Auditioning for the Part of Trump's Worst Adversary;

 Rajan Laad

"The only way to stop this abhorrent behavior is for voters to rethink what dictates their voting decision. Voters must focus on the record, i.e., actual work done rather than amateur theatrics. Publicity-hungry desperados such as AOC, Al Green, and Jasmine Crockett do not deserve a seat in Congress." . . .

. . . "When asked by a journalist about Elon Musk, Crockett replied, "F--- off."

"Internet sleuths found clips of Crockett speaking grammatically correct English sans expletives, and her manner was sober and pleasant.

"This is an act by Crockett to deceive all into believing that she rose from the grassroots sections when, in reality, she is affluent and educated. AOC has also used the fake accent ploy a few times in the past.

"The Democrats frequently claim that Trump has lowered the level of discourse in politics, but neither he nor any of his supporters in Congress have engaged in such rowdy behavior or uttered profanity in such a manner.

"Green and Crockett's election showed the devolution of the state of Texas, which was once considered a thoroughly red state.

"Once again, like Schiff, Ocasio-Cortez, Green, and Crockett will do nothing to improve the lives of their constituents. They are just auditioning for a part of Trump's worst hater, which will enable personal gain. They will be welcomed in various forums where they will feign righteous indignation, hoping it will result in a viral moment on social media.

"Some may claim they suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, but even that seems unlikely. For this group, displaying Trump hatred is a ladder up the Democrat party hierarchy.

"The only way to stop this abhorrent behavior is for voters to rethink what dictates their voting decision. Voters must focus on the record, i.e., actual work done rather than amateur theatrics. Publicity-hungry desperados such as AOC, Al Green, and Jasmine Crockett do not deserve a seat in Congress.

"Congress is not a stage, and representatives are not players; what the public deserves are doers."

A Hamas supporter who graduated from Columbia got his green card revoked, and the left is losing its mind

Monica Showalter   

Guys like this shouldn't ever be allowed to set foot in the U.S. and the Trump administration was right to try to get this freak thrown out. 

"When pro-Hamas protests engulfed Columbia University, the place became a screaming sea of anti-semitism as leftists yelled together like Nazis, Jewish students were unable to go to class, custodians were taken hostage, the university atmosphere turned into a pigpen, and graduation diminished to a ghost of itself based on all the mess and disruption.

"In short, the protests were anything but peaceful.

"The university insisted it was outside interlopers doing it, which was partly true -- one was a forty-something man who lived off his parents in Brooklyn -- but these protests which brought such dishonor on the school had more than a few locals involved, too. To my knowledge, virtually none were expelled.

"One of them was a character named Mohammed Khalil, who just graduated from Columbia and who just had his green card yanked by ICE, which told him, 'buddy, it's time to go home.'

"The outcry from the left is amazing.

Staff leftist columnist Michelle Goldberg at the New York Times said we should all shiver from "the danger Trump's act poses to us all: . . .

. . ."Trump's act to protect the American people from terrorist agitating is worse than Hamas shooting up a music festival full of dancing kids, burning people alive in their homes, torturing and starving many of their hostages, and murdering babies and their mother in cold blood, along with a lot of other innocent people?" . . .

‘THERE WAS NOBODY’: Trump Shocked After Asking Freed Israeli Hostages If Anyone in Gaza Ever Showed Them an Act of Kindness, “NOT A SINGLE PERSON”

" ‘There Was Nobody’: Trump Says He Was Shocked After Asking Freed Israeli Hostages If Anyone in Gaza Ever Showed Them an Act of Kindness"

By New York Sun, March 7th, 2025

‘You think there’d be a couple of people that would be kind and would say, ‘You’re going to be okay’ or give you a piece of bread. But there was none of that,’ the president said."  

 “I said, ‘Did you see anybody in there that was kind?’” Mr. Trump recounted during a press conference in the Oval Office on Friday. “Out of the hundreds of people that you were seeing, did some of them wink at you and say, ‘Don’t worry, you’re gonna be okay,’ or give you a piece of bread?” . . .

How Trump thwarted Democrats

 Don Surber 

. . . "Now discredited! Maybe Bezos will give up his Russiagate Pulitzer. He should do what Zelensky did on Monday and apologize to President Trump. Schumer bragged 17 days before Trump’s first inauguration that the intelligence community has 6 ways till Sunday to get you. Like Wonder Bread, Trump now has 12 ways." ...

  

"Democrats thought Trump’s second presidency would be a repeat of his first. They cornered him last time by triangulating lawsuits, the bureaucrats and RINOs to stymie a president they believed unworthy of the title.

"Republicans in the Senate saddled the newbie with a Cabinet of Termites. He trusted them. Bigly yuge mistake.

