U.S. seizes $500 million in IRGC crypto and their French villas; big finance bans SPLC donations; key informant flips on the woke hate-charity; SCOTUS drops decision bomb upending midterm calculations
House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries (AKA dollar store Obama) yesterday, doing his best to sound like a thug, threatened Florida governor Ron Desantis for redistricting Florida, allowing the GOP to gain up to 4 House seats. Democrats have gerrymandered the democrat states so much for so long there’s no more meat left on the bone to keep them afloat politically. With yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling the republicans are just getting going finally. Hakeem needs to know you live by the sword you die by the sword. You live by gerrymandering you die by gerrymandering. Love it!!
PSA: blacks did not loose the right to vote. Black Democrats lost guaranteef districts. Tim scott can win, in majority white districts, Bryon Donald's too.
But "race" is what the Democrats want to make it about... that's what they've ALWAYS made it about... All the way back to Andrew Jackson... the Democratic Party has ALWAYS been the Party of Slavery.
Yep, division, hate, victim-hood, whereas this suprem court decision simply says no discrimination and equal protection under the law for all. No decisions based on race. They long ago abandoned MLK.
Regarding Iran this is a worthy paragraph by Jeff...
"This is the key. We’ve learned that the Iranian Republican Guard Corps (IRGC) is a parasitic mega-corporation that has co-opted the elected government of Iran, and uses the apparatus of state to suck blood and treasure out of the Iranian people, all to enrich a secretive class of demented hypocrites who cosplay as religious maniacs but are really violent mobsters with missiles and an army."
I wish to point out the parasitical fraudulent - rob from the tax payer nature of the Democratic party, so of course the left stream media does not want to highlight this like reflection on their party. Indeed, the radical left gave billions to these dark age thieves.
Prime example of human nature, evident in every culture since the beginning. If a society doesn't work at being good they will good at doing evil. And taking advantage of others. We are living in an era right now where examples are being brought to light and we act surprised.
Thank you Mr. Childers for looking behind the curtain and showing us truth every day.
Well, "They long ago abandoned MLK" isn't a bad thing although I understand your point. MLK was a non-Christian socialist. Look it up. Chad Jackson is an excellent source.
It's ALWAYS about race: keeping the slave owners in Washington and the slaves living ghettos cheering for them and their slave overseerings: preachers, activists, etc (that comes courtesy of Vince Everett Ellison)
Hakeem Jeffries is having his "alternative income streams" dry up due to the annihilation of the "system" that he is oathed/promised/pledged to , so he's "hangry" and "madd" and threatening his colleagues, left, right and center.
Who are the "centrists" in the Dem party? I'm not seeing any except for John Fetterman, who is definitely a Dem, but not as insane as the rest of them.
I was a moderate Democrat for 50+ years so I could vote in the primaries. I sometimes voted independent. What happened in 2020 with the election and covid, blew my mind. WTF. I could not believe what was happening. I switched. I'm following RFK and glad the Trump took him on. I'm thankful. (I've also been an RN for over 50 years :) )
Dr. Linda, I too was a "liberal" to "centrist" Democrat for over 30 years until just enough Democrats decided to join little Georgie Bush and give him his Shock and Awe war in Iraq. That, was my breaking point.
In 2003 I was 52 and had been growing a little more conservative each and every year. Unless one's head is firmly up their butt preventing them from seeing the reality of the changing world around us, it's not hard to see how a political party becomes corrupted by it's leaders. I really dislike calling them "leaders" as they are not so much leading as "corralling" their followers like cattle headed for slaughter.
We've all made mistakes, however, some of us learned from those mistakes.
I remember when a older friend told me to vote red all down the ballot. I said no! I voted for the individual as well. I thought I knew what was doing reading the voter pamphlet 🤣🤣🤣 what a joke! I kick myself for being naive back then. Oh how I have woken up since 2020
Progressives see EVERYONE else in their party at centrists. Anyone who doesn’t pass the purity spiral test is a centrist in their eyes. If they move right on a single issue they are against them. The Dems could go centrist with someone like Rahm Emanuel but the progressives won’t allow it.
He is one of Obama's boyfriends. And if they put him in, and he wins, what we have is Obama's fourth term. And trust me this time Obama will not fail. The reason the left is so pissed off at Trump is all of their plans went in the toilet when Trump stepped up the second time.
He figured out what he was dealing with and that's why we're having so many amazing wins! The left / Bolsheviks/communist/"liberals" have a long game they are playing. This is for all the marbles.
It's the evil combination of Marxism and Islam. That's who Obama is. Fortunately at the end of the day both of those ideologies have different endings in mind. But they're both too stupid to understand using the other one is going to hurt them in the long run. Meanwhile we will suffer if they win.
Fetterman has been 'replaced', no longer the "original" and the WH has figured out how to use this to their advantage, along with the Obamatized legalization of the "false flag" for purposes of "national security". The only thing holding up the "peace" for Iran are the oathed/pledged/promised/masonic degreed/pedigreed that are spouting lies from every news outlet they own.
Fetterman replaced?? Sounds rather conspiracy like. And the Iran war is all for Israel? Lisa, I think you are emotionally wrong on every assertion. Iranian Threats to international trade number in the dozens across 40+ years (routinely tied to sanctions or conflicts), with periodic harassment/attacks (e.g., Tanker War, 2019 incidents, Red Sea 2023+). These actions aim for deterrence/leverage but risk escalation and economic backlash (oil price spikes, rerouting). Exact "count" varies by definition (verbal threat vs. attack vs. sustained blockade), as rhetoric is frequent. Yet here have been at least a 1/2 dozen real attempts.
The slaughter of tens of thousands of innocent civilians, far more over the decades. "Do you dismiss all the nuclear threats, the sponsorship of international terror, the dark age rule the world Islamist mentality, and the outright theft and hypocrisy of their inane leadership from this article? Is it your thought there are not folk of good intent with any perspective but your own?
The majority of the Arab world supports Trump here, as well as many Persians, and that civilization none want to destroy other than the dark age Islamist. Trump has been quite specific in his praise of the Persian civilization.
Lisa, have you ever checked out https://www.prometheanaction.com/ ? They give the details on WHY DJT is doing things the way he is. They also do live explanations on utube. Please check them out when you have a moment. With Trump, it is important to watch what he does, not what he says. A great deal of his rhetoric is to stir up the progressives to react and let them make mistakes.
In these terms, "Centrists" being more Jewish and aligned with Israeli lobby donors and status quo, and the varied ethnic Christianish-secularists who are part of this bloc. "Progressives" being the Agitated street tool-Antifa & BLM-Minority "populist-Commie-Dem. Socialists (Mamdani) who want more clout and substantive power who are chafing under the existing operating system.
The abrasive and vocal guys like Newsome are trying to straddle the fence and piss off both sides. Guys like Bennett, Polis, Mike Johnston in Colorado are far superior in demeanor, and running their crooked dealings efficiently while amassing power in my state.
Staying in joy as much as possible. This is important folks. The world is splitting into 2 realities. (Not sure how this will work, but I don't need to know that right now if I trust the Lord.)
If you want to live in the higher expression of life, living in joy and hope and gratitude is the way to get there. There is a law in the Universe: Like attracts Like. If you choose to live in Joy, (expansive) then life will give you more joy, flow, etc. If you choose to live in fear, doubt, anger (constriction) then life will give you battles to fight and keep you there.
Every day choose joy, gratitude. Even for a few minutes. Set yourself up for success in a joyful life.
I like your comment. I would say the world has always been split into two choices... the world view, "I am a power unto myself, or the spiritual recognition of true happiness, as a child of the Divine. Consider a study on happiness...
"If all the radical statist indefatigable efforts to control society were instead directed to social studies which specifically teach free choice behavior that can be universally shown to engender happiness, such as the common religious ideal “life should be chiefly service” and the principles of eternal virtue, (called the ten commandments in the West, and Satama Dharma, or eternal principles of righteousness, in the East) only then will any earthly utopia be gained. With instant communication of need and rapid commerce, charity driven real help could be rapidly delivered where needed all over. This is far more efficient than government, (where the effect is often the polar opposite of the stated intent) and far more liberating for those that engage in such work."
This understanding of true and universal happiness engendering actions and psychology is no small matter, and is so deeply missing in modern social science that failure is inevitable and all systems are doomed. Instead of wisdom, we have flawed people utterly lacking introspection, expensively taught to perceive themselves as elite and teaching others to perceive themselves as victims. These elite seek forced divisive based restitution rooted in confrontation with those innocent yet presumed guilty, often simply because of their color. And, in submission to their own demonstrated to be misery generating unwise personal desires, they often also spread their misery to all social structures, demanding to control every aspect of society and culture. The "March through the Institutions" is real.
Comprehensive studies on universal happiness (actions and attitudes that always eventually produce happiness) vs pleasure, (defined here as temporary capricious desires that only lead to temporary happiness, and often for that individual simply due to the fact that any desired satisfied temporarily removes a restless want from the undisciplined heart, or base desires that if catered to promise temporary happiness but instead enslave, produce misery and destroy happiness) is NECESSARY for society to survive and prosper. (“Arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness.” ~~George Washington)
If we could just get our elections restored to one day, on paper, hand counted at small precincts, results delivered by couriers with police escort, gerrymandering would be obsolete. It's why rinos and dems in the uniparty senate (and likely with their french wineries paid by us) will have nothing to do with restoring elections. Their s_Elections keep them in power. Maybe change their name to IRGC?
