In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.
“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.”
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

It’s all a Big Destroy President Trump Racket – Judge’s daughter works for Adam Schiff who brought impeachment charges against President Trump and rehabilitated Michael Cohen!
Ties Between Judge Merchan’s “Child” and Adam Schiff Represent Major Conflict in Hush Money Trial
Loren Merchan’s firm was paid $4 million by Adam Schiff at the same time he conspired with Michael Cohen to take down Donald Trump. Cohen will be a witness in Judge Merchan’s courtroom next month.
At the end of 2019, Representative Adam Schiff, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, was leading the first impeachment effort against President Donald Trump.
After months of making accusations and conducting Congressional inquiries related to Trump’s July 2019 call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky—a conversation Democrats described as a “quid pro quo” attempting to trade military aid for an investigation into the Biden family’s corrupt business deals—Schiff and six other Democrats delivered articles of impeachment to the Senate in January 2020.
That same month, Schiff’s campaign committee paid a new Chicago-based consulting firm $600,000 for digital media buys presumably to spread the word via email, text, and social media/online advertisements that the California congressman planned to oust Trump.
The firm, Authentic Campaigns, is headed by Loren Merchan, the 34-year-old daughter of the New York judge now overseeing the so-called hush money case against Trump. Judge Juan Merchan just set an April 15 trial date for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s multi-count indictment accusing Trump of falsifying business records related to a payout made to former porn star Stormy Daniels over an alleged sexual encounter. (Trump repeatedly denies the allegation.)
Contrary to hand-wringing assertions that the former president and his allies are unfairly “attacking” Judge Merchan’s “child,” Loren Merchan’s lucrative contracts with some of Trump’s most prolific enemies are fair game.

If I am not mistaken, Cohen had the affair with Daniels.
Schiffty Schiff sure has a lot of $$$$ to throw around, considering he makes $200,000/year. I wonder where it comes from. /s
Wife of Judge In Trump ‘Hush Money’ Trial Worked for AG Letitia James

Former President Donald Trump declared that the November election will be “Christian Visibility Day” in opposition to President Joe Biden’s declaration of “Transgender Day of Visibility” on March 31, which coincided with Easter Sunday this year.
“Election Day, November 5th, will be the most important day in the History of our Country. It will also be Christian Visibility Day, the biggest turnout of Christians in the history of our Country!” the former president declared on his Truth Social account.

“Not All There” Joe IS running the Destroy President Trump using Lawfare campaign
‘Disturbing’ Collusion Between Biden White House and Trump Prosecutors
An explosive defense motion filed in the classified documents case detailed extensive collaboration between prosecutors and top Biden officials to get Trump. But what does Jack Smith want to hide?
But as Smith prepares for trial in Washington and southern Florida, defense attorneys have uncovered a stunning trove of evidence that contradict claims that the Biden White House had nothing to do with the unprecedented federal prosecution of a former president and Biden’s GOP rival in the 2024 general election. Emerging evidence also shows collaboration between White House officials and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ office related to her RICO indictment against Trump and several associates.
According to a lengthy defense motion filed January 16 in the classified documents case in Florida, the “disturbing” collusion extended beyond Biden’s in-house lawyers and involved multiple government agencies dating back to January 2021. Those agencies include the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), the National Security Council, the FBI’s Counterintelligence division, the intelligence community, the Secret Service, and the Department of Energy.
“The FOIA releases, coupled with other evidence scattered throughout more than 1.2 million pages of discovery, reflect close participation in the investigation by NARA and Biden Administration components such as the White House Counsel’s Office, as well as senior officials at DOJ and FBI. These revelations are disturbing but not surprising,” the attorneys wrote.

This is INSURRECTION and SEDITION by Biden, the Bolshevik democrat party, Obama, Hillary, etc. to OVERTHROW our ELECTIONS and Constitution.
I think we should stop referring this to “ Lawfare” and instead personalize it.

