A COVID Tyrant For President?
Posted By: RockyTCB, 9/29/2023 5:40:22 AM
When recently asked if he was going to run for president next year, California Gov. Gavin Newsom wouldn’t rule it out. This is no big news, since we’ve been hearing for some time that he will rescue the faltering Biden-Harris regime. But it is distressing. In addition to driving people from his state with policies that become more deranged with every passing year, Newsom was a malevolent pandemic warrior who should have been punished for his offenses. Voters deserve to know just how vicious he was – and that he remains unrepentant. It would be hard to argue that any another state mistreated its citizens more than California.

‘Hands Off’ Irony Is Lost On The Left 9 replies
We were bemused at the Orwellian doublespeak of the weekend protests, which were waged under the banner of “hands off.”
Hands off? What the protesters really want is for the government to keep its hands on – on our throats choking out our freedoms and in our pockets stealing our money.
Naturally, the protesters describe themselves as “defending democracy” and the current situation a “crisis.” What else is new?
But this particular effort – reported by most of the press to be “massive,” encompassing, said CNN, “scores of people” (20s of people?) – was more mindless than usual.
Media, Please Grow Up, Part II 1 reply
Earlier this week, we outlined the media’s habit of acting like school kids in regard to climate change alarm. Today, we’re asking members of the legacy press to behave as adults rather than spoiled children. We don’t expect them to.
Many in the White House press corps, exclusively those from the mainstream media, treat the briefing room as if it’s their playpen. For the last 19 years, the White House Correspondents’ Association has dictated the seating arrangement, so the “cool kids” always get the best seats.
Prior to 2006, seating was arranged by the administration’s press secretary, and it looks
If Trump’s Tariffs Work, It Will Be Epic 8 replies
“April 2nd, 2025, will go down as one of the most important days in modern American history.” — White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
We have no doubt that Leavitt’s prediction will come true. Whether it’s remembered for being a success or as Smoot-Hawley 2.0 remains to be seen.
“It is going to work,” Leavitt said. “And the president has a brilliant team of advisers who have been studying these issues for decades.”
[snip] or the sake of the country, we hope Trump’s liberation day is remembered in future history books … and for all the right reasons. And if that’s
Trump Starts Undoing JFK’s Worst Mistake 8 replies
While Democrats were busy hyperventilating over the nothingburger “Signal scandal,” President Donald Trump quietly took an action that could do more to drain the swamp – and Democratic Party finances – than any other action he’s taken to date.
On Thursday, Trump signed an executive order that ends collective bargaining rights for most federal workers, a move that “is a magnitude of tenfold on what they’ve done so far on their attack of the federal workforce and the labor movement,” Cathy Creighton, director of Cornell University’s Industrial and Labor Relations Buffalo Co-Lab, told the Washington Post.

Media, Please Grow Up 3 replies
When did high school newspaper editors take over Western media? Decades ago, of course, and we’re unhappy to report that it seems they’re never going to grow up. The latest evidence? The early peak bloom of the cherry blossom trees along Washington’s Tidal Basin is being blamed on global warming.
The press has latched onto the man-made global warming narrative and it won’t let go.
The Washington Post couldn’t wait to inform its tell-us-what-to-believe readership that this year’s “peak occurred several days earlier than the long-term average, as human-caused climate warming hastens the onset of spring flowering.”
Real Election Reform At Last? 5 replies
Lost amid a flash flood of recent news, President Donald Trump’s executive order to make American elections more fair and less likely to be corrupted by ideology-driven election officials is possibly a game-changer. If Trump’s order withstands the inevitable onslaught of legal and political challenges it will face, it will make a huge difference in future elections.
The ink had barely dried on Trump’s reform than the New York Times, setting the tone for the national media, ran this headline: “Trump Is Trying to Gain More Power Over Elections. Is His Effort Legal?”
So what does Trump’s order, dubbed

