The Morning report 2/14/25

Good morning kids. And a happy Valentine’s Day. In my mind, I’m picturing the scene from the Roger Corman classic The St. Valentine’s Day Massacre and imagining Musk and Trump, mowing down the Deep State with “Chicago Typewriters,” figuratively speaking nudge*nudge wink*wink!

Meanwhile, in the wake (no pun) of last week’s DC airliner crash after colliding with a Blackhawk chopper, this late breaking story is raising my eyebrow:

According to an Associated Press report, an “official” said that the plane’s mechanical issue “had to do with the cockpit windshield on the C-32, a converted Boeing 757,” and it “occurred about 90 minutes after the flight took off from Joint Base Andrews outside of Washington.” Axios global affairs correspondent Barak Ravid is reporting similar information.  Rubio’s Plane Forced to Turn Around En Route to Europe

Was the plane properly deiced or was it DEI-Iced as in sabotage? Given who and what we and Team Trump are up against on every level, to simply shrug this off as a freak incident without even considering the possibility of intentional sabotage or even unintentional incompetence, which these days is primarily driven by ideology and DEI. 

On other fronts, as the resistance to Team Trump”s legitimate authority to weed out waste, corruption, fraud and at some point insubordination to the point of actual treasonous behavior, it’s bound to get violent given politically motivated violence has not only never been disavowed by the Democrat-Left but indeed is embraced by it as a legitimate tactic to get what they want. By any means necessary is not merely what you find written on a note in a fortune cookie.

And as you scan the links especially in the Domestic Affairs and Immigration sections, you will see numerous examples of both rank insubordination and thinly veiled as well as open threats of violence in response to DOGE and the absolutely necessary roundup and deportation of as many illegal alien invaders as can be achieved. 

So from Dallas police officers who are openly declaring their refusal to do their duty in assisting ICE agents in detaining illegal aliens to DEI and other Leftist Gold bricks who are changing their names to avoid dismissal, they must be dismissed and their pension funds frozen or seized outright. If for no other reason than pour encourager les autres. 

We also have terrorist and terorist adjacent scum in and out of government encouraging resistance by any means necessary to Mustk Trump and ICE. Time for some Bondi and Discipline in cracking down on these homegrown terrorist organizations, and not merely the know foreign groups that are streaming across our borders. While we’re at it, time to look into cancerous fistulas like Bloomberg and Soros. Shutting down their phianthropic front groups and mass asset seizures are in order considering who and what they are funding. That is, the destruction of our society. 

Bloomberg is directly working to undermine the national security of us and our allies

Among the “advisors” listed on the sleepy website of something known as the Belt and Road International Green Development Coalition (BRIGC) is a senior official at Michael Bloomberg’s eponymous philanthropic organization, Bloomberg Philanthropies. The official, Antha Williams, the head of Bloomberg Philanthropies’ environmental programs, serves as an adviser to the co-chairs of the organization, who include a Chinese Communist Party official responsible for the country’s Ministry of Ecology and the Environment.

And that”s just the tip of the Thunberg.

OF course the showdown with the rogue judiciary must be won by Trump. And that means being absolutely merciless and ruthless with all the hacks in black by ignoring their blatantly anti-constitutional rulings. That opens up all kinds of cans of worms but there’s no going back now. 

By the way, be sure to catch the latest podcast (here and in the sidebar) with our good friend the erudite Michael Walsh. as we talk extensively on the qualities of leadership (vis a vis Trump) in context of Michael’s wonderful new book about battles that shaped history and the victors who won them.

Have a great Weekend!. 

And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

• The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has become one of Washington’s most powerful—and least accountable—agencies. Created under Dodd-Frank in 2010, it was Elizabeth Warren’s pet project, a progressive financial watchdog designed to operate beyond the reach of voters and elected officials. Unlike most agencies, the CFPB isn’t funded by Congress but instead pulls money directly from the Federal Reserve, shielding it from normal budgetary oversight. For years, it was led by a single director who could not even be removed by the president—a blatantly unconstitutional structure that the Supreme Court struck down in 2020.

Yesterday, instead of retreating into lawfare defense mode as everyone expected, the Trump Team unleashed the most devastating assault yet, the Deep State’s D-Day. Nobody’s covering it, but it is inescapable. You may have heard about some of the parts, but just wait till you see the big picture. (Hat tip to commenter D- thanks! – jjs)
