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

the schumrer shutdown continues. no to ACA subsidies. my health insu premiums way up on last year or two to pay for others. not including the illegals they want to fund with fungible money.
Don’t forget the zerocare was just a step toward full on socialist medicine. Unaffordability was a long term feature.
As was the State Control over, say, Ivermectin…
Anyone else tired of the FDA keeping treatments and meds, that other countries have access to, from our reach.
So many things PT and Congress should be doing to get rid of all the rules and regulations that would improve our lives 100%. Instead the focus is on Israel, Ukraine. And I have to say I am sorely disappointed in PT not following through with his policy promises. Where is the cheaper gas? Utility bills? Food? Where is the criminal accountability? Where are Mass deportations? H1B and other insane VISAS? COVID vaccine promotion instead of criminal investigations WTH? Instead we are getting Ballrooms and arch statues? DC remake? Pams 20+ PT directives and still counting….PT declares Economy Booming ,OK well alrighty then. PT are you tapping us along?
Call me what you want but I know others have had these same thoughts….Someone make it make sense cause this is just slap ass crazy.
Effff that Kenyan! sideways!!!!!!
Cuck Schmuck Chuck also funded Hamas terrorists. I thought Bibi would have wanted to extradite him to face charges or at least punch him out, but strangely nothing. You would think a real anti-semite like Schumer would be driven out of politics like a whole bunch of American congressional members were in the great expose of the American Political Hegelian Dialectic theater “They Dare To Speak Out” book.
That pic might sum it up better than any other meme I’ve seen CK. The Schmuck pic if poi-fict. 😉
Top of the morning to you friend Harrison. You’ve been doing excellent work, I’ve been reading your posts mate.
Blessings my friend. Hope you’ve been enjoying the wonderful mornings this time of year brings even more! (rain for the more coastal regions aside – but a nice rain is a blessing in and of itself.)
“They dare to speak out” -book by Paul Findley -Congressman from Illinois for 22 years….highly recommended for CTH commenters.
It’s a must read if you want to understand the Hegelian Dialectic Uniparty political circus here.
SHOCK MOMENT: President Trump Says Chuck Schumer Is No Longer Jewish: ‘He’s A Palestinian’
He funded Hamas terrorists while shielding foreign UK agent provocateurs at Frankfort School-Columbia U. I guess since he is part of the Hegelian Dialectic his anti-semitism is approved. The Muslim lobby CAIR loves him as much as AIPAC & Bibi does.
Just another Charmin!
To be fair, Schumer and American workers & veterans are not in a relationship. They divorced in 2024.
We ‘divorced’ much longer ago than that!
Morning Chris,
One of the last Blue Dog Democrats Senator Jim Webb called it at one of the DNC Primaries in 2016. He stated the Democrats no longer represented the American working men & women. He also shocked the DNC and its zombies when he said that (unconstitutional) Affirmative Action was for (Heritage) American Black people not immigrants and their descendants, which ended up being weaponized against White & Black Americans in favor of Immigrants which was never the intent of the law to begin with. He left the party soon after and I consider him to be the amongst the last along with Kucinich of the Blue Dog Democrats.
The Blue Dog Democrat are now PDJT-MAGA Republicans.
It seems Sen. Fetterman may have a tinge of Blue Dog in him.
Senator Fetterman speaks the conservative language which is unusual as democrats vote and talk as a block…bill
Good morning, Professor Colkitto!
There was a point in my life when I was an anti-war ‘independent’ liberal.
While I understand the need to exercise power in a world of realpolitik, President Trump’s consistent commitment to peacemaking was one of the reasons I converted to MAGA.
Nothing “fair” about Charmin! Just plain old azzwipe!
Sorry but your complaint should be with congress putting up with the corrupt insurance industry and fixing healthcare as a whole….I do not want to see anyone lose their healthcare…as bad as it is….it would have some horrendous results in some cases. Thats like saying Medicare and Medicaid which are also subsidized by current tax collection should cease because it makes your premiums high.
Your Premiums are high because the Insurance companies, hospitals are ripping us off. Insurance premiums are not the only example where congress has put the cost back onto the taxpayer in order to let the healthcare industry or other big corporations continue with their insane profits. Enough is Enough with all this damn taxation when we are struggling to put food on the table.
God bless this man!

