The Morning Report — 11/27/25

Good morning kids. And of course Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to you all. The big story this morning was the gunning down of National Guardsmen in the nation's capital yesterday.

One of the two West Virginia National Guard members shot in a violent ambush on Wednesday afternoon has been identified as Andrew Wolfe, according to his former high school. “Our Applemen community is deeply saddened to learn that Musselman High School alumnus, Andrew Wolfe, was one of the National Guardsmen injured in the shooting in Washington, D.C. today,” Musselman High School in West Virginia posted on Facebook. Wolfe is currently undergoing surgery and is in critical condition after Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, allegedly opened fire on him and a female National Guard member near the Farragut West Metro Station in Northwest DC in what’s being probed as a possible terrorist attack.

The evil bastard Democrats have more innocent blood on their hands. This is yet one more act of barbarism that they and they alone are responsible for. Until my last breath, all the pain, suffering dislocation and wastage of life, money and human potential that has laid us low for over 200 years is directly the fault of Democrat Leftist policy, corruption and criminality in their ongoing and never ending lust for absolute power.

Just like the victims of the Islamikaze suicide bombers in Kabul 5 years ago these deaths are directly the fault of Joe Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants Biden and whoever auto penned his signature authorizing the US military to just drop everything and bug out of Afghanistan.

In September 2021, then U.S. Senate candidate JD Vance warned that Joe Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal and reckless refugee resettlement would “create an opportunity for terrorists.” He blasted the administration for flooding America with “thousands of unvetted people,” a failure he said put Americans at risk. As the nation’s newly sworn vice president in January 2025, Vance doubled down on the warning, telling CBS, “We know that there are cases of people who allegedly were property vetted and then were literally planning terrorist attacks in our country.”
. . . The idea that these people are vetted is a lie, and we need to call out that lie. Now, if we do that of course, what they [leftists] say is “the reason you don’t want these Afghans in your community is because you are a racist.” Well, that’s not true. I don’t care about the color of their skin. Here’s what I care about — that according to Pew Research, 40 percent of people who live in Afghanistan believe that suicide bombings are an acceptable way to solve a problem. Are we allowed to say that I don’t want 100,000 people unvetted from a country where nearly half the people think suicide bombing is an OK way to solve a problem? Because I don’t want that. Shortly after being sworn in as vice president in January, Vance squared off against CBS Face the Nation’s Margaret Brennan, who claimed, “These people are vetted!” Vice President Vance responded sharply, saying, “Just like the guy who planned a terrorist attack in Oklahoma a few months ago?”

Of course the Democrat Left Media complex are in overdrive blaming, Guess Who?!

Critics are lambasting MS NOW correspondent Ken Dilanian for seemingly suggesting the suspect who critically injured two National Guardsmen near the White House was reacting to “controversy” surrounding uniformed Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in American cities.
Dilanian, a justice and intelligence correspondent for the network, pitched his two cents on the devastating shooting while on-air Wednesday afternoon.
“[O]f course, you know, there’s so much controversy happening in the United States right now with ICE, who are also wearing uniforms and wearing masks. And so there’s, you don’t know, people walking around with uniforms in an American city. There are some Americans that might object to that. And so apparently this shooting has happened,” he said during an MS NOW breaking news report.
The shooting, which law enforcement officials said was a targeted “ambush,” critically wounded two National Guardsmen, including one who was believed to be shot in the head.

Ken Dilletantian went on to blame the Jews for all the carbon emissions over the crematoria at Auschwitz during World War 2 for being a major cause of global warming.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I am so very thankful for all of you who come here every morning, as well as your prayers and good wishes for me and the spouse during a very difficult time as we now both battle some health issues. I'm fine but she's suffering.

GOd bless and keep you 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.

"And they were not grateful..."

The is the first step that begins the journey into reprobation.

On this great and beautiful day set aside of all other days to be one where people of faith can thank the Almighty for all that we have and all that will be ours when we are in Him.

18 I had a moment of awe this morning thinking of the enduring forbearance of the conservative movement in the face of the assaults, predations and murderous crimes waged against it by the Left. The long persecution of Trump including two assassination attempts, the murder of Charlie Kirk, the slaughter of little children at Christian schools, the FBI and DOJ's jihad against conservative parents, the limitless slanders of the media, the ruined lives of the J6ers -- and still no riots, no violent retaliations, nothing. Meanwhile, when a dirt-bag serial criminal is killed by a cop, the Left burns down cities. Nevermind their daily outbreaks of violence over manufactured narratives.

Is our forbearance weakness or strength?

35 “Socialism is commonly defined as ‘a social and economic system that calls for public rather than private ownership or control of property and natural resources.’

