  MAGA in One Step By  Karen Kwiatkowski ok ocracy and elections.  It’s about getting something for nothing, always and necessarily from someone else’s pot. Electing an executive, who in turn spends trillions of borrowed and stolen money every year – mainly to buy the next election, enrich themselves and their allies, always unaccountable, always unauditable, always failing to deliver more freedom and more prosperity – why, that how it works, isn’t it? H.L. Mencken was correct in his assessment of democracy and elections.  It’s about getting something for nothing, always and necessarily from someone else’s pot. Electing an executive, who in turn spends trillions of borrowed and stolen money every year – mainly to buy the next election, enrich themselves and their allies, always unaccountable, always unauditable, always failing to deliver more freedom and more prosperity – why, that how it works, isn’t it? Trump, with no third term to game, and with a new and extraordinary team of patri

  Decision in November 2024 Illusion of Choice, Delusion of Triumph Back in the day, a liberal Jewish cartoonist named Herbert Block (pen name “Herblock”) gave every new president a free shave. In the case of Richard Nixon, whom he usually portrayed with a very heavy late-in-the-day beard even at dawn, this was seen at the time as giving him – editorially speaking – a fresh start. These days, I expect Herblock would at least give Donald Trump a free haircut, no matter how much he disliked his politics. For my part, I consider presidential elections to be orchestrated and I believe voting matter little in the grand scheme of things. Nonetheless, Trump deserves a measure of respect for transcending what he and his family and friends endured in recent years. I’d be willing to clean Herblock’s clippers and sweep up after he was done. Nor will I soon forget Melania Trump’s smile – I’ll bet she has a list or three. So What Did Happen? Many people are using terms like “landside,” “steamroller

  Mr. Trumpenstein Returns to Washington Part 2- This time it's personal Donald Jeffries As I’ve said many times, when Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in 2016, I stopped making any more political predictions. I would have bet every penny of my modest net worth that the Queen of the Swamp would be rewarded for her years of loyal criminal service. A lifetime achievement if ever there was one. The photo above reveals a smiling Melania Trump. We’ve been told that she is unhappy with her energetic but elderly husband. Persistent rumors of divorce. Maybe she misses being First Lady, even with all the unfairly negative press. Barron Trump is shown towering over his 6 foot 3 inch father. He is almost certainly taller than his last reported height of 6 foot 7. Maybe he can play in the NBA. If LeBron James can force the league to play his eminently unqualified son, why not Trump? Barron’s a lot taller than Bronny James, and may well be a better basketball player. But he  is  White. Tru

  The Deep State by Alexander Dugin Alexander Dugin Alexander Dugin reveals the deep state as a corrupt Western cabal, infiltrating the U.S. and Europe to manipulate elections, crush populist leaders like Donald Trump, and impose its liberal-globalist agenda by deceitfully posing as a protector of democracy while ruthlessly subverting the will of the people. The term “deep state” is increasingly used today in political discourse, transitioning from journalism into common political language. However, the term itself is becoming somewhat vague, with different interpretations emerging. It is, therefore, essential to take a closer look at the phenomenon described as the “deep state” and understand when and where this concept first entered into use. This phrase first appeared in Turkish politics in the 1990s, describing a very specific situation in Turkey. In Turkish, “deep state” is  derin devlet . This is crucial because all subsequent uses of this concept are in some way connected to the
