It's been exactly ZERO hours since Democrats and their propaganda arm last embarrassed themselves.
After witnessing some of these hearings I've been relieved watching these D senators do anything but handling a knife in their kitchen.
Imagine knowing your ignorant and wrong and deciding you're going to be loud about it.
I want DOGE so far up the ass of the government that this can never happen again.That'll be the end of Democrats stealing from Americans and the destruction of the Ds, until they tack to the middle, after Elon is done with them.
Its also a huge asset for Republicans:
Elon will know every nook, cranny, knob, lever, systems and processes, etc.etc. He's literally the architect.
Brilliant.
And he's helping save America.
The first person he completely brings in the loop on this is who trump wants running in 28'
They became so accustomed to controlling the narrative, that their arguments didn't need to make sense or to be factual. Their cohorts in the media and the far-Left rank-and-file simply repeated the nonsense, making it appear to be the consensus.
But now that media credibility has collapsed along with their audience, plus polling showing an historic low Democrat approval rate of 21%, plus big money Democrat donor openly expressing their anger and blistering criticism, these former bullies are stunned that they can't land a punch.
Like Mike Tyson said - everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face. Well, Donald Trump has thrown a haymaker four years in the making that has landed flush on their collective nose. And instead of throwing in the towel, they continue to stagger about the ring on wobbly legs looking weak and silly.
I like my ringside seat and am enjoying the bout immensely.
Excellent comment. “…their arguments didn’t need to make sense or to be factual…”. But I hope to peanut butter and jelly (this is a family ‘stack) that I never have to see or hear another repeat of anything MisMargaret has to say.
It’s all performative wet-dream resistance. None of the “leading” resistance midwits are capable of leading a preschool class trip to a children’s museum, let alone bringing Trump to heel.
The grave threat cited by your enemies is that Trump and America are becoming . . . shudder 'n shake . . . masculine.
Gasp! What worse disaster could befall?
This should tell you exactly who your enemy really is: those who hate and fear masculinity, maleness, and fatherhood. Your enemy is the Sisterhood, as uncomfy as that makes you feel
A lot of the biggest proponents of this stuff are men. Weak and often gay men.
A friend of mine who worked at a lefty liberal arts college in Nov. of 2016 told me about how, the morning of Nov. 9, his boss (IT unit) came into his office sobbing that "Trump was going to dissolve his marriage." I.e. "marriage" (gay).
He said bossman sat there on his extra chair, atop the pile of papers n crap that (geek) friend had all over his office, sobbing and lamenting, for more than ten minutes.
What did you do, I asked.
"Nothing. But ten minutes in I wiggled my mouse to wake the box, and just started clicking and typing. He left after a bit."
Much of the subsequent TDS on that campus (that made national headlines) was led by weak and gay men. There was one very large and mouthy female, but the legwork was done by males.
To put it more bluntly, they’ve cried wolf so loudly and so often that even if there really was a wolf at the door, no one would pay any attention to them. Their histrionic rhetoric has become a form of self immolation.
It's Jill Filipovic, who is a feminist and therefore stunning and brave. Of course she's going to have a problem with Trump. And Vance. And Musk. It's literally her job.
When you're 41, but your Wikipedia entry has a photo of you from 2009--15 years ago, when you were a nubile 26--one suspects that the problem you have isn't actually with Trump, Vance, or Musk per se.
In 2021 Filipovic wrote a piece for the NYT, something like, "Women are having fewer babies because they have more choices."
She wrote that about a year and a half after marrying this guy.
So, in 2021 while she was writing at age 38 about not having babies being a CHOICE, her husband was publishing a book about the importance of bringing in Somali refugees.
In other words while he was apparently not interested in giving HER babies, or being a father himself, he was very worked up about other men's babies, and the women who bore them, and making sure to emote and champion and provide for them.
Not everyone is cut out to be a parent...but being honest in that discernment process is crucial. Otherwise it's not "choice," it's delusion, and it can lead to nothing but lies, deceit, bitterness, and eventually going stark staring bazonkers, in print and in real life.
If women like this really cared about other women--if they were actual feminists--they'd reflect on their reactions rather than just wallowing in their emotions. They would dig into why masculinity triggers them. They would examine sex and gender and identity and all that, but from a stance of reflection rather than reaction. They wouldn't give themselves an easy pass while lambasting others...which reeks of projection.
Unfortunately we have a mediascape where that self delusion, dishonesty, and projection are marketed to the masses as lifestyle, and people are coached never to examine and work out the harder issues.
Kinda reminds me of Scott Adams doing the turbo-mazurka on how he made superior choices than all of you plebs around the covid stabs...completely glossing over (and expecting us to forget) the fact that he got the stab in the first place because his much younger second wife was bored staying at home with him and wanted to travel. Couple years later they divorced. Scott's sick now. Can't be the stabs though.
Speaking of fools on the other side… I’m out in Commifornia This comment is from a former client/slash friend of many years, recent FB post.
She’s very wealthy, (husband was a ‘conservative’ defense contractor, who passed away, left her his company and she sold it for Big$$$), is a patron of the arts, travels all over the world to see opera, and lives in Encinitas, CA I find it rather ironic that the wealthy, progressive Dem, entitled class, are now feeling the need to “rise up against fascism”.
I gave a lengthy reply about me and my circle of friends ‘activism’ for medical freedom and personal sovereignty
these past five years here in SD. While these a-holes stood by, complied, got their shots in order to travel and maintain their lifestyles.
Her comment:
“I attended a music event in Los Angeles earlier this month. At the end, a woman stood in the balcony and addressed the audience. She said that if people feel they are encountering facsism, they need to speak up and be heard The audience applauded and shouted their approval”
“The time has come to demonstrate and protest actively. What I am mostly seeing right now is people posting mile-long diatribes on FB; I am seeing very little real activism. Those of us who are products of the 1960s know the value of activism. War protests and demonstrations led (eventually)to the end of the Vietnam War. The current passivity will lead only to greater and more egregious oppression. The time to speak up and organize is now!”
Now these people feel they need to stand up against the ‘Tyranny of Fascism’ that they perceive DJT bringing to us all in the US.
You mean the ‘tyranny’ that their side perpetuated on the rest of us for the past 5 years! Total delusional hypocrites!
Frontera Lupita— I totally recognize what you are talking about. And I just have nothing to say to these people. They are so delusional. And all jabbed to the wazoo. Many of them have told me, directly, that they have terrible brain fog. Anyway, I could have guessed that from the way they parrot nonsensical arguments, they forget names they wouldn't normally forget, and they oftentimes forget mid-sentence what they were talking about.
