The Morning Report — 10/27/25

Good morning kids. I think I speak for the vast majority if not all of you good people when I say that I am huge fan of the work of Prof. Victor Davis Hanson. Not just because he is a confirmed lurker and devotee of Ace's brand of cruelty, but the breadth and depth of his knowledge of history and his personal experience as an educator and a farmer, especially during the past several decades of the Leftist/Democrat destruction of the once great state of California.

To say that VDH knows what he's talking about is a vast understatement.

In the late 1850s, “Bleeding Kansas” was the term used to describe the escalating cycle of violence, when surrogates for the Union and soon-to-be Confederacy fought each other over whether Kansas would be admitted as a free or slave-owning state.
As the assaults and killings increased, radicals set the agenda. The logical next step was the nightmares of Fort Sumter and Bull Run.
Those calling for restraint and peaceful resolutions were considered weak and traitorous. The thuggish and violent, instead, were praised as the true idealists and patriots, the real “base” of their respective parties. We have witnessed a growing wave of left-wing assassins and would-be assassins in the last few years: James Hodgkinson, Luigi Mangione, James Crooks, Ryan Routh, Elias Rodriguez, and Tyler Robinson, who have targeted Republican House leaders, CEOs, Donald Trump, Jews, and Charlie Kirk. For months, leftists vandalized or torched anything to do with the Tesla brand, and with virtual impunity, they sometimes went after individual Tesla owners. Jews walked in the shadows on campuses, where mobs cheered Hamas killers.

Despite my effusive and well-deserved praise of Prof Hanson, as you perhaps have surmised, now comes the very big BUT and it's right in the lede of this otherwise well-written, as per usual, essay

America again flirts with its own “Bleeding Kansas”—a cycle of partisan violence and defiance where lawless zealots are hailed as patriots and the rule of law bleeds away.

Where pray tell is this "cycle of violence." All I have seen, not just since President Trump descended the escalator of Trump tower just over 10 years ago now, but since I was a child in the 1960s are acts of political incitement and terrorism committed solely by Leftists, Democrats and those who seek the destruction of the American republic and the acquisition of absolute power in service of that end.

Can anyone name for me any organization of the size, breadth and depth of Antifa, BLM, the Weathermen, Earth Liberation Front, CAIR, La Raza, or any other group that neither the illegitimate and discredited SPLC, ADL or every other phony watchdog group refuses to name, that is their equivalent that exists on our end of the political/societal/cutural spectrum.

So, with all due respect to Prof Hanson, if there was a cycle of violence it would only last for exactly 1 RPM. The bodies of the Antifans and BLMsters would've been stacked like cordwood long ago and the Democrat Party dissolved, as it should've been in 1865.

not too long ago, the [so-called quote-unquote] president of the United States and his number one law enforcement agent publicly denied the existence of a group of violent commie anarchist yobbos who exist to tear down the country. Why would Biden and Wray do such a thing? Because the Democrat Party is in cahoots with Antifa and shares their goal of toppling the U.S. government. . .
Flashback to the 2020 debates: Trump warned that Antifa was a radical Left-wing militant group, and Joe Biden claimed Antifa was not a real organization, it was just “an idea”.The Dems knowingly tried to cover up their brown shirts. The Dems and Antifa are the same entity.

That last sentence = Bingo. The question is, do the Democrats really think that fomenting and directly or indirectly funding and even planning/directing the attacks themselves are going to terrorize the vast majority of Americans shift their support from conservatism or at the least normalcy to their party and their repulsive, amoral, perverted criminal anti-civilization agenda. They sure seem to be banking on it.

What they are hoping for is an equal and opposite reaction against some Democrat politician, media/entertainment personality or institution that they can then use as their cassus belli to go after us should God forbid come the day (as it likely will unfortunately) when they once again control all the branches of elected government to go along with their stranglehold on the corrupt judiciary and the still extant bureaucracy that President Trump and team are working to completely destroy or at a minimum seriously defang.

