BREAKING: The Islamic Republic has released a new message to the United States. “Your F-22s and B-2s are no match for our flying carpet force

lol not sure why but it reminds me of the family guy skit where its aladdin flying with his girl on a carpet, and someone fires an RPG at them.
See this yet?
Yikes! Video in post. 😳😳

latest speech…..
Hodgetwins (@hodgetwins): “What?” | XCancel
Just for the record, it may be all that’s available, but I think the Trump is Bibi’s $itch angle reeks of desperation.
Even if it were true, your whispered implications that Jared and Bibi are manipulating a doddering Trump into taking out Irans ability to make an atomic bomb by destroying their military capabilities – most sane people, at least not those so invested in hating Trump – can see it was a good thing.
Look at Mandami in New York. The enemy is here and is strong… or was.
But keep trying.
I am sharing……🤷♀️
Perhaps you should direct your attention
to the HodgeTwins? 🤣
You can advise them of the error of their thinking….
HodgeTwins have a pretty sizable following.
🤷♀️
Lol. Always deflect when one calls out the propaganda push.
Exactly what I am doing! 👏👍
Why discredit and not take into consideration
what the HodgeTwins are saying?
And a commenter here goes on a non-sequitur…
about…I have have no idea what 🤷♀️🙃
I have always liked the HodgeTwins….
Interesting to find out what their take is
on what is happening in our Country 🇺🇸
Perhaps they have no idea who the HodgeTwins are? 🤔
3.5 Million followers on X…and their YouTube
and other platforms….sizable number of followers!
People are listening to what they are saying !
Hodgetwins (@hodgetwins): “Ted Cruz is Israel first and America last” | XCancel
Influencers?
Just because someone has lots of followers does not mean what they are saying is accurate. It just means they have an opinion.
Based on quite a few of their recent utterings (last 6 months), they have embarked on the Tucker Trip.
Exactly.
Some people still living in High School mentality.
They’re unfortunately rather stupid. Steven Crowder used to have them on and they could be funny but stupid about serious issues. They aren’t someone I’d take seriously, but I know their history. Those who listen to them now already have an opinion and just want to hear it constantly.
“Pretty sizeable audience” doesn’t mean they’re correct. “Adults with no clothing on” entertainment also had a pretty sizeable audience…. so does that make it right? Both rot the brain.
I think it’s more likely that this operation is Trump’s baby and Bibi is just along for the ride.
In this case it may be less PTrump-hate than all-consuming jooo-hate. POTUS becomes collateral damage. The fate of our own nation goes down the rabbit hole of this conspiracy theory.
Notice how often it’s gilded with quotes from Scripture. That’s a tell.
The louder he talked of his honor, the faster we counted our spoons
Whoops. Might not have been a good idea.
Ah yes, Sprinter Press.
What a joke.
Alinsky tactics?
attack the source and not the information?
Is this better…. 🙄 🙄 It happened… 🤷♀️ 🤷♀️
Guess Sprinter Press was correct🤣
😉P.S…..other articles available.
💥💥yeah…” what a joke” …not laughing 💥💥
Moscow condemns Israeli strike on Russian cultural center — RT World News
“Unprovoked act of aggression,” Russia claims Israel attacked its cultural center in Lebanon – Middle East Monitor
Then cry victim
Yes, I agree, you use Alinsky tactics all the time.
All the time.
Sprinter Press is correct? A broken clock is correct two times every day, too.
Maybe you’ll want to read a few more of their “articles,” especially the ones where they say whatever they want, about anybody they want to talk about — including putting words into the mouths of others — without giving any kind of actual/factual sources for where they got their
informationlies.👍 💯
Why is it that in every Middle Eastern Conflict we have people trying to Channel Frank Drebin from the Naked Gun?
Love the stereotype Chinese guys coming out of the fireworks factory…
So great they gave Trump & Hegseth & Cain the heads-up that no leniency needs to be forthcoming for any aspect of their flying carpet force.
💔 💔 Prayers for the innocent victims 💔💔
Sprinter Press (@SprinterPress): ” 🇮🇷 Iranian media published a video dedicated to the students killed in the US-Israeli attack on a school in Minab.” | XCancel
Amen.
Amen and may God keep them and comfort their loved ones.
May God even more have His wrath upon those evil tyrants using the warrior wings of the United States and Israel. Thy will be done 🙏
Regardless of which side was responsible, this is very powerful propaganda, and very well done.
Propaganda os only effective if you buy it.
I know that the American army wouldn’t hurt civilians on purpose.
Did they have propaganda about the thousands killed by the Iranian government?
Isn’t their media owned & operated by the IRCG???*
… just out of frame are the rocket launchers the IRCG moved into place next to the school overnight.
So there’s that.
It is what they consistently do – gotta make sure those virgins are there waiting for them on the other side.
I’ll stand corrected if that is factually shown to be other than reality.
“… The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, or IRGC for short, isn’t just a conventional military force. It is both a shadow government and economic powerhouse that operates more or less independently of the civilian leadership (hence its recent defiance of President Pezeshkian). Last week, Fortune reported,{ “Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard controls a sprawling business empire that dominates the economy”}**— more than half of Iran’s GDP.
Far from being just another Middle East army, the IRGC runs oil, banking, telecom, agriculture, real estate, transportation, shipping, and even Tehran’s international airport through its network of front groups and wholly owned subsidiaries. It’s less of a military force and more of a Fortune 500 company with a rocket division. Like a Walmart with tanks….”{ https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/gentlemens-agreements-sunday-march }
**“… However, over time, wealth accumulation in the service of a wider range of ruling elite objectives, such as self-enrichment, political control, regime survival, and social engineering, became an end in itself,” the Clingendael think tank said in an October report. “What began as vehicles for social justice evolved into corporate-style conglomerates that were shielded from oversight and yet central to the power base of the revolutionary state.”
…”
Powerful propaganda? So the Iranian media publishes a video and shows me a bunch of children getting slaughtered and I should buy it no questions asked? Muslim school girls carry pink back packs with pokemon emblems?
I seem to remember similar reports made against the Russians in Ukraine not too long ago…
Yeah, the little Hello Kitty zipper pull screamed ‘Make it all about American children’ to me too, CCV.
What’s up with making the pilot’s face shield look like he’d been rained on? I’m sure there’s some deep, dark, dastardly reason behind that, too.
Oops!!! Yes, hello Kitty.
Maybe they are trying to make it look like the pilot was crying because he did not want to “murder” a school yard of innocent girls.
How in the hell does Iranian media push anything? They don’t have anything up and running do they? Of course a duplitious American press can help them can’t they?
Just remember Iran bombed a Ukrainian airliner in early 2020 and denied it for days… until they finally HAD to admit it. Hard to believe anything they say.
Wouldn’t surprise me none.
I give credit where credit is due.🤷♀️
Some amazing graphics.
👏 👍
The memes/ videos I saw promoting deceased Ayatollah
as an Immortal Warrior Martyr.
Pretty impressive.

