies and they are saying Trump is slaying it.
