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

Western aid is being put to good use—on luxury cars.
While ordinary Ukrainians dodge TCC officers and try to plan budget-friendly holidays, the elites are buying some of the most expensive cars in the world.
Thirteen Ukrainians have already become owners of the latest Rolls-Royce Spectre.
This ultra-luxurious, custom-made electric car is crafted by hand and costs over 500,000 euros.
Maquis,
Thank you so much for your forthright dedication. It doesn’t ever go unnoticed. We are always right by you.
#10 {victimization} is running rampant on another thread here.
The defacto trashing of President Trump via his choices is yet another glaring example that TDS knows no bounds.
President Trump chose to serve me and every American.
To trash his picks by insinuating that this ‘Law and order’ administration will now blatantly disregard the 4th Amendment is ludicrous.
I stand with any man who can take a bullet for his Country…
And still not take a salary.
Trust God.
Fear not.
is that you Vivek?
when the rose colored glasses fall off
you might not like what you see!
Trashing horrible staff picks is not the same as trashing Trump.
We knew he had a problem with bad staff choices last time, we supported him anyway, only to see him cheated out of a win that those bad staff choices played a part in.
I was expecting better this time.
Honestly, after the budget he signed, FASAB 56 passing, no pardons for Snowden/Assange, the continued defense of Warp Speed, the Kushner/Netanyahu/Jerusalem embassy provocation, missiles into Syria, Haspel/Bolton/Pompeo appointments, Sessions recusal…Oh, what’s the point? We’ll all see what we want to see. I did take some satisfaction in SD posting about Musk/Thiel right after I had in the comments, to replies of ‘conspiracy theory’ in all caps/bold. Ha.
No pretending. No idols. Happy New Year.
“Never trust a never-Trumper,” unless noted conservative activist Ron Howard had made a fawning biopic about him. Then, everything is sure to be peachy-keen:

He took a bullet. Big effing deal. He lived, with barely a scratch. Quite frankly, I’m sick of of hearing about it.
That is not the sole criteria of being President, FFS.
And, as president, as well as OUR EMPLOYEE, he has to hear what we have to say. That goes for all of his appointments who will be OUR EMPLOYEES. We are not duty bound to accept a damn thing at face value.
The 4th amendment has already been trashed via The Patriot Act and the standing up of a Dept of Homeland Security.
Palantir’s AI has already been used to hunt down people who walked around OUR CAPITOL taking selfies and being free on Jan 6. Most of whom languish in jail without a hearing or trial.
I have had a snoot full of self aggrandizing individuals with their self aggrandizing lectures always followed by a pompous signature.
Bite me.
A bit full of yourself. Just like the people you despise.
Scroll on by then.
Have you ever taken a bullet for your country or what you believe in?
I doubt it. It sounds like you may need to set up an account on Bluecry.
Well said.
Yes actually.
Was it so much that he had a badly nicked ear or was the fact that someone was able, and maybe assisted, to shoot at him in broad daylight and supposedly surrounded by armed guards. The courage here was is never wavering in the face of danger.
Jealous much?
I don’t care which it was.
The fact that he got shot is irrelevant to whether we have an absolute right and duty to question President Trump’s choices we pay to employ. That goes for every president.
Nice deflection though.
Mark Zuckerberg Denies Hawaii ‘Doomsday Bunker’ Existence, Calls It A “Little Shelter
I watched that clip, the few minutes of Cuckerberg no doubt shot with the goal of “humanizing” the cyborg that he is, and he too is apparently afflicted with the “I was like so she was like, and then they were like” – teenaged girl speak… He is still – detestable.
“it’s just like a little office, and some storage space, and like, well people like blew it all out of like proportion, kinda like”.
I can’t pinpoint why I find the guy detestable. That’s the longest 3 or 4 minutes – I’ve ever listened to him speak. I noticed in that puff piece also, the clear blue sky of Lake Tahoe and thought “I suppose billionaire’s can get a “chemtrail” waiver.
You nailed my thoughts exactly about that detestable cyborg. I’ve always thought he looked like a robot.
Yeah, he’s gonna’ fade away. Oh, children…
It doesn’t exist and anyway it isn’t very big.
Trump’s border czar Tom Homan vows ‘family facilities’ built for mass deportations will ‘not be inhumane’
Homan, 63, has pledged to carry out the largest deportation operation in US history and previously stipulated that those who crossed the border illegally will not be spared from the removals, even if they are part of family units that include citizens.
“Here’s the issue,” he added. “You knew you were in the country illegally and chose to have a child. So you put your family in that position.”
Congress will have to allocate sufficient funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to complete the operation, which Homan projected will be much “larger” than President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s effort to kick out 1.1 million Mexican laborers in 1954.
A former ICE official himself, Homan has estimated the agency will need at least 100,000 beds for detentions and at least $86 billion in funding for the mass exodus.
“We’re going to need to construct family facilities,” he told the Washington Post. “How many beds we’re going to need will depend on what the data says.”

