Trump’s Greatest Gambit?

Original Article

It has been unseasonably cold in Washington D.C. this spring. The blossoms on the cherry tree on my front lawn had barely bloomed when a cold snap and heavy wind-driven rain scattered the petals all over my front lawn. I stepped out front to pick up a box of herbs left there to be planted when a neighbor passed by. I don’t know him very well, but his virtue signaling was a rather good clue as to where his sympathies lay. His lawn was peppered with signs: ”Biden-Harris,” “Hate has no Home Here,” “Build Bridges not Walls,”

Sounds to me like a liberal actually told MS Feldman something similar, so she dramatized it. Excellent.

The Trump lost on purpose line is the best line to use if you come up against a die hard commie liberal Democrat. But after reading the entire column, I began to wonder who are Democrats going to vote for if at all. There is no real leadership in the Democrat Party! The titular head of the party is Oatmeal for Brains Biden. In the background are Obama and Hillary. Hillary is a loser and everyone Obama backed lost. Pelosi is losing it and Leaky Leahy is on his last legs. This nightmare can’t end soon enough. The next president, a Republican, whether Trump or De Santis, will have a huge mess to clean up in the FBI, CIA, NSA, Justice and State departments.

Good one, Clarice. Problem is, this nut job will never see the light and will vote Dim party forever. Insanity, at it's finest.

When you get down to the bottom line, what the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats, their operatives, and their media propagandists did through the fraudulent 2020 election was put in place a puppet President Biden and a puppet Vice-President Harris, controlled by a covert socialist Democrat politburo of unelected operatives who are not known to the American people. On the other side of the coin, it took a very stupid US electorate to fall for the Democrat propaganda that was thrown out to them during the run up to that bogus election. It is easy to call the 2020 election to be bogus and fraudulent, as at least half of the American people do not believe that election result. Beyond that, since no legitimate comprehensive investigation has ever been conducted into the very suspect election result.

As usual, Clarice is on the money but it's a rare leftist who will admit that Biden was the mistake of the century or admit that he has caused all of the current failures in the country. I still see those little flower gardens of yard signs full of liberal sayings and to a person, they are maintained by unemployed morons living with their parents. Some of them are complete families with children, parasites who have not worked in years. Some of them are the types who would march with Black Lies Matter or Antifa but they are too fat to march. They will be the first to notice when the supply of Coke and chips dwindles down at the local market.

The Parable of the Idiot Democrat from the Book of Clarice. Big thumbs up. And the cold snap....get used to it, the sunspots have been telling us for 44 years that the planet will be in a cooling cycle. The first 22 years, it wasn't super clear, but the last two 11 year cycles have been clearly far fewer sunspots. Let's hope it isn't time for the kick over into the overdue next Ice Age. This Interglacial Period is very pleasant, but is already longer than most have been. I'd hate to head back to having a 2 kilometer thick ice sheet down into Nebraska. That would interfere with the spring plowing, I think.

The libs I have known will never come to any conclusion except that all these problems are the result of all their usual bogeymans. Capitalists, oil companies, Trump, Christians, Jews, farmers, cops, conservatives, Qanon, ... (What is Qanon anyway? I never heard of them but the liberals talk about them all the time. I suspect it's a fake group created by liberals to act as a foil. Another fake bogyman.)

There can be little doubt that former Vice President Mike Pence thought he was doing the right thing. There are certainly many pragmatic reasons for his decision to not intervene in the electoral processes during those fateful days in January 2020. We’re a year and a half into the geriatric Biden regime and those pragmatic reasons are quickly losing their luster.

Writing in the foreign policy mouthpiece of the Biden administration and the Democratic Party, The Atlantic, former president Bill Clinton attempts to defend his decision to begin the post–Cold War expansion of NATO by naming the members of his foreign policy team, especially the late Madeleine Albright, who supported this move against the advice of George F. Kennan — who knew more about Russia and its history and culture than all of Clinton's advisers combined.
National Review’s Kevin Williamson redefines conservatism 29 replies

National Review’s Kevin Williamson is urging conservatives to divorce, or at least, separate, for a time, from the Republican Party -- that is, from the Donald Trump-led Republican Party. In a recent column, Williamson claims that what he calls “sensible conservatives” twenty years ago or so “could take a realistic, instrumental view of the GOP and find it reasonably useful for our ends.” But not today. Not when the Republican Party consists of “vulgar” populists and “infantile” nationalists who loathe free trade, free speech, the U.S. military, and libertarians.

I have a new name for the current occupant of the White House: Doomsday Joe. We have heard “Creepy Joe,” “Ol’ Joe,” “Sleepy Joe,” and “Stumblin’ Joe,” but now let’s add “Doomsday Joe,” because he, the Democrat Party, and the puppet masters behind the scenes are producing the script and pulling the strings are a cluster munition weapon of mass destruction that is wreaking havoc across America. Who can objectively assert that anything they are doing is good for America or for our allies in the free countries of the world (assuming any remain post-COVID)?

Lord have mercy. This Disinformation and the Erosion of Democracy summit at the University of Chicago’s Institute for Politics has unearthed some gold regarding the liberal media news complex and how they’re a massive problem…to the very theme of the conference. The Atlantic’s Anne Applebaum pretty much exposed why the media is so distrusted when she admitted why she buried the Hunter Biden story. She said she didn’t find it interesting.