The Game Plan
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2
“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more.
Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit.
A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Unseen1 @unseen1_unseen
Here is the game plan that the forces against Trump will be using for the foreseeable future.
They will attempt to get you to make the perfect the enemy of the good.
Be it the freedom clowns and spending, the immigration hawks with H1B visas, the peace doves with timing, the cultural warriors with total bans of DEI/CRT, the neocons with war fighting, or the swamp dwellers with draining the swamp.
All of them will attempt to get you to believe on whatever issue is the issue of the day that it doesn’t go far enough or do enough. They will try to make you think that some sub issue of that issue is more important and should be handled first, that since the issue hasn’t been handled yet it won’t be, that we can’t do more than one thing, that so and so is a plant to stop the draining of the swamp, or that because it wasn’t 100% Trump lied. On every single issue, one or more groups will attempt this strategy.
You can’t allow them that power over you. If Trump secures the border and deports 2 million, don’t allow them to reduce that good by them saying well he didn’t deport 2.5 million, so he failed or lied.
You can’t allow them to use the perfect to void out the good in the coming months.
They will try. They already have with the CR and the H1b visa debates. It works, that is why they use it. You have to keep it in the front of your head on everything about to occur that half a loaf or hopefully in most cases 7/8ths a loaf is better than no loaf.
Do not allow them to gaslight you into thinking the good is the enemy of the perfect.
In the real world, most things are never perfect, but if we try real hard, we can get plenty of good accomplished in the coming 4 years.
The purpose and goals of President Trump are plainly visible by his actions and consistent: He is for the benefit first of the common PEOPLE of this country, then of the PEOPLE in the rest of the world. It is validating, even to our battered conservative skepticism.
The methods of his leadership are amazing. I still don’t get HOW he does it, or HOW he is able to get so much momentum going, but every day the momentum is growing. Everyone and every organization has their eyes opened every day — just by watching him. Even those who hate him, are biased against him, and want to see him gone — cannot ignore him. He lives rent free in their head, and they come around to seeing the universal principles by which he is operating. He hammers actions based on truth from one direction, then another, and they cannot mount an organized opposition against him.
President Trump is transparent in his words and actions. He is consistent in what he says, what he does, and what he asks/demands of others. His promises are bold and he keeps them like no other president has. He is making massive, nearly overnight changes, not only in our country, but in the world. It is amazing that he is able to accomplish so much when there are so many snakes in the grass. This term, he is weeding them out faster. No U.S. president has ever faced so much organized resistance and treason than President Trump
He has chosen to use his intellect and every skill he has to do what is right. He has tremendous faith that he can make a difference in this world. He has a confidence and courage such that he doesn’t care what others think, yet a humility to know he has to do it with the help of like minded people. Those people are the “common” people, and he ridicules those who think they are not common.
He believes people are basically good. He believes that God is real. He believes that healthy people are happy people, and they need to be able to create wealth freely for their labor, and have the freedom to spend their money on what is good for them.
He believes the United States, with its Constitutional Republic, is the best environment in the world to enable and give opportunity for people to be happy and prosperous.
He believes that we can be a light for the world, but we must demand that the rest of the world respect us and our right to life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness.
He believes the enemy of our country are the stupid, greedy American people who have been selfishly taking advantage of this country; who betrayed the trust and obedience of its people; and who diverted the people’s wealth for their own selfish gain, at the expense of the principles of this country. He’s not going to allow that anymore.
He has cultivated and focused the family of MAGA. Identifying those people whose goodness, industriousness, trust, and obedience have been taken advantage of and abused. He has opened our eyes to this abuse, and the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the healthy distrust of government and men with too much power held by our founders. He has recultivated the desire to reclaim our freedoms and rights, and is empowering us with a hope and pathway to reclaim our spiritual and economic freedom.
He wants the US to be a light of hope on the hill for all people. He will negotiate win/win agreements with those nations and countries who respect us; who respect the principles and intent of our Constitution. If you do not respect us, however, we are not going to let you take advantage of our goodness, or share in our wealth at our expense. If you as a nation are treating your people badly, you are going to be treated less favorably by us, until you show that you value your people as much as we value ours.
He is convincing those who are very wealthy (most of whom truly earned their money), that the best economic soil in which to build wealth is in a constitutional republic, which supports the ability of the common man to earn wealth in proportion to his efforts. The economic engine of the United States is the human spirit freed to enjoy the fruits of honest labor, and that engine has more natural and raw horsepower than any other governed economy.
The Trump Train seems to be remarkably aligned with universal principles of Truth, which reflect the will and design of our Creator, and are the best standard by which we should live. These same principles were what our country’s founders used to declare independence, and framed into the Constitution of this nation.
Our founders believed that a nation should preserve the right and freedom of an individual to seek, understand, and live by God’s principles. They believed that free individuals working together in humility would make a stronger nation than a government which dictates its will on the people. President Trump professes and seeks to lead and restore this nation back to these same principles.
These principles resonate deeply within all human beings, down to our DNA in every cell, in our spirits, and produce fruit that “miraculously” multiplies. Because we follow universal principles, we see the snowballing acceleration of momentum on day 266 of the 2nd term of this very stable genius in the history of the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2025.
Where is the National Strategic Emergency Plan for (not rare) Rare Earth Materials?
China’s Blackmail – which they may back away from – is the perfect impetus to launch an Emergency, fast-track, coordinated national plan.
China controls approximately 70% of these key materials. Bring in Peter Navarro, industry and energy experts, and put together a MANHATTAN PROJECT for these critical materials.
Immediate To Do List:
– POTUS address from the Oval Office
– Emergency Declaration to develop rare earth materials here – excavation and processing ‘AT SCALE’
– Put ‘Czars’ reporting to Trump to speed the process, EPA, etc.
– Identify existing key deposits – we have vast deposits all over our nation, but places like California would bog down construction (the Salton Sea has massive key deposits)** as well as needed energy production.
– All-hands-on-deck Congressional backing (or will Dems sabatogue?)
– Executive Orders?
– Federal dollars where appropriate where projects can be fast tracked; possibly even where projects can run two or three shifts daily
– Do we need Federal dollars to expand the Supply Chain for the required industrial equipment?
– Align local trade schools for technical training
– Can we provide Visas for skilled mechanical and industrial workers from Germany who are under 40 years old?
– Solicit input from Elon Musk
– Could North Korea fill part of the gap, or will China block them? Soybeans for minerals???
– Could Greenland and or Russia also be partners?
– If China backs off, they will surely do it again; they exposed their hand
** Salton Sea deposits
AI Overview: “The Salton Sea has massive deposits of lithium, sometimes called “white gold,” trapped in its geothermal brine. This is considered a revolutionary discovery for the battery industry and could make the United States a leader in lithium production, potentially achieving self-sufficiency. Other minerals like nickel, boron, and rare earth elements are also present”
awesome post and all
needed. I knew about salton sea. yes china will do it again and again. their students need to be re-homed right now back to china.
Excellent point. We di we educate tens if thousands if Chinese undergraduate and graduate students, primarily in the hard sciences, mathematics, and computer science?
Year after year Chinese nationals are caught stealing IP, software, key research. Part of their culture is cheating, not innovation. Cheating, copying.
I’ve also read assertions that Chinese nationals are required to take an oath to the CCP before they come to the US for studies.
Many university campuses, top Ivy League schools, and top tech schools are 35-45% Chinese nationals! Why? They take studies seriously, and they pay DOUBLE THE TUITION for “out of state fees”. So it’s a money grab.
Dianne Feinstein had a Chinese spy as a driver fir 20 years. Eric Swalwell has an affair with Fang Fang, a Chinese national. GOPs McConnell owns a shipping business based in… China.
China also set up “Confucius Institutes” at top American universities!!??
How stupid are we?
Take studies seriously? Seriously?? They are the biggest cheaters!
Shhhhhhh, why ruin a good fantasy?
Both are true. Chinese students are taking physics, computer science, math, engineering, and American students are often taking sociology, criminal justice, gender studies, etc.
Personally, I’d rather enroll an American students with a 3.9 GPA than a foreign national with 4.5 GPA.
Very.
Money talks and patriotism walks.
Salton Sea is putrid and disgusting.
I am a lifelong miner in the 1930 the US Corp of engineers drilled out national we know where everything is. Deposits Grade location approx strip ratio ect is already finished. No money would be needed guaranteed permitting would definately be needed ridding the environmental impact study and the 10 – 50 year wait times. We have everything needed to be self sufficient. Roads exist to many high yield zones. The Ambler road in Alaska out near Nome holds many valuable. Rock Creek is sitting right there 777 992 14 G blast drills D-10 an entire ball mill 3 sag mills are built we couldn’t get the state to release the water permit under Drill Baby Drill Gov. 360 million spent we were sent home. Thats another can of worms well deal with later but it is all sitting there 3 weeks 10 men I could have all the equipment running. 20 days above 30 F We could open the mill. The native population in the area are trained miners keep the whiskey away. AI is only going to give you what it was told to so be careful.
Chris Wright the leader of Liberty Oilfield services is head of dept of energy helping and is a winner all the way around.
There is lotsa willing folks to do the job but were getting older to teach the younger guys how its done.
The Rockerfellers have reserved US minerals for themselves thru CONgress so that is challenging. I could go on and on been in the game for 48 years.
Almost impossible to do much of anything without a severe makeover of current permitting processes.
Not only that oil and gas is abundant if allowed sweet crude will run a modern diesel engine. I’ve ran it in my 2007 Kenworth in fact it runs excellent the Cetane is much higher than pump gas giving more power running at lower temps lubrisity is also excellent.
WE CAN DO THIS IF ALLOWED.
Good to hear we’re ready to go!
Yeah, may we can leave the German labor right were it is after all.
This post needs to be sent to many sources … hope someone sees it and acts.
SMH
This is vital for the USA’s revival and to lead the way.
Like most mischief in this country scratch the surface and you’ll find the Rockefeller’s and their wicked gang.
👍
You are another example of our Great American Heritage! From coal to gold to oil to LNG you guys have kept America
going.
Really enjoyed reading your post.
Thank you!
this is a fun website to check in on now and then as it shows the permits that are being fast-tracked and has a link for mining companies to submit their project for fast-tracking permits:
https://www.permitting.gov/
Mining is the most intensive land use and extremely difficult to get permits. In America we have groups who call themselves “environmentalists” that try to stop all natural resource extraction. These “environmentalists” help foreign countries to remove our independence…bill
Find a way and pass it on!!
Lutnick blew-up the agreement with China…
“U.S. negotiators under Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick tried to play hardball. In late September, during the talks, they imposed further restrictions on China:
On September 29, 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) released a long-anticipated interim final rule (IFR) that will result in the most dramatic expansion of U.S. export control regulations in years. The IFR, “Expansion of End-User Controls To Cover Affiliates of Certain Listed Entities,” extends export restrictions to any company owned 50% or more, directly or indirectly, by any of the thousands of entities already designated on several Commerce and Treasury Department lists.
The IFR would also impose a new duty on exporters to investigate the ownership of an end user where there is reason to believe a designated entity holds a minority stake, or is affiliated with, the end user, subject to a strict liability standard for violations.
The new measures would severely restrict any export of high tech goods to China.
China responded in kind”
It is good form when using a quote, to include the source, particularly when using such an extended quote. It also has the potential to enhance your credibility, if that is possible.
CCP admirer much?
Oh look, AI is back.
Joshua 8
18 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Hold out toward Ai the javelin that is in your hand, for into your hand I will deliver the city.” So Joshua held out toward the city the javelin that was in his hand. 19 As soon as he did this, the men in the ambush rose quickly from their position and rushed forward. They entered the city and captured it and quickly set it on fire.
20 The men of Ai looked back and saw the smoke of the city rising up into the sky, but they had no chance to escape in any direction; the Israelites who had been fleeing toward the wilderness had turned back against their pursuers. 21 For when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city and that smoke was going up from it, they turned around and attacked the men of Ai. 22 Those in the ambush also came out of the city against them, so that they were caught in the middle, with Israelites on both sides. Israel cut them down, leaving them neither survivors nor fugitives. 23 But they took the king of Ai alive and brought him to Joshua.
24 When Israel had finished killing all the men of Ai in the fields and in the wilderness where they had chased them, and when every one of them had been put to the sword, all the Israelites returned to Ai and killed those who were in it. 25 Twelve thousand men and women fell that day—all the people of Ai. 26 For Joshua did not draw back the hand that held out his javelin until he had destroyed[a] all who lived in Ai. 27 But Israel did carry off for themselves the livestock and plunder of this city, as the Lord had instructed Joshua.
Good is the computing of the Lord!
And repeating what was already blown apart and shown to be utter malarkey…
Back again I see. It’s Sunday. How about you take the day off.

