Getting what you ask for before Christmas, or not
What an incredible accomplishment to make this Epstein stuff seem like the height of elite decadence. While a thousand Caligulas party on.
Matt Taibbi & Walter Kirn talk about Jeffrey Epstein texting Stacey Plaskett questions to ask Michael Cohen during a February 2019 House hearing with the goal to sink Donald Trump. The wheels are about to completely come off the bus.I haven't really checked into what has been found in the redacted grand jury files. Anybody seen anything interesting?

Weekend The Week in Pictures: Return of the King Edition
Okay, John Hinderaker went and did it last week! He has abused his stewardship of TWiP and went full Die Hard Christmas Movie Denialist! As the Dude says in The Big Lebowski, this aggression will not stand, man! To restore proper balance in the universe, I am staging a coup d’tat, and am taking over this week’s TWiP. To mix movie references further, John has done a Denethor-level job as Steward of TWiP; time for the Return of the (TWiP) King! Actually, like the Gaza and (prospective) Ukraine ceasefires, we’re going to share power, and alternate TWiP each week. And so as the great John McClain would say on basic cable Christmas season reruns, “Yippie-ki-yay, melon-farmer!” P.S. Good to see John back covering beauty pageants as straight news (which fits as Melania Trump’s cause as First Lady should be “Make America Straight Again!”, as it was this old practice that partly inspired TWiP in the first place way back in—eeek—2013.
The story about Henry Wadsworth Longfellow writing the poem in both despair and hope as he heard the bells.In 1861, two years before writing this poem, Longfellow's personal peace was shaken when his second wife of 18 years, to whom he was very devoted, was fatally burned in an accidental fire. Then in 1863, during the American Civil War, Longfellow's oldest son, Charles Appleton Longfellow, joined the Union Army without his father's blessing. Longfellow was informed by a letter dated March 14, 1863, after Charles had left. "I have tried hard to resist the temptation of going without your leave but I cannot any longer", he wrote. "I feel it to be my first duty to do what I can for my country and I would willingly lay down my life for it if it would be of any good." Charles was soon appointed as a lieutenant but, in November, he was severely wounded in the Battle of Mine Run. Charles eventually recovered, but his time as a soldier was finished.

Well, the left is certainly "in a mood." Not a good one either. It's going to get worse if/when they reclaim the House next year.
The GOP never learns that there is no end to fighting the left. The only "end" is when the Democrat party as it is today is neutered and useless.
Like the GOP.

My family and I are at AmericaFest as invited guests.
The people I have met are truly incredible, but the speakers... ...I'm just really disappointed.
A Leftist ass*ssinated Charlie Kirk in front of the world and all conservatives can do is yell at each other on stage.
Charlie is gone. Not “canceled.” Not “deplatformed.” Dead.
And yet somehow a bunch of people have managed to turn the aftermath into a talent show for who can land the sharpest jab on a fellow conservative.
If we can’t pause the ego wars after that… what exactly are we conserving here?
It feels like a lot of these famous podcasters are eating the conservative movement for engagement.
I'm genuinely grossed out by it.

It's gross watching people who claim to love America act like the real enemy is the person sitting two seats to their right.
Charlie built a movement by arguing, persuading, recruiting, showing up on campuses, and pulling people INTO the movement.
And now people on a stage, who clearly despise each other, are yelling at each other and dunking on each other.
Can we just sit with the absurdity of that?
Meanwhile, the people who want us dead aren’t arguing about which one of them is the purest.
They’re organized. They’re disciplined. They’re watching the Right turn the microphone on each other.
There’s a difference between iron sharpening iron... ...and stabbing your teammate in the back because it sounds bold and gets claps.

I’m new to the conservative movement. I didn’t grow up in this world. I’m not “conservative royalty.” I’m not a strategist. I’m not a speaker.
I’m not even close to deserving an invited seat at something like this, and I'm grateful to be here. I have massive imposter syndrome. I’m the guy who got red-pilled late, who showed up late, and probably still has blind spots I’m probably not even aware of yet.
So I’m not saying this as someone who thinks he has the authority to lecture anyone, I don't. I'm nobody.
I’m saying this as someone who’s standing here with his family, looking around at people I respect... and just feeling sad.
Sad that a moment that should have made all of us a little more sober, somehow turned into fighting like this.

