America isn't a democracy but a constitutional republic designed to limit majority rule and protect individual rights. This distortion enables narratives that label dissent as dangerous, especially in portraying Trump as a "threat to democracy" -- a claim pushed by institutions caught spreading falsehoods about him. What appears as consensus is actually assigned opinion enforced by media and political power, as "conspiracy theories used to silence dissent are proving to be true.

Ever wonder why progressives avoid beginning civic meetings with the flag salute? Because we pledge our allegiance to the flag…and to the Republic—not democracy—for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible… . That’s why.

We hold these truths to be self evident. (1) America was founded on a basic principle of equality of opportunity. Not equality of outcome. (2) Climate change is driven by the sun not human activity. (3) Nature divided us into two sexes - male and female. Genders belong strictly in a book of English grammar. (4) The primary purpose of the US Constitution is to restrain government not enable it.(5) There are raced based differences among people. Exploiting those for personal or political gain is racism - no matter the skin color of the person attempting it. (6) There has been no country in the history of human civilization like the United States - we are unique among nations.

well, he concludes the risk is a set of institutions, but I think it is narrower. Who ran the Autopen, who ordered the vote count to stop in the swing states, all at about the same time, on Election Night 2020? There are some key events like that which would be specific clued-in people. Who are they? Well, assuming these secrets are the crown jewels, it follows the Democrats are not going to annoy anybody who holds them. and in turn, anybody blamed for the lies around Biden, such as Jill, is definitely as passerby. The actual secret-holders are NOT being annoyed. Nobody able to retaliate in a key way, is being annoyed. Thus, Not Jill. Not Joe. Not that doctor. Anybody who is fingered for major blame, is not key. The stakes are way too high for anybody important to be put in a negative spotlight at this time. Is my opinion

Democrats don't believe in democracy. They still try to say Trump is illegitimate, even though he won the majority popular vote--something they always scream about vs the electoral college. Oh, he won that too. Blast from the past, Bigly! America is mostly center right, but leftists believe they are entitled to everything they desire. They tear down statues, tear up cities, destroy communities, kill babies, steal everything not nailed down, take over everything they didn't build, lie like dogs, and they think the rest of US should be okay with their evil.

The article was loaded with truth bombs, but its first sentence was my favorite. I’m getting really tired of the politicians and media personalities using the D word. It shouldn’t be used interchangeably with “republic.” Even worse, it’s being ubiquitously used in place of it by far too many of the ignorant or deceptive types.

Many pro-Israel people I know, both Jewish and non-Jewish, are deeply worried about Trump’s current Middle East positions. He’s marginalizing Israel in negotiations with Saudi Arabia, accepting on the government’s behalf a luxury plane from double-dealing Qatar, and handing money to the goons in Syria. At the same time, he’s seemingly freezing out Israel, to the great consternation of Israel and its supporters. So, what gives? Having read Charles Lipson’s superb analysis of the problems in dealing with an almost nuclear Iran, and how Biden created this monster, I suspect that “what gives” may be Trump trying an out-of-the-box approach to isolating Iran long enough for his economic policies

During a blistering Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) was visibly floored after Energy Secretary Christopher Wright dropped a bombshell: the Department of Energy handed out a staggering $93 billion in loans and commitments during the final 76 days of the Biden administration, a figure that more than doubled the loan total from the previous 15 years combined. Kennedy, in classic fashion, drilled in with precision. “The 76-day period you’re talking about, that’s the period between the time that President Trump was elected and President Biden left office. Is that right?” “That is correct,” Wright confirmed. Kennedy didn’t mince words

Judge James Ho is a member of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. He has filed an unhappy concurrence in AARP v. Trump. The Fifth Circuit panel is jumping through hoops detailed by the Supreme Court in a per curiam (no author specified) order on application for injunction here, with Justices Alito and Thomas dissenting. The per curiam opinion reads to me like the work of Chief Justice Roberts. AARP appears to be a pseudonym for a member of Tren de Aragua.

