Bondi vowed to prosecute and squeeze Lemon 🙂
I know it’s an obvious pun…
Low hanging fruit!
That was a-peel-ing wordplay!
A sour zest
Are you sure Bondi isn’t confusing her job with listening to Zeppelin in the Fox green room?
Re-living great memories? Song could have been written about someone just like her.
https://genius.com/Led-zeppelin-the-lemon-song-lyrics
That was some dumb and disgusting lyrics.
And famous at the time. And kept going strong for years. Heard it too on those stations that ‘Got the Led Out”.
Back in the days when there were only two types of classic hard rock stations. Metallica or Zeppelin.
I don’t think either exists today.
Sounds wonderful, but Don lemon isn’t in the first 300 people she should be arresting.
Think about that.
Lemon certainly is low

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 366 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.
Amen
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
Amen!

The U.S. Supreme Court hears two cases today, audio scheduled to go live at 10:00 a.m. east coast time; here is the link to listen to the audio when it goes live:
https://www.supremecourt.gov/
It is also assumed the Court may issue ruling(s) today and the link to read those will also be on that same page, under the toolbar icon titled “Opinions”
The first case to be argued is Wolford vs Lopez. It is a Second Amendment case, about licensed concealed carry permit holders, and disputes between the various circuit courts on their rulings as to where those permittees are allowed to actually carry when it comes to entering on private property that is open to the public; these are the two questions before the Court:
1)”Whether the Ninth Circuit erred in holding, in direct conflict with the Second Circuit, that Hawaii may presumptively prohibit the carry of handguns by licensed concealed carry permit holders on private property open to the public unless the property owner affirmatively gives express permission to that handgun carrier.” and
2) “Whether the Ninth Circuit erred in solely relying on post-Reconstruction Era and later laws in applying Bruen’s text, history and tradition test in direct conflict with the holdings of the Third, Fifth, Eighth and Eleventh Circuits.”
The second case is M & K Employee Solutions vs Trustees of the IAM Pension Fund. This is a question about the part where the Employee Retirement Income Security Act imposes a withdrawal liability when an employer withdraws from an underfunded multi-employer pension plan.
There is one question before the Court in this hearing:
“Whether 29 U.S.C. 1391’s instruction to compute withdrawal liability “as of the end of the plan year” requires the plan to base the computation on the actuarial assumptions to which its actuary subscribed at the end of the year, or allows the plan to use different actuarial assumptions that were adopted after the end of the year.”
When are they going to get to the really important cases? I’m a 2nd amendment person so I’ll give the first one a pass…but let’s get Trumps cases on the docket!
this site might be of help as it lists the cases granted, argument (if already argued shows the date if not yet heard simply says pending), if it has been decided, then adds a citation reference.
https://www.oyez.org/cases/2025
otherwise, on the main link to the U.S. Supreme Court’s website it has a calendar and one can scroll forward, by month, to see argument dates and should be able to then click on the red highlighted date and see what argument is scheduled for those days.
I feel same. The President, no, this country, is owed an expedited process for these cases. The SCROTUS could do this but they don’t.
THREE tourists were found shot dead by their rental home near Disney World in what cops described as a random attack. The trio were reportedly left stranded after their car broke down in Kissimmee, Florida.
Ahmad Jihad Bojeh has been identified as the suspect (nothing to do with Islam. ;/)
Two brothers, Robert Kraft, 70, and Douglas Joseph Kraft, 68, were among those killed.
James John Puchan, a 68-year-old tourist from Ohio, was named as the third person shot dead.
They were found outside their home, located around eight miles from Disney World, on Saturday afternoon, according to cops in Osceola County.
Dispatchers received 911 calls at 12:14pm and cops arrived at the property five minutes later.
They saw the suspect, later identified as Ahmad Jihad Bojeh (nothing to do with Islam. ;/) 29, running toward his home.
His property is located next to the rental home.
Christopher Blackmon, the Osceola County Sheriff, described the killings as “cold-blooded.”
“There was no conflict between these people,” he told reporters.
