Here we go again

I think this is attempt #5: "CA Man Arrested at Trump National Golf Club Was Armed to the Teeth." - "A man in California was arrested for watching the security setup at Trump National Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes. The president plans to visit the site later. The suspect was identified as Jeanine John Taele, 38, who was later found to have body armor, an illegally modified AR-15 rifle, ammunition, and a notebook with suspicious statements at his home." 

Dude is weird

Twitchy: "A Very Masculine James Talarico Wields a 'Blowtorch'." 

Remember when Dubya won the Presidency by 527 votes?

Ace: "Politico: NJ Democrat Officials Anonymously Admit Far More Illegals Are Registered to Vote Than the Governor "Mikie" Is Admitting; Some Think the Real Number Exceeds Trump's Estimate of 35,000."

Officials admit they have no idea how many illegals are enrolled to vote -- but they're totally sure it's not a problem and never effects any elections, not a single bingle one.

"Affects," Ace, "affects."

Governor Mikie told us that this mistake was discovered two years ago but, gosh!, we have no idea why the previous administration didn't do anything.  Yeah, it's a mystery.

Mamdani to starve married women

Irony can be pretty ironic: "Mamdani: You Need Voter, er, Eater ID to Buy Groceries at Commie Basket!"

The mayor's new supermarkets will require ID to keep our non-Big Apple residents.  What if you're a married woman who can't get an ID with your new name?  Drop dead.

Islam is the religion of peace

Also "Muslim Oxford Union President Tells Islam Critics That Without Security, They’d Be ‘Cooked’ by Mob."

Watch the video of the guy about to release a picture of Muhammad and the slow-boil panic that fills the room.

By the way, whatever happened to the Oxford Union, once held up as the premier debating society in the entire world?  It has devolved into woke shouting match of juveniles who are easily debunked. 

I really don't think "You're lucky we've got paid security to prevent you being murdered by Islamists for speaking at the world's oldest and most prestigious bastion of free expression" is quite the pro-immigration flex you think it is, love. https://t.co/Kg1wuq1Hgj

Cancel culture

Hollywood in Toto: "Yet Another Jewish Artist Cancelled (While Legacy Media Sleeps)." 

TFG

Peggy Noonan: "Anthony Fauci Unmasks Himself - His diaries make clear that he saw the pandemic less as a historic emergency than a media opportunity."

As has been reported, it isn’t about witnessing or capturing the size and scale of a crisis, or feeling shock or anxiety. It is about other things.

On Jan. 6, 2020, he goes to a “Super A list” party. At a meeting later that month, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi hugs and kisses him and tells everyone “how great I am.” At another, President Trump tells Dr. Fauci, “Lou Dobbs . . . told me that you were one of the smartest, knowledgeable and outstanding persons he knows.” Dr. Fauci was “very pleased,” others “stunned and impressed.”

Jan. 30: “All my friends kept saying I was a national hero” and that they “ ‘felt safe in my arms.’ ”

March 8: “Nice profiles of me in Politico and NY Times today.”

March 15: “I did all 5 Sunday Shows today (my 3rd ‘Fauci 5’).” Apparently this is his version of “the full Ginsburg,” named for Monica Lewinsky’s attorney, William Ginsburg, when he did five Sunday shows in one morning.

March 26: “Donuts are being named after me; T shirts have my picture on them.”

It goes on.  The media created this monster.

It's all a self-esteem hustle

Townhall: "The Virtue-Signaling Virus That Won't Die." 

Look at all the women and children

NY Post: "Thousands of illegal African migrants overrun Spanish enclave, turn streets into open toilets and bathe in fountains: ‘An apocalypse’." 

Once you decide how much somebody "needs"

All bets are off.  Twitchy: "Bernie Sanders Asks How ‘Poor’ Mark Zuckerberg Will Survive If CA Passes Wealth Tax."

Does Bernie really need three homes?  Can't he sell two to feed the poor?

Endgame in Iran

Victor Davis Hanson: "The Iran War at the Crossroads."

We know the tired Iranian strategy by now. We might call it “theocratic rope-a-dope.” For the theocrats and their terrorist proxies, survival means outlasting Trump, waiting for the next cash-laden Democratic administration, and using “moderates” to play good cop while haggling away months.

The mullahs and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps feign indifference even as their half-century, half-trillion-dollar investments in what is now essentially a vaporized military-industrial-nuclear complex continue to be destroyed.

The war has finally revealed the full extent of Iran’s vast conventional arsenal, nuclear program, and missile and drone industry.

