“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”
“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Trident missile misfired and crashed into ocean during rare test launch
The Ministry of Defence said an “anomaly” occurred during the drill off the coast of Florida but insisted the nuclear deterrent “remains safe, secure and effective”.
A Trident missile has misfired and crashed into the ocean off the coast of Florida during a rare test launch by a British nuclear submarine in an embarrassing blow for the Royal Navy.
The Ministry of Defence on Tuesday night confirmed an “anomaly” had occurred with the drill involving HMS Vanguard, but a spokesperson insisted that the nuclear deterrent – the cornerstone of the UK’s defences – “remains safe, secure and effective”.
The fault had something to do with it being a test-firing, with a source saying that the launch would have been successful had it been carried out for real with a nuclear warhead.
The Sun newspaper first revealed the drama, which happened on 30 January, saying that Defence Secretary Grant Shapps had been onboard the submerged submarine at the time.
It is the second Trident missile failure in a row for the Royal Navy’s ageing nuclear weapons fleet after a problem with another test-firing in 2016.
The UK has four nuclear-armed submarines that are charged with ensuring one boat is continuously at sea to deter nuclear threats from enemies such as Russia and to be ready to respond should the worst happen and the UK or its allies face a nuclear attack.
Outlining what happened, The Sun said the Trident 2 missile was propelled successfully from under the water into the air by compressed gas in the launch tube.

British nuclear submarine missile misfires and ‘plops’ into the ocean with the Defence Secretary on board in latest naval embarrassment after £3bn warship pulled out of NATO drill at the last minute
The Trident 2 successfully ‘left the submarine’, but its first stage boosters did not ignite and the 58-ton missile ‘just went plop’ into the ocean next to the vessel and sank, an anonymous told The Sun.
Officials said they could not say any more because the incident relates to national security.
[…]HMS Vanguard carried out the doomsday drill off the coast of Florida on January 30.
Defence Secretary Grant Shapps was on-board the 150 metre vessel at the time of the incident.
[…]The Trident missile was expected to travel some 3,500 miles before splashing into the Atlantic Ocean, somewhere between West Africa and Brazil. But instead it landed next to the submarine.
[…]First Sea Lord Admiral Sir Ben Key was also present at the time to mark what was the final exercise for Vanguard and its crew after undergoing a refit that took more than seven years, an MoD spokesman said.

Last I knew, the U.K. is an island. So … they couldn’t test fire it off their own coast?
Exactly! Does any other country pull their weight?
This is staggeringly bad news!
What IF, our defense systems are nothing more than this, and the money taxed from us is stolen? What if we are like a WW11 ghost army without power?
I suspect this is accurate.
What if we have expended all of our weaponry in Ukraine and Israel and we have none left to defend our country?
I’m guessing that is the case
It would figure because we have a ghost presudent in office who misfires all the time.👀
“remains safe, secure and effective” – Wait what? Where have I heard this before? And since when have nuclear weapons EVER been safe?

Why aren’t we launching our Defense Secretary in nuclear submarine missiles?

Let’s hope not!
too large of a payload
Further surrender of the West’s military capabilities.
I worked on the Space Shuttle launch system at Cape Canaveral in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Port Canaveral docks were home to the submarines carrying Tridents. Water test launches just off the coast were a common sight.. Trident was a solid and reliable program that has had 40 years of refinement.
How might our quisling governments convince the citizens they need to suspend the operations a proven reliable worldwide nuclear missile capability? Scare them with stories of problems and failures of Tridents with nuclear warheads.
Here is a sample of the Western media’s talking points:
“This is the wider lesson from the Trident test failure: accidents happen with nuclear weapon systems, just as they do with any complex socio-technological system. But the consequences of things going wrong with nuclear weapons and the practice of nuclear deterrence in which they are embedded are enormous. This is particularly so in crises that can induce risk taking, misperception, and extreme stress.
The consequences could be the detonation of tens, hundreds, or even thousands of nuclear warheads, causing catastrophic harm.
Proponents of nuclear deterrence might accept this risk by arguing that it is very small. Yet we cannot know that and we should not deceive ourselves by thinking nuclear weapons are intrinsically safe and nuclear deterrence is foolproof. They are not and, given the consequences of failure, it is why a majority of states voted at the UN General Assembly in October 2016 to begin a formal process to ban nuclear weapons.”

