  • What Would the Electoral Map Look Like if the Trump Revolution Never Happened?

    If you like maps, this piece is just for you. Political animals, especially the kind who oppose the current peaceful ideological revolution within the United States, count on voters to have short memories and forget things that happened not all that long ago. Take Joe Walsh and Adam Kinzinger, two of the biggest morons on this platform, who are raking in massive subscription cash by screeching about “Orange Man Bad” 24/7 as prime examples. Walsh once demanded President Obama build moats filled with alligators to discourage illegal border crossings; now, he’s a raving lunatic clamoring to be loved by the...

    This will not be a full series review, just a note to say I finished season one and it was fantastic. GREAT characters, including Samuel played by the great actor Stephen Lang ("Pickett" in "Gettysburg") and Oded Fehr (one of the protectors of the tomb in "The Mummy"). Michael Iskander is fantastic as David, who, almost alone among his family is willing to take the prophet's word. Ali Sulieman plays a deteriorating king, looking more and more like Biden with every episode. True to the Bible. I give it an A.

    Ok, sorry it has a paywall---this is only my review of it. Everyone needs to read this powerful book. It's DENSE, and took me about 4 hours to read, but the insight into how the big social tech companies are stealing our lives is important. Previously in my substacks I had written part 1, covering the first 1/3 of the book. This covers the last 2/3.
  • The DemoKKKrats' Three Civil Wars (And they Can't Win Any)

    Self/substack | 3/23/2025 | LS
    For almost a year I have been emphasizing the fact that the DemoKKKrats have two major internal civil wars, neither of which they could win without massive electoral damage to the party. Civil War #1 was the Pale/Hamas vs. Jewish/Israel civil war. The DemoKKKrats cannot come down too hard on the Hamas Murder Pirates without losing---as they did in Michigan in November---their Muslim support. Trump didn't have to do anything except promise some generic version of peace. He did not overtly side with Israel, even though that is in fact where his support lies. DemoKKKrats unfortunately for us cannot alienate...
  • How to Defeat the Courts: Real Practical Responses

    self | 3/19/2025 | LS
    Many pundits, including lawyer Robert Barnes, are harping on impeachment of these rogue judges. I think that has little, if any, hope of success. Nor do I think defunding or changing the jurisdiction of the courts will work. We're easily 20 votes in the House and 20 votes in the Senate short of either of those options. But Trump is winning, and can continue to win, by other means, practical means, historically time-tested means. First understand that TIME IS ON OUR SIDE. These agencies have been closed. People have been fired. Buildings are locked up. Some are sold already. Policies...

    Hi all. Dreading listening to people like Brett Baier or the harpies at MSNBC on election night? I gotcha covered. In 2020, Rich Baris, Tracy Beanz and I---on 2 weeks notice and no funding---did a six hour live election night coverage that saw 800,000 viewers come in. Many said in comments they dropped out of Faux and CNN. This year Seth Keshel and I will be hosing the broadcast. Seth is an expert stats guy who has run the numbers in detail on every single state. We have direct access to Decision Desk for the most accurate info. We have...

Ds have LOST ground since 2020; Rs have added 132,000 since 2020 . . . and have consistently added every month. Maricopa Co. is now over R+3, when it was about even in 2020. Pima Co. Ds have lost a full point.

    1) Via my court source, "Zen Master," (who has never, ever been wrong about major decisions and/or timing: a leftist attorney argues that the Bragg NY case against Trump WILL encounter a delay of approximately a year, saying that like his tax case it is "going down the same road." 2) Trump's Truth Social is merging with another company in a deal worth $4 billion, much of that to President Trump, virtually nullifying the entire judgment by lunatic "Itchy" Erdogan---EVEN IF IT HELD UP on appeal. God works in mysterious ways. Oh, and Baris released his national poll yesterday with...

    self | 11/22/2023 | LS
    Just some observations on general polling: *In 2020, with perhaps a very rare outlier, President Trump did not lead in a single national poll. Today he leads in almost all. For ex., Emerson, Trump +4, but if RFK, Jr. in the race, +6. In CNN, NBC, NYTimes, Trump is up from 2-4. He leads in the RCP average, which Faux News always manages to bring down with an anti-Trump poll. Right now RCP has Trump +2.2, or outside what many of us think is the "margin of fraud" based on 2020. (Remember, they had FIVE MONTHS of "mules" in 2020....

