Good morning kids. The focus yet again is on Minneapolis and two totally shocking stories. Not really. First, as a number of you noted in yesterday’s comments the Emshpritzening of America’s sweetheart, the de-clitorized criminal immigration fraudster and incest practitioner Bro-Fo Omar was likely a hack amateur-hour fake out.
But this incident reeks of inauthenticity. She appears to make eye contact with her attacker just before he gets up, as if she is signaling to him that the time for the attack had come. She walks toward him after he sprays the liquid on her, instead of running away, as any person undergoing an unexpected attack would be likely to do. And she calmly continues her speech, without any apparent concern for the possibility that the substance could be lethal and that she should go wash it off. . .Both leftists and Muslims in the U.S. have demonstrated a strong affinity for claiming victimhood . . . Omar’s spraying incident, as transparently fake as it is, is one of the clumsiest examples of this technique, but it’s understandable, after having been coddled for years, that Omar would assume that she could get away with anything, no matter how flimsy.
Disturbing new footage shows Alex Pretti armed, spitting at federal immigration officers and smashing the taillights of their black SUV during a chaotic clash more than a week before he was fatally shot by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis. The video, which the BBC said it has verified, captured the ICU nurse yelling at agents while they were driving away during a heated Jan. 13 protest before booting the back of the car, prompting them to jump out and tackle him to the ground, according to footage from The News Movement. The man — who was wearing similar clothing in the video to what Pretti had on when he was fatally shot last Saturday — was taken to the ground by at least five agents, who deployed tear gas into the whistle-blowing crowd during the wild confrontation.
With that, I ask the question are Alex Prettis and Renee Goods born or are they made?
“Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than evil.” — Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Bonhoeffer’s insight remains one of the most unsettling diagnoses of moral collapse ever written—not because it flatters our intelligence, but because it strips away comforting illusions. . .
. . . One of the defining features of ideological stupidity is its joyfulness. Evil often appears dour and grim in our imagination, but in reality it frequently presents itself as exuberant, righteous, even celebratory. Once responsibility is dissolved into a collective—“the movement,” “the cause,” “history”—guilt evaporates. The individual no longer bears moral weight. He obeys. And obedience feels liberating.
That is why crowds can chant with glee while calling for harm. That is why activists can smile while threatening federal officers. That is why vandalism is rebranded as “resistance” and intimidation as “speech.” The participants do not experience themselves as committing wrongdoing. They experience themselves as morally elevated.
Another aspect is that beyond Pretti’s emotional state and rationale he knew that he also had the political and judicial cover that would shield him from any potential repercussions such as prison, and this attitude likely fed into his fatal delusion/illusion that he was in no mortal danger whatsoever and so could attack with impunity.
A coalition of left-wing district attorneys largely funded by billionaire George Soros launched an initiative to prosecute federal immigration agents in their jurisdictions, setting the stage for a potential showdown with the Trump administration. Many of those same prosecutors oppose mandatory minimum prison sentences for violent crimes and have released murderers back on the streets.
The Project for the Fight Against Federal Overreach (FAFO), led by Philadelphia district attorney Larry Krasner and Minneapolis district attorney Mary Moriarty and launched on Wednesday, calls itself “an effort to hold federal officials accountable when they exceed their lawful authority.” The nine-member coalition plans to convene next month “to share strategies for pushing back against the lawless actions of federal forces in states and cities around the country.” Under the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution, federal agents are generally immune from state prosecution for acts carried out within the scope of their official duties.
Let this sink in for a moment: Soros DA’s vow to hunt Ice Like Nazi War criminals – considering George Soros himself is an admitted and proud actual Nazi war criminal. He and his father worked for the Nazis during their occupation of Hungary by helping them identify and round up the Jews of Budapest and elsewhere, who were then loaded onto cattle trains and shipped directly to the gas chambers and crematoria of Birkenau. they were paid handsomely by the Nazis and allowed to expropriate the dispatched Jews’ property/money which was the seed capital for Soros’ financial empire that has fueled much of the anti-American and anti-Western subversion over the past 50 years or more.
The chutzpocrisy here is off the charts almost to the point of hilarity. While the torch has been passed to son Alex Soros, that George Soros has not been stripped of his citizenship and deported back to Hungary for being an admitted bona fide Nazi war criminal in violation of his immigration status is an infamy. I know that I and others almost from the moment Trump was sworn in for his first term were shrieking our lungs out for him to act on this and yet to this day, Soros remains untouched and his evil empire is feverishly working to destroy us from within.
The damage to our safety and liberty as individuals and as a society via the installation of pro-crime DAs and Secretaries of State to help grease the wheels of election fraud is incalculable. What we are witnessing in Minneapolis and elsewhere is in no small part fueled by Soros blood money.
Psaki-psircling back to that excellent piece highlighting the words of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, I now ask, did Alex Pretti and Renee Good get what they “deserved?” That’s debatable, but one thing is for sure, America, the safety, security civil rights of the citizenry, life liberty and the pursuit of happiness and the rule of law got what it desperately needed when those two met their fate. Sad on many levels that it had to come to that, But that said, it’s only a start. Those who set them and all the others like them up to be cannon fodder in service to the seizure of absolute power and the dissolution of our nation and society must be destroyed, peacefully and via the processes and rule of law that they themselves have set a match to if at all possible. But the anti-American Leftist political movement and the Democrat Party itself must be eradicated if America is to last past its 250th year if it even reaches that milestone six months from now.
Lurker extraordinaire Victor Davis Hanson is not the first to invoke what happened 165 years ago . . . It’s an insurrection if they can keep it:
.Lincoln and the preservationists felt that they easily had the moral high ground of abolition versus the continuance of slavery. Nor did they want a North America of fragmenting, warring nations in the manner of Europe. Something similar is emerging over Minnesota, the South Carolina of our age. . . Once sanctuary states, cities, and counties had established the precedent that, with impunity, they could nullify federal immigration law, then what followed was a logical and mounting descent into the current open defiance of the federal government. How odd that self-described progressives are now acting out the visions of prior kindred nullificationists and neo-Confederates from John C. Calhoun to George Wallace. The reaction of the rest of the nation, especially its conservative half, to Minnesota resembles the 1861 disconnect in the North over the insurrectionary states.
Have a great day.
And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
