The professionally Republican wing of the GOPe want this shutdown ended just as much as the professionally Democrat wing. The UniParty cannot allow Trump/Vought this much power. Republicans cannot allow Trump this much power.
The Moonbat leftists are not the biggest problem, they never have been. They are ideologues, mostly. Insufferable, stupid, violent at times, but easy to spot.
Remember, Democrats quest for power; Republicans quest for money. Always underline this because it’s really important.
The Moonbat leftists seek power, seek control of your life, and they are open in their insufferably stupid arguments to get there. When they start to lose, they turn violent. This is their history.
That said, they are not the most dangerous.
The professional Republicans are more dangerous, because their priority is money. As a result, their approaches, goals, objectives and arguments can be purchased.
Republicans have no interests, goals or objectives, nor allegiances, that supersede their primary objective – getting money, and growing their wealth.
Democrats will come at you with a knife, a gun or a baseball bat. You can see them. The professional Republican guy standing beside you, however, is willing to take a payment to shoot you in the ear when you don’t see it coming.
This is also why it seems like Democrats stick together, and Republicans split. Democrats are chasing a common goal, a collective goal – power. Republicans are chasing a commonality, yes, but an individual goal – money, their wealth.
Donors contribute to the Democrat agenda because their interest is to benefit from power. Republicans modify their agenda to benefit donors, because their goal is money.
Democrats stay on task, power. Republicans are flexible, money.
You enter a war against Leftists with extreme danger. However, the danger is not the war in front of you, it’s the army beside you waiting to get a payment from the enemy in front of you.
Out of a group of 1,000 Democrats, 900+ will join in to defend a weakened Moonbat leftist (see Kimmel).
Out of a group of 1,000 Republicans, you will find, maybe, 5 willing to cover your back regardless of how much bribery is put in front of them.
Remember this, understand this and the reality of who presents the most danger to us is accurately framed.
Republicans do not simply snatch defeat from the jaws of victory; they sell defeat to the highest bidder!
In our lifetime we have watched this unfold.
There were Democrats with the same outlook as Republicans; they were known as “blue dog” democrats. The Blue Dogs were willing to compromise power, to sell power, in return for financial payment.
Traditional ‘Blue Dogs’ were names like Hillary and Bill Clinton; their prism was the assembly of money. However, this group faced the introduction of hardline ideological believers – the communists or Marxists represented by Barack Obama.
Obama Inc. battled Clinton Inc. to determine the future of the Democrats. The ideologues won, and the democrat Blue Dogs in their tribe, those willing to concede ideology for money, were purged from their ranks. Modern Democrats, post Obama takeover, are now pure ideologues.
“By any means necessary” is the operational objective of modern leftists. This is why government under Obama flipped the switch so openly and began weaponizing power. Purging govt agencies and replacing the staff with ideologues. Crushing opposition, by brute force and targeting.
Simultaneously, in the smaller Republican ranks, there was a small group who wanted to face down the same battle inside the Republican Party. The original Tea Party represented this group. A smaller assembly trying to put ideology, freedom and liberty at the forefront of the Republican objective.
Unlike the leftist effort, the Tea Party effort inside the Republican Party failed. Republican leadership crushed the liberty rebellion, and went back to business taking money from the ideological Marxists who now ruled the centers of power.
People, who didn’t quite understand what was taking place, stood and watched, frustrated, at the dynamic of Republicans who conceded every battle to the left.
What the abused GOP viewers didn’t understand was the core of the issue; Democrats want power, Republicans want money.
Each time the Republicans could win on a policy issue, they sold the loss to Democrats. Battered conservatives grew more frustrated and more frustrated.
Now we enter the era of MAGA, represented by billionaire Donald J. Trump, who, like Obama before him, began the fight inside the Republican Party.
The Tea Party rebellion quickly reengaged Trump and formed MAGA; the ideological fight inside the Republican party, liberty over money, was on again.
MAGA represents opposition to the leftist ideological advancement. But the Republican assembly will not concede. In a way their resistance makes sense.
If liberty and freedom become the priority, the advancement of personal wealth becomes more difficult. Simultaneously, if retention and assembly of wealth is the priority, liberty and freedom ideologues become impediments. Again, MAGA within Republicanism must be crushed when money is the priority.
This internal Republican battle has been unfolding in various reference points for almost a decade now, while the internal Democrat battle was long ago decided.
The root issue within the Republican apparatus still surrounds the greatest evil. ‘The love of money is the root of all evil.’
This conflict has not yet been fully decided, yet admittedly -and thankfully- MAGA has made some significant gains. The Republican Party now has a lower income demographic and a more ideological working class base.
However, don’t be fooled. The top tier of the Republican apparatus is mostly unchanged; albeit, they are facing more entrenched ideological opposition from the awakened MAGA forces. The top tier will still sell out the base, still compromise for personal profit, and still take payment for policy.
This brings us to where we are today.
