They Know Not What They Are Doing

Are you listening to these people? They are deranged! Harris’s recently divulged economic plan again demonstrates her complete lack of appreciation for our financial crisis. Good God, she is inadequate beyond words. Corporate tax increases and sunset the tax break on S -corps and pass-thru businesses, our small entrepreneurs will simply wilt on the vine. But handouts for everyone else assured, because the rich will “pay their fair share.” Nothing annoys me more than that trite Democrat mantra. And yet none of these economically challenged political talking heads can tell us exactly how much is fair. Sound bite, bumper sticker simpletons.

Cause And Effect


Everyone’s squawking about Trump suggesting he would place tariffs on John Deere products after they announced they’re moving a large manufacturing segment to Mexico.  According to the WSJ, the perfect storm precipitated this when the UAW negotiated a sweetheart deal increasing worker pay and benefits when Deere faced decreasing demand for their products once the post-Covid boom began to subside. The result was that Deere laid off 2000 workers and moved manufacturing to Mexico as a cost-saving measure. It would objectively appear that the greatest threat to American manufacturing is the Democratic Party and their continued support for workers unions that ultimately benefit only the workers that remain employed after the purge.

The Demonizing Of Trump

The media just keeps chipping away at him, now somehow suggesting that he himself is at fault for the assassination attempt because of his tone and combativeness. Witness the phenomenally vacuous DEI hire KJP chastising Peter Doucy for suggesting that Biden, Harris, and their media minions constantly calling Trump “a threat to democracy” is mobilizing the left to violence against at him. They will speak to anything but the policies. What is truly concerning is that the left has effectively turned this campaign into a sideshow by demonizing Trump, goading him into a defensive and combative posture that they then point out is a flaw in his character that makes him unfit for office. Frankly, anyone who can withstand this incessant onslaught over his appearance, his personality, his wealth, his family, the personal attacks on his character, and two physical attempts on his life makes him the candidate MOST suited for the presidency. The man has a will of steel. In a world unraveling with Putin, Xi, and the Iranian mullahs (who recently displayed their formerly secretive uranium enrichment facilities) coalescing as our adversaries, who would you rather have at the negotiating table, Trump or the empty socialist pantsuit? 

Taylor Swift


What has become of us when we can make this 35-year-old, of the sequin-adorned bathing suit and knee-high disco boots, intellectually challenged, prancing singing Barbie Doll, a cultural icon and political influencer? That is precisely what brings us the Democrat presidential ticket of Harris and Walz!

Rigged Debate (Part 3)

