As Usual the great Bryon York does a spectacular Job in explaining how the desire to falsely call Donald Trump a rapist was pushed by a Judge with an agenda. Alas agendas are not the same as the law as ABC and George Stephanopoulos found out at a cost of 15 Mil.

There are plenty of lefty influencers who are well paid that Trump can soak, he should go after every one.

It will be a lot of fun to see the Trump organization continue to sue these folks and make them pay.

Justine Bateman and I both noticed something interesting about the left’s reaction to the CEO murder.

So not only is nobody calling for Gun Control as Justine notes, but nobody is blaming the gun this time for the killing, or as it should be if the left was consistent celebrating the gun.

Apparently people are the killers when the left approves of the killing and guns are the killers when they don’t.

Speaking of the left and violence…

Well without risk until Jan 21st 2025 anyway.

If the French Terror had social media Bluesky would be their spot.

Remember when it was said illegal immigrants were “doing jobs Americans aren’t willing to do anymore”?

Apparently the Israeli’s are the “illegal immigrants” doing the job that the west wants done but doesn’t want to dirty their hands with…

…albeit it’s done out of their own self preservation.

Of course I suspect Jihadi’s will get all the nuclear weapons they want once they’re done taking over England.

There is a group of people who will never listen to any kind of conservative media because in their mind to do so crosses some kind of “purity test” so the only time they get any kind of message that penetrates their bubble world is if someone else chooses to report it.

Enter Stephen A Smith:

The number of people who follow Stephen A Smith who have likely never consumed conservative media is considerable and he is a significant enough black voice that the MSM blacklists him at their peril, so when he is reporting that the FBI admits to having at least 26 informants on the ground on J6, that’s going to open quite a few eyes.

It’s as if the whole corrupt mess is collapsing and Trump isn’t even sworn in yet.

Podcast Checkmate 8.7 Million Views Worth (Really 11 Million)

Control: This is an emergency. Control must be believed and obeyed! No one on the Colony believes in Macra! There is no such thing as Macra! Macra do not exist! THERE ARE NO MACRA!

Doctor Who, The Macra Terror 1967

As of this writing (7:45 AM) the Joe Rogan Experience podcast with Donald Trump which dropped late last night has 8.7 million views.

This is extraordinary when you consider the following:

  1. The podcast runs almost 3 hours (2:58:50)
  2. Trump has been around for a very long time
  3. It’s been less than a half a day and overnight for a lot of those in the east

What are people who are watching the podcast seeing? A conversation lasting three hours. A rational conversation on all kinds of topics, from the great flip flops of the celebs who embraced Trump for decades up until the point where he was considerer a threat to the power of the left to boxing and MMF. The type of conversation that regular people might have. The type of conversation that gives you a pretty good picture of who a person actually is.

In other words the type of conversation that the media:

  1. Doesn’t dare have about Donald Trump because it would destroy their false negative narrative
  2. Doesn’t dare have with Kamala Harris because it would destroy their false positive narrative

Ironically after three hours with Rogan Trump went off to a rally that night, so much for the “tired” and “ducking” business.

Here is the whole thing:

There was some talk on COVID and the vaccines which is actually a weakness for Trump (but not in contrast to Harris/Biden) and the conversation on some Trump supporters being nervous about RFK’s role in the administration was interesting and groundbreaking. There was some real news broken there which is why it’s worth your time.

There was an early report that youtube was censoring the link but Rogan himself noted that there had been a tech issue that was resolved by delisting and then relisting the podcast. Frankly as a person who is still banned by Youtube it’s nice to see them not censoring this.

Rogan expressed an interest in having Harris on but apparently the sticking point was Harris teams’ insistence on making some topics off limits while Trump agreed to no limits on topics.

Of course if the crash and burn continues the campaign may change it’s mind figuring like a Hockey team pulling their goalie when down 5 with 2 minutes to go. What have you got to lose?

But Trump wasn’t the only one who was on a major podcast. JD Vance appeared on the Theo Von podcast for two hours

What is really interesting has been the feedback from so many of the over 2 million who watched the podcast who have been told by the media that Vance was “odd” or “weird” or “strange” and after seeing him for two hours found him the most normal guy in the room.