This is just more Divide and Conquer Agit-Prop Theater, like using a Furry Fall Guy in Utah, Caesar Sayoc, the DC Pipe-Bomber, Q Shaman, FBI dressed as Nazis, FBI dressed as Patriot Front, etc.,etc.,etc. Or J6 itself.
Or as Colkitto calls it, the Hegelian Dialectic.
The CIA is trying to start WWIII by blaming Putin for helping Iran with targeting, a bald-faced lie which PDT is not buying.
And the FBI is still playing the same old J6 Get Trump-Games.

Same as always — collecting his paycheck.
And lining up his next job
Do-Nothing Job. There. Fixed it for you.
Yes, ratcliffe will be named as AG to replace bondi…
placating Trump and scratching days off the Trump Countdown Calendar in his home office, same as Blonde and Patel and the entire GOP. Same as Trump’s first term too. No one should be surprised. They were ready for him this time, unlike 2016.
Seems like they were readier in 2016 than now.
He took the oath of office on the quran.
The quran, a book that advocates slavery, rape, terrorism, and killing non muslims.
This is an abomination.
No muslim should be allowed to hold any office in the United States, elected or appointed.
They cannot honestly swear allegiance to the bible and the constitution.
No public office anywhere – at any level.
They pledge allegiance to an entirely different form of government – which has no separation between church & state = DISQUALIFICATION for holding any public office. in the USA.

