Collectivists vs. Rugged Individualists, January 10 
The New Champion
It seems like a long time since the year began just days ago, doesn't it?
Zorhan Mamdani may have made a mistake when he said this during his inauguration:
* * * * *
Perhaps all those people with graduate degrees in NYC haven't noticed that he threw a block party with no food or restrooms.
But we can remember.
The Libertarians also remind us of a statement he made just after his election:
We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.Did people really think of New York government as based in rugged individualism? Do people who wish to be free from communism really think that they are totally independent agents? Mamdani is good at smiling, but he also issues sound bites which we should maybe remember as the business of running the city presents itself. We will have opportunities to undermine the present popularity of socialism in at least a few minds. Many people don't want to see poor Cea Weaver cancelled, just because she thinks home ownership = white supremacy and she hangs with a bunch of people who want to impoverish her mother, her family and ultimately each other.
We will prove that there is no problem too large for government to solve, and no concern too small for it to care about.Should this declaration be applied to his actions as mayor on a regular basis? What about all those white homeowners his administration plans to impoverish? Might they have some small concerns about which government could care?

The Classical Saturday Coffee Break & Prayer Revival
*****
Good morning boys and girls and everything in between. Before we enter the Prayer Revival just a few housekeeping matters to go over. (Rulz for those of you in Marion)
1) This is an open thread. Feel free to lurk, opine and/or bloviate.
2) Be kind, be nice.
3) Running with sharp objects? Remember your "Affordable Care Act" Deductible. It is now more expensive than the sale of your neighbor's kidney. Just sayin'.
4) Have a great weekend!
[Similar theme at deer camp about shooting the Monster Buck. "It's possible but not probable".]

I say alleging, but according to the filing, the president of the National Music Publishers' Association put the entire plan in writing as an email threat sent to Twitter even before the campaign started.

@EricLDaugh 17h 🚨 JUST IN: Because of the protests and riots, Minneapolis Schools are CANCELING mandatory in-person classes, offering virtual learning until Feb. 12 It's like a 3rd world country. Too dangerous to leave your house because of leftists. SEND THE GUARD!
On MSNBC, a left-wing rabble-rousing fake pastor lies his gay ass off:
Mark Hemingway commented: "Of all the things that didn't happen, this didn't happen the most." AWFL cries over the deportation of illegals, sad that the "people who clean the sheets in your hotel, do you landscaping" are having the law applied to them. "Gia," a useless SJW "worker" at a Hilton Hotel in Dallas, doxes the hotel's customers by telling the world that ICE agents are staying there. Fire her, ban her from the industry. Elderly AWFL Karen wants you to know she's sick of you MAGA types calling her a Karen. You know who the Karen is? YOU. Woke asshole AWFL broke her retainer by grinding her teeth because she's watching Trump "attack science." She becomes distraught when she finds out her dentist might have voted for Trump. Democrat party official and LGBTQ activist arrested for, you'll never guess, child porn. Dumpy leftwing Junior AWFL says she's fleeing Nazis in the US by moving to Germany. Dis Bitch can't even cut carbs, I don't think she's going to emigrate. Black radical: You can't do the "Say her name" chant for the white woman who was shot (while resisting arrest and attacking officers). The "say her name" chant is only for black women who are shot while resisting arrest and attacking officers. So stop it, White Racists!
FactPost
@factpostnews Pastor: I saw ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic. I said to this ICE agent, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The agent got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, 'Are you afraid now?' To which I said, 'I am not afraid.' The next thing I knew, they were putting handcuffs on me, and they put me in the back of an SUV. I asked them if I was under arrest. They said to me, 'Well, you're white, you won't be any fun anyway.'

Conan O'Brien: "Comedians" Who Do Nothing But Shout "F*** Trump" Are Not Comedians, Actual Comedians Need to be Funny
This guy's a liberal asshole -- remember him doing PSAs for the beauty and stability of Haiti, after Trump correctly diagnosed it as a shithole?
