Hanging By A Thread
When it comes to explanations, a picture is worth a thousand words because of its dramatic clarity. Sometimes they are worth far more, as is the case with this photo of Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem.
It’s important that we all understand exactly what we’re actually looking at. This is a picture of Secretary Noem at El Salvador’s Terrorist Confinement Center. As the name implies, that’s where the worst of the worst are locked up and kept away from society.
It’s also the same prison where President Trump sent hundreds of illegal alien gang members that Joe Biden allowed to walk into our country without vetting. That’s how bad these thugs are.
But what we’re really looking at is the juxtaposition of civilization and barbarism. Noem represents Western Civilization, the rule of law, and American greatness, all of which are hanging by a thread.
Behind her are the barbaric enemies of Western Civilization. They’re not only murderers and rapists, they enjoy the violence. They luxuriate in the pain and suffering of others. The transnational gang Tren de Aragua likes to kill and literally dice up its victims.
Noem also represents all the innocent people who were assaulted, raped, and murdered by the monsters behind her. Americans like these below:
The Enemies Within
Whether it’s ancient Rome or El Paso, barbarians have always been and are still at the gates of civilization. Everything you will depend on today -- your relative personal safety, your assumption that your children will be safe, your ability to go to work, and your freedom to worship -- all depends on successfully defending this civilization.
And that means keeping people like those behind Kristi Noem behind bars. That’s why we need secure borders, a strong military, and tough leaders like Donald Trump.
But there are also enemies within the gates.
It is alarming and unnerving that powerful interests in the United States -- in the halls of Congress, in major media outlets, on university campuses, in prominent law firms, and in our courts -- have very little interest in the civilization Noem represents and defends.
Instead of protecting innocent Americans, these radical leftists are all in on ensuring that the criminal thugs behind those bars have every possible protection the Constitution of the United States affords American citizens, protections that hundreds of thousands of Americans have died for.
They have no interest whatsoever in the thousands of Americans who have been deprived of those rights by barbarians like those in that prison.
It is sobering to know that if your neighbor works at an elite big city law firm, is an Ivy League college professor, or is a “woke” activist, they may very well be more interested in protecting the barbarians still roaming our country than they are in protecting you and your family.
America’s elites were mortified that Kristi Noem once shared the story about putting down a dog that kept biting family members. That was unthinkable. But they are all in on frustrating the process of getting barbarians, who put down our citizens, in prison and/or out of the country.
Far too many callous “elites” are more concerned about guaranteeing that illegal aliens who rape, murder, torture, push drugs on our kids, and cooperate with the enemies of America have a lawyer and are informed of their rights than they are in defending the civilization that keeps us all safe.
How else can you explain the left’s insane open border policies? Or Judge Boasberg’s bizarre order to turn the planes around and bring vicious gang members back to America?
Fake News Over Real News
Early this morning, law enforcement officials arrested one of the top three MS-13 gang leaders in America. He was apprehended in Woodbridge, Virginia, less than 30 miles south of Washington, D.C. But you probably won’t hear much about that on the evening news.
During the first Trump administration, Democrats and their media allies took the Russia collusion hoax and used it to drown out everything good Donald Trump did until COVID became their default narrative.
Now, they are trying to do the same thing with the nothingburger of a leftist reporter mistakenly getting on a Signal conversation. I don’t think it is going to work, but the left is beating that drum hard right now.
President Trump announced new tariffs yesterday to protect the American auto industry and noted that more foreign car companies are building plants and creating jobs here in America to avoid the tariffs.
Do you think the media cared at all about this good news? No. The only thing reporters wanted to talk about was the “Signal chat.”
If the Signal chat mistake had never happened, the same hyperventilating media would have given virtually no coverage to the incredibly successful strike on Houthis. Or the fact that it was the first significant strike by America after 174 Houthi attacks on American ships and military personnel in the last two years under failing Joe Biden.
There is no way the media could put a negative spin on Trump’s military strike. The successful military mission does nothing to advance their agenda of bringing Trump down or paralyzing his administration to ensure that no one like him is ever elected again.
The leftist media also wants to advance the cause of secular globalism, run on Marxist rather than constitutional principles, as the future of America.
Destroy Donald Trump and fundamentally transform America -- that is the left’s goal.
So, any success that makes Americans feel pride in our country, that helps secure our borders, or helps American workers will be downplayed and minimized in every possible way.
Advancing conservative policies would be hard enough if we were just fighting Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and the ACLU.
But we are fighting the entire ruling class in America -- university presidents and professors, the CEOs of globalist corporations, every Democrat down to the precinct level, an unforgiveable percentage of the GOP establishment, and a majority of judges on the federal courts because Mitch McConnell did not fight nearly as hard against Biden appointees as Democrats did against Trump appointees in his first term.
Media Malfeasance
Here’s something else the media won’t tell you: The Houthis are barbarians. They are tribal Islamists who have been taught by Iran how to launch drones and missiles. Armed with little technology, they have been able to disrupt international commerce, threaten our Navy, and attack our ally, Israel.
Just like he is fighting the barbarians who poured across borders that Biden, Harris, and their leftist judges did not protect us from, Donald Trump is going after the Houthi barbarians who are disrupting trade and threatening the lives of our soldiers and sailors.
And what’s the media concerned about? A chat session on how we’re going after the barbarians. But they don’t care about that. They claim the call put American military personnel in danger.
But what put American lives in danger is the fact that Sleepy Joe never seriously responded to the Iranian puppets for the last four years. In fact, he lifted sanctions on the Houthis and refused to call them terrorists!
The attack authorized by President Trump and carried out by the team on the Signal call has saved the lives of U.S. military members.
And Even More Leaks
There are claims today that personal data of several Trump officials has been found online. This is being breathlessly reported as yet another serious security failure.
But here’s a key detail that is being largely ignored: Reporters found this information using “hacked customer data that has been published on the web.” So, these Trump officials, like many other people, were hacked.
This also happened to top officials in the Biden administration. But it was reported very differently. The media then told us, “U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo and senior officials at the State Department were victims” of an uncovered data breach.
So, when it happened to Democrats, they were victims. When it happens to our people, they’re careless rubes who can’t be trusted to lock the front door. They are blamed for the theft of their own information.
Just another example of the propagandist stew we are being fed every day.
An Offensive Question
CIA Director John Ratcliffe was on Capitol Hill yesterday testifying before the House Intelligence Committee. He was there to deliver the Agency’s annual worldwide threat assessment, informing members of the serious dangers facing our country. But that wasn’t what Democrats wanted to talk about.
The hearing went off the rails when Rep. Jimmy Gomez (D-CA) asked Ratcliffe if Pete Hegseth was drunk or had been drinking before the Signal chat. (He was not!) Ratcliffe shot back:
“You know, no. I’m going to answer that. I think that’s an offensive line of questioning. . .
“For the last two days, members of the Intelligence [committees] have been asking questions about a Signal messaging group and not asking questions -- from Democrats either in the Senate or the House -- on China, Russia, Iran, and the real threats. . .
“No one’s asked me about my second day on the job here, where I lit the fuse that led to a foreign government participating with us to capture one of the senior planners of the Abbey Gate bombing that killed 13 Americans. . . But instead, we’re getting questions about whether or not someone has drinking habits.”
Well done, Director Ratcliffe!
