remember, when they get control of the court system, they have all three branches of government and then it is over for freedom. See Illinois. They control all the courts up to the Supreme Court, and freedom loving people don't have their day in court. But, they can spend legal fees on the initial case and appeals all the way up until they lose.
We're stuck with at least 80 percent of the illegals. We'll never get rid of them. Best we can do is force them to work by cutting off the free money and teach them the only way out of serfdom is education and hard work. It will take two generations. Meanwhile, finish the wall.
cutting off free money, and NOT allowing for any amnesty might send them back---at the same time reforming our immigration system too...see Gary Becker, "charge for it"
I'm not that pessimistic -- 30%, maybe. Getting rid of the anchor baby loophole will be huge, and I definitely expect that to happen. It might take 8 years (Vance Rubio 2028, maybe) instead of just 3.5 more, but I expect to see progress on many fronts noticeably accelerate with most or all nonparty aka 'national' injunctions out of the way.
"As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and a complete narcissistic moron."
Great post Mr Carter! Those of us still left on the ground here in Illinois must continue to fight the left every day. Not with violence, but with accurate, real world assessments of their unsustainable power lust as they drive the state into insolvency. Having lived here for most of my adult life, I know it's been going on a long slog. Mike Royko wasn't a glitch! He has opposed and exposed the earlier iterations of the Democratic machine his entire writing career! John Kass picked up the mantle for us in recent times. "Things that can't go on, won't" but the ending in Illinois and Chicago isn't going to be pretty. I'm stuck here, but I'll keep up the good fight until my planned escape!
Unfortunately, Reagan also tore down a metaphorical wall for illegal immigration when he agreed to amnesty for some 3 million illegal immigrants. People who have been so central to the DemoCommie strategy of making blue states look more populous than they are so as not to lose House seats. As well as get their votes.
Three million illegal immigrants... what an innocent and naive time that was.
International Socialist or national Socialist- notice a very important word they both share- Socialist. At his core I would describe Obama as a week kneed communist who I don't personally think has the guts to pick up a gun and take his base idological convictions to their logical conclusion. The right has not had the long term ground game to counter what started with Woodrow Wilson then was put on Steroids times 1 million with FDR and has progressed forward from there. The right since Ike has not had the guts to roll stuff back. They have left it in place and upon this rock of Lenin/Stalin/Marx they have continued to slowly but surely build their totalitarian dictatorship with all things running through that swamp in VA/MD.
The jury is still out on how corrupt and rabid BHO is/was. One wonders if his griping wife will reveal all.
This piece, regarding the concocted alliance of Islamists, leftists, socialists etc is revealing re how long these ill-intentioned folks have been working together to take down America:
In the past, it was easy for the Left to show up but not the Right. Back then, the conventional wisdom was that people on the Right had jobs while people on the Left didn't, so were able to stand outside the court house in NYC on a Wednesday morning and shout insults at Donald Trump. No one knew those protestors were being well-paid by taxpayer-funded NGOs who, in turn, were clients of USAID.
With DOGE, that has all changed. Look how quickly No Kings fizzled out. It's hard to find rent-a-mobs willing to get sprayed with tear gas when you have no money to pay them, only t-shirts and foreign flags. Finally, the totalitarians and the industrial propaganda operation known as "the media", are being fumigated. The ones that haven't already gone belly-up are running around dazed and confused.
The conservative Right hit bottom during the Biden Administration. Thanks to Trump, it has gotten off the canvas and has turned the fight completely around.
Talking with one of my daughter's friends who is on a sports team at a fancy East Coast college.
Kids on her routinely say anti-Semitic things, without having the least worry about how offensive it is as she is Jewish, but as my daughter notes, the comments should be offensive to everyone. It doesn't register with her team mates that there could be a very athletic Jewish girl on their team, so they just let it rip .
I am not quite sure how we got to this (low) level in our society, with all of the anti-bullying and diversity awareness that is pushed in the schools. Actually I am sure. Those programs are anti-Semitic and anti-White by design, and just call themselves anti-Bullying and DEI, while delivering the opposite.
Power over others is more addicting than heroin and people will do anything, and I do mean anything, to keep it. A picture book example of this was Ted Kennedy. He knew he was going to die. He had time to groom an heir to run for his Senate seat and put them forward as a replacement. Did he do this? Nope! And the result was a Republican (granted a liberal one) was elected to replace him. We need term limits now, because our politicians are starting to think they are our Divine leaders.
It occurred to me while reading that this seems to be yet another example of Trump's nature (1) that causes his enemies to (want to) expose their true selves. I mean, the same people who voted for Trump need to be aware of how dangerous the DemoCommies are because only they possess the numbers to change anything. So, it would seem obvious that the DemoCommies should just lay low, hunker down and wait it out until the 2026 elections, but no. With Trump at the helm, the DemoCommies proudly "open the kimono" so those same voters can see for themselves and (I hope) react accordingly.
This kinda peripherally related to my realization the other day that Trump hasn't even been president for 6 months. Think of all the things that have been wrought in just that short time.
1) I don't know what else to use other than "nature". It's not anything over which he has direct control like a character trait (flaw ;-). Perhaps it's only just a correlation without a cause.
The left is Captain Arab and Trump is Moby Dick. They’ve lost their minds with their maniacal obsession. It’s a beautiful thing to watch, except for the violence which the left always descends into.
We are 10 years (!) into the left’s obsession with President Trump and they’ve only gotten crazier.
Voting registration trends nationwide are almost all trending D —> R or D —> I.
This is very important because there are no elections happening yet people are concerned about being affiliated with the crazy Dems so they are going through the trouble to actively change their affiliation.
Think about this. We are far from an election, yet people sitting in their homes watching the Dems are going out of their way in their busy lives to change their registrations to not be tainted by association with the Dems.
I respectfully have to protect Detroit on this particular issue. Detroit has been through decades of hell due to its actions, but since the lead up to bankruptcy and after, it has done a pretty good job of avoiding the BS that you see in the other cities mentioned
Yep, been sayin this for years. The Left is simple plain totalitarian/collectivist. Problem is 'they' are organized and dedicated and we are not. Politics sucks and mostly grifters become politicians. It's like education: Those who can, do. Those who can't teach. The only possible cure for the totalitarian problem is to starve them out. We don't have the army for a war of attrition. Which would be quicker. So we have to siege them. Lucky for America we are big enough and strong enough to soldier on with 10 or so failed states. Trump is showing the way. Starve them out. Decent folk must pull up stakes and move. Like you did. "But I can't sell my house." Rent it out or simply cut your losses. It is better to live in a two bedroom apartment in a Red state than a broad mansion in a Blue sh!t hole.
The Kass article reminded me of a humorous situation I experienced almost two decades ago. An employee, who was mid-level management and carried some clout in approval of government contracts, approached me and in a not so subtle way suggested my company could do better if I found a way to enhance his overall quality of life. LOL
I chose to respond along the lines of:"Hmm, well... I am friends with so and so and so and so and I'm sure they would be interested in knowing whether or not you're contributing to enhancing their overall quality of life by sharing any of those contributions made to you by others?" The names I mentioned were powerful politicians and nefarious characters on both sides of the law. His eyes bugged out of his head and he just shook his head no and said:.. don't worry about it". So, that was the last time he ever bugged me to grease his palms. 🤣
Democrats use money to get power, republicans use power to get money...
Yes, run for city clowcils and school boards. Get involved. I live in a smaller community 40 miles from the Twin Shitties and we flipped the school board, etc.