He's making an argument for Fighting Liberal Comedians like himself to actually try to be funny, because actual funniness is the "best weapon against power." (Um, it's not-- weapons are the best weapons -- but it's a weapon, I guess.) So he's not making a conservative point here, just telling his fellow shitlibs how to be more effective in their anti-Trump agitation. But if he's running down Steven Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel -- which he CLEARLY is -- I approve.Posted by: Ace at 05:30 PM | Comments (280) | Trackbacks (Suck)
Axios: Trump Alerted the Secret Service about Marjorie Taylor Greene, Believing She Tipped Off Code Pink About His Location So That They Could Ambush Him
This sounds like something a deranged, bitter narcissist and retard would do.
The relationship between President Trump and former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene grew so poisonous that the White House told the Secret Service that Greene may have tipped off Code Pink protesters about his surprise visit last fall to a D.C. restaurant she recommended, two sources on Trump's team tell Axios. That episode -- which involved a chaotic confrontation between anti-war activists and Trump -- embarrassed the president and intensified concerns in the White House about his safety, a year after he narrowly escaped an assassination attempt.Yeah, that's not a defense. That's bringing up irrelevant bullshit to cloud the issues.
Why it matters: Trump aides view the Joe's Seafood debacle as a point of no return in his relationship with Greene, a Trump ally-turned-critic who left office this week. Greene told Axios that any suggestion she revealed Trump's dinner plans was "an absolute lie, a dangerous lie. I would never do that." She said she recommended the restaurant to Trump but didn't know when he would go there. Greene added that only the fancy lobbyist hangout -- a few blocks from the White House, at 15th and H NW -- and Trump aides knew of the reservation. She said: "The story you should be writing is why didn't the Secret Service sweep the restaurant," and have metal detectors at the door?
I mean... that's game over, right? She claims that she didn't know when he was going but she kept calling him on the day of the dinner to verify he was going there.
It's unclear whether Greene is being investigated by the Secret Service, which did not respond to a request for comment. Greene didn't respond when asked whether the Secret Service had contacted her. Zoom in: Trump's Sept. 9 outing to Joe's with Vice President Vance and several Cabinet members was part of an effort to show the president's deployment of National Guard troops had made D.C. streets safer. Protesters with the liberal group Code Pink got within feet of Trump's table and chanted: "Free DC.! Free Palestine! Trump is the Hitler of our time!" For weeks afterward, Trump aides say they tried to discern how the group knew about his unannounced dinner plans, which were known only to a few people. The media wasn't given a heads-up about Trump's plans. ... White House officials didn't provide direct evidence that Greene alerted the protesters, but said their suspicions rest on two factors: 1. Her suggesting where Trump should dine Officials say that after recommending the president go to Joe's, Greene repeatedly called White House staffers the day of the dinner to confirm he was going.
After Trump heard about Greene's calls, he called her shortly before leaving the White House and confirmed his planned visit, the sources said. Greene -- who was a regular at the restaurant -- didn't show up there when Trump and other officials were there, which struck some Trump aides as odd.Indeed. Why didn't this attention whore and would-be teachers pet show up?
2. Greene's relationship with Code Pink White House aides note Greene is friends with Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin. Greene and the organization are aligned in their opposition to the U.S. providing military aid to Ukraine and Israel. Benjamin last year praised Greene for opposing Trump's bombing of nuclear sites in Iran and for calling to strip foreign aid from the Pentagon's budget. ... "I have enjoyed a friendship with Medea for a few years now, even though politics says that's not allowed," Greene said later.That's because you're a fucking retard and your ideas are retard-shit. The 40 IQ troll says it's not true:
... The other side: Greene felt slighted from the early days of Trump's second administration, according to a source familiar with her thinking. She believed Trump lieutenants didn't take her suggestions seriously and ignored her outreach even though she'd shown her loyalty to Trump for years, the source said.
Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸Her denial makes me think it's true, because she just starts spamming out irrelevant claims, like that it was all the Secret Service's fault because, she claims, they didn't sweep the restaurant. Okay, maybe they did or maybe they didn't -- that's irrelevant to the question of whether you tipped off Code Pink, and spamming out irrelevant nonsense makes me think: "The guilty mind betrays itself." I don't feel like quoting or addressing the rest of her screed. It's her usual shrieky-freaky scatterbrained ding-a-ling nonsense.