If anyone has TikTok, Temu as "running apps" on their phones, get rid of them and Shein, too.
The Chinese are giving themselves complete permissions to everything on our phones through their apps.
It's so crazy that, in the dark luciferian system that is held together through bloodlines, oaths, promises, masonic degrees, pedigrees and contracts, of all of them around the world, it is the Chinese Royal Families that still hold a candle for humanity. They are the minority and hunted but they still hold to the original, God ordained mandates FOR humanity, speaking of irony.
This is why in March 2026, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), under the direction of the Trump administration, initiated a sweeping ban on the importation and sale of new foreign-made consumer-grade Wi-Fi routers, as well as some other connected devices. This action is aimed at reducing reliance on foreign technology—particularly from China—and mitigating national security risks, such as cyber espionage and supply chain vulnerabilities.
Not just routers, but your iphones or android devices made overseas DO have backdoors. Now, most of us do not deal with government data ect to be exploited, but the dangers are still there and could interfere with Alerts & gov warnings etc.
How much of a shock would it be to wake up & find the FBI combing through your stuff because a backdoor in your device made contact with a secure facility or data?
"Chinese Royal families"? They gave up all power in 1912. The descendants of the last imperial family (Aisin-Gioro) live as private citizens, they hold no political power, titles, or royal privileges.
Newsom just got done pretty much finishing off Republican House representation with his recent gerrymandering action. Out of the current 52 House reps from CA, Republicans will likely be lowered from 12 to just 4. My own district got changed to incorporate a big Democrat area far away and we are losing our thus far excellent rep KevinKiley. Most likely a Democrat like the detestable Trump hater Ami Bera will now win Kiiley's seat. It's sickening.
The CA multi-party jungle primary is in June, and there are something like 61 candidates for Governor, most of which are Dems or assorted oddball parties like Peace and Freedom, etc. The tiny bright light is that within the jungle is that two Republicans are leading and it's conceivable the top two candidates in the election could actually be Republicans. If so, the Dems' jungle primary technique will have backfired on them for once. The downside is that with a Republican governor, he could theoretically veto all the crazy Democrat bills coming out of the legislature. But then with their supermajority, the Dems could then override the veto. California is so so lost.
Like Thune! Thune said at a meeting the other day, he will not allow a vote on the save act, never mind do away with the filibuster. The ironic thing is if the dems take over the senate the first thing they will do is eliminate the filibuster and then make it impossible for the republicans to ever get back in power. Thune don’t care, he’ll still get his steaks smothered in lobsters, 1000 dollar bottles of wine, and all the expensive scotch you can drink.
Meanwhile, the DOJ has requested the states’ voter rolls. Any illegitimate voters on those rolls will not be mailed a ballot since the executive branch controls the post office.
Some states are suing to avoid turning over the rolls.
Also, please allow me to say, I'm glad today's posting mentions that our country's "system" is not a democracy; indeed, our country's system is a representative republic.
It's annoying to constantly read about how "our democracy is being threatened" and all the other BS that gets written relevant to our "country's democracy."
Let's call it what it truly is: A Constitutional and Representative Republic.
I'm still waiting for Hakeem "Finocchio" Jeffries to threaten one of the many spec ops vets who populate the GOP bench in Congress; Markwayne Mullin is also a good choice, based on his response to that Teamster fella who called him out to the yard.
It really shows how far the D’s have fallen that this “man” is their minority leader. He is an unserious leader but his rhetoric keeps ratcheting upward… another sign of desperation that requires playing to their radical base.
“Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.” — Jesus, Matthew 7:6
But a natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. — 1 Corinthians 2:14
Which is why inviting the Holy Spirit to live within us is everything. He is the discernment that we need but do not have on our own. He is our Helper.
Once the Holy Spirit enters your life like He raised Jesus from the dead you'll know it! 🙌🏼 There no other work required. Not perfected but humbled to see His way is The Way. God IS The Sovereign LORD. 🙌🏼 Serve Him with gladness.
I can't like this one Janice. I have had discussions with God on this one. I wish He would stop picking on dogs and pigs. Both are so affable and loving. And look at all dogs do for us; search and rescue, police dogs, dogs for the disabled, beloved pets, dogs that can sniff out cancer in people before clinical signs are noted. And piggies, how can God not smile when He sees the Wilburs of the world basking in the sun with a huge smiles on their faces and then taking a dip while frolicking in a mud bath. Heavy sigh.
Cultural reference to the Jewish law, as well as a symbolic reference to those who are vicious and unrighteous. It’s nothing personal on God’s part against the animals He created.
Do not give what is holy to dogs doesn’t degrade dogs in my mind. Dogs deserve benevolence and providence that is appropriate for their intelligence and nature. That includes love, affection, care and discipline for our beloved pets. It wouldn’t include things that are holy to God which would be far beyond their ability to comprehend and show reverence for. The same for swine. The literal example of tossing pearls in front of pigs creates images of pigs greedily gobbling up something beautiful with no ability to understand or appreciate what they just consumed. Toss them some yummy table scraps? Absolutely! Pearls of wisdom and beauty? Nooo.
Dogs have been my salvation for as long as I can remember. I cannot image my life without them. I've had (10) dogs over the years & most of the time it has been a multi-dog household. I've also had (3) loving cats. I currently have (2) dogs who are my steadfast companions.
My dog is great (except when he isn't). Then there's the butt licking, seems like politicians emulate dogs by faking loyalty and service, getting into the trash, eating whatever they want (that isn't theirs to eat) whenever they can, and butt-licking.
I suspect God loves dogs and pigs even more than we do, but He understands their inherent behavioral natures, and He also knows their genomics and doesn’t want His imagers to eat them.
I think the reason God established dietary laws is because there is DNA in everything we eat, and our bodies assimilate that DNA. He only wants His imagers to eat the cleanest foods (fruits, vegetables and ruminants) so our bodies have the best chance of staying healthy. Pigs are known as opportunistic omnivores who will eat literally anything you give them, including dead rotting animal carcasses. And farming them in clean conditions with quality feed still doesn’t change the fact that, as a species, they have inherited the DNA of their ancestors, which our bodies assimilate when we eat them. Recent studies have found that DNA in food can migrate into our own DNA: https://www.nature.com/articles/cr2011158
While I absolutely believe the Word is alive and active and applicable to us today - if we only look at it through our Western, American lens, we truly miss half the intent.
It's very, very, VERY important to also read the Bible through the lens of the original audience, to gain a full understanding.
I have found chat gpt to be a surprisingly excellent resource to help clarify. Here's a link to my request for "how did the original audience understand Matt 7:6" - it's enlightening (and accurate, from the studies I've been doing)
The original audience were not the sharpest or dedicated tools in the box. Just finished reading the OT and every other chapter is them betraying God, worshipping other gods, not listening to instructions by leaders like Moses and constantly complaining all the time. They don't impress me much. I don't know how God put up with them quite frankly. What hemorrhoids they were. Thank you for the link nonetheless.
The exact same thing could be said of us today. The human heart is selfish and self centered. How often do we each still turn away from God, with our words or our thoughts? None of us measures up, none of us - not on our own. That's why we ALL need Jesus, every one of us.
And how did God put up with them? The same way He puts up with us. We are His children, and with all our flaws and failures, He loves us. And that's also why He sent Jesus, as the full redemption and payment for our sins and to pay the price that we could not.
That's the honest way to look at the OT and compare it to ourselves today — with humility, knowing that we do the same thing as they did, just with different idols.
You might call it "Janice's book-sale PR tactic and Virtue-signaling". She does it daily. And on this site it is free. So as long as no one stops her, she keeps it up. While her little Holy Poseur minions rush in to upvote her. Because she is pushing THEIR narrative too.
In other words, Janice seems to be familiar with Holy Poseur-ism. Ahem.... A great Evangelical tradition.
Sometimes when I read about the IRGC, I start to see the Democrat Party and the deep state come into focus. We read about them and at first it’s an ugly, grainy, static-filled picture of an evil terrorist regime who kill their own people to keep them in line. Then it comes into focus and lines up neatly with the corrupt in our own government. I mean this sounds exactly like the democrats: “…is a parasitic mega-corporation that has co-opted the elected government of Iran, and uses the apparatus of state to suck blood and treasure out of the Iranian people, all to enrich a secretive class of demented hypocrites who cosplay … but are really violent mobsters with missiles and an army….a kleptocracy.”
No wonder they try to make everyone see Trump that way. The picture of them is coming too much into focus.
Did we learn from them? Or did they learn from us?
I think you are spot on with your analysis Juju. Well done. Obama and his corrupt CIA were probably primary trainers and the rotten to the core Brits and their bank of london and MI6 for decades more.
When I read that sentence in Jeff's stack this morning I thought, "I've gotta copy that and save it somewhere." It's a great description of the IRGC (and the democrats).
I thought it didn't sound much different that what our own government has done for years with their CIA backed color revolutions. They may or may not have secret bank accounts and villas in the UK and France, but they certainly have co-opted the elected government of the United States, and uses the apparatus of state to suck blood and treasure out of the American people, all to enrich a secretive class of demented hypocrites who cosplay as political leaders and bureaucrats but are really violent mobsters using our missiles and armies.
“The elected government of Iran”, surely you are being facetious. “Elected” is an inappropriate term for an entity that slaughters thousands of people.
Last, on the “Supreme Court Strikes Down Louisiana Map, Another Blow to Voting Rights Act.” This FALSE. They did not strike down anything other than that race-based gerrymandering is unconstitutional.
