Peaceful Protestors Don’t Carry Loaded Pistols
Posted By: gaboy, 1/26/2026 1:37:33 AM
It was hardly necessary to read the headlines Sunday morning to know that the corporate media, like Minnesota’s irresponsible governor Tim Walz, would effectively accuse federal immigration officers of brutally executing Alex Pretti. For example, a New York Times “analysis” fails to mention that Pretti was an anti-ICE activist who had interfered with the apprehension of a criminal suspect, and was violently resisting arrest when the officers realized he was armed. The Times falsely claims, “An agent had already removed Mr. Pretti’s gun when two other agents opened fire, shooting him in the back as he lay on the ground.”

Back when Attorney General Keith Ellison was a mere Congressman instead of the Attorney General of my state, he passed only one bill during his 12 years in that august body. Of all the bills he sponsored, he was able to successfully pass only one. It must have been really important to him to put it all on the line to convince his colleagues to go along with him, right? After all, it wasn't to rename a post office or anything. It was to actually change a policy intended to prevent money laundering.
He had to be pretty passionate and persuasive.
So what was that bill?
In the run-up to the 2016 Democratic Party convention, FBI Director James Comey gained access to at least eight thumb drives containing large volumes of former Secretary Hillary Clinton’s sensitive State Department emails – as well as some from President Obama – that appeared to have been compromised by foreign hackers.
Instead of investigating the explosive new batch of evidence revealed in recently declassified documents, Comey rushed ahead to close an investigation into whether Clinton improperly transmitted and received classified material from a private, unsecured server she kept in her basement. Comey also took the extraordinary step of bypassing the attorney general and personally exonerating Clinton of wrongdoing
The antics of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz have been much in the news of late, but the corporate media has studiously ignored the legal and historical context of his refusal to comply with federal immigration law. Minnesota is just one of 16 Democrat-controlled states that have enacted measures that violate the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause (Article VI, Clause 2), which provides that federal law takes precedence over conflicting laws passed by states. These Democrats are reenacting the nullification crisis that historians regard as a precursor to the Civil War.
Remember 2020, the halcyon days of mask mandates? I was working in New Jersey when the entire COVID panic started, and one would have thought the very air had turned radioactive. Many people accepted it as a silly necessity, but there are always those who take things to a ridiculous level. We all remember the sights of people driving alone, in their personal cars, wearing masks, or walking alone, outside, on a sunny day, again wearing a mask. That's OK. I've always thought that stupid people should be conspicuous.
Sanity may be returning, here and there. Now, at Oxford University, former double-mask advocate Professor Trish Greenhalgh has
The Media Are Agents of Propaganda
4 replies
Last Thursday Vice President JD Vance joined a White House press briefing to discuss initiatives the Trump administration is taking to investigate the pervasive welfare fraud that has been discovered in Minnesota. He was inevitably asked questions about the death of Renee Good after she attempted to drive her SUV over an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Vance described the media coverage of the death as “disgraceful,” and followed up with this question: “You guys are meant to report the truth. How have you let yourselves become agents of propaganda?”
It was hardly necessary to consult the Delphic Oracle to know that every Democrat within reach of a microphone would denounce President Trump’s military action against Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. It was, however, surprising to discover how ignorant the Democrats are about the President’s authority to deploy military forces. Saturday morning, for example, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) brayed, “The Trump administration has not sought congressional authorization for the use of military force and has failed to properly notify Congress in advance of the operation in Venezuela.” Jeffries is evidently unaware of the War Powers Resolution of 1973 (WPR).
The Fulton County 2020 Election Bombshell
17 replies
If you have struggled to find any reason to support the Democratic Party, you are by no means alone. A new Quinnipiac poll revealed last week that 73 percent of voters disapprove of the way the Democrats in Congress are handling their job. Yet, somehow, the party’s candidates managed to overperform its 2024 margins in all five House special elections this year. How did they work this miracle? One clue can perhaps be found in the recent revelations about election “irregularities” in Fulton County, Georgia. During a recent hearing of the Georgia State Election Board (SEB), an attorney for the county admitted that 315,000 illegally certified votes were included
A leading contender to become President Trump’s next Federal Reserve chair said the administration expects larger tax refunds and higher take-home pay next year, as many Americans continue to express concerns about affordability."We are going to see the biggest refund cycle ever in the history of America, and people are going to get massive refund checks," National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said in an interview on FOX Business' "Varney & Co." on Thursday.
