Good morning kids. Given the fact that the greatest threat to our national security sadly comes from within our own nation. No, not necessarily the the upwards of perhaps greater than 40 million illegal alien foreigners who have been permitted to live among us for decades (but as we all know that has been a massive drain on us economically, politically and culturally, finally being addressed as it should have been years ago). I mean the cancerous, poisonous alien ideology that resides in the brain cases of our own native-born Democrat Leftists whose hatred of their own country and desire for absolute power has torn us apart for deades, and will continue to do so unless and until a real sea change in our culture takes hold and burns this rot out once and for all.
It’s an important check on undemocratic liberalism, but its practitioners must move beyond “tear it all down” partisanship and toward a vision of national unity. . .
. . . Populism, which Trump has embodied, is an important check on what Yascha Mounk has termed undemocratic liberalism. However, national populists must move beyond “tear it all down” partisanship to construct a new, mainstream vision of national unity. The negative impulses of populism need to be reined in: we need a rational populism. Liberal institutions must learn from the populist moment, and populists need a vision for the institutions.
Yes, you could've stopped reading as soon as you hit the words "National Unity."
There will be no national unity when, beyond mere issues, one side views the nation itself and its history as more than merely an illegitimate mistake of history but as the embodiment of evil itself. And since a nation is not merely land but the people who live in it, by extension the other side views us as the living embodiment of evil that is to to be eradicated. We can elect Donald Trumps in every office in the land for the next 50 years, that is if we are allowed to, but the beast that is the Democrat Left is going to have to change its spots for there to be national unity. The two-state solution? Guess what? We're soaking in it right now!
State 1= A restored USA as founded, State 2 = The Democrat Left at or below room temperature in the mass grave they've been digging for us since forever. Recall Bill Ayers planning to liquidate 25 million Americans who refused Communist reeducation once he and the Left seized absolute power.
With that as the set up, I have a message for anyone who may lurk that is in or has a pipeline to the Trump administration and Pam Bondi in particular. But first, I have to inflict this on you as the set up. Apologies in advance.
Whatever her influence may or may not be, I give you the words of a truly horrid harridan upon receiving a SAG award. Yes, the folds of unbotoxed and un-18-hour-girdled and non-surgically-lifted flab abound, but I refer to the Screen Actors' Guild:
Yes, Jane Fonda the other night.
"Make no mistake, empathy is not weak or woke," she said in her speech. "And by the way, woke just means you give a damn about other people. . . “A whole lot of people are going to be really hurt by what is happening, what is coming our way,” she said.The Oscar winner and activist did not mention President Donald Trump by name but appeared to reference the actions of his administration. She also reference actor Sebastian Stan’s portrayal of a young Trump in the SAG award-nominated film “The Apprentice.” “And even if they’re of a different political persuasion, we need to call upon our empathy and not judge, but listen from our hearts and welcome them into our tent, because we are going to need a big tent to resist successfully what’s coming at us," she continued."
Giving a damn about other people? Like American servicemen being held captive and tortured by North Vietnam in the Infamous "Hanoi Hilton" Prison while you were maybe a half mile if that down the road sitting on an NVA flak gun yucking it up for their propagandists and spouting Anti-American bullshit for the world media to gobble up. Yeah, not so much. And when Richard Nixon actually did deliver peace with honor by guaranteeing the territorial integrity of South Vietnam, you and your ilk were overjoyed as the North rolled South in 1975 and we abrogated our agreement and let it happen. Only for the bloodthirsty Khmer Rouge communists to be enabled to conquer Cambodia and slaughter a few million in the Killing Fields, a movie you were not in, Jane. Probably eating a box of Raisinettes in the front row and giggling with glee when Dith Prahn watched his family get butchered.
Funny how you and yours are all upset about Ukraine being overrun by Putin and demanding US troops be sent there to start World War 3 with Putin.
All of that said, I must remind her and anyone reading this post that There is No Statute of Limitations on Treason, and what Jane Fonda engaged in a little over 50 years ago in giving aid and comfort to the enemy during time of war was indeed Treason. A crime for which she should have been tried. A mantra of the Left that I actually ascribe to is "Justice Delayed is Justice Denied."
In our case, real justice, not the Kangaroo Court Stalinist show trial Democrat variety. There is no doubt in my mind that Jane Fonda, by all that is right and good, should face the consequences of her actions. But, what would be the political fallout for doing so?
Frankly, I think she should have been dining with Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, Tokyo Rose, Axis Sally and Lord Haw Haw a long time ago. Then again, I still cannot figure out how an actual verifiable CPUSA cheerleader and voter like John Brennan could ever have been hired on as a CIA agent back in the old days, let alone rise to the top slot (Meh, given who Obama is, that's not so mysterious).
And yet, with the aforementioned Obama, Brennan, Bernardo Sandersnista and 99% of Academia, the media and show business, Sinclair Lewis' It Can't Happen Here did happen here. And miracle of miracles we have been pulled back from the precipice with the emergence of as unlikely a figure as Donald Trump and a movement of American revival and renewal that he has engendered, and please God, sustained, maintained and we shall see totally victorious in our lifetimes.
On a postive note, we have this from a place that at many crucial times in the very recent past has disgusted and disappointed us mightily:
History of a sort was made last night when Chief Justice Roberts issued an order blocking, as Sean Davis called him, “an unhinged federal district court” that joined the chorus of federal judges recently who have either never read Article II of the Constitution or have arrogantly decided it doesn’t apply to them. In issuing his order, the district court judge assumed the powers of the presidency in directing that the administration immediately, repeat: immediately, release two billion dollars in foreign aid. To be clear, that was not a typo and that word began with a “b” -- billion! The chief justice’s order was historical in that it was the first time the High Court has acted in any way to show some willingness to rein in what has become a torrent of arbitrary orders from activist judges as part of the new lawfare against President Trump and his program of reshaping federal government functions, including deep spending cuts.
It must be emphasized that this is only a temporary action by one justice and may or may not result in the entire court taking up the matter for a full review of whether the Constitution actually means what it says: that all executive power of the Federal Government “shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.” It does, however, at the very least indicate that the Chief Justice of the United States was concerned enough about the action of this particular lower court judge that he decided to step in and take a deeper look at this type of judicial “resistance” to the President and his policies.
Just a tiny little glimmer of hope that we might be seeing a course correction by the High Court in sending a strong message to these Obama-Biden far-left activists in robes? Yes, but a healthy and encouraging first step, nonetheless.
We shall see if the Hawaiian Judiciary's motto of Marbury Kaliki-MAGA will prevail, or not. The pessimist in me thinks the latter.
Article I, § 9, Clause 7 of the Constitution says: No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.
Of course the Democrat Left uses and abuses the Constitution as both as a shield and a cudgel to get what it wants. (By any means necessary, yo). It's living and breathing and since they are the only ones that can understand and interpret the language, to suit their will and political expediency only, originalists and strict constructionists are the apostates at the temple who must be annihilated.
And Please God, after Jane Fonda gets the needle, here's hoping a Seal Team can repatriate Joanne Chesimard from California to pay for her heinous murdering of a police officer.
And here's also hoping Pam Bondi and Kash Patel go after Antica, BLM, SJP and the TIDES FOUNDATION with all they've got.
Have a great weekend.