MLK dreamed of a country where people are judged NOT by the color of their skin. Drawing congressional districts by the color of voters' skin is the OPPOSITE of that dream. The Supreme Court got it right. The fact is, we marched for liberty and fairness. MLK did NOT march for segregation
If you think about it they were disenfranchising black voters way more than protecting them. What happens to all the black votes in those other legitimate districts that would have wanted representation from that district’s candidate but were trapped inside a “blacks only” district with a candidate that doesn’t speak for them? It robs them of their voice. Just because they are black does not mean they all share the same beliefs/values/politics. That treats them like collective animals without independent thought.
You are right. And it was just another deeply nefarious way to keep us all divided and keep Black Americans in their box with just enough gravy. Think about it.
PS: It is perfectly legal to gerrymander according to political advantage; this has happened since the inception of the country. But it's not legal to do so by race.
California is about as gerrymandered as a state can be. It is not in the least by influenced race, but rather, by Democrat voter presence no matter what the race. They just drew new lines to overwhelm Republican presence in certain red areas.
I've noticed how everyone in the press and also Republicans in the press all seem to ignore Calirornia, probably because they have just written it off. It belongs to the Democrats top to bottom. Even before national elections, everyone knows how it will go and that CA electors, for example, will always be Democrat. You barely even need to count the votes it's so saturated with Dems. BUT....it's instructional to look at how things have ended up in CA while nobody was looking, because that is what the Dems want to achieve in every single state if possible. So pay attention.
Also, as commentators discuss current gas prices, they virtually NEVER highlight California's ridiculous gas prices, which are a couple of dollars more per gallon than anywhere else. What on earth don't they hammer this fact home to the whole country? They give "average" gas prices around the country, but omit Newsom's California prices. The prices here are due to a variety of crazy environmental policies implemented by Dems and crazy environmental lunatics in this state. But if they get more and more control in other states, guess what will happen to YOUR gas prices?
California's Demonic Party may pay for their gerrymander. The problem with the new lines is that the new districts voters draw closer to 50/50. Any surprise, such as extremely high gas prices in CA, could cause a swing against the gerrymander.
Yes, political-ideological Districting may be even worse with the rise of Violence-prone Entitlement-Progressivism emanating from Commie-run Public Schools and Socialist Media platforms. Gentrification of minority enclaves (ghettos) by educated white folks with money is also heavily swaying the delineations of Districting as has Immigrant Invasion and resettlement planning. This SCOTUS ruling will not be a cure to this problem! Also Republicans as a party and as voters lean heavily to govt services and public-private programs as well so the problem grows in scope over time and area to swallow up the entire nation.
Agreed. I often refer to myself as a culturist, not a racist. If you truly love God and do your best to abide by His moral code, you’ll be my BFF. But if you abide by a satanic culture of murder, violence, abuse, lying, stealing, cheating, et al, you will never have my sympathy and I will fight against you and your Father of Lies.
Race-based apportionment for Districting is akin to application of apartheid and principles of Balkanization rather than a Constitutional Republic with Liberty and Justice for All.
After the SCOTUS ruling the only thing Republicans need to do, at this point, to turn this country around after the damage the most racist and vile president ever(Obama) to occupy the white house did to this country is......wait for it....
When someone claims that I have offended them, with some totally innocent remark (as they often do), I turn around and claim that THEY have offended ME by THAT remark.
They usually turn and leave, with a blank face. Because it never occurred to them that this can work both ways, if that is the con-game they insist on playing.
My husband has said a few times to such people, "I am offended that you are offended." They don't know what to make of that comment, and it's amusing to watch.
The sad thing is the whole thought of "you can't be racist if you're not white", which is the prevailing mindset of the people who try to pull the race card. :(
The irony is that the SPLC claims to be an anti-hate group, yet they hate any one or any group that doesn’t align with their ideology, e.g. MAGA, pro-lifers, those against mutilation of children, etc.
Well, be careful. Because the religious extremists can be as bad as the leftwing WOKE. Polar extremes on the Psychological spectrum (described by Freud) are the same as one another, except for their narratives. Psychologically, they are the same types.
And when they go too far in their extremism (either type), they often flip into evil. Jung gave this the name of Enantiodromia.
You see this in 2026 with the far-leftwing WOKE/Democrats flipping into acceptance of political violence. We saw this on the far-rightwing in 1692 in Salem, when the Puritans considered themselves so righteous and godly, they flipped into Witch Hunts.
The World Order sets up countless groups to promote any type of idea, and then sets up other groups to fanatically oppose them, but the masters have no dedication to anything except slavery." The World Order Eustace Mullins 1992
Really. After long reserving judgment (and avoiding it myself) I now believe the worst stories about fluoride in the water. Can't account for it another other way. Dumbing down the schools and dumbing down the students goes hand in hand.
They are a rare breed but some are triggered enough to try to understand why their world is crashing down. This happened to me when Trump won the first time around.
I think that word has lost a lot of meaning since it got thrown at everything and anything. If everything is racist, nothing is. Or as others have started saying "your race card has been declined".
“ Suppose we discovered that all our top Pentagon officials had secret overseas bank accounts stuffed with millions, villas in the South of France, and so on.”
And what makes you think they don’t?! Many of them certainly seem to have the equivalent! Looking at you, Nancy Piglosi!
Pelosisaurys is in the deeply corrupt congress, not the Pentagon. Thankfully we have Hegseth and his cleaning shop in DOW and I promise if there is one general officer or worse the deeply rotten, corrupt, highly left biased SES (corps) we will know about it.
DOGE looked into Pentagon spending? Did they get a look at black ops spending, which is probably an endless pit of money? Part of the problem with the pentagon is that Congress hands them unlimited increases in spending. They never seem to say, "you've got enough."
All these politiians and especially presidents leave office VERY comfortable. Look at Obama's two homes, one on coastal Hawai and another at Martha's Vineyard. (apparently not worried about sea level rise due to the alleged climate change he and Biden created so many policies about).
I’m sure Pete Hegseth is raking in profits from the war. Nancy certainly wasn’t and isn’t the only one playing this game. She’s not even the best, Kushner is in a different universe.
I'm a black Republican who currently represents a majority-white district in the Ohio State House and is running to represent a majority-white district in Congress.
The idea that black Americans need special districts carved out just for them is complete nonsense. It's a violation of the law and blatantly unconstitutional.
I cannot say enough good things about Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Like Trump he is doing monumentally important work for all of us and Jeff's description of his efforts against the criminal terrorist irgc is one small example.
100% with you Dan! Secretary Bessent does not waste words nor suffer fools and his humor just slays me. He is also possibly the sharpest pencil in the administration’s drawer. I would love to be a fly on the wall when he and DJT riff on their low IQ opponents and spitball new strategies. His congressional testimonies - well “That’s gold, Jerry! Gold!” (hat tip to Kenny Bania - Seinfeld)
Love it. Absolutely love it. He can pound on anyone he wants as far as I am concerned. Bessent is a true genius. With a wicked sense of humor. Trump recognized this and turned him loose. We are all benefitting.
Doesn't the asset forfeiture and seizure go back to the EO 13818 from 2017? All according to plan. What has been seized over the years that we don't know about? Probably enough to completely cancel the "national debt", and end the Federal Reserve permanently.
The Iranian people, who are by and large NOT evil, will need those funds to rebuild, especially if we have to do the power and bridges thing. And if the wells go kaput, it will get exponentially worse for them.
If the people prefer to stay with being called Iranians, then that is their choice. I simply make the point that Iran is being freed from the muslim regime.
I'll go against the grain here and say that I don't like the idea of asset seizure at all. Besides blowing the claims about how "private" and "safe" crypto is, it makes me think about how the Patriot Act was once used for preventing terrorism before it was used against its own citizens. I fear that in the future our government, especially as some Democrats are now socialists, will seize assets from citizens who don't go along with The Narrative.
There is so much happening behind the scenes. And all the pomp and circumstance of the UK King Charles visiting and making his presence known is more about him trying to regain some sort of control over the outcome of what Trump is doing than anything. Trump is undoing what has been done by every President back to before Eisenhower. Do you know that it has been noted by historians that Queen Elizabeth for 70 yrs received our intelligence briefings???? We should be outraged! That is until Trump stepped up. He is putting an end to their system of global governance with what is usual and customary. He’s not playing their game. That’s why they’ve tried to kill him 3 times. Don’t think for one second those guys weren’t brainwashed to attempt what they did. They will keep coming for now. Hold onto your hats! It’s gonna get crazier as the midterms approach.
Charles "I want to be Camilla's tampon" is a scumbag. Diana lies in her grave since 1997 after using her as a brood mare and testing her virginity and all the while fiddling with that hag Camilla. They both gross me out and gag me with a spoon.
Jeff, my worry is it's the Republican Party that will be taking over! The Dem Party is the highway to Hell...but the RINO Party is the slower backroad to Hell
So, step 1, get rid of the Dem Party. But step 2 is getting rid of the RINOs and RINO adjacent pols.
And before the Left recovers, take back K-12 education AND all of the colleges and universities to lock in the return to a Constitutional Republic based on a moral citizenry.
Great 'take', GregWA! I have two Republican Senators I call regularly to ask what they are doing to promote the SAVE Act, and get the bill PASSED and IN FORCE before November. Surprise, surprise - - still waiting for answers - -
I remember when I was little coming to the realization that if cancer was cured, the American Cancer Association would be out of business. That principle goes for every other organization raking in profits to “stop” something awful (or in the case of the intellimafia, federal funding to stop terrorism). So it’s no surprise that the hate profiteering smear machine known as the SPLC would fund false flag hate attacks as an ongoing ad campaign.
