The Morning Report — 2/ 25 /25

JoySoak.jpg

Good morning kids. Following on from yesterday, what do you call it when blubber blubbers? That's what you'd be asking yourself had you tuned into MSNBC (or as I call it MSNSDAP) last night to witness the spectacle of the unceremoniously shit-canned Joy Reid emit her final cloud of toxic waste on their airwaves as streams of black-mamba-venom-laced tears flowed down the distended face that launched a thousand shits. And yet why did she get the chop while the equally hideous Zero audience murderer's row – in the case of Joe Scarborough that is especially accurate regardless of the official story in the death of his former intern – of so many others like him, Rachel Maddow and most especially Al Sharpton remain. Well, in the case of the latter, He'd have turned 30 Rockefeller Plaza into Freddies Fashion Mart 2, race riot arson boogaloo.

As stated, they have zero audience and yet look at the lineup of every major broadcast and cable network as well as the editorial board of every major newspaper and all are composed of the most strident, hardcore leftist true-believers. Regardless of Reid's departure and supposed attempts to stem the hemorrhaging of viewers and subscribers, it's never going to work because of the media's innate and preternatural hatred of the very people they have alienated for years. The very fact that an Al Sharpton has daily access and visibility on American airwaves let alone is pimped as some sort of rational, American voice of reason and moderation when he and his sewer-lid medallion and Morris Day hairdo should have been rotting in prison for a litany of crimes, fraud and violence means something else is afoot here.

As I have often stated, I am a firm believer in the first amendment right of free speech as well as in the free market. What I detest are those who palm themselves off as journalists when they are naked shameless partisan hacks. If someone wants to be a pundit and editorialize, hey no problem but admit it and let the chips fall where they may. Whatever is wrong with Fox News these days, not so very long ago they counterbalanced someone like Sean Hannity with the late Alan Colmes. Meh, basta cosi. I think the point has been made, but the media's mission is not the honest reportage of news nor is it a balanced presentation of both sides of an issue via pundits and editorials. It is the advancement of the Leftist/globalist agenda along with the concomitant transmogrification of the American government as a massive centralized bureaucracy to further that aim. Even the rejection of Jimmy Carter in 1980 and the coming of Ronald Reagan is nothing compared to the emergence of Donald Trump, especially this time around and most especially with what he has exposed and is now taking a wrecking ball to via DOGE.

Trust in American media had been on a sharp decline for years and is only accelerating, while at the same time the MAGA agenda's popularity is skyrocketing across a broad swathe of society, and not merely conservatives.

It's why stories like this are laughable while in a sense encouraging.

“I’ll be blunt here: The Democratic Party is f***ing terrible. Plain and simple,” a major Democrat donor told The Hill. “In fact, it doesn’t get much worse.”

The donor said that the 2024 loss was much worse than the loss in 2016 because the party is currently “so weak and so diminished.”

A second donor told the publication that they were equally as turned off about the party.

“They want us to spend money, and for what? For no message, no organization, no forward thinking,” the donor said. “The thing that’s clear to a lot of us is that the party never really learned its lesson in 2016. They worked off the same playbook and the same ineffective strategies and to what end?”

Well, Mr. Moneybags anonymous Democrat Party donor, What is the Party? In the end the party is what it and its base stand for.

In this case, everything that is wrong with this country and everything that has brought us virtually to our knees since the New Deal, ramped up with the Great Society, Obama/Biden. Everyone and everything you have donated money to and for are responsible for the misery, suffering and waste of blood, treasure lives and potential.

Considering that unless and until the GOP gets behind the MAGA agenda and does a mea culpa for decades of get-along to go-along bipartisanship and worse, a place at the trough to wet their snouts, hold on to your money.

Then examine everything you believe in and admit that open borders, sexualization of our children, a massive welfare state, promotion of abortion, the shredding of our Constitutional freedoms, the continued brainwashing of our children that America as founded is irredeemably racist white supremacist/misgynist etc. etc, acquiescence to the march of Isam abroad and here are wrong and dangerous in the extreme, then you will have learned your lesson of 2016.


In short, the Leopard will have to change its spots. Not going to happen. Given this leopard is evil and seeks absolute power by any means necessary. Because the evil that defines it needs to see us destroyed ignorer to achieve its aims.

Maybe, Mr. Anonymous Donor should have a little conversation with Bro-Fo Omar about calling Trump voters idiots. Of with Chuck Schumer or Robert Garcis, elected officials for publicly threatening Musk as well as SCOTUS justices along with Trump himself.

