Kash Patel Cashes In and Crashes Out

Rumors are flying that FBI Director Kash Patel may be the next to go as President Trump cleans house before the miderm elections. The nation’s head spy has often been reported as missing in action and erratic when he does speak in public. Reports in The Atlantic and other publications basically claim that Patel has a drinking problem, and at times, he’s asleep in his office and can’t be awakened. Famously — or perhaps infamously — he took his private, taxpayer-provided jet to the Winter Olympics, where he chugged a beer in front of the U.S. Olympic Team (pictured). Allegations about his personal use of his official Gulfstream jet include trips to visit his girlfriend, attend wrestling matches, and travel to a Texas ranch, in addition to his highly publicized Olympics foray. Whenever I see him speak on TV at press conferences, which isn’t all that frequent, he appears ill-informed and hardly articulate. Most of the allegations against him, naturally, originate with left-wing organizations and media. In one instance, his security detail reportedly requested breaching equipment to break into where he was passed out from drinking. Meetings reportedly have had to be rescheduled or canceled due to his taste for

Justice Thomas Warns of Far-Left (Demofiend) Takeover of U.S.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, probably the most consistently conservative of all nine justices, has earned scorn from liberal publications for sticking up for American values such as freedom of speech. The impetus for this opprobrium was a speech that Thomas gave this week at the University of Texas. The Daily Beast, for instance, called the speech “an unhinged rant” and suggested Thomas’s age, 77, indicates senility. Another website’s headline says he “Thinks He Is Moses.” Thomas in his remarks lamented the current state of SCOTUS, saying that when he joined, the justices were all WWII vintage and got along well, sharing many values. But that has been lost, he indicated, with the influx of justices without a shared background in struggling to preserve American values such as freedom of speech. He warned against the influx of progressivism into American society and politics. He said that these influences run counter to the Declaration of Independence that led to the formation of our nation. “The principles of the Declaration of Independence, as I encountered them, are a way of life,” Thomas said. “They’re not an abstract theory that you only learn in college or law school, but the basic premises of

If Todayi’s News Holds True, President Trump Can Take Several Victory Laps

I am having a hard time keeping up with the breaking news. It looks like this is a great day to stay in front of the boob tube. It also looks like a great day for President Trump — and for the world, if everything I’ve seen and ahead is true and stays in effect. From what I’ve learned on TV and from the pages of the Wall Street Journal, Trump today has announced: The Strait of Hormuz is open, a statement backed up by Iran’s Foreign Minister The U.S. will obtain all nuclear “dust” left over from our Midnight Hammer strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities last summer Israel will be forbidden to drop any more bombs on Lebanon President Trump himself will be flying to Pakistan to sign a deal with Iran If all this holds true, all I can say is “WOW” and hats off to President Trump. Despite his braggadocco, he’s done it!

Iranian Lego Video Slams Trump for Putting ‘Israel First’ and ‘Lying to You’

Iran is at it again with a video blasting President Trump, replete with a rap song evidently titled “They Lied to You.” The video — watch here — shows Trump in various poses — raising the Israel flag over the U.S. Capitol (shown above),  and standing over rows and rows of American-flag-draped coffins while saluting an Israeli flag. The message is, obviously, that Trump attacked Iran to carry out Israeli interests.

‘Dream On, Dream On, U.S. King’

President Trump announced his self-proclaimed 10th peace deal this morning in the form of a maybe-maybe-not ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. Mind you, I voted for Sir Donald three times and would a fourth time if that were possible, but that doesn’t mean I buy into his self-promoting nonsense. Let’s look at his latest claim to the Nobel Peace Prize (leaving aside the issue of his starting a deadly war with Iran). Okay, Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a cessation of hostilities for a week and a half. One problem is that the Israeli Security Council hasn’t even voted on the deal yet. Another problem is that Israel has something like five army divisions stationed in Lebanon. The third problem is that Hezbollah is not a signatory, though the group says it will honor the ceasefire. Let’s assume that no missiles or shots are fired for 10 days. Does that equate to peace? Not really, just a pause in hostilities. That’s why I have a problem with Trump’s claiming so many peace deals. For the most part, they are just pauses in ongoing, not-yet-resolved conflicts, not peace when both sides lay down their arms and go back to other

Euro Schmucks Long for Life After Trump (LAT)

European leaders are busy planning to control the Strait of Hormuz at the end of the war, provided that Trump and Company disappear. At the same time, they’re working on a plan to run NATO by themselves if the Trumpster decides to pull out — perhaps even if he doesn’t. Hidden behind all this official planning, however, it wouldn’t be surprising if some of these leaders don’t deep inside long for Iran to triumph over the man from Mar-a-Lago, if not militarily, then at least politically and diplomatically. The European plan for securing passage through the Strait of Hormuz involves sending in minesweepers and patrol vessels. French President Emmanuel Macron, he of world leadership aspirations/pretensions, said the plan for patrolling the Strait by his Hormuz Homeboyz won’t happen if any “belligerents” are in the area, meaning the U.S. and its Navy. In other words, the plan is all pretense, not practicality, since the U.S. won’t withdraw until the Strait is open and Iranian ambitions held firmly in check. Now, as regards NATO, the plan is once again one of Macronian design, or at least impetus. The key to realizing this long-promoted French plan for a “European NATO” is a buy-in

Iran Publishes AI-Generated, Lego-Style Anti-Trump Videos Viewed by 100 Million

Artificial Intelligence (AI) to the rescue in Iran’s propaganda wars. The Islamic Republic (Republic?) is fighting back against President Trump’s war with a series of AI-generated, Lego-style videos that feature Trump unraveling and reverting to his President TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out) persona. The videos also proclaim that Trump started the war as a cover-up to his ties with Jeffrey Epstein and his underage mistresses. The videos display a profound grasp of what’s going on in the U.S. and how Trump critics portray him and his war. The videos have been largely produced by a group called Explosive Media, which remains a sort of mystery organization. Explosive Media has been fully sanctioned and endorsed by Iran. The cartoons were reportedly viewed by some 100 million people until YouTube eventually pulled them, citing their violent content. VIEW ONE EXAMPLE FOR YOURSELF BY CLICKING ON THE IMAGE BELOW:
