Imagine a healthcare worker threatening to inflict harm on her patients because of their work.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Another brainwashed has been fired and her medical licence suspended in Florida .She made a vile statement about WH Spox , Leavitt who is pregnant
Alexis Lawler, who was recently fired from Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital, is now using the chaos in Minnesota to shield herself from accountability. She dismissed the outrage over her own words as people "coming after her for bad language," completely ignoring the reality that she wished permanent bodily harm on a patient.

Her original comments were nothing short of demonic. As a medical professional, she stated it gave her "great joy" to wish a "fourth-degree tear" on Leavitt, hoping she would "never shit normally again." This is the person who was trusted with the lives of mothers and newborns.

Lawler’s claim that she is "on the right side of this" suggests she believes her political hatred justifies violating the most basic ethical standards of the medical field. She continues to use profanity-laced tirades to defend a position that most sane Americans find predatory and unhinged.


The hatred is mainly fueled by the media.

Anti-ICE protests continue in Minnesota over illegal migrant criminals being detained and deported.
Those protests often turn into riots - intensified by the deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Good - two armed agitators who were k*lled by federal agents.

(Pretti had a 9mm, while Good allegedly used her SUV as a weapon when she allegedly tried to run over an agent)

However, many are pointing out that there were no protests, no riots and no democrat press conferences when young American citizens were killed at the hands of illegal migrants.
Here are a few of the many victims of migrant crime:

The Commie mayor of New York has determined the city is on a financial crisis worse than 2008. Solution..increase taxes in the rich and profitable companies.

🚨 BREAKING: Mayor Mamdani Warns of Great Recession Scale Economic Collapse in NYC 🚨

New York City is bracing for a financial earthquake. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has officially declared that the city is facing a fiscal crisis "greater than the Great Recession," signaling a radical shift in the city's economic policy. 🏛️🏙️📉

Mayor Mamdani stated bluntly that NYC is entering a fiscal emergency at a scale not seen since 2008, requiring "every single avenue" to address the shortfall.

The Mayor’s primary solution is a massive tax hike, specifically "raising taxes on the wealthiest New Yorkers and the most profitable corporations."

Mamdani also called for "recalibrating the relationship with the state" to secure more funding for the city's failing budget.

Critics are labeling the plan as "classic commie math"—taxing the very producers who fuel the economy until they flee the city, leaving the remaining taxpayers to foot the bill.

Many warn that Mamdani’s approach is a "ride to bankruptcy," as the city’s wealthiest residents and companies have already begun looking for the exit.

This fiscal collapse follows the pattern of "professionalized" radicalism seen in cities like Minneapolis, where radical leaders use social and financial crises to push anti-capitalist agendas.

Supporters of the administration are already warning New Yorkers to "demand receipts" when Mamdani inevitably tries to blame the President for the city's self-inflicted financial wounds.

While Mamdani pushes for higher taxes, the federal mandate remains focused on economic growth, which currently sits at 5.5%—a reality that contrasts sharply with NYC's "Great Recession" narrative.

Common sense, voters get the leaders they deserve.

Maybe Maduro has provided info that Dominion machines helped steal 2020.

There was fraud in Georgia. A state body withheld exculpatory evidence as Trump witch-hunt expanded. Logically, no judge should have allowed any case arising out of 2020 elections fraud without ordering the prosecutor to first prove beyond reasonable doubt that Trump and his co-accused had no grounds to reject the results.
As it happened, they all conspired to take him down,from judges,to prosecutors to Republicans to Democrats to media to bloggers .....

Joe Biden received an upsurge of votes in Georgia as Ruby and her daughter were left triple counting ballots.