@RepMTG This is exactly what I told this little WH tool that wrote this absurd dangerous LIE about me on behalf of the WH because they are mad at me for telling the truth about the President and forcing the release of the Epstein files. Now they are making up horrific lies about me!!

Iran's Supreme Ayatollah: Protesters Are Just Working On Behalf of Donald Trump
Indeed.
Caroline Di RussoThis is now a viral trend.
@CaroDiRusso 17h This photo of a young Iranian woman lighting her cigarette with a burning picture of the Ayatollah is next level flex. It encapsulates the situation perfectly. Powerful and unforgettable. God bless the citizens of Iran rising up against this oppressive Islamist leftist regime.
Tousi TVIranians toppled the statue of Quds force commander Suleimani -- the "austere religious scholar" drone-struck by Trump -- and cheered as they did so.
@TousiTVOfficial 1h Nearly 24 hours after the internet was completely shut down, images are still emerging from across Iran. Mosques, Islamic centers, and government buildings were destroyed overnight, including sites in Tehran and cities across the country. Despite claims minimizing the scale, the footage tells a very different story. This is the aftermath.

US Marines Seize Another False-Flag Ship of the "Dark Fleet"
The WSJ:
Trump announced that the planned "second wave" of attacks on Venezuela have been cancelled, as the narcoterrorist state is releasing political prisoners in an attempt to seek peace.
President Trump on Friday said he canceled an "expected second Wave of Attacks" on Venezuela, less than a week after U.S. strikes in Caracas resulted in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. "Venezuela is releasing large numbers of political prisoners as a sign of 'Seeking Peace,'" Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. "This is a very important and smart gesture. The U.S.A. and Venezuela are working well together, especially as it pertains to rebuilding, in a much bigger, better, and more modern form, their oil and gas infrastructure." "Because of this cooperation, I have cancelled the previously expected second Wave of Attacks, which looks like it will not be needed, however, all ships will stay in place for safety and security purposes," the president continued. "At least 100 Billion Dollars will be invested by BIG OIL, all of whom I will be meeting with today at The White House." He previously said during a press conference on Saturday that a second attack would be "much larger" but likely no longer "necessary," citing the success of the initial attack.It might also be that Trump's blockade of Venezuela might be enough to do the trick.
The WSJ:
The U.S. Coast Guard boarded a fifth oil tanker early Friday morning and continued to eye other vessels trying to evade the U.S. blockade on sanctioned tankers traveling to and from Venezuela, according to U.S. officials. The tanker targeted Friday was the Olina, said the officials and Vanguard, a shipping security and tracking company. The ship, previously named the Minerva M, was sanctioned by the U.S. for its role in transporting Russian oil. The move is likely to inflame tensions between Washington and Moscow days after the U.S. seized a ship that claimed Russian protection and was being escorted by the Russian Navy. The ship has an East Timor flag, and the last time it transmitted its position was in mid-November near the coast of Venezuela, according to Marine Traffic, a global ship-tracking service, which added that it was sailing under a false flag.Ed Morrissey explains Trump's plan:
In the short run, this does put pressure on Delcy Rodriguez, who wants to run the Maduro regime without Maduro himself, who will spend much of the rest of his life as a guest of the Federal Bureau of Prisons. She needs the revenue from illicit oil sales just as much as Maduro did, and possibly more, given her less-stable situation at the top of the regime. Trump wants the regime gone, but doesn't necessarily want to put boots on the ground to accomplish it. Better to starve the regime and let the hyenas tear each other apart, but hopefully before Venezuelans pay the prices for that kind of collapse for too long.The "dark fleet" also puts money in the hands of Putin and the Mullahs of Iran.

Helen Andrews: Somalis Have Been Scamming the Government Since They Got Here
And their culture is piracy.
Keep that in mind when they say "We found three kids there." Okay, how many kids were they bilking the government for?
When unverified rumors first circulated that Rep. Ilhan Omar had once been married to her own brother, some liberals were scandalized that Republicans had the nerve to mention the rumor at all. You don't accuse someone of something like that without solid proof, as one friend said to me. But it was all a matter of context. The same sentence that sounded bizarre and depraved to American ears--she married her own brother?--sounded banal to anyone familiar with the Somali diaspora, where pretending to be someone's mother, wife, or sister is a common way of obtaining legal residency for them. A 2008 State Department study of African refugees (many of them Somali) seeking family reunification in the United States found that 80 percent of applications included at least one fraudulent family member. The program was then suspended for four years until a DNA testing requirement could be added.
... The type of fraud alleged in the [Nick Shirley] video matched the fraud described in an August 2018 memo by a Minnesota Department of Human Services investigator, which claimed that "the overall fraud rate in this program [CCAP] is at least 50 percent." DHS stopped payments to fifteen daycares for "demonstrated intentional overbilling" on the scale of "an average of 23.9 children per day, per center."
These centers did serve children, just not as many as they claimed. "It is not unusual to see attendance records claim X number of children arrived at the center between 8:00 am and 11:00 am when the video surveillance shows only a fraction of that number," the memo states.Here's an additional excerpt she posted to Twitter:

Thanks to MAHA, Several States Just Implemented Bans on Using SNAP Benefits for Junk Food; also, A Friend of the Blog Is Running for Statewide Office in Nevada
18 states have taken advantage of this opportunity, and the first junk food prohibitions on SNAP benefits were implemented on January 1, 2026. Those states were Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, Utah, and West Virginia. “Soda, candy cut for many SNAP users starting January 1. What states are affected?” [USA Today – 12/30/2025]
18 states have taken advantage of this opportunity, and the first junk food prohibitions on SNAP benefits were implemented on January 1, 2026. Those states were Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, Utah, and West Virginia. “Soda, candy cut for many SNAP users starting January 1. What states are affected?” [USA Today – 12/30/2025]
Millions of SNAP recipients are about to face new limitations on what they can use the federal assistance program to buy, including bans on soda, energy drinks and candy, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. "The Trump Administration is leading bold reform to strengthen integrity and restore nutritional value within the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program," the USDA said in a statement about the upcoming changes.Should the federal government be telling people what food products they can and cannot consume? Of course not. Individuals can spend their own money on whatever they want. But the taxpayers who are funding SNAP have every right to demand that welfare money not be used on junk food.
"Every American who wants to eat a donut ought to be able to eat it or drink a Coke," Kennedy said in early 2025. "But the federal taxpayer should not be paying to poison our children. And we're going to end that."13 more states will be rolling out various junk food bans on SNAP benefits later this year, including Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Colorado, Florida, Arkansas, Idaho, Hawaii, Missouri, North Dakota, South Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee. Companies that have come to rely on the taxpayer-subsidized SNAP revenue stream are not happy. “Big Sugar Ramps Up Lobbying Efforts as SNAP Soda Ban Spreads” [Bloomberg Government – 7/30/2025]
Food and beverage influence groups boosted lobbying efforts as more than a dozen states seek to block federal food aid recipients from using benefits to purchase sugary products. The American Beverage Association, which lobbies for Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo Inc., and other non-alcoholic drink makers, spent $1.7 million in the first half of 2025—more than double its outlay during the same period last year.Grocery chains also lobbied hard to keep revenue from the taxpayer subsidization of junk food rolling in. A report by the National Grocers Association argued that prohibiting SNAP users from purchasing junk food would cost grocers about $1.6 billion initially, and another $759 million going forward. Apparently, a dollar spent on milk instead of soft drinks hits the income statement differently.

The Morning Report — 1/9/26
Same deal with Islamikaze bombers. And now SUV road warriors. Someone is training them.
If Walz is retreating, he must be following the Wilton Parmenter definition. Retreat and reverse into victory!
