Agreed, the best thing is to get the word out and let people know what happened. Absolutely disgraceful.

If a conservative bank had done that to Michelle Obama the media would have lost their ever loving minds.

Is there such a thing as a conservative bank? They're all either woke/leftist or neutral, I suspect.

This is DEI/ESG from Blackrock and other investment managers. Same thing they are trying to do to gun stores by creating a new credit card merchant category for them - versus "sporting goods" - so banks can refuse to do business with them.

The wonderful Salena Zito, explainer of Trump to the pointy-headed intellectuals:

Trump on not letting anything get in the way of unfinished business

quote:
Former President Donald Trump set the tone for the final stretch of the presidential race when he took to the stage here in Butler, turning away from the crowd for the briefest of seconds, just as he did 12 weeks ago, and said, “As I was saying.”

Starting where he left off on July 13 before he was shot.

Those four words told everyone, perhaps even more so than when he raised his fist toward the crowd shouting, “Fight, Fight, Fight,” that he was a man who was not going to be knocked down, and was willing to leave everything on the field to take care of unfinished business in the White House.

In an interview with the Washington Examiner before the rally, Trump was somber in explaining how important it was to him to honor the family of Corey Comperatore, the former volunteer fire chief who was killed during the shooting in July. . . .

Like East Palestine, Ohio, just 30 miles as the crow flies west, the people who live here in Butler are often anywhere from fourth to ninth-generation residents who would not care to live anywhere else. They are also often forgotten by the people in the national media, corporations, government, and academia, who view their sense of place as the “middle of nowhere.”

Trump says it is important to him to show up in places like Butler, but also in East Palestine, as he did a couple of weeks after a Norfolk Southern train carrying toxic chemicals derailed, causing an environmental disaster.

The former president showed up that day, walking through the entire village through pounding sleet and mud, bringing crates of water bottles and buying hamburgers from the local McDonalds for the workers.

Revealed: Iran’s plot to infiltrate Trump’s team to stop him toppling regime Secret document outlines Tehran’s plan to woo figures close to the Republican candidate to soften his stance on the Islamic Republic

Link

quote:
ran is plotting to infiltrate Donald Trump’s team amid fears he could topple its regime, according to a secret dossier.

The Telegraph has obtained a regime policy planning document which reveals Tehran’s five-point strategy to woo figures close to the Republican candidate’s camp in an attempt to soften his stance on the Islamic Republic.

The 120-page dossier, entitled “US Re-Trumpization 2024,” expresses fears over how Trump could “adopt a maximum pressure policy against Iran,” including limiting its control of the Middle East and ending relationships with Russia and Saudi Arabia, if he regains the White House.

It cites a renewed American focus on Tehran because of its support for Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthi terror groups in the year following the October 7 attack on Israel.

“They realized their assessments were incorrect and that Iran continues to support resistance groups,” the document reads. “Consequently, both Democrats and Republicans are likely to seek increased pressure on Iran after the Gaza war.”

Trump, who is described by Iran as “the frontrunner in the 2024 United States election,” is considered a particular threat because of previously hostile policies towards the Islamic Republic, including sanctioning the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, its top general, in 2020.

He recently said Israel should “hit the nuclear first and worry about the rest later” in response to last week’s Iranian ballistic missile barrage.

It comes after Boris Johnson, Britain’s former prime minister, described the “sheer unpredictability” of Trump as a reason why rogue leaders fear him, in an exclusive interview with The Telegraph.

Tehran felt that it was caught off guard ahead of Trump’s 2016 election victory, having planned for a White House led by Hillary Clinton maintaining Barack Obama’s cordial approach to relations with Iran.

The Islamic Republic has been previously accused of attempting to hack Mr. Trump’s campaign and setting up phony websites targeting African-American and Muslim voters in the critical state of Michigan in an attempt to sway the election against Trump.

The plan to “neutralize” the threat posed by Trump, according to the Iranian document, involves lobbying hundreds of former administration officials and think tanks close to the Republican candidate.

Nice try assholes but Trump is five steps ahead of you already. Don't you numb skulls have enough problems with picking a war with someone who can make your pagers blow up?