“Money Laundering for Dummies” made me think of this iconic scene from “Office Space”:
“I can’t believe what a bunch of nerds we are. We’re looking up money laundering in a dictionary.”
Well, Linda -- I am suspicious of Janice and her ploys. She is selling a self-published book, and she uses the Substack PR tactic of rushing to the top of the site every day to place her advertisement first.
It also makes her appear very virtuous to play the Scripture-lady. Even though her only action is to cut and paste from any of the many scripture websites. Nothing actually virtuous about that. But if you don't think about this, you are likely to fall for it. Then her fellow cult members rush in immediately to upvote it many times, so that it remains at the top.
Chicanery under cover of "Christianity" is a very old and well-used ruse.
I have seen a lot of fraud in my time, and I know how the human unconscious responds to particular coded behaviours. I tend to recognize them where I see them,
I suggest the Robert Cialdini books for general readers: "Influence" and "Pre-Suasion" to get a better idea of how the tricks of the trade operate through particular patterns used in the human mind. It's Evolutionary Psychology.
Do your homework, John. Janice Powell's profile is about her book. From which SHE profits, of course.
Don't you understand the difference between suggesting a book title, and profiting on a book you are selling yourself? Do you actually think I profit in any way from suggesting the titles here of books written by others? I am doing readers a favour, actually.
Sheesh! Go back to square one. That was a dumb comment.

Just as Trump laid out in his National Security Strategy which he published 3 months AFTER the summit with Putin in Alaska, he is pulling the empire back to a hemispheric defense by establishing control of the world's chokepoints (such as the Straits of Hormuz, Malacca & Gibraltar) and withdrawing from NATO.
Trump Begins Consolidation of US MIL in Western Hemisphere
Trump JUST spoke to Putin and said things were positive, and now Trump announces they are looking into reducing our standing army in Germany.
Just as I hypothesized, Trump is reducing our military footprint in the Eastern Hemisphere, which will lead to normalized relations with Russia and China, and the end to the war in Ukraine....
I have to add, I grew up in the 50s and 60s. And it still sounds so strange to me to talk about "the empire" and no one bats an eyelash. I started using the term empire to describe the USG in the 70s and people would look at me like I was from Mars. That's how effective Gov't controlled education is at keeping the people brainwashed.
I don't comprehend how trying to control the waters on the other side of the Earth is Trump pulling the US back to our hemisphere. I support getting out of NATO, of course. We should have done that in 1991.
I also don't get how "We meant well" is not a good excuse for the SPLC stealing money from donors, but it's an excellent excuse for the US stealing money from Iran. Maybe that's what happens when you put a Soros employee in charge of the US Treasury.
Firstly, controlling the various straits prevents China from doing us harm. It was brilliant. Secondly, we are not stealing money from Iran; we are holding money stolen from the people of Iran for the people of Iran. Don't be a doomer.
"Both flawed concepts were exposed in Barack Obama’s awful take."
There's a terrific takedown of Obama's awful take in TwiX. It expands upon similar points Jeff made. I'll reprint it below, but it's fairly long, so first I'll give you the link:
"Everyone should unequivocally condemn the government-imposed racial discrimination Obama is pushing!
Obama makes three errors in one post, all of them philosophical.
First, the United States is a constitutional republic, not a democracy. The purpose of the Constitution is to protect individual rights from the majority, not to ensure "equal participation in our democracy." The Founders designed the system specifically to prevent what Obama is demanding: unlimited majority rule.
Second, "protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach" sounds correct until you examine the premise. Rights belong to individuals, not groups. The moment you define rights by racial group membership, you have adopted the same collectivist framework that produced the discrimination you claim to oppose. Jim Crow categorized people by race and assigned rights accordingly. Modern voting rights activism does the same thing with different beneficiaries. Both are collectivism.
Third, gerrymandering is a problem created entirely by the system Obama wants to preserve: a political structure where the drawing of district lines determines outcomes. His solution is not to fix the structure. It is to ensure his side draws the lines.
The government must treat every citizen equally before the law. Everyone should reject Obama's framing entirely. He is not defending individual rights.
He is defending group power, while using the language of rights to make collectivism sound like liberty."
House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries (AKA dollar store Obama) yesterday, doing his best to sound like a thug, threatened Florida governor Ron Desantis for redistricting Florida, allowing the GOP to gain up to 4 House seats. Democrats have gerrymandered the democrat states so much for so long there’s no more meat left on the bone to keep them afloat politically. With yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling the republicans are just getting going finally. Hakeem needs to know you live by the sword you die by the sword. You live by gerrymandering you die by gerrymandering. Love it!!
Facts.
PSA: blacks did not loose the right to vote. Black Democrats lost guaranteef districts. Tim scott can win, in majority white districts, Bryon Donald's too.
This ain't about race.
But "race" is what the Democrats want to make it about... that's what they've ALWAYS made it about... All the way back to Andrew Jackson... the Democratic Party has ALWAYS been the Party of Slavery.
Exactly!
Yep, division, hate, victim-hood, whereas this suprem court decision simply says no discrimination and equal protection under the law for all. No decisions based on race. They long ago abandoned MLK.
Regarding Iran this is a worthy paragraph by Jeff...
"This is the key. We’ve learned that the Iranian Republican Guard Corps (IRGC) is a parasitic mega-corporation that has co-opted the elected government of Iran, and uses the apparatus of state to suck blood and treasure out of the Iranian people, all to enrich a secretive class of demented hypocrites who cosplay as religious maniacs but are really violent mobsters with missiles and an army."
I wish to point out the parasitical fraudulent - rob from the tax payer nature of the Democratic party, so of course the left stream media does not want to highlight this like reflection on their party. Indeed, the radical left gave billions to these dark age thieves.
Prime example of human nature, evident in every culture since the beginning. If a society doesn't work at being good they will good at doing evil. And taking advantage of others. We are living in an era right now where examples are being brought to light and we act surprised.
Thank you Mr. Childers for looking behind the curtain and showing us truth every day.
Well, "They long ago abandoned MLK" isn't a bad thing although I understand your point. MLK was a non-Christian socialist. Look it up. Chad Jackson is an excellent source.
I had similar thoughts
Well said
It's ALWAYS about race: keeping the slave owners in Washington and the slaves living ghettos cheering for them and their slave overseerings: preachers, activists, etc (that comes courtesy of Vince Everett Ellison)
and I've read the Newsome's new districts in Calif. were based primarily on minority majority mapmaking and should be unconstitutional just like LA
Republicans- go get California.
Great point!!
So why sis the supreme court allow california to stay as it is?
Someone has to file a lawsuit. Quickly.
It's up to state legislatures to determine those districts, so, with Dems in control in CA, things may not change.
I was just wondering about California
Hakeem Jeffries is having his "alternative income streams" dry up due to the annihilation of the "system" that he is oathed/promised/pledged to , so he's "hangry" and "madd" and threatening his colleagues, left, right and center.
Me, I'm waiting for the DNC to "select" Hakeem Jeffries as their next POTUS candidate.
There’s a civil war happening within the Dem party between the progressives and the centrists.
Who are the "centrists" in the Dem party? I'm not seeing any except for John Fetterman, who is definitely a Dem, but not as insane as the rest of them.
Who would have thought that Fetterman would even be coherent much less reasonable? Talk about a surprise outcome.
But abortion and other sick alignments. He's not one of us or he'd switch.
Strokes caused by undertested vaccines pushed hard by the government can do that to a person.
I find Fetterman's *resolve* amazing.
Not me!!!
a very PLEASANT surprise outcome, truth be told !
As a Pennsylvanian, I have been pleasantly surprised.
I am not a politician but have considered myself a centrist democrat.
I finally saw the fallacy of that & quit the party.
I have always voted for the person I determined qualified, never simply based on party.
Have I made mistakes? Absolutely
I was a moderate Democrat for 50+ years so I could vote in the primaries. I sometimes voted independent. What happened in 2020 with the election and covid, blew my mind. WTF. I could not believe what was happening. I switched. I'm following RFK and glad the Trump took him on. I'm thankful. (I've also been an RN for over 50 years :) )
Dr. Linda, I too was a "liberal" to "centrist" Democrat for over 30 years until just enough Democrats decided to join little Georgie Bush and give him his Shock and Awe war in Iraq. That, was my breaking point.
In 2003 I was 52 and had been growing a little more conservative each and every year. Unless one's head is firmly up their butt preventing them from seeing the reality of the changing world around us, it's not hard to see how a political party becomes corrupted by it's leaders. I really dislike calling them "leaders" as they are not so much leading as "corralling" their followers like cattle headed for slaughter.
We've all made mistakes, however, some of us learned from those mistakes.
I remember when a older friend told me to vote red all down the ballot. I said no! I voted for the individual as well. I thought I knew what was doing reading the voter pamphlet 🤣🤣🤣 what a joke! I kick myself for being naive back then. Oh how I have woken up since 2020
Its the willingness to change in the face of better evidence quality,
and a perfect example.
Progressives see EVERYONE else in their party at centrists. Anyone who doesn’t pass the purity spiral test is a centrist in their eyes. If they move right on a single issue they are against them. The Dems could go centrist with someone like Rahm Emanuel but the progressives won’t allow it.
