We won't be doing this everyday, but had a bunch of links I was hoping to comment on. Problem is, there are only 24 hours in a day.

Big Spender Donald Trump has literally given his supporters the middle-finger, while at the same time supporting Never-Trump Neocons. Yet, Trump Devotion Syndrome continues to plague our culture.

A Tale of Two Forms of TDS

In recent days, he’s displayed quite erratic behavior—much more than before. On Easter Sunday, on Truth Social, he threatened Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz with some expletives and closed by praising Allah. It was strange, but OK. Two days later, on April 7, he uttered more threats toward Iran: “a whole civilization will die tonight.

Then, on Easter Sunday for the Orthodox Church, he posted an AI generated image depicting himself in the role of a healer: laying hands on the sick, radiating a divine-like power, with a disturbing, demonic figure lurking in the background. This, I believe, extends beyond poor judgment. It was a calculated and deliberate post. It places him into a role reserved for Christ alone, healing a man that, to many, resembles Jeffrey Epstein. This is blasphemous.

So it is becoming increasingly clear that Trump is not standing between the people and the elites at the center of the control system. For all intents and purposes, he has joined them or has made it clear where he always stood. He has even outpaced them. He now turns on the ones who were instrumental for his two elections. He attacks anyone who challenges him and supports those who once opposed him. The response to this major shift has revealed more confusion than clarity.

Trump Devotion Syndrome manifests itself through a kind of intellectual gymnastics, where contradictions are not confronted but reinterpreted, where they are not acknowledged but rather are framed as strategy. In any other context, this would raise serious concerns, but instead it is explained away as “5D chess,” media distortions, or the actions of rogue staffers.

Personally, I don’t get "protesting". It's like begging or throwing a tantrum. Not my thing.

If you must protest, at least make some sense. I mean, I don’t even believe you. You do want a king, just one of your own (who supports current trendy thing).

What does “No Kings” really mean?

Have faith in the bloodclot.

But that one, incredibly random and confusing sign represents a broader problem with the No Kings movement — a movement which libertarians, classical liberals, and anti-war, small-government, or anti-authoritarian conservatives could get behind if it were framed in the right way.

No one in those groups wants kings, after all. And we all recognize that Trump is extending the power of the presidency in a dangerous way.

But “No Kings?” THAT’S the term they came up with? THAT’S the tuning fork they want to ring in our loins? Not exactly “I have a dream,” or “Tea Party,” or “No taxation without representation.” And it’s most certainly not, “Hey, hey, LBJ. How many kids did you kill today?”

Language has always been a tool for the powerful, who love to play semantic games.

While progressive rightwingers like Mark Levin push for censorship, the court is playing word games.

Free Speech is About Individual Liberty, Not Viewpoint Discrimination

Supreme Court rulings are significant not only for their decision on who wins, but also for their reasoning. A victory for common sense may sometimes be pyrrhic if it benefits the party who wins the dispute but relies on reasoning that erodes individual liberty in the longer term.

In that context, while the outcome in the recent case of Chiles v. Salazar, Executive Director of the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (decided March 31, 2026) was welcomed, the emphasis it placed on “viewpoint discrimination” is unfortunate. It is one more step down the road to conceptualizing free speech as an application of the non-discrimination principle, rather than as an emanation of individual liberty.

Conceptualizing free speech as an equal right to express one’s views is a stark departure from the libertarian view of free speech as an emanation of self-ownership and property rights.

The fact that I not only get traffic here, but that my YouTube channel is growing too, provides hope.

Globalism’s Propagandists Depend on Censorship

Perhaps I’m being too optimistic, but I think fewer people are buying into the hardcore cult propaganda that Marxist-globalists rain down on the world every day.

I see a few more rolled eyes around me when someone blames a thunderstorm on “climate change.” The last few stragglers of committed COVID-hyperventilators have taken off their paper masks when out in public (and have pleasantly discovered that abnormally rapid breathing disappears once dirty rags are removed from one’s face)...

I know, I know…it’s really difficult to accept that “authority” figures really do lie to us all the time. I mean, what kind of people would shamelessly bankrupt small businesses while generating record profits for Amazon and Walmart? How luciferian must our degenerate “ruling class” be if it is willing to arrest Christians for attending church, while encouraging race hucksters to burn down cities in the name of “justice”? How psychopathic must our “leaders” be to bar people from comforting dying loved ones in hospitals or attending their funerals? Unfortunately for us, Marxist-globalists represent the apex class of shameless, luciferian, degenerate, psychopaths.

Make no mistake about it. This was just a strike in a much larger war on genuine Christianity.

The schism between the Pentagon and the Vatican

On January 9, 2026, Pope Leo XIV presented his New Year wishes to foreign ambassadors. He declared in particular: These days, the weakness of multilateralism at the international level is particularly worrying. Diplomacy that promotes dialogue and seeks consensus among all is replaced by diplomacy by force, individuals or groups of allies. War has come back into fashion and warlike fervor is spreading. The principle established after World War II, which prohibited countries from using force to violate other people's borders, has been violated [1]. We no longer seek peace as a gift and a desirable good in itself "in the pursuit of an order willed by God, which implies more perfect justice between men", [2] but we seek it by arms, as a condition for asserting our own domination. This seriously threatens the rule of law which is the foundation of all peaceful civil coexistence. " [3].

This speech greatly displeased the United States Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth. He is a Christian Zionist, member of the Communion of Evangelical Reformed Churches (CREC), the sect of Pastor Douglas Wilson. Since September 30, 2025, he has been reforming the Pentagon, dismissing officers who had been appointed in favor of woke ideology and the rules of "diversity, equity and inclusion" (DEI) [4]. Above all, he questioned the role of "the family", International Christian Leadership, within the Pentagon itself...

WHY is this foreign nation, of questionable origins, ALWAYS involved - from presidential assassinations to modern surveillance and censorship - in American politics?

The Kennedys vs. the Jews

Joseph Kennedy, Sr. became the youngest bank president in U.S. history, at just twenty five years of age. We have been told he was a scoundrel. A bootlegger. In bed with the mafia. Who cheated on his wife with actress Gloria Swanson. A man who used his fortune to buy his unqualified son the presidency. As always, we are being lied to.

[W]e see a historical pattern here, starting with family patriarch Joseph Kennedy, Sr. Privately suspicious of Jews in general, and certainly against the very creation of Israel. What would Old Joe think of the genocide in Gaza? How would President Kennedy feel about his dreams of liberated people ruling themselves everywhere, which was an updated version of the Founders’ “consent of the governed” argument, being shattered to pieces? Which is exactly the phrase he used to describe what he wanted to do to the CIA. We’ve come a long way from JFK demanding that Ben-Gurion stop nuclear development at Dimona, to sex toy peddler Rabbi Shmuley controlling his nephew’s position on Zionism. The Kennedys have been unfairly smeared by a “free press” that is disproportionately run by the same kind of people Old Joe railed against behind the scenes. It’s a war that the Kennedys lost, as their Body Count gruesomely shows. But it was also a huge defeat for the American people.

Then again, they provide a nice safehaven for the global elite.