“This was just random (nothing to do with slaughtering disbelievers). And this happened to be the person who lived next door.” Blackmon described the killings as “horrific and senseless.”
Cops found two guns in Bojeh’s home after searching the home. And, he was booked into the Osceola County jail on three murder charges.
Bojeh has had previous run-ins with the law. In 2021, he was considered a suspect in an attempted murder case, according to court records seen by The Osceola News-Gazette.
He was later found not guilty in the case. Cops said he was known to the sheriff’s office.
https://www.the-sun.com/news/15801912/tourists-shot-dead-rental-home-disney-world-florida/
Just some random guy named Ahmad JIHAD Bojeh doing what guys named JIHAD do best….commit random JIHAD against the infidels.
Cultural Enrichment at its near worst.
Multiple oddities in that story.
Senior citizens renting a home to enjoy a long trip to Disney?
People stranded far from that home found dead outside that home shot by a neighbor?
Idiot murderer who hangs around his victims until the cops show up and then flees in such a way as to show the cops where to find him?
They were attending a car show.https://www.nbc4i.com/news/two-ohio-men-among-three-killed-in-florida-shooting-suspect-charged-with-murder/
And how is anybody with a cell phone stranded these days? They should be able to get an Uber in 10 minutes.
Diversity and freedom of religion. Two things that became the fabric of the nation in the 21st century.
Interesting that these brothers are named Kraft.
This may have been a targeted murder by a moron thinking he’s killing members of the elites..
I’m probably giving him too much credit but the Kraft name here is noteworthy.
I was married to a Kraft. As he used to say, “No relation.”
Coming to neighborhood near you…Get right with God…Prepare accordingly…Keep your powder dry…God Bless the USA!!!
A judge and his wife were shot and wounded at their suburban Indiana home on Sunday — sparking a massive multi-agency investigation as the suspect remains at large, according to authorities.
Tippecanoe Superior Court 2 Judge Steven Meyer and his wife, Kimberly, were shot just before 2:30 p.m. in their home on Mill Pond Lane in Lafayette on Sunday, according to the Lafayette Police Department.
https://nypost.com/2026/01/19/us-news/judge-and-his-wife-shot-inside-suburban-indiana-home-shooter-remains-at-large/
I looked him up, a Democrat Superior Court state judge but no indication of his judicial beliefs or rulings. One does wonder if it could be revenge for a particular ruling, say letting a criminal go and then having that person harm someone or a lived on? Of course it could be his personal affairs, we have just seen that type of murder in the news with a vascular surgeon.
Or it could be a hit ordered from prison
Greenland’s Billionaire Investors: Bezos, Gates, Altman And More Followed Trump’s Lead – Forbes
Just months after President Donald Trump first expressed interest in the United States possibly gaining control over Greenland, some of the richest people in the world—including Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Michael Bloomberg—began making strategic investments in the mineral-rich island.
Ronald Lauder: The heir to the Estée Lauder fortune, is credited with giving Trump the idea of taking over Greenland during his first term, former White House national security adviser John Bolton confirmed to Forbes.
Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Michael Bloomberg: All have invested since 2019 in Kobold Metals, which has looked for valuable rare earth minerals used in electronic devices through AI-powered exploration of the island.
Sam Altman: The OpenAI CEO invested in Kobold in 2022.
Peter Thiel: The Paypal and Palantir tech titan funded in early 2021 the startup Praxis, which aims to build a technologically advanced “freedom city” on Greenland.
Howard Lutnick: Trump’s Secretary of Commerce served as CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, which has invested in Greenland mining company Critical Metals Corp. for over three decades (he has since divested from Cantor and transferred his shares to his adult children).
John Bolton, Trump’s former national security adviser during his first term—and now prominent political enemy—told Forbes that Trump first discussed buying Greenland and put him in charge of a formal report exploring the possibility in late 2018, saying that “a prominent businessman he knew had suggested that the U.S. buy Greenland,” and later identifying the businessman as Lauder. Lauder and Trump have a long personal history. They attended the Wharton School of Business at the same time, and Lauder has been a longtime funder of conservative candidates and causes (in March of last year, Lauder gave $5 million to MAGA Inc., a super PAC that supports Trump, according to data from the Federal Election Commission).
Lauder has since made no secret of his interest in Greenland and its resources. In an op-ed published in the New York Post last February, he laid out potential scenarios where the United States could assert greater influence over Greenland short of buying the country (as recently floated by the White House), including forming “a new trilateral agreement with Greenland and Denmark to formalize Arctic cooperation.”
Bezos, Gates and Bloomberg were first reported to have invested in Kobold in early 2019 when the company closed its Series A round—just months after Trump started looking into “buying” Greenland. The investments were made through Breakthrough Energy, a fund led by Gates whose stated aim is “to accelerate green energy innovation and build the industries of the future.” The fund also participated in Kobold’s Series C investment round in December 2024, which valued it at just shy of $3 billion based on a $537 million capital input, according to a press release shared by the company.
Then, in 2022, Altman pitched in through his VC fund Apollo Projects, contributing to the firm’s Series B round, which had a total size of $192.5 million. An SEC filing from last week shows that Kobold is in the process of raising additional funds, meaning they could approach the billionaires again. None of the billionaires named in this piece responded to Forbes’ requests for comment. Kobold declined to discuss topics pertaining to Greenland on-the-record.
“ The heir to the Estée Lauder fortune, is credited with giving Trump the idea of taking over Greenland during his first term, former White House national security adviser John Bolton confirmed to Forbes.”
LOL at this drivel. The US has zero interest in mining anything on Greenland. It is a strategic location situated between us and Chinese influence allowed and encouraged by European parasites.
Wrong.
The US is working very hard to find our own sources of rare earth materials to not only make us more independent of China on this topic, but to also take this money from China to further shove China back in a box.
I have no doubt at all that there will be some mining operations developed in Greenland by all these investors.
They are all investing here in this because they then want to make money- that’s the name of the game.
So what will they do- make snowballs?
THIS is from the article that I just linked to in another post here this morning:
Shipping Routes and Resources
What is this conflict really about? Donald Trump’s interest in Greenland’s strategic control is twofold. On one hand, Greenland’s rich natural resources – particularly rare earths – are crucial. On the other, it’s about controlling key Arctic shipping routes. Washington’s focus is on dominating the Northeast Passage along Russia and the Northwest Passage along Canada. These routes linking Europe, Asia, and North America could become strategically vital in the future. The Davis Strait between Greenland and Canada also plays a key role in the U.S. power game, providing access to significant resource zones. The North Atlantic region is generally considered essential for the U.S. government’s military security.
The US has demonstrated interest in Greenland’s mineral potential, especially under the Trump administration. Although President Trump stated, “We need Greenland for national security, not for minerals,” his administration’s actions suggest otherwise.
A $5 billion executive order was issued to support mining projects deemed critical for national security, and the US Export-Import Bank (EXIM) is reportedly considering financing for American mining ventures in Greenland, such as Amaroq’s projects.
The US does have interest in Greenland’s mineral resources, but this interest is secondary to broader national security and geopolitical goals. While mining is not currently viable due to economic, environmental, and logistical barriers, the US sees strategic value in preventing adversarial powers like China and Russia from gaining influence.
Therefore, the statement “The US has zero interest in mining anything on Greenland” is false. The interest exists, but it is strategic rather than immediate or economic.
One thought…Gates?
And the recent news of Greenlanders being made unable to conceive and bear children?
Something smells in Denmark…pun intended.
At this point, Gates has been proven to be so evil that I can’t even think of anything at all he’s doing anymore that we’d call Good.
Protesters gather outside Atlanta’s Emory University to rail against Iranian official’s daughter’s employment