Progressives = fanatics
Oh God help us! Rahm Emanuel would be a nightmare
He is one of Obama's boyfriends. And if they put him in, and he wins, what we have is Obama's fourth term. And trust me this time Obama will not fail. The reason the left is so pissed off at Trump is all of their plans went in the toilet when Trump stepped up the second time.
He figured out what he was dealing with and that's why we're having so many amazing wins! The left / Bolsheviks/communist/"liberals" have a long game they are playing. This is for all the marbles.
It's the evil combination of Marxism and Islam. That's who Obama is. Fortunately at the end of the day both of those ideologies have different endings in mind. But they're both too stupid to understand using the other one is going to hurt them in the long run. Meanwhile we will suffer if they win.
Fetterman has been 'replaced', no longer the "original" and the WH has figured out how to use this to their advantage, along with the Obamatized legalization of the "false flag" for purposes of "national security". The only thing holding up the "peace" for Iran are the oathed/pledged/promised/masonic degreed/pedigreed that are spouting lies from every news outlet they own.
Fetterman replaced?? Sounds rather conspiracy like. And the Iran war is all for Israel? Lisa, I think you are emotionally wrong on every assertion. Iranian Threats to international trade number in the dozens across 40+ years (routinely tied to sanctions or conflicts), with periodic harassment/attacks (e.g., Tanker War, 2019 incidents, Red Sea 2023+). These actions aim for deterrence/leverage but risk escalation and economic backlash (oil price spikes, rerouting). Exact "count" varies by definition (verbal threat vs. attack vs. sustained blockade), as rhetoric is frequent. Yet here have been at least a 1/2 dozen real attempts.
The slaughter of tens of thousands of innocent civilians, far more over the decades. "Do you dismiss all the nuclear threats, the sponsorship of international terror, the dark age rule the world Islamist mentality, and the outright theft and hypocrisy of their inane leadership from this article? Is it your thought there are not folk of good intent with any perspective but your own?
The majority of the Arab world supports Trump here, as well as many Persians, and that civilization none want to destroy other than the dark age Islamist. Trump has been quite specific in his praise of the Persian civilization.
Lisa, have you ever checked out https://www.prometheanaction.com/ ? They give the details on WHY DJT is doing things the way he is. They also do live explanations on utube. Please check them out when you have a moment. With Trump, it is important to watch what he does, not what he says. A great deal of his rhetoric is to stir up the progressives to react and let them make mistakes.
Hope you have a great day!
Exactly even the centrists on the left know they’re on a short leash and don’t have control
In these terms, "Centrists" being more Jewish and aligned with Israeli lobby donors and status quo, and the varied ethnic Christianish-secularists who are part of this bloc. "Progressives" being the Agitated street tool-Antifa & BLM-Minority "populist-Commie-Dem. Socialists (Mamdani) who want more clout and substantive power who are chafing under the existing operating system.
The abrasive and vocal guys like Newsome are trying to straddle the fence and piss off both sides. Guys like Bennett, Polis, Mike Johnston in Colorado are far superior in demeanor, and running their crooked dealings efficiently while amassing power in my state.
The rabbits on Viagra cracked me up!😂😂
Do you wait with joy and glee or concern and consternation?
That is a great question and an important one.
Staying in joy as much as possible. This is important folks. The world is splitting into 2 realities. (Not sure how this will work, but I don't need to know that right now if I trust the Lord.)
If you want to live in the higher expression of life, living in joy and hope and gratitude is the way to get there. There is a law in the Universe: Like attracts Like. If you choose to live in Joy, (expansive) then life will give you more joy, flow, etc. If you choose to live in fear, doubt, anger (constriction) then life will give you battles to fight and keep you there.
Every day choose joy, gratitude. Even for a few minutes. Set yourself up for success in a joyful life.
I like your comment. I would say the world has always been split into two choices... the world view, "I am a power unto myself, or the spiritual recognition of true happiness, as a child of the Divine. Consider a study on happiness...
"If all the radical statist indefatigable efforts to control society were instead directed to social studies which specifically teach free choice behavior that can be universally shown to engender happiness, such as the common religious ideal “life should be chiefly service” and the principles of eternal virtue, (called the ten commandments in the West, and Satama Dharma, or eternal principles of righteousness, in the East) only then will any earthly utopia be gained. With instant communication of need and rapid commerce, charity driven real help could be rapidly delivered where needed all over. This is far more efficient than government, (where the effect is often the polar opposite of the stated intent) and far more liberating for those that engage in such work."
This understanding of true and universal happiness engendering actions and psychology is no small matter, and is so deeply missing in modern social science that failure is inevitable and all systems are doomed. Instead of wisdom, we have flawed people utterly lacking introspection, expensively taught to perceive themselves as elite and teaching others to perceive themselves as victims. These elite seek forced divisive based restitution rooted in confrontation with those innocent yet presumed guilty, often simply because of their color. And, in submission to their own demonstrated to be misery generating unwise personal desires, they often also spread their misery to all social structures, demanding to control every aspect of society and culture. The "March through the Institutions" is real.
Comprehensive studies on universal happiness (actions and attitudes that always eventually produce happiness) vs pleasure, (defined here as temporary capricious desires that only lead to temporary happiness, and often for that individual simply due to the fact that any desired satisfied temporarily removes a restless want from the undisciplined heart, or base desires that if catered to promise temporary happiness but instead enslave, produce misery and destroy happiness) is NECESSARY for society to survive and prosper. (“Arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness.” ~~George Washington)

Fabulous advice. Thank you.

No, he’s too useful to them as their resident local idiot spokesman in the house. At least it’s for now.
Him and Spartakus are both hopeful.
🎯🎯🎯
Maybe he's got KURU...the original "Hillary" started going bonkers like this, at first, too.
Exactly! But all this screaming and rage is permission to their crazies for another assassination attempt.
Head on a swivel....
If we could just get our elections restored to one day, on paper, hand counted at small precincts, results delivered by couriers with police escort, gerrymandering would be obsolete. It's why rinos and dems in the uniparty senate (and likely with their french wineries paid by us) will have nothing to do with restoring elections. Their s_Elections keep them in power. Maybe change their name to IRGC?
Irony is on today's menu, and it is truly delicious!
Served up with pure delight and a few loud "Hallelujahs!"
Yummy. With a big side of schadenfreude.
I personally like Temu Obama for Jeffries 😆
If anyone has TikTok, Temu as "running apps" on their phones, get rid of them and Shein, too.
The Chinese are giving themselves complete permissions to everything on our phones through their apps.
It's so crazy that, in the dark luciferian system that is held together through bloodlines, oaths, promises, masonic degrees, pedigrees and contracts, of all of them around the world, it is the Chinese Royal Families that still hold a candle for humanity. They are the minority and hunted but they still hold to the original, God ordained mandates FOR humanity, speaking of irony.
I try not to click on any links from tic tok, I don't care for any chinese's own anything.
Yeah, it's the Apps on your phone that get ya.
Yeah I don’t have any of those. I also don’t like buying from places who have been proven to use slave labor.
This is why in March 2026, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), under the direction of the Trump administration, initiated a sweeping ban on the importation and sale of new foreign-made consumer-grade Wi-Fi routers, as well as some other connected devices. This action is aimed at reducing reliance on foreign technology—particularly from China—and mitigating national security risks, such as cyber espionage and supply chain vulnerabilities.
Not just routers, but your iphones or android devices made overseas DO have backdoors. Now, most of us do not deal with government data ect to be exploited, but the dangers are still there and could interfere with Alerts & gov warnings etc.
How much of a shock would it be to wake up & find the FBI combing through your stuff because a backdoor in your device made contact with a secure facility or data?
"Chinese Royal families"? They gave up all power in 1912. The descendants of the last imperial family (Aisin-Gioro) live as private citizens, they hold no political power, titles, or royal privileges.
😂
Newsom just got done pretty much finishing off Republican House representation with his recent gerrymandering action. Out of the current 52 House reps from CA, Republicans will likely be lowered from 12 to just 4. My own district got changed to incorporate a big Democrat area far away and we are losing our thus far excellent rep KevinKiley. Most likely a Democrat like the detestable Trump hater Ami Bera will now win Kiiley's seat. It's sickening.
The CA multi-party jungle primary is in June, and there are something like 61 candidates for Governor, most of which are Dems or assorted oddball parties like Peace and Freedom, etc. The tiny bright light is that within the jungle is that two Republicans are leading and it's conceivable the top two candidates in the election could actually be Republicans. If so, the Dems' jungle primary technique will have backfired on them for once. The downside is that with a Republican governor, he could theoretically veto all the crazy Democrat bills coming out of the legislature. But then with their supermajority, the Dems could then override the veto. California is so so lost.
Join the great exodus of CA.
Certainly Dems have a plot to deal with the R candidates
Look out for the fake Republicans!
Like Thune! Thune said at a meeting the other day, he will not allow a vote on the save act, never mind do away with the filibuster. The ironic thing is if the dems take over the senate the first thing they will do is eliminate the filibuster and then make it impossible for the republicans to ever get back in power. Thune don’t care, he’ll still get his steaks smothered in lobsters, 1000 dollar bottles of wine, and all the expensive scotch you can drink.
Thune is a traitor!
Meanwhile, the DOJ has requested the states’ voter rolls. Any illegitimate voters on those rolls will not be mailed a ballot since the executive branch controls the post office.
Some states are suing to avoid turning over the rolls.
So the game is afoot!
Jovan Pulitzer has much to say about this.
Great comment.
Also, please allow me to say, I'm glad today's posting mentions that our country's "system" is not a democracy; indeed, our country's system is a representative republic.
