Hey, DOJ, How About Growing Up and Doing Your Damn Jobs?

 

Washington, DC, is a high school with paychecks. The money is real, and there is a lot of it. However, the people running much of the show are still very much the same angry nerds, unlikeable geeks, aggressive jocks, and teacher suck-ups; everyone else thought people would outgrow after they graduated. Maybe there’s something in the water, I don’t know, but far too often, people near power revert to their worst instincts in a game of “pay attention to me,” either desperate to get credit for something good or avoid blame for something bad. What doesn’t get done is their jobs.

There’s an old saying in Washington, which I’ve seen attributed to everyone from Harry Truman to Ronald Reagan, that goes, “It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.” It probably is true, or at least I’d imagine it to be, but we don’t live in a world like that. I don’t know if one ever existed, but it sure doesn’t exist now.

We now live in a world where Democrats are doing all they can to inspire the murder of federal agents, and the Department of Justice and FBI are scrambling to do damage control and blame-shifting on over-promising and under-delivering on a dead pedophile. 

Yes, I want to know if anyone else is implicated in Jeffrey Epstein’s sick world, but I’d prefer to prevent the murder of ICE and border patrol agents as they do their jobs. I want the authorities to focus on infiltrating, tracking and dismantling the left-wing machine that exists for the express purpose of damaging this country’s law enforcement institutions. And I really want them to throw the book – hell, the whole damn library – at those who fund these goon squads who, only for lack of aim, would have stepped up to murder by now.

Instead of doing that, we have leadership scrambling to make sure their social media followers remain loyal to them, not the President’s agenda or any cause. We have people who’ve not been impressive in their jobs already – whoever decided to bring Kilmar back to try an old case they’re likely to lose, instead of keeping his ass out of the country (I mean, we’d already won, why backtrack?) should be fired – running around, leaking to the media that they can’t work with this one, or won’t work with that one because their integrity won’t allow for it.

Real integrity doesn’t leak to the press, especially when you’ve made a lot of money complaining about the press. 

No one looks good here, as no one is doing anything beyond a game of CYA. 

President Donald Trump and his agenda are not being served. The attempts by all involved are not to make sure he knows what is really happening, they’re for public consumption – they are to serve a career after government work; to keep media bookings flowing and audiences on the hook. If it were about the President’s agenda the conversations would be taking place with the President, not “reporters” at CNN and Axios.

Honestly, President Trump should clean house. If these people won’t put their egos aside (and they all have big egos) and do their damn jobs, replace them with people who will. There are people trying to murder federal officers enforcing the laws of the United States and one political party is leading that bloodthirsty charge while federal law enforcement makes sure they don’t get hit with social media backlash from an unforced error. It’s pathetic.

Everyone involved dropped the ball. They all spent years declaring things to be true that they had zero proof actually was, they sold tales from sources giving them information about alleged perverts they repeated as fact, but when they found themselves in a position to do something about it either discovered they’d been lied to and remained quiet about it or ignored it. The Attorney General was so misleading in her public statements while in office that you have to wonder if she understands basic definitions of words.

In all of that, someone decided to make up binders and give “social media influencers” already publicly available information in them and pretend it was A) new and B) just the first release of information.

I don’t know who is to blame, or who is more to blame, and it doesn't matter because none of this has been anything but clownish, and none of it has been helpful to the America First agenda.

Meanwhile, somewhere out there, the radical left is plotting more ambushes, illegal aliens are committing crimes and victimizing Americans, and the 300,000 children the Biden administration “lost” are being trafficked into slavery, either labor or sexual. And the people charged with bringing it all to justice are playing PR games. 

President Trump needs to summon them all to the Oval Office, chew them all out, tell them to grow the hell up and do their damn jobs or clean out their desks so he can put someone in those offices who will. Those jobs are too damn important to be occupied by people who have priorities other than doing them.

The Deep State Wins Again

 

America has always had evil people.  Every society in human history has.  Civilized societies, however, are able to marginalize them and keep them in a position where they can only do a modicum of damage.  Civilization will cease to exist in a country overrun by uncivilized, evil barbarians.   Historian Will Durant’s words are accurate:  “Civilization is an occasional and temporary interruption of the jungle.”  The jungle is growing rapidly in America now, and civilization is being swamped by it.