I used to rather enjoy their company. Now I mainly (1) avoid them or (2) put up with them as best I can manage and with rock-bottom expectations. I don't attempt to inform them, to explain to them, or to argue with them. They took their decisions a long time ago.
Just for a reference this was my comment to her FB post regarding ‘activism’.
“My circle of people have been participating in “public activism” here in San Diego and throughout CA, over the past 5 years, against the scam of the Covid Pandemic, (that was never a “pandemic”) the business lockdowns, school closures, the public recreation areas that were closed, the mandates, the mask wearing, the EUA mRNA ‘forced vaccinations’.
Our particular form of activism was in support ‘medical freedom’ and the right to choose a medical intervention for ourselves and to not have it be a ‘condition’ of employment, travel, to attend a concert, to attend gathering a wedding or a funeral, or being discriminated against and vilified because of our choices to not take an experimental medical intervention.
Kind of like the ‘reproductive rights’ crowd. We want “our right to choose”.
I would venture to say that the majority of the people in attendance at this ‘music event”, totally supported what happened “during COVID” and fell in line and complied.
They stood by complacent and silent, and said nothing, while so many lost their businesses, children lost their childhoods, people lost their ability to travel or freely move about, people suffered from vaxx injury and or death from the EUA mRNA ‘injections’,. And let us not forget people’s First Amendment rights to free speech, and being censored and or banned from most Social Media if one did not “fall in line with the propaganda narrative”.
And now these same people are railing against the type of totalitarian tyranny, that they now are calling ‘Fascism”, that ironically they waged upon others over the past five plus years.
That’s the irony as well as the hypocrisy of this argument. It was ok before, with all the BS they waged against society, but now it’s “Fascism” and “we have to stand up” against it.”
The woman who posted the comment about “activism against fascism” very likely got the jabs, so she could keep traveling to her second home in France, as well as all over Europe seeing various operas and concerts. She was doing this pre-C*V*D, then in 2021 jumped right back into traveling. She travels in an elitist world of wealthy patrons of the arts. She didn’t like my response to her FB post and deleted it. But I had saved my comment in a text and went back in and put it back, as well as a comment about the First Amendment and a person’s right to Free Speech.
Which is another thing that people like her, don’t think that people should have, the right to give an opinion or POV contrary to their own. She has since blocked me from her FB page. This all they can do is “block someone on their FB page”. They are such hypocrites. My ‘activism’ with my friends for 5 years for our “medical freedom” and personal sovereignty isn’t an “acceptable form of activism” apparently, that she wanted to hear about or her FB ‘friends’ to see.
It's not just hypocrisy on their part, and it's not just arrogance, it's a kindergarten level of incomprehension of what free speech even means. The price of society with free speech is that, guess what, some other people are going to say some things with which you profoundly disagree. Of course, I have not heard the current administration call for censoring anyone, on the contrary.
For so many people I used to hang out with before covid, the term "free speech" is now like "our democracy" and "fascism"— they're just buzz words now that mean whatever makes them feel good about themselves, and to put down people they don't like. Seems to me that, for them, the dictionary went out the window with the edits to the definition of the word "vaccine."
You're watching, in realtime, someone get inside the OODA loop of an opponent and the opponent literally go on media and air their cognitive dissonance. None of them of have a firm grasp on reality or how it plays out with actual working people.
I would have to find it somewhere, but I remember a talk by a hypnotist on Tim Pool's show once explaining that hypnotism works by tapping into the toddler area of the brain (or something like that) to bypass someone's rational thoughts and tap into their emotional centers instead. So you're not really thinking about something, you're just reacting to it in a way they want.
Needless to say it's hard not to feel or notice that the modern news media is using a lot of these techniques (often called "nudging") to basically pull that on the populace. Don't worry about giving the audience a reason, just convince them over and over and over that the target is bad, the target is scary, the target is going to hurt you. Because then like a toddler, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, the audience will just react and attempt to remove the scary thing by any means necessary.
Once you start noticing it, you'll start seeing it everywhere. I sometimes wonder if I've made myself too paranoid. But then given these hysterical reactions, I wonder if I'm not paranoid enough.
You're absolutely right. There's about 10% of people that literally can't be hypnotized (I'm one of them). There's been studies done correlating that with being a dissident.
It has to do with a keen sense of external manipulation.
Be interesting to see if that held true with the c19 PSYOP.
I'd bargain a piece thats the case with most of us to one degree or another.
I think I'm ditto on that. I've tried a few times, with no success.
I went to a hypnotist show once where the hypnotist informed all the males in the audience that they were the world's first pregnant man, and experienced the rather unsettling awareness, in the darkened room, of guys all around me going into labor.
Or the looks on the faces of the college student volunteers who were told that there was no number five. "How many fingers do you have on your hand? You don't know? Count them. One, two, three, four, six. Did you know that you had six fingers? How about the other hand? Same thing, six. Well, count them all together. One, two, three, four, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven. Does six plus six make eleven?"
Or the high school classmate of mine who volunteered, and was told, along with others, not to move. He took this literally, and got into trouble with eyes watering painfully until the hypnotist's assistant noticed his distress and told him he could blink.
And I can't even relate to it, even if I try. There's just no direct connection between what the hypnotist says and my own consciousness. It just drops short.
I like your theory about having a keen sense of external manipulation. I know that's part of it for me too. And I'm sure you're right about the c19 psyop. So many people were actually hypnotized, internalized it as a permanent conviction, and now have to somehow justify the externally influenced beliefs that were slipped into their minds then.
When a hypnotist who did a demonstration at my high school was screening potential subjects, he told us that being prone to hypnotic trance was actually a sign of superior intelligence and strength of will.
It took me a few weeks to realize that this was part of his strategy to make the subjects more prone to being hypnotized. (I didn't make it a subject, incidentally.)
It's been exactly ZERO hours since Democrats and their propaganda arm last embarrassed themselves.
After witnessing some of these hearings I've been relieved watching these D senators do anything but handling a knife in their kitchen.