And to FULLY receive ALL THE GRACE that comes with this POWER, YOU (yes, YOU…YOU), must acknowledge it, kneel before it, pray upon it, sing about it, dance from it, a joyous delightful exhilarating moment of FULL FAITH that does not look upon the physical…only the supernatural, goodness that can only be experienced when in recognition OF THE FATHER. THE ONE AND ONLY FATHER.
YOU do this, and your life become meaningful beyond any thing “comprehensible”. You becomes BLESSED BE GOD.
DO THIS. Subject yourself ..your true and personal self to God, the almighty, in sincere prayer.
You do this not to become more powerful, but because you NEED GOD.

I heard someone say today, I think it was Katie Pavelich say that seems like Nikki maybe seeing how well she can fair in getting votes and she may drop out and get on the No Labels Ballot and run for them. But I thought that they had to sign a pledge that they would not run an any other race if they ran in the Republican Primary. She may not really care if she thinks she can win. Her had has really a big ego bust by all this money they’re throwing her way.

US money is still being spent on Ukraine despite Congress not passing the $91 billion.
The money is coming from the US Army budget which has been left to foot the bill for hundreds of millions of dollars (actual figure $431 million so far) for training Ukrainian troops, transporting equipment from other PDA “packages” to Poland and then to Ukraine, and US troop deployments to Europe. Army officials are increasingly concerned that without new funding, they will have to pull money from other critical projects to continue supporting Kiev.
The Army expected that the money would be repaid in the supplemental funding for Ukraine.
Hmm so the concept of “repayment” is not a totally foreign concept to the US govt eh?

All Vaccines Are EVIL!
Thank goodness my wife worked part-time for a pediatrician after PA school in addition to her full-time ER job. He had a shot schedule we used for our son: no more than 2 at a time. Standard shot schedule has 3 at a time. He said the newborn/infant’s immune system can’t handle that much at one time.
Anecdotally, his practice didn’t see much ADHD, etc.
To me it makes sense.
Man running for Agricultural commissioner talked to a group of us tonight. He said mRNA nanoparticle technology was being used to target plant viruses through pesticide sprays, fertilizers, and seeds. These mRNA substances will target diseases that are now hard to eradicate and increase crop yield exponentially. I came home and looked it up and found a couple of links online, but no real discussion. One company even mentions gene therapy.
I am sure that these companies intend to experiment on us consumers. It makes me very wary of almost anything that is sold in a store today whether processed or fresh………sigh………

He also told us that a lot of foreign beef is coming into the US. A herd of cattle from Mexico can be brought into the US, stay for 24 hours on US soil before being sent to the slaughterhouse, and then can be sold and labelled as US beef. This low-price competition is hurting US cattle farmers.
And big AG is sending the US beef to which country again?
Here’s something else new.
We called our vet to get some BoSe, which is short for Bovine Selenium, a shot we give our baby livestock to prevent white muscle disease, which kills. Our soils are selenium deficient so the hay is also.
Vet said they don’t have any, it’s a nation-wide shortage. They do have a specialty salt, made up just for our area, with the selenium in it, and we don’t need the BoSe.
What’s the rest of the country doing? What are the cattlemen elsewhere going to do in calving season? We’re going to lose calves to white muscle. I could see herds getting smaller, beef prices going up in a while.
Who makes the BoSe? Is this another case of the raw materials are made in China?