Read the comments to the podcast it’s shattering to the narrative that people have put out there on Vance and an excellent reminder that the BS the media sold during the time they hid Joe Biden cognitive decline is not the only lie that they have been pushing.

This is the type of thing people watch on their own, the media can’t hide or counter it and it’s the type of things that changes votes.

These two podcasts are the ultimate expression of bypassing the narrative and going directly to the people letting voters who wish to see people as they actually are. This is the ultimate expression of the 1st amendment.

The media will try to avoid these podcasts. I can hear them now:

This is an emergency. Media must be believed and obeyed! No one on the country believes in Trump/Vance Podcasts! There is no such thing as Trump/Vance Podcasts! Trump/Vance Podcast do not exist! THERE ARE NO PODCASTS!

If you want to know why the left demands censorship these two podcasts are it.

Checkmate.

Trump Has Passed The Cognitive Test By Adapting Dems Hardest Hit

Jacob Woodling: Quiet! Brigham Young has twenty seven wives and he hasn’t had half the trouble with them that I’ve had with the two of you!

Jacob Woodling: But Elizabeth: you don’t know what you’ll get.
Elizabeth: I know what I’ve had

Paint Your Wagon 1969

The primary plan of the Democrat party for election 2024 was three fold:

  • Lawfare against Donald Trump to cripple his candidacy (Backfired spectacularly)
  • Avoid the Biden record and discussion of Biden at all costs (partly successful)
  • Make the election about Donald Trump (failing)

The lawfare against Trump has been intensive, varied and if nothing else creative. Alas it has run so over the top that the American people have seen it for what it is. Combine this with the Supreme Court not enabling these legal machinations (alas Dems can’t cherry pick the judges on SCOTUS and while Justice Roberts Old Yellowstain alone is enough to send Steve Bannon to jail he’s not enough to change a vote with 5 justices already calling BS on the dems.

On avoiding Biden’s record there has been mixed success here on one hand there has almost been nothing said about the Biden record, at least nothing truthful. Democrats and their media buddies still insist the Biden economy, you know the one that caused my employer to give my shift the choice of either a 10% cut in hours or a voluntary day off today (I took the 10% and am going in for the half day today) is spectacular, still avoid calling him out of Russia, Israel, the rise of Iran and even the depletion of the strategic oil reserve not to mention the rise of antisemitism in leftist enclaves nationwide. The complaint media still has Joe Biden’s back there.

What they CAN’T hide since 9 pm on June 27th is the dementia and being desperate to conceal their complicity in enabling the grift for the last four years have gone all in for the big lie that they had no idea and thus are treating Joe Biden campaign’s insistence that he’s fine with all the credibility that they treat anyone who threatens the power of the left. This has become the only story in the country as the left is in full panic mode. It’s so bad that comics now feel comfortable making Joe Biden jokes and that a true disaster.

The real problem here is that if Biden fails to leave on his own and the left is unable to kill him without plausible deniability (don’t doubt for a moment they wouldn’t) the press is going to have to pivot to protecting Biden at all costs. That’s going to be a neat trick.

But it’s plan C, making the election about Donald Trump that has been the hardest thing. It’s been hampered by two developments, one foreseen and one unforeseen.

The foreseen element is that Trump was president for four years and his record of success compared to the Biden years is in living memory. To use my own example, as I mentioned my own job gave us a choice to lose 10% of our hours this week involuntarily or lose 1/4 of our ours voluntarily, I suspect it’s too make up for the paid holiday last week. During the Trump years when we still had 3 warehouses instead of one in the town where I work and when we still had a 2nd shift a paid holiday meant we were notified that we would have a mandatory 8 hour shift on one of our days off to handle the volume we lost. That’s how busy we always were. Lying about and avoiding the subject has proved effective with Trump haters but not so much with people actually effected by the Biden economy but that was always a tough sell and it was to be expected.

What was NOT expected was Donald Trump making the case that he at only 4 years younger than Biden is cognitive enough to see the situation on the ground and adapt. It’s very hard to get a person in their 70’s to change their style and Trump’s style is to be in the limelight.

