Is NASA Too Old & Pale?

Comments: Former NASA head administrator Dan Golden:”NASA is too Male…Pale and Old”….

Does Dan Golden believe that Israel’s Space Program is to Jewish….Male…Pale…and Old?

* The gods on Mt. Olympus gave [Hillary] the most brilliant political mind of her generation as a husband. The Fates thwarted their plan by rendering her deaf to his words.

The Ancient Greeks would have relished it.

* So Bill got it all right. The funniest thing about this election’s aftermath is realizing that if he had run again, he would have won, again. Goes to show that being married to an extraordinarily skilled and intuitive politician does not make you one.

* Only so much greatness can be thrust upon one so shrewishly untamed.

* Two points: the first is that the Clinton campaign’s Ada software failed miserably (because polling was so bad in this election), so it’s hilarious to see the most data driven campaign ever get called out by a hillbilly political savant. A few newspapers had to hastily edit their pre-written pieces about Ada in order to explain why it didn’t work. The second is that it’s surprising the Clinton’s have a condo near the River Market instead of a mansion in the Heights. Then again, Ted Danson has a condo around there (his wife is from Little Rock), so maybe there’s a secret celebrity enclave in Little Rock for folks who want to get away from New York and LA.

* I knew as soon as Beck started quoting Richard Spencer that when he got to Sailer the quote would be the New Orleans/Let The Good Times Roll thing. Probably the most ill considered thing Steve has ever said (even though it’s true). Spencer at least is a honest to goodness racist, but I’d be willing to bet somebody spent a lot of time coming up with the worst things he’s ever said as well.

MORE COMMENTS:

* Come on, the connection is quite logical. Breitbart specifically named Steve Sailer as an intellectual center of the alt right, and that is widely acknowledged far beyond Breitbart. And Bannon specifically claimed Breitbart as the official news outlet of the alt right. Sailer and Bannon may not have direct communication but they both have clear prominent ties to the alt right movement. Sailer has never refuted the alt right or the neo reaction. AFAIK, “alt right” and “neo reaction” are labels for the same general political movement.

* Glenn Beck is following the same career trajectory as Morton Downey Jr. Within a week or two he’ll stagger out of an airport men’s room with backwards swastikas magic-markered on his face, shrieking that he was jumped by alt-righters.

* There’s a very intelligent parts of the alt-right and there’s various mean, smug, obnoxious parts.

The people Twitter banned were definitely on the mean, smug, obnoxious part of the alt right. I used to follow John Rivers and Ricky Vaughn, I’ve read them a ton, Sailer has linked John Rivers, they occasionally have great tweets, but they had a lot of mean spirited, nasty stuff too. I unfollowed them. Richard Spencer also has too little intelligent insight and too much meanness and obnoxious smugness. I’m alt right and I can’t fault Twitter for banning those guys.

A younger alt-right twitter guy I would recommend as a better choice is nunzioni.

And as serious adult writers, I’d pick Sailer (of course) and Ilana Mercer.

Steve Sailer is definitely a intellectual highlight of the alt right. That one Sailer quote Beck and NRO criticized does seem unnecessary and mean, I’d like to hear Sailer’s explanation, but it is still a rare exception to Sailer’s witty and intelligent writing.

* When we consider that according to crime statistics, black offenders commit more than 50% of the country’s murders, even though blacks make up only 13% of the population, isn’t that substantial corroboration of Steve’s point that blacks “tend to possess poorer native judgment than members of better-educated groups” and that they “need stricter moral guidance from society.

* I can’t for the life of me think why what Steve said about letting the good times roll be a good message for the Black underclass is either wrong or motivated by racial hatred. That statement is self-evidently true, and the message of Black preacher after Black preacher. That message is front and center for example, for the Nation of Islam. That Black underclass people need order and structure in their lives, and the NOI is just the one to provide it.

