The Dutch had a saying when they were dominated by Spain: It is not necessary to hope in order to persist.
I see no hope, but I will certainly persist!

[Tom Woods @ThomasEWoods]

The Boomers of Kentucky embarrassed the United States on the world stage today.

Around the world, people genuinely wondered: can an American politician survive who doesn't repeat low-IQ platitudes about Israel and the Middle East?

The Boomers -- with their heterodox Christianity and FOX News propaganda -- gave their answer.

Republican politics is dominated by people who for some reason still think Sean Hannity is a smart guy, and Mark Levin is a constitutional scholar.

Pat Buchanan had given them the example of the learned and articulate right-winger -- and Pat was well to the right of Hannity and Levin -- but they decided to go with Tomi Lahren and Dan Bongino instead.

Oh, Massie voted this way or that, people will say, and that's why he was targeted in this unprecedented way. Yet there's Donald Trump out there campaigning for pro-amnesty Mike Lawler. So I don't believe you that this is a question of Massie's voting record (which is stellar, by the way).

Even if Massie had had a handful of objectionable votes, a million times more important than any Massie vote is this principle:

A patriot who values his country's sovereignty cannot allow three socially leftist billionaires who represent a foreign interest to buy a congressional seat and place a ridiculous empty suit in it.

Even if for some reason you don't like Massie, you as a patriot would have to dislike THAT a hundred times more.

These three billionaires never once set foot in Kentucky -- Kentuckians, to them, are lower than dirt, and exist solely to have congressional seats bought from them.

Put up a nonentity like "Ed Gallrein" who refuses to debate (how can any voter reward that?), have him utter a few Boomer slogans to satisfy the rubes, and otherwise hide him away. That was the strategy. Boomers (yes, I know there are exceptions) are too morally and intellectually corrupt even to understand what just happened.

But the rest of us understand.

Can you imagine "Ed Gallrein" leading the charge against the Covid restrictions? He would have been first in line for the damn "vaccine"!

Remember, too, that the folks who voted for "Ed Gallrein" tonight are the kind of people who think Marco Rubio is an impressive person, so there was no reaching them.

But the younger generations, who don't get their information from the insulting caricature of conservatism that is FOX News, aren't going to fall for the nonsense that snookered the Boomers -- and therein lies hope.

Incidentally, the easiest thing in the world would have been for Massie to buckle. Nobody reading this has the remotest idea the pressure that was brought to bear against him. Not one of his detractors could have lasted a week in Massie's shoes.

If Trump can sup in happy concord with Zohran Mamdani, the radical leftist mayor of New York, you'd think he could have spared a meal with Massie, whose track record proved he was not Trump's enemy.

Not that you'd know it from the anti-Massie brigade (half of whom used to love Massie before they were instructed not to love him), Massie defended Trump through two impeachments, grilled Merrick Garland over FBI assets on January 6, and defended Trump during Russiagate. By contrast, "Ed Gallrein" left the GOP when Trump was elected, and came back only when Biden was in office.

But since we're not completely dense, we know the real reason Massie could not be tolerated.

As Glenn Greenwald put it, "If the AIPAC/Adelson crowd wants someone out of Congress for disloyalty to Israel, they will be out of Congress.

"There are a few exceptions due to unusual districts, but not many. The Israel Lobby has unlimited funding and will spend limitlessly to expunge the blasphemous."

I repeat that no American patriot can tolerate, much less celebrate, this grotesque and demeaning situation.

The polls show that this situation won't exist forever. We will reach a point at which the foreign money (and that's obviously what it is) will at last be a mark of shame for the candidate receiving it. That will be a great day for American patriots everywhere.

Thomas Massie should hold his head high: he stood up against the machine time and again, knowing that it could one day lead to this.

Tonight we have to explain to our kids: in this world, the good guys don't always win. But you fight regardless of the prospects of winning. The fight for what is good and right is an end in itself.

For that reason, people will remember the Thomas Massies and the Ron Pauls. Nobody will remember "Ed Gallrein," not even as the answer to a trivia question.

He’s talking about a spending bill that’s $75 billion for military expenses in Iran.

It has a $10 billion bribe to states for election security: NOT the SAVE Act.

They’ll include it in the Rule for the NDAA (w/ section 219!) to force Republicans to vote yes. Don’t fall for it.

@nntaleb When young people ask me what to read in order to learn, NNT is top of the list. Happens more than one would guess.

[The Constitutionalist 🇺🇸 @WeWillBeFree24]

This year, our sitting President implied that we should give up our 4th Amendment right for the military and the government.

Our Constitution was written to protect us AGAINST the government.

The sheep class of Americans will happily oblidge again, and again, and again. The MAGA sympathizers. Hell even the liberals are against flock.

They will be the first ones crying about getting tracked and arrested for assembling, or censored for speech. Again. Your ignorance never ceases to amaze me.

[Joe Kent @joekent16jan19]

This is good news, but the fight is not over.

The Senate just rejected the NDAA that would merge our military with Israel’s, which will now proceed to the House.

Call your senators & representatives and tell them not to support the NDAA until the merger w/ Israel (Section 219) is removed.

The senate switchboard number is: [phone]

JD Vance celebrated moving away from Milton Friedman. DSA candidates swept primaries across the country. The left wants more state control. The right wants more state control. The disagreement is over who holds the leash, not whether there is one. @ConnorOKeeffe
