Hypocrisy Reigns Supreme

The hypocrisy of the left on display. Most recently Billie Eilish as an example, the 24 year-old pop star and one of the current poster children for the entertainment industry’s penchant for the bizarre and gender confusion. Her rant at the Grammy Awards  “No one is illegal on stolen land” failed to account for her multi-million dollar mansion recently constructed on the Native American Matobe tribe’s claimed sacred land, the same stolen land where she reportedly spends exorbitantly on security, presumably to keep out undesirables. So, in other words, we have a proponent of open borders who has built a fortress on stolen land where she enforces its borders. Really? Like the leftist lunatics that took over the streets of Portland, the first thing they did was set up checkpoints where they demanded to see your papers to keep out those that weren’t like-minded liberals and essentially establishing……you guessed it: borders. They argue that we all live on stolen land; therefore, there can be no borders. As a result, nobody is an illegal immigrant, discounting centuries of shifting borders, wars, and conquests that have shaped modern civilization. If we discard all that history, we are discarding governments and countries as mere mental constructs, and we descend into chaos. And with that,  the concept of property goes as well. You have publicly demonstrated your unawareness and hypocrisy beyond the pale. Billie!

Fort Worth Bellwether

The democrat turnout in the polls in Fort Worth, flipping a staunchly Republican congressional district, is not a good sign. It is becoming apparent that Americans want to virtue signal above all else and are easily manipulated by false Progressive narratives. The immigrant kid in the bunny hat, the saintly ICU nurse, the mom just dropping her kid off at school, the Maryland dad. And don’t even get me started on George Floyd. And the media propaganda machine keeps churning it out. Has anyone heard about the thousands of missing immigrant children that ICE has recovered? Nope. What about the Trump accounts putting money in the pockets of the next generation, giving them a piece of the pie?  Not that either. Drug overdose deaths down, violent crime reaching historic lows? Uh-uh. And where did all the news of massive fraud in the Minnesota welfare system disappear to? All overshadowed by hysteria whipped up by progressive politicians and their media mouthpieces to distract from real accomplishments. Enforcing our laws and maintaining our national sovereignty be damned. Americans want convenience, free stuff, and above all, to appear righteous. Laws of the land and our standing on the world stage are no longer even considerations, and most are too complacent 

to realize the long-term impact. Measles anyone?  

Grotesque Grammys

And we have the remarkably self-absorbed Grammy Awards crowd of misfits, and weirdos, breathlessly celebrated by the media for their cutting-edge fashion and artistry… but especially their political acumen. Even Don Lemon got a standing ovation from these deviants. 

Like anyone with an IQ above 100 needs to be guided politically by Bad Bunny, Machine Gun Kelly, Tyler The Creator, or perhaps Justin Bieber who performed in his underwear. Lady Gaga with her head in a basket?  Check. Or maybe Chappell Roan (who?) appearing topless, replete with nipple rings, on the red carpet. Talk about desperate for attention. Perhaps a Grammy nomination should come with a voucher for psychiatric services, though I suspect most of them are already regular couch occupants. 

Rotten Apple

I’ll tell you, the Apple News feed is on full throttle. They are trolling for anti-Trump articles wherever they can find them. Reading the posts, you would suspect that his policies are all failing, inflation has failed to meet targets, the economy is in freefall, the American public favors open immigration, all our allies hate us, he has illegally killed innocent fishermen in Venezuela, and he has made healthcare unaffordable. We are going to lose the midterms unless we have a remarkable economic boom and figure out how to right the healthcare ship that Obamacare sunk. Screw foreign policy, Americans don’t care. All they care about is money in their pockets, especially when somebody else is putting it there. 

Oh Peggy, My Peggy

Peggy Noonan is at it again. She criticized Trump over his spat with Canadian PM Carney, admonishing, “Friends” don’t speak to each other this way. When is she going to figure out that Carney, and most of our opportunistic world leaders, for that matter, are not our friends?  He ran for office on a resist-Trump platform and has done everything he can to fulfill his pledge. Canada has been engaging in unfair trade practices with the US for decades, along with the rest of our NATO “friends,” and like most welfare recipients, they now assume that level of subsidy to be the status quo. And Trump is right that Canada benefits from US protection, making Carney’s chest thumping and posturing not only insulting but rather short-sighted for a country so geographically close to Russia, which, along with China, is making aggressive forays into the Arctic.  Friends can have disagreements, especially when one is taking advantage of the other, and sometimes tough love is required, but you don’t run into the arms of the enemy. That’s no friend, Peggy!

Reflections on Davos

Davos. Where the Europeans and attendees at the world economic forum were like small children, complacent in the warmth of socialism of their own making, their stagnant GDPs reliant on decades of living under the umbrella of US protection, having been allowed to suckle at the teat of US taxpayer cash, paying rent on military bases, doling out billions of dollars of aid to buy their loyalty. Their economies are benefiting from lopsided trade agreements. Now, with Trump practicing his America First policies, they act like petulant children and run to gain favor with the nearest source of cash, in this case, another superpower willing to buy their allegiance.  The most glaring example of late being Canada’s PM Carney, infected with a chronic case of TDS, bending the knee to Xi and the CCP, potentially letting the fox in the henhouse on 5525 miles of common border with the US. Surely this is a case of 'better the devil you know,' especially given this administration's finite life span. China’s, not so much. They’re in it for the long haul with a goal of world domination. And speaking of which, how about Venezuela?  Do you leftist nitwits think this was all about cocaine trafficking? Simpletons. Maduro was cozying up to China, allowing them to secure mineral rights and oil concessions, run their ports, and maintain a military presence on the ground, training local forces and supplying technology in our hemisphere.

Not on Trump’s watch. Where exactly does China procure the vast amount of energy to further its AI ambitions?  You got it: Venezuelan oil, Russian oil, and a flotilla of ghost ships. And what has Trump done? He has seized the oil cargo and impounded the tankers, removed Maduro, and now controls Venezuelan oil production and sanctioned the crap out of Russian oil. Simultaneously putting the brakes on China’s AI ambitions, preventing more rare earth mineral acquisition, removing Chinese influence from our backyard, and, as an aside, has reduced overdose deaths in the US by 20 percent. That sounds like a win. 

And why wouldn’t Trump push for ownership of Greenland?  What we are currently being offered is like the dreaded triple net lease. Pay rent on military bases, pay for improvements, subsidize their welfare state, but in the end, you own nothing. Home ownership versus renting an apartment. How well has that worked out for us in Panama, where the canal, built by the US at great expense in blood and treasure, is now run by Panama and being parceled out to the CCP so they can effectively cut off our Navy’s access to unhindered, efficient movement between the Atlantic and the Pacific theaters. And the Middle East is littered with US airbases and equipment given up to the enemy. Afghanistan and Iraq are the most prominent examples of flushing taxpayer cash down the drain. And what happens when the kingdom of Denmark, population just under six million, continues to allow the Muslim invasion currently taking place?  Will an Islamist Denmark in 20 years allow China to gain a foothold in Greenland to destabilize the great satan?  Denmark’s ability to defend Greenland is laughable. And besides, it’s in North America, directly in the path of potential incoming ICBMs originating in Russia and bound for the eastern seaboard. Russian submarines must also pass along Greenland’s shores to prowl the Atlantic. Thawing sea ice is making passage through Arctic waterways vital for trade and military dominance. But after Denmark promised to apply funds for security, the earmarked cash ended up in social programs for the island’s 56000 welfare recipients. 56000, incidentally, is the entire population of Greenland. It’s like a bigger Puerto Rico on the rocks. With 57 times fewer people. Do we need more of that?  Not really. But Trump is playing three dimensional chess while the rest of the world, and our media, is dabbling in checkers. By all reports, Trump has turned the World Economic Forum on its head and once again may be coming home with a deal.

The Democrat Message

Democrats are in favor of unfettered immigration and lawlessness to pad their voting base.  It’s apparent and sinister. Nobody seems to notice that in red states where there has been ICE activity supported by local law enforcement there has been no violence, no unrest, no protests, no BLM style occupation, no tanking businesses, and no media coverage.
