Latest Assassin's Manifesto

From David Strom at Hot Air: Manifesto Released: He Believed All the Lies the Democrats Now Claim They Never Said

As I spent the evening scouring the internet for information on the assassination attempt last night, I ran across a ton of posts from lefties claiming that it was either staged—a fan favorite—or that the motive might never be known.

Hasan Piker was quite angry that people pointed out that he, just the other day, talked about harnessing the left's assassination fantasies as a way to organize followers.

But then Hasan Piker...

The Democratic Party is now a hate group. I don't say that lightly, but as even a few social scientists have noted, there is an assassination culture on the left. And it's not just Trump. The anti-Israel movement celebrates Hamas, talks about #resistance and the necessity of violence to achieve social change, and the Democrats embrace these people as their next generation of voters.

Why Liberals Cling to Policies That Don't Work

The Other McCain brings us an analysis of why the Left keeps trying to replace things that work, with things that they believe sound good. The Worst People in the World (Part II)

You will never understand liberals until you read Thomas Sowell’s The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy. However often I’ve recommended that book over the years, I occasionally feel the need to repeat the recommendation for the simple reason that Sowell demystifies what would otherwise be incomprehensible, i.e., the persistent tendency of the Left to make their own good intentions an argument for supporting policies that are objectively harmful to the very people that liberals claim to be “helping.”

I would like to point out that when those policies fail, the cognitive dissonance causes a lot of problems, usually ending in violence.

After touching on the Minneapolis anti-ICE protests, and dip into the history of 2014, and the Kaitlyn Hunt case, we get an analysis of some of the TDS around the American Men's Hockey victory at the Olympics. Click thru, it is entertaining. Except for the bits about how the Left believe their good intentions are not paving the road to hell.

Trump Called Cops on Epstein

This will hurt the narrative. Trump Called Cops On Epstein In 2006

Seems there is a record/transcript/summary of call between Donald Trump to the Palm Beach police chief in 2006 about Epstein's criminal activities. Click thru for those details.

I’m sure there are lots and lots of big wigs who were involved with Epstein, as he had his hands in a lot of pies, but, were not involved with all the child trafficking and other criminal stuff. Some who possibly had no idea what was going on. And some who realized that something shady was going on. Like, apparently, Donald Trump. And, really, at this point, there’s nothing to tie Trump to the shady, criminal stuff. If there were it would have been released during the latter Obama or Biden days.

There is more. The UK Prime Minister's entanglement is interesting.

Do You Remember? I Remember

Arielle Scarcella has an interesting, but short (About 1 minute) video asking if you remember some of the things they told you before the election of 2024. What Happened To Trump’s Gay Conversion Camps? Well, Arielle and friends.

Remember when they told us the gays would be in conversion-therapy camps as soon as Trump got elected?

Other things they told us

• Joe Biden was coherent
• Kamala was best for the job because of skin color
• Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation
• Inflation was a "good thing"
• Social Media was absolutely NOT censoring conservatives

There is more in the video, and I bet you can remember even more examples.

Just make sure you never forget.

This is "I Remember" by Deadmau5 and Kaskade. Just because... well the video is probably appropriate for the Snowmageddon that the weather people are screaming about.

The Credibility of Cassidy Hutchinson as a J6 Witness

From The Other McCain we get ‘Madison Cornbread’ Update

Cassidy Hutchinson was a "star witness" before the J6 committee hearings.

Turns out the "star witness" was giving a lot of hearsay testimony.

The real purpose of Nancy Pelosi’s J6 witch-hunt committee was to demonize anyone who raised doubts about Joe Biden’s 81 million votes, essentially making it a crime to suggest Democrats stole the election.

Click thru for details, commentary, and the origin of the "Madison Cornbread" sobriquet.

I love that word, "sobriquet," and The Other McCain's writing style. Most people would just use the word "nickname." I hope we get more of his writing this year.

No Murders in DC in a Week

Most would call this good news, unless you are inflicted with Trump Derangement Syndrome. Federal agents make 77 more arrests in DC as Bondi reports progress | Fox News

"[T]here have been no recorded homicides in the city for the past week," said public information officer Michael Russo via email. "Our last recorded homicide was August 13th."