Davis ( Kamala’s sorority sister) correcting Trump on his abortion assertion that unwanted viable late-term babies may be allowed to die under democrat proposals is yet another example of bias, with reports clearly indicating a minimum of 5 botched abortions in which the infants survived the procedure, and were allowed to die on the table when medical intervention was withheld. These five incidents were all in Minnesota, where Tim Walz was governor, and both Walz and Harris have voted against Republican-sponsored bills that required life-saving measures to be instituted in such cases as when the baby survives the abortion attempt. However, no correction was forthcoming from the panel, and Trump missed the opportunity to riposte effectively. He appeared rattled and frustrated, and rightfully so, as Kamala was repeatedly allowed to skate without correction. Out-of-context democrat talking points that have been, as the Democrats say about all of Trump's assertions, “debunked”  were leveled with impunity. The Charlottesville “good people” comment was not about Nazis,  the “bloodbath” comment was referencing what would happen to the US auto industry under EV mandates, and the Heritage Foundation produced the 2025 Project with no input from, or affiliation with, Donald Trump. Yet all three accusations by Harris resulted in no corrections, redirection, or request for clarification from the moderators. Disgraceful. And Harris’s assertion that she and Walz are gun owners and have no intention of banning guns was an alternate reality coming so close on the heels of her well publicized proposals for “mandatory” gun buy-back programs and an outright ban on so-called “assault weapons.”  Again, crickets from the moderators left Trump to howl in the wind. And with so many examples of policies that she contradicted in this debate performance, and indeed, performance is what it was, how can the moderators disavow knowledge of her position on the issues when there have been so few? The only explanation can be either journalistic malpractice or partisan bias on the parts of Muir and Davis. This is a shameful example of the state of journalism in America. But it was a win for Harris, a dirty win based on style and not substance, with all the condescending facial expressions adored by her proponents, which only galvanized her detractors. Interestingly, a study showed in real time how her antics caused her positive appraisal to soar amongst hardened supporters, but independents tracked in lockstep in a downward spiral alongside Republicans. We know nothing more about her policies and have no idea what “opportunity economy” even means, let alone how she plans to institute it. Like doling out $50,000 to small business start-ups is going to counter her potentially disastrous tax proposals. And how will Marxist style price fixing and taxing unrealized capital gains provide any opportunity at all? Besides, I can guess which businesses will selectively receive that 50K handout. And suggesting that Goldman-Sachs, after having been bailed out by government funds in the last recession, and a mysterious cadre of “award-winning” economists are somehow to be trusted to approve her economic plan over Trump’s is laughable at best. Tell me again about her vast experience in the private sector. And if Trump has been called unhinged, what can you possibly make of her comment that she supports legalization of the sex trade because, after all, “nobody gets hurt,” and it’s between “consenting adults.”Really?  What meager policy proposals of hers that have leaked out, spell disaster for the economy and the financial viability of the middle class. Taxation and anti-business policies will cripple investment and take the stock market with it, draining retirement savings and 401Ks. Coupled with the prediction that social security may face a 21% reduction in payouts by 2033 while our Medicaid rolls continually expand, along with a myriad of poorly managed government programs for the poor, and with the injection of some $20 million unskilled immigrants into the country we have the making of a toxic brew to explode government spending and kill the economy. 1929 will be dwarfed in both scale and severity in a Venezuelan-style collapse of historic proportion. I understand that liberals, obsessed with firsts, especially the first woman of color, are blinded by the blitzkrieg style Harris campaign and an intense, media-fueled criticism of all things Trump. But choose wisely. Harris is a radical candidate not deserving of the title of first woman president, and with the world on fire, now is not the time to take a chance on destructive domestic policies that will cripple America when the world needs us most.

Rigged Debate ((Part2)

The media is in full attack mode with all their B-list bird cage liners like Slate, Axios, Daily Beast, and HuffPo leading the charge to call Trump’s rambling description “unhinged” and his theory “debunked.”  And yet there exists credible evidence that this immigrant pet-eating story may actually be true, despite no corroborating confirmation from” authorities.”  Reports have surfaced from Springfield, OH, residents that their pets, dogs, and cats have vanished, with at least one witness to the result. Further, when JD Vance jumped into the fray, he suffered the same ridicule after reporting that geese were being plucked from ponds and consumed. Superficially, it may sound far-fetched, if not preposterous, especially to those who reside in those tony suburban enclaves in deep blue states. But alas, Springfield, population 60,000, has been besieged by Haitian immigrants estimated to be near 20,000…one-third of their population

stressing their “social safety net,” to quote city officials. Now, I’m sure there are plenty of Haitian immigrants who are fine people seeking a better life, but recall the current condition of Haiti, which has devolved into chaos with such gang kingpins as “Barbecue,” so named because of his penchant for burning his opposition alive. They say you get the government you deserve, and Haiti is a mess. Why?  Sorry to state the obvious, but because it’s full of Haitians. Statistically, not all of these immigrants are going to be swell people. Especially with a predominantly male influx. And let’s recall a relatively recent event that occurred in the primarily middle-class Syracuse, NY suburb of Manlius in 2023, where three Burmese immigrant teens stole four baby swans, cygnets killed the mother, and served her up as a Memorial Day feast for their family. The swans had been a fixture at a town park and were protected by a fence that the teens breached at 3 AM, which indicates both premeditation and subterfuge. Naturally, in liberal NY, it was dismissed as a “clash of cultures” with the teens “unaware of the significance of the swans” and that they thought they were “large ducks,” didn’t realize they were town property, and intended to raise the cygnets as pets with no intention of eating them. Uh-huh. The 18-year-old ringleader received just three years probation and community service.  Of course, he did. It's just a big misunderstanding. Nothing to see here. Pass the Tabasco. 