Some Basic Law Stuff for Conservatives Watching This Legal Chaos
For those of you who don’t live in the legal world every day like I do, being a simple Los Angeles trial lawyer, a lot of the legal stuff you see going on surrounding Trump and Trump-affiliated people might seem like chaos. Well, it is chaos. It’s complete chaos. There is almost no resemblance between what is happening with Trump and the law as normally practiced among normal people in normal times. Remember, there’s a Trump Exception to all the rules and all the norms that rejects any kind of precedent and procedure, as well as simple fairness, in its pursuit of the Bad Orange Man and his allies. When you understand that, you will understand why I shake my head when people ask me my legal opinion about what’s going on. My legal opinion about what’s going on is it has nothing to do with the law at all.
Understand that what we’re seeing now are attempts to frame Donald Trump and people affiliated with him to abuse and misuse the legal system to gain a political advantage. This is nothing new. It is something scumbags have been doing for thousands of years. Remember, Caesar crossed the Rubicon with his legion because if he had left his troops behind, they were going to prosecute him into oblivion. Lawfare is nothing new – its modern practitioners just better hope they don’t end up provoking warfare, too.
When you’re looking at news reports of legal matters involving Trump or Trump-friendly people, understand that you are probably not going to get an accurate story. To do that, you have to come here. You have to come to me.

Thanks!!
Be careful with Schlichter and Townhall. They tend to be NeverTrump when there is a choice and ProTrump when the choice is over. But even while playing dutiful ProTrump, you can rely on them to rebroadcast NeverTrump columnists like Ann Coulter.
Also, look at their page sometime. The summaries are always clickbait. Hiding something and teasing the viewer to get them to click to find out.
Feisty, thank you for your input — sincerely. However, a person would have to be braindead if this lawfare debacle appeared anywhere close to a legal norm. This is insanity. It is a totalitarian Twilight Zone with crazed oligarchs on steroids abusing their power.

Unlike dutchman, I am holding out a sliver of hope that The Firebrands are laying low in attempt to keep the drama off of the “republican” party and instead, focus on attacking the commie dems and Biden during this election year. Then, once PDJT is in office The Firebrands will be activated and the RINOs dealt with. It could be false hope but for 2024 that is what I am choosing to do.
This year I will vote all R down ballot just to give the RINOs the landslide majority that they do not want. If this forces them to have all of their corrupt buddies retire in order to lose their Big Beautiful Majority then that is still great for America. If we cannot vote them out of office then we will keep handing them a supermajority forcing them to purge their senior ranks with massive retirements. Okay. Let’s Play.
They repeat the Gaetz bad talking points over and over again. Never giving a solution. Didn’t like McCarthy now Gaetz is bad for getting him out.

Six of NYC migrant squatter crew set loose without bail after gun and drug bust as neighbors detail chaos on Bronx block
Six of the eight gun-toting, drug-dealing migrant squatters busted last week in the Bronx were cut loose without bail — as frustrated neighbors said Tuesday that the unruly, noise crew brought nothing but trouble to the block.
The NYPD collared the squatters — who set up shop across the street from PS 56 inside a multi-family house on Hull Avenue in the borough’s Norwood section — after one of them pointed a 9 mm CZ pistol at someone on the property last Wednesday night, police officials said.
“I see all the gangsters and wannabe gangsters running around here,” one neighbor told The Post.
The alleged gunman, Hector Desousa-Villalta, was cut loose on supervised release Friday evening by Bronx Criminal Court Judge Eugene D. Bowen — despite the district attorney’s request that Bowen set bail at $150,000 cash or $450,000 bond, according to the DA’s office.
The same judge released two other squatters — Yoessy Pino Castillo and Jefferson Orlando Abreau — on their own recognizance after their Friday arraignments, according to the DA’s office and court records.
Bronx Criminal Court Judge Laurence Busching let three more — Yojairo Martinez, Johan Cardenas Silva, Yerbin Lozado-Munoz — walk on supervised released after their respective hearings, court records said.

Perhaps election fraud explains it, Bubby.
That’s funny. I’m glad the judges let them all go. Hopefully, the police had to give them their guns and drugs back too. Maybe they can even move back into the house.
Elections have consequences. I hope that New York City enjoys every one of those consequences, too!

