Great video!
–I just stumbled across these people (Yoel & Mari) a few months ago They also have a video on how they got Joel out of Cuba on a K-1 Visa.

They have another channel at YT called “Sin Censura with Yoel & Mari.”

I liked Browne–he seemed like a real human being. The rest in that audience struck me as absolutely feral.

Nexstar and Sinclair have both announced that Kimmel’s show is not coming back to their stations. This should have a significant effect on Kimmel’s ratings, perhaps even enough to put his show “underwater” in terms of revenue vs. cost. If that happens, then it’s just a matter of how much bleeding Disney/ABC will tolerate before Kimmel goes the way of Colbert.

Edward & Milt,

Good analogy to the post-WW2 denazification of Europe. The psychology of Nazism, Fascism and Japanese militarism was basically the same as a typical religious cult, just at a larger scale. That’s very much true of contemporary woke progressivism as well. The main approach to marginalizing the various Axis ideologies started with their defeat and removal from power. A decent start has been made on that process here in the US anent woke progressivism, but it needs to be both extended and defended.

That will include systematically cutting off the left’s access to funding. DOGE and Trump’s recent move to end at least some of the unionization of federal workforces are good starts. The harrowing of the NGOs will produce additional progress. Something also needs to be done about foundations and university endowments.

The Democratic Party has, for much of its history, been essentially a protection racket. Power was its product. Keep it out of power and no one will feel compelled to contribute anymore in order to avoid being destroyed. That will reduce the Democratic Party to the marginal coastal elite rump it actually is. There will be people who contribute out of ideological conviction for awhile, but without vast quantities of Other People’s Money coerced or stolen from the general public, the Democratic Party will dwindle and become just another of those irrelevant 1% or 2% parties that the country has always had plenty of.

Getting a new census ASAP that excludes non-citizens from Congressional, state and local redistricting computations would be a big additional non-monetary step. Doing that will assist in taking back the governments of so-called “blue” states from the goblins currently running them. And there must also be a concerted push to turf woke progressives out of academe.

Jeff Wright,

As you correctly note, the left has long since gobbled up the Libertarian Party. I was fairly heavily involved in Libertarian Party politics in the early 1980s and one could see the beginnings of the leftist takeover even then. That was among the larger of the reasons I left the LP in the mid-80s.

A young non conservative couple went to the memorial. He is from Cuba and She from America.

At this point it is hard to envision any kind of a soft landing for the Democrats. As Robert points out, “The Democratic Party’s leadership and its radical left base in academia and the entertainment business seem incapable of recognizing [their declining popularity with those registering to vote and their polling numbers]. Instead, it doubles down.”

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich would seem to concur, and as he stated in an interview earlier today:

“[F]irst of all, we are in the early stages of a cultural civil war, which is very real, and I think that that’s hard for people to grasp. But the people on the other side are totally sincere. We may think that they’re crazy, we may think that they make no sense, but they inside their worldview, they’re faced with annihilation because the American people and President Trump have come together to fundamentally go back to classic American values and classic American rules.”

and

“[At America’s New Majority Project polling] we guessed that somewhere between fifteen and twenty percent of the American people side with the big government socialists and their weird values, and the rest of the country clearly opposes them. And so what you’re going to see is more and more, I think, the fervor and fanaticism as they literally see all the things that they want to happen disappear, as the American people sort of return to a core belief in the constitution, in the work ethic, and the right to rise based on meritocracy, and a whole range of things, all of which are direct threats to the people on the left who are speaking in such harsh language.”

Similarly, James Howard Kunstler observed this morning that:

“In our country these days, all of this has apparently produced two camps at war psychologically, now verging on something like a hot civil war. One camp calling itself ‘progressive’ insists on a roster of ideas, policies, and practices that look patently absurd, abusive of the public interest, and hostile to the values of Western Civ. The other camp styles itself as ‘conservative’ seeking to preserve Western Civ and the advancement of our so-called way of life — an ever growth-seeking high-tech economy.”

