CALIFORNIA: WHERE COMMUNISM MEETS CLOWN WORLD 🤡
California, our most beautiful failed state, is suddenly full of libertarians.
Yes—overnight, the same trust-fund progressives who spent forty years worshiping the Federal Leviathan have become disciples of the Tenth Amendment and limited government. Their new gospel? “Get the Feds out of our lives!”
Now listen: I’m a huge fan of states’ rights. Always have been. I believe in the Constitution. I believe in the 10th Amendment. But if we’re going to do this properly—if we’re going to play the “states’ rights” game—then let’s be consistent.
You don’t get to selectively care about state sovereignty. That means:
No Federal mandates on your businesses
No lockdowns from D.C.
No FBI raids for noncompliance
And yes—no whining if Texas wants to close its abortion clinics or teach the Constitution without 87 pronouns
Let’s be honest—most of the Left has hated states’ rights since the War of Northern Aggression (wink). Suddenly they're Jeffersonian purists?
Nah. This isn’t principle. It’s panic.
Because the cold truth is this: illegal immigration is a Census cheat code and it’s also bankrupting California.
The hospitals? Bleeding red.
The schools? Flooded and failing.
The budget? Billions in the hole.
And it’s not climate change, racism, or capitalism to blame—it’s the deliberate policy of inviting in millions of people and handing them free education, healthcare, and welfare, paid for by American citizens who can’t afford to buy a house or see a doctor themselves.
These are the same people who demanded vax mandates, lockdowns, and house arrest for the unjabbed. Now they want to be libertarians?
Please.
California’s entire political model is predicated on cheating—counting illegal immigrants in the Census to inflate their Congressional representation and boost Electoral College votes. This is population fraud on a national scale.
Here’s the fix: do a snap Census. Reapportion based on citizens, not squatters. You want to harbor illegals? Fine. But you don’t get extra seats in Congress or extra say in who becomes President.
You don’t get to demand national mandates one day and whine about federalism the next.
Like most of the Left, it’s just pick-and-choose. Rules for thee, not for me—the only true commandment of progressivism.
And while we’re at it, maybe elect some leaders who aren’t waving Mexican flags in the streets while burning down police cars. Bring back law, borders, and some basic damn dignity.
Because the circus tent is [literally] burning—and the clowns are running the town.
🛑 THE CROWN, THE COUP, AND THE COMMIES
Sincerely and unironically, they told us “No Kings.”
That was the theme of Saturday’s astroturfed protest against President Trump.
Cute.
But anyone with eyes saw the truth: when your enemies call you a King, you’ve already won the frame. Even the protest signs glow with unintended reverence. The optics of "NO KINGS" plastered across every headline? All it does is burnish Trump’s image. Regal. Resolute. Inevitable.
Scott Adams nailed it—this is persuasion Jiu-Jitsu.
Now the only question is whether the Soros-funded protest class and their TikTok-trained foot soldiers will turn this one “mostly peaceful.” We all remember how “mostly peaceful” worked out in L.A.—flaming cars, shattered glass, and people pulling TVs out of burning buildings.
Let’s not forget: political violence is not a bug of the modern Left—it is a feature.
The moment the Left lost grip in 2016, they activated every extralegal weapon in their arsenal.
The Russia hoax.
Impeachment theater.
Arson, riots, and assassination.
And now, déjà vu. As Trump secures reelection and reclaims the national narrative, the feral Left has once again dropped the mask. Just in the last few months, we've seen coordinated violence erupt across the country:
Tesla dealerships torched and vandalized by activists who decided Elon’s wrongthink made electric cars “fascist.”
The Pennsylvania Governor’s mansion firebombed, with mainstream outlets barely whispering the news.
A pro-Israel event in Boulder, Colorado was firebombed by a Pro-Palestinian lunatic.
A couple was murdered outside a D.C. museum attending a charity event
And a CEO of an insurance company was executed in broad daylight to thunderous applause not just from the Left but from their sycophants in the press.
This isn’t activism. It’s terrorism.
And as I've written before—the more the case becomes clear and the public sees the Democrats and their commie foot soldiers for the demented and dangerous loons they are, the more urgent it becomes to cut off the funding. That’s the only way to kill the Hydra.
Because the truth is: without Hollywood, academia, the corporate press, and Zuckerbucks-style election interference, they can’t win. They’ve always been a small, shrieking minority propped up by institutional megaphones and ballot shenanigans.
And when those props vanish? They don’t debate. They don’t organize.
They burn.
What we’re watching is the birth of a homegrown Red Army Faction.
The Red Army Faction—also known as the Baader-Meinhof Group—was a far-left terrorist organization in West Germany. From 1970 to 1998, they waged war on the state:
Bombings, kidnappings, assassinations, shootouts. They targeted politicians, judges, CEOs, and U.S. military personnel—anyone they considered part of the "fascist system."
It was ideology fused with violence. An unholy alliance of utopian delusion and murderous rage.
Sound familiar?
Today’s American Left, unmoored from reality and drowning in cultural irrelevance, is barreling down the same path. The tactics are evolving, the targets expanding, and the media… complicit.
The difference? The RAF had to operate in the shadows.
The modern version does it in broad daylight, and your tax dollars are still funding half their platforms.
If Trump’s administration truly wants to defeat this Hydra, it must starve the beast.
Cut off the nonprofit laundromats. Strip federal dollars from ideological universities. Dismantle the NGO–Deep State pipeline. And above all—prosecute political terrorism like the national security threat it is.
Because this isn’t just the tantrum of a dying ideology—it’s the violent birth of something darker.
And we either crush it now, or we relive the 1970s—this time with digital foot soldiers and institutional cover.
🔥 ISRAEL, IRAN & THE WAR THAT NEEDED TO HAPPEN
Speaking of finely honed militaries—the United States and Israel remain the two most effective fighting forces the world has ever known. And right now, Israel is doing what must be done—what no one else had the spine to do.
For over 50 years, Iran has been the world’s chief exporter of terrorism. The Ayatollah regime is a death cult with oil money, chanting “Death to America” while financing proxies from Gaza to Yemen. Their goal isn’t ambiguous: global jihad, backed by nuclear weapons.
This war didn’t start last week. It started decades ago.
And let’s be clear: Iran had every chance. Under Trump’s maximum pressure campaign—crippling sanctions, diplomatic isolation—they were weeks away from capitulating. But then came Biden and Obama 2.0, who cupped the Ayatollah’s balls, sent the regime billions and lifted sanctions like candy wrappers.
You think we’d even be having this conversation if that money hadn't flowed straight back into weapons labs and terror cells?
Trump gave them 60 days: Rejoin the non-proliferation treaty. Let the inspectors in. Denuclearize.
They said no.
Day 61: FAFO time. Israel struck.
In a move as daring as it was surgical, Israel launched air strikes and containerized drone swarms—hidden in plain sight, smuggled deep into Iranian territory—which activated simultaneously and crippled Iran’s nuclear program.
This is what happens when a serious nation defends itself.
Now, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I’m not a war hawk. After watching 25 years of American blood and treasure vanish into the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan—with trillions spent and entire regions left worse off—I’m extremely cautious about interventionism.
America paid dearly, not just in body bags, but in broken minds and hollowed trust.
So let’s be clear: this isn’t some neocon nation-building fantasy.
This isn’t overseas for Israel—this is their backyard.
And the truth is, if you don’t draw the line there, the chaos comes here. If you don’t stop the civilization-murdering savages at the gate, they kick it down and walk through your front door.
This is geopolitics as Castle Doctrine.
It’s Florida Stand Your Ground, but applied to sovereign nations.
When someone vows—again and again—to wipe you off the map in a fiery holocaust, and then spends decades building the means to do it, you don’t wait for the mushroom cloud over Tel Aviv before deciding it’s time to act.
That’s not paranoia. That’s what they’ve promised. Over and over. In speeches, chants, propaganda, and direct action. They want to bring the fire to our shores—and they’ve tried.
Cue the “anti-war” screeching from the anti-Semitic Right.
You know the types:
“Churchill was a war criminal.”
“Israel did 9/11.”
“America shouldn’t have bombed Hiroshima.”
These people wouldn’t know history if it hit them in the face with a Qur'an.
They claim they’re just “anti-interventionist.” But when millions are being slaughtered in Sudan, Yemen, Syria, they’re silent. It’s only when Jews defend themselves that their morality sensors start blinking red.
As Jordan Schachtel rightly mocked the, “I’m not dying for Israel” closet Nazi’s on Twitter:
This isn’t America’s war. And that’s the point.
Israel is the tip of the spear—the first and last line of defense for Western civilization in the Middle East. Americans should be incredibly cautious about conflict overseas after the their betrayal by civilian and military leadership over the last 2 decades, but let’s not sabotage those who will.
Let’s be honest: most of the Arab world wants Iran’s regime to burn too. They just can’t say it out loud.
And deep down, the entire civilized world—minus China, Russia, and their terrorist pets—would sleep better knowing the Iranian regime and the mythical “Palestine cause” were consigned to the ash heap of history.
If we’re lucky, this is a Lady Macbeth war: “twere it done, ’twere best it were done quickly.”
Take out the nukes. Cripple the regime. Light the tinder for internal revolution.
And if you’re still confused?
Let me explain it in laymen’s terms.
How is it not AMERICA FIRST to applaud the elimination of nuclear weapons from people who chant “Death to America” and tried to assassinate President Trump?
Exactly.
📍THE CCP'S DRONE PLAYBOOK IS ALREADY IN OUR BACKYARD
Here’s where things get real—because what just happened in Iran could happen here, and fast.
Israel took out Iranian targets using drones hidden in shipping containers, embedded deep inside Iran’s borders. Covert, sophisticated, and activated remotely.
Now ask yourself:
What if China did that?
Spoiler: They already laid the groundwork.
Look at this map.
Every red dot? Chinese-owned farmland in America.
And every one of those dots is strategically located near U.S. military bases.
This is not agriculture. It’s asymmetric warfare prep.
The CCP is building launch pads for Pearl Harbor 2.0, disguised as soy farms. And we’re letting them.
Drones. Cyberattacks. Sabotage. All from inside the perimeter.
Israel just showed the world what this technology can do. The question is: will we learn the lesson before it’s used against us?
We need a national ban on CCP-owned land near any military infrastructure. Period. Confiscate it. Reclaim it. Fence it off. I don’t care how—we don’t let the enemy build forward operating bases in our own backyard.
This isn’t foreign policy anymore. It’s homeland security.
Padilla Gets Shown the Door
This week, Senator Alex Padilla learned the hard way that you don’t charge toward Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem like a rogue bull in a china shop and expect a pat on the back.
The video evidence is crystal clear, and it’s a masterclass in why nobody—nobody—gets to play fast and loose with security, not even a senator with a chip on his shoulder. Padilla’s antics in Los Angeles weren’t just a breach of decorum; they were a reckless stunt that demanded the swift, decisive tackle he got. And yes, if you want to play by the same standards we encountered over the last 4 years - he should face charges, just like the January 6 defendants who felt the full weight of the law for far less.
Let’s break it down, frame by fiery frame. Padilla, sans his Senate security pin and without a whisper of prior identification, slunk to the front of the room, a mere 12-15 feet from Noem, who was six minutes into her remarks.
Then, like a heckler at a comedy club, he started shouting over her, disrupting a federal official in the line of duty. Secret Service agents, not knowing if this was a senator or a street agitator, moved in. Padilla resisted, turning to face Noem, stepping into security’s path, and trying to bulldoze back toward her.
It took seven seconds—seven!—for him to finally sputter, “I’m Senator Alex Padilla,” as if that’s a free pass to act like a one-man riot. Security, done with his nonsense, shoved him out the door, cuffed him, and showed him the floor.
While Democrats and the press spin fairy tales, the truth is stark: Padilla acted like a thug, not a statesman. If you’re crying over his bruised ego, save some tears for the J6 grandmothers locked up for far less. This senator’s not a martyr—he’s a menace who earned his detention. And a few knees to the ribcage while he was down would’ve been a spicy cherry on top of justice served…
Here’s
with a good summary of the event and how the Left attempts to weaponize these stunts. The good news? Almost no one is falling for it anymore.🧠 FINAL THOUGHT: WE’RE NOT BACK—WE NEVER LEFT
I’m not a fan of military parades. They reek of banana republics and second-rate tyrants.
But I’ll tell you what I am a fan of:
A military that says “We Will Kill You” again instead of one that puts lipstick on dudes and hands out hormone therapy on the taxpayer dime.
Let the world know—we’re not a circus anymore.
We’re the sovereign steel fist of the free world.
And God help anyone who tries to test us now.
What I’m Watching and Reading….
The Technological Republic: Hard Power, Soft Belief, and the Future of the West by Alexander Karp, CEO of Palantir Technologies, and Nicholas W. Zamiska, a senior executive at Palantir, is a provocative treatise critiquing Silicon Valley’s drift from ambition and national purpose. The book argues that the West’s technological edge and freedoms are at risk due to a culture of complacency, intellectual fragility, and the tech industry’s focus on trivial consumer products like photo-sharing apps and marketing algorithms.
Karp and Zamiska advocate for a renewed partnership between the software industry and government, reminiscent of the World War II-era collaboration that drove world-changing innovations. They emphasize the urgency of addressing challenges like the artificial intelligence arms race, urging tech leaders to prioritize national security and democratic values over shallow commercial pursuits. The government, in turn, must adopt Silicon Valley’s engineering mindset and streamline bureaucratic processes. The authors stress that rejecting intellectual fragility and fostering ideological confrontation are critical for technological and economic success.
The book also offers an inside look at Palantir’s operations and its pro-Western political project, blending philosophy, history, and technology. It critiques Silicon Valley’s libertarian tendencies and reluctance to engage with state institutions, warning that this detachment weakens the West against authoritarian technological advances.

That’s it for this week folks! Hope you enjoyed. If you did, share it with a friend. See ya next week! -MK
I hope I'm wrong but I'm seeing the streets on fire in most major cities and some smaller ones as the summer moves on. 1972 all over again if I'm recalling the correct year. I lived in the DC area at the time. These idiots have too much funding and are too well paid by the Soros types to stop. Happy to be wrong