Reality check it’s not going to happen Lawfare will tie President Trump in Court for 4 years when he tries to deport illegal aliens aka Democrat supporters/voters!! Remember when he tried to end obama’s EO on amnesty for illegals aka the Unconstitutional DACA? EOs by Democrat Presidents can’t be overridden by EOs of Republican Presidents according to our leftist Federal Judiciary! But I’m confident President Trump will try!!! JMO. Godspeed President Trump!!!
Perhaps they will do that. Perhaps they will succeed. But nothing good will happen if he does not try. Good thing that you are not in PDJT’s inner circle giving him advice to not even try.
PDJT knows that his children and grandchildren will not have a moment of peace if he fails in this mission. At least his is out there fighting them and risking it all.
I never gave that advice that he not try!!! I pray for President Trump. I never give him advice. Go read the https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2024/03/21/guidelines-for-comments-7 before you falsely accuse another Treeper. Either that or improve your reading comprehension skills. All I was pointing out is difficulty of deporting the Democrats and Uniparty new base of constituents. My guess is Lawfare has already prepared legal briefs to stop any deportations even of criminals. “But I’m confident President Trump will try!!!” It’s good to know that you know what “PDJT knows”! You must be one of his advisors!
“Reality check it’s not going to happen”
“Lawfare will tie up President Trump for 4 years”

Putting Democrats in Power Forever
A significant uptick has been reported in voter registrations without a photo ID in three critical swing states: Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Texas.
The conservative advocacy group End Wokeness brought this trend to light on Tuesday, citing figures that point to a surge since the start of 2024, with Texas experiencing a staggering 1,250,710 such registrations, Pennsylvania with 580,513, and Arizona recording 220,731.
Under the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA), states are mandated to verify the information of newly registered voters. While the act requires verification against state Motor Vehicle Administration databases, individuals without a driver’s license can register using the last four digits of their Social Security Number (SSN).
From the Gateway Pundit.
An ITIN issued for filing taxes when you don’t qualify for a SSN, mirrors a Social Security card.
I’m guessing you just provide the last 4 digits without presenting the card anyway

Ex-Trump aide Hope Hicks expected to testify in former president’s New York criminal trial
Excerpt:
Hicks told the Democratic-controlled House Judiciary Committee in 2019 that she was not involved with the hush money discussions, and she told the FBI that she did not “to the best of her recollection” become aware of Daniels’ allegations until early November 2016.
After the Democratic chair of the committee questioned the “apparent inconsistencies” in Hicks’ testimony following the 2019 unsealing of the FBI affidavit, Hicks’ lawyer Robert Trout said in a statement, “Reports claiming that Ms. Hicks was involved in conversations about ‘hush-money’ payments on Oct. 8, 2016, or knew that payments were being discussed, are simply wrong.”

So, who’s a threat to democracy?
Øbama did it too. Ø abused every power of his office, and weaponized agency of government…starting from day one of his tenure.
Remember the Gibson guitar raid (on behalf of a competitor donor) under the guise of some environmental regulation by OSHA?
Remember the IRS scandal wherein Øbama had the IRS deny tax exempt status to conservative non-profit organizations and charities like True the Vote?
Remember how Øbama even joked about targeting conservative opponents in his speeches?
Biden is Obama.

Bobby Jr. even used democracy in the correct sense.
He is a worthy opponent of Trump, unlike Biden. Like a reverse of the Mittens-Obama charade.
“The neighborhood was outraged after six migrant squatters allegedly engaged in illicit activities were released without bail, according to the New York Post. Judge Eugene D. Bowen from the Bronx Criminal Court let Hector Desousa-Villalta go on supervised release last Friday night, even though the district attorney wanted his bail set at either $150,000 in cash or $450,000 bond, says the DA’s office, New York Post stated.”
“Bowen also let two more people, Yoessy Pino Castillo and Jefferson Orlando Abreau, go without bail after their court appearances Friday, as the DA’s office and court records show, New York Post reported. Another judge from the same court, Laurence Busching, allowed three additional individuals — Yojairo Martinez, Johan Cardenas Silva, and Yerbin Lozado-Munoz — to leave on supervised release after their court dates.”
Yet in their psychotic minds, Trump is the biggest threat to NYC. I have a difficult time feeling sorry for the people who voted for this.