Very Interesting. Chatgpt can do some interesting stuff. I just ask it to show and fetch my last 30 treehouse comments. Return was not bad. Not sure what the other AI’s are out there, but it would be good to do a comparison with them. Would like to find a way to see if something is AI generated too. Maybe AI can tell me.
Nice — I pulled together the most recent 30 MR52 comments I could find on The Conservative Treehouse and listed them (newest → older). Each item shows the post title, the comment date/time (as displayed on the site), a short excerpt, and a citation to the page where the comment appears so you can open it yourself.

“October 2nd, 2025 — Presidential Politics (Day 256)” — Oct 2, 2025 12:22 pm — short reply: “CIA”. The Last Refuge
Never thought to use AI to look at posts – but might be interesting to look at things like Seashell Susies…
For myself, simply remember conversations, approximate day, and use the “find on page” feature of the browser 😉
Sum Ting Wong!
No, Lutnick did NOT blow up the agreement. CHINA did. They imposed strict export controls for the rare earths for the ENTIRE WORLD. Thus, NOT a retaliation for anything we did.
I also provided you with a Congressional Committee Report that specifically talked about the controls needed on our tech with regard to China… any imposition of controls implemented per your post were done with Congress.
We had this discussion yesterday.
So, since you reposted it, I can only assume that you do not like Lutnick and want to disparage him.
In case you were not aware, China is trying to rule the world – they have been working on this for a very long time.
China’s rare-earth export ban came two weeks after Lutnick blew-up the July London Agreement with Sec Bessent.
Check the dates!
Can you read? They didn’t impose the export ban on the USA…. it is on the entire world. It is not in retaliation for anything. This is part of China’s plan to become the POWER in the world. You can expect even more aggression from China soon.
And Lutnick did NOT blow up the deal.
You lost me at providing visas for skilled mechanical and industrial workers from Germany. Pound Salt. We have plenty available here, they just aren’t be right skin color for corporate overlords. Go ahead,ask me how I know.
You know the “A” in AI stands for artificial right?
Corporate America and others claiming we lack some skilled workers. If not, great.
Southern California used to be loaded with machinists, welders, aircraft mechanics. We also once had a nuclear power industry (we need to focus on 2-3 prototypes, not a half dozen we never use or replicate. Skills, parts, plans don’t transfer when every version is a one-off.) Most moved or passed on. Refineries closing, not even sure if SoCal has the lone steel mill operating.
We did the skilled workers from Germany both before & after WW2.
The ones that came before worked very hard & lit up our manufacturing. The ones that came after were… different. Part of the reich.
Let’s not see what the 3rd wave would look like in person. Just look at what happened to their nation after “reunification.”
Would be a shame if the army corp. of engineers were to mine that and sell to other countries.
Would also be a shame if they drilled in Wyoming where’s there’s a vast amount of natural gas. They could pipe it to citizens at a very discounted price
Right now businesses in Wyoming are too busy mining coal and sending it to Chyna by the boatload via Canada.
🧯🚒🧑🚒 Here ya go. Some of your hair is still smoldering.
Lol
He never stops.
Thank you Harrison.
Blessing Sherry. Apologies for being a bit late.
I left you a message following the church picture yesterday. I was real late so just wondering if you saw it.
Yes Dixie, saw it late last night and responded to it. Hope you’re day is a great one!
ps. Hopefully you don’t totally leave CTH 🙂
The comments at CTH are valuable so I will continue to check them out..especially yours and those editorials of Sundance. I have little to say so won’t bother.
Praying.
Amen
Amen!
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
Amen.
Most interesting of the day!
First..who was the “career lawyer “ that the
new CIA Deputy Director, Michael Ellis replaced?
It may be very relevant to the story?
A piece of the puzzle 🧩 I can’t find a name!!
Interesting articles…..