The major problem in the United States now is that evil dominates in many sectors of our society.  The Democratic Party is wholly given over to evil, and half the country votes for that party.  The Democrats’ total program is evil.  Licentiousness, promiscuity, government dependence (slavery), criminality and law breaking—civilization can’t exist when half the people vote for this stuff.  The Democratic Party has succumbed to evil and savagery.

The party of Jefferson didn’t used to be that way.   But it is now.  And while the Republican Party is not as decadent as the Democratic Party is, there is still much, much evil among Republicans as well.  Or, perhaps the big problem with the Republicans is weakness, gutlessness.  Republicans don't have the strength of character to stand up against evil.  As Edmund Burke well said, “Evil prevails when good men fail to act.”  He also said, “The hottest fires in hell are reserved for those who remain neutral in times of moral crisis.”  Unfortunately, that describes too many Republicans in Washington, D.C.

When I say that the Democratic Party is given over to evil, I don't mean that everything every Democratic Party member does is evil.  Nobody is 100% wicked, though some Democrats get close.  Even Adolf Hitler loved his mother and did a few nice things for his friends.  And there exist some Democrats who occasionally do positive things.  But their whole program, from “pride,” to abortion, to transgenderism and child mutilation, to pornography, to illegal aliens, to government slavery—these are evil policies, and they are destroying the civilized, family norms necessary for a country to survive.  Just look at the chaos in America today.  It hasn’t been caused by traditional, nuclear family, Judeo-Christian values.

The Democrats teach licentious as “freedom,” they teach promiscuity, dependence, violence; they teach evil, they do not teach righteousness, godliness, self-control, individual responsibility, and self- reliance, the family values that are necessary to build a strong society.   That is today’s Democratic Party, and what it stands for is pure, 100% evil.  And anybody who votes for it is backing that evil agenda.

We will never see the Jeffrey Epstein files.  I don't know all that's going on there, but we will never see them, I am convinced of that. Several weeks ago, Pam Bondi said she had them on her desk.  Now we're hearing that they have been destroyed, maybe by the CIA 15 years ago or something.  But we'll never see them.  And if we're naive enough to think that only Democrats are on that list, then we are, of all people, most naive. And so, there are a lot of Republicans that don't want the Epstein files released either.

In other words, the Deep State wins again.

The Deep State has consistently won over the last several decades, and it will probably continue to do so into the foreseeable future.  We are hoping that Donald Trump will be able to “drain the swamp” and defeat the Deep State, but he made no dent in that in his first term in office and we aren’t seeing much success so far.  Well, he's certainly not going to do it in six months, and he's probably not going to be able to do it at all.  The Deep State is too powerful.  There are too many forces arrayed against him.  And again, his own party is not devoted to defeating the Deep State (the Democrats certainly aren’t), and now, with the Epstein files fiasco, Trump’s own administration is giving in to it.

We are probably not going to see millions of illegals deported, either; the Deep State doesn’t want them gone, and again, I fear that Donald Trump, by himself, doesn’t have the strength to defeat this horrendous enemy.  

When there is corruption at the top, when evil dominates a country’s leadership, it will eventually filter down to the masses.  And that is what is happening, and has happened, in America.  “O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err,” (Isaiah 3:12).  When evil is in the hearts of the leaders, it is what they will teach the hoi polloi.  And then those indoctrinated masses, in a democracy, now being overcome by evil themselves, turn around and elect more evil leaders.  It becomes a vicious circle.  In America, that's why the Democratic Party is so evil today, and why so many people vote for evil.  They don't know any better.  They follow their leaders, and in their hearts, that is what they themselves, have become.   Righteousness, for now, has been crushed by evil.  It’s not the first time in history that has occurred, not by a long shot.

Can we change this?  Can we turn America around?  America's problems, as I have stated many times before, are not economic, they aren’t social, and they're not political. America's problem is moral.  If you have a rotten people, you're going to have a rotten country.  And until we turn this country back to godliness and righteousness, we are not going to save the nation.  Burke one more time:  “Liberty does not exist in the absence of morality.”  I do not see a change happening anywhere on the horizon.