The Weaponization Of The Secret Service Has Put Bobby Kennedy’s Life At Risk |
Secret Service records recently revealed the agency’s conclusions that Kennedy is at “elevated risk,” and after reviewing credible armed threats against Kennedy, the agency assembled eight teams to step in quickly after the go-ahead. But they never got it.
The threat to Kennedy is particularly acute because of his controversial politics and his family history—his father, RFK, Sr., a U.S. senator and presidential candidate, and his uncle, John F., a U.S. president, were both assassinated. RFK Jr. has provoked and challenged some of the most powerful forces in our country, especially concerning the military-industrial complex, the CIA, and endless foreign wars that so enrich defense contractors.
Biden’s motive in denying protection is not based on historical precedent, the threats and dangers Kennedy faces, existing laws, or the slightest compassion for a political family that has suffered so grievously
If another Kennedy is killed while campaigning for president, it will be a long-lasting, traumatic stain on the American psyche that will scar the soul of our democracy for decades to come. Unfortunately, we live in violent, polarized times. The United States has surpassed 400 mass shootings in 2023, a record-breaking year in gun violence.
The perils to any Kennedy running for office are self-evident.
The puzzling thing is that Biden has spent decades transfixed by the Kennedy mystique, tracing his interest in politics to John F. Kennedy. He was a long-time friend of JFK’s brother, Sen. Ted Kennedy, and has a bust of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy exhibited prominently in the Oval Office. Biden employs four members of the Kennedy family as ambassadors and special assistants. In fact, he admired RFK Sr. so much that he lifted some lines from one of his speeches without attribution in 1988. Perhaps Biden imagines himself as the Irish Catholic reincarnation of the Kennedys. Is it now possible that Biden resents Robert Kennedy Jr. for taking away that long-held dream?
President Biden knows that the Kennedy family has paid an unendurable, heartbreaking price for decades of enlightened public service. What would Biden ever say to Ethel Kennedy, Bobby’s mother, if he were assassinated? Her husband and her brother-in-law were brutally murdered while serving their country. Two of her sons are already dead, perhaps from lingering trauma suffered from coping from their father’s so public assassination.
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/weaponization-secret-service-has-put-bobby-kennedys-life-risk
Biden would say he didn’t know who did it and then say he was in the limo when JFK was shot.
RFK Jr.’s greatest threat is from those who stand to be harmed by his competition to Biden or his election.

Prof. John Mearsheimer Dissects Catastrophic US Foreign Policy: Israel-Gaza, Russia, China, & More | SYSTEM UPDATE #252
☝️☝️☝️ Glenn Greenwald..starts at 18:00
It is well known that Hamas USES innocents to hide behind. They use women and children as human shields. They use Red Cross ambulances to travel to and fro, to store and trnsport weapons. They aso moved the Brodutch hostage family to another place after the apartment block of the Palestinian family she was being held was bombed. So IMO-DONT HANG OUT WITH HAMAS whoever you are. Just about ALL men in Gaza are HAMAS. So thats MY OPINION.
The occupants have been identified in the Daily Mail. Are you saying that former Royal Marine James Henderson or former SBS soldier John Chapman were Hamas-affiliated and “hiding” something that would warrant a strike? Halevi already called the murderous strike a “a grave mistake.”
