There may be a new Jackie Kennedy, but with more drive, passion, and Middle Americanness.

"A federal appeals court ruled Friday that the Trump administration can end legal protections for around 430,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela." - U.S.News

So- Trump is upholding the law as it was written. Very dictatorial, wouldn't you agree?

Douger said...

Gray skies, gray waters, kinda like our world today, but there is a light, if even so faint.

Hitlerian.

Oh, so not mortgage fraud?

Exclusive: Fed Governor Cook declared her Atlanta property as “vacation home,” documents show ~ Reuters

"A loan estimate for an Atlanta home purchased by Fed governor Lisa Cook, shows that Cook had declared the property as a “vacation home,” according to a document reviewed by Reuters.

The document, dated May 28, 2021, was issued to Cook by her credit union in the weeks before she completed the purchase and shows that she had told the lender that the Atlanta property wouldn’t be her primary residence." ~ Reuters

I look forward to reading a swarm of mea culpas from all the Athouse commentariat who wrote that she had to step down immediately, she should be put in prison, etc etc. Surely they'll be commenting any moment now, right?

Meanwhile, how many members of Trump's cabinet have actually claimed multiple properties as primary residences? Three? One couldn't make this stuff up.

A video on Orwell's essay on fascism

https://youtu.be/05FFux4uPd8?si=FmB4re9rU2LXvrsO
TIKs other videos on the nature and history of fascism/nazism are very worthwhile.

Even in the 1940s, per Orwell, the word as used at the time, had entirely lost its meaning, becoming the equivalent of calling someone or something "poopy".

Cook is out - and she will not get her job back.
Try not to kill anyone, KAK.

Jon Ericson said...

Sometimes, when constrained such as this image was due to atmospheric and meteorological issues, the image takes on a more abstract aspect and allows for a broader interpretation. I think I see a turning point.

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

Looks like Stephen King stepped in it big time.
Defamation.

buwaya said...

In US political rhetoric these days calling someone or something "fascist" is a way to create an excuse for bad behavior. Much as the USSR and fellow travellers used to do in Orwells day.

Peachy said...

sad and gray - like our hearts. The corrupt left remove all joy out of life. but there is a circle of light.

Kakistocracy said...

Peachy suddenly embraces pronouns as Charlie Kirk’s killer is now to forever be known as “they”.

The Vault Dweller said...

Well the sky is gray, I doubt all the leaves are brown though.

Valentine Smith said...

A document viewed by Reuters. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Your Party, pal

The Vault Dweller said...

This has been drowned out because of the much bigger news, but Bruce Dumont just passed away. He hosted a radio program called "Beyond the Beltway" which I used to listen to.

Peachy said...

Hi. Happened to watch Jesse Watters tonight. Very good!
His interview with Tim Pool starts at 11:58 mark. I recommend the whole show but at least watch that. Thanks.

FormerLawClerk said...

Apt photo.

Dark days on the horizon.

No sun.

But it will rise.

buwaya said...

Russia was attacking very close to the Polish border. Uke and probably Polish jammers probably knocked out the,Russian gps-equivalent on those things. Its a normal countermeasure.

buwaya said...

Not a Russian mistake. They meant to be close to the border. Probably intimidation. Turned into a decent NATO air defense exercise, four countries assets involved to track and intercept.

Maynard said...

Re: Fascism

Communists called everyone to their right (including other communists) “fascists”.

buwaya said...

Come to think of it, the Russians and fellow travellers are still calling everyone fascists.

Peachy said...

Maynard..
Oh really? hmmmm. History repeats.

Peachy said...

AOC does a terrible job representing "her district"
Sure would be nice to oust her.

Achilles said...

If it wasn't for X Tyler Robinson would be a Registered Republican that donated money to Trump and wore Trump t-shirts.

Fortunately the left does not dominate the town square anymore. Their lies were revealed in real time.

RCOCEAN II said...

Putin didn't kill Charlie Kirk. It was the left. The people who accuse Trump and the USA Right of being "putin lovers".

The people who support Zelensky and Netenyahu and the globalists hate Trump. And hated Charlie Kirk.

Peachy said...

This will never happen. The democratic Party is 100% rot.

Wesley Hunt
@WesleyHuntTX
You will NOT gaslight your way out of this.

NOT this time.

The Democrat Party must finally look in the mirror, condemn the political violence they’ve unleashed, and apologize for poisoning an entire generation into believing conservatives are “fascist threats” to democracy.

Tyler Robinson got on that roof, took aim, and assassinated Charlie Kirk, because their propaganda worked.

One of the most common ways to defeat drones is to spoof or jam the GPS signals and tell the drone to fly somewhere or to fly in a random direction.

The Russians didn't attack Poland. They aren't stupid.

People who think the Russians actually tried to attack Poland are stupid.

Ukraine is about to fall. Several globalist EU governments are about to fall. NATO is getting desperate. I expect some shenanigans will be attempted to provide NATO an excuse to get directly involved in Ukraine and to arrest some "Putin Sympathizers."

Appropriate and elegant photo. Thanks

Sunrise - 6:29. Perhaps that is what God's Grace looks like.

RCOCEAN II said...

Putin and Iran never called me a white supremacist. Neither them supported open borders for the USA. Or laughed when Charlie Kirk was shot.