Jesse Kelly Warns of Communist Ideology Infiltrating and Taking Over American Churches (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit | by David Greyson
AI who is supposed to be trained on thousands of articles says:
Unnamed Career Lawyer (Acting): This individual served as the acting General Counsel from January 2025 until being abruptly demoted by Deputy Director Michael Ellis in October 2025. Their name was not made public in news reports.
How does a lawyer work in the highest position in the country for 10 months, and not have a single court filing to their name? Did this person even do any work all year?
Yes. He worked at Sedition, Mutiny & Treesun, Attorneys vs Law.
The video gets really fired up about about 10:30, as Senator Schmitt :shows who have been the really violent extremist. Go ahead and fact check for he is right on.
“In a powerful Senate hearing exchange, Senator Eric Schmitt addresses the FBI Director following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Schmitt condemns political violence but argues it is overwhelmingly driven by left-wing extremism. He cites polling data, past incidents, and media behavior to call for honesty about the real sources of political violence in America. Schmitt urges the FBI and the public to confront this ideological threat and defend free speech as a core American value.”
Senator Schmitt: “Stop Pretending — Political Violence Is Not a Both Sides Issue”
Violence has always been a leftist means to an end. Always. Brown Shirts in Germany. Bolsheviks in Russia. Jacobins in France. Kuomintang in Taiwan. The KKK in the South. Antifa, now – here and in the EU.
you forget…black shirts in the Germany…ANTIFA..Keynote
China’s Material Squeeze Exposes U.S. Industrial Fragility – Warrick Powell
When Washington declared an economic war on China’s technology ascent, it assumed it held the upper hand. Tariffs, export bans, entity lists and chip sanctions were meant to isolate Beijing, choke its access to critical inputs, strangle its technological development and protect American primacy. Yet with remarkable precision, Beijing has now demonstrated that the United States is the one more deeply entangled in – and dependent upon – China’s command of critical material supply chains.
China’s latest round of export controls on lithium batteries, graphite anode materials, and rare earth technologies amounts to the most significant intensification yet in the global race for material sovereignty. The measures are framed in terms of “national security,” and necessities to meet China’s obligations to not accelerate arms proliferation. At the same time, the strategic timing and scope make clear their geopolitical intent: to again expose the material vulnerability of a country that has worked tirelessly to encircle, contain and repress China, but which itself cannot easily reconstitute its own productive base.
The new Chinese restrictions announced on 9 October extend beyond commodities to the technological processes required to make them useful.
In terms of graphite anode materials and lithium batteries, China will now require export permits for synthetic graphite and natural graphite materials used in the production of lithium-ion battery anodes. The restrictions also cover advanced production processes, including granulation, continuous graphitisation, and liquid-phase coating. These are all key technologies that determine battery performance and durability. These technologies are essential for electric vehicles, consumer electronics and grid-scale energy storage systems. China currently accounts for over 90% of the world’s graphite anode production and dominates every stage of the lithium battery value chain.
As for rare earth-related technologies China has added a sweeping range of rare earth technologies to its export control list, including those involved in mining, smelting, separation, magnetic material manufacturing, and secondary resource recycling. These underpin the manufacture of permanent magnets used in wind turbines, electric motors, guided missile systems, fighter jets, satellite components and semiconductors. China refines nearly 90% of global rare earth oxides and produces the vast majority of neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnets used in high-performance electronics.
Together, these measures strike at the heart of the clean energy, defence, and semiconductor industries. In other words, the very sectors the U.S. has spent billions trying to re-shore through the Inflation Reduction Act and CHIPS Act under the Biden Administration, and which are central to the Trump Administration’s vision for America’s techno-military future.
The material constraints are impossible to downplay. The U.S. simply does not have the capacity, time or industrial ecosystem to replace what China supplies within a period of time that will be meaningful.
According to the Pentagon, over 78% of U.S. military systems rely on materials sourced directly or indirectly from China. Rare earths are used in everything from jet engines and precision-guided munitions to radar systems and nuclear submarine components. A disruption in Chinese supply chains would delay weapons production and maintenance schedules. The U.S. has some rare earth deposits but lacks refining and metallurgical expertise; ironically, these were offshored to China decades ago. Rebuilding domestic refining capacity could take 5–10 years and cost billions, even before environmental approvals.
Washington tried to isolate Beijing. In doing so, it isolated itself. Presidents Trump and Xi are slated to meet on the sidelines of APEC in South Korea later in October. That will be a very interesting conversation, indeed.

More AI driven drivel. Please stop with the CCP / Google / Wikipedia sourced garbage.
It’s not AI drivel! You can see that clearly with the author and the link. Powell’s a mining expert!
What’s the point of questioning everything wrong from the Administration on Russia and turning a blind-eye when the nonsense is directed at China?
Go back to Chyna and spew your propaganda…

Australian!
Home is where the heart is…
Hint: Never(!) tell the United States of America what it “can’t” do.
The preceding message has been approved by the Chairman.
“Tinky Winky! Dipsy! La La! Po!”
We have the materials in abundance… we will now refine them and China can go suck lemons.
The error of false pride!
So, we can ban our semiconductors and technology to China but they can’t ban their rare-earth exports to the United States? That’s your conclusion.
What do we do for the next ten years while we are digging mines in Utah looking for rare-earth minerals?
LOL!!!
There’s nothing false about what she said – there is a quite significant quantity of rare earth ore that has been shipped to Chyna for processing for quite some time. The ore is ALREADY being produced by in the USA. The same holds for Australia.
What is this “our semiconductors” of which you speak? You aren’t American, you profess to be “Australian”, but speak as if a Chinese. As far as “banning”, Chyna’s communist crazies already banned the use of American AI chips as previously pointed out to you, as well as have attacked our companies in their kangaroo courts as already pointed out to you.