Acting United States Attorney Ed Martin of the District of Columbia replied to a post Monday showing a video of a woman calling for the assassination of Tesla CEO and White House Senior Advisor Elon Musk.

Martin previously opened probes into Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York and Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia of California over allegedly threatening comments they made about Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and U.S. Supreme Court justices, CBS News reported. The TikTok user admitted to not filing her taxes for eight years before she called for Musk’s murder in a video reposted to X by LibsofTikTok. . .

. . . “I promised myself I would avoid the news,” the woman, who goes by the username “sarahcroberts” on the since-deleted account, said. “But obviously, I haven’t. Here’s my one thought – I have many thoughts – Elon Musk,” before making a gesture that appeared to mimic cutting a throat. “Like when you do X him, and by X, I mean formally mean assassination and it’s a warning from the FBI is going to fucking show up, I don’t… arrest me,” the user said. “You don’t have enough people to even investigate me at this point. I haven’t filed my taxes in like… eight years and yet no one’s come for me, so I’m going to fucking say it. Let’s assassinate some motherfuckers.”

And there is your Democrat base, my friends.

Staving Off Financial Ruin For The MSM, A Plan:

Step 1: Select a single source (ABC, CNN, NYT, doesn't matter) and all outlets direct their viewers/readers there.
Step 2: Battle Royale between all the "talent" to determine who will be employed at the survivor. Bonus points for making this PPV and only permitting bludgeoning weapons.
Step 3: Every year, on New Year's Eve, announce who is the least popular talent and force them to ritually disembowel themselves on live TV.

15 I think one of the reasons Joe and Mika are still on MSNBC is because back in November, after the election, they went to Mar-a-Lago to "kiss Trump's ring." It was advertised as a "reset" but they went down there to plead for their jobs. Probably promised they'd do more "puff pieces" on Trump in exchange for the incoming administration to go lightly on the pair.

Others, like Reid, and those preceding her who were antagonistic towards Trump (personally) and refused to chill out... are being chilled out anyway. The threat of massive lawsuits seems to have that sort of effect.

YMMV

Posted by: Martini Farmer at February 25, 2025 07:42 AM (Q4IgG)

16 I enjoyed the clip on X where Trump explains the purpose of the “5 things” email; which is exactly what I’ve been trying to say here whenever it comes up. It has *nothin” to do with the actual answer given (unless its an intentionally vulgar one, I suppose) but rather, it is a ping sent out to see which employees actually exist, and which are just fraudulent names and accounts soaking up a check each month.
So of course it doesn’t matter if Kash exempts his department, because he’s capable of determining for himself if his people exist or not. This query is meant to ferret out thousands of names that exist only in the shadows, but which still collect a check each month.

29 When angry voters confronted Rep. Rich McCormick over DOGE at a town hall held in the Georgia Republican's deep-red district, the New York Times, Washington Post, and CBS News cited the scene as proof of emerging bipartisan "backlash" over Elon Musk's efforts to slash government spending. CBS included a quote from one of the protest's organizers, Maggie Goldman, describing her only as a McCormick constituent.

A self-described "Democrat & Political Activist," Goldman, who did not respond to a request for comment, coordinated volunteers for Pete Buttigieg's presidential campaign in 2019 and 2020, according to her LinkedIn. Shortly thereafter, she ran for her local county commission as a Democrat seeking to enact a "more inclusive policy agenda." Goldman has donated exclusively to Democrats and sent Kamala Harris's campaign more than $1,500 last year, according to campaign finance records.

43 So of course it doesn’t matter if Kash exempts his department, because he’s capable of determining for himself if his people exist or not.

Perhaps, but Kash may be doing a divide and conquer on his profoundly dysfunctional agency. With the order to ship off hundreds of the misfits into scoggin country, he apparently knows who needs to be humiliated and driven out. The "We Got This" is a chance to endear himself with what few good apples remain in the whole rotten bucket.

Kash is looking out for his people and segregating out those who need to be gone. I hope that there is a third list of those who are on the fast track to prison.

The new story today is that the IC, if they lose their jobs they will go running to our nation's enemies and give them classified intel. In other words, we have ready-made traitors who have abused their oaths and clearances and are blackmailing We The People for us to continue to allow them the ability to do more damage from within (while receiving pay, promotions, benefits and lavish pension)

Inflation is a monetary policy issue, not a fiscal one. It has nothing to do with how much you spend or don't spend. It had everything to do with how loose or tight you keep the money supply. Too much money and you have inflation and low interest rates. Too little and you get the reverse.

