The Morning Report — 5/ 16 /25

Good morning kids. With the tempest in a Teapot Dome over the so-called "gift" from Qatar of a jumbo jet to President Trump still swirling, a friend had told me that supposedly the delivery of the jet had been arranged by Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants in the last years of his junta for the same reasons President Trump is accepting delivery on behalf of the United States, and not him personally. I cannot find reference to this anywhere on line, but the salient facts as to why the jet is being accepted and is sadly needed remain:

Buzz Patterson, a retired Air Force pilot, White House military aide, and carrier of the nuclear football, has stepped in to inject a dose of reality—and firsthand experience—into the conversation. While critics scramble to paint the move as some kind of scandal involving President Trump, Patterson makes clear this is nothing new or scandalous, and absolutely nothing that warrants the breathless outrage.
“I’m going to try one last time,” Patterson began in a post on X. “The Qatar B-747 was built in the US by Boeing. They are offering a newer 747 to replace one of the two current AF-1s that have been flying for 40 years. Which are tired and need to be replaced.”
That last point is key. The current Air Force One planes are aging relics that first entered service when Ronald Reagan was in the White House. Replacing them has been a long, slow, and—thanks to bureaucratic delays—frustrating process. Patterson, who served as a military aide during the Clinton administration and has flown on Air Force One over a hundred times, says the Qatar aircraft would simply help fill the gap until Boeing completes new replacements—something that won’t happen for years.

No wonder the Democrat/Left is shrieking its lungs out about this. The average American is paying more attention to who and what the Dems are pushing and defending, that is criminal illegal alien invaders that are murdering and raping their way across America while sacking the US treasury in the process.

House Republicans are moving to block an estimated 1.4 million illegal aliens from receiving American taxpayer-funded Medicaid as Democrats struggle to message their support for the unpopular position.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee completed its markup of its portion of the budget reconciliation bill Wednesday morning after an all-night session which included a provision blocking anyone unable to verify citizenship, nationality, or satisfactory immigration status from coverage. The committee projects 1.4 million illegal aliens will be removed from the program due to those requirements.
House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) ignored a question from CNN’s Wolf Blitzer about the cost savings from striking illegal aliens from the taxpayer dole Wednesday and if fighting it would “open up” Democrats to attacks that they support tax dollars going to illegal aliens. . . Newsom has moderated some of the radical left-wing stances that sent him to Sacramento but are seen as politically toxic in a national general election — suggesting House Democrats are fighting a battle they may be destined to lose on ensuring taxpayer-funded Medicaid for illegal aliens. Complicating Democrats’ messaging is their repeated calls for decades to rid Medicaid of waste, fraud, and abuse – the very initiative they now insist to loathe.

I don't know where this 1.4 million figure comes from. Biden's four-year border erasure allowed perhaps 10 times that number in if not more, and there were probably close to at least 40 million illegal aliens already here long before he was wheeled in as Obama's puppet. And it doesn't even come close to the fictitious 11 million illegal aliens figure that has been bandied about at least since Reagan was duped into signing the Simpson-Mazzoli amnesty travesty in 1986.

The illegal alien invasion that the Democrats have engineered is but one of several albatross carcasses that will or at least has the potential to drag them down, for at least a generation; future election thievery and GOP incompetence/mlfeasance/collaboration notwithstanding.

the reality is that the Democrat Party is far beyond distressed. As a functioning political entity, it has no reason for existing beyond opposing Trump, and secondarily Republicans. It is completely devoid of any issues, policies or even philosophies relevant to the majority of Americans. Their top issues are protecting violent illegal aliens and drag queen story hour for kiddos while trashing Martin Luther King’s dream by insisting on hiring people based on skin color. The economy is right there! (It won’t be by the end of the year or before, but it is right now.)
Meanwhile, President Trump remains steadfast in his efforts on all fronts. ICE is so overwhelmed trying to remove Biden’s unknown millions of illegals that Trump is doubling down on deportation efforts. On Friday, he ordered the Department of Homeland Security to increase the deportation force of the United States by 20,000 officers. It would be an enormous and needed expansion of immigration enforcement. Details to be ironed out, but also expect him to seek creative ways to house the illegals in various facilities on their way out, because the existing ones are also overwhelmed.
Politically speaking, Democrats have ripe targets of opportunity. But with a base of radicals and extremists they insist on playing to, they are resolutely avoiding them. The question is: Can they recover any purpose on behalf of the American people or will they continue to slide into political second class citizenship?