When phrased that way, the 42% doesn't bother me. I would guess that emotional "thinkers" would view public roads, schools, housing, transportation, infrastructure, hospitals - things that they interact with daily and at a commodity level, things that are usually perceived as "free" to them because it is subsidized or part of Section Ape, SNAP, etc. could not possibly let their minds wander to pure Libertarianism where the road in front of your house is private and tolled.

Those with substantial assets or equity positions in things would be shocked and horrified that the long hours of work, the years of delayed gratification were to be stolen from them and given to the local junkie a/o illegal alien.

48 The irony of course, federal agents would not have to wear masks if there weren’t a low level terrorism campaign against them and their families by leftists. “Bring the War home!” has been the strategy for decades.

49 Gratitude. The healthiest emotion.

The opposite of coveting and theft. The whole point and purpose of the Welfare State is to anonymize origin of gifts so that gratitude is either directed at an amorphous blob or isn't possible.

Without gratitude, things become entitlements.

One of the best things that I added to my life years ago, was getting up at dark-thirty to go for a 2+ mile walk where I would spend most of the time being openly grateful, enumerating everything from salvation, health, job, family, relative peace and security, etc.

Imagine if whatever you didn't specifically name in the things that you are grateful for, those things were taken from you, how long that list will be each morning.

We are blessed people, yet we don't deserve it.

55 On the first cool morning in a while, I chose to smoke my lone meerschaum pipe. It's one of those carved into a face -- in this case a Cavalier with beard and hat. The English blend I loaded it with smoked quite well, giving a hint of campfire, as English blends do. I imagine Sherlock Holmes would have smoked blends like this on cold London mornings, and probably on warm ones too.

Well, vigilantes. Which we will be informed is just horrible, “taking the law into your own hands”. I’m not sure what the more benighted members of the leftist insurgency expected. When the rule of law breaks down, every crime no matter how minor is a capital offense.

Know your history. Organized police forces are just a recent blip in the timeline. Most of human history was not a system setup for the rights of the accused, a presumption of innocence, or three hots and a cot and an attorney. You could say those are “luxury beliefs” for an affluent society. In an effluent society, all that goes out the window.

My mom would stay up late to put the 20 lb turkey in the oven around 11:00 pm and then get up early to get it out. Pies were done yesterday. Morning was for dressing (stuffing outside of the bird) and other sides. Mom would carve the turkey in the kitchen. Dinner at 1:00 pm

My mother-in-law wouldn't do that. Dinner wasn't until 4:00 pm. I hated that.

144 There's speculation Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the D.C. NG shooter worked with elements of the CIA while the US was still engaged in whatever clusterfuck we were engaged in over there.

Came to the US under *biden's "Operation Allies Welcome" program to resettle Afghans who worked with US forces/intel prior to the bugout. 2021.

Trump had nothing to do with all that. The media knows it. But... yea.

159 There was a huge push in and around the Afghan withdrawal by our military and particularly the special forces community to evac our "allies" and those who helped us during the conflict, because it was feared that the Taliban would round them all up and shoot them. Multiple episodes of Shawn Ryan podcast about this.

If this reporting is accurate, this guy fits that bill completely, so in that regard he probably was vetted, and not just some random guy, and not the classic "terrorist." It will be very interesting to learn how he got here, and who helped him.

Not a fan of the green bean casserole. I saute a chopped or thinly sliced onion in a bunch of butter, then add the fresh green beans, salt and pepper, and water (enough to steam them, gotta check occasionally to make sure they don't boil dry). Med heat for about 12-15 minutes until perfectly tender, but not mushy.

Add toasted sliced almonds if you like it that way, after you've transferred them to the serving dish.

174 Thousands of Afghans were brought to the US after the disastrous bugout under *biden's watch. We were told they were "families" who had someone working with the US while we were over there. It for their safety.

That's a lie.

Many of the Afghans brought over here were single, military aged men who were playing both sides against each other and turned to the US to help them get out of a situation that would likely result in their own death.

They're not here to integrate with society. Whether the Intel Community is still "running" some of them is debatable, but I find it more than likely they are.

227 The True Story of Thanksgiving

Rush Limbaugh: https://bit.ly/4riGcst

William Bradford, the governor of the Pilgrim community, saw that none of this was working. The Mayflower Compact was not working. Giving everybody a single share of stock in the common store, in the common bank was not working. Collectivism. It was as costly and destructive to the Pilgrims as it is and has been to anybody who has ever tried it.