BOOM. The Great Reclamation has begun. The Supreme Court just restored Trump’s constitutional power to remove rogue commissioners from federal agencies. For the first time in ninety years, the President can clean house. The walls of bureaucratic tyranny are cracking.
Since 1935, the presidency has been a hostage. A hidden ruling called Humphrey’s Executor v. United States created a shield around unelected bureaucrats buried inside so-called independent agencies. They could not be fired. Not by Congress. Not by the people. Not even by the Commander in Chief. These were the Deep State’s castles inside the government. Protected. Untouchable. Writing rules with the power of law while answering to no one. For decades, they dictated policy, destroyed accountability, and made every president a figurehead in his own house.
That ended this week.
In a ruling few expected but history will never forget, the Supreme Court confirmed that President Trump has full constitutional authority to remove Democratic commissioners Mary Boyle, Richard Trumka Jr, and Alexander Hoehn-Saric from the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The Court reminded the nation that executive power belongs to the President alone. Not to agencies. Not to boards. Not to faceless lawyers.
The 6-3 decision has detonated the foundation of bureaucratic immunity. Trump can now terminate any commissioner who obstructs reform, dismantle ideological mandates, and reclaim executive control over agencies that have operated like private empires. The ruling sets a precedent that can sweep through every corner of the federal maze — FTC, SEC, NLRB, CDC, FDA, DOE. Hundreds of unelected operators who hid behind the term “independent” are now exposed.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission is only the beginning. Nearly 700 positions across Washington fall under the same model. With this judgment, Trump holds the legal weapon he was denied in his first term. The sword is back in his hands.
Inside the Deep State, panic has already begun. For decades, they didn’t need to win elections. They only needed to control who stayed behind. By embedding loyal operatives inside untouchable posts, they guaranteed their agenda survived every presidency. They wrote laws under the cover of regulation. They censored industries through “safety standards.” They shifted policy without ever standing for a vote. That structure is now collapsing.
This decision is not about staffing. It’s about sovereignty. The hidden coup that began ninety years ago has been reversed. The unelected state no longer outranks the elected one. The legal scaffolding that protected the regime is being dismantled piece by piece.
That is why the media is silent. They understand what this means. If Trump uses this authority — and he will — the entire architecture of shadow governance will fall. Agencies that weaponized policy for ideology will be stripped of power. Mandates will be rescinded. Political infiltrators will be removed. The Deep State’s invisible army is finally within reach.
Trump’s second term begins now, with the power he was denied in 2016. The presidency is no longer a cage. It is a command post. He can purge the administrative state, rebuild federal institutions that answer to the people, and restore a government that serves its citizens instead of its masters.
This is The Great Reclamation. The end of ninety years of executive humiliation. The day the balance returns. The Deep State buried the presidency under red tape and called it democracy. But the chains have been cut. And Trump now holds the axe.
Fire EVERYONE. Every last useless PARASITE.
Wait, all you will see and hear from the liberal propagandist media is hand wringing and crying how the government is no longer working and how thousands or millions will die because of mean old Donald Trump.
In reality almost none of them will be missed and if a few are Trump can have new workers hired that aren’t liberal idealogs but actual hard workers.
I can’t wait to hear it.
All of the MSM has cut back on their employees that do actual, investigative “journalism”.
They didn’t need them. They got their marching orders at 4 AM from the early morning
“This is what we want you to say” drop. The fact(s) that 1. They were already ideologically
aligned with what they were being told to say. 2. They could do, literally, nothing other then
copying and pasting what was sent to them.
The person(s) behind the 4 am dump, down the chain were the inbedded, perpetual department
employees. These were the ones that the ones that sent out the 4 AM dump could depend on.
Any money source, narrative threat that might arise, could be handled like this. The money is
being threatened in this department. Call up the perpetual inbed in that department, get a leak.
Save you the bother of actually doing any leg work, and you have something to print.
So…. I’ll watch and see if my hypothesis is correct. Because that’s, currently, what the proceeding
statements are.
It’ll take some time to see if my suspician is correct. If we quit hearing “According to” or “Sources
say”, or “A concerned person with knowledge about” then we know that the leaks have been
plugged.
That’s what all the screaming from the MSM is about , IMO. They know that their sources are
going by by, and they will actually (gasp) have to do some actual work.
ASAP.
This ^ needs a lot more light.
This is good news, and hopefully true. What is your source?

The Schumer Shutdown shows the mental decline of Democrat leaders. Who in their right mind sits in the shambles of past spending debacles and pretends to claim the upper hand in knowing how to budget IMAGINARY MONEY. We have no money to spend on more goverment programs. More cutting is what is needed. Democrats spend tax dollars like it’s Monopoly money.
And the majority of Republicans have helped them do that for decades. Only President Trump has tried to change that. Trump has also changed the GOP but as of yet he has not totally defeated the old guard establishment Republicans. Even if Mitch is gone we can already see Thune isn’t fully Trump’s ally.
Exactly. Let’s not pretend Rs have done anything but exacerbate the problem.
Thune is ChiCom Mitch’s doppelgänger.

Everyone’s favorite institution of ‘higher’ education, takes another few ironic dings to its brand ‘Veritas’, this time with a unanimous ruling from the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. Thank you, the Baron at Gates of Vienna for this share:
https://thepostmillennial.com/massachusetts-court-rules-harvard-can-be-sued-over-ex-morgue-manager-selling-body-parts
Another share via Gates of Vienna. I do recall seeing this cartoon posted earlier in the week, though was not aware of the context. This is truly appalling and NOT an example of ‘free speech”, rather an editorial cartoonist in Utah, Pat Bagley, inciting violence against elected officials.
As the Baron describes it, “the cartoon depicted the congressmen in a “wanted” poster with red around each lawmaker’s neck. In September, Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, was killed in an assassination in Utah, in which he was shot in the neck.“
https://thepostmillennial.com/salt-lake-trib-runs-hole-in-the-head-comic-suggesting-a-call-for-violence-against-utah-gop-lawmakers
If there is anyone in the Department of Justice reading this forum, when will you charge Pat Bagley with a direct incitement to murder of elected officials?
Playing politics at the expense of free speech? I think it’s reprehensible messaging, but asking the government to enforce speech as violence criminally makes no sense to me. Repercussions should come from advertisers and readers.
You think incitement to murder is free speech? I do not.
I do agree advertisers can take action.
Incitement? Verifiable? It’s BS. Individuals making stupid decisions based on articles they might have read isn’t the fault of the writer.
In my mind, many of these bad actors have been curated by a host of shoddy people and the writers are the least culpable.
Let’s agree to disagree, ok?
A better question would be:
Why do we have people, bureaucrats, that have such persistently cold and violent hearts?