All Northeast PA members, a heads up that I only found out about yesterday:

Santander Arena, Reading PA:

President Donald J. Trump to Hold a Rally in Reading, Pennsylvania


I went to the one in November 2016 at Hershey Arena and it was an amazing experience, the energy in that stadium was nothing short of spectacular and there was a real sense we were going to pull this off. I left with a friend to arrive about 3 hours early and we still barely made it into the max capacity event. Friends of ours who got on the road later arrived too late and were stuck outside and never made it in.

Trump on twitter. Lol.

Lyin’ Kamala, who is being exposed as a “dummy” every time she does a show, just stated to the degenerates on The View that she would have done nothing different than Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES.

The Lamestream Media doesn’t want to pick up the story, the dumb women on the show wish they never asked her the question that led to that Election Defying answer, but the Internet is going WILD.

For starters, THE BORDER DISASTER, WITH MURDERERS AND EVERYONE ELSE BEING ALLOWED TO INVADE OUR COUNTRY, WORST INFLATION IN HISTORY, THE UKRAINE DISASTER, OCTOBER 7TH WITH ISRAEL, LOSS OF ENERGY INDEPENDENCE, THE AFGHANISTAN DEBACLE, LOSS OF RESPECT ALL OVER THE GLOBE, AND MUCH MORE!

Never thought of it quite this way. Thought it to be worth posting.

The 2020 Theft Saved This Country
By John Conlin
Self-professed radio guru Jessie Kelly recently did a show discussing the reality that, often, what seems like a win in life can turn out to be a loss, and what seems like a loss can turn out to be a win.

I was thinking about this regarding the uproar from the vice-presidential debate question to JD Vance whether he thought Trump lost in 2020.

First, let’s state the obvious… of course, Trump won in 2020. The statistics are overwhelming. Leftists often try to use statistics to “prove” racial discrimination in all sorts of situations. For some reason, they don’t seem to have the same desires and statistical certitude regarding the overwhelming statistical evidence that Trump won.

Combine this with the truckload of obvious -- and unexplainable -- shenanigans across many states and it is clear the rightful winner was Trump.

And in all honesty, it still pisses me off that this was done in what was once the freest, greatest country the world has ever seen. And worse yet, so many -- on both the Right and Left -- were okay with it. Anything to keep that monster Trump out of office.

So, at first glance, this looks like -- and felt like -- a significant loss for the right and conservatism. Upon their taking office -- and in this situation, it really was taking office -- Biden and company immediately set out to undo basically everything Trump had done. If Trump’s fingerprints were on it, it needed to be killed. Again, this looks like a loss.

But was it? If Trump’s win had been acknowledged, he would have been President for the last 3.5 years. A whole lot of bad things in this country and across the globe wouldn’t have happened. But they did.

But these actions and their results have acted as a catalyst for real change. Looking back, we will see this stolen election as the nadir, a profound inflection point in this country’s -- and the world’s -- politics.

We have discovered corruption and institutional rot that permeate our government and society. And this time, the evidence is so overwhelming it is impossible to ignore or write off as right-wing fever dreams.


The blatant politicization of the DoJ, FBI, CIA, IRS, military, judiciary, etc. -- really almost every aspect of the federal government -- has been laid bare for all to see. For many of these folks, the concept of equal justice under the law is something they discarded long ago. Many states are as bad or worse.

For years, DEI has been destroying institutions and companies across the board. That is ending now.

Institutions of supposed “higher” education have revealed themselves to be little more than dumbing-down indoctrination centers. Much of public K-12 education has been shown to be the same. The school choice movement is now unstoppable.

I used to think the Great Replacement theory was a crazy idea, but I’ve seen it in action. What other reason could there be for inviting tens of millions of the world’s illiterate poor to cross our now nonexistent borders to come feast on our social safety nets paid for by Americans? It is clear that American citizens are second-class entities in their own country -- illegals come before them at every turn. This is undeniable.

The stolen election and its aftermath helped show this to millions. The same is true throughout Europe. We would never have gotten here without the stolen election.

These institutions were this way before, but this period has removed all doubt. And before one can begin to address an illness, one must first accept the reality of the disease. We have done that.

