The Morning Report — 8/26/25

Good morning kids. As you may know, a hack-in-black has blocked the deportation of illegal alien violent savage criminal, (MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator) Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda, so he can be set free on our soil to go and Kill More innocent Americans.

Meanwhile despicable reprobate and tearjerking jerkoff Adam Kinzinger opened his exhaust port and emitted this noxious flatus:

Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) said Monday CNN’s “The Lead” that deploying the National Guard to every city over “so-called crime” was how dictators take control.

Funny, considering every Democrat controlled city and county is essentially a socialist dictatorship with honest citizens terrified by rampant crime in the streets and corrupt politicians fleecing them dry. Regardless of what the Kinzingers of this world claim, President Trump's moves to both bolster law enforcement by calling up the National Guard as well as round up as many illegal aliens and deport them are wildly popular with sane Americans. Since illegal aliens and native born criminals are protected by and used as political cover if not the vanguard of Democrat Leftist power and control, it's no wonder that Democrats are protesting and indeed attempting to sabotage the restoration of law and order to America's streets.

Democrat Mayor Barbara Lee of Oakland, California, boasted Monday during the Democrat National Committee’s summer meeting that the city defies federal immigration law.

Why has this she-beast not been shackled in leg irons and dragged off to the nearest hoosegow and prosecuted for insurrection?

With all of that said, this move by the President just makes no sense to me, both politically as well as in national security terms:

President Donald Trump said on Monday that he will allow 600,000 students from China to study in the U.S. Trump said in June that allowing Chinese students to attend U.S. schools would be beneficial as long as they did not pose a national security risk. The president stated during Monday’s Oval Office event with South Korean President Lee Jae Myung that he will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping to continue the “very important relationship” between the U.S. and China.

Red China is hell bent on global domination and as such has represented an existential threat to our national security for decades. Chinese emigrés, students and others have infiltrated our universities and the private sector including and most dangerously our most sensitive high-tech industries for the purposes of spying and sabotage. They arguably pose as much of a threat to our safety and security as however many Kilmar Abrego Garcias roaming our cities peddling drugs, weapons and whatever else. 600,000 potential Chi-Com saboteurs given carte blanche is insane Mr. President.

Meanwhile, on a more positive note this story makes me go hmmm:

Democratic think tank Third Way published a memo to “All Who Wish to Stop Donald Trump and MAGA” on Friday. It’s dawned on them that Democrats could more easily connect with voters if they would simply stop using “words and phrases no ordinary person would ever dream of saying.”
The intent of this language is to include, broaden, empathize, accept, and embrace. The effect of this language is to sound like the extreme, divisive, elitist, and obfuscatory, enforcers of wokeness. To please the few, we have alienated the many—especially on culture issues, where our language sounds superior, haughty and arrogant.
Reminiscent of the constant revisions to the “Newspeak Dictionary” in George Orwell’s 1984, the memo features 45 words and phrases that Democrats should stop using immediately if they want to prevent voters from leaving the party. Frankly, it’s amazing they even need to be told.

If the Democrat strategists are warning politicians to mind not their P's andQ's but their :GBT's and Q's lest they alienate the electorate, it's not a sign of strength and confidence on their part. As politics is downstream from the culture, it seems an indicator, at least to me, that they're losing the culture war. Interesting or coincidental that President Trump is thinking about changing the name of the Defense department back to The War Department comes on the same day as this warning from Democrat think-tankers.

And lest we forget that it was five years ago that Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants and his handlers pulled the plug and bugged out of Afghanistan, pissing on the graves of thousands of servicemen who gave their lives needlessly in that Islamic hellhole and causing the needless deaths of 13 of their comrades when an Islamikaze usicide bomber blew them up in the Abbey Gate attack.

God bless them all.

And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

Have a great day!

Everyday voters are fed up with years of finger-wagging and language policing, and the left has finally woken up to this reality.

27 The big scientific discovery here is that this interstellar comet is so much like comets that come from our own solar system. The implication is that other solar systems have great similarities to our own.

The Copernican Principle is raw miseotheism that relies on being innumerate. and profoundly ignorant - yet that is the foundation for exploring our universe.

The Drake Equation, which was cobbled together to narrow down places for SETI to eavesdrop is an example of huge amounts of ignorance in a compact expression.