So, however, you want to rationalize this nonsense, no matter how absurd you may think it sounds…..it has happened before. Why should Springfield be immune?

Rigged Debate (Part1)

It’s interesting seeing the media mocking Trump for the ill-advised tangent he took into “immigrants eating people’s pets” at the debate. As Sebastian Gorka pointed out, it was fresh news that very morning, had not been confirmed and was thus anecdotal, territory into which Trump should never have ventured as it elicited laughs from the press and yet another exaggerated facial expression from Kamala. As an aside, note her constant mugging, smirking, and posturing for the camera with a much closer cropped view of the candidates than what we’ve seen in the past, favoring her by eliminating the podium so as not to appear short of stature, but also to take advantage of her animated facial expressions. It is almost as though they planned it, such as the cornucopia of emotive facial contortions, including the preposterous hand-on-chin contemplative pose made famous by AOC. Oh yeah, she’s been coached. There was not one ounce of spontaneity in Kamala’s retorts. Admittedly, she delivered her lines well in this Political Theater saga.

ABC Farse

The mere stat that Trump was fact-checked 33 times instead of once for Harris is telling. And she let loose all the standard talking points that have all been “debunked,” as the Dems like to say: “bloodbath,” “good people on both sides,” and the 2025 plan link have all been proven to be total BS but only crickets from the moderators. I had higher hopes after CNN did a respectable job in moderating some degree of objectivity, but these two clowns, Muir and Linsey, were a disgrace.

Say It Isn’t So

I can't believe that Dick Cheney is endorsing Kamala Harris for President. Or maybe I can. I always respected the elder Cheney for his foreign policy chops and his steely debating skills, even though his daughter was afflicted with Trump Derangement Syndrome and turned out to be a political hack who now stumps for the left.  But a stalwart conservative icon endorsing a socialist? Say it isn’t so. I have to be missing something. There has to be a bigger picture because something’s amiss here? Is there a bigger game being played, a game of three-dimensional chess of which we are unaware? Could it be that the deep state is threatened by Trump? Is the entrenched military-industrial complex concerned that the cash flow spigot feeding foreign wars and conflicts would be shut off by a Trump presidency?  Is there a deep state club of political power brokers of which Trump is not a member who benefits from keeping him out of the White House?  Is the economy and our domestic well-being secondary considerations to maintaining power and wealth of the elite political class? Is Harris the most malleable puppet the deep state political elite can manipulate? And not to be a conspiracy theorist, but consider the timing of such a defection by a steadfast Republican family from deep red Wyoming, coming on the heels of an assassination attempt on Harris’ political rival where the investigation has yielded nothing more than what appears to be a perfectly timed and alarmingly incompetent performance by the Secret Service as well as a peculiar ability of the shooter’s financially strapped family to retain one of the most prominent and exclusive defense attorneys in the country. Hmmm.

Biased Apple Sauce

So this morning, on Apple’s newsfeed, the “politics” section featured five stories, all of which were negative attacks on the Trump campaign. Of course, the culprits were the usual suspects: Rolling Stone, Huffington Post, and The Daily Beast. The latter two seem to make Trump bashing their reason d’etre, and Rolling Stone(d) just can’t seem to stay in their lane, suddenly suspecting they’re political pundits when they can barely manage substantive reporting on the music industry. And shame on Apple. With a recent mea culpa from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, admitting that his organization engaged in censorship by suppressing favorable stories on Republican candidates at the behest of the Biden Administration, we have to suspect that propagandizing is rampant in the tech industry and Apple is probably guilty of tipping the scales as well. There are 153 million iPhones in circulation in the United States, and users, especially youth, get their news from sources like Facebook, TikTok, and Apple. With so much attention lavished on preposterous Russia collusion accusations, we should probably take a closer look at organizations seeking to influence the election closer to home.
