Is it my imagination or has the Trump campaign so far been flawless ?
And is he doing that while fighting 91 indictments at the same time ?
That’s some serious Ginger Rogers action. Same dance as Fred Astaire, but backwards and wearing heels !!! …
Biden is struggling to read note cards for Crissakes !!! …
Judgments already issued against Donald Trump …
Judge Arthur Engoron — total damages $453.5 million to be paid to the state of New York
Of all the litigation involving Trump, this case is the most egregious of them all. Trump was convicted of a victimless crime, allegedly overvaluing his real estate holdings, in order to receive favorable loan terms from banks from whom Trump wanted to borrow money — money that was borrowed and repaid in full. The banks that lent Trump money want to lend him money again, but Engoron’s draconian ruling temporarily prohibits them from doing new business with one of their best customers.
Trump should win this case on appeal in a slam dunk. However, the recent conversation has been over whether Trump can afford to appeal the case without liquidating much of his real estate empire in a fire sale because of New York’s bond requirements for appeals. Trump is expected to pay the entire amount of the judgment to the court in cash to appeal this unjust judgment against him.
This is so grotesquely unfair that the Supreme Court would seem to have little choice but to intervene based on the Eighth Amendment’s protections against excessive fines and cruel and unusual punishment. Engoron had decided Trump was guilty before the trial even started. Trump was never allowed to present evidence rebutting the allegations of prosecutor Letitia James.
It’s extraordinarily difficult to take Engoron’s ruling seriously — he valued Mar-a-Lago at $18 million. Do you know what you can really buy for $18 million in Palm Beach? The penthouse on top of the Tiffany building on the corner of Worth and Hibiscus Avenues …
Unfinished !!! …
Here’s the ‘ Rooftop Penthouse ‘… Note the ocean front is barely in view …
Now here’s Mar-A-Lago …
And this asshole thinks he knows real estate ?!!! …

The Daily Mail is reporting on a story where Arizona Republican Chairman Jeff DeWit is caught on tape offering a bribe to Kari Lake on behalf of “people back east.”
The voices “back east” surrounding republican Senate races are not exactly a surprise. Yeah, it’s obviously Mitch McConnell and the multinational corporate benefactors from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce who fund the UniParty construct. Apparently, the conversation was Jeff DeWit, 51, chair of the Arizona Republican Party, asking Kari Lake, a close ally of Donald Trump, to name her price to stay out of politics for two years.
It’s IMPORTANT to understand that this is coming from the Arizona REPUBLICAN Chairman , Jeff DeWit ! ;
‘So the ask I got today from back east was: “Is there any companies out there or something that could just put her on the payroll to keep her out?’
Lake reacts with indignation.
‘This is about defeating Trump and I think that’s a bad, bad thing for our country,’ she said.
Later, DeWit, who was chief operating officer on the Trump’s 2020 campaign frames it differently.
‘Just say, is there a number at which….’ he begins.
Lake cut in: ‘I can be bought? That’s what it’s about.’
‘You can take a pause for a couple of years. You can go right back to what you’re doing.’
Lake repeatedly rebuffs him and says she wouldn’t do it for a billion dollars.
‘This is not about money, it’s about our country,’ she says …
UPDATE ;
The leader of Arizona’s Republican party resigned on Wednesday after leaked audio of him surfaced, appearing to show him offering a bribe to the Republican candidate Kari Lake by asking if there were a dollar amount she would take to stay out of the US Senate race there.
Jeff DeWit, the chair of the state party, was captured in audio secretly recorded by Lake telling her “there are very powerful people who want to keep you out” of the Senate race and that “they’re willing to put their money where their mouth is, in a big way”.
DeWit said that rather than fight to keep his job, he was stepping down because Lake’s team threatened to release more secret recordings unless he resigned: “I am resigning as Lake requested, in the hope that she will honor her commitment to cease her attacks.” (Lake’s team has denied this, saying no one on her campaign threatened or blackmailed DeWit.)
Lake, a Trump ally who has been campaigning for the former president, previously lost the race for governor to the Democratic candidate, Katie Hobbs, and is now running for the Senate against the Democrat Ruben Gallego and, possibly, the incumbent independent, Kyrsten Sinema.
In the audio, obtained by the Daily Mail , Lake objects to the idea that she can be “bought” and rejects any attempt at a bribe. DeWit repeatedly asks Lake not to tell anyone about the conversation.
While Lake and her allies have cast DeWit’s comments as an attempt to bribe her, DeWit characterized the conversation as “offering a helpful perspective to someone I considered a friend”.
As a good friend of mine would say , with PERFECT inflection I might ad … :
BULLSHIT !!!
And you thought flying the friendly skies was already fraught with stress and danger ! … Just wait !…
In keeping with a new DEI initiative , the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is actively recruiting workers who suffer from “ severe intellectual ” disabilities, psychiatric disorders and various other mental and physical conditions.