As for Twitter, banning anyone not a Liberal Democrat makes them feel good, but it is likely to burn their company down to the ground. Disney and Microsoft and Salesforce all passed on buying them, as did Fox and a number of other potential suitors. Twitter is not making money now, and with their user base halved and Gab.ai poised to make them the next Myspace, things are not looking good for Jack Dorsey and company.

Indeed Zuckerberg may feel he has to placate his Whitey-hating wife (who doubtless hates him most of all, she’s a woman and Chinese, thus full of hate hate hate for White beta males like Zuck). And his board. And his pals in Silicon Valley. But all that will do is produce an exodus from Facebook of those advertisers most want to reach beyond young White women — White people with money. There are not enough ultra-rich people to support an ad network which is all Facebook really is. There is Google Hangouts, and a host of other social media places, besides Fakebook.

Fakebook is likely to be just another liberal social platform, along with lots of non-English speakers from poor Third World countries who are of limited if any interest to advertisers with real money to spend. Fakebook may have 1.7 billion “active” users; but about 989 million are exclusively mobile (read: living in a Third World hell-hole with no computer).

Of course, Donald Trump is a man who does not get even with those who cross him, he is notorious for turning the other cheek and just groveling before his enemies, so the actions of Bezos and the Amazon/Washington Post, AT&T/Direct TV, Comcast, NYT, Fakebook, Twitter etc. have no anti-trust, Sherman Act ramifications. None whatsoever.

* Steve Sailer: “That statement is self-evidently true, and the message of Black preacher after Black preacher.”

I would imagine Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton more or less agree with what I said.

* Spencer might well be smug, and I can’t say that I’m his biggest fan, but he didn’t actually do anything on Twitter to warrant the ban except hold verboten political views. Yet Twitter’s let “Rape Melania” trend and accounts that have tweeted death threats at Trump are still up. They’re not just banning people for being nasty, they’re banning them for being heretics.

* Can we get a categorical statement from Steve Sailer on whether he opposes white genocide or not? And whether he is opposed to the formation of a white ethnostate? To just put it on the record formally for documentation purposes? A simple yes or no will do.

* Congratulations Mr Sailer — so far you’ve survived Twitter’s purge of alt-right accounts — although it’s not clear to me that an ‘alt-rightist’ is worse than a ‘white supremacist’ — anyway, just for fun I looked at Twitter’s ‘About’ page — Our mission: To give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers — I emailed them to suggest they change the wording to almost everyone.

* Beck’s histrionic hand-wringing over what was, in fact, a perfectly accurate and reasonably expressed comment by Steve, seems to me not only obsequious and desperate, but also rather ill-played even from his own point of view. It’s obviously an attempt at virtue-signalling, but to whom is he sending the signal? To the very group people whose ideals were just roundly thrashed in last week’s election. Hillary Clinton and her fawning presbyters in the MSM had the entire presidential campaign with which to make “racism” do as much damage to Donald Trump as they possibly could, and the result was a whole lot of nothing. So now comes Glenn Beck belatedly to the scene, to pick up the Left’s shivered spears and brandish them around at nobody, pretending to be a veteran of a battle he was never in, all so that he can ingratiate himself with the losing side’s host. What kind of sense does that make?

It is evident from this that Glenn Beck is an evasive, ascetical carper. He has a psychological need to remove himself from real currents of action that might prove definitive, to stake out deliberately contrarian positions, and to set himself up as pastor over his little flock of losers who have been left out of the big decisions. Thus his muslin “concern” and his instinctive ministering to the defeated. The man born for priestcraft will always find some “church” over which he can hold his intellectual sway, his presence as indicative as a carrion bird’s as to where the bodies lay. I hesitate to say it, but it was precisely Glenn Beck’s presence in the Tea Party that proved to me that the process was doomed to fruitlessness, for they were nothing but the dispirited remains of the old Movement Conservatism which had received a fatal blow with the first election of Obama—a field white for the harvest of laborers like Beck.