Who is going to pick cotton if we lose the Civil War? (Who is going to harvest our crops if we send Illegal aliens back?)

Arrest a few Americans who hired illegals.
This will also help. https://www.npr.org/2025/06/29/nx-s1-5409608/citizenship-trump-privacy-voting-database
Arrest & prosecute 'em all.

Starting July 1 in Illinois:
*State agencies must collect gender inclusive data--
male/female removed; now man/woman/nonbinary/gender nonconforming
*Public schools must teach climate change
*Judges must ask people in court if they need translator--free for some, 13 languages.
“The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule”. (H.L. Mencken)
Also from Mencken:
"As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and a complete narcissistic moron."
Populism sucks, whether from left or right.
that was Obama and Biden. Trump is not a fool

I have been ranting about the same thing for 40 years… Reagan tore the wall down and, yet, the Soviets won
Yes, agreed.

Kruschev was right. Now there is a shirt begging to be made.

iBama, like his mentor, Billy Ayers, is a Maoist, an important distinction from being a softer Marxist/Leninist.

The recently published Pew Research analytics on the 2024 election support that view. More R voters.
God bless the average voter. And their common sense.
These registration changes are currently happening, too.
There are no common sense issues left for the Dems the run on. The R’s have claimed all of them.
I respectfully have to protect Detroit on this particular issue. Detroit has been through decades of hell due to its actions, but since the lead up to bankruptcy and after, it has done a pretty good job of avoiding the BS that you see in the other cities mentioned