"Ha ha ha. 8 years later, the establishment has not changed its playbook. Football may be a game of inches, but politics is a game of adjustments. Trump adjusted.

"First, he assembled a Cabinet of anti-Federalists. Many people overlook the fact that many Founding Fathers opposed the Constitution over fears of a central government that would overpower the states. Patrick Henry admonished the constitutional convention for not doing its job of simply fixing the Articles of Confederation but replacing it.

"Henry said, “What right had they to say, We, the people? My political curiosity, exclusive of my anxious solicitude for the public welfare, leads me to ask, Who authorized them to speak the language of, We, the people, instead of, We, the states? States are the characteristics and the soul of a confederation. If the states be not the agents of this compact, it must be one great, consolidated, national government, of the people of all the states.”

"He praised the conventioneers as the loyal Americans and patriotic comrades in arms, but he firmly stated, “The people gave them no power to use their name.” . . .

. . ."Disbarring and bankrupting Rudy Giuliani is one of the foulest deeds of Democrats during Trump’s exile. Going after the lawyer who defeated the Mafia and cleaned up New York City was really evil because it was unnecessary.

Tulsi Gabbard Rips Security Clearances From 51 Spies Who Lied, Hits Biden With Some Bad News Too

Rusty Weiss

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced Monday that the security clearances of 51 intelligence officers who signed a letter portraying Hunter Biden’s laptop as ‘Russian disinformation’ have been officially revoked.

Gabbard, one of several strong, intelligent women with a significant role in President Trump's cabinet, delivered the bad news to some high-profile members of the intelligence community. 

Names such as former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former CIA Directors Mike Hayden, John Brennan, and Leon Panetta, and former National Security Advisor John Bolton signed on to the letter. And by doing so, they eventually signed onto their own security clearance revocation.

Gabbard further ripped clearances from former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, New York Attorney General and rabid anti-Trump advocate Letitia James, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

Rounding out the delicious declaration on X is a note from Gabbard that former President Joe Biden is no longer privy to his Daily Brief.

"Per [President Trump's] directive, I have revoked security clearances and barred access to classified information for Antony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, Lisa Monaco, Mark Zaid, Norman Eisen, Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, and Andrew Weissman, along with the 51 signers of the Hunter Biden 'disinformation' letter," Gabbard announced.

"The President's Daily Brief is no longer being provided to former President Biden."

One Fact Missing From Every DOGE Story

Issues & Insights   

"The Golden Age might be upon us, but it will be smothered in its crib if Democrats, weak-kneed Republicans, and a corrupt media keep playing the same games that got us into this mess in the first place."

Never is any context provided.  "The next time you hear someone complaining that DOGE is “slashing” federal spending or “dismantling” the government, pay close attention. There will almost certainly be an important fact left out: The gargantuan federal deficit.

Every day brings a new sob story about how someone is being hurt by Elon Musk’s chainsaw because some federal program is being shut down, or because a precious federal job has been axed.

"Never in any of these is any context provided. And in this case, context is everything.

"By the time President Donald Trump took office – four months into the new fiscal year (which started last October), the federal government was already $840 billion in the red. That’s a 58% increase from the prior year. 

"If all goes well, the deficit for this year will total $1.9 trillion, according to the Treasury Department, which would be the third annual increase.

"The result is that the national debt is now $37 trillion – more than double what it was a decade ago. Interest on the debt took off like a rocket under Joe Biden.

"None of this is sustainable." . . .

"And if anyone suggests to you that Trump’s 2017 tax cuts are to blame, they aren’t." . . .

In Paterson, New Jersey, the local Muslims show their hand

Andrea Widburg   

"As the leftists like to say, America is a country of immigrants. However, the immigrants who built this nation came here so that they could become Americans. Muslims, per the Koran's mandates, are coming here so that America can become Muslim." . . .

"Most people don’t spend much time thinking about Paterson, New Jersey. It’s time, though, that they start to do so, because unfolding there is the perfect example of the fact that many Muslims believe the Islamic doctrine that says you don’t immigrate to assimilate; you do so to conquer.

"Paterson is a town with a long history. The Dutch took the region from the Acquackanonk tribe and the British took it from the Dutch. After the Revolution, the town itself was founded, it was one of the first great manufacturing towns, thanks to the energy derived from the Great Falls of the Passaic River. Eventually, Paterson was home to textile mills, firearm manufacturers (Samuel Colt started, but didn’t stay, there), and breweries. Industry meant immigrants, but, until recently, these immigrants wanted to assimilate to the American way.

"But things are changing in Paterson. Of its almost 160,000 people, 25,000 to 30,000 are Muslims, almost all of whom are clustered in Paterson’s south side. This means it has the second-largest Muslim population in the U.S. per capita—that is, coming up on 20% of the population—putting it second only to Dearborn, MI, which clocks in at 55% Muslim. 