How much you do or don't spend is a fiscal impact. Spend a lot and you're higher up the demand curve and prices increase accordingly. Spend a little and you move down the demand curve and prices decrease. The idiocy of the Biden admin was trying to tell people that the inflation they were seeing was just a bunch of people in their new jobs with their high paychecks buying up everything. That's bull

Never confuse a supply/demand shift with a monetary one.

And yes, this all oversimplifies things a bit (deflation, government intervention, etc etc) but for discussion purposes this is the grounding of what inflation is...nothing to do with spending, everything to do with money supplies.

***
In the '60s and early '70s, our local supermarket chain (think Walmart long before Walmart) had a small bar on the premises. Dad could have a beer and smoke a ciggie or two while Mom and the kids did the grocery shopping. Nobody worried about drinking and driving -- which is good for freedom, but maybe not so good for other drivers and your passengers. Anyway, the supermarket and the state left it up to an adult to decide.

The biggest location of the chain had a classic barbershop upstairs, along with insurance offices and other businesses, and a TV lounge where Mom could park the kids for an hour of cartoons while she shopped.

147 "The FBI is working day and night to destroy files on these servers. Can't be restored. I'm sure there's info about Epstein and subversion against Americans."

I'm thinking that this is bullshit.

Anything stored on a server is also replicated on another in a different area in case the primary is taken out by storm, terrorism, fire, etc.

So they also wreck any one of the replicated servers.

What about be off-site backups and archives?

To do this requires a lot of coordination and now turns into a RICO because it is a conspiracy involving multiple teams and their leadership.

And that assumes that they self-host, which I'm not sure to believe because AWS/Azure keeps getting three letter contracts to manage cloud data.

“Like sort of the dialect around oligarchs and sort of whatever else, it’s…like, when I think of the kids, like the 12 year old girl that can't get an abortion or something, that’s what really rips me apart. But this is America,” she rambled.

===========================
No idea who Natasha Lyonne is (is that a real name?) but she better have a great rack because her brain isn't going to pay the bills.

201 Listening Devices Found in Oval Office—President’s Desk Removed for Security Scan

Washington, D.C. – February 21, 2025

In a shocking revelation that has sent ripples through Washington, sources within the White House have confirmed that the Oval Office—including the historic Resolute Desk—was subjected to a high-level security sweep following suspicions of covert surveillance.

The sweep reportedly uncovered sophisticated listening devices, leading to the immediate removal of the President’s desk for a comprehensive off-site scan.

A senior official, speaking anonymously, revealed that the discovery followed routine electronic countermeasures that detected unusual signals. “The anomalies were subtle but consistent—enough to trigger a full investigation,” the source said. “We couldn’t risk compromising the integrity of the President’s workspace.”

Specialized teams using cutting-edge radiofrequency detection technology were dispatched, and initial findings allegedly pointed to concealed audio surveillance devices hidden within the office.

The Resolute Desk, gifted by Queen Victoria in 1880, was transported to a secure, undisclosed location for thorough inspection.

Posted by: Ordinary American at February 25, 2025 08:10 AM (UseAb)


1. Trump cannot unilaterally disband USAID as it was created by an act of Congress, specifically the "Foreign Affairs Reform and Restructuring Act of 1998".
2. It is questionable if Trump can move USAID under State as the aforementioned act reportedly made it an "independent establishment" outside of State although no mention is given as to whether a general cabinet level overseer was named.
3. If Congress fails to do their jobs, or acts in a corrupt manner, all the various agencies rot will once again metastasize. Nothing Trump can do can absolutely prevent that.

The idea that a general employee would have the access rights necessary to delete files from the backup strikes me as even MORE unlikely.

I suspect that files are being deleted from the servers. Backups of those files will be retrieved and the identity of the malefactors determined. That's when the fun begins.

232 Imagine you're a FBI computer nerd working in some basement datacenter and your smarmy boss tells you to wipe the data associated with this, that or the other thing. Given that you're peripherally aware of what's been going down, do you start deleting stuff?

Or, would you make a half hearted attempt at it hoping that moving stuff around so it appears to be gone to your boss, and his boss, is enough to keep you out of trouble.

Unless you're down with the struggle. Then you'd get out the cloth and start wiping, right?

I think there's room for both situations... but neither of those scenarios started yesterday or today. They would have been ongoing since November 7th.