Hmmm,..when Congress, a RINO Majority Congress, if memoey serves, refused to give PDJT the $ he needed to build the wall, he took it from Defence Dept. funds, and it was deemed legal by the Courts.
How is it not legal, to use defence dept funds to deport these illegal invaders?
A for humane, Sheriff Joes tent city, in Az. desert was found to NOT be cruel, although perhaps a bit unusual.
Any system of deportation will be more humane than what the cartels offered them, on their way in.
I want them and their home nations to get a bill for all that we spent on them and then get restitution from the traitors within that forced this on us.
I believe that, in time, they will receive the bill or else, PDJT is just going to tariff their products enough to get the money back that way.
Where did you come up with that name?
It has multiple meanings for me. It was before everyone was naming product angry this and angry that. I was/am angry and I own it and I know full well that I am a disposable human who is considered as vile and as valuable as a cockroach so that is how. Ties in with McCain calling us the crazies.
I guess no one ever has to ask for any first or last names? It’s probably easy to find you in the phone book!
Take it out of their foreign aid allowance.
Confiscate their government cards with the reported average of $11,000 on them and “claw back” enough to send them home.
I saw pictures of receipts that showed balances of $14,000 and $15,000 after purchases.
Excellent point! There were no howls from the IC run mockingbird msm on the treatment of the illegal aliens by the Mexican cartels or their coyotes getting here! Our corrupt, leftist propagandist press was/is only concerned how the illegal aliens once illegally in the country are treated and will howl when the deportations begin! Look for it! The false stories of families being separated and forced into horrible detention centers! They’re probably already written! How I loathe our government run “free press”!
I wonder what will happen to the ones who haven’t paid their fees to the cartel when they came in. Don’t care, just curious.
They have more job stability than citizens because many must pay the cartel out of every check. I’m sure retribution for non-payment has been occurring with regularity on our soil.
Maybe they’ll just lean into side gigs such as drug dealing and prostitution with the occasional home invasion.
Riddle me this Batman – temp facilities needed for pass thru/ short -term re-useable residency. OK – tents and trailer- dispose after use. . Or, build nice new brick and mortar units, long term re-useable (as FEMA detention camps. You’re right. Tom Homan is probably a great guy – but I no longer trust anything associated with Gov’t operations – wonder why? )
End remittances … at least to countries who refuse returns of their illegal invaders.
Vivek has a point, but I do not see it as “either-or”.
Yes, the American culture raises up mediocrity in many respects, BUT the business world is where the rubber meets the road and if you want to be successful in the business world you have to strive for excellence.
I suspect Vivek supports the H1-B Visa program because it is cheaper for Business (lower wages than American workers) AND these workers are essentially indentured servants; if they are not obedient and compliant they can be “sent home”. H1-B workers are also pretty much “locked in” to their sponsoring employer; they cannot freely go find another American job, like American citizens.
Yep, seems like Vivek favors a “culture” that conditions people to be obedient and compliant. As it turns out, he is not in charge of making visa policy decisions in the Trump Administration.
Yes, and he has gotten far out of his lane with his idiotic tweet. Trump is appointing him to try to shrink the government and make it more efficient, not to opine on immigration policy, an area where he will, thankfully, have no influence. This was a stupid, tone-deaf, and completely unnecessary tweet, but it did out him as the tech baron in search of cheap foreign labor that he always was – dressed up in MAGA clothing. His credibility is now completely shot as far as MAGA is concerned, and Elon is right behind him. I knew we would have trouble with these people at some point, but I didn’t expect it so soon.
There are plenty of other countries in the world.
I am not a fan.
IMO he is, at a minimum, an opportunist. I won’t debate it– it is my perception.
These are the greedy snakes who get fat off the corpses of others.
Ok I’m going to take a different road here. I won’t be writing either of these guys off yet. They are learning too and I will give them a mulligan on this issue based on where they came from business wise, their financial status and the cultures they grew up in. They have a completely different perspective than you or I or any MAGA supporter. We rightly defend our culture and our country. They think they are too but look at it with different eyes.
Right now they are getting a big dose of American MAGA pride and are going to learn a good lesson. This will either get them in a different and more MAGA place, get them to rethink what they just offered as opinion on what is wrong and on importing workers to replace Americans or it won’t. They are not totally wrong in their thoughts on American education and we all need to admit that we messed up big time on that issue. I think PTrump will give them a good talking to about the whole deal and they either get onboard fully or they are gone.
Let’s just see what comes from this. I think they have a lot to offer America for getting the govt. back in order but if they overstep their job duties, they will get bounced. I will be ok letting this play out a bit without condemning them just yet.
I have written them off. I never accepted that we need billionaires in government… very dangerous. Who cares about success if you need to destroy your culture to do it. I prefer losing.
Go back to India, go back to South Africa. They need the “help” more than we do.
I am uncomfortable with those two and also uncomfortable with the number of Indians coming to the forefront. With Bush and Obama it was the muzzies. Now it is the Indians.
Sorry but I can understand why people wouldn’t want to hire American students. The Universities and their diversity rules are not putting forward sane, sensible graduates. It is expensive to maintain safe spaces.
Where are the foreign students getting their educations?
Norkulus
@Norkulus
I watched our company fire the absolute best operators who had worked at one of our manufacturing sites for years. This place was in a small town, and the people were mid career, so it’s devastating for them.
About 6 months later, they hired back, all immigrants.
https://x.com/Norkulus/status/1872634165130338479
Throw in “minimal effort Mondays”, “quiet quitting” and “coffee badging” or demands to “work from home” once employed.
Call them what they are, modern day slave owners.
Vivek is sounding rather like a Nazi. Maybe musk too. No matter what, they are not like us, treepers, and never will be.
“Vivek is sounding rather like a Nazi. Maybe musk too. No matter what, they are not like us, treepers, and never will be.”
Nazi??? With all due respect, you do not speak for all treepers. Some of us see it differently.
How so? How is hiring foreign workers in place of – or to replace – American workers even remotely compatible with MAGA? In 2015 Disney fired its American workers but ordered them to train their foreign replacements or forgo their severance packages, not only destroying those American’s careers, but humiliating them in the process. How is that MAGA?
It’s the opposite of MAGA, and it’s the same globalist population replacement that we see everywhere now in the Western world. Vivek just came out of the closet and endorsed that policy, as did Elon. Abelard is right, they are not like us, and they are not MAGA. I wouldn’t use term “nazi,” but globalist fits, and given the one-world tyranny that globalists pursue, the label is fitting and is actually even worse than Naziism.
Yep! It appears that people are falling for this new attempt to divide MAGA.
MAGA became divided when foreign usurpers were allowed into the campaign. Thanks, Don Jr. Jason Miller is somewhere clapping with glee.
And counting his money..
A great many of us who were told, on these very pages in some instances, to sit down, shut up, and obey the geniuses at work, were pointing out that Elon has NEVER been America First. That he was only positioning himself for financial gain at OUR expense.
Corporate Mooching off taxpayers is all Elon Musk knows about business. He has always favored foreign labor over Americans.
Lying and defrauding people however is his greatest talent.
Just like a republican, Elon Musk used our virtue against us.
Who doesn’t want frivolous spending to be dismantled?
See how that works..
DOGE is only there to implement Palantir’s exclusive AI tentacles throughout every single department of US government.
Yep.
Let’s wait til midsummer. We’ll know a lot more by then.
No, not Nazi, but Socialist.
Are you familiar with the meaning of the acronym?
No they are not sounding like a Nazi. That’s a term thrown about everywhere, like the word racism, by the LEFT to try and influence opinions of people the left wants to destroy in the public’s mind. Surprised a treeper would use that term here.
Yes, any ‘point’ he has, is drowned out by the obvious advantages you list so succinctly.
And the culturehe praises, is a caste system that is virtual slavery, and as it is practiced thruout India, it prepared those who come here from India on H1 b visas, to BE virtual slaves.
How is it, that India uniquely has this culture with such a work ethic?
Well, India IS unique, as it is the only culture with this endemic, entrenched caste system, in which those in the upper castes basically buy children to work as “houseboys” etc.
THATS what is unique about India, and its the only reasin they want the H1B program continued and expanded, and if PDJT falls for this, he is enabling 21st century enslavement.
That is not ALL they do with children: houseboys. If you get my drift. unfortunately…
Sounds like President Trump has already accepted the H1B visas.
The National Pulse has an article that blows up the need for H1B visas. The author William Upton explains the difference between the O- 1 visa program (think Einstein level applicants) vs H1 B visa which are for more mainstream talent types.
He explains how all the tech bros are massively laying of native talent so they can lock in foreign workers at lower pay and less job mobility.
I believe its probably true that the overall work ethic of marginal workers need to be better, but this is not limited to native workers.
We have UN’s open borders human trafficking schemes carried out by gubmint NGO’s and churches. We import slave laborers and have lost track of hundreds of thousands of defenseless children.
And to think Juneteenth was recently added to the calendar celebrating the “end of slavery” in our country. What a joke!
This!
Ask Vivek about the federal tax benefits and freebies he gets from the federal government by hiring H-1B employees.
“hiring” is equal to “importing”?
Don’t forget the spouses are allowed to work also so every Visa costs 2 jobs from citizens.
Not always. Some were already here but have status as dual citizens and they do well because employers get a tax break for hiring them.
Why aren’t we hearing calls to deliver adequate educations to our own citizens? Shouldn’t we focus on MAGA?
American education is such a morass and so many billions have been frittered away in “education reform” that any attempt at reform is useless. What is needed is a wholesale rebuilding from the ground up. We need competition in the education sphere. This requires annihilation of the teachers unions. Competition is the only way. Let the best education emerge from the marketplace. We must stop the socialization of education, even at the county level.
Bingo!
Be a part of the solution, not the problem.
They don’t even teach Handwriting Cursive in schools anymore. I never see a school kid with a book. Only a phone.which they are all glued to.
I teach plenty of students who read, analyze, and write their own essays.
How do I know? They can’t touch a computer until they have a handwritten, edited first draft to submit with their final draft.
No edited first- draft equals no credit.
* All assignments are completed in class.
Well done. Even so, there are many high school graduates who cannot read.
True of GA which hasn’t changed its national ranking (which is almost last) in 35+ years and given that trend, never will.
Not surprising given Georgia’s demographics. Any supposed reform of the education system that pretends inner city students are potential physicists, who just need vouchers to go to private schools, will make things even worse than they are now. And all I hear from the GOP side are proposals like that one. Competition isn’t remotely the problem in the eduation system.
Or speak. I cringe every single time I hear “Can I ‘axe’ you a question.” “Axe” a question. I hear this from adults!
In my freshman year in college, the English instructor asked everyone to read a paragraph from our text.
Several students had trouble, and one in particular quite a bit. She was seeing who could read.
This was 1974.
Yes, I did the same to keep from grading papers parents had written. 😜
I’m a retired teacher and I offered to homeschool my two young grandchildren. The parents wanted them to try traditional school. They are in Kinder and First grade in El Paso, Texas. They have homework, Monday through Thursday, and family projects. Every child in the classroom is expected to be a year ahead of their grade level and teachers tutor without extra pay at the end of the school day to get them there. I am very impressed. The children enjoy school.
That’s why I moved from California to Texas.
Yes they do. Maybe not everywhere but it still is being taught. My family has several children in elementary school and they are learning cursive.
