The Morning Report — 8/ 7 /26

The former premier of the Soviet Union once stated "I can prophecy that your grandchildren in America will live under socialism -- Our firm conviction is that sooner or later Capitalism will give way to Socialism. Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you."

And so here we are almost 70 years on and although the Soviet Union is also now the former Soviet Union, existing as it once did as Russia. regardless of the thuggery and corruption of its current leader Vladimir Putin, the question is, was Nikita Khrushchev right, or is the jury still out on his prediction.

Let's take a gander at a few things that might shed some light on the situation. First up, we have the Dairy State, to which I escaped from NYC merely 5 short years ago.

Francesca Hong is running to be the next governor of Wisconsin, but she can’t decide if she wants to be the Grinch who stole Thanksgiving, too. Thanksgiving? We’re talking about Thanksgiving in August? In 2020, she tweeted that we should stick a carving knife in the national holiday of gratitude because it was “celebrating colonialism.”

From that flaming pile of excrement we go south to Texas where you'd think, saner heads would for sure be prevailing. You'd think, until . . .

James Talarico Headlined Pride Event Alongside 11-Year-Old Child Drag Queen 'Kween Kee Kee': 'Absolute Cutest and Youngest of Our Drag Performers' The Pride Month event also featured a drag queen with the provocative name 'Sedonya Face'

Of course, these are merely candidates for governor and senator. But would the party run them if they didn't think they had a shot at rallying their troops. And speaking of which, first up we have...

About a mile and a half from where Luigi Mangione (allegedly) murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, and a schlep from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn where the (alleged) assassin is being held as he awaits state and federal trials, Luigi: The Musical finished its six-night New York City run at The Green Room 42 in the YOTEL New York Times Square.

Springtime for Hitler was merely Mel Brooks being funny. At the time some thought even he went a bit too far with The Prodcuers but sadly it seems as if he was actually being prescient. Just as the late great Paddy Chayefsky was with Network

And here we have another one who will bury, er that is BURN us.

An upcoming criminal trial may reshape public opinion about the main cause of the 2025 Palisades Fire in Southern California, redefining it as a consequence not of climate change but of class warfare.

While all of the previous maniacs were all born and raised here, we still have Michiganistan and Islam to contend with...

The financial and ideological ties between El-Sayed and CAIR raise questions about his candidacy, given CAIR’s controversial history and alleged links to terrorist organizations. This could become a focal point in the Michigan Senate race as voters scrutinize the influence of such organizations on political candidates.

Well, it's nice to believe as some do that Mike Rogers will beat this fiend. But please remember that beyond the base, Michigan's elections are run by Governor Wretched Whitler and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson who were both, especially the latter, instrumental in the thievery that stole the state from Trump and gave it to Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants Biden in 2020 in the middle of the night in Wayne County where election observers were ejected, the windows covered and 18-wheelers full of ballots hauled in.

So, as we close out the week, let's try to end on a much happier note:

Ever since Donald Trump returned to the White House and especially since Trump’s Liberation Day tariff announcement, the economic press has reported that American manufacturing is struggling under President Trump’s tariffs. Even worse: stories have frequently claimed that manufacturing is struggling because of the tariffs. The Wall Street Journal declared manufacturing “in retreat.” The Associated Press said tariffs were “hurting American manufacturers instead of helping them.” Reuters reported that import duties had undercut manufacturing.
There’s just one problem: none of that is happening. If tariffs are hurting American manufacturing, someone forgot to tell the factories.
The Labor Department reported Thursday that manufacturing output rose at a 4.6 percent annual rate in the second quarter. Hours worked increased 2.6 percent. Productivity, which measures output per hour, rose 1.9 percent.

And on top of that, we have this bit of orgasmatronia!

President Donald Trump signed two executive orders Thursday that end birth tourism and expand the definition of who does not qualify for birthright citizenship. . . The first Executive Order non-exhaustively identifies certain categories of children of aliens who are not entitled to birthright citizenship consistent with historical exceptions to birthright citizenship recognized by the Supreme Court in Barbara. The second Executive Order delegates presidential authorities to the Secretary of State and Secretary of Homeland Security and directs them to halt the practice of birth tourism.

Well, I'm sure the lawsuits will start flying and the usual crackpot nutters will threaten SCOTUS justices and their families but who knows? If Roe v. Wade could be nixed, perhaps there's hope that the 14th Amendment could actually be read and upheld as written and intended. My concern isn't necessarily with the Leftists it's mostly the RINOs who will stab us in the back.

So we're in the mass grave or marching to it, but perhaps the first shovel-full of dirt has yet to be dropped on us?