The Democrat Party was, is and always will be ANTI-American, insofar as that all it cares about is the acquisition of absolute power, and so that last last question answers itself. Party politics is one thing, but evil never rests.

Speaking of which, other than being indicative of a preening, narcissistic, asshole, I don't think it's the equivalent of a "Telefon" style message to a sleeper cell.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Secret Service have launched an investigation into an alarming social media post published by former FBI Director James Comey.
Former FBI Director James Comey on Thursday shared an image on Instagram that many people saw as an unsubtle threat to President Donald Trump. Comey posted a photo of a rock formation on a sandy beach that spelled out “86 47,” and captioned the post “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.”
. . . DHS Secretary Kristi Noem wrote on X that Comey’s post was being viewed as an assassination threat and an appropriate investigation has been launched. “Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUS Trump,” Noem said. “DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”

Considering, the Left went apeshit about Sarah Palin's "target" imagery, and the fact that James Comey was a co-conspirator in he various and sundry plots to derail Donald Trump's candidacy in 2016 via the Russia Collusion hoax and that the FBI and CIA used foreign and domestic intelligence assets to gin up that smear campaign and that both have been implicated in the use of assassination in their operations (legitimate and otherwise). That President Trump has already been the target of at least two known attempts on his life prior to the 2024 election, Comey to me is a very sick and dangerous threat to our national security and needs to be investigated thoroughly with a view towards imprisonment for a very long time in a Federal prison.

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 weekend.

US cardinals all went into the 1st vote and voted together, even though they are across the ideological range...I don't think that's ever happened.

Part of the problem (indirectly referred to at the end of the article) is the pretense that the Bar - and the legal profession in general - are simply private actors. They are not. They are a hybrid, in that they are a private business organization which controls our access to a justice system which is essentially part of the government.

That means that the usual patterns of approach simply don't apply to lawyers. On the one hand, they are not simply private businessmen. OTOH, there are reasons to want them not to be all state employees. Again, the usual rules don't work here.

I wonder if we're truly capable of this sort of hardline common sense. Trump is making great progress in reversing the societally suicidal madness. But we've gotten so soft as a culture, so infested with emotion, ideology and aberrant moral righteousness, hard to imagine sustaining it.

32 NBC: Supreme Court appears skeptical of allowing Trump to implement birthright citizenship plan. In more than two hours of oral argument, the justices vigorously debated various ways to limit the number of nationwide injunctions, but on the birthright citizenship issue specifically a majority appeared to think such an approach may have been justified, especially in cases brought by states.

Skeptical? They shouldn't be skeptical of it. They should be absolutely opposed to it based on the Constitution! Especially with the injunctions issue. Limiting nationwide injunctions, especially in this case, would mean unequally applying the law.

I don't know what's wrong with these justices. They don’t even want to defend the judiciary. That stupid airplane should’ve been rejected out of hand too.

the judiciary is our only hope now since we have no heroes in the Republican Congress. The legislative checks and balance is failing.

According to an HBO documentary The Dark Money Game, a majority of the conservative Supreme Court Justices have been corrupted by wealthy benefactors who’ve bought and paid for decisions that benefit their interests and goals.

_______
Our side is far too confident about this, in the long term. It's a way the Left keeps beating us. Conservatives look at the damage they do themselves in today's elections. True enough. But even when they lose, they lay the groundwork for tomorrow's win. Rely on it; in a generation (at most) the notion of opposing "illegal aliens" will be like opposing homosexuals marrying is today.

Putting the Lara Trump interview aside, Tom Elliott’s video is full of deceptively edited clips. The truth is both Jake and I were covering this.

