The Week In Pictures: Mariachi Edition
Posted By: Hazymac, 10/4/2025 6:56:49 AM
Some matters of substance did occur this week: there was a purported government shutdown, Secretary Hegseth lectured the brass, a Gaza flotilla was intercepted, Taylor Swift dropped a new album…OK, not a really big news week. But all of that paled compared with the video that President Trump posted of Hakeem Jeffries in a sombrero, with a mustache, while a mariachi band played. It was a psyop of the highest order, and the sequela were entertaining to say the least. The memesters couldn’t resist. So here we go:

I see Forbes is saying this morning:
"The $7,500 EV tax credit was one of many casualties resulting from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. While this bill was signed into law on July 4, the credit did not expire for several months, according to Forbes. However, as of October 1, these credits are no longer available, leading to questions about the future of this segment of the automotive industry. Most notably, the tax incidence for purchasing these vehicles shifts from the Federal government to the purchasers or the car manufacturers."
Buckle up, kids. I’ll tell you right up front: I’m cheering that this tax break has been ended. Truth is,
Charlie Kirk is dead. Americans must face why.
His murder was not random, not confusing, not detached from the battles he fought so fiercely in life. It was the direct consequence of his bold refusal to bend before one of the most aggressive and destabilizing ideologies of our time: transgender radicalism.
For years, Kirk warned about the dangers of this movement. Not just its cultural consequences, but the deeper crisis of mental illness and violence it has unleashed across the nation. In the end, his voice was silenced by precisely the pestilence he spent his career opposing.
The facts are painfully clear. On Sept. 13, 2025, police captured Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old suspect

JK Rowling has responded after Emma Watson made conciliatory comments in a podcast posted Wednesday about their relationship, which has been marked for years by conflicting views on transgender rights.
On Monday, JK Rowling posted a nearly 700-word response to her 14.4 million X followers, addressing Emma Watson's latest remarks about their ongoing conflict.
"Emma Watson and her co-stars have every right to embrace gender identity ideology," Rowling wrote. "Such beliefs are legally protected, and I wouldn’t want to see any of them threatened with loss of work, or violence, or death, because of them."
She then targeted Watson and her "Harry Potter" co-star
Out in the Open

September 2025 has been an interesting month.The undeclared cold civil war in the West is everywhere coming out of the closet. Both the Woke and Populist coalitions in every country have openly declared political war on one another —clashing over ideology, generational voter bases, and economic policy.The moment of open conflict can be dated approximately from Charlie Kirk's assassination and the MAGA coalition crossing "red lines" on border policy domestically and Palestinian recognition internationally. There were other similar lines of departure in the UK, France and Germany.
The eerie thing about it is not that the kinetic level of confrontation has increased;
Can This Nation Be Saved?

How does America survive when its citizens belong to two divided camps that believe fundamentally incompatible things?
Over the last century, there has been a trend to establish “truth and reconciliation commissions” in countries emerging from periods of political terrorism, totalitarianism, or civil war. The idea is to acknowledge the crimes and atrocities that past governments officially sanctioned and to recognize the harms inflicted upon their victims. As is often the case when governments “disappear” citizens or throw them in gulags for their politically incorrect thoughts, it is the not knowing that haunts society. Survivors bereft of answers are left with inconsolable anguish.

One of President Trump's most valuable cabinet members, Marco Rubio, who wears both the Secretary of State cap, and the National Security Advisor cap, gets called on to perform a lot of duties.
One of them is the equivalent of barroom bouncer.
At the United Nations, he threw out the president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro from the U.S. premises. (X) That was after a string of leftwing buffooneries and outrages.
Two days ago, it was buffooneries: (X) It should be noted that this was the assessment of Colombians who also believed he had not just been drinking but snorting cocaine.
It ought to be compared and contrasted with the speech delivered
FBI Agents Fired, Finally

In the bad old days of 2020, a number of FBI agents participated in George Floyd demonstrations and knelt in deference to that supposed martyr: Some agents who engaged in such conduct were reassigned (to what?) last spring, but now as many as 20 FBI agents have been fired:
The FBI has fired agents who were photographed kneeling during a racial justice protest in Washington that followed the 2020 death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers, three people familiar with the matter said Friday.
The bureau last spring had reassigned the agents but has since fired them, said the people, who insisted on anonymity to discuss personnel matters
Democrats Can’t Debate

Charlie Kirk is emblematic of one of the things that is great about our country. Endowed by our Creator, we have freedom of speech. The First Amendment in our Bill of Rights enshrines this. Within bounds, we can express our own opinion, argue, and debate. Most importantly, we are free to say unpopular things so long as there’s no incitement to violence or willful defamation.
Charlie used freedom of speech to enlighten, educate, argue, and persuade. He chose a debate format, offering people with ideological differences a chance to give their own perspectives. If you count winning by hearts and minds,
It was quite a week. The biggest story was the indictment of James Comey, about which I have reservations. But the indictment was a boon to memesters, who recalled Comey’s earlier art project featuring seashells.
Much more happened, too. The Trump administration adopted recommendations by the Harvard School of Public Health on the use of Tylenol by pregnant women, which were immediately denounced by leftists, even though it turned out that the manufacturer of Tylenol said the same thing. Jimmy Kimmel returned to television and garnered massive ratings in his first show back, mainly due to people tuning in to see whether he would apologize. He didn’t.

Kamala Harris has always had a curious relationship with words. She doesn’t so much use them to communicate as she does to string together phrases that sound like she’s desperately trying to prove how profound she is, but it just sounds like nonsensical garbage. Case in point: In her latest podcast appearance, she told a wild story that she obviously thought made her look good but was actually quite terrifying.
While promoting her new book, 107 Days, Harris sat down with the “House Guest” podcast to reminisce about her disastrous 2024 presidential campaign. Naturally, she wanted to highlight just how much the people allegedly adored her. But instead of
The New York Times is reporting that a “senior Justice Department official” has directed “more than a half dozen U.S. attorney’s offices to draft plans to investigate a group funded by George Soros.”
Soros is the notorious Democrat donor and billionaire mastermind behind a lot of the Left’s attempts to gain power and control in America. Now it appears we may get a peek behind that curtain.
According to the Times report, its reporters had the chance to view a copy of the DOJ official’s memo detailing a list of charges that could be filed against Soros’s Open Society Foundations. These include racketeering, arson, wire fraud, and providing

The Liberal government's compensated confiscation campaign aimed at removing the vast majority of semi-automatic firearms from the hands of legal gun owners has officially begun, with a pilot program in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia launching on Wednesday.
The "buyback" effort is aimed at taking thousands of models of semi-automatic firearms away from their once-lawful owners, who risk criminal charges if they're caught in possession of their firearms once the government's amnesty period has expired.
[snip] He said after the program ends and there are no more buybacks, police will know who still has banned guns, so he may as well comply now and get something for it.
Hamas on Friday agreed to release all Israeli hostages — living and dead — but wants to negotiate the other terms of President Trump’s comprehensive peace deal even after the commander in chief said there was “not much” room for discussion. [Snip] “Based on the Statement just issued by Hamas, I believe they are ready for a lasting PEACE,” Trump said in a statement posted to his Truth Social page.
The commander in chief later posted a short video on Truth, calling Friday a “very special, maybe unprecedented” day, while thanking countries including Qatar, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan for their help in hammering out the proposed peace deal.
BOSTON — A federal appeals court in Boston ruled on Friday that the Trump administration cannot withhold citizenship from children born to people in the country illegally or temporarily, adding to the mounting legal setbacks for the president’s birthright order.
A three-judge panel of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals became the fifth federal court since June to either issue or uphold orders blocking the president’s birthright order. The court concluded that the plaintiffs are likely to succeed on their claims that the children described in the order are entitled to birthright citizenship under the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment.
A group calling itself “Friends Against Fascism Organization” announced it would hold a “tailgate” party on the University of Virginia campus Friday evening to burn American flags while serving “burgers, dogs and refreshing beverages.” White House rapid response strategist Greg Price shared the group’s flyer on X. However, the legitimacy of the “organization” planning the protest in the parking lot prior to a UVA volleyball match Friday night remains unclear. The university has never heard of the group.
The event is ostensibly in response to President Donald Trump’s executive order in August to prosecute flag burning when it incites violent crime.