The question is what that 15 to 20 percent of America-hating, would-be Marxist revolutionaries will “do” when they are pressed to the wall, and what the rest of America will do in response. “The Squad” is clearly not backing down, and neither is Governor Newsom in California. Instead, he is *defying* the Trump Administration in every way that he possibly can, and he seems no more willing to accept defeat and come to terms than Hamas, who is willing to fight to the death of the last Palestinian. (Rather like the mayor of Chicago, who cares nothing for how many black kids are gunned down in his city every weekend. He’ll hang on until the last dead kid.)

After World War II, America had the daunting task of trying to extirpate Nazi ideology in Germany and upending the unquestioning fealty of the Japanese people to their Emperor and the Warlord class. Now, we seem to be faced with dismantling the ideological armature of an intractable domestic enemy that is no less — and probably even more — dedicated to the destruction of our country / culture / society than the Axis Powers once were. All to be done, of course, within the framework of the Constitution, the Rule of Law, and the better angels of our nature.

When I was in college, [*cough*] decades ago, the leftists would shut down someone who didn’t agree with them, then as he went away licking his emotional wounds, the leftists would pat each other on the back and remind themselves that they were intolerant only of intolerance. It sounded like they were the perfect ones, but the reality was obvious that they defined “intolerant” as anyone who disagreed with them.

This behavior had several advantages. First, it helped them shut down disagreeable free speech. Second, they then felt better about themselves, despite being obvious bullies. Third, it kept all the leftists in line, as anyone who strayed from the politically-correct opinions of the day (and they changed often*) would be shunned and receive the same treatment as those they called “intolerant.” Fourth, it kept them segregated from those who had different ideas, opinions, or wanted to say disagreeable things.

A disadvantage is that they really have no idea what the rest of the world thought, because they just won’t listen to anything disagreeable. I do believe that this disadvantage is biting them in the gluteus maximus today. Being segregated from reality (right down to not being able to define a woman, other than “I’ll know one when I claim to be one”) prevents them from understanding their opposition, or anyone else, for that matter.

So, if Charlie Kirk says anything disagreeable, he is subject to being called “fascist,” “racist,” “Nazi,” “homophobe,” “transphobic,” “hate-monger,” “Hitler,” “hater,” “denier,” “misogynist,” “bigot,” “reprehensible,” “monster,” and “Dr. Frankenstein.” He is the intolerant one, not those who are unable to tolerate having him on the planet.

Ilhan Omar is the Dr. Frankenstein that she claims Kirk to be. Even the words that she uses now are designed to influence impressionable people. It seems that she has long succeeded in influencing them, all right, but many of them are no longer influenced in the way she desires. By the way, if Omar had read Shelly’s book, the creation does not turn on the doctor but turns to him to make a fellow creature as his wife. It is the rest of the world that the creation harms or threatens to harm, and [*** SPOILER ALERT *** Stop reading here, if you want to be surprised by the end and beginning of the book] the doctor ends up chasing the creature across the arctic.

* Even the leftists said that there needed to be a “PC Magazine” (Politically Correct, not the Personal Computer “PC Magazine” that had existed at the time) in order for everyone to be able to keep up with the rapidly changing PC opinions, attitudes, and battlecries. Many leftist students were being meanly chastised when they failed to keep up with the latest PC change. How terrible it was to think you were one of the tolerant ones, only to discover suddenly that you were considered intolerant for saying something today that you were cheered for saying yesterday.

I remember the convention where Trump razzed them about five percent of the vote–but what really stood out was this bald open-borders stooge whose name escapes me.

The DNC will likely back country club Republicans who look down their noses at the rank and file.

They’ll have their pictures taken with hunting gear and Bibles to be sure. Don’t fall for it.

I drive our local Democrat head quarters every day. Since Mr Kirk was shot they have been barricading their doors with vans parked blocking them 24 hours a day.

The other day a group of Democrats was walking the neighbor hood trying sign people up.
The next day an anti war group came by looking for donations and sign ups. (Found out they were really a pro Palestine lefty group.) And they really tried to hide who they actually were.

It looks like the democrats are now looking to hide who they really are and are looking for middle of the road pro life candidates.
Trying to fool moderate Dem voters.

Watch for this tactic. When you see it post it every place you can. The midterms are very important this time around and we on the right have a great chance of taking a bunch of new seats.

Despite all its slogans and sayings in reference to tolerance, such as “COEXIST”, the Left has no tolerance at all. IT demands that all fall in line, or that all be controlled.
