Sometimes you just have to be an [insert slang term for the anus here] to do things right

Immigration

My good friend and sometime blog pinch hitter William Teach noted the Associated Press story, “ICE arrests jumped to nearly 50,000 in July, the highest monthly total of Trump’s second term.” That’s great, but let’s do the math. 50,000 arrests, and hopefully deportations, times 12 equals just 600,000 per year. In the 30 months remaining …

Useful Idiots: When the Revolution You Cheered Comes for You

History’s most dangerous political bait-and-switch begins when groups with completely incompatible end goals unite around a common enemy. Iran’s Marxists thought they were using the Islamists; the Islamists had other plans. Today, America’s socialists, progressives, and Islamist activists sometimes find themselves marching beneath the same anti-capitalist and anti-Western banners. Iran offers an uncomfortable warning: before helping tear down the old order, you’d better ask what your revolutionary partners intend to build in its place—and whether they’ll still need you when they’re finished.

Recording Law Enforcement.

There is no question citizens have the right to monitor law enforcement in the open. Physically interfering with policing is another issue. When the government wants to preserve its privacy, it may build a fence or close a door—but not ban speech. U.S. Circuit Judge Myrna Pérez Massimino v. Benoit (2026) With the deployment of …

Highlights of the Week with Don Surber

Don Surber escorts us through another week of the media’s treatment what it considers news. We need this reporting on the media or we’d never know what was actually going on. 

ITEM 1: The New York Times reported, “Harry and Meghan Will Move Back to Britain After 6 Years in U.S.”

Two more self-deportations for Trump (4 counting the kids).

“Our Constitution Was Made Only For A Moral And Religious People, It Is Wholly Inadequate To The Government Of Any Other”

“Our Constitution Was Made Only For A Moral And Religious People, It Is Wholly Inadequate To The Government Of Any Other”

Steve contrasts the generation who fought the revolution & gave us our precious US Constitution & Bill of Rights with the generation who is now trying to replace it with Sharia law & Communism. George laments how 75% of Christians are giving tacit permission to The Left to destroy our society & our nation because they don’t vote.

Long Time Democrat Operative Backs GOP Mike Rogers Over Democrat/DSA Candidate Abdul El-Sayed For US Senate From Michigan

Julian Epstein, who served as the chief legal counsel for House Democrats during the Clinton impeachment hearing in the1990s and later worked on Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, made waves last week declaring his support for GOP’s Mike Rogers over Marxist/Islamist Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan’s Senate race.

“Trump’s Luck” Explained: When preparation meets opportunity

There is an old formulation, often attributed to the Roman philosopher Seneca, that luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. It is a useful lens for examining the last eighteen months of the Trump administration, because it exposes the intellectual laziness — and, more often, the cynical political motive — behind the Democrat-media complex’s favored explanation for nearly every Trump-era success: that he simply got lucky.

AOC is DOA Via DSA

AOC, when accused of being a socialist, had this to say: “Can I tell you a secret? Most people don’t really know what capitalism is; most people don’t even know what socialism is. But most people are not capitalist because they don’t have capitalist money. They’re not billionaires.”

Weather the Storm

This past week our little town got hit by a storm cell that was tornado-like in all but name and dark funnel. It was our hardest hit since the storm of the century, Hurricane Isabel, in 2003. This one was all wind, not water. Living on the shore of the Chesapeake Bay we’re used to getting both. A no name Nor-easter will flood with inches of past records. We weather them all. We weather whatever the storm.

The storms of nature and man will always confront us.

Will The SAVE Act Save America?

My original intent was to write a short piece in favor of the SAVE Act. But exposure to the facts, generally missing from the debate, changed my mind. This effort led to a proposal to replace the SAVE Act, one that respects the wisdom of federalism, rejects one size fits all legislation, and recognizes the reality of legal challenges.

The Night Two Networks Decided You Did Not Need to See This Declassified Data Dump! July 16th, Part 3

I Read Every Declassified File From July 16th. Here Is What They Actually Say — And Where I Have To Correct My Own Side.

On the evening of July 16, 2026, the President of the United States addressed the nation from the White House and announced the immediate declassification of intelligence covering five areas of American election security. NBC declined to carry it live. ABC declined to carry it live. NBC News NOW ran it on a streaming channel and promised a special report afterward, which is the television equivalent of telling your wife you will get to the garage this weekend.

Part 1 of this series covered Tranche One and Two.

Part 2 covered Tranche Three, Four and Five.

We pick it up here in Part 3 at Tranche Six.