"We're expecting just that part of it alone to be worth a couple-thousand-dollar refund … the numbers are striking."During his Wednesday evening address, President Trump said the administration expects "the largest tax refund season of all time"
The Democrats Decide to Lose

At the end of October, the center-left group WelcomePAC published Deciding to Win, a comprehensive exploration of why Democrats lost the 2024 election and what they must do to start winning again. It drew on surveys of more than 500,000 voters conducted over a six-month period and found that 70 percent of voters think the Democratic Party is “out of touch” and only 39 percent say the party has the “right priorities.” It recommended that the party moderate its most unpopular positions, avoid ideological purity tests, and offer genuine solutions to issues the voters actually care about.
It took me months to understand the whole concept of "woke right," and, to be honest, I still dislike the description because it takes so long to grasp.
While I basically agree with James Lindsey's arguments, it's a branding fail. Memes should be intuitive, IMHO. So what IS the woke right, and why would I put Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, and Andrew Tate in that category, along with others?
"Woke" is not so much an ideology in itself, although it is easy to think so since it has been so long associated with leftism and Cultural Marxism. Woke is, instead, a type
This escalated quickly.
I'm not sure if you all remember hearing the phrase, something like '$40M a week is still going to the Taliban.' Sounds incredible, right? Like, how could that possibly be?Well, it turns out to be entirely possible and partially true, and it all blew up this week with a report of a shipment of $45M in cold hard American greenbacks that was rumored to have been flown out to the murderous goatherders running Afghanistan.
The information everyone was seeing indicated it was funds the U.S. government was sending, much like the fabled 'pallets of cash' of old.
Naturally, everyone righteously lost their collective minds reading headlines like these.

The National Security Council whistleblower who triggered the first impeachment against Donald Trump is running for Senate.
Alexander Vindman announced on Tuesday he is running in the president's home state of Florida as a Democrat seeking to oust Republican Senator Ashley Moody.
In his two-minute announcement video, the Ukraine-born candidate leans into his anti-Trump sentiment, claiming: 'This president unleashed a reign of terror and retribution, not just against me and my family, but against all of us.'
'Today, our country is in chaos.'
Vindman, a retired lieutenant colonel and an NSC aide during Trump's first term, testified to Congress in October and November 2019 regarding

Homan meeting 24 replies
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey declared on Tuesday that his city "will not enforce federal immigration laws" in the wake of a meeting with border czar Tom Homan.
Frey wrote, "Today, Chief O'Hara and I met with Border Czar Homan and had a productive conversation. I reiterated that my main ask is for Operation Metro Surge to end as quickly as possible. Public safety works best when it's built on community trust, not tactics that create fear or division."
Tuesday on MS NOW’s “Chris Jansing Reports,” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said if President Donald Trump does not fire Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, they will “initiate” impeachment proceedings against her.
Jefferies said, “Kristi Noem is a despicable, corrupt, pathological liar. We’ve seen her slander, not just one, but two American citizens, patriotic Americans who were killed without justification on the streets of Minneapolis. In the last few weeks. She’s deeply unqualified. She never should have been confirmed to begin with by Senate Republicans and House Democrats have called for her to be fired immediately.
The FBI has launched a formal investigation into encrypted Signal group chats that anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement activists in Minneapolis allegedly used to track, identify, and interfere with federal law enforcement officers, FBI Director Kash Patel said Monday.
And it looks like some Minnesota state officials could face consequences.
The investigation was prompted by independent journalist Cam Higby’s viral X thread detailing coordinated efforts on the messaging app to share real-time information about ICE agents’ movements.
