The New GOP Survey Analysis of Americans Overall, Today’s Republican Coalition, and the Minorities of MAGA

https://manhattan.institute/article/the-new-gop-survey-analysis-of-americans-overall-todays-republican-coalition-and-the-minorities-of-maga

There are some disturbing findings in here about “New Entrant” Republicans, which make up 29% in the survey. (These would be mostly Gen Z, but also independents turned Republican.)

“The picture that emerges is one of a GOP with a solid, cohesive core and a younger, ideologically unstable outer ring — a coalition that is broader than any Republican coalition in recent memory, but also more internally contradictory and harder to manage.”

‘No US Citizens’: Meet the IT Firms Discriminating Against Americans

Washington Free Beacon finds many examples of job postings for jobs in the US that exclude all Americans from applying. “No USC or GC.” They only want H1Bs. (I wonder — gotta be Gurajati?)

Meta (Facebook) lost $70 billion on their virtual reality division over several years.
So Zuck slashed the budget for that division.
When Wall Street heard the news, Meta’s stock price jumped by $70 billion ?!

The Greatest Second Amendment Victory in a Century | Jason Smith, December 4, 2025

Starting Jan. 1, 2026, the $200 federal tax stamp and the $200 manufacturer or “making” tax on short-barrel shotguns, short-barrel rifles and firearm suppressors will be eliminated. That means Americans who choose to exercise their Second Amendment rights will no longer face a government-imposed financial penalty. I wrote this provision into the bill because the Second Amendment is not for sale, and it should never carry a price tag.

To understand the importance of this change, one needs to understand its history. In 1934, Congress slapped a $200 tax on short-barrel shotguns, short-barrel rifles and suppressors. The purpose was simple. Washington sought to discourage ordinary Americans from exercising their constitutional right to defend themselves. It worked. For decades, only the wealthy or the most determined could afford to pay the tax or navigate the long and complicated process for these arbitrarily short firearms or suppressors designed to protect their hearing.

The rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution belong to every American regardless of income or tax bracket. Our constitutional rights should never be privileges for the wealthy. They are freedoms that must be protected from government overreach. These rights are secured by our right to keep and bear arms.

This song represents the Drive- By media. This was when those Boomers who are now in there late 60s and 70s wanted freedom of speech and thought. And yet many have fallen prey to the Woke.

“I’m The Slime”

I am gross and perverted
I’m obsessed ‘n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I’m the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you

I may be vile and pernicious
But you can’t look away
I make you think I’m delicious
With the stuff that I say
I’m the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I’m the slime oozin’ out
From your TV set

You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don’t need you
Don’t go for help… no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold

That’s right, folks…
Don’t touch that dial

Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’ room floor

I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, lookit me go

I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’ room floor

I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, lookit me go

Wake up late, honey, put on your clothes
And take your credit card to the liquor store
Well, that’s one for you and two for me by tonight

3 Bottom Lines On Our Military shooting Up Illegal Drug Shipments.

1. Drugs that destroy the lives of Americans don’t get into America.

2. People who sell drugs to Americans are justly punished without the legal folderol of our court system.

3. Liberals who cry over killing drug runners, and, who don’t prosecute or jail drug runners, are revealed as not caring about the suffering and personal lives destroyed by drugs.

To quote a Vietnam era T-Shirt, “Kill ‘em all. Let God sort ‘em out.”

Anyway be aware boomers will keep voting for extremism and totalitarianism. Too many of them are just destructive.

If Somalis stole $8bln from the US (that we know of so far), then the US owns 57% of Somalia’s GDP for the next year or until paid back. That makes us majority stakeholders who get to make ALL the decisions there until the debt is cleared.