John Brennan’s Checkered Past Comes Back to Haunt Him Amid DOJ Investigation

 

Recently, Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Trump Department of Justice have said they are running an investigation into James Comey’s and John Brennan’s careers as the respective FBI director and the CIA head during the Obama administration and, in the case of Comey, the first year of the Trump administration.

They are very angry about this, but let’s just review why there might be some culpability.

Take John Brennan. He was a big proponent of waterboarding and enhanced interrogation under President George W. Bush’s administration and the things that went on in Guantanamo. I’m not gonna comment on whether they were right or wrong. But he flipped to condition himself to go into the Obama administration, and then he attacked the very president that he had served, George Bush.

Then he began sounding off about Islam—“Religion of Peace”; “Jihadism is not a violent act”—to condition himself further to be appointed by President Barack Obama, which he was, eventually, a CIA director. But then he started lying. I mean, he always probably lied, but I mean, flagrantly so.

He said before Congress and the media there wasn’t one civilian killed by Obama’s targeted assassination program via Predators on the Afghan or Pakistan border. Actually, there were 50 or 75 innocent people we killed. He was caught in that lie.

Three years later, he went before the Congress and there was information that he had been tapping, his CIA, the staffers for the Senate to get into their computers. He not only lied about it, he did so emphatically—“Oh, we would never do that. That’s horrible.” Then he was forced to say, “Yes, I lied.” In both cases, there were no perjury charges, nothing.

The pièce de résistance for John Brennan was in October 2020, on the eve of the second and critical presidential debate, Joe Biden was in trouble. People were furious about this laptop. There was pornography on it. There was drug use. There were references to Joe Biden as “Mr. Big Guy.” Ten percent that he’d been giving money. He was crooked. People wanted to hear, he had no excuse.

So, what happened? Antony Blinken, his future secretary of state, campaign aid, called Michael Morell, interim CIA director at one point, said, “Round them up.”

So, 51 “intelligence authorities” swore the laptop had all the hallmarks of Russian information. Notice the words: All the hallmarks, escape clause, of Russian information. Not disinformation, but that’s what they meant.

So, what happened in the debate? Donald Trump went right after Biden and said, “That laptop is real. It shows that you’re a crook. It shows your son is a miscreant.”

And Joe Biden’s, “How dare you? Fifty-one Intelligence authorities swear that it’s a product of Russian espionage. Only you and Rudy Giuliani believe that.” And it was effective.

Later a poll showed, the TechnoMetrica poll showed that if people had known that it had been authenticated—and by the way, that laptop was sitting in the hands of the FBI and adjudicated to be authentic and not released to the public at a time when Christopher Wray’s FBI was partnering with Twitter and Facebook to suppress any news story that was accurately reporting that the laptop was authentic.

John Brennan finally accused Donald Trump of being a Russian traitor. He said that after Donald Trump spoke in Helsinki about Russian-American relationships, he said that he is treasonous.

When he said that, I think we all thought: Well, wait a minute. Donald Trump killed the Wagner Group in Syria. He upped the sanctions on the oligarchs. He approved offensive weapons to Ukraine that Obama had canceled. Russia didn’t go into Ukraine under the Trump administration. It had invaded Ossetia under Bush. It went under Ukraine under both Biden and Obama, but not under Trump. He told the Germans, “Don’t cut a deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.” He got out of an asymmetrical missile deal. He was the hardest president that we’ve had against Russia.

So, what was John Brennan doing? Here’s what he was doing—and two or three of the most significant scandals of the last 50 years, he was at the center.

You could make the argument that the Russian collusion hoax almost swung the election to Hillary Clinton. You could argue that.

You could argue that the Mueller investigation, based on that stupid dossier, cost Donald Trump 22 months of his first two years in office. Forty million dollars to find nothing.

You could make the argument that if the FBI had just released its investigation of the laptop, told the people it was authentic, John Brennan would not, and his cohorts, been able to lie to the American people that it was cooked up in Russia and that Donald Trump was complicit in that.

That disclosure, that failure to disclose the true nature of that laptop, thanks to John Brennan and 51 intelligence authorities, and the debate by Joe Biden, and the false charges, may have affected the election. As I said, one polling company found that it did.

And finally, we wouldn’t be in this big trouble about the Ukraine war and Russia had John Brennan and people like him not floated the spurious narrative that Donald Trump was working hand in glove with Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin. Russia, Russia, Russia. That colored and poisoned the whole relationship we had with Russia. It affected the Russian-Ukrainian war. And it was all a lie.