Don Lemon is doubling down after being caught red-handed conspiring with anti-ICE radicals who raided a Sunday church service in St. Paul, casting blame on the parishioners whom he labeled “entitled” and accusing them of “white supremacy.”
“I think people who are in religious groups like that — it’s not the type of Christianity that I practice — but I think they’re entitled, and that entitlement comes from white supremacy,” Lemon said of Minnesota’s Cities Church in a jaw-dropping interview with lefty “I’ve Had It” podcaster Jennifer Welch.
“They think this country was built for them, that it’s a Christian country.”
https://nypost.com/2026/01/19/us-news/don-lemon-blasts-minnesota-churchgoers-harassed-by-anti-ice-protesters-for-white-supremacy/
DESPICABLE !!
Don Lemon’s world has been sprinkled with more “fairy dust” than even he imagines! Tinker Bell is certainly smiling but not for reasons Don believes.
Now try the same, mostly peaceful “protest” at a mosque, girly man.
What a POS! 💩
it’s not the type of Christianity that I practice
Darn right because he follows the spirit of anitichrist
Brilliant explanation of why America is, indeed, a Christian nation. Sundance posted this some months ago but it’s worth watching again. And again.
I miss Charlie Kirk 😢❤️
Amen.
Adams is most frequently quoted, but was not alone.
In his Farewell Address, Washington wrote: “Whatever may be conceded to the influence of
refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect
that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle…Promote then, as an object
of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge. In proportion as the
structure of a government gives force to public opinion, it is essential that public opinion should
be enlightened.”
”
It is hard to imagine that George Washington would have advocated for freedom from religion in
the “institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge.
”
. Rather he viewed education as
inseparable from religious principle, so that public opinion may be enlightened and national
morality prevail. If institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge are an object of primary
importance, according to Washington, then what they teach cannot be separated from
experience, reason or religious principle… for “It is substantially true that virtue or morality is a
necessary spring of popular government” and so it is the “foundation of the fabric.”
Though the men in black robes disagree.
Sorry Obama, It is a Christian nation. Diversity divides.
On the fiftieth anniversary of his signing, August 2, 1826, Charles Carroll wrote: “I am now the last surviving signer…[and I] do hereby recommend to the present and future generation the principles of that important document as the best earthly inheritance their ancestors could bequeath to them, and pray that the civil and religious liberties they have secured to my country may be perpetuated to the remotest posterity and extended to the whole family of man. To obtain religious, as well as civil liberty, I entered zealously into the Revolution and observing the Christian religion divided into many sects, I found the hope that no one would be so predominate as to become the religion of the State…God grant that this religious liberty may be preserved in these States to the end of time and that all believing in the religion of Christ may practice the leading principle of charity, the basis of every virtue.”

