  • How the Left Plays the Long Game

    American Thinker ^ | 21 Jul, 2024 | Rob Jenkins
    Remember that schoolyard game we used to play as children, where one person turns their back and everyone else runs toward them, until they turn around and you have to stop in your tracks? Then they turn their back again, and you see how close you can get before they spin back around? Note that, if you’re one of the runners, you never have to go backward. You just stop and remain in place until they’re not looking, then move forward again. That is essentially the story of Marxist leftism over the past 100 years or so, in the United...
  • The Energy Transition Ain't Happening: Hydrogen In Australia

    Manhattan Contrarian ^ | 20 Jul, 2024 | Francis Menton
    These days, there is lots and lots of news about how the supposed “energy transition” is not happening. There’s so much news on this subject that I could devote this entire blog to that subject alone and have plenty to occupy my time. Expect multiple posts about this topic over the next several weeks. To whet your appetite, I will take you today to Australia, where we find the latest news on the inevitable collapse of impossible dream of “green” hydrogen as the means to make electricity from wind and sun work. But before getting to the latest news, kindly...
  • Migrant warfare: Fed source says illegal who urged squatting in Americans' homes worked for Venezuela's military intelligence -report

    Was this illegal part of a Venezuelan or Cuban military intelligence operation? Why, again, was he let in? Joe Biden's open borders may be about more than just replacing the electorate. The New York Post found that one of the most malevolent of the border surgers, a Venezuelan illegal named Leonel Moreno, who famously urged other illegals to squat in Americans' homes and waved hundred-dollar bills around to boast of his public benefits on TikTok, is being investigated by the feds for his military intelligence work for the Marxist dictatorship back home. According to the Post: Joe Biden's open borders...

    The three top stories of the week are the Crowdstrike failure which interrupted internet service to millions; the attempted assassination of Donald J. Trump, and the ongoing Democratic coup against President Biden. You may recall that Crowdstrike was the source of the lie that Russians hacked the DNC files, so I have no sympathy for them. Apparently, there is little legal recourse for the victims of this outage, but I can imagine many institutions and businesses will be reconsidering continuing this service. As for the attempted assassination, it bears a resemblance to the Crowdstrike outage in that it underscores the...

  • Ivana Trump's N.Y.C. Townhouse Where She Died After Falling Down Stairs Gets Another Price Cut to $20M

    Ivana Trump’s New York City townhouse is still up for grabs as it nears two years on the market. The property was first listed for $26.5 million in November 2022, just four months after the businesswoman died at age 73 after falling down a staircase inside the home, PEOPLE previously reported. In September 2023, the price was slashed down to $22.5 million before the listing was removed altogether in November that same year, according to property records. It was listed again in June at an even lower price of $19.5 million.

    “Her name is Ann. She lives in rural America, drives a minivan and is pro-life. While she has always been protective of her four kids, she’s become increasingly religious and concerned about the welfare of other children.” Cue the ominous music. You may not know it, but “Ann” and others like her have been identified by Biden’s Dept. of Homeland Security as top “radicalization suspects.” Training profiles, just like “Ann’s,” are used by the office of Terrorism and Violence Prevention to inform agents on who to keep a close eye on. Shamefully, this is just one in a series of...

    The body of a New Jersey dad reported missing just before Father’s Day was recovered 100 miles from his home, New Jersey State Police said, but the mystery of what happened to him is still unsolved. Family members reported Isaac Bishop, 33, of Irvington, missing on June 11, authorities said. His body was found June 30 around 2:30 p.m. in a heavily wooded area near 13th Avenue in Weymouth Township, Atlantic County, a state police spokesman confirmed. The cause of death was not disclosed and his family is searching for answers. “From Our Family: Thank you so much to everyone...

    “Biden has been jabbed at least four times. This is his third covid diagnosis. The shots are working great.” — Jeff Childers, Coffee & Covid. There was a lot of talk about divine intervention at the Republican Convention this week. The country has witnessed a rush of seemingly providential events since the fateful night of June 27th when, to universal horror, “Joe Biden” was unmasked as The Phantom of the White House. The attempt on Donald Trump’s life Saturday, with its intimations of blob involvement, was only the latest of countless trips, hoaxes, capers, and ops that smacked of demonic...

    A letter from Sen. Josh Hawley, citing whistleblowers inside the Service, suggests just that. President Trump was subject to an assassination attempt the Secret Service should have protected him from. Congress has been asking questions all week, and met with mostly stonewalling from the agencies involved. Now Sen. Josh Hawley is hearing from Secret Service whistleblowers, about yet another problem. According to the Daily Wire: Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) said on Friday that most of the security personnel at former President Donald Trump’s Saturday campaign rally had been “unprepared and inexperienced” DHS personnel rather than actual members of the U.S....

    History and Islamic law provide the framework for an analysis of why Muslims hate the Jews and Israel. During WWII, film director Frank Capra produced seven films under the theme of Why We Fight. In these films, Capra explained the war to American service-people and civilians, and urged them to unite in the complex and labor-intensive task of defeating the Axis Powers and defending American values. Today Americans need to understand why Hamas fights. Without understanding that their goals are completely antithetical to Western civilization, we cannot fathom either the depths of barbaric depravity Hamas inflicts on the Jewish People...

    Socialists are desperate to save their power base from Donald Trump, and we are naïve if we think they will let an honest election stop them. Robert Kennedy Jr. stated that Biden is more dangerous to democracy than Donald Trump. Robert is misguided; Biden is senile and does not pose a threat to anyone. It’s the entire Democrat party that’s the greatest threat to our democracy. During the 1960 presidential debates, Robert’s uncle, John Kennedy, highlighted the ideological difference between the Democrat and Republican parties. “We have a different philosophy for achieving the same objectives,” he said (emphasis added). The...

    …But as the 2024 Republican National Convention in the garrison state of downtown Milwaukee winds down, a more definitive transformation of the Trumpist creed is under way, chiefly in the selection of Ohio Senator J.D. Vance as Trump’s running mate. Trump’s own listless, meandering, and astoundingly long acceptance speech on the convention’s last night only made it all the more clear that the MAGA torch is being passed to a more focused and clear-eyed generation of ideologues, with Vance as their de facto leader. But the party’s fulsome embrace of a blood-and-soil brand of economic nationalism, as epitomized by Vance’s...

    The left is obsessed with falsifying American history. For these radicals, the Founding Fathers did not write the Constitution to form a more perfect union; it was merely a ploy by racist white males to protect slavery. Similarly, those who settled America were not seeking a better life for their families; their aim was genocide against peaceful indigenous people who were careful stewards of the environment. The latest example of this historical falsification recently occurred in New York City, where President Biden, accompanied by Governor Kathy Hochul and rock star Elton John, assembled for the grand opening of the Stonewall...

    Local actress Ya Hui has been cast as a single mum with an eight-year-old son in upcoming Mediacorp drama Uniquely Ours, despite not having kids of her own. In a recent interview with 8World, the 37-year-old revealed that she used her experience as an aunt and learnt from her friends who are mums to play Lin Minchen. "It's really hard to be a modern mother. You can't scold your kids too harshly and have to consider their feelings and worry about mental trauma," she said. In contrast, she suggested that mums in the past didn't have the luxury of "thinking...