I am beyond sick about it also. Hopefully he is bluffing because that will not be a serious loyal member of any team.
Tim Scott is a spineless pencilneck – caves to the apparatus upon the slightest indication that such is wanted.
Endorses Lisa Murkowski – Good grief, no one doing that has the Ameican people first. Or second, or third, or in the top 100 objectives.
Hee named several under consideration.
Trolling?
Or seeing what sort of reaction he gets from his supporters…
Let’s call it pre-vetting.
I am hopeful he was getting audiance reactions and maybe realizes Scott is not MAGA. I will support him and his decision but Scott is a kick in the teeth at this point.
President Trump like to play with peoples heads, especially media peeps
He does. That’s why i am not bothered at this point.
I’m sorry it’s really not Presidential, don’t like it at all
It’s simply what the first MAGA president has to do. Doesn’t bother me.
😂😂😂 President Trump is the Most Honorable Presidential President ever! Besides the “not presidential” card ha been so over played and got outdated after all the “mean tweets” proved correct and not mean afterall. 😂😂
It’s what every President has done, except we live in an age where you do it in the open instead of secretly. It’s not for the faint hearted who aren’t in the heat of battle between good and evil so I understand your dismay.
Or just trolling.
A reply to a TS comment of mine yesterday said if Trump keeping TS name our there as VP possibility keeps POTUS 44 “wife” from considering, then he was fine with that.
Seemed a good possibility.

Oh please no. He is a snake in the grass and has shown his true intentions toward PTrump. For me this would be a huge mistake. Huge. However, PTrump is in charge so it’s his choice. Just a big yuck for me. Scott is not Maga.
Only said it because of SC primary!
Omg you are probably correct. You have me off the ledge now. Thank you.

That’s what I thought also…
Laura named him in list of names and since a stupid, leading question, he answered without actually answering. TGP trying to give the pretenders creditability. President Trump gave a party-unifying answer that alienates Neeki. They all be on the short shirt but you can be sure President Trump has a “even shorter than short list”.
Did you see the rest of his list? Not just Scott. There are others he mentioned.
Based on the responses above if I did not know any better I’d assume President Trump said Scott is his pick. The actual headline:
Trump Names Tim Scott Among Top Contenders for 2024 VP — Shortlist Also Includes DeSantis, Ramaswamy, Donalds, Noem, and Gabbard: “They’re All Good. They’re All Solid”
Carson?
He would be on the “really short list”!
The name of the best contender is missing.
Kari Lake.
NO
Devin Nunes
Meatball 😂😂😂😂😂
-0h sure
None of those listed are solid in any way. Looks like a political appeal to those who think Trump should be inclusive. An appeal with no intention of actual follow through IMO, after all Trump didn’t say it was a definitive list.

“After dismissing the case, U.S. District Judge Linda Parker, of the Eastern District of Michigan, ordered sanctions for the Trump-aligned lawyers, describing the lawsuit as a “historic and profound abuse of the judicial process.”
“Sanctions are required to deter the filing of future frivolous lawsuits designed primarily to spread the narrative that our election processes are rigged and our democratic institutions cannot be trusted,” Parker wrote in the 110-page opinion.
The Trump lawyers were ordered to pay back attorneys’ fees accumulated by Michigan state officials and Detroit in seeking the sanctions — and to take legal education classes. Parker also referred her decision to disciplinary authorities where each attorney is admitted for “investigation and possible suspension or disbarment.”
“historic and profound abuse of the judicial process.”

They like to hide behind stern words under color of law and revel in lording it over others by a stroke of their pen. How they’d moan and whimper, though, should the innocent targets of their abuse of power strike them over and over with the cat ‘o nine tails or the horse whip, before putting the hangman’s noose around their necks and saying to them:
“This is your deserved wage for your unjust life. Into the fires of hell you will go, with all eternity to regret in agony your high handedness and petulant arrogance on the earth towards innocent men. You will burn forever and ever and ever, and your flesh will never be consumed but allways be burning, curling, smoking, flaking and black; with full consciousness of the pain of body and agony of mind.”
I am surprised, but I can’t find any fault with the first sentence. If we can survive that long.
I have zero plans to remove. I will remain and watch the fear passed by and after me…untouched my it. I am not nervous about pain. I underSTAND why is exists and how to place it.