Bradley Birzer, 2010
Well, Jennifer Welch, sour grapes. It was founded as a Christian nation and built for us, their posterity.
Amen and amen. “Occupy til I come.”
What in the heck? Lemon is going down the path of Keith Olbermann. Shouldn’t he be out on a ledge somewhere?
His idea of Christianity he practices is a perverted, satan induced disgusting practice. Go away you perverted demon! No one cares what you think! Your 15 minutes of fame disappeared a long time ago.

Khamenei has several relatives in Britain and France, including his nephew Mahmoud Moradkhani, while the grandchildren of the founder of the Islamic revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini, have settled in Canada.
The brother of Ali Larijani, secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran, lectures in Scotland on cybersecurity, while the children of the former president, Hassan Rouhani, live in Austria and studied at Oxford.
According to one former Iranian minister, 5,000 aghazadeh live in America, Iran’s greatest enemy, the ‘Great Satan’.
One of the most notorious examples of the regime’s so called aghazadeh is Sasha Sobhani, the son of a former Iranian ambassador to Venezuela under President Ahmadinejad.
With millions of followers online, Sobhani has built a profile flaunting super-yachts, private jets, fast cars and lavish parties with scantily clad women – imagery that has become a lightning rod for public anger inside Iran.

Klantifa is now hunting down conservatives in the streets of Minneapolis:
https://gatesofvienna.net/2026/01/gates-of-vienna-news-feed-1-19-2026/#707208
Left-wing activists in Minneapolis were seen beating a white man in the street Saturday after accusing him of being right-wing, only for him to tell them he was a fellow protester.
Video from the scene shows the man being surrounded by a crowd of far-left activists, shoved, and knocked to the ground. As the assault continued, people in the crowd could be heard telling others to stop and “let him up” after realizing “he’s one of us.”
Mob of Anti-ICE Agitators Harass, Assault White Man They Suspect is Right-Wing in Minneapolis
I, Cash Dotel, wish to announce the arrest of a homegrown terrorist living on welfare in the penthouse of the Hylton Hotel. He was wearing clothes made in China, drinking Russian vodka, smoking a Cuban cigar and drinking a cup of coffee from Columbia. My foot agents, because their vehicle along with classified papers was stolen by peaceful protesters, have handed him over to an angry persecutor from the doj who assures a law book will be thrown at him. We are working hard to keep people like this off our streets. Signed: Call this a joke.

That dreaded Global Warming Again! 🙂
A Russian astrophysicist some years ago predicted colder weather in our era because of less energy from the sun coming to us due to sunspot cycles.
Less energy from the sun = cooler weather here.
Everyone wants clean air, and the air is in fact – except in China and other terrible places – in First World countries cleaner than 50 or 60 years ago.
But the idea that electric cars and solar panels will “save the planet from global warming” is nutzoid.

The Democrat open borders plan to entrench single party rule, explained in under two minutes
1. Flood the country with untold millions of illegals by land, sea, and air from all over the world. Enough to eclipse the populations of 36 individual US states so far
2. Prioritize the needs of these millions of non-citizens over the needs of the American citizen, with free flights, buses, hotels, meals and phones, ensuring their loyalty to the political party that imported them
3. Keep them in the country at all costs, even when they commit violent crime like murder and rape. Attack the language used to describe the criminals, as opposed to the criminals themselves. Slander critics as racist
4. Ensure their privileges are made irrevocable with city and state sanctuary laws that act as population magnets. Codify permanent status and ensure non-cooperation with ICE
5. Count the non-citizens in the census that will determine congressional apportionment in the House of Representatives. As of now, that would equal 13 extra congressional districts a tremendous amount of electoral power
6. Wage a massive, heavily funded lawfare campaign to change state voting laws that legalize mass mail-in ballots, no signature verification, and no proof of citizenship requirements, making it nearly impossible to prove voter fraud
7. Lock in the permanent voting majority with campaign promises of lavish benefits and permanent privileges, enshrining generational fealty to the Democrat Party
8. Win elections
9. Entrenched single-party rule has been achieved
The best part? Your tax dollars are paying for it
Sounds about right.
Apes must be a quick typist.
Isn’t uni-party rule, single party rule ?
Same as. I’ve been arguing this since 2012.
Sort of. It’s like crime families working together when interests align and going against each other when they don’t.
Mail-in ballots is the method being used by Democrats to take out the other families.
Gruesome refuses to turn over voter rolls, to enforce voter ID, and has arbitrarily created redistricting in favor of demon-craps. 👿
It is increasingly impossible for a Republican to win an election.
This state is so corrupt. Minnesota pales by comparison.

Diego Garcia sounds like the kind of name some ICE agents might be interested in visiting…
The ICE agents would run into an important US Navy base, along with the British RN. Not a whole lot else to do other than water sports and drinking.

Today marks the one-year anniversary of Trump’s second term, with three years remaining until January 20, 2029.
I do hope last nights college football result is emblematic of what this year will be as it regards Trump and his presidency/administration.
No, I didn’t watch it, I just watched the link to the final few minutes. Indiana beat Miami in Miami.

