Five Quick: 0-3 Trying to Kill Trump Thoughts Under the Fedora: Methinks the Left Objects too much, Who Moi?, Trump Now 2nd on the All Time List, Don’t know much about the “Teacher of the Month” from CA, A class closing act

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!

A Short Open Letter to Healthcare Companies & Medical Schools who Don’t Want to be Sued out of Existence

Draxel Forg: What’s happening?

12th Doctor: Right on cue. Take a look, Eagle men, from Shanroth, planet of the lawyers, that’s one of their justice cruisers, action lawsuit class I shouldn’t wonder.

Doctor Who (Big Finish) The Best Laid Plans 2019

Ladies & Gentlemen:

I would like to call to your attention the recent spate of healthcare workers doing the following:

  1. Openly calling for the death of political opponents
  2. Openly calling for healthcare workers to injure patients with political views they dislike
  3. Openly calling for healthcare workers to not treat patients with political views they dislike
  4. Actually refusing to treat people due to political opinions
  5. Openly taking public political opinions as representatives of the industry or individual healthcare facilities

Needless to say this may be problematic in terms of publicity but I would like to point out a far greater risk to your business than simply bad press.

Medicine, for all its advancements is still an inexact science.

Unlike engineering where the tolerances for various metals and structures can be predicted if the products are properly made, different people will react to treatments differently. There is always a chance that a problem will arise with any med or any treatment or any procedure.

Of course there is always the factor of human error which can be reduced by vigilance but by nature never completely eliminated. Which is why Doctors & Nurses and healthcare workers with any sense carry malpractice insurance.

Now consider for a moment a conservative who comes to one of your facilities, a facility where the doctor, or the nurse, or the person passing meds or even the kitchen staff has been posting on public social media their disgust at conservatives &/or calling for their harm.

Think of what happens if an open conservative comes to your facility for any sort of treatment and has

  • A reaction to meds
  • An adverse reaction to a procedure
  • A bad complication
  • An unexpected death

In any of those cases the patient and/or the family naturally questions why this has taken place. What kind of conclusion might be reached if any of those online political activities come to light concerning any person involved in his or her treatment? How fast will the family conclude that this was not part of the normal risk of treatment but a deliberate act against a perceived “enemy”?

How quick do you think a family like that will decide to sue?

How fast will such a suit become a cause célèbre in the conservative community?

How quickly will pols seeking to make hay grab onto such a case?

How much would that cause previous patients and their families to give scrutiny to any past visit that did not have a satisfactory outcome?

And most importantly will the insurance company that covers your facility decide at best to raise the rates they are charging because of the risk or fight any payout on the grounds that a deliberate failure to provide the proper care is a criminal act?

All of those risks are after the fact, consider this:

A medical college that openly pushes to radicalize doctors or nurses to consider those who don’t share an instructors hatred of conservatives or ICE or Trump as not worthy of treatment.

Can you imagine the risk you will have if you hire a graduate of such a program? Can you picture all of those consequences I already named exacerbated by hiring a person who has done any of those things listed above or marched in events during their college years? The negligence argument writes itself.

That being said I offer the following suggestions:

  1. Instruct your HR departments to screen potential hires social media posts for any such statements supporting violence as noted above.
  2. Instruct your HR departments to inform colleges that train medical professionals that candidates from any facility whose program is even perceived to encourage bias based on political affiliation will not be considered for any position
  3. Discharge any person who has precipitated in any of the above actions
  4. If discharge is not possible due to contract limitation give written notice that any such behavior as noted above will result in immediate discharge from the facility & a lawsuit to recover damages by the facility
  5. Implement immediate training for existing staff to make it clear that any such action will result in immediate discharge & a possible lawsuit to recover damages
  6. Implement training for all new hires to make clear that any such action will result in immediate discharge & a possible lawsuit to recover damages.
  7. Make such a policy an official policy of your facility

Such actions will protect you and your facility from the enormous financial risks involved in this behavior contrary to the best traditions of the medical profession.

It’s your call.

Five Christmas Season Thoughts Under the Fedora: The Standard of How Great the US is, Human Progress Two Measures, Too accustomed to Trump’s Success or A Psi-op? $2.63 That’s five water/sewer bills and Temps, Finally Yes Minister in Minnesota

For all the horrible things our friends on the left say about America being racist, sexist unequal etc etc etc let me make one important point.

This horrible America of which you speak is so great that given the choice between going back to their own countries at no cost to themselves with $3000 in their pockets (An amount higher than the average yearly income in 54 countries) or staying in the US and risking arrest and deportation the majority choose the former.

On twitter today saw a post about how difficult it was to program back in the punch card era compared to today when you can literally ask a AI to create code for you. The fellow marveled at the progress in just 50 years and he’s right about that but let me tell you want progress really is:

Being able to feed a family of four a hot meal with meat for less than an hour wages? THAT’s human progress that king and princes could only dream of.

It’s very easy to forget that Donald Trump has been back in office for less than a year. This is because of his insane work ethic and the breakneck speed that things have been

The amount of things he has managed to get done in these first 11 months is so vast that any other president in history would have considered it a grand set of accomplishments for a full term and quite a few presidents would have been lucky to accomplish as much over two terms. Any person with a even a slight grasp of US history could see this.

Yet lately my X feed has been bombarded by posts aren’t happening fast enough in the Trump administration from cracking down on fraud to arrests, particularly arrests. The post seem unrelenting

I’m thinking this is one of two things or possibly both.