Trump has laid that deception bare and naked.

And yet, when they rattle off the list of Merz's priorities, it's a Trump/MAGA laundry list. Increase military spending amounts of NATO partners. Friendlier towards nuclear power. Restricting immigration (and even offshoring holding of migrants in Africa). Even the desire to have Europe step up and more vigorously defend Ukraine as the US steps back, while dumb, fits with Trump's policy of it being a European matter.

AfD may not have won, but they have the moribund European globalist Establishment scared and, at least paying lip-service to Nationalist priorities.

Then Z gets all crazy when Trump comes back with an offer that doesn't get him any security against the Russians.

In Ukraine though the military hasn't grown that much even with us giving them a whole economy. I don't think the Russians have killed *that* many Ukes so where are all those patriotic Uke men?

Going through check-out this morning I saw People magazine with a wholesome Alec Baldwin cover story about how he's suffered the last year, but he's getting better.

Then came home to read that he threatened to break some impersonator's neck.

Exactly. SS procedure (per Bongino) is to always sweep areas before the arrival of the POTUS; one would expect that to routinely include the White House and the Oval Office.

BTW, just as with Epstein's client list: when are we going to finally learn the identity of who left the cocaine in The White House?

Exactly. It's a live action equivalent to a Classic Disney animation. Aimed and enjoyed mostly by children, but with nuggets here and there to keep parents watching somewhat entertained.

Not to be confused with the ACTUAL live-action remakes of Classic Disney Animated films, which are just nightmare fuel.

Yup, or a message to someone.
The idea that Trump wasn't sweeping for bugs, etc. as soon as he had access to the WH is laughable. He's just survived to assassination attempts and lord know what other attempts to stop him behind the scenes.

In a subsequent section,6601 (d), it allows abolition of AID, with State Dept assuming duties. The particular 1997 law that is in your hotlink was vetoed. So Congress came up with the new law in 1998.

448 As you read all these crazy stories coming out, "they couldn't be that stupid?"

Remember:
They are.

They only win/won because:
1) they have a massive, overwhelming advantage in media and money (our money)
2) 90% of Republicans were content to go-along.

449 >>Lurid sex chats among NSA agents exposed as intel chief Tulsi Gabbard vows to punish workers posting about 'kinks, fetishes and polyamory'


Punish?

How about some transparency - publish the chats, publicly fire?

I don't know how we go from celebrating Anita Hill, mandatory corporate sexual harassment awareness training for 30+ years, pussy hat marches and #MeToo #TimesUP to hey, it's totally ok to use a WORK communication tool to discuss your darkest, most deviant (and in some cases, illegal) sexual kinks.

450 Hours after his party’s victory in Germany’s federal elections, likely incoming chancellor Friedrich Merz began to soften his stance on immigration as he looks to form a coalition with leftist parties rather than the anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany.

While Merz campaigned as a supposed immigration hardliner, the successor to Angela Merkel as the leader of the Christian Democrats and the likely next leader of the country appears to be following the tradition of notionally right-wing politicians abandoning their election-time promises once the votes have been counted.

452 "Wrecking ball" my ass. They're putting on a show and you're not supposed to notice that spending, debt, and inflation are higher now than they were last year.

453 The chairman of the Federal Communications Commission scaled an 1,865-foot tall broadcast tower on Monday, which he filmed and posted to X.

"If we are going to continue to expand connectivity we need a lot more tower climbers. It’s a great job. It’s a good-paying job and it’s a career," said Carr, who strapped on a harness and took at 20-minute ride in a lift called a "pan," before transferring to the tower.

It’s another case where observations don’t match the script.

456 Six weeks ago, the BBC’s climate soothsayers were gazing into 2025 with their trademark blend of gloom and green idealism. Their January 7 piece, “From Trump to a ‘Game-Changing’ Lawsuit: Seven Big Climate and Nature Moments Coming in 2025,” sketched a year of UN lawsuits, lofty CO2 targets, and global summits—all set to “shift the dial” on warming. They gave Trump’s return a nervous glance, hinting his Paris exit might “hinder climate action,” but banked on technocrats and NGOs to keep the faith. Then the Trump juggernaut roared in, flattening their predictions in under two months. Now, with NGOs in the crosshairs, the rubble’s still smoking. What a difference six weeks make.

461 Any plans for Gaza should include a nice chunk of land set aside for a new United Nations Headquarters,
and get the UN out of the US.
Way more pros than cons.