It is best, indeed, to simply stay away from this man, to not try to make sense out of what he is doing, unless you can see beneath the surface of things. His expressed ideology at any given moment counts for very little. His real purpose is ever and always to be an alternative to reality. His kingdom is not of this world. He is the lord of the loons.

* Beck’s career trajectory should serve as a timely wake-up call to Megyn Kelly. After the Million Mall Thing, Glenn Beck was on top of the world.
Megyn has just doubled down on the progressive future of FOX, for which network she was all set to become The Face.
It didn’t work out. She’s rattled. She wishes she could edit most chapters of her book, but it was timed to release straight after Hillary’s victory.
They are both victims of pop psychology and poor judgement, but I repeat myself. They ought to have realised their limitations and settled for something realistic.

* Think BIG and Kick Ass in Business and Life in Business and Life by Donald Trump & Bill Zanker. (HarperCollins, 2007). Chapter 6, Revenge:

Donald J Trump:

…

So do not hesitate to go after people. This is important not only for the person you are going after but for other people to know not to mess around with you.

When other people see that you don’t take crap and see you are really going after somebody for wronging you, they will respect you. Always have a good reason to go after someone. Do not do it without a good reason. When you are wronged, go after those people because it is a good feeling and because other people will see you doing it.

Getting even is not always a personal thing. It’s just a part of doing business.
…

I love getting even when I get screwed by someone—yes, it is true, people still try to take me for a ride, and sometimes they succeed, rarely, but when they do I go after them. You know what? People do not want to play around with me as much as they do with others. They know if they do, they are really in for a big fight. Always get even. When you are in business you need to get even with people who screw you. You need to screw them back fifteen times harder. You do it not only to get the person who messed with you but also to show the others who are watching what will happen to them if they mess with you. If someone attacks you, do not hesitate. Go for the jugular. Attack them back in spades!
…

I always get even. In the 1980s I recruited a woman from her job in government where she was making peanuts. She had nothing when she met me. I thought she was smart and that under my mentoring she could be very good. She was a nobody in her government job and going nowhere. I decided to make her into somebody. I gave her a great job at The Trump Organization, and over time she became powerful in real estate. She bought a beautiful home.

When I was going through tough times in the early 1990s, I needed her help. I asked her to make a phone call to an extremely close friend of hers who held a powerful position at a big bank and who would have done what she asked. She said, “Donald, I can’t do that.” I had taken her out of a dead-end government job. I encouraged her. I mentored her. I made her, and then she told me she couldn’t do it. I got rid of her and then she started a business on her own.

Later I found out her business failed. I was really happy when I found that out. She had turned on me after I had done so much to help her. I had asked for one favor in return, and she turned me down flat. She ended up losing her home. Her husband, who was only in it for the money, walked out on her, and I was glad. Over the years many people have called asking for a recommendation for her. I only give her bad recommendations. I just can’t stomach the disloyalty.

I put the people who are loyal to me on a high pedestal and take care of them very well. I go out of my way for the people who were loyal to me in bad times. This woman was very disloyal, and now I go out of my way to make her life miserable. She calls asking to get together for lunch or for dinner. I never return her calls.

* Beck has always seemed like a desperate man seeking redemption. Still, it’s amusing to see him triple down on cuckservatism as his media organization crumbles, plan for political obstruction fails and his credibility craters.

The reason for the near media blackout on Steve Sailer in the afterglow of the Trump victory just dawned on me. His reasonable, well-researched views presented in a sober manner will resonate with far too many rubberneckers, unlike the more inflammatory presentation from the likes of the Radix Journal. Richard Spencer’s demeanor can also be off-putting the uninitiated. That’s why they choose Spencer as the Face of the Alt Right.

* Between 1980-2008 blacks (13% of the US population) committed:

45% of aggravated assaults.