    Hi everybody, I don't get a chance to post here as much any more because my M-F "Today's News" column at www.uncoverdc.com takes a LOT of time. It's free. I usually take the top 20-40 stories in politics, culture, economics, and entertainment, but rely on FR for some really outside stories that the mainstream Hoax News media misses---and of course I add my own nick names and spin. (My two favorites are Nick Knack Paddywhack Give a Uke a Bomb for Haley and White Lizzo for Christy). At any rates, just thought I'd drop in with a few thoughts. *The...

    Barnes Brief (sent to subscribers) ^ | 9/15/2023 | Robert Barnes
    Below is the 14th Amendment brief that lawyer Robert Barnes wrote, which I think you'll all find very informative. It was sent only to subscribers, but I don't think he'd mind me reposting just this portion of his much longer newsletter. If he does, he knows my email. Let’s dispatch with the 14th Amendment argument more and more frivolous litigants file suit in to try to bar Trump from the ballot. Let’s start with the text itself. Of note, section 5 clarifies who can enforce this provision: “The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of...

    A few updates: I will appear on Faux News's "The Korean War" special with Brett Baier, Sunday night, May 28, 10:00. I know may of you are boycotting FAUX, and I respect that. Did this for an old filmmaking friend. Also, I have begun a MWF youtube show "Patriot's History," where I just read through "A Patriot's History of the United States" at 12 noon EST on the Wild World of History channel. Just started the Revolutionary War. We are 24 episodes in, all in the video archives. We are working to make "Patriot's History" in to a "John Adams/Sons...

    self | 5/10/2023 | LS
    Hi all, Haven't posted much here because of my substack but some events in the last few days shouted out "FreeRepublic!" 1) The Trump/RDS "race." There is no race. This was over before it began. My estimate is that RDS will get Kasich (the Mailman) level delegates, if that. I think with him at the latest poll at 17% vs. Trump, and Vivek Ramaswamy at 5%, RDS is closer to Vivek than he is to Trump, and I won't be surprised if Vivek doesn't push him hard. (Bannon thinks Vivek has topped, RDS settles at 15%. I think Vivek can...

    ABSTRACT Theories of scientific and technological change view discovery and invention as endogenous processes1,2, wherein previous accumulated knowledge enables future progress by allowing researchers to, in Newton’s words, ‘stand on the shoulders of giants’3,4,5,6,7. Recent decades have witnessed exponential growth in the volume of new scientific and technological knowledge, thereby creating conditions that should be ripe for major advances8,9. Yet contrary to this view, studies suggest that progress is slowing in several major fields10,11. Here, we analyse these claims at scale across six decades, using data on 45 million papers and 3.9 million patents from six large-scale datasets, together with...

    He was singularly responsible for introducing me around 2011-2012 to the Hollywood conservatives that made up the “Friends of Abe.” Andrew set up a dinner party at one of the finest steakhouses around for me to meet many of them, then paid for it himself. ​Perhaps Andrew was not as influential as the great Rush Limbaugh, but he definitely had a powerful voice, a reputation as the “Happy Warrior” on the right. Most people know Andre Breitbart for his maxim, “Politics is downstream of culture,” while forgetting that he did much to try to change that culture by joining with...

    Masters up now 1.7%. Rich says that election day voting will be very heavy R, including all those who are dropping their ballots off. Now, all, we have been instructed at various GOP clubs if you bring in a ballot mailed to you to drop off, do NOT just drop it off, but have THEM mark "SPOILED" on it and vote in person, otherwise, your ballot won't be counted until after election day.
