FRED OLIVA: For those who aren't sure how Capitalism works

J. MICHAEL WALLER: The only reason to get rid of the Electoral College is to build a one-party state. The Founders created the Electoral College to protect the small states from the large.

ANNA D. WEST: This is what modern Hollywood films present us instead. Interfaith dialogue and a Saladin who respects the cross more than....the Crusaders. This is how you end up with CAIR endorsed candidates winning office.

from Anna D. West,

When Saladin took Jerusalem, 1187, he destroyed all the crosses, including the relic of the True Cross which the Muslims took in battle. They paraded them before Christians before destroying them, even urinating on some of them.  
He had 200-300 Christian Knights beheaded while he watched. He had 8000 women and children enslaved that day alone, including noble women and nuns forced into concubinage. Muslims enthusiastically described the deflowering and r*pe of the Christian women. Through his entire campaign it's estimated that 40-50k Christians were enslaved. This is what modern Hollywood films present us instead. Interfaith dialogue and a Saladin who respects the cross more than....the Crusaders.

This is how you end up with CAIR endorsed candidates winning office. A population fed CAIR-endorsed films like this one. 

The 1935 film, directed by Cecil B. De Mille, is titled, The Crusades.

Raynald of Chatillon, 1125-1187.

SCOTT MECHKOWSKI: Plenty never showed up at all. Immigration judges issued 485,456 removal orders in fiscal 2025, and according to the Congressional Research Service, 306,557 of them were in absentia. ICE is funded through 2029.

from Scott Mechkowski,

Start with the law itself. The Immigration and Nationality Act is one of the thickest statutes Congress has ever passed. Look at the grounds that make someone removable from this country, and you’ll find the criminal ones are a small slice: section 212(a)(2) on the inadmissibility side and section 237(a)(2) on the deportability side. Nearly everything else is non-criminal. Entering without inspection. Overstaying a visa. Visa fraud. Falsely claiming to be a citizen. Violating the terms of the visa you came in on.

That’s by design. Removal is a civil process. Congress never wrote an immigration law that only applies to criminals, and no president of either party has ever enforced one. The Obama administration removed 438,421 people in fiscal 2013. In 2014, Janet Murguía, head of the pro-amnesty National Council of La Raza, branded Obama the “deporter-in-chief” and complained that people with no criminal record were being sent home. She called the label a fact. She was right, and she made my point for me. Under the same law ICE enforces today, a Democratic president removed people who had never been convicted of anything, and Democrats in Washington kept writing the checks.

Talk about your due process.  It's endless.

Here’s what the word leaves out. A final order of removal is the end of the line, not the beginning. The alien was served a Notice to Appear with the charges and a hearing date. An immigration judge heard the case. He could bring a lawyer, present evidence, and apply for asylum, withholding of removal, protection under the Convention Against Torture, or cancellation of removal. If he lost, he could appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals and then to a federal circuit court. He could file motions to reopen and ask for a stay. Many were free on release the whole time, on the promise they’d show up and comply.   
Plenty never showed up at all. Immigration judges issued 485,456 removal orders in fiscal 2025, and according to the Congressional Research Service, 306,557 of them were in absentia. The alien didn’t come to court. Not for the hearing, and not for the asylum claim; many of them filed themselves. 
That’s how you end up with roughly 1.6 million aliens on ICE’s non-detained docket with final orders, up from 1.29 million in October 2023. These aren’t people waiting on a decision. The decision was made. They decided it didn’t apply to them.  
And a lot of these “non-criminals” aren’t even that. Entering the country illegally is a federal misdemeanor under 8 U.S.C. 1325. Willfully failing to depart after a final order is a federal crime under 8 U.S.C. 1253. In the headlines, “non-criminal” usually means never charged, not never broke the law. A man who has spent ten years defying an immigration judge’s order is a fugitive. If an American walked away from a court judgment for a decade, nobody would call his record clean.

Democrats won both houses of Congress on Tuesday, and they’ll spend the next two years holding hearings about “non-criminals.” Fine. Hold them. But section 241 of the INA directs the government to detain and remove aliens under final orders, and gives it 90 days to do it. ICE is funded through 2029. If Congress wants a criminals-only immigration law, it can try to pass one. Until then, ICE enforces the one on the books.

STEVEN WELLIEVER: Lenin [1920] insisted that in a struggle against the 'Left', Communists needed to conform to the character of the religious structures in each country for a successful revolution. Why rely on Rogan when Lenin made the plan 106 years ago?

JOHN GUANDOLO: Until Americans . . . actually recognize we're in a war. What you're seeing right now is the Islamic movement / communist movement seizing real overt power in the United States.

Stella Escobedo opens with a reference to the midterms.  But I can't find this particular video on her YouTube channel.  Like John says, "We aer working on getting it back to you in another medium."  

The midterms are over.  Big loss for the GOP.  John Guandolo, is a former FBI Special Agent, National Security expert.  Is the Iran War to blame? 

No.  The enemy is to blame.  This is like 9/11.  Until Americans pull their heads out of their backsides, and actually recognize we're in a war.  And the election process is one line of operation of many in this war.  What you're seeing right now is the Islamic movement / communist movement seizing real overt power in the United States.  And besides Iran, you can't you can't on one hand wage war against Iran and talk about how evil they are and then kiss the ass of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and do business with them and pretend like they're our friends.  Or have the vice president of the United States say, "We love Pakistan," while Pakistan's ISI is running intense intelligence operations against your Administration to get the nitwit we call the vice president to make a comment like that.

Everyday and moment that Tucker Carlson and the rest of the toxic people spent talking about Israel, they literally took their eyes off the prize. Am I right?

You're right.  It's not the Iran War.  It's not "there aren't enough McDonald's in Yemen."  It's not "the Muslims aren't educated enough."  It's there is a war that is being waged by hostile foreign powers: China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Qatar, UAE, Turkey, and others using thousands of US-based proxies.  

JOHN GUANDOLO: CAIR is a Hamas organization. By not identifying CAIR as a terrorist organization you give Hamas room to operate in your community while simultaneously lying to the American people who read your publication about the grave threat it poses to the communities in which it operates.

from John Guandolo, 

Stephanie, as a journalist standards of professional conduct require you to do at least some due diligence before merely calling CAIR a “muslim advocacy” group. CAIR was founded by the US Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestine Committee which is Hamas. CAIR is a Hamas organization. Hamas is a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization. A partial statement of facts can be found below. By not identifying CAIR as a terrorist organization you give Hamas room to operate in your community while simultaneously lying to the American people who read your publication about the grave threat it poses to the communities in which it operates. #CAIRisHamas

Darializa Avila Chevalier, a Democratic congressional candidate, made the statement, "I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me," in a now-deleted tweet from 2019.

On Twitter (now X), on December 23, 2019. Darializa Avila Chevalier (then using the account @darializabonet) posted: “I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me .” The post is archived on the Wayback Machine (status ID 1209247594439946243). Screenshots of it show a timestamp of around 3:01 PM that day. The account was a personal one she used before entering politics; she later deleted it (around May 2022). The tweet resurfaced in 2026 during her successful Democratic primary campaign for New York’s 13th Congressional District and was confirmed as authentic by Snopes and other fact-checker.  She has since addressed the backlash, 

expressing regret over the pain it caused while framing it in the context of her feelings at the time. 

That doesn't sound like an apology for her actions or conduct or disrespect.  It sounds like she's trying to claim that she's got religious powers over people's feelings and the power to wash away hurt feelings.  Bring back witch burnings. 

LINUXHIPPIE: This is happening in every state. At the heart of all the Revolutions is the modern era---Lawyers.

🇺🇸 Nancie Givens, former executive director of the Arkansas Supreme Court’s Office of Professional Programs, was charged Thursday with 65 counts of tampering with a public record. Authorities allege she altered bar exam scores across at least 8 administrations from July 2020 to July 2025, moving points between examinees so some reached the 270 passing threshold while at least 1 passing score was lowered to failing.

PETE HEGSETH:

WHAT THE DIRECTIVE ACTUALLY ACTIVATED

The September 22 memorandum, publicly announced September 28, directed the Department of War to use:

  • U.S. Cyber Command to identify and counter foreign cyber threats.

  • The NSA and other defense intelligence agencies to collect information about foreign interference.

  • Joint operations with the Department of Homeland Security to counter cyber threats.

It did not order troops to polling precincts. Axios specifically reported that the directive did not direct military personnel to the polls.  Axios+2

WHAT ASSURANCES WERE GIVEN ABOUT TROOPS?

There were two important developments:

  1. August 31: Joint Chiefs Chairman General Dan Caine said the military had no plans to send federal military personnel or federalized National Guard members to polling places, or to seize ballots or voting machines.  Investing.com+1

  2. October 1: The Pentagon gave Senator Elissa Slotkin written confirmation that it had no plan to deploy active-duty troops or federalized National Guard to polling sites.  Senator Elissa Slotkin

WHAT HAPPENED ON NOVEMBER 3 2026?

