President Trump hosted Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney at the White House this week, and again floated his idea to make Canada “the 51st state,” to which Carney replied, “There are some places that are never for sale.” Trump’s reply to that was, “Time will tell.” This insulting idea that one country can simple “acquire” another one–even if that country is not interested in being acquired–has become almost casual standard operating procedure for President Trump, and though Democrats / liberal-Leftists are generally appalled by it; strangely, I don’t see much pushback from Republicans / conservatives. Instead, I hear excuses such...

Who is the woke, radical left more angry at? A white woman named Shiloh Hendrix who said a very offensive word to a 5-year-old black child or a black person who shot and killed a 7-year-old black child named Breon Allen Jr.

Abbott’s statement: “(It is) a significant achievement (by Anthony Albanese) to be the first Prime Minister since John Howard and the first Labor Prime minister since Bob Hawke to be returned to government ……… What I really do want to say though is to reassure people who voted Liberal (in Australia that means conservative because the biggest conservative party is called the Liberal Party) today and people who normally vote for the coalition not to lose heart. At our best we are the freedom party. We are the tradition party. We are the patriot party and at our best I...

I'm calling it right now: Payton Jackson will be the first female U.S. President.

Adam Schiff: "If the cashier in South San Francisco at 10 o'clock at night believes that Democrats are a---h---s because the shampoo was locked up and my stuff got stolen out of the trunk, we've got a major problem that we have to address."

VIDEOThe Spanish Legion was modeled after the French Foreign Legion yet it has several significant differences. Although the enlisted ranks of the French Foreign Legion are composed entirely of non-French citizens, the members of the Spanish Legion are almost entirely Spaniards. Another difference is that the Spanish Legion march is much faster than the French Foreign Legion march. In fact, as you can see, the Spanish Legion marches so rapidly that you can be forgiven if you think the video of their march is being played at fast speed although I assure you that it's not. The Spanish Legion uniform...

The Media has been covering up the reality of January 6 for over four years now. Prager U CEO Marissa Streit interviewed two “influencers”–John Strand and Brandon Straka– who were arrested, jailed, and nearly financially ruined in what appears to be a clear attempt by the Biden administration to make an example of them. If you have an open mind and heart, you will outraged at what you see. You will learn shocking information you’ve likely never heard before. President Trump pardoned / commuted the sentences of those involved. Getting these Americans out of prison was a great first step....

Judge Boasberg has said he will pursue contempt charges for those who did not follow his unconstitutional verbal order to turn around a planeload of deportees en route to El Salvador. He wrote a long rant basically saying that even unlawful orders have to be obeyed until they are ruled to be unlawful. Here is my open letter to him (only published here but if somebody could help me get it to him I would appreciate the help): An appeals court just issued an order forbidding you from eating, drinking, pooping, peeing, farting, burping, or breathing until you have in...

The Passover display at the Greenfield Giant Eagle had Coca-Cola with high fructose corn syrup instead of sugar, which means that it’s not kosher for Passover. I’m Jewish. If I was a crazy, woke, radical leftist, I would have gotten very upset, and seen this as a deliberate act of antisemitism by one of the store employees. But I’m not a crazy, woke, radical leftist. So I saw it as an honest mistake, and did not get upset.

14 months ago, I wrote this blog post, which I titled, “How thoughtful! Governor Newsom is trying help the other 49 states to solve their illegal immigration problem by encouraging all of their illegal immigrants to move to California. I hope his plan works!”Now I’ve got some more good news: Barbara Lee, who is running for mayor of Oakland, California, wants to pay homeless people from other cities to move there.The San Francisco Chronicle just reported this interesting detail about Lee’s platform:https://www.sfchronicle.com/eastbay/article/oakland-mayoral-candidates-differ-proposals-20192308.php“Lee said she wants to test a guaranteed income pilot for homeless people”As a person who does not live...

A conservative YouTuber who calls himself “The Critical Drinker” gave a positive review to the new movie “Wicked.” I haven’t seen the movie, but I totally agree with him that movies should be judged on their own merits, and not based on the political ideologies of the actors who are in the movie. His praise for this movie is a great argument against the “cancel culture” that is so common today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYtRO5S9g1k

Bannon interviews Freeper

[H/T Oratam]Video Notes: A trucker, who drives a "fifty-three foot step deck", demonstrates with screen captures of his cell phone that the phone app he normally uses to find loads to hall doesn't show the numerous requests for loads expected for disaster areas. Normally there's a boom of substantial hauls of large equipment (bulldozers, excavators, cranes, generators, pumps, tree trimming equipment etc.) from numerous locations including military bases. This time, there are no such loads within the expected 125 mile radius of Asheville, North Carolina. His broker called and reported that he can't find any of the expected loads going...

We went to Asheville, NC to Help, and its WORSE , much worseI just watched a 25 minute video (at 2x speed) about a group of men driving supplies to North Carolina hard hit areas.A group of men prayed and set off to deliver a trailer full of supplies. They showed the condition of the roads, and one problem they would summarize after the day's events, is that GPS is displaying the one good road available to them as blocked, and instead sent them to blocked roads which cost this crew of men hours. Because GPS is giving this...

Quit conflating Veteran's Day with Memorial Day by posting stories of the feats of Veterans who did not die while serving. You are disrespecting those who gave all in the service of their nation! Jerks
