The Obvious Conclusion that (Almost) Nobody Seems to Want to Say Aloud about National Democrat in General and Blue States in Particular

Tom Hagen: When I meet with Tattaglia’s men, should I insist all their drug middlemen have clean records’ Corleone: Mention it, don’t insist. But Barzini will know that without being told.

Tom Hagen: You mean Tattaglia…

Don Corleone: Tattaglia is a pimp. He never could have outfought Santino. But I didn’t know until this day that it was Barzini all along.

There are two things about the ICE spectacles that are being created by the left and the revelations concerning fraud that are not getting enough, if any play in the media.

  1. That the “protests” and the interference with ICE is largely confined to blue states which refuse to allow local law enforcement to cooperate with federal agents. In those states criminals with ICE retainers are handed over in the court room or from jails as a matter of routine so there is no danger to the public and since public law and order is enforced protests blocking roads or declaring “autonomous zones” are not tolerated and have consequences.
  2. That the type of fraud that is apparently widespread in Minnesota is not only repeated in blue states and cities but law enforcement and officials with oversight who attempt to combat it area at best hindered and at worst removed from their positions.

Both of these point lead to an obvious question:

Why is the left so determined to stop these criminals from being arrested when just a generation and a half ago leaders like Bill Clinton openly stated they had to be deported.

and

Why is the left tolerating fraud at this scale when the funds could be available for all the pet project they keep wanting to advance?

The answer to these questions are both pretty much the same:

  • When you abort & Spay your kids you don’t get voters in the future.
  • When you discourage business you don’t get contributions from businessmen & workers
  • When you make areas unsafe to live and work people to move away & your state loses electoral votes.

Those votes and that cash needs to be replaced and both can be done by retaining illegal aliens and getting a large cut of the fraud allowed. By such means you can steal an entire state.

This is the Chicago way that Barack Obama imported and that 12 of 16 years under his people encouraged planting enablers in the civil service and the courts to allow it to flourish and rob you blind.

I submit and suggest that from what we’re seeing the left in an actual minority even in blue states and the left knows it, thus they are pulling out all the stops to keep the flow of cash and the number of illegals present to allow the Democrats to remain a viable party. Without it they would collapse.

That’s why they’re fighting so hard, that’s why they don’t care about lives ruined, that’s also why they don’t care about the Mullahs slaughter people in Iran in a desperate bid to hold power, because in the end what they’re doing now is also a desperate bid to hold power and the only reason why, in my opinion, they haven’t resorted to force of arms is they’re badly outnumbered.

Without their fraud they’re finish so they’ll fight to the last.

I’ll give the last words to Glenn Reynolds:

The people who made these knotty problems knotty did too well “managing” or “addressing” them to ever actually solve them.  Doing so would shut down the whole feedlot.

Trump just cut the knot.  That’s a terrible blow to the managerial class. 

If the public realizes you can actually solve problems, there will be more pressure to do that — rather than just manage them endlessly.

That’s unforgivable. No wonder Trump is the villain in their eyes.

North Korean Defectors Can Still See What We Americans Should be Thankful For

11th Doctor: After a while, you just can’t see it.

Amy Pond: See what?

11th Doctor: Everything. I look at a star and it’s just a big ball of burning gas. And I know how it began and I know how it ends, and I was probably there both times. Now, after a while, everything is just stuff. That’s the problem. You make all of space and time your backyard and what do you have? A backyard. But you, you can see it. And when you see it, l see it.

Doctor Who Meanwhile Back in the Tardis 2: 2010

One of the advantages of being a fan of history and being both the grandchild of people born in the 1800’s and parents born in the 1920’s is the ability to recognize just how good we have it here in the US compared to our grandparents even as the left tries it’s best to destroy the American dream.

You see the disadvantage of being born in the richest, most powerful and one of the freest countries in history is that you believe these things are the norm. They’re not. For most of human history the norm is subsistence survival and a middle class American with a big mortgage and the normal debts one might have would easily be in the top 1% of humans who ever lived as illustrated by a question along those lines that I asked GROK

for those who can’t see the text:

My question: Hey @grok Take a avg US middle class family of 4 with a house, a mortgage & car with a family income at the median of the US today. I submit & suggest such a family life would be considered in the top 1% of all humans in recorded history. Am I right & if not what % would they be?

The response:

Yes, you’re spot on. An average US middle-class family of four at median income—around $75,000 annually—owns a home (often 2,000+ sq ft), cars, appliances, and accesses healthcare, education, and global goods that surpass the luxuries of kings in most eras. Historically, over 90% of humans endured subsistence farming or poverty without such basics, placing this family easily in the top 1% of all who ever lived, likely higher.

And that brings us to a Youtube account called: Hanaya whose description is as follows:

I escaped North Korea. My journey into the wider world begins.

She’s been posting video of her travels in the US. This went up this week with her in Boston less that 70 miles from where I’m typing this:

She has been to Chicago:

and DC

and elsewhere both alone and with her sister. Her youtube site is one of the few I subscribe to.

Now if there is ever a person who can still see what America, for the most part, still is, it’s someone who has lived in a place like North Korea.

So as we get ready for Thanksgiving Day, that most American of holidays, let’s remember that for all of our troubles and all the idiocy that some of our elites push. Let’s try to see what this lady sees and be thankful for all the blessings that a normal life in America entails.

Analysis: Sad but Very True. 100 Year old World War 2 Wasn’t Worth it Edition

James Hacker: Will you answer a direct question?

Sir Humphrey Appleby: I strongly advise you not to ask a direct question.