Verified. I spoke to Operations at PBI Airport, they have been instructed by the State of FL to be in compliance with SB56 to not allow aircrafts ‘Equipped with Weather Modification or Geoengineering equipment’ to be flown in or out of PBI, DAB, MCO, ORL & SFB.
The date is open ended. Thank you @GovRonDeSantis @IleanaGarciaUSA @AGJamesUthmeier Florida Will Lead The Way!!
Source: National Airspace System Status. What this means is PBI is closed to weather modification aviation and open to all other forms of legal Aircrafts.
Other Florida airports with similar restrictions include: : Flight information from October 2025 shows a restriction for “GEO ENGINEERING AND WX MODIFICATION AIRCRAFT,” with some exceptions requiring prior permission.
Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB) : Airport officials confirmed they are complying with the new state law, which requires airports to report any such aircraft.Orlando International Airport (MCO) : Both have also indicated they will comply with the new reporting requirements.Orlando Executive Airport (ORL)andOrlando Sanford International Airport (SFB) Starting October 1, 2025, operators of all public-use airports in Florida are required to file monthly reports with the Florida Department of Transportation detailing the presence of any aircraft equipped for weather modification

Airport is open.

Weather modification has a well-documented history. It’s amazing that so many people think it’s not real and will not educate themselves.
op popeye
Well documented and yet, here in the “people’s Republic of Illinois”, it is vehemently denied and yet, they are on a schedule…routinely and rain or clouds often follow within 36-48 hours.
Something has ‘gone wrong’ this year…its been very dry in most of the state, so dry that there were weather notifications, for the high risk of wildfires….and little rain overall.
Well ldocumented and one can see it with their own eyes…i have often counted well over 15 jet trails in one area of sky.
That many, are NOT commercial jets.
Can confirm the same, over in beautiful Tennessee. Not as much as back in the spring/early summer however.

Journalist Nick Shirley tells Donald Trump he has personally been on the ground for Antifa protests in America and overseas in the UK – He’s seen the exact same protest signs used in America as overseas – He has physically seen the exact same protesters getting off busses in multiple states – He has personally seen the same protesters in the crowd at different protests in multiple states
“There’s nothing organic about what they are doing here in the United States. I’ve watched people be bussed in from states. I’ve watched the same leading lady at a protest in Atlanta, be bussed to the protest in DC, and then in New York City. There’s nothing that is honest about what they are doing. And they have signs, I’ve seen the same signs here in DC and in London as well. It’s a big organization and corporation that they’re running.”

One of the comments of note.
Every time I tell someone I’m from Portland, I feel like a refugee.
“T’was once a great city. Lots of food carts. Public transportation was great. As long as you avoided 2nd and Burnside, you wouldn’t smell homeless people.
And then the communists arrived, all in black except for the hair, which shone neon. We should have known right from the start that they didn’t have jobs, but we weren’t paying close enough attention. We were comfortable.
We were so used to the smell of the occasional homeless person, we didn’t think to question the smell of communists. It was a grave mistake.” – diary of a housewife, circa 2021
Portland has been a breeding ground for communists for a long time. The didn’t just “arrive.”
Look up Reed College. Or Portland State University.
I lived there in the late ‘60s-early ‘70s. Went to high school there.
I saw the antiwar protests at both the aforementioned colleges. Radicalism seems to flourish in Portland.
There were a lot of anti-war protests across the nation during that period of time. There are a number of communist hot-beds in the west, including statues to Lenin.
However, there is quite a difference between predominately campus protests by “hippies” and what’s going on in the streets of that city on a daily basis now involving antifa.

Gavin Newsom has a large stack of bills ready to be signed right before he leaves office. They are all extremely destructive “Here’s what you need to prepare yourself for”
– SB 177 would get around the First Amendment’s editorial discretion and Section 230 to slap million dollar pop fines on platforms for content the state would determine to be inciting. This bill ends Free Speech
– AB 495 completely unnecessary bill that helps no one but puts all children in danger by allowing just about anybody to fill out a caregiver authorization affidavit and come snatch a kid from school
– SB 59 seals sex marker changes for minors and adults, fining anyone revealing those records, even a parent who’s against it
– AB 727 requires Trevor Project number on every student’s ID and allows unmonitored access to chat rooms with adult themes
– AB 1487 that would expand the transgender variant and intersex wellness reentry fund to the tune of $14 million, basically throwing more money at programs supporting transgender, gender variant and intersex people who’ve been in prison
– SB 497 protecting those who help kids cut off reproductive body parts or sterilize them. It blocks out of state subpoenas and tracking of the number of females being placed on testosterone
– AB 82 further expands address confidentiality to gender affirming doctors. Publishing info about them will land you in court, which violates the freedom of press and speech. It would even protect doctors violate their home state laws
– 1084 will expedite birth record, sex marker, change petitions to 6 weeks. Disallow objections to those petitions. Parents won’t be allowed to object to their own child’s petition if the only reason is that change –
SB 418 will disallow insurance carriers from refusing to provide sex rejecting interventions. They’ll be forced to protect gender identity, whatever it might be, and furry surgeries will be covered