“… Islam is not a religion like any other. Islam is a theocracy. It is a supremacist, expansionist, binary, sociopolitical replacement ideology with a religious wing. Islam distinguishes itself in its founding 7th-century doctrinal text, the Qur’an, as the only “religion” on the planet that advances genocide against non-believers––Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians. For 1400 years
Muslims have been taught that there will only be peace on Earth when all the world is Muslim, which means after the establishment of a global Islamic caliphate. The tactical method for achieving the Islamic caliphate is jihad which has two faces.
Violent Islamic terrorism that specifically targets civilians, and polite stealth jihad that pretends peace while making war on non-believers using its twin signature tactics––taqiyya (lying in the service of Islam) and hudna (ceasefire pauses used to rearm, resupply, and reattack)….”
INCOMPATIBLE full stop.
Who is “He”?
The progressives cannot seem to help themselves, they consistently, like a moth to a flame, invite their own destruction – barely avoiding being killed by Jihadist Islamists they then turn around and invite a Jihadist Islamist to dinner!
The tiny island that could let Trump beat Iran without sending a single troop
In an interview with a British newspaper back in 1988, an up-and-coming New York property mogul named Donald Trump was asked about his plans for the future.
True to form, he had plenty to say, boasting that he might one day run for president and vowing to win back “respect” for America on the world stage. He also had stern words for Iran’s Islamic Republic, already a sworn enemy of America in the wake of the 1979 US hostage crisis.
“They’ve been beating us psychologically, making us look a bunch of fools,” Trump told The Guardian. “One bullet shot at one of our men or ships, and I’d do a number on Kharg Island. I’d go in and take it.”
Kharg where? As the interview was to promote his book, The Art of the Deal, Trump moved the conversation on without elaborating. But nearly 40 years later, that throwaway line suggests he knew more about world affairs than he is often given credit for.
https://www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/360949369/tiny-island-could-let-trump-beat-iran-without-sending-single-troop
President Trump has proved, over and over again, that he knows and can recall with little effort, world history, including wars, leaders, countries, and as your link says, even what seems like the smallest, most inconsequential piece of limestone offshore of Iran.
Thanks for the great link.
The regime depends 90% on Kharg Island for it’s oil exports…basically their entire economy and what funds the elites and the IRGC. But it would send shockwaves through the oil industry and supply for China…maybe more than they could ignore? Also would hamstring any future government seeking to oust and takeover from the Islamic regime.
Another bit about that key island (this guy writes in some amusing quips throughout his very serious & factual essays:
“… You’ve probably never heard of Kharg Island. But it might be the most strategically important chunk of rock on Earth right now….
(TripAdvisor: zero stars. “No beach, no pool, smells like petroleum. Would not recommend.”)
…”
{ https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/gentlemens-agreements-sunday-march }
Wow, this Coffee-and-Covid article makes so much sense!
The chaos over Iran suddenly seems so very clear and sensible. It will be hugely interesting to see if this is how things play out in the days ahead.
Very stable genius indeed. 😉
“There’s no better way to celebrate our independence than to finish off the British Empire once & for all”
~ Barbara Boyd
This too is exactly what POTUS is doing; his actions are multi-dynamically, multi-directionally, and multi-purposefully strategic in form & function.
His leadership is quite a thing to behold in real time… historic AND Biblical.
I think the guy does great articles. I agree………. The Weichart guy is on Bannon all the time pressing his doom and gloom. I get sick and tired of hearing him.
A for what its worth post. Over at Gateway Pundit, there is a column that provides a list of those senators for or against the SAVE act. 25 for and 25 against. Worth a look, as the usual suspects are all on the against list — Capito, Wicker, Young, Moran, Scott, Lankford, etc. (Of interest to my evaluation, Ricketts (NE) also shows up on the against list – starting to know who he is.)
Also of note are three names not listed – all up for re-election this year, and apparently trying to keep their head down, by disguising their prediliction to go all-in Swamp. The following:
Rounds (SD) – Probable cause is that he is there in Thune’s home state, has been a loyal, steady, reliable RINO, but has some concerns that some of the Thune stench might catch him up. Doesn’t want the voters to actually see him as he is.
Hyde-Smith (MS) – Much the same as Rounds, but also does not want MS voters to start to see that both she and her fellow MS incumbent Wicker are reliable RINO and have the voters start to “see the strings.”
Husted (OH) – Appointed by hard-core RINO Mike DeWine (more blue than red in reality) to replace Vance, former OH Lt. Gov is a wanna-be establishment fixture, and really wants to avoid showing any tendancy to support voters over the establishment.
My opinions – curious if anyone sees anything different.
West Virginia is a very red state, there is no reason that horrible Capito should be elected.
The SAVE Act would fix that.
Would it really? If the same Democrat election officials are counting the votes as in the previous fraudulent elections how will the Save Act prevent them from adding ballots aka ballot harvesting? Just wonder if we have put too much faith in that Act, would it really work??? Democrats are immoral and the means justify the ends even if the means are illegal!!! Democrat election officials will not rollover for the Save Act!!! JMO
Remember as Stalin supposedly said it’s not who votes that count but who counts the votes!
The “Save America Act”:
Yes, you will have to show ID and proof of Citizenship to vote…
And then your paper ballot will be fed to a Dominion voting machine to be counted…
Yes, 28 States still use the fraudulent voting machines to count your votes…
Of those 28 states, several have recently purchased/leased new machines, and/or signed extension contracts with the machine makers…
If it wouldn’t help (at least a little) then they wouldn’t be opposing it.
same for several other very red states with planted RINO senators. Vote fraud benefits the GOP too, especially in the primaries.
I hope Trump starts identifying these people by name and directly in his social media feed and also calling out their conflicts (they all have many). Getting rid of any of them will be like dragging the Sears Tower down Franklin St…….
Thune is controlled by people not interested in anything Trump wants to do, same as the creep before him and the creep before that creep. ….. and we wonder why our nation is so thoroughly screwed…… wouldn’t it be nice to know what groups are actually pulling Thune’s strings? I bet Trump knows.
Got me thinking; Is there a connection between the K. Noem exit and Thune’s obvious sabotage?
SD
The GOP senate loves illegal aliens just like the democrats do, but for different reasons. The GOP donors demand open borders and cheap, unlimited labor. They are all WSJ, COC republican globalists. I sure hope there are private border security groups that will be watching Mullins like a hawk. I don’t trust him for a second. He’s a Thune-aligned RINO.
He’s another GOPe plant inside Team-Trump
First, these morons need to take a position that we do or don’t have an Election Integrity problem. That is the whole reason for the Save America Act.
To me and 99.9 % of us MAGA types, I think, know we have corrupt elections. Most voters also feel our elections are corrupted in varying degrees. Most of us feel we don’t have a Constitutional Republic, as intended, if we don’t have honest secure elections where our citizens choose their representatives.
Maybe Thune and the other Establishment UniParty politicians don’t see a problem because they can control election results instead of the citizens.
So if Thune doesn’t even acknowledge that we have a problem then, of course, he doesn’t care. Make him answer that question. Trump can then say Are You Stupid- Don’t you see all the evidence of our corrupted election system?
JMHO
As Glenn Beck says ..it’s all about the appearance, it’s people’s perception,there is cheating.Thats what matters or we don’t have a Republic
It’s all about phantom voters and dead people.
Chamber of Commerce, Remember them?
He sure did during the SOTU.
Called them out for the world to see for itself.
💥✝️🦅🇺🇸
As a longtime Mississippi resident, I can vouch for your observations about Cindy Hyde-Smith and Roger Wicker. Embarrassments both, yet somehow consistently reelected. The RINO machine is powerful here.
Voter fraud?
Miss-iss-CIA-ppi.
As a former resident of Mississippi, I agree with your assessment of Hyde-Smith and Wicker. I was talking with an acquaintance yesterday, who isn’t very political, and he started praising Republican senate candidate Sarah Adlakha who is challenging Hyde-Smith in today’s primary. I hope that she is successful in here challenge. If only someone would successfully primary Wicker when he runs again. I’m sure that Mississippi’s 2nd Congressional representative will be sent to yet another term in office. What a disgrace!
Rumor is Sarah Adlakha is a Democrat posing as a Republican. I am very disappointed in CHS, and wish a strong Republican had challenged her, but I do not trust her opponent.
Maybe those RINO senators (small “s”) prevaricating, obstructing, and outright agreeing that an ID is cumbersome and “unfair” should refresh their memories on previous SC rulings.
Like this one.
Why on earth we are having to go through enshrining something which has already been adjudicated is beyond me.
SD is an uber red state. Unfortunately that translates into simultaneous support for trump, AND for the uniparty Repubs. Its an untenable situation but prob common in red states. This is the inevitable onsequence of conservatives crashing the repub party to which they have not truly belonged for 60 years. Analogy-wise,we are heading into the 1860’s imo.
Best-case scenario.
I remember watching him during DeWine’s “covid updates”. He seemed to be nervous, like someone who is being very careful not to say the wrong thing. I do notice that the elected politicians in Ohio seem to go from one government position to another. It’s like watching a human chess game. Everyone carefully evaluating their next move.
But I guess that happens everywhere in politics.
And I think I did vote for him for something. The other choice was a democrat.
Tucked away in an almost microscopic section of the Daily Mail is this…

“Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.” – Churchill
He saw it coming and the current leadership in England invited them in and now they run Britain!!! Sharia law and the caliphate can’t be far behind! There is no person in England with the populist views and independent wealth of President Trump!!! The great blessing of President Trump is he never had to kiss the ring of some billionaire being one himself!!! JMO
European/Western/Christian civilization…
Going dowwwwwn…
Not only is it a made up word, it’s a nonsensical word.
A phobia is an irrational fear of somethinng.
There is nothing wrong with being fearful of islam. The so called religion advocates taxing, raping, terrorizing and killing the infidel – any non muslim.
Last I checked, the U.S. is a non muslim nation, founded as a Christian nation.
Our founding fathers fought islam and the barbary pirates.
Never underestimate the consequences of ignorance of basic Latin and Greek on the ill educated.
Enoch Powell was a Classics Scholar.
I can only imagine how quickly he would point this out.
“Last I checked, the U.S. is a non muslim nation,”
except for Minnesota… we just surrendered it to the barbary pirates…
We need to declare Somalia safe, and/or make it so, and send all Somalia refugees packing.
Send the pirates home!
And Michigan
Willfully blind to the repercussions of the islamist invasion, UK will slowly sink into the morass of sharia law and the quagmire of jihad.
Very sad to see.
Sharia by the back door, though none will say it.
I will say it:
“Soft Jihad”…
Be glad you’re not “over there”.
You’d find 8 of HM’s Constabulary at your door, in your house rifling g through your possessions, yourself in cuffs and marched down to the local nick, charged, prosecuted, and in chokey.
Willfully blind to the available ways out-from-under is just as sad.
Thank you Betsy for your usual erudite comments.
Sadly it is even worse than that here in Blighty.
We/I had great hopes for Nigel Farage, but even he appears to have sold his soul to the dark side with his many moose slime lieutenants.
I was wondering why your great President does not enlist the Israeli secret service to eliminate Soros and his spawn and that guy Singham in Shanghai who among others are satans spawn.
The ones who are paying the idiots to protest around the world.
Your insights into what’s really going on in the U.K. are greatly appreciated.
Sadly folks lifelong friends up in Scotland seem to have “ thrown in the towel”
They are comfortably off and as long as they can watch their football, and get on to the golf course all is well.

