Great scene from a great movie

So, the character says he will never be on the wrong side again. But he gets tricked later on, and this is what gets William Wallce captured. So, his father noted what he said in this scene, and found a way to trick him so that Wallace could be eliminated. What came later was another scene in which he confronts his father about the trick that got Wallace captured.

His father replies, "you let yourself be deceived". Indeed, that is how deception works. If you let yourself be deceived, then it will happen. Deception depends upon that happening.

Easy to promise to not do (or not do) something, but much harder to actually accomplish it.

Pres. Trump calls communism the biggest threat to America since its founding

Liberty Daily on Rumble

Promethean Action video.

Summary and short discussion:

Trump is pushing the American system of Alexander Hamilton, which produced the wealth that so many have taken for granted. The America's enemies have pushed the "culture war" that makes American citizens hate their own country, so that there won't be a will to fight.

Comment:

It amazes me how much negativism there is on the so-called "right". Anybody who uses that term ( Veep Vance did ) loses a lot of credibility with yours truly. We are definitely not out of the woods by any stretch of the imagination. There needs to be an American system that survives into the future, or the commies will continue to undermine our country. Trump is right.

Les Miserables musical, Thenadier

The couple who kept Cosette for her mother, Fantine. The couple get to sing in the musical version of the Victor Hugo novel.

Wishbone mentioned it, and so here it is.

There are several versions of this movie on Tubi. There's one with Richard Jordan as Valjean, another with Liam Neeson as Valjean, and the one I was watching earlier today. It is not a Hollywood production, and I don't know this actor.

Wishbone says it was taught while he was in school. When I got there a few years later, it wasn't being taught. Who knows what is taught in schools these days. The commies slipped those weenies in slowly so that folks wouldn't notice it so much. It's like the little froggie in the pan that gets boiled as the heat is turned up slowly so that the froggie can jump out when it got too hot.

Firebell in the night

Here's a stab at a polished up essay regarding the current political events transpiring in the past week. It may be a bit spicy for some. I ran it through the AI for historical accuracy and it seems to pass muster.

Spelling and grammar corrections came next, with the somewhat polished version of it, plus the added pdf of the historical analysis mentioned.

Proof this one please:

The “firebell in the night” historical reference strikes again.

Read up on your history if you dare. The series of bad policy decisions in Washington DC led up to Civil War in the nineteenth century. Is history repeating itself? It could be the case with the lack of action in Congress, with regard to the SAVE ACT, and very questionable Supreme Court decisions.

Historical example: The Dred Scott decision. This was a pivotal decision from the Supreme Court in the pre-Civil War days. That from the Court of that time that galvanized sectionalist division.

Toss in the Kansas-Nebraska Act in order to complete the witches-brew that led to "Bleeding Kansas" and the war. Thos kind of policy errors brought upon the nation the tragedy of Civil War back then, and similar policy errors mentioned are the same kind of divisiveness being repeated today. Will history repeat first as tragedy then as farce? The farce is the witches brew of fraud. Will the fraud be exposed? Will the message be heard?

Don’t count me optimistic that kind of prudence will materialize. The nation will be gas-lighted into oblivion by the propaganda masters in the fake new media. Ordinary folks are not immune from a campaign of lies and fraud. That was demonstrated throughout the COVID madness. If gas-lighting doesn’t do the trick, ballot harvesting can fill in the gaps. We've seen that one too, with the phonied up election of 2020, and the false flag "insurrection" false narratives that spewed forth from the January 6th 2021 righteous protest.

Folks may say that this is alarmist. But that’s the kind of tactics the gas-lighters will take in the fake news media. It shouldn’t work, but it could get part of the way there. The way towards totalitarianism and war was paved with the court decision to enable voter fraud. If the Congress won’t act to stop voter fraud now, the die will be cast. The fraudsters will counter with ‘save our Democracy” bravo sierra. Fraud will be THEIR King. The people's freedom will be the losers.

The “firebell” has sounded. Are the people too blinded to see, or too complacent to act decisively and in time? I shudder at what could be coming our way.

There are a lot of videos like this

7/1/26

Are things improving in Canuckistan? Not any time soon. Maybe not at all.

Am I being too mean to the poor darlings?

That's the trouble. They've lived the soft life for so long, they don't know what real hardship is. Their "leaders" won't help them do anything but go straight down the drain.

Maybe Alberta will save themselves, but I wouldn't bet money on it.

7/31/25; the original post follows:

One thing is certain, Canada has a problem. It's likely to get worse.

The video was taken down. Too bad. So sad. Nobody is losing money here. If they're losing money, it's because of their own mistakes.

Sixteen Tons Tennessee Ernie Ford, Andy Williams and Annette Funicello

Do all these belong together? This is like wearing a red sock and a blue sock. Or wearing three socks. But where does that third sock go? Uh, oh...

The Warm Embrace of Communism

Reaction to the Powerline article titled "Socialism Kills"

Summary:

Bill Glahn discusses the Venezuelan catastrophic earthquake damage, and points out that the Mamdami's much admired "warm embrace" of communism certainly didn't help the Venezuelan people weather this earthquake very well.

Comment:

  Supposedly, the polls say that the younger generation favors socialism. Maybe they ought to try seeing these places up close and personal before deciding that jumping into bed with these monsters is a good idea.

  Just to be clear, I don't believe these polls anymore. The reason is that polls can be screwed with, just like just about anything else.

  Not only can polls be tampered with in the usual manner, but if someone has a bad attack of integrity, they can be "persuaded" to change their minds to the "correct" opinion. These are communist tactics. Of course, we're not supposed to say that these days. But I'll write it here every chance I get.

  Eventually, if I become troublesome enough, they may come after me.

  Hopefully I'll be strong enough to withstand their tactics. If so, they may resort to more drastic measures. Like they did in Arkansas.

  We have a very gullible population. They'll fall for anything. Of course, when they don't, they can always be persuaded with an iron fist. That is something Iran's citizens found out when they became too troublesome.

  The "warm embrace" may be the blood oozing from the wound just delivered to remind you to mind your tongue.

  The young may be forgiven because they don't know any better. Women might be forgiven because they are the weaker sex. But if you are a man, what is your excuse?

  Many of them are deciding that they are female.