And so this happened

Security officers opened fire on a U-Haul truck that accelerated toward them outside the U.S. Coast Guard base in Alameda, California, during an anti-ICE protest, in a dramatic incident caught on video. The events unfolded near the end of a day-long demonstration against federal immigration enforcement operations staged at the base.The truck reversed quickly toward officers guarding the bridge to Coast Guard Island, despite instructions to stop, resulting in a volley of gunfire. The truck then began accelerating forward.
Photographer Rick Villaroman, who was at the scene, said, “He just hit the gas and sped towards them. And that’s when they opened fire. About 20 to 30 rounds.”Witnesses said the vehicle struck two bystanders before the masked driver stopped briefly, appeared to check his phone, and then drove off. According to Villaroman, the driver abandoned the truck nearby after it had been parked outside the base for most of the day.
The Coast Guard said the vehicle’s actions posed a direct threat to security personnel. Notably, U-Haul trucks have been used in multiple terror attacks and attempted terror attacks in the U.S. and Canada in recent years. Most notably, an Islamic State jihadist admitted to the U.S. from Uzbekistan on a Diversity Immigrant Visa, used a U-Haul to murder eight people on a crowded bike path in Lower Manhattan in 2017.

We cannot go on like this, We must break the back of the (anti-)American Left and its epicenter in the Democrat Party. And as we have noted many many times, it all starts in the schools where Democrat terrporists are made. Unless and until the brainwashing mills from Pre-K through Post-Grad are dismantled and remade in our image, we will face an indenting string of terrorists of both the James Comey and Luigi Mangione variety forever, until either they or we and our progeny are defeated. It really is us or them. A time for choosing, indeed.

On an altogether different note, is there some massive extraterrestrial object lurking behind the Sun?

35 Insty has an article on the NYT writing thousands of words about the rise of child prostitution in California, particularly Los Angeles.

And in all those thousands of words, not a single cause is named.

It's merely "California changed the laws" and "budgets were cut."

What a truly horrifying, vile and grotesque political entity the Dems are:
Literally sacrificing children to sexual predators.

And look at the anti-Christians like David French--Trump said a vulgar word 20 years ago and that makes him worse than the Democrats open, gleeful and proud support of (and engagement in) child prostitution.

If you give someone free money to buy things, they now compete with another for that limited product. Food tends to be less limited than other products, so the effect may be smaller, but yes, it will fuel some food inflation.

I do not see any significant parallels between contemporary events and our civil war. The ideological divide in 1861 had a pretty good geographical boundary: north vs south. There is no such geographical divide today when our left vs right is pretty much everywhere. You could say urban vs rural but if you tried to draw a map it’d make no sense. Nor are their existing political entities that could raise armies and exist as separate countries in any meaningful way. Despite all their gum yapping, Newsom in CA and fatty in IL are not gonna secede. We’re pretty much stuck with working this thing out somehow. The only route is complete victory in the political arena so that people like AOC are completely discredited and voted out of office in disgrace… a project that could take decades…

Rotisserie is not cheaper than buying chicken drumsticks...ever. Is it cheaper than breast/thigh/wing - sometimes yes. But never drumstick, so food stamps should buy the chicken that is cheapest.

When I was a kid, we had an ancient abridged dictionary. It defined "masturbation" as "self-abuse." When you looked up "self-abuse," guess how it was defined. Right; "masturbation."

On the other hand, the dictionary had a basic Latin phrases glossary and a short section on business law. "To be arson in the first degree, the buildings fired must have been inhabited, and the action must have occurred at night." So, you know, it was useful.

One or the other, coin flip. INquired with Grok about any Monte-Carlo simulations. They've done quite a few of these -- not specifically counter-earth set ups, but L3 simulations in general.

With just a 3-body (Sun, two earths opposite), the collision/ejection fraction is about dead even, 50/50. Now add perturbations from the other planets and that shifts it to favor ejection over collision around 7:1.

"Collision" also includes one of the earth's falling into the Sun, or colliding with Venus.

232 The Biden junta's ascension to power was sort of like pre-Civil War Spain.

A leftwing government narrowly came to power then acted ruthlessly to stomp on dissent - killing people in the streets with impunity. This led to the rise of the national response and the Civil war.

Here the left wasn't quite as violent, though looking at the attempted Trump assassinations more from incompetence then morality, so the nationalist response was peaceful - protests on J6 then efforts to beat the cheat to get Trump into office now.

But he has to use this opportunity to imprison everyone that broke the established laws under the Junta, or else we will see this pattern repeat.

Europe does have a little bit of a problem with this - they aren't marrying cousins like the muzzies but they might have been marrying from within the same village for the last 1000 years - its why it is often easy to tell where Euros are from if you get to know Europe.

But this is more of the "great replacement theory stuff".

I'm also reminded of an Ursula LeGuin novel where someone gets wishes and they wish to end racism...so all human beings get grey skin and hair. This was considered a bad thing in left leaning LeGun's novel, but of course the left has reversed itself on everything over the years.

Good point. We also are missing something when we discuss Antifa and the Brownshirts in the 30’s. The Brownshirts grew powerful because they were covertly supported by the conservative and militarist elements of German society who wanted them to support the original Antifa, which was armed and supported by Stalin. The Government did nothing towards either one.

Concerted, focused official action from the Government could have easily crushed both groups at the time - but it was never attempted, and we know what happened next.

There is no reason for that huge, historical mistake to be made again.

But the party that launched cancel culture is standing by him. Bernie Sanders says his Nazi tattoo is a distraction: “I think what we have got to do as a nation is not focus on a tattoo,” he told Axios last week.

Sure enough, Platner remains the front-runner in the Democratic primary. The latest polls have him 34 points ahead of Maine governor Janet Mills.

In Virginia, Dems are running a candidate as the state’s attorney general who said he wanted to murder a Republican lawmaker and his small children. That GOPer is no longer in politics.

But Jay Jones is still on the Democratic ticket to be Virginia’s top cop alongside gubernatorial aspirant Abigail Spanberger, who won’t say a bad word about him, let alone disavow his candidacy.

The ex-CIA operative is running against the black Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears, and the NAACP is backing the white woman.

In New York, the Democrat most likely to become mayor posed proudly with a radical imam and purported unindicted coconspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing who has called for jihad in “garbage can” America ever since.

I don't see it as that way at all. There are folks who simply need an ass kicking to get them back to being normal. What we are dealing with is generations of people who have become accustomed to free stuff and they suddenly don't have it any longer.

I remember when they demanded a VA Senate candidate step down before he said macaca, which was supposedly a racial slur in Portuguese Colonial Africa - it was a ridiculously reach but it worked

By the way the target was a Dot Indian guy with a mohawk so it is pretty obvious the intent was to compare him to a macaw - a slur against black people wouldn't even make sense...

325 someone gets wishes and they wish to end racism...so all human beings get grey skin and hair.

Racism is basically extended family Hatfield and McCoy. We are all related; it just requires going back enough generations. That is just simple maths.

Melanin content and eye color are two of many things that are congenital, yet when comparing, there are more differences between siblings than the so-called "races".

"Racism" is a social construct. If the Left can imagine that an XY can be a woman because sex is a social construct, then this whole business about predominant family characteristics can be dismissed too.

342 My sister-in-law gets (got) "food stamps." Or whatever it's called these days. Basically $100 a month. Her social security bennies are around $200/month.

How she survives on that month to month is beyond me.

Neither her, nor her late husband ever made any money in life and never thought to save. The very definition of "poor white trash."

Turns out that her first Hubby was something like a second cousin of June's. "Small World" and all that ...

356 A suburban Chicago cop was taken into custody by ICE agents this month, and the arrest has blown open a political fight over sanctuary policies, hiring standards, and who gets to wear a badge in Illinois. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement says Radule Bojovic, a sworn officer with the Hanover Park Police Department, is a citizen of Montenegro who overstayed a tourist visa and remained in the country unlawfully for roughly a decade. He was encountered during a targeted sweep under Operation Midway Blitz, the new Department of Homeland Security campaign focused on the Chicago area.

This (at least to me) is the great unsaid crisis - there is some number of us who have paid our taxes, mowed our lawns, covered our bills, helped our neighbors... for all of our lives.

We're now the suckers for doing so. Why should I care about paying my "health insurance" bill? Mortage? FY, bank. Attempt to properly pay income taxes? FY part 2. Updated car registration? Car insurance?
Why? 'Cause I'm supposed to?

366 The Lathe of Heaven, my favorite work by her. The ultimate point of the novel, which I think is a very good and conservative point, is that when any man sets himself up as a god and starts trying to remake the world so it is “better” , the unforeseen consequences will in fact just make it worse and worse.

One of the things I find interesting is that older left leaning writers could write about things bigger then whatever the narrative is upset about now, and they could write about them in a way that is informative to a general audience - another work of hers like this is "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas"

But modern left leaning writers are generally hacks and the only thing you "gain" from reading them is whatever the hell the left is mad about today.

370 He… once labeled Trump a "tragic figure."

When a classicist labels someone “tragic” it isn’t generally going to be an insult. It means they are larger than life, noble, and and a real hero.

That they possess some fatal flaw that leads to their downfall isn’t what sets them apart from the rest of humanity. Everyone possesses a fatal flaw; it is in our nature as humans. Both Christianity and the Greek tradition are clear on this. What sets the tragic figure apart is that they are heroic, not that they possess the flaw inherent in all humanity.

The government intentionally makes the paperwork for interacting with them onerous as it provided jobs. Those to create/review the documentation, and the at NGOs which help politically connected groups fill out the paperwork.

Note, this is almost always a case where the government agency asking for additional information already has it. But they will reject you if you don't supply it again.

376 Christian abolitionists financed farmers who wished to leave the less desirable farms of New England and move to Kansas. That was way before even talk of Secession. After it was obvious that the population of Kansas was going to vote against Avery,that was when the violence started. JJ is entitled to his own opinions. But not his own "facts"

378 While I find that I am often in agreement with the larger political positions of Mr. Hanson, I am most definitely
NOT a fan. This post provides yet another example of how VDH consistently awkwardly misuses history to make a political point. This sews historical ignorance and confusion and muddies the political point he tries to make. He regularly does this with Civil War references that have, at best, a tenuous connection to whatever point he is trying to make. As conservatives, we shouldn't tolerate such reckless, or willful, misuse of history simply to make a political point, even if we agree with that point.

380 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J.

Where do they get those ideas? While the opinion of the authors, certain political & analytical sites may hold some influence? Example -

>CSIS, Ideological Trends in U.S. Terrorism Analysis by Daniel Byman and Riley McCabe, Published Sept 26, 2025

Terrorist Attacks and Plots in the United States by Perpetrator Orientation, 1994–2025*

Left, Right, Ethnonationalist, Jihadist, Other
40 attacks

"The Warfare, Irregular Threats, and Terrorism Program examines the state of terrorism in the U.S., finding left-wing violence has risen in the last decade but from very low levels and still well below historic levels of violence by right-wing and jihadist actors."

*Data for 2025 runs through July 4, 2025.

>Also, 'Left-Wing Terrorism and Political Violence in the United States: What the Data Tells Us,' Published Sept. 25th (same site, authors)

There's an audio brief to the article of Sep. 26th, and the article opens with a picture from the American Comeback tour.

In part, "More contentious politics in the United States and the expansion of the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement appear to have reenergized violent left-wing extremists."

381 We're only seeing O getting involved, but under the surface:

>NY Times, Hunter Biden Pursued a Deal to Sell Land Around the U.S. Embassy in Romania, 3 wks ago

>Back in August, Tampa Free Press, 'Hunter Biden Joins California Eviction Defense Nonprofit As Director Of Development'

Former President’s Son Takes on Role at BASTA Inc. Amidst Ongoing Financial and Legal Challenges

In part, "During the interview, Biden described his new role as an opportunity to be “of service” and help vulnerable people in Los Angeles. He highlighted the organization’s work in defending tenants facing eviction, including a focus on assisting undocumented immigrants, Ukrainian refugees, and other individuals who fear seeking legal help due to potential ICE raids or other legal complications."
---
Some say Hunter's not working with the non-profit.

But are the Bidens antagonizing, especially stirring up conflict against ICE, but also seeming to be reinterested in Eastern European politics?

Attacks on MAGA are always moving so they appear organic but they're highly planned and orchestrated to be fluid, in motion and then will circle back as the publics' memories fade.

And Cali & NY still control.
