You want confirmation Captain? Take a look [Pointing to the Fleet burning] There’s your confirmation!


Tora Tora Tora 1970

For those of you eager to see what the sitting president does about banks suddenly failing let me remind you of something.

Three years ago some of us warned that allowing an election to be stolen rather than confronting the problem head on might have long term consequences that would shake the nation. But we were ignored, or cancelled or imprisoned

We ended up with mandates, drag queen story hours, an FBI acting like the left’s private gestapo, disaster in Afghanistan and War in Ukraine. And now bank failures while the crooks involved in this are amassing generational wealth.

All because people were afraid to make waves.

And if the bank with the woke risk assessor more interested in pride events than, you know managing risk or and Signature bank with former Democrat rep Barney Frank on the board fails, oh well.

Since both of these banks are Democrat donors or connected let me tell you how this is going to endvia Yes Prime Minister:

Sir Humphrey ApplebyBut if you knew they were crooks

Sir Desmond GlasebrookWe didn’t

Sir Humphrey Appleby: But you could have made enquiries..

Sir Desmond Glasebrook: You don’t make enquiries of that sort in the city. They seemed like decent chaps and decent chaps don’t check up on decent chaps to see if they are behaving like decent chaps.

Sir Humphrey Appleby: And ignorance is worth paying 14 million pounds for?

Sir Desmond Glasebrook: Ignorance is safety it’s not a crime to be deceived and it’s not our own money is it? [Turning to the waiter handing the him the check] Oh thank you.

Sir Humphrey Appleby: So What’s going to happen?

Sir Desmond GlasebrookWell there’s only one answer. The Bank of England must bail out Philips Berrison. No publicity keep it in the family, and that way we get our money back.

Sir Humphrey Appleby: At the taxpayer’s expense.

Sir Desmond Glasebrook: Of course.

Yes Prime Minister A Conflict of Interest 1987

You can bet your bottom dollar that Joe Biden’s bosses will make sure that these guys get every penny back to preserve confidence in the financial system because they are friends of the left .and if you and I have to pay for it, oh well.

Closing thought via Instapundit’s comment section:

“The government spent all weekend so they could bail out rich politically connected investors. Compare this to East Palestine Ohio where it took the government 3 weeks to even pretend to give a damn. Seriously the government worked over a weekend to just help out rich tech investors. Contrast that with 3 weeks before the feds did anything to even pretend to help out a community dealing with a massive chemical spill.”

#unexpectedly of course

Update: Don Surber Nails it:

As I watched the sudden collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank, I marveled once again at how a geezer’s administration run by tokens of diversity can wreck the economy by turning mundane functions — say, unloading transport ships — into extraordinary catastrophes, such as a supply chain backlog.

Reverse Missionaries in Action

Posted: March 12, 2023 by datechguy in Uncategorized

18th and 19th Century and early 20th Century Americans and Brits take a bow.

During those days hundreds if not thousands of missionaries visited Africa spreading the word of both Christianity and the rights of man attempting to teach the idea that man’s equality before God and before the law.

It is now the 21st Century and Western Civilization is having a crisis faith in both of those things, primarily due to the successful attempts by the left to de-Christianize us and lo and behold Africa is stepping into the breach:

From the Anglican Churches in Africa:

Conservative Anglican archbishops in Africa are challenging a decision by the Church of England to allow clergy to bless same sex couples’ marriages, warning that the move puts the worldwide Anglican Communion in further jeopardy.

It seems the missionaries who went there taught them too well.

“The Church of England is very good at making contradictory statements and expecting everyone to believe both can be true at the same time. That’s what they have done with this decision,” said Archbishop Stephen Samuel Kaziimba Mugalu of Uganda in his statement.

Kaziimba said that despite the English church’s insistence that it was not changing its doctrine on marriage, it is doing exactly that, the only significant difference being the terminology of wedding versus a service of blessing.

“The Church of England … has now departed from the Bible and their message is the opposite,” said Kaziimba. “They are even offering to bless that sin. That is wrong. As the Church of Uganda, we cannot accept that. God cannot bless what he calls sin.”

Or as they put it so well: “We can’t walk with you unless you repent.

Meanwhile an African reporter covering the White House says bluntly what American Reporters seem to be afraid to say both about the events of January 6th:

Some are now trying to crucify @FoxNews @TuckerCarlson over January 6th footage because America has decided to live a lie, blame only @realDonaldTrump and turn a blind eye to the massive security failure on January 6, 2021. But many people around the world continue to wonder, how on earth was it possible that in the greatest country in the world, in the most armed nation on the planet with the best and most expensive security agencies in the universe, one of the most important buildings was left unprotected and was easily taken over by protesters while the presidential election was being certified and the Vice President was in the building? Why is no serious investigation done to understand that security failure and hold accountable every person who was in charge that day? Isn’t that the most important investigation to be carried out?

Those are the words of Simon Ateba the Chief White House Correspondent of Today News Africa. He follows up with the most obvious question about the left’s reactions to those questioning the 2020 elections.

Also, why is it hard to understand that when an election takes place during a pandemic, with millions of people shipping ballots rather than showing up at voting centers on election day, many people would be skeptical about the results of that election, especially when the candidate who lost won the election day vote?

That’s a rather obvious statement and he continues but making a point I’ve been asking for years.

Instead of labeling people election deniers, is it not better to ensure that even the appearance of fraud is eliminated by having most people vote in-person on election day and with proper identification?

I submit and suggest the answer is clear, because if they do have an honest election the left can’t win or do you think it’s a coincidence that after Ron DeSantis got rules passed to clean up elections in Florida the Democrat party collapsed like a paper tiger?

While there are many places where these lesions did not take root as they might (see South Africa and Zimbabwe) we take our hats off to those missionaries who made the difference

The worst part of what we’ve seen in the Biden years so far is that almost all of it was completely preventable.

Jane Fonda calling for the murder of Americans who disagree with her live on national TV is the price we paid for not prosecuting her for treason as she sat on a NVA anti aircraft gun 50 years ago.

The left will decide the standards of justice, evidence and imprisonment of those charged & imprisoned for crimes on J6 is beyond the pale as soon as a GOP administration applies those same standards to ANTIFA & BLM when they attack people and property and not before.

Anyone who thinks that the left will treat any other GOP candidate, particularly Ron DeSantis differently than they have treated Donald Trump over the last 6 years is deluding themselves.

It doesn’t matter how many people on talk radio or sports shows suggest otherwise Tom Brady is not playing football this year

Everybody Gets to See, even Bernie Thompson!

If the MSM didn’t like McCarthy giving the J6 video to Tucker Carlson this is going to break them:

In the name of transparency, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has vowed to release the Jan. 6, 2021, security footage to the general public.

This done after the Carlson laid out the alternative to the official narrative is going to be the final straw.

On the plus side perhaps Bernie Thompson the Chairman of the Jan 6th might finally get a chance to see some of it.
