Trump has one stumble this week: The "Hawk tuah" girl won't Hawk Tuah on Trump. That hurts.

I missed this last week: the Army now admits that it's forced covid vaccination caused a soldier to develop a heart condition.

Catherine Herridge, late of CBS and Fox News, and scourge of government bureaucrats who routinely lie, is releasing a new investigation on Twitter/X on vaccine injuries. The first installment focuses on Karoline Stancik's successful fight to get the Army to acknowledge that her heart condition was caused by the jab that the Army mandated that soldiers get.

After her heart condition developed she was separated from the Army, lost her pay and healthcare benefits, and due to her heart condition (which caused fainting and resulted in heart attacks) was unable to get a job.

The Army finally acknowledged it after Karoline faced tens of thousands of uncovered healthcare costs. It took over two years of fighting the bureaucracy, but Army Human Resources acknowledged Karoline's heart condition was caused by the jab and that her injuries were a result of actions taken in the line of duty.

This is huge, both for her and for other soldiers facing similar circumstances. She is now eligible for benefits that will among other things, cover her healthcare costs.

The Regime has had a pattern for the past ten years: They gaslight you with lies and lies and lies, and then, when their lies cannot hold, they suddenly about-face and say "Well of course that's the case."

It has always been known about just about every vaccine that any vaccine will cause some people some bad side-effects. There will always be some injuries.

But they lied and told us there were no injuries at all with the covid non-vaccine.

Now they'll begin saying, "Well, obviously, there are always vaccine injuries with every vaccine. Didn't you know that, Stupid?"

My friend David Azarad recommends against doing a shot every time the New York Times uses the term "far right."

Far Right's Surge in France Lays Bare Deep Divisions

Many expressed shock that Marine Le Pen's nationalist party was so close to power after the first round of a snap election.

For many, France feels like a very different place on Monday.

The results from the first round of legislative elections, held on Sunday, revealed a country deeply fractured, with a surging far right winning a record number of votes and the near collapse of President Emmanuel Macron's centrist party.

"The far right at power's door," the cover of Le Parisien, a daily newspaper, pronounced the morning after the first half of the snap election called by Mr. Macron.
"Twelve million of our fellow citizens have voted for a far right party that is clearly racist and anti-Republican," the left-leaning Libération newspaper declared in an editorial, referring to Marine Le Pen's National Rally party. "The head of the state threw France under the bus, the bus continued without slowing down, and now it's parked in front of the gates of Matignon" -- the prime minister's office.

If the National Rally takes an absolute majority in the runoff on Sunday, Mr. Macron will be forced to appoint a prime minister from its ranks, who will in turn form a cabinet.

Ah. So there's the limitation on the president's power to appoint a PM -- if NR gets a majority, he'll have to appoint a NR PM. If not, he can pick a member from his own party or the "technocrats" of the far left.

There was a sense of whiplash and disbelief at the political nosedive of Mr. Macron's party, which with its allies has had the most seats, but not an absolute majority, in the National Assembly. That centrist coalition finished a distant third in the first round of the two-round electoral race. Only two of his candidates -- and not one of his ministers who were running for a seat -- got enough votes to be re-elected without a runoff for their positions, compared with 37 members of the far-right National Rally, and 32 of the left-wing coalition of parties called the New Popular Front, which came in second.

...

On the ground, the reaction to the vote reflected the country's divisions. In the north, considered a stronghold of the far-right National Rally, there was jubilation.

And what makes them "far-right"? The NYT doesn't say. But I imagine it's the same thing which has made 60% of our own country "far right:" They want an end to, or even just a pause in, unlimited immigration by unassimilating foreigners without much attachment to the country or alignment with its traditional values.

A few weeks ago, leftwing media began to note that it isn't just resistance to uncontrolled immigration driving voters to the "far right" -- it is also resistance to impoverishing green agenda items. They're calling voters' reaction to out-of-control green regulation and green spending "greenlash."

Over the past five years, the leaders of the European Union tried to turn the 27-country bloc into a global climate front-runner.

They made big strides. They enshrined into law an ambitious target to cut planet-heating emissions by more than half by 2030. They set a 2035 deadline on the sales of new gas-guzzling cars. They expanded the price that industries must pay for emitting greenhouse gases.

But this week, as voters prepare to go to the polls, Europe's green credentials face a very different test.

There's widespread frustration over rising prices. Farmers' groups have stormed European capitals to protest proposals to limit pollution from agriculture. The right wing is ascendant. The Greens, who in 2019 won their largest share of seats in European parliamentary elections, are today polling poorly.

Look at all these far-right racists, who hate... trees or something.

Got it, anyone who disagrees with the insane Bond villain Klaus Schwab is "Far right."

Last Week, David Strom wrote about this.

Gonzo Democrat Ruy Tiexeira, who wrote The Emerging Democrat Majority as the first big pro-Replacement-Theory book, says green policies were partly behind the left's collapse in the European parliamentary elections.

The results from the recent European parliament elections were quite something. Right populists did very well indeed while the European Greens took big losses. They lost 18 of their 72 seats in the European parliament and their performance was particularly bad in the E.U.'s two largest states, Germany and France. In Germany, the core country of the European green movement, support for the Greens plunged from 20.5 percent in 2019 to 12 percent. Shockingly, among voters under 25, the German Greens actually did worse than the hard right Alternative for Germany (AfD). That contrasts with the 2019 elections, when the Greens did seven times better than the AfD among these young voters.

And in France, Green support crashed from 13.5 percent to 5.5 percent. The latter figure is barely above the required threshold for party representation in the French delegation.

The Greens' overall poor performance means they are now behind not only the traditionally largest party groupings--the center-right European People's Party (EPP), the social-democratic Socialists and Democrats group and the liberal Renew Europe group, but also both right-populist groupings--the European Conservatives and Reformists (which includes Georgia Meloni's Brothers of Italy) and the Identity and Democracy group (which includes Marine LePen's National Rally group)--and even the non-affiliated group (which includes Alternative for Germany (AfD) and Hungary's Fidesz party).

Macron again threatens civil war. He's the reasonable centrist "technocrat," remember, not an extreme leftwinger promising violence unless voters vote for his party:

JUST IN: French President Emmanuel Macron warns of potential civil war after scheduled snap election

"I think that the solutions given by the far right are out of the question, because it is categorizing people in terms of their religion or origins and that is why it leads to division and to civil war," Macron said.

"But that one as well, there is a civil war behind that because you are solely categorizing people in terms of their religious outlook or the community they belong to, which in a way is a means of justifying isolating them from the broader national community and, in this case, you would have a civil war with those who do not share those same values," Macron said in reference to the far-left France Unbowed Party. -Per Fox News

Macrons approval rating is sitting at an all time low at only 26%. The Snap election is scheduled for this Sunday in France.

Saving democracy, one riot at a time:
