“Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
–Winston Churchill.
The Japanese Magnolia in our front yard is in full bloom. The white and violet flowers are stunning. And the grass has greened up nicely. Our dogwoods need to catch up!
An American fighter jet was downed over Iran. Both pilots safely ejected, and were rescued by special military forces. WINNING!
Democrats are very unhappy about President Trump’s speech concerning hostilities with Iran. Despite the obvious metrics of success achieved to date–an unbelievable level of success, never before achieved by any military–Democrats insist that the U.S. is losing the war with Iran. Democrats insist that no strategic objectives have been accomplished. Democrats cling to the fiction that Iran posed no “imminent threat” to the United States (why must the threat be “imminent” before it is addressed? Must everything be an emergency?). Democrats are cheering for an American defeat. By contrast, the President is focused on victory, channeling Winston Churchill. Because there is no substitute for victory.
“[God] does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war.”
–Pope Leo XIV.
General George S. Patton, the United States Third Army, General Anthony McAuliffe, and the 101st Airborne would beg to differ.
The United States economy added 178,000 private sector jobs in March. But even better news is that the federal workforce shrunk by 18,000 jobs. The fewer bureaucrats, the better! WINNING!
Representative Eric Swalwell (D. Ca.) is one of the leading proponents of releasing everything Epstein. But when it comes to his own files, detailing a criminal investigation into his association with a Chinese spy and paramour, Representative Swalwell is throwing a hissy fit, threatening to sue the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Wow. What hypocrisy!
San Francisco, California Democrats are up in arms after President Trump proposed returning Alcatraz to a prison, instead of a tourist attraction. They are probably afraid of being among the first new inmates.
Torrey Pines High School [California] permitted students to leave class and demonstrate against ICE. The students’ demonstration was crude and profane. But then a student later put up posters, supporting ICE. Torrey Pines High School suspended that student, claiming is posters were “intimidating”. Oh, please!
In 2022, Massachusetts enacted a “millionaires’ tax”, pledging that the funds would be used to fund education. But now Massachusetts Democrats want to use those funds to hire attorneys to represent illegal aliens facing deportation. Because nothing is more important that protecting foreign criminals in our midst. Not our children’s education. Nothing.
“Yeah. I think marriage is legalized slavery.”
–Former Saturday Night Live cast member, Leslie Jones. She further suggested that husbands might as well “break out whips and chains”. What a bitter old maid!
Little Debbie is releasing Oatmeal Cookie Ice Cream sandwiches and Oatmeal Cookie Ice Cream bars. Oh, my gosh! I’ve got to try them!
The United Nations Security Council considered a resolution authorizing member States to act to open up the Straits of Hormuz to all commercial traffic. It was expected that Russia and China would oppose the resolution, but then there was another; France. French President Emmanuel Macron explained that the effort would be “too difficult”, “dangerous”, and “time consuming”, with no guarantee of success. My goodness! What a cheese eating, surrender monkey!
Traditionally the British monarch issues an Easter message to the faithful. Which only makes sense, since the monarch is the head of the Church of England. But this year, King Charles III did not have the time or inclination to issue any such message. But last month, King Charles III did find the time and inclination to issue an effusive message about Ramadan. Hmmmm.
Toronto, Canada’s socialist mayor loudly proclaimed that ICE would not be permitted to operate in her city. Okay.
“We already know that biology, as much as we want it to be just nice and clean and tight and perfectly in one category and another, it’s not. We know that. So, now what we’re doing is subjecting everybody, all women and all people who are identifying as women to this really invasive testing that only to me says like, ‘Oh we’re just trying to whittle it down to a certain type of woman.’ Is that what we’re doing? That’s really the whole game here. They sort of lost the battle on gay marriage and lost the battle on all these things so it’s just like, ‘We’re gonna have this whole campaign for all these years to just hate trans people,’ which is such a small percentage of the population. It’s actually on a single hand when we’re talking about sports. And just like thread the absolute tightest needle thread that you possibly could.”
–former U.S. women’s soccer player Megan Rapinoe.
Why are media outlets still covering this disgruntled harpy? She was overrated as a soccer player, and she is a lousy advocate for her favorite perversions. If she was not a homosexual, no one would ever pay attention to her.
“This is a serious thing he’s [Eldrick Woods] done, you know. The PGA Tour statement was so predictably weak, how they showed that the Tour will look after him, as they always have done. And then you’ve got Jack [Nicklaus] saying it’s tarnished the entire sport. You’ve got your opposites, but there has to be some accountability.
I feel sorry for Tiger because he’s living in 24-7 pain. I asked him that years ago, even before the LA accident (in 2021), but it’s all been self-inflicted. The bottom line is I really think that something should be done a little bit more serious than waving him off to a tropical island and saying ‘Welcome back’ in three or four months.”
–former PGA Tour professional Nick Faldo.
And then there were 2. Michigan will meet Connecticut this evening, and the winner will be the national champion basketball team.
