What's the latest on the useful idiots and their pro-Ayatollah/ anti- Trump subversion?

Trump Quietly Made China Pay for Funding Those Soros-Style Protests [WATCH]

Below: 'Cigarette girl' burning ayatollah's photo becomes Iran resistance symbol | AP News   The images of women lighting cigarettes from burning photos of Khamenei went viral and grabbed attention across the world. This trend is not new to the world, as the same defiance was seen in 2022 after the death of a 22-year-old, Mahsa Amini.

Why are Iranian women lighting cigarettes from burning Khamenei posters?

"Commentator Carl Higbie argued that recent protests in the United States connected to foreign policy decisions may be linked to funding tied to China, while highlighting a series of moves by President Donald Trump involving oil markets, shipping routes, and global trade.

"During a segment discussing protests that erupted after recent military actions involving Iran and Venezuela, Higbie said the demonstrations appeared coordinated and organized.

"What does Trump’s new shipping insurance declaration for the Strait of Hormuz, Iran, Venezuela and the Panama Canal and China all have in common? Well, come on down this rabbit hole with me, and believe it or not, it starts right here in America with protests,” Higbie said.

"Violence erupted Friday evening at Washington Square Park in Manhattan during a vigil organized for Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei after a counter-protester tore down a photo of the cleric, leading to a confrontation that left the man bloodied and several people taken into custody.

"The incident occurred during a small gathering where roughly 25 people had assembled to commemorate Khamenei, who was killed last Saturday during a joint U.S.–Israeli military strike known as “Operation Fury.”

"The operation targeted Iranian leadership and infrastructure, with Israeli missiles striking Khamenei’s compound." . . .

“I couldn’t help but notice that all the protests in the US within hours of the Iranian strike, this seems pretty well organized. In fact, they’re all carrying bundles of signs to distribute to the crowd. Look at the nice yellow, black writing. And have you ever noticed that all the people protesting these airstrikes in Iran have the exact same signs, exact same fonts, exact same colors, and in many cases, some of these appear to be the same people from the Venezuela protest a month ago.” . . .  More...

That Jesse Jackson Memorial Service Was a Gathering of the Worst People

 That Jesse Jackson Memorial Service Was a Gathering of the Worst People

"If you want to know why Donald Trump was elected, watch Barack Obama’s attack speech yesterday at Jesse Jackson’s funeral. As he did throughout his presidency, he created a straw man to describe Republicans as bigots who force the American people to “turn on each other”.

He said similar crap when he was President and the GOP was the party of Bush, McCain and Romney. It’s the language of bitterness and resentment that makes good people recoil to be described that way. 

Obama is one of the most divisive figures in US history, except he is celebrated by the MSM because they are partisans. They take sides and loved and protected Obama.

It’s no wonder a tough, no BS, bull in the China shop emerged. That person was a fed up Trump, who broke the MSM by not caring what they thought. He showed Rs they could punch back against the Ds and win. His rise coincided with the welcome birth, at long last, of conservative media which gave voice to the voiceless who had been forced to consume the prejudices of the MSM.

I can’t stand Obama. He was weak, patronizing, condescending and he put America last. 

 "And Kamala Harris got up there with all the hits, reminding us how we all dodged a bullet by keeping her out of the Oval Office. A person who hates making tough decisions, and that’s Kamala, isn’t meant for that job. Oh, and she’s still mentally challenged. Also, you didn't predict Jack, honey. You don't have the bandwidth."

But having listened to him yesterday, I reminded the only good thing he did was help elect President Trump. Kamala Harris made a statement. She said, ‘This is a war the American people don’t want. “And who knows more about what the American people don’t want?”

Iranians and Jews celebrate Khamenei’s death shoulder to shoulder in north London streets

Iranians and Jews celebrate Khamenei's death shoulder to shoulder in north London streets | The Times of Israel    After their Persian neighbors showed support following Oct. 7, Jewish Londoners return the gesture, joining jubilant crowds Saturday night cheering the prospect of regime change

"LONDON — Cars draped in the flags of Iran’s former monarchy drove through the streets of north London on Saturday night, blaring lively music and honking their horns, shortly after reports came out that the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed earlier that day in an Israeli airstrike — and even before Iranian media confirmed the death of the man who had brutally ruled the country for 36 years.

"Alongside them, pedestrians sang and cheered. They did not just bear the Iranian colors — but those of Israel and the United States, as well.