"We immediately opened up that investigation because that sort of Signal chat being coordinated with individuals, not just locally in Minnesota, but maybe even around the country —
With Border Czar Tom Homan headed to take charge of Homeland Security efforts in Minneapolis and President Donald Trump finding some common ground with Gov. Tim Walz, a rapid reduction in tensions is thankfully well under way.
Alex Pretti’s death plainly prompted a sobering all around, as it should.
We’re glad to see Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem elbowed aside. Her performance in recent weeks as the situation in Minnesota escalated out of control did not serve the president or the country well.
Without anyone backing off on matters of principle, state and federal leaders now can find some accommodation —
When you live in any community death happens. But when you live in one with tens of thousands of people, death happens pretty often. People die from heart attacks, strokes, aneurysms, complications of age, you name it. Emergency services respond, paperwork gets filled out, and that’s how records pile up. That’s just how life works. Except in some Somali communities…
And that’s why a lot of people are now asking a very uncomfortable question: what does it mean when those records are nowhere to be found?
The questions are coming from all corners… from Maine to Minnesota. People who work in and around emergency response, law enforcement, and local systems are
Rather startling news out of Minneapolis on Tuesday evening: Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN-05) was speaking at a town hall event there when a man approached her and appeared to spray an unknown substance at her while pointing and yelling at her.Here are two separate angles of the incident: (tweets) At the time of the attack, Omar was saying, "Secretary Kristi Noem must resign or face impeachment."
As the crowd applauds, the man approaches her from the front. He's holding something in his right hand as he sprays an unknown substance at her, which appears to catch her on the arm or chest. He's yelling, and his
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Brendan Carr announced Tuesday that the agency will vote next month on proposals to remove fraud from the Lifeline program, which provided taxpayer dollars to pay for phone and internet services for more than 116,000 dead people.
“If the government is going to spend your hard earned dollars, it must ensure that they go only to living and lawful Americans,” Carr wrote on X.
Carr’s announcement followed a report from the Federal Communications Commission Office of Inspector General (FCC OIG), which found startling levels of fraud in the program. Congress and the FCC established the Lifeline program to help low-income Americans receive affordable communications service,
Joe Biden crawled out of his hole on Tuesday to bash the Trump Administration over the two fatal ICE-involved shootings in Minneapolis.
Biden accused the Trump Administration of trampling on 4th Amendment rights and gunning down citizens for exercising their constitutional rights.
ICE agents have warrants to enter homes and arrest criminal illegal aliens.
“What has unfolded in Minneapolis this past month betrays our most basic values as Americans. We are not a nation that guns down our citizens in the street. We are not a nation that allows our citizens to be brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights.
President Trump is considering a cap on state fuel tax that would offer serious relief to California’s long-suffering drivers.
In an exclusive interview with The California Post, the president said his plan could see drivers pay 40% less at the pump.
“Gasoline in California could be $2.50,” he said. Trump has made his attempts to drive down prices at the pump the centerpiece of his affordability messaging and said he wants to address the fact that the Golden State has the country’s highest gas tax.
The average cost of a gallon of gas in the US in January is $2.83 per gallon, but for California residents,
The attorney wife of an elite Texas law-firm partner, an event planner and a pilot who joined the company less than a year ago were among six people killed when a private jet flipped over and burst into flames at a Maine airport over the weekend — just after a voice over the radio said, “Let there be light.’’ Tara Arnold — a 46-year-old powerhouse lawyer who lived with her two kids and mega-wealthy husband in a Houston mansion was on board the plane when it crashed. Kurt Arnold and his law partner, as well as their wives were known to make multimillion-dollar donations to Republican causes,
Sen. Lindsey Graham’s, R-S.C., announcement on Saturday that he “fully” expects to be the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2027 swiftly triggered debate among conservatives.
“I fully expect to be Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2027 after Republicans retain control of the U.S. Senate,” Graham wrote. “As Chairman, my top priority will be to pass legislation that once and for all ends sanctuary city policies that lead to massive rip-offs of the taxpayer and much worse.”
But conservatives are questioning Graham’s previous voting record and his stance on President Donald Trump’s priorities.