Inside the MAGA assembly, we are trying to identify which Republican leaders have shifted to the MAGA/liberty viewpoint, and which Republican leaders are playing the long game while retaining their DNA level objective – get money.
Each day on these pages, and many others, the ‘trust’ factor is raised; this is completely understandable. We have a strong muscle memory for betrayal, and we all bear the scars to remind us. It is fitting and proper that these conversations take place.
After all, it’s interesting to watch professional Republicans discuss how agencies like the DOJ and FBI have lost the institutional trust of the American people due to corruption, while simultaneously those same Republicans never note trust loss within the Republican Party as a result of their willful blindness to it.
“For the love of money is the root of all evil...” First Timothy 6:10.
“…a root”
It can be translated either way. That is why English Bibles read one way or the other.
Both are correct.
In the Greek, the definite article is present, so I’ll have to stay with “the root…” Which makes sense, since no other “roots of all evil” are mentioned.
In fact the Greek has no definite article associated with “root.” The definite article is often supplied in English regardless depending on context and, frankly, the decision of the Bible translation committee.
Pictured: Interlinear Greek, 2 Timothy 6:10.
Footnotes
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Timothy%206%3A10&version=NET
Money is a tool; a gun is a tool; a hammer is a tool. We know the USE of the tool, as a help or hurt, is the responsibility of the user. As the verse indicates, the sin of money is the action we take: the greed, the coveting of what others have, the taking as theft.
Money is symbolic of time spent working, and the level of difficulty of the work. We are not entitled to others money for work not performed. In real life, the “equitable distribution” of outcome is by value of input merit. We know that communism fails when we expect others to work for us without reward, for there is no longer a purpose to work at all. To be an ideologue Democrat almost requires you to ignore the fundamental purposes of “das kapital” / money. As noted recently, they don’t really want a share in the “means of production” decisions, which can be outsourced to a small group of technocrat elites. Ideologues want the redistributed results. And that requires centralized control to force behavior, which is what authoritarian fascist governments do best. So ideological thirst for power IS their means to an end, an end that ignores the concept of money as a symbol of individual value and work.
Hi PS.
The verse doesn’t say anything like what your third sentence says.
‘the sin of money’ ? – No.
“the love of money” – Yes.
The politics of it I’ll leave to others.
The Marxist fantasy of the authentic life is that work by itself can be the reward if distributed “equally”.
And the next guy that tries it will finally get it right.
Of course…. because all of the other guys just didn’t do it right.
“The Marxist fantasy of the authentic life is that work by itself can be the reward if distributed “equally”.”
Exactly. Marxism is fundamentally an atheist construct/worldview. Man made attempts to create Godless utopias will never succeed because they fail to take into account man’s fallen nature; i.e., man’s tendency toward concupiscence.
Equal distribution of wealth depends on charity and altruism. Monks such as the Carthusians, et al., can accomplish this because their rule is based on the Ten Commandments and Our Lord’s instructions on how to live. Fallen man does not come by these virtues naturally (without Grace) and these utopias will always fail – not if but when.
Well that definitely violates the 10th Commandment (covet) and the 7th Commandment (steal).
But I’d go with “them that don’t work don’t eat.”
2 Thessalonians 3:10, which states, “For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat” (KJV). This verse was a specific instruction from the Apostle Paul to the church in Thessalonica to encourage a strong work ethic and discourage idleness, as some were choosing not to work and expecting to be supported by others.
Well, whatever number the covet and steal Commandments are. 🙂
As one analyst put it, the love of money might be the root of all evil, but in politics, it’s also the root of endless compromise
In politics, endless compromise IS evil.
Here is a translation that better reflects the sense of the original “the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils”
In the original Greek word “root” is singular and “evil” plural.
This teaching of Paul ties in with the teaching of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 6:24)
“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.” (The Greek word for money is Mammon).
Honesty, I know how you feel.
Knowing my fellow man as I do, I’ll stick with the love money. Sure there are other roots of wickedness but not like the desire for money & what it buys. Look at our politicians. They enter politics with no wealth and leave very rich. All of them. AOC worth 6 million. How? Pelosi worth who knows? Dan Crenshaw comes to mind, Mitch McConnell and others. What was Harry Truman’s quote? “Show me a politician who gets rich in service to his country & I’ll show you a crook! The professor is spot on. The GOP is shameless.
Do you know that money was invented about 700 BC?
Some king in Turkey decided to standardize weights of precious metals and stamp his face on it.
And it wasn’t king Midas. Though they were near each other in space and time.
Many think the biblical shekel first referred to a weight and then became a coin. Others think it was written after coins were invented.
Sticking one’s face on a coin was still considered taboo in Israel. That is why it was so effective for Jesus to ask about Ceasar’s image when someone was trying to trip him up about paying Roman taxes.
It is funny though. When something is so useful it spreads everywhere very quickly. And in short order nobody can imagine life without it.
