Biden Seen in Public With Massive Gash on His Head
September 4, 2025

□ [“Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA):  Your Rights Don't Come from God, They're Granted by the Government"]

"The notion that rights don't come from laws and don't come from the government, that's what the Iranian government believes.  So the statement that our rights do not come from our laws or our governments is extremely troubling."

And what the government gives, the government can take away.  This does effectively summarize the division we face, those who believe there is more to existence than government and those who do not.  This is also an example of why these people will always lose, simply because there is more than the government.

Their own contradiction can be seen with abortion, which is totally from the government, except when a woman disagrees with government, which must be funded by the government, which prevents a future citizen from existing.  One could defend abortion better without captivating it by the government, but then one would be purged by fellow government-worshippers.

The left will need to ignore this as quickly as possible.  They have no other options.  You can't be saying this without government permission and Trump runs the government so he can take that away?  If they're ever capable of seeing anything which isn't part of the government, they start leaving the left.  That's how collectivism works.

But as individuals, from the Founding Fathers on down, we know we don't know everything and will never know everything.  That's why their great creation was for mortal men to co-exist peacefully, even without agreeing with each other.  Government was minimized precisely to give us less reason to care whether others agreed or not.  It didn't produce rights, it protected them.  Or removes them, whatever it wants at the moment.  Leftist governments don't require the consent of the governed.

Internal Emails Reveal Joe Biden Did Not Review Thousands of Pardons Granted in Final Days

□ [“Anonymous Federal Judges Accuse Supreme Court of ‘Undermining Judicial System’ by Overturning Their Anti-Trump Rulings"]

Nice to hear that they stayed anonymous.  I'm sure no leftist will complain about government officials hiding their identities from the public.  Now the left sees a need to ignore the Constitution, which establishes the Supreme Court.  Other courts come from Congress, but these people want to ignore their higher ranks.  That's just not going to work out for them.

This is currently where the insanity is lashing out, since the left has few other options at the moment.  No one cares about Congress, whom I'm pretty sure are on vacation at the moment anyway, and didn't do much when they were earning a paycheck.  The executive branch is being purged of leftist, the media can't find an audience.  The judges are about the only tools they have and they're getting stuck.  Another one was overruled by a circuit court today.

They can still assign activist judges to cases and attack Trump that way, which takes time to overcome.  They're doing their best to release criminals, people who threatened to kill Trump or Republicans.  This is going to break, it can't last much longer.  We may soon find out which people can exist in a peaceful civilized society without the rule of law and which people can't.

David Axelrod Tells Illinois Governor Pritzker Not to Play Politics With Crime, Work With Trump

□ [“American Eagle Is a Huge Winner for its Sydney Sweeney Ad and That’s Just the Beginning"]

After the last several years, I admit I was surprised to suddenly see a hot babe who just acted like a hot babe and was attractive for all the reasons men have like since puberty.  There have certainly been other hot celebrities of the last several years yet they were quite forgettable.  Then there were all the *woke* ads from Bud Lite, et al, and it was clear the left was actively trying to remove the whole concept of feminine beauty.  And it still failed at the sight of nice set of knockers.

I suspect this is reaching out through society, particular for the younger females who really want to be attractive to the best men, and just like the attention in general.  Went to the grocery store yesterday and suddenly I saw cute ass in tights.  Spandex to show them off, and not just bloated and fat like, well, most adult females these days.  The girl was certainly cute, wearing a tight sweater that gave us a nice look without just hanging everything out.  I was almost tempted to thank her for being attractive yet sensible in a way we hardly see anymore.

But I suspect that's why she was doing it and she probably won't be the only one.  Get a productive man when you're young and inspire him to grow old with you, that's the best option.  I've also noticed the trend of young people watching old movies for the first time, and they're probably noticing how hot some of those chicks were back then, even if they're aged and leftist today.  A few generations of modern feminism haven't made people forget everything that works.

More anecdotal but there's also any number of videos of women basically crying that they're sick of having jobs, they just want a home and a family.  Not sure how serious they are, many of them are probably reaching middle age anyway, then there's the question of whether these videos were generated by A.I.  There's also the issue of why these women post videos of themselves sobbing about this stuff.  We don't see men doing that.  Anyway, it's another sign that the actual family worked for thousands of years for a reason and this nonsense is coming to a close.  Not permanently, it'll always be there and will eventually try again, but it might provide a period of peace.

Trump Administration Looking at Ways to Ban Transgender People from Purchasing Firearms

□ [“Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Vows to Publicly Read Epstein Client List on the House Floor"]

Then just go do that.  Other members of Congress are making long boring speeches, you can take your turn as well.  Oh, but she says the women who spoke yesterday have to give her a list first.  You mean you don't already have one?  Have you never talked to them in all this time?  Tell the world that you're just putting on a show without using those words.  This is just an expanded version of Bondi promising to release everything tomorrow, or whatever that guarantee was.

"These are some of the richest, most powerful people in the world that could sue these women into poverty and homelessness."  Oh horseshit, it is not a crime to say "Bill Clinton raped me" whether or not it's the truth.  There is nothing to sue about and if you REALLY care so fricking much, then I'm sure you won't let them be made homeless.  You've got money, you've got places they can live, that's that.

□ [“DOJ Deputy Chief Says They'll 'Redact Every Republican' and Leave All Democrats on Epstein Client List"]

This is another one of those sneaky videos from James O'Keefe's organization, getting someone to blab things he shouldn't, usually to impress some chick.  What he said basically sounds like the truth, that the Trump DoJ are arguing about what to release, Ghislaine Maxwell is suddenly getting benefits on what to say or what to keep quiet about, and basically all they're talking about is stuff that has already been made public.

He also adds that they are redacting Republicans, which sounds believable but also seems unlikely.  Whatever the actual truth is, whether you believe this or not probably says more about you than anything else.  The DoJ immediately pushed this guy to admit he did it to impress some chick he met on a dating app and he didn't tell her anything that wasn't already public.  The DoJ adds that he's not involved in the Epstein case in the first place.  Ok, but that doesn't make this false.

The only hope is that there's actually some plot going on here because otherwise it's pathetic and worthless.  They're not going to do anything and anything that does get released can't be believed.  It's tough to figure out what the plan might be, other than the left suddenly deciding the Epstein list is important because they're convinced Trump is on it.  So Bill Clinton or whoever hears them raving about this and has to worry what will happen when their name shows up.  That's why it just won't be believable anyway.  Whatever chance there was to expose the truth was ruined by taking so long.