"At 20%, the Muslims in Paterson aren’t the largest group demographic (Hispanics are, at 62%), but Muslims do something that other minority groups don’t: They vote. They now have three council members, making them 30% of the voice on the council. One can assume that the remaining council members in this strongly Democrat town are sympathetic to Muslim issues.

Here’s what happens in an American city with a Muslim population of almost 20% and a town council representation of 30%: . . ."

Activists Chant 'Death To America And Israel' In Farsi At Chicago Left-Wing Meet   Leaked Footage Shows How Dangerous Pro-Palestine Activists Are Getting - YouTube  "Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” shares a DM clip of pro-Palestine activist Shabbir Rizvi teaching activists at the Anti-War Committee Chicago how to chant “death to America” and “death to Israel” in Farsi." Agitator behind ‘Death to America’ chants in Chicago contributes to Iran state TV, Hezbollah-linked channel (msn.com)

I do not know which I find more disgusting; the foreign Iranians in our land chanting "Death to America!" or the Americans who, like sheep, were happy to be led by those who wanted to murder all Jews. ("Zionist Freaks", he said!) If I were chanting along with them after learning the bare-handed murder of Jewish babies, I'd be masked as well. TD

A ‘Putin’s Puppet’ President? Obama’s Truly Shocking Record

M. Walter  

"Next, Obama (via Secretary of State Hillary Clinton) makes his intentions tangible with a gift. A literal reset button,. Except… oops. Turns out “peregruzka,” the word they had printed on the button, means “overloaded” or “overcharged.' ” . . .

"We hear a lot of talk about how Trump has “upset norms,” and “abandoned our allies” to “side with a dictator,” but so far as I can tell, while Trump is “siding” with Putin, nobody has ever accused him of “wooing” Putin. “Wooing” isn’t even my word. It’s the Washington Post’s and it’s not about Trump. It’s about Obama. In May 2012, having watched Obama debase himself for the better part of four years, the Post had had enough and called it “wooing.” Trump’s been accused of pretty much everything as it relates to Putin, but never “wooing.”

In fact, a very good argument could be made that Obama’s 2008-2012 first term “wooing” softened the ground for Putin’s geopolitical adventurism ever since.

When one reviews Obama’s table-setting rhetorical blunders and truly shocking betrayals of allies, stripped of the whipped cream of the legacy media, it makes it painfully easy to see who was, in reality, “aligned with Putin” and was, in fact, his “puppet.”

It starts a month before the 2008 general election. In the final, October presidential debate, Obama makes his intentions clear: ‘We simply cannot return to a “cold war posture“ with Russia." . . .

No Nation Wants the Gazans

 San Diego Jewish World 

 . . ."The thousands of Gazan fighters and “civilians” tearing into Israeli communities across the border stealing, raping, and killing convinced all (except the few die-hard, Marxist Israelis) that a Palestinian state next to Israel is the worst idea." . . .

Toon added  by TD

"KFAR SABA, Israel — The Jerusalem Post has editorialized “Those who have called for ceasefires, who have demanded negotiations with Hamas, must now ask themselves: How do you negotiate with monsters? How do you make peace with those who murder babies and celebrate their deaths? Hamas-supporting parents and their children stood by in Gaza, watching the spectacle of Israeli children’s bodies being paraded around.”

"The editorial continued: “What kind of society allows such evil to flourish? Israel must respond with the full force of its power. This is no longer just about retrieving hostages; this is about eradicating a force of pure evil. There is no justification, no rationalization, and no compromise to be made with those who revel in the suffering of innocents.”

"Israel’s war with Hamas and Gaza is far from over. Similar Israeli fighting against terrorists is ongoing in Lebanon and in Judea & Samaria (aka West Bank). But Gaza is much worse, because many Israeli captives are still held there by Hamas. Israel’s hands are somewhat tied because: a) Hamas will never give up all the hostages, who are their main protection; b) extensive bombing may inadvertently kill hostages; c) the ‘world’ blames Israel for destroying Gaza and puts roadblocks in front of the Israeli government, handicapping IDF actions.

"During this period, intensive negotiations are going on among Israel, the US, and significant Arab countries to plan the next few decades in Gaza. Hamas is still the most powerful force there, defending itself against Israel’s war aim of ousting it from power. Up to and including the present, the Palestinian Arabs in Gaza have been prevented from escaping the war zone, except for some thousands who successfully bribed their way over the border with Egypt. (This reminds one of East Germany, where citizens were also prevented from leaving the country.)