^^This!^^
My dad would have said that DOGE needs to administer a 3-H enema to the Deep State: “High, hot, and a helluva lot!!”
“High, hot, and a helluva lot!!”
EPIC. Thx for that!
Like sand through the hourglass, these are the knaves of our lives. More mush from the wimps.
Will look in on comments tonight -- offline through the afternoon.
They became so accustomed to controlling the narrative, that their arguments didn't need to make sense or to be factual. Their cohorts in the media and the far-Left rank-and-file simply repeated the nonsense, making it appear to be the consensus.

They are still doing it. On Unherd, it's
-- Republican voters are upset with DOGE
-- Ukraine deal is bad for Trump/for Ukraine (nobody's seen it yet, right?)
-- Trump is confused
-- US economy is about to fall apart
Idiots.
Unherd, too bad, that website started out pretty well but it's just now another den of morons thinking they're erudite and clever.
It's mostly click bait now.
With at least one salacious article a week.
I joined for a while, and got the evil runaround when my comments stopped appearing. Stay away.
It was good early on in the Plandemic, but now clickbait and pearl clutching. I’m dumping it.
Oh and they are trying to push the idea that there is a "woke right." Pathetic.
So spot on. Helluva a comment
“ If he’s not Adolf Hitler, then why is his wife so hot?”
LOLOLOLOLOL
Thank you sir
she's no Eva Braun
There's a "The Producers" joke in there somewhere...
now I'm hearing it said by Nathan Lane
It’s all performative wet-dream resistance. None of the “leading” resistance midwits are capable of leading a preschool class trip to a children’s museum, let alone bringing Trump to heel.
“They couldn’t organize a beer-drinking contest in a brewery.”
I think of that insult a lot watching them mindlessly drone on about nazis
That is funny
Wet dream? They fired the Surgeon General and brought this on themselves with their self-abuse.
The threat tag on parents proves without a reasonable doubt that the US Government does not serve us and is a threat to We the People.
I just commented elsewhere that Gene Hackman (RIP), like all of the great actors, athletes, musicians, etc., made his job look easy.
I know he's working hard, but Trump is making the job of being President look easy.
"Power always thinks... that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws." ~ John Adams