If money can be seen as man’s system of valuation (our value is in the work of our flesh) that supplants God’s system of valuation (our worth to Him as children / our souls), then yes, man’s system is evil (Pro 20:10). Equate it with the mark of the beast – upon the forehead as symbolic of a man who accepts the world’s understanding instead of yielding to the mind of Christ, and upon the hands as symbolic of our labor on behalf of man’s system instead of devoting ourselves to the work of God.
Silly example here, once I did a photo video project for a doctor’s son who was graduating. In receiving payment for my week of work I mused that I’d have to pay him the same for a 20 minute appointment with him. He remarked “my time is worth more than yours”. I replied “Really? How long will you live?” He said “85 years, give or take.” I said “Same here. I reckon our time has equal value then”.
If the Lord’s aim for us is liberty as sons of God in Christ (Gal. 5:1), then money has become a means of enslaving us in this life. Control the mind and hands, enslave the person – without visible chains.
President Trump sure is making the Schumer Shutdown fun. Here’s a meme, there’s a meme, everywhere there’s a meme meme. 😂
Or did you mean a mean meme?
Republican/Democrat all just political labels. Let’s call them by WHAT they really are. Parasites. Perhaps Pfizer could come up with a vaccine for that?
Forget Pfizer.
Congress needs a big dose of political ivermectin.
With a side of Fenbendazole..
And a radiation enema.
Worm Control!
Ivermectin for both parties would be paper ballots/same day voting.
Sen. Cornyn badly need double dose of Ivermectin….asap
Yeah no doubt he needs a ….double….something….
What he really needs is a pop in the mouth, but I am a little old for fisticuffs.
That is why they don’t like ivermectin.
May I use this?
Perfectly stated!
Cheers!
Of course! We’re all in this together. Thanks for the kudos.
Or ticks…poli-ticks. Parasite works as well. Nothing but contempt for these prostitutes. The entirety of CONgress, with no exceptions, is disgusting.
Tell insider trading Nancy Piglosi that the Dem’s aren’t in it for the money as well.
Dems use money to gain power.
Kinda like how Nancy built a huge expensive wall around her house while the wall on the southern border was being dismantled and the doors flung open.
And Repups use power to gain money.
“After all, it’s interesting to watch professional Republicans discuss how agencies like the DOJ and FBI have lost institutional trust of the American people due to corruption, while simultaneously those same Republicans never note trust loss within the Republican party as a result of their willful blindness to it.”
Trillions at stake and they aren’t going to let a single dollar slip through their grasp if they have any say so about it. We stopped being their concern decades ago, but at least it is now obvious to millions more awakened citizens.
When did CON-servatives take over?
GHWB?
I watched Neo-CONS attack Trump, but so too the CONS attacked Trump. For implementing some conservative things!
This morning, I saw some resentful dupe of the CON trying to attack Sundance over Sundance pointing out that the origin of the Alligator Emoji CON was the Cruz CON.
There is nothing that these CONS won’t use against us. If there is something dear to us, they will use it to CON us. Family. Patriotism. Religion. So many, many, different CONS are used to dupe us conservatives.
That also happens with things conservatives oppose. The CONS are always trying to dupe us.
I pray that OMB makes permanent reductions in force. 200K? 500K?
Be Statesmen. Don’t dance and delight in others being released. They are Fathers, Mothers, Veterans, citizens, many Christians.
The message should be to save Social Security, Medicaid, and our country.
Debt – $37 Trillion
Deficit – $2 Trillion
Interest payments – $1 Trillion per year
The goals of both parties brought us here
To the best of my knowledge, none of President Trump’s EOs have been codified. A replay, if I’m not mistaken (and I may be), of the ones he issued in his first term. Remember Biden signing document after document rescinding each one on Day One of his illegitimate time in office.
Permanence is something which applies only to the corruption, grift, and self preservation which have replaced duty, patriotism, and honour.
That’s why we call them politicians and not statesmen. No moral call to service instead of to themselves.
Godot will show up before any of that changes.
Exactly! All the MAHA changes being planned for 2027. Once the mid terms happen, if GOP loses the house, nothing will be done. It bothers me that Trump seems oblivious to the danger inside our own ranks.
The OBBB did indeed put many Trump priorities in legal stone.
Why do you think the Dems are desperate to gut it now?
A leopard may appear to change one or two spots. But experience has shown that this is merely an illusion…or trompe l’oeil as I tend to think of Republicans appearing to present themselves as actually working for the betterment of America’s own…but in fact are a sorry last in the list of their priorities to maintain their sinecures.
A question I’ve learned to ask when Rs with great effort and drama are forced to do the “right thing” is “What’s in it for them?”
There is always, always something.
Betsy, MTG was just on Bannon’s War Room preaching your message. I give her kudos for that !!
We Deplorables have every right to celebrate. The gubmint has been sucking us dry since FDR. We’ve been feeling the pain, now they need to feel it. They get no sympathy from me, zip, zero, nada.
I’m not celebrating, but like you – I haven’t an iota of sympathy. …And why would I?
