Bongino on Trump's speech
Imo, it's about a commie revolution. It's a war against America waged by communists. No doubt in my mind about this.

Extraordinary speech
Will anything be done about it???
Update:
Ace of Spades blog breaks it down.
How does Trump's critics and enemies ( what else would you call them?) respond to this???
Major networks refused to show the speech. Wrong answer.

The usual thing may resume soon
No mention was made, but I was dealing with jury stuff this past few days. Now that that is over, the regular scheduling can
resume.
While I'm here, a brief mention of the launchus interruptus yesterday. I'm so broken-hearted. What can I say?
Looks like they'll need to roll the booster back to MegaBay, and swap some engines. Maybe another static fire, re-stack, and launch again next week.
Trump had a speech last nite, but I didn't watch it. Maybe something will be done, but I'm not holding my breath.

Not the usual thing here
...mainly because there's nothing going on that I want to comment about.
Sometimes I write about the NFL, so this may be a good time to write about that. Preseason is right around the corner, and the team I follow, the Houston Texans, could be on the verge of a special season.
Of course, that all depends. It is also quite natural for this time of the year, to have an abounding optimism. Then, if not in actuality yet, but on paper, this Houston team could be pretty good this year.
The emphasis is on "paper". When something is on "paper", it doesn't necessarily show up on the field.
The 2024 and 2025 years were like that. On "paper" the Texans were pretty strong those years too. But it didn't happen those years.
What makes this year different? Maybe everything. Maybe nothing. That's what being "on paper" means. It has to be proven on the field. On paper, I like their moves. They solidified the weakest point on the team. They rebuilt the o-line. They've got some "pancake" guys, who are good at delivering pancake blocks. They've got some decent depth. But there's always a "but". The but is at right tackle, with two guys who are past their prime, and spend a lot of time on the shelf with injuries. The third guy up isn't all that good.
So things could go wrong there. Offense isn't likely their strong suit.
Defensively, the top-rated unit could be even stronger. They should be able to run the ball better. If they can improve enough that the offense doesn't lose games for them, they just might cruise to the Super Bowl with their defense and a strong supporting cast.
The defense is pretty talented and deep.
Defense and a good running game, plus an offense that takes care of the ball, is pretty hard combination to beat. That could be the kind of team that the Texans could have this year. As with all things, we shall see.

Four square against the Marxist paradigm
7/15/26: "Four square is a phrase that the sixties hippies like to use against the Establishment of that time. I'll borrow that script, but not the rest of it. I'm definitely "four square" against Marxists of all stripes, and at all times.
7/23/21: The original post follows below:
Just saw something over at Ace that reminds me that people must be stubborn, or just plain mentally lazy, or they are not what they seem to be.
Ace referred to himself as "right". Well, for the record, yours truly is not on "the right". The term "right" is in reference to the dialectic that I mentioned just the other day. If you are going to use a dialectic, don't use that one. That dialectic is the one that the commies like to use. Therefore, if commies use it, I won't use it.
Instead, I'll use the one that Reagan set forth in the speech that launched his career. That dialectic, which he didn't name as a dialectic, is one about freedom v. tyranny, as opposed to the one about left v. right. I'll rename it as freedom v. SLAVERY.
SLAVES ARE NOT FREE. Leftist regimes ARE NOT FREE. If we set the argument up as FREEDOM VERSUS SLAVERY, then the only ones favoring SLAVERY are the leftists themselves. Those on the side of FREEDOM cannot lose. Who would, if they had the choice, choose to be a slave?
Leftists love for you to label yourselves as on the "right" because they can call you fascist, and like Hitler. It is a dumb trap to let yourselves fall into to allow that. Don't use it. Those who do aren't going to be trusted by yours truly anymore. Either there's something wrong upstairs, as in "nobody's home", or you're trying to pull something on me. I'm not going to buy anything you sell if you keep doing that.
Ronald Reagan's 1964 speech
Look for it at the 4 minute mark.

Secretary Rubio Warns ICC Not to Challenge U.S. Sovereign Power
CTH
Comment:
The ICC is actually committing an act of War against America. The response should be clear... Americans who align with the so-called ICC are traitors.