Excerpt from Jake Tapper's personal diary, anytime in 2021 --

Dear Diary: Whew! Busy day today posting sacred screeds on line to bolster my street cred as an ardent defender of veterans. Posing is soooooo hard! 😖😖 Here's a little secret -- just between you and me, mind you -- I saw an aide of Biden texting, "Code Brown! Code Brown!" to someone not in the room with 💕 President Silver Dream 💕 and me. I had NOOOO IDEA what that meant 🤔🤔 until a dense cloud of fecal odor wafted my way from PSD's direction. My keen urinalist sense instantly pieced together the clues 💩💩 and I vowed right there on the spot to disclose this fully -- to you, Dearest Diary! I'm a brave urinalist, I am! Everybody says so, especially that guy who I see all the time in the mirror. His admiring looks at me keep me soldiering on! TTFN, Dearist Diary! 🥰🥰

There was also a speaker… a prof at the law school. And of course (believe it or not)… he couldn’t help himself, he had to talk about the “Maryland dad” who’s been so unjustly shipped off to a maximum security prison in El Salvador without “due process” and how the DOJ lawyer who admitted in court that there had been an “administrative error” had been fired by Pam Bondi…. You see sometimes lawyers have to sacrifice to “ do the right thing”… nauseating

There's certainly a case for a DoD/FedGov contractor side and a civilian aircraft builder side. They've also got their fingers in a variety of aerospace projects, some private some FedGov. They also provide systems software for a number of civilian/government systems.

111 "The primordial trauma of existence is the death and rot of God. The corpse of God; the corpse of Death; the corpse of Time; the corpse of the Phallus," he wrote in "Sociotraumatics," a 2024 poem published in Gadfly, Columbia's undergraduate philosophy magazine. "The corpse of God is the corpse of the decaying phallus."

So a gay, feminist, nihilist, who thinks he’s being profound but comes across as an atheist, communist, fag who’s trying too hard to sound intellectual.

These people hate the 10,000 year-old reality of the human condition & civilization itself.

What many people still don't realize is just how much of that money came from their tax dollars. All of that money flowing through NGOs and non-profits that was used to pay for things like regime change and mass illegal immigration was also used to payoff those who went along with uniparty policies.

The very accusation visibly disgusted the CNN host, who flipped out and accused her of “mocking” the former president’s stutter. This was a common deflection technique used to shame into silence anyone who spoke up about the concerning signs they noticed.

...He also shouted over Lara to tell her that she “has absolutely no standing to diagnose somebody’s cognitive decline,” adding that she should be “more sensitive to people who do not have medical licenses diagnosing politicians from afar.”

172 If SCOTUS wants to steal Article II power from the president, that is, our power, they should be promptly ignored. The “crisis” is not that the president has traduced them, it is that their usurpation of power is clearly not a power of the courts.

Notwithstanding the merits of each case, a nationwide injunction against the executive actions of a president is an abuse of the highest regard. Especially in the case of immigration where the president has preeminent power in pursuit of his clearly delineated constitutional duties.

How did "86" come to have that meaning, anyway?
Posted by: Bulg at May 16, 2025 08:45 AM (77rzZ)

AI says:

The term "86" likely originated in the 1930s within the restaurant industry, where it meant that an item was sold out. Its exact etymology is unclear, but it may be related to rhyming slang for "nix" or linked to a speakeasy called Chumley's at 86 Bedford Street in New York City, where patrons were told to leave when police arrived.

241 "86 45 Impeach Trump" T-shirts were sold during the first Dump presidency. It does not automatically exclude constitutional means and advocate violence. It was also in at least one DUer's sig.

They are just trying to shut down opposition. “Getting rid of” doesn’t have to mean kill. Far more incendiary garbage spews out of the right wing.

Have some punch, Jim! Same cheap trick Comey used to shiv Democrats in 2016 — dox us by announcing an investigation. Doesn’t feel good, Jim?

The face-eating leopards will sleep well tonight. It is as close to 100% certainty as imaginable that had Comey not torpedoed Clinton the last weeks of the campaign, she would have been elected. Karma is a bitch, but unfortunately, we are all suffering because of Comey's karma.

Even if "86" meant what they claim it does (it doesn't), they have no fucking legs to stand on when Kash Patel is and has been clearly threatening to execute high-profile Dems. To what should be no one's surprise. No one loves death threats more than fascists.

