Up in the Holler, we have a saying: nothing worse than two men in a fight and only one of them knows it. To this point, the Evil Party is down in the sawdust, rolling in the mud and the blood and the beer, while the Stupid Party is asking what are the rules.

I hope the Stupid Party and those who vote that way get a rod up their spines (I can think of other places I'd shove it) and FIGHT. Make no mistake, boys and girls; this is for all the marbles. I'm doing everything possible to encourage truckers I know to refuse all pulls to New York. I review every purchase for any indicators that company does business in NY or CA, and if so, I put it back. I keep two lists on my refrigerator - one Patriot, one Woke. I haven't had a Woke Coke in years. I live in the same town as the Freedom Caucus chair, Bob Good, and spent an hour talking with him on the street yesterday about priorities. To the extent possible, I donate to candidates.

And, of course, on Substack I rail on about Lawfare, Alleged President Joe Stolen, and this Nation's descent on the Hellbound Train. I hope we make it.

Re the $400 million Trump has to put up before he can even appeal — in itself absurd — why doesn’t he start a go-fund me page to help raise the money? If he does it will be the most money I ever gave to a politician. (Although he is a patriot way before he is a politician.) And I believe an awful lot of people feel the same way.

Think of the message this would sen to the swamp scum?

Just read a Lucianne link to Conservative Treehouse (who I stopped reading awhile back bc the trails thru much of his pieces were a ‘long and winding road’ which I had no basis to evaluate). But this is a simple, powerful point.

Gov. Hochul’s assurances to NY high rollers not to worry that what happened to Trump could happen to them, could only mean that the standard business practices they nailed Trump for were just the tool they used to get Trump now before he gets back the White House.

I hope she’s given Trump the rope to hang them all. Love to see a twofer- Engeron & Letitia hung back to back with same rope.

(I’m still a sinner. Not sanctified yet. Working on that Love Your Enemies command. Pray for me.)

With great respect Mister Don, may I remind us all that it was not the FBI's Special Agents who spilled the beans on Hillary Clinton's crimes. It was Julian Assange. Since Mr. Assange did the right thing and uncovered Bill & Hillary's crimes against humanity, the Five Eyes have hounded Assange nearly to death. Now, right now, they are putting on a show-trial in England "authorizing" Assange's extradition to the United States where another show-trial to imprison him for life is being arranged.

The work Julian Assange did in revealing The Clinton malfeasance is and example of honest, fearless reportage. Instead of being awarded for his integrity, Mr. Assange is being driven into obscurity and death. His wife says her husband is as good as dead already if he is extradited to the U.S.

I think Biden ought to be the investigated.

Not so much because we know he is a sell out the country crook but because of all the little acorns that would fall out of the investigation . I cannot think that the Biden crime family was the only political family or person who benefited from these obvious purchases by foreign entities.

Might be rewarding to find out who else was in on the take.

Pelosi comes to mind as does the turtle and Pierre Delecto.

Lawfare by the Dems have consequences:

1. No trucks delivering food and supplies to NYC and DC. Truckers have learned from the Canada affair. No blockade just don’t take the assignment then their trucks aren’t confiscated. No Fois Gras for Manhattan and Foggy Bottom.

2. NYC verdict makes businesses wary of doing business in NYC. More companies will leave for greener pastures like Miami. NYC will be left with its migrants and no tax revenue.

3. Don’t elect DEI attorneys to important jobs. Civil Rights Attorney Benjamin Crump observed that all crime laws should be dropped against blacks in America as it’s in their nature to commit crise. DEI DA admits that’s it’s in Mr Wade’s nature to be a Bon Vivant. If blacks want true equality with whites then they need to either follow the same rules in society as whites Asians Indians and Hispanics or sufferer the embarrassment they were hit with this week.

4. Russia Collusion Version 2. Tucker Carlson has shown maybe we can have clean subways non GMO food inexpensively if we side with Russia. In addition Biden looks like Putin in his treatment of his political opponent, although the irony is lost on him… along with everything else.