While US debt load is worrying, bear in mind that ALMOST ALL developed countries are in a debt crisis. It's a global phenomenon created by FIAT MONEY. France, UK, Canada, China, Japan, Nigeria, Argentina, they're all in debt. Even Saudi Arabia's finances aren't looking too good. Right now, at this moment, the developed country most at risk for default is FRANCE. As of 2023 Nigeria, the land of Melanin Magical Intellect, was spending 90% of government revenue on INTEREST PAYMENTS, very likely that it's still using over 75% today

1) I suspect ...it's likely....USA debt will be monetized away, as in there will be measures taken to gradually reduce the value of the debt by printing more dollars, or put another way, the debt will be paid by printing more money. This is what should have been done during Covid, instead liberals and progressives insisted on giving the money away to all and sundry.

2) The money can be paid down or reduced if the USA continues to generate strong economic growth AND reduces government spending, especially non-productive entitlement spending. That's why it's important to EDUCATE the people so they select conservatives or libertarians who believe in small government.

* New technologies like robotics, autonomous transport vehicles, quantum & bio computers, cryptocurrencies will generate new wealth for all countries.

* New sources of energy are on the way. There will be VASTLY CHEAPER energy available in the next 2 or 3 generations, maybe a decade.

* Space exploration is a wildcard, who knows what will be found out there by the White Man & Yellow Man. A few decades from now Black Africans will be begging for visa to Mars and the moon.

* USA can conquer and loot other countries like say Venezuela and Nigeria.

3) Crypto-currencies and precious metal as money will play some role in resolving the WORLDWIDE debt crisis. The USA is already in the lead in this effort.... it's as important to the survival of the Republic as the Slavery Question and also the ideological contest against the Soviet Union or Communism in general.

Even as they enjoy the benefits of free market capitalism, political liberals, progressives and socialists are always hoping and working for the destruction of the Anglo-Saxons. They should worry more about Black African countries that can't keep their electricity grids on for a full month without it crashing, where major cities have 7% potable water access and life expectancy is less than 60, where people lose their lives for voting in elections and corruption is an accepted part of public culture.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

US Debt. Is a crisis exacerbated by Democrat policies. One of the biggest is Obamacare designed to increase govt spending every year. Another is their vote buying socialist expenditures. Jerome Powell adds to debt by maintaining high fed rates,the converse is unknown but at 0% level annual interest payment of $970 billion would reduce.

Energy costs.A primary driver of demand is the power hungry Nvidia chips used to train LLMs by big tech. They are now installing their own power generation units,as opposed to getting it from the grid. Who increase domestic consumer prices.A 500MW data centre uses that almost 24 hours unlike normal usage which peaks when everyone is cooking for example but goes down after midnight. Big tech is repurposing nuclear plants closed by democrats under the excuses of global warming and any other excuse they use to send manufacturing to China.

Space will be beneficial if they can use satellites to process big data . Should be insignificant,the ISS only generates about 215KW, while tier 3 data centres need 500 -1000MW.

In short liberal policies are designed to reduce the wealth of the west. I won't mention their freebies to immigrants for now.

Grok summary of this phone.

Key red flags (all major inconsistencies):
Reports Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 but with 10 CPU cores — real Snapdragon 888 has exactly 8 cores (1× Cortex-X1 + 3× A78 + 4× A55), confirmed across official Qualcomm specs, benchmarks, and every legitimate device using it.
Baseband version (MOLY.WR8.W1315...) is an old MediaTek modem string (from ~2013–2015 era, used in cheap MT65xx chips like MT6582/MT6592). Genuine Snapdragon 888 phones use Qualcomm's X60 modem with different naming—no "MOLY" prefix.
Kernel version 3.10.65 is extremely outdated (~2014–2015), common in low-end or fake phones. Real Snapdragon 888 devices use much newer kernels (typically 4.x or 5.x series), even on Android 13 updates.
Build number (Y93E1_DX_N89_WELCOME_FWA_ER281_M01) doesn't match any known real phone model from major brands—likely from a cheap Chinese clone/fake firmware.
Android 13 on such an ancient kernel + mismatched hardware + old 2024-01-01 security patch is impossible for a legitimate high-end device.