The reporting published November 3 and 4 indicates:

No reported military deployment at polling places
  • USA Today reported that armed federal authorities had not appeared at polling places to question voters or seize election materials.  AOL

  • The Washington Post reported November 4 that there were no reports of military troops or ICE agents being deployed to polling places.  The Washington Post

  • The Justice Department did deploy more than 900 election monitors to approximately 120 jurisdictions in all 50 states. These were monitors, not military enforcement troops.  The Washington Post+1

WHAT ABOUT THE LAW?

Federal law, 18 U.S.C. § 592, generally makes it a federal offense to station troops or armed federal personnel at a place where an election is being held, subject to a narrow exception involving armed enemies of the United States.

My conclusion: Hegseth's plan was put into action as a military intelligence and cybersecurity initiative. The available reporting does not show that it was implemented by placing military enforcement troops at voting precincts. 

remember your heritage

ISIDORE OF SEVILLE: "To commit a crime is to kill the soul, but to despair is to fall into hell."

"Despair Is a Sin for a Reason: The Only Way Out Is Through, and You Gotta Build Through It," The American Tribue, March 10. 2026. 

Despair is a sin for a reason: it is an outgrowth of faithlessness. Further, it is a political sin, for a man who believes nothing can be saved generally stops trying to save anything. Aquinas held it was not the gravest sin but the most dangerous, because of what follows. "When hope is given up," he wrote, "men rush headlong into sin, and are drawn away from good works." Isidore of Seville put it harder: "To commit a crime is to kill the soul, but to despair is to fall into hell."

Much is said about realism. Realism can be good. Realism that gives way to despair is not.

DIVERSITY RISING LIKE A HYDRA

AMJAD TAHA: When the mullahs in Iran took over, socialists helped them, and later, the Islamists killed them all. This is the most dangerous moment for Western civilization.

JOHN GUANDOLO: [Michele Bachmann] cited evidence . . . the largest terrorism financing case ever successfully prosecuted in American history. The response was swift. John McCain, John Boehner, @LindseyGrahamSC , Scott Brown, and @marcorubio all publicly condemned Congresswoman Bachmann.

Note how the communists at any of the Leftist rags, in this instance it is Salon, treat those who question motives of communists, Muslims, and their alliance. They try to make Bachmann out to be a crazy witch. What else would a Muslim-funded rag do?


Americans need to be grateful for this woman's courage and her resolve.  She is sorely missed in Minnesota politics.

In 2012, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, 2007-2015, sent letters to 5 Inspector Generals inside the U.S. federal government calling on them to investigate the counterintelligence penetration of government agencies by Muslim Brotherhood operatives. She cited evidence used in the largest terrorism financing case ever successfully prosecuted in American history [US v Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF), Northern District of Texas, 2008]. The response was swift. John McCain, John Boehner, , Scott Brown, and all publicly condemned Congresswoman Bachmann. Worldwide media attacked her. On the floor of the Senate, John McCain condemned Bachmann and defended Huma Abedin, the right hand for who was named in the letter because of her family's direct ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. [In fact, Huma Abedin's mother Saleha works for 2 organizations which are part of the Union for Good, a designated #TERRORIST organization led at the time by the leading Muslim Brotherhood legal jurist on the planet - Yusuf al Qaradawi]. I find this personally interesting since I briefed John McCain with 2 colleagues in a meeting set up and attended by a former National Security Advisor to the President. So John McCain can't say he didn't know. Neither can Marco Rubio.

Gräuelscenen aus Griechenland: "Comfortably the monster smoked his pipe beneath them, had himself served with sherbet, and rejoiced in the cries of fear and the death agonies of the guiltless little ones, for they were, after all, only — Christian children"

The Germans who witnessed the atrocities committed by Muslims against Christians during the Ottoman period in Greece wrote: "The murder of the men and the drowning of the women was still not enough for a Muslim Turk thirsting for Christian blood; the poor innocent children were also to be sacrificed.. So he had the defenseless little ones seized and mercilessly hanged from a tree. Comfortably the monster smoked his pipe beneath them, had himself served with sherbet, and rejoiced in the cries of fear and the death agonies of the guiltless little ones, for they were, after all, only — Christian children" "Gräuelscenen aus Griechenland" [or "Scenes of Horror from Greece"] "Atrocity scenes from Greece."