Same response from another federal judge who threw out Trump’s lawsuit against Hillary Clinton. The judge viewed Russiagate as a joke
Trump sued Clinton, his 2016 presidential challenger, for allegedly “acting in concert” with top FBI leadership to invent what became known as the Russia investigation into interference in the 2016 election. Trump had argued that the Russia probe was “prolonged and exacerbated by the presence of a small faction of Clinton loyalists who were well-positioned within the Department of Justice.”

Supreme Court Could Set Landmark Precedent In Trump Jan. 6 Case | ZH
The ‘Outer Perimeter’
Presidential immunity from judicial review has been broadly upheld since Marbury v. Madison in 1803. Although the case established judicial review over executive branch decisions, Chief Justice John Marshall’s majority opinion criticized the idea that courts had jurisdiction over a president’s discretion.
“The province of the court is, solely, to decide on the rights of individuals, not to inquire how the executive, or executive officers, perform duties in which they have a discretion,” he wrote.
Presidential immunity’s contours, however, are blurry in part because the Constitution doesn’t explicitly define the doctrine. Instead, a series of court decisions and DOJ opinions have interpreted the Constitution to provide a general outline of how presidents should be shielded from prosecution.
President Trump’s brief cites two Supreme Court decisions—Mississippi v. Johnson and Nixon v. Fitzgerald—in which the judiciary used suits against former Presidents Andrew Johnson and Richard Nixon to define the limitations of judges in reviewing presidential actions.
In Mississippi v. Johnson, the court denied Mississippi’s request to prevent President Johnson from enforcing the Reconstruction Acts because, the court said, it had “no jurisdiction of a bill to enjoin the President in the performance of his official duties.”
The court also distinguished between ministerial duties, or a straightforward adherence to the law, and discretionary duties, which involve the president’s exercising his judgment as to how he should carry out responsibilities assigned by Congress. Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase’s majority opinion quoted Chief Justice Marshall in describing meddling in the executive’s “prerogatives” as “an extravagance, so absurd and excessive.”
Former Justice Lewis Powell went further in Nixon v. Fitzgerald by ruling that President Nixon had “absolute immunity” from civil liability related to “official acts” within the “outer perimeter” of his authority. How far that “outer perimeter” extends is the subject of debate. In this case, the Court ruled that that authority included dismissing a federal employee—A. Ernest Fitzgerald—who alleged unlawful retaliation for testimony he gave to Congress.

NY village ‘losing its soul’ as nation’s oldest gun manufacturer flees blue state for Georgia
Excerpt:
The Remington gun factory nestled in New York’s Mohawk Valley is ready to shutter its doors and move to Georgia after more than 200 years in the Empire State. …..
…..The closure of the New York location will result in about 300 people losing their jobs in a town of roughly 7,600. The mayor of Ilion told the Daily Mail that the village is expected to lose $1 million in revenue due to the move, in addition to other local businesses taking a financial hit.

