The Morning Report — 9/4/25

Good morning kids. Let's start it off with a bang, shall we.

Seven months in, Trump has curbed illegal immigration, steadied the economy, and scored foreign policy wins—while Democrats flounder without a counteragenda. . . The greatest Democrat fear? That it has so institutionalized excessive executive orders, ad hominem lawfare, lower-court usurpation, state nullification of federal law, and federal intervention in higher education, the energy industry, and the nation’s open spaces that their own legacies empowered Trump and now will boomerang upon themselves—as the public applauds the karma.

To the author of this essay, lurker extraordinaire and Ace cruelty fanboi #1 Prof. Victor Davis Hanson, I would say that the Democrat agenda to destroy and/conquer America has been effectively checked by President Trump (may it stay that way forever please GOd!) like no other President in memory if not history.

All they can do is reflexively oppose anything and everything he does, regardless of the real world consequences.

It's like Monty Python's "Argument Clinic" sketch playing out live. They'll weep, moan and mourn the fate of narco-criminal illegal aliens, indigenous criminals at long last rounded up by the National Guard and disturbed transexual freaks after one of their own gun down innocent Catholic children. And like Pavlov's dog or touching a piece of metal to the exposed frog's tendon in the petri dish, the reflexive reaction is completely predictable.

I hate to do it to you, but revolting as it is, it's just too illustrative to ignore:

Crockett said, “I mean, clearly, the White House, they are the hostile actors . . . we’re talking about him unlawfully going into various minority controlled cities and honestly, the list goes on. So we know where the hostility is coming from.”

Wait one Cotton-Picking minute!!! Minority-CONTROLLED? How exactly do minorities or anyone for that matter "CONTROL" a city or any other area in a free country where the citizenry allegedly elect their representatives in what is supposed to be a representative government where elected officials have very restricted and limited duties.

Well, smear my face with feces and call me Tawana. OR better yet, cover Crockett in Sherwin Williams taupe and call her Jasmine Cracker (Barrel)!

So, apparently, there is a black comedian out there named Druski (whose given name is Andrew Desbordes) who is turning a lot of heads these days with a video of himself not just in whiteface, but with the whole of his upper body painted white, complete with a farmer’s tan sunburn and tattoos. It’s a total hoot until you start paying attention to what is going on.

Druski clearly wanted to make people think he was a Southern redneck; the New York Post observed Wednesday that he “completed the redneck character’s look with a mullet, beard, American flag cowboy hat and a pair of overalls with no shirt revealing American flag tattoos.” When Druski posted the video, he added the caption “That Guy who is just Proud to be AMERICAN.”

Okay, so this hyper-patriotic white Southern guy, as Druski portrays him, is in the first place a total slob, walking around with his massive rolls of fat on display for the delectation of all and sundry, yelling, spitting, cursing, drinking, and telling off-color jokes. All right. It’s all in fun, right? Sure. But Druski’s redneck is a stereotype come to life, so on-the-nose that it raises the inevitable question of what the reaction might be if any other group were portrayed in a similar way. 

Finally an actual example of the black face of white supremacy. . .

With that, a bit of housekeeping, scheduling conflicts prevented the podcast from posting yesterday as promised, but we should have it for your weekend dining and dancing pleasure some time around noon Eastern tomorrow.

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.

Have a great day!