This government has been burning our country to the ground for decades. Year after year, more arsonists are added to payroll and more fuel added to fire.
Celebrate like rookies, and help lose some in the middle.
Our biggest $ problems are entitlements. Sure, firing 200,000 federal workers would save a lot of money.
200,000 x $106,000 (avg salary) = $21B. Figure the govt Overhead, fringe, and G&A multiple is 4-5 and that’s $100B/yr.
Yes, that is a lot of money, but consider that the War Dept budget is $900B-$1,000B. Entitlement spending in 2024? $3,750B ($3.75T)
And we’re all sucking on that teet in some way. Whether it’s an elderly parent or grandparent on Medicare, or we live near an urban core where Welfare serves as riot insurance, or countless military vets collecting “disability”, etc etc.
Then there’s all the subsidies, like for farmers. Energy subsidies. Education.
Easy to throw rocks at govt employees. But remember that about 1/3 of them are probably MAGA. And the problem isn’t solely their doing.
The problem is us.
I would tend to disagree with your assessment that 1/3 of government employees are MAGA.
I have seen what happens to people working in government organizations. They may start out with conservative ideas, but over time, those ideas are eroded by the endless drip, drip of hate and negativity spewed at them. And they would be ostracized if they ever popped their heads up. So eventually, they are not conservative anymore, because it’s just too hard.
Clean out the rot and start over. Then a government job might actually be a decent place for a conservative to work again.
No, 30% is probably about right, mainly driven by military retirees and Fed employment in deep red states.
I support aggressive cutting. But people thinking manpower cuts will fix the budget don’t understand the federal budget and their person take on the spoils inherent to the system.
No cuts yet at DOD. Just grandstanding.
They took a couple meaningful steps. The hiring freeze has been in place since about February. Thousands of DoD civilians took the DRP buyout and the freeze keeps them from being replaced. And a 25% cut to certain classifications of contractors has been going on all year.
Long way to go, but more is needed.
Trump needs to be very careful with DoD though. A large % of the civilian and contractor workforce consists of veterans…a key Trump constituency. He’s not “taking care of the vets” when he’s tossing them out in their ears with A&AS and other contract cuts.
It’s not like there’s a bunch of jobs in the regular economy people can jump to right now as we flood the labor market with govt workers. Which has a depressing effect on wages for everyone.
There’s a lot of unhealthy bloodlust directed at people who are our friends both in a real sense and ideologically.
Excellent summary. Rs in power must be confronted face to face about this exact issue. Ds must be called out as Marxists and racist Obama sympathizers.
Sundance, with all due respect, if we’re going to mention Liberty in the USA, there is no political figure except Congressmen Ron Paul who has carried this Liberty Torch for decades. Even President Reagan was a sellout by the standards of today.
Don’t quibble about imperfections, it’s Liberty and Freedom, for USA Citizens, and whoever around the world follows along, or it’s not. That’s the battle. From 1990-present, the Liberty and Freedom messages were eroded in the USA’s vassel states: Japan, South Korea, Taiwan. All populists worldwide are targeted for demolition, including MAGA Congressional Candidates. MAGA has President Trump, President Millei in Argentina and President Bukele in El Salvador.
With Matt Gaetz gone from Congress, who is the Liberty and Freedom firebrand after President Trump? More are needed to help in the battle for Freedom.
Ron Paul, who I respect, had strong conservative values, but did not deliver any meaningful legislation in his entire career as a Congressman.
Ron Paul had no Braveheart…no President Trump…yet his integrity never wavered from his conservative Lutheran upbringing.
That is nice of him but then his career should have been better spent as a preacher and teacher and he could have been the best in those fields.
Most don’t deliver major legislation because they can’t rally a majority.
And Ron Paul was also marginalized by his own party. No major committee assignments.
Rand Paul sold out. So he gets to be on some important committees and grandstand. But no legislation from him either.
Yep, just a Libertarian CON selling us out.
Rand Paul voted with the Democrats to try and keep taxpayer funding of illegals. He is despicable
Is it more grandstanding? “I’m not voting for a CR type of show.”
He knew they wouldn’t get to 60 votes, so cast an irrelevant protest vote.
Rand Paul is Mr. Irrelevant.
I respect Paul as well. Sad thing is, lobbyists write legislation who]ile politicians preen for the camera.
The uniparty rigs the ballot box. Both parties cheat.
If MAGA is to succeed then the true will of the voter must be represented at the ballot box.
The GOP party apparatus at the local and state level must be the target of involved MAGA patriot.
These are the two targets to implement lasting change. Our great President can have all his battles won erased in the next administration no matter which party wins.
Saying “both parties cheat” may technically be true. But after what we saw Democrats pull off in ’20 and ’22, there’s truly no comparison. It’s like saying “the Smallville Little League and the Philadelphia Phillies both play baseball”.
A good example is TN Republican Party: They keep the primaries open so Democrats can cross over and vote for the RINO candidate. It happens time after time. Our Governor is a RINO and it is easy to tell the down ballot RINOs by looking at who the Governor endorses. The other way to tell who is MAGA is to see the negative ads and the out of state money supporting them.
Thank you for sporadically writing on this topic to drive the concept home. It needs to be so embedded in my mindset that I automatically view all aspects of the actions of Republicans from this perspective.
Sundance —
I request that you follow up and reflect on which specific Republicans stood – and potentially did – financially gain from the reopening of the government when it happens. I would like to see a definitive focus with examples on this aspect, if possible. It would help me complete the thought process and accurately solidify my focus on this. Thank you.
Harlem Globetrotters vs, Washington Generals….
Great analysis. Thank you SD.
Fight! Fight! Fight!
They sell defeat!
That is the most honest statement about congress Republicans you will ever hear.
In California we were sold defeat; a bullet train from Los Angeles to San Francisco.
Wasn’t there supposed to be something similar from LA to Vegas?
Rush nicknamed Harry Reid “Dingy Harry” over that land scam.
How many billions? And Z I P
Make a note that nowhere in this piece is it mentioned that both parties in Washington are supposed to represent the people of this country.
Another difference is that most Democrat leaders think the Democrat Party represents the people and most Republican leaders know the Republican Party does not.
The first half of that is a flagrant lie.
Straight from the mouths of Democrat Leaders.
This post should be nailed to the tree and become required reading. It perfectly describes the context for everything we observe, from Ukraine to funding for rural hospitals and solar projects.
Well done, Sundance, and thank you for this.
William Wallace.
True!!! Thank you Sundance!!!
If ever there was a time for getting into the fray, this is it!
If you are in Texas, HERE is the most prolific (…and effective) group to join. Everyone has something they can contribute. No excuses.
Numbers matter.
If you are not in Texas, then contact Julie about starting a group in your State. Ask Julie at TTP how to use their model in your State to be an effective group. Be the burr under the saddle. It’s fun!!
<snip> while simultaneously those same Republicans never note trust loss within the Republican party as a result of their willful blindness to it. /<snip>
Ron Johnson, Ted Cruz, Jim Jordon, et all. A very big list. They never notice that WE NOTICE they never did anything about the corruption they witnessed the beginning of. Fox news is very adept at giving them all at least some semblance of legitimacy.
How many times do we need that warning?
And what does it take to rid the DeepStateSwamp of the creatures?
Stupid question, but I had to ask it.
What does it take?
A gubmint shutdown with massive layoffs, starting with the 87K armed IRS agents.
The IRS was DOGEd.
That horrible increase from the Inflation expansion Green New Deal is gone.
《
Between January and June, the IRS cut its workforce from 102,000 employees to fewer than 76,000. These staffing cuts take into account the thousands of employees who accepted deferred resignation offers.

Ok. Thanks for the reminder.
Every day. There are still tons of posters on here that post D-bad, R-good nonsense
A professional Republican RINO WATCH listing (named Rino’s) with historical details would be the ticket…
That sounds like a great idea. We could all add names, BUT we need PJT’s platform, as it were, to shame them and call them out!

John Cornyn is as RINO as they come. But now that he is up for re-election, he’s running major ads touting how he is a giant Trump support. Makes me sick.
I don’t get it when McConnell, one of the sorriest sellouts on earth, was senate majority leader for seemingly 200 years.
It would seem that if the Republicans sell influence and policy for money, bribery should be easy to spot with a little investigation.
Too bad that we have no agencies that will investigate anything other than little old ladies standing outside of abortion clinics and unruly parents at school board meetings.
They have legalized it. It’s not like hand them a wad of cash and they vote for your cause.
The Bernie model — Make your family members your campaign staff and pay them outrageously from campaign funds donated.
The Cheney model — vote the right way and get a cushy board job when you “retire”
The Pelosi model — Insider trading is legal for Congress!
The Gowdy model — Straight to TV!
The Ukraine shuffle — you know this number
The opportunities are limitless and there are more we don’t even know about. All completely legal. Unethical as all get out, but totally legal.
It will never be illegal because Congress passes the laws.
There’s always the publishing houses book reward. That’s certainly a con. What did they pay the “wise Latina” for her stupid book?
Checking off shore bank accounts may be a good place to start…..
The DemonScats and Republican’ts are waiting to punish us.
I saw an interview with Patrick Byrne yesterday on InfoWars where he said he has been alerted by sources in the District Of Criminality they have allegedly been screaming at him that Perkins Coie and other longtime DC Lawfare Firms who had their Security Clearance pulled by President Trump have been doing nothing but writing hundreds of Indictments for TREASON, for the President and ANYONE who assisted his Administration.
They mean to hang all of US.
They seem to forget the 100 million or so of us that have weapons and believe in the second amendment.
Respectfully, I heard the same thing at the Beginning of the AutoPen Reign Of Terror.
No one did anything including me.
At the rate of internal sandbagging going on now inside the Administration of The Presidents Agenda by people who fear Uniparty Retribution, and the absence of real action on Vote Integrity, not to mention lack of arrests of the Deepthroat State, I’d say there is a fair chance we are in Big Trouble come Midterms.
Then the Uniparty will have a massive leg up with the HellWorld Cyber Control Grid Noose President Trump couldn’t wait to let Techzilla slide firmly around our necks.
1) there’s more of us than them.
2) we MUST get back to God and His Laws
3) we ALL die. Question is how do we USE our lives.
You’re early. Be Afraid!!! week starts on Monday.
The demons can only kill me once. I have a daughter and nephew I raised that I’d like to see be able to raise families of their own.
Those White Pills are 100% uncut Hopium..
I’d take a Grey Pill, have a nap, and start fresh..
Charging the likes of President Trump and the rest of MAGA with treason against the state follows if they consider all of us existential threats to their “democracy” and by extension believe themselves to be the State.
They know nothing and have learned nothing.
“In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.” – Tony Montana – Scarface
Lots of things attract women. Money, power, fame. Heck, kids even join bands to get women.
But does selling your soul for sex get you anything more than being taken for a ride?
If you have power, you can get all the money.
Check the bank accounts (including the overseas ones and the ones in the Cayman Islands) of the congressmen and you will find that this statement is true.
The identical CR was proposed by the Republicans that passed when Biden was in office. That CR like this one has billions going to illegals. We, MAGA, got fooled again. Why? Ignorance doesn’t cut it. We need answers from the Oval Office.
Sources?
Clean means no change to the current status quo.
But the OBBB changed the status quo.
That is why Schumer is trying to pass a dirty CR that restores the funding to illegals that was cut by the OBBB.
“…Democrats want power, Republicans want money.”
And the worlds financial elitist’s ( money & power cartels ), want both more power and more money. I believe that is actually who Pres. Trump is fighting….or is he under their influence? R & D’s are just spoiled children, hold the parents responsible. Is Pres. Trump changing the worlds financial system controls ( October surprise)? Will the parents go nuclear to prevent that, or are they part and parcel of the reset? $64 mil dollar question?
We need to fight this battle at all levels of government I live in a location where a MAGA candidate won the Republican primary election for mayor. The next day, the losing GOP candidate in that race attended the Democrat caucus and won a spot to be on the ballot to run as a Democrat in the general. The “Dem” candidate won in the general. Talk about losing faith in political parties.
There seems to be a lot of that flipping parties going around in local races…in my county barely anyone votes for Democrats anymore, so they all became Republicans. Keeping my 👀 on all of them…
Bob Dole openly said he became Republican because that was how you got elected where he lived.
JMO.
“Republicans do not simply snatch defeat from the jaws of victory; they sell defeat to the highest bidder!”
Well, their record for snatching defeat from President Trump and his MAGA / America First movement for the past 4 years has been dismal.
The threat to President Trump from the Republican RINOs has been reduced in direct portion to the reduction in their numbers in the RNC, house and senate.
Oh, they are still a problem, but, unlike 2021, President Trump has reshaped the battlefield to sideline the remaining RINOs into a side pocket until the 2026 primary elections when more of them will be removed from the house and senate.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
In order to remain in positions to enrich themselves, the GOPe must pretend to be on his side. They will stab him in the back anytime they think they can.
How many times did they lather, rinse, repeat the pro-life agenda. Vote for us, we’re on your side. Oh, we just don’t have enough numbers to pass anything, vote for us some more.
president Trump will Do thing Right,
schumer wants all those illegal’s have free health care, here is some Americans had no health insurance how about that coward Schumer and Rino’s Republicans,
A Sundance gem of a statement: “However, the danger is not the war in front of you, it’s the army beside you waiting to get a payment from the enemy in front of you.”
The standard problem when hiring mercenaries to fight your battles.
Keep the abomination shut down. Better yet, sack whole departments and agencies that have no purpose other than a bi line in the books and overblown salaries.
Oh and please relegate the Fed to history.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
Wow! Nailed it. This frustrates me more than anything. The “clean” CR keeps spending at Covid levels, which is insane. Can MAGA/America First hold on long enough?
Well, Sundance, when so clearly described in its parts and pieces….the battle for our country clarifies EVEN MORE into a SPIRITUAL BATTLE, with the various factions even fitting Old Testament names of false gods and evil spirits……
There surely is nothing new under the sun…..
Lost my republican tag during Bush and his betrayal. Didn’t pick up a democrat one but am conservative and a proud MAGA warrior. That’s why its here and supporting President Trump.
I hear what you are saying, but you cannot be Conservative and MAGA. Their principals are not compatible. Study up.
Not sure I get your point. So are you saying you have to be republican to be someone who believes in conservatism. There was a time when President Trump thought of starting a new party and didn’t simply because of certain state rules. Being MAGA is supporting President Trump as he started the movement so I differ with your opinion.
Don’t try, it’s a trap.
By the by, I am MAGA and conservative as the day is long. Give me just the Constitution and I’m good. That would be making America great again.
Somewhat agree, somewhat disagree.
What the rank and file long thought Conservative meant is basically MAGA.
To the establishment though all those things were just label to sell themselves and disguise their true intentions.
CON-servatives have no principals. Just deceits.
Conservatives are welcome to support MAGA. Trump actually does some conservative stuff.
Conservatives get more conservative progress from Trump and MAGA than they have gotten from all the CON-servatives that have pretended to be the next Reagan.
I’ve been saying this since the GOPe helped steal the 96 GOP Primaries from America First Pat Buchanan and watch the uniparty arch Fabian council on foreign relations traitor Speaker Newtie let his CFR buddy Clinton skate from being impeached for high treason and impeached for the Lewinsky deflection mockingbird psyop
Agreed. Post to emphasize, give more space to your statement. Remember sitting amongst friends/relatives at the time, saying I hope they do not impeach him for just the Lewinsky misadventure – that there were far more important questions.
Took me years to realize that the impeachment was a setup to escape real accountability.
Ty and slainte my friend
The explanation of our problem. Once again, so clearly and succinctly stated.
Sundance, you basically confirmed what myself, and tens of millions of others are already thinking –
Republicans are the more dangerous party and can never be voted into any office – at the local, state, or national level – ever again. I am in my 50s – I never expect to vote Republican in my lifetime (and I am still a registered Republican).
Thank you for confirming my thoughts.
Presumptuous of such a bonehead who swims in the shallow end so consistently.
Never forget: Republicans do not simply snatch defeat from the jaws of victory; they sell defeat to the highest bidder!
“They sell defeat to the highest bidder” is the best succinct summary. That encapsulates it in a quick memorable phrase, which I deeply appreciate and can use to make the argument to others.
It is on US, the PEOPLE to undertake the task to provide eliminate the obvious grifters and strengthen the sinews. The primaries for 2026 loom. All states and all districts do not have possible candidates. Nonetheless, find a candidate and provide or send support where, if not sure about the replacement, you do know for sure the incumbent is an enemy. Sinking some careers of obvious backstabbers, sends a warning that the “free ride” has risks and increasing attention must be paid to the citizens.
Next week is probably when the real fun begins. I look forward to seeing what permanent changes Trump & Co. can make while the morons in the senate continue to stand there with their muzzles hanging open.
While everything written is true, one salient point is missed completely. The Democrats’ quest for power is NOT just for the sake of power; they are using that power to go for the money, also. The difference is that Democrats use political power to rob taxpayers and loot the treasury. Look at the corruption and graft uncovered by DOGE. It was all institutionalized THEFT and it went almost exclusively to leftist organizations. Absolute power leads to the PERMANENT ability to enrich oneself through the state’s authority to tax. All leftist politicians have this as their #1 priority.
This is all so depressing! Is there no hope?
If I may, consider —
“Remember, you must never under any circumstances despair. To hope and to act, these are our duties in misfortune. To do nothing and to despair is to neglect our duty.” — Doctor Zhivago/Boris Pasternak
Lord knows I have been despondent as I view the unraveling, but I keep telling myself — I am not going to quit. I will not betray those who fought – Crossing the Delaware or Omaha Beach or Antietam Creek.
Yes, plenty.
Sundance’s analysis is surface to mid-strata level correct, but also based on and holding to a rear facing reality.
The important puppet strings in Congress now run to a certain VSGPDJT. The Schumer humiliation grilling picture should tell us all that much.
It is all for show, and strategic purpose, while the ship of state is about to do a hard lurch from the Blaster role in the Master Blaster Globalist American Empire back to Constitutional Republic, if the military faction that declared victory via Hegseth the other day finishes the job.
When Hegseth told the Obama-promoted corps (*that is who was left after the Obama purge 16 years ago) that he and his staff had spent the last 8 months vetting them all, that there is no daylight between him and the Chair of the Joint Chiefs, and to resign if they can’t get on board with the Constitution as written, and also pass a PT test, that was an inflection point.
DOGE never got to the Pentagon. Why not? Because the Patriots were running their own search, map, and plan to destroy any traitors and quislings.
What are the odds cameras were focused on the faces of every single suspect Obama promoted flag officer, and that those facial expressions were analyzed in detail within a few hours of that speech? Pretty good?
Then POTUS foreshadowed for all of them (and us) that the military will be deployed across American cities to quell any civil unrest.
So it is an exceptionally good time for a shut down to deprive select internal enemies from any access to government funding, communications networks, or access, no?

** Watch the railroads.
Sure there is!
Faith brought us the likes of President Trump, and many of his supporters.
Sundance continues to give us hope, spread love and be of good cheer!
😎💪 Cluck em all!
