Michael Shellenberger on Reuters, "Crack" Russians Whatsis, and the Riots in France; or: You Don't Hate the Media Enough

Ah, yes. A crack “covert Russian network” came to the same conclusion as everyone with half a brain. And now @Reuters is helping @vonderleyen smear anyone who recognizes reality and rejects EU/Reuters propaganda 2016 is calling and wants its psyop back

More on Trump's "Too Tough" Immigration Policy

link

Incidentally: the left is mentally challenged...but their brainless rhetorical tactics have been surprisingly effective. The relevant one here: they seem to be in the midst of successfully convincing the public that A and B are the same thing:

[A] We should prioritize deportations of violent criminal illegals

[B] We shouldn't deport any illegal unless he's a violent criminal

Maybe they're tacitly convincing people that A means We won't deport any non-criminal illegals until we've deported all the violent-criminal illegals?

   Who the hell knows?

   If America is dumb enough to fall for this shit, maybe we deserve to be in the dustbin of history.

Trump Expresses Doubt About His "Hard-Line" Illegal Immigration Policies

...and r/Conservative is pissed.

As am I.

The left is screwing us on this.

The Republicans have historically screwed us on this.

And now the one guy who has taken this seriously may screw us on it too...because he screwed up in other ways.

It wasn't border enforcement and deportation that wrecked the GOP in the midterms. It was, it seems, the economy, the war, generalized Trump fatigue...and Trump torpedoing candidates like Cornyn, and pushing candidates like Ramaswamy.

One of the things people agree with him about most is illegal immigration.

It's also one of the most important things for the survival of the nation. Continued mass immigration and illegal immigration will wreck the USA. It will turn us, first, into Europe...and then into a third-world country.

Personally, I rather suspect that's how we'll go out. The radical left openly wants to use immigration to wreck the west, the useful idiots on the less-radical left (such as remains of it) are afflicted by suicidal empathy, and would rather the West die than that they personally might be thought, however briefly, to be RAZIZT...and the craptastic Republicans are in the thrall of business interests that want cheap labor.

And now Trump, too....

...maybe...

Time for Stephen Miller to get to work, I reckon.

The Texas Governorship Disaster

Understand the implications of what happened in Texas last night. Gina Hinojosa has called on Gov. Abbott to end state & local cooperation with ICE & she can order that on day one. Hinojosa voted against the 2017 SB 4 as a TX state rep. The bill was essentially a sanctuary cities ban and required TX law enforcement to cooperate with ICE detainers. She then voted against another SB 4 in 2023, which made it a state crime to cross illegally into Texas. Should there be another border crisis in coming years, there will likely be no resistance from Texas at the border. No Texas DPS, no TX National Guard, no razor wire or water buoys, and no Operation Lone Star, which Hinojosa called a “dog and pony show” and “political theater”. Remember when 15,000 Haitians surged illegally into Del Rio, TX in 2021 under the international bridge? That was only stopped because Texas DPS responded on Abbott’s orders and physically blocked further crossings by lining up their cruisers to form a wall. The Biden Border Patrol was caught off guard and offered almost no resistance, except for some horseback agents who were falsely slandered for “whipping”. Additionally, because Republicans failed to pass any legislation codifying President Trump’s border security measures, if Dems take the White House in 2028, that Dem president could, if he/she wants to, reverse every single Trump border security policy immediately upon taking office because they were all done at the executive level, and they can order Border Patrol to go back to a passive catch & release policy like we saw under Biden.

National Review: [Electoral] Armageddon

I think we've gotta blame us.

We're up against a party composed largely of abject loons...and we weren't up to the challenge.

I mean...whose fault is that?

Stepman on Trump's Long List of Administrative Victories

And this doesn't even directly address his general anti-woke efforts as a separate category. Nor his nuking of the Biden admin's anti-free-speech programs, nor this administration's excellent work on Second Amendment rights...

   When you put all this stuff in one place, it makes you shudder to think what would have happened had Harris won.

   Of course, on many of these fronts our current excellent SCOTUS was instrumental...so I'll be rooting hard for at least a 50/50 Senate split tonight. If the Pubs lose Texas--especially to the moonbat Talarico, that's all on Trump. Maybe the last-minute developments in Michigan and Alaska will give 'em a boost there.

Is Islam Incompatible With America?

I don't have a specific view on this. My interest is in the general point: some religions, ideologies, etc. are incompatible with America, this fact much be faced, and it is at least reasonable to believe that people committed to those things should not be admitted--not, at least, as residents or citizens. This is an unpleasant realization--but being unpleasant doesn't make something false.

   The contemporary progressive-left and radical-left's view on this is, of course, the same as their view on most reasonable beliefs: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THAT'S RAZIZT, RAZIZT REEEEEEEEEEE.

   Political correctness is their guiding star, and it's the view that facts and reason must be subordinated to leftist ideology--even asking the question is racist. Let alone seriously considering the arguments.