HR ladies, dude. They’re a bunch of HR ladies.
I believe the term you are looking for is Affluent White Female Liberals. Just a side note: Some of them were “assigned male at birth”.
A lot of the biggest proponents of this stuff are men. Weak and often gay men.

Holy shit those were some depressing links
Mhm.
There are a lot of walking wounded women and men in our society, friend. And the media have exploited/farmed people's pain to the Nth exponential.
No matter how much you hate them, it's not enough.
Femsplaining.
Exactly.

En fuego. Keep fighting
Bravo!
There are people who can't be reasoned with and must simply be ignored (provided they're not violent) or imprisoned (if they prove to be.)
You're watching, in realtime, someone get inside the OODA loop of an opponent and the opponent literally go on media and air their cognitive dissonance. None of them of have a firm grasp on reality or how it plays out with actual working people.
I would have to find it somewhere, but I remember a talk by a hypnotist on Tim Pool's show once explaining that hypnotism works by tapping into the toddler area of the brain (or something like that) to bypass someone's rational thoughts and tap into their emotional centers instead. So you're not really thinking about something, you're just reacting to it in a way they want.
Needless to say it's hard not to feel or notice that the modern news media is using a lot of these techniques (often called "nudging") to basically pull that on the populace. Don't worry about giving the audience a reason, just convince them over and over and over that the target is bad, the target is scary, the target is going to hurt you. Because then like a toddler, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, the audience will just react and attempt to remove the scary thing by any means necessary.

You're absolutely right. There's about 10% of people that literally can't be hypnotized (I'm one of them). There's been studies done correlating that with being a dissident.
It has to do with a keen sense of external manipulation.
Be interesting to see if that held true with the c19 PSYOP.
I'd bargain a piece thats the case with most of us to one degree or another.
I think I'm ditto on that. I've tried a few times, with no success.

I went to a "hypnosis clinic" years ago to quit smoking. That's when I learned I can't be.
I didn't get the vax, never masked and went the "wrong" way in the grocery stores.
I'm lovin this 10% thing.
I have found a clip from the show and segment. This should be timestamped to where there's a bit of context.

Can't stand them either

It took me a few weeks to realize that this was part of his strategy to make the subjects more prone to being hypnotized. (I didn't make it a subject, incidentally.)

Ticket to Nowhere
Snort!