Second Term? (Hint: It’s Not Better):
I&I/TIPP Poll 9 replies
President Donald Trump had a rough ride with the media during his first term. Big media and smaller social media alike often treated Trump with open scorn, and peppered him with insulting epithets, calling him “fascist” or even “Hitler.” Is it better this time? Not much: A majority in the latest I&I/TIPP Poll say he’s still being treated the same or worse as back then.
There’s little doubt, even among those on the left, that Trump is deeply reviled by the mostly left-leaning media. His braggadocio, his aggressive leadership style, his creatively unorthodox policies, his personal fearlessness and his overall popularity have kept Trump a media target.
Our friend Steven Hayward, late of the great Power Line blog, university professor and incisive thinker, wrote a compelling essay last week about “The Nadir of the Climate Change Movement.” If anyone should know about the state of global warming hysteria, it would be Hayward. Here’s how he begins his argument:
The prevailing winds are blowing not toward more windmills but toward common sense on energy.
It is possible that the Trump administration is going to deal the death blows to the long-running climate change hysteria and government hostility to fossil fuels, not just in the United States but around the globe.
Shed No Tears For Fired Federal Workers 12 replies
When the Trump administration announces the next round of government layoffs, the wailing, the gnashing of teeth, the sob stories will be deafening. For what? A bunch of overpaid, underworked bureaucrats?
Estimates about how many jobs have been cut so far differ. The press claims DOGE has eliminated around 100,000 federal jobs. Challenger, Gray & Christmas says 62,530 were let go in January and February. But the Bureau of Labor Statistics recorded a net loss of only 6,700 federal jobs in February.
Whatever the case, Donald Trump wants big numbers. The Department of Education already said it will chop its workforce in half.
During President Donald Trump’s first term and again in his second, we have heard his critics indict him for the “chaos” he’s stirred up in Washington. They see disorder and confusion. But those not suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome recognize this as the needed shake-up of a government that had grown out of control and become a threat to those it was intended to protect and serve.
The “chaos” label has not been used as often as “Nazi,” “fascist,” “dictator,” “tyrant” and “authoritarian” to try to vilify Trump. But it’s been part of the campaign to – let’s be frank – dehumanize
The Terrorists Among Us 5 replies
Whenever the far left in the U.S. loses an argument — called an election — it suddenly decides it’s time to take to the streets and get violent. Now is just such a time, as America experiences a new spasm of home-grown anti-Trump, anti-Musk terrorism. It shouldn’t be tolerated.
Whether it’s taking pot shots at the president, violently demonstrating in support of murderous terrorists, “swatting” people they don’t like, or destroying cars made by a person they now despise, our country once again finds extremists threatening us and our liberty.
And, no surprise, it’s nearly all from the far left side of
Americans have shown a high-degree of support for the cuts being made to the federal bureaucracy and spending by the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. Why? A majority across the country believe the government wastes vast amounts of their tax money, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
For the March online national I&I/TIPP Poll, voters were asked the following question: “What percentage of your tax dollars do you believe is wasted by the federal government?” The possible responses included: “Less than 10%,” “10%-25%,” “26%-50%,” “51%-75%,” “More than 75%,” and “Not sure.”

Walmart has issued a public response to a growing nationwide boycott that began Monday, as some Americans pledge to avoid the retail giant for a week in protest over a range of economic and political grievances. "Serving communities is at the heart of Walmart's purpose to help people save money and live better," the company said in a statement shared with Newsweek. (Snip) The protest is the latest in a string of consumer-led boycotts targeting major corporations over their political influence, labor practices, or perceived social stances. The consumer strike is being run by a group called People's Union USA

Can I get a cut, blow-dry and a crash course in climate please?
That could be the request in salons across the country under a scheme that aims to train hairdressers and barbers to get conversations going about one of the most hair-raising issues facing humanity.
‘A Brush With Climate’ is inspired by a movement that started in Sydney, Australia when a salon owner looked to see how to use their renowned conversational skills to get chats going about solutions to the climate crisis.
Four towns are to be chosen under the pilot scheme with local hairdressers and barbers invited to become involved.