Democrats’ Confederacy of Dunces 7 replies

Three hundred years ago, the remarkable satirist Jonathan Swift wrote, “When a true Genius appears in the World, you may know him by this infallible Sign; that the Dunces are all in Confederacy against him.” Now, you might not be President Trump’s biggest fan. Perhaps you are glad that he has returned to the White House but look forward to one of his capable lieutenants succeeding him in four years. But I would argue that never has a larger collection of absolute idiots assembled to oppose an American leader, and for that reason alone, Donald J. Trump is probably a genius. (And a very stable one at that!)

CNN host Jake Tapper has been under fire since announcing he was writing a book about President Joe Biden's cognitive decline and the extensive "cover-up" to convince American voters they were too dumb to see what was happening with their own two eyes. Many have pointed out that Tapper, his network, and the mainstream media in general were active participants in the scandal. They neglected to report on Biden's decline, allowed themselves to be cowed into submission by White House aides, and attacked anyone who suggested the president wasn't fit to serve, which he was not.

Former FBI boss James Comey posted an image of seashells forming “86 47” but quickly claimed, “I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down.” The Secret Service has good reason to take it as a threat. “86” is code for “get rid of,” quite possibly in a permanent way. Comey knew exactly what he was doing, Trump said, and the “dirty cop” was calling for the assassination of the president. Comey was aware that Trump had survived two assassination attempts and was lobbying for another.

We wish former President Biden the best. I pray for his recovery. Honestly, I hope that Jill plans to go to confession and admit that she loved the title of First Lady a lot more than being a devoted wife. My guess is there a lot of ladies in the country who can't believe her disregard for Joe Biden's health and well-being. Again, she loved the title and staff. And now there is prostate cancer: The 82-year-old former president was diagnosed Friday after doctors found a “small nodule” on his prostate during a medical exam earlier this month -- with the cancer cells having spread to the bone, his spokesman revealed Sunday.

A memorial bust of American singer Jim Morrison that was stolen from his grave 37 years ago has been found by chance, according to French police. The statue of The Doors frontman was recovered in Paris during an investigation conducted by its financial and anti-corruption arm that was unrelated to the original theft, it said in a post on Instagram. Morrison's grave has long been a site for fans of the rock band to pay their respects in an unusual way - graffiti sprawls across neighbouring gravestones in the poet's corner of the famous Père-Lachaise cemetery, which also houses the tombs of Edith Piaf and Oscar Wilde.

Trump announced his plans the previous day to develop the multilayered, $175 billion (€155 billion) system with ground- and space-based capabilities that can defend against a wide range of enemy weapons, like drones, hypersonic and cruise missiles, and intercontinental ballistic missiles. The US President said he expected the missile shield to be ready by the end of his second term in 2029.

I have no idea how to comprehend this act of incompetence. Last Friday, severe storms rolled into St. Louis. A tornado touched down and struck the northern part of the city—and there were no warning sirens. The tornado alarm system was never activated. It wasn’t due to a computer glitch. It was human error: the emergency management director, Sarah Russell, essentially forgot to turn it on, but it gets worse: the staff wasn’t even in the office. Russell contacted the fire department to initiate the system, but this was a shambolic failure

In the last two and a half years, eight sitting members of the House or Senate have died in office. Every time, it's been a Democrat. Rep. Gerry Connolly of Virginia, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, died on Wednesday at 75, after a battle with esophageal cancer. He's the third House Democrat to die in the last three months. If Democrats had gained a narrow 1 or 2-seat majority in 2024, they would have lost it by now. The streak of Democratic deaths could just be something of a coincidence. After all, there are plenty of elderly

Ed Martin’s nomination to serve as DC Attorney was nuked by Republican Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC). He was in office on an interim basis. Trump selected Jeanine Pirro to replace Martin, who is now a pardon attorney and helming the Department of Justice’s weaponization task force. Martin is looking at Biden’s pardons, specifically the ones issued toward the end of his presidency. They might not be legal. It comes off allegations that Biden aides might have illegally used the autopen. President Trump has asked who was behind the autopen since it’s become clear that Joe Biden was not mentally cogent enough to know what was going on (via The Hill):

Democrats are celebrating Omaha’s mayoral election win as proof that Republicans are out of step with America, when it’s really evidence how the nation’s cities have fallen out of step with America. There was a time when America’s cities were symbols of progress, but they have long since become sinkholes of decline, clinging to a handful of industries that employ a tiny fraction of their population as evidence of their relevance.