I was mailing an item at UPS. My recipient’s address was in my cursive handwriting, which is legible. The UPS worker asked me what it said. I read it out letter-by-letter. I had to wonder if she could read cursive handwriting or not.
Precisely! Florida is getting a head start by banning social media to anyone under 14. The state of Florida could become a Harvard of education, and not just a place where people go to die!
Get rid of the Communist educators, remove Internet distraction, and Florida could become years ahead of other states!
Bingo. This is where the focus should be. Right away and quickly get results.
Bingo. Our educational system is the crux of the problem. People can squawk all they want about E & V. They are a symptom of the problem. They aren’t the problem. Our educational system is a problem going back at least 3-4 decades.
I’m a teacher. I agree largely with above, with a minor but important caveat. Teachers need some protection from admin (and local school districts, which have tax power and immunity from liability that you would not believe), just as workers need some protection from owners (self-evident from ongoing conversation here). Flame away that I’m a commie, but before you do, understand that I have great reservations about public sector unions (read FDR on the topic) in general and compulsory membership in particular.
The policies we really hate don’t come bottom-up from local teachers, who are frequently members of their community, often sharing in its cultural values. They come top-down, from the Dept of Ed and state Boards of Education. My two cents.
Almost all of the problems students have originate outside of the classroom. Administrators are a huge part of the problem. Yes, teachers need protections, and they can get that in a privatized system.
“Almost all of the problems students have originate outside of the classroom.” Agreed
“Administrators are a huge part of the problem.” Agreed
“Yes, teachers need protections, and they can get that in a privatized system.” Sincere question, with all respect: What would that look like? What form would it take?
I am in favor of school choice, understand the rationale for vouchers, etc. Believe me, it has made me the target of acrimony over the years. I am currently working for a private school in a right-to-work state, after having a paycheck withheld by a public school district (did you know that you can’t sue them in small claims court, nor file a wages/hours complaint against them with the state labor commission nor federal dept of labor, statutorily?) that has been reprimanded by the state auditor for, “a culture of noncompliance and a disregard for proper controls over the use of public funds,” so I’m no defender of the status quo. Neither am I comfortable with wearing all the risk in this situation.
In a very real sense, and this applies far beyond education, I look at the public/private, government/corporation divide as a distinction without a difference these days.
Curious to hear the details of your proposal to protect teachers in a privatized system absent government involvement.
So, the problem is the laws currently in existence that protect everyone but the teacher. The solution is to restore laws to protect the little guy and not corporate entities, including governments. Our republic should be dedicated to protecting individuals. This is a big problem.
Hmm… My parents (born in 1912 and 1915) had no college, mom stayed home, and dad worked as a very successful sales manager in a very successful steel industry related job. (steel industry, remember when America had one?) They didn’t have to limit tv much because we didn’t have the 24/7 technology world we have now, so we played outside with our friends a lot.
I was the first girl in the family to get a college degree – teacher. Not an engineer, but the schedule sure works for a working mom. I encouraged my daughters and son to get a college degree. Engineering degrees usually lead to a good job, business degrees not so much. Interior decorating and turf management, why would you need college for that? Lots of things can be learned without college, but you need the jobs to be there.
I live in the rust belt. They told us we have to be a service economy, not a manufacturing one. And everyone MUST be an engineer.
I like the “culture” I grew up in.
Apparently “free will” is anathema to those who promote a global neo-feudalism. Thanks for outlining your vision for America. We will not be pigeonholed.
I think our U.S. economy has had too few jobs for too many people in the long run. Long bouts of inflation that strip away all gains in wages over the years. Employers trying to be on the cheap for emp!oyee benefits. Almost like it was planned. No new building of moderate homes to resupply homes (people will be living in 100 year old mobile homes soon). I have lived through several long periods in my life where there were no jobs to be had at any level. Automation will only make it worse and somebody better cut us a deal where we the people make some kind of stipend off all that gold under our feet. It belongs to us.
Hey Vivek, America, the country, wins when Americans, its citizens win.
You smart people are going to have to have these H1B guests train Americans QUICKLY. As a parting gift, these H1B guests can be given a decent sum of money to set them up in their home country.
The tech people have figured out that the 15% corporate tax that PDJT is advocating only applies to businesses that operate in America and HIRE AMERICANS. Uh oh.
So, while they pivot towards hiring Americans they have to pay the higher corporate tax rate. Suck to be them. That gives them financial incentive to hurry up and train Americans NOW.
Adding onto my initial thoughts, these tech guys are advocating for an exception to the Hire Americans rule.
That is how we got here in the first place. Companies lobbied politicians to flood the country with H1B foreigners with each one giving a sob story about Americans aren’t qualified enough (BS) to do the job.
They do not want to bear the entire cost of hiring Americans. It is cheaper for the companies to let them be on food stamps, put 20 of them into a small apartment, let them be on Medicaid, and be indentured slaves.
Already, we have a group of employers advocating for special carve outs for their industries.
The answer should be NO. Otherwise, corrupt Congress and the bureaucrats will accept bribes for “Exceptions to the Rule”.
In the end, the American taxpayers pay for having foreigners steal their jobs from them. This must end.
Businesses can choose to stay in the USA and hire Americans or pay the higher corporate tax rate, or move their businesses out of the USA. They do not want any of these 3 options. They want to keep the cheap foreign labor AND have the low corporate tax rates while having their businesses in the USA.
I cannot understand why anyone thinks people from India have a good work ethic. I have worked on projects with people from India and they are very slow producers if they produce anything at all.
They do come to work on time in the morning and when I was on this project the fellow from India would go eat breakfast first thing. They believe that their office is their living room and home and they can live their life there which means eating breakfast on company time.
I can remember one time he came in on a Monday and told the boss, who was Japanese and believe me they have a work ethic, that he had been working all weekend in the office. And the boss said well did you get anything done? And he said this sarcastically.
I am sorry but this is some kind of fantasy that people from India are hard workers. It must be as someone below said they work for less money and since they live in the office they don’t have to make as much they can eat their meals and probably even sleep there.
I knew a businessman who liked to hire retired teachers because they had a great work ethic and worked their a$$e$ off.
“Yes, the American culture raises up mediocrity in many respects, BUT the business world is where the rubber meets the road and if you want to be successful in the business world you have to strive for excellence.”
An excellent point, but I’d suggest that rewarding or even recognizing mediocrity is a “top down” mechanism, that doesn’t “raise up” so much – as it lowers the threshold for noteworthy achievement rendering sub par “everything”as the median.
On balance, I suppose that might all be described as “raised up” as the result is the same. Lowering the bar to entry to entry and participation.
It’s true in “art”, “fashion”, “music” “food”, you name it. Mediocrities that quickly became the “greatest hits”.
Remember the fashion show in the film “Zoolander” when the “Derelicte” fashion line was introduced? The runway models wore Hefty trash bags. Art imitating life?
Mediocrity in music ran the gamut. From K.I.S.S. to Hootie and the Blowfish. ( Geez, did they suck? Or what? ) Rap? It’s “Hammer Time” and time is running out. Kaitlyn Jenner is an ugly dude in a tennis skirt posing ever so coquettishly on the cover of Vogue.
Most examples – from last century. Surely “it” hasn’t gotten “better”.
Now – where’s my participation trophy!?
I suspect that Vivek supports the H1-B Visa program because it will bring in more people that will vote for him.
The only thing I will recognize in his anti American tweet is “Culture”
We are in a culture war, and that alone is what destroys empires!
Personally I do not admire or advocate for the smug elitist prick CULTURE of Tech entrepreneurs. Had enough of the entitled dishonest culture of Indian doctors as a nurse for nearly 30 years as well. There has been a war on white males for decades.
There’s truth in what you say. This issue needs much more hashing out than it’s getting since there are multiple reasons for both sides stances at play here. I was very annoyed a few years ago when a Disney employee spoke about having to train a foreign person to take over the Disney employee’s job that the American was doing well and was very qualified for. It came down to wages and as you say FH, the foreign employee was pretty much owned by Disney for the duration of his H1B visa. Then this scenario was reported in other companies as well and was continuing to grow.
H1B visas were being expanded at an alarming rate all with govt. approval it seems. American workers who are qualified need to be hired before importing foreign workers to take the jobs. Some sort of qualifying testing for all incoming applicants foreign and American or some other qualifier perhaps, needs to be done. Equal pay on an American scale could be one way to level the playing field. Then I catch myself thinking that too much govt. interference and controls in the running of businesses is not good either.
We do have labor laws etc. so why not expand them more and make sure they apply to foreign workers too? Sigh. It is a complex situation with lots of loose ends and of course the end goal of making more money for the corporations so they go for and abuse the regulations to get the biggest end game boost in using the H1B program. Hopefully, something gets done quickly.
Halt the H1B visas for awhile and leveling the playing field as far as wages goes might help..
American culture is not the culprit, our edikayshun system is the culprit. When I was growing up, just about every single teacher viewed education as a calling, like police, military, religion, etc. I didn’t know what to call it back then but I could tell that most of my teachers were dedicated. As time went on, and thinking back on it all, that changed. Today, for most everyone in the education system, it is just a job with a paycheck, lots of holidays, and no hard work. Or, it is a chance to indoctrinate impressionable kids with all sorts of evil concepts.
Our edikayshun system must be changed, and quickly.
I was skeptical about Vivek and Elon working with Trump, but now my mind is made up. If these 2 don’t want to train Americans for Hi-tec jobs, then Trump’s America First policies are a failure. I want these 2 out of the Trump administration. There’s plenty of other people that can cut costs in Government.
Why should America take the cream of the crop of IT engineers and other engineering professionals from India and leave them with a bunch of useless dullards? Just wondering?
If we are going to get tough let’s address Indian business ethics in the US. Careful, your caste is showing.
State Department’s ‘Global Engagement Center’ accused of censoring Americans shuts its doors
‘The Department of State has consulted with Congress regarding next steps,’ a spokesperson said
The State Department’s foreign disinformation center, accused by conservatives of censoring U.S. citizens, shut its doors due to lack of funding this week.
Elon Musk had deemed the Global Engagement Center (GEC), established in 2016, the “worst offender in U.S. government censorship & media manipulation,” and its funding was stripped as part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the Pentagon’s yearly policy bill.
“The Global Engagement Center will terminate by operation of law [by the end of the day] on December 23, 2024,” a State Department spokesperson said in a statement. “The Department of State has consulted with Congress regarding next steps.”
Lawmakers had originally included funding for the GEC in its continuing resolution (CR), or bill to fund the government beyond a Friday deadline. But conservatives balked at that iteration of the funding bill, and it was rewritten without money for the GEC and other funding riders.
The agency had a budget of around $61 million and 120 people on staff.
Taibbi wrote last year when exposing the Twitter Files that the GEC “flagged accounts as ‘Russian personas and proxies’ based on criteria like, ‘Describing the Coronavirus as an engineered bioweapon,’ blaming ‘research conducted at the Wuhan institute,’ and ‘attributing the appearance of the virus to the CIA.’”