The problem is that Israel is fighting an asymmetric enemy….mainly because it’s roots are in terrorism. There is no set battlefield, it is house to house-school to school-hospital to hospital fight to flush them out. Hamas uses any and every means to hide themselves in every day ordinary functions. When a symmetric army fights an asymmetric army, the rate of collateral damage increases exponentially and those who use known Hamas tools (ie, aid vehicles, hospitals, schools, aid camps) have wittingly or unwittingly placed themselves right in the midst of the battlefield.
Unfortunately, collateral damage occurs in every war. It doesn’t mean the cause isn’t just or that Israel ( in this instance) should step down. JMHO
Prayers for their families.
It isn’t just or legal! Israel is a criminal organization masquerading as a country at this point!
Do Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis next.
The strike occurred in an ISR-approved deconflicted zone. Therefore, it was out of the bounds of “war,” which would encompass any “collateral damage.” Also, it is asymmetric due to one side having an army, navy, and air force, while the other “side” does not possess these.
It’s because they are not a country. Just an melting pot of different groups controlled by Hamas. But, quite able to lob rockets into Israel for years.
So suddenly my comments are “Awaiting Approval.” Duly noted that on this particular topic that this occurs. I have not violated any rules, but am parsing out facts as they are reported. Is that not allowed on Conservative Treehouse? Or is it encouraged on some topics, but not others?
Comments are hand moderated – if there are several, yes, it may take a few minutes.
I don’t understand your use of “suddenly”. You have only made three comments total at CTH (all today), and they have all been approved. Any new commenter goes through moderation until their first comment is approved. That is true for everyone.
Can you assure us they are not cia operatives?
So you think a former Royal Marine of Britain was a member of US intel services? I don’t know who they are/were other than what is being reported. Facts are incredibly hard to obtain. Maybe this strike occurred because they are using AI to select targets and strikes.
From the Guardian, “After the 11-day war in Gaza in May 2021, officials said Israel had fought its “first AI war” using machine learning and advanced computing.
The latest Israel-Hamas war has provided an unprecedented opportunity for the IDF to use such tools in a much wider theatre of operations and, in particular, to deploy an AI target-creation platform called “the Gospel”, which has significantly accelerated a lethal production line of targets that officials have compared to a “factory”.
The slowly emerging picture of how Israel’s military is harnessing AI comes against a backdrop of growing concerns about the risks posed to civilians as advanced militaries around the world expand the use of complex and opaque automated systems on the battlefield.
A short statement on the IDF website claimed it was using an AI-based system called Habsora (the Gospel, in English) in the war against Hamas to “produce targets at a fast pace”.
Who’s spewing propaganda now?
At the beginning of the campaign, there were approximately 25,000 Hamas. Israel has killed or captured approximately half.
This is out of millions living in the Gaza strip.
May want to try that somewhere else.
Okay, then Israel waits until the terrorists are not hiding behind innocent aid workers!
That’s what the law requires and it’s not an opinion!
Now do the Palestinian creed to eliminate all Jews for me.
Larry is a Jew-Basher. meh.
Shit happens in war. All this carnage was caused by Hamas. They broke the Cease-fire and now demand another one.
Should have kept the Cease-fire you had, monsters.
Tell all the Hamas leadership in Rafah, in Qatar and in Martha’s Vineyard: your Day has arrived and your Day is Done, rats.
The name calling really

