Every election cycle, super-rich, out-of-touch white Dem politicians try to convince us that they’ve got some mega magical connection with minority voters. They claim to understand minority struggles, speak their language, and know exactly what these communities need. How do they know this? Well, nobody’s known until now. Apparently, wealthy white liberals understand black voters because they also have low SAT scores and can’t read.Yes, you heard that right.
Gavin Newsom just announced this to the world.
At an event that was supposed to focus on outreach to black voters, Newsom twisted himself into a pretzel, trying to present himself as relatable to black folks. Instead, Gavin wandered
The death of Jesse Jackson, who got his start lying about holding MLK’s body in his arms, shaking down companies with fake racism accusations to get franchises for his sons, and subsidize his affair and his out-of-wedlock baby, has given a boost to his criminal son.
Jesse Jackson Jr, a former Obama campaign co-chair, had been busted and sent to prison for making off with $750,000 in campaign cash and spending over $10,000 on Michael Jackson memorabilia, including $8,500 on two fedoras, not to mention $800 on a mink cashmere cape, is relaunching a campaign for his old House seat in Chicago, while exploiting his father’s death.
Gavin Newsom, California’s golden-boy governor and likely 2028 White House hopeful, recently decided to “bond” with a black audience in Georgia.
Newsom proclaimed, “I’m not trying to impress you. I’m just trying to impress upon you, I’m like you. I’m no better than you. You know, I’m a 960 SAT guy. And I’m not trying to offend anyone, trying to act all there if you got 940. But literally, a 960 SAT guy. I cannot — you’ve never seen me read a speech because I cannot read a speech. Maybe the wrong business to be in.”
The O’Keefe Media Group went undercover at CattleCon in Nashville, Tennessee, and exposed how Tyson, JBS, Cargill and National Beef secretly control America’s beef market.
In November, President Trump said cattle prices were falling while beef prices kept rising and launched an investigation into price manipulation.
Trump directed the DOJ to investigate the meat packing companies who are driving up the prices through illicit collusion, price fixing and price manipulation. The O’Keefe Media Group went undercover at CattleCon and ranchers spilled the beans on how the “Big Four” control the beef industry.
Los Angeles City Council members are poised to vote Tuesday on roughly $177 million in fast-tracked contracts, funneling taxpayer cash to a tight circle of powerful tenant-advocacy nonprofits — including groups that have repeatedly sued the city.
The package, championed by lefty mayoral hopeful Councilmember Nithya Raman, would lock in three-year deals financed largely by Measure ULA’s mansion-tax revenue. The money will primarily be used to run tenant eviction defense and homelessness-prevention programs.
A Declaration of Arrest Report, issued by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department in connection with the detention of Ori Solomon on January 31, states that there is a "deeper conspiracy" between an illegal biological lab in Reedley, California and a residence containing apparently dangerous substances in Nevada.
Fortunately, in California, Code Enforcement Officer Jesalyn Harper in December 2022 noticed a garden hose connected to a supposedly abandoned building. She entered the structure and discovered what appears to have been a secret biological weapons laboratory. Inside, Harper found Chinese nationals working in white coats.
Streaming giant Netflix is planning a Trumpian charm offensive on the heels of some very anti-MAGA comments made by one of its board members and as it faces heightened scrutiny from White House antitrust regulators over its planned purchase of Warner Bros. Discovery’s streaming and studio units, The Post has learned.
The maneuvers come as Paramount Skydance submitted its last and final offer for WBD on Sunday, said sources with knowledge of the matter. The company previously weighed taking its bid up to around $32 a share.
In Netflix land, the planned meetings, which have yet to be reported,
Next month the most important political book of the year, or perhaps the decade, will be published. It is called The Information State: Politics in the Age of Total Control. The author is Jacob Siegel, a journalist for the Tablet.
To summarize: shocked by the arrival of Donald Trump in 2016, American government officials, the media, and the technology giants created a system of censoring the public, spying on other opponents, and planting false stories. The media was complicit and will never fully recover.
Trump’s rise, Siegel writes, “meant that politics had become war, as it is in many parts of the world,
Polls show that more than eight of 10 voters want President Trump to focus on the economy in his State of the Union speech.