Willowed: I cannot (so far) find an "early list" that lists him, the Bishop of Myra, as a Niceae attendee. And if he slapped Arius, it likely would have been mentioned. I am continuing to search.

"Bible scholars" are the only profession built around discrediting their alleged subject. They regularly demand impossible standards of proof that standard historians would consider laughable.
Accounts of Nicea are fragmentary, and since we have no parliamentary record-style journal, we don't know what they thought was important. What we do know is that the vast majority of records from that period were lost. We also know that some likely survived and then were lost years, even centuries later.
This is why discounting documents from later on is unwarranted. They may have had access to books we don't even know about.
When one considers how many "established facts" rely on fragmentary records, it's always amusing to me that "Bible scholars" demand the equivalent of their subjects holding up the day's newspaper in a photograph to give credence to ancient writings.

Maybe I’m naive. Maybe I’m expecting too much. But I remember what it felt like when I started waking up for the first time... The insane excitement, the hope, for the FIRST TIME understanding truth...
So I'm BEGGING you, as a newcomer to this movement... DON'T LET THAT DIE.
I know I don’t have the resume to demand anything from this movement. But I do have eyes. I can see the difference between leadership and clout-chasing. And I can see how easy it would be for people...
GOOD PEOPLE... ...to watch us devour each other and just go: “Yeah… I’m out.”
So if I’m wrong... fine. I'll take the heat, I'm still learning and I know very little.
But I feel like the least we can do is not make Charlie's legacy a backdrop for petty infighting and instead act like we are movement worth joining without fear of being excommunicated for getting it wrong.

By the way, the "contemporaneous record is the gold standard" argument is NEVER used in regard to Islam.
That's the "tell." There is zero documentation of this alleged great conqueror who set the world aflame. The Greeks were famously curious about everyone and everything, and loved to write about their adversaries. We have first-hand accounts of people meeting and having dinner with just about every major figure, including the enigmatic Atilla the Hun. Why didn't anyone write about Mohammed's table manners for 150 years?

We do have grifters on our side who are in it only for themselves and will attack people on our side to get engagement. Many such cases. But the bigger problem is the people on our side who are simply clueless about how politics works. All fire should always be directed at the other side. The left never attacks its own. Eric Swalwell, Ilhan Omar, that loon that was running for Congress from Nashville and said she hated everything about it, Mamdani. They don't care. Blue no matter who! Between the grifters, the controlled opposition, and the self-directed fire, it is a wonder the right ever wins.

Am fest is the culmination of the year long schism in the “conservative” (whatever that means anymore) movement. It’s two movements now.
There’s America First which is what Trump purported to be but really has t been.
And then there’s the pretend to be America First but really it’s about globalism like always movement.
One side is calling the other side Nazis. Which is very original, nobody has ever called a conservative a Nazi before. Very fresh and bold ideas guys.

I have a quibble with Scott. Although Bernie votes with Dems, he is not himself a Dem, so it's slightly weak to say his actions represent the Dem party. But only slightly.
To Scott's overall point, Bernie does indeed embody the Dem principle of "somebody somewhere is not suffering enough and we must fix that." I do not understand why that is so attractive to so many people. I guess they think martyrdom makes people good, when in fact a person is a martyr when they were already good and then made to suffer for it.
Anyway, there are some people I wish I could shake some sense into.

Ace hammering Candace is just like his frequent mentions of David French and Jonah Goldberg - a lifeline to her fading influence. Nick Fuentes' entire audience is built on being hated. Take that away, ignore him, dismiss him as "Who?" and he loses his cache.
Conservatives keep doing this. It's a form of retardation. When the left brings up David Duke, WE MUST DENOUNCE HIM, rather than saying: "What are you talking about? Is he even alive? Get bent, loser."

In the modern UK, beer is still a commoner's drink, and mead is for rural weirdos (same with cider).
Wine is for the upper class because it had to be imported at considerable expense. Farage frequently quaffing a beer makes him a man of the people.

I didn't ask anyone for anything for Christmas. I want nothing and expect nothing. Keeps disappointment at bay. Besides, the things I genuinely want are not material goods. Things like a purpose, stronger sense of self, meeting goals in this declining portion of my life. Baubles and tchotchkes don't really cover it.