The path forward won’t be a straight one. It will probably involve a lot of “2 steps forward, 1 step back,” but we have bottomed out. The future might look far different than today, but history will show this was the high water mark for socialism, communism, big government, gender insanity, and a whole lot more.

And we owe this awakening to the “loss” of a stolen election, which is turning out to be a wonderous win.

Compare what would have been the second term for Trump 45 versus Trump, the 47th President of the United States. If he had been acknowledged as the winner, his administration would have continued to be hamstrung by the various pukes -- RINOs, uniparty members, and just those intent on sabotage - who populated his administration from the VP on down.

This will not be the case with Trump 47. Those folks are long gone, and this time, they will not be invited back. Trump and his cohorts are far sharper, far more prepared, and far more intellectually ready.

Vance versus Pence? Not even a contest. It will be the same across his administration.

Look at the new coalitions being formed this very moment. Minorities and the working class are embracing Trump like never before. Those who were once enemies have joined hands because their eyes have been opened by the results of this stolen election. It is truly a glorious thing.

47 will be orders of magnitude more impactful and successful than second-term 45 would have ever been! Here and across the globe.

I laugh every time I think of that. Second-term 45 would have been successful, but 47 will be that on jet fuel. The impact Trump and his administration will have will exceed any before him. This is one of the reasons they want to kill him. And Trump isn’t the end; he’s just the beginning. This is a generational transformation that is just starting and it is now unstoppable.

So, thanks for a stolen election. Whether it’s “what goes around, comes around” or FAFO, this administration and its stolen election have sealed their fate -- and it is not a pretty one. Sometimes, what seems to be a loss turns out to be a win.

Thank you, God!

I’d like to think this is true.
I recently posted about Don Jr. He says his job in the 47 administration will be “keeping the snakes out.”
He’s already vetting thousands of applicants for posts in the be new Trump administration.

In other words: he’s kicking ass and taking names.

Yes, as I pointed out recently, this is not the Donald Trump of 2016. This is a Donald Trump (and family) who damn well know how things are and what needs to be done.

Trump was not fully prepared to face the onslaught of the swamp in 2016; he was inexperienced and perhaps a little naive in regards to the real workings of Washington DC. This inexperience led him to rely on people like Christie, Mattis, Kelly, and worst of all, Pence, all who worked overtime to try to derail his presidency. It is amazing he got so much done despite the internal opposition in the WH, the constant attacks from the Establishment and his own party.

But in the last 8 years, he got a PhD in his political education. He owns the Republican Party now. He now has loyalists working with him. MAGA is now widespread. He has X (twitter) and Elon Musk on his side. He is more popular today than ever. Ballot fraud is now a valid concern in elections, with strategies and tactics to combat it. And he now understands the Establishment and their tactics. The 2024 Trump is a well-oiled machine.

Anyone who doesn’t believe there is a clandestine 4th “branch” of the government who wield enormous, unchecked and unconstitutional power comprised of unelected folks who seem to answer to no one isn’t paying attention.

We need to beat the cheat and clean house, destroy the current system and get back to basics. Only chance we have for this country to last another 200+ years.

These new allies, particularly Elon Musk, bring experience and capabilities never before seen in the Republican Party.
And in Congress we won’t have a Paul Ryan nor a Mitch McConnell.

I remember thinking in 2020, that even if Trump is elected, we've got 4 years and then the Democrats will win in 2024. It would be like a "stay" on a sentence, but we would still have to deal with the Leftists one way or another in the near future. After 8 years of one party in the White House, the pendulum usually swings the other way. Not always but often.

One of the most important things we need to stop the Leftists is Supreme Court justices. Trump confirmed 3, and had he been re-elected, Breyer would not have retired and there would have been no nominations. The Leftists Forcing Breyer out and replacing him with Jackson didn't really change much. But my biggest fear is that Thomas (76) or Alito (74) pass due to old age and get replaced with a far left idiot like Jackson. Even Roberts is 69 now.

I agree that Biden/Harris/Obama going whole hog as far left as possible has exposed them for who they really are, and those of us who believe in the Constitution and our inalienable rights can no longer give any democrat the benefit of the doubt. They are statists drunk with power, and they have to be stopped, one way or another.