Why did Trump believe that Hamas would behave any different?
Hamas has recalled about 7,000 members of its security forces to reassert control over areas of Gaza recently vacated by Israeli troops, according to local sources.
The Palestinian group also appointed five new governors all with military backgrounds, some of whom previously commanded brigades in its armed wing.
The mobilisation order was reportedly issued via phone calls and text messages which said the aim was to “cleanse Gaza of outlaws and collaborators with Israel” and told fighters to report within 24 hours.
Reports from Gaza suggest that armed Hamas units have already deployed across several districts, some wearing civilian clothes and others in the blue uniforms of the Gaza police.
Tensions rose sharply and quickly after two members of Hamas’s elite forces were shot dead by gunmen from the powerful Dughmush clan in Gaza City’s Sabra neighbourhood.
One of them was the son of a senior commander in Hamas’s armed wing, Imad Aqel, who now heads the group’s military intelligence.
Their bodies were left in the street, triggering anger and raising the prospect of a major armed response by Hamas.
Hamas members later surrounded a large area where more than 300 Dughmush gunmen were believed to be holed up, armed with machine guns and improvised explosives.
This morning Hamas killed one Dughmush clan member, and reportedly kidnapped another 30.
Some of the clan’s weapons were looted from Hamas depots during the war, while others had been in the clan’s possession for years.
The Hamas mobilisation had been widely anticipated amid growing uncertainty about who will govern Gaza once the war ends.
This is a key issue that could complicate the start of the second phase of US President Donald Trump’s peace plan, which calls for Hamas to disarm.
A Hamas official abroad declined to comment directly on reports of the security deployment, but told the BBC: “We cannot leave Gaza at the mercy of thieves and militias backed by the Israeli occupation. Our weapons are legitimate… to resist occupation, and they will remain as long as the occupation continues.”
A retired security officer who served for years with the Palestinian Authority in Gaza said he feared the territory was sliding towards another round of internal bloodshed. “Hamas hasn’t changed. It still believes that weapons and violence are the only means to keep its movement alive,” he told the BBC.
“Gaza is flooded with arms. Looters have stolen thousands of weapons and rounds of ammunition from Hamas stores during the war, and some groups have even received supplies from Israel.
“This is a perfect recipe for civil war: weapons, frustration, chaos, and a movement desperate to reassert control over a shattered and exhausted population.” Khalil Abu Shammala, a human rights expert who lives in Gaza, said it remained to be seen whether Hamas would accept handing over control on the ground or seek to obstruct the plan’s implementation.
“There is undoubtedly widespread fear among many Gazans of potential internal fighting, given the many conditions that could fuel it,” he said.
He said Hamas had been forced to accept the peace plan by the severe pressure it was under. “I believe its continued attempts to maintain influence by any means, including involvement in security affairs, could ultimately jeopardise the agreement and plunge Gaza’s residents into even greater suffering,” he said.
These developments since the ceasefire earlier this week have sparked deep concern among Gazans already worn down by two years of a devastating conflict
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce8482418plo
I don’t think Trump believed Hamas would abide by the agreement, or any agreement for that matter.
Exactly. And that is why the very first part of the plan was to release the hostages. We also know that part of the plan is to wipe out Hamas if they violate any part of the agreement…. so, given that they won’t abide by any agreement, once the hostages are out it is GO TIME and they will be removed from the face of the earth 🙂
US Rep Tim Burchett exposes Congress
Reps give military contractors no bid contracts and then buy stocks in those companies right before awarding the contracts He says Congress makes 500-600% return on their investments when doing this insider trading scam
Tim Burchett says Congress did this during the Ukraine War “I’ll give you a good, great example.
When Joe Biden gave our our missile defense system” to Ukraine “We give them our missile defense system, and then we have to replenish ours — Some of those contractors we described get a multi, multi-billion with a B dollar no bid contract.
And who do you think has bought stock in that, in that company?
Members of Congress, 2 weeks prior to the president making that official notice. — They’re making 500% and 600% return on investment. “War is great for business, it’s great for the economy, but it’s not good for, I don’t think it’s good for ourselves.“ “War is great for business

You end up sleeping with somebody. Next day you’re flying back to America — then you’re getting ready to make a key vote and somebody comes up and whispers in your ear, Hey man, are you in a motel room with a girl in, you know, Istanbul or something — He goes, Man, we don’t want that out.
And he goes, no, no, no, no, no, we don’t, we’re not gonna put that out — if you can help us on this little bill, though

to try to influence a vote change.
[ remember the russia collusion propaganda line for years? ]
hint: a desire for easy to get funding for election campaigns is a temptation often flaunted (and often accepted in a quid pro quo thing a ma jig )
imho
I do not know
This is an intelligence tactic so well known I’m surprised folks for fall it anymore.

Been watching the news about the Illegal alien superintendent from Des Moines.
But I’m less interested in the fact that the guy is a serial liar, scammer, illegal resident,
cooker of books. I’m more interested in a phenomenon I’ve been noticing here in lil
old Dekalb County Ga. And many, many, many other school systems nationwide.
Our latest superintendent is on suspension. For orchestrating large kickbacks at the
last school system he worked at. He fits right in with a few other proceeding superintendents.
I’ll leave out the ones who went to jail, who actually rose through the ranks. One who
arranged for cost over runs and kickbacks on school construction.
But, we’ve had superintendents (later fired, golden parachutes) who had this on their
resume’. One had been in postions of power in 3 different school districts, in 3 different
states. Every single one of those school districts had to have the state intervene, and take
them over before they lost certification. A neighboring, city, school district had a “recomended”
female superintendent that was such a rolling disaster that they spent an additional 300K
to buy out her contract. YTG KNEW that said female would be a disaster from one little resume’
fact. She had come from Kansas City, the town that had blown 1 billion in bond money for
schools under a desegregation lawsuit. State of the art everything, magnet schools. The district
was threatened with decertification 2 years later.
What is common among all these, and many more cases? The school boards had laid out
big money to head hunter firms, and this is what was dug up. It would have been far cheaper
to just go out and look under some rocks.
We so need to get the word out to start looking into these head hunter firms. Because I see
this happening time after time after time. And, I long ago gave up the idea that it was by
coincidence.
[ besides not catching that a candidate was not a u.s. citizen – but was hired and employed as such, for almost 2 years]
Also,
apparently the Des Moines school board (elected)
had information that the candidate for Superintendent
did not have a doctorate degree,
yet upon hiring,
publicly announced the person as Dr. Roberts.
( is that resume enhancement kind of like copy catting the miss leadership of ‘Dr.’ Jill biden
– which some miss interpret as a medical noun? (doctorate in education) )
( no, roberts has no formal doctorate degree. )
Now the State wants to do an independent audit of the School finances, but…
…the State auditor’s office (elected) does not have the authority to conduct an audit of Des Moines Public Schools (DMPS), outside of a request for reaudit from a DMPS employee or school board official.
https://www.kcrg.com/2025/10/10/iowa-gop-senators-ask-auditor-rob-sand-audit-des-moines-school-district/
But, other ongoing corrective measures are underway, including action regarding a professional recruiting (head hunter) company.
See the linked article.