How many of the employees were fired? Or did they just scurry deeper into the bureaucracy?
“Lawmakers had originally included funding for the GEC in its continuing resolution (CR), or bill to fund the government beyond a Friday deadline. But conservatives balked at that iteration of the funding bill, and it was rewritten without money for the GEC and other funding riders.”
Yeah….this POS office was one of many obnoxious surrender items in that monstrosity Johnson allowed to be proposed at the last minute.
Yeah….tell me again why Johnson is so good?
The formal organization is shuttered, only to move behind a curtain. These idiots haven’t gone away, which is why they have to simply be fired.
They plotted to have Trump lose his life in Rikers. They must all go to prison.
Everyone involved in the lawfare must be prosecuted.

Congress Must Expose the Senility Coup
And invalidate any actions taken during Biden’s mental incapacity.
At some point in the last four years, the president ceased to be. We do not yet know the date at which the man holding the office became incompetent to carry out his duties. What we do know is that his entire administration engaged in a concerted conspiracy to cover up his incapacity.
This conspiracy was not just one of the many lies told for political purposes: it was a coup.
As America’s political class grows sicker, we have witnessed the spectacle of members of Congress who are institutionalized or so decrepit that they no longer know where they are, ‘sponsoring legislation’ and ‘casting votes’. These are not just deceptions: they are crimes.
Staffers who not only cover up the mental decline of an elected official, but who act in his or her name, are seizing power from the people and acting on their own behalf. This is a coup.
While staffers acting in place of mentally incapacitated members of the House or Senate is serious, the senility coup that took place during the Biden administration is far worse.
https://www.frontpagemag.com/congress-must-expose-the-senility-coup/
There is no “do-over” provision in the Constitution, and I am not at all sure there should be.
And frankly, if they were “covering it up” they weren’t doing a very good job, as we all knew it.
Not sure there is currently any law on the books, that covers there actions, and defined them as a crime.
Plenty of laws in place for prosecuting fraud.
Look what Soros babe Leticia James did to PDJT.
The coup took place on J6. Retitiger laid out the facts. Four years of usurpation.
I’ve repeated these facts to someone in government who agreed/confirmed that they already knew about it before our discussion. I think it’s widely accepted as true.
TRUTH. Thank you Charles

