Good morning kids. With the tempest in a Teapot Dome over the so-called "gift" from Qatar of a jumbo jet to President Trump still swirling, a friend had told me that supposedly the delivery of the jet had been arranged by Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants in the last years of his junta for the same reasons President Trump is accepting delivery on behalf of the United States, and not him personally. I cannot find reference to this anywhere on line, but the salient facts as to why the jet is being accepted and is sadly needed remain:
Buzz Patterson, a retired Air Force pilot, White House military aide, and carrier of the nuclear football, has stepped in to inject a dose of reality—and firsthand experience—into the conversation. While critics scramble to paint the move as some kind of scandal involving President Trump, Patterson makes clear this is nothing new or scandalous, and absolutely nothing that warrants the breathless outrage.
“I’m going to try one last time,” Patterson began in a post on X. “The Qatar B-747 was built in the US by Boeing. They are offering a newer 747 to replace one of the two current AF-1s that have been flying for 40 years. Which are tired and need to be replaced.”
That last point is key. The current Air Force One planes are aging relics that first entered service when Ronald Reagan was in the White House. Replacing them has been a long, slow, and—thanks to bureaucratic delays—frustrating process. Patterson, who served as a military aide during the Clinton administration and has flown on Air Force One over a hundred times, says the Qatar aircraft would simply help fill the gap until Boeing completes new replacements—something that won’t happen for years.
No wonder the Democrat/Left is shrieking its lungs out about this. The average American is paying more attention to who and what the Dems are pushing and defending, that is criminal illegal alien invaders that are murdering and raping their way across America while sacking the US treasury in the process.
House Republicans are moving to block an estimated 1.4 million illegal aliens from receiving American taxpayer-funded Medicaid as Democrats struggle to message their support for the unpopular position.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee completed its markup of its portion of the budget reconciliation bill Wednesday morning after an all-night session which included a provision blocking anyone unable to verify citizenship, nationality, or satisfactory immigration status from coverage. The committee projects 1.4 million illegal aliens will be removed from the program due to those requirements.
House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) ignored a question from CNN’s Wolf Blitzer about the cost savings from striking illegal aliens from the taxpayer dole Wednesday and if fighting it would “open up” Democrats to attacks that they support tax dollars going to illegal aliens. . . Newsom has moderated some of the radical left-wing stances that sent him to Sacramento but are seen as politically toxic in a national general election — suggesting House Democrats are fighting a battle they may be destined to lose on ensuring taxpayer-funded Medicaid for illegal aliens. Complicating Democrats’ messaging is their repeated calls for decades to rid Medicaid of waste, fraud, and abuse – the very initiative they now insist to loathe.
I don't know where this 1.4 million figure comes from. Biden's four-year border erasure allowed perhaps 10 times that number in if not more, and there were probably close to at least 40 million illegal aliens already here long before he was wheeled in as Obama's puppet. And it doesn't even come close to the fictitious 11 million illegal aliens figure that has been bandied about at least since Reagan was duped into signing the Simpson-Mazzoli amnesty travesty in 1986.
the reality is that the Democrat Party is far beyond distressed. As a functioning political entity, it has no reason for existing beyond opposing Trump, and secondarily Republicans. It is completely devoid of any issues, policies or even philosophies relevant to the majority of Americans. Their top issues are protecting violent illegal aliens and drag queen story hour for kiddos while trashing Martin Luther King’s dream by insisting on hiring people based on skin color. The economy is right there! (It won’t be by the end of the year or before, but it is right now.)
Meanwhile, President Trump remains steadfast in his efforts on all fronts. ICE is so overwhelmed trying to remove Biden’s unknown millions of illegals that Trump is doubling down on deportation efforts. On Friday, he ordered the Department of Homeland Security to increase the deportation force of the United States by 20,000 officers. It would be an enormous and needed expansion of immigration enforcement. Details to be ironed out, but also expect him to seek creative ways to house the illegals in various facilities on their way out, because the existing ones are also overwhelmed.
Politically speaking, Democrats have ripe targets of opportunity. But with a base of radicals and extremists they insist on playing to, they are resolutely avoiding them. The question is: Can they recover any purpose on behalf of the American people or will they continue to slide into political second class citizenship?
The Democrat Party was, is and always will be ANTI-American, insofar as that all it cares about is the acquisition of absolute power, and so that last last question answers itself. Party politics is one thing, but evil never rests.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Secret Service have launched an investigation into an alarming social media post published by former FBI Director James Comey.
Former FBI Director James Comey on Thursday shared an image on Instagram that many people saw as an unsubtle threat to President Donald Trump. Comey posted a photo of a rock formation on a sandy beach that spelled out “86 47,” and captioned the post “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.”
. . . DHS Secretary Kristi Noem wrote on X that Comey’s post was being viewed as an assassination threat and an appropriate investigation has been launched. “Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUS Trump,” Noem said. “DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”
Considering, the Left went apeshit about Sarah Palin's "target" imagery, and the fact that James Comey was a co-conspirator in he various and sundry plots to derail Donald Trump's candidacy in 2016 via the Russia Collusion hoax and that the FBI and CIA used foreign and domestic intelligence assets to gin up that smear campaign and that both have been implicated in the use of assassination in their operations (legitimate and otherwise). That President Trump has already been the target of at least two known attempts on his life prior to the 2024 election, Comey to me is a very sick and dangerous threat to our national security and needs to be investigated thoroughly with a view towards imprisonment for a very long time in a Federal prison.