So Bradford decided to scrub it. He threw it out and took bold action. He assigned a plot of land to each family. Every family was given a plot of land. They could work it, manage it however they wanted to. If they just wanted to sit on it, get fat, dumb, happy, and lazy, they could. If they wanted to develop it, if they wanted to grow corn, whatever on it, they could. If they wanted to build on it, they could do that. If they wanted to turn it into a quasi-business, they could do whatever they wanted to do with it.

He turned loose the power of the capitalist marketplace.

228 Good morning, all, and thank you, J.J.

Would be assassin, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, who may or may not have worked with the CIA in Afghanistan for several years before being brought to the US in 2021 under one of Biden's Humanitarian Parole schemes, a TPS plus?

>France 24, 'National Guard shooting suspect served alongside US army in Afghanistan: US media'

Saw a questionable "source" which wrote he served alongside U.S. Special Forces in Afghanistan for 10 years prior to his arrival, 'reportedly.' If true, he would have been quite young - a teen of +/-14 - when recruited, not necessarily stable before or after.

Also, don't forget there were all-volunteer groups of U.S. veterans, some notably referred to as "Task Force Pineapple," who conducted unofficial missions back then (2021) to help evacuate 'critically at-risk Afghans, including elite forces and their families' & bring them into the US.

Reportedly, those veterans often 'vouched' for those transported & their entry. Was their 'vetting' conducted and approved to bring individuals and families into the US, and were those individuals and families also placed automatically on slow Joe's "Humanitarian Parole?"

🤷‍♀️ Always interesting.

Anyway, I'd bet $ it's another big convoluted mess of poor or not vetting for entry into the US & lack of F/U of the entrants.

Each and everyone needs to be revetted or sent home quickly. (Btw, so many babies were born immediately after the airlift and beginning settlement in the US, it was ridiculous. And "daddy" hadn't been brought into the US yet or ever. Think about this mess alone.)

So Trump is again the BIG, unreasonable meanie because - BBC 'US suspends immigration requests for Afghans after National Guard shooting' 3 hours ago

No, vet ALL arriving from that nation and/or through EU or other countries from at least 2021. With few exceptions, all under Humanitarian Parole were to be out or leaving the US under the Biden administration.

Also, redo the vetting for each & every Ukrainian under Biden's special Humanitarian Parole program and get ready to boot many. Do not think for one minute they're not part of the press in this country constantly driving the goodness of Zelenskyy etal.

'Zelenskyy faces the biggest corruption scandal of his presidency'

A must read.

This scandal involves energy and infrastructure contracts.

In part, "On November 10, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) exposed an alleged $110 million corruption scheme at state-owned nuclear company Energoatom. The charges are supported by a fifteen-month wiretap and over seventy searches carried out as part of a major investigation called Operation Midas."

Again & again & again, scandal, missing funds, etc. and a Netflix President. Enough of this, too. End the Humanitarian Parole; end the country's young fighting age men hiding in this country and others, and end involvement with, and interference in, "honest" journalism in the US.

All, imo.

They're blasting the headline that "Trump Administration approved his asylum claim in 2025"

Implying that Trump personally approved it.

Let's grant that this happened.

Fine, then this is all the more reason that there is no reason to reassess any of these people here from the Middle East and Third World countries (and Western nations that have become Third World countries like the UK, France, Sweden, etc.). Just send them all back and ban them all from ever returning.

The vetting process is broken. Likely because there are activists in the federal government rubber stamping all these savages.

During the 10-20 year moratorium on ALL immigration, the task should be to eliminate every activist from the federal government. Only after that has been successful will immigration be considered again.

Are The Loathsome Toads a band like Toad the Wet Sprocket or more like T.O.A.D. (Theory of a Deadman)?

The ages line up well with this LinkedIn profile. If this is the same person -- absolutely nobody should let go of the USAID connection! This person spent all his life working for US NGOs ... and interned the Democrat's version of CIA

Not only if they have to go ... *IF* -- big *IF* -- this is the resume of the killer -- then he is a total product of USAID and the Democratic version of CIA. Which means the probability that the kills were engineered is nonzero. Do not let it go.

JUST IN: In a heartbreaking development, both National Guard members shot in DC were sworn in JUST 24 HOURS before the attack took place

PIRRO: "Sarah [Beckstrom] and Andrew [Wolfe] were sworn in less than 24 hours before they were shot on the street in Washington."

"to leave now we would send a message to terrorists and other potential adversaries around the world that they can change our policies by killing our people. It would be open season on Americans." -- Bill Clinton '93 just before he pulled out of Somalia.

To abandon this area now -- and to rely only on efforts against alQaeda from a distance -- would significantly hamper our ability to keep the pressure on al Qaeda, and create an UNACCEPTABLE RISK of additional attacks on our homeland and our allies. -- OBAMA'09 after doing PRECISELY THAT