But the bigger problem is the people on our side who are simply clueless about how politics works.
Honestly, it is probably better to not know how politics works. The more my eyes have been opened to how politics works in this country, the more cynical and pessimistic and black-pilled I have become. The 2006 Amnesty push was my first awakening into the BS that is American politics. And the 2020 Plandemic, summer of BLM, stolen election, January 6th government op and the forced "vax" black-pilled me. I'll never be optimistic about anything to do with government again.
Between the grifters, the controlled opposition, and the self-directed fire, it is a wonder the right ever wins.

Looking over my lifetime (1976), there have not been many wins for the right. Reagan from 1980-1988, Congress for a few years under Clinton in the 1990s and then Trump in 2016 and 2024.
And I remember when the right couldn't even support Rush Limbaugh when the left would attack him, taking him out of context. The right has never been united.

>>>>And now people on a stage, who clearly despise each other, are yelling at each other and dunking on each other.
Angela McArdle, the former LP National Chair noticed this is the situation with the Libertarian party as well -- and I will add this was a feature of the middle period Tea Party as well, before it was taken over by the neo-cons and smothered.
McArdle has said that part of the problem is how the LP was structured in that it was unable to focus on long term issues, and has noted that they kept finding Feds showing up in important positions where they caused a lot of dissension and drama. At the moment the LP has been taken by the Prog-commies and is done as a movement. Smothered like the T-Party
TPUSA may well have the same future as those two other political orgs

'Thank you for expressing that. Some "Biblical scholarship" drives me batty because of that attitude.'
I'm not saying the Biblical scholars are right but I can see why they are so picky. If some outside the mainstream 'fact' from the early church is accepted as true, it gets rolled into some people's Christian creed.
And if the fact is wrong, you produce a heresy.

The left and fake right, like Ben Shapiro and the entire National Review crew who is now tsk tsking Nick, actually created Nick. They’re the ones who were all for globalism and mass immigration cuz free markets man!! And so what if tens of millions of white men are thrown to the side. We’re saving 3 cents on tomatoes, totally worth it.
Sorry boys and girls you created the monster. Now it’s going to eat you.

That's all they do, really. They usually time these assaults with Easter, trying to inflict maximum damage on the faith.

In the modern UK, beer is still a commoner's drink, and mead is for rural weirdos (same with cider).
Wine is for the upper class because it had to be imported at considerable expense. Farage frequently quaffing a beer makes him a man of the people.

The mead I have here is 3x the price of an average bottle of wine. That was slightly annoying.

Seems like a similar situation happened with the rise of Andrew Tate. The UK is especially concerned with him and the "rise of misogyny".

Very strange. JC was publicly scourged and mocked. The mobs demanded His immediate execution. He was crucified amongst criminals and buried in another man's tomb. His body disappeared after three days and His followers claimed He rose from the dead.
After all of that, He's still the greatest clickbait on the planet.
'"Biblical scholars" regularly fall over themselves praising transparent hoaxes that almost immediately fall apart. Meanwhile, established facts and traditions are constantly undercut and attacked.'
A double standard. Sounds a bit like... the left.

Show pictures of Clinton in a pool with some chix, and everyone can cluck all day and night about it.
Meanwhile, the people and the purpose behind the Epstein op keep doing what they do: Blackmail politicians, CEOs, media moguls, celebrities, and university "scholars" to do the bidding of the "intelligence" organizations.

... you have to be united to succeed.
Wrong! you need a deep magazine of Nepo-LIBs ready to spend it all, to burn the world, *AND* secretly reaping ROI on the chaos they sew; to deploy them like so many luftwaffe appearing over horizon during the battle of Britain while their LIB parents wail and bemoan judge upon their determined, dilligently applied, desperate evil.
Is it any coincidence the family foundations reap billions by "Taking things from YOU in the name of the Common Good" only to deploy the next raft of Nepo-Libs and their horrors on the innocent, the Unknowing and the APATHETIC.
Release, indeed, FREE AND SPONSOR! the HUNTER BIDEN's, the NICK REINER's, the ever now, and future present Epstein's, Clinton's, Soros', the John Walker/American Taliban's, the James Fergie Chambers (Cox Heir and professional revolutionaries) who will proudly do unto their own people PRECISELY what they forbid us to do to our Adversaries.

Yes, I doubt that he's deep in. But, he's a semi-regular guest on Gutfeld!, and I could picture Greg taking him out partying after the show once or thrice. And, it actually makes Walter's point stronger if it would only take a few times dropping in on the scene to see vastly more decadence than what the Epstein Files show.

