THE LAST HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY?
“If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than live as slaves.” ---Winston Churchill
Happy Fourth of July! Today we celebrate the founding of America’s freedom by commemorating the greatest act of political and moral genius in human history – the writing of The Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson. An excellent way of doing so would be for your family and loved ones to gather together and read it aloud, savoring every extraordinary word.
Savor the words well, for it is quite possible that this may be our last happy Fourth – if we do not take Churchill’s warning to heart now, not waiting until next year when it will be too late.
To do so, we must be specific and explicit about the threat of enslavement we are facing. In Churchill’s day it was external – Nazi Germany. For us today, the threat is internal within our own borders. Let us name and define it.
It is this: The Fascism of AINOs.
A UNIQUELY REAL SUPERPOWER AND IRAN
The message to the Mullahs of Iran
In the current American–Iran stand-off are a number of global players. That is hardly new, but what is novel is that, for the first time in decades, there’s almost no power that can obstruct or alter U.S. efforts to confront Iranian aggressions in America’s own time and fashion.
In other words, the United States is almost immune from the sort of pressures that usually coalesce to dictate, modify, or thwart U.S. decision-making in the Middle East.
Such liberation from outside coercion is singularly unusual in the post-war American overseas experience. Let’s count the ways this is happening across the globe.
TRUMP TRIUMPHS IN ASIA
President Trump has returned from the G20 summit in Osaka Japan in triumph.
During his time in Asia, the President reset relations with both China and North Korea. All while continuing to implement his strategic vision for the United States to a worldwide audience.
He engaged in talks with Russia to begin resolving regional disputes, reinforced our relationships with our allies in Japan and South Korea, then reengaged with Xi Jinping to bring the China trade agreement closer to fruition.
Trump capped all that with a stirring “spontaneous” offer to meet Kim Jong Un at the DMZ in South Korea. The pandemonium, drama, and historical nature of the next two days completely eclipsed much of the G20 summit.
However, it totally reinforced Donald J. Trumps position as the preeminent player on the world stage.
THE TERRORIST LEFT PREPS FOR 2020
The sooner the better
As the 2020 presidential election approaches, the Left is running drills to see how quickly and effectively their political hit squads can be deployed against Trump, his administration, and his Republican supporters.
A few other exercises—the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation process, the MAGA hat-wearing Covington Catholic students—have been rolled out, but those spectacles will pale in comparison to what’s in store for Republicans next year.
No cabinet official, administration employee, Trump family member, GOP candidate or regular Trump voter will be spared.
In just the past week, the Left’s pre-election tactics have been on full display.
DEMOCRAT PLANS FROM FANTASYLAND
When we were small children, before we had learned the laws of physics and economics, we thought everything was possible. Fantasyland could be real, so we thought.
Twenty of the declared Democrat candidates for president have held their first debate which demonstrated, with the possible exceptions of Gov. John Hickenlooper and Congressman John Delaney, that they have not outgrown Fantasyland.
These same politicians also say that U.S. citizens have a “right” to free medical care. Where did this “right” come from?
Answer: it came from Fantasyland.
SURVIVOR
HALF-FULL REPORT 06/28/19
A Supreme Court decision cast a little shade on an otherwise great MAGA week.
*President Trump won a big victory when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi folded like a cardboard suitcase on a supplemental appropriation to deal with the border emergency.
San Fran Nan’s surrender kills a Democrat talking point, deepens the rift between Progressives and what passes for moderates in her caucus.
*The Commerce department needs to justify better it’s reasons for including a citizenship question on the questionnaire for the next census, the Supreme Court ruled Thursday (6/27), with Chief Justice Roberts voting with the libs.
But Roberts voted with the conservatives on the big issue – that Commerce has the right to ask the citizenship question – so the setback likely will be temporary.
*In another decision yesterday, the Supremes ruled that reapportionment decisions are not justiciable.
This kills, dead, for good and always Democrat efforts to encourage judicial gerrymandering.
*The Silicon Valley fascists are trying to rig the 2020 election, President Trump said Wednesday (6/26). It’s time to punish them.
Mueller will testify. Flynn’s new attorney thinks Team Mueller withheld exculpatory information. Dem presidential candidates commit mass seppuku on live tv. For that and more, read on:
THE HORRIFIC CONSEQUENCES OF DEFINING DEVIANCY DOWN
Volodymyr Zhukovskyy is what happens when you stop enforcing all the laws, for all the people. The photo of him above is at his arraignment in Springfield Mass. on Monday (6/21).
He’s 23, here from Ukraine on a green card. Here’s a timeline of his driving history provided by WMUR radio news. It’s a timeline of the horrific consequences of what happens when our politicians and judges define deviancy down.
UNDOCUMENTED AND AFRAID
It’s easy to see why criminals should be prioritized for removal. But those who say all illegal aliens are criminals, by definition, have a fair point, too. If that’s too much to ask, then violent criminals, certainly.
But there is another group, more toxic to the body politic than most: the haughty, self-described “Undocumented and Unafraid” clique.
I mean the “undocumented” activists, organizers, and political operatives who have reaped the generosity of this country, only to spit in its face. Even before those to be deported for not showing up at their asylum hearing, these need to be kicked out of our country, unafraid no more.
YES, TRUMP CAN WIN THE BLACK VOTE IN 2020
POTUS signing an EO to help black colleges
It would seem tantamount to insanity to suggest that Donald Trump could win, or even make a sizable dent in, the African-American vote in 2020, but I submit that it's not quite as crazy as it sounds and he should give it a serious shot.
He should go into the black community as often as possible and make his case. This would be using identity politics in order to destroy it. (A noble task. Good riddance.)
Trump clearly has a good case to make — black and Hispanic unemployment are at their lowest numbers ever. By contrast, over the last few days, we have seen the Democrats go race crazy, outbidding each other with asinine proposals. Reparations are back, ratified by nearly all the candidates to one degree or another.
That is insane. And racist. Many, many blacks know full well it is and resent it.