Buzzfeed: This Is How Steve Bannon Sees The Entire World

Posted on November 15, 2016 by Luke Ford

LINK: The soon-to-be White House chief strategist laid out a global vision in a rare 2014 talk, one where he said racism in the far right gets “washed out” and called Vladimir Putin a kleptocrat. BuzzFeed News publishes the complete transcript for the first time:

Steve Bannon: [World War I] triggered a century of barbaric — unparalleled in mankind’s history — virtually 180 to 200 million people were killed in the 20th century, and I believe that, you know, hundreds of years from now when they look back, we’re children of that: We’re children of that barbarity. This will be looked at almost as a new Dark Age.
But the thing that got us out of it, the organizing principle that met this, was not just the heroism of our people — whether it was French resistance fighters, whether it was the Polish resistance fighters, or it’s the young men from Kansas City or the Midwest who stormed the beaches of Normandy, commandos in England that fought with the Royal Air Force, that fought this great war, really the Judeo-Christian West versus atheists, right? The underlying principle is an enlightened form of capitalism, that capitalism really gave us the wherewithal. It kind of organized and built the materials needed to support, whether it’s the Soviet Union, England, the United States, and eventually to take back continental Europe and to beat back a barbaric empire in the Far East.
That capitalism really generated tremendous wealth. And that wealth was really distributed among a middle class, a rising middle class, people who come from really working-class environments and created what we really call a Pax Americana. It was many, many years and decades of peace. And I believe we’ve come partly offtrack in the years since the fall of the Soviet Union and we’re starting now in the 21st century, which I believe, strongly, is a crisis both of our church, a crisis of our faith, a crisis of the West, a crisis of capitalism.

Why Has Glenn Beck Turned Left?

Posted on November 15, 2016 by Luke Ford

Here’s the problem. Trump is right on immigration and the wall and trade but he is not the guy I’d want to execute on any of them. I’d want an alt-right Andrew Cuomo. And there is no such creature. Trying to get security clearances for your kids is a 3rd World move.

The Goy In Exile

Posted on November 15, 2016 by Luke Ford

A goy professor tells me: So, how do whites move to explicit identity instead of implicit identity? My internal response to all the alarmism from Haaretz & elsewhere has been to reply, “but you (Jewish Americans) don’t know what it’s like to be *only* American.”

But from there I can hear a Jew say, “well then just participate!–join Judaism, or Catholicism, if you have to.” But the thing is, there aren’t really “Catholic-Americans” the way there are Jewish-Americans. They’re not tribal. And then if I try to be explicitly “white-American” I face the prospect of losing my job and being socially exiled… AND even whites would shun me at that point. So I’m fated to be an exile.

The first paragraph of WEB DuBois’ “Souls of Black Folks,” where he asks famously, “what does it feel like to be a problem?” Ironically, in 2016, only white men know the answer to that.

So if people can’t successfully sue to restore their social media accounts, that leaves them which options? When you back a dog into a corner, it reacts with fury. Twitter is backing the Alt-Right into a corner. Twitter, Google (has blackballed this website from its search results since Aug. 17 even though its own webmaster tools say this site is clean), Facebook, Instagram and all the big tech companies have colluded to rig the game against people who support Trump, the president elect of the United States.

Daily Caller: Twitter Initiates Mass Purge Of Alt-Right Accounts Following Trump Victory

Twitter has initiated a major purge of accounts associated with the alt-right exactly a week after GOP President-elect Donald Trump’s stunning electoral victory.

One of the first and most prominent accounts caught up in the deletion is Richard Spencer, president and director of the National Policy Institute, an alt-right think tank focused on white identity and related policy issues.

Twitter removed Spencer’s verified account, formerly available at @RichardBSpencer, Tuesday evening.

“This is corporate Stalinism,” Richard Spencer told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “Twitter is trying to airbrush the Alt Right out of existence. They’re clearly afraid. They will fail!”