Brilliant move, Timmy. As CBD and I discussed on the latest episode of the podcast, linked here and in the sidebar as well as available on the popular outlets listed at the bottom of the post, the last time a state called out the Guard to essentially challenge the United States Army was 165 years ago in South Carolina. And how did that work out for them and for America as a whole? All President Trump has to do is federalize the Guard, and it's game, set and match. In any case it is as plain as day for anyone with eyes to see that the Democrat/Left is indeed fomenting insurrection and attempting to touch off a Civil War or at the very least to create such a crisis, as they did with the George Floyd riots (what the hell is it with Minneapolis?!) so as to use it as a smokescreen to gain the upper hand in the coming midterms or at the very least derail the last half of President Trump's second term which so far, in both foreign and domestic policies is on track to be a raging success. Regardless of what the Fed may or may not do, the economy is recovering and in fact set to take off just in time for next November, the capture of Maduro is wildly popular and the Iranian mullahocracy which never would have come about were it not for Jimmy Carter lanting the seed and Clinton, Kerry, Obama doing all they could to keep them in power, may finally at long last be about to crumble. Yes, all the Democrats can do is all they've ever done — sow division and create a never ending string of crises to fan the flames of discontent for political cover/advantage. The Insurrection Act should indeed be invoked and whoever and whatever is behind the political terrorism must be smashed to bits. You best believe at the heart of it all is the Democrat National Committee. Have a great weekend! And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
A suspected member of the notorious Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua attempted to run over federal immigration officers in Portland, according to the Department of Homeland Security. One Border Patrol officer pulled a gun and fired a “defensive shot” at the vehicle. The suspected gang member and his passenger, also suspected of gang ties, sped off. “At 2:19 PST, US Border Patrol agents were conducting a targeted vehicle stop in Portland, Oregon. The passenger of the vehicle and target is a Venezuelan illegal alien affiliated with the transnational Tren de Aragua prostitution ring and involved in a recent shooting in Portland,” Homeland Security said. “The vehicle driver is believed to be a member of the vicious Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. When agents identified themselves to the vehicle occupants, the driver weaponized his vehicle and attempted to run over the law enforcement agents.” “Fearing for his life and safety, an agent fired a defensive shot. The driver drove off with the passenger, fleeing the scene,” the statement continued.First there is a difference between this incident and the one in Minneapolis in that the perps in Portland were actual illegal alien criminals, and knowing they faced prison and/or deportation and incarceration in a Venezuelan prison, which makes American prisons luxury resorts by comparison, naturally they, or at least the driver, had no compunction about slamming on the gas pedal to get the hell away. He and his companion had been hardcore criminal gangsters for many years before they met their end yesterday. The same can hardly be said of the now refrigerated corpse long in a coroner's meat locker somewhere up in Minneapolis. What was her excuse for winning a stupid prize for playing a stupid game? Am I splitting hairs in trying to make a distinction? Maybe, and yet. Hardened desperate criminals are going to do whatever they feel they must in order to escape and evade capture. If they feel they have nothing to lose then of course all bets are off even if it means killing a cop or an innocent bystander. Addendum: It's apparent Antifans and other Democrat approved street thugs must feel they have the political and legal cover to commit acts of political terrorism. We'll know for sure if the ICE agent who iced the terrorist in Minneapolis gets the Derek Chauvin treatment, as I suspect he might. The dead asshole in Minneapolis somehow developed a mindset wherein her thought processes had become so twisted and her morality so inverted that she thought of these criminals as Jews fleeing the SS and the gas chambers so she took up arms, or in her case an SUV, to join in her mind some sort of equivalent of a Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. Be that as it may, Her attempting to ram an Ice Agent who by the way . . .
. . . The shooting in Portland comes a day after an ICE agent fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis. The woman had blocked a road with her vehicle. As federal officers exited their vehicles and approached her vehicle, requesting she exit hers, the woman backed up before pulling her car forward. One officer in front of the car then fired a fatal shot at the woman.
The Department of Homeland Security defended the ICE agents’ conduct, calling the incident “an act of domestic terrorism.”
“This is the direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement who are facing 1,300% increase in assaults against them and an 8,000% increase in death threats,” the agency said.