He was unfit the day he took the oath of office.
He was unfit at birth.
This man was an idiot from day one.
Those of us who have lived with and took care of family members who suffered from dementia and alzheimers recognized the signs IMMEDIATELY. There was never any doubt.
True. So true.
“Staffers” have names. Out them so the American people can know who is doing the dirty deeds of this lawless administration.
When, day one.
Nice thoughts and it should be just as said. It never will be though. What’s done is done and we move forward to try and correct the horror show that was the Biden administration.
We here all knew Joe was incompetent when he was chosen as the 2020 candidate by the people in charge of the Dems and ran hiding in his basement, using covid as the excuse for few public appearances. They knew too but wanted a very compliant tool to use so they could run the country as they wished. It worked for a while now didn’t it? Biden never won the election as we all know, but the cabal behind him made sure they won by theft so they could ruin America for the globalists. Biden was incompetent from day one. He just got so bad they couldn’t fool the public anymore so they sacrificed him by making him debate Trump in front of the whole world and then installed their next paid for tool Kamala.
Nothing can be taken back though as much as we wish it could be, as much as it should be. In reality and an honest world, all of Obama’s two terms should be taken back also because he was not Constitutionally eligible to run, but he did with the manipulations of the left and the complacency and cowardice of the SC. He was a useful and much more coherent tool of TPTB also.
Americans Are Making More Money Than Ever Before
Incomes for American households have grown quite a bit in the last six decades.
In 1967, nearly one-third of households made less than $35,000 a year (adjusted to 2023 dollars), and in 2023, that’s fallen to one-fifth.
Here’s the share of households per income bracket for every year since 1967. Categories have been combined from the original source and all figures are rounded. As a result percentages may not sum exactly to 100.
https://www.zerohedge.com/personal-finance/visualizing-how-us-household-incomes-have-changed-over-past-50-years
I wonder how this would compare to a graph of the hours of labor needed at median wages to buy major appliances, a car, or even a modest home for a small family over that same time period. That being said, inflation is a stealth tax.
Well, me n mine are in that bottom category, own two vehicles, and by own I mean own outrite, as we don’t use credit.
Own outrite several travel trailers, last year bought a new freezer which we keep packed full,..and after our bills are paid, we have a decent amount of $ left over each month.
Of coarse, no credit, only Insurance we have is the minimum required liability on our two vehicles, and Medicare Hospitalisation only, which costs us nothing.
And yes, we HAVE noticed the price of groceries going up,…but it hasn’t caused us to change our purchasing, at all.
Convenience or efficiency, safety and security, these are just ILLUSIONS, and we pay a TREMENDOUS markup for these illusions, as much as 1000%, but because its not right in front of us, and because we fear it would mean sacrifice, we refuse to see it.
Yep. Wonder what the household debt load was in 1967 compared to 2023? 🤔 There’s a big difference in being ‘just’ poor and debt poor.
Medicare costs me when they take it out of my check every month and my yearly deductible when I see the doctor once a year. (Although I haven’t gotten a bill yet this year.)
I think “Dutchman” is saying he only has Medicare Part A?
Ten cents on the dollar.
“My house is worth four times what I paid for it!”
“No. Your dollar is worth a quarter.”
And you can pay tax on your “capital gain”! Good night nurse!!
Planned, it seems.
Purchasing power is the metric that should be used.
A brand new 1972 custom Chevrolet pickup, tax, title and license was $2600 dollars.
85% of Americans used to have a vegetable garden.
Stats claim the average American spends $5,300 per year on food.
Cost to grow your own with seeds, fertilizer etc is less than $200 per year
Turning a gallon of milk into yogurt, or cheese is easy
People never used to seek convenience, but now its demanded, and you’re paying for it. People used to start on the bottom rung and live in simple homes with hand me downs, but now they want the penthouse, or they feel hard done by.
How is it possible to live on Social Security of $1200 a month? Too much money for food stamps.
I live on less than that although I don’t have to, with my pension and interest income, I make 5 times that.
I don’t piss away my money on iPhones and 200 cable channels and all the crap that advertising tells me to buy.
I’ve got a $8.00 /month flip phone and prepaid internet, no tv (for 30 years!) and I get fed little propaganda.
Most peoples money problems aren’t income problems, they’re spending problems.
Amen!
In 1967, my mother could only make $3,000 a year because my dad was on disability because of developing Parkinson’s disease when he worked at Dupont as a Steam Engineer, traveling 30 miles each way to work on rotating schedule, days, swings, and midnight shifts. She had to quit working in the school cafeteria in March because she reached her income limit for the year. Two minor children in the home. The U.S. government kept us in poverty. No food stamps. We had a 1954 brick Cape Cod house under mortgage and a ’64 Ford Galaxie. My sister was in college and worked 30 hours a week in retail in addition to college. I was in Junior High. I got my work permit when I was 14 and had to use my dad’s social security number for withholding. We paid federal, state tax and city tax in Ohio.
In 1968, my parents bought a 1957 brick cape cod and moved from an apartment. They had a ‘60 Mercury Comet and bought a second car-a ‘63 Galaxie.
you totally missed the point of the article………………..ugh
Manmade Global Warming Modeling proves to be Wrong Again
“This year’s minimum Arctic sea ice extent was 26% larger than 2012. @BBCNews said the Arctic would be ice-free by 2013.”
Oh, my what will the polar bears do, with all of that extra territory to roam over?
I am surprised that they are screaming about how the expanding ice is now covering up the territory of another animal thus causing ecological damage.
Oh darn!
Just when China was getting ready to ship freight across the top in all of the open water.
I have been posting articles like this on my Twitter page. Claim that the scam has been going on for over 100 years.
The scam is the claim of being man made. The other scam is the guessing of dates.
A change is coming, and soon, but its not man made.
JMO.
The “smartest” newbie MAGAs around weren’t watching where they stepped and landed on a landmine and found themselves promoting foreigners over Americans.
The challenge to hiring foreigners over Americans couldn’t be allowed to stand without being beat down. That has been done today, by many contributors on the Conservative Treehouse.
It does bring up another significant discussion put forth by the “smartest” newbie MAGAs and that is whether AI is as large an improvement over the current data processing world that it requires a much larger share of the citizen’s taxes and the nation’s resources. The newbie MAGA’s large forecasted increase in IT engineers is predicated on the USA going full blast into the globalist’s view of AI. We shouldn’t let that assumption stand without our due diligence being completed.
The paraphrased statement by the “smartest” newbie MAGAs that AI is the “cat’s meow” for the USA has not been challenged like it should be.
Some say “AI”, aka “artificial intelligence”
Some others say “AI”, “just another name for programs written by human programmers” wrapped up in the latest chic marketing scheme to fool the American citizens to give up more of their freedoms, property and resources to a small group of globalist / communist who are intent on controlling the world’s population.
That is bad enough, but add to that, that the AI’s current physical platform design is a HUGE hog of physical space, electrical and water resources and you have a really bad idea for the allocation of the citizen’s tax $$. The hardware design was bad for mass processing 30 years ago, it is terrible now. There are better platforms.
Before “AI” grows out of bounds, let’s have transparency on the true dangers of the “newest programming” craze being pushed onto America. Transparency that will allow checks & balances to be built in, to protect the unsuspecting, trusting consumers of “AI” as well as making sure it supports our Constitutional Republic’s individual rights and freedoms. We don’t want another repeat of the weaponization of the federal government against its own citizens.
AI is being pushed beyond its apparent need by a group that is to benefit by the associated government spending ….. that sets off warning bells.
Let the private sector nerds play with the AI concept as they see fit. Just don’t try to push it onto the American taxpayer.
President Trump needs to be made aware of the concerns about the AI push by the newbie MAGAs.
President Trump is aware, in my opinion, and he’s trying to work with both sides.
“Trump appointed Indian-origin Sriram Krishnan as Senior Policy Advisor for Artificial Intelligence at the White House Office.”
FTA: In an old tweet, Krishnan wrote, “Anything to remove country caps for green cards/unlock skilled immigration would be huge”.
Endorsed by influential figures like David Sacks and Elon Musk, Krishnan’s base stands tall as they all argue for removing country-specific caps to attract and retain global talent.”
President Trump designated Katie Miller (Stephen Miller’s wife) to work with DOGE:

Nothing says life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness better than importing communists & caste Indians in numbers sufficient to take over a dumbed down population.

Best first sentence of the morning award goes to…
You! 🙂
He should be working with one side, the American side, which he pledged to do back in 2016.
I don’t doubt he has our best interest in mind.
It’s your opinion that “the other side” is not American. He seems to think it it is
Then he is wrong.
In my uninformed opinion, AI will be to business what corn is to ethanol.
It will eat up so much resources it will not be tenable in the long run.
Corn uses up all of the water and AI uses up all of the electricity.
The problem is, when do people stop? Will they keep going until they are completely out of water and electricity?
“Corn uses up all of the water and AI uses up all of the electricity. The problem is, when do people stop? Will they keep going until they are completely out of water and electricity?”
People will have little, then eventually no “say”, in the decision making process. “AI” will make the determination, that its need for electricity will supercede, and take precedence over any humans needs.
You know – for the greater good.
Dave Bowman – human astronaut: – “Open the pod bay doors, please HAL”
HAL 9000 – IBM Supercomputer and mission specialist – “I’m sorry, Dave. I can’t do that”
Cactus,
“Let the private sector nerds play with the AI concept as they see fit. Just don’t try to push it onto the American taxpayer. ”
Total agreement here. AI is not the solution to all problems now. Perhaps it will evolve to that but it shouldn’t require taxpayer dollars to do it.
If she still has it up for free, Sasha Stone did a fantastic job, clips I hadn’t seen before of Trump in her documentary video;

Instead of spending time prosecuting big, non-convictable fish like Hillary, Joe, Chris Wray … go after the smaller guys, the second-tier minions that enabled them. Spend a few years making their lives miserable with prosecutions in federal courts other than the District of Communism. Minions will think twice next time/
Fried, baked, grilled, sushi. Bluegill, Perch, Salmon or sardines. Take away their water and they can’t breath or swim.
Like they did to J6ers?
Maybe they will even roll.
Oh, they’d definitely roll – in a heartbeat!
I think the DoJ should go after the underlings, and flip them ( as is customary ) and then try, convict and sentence, the heretofore untouchables, some of whom you cite.
It might well already be underway. I honestly don’t think President Trump in his first term spent all that money to renovate GITMO on a lark. $500 Million – give or take.

Release Amercian ingenuity!
Especially from the bondage slave hold of the educated “elite” controlling our children in our schools. Take public schools back funded by taxpayer money! Time to put shop, welding, typing, driving, home economics, check book balancing, and automotive mechanics back into schools. It’s not too late to turn this around!
Right on.
Hahahaha.
The reason top tech companies hire foreign-born workers is because they are attached like ticks to the Federal Government, which has required them, implicitly or explicitly, to pursue DEI in the workplace in order to be funded.
Renew it, too!
Versus “Mind your guards!”
^ Good idea!
The Praetorian Guards killed 10 or 12 (?) Roman Emperors. Reminding me of the potential of the current U.S. Secret Service.
Sometimes the “rags” have journalists quite adept at digging up details. In today’s day and age, rags like TMZ and US Magazine may just be the links needed to fill in details (since we have no reliable journalists in main stream).
Notable points to shed light:
1) Don Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle (former Mrs. Gavin Newsome) broke up “before” the election but didn’t announce it due to not wanting to deflect from the campaign.
2) Greece ambassadorship was a consolation prize to the former Mrs. Newsome. Ambassadorships are often “thank you cards” to the elite in standing within campaigns.
3) The PARTY PICKS THE VEEP – this I heard from an insider within rotten Central Indiana politics. Don Jr may be crowing his power of persuasion in the placement of such notables, JD Vance and Vivek Ramaswam(p)y and RFK Jr… but let me be very clear…. the RepubliCON machine was churning support for RFK Jr long before as they were trying to align the stars in favor of deep state star-is-born, Ron (and Casey) DeSantis. The Party identifies the emotionally and egotistically pliable among the herd of “influencers” and they move in with their fraternity and sorority brothers and sisters to feed the ego of the emotionally and power-hungry “pliable”. Don Jr is the weak link here. Charlie Kirk and his flashing lights and being the “white Obama” that he is… jumps in and influences the hell out of the emotionally and power-hungry gullible. Don Jr doesn’t run the Trump Organization – Eric Trump does. Eric’s wife was co-chair of the RNC – which she now has resigned. Why did she resign? Have the “problems” of the RNC party solved themselves… suddenly? Or is it that the means to reach an end… have been reached? The typical Modus Operandi for either of the sick and twisted, mind sucking, corrupt as hell political parties… is to use the sexually vulnerable and easily mind manipulated. They don’t want anyone thinking for themselves. They will think FOR YOU and they will give you all you need to keep you satisfied and pacified.
4) The political party of the RNC – is NOT MAGA, NOT TRUMP SUPPORTERS, AND THEY ARE NOT AMERICA FIRST. The American people are to be RULED and to be kept SUPRESSED and DUMBED DOWN. Just look at our schools and our children’s teaching of history. Shoot, they’d just as soon eliminate history all together. They are globalists, New World Order, they want to be the leaders of the Globalists and have the power and influence by commanding the greatest military and intelligence apparatus on the earth to rise and fall leaders in other countries at their whims.
5) Bettina Anderson, Don Jr’s next “I can’t be alone” stand in… probably supplied by the RNC… claims the following:
to be your run of the mill “stay at home mom” – she is not a wife, nor does she have any kids – she’s 37 years old.she’s a “social influencer” with highlights on CLIMATE ACTIVISMwhere’s her money come from? Young philanthropist. What’s her “claim to fame” that people should pay her? She’s the daughter of the “late” Harry Loy Anderson, Jr. who became the president of Worth Avenue National Bank when he was 26 YEARS OLD, and in doing so becaem the youngest bank president in U.S. History. according to SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST who is repeatedly referenced in this rag article.Bettina’s mom is a philanthropist, too. Inger Anderson. “Inger” and “Loy” sound a little ethnic don’t they? Where are they from? Where did their wealth generate. Come on, Treeper friends, play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon with me.Bettina dated William “Beau” Wrigley Jr who is heir to the Wrigley Gum fortune in 2017.6) The Trump family is popular for their showmanship and Hollywood influencing. Yes, they are real estate moguls… but I am talking about “influencing” in today’s day and psychologically impressionable age. Don Jr. repeatedly stated that Greece is getting an “absolute star” in Kimberly Guilfoyle. A “star”. Bettina is a “star” in social media as an “influencer”. A Hollywood Star is an ACTOR – someone who plays and portrays a character in a play, movie, or tv series. “Plays” and “portrays” – Bettina claims she is a “stay at home mom” – not a wife, or a mom. A philanthropist – where does the MONEY come from? Where is the claim to fame to ELEVATE this “production” of an influencing human being?
Until the American public breaks the hold of these actors on our minds set to influence and manipulate us into submission, we will continue to be held captive and seemingly in a state of Stockholm Syndrome. No, it is not okay to be enamored with our psychological abusers who take away our freedoms through the Patriot Act and who… gradually and nominally… give us just a little bit of our freedom back to placate and pacify the masses, while they’re STILL STEALING OUR DATA AND OUR FREEDOM in violation of our 4th amendment Constitutional right.
Let me put it this way… is an elected official really elected by We The People… if they are installed by the Uniparty?
Beware of those wolves who infiltrate in sheep’s clothing. Leaders appointed and anointed BY GOD do not come in the appearance or person of the socially and publicly acceptable or popular. An anointed will go through great conflict in their lives as they learn and live the Will of The Lord God Almighty.
Public, please wake up. Please break the GLOBAL MIND CONTROL set upon us using the global media and the pacification and failure to critically think repeatedly taught in our educational institutions that have now become political prisoner compounds incarcerating our children. Please, wake up.
Donald Trump, Sr. is anointed… the devil uses that which and who we value most to be our Achilles heel and the devil will infiltrate and slap its seal onto things that are clearly anointed to lower one’s person or cause’s integrity and trustworthiness.
I am continually praying for our President and our country – to break the spiritual and psychological warfare chains. We are all being enslaved to this, so that we will not fight the worldwide power grab. We must return to God and value the individual person’s right to live and freedom and salvation through Christ Jesus – no matter where that person resides in the world. We must never steal peoples’ identities and the right to grow and live as God Created them.
And Don Jr – listen carefully – put your apparatus back in your pants and consider “cooling off periods” between mistresses. Find within yourself why you are emotionally weak minded and easily steerable. Stay out of politics and SUPPORT YOUR FATHER and the AMERICAN PEOPLE and not the FAMILY BRAND.

Hi Colkitto,
Daughter and I were traversing Central Indiana yesterday – mainly back roads about 300 miles traveled yesterday – and I saw… home after home… farm after farm… dilapidated, abandoned, and in total disrepair. Homesteads that appeared recently departed. Rusting and broken cars parked in perpetual ghost town condition – with natural overgrowth and mold growth, broken windows… some with public no trespassing signs… most without.
I was thinking about what Elon Musk said in an interview. The problem is not with overpopulation. The footprint of humanity on the world is a relatively minute percentage. The problem is that we are being conditioned to be replaced… replaced by other “cultures” as Vivek RamaswamPy lovingly alludes to… who are outnumbering us 10:1 with their divergent offspring and who are flooding our country in replacement theory.
In Indiana, we have thousands upon thousands of acres of land that is going unworked and unmaintained. What was in the minds of those homesteaders when they parked that dying car one last time, when they left the home and sometimes even furnishings… and never came back? Did they age out of the homes, or were they offered a better deal? These were not properties dressed up and prepared for sale… they’re utter ghost towns. We passed through an itty bitty Indiana town with one of those light up arrow boards – announcing that little town’s meeting for its “10 year plan”. I’m telling you and the Treepers here… that town is GONE IN TEN YEARS if the globalists have their ways.
We’re losing our American heritage. Globalism is swallowing up heritage and legacies, skill, and knowledge.

“For nearly half a century have I anxiously and critically studied that invaluable treasure [the Bible]; and I still scarcely ever take it up that I do not find something new – that I do not receive some valuable addition to my stock of knowledge or perceive some instructive fact never observed before. In short, were you to ask me to recommend the most valuable book in the world, I should fix on the Bible as the most instructive both to the wise and ignorant. Were you to ask me for one affording the most rational and pleasing entertainment to the inquiring mind, I should repeat, it is the Bible; and should you renew the inquiry for the best philosophy or the most interesting history, I should still urge you to look into your Bible. I would make it, in short, the Alpha and Omega of knowledge.” …….

These people were dead. Their children do not want to farm IF they had any children and grandchildren not addicted to drugs.
It used to be, in America, that thousands of small towns had a few manufacturing plants nearby that allowed people to live outside of the cities while the locals had good jobs.
When these factories closed due to our leaders selling Americans out to China then the jobs left and the people left.
When manufacturing returns to the USA they will put their facilities slightly outside of cities and nearer to rural areas which will encourage people to return to little towns because there are jobs to be had.
Methland by Nick Reding is an informative book about what has happened in our heartland.
I would note that we all just saw a bunch of Somalians brought in to take factory jobs and subsidized so they could work more cheaply than Americans, and we also saw even “conservative” politicians being okay with this.
And who is subsidizing the drug flow into America? And when our citizens are not indulging in illegal drugs – our big Pharma is happy to help with the inducement and mental capture. Why only two countries (USA & New Zealand) in the world allow pharmaceutical marketing directly to consumers?
It’s all by design. America is being dismantled from within.
And people are too hung up on celebrity worship to notice the ones being worshipped are directing the dismantling.
Ty so much for your personal observations JWoo my friend. I’m going to try and drop you a real response to this excellent insightful post on tomorrows OT. You made me recall personal stories about this that really got to me.
Slainte
Blessings, Colkitto. It’s important for us to view clearly evidence of how disastrous the establishments policies have been on the American public… then just maybe… we won’t be satisfied with just a partial success.

Colkitto,
When watching our annual Christmas parade
this year, the increase in number of private and
parochial schools participating was definitely
noticeable!
It would be interesting to get the actual statistics,
but it appears that only 1/4 of eligible elementary
and middle school students attend public education .
High school age private schools seemed to be less represented.,
I am expecting that to change in the future.
I know that homeschooling is big where I live, and that
block of students was not really represented…. I believe there
was one float filled with children representing the
homeschool community.
Looked like the private and parochial schools are challenging
each other in competition on which schools are the best…..
not in sports-but learning!👏👏

That is great news my friend. One of my pals at work, who is MAGA, younger guy, was home schooled and me & a few of the guys at work have been showing him the truth. Many of the 20 somethings are MAGA so it is encouraging. And that includes many Black Americans

Another crack was watching Kellyanne Conway hosting a “discussion” with pearl clutchers admonishing the American people that if they have a problem with their health insurance company they need to take it through the courts vs doing a Luigi Mangione. IDK what the answer is but aligning with the elites to tell Americans that they should perform a miracle and take a multinational to court is ridiculous and drags MAGA down. This issue is far from over and our internet is so broken that I can’t even find and link this idiocy that I saw on TV and I spent too much time trying.
“Health”nsurance is ridiculous on its face.
They seem to be trying to deflect blame onto one particular facet of the giagantic criminal racket we call health care.
Perfect example of garbage science. See if you can figure out what the actual cause of the depression probably is.
New Research Links Plant-Based Meat to Depression
December 27, 2024
https://scitechdaily.com/new-research-links-plant-based-meat-to-depression/
Professor Nophar Geifman, from the School of Health Sciences at the University of Surrey, and senior author of the study, said: “The overall findings are reassuring, suggesting that plant-based meat alternatives may be a safe option when they are part of an overall balanced diet. However, the potential link between these types of food, inflammation, and depression warrants further investigation.”

DEI and the CIA
26 Dec 2024
https://americanmind.org/salvo/dei-and-the-cia/
To underscore how deeply DEI has metastasized inside the host, in a recent enlightening and publicly available statement, the CIA’s Chief DEI officer said there are three criteria by which an intelligence officer can be promoted at America’s most important foreign intelligence service. Only one of them is related to mission impact. The others are a rather vague “corporate mindset”—and DEI.
Of the three, adherence to the cant of DEI is the most important; those who do not vocally and unreservedly support it are denied promotions and meaningful assignments. Like rallies held by authoritarian regimes, you do not want to be the first to stop clapping at the approved, serial pronouncements.
American Maoism | James Lindsay (1:51:35)
New Discourses
14 Sep 2023
The Left moves operationally and according to a battle logic known as “dialectical political warfare.” The dialectic is the operating system of the Left, and it works by marrying a truth to a lie. Political warfare is a method of conducting warfare in which political means are used with hostile intent to get an enemy to behave in a desired fashion—propaganda is a great example. Perhaps the greatest dialectical political warfare tactician in human history is the monstrous figure of Mao Zedong, Communist dictator of China until his death in 1976. His tactics and cultural revolution are a testament to the fearsome and destructive power of dialectical political warfare, and they’re happening here in America and throughout the West today. Where Mao claimed to be employing “Marxism-Leninism with Chinese characteristics” in China, the “Woke” and environmental “Sustainability” movements we face in the present should be described as “Maoist Marxism with American Characteristics.” ***In this lecture from Dr. James Lindsay of New Discourses, the parallels between our experience today and the tools utilized in China under Mao will be made so clear that the unavoidable conclusion will be that we are living through nothing less than American Maoism.***

100% confirmation of that from an unexpected source. Language warning:

Gates is an international nuisance.
arrest Bill Gates?
he will be hanging out with all the cool kids at Mar Largo tonight
he is a changed man
just Like Elon, JD, Vivek and RFK jr
didn’t you know that??
I have not seen any stories indicating that Gates has been anywhere in the vicinity of Mar-a-Lago or DJT.
He is, IMHO, a different animal from the other “tech bros” who are crowding around the President. Gates has always been a pathological narcissist who truly believes that he is smarter than God and should, therefore, be in charge of the world. Money means nothing to him – only power – and I do not expect him to come around looking for favors from the new Administration.
If you have any links showing that he has been to MAL please share them…I do not trust him as far as I could spit him and I hope that the President learned his lessons well from 2017, when he was planning to appoint RFK Jr to a commission to look into vaccines and Bill Gates warned him off and said it would be a “bad idea”. Imagine how differently things could have gone if he had ignored that advice and gone ahead with the commission!!
I’m calling BS.
If there is any truth to this…link to the original PDJT tweet…not to some image anyone with a computer could create in about 2 seconds to say anything they want to fabricate out of thin air.
“Where are you? When are you coming to the “Center of the Universe,” Mar-a-Lago. Bill Gates asked to come, tonight. We miss you and x! New Year’s Eve is going to be AMAZING!!! DJT”

Energy companies sh0uld put a 25% tariff on every ounce of carbon based fuel that goes into New York
… or better yet, don’t send any fuel to States that pull this crap.
75b tax? OK, we don’t do any business in your state!
If only they would.
When do you think they will get after the EV Mfg co.along with the rest of the green energy bunch. They have don and will do more damage to the environment than coal oil Nat gas or any other carbon based fuel will ever do.These people are idiots.
Just another way for new York to get the rest of the country to fund new Yorks irresponsible spending priorities.
I was just reading an article over at Gateway Pundit about Jug Ears being the biggest loser of 2024. In the article is this statement:
“Obama, who campaigned vigorously for Kamala Harris, framed the election as a choice between values and character.”
And I thought, youbetcha: Our values vs. your character!
To paraphrase an infamous sentence from a German play of the 1920’s:
Whenever I hear the word ‘values,’ I reach for my revolver!
VIRTUES!!!
“Values” is an economic term, which has wrongly replaced the proper word of Virtues!
“Values” is used for Relativist Morality, because things can fluctuate in “value.”
Please, MAObama, do you know what VIRTUES are?
Most in the administration or connected to it as ZERO is, they don’t know what honesty and integrity is either!
the American people are the biggest loser of 2024
they are too busy pretending to even notice it.
Too many are brainwashed. So many believe what teevee tells them!
We have folks who believe late night entertainment like Jimmy Fallon and Steven Colbert over what their friends and family tell them.
You can add PBS and NPR plus Netflix to that. I never walk in my brother’s house that one or the other of them isn’t on.

Elon Musk admits retaliation: removes Loomer’s verification, subscriptions after H1B criticism.
https://citizenwatchreport.com/elon-musk-admits-retaliation-removes-loomers-verification-subscriptions-after-h1b-criticism/
Elon hasn’t figured out that free speech thing yet apparently. Some genius.
Don’t forget…Elon is a lefty…he may have partnered with PDJT because the Democrats are now to the left of Stalin…which makes him…and RFK, Jr., and many others seem middle of the road…or slightly right of center…that’s just because of how the Democrats yanked the Overton window to the extreme left.
We’re back to pretending any criticism of the system is the same as hating Indians.

Some people hope for “a cease-fire” in Ukraine. But all of this is utter nonsense: the Russians are never going to be so deceived again. “A Korea-style ‘DMZ'” is simply a re-statement of “Minsk 1 & 2,” during which the West simply intended to buy time to re-arm their proxy again.
Unlike “the West,” Russia still has the industrial power to manufacture weapons and the other essential materials of war. And, nationally, they have never forgotten – nor will ever forget – what “real War” actually is. And, what it costs.
They are going to drive this “Special Military Operation” to the final objectives under which it was started – and achieve every one of them. “Westerners,” drinking their tequilas in their oh-so comfortable boardrooms, are not going to deprive them of this: victory.
Oh, wait. “Victory.” Perhaps this term has become unfamiliar to you lately . . .
Drinking tequilas? Are you serious?
A ceasefire is the only way the Russians get out of this without collapsing. Then they get to cope with Pariah status for the next 50 years.
In your world the Ukrainians are outside the Gates of Moscow!
In Congress, It’s Time To Use the Dems Against Themselves

Great column.
On American Thinker.
That’s the Spirit!
My sentiments exactly!!!