That’s a good idea, and Trump should tout a series of amazing economic and financial accomplishments. Stock market at near all-time highs, inflation cut in half, real incomes up, middle class savings from the big beautiful tax bill, gas prices down, and energy production up. Private employment is up, while government employment is down. Retirement savings for American families (including 401k plans) are up almost $22,000 on average, more than reversing the losses from the Biden years when runaway inflation
California's progressives must really hate children. I don't know how else to explain this one.
One of the dumber laws passed in California (and that's saying something) over the past decade is one designed to give parole hearings to elderly convicts. Initially, anyone who has served more than 25 years and was over 60 years old was given a second chance at freedom whether they deserved it or not. And the law led to absurd results like this one from way back in 2019:
Victims of the notorious “Ski Mask Rapist” thought they could close the book on him after he was sentenced to more than 400 years in prison
Former British Ambassador to the US Lord Peter Mandelson, who was fired over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office, police in London said Monday.
The ex-diplomat, 72, was seen being led out of his London home by cops Monday afternoon after he was accused of leaking sensitive British government intelligence to the pedophile financier.
Mandelson, who infamously appeared in the Epstein files in just his underwear and a T-shirt, looked stony-faced as he was put in the back of an unmarked car. Mandelson, the UK business secretary at the time, allegedly tipped off Epstein about potentially market-
Homeless nonprofit boss who drove around
with ‘trunk full of jewelry’ hit with
felony fraud charges replies
with ‘trunk full of jewelry’ hit with
felony fraud charges replies
The former head of a San Francisco homeless charity has been charged with stealing money intended to help struggling locals avoid homelessness — to fund a “lavish” lifestyle that included luxury cars and trunks full of jewelry.
Gwendolyn Westbrook, who was CEO of United Council of Human Services, allegedly grifted more than $1.2 million in public funds — after the organization received tens of millions in government grants over the past 20 years. Prosecutors allege the 71-year-old nonprofit boss skimmed funds through cash withdrawals, payments to herself and improper reimbursements for her personal use.
She directly stole $91,000 from the organization and additional funds once held by the charity are “unaccounted for,”
The foaming-at-the-mouth, anti-Trump, leftist actor appeared Monday on an MS NOW podcast hosted by liberal commentator Nicolle Wallace and railed about Trump, seemingly the only topic he is able to talk about any more. He blasted Trump calling. him, “sadistic” and “cruel,” mocked Trump as “triggered” by “real men” with “displays of actual strength.”
The actor went on to explain, “He knows he’s never experienced or displayed anything like that in his life” — referring to Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) flying combat missions decades ago. De Niro, apparently, has forgotten about Trump getting shot in the ear in Butler, PA, and instead of immediately retreating with his security,
Worse, the report, created by an outfit calling itself Cyabra, is directly linked to Minaj’s rival rappers Jay-Z and Cardi B. The Cyabra report claims that Minaj’s social media reach is created by an “inauthentic amplification” of her political views on her X account. The group also insists that Minaj employs 18,000 fake bot accounts, aimed at amplifying Minaj’s recent pro-Trump political posts on social media.
“Over a two-month period, Cyabra conducted a targeted analysis of engagement activity on Nicki Minaj’s official X account (@nickiminaj), focusing on political-related posts and assessing the authenticity of the accounts interacting with them,” the group claims in the report.
I was once asked by my father—a couple of years ago—if there was a single Democrat in office whom I respected.
The answer was easy: Ro Khanna.
Obviously, I agree with Khanna on very few things and strongly oppose his positions on most public policy issues. But I thought Khanna was smart, honest, and well-meaning, and one of the few politicians who didn't lie his arse off all the time. I could see having a conversation with him without feeling the need for a long, hot shower.
Welp. Another one bites the dust.
Now that Khanna is obviously preparing to run for president, he has sold his soul to the devil,
One of the recurring themes of President Trump's Angel Families remembrance ceremony yesterday was how the Democrats and their media allies have ignored Angel Families and their plight for years.
White House Director of Communications and Assistant to the President Steven Cheung blasted the media yesterday for not covering the heartbreaking statements of the Americans who lost loved ones to criminal illegal aliens, calling it "sickening and horrific." [Tweets, video]
Cheung specifically called out CNN and MS NOW for refusing to broadcast the ceremony.
But CNN took it a step further and treated these Angel Families with pure, unadulterated contempt.