The ICE agent who was forced to shoot and kill Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis on Wednesday after she tried to run him over had already survived a harrowing attack last June, when an illegal immigrant dragged him 100 yards during a traffic stop after trapping his arm in the vehicle.Yeah, big mystery why he pulled his gun and shot to kill. . . But in any event, it cannot be mere coincidence that we have a veritable plague of miscreants using automobiles, and mostly SUVs to ram ICE agents and police as they attempt to do their duty. As the great Walter Matthau quipped in The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3 regarding how the hijacker knew how to drive a subway train, "You don't pick that up just by watching Sesame Street!"
Same deal with Islamikaze bombers. And now SUV road warriors. Someone is training them.
Radical leftist groups, including one financed with $7.8 million from progressive billionaire George Soros, are behind the anti-ICE protests in Minnesota, The Post has learned. Indivisible Twin Cities, which describes itself as a grassroots group of volunteers, has led many of the protests against ICE raids in Minnesota, where Renee Nicole Good was shot dead Wednesday after allegedly trying to mow down an ICE agent with her vehicle. Indivisible is an offshoot of the Indivisible Project in Washington DC, which bills itself as a movement to defeat the “Trump agenda,” and received $7,850,000 from Soros’ Open Society Foundations between 2018 and 2023, according to public records. The controversial group was also behind recent pro-Venezuela protests and “No Kings” demonstrations against the Trump administration throughout the country last year. In addition to Indivisible Twin Cities — which does not identify its leaders on its web site — other protest leaders include the Council for American Islamic Relations, an anti-Israel group whose Minnesota chapter’s executive director Jaylani Hussein has rallied against ICE at protests. “A young observer killed in the line of observing, we believe in a peaceful manner. They are lying, as you hear today. They already shared lies about what took place,” Hussein said, speaking into a megaphone at an anti-ICE demonstration Wednesday. Good, a sometime poet, has been described by leftist sources as a “legal observer” during the residential ICE action where she died. Good, who moved from Colorado to Minnesota last year, was an anti-ICE “warrior” and a member of “ICE Watch,” a coalition of activists dedicated to disrupting ICE raids in Minneapolis, The Post recently revealed. Nekima Levy Armstrong, the founder of the Racial Justice Network, has also been a leader of the demonstrations. The Minnesota attorney and civil rights activist is one of the people helping organize the so-called “legal observers” who show up at raids throughout the city to document the federal agents’ activities, according to social media posts. She also posts information about vigils and demonstrations on her social media accounts. Armstrong played a prominent role during the protests after George Floyd was killed in Minneapolis in May, 2020, according to reports. When embattled Minnesota governor Tim Walz announced that he would not be seeking re-election amid a sprawling welfare fraud in the state earlier this week, Armstrong criticized his move as a “retreat.”
If Walz is retreating, he must be following the Wilton Parmenter definition. Retreat and reverse into victory!
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) has called up the state’s National Guard troops to assist local law enforcement as clashes between U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and violent left-wing protestors continue in Minneapolis. According to the governor’s office and a report by CNN, the National Guard will “help protect critical infrastructure and maintain public safety.”“Governor Tim Walz has authorized the Minnesota National Guard to be staged and ready to support local and state law enforcement in protecting critical infrastructure and maintaining public safety following a shooting involving federal immigration enforcement agents in south Minneapolis,” a press release issued on January 8 by Gov. Walz’s office states.The statement continues: “Executive Order 26-01 provides the ability for the Minnesota National Guard to protect critical infrastructure and to assist local law enforcement with additional tasks as requested. The state is providing additional law enforcement resources in a coordinated response to aid local law enforcement. The Minnesota State Patrol has mobilized 85 members of its Mobile Response Team to support law enforcement efforts in the Twin Cities.”
Brilliant move, Timmy. As CBD and I discussed on the latest episode of the podcast, linked here and in the sidebar as well as available on the popular outlets listed at the bottom of the post, the last time a state called out the Guard to essentially challenge the United States Army was 165 years ago in South Carolina.