Whatever about a mass strike, which comes with some risk and cost to those who undertake it, it would be great if we could organize a mass fund raising effort on Trump behalf to help him fight the lawfare.
If 3 million people chip in $100 each that’s 300 million dollars. Some people with a mass audience would need to be promoting the idea though.
In 2020, Trump raised $774M, more than half from donors giving $200 or less. The good news is your theory isn’t wrong. The bad news is to cover that bs fine, he would have to increase his 2020 haul by 50%.
On the strike front, I think we need a CONSUMPTION strike not a labor movement type of strike. One of the Government Party’s centers of gravity is consumer spending fueled GDP.
A consumer spending strike, properly targeted, can do massive damage. It cannot be co-opted. There are no rallies to infiltrate. There is no weapon against inaction.
An example would be millions of people deciding to move their money out of Bank of America or Wells Fargo, and put it into credit unions. Or, mass cancellations (or reductions) of insurance policies.
The media – especially streaming media – is seeing subscriber flight. Bud Light, of course. Also, the military is seeing a version of the principle of inaction – despite lowering standards, their recruitment is way down because their leaders care about trannies and elevate unqualified women and minorities. Three lost major wars in 24 years is creating white flight.
A good consumer strike picks a business, targets it, and abandons it permanently. Take down a business, or damage it for 6-8 months, then target a new one.
I would also encourage strikes against the judiciary in particular. Jury duty would be a great target. Make ourselves ungovernable, make it impossible for them to put us on juries. Not by being overt but by being hilariously passive aggressive and uncooperative. The judiciary has a HUGE problem now thanks to New York: the system is so completely corrupt that judges are levying fines for none crimes simply in hopes of bankrupting a candidate so he can’t run for office. That’s corrupt on a level that destroys the legitimacy of the entire system.
Crash it through non-participation and deliberate intransigence.
Great post. I think it’s already happening. The Big Giant Woke Companies (I am also looking at you, EV builders) are hemmoraging cash, which in turn leads to mass layoffs, which in turn leads to horrible unemployment with zero chance of re-employment and a bunch of pissed off Americans who aren’t going to vote for more of it. Then the anti-capitalist ourobos eats itself because those people aren’t buying more products.
In other words, they are doing it to themselves.
Three lost major wars in 24 years is creating white flight. – Three (two – three if you count Ukraine) wars that had no discernable goal and actually created more bedlam and death as an outcome. Guess who is still in charge of those three countries and also the governments that started them?

Ross Perot ticket splitting got Clinton elected. So why would they change. Nikki Splinter
To be fair, the ticket splitter was GHWB. Perot was Trump v0.5
Perot, and also Pat Buchanan, was really the first populist wave that eventually became the Tea Party and then MAGA. They were Normal America trying to fight the system.
Everyone knew Perot was unelectable, including himself. Everyone knew he was poaching right leaning independents. This is also Nikki’s goal. But it is good to know that Perot was Trump before Trump was Trump.
Haley couldn’t split two marbles.
Everybody…and I mean everybody who thinks they are conservative needs to read The Death Of The West. If you haven’t read that book you are clueless about what is really going on.
Ben Carson…
Our next Vice President.
God Bless him.
Amen.
From your lips to God’s ear.
So Russian nuclear weapons from Mars didn’t work, so hey, let’s try the old ‘The Army is going broke’ routine. And if they did rob from the Army to finance the comedians folly, well, let that facilitate McShumer’s treason.

DeSantis at SC State House: “There’s no doubt that South Carolina is going to be a big victory for Donald Trump because he appeals to core Republicans in a way that Nikki Haley does not or is not trying to.

Here’s a Dem Presidential Campaign switcheroo for ya:
Kamel/Shapiro ticket
Just ponder that plan.
Camelface is not popular in her own party. Not that matters anymore.
Get out of NY investments…
I don’t even know what to think about this. I do know I don’t really like any of them as the choice. But I’m not choosing. Hope it works out. DeSantis? Really? He’s got to be kidding. Right?
“Ingraham: The audience has been asked who they think would be a good choice, and various names came up. One of them was, of course, Vivek Ramaswamy. He’s made a big splash. Ron DeSantis, who’s making an appearance today in South Carolina, we just found out. Obviously, Tim Scott, Byron Donalds, and a big presence here for Tulsi Gabbard. Very interesting. And Kristi Noem as well, I should say. Are they all on your short list?
Trump: They are.”
No worries Cjzak.
President Trump has everything under control.
He will pick the best Vice President you have ever known!
The Vice President will be just what MAGA needs: A Trumpian Insurance Policy.
MAGA
Stay Frosty and Strapped
This not first time you have expressed this today so must really be bothering you. Laura named him in list of names and since a stupid, leading question, he answered without actually answering. TGP trying to give the pretenders creditability. President Trump gave a party-unifying answer that alienates Neeki. They all be on the short shirt but you can be sure President Trump has a “even shorter than short list”, the “reeeeeeallly short list”. Do not let TGP misleading headline get in your head and for God’s sake, actually read what was said and who said what. This will save you from fear and worry getting in the way of critical thinking.