"Khamenei had presided over a brutal crackdown on anti-government protests in January in which thousands of Iranians were killed by security forces, and citizens at home and abroad welcomed the news of his death, which came amid heavy bombing of regime and military targets by the US and Israel. Both US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have urged citizens in Iran to take to the streets and finish the job of toppling the regime once the aerial campaign is over.

"In the meantime, areas home to both Jewish and Iranian communities, such as Finchley and Golders Green, saw massive celebrations that included displays of fireworks and members of the Orthodox Jewish community singing in Persian and Hebrew together with their Iranian neighbors.

“ 'We’d just finished dinner in London when we heard that Khamenei had reportedly been confirmed dead,” Meir Porat, a 55-year-old construction manager, told The Times of Israel. “Within minutes, word spread that spontaneous celebrations were happening in north London. I knew this was not a moment to watch from a distance.”

 Iranians in London gathered outside the U.S. Embassy to honor American troops who gave their lives.    A deeply respectful moment.

Everyone should agree with this change. All I see are people suffering from TDS opposing it because Trump is involved. This has been needed for decades since the moment this regime took over.

The mainstream media is obsessed with hoping Trump fails in Iran

 Jack Hellner - American Thinker  

"And the public is told that these people are the adults in the room, the compassionate people, the progressive people, the smart people by most of the media as they seek to destroy Trump every day of his presidency."

"What is with the media these days?

"Here is an article by people posing as journalists at Reuters whose writing would make you think they are deer in the headlights. 

U.S. President Donald Trump demanded Iran's "unconditional surrender" on Friday, a dramatic escalation one week into the war he launched alongside Israel that could make it more difficult to negotiate a swift end to hostilities.

"They think it is terrible that Trump demands unconditional surrender from Iranian leaders as they are pounded to oblivion because it harms "diplomacy" as if that has worked for 47 years to end the destruction of the Iranian people and the damage to the world. 

 

"They loved Presidents Obama and Biden as they catered to Iranian leaders and gave them boatloads of money to build weapons and support terrorist groups. They didn't mind when Obama shipped the Iranian leaders cash and when he let Hezbollah off the hook for drugging in the U.S to appease Iran. They probably thought that was "smart" diplomacy. 

 

Another article from Reuters says that Russia and China demand an immediate end to the war in Iran as they continue a four-year war on Ukraine. This is what they wrote:

 

• China's Wang says killing of Iranian leader unacceptable
• Wang, Russia's Lavrov call for immediate end to strikes
• Russia says security of Gulf states must be guaranteed

  U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran are unacceptable, China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on Sunday as he called for an immediate ceasefire and the resumption of talks to prevent a wider regional conflict.

 "The Reuters writer probably doesn't see a problem with that or think that Russia and Chian should have a say. They clearly don't care that Iran has had a policy of death to America and death to Israel. 

 

"And here in this United Nations press release are the UN experts on human rights demanding an end to the war because it is a threat to the right to life. "  . . .More

‘This L is on her’: Black lawmakers and strategists dump on Crockett

  POLITICO

AfterMath - Home

"Black Democratic strategists, lawmakers and activists are frustrated that Texas Democrats rejected Jasmine Crockett as their Senate nominee Tuesday night — but they also saw it coming.

"Following Crockett’s single-digit loss, they recounted a laundry list of why she fell to state Rep. James Talarico: Her campaign was unfocused; she had an insufficient campaign infrastructure to challenge Talarico, even though she earned the backing of former Vice President Kamala Harris. They also said her media strategy relied too heavily on social media rather than television ad buys — typically seen as critical in a sprawling state like Texas and its nearly two dozen media markets.

“ 'People who don’t understand politics will be upset because Jasmine was their hero,” said Texas state Rep. Jolanda Jones, a Democrat. “But for people who understand politics, [Crockett] literally had no ground game.”

"She added: “This L is on her.”

"Taken together, Crockett’s campaign shortcomings doomed the upstart Senate bid of the two-term congressmember who entered the contest with broad name recognition and hopes of showcasing her firebrand personality and penchant for viral moments to help Texas Democrats end their nearly 40-year winless streak in Senate races.

"Still, Black strategists and activists warn Crockett’s loss will have ripple effects.

They say the party rejected an established star in favor of an untested, white state lawmaker over style — the two candidates did not substantively disagree on policy — raising concerns that Black voters, especially women, will not turn out when the party needs them the most.

“ 'A lot of Black women who work in the Democratic Party, vote for Democrats, organize for Democrats, have always had a sense of this,” said Houston-based political strategist and social media influencer Tayhlor Coleman. “It is a lot more apparent now: A lot of people in the Democratic Party want our labor, they do not want our leadership.” . . .   More...