Not only did Twitter kill Spencer’s personal account, but Twitter also suspended the National Policy Institute’s official account (@npiamerica) and its online magazine (@RadixJournal), in addition to a separate book publishing company run by Spencer called Washington Summit Publishers (@washsummit).

The ban took place the same day Spencer appeared on NPR and The Daily Show.

Numerous Twitter users expressed shock at the suspension, while others tried to come up with explanations for the purge.

Paul Town, one of the alt-right trolls responsible for feeding Olivia Nuzzi at The Daily Beast a false and outlandish narrative on how Pepe the cartoon frog came to be associated with white nationalism, was also suspended.

Other suspended users, among many, include Pax Dickinson, Ricky Vaughn and John Rivers — all notable and prominent alt-right accounts.

Several Twitter users noted that the mass bans could be a result of new reporting features the company added to prevent “hate against a race, religion, gender, or orientation,” as part of a policy change.

The move by Twitter threatens to diminish the explosive power of the alt-right, which has made use of Twitter to brutally troll journalists and political pundits, in addition to supporting Trump and spreading its political philosophy in front of millions of people.

Just last week, Amelia Tait at New Statesman noted that the alt-right’s influence has surged, largely in part due to its use of social media networks. As she put it, the “alt-right – a new political movement of individuals with racist and misogynist viewpoints, who exist primarily on the internet – have thrived under Trump’s candidacy, and remained mostly unchecked by social media giants.”

Tait argued that social media giants need to “improve the way they deal with trolls, vitriol, and death threats on their sites.”

Charlie Warzel at BuzzFeed News recently made the case that Twitter was essential to Trump’s wildly successful campaign and has also resulted in the “empowerment of the insurgent political movement of the alt-right who, through a coordinated effort of trolling and online organization, drove enthusiasm and momentum against the establishment and for Trump.”

While Twitter has in the past slowly cracked down on accounts near the alt-right, such as those of WeSearchr CEO Chuck Johnson and journalist Milo Yiannopoulos, the major purge Tuesday evening of prominent alt-right accounts is so far unprecedented.

In response to the purges, many alt-right users are heading over to Gab, a Twitter substitute platform with a much more aggressive free speech policy.

Bnai David-Judea Shul Struggles With The Election Result

Posted on November 15, 2016 by Luke Ford

I would estimate that 80-90% of the members of the modern orthodox synagogue Bnai David are on the Left. There must have been a sense of mourning there following the election.

On Shabbat, its rabbi, Yosef Kanefsky, said from the bima: “For the truth is that every single one of us is shaken and upset today, no matter who we voted for. For over the past many months, the values that every single one of us holds dear, the values that we have received from our parents and try desperately to instill in our children, value like trustworthiness and truthfulness, compassion and empathy, respect for others and humility within oneself – have been debased and belittled, mocked and ridiculed on the most public of public stages. And now we face – all of us together – the frightful prospects that the American social fabric has been severely damaged, and that those with the darkest understanding of America are emerging empowered.”

If you want something really shocking, study the Torah and the Talmud. They are far more shocking than this election. I don’t have much sympathy for Jews who have studied Torah and then proclaim how shocking and awful the goyim are. Shul politics tends to be at least as brutal as American politics including Trumpian politics. There’s nothing Donald Trump has said that is not said in a shul on Shabbos morning.

Jews and Muslims ramp up alliances in wake of Trump’s election

Posted on November 14, 2016 by Luke Ford

The Coalition of the Fringes against the core.

Patriotic Americans must be revolted.

As though it is Trump’s rhetoric that is the poison, not leftist activism and Muslim terror.

What American Jews need is a movement like Jews for Consistency wherein Jewish groups never seek for the goyim anything that they would not want for themselves. Most groups want cohesion but all the major Jewish groups in the diaspora fight for fragmentation and diversity and multiculturalism.

(JTA) — For years, whenever Jews and Muslims engaged in dialogue and activism together, it usually concerned — or foundered — on one issue: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

With Donald Trump’s ascent to the presidency, that appears to be changing. Regardless of what’s happening across the ocean, Jews and Muslims in the United States are joining together to fight for shared domestic concerns.