So…how would you explain
Glenn Greenwald coverage.
Its the same tactic used
when people were trying
to find the truth about
the Russia-Ukraine SMO.
The favorite shut down

Puppet…Russian propaganda
blah…blah…blah….
The more people try to
shut down a conversation
by using the “trigger words”
the more you know they
Really don’t want the topic
discussed..
It is more a signal of….
Something isn’t right.

THIS IS SCARY
Yesterday, a group of people in Scotland protested a new hate speech law. “The irony of this hateful, spiteful law coming into play on April’s Fools Day…” said one of the protesters. “Criminalizing free speech in this country is absolutely disgraceful.”…
….You might think this all has nothing to do with you. You don’t live in Scotland. But it has everything to do with you.

“America First” In Name Only
PEDRO GONZALEZ
On July 26, Donald Trump headlined the America First Agenda Summit, hosted by the America First Policy Institute (AFPI), the nonprofit known in Trump world as “the White House in waiting.” The event—followed a story in Axios about AFPI’s supposed part in a plan for purging “ thousands of civil servants and filling career posts with loyalists to [Trump] and his ‘America First’ ideology” if he were to be reelected.
But there is one problem: AFPI is the swamp; it is run, staffed, and affiliated with the worst people from the Trump White House, who undermined the America First mandate and who promoted the interests of the establishment during Trump’s presidency.
Belying its populist put-ons was a roster of establishmentarians, from Sen. Lindsey Graham to Rep. Kevin McCarthy and Newt Gingrich.
Republican Sen. Joni Ernst demanded “that we absolutely annihilate the Russian forces, and we get them to crawl back into Russia so bloody and bruised that they can’t come back.” Rep. Mike Waltz called for U.S. personnel to get “directly into the war to operate U.S. weapons systems alongside Ukrainian forces.”
Of course, there is nothing “America First” about the foreign policy promoted by these Republicans.
Jared Kushner created the office in 2017 with the help of Reed Cordish, whose wife is a friend of Jared’s wife, Ivanka Trump. In April that year, Trump prepared a directive to review the H-1B visa program, which is commonly used by corporations to replace American-born workers with lower-paid immigrants. Through the OAI, Kushner and Cordish used that corporate pressure as leverage to undermine the president’s efforts. Sources told the technology news website Recode that “tech executives, including Apple CEO Tim Cook and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, received an early warning about Trump’s coming directive on a call” with Kushner, who “convened them and other executives as part of his tech-focused efforts with the White House’s new Office of American Innovation.”
CNBC, for example, called the rise within the Trump administration of Chris Liddell, who worked closely in the OAI with Kushner, “a win for Kushner,” who had emerged “as the standard bearer of the establishment faction of the Trump White House, which is locked in a perpetual power struggle with the more ideologically conservative wing.” Enter Rollins, a key part of the establishment faction, who got her start as president and CEO of the Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF), a Koch Foundation-funded think tank based in Austin, Texas. The Daily Beast summarized her admission into the White House: “White House Hires Prison- Activist as a Trump Assistant.”
In 2018, Rollins bragged in a Fox News op-ed about “closing eight prisons in Texas (and 10 juvenile facilities)”. Texas would see skyrocketing homicide rates by the end of 2021—now with fewer detention facilities to contain the new crop of murderers. With the help of Kushner, Rollins brought her soft-on-crime ideas to President Trump’s desk, in what became the First Step Act. The Act released a swarm of dangerous criminals from the federal prison system who went on to kill almost as soon as they got out of jail.
It is difficult to profile everyone who went on to join AFPI after subverting the Trump agenda, but two stand out: Chad Wolf and Larry Kudlow.
Before joining the Trump, Wolf worked as a paid lobbyist for the National Association of Software and Service Companies, a trade body of Indian firms. As the acting secretary of Homeland Security and undersecretary of Homeland Security, Wolf was amenable to NASSCOM’s interests. When coronavirus measures drove unemployment rates through the roof, DHS, under Wolf, announced it would accelerate the processing of H-1B foreign workers. Wolf’s DHS then went a step further by changing a rule to accelerate the influx of these workers. By March 2020, DHS began the process of admitting 85,000 H-1B workers. On April 1, 2020, Wolf used his powers to grant an additional 20,000 new H-2B visas for guest workers. The latter initiative was halted due to scathing coverage by Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
Wolf was also never proactive on securing funding for the border wall but did, instead, lavish sanctuary cities protecting illegal aliens with discretionary funding, effectively subsidizing lawbreaking with money that was in his power to withhold. Today, he serves as AFPI’s executive director and chief strategy officer, doing the “good work” of promoting bad ideas alongside Kudlow.
In an article for American Greatness, Peter Navarro, former assistant to the president for trade and manufacturing policy, described Kudlow as “the most famous offender” among the “free trade ideologues on record opposing Trump’s tariffs” in the White House. He was also a member of the OAI.
Kudlow, according to Navarro, was instrumental in killing an effort to haul Dr. Anthony Fauci before a presidential commission inquiring into the funding of the Wuhan laboratory, suspected of leaking the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Kudlow and his allies were concerned about upsetting China. “Kudlow is just stupid, dumb. You can quote me on that,” Navarro told investigative journalist Sharri Markson.

I have said repeatedly that the influence of Javanka in the first term of President Trump did incalculable damage! She is a liberal Democrat – period! And he is a spoiled rich kid who thinks he is the smartest person in the room but the truth is that he should not have been within a mile of the Oval Office! I believe that he was the one who persuaded President Trump to go ahead with the lockdowns, against his better judgment… Jared was completely rolled by Fauxi and Scarf Lady and his advice, on both the Vax and the virus, probably cost the President millons of votes in November 2020!
Jared blew it with his job as campaignmanager. There was no one in place to handle cheating in PA as it occurred, in places it was known to be likely to occur.
Jared was also the factor behind the “six month head start” for Americans to get jobs during the alleged pandemic before the floodgates were opened to droves of foreign workers.
That idea was fortunately crushed.
Kushner was also involved in presuaded his father-in-law to offer an endorsement to someone who wasn’t even running, if she would move to Tennessee and run for office, even though there was a highly qualified MAGA candidate already running.
Jared was on very good terms with Doctor Fauci.
He could have spent five minutes checking the guy out, but no.
Or maybe he did know what Fauci was?
Zuckerbucks banned in WI…but vote too close for comfort to me. What the heck were those supporters of Zuckerbucks thinking?