Daylight Saving Begins on Sunday—What to Know About Efforts to Lock the Clock

Clocks across America will jump an hour back at 2:00 a.m. on Sunday morning.  

 The Thinking Conservative News  

"Any efforts to eliminate daylight saving time in Washington, D.C., will likely have backing from President Donald Trump, who previously suggested he’d support it, saying it was inconvenient and costly."

"It’s almost time!

Daylight saving time will begin on Sunday, causing clocks to skip forward an hour at 2:00 a.m. for most people living in the United States.

The majority of Americans who are expected to lose an hour of sleep on March 8 don’t support the current daylight saving system.

An AP-NORC poll from 2025 showed that just over 10 percent of Americans supported the current system, while nearly half of the others polled opposed it. The rest of the survey-takers remained neutral about the topic.

But there are efforts to lock the clock so Americans can press snooze (for good) on the ongoing “spring forward” and “fall back” rules, which disrupt sleep schedules from coast to coast twice a year.

History

Daylight saving has been a controversial topic for over a decade in the United States.

In the late 1800s, railroads used different time zones. Then, in the 1940s, President Franklin D. Roosevelt turned the entire nation’s clocks an hour ahead to save energy for World War II, and after that, in the 1960s, the Uniform Time Act of 1966 established a uniform Daylight Saving Time across most of America.

Every year, daylight saving time starts on the second Sunday in March for “spring forward” and ends on the first Sunday in November for “fall back.”

Mamdani's Wife Liked Social Media Posts Celebrating Hamas' Oct 7 Slaughter of Israeli Civilians -

 Slay News

"New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing renewed scrutiny after a report claimed his wife, Rama Duwaji, liked several social media posts appearing to celebrate Hamas’s October 7, 2023, terrorist attack against Israel.

"The report, published by Jewish Insider, says the activity occurred shortly after the assault that killed nearly 1,200 Israelis and foreign workers, wounded thousands, and saw 251 civilians and military personnel kidnapped, along with reports of widespread rape.

"Posts Allegedly Celebrated the Attack."

“New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani spent the mayoral campaign distancing himself from the most radical anti-Israel elements of his leftist movement, but an examination of his wife’s social media activity reveals she liked multiple Instagram posts cheering on Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, assault,” Jewish Insider reported.

“The posts liked by Rama Duwaji, a Syrian-American artist, unambiguously celebrated the terrorist attack, which saw nearly 1,200 Israelis and foreign workers killed, thousands wounded, 251 civilians and military personnel kidnapped, and numerous episodes of sexual assault.”

Posts Included Images of Hamas Breaching Israel’s Border . . .

Pretty Boy Becomes Ugly; The next plank in Gavin Newsom’s campaign platform — antisemitism.

  The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  

"God help us when this magnificent state, God’s gift to mankind, has become a bastion of hate."

 "Your humble servant, Ben Stein, has been a citizen of the Golden State since 1972. It was then that I moved to Santa Cruz and taught for a brief while at the spectacular campus of UC, Santa Cruz. There are not enough words to say how magnificent that campus was in those days. I was introduced to it by my dear friend from Yale Law School, Chris Wilson.

"He and his wife and my wife and I drove to an overlook at Cowell College and stared at the Bay of Monterey. I swore I would return. Sure enough, thanks to my film school professor, Stanley Kauffmann, I got a job teaching about the political and economic content of entertainment movies at College V just months later. The scenery was so perfect that my heart stopped the first hundred times I walked across the foot bridges going across the campus.

"Sadly, I left the College V world after a student put up a huge Nazi swastika made of tables and chairs in the college dining hall. I complained about it to the College V top dog, James B. Hall. He responded with a nasty, antisemitic letter to the student in question. I asked him to apologize to me and to the students of College V, many of whom were Jewish. He doubled down with an even more bitterly antisemitic letter about me.

"I left and went back to my native Washington, D.C. There, I soon went to work for Mr. Nixon as a speechwriter. That’s another story.

"Anyway, I have now lived and worked in sunny Cal since June 30, 1976, as a script writer, novelist, economist, lawyer, law teacher, and expert witness. I love California. I love the weather and the climate and pretty much everything else.

"But I do not like at all the exploding antisemitism in the air. It has been here for a LONG time. But now, with Israel and the USA trying to stop the Iranian hate/murder regime, and the antisemites all over the left side of the state, I am moved to anger and fear.