There is more info on the operations generally if you want to click thru.

Hat tip to Clayton Cramer: Orange Man Bad Interfering With Their Culture, in which he notes that there were roughly 3 homicides a week before this. I'm sure it is just a coincidence.

It really is true. If Trump came up with a cure for cancer, progressives would be whining about oncologists' unemployment rates. These people have no shame or conscience.

He has more to say about how Progressives view the inner city.

DC Police to Share Info with ICE

The Left is brokenhearted. Or CNN is, but I repeat myself. DC police to share information with federal immigration officers | CNN Politics

Washington, DC, Police Chief Pamela Smith signed an executive order Thursday allowing DC police officers to share information about people not in their custody with federal immigration enforcement agencies such as ICE — as President Donald Trump continues his federal takeover of law enforcement in the nation’s capital and crackdown on illegal immigration.

Hat tip to William Teach at Pirate's Cove and his post Heartache: Info On Illegals In D.C. To Be Shared With Los Federales

How crazy is it that the police in the District Of Columbia, the seat of US government, know who the illegal aliens are in their sector and had been actively hiding people who broke federal law. Of course, that doesn’t mean that the average officer liked doing that, they were just forbidden from sharing the information by their crazy superiors

No doubt the Left will see law enforcement providing info to law enforcement about criminals proof that the sky is falling.

The Media's TDS Continues

If Trump did it, it can't possibly be good. Media Downplays Trump’s Six Peace Deals Despite Warring Nations’ Confirmation

During his second administration, President Donald Trump has not only focused on securing the U.S. border and demanding improved trade terms with allies, but has also worked to negotiate peace deals and end conflicts. While the media has portrayed his foreign policy as a failure, evidence, including official statements from the previously-warring nations, shows he has been remarkably successful. Below is a rundown of the six conflicts President Trump has brought to an end.

The media has to portray everything done by any Republican as a failure. That is their job as mouthpieces for the Democratic party.

Anyway, click thru for the conflicts and the details.

Obama's Coup to Undermine Trump in 2017

Obama didn't like the way the 2016 election turned out, so he set out to undermine Trump. Walter Curt at WC Dispatch - Obama's Intelligence Coup

Bombshell New Documents Show the Oval Office Plotted with Intelligence to Delegitimize Trump and Mislead the Nation.

I find it a bit ironic that The Democratic Party doesn't really believe in democratic elections.

Washington feared factions that would, in his words, “usurp the reins of government for themselves.” Adams warned that liberty once surrendered is rarely recovered. Jefferson reminded future generations that “the price of freedom is eternal vigilance.” Today’s revelation is precisely the sort of elite mischief those gentlemen cautioned against.

CIA Review Reveals Obama Pushed Russia Collusion Hoax

I'm shocked that a politician from Chicago would lie, or do anything underhanded. OK, so I'm not shocked. CIA Review Reveals Obama Pushed Russia Collusion Hoax

While Brennan, Clapper, and Comey all rightly deserve condemnation, Obama launched the plot and as president he holds greater responsibility for politicizing the intelligence community against his successor.

I want to copy something, but there is too much. I will leave you with this, and say, "read the whole thing."

Yes, the CIA report showed, in the words of CIA Director Ratcliffe, “how Brennan and Clapper and Comey manipulated [and] silenced all the career professionals and railroaded the process.” But they were merely doing the dirty work for Obama, which is why CIA Director Ratcliffe stressed: “This was Obama, Comey, Clapper and Brennan deciding ‘We’re going to screw Trump.’”

Trump, Iran, and Time Limits

From Robert Stacy McCain... ‘An Earth-Shattering Kaboom’: Israel Wipes Out Top Iranian Military Leaders

Wednesday I spoke to a colleague who said to me in a very matter-of-fact way that Iran was going to get hit soon. He isn’t some kind of security-clearance type, but he does have a few “sources close to the Trump administration,” as an Objective Journalist would say, and I don’t know how he knew it, but he was certainly correct. It has been pointed out that, on April 12, Trump said Iran had 60 days to reach an agreement on ending its nuclear weapons program, and today? Yeah — Day 61.