Some of of that is because 24 was an election year and interest always spikes in those years. But holy shit that’s a yuuugely bigly yuuuge drop nonetheless.

Nick Fuentes is a grifting clown. He was exposed on X as getting a very large segment of his support from places like Pakistan. Just because Fuentes and Tate say a few obvious truths doesn't mean they are the voices of reason and all truth.
One of the downsides of the internet and the world of constant engagement is the rise of the "influencer" class that says outrageous and often stupid things for clicks.

The left and fake right, like Ben Shapiro and the entire National Review crew who is now tsk tsking Nick, actually created Nick. They’re the ones who were all for globalism and mass immigration cuz free markets man!! And so what if tens of millions of white men are thrown to the side.

They would have had wine. There's an actual line between where grapes can and can't be grown. On one side, everyone drinks wine, on the other, it's beer and mead.

I assume that vineyards were relatively very productive vs other fruit crops. And you get either red or white. Other fruit crops you get a lot more varieties and usually call it something else like cider. While beer anywhere is beer.

Fed.Gov.Mil would frequently advertise jobs in Anchorage.
A couple weeks they'd contact you, "Congrats, you got the job in... (whispers) Fairbanks...."

When I was shopping around for a job, I would go to the fedgov website, and look at all the places in the country I might want to live.
Not sure if I ever applied for a job in Al Aksa, but when I looked at housing prices, I thought "You people live in conditions unfit for humans, and you have the nerve to prices your houses THIS high?"

NF is neither republican nor conservative. He's an op, nothing more. The left created him and is attempting to staple him to "our" side when he's already stated he's not one of "us".

This is so much cope dude. He was “created” 10 years ago. In that time, he’s been banned by everyone and everything. Elon let him back on X and that’s when he started getting some mainstream traction. He was even in the no fly list for a while. Banks refused to allow him to open an account. He was persona non grata.
But he’s an op?

Makes me remember a record my dad would sometimes play at Christmastime that has a song he called "Japanese Jingle Bells" (no idea what it was actually called), that had verses sung in Japanese and some in English, and some in both languages at the same time...

I think it's hilarious that the sportsball world has just decided to fully embrace gambling, and now we're seeing the first trickling of players and coaches getting caught up in scandals.
Petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of our minds.

My assumption is the REAL oligarchy (not the ones everyone talks about, but the real money and power people) all engage in egregious behaviors that "normal" humans tend to recoil at the thought of.
They don't do it to blackmail each other, not in the same way they do it to the nominal heads of organizations.
No, the real rich and powerful do it because they can, and the pact they form with each other is more of a blood oath (literally and figuratively), in that they all know what each other have in their proverbial closets, and it sets them apart from the rest of us.

Speaking of Christmas music, each year at this time I post, a couple of times, this link to FBC radio. At this time of the year they 'broadcast' traditional hymns and carols. There won't be any Alvin and the Chipmunks, or Jingle Bells. Here for instance is the playlist for the last half hour:
Come Now, the Nations’ Savior
12:35:09
Come Now, Ye Shepherds
12:36:49
Beside Thy Manger Here I Stand
12:38:37
O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
12:44:10
God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen
https://www.fbcradio.org/
I just open another tab and play it softly in the background. Keeps me in mind of the season. There will be an occasional sermonett, which depending on your inclination, you can simply silence.

when, for example, would you see the headline "D.C. Police Chief Yells “F YOU!” to Her “Haters” as She Resigns in Disgrace" under Barky or Slo-Joe?

What I would tell to the newcomer who doesn’t understand the infighting is that Charlie Kirk had founded a powerful movement which was embodied by TPUSA. A lot of his talent and personality was embedded in it.
Not long after his death, a small but very well financed and organized group attempted to stage an ideological and organizational takeover. The public faces of this attempt were Candace, Carlson, and Fuentes, but they had many allies.
But the effort is burning itself out, and Erica Kirk has maintained control. The reason for the infighting now is that all of those who supported the attempted takeover need to be booted out of TPUSA, and out of the so-called conservative movement for good, just as Bill Kristol and Rick Wilson and the other never Trumpers have been. That process is still playing out, and will in part depend on if Erica has the skills and nerve needed to run a tight ship. I’m optimistic.