"Egypt won’t allow the Gazans into the relatively huge, sparsely populated Sinai Peninsula, because Egypt doesn’t want additional terrorists in the Sinai, which already has many hyper-jihadist fighters. Nor does Jordan want them, because its population is already about 3/4 Palestinian Arabs, who are cousins of the Gazans. The shaky Hashemite dynasty fears more Palestinian Arabs entering Jordan would cause its ouster. Without continuous American and Israeli support, King Abdullah would already be mimicking Syria’s Bashar al-Assad, living the ‘good life’ in exile with treasure stolen from his former subjects. Many Arab nations have expelled Palestinian Arabs from their countries. See Note 1 below.

"Israel wants no connection to the Gazans and has every right to refuse partnering with them, or with the Palestinian Authority in the Jewish homeland of Judea & Samaria. The ‘sacred’ 2-state solution is dead and buried as far as even leftist Israelis are concerned. Not only that – 70% of Gazans want to destroy Israel and murder the Jews, not rebuild their ruined statelet. If there ever was significant approval of “two states living side by side in peace,” current events have extinguished it. See: https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-840517" . . .

ICE arrests Palestinian leader of Columbia’s anti-Israel protests, revoking student visa and green card: lawyer

 NY Post  

“These protesters were handing out materials from terrorist organizations Hamas and Hezbollah. Every American citizen should be concerned when students are encouraging terrorist activities on US soil regardless of their nationality.” 

Activist Mahmoud Khalil was arrested Sunday, his attorney Amy Greer told AP.

"President Trump is giving this anti-Israel campus rabble-rouser a ticket to study abroad — for good.

"A Palestinian activist who led a coalition of twisted radicals seeking the “total eradication of Western civilization” responsible for riotous protests at Columbia University and Barnard College has been arrested by ICE agents, according to his lawyer.

"Columbia University Apartheid Divest leader Mahmoud Khalil, who completed his graduate studies at Columbia in December, also potentially faces having his visa revoked and his green card canceled following Trump’s crackdown on unrest at colleges, attorney Amy Greer said Sunday.

"He was inside his university-owned apartment a few blocks from the Ivy League campus Saturday night when ICE agents entered and took him into custody, Greer said.

"Despite graduating months ago, Khalil, who earned his undergraduate degree in Beirut, still lived in school-provided housing due to a policy allowing students to remain on campus after graduating, a source told The Post." . . .

"The news comes just days after Trump announced plans to yank about $400 million in federal grants and contracts from Columbia due to its noncompliance with anti-discrimination laws."

Victor Davis Hanson: Trump’s Democratic ‘Allies’

 American Greatness 

 "Democrats’ obsessive Trump hatred blinds them to their own unpopularity, making his counter-revolution seem inevitable—and even normal." 

"Former Clinton strategist James Carville has reinvented himself at age 80 as a sage Democrat podcaster. His predictions—remember, a victorious Kamala Harris?—are usually wrong. He enjoys engaging in public duels with celebrities to gain online clicks and media appearances.

"Yet sometimes he appears judicious in his effort to return his party to the Clinton glory days of 1992-2000, before the takeover of the party by the lunatic left. That said, he too has become part of the new left nihilism he supposedly despises.

"Most recently, Dr. Carville diagnosed Donald Trump as suffering from tertiary syphilis. Carville’s “proof” was his identification of a bruise on Trump’s much-used shaking hand, along with his supposed brain dementia. As confirmation, Carville described Trump as a “fat f—ing slob” with a “beached whale body.” So, a once top Democratic strategist has gone from his 1992 iconic campaign reminder, “It’s the economy, stupid,” to smearing Trump as a fat slob with syphilis. Carville’s descent sums up his entire party."  

 "Meanwhile, the congressional Democratic opposition finds itself loudly and proudly standing with only 20-30 percent of the American people on matters from biological males competing in female sports to an open border. For years, Democrats claimed the lack of “comprehensive immigration reform” prevented them from securing the border and stopping a 10-12 million influx of illegal aliens. And then they went quiet when Trump, without any new legislation, simply enforced existing immigration statutes and nearly eliminated all illegal entries.

"Defeated candidate Kamala Harris is still trying to reassure donors that she did not know how she blew millions of dollars in last-minute 2024 campaign gifts by paying off the likes of Oprah, Al Sharpton, and Cardi B for interviews and endorsements while flying young staffers around the country on rented private jets.

"The Democratic Congress under Chuck Schumer and Hakim Jeffries demonstrates their opposition to Trump by cutting videos in which party luminaries promise to stop the “sh-t.” Fellow Democratic congresswomen rivaled them with a worse ad in which they dressed in macho kickboxing attire and clumsily gyrated as if they were punching out their conservative opponents.

"At Trump’s first congressional address, most Democrats did not stand when a young survivor of a brain tumor was honored by receiving an honorary Secret Service membership. Instead, many of them displayed hand-held, bingo-like-placards attacking Elon Musk as a thief." . . .

"And Democrats almost daily apparently want the American people to witness their venom—and thereby to be revolted by them."