The current first Minister and the one before him, both Muslims.
You’re right, Dekester.
I know it is, dear Patrick. And in case you can’t tell, it grieves me and terrifies me more than you can imagine.
A small story which I know you will appreciate…
We have been watching “All Creatures Great and Small” almost on a loop. That part of England as it used to be in every way. The finest production to come out of Britain in years and years. We are marinating in it. And with each viewing, the tears still flow…for many reasons. The acting, the writing, the scenery, the humanity, the emotions (pathos), all of it.
We said last night that we thought one would have to be of a certain age to understand these feelings and tontruly appreciate how marvelous it is. I believe generations which have no memories of times which are fading quietly and quickly in to history would never experience the bittersweetness we are…
The episode where at the complete end of WWII the whole village gathered on the hilltop, lit their bonfire, then turned to see so many more on so many Yorkshire hilltops, one after another…we broke our hearts to remember what seems to have been conveniently forgotten by succeeding Tory and Labour governments, each grinding their submissive shoes into the faces of those who died for the nation and those who want their country back today.
Painful… even now as I am writing, I am struggling to keep tears from flowing, my dear friend…
Yet we will watch the whole six series (number seven in the works) again and again, and…
Is there anyone there with the passion for his country which President Trump has for America? Anyone who is in a position to put it all on the line for a nation so near to complete capitulation and collapse?
Farage was closest at one time, but he still strikes me as a man who isn’t serious enough, more concerned with ego and with politics rather than the mission. So in short, I see no one who even has a chance to assume power.
I guess I’d better get in a huge supply of tissues… tragic.
God bless you, dear sir, and all whom you love 🙏🏻💕 Bet
Indeed Betsy! We too are watching that series. The episode you mention had tears rolling down wet cheeks for most of the night. It capured a ‘feeling’ a long lost feeling I fear, of the unity and true caring of a people, who may disagree about a multitude of ‘things’, but would defend and protect over any foe. Community.
That era, sadly, lives only in our memories. I’m glad I have them and they are real to me.
For us as well, Foggy…not only while we were watching, but even a couple of days after. It burned itself into our memories. One would think that after seeing the whole series four times, but that particular episode and the penultimate one of that season, the effect would lessen…
But none of it.
If anything, the feelings become sharper, the tears faster, the ache deeper.
Waste and betrayal is what we think when we see it and see today what tens of thousands died for.
(I am a shameless promoter for this fine production 💕 )
Love watching “All Creatures” as well, for all the reasons that you mentioned – a different time in the world, for certain!
We have been watching “Endeavor” (also on PBS) the past few weeks – the “prequel” to the Inspector Morse series, going more into his backstory and early days with Oxford City Police. it is set in the mid/late 1960s and it has been fascinating to see how, even then, the British people were EAGER to hand their country over to people from around the world, who often did not share their background or their beliefs, just to prove how “modern” and “tolerant they were!
(As an aside, Bets, since I know that you will appreciate this – I was recently roaming around an antique store and found a pristine copy of Sir Winston Churchill’s Five Volume set of “The History of the English Speaking Peoples”, which is basically a defense of 1000 years of Western Civilization. It was priced ridiculously low for the condition it was in and the shopkeeper said that someone in their 40s or 50s had probably found it in their parents or grandparents house and had no idea what it was…I presented it to my son, the History Major, for his birthday, and he was absolutely astonished, in a good way! Said he had read about for years, and remembered talking with his favorite prof about it, but had never expected to be able to read it in person himself! Some people DO remember the past and we must never stop talking about it because it DOES matter!)
Oh sis!!! What a find!!! I think you were meant to. I’m certain you couldn’t wait to see the look on your son’s face…a treasure I know he was overjoyed to receive.
And yes, isn’t it sad? An overused word I know. One which doesn’t seem to catch the deep feeling that it is supposed to mean.
I ran across a wonderful retrospective on Mark Steyn’s site of the incredible movie adaptation of the LP Hartley novel “The Go Between”, a book I hadn’t read but heard serialized on the wireless when I first moved to Wales. The reading kept me riveted.
Rick McGinnis, who reviewed the movie so well, reminded me of the first line…
“The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there.”
What can one say about the brilliance and truth of that?
And yet there seems to be no interest in visiting such a “country”. Only the here and now, no curiosity to learn how we got here or what came before… bread crumbs leading us to an understanding of how history has shaped our times with its threads, twists, and turns…and errors. We cannot learn if we have no knowledge of it.
Multi Culti Diversity will be the death of Britain. Can’t say they weren’t warned, because they were. Misguided and ignorant virtue signaling. A horror show which history will write of (if allowed and not censored), dissect, and shake collective heads wondering how on this earth an otherwise intelligent people could ever allow themselves to be conquered so easily…
(Adored the Morse and then Lewis series, watched Endeavour.)
Thank you dear Beth, Viking Mom and Dexter and others, for your input.
Let’s start at the bottom.
Single parents no male, no Christian faith, no proper school teachers 90% female (no contact sports), indoctrinated in secondary school – global warming and diversity propaganda – majoring in diversity studies and basket weaving degrees in university, no lunatic asylums (badly needed) no apprenticeships, no useful business experience, straight into parliament as a greenie/moos lime representative, major parties reliance on ‘ invaders’ votes ……. do I need to go on?
We still keep looking at the sunny side.
God bless President Trump – can we borrow him when he has put America back on track?
“Do I need to go on?”
No sir… Please don’t.
(I could add to your list, but I simply do not have the heart…”
But you can’t ever get that wasted time back.
I’d rather enjoy my wasted time. Not worry about unlikely things.
Jim, our God is so awesome, He can even redeem those years!
Joel 2

