Friends, something big is happening...in Iran, where mass protests have the regime of the mullahs running scared. Iranians have groaned under theocratic tyranny for decades, and now there's widespread talk of bringing back the Pahlavis, i.e. the royal family that was ousted in 1979. I say: hear hear! A mostly secular constitutional monarchy would be a vast improvement on the mess that Iran has now. It would be wonderful to see Iran become, once again, a key U.S. ally instead of a regional troublemaker. Let's hope it comes to pass. It's all in the hands of the Iranian people, at this stage.

In other news, the usual suspects -- elderly white liberals -- are incensed by recent violence between ICE agents and anti-ICE protestors. Rioters are an annoyance to the federal government, but one has to wonder whether at some point (blue) city and state authorities might become a bigger threat... Those Dems are getting awfully unhinged about Trumpian "fascism"! Nothing is impossible, in the age of Trump. It bears watching.

Finally, this article aptly summarizes the strong state of the U.S. economy. Even though it's not producing a huge number of new jobs, the truth is that we don't need to, thanks to the exit of millions of illegal immigrants. Economic growth is very solid and may even accelerate in the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, the trade deficit has plummeted. There's so much to celebrate!

Dr. Waddy from Jack: Apparently "local officials" in Minnesota are outraged that they are not included informal investigation of the shooting. It is entirely reasonable to assume that their only motive would be to "hang" that officer. TDS defines intentions in anything having to do with President Trump.
ReplyDeleteSorry, far leftists, you imposed wokeism on us so you'll just have to stew while we impose the presumption of comprehensive TDS bigotry on your actions!

ReplyDelete"Rushing to judgement" is the only kind of judgement that the Left is capable of, where violent confrontations between law enforcement and the public are concerned. What the Left ought to be asking itself is: do we want the violence in America's cities to get worse, or do we want it to abate? They ought to think carefully about their answer to that question too, because if they test Trump he might drop the hammer on them!
ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy from Jack: The hate besotted far left lynch mob has mobilized once again and is hastening to its murderous task, cynically egged on by their America hating commissars. They are light years beyond reason; violent reaction is their mindless and sole determination. They are fully confident in their indisputable merit in this; they cannot be convinced otherwise, they must be objectively defeated, disarmed and utterly discredited.
ReplyDeleteThey must be met with superior resolve by the forces of democratically Constituted order and its indispensable framework, the rule of law. They MUST not be suffered to hound this officer to ruin. For America to fail to ensure him the full range of his rights and full consideration of the harrowing demands of his job would be pusillanimous beyond measure and forever deeply shameful.
They cannot be suffered to play havoc with impunity; they must be met with all the force necessary to stop them in their tracks and assure them that America WILL NOT countenance their anarchic savagery and their summary onslaughts on any they hold to have done them wrong! The time has arrived for complete and decisive confrontation of these lawless far left maddened barbarians. Should that necessitate the arrests of those who lead them , no matter their station they must be taken lawfully in hand.
". . . TDS defines THEIR intentions . . . " Finally. Jack