But having seen the train wreck he quickly figured out that the best and wisest course of action is to keep doing his rallies that the left media continues to ignore (as they can’t allow Trump to be heard unfiltered) while not making headlines. I would even not be surprised if he is reconsidering his VP choice as some states move closer to his column. A popular GOP figure from Minnesota, Michigan or even New Jersey which is now in play could change everything. I would not even be surprised to see Governor Sununu being considered (to the horror of some of us) to bring NH into the fold.

The democrat media complex could not foresee that Trump. the lover of the spotlight, would have the discipline to do this and this discipline has driven them completely off the rails not only because it proves that even in his late 70’s his cognitive and strategic functions are still on the ball but because it doesn’t allow them to change the subject so the election can be about something other than Joe Biden.

It’s just goes to show that the good Lord works in mysterious ways.

Five Fast Thoughts Under the Fedora AOC out and about, Narrative Narrative Narrative, Unpeople, “Wolf” in the CPAC fold and the countdown to the end continues

Saw the article about AOC out with her guy and protesters bugging her about Gaza.

It’s rather ironic as she’s generally on their side but what really struck me is the photo of her out with her guy seemed so …. normal.

I’m partial to the sight of a young lady out with her man and frankly I’d like folks to leave her alone to enjoy those moment which are some of the most important in life.

I don’t watch a lot of the MSM but I made it a point of watching the reactions to the SCOTUS ruling on the attempts to kick Trump off the ballots in various blue states.

I found it hilarious that all of the stressed that the court didn’t acquit him of being an insurrectionist.

They didn’t have to, nobody has filed a charge of insurrection against him in federal court, in fact none of the J6 prisoners or defendants have in fact been charged with insurrection.

Their desperation to keep this narrative intact is very interesting and shows how far they’ve fallen, but it’s amazing how far a person will willingly let themselves fall if their paycheck is attached to it.

Have you noticed that in the minds of the media nothing delegitimizes an institution more than no longer following the narrative of the left.

Elon Musk, Ben Carson, The Supreme Court, Donald Trump, Naomi Wolf and yes J. K. Rowling were all feted and celebrated by the left for a very long time right up until the moment that they were perceived as a threat to the power of the left and the narrative they were selling.

Once they did as far as all those folks who loved and celebrated them were concerned they were now unpersons that needed to be destroyed.

Hey commies gotta commie.

There is an excellent substack by Naomi Wolf about visiting CPAC titled “Letter from CPAC” that you should read. There is one bit that jumped out at me:

We entered the Gaylord at the peak of CPAC, to an atrium thronged with happy visitors. My first, ignominious reaction to the scene, for which Brian rightly chided me, was: “This is not my culture.”

There was a buzz, from the moment we entered: a joyful vibe. After we checked in, changed, and ran down to join the festivities, we were struck by how pleasant and positive almost everyone was to us, and to each other. As someone reported to me the desk clerk had said, “I know they won’t approve of me saying this back in Southeast DC, where I come from, but you all are nice.”

Nice is a good and accurate word, a better description is “normal”

She goes though a list of folks she met and spoke to, many that she might disagree with on some issues and notes how different they are from how the media paints them.

It’s been six years years since I’ve been to CPAC the last time I went was with my sons and them seeing the MSM in action as they actually are taught them plenty.

Finally there are two reasons why you don’t see me at CPAC anymore. The first is as a full time employees where I work I only get so much vacation time and it won’t be till 2028 that I have the additional week that attending CPAC would require.

But the other is frankly that DaTipJar has dwindled to almost nothing, my last fundraiser only managed 25% of my goal and last month between subscriptions and tip jar hits I had exactly $2 left over after paying my writers.

I suspect the blog as a business will not survive long after the election and with money tight it will be an effort to survive to the election. It’s nothing about $5000 wouldn’t solve but that money simply isn’t there and in the end I don’t have a divine right to a single person’s dollar, I can only earn it by producing content that people think is worth it.

It’s disappointing to fail in business I’ve done so many times I’m just sorry I couldn’t provide better for my wife who deserves better. If I had followed my brothers into the civil service I might even now be retired or close to it with a pension, but I’m not ashamed of trying to make it as a writer/pundit and this blog has done good work, sometimes even important work. I’ve showed things and told things as they are which is why both Youtube now and pre-Musk twitter censored me. Best of all I’m proud to say I never sold out to push any narrative I didn’t believe in.

Hey in the end 16 years isn’t a bad run