Everything is Donald Trump's Fault!

From Small Dead Animals Wow, What Incredible Power Donald Trump Has!

Turns out, if you ever see any overweight black women, please know it’s not their fault, it’s Trump’s fault. That’s not me saying this, it’s this woman. Even the obesity of black women is Trump’s fault!

Because nothing is your fault. Unless you're conservative, and then everythign is your fault.

The Battle Is Not Over, But Just Begun

From The Other McCain: Making Sense of Democrat Disarray and the Future of the MAGA Revolution

We've had some fun laughing at the Democrats defending fraud and corruption on a grand scale, but there is work to be done.

They thought 2020 meant they could do anything and never pay a price.

Unfortunately for Democrats, the errors of the Biden era were numerous and quite harmful, and the appearance of the 2020 election as a decisive anti-Trump referendum proved to be an illusion. Once Biden’s cognitive decline became undeniable, and he was forced off the ticket in favor of Kamala Harris, there was a decisive shift in the other direction, yet even then Democrats remained in denial. The media kept hyping up the “joy” of Kamala’s campaign, and the usual suspects produced polls showing Harris leading Trump by four, five, even six points during that August/September period. They wanted to believe . . .

ATF Defying a Presidential Order

From Gun Owners of America: Time to ABOLISH this Unconstitutional Agency!

The ATF has already gone rogue and defied President Trump.

President Trump signed an Executive Order that puts all “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion” (DEI) hires within the federal government on mandatory leave.

So, the ATF quietly changed the title of one of its bureaucrats, Lisa T. Boykin, the “Chief Diversity Officer,” to “Senior Executive” overnight to save her job from the chopping block.

Because the people who work for the administration don't want to believe that they actually do work for THIS administration.

Trump Transition Team Scorches Elizabeth Warren

Ouch. That's gonna leave a mark. Elizabeth Warren Demands Conflict-of-Interest Rules for Musk, and Trump Camp’s Response Is FIRE

E. Warren is proposing "conflict of interest" rules for Musk. Why? Because she can propose them. The response is classic.

Heap big trouble for Trump and Musk, eh? No. Not only is Warren’s demand patently one-sided and politically motivated, but Trump’s team is not disposed to take it lying down. Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt on Monday sent Warren a teepee-shaking response: “President Trump,” Leavitt wrote, “has assembled the most impressive and qualified team of innovators, entrepreneurs, and geniuses to advise and staff our government. Pocahontas can play political games and send toothless letters, but the Trump-Vance transition will continue to be held to the highest ethical and legal standards possible—a standard unfamiliar to a career politician whose societal impact is 1/1024th of Elon Musk's.”

There is more including a plea to preseve that statement as template to fight against the RINOs and the Left.

Hat tip to Ed Driscoll at Instapundit:

Incidentally, some of us on the right are also extremely angry with Trump’s spokeswoman referring to Warren as “Pocahontas.” It’s Fauxcahontas, dammit — Fauxcahontas!

#NeverTrump Schadenfreude Has Taken a Backseat to the Dem Version

And that needs to be corrected. Sure, the Democratic Party and the corporate media (but I repeat myself) have descended into fits of caterwauling, and screaming at the sky. The Schadenfreude, a dish best served cold, has been wonderful.

But the Democrats are not the only group reeling from the results of the recent election. From The Other McCain we get a tasty bit of #NeverTrump hand wringing. The Agony of #NeverTrump: His Comeback Has Destroyed Their Prestige

If you want to see something funny — that is, assuming you have a sadistic sense of humor — you should go watch YouTube highlights of The Bulwark’s Election Night podcast, featuring Bill Kristol, Tim Miller, Sarah Longwell, Jonathan V. Last and company in a slow downhill slide from hope to despair. Perhaps never in human history has disappointment been more well deserved. You have to remember how and why the #NeverTrump Grift started to truly appreciate its squalid denouement. If you go back to early 2015, the “smart” money among conservative pundits was on either Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz as the likely Republican nominee.