“It is a perhaps growing recognition that [the Israeli-Palestinian conflict] cannot define how American Jews and American Muslims relate to one another,” said Rabbi David Fox Sandmel, the Anti-Defamation League’s director of interreligious engagement. “The shared concerns we have about prejudice, about bias, about threats of violence, about disenfranchisement — these are the kinds of things that can bring us together.”

On Monday, the American Jewish Committee and the Islamic Society of North America launched the Muslim-Jewish Advisory Council, a group of religious and business leaders from both communities who will help draft domestic policy legislation and advocate on issues of shared concern.

The ADL is planning to increase its efforts to provide support for legal and legislative efforts in the fight against anti-Muslim bigotry.

And the Shalom Hartman Institute’s Muslim Leadership Initiative, which educates young Muslim leaders about Judaism and Israel, held a retreat over the weekend titled “Living in Trump’s America: Muslim Vulnerability and Jewish Echoes.”

“What’s happened as a result of the poisonous atmosphere that Trump has created is that American Muslims are desperate for allies,” said Yossi Klein Halevi, the Muslim Leadership Initiative’s co-director. “And the argument that MLI has made to the Muslim community — which is that the Jews are, at least in theory, natural allies for embattled Muslims — now has become compelling.”

Both Jewish and Muslim groups have expressed worry about Trump’s rhetoric, and his supporters’ actions, over the course of the presidential campaign. Muslims have protested Trump’s 2015 call for a ban on Muslim immigration to the United States, as well as his insinuations that Muslims celebrated the 9/11 attacks and have withheld information from law enforcement about terrorism. Anti-Muslim attacks rose during his campaign, and a string of attacks has followed his election.

And while Trump has not explicitly targeted Jews, Jewish groups raised alarm over his endorsements by white nationalists and online attacks on Jews by his supporters, along with his remarks late in the campaign that echoed anti-Semitic tropes. Jewish groups have protested his naming as his chief strategist Stephen Bannon, the executive chairman of a website, Breitbart News, that has been accused of incitement against Muslims and coddling anti-Semitism among its writers and readers. In addition, the ADL decried “a wave of anti-Semitic vandalism” following the election.

In the past, differing stances and sensitivities regarding Islamic extremism or Israeli military action drove groups apart. Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said he hopes Jewish groups will be more willing to work with his organization following Trump’s election. Jewish groups, including the ADL, have resisted working with CAIR due to its anti-Israel stances.

“It’s always been our position that we’re open to shared and cooperative action with the Jewish community,” Hooper said. “It doesn’t really take Donald Trump to spur that. I think it’s created an urgent need for mutual cooperation between all like-minded organizations and communities.”

The newly formed Muslim-Jewish Advisory Council, which has 31 members from both communities, formed shortly before Trump was elected last week. The council will focus on protecting the right to wear religious head coverings, prohibiting discrimination in the workplace, recording hate crimes and advocating for immigrants and refugees, according to Robert Silverman, the American Jewish Committee’s director of Muslim-Jewish relations.

“It is a reaction to some of the bigotry and hate speech that came out of the campaign,” Silverman said. “We’re concerned about the public discourse in the whole country. We’re also concerned about messages that originated within the two communities. The Trump phenomenon is only going to make it come together more quickly.”

Jewish activists who have long championed Jewish-Muslim collaboration believe their community is finally coming around.

Rabbi Marc Schneier, co-founder of the Foundation for Ethnic Understanding, which brings together leaders from the two religions, says he hopes Jews will come to the defense of Muslims if Trump follows through on his proposals to ban Muslims from entering the country, or to create a registry of American Muslims.

In June, Schneier’s foundation launched an initiative called Muslims are Speaking Out that highlights Muslim condemnations of extremism and aims to dispel misconceptions Americans have about the Muslim community.