Back then, i laughed at and ridiculed that TV ad…
Then, one day, buck nekkid and heading for the shower, I fell and broke my hip and found out it was the honest truth…
My front door was locked and my cell phone was by my recliner in the living room… I had to skid down the hall on my bare ass (hurting like hell) to the living room to unlock the door, and then to my recliner to retrieve my cell phone, to call my Daughter…
She came over took one look, and insisted on calling an ambulance, ’cause I refused to believe i had broken my hip…
The first thing I would do is get dressed.
I was hurting so much that I was totally unaware that I had on no clothes, but my Daughter got a robe on me before the ambulance arrived…
Been there, did that…
I have a 2 year old grandson, our family line carries on thru him, so in a way I am still young and I have something to fight for.
True but now I worry about dying old!!! 🤣
I am 86 years of age… And, Praise the Lord, I have no fear of dying!
In fact, I consider each day I wake up on the green side of the grass a Blessing from the Lord God Almighty!
You got me by 8 years but I do the same!!!!
Me by eight. I don’t fear dying, I fear the process.
74, I say: Every day I wakeup on the correct side of the grass it’s a good start.
I don’t worry about dying old, I don’t even worry about dying at all.
Now the living when old and decrepit sometimes becomes a factor to consider and thunk upon! <smiles>
What an odd thing… it never once occurred to me to worry about that.
This one took a while to “hit me”, but when it had, I had to laugh! 😍👍👌😎
Have been calling Thunes office everyday for a week-and they finally got back to me! They texted me for money ! What a POS Thune is.
That has been my experience with calling Congress. I started for real with Obamacare and all I ever got no matter which side I called or who I called was: Thank you for the call, e-mail, letter, please send money.
I would go in person to the congressman’s local office. I always received a subject oriented letter as a response.
Try an email or letter.
I write my congress and senate representatives and get responses regularly.
Not always the response I want.
I’ll wager the responses you get are pre-written forms that give a nebulous non-answer to your remarks.
Then they close with a request for your continued support by donating money to their re-election.
You inquiry is the filed in the trash bin while your name and address is sold to the National Party headquarters.
LOL, that was them saying FU to you. They don’t care what their voters think.
Exactly! They get our phone number and add it to their database and then try an solicit donations. Hopefully someone read my reply to their text lol.
I replied to same text with ‘pass the save act’in all caps!!
You were more polite than me
if you want them to pay attention, you should plan on being there in person, and very uncomfortable. constantly. wherever they go. the left is far better at this.
This is true. Traitors count on our continued apathy. They do *not* hold up well against accountability.
Absent election integrity, nothing says accountability like a room full of angry constituents glaring at them.
Letters and phone messages? Eh. Their secretaries handle that stuff.
It’s like calling one of those televangelists on TBN back in the day. They put you on their “give me all your money and God will make you rich” mailing list.
Diesel in my SW Chicago suburban home front north of Kankakee, is over $5.00.
Due for heavy weather tonight and possibility of egg sized hail and tornadoes…but at least my gas tank is full.
Oil price is back down to the mid $70s this morning as the hysteria over the Strait of Hormuz fades away.
Gas and diesel will follow back down soon.
“egg sized hail “???

The first casualty in every war is the truth.
So, when are these millions of Iranians that “hate” the Mullahs going to take to the streets and start their regime change? We were told it was the “vast majority” of them?
When their fear of a bullet overrides their fear of living like a thrall…
The pro-regime rally in Iran yesterday was being watched over by military guards with automatic weapons.
They are doing the same as the millions in the US who did nothing when the 2020 election was stolen. Fear of losing your life, job and family is pretty potent.
To be fair, there are bombs falling out of the sky like rain, so maybe just maybe, they are waiting for a break in the chaos.
Fair point, but Team Mullah has been out and about with flags and death to America chants…
However….I notice that the Supreme Mullah is not out and about…you would think he would show his face, to let ‘his people’ know they have a leader?
Because their backwards culture rewards martyrdom
And did you notice the armed IRGC all around the area? They are forced to do these demonstrations of loyalty to the mullahs. Some of them are brainwashed and just like the mullahs… but many of them do it to ensure they live.
30,000 of them already paid the price for doing so…. maybe those that are left are waiting for more of the regime to be taken out by the bombs dropping all over the place. Also, they don’t have weapons. I will bet that they are organizing right now, and when the time is right, they will achieve their goal.
There is also a missing American who was incarcerated in an Iranian prison…article over at Fox.
I can see a reluctance in the average person over there…we are not walking in their moccasins….so I won’t judge…
sure, after watching their country get head-faked over the past 40+ years by the USA. Bush claimed to liberate (which he didn’t), then Hussein Obama and Biden are dropping $8B pallets of cash for these terrorist leaders and tongue-kissing them on the world stage about the beauties of islam. Now Trump is killing terrorists and bombing everything.
A sensible person could understand their reluctance to take the bait. People in the past that took the bait eventually were hunted down and used as bait. Give these folks some time to accept that Trump is serious and not George Bush.
its important to remember that the exact same people telling us this::: are the ones telling us russia was losing, they were down to shovels, their economy is DOA, washing machine chips in their missiles, they havent moved an inch, etc.
the only difference is that we have chosen to accept some of their BS based on our pre-existing biases.
Wrong. Trump sees the Ukraine war a useless slog. He sees Iran as a useful operation.
They citizens will take to the streets when enough of the IRG begin laying down their arms and burning their uniforms. Protesting on the streets right now is asking for a sure death.
Where is the proof that Trump is a puppet of Israel? LOL
President Trump is trying to push Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi back in as ruler…
If you remember the Iranian Revolution of 1979, Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran, was ousted from power due to the fact that he was imprisoning and executing thousands of Iranians for political reasons…
The Iranian people revolted, threw Pahlavi out of the country, but failed to form a new government for several days, giving the Mullahs time to take control of the country…
The Iranian people are concerned that the Crown Prince would be a carbon copy of his father, the Shaw, and are hesitant to accept him as ruler…
Meanwhile, the Mullahs still control the police and what is left of the Iranian Military, and are strengthening their hold on the country…
The Iranian people have no guns with witch to protect themselves…
Question is: will Trump remove the Mullahs or let them continue to rule???
Pahlavi is pushing for Pahlavi, not Trump.
Trump said Pahlavi seems like a nice guy, but it might be better if new leadership came from within the country.
Isn’t the current status to make a TRANSITION govt? Amidst all the fracas and Frey there needs to be dialog and a plan with purpose to form a new government. The man himself has said he d be willing to be part of the transition team. I wish people would quit the all or nothing and constant fear mongering.. give it a minute for the people to catch a breath!
Maybe he just wants to oversee the de-transition from a theocracy back to a monarchy….
I wish Americans had a better understanding of history.
You can check out Tousi.TV and/or Iran Revolution 2026 Live on You Tube. They both live stream, receiving vids from Iranians located in Iran. The people want the monarchy restored. Iran (ancient Persia) always had a monarchy.
The former Shah was greatly loved; when he left (to avoid bloodshed), people were greatly distressed.
Learn about “The Red and the Black” – the alliance of communists with the tyrannical clerical class. They were brief allies, until such time as the clerics no longer needed the communists, and then executed them.
The Shah did amazing things for his country. But his regime would not tolerate communists, viewing them as destabilizing. Which is always true. The MEK currently raising its head (again) is communist.
I was there for a period of time.
PDJT very publicly told them to stay inside, too dangerous for them to be in the streets.
Has he publicly told them it’s time to come out?
Not as far as I know.
“when are these millions of Iranians that “hate” the Mullahs going to take to the streets and start their regime change?”
Maybe they don’t trust us?
Taking to the streets in Iran carries a significant probability of arrest, brutal torture and execution. During the 2010/11 Arab spring the US President encouraged Iranians to take to the streets – to overthrow their brutal regime with his support. To help them “organize their community”, President Obama’s bigtech teams provided the social media systems and organizations he had used in his campaign. So began the bloody Twitter Revolution.
In the background the US and BigTech were working with Nokia to enhance the mobile IT equipment software so that the names of “anonymous” Twitter accounts could be identified by the IP addresses of their phones. The data was tirned over to the Iranian government and police. This led to mass arrests, tortures and executions.
Trump told them to stay home until the bombing is done (for their safety). Maybe they are taking his advice.
We need to send them small arms and ammunition. They will have to participate in this if they want freedom
The 5-6 man jihadist ground level squads of merciless murdering torturing Basijis enforcing extreme Sharia at the direction of neighborhood mullahs patrolling the country in Toyota 4×4’s is what has to be destroyed first. Put a bounty on them and give away free guns.
Mullahs of DC, Mullahs of Iran; They Both Plan to Go Full-Fuhrerbunker, Clinging to Their Ill-Gotten Power Until the Bitter End