Cheers!
i like this article a lot, in fact, i find it comforting from a “there, i said it” perspective.
the whole uniparty laid bare in one easy to read and understand article that covers it all.
takes the burden of discussing individuals off our shoulders.
with the problem thoroughly defined, we can focus on the battle.
no more cruz bots or desantis influencers to chip away at our goals.
we have been freed by the verity of the thing.
p.s.: take heart – besides golf, rising to challenges is one of PT’s favorite pastimes. 😊
And that my friends is why I am a Christian for I understand these things in the light of God’s word. These pitiful seduced and deceived individuals that desire power and money are the example of the fallen nature of man.
For those who dare to step out of the world and see things for what they are, to perceive the words of understanding those who desire instruction and the ability to reason to have wisdom and a relationship with the Creator are saved through the accomplished works of Jesus Christ.
If a person calls themselves a Christian and belongs to a church and yet does not know scripture they are putty in the hands of the adversary. The word church does not mean Christendom it means individuals who have the Lord’s Spirit within them those who hear the word and are nourished by it, individuals born of his Spirit who received his gift and use it. The corporate entities known as the church do not have power we the remnant have power when we pray in the name of Christ Jesus with understanding. This is why we can witness in real time answer to prayer ie exposing the wicked and their ways praying for truth and the manifestation of Justice. For without truth justice is impossible.
Once again pray for our leaders for the mighty courage that is required of them and for this we are thankful.
….’How do you spell love….
..MONEY….’
Fallen man ain’t fixing the world’s problems.
Seems to me both sides are at war with us, the conservatives. Do we even have a chance against these two dark forces?
Pray and pray hard. I spent the day yesterday doing just that.
A small miracle has happened to me. My family members are pulling back together and we’re having a family reunion at church on Sunday. Some of these are people I haven’t seen in 50 years!. Maybe there is hope yet. 😎
With God at the center, there is always hope. Congrats on your family reconnecting and having a reunion at church, that’s awesome!
Thank you Alleycats!
That is awesome.
On Freedom Day #3 as I observe the sun rising yet again, and birds happily chirping I’d like to share the lyrics from a song from My Fair Lady — words slightly changed to reflect USA instead of England, and a couple deleted lines.
There’ll be spring every year without you
America still will be here without you
There’ll be fruit on the tree
And a shore by the sea
There’ll be southern sweet tea
Without you
Art and music will thrive without you
Somehow Keats will survive without you
And there still will be rain
On that plain down in Spain
Even that will remain
Without you
I can do
Without you
They can still rule the land without you
Mount Rushmore will stand without you
And without much ado
We can all muddle through
Without you
Without your pulling it, the tide comes in
Without your twirling it, the Earth can spin
Without your pushing them, the clouds roll by
If they can do without you, ducky, so can I
I shall not feel alone without you
I can stand on my own without you
So go back in your shell
I can do bloody well
Without you
Very nice!
I was hoping yesterday we would have heard how many people and agencies were cut. Guess we are going to have to wait a while.
This is also why it seems like Democrats stick together, and Republicans split. Democrats are chasing a common goal, a collective goal, power. Republicans are chasing a commonality, yes, but an individual goal, money, their wealth. – Sundance
This explains the dozen texts I get every day from Republicans asking for money! It doesn’t matter that I block and delete them there seems to be an endless stream of new phone numbers requesting a donation!!! So annoying!!!
It borders on harassment. There is an internet program that politicians and seekers of donations can access which has your information. Why? I don’t know how I got on it. If you can find it, delete it. I haven’t found it yet. AVAST tells me it’s there but won’t help me find it.
Question: If you paid the Uni-party Republicans boat loads of money (to do the right thing), would they do the right thing for the country???
I mean if all they are after is money… bribe them to do the right thing… easy solution.
Remember the liberals (leftists) have the best ideas but they don’t work.
Day 3 with ZERO pink slips issued. Russ Vought has been completely neutered and I would not be surprised if he resigns. Elections DO NOT have consequences when it comes to shrinking government.
PT and others are simply using bully/intimidation tactics. Whether or not they follow through is another story.
Russ is eliminating Biden’s funding for pork projects in blue states. He did some in NY, then CA, and now IL
I’d like to see layoffs, too, but I’d also like to see all the Biden years’ pork to Dems gone, too. Going through the federal budget with a red pencil is probably quicker than going through personnel lists, although I’d hope that Trump’s administration got a head start on who is “non-essential” before the shut down.
I expect layoffs will come once Russ has cut off the Dems’ money supply.
I guess we’re just doomed then, eh?
/s
Patience, grasshopper.
With Democrat elected officials, it’s power/ideology and then money.
With Republican elected officials, it’s money and a little way down the road, power.
Either way, both sides of the aisle in the halls of power are not working on anyone’s behalf but their own.
I’ve been saying this for years.
I am grateful that Sundance has spelled it out.
Both sides of the aisle are out for themselves, but for different reasons.
I wonder why the name “Lindsey Graham” kept reverberating within my mind while reading this article?