It's annoying to constantly read about how "our democracy is being threatened" and all the other BS that gets written relevant to our "country's democracy."
Let's call it what it truly is: A Constitutional and Representative Republic.
"Hakeem Jeffries (AKA dollar store Obama)"... LingOL!!!!!! THAT'S Funny... and I'm stealing it!!! LingOL!!!!!
I'm still waiting for Hakeem "Finocchio" Jeffries to threaten one of the many spec ops vets who populate the GOP bench in Congress; Markwayne Mullin is also a good choice, based on his response to that Teamster fella who called him out to the yard.
Maybe now Virginia (and the rest of the country) will learn what " restoring fairness in upcoming elections " TRULY means....
“Dollar store Obama” 😅
It really shows how far the D’s have fallen that this “man” is their minority leader. He is an unserious leader but his rhetoric keeps ratcheting upward… another sign of desperation that requires playing to their radical base.

“Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.” — Jesus, Matthew 7:6
But a natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. — 1 Corinthians 2:14
(NAS95)
✝️✝️✝️
Which is why inviting the Holy Spirit to live within us is everything. He is the discernment that we need but do not have on our own. He is our Helper.
Once the Holy Spirit enters your life like He raised Jesus from the dead you'll know it! 🙌🏼 There no other work required. Not perfected but humbled to see His way is The Way. God IS The Sovereign LORD. 🙌🏼 Serve Him with gladness.
"Humbled." That is key. People today (well, I guess in every era) think they know better than God.
I literally just wrote about logic and discernment yesterday too! My background though was on staying sharp in a world that’s getting more technologically, but there’s a correlation here: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/if-you-want-to-keep-your-mind-sharp
AMEN!
Excellent advice for this crazy time we are living in! Thank the Lord for giving us His Word and preserving it all these centuries.
I can't like this one Janice. I have had discussions with God on this one. I wish He would stop picking on dogs and pigs. Both are so affable and loving. And look at all dogs do for us; search and rescue, police dogs, dogs for the disabled, beloved pets, dogs that can sniff out cancer in people before clinical signs are noted. And piggies, how can God not smile when He sees the Wilburs of the world basking in the sun with a huge smiles on their faces and then taking a dip while frolicking in a mud bath. Heavy sigh.
Cultural reference to the Jewish law, as well as a symbolic reference to those who are vicious and unrighteous. It’s nothing personal on God’s part against the animals He created.
I wish He would have used different examples:[
Do not give what is holy to dogs doesn’t degrade dogs in my mind. Dogs deserve benevolence and providence that is appropriate for their intelligence and nature. That includes love, affection, care and discipline for our beloved pets. It wouldn’t include things that are holy to God which would be far beyond their ability to comprehend and show reverence for. The same for swine. The literal example of tossing pearls in front of pigs creates images of pigs greedily gobbling up something beautiful with no ability to understand or appreciate what they just consumed. Toss them some yummy table scraps? Absolutely! Pearls of wisdom and beauty? Nooo.
And hogs have more intelligence than your average Democrat.
And they taste good
Agreed.
Dogs have been my salvation for as long as I can remember. I cannot image my life without them. I've had (10) dogs over the years & most of the time it has been a multi-dog household. I've also had (3) loving cats. I currently have (2) dogs who are my steadfast companions.
My dog is great (except when he isn't). Then there's the butt licking, seems like politicians emulate dogs by faking loyalty and service, getting into the trash, eating whatever they want (that isn't theirs to eat) whenever they can, and butt-licking.
I suspect God loves dogs and pigs even more than we do, but He understands their inherent behavioral natures, and He also knows their genomics and doesn’t want His imagers to eat them.
I would never eat a dog.... but pig is my favorite! 😜
I think the reason God established dietary laws is because there is DNA in everything we eat, and our bodies assimilate that DNA. He only wants His imagers to eat the cleanest foods (fruits, vegetables and ruminants) so our bodies have the best chance of staying healthy. Pigs are known as opportunistic omnivores who will eat literally anything you give them, including dead rotting animal carcasses. And farming them in clean conditions with quality feed still doesn’t change the fact that, as a species, they have inherited the DNA of their ancestors, which our bodies assimilate when we eat them. Recent studies have found that DNA in food can migrate into our own DNA: https://www.nature.com/articles/cr2011158
While I absolutely believe the Word is alive and active and applicable to us today - if we only look at it through our Western, American lens, we truly miss half the intent.
It's very, very, VERY important to also read the Bible through the lens of the original audience, to gain a full understanding.
I have found chat gpt to be a surprisingly excellent resource to help clarify. Here's a link to my request for "how did the original audience understand Matt 7:6" - it's enlightening (and accurate, from the studies I've been doing)
https://chatgpt.com/share/69f37b20-0728-83ea-9d30-62abc0ca53f8
The original audience were not the sharpest or dedicated tools in the box. Just finished reading the OT and every other chapter is them betraying God, worshipping other gods, not listening to instructions by leaders like Moses and constantly complaining all the time. They don't impress me much. I don't know how God put up with them quite frankly. What hemorrhoids they were. Thank you for the link nonetheless.
The exact same thing could be said of us today. The human heart is selfish and self centered. How often do we each still turn away from God, with our words or our thoughts? None of us measures up, none of us - not on our own. That's why we ALL need Jesus, every one of us.
And how did God put up with them? The same way He puts up with us. We are His children, and with all our flaws and failures, He loves us. And that's also why He sent Jesus, as the full redemption and payment for our sins and to pay the price that we could not.
That's the honest way to look at the OT and compare it to ourselves today — with humility, knowing that we do the same thing as they did, just with different idols.
They were much worse especially being His chosen people. And they mock and shun Jesus. Two words for that and it ain't Happy Birthday.
Or use gotquestions.org
I guess because he made them he knows them.
Are you saying dogs and pigs are no good?
Amen 🙏
I totally agree yet what in this substack post is this commenting on? Oh it’s not
You might call it "Janice's book-sale PR tactic and Virtue-signaling". She does it daily. And on this site it is free. So as long as no one stops her, she keeps it up. While her little Holy Poseur minions rush in to upvote her. Because she is pushing THEIR narrative too.
In other words, Janice seems to be familiar with Holy Poseur-ism. Ahem.... A great Evangelical tradition.
Sometimes when I read about the IRGC, I start to see the Democrat Party and the deep state come into focus. We read about them and at first it’s an ugly, grainy, static-filled picture of an evil terrorist regime who kill their own people to keep them in line. Then it comes into focus and lines up neatly with the corrupt in our own government. I mean this sounds exactly like the democrats: “…is a parasitic mega-corporation that has co-opted the elected government of Iran, and uses the apparatus of state to suck blood and treasure out of the Iranian people, all to enrich a secretive class of demented hypocrites who cosplay … but are really violent mobsters with missiles and an army….a kleptocracy.”
No wonder they try to make everyone see Trump that way. The picture of them is coming too much into focus.
Did we learn from them? Or did they learn from us?
I think you are spot on with your analysis Juju. Well done. Obama and his corrupt CIA were probably primary trainers and the rotten to the core Brits and their bank of london and MI6 for decades more.
All part of the transnational criminal syndicate, as described by Brian Cates.
Ugh, the brits.
When I read that sentence in Jeff's stack this morning I thought, "I've gotta copy that and save it somewhere." It's a great description of the IRGC (and the democrats).
I thought it didn't sound much different that what our own government has done for years with their CIA backed color revolutions. They may or may not have secret bank accounts and villas in the UK and France, but they certainly have co-opted the elected government of the United States, and uses the apparatus of state to suck blood and treasure out of the American people, all to enrich a secretive class of demented hypocrites who cosplay as political leaders and bureaucrats but are really violent mobsters using our missiles and armies.
the war in Ukraine has been a massive money laundering scheme for them
Oh they DEFINITELY have secret bank accounts and villas in the UK and France, and everywhere else. Where do you think all the taxes collected went?
My thoughts exactly mirrored yours as I read those sentences. I instantly drew the parallels.
“The elected government of Iran”, surely you are being facetious. “Elected” is an inappropriate term for an entity that slaughters thousands of people.
Sort of how our elections also became corrupted - or how they co-opted the elections. We think we are electing but really they are selecting.
Hmm... Demoncrats 2024 anyone?
All evil has the same tutor. Thank God, his days are numbered.
Yup I agree with you, there are striking similarities.
I was going to say exactly this.
Great observation!
You nailed it, Juju.

Last, on the “Supreme Court Strikes Down Louisiana Map, Another Blow to Voting Rights Act.” This FALSE. They did not strike down anything other than that race-based gerrymandering is unconstitutional.
MLK dreamed of a country where people are judged NOT by the color of their skin. Drawing congressional districts by the color of voters' skin is the OPPOSITE of that dream. The Supreme Court got it right. The fact is, we marched for liberty and fairness. MLK did NOT march for segregation
If you think about it they were disenfranchising black voters way more than protecting them. What happens to all the black votes in those other legitimate districts that would have wanted representation from that district’s candidate but were trapped inside a “blacks only” district with a candidate that doesn’t speak for them? It robs them of their voice. Just because they are black does not mean they all share the same beliefs/values/politics. That treats them like collective animals without independent thought.
the plantation 2.0
Terrence,
You are right. And it was just another deeply nefarious way to keep us all divided and keep Black Americans in their box with just enough gravy. Think about it.
PS: It is perfectly legal to gerrymander according to political advantage; this has happened since the inception of the country. But it's not legal to do so by race.