This is a classic fake: cheap (likely MediaTek-based) hardware spoofing flagship specs in settings to deceive buyers



Western countries would never allow dealers to import and resell that kind of garbage phones.

Meta Facebook parent company plans to build Hyperion an AI data centre with a power consumption of 5GW.
Nigerian has an installed capacity of around 14GW. The maximum peak power demand recorded from the grid is 5.8GW

Data centres esp AI typically use constant power 24/7 .

Good news. Nigeria peak power demand is estimated to be over 20 - 120 GW. Everything above what the grid supplies is from generators and other sources.
In other words,there is 10 times demand for power than can be supplied from the grid.
(Which can't run the Meta data center)

You think this is good decision?

The Trump administration has rescinded a Biden-era rule that forced pharmacies to dispense abortion pills. This is a move hailed by pro-life advocates as a victory for religious freedom and conscience rights. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced the decision Tuesday, repealing guidance issued in 2022 that required pharmacies receiving federal funding to stock and dispense abortion-inducing drugs....

If I owned a pharmacy,I would not sell such withour a prescription from a Doctor. That is, if I was forced at gunpoint to stock it in the first place.

@dcopechatter
The parents of Alex Pretti say their son quit his hospital job months ago and had shown “unusual behavior” recently. “He seemed to have joined some kind of group. We warned him two weeks ago — protest if you want, but don’t engage, don’t do anything stupid,” his father, Michael Pretti, told reporters. “He said he understood.” But it wasn’t until police pulled messages from Alex’s phone that the truth began to emerge — and what investigators found.

It seems that Pretti's parents didn't want him participating. It seems Pretti allegedly scrubbed his social media presence one day prior to his actions leading to his death. When you make decisions based on emotions, you make poor decisions. He made bad decisions.

I’m a 2A absolutist. You have a right to carry, not a privilege.

But rights come with restrictions, you need your ID & permit on you. Reports say Pretti had neither.

He wasn’t carrying legally.i

Need I add that Alex took part on the 2020 George Floyd protests?

Japan in the 1980's was going to overtake the USA

We heard the same cries of VICTORY when the European Union became a formal free trade market or single currency in 1990. I remember reading a special National Georgraphic magazine printed especially to celebrate the Eurozone, how the USA finally had a mighty rival destined to supplant American hegemony.

What's the story since then? Their GDP was equal to the USA at the time, go take a look now.

The basic problem with Europe, India, China and most other places is lack of FREEDOM, that's all. Too much government, too much control. That's the secret sauce of the USA.... limited government.

The real problem with the USA right now is EXCESSIVE DIVERSITY combined with LIMITED GOVERNMENT, that's what will undermine the USA, they can't control their minorities with the kind of government they have.

Look at Canada, that country is already 30% foreign born, it's likely to look like India in two or three generations if they continue with their socialist madness. In this regard I believe the UK has the best chance of survival, they have no Constitution, the majority population can do ANYTHING they want. That's how Denmark has put a stop to all this nonsense .

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Methinks America main problem is power hungry Washington DC politicians.
In the days of Clinton and Bush the country largely accepted election results and moved on. At the time both Democrat and Republicans had the same goal in mind , America dominance.
After 2009 the focus seems to have shifted to personality cults where the president could do no wrong.
In 2016 the status quo was jolted by the election of Trump.
The need by democrats to promote every grievance group in exchange of power took hold.
The fifth column openly took sides, being a conduit to bring down the "evil one".
In 2020 the democrats regained power and proceeded to create a permanent voting block.
I've never been to America,and a lot think I support Trump blindly.No He shares many values as I do on my pet subjects like nationalism and climate change . I fear if America empire is replaced by China ,the world will be worse off.

Ok..

The expert has his take.
@Schwalm5132

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.

What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.

Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.

This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.

The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.

I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.

Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.

We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.

Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil
