It's the Economy, Stupid

Bill Clinton won on that observation!

Susie Wiles Packed a Room With Cabinet Secretaries and What She Told Them Should Have Democrats Terrified

Biden spent three years swearing the economy was great and voters were just too dumb to see it.

That message bombed so spectacularly that Democrats lost the White House, the Senate, and any claim to understanding how normal Americans live.

Now Trump's team just held a meeting that proves they learned exactly the right lesson – and what came out of that room five days before the State of the Union should keep Chuck Schumer up at night.

The economy is THE issue. Not immigration. Not foreign policy. Not Epstein. Not January 6. The economy.

Tonight President Trump stands before a joint session of Congress for his first official 2026 State of the Union of his second term. Trump walks in with unified Cabinet, tested economic messaging, and 25 slides of voter data behind him. Democrats are boycotting rather than answering.

That's not a resistance strategy – that's a forfeit.

Maria Corina Machado

Nobel Prize Winner Just Compared Trump To This One Moment Reagan Never Achieved

She dedicted her Peace Prize to Donald Trump

"This is historic," Machado said. "This happens once in a lifetime. This will be remembered for generations to come." Maria Corina Machado, an industrial engineer with a Masters Degree in finance, isn't a politician in the American sense – she's someone who has been hunted, jailed, and stripped of her political rights by Nicolas Maduro's regime for the crime of telling Venezuelans the truth.

She's talking about the collapse of Maduro's grip on Venezuela – a collapse she says Trump made possible.

"For the first time in history," Machado said, "we will have the Americas free of communism and dictatorship."

While the American media spent years lecturing you about Trump's foreign policy incompetence, Trump's team was methodically strangling the Maduro regime with sanctions and diplomatic isolation – and then, on January 3rd, Trump's special forces went into Caracas and physically pulled Maduro out of his bed.

Machado said it directly – once Venezuela falls to democracy, Cuba follows. Nicaragua follows.

Gavin

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Racist) basically told a group of black voters in Georgia, Vote for me. I’m stupid just like you!

While out promoting his autobiography and his likely 2028 presidential campaign, Newsom started out with the usual-usual pandering Democrats employ with black voters. Then it quickly devolved into the kind of racist condescension we’ve seen from modern-day Democrats, reaching back to when they created the Jim Crow South.

This is really something…

I’m not trying to impress you. I’m just trying to impress upon you I’m like you. I’m no better than you. I’m a 960 SAT guy. And I’m not trying to offend anyone; trying to act all there if you got 940. But literally a 960 SAT guy. You’ve never seen me read a speech because I cannot read a speech. Maybe I’m in the wrong business to be in.

The highest possible SAT score is 1600, and here Newsom is slowing his speech, talking in bite-sized pieces, and saying to black voters, I’m just like you. I had a lousy SAT score, and I have trouble reading.

That’s what he honestly thinks of black people. That’s what he sees when he sees black people… He sees a dumb and uneducated underclass.

Unbelievable… Actually, it’s not if you know anything about the modern Democrat Party.

Man arrested for House fire and burning dog

Lake Worth Beach man accused of starting house fire with gasoline, burning roommate’s dog

This is the garbage living in our city

A roommate stomped out flames twice Sunday after deputies say a man doused their home in gasoline, reignited the fire, and burned a dog’s stomach.

Deputies with the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office responded to a home at 9:30 p.m. on Sunday for reports of a man attempting to light a fire.

Upon arrival, deputies say they spoke with a man who said his roommate, late identified as 31-year-old Schnider Annoual, had poured gasoline on the bottom floor of the house and set it on fire.

Law enforcement then made contact with Annoual at the front door, where an "overbearing odor" of gasoline was emitting from the home and Annoual's body.

California Unemployment DEBT/Fraud of $21 BILLION DOLLARS

Labor Department sends a strike team to California over a $21 billion unemployment debt and rampant fraud

The Labor Department has deployed a specialized "strike team" to California to investigate improper payments and alleged fraud riddling the state's unemployment insurance program, a system now $21 billion in debt to the federal government and hemorrhaging taxpayer money at a pace that would make even Sacramento blush.

Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer announced the move after writing a letter to California's Employment Development Department, citing increasing improper payment rates, insufficient timeliness, data accuracy and quality concerns, and serious questions about participants' eligibility and the use of taxpayer funds.

The strike team will include Labor Department specialists drawn from national and regional offices. Chavez-DeRemer did not mince words:

"Financial issues and potential fraud in California's unemployment insurance program will be fully examined. The previous administration turned a blind eye toward failing Labor programs. This ends now."

In media and legal battles, Luthmann applies Patton’s battlefield clarity to the information war at home.

Patton had no patience for the rulebook gymnastics of people like Hanks, Castorina, Love, Noshirvan, Hales, the McMahons, Christopher Ambrose, and their orbiters.

This applies to Islamists pushing Sharia, entrenched collectivists, ideological wokesters, Libtards, and “Shit Leftists” (as Argentine President Javier Milei puts it).

They preach procedure while practicing ambush. They cry “norms” while exploiting every loophole. They weaponize courts, social media mobs, bureaucrats, and friendly prosecutors, then demand civility from the targets.

That is not politics. That is asymmetric warfare in a suit and tie. Never handicap yourself against opponents who don’t recognize limits.

The Coca-Cola DEI Lawsuit That Has Every Corporate HR Department Nervous

Trump’s EEOC Just Sued Coca-Cola After They Sent 250 Women to a Casino and Left Every Man Behind

Bud Light handed a can of beer to Dylan Mulvaney and watched $27 billion evaporate in six months.

Corporate America learned nothing.

Now Trump's federal civil rights commission just handed a Coca-Cola distributor its own reckoning – and this one comes with a federal lawsuit, a jury trial, and the full weight of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Coca-Cola Beverages Northeast – a producer and distributor serving New England and upstate New York – quietly organized a two-day networking trip to Mohegan Sun Casino and Resort in Connecticut in September 2024.

Two hundred and fifty employees were privately invited. Every single one of them was a woman. The men at the company found out they weren't invited, weren't compensated, and weren't considered.

The women who attended got their hotel, their meals, their networking opportunities with senior executives – including Jennifer Mann, President of Coca-Cola North America – and their full salary, without burning a single vacation day.

The men got nothing but the bill. (Aren't men usually stuck with the bill? 😉)

Big Tech's Billion-Dollar Loophole

Trump Just Told Peter Navarro to Make Meta Pay for Something It Quietly Shifted Onto Your Bill

Your electricity bill went up again last month.

And while you were opening that envelope, Meta – a company worth $1.6 trillion – was quietly letting you cover one cost of powering it all.

Peter Navarro just went on Fox News and said the White House is done letting that happen – and what he described is the kind of accountability Big Tech hasn't faced in decades.

Here's how the loophole works:

• When Meta or Google or Microsoft builds a massive data center – a building that consumes as much electricity as a small city – utilities have to build new power lines, new transformers, and new generating capacity to feed it.
• Under rules designed a century ago for a very different world, those infrastructure costs get spread across every ratepayer in the region.
• That means you.
• Not Meta.
• Not Google.
• You.

And the numbers aren't small.

Minnesota Fraud Tab: $18 Billion Out the Door, $203 Million Back to You

Walz and Frey Just Sent American Taxpayers a $203 Million Bill for the Mess Minnesota Created

ICE spent months cleaning up a state that allowed $18 billion in fraud to walk out the door to Somalia.

Now the men who let it happen want you to pay for their feelings.

Tim Walz and Jacob Frey – two loser Democrats under active federal criminal investigation – just demanded the federal government reimburse them for the cost of Operation Metro Surge, the largest immigration enforcement deployment in American history.

Frey put his city's tab at $203 million – $47 million in "lost wages" for people too afraid to leave home, $81 million in small business losses, and $4.7 million from hotel cancellations.

Walz went further, calling on Congress to cover costs and telling reporters the federal government "needs to pay for what they broke here." "You don't get to break things and then just leave without doing something about it," he said.

Here's the number neither man mentioned: $18 billion.

Democrats count non-citizens for House seat apportionment

They owe us 18 seats

That's right, true to form and keeping on-brand, the Democrats have been caught stealing again.

More specifically, they have robbed Republicans of 18 seats in the United States House of Representatives by counting non-citizens in the U.S. Census.

This is expressly why Joe Biden, Barack Obama (the man behind the curtain making the Corpse of Biden dance) engineered the illegal entry of 12-20 million illegal aliens in his disastrous four-year run.

Federal law currently bases House seat apportionment on total population instead of citizenship, meaning illegal aliens and other non-citizens are included in the numbers used to allocate seats and Electoral College votes.

This system has shifted dozens of House seats over time, redistributing political power toward states with larger non-citizen populations. Republican legislators have warned that counting illegals “destroys equal representation” and gives disproportionate influence to states that give them "sanctuary." But congress has done nothing to fix it.

The right to representation belongs to American citizens, not foreign nationals who have no legal right to vote.

Until Congress ends this insanity and ensures only citizens are counted for purposes of representation, the voice of every lawful American voter will remain muted by a system that rewards illegal presence and effectively cancels out citizenship. [Strictly Speaking]

It's no wonder that many blue states want the Popular Vote law that will guarantee the Presidency to the candidate who receives the most popular votes in all 50 states and the District of Columbia...California, New York and states where most illegals are, will control our country and its policies.

The Affordability Crisis

Democrats "affordability" Crisis

Mamdani ran on affordability. He told New Yorkers he would make the city work for working people.

His solution to that promise is a 9.5 percent property tax hike that will land squarely on landlords, who will pass it directly to renters, and a wealth tax scheme designed to chase out the very tax base that funds the city's services.

This is the progressive governance feedback loop in its purest form:

• Spend beyond your means.
• Blame the previous administration.
• Propose taxes that punish productivity and reward government expansion.
• Watch the tax base flee (to Florida).
• Blame the fleeing tax base for the revenue shortfall.
• Repeat.

California has run this cycle for years. Illinois knows it well. New York City, under Mamdani, appears eager to sprint through it.

Crime City of Lake Worth Beach

Lake Worth Beach, FL, experiences a mix of crime levels, with a 2026 overall B+ grade in the 33460 zip code, indicating average crime levels for the region.

While some areas like Parrot Cove have very low crime (Grade A), neighborhoods like Pineapple Beach (Grade C) and Royal Poinciana (Grade C+) see higher, above-average crime, according to DoorProfit.

Lake Worth Beach has a violent crime rate of approximately 6.8 per 1,000 residents and a total crime rate of 31.52 per 1,000 residents. While some, like this source from Nextdoor, report a lower overall rate than the national average, others note that crimes like robbery and theft are above average in specific neighborhoods, with rates such as 359.5 robberies and 2,439.3 thefts per 100,000 residents.

"The Department of Veterans Affairs announced a major new step to protect Veterans' Second Amendment rights. Effective immediately, VA will not report Veterans to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's National Instant Criminal Background Check System as 'prohibited persons' only because they need help from a fiduciary in managing their VA benefits."

Read that carefully. The prior policy treated a veteran who needed someone to help manage benefit payments the same way the federal government treats convicted felons and the adjudicated mentally ill. The veteran didn't commit a crime. The veteran wasn't found by a court to be a danger. The veteran asked for help writing checks.

The practice had been in place for decades. A veteran could lose a limb, suffer a traumatic brain injury, or return home with PTSD, and the moment the VA appointed a fiduciary to help manage that veteran's benefits, the government quietly added a name to the same database used to stop felons from buying guns.

No law was passed with their names on it. A bureaucratic process simply treated financial assistance as evidence of mental deficiency, and NICS did the rest. Pam Bondi stopped it. [VA News]

The top destructive lie by Democrats --the border is secure

ESPN’s Smith Says Trump Was Right to Secure Border

Calls Out Biden for Lying About Crisis

For years, conservatives were warning anyone who would listen about the catastrophe unfolding at our southern border. For years, the mainstream media and Democratic politicians dismissed them as xenophobes and fear-mongers.

Nothing to see here, they insisted. The border is secure said Biden and Biden's Border Czar, Kamala. Go back to sleep, America.

Funny how things change. Now, one of the most recognizable personalities in sports media is saying something that might make his ESPN colleagues choke on their lattes. And what he’s admitting should make every American who was gaslit about this crisis feel more than a little vindicated.

From Breitbart:
“The borders needed to be closed. [Trump] was right to do that, but only because Biden opened them. Had Biden followed Barack Obama’s method and his plan, and what he did in deporting even more people than Trump did in his first term, you wouldn’t hear me saying that.

“But when you let anywhere from 12 to 15 million people cross the border illegally, swearing in our face, spitting in our face, while telling us it’s raining, figuratively speaking, by telling us there was no border crisis when clearly there was, emergency efforts were necessary.”

Stephen A. Smith is a man who has spent decades swimming in the mainstream media current just declared that President Trump was correct to secure the border. He also accused the Biden administration of flat-out lying to the American people about the mess they created.

Woman arrested by ICE - Overstayed her Visa by 10 years

On 18 March, 2025, Lashar Smith was apprehended by ICE agents at Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood International Airport for staying in the U. S. beyond her visa expiration date by more than ten years.

She was subsequently transferred to a detention facility in Baker County, Florida, and faced deportation proceedings under U.S. immigration law. Her partner, James Walkine, in a statement to the media, said that they were attempting to adjust her status through legal channels, but the process was hindered by bureaucratic delays.

I couldn't find any mainstream news sources which provide confirmation of the deportation outcome beyond the initial detention. Without official records (which for privacy reasons is not available to the public in individual immigration cases like this one), the facts at hand suggest that she might have been deported back in 2025. However, this is not confirmed.

As it turns out, her partner was also here illegally staying here beyond his Visa expiration date.

10% Global Tariff imposed on all countries

Trump Signs Order Imposing 10 Percent Global Tariff

President Donald Trump announced Friday that he has signed an executive order imposing a 10% global tariff on all countries, saying the measure will take effect "almost immediately."

Posting on Truth Social, Trump said it was his "Great Honor" to sign the order from the Oval Office, describing it as a "Global 10% Tariff on all Countries."

The move comes just hours after the Supreme Court struck down his earlier attempt to implement tariffs under emergency authorities.

In a second post, Trump sharply criticized the justices who ruled against his prior tariff plan.

"Those members of the Supreme Court who voted against our very acceptable and proper method of TARIFFS should be ashamed of themselves," he wrote. "Their decision was ridiculous but, now the adjustment process begins, and we will do everything possible to take in even more money than we were taking in before!"