Mac Owens from 2001:
The Creased-Pants Crowd of the day marveled at Reagan: “He knows so little and accomplishes so much!”
And now we have in the current “professorial” #ActingPresident Obama, a “Reagan-in-Reverse”:
He knows so much and accomplishes so little. Except for the enemy.
Reagan’s Way:
“When a conservative quotes Jefferson that government that is closest to the people is best,
it is because he knows that Jefferson risked his life, his fortune and his sacred honor to make certain
that what he and his fellow patriots learned from experience was not crushed by an ideology of empire.”
“Elected officials, their appointees, and government workers are expected to perform their public acts with honesty, openness, diligence, and special integrity.”
“Only now and then do we in the West hear a voice from out of that darkness. Then there is silence — the silence of human slavery.”
“Our party must be the party of the individual. It must not sell out the individual to cater to the group.
No greater challenge faces our society today than ensuring that each one of us can maintain his dignity and his identity in an increasingly complex, centralized society.”
“You can’t be for big government, big taxes and big bureaucracy and still be for the little guy.”
“My idea of American policy toward [tyranny] is simple, and some would say simplistic.
It is this: We win and they lose. What do you think of that?”
Reagan knew many things and knew them correctly and well.
Over many years, he had studied, found correct principles and applied them to current events. They found afterwards that his radio commentary where this was evident was written with his own hand, complete with minor corrections.
He did not need to ask ‘what is the correct answer to a problem?’ He already knew.
This armed him well for the Presidency, where dozens of power hungry influences pull on him to use their solution for each new problem. Where there is no time to study each problem and which solution is right.
Where he had to compromise to get part of what is right, the parts he got did good for the country. But the parts he couldn’t get, have lain as time bombs, constantly made worse by his successors.
I actually think his defeat of the Soviets made it possible for Democrats to go full-Soviet here.
But that’s not his fault. They were always going to go bad.
ps; that kinda looks like Ron Jr. in the photo. heh.
Ronaldus Magnus, SORELY missed.

Melania Trump: ‘I followed the law’ as immigrant
2/24/2016
-snipped-
“I followed the law,” Trump said in an interview with Mika Brzezinski aired Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” in discussing the hoops she had to jump through in order to become a citizen of the United States.
“I never thought to stay here without papers. I had a visa, I traveled every few months back to the country to Slovenia to stamp the visa.
I came back, I applied for the green card, I applied for the citizenship later on after many years of green card.
So I went by system, I went by the law. And you should do that, you should not just say let me stay here and whatever happens, happens.”…
https://www.politico.com/blogs/2016-gop-primary-live-updates-and-results/2016/02/melania-trump-msnbc-interview-219720
She was lucky to afford the delays and trips home to Slovenia, etc…I know some Filipino’s that had to do that…
My dearly departed Kiwi dad, signed up for Korea, US Army, in exchange for citizenship.
And lived to tell about it. (j think of the episode in Reagan’s time, with the balloon popping….”Missed Me!”)
The one thing I always remember, coming from my dad, was how grateful he was, to the mentors he had along the way…and how glad he was to be an American citizen. He worked hard all his life…no one ‘gave’ him anything. He was grateful for the opportunities America had to offer.
Found in the bin… 🙁
Why is it always “rhetoric”?
Do people even know what that means?
In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.

Sunny Hostin has denied calling white women who vote Republican ‘roaches’ and insisted a comment which made the comparison was ‘twisted’.
8 November 2022
-snipped-
The View host said she was using a ‘metaphor, really more in a simile’ when she remarked that white women voting Republican was like ‘roaches voting for Raid’.
She attempted to clarify the controversial comment on Tuesday – five days after making the initial remark on last Thursday’s The View.
In a heated exchange with co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, a former Trump staffer, Hostin also tried to deflect criticism by saying ‘my mother is a white woman’.
Co-host Whoopi Goldberg was forced to cut to a commercial break during the confrontation after Hostin and Griffin constantly talked over each.
On last Thursday’s show, Hostin sparked fury when she said: ‘The abortion issue. I read a poll just yesterday that white, Republican, suburban women are now going to vote Republican.
‘It’s almost like roaches voting for Raid. They are voting against their own self-interest. Do they want to live in Gilead? Do they want to live in The Handmaid’s Tale?’
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11404963/The-View-host-Sunny-Hostin-DENIES-calling-white-women-roaches-claims-words-twisted.html
Amazing that she doesn’t understand that there are more issues (and more important issues for the nation) than on-demand abortion. Apparently surburban women of ALL races are realizing this.
With all the contraceptives available…we need abortion on demand, why???
The reverse is true.
RAID is used to prevent future generations–like abortion.
She wouldn’t get away with using a metaphor for blacks that likened them to a filthy pest.
She may be genuinely too stupid the see that.

From your NYPOST piece.
“Carville argued that Democrats must convey that the “consequences” of electing Trump to another White House term will affect young black and Hispanic Americans “for the next 35 years” of their lives”
Yeah, they might actually get jobs and have a productive future ahead of them.