Ten bucks says nothing happens.
Why should that event be different from the hundreds or more preceding it?
Normies will spin around like one foot is nailed to the floor, the right side of alt-media will fume and “they should” and “we should” until they’re out of breath, and one smarmy political reptile or another will make hay with theater productions pretending to “do something”.
Tax money is stuffed in suitcases by the millions, gooks are in the wire, and American culture is branded as “raysis”/evil/oppressive by the cheering news media. All while the innocent suffer.
Bondi primps, Trump makes some noise about it, Noem purses her lips. Nothing happens. And nothing will happen.
No one is coming to save America, but the first self-defense act will bring hell-on-wheels to the victim, and outrage from the people who aren’t paying attention. We lose by playing by their rules and they know it. They are secure in their position, and why would they NOT be?
All while the innocent suffer, all while the taxpayer funds our own destruction.

‘An act of GREAT STUPIDITY’
Donald Trump appears to have turned on its ally the United Kingdom by calling Britain’s decision to give away the Chagos Islands to Mauritius ‘an act of GREAT STUPIDITY’.
Writing on his social media platform Mr Trump said: “Shockingly, our “brilliant” NATO Ally, the United Kingdom, is currently planning to give away the Island of Diego Garcia, the site of a vital U.S. Military Base, to Mauritius, and to do so FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER.
“There is no doubt that China and Russia have noticed this act of total weakness. These are International Powers who only recognize STRENGTH, which is why the United States of America, under my leadership, is now, after only one year, respected like never before.
“The UK giving away extremely important land is an act of GREAT STUPIDITY, and is another in a very long line of National Security reasons why Greenland has to be acquired.
“Denmark and its European Allies have to DO THE RIGHT THING. Thank you for your attention to this matter. PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP”
Last year Mr Trump appeared to back to the deal in which the UK agreed to hand over its sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius, while retaining control of a UK-US military base on Diego Garcia, the largest island in the territory.
United Kingdom turns on its ally the US by giving away Diego Garcia and its important military base.
Trump responds.
There fixed it!

“to charge” let us know when he ‘IS CHARGED’.
And on MLK day. Idiot that he is!
A shocking development occurred when a Minnesotan high school, holding an anti-ICE parade with proud liberal parents looking on, turned violent as students started fighting among themselves. It was cut short by community “marshals” ironically there to protect students from ICE.
There’s an old saying that when the cat’s away, the mice will play. But in Minnesota, even when the adults are standing right there cheering them on, the mice still can’t help themselves.
The Land of Ten Thousand Lakes has become ground zero for progressive hysteria over federal immigration enforcement. Schools shuttered for days. Attorney General Keith Ellison filing lawsuits against the feds. Parents forming human shields outside school buildings like we’re living in some kind of war zone. The entire state apparatus has been mobilized against ICE agents who are simply doing their jobs. And for what? For enforcing laws that have been on the books for decades? I’d laugh if it weren’t so exhausting.
Inspiring stuff, right? Real profiles in courage. Just wait.
Then the protesters started beating each other up.
Let that sink in for a moment. The demonstration against law enforcement had to be shut down early—not by police in riot gear, not by counter-protesters, not by the big bad ICE agents they’d been warned about. No, these young activists managed to shut themselves down by descending into violence against each other. Video footage shows absolute chaos erupting inside the Capitol as students throw punches and grapple with one another while others scramble to escape. And who had to step in and restore order? The same police these kids were out there protesting.
You truly cannot make this stuff up. I’ve tried. Reality keeps outpacing my imagination.
The community “marshals” who showed up specifically to protect students from the supposed threat of immigration officers? Couldn’t protect them from each other. The young activists demanding safety for their community? Created the very danger they claimed to fear. Is anyone else seeing the irony here, or is it just me?