5. Trump mugshot = Trump win. Republicans will come out in force and also have learned to stuff the ballot box.

While I like how this case is exposing Fani, Fulton County corruption and Democrat corruption in general, my opinion, based on the years I lived there and reason for getting out, has more to do with reverse racism than investigation. The man whose attorney looked into the Wade divorce filings and found the Willis/Wade relationship was a black defendant. The other 17 are white. No black in Fulton, Cobb, Clayton or DeKalb would ever have come forward to volunteer corruption information against a black helping a white person. Wade's law partner even said on the stand nobody would tell the truth and "burn that bridge".

I moved to Atlanta when it was the "city too busy to hate". It was wonderful. Vibrant, full of opportunity. Safe. I left because of the danger, but the final straw was when they told my husband directly and without any fear of reprimand that they threw out his repeated applications for advertised government positions because the positions were being held for their black friends.

Jim Crow and segregation 2.0 is alive and well with role reversal.

Good morning, all.

I'm a big fan of karma. Having observed its workings in my life and others around me, I learned how to keep my life balanced in such a way - by not acting out in anger - that I no longer have to deal with those consequences. Not that I haven't entertained the idea of acting out; in times before, I was a big fan of retribution. Grateful that I learned I no longer need to go there.

Have a great day, everyone.

Don't believe for an instant that the Fani Willis Trump Persecution Game is going away quietly and soon. A second day of testimony by her was abruptly canceled without a remotely adequate explanation. Even the locals where wondering WTF? We know anything is possible in Fulton County (Atlanta) where the number one rule of politics is corruption pays.

Great essay to follow yesterdays example of an ideal presidency.I firmly believe PDJT is in the mode of Washington in risking his very existence for the love of a once and maybe again great example of freedom and opportunity for all.The challenges we are facing can be overcome with diligence and un-relenting efforts requiring faith in God and his guidance in life.Poll needs aota but lead on Poca-Man as we march to victory for America and humanity MAGA 2024.

Yesterday's news that Trump has to post a half billion dollars in order to appeal is a corker. Once again, no victim, no nothing, but a determination to strip him of his wealth. It's time for Jamie Dimon to get a group of banks to rally together and show the rotten Dems that America's financial institutions won't stand for third world treatment. And it better happen this week!

Willis and the rest are small potatoes but they serve as road signs for the rest of us. Their signs point to preemptive strikes at the Left's worst enemy. *** A hallmark of Trump Presidency #1 was ignorance. International business is a woven fabric of interdependent companies and politicians engaging in high stakes self promotion with a side (sometimes main) course of corruption. Trump knows how to play that game but he failed to realize the same framework existed in our government. *** He was an out of towner. HIs unfamiliarity with the government game was amply demonstrated by his reliance upon advisors who were themselves self-promoting players in the game. Look to his appointees! *** The corruption and deep state (Yes I repeat myself) derailed him. Now he presents a real problem to the Left. He is a proven master at international business. He has armed himself with broad knowledge and the rules of the government game. He has been building an army of units focused on specific issues to be quickly addressed after his inauguration. The Left will do anything to stop him because he can destroy them and their turf. They are forewarned that he is coming for them and brining Hell with him.

Speaking of relationships and possible conflict of interest, the CFP had some background info on Judge McAfee, the judge presiding over the Fani Willis hearing. Besides his music degree from Emory University, he also reportedly worked under Fani Willis for a while back early in his career. That sounds like another conflict of interest possibility.

The poll is a tough one but I voted for the most amateur at the corruption game, and the one most likely to have been affirmative actioned into her job. She’s the most likely to feel invulnerable and without possibility of error. But my money is that James was bought and paid for and sees a bigger payoff coming her way. Prideful and all that.

One of the (many) things I admired about Trump is that he didn't hire henchmen like James Carville (the Clintons), Lee Atwater (the Bushes) or David Axelrod (the Obamas) to do his dirty work. Trump did it himself, without the "plausible deniability" every other politician hides behind. Those who stood up for Trump--Giuliani, Bannon, Navarro, the peaceful J6 demonstrators, et al--have all become victims of lawfare, too. I don't know how this ends, but the cycle of hate and revenge needs to stop.

If follow the money works, maybe start with Soros or Obama. The hard part will be finding someone to head the DOJ. We don't seem to have anyone with the Gonads for the job....
