Our President sets an ungodly pace for the spoon-fed, spoiled brat media; used to watching football and eating Doritos and guacamole over the holidays—not running the Mar-a-Lago obstacle course of press conferences, high-profile visitors and deadlines that the CIC demands of his foot soldiers. His plan is to exhaust them all into surrender, and it looks like it’s working! Happy New Year to our favorite Dons!

I don't know what to call this man. He's not just a bull in a China shop, he's a Tasmanian Devil and a dynamo combined with a pitbull. Plus listening to him speak extraneously is a combination of Dean Martin and Don Rickles.

GW Bush was wrong and most of us knew it in 2001. Islam is not and never has been a religion of peace.

Funniest line: "How the Halal did that happen?"

Great post Don.

I was looking for the choice in your quiz: "American Patriots" benefited the most from the events at Mar-A-Lago.

Islam is the religion of conquest. It'll be the religion of peace when it's revised to remove all the hate-sections. Unfortunately, that's about 99% of the Quran and the Hadiths, so a revised Quran would be only one sentence: "Love ALL your neighbors."

The only peace in Islam is the milliseconds between the bomb explosion and the screams of the wounded.

Out of all the G.W. Bush quotes, that one is forever etched in my head. I can't un-forget it.

Byron King's avatar

“Muslims elected a Jewish mayor.” How did that happen? Just spitballing…. But I suspect that the vote-counting system of Minneapolis worked exactly as the inner circles intended, if you get my drift.

darrell's avatar

Now you'er catching on. Like Stalin says he cares not who votes its who gets to count them. Voter fraud should be pushed up to federal treason courts.

Minnesota and Georgia have a lot in common.

Jeremy R's avatar

Along with California, Illinois, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Arizona........

The fraud runs deep in blue states but we are seeing some in Texas and other red states on a lesser scale. $1.00 is to much fraud to a small business owner or retogs such as my group.

Sophie's avatar

I know little about Minnesota other than what I read but I have lived in Georgia for almost 50 years. The problem with Georgia is Metro Atlanta as orchestrated by Fulton County. Most of Northwest and Northeast Georgia counties are deep red.

How the Halal that happened still has me chuckling.

Thanks Mr. S.

I'm worried about my friend the Nigerian dissident who I'm helping to get his hundred million dollars safely out of the country. Haven't heard from him since I sent money for his plane ticket. /s

Robert Brusca's avatar

He's waiting for a real black out--surely he is fly-by-night.

Sam Prentice's avatar

I know!!!! I haven't heard from him either and I'm getting really worried. He promised he would write!

Mike Ware's avatar

Ask him if my Nigerian Sweepstakes ticket was a winner?

William Coulter's avatar

Both Bush’s screwed up royally.

One wanted you to read his lips about no new taxes and the other confused murder and terrorism with a belief in peace.

The first one we know was a liar as he was a former CIA guy and we have come to know about the shenanigans they have been doing for quite some time.

When junior did the religion of peace thing we knew he was in over his head as no sane American was buying that drivel.

At least Trump has his head screwed on correctly as he calls ‘em as he sees ‘em and takes action to further protect us as well as undo much of what the previous 5 Presidents have screwed up.

Playswithneedles's avatar

Well, at least we can thank W for being slightly better than OwlGore. Just the thought of him being in the White House on 9/11/01 still gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Cookie McCall's avatar

me too - that is really the one thing I am thankful for in W's presidency. He's become a major embarrassment during his post-presidency

WTPuck's avatar

Yup. After my first thought on 9/11 (we're at war) and the second (God help us all), my next thought was "Thank God Al Gore is not the president."

Stephen Wolf's avatar

That would still be a reason to vote for Bush today though it would be while holding my nose.

Robert Brusca's avatar

Yes, but a convenient fact...

dancingtime's avatar

We knew Bush 43 was in over his head by his cabinet picks....

Cookie McCall's avatar

especially his VP pick

Bush needed some "gravitas" on the ticket.

Standing ovation!

CactusMatt32's avatar

So grateful that Blessings on the fruited plains and the common sense of normal American citizens continues to eventually power through. Such great expectations for 2026 and our fantastic Leader and the talented cabinet that volunteered to sacrifice several years of their finite lives on this Earth to bring the wrong-direction Congress and its errant federal government back to doing the Will of US citizens…. Now the hard part of spreading the ‘new idea’ of the hope & faith of Christianity vs depressing future of a secular live-for-today bleak existence…

As a friend said as a joke (but may be true!): "If con is the opposite of pro is Congress the opposite of progress?"

Charles Bolen's avatar

Despite the DNC debt, we will see Democrat Congressional Candidates outspend the Republican Candidates in over half of the 50 closest congressional races next year.

The RCCC is notorious for withholding funds for MAGA candidates that beat out US Chamber/SWAMP candidates in the primary. The performance of Congress continues to be a drag. Impeachment of rogue judges and legislative actions against the rogue Federal Reserve would be popular, meaningful boosts to the polls, but they sit on the sideline keeping the Ukrainian cash flow going.

Trump can do all he can to boost Congress, but they themselves have done nothing to even pull within 10% of Trump’s 2024 share in the races next November. At this point even the Senate seat in Ohio is in peril. Vivek very well may have cost the GOP the Ohio governor’s race.

Sam Prentice's avatar

The RNC has been besieging me with calls for contributions. I ignore them. Then I just received a rather impertinent text from them demanding I respond to them. Well, I did just that and really let them have it. I said they were nothing but a pack of quisling deserters who actually never did anything or accomplished anything. I also added a few pleasantries to send them on their way. Shortly after I received a response from them that simply said "Unsubscribed."

Robert Brusca's avatar

you not dough-nating to us? We not talkin' to U...excellent trade-off. well done.

Rfhirsch's avatar

Not even donating doughnuts.

No money from me either; hit up the Billionaires; too bad that Shelly Adelson is no longer around; but his wife Miriam is; and she has billions; again,,, hit up the billionaires.

I must get a dozen or more emails each week begging for cash for some purported Republican support group. Delete, delete, delete, delete, etc.

Joe LaGreca's avatar

I've lost count of how many times I've unsubscribed from these "committees" - they must tweak the email addresses since those emails keep flooding my Inbox. I just use their regular mail solicitations disguised as surveys to line our kitchen garbage container. Thankfully, we have caller ID - so we only answer the phone if we recognize the phone # - get at least a dozen calls daily coming from all over the USA - they never leave a message so I know it's them.

Ms. Bert's avatar

I think you're lucky Joe. I get between 12,-24 TEXT's a day. I do the stop-end but it doesn't work.

Joe LaGreca's avatar

It's not that I'm lucky - it's because I don't give out my cell phone #. When I tried signing up for Truth Social, they required a cell # - I contacted them & told them I don't give out my cell #, so they found a way to sign me up without my cell #.

Rfhirsch's avatar

Only that FEW!!! I get 100+ a day.

Ms. Bert's avatar

Good for you, Sam. I will give it a try.

Reddog's avatar

Entirely correct. Congress abandoned its role in our government to Trump because they really don’t give a darn who wins or holds power. They are the most worthless body in America, their sole objective is to keep big dollar donors happy, regardless of what they want. When you listen to most politicians talk, they either tell us what we want to hear or they just belch out the days talking points. At least John Kennedy gives us some humor while patronizing us. I get a couple funding requests a day from him. After the election is over it will be six years before he returns. Half the time I have to look up what state a candidate is from. Might be better if only people from the state you propose to represent can donate money. Why donate to anyone in another state? Because state elections are really about far more than one state today and congress uses us.

Retirednottired's avatar

I have said for years, only legal contributions should be from whatever district you are running in. Keep your obligations where they belong.

Marlan Hoerer's avatar

Kennedy is an oases in a desert of egotistical power hungry animals crowding a trough while claiming to work for the constituents dead and alive. Too bad he can not be cloned into a young conservative DJT .

Reddog's avatar

My wife, who never utters a bad comment, says of Kennedy, “nice guy, but…….”. From my perspective, when the country decided to pay for full time politicians we lost our government. These people start their careers poor and end them rich while never having done anything for the country besides naming post offices.

Ms. Bert's avatar

Well Mr. Bolen, you put Vivek in past tense; care to explain yourself?

Charles Bolen's avatar

Vivek’s staunch stance on bringing in H1B and others to displace a workforce won’t play well in a Rust Belt state. It polls disasterously among under 50 blue collar voters, which is the key swing demographic there. Dude had a double digit win built in and blew it the day he announced by alienating those most likely to back him. He is no JD Vance.

Danimal28's avatar

Remember, all the fraud that Somali's are committing in my MN is going straight to the demonrat party, not just Al-Shaabab or other retarded organizations.

White men have not voted in a majority for a democrat president since 1964.

Marlan Hoerer's avatar

Who knew Diet Coke was dynamo fuel when combined with a conscience ?? Truly we were given a leader with vision and the ability to surround himself with likeminded personnel. Let us make sure we give him the tools to finish the job by getting out the conservative vote in the mid-terms.

"A little research would have helped Joyce Vance."

Damn the research on with the smear!

Julie Caprera's avatar

Ditto the previous commenters on their observation of clever twists on insightful info. A spoonful of humor helps the content take root. I like the new acrostic BBO…clever, practical, way of tying similar operatives together. Now if C for Clinton could be added somehow it would be even better. You amaze me in how you can tie together so many things!

steph_gray's avatar

CBBO sounds like a nightmare version of the Congressional Budget Office.

Cookie McCall's avatar

perhaps it could be BBOC

24 years ago Islamist terrorists slammed airplanes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field somewhere in Pennsylvania. The country swore we’d never forget. In the meantime Islamist terrorists are busy infiltrating Europe, Nigeria, and countries in both North and South American. I do not suffer from Islamophobia. I suffer from criminal terrorists. Hang every one of them from the highest tree. IThat's what Minnesotans don’t should do to their Governor and his people. I believe Kash Patel is going to clean up the fraud in Minnesota. Send those Somalis back to Somalia. This is not unique to Minnesota. It is going on in my Home State of Maine, I read about enclaves in Texas. They have been quietly infiltrating this country. AND when we try to eradicate them the Federal Judges step up and block the efforts.

I watched an old rerun of Johnny Carson last night that aired in 1978. One of his guests was talking about the infiltration of foreign entities in our government.. He also said people were paid off to allow this to happen. That’s how congressmen get richer. That’s how Ilan Omar, Rashisda Tlaib, and the AOC’s get elected. Then they appoint the federal judges who put up the road blocks. Obama was a Muslim and no one will convince me otherwise. I know you are all as frustrated as I am. Thanks for letting me vent. Donald Trump, too is as frustrated as we are and doing his best to expose and rid the country of the fraud and corruption.

Subvet's avatar

PS I just watched Nick Shirley's video about the fraud in Minnesota. His post got over 90 million views on Twitter. The New York Times readership online and in print only has a little over 12.5 subscriptions. New media is or has over taken the old guard. The MSM is rapidly losing it's grip on the narrative.

Recent figures I saw shows Nick's video getting over 100M views on X, but only under 2M on YouTube.

Subvet's avatar

Thanks to Elon Musk it IS being seen. JD Vance and Don Trump Jr have reposted. Bloggers are linking to it and Nick is going to on Charley Kirk show. Its going viral. Maybe something will finally be done. PS others are now reporting it happening in California and several other states.

So far, Bari, 60 Minutes, and all of CBS are late to the party.

Elon said famously, when speaking about what DOGE uncovered…”trace the funding.”

I voted for Bushes 4 times, but the further into DJT’s second term we get, the less happy with the Bush’s I am. Were 41 and 43 polite, gracious, respectful leaders? Definitely yes! Were they discerning or critically thinking? Definitely not! How many American jobs did they choose to lose? Tens of millions! I know of nothing important or positive they contributed. Margaret Thatcher was the steel in Bush 41’s foreign policy. Bush 43 and his neocon buddies cost us $B’s, thousands of dead and wounded, and gained us… nothing! FJB? Of course! But F da Bushes? Also yes and F RINO’s everywhere.

Hmmm, the jacka$$e$ are out of money? Oh puhleeze!

Why don’t the communists axe Ilhan Omar’s Somali terrorist constituents, who stole BILLIONS in taxpayer handouts in a food-stamp scam, for a loan?

Hell, axe Omar herself for some money? She be worth $40,000,000.00 now.

Why not axe “Feel the Bern Hemorrhoid” Sanders for a loan? His banker be the criminal enterprise euphemistically referred to as the Clinton Foundation.

Gruesome Newsom’s loaded, too. Axe him & his Wicked Witch of the West auntie for some of their ill-gotten gains.

Dubya was in error on a lot of sh*t going on in the middle-east, his misunderstanding of Islam being peaceful & Kwanzaa being a legit Christmas holiday.

Perhaps his eyesight needs to be checked, too? Remember Putin’s and W holding hands while gazing into each other’s eyes?

Hmmm, Somaliland? Put a lien on everything Ilhan Omar has access to and deport all her constituents or, at least, feed them to Minnesota’s pigs.

Oh hell, Mr. Surber, why aren’t the trifecta of Walz, Frey & Omar in prison?

Under BBO, no meetings, no bombings, just #hashtags & sitting around the campfire singing kumbaya while drinking egg-nog.