It could be that people just have gotten so used to Trump getting things done fast they can’t grasp the idea that getting things done in Washington is the exception not the rule. It’s sort of how Patriots fans were spoiled by Tom Brady basically making a trip to the Super bowl every other year and acting like something was wrong when we didn’t

It could also be a PSI-op to anger Trump supporters to trick them into staying home in 2026 and try to drive his numbers down.

Frankly if it was my job to try to foment dissent within MAGA that’s how I’d try do it.

One must always remember that most pols aren’t saints. There are some who will do the right thing out of principle (although they might disagree on what the “right thing” is) but in the end most will only do the right thing if the incentive is greater than doing the wrong thing or nothing at all.

That’s reality

When I went to mass yesterday I passed by the cheapest gas station in town which is conveniently located next to my church.

Gas was $2.63 a gallon. That’s a full 16 cents less per gallon than it was two months ago.

Over the course of a year that’s enough saving for me and DaWife to pay 5 water bills or allow us to go out to eat 5 times.

If that’s not enough Friday when I went to work there were no temps in the building.

That it itself is not unusual for the day after Christmas, but what WAS unusual is that Friday was the first day this month when there were no temps in the building.

Last year the temps were gone by December 3rd and at no time during the Biden presidency where they here for more than a week.

The Trump boom is coming in fact it might be already here.

One of the things about importing people from a different culture who don’t want to become Americans is importing a different value system.

A great illustration of this was shown nearly 50 years ago on the TV show “Yes Minister” in an episode called: “The Moral Dimension”

A great explanation of how this works comes from this excellent post on X

Key Quote:

The weird thing about this to me was that whenever I turned down such an offering, it was treated as a grave insult. I was the one in the wrong, and not the fraudster trying to bribe me. They considered it rude that I was in their country and refused to accept how things got done. After all, why did I not want to help my tribe by helping their tribe?

Let me repeat: in these cultures, FRAUD IS NOT EVEN A CONCEPT. There is only what helps your tribe.

They people have no concept that stealing is wrong, unless you’re stealing from them. The stealing doesn’t shock these folks, what shocks them is that we weren’t already doing it on the scale that they are.

Until that changes things won’t change.

Under the Fedora: Georgia on my Mind, My 2022 speculation proves true, Could you have done it?, God Knows What he’s doing, Signs Inflation numbers and Busy Temps

The fact that Georgia election officials are “not disputing” the fact that hundreds of thousands of early votes were illegally counted in election 2020 effectively costing Trump the state (and likely the GOP a senate seat) tells me how far the worm has turned.

4 years ago such an admission would have been the height of courage putting futures and prosperity at risk.

Today it’s a matter of fact statement.

I predict that as the risk to people’s futures decrease more of these kinds of admissions will come from various states. After all as I’ve said before cowardice is the norm courage is the exception.

At the time of the Mar-a-lago raid I wrote this:

The sheer panic on the left concerning a 2nd Trump term suggest to me something different.

Could it be that the left is even more corrupt than we think? Could it be that the stuff that they’ve been doing, enabling and coordinating is even more horrific than that worst conspiracy theorists have imagined? Could it be that the Epstein’s of the world are the norm for the left and not the exception and that they’ve only caught the one?

Given what we’re seeing in terms of fraud in Minnesota and the amount of Dems and their friends getting Epstein exposure these days this statement is becoming more and more apparent.

The President took some heat for his statements after the murder of Rob Reiner & wife by his own son. I would not have made those statements & think they were a bit crass. Said heat however is meaningless because:

  • It’s primaraly coming from people who never supported him anyways
  • Trump being a tad crass with enemies is the norm & not a shock
  • Many of these same people are still cheering Charlie Kirk’s murder

But for me the real question is this: If somebody spent the last ten years calling you a Nazi & trying to get you jailed would you be able to be gracious at the moment of their death?

Cue Jim Hacker:

One of the things that has become clear to me in the last year has been how much the steal of election 2020 has paid huge dividends for the nation in a completely unexpected way.

If the steal had been foiled everything from USAID funding to the fraud in Minnesota would likely never have been exposed. VP Mike Pence of the deep state would have steered the country to protect such folks & a lot of what has been going on for decades would have remained under the radar.

Instead Trump has spent the first year of his return not only actively working for the country but exposing evils that have been ignored and tolerated for decades.

This not only is “The Lord works in mysterious ways” squared but affirms what I consider the actual definition of faith in God which is:

Trusting that God knows what he's doing even if he hasn't told you

Finally the inflation numbers where “unexpectedly” excellent showing signs of an improving economy but to me the real sign of that was yesterday at work were I found myself on loan from my normal Inventory Control Duties to a client who had a burst in sales six days from Christmas keeping me on my feet for 8 hours.

One year ago all our “peak” temps were gone by Cyber Monday lasting only 4 days after black Friday.

Yesterday it has been 22 days since Black Friday and a good chunk of our temps were still at work.

I doubt I will see them on Monday as even a Trump economy can’t change the laws of physics & cause packages shipped on the 22nd to reach destinations around the country by the 24th but the fact they are still here (and the suggestion that a few will be kept on to deal with the returns season) tells me the economy is about to hit the accellerator.

If it does I suspect it will have the same effect on election 2026 as the fall of Atlanta did on the election of 1864