Remember that scene in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith when the Galactic Senate votes to give all-encompassing emergency powers to Emperor Palpatine?
That’s basically what will happen in Hawaii if a pair of emergency powers bills are passed. State lawmakers have advanced two bills that would empower the governor to declare an emergency and then order quarantines, enter private property, suspend existing statutes, regulate and seize firearms, and completely exterminate the Jedi order.
Okay, I made that last one up, but the fact remains: These bills are some of the scariest I’ve seen at any level of government lately.
Decades from now, when historians finish poring through the millions of Epstein documents and 300+ gigabytes of data, the uproar of today, I suspect, will be lumped into the same category as the Satanic panic of the 1980s and the daycare sex-abuse hysteria of the 1990s: More hype than substance; more conspiratorial fearmongering than fact-based reporting.
Because, after both Republican and Democratic administrations reviewed them, there’s just not any there there. Instead of an avalanche of evidence about foreign espionage, blackmail schemes, and Jeffrey Epstein being the James Bond of pedophilia, a far gloomier image emerges:
CNN Data Guru Warns Gavin Newsom Is ‘Flailing,’
2028 Dems a ‘Clown Car’ With ‘No
Clear Frontrunner’ replies
2028 Dems a ‘Clown Car’ With ‘No
Clear Frontrunner’ replies
CNN data analyst Harry Enten branded the early Democratic contest for the 2028 presidential election a “downright clown car” and “total mess” with “no clear frontrunner” – a point he noted was “very unusual” even at this early stage. (Snip) “Yeah, they’re all running and this is just a downright clown car at this point on the Democratic side,” Enten said, pointing to early polling that shows Newsom at 19%, followed closely by former Vice President Kamala Harris at 18%. “Quite a weak number for her, given that of course, she was the nominee last time around,” commented Enten. Former
It didn’t take long for opponents to attempt to diminish the most notable Olympic victory in decades. On Sunday, the US men’s hockey team secured the gold medal by defeating its archrival Canada. This occurred 46 years after the Miracle on Ice game, which was also the last Winter Olympics in which our hockey team won gold.
However, because liberals are often seen as misguided, anti-Trump, and worse, un-American, they tend to dampen the mood. The good thing is that there are few, so the rest of us patriots just laugh at them. This isn’t a time to rely on those worthless “whine like a b**ch” degrees. No way.
Three Cheers for CO2
replies
I have been following debates over global warming since the 1990s. In the early days, the oil companies defended themselves both by challenging the bad science underlying the global warming theory and by pointing out the benefits of increasing CO2 in the atmosphere. At one time I had a VHS documentary called “The Greening of Planet Earth” on that topic.
The benefits of CO2 are indisputable, as anyone who knows anything about photosynthesis–i.e. everyone who went to school before the collapse of recent years–will understand. The Sahara Desert is shrinking, while the rain forests are becoming more lush. That is the theme of this article by a NASA scientist: “Satellite
Occasional California Governor Gavin Newsom, who keeps turning up anywhere but California, has continued his highly calculated descent into vulgar and insulting behavior this week. The performance still has the awkwardness of the first week of acting school. It’s like watching a character play a character, many times removed from an identifiable real person. Whatever he’s doing, he’s definitely pretending.
Most people know Stephen Miller as the steely face of Donald Trump’s deportation push. But Miller has other jobs inside the West Wing; lots of other jobs. A given day might find Miller pressing to fix the dry, malfunctioning fountains in Washington, D.C., or to replace broken security cameras on the city’s streets, a senior administration official said. He is helping drive the president’s effort to force changes on college campuses meant to uproot what Trump believes is an embedded liberal culture. “He [Miller] wants to focus on it,” said Sen. Graham about Trump’s education agenda. “We need to do something about these universities, they’re just out of hand here.”
The highest court in Panama has nulled the ‘Chinese’ contract for the operation of both entrance ports on the Panama Canal. The Panamanian government took back control and assigned operations to APM Terminals, a subsidiary of the Danish group A.P. Moller-Maersk.The state takeover comes after a 14-month long saga begun by President Trump who reasserted American interests in the hemisphere and rejected the concept of allowing China to have strategic control over such vital North American infrastructure.
President Trump did not mince words in December of 2024 when he said, “[The Panama Canal] was not given for the benefit of others, but merely as a token