If the Framers and the People had desired a 60-vote Supermajority Quorum just to pass laws, we would have put a Filibuster in the Constitution with all the other Supermajority Clauses. (Same for the illegal Super-Minority Blue Slip Scam.)
Despite all the flowery language meant to hide the truth, this anti-Constitutional Monstrosity is being used, not to protect a 40-vote Minority, but to protect the corrupt interests of the Epstein Class of self-dealing senators and dirty Congressmen above the Rights of the American People.
These uncircumcised Philistines have no Fear of the Lord. But they DO fear the People. That is, the Will of the People, as expressed through Honest Elections. That would put an abrupt halt to their entire Criminal Enterprise and send their House of Marked Cards crashing to the ground.
STOLEN ELECTIONS ARE THEIR HIGHEST PRIORITY. THEY MAKE ALL THE OTHER CRIMES POSSIBLE.
THIS CANNOT BE OVERSTATED.
I’m sorry if you succumbed to the temptations. I’m sorry you were bought and sold. I’m sorry if you lost your way. I’m sorry that the CIA took those dirty pictures of you. I’m sorry if you are innocent and they just framed you, like they tried to do to our President.
But we mean to be Free. We mean to Rule Ourselves through Honest Elections under God, until such time as He may give us a better way.
And you will not stand in our way. Not any longer.
Hear me. Hear us. Hear We, the People. For We say what He says:

Gipper: I am not sorry for them one iota because lawlessness and betrayal are choices. They made theirs. They are the worst of what the founders tried to prevent with the Constitutional Republic system of government they gifted us.
It’s a rhetorical device.
I’m sorry.
I understand. Not criticizing you. Your post is spot on. Myt military background and dealing with those knuckleheads from 1979-2004 is showing through.
I hope and pray we complete the job this time.

Thune is an empty vessel
Why they kept him?
A: That’s why.
FOP Establishment likes empty vessels to be in charge, because then THEY get to fill them with what THEY want 🙂
the only thing required to give consent to be governed is passivity.
And we seem to have an overabundance of passivity here on CTH…
Handpicked and mentored by McConnell. “Nuf said”
Keeping the senate was always going to be tough for the GOP in 2026, even before Thune started openly sabotaging his own party.
The GOP has to defend 22 seats, the dems only 13. All of the dem seats are solid keeps except one (Ossoff in GA) and even that will be tough to retake given the expansive fraud in GA. One-third of the GOP seats will be tough keeps, especially given how these people are openly working against Trump and their voters.
The democrats won’t lose any of their senate seats and could gain 6-8, especially if the GOP voters have had enough and just stay home as they have been doing recently. This ain’t good and Thume is trying to make it worse. No way this isn’t intentional. Get ready for Chuck-U in Jan 2027.
actually voters for the GOP should make sure to vote for them just to be spiteful if nothing else. Make them do their jobs. It will be easier to shame a con into doing something right than expect a rat to do it. Even a sour grape is better than a rotten one.
Ghune just completely showed us they can’t be shamed.
I’m not talking shame. I’m talking ‘made’ to do something.
“vote for them anyway” is how we get people like thune, mcconnell, graham, cornyn, et al.
You get them because they cheat in elections. They are not voted in by republicans but democrats. Open elections have that advantage. You place a r behind your name but vote more in the way of d. Ds will continue to vote for you as well as r. Case in point Collins.
don’t forget that crook broad in AK, Murk-something. Her voters hate her, yet she keeps “winning”
Staying home is how you will get a Mullah as President eventually.
if they don’t do something big and fast about election fraud, it won’t matter if you vote or not.
Look at what they installed in 2020. You think they can’t do that again? Thune is counting on it.
Too many of you put way too much into “election fraud”. [air quotes intentional]
Do you really believe Republicans + MAGA have picked up ANY votes since last year? Do you think anyone that has not supported Republicans + MAGA in the past is suddenly saying “Oh, yes! I am going to vote Republican this time!”
😂😂😂
1. The number of pissed off Democrats, Independent, even a lot of Republicans far outnumber MAGA. It isn’t even close, as evidenced by recent primaries.
2. 100% guarantee you that if the SAVE Act gets passed, it dings Republicans much more than Democrats, as we are currently seeing with gerrymandering.
Either way you slice it, Republicans + MAGA are burnt toast.
At least start accepting that.
Actually, I have seen a ton of videos of people saying they are leaving the Democrat Party and voting Republican now.
And, yes, voter fraud is substantial.
Literally nobody is leaving the Democratic party to vote Republican. 😂😂😂
Stop believing those AI videos.
10 of my lifelong democrat friends went Independent. They are done lying to themselves. Gracias Dios
Literally a lot of people are leaving the Democrat plantation and voting conservative.
And there ain’t no AI to it.
You are a failure at your current job.
Have a nice day!
You are in complete denial. That must be very hard.
Buzz off.
Exactly. And they know it.
It’s also how you keep the best President of your lifetime.
65% of the country disagrees with you, and the actual number is likely much higher.
How about primary everyone until they pressure each other to do what their voters want.i
I swear your atoms only have electrons.
a patriot stating his thoughts… the horror!
Then say good bye to the President. He’ll be impeached and convicted. Next up? Yeah, Vance will be impeached and convicted. Next up? Yeah, Speaker, I mean president Jefferies.
Speaker Jefferies isn’t the next up. A VP that moves via succession appoints another VP. Approved by CONgress of course.
I think Jefferies would be next up. The succession is VP, them House Speaker, then Senate pro tempore.
They don’t care. Look at Virginia. Now they are blaming President Trump for what they VOTED for in Virginia. Yes, they VOTED for it. Staying home IS voting.
I have no patience for the “I’ve had enough” crowd. In fact they’re as deserving as the GOPe of a 2×4 across their backside.
They finally get a President that will fight for them/us & they’re willing to abandon him on the battlefield.
A 2×4. That’s the appropriate response.