How's that for optimism?! And with that I bid you all

Have a great weekend,

Tougher to kill this one, I think. The EO basically says that if you're in the US just long enough to give birth and then immediately take the child back to whatever country you're visiting from then you obviously aren't under the jurisdiction of the US so not a citizen.

The courts could shit on him again but at some point they make it plain to even the dimmest of bulbs that they're not trying to uphold the Constitution, they're trying to destroy the country.

26 Read Rush Limbaugh's "The True Story of Thanksgiving." It is anti-Communist, anti-Socialist.

The Pilgrims land off-course after months at sea, hitting the Americas right as winter was starting. Many died, more would have if the natives didn't spare food.

They also went Communist before Communism - everyone would work, their produce would go into a central bank. That bank was to pay off the loan that paid for the journey to the new world. But everyone, man, woman, and child, also got one share of everything produced. Each according to their ability, each according to their need.

The journal of the leader showed this was a crap idea even then. It did not work, and it was turning godly people (they left Europe because of religion!) into hating their neighbors. So they scrapped the whole commune deal. Somewhat quickly, because these weren't over-educated retards like from today's "higher" learning. Every family was given a plot of land. They could sell what they grew and made.

First winter - pity food from the natives. Next winter - abundance because you worked to eat. Apparently, they paid off that loan pretty quickly too afterwards.

It was normal to sue over the punch list, then sue partners, and then sue anyone else involved. Trump is at that stage with Iran. Just pay no attention while he does the statecraft equivalent of suing them, as he finishes off whatever the hell he is doing over there. As long as none of our guys have to land on the beach I guess I'm ok with target practice.

46 TGIF all

We’re in a weird spot right now. Depending on the day of the week or hour of the day, I alternate between thinking we’re on the cusp of disaster to believing a sweeping series of victories are on the threshold. From Iran is disastrous politically to a belief that Iran is slowly crumbling; from a feeling Dems will sweep the midterms to optimism the GOP keeps both chambers. I can’t make up my mind, which is unusual… strange

That should also extend to Hollywood shows where anyone under 18 is portrayed as gay or trans. Or submitted to that crap. There was a kids show 'Popularity Papers' where one of the main characters had two gay Dads - one a drag queen.

They actually had a kid dress in drag for a PRIDE WEEK thing. It was pretty disgusting.

And then the was Fay and Fluffy which was aimed at 6 year olds.

My guess is that the muslims paid the council enough that they're set even if they're voted out of office at the next opportunity. Given the fact that hundreds of people showed up to speak against it, that's a real possibility. Still... damage done.

Do you see the masculine Democrat toughguy rebrand yet? They are copying what Trump did, but from the Left and as a "movement" instead of a single person. Soon the picture of Democrats - sneaky establishment power stepping on the common man, and the feminine gay and trans identity bud light driven horseshit party that Trump worked so hard to fight and expose - will be a memory.

The new energetic party has a message - they are the party of the working man again. And strong. It's about branding, not reality. They're starting extreme to get attention and then the Party can slowly modulate the message, depending on how things are received. Trump did this too by opening with crazy extreme ideas (a muslim ban, punishment for abortions) and then paring back.

Calling him scary did not work and Democrats know why. And he lurched the country Right despite having just his voice - and so with practically 100% media control, they're giving it a shot. And they get to do it the Democrat Way. At arm's length in case it doesn't quite work out. But heavily coordinated.

They're expensive in some places, probably LA and the like. Places where lots of people feel the need to share on social media. AFAIK, no one has correlated the places where burritos are expensive to places where the minimum wage has been jacked way up.

I live in an allegedly "deep red" state in the process of selling its soul.

What happened to the old school Democrat party is not complicated at all - it was based on nothing but thievery and racial grievances, but had managed to gain control of a lot of electoral systems. It had nothing left at all to offer younger voters who it was not serving in any way - but the things it controlled made it a ripe candidate for a takeover.

And that, obviously, is what is happening. I believe a big story in the future will be the revelation that the DSA is almost completely funded and led by the CCP, through intermediaries like Neville Singh. There’s a LOT of dark money behind them.

Parenthetical: Gas prices really aren’t up all that much…. These nuts are very creative in finding ways to bash Israel

153 Republicans must get serious about countering the leftists’ siren-song promises of free stuff to a generation that’s genuinely hurting.

I'm sure that every media outlet will be breaking land speed records to get their mics recording Republicans doing just this.

And they must take the time to explain how the previous round of free stuff is what got us into this expensive mess in the first place.

Which will be ignored because the spin will be that we don't want young people having free stuff because we're heartless and want grandma to die.