Dad always said the guys that cleaned out their garage and had no other goals generally die within 2 years, so you better find something to do that engages you as much as your work did.

The day I knew I couldn't take it anymore and I desperately needed to retire soon:
I had just turned 5 years old and was walking towards a building I was informed held something called kindergarten. I had been there previously and what not impressed with the experience. For one thing, there were other kids there, and two they wanted to group me with those kids, screaming snotty kids. But at least there were parents to smack the kids around and I thought that would help. But as I approached the kindergarten fear set in, there were no parents, just hoards of screaming kids and a scant few tired adults. And so it began.
They were animals, could not read, could hardly talk, did not know about numbers, peed and pooped themselves. Oh, the smell! And their digestive systems were put in wrong because they couldn't keep from puking. I think there was a kid puking every five minutes. But the worst thing was these other kids were under the illusion that they were allowed to touch me. Which they tried to do all day long. Dirty pawing animals.

Had a visit from three elderly Jehovah's Witness ladies just a little while ago. They were friendly enough, and I enjoy disarming them with wisdom from the Bible.
I may not align with their beliefs (I did not annoy them by wishing them a Merry Christmas), but I do admire their evangelical enthusiasm. I took a Watchtower.
Good morning. Still drinking coffee.

Be very careful with what you spend your precious time doing, because you are probably going to get good at it.

Make keeping and improving your health a priority. Some physical activity every day even if it's just walking.
List all the things you wished you had more time to do when you were working and start doing the ones that appeal most to you now.
If the list includes travel, don't wait too long to start doing that.

But the day was finally over and after walking home I informed my mom that it was horrible and that I wouldn't be able to go back. And that was when I informed that life was about going to terrible places that you didn't want to be to hang around people you didn't want to be with. And I knew that day that I would have to do everything I could to retire from that.
Turns out I really suck at retiring. But someday when I'm 150 or so I think, it should be nice.

The Mongolian Jingle Bells video is beautiful.
Not to be That Guy, but if you study it a bit, it wasn't filmed in a single take. The person wearing a Santa costume moves to different places around the fire an the flames in the fire itself vary quite a bit. But it's quite enjoyable and has been masterfully edited.

AH Lloyd alluded to this earlier today. Simply put, the core problem with authoritarian dictatorships is that by banning all free speech and all criticism of authority, you allow all the constant corruptions and thieving and misrule to go unchecked, until it leads to the collapse of virtually everything. That’s a thumbnail sketch of what ended the Soviet Union.

Do serious hobby stuff
Take time to see stuff even local you never saw before

Mama Publius asked me what I wanted for Christmas, and I sent her a link to a full length fleece robe with a sherpa-lined hood, and sherpa trim. It is AWESOME and I wish I could wear it grocery shopping. I wanted something that she'd see me enjoy daily, and I thank her for it every day. I wear it when I hang out in the garage (like I am now - it's windless and 55F).
So, in my case, I got it before Christmas. I gave Publius a new wallet a week ago. His old one tore after about 75 years. j/k, maybe 20.
Mama's going to wait until Christmas Eve. I bought a big wicker basket with a high arching handle, and I'm filling it with various goodies, imported Italian cookies and pastries, some things to keep her warm and the first three novels in another detective series for her to fall in love with, I hope. She's sucked the juices out of Donna Leon.

Here's thr thing. The grifter elite had control of nearly everything, almost globally. They had the media and the ability to concoct excuse stories. Racism, climate issues, refugees..anything to morally sell the grift. Then Trump and whoever is backing him came along, said boo and their marks stood up. If the Trump side loses their grip, the grifter elite will come back with a vengeance. If I am the Trump group, I am going full YOLO up to and including military takeover. Dunno if the Trump group sees it that way cause they arent going to telegraph that so I can see it obviously

In the "history of all civilization"? Give me a break. No one knows what has or has not happened for stuff like this "in all of civilization". Hell, we don't even know what has or has not happened in all of *American* history. And what we do know, some are lies. Since people lie. Just look at all the lying that happened during 2020 alone for the Plandemic.
This is why I don't believe in any of these content creators, because they have to put out BS like this to get attention. Also, how does this square with all the "polls" out there showing the young generation are supporting socialism. Are churches now leading young people to socialism? Considering many churches push illegal immigration and global warming and other nonsense, it wouldn't surprise me.