And so, here we are with John Brennan mad that he lost his security clearance for being a well-paid MSNBC analyst. He should be better worried, not that he lost his security clearance, that he might be indicted and go to jail. He’s got a lot of culpability, both in not telling the truth and spinning lies and being at the heart of a number of scandals that affected the history of the United States.

How the Left Lost Its Collective Mind

 

Across the political Left, from orthodox Democrats to Antifa in the streets, the opposition to President Donald Trump has lost its collective mind.

The Democrat House minority leader and now self-styled tough guy, New York Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, poses with a baseball bat to show how dangerous he is in opposing President Donald Trump’s budget bill.

Jeffries harangued Congress for eight hours; New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker went on for 25—both to no effect.

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez hit the rally trail in private jets to rail about oligarchs, omitting that the ultrarich are not only mostly leftists but also the funders of the Democratic Party.

Sometimes the Democrats in Congress make bizarre videos, featuring profanity like f— or s—. On other occasions, they scream and interrupt Congress.

Some representatives now confess that they’re being pressured by their constituents to take a bullet for the cause.

The racialist Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett—sometimes playing the prep-school prima donna, sometimes modulating her accent to pass as the authentic inner-city activist—gains headlines for monotonously ranting about old white men.

On left-wing social media, the assassin Luigi Mangione remains a heartthrob for murdering a health care executive, replacing the Tsarnaev brothers as the hot new left-wing killer.

He, too, might soon end up with a cover photo on Rolling Stone.

The left-wing internet mob grotesquely claims that children lost to the recent flash flood in Texas deserved their fate.

They even advance three sick reasons for their ghoulishness. Texas Christians supported the MAGA agenda and thus met a just fate. Or, as red-state Texans, they were deservedly collateral damage to the Department of Government Efficiency’s bureaucratic reductions. Or, as climate denialists would say, the flash flood took righteous revenge on children for their supposed ignorance.

Add it all up, and there is a sizable leftist “base” that is completely amoral.

Then there are the college campuses, where left-wing antisemitism, pro-Hamas terrorism, and DEI-fueled racism risk costing elite universities their multibillion-dollar subsidies that fund the indoctrination of young leftists.

In panic, cash-strapped universities can no longer hide that they were gouging the federal government with outrageous surcharges on grants. They were systematically defying the Supreme Court by their race-based admissions and hiring. They institutionalized segregationist dorms, segregated graduations, and antisemitism.

Finally, there is the so-called left-wing Resistance and the street mobs’ descent into violence and terrorism.

Sometimes, thugs ambush U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

Sometimes, they firebomb Tesla dealerships.

Sometimes, they attack federal buildings, shut down freeways, and pelt patrol cars with concrete.

They continue with impunity because they know the Democratic Party cannot and will not censure them.

As in the monthslong rioting of 2020, leftist politicos assume their street bandits will cause so much mayhem, violence, and chaos that Trump will either be forced to call out the troops (and thus “prove” he’s Hitler) or be too scared to—only to be blamed for the unrest, which could cost him the midterms.

But who or what drives the insane rages of these various armies of the left?

One is an obviously bleeding Democratic Party. Despite gushing about its new DEI, illegal alien, trans, and Middle Eastern constituents, it has no political power. Its issues are mostly 30-70 losers.

It has little power in the House or Senate beyond fake filibusters, performative outrage, or profanity-laced rants.

It lost the White House. The Supreme Court eventually nullified the illegality of left-wing district judges.

It does not trust the people, so plebiscites and ballot measures are mostly out.

Two, unlike his first term, Trump is addressing the causes, not just the symptoms, of the progressive project, whether on the border, crime, cultural issues, or foreign policy.

This time around, there are no John Boltons, no Rex Tillersons, no Alexander Vindmans, and no Anonymouses from the inside to thwart the Trump agenda.

The administration is loyalist and committed to addressing the root causes of the left-wing influence, not just its manifestations.

So, Trump has focused on leftist sacred cows like NPR, PBS, the elite campuses, the United States Agency for International Development, and the administrative state—all the inculcators and laboratories of leftist ideology.

Finally, the Left is outraged that so far, the Trump counterrevolution is working.

