Over The Line

Government Thugs, Politics

 I see that Tulsi Gabbard made it over the NO vote of soon-to-be-gone Mitch McConnell and was conformed as Director of National Intelligence (DNI).  Excellent.

Now I’m wondering:  who, exactly, approved the action which placed her on a “security risk” (SSSS*) list last year after she switched parties and became a Trump supporter?

If it was her predecessor, then he’s gone, no big deal.  Then we have to ask:  who  motivated the action, if it wasn’t him?

Either way, I hope that Gabbard goes after the asshole — because if a former member of Congress can get blacklisted that way by the government, who is safe?

(Oh, and one last thought:  I just hope that in her new positions she leaves behind all her earlier anti-2A bullshit.)

*SSSS:  the code letters printed on your boarding pass that cause an “enhanced security check” when you check in.  (FYI:  it once happened to me too, for reasons never specified.)

Lifeline

Trumpism

You all remember that POTUS Trump signed an Executive Order which offered asylum to those South African farmers under threat of property confiscation (and worse) at the hands of the terrorist organization ANC.  Here’s a reminder, and then an interesting response from a representative of said farmers:

In your order, you made special provisions for Afrikaners to be given opportunities in the United States. We sincerely appreciate this, as many farmers in South Africa face dire circumstances—threats of land expropriation, increasing rural crime, and discriminatory access to financing and other critical resources. For some, the opportunity you have extended may be their only viable path forward.

That said, as a fundamental patriot yourself, you will understand our commitment to stay and fight for our home. Africa is in our blood, and despite the challenges, the vast majority of us have chosen to struggle within the ambit of our constitution.

We are also grateful for the programs that have allowed over 100,000 young South Africans to work on American farms, gaining valuable skills, exposure to advanced agricultural technologies, and a financial foundation to launch their own careers in the agricultural value chains back home.

Please do not close that door. These opportunities inspire and equip our young people and are not available for them in South Africa. It give them a launching pad for their livelihoods when they return from the USA. We are not asking for any young South Africans to be excluded – for us it is enough to be included on merit.

And then he goes on to describe the problem, in detail.  It’s worth a read, I promise you.

I invite you to imagine how this letter would have been received by a Democrat administration of the Obama/Biden sort.

“Moderate”

Muzzies, Psychos, Two-Minute Hate

When looking at this little show (via Insty, thankee Squire), I was struck by one thing that CAIR chick screamed:

“I demand Jihad, I want ISIS to kill all of you.”

…which right there gives us the difference between a “moderate” Muslim and an “extremist” Muslim:  the extremist (ISIS) wants to kill all Jews, while the moderate (CAIR) wants ISIS to kill all Jews, and is quite okay with that.

Hope that clears everything up for you.

 

Re-Directing The Dollars

Foreign Affairs, Gummint

Something struck me when I was reading this fine report about the closure of the dreadful USAID department, and it relates to budget priorities.  Consider this little litany of silliness:

Now just in cash terms, those items alone account for about $7.5million, being sent to furriners.

The question:  Wouldn’t those dollars have been better spent by sending them to those folks in North Carolina blown out of their homes by tropical storm Helene? 

And the corollary question:  Wouldn’t those “hundreds of thousands of meals” been more appreciated by those same North Carolinians, many of whom, months after the storm, are still living in TENTS?

Let’s put all this into concrete terms that people can understand.

The problem with being such a wealthy country is that sometimes we’re blase about sums of money that seem trivial in the grand scheme of things;  $7.5million doesn’t seem like a lot of money compared to other budgetary expenditures, and indeed it isn’t at a macro level.

But let’s convert that “macro” to “micro”.  Giving $75,000 dollars each to a hundred families in desperate need of assistance — American families, let me remind you — has the potential to turn their lives around completely.  And that’s worth a lot more than a ticket to an LGBTOSTFU opera in Colombia.

Stop pissing money away on foreigners and start looking after American taxpayers.

Fun And Games, Africa Style

Africa

To the surprise of absolutely no African nor anyone who knows anything at all about the Dark Continent, this happened in the Congo — a.k.a. the Balkans of Africa:

Hundreds of women were raped and then burnt alive after Rwandan-backed rebels sparked chaos by storming into the Congolese city of Goma, it has emerged.

The atrocity took place during a mass jail break from the Munzenze jail last week, as M23 fighters clashed with the Congolese army during deadly gun battles. 

According to the UN, female inmates were butchered in their wing in the notoriously overcrowded prison after men forced their way in and went on a rampage. 

In this latest round of inter-tribal warfare, I understand that many UN peacekeeping troops were also killed.  Now as much as I detest the United Nations as an organization, it seems to me that the UN should, finally, admit defeat when it comes to les affaires d’Afrique, and get the hell out of the way so that these assholes can carry on slaughtering each other until the last one standing kills himself.

Letting Africa sink, to coin a phrase.

Needless to say, it’s absolutely no place for the U.S. to get involved, whether financially or (gawd forbid) militarily.

Consorting With The Devil

Africa, Trumpism

I’ve written before that it should be no surprise that South Africa’s ANC government is always going to align itself with evil countries and terrorist organizations, because the ANC itself is at heart a terrorist organization and always has been (especially when its leader, the sainted Nelson Mandela, was in prison for terrorist activities).

So the news about the ANC government legalizing property seizure (from Whites, duh) is very definitely par for the course.

However, in this case, the ANC has discovered (probably to their complete shock and surprise) that such evil actions may have consequences that may not be to their liking or advantage:

President Donald Trump announced Sunday that he is suspending all U.S. aid to South Africa after the latter passed a law on land expropriation, which many fear could lead to Zimbabwe-style seizures of land owned by white citizens.

…to which our only response should be:

More like this please, Yer Trumpness.
