BREAKING: A new report reveals Mamdani’s office runs a Signal group of 200+ influencers, feeding them talking points and clips to amplify online.

Some received $5,000–$20,000 through taxpayer-funded contracts, with little disclosure.

This is taxpayer-funded propaganda.

HAMMER of JUSTICE: Senator Schumer is under investigation by Trump’s Acting DC US Attorney Ed Martin over his incitement of violence against conservative SCOTUS justices resulting in at least one assassination attempt.

This fire is not from “climate change,” you ignorant asshole. It’s because liberal idiots like you elect liberal idiots like Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass. One doesn’t understand the first thing about fire management and the other can’t fill the water reservoirs.

@QuiteFranklyTV wonderful & encouraging article by Victor Davis Hanson:

The National Nightmare Is Ending

Après Biden, “L'audace, l'audace, encore l'audace, toujours l'audace”!

To paraphrase mixed French 18th-century memorable quotations: after Biden, follows not the deluge, but now daring, and still more daring, and always more daring.

Why?

A combination of two self-evident truths.

Joe Biden’s inept administration proved an ungodly disaster, not just for America but for the West as well, who looked abroad for a stronger America but found it weaker.

And second, Trump Invictus is now liberated—“In the fell clutch of circumstance/I have not winced nor cried aloud,/Under the bludgeonings of chance/My head is bloody, but unbowed.”

He is without worry over another election, or a discredited and defanged media (“so doves do peck the falcon's piercing talons”), much less a third Nancy-Pelosi contrived impeachment.

Instead, he stalks indomitable, after failed de-balloting capers, failed lawfare vendettas, and failed two assassination attempts. To quote Shakespeare of his recent visit to Notre Dame and the once hostile Euro crowd who now mobbed him, “He doth bestride the narrow world /Like a Colossus, and we petty men /Walk under his huge legs and peep about /To find ourselves dishonorable graves”.

In sum, our weakest president is to be followed by our most audacious.

Biden’s bumbling arrogance nearly destroyed the American military in Kabul. It ruined Western deterrence. It showered the creepy Taliban with a multibillion-dollar new windfall arsenal.

His lies, his incompetence, and, yes, his narcissism demoralized Americans and our allies, but at least ensured he would never reach 50 percent approval again.

What immediately followed from the Kabul nightmare was as bad or indeed worse: two theater-wide wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, appeasement of Iran, hammering of Israel, a nonexistent US border, 12 million illegal aliens, the hyperinflation of staples, the weaponization of the executive branch, Third-World lawfare, looting and shoplifting legitimized, spiking crime contextualized, and printing trillions of debased dollars normalized.

Biden sought to turn the once preeminent US military into a cruel cultural woke joke.

The trainwreck of the last four years was force-multiplied by Biden’s own feebleness, masked by the most scandalous media-politico conspiracy of suppresson of it in US history.

But now there is a giddy sense that restoration and normalization are not just possible but on the horizon.

The truth now is set free, and it smothers the old lying denials about the origins of COVID, about the truth of diversity/equity/inclusion, about the naked greed of the Biden family syndicate, about the dementia of Joe, about the chauvinism of three sexes, and about the joy and momentum of the fracking, gun-toting, MacDonald’s veteran and border hawk Kamala Harris.

No one fears or listens to the now defenestrated frauds and tiring dissimulators: the Bidens, a Fauci, Mayorkas, Garland, Milley, Austin, Jean-Pierre, Comey, Brennan, Clapper, or McCabe—and their old lies that Hunter is brilliant, Biden is fit as a field, no gain-in-function viruses, a bat caused COVID, the border is secure, Chinese army generals are more trustworthy than Trump, the laptop was Russian, Trump is a Putin puppet, and always their nauseating “I can’t recall”, “ I don’t remember”,  “I have no recollection”, and “I am not at liberty to say”.

Our allies are feeling more confident, our enemies scared.

The idea of an impending deterrent and reliable Trump administration has terrified Iran and helped collapse Syria. Israelis buoyant. Not so Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis.

In anticipation, the dollar reigns, the stock market stays strong.

Even Trump’s traditional enemies, whether on Wall Street, Silicon Valley, or in corporate board rooms are whispering that they secretly are delighted with their old nemesis’s dream of more and cheaper energy, less government regulation and taxation, and confidence again that everything is now possible when a government says an exhilarant yes to dreams rather than a crabby no to them.

Suddenly the woke bullies are on the run. The porous border really can be closed; illegal alien gangs and criminals will be sent packing.

The Left now invokes no Logan Act. They are instead relieved that the President-elect is now the virtual President—and their guy is gone.

Biden yelps now that his sins were not doubling down on them and sinning even more when he had the chance.

In other words, the recently impossible is not just possible again, but likely!

Each of us, at least for this brief window of opportunity, again feels, “I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.”

@QuiteFranklyTV Sinus infections are the worst!

Do saline rinses several times a day. Keep mucus membranes moist, dab sesame seed oil in nostrils 2x a day. Don't eat dairy, add lots of garlic, ginger & turmeric. Peppermint oil steam inhalation can help w/congestion. Hydrate w/tea & water.

When I hear economists talking about how good the economy *actually* is, I just presume they're not hoping to move or get a HELOC, or buy a used car, or do any of the other things that impact my middle-class family.

Or buy eggs.

I LOVE CO2: 💚
When you understand that CO2 is beneficial to all life on planet Earth, that the planet is greening rapidly because of CO2 increasing, that all vegetation loves it & grows faster because of it, as well as plankton and phytoplankton, and that our greenhouse gases are 95% water vapour, and that CO2 at current concentrations or higher has negligible impact on temperature compared to water vapour. And that life adapts faster to increases of temperature & CO2 than in decreases in either. That ten times more humans die because of cold temperatures rather than hot ones. That global warming is the best thing that can happen to planet Earth, to humans, and to all life forms. That CO2 levels are still critically low and need to be much higher to steer clear of the danger zone where all vegetation dies. Then you will love CO2 for the rest of your life.