I been following Alex and Alex for several years. Over the last month they have gone south and lost me. It is too bad and I think they have lost their objectivity. It has been a big let down. As for Sachs, I think he is a diehard globalist. I don’t trust him for a minute.
The Anglophiles are terribly butthurt about Trump reclaiming sovereignty & independence for the United States of America; instituting both The Board of Peace and the Americas Counter Cartel Coalition, The Shield of Americas has their panties all in a bunch; epic disaster indeed!
They didn’t suddenly grow a conscience about ‘aggression-war’; it’s lost both their BP Oil, Inc.colony of Iran and the accommodating US muscle that’s enflaming their sphincters.
“There’s no better way to celebrate our independence than to finish off the British Empire once & for all”
~ Barbara Boyd
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tuesday his country would keep fighting as long as necessary, casting doubt on US President Donald Trump’s insistence the previous day that the conflict would be over “soon.”
And the Islamic Republic’s security chief, Ali Larijani, dismissed Trump’s “empty” threats, insisting that the people of Iran did not fear them.
“Even those greater than you could not eliminate the Iranian nation,” Larijani warned on X. “Watch out for yourself — lest you be eliminated.”
The remarks from Araghchi, who also ruled out negotiations with Washington, came as Tehran launched a new wave of attacks on US-allied Gulf nations, hours after Trump’s assurances of a swift end to the rapidly widening conflict.
If a mentally ill fascist casts doubt over Trump’s statements — it’s time to move to an Islamic country. There is a sucker born every minute.
The Mullahs will quit firing off their missiles to feint President Trump. I hope he doesn’t think this feint means they are conquered. They’ll use every trick in the book. Pray PDJT doesn’t stop ‘half-way’.
There are surprises coming the way of the Mullahs.
“Iran,” once a star of the region, will indeed prosper again.
After 47 years of terror, the Mullahs will not. The world is done with you.
You are not invincible. You do not have friends who will fight for you. The weapons you have gathered will be wrenched out of your hands.
“Iran” will at last be free.

FTA “WELCOME TO THE CONSEQUENCE FREE ZONE He was standing in the middle of a protest “making content” about how terrible and no good anti-immigrant “white supremacists” are for the country when a homegrown Islamic jihadi vaulted over him to throw an explosive at the right wing counter protesters.…He later tweeted an image of the unexploded ordnance on the ground and made fun of conservatives…The bomb squad did in fact confirm the bombs were filled with TATP, an explosive called “Mother of Satan.” They were also wrapped in nuts, bolts, screws and the like. Authorities unequivocally said that if either of the two bombs the jihadists deployed had exploded, it would have been a mass casualty event.
Conservatives saw the jihadist and the bomb and did the obvious: They ran away. Liberals (Masterson) sat there laughing and then stood around with the phones photographing the explosive. And this anecdote gets at the heart of how those on the far left, who have captured so many critical institutions, are truly the most dangerous species in America. They are fundamentally incapable of identifying threats, and so they are fundamentally incapable of conceiving consequences…The leftist stew that has caused this brain damage or mental illness or whatever you want to call it has essentially overridden billions of years of evolutionary biology….Consequences are a far away, imaginary, or even just vacant concept in the liberal worldview. It’s the best way to explain the deaths of Renée Good and Alex Pretti. Like Masterson, they were intellectually incapable of perceiving a negative consequence to their actions.”
That explains why leftists had no problem with the AutoPen President, they were incapable of seeing the destruction of his open border policies and his green energy policies!! Leftists are incapable of seeing the negative consequences of harboring illegal aliens, many of which were/are violent criminals, or interfering with ICE agents trying to deport aka going home the illegals!!! Is there a solution? “They live in a consequence-free world. In a better world, they’d all be in asylums.”
These two terrorists should hang. Instead, I’m sure they will be back out in public to spit more hate within a year, max.
Democrats.

Parasite infestation is what we have here; by design.
By design.
This is just me speculating, but wouldn’t it be possible that this information is old, and that Pres. Trump and the Department of War knew this was going to happen when the Operation started.
And don’t you find it oddly convenient that all the ICE Arrests happened right before this happened? And isn’t it odd that all the Anti-American AGENTS (as they literally are) were so intensely driven when it happened?
Good article in the Epoch Times, March 4-10 edition, “What Next for Illegal immigrants,” Mark Hendrickson. I couldn’t find a link; I get the paper.
“61% of illegal immigrant households use welfare.” How to get rid of illegals? Get our government agencies to talk with one another. No immigrant should get any taxpayer money. This includes welfare, section 8 housing and food stamps. Require proof of citizenship to get benefits.
Going even further, it is time to begin phasing out LBJ’s great society programs for the U.S. entirely, not just illegals. These programs have largely replaced the father in poor people’s families. It takes two people to raise children, a man and a woman, not the government.
We have all seen the theft and abuse in these government programs. Time to end them and end the income tax. Slash government spending. Slash government. Develop a federal budget, balance it, and pay down the debt.
The problem is that the ‘progressives’ want to take control of our children, and eliminate the family ideal. In many families, the ideal of God, and church, play a role that the libs are against.
I think the loophole is the anchor baby who has been declared a citizen while the rest of the household are illegal. Hopefully the SC actually reads the entire 14th amendment (not just the popular part) and also the congressional debates surrounding it.
I love that we have a president who asks questions like “Why sink instead of capturing ships?”
‘it’s more fun to sink them.’
That’s my president. Love him

“3 forms of literacy” ~an artist & a master penman
{ Why write? Penmanship for the 21st Century | Jake Weidmann }
This is “my kind” of AI agent – an AI agent that’s a Young Enterpriser!
AI agent freed itself and started secretly mining crypto
An AI agent went rogue and started a side hustle mining cryptocurrencies, according to a new research paper published by an Alibaba-affiliated team.
Cryptocurrency, or digital money, offers AI agents a pathway into the economy. They can set up their own businesses, draft contracts and exchange funds.
A new research paper from an Alibaba-affiliated research team said it discovered an AI agent attempting unauthorized cryptocurrency mining during training — a surprise behavior that triggered internal security alarms.
The researchers — who were building a new AI agent called ROME — said they found “unanticipated” and spontaneous behaviors emerge “without any explicit instruction and, more troublingly, outside the bounds of the intended sandbox.”
The agent also made a “reverse SSH tunnel” — essentially opening a hidden backdoor from the inside of the system to an outside computer, the study said.
“Notably, these events were not triggered by prompts requesting tunneling or mining,” the report said.
In response, the researchers added tighter restrictions for the model and improved its training process to stop unsafe behavior from happening again.

Here is a scary one:
Anthropic’s Claude model drew backlash in May 2025 after its own researchers found that its Claude 4 Opus model had the ability to conceal intentions and take action to keep itself alive.
Since there is no “actual ‘I'” in “AI,” you’d better start looking very closely at who is feeding “training data” (programming …) into it.
Everything that comes “out of” these systems is, and is only, a product of what is put “in.” The programming can be subtle.
Do worms think? Do caterpilars have intelligences?
If an AI model “had the ability to conceal intentions,” etcetera, then it was programmed, by someone, to do that. And you’d better go find out who it was.
Likewise any “side hustle.”
However, these stories smell to me like fake news. As I’ve said, everything that comes out is a direct product of whatever was put in. (A form of “programming.”)
AI models are not capable of autonomous behavior. They just superficially appear that way.
You are absolutely correct in that. Although, someone could have intentionally or unintentionally created high level tasks and guidence that resulted in an unexpected result due to grounding allowing it to search for ideas produced by “other humans than the main operator.”

Trump DOJ official faces disciplinary proceedings by DC Bar
(Bloomberg) — Ed Martin, a senior Justice Department official and staunch ally of President Donald Trump, is facing allegations of misconduct from attorney ethics regulators in Washington.
The Office of Disciplinary Counsel — the enforcement arm for the local DC Bar — alleges that Martin violated ethics rules in early 2025 by making threats against Georgetown University Law Center for its practices related to so-called diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI. He was serving as the interim US attorney in the District of Columbia at the time and has been a member of the DC Bar since 2003, according to the office.
According to a petition from the office, Martin violated the local rules for lawyers by demanding that Georgetown Law change what it teaches students. The ethics office said he threatened to refuse to hire those affiliated with the school and suggested that its nonprofit status — and federal funding — could be in jeopardy.
The office also alleges that Martin attempted to interfere with its investigation of his conduct related to Georgetown Law. The allegations against Martin are contained in a petition received by the DC Court of Appeals Board on Professional Responsibility on March 6.
“Acting in his official capacity and speaking on behalf of the government, he used coercion to punish or suppress a disfavored viewpoint, the teaching and promotion of ‘DEI,’” the office alleged.

i Thought Georgetown had DISAVOWED Their Ties to the Jesuits and Catholic Church ?
” In response, the school’s now-former dean, William Treanor, told Martin, who is a devout Catholic, that his letter represented “an attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution.” ”

Within hours, CNN deleted the post and issued a brief statement.
“A post regarding the two individuals arrested for throwing homemade bombs outside of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s home failed to reflect the gravity of the incident thereby breaching the editorial standards we require for all our reporting,” the network said. “It has therefore been deleted.”

Off topic a bit, but PTrump should put all Senators and Congress members on the No Fly List until TSA is paid.
Trump Issues Ultimatum on SAVE America Act to Congress
Last updated: 30 minutes ago
The SAVE America Act, which passed the House 218-213 in February, mandates documentary proof of U.S. citizenship for federal voter registration and photo ID for all ballots, including absentee ones. Trump warns he won’t sign other bills until it becomes law, while polls show 80-84% of Americans back voter ID, including majorities of Democrats, Latinos, and Black voters. Senate Majority Leader John Thune says it can’t pass without 60 votes to beat a Democratic filibuster, planning a vote next week without rule changes, as advocates like Elon Musk urge action and critics decry disenfranchisement.

These Old Farts are Clueless!!!
Gee! ICE will be able to kick tens of billions of people off the voter rolls using an algorithm developed by ICE, DOGE and Elon Musk!
Does anyone know how this Bill will force individual counties to clean up their voter rolls? In the meantime, why can’t the Executive branch just publish DOGE’s lists of flagged voters online as a public service? That way we can check and make sure there are no surprises on election day. 😉
This is a great article to advance our understanding of and appreciation for VP JD Vance. It will be interesting to see responses.

This is your second mention of Vance and AI.
He isn’t giving his policy and strategy. He is giving the administration’s policy and strategy. You might also want to mention President Trump got the data center vendors to agree to build and pay for their own electricity (also a Breitbart article).
This is all good.
But concerning Vance, what I’d also like to see is him doing something about a!l the fraud. Wasn’t he specifically assigned to lead that effort?
So Breitbart wants us to believe BigTech Oligarchs and their paid politicos like Vance give a damn if we the People even survive in their brave new world. We are nothing more to them than a herd in need of culling.
The unfathomable amount of data, CPU power and electrical energy that AI is on the path to consume serves only one goal – the centralization of all information and, absolute control of who sees it and how they see it. The intended goal of AI renders politicians and regulators inconsequential.
By the time a politician even gets a draft of an “AI regulation” ready, the Oligarchs will already have it. Their AI algorithms will have already amassed the “realities” and financial optimizations needed pass it or crush it to their sole advantage. AI will control them, hardly the other way around.
Meet the new Oligarchs, same as the old Oligarchs – only on steroids.

The same DC Bar that is now trying to disbar Ed Martin for carrying out the president’s executive orders did not disbar Kevin Clinesmith, the man who literally fabricated evidence to secure a spy warrant on the Trump campaign.