Marin Marais died 60 years before the French Revolution. He composed “Voix des Humaines,” an instrumental trio with a very haunting beginning, that, with hindsight, seems to presage the bloody termination of the French evolution of feudalism. More and more of us today sense the gathering storm of oppression-triggered revolution and some even risk cancellation by speaking loudly about the contradictions of policies that put people above the law in this nation founded on laws, not men.

It seemed like another tiresome Oscar night devoid of any entertainment and replete with virtue signaling and political spiels. Just when you were about to yawn from boredom, Comedian Chris Rock ascended the stage to present the best documentary award. Rock began with a jab at Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz for being nominated on the same night. His next target was Denzel Washington as Macbeth, Rock said “King Lear ain’t got nothing on me.” Next, Jada Pinkett-Smith caught Rock's eye “Jada, I love you, G.I Jane 2, can’t wait to see it,” referring to the actress’s bald head.

It seems to me that the point of the superpartisan congressional January 6 Commission is to tar former president Donald Trump with inciting a riot (“insurrection” for the hyperbolic), an issue they raised and lost in the second impeachment battle. Perhaps they hope to persuade the Department of Justice to institute some cooked-up criminal charges against him for his comments on January 6. If I’m right about their objective, this week the Supreme Court in an unanimous opinion seems to have dealt them a setback.

A few days ago, porn star Stormy Daniels lost her appeal in her failed defamation suit against Donald Trump; she now owed more than $300,000 in legal fees to President Trump. "I will go to jail before I pay a penny," a defiant Daniels tweeted after the ruling. Daniels also posted a lengthy statement on Twitter where she claimed Trump had won the case “on a technicality” because her former lawyer, Michael Avenatti, failed to file a notice of appeal in her defamation suit on time. Avenatti himself was convicted in Manhattan federal court last month for defrauding Daniels out of money she was owed in a book deal

Being a Republican voter is no easy thing. Social media censor you. Companies fire you. The Department of Justice persecutes you. Democrats assault and harass you. And all the while, most Republican Party "leaders" stand back and do nothing as they watch. We've got the only political party in modern history controlled by a small group of elected officials who fundamentally disagree with the prevailing viewpoints of 90% of the voters who put them in office. Election after election, their unstated yet indisputable campaign slogan is simply, "Vote for us because we don't hate you quite as much as the other guys."

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) says he hasn’t decided whether to run for reelection in 2024, when he could be on the same ballot as Donald Trump if the former president seeks another bid for the White House. Romney has cast several high-profile votes putting him at odds with the GOP base — including two votes to convict Trump on impeachment charges. He became the first senator in history to convict a president of his own party in an impeachment trial in 2020. Just last week, Romney was one of only three Republicans to vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court.

Atlanta—The National Urban League released its annual report on the State of Black America on Tuesday, and its findings are grim. This year’s Equality Index shows Black people still get only 73.9% of the American pie white people enjoy. While Black people have made economic and health gains, they’ve slipped further behind white people in education, social justice and civic engagement since this index was launched in 2005. A compendium of average outcomes by race in many aspects of life, it shows just how hard it is for people of color to overcome systemic racism, the civil rights organization says.(Snip)The index shows not only that the median household

SEATTLE – Seattle’s Link Light Rail is a freeloader’s paradise. There are no turnstiles, so passengers are supposed to either buy a ticket or tap their pre-paid card. But so few riders are paying, fares are currently covering just 5% of the system’s operating costs, a fraction of the 40% mark Sound Transit set as a requirement. At a recent Sound Transit Board meeting, the outgoing CEO summed up the situation. "Our fare collection system relies overwhelmingly on an honor system," Peter Rogoff said, "and our increasingly acute problem is that our riders aren’t honoring the system." By one measurement

Pope Francis is at it again.

As the archdiocese of Malta openly admitted, “The podium will not be adorned with a crucifix, given that the majority of migrants are Muslim.” Instead, the podium backdrop used by Francis consisted of recycled plastic bottles with red blobs meant to highlight the two primary reasons Francis was visiting Malta -- to defend migrants and the environment:

Essentially, an intermediate generation came close to being wiped out (snip) This, more than anything else, more than racism -- though racism does exist in the South, as elsewhere -- explains why it will be impossible to wring Neo-Confederate sympathies out of many Southerners.

Once upon a time, the mantra of the libertarian Left was "keep the government out of the bedroom." President Joe Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi want to regulate any gadget or appliance with an electric switch that turns on in your house or your driveway. New Department of Energy rules will dictate the amount of water that comes out of your showerhead, how much warm air comes out of your heater and how much cool air comes out of air conditioners. There is even talk about gadgets monitoring your home's temperature in the winter and summer months. How is any of this the government's business? The latest shower regulations are especially aggravating.

Democrats shouldn’t have dished it out if they couldn’t take it. As it appears more likely that Republicans will retake the House of Representatives and possibly the Senate, discussions of impeaching President Joe Biden are becoming more prevalent on the right. However, not everyone is keen on the idea. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) recently warned against impeaching President Biden when they retake the House. As calls for Biden’s impeachment are increasing on the right, it appears the lawmaker is signaling that he would not lend his support to such an endeavor. He might want to rethink this one.