“We have the obstacle of greater Islamophobia and anti-Muslim rhetoric,” Schneier said. “The opportunity is that this is another test for the American Jewish community. Will it step up to the plate, and will it perform as it has done in the past?”

America’s Emerging Nationalism Crisis

Posted on November 14, 2016 by Luke Ford

John R. Schindler writes for Observer.com: At a certain level, how Trump won is so simple that most pundits—the same people who gave the president-elect no chance of winning—can’t see it. The Republican nominee got enough white votes—especially among the working class, particularly in the upper Mid-West—to offset huge Democratic advantages among minorities and white professionals. This was the Sailer Strategy, named after the insightful blogger who coined the notion back in 2000. Steve Sailer’s essential idea, that the GOP needed to max out the white vote to keep winning national elections in the face of changing demographics, was rejected by most Republicans as smacking of racism.

It cannot be stated too many times that the GOP establishment repeatedly rejected Sailerism. Indeed, leading Republicans often seemed to run in the other direction from its commonsense logic. The facts are clear: that Mitt Romney failed to get many votes from working-class whites in the very places where Trump just attracted them in droves caused the GOP to lose the White House in 2012.

Steve Sailer: Trump Already Lessening Illegal Immigration

Posted on November 14, 2016 by Luke Ford

Los Angeles (AFP) – When would-be immigrants Bernardino and Samuel got word in Mexico of the election of Donald Trump, they immediately gave up their plans to cross illegally into the United States. …

Bernardino, a 34-year-old Honduran who declined to give his last name, was looking for a “coyote” to help him slip into the United States near the border city of Tijuana when he abandoned his plan. So did 18-year-old Samuel, a Salvadoran.

Both men said they feared that if they are caught, their family members living north of the border might suffer.

“Imagine if they stop me, after a while my family living over there would have problems. The truth I never imagined is that the blond man might win,” Samuel said at Padre Chava’s breakfast hall, a soup kitchen in downtown Tijuana that provides food and clothing for more than 1,000 immigrants every day.

COMMENTS:

* What a shame, we’re won’t be getting these two future Nobel Prize winners.

* Mexicans and their anchor babies can not even deliver The United States national football team a FIFA World Cup championship, let alone give us Nobel prize winners.

Mexicans are the epitome of punching below weight.

* Talking tough goes a long way towards securing the border. Who woulda thought? It sends a pretty powerful message to all those groups that tell us how ridiculously expensive and impossible it would be to secure our borders.

* One purpose of The Agenda™ is to make the very idea of a white male being in charge of anything utterly absurd, unthinkable.

* Proper leadership at the top can set a new tone and make a large difference. I am hoping for a best case scenario where millions of illegal aliens realize that the jig is up. If they have saved a bundle they self-deport, they leave with it and start new lives in the third world lands they were born. This can happen. We need the right actions and rhetoric for Donald Trump.
So far so good. Yesterday he started his deportation campaign by saying he will deport three million illegal alien criminals. The leftist lawyers will wage war against this, will try to tie up each case in court, forever.

* More Trump-effect in Eastern Europe. Moldova and Bulgaria just elected national leaders who are anti-corruption political outsiders. Both favor turning away from the European Union and towards the Eurasian Economic Union.

* Illegal immigrant’s rights are still limited. There’s not a lot they can do. Eisenhower, when he got fed up, sent illegal Mexican’s back by the busloads.

Also, if you understand anything about Mexican culture, you know they are people who like to have a nice day. They don’t have the patience to put up with constant contention and uncertainty in a country they don’t fully understand. They will gravitate towards certainty, and that’s in Mexico, not here.

