The loss of support comes after a POLITICO report that a woman said the Maine Democratic Senate nominee sexually assaulted her in 2021. He d
I am sorry, you had no clue before? To Democratic politicians: it is your judgment (or lack thereof) that is at issue. This is what happens when you stand for nothing, try to appease your fringe elements, and care for nothing but power. Maybe it’s time to act as adults and disassociate yourselves from the anti-semites and the communist DSA cabal.
"The people themselves therefore are its only safe depositories."
Thomas Jefferson
Would that were this were still true.
Could it be? A Commie Comeback?
I'm no Irene Reilly (mother of Ignatious) , finding evidence of the "Communis" at every turn, but only a dimwit would dismiss the recent victories of the Democratic Socialists.
Look at this way friends, they're a word away from, in Aretha's words, calling this song exactly what it is (what it is, what is), and that is socialism. Which as we all know is the freshly showered, polite version of communism your sister brought home from Sarah Lawrence to meet mom and dad. They leave their Che’ beret in the Prius.
Well, how did we get here? Just like the majority of American voters in the last presidential election the commies were deeply disappointed with candidate Kamala "SAMO" Harris. And, like many of us on the Right, they found the embedded professional political class of the Swamp to be out of touch with the daily challenges of everyday life.
To make their message more appealing, they sexed it up with the false eyelashes and rhinestones promise of no jails and borders. Woo-hoo! Party time. 'cause ain't nothing gonna help the working people more than competition for jobs from, umm "guests" from countries where life is truly desperate. Okay, that part of the platform needs some help.
And we are to blame. Yep, the Tea Party-MAGA-no more wars-government off my back-whatever you wanna call us crowd is to blame. Sir? Sir, put your gun down while I bloviate. Besides, I'm a far better shot than you will ever be, so as Jagger implored the Altamont audience "cool out, people."
President Trump's "messaging", as the permaclass calls campaign themes, in his 2016 election was smart. He spoke to the millions of Americans who felt excluded from the fringe-baiting messaging of the mainstream Democratic Party. His brilliance was making his candidacy about citizens who felt excluded from the American Dream.
And then he fumbled. His last campaign devolved into a platform that was an outraged pity party. And people bought what he was selling. Instead of joy over electing a President who appeared to be listening to the millions of citizens without a college degree, we voted for an angry man who, with no evidence, claimed the 2020 election was stolen from him. Had he faced a stronger candidate than Vice President Harris he would be kvetching from the sidelines.
It's time to return to the values of conservatism, because our ideas win elections. More freedom. Fewer laws. Lower taxes. Competition in education. An economy that succeeds without our current state of permanent war. Continued border law enforcement. Stop assuming every other country is a harboring a silent majority of people yearning to live in a democratic republic like ours. Overturn the Patriotic Act. Shutter Homeland Security and the TSA. Close the ATF, EPA, and Department of Education. Close the CIA. Layoff half the FBI and remove bank robbery investigations from their duties, Blue Collar Crime is as dead as Dillinger.
I’m just getting warmed up.
Remember, we have better music than the Commies do.
"I'm writing to you from a country that was free too, and which signed its surrender without a single shot fired."
A Letter to America:
"And here's what no one will admit to you: it never happens through revolution. No one votes for decline. We vote for compassion, for security, for justice, for the planet. At every step, we trade a piece of freedom for a promise. And the promises are always beautiful. That's the trap."
The final days of. . .
Jefferson, Adams, and Monroe. All died on July 4th.
Monroe died nearly penniless, in part, from doing the nation's work on his own dime.
“We pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor”. Two hundred years ago fifty-six men put all at risk to found our country, with ideals that have made us the greatest, most diverse, richest, and opportunity-filled land on earth. We should be grateful to them for the risk that they took and the ideals they set forth. It seems among many quarters that patriotism is out of vogue, but I am proud to be an American on this Independence Day. Happy Fourth of July!
Happy Independence Day!

“The study of history is a powerful antidote to contemporary arrogance. It is humbling to discover how many of our glib assumptions, which seem to us novel and plausible, have been tested before, not once but many times and in innumerable guises; and discovered to be, at great human cost, wholly false.”
-Paul Johnson, CBE, British Historian
A Supreme Court justice remembers the signers, soldiers, farmers, fifers, spies, and messengers who made the American Revolution—and reflect
Reminder of the sacrifice of the generation that formed this great country.
Our educational systems are failing our country.
“The Declaration’s 250th anniversary represents an opportunity to rededicate ourselves to our creed and ensure it lives on for future generations. This is a task we cannot neglect. During the Declaration’s 50th anniversary celebrations in 1826, Daniel Webster offered a prediction. “No age will come,” he said, “in which the American Revolution will appear less than it is, one of the greatest events in human history.” But time has tested that judgment. Recent surveys suggest that just one-third of Americans can identify the Declaration as the source of the phrase “we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” Three in 10 Americans are unable to name the three branches of government, let alone explain why their separation promotes the Declaration’s ideals. Six in 10 Americans would flunk the citizenship test.”
“if a nation expects to be ignorant & free, in a state of civilisation, it expects what never was & never will be.”
—Thomas Jefferson
🎨: Robert Edge Pine. “Congress Voting Independence” (1784–1788)
On July 2, 1776, the Second Continental Congress voted to declare that the 13 American colonies were independent states and no longer part of the British Empire.
The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America.—I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by Solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be Solemnized with Pomp and Parade with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.
John Adams in a letter to his wife, Abigail, July 3, 1776.