Chapel at Dallas Airport and Block Him

When Pastor Tom Ascol first heard about a “prayer service” at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, he admitted that he had “very low expectations.”
Even Ascol couldn’t have foreseen how badly this “prayer service” would miss even his low expectations.
Ascol gained quite a bit of virality recently when he recounted an infuriating experience he had at DFW Airport:
Ascol revealed that he was at that airport as he was waiting to fly back home after seeing the family of Voddie Baucham, a titan of Christianity who recently passed away.
“As I await my flight home from seeing Voddie’s family an announcement in [DFW Airport] says ‘all are welcome’ to a ‘prayer service’ in the chapel,”

They can’t stop it. They’re powerless. And we don’t care if you’re upset. The memes will continue until the government reopens. It’s asymmetrical warfare—I love it. The Democrats never expected to be hit like this during the Schumer shutdown, and it shows. They are seething over President Trump’s trolling of Democrats over their little show here. Liberals want $1.5 trillion for illegal alien health care and NPR funding. That’s the crux of why they decided to shut down DC. When talks failed, Trump posted a video of Hakeem Jeffries, K-Mart Obama, standing next to Chuck Schumer with a moustache and a sombrero, where the latter rattled off reasons

A student television network at the University of Delaware, which houses the Biden Institute, offered "SPECIAL THANKS" to "CHARLIE KIRK'S KILLER" at the end of a comedy program, then quickly and quietly removed the joke from the episode.
The credits for last week’s episode of the Biweekly Show, a student comedy program produced under the university’s supervision, included a "special thanks" section with entries like "COCAINE," "AMNESTY WEEK," "VIOLENCE"—and "CHARLIE KIRK'S KILLER." Delaware Republican Party executive director Nick Miles told the Washington Free Beacon the video was uploaded to YouTube the evening of Sept. 25 and replaced with a version that omitted the credits the following afternoon. The episode does, however,
The religion of Islam teaches that raping and killing non-Muslims is a holy and necessary action. Is it any surprise, therefore, that some of the Muslim immigrants to Europe and America admit frankly that their goal is, quite simply, conquest and transformation?
San Diego Imam Uthman Ibn Farooq delivered an address in Birmingham, Great Britain, which should chill the heart of every American patriot. America and Europe will be Muslim, the imam excitedly predicted, urging his fellow Muslims not to water down a single word of their religion, which includes explicit commands to rape, assault, conquer, and murder “infidels.” The imam even referenced a desire to be a “martyr,”

The Democrats appear to have miscalculated on triggering a government shutdown by a vast measure, which we started to see in motion mere hours after the Schumer Shutdown began on Oct. 1.
Then as my colleague Ward Clark wrote earlier on Thursday, President Trump signaled in a Truth Social post he was eager to sit down with OMB head Vought in the afternoon, to dig into what extraneous government spending might get cut--especially anything prized by the Democrats. We may have had a preview of this, though, from something Vought posted on his X account on Wednesday afternoon --
Thursday on MSNBC’s “All In,” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) said President Donald Trump’s second term has become “the worst crisis in America literally since the Civil War.”
Host Chris Hayes said, “You’ve have been in you’ve served in Congress, in the Senate, you served through a number of different administrations with different presidents. I’ve covered a number of shutdowns. I’ve never seen a president during a shutdown kind of gloating about the ability to punish people or to take stuff away from people in states that didn’t vote for him. Have you seen that before?
The Department of Energy canceled a $630.6 million Biden-era grant that would have funded green energy projects in California, and which Gov. Gavin Newsom (D.) praised as "critical" to the state, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.
According to internal agency documents, Trump Energy Department officials determined that the grant would have been used primarily to support new solar and wind energy projects. State leaders said they planned to use the funding to upgrade 100 miles of transmission lines to enable more green energy to come online as part of the California Energy Commission's so-called CHARGE 2T program.
Three non-citizens were arrested recently for illegally voting in Arkansas elections, as state officials are working to ensure only American citizens can vote.[snip] Griffin said an investigation was launched earlier this year when federal officials alerted state authorities about certain people whose voting records appeared incongruent with their citizenship status, adding Arkansas authorities partnered with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on the issue.
