Maybe things will be just fine.

Maybe the invasion will naturally reverse itself.

Maybe the attacks will cease.

Maybe Macron will get tough on terror and immigration.

Maybe the EU can be reformed.

Maybe once a Rothschild servant isn’t always.

Maybe it takes another five years.

Maybe it takes another 200 or 2,000 or 20,000 dead.

Anyway,

Félicitations à Emmanuel Macron, nouveau président de la France.

Congratulations to Emmanuel Macron, France’s new President.

European election coverage, HERE.

Carlos Slim’s Blog’s (pretty good) analysis with electoral maps, HERE.

It is possible, if very unlikely, that Macron will thwart the invasion; he could adopt Le Pen’s policies there. That would be the best move imaginable. If not, it’s not the end of the world – more of a beginning.

I assume ISIS will get back to work this week or this month. Tonight they breath an understandable sigh of relief. Five more years of attacks should be all that’s needed to swing the majority around. And the National Front may fare very well in the French “mid-terms”. The Front did better than any pundit could have imagined. In five years, Marine or perhaps Marion Maréchal-Le Pen (major hottie alert) may storm in like Joan of Arc as time runs down.

This election itself was amazing for several reasons. First and foremost – the major parties were booted. Imagine an American presidential election with no Democrat and no Republican on the ticket. (Keep that up for the next four years…). Second, the NF happened and it’s real. There is hope yet for the nation of France.

There’s always hope. Even if things continue to slide, as they probably will, eventually the people will wake up. If a popular political solution isn’t available, another kind will be. On that chance, we of the Second Amendment might want to start stocking away surplus rifles for the French. They may need them.

Right now it’s: Macron does the right thing now and damned fast; National Front in five years, or; Tours 2.0 in ten.

Time will tell.

Macron Email/Banking Dump on Election Eve Eve

This is all very interesting. 36 hours before the polls open a huge leak of information has surfaced about Emmanual Macron. The “front-runner” in France has been dogged about tax evasion. He’s one of the progressives that wants 70-90% taxes on the rich – except for him. Seems his money is in the Cayman Islands.

A bankster, a agent of the actual Rothschilds keeping money in the Caribbean. Sounds like a globalist. And lying about it. Sounds like a politician. Given his connections, he’s at the master level and shooting for the appropriate high office.

It gets better. A hack has revealed a 9 Gig trove of communications and other information from the Macron campaign.

Whether there is enough time to comb through the material before Sunday remains to be seen. You can view the INFO HERE.

This is a chance for the French to light up the European elites. The choice is between:

They should run it up for a vote today around 1 PM.

The U.S. House of Representatives was set on Thursday for a cliffhanger vote to repeal Obamacare, as Republican leaders worked to deliver President Donald Trump a win for one of his top legislative priorities.

House Republican leaders have expressed confidence the bill would pass and several party moderates who previously objected to it got behind it on Wednesday, giving the effort new momentum.

Still, the vote was expected to be close. Even if the measure passes the House, it faces daunting odds in the Senate where Republicans hold a narrower majority.

Republicans plan their – what, 80th?? – whack at repealing or replacing the ACA, with a House vote set for tomorrow.

The U.S. House of Representatives will vote Thursday on a controversial Republican bill that would repeal and replace key parts of Obamacare, the GOP’s majority leader said Wednesday night.

“We’re going tomorrow, yes we are,” said Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.

Asked he if had the votes to win passage of the bill, McCarthy told NBC News, “Yes we do.”

“We will pass this bill,” McCarthy said. “I feel great about the [vote] count.”

House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., said several days ago that he would not hold the vote without having those winning votes in hand.

No idea if this is the same plan floated a few months ago and aborted at the last second. Honestly I’m beginning to forget what the law is all about and who these “Republicans” are… We’ll see…

Of course, Speaker Ryan could pull the vote tonight depending on what his magic eight ball says.

That was a Pretty Good Kick, by Congressional Standards

Recently I’ve noted the Kongressional Kicking of the Kan along with the perpetual betrayal of conservative voters by the GOP.

The latest kick puts reality and the federal budget off until September.

President Donald Trump said he’ll sign a bipartisan $1.1 trillion spending bill that largely tracks Democratic priorities and rejects most of his wish list, including funds for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.

“We’re very happy with it,” the president said Monday in an interview with Bloomberg News. The plan would allocate some new funding for border security, though the funds couldn’t be used to build his promised wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. The president said he will sign the bill if it remains “as we discussed.”

The compromise measure, announced early Monday morning, would keep the government open through the end of September. Under House procedures, a vote could be held as early as Wednesday. The plan drew howls of protest from conservatives.

Howl at the moon if it makes you feel better. But this is the way it is. The Republicans are the Atlanta Falcons of politics. The budget blueprint is blown to smithereens. The tax reforms may happen but they won’t look anything like what was announced. No wall. No spending cuts. No priorities met. War in Syria. War brewing with North Korea, Russia, and half the rest of the world. Healthcare reform may make a comeback – or it may not. ISIS is planning the next domestic attack on the West. Rest assured the debt ceiling will be raised in timely fashion. And then raised again. And again. Over and over, bloated half-measure “budgets” will sail through in order to avoid the dreaded “shutdown”.

More of the same. More of the same. More of the same. Not that it will make any difference but I will probably remind you of all this again just before the next election, the next election when you keep the cycle going.

Howl.