What it does do is focus the mind on the impossibility of life anywhere else in the cosmos, and there is likely no other solar system like ours anywhere in the universe. When they conjecture that this looks like a comet from this solar system but is not from this system, they are showing their ass in that they live in fantasy, not reality.

147 Interesting.

Conservatives often say invoking comparisons to Hitler by pundits on the left leads to inevitable violence against Republicans politicians, and yet here we see the same tactic employed.

It's difficult to tell whether it's because the purveyor of the premise is disingenuous in their belief that the comparison induces violence, or whether it's just an example of the same intellectual laziness that seems to be so pervasive among our liberal opponents.

History is replete with bad actors of all levels of iniquity and of all persuasion. The Reducto ad Hitlerum routine is unimaginative, and the many pundits almost seem to fetishize it.

Just as Millennials are often reminded that there is literature other than Harry Potter, one would be well reminded that there are periods of history other than the Weimar Republic.

This is really disconcerting. Cornyn is a rotten GOP-e swamp creature and Trump should know this already. But he seems to have an Achilles heel when it comes to these Republican congressmen and senators (I'm looking at you, Lindsey Graham) who need to GO. They've all been there for so long and they do nothing to move the needle to the right, or do much of anything to help Trump with his agenda. It should be obvious, but for him, he has a blind spot. Let's hope Texans make the right decision irrespective of who he gets behind.

The US is fully incapable of providing these products ourselves. There just isn't enough STEM talent. The US labor pool specializes in substance abuse and video gaming.

Taiwan reluctantly is making some chips in the US but is complaining that the labor, such as it is, costs way too much; our regulations and taxes are crippling and the supply chain is unreliable, too small and crap.

If the 600,000 Chinese student/spies stay in the US to act as engineers and scientists (much of the existing talent are retiring or retired Boomers and Gen-X) then there is a slight chance these industries can perform at a slightly better than theater level, but the culture of the US is pure consumer, not producer.

214 "Dog Days"

From the Old Farmer's Almanac:

The Dog Days of Summer run from July 3 to August 11 each year. Far more than a modern saying, the phrase comes from ancient skywatchers who noticed that the brightest star, Sirius, rose with the Sun during this period. For centuries, this hot part of summer has carried both astronomical meaning and layers of folklore.

I seriously doubt Trump's endorsement of Cornyn (should it happen) would have a material effect on the race. It's probably why he's staying quiet on it.

On the one hand, Trump has a better relationship with Senate leadership, so making an outward enemy of the ~~#2 guy in the GOP caucus~~ I keep thinking he's in leadership, but he's not anymore, still he's tied to it because of his seniority and former position would just be bad politics.

On the other, Paxton seems to have made himself something of a political celebrity in Texas, so there may just be no stopping him.

I imagine there have been private conversations where Trump's people have told Cornyn that an endorsement would only come if it looked like he was going to win.

If Apple wanted to make their iPhones in the US, they would need thousands of mechanical and electrical engineers. In China, you will have them lining up around the building the day after posting the job req. In the US, it would take years and they would have to cannibalize other businesses for those same engineers.

The US can't do it at scale. That is why the high level designs are still handled in the US, but the talent to actually make the products is mostly overseas.

He told me he did not want me to enlist, as they would half assed train me and ship me to Viet Nam as cannon fodder, and they were going to pull out and make all those boys die for nothing.

The Founders knew all that would happen, because they had already been Englishmen in a past life. It's why we have a Constitution instead of Common Law.

And it's why Article III explicitly kneecapped the judiciary.

Practically everything these Courts have ever done is a naked arrogation of powers that don't belong to them.

IMHO republicans are way too slow to act on this. Impeachment is the only tool unless they start to legislate power back to SCOTUS. Communists like the Soros crowd know this. They figure their judges and DA’s can hold back and do enough harm until things change. I realize it’s hard for people to conceptualize there is an active opposition whose objective is to destroy our government and replace it with tyranny. But they need to wake up a bit to the reality. That’s not hyperbole. It’s demonstrable fact.

"Hmmm. Interesting. Well, maybe it's time for a new law like this because of the legal punishments of people expressing their first amendment rights with the Pride flag."

Becuz...

Then we would see all the progtard idiots/politicians falling into the trap laid by burning the Stars and Stripes and honoring the pride flag which would make great and hilarious commercials.