The big bomb that has yet to be dropped is stopping federal dollars to Sanctuary cities. That’s gonna put a lot of liberal politician’s balls in a vice, especially in California. I can’t wait to see what they do when willfully undermining federal law starts costing them money. Or rather, I can’t wait to hear their justifications when they drop like a house of cards. In NYC, we might be seeing an insane amount of rentals opening up on the upper west side. How is whitey, desperate to live in Manhattan, going to craft a protest over that outcome? Above 125th street on the west side, it’s essentially Dominican. Massive piles of illegal Dominican immigrants dominate the land there, since they ethnically cleansed it of blacks decades ago. In Los Angeles, where libs are howling to the moon over outrageous rent increases, what are they going to say when decent swaths of Boyle Heights opens up with reasonable rents?

I cannot wait. The next 4 years is going to be awesome. As the new conservative republican movement rebrands and grows, the dems, like a dysfunctional family, will destroy itself. I LOVE the fact that they’re currently doubling down. Keep protesting, you idiots!

* Did everyone notice the giant loophole Trump has given himself on border control? He’s committed to moving forward quickly on deporting criminals. Since coming here illegally is, in fact, illegal, they’re all criminals and he can deport any and all of them and nobody can say he didn’t warn them.

* So Central Americans who illegally cross about a half dozen national borders fleeing “gang violence” are heroes, yet Americans who cross the county line to escape the same are the worst sort of people?

* That article is totally bizarre, Alice in Wonderland bizarre. It quotes Moqtada Al Sadr, responsible for tens of thousands of sectarian killings in Iraq, criticizing Trump for not recognizing the difference between moderate and extreme Islam.

* California is essentially desert scrubland, and desalinization plants costs a lot of money to run, and carry a large “exhaust” problem:

Salt. You can’t just dump it back into the water.

Not to mention the overall inherent damage to the environment where they plop their desalinization plant.

This brings us back to illegal immigration. If Ann Coulter’s estimates are correct, and her past reporting gives us no reason to assume otherwise, we have around 40 million illegals scattered about these United States. If we were to hazard a guess of how many were in California, I don’t think at least 5 million, not including their anchor babies, would be unreasonable.

So if we do the math of how many gallons of water an average person uses per day, multiply by 5 million, and we’re talking a significant amount of water being sucked out of our supply daily, to hydrate illegals and their anchor babies. This is putting us on a direct course to desalinization plants, as well as repurposing sewage water, as San Diego has begun doing.

Why does everything Democrats touch turn into a massive shitshow?

I can’t think of any major social movements they’ve been behind that didn’t turn rancid.

Going back to the Viet Nam war, had they not publicly protested, the war would have ended a couple of years sooner, by most experts accounts. Even further, turns out the McCarthy hearings were a great idea, rather than a witch hunt. The Rosenberg’s, who dems squawked about for years, turned out to be what was charged. They even made a movie about it with Tim Hutton called “The Book of Daniel,” that was all about the Rosenberg’s victimization. I notice it’s not available on Netflix. Never will be.

I talked to a doctor the other day, who works at UCLA medical center. He said since Obamacare came into play, their emergency room is packed, and scheduling important surgeries has become a three-ring circus. The place is so overloaded, they’re barely functioning.

Tons and tons of hispanics converged on the center, and it’s, according to a doctor who’s worked there for decades… a shitshow. I dropped a friend off at the emergency room at Harbor General hospital. The waiting room was full, and there was a LONG line going out the door, and around the building. The EMERGENCY room.

Elite libs don’t give a shit. They can pay to get to the head of the line. They’ll still be delayed a bit, but they can still make things happen. For them.

If someone shot Trump, our elites would laud him for it. They want Trump dead.

I can’t believe how many people casually say to me that they want to see the assassination of the president elect.

George Soros is pushing for a Trump assassination with these protests.

The elites are actively giving every potential Oswald moral license to kill Trump.

An assassin could rationally believe that were he to do this, he would receive wide acclaim and the gratitude of his nation. He would receive the gratitude of Hollywood.

For the sake of his life, Trump should stay holed up in the Trump Tower until the inauguration. No victory lap please! Too dangerous.