California is about as gerrymandered as a state can be. It is not in the least by influenced race, but rather, by Democrat voter presence no matter what the race. They just drew new lines to overwhelm Republican presence in certain red areas.
I've noticed how everyone in the press and also Republicans in the press all seem to ignore Calirornia, probably because they have just written it off. It belongs to the Democrats top to bottom. Even before national elections, everyone knows how it will go and that CA electors, for example, will always be Democrat. You barely even need to count the votes it's so saturated with Dems. BUT....it's instructional to look at how things have ended up in CA while nobody was looking, because that is what the Dems want to achieve in every single state if possible. So pay attention.
Also, as commentators discuss current gas prices, they virtually NEVER highlight California's ridiculous gas prices, which are a couple of dollars more per gallon than anywhere else. What on earth don't they hammer this fact home to the whole country? They give "average" gas prices around the country, but omit Newsom's California prices. The prices here are due to a variety of crazy environmental policies implemented by Dems and crazy environmental lunatics in this state. But if they get more and more control in other states, guess what will happen to YOUR gas prices?
California's Demonic Party may pay for their gerrymander. The problem with the new lines is that the new districts voters draw closer to 50/50. Any surprise, such as extremely high gas prices in CA, could cause a swing against the gerrymander.
Yes, political-ideological Districting may be even worse with the rise of Violence-prone Entitlement-Progressivism emanating from Commie-run Public Schools and Socialist Media platforms. Gentrification of minority enclaves (ghettos) by educated white folks with money is also heavily swaying the delineations of Districting as has Immigrant Invasion and resettlement planning. This SCOTUS ruling will not be a cure to this problem! Also Republicans as a party and as voters lean heavily to govt services and public-private programs as well so the problem grows in scope over time and area to swallow up the entire nation.
I wonder what this decision will do the the events currently unfolding in Virginia
Bottom line: you can’t gerrymander based on immutable characteristics.
Agreed. I often refer to myself as a culturist, not a racist. If you truly love God and do your best to abide by His moral code, you’ll be my BFF. But if you abide by a satanic culture of murder, violence, abuse, lying, stealing, cheating, et al, you will never have my sympathy and I will fight against you and your Father of Lies.
Race-based apportionment for Districting is akin to application of apartheid and principles of Balkanization rather than a Constitutional Republic with Liberty and Justice for All.
I'm going to keep it simple:
After the SCOTUS ruling the only thing Republicans need to do, at this point, to turn this country around after the damage the most racist and vile president ever(Obama) to occupy the white house did to this country is......wait for it....
Endure being called raaaaaaacist.
Can they?
I keep pushing that all these ad hominem terms liberals throw at us are old, worn out and meaningless now.
I just call them racist. Because they are racist to the core.
Fire with fire. Its like they don't know how to respond because they've had a monopoly on it for so long.
When someone claims that I have offended them, with some totally innocent remark (as they often do), I turn around and claim that THEY have offended ME by THAT remark.
They usually turn and leave, with a blank face. Because it never occurred to them that this can work both ways, if that is the con-game they insist on playing.
My husband has said a few times to such people, "I am offended that you are offended." They don't know what to make of that comment, and it's amusing to watch.
Yup. Same idea. Your husband has figured it out. Good for him.
Turn the tables on them, rather than acting defensively.
I used to say "Being offended is a choice." So true. It's actually healthier (mentally and socially) to give people the benefit of the doubt.
It is not about giving people the benefit of the doubt. It is about turning their own con-artistry tricks back on them.
I may be a racist but at least I’m not a Democrat.
Both true, ryan and A! They are racist, and they speak hate speech!
The sad thing is the whole thought of "you can't be racist if you're not white", which is the prevailing mindset of the people who try to pull the race card. :(
The irony is that the SPLC claims to be an anti-hate group, yet they hate any one or any group that doesn’t align with their ideology, e.g. MAGA, pro-lifers, those against mutilation of children, etc.
Well, be careful. Because the religious extremists can be as bad as the leftwing WOKE. Polar extremes on the Psychological spectrum (described by Freud) are the same as one another, except for their narratives. Psychologically, they are the same types.
And when they go too far in their extremism (either type), they often flip into evil. Jung gave this the name of Enantiodromia.
You see this in 2026 with the far-leftwing WOKE/Democrats flipping into acceptance of political violence. We saw this on the far-rightwing in 1692 in Salem, when the Puritans considered themselves so righteous and godly, they flipped into Witch Hunts.
The idea is that healthy life seeks Homeostasis. Balance. The Golden Mean. Not far-leftwing WOKE-ism or far-rightwing religious extremism.
Though both sides think they are "good". And they cannot understand why "more good" (as per their own definitions) is not the way to go.
Virtue is found in Homeostasis, not in extremes.
The World Order sets up countless groups to promote any type of idea, and then sets up other groups to fanatically oppose them, but the masters have no dedication to anything except slavery." The World Order Eustace Mullins 1992
The top Globalists are Psychopaths, who are fanatical about controlling other people, to fill the void of their own Attachment disorders.
Honestly, I don’t think it will even register with these folks. They have lost their ability to think.
Really. After long reserving judgment (and avoiding it myself) I now believe the worst stories about fluoride in the water. Can't account for it another other way. Dumbing down the schools and dumbing down the students goes hand in hand.
I suspect rather a lot of them have never been able to think in the first place.
Its still fun!
Lost? Were they ever able?
They are a rare breed but some are triggered enough to try to understand why their world is crashing down. This happened to me when Trump won the first time around.
Or they were never taught how to think...public skool system.
lol, Ryan years ago, that would have ruffled my feathers now I could careless.
I think that word has lost a lot of meaning since it got thrown at everything and anything. If everything is racist, nothing is. Or as others have started saying "your race card has been declined".
“ Suppose we discovered that all our top Pentagon officials had secret overseas bank accounts stuffed with millions, villas in the South of France, and so on.”
And what makes you think they don’t?! Many of them certainly seem to have the equivalent! Looking at you, Nancy Piglosi!
Pelosisaurys is in the deeply corrupt congress, not the Pentagon. Thankfully we have Hegseth and his cleaning shop in DOW and I promise if there is one general officer or worse the deeply rotten, corrupt, highly left biased SES (corps) we will know about it.
Will he also stop the DOW from funding "medical" experiments and other black op operations that do not benefit the public?
Also, DOGE did an assessment of the Pentagon.
DOGE looked into Pentagon spending? Did they get a look at black ops spending, which is probably an endless pit of money? Part of the problem with the pentagon is that Congress hands them unlimited increases in spending. They never seem to say, "you've got enough."
Piglosi. - 😂🤣😆😂🤣😆🤣😆
I spit my coffee on that one. I love the gems this community comes up with. 🤣
All these politiians and especially presidents leave office VERY comfortable. Look at Obama's two homes, one on coastal Hawai and another at Martha's Vineyard. (apparently not worried about sea level rise due to the alleged climate change he and Biden created so many policies about).
Don't besmirch pigs please, lol!
I’m sure Pete Hegseth is raking in profits from the war. Nancy certainly wasn’t and isn’t the only one playing this game. She’s not even the best, Kushner is in a different universe.
That money could prevent DOD increase and balance the budget.
Seems that the budget process has gone crypto. But FISA is needed to prevent exposure.
Yeah where did Milley and the other generals crawl off to Italy? Or Argentina?
top Congressional officials....there fixed it
From a Black Republican representing a majority-white district:
https://x.com/JoshWilliamsOH/status/2049511276892610910?s=20
Rep. Josh Williams @JoshWilliamsOH
I'm a black Republican who currently represents a majority-white district in the Ohio State House and is running to represent a majority-white district in Congress.
The idea that black Americans need special districts carved out just for them is complete nonsense. It's a violation of the law and blatantly unconstitutional.
Glad the Supreme Court made the right decision.
I cannot say enough good things about Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Like Trump he is doing monumentally important work for all of us and Jeff's description of his efforts against the criminal terrorist irgc is one small example.
100% with you Dan! Secretary Bessent does not waste words nor suffer fools and his humor just slays me. He is also possibly the sharpest pencil in the administration’s drawer. I would love to be a fly on the wall when he and DJT riff on their low IQ opponents and spitball new strategies. His congressional testimonies - well “That’s gold, Jerry! Gold!” (hat tip to Kenny Bania - Seinfeld)
love Seinfeld! Hello Newman...
I loved a post on X by Jesse Kelly yesterday:
“I love that there are multiple reports of Scott Bessent getting in fistfights with various Trump cabinet people.
We’ve got a gay finance genius in the White House just throwing hands with anyone who steps out of line.
It kills me.”
I couldn’t stop giggling
Love it. Absolutely love it. He can pound on anyone he wants as far as I am concerned. Bessent is a true genius. With a wicked sense of humor. Trump recognized this and turned him loose. We are all benefitting.
Bessent is a real "treasure", one of my favorites! Steady, and brilliant.
Doesn't the asset forfeiture and seizure go back to the EO 13818 from 2017? All according to plan. What has been seized over the years that we don't know about? Probably enough to completely cancel the "national debt", and end the Federal Reserve permanently.
The Iranian people, who are by and large NOT evil, will need those funds to rebuild, especially if we have to do the power and bridges thing. And if the wells go kaput, it will get exponentially worse for them.
True, I hope Iran becomes Persia again.
Make Iran Persia Again. MIPA!
I was using that phrase a few weeks ago.
Dave, you say that a lot. Persia was cruel back in the day. What am I missing?