Kongress Kicks the Kan

Again. Because shutdown.

The US Congress has passed a stop-gap spending bill to keep the government running an extra week.

It will now go to the White House for the president’s signature, and will buy Congress time to reach a deal to fund the government until September.

It came just hours before a funding deadline expired, threatening a second government shutdown in four years.

Republicans were forced to make several concessions, the latest on funding for so-called Obamacare.

A government shutdown would close national parks and monuments, lay off federal employees and delay tax refund payments.

The last shutdown, in 2013, lasted for 17 days.

There was a time, long, long ago, when Congress used to appropriate money for an entire year at a time. Now it’s a chunk here, a chunk there, one week, three weeks, four months, your dollar. The word “incompetent” comes to mind.

The real reason the pols fear a shutdown is that, should one happen and go on too long, the people might realize just how little they needed or missed the government. They can’t have that. And they can’t act responsible. So they kick the can.

The only downside I see to a temporary shutdown is the closing of the Parks. And those, I can tell you from experience, are still accessible. No force field goes up around them. They’re just much, much quieter. Kind of nice.

It would be nice if Trump would veto this one-week measure. He could use it as a “teaching moment” for the idiots on the Hill, maybe for others. Go ahead and shut her down. That won’t happen though.

The can shall be kicked. Again. And then, again later. And again. A day may come when it will be harder to kick or the kicking won’t help. Not that the pols care. Or that most of you notice.

A better approach might be for Congress to leave the can alone and kick the bucket.

Dr. Paul isn’t exactly Pamela Anderson but Assange seemed happy with the meeting.

Having blasted the Trump administration for their hyprocritical flip-flop from “loving WikiLeaks” to “arrest Assange,” Ron Paul made his feelings very clear on what this signals: “If we allow this president to declare war on those who tell the truth, we have only ourselves to blame.” Today he sits down with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange for a live interview…

“The CIA has been deeply humiliated as a result of our ongoing publications so this is a preemptive move by the CIA to try and discredit our publications and create a new category for Wikileaks and other national security reporters to strip them of First Amendment protections,”

There is a Case Out There…

Bob Owens at Bearing Arms is excited about a case in federal court in Kansas, U.S. v. Cox, No. 6:15-cr-10150-JTM-01, 02 (D. Kan. 2016), that sort of threatens the imperial lock on firearms. Bob thinks this case could (possibly) undue all federal gun control laws.

The federal trial of a Kansas man for manufacturing and selling firearms and silencers without a federal license could very well turn out to be the pivotal case that not only challenges the constitutionality of the National Firearms Act of 1934, but also every federal firearms law ever passed in a battle that will determine whether it is the states or the federal government that has the constitutional right to pass gun laws.

Put bluntly, this could be huge.

Or it could not be huge. In fact, I am confident it will fail entirely. Cox’s Motion to Dismiss, stating all his Constitutional overreach claims, has been denied. In fact, Cox and his co-defendant have already been convicted. Their hope now, what little there is, rests either in the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals or the Supreme Court. In order words, they have no chance.

gun_laws

NRA-ILA.

This case would be important for several reasons if we still had a Constitutional Republic. We don’t. Every single federal gun control is undoubtedly unconstitutional. But the Constitution and the rule of law are now things of the ancient past.

The government simply does as it pleases, lawful or otherwise, and the people accept it  – or go to prison. Rights are now illusory unless they are non-rights asserted by non-citizens or terrorist invaders or banking corporations.

I may or may not look further into this matter. For now, just abide by the edicts of Washington or suffer as Cox does. Your state is no protection at all against Mordor.

Happy Thursday. I’m semi-lie today from Five Points Cigars in Athens. Nice place.

Conservatives: You’re Being Played, Again, As Always

Among other social designs, “liberals” and many Democrats want to kill off future native-born Americans while simultaneously importing incompatible “replacement” citizens. They call it “choice” and “diversity”. “Conservatives” and the sad lot of the GOP say … say … they oppose these things.

At campaign rallies they claim they will halt the flow of illegals and terrorists into the country. They say they will stop wasting tax dollars on Rehashed Nazi Eugenics Inc. Planned Parenthood. Then they sweep to power and something funny, something fishy happens.

Now, Congress faces an April 28 deadline to pass a new government funding bill.

There is currently no talk that it will include language to prohibit funding of Planned Parenthood.

But there is talk that it will not include the language that President Trump has requested to provide $1.4 billion to begin his project to build “a great, great wall on our southern border.”

The Republican House can pass and send to the Republican Senate a bill that funds the border wall but not Planned Parenthood. Or they can pass one that funds Planned Parenthood but not the border wall.

The former course of action would fulfill the campaign promises that got their president elected. The latter would appease congressional Democrats and the liberal press.

So, which will it be?

Is there any doubt, at all, about that?

If you still believe anything the Republicans say, do realize that your team isn’t yours at all. They’re just one squad of the uniparty team, in business for themselves and their owners. None of them care anything about you.

That’s why they spy on you. (They’re recording you reading this right now). That’s why they have destroyed your currency. That’s why they want freaks trolling around your daughters in the restroom. That’s why they have to constantly have wars to fight (well, for you to fight). That’s why they move Heaven and Earth to keep invaders moving into America, while keeping you from leaving (or returning).

This is what the allegiance and the voting have gotten you. They lie. You fall for it. Always. Odds are this will continue.
