The Morning Report — 11/13/25

Good morning kids. I feel like a broken record with this shutdown garbage. In any case now that the House has voted the shutdown is actually over.

The net positive of the whole episode is that we can see it exploding in the faces of the Democrats. Proof positive is the bullshit Epstein non-revelation/revelation about President Trump which has been thoroughly disavowed and debunked by the alleged victim. Not that that will stop the media whores and propagandists from trumpeting this as loudly and frequently as possible so as to distract from their paymasters' gigantic own goal with their debacle of the Schumer Shakedown Shutdown Shitshow. Most execrable, only because he's within earshot (God bless my wife who has the TV on in the next room a bit too loud) is the beady-eyed inbred slithering shitstain and credibly accused intern-murderer Joe Scarborough.

Meh, I'm just raising my BP thinking of expletives for that cheap yammering sellout/fraud of a whore (no offense to whores)

The net positive of it all is that the Democrats are now aiming their rhetorical guns on themselves (I can only imagine if a tranny or a Mangione out there got their Irish up about those Democrats who voted with the GOP to end the shutdown) — both with this meshugas and in having to deal with the fact that the bust out open insanity of the takeover by the communist youth brigades of the growing Mamdani contingent is opening a lot of eyes and turning a lot of stomachs in this nation.

To understand what’s now happening inside the Democratic Party, look no further than the historical analogy found in the Russian Revolution. There were some soft socialists, the so-called Russian whites, led by a guy named Alexander Kerensky. They were trying to hold off the Reds, and started off in an unenviable position militarily, but ended up winning because eventually there wasn’t enough systemic immunity to stop them. The liberal mainstream Democratic Party wants to capture what they think is the jet fuel of the radicals. Thus, Gavin Newsom raged against the end of the shutdown. His press office put out a statement: “Pathetic. This isn’t a deal. It’s a surrender. Don’t bend the knee!” . . .California Rep. Ro Khanna says the Democratic leadership is “out of touch.”

Khanna is a psychopathic commie wog. But when he says out of touch, does he mean with the transexual molotov cocktail throwers and Anti-semitic and anti-Christian street goons shooting up synagogues and churches or with normal, decent civilized American-Americans.

Brialliantine stick insect Gavin Newsom, at least at this point, is in my view the likely standard-bearer going into 2028. White male and hetero is usually the kiss of death as a résumé enhancer in Democrat circles, so he better hire Kamala to give him some sword-swallowing lessons.

But, Newsom is a disastrous pick in that he's yet another Californian and his record is well known and disastrous. Speaking of sword-swallowing, he'll go down harder and faster than Kamala did against Trump in 2024, Democrat cheating notwithstanding. A J.D. Vance victory should he, as I imagine, be the GOP candidate will cement in place the MAGA agenda and most crucially the most important domestic political policy agenda in decades: the sealing of our borders, and the continued removal of as many of the tens of millions of illegal aliens already draining and straining our economy and society. For the Democrat Party to continue to have sway over the American political landscape if not survive into the next generation (please God make them go the way of the Dodo) , to whatever degree of anti-American and anti-Westernism it degenerates to, from wherever it stands now, it must win the midterms and then the next election. From there it will no doubt use every instrumentality of government and the courts and its street goon terror brigades to erase the successes of President Trump and then take no chances by using whatever means necessary to seize absolute power as has been its goal for most 200 years. This is it, all the marbles baby.

As you can see from a few of the links, beyond his lack of communist fervor (though a criminal tyrannical despot for sure whatever the party label) and DEI credentials, there are a number of scandals and of course a record of disaster after disaster in California that make him, as I said earlier, toxic to the Democrat base as much as it does to us normal folks in the rest of the nation.

Switching gears completely, I cannot understand why President Trump invited the jihadist Leader of Syria to the White House. Well, Yes I actually do get it and it's not a wise move. He thinks he can rack up a win vis a vis Mideast peace by somehow getting this savage on board with the alleged Gaza peace plan. As if that ever has a real shot at happening given the nature of Islam, as I and others have discussed extensively here and on the podcast as well as elsewhere.

Trump’s invitation to Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa to the White House is a windfall for the former Al-Qaeda leader and a victory for the global jihad. Al-Sharaa has now walked away with a deal that likely surprises even him. He has been escorted into the Western fold with recognition as a legitimate dignitary, no longer sanctioned, and has even signed on to the global coalition to defeat ISIS. It is critical to review the background of al-Sharaa (known, in his days as a jihad leader, as Abu Mohammed al-Jolani) to appreciate the significance of his meeting with Trump — at the White House, no less. Al-Sharaa led the jihad group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTM), which was responsible for former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s fall. The process “essentially began in July 2011, when Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi—then the leader of the Islamic State in Iraq (ISI), previously known as al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI)—sent Abu Mohammed al-Jolani to spearhead his group’s entry into Syria.” Al-Jolani would later become the head of HTS, change his name to Ahmed al-Sharaa, and put on a suit to appeal to naive Westerners. He has done extraordinarily well, given how seasoned he is not only at violent jihad, but at stealth jihad as well.

The President is being ill-advised to say the least.

To cap off today's Report, some good essays on immigration, most notably from our friend and Ace cruelty maven Prof. Victor Davis Hanson lamenting what immigration is supposed to be, or was supposed to be.

Yes we need mass deportations of as many if not all illegal aliens and for sure a moratorium on all immigration for at least a generation if not longer and with it, some sort of mass assimilation program for those who are here to inculcate Americanism and dismantle multiculturalism forever. And sadly that apples not only to immigrants legal and otherwise but to native born citizens who now have to be deprogrammed due to years of brainwashing in American academia.

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.

• In short, Barrett has the proper conception of the judicial role. Boldly expressing these sentiments (while also “walking the walk") so early in one’s career on the Court is akin to lashing oneself to the mast to resist the Sirens’ songs that have tempted other jurists to succumb to Beltway flattery—sometimes referred to the as “Greenhouse Effect.” At the age of 53, and with five terms under her belt, Barrett could easily serve on the Court for another 20–30 years. (Fittingly, the literary-minded Barrett uses the same reference to Odysseus and the Sirens to convey the role of a written Constitution to restrain the temptations of pure democracy.)