The linked video of #NeverTrump election coverage is an hour long. It is condensed from many hours of election-night coverage. I have not watched all of it. The cope is real, however.

The fact that Trump didn't just win, but won big in the electoral college and won the popular vote really cut the legs out from under these folks. They are mad. They are sad. They are plotting their revenge. They hate Americans who didn't do what they were told to do. At the end of the day, they hate democracy, and our democratic republic.

Most people can’t comprehend the selfish careerism of the Professional Conservative Pundit crowd, for whom prestige and influence are their real stock-in-trade. They climbed aboard the #NeverTrump bandwagon because it seemed like the “smart” thing to do.

After all, if Trump could not possibly beat Hillary (which was what the pundits kept telling us), then even if he did win the GOP nomination, the #NeverTrump crowd would be vindicated in November 2016, and step forward ready to assert their rightful place as the divinely ordained Intellectual Leaders of the Conservative Movement™.

Konstantin Kisin Explains the US Election to the English and Europeans

This might also work for some Democrats, but then most Democrats are too deep in the grip of TDS to hear anything.

A list of 10 reasons Trump was elected. Not a perfect list, but if you look in the comments you will find some others.

This is the Triggernometry video 10 Reasons You Didn't See This Coming - Konstantin Kisin.

This video is for my British and European friends who are shocked, surprised, and horrified at Donald Trump's Landslide Victory. Here are 10 reasons you didn't see it coming. By the way once you watch this video make sure you look in the comments and see what Americans are saying about whether this video makes sense or not.

Kostantin Kisin was born in the Soviet Union, and moved to the United Kingdom when he was 11. He was only a child when the Berlin Wall came down, and the Warsaw Pact fell apart, but he clearly remembers what that time was like.

Suddenly the Left Is Worried About Justice

With the exception that Trump doesn't need to make stuff up, they are going to face everything they dished out. Trump 2.0: ‘Siri, What Is Payback?’

All day Wednesday, my office TV was tuned to MSNBC (I watch, so you don’t have to) and they were howling over Trump’s pick of Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense, which choice is perfectly defensible, given Hegseth’s combat record as an infantry officer with two bronze stars, and never mind his degrees from Princeton and Harvard. If the MSNBC talking heads were howling over Hegseth, however, their reaction to the news of Gaetz as Attorney General could best be desribed as autistic screeching, as the kids say. Their brains completely melted.

All the people who went after Trump, for the past 8 years, never thought they would face the consequences of lying, cheating, and stealing to keep him out of the Oval Office.

As always, go read the whole thing. Robert Stacy McCain writes MUCH better than I do.

NYC Liberals and College Students Need Therapy after Trump Wins

Predictable and stupid. NYC liberals seek therapy after Trump wins the White House

The Schadenfreude has been wonderful this past week. I could have posted about it every day. But this is either funny, or sad, depending on how I look at it.

Liberals in deep-blue New York City shocked and disturbed by President-elect Donald Trump’s election victory are flooding shrinks’ inboxes looking for appointments.

“It’s a perfect storm for New York therapists,” said Manhattan psychologist Chloe Carmichael, who estimated she’s received a 15% spike in inquiries from patients. “It’s a repeat of 2016, where a lot of people feel really scared and traumatized and angry.”

Oh, no. You didn't get your way. So you have to throw a temper tantrum, run to your safe space, whatever.

Several colleges had professors cancel classes to "grieve," or something. And then there are the ways they are treating LEGAL adults like kindergartners. Universities help students cope with Trump win with canceled classes, milk and cookies.

Meanwhile, Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy provided a “Self-Care Suite” that included “Milk and Cookies,” “a Legos Station” and “Coloring and Mindfulness Exercises,” according to a memo obtained by The Free Press.

If I was still a hiring manager, I would not hire the children being graduated from these "institutions." What can you expect them to do when faced with a crunch deadline? Cry? Run home to Mommy? What? Can you give them criticism about the work they do? Will they run to HR every other day? What?