18 Howbeit that he made the greater star; as, also, if there be two spirits, and one shall be more intelligent than the other, yet these two spirits, notwithstanding one is more intelligent than the other, have no beginning; they existed before, they shall have no end, they shall exist after, for they are gnolaum, or eternal.

Posted by: It's me donna at August 26, 2025 08:55 AM (VE6XX)

They are an eyesore at night, too. I recently drove past a huge windfarm at night for the first time. In south Texas. Each windmill is required to have very bright red anti-collision lights. All of them in a farm blink in unison - also an FAA requirement.

When I first saw an endless stream on blinking red lights I had no idea what it was? Airfield was all I could think of. As I got closer it dawned on me it was a windmill farm with anti-collision lights on each.

Reading about it I learned locals across the country are pushing back hard against these large areas of elevated bright red lights blinking from dusk till dawn. Distracting, ruining quality of life after dark, attracts bats - killing some, and more bad effects

So efforts have been underway for a time to have the lights activate only when radar detects an large aerial object in proximity. I do not know if the FAA has approved these.

Original sin in Christian theology refers to the condition of sinfulness that all humans share, which is inherited from Adam and Eve due to the Fall, involving the loss of original righteousness and the distortion of the Image of God. The biblical basis for the belief is generally found in Genesis 3, and in texts such as Psalm 51:5 and Romans 5:12–21.

If they scrub today for whatever reason, don't be surprised if they stand-down for a day to give the launch team a break. Usually done in the Shuttle Program after three days of attempts in a row. Depends how hard Elon pushes his people.

366 I dunno. You signed a sworn statement on an application which states outright any false statement is punishable by law. Most of those documents are notarized. You swear the property for which the loan is being taken is your primary residence in order to get a more favorable rate, and in some states better tax treatment (subject for another day because there could be state charges but if it’s a Blue State they won’t file). Conclusively you lied and that’s demonstrable because you are living in another state and have another property. Average people get pegged for this all the time, and get penalized. This isn’t very hard to understand, even for the mouth breathers in the media. But yet, here they are talking about the end of democracy. You have to laugh.

We are non-Gods made to be like God but not too much like God.

It isn't about guilt. It's about composition.

It's necessary. It's unfair. And our atonement through Calvary is also the Lord's atonement to us for all of it.

377 But here's the thing Lutnick doesn't clarify: The Chinese students aren't going to the bottom 15% of colleges; they're going to the top 5%--the Ivies. That displaces 600,000 American students who would like to go to those top schools and forces them down to lesser schools. That bottom 15% is filled with American kids. But Lutnick doesn't say that.
===================
It may be even worse than you say. I haven't added it up but the eight Ivies probably take about 70,000 undergrads in the aggregate, and in all four years. If they target 20% foreign students, that's 14,000 at any one time. Add in the other top schools (MIT, Cal Tech, Stanford, Berkeley etc etc), maybe another 100,000 foreign students. From all countries.

If they admit as many Chinese kids as Lutnick states, it sounds to me like those kids are going to be going to schools all over the map and at all levels.

389 The 2022 CHIPS and Science Act provided for $11 billion in semiconductor research and development funding to be given out by the Commerce Department’s National Semiconductor Technology Center.

“Rather than establishing these operations within the Department, however, Biden Administration officials spent significant time, effort, and resources creating an unaccountable, outside entity–Natcast–to administer taxpayer funds,” Lutnick wrote Natcast CEO Deirdre Hanford.

Four days before Biden left office on Jan. 20, Lutnick noted, the Commerce Department agreed to set aside $7.4 billion in “advance payments” to Natcast after spending nearly two years setting it up and tapping administration officials, advisers and allies to fill out positions.

399 Re. The Screw Worm:
As a young man, my dad (God comfort him) was a real honest-to-goodness ranch hand / hat-AND-cattle cowboy riding the New Mexico / (Old) Mexico border. Old Mexico is what New Mexican and Texans call Mexico, so there is not confusion in a conversation.
One of his responsibilities was to cut out cows that were infected by the screw worm, bust them down so he could work on them, and using a twig would dig out the screw worms in the wounds or eyes of the cattle, then pour chloroform into the open wound to kill anything he missed and disinfect the wound.
If the eye infestation was bad enough he wound cut the eyelid back with his pocket knife and sew the eye closed.
He well remembers the eradication of the screw worm fly as a very good thing.
Sonoran style enchiladas with a fried egg on top is real border food. Fight me.