The FAA’s website states :
Targeted disabilities are those disabilities that the Federal government, as a matter of policy , has identified for special emphasis in recruitment and hiring. They include hearing , vision , missing extremities , partial paralysis , complete paralysis , epilepsy , severe intellectual disability , psychiatric disability and dwarfism.
Vision ?! … ‘ Dwarfism ?!! … Airlines have to go to the expense of refitting cockpits to facilitate flyin’ munchkins ?!!! …
Remind me to take the bus the train my own vehicle whenever I need to travel anywhere.
Notice that on the FAA’s website that in the column next to the FAA’s statement of its hiring priorities is a job ad for an “aviation safety inspector.”
You can’t make this stuff up.
The website also avers, “diversity is integral to achieving FAA’s mission of ensuring safe and efficient travel across our nation and beyond.”
Uh ? … Run that by me again ?!!! …
The website also avers, “diversity is integral to achieving FAA’s mission of ensuring safe and efficient travel across our nation and beyond.”
No, diversity is integral to achieving FAA’s mission of meeting self-imposed diversity requirements. Nothing against those with physical or mental impediments and challenges, but there is no possible way that, say, air-traffic controllers with severe intellectual disabilities, complete paralysis, and hearing and vision impairments will foster safe and efficient travel … anywhere.
Will the Army soon be recruiting those without legs — and with limited vision — for its infantry battalions in an effort to achieve its core mission of defeating our enemies on the battlefield?
Will mentally ill folks bring stability and cohesion to the ranks — and the foxholes?
Similarly, will pro sports teams begin hiring those suffering from missing limbs, partial paralysis, dwarfism, and multiple personality disorders to increase their odds of winning championships?
Will we let DEI completely supplant competence and capability as the most favored measure of all things?
If so, are we all suffering from severe intellectual and psychiatric disabilities ?
I’ve been busy with other things and neglecting the ole Blog !!! …
It wasn’t ’til about three days before the new year that I noticed I hadn’t updated the date in the header ! … Since ’22 !!! … I’m eagerly following the politics down south as it’s the most entertaining thing on flat screens these days … Plus it is so crucial … If Trump can’t beat the Swamp / MSM and get back in the Oval Office , the States are gonna go down the toilet and take Canada with’em !!! …
Hope to be posting on a more daily basis in the near future …
And remember …
Quite an informative read , with basic common sense ! ;
Before we can start a process of peace, some realities need to be acknowledged: there is no historical Palestine, the people of Gaza have chosen Hamas as their leadership, and Israel has the right to exist and defend herself. From the full acceptance of those facts, a dialogue could possibly be started — but not until they are all fully accepted.
The patterns of the anti-Semitic/Marxist/”Palestinian”/LGBTQ/BLM/hate-filled alliance are nothing if not predictable. After expressing shock and dismay that their Palestinian friends in Gaza specifically targeted civilians, in under a week, they have quickly shifted back to their repeated old rhetoric. They are now blaming Israel for the horrific attacks from Hamas, calling Israel’s counter-attacks on Hamas a “terrorist siege,” blitzing the media with images of wounded from Gaza, and attacking Israel in all ways as an ‘apartheid state’ and, as Ocasio Cortez defined Israel, a nation devoted to “ethnic cleansing”.
We cannot let them try to control the narrative with their blatant lies.
The best way to dismiss falsities is to educate. And so the purpose of this piece is to do just that: to give accurate information that is in direct contradiction to the lies of the Marxist alliance that seeks to destroy Israel, the United States, and Western Culture. The spiritual implications and religious components will be left for another article. This is about what we in Judaism call tachlis: simple, practical understandings that are useable in any dialogue.
Let us start with a brief history lesson. Despite what the media has been preaching for almost 60 years, there is no historical Palestinian state or people. Over 4,000 years ago, there were small tribes living in Canaan, such as Moabites, Amalekites, etc. There was no Palestine of people or land. Then around 3,200 years ago, the 12 tribes of Israel, united under King Saul into the first kingdom in the region, a Jewish theocracy called “Israel.” That split into the kingdoms of Judah and Israel (both Jewish), which were conquered by the Babylonian empire a little over 2,500 years ago. This became the Persian Empire, which was defeated by Alexander the Great, and Israel was controlled by the Greeks.
The Greeks were defeated by the Hasmoneans, and Israel once again became a Jewish state about 2,200 years ago. The Hasmoneans were beaten by the Romans, and there followed a series of kingdoms that controlled Israel: Byzantine, Sassanid, Ummayad, Frankish, Christian, and eventually the Mamluk Dynasty, which controlled the region in the 13th-16th centuries. This is the first time there is a governmental Muslim presence in Israel, but again, it is not related to Palestine as a people or nation at all. The Mamluks ultimately were absorbed into the Ottoman Empire, which controlled the region until it was defeated by the British in the 20th century. Nowhere in this 3,000-year history does Palestine or Palestinians exist or even get discussed. The British created a mandate called “Palestine” on July 24, 1922, which was the first mention of the word in thousands of years.
For over 3,000 years, there has been no such thing as a Palestinian or a country of Palestine! So how did this Palestinian issue even start in modern times? In 1948, U.N. Resolution 181 granted statehood to two states: a Jewish one called Israel and an Arab one called Palestine. This is the first time there is a nation or people with the name of Palestine, even though they were in fact all Jordanians. Immediately, five Arab nations attacked Israel, which continued to be attacked repeatedly for the next 15 years but successfully defended her nationhood.
And now comes the seed that leads to the current support from the left of “Palestine.” In the early 1960s, the Arab coalition was not only physically losing wars, but was considered bullies of Israel in worldwide media. They were the Goliath that kept losing to David. So they hired the public relations firm of Dudley-Anderson-Yutzy in New York (founded in 1909, no longer in business) to change their image in the world. George Anderson told them they needed a “victim,” a group that would be perceived as smaller and even more abused than the Israelis, and the Palestinian cause was born.
At Anderson’s advice, the Palestinian Liberation Organization was established on May 28, 1964. This is the start date of the “Palestinian cause”: 1964. After the 1967 war, when Israel kept Gaza, the Sinai, the Golan Heights, and the West Bank, the concept of the Palestinians as victims became more popular. While ultimately Egypt made a land-for-peace deal with Israel and has kept that peace, the other nations refused to do the same. “Palestine” has always, and continues today, to define itself as “from the River” (Jordan) to the Sea (Mediterranean) and refuses to accept the State of Israel as a neighbor. The Arab schoolbooks in Gaza, the West Bank, and many Arab nations do not even include Israel in their maps as taught to children in 2023.
As for Gaza? In 2005, the Israelis, in their eternal quest for peace, gave self-governance to the people of Gaza. In 2007, the people of Gaza elected Hamas as their leadership by over 90%, and they have reelected and kept Hamas in power for these 16 years. Please do not cry for a distinction between the citizens of Gaza and Hamas, for Hamas was and has been elected by the people of Gaza for almost two decades.
“But,” says the leftist that wants to destroy Israel, “the people of the region consider themselves Palestinian, and we need to act according to their self-identification based on the last few decades.” So when confronted by the history that “Palestine” and “Palestinians” are made up, the response is that self-identification is the real determiner. This is beyond absurd, as we can see with a simple analogy.
We are currently being confronted with a media, supported by the same Marxist agenda, that claims that if a man self-identifies as a woman, he should be treated as a woman in all ways. Anyone with common sense realizes this is ridiculous. But as this agenda continues unchecked, more and more people are concerned about this craziness that is becoming commonly accepted.
A pig can call itself a chicken all day, but it is still a pig. Drag queens can call themselves women, but they are not. And an Arab born in Gaza is an Israeli or Gazan but not a Palestinian, no matter what the media has been pouring down our throats for decades. It is cultural suicide to allow self-identification to control the actions of the culture: be it drag queens calling themselves women or accepting “Palestine” as a historical reality.
This does not disqualify the idea of a two-state solution of a Jewish state living peacefully with Arab neighbors. But this cannot happen until this proposed neighbor entirely rejects and turns on Hamas and until they change their attitude that Israel has no right to exist and embrace Israel as a peaceful neighbor.
There is a story that the Israeli ambassador was about to give a speech to the U.N. He said, “Before I begin my speech, I’d like to tell a story. Moses was bathing in the Jordan River, and when he got out, his clothes had been stolen by a Palestinian.”
The Palestinian ambassador jumped up. “Outrageous!” he exclaimed. “We were not even in the region at that time!”
The Israeli ambassador continued, “Now that it has been clearly established that the Palestinians were not even there historically, I will now begin my speech ” …

From thestar.com/world/news ;
Jordan is known for his close alliance with Donald Trump, particularly when the then-president was working to overturn the results of the 2020 election, leading to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Trump backed Jordan’s bid for the gavel.
Where’s Bob ?! … Where’s Bob ?!!! …
” working to OVERTURN the results … ” … ” Jan / 6 ATTACK … ” …
BULLSHIT !!! …
The only thing I know for a fact is that this whole thing over in Israel and Palestine is a giant False Flag.
Jesus himself couldn’t convince me that the Israeli’s were caught completely off guard by the attacks by Hamas the other day right after that treasonous piece of shit FJB gave Iran 6 billion dollars to go play with.
Not a fucking chance their Iron Dome was inoperable, their radar was off, their lookouts were caught flat footed and their intelligence agencies were asleep at the wheel for all that.
Un Fucking Possible.
If anything, the Israeli’s should have been on High Alert for what should have been highly anticipated shenanigans.
This whole scenario stinks to high heaven.
From Phil …
Major props to Marjorie Taylor Greene for having the guts to pull that one off …
I laughed my skinny ass off when all the hypocrite democrats started freaking out and saying it was too racy when these are the same sick bastards thinking it’s perfectly fine for teachers to discuss anal sex with second graders.