"The most awful part of it is Gavin Newsom, our governor. He is now speaking out in hate phrases against Israel. Israel is the most urgent, most powerful enemy that the Islamic genocide architects face. Mr. Newsom is urging Americans to stop Israel from defending itself. He calls Israel hate names and phrases and urges Americans not to allow Israel the weapons it needs to defend itself. This is done to help Newsom get to the top of the heap of the Democrat party, which has become ever more racist day by day." . . .

Democrat party leaders make an ugly spectacle of themselves at Jesse Jackson’s funeral

 Andrea Widburg   

On the other hand, Jackson’s memorial was the perfect send-off for a man who hitched his wagon to Martin Luther King’s star—a star that won the nation’s soul by pointing to America’s future as a colorblind meritocracy—and then spent decades reducing that message to a Democrat party platform of race-hustling redistribution.

"In 2002, Senator Paul Wellstone, a leftist senator from Minnesota, died in a plane crash. His funeral made national headlines, not because it was a solemn and beautiful service honoring a great man (that is, a memorial like Charlie Kirk’s), but because it turned into a raging Democrat political rally. The funeral was so vile that Wellstone’s staff had to apologize for what happened.

"That was then. Now, of course, it’s de rigueur to turn memorials for well-known Democrats into political rallies, so Jesse Jackson’s memorial was no exception.

"Barack Obama, the man who ran in 2008 on uniting America, used the opportunity to launch a brutal attack on MAGA. Always trailing in someone else’s shadow, Kamala Harris did the same. Joe Biden, meanwhile, used the opportunity to tell everyone in attendance that they were stupid. For once in his life, Biden may have been right, although he abandoned his “smart” credentials when he forgot about Clarence Thomas.

"Looking at Jesse Jackson’s career, despite his allegedly telling his family that he wanted a non-political funeral, the memorial was a fitting capstone to a man who traded in racial ugliness for decades. Jackson was also a forerunner of today’s overt antisemitism on the left.

"Barack Obama (who arrived without Michelle, who couldn’t be bothered to honor a party icon) couldn’t say enough about how wonderful Jackson...er, scratch that. Couldn’t say enough about how vile MAGA is—and please note how the Hawaii-born Obama, who went from one high-end white school to another, intermittently mimics the cadence of a black Alabama preacher. These people are so fake." . . .

Iran's weapons are increasingly becoming missiles with nowhere to go.

 Shanaka Anslem Perera   

The missiles still exist in tunnels and caches across Iran. They are increasingly becoming missiles with nowhere to go.

"oooooh! Up in smoke!

 

"Everyone is counting Iran’s missiles. They are counting the wrong thing. "The number that determines the outcome of this war is not 2,000 or 2,500 or 3,000. Those are pre-war missile inventory estimates and they are now largely irrelevant. The number that determines the outcome is the one that moved from 504 to 29 in five days. "On Day 1 of Operation Epic Fury, Iran fired 504 ballistic missiles and drones across the Gulf theater. On Day 5, the number was 29. That is a 94 percent collapse in daily launch volume in less than a week. Not because Iran ran out of missiles. Because Iran ran out of the thing that launches them. "Launchers." . . .

. . . "Iran’s missile doctrine was built on volume and simultaneity. The mass salvo, hundreds of missiles launched in coordinated waves from dispersed platforms designed to overwhelm Iron Dome and US Patriot batteries by saturating their intercept capacity, is the only mechanism by which Iran’s missile force constitutes a genuine strategic threat to Israel. A degraded launcher pool that can produce 29 fires per day is not a mass salvo capability. It is a harassment capability. The two are not the same threat in any meaningful military sense." . . .

The HORRORS of Ayatollah Khomeinis Execution Methods

American Thinker

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s murderous history of tyranny as Iran’s supreme leader   "Iran’s eliminated tyrant Ayatollah Ali Khamenei spent nearly 37 years as the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, overseeing a murderous, oppressive regime with more than 30,000 state-sponsored executions under his watch.

"The 86-year-old tyrannical cleric – who assumed control over the Islamic Republic of Iran in June 1989 — has been widely condemned over the past few decades for violating human rights, sky-high execution rates, violently suppressing protests and mass discrimination.

"He has crushed a slew of nationwide demonstrations, including protests in 2022 supporting Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Iranian woman who died after being arrested for allegedly violating strict hijab rules.

"There were 2,201 people executed last year under Khamenei’s rule — the most grisly yearly total under his regime. It continued a decades-long tradition of discriminating against religious minorities, same-sex couples, women – and anyone who criticized the government, according to the National Council of Resistance of Iran.

"And he ordered the deaths of as many as 10,000 protesters or more who hit the streets in recent months to demand change." . . .More...