The economy is solid. The border is closed. Military recruitment has radically recovered.

The budget bill has passed. The Iranian nuclear threat has lessened. NATO is strengthening. The Middle East has a chance for calm.

Tariffs did not cause inflation. Deportations created more, not fewer, American jobs. Biological men will likely no longer be winning women’s athletic contests.

Add it all up, and the impotent Left in all its orthodox and street manifestations has become unhinged.

And why not when it rightly fears that not just its power, but the very sources of its power, are in mortal danger?

Zohran Mamdani’s Skeletons Are Coming Out of the Closet

 

e’ve talked before about the front-runner in the New York mayoral race, Zohran Mamdani. And we’ve mentioned before that he talked about “seizing the means of production,” which comes right out of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels’ “Das Kapital,” “The Communist Manifesto.”

We talked about his claims that he never advocated defunding the police, even though there’s an extensive social media trail where he advocates just that.

He talked about going into “richer” and “whiter” areas and taxing them, specifically, at a higher rate. Kind of ironic, as we mentioned that the highest income group in the United States by ethnic background are people from India, Indian Americans. Mamdani’s parents, for example. He didn’t say, in other words, richer and Indian American, he just used the word “white” because he is trying to cater himself to the African American vote.

All that being said, because he is such an extremist figure and because he has been pampered and grown up very rich, he was never really required to go out and get a job and go through audits. He’s been a rapper. He’s been an activist. He’s tried to run for office. He has an extensive left-wing record. And now that he’s in the public realm, everything is starting to come out.

Just to give you a couple of examples: His father was in a discussion—you know, a conference discussion—and said that Adolf Hitler’s idea for the final solution and many of his policies toward the Jews came from Abraham Lincoln, the way Lincoln supposedly treated Indians on reservations. That’s crazy.

Anwar al-Awlaki, I don’t know if you remember him, al-Awlaki. He was an American citizen that went to Yemen. And he advocated killing Americans. And he was a terrorist. Barack Obama, when he was president, ordered a predator hit team on him and killed al-Awlaki in a targeted assassination—who was, by the way, an ISIS supporter, but he was also a U.S. citizen. So, we assassinated him without habeas corpus. Be that as it may, that was Obama’s decision.

But now we learned, in 2015, years after that Obama hit on this ISIS figure—was one of the captains of ISIS and living in Yemen—Mamdani was defending him and saying, basically, he turned radical because the FBI surveilled him. That’s like saying that FBI Director Kash Patel turned radical because the FBI surveilled him. People don’t become terrorist kingpins because the American FBI thinks you’re a person of interest.

He has some other disturbing things as well. He posted a video on his social media of Indian Americans dressed as if they were Hasidic Jews. And they were making fun of the Hanukkah celebration. And they had a menorah there. And they were chanting, as if they were rap music. It was very derogatory toward Jews. Yet, why would he put that on his social media account?

That’s not the end of it. He’s very sensitive about the African American and Latino vote—which I don’t think he’s going to win. But now we learn that when he applied to college, to Bowdoin—and I think, further, to graduate school, in which he was not admitted—he claimed that he was an African American.

And you know, as someone who was in academia for three decades, I used to have students that were from North Africa, Egypt, or Morocco, or Algeria, but were not African American. That is, they were not blacks. And they tried that trick. And they were not successful. Neither was Mamdani.

But imagine, he’s giving lectures—moral lectures, sanctimonious lectures, self-righteous lectures—about how unequal the United States is. And then, yet, he tries to mimic or pass on an Elizabeth Warren or a Ward Churchill-like fraud that he’s African American, that he is a black African.

Just because his parents, who were Indian and immigrants to Uganda and were one of the 1% elite in that country, and they were thrown out as refugees, he’s now claiming that he should have had special—I shouldn’t say he’s now claiming—he claimed that he should have had special preference in admissions because he was black.

You add all of this up and I guarantee you more will come out every day because he’s a pampered, privileged, angry, young socialist/communist. He’s had no experience. He’s out of depth. And he has a long social media record.

And the only question that I have for you, the audience, and me, because I’m genuinely puzzled about it, the more that we hear that he’s a lunatic and unhinged and anti-American and socialist, does that help him or does that hurt him, given the demographics of New York?