Republicans, on their own, have killed several pro 2A bills already before they’ve even gotten a vote. They were going to eliminate all the NFA taxes which have dubious constitutional legitimacy to begin with, and now limited that to the suppresor tax. DoJ has done zero to address any of the overreach. They haven’t even eliminated the unconstitutional firearms records that Biden was digitizing with his ATF. There’s a whole bunch of other stuff that Bondi should be doing and she’s done zero. Trump doesn’t even talk about the 2A anymore and there is a lot more that should be getting done.

Literally nothing has changed for you personally by the passage of that bill.

They neither took away any of your current rights or threatened to.

All they’ve done is given police and retired police the ability to conceal carry in more places.

If you want that for everybody then ask for it, make your case to the politicians and vote accordingly depending on their response.

That’s how the system works.
But instead you want Trump to turn King and just grant you something by decree and then get mad when he won’t do it.

I’m truly confused why some people claim to love the republic but want to turn it into a monarchy just to get a few special interest issues resolved.

I won't fault Trump directly. Bondi has a lousy record on the 2A. He picked her, but no pick can be perfect. Trump has had a lot of challenges to deal with. But he has let gun rights slip from his focus. There is quite a bit of frustration among gun owners.

Every single "single issue" voter thinks that the entirety of the Trump administration should spend it's every moment focused solely on their single issue while bitching, constantly, about how not enough is happening.

Agreed.

Just interesting when a longtime FBI leader's daughter keeps showing up in cases of deviants who known for amassing power in exchange for providing a safe space for the VIPs to get their freak on. Comey's daughter apparently made sure Hunter's name was kept out of the trail of his Chinese business pal, so it would appear she's part of the legal clean-up team for DC snakes out to get Trump.

It would appear, marginally, that Noem has more gumption about doing the job than Bondi does.

Although, in Bondi's defense I will acknowledge that the hunting down and prosecuting of child traffickers and stopping the flow of Fent (which seems to be of primary importance to the DoJ right now) is certainly worthwhile.

And, FWIW, I wouldn't really trust the FBI to investigate one of their own... Comey. But it'd be interesting to have him explain himself to Patel and Bongino.

Agreed Marcus.

Trump is a New York businessman and real estate tycoon, he tends to focus on economic issues and deals.

So it's not surprising that he hasn't worked very hard, if at all, on 2A issues. What is surprising, somewhat, is that none of his subordinates that were selected are focused on addressing 2A issues.

Trump promised a great many things in his run-up to the election and courted a lot of interest bases, but has yet to deliver in many areas. Among those would be Epstein files, no tax on tips/overtime, demolishing the department of education, halting military aid to Ukraine and others.

I'm willing to give him time, for now, but soon will be coming the midterms, and if Republicans lose the house or senate, those will become the excuse for feckless inaction.

355 339 Comey is a loathsome cocklicker, but I doubt he was calling for Trump to be killed. To “86” something means colloquially to get rid of it. You can 86 inanimate objects. It’s an expression.

357 So it's not surprising that he hasn't worked very hard, if at all, on 2A issues. What is surprising, somewhat, is that none of his subordinates that were selected are focused on addressing 2A issues.

You don't know that. Trump directed them to look into 2A issues. The fact that the media hasn't hit you over the head with what they're doing on the subject doesn't mean that they're doing nothing and sitting around telling each other, over and over again, about how you're getting screwed will only cement in your mind that idea even if it turns out that you're wrong.

Maybe sit back, pop open a beer, and try not to wet your pants for a couple months.

Nope, we are installing lattice between its floor and the lower rail that splits the screened surfaces into two sections.

We'd have to insulate beneath the deck and seal it better to begin to make it a sun room.

397 Question:
Would you support a citizenship for the children of illegals born here?

Something not easy, though.
Like, no crimes or arrests (including voting), HS diploma or GED, pass 1980 citizenship exam with a $5k application fee (each try) within in 2 years, not eligible for chain migration, no welfare ever, no unemployment ever.

Those who can't/don't, can apply for a "temporary worker's card" where they waive all defenses to deportation, agree can be removed for any crime, and agree to return to their native country w/in 10 years.

I only ask because, there's going to have to be some way to diffuse the issue
