Update internet lunatics: my landlord has evicted me on account of your threats.


I’m going to take a page from the leftist playbook of 2016-2024 when they cancelled people constantly for not parroting the approved narrative and say, “Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from the consequences of your speech.” You wanna advocate for violence against the administration? Fine. You get to go apartment hunting.

well, to be fair, human trafficking ain't easy. Even in Maryland.

He is MS13
He was here illegally
He had deportation orders
He had restraining orders put on him by his wife.
He was detained by police in Tennessee when he was pulled over and it appeared he was trafficking 7 Asian women.
He was not charged because Biden's FBI said to release all of them.
He was not mistakenly deported. The story that was told about it being an accident came from a Biden hold over. The Trump administration has repeatedly said it wasn't a mistake.


This is all correct.

Plus: the "stay" on his deportation order was granted only because he made the case that a rival gang in his home country (El Salvador) wanted him dead. The rival gang in question is now eradicated in El Salvador, so the need for the stay no longer exists.

Bonus scuttlebutt on X: the tattoo so prominently on display during his margarita luncheon with a US Senator can only be earned by murdering someone in front of another MS-13 gang member.

Seriously? If this is your issue, then I guess you plan to support fringe 3rd party candidates from here on out, right? Because Dems are the OGs of cracking down on people for free speech, or did you sleep through the Covid era and the Twitter files?

I think Australia WAS a version of this.


True, but they employ this practice today themselves. Can't recall which pod it was, but I recall hearing this discussed--they don't allow illegal immigrants to await determination on their mainland. They apprehend people and put them in some off-shore prison type detention center that is austere, as a deterrent for the practice of trying to illegally enter the country. The idea being to make the practice of attempting illegal entry to Australia as unpalatable as possible.
I think they do a version of this in Australia

And what I took from it wasn't so much that it's all about social security checks going out to dead people (though that certainly happens to an extent) but that it allows a second order of fraud. What he explained (that was news to me) is that many other agencies that disperse entitlements use the Social Security database to prove someone is eligible for other benefits. So, if Agency A, B, C, etc ping the database and the answer comes back, "yes, this person exists and has a social security number" then the fraudster could be getting other benefits even if they aren't receiving a social security check. I thought that was interesting.

In early February 1990, U.S. leaders made the Soviets an offer. According to transcripts of meetings in Moscow on Feb. 9, then-Secretary of State James Baker suggested that in exchange for cooperation on Germany, U.S. could make “iron-clad guarantees” that NATO would not expand “one inch eastward.” Less than a week later, Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev agreed to begin reunification talks. No formal deal was struck, but from all the evidence, the quid pro quo was clear: Gorbachev acceded to Germany’s western alignment and the U.S. would limit NATO’s expansion.

U.S. Secretary of State James Baker’s famous “not one inch eastward” assurance about NATO expansion in his meeting with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev on February 9, 1990, was part of a cascade of assurances about Soviet security given by Western leaders to Gorbachev and other Soviet officials throughout the process of German unification in 1990 and on into 1991, according to declassified U.S., Soviet, German, British and French documents posted today by the National Security Archive at George Washington University (https://nsarchive.gwu.edu).

Well, he seriously sniffed out that Hillary was behind the Russia-gate hoax, so I’m willing give him some leeway.
The in-your-face political bias and corruption in the one place that is supposed to be free of it (our “justice” system) is frankly infuriating. I hope we see some judicial impeachments this year.

Fools gold doesn’t call you racist for asking if affirmative action was still needed after the country elected a black president

Trump needs to channel his inner Andrew Jackson.


I agree with the spirit of this. It may even prove to be the best course. I wonder if Trump is just weighing the benefit of plowing ahead against the absolute apoplexy the left and the media will suffer while screeching about "Trump *is* a dictator, we warned you!" and "extrajudicial" actions and crying about how "no one is above the law!" We all know there is a segment of the relatively politically unengaged population that will be influenced by that.

Anyway, whatever he decides, I'm here for it. I don't think he's made any significant missteps so far.

Nope, impossible. Literally no person ever who had just had a momentous 20 hour day, especially following weeks and months of stressful travelling and campaigning (interrupted only by a couple of assassination attempts) could conceivably appear tired or sleepy during a morning church service. This is an undeniable sign that he is worse off than dementia Joe.

He probably wishes he'd slept through the service he endured with Bishop LGBTQUIA++ Transgendered Immigrant lady.

Maybe if she talks with her hands more and wags that finger with more vigor, she'll get that pay raise she deserves with all that education she has.

My favorite part was when she said she was the least paid person in the Biden White House, not realizing how that basically negates her complaint. :lol:

Elon’s Dodgecast


This DOGE thing has turned out so much better than I expected. I assumed Elon would be quietly auditing in the background and sending reports of his findings to the appropriate bosses or Trump to review and take action on as appropriate. I had no idea he’d be putting every shenanigan he found on blast daily, and I am ecstatic that it’s being done this way! Radical transparency and public awareness may be the only way to drain the swamp.