Monkeys see.
Monkeys do.
Just showing their loony parents that they can ‘peacefully protest’ too.
Was this a Bolshevik/Menshevik fight? Or were there some normal kids who got tired of the Commie Indoctrination?
Sounds like commie against commie, no normals including parents.
Waiting for an atrocity
With the attack on the Cities Church, the Minnesota Nice lefties have crossed a clear line.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2026/01/waiting_for_an_atrocity.html
So we hear the cries of “why won’t Trump do something…” Why doesn’t he make his move? Why doesn’t he send in the 101st the way Ike did? Why doesn’t he federalize the state National Guard? Why doesn’t he declare martial law, clean out the streets, and send the cosplay Bolshis back to their dorms?
The answer to that it simple: he needs an atrocity. Now, from our point of view, this has already happened, and in spades.
Well, here’s the thing. We’ve seen all that. But the man in the street, your average American, hasn’t.
He hasn’t seen it because the Minneapolis uprising has been carefully curated by the media to look exactly the opposite of what it is. Hired leftist thugs and TdA members have been masked by images of ICE officers presented as neo-Nazi thugs tormenting the innocent. This past weekend, the media was full of reports that the DoJ was deliberately hiring “white supremacists’ to serve in ICE. This is all that they hear.
If Trump was to send in the troops at this point, the Morlock vote would hear that this was the second coming of fascism, that Trump had shown his true colors, that end of democracy was nigh and could be stopped only by heroic figures like Tim Walz and Ilhan Omar. The media would continue riding this straight up until November.
So that’s why we need an atrocity. That’s why we need something so horrifying, so ghastly, so grim as to be impossible to cover up or ignore. That may sound cynical, and it may sound cold, but that’s the world as it is, and it ain’t any other way.
President Trump is letting the left destroy themselves.
Oh, I think that when he invokes the Insurrection Act, a lot of American citizens will breathe a sigh of relief. And, wonder what the hell took so long. Didn’t we learn anything in 2020?
Nothing is going to change there until force is used to deliver real consequences. Unfortunately, some innocent people are going to die – and some non-innocents, as well. But the uprising will stop.
Greetings Treepers! 🤜✝️🤛
morning
Howdy.

Why JPMorgan’s Desk Thinks The Greenland Standoff Ends In A Bullish “Negotiated Arranagement”

How’d that negotiated Panama Canal Treaty, courtesy of Henry Kissinger, work out for us?
So you now “own” the place. You just bought an iceberg.
So you now “own” the place. You just bought an iceberg.
You continue to troll people by disparaging President Trump’s plan to own Greenland.
You have zero clue as to the importance of actual ownership.
It doesn’t matter how much of an iceberg Greenland may or may not be.
And as a matter of fact, Greenland is NOT an iceberg.
Without ownership there is no way to control the offshore waters in terms of things like shipping lanes, fishing and seafood harvesting, drilling for oil and gas, etc.
There is also the issue of treaties.
Ownership is very important.
Please educate yourself.

There is no point in “owning Greenland,” because most of the subcontinent is deeply covered by ice and is uninhabitable.
Having lots of natural resources is one thing. Profitably extracting them is quite another. If it were practical to do that, it would already be going on. There’s a reason why almost no one lives there.
Build a base there if you need one. But, there’s no point in saying that you “own” a territory that you can’t realistically do anything with.
Actual legal ownership overrides the idiom, “possession is 9/10 of the law”.
So, yes, there is in fact a point in owning Greenland.
Don’t worry, no one will ever accuse you of being a legal scholar . . .

Start arresting these officials for aiding and abetting an insurrection. If the Governor finds himself sitting in the gray bar hotel, without parole, he will stop talking.
I’ve borrowed this from yesterday’s article about President Trump and his Peace Council:
In essence, as people of self-appointed political importance are starting to realize, President Trump is assembling an entirely new structure for global partnerships that will likely end up with the functional obsolesce of the United Nations. Trump is selecting world leaders through the invite to a global board of peace; Gaza merely represents the initial venue.
It looks like what he has planned for Davos is huge. The EU and globalist agenda will be shattered and the so called leaderswill either sign onto Trump’s plan or be completely exposed. It effectively resets EU direction, minimizes Globalists agenda, brings other players into his new direction gor peace and other initiatives. Looking do forward to seeing how this plays out during the week. Bless President Trump for his leadership.
The Assitant Attorney General of the United States for Civil Rights having an argument with a private citizen on “X” yesterday says it all about the pathetic unseriousness of Trump’s DOJ. Ms. Dhillon…please stay the F off social media for at least a few minutes and do your damn job. The fact yesterday was a federal holiday (while most Americans had to work) is no excuse for delayed action. It sure didn’t stop the democrats who were able to get judge Boasberg into his office on a couple of Saturday nights to issue injunctions against deportations. Read full “X” thread to understand how lame her arguments are and how defensive DOJ is getting.