“Conservative Host Leaves Longtime Wife to Marry Gay Lover
Robby Soave, a well-known political commentator and co-host of The Hill’s Rising, has become the latest subject of D.C. chatter after revealing his engagement—to a younger gay partner—shortly after parting ways with his wife of nearly a decade. The 36-year-old, who also appears regularly on Fox News and serves as a senior editor at Reason magazine, proposed earlier this month to Jie Jung Shih, a medical student at Georgetown University.”
Vox Day: “I’m sure you’re all absolutely shocked by this totally unexpected turn of events. And Soave is hardly the only one. More than a few credible allegations have been made about “conservative” opinion leaders whose names you would definitely recognize. They’re all constructed of pure astroturf.
Trust only the great books and the ideas that have stood the test of time. Trust only that which is Good, Beautiful, and True. Stop paying attention to people simply because they are capable of mouthing one or two phrases with which you happen to agree. Any actor is capable of doing the same. As a general rule, if someone appears on television or is permitted on YouTube, they are almost certainly fake, probably gay, and definitely irrelevant. And while there are, of course, exceptions to the rule, that doesn’t change the fact that the rule is far more reliable than your easily-manipulated emotions.
“Witness the total ineptitude of GOP Inc.’s Charlie Kirk replacement in trying to address the most basic aspects of the problem of legal immigration. He even tried to appeal to Israel Zangwill’s concept of “the melting pot” coined 290 years after the arrival of the Mayflower, as America’s founding doctrine.
“And consider how Bari Weiss, the new editor-in-chief of CBS News, could only draw 150 viewers to a recent stream after selling her very valuable blog to Paramount for $150 million. All success in Clown World, be it financial or just fame, is not only fake, but formulaic.”
LOL, Never heard of Robby Soave. Was on Fox News? Well have not watched that since Hurricane Katrina and Shep Smith pissed me off.
I do watch a fair amount of Fox News, (as well as getting many other sources of news..).
I can’t recall ever seeing Robby Soave. So, pretty certainly not a frequent guest.
Trump AGAIN posts frustration with DOJ about the number of agents in the J6 crowd. Paid Antifa also infiltrated the crowd, btw, but first things first. What are we to make of a President who has to constantly encourage his appointees “to do something?”
Points:
Having watched Government operated “Hate Groups” for years, how come no IC agents exposure within the Antifa ranks? Their has to be many and some in positions of power & influence to ‘steer’ it? OKC goes right back to Elohim City and also had German & Iraq assistance. Skokie,Hal Turner etc were all government run “hate” groups.
The simple truth that there have been no whistleblowers from the IC on these matters condemns the lot of them as traitors to the nation…
PDJT is blinded by some form of loyalty to Ms. Wiles. He cannot see the forest, because of the trees….
I am not so patiently awaiting my kitchen table balance sheet, to show some improvements. I am of that age old opinion about rain on my leg.
I appreciate the attempts to reign in the marxist deep state…
Bringing manufacturing back, again, is taking too long.
I don’t know about the rest of the forgotten men and women, but I am far more stressed economically, than I was during Bribem “I Did That” administration but ….its been a snowballing situation.
I hear you Aggie, but on some things the truth is it takes more time than our patience sometimes allows for – on others it doesn’t.
“Bringing back manufacturing” is one of those longer time frame endeavors, especially as we do NOT live in a totalitarian system of any form and only the conditions and incentives can be altered – companies can not be forced to do anything. That said, there are a lot more such activities taking place, but even once decisions are made, the acts themselves take time.
On the kitchen table balance sheet…the hard truth is that inflation driven costs rarely decrease and even small amounts of inflation cause significant changes in already bloated prices. True reductions in much of the kitchen table costs require deflation. There are exceptions – coffee comes to mind.
The areas that no further patience is justified are those on the justice side of the equation and on the Congressional side of the equation.
Not excuses, just rational acknowledgement. 🙂

Oh MY!!! The Virginia AG race is over.
No election is over until the final tally is done. 2020 is the perfect example…
LMAO. Harrison, you are spot on. I won’t forget the mysteriously appearing thumb drive with votes that put Spanberger over the top in her congressional race against Nick Frietas on 2020.
Dan Scavino is well thought of by many patriots. He rose through the ranks from very humble beginnings. +

Interesting take on a few topics.
Nails it on the Charlie Kirk stuff… don’t let emotions cloud your judgement. Alarm bells should be ringing, & you should definitely be questioning the weirdness of it ALL- both during & after.
“Jim Breuer Reacts”
wrong link! Catchy tune though.
.@VP nukes George Slopidopolous for obsessing over made-up Fake News BS while not asking a single question about the Democrat Shutdown: “Here’s, George, why fewer and fewer people watch your program…”
George gets big mad, cuts @VP off, and goes to commercial 🤣
Always good to remember that SH&*for brains Fidget-opoulous is a member of the Council On Foreign Relations, who have been working to undermine and destroy our Constitutional Republic since their inception and who mange the CIA’s running of the Operation Mockingbird Fake News media.
He did us one big favor in getting Obozxo to reveal his real ‘faith”
Obama: “My Muslim Faith”
Also enjoyed when Obozo called his husband “Michael”
George is mad and I am glad.
The little cretin is about 50 points short of average…
“I didn’t insinuate anything” he says, then goes on to repeat his insinuation in the form of a question – followed by claiming an answer wasn’t given, when in fact an answer was given, the poor little boy just didn’t like it as it wasn’t what he lusted for.
The fact he got so hot under the collar was just icing on the cake!
Stop going on these programs.
Mamdani reminds me of the Gupta’s the Indian crime family who plundered and pillaged the once first world nation of South Africa while ordering their Black puppet Jacob Zuma to push race hate propaganda against the founding Caucasian population. Kamala Harris the Indian pretending to be Black strangely has family Indian Marxist roots to the Marxist wars against the Christians in Africa. Seems to be a pattern as we look toward,Scotland,Ireland,England/UK/Canada. Our newest generation of International Brigade revolutionaries just like Enoch Powell warned.

All it took was one true voice to make the demon take flight. This works on all the other CIA plants, too.
James 4

Is this true ❓❓❓

I have never met a dog that was racist. I doubt a dog can recognize race.
That includes dogs owned by Asians, Blacks, Caucasians, Hispanics, Latin Americans, Middle Easterners and Native Americans. If dogs aren’t friendly or are mean, it is because of a bad owner, not racism.
Dogs do recognize the type of people by which they have been mistreated.
Bingo Jake! My dad’s guard dog did as they beat her and maced her during the numerous breakins at the family business. Blinded her in one eye.
Baal/Moloch hate the Nazarenes and Co.
The Charlie Kirk message Nigerians will always remember – P.M. News:
“The death of American conservative commentator Charlie Kirk has sparked reactions around the world, including in Nigeria, where his August tweet about ongoing violence against Christians has resurfaced and captured attention.
Kirk, who passed away recently under circumstances yet to be fully disclosed, had been active on X (formerly Twitter), where on August 19, he highlighted a grim statistic about Nigeria:
“Did you know 125,000 Christians have been murdered and 19,000 churches destroyed by Muslims in Nigeria in the last 15 years? Weird how that never gets any attention. Wonder why.” …
While @lekan_olayinka1 reflected on Kirk’s broader activism, saying:
“The current genocide of Nigerian Christians had zero international coverage because no one touches the Muslims doing it. Charlie Kirk spoke up. And several other conservative influencers like him… Charlie stood against transgenderism. He stood for women. Charlie protected the unborn. There were 1.14 million abortions in the US in 2024. Charlie stood for life. That is who I mourn.”
Although Charlie Kirk’s political influence in Africa was limited, Nigerians now remember him for speaking out on issues largely ignored locally and internationally.” …….
If you understand Pike’s 3 world wars, peace is the last thing they want until they finish WWIII and their end game.
Which is part of the reason that they hate PDJT so much CK 😉
Exacto mundo my friend. Hat tip to WNC mate.