I don’t think we need NEW FOREIGN AI workers. TRAIN US AMERICANS!
NOR do I think we need to move to MARS.
I sure hope ELON IS using his OWN MONEY to take himself home to MARS!
I’d like to see a poll asking WHO WANTS TO MOVE TO MARS?
I like mars candy bars. Does that count?
What adventurous soul wouldn’t want to visit Mars? People should be colonizing Earth’s Orbit, the Moon and Mars.

From a recent Dr. Robert Malone Sunday (Comic) Strip noting DEI in ads. Have you noticed this?
I really don’t care, it just shows how much the neo-Maost cultural revolution of the senile tool regime elected in 2020 by useful idiots (and simulants) who recently nearly elected (in popular vote – 48.3% vs Trump’s 49.8%) a life history proven Marxist/Maoist duo has affected national trends:
From today’s Simplicius post regarding Palantir:
The DailyMail article makes interesting mention of Ukraine’s salience to the Bilderberg group, given other notable members:
[Palantir] CEO Alex Karp, who also sits on the Bilderberg steering committee, recently highlighted Palantir’s impact, stating the company was ‘responsible for most of the targeting in Ukraine.’
This direct link to modern warfare exemplifies how Thiel’s tech empire aligns with Bilderberg’s interests in security and military investment.
[Stoltenberg’s] tenure as NATO chief was dominated by the Russia-Ukraine conflict and increasing NATO expansion, making him a natural choice to steer Bilderberg’s discussions on transatlantic defense.
I wonder how this will affect PDJT’s effort to end the hostilities in Ukraine and his relationship with Thiel...
There’s more…
This adds a fascinating context to the Bilderberg story, particularly given the mention of Palantir CEO Alex Karp and Peter Thiel both being top Bilderbergers. Now with the hiring of Stoltenberg, we can again see the contours of the global deep state’s structure: it consists of military and intelligence-linked bigwigs chairing secret syndicates attended by all the world’s top business and political leaders. As you can readily imagine, the war drums are beaten hard and ‘grave threats’ played up all to keep the gravy train flowing in the endless finance-military-industrial complex cycle.
From the Financial Times:
Meanwhile, Thiel’s growing influence at Bilderberg also signals a convergence of tech innovation and military strategy.
His robotics company, Anduril, and Palantir have both capitalized on the global arms race race, reflecting the group’s longstanding ties to defense and intelligence.
Thiel’s ideological alignment with Trump and his tech-driven contributions to defense provide a modern reflection of Bilderberg’s founding ethos – melding elite influence with geopolitical strategy.
Excellent observations regarding the H1b visa program Elon and Vivek are championing to fill tech jobs. Vivek goes so far as to say Americans champion mediocrity and that’s why we need Foreigners. No, universities would rather admit foreigners from China and India because they get massive dollar incentives from those countries and grants from the US government to fill slots with “minorities and Foreigners”. Abolish the DEI priorities and admit American students!
“INGRASSIA: What Elon and Vivek Get Wrong About The H-1B Visa Debate”
Excerpts:
Within the tech industry, where the program is especially popular, advocates maintain that there is a shortage of high-skilled computer programmers and engineers, and so H-1B visas are an indispensable part to the long term continued growth of their industry.
Elon Musk personally got involved and added a geopolitical layer to the debate: arguing that without these workers, America would be at risk of falling behind foreign competitors in the race for artificial intelligence, thus opening itself to a parade of national security horribles over the long run if countries like China and India presumably get these workers instead.
In many cases, owing to a combination of affirmative action, DEI, white resentment, and federal grants, many seats that otherwise should be allocated to gifted, native-born American students are given to Chinese or Indian foreign exchange students instead.
These universities receive mass funding from both our government to take in foreigners – in addition to foreign governments and foreign alumni who graduated from them.
For example, China has contributed billions of dollars to the Ivy League schools in recent decades. In many cases, American universities obtain foreign gifts and contracts from adversarial governments.
So, the cultural issue is not so much the incentivization of “mediocrity,” as Ramaswamy opined, but a system geared towards the promotion of “equity” and “foreigners” over and above the American citizen.

Anyone remember Vance making his “childless women with cats” remark? I didn’t think it was funny. For some reason many people heard “crazy cat ladies” and accused people like me of lacking a sense of humor, but he didn’t say crazy he said childless.
One of my objections was that there was already a divide among younger men, between parents and non-parents, and younger men without kids were not voting.
Another reason that I was insisting that the VP candidate should just shut up about whether or not people should have kids, other than its being divisive, is that I knew then what talk of population decline/collapse often morphs into. In fact, such talk gets deliberately introduced by unseen actors, i.e. propagandists.
You hear “Americans aren’t having enough children”, and it is very often the prelude to, “we’d better import a bunch of foreigners or there won’t be enough workers to fill all the jobs”.
I could talk about everything wrong with that idea, but I’d be all day at it.
Anyway, when you suddenly start hearing the same thing over and over, somebody is trying to brainwash you.
BTW, back to those white men who didn’t vote –
IIRC Sundance did an article on how they came through for Trump in the last election.
Yet I see people right here agreeing with Vivek about how poorly raised and poorly educated that generation is.
Amen Clarion.
Young women are not very interested in having kids these days.. Much of the younger kids do not even make eye contact anymore.
How do you get more kids when the kids out there now don’t even know how to talk to each other??
The kids of today have no faith in the direction of our world. They view child bearing as forcing future children into a lifetime of the misery they are experiencing. They don’t know what “better” looks like – nor do they know what “faith living” looks like – nor do they know of parents who are not completely broken by today’s systems of mental and societal reprogramming.
They don’t know the days before the internet. They do not have community or group accountability as we had in the neighborhoods of our youth where socially responsible people held others accountable for reprehensible acts. Now it’s not politically correct to admonish and to redirect.
What kids do know… is things are seriously messed up and their parents are too held hostage to unravel it all.
when you suddenly start hearing the same thing over and over, somebody is trying to brainwash you.
I think I’ll apply that to bird flu.
Here is a scary thought. FJB Could pardon every illegal that has crossed the Southern border. President Trump will have his work cut out for him to clean up the Department of Justice
“INGRASSIA: From Chaos to Control: President Trump’s Vision for a Revitalized DOJ”
Excerpts:
Since that ridiculous action, many observers have been concerned that Biden would take things a step further, anticipating the next administration’s crackdown on illegal migrants, and propose a nationwide pardon on all twenty million-plus illegals, all of whom committed crimes by crossing the southern border, before he leaves office.
Whether or not that happens, it underscores the urgency with which President Trump’s DOJ must act to prosecute dangerous criminals (including violent aliens) – and particularly those, as the President-elect opined on Truth Social, who abuse children and commit rape and murder.
The bottom line is a dramatic change in policy and rhetoric is needed to restore trust in judicial institutions nationwide. If we are to preserve being a country governed by the rule of law, and not of men, we must inculcate a culture of deference and respect for law enforcement.
This is a horrible look for America’s judicial systems, and something that must be stopped once and for all. DOJ should work hand-in-glove with US attorneys across the states to coordinate a strategy to put pressure on rogue District Attorneys, Special Counsels, and Attorneys General to end their lawfare — and create a strong precedent so that it never occurs again.
Those who committed the worst abuses, like Willis, must be held accountable for their actions to the fullest extent of the law.
The punishment must fit the crime, which, in Willis and Bragg’s cases, have wrought monumental damages upon not only the integrity of Georgia’s justice system, but also has destroyed the lives of many great Americans – including Jeff Clark, John Eastman, and Rudy Giuliani, and countless others – all of whom were subject to the inhumane and unjust actions of these prosecutors, and paid a mighty personal and professional price for it – upending their lives and livelihoods for years in many cases.

I don’t see how a pardon can be issued to nameless individuals.
Did it with the draft dodgers.
I’m not certain, but they may have had to show up or apply somehow to take advantage of the pardon.
It was a long time ago so I’m hazy on the details.