After Hours Emergency Contact Information
If there is a civil matter, such as a ship arrest/attachment or a request for emergency injunctive relief, that requires the immediate attention of a district judge of the court after regular hours, on a weekend, or a holiday, you must first electronically file the case and attach any relevant pleading(s) in question.
Then, please call the number of the division in which you filed the case:
The President’s team isn’t all the President’s, Harmeet.

Morning Treeps,
Thomas Kolbe is a good writer, this is a good unpacking of what is going on with Trump, Greenland and the Eurotrash.
It’s nothing we don’t know, it’s just another person’s take and a few good points.
I’ll post the link at the bottom of this.
This article got me to thinking about Tariffs and the Supreme Court’s ruling coming up..
Frankly, I don’t think that it’s even right that the Supreme Court is weighing in and issuing a “Ruling” on this topic.
Every single country out there, like every single person, we’ve all got our strengths and weaknesses to use and built upon to create progress.
The Chinese have and use their clear advantage in population numbers, they’ve become an entire manufacturing sector simply because of this point alone. Some countries have good land and grow stuff, others have minerals and dig up stuff.
We can go down the list here of what all the nations have but where I’m going with this is what what we do really well here is make money, we’ve got an economy that they all want in on..
For us to then harness our economical strength and use this as a weapon instead of missiles and drones, this is a win and it’s a giant power shift too away from the warmongers.
I believe that most average Americans that are not mentally ill would agree that it’s far better to use economic power over physical weapons.
We voted to end wars, but there is still a need to create order and progress, something is needed to use for a tool- so let it be tariffs instead of weapons and attacks.
This is a talent the US has, it’s a strength, it’s what we’re all working to build; economic might. This is the bedrock of this country- so for the Supreme Court to think they have the power to pick and choose what we decide to utilize out of our toolbox to get certain jobs done, that is nuts.
No one out here is attempting to tell the Supreme Court how to do their job- so why would they then tell the Executive how to do his? and then even possibly take his mightiest tool from him? This is not okay.
No one is taking the laptops or the stacks of books away from the Supreme Court Justices.
They all need what they have to do their jobs.

Much Defiance, No Strategy: Germany’s Outrage At Trump’s Greenland Policy
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/much-defiance-no-strategy-germanys-outrage-trumps-greenland-policy#comment-stream
A simpleton’s (me) concern about tariffs, from the kitchen table spread sheet.
It seems that the tariffs put more money in the pockets of Americans. Not stressing over how to pay the bills, is liberating for the average forgotten man and woman. And frees up brain space to observe and think about what is truly going on.
China’s manufacturing….I have a hard time thinking they are doing ok after the bribem years. People were focused on survival, not cheap garbage from Walmart.
And…not to mention those American “bonded warehouses” which offer protections from tariffs and taxes.
IMHO, that is one strong reason that the globalists are against tariffs, easing the stress of Americans….aside from the fact that they have to ‘pay up’.
We know they don’t have a biologist on the USSC, but do they have an “economist”?
Asking for a friend…and still healthy.
Tariffs are a completely routine part of international trade. Every country imposes them. They are a “cost of goods sold.” The only difference for America is that we haven’t been collecting them nearly enough – we’ve only been paying them. Out the nose . . .
When Trump showed that “table of tariffs” that he was about to impose, those figures were 50 percent of what the nations in question have been charging us!
Effectively, they are an “import/export tax.” And they can be a substantial source of revenue when people badly want to export things to your country’s markets.