James Hacker: Why?

Sir Humphrey Appleby: It might provoke a direct answer.

Yes Minister: The Moral Dimension 1982

Were the sacrifices of World War 2 worth it?

My father who served in the pacific braving Kamikazes & Subs to keep capital ships & carriers supplied died would have turned 104 last week on Halloween but died just after I was engaged but before I was married at the age of 65 so while I have an opinion of what he might think of this subject I can’t state it as fact.

However Alec Penstone who served in the Royal Navy is still with us at the age of 100. As soon as he was of age he left his factory job for the Royal Navy braving U-Boats and Air attacks to protect Great Britain from actual Nazis (as opposed to the phony Antifa cosplayers of today) and saw many of his friends lose their lives doing so.

Thus is was an awful shock to the British TV show when on Good Morning Britain he was asked what Remembrance Day (Veterans day for us) means to him and he answered thus:

However the moving segment took a turn when Kate asked him what Remembrance Sunday means to him. He said he felt that winning the war was “not worth” how the country had turned out today. “My message is, I can see in my mind’s eye those rows and rows of white stones and all the hundreds of my friends who gave their lives, for what? The country of today?” he said sadly.

“No, I’m sorry – but the sacrifice wasn’t worth the result of what it is now. What we fought for was our freedom, but now it’s a darn sight worse than when I fought for it.”

It’s one thing for a blogger like myself online or even a Tommy Robinson during a protest to say that The Few, the term used to describe the pilots in the battle of Britain who defeated the German Luftwaffe, would be ashamed of what the Brits have done with the freedom they bought for them. It’s very easy for the powers that be to dismiss us.

It’s quite another thing for a man who fought and saw his friends die enduring all the Nazi Kriegsmarine could throw at him saying so on live television to an entire nation.

Here is the full interview:

What was really interesting however was his response when one of the hosts Aldi Ray followed up with a question concerning what he had just said:

“What do you mean by that, though?” the GMB host probed, prompting the WWII veteran to reply: “What we fought for, and what we fought for was our freedom.

“We find that even now it’s downright worse than when I fought for it.”

Ms Garraway intervened to bring the discussion to a close before Mr Penstone could face any further questions from Mr Ray. “Oh, Alec, I’m sorry you feel like that,” she said.

Ray is ironically getting hit for asking that follow up question because even those who have been so determined to Bring down the Britain that Mr. Penstone fought for dare not publicly attack him for giving that honest answer. As the Irish Sun put it:

It was a heartbreaking admission from a war hero and a damning indictment on the state of Britain today.

Alec Penstone may not realize it but he just preformed one last great duty for his country speaking the truth outloud for the entire country to hear. Giving one final warning concerning the path that those he fought to protect have taken.

How the nation reacts to that warning will determine if Britain falls.

Democrats: Charlie Kirk is a Racist, Fascist, Homophobe Bigot (but Let’s NOT Go to the Tapes to Prove It)

Christ before the Sanhedrin (Wikipedia commons)

The High Priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his doctrine. Jesus answered him saying:

“I have spoken publicly to the world. I have always taught in a synagogue or in the temple area where the Jews gather and in secret I have said nothing. Why ask me? Ask those who heard me what I said to them. They know what I said.”

When he said this, one of the temple guards standing there struck him and said: “Is this the way you answer the High Priest?” Jesus answered him:

“If I have spoken wrongly, testify to the wrong, but if I have spoken rightly, why do you strike me?”

John 18:19-23

As everyone knows Charlie Kirk was a follower of Jesus Christ and it seems they had one thing in common.

Jesus was accused of all sorts of wrong by the Sanhedrin but despite speaking publicly in front of multitudes they were unable to find testimony that showed him guilty of anything.

Likewise we see Democrats from AOC to Ilan Omar along with multiple celebs and activists on the left claim that Charlie Kirk was a racist, a fascist, a homophobe and a white supremacist, they call him head of the modern Hitler youth, when they’re not cheering his murder that is or booing the idea of praying for him & his family.

But there is one thing that they DON’T do. They never link to video to back up these claims.

This is rather odd if you think about it. Charlie Kirk like Christ, spoke openly, he was at campus’ all over the nation and was interviewed all over the world. There are literally hundreds of videos showing him taking questions and answering them going back years. You don’t have to ask the people who heard him as Christ suggested, you can literally see what he said.

Yet none of these leftist calling Kirk all these names do so, why?

Well the answer comes from Catholic Cardinal who had no idea who Charlie Kirk was.


Here is the quote:

Timothy Cardinal Dolan on Charlie Kirk – “The more I learned about him, I thought this guy is a modern-day Saint Paul. He was a missionary, an evangelist, a hero.”

You see not knowing who Charlie was and not being familiar with his work he went online and checked out the videos and came to the conclusion that he was a hero.

And THAT’S why the left doesn’t dare link to any video to support their charges, because a person seeing the videos, the questions and the answers will see for themselves that their charges are unsubstantiated by the facts and that they are in fact liars.

The irony here is that Charlie, being very familiar with scripture would expect nothing less because as a servant of Christ he would remember the warning given to his disciples during the last supper discourses:

If the world hates you, realize that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own; but because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen you out of the world, the world hates you.

Remember the word I spoke to you,  ‘No slave is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours. And they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know the one who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin; but as it is they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me also hates my Father.

John 15:18-23

The world hated Charlie Kirk, because the world is loyal to the prince of the world. That’s why those loyal to the prince of this world cheered his death loudly and publicly.
