You’ve no doubt noticed the incoherence of The Radical Left since President Trump came back into office. A few weeks back I noted how Democrats in office and in the press (but I repeat myself) only offered a half hearted defense of their USAID graft. Today we’ll look at three stories that aren’t big enough for their own post but warrant more than my one or two line responses that usually accompany my weekly link roundups.
Eight Books You Are Forbidden from Reading – We start with The Economist, a once excellent British new magazine that’s deteriorated to little more than CNN with a British accent. As soon as I saw the headline I knew they’d repeat the same dumb talking points that I heard Joy Reid try a few weeks ago. They listed several books that were banned internationally for various reasons, and in the middle they sandwich in some of the gay p0rn that we Normals are trying to keep out of our kids’ schools. And for good measure they throw in The Bible at the end to show how evenhanded they are. Sorry, but putting gay p0rn in with books that are being suppressed by actual tyrannical regimes doesn’t make your gay p0rn legit. It just makes you look like a nimrod who we know to not take seriously.
Another case is MSN trying to suggest buyer’s remorse by Trump voters. The short article opens by by pointing out how narrow Trump’s 1.5% Popular Vote margin was, while neglecting to mention his 509-18 Electoral College landslide. They then cite as evidence three people who voted for Trump, one of which is happy and two are horrified. I don’t find this interesting enough to dig, but I’d be interested to see the backgrounds of the interviewees, but I have a feeling they’re not solid Conservatives. Every Normal I’ve interacted with since Inauguration Day has been seeing every day as Christmas Morning. But by all means, Dinosaur Media, keep trying to Make Fetch Happen.
And finally, the reliably crazy known as The Nation offers their desperation pass – Trump’s Firing Frenzy Is Hitting the GOP Where It Hurts. Don’t waste your time with it – I read so you don’t have to. The predictable argument is that they show all of the valuable people in valuable agencies whose expertise has been cast aside. Don’t get me started on malicious compliance. But I will give you the article’s closing argument:
This will ultimately hurt hundreds of thousands of people—and many of them are Trump voters. It turns out that military veterans are disproportionately represented among the DOGE cuts, because they disproportionately work in federal jobs. Two-thirds of veterans voted for Trump in 2024.
Yep, those veterans are most likely working somewhere in the Dept of Defense – we’ve actually reached the point where The Radical Left is sticking up for the military industrial complex. We live in interesting times, and if it forces the radicals to wander in the wilderness I’m OK with that.

They don’t have time to operate the front gates or unlock the bathrooms, but they’ve got plenty of time to climb to the top of the hill and secure an upside down flag there, thereby making a political statement on government time.
I don’t think you’re making the case you think… https://t.co/sPSwKIqxHl— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) February 23, 2025
Brother Bob is no longer on Facebook (although you can see his archives there), and is back on Twitter again, but is ramping up on Minds and Gab, and has his biggest presence on MeWe.

Yup they are broken along with the Democrat party, we gone from what fresh hell is this to hey check this out.
BTW in order to get on the Joint Chiefs of staff you must have a nick name, None will be Stormin’ Norman, some like Mad-dog Mattis didnt live up to expectations now nominated Dan Razin’ Caine, maybe dropping the g and adding punctuation is the sweet spot.
We need not worry of our guys in leather dog masks seeking to assist in disposal o Nuclear Waste in used luggage.
We can look forward to the assignment of Flynn it could just be the final straw on the Democrat Camels back.

“Storming” was a liberal liar. I was so mad at work I almost (came close) embarrassed myself with rage when he lied, “we kicked the ass ….”!
No liberal liar Norm ; We did not “kick ass”!
“! When we kicked Germany’s ass we removed all Admirals and Generals. Killed 10! Did same thing with Japs!
Not one general or admiral did we remove; killed not one!
AMERICA CONDITIONALLY SURRENDERED! Our condition was Iraq’s army would not fly in
“no fly zones”. A condition most knew – at least I did – was bogus; from the start. Iraq did in fact fly in them!
Again for emphasis
STROMIN IS/WAS A LEFTIST LIAR! We executed no generals! No admirals!
proof positive of Norm’s lies invasion of 2003!
Sounds like you lived the horror. Welcome home and thanks for what YOU thought was right. Sad our gov. uses us like fodder. Semper Fi brother.

How’d you know I wore E,G +A?
Doggies have grunts.
nam was hell; God protected me. Got 3 scars (men blading me never saw sunrise again!). But 50% – HALF – guys got orders at Pendleton with me were not walking when I got done! 1 out of 2. Jarhead half life is short! Half the flag raisers were soon dead!
But you’re right; and I Stand with Penny!
Thanks for reading all that, so I don’t have to.
Way back when Obama performed his putsch and fired almost all the military officers who might have stood against his pre-woke agenda, our traditional veterans were being shut out of federal gov’t jobs.
But Obama stuffed all departments with unemployable people who took the money while not even being able to do the job.
Biden was worse.
Any talk from the Left about who is getting hurt in DOGE’s cutbacks is just talk.
They throw anything they can think of at the wall in hopes some sticks, but we want these cuts.
Every single person I’ve seen lose their job has been a Lefty.
Meant to add a photo of the book burning that took place in Nazi Germany:
Seems you’re implying BHO is/was NAZI?!?1!!!!&
The Nazis like the Commies are Socialists by 100%
Right now, all the Democrats (which includes the Ministry of Propaganda) know to do is keep throwing their stupid premises against the wall and wait for something to stick. Thus far, at least as far as anyone with a brain is concern, noting is sticking.
This “buyer’s remorse” angle is perhaps the most desperate and ridiculous. First, why would I care if someone else regretted their vote? I voted for MY reasons, not theirs and they didn’t vote for MY reasons. Second, and most importantly, it’s nothing but bullshit. More fever dreams of the left.
I saw one weak attempt where a MAGA supporter (that is confirmed because he is wearing The Cap) to name one thing Trump has done. He is at a loss. Really? Does anyone anywhere believe any Trump supporter wouldn’t immediately blurt out, “THE BORDER!”, for that was an instantaneous and 180 degree reversal of open border stupidity. It is also the most overt.
Are we to believe Trump supporters such as this SAG member only watch CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS or NBC and are so devoid of real information that they haven’t noticed a single accomplishment? There have been HUNDREDS already, and more in the works.
I’ve never seen a supposedly organized group in greater disarray. They are totally lost, scrambling for relevance and attention.

Good point.
And dems are searching for a “spokesperson.”
So far no one is stepping up.
But various dems are so funny in their criticisms.
Like Prapal who used the, “who will pick our cotton?” meme for why the border should remain open.
Or, Mikey Moore who claimed an illegal would come up with the cure for cancer or the means to stop an asteroid.
Or, this federal employee who felt that having to answer to her boss in an email was akin to living in North Korea.
Not only is she an entitled little b!+c#, but what kind of drugs made her that speedy?
But they will NOT reevaluate their ideology, agenda and polices and adapt to the reality that the vast majority of public does not want their fascist socialism. Therefore, they will continue to try and recycle their failed bullshit over and over and over.