Monday on MSNBC’s “Deadline,” Princeton University professor and network contributor Eddie Glaude, Jr. said he believed people voted for President Donald Trump because they did not want to elect a black woman.
Glaude said, “I don’t know what it’s going to take for the American people, for 78 million Americans to deal with what motivated them to make the choice to elect this man again, to make the choice will allow these people to undermine every fundamental assumption we have.”
He continued, “The choice that they’ve made, we have to just be honest, is to literally throw the republican to the trash bin.”
Glaude added, “We chose a felon
Barack Obama has lost his mojo and ruined his brand.
It used to be said that President Joe Biden was serving former President Obama’s third term, that his former boss was controlling him from the home he had bought in DC’s ritzy Kalorama neighborhood, two miles from the White House.
The feeling was that Obama was the real leader of the Democratic Party and his wife, Michelle, was the secret weapon they would whip out in 2024 to replace Biden and trounce Donald Trump.
Caroline Kennedy’s 32-year-old son Jack Schlossberg is ensuring the Kennedy reputation for being pigs doesn’t skip his generation.
The grandson of former President John F. Kennedy is using social media to openly fantasize about having a baby with Vice President JD Vance’s wife, Usha.
“I’m having a son !! So excited about this. Cannot wait for the birth of my next child because today was the best day of my life,” Schlossberg wrote on his Instagram account.
“Out of wedlock, yes. But we might get married,” he added.
Attached to the birth announcement was a photo of the lovely Usha Vance holding a baby with Jack Schlossberg’s smug face.
The last thing the Palestinians need are more calls from Qatar-based extremist for terrorism and jihad. If these Muslim "scholars" really want to help their Palestinian brothers, they should be calling on Hamas to release all the Israeli hostages they kidnapped, then to disarm, and then to stop pursuing the disastrous path of terrorism and jihad.
The "scholars" leading the IUMS live safely in Qatar, not in the Gaza Strip, and they are therefore not directly affected by the war that Hamas launched.
That such a call by an influential Islamic group comes from an organization based in Doha illustrates why Qatar c

A Chinese woman detained by border patrol officers for overstaying her visa died by suicide at the US Border Patrol station in Arizona after officers reportedly failed to perform required welfare checks on her, US Representative Pramila Jayapal alleged.
The woman, a 52-year-old Chinese national, was picked up in California after authorities determined she overstayed her B1/B2 visitor visa, Jayapal said in a statement last week. She was sent to the Yuma station in Arizona and was detained there until her sudden death on March 29.

Michelle Obama’s new podcast with her brother, Craig Robinson, and is a total flop.
The new venture, the “IMO” podcast, was launched by Higher Ground, the Obamas’ media company.
The latest episode titled, “Pursue What You Love Before You Pursue Love” has only garnered 11,000 views in 11 hours.
The IMO podcast is not climbing the charts like Michelle Obama thought it would.
Doral, Fla. — Wilmer Escaray left Venezuela in 2007 and enrolled at Miami Dade College, opening his first restaurant six years later.
Today he has a dozen businesses that hire Venezuelan migrants like he once was, workers who are now terrified by what could be the end of their legal shield from deportation.
Since the start of February the Trump administration has ended two federal programs that together allowed more 700,000 Venezuelans to live and work legally in the U.S. along with hundreds of thousands of Cubans, Haitians and Nicaraguans.
In the largest Venezuelan community in the United States,
President Trump stood by his wide-scale tariffs, calling them a “beautiful thing to behold” that will eventually be largely supported even as the stock futures dropped Sunday evening.
“They are already in effect, and a beautiful thing to behold. The Surplus with these Countries has grown during the ‘Presidency’ of Sleepy Joe Biden,” Trump blasted out on Truth Social Sunday night as he attempted to justify the action he took against around 90 nations last week.
“We are going to reverse it, and reverse it QUICKLY. Some day people will realize that Tariffs, for the United States of America, are a very beautiful thing!”
Representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ) has filed a resolution to remove U.S. District Court Judge James E. Boasberg for failing to uphold the Constitution’s “good behavior” clause—without requiring the traditional two-thirds Senate vote.
The resolution, submitted in the House of Representatives, alleges Judge Boasberg—currently Chief Judge of the powerful United States District Court for the District of Columbia—knowingly abused his position to interfere with the constitutional authority of President Donald Trump.
The resolution declares Judge Boasberg’s conduct a breach of constitutional order, particularly his unlawful meddling in President Trump’s lawful directive
The Trump administration will be allowed to resume deporting suspected Venezuelan gangbangers under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act after the Supreme Court on Monday lifted a lower court order that blocked the deportations.
DC District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg had blocked President Trump from invoking the rarely used wartime law last month, and later extended his temporary restraining order until at least April 12.
The Trump administration filed an emergency request with the Supreme Court to review Boasberg’s pause on March 28, after a divided three-judge panel on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a request to lift the stay as litigation plays out.