The thing about the rope-a-dope strategy is that you're still being pummeled.  The Iranians don't seem to realize it but day by day their influence in the region wanes.  Countries and oil companies are adjusting with new pipelines and tanker routes.  Soon enough, it won't matter that the Strait of Hormuz is controlled (or not) by the Iranians.  The world will have moved on.

Hope you're happy now

PJ Media: "Anthony Fauci: The Man Who Destroyed America’s Trust in Science."

Fauci did this: "Confidence in U.S. Institutions Remains Near All-Time Low." 

Federalist: "Unless Fauci Is Held Accountable, America Will Never Recover From His Lies - Because of Fauci, the U.S. government’s disastrous pandemic response was based on a tangled web of lies and subterfuge." 

Get out

Hot Air: "NYTimes Shocked, Shocked to Find Immigration Enforcement in Airports!"

Ace: "Media Can't Stop Boo-Hoo Whinin' and Cryin' That Trump Is Deporting The Democrats' Best Voters." 

It's times like this I wonder if newspapers actually believe their own bullshit or if they're just pandering to their liberal readers.

This is quite the development

NY Post: "Immigrant-led business group votes to sue NYC over Mamdani’s taxpayer-funded grocery stores, alleging unfair competition."

An immigrant-led business group is gearing up to sue New York City over Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s controversial plan to open five taxpayer-funded supermarkets — claiming the $70 million project will create unfair competition for nearby stores, The Post has learned.

As the far-left mayor announced new details of his plan this week — including a 30% discount on basic items like produce, meat, milk, cheese and bread – the Multicultural Business Coalition’s board voted to file a lawsuit in the coming weeks to block the pricey initiative, the group’s chairman Frank Garcia told The Post. 

This whole government-run grocery store is so incredibly stupid on so many levels.

Never enough

Jonathan Turley: "The Fair Share Myth and Other Socialist Fables"

The fair share myth is a virtual mantra among socialist and Democratic leaders, from Mamdani to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) to Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.). In my book, “Rage and the Republic,” I address the false claim that the wealthy are not “paying their fair share.” In fact, the top 10 percent already pay more taxes than the bottom 90 percent combined.

In 2023, the top 1 percent paid an estimated 38.4 percent of all federal individual income taxes. One can certainly raise the need for additional taxes to support public works, but it is simple demagoguery to claim that the wealthy do not pay their fair share when the top 10 percent pay an estimated 75 percent of federal income taxes. The U.S. income tax system is already the most progressive in the developed world, even before additional New York state and city taxes are added in.

Turley also exposes the myth of the Nordic countries, always held up as "socialism" while their own leaders declare "we're not socialists." 

Massive ego trip

Federalist: "6 Years Later, Fauci’s Diary Confirms The Federalist Was Right About Everything." 

Looks like they ran out of other people's money

Townhall: "Democrats Mortgage Headquarters for $15 Million to Bail Out of Their Financial Fiasco."

That's the real crime

The Enterprise: "The Outsider the WNBA Cannot Forgive: The Caitlin Clark Problem."

The WNBA was handed the thing it had awaited for three decades, a player who could make the country care, and the country did. The arenas filled, the networks bid against one another, and the money came in torrents. At the precise moment the league should have been raising walls around the source of all of it, it kept reaching, instead, for the knife. Revealed preference is a stern teacher. Watch what the league does, not what it says, and you will know what it has decided Caitlin Clark is worth. So you may be asking what the real issue is and the answer to me is clear - the league is struggling with the fact that it took a straight white woman to make it relevant.

Sophie "The Pointer" Cunningham is coming up strong, too. 

At least she answered the questions

Red State: "DSA Co-Chair Confirms Its Extreme Agenda in Stunning Admission on Live TV."

The Sunday morning shows have become unwatchable because guests are asked simple questions and they inevitably respond with stump speeches and non-answers.  At least this woman laid it on the line.

Oh, sure, it's the cancer

Washington Post: "The shrinking world of former president Joe Biden - Cancer treatment has sharply limited Biden’s post-White House life even as his upcoming memoir threatens to reopen debates over his health and presidency."

You know I have no interest in talking about Joe Biden anymore (although I'll be interested to see how he rationalizes his Presidency in his memoir) but this gaslighting by the mainstream media is beyond the pale.  Biden isn't hiding because of his cancer.  He's hiding because he has been brain-addled for a very long time which is why he avoided the press for his entire Administration.
