I was in a middle of a full screen game when DaWife told me about the attempt to kill Trump and when I checked my feed on the subject the first things I saw was the left either

  1. Claiming Trump had faked this
  2. Objecting to the right being blaming them for trying to kill him a 3rd time

I’m sorry but if you want people to not think these things perhaps go lighter on the whole “Trump is Hitler” thing, but in fairness given what we’re seeing these days in Maine if Trump WAS Hitler the left would likely support him.

Speaking of what we’ve been seeing

Here is the right response from someone who doesn’t like Trump


The summit of this nonsense was this:

Although the best answer was of course this:

Let’s go to the video


Grok’s Pointed gun standard which doesn’t count Palm Springs not withstanding this puts Trump two behind Lincoln for 2nd place on the attempted assassinations all time for Presidents.

It would be nice if he doesn’t get a chance to break the record but given the left being the left and that we’re not even half way into this 2nd term I think he might do so

Of course in fairness the idea that at an event full of people who would privately cheer him being killed someone would try to do so isn’t all that odd. BTW can you imagine if the assassin succeeded yesterday how difficult it would have been for the assembled press to feign public outrage with all those camera running?

It was interesting enough to see the general silence since the attempt took place with them there and nobody had a chance to establish the left’s desired narrative nor feed it to those in attendance.


We don’t know much about the teacher of the month who has been arrested except that:

  • He’s fast
  • He shot a Secret Service agent who fortunately had body armor
  • He managed not to be shot and killed, how I haven’t figured out
  • If this guy was “Teacher of the Month” it’s more proof you need your kids out of public school

Given the use of AI these days I’m going to be a bit more careful about what gets spread today about him as the technology to manufacture a narrative has exploded but I must say I think this take is pretty good:

.Already we are seeing people trying to say he’s Mossad or that it’s all about an excuse to start shooting in Iran again (he doesn’t need an excuse btw Actually it would be more legit if he was an Iranian agent instead of just the avg loony lefty, after all we’re fighting a war against them and in war the other side gets to shoot back.), but we can expect everything from gay fanboy of Tucker Carlson trying to impress him to fanatical Catholic upset at the clash with the Pope.

No matter how wacked some narratives are there are fools online who will buy them if it fits their worldview.

The trial will be interesting but I alas think Van Jones is right about one thing:

“I’m starting to worry about something, though, which is that the shooter survived, which means on Monday he’s going to court, which means there is a danger that people try to make him some sort of hero. You watch what happened with Luigi [Mangione], who shot a CEO to death and somehow became a hero. So, they said tonight you saw the worst of America. You saw the best of America. Tonight, you definitely saw the best of America. I hope on Monday we don’t see the worst again. 

The chances of this not happening are so zero.


Finally Trump’s press conference was both informative and gracious you can watch it here:

This was likely the best dressed news conference in the history of Presidential press conferences.

Could you imagine giving such a press conference less than an hour after someone tried to kill you? This guy has ice in his veins.

The security for the new event in 30 days should be interesting.

I’ll close with a quote from Stonewall Jackson:

He who does not see the hand of God in this is blind, sir. Blind!

Well the moment that the left has been waiting for and working hard to achieve has finally come.

Lefty pols, lefty press and lefty activists have been doing all they can to produce a dead body that they can decide to lay at the feet of Trump and ICE and now that has come to pass. Several thoughts:

  1. Do not think for one moment that the pols the activists and the press are sad about this woman’s death. I submit and suggest they are absolutely delighted. This has been their goal for almost a year and they’ve done all they can to produce it. While they might have preferred a person of color to be the body in order to cry “racism” the fact that this is a white lesbian woman with children will fill the bill in other ways for them. While publicly they will wail and gnash their teeth I assure you privately they are overjoyed, particularly at the prospect of taking Minnesota fraud out of the news loop.
  2. I feel bad for the dead woman in question and her family. Not because her actions didn’t warrant getting shot, trying to run over a federal agent is a fine way to get yourself killed but while it’s possible that she was all in on the “ICE is the Gestapo” business based on reporting she was persuaded to come down and her lawfully married spouse who was busy was busy blaming herself for making her come down there. Now her dead body and her family are going to be exploited again by the left and used as a prop. You’ll see tearful pols and angry leftists screaming bloody murder and talking fondly of the dead as a brave warrior for freedom when she was in fact a useful idiot who is more useful now that she’s dead than alive.
  3. This will have one of two effects on the rest of the useful idiots out there being paid to harass ICE who should at this point realize: “Oh my God this could have been me!”. I suspect given the idiocy of the left we will get a lot more of the 2nd than the first.
    • What the hell am I doing out here risking getting killed? The money isn’t worth it, I’m being used!
    • This lady will be remembered as a “hero” If it happens to me my life will have meaning and purpose at last!
  4. The fact that there is plenty of video evidence that this woman refused to leave her car when ordered and was trying to run down the Ice agent (whether due to panic or malice) will be immaterial to either the leftist pols or the leftist media or anyone else. Their narrative is out there and no actual physical evidence will matter. Tim Waltz particular is going to go all in as the topic is no longer him or the scandals in the state and even better for the left the President’s success in Venezuela and vs Russia and the revolt in Iran, all of them stories they do NOT want to cover, can be pushed to the back burner. Reality doesn’t matter to these people, just the narrative and now they have their narrative and they’ll push it through as many news cycles as they can, oh and don’t think for one moment that those involved in the fraud will use this distraction caused by this to destroy records etc that will hurt their cause.
  5. Finally Consider this from a non-political angle. You’re a woman with young children, what the HELL are you doing harassing federal agent during the day and taking this kind of risk? What kind of example are you setting? With your spouse filming are you really more interested in getting a viral moment than being a mother to your children? What parent sets this kind of example, and if she was pressured by her spouse what parent doesn’t resist such pressure for the sake of her kids? It reminds me of the transgender craze where mothers are spaying their own kids for status. It’s bad parenting, it’s narcissism and her kids are going to pay the price for the rest of their lives.

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.

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.

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.