If the people prefer to stay with being called Iranians, then that is their choice. I simply make the point that Iran is being freed from the muslim regime.
Ok, got it Dave:}
YES!
They should distribute that money to the Iranian people and use it to help rebuild the country. After all, it belongs to the Iranian people.
I agree, all that the mullahs had gained. But there are billions in other seized assets from other entities and orgs. as well.
TAKE...IT...ALL...
I'll go against the grain here and say that I don't like the idea of asset seizure at all. Besides blowing the claims about how "private" and "safe" crypto is, it makes me think about how the Patriot Act was once used for preventing terrorism before it was used against its own citizens. I fear that in the future our government, especially as some Democrats are now socialists, will seize assets from citizens who don't go along with The Narrative.
There is so much happening behind the scenes. And all the pomp and circumstance of the UK King Charles visiting and making his presence known is more about him trying to regain some sort of control over the outcome of what Trump is doing than anything. Trump is undoing what has been done by every President back to before Eisenhower. Do you know that it has been noted by historians that Queen Elizabeth for 70 yrs received our intelligence briefings???? We should be outraged! That is until Trump stepped up. He is putting an end to their system of global governance with what is usual and customary. He’s not playing their game. That’s why they’ve tried to kill him 3 times. Don’t think for one second those guys weren’t brainwashed to attempt what they did. They will keep coming for now. Hold onto your hats! It’s gonna get crazier as the midterms approach.
Trump let the "king" know that we are again ending the British rule here.
Damn right. go to hell charlie and mistress camilla.
Weird how the No Kings types have such fits of adoration over pedo Charlie.
Charles "I want to be Camilla's tampon" is a scumbag. Diana lies in her grave since 1997 after using her as a brood mare and testing her virginity and all the while fiddling with that hag Camilla. They both gross me out and gag me with a spoon.
Remember Diana saying "There are three of us in this marriage" ?
Indeed.
I read something about the gold fringes not being on the flags at the Charles and Trump meeting had symbolic meaning
Jeff, my worry is it's the Republican Party that will be taking over! The Dem Party is the highway to Hell...but the RINO Party is the slower backroad to Hell
So, step 1, get rid of the Dem Party. But step 2 is getting rid of the RINOs and RINO adjacent pols.
And before the Left recovers, take back K-12 education AND all of the colleges and universities to lock in the return to a Constitutional Republic based on a moral citizenry.
Slow gives us time to oust them and to make each of their days hell.
“ But step 2 is getting rid of the RINOs and RINO adjacent pols.”
That’s hard to do when Trump endorses them! Before the primary even!
Great 'take', GregWA! I have two Republican Senators I call regularly to ask what they are doing to promote the SAVE Act, and get the bill PASSED and IN FORCE before November. Surprise, surprise - - still waiting for answers - -
I remember when I was little coming to the realization that if cancer was cured, the American Cancer Association would be out of business. That principle goes for every other organization raking in profits to “stop” something awful (or in the case of the intellimafia, federal funding to stop terrorism). So it’s no surprise that the hate profiteering smear machine known as the SPLC would fund false flag hate attacks as an ongoing ad campaign.
“Money Laundering for Dummies” made me think of this iconic scene from “Office Space”:
“I can’t believe what a bunch of nerds we are. We’re looking up money laundering in a dictionary.”

Yes, this^ 💯
First!! Haha! I beat you Janice! Now I need to go read the article
I was patiently waiting for it to appear in my inbox, but then decided to read yesterday's Chris Bray, and of course was ten minutes late, lol.
Dave if you really want to be first, dont wait, instead bang on the website until it refreshes with the new page. The email goes out after that.
Ha, let the games begin! Now we ALL know the secret!
Haha, gotcha.
Well done. Welcome to the club 😂🤣😂
😆❤️
You should wait till late in the day to comment "FIRST!!" from now on, just for fun.
If anyone asks, refer to something unrelated. "Oh, I just saw a hamster house made of hot dogs."
Do it daily and get crazier and more creative.
Let's all beat Janice at her own book-flogging and virtue-signaling game! It would be a delight to see her face when she realizes we are on to her.
I don’t think anyone is trying to beat Janice or anyone else.
Well, Linda -- I am suspicious of Janice and her ploys. She is selling a self-published book, and she uses the Substack PR tactic of rushing to the top of the site every day to place her advertisement first.
It also makes her appear very virtuous to play the Scripture-lady. Even though her only action is to cut and paste from any of the many scripture websites. Nothing actually virtuous about that. But if you don't think about this, you are likely to fall for it. Then her fellow cult members rush in immediately to upvote it many times, so that it remains at the top.
Chicanery under cover of "Christianity" is a very old and well-used ruse.
I have seen a lot of fraud in my time, and I know how the human unconscious responds to particular coded behaviours. I tend to recognize them where I see them,
I suggest the Robert Cialdini books for general readers: "Influence" and "Pre-Suasion" to get a better idea of how the tricks of the trade operate through particular patterns used in the human mind. It's Evolutionary Psychology.
HEAR, HEAR! I always thought "Janice" was a little sus. Thanks for sussing it out!
It is what I have done since grad school. I'm a bit of an expert, you might say.
I never see Janice advertising or suggesting any books, just posting scripture. But you are advertising and suggesting books by Robert Cialdini.
Do your homework, John. Janice Powell's profile is about her book. From which SHE profits, of course.
Don't you understand the difference between suggesting a book title, and profiting on a book you are selling yourself? Do you actually think I profit in any way from suggesting the titles here of books written by others? I am doing readers a favour, actually.
Sheesh! Go back to square one. That was a dumb comment.
Methinks you protest too much.
Methinks you just fail to see and understand what I see and understand. Come back when you have done the studying.
Why can't I cancel you? I did what everyone told me to do. HEEEELLLLPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!
Great. I hope you find the correct button. Because I will block you first if you don't.
I don't wish to hear from your sort. It will be refreshing if you are gone.
You sound like a child in a playground. So there! nanny nanny boo boo to you!
Left click on the circle or the name. It will bring up the profile. You'll see "Subscribe", "Message" and to the right of message there are 3 dots. Click on the 3 dots. One of the options is BLOCK. Click on that....DONE!
Oh how I love a daily dose of hope, humor, and truth!
Just as Trump laid out in his National Security Strategy which he published 3 months AFTER the summit with Putin in Alaska, he is pulling the empire back to a hemispheric defense by establishing control of the world's chokepoints (such as the Straits of Hormuz, Malacca & Gibraltar) and withdrawing from NATO.
.........................................................
Trump Begins Consolidation of US MIL in Western Hemisphere
Trump JUST spoke to Putin and said things were positive, and now Trump announces they are looking into reducing our standing army in Germany.
Just as I hypothesized, Trump is reducing our military footprint in the Eastern Hemisphere, which will lead to normalized relations with Russia and China, and the end to the war in Ukraine....
https://bioclandestine.substack.com/p/trump-begins-consolidation-of-us
I have to add, I grew up in the 50s and 60s. And it still sounds so strange to me to talk about "the empire" and no one bats an eyelash. I started using the term empire to describe the USG in the 70s and people would look at me like I was from Mars. That's how effective Gov't controlled education is at keeping the people brainwashed.
The Empire- I think of Star Wars!
I think Gary Allen's book in the 70s was a take-off of Carroll Quigley's books in the 40s-60s about the British Network.
But the Network needn't have worried, because very few were paying attention.
Strait of Hormuz blockade achieves the goals of WEF and Agenda 2030 – coincidence?
https://expose-news.com/2026/04/30/strait-of-hormuz-blockade-achieves-the-goals-of-wef/
I don't comprehend how trying to control the waters on the other side of the Earth is Trump pulling the US back to our hemisphere. I support getting out of NATO, of course. We should have done that in 1991.
I also don't get how "We meant well" is not a good excuse for the SPLC stealing money from donors, but it's an excellent excuse for the US stealing money from Iran. Maybe that's what happens when you put a Soros employee in charge of the US Treasury.
Mrs. RW
Firstly, controlling the various straits prevents China from doing us harm. It was brilliant. Secondly, we are not stealing money from Iran; we are holding money stolen from the people of Iran for the people of Iran. Don't be a doomer.
"Both flawed concepts were exposed in Barack Obama’s awful take."
There's a terrific takedown of Obama's awful take in TwiX. It expands upon similar points Jeff made. I'll reprint it below, but it's fairly long, so first I'll give you the link:
https://x.com/theobjectivist/status/2049583968677458190?s=20
"Everyone should unequivocally condemn the government-imposed racial discrimination Obama is pushing!
Obama makes three errors in one post, all of them philosophical.
First, the United States is a constitutional republic, not a democracy. The purpose of the Constitution is to protect individual rights from the majority, not to ensure "equal participation in our democracy." The Founders designed the system specifically to prevent what Obama is demanding: unlimited majority rule.
Second, "protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach" sounds correct until you examine the premise. Rights belong to individuals, not groups. The moment you define rights by racial group membership, you have adopted the same collectivist framework that produced the discrimination you claim to oppose. Jim Crow categorized people by race and assigned rights accordingly. Modern voting rights activism does the same thing with different beneficiaries. Both are collectivism.
Third, gerrymandering is a problem created entirely by the system Obama wants to preserve: a political structure where the drawing of district lines determines outcomes. His solution is not to fix the structure. It is to ensure his side draws the lines.
The government must treat every citizen equally before the law. Everyone should reject Obama's framing entirely. He is not defending individual rights.
He is defending group power, while using the language of rights to make collectivism sound like liberty."
